The most significant aspect now is who will grace the cover of the new game when it comes out. Of the names discussed, Nick Saban would be the most iconic. He recently retired from coaching after being the head man at the University of Alabama for 17 seasons. Saban guided the Crimson Tide to six national championships, nine Southeastern Conference Championships, and four Heisman Memorial Trophy winners. He made the Tide the gold standard for college football for nearly two decades.

Yahoo Sports created a cover of Saban on the new college football video game and fans loved it.

 

They reacted to the cover on social media, showing support that Saban should be on the cover.
