Dallas — Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio and Alabama coach Nick Saban met with the media for the final time before Thursday’s Cotton Bowl, and the questions, not surprisingly, tended to center around the relationship between the two.
Dantonio was loose, cracking a few jokes, while Saban was a bit more business-like.
However, it didn’t stop the former Michigan State coach from, once again, heaping praise on the current Michigan State coach.
“I think the world should recognize what a great job he’s done,” Saban said Wednesday.
Dantonio has not only won 11 games in five of the last six seasons, he now has No.
