The debate at the forefront of everyone’s minds this Sunday is whether Alabama or Ohio State will earn the final spot in the College Football Playoff alongside Clemson, Georgia and Oklahoma.
However, to ESPN analyst Booger McFarland, there should be no debate — he’s firmly on Team Alabama.
As you can see in the video below from Sunday morning’s edition of SportsCenter, McFarland says anyone would put their money on Alabama to beat Ohio State, which means the Crimson Tide should get in:

“If you had to take your salary and put it on one of the teams to win, who would you put it on?” he asks. When the host responds that she would bet on Bama, McFarland adds, “So why are we debating this?”
Indeed, if the Tide and the Buckeyes played, Alabama would likely be favored to win. However, the Buckeyes have a conference championship that Alabama doesn’t have, so it will be very interesting to see how Sunday’s selection show plays out.
