Many fans have had a difficult time adjusting to seeing Nick Saban cover college football as a full-time analyst, and Georgia head coach Kirby Smart is struggling with it, too.
Smart, who made a name for himself working as an assistant under Saban at Alabama, was asked on Wednesday what it is like to have his former boss and rival working in media. The two-time national champion responded with a great analogy.
“It’s weird. I mean, the call I did to set up with Media Days, I was, like, nervous,” Smart said. “I was like, for 15 minutes I’m gonna share with him about my team? I’m like, I feel like I’m giving answers to Darth Vader or something.”
