00:00Who are your sure things that you think have, like, right now, a legitimate shot to win

00:09it all?

00:11I think the four teams that stick out are Texas.

00:15They're complete.

00:16They're taking care of business.

00:17They have two quarterbacks that are legit, that could lead a national championship run.

00:22And I was up there in the big house when they took care of Michigan.

00:24And I think that's starting to look like more, that was more about Texas than it was about

00:29Michigan.

00:30Ohio State's pretty complete as well.

00:32When you have Quinshot Judkins, Travion Henderson, both averaging more than, combining to average

00:37more than nine yards per carry.

00:39That's the old three yards in a cloud of dust big thing times three.

00:43That'll get, that'll work, especially up here.

00:46Alabama would be next, along with Georgia, and we're going to see those two this weekend.

00:50I think both of those teams are more than capable of winning it all.

00:54Interesting test for Kalen DeBoer, right?

00:55I mean, he is two and one against top five teams, but Nick Saban was 30 and 15 against

01:01top five teams.

01:02It's the same winning percentage, but over just a little bit longer timeframe.

01:07So that game's in Tuscaloosa on Saturday night on ABC and primetime, and Georgia's favored

01:17by two.

01:19Georgia's better than Alabama at this point, this team, the last couple of years.

01:24Do you agree with that?

01:25Yeah.

01:26I mean, like, I kept looking at that line today and saying, why is Georgia favored?

01:30And I circled back to what you just said, they're the better football team.

01:34They had a bad half against Alabama in the SEC championship game last year, but they

01:38have a defense that hasn't allowed a touchdown all season.

01:42They've had a week to talk about the Kentucky scare.

01:45Obviously, that was a close game, and the running game wasn't going around Carson Beck,

01:50but nobody uses the underdog card on this planet better than, well, you maybe have an

01:55answer to somebody better, but Kirby Smart does it as well as anybody, getting his team

02:00to believe that nobody believes in them.

02:02So they go play out on an edge, and I'm sure he'll do that when they go down to Tuscaloosa,

02:06because I'm sure a lot of betters will bet on Alabama in this game.
