Florida State is just an average football team, not a playoff contender

That team that we saw play on Saturday [Florida State] is not a playoff team in a 14-format, a 12-team format, a 30-team format. That's an average football team we saw.

Florida State finished the season 1-11, making them significantly worse than even an 'average' team.

Jacoby Brissett is an eight-win quarterback guy under the radar

[Jacoby Brissett] is a good quarterback. He'll get you probably eight wins if he starts the entire season... I'm just saying Jacoby Brissett feels like an eight-win quarterback guy under the radar.

The Patriots finished the 2024 season 4-13. Brissett started roughly half the games but did not reach 8 wins.

Jacoby Brissett is a 'tread water' quarterback, not an eight-win guy

I wouldn't say he's an eight win quarterback. I think he's a get you a couple wins in, like your starter goes down. Jacoby Brissett comes in, he can tread water. He's a tread water guy. He's a three and four guy.

Brissett started the first five games for the Patriots in 2024, going 1-4 before being benched for Drake Maye, aligning with Big Cat's 'tread water' assessment.

I won't get FOMO about Drake Maye sitting because the Patriots are in a rebuilding year

I'm not gonna get FOMO about Drake Maye not starting. Our offensive line's bad. I think our roster's not great. It's okay. It's a rebuilding year. I think you let's embrace it for what it is.

This is subjective, but Maye became the starter in Week 6, and Hank was very excited about it once it happened.

The Big 10 is currently the best conference in college football

The Big 10 is, is the best conference in college football right now. And I think they will probably win their fourth national title with the fourth different team this year.

This is a subjective claim about conference superiority but includes a testable prediction about the 2026 national champion.

Texas is not the clear #2 team in the SEC; their schedule is nasty and the program vibes feel tenuous

I push back on Texas being the clear number two, the more I thought about it. That schedule is so nasty... I just don't like the whispers around the program right now. It feels like Sark never really has that thing where he is like, you know, I know Cignetti at Indiana is a firm leader and that thing is tight. Georgia, Kirby Smart, same thing... but I don't feel that at Texas.

Will be resolved based on where Texas finishes in the SEC standings.

Texas A&M is a fake top 10 team this year

I don't believe in them at all. A&M fans think I'm just a hater, but last year... their first seven games in the SEC were against teams ranked 10th through 16th in the SEC. They needed a miracle to beat South Carolina. Then they finally get to Texas, they finally get to Miami. They can't score, they can't move the ball. And I think the quarterback is just okay. And I think they had to revamp the offensive and defensive lines. They're not getting that schedule again. I think A&M right now is a fake top 10 team.

Will be resolved based on Texas A&M's final record and ranking in 2026.
