That last Tide touchdown

The daily’s sportswriter Kirk Bohls has it right. That last Alabama touchdown, with 1:48 left to play in the BCS championship game last week, was a classic example of running-up-the-score. They were already ahead by 10 points.

It was a classless gotcha statement by the Tide’s humorless, arrogant coach Nick Saban: unnecessary, mean-spirited and disrespectful to Texas and the game.  I admit I didn’t find it surprising at the time, however. From what I had seen of him, I knew Saban was something of a jerk.

Meanwhile, Tide fans already were on the defensive. Heh. Get used to it.

  1. Hmm… Saban sounds like a perfect Israeli surname. Arrogant matches too.

    Doesn’t look Israeli, though.

  2. Doubt it. But I don’t know much about him except his demeanor on the sidelines. He’s not a smiler.
