Nick Saban ribs Jay Bilas for March Madness predictions: ‘He completely messed up my whole bracket’

Nick Saban fills out a March Madness bracket just like the rest of us.
And on Thursday at Alabama’s Pro Day, Saban had some words for Jay Bilas, who he took advice from online in filling out his selections. Apparently Bilas steered Saban wrong, because he felt the need to call him out and have a group of reporters relay the former Duke star the message. On Saturday, the message made its way to College GameDay.

Utah State/Mizzou was a polarizing game, huh? It seemed everyone was high on the Aggies, but Mizzou made fairly quick work of a team that struggled to shoot 3-pointers at the rate that they had seen all season.
In fairness to Bilas, this year’s version of March Madness has really lived up to the name. No 1-seed reached the Elite 8 for the first time in DI history, and one of FAU, SDSU, Kansas State or Creighton will be playing for the national title in a week. Not sure anyone can say they picked exactly those 4 in the Elite 8 without sheer luck involved.
