Ohio State. Really? Ohio State is still powering. In Texas, too. Ohio State and Texas are two of the best four teams in the country. I like that. That's what I was getting at with, with the seating. Like if you, if you say who are the best four teams in the country, I mean, some people might want to throw Notre Dame in there, but it's Ohio state, Texas, Oregon, and Georgia.

Those are the four best teams. And you got two of them that potentially would have to play four games in order to, to win the title. But yeah, if Texas or Ohio state won the national title, no one would be shocked at all.

I can't either. I mean, you're asking SMU to beat To be Penn State, and then they would luck out. You would get Boise State in the next round, but then you'd potentially get Georgia, and then you're going to get either Ohio State, Texas, or Oregon. It's not going to happen. The way the teams are built are different. In college basketball, you have five players on the court at once. It's not...

Build continuity with upperclassmen and you're playing together for three, four years. That stuff matters. College football, you're not going to get that. You get 11 on 11, the two deeps. It's just college football is the most schedule-reliant sport that there is. And I know people hate it when I say it, but all schedules are not created equal. All conferences are not created equal.

So like, even you look, compare the Texas schedule in the SEC to what Georgia faced going on the road to Texas, Ole Miss, uh, Alabama, and then having to play Texas again in the, in the conference championship game. Like, uh, you need to figure out a way that that, that is like one of my fixes, uh, for the sport that you need with these mega conferences.

Now, 16, 18 teams in the league, 14 teams, you need to have two divisions. You at least need to have some clarity of who you're playing and, and make it clear as opposed to Indiana missing out on everybody good in the big 10, uh, with the exception of Ohio state and, and did some of the other leagues because it really was unfair, uh,
