- 1:08Speaker 2: Five o'clock here on a Thursday evening, Chip Howard Sports
- 1:13Speaker 2: Talk on the Zone eleven fifty A ninety three points
- 1:15Speaker 2: seven FM. It is quittin time. Caleb Rapley here hosting
- 1:20Speaker 2: today alongside Andrew Rapsolver, Stan on the ones and twos
- 1:24Speaker 2: Riley in the producer's chair outside the studio. And it's
- 1:29Speaker 2: time for kind of a continuation of what we did
- 1:32Speaker 2: yesterday in the five o'clock hour, predicting the SEC conference
- 1:37Speaker 2: for college football. Today, we're going to predict conference champions
- 1:43Speaker 2: for each of the power conferences, and then Andrew and
- 1:46Speaker 2: I are going to set a twelve team playoff field.
- 1:51Speaker 2: So we're going to start conference by conference, beginning with
- 1:55Speaker 2: the ACC just alphabetical order, make it easy. And this
- 2:00Speaker 2: is one where you know, there's there's a clear number
- 2:05Speaker 2: one in Miami. I think everybody can admit that they're
- 2:08Speaker 2: the favorite. They are, they're the fa.
- 2:13Speaker 4: Uh sarcasm, They're sorry, got it?
- 2:17Speaker 2: You know. I would really love, especially this season, if
- 2:20Speaker 2: Notre Dame was actually in this conference.
- 2:21Speaker 4: Because it would be a lot of fun, fantastic.
- 2:23Speaker 2: But unfortunately that's not the case. It basically is because
- 2:26Speaker 2: they play what like six ACC games.
- 2:28Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a whole nother thing.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Yeah, Notre Dame. Yeah if they were, if they were
- 2:33Speaker 2: in the in the ACC, it would be a lot
- 2:36Speaker 2: of fun. But regardless, Miami is the favorite. They're the
- 2:38Speaker 2: number one, and then you have kind of like four
- 2:42Speaker 2: teams maybe five teams, and that next tier of trying
- 2:45Speaker 2: to jump up and get Miami. And the funny thing is,
- 2:48Speaker 2: with all this talk about Miami being the favorite, they
- 2:50Speaker 2: didn't even make the conference championship game last year because
- 2:54Speaker 2: of tiebreaker shenanigans.
- 2:56Speaker 4: All of that.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what happens when you have an uneven a
- 2:59Speaker 2: number of team teams in your conference and some teams
- 3:01Speaker 2: play nine games and some teams play eight. It's ridiculous
- 3:04Speaker 2: that this is even a thing that they have to
- 3:06Speaker 2: deal with.
- 3:07Speaker 4: That's another absurdity for sure.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's not really much you can do about
- 3:11Speaker 2: it other than you could just count Notre Dame games
- 3:13Speaker 2: as conference games. Oh you know, I mean lot of
- 3:16Speaker 2: novel concept that is whatever. Anyway, So, yeah, they didn't
- 3:22Speaker 2: get to play in the conference championship game because the
- 3:24Speaker 2: ACC is dumb. Anyway, they are the favorite, and then
- 3:29Speaker 2: I think the next tier is SMU Louisville. Honestly, actually
- 3:34Speaker 2: might just be SMU Louisville and then the rest. So, Andrew,
- 3:39Speaker 2: now that I've yapped about the ACC for four minutes,
- 3:42Speaker 2: who do you have winning the conference?
- 3:43Speaker 4: I have Miami over SMU, And like you mentioned, Miami
- 3:48Speaker 4: clear favorite and everything they've they've gotten to last year
- 3:51Speaker 4: and now coming into this year, that's going to stay
- 3:53Speaker 4: more of the same. But do you look at SMU's
- 3:55Speaker 4: schedule in the biggest games that stand out to me
- 3:58Speaker 4: against them the Louisville, of course, Notre Dame in Virginia,
- 4:03Speaker 4: There's not a crazy difficult schedule on their end, and
- 4:07Speaker 4: I think that they really could have some success getting
- 4:09Speaker 4: the ACC title game. Once you get to the conference
- 4:12Speaker 4: title game, you don't know what happens, You never know
- 4:14Speaker 4: what can happen. So I think they'll be the second spot. Louisville,
- 4:18Speaker 4: as you mentioned, I think is going to be very well,
- 4:21Speaker 4: could be that SMU Louisville game decides exactly that who's
- 4:26Speaker 4: going to be second place, So that's kind of I
- 4:29Speaker 4: do think SMU will be the second spot though.
- 4:32Speaker 2: Yeah, and SMU and Miami do not have to play
- 4:35Speaker 2: this year. Which is another big domino to fall in
- 4:42Speaker 2: them both getting to the conference championship game gives them
- 4:46Speaker 2: both an opportunity to have better records, and they also
- 4:50Speaker 2: the funny thing is is that they're both playing nine
- 4:52Speaker 2: conference games this year, and they're also both playing Notre Dame.
- 4:55Speaker 2: So I don't understand why why like Georgia Tech, for example,
- 5:01Speaker 2: only plays eight conference games this year, why don't they
- 5:03Speaker 2: play Notre Dame. It would make so much more sense
- 5:05Speaker 2: if they just added Notre Dame as a conference team. Sorry,
- 5:10Speaker 2: I'm gonna stop doing that. That's the last time I promise.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Is it?
- 5:13Speaker 2: Is it the last time we still have I'm going
- 5:15Speaker 2: to break fifty men, I'm going to break that promise
- 5:17Speaker 2: the next fifty five minutes, probably five or six times.
- 5:19Speaker 2: But I agree with you. I do think those are
- 5:22Speaker 2: the top two teams. I really like SMU. I was
- 5:25Speaker 2: tempted to just pick them, just to not pick the favorite,
- 5:28Speaker 2: but I mean it's Miami, especially, you know, still having
- 5:32Speaker 2: Malachi Tony, one of the most talented players in the nation,
- 5:36Speaker 2: and then adding arguably the top transfer quarterback that might
- 5:41Speaker 2: be a little controversial, and Darien Mensa coming over from
- 5:43Speaker 2: Duke after he threw for almost four thousand yards last year,
- 5:48Speaker 2: led them to a conference title game, conference championship. That's hilarious.
- 5:52Speaker 2: The Duke is the ACC championshipeah.
- 5:54Speaker 4: That's gonna be one of the more forgotten moments. Yeah,
- 5:58Speaker 4: it's gonna be one of those. Definitely a CC one,
- 6:01Speaker 4: forget about it. That's going to be an ESPN Jeopardy
- 6:03Speaker 4: Joe Buck question at some point, I guarantee it.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Because Duke is tenth in the ACC preseason poll.
- 6:11Speaker 4: That's amazing. That is amazing, isn't it. This is the
- 6:16Speaker 4: world that we live in.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Seventeen teams in this conference. And for those of y'all
- 6:21Speaker 2: who haven't seen the ACC preseason poll, the number seventeen
- 6:24Speaker 2: team was Stanford and they did get one first place vote,
- 6:28Speaker 2: So watch out for the cardinal.
- 6:30Speaker 4: There you go.
- 6:31Speaker 2: One vote, one vote. That's more than eighty points. Baby.
- 6:35Speaker 2: So yeah, I have Miami over SMU, same as you.
- 6:40Speaker 2: And then my my third team that I like. I'm
- 6:44Speaker 2: high on Georgia Tech. I think they are going to
- 6:46Speaker 2: still have success despite losing Haines King. It should be
- 6:49Speaker 2: interesting year in the ACC.
- 6:51Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I agree with that. Georgia Tech too. I
- 6:54Speaker 4: still I think I'm a little more confident in Louisville.
- 6:57Speaker 4: But that's fair, you know, George tick I can make
- 7:00Speaker 4: some noise still too.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Right, all right, so we both have Miami over SMU
- 7:05Speaker 2: and the ACC. Moving on to the Big twelve now,
- 7:10Speaker 2: and you could argue that that's not alphabetical order, but
- 7:13Speaker 2: I I would like to delay talking about the Big
- 7:15Speaker 2: ten as long as possible because I'm petty like that.
- 7:18Speaker 4: I said alphabetical, not numerical. So we were doing sure,
- 7:23Speaker 4: yeah ten, yeah, yeah, gone to twelve instead of.
- 7:25Speaker 2: You're trying to an aggie about alphabetical numerical order right now. Man,
- 7:28Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't. I don't got it. Sorry,
- 7:31Speaker 2: You're you're Houston knowledge is okay? Too much for me?
- 7:34Speaker 4: Something like that.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Yeah, But the Big twelve and another team, another conference
- 7:39Speaker 2: with a clear, clear favorite, you know, not quite as
- 7:45Speaker 2: clear as it was three months ago before they lost
- 7:50Speaker 2: their quarterback. But Texas Tech is still the number one,
- 7:53Speaker 2: the big dog, the boogeyman of the Big twelve. They
- 7:59Speaker 2: are far away the favorites to win even without Brandon
- 8:02Speaker 2: Brendan Soresby. They're they're still the team to beat. And
- 8:06Speaker 2: it's not really close. And I hope that Will Hammond
- 8:13Speaker 2: is healthy just because I am interested to see him play.
- 8:15Speaker 2: I think he will be pretty solid. I don't know
- 8:17Speaker 2: if he's going to be fully healthy for the start
- 8:18Speaker 2: of the season, but well, by the time it matters,
- 8:23Speaker 2: you know, he will be that. He will be under
- 8:26Speaker 2: center for the Red Raiders and they they do have,
- 8:31Speaker 2: you know, an early test. Week three against Houston. I
- 8:35Speaker 2: think is going to be a very very important game
- 8:38Speaker 2: for them. I think that might be possibly that. I mean,
- 8:43Speaker 2: it's definitely the most important game on their schedule, the
- 8:45Speaker 2: toughest by far for them.
- 8:47Speaker 4: It's the most important game on houston schedule.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Yeah, it might be the number one game, like in
- 8:53Speaker 2: all of the Big Twelve this year.
- 8:54Speaker 4: Yeah, and I I'd love to see Houston pull out
- 8:59Speaker 4: the fall out of that with a win, and that'd
- 9:00Speaker 4: be fantastic because the homer in me. But that's yeah,
- 9:03Speaker 4: I think it's going to be. I think Houston will
- 9:05Speaker 4: be a little bit better for sure. And you know,
- 9:08Speaker 4: I do think the Texas Tech is is the clear
- 9:10Speaker 4: favorite in the conference. Do you want to go with
- 9:12Speaker 4: the game prediction.
- 9:13Speaker 2: Of the Yeah, I mean title game. I it's Texas
- 9:17Speaker 2: Tech's winning it. Let's let's be realistic here. I mean,
- 9:20Speaker 2: as much as I would love to pick somebody else,
- 9:22Speaker 2: it's Texas Tech, my my number two team. You know,
- 9:27Speaker 2: might raise some eyebrows, especially in this room. I think
- 9:30Speaker 2: it's Houston.
- 9:32Speaker 4: Oh wow, I like the wow.
- 9:33Speaker 2: I'm okay, very high on Houston under Willie Fritz. Ten
- 9:39Speaker 2: and three last year. Very that was a lot of
- 9:43Speaker 2: improvement after going four and eight and twenty twenty four,
- 9:47Speaker 2: yea six win improvement. And Connor Wegman is back for
- 9:51Speaker 2: one more ride. And Connor Wigman is one of those
- 9:55Speaker 2: guys that I just kind of have an emotional attachment
- 9:57Speaker 2: to because of the way it ended at Texas a them,
- 10:00Speaker 2: I just it was very unfortunate, and I don't think
- 10:02Speaker 2: it was fully his fault. Especially as a true freshman.
- 10:06Speaker 2: He showed a lot of flashes. I was so excited
- 10:08Speaker 2: for him when we first got him signed and on campus.
- 10:12Speaker 2: I thought he was going to be the next the
- 10:14Speaker 2: next big name, and it just didn't. It didn't turn
- 10:17Speaker 2: out that way. After the Notre Dame game in twenty
- 10:21Speaker 2: twenty four, which and you know, it came out after
- 10:25Speaker 2: the fact that he was sick the whole time. And
- 10:28Speaker 2: shouldn't have played. I don't understand why we didn't put
- 10:30Speaker 2: in Marcel Reed in that game, and I never it
- 10:32Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense to me. But ends up at
- 10:37Speaker 2: Houston and saw a lot of success last season, and
- 10:42Speaker 2: I think they're in position for a lot more this year.
- 10:44Speaker 4: I think Houston you do bring a great point with
- 10:48Speaker 4: that and their schedule included. But last year they lost
- 10:53Speaker 4: mightily in a couple of games that they really should
- 10:55Speaker 4: have won and it was not even close, and it
- 10:58Speaker 4: was that's fair, and so their one big loss was
- 11:01Speaker 4: against Texas Tech. But they really could have been in
- 11:05Speaker 4: contention last year to be one of those top two
- 11:08Speaker 4: seeds to go to or to get close to the
- 11:12Speaker 4: conference title game. Give them just off a record alone.
- 11:15Speaker 4: They were ranked there for I believe one or two
- 11:18Speaker 4: weeks right there at the bottom at twenty five. But
- 11:22Speaker 4: it's it's gonna be some hopefully some excitement from h
- 11:26Speaker 4: Town this year. We'll see. I think b YU will
- 11:31Speaker 4: be the second team.
- 11:32Speaker 2: I think that's probably the the more consensus favorite to
- 11:37Speaker 2: be be the other team in the conference championship game.
- 11:41Speaker 4: So yeah, that's not an exactly exciting prediction. I just
- 11:44Speaker 4: think that's probably the most sort of realistic, so potentially.
- 11:48Speaker 2: Yeah, here's my question about BYU. Do you think they
- 11:50Speaker 2: have the juice to take down Notre Dame because they
- 11:54Speaker 2: that's they have a home game against the fighting Irish
- 11:56Speaker 2: week seven.
- 11:57Speaker 4: It's enough into the season to where I think both
- 12:01Speaker 4: teams get fully developed. So for that reason, I say no.
- 12:05Speaker 4: I think you look at if that game was, for
- 12:07Speaker 4: whatever reason, week two, when you're still getting loose and
- 12:12Speaker 4: trying to find yourself and find your identity, I think
- 12:15Speaker 4: you'd have a lot better chance. I do think the
- 12:18Speaker 4: Irish will still be fairly strong, and then you get
- 12:22Speaker 4: to week seven, that's starting to get right into the
- 12:23Speaker 4: sweet spot of the season, and I do think Notre
- 12:27Speaker 4: Dame will be probably be just fine.
- 12:29Speaker 2: So you have Texas Tech over BYU, Yes, which is
- 12:32Speaker 2: a repeat of last year, right correct? Okay, So I
- 12:36Speaker 2: think BYU is in the next group of just missing
- 12:39Speaker 2: it for me along with Utah, And I think a
- 12:43Speaker 2: lot of people really like Utah to be the second
- 12:47Speaker 2: team behind Texas Tech. I just they've never really shown
- 12:50Speaker 2: the ability to get it done when it matters the most,
- 12:54Speaker 2: and they really only have two games on their schedule
- 12:59Speaker 2: that is going to determine whether or not they make
- 13:02Speaker 2: it in if they take care business in ten of
- 13:04Speaker 2: the twelve games, it's gonna come down to can they
- 13:08Speaker 2: beat Houston and can they beat BYU And they get
- 13:10Speaker 2: both of those at home, so they have it's all
- 13:14Speaker 2: lined up for Utah, But can they take it? And
- 13:18Speaker 2: I don't think they can honestly, They've just they never have.
- 13:21Speaker 4: Yeah, it's hard to make a prediction when there's not
- 13:24Speaker 4: much of a track record to go off of in
- 13:26Speaker 4: terms of success. And yeah, I think that's that's kind
- 13:30Speaker 4: of where that where that leads. So I see exactly
- 13:33Speaker 4: what you're saying.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Yeah, A couple other teams that I'm really excited to
- 13:36Speaker 2: watch this year in the Big twelve are the two
- 13:41Speaker 2: you know, big name coaching hires, Kansas State bringing in
- 13:45Speaker 2: Colin Klein and Oklahoma State bringing in Eric Morris. I
- 13:51Speaker 2: think both of those teams are going to be very
- 13:54Speaker 2: interesting to watch. I don't know how much success they're
- 13:57Speaker 2: gonna have. I mean, I went through in predict to
- 14:00Speaker 2: all these just to get an idea of what it
- 14:02Speaker 2: would look like. I think Kansas State and Oklahoma State
- 14:04Speaker 2: are both going to be right in there in the mix.
- 14:07Speaker 2: I know, I think they're gonna be a few steps behind.
- 14:09Speaker 4: But Oklahoma State will absolutely make some noise. I talked
- 14:14Speaker 4: about it yesterday with UNT football, the high flying offense
- 14:18Speaker 4: with Drew Mestamaker run by Eric Morris, and that road
- 14:22Speaker 4: show is going to to Oklahoma State. Now, I think, certainly,
- 14:27Speaker 4: at least on the offensive side of the ball, they
- 14:29Speaker 4: are going to make a ton of noise. Like he said,
- 14:33Speaker 4: not not going to be conference title game knocking on
- 14:36Speaker 4: the door for that, but just just watch this year.
- 14:40Speaker 4: I think I think there's gonna be They to me
- 14:43Speaker 4: have the potential to steal a couple of games. You
- 14:46Speaker 4: could potentially, you know, you know, defeat one of the
- 14:50Speaker 4: top teams in one of those one off games where
- 14:53Speaker 4: you go into Oklahoma State. So they they will make
- 14:56Speaker 4: some noise and just keep it something to put that
- 14:59Speaker 4: on the on the backburn the something to ponder on
- 15:01Speaker 4: file in the next couple of years of college football
- 15:03Speaker 4: is Oklahoma State I think is gonna start to get
- 15:05Speaker 4: pretty good.
- 15:06Speaker 2: Oklahoma State definitely has some really big games at home.
- 15:09Speaker 2: After the absolute drubbing that they took against Oregon last
- 15:13Speaker 2: year sixty nine to three on the road, they welcome
- 15:17Speaker 2: them into Boone Pickens Stadium Week two in still Water.
- 15:22Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be hilarious if Drew Mestamaker orchestrated a win
- 15:26Speaker 2: over the Ducks. Not gonna happen, but would be fun.
- 15:28Speaker 4: They can make it interesting.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think it will be much interesting that
- 15:31Speaker 2: most people are assuming it will be. They go on
- 15:35Speaker 2: the road to Houston and on the road to Kansas
- 15:38Speaker 2: State and they have Texas Tech at home.
- 15:41Speaker 4: As much as I hate to say it, I look
- 15:43Speaker 4: at you know, you talk about Houston, and I think
- 15:46Speaker 4: Houston will be potentially in those top few teams as
- 15:49Speaker 4: well on the Big Twelve. That is the perfect statement
- 15:54Speaker 4: sort of game early in the season for Oklahoma State.
- 15:56Speaker 4: Say we are here and this is what we're about
- 15:58Speaker 4: to go into Houston. Yeah, that's a very good opportunity
- 16:02Speaker 4: for that entire crew. And I think but still Water,
- 16:05Speaker 4: still Water better get ready. I think it's going to
- 16:07Speaker 4: be some exciting, exciting stuff going on there.
- 16:10Speaker 2: I agree, so recap on the Big Twelve. I have
- 16:14Speaker 2: Texas Tech over Houston, Andrew has Texas Tech over b Yu.
- 16:18Speaker 2: We both agree that Utah is overrated, you know, at
- 16:24Speaker 2: least in terms of making the conference championship. Yes, so
- 16:29Speaker 2: looking at the sp plus projections from Bill Connolly at ESPN,
- 16:33Speaker 2: he has Texas Tech and BYU and then Utah and
- 16:36Speaker 2: then the number four team in the SP plus is
- 16:38Speaker 2: Kansas State. So that'd be that's interesting.
- 16:42Speaker 4: That is very interesting.
- 16:44Speaker 2: Seeing them jump up that high in year one under
- 16:47Speaker 2: Colin Klein would be it'd be interesting. But we'll see.
- 16:51Speaker 2: I'm really high on Houston and I'm probably going to
- 16:54Speaker 2: be so wrong, but I'm very very exciting.
- 16:58Speaker 4: I love the enthusiasm though. I will take Houston love
- 17:01Speaker 4: any day. So this is a yeah, I appreciate it.
- 17:04Speaker 4: Did you save this topic for today so you could
- 17:07Speaker 4: you could talk about them and give some appreciation over
- 17:10Speaker 4: to Houston. So I do appreciate it.
- 17:12Speaker 2: So absolutely absolutely, they're They're not one of the teams
- 17:16Speaker 2: in the state that I have beef with.
- 17:18Speaker 4: That's fair.
- 17:19Speaker 2: I have beef with almost everybody else, but I don't
- 17:21Speaker 2: really have any beef with Houston.
- 17:22Speaker 4: That's for That's what I always hear, you know when
- 17:25Speaker 4: go through the University of Houston schools and it's well,
- 17:28Speaker 4: it's always A and m U T and then Houston's
- 17:31Speaker 4: kind of just like the the mediator, no one, No
- 17:34Speaker 4: one has. Yeah, the distant cousin that everyone just enjoys
- 17:37Speaker 4: hanging out with at Christmas and Thanksgiving, that nobody's got
- 17:40Speaker 4: any problems with them. He's cool.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Yeah, so no, we yeah, we like being there. We
- 17:44Speaker 2: have our our second cousin once removed with Texas Tech.
- 17:48Speaker 2: And then there's you know, your adopted brother and Baylor
- 17:52Speaker 2: that nobody likes you.
- 17:53Speaker 4: Yeah, and you start getting cousins once removed and all that,
- 17:56Speaker 4: you start to lose me. That's that's where I'm confused.
- 17:58Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, any So, that's gonna do it for
- 18:02Speaker 2: our Big twelve final Power Conference predictions here, and then
- 18:07Speaker 2: we will probably in the next segment do our college
- 18:10Speaker 2: football playoff seating. So the Big Ten, the conference that
- 18:17Speaker 2: has won the last three national championships, and you know,
- 18:24Speaker 2: I think probably three of the five three of the
- 18:28Speaker 2: five top teams in SP plus at least, So this
- 18:32Speaker 2: is definitely one that's gonna be very crucial for the
- 18:34Speaker 2: landscape of college football, landscape of the college football playoff?
- 18:38Speaker 2: How many teams are they going to get in the playoff?
- 18:41Speaker 2: But Andrew, I'll let you go first on this one.
- 18:44Speaker 2: Who do you have winning the Big.
- 18:45Speaker 4: Ten Ohio State over Oregon.
- 18:48Speaker 2: Oh okay, yes, so I'm with you on the Ohio State.
- 18:55Speaker 2: I think they're they're the favorite. Well, I don't know,
- 18:58Speaker 2: are they the favorite? I mean, they do the ranting
- 19:00Speaker 2: national champions there. I know they lost their quarterback, but
- 19:03Speaker 2: Indiana is still Indiana.
- 19:05Speaker 4: I get that, and I understand how dominant the Indiana
- 19:11Speaker 4: program was last year. That is, that whole entire season
- 19:15Speaker 4: was absolutely fantastic. No more Fernando Mendoza, though. You do wonder, surely,
- 19:23Speaker 4: and I know we've seen crazier things. That is it
- 19:27Speaker 4: gonna exactly replicate that exact same way going undefeated this year?
- 19:31Speaker 2: Probably not?
- 19:32Speaker 4: Yeah, probably not. And so you look at the the
- 19:35Speaker 4: top tier teams like Ohio State and Oregon, who are
- 19:37Speaker 4: consistently there. You know, Oregon in playoff time, it's a
- 19:41Speaker 4: different thing. Ohio State obviously champions, They've been there, done that.
- 19:45Speaker 4: I do tend to think that. I don't I think
- 19:49Speaker 4: any of is gonna make the playoff. I have them
- 19:51Speaker 4: making the playoff, but I think Ohio State will will
- 19:54Speaker 4: play Oregon in the Big Ten title game.
- 19:57Speaker 2: All right, So, yeah, Ohio State's the favorite. They are,
- 20:02Speaker 2: you know, I'm not gonna spoil anything, but I really
- 20:04Speaker 2: love the combination of talent that they have over there,
- 20:07Speaker 2: Julian saying, I think he kind of flew under the
- 20:10Speaker 2: radar last year, and you know, had one. I think
- 20:13Speaker 2: he had the highest completion percentage. I don't know if
- 20:17Speaker 2: it was a record, but I know it was number
- 20:19Speaker 2: one in the country. So he's a very efficient passer,
- 20:22Speaker 2: and with another year of experience under his belt, he's
- 20:25Speaker 2: going to be a force to be reckoned with as
- 20:28Speaker 2: long as he has Jeremiah Smith to throw to and
- 20:32Speaker 2: Bo Jackson the running backs no slatch as well. And
- 20:35Speaker 2: no it's not like Bo Jackson Junior or anything. His
- 20:37Speaker 2: name just happens to be Bo Jackson and he's a
- 20:40Speaker 2: good running back. That's the kind of wild But yeah,
- 20:44Speaker 2: I have Ohio State as well, my number two team.
- 20:47Speaker 2: I will not be betting against Kurt Signetti anytime soon.
- 20:51Speaker 2: I have the Indiana Hoosiers. I think Josh Hoover is
- 20:54Speaker 2: going to be I don't know if he's gonna be
- 20:57Speaker 2: f Nanda Mendoza, but I don't know that it matters
- 20:59Speaker 2: that much, I think sig I don't. I don't think
- 21:02Speaker 2: Indiana's gonna fall off much as long as he's the
- 21:04Speaker 2: coach there. So I have them going to the conference
- 21:06Speaker 2: championship game and losing to Ohio State. And we also
- 21:11Speaker 2: get to see Indiana versus Ohio State in Week seven.
- 21:14Speaker 2: That's gonna be awesome in Bloomington. So that's I love
- 21:18Speaker 2: that we have a lot of these big matchups in
- 21:20Speaker 2: the regular season as well, because a lot of times
- 21:24Speaker 2: conference championships don't live up to the hype, but the
- 21:26Speaker 2: regular season games, I feel like you usually do, I.
- 21:29Speaker 4: Know, and that's going to be exciting because we're in
- 21:31Speaker 4: a stage right now where we can see it on
- 21:34Speaker 4: the forefront. In just a few weeks time, we'll see
- 21:37Speaker 4: games like Michigan hosting Northwestern at eleven AM, and life
- 21:41Speaker 4: will be good. And then you see some of the
- 21:44Speaker 4: build up like that Week seven Ohio State Indiana. It's
- 21:48Speaker 4: got to be fantastic. But I have Ohio State Oregon.
- 21:51Speaker 4: I do want to clarify that before we had approached
- 21:55Speaker 4: this segment to one of the TVs here in the studio,
- 21:58Speaker 4: I saw Kurt Signetti doing at ESPN interview and seeing
- 22:03Speaker 4: him stare in my general direction through the stream really
- 22:08Speaker 4: really had me think about it should I put him
- 22:12Speaker 4: in over Oregon. Now as the second I'm just seeing
- 22:15Speaker 4: that look that was almost enough to be maybe I
- 22:18Speaker 4: should rethink this.
- 22:19Speaker 2: Well, the last time we saw coach Signetti, he was
- 22:23Speaker 2: the happiest we've ever seen him. He was smiling for
- 22:26Speaker 2: the first time in his life, I think the National
- 22:28Speaker 2: Championship game. And now he's back to peak. This is
- 22:32Speaker 2: the season form and you better watch out.
- 22:35Speaker 4: Yeah, I like you mentioned the first time you see
- 22:38Speaker 4: him smile, I would not be shocked if his like
- 22:40Speaker 4: eight year old birthday party pictures or him just with
- 22:42Speaker 4: that blank stamer still before blowing out the candles. You
- 22:45Speaker 4: don't ever see it. And so he is absolutely in
- 22:49Speaker 4: season mode right now. He is stone cold and we
- 22:54Speaker 4: haven't even hit August. So that's that's certainly sitting on
- 22:58Speaker 4: the back of my mind now as well. I wanted
- 23:00Speaker 4: to at least mention.
- 23:01Speaker 2: That, yeah, another team that I am high on and
- 23:04Speaker 2: think will be right there in the mix that some
- 23:07Speaker 2: people may be sleeping on a little bit. And it's nothing,
- 23:10Speaker 2: it's nothing too controversial. It's still it's the number four
- 23:13Speaker 2: team in the Big Ten according to spplus So like whatever, USC,
- 23:17Speaker 2: I think they're gonna I think they might surprise some
- 23:19Speaker 2: people this year with the combination of Jade and Mayava
- 23:23Speaker 2: having another season under Lincoln Riley and the Trojans bringing
- 23:28Speaker 2: in Gary Patterson to be their defensive coordinator. If they
- 23:31Speaker 2: have a competent defense, they're gonna be really good, yea,
- 23:34Speaker 2: because offense has never been a problem for them.
- 23:36Speaker 4: USC is definitely they pop up every now and then.
- 23:39Speaker 4: It's just one of those Hey watch out for them.
- 23:42Speaker 4: They're there. They could be it could be there that
- 23:45Speaker 4: maybe maybe not at the top, but they could certainly
- 23:47Speaker 4: make some noise. And it's it's that it's like the
- 23:52Speaker 4: the Olympics or the World Cup that happens every few
- 23:55Speaker 4: years and I'm not gonna say it's every four year specifically,
- 23:57Speaker 4: but it's it's one of those years. Again USC back
- 24:00Speaker 4: in the mix.
- 24:01Speaker 2: So the problem, the only problem with them, or the
- 24:03Speaker 2: main problem with them, is they have to play each
- 24:06Speaker 2: of Oregon, Ohio State, and Indiana this year. That's what
- 24:09Speaker 2: That's going to be the biggest hurdle for them for sure.
- 24:11Speaker 4: I think I think that's exactly what we'll do them
- 24:13Speaker 4: in because you look at those and I would not
- 24:15Speaker 4: be stunned if they didn't win a single one of.
- 24:17Speaker 2: Them, Yes, but if you do win one of those,
- 24:19Speaker 2: then you're in the playoff. Yeah, Samir, take care business
- 24:22Speaker 2: and the rest of your games.
- 24:23Speaker 4: You would think so. But then one of the things,
- 24:25Speaker 4: I know we'll talk about more with the CFP, but
- 24:27Speaker 4: it's one of those loss counts, how many losses you
- 24:32Speaker 4: have and how much factor that gets taken into it,
- 24:34Speaker 4: and even though dependent on the schedule, you may have
- 24:37Speaker 4: all that stuff.
- 24:39Speaker 2: All right, So big ten, I have Ohio State over Indiana,
- 24:42Speaker 2: Andrew has Ohio State over Oregon. And when we come back,
- 24:47Speaker 2: we are going to get into our college football playoff
- 24:50Speaker 2: seating and who will be the national champion for the
- 24:54Speaker 2: twenty twenty sixth season. That's all coming up here on
- 24:57Speaker 2: Chip Howard Sports Talk on the Zone.
- 25:00Speaker 6: All right, that's an interview we did a little while
- 25:02Speaker 6: ago with Randy Kochiever in tracking Marlon And you know
- 25:09Speaker 6: John Jones doesn't stock Marlin, but he will fix your
- 25:15Speaker 6: pond or lake to grow Marlin sized bass. How about
- 25:20Speaker 6: that for a segue. Do not try that at home.
- 25:23Speaker 6: I'm a professional. I'm going to talk to you a

- 29:08Speaker 2: Welcome back to Chip Howard Sports Talk here on the
- 29:10Speaker 2: Zone eleven fifty ninety three point seven FM. Caleb Rapley
- 29:14Speaker 2: and Andrew Rapsilver your hosts today as Chip will be back.
- 29:20Speaker 2: I repeat, Chip will be back on Monday, August third
- 29:24Speaker 2: with his SEC preview. But until then, two more days
- 29:28Speaker 2: of guests hosts. The summer is almost over, which is
- 29:33Speaker 2: so sad to say, but with that comes college football.
- 29:38Speaker 2: So I know everybody's sad when summer's over, but at
- 29:42Speaker 2: least we have college football. In the last segment, we
- 29:45Speaker 2: did our conference championship predictions. I had Miami over SMU
- 29:52Speaker 2: in the ACC, Texas Tech over Houston in the Big Twelve,
- 29:57Speaker 2: and Ohio State over any in the Big Ten. And
- 30:01Speaker 2: yesterday we talked about the SEC, and I took Georgia
- 30:04Speaker 2: over Texas andrew your conference champions so.
- 30:08Speaker 4: The same order, I did Miami over SMU for the
- 30:11Speaker 4: ACC in the Big twelve, I did Texas Tech over
- 30:16Speaker 4: BYU in the Big Ten, Ohio State over Oregon. In
- 30:21Speaker 4: our SEC discussion yesterday, I have Georgia over Ole Miss.
- 30:25Speaker 2: So sorry for being boring and having all of the
- 30:29Speaker 2: same conference champions, but at least we have different conference
- 30:31Speaker 2: runner ups right now.
- 30:33Speaker 4: That's as far as we had to be logical on
- 30:35Speaker 4: one end, and then you can start playing around with
- 30:37Speaker 4: it on the other.
- 30:38Speaker 2: Right, So now we are going to get into our
- 30:43Speaker 2: playoff predictions, and we both seeded one through twelve College
- 30:49Speaker 2: football playoffs, so I believe it's five conference champions have
- 30:55Speaker 2: to get in and then seven at large teams So
- 30:59Speaker 2: those are the rules and number one overall seed. You
- 31:07Speaker 2: have a couple options here. You know, there could be
- 31:11Speaker 2: as many as four undefeated conference champions that are in
- 31:15Speaker 2: contention for this. I don't think they're all going to
- 31:16Speaker 2: go undefeated, but I think that Ohio State's gonna end
- 31:22Speaker 2: up getting the nod for the one seed. Georgia Bulldogs
- 31:25Speaker 2: is okay, See all right, we're different. See everybody, we
- 31:28Speaker 2: didn't plan this. We're different.
- 31:30Speaker 4: Yes, totally off script for sure, that's definitely. I'm glad.
- 31:33Speaker 4: I'm glad we're different here. But I I just think
- 31:37Speaker 4: with with Georgia's schedule, their toughest games, if I mean,
- 31:42Speaker 4: you can throw Georgia check in their rivalry week if
- 31:44Speaker 4: you want to. You go at Bama, at Ole Miss,
- 31:48Speaker 4: Ohio State, you have at Indiana, you have Oregon, you
- 31:52Speaker 4: have Texas, the Michigan game. I just see there's more
- 31:58Speaker 4: potential for Ohio State slipping then Georgia slipping. And so
- 32:04Speaker 4: I think that's where that's where, that's why I have
- 32:06Speaker 4: Georgia up there at number one.
- 32:08Speaker 2: All right, I see the vision there. The one thing
- 32:11Speaker 2: I'll say about Georgia is that I could see them,
- 32:14Speaker 2: you know, getting lulled into a little bit of a
- 32:16Speaker 2: sense of false security. Their last three games of the
- 32:18Speaker 2: season are Missouri, South Carolina and Georgia Tech. And I
- 32:21Speaker 2: don't think they're gonna have any trouble in any of those. No,
- 32:23Speaker 2: so that might, you know, come back to bite them
- 32:26Speaker 2: once they get into the conference championship and then the playoff.
- 32:29Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean Georgia is reasonable. That's why I
- 32:32Speaker 2: have number two. Yeah, we'll go ahead and move into that.
- 32:34Speaker 2: I have Georgia number two. I don't know that they'll
- 32:39Speaker 2: get through the schedule unscathed, but the SEC champion isn't
- 32:44Speaker 2: going to be any lower than two.
- 32:45Speaker 4: So yeah, no, it's Ohio State. For me, was that
- 32:49Speaker 4: number two. You couldn't go much lower than that. There's
- 32:53Speaker 4: still going to be tremendous, I believe. And you look
- 32:57Speaker 4: at the games I mentioned with Indiana, Oregon in Texas.
- 33:01Speaker 4: I don't see them losing more than one of those,
- 33:05Speaker 4: if any, So I think they'll be they'll be just fine,
- 33:11Speaker 4: all right.
- 33:11Speaker 2: So the three seed I think is probably where at
- 33:15Speaker 2: least where the disagreements could really start to diverge. I
- 33:21Speaker 2: kind of did this assuming that everybody was undefeated, and
- 33:25Speaker 2: how the committee would would treat that. So if everybody's undefeated,
- 33:29Speaker 2: I think that the committee is gonna go Miami.
- 33:31Speaker 4: Yeah. And that's so when we dive into this all
- 33:35Speaker 4: the way through the top twelve, it's when you know
- 33:38Speaker 4: a lot of like a lot of your questions may
- 33:40Speaker 4: come up. But I wrestled so much with strength of schedule,
- 33:44Speaker 4: and that's the strength of schedule, but how many losses
- 33:46Speaker 4: a team has over just the overall record. Miami is
- 33:50Speaker 4: gonna have a very strong record regardless of schedule, and
- 33:54Speaker 4: that's why they'll they'll be number three. The committee has
- 33:57Speaker 4: always chosen the good looking record over well.
- 34:01Speaker 2: So the thing about the good looking record is that
- 34:03Speaker 2: I feel like it's more likely that Miami, you know,
- 34:06Speaker 2: even if they are a conference champion, has a loss
- 34:08Speaker 2: or too. And then you have Texas Tech right there,
- 34:12Speaker 2: who has really just like one or two tough games
- 34:14Speaker 2: on their schedule, and they're probably just going to be undefeated.
- 34:17Speaker 2: So I could see the argument if anybody wanted to
- 34:20Speaker 2: put them three. That's why I have Four's Texas Tech
- 34:24Speaker 2: for all the reasons I just said, they're going to
- 34:26Speaker 2: have it. Their record's gonna look great. How strong that
- 34:30Speaker 2: record is you know is debatable, but they're they're probably
- 34:33Speaker 2: gonna be undefeated or or just one loss.
- 34:37Speaker 4: Yeah, I certainly I could see that. But where I
- 34:41Speaker 4: change a little bit here, I do think I think
- 34:45Speaker 4: Oregon's gonna slide up and take four. Okay, Okay, I
- 34:50Speaker 4: think they'll make enough noise. I think their one loss
- 34:55Speaker 4: will be Ohio State, and I can't I see Ohio State,
- 34:59Speaker 4: like le potentially running the table. I think they'll be
- 35:04Speaker 4: slotted back from Ohio State because they will lose to
- 35:07Speaker 4: Ohio State. But I'll have Oregon at four.
- 35:09Speaker 2: Yeah, and you got to remember they're gonna lose twice
- 35:12Speaker 2: regular season and conference champion.
- 35:14Speaker 4: That's true. Yeah, that's it. Didn't even think of.
- 35:16Speaker 2: This, see if they'll have them. And I don't know,
- 35:19Speaker 2: you know, with Alabama last year, they didn't really drop
- 35:21Speaker 2: them down much after losing the SEC championship game. So
- 35:25Speaker 2: I hope that they really don't take too much stock
- 35:28Speaker 2: into the loser of conference championship games, just because so
- 35:35Speaker 2: a little later on, you know, we're going to get
- 35:36Speaker 2: to some of our other conference losers, and you know,
- 35:39Speaker 2: they might have more than two or three losses. But
- 35:42Speaker 2: I still feel like a loss in the Conference championship
- 35:46Speaker 2: game is not the same as a loss in the regularship.
- 35:48Speaker 4: It's not, and so I guess it depends on where
- 35:51Speaker 4: it shows up.
- 35:51Speaker 2: Yeah, but last year we did see them not take
- 35:55Speaker 2: too much stock into Alabama losing the SEC championship game.
- 35:58Speaker 2: I think they might have dropped him one spot, right,
- 36:01Speaker 2: But so yeah, that's that's kind of my thought on
- 36:04Speaker 2: the whole Oregon thing there. My number five seed is
- 36:08Speaker 2: my Big ten runner up Indiana, and I think they're
- 36:12Speaker 2: going to be and basically the same boat as you
- 36:13Speaker 2: have Oregon being in losing to Ohio State in the
- 36:16Speaker 2: regular season, losing to Ohio State in the conference championship
- 36:19Speaker 2: and those being their only two losses. I think will
- 36:21Speaker 2: be enough to keep them at number five.
- 36:24Speaker 4: Five, I have Texas Tech. I don't think you slide
- 36:27Speaker 4: further much further than that.
- 36:28Speaker 2: That's fair, all right. This is where it's going to
- 36:32Speaker 2: start getting really messy, and that's that's why we love it. Yeah,
- 36:35Speaker 2: that's why that's why I were doing this. The number
- 36:38Speaker 2: six seed. I hate this so much, but I have
- 36:42Speaker 2: to put Texas here. This is where I have my
- 36:45Speaker 2: SEC runner up, Texas Longhorns, and I think they're going
- 36:49Speaker 2: to have at least a couple losses. But if Texas
- 36:52Speaker 2: is in a position, if they if they make the
- 36:54Speaker 2: conference championship game and they're you know, at least ten
- 36:57Speaker 2: to two going into that, I don't see the committee
- 36:59Speaker 2: dropping them much for other than six number six.
- 37:02Speaker 4: I have everyone's favorite, everyone's favorite team not affiliated with
- 37:07Speaker 4: a single conference in Notre Dame. Oh and ah gross
- 37:15Speaker 4: and simply for like, like we talk about the good
- 37:18Speaker 4: looking record, They're consistently rewarded with that, and that's been
- 37:24Speaker 4: the past. So I I just for the sake of history,
- 37:28Speaker 4: I don't see them dropping much further. That's that's just
- 37:34Speaker 4: what we're going off the track record that we have
- 37:36Speaker 4: and Notre Dame at six. I'm I as soon as
- 37:39Speaker 4: I started uttering these words, I could see you tense
- 37:42Speaker 4: up in the blood curl and just the anks just
- 37:45Speaker 4: even saying and uttering the words Notre Dame.
- 37:47Speaker 2: Oh see, it's a visceral reaction, right, and.
- 37:51Speaker 4: So that that's that's kind of that's where I see
- 37:53Speaker 4: it though.
- 37:54Speaker 2: Okay, I'm not gonna hate on it too much because
- 37:58Speaker 2: they do have a Charman so off schedule, but they
- 38:01Speaker 2: do have to play BYU B Yu Miami there are
- 38:05Speaker 2: some tough games, that's all I'll say. Yeah, seventh seed,
- 38:11Speaker 2: this is where I'll have controversially a little bit. Maybe
- 38:16Speaker 2: I think the ACC gets two teams in. I got SMU. Wow,
- 38:20Speaker 2: that's okay, okay, so all right. I think not having
- 38:26Speaker 2: to play in Miami this year really bodes well for them.
- 38:30Speaker 2: I think that Miami loss in the conference championship game
- 38:35Speaker 2: will be uh their only loss, and they're part of
- 38:41Speaker 2: the reason why. I think Notre Dame won't get in
- 38:43Speaker 2: because SMU plays Notre Dame in Week twelve, and I
- 38:46Speaker 2: think I got the Mustangs. So yeah, seven seed, SMU.
- 38:51Speaker 4: Well seven, I have my SEC runner up in Old Miss,
- 38:55Speaker 4: so I have they have to commit at some point.
- 38:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 38:58Speaker 4: I think that's that's kind of where I led them to.
- 39:00Speaker 2: It'd be interesting to see, you know, if we have
- 39:03Speaker 2: another chaotic year in the SEC, how low the runner
- 39:06Speaker 2: runners up and you know, the next couple of teams
- 39:09Speaker 2: end up dropping.
- 39:10Speaker 4: What's amazing about some of this is this could potentially
- 39:13Speaker 4: be washed by week.
- 39:18Speaker 2: I think we'll know very quickly on a lot of
- 39:20Speaker 2: these if we were right or wrong, especially this next
- 39:24Speaker 2: one that I have in the eighth seed. My third
- 39:27Speaker 2: team from the SEC, the Alabama Crimson.
- 39:28Speaker 4: Tide, okay, yesterday. Yeah.
- 39:32Speaker 2: I think we'll know very quickly whether or not this
- 39:35Speaker 2: is right, just by how they look in their first
- 39:37Speaker 2: few games, because week one they play a team that
- 39:41Speaker 2: I might talk about in a little bit. And if
- 39:42Speaker 2: you don't remember who they play week one, that's good
- 39:45Speaker 2: because I didn't spoil it for you.
- 39:46Speaker 4: Stay tuned. So eight seed Alabama, eight seed Indiana, eight
- 39:51Speaker 4: seed Indiana. I see that you respectfully, Yeah, respectfully, and
- 39:54Speaker 4: that that that's I mentioned. I have Ohio State and
- 39:57Speaker 4: Oregon ahead of them in the regular season. I see
- 40:00Speaker 4: even potentially losing both those games. Still very good team though,
- 40:03Speaker 4: still playoff.
- 40:04Speaker 2: Forthy all right, nine seed, and we'll speed this up
- 40:08Speaker 2: a little bit so we can get to our championship predictions.
- 40:11Speaker 2: I have my third Big Ten team, the team that
- 40:15Speaker 2: I said I was high on, usc Trojans, Okay, and
- 40:18Speaker 2: they go to Tuscaloosa to take on Bama.
- 40:20Speaker 4: Yep. Nine seed for me, Texas Longhorns come again.
- 40:24Speaker 2: And I like that. I think your third place SEC team,
- 40:29Speaker 2: it'll be interesting see how many we get in. I
- 40:31Speaker 2: think we got five last year. I don't know.
- 40:33Speaker 4: I don't get five this year, but I would say, no.
- 40:36Speaker 2: Okay, tenth seed, and this matches up with the seventh
- 40:41Speaker 2: seed of SMU. I have everyone's actual favorite, Texas A
- 40:46Speaker 2: and m Maggy's.
- 40:47Speaker 4: There you go, Yeah, there you go.
- 40:49Speaker 2: So this is maybe a little bit of wishful thinking
- 40:52Speaker 2: because we do have a tough schedule, but I think
- 40:54Speaker 2: we'll be able to get through it ten and two
- 40:56Speaker 2: and that'll slide us in nicely in to the back
- 41:00Speaker 2: half of the playoff.
- 41:01Speaker 4: Ten seed b yu Wow.
- 41:04Speaker 2: Two Big twelve teams yep, okay.
- 41:06Speaker 4: Give it. That's that's that's where my diceness comes in.
- 41:10Speaker 2: That's where some of the ever happened.
- 41:12Speaker 4: They were both ranked fairly high last year by you,
- 41:16Speaker 4: right near that that cutoff. I still see them being
- 41:20Speaker 4: solid again. I put them in this year. Why not?
- 41:24Speaker 2: It'd be I just every year with the Big Twelve,
- 41:28Speaker 2: there's some unforeseen chaos that happens.
- 41:30Speaker 4: And this is I'm telling you, this is what the
- 41:32Speaker 4: chaos is this year.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Maybe it's maybe it's reversed and that there's no chaos
- 41:37Speaker 2: and b why you just runs the table and only
- 41:38Speaker 2: loses to Texas Tech. It can happen, there you go,
- 41:40Speaker 2: it could happen. Eleventh seed. Uh, and this is remember
- 41:45Speaker 2: don't forget about the group of five team that has
- 41:46Speaker 2: to be in here.
- 41:47Speaker 4: Yeah, that'sident.
- 41:49Speaker 2: This isn't it for me, but I just wanted to
- 41:51Speaker 2: remind you of that, so that anyway, eleven seed, this
- 41:54Speaker 2: is where I think the SEC will get five teams
- 41:57Speaker 2: in I have ale miss.
- 41:59Speaker 4: Okay, there you go. Oh so I went finally SMU
- 42:03Speaker 4: joining the party. All right, so you do have two
- 42:05Speaker 4: A do have two ACC teams?
- 42:07Speaker 2: I think one of the big twelve or ACC will
- 42:10Speaker 2: get two teams, not both, I don't think. I don't
- 42:12Speaker 2: think there's room for both to get to but I
- 42:15Speaker 2: think at least one will. That's that's where that's an
- 42:18Speaker 2: official locket in prediction.
- 42:19Speaker 4: For me right now. The fun one Yeah.
- 42:22Speaker 2: Group of five, I don't know. It's hard to project
- 42:25Speaker 2: these just because it feels like it just rotates every year.
- 42:30Speaker 2: I'm gonna go to the American Conference. I have one
- 42:35Speaker 2: of the best uniform combinations and mascots in my opinion,
- 42:41Speaker 2: the East Carolina Pirates. Wow, yep wow. And it's hard
- 42:45Speaker 2: to even justify this just because it's hard hard to
- 42:48Speaker 2: project a group of five, but basically all the teams
- 42:51Speaker 2: that I feel like are the usual suspects in the
- 42:54Speaker 2: lower ranks. All their coaches just left, ye like James Madison,
- 42:59Speaker 2: Memphis two Lane, they all just lost their head.
- 43:05Speaker 4: Texas yeah yeah.
- 43:06Speaker 2: North Texas was a team that was in the mix
- 43:07Speaker 2: last year. So I like East Carolina.
- 43:10Speaker 4: So I'm really really leaning in heavy on the emphasis
- 43:14Speaker 4: of the American Conference. This is a lot of Homer
- 43:18Speaker 4: and me and I mean Homer by the United States
- 43:20Speaker 4: of America, the Navy midship Right in America's two hundred
- 43:25Speaker 4: and fiftieth year as a country, the Navy Midshipman anchors
- 43:29Speaker 4: Away will defeat USF to be the American Conference champions
- 43:34Speaker 4: and be the twelfth seed in the college football playoffs.
- 43:37Speaker 4: It does would lay any better than that. I would
- 43:39Speaker 4: love that.
- 43:40Speaker 2: I think they are the top near the top of
- 43:43Speaker 2: the projections for the group of five. It's interesting that
- 43:47Speaker 2: neither of us went Boise State because they're going to
- 43:49Speaker 2: be really good. I think they will be, you know,
- 43:52Speaker 2: right there in the mix for that twelfth playoff spot.
- 43:57Speaker 4: What I put myself in a comfortable position here is
- 43:59Speaker 4: because my group of five team being the Navy, you
- 44:03Speaker 4: can't hate it, No you're not allowed to hate it,
- 44:06Speaker 4: So it's it'd be an amazing story all the way around.
- 44:09Speaker 2: I'd love it all right. So we have our twelve
- 44:12Speaker 2: playoff teams. With that we will give our national championship predictions.
- 44:19Speaker 2: So coming out of the top side of the bracket,
- 44:23Speaker 2: I am going chalk the number one seed Ohio State Buckeyes.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Coming out of the bottom side of the bracket a
- 44:31Speaker 2: slight upset here, I'm taking my three seed Miami Hurricanes,
- 44:37Speaker 2: and in the National Championship game, I have Ohio State
- 44:40Speaker 2: over Miami.
- 44:43Speaker 4: I have, like you said, one versus three, I have
- 44:46Speaker 4: Georgia versus Miami, and I think I think this year
- 44:53Speaker 4: I'm gonna go Miami.
- 44:55Speaker 2: Wow, getting this done without Carson Beck.
- 44:57Speaker 4: Get it done without Carson Beck. I think both those
- 45:01Speaker 4: teams will have great runs, but Miami will clear the hurdle. Georgia.
- 45:05Speaker 4: The Georgia pick would be boring.
- 45:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean think, well, I don't think it would be,
- 45:10Speaker 2: just because we haven't really seen Kirby Smart and Georgia
- 45:13Speaker 2: have quite as much success as they as they did
- 45:16Speaker 2: you know, five years ago, since you know this whole
- 45:19Speaker 2: nil era started. Yep, they've been like right there on
- 45:22Speaker 2: the outside looking in of you know, the upper upper echelon.
- 45:25Speaker 2: So I think that would be big for them. But
- 45:28Speaker 2: I don't hate the Miami pick. I really like again,
- 45:30Speaker 2: I really really like Darian Mensa. I think that he
- 45:33Speaker 2: might throw for five thousand yards with mal chay Toni
- 45:35Speaker 2: as a receiver.
- 45:36Speaker 4: It's gonna be It is gonna be exciting in South Florida.
- 45:40Speaker 2: Absolutely so. To recap, number one seed for me Ohio
- 45:44Speaker 2: State Buckeyes, number two Georgia Bulldogs, number three, Miami Hurricanes,
- 45:48Speaker 2: number four Texas Tech Red Raiders. Those are the four
- 45:51Speaker 2: teams getting the buyas number five versus twelve that's Indiana
- 45:55Speaker 2: hosting East Carolina. Six verses eleven that's Texas hosting Ole
- 45:58Speaker 2: miss seven vers ten SMU hosting Texas A and M
- 46:02Speaker 2: and eight versus nine, Alabama hosting USC, Ohio State over Miami.
- 46:08Speaker 4: In the championship one through four, Georgia Bulldogs in Ohio State, Miami,
- 46:15Speaker 4: and then Oregon will be the teams with the buye.
- 46:17Speaker 4: The five seed I have Texas Tech over twelve seed,
- 46:21Speaker 4: the Navy six seed, Notre Dame over eleven seed, or
- 46:27Speaker 4: six seed playing eleven seed Notre Dame SMU. The seven
- 46:32Speaker 4: to ten I have seven being Old miss and the
- 46:35Speaker 4: ten seed being BYU, eight seed being Indiana, nine seed
- 46:39Speaker 4: being the Texas Longhorns.
- 46:42Speaker 2: All right, well, that is it for our college football predictions.
- 46:47Speaker 2: We'll hopefully get a chance to host sometime in between
- 46:51Speaker 2: now and the end of the season and we can
- 46:53Speaker 2: check in on those. We'll see if that happens. We're

- 48:16Speaker 14: Lefty Mackenzie Gored delivered a quality start, allowing three runs
- 48:20Speaker 14: with nine strikeouts and seven innings, but the bats weren't
- 48:23Speaker 14: getting runs across. After the game, the Texas Rangers and
- 48:26Speaker 14: a divisional foe in the Los Angeles Angels, made a trade,
- 48:30Speaker 14: the Rangers sending nineteen year old shortstop Angel Aredondo to

- 49:43Speaker 2: The final segment of the show here on a Thursday evening,
- 49:47Speaker 2: Caleb Rapley and Andrew Rapsilver co hosting Chip Howard Sports
- 49:51Speaker 2: Talk Today, and just wrapped up our college football predictions
- 49:56Speaker 2: and last segment, We're going to talk a little b
- 50:00Speaker 2: Valley Bombers baseball. The Bombers got a crucial win last
- 50:04Speaker 2: night on the road in Victoria, five to zero over
- 50:08Speaker 2: the Generals. And you know, after after last night, or
- 50:12Speaker 2: not last night, after Tuesday's game, we were a little
- 50:17Speaker 2: nervous if we would even get to a winner take
- 50:19Speaker 2: all game three. So excited, we're, you know, nervous about
- 50:25Speaker 2: how this game is going to go. But Andrew, I
- 50:27Speaker 2: don't know if you had a chance to watch the game.
- 50:28Speaker 4: I did for quite a bit of it.
- 50:30Speaker 2: So yeah, so how were they able to I mean,
- 50:32Speaker 2: it sounds like they just shut him down.
- 50:34Speaker 4: It was. It was dominance. It's the exact kind of
- 50:37Speaker 4: performance Ryan Targach wanted out of this for which you
- 50:40Speaker 4: would want any coach would want in an elimination game.
- 50:44Speaker 4: They didn't get by by the skin of their teeth.
- 50:45Speaker 4: They dominated the entire night. Ryler Smart and Travis Minard,
- 50:49Speaker 4: who made his first start on Sunday to close out
- 50:52Speaker 4: the season. Ryler Smart went five innings, only allowed two hits,
- 50:57Speaker 4: and Travis Minard pitched the final four innings, picked the
- 51:00Speaker 4: the win, and only allowed one hit. Seven combined strikeouts
- 51:03Speaker 4: between those two guys. But between the two pitchers, only
- 51:06Speaker 4: three hits allowed for the entire game and a two
- 51:10Speaker 4: pitcher shutout, and the Bombers did not get all their
- 51:14Speaker 4: runs in one inning like they did in Game one.
- 51:16Speaker 4: They sprinkled the occasional run here and there, and they started.
- 51:19Speaker 4: We talked about this yesterday. They started strong early. They started.
- 51:23Speaker 4: By the time I left the station here in the
- 51:26Speaker 4: studios and drove an hour fifteen minutes back home and
- 51:31Speaker 4: got onto the stream, which is probably about ten minutes
- 51:33Speaker 4: or so after first pitch, they're already ahead. And I
- 51:35Speaker 4: was like, well, already. What we talked about is start strong,
- 51:38Speaker 4: start early. Case and Atkins Tiger Donado combined for four
- 51:42Speaker 4: of the eight hits for the Bombers. A completely dominant win.
- 51:46Speaker 4: And I really like always, in whatever series it is,
- 51:50Speaker 4: however long the distance, whoever wins the game six going
- 51:54Speaker 4: into game seven, or in this situation, game too, going
- 51:57Speaker 4: into game three, you've got the momentum. I'm really excited
- 52:01Speaker 4: to see what goes on tonight, and if any of
- 52:03Speaker 4: the guys are listening to Ryan, all the guys, go
- 52:06Speaker 4: get them, Go get them guys.
- 52:08Speaker 2: Simple as that, we are excited. And the Bombers were
- 52:12Speaker 2: in danger of losing their playoff streak. They narrowly sneaked
- 52:17Speaker 2: in as the four seed and have put up a
- 52:21Speaker 2: really good fight against the team that has been dominant
- 52:24Speaker 2: throughout the season this year against Victoria. Right, So, and
- 52:28Speaker 2: it came.
- 52:29Speaker 4: Very tensely to the last night with having to have
- 52:32Speaker 4: San Antonio lose and US win to be able to
- 52:35Speaker 4: get in. It was not just it was not just us.
- 52:37Speaker 4: We had to get some help and we didn't.
- 52:39Speaker 2: Yeah, so it sounds like maybe a little bit of
- 52:42Speaker 2: Team of Destiny vibes here. And I hope we're not
- 52:44Speaker 2: jinxing it by saying that.
- 52:46Speaker 4: I hope not go tonight. Well, we'll see him down
- 52:49Speaker 4: in Lake Charles in the weekend if we can make
- 52:51Speaker 4: it happen tonight. So really really hoping for it. And
- 52:56Speaker 4: Game three or winner take all game, that's what you want.
- 52:59Speaker 2: All right With that, We're gonna go ahead and wrap
- 53:01Speaker 2: it up this segment. Andrew, thanks again for coming in.
- 53:06Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. Absolutely, hope we get
- 53:08Speaker 2: to do it again at some point. Chip, we'll be
