00:00I'm excited about Saturday. I'm excited about when they pick these 12 teams. Let's get to

00:22talking about the Saturday games. The one you're most interested in and why the one

00:27so I think between the SEC and the Big 10 championship games, which is Georgia and Texas

00:36and then Penn State and Oregon. I think those four teams are in no matter what, then it

00:40just gets into the seating with the Big 12 championship game here in Arlington. One of

00:45those teams is in because they'll be the fifth ranked conference champion or the fourth ranked

00:48if they jump Boise State, but one of Arizona State and Iowa State will be in the one that's

00:52interesting to me just from the committee's perspective. The people choosing it is the

00:57ACC championship game. So that is Clemson and SMU Clemson and SMU. Now, did you know

01:03SMU is the only powerful team to go undefeated in conference play this year? Yes, which I

01:08think is awesome. I think that's really impressive. No other team did that only SMU. They're only

01:13losses to BYU, which out of conference. So how how would you grade their the ACC conference

01:19compared to SEC maybe? I think the it's definitely the third third tier third tier and but regardless

01:28of the tier of it, it's not easy to go undefeated in any conference. So the focus that it takes

01:33to do it each week and especially after faltering early for them to bounce back and go undefeated

01:38the rest of the way is awesome. I think that should be rewarded.
