What does Nick Saban really think about Auburn?

It's not every day that you get to see two of the most polarizing sports figures in the same room together and it just so happens they both have ties to two of the most storied rivalry in the history of college athletics. In this AL.com exclusive video series, former Auburn basketball star and TV commentator Charles Barkley talks to Alabama head coach Nick Saban about his team and his vision for success but also takes us closer to his life off the football field.
In this segment, which you can watch at the top of this article, Barkley asks Saban about the Alabama-Auburn rivalry, what it means to him as a coach, and the impact it has on everyone around the state.
