1
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: Did you guys see like these New Year's Eve parties

2
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: basically they had in Austin and Norman. I think it

3
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: was ESPN just like set the entire company there for

4
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,440
Speaker 1: the kickoff of what the new SEC is. How about

5
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: the sauce coming from Joke Stickley on the ad there

6
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 1: at Oklahoma, No Love Lost? Apparently, as it turns out,

7
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: they still remember the Lincoln Riley era. Well, we are

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: jam packed. We are hi atap a sunny South Florida.

9
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 1: We're down here for all sorts of things I can't

10
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: talk to you about right now. Some of it's management related,

11
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: some of it's just special project related. None of it

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: will matter on tonight's show, but it will matter in

13
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: the coming days and weeks. But in the meantime, we

14
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: have a jam packed show. And I've got to talk

15
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: about a power shift potentially in the SEC. See, things

16
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: really revolve around Birmingham and it Atta in the SEC

17
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: they have for a long time, really Birmingham more so

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: than Atlanta, but Atlanta especially since it's like the capital

19
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 1: of the South. Could that change? We got new additions here.

20
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: Could that change? Though? If some of these new brands

21
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: and some established brands hold up there into the bargain.

22
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: My answer is yes, kind of sorda and maybe in

23
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: different ways than some people in envision. I looked at

24
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: the schedule today with producer Jesse and company, and we

25
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: circled four of the biggest saturdays in the sport this fall.

26
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: It's great. Every Saturday is great, once upon a time,

27
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 1: once upon a Saturday, every given Saturday. But some of

28
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 1: them are more jam packed than others. We will talk

29
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: about that. I've got what I think is the most

30
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: underrated state and programs in the state of college football.

31
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about that on tonight's show. We

32
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: got bold predictions, we got biggest questions. We started the

33
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: show early tonight because I have a flight to catch.

34
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: As I check the wrist that there is no watch on,

35
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: So let's get to it. They're watching us in Ocilla, Georgia, Evansville, Indiana,

36
00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: Key West, Florida, Bloxi, Mississippi, not Bloxi, not Bloxi, Mississippi, Biloxi, Mississippi.

37
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: Shout out, mama. Hey, we're all about to enter July fourth,

38
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: latter portion of the week and weekend. I don't know

39
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: what you plan on doing. Be safe whatever you do,

40
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: but I'm going home, and as you know, when I

41
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: go home, sometimes I get involved in activities that the

42
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: normal person would refer to as ratchet for lack of

43
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,399
Speaker 1: a better term. So the socials are the best way

44
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: to keep up at Lake. Kick Josh and some of

45
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 1: you keep your phone on because you may need to

46
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: bail me out of jail. But it's gonna be a

47
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: fun weekend. We're happy to have you. That's why we're

48
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: doing the Thursday show on Tuesday this week. And since

49
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,399
Speaker 1: we're doing the show on Tuesday, let's dive in. There's

50
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 1: a lot going on in college football. Obviously a lot

51
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: of realignment happening in college football. Your friend here has

52
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: not been the biggest fan over to the biggest proponent

53
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,839
Speaker 1: of it, but it's happening. So we've got a brand

54
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: new SEC. And so I had someone hit me in

55
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: my DMS and he said we could take some liberties

56
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: with his question, so we sort of condensed it. Think

57
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: along with me here, don't care where you live, Think

58
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: along with me here. He said, Hey, I was wondering

59
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 1: what your take is on this. The SEC has traditionally

60
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: had its power centered around Georgia, Alabama, Florida, do you

61
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: think it's possible the balance of power could shift to

62
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 1: the Texas and Louisiana area with Texas and Oklahoma joining

63
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: the SEC. Let's talk about this. So that is very

64
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: very far out there for someone who lives in Alabaster, Alabama,

65
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: or Sandy Springs, Georgia. Those are suburbs of Birmingham and Atlanta, respectively.

66
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to get back to Florida in a second,

67
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: because I don't think the SEC has revolved around Florida

68
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: for a little while, but it did once upon a time,

69
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: and they could have something to say about this. I

70
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: think that's where the balance of power is right now.

71
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: The power has been with Alabama and Georgia. They're the

72
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: two best programs in the conference. They have for a

73
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: long time been now the two best programs in the

74
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: conference any given three or four year stretch. We're going

75
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: on like a decade now where those have been the

76
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: two most consistent programs, which is convenient for people in

77
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: the South because Birmingham and Atlanta are sort of the

78
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: two epicenters from a media standpoint in the SEC. I mean,

79
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: most folks who work in the SEC footprint in the

80
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: regional or national media space live in either Birmingham or Atlanta,

81
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: and I would say Nashville finishes a distant third, even

82
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: though that's where I live. So is this possible? First off,

83
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: could the shift happen? Is the potential there? Because frankly,

84
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if Missouri ever dominated, the balance of

85
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: power wouldn't shift like up to Missouri. That's impractical. I

86
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: think it is possible for it to shift a little

87
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: further west slash maybe west southwest though, and the reason

88
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 1: is because the premier branding is there. The premier media

89
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: markets are there, but the premier branding is there. And

90
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: I really think there's a world where if Texas were

91
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: to dominate in the SEC and Oklahoma were to dominate

92
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: in the SEC, and I mean be a ten to

93
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: winter per year caliber program. If Texas, A and M

94
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: also fit that disc decryption Arkansas, I would love for

95
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: you guys to come along and you would fit this

96
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: and make it a nice quartet. But if just those

97
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: three programs were sustained winners, think about what it would

98
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: feel like in the SEC. First off, you absolutely would

99
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: have a power shift. That don't mean Georgia goes anywhere

100
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: or Alabama goes anywhere. It just means that there would

101
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 1: be a little balance of power shift. But also the

102
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: other thing is the sort of endemic media model in

103
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: the SEC would be tested, because right now, it's if Texas,

104
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: A and M were to have done something once upon

105
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: a time, it's a bunch of folks in Atlanta talking

106
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: about him, It's a bunch of folks in Birmingham talking

107
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: about him, and then it's the Houston media market. But really,

108
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: if you get Texas and Texas, A and M and Oklahoma,

109
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: not only do you get Houston, Dallas, Austin, ok See,

110
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: you get all these different media markets that otherwise would

111
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: not have talked about SEC as much in the past.

112
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: But think about the flavor this is you as a fan. Now,

113
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: think about how that feels. Because if I'm not mistaken,

114
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: if I didn't know any better, and A and M

115
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: in Texas and Oklahoma were playing high level ball, and

116
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 1: then Alabama was as well, Auburn was as well, Georgia

117
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: was as well, South Carolina was as well. You know,

118
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: if I didn't know any better, it would almost come

119
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: to feel like two different conferences, or at least and

120
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: imagine this concept divisions within a conference. You guys, know,

121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: the culture is different in Texas than it is Georgia.

122
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: You know, the culture in Oklahoma is unique unto itself,

123
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: period and they'll be the first people to tell you

124
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: that and pride themselves on it. Being someone who storm

125
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: chases there frequently, I know that to be the case.

126
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: Best homemade jerky in the country that I've had is

127
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: in the state of Oklahoma. By the way, just a

128
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: little side note there, but if those teams collectively were good,

129
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: and let's say Georgia was good, Tennessee was good, think

130
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: about how different the Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama bubble would feel

131
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: as opposed to the Texas, Texas and Oklahoma bubble. To me,

132
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: that's how you and the flavor of divisions and little

133
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: mini conferences back into what is now a super conference sport.

134
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: And that is the answer to the question that we

135
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: just got. Yes, it would shift. Now. Florida is a

136
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: wild card if you are eighteen years old. It's been

137
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: a little while since Florida was a national championship player

138
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: in this sport, and so quickly a generation has gone by.

139
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: Remember in college football, we view a generation as a decade,

140
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: and so a generation has gone by since Florida was

141
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: a bona fide national championship contending program. But once upon

142
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: a time they were that for a long run, the

143
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 1: Steve Spurrier era. And then also then when Urban Meyer

144
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: came there, you had a double dip. And so you

145
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: had people who were twenty five years old who had

146
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: known basically their entire lives Florida to be a big

147
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: power player on the national stage. Well, what that did

148
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: and what it would do again if let's say Billy

149
00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: Napier were to bring Florida back to national real Evans

150
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: is there's a funny thing that happens when Florida is

151
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: a premier player in the national scene. Yes, you get

152
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: the Florida media markets sort of inserted into that sec hurricane.

153
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: But the thing about Florida being good is it brings

154
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: a group of people who otherwise just fly out, would

155
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: not be involved in the conversation because Florida is not

156
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: the South, which people from Minnesota and Wisconsin are shocked

157
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: to hear. But people in the South nod their heads

158
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: at with just tacit agreement. You guys know, Florida's not

159
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: the South. It is south of states in the South,

160
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: but it is not considered the South, nor is the

161
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: Orlando media market or Miami media market considered a Southern

162
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: media market, and that's the only SEC school in the state.

163
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: So if Florida is not doing anything, folks in Miami

164
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: and Orlando are not talking about the SEC nearly as much,

165
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: fractionally as much as they are. If Florida's good. The

166
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: reason I say that, Taygie, you could have a little

167
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: contingent of Texas and A and M and OU flavor

168
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: over here. You could have a contingent of sort of

169
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: SEC Eastern flavor. If Florida is good, it's its own world.

170
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 1: It's like a little independent world, a little independent bubble,

171
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: even within the SEC. And the other one that I

172
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: feel is kind of like that is LSU. When LSU

173
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: is good, LSU does not feel like they fit into

174
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: or are lumped in with a group of other schools

175
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: and other programs. Louisiana might as well be its own country,

176
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: just like Florida might as well be its own country.

177
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: A lot of you think I say that insultingly, But

178
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: as sure as I say that, folks in Louisiana are

179
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 1: pounding their fists and you better believe we are folks

180
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: in Florida. Yeah, absolutely, we are folks in Oklahoma feel

181
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: the same way about Oklahoma, by the way, So yeah,

182
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: I think a balance of power could happen, a shift

183
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: could happen. But they've got to be good, you know,

184
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: Texas A and M has to be good. Oklahoma has

185
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: to be good. Texas has to be good, and it

186
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: all kind of needs to happen. At the same time.

187
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: I'm happy to have you guys in here. You may

188
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 1: be shocked to see us on the air. Also, he

189
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,599
Speaker 1: may be shocked to look around. Colin give me a

190
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: shot on camera fourteen over here. Where are we? What

191
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: are we doing? We've been stuck in a broom closet

192
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: in Nashville for the last few months. It's nice. It's

193
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: nice to be able to stretch out, isn't it. They're

194
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: not even in the same room as me. I have

195
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: to shout to talk to them. We have gotten so

196
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: used to nicol and diming our way through the show

197
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: in our temporary set, I didn't even put an earpiece

198
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: in tonight, so hand signals only guys in the control room.

199
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: We're in South Florida because we've been doing a lot

200
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: of work down here out of our Fort Lauderdale studio

201
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: today and had some non show related meetings, some show

202
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: related meetings. Spoiler alert, it's all good news. You guys

203
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: are bringing us nothing but good news, so appreciate it.

204
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: We'll be back to normal Sunday night, whatever normal is

205
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: for us. But in the meantime, subscribe to the channel

206
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: if you haven't already, and if it's your first time here,

207
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: just don't worry. You'll get used to the aesthetic eventually.

208
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the biggest what ifs I got a

209
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: lot to get to. We're going a lot of different

210
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 1: directions on the show tonight. Hey, what if Michigan does

211
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: have a little more drop off than is it expected

212
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: this year this time of year. If you watch our

213
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: show affair amount, you know that typically if I'm going

214
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: to go either or I lean more towards glass half full,

215
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: just because it's ok to be optimistic in the summer

216
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: about teams. The bad times will come for plenty of you.

217
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: But I do think it bears repeating that Michigan had

218
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: a pretty historic season last year, and then you have

219
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: a historic head coach hit the exit door, and you've

220
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 1: got historic players hit the exit door, and so you're

221
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: looking at your preview magazines right now, and Michigan's highly rated.

222
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: Michigan is one of the odds on favorite to contend

223
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: for the Big Ten championship. They are one of the

224
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 1: odds on favorites to make the College Football Playoff. They're

225
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: over under win totals eight and a half right now.

226
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: I think that just adjusted it FanDuel fairly recently. In fact,

227
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: a lot of those numbers adjusted today. I'll talk about

228
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: that later, but Michigan figures to be in the mix

229
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: this year. Let's just say they aren't. Eight and four

230
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: sounds like a bad year from Michigan. Yet the over

231
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 1: under win totals eight and a half. So if the underhits,

232
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 1: like the first number you come to is eight and four,

233
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 1: what happens though, what's like the national conversation about them?

234
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: To me? You asked me, what if Michigan isn't quite

235
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: as good as the fan base hopes? Well, my response

236
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: will be, that's just college football. And I'd say that

237
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: absent Sharon Moore, Like, remove Sharon more from the equation

238
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: for a second. If Jim Harba were still there this

239
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: year and you had the amount of impact players walk

240
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: out the door that they had I'd expect a Jim

241
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: Harpball led Michigan team to fall back to earth a

242
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: little bit this year, So if they do, I won't

243
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: bat an eye at it now. I was talking earlier

244
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: when we were as a staff meeting about the show,

245
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: and someone said, Okay, but even though it's not an

246
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: actual sign of trouble down the road, what if it

247
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: impacts recruiting? What if an eight and four or a

248
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: seven and five season for Michigan negatively impacts recruiting? And

249
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: to that, I said, if an eight and four season

250
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: d rails Michigan's recruiting class, then they don't have the

251
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: right staff recruiting up there. And I think they probably

252
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: have the right staff recruiting. It's felt pretty good, and

253
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: they have the ability, obviously with months down the roads

254
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 1: tills to improve on the class they're bringing in this cycle.

255
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: But that normally works in an inverse manner. If you

256
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: struggle on the field, but you've got premier resources and

257
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: you've got a half decent staff, they can sell playing time,

258
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: they can sell opportunity, they can sell vision in future

259
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: and whatnot. I highly doubt an eight and four season

260
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: would damage Michigan's recruiting profile at all. But if it did,

261
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: that would actually be a bigger indication we've got issues

262
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 1: than just the fact that they win eight and four.

263
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: I mean, they got to play Texas in week two,

264
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: they got Southern Cal. They're a favorite against them in

265
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: ann Arbor. They go to Washington Michigan State, they got

266
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: Oregon that they are a field goal plus dog against.

267
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: At home, they go to Ohio State. There are several

268
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: losable games here. Eight and four is not It's not

269
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: some crazy year everyone wants to think over over over.

270
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: There are worlds where the under hits, and so if

271
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: Michigan hits the under, what I'm trying to do is

272
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: hopefully here on July second, just get ourselves on record

273
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 1: the end of the world if it happens. Next up,

274
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: what if now I want you all to listen to me.

275
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: That includes a couple of people in the control room.

276
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: What if we as a college football public viewed the

277
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: Big Twelve the way the Big Twelve should be viewed.

278
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: If you follow me on Twitter, some psychopath came at

279
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: me earlier today and started calling me out because I

280
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: called the Big Twelve America's college football Conference, which I

281
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: have called it and which I will continue to call it.

282
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: And I gave my reasons. There's no more competitive balance

283
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: top to bottom in any conference in America than the

284
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: Big Twelve. You want roster synergy, you want culture placed

285
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: at a premium. It's never on more top to bottom

286
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: display than it is in the Big Twelve. You don't

287
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: ever hear about recruiting classes being bought in the Big Twelve.

288
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: You don't hear a lot about coaching churn in the

289
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: Big Twelve. Not that it doesn't happen. But whatever your

290
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: vision of college football is and what it was yesterday

291
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: and tradition and adherence to it, they've got it in

292
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: the Big Twelve. That's why I call it America's college

293
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: football Conference. Also, you know me well enough to know

294
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: I don't need you to be a playoff contender to

295
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: enjoy watching you. I don't have that in common with everyone.

296
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: So some guy came at me and they said, why

297
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: don't you talk about the ACC that way, We'll cause

298
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: the ACC is not as fun to watch as the

299
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: Big Twelve. And I yield back the balance of my

300
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: time on that. I don't know what else he wanted

301
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: from me, but anyway, what if what if you guys,

302
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: some of you holdouts, and I know I have several.

303
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: This has become a very spirited debate between me and

304
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: portions of the audience. What if you, guys just divorced

305
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: yourself from casual casual logic for a second. What if

306
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: you just said, okay, forget about the playoff for a second.

307
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: Forget about the fact that Kansas may not necessarily be

308
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: a favorite to win at all this year, but they

309
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: could play in like half a dozen last possession games

310
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: this year. What is enjoy to me? That's all I'm asking,

311
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: because I long since divorced myself from thinking in line

312
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: with the rest of college football and the who's in

313
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: mentality and playoff implications being required for a game to

314
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: have meaning. To me, that's a loser's mentality to me.

315
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: If you're looking for an enjoyable Saturday, because you get

316
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: less and less of them, the latter, the later in

317
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: the year you get, so the Big Twelve. I'm never

318
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: sitting on this show telling you multiple championship favorites reside

319
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: in this conference because they don't. Quite the opposite. I

320
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: am telling you forget about championship implications. If you're just

321
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: looking for pure enjoyable, entertaining games. This is the conference

322
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: for you, and if you view it through that prism,

323
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: you never make these ridiculous comments that said, well, yeah,

324
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: but yeah, but what like if Iowa State places Kansas

325
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: State in one of the last weekends of the year

326
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: and it's a one possession game in the fourth quarter,

327
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: I don't care if both of them have two losses.

328
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: I don't care if at best they're looking to lock

329
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: down a ten seed in the playoff. It's college football.

330
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: Not everything has to be about the man made playoff

331
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: that's been arbitrarily placed as a caboose masquerading as an

332
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 1: engine on the back half of this train. And Thirdly,

333
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 1: we talked about Arkansas the other day. One of the

334
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,719
Speaker 1: complaints about the show over the last couple of years,

335
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,439
Speaker 1: if I'm being real with you, is that we have

336
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: shown a little too much favoritism towards Arkansas. I know, right,

337
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: I was as shocked as you guys. So I have

338
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: taken a little Arkansas sabbatical, but it's over. We talked

339
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: about Arkansas last show, and I've got a what if

340
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 1: for you right here, paper pop, just for all time sake,

341
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: What if Arkansas gets sideways early. Now I didn't say

342
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 1: we're going to talk good about Arkansas. We're just talking

343
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: about Arkansas. So my what if is, what if things

344
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 1: get sideways early for them? Their over underwent total is

345
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,479
Speaker 1: not seven and a half, not six and half, not

346
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: five and a half. It's the reverse Lebron you go down,

347
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: it's four and a half. The good news is they

348
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 1: pay Arkansas pine Bluff in week one. The bad news

349
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: is basically the rest of the schedule. So they go

350
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: to Oklahoma State in week two. They will be an

351
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 1: underdog there. They play UAB in week three, they go

352
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: to Auburn in week four, they will be an underdog.

353
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: They play Texas A and M in Dallas in week five,

354
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: they will be an underdog. They play Tennessee at home

355
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 1: week six, they will be an underdog. Then there's a

356
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: bye week. Are they going to be two and four?

357
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: And if they are, I think we all understand what

358
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: the conversation would be around Sam Pittman, Bobby Petrino. You

359
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: may call him the offensive coordinator, many call him the

360
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: interim or the head coach in waiting up there. How

361
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 1: fun to be a head coach in waiting when you've

362
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: already once upon a time been the head coach. So look,

363
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: we love our boy, Sam Pittman. I love Arkansas. I

364
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 1: don't really care if you guys know that I love Arkansas.

365
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: So I hope I'm wrong on this. But it's not

366
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: looking all that incredibly promising at the moment. So what

367
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: if it just what if it just does nothing more

368
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: than play out the way oddsmakers think it's going to

369
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 1: play out. Uncomfortable conversations will be had and then it

370
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: doesn't get any better, or they come out of the

371
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,199
Speaker 1: bye week they got LSU at Mississippi State and Ole

372
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: miss bye week again. Texas is on here, at Missouri

373
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: is on here. It's going to be a tough year

374
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: in Fayetville. And then at that point it isn't one

375
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: of those situations where we're waiting to the end of

376
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: the year and then we're going to make a change.

377
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: Do we get ahead of the curve and make it

378
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,120
Speaker 1: change in the middle of the year if we think

379
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 1: we've already got the replacement in house, does it matter

380
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: when we make the change. So a lot of what

381
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: ifs floating around the country, and especially that conference right now.

382
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: You could be floating around Academy Sports and outdoors. You

383
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 1: could you could be there and you could have a

384
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: smile on your face. No one ever frowns an academy.

385
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: The only time you frown inn academy is when mom

386
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: or dad says, no, you can't have that. And you

387
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 1: know what a negative attitude to have towards a child.

388
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: A wide eyed youth in Academy Sports and Outdoors deserves

389
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: to be spoiled every once in a while. They are

390
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 1: our longtime partner. I'm not just randomly talking about a store.

391
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: There are longtime partner outdoor supplies, sporting goods, supplies, camping supplies,

392
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: grilling supplies, big League two, etc. All the essentials. They've

393
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: got it for you there. They've got you covered. If

394
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: you can't get to one in person, Academy dot com.

395
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be real now, day after tomorrow's the day.

396
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,959
Speaker 1: It's the pinnacle of some of our years when it

397
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: comes to outdoor activities, don't be caught empty handed. Go

398
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: to Academy Sports and Outdoors where your flip flops in there,

399
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: where your American flag shorts at least, let's at least

400
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: wear shorts. Come one, come all. They welcome you, and

401
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: we appreciate them. Welcoming us, and we always welcome them.

402
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: All right, it is that time of year. It is

403
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: close enough, like they play college football next month, we

404
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 1: can legally say that it's within our right now that

405
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: it's July, because they will play games in the back

406
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: half of August, like August thirty at thirty first, we

407
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 1: got college football games next month, which means it's well

408
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 1: past time for us to do this. Colin, here's your endpoint.

409
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 1: I have in my hand, excellence, immunity. I have in

410
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 1: my hand the schedule for the twenty twenty four college

411
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: football season, and I love all of these weeks because

412
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: I am a diehard P one college football fan. Some

413
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 1: of you out there are like me. A lot of

414
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: you are like me. Some of you are kind of

415
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: sort of like us. But you may go to a

416
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: birthday party and miss the early games boo. But you

417
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 1: may do that. But I don't know if all of

418
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: you who just memorize the schedule. Fortunately, I don't have

419
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: a life to live or anything better to do, so

420
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: I have for you, and we have narrowed it down.

421
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: I think to the top four Saturdays slash top four weekends.

422
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 1: Week seven may be the best one. So I'm paper

423
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 1: popping all these. Week seven may be the best one.

424
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: This is a this is Saturday. Buffet Ole Miss is

425
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: at LSU on this day. Same day Texas OU takes

426
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 1: place from the Cotton Bowl. Same day Penn State goes

427
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: to USC and that's a conference game. Same day Ohio

428
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: State goes to Oregon and that's a conference game. Same

429
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: day Florida goes to Neeland to face Tennessee. These are

430
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: all conference games, not that we have anything against out

431
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: of conference games. Potential Big Twelve champion Iowa State goes

432
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: to West Virginia Jesse. Why is Iowa State not on

433
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: the graphic? I thought, oh, oh, you shot that down.

434
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,120
Speaker 1: We didn't have room. South Carolina's at Bama that day.

435
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 1: So there are several Tier one games and then the

436
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: Tier two games and Tier three. It's great Week seven

437
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: for my money, that's the best Saturday of the college

438
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: football season. However, if I just did it that way,

439
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: I know what the comment section would say, as would

440
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: have rebuttals. So I tried to get ahead of the

441
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: curve here. Week one. If you want to do the

442
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: start of the season, Week one is a contender. Clemson

443
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 1: versus Georgia in Atlanta. Hey man, we got Death Valley

444
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: up there, we got Sandford Stadium, so why not leave

445
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: both of those buildings empty and play in a sanitized,

446
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: neutral side environment. Absolutely, but big time teams playing in Atlanta,

447
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 1: Penn State's at West Virginia, Miami's at Florida. Can you

448
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: imagine I sweat reading that. I'm in Florida right now,

449
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 1: and it is not going to get any cooler between

450
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: now and the time that game kicks off three thirty.

451
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: By the way, if they die, they die three thirty.

452
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 1: Miami at Florida, Notre Dame at Texas A and M

453
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: doesn't figure to cool off much in College station by

454
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,959
Speaker 1: the end of August either, And then we will have

455
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:53,360
Speaker 1: to start our Sunday night show early. Why because LSU

456
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: plays USC. Try as they made to get out of

457
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: that game, USC will in fact play LSU LSU Jesse.

458
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 1: What's that line seven or eight? LSU A little over

459
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 1: a touchdown favorite, I think right now. So that's week one,

460
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: and there's a Labor Day Night game as well. Off

461
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: the top of my head, I don't remember who's in

462
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: that one, but there is a Labor Day Night game

463
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: as well. Okay, so then Week nine. Much later in

464
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 1: the season, Week nine, might I suggest to you that

465
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: before all these Saturday games you pay a little bit

466
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: of attention to Rutgers at USC on a Friday night.

467
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 1: Can I interest you some shaking their head, no, others

468
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: shaking their head? Yes, look that's on you. I'm just

469
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: telling you. I mean, seventeen to seventeen in the fourth quarter,

470
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: dog fight in the coliseum. It could happen anyway. Missouri's

471
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: at Alabama on Saturday, LSU's at a and M on Saturday,

472
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: Oklahoma at Ole, miss Florida State at Miami. That's a

473
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: really really good five or six pack of games. And

474
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: that's before we get to the B tier. And then

475
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: in Week fourteen, which is rivalry week You know how

476
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: this usually stacks up. But I told you the other

477
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: day I think Rivalry weekend this year could be as

478
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 1: explosive as it's been in a long time. I don't

479
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:07,959
Speaker 1: think I need to tell you guys why, even if

480
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: you've been tuned out, I think you know why. Michigan

481
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: Ohio State, can they make it four in a row,

482
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: probably be a double digit dog at the Shoe. Can

483
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: Michigan go in there and make it four in a

484
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: row Auburn and Alabama in the first Iron Bowl post

485
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: Nick Saban since what two thousand and six, Oklahoma at LSU.

486
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 1: How about that, just randomly, in the last week of

487
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: the year, you got Oklahoma at LSU as a conference

488
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: game circle, Texas at Texas A and M. Kyle Field,

489
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: I know how storied and tradition, rich and intense all

490
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: these rivalry games are. I'm not saying they're going to

491
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: take a back seat. I'm telling you Texas at Texas

492
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: A and M will take a back seat to no

493
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: rivalry game this year in terms of animosity. Animosity's fancy

494
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: word for just saying pure out hatred. It's a beautiful thing. Hatred. Hey,

495
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: it's totally okay. Like if Mike Tyson did to people

496
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: on the street what he did to guys in the

497
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: ring had be arrested, but it was okay in the

498
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: boxing ring. You don't need to be hating people on

499
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: the streets. But the way A and M folks feel

500
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: about Texas within the boundaries of college athletics, it's a

501
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: great thing. It's a beautiful thing. Washington's at Oregon that day,

502
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: Kansas State at Iowa State could be for a spot

503
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: in the Big twelve championship game Notre Dame US Sea.

504
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 1: It's so great. I'm not in a hurry for that

505
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 1: to get here because that means the regular season's over,

506
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: which means that we've reached our peak as far as

507
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm concerned. But yeah, week seven, Week one, Week nine,

508
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 1: and week fourteen in that order, I think those are

509
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: the biggest Saturdays this season. If you disagree, and you

510
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,400
Speaker 1: very well may. You got to sell me on why

511
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,880
Speaker 1: we're wrong on the order there. Okay, we got big questions,

512
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: got several of them to get to here. Happy to

513
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: have you guys tuned in. I know it's a little

514
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: earlier than normal. Still got a very very sizable crowd.

515
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: So you know that not only are we the number

516
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: one college football show on YouTube, we are the number

517
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 1: one college football podcast out there, and that's not our

518
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 1: main source of traffic. So anytime we're atop the podcast rankings,

519
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 1: it's just like a cherry on top for us. But man,

520
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: we appreciate it, and it means you guys have been

521
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: doing a heck of a job recruiting. So the rule

522
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: around here is in exchange for us keeping the show free,

523
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: which we are even as we speak, we're in Florida

524
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: fighting management on I'm just kidding. We're gonna keep the

525
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: show free. But in exchange for us keeping the show free,

526
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: you just got to subscribe to the channel. It's free.

527
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: Everything's free. Subscribe to the podcast, it's free. Everything's free.

528
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 1: And bring five of your friends. Okay, you can't be

529
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: you can't be criticizing other coaches recruiting. If you're not

530
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 1: recruiting for Pete State, thank you. There's nothing, nothing at

531
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: all conceded about what I just said, because I feel

532
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: it in my heart. Big questions in college football this fall?

533
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: I got one for you. If we're expanding this whole playoff,

534
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: there're gonna be twelve teams in this thing. Now, what

535
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: happens to the patience of fan bases? Everybody listening to

536
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 1: or watching this as a fan, So put your own

537
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: team in the blank here. If you're an Auburn fan,

538
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: if you're a Virginia Tech fan, if you're a Michigan

539
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 1: State fan, whoever you are, thank you for watching. And

540
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 1: if you are a fan of a team, now that

541
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: there are twelve spots, it's not the case that all

542
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: of a sudden everyone makes it. But it feels like

543
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: a bunch of folks make the playoff now. So if

544
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you don't make the playoff this year,

545
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 1: do you talk about your head coach different and think

546
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: about what NIL does on this front, think about what

547
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 1: the portal does on this front. So, in other words,

548
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: think about all these mechanisms. In reality, the sport hasn't

549
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 1: changed all that much for any one given coach or

550
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: anyone given program, because everyone has access to the portal,

551
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 1: everyone has access to using NIL, but no fan base

552
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 1: feels that way. Fan base is looking. They say, okay,

553
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: now that we can use the portal, Now that we

554
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: can use NIL, we ought to get a leg up

555
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: on everyone. I was sitting down with a general manager

556
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: of a major program and he said, you know, my

557
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: biggest fear is our NIL money drying up. And this

558
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: is a very deep pocketed program. He said, my biggest

559
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: fear is the fan base thinks they're contributing to the

560
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: collective so that we leap frog ahead of all these

561
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: other schools. He said, what they don't realize is we're

562
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: having to get them to contribute just so we can

563
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: keep up. So if they pay, they pay for a

564
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: few years and then they see, oh, we're still just

565
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 1: winning the same amount as we used to. They think

566
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: we've squandered the money away. In reality, we haven't. We've

567
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: actually properly utilized it. It's just everyone else was doing

568
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: it as well. So be that as it may, I

569
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: don't think fan bases look at it that way. I

570
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: think fan bases look can say, hold up, you can

571
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: go buy kids now, and there are twelve spots in

572
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: this thing, and if we've got holes on the roster,

573
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: you can just portle them in. You don't have to

574
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: recruit and develop anymore. Well, there's no excuse to not

575
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 1: be a contender every year. They are the same excuses

576
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 1: there always were. You just got a different format out there.

577
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: And so I look at coaches now in years past,

578
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: you study the history of the sport, Guys like Frank

579
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: Biemer famously getting over half a dozen years before they're

580
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: at the nine to win plus mark, and then all

581
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: of a sudden they go on a run. And the question,

582
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: of course, is would Frank Beemer even get that much time?

583
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: Would any coach get that much time? These days? Billy

584
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 1: Napier is a perfect case study on that. How patient

585
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: are they with him? FSU is patient enough in Norvell

586
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: and now it's working out for him. So I think,

587
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: by and large, man the bigger the salaries are, the

588
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: more talent acquisition methods you have at your disposal, and

589
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 1: the bigger the playoff is the less and less and

590
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: less patience there will be in the room. Now, that

591
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: doesn't change reality. Reality is it takes what it takes.

592
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what you think it should take or

593
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: how quick you think it should happen. It takes what

594
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 1: it takes. It takes as long as it takes. I

595
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: just think there may be some guys that aren't around

596
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: to find out because I think the leash gets much

597
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: shorter once people think the job is easier. Is it easier?

598
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, but people think it is. Next up?

599
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: Big question here, Oh, let me move this piece of

600
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: paper over. Big question here. Jalen Milroe was almost like

601
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: a Heisman finalist type guy last year's right on the precipice.

602
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: What happens if this new coaching staff actually does take

603
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: his game to the next level. Jalen Milroe is a

604
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: very interesting player because you've seen him as a starter

605
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: for like a year now, and you kind of think

606
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: the book's written on him, and that's not always the case.

607
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. But he gets a

608
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: guy that just totally resurrected Michael pennockx's career up at

609
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: Washington as his head coach now as the developer of

610
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: his offensive skill set. Now, So, Michael Pennix, how many

611
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: of you remember what his profile was when he was

612
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: at Indiana. Of course everyone remembers what he was with Washington.

613
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: Can you imagine telling anyone when that kid was in Indiana, Oh,

614
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: that dude's going to be a high level draft pick

615
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: one day. That guy is going to take a team

616
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: to a national championship game one day. That kid's going

617
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 1: to be in the mix for all the individual awards.

618
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 1: You would have looked at him in Indiana and said,

619
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: first off, he can't even stay on the field. He's

620
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: injury prone. But even when he is, he's not really

621
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: a full quarterback, like he's a runner who can throw.

622
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,719
Speaker 1: And Kaylin de Borr turned that guy into like a

623
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: full on assault weapon through the air, and you saw

624
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: what their offense did last year. So what if he

625
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: does something along those lines with Jalen Milro. I don't

626
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 1: think many people watched Milroe last year and said, boy,

627
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: that guy in terms of his presence and his ability

628
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: to process and read defenses and just go completely eviscerate secondaries.

629
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: That's not how you talked about Jalen Milroe. Huge arm,

630
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: dynamic with his legs, but you talk about him different

631
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: body type and all that. Notwithstanding, you talk about him

632
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: right now as sort of a rich man's version of

633
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: the way people used to talk about Pinnix in Indiana. Well,

634
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: what happens if all of a sudden you turn on

635
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: maybe October November and you're looking at Jaylen millwer go,

636
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: whoa dude, this news way different caliber passes than he

637
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: was last year. Well, what happens is Alabama's probably in

638
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: the mix for doing some of the same things that

639
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: they did when the Nick Saban was there. And I

640
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: know the initial take when Debor got in tuscal Lusa was, oh,

641
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: he won't be able to recruit. Well now they're recruiting,

642
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: So now the backup has to be if you're a

643
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: Bama hater out there, well they're going to take a

644
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: step back personnel wise. Maybe they're not on the level

645
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: of Ohio State or Georgia this year, but The thing

646
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: about it is Washington wasn't either. Last year. Washington didn't

647
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: have a poverty roster by any stretch. But I mean

648
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: Washington versus Texas in that semi final game, Let's be real, now,

649
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: who had the more talented roster and who ended up

650
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: running circles around who? Or Hooms ended up running circles

651
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: around hoops. So Debor comes in and gets way better

652
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 1: running back talent than he had last year and gets

653
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: a quarterback with a moldable skill set. Who knows which

654
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: of those wide receivers will develop and then blossom this

655
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 1: year that were underutilized. It's all at the feet of

656
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: that quarterback. And I mean, I think they've got guys

657
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: for the future, But I'm not talking about the future.

658
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Bama twenty twenty four. I expect it

659
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 1: to happen. I expect his play to elevate. I expect

660
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,320
Speaker 1: his ability as a passer to elevate. And maybe it

661
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: would have happened if Saban were still there and Tommy

662
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: Reese was his offensive coordinator. That's reasonable. Whatever his maximum

663
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: ability is this year as a passer, though, I think

664
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: it's reasonable to expect it from Deboor and his staff

665
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: because they've earned that benefit of the doubt. Okay, we

666
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 1: had a question about underrated programs, and I put it

667
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: out to you guys earlier today. I say today as

668
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 1: we're live right now. It's Thursday. Some of you may

669
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,239
Speaker 1: are Tuesday, some of you may be listening to this

670
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: Wednesday or Thursday. But I want you to read this

671
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: question or listen to this question along with me. Let's

672
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: see if your mind goes where my goes. So Kevin

673
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: in Tampa, Florida said, do you think there's an underrated

674
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: state in college football? It's on the rise, coming on strong.

675
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,919
Speaker 1: I do. It's ironic that Kevin asked me this because

676
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,879
Speaker 1: I was talking to someone about this two nights ago.

677
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 1: I do have one, and I'm giving you guys time.

678
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: Are you guessing like state a state, not just a program.

679
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: Think of a state in this case, that state's probably

680
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: going to have more than one program in it. I

681
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 1: think there's a slam dunk most underrated state in college football.

682
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: Kansas is the most underrated state in college football. Do

683
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: you realize what Kansas State has been doing for a

684
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: long time? But do you realize what Kansas is doing now?

685
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 1: Both of them have head coaches that we power rate

686
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: inside the top fifteen in America. Gee what I said there.

687
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: And for those of you who are older now think

688
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: about the impact of that statement. Maybe if you're fifteen

689
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: years old, you don't know any better, let me educate you.

690
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: Kansas is supposed to suck in football. Kansas State is

691
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: supposed to look at posters of Bill Snyder and talk

692
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 1: about what once was. They're not supposed to both be

693
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:12,720
Speaker 1: this good history says, but they are so. Kansas State's

694
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: over underwent total this year's nine and a half. Kansas

695
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: is eight and a half. Both of them led by

696
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,880
Speaker 1: top twenty coaches, top fifteen. To me, they're both in demand.

697
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 1: Kansas State has eight plus wins ten of the last

698
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,399
Speaker 1: thirteen years, and some of that's Bill Snyder hey Man,

699
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 1: a lot more that's Chris Cleman. As of late, they

700
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: just opened some new facilities there. And this is where

701
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: I want you to really pay attention, because the underrated

702
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,439
Speaker 1: parts not just about where they are now, it's about

703
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: where they could be headed moving forward. They are taking

704
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,439
Speaker 1: things very seriously at both of these places. I've been there,

705
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: as many of you haven't, so you may not have

706
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: seen what I'm talking about Kansas State's got a beautiful

707
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 1: new indoor. Frankly that rivals or surpasses a lot of

708
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: the places in the big ten in the sec that

709
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,919
Speaker 1: I've seen. That takes money, it takes investment, it takes

710
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 1: a lot of people signing off. Football team is already winning,

711
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 1: so they're already there on that front. But in Lawrence

712
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 1: down the road, they are doing four hundred million dollars

713
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: worth of renovations. Four hundred million in this in this economy,

714
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: in any economy, Yeah, that is a signal to the

715
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: entire world that they're taking football as seriously as anyone does.

716
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,279
Speaker 1: You've just never felt that. You've never felt that out

717
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: of Kansas. Not only has Leipold one of the best

718
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:31,280
Speaker 1: coaches in America, not only are they a legitimate conference

719
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: championship contender this year, they are signifying to America for

720
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: years to come. We are investing to be a program

721
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 1: that's at the head table or a program that's a contender.

722
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: In other words, this isn't going to be a period

723
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 1: that you look back on in twenty thirty and say,

724
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: remember when I remember when Kansas was a nice little

725
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: story for a little while, and you know what I wonder,

726
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: and I don't want to take a knock at the

727
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 1: conference that I just deemed America's college football conference. But

728
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 1: everyone's talking about conference re alignment, and everyone's talking about

729
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 1: where Florida State could go, or Clemson could go, or

730
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: North Carolina could go. Hey, I wouldn't just look over Kansas.

731
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 1: I wouldn't just completely overlook what they're doing in Lawrence.

732
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: And that's multiple sports. But I'm talking about football, not

733
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: talking about what they were. I'm talking about what they

734
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 1: are and what they could and probably will be down

735
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: the road. You do not inject four hundred million dollars

736
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: mid nine figures into your athletics to just standpat. You

737
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: don't do that. So for everyone talking about conference re alignment,

738
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 1: and you know the flashy object over here, don't forget

739
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: to look over there as well. Let us move merrily

740
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 1: along Kansas. You some eight and a half. If you're

741
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 1: into just national championship stuff, that may not sound like much.

742
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: It is a monumental accomplishment for Kansas's programmed to be

743
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: at the level where they're over into wintals eight and

744
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: a half over at FanDuel right now. And we were

745
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: looking at Fandel's numbers earlier today. There's been a lot

746
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,439
Speaker 1: of movement. So I tell you guys all the time,

747
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: if you're going to bet this stuff, do it with FanDuel.

748
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: If you're not interested in betting, then don't bet. But

749
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 1: if you want to check out the odds, you can

750
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: do that for free over at FanDuel. I would recommend

751
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: even if you've checked them out already, you may want

752
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: to head over there again because there was a lot

753
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 1: of movement in the odds market this week, so a

754
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: lot of those over unders that you may have memorized

755
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 1: may have changed. Wink nod, nod. We may have had

756
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 1: action on a few of them earlier today ourselves. It's

757
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: not time for the Rama Noodle Express yet, although it's

758
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: coming soon, it's not time for that yet. But yeah,

759
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: FanDuel is the exclusive odds provider of our show. We

760
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 1: really appreciate them and all they do for us and

761
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: will do for us this fall, and we are very

762
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: excited about that. But in the meantime, again, you might

763
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: want to just mosey on over there. You got a

764
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 1: long weekend coming up, sitting around board, check those odds out,

765
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,400

Speaker 1: something we do on this show every single night this

812
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: time of year. The things that you claim you believe

813
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 1: so much you would bet your own money, and in

814
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: some cases you send me screenshots of betting slips. So

815
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 1: whether you screenshot your prediction or not past sense screenshot,

816
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: we're here for you and we're here to hear this

817
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 1: first up tonight, the Bold Prediction here. Ohio State made

818
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: some moves in the portal. Drew said. Ohio State's running

819
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 1: back duo will each have one thousand plus yards on

820
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: the ground this season, So that's Trevion Henderson and Quinn

821
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: Shawn Judkins. Travion had nine to twenty six on the

822
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 1: ground last year and he didn't play the whole season.

823
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 1: Jukins had a little eleven hundred at Ole Miss. How

824
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 1: common do you think this is? How many times will

825
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: teams have multiple thousand yard rushers? It hasn't happened at

826
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: the Power five level since twenty twenty trivia Who was it?

827
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:19,840
Speaker 1: Whomst was it? Which team had two thousand yard rushers

828
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 1: on the same squad in twenty twenty? That was University

829
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 1: of North Carolina, So it hasn't happened since then. Only

830
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 1: forty five players entirely had one thousand yards last year,

831
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,360
Speaker 1: so we're asking for two of them to be on

832
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: the same team here. I still only make this an

833
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: eight and a half on the boldness scale because I

834
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 1: think I actually am with you. I think this will happen,

835
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,439
Speaker 1: and think about what we have working against us. Number

836
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,439
Speaker 1: one is just really hard to do. Number two. Will

837
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,840
Speaker 1: Howard's the quarterback there this year. He is also a runner,

838
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: so he may take some of that carrying yardage workload away. Thirdly,

839
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: you got to keep both guys help. Fourth Lee, is

840
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: there a four? Oh, I'll tell you. Fourthly, the one

841
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,280
Speaker 1: thing we have going for US is Ohio State probably

842
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 1: plays with a lead a lot, and they're looking to

843
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: shorten games. Therefore, they're looking to run the ball a

844
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 1: little bit more, the rare fifth Lely here fifth Ly

845
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 1: truth be told. This should be their style of play

846
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: this year. They can afford to bludgeon you and they're

847
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 1: capable of doing it. So it's an eight and a

848
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,959
Speaker 1: half on the boldness scale for me, and I want

849
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: some of that action immunity, so I'm with you. Next up,

850
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: why does he say immunity so much? Someone asked in

851
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 1: the live chat the other day, Well, if you've ever

852
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 1: had it, that's what she said. Dropped on you. You

853
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 1: understand you got to say immunity beforehand, and they're not

854
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: allowed to say it to you. And if that's still confusing,

855
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: don't worry about it. Next up from Pendergrass, Georgia. Georgia

856
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: beats Bama, Texas and Old Miss All on the road

857
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,439
Speaker 1: by double digits. You know what, Jesse, I didn't see

858
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 1: that last little part there by double digits, So that

859
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 1: changes things significantly. We've got a nine point seventy five

860
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: on our hands here. George's not beating the three teams

861
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: by double digits. There's a definitive statement in July for

862
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,800
Speaker 1: the haters who say I never make it. Georgia is

863
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 1: in a new world here, you know, Georgia, not that

864
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: they're not premiere in every sense of the word as

865
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 1: a program, but this schedule is about to be a

866
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: different world for Georgia moving forward too, since you don't

867
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:22,399
Speaker 1: get to feast on the SEC East anymore. They go

868
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: so to Alabama, They're going to be about a three

869
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,239
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite as it stands right now,

870
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,399
Speaker 1: about a field goal or so favored at Alabama. They

871
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 1: go to Texas, they will as of now be favored.

872
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,359
Speaker 1: They're favored by one and a half at Texas right now.

873
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 1: They look to be favored by somewhere between four and

874
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 1: five points at ole Miss as of now. And they're

875
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 1: going to win all three of those by double digits.

876
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 1: Well I don't think they are. I don't think they're

877
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: going to win all three of the games, much less

878
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 1: by double digits. So nine point seventy five on the

879
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 1: Boldenes scale from me there, that will be viewed in

880
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 1: some parts of my home state as disrespect. Next up,

881
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 1: we have a ten. We have a ten. Listen to

882
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 1: this Travis hometown, Lynchburg, Virginia making a statement that Travis,

883
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: quite frankly, I am not sure you have placed your

884
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 1: own hard earned money on. But nevertheless, Colorado and Virginia

885
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 1: Tech make the playoff. This is a ten This is

886
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 1: not gonna happen, but both of them making the playoff.

887
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 1: If you did parlay that one of the most evil

888
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:30,240
Speaker 1: words in the English speaking language, parlay ten dollars would

889
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,799
Speaker 1: return a little over twenty seven hundred dollars. So that's

890
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,319
Speaker 1: what FanDuel thinks about it. In other words, they are

891
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 1: begging for that ten dollars bill because they can apparently

892
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 1: spend it wiser than you can. Virginia Tech's over under

893
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 1: win totals eight and a half. They are plus nine

894
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: fifty to make the playoff. They have the sixth best

895
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: odds to win the ACC that's already a long shot.

896
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: We have to have them win that thing or make

897
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 1: the playoff. And then we also have to have Colorado

898
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 1: with an over underwent total at five and a half

899
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 1: with the eleventh best to win the Big twelve plus

900
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: twenty five hundred to make the playoff. We have to

901
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: have both of them make it. Side note, side note,

902
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: did you notice that Colorado has the eleventh best odds

903
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,400
Speaker 1: to win their own conference, but they are a top

904
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: twenty team for EA Sports is anyone noticing the discrepancy. No,

905
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,319
Speaker 1: just me, Okay, that's a ten. I don't know what

906
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:23,959
Speaker 1: else I'll say. That's a ten, And Travis, I'm gonna

907
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,439
Speaker 1: need to see the screenshot on the betting slip because

908
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,359
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I know you like I think

909
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: I do, although we've never met, that you believe that?

910
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 1: Next up? Now, what would have to happen for this

911
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 1: to go down? Stan out of Knoxville said, a ten

912
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 1: to two SEC team gets left out of the playoff, Well,

913
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 1: where is this happening? First off? And no matter where

914
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,720
Speaker 1: it happens, how did it happen? I've got to believe

915
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,360
Speaker 1: there is no world where the SEC is down and

916
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,160
Speaker 1: a ten to two team is left out, because that

917
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: would mean you have a shortage of SEC teams in

918
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 1: the playoff, which means they're looking for anybody worth anything,

919
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 1: and ten and two would more than get you in.

920
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: So the only way this happens is if the SEC's

921
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 1: loaded this year and there's a whole bunch of twelve

922
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: and zero or eleven and one or a bunch of

923
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:16,920
Speaker 1: ten and two, and one of the ten and two

924
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,800
Speaker 1: teams on the periphery gets left out in the cold

925
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: just because there wasn't room for them because there were

926
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 1: too many SEC teams. This probably also means Notre Dame

927
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 1: took up a spot they're in. The Big ten was

928
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: probably strong and there were just enough quality teams to

929
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: where a ten and two sec got left out. I

930
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 1: don't think a ten and two secs getting left out.

931
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: So this is a nine point twenty five on the

932
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 1: boldness scale. And if a ten and two set team

933
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 1: does get left out, can you imagine Oklahoma going ten

934
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 1: and two and they lost to Texas? So Texas is

935
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,319
Speaker 1: in the SEC championship game against Georgia or someone like that,

936
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 1: so O, you goes ten and two. They did everything

937
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: that you asked of them, far above and beyond you

938
00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:59,959
Speaker 1: think the barometer going to make the playoff, and they're

939
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,879
Speaker 1: out so that Liberty can go to the playoff. Can

940
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 1: you imagine the warranted outrage in Norman, Oklahoma. Yeah, so

941
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 1: that's a nine point seventy five for me. I sincerely

942
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: thank you guys for tuning in. Honestly, I thought we

943
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 1: were going to have a situation where our live viewership

944
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 1: was way down tonight and then our replay viewership was up.

945
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,719
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll get big replay, but we got live in

946
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,839
Speaker 1: big ways tonight, So we thank you so much for that.
