00:00Okay, so the Southeastern Conference, there's not going to be a lot of debating anymore

00:07about too many teams from the SEC getting in the four-team college football playoff.

00:12We've now moved on to complaining about them having three or four teams, most likely in

00:16the 12-team college football playoff.

00:19So look, I do think, Bill, that with this new format, it's going to create a lot of

00:26fun for people who follow.

00:28But I still think there's going to be some angst for the SEC, because when I look at

00:32the conference and I see 12 teams are going to make it, I'm still seeing like a minimum

00:38of three, maybe even four teams from this conference getting in.

00:41I mean, Georgia, Missouri, Tennessee could get in too.

00:45Let's not forget about Alabama, Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss, LSU.

00:49I mean, and Oklahoma and Texas, like I can't find a way that four teams don't get in the

00:55college football playoff.

00:56I think it starts with the fact that I think 10 teams in the SEC are actual playoff contenders.

01:03You could take that, all the ranked teams, they have nine ranked teams.

01:06And then you could take it off the board a little bit and maybe look at a sleeper if

01:10Florida were to get through that brutal schedule.

01:13So yeah, and I think with the SEC, there's a sense of openness because Nick Saban's gone.

01:19So it's not just about Alabama and starting every conversation about Alabama and Georgia,

01:24even though those are two of the three best teams, in my opinion.

01:27I think Texas is a playoff caliber team with Quinn Ewers and what they got going on there.

01:32Big season for Ole Miss, friendly schedule for the Rebels as well.

01:36And then you get into that second tier, like you were talking about, Tennessee, LSU, Missouri,

01:42they all feel like they can be in that mix.

01:44I would, if there was an over-under on it, I think the SEC gets at least three, could

01:49get four, outside chance they get five playoff teams.
