Alabama coach Nick Saban talked about that crazy play and more after the game won by Bama 27-24. Here's a look at some of Saban's post-game comments.

Opening Statement

“Do I really need to say anything?

“I must admit you have to be a little bit lucky for it to work, but I’ll take it,"

On the name of the Winning Play to Bond

"Believe it or not, we practice that play every Friday in walk-through when we do special situations. If the play had a name, I wouldn't tell you."

NOTE: Hero/wide receiver Isaiah Bond said Alabama’s last-second play is called “gravedigger.”

“We’re going to put them in the grave after that play," Bond said. "It’s normally an end of the game, put them to sleep type of play.”

Saban: We had good fortune but it still comes down to the ability to execute.”

On Jalen Milroe

“His progress has transformed our team and our offense.”

On This Comeback Being 10 Years After 'Kick Six'

"I feel good. It should be a lesson for everybody in life to overcome adversity man”

On The 4th-and-31 TD

"Jalen made a great throw, but IB put himself in a position so there was room to throw it.”

“That is a play we actually work on. I must admit I think you have to be a little lucky for (the play) to work”

On How His Team Played

"There were a lot of good things, but kind of a reality check, though”
