00:00Uh, I don't know if you heard us, but listen, I know I'm a Cain Homer and I just admitted

00:10on television all over the world that they don't have fans.

00:15Their fans are like a pocket of idiots that I love, but they're basically a group of people

00:20that you're old school guys, right?

00:22Old school, old school crew from the UD games.

00:26Nobody's there.

00:28I mean, half the stadium's empty when they play at the Hard Rock, but here's the deal.

00:32Alabama obviously is a gigantic business and a gigantic fan base.

00:36I get it.

00:37They've won all the titles.

00:38They've had Bear Bryant, all the rest, Nick Saban, and I get it, but you cannot explain

00:43away to me the facts of their losses at Vanderbilt and Oklahoma, which were pathetic and Miami's

00:51losses to Georgia Tech and Syracuse were both great games, both violent games, five

00:57point and a four point game, and against two really good quarterbacks, Haynes King and

01:02McCord.

01:03I mean, this is absolute bullshit to me.

01:05I'm a Cain fan, but there's no way you could sell me nine and three over a 10 and two team

01:09that lost by one score in both games on the road.

01:12Well, I tweeted it out on, um, I tweeted it out on, on Friday when they played actually.

01:18So it was past Friday night and, you know, we heard Nick Saban say last week, well, if

01:22Ole Miss were in the, the ACC or the big 12, what would their record be?

01:27Kind of insinuating that they wouldn't lose games.

01:29They wouldn't have lost as many games.

01:31And the thing is Georgia Tech, Georgia Tech are an ACC team.

01:36They shoulda, coulda, woulda beaten the Georgia Bulldogs, right?

01:39They took them to eight overtimes.

01:42There's an ACC team, boy, you're mighty Georgia Bulldogs in the SEC.

01:46Georgia, it's too bad Georgia Tech didn't knock them off just to cause, you know, just

01:50to really shut the SEC up.

01:53You know, Miami have a case to be upset about.

01:56There's no debates, but this is the problem, bro.

01:58Now that we made it a 12 team playoff, I said, wow, now there's going to be a big argument

02:02about who's the 13th best team in the country is, right?

02:05Sort of like the NCAA tournament.

02:08Miami brought this upon themselves.

02:10The Syracuse loss is tough, but Syracuse are a good football team, right?

02:14Syracuse aren't a bad football team.

02:15And something you said too, you look at Bama's losses, bro.

02:19I mean, they were like three touchdown favorites, right?

02:22I mean, they got smoked by the Oklahoma Sooners.

02:25That should have counted for something.

02:27It should have meant something.

02:28And I do agree with you.

02:30This thing is very political and business-like.

02:33They're worried about TV ratings.

02:34They're worried about selling tickets for these games.

02:36They don't want empty stadiums.

02:37And Scott's right.

02:38The fact of the matter is, hell, Miami home games don't sell out.

02:41You think these guys are going to go on the road somewhere, right?

02:44The school's not that big to begin with.

02:46There's not enough students.

02:47There's not enough.

02:48And that comes into play here.

02:50They're thinking about it.

02:50Are we going to fill stadiums?

02:51What's the TV ratings going to be?

02:53That comes into play.

02:55I understand your frustration.

02:56I honestly believe Scott, Alabama, and Miami

02:59are like brutally, painfully equal football teams.

03:03It'd be a really fun game to see them play, right?

03:06Cam Ward versus Mill Road, a game would be a track meet.

03:09Miami could beat anybody in the country.

03:11They could lose to anybody in this playoff format as well.

03:14But it looks like the Canes are going to get screwed

03:16and be on the outside looking in.

03:18And the fact is, the committee just hates the ACC, Scott.

03:21They don't give the ACC enough credit.

03:23Like I said, Georgia Tech's out there.

03:25They nearly beat Georgia.

03:26Georgia Tech's a good football team.

03:28They played Georgia at that eight-point game last year, too.

03:31So all this mighty SEC crap, I'm not really buying into it.

03:36Yeah, they're good.

03:37They're a good football program.

03:39And they knew they blew that game.

03:41They were up 17-0.

03:43You said it yesterday.

03:45They had a chance to score and two-blank to win the game,

03:47and they didn't do it.

03:48And the coach rued the day that he made that bad decision.

03:51And then we said earlier, if McCord played at Ohio State,

03:55they would have already won a national championship.

03:57Howard's the reason they suck.

03:59They're not that good.

04:00The kid at Cuse is a better quarterback.

04:02The kid at Cuse has better numbers than Ward on the season

04:08and wasn't even mentioned for the Heisman Trophy.

04:12It's a good point.

04:12Look how he turned that program around.

04:14Like, seriously, like they started winning games.

04:16Like they basically, and they admitted it.

04:19They were like, what a difference

04:20a transfer portal quarterback can make.

04:21Like, you know, McCord, it really is, you know,

04:25Ryan Day deserves it.

04:26And there's another one, Scott.

04:27Like, welcome to the playoffs, bro.

04:29This is it.

04:30Let's just be real.

04:31We all knew the SEC and the Big Ten,

04:33they're basically like the Genoveses and the Gambinos, bro.

04:38I'm just throwing out two, you know what I mean?

04:40You got two crime families, they're running it.

04:44Everybody else is like, they're going to get the scraps.
