The pride, passion, and pageantry of college football lives here.

0:09.7

This is the Paul Pinebaum Show, Our One podcast.

0:15.3

This might be college football head.

Very pleasant and good afternoon on just another calm Wednesday, the day after the CFP is out,

0:24.5

and we are ready to go and share some knowledge with you. Good afternoon. And this is what it looks like

0:30.1

today. So we would have USF in Georgia. That would be in Georgia, Notre Dame Oregon. It's not a bad game.

0:36.9

Miami, Texas Tech, Texas Ole Miss at the SIP, and then the winners move on. That's what it looks like now. We all know that's not what it will be, but this is all make-believe. Is it not? The SEC's chaos scenario is in play after the second playoff ranking. That is, according to Connor O'Gera, and here's what he's talking about.

0:58.0

You've got all these teams that are in contention.

I was on first take today, and Doggy was all upset that five or six SEC teams could possibly be alive.

1:08.3

Well, I got bad news for you, Doggy.

1:10.0

That's exactly the way it is.

1:35.2

that seven SEC teams are ranked higher than the highest ranked ACC team? You'd say, well,

1:41.1

there's a pretty good chance we're going to see a whole lot of SEC representation in the college ball playoff and the ACC's a one bid league. That's kind of where we're at. And for what it's worth, I don't actually think we're going to see a scenario in which there are seven SEC teams that are 10 and 2 or 11 and 1. But as we sit here going into the third Saturday of November, it is kind of crazy that it's at least possible.

2:02.3

Now, it's probably not going to be possible by the end of the weekend because that would take Texas going into Georgia and winning there.

2:09.4

It would take Oklahoma, going into Alabama, winning there.

2:12.1

And there are still a few other games that it would take in order for us to get to that place.
