Derrick Henry didn’t see the field much today, but he’s had a great year, and Saban wanted to give some other players experience.

Saban pleased with the team. Got to play a lot of players, which it needed to do. Good way for seniors to go out at Bryant-Denny

Saban on RB: "We wanted to get those guys (Bo & Damien) on the field early on. It was more important to get them to play."

The Tide is playing extremely well right now, but Saban doesn’t think we should move too far ahead.
Saban: "You're only as good as your last play…we've got to continue to play excellent and play consistently."

Saban: You're only as good as your last play. We obviously have a road game in one of the best rivalry games in the country.

Saban on whether his defense is as prepared as its been to face Auburn: I wouldn't say that. I haven't watched them yet.

Saban on rivalry games: You have to focus on playing your best and don't get too emotional. It's about having the right mindset.

A lot of Tide players are suffering injuries right now, but we got some hopeful news about RT Dominick Jackson.
Saban: RT Dominick Jackson struggled on his ankle this week so they held him out in hopes he'll be better next week.
