Of course, we've known this for a loooong time, but he's had a special run this College Football season of "going against the grain" and bad-mouthing the SEC, a trend that has become quite fashionable among sports-hipster douchebags since probably 2011. However Colin's latest antics culminated in this tweet he issued just after midnight this morning: Words are wise men's counters, but the money of fools.

How does it say like 7 PM for you? Mine says he tweeted it out at a little after midnight. Weird.

Move to FOX must not be working well for Colin. Got to grab some ratings somehow.

Maybe the Doctor who botched his nosejob was from Alabama. Seriously, I'm not saying for sure he's gone under the knife, but his face looks like it was whittled by Gepetto.

He probably doesn't really believe it. His job, just like Kanell, Bayless, Travis, etc, is to rile people up. They don't have to give their real opinions, they just have to be somebody's villain. It's still television, people are more hooked when there is someone to get behind and someone to hate. Get behind the guy arguing your point, hate the guy that riles you up. Excellent business strategy.

I definitely agree that they are hired personas more than anything. That said, I've heard much more consistency from the likes of Kanell and Travis (although maybe not Bayless) than I have from Cowherd. The guy gets everything wrong and will always jump from one side of an issue to the other just to hedge his bets. I've seen him praise Bama and the SEC as "hard working" and even champion their superiority as recently as last season and now he claims that both are running on the fumes of reputation.

Yep. He's the same troll that said Auburn would win back to back national championships after the Kick Six and that Malzhan would own Saban for years to come. Funny how Auburn is now 14-12 and 0-2 vs Saban since then.

Heather Dinich is about as bad. I get the troll game that Colin/Skip (Bayless) play. However, Heather is just a dumbass. I don't get that woman at all.

Yeah, seriously. Maybe she ran into Bama baggage in her college days.

Can't tell you how many times after this week I heard her say that Alabama's win over Auburn wasn't pretty and that Alabama ESCAPED Auburn. I say in capital letters because she said it twice emphatically.


Then the next segment has her praising Clemson's 5 point win over the worst team in the SEC.

What else do you expect from someone who covers the ACC...They talk about how good clemson looked, and I just say UGA set the complete percenage at 24 of 25. Not to mention that just got beat by a FCS team the week before yet the number 1 team in the nation only won by 5.

Alabama give up less than 200 yards to auburn if you exclude that 77 yard td pass that #24 blow.

I mean honestly it's not like Bama is undefeated. I would have y'all in my top 4 if I were voting but it's not completely insane not to IMO.

As long as they beat Florida, don't know how any sane person could leave 'em out of the top 4, not this year. What 4 teams could anyone logically put above them? The PAC-12 champ will have at least 2 losses...Notre Dame has 2 losses...OU is the only 1-loss team in the Big 12 and, while they're a dangerous team right now, their 1 loss was to a very bad Texas team...Ohio State can't win the Big 10, has 1 win against a ranked team, and only 2 wins against Power 5 teams that have a winning record.

I could logically see an undefeated ACC champion Clemson and, conceivably, the winner of the Big 10 CG being rated ahead of Bama...OU is currently a popular pick and while I wouldn't put 'em ahead, others might...that would leave Bama, at worst, as the #4...who else could you possibly put ahead of 'em (again, providing that they beat UF)?
