College football fans loved Nick Saban’s Indiana Jones-esque hat on GameDay at Notre Dame

Everyone had plenty of “Alabama Jones” jokes for Nick Saban’s hat.

Since retiring from coaching college football, Nick Saban has been a delightful addition to ESPN’s College GameDay, and he’s showing off a side of his personality most people rarely got to see before.

He swears on air regularly, he roasted himself after Miss Terry beat his weekly picks, he’s honest about the College Football Playoff, he dressed up in the Nittany Lions mascot costume and he’s overall engaging to watch. And, of course, he still has plenty of critical thoughts for Alabama football.

For the first round of the College Football Playoff, GameDay is in two places: South Bend on Friday for the Indiana-Notre Dame game and then Columbus on Saturday ahead of the Tennessee-Ohio State game.

It was freezing, literally, at Notre Dame on Friday, so it’s no surprise that the GameDay crew was bundled up, which included Saban wearing an Indiana Jones-esque hat.

The GameDay crew and college football fans both at the ESPN set and online loved Saban’s look for the most part, and a few had some pretty solid jokes about what the former Alabama coach looked like, beyond Indiana Jones.
