Paul Pinebaum is deeply in love with Nick Saban

[danielreid]

[LonghornsLegend]

Finnebaum called this segment an "attack" on Alabama🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🙄

[greg]

Can someone explain to me why Paul loves Alabama? He graduated from Tennessee. He volunteered to go to Tenessee.

[jamesblunt]

D1 college football's playoffs is an absolute joke. 4 teams REALLY? 🙄

[salvadoracosta]

Clemson murdered Alabama in the National Championship. They have done nothing to lose that spot

[ChrisOliver]

Finebaum accuses Stephen A. of favoritism toward Clemson, but he'll defend Alabama to the death.

[NickJTerry]

Why in the world is it impossible for Stephen A to say GEORGIA?🤦🏾‍♂️

[leedavis]

How come no one is talking about the fact that Georgia could very well lose to (12) Auburn next

[dropoffsensei]

Tell Alabama stop playing western Montana community college every week and they might be there. They have no top 10 wins this year, my dawgs got 2

[tnev]

The committee set it up to put them above the loser of the sec championship game. They'll be in at 4 no matter what happens this season.

[SmashTimeProductions]

Every year Alabama schedule is waaay harder than Clemson. This 1 year they have a ok schedule and y’all trying to count them out cause they lost to the team with the best record in the country.

[twodogs]

So Paul finebaum says what you did in the past doesn't matter but he wants to anoint an Alabama team that has beat nobody this year... because of their reputation.,

[kevinlee]

Let Bama fans keep thinking they guarenteed to get in if LSU beat GA in the SEC title game. MARK MY WORDS. If Oregon and Utah both stay with 1 loss until the PAC 12 title THE WINNER WILL LEAPFROG BAMA. The commitee already shown with GA being ranked above Bama that they value "Who have you beaten?" over "Who did you lose to?". Saying you beat the #6 or #7 ranked team in a conference title game trumps ANY Bama win. Bama fans won't listen BUT they'll see 😂
