Why is Nick Saban bleeding during the Iron Bowl?
As Alabama enters halftime with a three-touchdown lead over Auburn in the Iron Bowl, fans may have noticed Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban with a scratch and a bit of blood on his cheek.
Have no fear, he is alright.
Saban was reportedly bumped into by a player on the sideline during the game and a shoulder pad scraped his cheek, resulting in a small cut and a bit of blood.
The Crimson Tide defeated the Tigers 49-27 after a full four quarters.
