Nick Saban sees growth from Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson

ORLANDO, FL - Jim Harbaugh and Nick Saban took to the podium on Tuesday morning as the head coaches of the Michigan Wolverines and Alabama Crimson Tide previewed Wednesday’s Citrus Bowl matchup. Much was said about what both teams bring to the table, but there is a unique storyline in this game featuring the quarterback situation.

Shea Patterson previously played Alabama when he was the starter at Ole Miss and as he said earlier this week, “It didn’t exactly go my way.” Patterson and the Rebels lost that game 66-3 and he went 14-of-29 for 165 yards and two interceptions in the contest.
