The CFP selection committee is rooting for Oklahoma to lose and Ohio State to beat Wisconsin

This is what ESPN and college football, the NCAA, is rooting for. They're rooting for Oklahoma to lose and for Ohio State to beat Wisconsin. So then the final four is Clemson, Auburn, or Georgia, Alabama, and Ohio State. They would go insane for that.

Oklahoma won their conference, keeping them in. Alabama ended up making the playoff over Ohio State despite not playing in a conference championship, which aligns with the 'committee brand' theory but didn't result in the exact 4-team field Big Cat predicted.

John Fox is coaching like he knows he's fired

John Fox is going full Fox... I think there's zero Fox given for him right now. He's just going to do a thing where he throws the ball like five times a game for the rest of the year because he knows he's fired.

John Fox was fired by the Bears on January 1, 2018, shortly after the conclusion of the season.

The Kansas City Chiefs are officially frauds

The Bills, they might be back... This is for real because they go into Kansas City, a Chiefs team that I will officially say is a fraud. They're frauds.

The Chiefs finished 10-6 and won the AFC West, but lost in the Wild Card round to the Titans at home, validating the 'fraud' label to some degree for that specific season.

The Chargers will win the AFC West

I'm going to tell you why they're [for real], because they're going to win the AFC West... you were saying that they would be the best team to not make the playoffs. Guess what? You were fucking wrong because they are going to make the playoffs.

The Chiefs won the AFC West at 10-6. The Chargers finished 9-7 and missed the playoffs.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.

Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane

Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.

This is a factual claim about Hurley's ATS record over the last four NCAA tournaments. Based on UConn's remarkable tournament run, this is plausible and presented as a known stat. Cannot fully verify exact record but the claim is stated as fact.
