Paul Finebaum says he would not bet on Alabama to go undefeated this season
Will Alabama go undefeated again? Paul Finebaum won’t be taking that bet.
During one of his recent episodes, Finebaum was having a back and forth with a caller when the subject of Alabama’s upcoming season came up.
The way the show host sees it, it’s asking a lot for Bryce Young to step in and carry the team to yet another undefeated season.
“You’ve never done it when it really matters, and do I think he can do it, yeah? Do I think he can do it, and win 12 games? I’m not so sure about that,” Finebaum said.
That’s when the caller responded by predicting Young would be the SEC’s best quarterback and would find himself in the Heisman Trophy race next season.
“You really believe that? I know you’re a Bama fan but that’s… quite a leap,” Finebaum responded.
“I’m just trying to be realistic. I think Alabama if you gave me the Vegas odds, do I think Alabama is going to be undefeated or will lose a game, I would probably take lose a game.”
