Hometown Sports: Lou Saban Dies

Former Bills coach Lou Saban has died. Saban coached the Bills to two American Football League championships in the mid-60s. He passed away early Sunday morning at his home in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina at age 87. Saban had two tenures in Buffalo, the first from 1962 to 1965 and then 1972 to 1976. It was during his stint in the 70's, O'J. Simpson set the NFL single-season rushing record in 1973. Despite his success, Saban is not on the team's Wall of Fame at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
