Nick Saban went crazy on the sidelines and chewed out Lane Kiffin at the end of Saturday’s win over Western Kentucky.
Alabama was up 38-3 with 2:10 left and the game was essentially over, but Bama’s Kiffin called for a non-traditional running play. The Tide lost the ball on a fumble, and Western Kentucky turned it into a touchdown to make the score 38-10.
That led Saban to ream Kiffin on the sidelines:

Asked about the exchange after the game, Saban dismissed the notion that the two had an argument and called it an a– chewing.
Saban was extremely frustrated after the victory.
Saban: I don't think I've ever been this disappointed after a win. Ever.

The comments come as no surprise considering he’s a perfectionist who does not want to see his team make any mistakes. It’s also interesting to note that Western Kentucky’s late touchdown could have affected the betting spread, which was around 27 points.
