00:03 Kirby Smart doesn't want to talk about the team's chance at history.
00:06 You, of course, being the encyclopedia of college football,
00:09 know all about George's chance at history.
00:12 First team in 87 years to try to go back to back to back.
00:17 But he does not want to add any distractions because his off season of
00:22 guys being in the police blotter wasn't enough distractions.
00:25 Doesn't want to put any more on the team.
00:27 I'm sorry, Joe, that's a fair shot to take.
00:30 They are minus 110 to win the SEC.
00:33 Alabama and Nick, who we just saw, is plus 260.
00:37 Then Brian Kelly and LSU plus 450.
00:40 Everyone else 14 to one or more.
00:42 >> Well, Georgia's deserving to be there.
00:44 Carver, the numbers are absolutely staggering in terms of Georgia just last
00:49 year. Think about this, over the past couple of seasons, Georgia's 17 and
00:54 one on the road or on a neutral field site.
00:57 They were nine and O in terms of road matchups or on a neutral field last year.
01:02 They won those games by an average margin of victory of 25.3 points per game.
01:07 They were nine and O in the SEC,
01:09 won those games by an average margin of victory of 24.6 points per game.
01:14 They won their home games undefeated last year by 28 points per game.
01:19 And every time they pound the rock for over 200 yards dating back to 2016,
01:24 they are 45 and O straight up against FCS and FBS competition.
01:31 Eight and O last year and won by 27 and a half points per game every time they
01:36 pound the rock for over 200.
01:38 They're deserving to be the favorites in the SEC.
01:40 >> And you think that this kid Beck from BYU, no problem.
01:46 >> I didn't say that.
01:47 >> Stetson, Stetson Bennett in.
01:50 >> Beck, no wait a second.
01:52 >> Stetson Bennett out, Beck in.
01:53 No big deal.
01:54 >> Let me tell you how you twist things.
01:55 You asked me, are they deserving to be the top seed in terms of the SEC?
02:01 And I said yes, based off the numbers.
02:03 Now, are they gonna make it two or three feet?
02:07 I'm not so sure because I'll tell you this,
02:09 the schedule September 23rd with South Carolina.
02:13 Then you look later in the year, they have a back to back.
02:15 >> Come on.
02:18 >> Carver, don't start Spencer Rattler.
02:21 Last year I bet him to win the Heisman.
02:23 >> Where's that game?
02:24 >> 16 to 1.
02:25 It's in Athens.
02:26 It's in Athens.
02:27 >> Yeah, it's in Athens, okay.
02:29 >> Here we go.
02:30 >> I thought it was in Athens.
02:31 >> This is why I can't have a conversation with you.
02:33 I can't, that's it.
02:34 >> It's not about, just you think that they're going in?
02:37 You think they're going into Georgia and beating the Bulldogs?
02:40 >> I just, all right, well, okay, wait a second.
02:42 Ole Miss comes to Georgia the week before the game against Tennessee and Joe Milton.
02:47 Why, you're telling me Georgia can't lose in Newland Stadium?
02:51 Alabama lost last year.
02:52 >> This is the softest regular season schedule in the past three years.
02:59 >> I agree, all right, here we go, all right.
03:01 >> Okay, it is.
03:02 >> All right. >> It's the softest.
03:03 >> Okay. >> And I'm sure they'll get through it.
03:05 And could they lose at Tennessee?
03:06 I don't know.
03:07 You're telling me Jersey Joe Milton's no good.
03:09 You said that's a big step down from a hen in the cooperative.
03:12 >> I'm just saying it's a back to back.
03:13 >> Big step down.
03:14 >> It's a big, it's a back to back.
03:16 You got Ole, you're upsetting me.
03:18 Ole Miss and Tennessee back to back will ultimately dictate whether they're in
03:22 the championship game.
03:24 >> I would love to see them lose, you know that.
03:27 I don't like these teams flying through 12 and 0 in a regular season.
03:30 I wanna see them have a little adversity.
03:32 I wanna see them sweat a little bit when at college football playoff ranking.
03:37 There's all the suits sitting that room with their crack crab and
03:40 lobster deciding everybody's fate on Thanksgiving weekend.
03:43 I wanna see them having to sweat that out, Joe,
03:46 as they lead into conference championship week.
