They are back in the college football playoff after missing out on the event for the first time ever in 2019, and they're hoping to finish often ultra successful season with the program's first national championship since 2017.

他們在2019年首次錯過了大學橄欖球季後賽，他們希望以該計劃自2017年以來的第一個全國冠軍來完成經常超成功的賽季。

There's a heavy favorite to beat Notre Dame and also the championship game, which would be the fifth title under head coach Nick Saban.

有一個重頭戲是擊敗聖母大學，也是冠軍賽，這將是主教練尼克-薩班的第五個冠軍。

So, Ryan, I know you know what it's like to play for Nick Saban, but Don, I want to start with you and ask, Is Nick Saban the greatest college coach of all time?

萊恩，我知道你知道為尼克-塞班打球的感覺，但唐，我想先問你，尼克-塞班是有史以來最偉大的大學教練嗎？

I mean, I guess so.

我的意思是，我想是這樣。

You could look at his championships and him being able to build championship programs at two different sec, um, institutions.

你可以看看他的冠軍和他能在兩個不同的機構建立冠軍項目，嗯，機構。

So, yeah, it's hard to measure up against him with anybody else in the modern era.

所以啊，在現代，很難用任何人來衡量他。

But, I mean, the person who comes to mind for me is kind of get lost in the history of all this is is Eddie Robinson.

但是，我的意思是，誰想到的人 我的腦海裡是一種迷失在歷史 這一切是埃迪・羅賓遜。

Like the coach at Grambling, he was there for 56 years, a head coach for an insane amount of time, and he started took over that program back in the days of Jim Crow.

就像在格蘭布林的教練，他在那裡56年，一個瘋狂的時間的主教練，他開始接管了這個項目，在吉姆-克勞的日子。

It was, I think, 1941.

我想，那是1941年。

At 22 years old, he became the head coach of the gram of football team.

22歲的時候，他就成為了足球隊克的主教練。

And you know, you talk about coaches who could do multiple different jobs like Eddie Robinson really was that guy who was out there cutting the grass, taping ankles, coaching offense, defense and special teams and somehow, throughout all of that in in Louisiana, he managed to put more than 200 players in the professional ranks.

你知道，你說的教練可以做多種不同的工作... ...像埃迪-羅賓遜真的是那個人... ...他在那裡割草，綁腳踝，執教進攻，防守和特殊的團隊... ...而且不知何故，在路易斯安那州的所有這一切，他設法把超過200名球員送進職業行列。

I think he has four Hall of Famers like Pro Football Hall of Famers that he had coached.

我想他有四個名人堂一樣的職業橄欖球名人堂成員，他曾經執教過。

The man has been incredible, so I think that his his kind of on field accomplishments they don't measure up to what Nick Saban has done.

這個人一直是不可思議的，所以我認為他的那種在球場上的成就，他們並不能和尼克-塞班所做的事情相提並論。

But if you look at the distance that he traveled, winning nine black National Black College national championships, if you look at the things that he he had overcome and the impact that he had on the sport, I feel like that's the only person that you could argue and it's not necessarily because of his on field accomplishments alone, but it's it's his ability to have accomplishments on field while fighting all the other things he was fighting.

但如果你看看他走過的路程，贏得了九個黑人全國黑人大學的全國冠軍，如果你看看他他所克服的事情，以及他對這項運動的影響，我覺得這是唯一一個你可以爭論的人，這不一定是因為他在場上的成就，單單是他在場上的成就，但它是它的能力，在場上有成就，同時與所有其他的事情，他正在戰鬥。

I'm not sure that anybody else compares the Knicks saving other than Eddie Robinson.

我不知道除了艾迪-羅賓遜之外，還有沒有人比較尼克斯隊的保存。

What he did down there.

他在下面做了什麼？

Grambling State.

格蘭布林州立大學。

You know, it's so crazy, you know, being from Louisiana, remembering my uncle, taking me to the Bayou Classic.

你知道，這太瘋狂了，你知道，來自路易斯安那州，記得我的叔叔，帶我去看河口經典賽。

And, you know, at the time I put on my fresh is fit for the Bayou Classic and I was about 12, so I don't really have a lot, but I put it all on that day I had on three different layers of all my fire stuff I had on some Tebow jeans at the Tommy Hill figure.

而且，你知道，當時我把我的新鮮是適合河口經典賽，我大約12歲，所以我真的沒有很多，但我把它全部放在那一天，我有三個不同的層的所有我的火的東西，我有一些特波牛仔褲在湯米希爾圖。

I had a bucket, UNLV had.

我有一個桶，UNLV有。

I was ready to rock.

And it was just one of those things.

這只是其中的一件事，當你去看格蘭布林對陣南方隊時。

It wasn't just about football, you know, it was about so much more than that.

這不僅僅是關於足球，你知道，它是關於這麼多比這更多。

And so I'm gonna get to my argument for Coach Saban.

我現在要為Saban教練辯護了。

But Dom just brings up such a great point of being in the place.

但多姆就是提出了這麼一個很好的點，就是在這個地方。

The impact you have on that place and the last thing memory that you created in college football.

你對那個地方的影響和你在大學足球中創造的最後一件事記憶。

Eddie Robinson is all of those things now on the other side, I played for Nick Saban, right when Nick Saban got to else you were sitting in the meeting, I'm coming off of a season.

埃迪-羅賓遜是所有這些東西，現在在另一邊，我為尼克-薩班打過球，就在尼克-薩班到別的地方的時候，你坐在會議上，我從一個賽季下來。

I had 100 and 10 tackles, three picks, 11 p b.

我有100個和10個擒拿手，3個選秀權，11個p b。

我還記得，因為我期待尼克-塞班這個走進來的點直接對我說，你就是我迫不及待想執教你的人。

尼克-薩班抬頭看了看滿屋子的L S U Tigers。

A lot of boys from the boot.

We don't know who this little short dude is in the front of the room.
