1
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: Those of you in the audience who struggle with like

2
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,959
Speaker 1: low blood sugar a lot. You know what it feels

3
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: like when you have low blood sugar. But I didn't

4
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: grow up blood sugar issues. But pretty much everyone has

5
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: those three or four times per year where you just

6
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: get lightheaded or you get really hungry, and you know,

7
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: you get a little shaky. Ideally it doesn't happen right

8
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 1: before you start a show, but it happened for me tonight,

9
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: right before we started the show, so I had pres

10
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: run into the kitchen. It grabbed me a bunch of oreos,

11
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,160
Speaker 1: the blonde oreo kind. So I've just been inhaling those

12
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: things right before the show. Very healthy. So we're jam packed.

13
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 1: We're reasonably stuffed, not double stuffed, but reasonably stuffed. High

14
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: atop of Sagi, downtown Nashville, Tennessee, on this Sunday night,

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: February fifteenth, the year of our lower twenty twenty six,

16
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: hope Valentines well for all of you. I don't know.

17
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: I guess the live chat will tell the tale on

18
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: that one. But there are some big scheduling debates happening

19
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 1: out there. There are some big I don't know. BIG's

20
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: a relative word. But there are some sizeable, some very

21
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: loud college football playoff debates happening, and I'm gonna not

22
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: be distracted by any of it because this is the

23
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: night that we had identified to unveil our brand new,

24
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 1: up to date twenty twenty six college football program rankings.

25
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: They were met with much debate a season ago, and

26
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: so we're not going to shy away from it. And well,

27
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: we're also not going to be distracted by the shiny

28
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: objects here and there, although we will talk about said

29
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: shiny objects later in the show. No, it's time to

30
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: let you know what the best programs in college football are.

31
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: Not to be confused with team the best programs in

32
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: college football. I'll do that in just a second. Got

33
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: some quarterback battles we're gonna be talking about a Morris

34
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: springball gets close to us. But I just want to

35
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: prime ourselves with some early thoughts on that tonight and

36
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: some observations from a trip that I took over the week.

37
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: It wasn't a quick trip, although we stopped at several

38
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: quick trips over to the Broyles Award, which is a

39
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: very very overlooked event. It's not overlooked by the people

40
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: who go to it. But it's overlooked by maybe the

41
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: awards community because it happens in February. But it's smart

42
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: that it happens in February. So I'll talk about that.

43
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: Some observations. Mike Bobo, dude, he doesn't need to coach

44
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: anymore after the weekend I observed him having he doesn't

45
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: need to coach anymore. And that's not a criticism. That's

46
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: just saying Mike Bobo had a really good weekend. So

47
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: I'll talk about that later. They're watching us in Jefferson City, Tennessee, Garner, Iowa, London, England,

48
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: Gulf Shores, Alabama. Thank you guys so much. Just do

49
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: me the quick favor of subscribing. If you have, thank you.

50
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: If you haven't, please do so. And if you think

51
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: you have, just check and make sure. It takes two seconds.

52
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: It costs you nothing, it signs you up for nothing,

53
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: and we appreciate it. Here we go. It is that

54
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: time of year we do this, Jesse. We do this

55
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: once a year, right, yeah, we only do it once

56
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: a year because we ranked teams a whole lot. I mean,

57
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: everyone ranks teams all the time, but does anyone ever

58
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: stop to rank programs. What we do, Bradley, here's your endpoint.

59
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: It's time for us to rerack all the pool balls,

60
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: and let's talk about the college football program rankings. We

61
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: do them on the show once a year. And the

62
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: way we define a program around here is a little

63
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: different than the way we define a team. So college

64
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: football programs, we try and nail them down on a

65
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: few pieces of rolling three year criteria. So we want

66
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: to zoom in on, for example, how good are you

67
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: at talent acquisition over the past several years, Over the

68
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: past three years. We want to know how are you

69
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: doing on field. You know, if you tanked in twenty

70
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: twenty three, but you really surged in twenty four and

71
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: twenty five. We're going to aggregate all that. We're probably

72
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: going to lean a little bit more recency bias. I

73
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: want to know how good your resource pool is you

74
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: broke In other words, we don't want there's no room

75
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: for Pooresi's in the top ten, top twelve of the

76
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: program rankings. Organizational stability matters a lot to me here.

77
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: For example, like Oregon, Oregon's had some churn. They're not

78
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: the only one, but Oregon had an offensive coordinator in

79
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: Kenny Dillingham walk out the door to go be his

80
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: own head coach, and then they brought in will Stein,

81
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: and that showed me they really know what they're doing

82
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: in high RNK calls. Now will Stein is a head coach,

83
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: so that sort of thing. Ryan Day lost two coordinators

84
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: and backfilled them with really solid replacements. So that sort

85
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: of thing matters. And we take all of this stuff,

86
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: we put it in a blender. We add just a

87
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: touch of expectation, just a touch of forward thinking, maybe predictive. Hey,

88
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: where do we think the program's headed, and we pour

89
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: it all out and those are our program rankings. I

90
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: don't think I really left anything out there. Portal and

91
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: recruiting obviously matter combined when it comes to talent acquisition.

92
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: So here's how I see the top ten programs in

93
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: the country. Right now, I think oh Hi State's the

94
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: top program in the country. Ohio State is thirty seven

95
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 1: and six over the past three years. They've got a

96
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: national championship mixed in here. They are a top five

97
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,679
Speaker 1: recruiting program in the country. They're a very very high

98
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: value portal program. Translation, they don't need to flood themselves

99
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: with a bunch of transfers because they recruit and developed

100
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 1: very well. But when they do need to, they can

101
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: be very selective, and they can be very effective in

102
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 1: the transfer portal. And they're just excellent at staffing. I

103
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: don't know that many programs at all are doing it better.

104
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: Just think about what's happened within this past three years

105
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: at Ohio State. You had two coordinator turnover situations just

106
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: this past year. It happened. And then you kind of

107
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: you lose Chip Kelly, who was a foundational piece of

108
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: that run, and you elevate from within. But then also

109
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: you go and you get Matt Patricia because Jim Knowles

110
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: moves on, and if anything, they improved defensively, which is

111
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: just really hard to do. So that is supreme organizational

112
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: structure there. Ohio State is here as long as Ryan

113
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: days there, and then even above and beyond Ryan Day,

114
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: not to overlook him one of the best doing it

115
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: right now, but even to move beyond him, Ohio State

116
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: as a program has been resilient over the past several

117
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: head coaches they've had, so it's just been a winning program.

118
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: I would move on to number two, and I would

119
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: say Georgia. George is the number two program in the

120
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: country right now, per the PATE State Program Rankings thirty

121
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: six and six. Over the past three years, you got

122
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: back to back SEC championships woven in here. They're a

123
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: back to back playoff team and it was a four

124
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: teamer in twenty twenty three year they would have been

125
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: in there by today's standards. Three years in a row.

126
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: They are the top recruiter in the SEC and the

127
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 1: nation blended over a three year rolling period, and it's

128
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: another excellent outfit when it comes to staffing. If we

129
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: did a head coaching draft and I had first pick,

130
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 1: I'd probably go Kirby Smart And if you made me

131
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: go second and I had to take Ryan Day, I

132
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't be upset with that at all. But bottom line

133
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: is you've got really really established coordinators there, really great culture,

134
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: really great way of doing things. So I got Georgia

135
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: at number two. This is where it gets a little controversial,

136
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: but at number three, I'm put in Indiana. I understand

137
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: that this is a very very extreme example, but Indiana

138
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: is at number three for me in the program rankings.

139
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: They came from out of nowhere. They weren't top ten

140
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: last year because we kind of tried not to fall

141
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: victim to extreme recency bias. This time last year, Indiana

142
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: had come from out of nowhere and Kurt Signetti had

143
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: had risen them from the dead, and they went to

144
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: the playoff. But then they got beat pretty soundly in

145
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs, and we were trying to ask ourselves, Okay,

146
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: that means their team was great, But a program is

147
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: a three year rolling blend, right, so we tried to

148
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: not be prisoners of the moment. But now, what did

149
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: they do is the follow up act? They went and

150
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: won the Big Ten, They went to the play again,

151
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: they won the national championship. They steamrolled folks largely in

152
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: the process, and so now they're twenty seven to two

153
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: over the last two years. They just won the conference

154
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: in national title. The head coach, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator

155
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: combination here may be as good as anyone in the

156
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: country has. The talent acquisition profile now is surging. And

157
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: so yeah, while I still technically have to define this

158
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: as a three year rolling blend, we've got to have

159
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: extreme two year recency bias here. And then the part

160
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: where I do allow myself to look forward a little bit,

161
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 1: they're programs in as good a position as anyone, and

162
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: the reason it's not some one hit wonder, the reason

163
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: it's not some unicorn Johnny come lately and now they'll

164
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: fade back off into the ABYSS type efforts is because

165
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: they've got elite resources there too, which we've just now

166
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: come to realize about Indiana kind of as a college

167
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: football public. I got Indiana at number three. I don't

168
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: really I know it's an extreme example, but everything about

169
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: what they have done is extreme or an outlier, so

170
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: to speak. So yeah, we have to have rules around here,

171
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: but we have to make room for an outlier that

172
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: kind of comes in and just challenges everything about your

173
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: college football worldview. Number four a team that they beat

174
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: twice last year. Oregon. I'd put Oregon as the number

175
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: four program in the country right now, thirty eight and four.

176
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: Over that last three year period, they got back to

177
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: back playoff appearances. They won the Big Ten two years ago.

178
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: They are the top recruiting program in the Big Ten.

179
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: Over that rolling three year snapshot. They have had coaching

180
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: churn there too. When it comes to really valuing organizational structure,

181
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: think about what they've gone through. Think about the fact

182
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: that Kenny Dillingham was there and he was so good

183
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 1: that he got his own shot to be a head

184
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: coach in Arizona State, and they had to go make

185
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: a hire and they brought in will Stein. Most people

186
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: hadn't heard of will Stein when Dan Lanning went and

187
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 1: got him, and then will Stein and his offense didn't

188
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: fall off one bit, so much so that now will

189
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: Stein himself has gotten a head coaching job, and now

190
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: they're promoting from within again, and you start to just

191
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: blindly trust that they really know what they're doing. They're

192
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: Dan Lanning's one of the best head coaches in the country.

193
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: They've got excellent resources, loved the culture there. Oregon has

194
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: one or two major hurdles to clear. You know, they've

195
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: got a lot that they have cleared, although nothing's guaranteed.

196
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: You start over from scratch every year, but they've got

197
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: that one big hurdle once they get to the playoffs.

198
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: Don't let an Ohio State be in your way. Don't

199
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: fall victim to what Indiana did to you last year.

200
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: But see outside of that, there's not much between them

201
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: and the top. And that's why I've gotten them behind Indiana.

202
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: I've gotten behind Ohio State. Speaking of the depth in

203
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: the Big Ten. Man, being fourth in the country means

204
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: being third in the Big ten right now in the

205
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: program rankings. I mean, for a show that reeks of

206
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: sec bias, I don't see it in the program rankings

207
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: at least, So I've got to work in at number four,

208
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 1: number five. We debated internally where to put this team.

209
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 1: This program actually not all that long. Texas is number

210
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: five for US got Texas as the number five program

211
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: in the country. They're thirty five and eight over the

212
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: last three years college Football Playoff in twenty three and

213
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: twenty four. They missed out last year, but they're a

214
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: top five recruiter in the country over that three year spam.

215
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: They're very elite in the portal, just crushing it in

216
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: the portal. They've of course got elite resources. And the

217
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: thing about Texas being at number five is you could

218
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: make the argument that you think their best is still

219
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: ahead of them, Like if you're doing the predictive thing,

220
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 1: if you're kind of cutting one eye over to the

221
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 1: side of twenty twenty six and beyond, there's still room

222
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: to climb for them. They really haven't realized their maximum

223
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: potential yet. So to be saying that about someone and

224
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,239
Speaker 1: they're sitting there. Number five hasn't been pretty good position.

225
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: I put Notre Dame at number six. I always get

226
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: pushed back on Notre Dame. You can't please anyone with

227
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. Notre Dame number six program in the country

228
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: currently thirty four and seven the last three years. There's

229
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: a national championship berth mixed in there. Two years ago.

230
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: The recruiting keeps leveling up, like they were always a

231
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: very good recruiter, but they've kind of leveled up to

232
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: being a great recruiter. They had the number two class

233
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: in the country this last cycle. Per On three elite

234
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: culture could not think any more highly of the culture

235
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: at Notre Dame. You gotta love them this year. So again,

236
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: if you want to do the peak ahead thing when

237
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: you're defining a program's status, I'm not pushing back on

238
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: you if you say Notre Dame maybe should be a

239
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: tick higher. I think we got him right at number six, though,

240
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: first wheel breach of the show, yes, number seven. We

241
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: got Alabama at number seven. There was a little internal

242
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: debate here as well. Alabama the number seven program in

243
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: the country right now at thirty two to ten. Over

244
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: the past three years, You've got two playoff appearances there

245
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: at twenty three and twenty five. You got a conference

246
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: title in twenty twenty three. They've been the number two

247
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 1: recruiter in the nation over that three year span, and

248
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: there's been a handoff during that period from a legendary

249
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: head coach to a new head coach, and things didn't

250
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: fall off a cliff. You could say they regressed a

251
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: little bit, but I also argue there were some very

252
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: very unique challenges that weren't apparent on the surface, at

253
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: least to the handoff that came from Nick Saban stepping

254
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: away and handing it to anyone. It happened to be

255
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: Kaylin de Borr. So we're rolling three year snapshot here.

256
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: Alabama was never going to fall off overnight, even if

257
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: they did fall off, and I'm not suggesting that they are,

258
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 1: but it's important to remember now got him at number seven.

259
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: So if anyone pushes back, number seven's not number one,

260
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: number seven's not two or three. There are programs we

261
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: got ahead of Alabama right now. The reason I always

262
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: have to caveat with Bama and Notre Dame, it's because

263
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: Bama and Notre Dame are the two programs slash teams

264
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: that we always get the most wide variety of comments

265
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 1: for in any kind of video we do or any

266
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: kind of point we make about them. And you can

267
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: come up with your reasons as to why that is.

268
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: But I'll take Alabama at number seven right now. Where

269
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: would you put Miami was what we were asking ourselves earlier. Today,

270
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: I've got Miami as the number eight program in the

271
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: country currently. It's very tough to nail them down because

272
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: there's a seven win season factored in in the past

273
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: three years. We're valuing the past three years rolling blend

274
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 1: of the past three years when it comes to this.

275
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: But the thing about that seven win season is it

276
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: was in twenty twenty three, and then the following year

277
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: they went ten and three, and then the following year

278
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: aka this past year, they went thirteen and three. They

279
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: played for a national championship. They were at midfield, down

280
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: six with a minute to go in a chance to

281
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: win the thing against the best team in the country,

282
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: the eventual national champ in Indiana. They're the number one

283
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: recruiter in their conference by a wide margin. They're the

284
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: top portal player in their conference, in one of the

285
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: top portal players in the country, and they've made big

286
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: staff upgrades. You talk about organizational structure. Okay, they had

287
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: Lance Gidry down there as their defensive coordinator, not close,

288
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: and then Mario goes to Minnesota and gets Corey Heathman

289
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: and immediately, just overnight using some of the same players

290
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: they had the year before, they're one of the top

291
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: defenses in the country. So I think they're leveling up.

292
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: They're in the process of leveling up. I put Miami

293
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: at number eight right now. I'd say the same thing

294
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: about the next program. We got Texas A and M

295
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: at number nine, very similar vibe to Miami. Honestly, Miami

296
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: beating them in the playoff last year was probably the

297
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: tiebreaker we needed to put Miami ahead of them. These

298
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: are very comparable programs though, so A and M same

299
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: vibe as Miami. They've gone from seven wins to eight

300
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: wins to eleven wins in that three year rolling period

301
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: they went to the playoff last year. They've got back

302
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: to back top eight recruiting classes. They are a very

303
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: very elite portal player in their own right. And Mike

304
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: Elko when he was at Duke and then when he

305
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: came to Texas A and M. Two of the things

306
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: that we were counting on when we talked about it

307
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: on this show was they will evaluate very good, they'll

308
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: develop very good. The benefit to go into A and

309
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: M is you get this massive pool of resources just

310
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: tossed in the mix, and so that doesn't hurt. And

311
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: I think much like Texas really that I was talking

312
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: about a second ago, you could argue their best is

313
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: still ahead of them, so it's going to be really

314
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: fun to watch them moving forward. And then at number ten,

315
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: had a lot of programs in the mix. Here. We

316
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: could have put Tennessee here, we could have put Texas

317
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: Tech here. You could make some outside arguments for maybe

318
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: an LSU or in Oklahoma or a Penn State could

319
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: be in that mix. I put Michigan at number ten.

320
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: Still I care about the rolling three year blend. That's

321
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: why we're trying to factor that in when we define

322
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: program instead of just what did you do in the

323
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 1: last five minutes in the last three years. Yes, Michigan

324
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 1: has had a coaching change, but I would argue it's

325
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: a weird factor because they upgraded at head coach as

326
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: part of that coaching change. But there's a national championship

327
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 1: mixed in in the last three years. There's a two

328
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: to one record against your biggest rival in Ohio State

329
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: in the past three years. They're a top fifteen recruiter

330
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: in the past three years. It's a big year coming

331
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: up now. The difference with them versus some of these

332
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: other teams is some of these other teams you look

333
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: in you feel pretty good that they're about to kill

334
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 1: it this upcoming year. I feel great about Notre Dame

335
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: this upcoming year. I feel okay about Michigan. I mean,

336
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: you really got to take advantage of Bryce Underwood while

337
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: you have him, and they're trying everything they can. But

338
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 1: I put Michigan still at number ten. That's how much

339
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: we value, you know, things like winning a championship and

340
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 1: being very competitive, if not better than your rival over

341
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 1: a rolling three year stretch. See here's the difference. The

342
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 1: difference is, if you're just judging teams Michigan two and one,

343
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: how could they be ten with Ohio State at one. Well,

344
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: because of those other factors outweigh the on field head

345
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: to head as much as on field results or what

346
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: it's about. That's how you grade teams. We're grading programs

347
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,479
Speaker 1: here so there's more to it than just that. Like

348
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: I said, we'd put Texas Tech. There, couldn't argue with that. Tennessee.

349
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 1: I put it twelve Texas Tech and Tennessee would be

350
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: my eleven and twelve probably have LSU somewhere close Oklahoma,

351
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: Penn State. So those are the program rankings. Send them out,

352
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: send them in. Can't wait to get the feedback. Always

353
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: constructive feedback, you'll notice, yes, always constructive feedback. It'll sound

354
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: a little something. I'm not hating on people. We have

355
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: fun with this. I'm just saying the most popular form

356
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 1: of feedback we would get on this is let's take

357
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: A and M for example. A and m's way too low. Period.

358
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 1: That's it. You're crazy for having Oregon where you do. Period.

359
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: There is no follow up with here's how the entire

360
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: top ten should look. This is a comparative thing. You

361
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: can't just hate Oregon and say Organ's overrated. What are

362
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 1: they rated? What should they be rated? Who should be

363
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: above them? Do you define the criteria the same as

364
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: I do. If you don't, we're having separate, separate arguments here.

365
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: One argument we should all agree on is quick trip

366
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 1: is great. Quick trip one of the things that makes

367
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: this country great. Now, I had to head out from

368
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: Nashville and drive all the way to Hot Springs, Arkansas.

369
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: I didn't have to, I got to, but anyway, we

370
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 1: did that. This past week we went to the Broils

371
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:46,360
Speaker 1: Award there more on that later and stopped at three

372
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: Quick Trips on the way and two Quick Trips back

373
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: and it was a great time. Cold brew on tap

374
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: every step of the way, reasonably priced gasoline every step

375
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: of the way. You know that they fueled the fall.

376
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: Don't lie to her this entire year. And the t

377
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,959
Speaker 1: shirt commemorating said tour can be found right now at

378
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: petstatemateial dot com. Let me get out of the way

379
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 1: there so you can see the beautiful graphic the guys made. Look,

380
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: there are very few relationships between show and brand as

381
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: the one that we have with Quick Trip. I go

382
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: as first to say it's almost romantic given the nature

383
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: of this weekend. Almost romantic. I don't know legally if

384
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: we can claim that, but we have a lot of

385
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: fun with them. They're the presenting partner of the show.

386
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what more you can say. You really

387
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: need to go to Quick Trip when you get an opportunity,

388
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: let's continue. I hate the piece of paper that I

389
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: hold in my hand right now because it's February and

390
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to be talking about this. But apparently

391
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 1: you guys do, because by the hundreds we got asked

392
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: about it, maybe thousands. I stopped counting. Douglas from Glen Allen, Virginia,

393
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 1: he said, what did you make of Pete Thamil's article

394
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 1: for the twenty four team college football playoff that the

395
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,479
Speaker 1: big tennis pushing. I'm sure it got you excited, it

396
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: got me something. It did get me something. Now, I

397
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: did make a solemn vow to you over the past month,

398
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: and I said, when we went back and we looked

399
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: at all of our content from last year, we noticed

400
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: that there was a strong negative tilt in these months

401
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,439
Speaker 1: that casuals would call the offseason. Because the theory is

402
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 1: only diehards are really living, eating, sleeping, and breathing college

403
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: football twelve months a year. We consider ourselves among that crew.

404
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,479
Speaker 1: Since you don't have games happening in February, March, April, May, June,

405
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,479
Speaker 1: you're kind of left to just talk about what's wrong.

406
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: And we fell victim to that. I thought we fell

407
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: victim to that a little bit last year. And so

408
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: I told you guys, it's not that we're going to

409
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: ignore what's happening in college football, but we're going to

410
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: try and stay away from doom and glooming folks. No

411
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: need for it. It's the greatest sport on the face

412
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: of the earth, even with all of its blemishes. But

413
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: I cannot ignore this. Oh, I just want to float

414
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: a stat to you and if you've missed what was

415
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: being asked there. Pete tham all Over on ESPN got

416
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: a hold of an internal document that's being circulated around

417
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 1: the Big Ten where Tony Pettiti and his crew up there,

418
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: that's the commissioner of the Big Ten. They are really

419
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: really all in on this twenty four team college football playoff,

420
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: which of course would be a disaster. That's my personal

421
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: thought on it. I hate it. And just to give

422
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: you an idea of what we're talking about here in

423
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: this format, Oklahoma State would be a seven time college

424
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,959
Speaker 1: football Playoff participant over the past twelve years. Whatever you

425
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: think about Oklahoma State, do they strike you as a

426
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: team that should have been to the playoffs over half

427
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 1: a dozen times in the past twelve years? My answer

428
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 1: is no. Maybe your answer is yeah. I would imagine

429
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: most people in Stillwater, Oklahoma don't think they should have

430
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 1: been to the playoffs seven times in the last twelve years.

431
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: But I digress. You can go read Themial's article. I mean,

432
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: it's not like an opinion, it's not a column. He

433
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 1: got a hold of a document and shared the information.

434
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: So for that, we're appreciative. I hate every bit of it,

435
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: but we're appreciative of it. So one thing that you'll

436
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: notice as you go and read that article is you'll

437
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: notice the internal document name. Every internal document that gets socialized,

438
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 1: as they say, it has to have a name. It

439
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: can just be unnamed doc. It has to have a name.

440
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: And according to that article, the unnamed document is called

441
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 1: quote a twenty four team CFP format compromise. You hear

442
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: that word compromise. Now you may be thinking to yourself,

443
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: twenty four teams is not a compromise. That's insane. That's all

444
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: the way to the left or all the way to

445
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: the right on the spectrum of believability or logic or

446
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 1: anything that competitively should exist in college football. Who could

447
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 1: have seen this coming, Who could have seen the Big

448
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: Ten touting a twenty four team playoff and calling it

449
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: a compromise. Well, as I sometimes need to remind you

450
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: you're not wasting your time watching this show, So I

451
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: want to briefly take you back to last August. Last August,

452
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: I think also Pete family at that point reported that

453
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 1: the Big Ten was exploring playoff expansion. But you know what,

454
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: it didn't stop at twenty four. There was a twenty

455
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: eight team proposal thrown in there. Now at the time,

456
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: your uncle Josh here took to the microphone and I

457
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 1: said the following. So the Big Ten had an idea

458
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: they wanted a sixteen team playoff. How do you get

459
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: a bad idea across the finish line to people who

460
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: hate the bad idea? And the answer is give them

461
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: an infinitely worse idea. So let's say your uncle Frederick says, oh,

462
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: family vacation time this year. You know where we're going?

463
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 1: Spin the globe, say Lewis, Missouri for the entire week.

464
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to vacation in Saint Louis, Missouri. What is

465
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 1: Uncle Frederick to do? Buy tickets for the entire family

466
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: to go to Key West. He can't afford it. So

467
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: what Uncle Frederick does to make the bad idea seem

468
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: less bad, as he says, fine, we're going to Kosovo.

469
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: See how you like that, And then the kids start crying,

470
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: and then Uncle Frederick sits, there's stone walls for a

471
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: little while, and they cry and they cry and they crying,

472
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: and goes, Okay, Saint Louis it is, and the kids

473
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: are dumb enough to say, all right, I guess that's

474
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: not so bad. It is bad. Nobody wants to vacation

475
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: in Saint Louis. But when Kosovo's put on the table

476
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 1: as if it's actually a legitimate option that Uncle Frederick

477
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: is actually considering, go no, no, give us Saint Louis.

478
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: The two most popular bits of feedback I got on

479
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 1: that is what's your problem with Saint Louis. I've got

480
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: no problem with Saint Louis. It's just not a vacation destination.

481
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: And secondly, I had a big ten athletic director. I

482
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: went at it with him. I don't want to name

483
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 1: who it was, but I went at it with him

484
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,199
Speaker 1: in good spirits. Okay, we shook hands and smiled at

485
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: the end of the day. But he was adamant, that's

486
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: not what we're doing. That's not what we're doing at all. No, No,

487
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: we're steadfast behind this thing. We're serious about it. Well,

488
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: you can't be serious about it because it's not even

489
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,719
Speaker 1: a serious proposal. I don't doubt that you're serious about it.

490
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 1: I don't doubt that you feel it. But it's not

491
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 1: a serious proposal. It's a pile of crap that got

492
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: dropped in everyone's lap. And I just want look. If

493
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: you're a sound bite person, I hope the sound bite

494
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: will do. If you're more of a snapshot person, Bradley,

495
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: show me what this playoff would have looked like. Many

496
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: of you that grew up in the nineties early two

497
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: thousands may have seen the movie Basketball from the creators

498
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: of South Park, and it just it blended the principles

499
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 1: of baseball and basketball, and it started as a sport

500
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: they played in their way, and they turn it into

501
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 1: a major League of basketball. Funny part about Basketball was

502
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: that they had this absurd, massive playoff bracket that you

503
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 1: had to zoom out to be able to see. And

504
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: they had like the East South Northwestern Division two man

505
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: sack race on consecutive Sundays if there's a tie at

506
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: the end of it, and I'm just telling you everyone

507
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 1: laughed at it the time. The Big Ten gets us

508
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: closer and closer every day to a true basketball situation.

509
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,199
Speaker 1: We are drifting further from God's grace and closer to

510
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: basketball every single time the Big Ten floats a new

511
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: college football playoff proposal. You won't be too shocked, I

512
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 1: would imagine to discover that coaches and ads largely support

513
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: this in the Big Ten. I bet they do. You

514
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: know where else most of them would largely support it,

515
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: the SEC and everywhere. You know why coaches an ad

516
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: support it because it's not their job to look out

517
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: for the best interest of college football slash college athletics.

518
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: It's their job to keep their job if they're coaches,

519
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,439
Speaker 1: and it's an athletic director's job to be able to

520
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: tout success. And what better way to tout success than man,

521
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: we've made the playoffs seven times in the past twelve years,

522
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: Because if you're the AD at Oklahoma State, you'd be

523
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 1: able to accurately say that if this had always been

524
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: the format. Mike Gundhy would have been able to accurately

525
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,959
Speaker 1: say that if this had always been the format. Now,

526
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 1: the reality is the effort that was put forth that

527
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: ended up getting people fired at Oklahoma State still would

528
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 1: have been the same effort that had been put forth.

529
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: It's just when we changed the dynamics and we changed

530
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: the way we define success or we just made the

531
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: playoff big enough where everyone could be included. All of

532
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: a sudden, your Wikipedia page looks a little bit different.

533
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: I mean, he's made the playoffs six times in the

534
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: last eight years. What a stud No. No, Actually, he

535
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: may have a program that's perennially recruited in the top ten,

536
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: but he's perennially finished outside the top fifteen. The guy's underachieving,

537
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: and by every historical metric, we would call that underachievement.

538
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: Until someone walks in with a twenty fourteen playoff. All

539
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're the nineteen seed. Congrats man, you've

540
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: made the playoff. Only an idiot falls for that, But

541
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: then again, most people who float these kind of proposals

542
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 1: out there think you are an idiot. What you will notice, though,

543
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: is once upon a time when they would float playoff expansion,

544
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: they used to talk about fan excitement. They used to

545
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 1: talk about doing it for fans, you remember that, And

546
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 1: they never really talked about what the players wanted, But

547
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: they talked about the fans. You know, when they expanded

548
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: from four to twelve, they talked about the fans, because

549
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: even though I didn't want expansion, then it is true

550
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: most fans supported expansion from four to Well, they would

551
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: probably have preferred eight, but even four to twelve, the

552
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: general public preferred twelve over four. Let me tell you

553
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: something about the general public. I know the general public

554
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: very well. I converse with them daily. The general public

555
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: watches the show. The general public hates this to a

556
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: super majority extent. And that's why you never hear fans

557
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: talked about as the motivation for expanding the playoff anymore.

558
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: What's the motivation? Well, the motivation is, of course money.

559
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: Money being a motivator is not inherently a bad thing.

560
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: It is a bad thing when you've got a group

561
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: of people that lack any kind of creativity and any

562
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: kind of ingenuity, and they can't come up with a

563
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: good idea if their lives dependent on it. So they

564
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: just look at the atm over there that's disguised as

565
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 1: a playoff, and their only answer to get themselves out

566
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: of financial issues that they created for themselves is to

567
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 1: just print more money. Or in college football terms, make

568
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: the playoff bigger. That's it. That's the only idea to

569
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: save college football. Every time you get in a little

570
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: bit of a trouble financially, just make the playoff bigger,

571
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: Make the playoff bigger. Well, Josh, what would you do? Well?

572
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: How would you fix it? Well? I'm not the commissioner, yep,

573
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: but let me just float this to you. Let's say

574
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: I am the college football commissioner. One of the first

575
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: things I would try and do is burn every bit

576
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: of equity I have, and burn every resource necessary to

577
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: wrap every major media rights deal that exists in this

578
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: sport as soon as possible. And I know what the

579
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: ink says on some of those contracts, but I also

580
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: know what desperation does to contracts, and I try and

581
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: wrap those things as soon as possible so that every

582
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: major conference is sitting here wide open. Could be twenty

583
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: twenty eight, could be twenty twenty nine. I probably if

584
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: I ever needed to use private equity money in this sport,

585
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: I'd use it to bridge the gap between now and them,

586
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: and I'd renegotiate a college football media rights deal just

587
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: like the NFL's done. Instead of each of these conferences

588
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: being siloed off in their own media rights deals, come together.

589
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: I don't care if you hate each other. If you

590
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: want to rid yourselves your financial issues, then come together

591
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: and sign a deal that brings you three or four

592
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: x the value that your current individual media rights deals do. Also,

593
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: as just a fun little byproduct of that, it may

594
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: greatly ease the concerns that you keep having when you

595
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 1: try and get agreement and cooperation from Congress about hoarding

596
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: and about about inability to distribute money properly. If all

597
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: of a sudden you got three four x revenue and

598
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 1: it's bleeding down, and not just SEC or Big ten

599
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: players are benefiting from it, but a player there at

600
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: sam Houston State or a player there at Missouri State,

601
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: they're benefiting from it too. Just a sidebar, it's not

602
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: really what we're talking about here. So how about exploring

603
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: more things like that and trashing more things like this?

604
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: Those would be my humble thoughts. They're watching us in Rossville, Georgia, Troy,

605
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: New York, San Diego, California. Thank you so much for

606
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: being tuned in. I didn't even bother going over all

607
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 1: the normal reasons I'm against playoff expansion, those are some

608
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: new ones. Let's see. Paul is in Pittsburgh. He said,

609
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: I saw Paul Finebom say Bama and Ohio State are

610
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 1: likely to cancel their regular season series? Is this a

611
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: trend we will see moving forward? So I did not

612
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: actually see this, I heard did it happen? So I

613
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: don't know where Paul was when he said this, but

614
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: he said something along the lines of, if what he's

615
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: heard out of Alabama is true, they may be looking

616
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: to cancel their upcoming home and home with Ohio State,

617
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: which I believe is in twenty twenty seven, twenty twenty eight,

618
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: so it would be a year after this upcoming year.

619
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: And Paul's asking, is that something that's going to be

620
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: the norm? And I'd say probably. It's maybe a case

621
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: by case thing, but I'd say probably, Paul. If you've

622
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: got SEC schools that scheduled home and homes out of

623
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: conference when they used to play eight conference games and

624
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: now they're going to play nine conference games, yeah, I

625
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: would imagine you would see some of that at least. Also,

626
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: I went and looked at least one of those years,

627
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: Jesse and Bama play in Oklahoma State too, so they

628
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: still have they got nine league games and still have

629
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: a major out of conference game. If they played Ohios date,

630
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: it would have been an eleven of them. No one's

631
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 1: doing that. It's totally impractical. So it'd be fun to watch,

632
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: but it would be totally impractical. You remember for a

633
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: long time, if you've watched the show, or if you've

634
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: listened to the show for a long time. I appreciate that.

635
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: And if you've watched or listened for a long time, remember,

636
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: Probably the single biggest beef I've had with the whole

637
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 1: concept of the Playoff Committee is that I have never

638
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: believed they properly account for strength of schedule and strength

639
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: of record. I don't think they properly define it, and

640
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: I always pushed for an overhaul of the way they

641
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: define strength of record strength of schedule and incorporate much

642
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: more of a Vegas profile about that. And what I

643
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: meant by that is I wish we had an environment

644
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 1: where we really understood like a Texas last year, for example,

645
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 1: they play Ohio State Week one, Well, they lose the game,

646
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 1: and there's a mentality that looks at them and says,

647
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 1: oh they're ohe to one man. Well, win's a win.

648
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: A loss is a loss. It's so stupid to think

649
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 1: that way in college football, in college football specifically, but

650
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: kind of college athletics too, but especially college football. It's

651
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,439
Speaker 1: not pro football. You are not what your record says.

652
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 1: You are merely in college football. But that's kind of

653
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 1: the way people think. And even when the committee said, O,

654
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: we're going to overhaul our protocols and the way we

655
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: go about defining that, they really didn't all that much.

656
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: So let me ask you a question. I try and

657
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: stay away from this debate because truthfully, very few people

658
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: are capable of having this debate. Logically, it just devolves

659
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,479
Speaker 1: into a crap throwing fest between SEC fan and Big

660
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,839
Speaker 1: ten fan, and everyone's carrying a torch and pitch fork

661
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: for one or the other. It just gets stupid. But

662
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 1: let me try here, not even necessarily taking a side

663
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: on this. Like, personally, I love that the SEC went

664
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 1: to nine league games, but I get someone who has

665
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: a problem, and I certainly get someone who's opting out

666
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: of future out of conference games because they went to nine.

667
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: I don't have to love it to understand it. In

668
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 1: other words, but let me ask you a question about

669
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 1: Texas last year. This will kind of determine how you

670
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: land on this whole debate. Do you think Texas cost

671
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: themselves a playoff spot by scheduling Ohio State last year

672
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: and losing the game? I understand that's an important follow

673
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: up and losing the game. So do you believe Ohio

674
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 1: State or do you believe Texas cost themselves a playoff

675
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: spot by scheduling Ohio State and losing that game last year?

676
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: I think the answer is yes. Sark thinks the answer

677
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: is yes. Obviously, there are many people who think the

678
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,479
Speaker 1: answer is no. There are many people who would push

679
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: back on that, say no, because they still had plenty

680
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: of opportunity to make the playoffs. After that game was over,

681
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 1: they were only zero to one. They still had a

682
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 1: whole season left ahead of them. They shouldn't have gone

683
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: and lost to Florida. They shouldn't have gone and lost

684
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: to Georgia. Well, it's true that had they not lost

685
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: to Florida or Georgia, they would have made the playoff

686
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,919
Speaker 1: even with the Ohio State loss. However, if you keep

687
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: both of the conference losses and remove Ohio State and

688
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: put UTEP or well, UTEP was on the schedule, so

689
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 1: put someone else. I don't know to put. I always

690
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: say Sam Houston State, and they get pissed at me.

691
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,920
Speaker 1: So I don't want to do that anymore. So put

692
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 1: Arkansas State on there. Put Arkansas State in Week one

693
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: instead of Ohio State. Keep everything as is the remainder

694
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: of the way. Give me their two losses. Where's Texas

695
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the year. They're in the playoff.

696
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: They're in the playoff, so you could really make the

697
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: argument that, yeah, they cost themselves by scheduling up. Now,

698
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: someone like me looks at that and says, if I

699
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: were on the committee, I can't one hundred percent say

700
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: if Texas would have made the playoff, but I can

701
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 1: say Texas's profile would have been a lot more impressive

702
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,320
Speaker 1: than the one the committee probably had spat out in

703
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: their piece of paper in their packet, by the way

704
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: they currently go about doing things. Cause my way of

705
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: doing things would be, I look at the fact that

706
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: they went and played Ohio State in Week one, What

707
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: were they one or two or something like that. Jesse

708
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: and I would have agreed with that. You voluntarily go

709
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: on the road to play the number one team in

710
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: the country to start the year, and you lose by

711
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,399
Speaker 1: a possession to them. I'm not punishing you one bit.

712
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm rewarding Ohio State for beating you. But the worst

713
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna do is just draw a blank from me,

714
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 1: because I know what you could have done. I know

715
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 1: you easily could have scheduled Northern Arizona, and you can

716
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: especially do that as an SEC program because you know

717
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: the rest of your strength of schedule is going to

718
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,399
Speaker 1: be more than enough. Then as long as you take

719
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: care of business, you'll be in. So Texas didn't have

720
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 1: to play that game. Now, if you listen to that

721
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: and say, oh, that's pathetic, they should do it anyway.

722
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 1: I don't know that I agree with that, even though

723
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: the Texas Athletic director does. I give full credit to

724
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: Chris del Conte. He came out recently and just flat

725
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: out said, I don't even care if my head coach

726
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: doesn't like it. We're going to continue to schedule this

727
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: way because we think the fans deserve it. That's what

728
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,720
Speaker 1: you come to Texas to do. And look, I wish

729
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: that attitude existed everywhere. That's my personal attitude, that's my

730
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,919
Speaker 1: personal desire. I like that the SEC went to nine

731
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: league games. I'd love to still see Alabama and Ohio State.

732
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: I personally selfishly wanted. The question is, is that how

733
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: I'd operate if I were an athletic director. I don't

734
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 1: know that I would. It's largely contingent on the Playoff

735
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 1: Committee following through on what I always thought the SEC

736
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,439
Speaker 1: should have demanded from them. The SEC's got a lot

737
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: of sway here, they got a lot of pull, and

738
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 1: I always thought the SEC probably moved a little too

739
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: quickly to that nine game league schedule without full guarantee

740
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: from the committee that they were going to properly factor

741
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: in strength of schedule and strength of record. And I

742
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 1: still don't think they do it. And there are a

743
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 1: lot of people in the SEC upset, There are a

744
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: lot of coaches in the SEC upset that they just

745
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,760
Speaker 1: went They almost it's almost like they got baited into

746
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,320
Speaker 1: going to nine league games. Now, there are many reasons

747
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 1: why they did it, but it doesn't matter what the

748
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: real reasons were. The perception is, y'all got made fun of,

749
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: and you took the bait, and you took the league

750
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: to nine conference games per year without any solid, tangible

751
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 1: guarantees from the committee that quote unquote understand it and

752
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: then take it into account strength of record, strength of

753
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 1: schedule will be properly weighted. And then you got another

754
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 1: growing class of people out there who just claims the

755
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: SEC schedule is really not anything it's cracked up to be,

756
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 1: and so what's the difference eight or nine? It's an

757
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: overrated conference to begin with. I kind of dismiss that,

758
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: like I still think the the average SEC league schedule

759
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 1: is the toughest league schedule you're gonna play in the

760
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 1: country on average. Now here's the thing about that. Nobody

761
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: plays an SEC schedule. Nobody plays a Big ten schedule.

762
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: A team plays their schedule. So Florida's schedule this year

763
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: and Missouri's schedule this year aren't the same. So it's

764
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 1: kind of lazy to say, oh, they're playing SEC schedules. No,

765
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,800
Speaker 1: here's what we know. Each of the gonna play nine

766
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: SEC teams, and likewise, in the Big ten Maryland and

767
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 1: Ohio State they're gonna they're gonna play nine Big ten teams.

768
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,279
Speaker 1: But you've got disparities still in strength to schedule there.

769
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 1: But I'll just tell you this, The answer is not

770
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,399
Speaker 1: playoff expansion. The answer is not oh don't worry, Yeah,

771
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna play a tougher schedule, Your teams are gonna

772
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 1: average more losses. But we'll just expand the playoff and

773
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: we'll take care of it. No, urgency is still a

774
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 1: good thing. It's a very good thing. It's the bedrock

775
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: of what makes college football's regular season the best regular

776
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 1: season on the planet. But logic is okay too. It

777
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: is okay to come in and say, well, wait a second, now,

778
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: Texas had the stones to schedule Ohio State, and they've

779
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:44,359
Speaker 1: got them again this year, by the way, when they

780
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 1: don't have to, and you're telling me because they lost

781
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 1: that game on the road by one possession, that was

782
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: just treated as a loss. Like, how many people did

783
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: you hear at the end of the season last year

784
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 1: say you can't let Texas in with three losses. Really,

785
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 1: it all still boils down to that win lost column.

786
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 1: It still all boils mostly, I'm gonna say mostly, It

787
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 1: still mostly boils down to your what your record says

788
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: you are. It is a tough mentality to divorce yourself from.

789
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: So if that's the way it's gonna be. I can't

790
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: hate on these athletic directors that opt out of these

791
00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: out of conference games because I don't know that I

792
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't do the same thing, even as I sit here

793
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 1: selfishly behind his microphone and say, I hope none of

794
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 1: them do. Got bad news for you. There are no

795
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: college football games this month. Now the good news is,

796

812
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: to each his and her own. Yes, Hey, I got

813
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,480
Speaker 1: an idea for the rest of the show, maybe some

814
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 1: actual football talk. Yeah, our research indicates it does work.

815
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 1: Got a lot of quarterback battles we're looking at. Someone

816
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: asked us, you know, we're kind of trying to head

817
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: towards springing. Hey, which quarterback battles do you have your

818
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 1: eye on. I gotta think Alabama's is the most high

819
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: profile quarterback battle that's gonna happen here. And now, remember

820
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: when they played Indiana in the Rose Bowl. They got

821
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: smoked so bad and then Ty Simpson gets hurt and

822
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 1: he's out of the rest of the game. Who came in?

823
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,840
Speaker 1: Austin Mack came in. Now, I got to tell you

824
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 1: what I was thinking. What I was thinking was, I

825
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: think Keelan Russell is the future of that program. Austin

826
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 1: Mack is gonna play a half in the playoffs here,

827
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 1: and it's basically his audition tape, and he didn't play bad,

828
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: and I was just sure that he was gonna go

829
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: in the portal. And it turns out Austin Mack kind

830
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: of loves to be at Alabama, so he stayed at Alabama,

831
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: and they're gonna have a really high profile quarterback battle

832
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: this spring. It is still my belief that Kielan Russell's

833
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: gonna win that job. But that's just that's belief, and

834
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: that's me being really high on him as a player.

835
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 1: But I mean, Austin Mack is a really really good

836
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: player too, and I think that's gonna be one that's

837
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: looked at and there's gonna be a lot of people

838
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:01,400
Speaker 1: who use like their own slant on things for whoever

839
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: loses the job. Let's say Austin mac finish his runner up.

840
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 1: Let's say he goes into the season as the backup quarterback.

841
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 1: There're gonna be a lot of folks who look at

842
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 1: it and say, oh, what a mistake on his part.

843
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,359
Speaker 1: The only mistake would be him doing what he didn't

844
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 1: want to do. That would be the mistake there. So

845
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,919
Speaker 1: let the man live his life, or maybe he wins

846
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 1: the job, you know, and then Keilan Russell is the

847
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 1: one who has to wait another year. What about Clemson,

848
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 1: Kate Klubnick's moving on, So we'll have our eye on

849
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: this one because they brought in Chad Morris at offensive

850
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: coordinator too, So Garrett Riley's out and Chris Vazina was

851
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,439
Speaker 1: a guy that we talked about several times a few

852
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: years back, and he came in and he was pretty

853
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: high profile recruit. He was number one fifty five overall

854
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,879
Speaker 1: per the ON three rankings in twenty twenty three. All right,

855
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 1: now he's immersed himself in the program. He's six', four

856
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 1: he's two. Ten he's ready to take the. Reins. NOW

857
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 1: i Know Chris dentson And Tate reynolds are, there but

858
00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: it's It's Chris vazina's job to lose to. Me and

859
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 1: he played AGAINST smu last year seventeen and three touchdowns

860
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,279
Speaker 1: in that. Game, AGAIN i don't know how much of

861
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 1: a battle this, becomes but it's a quarterback. SITUATION i

862
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 1: Guess i'd say THAT i have my eye On tennessee's

863
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: kind of the same way because At tennessee we got

864
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 1: to find out what's gonna happen With Joey. Aguilar because

865
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,359
Speaker 1: in today's college, football you don't just get to pick

866
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: up your preview magazine and find out who's in the.

867
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: Mix now you have to follow court, cases you. Know

868
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 1: so Whatever Joey agilar, though that, situation like if he

869
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 1: gets granted another season of, eligibility he's the odds on

870
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: favorite obviously to win that. Job they brought In Ryan

871
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,879
Speaker 1: stobb From colorado as of, NOW i don't expect him

872
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: to be in the mix for the starting. Position But

873
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 1: george McIntyre And Fazing, brandon those are the ones who

874
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: are going to battle it. Out brandon comes in, there

875
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 1: give me true, freshman high profile, guy five star caliber,

876
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: guy And george McIntyre has been there a little while.

877
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: LONGER i think right, now if it's Not Joey, agilar

878
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: my guess If i'm throwing darts at a board In,

879
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 1: february is That george McIntyre EN's up winning that job

880
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 1: If Joey aguilar is not. There but the other thing

881
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,399
Speaker 1: you always got to pay attention to with legitimate five

882
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:12,800
Speaker 1: star caliber quarterback talent is it's one. Thing if the

883
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 1: guy's ready to play In, august that's, great but not

884
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,319
Speaker 1: everything is just set in stone as it's always going

885
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:22,879
Speaker 1: to be by week, one especially if you're a true

886
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 1: freshman in your head, swimming sometimes the light comes on

887
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: in week five or week, Six So Faison brandon week

888
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 1: one versus the same guy in week eight could be

889
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: two totally different. Stories so that's something else to keep

890
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: our eye On nebraska had a very contentious situation there

891
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,839
Speaker 1: for a little. While Dylan ryola transfers, out and then

892
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: it Was Kenny. Minschee Kenny minshei is going to be

893
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,439
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback At, nebraska and the graphics went out

894
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 1: and the announcement went, out and then all of a,

895
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: sudden the breaking news went. Out, no he's. Not he's

896
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 1: actually going To kentucky Will stein Will Stein Breaking hearts

897
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 1: And Lincoln. Nebraska so Then ANTHONY i call Him, calandria

898
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,799
Speaker 1: but it could Be. Colindrea i'm A calandria. Guy he

899
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,360
Speaker 1: comes in and they really really fell in love with

900
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 1: him now partly because they have to love. Him he

901
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 1: has to be the. Guy this has to work out because,

902
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 1: CANDIDLY i KNOW Tj latif stepped up last. YEAR i

903
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,239
Speaker 1: Know Daniel kaylin's still. THERE i think for them to

904
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,319
Speaker 1: maximize any kind of potential as a team this, year

905
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 1: it's probably gonna have to be Old ac. There if

906
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 1: we can go that far as to use initials In,

907
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: FEBRUARY i think it's got to be. Him and if you,

908
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 1: think if you think about the opening they have to

909
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 1: their Season Ohio Bowling Green North dakota At Michigan, State.

910
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 1: Maryland they don't play in all. LIKELIHOOD i guess they

911
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,399
Speaker 1: don't play a ranked opponent Until indiana comes in, there

912
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 1: and that's in the second week Of, october so there's.

913
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 1: TIME i actually didn't know that About nebraska's schedule Till

00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 1: one one of Those they were a beneficiary of the

917
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 1: way the portal works a year. Ago now they're a

918
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:08,240
Speaker 1: victim of the way the portal. Works So dary And mensa,

919
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 1: leaves and it's very significant that he left first, off

920
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 1: because you lost your starting, quarterback but also because their

921
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 1: backup had already transferred, out Thinking i'm not going to

922
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 1: beat Out darry And mensa not knowing That mensa was

923
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:24,840
Speaker 1: going to just disappear and go To. Miami so the

924
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 1: BACKUP wo had already, left so they had to go

925
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 1: To San Jose. State they Got Walter egitt Or Walker Egret.

926
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:34,840
Speaker 1: Egoitt egret's an, animal, right, yeah never owned. One don't

927
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 1: know if they're legal In, nashville at least In david's

928
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: In County williams And county is a different that's a

929
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,759
Speaker 1: different world down, there all kinds of exotic pet ownership down,

930
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 1: there but In Davidson, county no. Egrets, however At Duke

931
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:51,480
Speaker 1: Walker eget he's there by way Of San Jose. State my,

932
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 1: guess this is just a guess at this point is

933
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 1: that's probably the, guy but he still needs a, waiver

934
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: so we don't even know Many dias does not even

935
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 1: know if that's his guy. Yet and if if we're

936
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 1: Down Darien mensa and the backup and Then egot Or,

937
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 1: egret either one of them don't get a, waiver then

938
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,800
Speaker 1: what are we? Doing, well we're looking at a transfer

939
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 1: From North alabama and we're looking at a red shirt. Freshman,

940
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 1: translation not great vibes ahead For. Duke AND i also

941
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: want to put something else on your. Radar not THAT

942
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 1: i love, this BUT i cannot ignore that people have

943
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:32,480
Speaker 1: been telling me. THIS i know, THAT i know that

944
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 1: your FRIENDLY ncaa source has informed you that there is

945
00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:38,400
Speaker 1: only one transfer portal window in this. Sport NOW i

946
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 1: wish it were. TRUE i wish it were, true but

947
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,320
Speaker 1: it is. Not and so it is my humble duty

948
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 1: to inform. You and this may come as a. Shock

949
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,839
Speaker 1: but it is my humble duty to inform you that

950
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: there are many people out, there namely players and, coaches

951
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 1: who do not think that the NCAA's transfer portal window

952
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: rule is worth the paper that's written. On and so

953
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,840
Speaker 1: there are many staffs that are moving forward with plans

954
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 1: to make moves after the spring period is, done with

955
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,320
Speaker 1: the thinking that as long as we can get a

956
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 1: kid enrolled in fall, SEMESTER ncaa is not going to

957
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 1: be able to stop. Us and you just got to

958
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 1: go judge. Shop that's all you have to. Do get

959
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:25,719
Speaker 1: your temporary restraining. Order just the OLD ncaa playbook these.

960
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 1: Days just run that and we'll be. GOOD i don't like,

961
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: it But i'm just telling you what i'm hearing behind the.

962
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 1: Scenes do with that what you. Will let's move. On

963
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: we had another question about. Scheduling david from Fort. Worth

964
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: good weekend at the. STOCKYARDS i saw there on Social

965
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 1: david at Fort worth, SAID i saw the hardest. Schedules

966
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:48,120
Speaker 1: you talked about those last. Week NOW i need the easiest.

967
00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: Ones you don't have to, Yell, DAVID i, mean just

968
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,279
Speaker 1: calmly ask And i'll give it to. You WHAT i

969
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: want to do here IS i want to point out

970
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: one team per. CONFERENCE i think that's a more agreeable

971
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,239
Speaker 1: way to do. This let's start with a team not

972
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: in a. Conference notre dame schedule is insanely soft this.

973
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: Year And i'm normally the one pushing back on people

974
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,360
Speaker 1: who Say Notre dame doesn't play, anyone because most of

975
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: the time that's a. Lie most of the time people

976
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 1: are just hating On Notre. Dame Notre dame actually normally

977
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: plays legitimate. Schedules this is not one of those. Years,

978
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 1: now part of this IS. Usc that game, disappeared so

979
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 1: there is NO usc on the. Schedule here's what is

980
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: on this. Schedule one team in the top twenty of

981
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: The FanDuel odds to win the playoff one and That's,

982
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: miami and that's In, november and that's at. Home best

983
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 1: we can tell you Got, MIAMI smu And Brigham young

984
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 1: on this. Schedule those are the only teams in like

985
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 1: the top. Forty and then there's this massive cliff and

986
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,840
Speaker 1: it's just a bunch of produced And stanford's And navies

987
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:57,919
Speaker 1: And Boston colleges is In. Syracuses this is it's ridiculously,

988
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: soft to the point WHERE i could see a debate

989
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 1: If Notre dame were to lose two games. Again in,

990
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: fact it wouldn't be a. Debate they probably missed the playoff.

991
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 1: Again the exciting follow up IS i Have Notre dame

992
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,359
Speaker 1: rated number one right now in my preseason, poll AND

993
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 1: i don't think they're going to lose two. Games so

994
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,919
Speaker 1: take that. Haters next, up what about The Big? TEN

995
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: i Think Penn. State Penn state's probably WHO i would

996
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 1: say has the easiest schedule in The Big ten this.

997
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: Year there's No Ohio, state there's No, oregon there's No.

998
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:30,280
Speaker 1: Indiana the out of conference is a complete. Joke Marshall

999
00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:34,719
Speaker 1: temple In. Buffalo there's no back to back road game.

1000
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:38,399
Speaker 1: Here they GET usc at, home and we are trying

1001
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,319
Speaker 1: to figure out what the whiteout's going to. Be no

1002
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 1: word on that. Yet, UNFORTUNATELY i do not have the

1003
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,840
Speaker 1: power to just dictate what the white out game is

1004
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,320
Speaker 1: going to. Be but that is a very workable. Schedule

1005
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 1: and listen To november At washington's not, EASY i will

1006
00:53:55,200 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 1: grant you. That But, Purdue, Washington, MINNESOTA Us, maryland those

1007
00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 1: are the final five games they. Play SO i Like

1008
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 1: Penn state's odds to sneak around the playoff bubble this,

1009
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: year even though it's year one and the ceiling of

1010
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,240
Speaker 1: that team is probably well beneath that of national title.

1011
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 1: Caliber but it's JUST i, mean it may be a

1012
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:22,439
Speaker 1: product schedule in year One. VANDERBILT i guess it's where

1013
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:27,759
Speaker 1: we go in THE. Sec we. Look i've been one

1014
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,399
Speaker 1: to hate on the schedule and maker is a time

1015
00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 1: or two in my. Day THE sec schedule maker this.

1016
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 1: Year AND i don't know if IT'S ai, GENERATED i don't,

1017
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 1: know if it's some dude whose name we don't. KNOW

1018
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 1: i don't know if it's a whole cabal of. People

1019
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:44,719
Speaker 1: they did a pretty good job of flattening out the

1020
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 1: easiest and hardest schedules in THE. Sec like, everyone everyone's

1021
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 1: really really crunched. Together the REASON i Chose vanderbilt is

1022
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,040
Speaker 1: their big out of conference game IS Nc state at,

1023
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:59,759
Speaker 1: home so don't know what to expect from them. Necessarily

1024
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 1: but there's a long stretch everyone pretty much everyone only

1025
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,359
Speaker 1: has one by this, year so you're trying to find

1026
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: out where's the Buye and these teams are inevitably playing

1027
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:11,640
Speaker 1: a chunk of like seven or eight games in a

1028
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,319
Speaker 1: row at some Point Vandy, LIKEWISE i think they play

1029
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:16,799
Speaker 1: either seven or eight games in a row at one.

1030
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 1: Point it's important to note that the last two teams

1031
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:25,560
Speaker 1: on their long stretch Are arkansas And. Kentucky if you're

1032
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,399
Speaker 1: picking teams out of THE, sec those are probably two

1033
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:29,719
Speaker 1: of the three or four that you would pick if

1034
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:32,280
Speaker 1: you could hand pick how to end your long. Stretch

1035
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 1: florida And auburn are on this. Schedule those are total wildcard.

1036
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:37,680
Speaker 1: Teams they could win nine, games they could win five.

1037
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:40,600
Speaker 1: Games if You're, vanderbilt obviously you're hoping for the. Latter

1038
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 1: So i'd Go vandy in THE. SEC i thought about

1039
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,279
Speaker 1: going IN C state in THE acc because they don't

1040
00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 1: Play miami Or louisville Or Florida, state they don't Play Notre.

1041
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 1: Dame Notre dame plays FIVE acc. Teams that's WHY i mentioned.

1042
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:57,160
Speaker 1: Them they're big out of conference GAMES, ucla but IN

1043
00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 1: C state that travels not easy and they end the

1044
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:06,400
Speaker 1: season with well no hold on. Cal col was the,

1045
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: one so take EVERYTHING i just said and that applies To.

1046
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:13,600
Speaker 1: CAL i landed ON Nc state BECAUSE Nc states schedule

1047
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 1: travel wise is not nearly as tough AS. Col so

1048
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 1: there you. Go N C. State also No, MIAMI Nc,

1049
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: state NO, smu also No Notre. Dame we think they

1050
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 1: probably stand to have the quarterback edge in every. GAME

1051
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 1: i could make the ARGUMENT. Cj bailey has the edge

1052
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: quarterback wise in every game they're going to play this.

1053
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 1: Year they play back to back road games to end the.

1054
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 1: Year but these are not long. Trips It's Florida state

1055
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 1: and It's North carolina for. Them side note Because North

1056
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 1: carolina look like by the end of the. Year and

1057
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:47,240
Speaker 1: then in The Big, twelve this is very. Easy Texas

1058
00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 1: tech is far and away the best program slash team

1059
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 1: in The Big twelve right, now and they cannot play,

1060
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:56,560
Speaker 1: themselves so you will not See Texas tech On Texas tech. Schedule,

1061
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 1: now this is cutting edge analysis That i'm giving you right.

1062
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,400
Speaker 1: Now But tech tex got the, softest, easiest whatever you

1063
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,439
Speaker 1: want to call it schedule in The Big twelve because number,

1064
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:06,359
Speaker 1: one they don't play themselves and number, two they don't

1065
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: Play Brigham. YOUNG i don't need to go any further than.

1066
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:11,600
Speaker 1: That there could be some fine forensic analysis of, this

1067
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 1: Like Pete mundo and the guys who covered The Big,

1068
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,799

Speaker 1: Twelve let's move. Along, sorry just looking at text, there

1072
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:34,880

1076
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 1: i don't know what to make Of Shane. Beemer at this.

1077
00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: Point it feels like we're gonna Waste sellers And stewart

1078
00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 1: and then what do we just settle for what we've been.

1079
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:59,360
Speaker 1: Getting this is like the last scene In Missus doubtfire

1080
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 1: when that little girl rights in and talks, about, hey

00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,160
Speaker 1: audio bed underneath and he makes the little girl feel.

1083
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 1: Better everything's gonna be. Okay AND i don't know THAT

1084
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 1: i can do that Because Robin williams is a better

1085
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 1: actor than. Me was a better actor than. Me rest in, Peace,

1086
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 1: Jeffrey here's What i'll tell. You let's not forget that

1087
00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 1: as recently as season before, last you guys were flirting

1088
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: with a college football. Playoff you were right. There you

1089
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,000
Speaker 1: were one of the first two or three teams. Out

1090
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: now there is that small matter of going four and

1091
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 1: eight last. Year, yes that's not. Great, no that doesn't

1092
00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,520
Speaker 1: make anyone feel. Good and it doesn't matter that you

1093
00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 1: almost beat them or you almost beat that. TEAM i get.

1094
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 1: That So Shane beemer about to enter a sixth, season,

1095
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:53,040
Speaker 1: right seven, wins eight, wins five, wins nine, wins four.

1096
00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:58,720
Speaker 1: WINS i know What indiana has done to. Everyone indiana

1097
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:03,480
Speaker 1: has poisoned the reign of everyone because everyone is now

1098
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:05,479
Speaker 1: saying If indiana can do, it we should be able

1099
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 1: to do, it WHICH i would say is kind of

1100
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 1: disrespectful to What indiana. Did BUT i do get the.

1101
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,560
Speaker 1: Point the point is, taken total offense last year fell

1102
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 1: off a. Cliff it went from forty fifth to one oh.

1103
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 1: Nine they were one hundred and thirty first in sacks

1104
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 1: allowed last. Year so here's what they have to. DO

1105
00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 1: i Mentioned indiana for a reason, there partly because they

1106
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 1: just won the national title and made everyone look. Foolish

1107
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 1: but the other part is everyone's got a theory about

1108
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 1: Why indiana won last year and Why indiana's flying at

1109
00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 1: the level they are right. Now and some people, say,

1110
00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:40,400
Speaker 1: oh they got a bunch of old, players and other people, say,

1111
00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,400
Speaker 1: well most people just flat out pointed out the experience

1112
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 1: level last, year and, YEAH i mean that was a

1113
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:49,400
Speaker 1: big beneficiary for. Them here's what they. Did they found.

1114
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: Edges they found program. Edges that's what everyone has to,

1115
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:59,400
Speaker 1: do unless You're texas and you just get to cherry

1116
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,280
Speaker 1: pick the best players in the country every. Year unless

1117
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:06,120
Speaker 1: You're oregon Or georgia or Like Ohio. State these teams

1118
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:09,160
Speaker 1: that just get to cherry pick and fill their roster

1119
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 1: with the best players in the country every, year you

1120
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 1: got to get creative and you've got to find program.

1121
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,040
Speaker 1: Edges And i'm a full. Believer i'm firmly convinced that

1122
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 1: the Way Kurt signetti Runs indiana has found them a

1123
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 1: few edges that they have unique To, indiana and that

1124
01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 1: when you add them all, up the cumulative effect of

1125
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 1: small edges ends up pouring out what you saw them

1126
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,840
Speaker 1: achieve on the field last. Year that's the lesson people

1127
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: should be learning From indiana right. Now it's not let's

1128
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 1: go get a bunch of twenty three year. Olds it's

1129
01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:47,560
Speaker 1: let's define our. Edges, okay So indiana DOES. Abc how

1130
01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:51,160
Speaker 1: do we do def better than? Anyone how do we

1131
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:54,880
Speaker 1: find a way to where someone thinks about something and they, say,

1132
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 1: oh That's South carolina's, thing, Man South carolina's perfected that

1133
01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,760
Speaker 1: this could go for. Anyone but that's kind of what

1134
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 1: you can do, there because you can't possibly think that

1135
01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: you're about to start acquiring talent at a top ten. Level,

1136
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 1: look they went and got You carry's peak best tackle

1137
01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 1: available in the. Portal that's. Wonderful and they do Have

1138
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 1: Dylan stewart, there and they do Have Leonora sellers. There

1139
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 1: they got great players. There they don't have a great,

1140
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 1: roster but they've got great. Players. Now they got a

1141
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:23,440
Speaker 1: good enough roster to improve a four and, EIGHT i

1142
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 1: promise you. That but they shook up the offensive coaching.

1143
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,680
Speaker 1: Staff there's a new, Coordinator Kendall browles is. There by the,

1144
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,800
Speaker 1: way in case you had me keeping, score running backs,

1145
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 1: coach offensive line. Coach they have to find. Edges AND

1146
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 1: i say that generically Because i'm not claiming to be

1147
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:42,440
Speaker 1: coming to you with the specific edges. Tonight that, IS

1148
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 1: i have always argued one of a few Reasons Shane

1149
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 1: biemer gets paid way more than we. Do he's got

1150
01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: to find him and you got to exhaust yourself to find. Him,

1151
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 1: NOW i say that so, easy, man because it's easy to. Say. Yes,

1152
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:57,919
Speaker 1: yes it's hard to do because you got a bunch

1153
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:00,400
Speaker 1: of the best in the world at what they do

1154
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 1: coaching this. Game everybody's looking for an, angle everyone's looking

1155
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:06,480
Speaker 1: for an. Edge What i'm telling you is the formula

1156
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:11,200
Speaker 1: for success if, slash when you finally get, there will

1157
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:15,760
Speaker 1: include having done. That that's What i'm. Saying there's a

Speaker 1: victimized By? Indiana what did those stats? Learn but especially

1298
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:46,320
Speaker 1: With oregon because they had to deal with this twice last?

1299
01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:50,840

1305
01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,240
Speaker 1: of staff cues did we? Take what kind of preparation

1306
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:13,920
Speaker 1: changes do we? Make because we had to experience that

1307
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,839
Speaker 1: it's okay to lose as long as we get better

1308
01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 1: from it and our staff gets better from. It so

1309
01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:22,599
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of room to go up. Here

1310
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,920
Speaker 1: and that's the privilege of being in a position at

1311
01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:29,320
Speaker 1: oregons In but If i'm an organ, fan, hey, LOOK i,

1312
01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:32,920

1313
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:36,559

1314
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: the resume for a few years. Now this is not

1315
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:42,280
Speaker 1: new to. You you're winning double digit games every year,

1316
01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:45,920
Speaker 1: Now you're in the constant conversation for the playoff every year.

1317
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 1: Now so it may not be, right but it's reality

1318
01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:51,559
Speaker 1: that you start to take it for. Granted you can

1319
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:54,080
Speaker 1: afford to do that as a. Fan Dan lanning can't

1320
01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 1: afford to do. That his staff can't afford to do,

1321
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,519
Speaker 1: That his player personnel guys can't afford to do. That

1322
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:00,640
Speaker 1: you can afford to do that because you got a

1323
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,200
Speaker 1: normal nine to five. Job it's not your job to
