Nick Saban issued a stern warning to Kirby Smart after the Bulldogs’ head coach made remarks widely viewed as arrogant and provocative toward Alabama. Smart dismissed the Crimson Tide as “just an ordinary team without Nick Saban,” ridiculed new head coach Kalen DeBoer as “a lousy coach who only bullies weaker opponents,” and sneered that “when he faces real competition like Florida State, he crumbles — and against me, he’ll know nothing but total defeat.”
