College football analyst and talk-show host Paul Finebaum isn't shy about his feelings for the Michigan Wolverines.

He has called their fans a "whiny and sniveling bunch" and suggested they're "from another planet."

On Tuesday, he went back in for more, while taking a shot at Michigan's College Football Playoff hopes in the process. Via Finebaum's Twitter account:

Is Finebaum suggesting that Michigan's recent losses are overshadowed by their brand? Is he suggesting that the Wolverines only pass the eye test with their own fans? Both? It's an interesting picture.

Michigan was ranked fifth in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, dropping two spots after their loss to Ohio State. The Wolverines still have a shot at earning a National Semifinal bid, but they'll likely need either No. 3 Clemson or No. 4 Washington to lose this weekend.

It's fair to say Finebaum would just as soon see Michigan miss out.
