The dry admirer, Paul Finebaum


Kalen Deboer's Alabama program has been working to reaffirm itself as a real playoff in 2025 after 31-17 loss in Florida State in week 1. Since then, the Carmesina tide They have rejected, winning all games and now sitting at 3-1.

The state of Florida is also 3-1 after falling on Friday 46-38 in double extension to Virginia. In the last AP survey, Alabama went up to number 10 after the 24-21 victory over ARA-no. 12 Georgia last week, while FSU passed to number 18 after its loss of week 5.

Seeing the roads of the two schools until week 5, Paul Finebaum, Espn, argued that the victory of Florida's state over Alabama at the opening is no longer “impressive”.

“The Alabama team we saw on the first weekend of the season was not the same,” said Finebaum (through CFB Insider Logan B. Robinson).

“And I dare say -trying to equate a loss to Virginia, whatever they are, I appreciate that complement them, in the face of a loss in Georgia it is not the same. I think the AP poll has done well and, I bet that if the Committee met last weekend, they would say the same thing.”

Alabama's resurgence was crucial, as the Marea Crimson began the season in the number 8 national. However, their loss of week 1 at the FSU dropped them to number 21 of week 2, marking their lowest AP ranking since 2008.

Paul Finebaum reflects on the victory of Alabama Week 5 on Georgia

With the victory of Alabama Week 5 on Georgia, Kalen Deboer is 2-0 against Kirby Smart.

When the Marea Crimson continued his rule over the Bulldogs, claiming his tenth victory in the last 11 meetings, Paul Finebaum was high in the squad after the victory of Week 5.

“It was a monumental victory for the school and for Kalen Deboer,” said Finebaum (Via On3). “And being in Athens for two days and seeing all the signs on Nick Saban and the Georgia record is more about Nick Saban than Kalen Deboer.

“This is a remarkable record for someone who has taken as many successes as Kalen Deboer. And until recently as a month ago and many other people. So, I think it is a story of monster.”

Deboer's workforce will now try to avoid a hassle on Saturday when they welcome Vanderbilt de Diego Pavia.
