The CFP Rankings JUST BROKE College Football Twitter

College football rankings, the College Football Playoff race, Oregon Ducks, Georgia Bulldogs, Alabama football, Miami Hurricanes football, Notre Dame football, BYU, Ole Miss and Oklahoma Sooners, ohio state football are all under the microscope in this live show as George Wrighster reacts to the latest CFP rankings ahead of conference championship weekend. With the Big Ten, SEC, ACC and Big 12 titles on the line, every move the committee makes changes the path for programs like Texas Tech football and Texas A&M as they fight for respect, bowl position and future playoff access in an expanded field.

George goes through the rankings line by line and asks the questions fans are screaming about: did the Ducks do enough to control their Big Ten destiny, are the Bulldogs still treated like the standard in SEC football, and did Alabama football get the benefit of the doubt once again? He dives into where Miami Hurricanes football and Notre Dame football really stand in the ACC and national conversation, whether BYU is being punished for schedule and conference, and how Ole Miss and the Oklahoma Sooners fit into the Big 12 and SEC chaos heading into championship weekend.

Throughout the live stream, George mixes instant reaction with big-picture talk: who actually deserves a playoff shot, which brands are living off reputation, and how these rankings set up maximum drama when the Big Ten, SEC, ACC and Big 12 titles kick off. Tap into the chat and sound off with your own top four, your biggest gripe with the committee, and which team you think is one upset away from crashing the College Football Playoff party.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
College football playoff rankings. This is the reaction because the committee,
Lord have mercy. They they're playing in our face. They
are playing in our face, and I see right through it.
It is clear as day what the committee tried to

(00:31):
do today. They are protecting certain teams. They are making
sure that no matter what happens in the conference championship,
the SEC teams are protected. We gotta talk about that.
We gotta talk about Texas. We gotta talk about whether
they have a legitimate right, what's going on with Notre
Dame in Miami, because there's a lot going on and

(00:53):
the committee, Lord have mercy. Now, your check was asked
about this specifically, and it was clear as day what
he was trying to trying to do. He didn't want
to say the quiet part out loud, but we all
know the truth. And this is why you are here
to because I'm college Football's honesty brokeer, the man who

(01:14):
is the truth teller when other people don't want to
tell it. The networks aren't allowed to say it, but
guess who he is allowed to say it? Your boy,
I am allowed to say it, all right. So let's
start with the rankings, just in general. So we're gonna

(01:34):
pull up the rankings and then we will go from there.
In case you didn't see him, here are the college
football rankings versus the Let me get this ap pole
up off your screen right now, because it don't even
matter right now. So we got the College Football Playoff
ball in case you missed it. So there are a

(01:57):
key pieces of things and the main things that you
want to see are and this involves the ACC Tulane
at number twenty, North Texas at number twenty four, and
those who play each other, and then you have James
Madison at number twenty five. All of these teams are
playing in their conference championship. So all three of those

(02:19):
teams and that matters for specific purposes because no matter
who wins out of Tulane in North Texas, they are
for sure going to the College Football Playoff. If it
is Tulane, it creates a big situation. I'm sorry. If
it's North Texas, there's then there is a way I

(02:40):
guess could get raked in front of them, but no,
and then you got James Madison playing Troy. The reason
why this matters is because where the ACC is ranked,
you have Miami at number twelve. They're not getting in
the college football play if they might as well give up.
And I know that your check said that, yeah, the
teams can change next week. He's just not trying to

(03:00):
box himself in and the committee in. So that's the
first thing. Then you got Virginia ranked number seventeen. They're
playing against Duke, who is now unranked. Now, on one hand,
logic would tell you that if Virginia wins, then yes,
the ACC is fine, that is clear as day. But

(03:22):
what happens if Duke beats Virginia? Now the committee is
either gonna end, especially if Tulane beats North Texas because
Tulane's already twenty so then tulaneo' have a ranked win
and then you're gonna jump Duke in front of Tulane.
That ain't happening. But are they what they be willing

(03:43):
to jump Duke in front of James Madison? That's the question,
because if Duke finishes behind James Madison in the rankings
and they win the conference championship, then the ACC is
going to get no representative into the college football playoffs. That,

(04:03):
my friends, would cause every bit of hell to break loose.
And I want you guys to talk about that that
would cause every single bit of hell to break loose.
And you guys make sure that you guys like subscribe,
get notifications, tell a friend about the show. If you're
watching on Twitter, hit the link and watch it on YouTube. Man.

(04:25):
But we appreciate your time because you guys are one
of us. So that's the first thing for the acc
second thing is Texas fans. Texas is at number thirteen.
That is exactly where Texas fans should be. And all
of this lobbying by Steve Sarkesian, it has been nauseating.

(04:47):
It has wanted to make me throw up the idea
that you have Texas, big bad Texas sitting here trying
to convince everybody that they should be in and trying
to blame it on the Notre Dame, on the on
the Ohio State win. Oh Man. Then then maybe we

(05:10):
shouldn't schedule non tough, non conference games. No no, no no.
Maybe you shouldn't get beat late in the season by
Georgia by twenty five, and maybe you shouldn't lose to Florida.
Maybe those two things it ain't The Ohio State lost.
The Ohio State loss actually makes you look better. Sorry, Texas, fans,

(05:33):
There is no reason why Texas should be in the
top twelve, in the top ten where you need to
get in right now. Who are you gonna put them over?
Notre Dame, No Alabama, You for sure ain't putting them
over Obama. How about Oklahoma, Well they beat Oklahoma. Well
guess what, Oklahoma didn't lose to Florida. You have to

(05:54):
navigate your schedule. It's not just who you beat, even
though that that does matter. It matters because when you
can lose to Florida State and beat Oklahoma, it means
you're a wishy, washy up and down team. That's exactly
what that means. So people are in conflating it and oh, well,
then don't schedule tough and then and don't schedule a

(06:17):
non conference game, play your nine Power four games in
the SEC conference games next year, and then people will
be saying, oh, well, well you didn't play anybody in
the non conference, and then you'll be looking goofy again.
You'll be looking goofy again. This is just a case
of in the world, in sports, in the world, bad

(06:38):
things happen to good people. Sometimes. In Texas, you are
a good football team and something bad happen to you.
But guess what. That leads me to my next point.
The committee. This is dastardly. This is collusion, if you will,
by the College Football Playoff Committee moving Notre Dame who

(07:01):
absolutely tore the cover off of Stanford behind Alabama. It's
protection for Alabama and it is cover for the College
Football Playoff Committee. It is cover. Let me explain to
you why if BYU beats Texas Tech and has to

(07:31):
jump into the College Football Playoff, they don't want them
to knock Alabama out if they lose to Georgia, they
want them to knock Notre Dame out. They did this
intentionally that way. Next week, if BYU does beat Texas Tech,
now you're bumping Notre Dame out. And if you bump

(07:53):
Notre Dame out, what can Miami fans say to you? Nothing? Nothing,
Because Miami fans the only thing that they have to
stand on right now is we beat Notre Dame. And
Notre Dame's in the playoff in front of us. So
if you take so, if BYU wins and then you
knock Notre Dame out of the equation, doesn't matter what

(08:17):
you did to Miami because now they got no leg
to stand on. They got no gripe because they're gone.
Are y'all feeling me right now? Are y'all picking up
what I'm putting down? Because this is intentional? This is intentional.
I just saw a comment Notre Dame does not deserve
to be in I don't know how. I don't know

(08:40):
how we get to that point, because I don't believe
that Notre Dame has beaten they've beaten. The only non
Power five school that they've played has been Boise State.
They beat Arkansas, which is apparently a good SCC win.
They beat in C State, They beat Boston College, whtinks.

(09:01):
They beat Navy, who is a formidable opponent, beat a
ranked pit team, beat them up, dominated Syracuseon, dominated Stanford. Now, granted,
if you had looked last year, this schedule looked a
little bit tougher than it did this season because some
of the teams turn't panned out to not be as
good as they were. They Notre Dame did beat USC,

(09:25):
so you can't say that they beat nobody and so,
and we're saying that Notre Dame is two and two
team versus teams who Texas beat. Texas lost to Florida.
It has nothing to do with the Ohio State win.
So let's get get to that. And then so they

(09:48):
are protecting it, and they are giving themselves cover to
protect Alabama because what happens if they had left it
the same, Notre Dame at nine, Alabama at ten? What
happens then? Even if BYU didn't win. Let's say BYU lost,

(10:13):
what happens if Georgia then tears the cover off of
Alabama by multiple scores, It's gonna be hard in the
sensibilities not to drop them at least one spot, which
would have taken them out of the College Football Playoff.
That's why I'm saying this is intentional by the College

(10:33):
Football Playoff Committee to protect Alabama. I'm telling you that's
why they did it. Now. The other thing that is
very interesting is that moving Alabama up to nine now
brings the question of now brings the question of what
happens if Alabama, who's sitting at number nine now beat

(10:56):
Georgia in the SEC Championship like they did earlier in
this seas? How far up can you actually move Alabama?
Because can you move Alabama in front of Oklahoma who
beat them? Can you move Alabama all the way up
to number four, jumping Texas A and m oh missing Oregon.

(11:17):
I don't believe so, but they are going to leave
room for that because imagine a world, and there's two
parts to this. Imagine a world where Oregon, Ohio State,
and Indiana all get buys. Let's say the Big Ten

(11:38):
Championship is close Indiana, Ohio State, whoever the winner is.
If it's a close game, Indiana, Ohio State. And then
if Georgia loses or Texas Tech loses, now you're gonna
end up with three Big Ten teams in with bys.

(11:58):
And now, mind you, it makes and the byes they
feel like a good thing, right, It feels like a
good thing, like, yes, you earned some off time you're
in the top four. It feels prestigious. But what do
you actually win from getting a bye? Nothing? This is

(12:20):
why if we're gonna stay at twelve teams, you can
put the first games as bowl games if you want to,
I don't care. But the second round games where the
teams have buys, those teams should get to play at home. Otherwise,
what are you actually getting by getting a buye? Because

(12:41):
if you pay attention to Oregon situation, Oregon won't play
for thirty two days if they end up with a buye.
If you ask Kirby Smart, would he rather play on
the nineteenth or the twentieth or have a buye until
the until New Year's Eve New Year's Day, he would

(13:03):
tell you he would rather play on the nineteenth and
the twentieth based upon the way his team reacted last year.
Dan Lanning's team reacted, Arizona State reacted, and Boise State.
All the teams last year that had buys lost all
of them. They all lost. So how are we so like?

(13:26):
The bye is not a benefit or hasn't been proven
to be a benefit at this point in time, So
why would you even want it? Right right now? You
can either be playing against a team who just played
eleven days before they played you and is warm and
revveed up and ready to go, or you can be

(13:50):
playing against somebody who had an equal three week layoff
from you and might be rusty and ready to and
not as ready to go either. Imagine that, which one
are you choosing? Exactly? So? The byes, even though they seem,

(14:10):
you know, great and magnified, they are not quite as
good as people believe that they are. The byes are
troublesome because coaches and I know because I got a
chance to see last year Dan Landing in the Oregon team.
They were busting heads in practice, they were playing hard
everything else. But you cannot simulate game intensity, game reality.

(14:35):
You can't do any of that in practice. This is
why teams that play every week, even when they have injuries,
they still manage to find a way to play well.
It is simple, it is clear. But this does beg
the question about playoff expansion. Now, I was always a

(14:58):
proponent of expansion. I was like, we need to expand
from four. The answer to me was always sixteen because
I don't believe in teams having buys, and especially if
you're not gonna give them a home playoff game. So
but they're talking about expanding the twenty four. This is
foolishness because if we look at the at the teams,

(15:20):
it would be nice to reward BYU for a really
good season, or Miami for a really good season, or
Texas for figuring it out, or Vanderbilt. But the idea
that we're gonna sit up here and threaten college football
all the Texas fans will change our schedule, go on

(15:41):
and do it, then be week, be weak. But that
is no different than USC fans trying to duck Notre Dame,
your biggest rival. So Texas, you're supposed to be Texas.
You got Nio money, you got a great coach, you
got all this stuff, but now you want to duck
the smoke. Go win your damn football game. We don't

(16:04):
want to hear it. We do not feel sorry for
number ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen who gets left out. You can't.
It's like in the NCAA tournament, sixty eighteen, well sixty
eight teams, and we're crying about the first four out.
Hey man, it's tough. You should have won more games

(16:25):
during during the season. You should have won one or
two more games and then you would have been just fine.
I feel sorry for anybody is There's no crying in baseball,
no crying in football. It's ridiculous. So that's what the
committee did. They are boxing them them in and they

(16:46):
are going to intentionally leave out Notre Dame and Miami.
If BYU wins book it, book it now. The biggest
question is also, oh miss, oh miss bagged off. I
find this very interesting, so old Miss offensive coordinator Charlie Weiss.

(17:09):
Who's going down to Old Miss? He decides, and he
probably has some talks with the administration because Old Miss
probably talked to the College Football Playoff Committee and was like, yo,
we yes, we have a new head coach, but we
lost our play caller, we lost our head coach, we

(17:30):
lost our offensive coordinator, So how are we supposed to play?
So they were going to drop them severely, I believe,
so now the question, and I do believe that Old
Miss should have gotten dropped past number seven. I think
that they should be number eight nine, and I believe
that the committee is probably going to do that and

(17:51):
put them on the road because of this fiasco. That's
what I would do. I would leave Old Miss in
the playoffs. And remember Lane Kiffen, according to reports, made
an ultimatum to his staff, if you don't get on
this plane, there's no job. But you know how it

(18:16):
is when people get heated and they get in arguments,
they say things that they don't mean, and then a
few days later they come out all right, look, look,
look I know what I said. I was mad at
the moment. Let's try to find a resolution to this.
And now Old Miss has a resolution. Charlie Weiss is
still going down there to LSU, but he's going to

(18:37):
coach and be the offensive coordinator. Now Lane Kiffen is
usually the play caller. So this gives Charlie Weiss additional
personal experience being a play caller, and it also which
will boost his resume if they win. But it also
gives the kids a fighting chance. And that part I love,

(19:01):
that part, I love, so I'm happy. I'm happy, happy
about that. So the question is out of all the
top ten teams, because eleven through twelve don't really Eleven
through twenty five don't really matter right now. I look
at these teams, and one of these teams does not

(19:23):
look like the other. I believe that Texas A and M. Yes,
they have navigated their schedule. They're probably a bit overrated,
but they've navigated their schedule. Nothing really you can say
about that. Same way you can't criticize Indiana, same way
you can't criticize Ohio State or Notre Dame or anybody else.

(19:47):
But the one team that doesn't look like anybody else's Oklahoma.
This team phenomenal on defense. Brent Vinnables has done a
great job turning this team around after the Lincoln Riley
crushed it when he left. But here is the issue.
Oklahoma's offense is putrid. I do not believe that there

(20:10):
is a team outside of Alabama in the top ten
that Oklahoma can beat. I do not there is not
a team in the top ten that Oklahoma can beat

(20:31):
cept Alabama. That's it. They go against Notre Dame, They're
gonna get the cover blown off of them because they
can't score and Notre Dame's defense is good enough to
keep them from scoring. They can't beat Oregon. They can't
beat Texas Tech. They damn sure can't beat Texas Tech.
That's for show. They can't beat Georgia, can't beat Indiana,

(20:55):
and they can't beat Ohio State. Now here is the
other part of about this is this is one of
the things that people don't want to admit about this,
about the playoff situation and everything else. The thing that
we need more than anything is uniform scheduling. And you
guys make sure that you guys like subscribe, get notifications,

(21:17):
tell a friend about the show, and keep sharing. That's
why we are one of the fastest growing college football
shows on YouTube and on x because we bring the truth,
and y'all keep showing up because it is because of y'all.
But think about that this. I'm looking at this and

(21:38):
I'm saying, let's look at this bracket. So here's the bracket.
Here's the bracket as it stands right now. And we
talked about number twelve and number eleven so far because
we got we got a situation where if the ACC champion,

(22:00):
and I'll pull up the rankings in case somebody just
came in. So you see how Tulane is ranked number
twenty and we have Texas North Texas number twenty four,
Virginia is number seventeen, James Madison number twenty five. The
reason why those things matter James Madison is in a

(22:22):
different conference than Tulane and North Texas and the five
highest ranked conference champions get automatic birds. So if Virginia
wins the ACC Championship against Duke, the ACC has no problem.
Virginia goes to the College Football playoffs. If Duke so
happens to win, now you're gonna be saying, now, Duke

(22:46):
has to be praying that James Madison loses in the
College football in their conference championship. They have to because
there is no other way that they're gonna be able
to get into Yeah, hoping that they lose to Troy,

(23:08):
because there's no other way for them to get into
the College Football Playoff. There's no other way because Duke
is not going to even after beating number seventeen, Virginia
would not jump to Lane if they beat North Texas,
they would not. There's no chance because they're ranked number twenty.

(23:29):
But might they jump James Madison even if James Madison wins.
That's the question, and I believe that they would because
do you know what type of hell firestorm that would
ignite by having Miami sitting at number twelve and then

(23:52):
and then no ACC team get to be in the
College Football Playoff? So let look at the bracket because
and we're gonna examine both case scenarios, because if you
have number number twelve right now as it stands right
this second, you would have TWU Lane, North Texas or

(24:17):
James Madison. Well actually it would be two Lane or
North Texas at number twelve. Virginia right now would be
number eleven. But if Duke then wins the ACC Championship
and Tulane or North Texas they're probably going in that
eleven spot. So now imagine a world think about this.

(24:41):
Imagine a world where North Texas, I'm sorry, where Ole Miss,
without their head football coach, got to play North Texas
or Tulane in the first round of the playoffs. Imagine
that what that would be such good fortune for them?

(25:04):
It would be insane. You cannot put together a world
where you have them playing. You can't. That is absolute craziness,
absolute craziness where you would give Old Miss that sort

(25:28):
of good fortune. And if your Oregon, honestly, I think
that you would rather stay at the number that you
would rather be in the sixth spot or the five
spot than moving up to the four spot, because then

(25:48):
you would get a home game in Aunton Stadium. It's
the same way Oklahoma would get a home game against
Alabama right now. So I do not believe that there's
no to be a great deal of movement from the
from the rankings and the bracket that we have right
right now. Is there anybody in the chat that believes

(26:10):
that that BYU, after getting beat twenty nine to seven
by Texas Tech, is then going to turn around and
beat Texas Tech. Does anybody actually believe that. I'm just
saying I think it is highly doubtful. So let's examine
this this bracket though, because I think that it's fair

(26:33):
to talk about who would win as it is so constructed,
I think it is fair to say that whoever is
sitting in the twelfth spot, that Oregon beats them and
then Oregon advances to the next line. Under this current bracket,
Oklahoma already beat Alabama. Alabama still can't run the football,

(26:54):
but Alabama outgained them in every way and turned the
ball over. So do you believe that that would happen again?
I got my money on I got my money on
Oklahoma again, which is crazy. So then I'm gonna put
Oklahoma versus Ohio State. There is a zero percent chance
zero that Oklahoma can beat Ohio State outside outside of

(27:22):
Jeremiah Smith, Julian Saying, and Cardneal Tate all in, if
they all ended up hurt, Oklahoma still couldn't even score
enough points to beat Ohio State. That's how crazy that
that is. Because Ohio State is only giving up eight
points a game. Are they generationally good or are they

(27:45):
just haven't been tested yet? Oh and somebody else brought
up another situation. That and in the chat, yo, yo,
the chat's been awesome, y'all. Y'all got some good thoughts today.
So what happens if James Madison loses and Duke wins
and UNLV wins their conference. Now that's another situation because

(28:10):
UNLV is sitting at ten into as well, and they're
not getting any love. But I believe the SEC, because
they are a big dog, is gonna get the benefit
of the doubt because then you'd be like Duke's beating
seven Power five teams could compare to Dukes one were UNLV,
So how could we even compare these two things. I'm

(28:36):
telling you this is absolute the the the committee, and
to go back in case you guys just joined it,
the Committee is protecting Alabama with this. They're they're playing
in our face. They are protecting Alabama by jumping Alabama
in front of Notre Notre Dame. In case you missed it,

(28:58):
what the Committee is doing. It is clear as day
what they are doing. The Committee is protecting Alabama because
if Alabama loses in the conf there's two parts to this.
First part, if Alabama loses in the conference championship to
Georgia and they lose by two scores, they lose by

(29:19):
ten points. That's fourteen points. That's an ugly loss. So
if they were sitting at ten, even though that you
shouldn't get penalized for playing an extra game, you did
get your doors beat off, and you have lost to
Florida State and you did lose to Oklahoma. So now
how could you make a case for like leaving BYU

(29:40):
out at that point. Well, actually assuming that BYU lost
in the conference championship, Now we're arguing about Miami, Okay,
So then that gives you a whole different can of worms.
But here is what the committee is really protecting against

(30:00):
Texas Tech plays BYU. If Texas Tech gets beat well,
so if BYU beat Texas Tech, BYU gets the automatic
birth and Texas Tech is not getting left out of
the College football playoffs. So now BYU essentially would jump
in front of Alabama where Alabama was or Notre or

(30:24):
Notre name, which either way just push would have pushed
Alabama out of the College football playoff. They are protecting
Alabama in case BYU beats Texas Tech because they do
not want to leave Alabama out of the college football playoffs.
It would take Alabama getting probably getting beat by three

(30:44):
scores to get them out of the college football playoffs.
Now here is where the Committee wins big. The Committee
is hoping. I'm telling you this right now. I believe
this with every part of my court. I believe that
the Committee want BYU to beat Texas Tech. It solves

(31:05):
all their problems if that happens. If BYU beat Texas Tech,
Texas Tech is staying inside. They're at number four right now,
they're staying inside of the top ten. BYU bumps into
in front into the top ten. Now what do you get?
Wink wink, not nod. Notre Dame is then bumped out

(31:29):
of the college football playoff. So now you have solved
your biggest problem. You have solved the biggest talking point.
Now you have solved every single thing that people can
call you a hypocrite about, because then Notre Dame gets
left out of the college football playoff and Miami gets
left out of the college football playoff. If both of

(31:50):
those teams get left out of the college football playoffs,
the Committee has nothing, has nothing for anybody to be
mad about, because both then Notre Dame and Miami, who
people have been crying about that head to head about
they're both gone vanish and now they're sitting pretty and

(32:14):
now everybody's looking like the committee did a good job. Boom.
Now the question is, oh, well, okay, okay, I have
a question. So in the chat and I'm seeing and
I'm saying what you guys are saying in the chat. Well,

(32:34):
people are complaining because they have obvious biases. Who's the
committee biased against? Right right now? Because the SEC is
gonna go crazy if Alabama beat Georgia and then Ohio State,
Indiana and Oregon all get buyased, They're gonna go berserk
over that berserk because if Ohio State Indiana is a

(32:59):
close game, they're probably gonna finish one two or one three.
That's it. And then if Georgia or Texas Tech loses,
Oregon is gonna move and slide into that force spot.
If they both lose, they might mess around the slide
into the three spot, and then SEC fans are gonna
be screaming conspiracies all over the place. Look at the

(33:20):
big ten, Look at them. They don't play anybody. They
got buys. Buys ain't the best thing. Oregon would have
thirty two days off that ain't it. And the funny
part is, and I'm happy somebody just brought this into
the chat. They said the Big Twelve is terrible and

(33:40):
they have the number eleven and number fourteen. That is
verifiably false. I am telling you right now, Texas Tech,
I believe, is probably the second best team in the
country right now, not one, not three, not four. This
is a defense that is the number one defense in

(34:02):
the Big Twelve. They are one of the top defenses
in all of college football. They're giving up less than
one hundred rushing yards per game. They are they Rodriguez
is being a stud. This team is much better than

(34:24):
people are giving them credit for. And this is the
problem honestly with the Committee and fans on some level,
because think about Indiana from last year. One of the
talking points about Indiana was this team's overrated and blah
blah blah. Same talk they're talking about Texas Tech right now.

(34:46):
But the reason why they're doing it is brand. It
is brand. They are not comfortable and they don't trust
the Texas the Texas Tech brand. Yet they don't trust
the Indiana A brand. Jet as really good football teams,
they don't trust them. And I said this last last year.

(35:09):
Remember in the beginning of the season, where you know,
even after Oregon beat Penn Penn State, people were super
high on them, and then Penn State falls apart, they
fired James Franklin, all their hopes and dreams are dashed
and everything else, and then people start saying, oh, who's
Oregon beat. But the difference is the Oregon brand is
so strong. They were number one in the nation for

(35:32):
the vast majority of last season. They've gone to national championships,
even though that they haven't won one. People feel very
comfortable with the Oregon brand. They've gone to Ohio State
and one, they've beaten the SEC teams. They've done all
of these things to establish enough credibility for people to
give you the Joel Clap benefit of the doubt. But

(35:55):
Texas Texas brand in people's minds, I'm not talking about
on the field, because you can't judge it over his
You're not supposed to judge it over historical basis supposed
to be this particular season. That's it. People aren't comfortable
with the Indiana branch at people are not comfortable with
the UH with the Texas Tech brand, yet they are new,

(36:18):
they're Johnny come latelies and until people until people see
Indiana beating Ohio State, beat the Old Miss beat a
and truthfully, if they beat Old Miss, they'll be like, oh, yeah,
it was Old Miss s they had a culture. It's
just Old Miss. Anyway, until you beat Georgia Alabama, Notre

(36:39):
Dame Texas, they ain't gonna believe in you, the same
way that they don't believe in Vanderbilt in the SEC.
They're like, oh, that's a nice story, but it's still Vanderbilt.
They believe that Vanderbilt is gonna fall off after this season,
that it's that, that it's over, that is as soon
as the Diego Pavey is gone. And I find it

(37:04):
very very interesting. I see a thing where it says
where it says in the chat, Texas Tech does not
deserve to be at number four if they lost the
ASU Texas See this lets me know that people don't
watch the Big twelve. If you are an SEC team
or a Big ten team, you don't watch the Big

(37:26):
twelve as much I do. That's why you come here
for me to give you the answer to the test.
Texas Tech lost to Arizona State, who is a good
football team. They were ranked number twenty four or yeah,
they were ranked in side of the top twenty five
last week, and we're in the college Football playoff. Last
year and they were without their quarterback for the last

(37:47):
five They've been without Sam Levitt five or six games
this year. Texas Tech played them without Baron Morris, their
starting court. He was gone. Texas Tech is one, I
think every single other game by at least twenty points.

(38:08):
I believe that teams should be ranked upon three separate
criteria quality wins, schedule played in dominance. They have the
text Tech dominated by U, they dominated the rest of
their schedule, and they have a couple of quality wins.

(38:28):
So miss me with all of that, and you are right,
Bandy did pick up Jared Curtis the the and National
Signy Day is tomorrow. They did pick up Jared Curtis,
which is a big deal. One of the top five
quarterbacks in the country. Flipped from Georgia to Vanderbilt. Yo.

(38:52):
Everybody was after this kid. Oregon was after him. Georgia
clearly landed them, so many other schools were after him.
And he flipped from Georgia to Vanderbilt because he wanted
to play immediately same way the kid Jared Keewe Sagapool
Telly at Cal went to Oregon and then immediately bolted
to Cal because he was like, oh damn, I'm not
gonna play in front of Dante. Just saying, but these

(39:19):
bys completely over. These buys until proven otherwise, the buys
are awful. All four teams that had buys last year, Oregon, Georgia,
Arizona State, and Boise State all lost. And it's not
just that they all lost. They all started the first
half out extremely slow. They had twenty four or twenty

(39:43):
five days off from their last game. Oregon played in
the Big Ten Championships, still had twenty four days off.
Now Oregon would have thirty two days off between games.
If they end up with a bye, that would be awful.
That would be awful. Now. Now, now here's another thing

(40:07):
that I wanted to talk about today because this is
a news that's dominating the cycle, and you guys, I
have interviews up here on the channel with Tashlupoi. If
you are a Cal fan and you want to know
what Kyle is getting and what Oregon is losing in
their defensive coordinator and what Kentucky is getting out of
will Stein, who is their new head coach. Interview Will Stein.

(40:29):
That's up on there as well. So think about this
Oregon team. Oregon is now losing their offensive coordinator and
defensive coordinator. So people are wondering, like, what does this
mean for Oregon? Is Oregon gonna fall off and all
this stuff. Here's the thing, coaches from every other school

(40:50):
are going to be tripping over themselves to get up
to get to coach Orgon because Dan Lanning is establishing
his coaching tree right right now. He's now had two
head coaches under him. Now if they do well, and
then he's grooming other head coaches because he's not a
guy who's trying to trying to keep all the wealth

(41:12):
and all the success for him himself. Question in the chat,
how is texting him the worst one loss team with
a stronger schedule than both Texas than both Tech and Oregon.
That is definitely not the truth. Okay, let's let's pull

(41:35):
up since since everybody wants to talk about these things,
let's get to it. Let's get to the thing that
everybody wanted to talk about last year when it came
to the rankings. Let's get to talking about the college
Football Playoff, the uh the Power Index, the ESPN's FPI,

(41:56):
which I have laughed at at times, but since people
want to get the strength strength to schedule, we will
go there as well. Okay, so here is what we got.
We have FPI Ohio State one, Indiana, Notre Dame, Oregon,
Texas Tech. But I thought the damn Now, so now

(42:19):
let's go to the Sagarin rankings. Okay, let's go to
these rankings. Since everybody wants to talk, let me make
them a little bit bigger so everybody can see oh

(42:41):
Man Sagarine rankings. Man, let's go with Ohio State one,
Notre Name two, Indiana, Oregon, Texas Tech, Miami. Damn. Then
we get to Alabama, Georgia, Texas, oh ms back. What
are we doing here? Exactly all the metrics that SEC

(43:04):
people wanted you to consider last year. Now all of
a sudden they don't favor them, and they want to
lean on what their version of strength of schedule is
when the reality is When the reality is is that
strength of schedule is also manipulated by preseason rankings. Can

(43:28):
anybody understand that? Can anybody hear me? And I will
prove that point to you as well, because strength of
schedule is impacted in a significant way by preseason rankings.
Let's go back to the preseason rankings for twenty twenty

(43:50):
for twenty twenty five, Okay, here we go. We got
Texas won, so anybody that played Texas has a strong
schedule early in the season. Penn State two, Clemson, same thing.
Then let's look at the teams that aren't even in
the top twenty five anymore. Clemson gone, Penn State gone,

(44:13):
nowhere to be found, LSU gone, but some kind of way,
that's still a good win. Even though they fired their hair.
They're in the same situation Penn State is in. They're
a talented roster that keeps fighting. They can keep it
close sometimes and beat some bad teams, but they still
stink this year. Arizona State's out of the top twenty five. Injured,
Illinois out, South Carolina gone, nowhere to be found as

(44:39):
Shane Shane Beemer's seat is a volcano ready to rupt
right now. SMU gone, Kansas State gone, Iowa State gone,
Tennessee gone, Boise State gone. You don't think that that
impacts the rankings. Now, let's just jump on over Week four.

(45:00):
Let's see o Penn State still there. LSU's number three
in the country, and you got SEC fans still talking
about some oh man, we had a top ten win
against LSU. It ain't no damn top ten win. Stop it,
stop it, stop it, stop it. What are we doing here? Auburn.

(45:21):
Auburn was rking number twenty two. The audacity James Madison
would would be b y U, I think d This
is why my solution for college football is very simple,
very simple. I know Josh Pate wants to be commissioner.

(45:41):
He might get the first commissioner job. But then but
then I'll be I'll be I'll be waiting, waiting in
the wings to take into any even better job. Because
here is the thing, first thing that I am doing.
If I am college football commissioner, there will be on
day one, there will be zero zilch nadd There will

(46:06):
be no game scheduled, zero more than twelve months in advance, none,
none at all. And then you know what I'm doing.
We are going to play. If you are the team
that won the national championship, you come back the next year,
you play a first play schedule. All the way down.
We're ranking everybody all the way to one thirty six

(46:30):
number the first group of teams that's gonna be a
first play schedule, so then you gotta play harder teams.
Then I'm NFL schedule modeling this thing. That is the
only fair way to do it. Everybody is gonna play
ten power four games everybody. There will be no you

(46:53):
can play one FCS team and you can play a
group of five, a group of six team. That's it.
There will be uniformity in scheduling because there needs to
be more parody. So the ACC, Big Ten, Big twelve,
and SEC, they will all play crossover games based upon

(47:15):
where you finished in the standings. And I'm probably going
down to eight cut so I'm going down to eight
conference games crossover games, and then we're gonna roll from
from there. And then you know what, You're gonna have
way more head to heads, way more data points to crossover.

(47:39):
And no, I'm not letting Alabama play you know, Rutgers
unless they finished last or they finish first. It's not happening.
I'm going to create great games week in and week out.
That's the first thing that we're gonna do. George, what
do you think about a sixteen team playoff with two

(48:00):
u aqs for the power for one AQ for each
of the G five G six conference champion, and two
at large spots. Okay, so the issue with that is,
and here is where my frustration lies, with the powers
that be in college football, with Tony Patiti, Greg Sanki,

(48:24):
your Mark, all of them. There is a power grab
at the top. There's a consolidation of power. Greg Sanki
is only going to do what is best for the SEC.
Tony Patiti's gonna do what's best for the Big Ten.
Your Mark's gonna do what's best for his conference, like
everybody's gonna do what's best for them. Do you know who?
Nobody is doing the best thing for for college football?

(48:45):
And you guys make sure that you guys swipe up
like subscribe, get notifications. I appreciate you guys being here.
This is one of the fastest growing YouTube channels in
college football and it is because of you guys. Were
well passed twenty five thousand on the way to fifty thousand.
You guys sharing is the reason why, and I thank you.
We got great things coming all right. So so okay,

(49:09):
so let's go back to that sixteen team playoff thing. Okay,
so you got all those conference commissioners, they're only gonna
do what's best for them. There is no way in
hell that you're gonna have the SEC who believes that
they are the best conference in all of college football,
and the Big Ten, who believes that are best conference

(49:30):
in all of power football and they've won the most
national championships, that they are gonna then say yes, we're
okay getting the same amount of bids as the ACC
same amount of bids as the Big Twelve. And no,
they're never gonna agree to that. And this is why,

(49:50):
on my day one, if we get these scheduling models,
it is going to be an easy, easy case, easy case.
So so here's here's the question. And and somebody just
put in the chat Miami not in is insane major bias.
FSU was screwed when they were undefeated and didn't get in. Okay,

(50:13):
So my question is this, Let let let me put
it up. Who who people? Can you put Miami in over?
Who are you gonna put Miami in over Notre Dame
that's possible, but over BYU? Why why b yu's only

(50:39):
loss was to Texas Tech? That's it? So where are
you gonna put Miami? You can't put them over Oklahoma?
And well, actually I would throw Honestly, if I had
it my way, I would punt Oklahoma out of the
College Football playoffs. That's what I would. But how can
you punt them out when they just recently beat out

(50:59):
lie Alabama? That's the that's the gotcha, gotcha? And I
just told you the committee is protecting Alabama right now.
That's why they flip flopped Alabama and and Notre Dame
because in case B, why you beat Texas Tech? They
do not want Alabama to get pushed out of the playoffs.

(51:21):
Notre Dame better pray. They better pray that Texas Tech
wins because if they don't, it's gonna be. But they
are getting left out of the College Football playoffs. You
can write it down, you can book it. That is
the one hundred guant guaranteed Bama lost the FSU B.
Why you barely wins Miami? Okay? All right, so oh

(51:45):
the okay, So let's go to I wanted to talk
about another thing to today because I told you guys
about the buys, how the bys are not beneficial two teams.
But I want to go back for a second to
what is happening to the ACC, because if the ACC

(52:05):
gets left out of the college football playoff, my god,
all hell is going to break loose. You won't even
be able to feel the season. And if you do
not understand, I will explain it to you super quick.
The two teams that are playing in the ACC Championship
number seventeen Virginia versus unranked Duke, who's seven and five.

(52:30):
They got in with tye breakers. They went six and
two in the conference tie breakers. They're unranked, while you
have three group of five teams that are ranked. Tulane
is playing against North Texas in the conference championship. James
Madison is in a totally different conference. So remember the
highest ranked of the high the five highest ranked conference

(52:55):
champions get buys. There are Big ten, Big twelve SEC
ACC with Virginia, and then you have the American and
then the Sun Belt, all of them represented. And if

(53:17):
Virginia gets beat by Duke, there is no way that
they jump over two lane. So two lane winning, so
at best you're gonna have If Duke wins, at best,
they're gonna be playing. They're gonna be in the twelveth
spot and let me let let me put it up
the way in case you don't understand. So the conference

(53:41):
champion number five, that would be the SEC, I'm sorry,
the ACC. If Duke wins and then James Madison loses
and number eleven would then be two Lane or North Texas.
That is wild and so that's how that works. Now.

(54:05):
I want to get back for a second to Texas fans.
Can anybody am I the only person has no sympathy
for Texas and I think it is unbecoming. I think
it is lame. I think it is beneath Steve Sarkisian,
who has been out here lobbying like a damn politician
running for election for the governor of the state or

(54:29):
president of the United States. Out here lobbying and crime. Well,
well maybe we should change our schedule. This is tough.
And yes, I got the same energy for USC trying
to take Notre Dame off their schedule their biggest rival,
because that's weak as hell. I got the same energy

(54:51):
for four Team for Indiana who took power for teams
off their schedule to make their schedule easier, and their
head Kurt Signetti, who I like. But remember, just because
I like, you don't mean, I won't tell the truth.
You schedule poorly, and Kirby Smart just said it the best.

(55:13):
You run from hard, you find more hard. It looks easier.
You're gonna run in the more hard because you ain't
gonna be ready and you're gonna mess around and lose
some football games that you're supposed to. No, my stance
is not that you should schedule tough teams and not
reward them. Texas is getting credit for losing to Ohio State.

(55:38):
They are using a a a a convenient circular argument.
The only thing that they want to focus on. This
is no different than what politicians do. They want to
they wanna they're building up a straw man. This is
a straw man fallacy. They are building up the straw
man of oh If you're rewarded for scheduling tough non

(56:02):
conference games and we won't do it no more. They're
being rewarded. Nobody has played Ohio State that tough, so
that leads you to believe. And they outgained Ohio State,
so now you're like, damn, this actually might be a
really good football team. They lost to Florida. Pretty much
everybody in front of them had beaten Florida and they

(56:27):
just recently got the you know what kicked out of
them by Georgia by twenty five. Had they lost that
Georgia game by three points five points, they probably would
be in a different position right now. But you lost
to Florida and you just recently got kicked in the

(56:48):
teeth by Georgia. Come on, man, that's the reason why.
And here's a does a ten and two team with
the Texas that with the with the Florida lost, No,
they are going do you know who's a prime example

(57:09):
of that. Alabama is a prime example of that. Alabama
got an ugly loss to Florida State ugly and you
see where they're sitting at number nine. So so Texas,
you would be right on the cusp, right where you
are right now, even at ten and two, where would

(57:29):
they be at tennant? They wouldn't be sitting in front
of anybody else. It's that Florida loss that is weighing
them down and getting dump trucked by Georgia. Stop blaming
it on the on the Ohio state thing, and also
take some responsibility. You lost to Florida. That is going

(57:51):
to ding you the same way that the Florida State
lost is ding in Alabama. Alabama ain't lost by twenty
five points to nobody. If they had, they'd be behind
the BYU right now. Jesus Man, I can't take the

(58:12):
incessant crime. You. Bad things happen to good people in sports.
Everybody can't make the playoff. This is not a charity event, people,
This is not a charity event. No, Bama does not
get a guaranteed spot. They do not get a bear.

(58:33):
They do not get a guaranteed spot at all in
the culture. If Georgia beats them up, if Georgia beats
them by three touchdowns in the in the SEC Championship,
Alabama's getting out. You can bank on that they're gonna
drop behind Notre Dame and they're gonna be like, nah
nah nah nah na, Pa, you you are not ready.

(58:56):
You are not ready for the big leagues this season.
And that's okay. And that's okay. The last thing I
want to bring up before we get up out of
here is it's something that I have been debating about

(59:16):
for a while, is we have obviously we have the
you know, we have teams that are losing things, and
all of these coaches and everything else, and I am
when I'm watching television. It is frustrating for me, and

(59:38):
I know it's frustrating for you guys when there is
hypocrisy running rampant, when it feels like there is an
agenda to push a narrative, and you're like, that doesn't
make any sense. You got Lane Kiffen saying I took
la essentially saying I took LSU's job, blaming it on

(01:00:00):
Pete Carroll and then blaming it on Nick Saban as
the reason why he took the job. That ain't why
he took the job. He took the job before it
because he wanted to. And then he's sitting up here
lying to us, I don't even know how much I make.
Shut up laying you're a liar for that, for that,
you know how much everybody under this damn everybody in

(01:00:21):
the chat right now knows how much, approximately within a
million dollars, how much Laye Kipping is making, and how
much his contract is worth. We all know. So don't
sit up here and play dumb to us. There's nothing
more frustrating than when somebody's trying to make you feel stupid.
And one of the last things somebody said, what about

(01:00:46):
restruction the whole FBS to forty teams. Nah, nah, I
like the sixty eight teams, and I like the ability
for like, if I were in charge, we would be
doing some sort of European League soccer. There will be relegation,
there will be relegation. There will be a path for

(01:01:08):
teams like two Lane, James Madison and everybody else to
get to the big leagues. And if you're at the
bottom of the big leagues, if you have a two
to ten season, like Florida State and you're one of
the worst teams in the country, oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
you're gonna be in a good group of sixteen. You'll
be going to go play against uh, you know, Oregon State,

(01:01:30):
in Washington State and Utah State. You'll you'll be going
to go play against the some Belt team. You'll be
going to go play against against them. Get get your
weight up, and then that will give those teams a
path to be able to establish, to grow, and to
build and to be one of the top teams. And
that is exactly why uneven revenue sharing amongst these conferences

(01:01:53):
is crazy. It is crazy talk. It is terrible for
the conferences terrible for college football. For Ohio State to
get this much, Rutgers to get that much, I don't
care how much TV time they get any of that.
Figure out it with Jersey sales or you know, some
other metric. The reason why is because the thing that

(01:02:16):
makes the NFL so great. The Dallas Cowboys make the
most money in the NFL. They ain't even close. However,
a small market team like Jacksonville they can beat the Cowboys.
They can win the Super Bowl just as easy as
the Cowboys can. And parody is the thing that drives interest.

(01:02:38):
Parody is the thing that drives you know, viewership and
everything else. And I love it. I love every single
thing about it. And college football needs to adopt that.
Instead of continuing to separate the haves and have nots,
there needs to be a squishing of it. And that
logo and that helmet behind me that I played in

(01:03:03):
that means that sometimes Oregon's gonna suck and would and
would that be good for my personal No? But you
know what it is good for. It's good for college football.
And I'm here for college football. College football goes first.
And the last thing that I want to ask you guys,
and point out what in God's name, What in God's

(01:03:30):
name is going on over there at Penn State. Penn
State still does not have a head coach. Yet, they
do not have a head coach. They were one of
the first teams to fire their coach in James Franklin.
They had a two month head start. They just got

(01:03:56):
turned down by Kalini Sataki, who's staying at BYU Witch.
I love, thank you, your poll LDS or Mormon, your
whole family's there, build something there. Now Penn State is
sitting in the eleventh hour. Signing day is tomorrow. Their

(01:04:17):
whole class is basically falling apart. Their recruiting class has
basically fall apart. I believe now either one of two
things is true, either pack Craft or athletic director. Well, actually,

(01:04:38):
I believe either one of three things is true. Either
number one, their athletic director, pac Craft is one hundred
percent incompetent and needs to be fired immediately. I don't
think that that's it. You had Todd mcshae today on
a podcast, say on the Ringer with the Ringer Dude,

(01:05:04):
and he said that Jimmy Sexton, who is the most
powerful agent in college football, that he is making sure
that Penn State, because they fired James Franklin, that they
get screwed in this head coaching search situation. Because remember,
Jimmy Sexton has about eighty eighty five percent of the

(01:05:26):
top coaches in college football. He believes he said that
he's heard that Jimmy Sexton is intentionally doing this to
Penn State. That would be that honestly, that would mean
that Jimmy Sexton needs to be stopped because this is

(01:05:49):
that that would make him like the Godfather. And as
Kanye would say, no man who know one man should
have all that power. Oh Kanye, Now I rolled with
old Kanye, not new Kanye. So so don't come come,
come and meet with that. So or the third option

(01:06:12):
for Penn State is their head coach is playing in
the conference championship this weekend and it could be Kaylin
de boor because we heard rumors about that. So either
Jimmy Sexton is screwing them over Pat Kraft athletic director isn'tcompetent.

(01:06:32):
Or the third option is is that their is that
their head coach is sitting there in a in a
spot that he can't get out of right right now.
So which one do you guys think it is m oh,

(01:06:56):
we got one for the third option. And the last
thing I will tell y'all, Lane Kiffin will not win
a championship at ole Miss. I'm sorry at at La.
He damn strang and win win one of Old Miss,
but he ain't gonna win one of at LSU. Tell
you run from hard, you get more hard complains about

(01:07:17):
playing in the SEC Championship and everything else. But you guys, though, listen,
oh and so so so I did want to cover
this for Oregon fans because Oregon lost their offensive coordinator,
will Stein going to Kentucky. I have a great interview
I did with will Stein this year. I'll get him
on again in a few weeks once he gets settled

(01:07:38):
in Oregon is settled, I'll get him on again. But
in Kentucky Blues. So I got a really good interview
with him. So you know what what Kentucky is getting.
It's here on the channel, just search it. And then
Tash Lupoy, who is Oregon's defensive coordinator, who's going to
cal So Dan lam now has a coaching tree and

(01:08:01):
he has to replace both coordinators. Now, Dan Lanning did
a great job of replacing Kenny Dillingham with Will Stein,
and somebody asked me to today, is Oregon going to be? Okay?
Coaches are going to be tripping over themselves to be

(01:08:23):
Oregon's defensive coordinator and offensive coordinator, tripping over them themselves
like they're gonna be. They're texting Dan. They've been texting
and calling Dan Lanning for weeks. And the reason why
is because you got a good roster, You're gonna be winning,
winning breeds opportunities. You do a good job winning opportunities.
And on another note, so Dan Lanny has hired well,

(01:08:47):
So I believe that they were there will be fine.
Do I believe that that will impact Dante more coming
back next year? It could, but if he likes the
the higher they will be just just FI and if
he trusts Dan, And truthfully, I don't think he needs
to go in the draft anyway. Oh, Teffer should come
back for a year as OC. No, no, no no.

(01:09:10):
I love coach t but he's been having some help
stuff and I wish him well, don't want him nowhere
near no college football field right right now. But then
the question, though, is too, why is Brian Hartline not
gotten a job? Penn State. If all of those things
are true, if pat Craft is if the answer is

(01:09:34):
pat Craft is incompetent, they may end up with the
coach that they should have had all along, either Brian
Hartline or Fran Brown. And I know that Syracuse sucks
right now, but Fran Brown would do great with that
Penn State logo and them players, because whenever he's had
players and a good team, his team is done well.

(01:09:57):
Quarterback get hurt, other players get hurt. The part Penn
State interested in Brian Dable, that would be a horrendous idea.
Do not hire a college pro coaches who aren't like
and I know that Brian Dable had been in Alabama,

(01:10:18):
but I'm passing on that. Y'all, watch John Gruten, possibly
the South Florida. South Florida's trying to trying to get
John John Gruten, So watch watch that. Bring back Scott
Frost or Mark help Man. Stop it. Listen. If you're
an Oregon fan, I don't want Scott Frost nowhere near

(01:10:39):
the university. The only thing I'm doing with a with
a old with Scott Frost is tying him up in
it and putting him in a knot he can't come
back to Oregon. This is the same man that that
said you can't recruit top classes to to Oregon. This
is why I don't want to be here. That's why
I'm leaving. He ran from hard at South Florida, ran

(01:11:00):
to Nebraska, and then ran from Nebraska back to Central
well not South Florida, SI, Central Florida, ran ran back
and got kicked in the teeth again. So no, no
on hell Friach, no on Frost. But you guys, though,
thank you guys for joining me today. I appreciate your time,
I appreciate your energy. Make sure that you guys like,
share and subscribe, because you guys have absolutely made this

(01:11:23):
channel special. We got big things popping because of you guys,
and I am going to replect repay it this off season.
If you thought the off season was good last year
with the with the Dabbo Sweeney, Dan Lanning, Kenny dilly
Ham and the rest of the crew always going up
and notch again, it's going up a notch again because

(01:11:45):
we for shore getting into the sec with with with
will Stein. We're going over to cow We're going all
over the place. It is gonna be a movie out
in this joint for y'all man, because y'all keep showing
it showing up. And for anybody who doesn't know, I'll
give you guys a quick story. I'm writing a book

(01:12:07):
called stutter Box. Okay. I was a kid who stuttered
so bad when I was young, and that's what everybody
called me, was stutter box, and I did not believe.
So I wanted to be three things when I grew up.
I wanted to be a professional athlete. I wanted to
be in business, and then I wanted to be in entertainment. Now.
The first one my sixth grade teacher. She asked me, George,

(01:12:28):
what do you want to be when you grow up?
I said, I want to be a professional athlete. She said,
do you know what the chance of being a professional
athlete are? I said, yeah, sure, they're less than one
in a million. She said, don't you think you need
to choose to be something else? I said no. So
then I go get drafted in O three, play in Jacksonville,
have a cup of coffee in New York, then play
in Vegas in the UFL and then then I get

(01:12:49):
in business. Open a cupcake shot with the family. Oh,
if you have not seen it, I'm on an episode
of Cupcake Wars season five at episode one the girl
Scouts one hundredth year anniversary. So you can check it out.
It's on Netflix, I believe episode one, season season five,
you'll see me with Violet's cakes. And so I've owned businesses,

(01:13:15):
colthing stores, all sortstuff, bought and sold stuff. And then
I wanted to be an entertainment but I stuttered really
really badly. And then I was like, God, if you
put this on my heart to do, why would you
give me this affliction? And so this is what the
book is about, is about overcoming things in life and
how what's for you is for you and the thing

(01:13:36):
that you think is your biggest detriment, which I thought
was my voice, turned out people like my voice apparently
who knew. And then I've been on have my own
radio show for the last four years until last January,
I hosted my own solo radio show on Mad Dog

(01:13:57):
three hours a day, but at first it was four
hours a day day and then I quit my job
in January to do this one hundred percent full time.
I went out on a limb. I prayed about it.
It was stressful for me and my family, for everybody
but I knew that this was what I was supposed
to be doing, and you guys absolutely showed up and

(01:14:20):
you guys have proven it and I appreciate it. But
tomorrow I will be on well maybe maybe maybe maybe
because but there, I will be doing a video in
the morning that'll come out tomorrow about will Stein and
where Oregon goes from here. But I am closing up

(01:14:44):
shop tomorrow, the Sect the me time tomorrow, and so
I'm hoping that I can sit on the buns for
a little bit tomorrow and give you guys a national
Signing Day thing. But if not, I'll be back on Thursday.
Even if I got to sit on one of them, damn,
what one of them? When women be sitting sitting on

(01:15:06):
when they when they get bbls, I might have to
sit on one of them. But you know what, I'll
be here because y'all want me here and I appreciate it.
All right, y'all, peace out, Catch you guys later.
