00:00SMU in that ridiculous schedule where they played nobody, beat nobody, and beat a football

00:11team, or excuse me, a team that beat them, average at best.

00:15And you're telling me if they lose to Clemson, who already has multiple losses, they're getting

00:19in?

00:20Stop it.

00:21There's no way the committee has that.

00:23Not a single shot the committee is going to let Alabama in the SEC, who knocks off title

00:28contenders week after week, oh, but they lost this.

00:31You know what?

00:32I had this opinion this morning.

00:37Let's really play like devil's advocate.

00:39How about this season?

00:40Put Alabama in the ACC.

00:44Alabama's unbeaten this year and ranked number one in the country right now.

00:50That's the truth.

00:51But they don't play in the ACC.

00:53They play in the SEC.

00:54And in the past, we'll be like, oh, we'll give them the benefit of the doubt if both

00:57teams have the same record the SEC goes on.

00:59That used to be the way it was.

01:01Now we're opening Pandora's box and rightfully so by going, well, aren't we designed or supposed

01:05to get the best 12 teams in here outside of the automatic bids?

01:09Yes.

01:10And it is a business.

01:14If you are a business owner and somebody walks in and lays out a format by goes, this team

01:19is better.

01:21They make the tournament.

01:22More people will watch.

01:23Your business will make more money.

01:26That's happening.

01:28That's serious.

01:29That's happening.

01:30That's what I'm telling you with games and teams like Alabama and SMU.

01:35Good story, SMU, win your conference, get in.

01:38I have no argument.

01:41You lose with that schedule with two losses that equates to six SEC losses.

01:47Get them out of the picture.

01:48It's a wrap.

01:49We don't hear about an SMU anymore, but they made the conference championship game.

01:53They wouldn't be sniffing a conference championship game if they played in the SEC.

01:57That's the point.
