The most intense game of the week has already begun. It’s Alabama vs. Tennessee, and Kalen DeBoer’s team is already leading the scoreboard with 7-0 in halftime. But hold your horses, as the Vols have already taken a lead of 14-10 against Bama. However, the main highlight of the game turns out to be Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian’s ex-wife Loreal Sarkisian supporting the Saban family and Crimson Tide for today’s game. Surprising right?

Today, ahead of Bama’s showdown against Vols. Loreal Sarkisian took to Instagram to share her heartfelt support towards Nick Saban and his former team, saying, “Mom and Dad, thanks for always supporting #thesabans.” However, this might be a little weird for Steve as he used to work under Nick Saban, and after moving to Texas, both the teams face off a few times, and even their game is anticipated this season since both Bama and Texas are two of the topsides.

Added to that is the fact that the Longhorns are going against the Bulldogs today. A tough game, indeed! Any wishes for that, maybe? It looks like Loreal Sarkisian simply ignored her ex-husband and Texas head coach and chose to support Alabama. That surely puts their relationship in a tricky spot, as they claim to be “friends” even after their divorce.

However, talking about today’s game, both teams are trying really hard to avoid any mistake that causes them their second loss in the ongoing season. Well, Bama successfully maintained a lead over the Tennessee Volunteers till the end of the third half, but the Vols turned the game when Dylan Sampson ran for a 3-yard touchdown, which gave them a lead. But it looks like the game is not going according to the predictions of some analysts. Let’s see what’s that is .

Alabama getting an edge over the Vols

Well, whatever the outcome of today’s game, Paul Finebaum has already given his verdict ahead of the Alabama vs. Tennessee game. Prior to the showdown, Paul Finebaum disclosed his prediction for the game’s winner. Any guesses? Finebaum’s choice of Alabama over the Vols despite being a Tennessee graduate is quite surprising. It looks like he is a fan of remarkable gameplay, and Alabama is one such team.

Last week, Paul Finebaum mentioned on ESPN’s “Get Up” that the outcome of the Bama vs. Vols game will be a tough call for both teams, potentially affecting their playoff dreams. Moreover, Kalen DeBoer might face even more trolling, especially with the Crimson Tide’s inconsistent performance fueling fans’ rage. He mentioned the whole situation, saying the losers of their showdown are going to be “in trouble.” Well, for now, let’s see who emerges as the ultimate winner of today’s game. Till then keep supporting your favorite team.
