  Right now Chris Landry Landry football dot Com and of course Landry Football on X
• 0:04
  here to talk Smorgasport, NFL college football with us. Chris, Welcome in,
• 0:08
  sir. How are you doing good? Jacob to be with you,
• 0:11
  man, Hey, I appreciate you. All right, let's first, let's
• 0:13
  go here college, a little college. I want to get your thoughts on
• 0:16
  today the College Football Playoff Committee, to no surprise, approved the five plus
• 0:21
  seven model, which we're talking about four Power four now champions plus a group
• 0:27
  of five champions and in the next seven highest ranked teams in the College Football
• 0:31
  Playoff Poll. But some talk inside the committee today a little bit of worry.
• 0:36
  So I guess you could say that the SEC and Big ten are talking
• 0:39
  already expansion privately, and they're talking about automatic qualifiers. So that's probably able
• 0:45
  to figure where we're headed. But your thoughts on everything that happened today.
• 0:50
  I expected it. It's the way the way the tea leaves were being read
• 0:55
  that it was going to come out that way. My only problem bloom with
• 1:00
  it, and this is this didn't happen today that we knew this was going
• 1:03
  to happen, and I mentioned it though I am not a fan, and
• 1:07
  I think this is something that's being overlooked in the media and it's going to
• 1:14
  be the the course of discussion going forward. When the playoffs are announced,
• 1:21
  We're going to have a team, and I think the SEC is more than
• 1:26
  likely the one, and the Big Ten could be as well. You're going
• 1:29
  to have a team, maybe the second best team in the SEC that just
• 1:34
  clearly, you know, is one of the best teams in the country,
• 1:40
  one of the top two problems, and they're going to be and I don't
• 1:42
  think people got their their minds wrapped around it, don't realize it. They're
• 1:48
  not going to be one of the top four seats, you know, And
• 1:52
  and that's going to be a big issue. So you could have, for
• 1:55
  example, I'm just gonna throw this out second best team in the S and
• 2:00
  just throw that out there. I'm gonna I'm gonna say that George's maybe the
• 2:04
  best. Next year, you got a really good team that's eleven and one
• 2:07
  or something, and then you've got maybe a nine and three Arizona team win
• 2:13
  the Big twelve. They're gonna be ranked high. And I don't think people
• 2:15
  understand there or realize that. I mean, they may or they figure this
• 2:21
  out that they're gonna be one of the top four seeds Arizona and then the
• 2:24
  maybe the seconds team in the country and the big ten of the SEC they're
• 2:29
  gonna be outside the top four, they're gonna be one of the at largest.
• 2:32
  I don't uh. I'm not a big fan of that. We have
• 2:36
  that in the NFL, where you obviously a wald Cart team plays in the
• 2:39
  wald Card Round, they go on the road and play a team that's barely
• 2:43
  five hundred. But I think that's gonna be something that's gonna be talked about
• 2:47
  as like that. I don't think people quite get that at this point.
• 2:51
  I think it's positive that we're expanding. I think all of that is good,
• 2:54
  but that's the biggest issue. What happened today was expected. I think
• 3:00
  as the PAC twelve is kind of picking up the pieces and they've they parted
• 3:06
  ways with their commissioner and got a new commissioner. I think for them it
• 3:10
  makes sense because they don't have an automatic I mean, they have no automatic
• 3:15
  bit status, so their best chance of getting in if there's the two remaining,
• 3:21
  is you know, getting that large spot. So I think we're gonna
• 3:25
  have to revisit this the two things that I just mentioned. Where's the PAC
• 3:30
  twelve gonna be going forward after this year?
