    When Alabama coach Nick Saban stepped to the podium for a media conference late Saturday night, he wasn’t in what you’d describe as a gregarious mood. Moments earlier, jogging off the field at Bryant-Denny Stadium, he shot some poor soul a laser-beam death stare and swatted away the hand of his assisting police officer.

    He was in one of those moods again.

    Alabama had won big, beating Ole Miss 66-3, and Saban was grumpy.

    “We’re pleased with the outcome,” he said with all the sincerity of a hostage reading from a script. “So, you know, nothing’s perfect.”

    Not perfect? Well, it was awfully close. Alabama, ranked No. 1 and undefeated, had just beaten a team by 63 points. If you count the previous week’s 59-0 beatdown of Vanderbilt, the Crimson Tide have outscored the SEC 125-3 this season. And they’ve done it without committing a single turnover.
