I told you. I told you we were going to do this. It's overflow time. I don't even know what to call this. I guess Josh Pate's college football show Extra Podcast Only Mailbag Edition, whatever the acronym is there.

I just had too much.

I could not pack it all into the Sunday Night Show or the Monday podcast version if you listen on audio only.

And so this is going to be really informal.

We've just got a lot more questions to get to i'm going to pull it up

right now this is like you and i having lunch together we're just going to chop it up and i'm going to go

through a whole bunch of your questions in the mailbag starting with brandon he's in chicago are

conference strength debates overrated and meaningless?

Yes, yes, I hate them.

I don't ever do them.

I always hated them.

Now, what normally used to happen is back when bowl season mattered,

we would get to bowl season, and we would have the,

what did they call it like the Capital One Bowl mania.

ESPN would always put up the graphic.

The SECs won this many games.

or the Big Ten's gone nine and one in bowl season. Well, I always hated that. Not because I hated

bowl season. I love bowl season. I hated the logic, or lack thereof, behind comparing conferences.
