Unwilling to be Satisfied

Celebration was not on Saban's mind after receiver Matt Caddell cradled a 4-yard pass from quarterback John Parker Wilson to clinch the victory with eight seconds left.

"We won the game, all right, but we didn't psychologically go toe-to-toe and beat them physically," Saban said. "We'd like to be a team that people don't want to play because of how we physically play the game."

That's the mindset for Alabama, which hosts No. 22 Georgia Saturday at 5:45 p.m. (ESPN) in a game that figures just as challenging.

Saban is a coach unwilling to be satisfied, even with a thrilling win. He spoke, in a way, like the coach of the losing team that had suffered through missed opportunities and stumbles and bumbles.
