Longhorns Daily News: Alabama’s Nick Saban: We expect Texas ‘to have an outstanding team’

When the Alabama Crimson Tide’s head coach Nick Saban speaks, the college football listens. (Sorry, Big Ten fans.) And that’s especially the case when he speaks about the Texas Longhorns.

“I think Texas has a lot of players back from last year’s team,” Saban said, according to Inside Texas. “Obviously it was a really close, tough game last year when we played that game. I think they are doing an outstanding job of recruiting and developing the players on their team and it’s going to be a real challenging game, no doubt, because they have a lot of starters back and they have a lot of experience coming back and an experienced quarterback.
