What would Nick Saban have done...
IF Nick Saban was the coach at Oregon this season and had made Anthony Brown the starting QB...and the team performance had gone like it has (although I believe Oregon would have played better), do you think AB would still be the starter? I don't.
Afterall, with Alabama down 13-0 at halftime of the National Championship Game against Georgia, Saban benched 26-2 starter Jalen Hurts for Tua Tagovailoa and won the game.
Great coaches are not afraid to make tough personnel decisions regardless of whether "the process"(Saban has one too) validates it

It would be interesting to see if he’d do it if we’re down at the half tomorrow - not so interesting that I’d actually want us to be down at the half, however.

I really believe that no matter how poorly AB plays, MC will not take him out...so hopefully he plays great

I’m glad we never had to find out what it would’ve taken for him to move on from Arroyo.
