In an unexpected turn of events, the Indianapolis Colts and Chuck Pagano agreed to an extension, the Colts announced Monday night.

So, what does that have to do with SEC football?

Well, you can kill the Nick Saban to the Colts rumors now. According to an ESPN report last week, the Colts had already decided to fire Pagano, and everyone just knew that Nick Saban would be the target.

Not anymore.

Not that he cared anyway, but Saban won’t have to worry about questions and reports linking him to the Colts job any longer.

Saban and the Crimson Tide gear up for the College Football Playoff championship game against Clemson Monday night.
