FOX Sports analyst Skip Bayless is known for his often ridiculous hot takes.
However, on Wednesday’s Skip and Shannon: Undisputed show, Bayless may have said something ridiculous even by his standards.
Bayless claimed Alabama was lucky it didn’t have to play Vanderbilt this year, taking a shot at Alabama coach Nick Saban in the process, much to the chagrin of cohost Shannon Sharpe:
“Saint Nick? Ain’t Nick is what he is,” Bayless said. “He would give up 400 yards passing to my Vanderbilt quarterback.”
Notably, Bayless is a Vanderbilt alum. However, it’s unclear if this was just the ramblings of an overzealous Vanderbilt graduate or a play to get more ratings for the show.
It’s possible Vanderbilt could keep things close against the Crimson Tide, but considering Saban’s crew beat Kentucky 34-6 and Vanderbilt lost to the Wildcats 20-13, Bayless’s claims are questionable at best.
