Video of Nick Saban to Kevin Sumlin: ‘You took 10 years off my life’

Saban’s message comes at the 50-yard line as the two coaches met for the post-game handshake.

Alabama just wrapped up a 49-42 barnburner win over Texas A&M, and Nick Saban has a message for Kevin Sumlin: “You took 10 years off my life.”

Watch:

And for that, Saban will haunt Sumlin from the afterlife when the time comes. Saban grudges are eternal.

Also, this is tangentially related, I know, but “Ten Years Gone” just might be Led Zeppelin’s most underrated song.
