Saban 'disappointed, almost embarrassed' after Alabama's 28-point win
Alabama defeated Western Kentucky 38-10 on Saturday, but don't expect head coach Nick Saban to be celebrating tonight.
Despite a 28-point win, Saban was not happy with the Crimson Tide's performance.
"I don't know if I've ever been more disappointed after a win, ever," Saban told reporters afterwards. "I'm almost embarrassed that I didn't do a better job for our team."
Offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin also felt Saban's wrath with 46 seconds left.

Saban was asked about his tirade and made sure everyone knows who's in charge on the Alabama sideline.
Saban on his interaction with Kiffin during the game: "There were no arguments. Those are called ass-chewings."

Perhaps Saban's lack of complacency is one of the main reasons he has captured five national championships.
