Nick Saban commented on the fallen officer during his Wednesday press conference, “It’s a terrible tragedy in our community that we lost a police officer on Monday night.”

He continued..

“I would like to know that our entire program, all the players, coaches, everybody in the entire organization, our entire family, our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. I know we are doing something in the stadium tonight to honor this person (Officer Cousette). It’s a terrible tragedy for us all and God Bless."
