Alabama Head Coach Nick Saban compares Joe Milton to Hendon Hooker ahead of Saturday’s game

At 71 years old, Nick Saban is undoubtedly one of the best college coaches ever. He’s piled up an astounding 280-70-1 win-loss record, and he’s been dominant for 20-plus years now with 11 SEC West crowns and seven national titles since 2001.

Ahead of the Third Saturday in October, Saban met with the media to discuss a bevy of topics, including Tennessee’s ability to run the ball, along with how Vols’ Head Coach Josh Heupel’s scheme makes the tough get going come game time.

“They certainly make you defend 53 yards wide of the field,” Saban said.
