00:00We want to know who Morenzi likes in the National Semi-Finals next week on Thursday and Friday.

00:05Well, we still have time to really break it down and make our final decisions, but normally

00:13your initial gut instinct is the way to go.

00:16And I'm not saying this because this is what we saw last, but I think Notre Dame will get

00:24by Penn State.

00:26Really, are we going to end up with an all-Big Ten final?

00:30And even though I'm a Michigan fan and it somewhat pains me, yes and no, because even

00:34if Ohio State win the championship, they didn't beat Michigan, and it's going to bother them.

00:38So even though they win, Ryan Day will be standing up there getting the trophy and it'll

00:43still eat him alive.

00:45So that's my consolation, but I don't see how anyone stops Ohio State at this point.

00:52They are the most talented football team.

00:53They're the deepest team of all these teams left.

00:56Notre Dame and Penn State are so similar.

00:59They both have really, really good defenses.

01:02I don't know whose defense is better.

01:03I think Notre Dame's defense is awesome.

01:06I think Penn State's defense is top tier as well.

01:10Both their offenses, I mean, let's not kid ourselves.

01:14Notre Dame didn't do much against Indiana on offense.

01:18They had the 98-yard touchdown run.

01:20They've been good at maximizing their big plays and then sort of coasting after.

01:25What did they do yesterday?

01:26I mean, that football game turned.

01:27It was 6-3.

01:28If Georgia just hands the ball off, goes to the half, 6-3, who knows what happens.

01:32Instead, you get a quick 17-point swing in like a minute, and it just turned the football

01:38game upside down.

01:39There's no excuses.

01:40They were the better team than Georgia.

01:42But in the big picture, I think Ohio State are going to be the ones that win the national

01:48championship.

01:49I think they're going to beat Texas.

01:50Yeah, they're like an NFL team.

01:51They're like an NFL team.

01:52Yeah, they're loaded.

01:53They have the best roster, and there's something about Michigan.

01:56I told you, Scott, and we've talked about this.

01:58I've talked about this for years.

02:00Michigan get in their head so much.

02:02When they play other teams, they just play football, right?

02:05They just play football.

02:06They don't get nervous.

02:07They don't get uptight, and you see what happens.

02:10They just roll you, right?

02:11I mean, and they're so deep as well.

02:14I mean, you've got Junkins.

02:15You've got Tre'Bjorn Henderson.

02:17You've got Jeremiah Smith, who's unstoppable.

02:20Their defense is elite, right?

02:23There's nothing really not to like about them, and people criticize Ryan Day for not being

02:27able to beat Michigan, but Ryan Day is a good football coach.

02:30He doesn't lose a lot of games.

02:32So they're two wins away.

02:33I'm hard-pressed to believe that Ohio State aren't the ones hoisting the trophies.
