00:00We are now less than a week away, six days out from a
00:03college football playoff national championship game in
00:06Atlanta inside Mercedes Benz Stadium between two powerhouse
00:10programs in the sport. Two standard bearers of success in
00:15college football and two historic universities. Ohio
00:19State and Notre Dame. The Buckeyes, an eight and a half
00:22point favorite against the Fighting Irish. A total of
00:25forty-five and a hook. Joe, a projected hypothetical national
00:29championship matchup between Ohio State and Notre Dame
00:33featured a nine and a half point spread. After the
00:36Buckeyes beat Texas in the Cotton Bowl and Notre Dame had
00:39dispatched of Penn State in the Orange Bowl on Thursday and
00:43Friday night. The actual line opened up at nine and a half.
00:47It has worked back to the Fighting Irish ever so
00:50slightly but still north of a touchdown. In your estimation,
00:55Germonary, for Monday's national championship game
00:58between the Irish and the Buckeyes, will the game be
01:01more competitive than this large eight and a half point
01:04spread might indicate? Uh no, I don't uh I I think here Ben
01:11that if it's gonna be competitive, it's gonna be
01:15because Ohio State has reverted back and shoots itself in the
01:19foot uh to give Notre Dame an opportunity uh in this game
01:24but if the Ohio State that is uh we have seen in the playoffs
01:29over these last three or four games shows up uh then I don't
01:32see how I think this game has all the makings of a absolute
01:38train wreck here uh not that Notre Dame doesn't deserve to
01:42be here but I just don't believe that Notre Dame is
01:47going to be great playing from behind uh I think if Ohio State
01:51plays error-free football, does not uh shoot themselves in
01:55the foot. I think that there might very well be a laddering
01:59situation available to people uh lay the seven, lay the eight,
02:03lay the nine, lay the ten. It could be absolute two
02:07touchdowns or more when it's all said and done and Ohio
02:10State wins.
