He’s got some entertaining reasons for his Week 13 picks.
Barkley showed up to the Tigers’ campus with an Auburn-colored «We want Bama» shirt and offered his unparalleled takes on the different Week 13 matchups.
Through maybe not the best choice of words, he described the Florida-Florida State game — something not even their fans want to watch — as «two ugly girls fighting,» and said Michigan was guaranteed to beat Ohio State because everyone is picking the Buckeyes. He’s also pulling for Washington State over Washington because Mike Leach is his favorite college coach.

On the show, he also brought up the spectacular Iron Bowl finish from 2013, reminding everyone that a few years ago, «it was the ‘Kick-Six.’ Today, it’s gonna be the kick ass.»

While Barkley was on campus Saturday, the school also unveiled a statue honoring him and his achievements while playing basketball there.
