00:00But I got to tell you, there is something special about these early season matchups that get you so, so excited.
00:05Like in the past, we've seen it so many times at the Miami-Florida State games that used to play on Labor Day weekend were absolutely spectacular.
00:11One of those games in overtime, Frank Gore rumbling into the ends and like sets up your entire season for success against a rival.
00:18But understand this, you do get some brownie points for loading up early in the season.
00:22And even if you take a loss, you can recover.
00:25And the polls will find kindly on that because they'll go, well, hey, look, one verse two, one verse three, one verse four in the preseason are basically week zero, week one.
00:32You lose that, you can rebound.
00:34In the past, you couldn't do that.
00:35And we're going to get a spectacular game, Joe, right off the start with Texas and Ohio State.
00:42And Ohio State is going to be at home in the horseshoe, a slight favorite over number one, Texas.
00:46The total is 47 and a half.
00:48Intrigue all the way around.
00:49Like, you could just dive right back into college football immediately and sink your teeth into an absolute thriller for what we're expecting.
00:57Yeah.
00:58I mean, listen, it wasn't like Texas didn't have some success, right?
01:03In its infancy here in the SEC.
01:06Now they're the number one team in the country preseason-wise.
01:11And that carries a lot of weight, you know.
01:13But with that comes a lot of expectations, Donnie.
01:17And that Texas fan base might be one of the most unrealistic, unselfaware fan bases that you will ever see every year, though.
01:28Like, you know, like many schools, though.
01:29But Texas is over the top.
01:31And anybody that has seen the locker room renovations at Texas, have you seen those, Donnie, with what they know?
01:39They've got better luxuries than NFL locker rooms right now at Texas.
01:44There is a lot, I mean, a lot of pressure for this University of Texas football team to come out hot on the road in one of the hardest places to play in the country, at Ohio State at the shoe, and come out and dominate them, the champions.
02:01Good luck here.
02:02Can the Longhorns deal with all the pressure that comes with being number one is going to be what I'm interested to see.
02:09Good luck here.
