“So with numbers that are provided to us by ESPN Bet, Paul, they've got Alabama's win total at 9.5. You going with more or less? I am going with more, and I know exactly what happened last year in Kalen DeBoer's first season,”
11-4 — Alabama finished the 2025 season 11-4 overall (10-3 regular season, CFP first-round win over Oklahoma, Rose Bowl loss to Indiana), clearing the 9.5-win over.
“this morning. So Paul, let me start with you. Quinn Ewers, quarterback Texas today. The number is 249 and a half passing yards against Arizona State. Are you going more or less? Greeny, I'm going less because I think Texas to win this game needs balance. They don't need Quinn Ewers being Superman. He's had a very unusual season where he's just been on fire, and then other times he cools off. So I think he'll come close to that number, but give me less.”

“Paul, let's go to Ohio State and Oregon. The total we have is 55.5 total points. Are you going more or less in the Rose Bowl? I'm going more because, I mean, we have two of the most explosive teams in the country, arguably the two most talented teams in the country. And Greeny, I think they're going to light up the scoreboard at the old Rose Bowl where”
41-21 — Ohio State beat Oregon 41-21 in the Rose Bowl; combined 62 points clears the 55.5 total.
