Nick Saban’s Alabama Crimson Tide pulled a rabbit out of a hat against Auburn Saturday evening.
The Crimson Tide pulled off an unreal 4th and goal touchdown from the 30-yard line to score the go-ahead touchdown and take a 27-24 lead.
Saban spoke to reporters following the game:

Saban said that Week 13’s escape over the Tigers is a “reality check” for next week’s SEC Championship matchup against Georgia. The Crimson Tide are still in the running for the CFP after a miracle win Saturday night.

Ultimately, Saban kept his postgame presser brief. “It was an unbelievable game,” that’s the only way to describe it.
