I view Saban as arguably the best all-time NCAA football coach considering the seven titles in the modern era. Those are undisputed titles too although 2003 was a split with USC. LSU still won the BCS game. So we could say 6.5 titles.
If Kirby Smart wins this year, that will be 3 titles at age 48 while Saban didn’t win his first until age 53. Smart played for Georgia too so he’s not going anywhere.
I found that interesting. Anyone have a different coach that they think is the best all-time? Do you think Smart ends up with more titles than Saban?
Also Georgia Tech played Georgia pretty tight yesterday. They were effective running the ball against Georgia with a 4.7 yards per carry average. That’s something ND has had a tough time doing against top tier opponents. Sometimes its just good game planning and scheming to make up for a talent disparity.
