Quote (http://media.al.com/birmingham-news/photo/10275137-large.jpg) Alabama Coach Nick Saban gets angry when Alabama is forced to call a time out on the final drive of the Georgia Southern game at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Ala., Saturday Nov. 19, 2011. TUSCALOOSA, Alabama - Nick Saban has proven to be worth his weight in bronze. Alabama's 45-21 win over Georgia Southern on Saturday secured another 10-win season for the Crimson Tide, its fourth straight in Saban's fifth season. The Tide is 10-1 and will have at least two more games beginning at Auburn on Saturday and a bowl game in January. Last season, Alabama finished 10-3. In 2009, the Tide went 14-0 en route to winning the BCS national championship. And in 2008, Alabama went 12-2. Saban is now tied with Gene Stallings with four 10-win seasons at Alabama. Alabama's senior class set a new record for wins. The 2011 senior class has won 46 games since 2008, which surpassed the 45 wins of the 1994 seniors. |
