Nick Saban comments on Bryant-Denny Stadium's new LED light show
Alabama finally got a night kickoff in Week 8, giving the school an opportunity to show off its new LED light system at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Fans in attendance for Saturday night’s Alabama-Tennessee game certainly noticed the lights change color and sync to music. College football fans watching on TV probably noticed that the broadcast of the Third Saturday in October game had a different brightness and color temperature to it than many of Saturday’s other college football games. After the Crimson Tide’s win over the Volunteers, coach Nick Saban shared his thoughts on the new lights.
“I kinda liked the lights and all that. I know somebody’s going to ask me that,” Saban said in the opening statement of his press conference. “As long as they’ve got the good ones on when we’re playing, I’m good. They seem to do a pretty good job of choreographing all that.”
Alabama will get to show off the lights again next Saturday when Alabama hosts Arkansas. Kickoff for that game is set for 6 p.m. CT.
Anything.
I’ll take anything, except anything, do anything to get people’s attention again.
What do we have to do to get players to want to come to Alabama again? It’s like everyone is tired of us and no one wants to play for us anymore.
The fallout was obvious on the field last night and going forward we are on our way down.
It stinks.
What are you talking about? They haven’t had any problem at all getting people to come play at Alabama. There hasn’t been a year in which alabama’s Recruiting class was considered outside the top 5 of all teams with the exception of one year in the last 10…and even that year they were inside the top 5 in most recruiting rankings. I don’t fully understand how they don’t have atleast a couple more seasoned lb’s and offensive lineman this year than they do regardless of injuries but still…that’s more of an inventory issue with staffing than it is kids wanting to come and play. (Maybe I completely misunderstood you…I hope so anyways lol)
You said you noticed the evidence even if you don’t see how it’s happening.
Our football team has become blaze`. Our Coach begged us to come to games. We had to install rock concert lights. Kids want to win something, not just be another cog in the machine. We won another championship? Who cares they say.
They want to play for other teams and beat us now.
It was obvious on the field last night that we are diminished greatly. Without Tua we are going no where. Saban is getting really old. He’s so old he doesn’t even bother to cover his gray up properly anymore. When the hair goes, so goes the moxy.
We are done. The days of yore are gone. Watch and see.
Hahaha the troll strikes again.
These new-aged players want on the field immediately. No 4-5 star will accept sitting 2-3yrs before they see the field. Has nothing to do with lights
You’re both replying to a troll account..
Arrrkkk, I am too right now, duma$$, arrrkk!
Not sure who “we” is. You are definitely not a Bama fan. Your statement that nobody wants to play at Bama shows that. A troll should be funny when stating such drivel.
It was a good run. We are done.
It’s goof ball. What else does one need to enhance the game day experience?
I was at the game Saturday night. It was way more impactful at the game than it was when I watched it later on TV. It cranked the whole game atmosphere up quite a bit.
They’re pretty cool. I’ve seen a few schools with them now. I’m sure even more will have them next year. I think it’s odd the NCAA allows them because of concussions. If a player is being evaluated on the side lines for a concussion lights sensitivity can actually make symptoms worse.
That’s what the sideline tent is for. Before that it was in the locker room.
