00:00College football, of course, Game of the Year you're talking about. How about Alabama and Georgia

00:06on Saturday night in Tuscaloosa, Scotty? What a game. Alabama comes out and absolutely blitzes

00:13them in the first half. Georgia chips away, chips away, chips away, takes the lead in the late in

00:20the fourth quarter, and then Alabama gets the ball right back, Scotty. And you know I had to go find

00:26Chris Stewart, who was on with you at the end of last week before the game. So here's Chris Stewart

00:33on the Crimson Tide Sports Network. This is the Ryan Williams 75-yard touchdown catch to put the

00:39back on top after Georgia took the lead. Snap going to Mill Road, looking deep downfield,

00:46looking for Williams, comes back, makes a touch, trying to split defenders,

00:49makes them bang into each other, stays on his feet, breaks a tackle, scores, scores, scores,

00:56Ryan Williams, one play, 75 yards, four plus two equals six, and Alabama regains the lead.

01:08What a call by Chris Stewart on that Williams 75-yard at a pirouette, 360 spin down the sideline,

01:16incredible. I think what's more incredible to me, Mike, is that Georgia came back from down 30 to

01:22seven to take the lead. You know, that was amazing that they came all the way back. You talk about

01:29not giving up, and then, you know, Alabama had to pull that play off the very next play to make

01:36it happen and win the game. And I got to tell you, I'm a little surprised, like you're up 30 to seven,

01:42you blow the lead at home at Bryant-Denny, then you win it on a miracle play, let's face facts,

01:52and then you get rewarded by moving up four spots to number one in the nation. Now, remember,

01:59Georgia won a game 13-12, and they were punished for it and fell from one to two.

02:07Then Texas wins the game, but I guess by not enough points, they won again.

02:14Arch Manning had another big game, and they're punished for winning. And then you win and jump

02:22four spots when you blew a 30-7 lead, and they're number one now because they somehow found a way

02:29to win after they blew that lead. I don't agree with them going four spots to number one at all.

02:36That shows me how stupid that poll is that they come out with every week.

02:40I got to be honest with you. I mean, what I saw was a team up 30 to seven,

02:46thought they had it in the bag, let Georgia come all the way back and take the lead,

02:50and then they had to pull one out of their tuchus to win it. So I don't know why they jumped Texas

02:57for my money. I just don't see it. Now, I can see them being number two, I guess,

03:03but why did they go to number one? Because they won a game that they blew?

03:07I mean, they were up 30 to seven and blew the lead. What was so impressive about it?

03:13You cannot blow a 30-7 lead and get rewarded for it. Meanwhile, these other two teams,

03:20they won the games and were both dropped in the ratings. They won and they were still punished.

03:28I mean, it makes no sense to me. I mean, fair enough. Oh, so they got there because they beat

03:34Georgia, right? Well, they just told us two weeks before that that Georgia sucks,

03:39right? Because Georgia barely won. Those people make no sense to me whatsoever with how they

03:46see football. You cannot be punished for winning. You shouldn't be. And that Georgia game there,

03:55they barely beat Kentucky. Suddenly that doesn't look as bad anymore after Kentucky beat Ole Miss

04:02on Saturday. So suddenly that win by Georgia on the road in Lexington, I think has a little bit

04:09more weight or is going to have a little bit more weight as we move along. So you think that they

04:14should jump Ohio State and Texas and everybody and go to number one because they won a game that

04:21they blew a 30-point lead? I think that what the people that vote in that poll look at is,

04:27is that they won a top five game. Texas has not, you know, they didn't win a top five game this

04:33week. Georgia didn't win a top game. Alabama beat another team in the top five. So they reward them

04:38by putting them to the top of the ladder. No, it's because they have to have Alabama

04:44or Georgia number one every year total. That's why we did it.
