| 0:19.2 | Guys, I know February can be a little bit weird, but as of today, spring practice has started on the campus of Pate State. So it's time to lock in, and I wrote it in all caps. Lock in. We got a jam-packed show. In fact, a suspiciously jam-packed show tonight. We're going all over the country, a bunch of different questions, but this is the time of year you start to figure things out. We're jam-packed, we're high atop, unilluminated, downtown Nashville, Tennessee. Sun's still up. I don't know what kind of psychopath doesn't love this. I'm not one of them. I do. Sunday, March 8th, the Year of Our Lord, 2006. We just call it kind of our mega spring preview edition because it looks good on the thumbnail. |

| 1:27.3 | attention to, I think it may matter. |
| 1:29.6 | I'm not just talking about to power brokers or commissioners or presidents. |
| 1:34.5 | I mean, you driving around right now, St. Paul, Minnesota, Valda, Georgia, you know, just a fan of college football. |
| 1:40.2 | You may actually care about this particular thing I'm paying attention to. I got some games I'm |
| 1:46.0 | circling this year and someone asked us, believe it or not, about Urban Meyer in Florida. Not a ton |
| 1:55.1 | of breaking news, not a ton of new information when it comes to Urban in Florida, but an interesting |
| 2:00.4 | question that's going to give me an excuse to go down one of my favorite |

| 2:07.0 | If everyone has like their favorite president or their favorite history subject to study, |
