If Georgia wins the National Championship, they are officially the new standard in college football, replacing Alabama
The new champ should be, we want Georgia. Like Georgia has become the new standard and if they win Monday night, without question, even if they don't win, I feel like they've arrived to that point. They win Monday night, there's a new sheriff in town. You know, it's Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs.

There's another possible outcome that we can have here. This is the one that I think that they should do. This seems to be the most fair one. They are considering giving eight seeds in the AFC as well as the NFC. Ooh. Because the nurse back, that would be more fair if you can't just have, you know, the the number one seed in the NFC, get a leg up and get that buy week if the AFC doesn't get it. Right. So I think that that's the fairest way to go about it.
The AFC Championship Game should be played at a neutral site in Detroit

Lovie Smith will purposely tank the Week 18 game against the Colts to secure the #1 overall pick
Lovie Smith, there's precedent for him tanking at the end of a season. If you remember in 2014, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers... basically tanked in real life. He tanked right as we were watching it. He tanked that game. I think he will do the same in this game. Even if they get a lead, he will make sure that they find a way to lose.

I think these players at this point, they need to sign contracts. I think we need a CBA, I think we need to form some kind of player's union... we somehow need to get that national view to partner with the players union. Create a CBA where you're held accountable. Okay, we're gonna agree on NIL here are the rules we're gonna agree on... and then we obey the contract on both sides.
Ohio State's offensive line is a massive concern that could lead to an upset loss against Tennessee
If you really watched the Michigan game, when they lost the center from Alabama, Seth McLaughlin, when he went down with that Achilles, I think that offensive line is a serious question mark going up against Tennessee's strength, which is their defensive front.
Indiana will pull off the upset against Notre Dame in the CFP
