Remember when Nick Saban came out with his “Rat Poison” speech?
It was classic Saban, as he took his team’s accolades during another great season and turned them into a negative.
The former Alabama head coach coined the phrase “Rat Poison” to hound media for handing out too much praise to the Crimson Tide a few years back, causing his team to become complacent and not play up to their standard.
At least that is how he felt about it.
I have to image Dabo Swinney is telling his team not to eat the “rat poison” that is being dished up all around them these days.
