Nick Saban Shades Vanderbilt, Says Program Has Only SEC Stadium 'Not Hard to Play' At

Nick Saban may be retired, but the former Alabama head coach didn't hesitate to throw some shade at a former conference opponent.

During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show on Friday, Saban said he felt during his time with the Crimson Tide that Vanderbilt was the easiest environment to play in among SEC teams.

"The only place you're going to play in the SEC that's not hard to play, Vanderbilt. When you play at Vanderbilt, you have more fans there than they have, and that's no disrespect to them, it's the truth," Saban said (h/t Steve Samra of On3.com).
