00:00Donnie we talked about the top seven being the teams to pay attention to in the national championship race

00:05How about just correlating the odds to the top ten national championship odds on the fan duel?

00:12Sportsbook Georgia is the favorite at plus 280 Georgia ranks number one, Ohio State number two

00:19second best price to win a title

00:21Oregon number three third best price to win a title, Texas number four fourth best number to win a national championship

00:29Alabama and Ole Miss five and six

00:3214 to 1 14 to 1 in both spots

00:35LSU really is the only change up from the AP top 10 to what we see here on the national

00:42Title list 18 to 1 on the Bayou Bengals that right there tied for the seventh best number alongside Notre Dame

00:49But LSU the only team listed here in the top 10 of the national championship

00:54Prices that ranks outside of the top 10 in the AP preseason poll LSU checks in at number 13 in the country

01:01It's kind of interesting to see because with the changes of the actual conferences, right?

01:06It's like a Georgia and Ohio State fantastic SEC and the big ten, but then you see Oregon

01:10Hey, look it out the Pac-12 is involved only to realize that Ohio State to Oregon three. They're now two big ten teams

01:17Hey, look, Texas gonna represent the big twelve is number four. No, they're gonna represent the SEC

01:21So one in four Alabama Ole Miss LSU SEC

01:24So some of these top dominant teams here and this is what you like to though

01:28Because if you are a team that's looking to go into a power conference

01:31This is what I always joked about like why would you want to fight tooth and nail to get to the SEC?

01:36I understand the payday at the end of the season

01:39But you can also have big paydays for your university

01:41If you have a great football team that continuously just makes the playoffs you get more advertising revenue a bigger national stage

01:47So when you say to yourself, well, why in the heck would Oregon want to go to the big ten?

01:51And now have to play better football teams

01:52Well now there's 12 teams in there and there's more money and a legitimate chance to make it into these final numbers

01:58It's the same thing. We took like Oklahoma just stay in the big twelve at this point

02:01Why would you want to go anywhere at this point?

02:03Well, the changes that are made from these other conferences you can make money now

02:06It didn't make sense to me top two top four get in staying the easiest conference

02:10You can possibly be with a legitimate chance to make it in so at least now

02:14We're seeing these teams head into the big conferences and saying, okay

02:17We can probably afford two losses now as opposed to zero and still have a chance to play for the championship

02:22Which is all you can ask for that's what I like to see

02:24But it still is interesting to see that top five and be like, oh look at the old conferences

02:29They used to be in only realizing now. We're more condemned. Yeah into the same conferences
