At one point during the National Championship, some guy wearing an Alabama shirt started taunting Deshaun Watson after Watson had been tackled out of bounds.
Internet detectives are trying to figure out whether this dude yelling at Deshaun Watson is Nick Saban’s son
The Internet will get to the bottom of this!
That guy looks like a jerk, huh? Then the Internet found out that he actually looks a lot like Nick Saban’s son, as this photo from Alabama’s previous BCS Championship shows.

— Woody Whitehurst (@woodywhitehurst) January 12, 2016 Is this Saban’s son? Who knows. But that didn’t stop the Internet from searching for answers. Good Bull Hunting writer TelcoAg did some key investigative work, asking a co-worker of Saban’s son, Nicholas, in an online chat.
UPDATE: BREAKING: Fellow employee of Nicholas Saban does not believe that this was Nicholas pic.twitter.com/i5TbYWq4My
— Breaking News (@TelcoAg) January 13, 2016 Someone else even pulled Nicholas Saban’s wedding photos, with inconclusive results.
Ryen Russillo, a radio personality who also looks like Nick Saban’s son, jokingly took credit.
I apologize for celebrating the stop. My passion got the better of me. It was a big stop.
