Chase Thomas podcast. The Chase Thomas podcast.

My nephew needs me to record. See, I hate it. I already hate it. I hate it.

All right. Hello. And look back to another episode of the Chase Thomas podcast from Still the A for mention Chase Thomas coming to you live from Knoxville, Tennessee Everything School, H.Q.

Joining me down there in DeKilla, Georgia, my good friend, the University of North Georgia alumni, and host of the Georgia Voice of College football is here. Matt, good evening, sir. How are you? Good evening, sir. It is good to be back. I know you're just locked into playoff baseball right now, right? I have the Cubs game taped, so I will go. I usually like picking games. Oh, really? I was being sarcastic. No. Well, no, I have it. Like, I like it. It's just, I like pick different series to lock in on. It's just like everything else where it's just I'm not going to be sitting around all day watching. Got other stuff to do. But I do pick certain games and just like everything else with NBA. And you know, you got to pick your spots, you know. We're busy guys in our mid-30s. We got to pick our spots. So yeah. And you got a Cubs interest. I mean, with your wife, I imagine you're having to watch every Cubs game, right? No, she's not even that locked in.

Or it's, I probably watch Lesb. imagine you're having to watch every comes game, right? No, she's not even that locked in.

I've probably watched less baseball this year than any year of my life, if I'm being

honest.

Like, man, it was, not that I'm just a fair weather fan over here.

I've rooted for the Braves through the tough times, but, uh, you know, it's, it was bad

this year. But yeah, with no Braves in the postseason, I feel like I have no interest right now.

That's fair. Well, Matt Green, we got a, we got, I should say this. It's kind of, it feels like a layoff for everybody. I mean, yeah, you've got Kentucky at home, but you go through this slate.

This just feels like a bi-week slate, man. So Tennessee, obviously, not playing on Saturday. Blasphemy. I mean, look at this slate, Matt Green. It's brutal. I think

this is the worst slate of the season outside of week zero, obviously, but this is the worst

slate, right? College football always delivers, sir. I think a couple weeks ago. I'm saying this is objectively a bad slate. A couple weeks ago, people, I think, thought the same thing, and then you're still going to get good games. We'll see. I don't know, man. This slate's pretty, pretty putrid. Like, this just feels like a lot of mailing in.

Alabama looking for revenge on Vanderbilt.

If Bama Vandy is like your number two game, with all due respect, it's not a big time

college football weekend.

Yeah, I don't know.

It's still early in the season, I don't know.

It's still early in the season.

We don't know how good some of these teams are.

It feels like there's a little less enthusiasm for some of these games that we might have thought, like a Texas, Florida or something bad.
