Nick Saban Picks Boston College Upset Over Michigan State on College GameDay

Nick Saban, now a college football analyst, made headlines by picking Boston College to upset his former team Michigan State, despite Michigan State being a 3.5-point favorite. This pick surprised many given Saban's history with the Spartans, but he emphasized his commitment to objective analysis over personal ties. Meanwhile, Alabama, under new coach Kalen DeBoer following Saban's retirement, suffered a notable 31-17 loss to Florida State, leading to public criticism and trolling from Pat McAfee. Saban highlighted Alabama's lack of passion and praised Florida State's effective offense led by quarterback Tommy Castellanos and coordinator Gus Malzahn. The changing dynamics in college football are evident as Alabama struggles to regain dominance and Saban balances his legacy with candid commentary. Additionally, Ole Miss prepares to face Kentucky in SEC play, seeking to improve after a previous loss, underscoring the competitive landscape in college football this season.
