  Well, that naturally goes my next question. We'll go find out how much
• 0:05
  cousin Shane loves you right here, Jake, because you got Tennessee tended too?
• 0:09
  Is it tended to? I'm just gonna assume that that's good enough.
• 0:13
  Now, it's not always gonna be the case, but I'm gonna assume,
• 0:15
  Jake, that a ten win SEC team is gonna make the college football playoffs.
• 0:20
  So I don't know where would you lean on that. If Tennessee goes
• 0:24
  tended to, they play Georgia, they play Bama, they play at Oklahoma,
• 0:29
  a lot of difficult games for Tennessee. If they're winning ten games,
• 0:33
  we have to assume Nico's the real deal. One of the best offenses in
• 0:36
  the country. I would think would win in ten games. Would what attendant
• 0:40
  to Tennessee? Do you think they would deserve to make the college football playoff?
• 0:45
  Yeah? I think they would deserve to get in. And you know,
• 0:47
  let's just play this out. If I go to my final, if
• 0:50
  this works out right, you go, Texas will be number one, Georgia
• 0:52
  two, OMUSS three, Tennessee four, followed by several nine win teams and
• 0:57
  you know, LSU, Oklahoma, Auburn, Texas, A and M.
• 1:00
  But I think so, you know, just look at Tennessee real quickly.
• 1:03
  I have their losses at Oklahoma and then against Georgia. I think I like
• 1:07
  the matchup with Alabama at home, and then the rest of the schedule they
• 1:11
  should be favorites against NC State, UH Gains State, Chattanooga, Arkansas,
• 1:15
  Florida, Entucky, MISSI, b U, TEP, Vanderbilt. So they
• 1:19
  should be favorites in those games. Again, the problem and I'll know this
• 1:23
  once we work through this, and just just you know, for fun to
• 1:25
  see what happens is you know, in the a CC, for instance,
• 1:27
  if you get a one loss Florida State and a one loss Miami and then
• 1:32
  maybe a one loss Clemson, that creates problems. You know, how many
• 1:36
  how many teams will get bids out of the Big twelve? Will it just
• 1:38
  be the champion or how many or leg you it to another one? Will
• 1:42
  how many teams out of Big ten? So to answer your question, I
• 1:46
  think at ten and two, Tennessee would make a strong case, especially when
• 1:49
  you start talking strength to schedule numbers and having to play Oklahoma, having to
• 1:53
  play Georgia, having to play Texas, or Timy Alabama that they would have
• 1:57
  a strong resume for it. But again, I think you're kind of crossing
• 2:00
  your fingers at Tendant too. But I like tennis this year a lot. Now you
