Nate Oats has gotten to the point where he welcomes Gatorade baths. Despite the stains on all his nice suits.
The Alabama head coach just led his team to yet another win over a No. 1 team. Alabama dispatched Houston Saturday afternoon, 71-65 just a few weeks after downing North Carolina on Nov. 27.
His players gave him a Gatorade bath after the win. He explained why he didn’t mind being drenched in the best way possible postgame.

“They got me, I don’t mind. If we keep beating No. 1 teams, we can take this to the cleaners. They got me with Gatorade instead of just water this game.” pic.twitter.com/IZDWQuCsOm

Yeah, that checks out. The Crimson Tide are looking dangerous right now, having lost just 1 game on the season to Connecticut on Nov. 25.
Alabama has Memphis on the docket for this Tuesday looking to earn its 9th win on the season.
