Typically Alabama likes to save the celebrations and festivities for the end of the season. But today is a special occasion. Not only is it Halloween but also the 68th birthday of head coach Nick Saban.
Ahead of a meeting on Thursday, the entire Alabama team decided to welcome Saban with a bang with singing, cupcakes and ofcourse golf.

Although Saban would rather focus on practice the coach couldn’t help but crack a smile when seeing the excitement from his team. Saban also took a humble approach to show appreciation for his party.
“Thanks for thinking of me on my birthday.”

Despite having a bye week and giving the team that Friday off, coach Saban is not the one to map out an entire day of birthday fun. That is left up to Miss Terry.
“It’s gonna be whatever Miss Terry tells me to do,” Saban said during his Wednesday press conference. “Which is usually how it is when I get time off. You know around here I get to tell people what to do aight, but when we’re off, I get told what to do. And I’m ok with that really. I think I’ll enjoy it for a day or two.”
