It’ll be interesting seeing him pick Bama games.
I don't think he'll pick Bama games. You know how ESPN doesn't let Kirk pick games that he's calling? Well, based on Saban's continued access to the Bama program, I imagine they won't allow him to pick Bama games so as to not create any issues in Vegas.
Like, if Saban picked against Bama, but everyone else had Bama as a favorite, people would be like, "What does Saban know!? Is there an injury that hasn't been disclosed to the public!?"
It's probably easiest for everyone involved if he just gives a "key to the game" for Bama games, rather than picking them.

I see no evidence this is actually happening. This announcement solidifies that.

This is one thing that I just don't get. Herbstreit picking a team to win or lose that he is calling has zero bearing on the actual game.
I get trying to appear neutral, but come on.
