Nick Saban has a different sort of task this week. Instead of preparing his team for a game where many expected it to lose, a 2:30 p.m. CBS game in College Station against Texas A&M,, Saban discussed how he has tried to keep his players mindset steady, whether national perception of the Crimson Tide is as a national title contender, or a dead dynasty, depending on the week.
Saban explained that he wants his team to bring that mindset practice, noting how many pro scouts come watch the Tide prepare for games. He said those scouts are looking for a reason not to pick players, so Alabama’s need to do things right all the time.“If you bench press 180 pounds, and your goal to bench press 300 pounds, you don’t want to stop when you get to 250,” Saban said.
“We just try to get the players to understand that when your feet hit the ground on Saturday, because it’s an early game, you gotta be ready to go,” Saban said. “Your whole thought process has to change. You gotta speed it up. You don’t have the same sort of routine that you normally would go through to play in an afternoon or night game, so this is really important that players understand that, so you get off to a good start in games like this.
