In a segment on Friday’s episode of “The Paul Finebaum Show,” SEC Network broadcaster Brent Musburger offered his thoughts on Saturday’s showdown of division leaders No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 9 Tennessee.
While he didn’t predict a winner, he indicated who he would pick with the current point spread of -13.5 UA.

Musburger did not name a winner, but did say he expects the game to go to overtime. It would take an unconventional finish for Alabama to beat the current spread (win by 14 points) if the game goes to an overtime period.
While Musburger will be in Gainesville, Fla. calling the Mizzou-Florida game on the SEC Network, one can assume he’ll be keeping a close eye on the Tennessee-Alabama score.
