Paul Finebaum Names CFB Coach Who 'Won't Survive' A Week 3 Loss

Many college football analysts believe the clock has already struck midnight on Billy Napier's head coaching stint with the Florida Gators.

Two games into his third season, Napier is 12-15 overall and has failed to live up to expectations in Gainesville. The Gators host the Texas A&M Aggies in Week 3 and college football analyst Paul Finebaum says a loss here would ensure this as Billy Napier’s last season as Florida’s head coach.

“I think ‘must-win’ is really an understatement,” Finebaum said while talking to Greg McElroy on “ Always College Football .” “I think should Billy Napier fail to win this game and Florida loses again, I don't see how he can survive."

Napier faces off against another head coach who’s starting out his season 1-1 in Mike Elko. However, Finebaum says there is much more pressure on Florida’s head coach than on the Aggies.

“All the goodwill Napier found in the offseason, and he found a lot, went out the window," Finebaum said. "There’s virtually no confidence in this program without a win and a win against Texas A&M doesn’t really mean anything, but it stops the hemorrhaging."

Saturday’s matchup will be the conference opener for both teams. Kickoff is set for September 14 at 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
