Saban downplays Muschamp factor
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Alabama coach Nick Saban has already been asked the question a few times, and he’s sure to get asked several more times as the Citi BCS National Championship Game approaches.
In short, does Texas have an advantage because its defensive coordinator, Will Muschamp, worked under Saban at LSU and its running backs coach, Major Applewhite, served as Saban’s offensive coordinator at Alabama in 2007?
Judging by Saban’s response Monday, he doesn’t sound too concerned.
“We kind of know what they do, too,” Saban said. “It will be interesting to see if they change what they’re doing. Who you are is more important than what you do. I always say that.”
Sure, the Crimson Tide will probably change up their signals and tweak a few things here and there, but now isn’t the time to be overhauling your system because a couple of former assistants are on the other sideline.
That said, Muschamp probably knows Saban as well as any assistant coach out there, and he also worked with Alabama linebackers coach James Willis at Auburn for two years.
“I don’t really think there are a whole lot of changes you can make ... to do what?” Saban said. “Are you going to trick yourself or trick them? We do what we do and always do self-scout and know what our tendencies are and what the other team thinks about us and what we need to do to balance that.”
I forgot that Willis was the lb coach at Bama. You can tell by the way McClain plays, damn if Willis had something to do with that. Back to the topic, watch out cause Muschamp is a hell of a DC and I would love to see Boom Mother Fucker vol II against the Tide.

I think he got the cut from head butting a DT.

He stuck his head through a marker board when he was at Auburn.

Yes, he did get a cut on the fourhead for head butting a lineman, but in that picture he got cut because when he ripped off his headset after a big stop, he also ripped off some skin with his finger nails.
