00:00All right, weekend's best, weekend's worst.

00:05I'll start with my weekend.

00:08I'm going to go worst.

00:09I'll start my weekend's worst.

00:13Kevin Stefanski.

00:16What was that?

00:19My man's fool's Shadur Sanders, who, listen, he made a critical mistake on a bad pick.

00:27But he is what?

00:28I think threw three touchdowns, ran one in, or threw two touchdowns, ran one in.

00:32No, it's three.

00:33Threw three, ran one in.

00:33Yeah, that's right.

00:34He threw the last one.

00:35A four-total touchdown, 370 yards.

00:36Yeah.

00:37Here you go.

00:37Down two.

00:39Two-point conversion.

00:41Right?

00:41In previous drive, he had run one in when the play broke down for about 10 yards out.

00:46Here we go.

00:48Hey, Shadur, I want you to come off the field here.

00:52Let's run this wildcat that we've been doing all the time.

00:55And then try to do a reverse.

00:57Mind you, the person he tried to do the reverse with is somebody that hadn't really practiced it

01:05because their other player was injured with a concussion.

01:08So this was somebody else that wasn't really the person they had practiced this play with.

01:14And they take Shadur off the bench, and they end up losing to the Titans.

01:18And, I mean, just the worst.

01:21Just the worst.

01:22And that whole handling of the situation.

01:26And, listen, I'm sure Kevin Stefanski is a good guy.

01:29But he just, there continues to just be coincidences that make it seem like,

01:34what in the hell is going on around there?

01:36Like, it is hard for me to be convinced, like,

01:39man, he's 100% about the best interests of the team and the players.

01:43Well, the one good thing, Ron, is he's been consistent.

01:46But, I mean, let's be honest.

01:48I mean, they've all been bad since he's been there.

01:50How many quarterbacks have they been through, you know?

01:52Yeah.

01:52And what a day.

01:53I didn't watch the game, but what a day for that defense that typically,

01:57or at least has the ability to wreck shop to not wreck shop.

02:00Quarterback scores four touchdowns and throws three 70s.

02:04And you can't win behind that.

02:05Yeah, that's wild, man.

02:06Yeah, but for him to not at least be on the field for the two-point conversion

02:10was just wild.

02:12Wild to me.

02:14For me, man, Ron, I've always, I hate the thought of taking my quarterback

02:19off the field in critical situations.

02:21Absolutely hate it.

02:22I got a guy out there that I believe in leading my team.

02:24This is my guy.

02:25This is my face.

02:26This is my leader.

02:27The voice of my squad.

02:28Games on the line.

02:29He just threw a dot.

02:30Games on the line.

02:31I'm still on the sideline.

02:32I mean, I got something creative I want to get out there.

02:34Yeah, that's what he wanted to go.

02:36Right now to go get it.

02:37So that's my weekend's worst.

02:38What's your weekend's worst?

02:39Well, my weekend's worst has to do with what you mentioned a little earlier,

02:43college football playoffs.

02:44And actually, more specifically, it has to do with conference championships.

02:50Unfortunately, I think conference championships are going to be a thing of the past.

02:56And I think it's unfortunate.

02:58I'm not going to sit here and tell you,

03:00I don't know the right way to handle conference championships.

03:04But I know playing for an SEC title, playing for a Big 12 championship,

03:10playing for a Big 10 championship, I know that should mean something.

03:14And the fact that the college football playoff committee, you know,

03:18just can't figure out a way to either make those games mean something,

03:22make everybody else play one game like Vanderbilt has been petitioning to.

03:26So everybody plays the same number of games and you evaluate them just like you do anything else.

03:31Or they just don't mean anything.

03:33And the final standings the week before the college football playoffs are what they are.

03:38But, boy, the college football playoffs was bad this weekend with JMU and Tulane getting in.

03:48But, boy, the conference championships, I think, are the big loser here, Ron.

03:51And, I mean, I think there's a real chance that we see these guys do away with conference championships.

03:56It was definitely going to be one if Alabama didn't get in.

03:59Yeah.

03:59If Alabama didn't get in and got punished for playing another game, that definitely would have been.

04:03Well, you got what's going on with Notre Dame.

04:05Well, it's not just the conference championships, but it's also how they determine who gets there.

04:08Like, Duke should have never been in that game.

04:10Never been in that game.

04:11Right, right, correct.

04:12And I think Notre Dame would have gotten in if Miami was in that game and they were the champions.

04:17Well, it's easier to say, you know, no more championship games than it is to figure out what to do with Notre Dame,

04:24who's not in the conference, and there is no conference championship game, right?

04:28Who, by the way, I don't know if y'all saw that, but I believe they signed a contract with the college football playoff committee

04:33that if they're in the final 12, they're automatically in.

04:35They get an automatic bid.

04:36Yeah, yeah, that's it.

04:37That's odd, isn't it?

04:38It's a bit odd in my opinion.

04:39But I don't know all the details, so I'll wait to flush it out.

04:44But conference championships, man, I just think Texas Tech blows the doors off of BYU.

04:51Georgia blows the doors start to finish off of Alabama.

04:55You know, you look up the Ohio State-Indiana game was a tremendous game.

04:58Indiana, they proved they've got the horses, I think, to compete,

05:02whereas last year I don't think they had the horses.

05:03This year they do.

05:05So I just think we've seen the last of conference championships.

05:09All right, weekend's best.

05:11I'm going to change mine because you just brought that up.

05:14But LeBron was sensational last night, so I'll change mine from LeBron.

05:19I mean, just down the stretch, big shots back at it, 29 points last night.

05:24But you talked about the conference champions.

05:27I do want to give a shout-out to Indiana.

05:29Kurt Senzetti, that is deep.

05:32I used to think Bill Snyder was the best coaching job, how he resurrected K-State.

05:38What he's done this fast, I don't care about how the transfer portal,

05:43there's still some Indiana getting guys in before.

05:46He got a lot of those James Madison kids that are there,

05:49and they are the number one seed Big Ten champions.

05:54Tyler, when were you born?

05:55What's your date of birth?

05:571990.

05:57They hadn't beat Ohio State since 88.

06:02Tyler just turned 35.

06:03They hadn't beat Ohio State since 1988.

06:06And they play often.

06:08They play every year up in the Big Ten.

06:10So that turnaround is, I heard Urban Meyer say it,

06:16the best turnaround in the history of college football.

06:18And it is.

06:20Insane what he's been able to do.

06:22And they've had multiple quarterbacks.

06:23A via Scott Van Pelt.

06:26Indiana had the all-time lowest winning percentage in college football history

06:29when Kurt Signetti arrived.

06:31When he got on the mic at Assembly Hall and started saying everyone in the Big Ten sucked,

06:36I thought they hired a crazy man.

06:38This is crazy.

06:38Incredible turnaround.

06:40Salute Hoosiers.

06:41Yep.

06:41I mean, that's...

06:41Now they have the second.

06:42From literally the worst to...

06:43Second worst.

06:44Now they got the second worst.

06:45Since he's in his two years.

06:46Yeah.

06:47That's insane.

06:48All right, your weekend's...

06:49I'm going to go my weekend's best.

06:51I'm going to go with Texas Tech linebacker.

06:53Jacob Rodriguez.

06:55I don't know if y'all saw this, but on College Game Day,

06:56one thing that Pat McAfee has done is he ain't afraid to give away several hundred thousand dollars

07:02on one episode of College Game Day.

07:05They're interviewing Texas Tech linebacker Jacob Rodriguez on the field during warm-ups.

07:09His own warm-ups it is.

07:11And he's got the earpiece in.

07:12And Pat McAfee says, hey man, if you can hit the uprights,

07:18I'll give you $250,000 to donate to a military foundation of your choice.

07:23And he just cool, calm, collected.

07:25He said, oh yeah, I'm cool with that.

07:26Where are you going to throw it from?

07:28He said, how about the 20?

07:29And he center punches that damn crossbar from the 20-yard line.

07:32If you hadn't followed, this is a great story.

07:34Texas Tech is a great story overall, especially if you're a Texan.

07:38But the story of this linebacker Jacob Rodriguez is a really cool story.

07:43His wife apparently is a Blackhawk helicopter pilot in the military.

07:48And she gets a chance to come to every game.

07:51He goes over, hugs and kisses her, yada, yada, yada.

07:54So that's kind of the tie of the military foundation that he's donating to.

07:57But for a linebacker to just go, hey yeah, man, cool, I'm good with it.

08:01And then he bangs it off the upright and goes over there and celebrates with his guys.

08:06Hell, I think you ought to draft the guy right now.

08:08Linebacker can throw it off the upright, cool, calm, and collected the whole time for 250 stacks.

08:13He caught us off guard.

08:13Because during game day, he was talking, he made a mistake in his words.

08:20But he said, yeah, me and my wife, we've been married 10 years.

08:24I said, 10 years?

08:26Man, you're like 22 years old.

08:30He meant to say 10 months.

08:31Oh, 10 months.

08:32But he said 10 years.

08:34Multiple times.

08:35I said, there ain't no way.

08:37All right, what you got coming up?
