This is an IHeart podcast.

And welcome in Lake Higgins live.

It is Thursday night, November 11th, the Everlord, 2021 jam jam-packed wall to wall high atop downtown Nashville,

an unusually, nay, suspiciously crowded control room just beyond this wall here. Finally,

actual people in the building, aside from just director Colin and I, and I'm not speaking ill

of Colin. I'm just saying, boy, it gets lonely around here. So, hey, if you see an extra fancy graphic or two tonight, it's because our friend Miranda came in and dropped kick the control board until we can get the sliders to work again. So we're very excited to have a jam pack show and very excited to, you know, actually have personnel in the building. Look, just when you guys think you have this playoff picture figured out. College football will go and it will

change the game on you. And so I want you to be very careful as you wade your way into these

second weekends and third weekends of November. I know it looks like it's close. I know it looks

like conference championships just around the corner. Look, take it from a guy who drove a 12-seater

van across Texas. Don't ever just unsuspiciously walk around any corners. You never know what's waiting around the corner. And I want to talk about a few of those games tonight. So we're going to do some predictions that we didn't get through the other night about some week 11 games. I didn't even get to Georgia, Tennessee yet. I didn't even get to Purdue, Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State.

I mean, there's a lot of potential, very treacherous hurdles out there. And in that vein,

we're also going to talk about some playoff disaster scenarios, is what we're going to call them tonight.

I've got, I think, three, maybe even four of them. One of them is just holistic, like the entire

Big Ten or holistically the entire Big

12. I mean, there's some really messy situations that we could get ourselves in. Also,

the coaching carousel we have not touched on in about a week we can have. I like to let that

breathe, but it is time to sort of re-up the intel and whispers and what we're hearing.

LSU obviously open, USC open, but TCU open for the time being.

And as you know, a couple of those that I mentioned are true keystone programs,

in that when they make moves, it's not over.

That's the beginning of this massive ripple effect chain reaction throughout the sport.

And you may sit there and laugh that someone's coach got taken.
