Nick Saban and Alabama had their hands full with Texas a year ago, needing a field goal to win 20-19 in Austin.

This time, the scene shifts to Tuscaloosa, the final year before Steve Sarkisian and the Longhorns join the Crimson Tide in the SEC.

Last year’s game was an even affair, with Bryce Young and the Tide eventually getting the better of the Longhorns. What can Alabama expect for this one?

For Saban, it will be a tough battle.

“I told the players after today, ‘You better get ready for a street fight. You’re gonna have to punch them. They’re gonna punch you,” he said during his “Hey Coach” radio show on Thursday. “But it’s who can grind it out for 60 minutes in the game. Adversity breaks some people and makes some people break.”

We’ll see who will have the ultimate edge in this “street fight” on Saturday in primetime. Kickoff is at 7 p.m. ET on Saturday and will be on ESPN.
