Nick Saban, Bryce Young hilariously knock Pat McAfee to floor after picking against Alabama football

Nick Saban and Alabama quarterback Bryce Young had a lighthearted but memorable moment during ESPN’s *College GameDay* ahead of Saturday’s high-stakes SEC showdown with Georgia. The pair playfully reacted after Pat McAfee’s pick sided with the Bulldogs, with Saban even knocking McAfee to the floor in jest—a moment that went viral among Crimson Tide fans.

Alabama, led by Saban since 2007, boasts a strong historical edge over Georgia, though the Bulldogs won their last meeting in the 2025 SEC Championship. This year’s matchup in Tuscaloosa (7:30 PM ET on ABC) adds intrigue, as both teams have remained largely untested: Alabama’s closest games came against Kentucky and Florida State, while Georgia has yet to face a true roadblock in 2026.

The game promises to be a clash of undefeated records and SEC pride, with neither team showing signs of slowing down despite limited adversity so far.
