I will not pick Florida to beat Georgia until I actually see them do it on the field because of the recruiting gap

Florida is the favorite... I'm still a little surprised by that because I keep saying I'm not picking them against Georgia until I see them beat Georgia, just because of the recruiting gap. Recruiting rankings matter in the aggregate. If you just sign a bunch more five-stars than somebody else, you're probably going to win most of those games.

Florida did actually beat Georgia 44-28 in November 2020, ending the Bulldogs' three-game winning streak in the rivalry.

The NFL should require the highest-drafted quarterback to start behind Ryan Fitzpatrick for three games

They should make a rule that whoever drafts the highest quarterback has to start Fitzpatrick for at least three games at the start of the season. So like Trevor Lawrence when he goes to the Eagles, [Fitzpatrick] should have to start for them.

The NFL did not implement such a rule, and Trevor Lawrence started immediately for the Jaguars.

Trey Lance will be a first-round NFL draft pick

Trey Lance is going to be a first rounder probably... This mock draft I'm reading right now has Trey Lance late in the first round to the [Saints].

Trey Lance was selected 3rd overall in the 2021 NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers.

Sports talk show hosts should be required to wear shirts and ties because unbuttoned collars look unprofessional

I actually think all sports radio talk show hosts should wear shirts and ties. Enough of this unbuttoned top thing. I think you look unprofessional when you do it. I'd rather listen to Max Kellerman be wildly incorrect than somebody that doesn't look like... I can almost see Colin Cowherd's nipples right now.

This is a purely subjective aesthetic and professional preference.

A 10-2 Kentucky would make the playoff

If Kentucky's 10 and two, they're making the playoffs. So it—there's not really a style point situation that they've gotta worry about. They just have to keep winning.

Kentucky's final record and whether a 10-2 season earns a playoff berth are not yet resolved.

BYU could make the playoff without winning the Big 12

I don't know that BYU has to win the Big 12 now to make the playoff. If you have a 12-and-0 Texas Tech and they beat BYU in the Big 12 championship game and hand them, let's say, their second loss, they're both getting in.

The Big 12 standings, championship result, and playoff selection have not yet been determined.

The 24-team playoff will not kill college football

I do not think this is gonna kill the sport. I don't think it's gonna kill the regular season.

Whether expansion harms the sport and regular-season interest is a long-term evaluative question, not a single objectively settled result.
