“Bro is a dead man walking”: NFL fans react to Nick Saban’s savage quip on Miss Terry’s birthday cake

Legendary college coach Nick Saban has reacted to the viral video of his wife, Miss Terry, telling him to sit up on his birthday. The former Miami Dolphins coach was seen in the video in a reclining chair watching the Buffalo Bills vs. the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.

His wife of over five decades came into the room with a big birthday cake, urging him to sit up and blow out the candles. Apparently, it was the seven-time national championship-winning coach’s 74th birthday.

Appearing on the Pat McAfee show on Friday, Saban shared a joke about the moment captured in the video, saying:

“You think she made that cake? Ms. Terry found out about catering a long time ago. But she is a hell of a cook when she cooks.”

Fans on social media, especially X, have started sharing different reactions to the joke. Thomas Grape wrote:

“Bro is a dead man walking.”

PJP also wrote:

“He followed it up with, ‘But when she cooks, she is a great cook.’ He already knew he messed up.”

Dennis Attaway commented:

“That may be his last cake after that comment.”

Russ added:

“Lmao, they need a reality show.”

Brett also commented:

“I’d watch a Nick and Miss Terry reality show just for the old people bickering. Would be awesome.”

Twist said:

“He may be a good football coach, but he’s gonna be sleeping on the couch for a week!”

Nick Saban and Miss Terry have been married for more than 50 years, with two children: Nicholas and Kristen.

Looking back at Nick Saban’s NFL stint

Nick Saban is known by most as that college coaching legend with a penchant for winning championships. What many do not know, however, is that he has at one time coached in the NFL.

Following his tenure at LSU, which lasted from 2000 to 2004, Saban was hired by the Dolphins in Dec. 2004. His first season in charge of the Dolphins got off to a winning start, but a long stretch of frustrating results undermined their playoff hopes.

After a 9-7 finish in his first season, Saban’s Dolphins were projected to contend for the playoffs in 2006. However, another frustrating campaign saw the team finish 6-10 and Saban accept the Alabama coaching job offer.

He would go on to lead the Crimson Tide to six national championships in one of the most successful coaching runs in football history.
