On Monday, Nick Saban was asked about the importance of playing college football this year. The Alabama head coach says playing this fall is not about driving revenue for the athletic departments, but instead providing an opportunity for the players.
“Everybody acts like we want to play for the money,” he said, according to ESPN on Monday. “We want to play for the players. I want to play for the players.”
Though the Big Ten and Pac 12 have already decided not to play a season this fall, the ACC, SEC and Big 12 keep pushing forward.
