Nick Saban isn’t typically one to let his hair down but even he admitted that a victory cigar was in order after Saturday’s win.
In the postgame interview with CBS’ Jenny Dell, the Alabama head coach was asked how he plans to celebrate beating Tennessee despite not liking to smoke them. To which Saban responded, “Well I’ll chew on one for a while, I’ll tell you that.”
