Deion Sanders calls out Nick Saban on 'GameDay' for picking against him, praises Miss Terry

Two weeks after Saban, 72, went against Sanders' Colorado Buffaloes - and Miss Terry picked them to win - the former Alabama coach got a playful earful from Coach Prime during a segment Saturday on "College GameDay."

"How's the fishing, man?" Saban asked Sanders in reference to their Aflac commercial. "Because last time I saw you it wasn't going so well."

Sanders laughed and had three things for the coach.

"No. 1, the fishing ain't good," he said. "I don't fish here. I coach here.

No. 2, you stunted on the whole set. They didn't even get that. They asked you what car dealership and you said, Uh, Mercedes and Lamborghini. That was a stunt. That's the way to do it, coach.

"Third, I forgive you for last week. But my favorite, Miss Terry had my back. I love you, sis. I love you, Miss Terry. I love you."

Last month, "GameDay," with Miss Terry as the celebrity picker, made predictions on Colorado's game against UCF.

Here are those picks:

Saban reminded Sanders that Miss Terry "got on me because I didn't."

The "GameDay" analyst did share what he likes most about Sanders, who couldn't help but question the comment.

"That's the one thing I love about you, Deion," Saban said. "You are old-school. You believe in discipline. You believe doing things the right way. You grew up the right way, but you got this great image, man, of being a great player being 'kind of primetime,' and I love that. And it has helped your program a lot."

"Coach said, 'I'm kinda primetime,'" Sanders reacted.
