With the complication of the Florida State Seminoles not getting selected for the College Football Playoffs, the judgment has somehow crept over to Alabama. Amid these trolls, head coach Nick Saban became a top target to criticize. If you knew what Saban had to deal with every day after his team clinched a playoff spot, you’d feel sorry for him. 

Alabama is a deserving CFP team with a solid performance throughout the season. However, their one loss is a deficit to FSU’s unbeaten record, which is one of the main reasons for the excessive trolls. See what Nick Saban has to say about the persistent judgment and negativity. 

Nick Saban reveals how naysayers troll him and Alabama

Considering that FSU ended the season with a better record than 12-1 Alabama, it is this head coach Nick Saban who has to receive all the trolls. In a recent discussion on The Pat McAfee Show on YouTube, the 72-year-old expresses his raw opinions on the trolls he’s been receiving. He said, “My phone’s been getting blown up from people who didn’t get in. As if I’m responsible for that.”

Nick Saban understands that this is a unique season and there are “lots of teams who could make an argument to say we should be there” for the playoffs. Recently, he also said that he receives over “250 anonymous callers” who say that Alabama shouldn’t be in the Playoffs. He commented, “So we still have naysayers out there. We still have players who don’t believe in us.”
