Kristen Saban, daughter of former Alabama Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban, is keeping the bond between the family and program alive.
Despite her father's retirement from coaching, Kristen has positioned herself as a champion for the team, despite the drop in form shown under new coach Kalen DeBoer.
In a video that Kristen posted on Instagram on Wednesday, her son is wearing an Alabama jersey and jumping on a bed. This "performance" is accompanied by a song associated with the Crimson Tide program.
From the looks of this, Saban's affection towards the Crimson Tide has been passed on to her son. It is safe to say that the Saban family are going to be fans of the Alabama Crimson Tide for generations.
Presently though, the program is facing some difficulties. Under DeBoer, the program has gone from challenging for the National Championship to potentially not making it into an expanded College Football Playoffs.
Luckily for the Crimson Tide, the first CFP poll was released on Tuesday night. It puts Alabama in the Playoff as the No. 11 seed, where (if the tournament was held now) they will face the Texas Longhorns in the first round.
Kristen Saban gives her verdict on Taylor Swift
The performance of her son is not the only one that Kristen Saban has given her approval to. On Tuesday, she gave her opinion on her father's fellow College GameDay star Pat McAfee's viral review of Taylor Swift's concert in Indianapolis last weekend.
In this, McAfee said:
"It was an experience. It was the coolest, most electrifying environment I have ever been in my entire life.”
This show was a special one, as it was the final US show of her recent tour, something that has traveled to all four corners of the world.
The show from Sunday Night was also the highest-attended event at Lucas Oil Stadium, where 69,000 people came to see the icon perform.
This is more people than who attended the Super Bowl between the New York Giants and New England Patriots when it was held in the same stadium 12 years ago.
In her response to McAfee's review, Kristen Saban wrote in the Instagram comments:
“Pat McAfee 🤝 Swifties.”
Kristen is well known for her affection towards Taylor Swift, having posted on social media on numerous occasions that she has been listening to Swift's music and even defending her fans online.
