President Obama called University of Alabama head football coach Nick Saban on Thursday to congratulate Saban and the Crimson Tide for once again winning the Bowl Championship Series national title.

The president noted that this was the third time that he has made the call to Saban and joked that the Alabama team is beginning to make this a habit.

President Obama commended Saban on the incredible organization he has built at UA and told him that he looks forward to congratulating the team in person at the White House.

No date has yet been set for the 2012 Alabama football team to visit the White House. The Crimson Tide visited the White House after winning the 2009 and 2011 national championships.
