Speaker 3: Charnie's get the big win tonight.

14
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: We talked about how tough he was sometimes quarterbacks you

15
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 1: gut it out like he did.

16
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 3: Incredible night for him, big hero he was.

17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: You gotta hear his postgame interview coming up in twenty minutes.

18
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 4: Pretty good, deep, prediculous.

19
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: It is awesome. But it's very rare that the NFL

20
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: has to share headlines with college football. Right once in

21
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: a while, when you get to the semi finals of

22
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:17,919
Speaker 1: the playoff. Okay, yeah, but today, in the last twenty

23
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: four hours, is one of those days because of the

24
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: hecknicness and the craziness of what we saw with the

25
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:28,199
Speaker 1: final college football playoff poll that came out, leaving Notre

26
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: Dame out Miami and Notre Dame flip flopping when neither

27
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 1: team played. James Madison is in, Tulane is in. Duke

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: does not get in even though they won, they have

29
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: five losses. Alabama somehow finds a way to get in.

30
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: They get blown out in the conference championship game, doesn't matter.

31
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: It has been all sorts of epic fails for college

32
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: football in the last twenty four hours.

33
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 3: Right, But the one.

34
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: Sympathetic subject, at least up until today was no Tre Dame. Right, you,

35
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: Notre Dame incredibly sympathetic. Right, Everybody felt bad they got

36
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: left out because clearly, look, in no world does anybody

37
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: think James Madison should be in the playoff over Notre Dame.

38
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 5: No.

39
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 4: I mean, look, they were I think either the fourth

40
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 4: or fifth favorite in terms of betting odds as of

41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 4: last week. In terms of just what the team is

42
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 4: and how they're constructed. They've got a Heisman finalist in Love, Right,

43
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 4: all of those things coming to this in terms of

44
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 4: sympathetic figures, what you said with.

45
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: Notre Dame being a team that the two losses and

46
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: look your two laws. You lost to Miami. I get

47
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: the Miami had to get in over them Alabama getting in,

48
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: that's a thing. But you want the best twelve teams.

49
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: Best twelve teams didn't get in, no matter how you

50
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: want to cut it into. Best twelve teams did not

51
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: get in. Because you decided we're gonna do this, then

52
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna take the top five the conference winners. Okay,

53
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 1: Tulane and James Madison. It's really difficult. But Notre Dame

54
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: had all the sympathy, right, Notre Dame had all the

55
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: sympathy after it came out. How does Notre Dame not

56
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: get in? I don't understand. As I said, it would

57
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: have been a great TV show to have like presidential

58
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,119
Speaker 1: debate style Freeman and Krystal ball and debor all debating

59
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: with a moderator town hall who should get in and

60
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: who shouldn't get in? The play right, That would have

61
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: been a great show.

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 4: Remember all those weeks ago we were talking about whether

63
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 4: Calin de Bor was gonna get himself fired.

64
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: But after today, Notre Dame and not only has gone

65
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: full heel. It's been the biggest turn probably since Anakin Skywalker,

66
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: and at least it took Anakin a little bit to

67
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: go from Hey, I'm the hero, I'm gonna save the

68
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna save the Force to Wow, dude, this guy's

69
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: Darth Vader Man.

70
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 3: Sorry spoiler, we got to get rid of this guy like.

71
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: This is an incredible heel turn by Notre Dame in

72
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: a very short amount of time.

73
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 4: It's like Grandpa and Willie Wonka. Oh, you like him

74
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 4: until you don't. Ah, he realized he's evil. So everybody

75
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 4: feels bad for Notre Dame. Right, feels bad for Notre Dame.

76
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 4: Then what happens, Well, last night, Notre Dame says, no,

77
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 4: we're not going to a game. Not gonna do it.

78
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: They want to sit here. Insite players would opt out,

79
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be the same. Yeah, forget about the seniors

80
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: who play their whole career. Yeah, you don't want to

81
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: go to a bowl game for them. No, I'm holding

82
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: my breath because I'm upset. Okay, fine, you should probably

83
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: go to a bowl game. It's a lot of these

84
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: guys last chance to play football. But no, you want

85
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: to play politics.

86
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 3: I get it. I get it. You're mad at.

87
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: ESPN because ESPN did nothing but hate on Notre Dame

88
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: and all the things that have gone on, and you

89
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: don't want them in and you're replaying games where they lost.

90
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: All the last time. All right, all right?

91
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: Then today you get ad Pete Bavaqua on The Dan

92
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: Patrick Show and the two things that he let go.

93
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 3: You're like, are you kidding me? Bavaqua says that.

94
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 1: The decision for next year has kind of already been

95
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: made in that they've received assurances that if they're a

96
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: top twelve team next year, they're in the playoff no

97
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: matter what.

98
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 3: Oh wait, oh really, all that must be notic Is

99
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 3: this a handshake deal is?

100
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 4: Or is this you just putting it into the atmosphere

101
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 4: to see what no committee member wants to try to

102
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 4: refute it.

103
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: We're elitist, we're no Tre Dame. We're better than you

104
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: and we know it. They're the Globo Jim of college football.

105
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: We're better than you and we know it. Why Why

106
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 1: wouldn't Ohio State get that? Why doesn't Michigan get that?

107
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 4: I think that's part of the reason that some of

108
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 4: the sympathy might have been tempered.

109
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 3: We want. We don't want to join a conference.

110
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: We don't want to play a conference championship game, but

111
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: we want to get We want to be judged differently

112
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 1: than every other school.

113
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 3: Right, We're not to Dame. We're elitist and we know it.

114
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: Right, So that's enough to make you go wow, man,

115
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: come on, dude, you live in reality.

116
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 3: You know we don't want to play another game.

117
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: We still want to be a be independent. And then

118
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: Bavaqua just does a one eighty on it when he

119
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: tells Dan Patrick how upset he was that the ACC

120
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: who was there conference partner in a.

121
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: Lot of sports.

122
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: But wait, I thought, you want to be judged by

123
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: yourself without joining a conference and get an assurance to

124
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: get in. No, no, no, now they want to be part

125
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: of the ACC, because now Bavaqua is very upset at

126
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: how the ACC pushed other schools over Notre Dame when

127
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: it came to the arguing that was done in the

128
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: last week.

129
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 6: I have tremendous respect for Miami, you know, great team,

130
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 6: great school, but we were mystified by the actions of

131
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 6: the conference to attack you know, their biggest really business

132
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 6: partner in football and a member of their conference. In

133
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,559
Speaker 6: twenty four of our other sports. I wouldn't be honest

134
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 6: with you if I didn't say that they have certainly

135
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 6: done permanent damage to the relationship between the conference in

136
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 6: Notre Dame.

137
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: Okay, so Notre Dame is upset that the ACC pushed

138
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: their own schools ahead of Notre Dame and who should

139
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: be included in the playoff? Just understand, Oh, we're pushing

140
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: Miami or are other schools over you?

141
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 3: You're upset about that.

142
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 1: You're upset that you put out Did ACC put out

143
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: a tweet that of course they're going to back their school, right?

144
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: I didn't understand like mystified, an attacked or whatever else,

145
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: you know, talking about the replay of the game.

146
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 3: It's your network. It's the big moment for your network. Now.

147
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 4: Do we can argue about how they handled the tiebreaker

148
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 4: and all this stuff that could have solved all of

149
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 4: these mysteries, But that's not for twenty twenty five. In

150
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 4: this case, you have a full partner. You have a

151
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 4: member school of your conference in all sports, you know,

152
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 4: and including the important one of what's that one football

153
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: to where everybody gets a piece of a really sweet, juicy,

154
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: glorious oversized pie.

155
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 3: Whereas if you get in.

156
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 4: Oversized pie okay. Whereas if you get in I get nothing.

157
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 4: I get to say, hey, they're part of the track

158
00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 4: and field championships for the conference. Later on fotball, I

159
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 4: get nothing. Ye I get the well then on again,

160
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 4: off again relationship they have in those other twenty four sports,

161
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 4: not including football. So yeah, the idea that I'm propping

162
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 4: up a resume that includes what's that, Oh yeah, beating

163
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 4: you get you mad, get over yourselves.

164
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: When I saw this, this is where I said, you

165
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: know what, now, I want Notre Dame to get left

166
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: out of everything.

167
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 3: I heard it live and just want to started laughing.

168
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: I want them to get left out of that. I

169
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: want them to get left out of field hockey. I

170
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: want to get left out of soccer. I want them

171
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: to get left out of pickleball. I get left out

172
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: of everything. They partner with the ACC and right because clearly,

173
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: you know what they want to give you something a

174
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: little bit different. They want out of this agreement with

175
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: the ACC.

176
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 4: Right.

177
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: They want out of this because they want to be

178
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: able to partner with a conference that has a future,

179
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: and the ACC but they have a future. Who I

180
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: don't know, man, they need to be a little bit more,

181
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: a little bit more selfish, a little bit more SEC

182
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: and big ten. Likely you may be upset with the

183
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: big ten in the SEC and how much they talk

184
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,959
Speaker 1: about how important they are and everybody else can go

185
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: kick rocks, but the ACC needs a little bit of that.

186
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: They need to Hey, we got some big teams, man,

187
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 1: We got Miami in Florida State and Clemson. We're big

188
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 1: boys too, man. They need a little bit of that,

189
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: right And.

190
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 4: I also don't have. Some of it goes back to

191
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 4: the tie breaking whatever else is knowing that the landscape

192
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 4: is dominated from immediate perspective, coverage, powerhouse teams, all that

193
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 4: by the big ten at SEC. You need to do

194
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 4: everything you can in your power to protect your little

195
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 4: fief down right, and make sure you're fortified that when

196
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 4: you're being compared, contrasted, included or not, you put yourself

197
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 4: in the best position. And that's where they have failed

198
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 4: with the look ahead and foresight in the conference.

199
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: They I don't know what kind of future the ACC has,

200
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: and no tre Dame doesn't. So this is also a

201
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: shoehorn into Hey, we want to get out of this

202
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: agreement now for whatever reason, we want to get out.

203
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 3: We want to get out of this.

204
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: But mainly it's it's just I saw this, I said,

205
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: this is such. This is Notre Dame on brand to

206
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: a t, where it's we are better than all of

207
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: you and we don't care. We are elitist, we are

208
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: above the fray, and we want it how we want it.

209
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: We don't want to play nice with anybody. We don't

210
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: want to say, hey, we can all get rich here. No, no, no, no,

211
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: we want everything. And really they want to be part

212
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: of a conference, but now they don't want to be

213
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: part of it. We want to be part of a conference.

214
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: We want to be part here and get all this,

215
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: but now we're mad at you. But when it comes

216
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: to being part of a conference, no, no, we don't

217
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 1: want to actually join a conference to play a conference

218
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: championship game. We want to be able to just be

219
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: judged and get a berth in the playoffs without having

220
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 1: to worry about that like they want. This is so

221
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: incredibly outlandish behavior that I don't know that they live

222
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: in reality, right, Like Notre Dame.

223
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Notre Dame is awesome.

224
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: If Notre Dame was really that big of a draw,

225
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: If Notre Dame was that great. They would have found

226
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: a way in. They would have found a way in

227
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: over a couple.

228
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 3: Of those teams.

229
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: Right, So I think Notre Dame is looking at their

230
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: at Lansco or we really as popular? We really that team?

231
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: Are we really that guy? But they think are and

232
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: they want to act that way. And I'm sorry, but

233
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: I'm done with that. I'm done with Notre Dame. We

234
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: want to be independent all but oh we kind of

235
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 1: want to join, but only when it benefits us. They

236
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: are in it for nobody but themselves, and they're over

237
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: the top with it.

238
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 3: Right.

239
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: All of the schools are like Michigan's in it for themselves,

240
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: Buyer State, it is, Alabama is. But when they're so

241
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: over the top and in your face about it, yeah,

242
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: it rubs me the wrong way. So yeah, I want

243
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: to see them get left out of everything. Now, left

244
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: out of everything. We're above everything else in college football?

245
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: Why not just say, hey, next year, if we're in

246
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: the top twelve, give us a national championship.

247
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 3: Why should we even have to play those games?

248
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: Why we should have to play Ohio State or Texas

249
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: in some kind we no, no, no, not we We

250
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: had a tough enough sky.

251
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 3: We played Navy.

252
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean, come on, we played Syracuse, We played

253
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: some of these tough teams. Just make us a national

254
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: If we finish in the top twelve, we're the national champions.

255
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 3: Just what, just say, why don't you want that? It's

256
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 3: just laughable.

257
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 4: You want to be independent, and with that comes is

258
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 4: fraught with some issues. Now you look at the composition

259
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 4: of these committees that are making these decision. You got

260
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 4: a couple of people that are football people and the

261
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 4: rest are lobbyists for lack of a better term. Right,

262
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 4: they're trying to figure out how things work best for

263
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 4: the conference with which they're affiliated, which means you need

264
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 4: to see it at that table, and you do because well,

265
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 4: Marcus Freeman was on the Today Show the other day

266
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 4: doing his stump speech, but VAK was on with Dan

267
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 4: Patrick in the morning giving his you know, crime a river.

268
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 4: You might as well have had a guy with a

269
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 4: violin behind him as he did it and started talking

270
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 4: tough about the conference and everything else.

271
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 3: It's like you're not in it.

272
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 4: So their job is to stand for their conferences as

273
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 4: everybody was in that building, which is why you're always

274
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 4: going to have all these issues. And it's going to

275
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 4: be fraught with controversy. He's definite a perfect system. You

276
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 4: had it in terms of the numbers, but you couldn't argue.

277
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 4: You then wanted to argue about coefficients and how that

278
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 4: worked out. Right, There's no perfect solution. There's always going

279
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 4: to be problem unless you go undefeated. Just don't get

280
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 4: to that point. Don't let it go to the because

281
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 4: as soon as you do, it's done. And in this case,

282
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 4: when it got muddy, you know, you got you had

283
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 4: the opportunity to go to the trump card, which was

284
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 4: always Now we compare them side to side, head to head,

285
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 4: and you get left out and that's the end of it.

286
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 4: But all of it brought on by the fact that

287
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 4: the independence and the schedule, and we can do all

288
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 4: of that.

289
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 3: You lost the two.

290
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 4: Games off the front and by a total of four points,

291
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 4: and I would argue, yeah, you're one of the top

292
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 4: teams in the country.

293
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, this is the way.

294
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 4: It's fuzzy math, as we love to say on the show.

295
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 3: To where you lose.

296
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: Now, I will say this positive for Notre Dame because

297
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: this is a positive for the rest of college football.

298
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 1: As I always say when something big, controversial, happens to

299
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: one of the big movers and shakers in a game,

300
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: a popular team. That's when we get changed is effected.

301
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: Right when we got instant replaying Major League Baseball, when

302
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: the Yankees were involved in a game where a home

303
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: run went off the foul pole and it was we

304
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 1: could go back and look at it again. Hey, and

305
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: if all the Yankees we got changed, right, no tre

306
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: Dame getting left out of the playoff. We are one

307
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: hundred percent going to a sixteen team playoff next year.

308
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 1: All the difficulties that college football had this year, all

309
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: the different conference commissioners. For some reason, I don't know

310
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: how people can't get on board with the fact that

311
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: way we can all make more money with more games

312
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: and more teams in the playoff. I don't know how,

313
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: but anyway, that's reality. No tre Dame getting left out.

314
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: They will magically, they will wave a magic wand and

315
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: they will magically find a way to settle all their

316
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: grievances and say, hey, guess what, sixteen teams in the

317
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: playoff next year, So this doesn't happen again.

318
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 4: Well, to be fair, they've already evidently been guaranteed in

319
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 4: play exactly.

320
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: But so this doesn't happen, and what if Notre Dame

321
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: is fourteen next year? Right, But just because like when

322
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: it happens to the big teams, you get changed. If

323
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: this happened to Texas Tech, if this happened to Wisconsin,

324
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: and this happened to even a team like Auburn or no,

325
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: it's not happening, but it happens in Nore Dame and

326
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: it's so front and center, and they've they've sucked all

327
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: the oxygen out of the story because it's Notre Dame.

328
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: We will get changed. That will happen next year. It

329
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: will be an easy decision. It's not gonna be well,

330
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna look at sixteen. We're gonna see if it

331
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: works for us. It's gonna be one day you're gonna

332
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: wake up sources NCAA to go to sixteen teams. It's

333
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: gonna be formalizing a vote on Friday, and then Friday

334
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: we've got a sixteen team playoff. Because it's Notre Dame,

335
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: it will happen.

336
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Sin it's a lot of the big talent

337
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 4: that we're part of the reveal and debate shows about this,

338
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 4: and we're very vocal saying we should just abolish the rankings.

339
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 4: A lot of resumes are flying into networks right now

340
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 4: because with an expanded playoff field means there's a lot

341
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 4: more teams that are gonna be fighting for the back

342
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 4: end of it at two loss and three loss teams.

343
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 4: So you know you have more debate and more attention

344
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 4: on those shows than ever. So yeah, get those resumes

345

Speaker 3: We're gonna go back into our song. Yeah, okay, you

Speaker 3: have to.

397
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 1: I gotta think I don't know this, but I got

398
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: to think that Creed does this in concert around the holidays,

399
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: Like if they're doing a holiday concert somewhe where, it's

400
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: one of those hey, you know, forgotten bands of the

401
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 1: aughts that you embarrass you bought tickets to see, Like

402
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: if they're doing this, hey, you know, the singer comes

403
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: Scot Staff comes out and he puts on a hat

404
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: like they were gonna do this, and we do it

405
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:18,640
Speaker 1: like this, and then you go into the song.

406
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 3: As it's Jason, you should reach out and tell him

407
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 3: to do it? Yeah, what about you do that? Which

408
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 3: you do this version?

409
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: But then the thing is people want to hear higher

410
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 1: the regular version as well. So maybe I don't know,

411
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you close with this like that's one. Oh yeah,

412
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: that's what you do. You come out for your encore

413
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: and you close with that and everybody says good night.

414
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 3: Yeah that I like that better. Is he still with Creed?

415
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 3: I don't know.

416
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 1: I can't believe they would say no to were touring

417
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: and making money. I mean, I just as we've.

418

420
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 3: I don't know.

421
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: At some point, every every band fights with their I mean,

422
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: tell me been where they haven't loved, Whether they always

423
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: love their lead singer.

424
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 3: It's fair.

425
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: I guess Rolling Stones, I guess okay, that's it. Yeah, okay,

426
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: led Zeppelin, Mack and Keef, Yeah, okay.

427
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 4: I mean Zeppelin they love each other because they don't.

428
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 4: They haven't had to deal with each other for many

429
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 4: many years.

430
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: I always felt like the who everybody hated each other.

431
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 1: I always felt like that.

432
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, there were always those reports that they

433
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 4: were bailing out and whistle okay, okay, and then they

434
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 4: just kind of ran out the string here and down

435
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 4: the stretch, firing and hiring Zach Starkey a couple of

436
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 4: times to drum for him, and and they just ran out.

437
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 4: I think they finally played their final show.

438
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: All right, Taja, I want you to mash up Last

439
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: Christmas with Boris the Spider.

440
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 3: Okay, mash yes.

441
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 1: So we have two postgame soundbites you have to hear

442
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: from Monday Night Football. The first is Justin Herbert, charges quarterback,

443
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 1: who had a really I tell you he had a

444
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 1: heroic game. Umber of times he got hit and he

445
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 1: got sacked forty six times tonight.

446
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 3: Seem like, yeah, he was hit on every play.

447
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: This is just Justin Herbert's life this season because of

448
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 1: the offensive line injuries. Really, Joe Walt might be the

449
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: MVP of the NFL.

450
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 4: You have been standing for that going on about six

451
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 4: or seven weeks at this point.

452
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 1: So not a great night statistically for him, But every

453
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: time they needed to get down and get a score,

454
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: they got a score. Now number one in your heart,

455
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: Herbert was awesome. But after the game, when Laura Rutlis

456
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: was looking to interview him, Justin Herbert had no desire

457
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,479
Speaker 1: to talk to anybody following their victory.

458
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 3: I'd like to watch.

459
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 5: The interception there that's steal this game for you guys

00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 5: to get this win.

461
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the defense fight is incredible.

462
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 9: You know.

463
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: A second in the first thing she goes, she goes

464
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: up to him and she says, hey, Justin, can we

465
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: talk to you? He says, I just want to go

466
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: celebrate my teammates. Yeah, I know, I know, but but

467
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: but let's try. Let's go back and we're back in

468
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: a bit. All right, lot's good, I.

00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 5: Know, talk like, what was it like to watch the

613
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe like three or four of them and the

614
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 1: other three or four you don't like, and maybe this

615
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: jumps up a bit in the top ten.

616
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,359

Speaker 3: have been the follow up. How do you rank your kids?

618
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 1: Maybe it's kind of like college football play if you

619
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:53,919
Speaker 1: have your top twelve, but you have to rank a

620
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: couple of games in the top You can't just rank kids.

00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 3: Are they trending towards a top five finish?

630
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 4: Sure?

631
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 3: Are we looking at barely hanging on?

632
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 4: Hey?

633
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: Which one of your kids would be in the hypothetical

634
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: six to eleven battle against this game, like which which

635
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: kid would you have?

636
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 3: Which one's getting a bye?

637
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 4: Four?

638
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: Which four things get a bye? Because if your marriage

639
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: doesn't get a bye, whoa are you? I think your

640
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: marriage has to get a by at least two of

641
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: your kids have to get a bye. Maybe you put

642
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: one game in. They put the national chance national title

643
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: gets in there. Yeah, but I know this is the

644
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: type of game though, that I know he loves, right,

645
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: He loves the toughness of his quarterback. Because find someone

646
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: in your life and for those that haven't heard of go,

647
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: go and just YouTube it. Just just search.

648
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 4: Jim Harbaugh talks about Justin Herbert. I don't know that

649
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 4: you've ever had a coach gush over a player like this.

650
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

651
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 4: Right, it's the antithesis of the Bill Belichick Tom Brady relationship.

652
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 4: But so I think Justin Herbert might trump some of

653
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 4: his kids. So to see him play with this level

654
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 4: of toughness after a surgery and then Cameron Dicker finished

655
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 4: drives with big field goals and your defense plays tough,

656
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 4: I could believe him that this win actually ranks highly

657
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 4: for him because of those factors.

658
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: His guy, Justin Herbert Exit about a Fresca exit swollen dome.

664
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 13: forty four years old, hasn't played in five years, and

665
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,000

Speaker 3: Up in the studio yourself, I'm your poppy tulo.

711

Speaker 7: Now that is not John Cena.

712
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 3: That was Bill Belichick. Was it really Bill Belichick? Yeah

713
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 3: that was Bill Belichick. Yeah yeah, see now people would know.

714
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: See now though you have AI, you could just get

715
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick doing a Michael boublayesque version of you.

716
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 3: Don't need to just cut it and put it to

717
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 3: That's scary.

718
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can just get it like boom, like I

719
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: can't believe Tyser doesn't put that together already. Yeah, I

720
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 1: want to watch more plurbis on the other side of

721
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: the screen while you guys are working.

722
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 3: I love curbs.

723
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, Jason Smith Mike Harmon live from the

724
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio studios. Look, we get a little bit

725
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: more NFL coming up in a minute, But look, today

726
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 1: it's going to This is not gonna be the end

727
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: of the story because the controversy surrounding the college football

728
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 1: Playoff and how awful done it was is going to

729
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: continue to evolve over the next coming days until we

730
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: get to the games. But I don't think there's anybody

731
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: that could deny that this is an absolute epic fail

732
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: top to bottom. You know, you've decided to let teams

733
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: in that aren't part of the top twelve, Notre Dame

734
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: getting left out, Notre Dame Miami flipping when neither of

735
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: them played last week. It's it's just done so hamhandedly

736
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: by the College FOOTBA Playoff committee. And what I really

737
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: had a hard time understanding was a number of people

738
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 1: in the last twenty FROs that were completely taken aback

739
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 1: and then shocked by.

740
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,800
Speaker 4: This because it was just a matter of what the issue.

741
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 1: When we previewed this last week, I said, you know what,

742
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: I don't think people are understanding just how crazy of

743
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 1: a blank show this is going to be. Because college

744
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: football is a sport with no rules. There are no

745
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: rules in college football. There's no ruling governing body. It's

746
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 1: just conferences making their own decisions. There are no rules.

747
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: N il is here transfer Portal era, there are no rules.

748
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: So in a sport with no rules, do you really

749
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: think we're gonna get Hey, the College Wall Playoff is

750
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: gonna be done nice and neat and tidy.

751
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 3: Now, uh yeah, not so much. This is completely expected.

752
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: You should have expected it that it was going to

753
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: be this kind of a mess because the sport has

754
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:53,760
Speaker 1: no rules.

755
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 4: Well, no guardrails, no guidelines, and you're in a new forum.

756
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 4: So you're also not able to rely on years upon

757
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 4: years of precedent to say, well, this is how we've

758
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 4: done thing, except for the fact normally, when you've lost

759
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 4: a conference championship game most of the time, virtually all

760
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 4: of the time, you lose at least one or two

761
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 4: slots in the rankings. So as soon as Alabama showed

762
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 4: up at old number nine when they did the reveal,

763
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 4: It's like, oh boy, here we go. So but given

764
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 4: all everything else that transpired thereafter, they slipped out the

765
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 4: back door without Nria mention at this point because it

766
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 4: becomes the discussion of the rest of the cluster. Look,

767
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 4: you got only a couple of football people. Everybody else

768
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 4: is a lobbyist, which means now it's becomes the one

769
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 4: of the great arguments that I'm sure we'll get plenty

770
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 4: of stories. Well, they made a really well reason well

771
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 4: impassioned case here there because they did the break glass

772
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 4: in case of emergency. The head to head was always there,

773
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 4: and they waited until they actually had to play that

774
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 4: card before they actually did so, even the flip flopping there,

775
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 4: are we really that shot?

776
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: No, you shouldn't be this is this is what college again.

777
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 1: If you don't like college football, you wait five minutes. Again,

778
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: there are no rules to this sport. So you should

779
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: have seen that it was gonna be this much of

780
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: a tire fire coming from a mile. I didn't think

781
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,399
Speaker 1: that was that much of a look at it. Look,

782
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: we're ahead of the curve all the time on the show.

783
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 1: I didn't think that was that much out of the curve.

784
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: I thought this is something. Oh yeah, yeah, I know,

785
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:23,879
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right.

786
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 4: This goes back until you actually have a single person

787
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 4: or at the head of the snake that isn't the

788
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:37,839
Speaker 4: SEC commissioner pulling the strings. Then this you're gonna have

789
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 4: recurrences of all of this.

790
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 3: Right, This is.

791
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 4: A nice, sudden, little snapshot as to the world of

792
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 4: chaos in the NIL as it trickles down to the

793
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 4: rest of the bulls as you have a bunch of

794
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 4: opt outs and concerns of that side of things. So yeah,

795
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 4: huge changes in the offing here. Sometimes you gotta take

796
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 4: the pain to get to that next step.

797
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: Now, the other part of it is this, the last

798
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: twenty four hours, you have seen a lot of things. Well,

799
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: with this being butchered so much, it's the end of

800
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 1: the bowl system. It's the end of conference championship games. Right,

801
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: I've seen that. End of conference championship games, end of

802
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: weekly rankings and weekly ranking shows, and all these.

803
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 3: Things are ending now.

804
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 4: As every guy stands up, going, my rankings are really good.

805
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 4: I can't wait to be the predominant. I'm gonna be

806
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 4: the woes of rankings.

807
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 1: Look I get everybody is mad. I understand that. I

808
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: understand everybody's looking for something really crazy to say. None

809
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: of those things are happening. We're gonna have bowls, We're

810
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:48,760
Speaker 1: gonna have weekly shows, We're gonna have conference championship games.

811
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: None of them are going away. All of those things

812
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: are making money. They're all part of what's going on

813
00:37:54,840 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: in college football. This playoff and this final poll, it

814
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 1: just becomes part of the lore of the nil era

815
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: in college football. It becomes a big storyline and a

816
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: big moment. I'm not saying it's not a big moment,

817
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying we're not gonna have changes, because

818
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,399
Speaker 1: there will be some changes, But none of this is ending. Really,

819
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: We're not gonna have com college CHAMPIONSI games are over now. No,

820
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 1: they're not over. Oh when people are gonna opt out

821
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: of bulgames, No, we're still gonna have bowl games. A

822
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: couple of teams opted out, they'll find a way to

823
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: fill those ball games. It's gonna happen. We're still gonna

824
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,879
Speaker 1: have shows. We're not gonna have shows. We're not gonna

825
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: have rankings to argue about. We're not gonna put stuff

826
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,359
Speaker 1: out there that helps the romans of college no preseason

827
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: top twenty five.

828
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 3: Man, come on, it's just stupid, right, So hear I

829
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 3: heard that.

830
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 4: That was almost as dumb as what that some man

831
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,240
Speaker 4: had to say on Dan Patrick has come.

832
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: On, it's just stupid, right. That's ay, Kurt Mavauqua, that's

833
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: just stupid. Now, the one change you know we talked

834
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: about that you were gonna get. We mentioned this earlier

835
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 1: in the hour. You're gonna get to sixteen teams in

836
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 1: college football player for next year because it happened in

837
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. That's a change that will happen. College football

838
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: will change. It's not gonna end stuff just because oh

839
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 1: what a horrible moment. Yeah yeah, okay, great, because what's

840
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: going on. Everybody's talking about college football. It's a big thing.

841
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: They're gonna find a way to turn this in a

842
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: way to make more money. They will put four more

843
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: teams in next year. It's gonna be awesome. We're gonna

844
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: be great. Nothing is going to end. I mean, I

845
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: get that people are mad, and I understand that. So

846
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: I want to give people a couple of days to understand, Hey,

847
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: you sound stupid when you say stuff like that.

848
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 3: But after a.

849
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 1: Couple of days, like, Okay, you understand that that's not

850
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 1: gonna happen. You understand that this this is not gonna

851
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: Oh hey, look a.

852
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 3: Look at that.

853
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: Alabama made it in despite getting blown out, So we're

854
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: not gonna have a wait. That means we can still

855
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: have a conference championship game and teams can still make

856
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: it in when in effect, we kind of saved the

857
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: conference championship games. Oh wait a minute, Wait a minute,

858
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 1: Wait a minute. I mean the ball system was gonna

859
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: be dead for you. Everything's gonna kill the balls that

860
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: we're still playing balls.

861
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 4: It's like the movies and TV shows, like where the

862
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 4: guy repays the debt gun nets in them out?

863

864
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,439
Speaker 1: well one more job and maybe you do something else, right.

865
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, I get you said I was

866
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 3: out after this. It only ends when I say it.

867
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just people want to have crazy talk

868
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,720
Speaker 1: man crazy. But the invention of the playoff was supposed

869
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: to kill off bulls. Yeah everything, what did they do?

870
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 1: They multiplied like rabbits. Teams are still gonna play. Now,

871
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: are balls gonna go out of business and replaced by

872
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: other Bowlders.

873
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 3: Of course that's going.

874
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 4: To be roped into the larger playoff. Maybe, Like there's

875
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 4: lots of things that may change. They ain't going away.

876
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 4: We're still gonna have Bowl games. I'm telling you. Too

877
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 4: many sponsors want their name and brand recognized.
