Welcome in to My Dogs Are Barkin on MPW Digital presented by Heath Riles Barbecue.

My name is Landon. Welcome to the Thursday show. And it's going to be a little bit of a different show today. I mean, we're one week away from the college football playoff officially starting. So we are going to roll through the bracket. We're going to pick game by game, match up by match up, and talk about who wins it all. So if you're watching on YouTube, the benefit is you get to see the bracket at a lot of time as we're talking about it. If you're listening to Spotify or Apple Music or any other streaming service, the good news is you don't get to see my face. The bad news is you don't get to see the bracket there. So you're checking us, check us out on YouTube if you have a chance. But if not, you can listen. But here's what we're going to do. We're going to roll through every single matchup, and I want you to hold me to what I choose. So we come back, and I'm wrong on something. I want you to point out. I want you to point out and be like, Landon, you don't know what you're talking about. And you'll be very, you will be completely right on more than just football. But very excited for today.

Of course, you know, our show covers Mississippi State.

And so we will talk about, we've talked about the Bulldogs this week as they have a new defensive coordinator.

What that kind of means, they got into a bowl game and the positives that come from that as well.

There's been a shake up on the coaching staff.

And it looks like it's not done quite yet, according to Coach Jeff Leby as of yesterday in the press conference. So a lot of good stuff to get to today. So glad that you're joining us. And man, we're finally here. We're finally to a point where the college football playoff is close. And the matchups are set.

The news of Sharon Moore happened yesterday.

I think there's enough big media market people to come out and cover that stuff,

you know, and good for them.

My main real question is like what's going to happen now?

Like what in terms of who's going to take Michigan's, you know,

head coaching job? Because now like this whole coaching cycle who's going to take michigan's you know head coaching job because now

like this whole coaching cycle's kind of played out but at the same time is it like could a team go

out or could michigan pay the money to go buy out um you know lincoln riley because it's it's a private

amount of money we don't know what his buyout is there at usc could they pay the money to go pay the new buyout for Eli Drinkowitz? I don't know. I mean, but they did save a lot of money being able to fire Shroom more with cause. So there's a thing there. The people talking about, you know, Lane Kiff into Michigan, that needs to stop. They're not paying 91 million dollars to go get him out of LSU.

That's not happening.

People can move on from that.

That's done.

What's done is done, and that is done.

So very excited.

We're going to break down this bracket and go all the way through.
