00:00arguments for and arguments against. Then once we see the final playoff picture, next Sunday,

00:08there will be arguments for and arguments against, but those arguments against and for won't mean

00:14anything because that top 12 will be set in stone. If we look at the college football rankings,

00:19one through 12 as of this morning, Oregon, Texas, Penn State, Notre Dame, Georgia, Ohio State,

00:25Tennessee, SMU, Indiana, Boise State, Alabama, and Miami. Now, a lot of key information came

00:31out of it yesterday, which we are going to get to, but if we're just looking right now,

00:36let's just say, Dubsy, at the top four, Oregon, Texas, Penn State, Notre Dame,

00:40there are no issues there. Georgia, Ohio State, that's where the issues start to begin,

00:45and not from a Georgia side, it's Ohio State. If we pair Ohio State up with Miami,

00:51the movers and the shakers where they would be, they really, talking about Miami, got penalized

00:55for a loss on the road against a quality Syracuse team when Ohio State was a three touchdown favorite

01:02at home against a bad Michigan football team and lost. Ohio State and Miami right in the crosshairs

01:08this morning, Dubsy. Yeah, they really are, Donnie, and for a couple of teams and a couple of,

01:14you know, fans of the big programs, it'd be a little salty this morning. I guess we're now

01:18seeing a little further the measuring stick of wins, losses, and stall points and how the

01:23committee are really seeing this thing, and you highlighted a couple of teams that stood out to

01:27you. I'd tease it off the top there. It's Bama sneaking in to that top 12, taking the 11th spot

01:33for me. You know, should they be there? Shouldn't they be there? It tells us it really has been

01:37about the body of work. They sit, you know, nine and three there with some pretty, pretty,

01:43you know, embarrassing losses there. One was an absolute blowout, but it's still enough for them

01:49to, you know, climb up the standings from what we saw last week. I get it. They've had, you know,

01:53three wins against top 25 teams, six wins against bowl eligible opponents, but I just, you know,

02:00I haven't been a big fan of this format, Donnie, as we've highlighted over the last couple of weeks

02:04there, so I don't mind what we see from the top four, but it's a little tough takeaway, I guess,

02:11that the old Crimson's might have just rattled straight back up into this thing. It's got me

02:15thinking, and is it the ratings? Is it the strength of schedule? Is it the conference you're

02:21playing in? There's still a lot to take away. I know it's your favorite TV show on a Tuesday night,

02:26Donnie, but it's got the voice fired up here on a Wednesday.
