I would rather root for a team that loses in the big game than one that never makes it

I still think I would take a team that's consistently – I would rather be in the big game and lose the big game than never sniff the big game. I can't imagine being a fan of Vanderbilt football.

This is an inherently subjective philosophy on fandom.

Wisconsin will never win a national championship because they don't get fast five-star recruits

I'm sticking with what Wisconsin has, even though I know in my heart of hearts they'll never get the fast guys, they'll never get the really good guys, so they'll never win.

Wisconsin has not won a national championship since this take and continues to struggle with elite speed/recruiting compared to SEC/Big Ten elites.

Case Keenum has reached the point where he won't be benched even if he loses a game

Case Keenum has now gotten to the point where if he loses a game, I think he still gets to play the next game. So it's really Case Keenum, we're going to do this.

Keenum remained the starter for the rest of the season and throughout the playoffs, including the Minneapolis Miracle.

The Packers will run the table and make the playoffs when Aaron Rodgers returns

Don't look now, but Brett Hundley has done what we didn't think Brett Hundley could do, which is basically, like, steer them mediocrely for, like, you know, five weeks, and then Aaron Rodgers [is] going to come back. No, the Packers are definitely – I mean, they're going to run the table.

The Packers did not run the table. Rodgers returned for one game (a loss to Carolina) and was then placed back on IR as the Packers missed the playoffs at 7-9.

Starting Geno Smith is a cyanide pill that ends an NFL coaching career in a week

He realized that starting Geno Smith is a suicide machine for coaches. That's just a pill that you pop cyanide. It's like the dude in Bosnia, I have taken poison, should have just stood up and said, I have started Geno Smith. And he's dead within the week. It's over.

Ben McAdoo was fired by the Giants on December 4, 2017 — literally the day this episode was released — just one week after the Geno Smith decision.

The Bills will finish 10-6 and make the playoffs

Everything's out in front of us. I mean, we just got to start winning. I'll go 10-6. Win a road game in New England. The curse has been broken. Yes, we're coming. We're coming for you [Brady].

The Bills finished 9-7, not 10-6. However, they did make the playoffs, breaking a 17-year drought. They lost their next game against New England.

Thursday Night Football is garbage and destroys player safety

It's the worst shit ever. It's so stupid. They could take Thursday Night Football and stick it right up their ass. Let's fuck up everybody's preparation. Let's have guys who are hurt playing on four days rest. It's just bullshit, you know?

This is an opinion, though widely shared by players.

Alabama is a better team than Ohio State regardless of the committee's logic

The only thing I care about, I actually have no problem with Alabama being in because I do think that they're a better team than Ohio State. I just think the committee is full of fucking shit. At the end of the day, all that fucking matters is losses and big losses. And if Ohio State doesn't lose by 31 to Iowa, they're in.

Alabama went on to win the National Championship, supporting the claim that they were the better team than an Ohio State squad that was excluded.

Clemson is the best team in the country and will crush Alabama in the playoffs

I actually think Clemson's going to win it all. I think they're the best team. I think they're going to whoop the fuck out of Alabama, which is going to be hilarious because then you get the Ohio State fans being like, should have been us to get the whoop the fuck out of Clemson.

Incorrect. Alabama defeated Clemson 24-6 in the Sugar Bowl semifinal and went on to win the championship.
