Nick Saban smiles next to Pat McAfee

Pat McAfee was a big addition to ESPN’s pregame show for the College Football Playoff National Championship on Monday, and a few of his colleagues didn’t know what hit them.

McAfee brought his high-energy, WWE-promotion cutting, wild-man tendencies to what is typically a fun but straightforward show. The former NFL punter was surrounded by Nick Saban and Lee Corso as it was time to give picks. As McAfee went into wrestling promoter mode for his pick, Saban and Corso had incredible reactions. Saban couldn’t keep himself from laughing.

That was awesome. The dichotomy in personalities between McAfee and Saban couldn’t be starker, which is what made them so great next to each other.

You know you’re doing your job well if you can make Saban laugh.
