00:00And of course, on Wednesday afternoon, it was the prime era and year number two in Colorado

00:09getting off to a start with Deion Sanders at the podium.

00:13Joe, as we look at the football perspective for Colorado this year, Donnie and I had the

00:18debate kind of like we just did with the New York Jets when there's so much notoriety and

00:23attention for a team that has struggled to even see the playoffs in the last decade plus.

00:29What does actual success look like for a Colorado team that was four and eight a season ago

00:35in year number one under Deion Sanders?

00:38What does success look like in year number two?

00:41Yeah, we talked about it on the radio, Ben.

00:44Success in year two is six and six and a bowl appearance.

00:47That would be the biggest thing for Colorado to get back at least over the hump and have

00:51their sights set on year number three with the Deion era.

00:55The biggest question, Ben, and we talked about it again, does Deion want to be there

00:59from years three to five?

01:01If so, the six win possibility is well within reach.

01:05They have winnable games.

01:07They have the type of quarterback in Shadour Sanders to outscore teams.

01:11What do you get from the defense?

01:12They were pathetic against the run.

01:14And most importantly, the offensive line broke down 50 plus sacks allowed.

01:18They need to run the football better as well.

01:21If they can get the six wins, that's a huge accomplishment.

01:25But these tickets on them winning a national championship or breaking down the college

01:30football playoff door, you got to get real.

01:34They got a tough game right out of the gate against NDSU.

01:36We'll see what happens with North Dakota State University, certainly a quality program.

01:40But let's move on to some other power five conferences.

01:43You got the ACC, the Big 12, the Big 10 and the SEC.

01:46A lot of changing parts here moving through and through favorites here.

01:50Florida State in the ACC, Utah in the Big 12, the Big 10 still with Ohio State, and

01:54then you have Georgia at a plus 185 in the SEC.

01:57With the changing landscape of college football, give us some teams there in those power conferences

02:01that you might be looking forward to to win those conferences.

02:03Yeah, I mean, the ACC, I'm dialed into Florida State because I believe they have the best

02:09roster.

02:10Donnie, I mean, Clemson is appealing at four to one in Louisville.

02:13They made it to the ACC championship game last year and in the first year with Jeff

02:18Brown.

02:19So it's going to be a team that has odds at 10 to one in the Big 12.

02:22I know Utah is the front runner, but the conference realignment scares me.

02:26Kyle Whittingham, is he all dialed in?

02:28What do you get out of Cam Rising?

02:31So I'm going to go with my guy, Texas Tech and Joey McGuire.

02:34I think he's done a fantastic job.

02:36Brennan Morton and Taj Brooks come back, 18 total starters.

02:40I think they have legs.

02:41If we're talking the SEC, I only go with family and I'm going with Nussmeier and Brian Kelly.

02:48They have great odds at plus 750 to win or 950 now to win the SEC championship plus 125

02:55to make the playoffs and Brian Kelly, I trust.
