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.

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

Hmm… Saban sounds like a perfect Israeli surname. Arrogant matches too.
Doesn’t look Israeli, though.
