Nick Saban may have stepped off the football field, but he's still finding ways to entertain his fans. This time, he stepped off his usual broadcasting booth and onto the racetrack.

His daughter, Kristen Saban, gave everyone a glimpse of her dad living it up, sharing a photo of the former Alabama coach flashing a peace sign and looking sharp in his formal attire during an ESPN "College GameDay" segment.

Nick Saban’s day was full of adventure, far more than what the photo captured. He took his love for cars to a whole new level by hopping into a Mercedes F1 vehicle for a ride at the United States Grand Prix in Austin. Guided by Mercedes F1 reserve driver Mick Schumacher, Saban hit an incredible 170 mph, zooming around the Circuit of the Americas.

His ride, leading up to the Formula 1 Pirelli United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, was highlighted on ESPN's "College GameDay" social media accounts, and the full segment aired during the show on Saturday.

The former Alabama coach also took the stage to deliver a speech to the Texas crowd, addressing the enthralling audience ahead of the Texas-Georgia game.

Nick Saban has concerns for Georgia Bulldogs ahead of week 8

The former Alabama coach gave his view on the Georgia Bulldogs heading into their Week 8 matchup. During an appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show,” Saban discussed Kirby Smart's defense, which hasn’t quite lived up to its typical standard.

While the 72-year-old legendary coach hasn’t spoken directly with Smart, he pointed out that tackling and allowing explosive plays have been ongoing issues for the Bulldogs this season.

“Not quite as good a tackling team as they’ve been in the past," Saban noted. "They’ve given up a few more explosive plays."

No. 5 Georgia (5-1, 3-1 SEC) enters the game as an underdog. This is not just because of its loss to Alabama in Week 5 but also due to some shaky performances in SEC play. The Bulldogs have struggled to intimidate their opponents, with tight games against teams like Kentucky and Auburn raising eyebrows.

Georgia faces the No.1 Texas Longhorns (6-0, 2-0) and needs to avoid another loss to stay in the playoff hunt. However, according to Saban, the Bulldogs have some work to do if they want to play like before.
