Alabama: Paul Finebaum on Kalen DeBoer: 'Most smart football people know he's an e…

Alabama · LSU

At least, elite came from his mouth, citing “smart football people.” Not only that, Alabama and DeBoer are on track to return to the CFP.

And that has not been solved by yet another win in Tiger Stadium. I think the only negativity on that is Alabama fans expect to win in Tiger Stadium and expect to beat Lane Kiffin.

The difference this time is that this Lane Kiffin was at a different level than he’s ever been before, much thanks to the media, he had been propped up. “Much thanks to football analysts who told us all until we were deaf in the ears that this you don’t want to play this LSU team.

In fact, despite criticism since DeBoer isn’t Nick Saban, Finebaum called DeBoer “elite.” I heard it all morning Saturday from my friends on the desk, and it turned out that you do want to play this LSU team because for whatever reason, and I’ll leave it to smarter people than me, Lane Kiffin just cannot beat Alabama.
