00:00You take a look at college football now, eyes on the prize with 24 teams.
00:03And I love it because it's not the fact that, hey, you know, you're going to let mediocre teams in.
00:08I don't care about that.
00:09The thing that was when I was growing up in the 80s and 90s, bowl season was a big deal.
00:12It's clear it's not a big deal anymore.
00:13The players don't want it.
00:15Meaningless football games.
00:16I can't stand it.
00:17So now we're going to 24.
00:18But it includes, Kevin, the chance that now we're going to eliminate all of the college football championship division games,
00:24or should I say league games, which I like.
00:26Because the question came up last year, as it usually does now, is it used to be win that
00:30and get into the college football playoff with a chance in the BCS or one through four teams.
00:34Now we're at the point, Kevin, we watched the SEC championship game last year and go,
00:38well, I don't think you can hold it against Alabama because they made it there and got smoked.
00:43They still should be in.
00:44That sent the white flag up that goes, these need to end.
00:48And I'm here for it, Kevin.
00:49I like it.
00:50Yeah, the conference championship games are awful.
00:56And absolutely, to your point, Donnie, need to end.
01:01I've never seen anything with more hypocrisy tied to it where people said,
01:07you can't keep Bama out, right, because we want these games to matter.
01:15Hold on a minute now.
01:16Hold on a second.
01:18That doesn't add up.
01:20That isn't true.
01:21If the game matters, then we absolutely can keep them out for it.
01:26And as far as expansion goes, look, some sports are getting crazy.
01:30I know, Donnie, you're pro kind of expansion everywhere.
01:33College football last season, I can credibly argue, in their current format,
01:40didn't have not, oh, like the eighth best team missed.
01:44No, no.
01:44The third best team in the country, in the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, third best,
01:51third, didn't make the college football playoff.
01:53And by the way, the team most people thought they should be in over.
01:59I agreed with Donnie.
02:00Notre Dame should have been in over Bama.
02:01But most people thought if Notre Dame's in, it means Miami was out.
02:04Miami was in the national championship game pushing the unbeaten Indiana Hoosiers.
02:10So, yes, we have room for more in college football.
02:13Some other sports, maybe not.
02:14Yes, in college football.
