Nick Saban teases Marshawn Lynch about Seahawks pass on 1-yard line in Super Bowl 49

From changing his tie to appease the Cal football fans on ESPN's "College GameDay" to teasing Marshawn Lynch, Nick Saban is enjoying his retirement from coaching.
Saban picked Miami to beat Cal in the matchup from Berkeley, California, to the chagrin of the Cal grad and former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch. Lynch was selected as the guest picker for "GameDay's" first-ever trip to a Cal football game.
Lynch, of course, picked Cal to upset No. 8 Miami, potentially giving the Golden Bears their first top-10 home victory since 2017 when Cal beat No. 8 Washington State 37-3 in Berkeley on October 13, 2017.
Saban had a little fun at Lynch's expense with the infamous decision of former Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll to pass the ball instead of running it with Lynch in Super Bowl 49, which led to Tom Brady and the New England Patriots winning. Malcolm Butler's interception at the 1-yard line is now regarded as one of the most influential plays in NFL Super Bowl history.
"We may disagree on our pick, but I am telling you man, fourth-and-1 in the Super Bowl at the 1(-yard-line), I am giving your a— the ball. Right here," Saban said as he did the motion to hand the ball off to Lynch, with the rest of the crew laughing.
