Here we go. Time to smash it up on a Monday night after a win. We don't take these for granted.

That's now the second Monday smash in 2024 after a victory. I see you, Troy Nol. Happy Victory Monday Smash to you as well.

Brett, thank you for mashing the like button. He's Irishafel managing editor of Warchand.com.

I am Tom Lang. And tonight on the Monday

smash presented by State Farm Agent Russ Vhorhys. We're going to talk a little bit about the

win. We're going to talk about the Florida game ahead. Big picture stuff. The countdown to the

end of the season. We brought the clock with us. I know everybody loves it. There it is. Look at this.

Single digits.

Ira, how does that make you feel to see five days and under five hours until this bad boy is done?

Yeah, like a kid during Christmas. I, you know what I should have done. I'm kicking myself.

I should have gotten like a big watch like flavor, flave with the countdown on it and just worn that all around the last couple weeks.

Like at practice at the press conference, would they have said anything? Would they give me a

hard time? Hey man, what does that signify? Or do you think they would just let me do what I want

to do? I think they would know what it's signified. And, you know,

you might have gotten from Norville. Like, I hear you. I'm counting down too, man. I'm counting down

too. Today there was obviously a set of press conferences. I suppose we could start with that

quickly, the news and notes. Press conferences with Mike Norvel. He was asked about the timeline

of the coaching hires again.

Could it even bleed into playoff season? Randy Shannon spoke as the defensive coordinator for Florida State after a 41 to 7 win. John Papuptu just was available as well. But Ira, now that you've

had a couple of days to take in the glory that was 41 to 7 and then hear the coaching reaction

to it today, just your thoughts on their comments and then your own personal thoughts on where things are

is we've got one fine football game to go against the Florida Gators.
