1. Nick Saban, Alabama

No surprise here. Saban is practically no. 1 by default. But he’s also the best coach in college football. Some may argue Urban Meyer or maybe even Dabo Swinney, but it’s really not even close.

Saban has a .774 winning percentage in his 21 years as a head coach, and a ridiculous 119-19 (.862) record in his 10 years in Tuscaloosa. And 6 of those 19 losses came in his first year at Alabama.

And that’s just on the field, we won’t even get started with his success on the recruiting trail.
