This is an IHeart podcast.

I don't know what I should get ready for.

Because the first round of the playoffs for this week, as I'm talking to you on Sunday night.

And I feel like either some teams are about to get put in their place and order is going to get restored and all the big favorites are going to win.

Or there's going to be a gigantic mushroom cloud over everything in total and complete chaos and

anarchy will rule. There is no in between. We cannot have nuance in this sport anymore.

We're jam-packed high atop a speculative downtown Nashville, Tennessee on this Sunday night,

December 15th. The Year of Our Lord, 2024, proudly brought to you by Academy, Sports, and

outdoors. Why speculative? Well, proudly brought to you by Academy, Sports, and Outdoors. Why speculative?

Well, we got to pick the playoffs tonight. We got to do all the first round games. It's Sunday night. It's prediction night. We have rules on this show, and we're going to adhere to them as best we can. So I'm going to pick all the first round games. We'll break them down. We'll do it the same way we always do it.

But I'm actually not even going to lead the show with that.

I'm actually not even

going to lead the show with that. I'm going to lead the show with something I've never led the show with before, Colin, you've been with me since the beginning. Have we ever done a segment on the Heisman, much less led the show with Heisman? Now, you may think to yourself, oh, the Heisman, I don't care about that. It's really not about the

Heisman. It's about a plague that has swept college football. It is a casual plague, but it is a

plague nonetheless. We have to address it. It is our duty on this show to address it. I got some

harsh yet constructive feedback I'm holding in my hand. It's about me. It's negative,

but I think positive in the end. I'll put that later in the show. We've got some busted

predictions on the show tonight. We got transfer portal moves that are happening even in the last

two minutes before we came on air. We had transfer portal moves being rumored and bantied about

and outright reported. So yeah, we're jam-packed tonight. Happy to have you with us. They're watching us in Jefferson City, Missouri, Conroe, Texas, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Thank you guys so much. I have made up my mind where I'm going for the first round. I don't think it's that

big a secret. I'm going to go to Tennessee, Ohio State. Bala. Cats out of the bag. And we'll break that game down a little bit later, as we'll break down every one of the first round games. But that's not what I'm going to lead the show with tonight. And I'm very happy all of you are tuned in live or if you're listening on a random Tuesday morning to the replay, I'm happy for that too.

Travis Hunter won the Heisman trophy last night. I'm doing this show on Sunday, and I have never led this show talking about the Heisman, because I don't have a vote, so I don't spend a whole lot of time on it, but it is the most prestigious award in college football, and I think the right guy won it last
