Everyone in the college football world knows SEC Network’s Paul Finebaum, who has made a name for himself from his caller’s wild antics on his talk show. He’s one of the most recognizable people in sports, and he’s never been one to hold back, as evidenced by his on-air confrontation with Nick Saban back at the 2016 SEC Media Days.
In his latest segment, the ESPN personality decided to take a not-so-subtle jab at the Missouri Tigers following their 51-14 blowout loss to Auburn. When told to “say something positive” about Auburn, Finebaum used the skit to sarcastically praise Missouri and their head coach, Barry Odom.

It’s been a long season for Missouri, who suffered their third consecutive loss — their average margin of loss has been 29 points over the last three weeks.
Finebaum wasn’t just in a “positive state” regarding Missouri, however. When asked about Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelley, Finebaum responded with this:
“He won a big game last night, even though Michigan State is terrible.”
Never change, Paul. Never change.
