Finebaum calls the battle in the Bayou State a 'Playoff Eliminator' once again, picks his Saturday night winner.
Brian Kelly and the No. 14 ranked LSU Tigers will host the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday night in Death Valley with the pair of programs facing off in a high stakes matchup.
Alabama lost to the Texas Longhorns on Sept. 9 and Tennessee Volunteers on Oct. 19 with the program looking to avoid another conference loss. “The loser of this game says goodbye, adios to the season,” Finebaum told 'SportsCenter.' “Not in the literal sense, but in terms of the CFP ." "It’s hard to believe Alabama out that early,” Finebaum said of a potential loss. “It hasn’t very often, but that game is a high-stakes, loser leaves town.”“What got out of the game more than anything else is just some confidence into the bye week as they get ready for yet another playoff eliminator," Finebaum said on the Matt Barrie Show.
