More quotes by Nick Saban
Now, everybody always says there's no 'I' in team, but there is an 'I' in win, because the individuals make the team what it is, and how they think and what they do is important to the team. So when you act like the individual is not important, well, it is damn important who these people are and what they are.

Sometimes you get away with doing things not quite right against lesser competition, but when you play against real good people that's when it shows up.
