Now on our Big Ten show, I usually have to make some kind of pick. So now I watch the game full levels of stress. It's like you made the pick on Channel 4. Now you get to watch the game. And the audience either thinks you're a genius or a total dummy. Welcome to national TV. Oh, yeah. Welcome, you idiot on TV. They can't pick them, right? Join Chris Sims and everybody else in the business.

Yo, yo, yo, what up?

0:39.9

It's Chris Sims. It's Chris Sims on button. I'm with that dummy Carter Rodgers, right? It is the worst part about being, you know, putting yourself out there. You got to do it. You got to the game. I have finally got to a point in my career. I used to get Ben out of shape on Sundays

and even picking games where, like, I would notice I'd start the football night in America show and be like, what's wrong with me? And be like, I'm still pissed that that team didn't win and cover. And I told everybody this week, this was the lock or whatever else. Yep. And I finally have gotten to a point where it's like, okay.

1:13.3

1:25.6

We'll see.

If Jeremiah Smith wins the Heisman or John Mnterre wins the Heisman, that'll give me cushion for two years.

1:30.9

Oh, but would be amazing. Yeah. And I would, right now, they're in the leader house. They're right there. And they'd be my favorites right now. They're right there. I love him. I got to see Jeremiah Smith in person this weekend at Ohio State. I heard you talking about him. Freak show. I mean, special, right?

I mean, first off, it looks like he could play linebacker.

1:48.8

It's insane.

1:49.3

1:58.1

He's truly incredible.

1:59.9

And then what's crazy, his speed is deceptive because he's got these big, powerful strides. So it's not this fast, like, hamster wheel turnover. And he just covers so much ground to where...
