00:00Listen, Donnie, that conversation, that debate did not stop in the commercial break.
00:05And I have a lot of respect for Donnie Wright's side's takes on the NBA and the NFL.
00:09But when it comes to outrightly admitting that you don't watch college football and
00:13making the same outlandish arguments that everybody makes.
00:17There's no outlandish arguments.
00:18There's nothing outlandish about their equality football team that would not be very good
00:22in big conferences.
00:23I'm not interrupting you.
00:24I'm not going to let you.
00:25You're not going to get these nonsense.
00:27Yes, respond after this.
00:29Indiana is a decent football team that played the worst conference schedule I've ever seen.
00:34It was no surprise and no joke that once they played a team that was very good, they got
00:39absolutely embarrassed.
00:40They're still going to make the college football playoffs.
00:42They'll get in and they'll get blasted in round number one.
00:45They're a product of their environment.
00:47Put them up against Penn State this year.
00:49Put them up against Ohio State.
00:50Other good for Oregon.
00:51They don't even make the playoffs.
00:53There's no shame in that.
00:54This is a great season for Indiana.
00:55They played absolutely nobody and they're going to play a one win football team that's
01:00Hey, they beat Purdue.
01:01It's okay to understand exactly what happened here.
01:04They caught absolute fire by the worst schedule we've ever seen maybe in the history of college
01:09football and they're going to make the college football playoff before it.
01:12It's okay to admit that it is.
01:15It absolutely is.
01:16The odds makers are telling that at minus 3000.
01:19I have never once or as anybody that actually has a pulse denying that Indiana has played
01:25an easy schedule and they have taken advantage of easy schedule, not just escaping with victory
01:31after victory, absolutely hammering teams.
01:34Then they went into the home of the of the national championship favorites catching ten
01:39and a half points and got humbled.
01:42Nobody is arguing that what the argument now becomes the RS is the outlandish and flawed
01:49statement that you and many others who don't actually watch college football week over
01:53week are claiming about the SEC.
01:56You use hypothetical, which is not how game results matter and you use thinking that Nick
02:02Saban is still the head coach in Tuscaloosa in 2015.
02:05The argument that the SEC is just better than everybody.
02:09It's not.
02:10It's a mediocre conference.
02:11One of the best teams in the conference continuously get humbled.
02:14Donnie, who lost by 21 on the road as a 13 and a half point favorite on Saturday?
02:20Was it Indiana or was it Alabama?
02:23Because they're playing better competition.
02:24No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
02:26No, no.
02:27That answer the reality of this reality.
02:30Alabama would absolutely fillet, Indiana.
02:34They would smash what was honestly that's not a reality question.
02:40They have not played.
02:41You are using hypothetical Vanderbilt against Alabama.
02:48What realistically let me understand that.
02:50Alabama went.
02:51Let me understand this, if Indiana was in the SEC, would their record at this point
02:58be 10-1?
02:59That's all I'm saying.
03:00It would be nowhere near that.
03:01And that's all the argument is.
03:02I don't know.
03:03Because I delve in reality.
03:04I still believe that an Indiana team.
03:07They finally played a decent team and they got embarrassed then.
03:10As so many teams do.
03:11If they would have won that football.
03:12Yes, that's 100% correct.
03:13But that's the thing.
03:14No, no, no, no.
03:15Stop.
03:16Please stop.
03:17The only argument is, Indiana is a decent football team and a product of their environment
03:22and will make the playoffs.
03:23We can agree on that.
03:24Sure.
03:25If Alabama played that same schedule, they would be probably the number one team in the
03:29country coming into that game yesterday.
03:31That's all I'm saying.
03:32Sure.
03:33And if my aunt had cojones, she'd be my uncle.
03:35No, that's not it.
03:36And if kids fly, the world would be a better place.
03:38You are delving, as everybody else is, in hypotheticals.
03:43Because Donnie, we love the odds, right?
03:46We do everything from a sports betting component on the sports grid network and the early line.
03:52But the wonderful thing about sports is the odds don't always tell the tale.
03:56In fact, one of our favorite things in the world is David versus Goliath in the underdog
04:02triumphing as we have seen so many times this year.
04:08My argument for Indiana is not that, hey, they looked apart against Ohio State.
04:13Of course they did not.
04:14I am not, like you and every other buffoon is trying to do, going to diminish what the
04:19Hoosiers have done to their easy schedule, where the expected easy outcome has been outperformed
04:26by 14.6 points per game on cover margin when they have been booked as the favorite in those
04:32games.
04:33You are delving in hypothetical.
04:35Set the line if Alabama and Indiana play.
04:38Crimson Tide are no doubt laying double digits.
04:41The Crimson Tide laid 13.5 to an even 500 Oklahoma team who lost to Missouri, who Alabama
04:48beat 34-zip.
04:51And what happened in the game?
04:53In reality, what happened in the game?
04:55Tell me.
04:56There it is.
04:57You don't even need to tell me.
04:59Alabama lost by three touchdowns.
05:01Hear me out on this.
05:02If you have layup after layup, which means, Ben, you're not even playing your starters
05:05in the second half because of how easy your schedule is.
05:08When you're in the SEC in Alabama, you are playing heavyweights every single week.
05:13There are no bivouacs here.
05:15Indiana basically has 10 bivouacs.
05:16Look how many ranked teams are in the SEC.
05:20What's the strength of schedule for Alabama compared to Indiana?
05:24Did Alabama lose to a ranked team?
05:26Did Ole Miss on Saturday lose to a ranked team?
05:28They didn't even play a ranked team the entire season, Indiana.
05:34You're now arguing against Indiana again, using them as the punching bag.
05:39I am not using Indiana.
05:40Instant is good.
05:41There's a lot of teams in the country.
05:42And so, again, Indiana will make the college football playoff because they had an easy
05:45schedule.
05:46You're right.
05:47If the schedule wasn't easy, we wouldn't be talking about Indiana.
05:49That's the only point I'm making here.
05:50Maybe not.
05:51Maybe not.
05:52But again, if and what and how you are arguing hypothetical arguments that do not stand in
06:00reality.
06:01That's all you have in college football.
06:04Did they play the easiest schedule possible in the country?
06:07Yes.
06:08That's why they're in their position.
06:09If they played Oregon, Penn State, and Ohio State, then we wouldn't even be having this.
06:14We wouldn't be having this argument at all because they lost all three of those games.
06:17I know that Mr. Rightside, number one James Franklin hater, is not using Penn State as
06:24his argument for teams that don't play football.
06:25That's how you know.
06:26That's how you know.
06:27I'm backing Penn State over Indiana.
06:29That's how you know how crazy this argument sounds.
06:32I'm nowhere near Penn State.
06:35Penn State has a much better resume than the top-ranked team in the SEC, which is Texas.
06:42All to show you again that you're flawed in outdated hypothetical arguments or based on
06:49when Nick Saban and Les Miles were in the SEC.
06:53His confidence is just far superior to everybody in the updated landscape that is NIL in the
07:00transfer portal that has diminished some of the heavyweights at this sport at the highest
07:05power.
07:06Not from being a bad team, just to make it a little bit more egalitarian.
07:11Your argument does not stand the test of time, my friend.
