00:00It's the college football playoff live from Oregon, 7.30 p.m.

00:03That's James Madison going out west to take on Oregon.

00:06The line opened up around 20 and a half points, Joe.

00:08Most outlets are north of that now at 21 and a half,

00:12and a total of 50 and a half JMU in the college football playoff.

00:16Some say they shouldn't be there.

00:18Well, they're here taking on Oregon.

00:19What's that spread line, Joe?

00:21Well, Donnie, I mean, pay attention to this game

00:23because this is likely the game that will alter the qualification rules

00:29for the college football playoff moving forward,

00:32especially when JMU likely gets run out of the building here,

00:39and that is likely what is going to happen here.

00:42And look at the markets here, Donnie.

00:43We saw this open 20 and a half, which is we were all scratching our head going,

00:48how are the 12 best?

00:49How do we have any games over a touchdown lined over a touchdown

00:54and expect us to believe that these are the 12 best teams in the country?

00:57Nope, it's not.

00:59And while congratulations, not taking anything away from JMU,

01:02the market tends to agree with what I'm saying here, Donnie,

01:06because we're now up to what, 21 and a half, 22 and a half.

01:10This thing is likely going up, I believe, Donnie, to 23, 23 and a half,

01:15maybe even 24 before it's all said and done.

01:17The total, though, is kind of stuck at 50 and a half,

01:20but we all know what's going to happen there.

01:22We are going to see that over money start trickling in

01:25as we get a little bit closer to this game.

01:27But for right now, congrats, JMU.

01:31But moving forward, the group of five, yeah,

01:34we won't be seeing teams or matchups like this, I think, any longer.

01:37We'll see you next time.
