LSU fans, the doctor will see you now
Admit it, LSU fans. You’re jealous. You’re bitter.
The coach you loved, Nick Saban, gave you five of the best years of your recent football life, and then unceremoniously dumped you for another team.
You could get past the fact that the other team was in the NFL. It still hurt, but you could wish him well because as long as he stayed in the NFL, you could think of him fondly as long as he kept his distance.
But then Saban came back. Not all the way back to Baton Rouge, but back to live in the same neighborhood, the Southeastern Conference. He came back to coach at a rival school, Alabama.
And today, he comes back to your house with his pretty new team that is ranked No.1 in the country, a team that has become the talk of college football, the way you were not that long ago.
