Paul Finebaum addressed a growing debate in college football between Alabama and Ohio State as the postseason comes into focus.

On ESPN’s “Get Up” on Monday morning, Finebaum and reporter Heather Dinich discussed the pending ranking on Tuesday night of the Crimson Tide and Buckeyes, and that would come into play if there’s an upset to USC or TCU this weekend. Dinich said Alabama should be ahead of both teams it lost to this season, Tennessee and LSU.

“Are the Buckeyes at No. 5, and Alabama at No. 6, that’s going to tell us a lot,” Dinich said. “That’s going to tell us a lot about what happens if upsets happen.”

Finebaum answered the question, and said Ohio State because of its significant win at Penn State, which he added will be a top 10 team this week. Alabama’s losses are well known, Finebaum said, but what’s the best win for the Tide?

“How about nobody,” he said. “They won at Texas on the second week of the season when the Texas starting quarterback was out for the final 3 quarters and they barely won a last-second field goal. Their other big win was against Ole Miss, which crashed and burned down the stretch. I don’t think either has more than 8 wins and that’s what’s going to keep Alabama out despite the name, and despite Nick Saban.”

Dinich added that Ohio State’s win over Notre Dame, along with the Penn State win, are better than Alabama’s best wins.
