Ok. Seriously, Nick Saban is doing this stuff on purpose. Stop it, Nick. pic.twitter.com/RzQkR9q6fp

For whatever reason, this photo made me think of this quote Saban said after the 2013 BCS Championship:
Q. You’re just the third college team ever to win three National Championships in a four‑year span. Do you think someday when you retire, what have you, you’ll look back and say, hey, that was pretty special what we accomplished back then?
COACH NICK SABAN: Yeah, I think it’s pretty special what we’ve accomplished, what the players accomplished, what the coaches accomplished, I think it’s really special. And one of these days when I’m sitting on the side of a hill watching the stream go by, I’ll probably figure it out even more.
But what about next year’s team? You’ve got to think about that, too.
There’s Saban, caught in that awkward moment between looking into the camera and trying to get out of the picture. But who cares if he’s photogenic? He was probably devising some diabolical blitz package for West Virginia.
