| 0:49.5 | Welcome in, man. |
| 0:50.3 | If I start off, I just want to ask you, easiest play on the board from your perspective yesterday of and count the Ohio State game of the four playoff games. |
| 0:59.6 | When Alabama's line wasn't moving, especially after Ohio State lost, I knew that was bad news for Bama. |
| 1:05.6 | Was that your biggest play yesterday? |
| 1:07.4 | What was your favorite play of the four college football playoff games? |
| 1:10.7 | You know, biggest position I ended up with yesterday was a first half under in Oregon, Texas |
| 1:14.9 | Tech, which worked out all right, although I think the score at the break was a little bit misleading. |
| 1:19.5 | I did have a piece of, excuse me, of Indiana laying six and a half on that early open. |
| 1:23.8 | You guys have known how I felt about this Alabama team going back to the Iron Bowl against Auburn. But unfortunately, I got baited into backing Georgia, thinking that they were going to be the superior coach team. Looked at that game, felt fortunate to be up 21, 12 at the half, knowing that Kirby is known for his in-game adjustments. And credit Pete Golding and that old miss staff for not taking their foot off the gas and doing the things it takes as a six, six and a half point underdog this time a year, being the aggressor. And Trinidad Chambliss performed at an all-time high level, making the throws and high leverage situation. So kudos to Ole Miss, a team I didn't think had a chance to win a national championship that now finds themselves two games away from doing the unthinkable. Now, Furman, I'm going to ask you, is it an Ole Miss brand problem too? You know, we talked about that with Indiana, Alabama, and obviously Indiana, it ended up being a touchdown favorite. But going into this Miami game, like, I believe Miami's defense is great, but I think Ole Miss is the more complete team, and they're catching, depending on where you're shopping this thing, three and a half points. I thought it would be closer to a pick. Is it because of the Ole Miss brand? So my number on this game before we saw each result during the quarterfinals, I would have made Miami a two-point favorite from a pure power number perspective. I can understand why odds makers built in a little bit of tax going to a full field goal, but I do think you're going to have an appetite for Old Miss throughout the betting market, grabbing the three and a half points. I mean, if Trinidad-Chambliss is capable of replicating the effort that we saw against Georgia, it makes Ole Miss extremely dangerous. Now, all of that being said, look, Georgia didn't |
| 2:52.3 | have an elite defensive line all year, and we saw that on full display where they were able to |
| 2:57.0 | generate a little bit of pressure. They couldn't keep Chambliss in the pocket. He was able to extend |
| 3:01.5 | plays and come up with the explosives downfield. In my opinion, he's not going to have that |
| 3:06.2 | luxury against two NFL caliber |
