| 0:00.0 | It is time to discuss the shit show that this is called the College Football Playoff Committee. |
| 0:09.8 | We're here and it's the age-old debate. |
| 0:13.0 | There's 18 from 8 to 16-ish and the debate is who should get in? |
| 0:17.6 | Right. |
| 0:18.5 | With two weeks to play and then conference championship weekend when most of those |
| 0:22.6 | teams will not be playing anyways, we have to try to figure out which two lost |
| 0:28.3 | team should get in. |
| 0:29.7 | And it's really looking like once again, a three lost team will not get in and a two |
| 0:35.0 | lost team is going to get left out. |
| 0:36.3 | And so cue the whining and bitching and crying when you lost to Florida and shouldn't have. Bingo. It's that time of year.

| 1:08.1 | It's that simple. |
| 1:09.6 | I don't know what else to say. |
| 1:11.2 | My goal today is to convert you over onto the most deserving teams instead of the best teams deserve it. It'll never happen. It'll absolutely never happen. I'm just going to work on it slowly today. It just, it defies logic. So it won't. Well, we're both football purists. We'll meet in the middle. No, we won't. |
| 1:29.7 | I want the best 12 teams in the college football playoffs. |
| 1:35.0 | We wouldn't even be having this debate if we didn't feel the need to give a make a wish bid. |
| 1:36.2 | I love make a wish. |
| 1:37.2 | To group of five. |
| 1:40.2 | Yeah, for a dying kid, sure. |
