00:00The AP top 25 poll delivered to us yesterday, and if we do look at the top of the standings,

00:10not much change here, right?

00:11Georgia, Ohio State, Texas, Alabama, Notre Dame, a couple of those teams moving up slightly

00:17and rightfully so.

00:18But if we start with the top, just Georgia and Ohio State, 57 first place votes went

00:23to Georgia, five for Ohio State.

00:26So those two teams here with those, what, 62 total votes are up top of the standings.

00:31Do we agree?

00:32And again, there shouldn't be much change.

00:34Georgia hammered Clemson, Ohio State with their easy victory, but Georgia playing a

00:38highly ranked opponent.

00:39They deserve to be number one in my eyes, Dubzy.

00:41How about you?

00:42Yeah, they made a mockery of the Clemson Tigers, and we knew they were going to be motivated

00:46to start a new season.

00:48You win 42 at the last 44, but it wasn't good enough to make it into the college football

00:53playoffs.

00:54So I thought that he delivered, put up some fantastic numbers there.

00:57So I thought they were, I guess, the most impressive out of the big squads there coming

01:02in for week one.

01:03So absolutely, Georgia, you look at the odds, that's telling us the same story.

01:07It's going to take a lot to sort of derail that ship, but with a bit of extra motivation,

01:10fantastic to see them up on top.

01:12I thought Texas, the Longhorns with Quinn Ewers, they were very, very strong in their

01:16performance.

01:17And don't sleep on good old Jalen Milrow and Bama.

01:21I know there's no Nick Saban at the helm, but I'll tell you what, they look like every

01:24bit of the power force that we've seen over the last decade.

01:28So that was the common theme for me through week one, Donnie.

01:30I thought we saw everything we needed to from the big programs.

01:34There was a couple of outliers.

01:35I thought USC probably came up with the most impressive victory over LSU.

01:40Then I tell you what, Lincoln Riley absolutely needed that to get a bit of confidence.

01:44And as we touched on a little earlier in the show there, the Seminoles, they were probably

01:48the biggest disappointment through the first two weeks.

01:51The disaster in Dublin, it carried across back in here for week one.

01:54That wasn't good enough.

01:55And we've seen that with them being the first ranked team prior to the season, now dropping

02:00out of that top 25.

02:01Yeah.

02:02Well, take a look at that six through 10 here in the rankings.

02:04Your Ole Miss 1-0, absolutely hammer job on firmetry that we're supposed to do, but always

02:09impressive to see some of those scorers get the 50, 60, and 70 points.

02:13You take a look at Oregon, which had a really interesting dub seat.

02:16They were able to score 24 to 14, despite a ton of yards for the Oregon Ducks.

02:21They also now in the big 10.

02:23Take a look at Penn State with a great victory over West Virginia.

02:26That line at closing, seven to seven and a half, depending on where you were shopping

02:29at, easily dismantling of the West Virginia Mountaineers.

02:32Then you take a look at Missouri and Michigan winding at the top 10, which is interesting

02:36to me because the national champion last year were the Michigan Wolverines.

02:40They did win by three touchdowns.

02:42They were favored by about three touchdowns, but I came away from that football game because

02:46it was a six-point game in the fourth quarter, questioning Michigan just a little bit more.

02:52Now, granted, they won easily.

02:54Did you have any issues with Michigan's win over Fresno State, or hey, look, game number

02:58one, decent opponent, handled their business, and they're going to move forward.
