Nick Saban helped turn Kirby Smart into a title challenger

Fisher beat the losing streak in October, but Smart’s three losses averaged just 9 points per game, the best of any of these former assistants. Those Georgia teams did the best of Alabama’s duties (34 points per game), while Kiffin’s team scored the most goals against the Crimson Tide (34.5 points per game). Now, however, with the SEC championship approaching, Saban’s team comes in as the underdog for the first time since 2015, ending a 92-game streak as a betting favorite. , according to ESPN.
