Alabama Football: Imitation is often unintentional flattery

Alabama football has experienced an incredible amount of success during the Nick Saban era. If you can’t beat them, join them, becomes the philosophy of opposing coaches. Even if it’s unintentional, it happens. We as Alabama football fans absolutely love it.

More and more we see former Nick Saban assistants as head men of college football teams. The similarities in style are bound to exist. In last night’s premiere of Training Days: Rolling With the Tide, Nick Saban made reference to other schools following the Alabama football process.

No other team has quite mastered the imitation as well as the University of Georgia.
