This is an IHeart podcast.

It's Sunday night here.

We're live.

Actually, Lake Higg is live.

Sunday night, February 4th, The O'R of Our Lord, 2024, but a lot of stuff has happened ever since Friday, so you haven't spoken about it yet. You may be wondering, well, how do I make sense of this? What's going on? We got an alliance? Do we not have an alliance? Big Ten, SEC. Basically, I'm going to explain it all tonight. Don't worry. But if you need to have a cinematic metaphor, maybe a

cinematic analogy put in front of you, college football's having its twister moment. I'll tell you

what I mean in just a second. We're high atop a spirited downtown Nashville, Tennessee. The city is

a buzz. A couple of days of sun tan caliber weather, if we're being honest with ourselves and whomst did have thunk it

because we were below zero two weeks ago but yes friends we're here we're live college football

is changing as we speak some of you are going to love it uh many of you are going to at least

like it some of you are going to hate it that's the case with anything in the sport but i'm going to describe to you exactly what's happening tonight i'm not going to do it are going to at least like it. Some of you are going to hate it. That's the case with anything in this sport.

But I'm going to describe to you exactly what's happening tonight. I know a lot of you have been sort of out on all this. Don't worry. This is where you need to be. I'll explain everything that's going on and everything that we can't know yet. I'll explain that as well. This is also the show. we have chosen to take this upon ourselves to power rate every program in the SEC tonight.

Why would we do that? I really don't know, but we're going to do it tonight because, well, because it's the right thing to do. I'll tell you why I noticed I didn't say power rate.

Good old fashioned power rankings tonight on the show. Nebraska, what could they be?

USC, what could they be? I will discuss. I got several breakout quarterbacks to talk to you about

tonight. Maybe sprinkle in a little Dion in Colorado. Josh, you always talk about them. I don't think we've

done a Deon segment in 2024 yet. They're watching us in Naples, Florida, Santa Cruz, California,

Knoxville, Tennessee, and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. A lot of seismic activity out in Oklahoma all of a sudden.

Some are saying Oklahoma may be the New California. Others are disagreeing, but some are saying it.

I was going to plug what I'm about to talk about for the next week, but I'm not going to. The Pate State Speaker Series is almost already full. I really underestimated the amount of response we were going to get from programs all across the country the other day. So I'm going to tell you one more time, and then that'll just about be it. We are taking the show on the road to several places this spring. We did it last

year. It was a big hit. We're really, really upping the ante a little bit this year. Here's what we need from you. If you're an SID, head coach, whoever's listening. What we would ask is one-on-one, could be pre-recorded. In fact, most of the time we pre-record those. One-on-one sit down with the head coach, 30, 40 minutes in length, and then the ability to broadcast our show, this show right here, live from your campus, your facility normally somewhere. Don't need to be crowd. Don't need anything like that. Just need a little space to be able to execute a show, preferably with a nice, picturesque backdrop. So that's what we're looking for. We have already locked in dates with several programs. I'm going to get to several more tomorrow. So if you're listening, guys, no, I haven't forgotten about you. But yeah, we're really looking forward to that. Why stay in a studio all spring when you can just go out on the road? That's our motto. No offseason around here. All right, let's dive into the show

tonight because we have many, many, many different directions to go, but there's only one place
