This is an IHeart podcast.

Welcome in.

Late Kick is live.

It is Thursday night. It is April 16th. We just got that confirmed the year of our Lord 2020. Happy to have you with us here for another live edition. We have got about as jam-packed the show as we've had in. Colin, I would safely say the last month. And that may surprise many of you because there is no college football going on, but yet there is so much going on. We're happy to have you here. If you're already here, do me a favor, like the show. That's just that little thumbs up button and subscribe to the channel if you haven't already. I'm going to plug the podcast later because I've got some things that I need to say about the podcast and maybe some ideas. You guys ultimately drive this show.

Joe Burrow. In case you guys haven't noticed, it doesn't really pay this time a year to call

elite players, elite players. And so

squeaky wheels get the grease, unfortunately, and there are some squeaky wheels out there

that we need to address. So we're going to do all that, and we're going to have some really

interesting comments that are largely echoing what we have shared with you on this show. But this

time it's from the athletic director at the University of Texas. so maybe if people haven't already been paying attention, they will pay

attention now. Happy to have you with us. Let's get into it. We're going to start the show tonight

with one of your favorite topics, and judging by my email inbox and my Twitter direct

messages and even Instagram direct messages, that is valid. You guys

love to talk about SEC bias. So we're going to leave the show tonight. S.E.C. Bias. Now,

let me quickly give you a backstory. The other day on Twitter, I had a little back and forth. We

were, I think, initially talking about expanding the college football playoff and you know how against that I am for a

myriad of different reasons if you want them listed, some of which at least go back and watch
