Idiots like them go out of their way to jump the shark on all of these predictions. It's like they have to be the first guy right about something regardless of how over the top/unrealistic it is. I used to like a few of them because they didn't shy away from certain topics and gave honest opinions. Then they went for shock value and now they can eat a bag of muddy dicks

Yep, Cowherd ruined himself for me.

If I want to hear "hot takes" I can listen to dumbass fans from other teams.

Clay Travis has made a living trying to be the guy who was "first" to predict something. Listen to some of his "takes." The guy is wrong all the time yet he makes 6-7 figures doing that for a living. 10 years ago, he was an attorney who had a humor column about SEC Football. Now he's one of the top "analysts" on Fox Sports. He really has no special knowledge or education that makes him more qualified to give an opinion. Its amazing but he's not the only one. They just move right along and never acknowledge how wrong their "takes" are. I really believe that your average sports fan knows as much as Cowherd, Travis, etc. Hell, Finebaum really isn't good or knowledgeable when you really listen to him. I watched some clip from Fox Sports from last year following the title game and one of their highly paid analysts predicted Arizona State to be in the playoff. Overall the college football media are a bunch of jokes. Makes you appreciate guys like Herbstreit and Rece Davis.

But let's be honest though, Alabama fans make it easy for them. They know what brings in the clicks and bashing Alabama/Saban will do just that.
