Nick Saban knows a thing or two about Alabama vs. Georgia .

He coached the Crimson Tide against the Bulldogs 10 times over his 17 seasons with UA. Plus, Georgia’s coached by his former apprentice, Kirby Smart .

That makes Saban’s opinion on the game more interesting than just about anyone else. He offered his take on the upcoming matchup during his weekly appearance on the Pat McAfee show .

“First of all, I think the line of scrimmage is going to be really important,” Saban said. “When Alabama has struggled, especially on the road, with some of these games last year and this year at Florida State, they had a hard time stopping the run. Kirby is going to be stubborn about running the ball because he doesn’t want to put his quarterback in situations where they can tee off on him.”
