The 2025 college football season presents a great chance for teams to reclaim their former glory.

Paul Finebaum has a hot take about Texas football's Arch Manning after his confident "red dot" take on the sport.

Let's just say that Paul is more than a little confident in Marcus Freeman and Notre Dame's chances at Hard Rock Stadium. “I want to talk about one team here, because I am nervous,” Finebaum said Sunday afternoon.

College football is home to many prominent coaches. However, only three have won a national championship: Ryan Day of the Ohio State Buckeyes, Kirby Smart of the Georgia Bulldogs and Dabo Swinney of the Clemson Tigers.

The LSU-Clemson matchup is expected to become one of the most watched games of Week 1 as college football season officially kicks off on Aug 30 for all the power teams in the country.

As if there wasn't riding on the game already, college football analyst Paul Finebaum just added another level of pressure to the game. Finebaum, who is no stranger to polarizing sports takes, is not on the side of people believing in the new and improved 'Canes team that features Beck at quarterback.

The SEC will begin its college football season with sixteen games from Thursday night through Sunday afternoon. However, the one set for Friday night will have the attention of Paul Finebaum when Auburn goes on the road to play at Baylor.
