Speaker 1: All Star Toyota presents Off the Bench with Jacob Hester
and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go where the.
Speaker 1: Plays get broken down and science gets denied. Off the
Bench Hour two of Off the Bench Live from the
Raising Kine Studio.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in o t b our number two.
Speaker 2: LS.
Speaker 3: You made some coaching moves yesterday bringing in some new
staff members. You can find all the information, of course,
on our website, Louisiana Sports dot Net, which you see
let him do the band of white del ooh right
there behind our heads if you can see that behind
Matt's ed. All right, I'm gonna throw it to Tata
to give you an update on the staff moves that
ELS you made.
Speaker 4: Yeah, despite the fact that I'm a big Brad Davis fan,
LSU could potentially have a new offensive line coach. Well,
we'll see where he is, but Eric Wolford has joined
Lane Kiffin's staff. Eric Wolford has worked exclusively on the
offensive line since nineteen ninety seven, and he's been in
the SEC for nine years now. He was the O
line coach for Kentucky the past two seasons. Before that,
he was Saban's O line coach. Obama his last two years.
He was in South Carolina from seventeen to twenty. I mean,
this guy's been around the offensive line, he's been around
the SEC. He's a guy that I mean that that's
somebody that can help you immediately.
Speaker 5: He has a ton of experience.
Speaker 4: Also, Dwike Wilson, he's been brought on as a director
of recruiting. He served this role under Lane Kiffin at
Ole Miss. He comes over as well, so that's, you know,
shadows staff analyst if you will, not an on field
coaching position, but director of recruiting. But Eric Wolford will
see what happens with him. But big time name, a
lot of experience, a lot of SEC experience as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Ole Miss and Lane Kiffen played against Kentucky
right over the last couple of years when he was there,
so certainly they've got an up close look at what
he can do with the offensive line. And that is
one thing that has to be fixed. You got to
get fixed on the offensive line this upcoming season. It
was held together with duc tape and super glue, and
that might be putting it nicely. I mean I can
remember doing the start lineups on the broadcast and mean
you're talking back and forth.
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, I guess they'll move.
Speaker 3: This guy here, they'll move that guy there, and maybe
that guy can hold together.
Speaker 2: It was bad. It was bad.
Speaker 3: I think there's talent there, but you got to get
the most out of that talent. You got to develop
some real NFL offensive lineman. I know you just lost
a crew that had four guys drafted. It's the obvious
statement there. I understand that. But if you want to compete,
you're in and you're out in the SEC. That next wave,
whatever it is, it has to look completely different than
what that next wave just look like for LSU, Matt.
You have to run the football in the Southeastern Conference.
You cannot win the SEC by trying to throw the football.
You can't go twenty straight plays in a game against
Western Kentucky, who's one hundred and eighth in rush defense,
and not hand it off to the running back one time,
like those things can't happen. That is the position group
that I cannot wait to watch in spring football in
summer camp because it needs to go up by a lot.
Speaker 6: The key thing you said there when you were talking
about the current offensive line is I think that there's
talent there. When you go through an entire season and
you don't know, means there's a bad scheme. Yeah, so
there was bad. What they were being asked to do
was not right because we went that there is talent,
but we don't know, which is a problem. I'm sure
there's guys. I'm sure there's teams all over the country
that did a lot more with a lot less than
what with the LSU Fighting Tigers did with their offensive line.
And it is an absolute just travesty of what this
offense was this year. So yeah, I think that you
bring in a new system, you bring in new uh coaching,
you bring in you bring in different stuff to the
same guys, but then you have to supplement too. I
think if you're LSU team and you're an LU coach
and you're hitting the transfer portal and you look for
offensive lineman and you say, hey, where I issue. This
is the three initials on our on our chest here,
this is our logo, and this is what we're going
to do. This is coming up here and you can
come in and play immediately. That you could come in
right now and be our starting you know, whatever left
eg or left guard center, whatever it is. And I
think there's a really good selling point there in the
transfer portal for this coaching staff. Of course you want
to I think we signed an offensive lineman yesterday. You
want to get guys out of high school too, But
you don't want to be reliant on a true freshman
offensive lineman if you don't have to be right. So
that's uh, yeah, it's to put it lightly that they
were putting in an unfair spot, and so like that's
what you want to like at the end of the season.
You want to have answers on all your guys, at
least an idea of what the answer is.
Speaker 2: What you said was perfect.
Speaker 6: I think they are talented, but we don't know because
what they were being asked to do not beneficial to
who they could be or what they could be, or
you answering the question of like what are they You
don't run power one time all year. You don't run
a normal running game until you tried something halfway past
halfway through the season.
Speaker 2: Yeah, when.
Speaker 6: When Brian Kelly got fired. Yeah, they came out and
they tried to do some things. They lined up with
the full back. They but you're like, if you hadn't
practiced that stuff. You can't just going to throw it
in in the midweek. Like the foundation. We've said it
a billion times, like the foundation and the bones of
this offense are just just flawed.
Speaker 2: So we don't know what the offensive line was.
Speaker 6: But like, look at the whole offense, it's hard to
find any bright spots on you look at Harlem Perry,
there's some good things there, trade as he did some
great things, and but like.
Speaker 2: Caden Duram finished the season strong, yeah he did.
Speaker 6: Like you can pick out the individual performances and games
and things that were great, but like from the beginning
to the end, what were the bright spots on the offense?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 6: I know there's talent there. I think there's talent in
other places, but you don't know.
Speaker 3: Uh, taking a look because Matt mentioned it quickly there
And if you've listened to this show at all any
period during the football season, we probably said it once
a show. LSU football didn't run a single power all
season long. Ye can't believe that the joke that we
always use, you couldn't go a series when we played
without running at least one power. Okay, times have changed, offensively,
you're not going to run as many. Let me give
you a breakdown of what Old Miss ran a year ago.
Speaker 2: Before you do that.
Speaker 6: I just want to say that any if like you're
in like the Catholic school system and your child plays
in fifth grade, he runs Power.
Speaker 2: One.
Speaker 3: Child, Yeah, they run zone. They probably run power maybe
stretched just without question. Yeah, the sunset acres Indians. Back
in nineteen eighty nine, we ran powers.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yep, through the ball three times a game, ran
Power three. Maybe that's explosive back then, no doubt, well done,
that dropped tighten dump.
Speaker 3: What did Ole Miss look like running the football this year? Well,
they had four hundred and sixty four run plays outside
zone nine percent of the time, inside zone thirty one
percent of the time, a man's scheme, maybe probably some
duo twenty five percent of the time. Power thirteen percent
of the time. They ran sixty one of those counter
twelve percent of the time. They ran sixteen draws. They
ran twenty one pool leads. They ran two which are
classified as trick plays. So, as you can tell, there's
diversity in this run game.
Speaker 6: Right, that sounds like a normal running game. It clu
That sounds like a fit.
Speaker 2: It can be done. It has happened before.
Speaker 3: Diversity in a run game, so the defense can't hone
in on what you're doing. The highest percentage year thirty
one percent being inside zone.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 3: I love that there's not a sixty eight percent something.
There's diversity. The best run games in the country. Like
last year when Camp Scattaboy was going off, we looked
at it had diversity in the run game. They ran everything.
Jeremiah Love at Notre Dame tearing it up right now,
diversity in the run game, even like a mod hardy
who like they run outside zone a ton, but there's
still diversity in the run game.
Speaker 6: And when we talk about these really great teams running
the ball, and I'm not even saying great, just these
teams that are have good offenses, productive offenses, and the
diversity in their running game. We're not saying that because
they're the outlier, right, because that's football, Like you run
different plays. You don't run the same pass play over
and over. You're ls she kind of do, but you
don't usually run pass like so we're like LSU's the outlier.
Here is what we're trying to explain to y'all. Like
the Old miss and the the Notre Dames and these
all these elite teams running the ball. Like Jake's going
through all these stats, there's diversity, and he's like like
praising that diversity, which is great, but like it's it's normal.
That's true, it's normal, Like that's the normal thing to do.
The minority in the room has been LSU, who has
not been diverse.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did double check just to make sure that
over the last two games, I didn't miss anything. L
s U powers zero. No, you didn't miss it, but
did not miss it. Not a power.
Speaker 6: We did it that one game where we did pull
a guard a couple of times on the counter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were encounter. I think we've talked about it
so much.
Speaker 6: We need to have it, Like we need you to
just break down just the power, just the basic power.
Speaker 2: We'll pull it up.
Speaker 3: I will do that today. Yeah, well today, how far
does this PFF video go back? Does it go back
to two thousand and seven?
Speaker 6: We'll just bring out like a basic x's and a's drawing.
Speaker 3: But I wanted to I want to share like a
visual too, Okay, just full of any LSU film from
two thousand and five, to two thousand sixteen.
Speaker 2: You'll find one quick, very quick. Anyway.
Speaker 3: I wish we could show the difference between counter and
power for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, love that all right, but we'll have fun. It's funny.
Speaker 3: It can't be Tiger film because they didn't run one,
so that would be pretty difficult. We do have, of course,
chef Michael Johnson joining us at nine. We've got Matt McMahon,
LSU head basketball coach at nine thirty. Big win for
LSU basketball last night. They dominated in the first half,
but then in the second half they went cold. Boston
College got hot, but they did a nice job of
forcing overtime, and then in overtime they dominate once again
and they improve to eight to no on the season.
So excited to have coach and McMahon on for the
first time this season. More OTB when we come back
here live from the Raizy Kine studio.

Speaker 1: From the locker room to the airwaves. Gets off the

Speaker 8: Hold a lock, staring out the window.
Speaker 3: Into the deep nothing. Get your forehead rested on it.
Just keep playing it over and over again. What went wrong?
What more could I have done?
Speaker 2: Is it me? Did I do this? It's gotta be
them right, can't be me? Did everything right? I'll kick ass?
I'm me there then, couldn't be me? So? But was it?
I don't know?
Speaker 6: So just sent me a text. I want you all
to be careful out there today. It's rainy, it's cold.
Road conditions are not great. It rains too hard. Put
your hazards on. But we're talking about it's a perfect
day for breakups. So if you're in your late teens,
early twenties, you've been thinking about it, you know you
got to do it. It's not going anywhere. Don't do
it on a pretty day. Do it today. It's not
going anywhere. I'll open your throat right there, go get
it checked out about doctor. But if it's like a
metaphor blump in your throat, just go ahead and do
it today.
Speaker 2: Today's day. So we're playing some breakup music for you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you're listening to us in certain parts
of Mississippi and you feel like you're just never going
to get over the breakup. What chances are you probably aren't,
but you can at least listen to some Google dollars
while you're going through it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yep, I don't do it on a pretty day.
Make sure it's today. You know who I wish college
football break up with forever?
Speaker 2: That list is long and distinguished, sir, Notre Dame.
Speaker 6: The cowards themselves, Notre Dame with playoff committee. Do us
all a favor and fire Notre Dame. They stink, they're cowards.
Join a conference, you have bums? How about this committee
is probably going to be putting them over in the playoffs.
So over Miami, do y'all remember? Do you know that
this year, in this season, Notre Dame in Miami played football?
They did against each other?
Speaker 9: Yeah, Tea Remimi who won Miami Miami?
Speaker 6: That's right. It's really interesting that you say all those things.
Did you know that Notre Dame they played two like
pretty legit opponents this year? Just two there was a
long season, two legit opponents. Uh, do you all remember
the outcome of those games?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: They lost them both, They lost them both quality losses, thoughts.
Speaker 5: It's the eye test, man, it's trust ue, bro.
Speaker 6: Did you know that six of their wins this season
they didn't have you know, they lost two games, so
there's only so many. Six of their wins came against
opponents ranked one hundred and fifth to one hundred and
twenty seventh in the country.
Speaker 2: Not bad, not bad.
Speaker 6: But you know what I got those shiny helmets, their
Notre Dame. Their coach is handsome. Yes, so let's just
go ahead and put them in the playoffs. Your cowards,
your bombs.
Speaker 3: But their losses were better than Miami's losses, even though
they wins weren't as good.
Speaker 6: Oh my goodness, where did forget? Where did and then
they beat them? Where did they beat them in Notre
Dames at home? At their other place at there where
they should have had an advantage?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Weird.
Speaker 6: Anyway, I hope y'all can all agree with me that
Notre Dame is probably the worst thing to happen to
college football.
Speaker 2: Ever.
Speaker 4: Yes, it shouldn't be rocket science, Like to your point,
all these people are like, okay, well the metrics say
this and this, like, no, you played head to head.
Speaker 5: If you didn't play head to.
Speaker 4: Head, didn't take all those other things into consideration, right,
but like all this oh well, strength of schedule or whatever. Look,
Jake was mentioned in like me calling high school football games. Okay,
I called Episcopal games. They finished five and five. At
one point in the season. I remember having this conversation.
They were one and four and I was talking to
the guy to do the broadcast with, and I said,
you know, they better pick it up or they're going
to make the playoffs. He goes, thirty in the playoffs. Bud, Yeah,
it's like they're one and four. He goes, yeah, but
power rankings, their strength to schedule. I'm like, se, you
could just schedule whoever you want. You don't even have
to win them. No, but as long as you have
good losses, it's like you're in.
Speaker 2: I guess it's unbelievable.
Speaker 6: And that's the thing like if if okay, so if
Miami had like an extra loss, but they don't, that's
the same record and they beat them.
Speaker 2: Mmm. I hate you, notre Dame hate you.
Speaker 6: I don't want to say. I don't say the word hate.
I don't loosely say that. I don't throw it around.
Tell my children not to throw that word around. But
you know what, if you just joined a conference, there's
a lot of things too like about you that are potentials.
You got a lot of potential until then you're dead
to me. And I hope that the cf the CFP
plays off committee. I hope that they break up with
you on this perfect day for a breakup.
Speaker 2: Comte.
Speaker 3: He committee like, you can't move the goalpost as much
as you think you can. Just keep acting like these
are the rules in place if they behoove us. But
if they don't, then we're just gonna act like we
didn't say that before. It is such a hot mess.
And it's like, well, we'll take head to head in consideration.
If they end up by each other, it's what So
if they are a part in the rankings, then we'll
act like head to head didn't happen. But if they
end up seven and eight, then we'll we'll use that
as a like what do can we please get somebody
else to do this? And I know there's former coaches
and there's.
Speaker 2: A former like one former player.
Speaker 3: These guys are like out of touch with it's to
say the least, without trying to be too harsh, they're
out of touch. Go look up the profile pictures of
all the people that are on this committee, it's not good.
And then you got a hunter year at check out
there trying to make six seven jokes. What are we doing?
This is the college football Playoff, my man. You haven't
made since yet, and you were in the middle of
a coaching search trying to be the voice of the
college football Playoff. You got bigger fish to fry, my guy,
go worry about that, Like why do we have to
have people that are attached to a school currently on
the committee?
Speaker 2: This is too.
Speaker 3: It's always like I argue NFL officials should have been
full time for a long time. They were like lawyers
in the off season, right, and.
Speaker 2: Then they do that.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: You hold so much in the balance by what you call, right,
not even the money portion of it, but just like
the game is on the line, Like I want you
full time in the off season. When you're not calling
games in the regular season, right, have some time off.
Speaker 2: Go train to be an official, to be the best
you can.
Speaker 3: Same thing in the COSGE Football Playoff committee, my guy,
you're trying to hire a head coach. Are you really
watching BYU this week? Are you watching Miami this week?
How much do you could you name three players on
North Texas roster right now?
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, So it's like me having a vote. You
said it man, not me. I'd be better at it.
Go get somebody where.
Speaker 3: Hey, sure, okay, Like you've got something going on in
your life, but you're not an acting athletic director that's
trying to hire a head coach right now. It's like
the job deserves more attention than it gets.
Speaker 6: Why is college football? Just so I don't want to say, okay, well,
I'll say why is college football so dumb?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 6: Why is like there's so many things that so many
people see about common sense Like we talked, we just
everybody's been yelling at yelling at the clouds about the
schedule and coaches having to make decisions. Okay, it makes sense,
Like I get it. There's no easy fix, there's nothing
easy about it. But you got to fix something. And
then this class, like this isn't a beauty pageant, right
there shouldn't be five people voting on the winner based
on no like real scoreability, Like there's you got these
What other sport in the world that has a playoff system?
Is there arguments about who should be in the playoff.
There's a metric you should have to hit. You gotta
win this, you gotta win that, you gotta do this,
blah blah blah, and.
Speaker 2: You're in the playoff.
Speaker 6: If you don't do that, you're not in the playoff.
There shouldn't be coaches having to go lobby for their
team to get into the playoffs because no one's going
to win that argument. There shouldn't be an argument. There's
so many things about college football that needs to be fixed.
And like I've you know, I love watching the NFL, right,
I love watching both. But I think there's a lot
of people out there, like nationally that this this isn't
going to hit with anybody in Louisiana because it's they
would never matter to Louisiana people.
Speaker 2: But I think around the country.
Speaker 6: I think, like I think college football like loses some
people because of stupid things that they do.
Speaker 3: You and I have both lived in places where professional
football was bigger.
Speaker 2: Like not even close.
Speaker 6: I would I would say a majority of the countries
like that outside the Southeast, Yeah, yeah for sure. Do
you think people in state of Washington they care about
the Huskies over the Seahawks.
Speaker 2: And.
Speaker 3: Yeah, nobody in never cared about Colorado, Colorado state.
Speaker 2: People, people in Massachusetts.
Speaker 9: Four team playoff, let's do it that way. Everybody everyone gets.
Speaker 6: Oh gosh, but there when there was a system in place,
like there wasn't a great system, but like the BC system,
like it, I don't know if it really ever made
a mistake.
Speaker 2: It just wasn't. She don't had two teams. You just
had two teams.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you open up to twelve, I'd much rather
go off that right than have some sort of metric,
some committee that's just throwing stuff against the wall to
try to see what sticks. Because to Matt's point, in
the NFL, you have a system and how you make
the playoffs, win your division or you get a wildcard. Well,
in college football, everything's so different. Like Texas played a
completely different schedule than Virginia. Virginia played a completely different
schedule than Michigan. Michigan played a completely different schedule than
Texas Tech. It'sant Apple's orange.
Speaker 9: It like it's yeah, I mean you talked about it
last year all the time. Like baseball has RPI, basketball
has POM and that yesh and net rankings and I
just don't really get why college football kind of got
away from that, like maybe have the conference. The people
that win in the conference they get the automatic bit
or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is fine, But why don't you.
Speaker 9: Do that for like for the rest of the people
that you can't really figure out, Why don't you use
the system for that?
Speaker 10: Like I don't.
Speaker 3: Every other sport in college athletics has something they use.
They have analytics, they have metrics, computer rankings.
Speaker 2: That they use.
Speaker 5: Jake, we have the eye test.
Speaker 3: We have the eye test from somebody that white dudes
couldn't pop a pimple in high school football back.
Speaker 4: In the day on the original college.
Speaker 2: In the game for thirty years.
Speaker 4: You can rich twelve team BCS playoff, is what I
heard from Jacob Pester, And I like that.
Speaker 6: I mean that's I would love thats was never wrong.
I don't believe you only had two teams.
Speaker 4: The complaint was, it's the only sport college or professional
that doesn't have a playoff.
Speaker 6: Okay, isn't there isn't there a website that actually still
runs the business system?
Speaker 2: Where does it have Notre Dame?
Speaker 5: No, they're not in the top ten.
Speaker 3: No shot, we'll find that out. Let's take a break
and when we come back, We'll tell you where Notre
Dame would be in the BCS.
Speaker 2: Maybe they are at the top eoy.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but I wonder if they would be
ahead of Miami, who again on a football field this year?
Back one the head to head contest between the Hurricanes
and the fighting Irish. All right, we'll take a break
more OTB when we come back. Your live from the
Raisin Kine studio, top the bench. All right, go to
trash rangers dot com if you want to sign up
for the residential or their commercial trash service. They are
right there for you on the home page or trash
rangers dot com. If you want a roll off dumpster,
remember there's three different sizes to choose from, So give

Speaker 2: Now, you can check out this sanitation.
Speaker 3: Department over at trash Rangers and what they can do
for you there as well. Go to the website today
that is trash rangers dot com.
Speaker 6: S right, trash Rangers the most reliable trash pickup service
in Louisiana. Like Jake, just told you about their sanitation department.
They're portable restaurants or portable toilets. So if you got
like a festival, have you got a construction site, anything
with like a big group, if you want to call them,
have that portable toilet delivered right there. They are number
one at picking up number two. I tell you that
every single day, and I love that catch line. It
makes me laugh. Likes to chuckle every single time you
give me a call, whether it's trash, whether it's waste, whatever,
it's trash, rangers dot.
Speaker 7: Com, doll pay it.
Speaker 9: Don't pay the doll.
Speaker 1: Let it come doll pav do dump from a locker
room to the airwaves. Gets off the bench with Jacob
Hester and Matt Flynn with.
Speaker 7: No good gues.
Speaker 8: Details don't matter.
Speaker 2: We both pad the press season nice.
Speaker 7: You know sometimes it'd be like that. We big no
other times up down.
Speaker 2: One on one of you, but we bigger than anything.
Speaker 3: Remember all right, welcome back here. It is O TB
here live from the Raisin Kanes studio. Always remember it
is a great time to go for dose. It doesn't
matter what the situation, it is going to be the
correct time. But I do say peak time is the
holiday season, so make sure you grab an ice cold
do skis or two or six or whatever you're in
for that night. It is always a great time to
go for Dose. An incredible website that Matt absolutely loves
dot it is. It is bookmarked on his computer. Do
sekis dot com. Have your ID ready? Go for dose?
Speaker 2: Did you look out?
Speaker 6: I got the BCS ranking? Okay, I think this is
per On three.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, you want to go twelve to one,
one to twelve, let's go. We'll just go one to twelve.
Let's see.
Speaker 6: I'm trying to pull up the side by side here
with the current Okay, so number one of course Ohio state,
which matches number two Indiana. We got to even match here,
three Georgia, four Oregon. So that's a little bit different
because I think the current rankings have Texas Tech at four,
five oh Miss Okay six, Texas Tech, YEP seven, Texas
A and M eight, Oklahoma, Sooners nine, Notre Dame, Notre
Dame ten, Alabama, Crimson Tide, Alabamas and Alabama eleven, b
y U twelve, Vanderbilt at oh thirteen, thirteen thirteen, Miami fourteen,
Texas fifteen Utah.
Speaker 2: And so the VCS would save us.
Speaker 6: Let's see we have Okay, so the highest interesting two
lanes twenty one, James Madison twenty yep, North Texas nineteen.
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, the winner of the Americans going because
it's gonna be a quality, quality victory for them. They're
gonna you know, JMU they don't have that same opportunity.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 6: So, but North Texas and JMU are probably the biggest
I'm seeing the biggest discrepancies between the current college Football
Playoff rankings and what the BCS would have had him
about five spots. So North Texas would be your highest,
Vandy would be right there.
Speaker 3: Leave it to Vandy to be like the one time
that a ten and two SEC teams and not going
to get into the playoff unless something happens Alabama WYU.
Speaker 2: They both lose.
Speaker 3: Fandy probably gets in some way somehow.
Speaker 9: But if I still don't Yeah.
Speaker 2: How do y'all feel about that?
Speaker 6: I don't like the fact that people do get penalized
for conference championships games.
Speaker 5: So you made it, if you made it, you shouldn't get.
Speaker 6: If you made make the conference championship in the SEC,
you should be in.
Speaker 3: I mean that long ago in the four team playoff
where Georgia didn't have a loss until that game and
they got left at home and they took it out
on Florida State.
Speaker 4: Because if they want to look at, oh, we're taking
the top three SEC teams, Okay, well, if you made
it to the SEC championship, you wanted the top two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not.
Speaker 5: And then they're like, oh, well it's no, it's the
highest ranked.
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, but you're you said you wanted the
three best.
Speaker 5: How were they not one of the three best.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 6: That's garbage that a team like Notre Dame doesn't have
to play in a conference championship because if they did
play any conference championship, they would lose. And then another
team that makes it who didn't take the cowards rout
loses a conference championship and gets penalized for it. That
is stupid. That's another common sense thing. So in my opinion,
the college football playoffs should be set right now.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Okay, and conference maybe the people,
maybe not the seedings.
Speaker 3: I know this is never going to happen because of
the dollars in the sense of Conference championship weekend, and
it's another opportunity right in Atlanta, there's going to be
a pack stadium for Georgia and Alabama. And used to
like I would say, there's no way we can get
rid of that game. Winning an SEC championship. To me,
outside of the Natty, it was the biggest thing we
did in college. It's massive. We're about to watch one
versus two and it's not going to mean a damn
thing though in the Big Ten championship. Think about that,
one versus two is playing and no matter what happens,
both teams are in the Coage Football playoff.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what happens.
Speaker 3: So the game means something certainly to those teams and
trying to win, you know, a conference championship, which you
should be prideful in that. But on the outside, it's
like one versus two is playing in the conference championship
weekend and it doesn't really matter. Seating is the only
thing it matters for I think both teams in a
close game, both teams still get a bye.
Speaker 2: By the way you think. So the.
Speaker 6: Worst case scenario, you're hosting a playoff game, right that's
the worst case.
Speaker 2: The worst case you get blown out and that still happens.
Mm hm hm screw you, Notre Dame.
Speaker 3: Do we believe Alabama is going to be in win
or lose? Do we believe it? I know you said
they should be. Are they going to be.
Speaker 10: No season too?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I mean the three three three losses SEC teams all missed.
Speaker 3: If you have yeah, if you have three losses and
I know you played an extra game, but Vanderbilt has
two losses and you can say Alabama has the head
to head. They do, but you can't say it for
that and not say it for Notre Dame. Miami committee.
If you're going to use it, you got to use it,
and if you don't, you got to leave it at home.
Speaker 2: They don't have to use anyth I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But if that for Alabama, if they lose, if they
use it for Alabama to get in over Vandy, but
you don't use it for Miami to getting over Notre Dame,
then you either got to or you got.
Speaker 2: To leave it at home. They don't use anything. They
use bad jokes.
Speaker 3: Trust me, they don't have vibes there. I hear you,
I hear you. They don't have vibe Well, they got
bad vibes. I guess you're right, not great vibes. They
got car brother vibes.
Speaker 6: Can you imagine like if a couple of those members
had a bad day, like their kids are mad at him,
life gets upset something like that, they come in there, I'll.
Speaker 4: Pissed off in a bad mood, super nippicky.
Speaker 6: They take it out on somebody like that can happen
when you leave it up to humans voting instead of
their system in place where you know, you just make
the playoffs or you don't.
Speaker 5: The good news is.
Speaker 4: Though they're not biased, they do leave their hats at
the doors, so that isn't good.
Speaker 6: True, they have to be unbiased. Yeah, but you you
can't check their underwear though.
Speaker 10: True, you don't know if they're well, you know.
Speaker 2: What the socks, Yeah, Notre Dame gold underwear. It's a
great points that tattoo in your left cheek like Miami's.
That's that's still just that's right? Is that a Is
it a lucky the Irish tramp stamp? You got what's
tramp stamp?
Speaker 8: Me?
Speaker 6: Matt It's a tattoo in the lower portion of your back. Yeah, okay,
strategically placed for when your short shirt looks up a
little bit over.
Speaker 2: Yep, that you see that. I got you, I got you.
Mm hmm.
Speaker 10: I think those are back in.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they're back. Yeah, Matt's excited. He's got one
in his closet, ready to go with the best.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what a tramp stamp in my closet? No, one
of the shirts that shows your tramp stamps and.
Speaker 10: Low rise jeans, they're back, right.
Speaker 2: So which one the tattoos back?
Speaker 10: All of it?
Speaker 5: The two thousands are back, like the shirts back.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was technically never had to stop for the
people that get it because it's permanent.
Speaker 9: True, But like people stopped getting them, just like people
stopped getting tribal tattoos.
Speaker 4: Okay, remember the remember the barboyer tattoos those too?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, bring those back.
Speaker 6: That went to the gym like twice when people don't
get them. How do you know who the biggest bad
ass is?
Speaker 5: Ship?

wires are there?
Speaker 4: They used to be a lot, a lot. I knew
a lot of like friends growing up. Their dads would

Speaker 2: No doubt. Like that.
