Nick Saban says former Alabama player ‘pushed the red button’ in Oval Office during Trump White House visit

Former college football coach Nick Saban introduced President Donald Trump before graduating students at the University of Alabama on Thursday night, but before the president could give his commencement speech, Saban shared a funny story about the Crimson Tide’s visit to the White House during Trump’s first presidency.

Alabama had defeated the Georgia Bulldogs in overtime after trailing 13-0 at halftime to win the College Football National Championship in 2018. As tradition would have it, the team was invited to celebrate their victory with a trip to the White House.
