Former Tennessee quarterback had some fun Thursday when talking about 'The Third Saturday in October.'
Published: Oct. 19, 2023, 6:51 p.m.Peyton Manning has a way with words. His self-deprecating humor is on display during his Monday Night Football broadcast with brother Eli.
“It’s funny,” he started. “I can’t think of the last time Alabama’s beaten us. We, obviously, took care of business last year. The series has been so one sided since 2022, so I’m gonna tune in Saturday, but I think I know what’s going to happen because we’ve had our way with them since 2022.” “ Nick Saban, for some reason, I think he remembers that game from last year,” Manning joked. “He remembers the pictures of the cigars. I was have one as well in the locker room. It had been a long time since we had a chance to do that.”Manning, who has a deep respect for Saban, admits the game will be a ”dogfight.”
