Takes

Ohio State will beat Texas by two touchdowns in the semifinal if they stay aggressive

If Ryan Day and Chip Kelly don't hold this team back, if they call plays the same way they've been calling plays, I think they win about two touchdowns... I don't know how you stop 'em.

I am officially ranking Georgia as the number one team in the country

Georgia's my number one team. Texas two, Ohio State's three. Tennessee, Penn State, USC, Miami, Alabama, Ole Miss, Missouri, Iowa State... and Northern Illinois.

Michigan will win the National Championship but Washington plus the points is the smart bet

My heart is putting me on Washington, but my testicles are saying Michigan... I'm leaning towards betting Washington in the points. But I think Michigan's gonna win.

If oil reaches $95 a barrel, Jimbo Fisher will get bought out of his contract

I'm setting a price target right now. I'm setting a personal price target. If oil reaches $95 a barrel, then I predict that Jimbo Fisher will get bought out of his contract.

The Washington Huskies will win the National Championship

I'm going to give you [a future bet] and I want you to go put whatever you want to put on it. On the Washington Huskies. Michael Penix is legit. I think their schedule is very favorable. They're going to score 40 on everybody. This is the most wide open season we've ever seen in college football.

There are no superpower teams in college football this year

It feels like this college football season... No one's really that good... There's a lot of really good teams, but no superpower team, which I love.

Colorado will beat Nebraska by 30 points next week

I'm on your side. You're going to win by 30 against Nebraska.

Iowa will score 31 points per game and win the Big 10 West

College Football Playoff prediction: Georgia, Michigan, Oregon, and Alabama

I'm gonna go Georgia, Michigan. I'm gonna go Oregon. I'm gonna say Oregon wins the Pac-12. First Pac-12 playoff participant since 2016. And then Alabama. Two Big 10 teams, two SEC teams essentially.

Malik Murphy is the real sleeper in the Texas QB battle and has the best arm on the team

In reality in the UT quarterback competition, there was a big dark horse sleeper that no one saw coming in Malik Murphy... I think has the best arm out of any of the quarterbacks on the team. Quinn Ewers did have an amazing day... but this Malik Murphy guy just was throwing bombs out there.

Kirby Smart is the new standard of college football

Kirby Smart is the new standard. It was actually a great moment where David Pollack told Nick Saban to his face that everyone's trying to catch up to Georgia... Kirby Smart looks like the new Nick Saban. I know, I know. That might sound ridiculous, but it, I mean he just won back to back national titles.

Nathan Vacos will be the number one kicker in the nation next year

I'm ranking [Nathan Vacos] as the number one kicker in the nation going into the next year. Facts.

The TCU vs. Georgia National Championship game will be a high-scoring shootout over 60 points

Somebody told me the over-under's like in the sixties. I think this is another game over that. I think it's another game early kind of feel each other and then after that it's gonna be back and forth. You know, I think it's in the high thirties, low forties kind of like the two semi-final games. I'd be surprised if it's not a shootout.

The Ohio-Wyoming Arizona Bowl is for true football guys because there will be a lot of running and punting

Ohio and Wyoming. I think we're gonna get some, this is gonna be one of those games where it's the true football guys, cuz there's gonna be a lot of running, a lot of punting football guys.

James Madison University will be ranked in the Top 25 if they are undefeated heading into the Marshall game

They should be wins [Arkansas State/Georgia State]. And then they got Marshall at home. They will be ranked at least 23 if they go into that game... It's pretty crazy the fact that they, this is their first year as a big boy program and they're undefeated.

Texas is 'back' following their performance against Alabama

I'm counting Texas's back because their defense played better than they played... And if Quinn Ewers doesn't get hurt, they win that game. I'm convinced of it.

Gene Chizik should be fired as North Carolina's defensive coordinator

Gene Chizik, like what? He, I don't even know. I, you have to fire him. The fact that it happened [giving up 40 in a quarter] and then the next day Jackson state... shut down [FAMU] and like UNC gave up 24 points to them.

Pitt is overrated heading into the Backyard Brawl

I'm just going to say Pitt's overrated. I think Pit's overrated.

Texas is 'back' as soon as they get one big win in September

My threshold is one big win in September. They're back... If they cover against Alabama, they might be back. Yes, that might be what makes them back right there.

Urban Meyer will be back on Big Noon Kickoff within a year and win another college title in three years

Everyone should be ready for this urban Meyer sliding back into that desk on the Fox, big noon kickoff. I don't even know, might even be as early as this year if they have a bowl game. Pre-show but that will happen. And in like three years, he'll be linked to some big time job. Probably go take it, win a national title, and this will all be like, oh, remember when urban Meyer coach the Jaguars for 15 games.

Travis Hunter will not be the only five-star recruit to join an HBCU

I liked it as well stated. And I don't think he's [Travis Hunter] going to be by himself. I'm just telling you that he's not going to be alone. I promise you. He is not going to be alone. You're going to hear about that real soon.

Brian Kelly's tenure at LSU will probably blow up due to the bad culture fit

I'm super excited for Brian Kelly in Baton Rouge because it's such a bad culture fit, obviously. So it's going to probably blow up. Now. He can either win really quickly and he should, because if he doesn't, it's going to get bad and it's going to get bad really fast. And it can be very funny to watch like Brian Kelly pretending to be a southerner.

The Clemson dynasty is officially dead and Dabo Swinney is a system coach

Clemson is officially—is the dynasty over? Clemson is dead. The dynasty's dead. Dabo was a system coach. He can't do it without an elite quarterback. He can't do it without Deshaun Watson or Trevor Lawrence.

Clemson will lose two or more additional games this season

I think they're going to lose in a bowl game... they're going to lose two or two more games.

I'm not getting off the Graham Mertz train

The Badgers fell on their face. I'm still going to believe in Graham Mertz. I'm not going to get off this train. That sucked, though.

Chip Kelly has UCLA rolling and they can beat anyone in the Pac-12

I think [Chip Kelly] does. I mean, if they can do that to LSU, where the talent gap is pretty big between UCLA and LSU, there's nobody UCLA is going to play in the Pac-12 that has that kind of talent. UCLA can beat anybody in the Pac-12.

Kansas is the worst Power Five team in college football

Oh, that's a good question. But it's Kansas. [The worst power five team].

NIL is a primary driver for Texas and Oklahoma's move to the SEC

Texas and enable to get way more. And I am on you for the recruits than probably other colleges with the Longhorns network. Yeah. So I was thinking that would probably be a huge reason why they want to go into the sec because they all this money, they can pay the recruits.

LSU's roster depth will prevent them from falling off a map despite losing starters

They do have some really good players coming back because they recruited well... You'll be able to see how deep their recruiting has been in the last few years because they're going to roll out a 2D defensive line that they feel very comfortable with. I mean they've got talent, it's not like they're going to fall off the map.

Mike Leach will have the most talented roster of his career at Mississippi State

This is still a better roster than from a talent standpoint than Mike Leach has ever had either at Texas Tech or at Washington State... smart quarterback [Costello] can come in and learn the Air Raid. I do think they're going to come along pretty fast.

Big Ten football is officially back

My cool throne is Big Ten football because Big Ten football is back. Totally. It's officially back Surya sir. Yacht who is her? Yacht.

The SEC will keep delaying their football season until the very last second

I think the SEC is going to do... full on fucking mode are at least like we're going to delay delay delay delay delay until the very last second. They might even delay again. Yeah Right now the kickoff is September 26th or something like that. Yeah SEC they might just push it back to October then they might just push it back to November.

The 2020 Big Ten cancellation makes this the least fun autumn of our lifetimes

This fall is going to be possibly the least fun Autumn, excuse me, that we'll have in our lifetimes.

LSU will beat Clemson 36-33 in the National Championship

I think Clemson hangs around, maybe goes up early, but I see LSU winning 36-33. Clemson covers.

Mike Leach will have the best quality of players he has ever had at Mississippi State

it's going to work because what Mike Leach does better than any coach is he goes to programs that are not traditional powerhouses... and he wins with not the best recruiting classes. He actually will have probably his best recruit. He'll have his best quality of players at Mississippi State than he's had anywhere else.

Sam Howell will be a Heisman contender in a few years

The Military Bowl UNC Sam Howell's awesome... circle him because he's going to be sort of like a Heisman guy in a couple years. He's a freshman true freshman.

Notre Dame is officially back

I think that just showed the world that we [Notre Dame] that we are contenders, we could play anybody... like you said, we back now, we playing good now.

The Turnover Chain is officially dead because Paul Chryst mocked it

I mean, the turnover chain. Paul Chryst killed it... Real swag is no swag. And he said, 'Turnover chain my ass.' I think when the Wisconsin head coach... says turnover chain my ass, it's over. And they tried it last year and it was weird and awkward. So I think it's over.

Urban Meyer will do media for a year then return to coaching at USC or Notre Dame

Urban Meyer's health... seems like he's healthy... This is perfect, though, because it's just the Urban Meyer playbook. He's going to do media for a year and then be like, I hate this so much because it means that he has to talk and smile, two things he's not capable of doing, and then he's going to go back and coach... boom, USC next head coach or Notre Dame.

Jim Harbaugh is in actual trouble at Michigan because he can't get his team emotionally prepared for Ohio State

I think [Jim Harbaugh] is in actual trouble at Michigan... He doesn't have those guys emotionally prepared to play Ohio State, whereas Urban Meyer makes a bunch of kids from Florida and all over the country somehow hate the state of Michigan to a level that, like Jim Harbaugh, it feels like every time they get to that big game, they fall completely flat.

Alabama will kill Kyler Murray and Oklahoma in the playoffs

They will kill Kyler Murray when they play... There's nothing like an Alabama team that feels slighted in any way, and this is just perfect.

I don't think there's going to be much debate, guys, at the end of the weekend... which I think [Alabama] would beat Notre Dame by 30 points.

The 2018 College Football Playoff will include Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson, and Michigan

The Final Four, if I'm projecting it out at the end of the season, would be Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson, in some order... And then Michigan. My top four now are Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson, LSU. But I'm projecting, obviously, that Alabama beats LSU.

Jack Coan will be the next great quarterback for Wisconsin

You have a quarterback on the University of Wisconsin roster that eventually is going to take over... His name is Jack Coan. He's a five-star... He's already there... He dominated football in Long Island... He elected to go to Wisconsin because... they brought all these other big offensive linemen in... and the coach said, look at these guys. They're your offensive line when you become 19 or 20 years old.

The Wisconsin Badgers season is officially over

The Badger season's over. They're a fucking dumpster fire. I'm done... don't ever think about getting sucked back into this Wisconsin season. They're chicken shit cowards and don't deserve your time or money.

Let's just say I think Ohio State's going to kill TCU on Saturday night.

Jim Harbaugh is officially on the hot seat if he loses to Notre Dame, Michigan State, and Ohio State in 2018

If he can't beat any of his rivals this year... that is going to be a problem. ... If you lose to Notre Dame, Michigan State, and Ohio State, you are obviously on the hot seat, whether it's fair or not.

Fortnite being a distraction will be the biggest story of the 2018 college football season

I think we can all agree the big story of the 2018 college football season is going to be coaches being mad about Fortnite. I think that is going to be the big overarching story every single week.
