The sports world erupted Saturday when the top four teams going to the College Football Playoff were announced. The decision left undefeated ACC champion Florida State out of the Playoff and one-loss SEC champion Alabama as the No. 4 team. Apparently, this resulted in Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban getting an earful from Seminoles fans on his personal phone.
During Alabama’s awards banquet Sunday night, Saban told his players that his phone number had leaked online and he has been getting nonstop calls, per Rivals.
“I’ve had probably over 250 anonymous callers today, calling me every name in the book, talking about how we shouldn’t be in the Playoff,” Saban told his players in a video obtained by TideIllustrated. “So we still have naysayers out there. We still have players who don’t believe in us.”
