Happiness is not an
accident.
Nor is it something you
wish for.
Happiness is something you
design.
- Jim Rohn
"I watched him
(Coach Saban) on the sidelines in games.
His manner, his calm
manner, it's all about focus," "He's very focused in what he's doing.
He has people who back him with that. He expects his players to be focused as
well. He's focused on his golf game ― very focused. You can see he wants to be
the best player he can possibly be and that's the way he coaches and what he
expects of his players. ...
and he's had a pretty good track record for
that."
- Tom Watson
This game is what this
team has worked all off-season for. We've talked a lot about establishing an
identity, and now is the time to create the identity of this team. We could
say, `Are we going to play with a reputation of the Alabama teams of the past,
or is this team going to create an identity of its own on being a dangerous
team?' I don't think anyone is every really afraid of you until you become a
scary team in terms of how you execute, what you do, the discipline you play
with, the grit that you have - which is the perseverance and passion that help
you accomplish the goals. You become scary if you show the ability to stay
focused on those things and do those things effectively and consistently over a
long period of time, which is the entire season. I have been pleased with the
way our players have approached things this fall. I thought we had good days of
work on Friday and Saturday, and we still have a little extra time.
- Coach Nick Saban
