Saban: My question, should we allow football to be a continuous game? Also, more plays players play, are there safety issues? #SECMediaDays

Saban now being very cautious about commenting on high-tempo offenses. Not like prior "dangerous" comments. Bret Bielema will be very mad,

Saban, as always, says he's not worthy of Bear Bryant comparisons. Says no one should be compared to Bryant.

by Kevin Scarbinsky via twitter 7/18/2013 4:38:34 PM
Saban says there will never be an "equal path" to championship for all SEC teams "unless everybody plays everybody." Which can't happen.

"I understand what Les Miles is talking about (regarding schedules). I coached at LSU. We played Florida every year too." -- Saban

by AJC UGA via twitter 7/18/2013 4:40:51 PM
Saban: "I understand where Les Miles is coming from. I was at LSU and played Florida every year. If anyone understands I understand."

#Bama HC Nick Saban: Are there safety issues with playing so many plays per game? Don't know the answers but should be asked. #SECMediaDays

Saban: the most important thing in the schedule is that every player play every team during his college career #SECMediaDays

by Mackenzie Thirkill via twitter edited by Ray Cox, AJC 7/18/2013 4:43:35 PM
I'm sure that Saban, with that "I coached at LSU" blast, in no way intended to remind everyone that he built the house Miles now lives in.

by Kevin Scarbinsky via twitter 7/18/2013 4:43:52 PM
Saban's right on as usual as he lobbies for a 9-game SEC schedule. If he ran the SEC, as some think, wouldn't it already be in place?

by Kevin Scarbinsky via twitter 7/18/2013 4:46:43 PM
Saban on Kickoff game: These games make our scheduling easier. Difficult to sked home-and-home games with these teams. #SECMediaDays

Saban on LSU: They are a lot like us in terms of style, its like two heavy weights going toe-to-toe #SECMediaDays

by Mackenzie Thirkill via twitter edited by Ray Cox, AJC 7/18/2013 4:49:23 PM
It's almost as if Nick Saban woke up this morning and said "I want to trend on Twitter today". #SECMediaDays

by MeetBallTheApp via twitter 7/18/2013 4:49:32 PM
Saban: There are a lot of former players from LSU that I'll call and talk to. #SECMediaDays

by jmedley_star via twitter 7/18/2013 4:52:07 PM
Saban: Most of the guys who ever played for me know that I will always be there for them, even ones from LSU #SECMediaDays

by Mackenzie Thirkill via twitter 7/18/2013 4:52:15 PM
Saban: You can be the best teacher in the world but someone still may cheat on the test #SECMediaDays

RT @BlairKerkhoff: Saban on uptempo : "Should we allow FB to be a continuous game? NFL averages 64 plays a game, college 80..There are safe…

Saban: In current CFB world, Alabama will continue to play games vs. FCS teams, although fans probably don't want it.

by Jon Solomon via twitter 7/18/2013 4:52:54 PM
Saban reiterates his support for SEC playing nine conference games. He was only one of 14 coaches in favor at spring meetings in Destin.

by AJC UGA via twitter edited by Ray Cox, AJC 7/18/2013 4:53:22 PM
Saban on playing FCS: As long as we get 10 quality opponents on our schedule. #SECMediaDays

by jmedley_star via twitter edited by Ray Cox, AJC 7/18/2013 4:53:27 PM
Saban: Its not just about what the coach wants to do its about the business of college football #SECMediaDays

by Mackenzie Thirkill via twitter 7/18/2013 4:53:52 PM
by Nick de la Torre via twitter 7/18/2013 4:55:00 PM
Saban gives annual thanks for media coverage. No word if that translates to letting coaches/freshmen talk.

by Jon Solomon via twitter 7/18/2013 4:55:45 PM
#UGA TE Artie Lynch on Jadeveon Clowney: "He’s a once-in-a-lifetime-type player. But does that mean he can’t be blocked? No.” #SECMediaDays

by AJC UGA via twitter 7/18/2013 4:56:02 PM
Mass exodus from the main room once Saban finishes speaking #SECMediaDays

by Mike Kucharski via twitter 7/18/2013 4:56:04 PM
Saban says he doesn't think he should be compared to Bear Bryant: "Bear Bryant was the greatest coach in college football." #SECMediaDays

Saban: We can be the moral compass for our people, but we can't always be there to drive the ship #SECMediaDays

by Mackenzie Thirkill via twitter edited by Ray Cox, AJC 7/18/2013 5:41:58 PM
Saban: In NFL, every team you play is in NFL. If we could define top conferences and play only them, I'd be fine with that. #SECMediaDays
