WATCH: Brad Nessler discusses what makes other SEC programs ‘jealous’ of Alabama

In the past nine seasons, Alabama has won an incredible five national titles, becoming the envy of teams across the country.
Indeed, the Tide have been so dominant that teams are trying to mimic the program coach Nick Saban runs, hiring away Alabama assistants and doing what they can to try to emulate Alabama’s success.
During Wednesday’s episode of “Reiter’s Block” with Ben Reiter, CBS announcer Brad Nessler revealed what makes other programs jealous of the Tide, as you can see in the video below:

“I think they’re all jealous, for sure,” Nessler says. “They’re jealous of the facilities. They’re jealous of the success he’s had. They’re jealous of all the rings he’s got sitting around his office. They’re jealous that he’s not going to retire very soon. That’s the way it is.”
The Georgia Bulldogs are perhaps the SEC team closest to the Tide right now, as Kirby Smart (a former Alabama defensive coordinator) is building a juggernaut in Athens. For now, though, it’s Alabama’s world, and we’re all just living in it.
