Nick Saban picked Georgia and Texas to meet in the SEC Championship Game Monday live on SEC Now.
Saban made his SEC media day debut as an analyst in Dallas. The former Alabama football coach wasted no time giving his expertise, making a bold headline with his prediction for the 2024 SEC Championship game.
“I really like Texas,” Saban said. “I think Georgia’s got a really good team, but I believe in our Alabama team, too. I believe in Jalen Milroe. I just think the question marks in the secondary…until those get resolved, it’s hard to sort of jump on that bandwagon.”
This comes as a shock to many as Saban did not pick his former team.
