Which SEC team benefits most from Nick Saban's retirement? From Georgia to Tennessee

From Knoxville to Auburn and SEC football locales throughout the
South, fans can rejoice in Nick Saban's retirement. Saban was
especially hard on Tennessee. He went 16-1 against the Vols as
Alabama's coach. Josh Heupel, in 2022, became the first UT coach
to beat Saban's Tide.


Alabama hired an accomplished coach in Kalen DeBoer, but it
nonetheless may need a minute to adjust to life without Saban.
Several talented Tide players are transferring.


On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and Adam Sparks discuss
which programs benefit the most from Saban's retirement.


Tennessee will host Alabama during the 2024 season. Suddenly,
that game looks more winnable than ever. That puts more pressure
on Heupel to produce a victory, but, pressure aside, this is good
news for Tennessee. Saban's retirement increases the Vols' chance
of qualifying for next season's College Football Playoff.


But, Tennessee doesn't top the list of beneficiaries of Saban's
retirement.
