Saban: Alabama players must put aside 'clutter'


MIAMI (AP) — Days after team leaders held a players-only meeting, Alabama coach Nick Saban says the Crimson Tide's performance in Monday's BCS championship will show a lot about whether his players have put aside the "clutter" that comes with their success.


Saban spoke Saturday at media day for the title game, which pits No. 2 Alabama against No. 1 Notre Dame. Alabama is favored by more than a touchdown.


Saban says that two days after the Tide beat LSU in last year's BCS title game, he told players they were no longer the national champions.


Then it was Brian Kelly's turn. The Notre Dame coach says he gets the vibe that his team is ready for Monday night. He says he doesn't want the "outside, perceived pressure to weigh heavily" on players.
