All right. All right. It's our number two, rapid fire time, and we've got roughly a half an hour or so to go here. So we've got a little bit of time. Very little. Sean Stiers, Vince DeDario, Bobby Hensley. What you're saying is Bobby has come in and he's just going to Bogart all of our talk. It's going to steal my thunder. And I'm not good about sharing. That's really, I'm the oldest in the family. I don't share very well. That's true. So, you know. Sean loves a quote about eating lightning and crapping thunder. So maybe he likes to steal that. I don't know. I don't know where that came from. Just that doesn't know. You love Rocky.

All right.

Let's start with this super chat here.

0:56.6

Any chance a two lost Texas Tech team gets left out for a two lost Notre Dame team,

1:02.1

Tech will have lost to number 11 and unranked while Notre Dame's losses to number 7 and number 12.

1:08.0

I see if I'm going scale of one to 10, I'm sorry,

1:11.1

it's zero.

1:11.8

1:16.3

in the rankings this week to out of the field if they lose to BYU in the

1:20.8

conference championship game.

1:22.0

At worst,

1:22.9

they'll fall probably like two spots would be my guess.

1:28.2

Um, no, yeah, I think they'll still be hosting no matter what happens.

1:32.5

Because the committee has been very consistent about the fact that could there be movement

1:37.1

if they're, you know, because of conference championship weekend, yes, could there be a lot of

1:42.7

movement?

1:43.3

No, like teams aren't going to fall out.

1:45.6

And Texas Tech would have to tumble pretty darn far. Now, if you take everything else out of it,

1:52.0

right, the fact that this would be the final ranking, this is a championship game, if you just wanted

1:56.9

to compare Texas Tech and Notre Dame's resumes with Texas Tech as a two-loss team, Notre Dame is a two-loss team. I think Notre Dame has a better resume, but it doesn't matter. It's too late in the season for Texas Tech to fall behind Notre Dame. Like, that's not going to happen. If they would have gotten their second loss, you know, four weeks ago, let's have a conversation. Yeah. But that's not going to happen at this stage of the game.

2:19.1
