Nick Saban cringes while Pat McAfee dances in his seat on ESPN's 'College GameDay'

Colin Cowherd weighs in on Nick Saban saying ‘expectations are a killer’ for rookie QBs, especially for Chicago Bears' Caleb Williams.

Footage of an awkward moment between Nick Saban and Pat McAfee on the set of ESPN's "College GameDay" emerged Saturday.

The footage, seemingly recorded by a cell phone, showed McAfee dancing in his seat and snapping his fingers while music blared. Saban sat still in his seat with his hands together, firing awkward glances at his colleague. 

Saban repeatedly smacked his lips and looked down and away at times while McAfee danced just inches away.

Both received criticism for their demeanors.

The two hosts have taken very different paths to their respective seats on the show. Saban, who is in his first full season on the show, was one of the most successful head coaches in college football history during his 17-year stint leading Alabama from 2007-23. He won six national titles leading the Crimson Tide and a seventh with LSU in 2003.
