| 0:00.0 | Today's episode of Dog Nation Daily is brought to you by Pella Window and Door of Georgia, viewed to be the best. |
| 0:09.1 | Presented by dognation.com. This is Dog Nation Daily, the daily podcast for Georgia Bulldogs fame. Here's your host, Brandon Adam. |
| 0:16.9 | Georgia played a game on Saturday. I promise we will talk about it, but there is some stuff we got to do before we get to that. |
| 0:23.5 | Ultimately, this is the reason why this show exists. We exist to provide commentary that other shows either are unable to do or unwilling to do. |
| 0:32.8 | And there is an example of this where the most prominent voice in all of college football, the leading |
| 0:39.5 | analyst, the face of the sport in many ways for a good number of years now has been Kirk Herbstry. |
| 0:44.4 | We're not anti-Herb Street necessarily. We think he's done some good things over the years. |
| 0:47.9 | But there is no more prominent voice, no more prominent, you know, analysts when it comes to |
| 0:52.8 | sport than Herbst Street. And over the course |
| 0:54.8 | of the offseason, you'll remember this. Herb Street was going everywhere he could talking up |
| 0:59.2 | Alabama. And really, as he was doing that, kind of talking down Georgia, expressing this doubt |
| 1:05.6 | and skepticism about UGA, pumping up Alabama. And on Saturday night, that got proven |
| 1:10.4 | hilariously wrong in a game |
| 1:12.1 | that Herb Street was calling for ESPN. But at no point in time on Saturday night, at any point in that |
| 1:16.8 | broadcast, did Herb Street come across and say, well, you know what? I guess I was wrong about Alabama |
| 1:22.8 | this whole offseason. All that stuff I was saying in the handful of interviews that I did, |
| 1:27.4 | I guess I've got egg |
| 1:28.4 | on my face. See, these national media types never do that. You know, on a show like this, hopefully when we get something wrong, you know, we come up, we own it, we'll take our medicine over that. You get a chance to laugh at me. We don't take ourselves too seriously. But there's a certain level of fame that once you, you know, once you obtain it, it's sort of like that old |
| 1:46.0 | line about, what is it, you know, being loved means never to say you're sorry. Like when you get a certain level of fame, that means you never have to say you're sorry for anything. You never have to say, oh, I guess you got me on this one, because college football is whatever you say it is. And if you change your opinion or if you forget your old opinion, you know, there's no one big enough to kind of call you out. So we exist to call out. We exist to save receipts. We exist so that the average fan can, you know, have a moment to say to the, you know, the big analyst who wants to, you know, look down on people sometimes, and Herb Street's a little bit guilty |
| 2:17.9 | of doing that from high atop his ivory tower. We exist to sort of keep folks like that a little bit |
| 2:23.0 | humble. So in light of what was a thrillingly entertaining game on Saturday night with Alabama |
| 2:29.8 | losing to Texas, in light of all of that, let's do right now what none of these ESPN shows are going to do. They don't have the guts to do this. They don't have the willingness to do that. They are not going to call out their number one guy, Kirk Herb Street, for how wrong he was about Alabama and by proxy how wrong he was about Georgia during the offseason. So we will do this. We knew within a couple of weeks of the start of the |
