Speaker 3 (00:52):
So, speaking of.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Back in the game college football playoff scenarios, Man, I
don't know if anything changes this week, Shane.

Speaker 4 (00:59):
I do put one thing out just because my brother
won't stop texting me about it. So when it comes
to the SEC just in the top twelve. So for
those that remember, like the top twelve and we have
to I feel like we have to say this every
single Saturday or every single Sunday. Sorry, the top twelve
rankings does not indicate the twelve teams that are gonna
get into the College Well playoff. You get the conference champions,
you get the at large, you like are gonna get

(01:20):
Notre Dame, then you, and then you have everybody else.
I'm tired of explaining that, by the way.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
But you're gonna have to explain it between now until the.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
Bracket will fill out, because like, let's just say hypathetically, right, Okay,
So let's just say hypathetically that Texas does lose to
A and M and MS in the SEC championship game. Like,
let's just assume that there's no upsets right in the
top twelve to fifteen teams. It's it's just as expected.
Bama beats Auburn, OHU beats LSU, Like, there's no there's
no surprises there. Right, That's when things get tricky but

(01:49):
also a little a little more predictable. And I think
the committee would rather do that because they have an
idea of where things are week by week, So look
at it.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
We'll look at a team like like Oklahoma.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
To me, if Oklahoma beats LSU, you there in like,
I don't consider LSU quality opponent.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
But I'm seven and four.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
You know I was gonna say it was that right now,
and you talked about it last segment.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
They have the most wins amongst current top twenty five teams.
My textaker Red Raiders have three, but they're like, it's
probably gonna go down.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
To two because Houston loss. So it's gonna go back. Well, no, Arizona.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
Remember it's time stamped.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
It is time stamped.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Yeah, the resume is timestamp.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Okay, well, then they would have they would have those wins.
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
But look at a team like Alabama, right so Alabama's
two losses Oklahoma quality loss, and then Florida State. At
the time, people thought quality loss because Florida State felt
like they were turning things around. Right now they're five
and six terrible. It looks like a bad loss. It's
the same thing from Florida for Texas. In Florida, that's
a bad loss. We talked about like you look at
quality wins, you look at bad losses. You also look

(02:45):
at like those wins that why did you win by
so low?

Speaker 1 (02:49):
You know, like, why did you struggle with this team?
Why did Texas struggle with Kentucky? Something like that.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
But you're also going to say, well, they were on
the road, it was it night.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Yeah, there's all there's a lot.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Of excuses that And I don't know if their excuses
or not, because I think at the at the end
of the day, a win's a win. But I mean,
Kentucky got blown out by Vanderbilt last night, you know.
I mean when you look at that, you're like, oh,
whoa Vanderbilt. They lost to Texas and they took You
can play like the rain Man scenarios of college football playoffs,
but it does come down to the you know, the resume.

(03:21):
It's like Notre Dame. Can we argue some losses because
A and M. We're now figuring out that was a
quality loss, Yeah, for sure, But what about Miami?

Speaker 3 (03:31):
Is that a quality loss?

Speaker 1 (03:32):
I think it's still quality loss.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Even though Miami's had a loss to Louisville and a
loss to SMU and Well.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
The thing is, though, is that Miami is still a
rank Miami.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Miami finally won a game outside the state of Florida yesterday.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
But that but that works against Miami's favorite, not I
guess Not a Dame's favorite, because right now, not right now,
in the resume, it looks at Notre Dame just lost
to two ranked teams. You're right, A and m is
by far their best quality loss, and that was only
by one point, right, I think it was like a
one point loss, and then the lost to Miami by three,
so like they're really five points away from being undefeated.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
That's how they're gonna look at that sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
But at the same time, you're really looking at Miami
as the ACC because that's where they have them plugged
in this in this bracket. Right, Is that fair? Because
what is SMU saying.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
SMU is probably saying.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
They're saying, hello, well.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
SMU also lost a Baylor.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
Yeah, but hello, we beat Miami. Yeah uh hello.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
That's why I think.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
They're not Even if I went out and Virginia wins out,
we're not talking Miami in North Carolina at the ACC
championship game. We're talking SMU in Virginia.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
It was talking North Carolina.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
No, No, that's where it's played, is in Charlotte Charlotte.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
But when we're in North Carolina, we're talking SMU Virginia,
we don't have Miami there. And at the beginning of
the season, let's be very clear here, when Miami knocked
off Notre Dame, Yeah, Miami's going to the freaking college
football playoff over instant overreaction. Beck is the guy, he's
the heisman, YadA, YadA, YadA. Well, come to find out
goes in there on a Friday night and knocks them down.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
And then not only that, you leave the state of
Florida and come to the Great State of Texas.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
And you lose to the s MU Mustangs who lost
to Baylor by.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
The way, right they did lose. Yeah, now that should
come back win too.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
But this is what it let the madness begin.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Shane.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
So I think that if we're talking playoff rankings, I
wouldn't move the top eight.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Well, you and I are probably can disagree about nine
through twelve.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
But if we're talking about just plaoff rankings, right, top eight,
Ohio State, Indiana A, and m Texas sorry, Georgia, Texas,
tech Ole, miss Oregon OU, those don't change.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Right, No, they don't, Okay, the.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Nine through twelve as of right now. This is the rankings.
But I think we're gonna fit it. We're gonna fill
it in with our a CC champion. We're gonna fill
with our at large and then our two other ones. Okay,
So I'll give mine first because I'm curious to see what
you think. So you throw Notre Dame in there, they're
probably gonna get it. I'm just you just have to
kind of deal with that at that point.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
Yeah, it's fine, it's Notre Dame.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Right, Okay.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
Then I'll throw the AEC champion in there right now,
that's Virginia Virginia.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Now it technically would have the tiebreaker lead.

Speaker 4 (06:02):
In the ACC, which is amazing that Virginia was like,
they're like five and seven last year.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
But whatever, Yeah, I would let that play out because
obviously we got to have the championship game.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
But I'm saying hypothetically right now, if the playoffs from
the day, Okay, I don't think disagree, but I'm okay,
so because ansme knows.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
What it takes to get into the college football Playoff
because it's been that's fair.

Speaker 4 (06:20):
Okay, So ACC champion and then you have probably another
SEC team or BYU Utah because right now b Yu
Utah are both like at twelve eleven, it's gonna come
down to between Bama b YU and Utah plat for
that last spot, assuming everybody wins out. I what hurts
Bama in this case is not just the Florida State loss.

(06:41):
It's the fact that they lost so late in the
season a lot of times that those can hold wait higher.
I think they might put b Yu ahead of them,
and then we have the group and then we have
the group of five. Right now it's looking like North
Texas is going to get that bid. And I mean
I wouldn't hate because right now, like the score a
lot of points, Man mester Maker. Right now, I think
like leading the nation and passing yards per game. It's

(07:02):
a fun time to watch. If you haven't watched North Texas, they're.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
A fun team.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Ask them.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
They fly for you know what they play fun team.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
They play like two thousands Texas tech. Yep. They love
they love to air that.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
You know their coaches.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
So that would there.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
So that would be how the Colletural Playoff would probably
end up if for were today. M hm, so how
like so I would probably be YU in ahead of
Bama just because of the quality of losses.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
I don't think the college football gods are going to
let that.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Happen, you know.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
I think that Bama some resumes are like the employees
that have been there for years and years and every
year you give them a pay raise. And then you
have the other employees, such as by U s Mus
that are just trying to shine every every day.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Sure, and as as soon as they.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Don't throw the trash away in the office, they're downgraded.
Bama I think should be not even in this conversation.
And the reason for that being is Florida State. Okay, yes,
let's be very clear here.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Your loss to O you.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Yeah, that's the Crimson and Cream that owns you. I
gets that's a quality loss at home, and.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
It was a close game too.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
But and then for people to tell me that, oh
you's done, hold on, I'm gonna tell you that Britain
Bennables should be coach.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Of the Year. No, I would say Joe maguire.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
And the reason I say that is because, oh you,
if they went out survived the gauntlet that everybody said
they were going to loose.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Hold On, I said, it wasn't that big of a gauntlet.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
No, we can say that it wasn't that big or
not or whatever, But I mean, when you listen to
the national media, we were not supposed to win in Tennessee,
and then we were supposed to lick our chops for
a week and discuss and then go down to Alabama.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Let me ask you a question, because I'm curious about this.

Speaker 4 (08:48):
Do you think they're gonna look at the OU Texas
game differently knowing that Materia was not healthy and that
in the last couple of weeks he has similarly gotten
healthier and healthy in his arm looks a little better,
And like, are they going to take that in consideration?
Because remember back in two thousand, back in two thousand
and eight, oh you lost to Texas by ten, but
oh you got the BCS bid.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah, so a lot of times I wonder I did
because of you guys. Thank you? Well yeah, I mean, yeah,
y'all smoked us. But like I'm what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
Is is that when you guys smoke Texas, well, I mean.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, we did.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
But the thing is that in that in this case though,
like so for me, it's not just the fact that
the lost of Florida State. They got destroyed by Florida
stated that fourteen point loss was not indicative because I
watched it was not indicative.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
It was over.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
They really would that all those points they scored were like,
we're desperation points because you might think differently. I think
desperation points still factor to the score, but they look
different than if it was consistent across the entire game.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
If I look at a team like.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
Let's just let's just throw out their Utah, right, Utah
got beat bad at home by Tech and they also
lost to BYU, So right now, Utah needs teams to lose.
They are not a team that if that, if the
top fourteen teams all won that I would say they
should get a bid. They unfortunately need some help b YU.
I don't think needs help compared to someone like Alabama.

(10:04):
That's why I would put them in in a in
a twelve and a twelve team race.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Oh, I mean, it's it's a very interesting scenario.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
You know, it's even bigger scenario.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
So what if hypothetically it comes out that Lane Kiffin
is going to LSU. Right before the Egg Bowl, they
find out Ole Miss loses Mississippi State, they fall to
ten and two. What happens to Ole miss right, because
that is a bad loss? Nine and then they're gonna
be like, Oh, the players ain't gonna they're not gonna
play for it.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
The coast that's not gonna be there. Let's just get
them out of there, right, Well.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
They're gonna just transfer and go to LSU.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
They're going to go full Marshal.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Remember when Marshall had all those transfers to leave right
for the bowl game, they had hopped out of the
bowl game.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yep, No, And I think that we'll see that, and
I think, uh, on the other side of this break,
we should discuss some Bowl projections as well.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
I think the city of San Antonio. I think that
there's some other Bowl projections.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
But I also want to discuss this Lane Kiffin find
Rose ceremony that's gonna happen November twenty ninth.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
Apparently, well we can, but it's got to be then
segment after that, because you know what's coming out next, Oh,
the Sounds of Saturday.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
That sounds a Saturday.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
So coming up next, we've got the Sounds of Saturday
