Birmingham, Alabama: University of Alabama head football coach Nick Saban made a surprise visit to the Birmingham Barbarians practice at the team's practice facility in Birmingham earlier today.
" Nick called earlier this week asking if he could come watch the team practice. I told him sure, but was a bit surprised when he showed up this morning. " said Birmingham head coach Norv Turner.
Saban reportedly stayed for a little over an hour and spoke briefly with the team, wishing them luck in their upcoming playoff matchup this coming Sunday at Legion Field. The Barbarians host the defending Pantheon Cup champion Louisville Thoroughbreds for the Eastern Conference Championship and a spot in the 2018 Pantheon Cup Championship game.
