Greg McElroy, Benjamin Watson also make their picks on SEC Now set
ESPN sportscaster and former football coach Nick Saban speaks during the Southeastern Conference NCAA college football media days Monday, July 15, 2024, in Dallas. But as an ESPN college football analyst, doing so is a big part of his job.
“I believe in our Alabama team too and I believe in Jalen Milroe,” Saban said. “… I just think the question marks in the secondary, until those get resolved, it’s hard to sort of jump on that bandwagon.” “I know that it was ‘a lot to a little’ when they played Ole Miss last year, but I just look at that schedule … man, and possibly losing one and you lose the head-to-head and … basically that game’s worth a game-and-a-half, relative to getting the conference title game, that I think could be a challenge. I just think we need to pay a little more attention to how difficult that schedule is.”
“… I think Carson Beck, the continuity with him and Bobo is key offensively and then defensively while they may not have, as we talked about, some of the guys up front, I think their secondary is one of the best in the country.
