00:00Throw the mic to you.
00:05Give us the one team, whether it's the top of the betting board or other, that you're
00:09expected to take out the national championship, I know it's early days, and give us a pretender,
00:14one team that absolutely should not be getting the buzz or the attention that the public
00:19is showing.
00:20Yeah.
00:21I like this.
00:22By the way, I apologize, Dubs, with my last name, you nail it every time, that's so difficult.
00:28Sermonello, you nail it every time, I appreciate that.
00:31Yeah, I'll say contender for me, Ohio State, I think you have to have a short memory with
00:36the Buckeyes, tough loss against Michigan, but I think they're going to be angry and
00:41ornery for the next month, so I think they'll start to look like that $20 million NIL-infused
00:49roster.
00:50The pretender for me is Texas.
00:53I love the defense.
00:54The offense has been inconsistent.
00:58I'm not saying they won't beat Arizona State in round two, assuming they beat Clemson in
01:04round one, I just think they're overrated at this point.
01:07Look at the numbers here, plus 360, number two in terms of odds, I just don't think what
01:12we've seen from this team over the past month does not equate to the second best team.
01:18The path is manageable, but I think there's a little bit of a hint of pretender when it
01:24comes to Texas at this point.
01:27A little pretender-ism.
01:30As we move into the business end here, the playoffs, who's the biggest miss the boat
01:35for you, Rich?
01:36Is it all about Alabama?
01:39Regular season has been run and done, you've now got the luxury of sitting back of who's
01:43playing in these bowl games, who's playing in the college football playoffs.
01:47Who's that one team that we're missing, and why are we missing them?
01:52The one that surprised me, it's another good question, is Ole Miss.
01:57I like Lane Kiffin, I think he's great for the game.
02:00He's back to his Portal King antics again, he signs more kids out of the Portal today.
02:06But considering how well he's done in recruiting, both high school recruiting and Portal recruiting,
02:12I'm a little disappointed that they fell off the map in the second half of the season.
02:17Upset loss to Kentucky, out of the mix in terms of the playoffs.
02:22I think with Jackson Dart under center, and all of the defensive stars that they have,
02:27that should have been a playoff team.
02:29I think they had a better roster than Alabama this year.
02:31So Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss, a bit of a disappointment for me, even more so than Alabama when it
02:39comes to missing out on the playoffs.
