‘Can they both lose?’: Alabama fan Justin Thomas calls Texas-Georgia SEC title game a ‘lose-lose’

Justin Thomas is as big a fan of the Alabama Crimson Tide as anyone out there.

His Tide football team, however, is not in the SEC title game Saturday. Instead, his 8-3 Alabama squad will sit back and watch Texas and Georgia battle it out in Atlanta. All three seem to be in the 12-team College Football Playoff field but JT was asked if he’s rooting for Texas, assuming a healthy hatred for the Georgia Bulldogs.

“My hate? Well, I don’t really like Texas, either. I’m kind of in a lose-lose in that game, I don’t know who I want to win. I mean, it’s good for the conference.

He then asked: “Can they both lose?”
