Hey baby Redwood house to the podcast beyond Black history month is reason number 568 million of value should be listening from in-depth reporting on the shortage of black sperm how one house of the Dragon star is dealing with online trolls who don't love seeing black Dragon riders lose sleep over the word about things that are beyond my control described young black history month on the Odyssey or whatever you get your podcast hey baby Redwood hosted the podcast beyond Black history month. There's reason number 568 million of why you should be listening from in-depth reporting on the shortage of black sperm how one house of the Dragon star is dealing with online trolls who don't love seeing black Dragon riders lose sleep over the word about things that are beyond my control described to be like a month on the Odyssey app or whatever you get your podcast for the boys are not overly ostentatious studios of CBS sports radio here in beautiful New York City sitting on top of the 10 4345 Hudson St., Waccamaw then to a time Monday edition of the Zach Gelb show across all the great local CBS sports radio billiard Sirius XM Gen. 158 and that free Odyssey app. 855-2124 CBS over to jump on in 855-212-4227. He could always get at me on Instagram were on straight, flexing, or via the Google cesspool Twitter Zach Gelb that the ACH GE LBB are coming to you live from the rocket boarded studios need to know it takes her home to fit your budget and your family well. Rocket can a whole lot to react to him over the weekend. Down goes Alabama down goes USC down goes Oklahoma State and in the NFL. It was a crazy week six NR six Sunday of the year as there is a whole lot of teams that we thought were so good who are not bad and a lot of teams that we thought were to be really crappy this year that are now exceeding expectations, and changing the expectations that you had before the year did commence, and I have to start off with one game. Don't you worry, we will talk about bills cheese will talk about the Philadelphia Eagles is the only loan undefeated team remaining but I have to start the show today with the Baltimore Ravens losing to the New York football Giants so I got two thoughts on this number one Giants are now locked to make the playoffs, and number two the Baltimore Ravens they can't find a way to close the game to save their life right now. This is a team that they probably should be six and no and their three and three.

I knew a lot of teams in the NFL that have at least three losses already and were only six weeks into the season, depending on what happens tonight you're looking at 16 teams right now that have at least three losses in the NFL season, but you look at what transpired between the Giants and the ravens. It's once again the Giants being resilient and the Giants having a heck of a coach right now would win the coach of the year and brined datable and any time the Giants looked down and out with the roster that is not all that talented. They find a way to create a spark. They did so against the Titans in week one down 13 at half time. They did so last week, down 17 to 320 to 10 at two different stages of the contest up against the Green Bay Packers and yesterday they go up against the Baltimore Ravens and was a back-and-forth game but when the ravens got 20 to 10 and the fourth quarter you're thinking it and I'm thinking it turned out the lights, the parties over but once again, this Giants team and the wink Martindale revenge game they find a way to get done and it's not like I could put my finger on one thing and tell you the Giants are a sexy team. The Giants have a bevy of players that you feel great about leading into the future and sure came on Thibodeau's a stud at the Niels the start Andrew Thomas. The offense alignment is really good but you know what the long-term future is Daniel Jones Orsay Quan Berkeley but it just shows you when you have an adult in the room what he could do for a football team and the Giants lost their way. The last 56 years and it was ugly, a once proud franchise was not only knocked down but they were dragged around the ring and they were embarrassed they were a national laughingstock. The New York Giants, the New York Giants, when you had back into her suit was too big.

Yet, Pat Shermer, who was a bozo. I was like the choice to become the head coach and there like we love that Shermer and yeah Joe George Cosmo's character is that all the buzzwords but you never saw it actually be reflected on the field and you bring in brined datable, who along with Joe Shane have continuity. They have respect and they actually know what to do in building a football team. This is your number one for the Giants in this new regime. This is a Giants regime that there was no pressure there was the expectations you number one is a wash and if you wanted told me before the year that six weeks in I would've thought that the Giants would be a lock to make the plastic. I would say what the bleep are you smoking there was no way I would've thought before the year we would never have a legit playoff conversation about the Giants but I said this yesterday on I am football that they just when like three out of their last but next five games 3708 or nine wins by Thanksgiving, and yesterday based on everyone once again beat the Baltimore Ravens. So now this team is five and one in their next four games. Jacksonville, Seattle, Houston, and the Lions you take three out of four eight and two at Thanksgiving and this is not a strong NFC. This is not a dominant essay we saw last or the Philadelphia Eagles just go nine and eight and they made the playoffs. You get to nine wins. You'll be in the postseason and I don't see a way right now with the way that this team competes and fights for their head coach how the Giants are to miss the playoffs. I thought this Giants team but maybe when five wins at most this year. Six of everything goes right there already.

Five and one to the first six weeks of the season and it's not take. It's not an overreaction.

Coaching in this league matters and they have a newfound energy, a new download and a newfound life and the New York Giants are not winning the Super Bowl this year. When the division Philadelphia is the best team in the division. Dallas is better than them when they had their quarterback back press got to get on that stupid quarterback controversy with the way the Cooper Ross play last night, but the Giants will be a playoff team because even if they drop one or two of these decks for their still going to be in great position by Thanksgiving, even if they go to them to in these next four games of the Jaguars, the Seahawks, the Texans and the Lions that puts them at seven wins seven by Thanksgiving, and you still have two games left against the crappy commanders you have the Eagles in the last week of the season. Who knows what back into the main four Philadelphia you play the Colts. They're not that good of a football team. So this Giants team will be in the playoffs and I know we can all look at the roster.

I know was trending on twitter yesterday was five and one team member on the one saying there great team, but they were team that finds a way to be in every game, and even when they look like they're about to get knocked out. They then start the pro counter punches and you have no response. So that's will save at the Giants, heck of an effort by the Giants Giants are going to playoffs this year.

No, on the other side. If, on the fate of the Baltimore Ravens. I'm sick to my stomach because Baltimore has tease you all year. This team should be one of the better teams in the NFL. This team should be a Super Bowl contender when you have Lamar Jackson who is a great football player but don't you think that defense Mrs. Earl defensive coordinator and wink Martindale because I don't know what the heck is happened to this defense. It's inconceivable to me for this Baltimore Ravens team. Six weeks into the season not to just be three and three but to blow three big leads not one, you couldn't find a way to finish not one you can find a way to get back in the football game and overcome a little bit of adversity.

This team is up 35 to 14 in the fourth quarter against Miami dolphins, 142 38, the ravens them are up 20 to 3 in the second quarter against the bills. The best team in the league in Buffalo comes back 23 to 20 you couldn't get another touchdown.

A field goal just to get that payment over time. And then yesterday 20 to 10 and the fourth quarter, up against the Giants and the Giants and supporting 2420 John horrible right now. You better fix this and you gotta fix it quickly because if you miss the playoffs back to back years with the more Jackson that would be an embarrassment award in the world got into that defense they're spotting you huge leads and you can't finish all make the argument.

This Baltimore Ravens team should be undefeated. The way that were talking about the Philadelphia Eagles. The Buffalo Bills that's what we should be talking about Baltimore but were not because that defense with the game on the line that defense with the lead turns into Swiss cheese that defense couldn't stop a nosebleed with the lead right now. It's crazy and is unbelievable how bad that defense becomes when they get a lead and I don't know if they just shut down and get complacent and think the game is over or there's maybe a mental block with what's happening in their first two losses were all the sudden you get a lead and it's then all that now, we gotta keep up that intensity and we lost that game up against the Dolphins lost that came up against Buffalo and they panic and just make mistakes but that is bonkers and this world that the ravens are three and three and if I would've told you been up 35 to 1423 2010. In those three laws that you would never thought a million years. They were lost all three of those games but here we are. You look at this NFL season so far it's wacky and it's crazy that jets are foreign to Jets fans are actually confident right now you got the Packer struggle you got the rams they win yesterday about like the loss Tom Brady is Robert Pratt's wedding on Friday night. He was a no-show to the game yesterday that Buccaneers offense has not found a rhythm with Brady the Tom Brady at a single point this season to the first six games were talking about teams but rather the beginning of the NSA. Only 13 to get to the Super Bowl, Packers, Buccaneers and Rams. We have to have legitimate conversations about those things may be missing the playoffs.

So right now there's a poll question today at Seco Z ACH GL B could also find it at CBS sports radio between these four teams who are you most concerned about ravens Packers box or rams. Early returns 10.3% to the ravens 12.8% to the rams, 16.7 go to Tampa Bay Buccaneers and then running away with this, and you don't want to run away with this poll question 60.3% say the Green Bay Packers when the Packers made that deficit. They had the 17 to 10 yesterday I thought okay be simple jets. Another jets are young Ross with a lot of talent, Packers would come back and when that legendary Lambeau Field. No, they lost yesterday and the Jets dominated them so the Packers get to wells from the Giants and the Jets and back to back weeks. You look around at these four teams there's a difference. One big difference if you grouped together the ravens the box in the rams and you isolate the Green Bay Packers.

The Baltimore Ravens should so probably when their division you'll get Baltimore.

No one else really intimidates you, and that AFC North steel is a tuning fork. Congratulations that be damp yesterday. The Browns defense is horrible and the bangles that the come-from-behind up against the saints when the Saints are without Crystal Labbe, Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry only a call from Dennis Albee for the game – Katie to be wide receiver for the New Orleans Saints and the bangles need to come from behind the lines horrible Trey Hendrickson made a bone that applied a terrible roughing the passer after the saints and back to back to back penalties garden 25. The ball is thrown for 10 yards and then you clobber the quarterback so much as that bangles team anymore. Baltimore said so when the division then you look at the NFC South panther sock saints stink Falcons. They fight the three and three of the Falcons had to get the 910 wins no soda bottle and that division ravens also when their division.

The boxes that were working on their division, then you get into the NFC West and the NFC North and those two teams, 100 and be my answer no most concerned about is at the rams or is it the Packers. I do think the 49ers are going to win the NFC West but they just lost yesterday to the Atlanta Falcons. I don't care if you're missing nine defenders you lost to the Falcons and now you go up against next week appeal Kansas City team. I know that gains in Santa Clara but Kansas City coming off a loss. I love Kansas City this upcoming weekend. Yeah, the rams offense looks horrible. Yeah the line stinks. You would think Aaron Donald Jaelyn Ramsey and Cooper cup are good to get the 49ers a run for their money. But in the NFC North the Vikings whether you think there is greater the record says they are not there. Five and one and that offense can put up points with Justin Jefferson with Cooper with Galvin Cook you have Adam feeling Kirk cousins when you enough games like I legitimately think six weeks into the season. I would not those for the start of the year that the Vikings or when that division. So you're good to have the Green Bay Packers having to battle and fight it out for wild-card spot this year and their line stinks right now. Rogers has no chemistry with these wide receivers.

You wonder how invested Rogers is an act Green Bay defense that we thought turned the corner last two years is now started take a step back and they look like they missed the Darius Smith so I'm concerned about Green Bay and the Rasmus and a blouse but had to pick between one I think there's a better shot that the rams make the playoffs because that when their division compared to at this point Green Bay finding a way to improve and then take down the Vikings arty have a good head start at five and one you most concerned about between these four teams, ravens, Packers box grams 855-2124 CBS 855-212-4227 it is that cultural coast-to-coast on CBS sports radio only come on back may be the biggest off-season acquisition of the year came up in a big way. Yesterday we talked about next hey baby Redwood hosted a podcast beyond Black history month.

There's reason number 568 million of value should be listening from in-depth reporting on the shortage of black sperm how one house of the Dragon star is dealing with online trolls who don't love seeing black Dragon riders lose sleep over that worried about things that are beyond my control, listen and subscribe to beyond like a month on the Odyssey app or whatever you get your podcast. Whatever. My guess is hopefully a new podcast number with Stephen a Smith. Listen as I pull back the curtain on everything the world of sport interviewing influential just outspoken celebrity thought leaders across the political, financial and social spectrum.

People at O'Reilly auto parts. I think one thing is clear through the first six weeks of the NFL season. The three best teams in the NFL in the water. The Philadelphia Eagles, Buffalo Bills, and even though they lost yesterday. It still the Kansas City Chiefs but that Buffalo team. It wasn't a revenge game yesterday and I said that on Friday, I'll say it again, a lot of people go all revenge game you gotta win that game and that it will wipe away what happened in the FCR division around master no-nonsense because of the same thing last year after they lost in AFC championship game two years ago heading into that regular-season matchup revenge game revenge game revenge game for the bills and the bills embarrassed the cheese and arrowhead 38 the 20 then in the postseason.

You all know what happened that delete 13 seconds to go.

No squib kick my homes right down the field field goal. Coin toss can city wins than Kansas City gets Travis Kelsey. In the end zone and they went didn't really get any revenge from that playoff lost because you lost again in the postseason but yesterday's game was important for one reason and one reason only because right now when it's clear the two best teams in AFC or Buffalo in Kansas City if they tie at the end of the year with the same record the road to Glendale Arizona for the Super Bowl Super Bowl LVII will travel while Orchard Park and through Buffalo so you have to go into Buffalo where the fans spraying ketchup and mustard and wing sauce and jumping through tables and it being a raucous atmosphere to then go to the Super Bowl and I do believe the bills will be the number one seed. I do think that the bills are the best team in football. No disrespect to Philadelphia. No disrespect to Kansas City but I said this in the off-season.

I said at the Brandon beam when he joined us on the show that Von Miller going to Buffalo probably was going to be the biggest off-season acquisition be true that I were considering everyone talk about the Montana governments talk about Thai retail ever was talking about Russell Wilson to Sean Watson. The two that I were looking at was the Bengals three offense alignment they brought in Harris Collins.

They have not performed well but you need to protect your borrower and the other was Von Miller because Von Miller is the missing piece for the Buffalo Bills to win a Super Bowl and the reason I say that is because he has Super Bowl experience. He's 12 rings and he has a MVP Super Bowl MVP and you look last year and that playoff game. The Buffalo Bills with the have the lead and the game was over 13 seconds ago ran around like a bunch of chickens that just had their heads cut off. There was no voice of reason there was no calm presence, and there was no person on that defense were number one rated defense in the league that stepped out and made the play when necessary. Von Miller was brought in to be that missing piece to win the Super Bowl, and you saw it yesterday because everyone gets caught up with deed to Ron Johnson interception at the end of the game.

Emma Holmes panic. He threw the ball away too quickly and emit an ill-advised throw. The reason why he did that was because Von Miller was breathing right down his neck and he had to panic and throw the ball away. That's what you give Von Miller all those years. That's why you give Von Miller all that money and in a huge game. The biggest game of the season so far up until this point in the entire NFL Von Miller not only showed up but he bawled out and he bawled out with the game on the line to secure the victory and you saw yesterday what the bills are missing last year. Now you have to still find a way to get to the Super Bowl win the Super Bowl because as I told Brandon being I know we won't say it. This is Super Bowl or bust, and on my talk about is getting there bringing home the Lombardi trophy to Buffalo this year. It is Super Bowl her boss and there's a lot of uncertainty in the NFL. The most complete roster in the NFL is the Buffalo Bills. They have maybe the best quarterback in the league.

You have a top-five wide receiver in the league give Stefon Biggs his praise and his credit, Gabe Davis is starting to become a superstar. That is how good Dave Davis as he could be a number one wide receiver on a whole lot of other teens, Dawson Knox comes up with the big clutch play that offense of wine is good, anchored by Dion Dawkins, the defense is so well-rounded only concern that you have is, are you asking Josh Allen to do too much.

Now we are Dion Dawkins on the show on Friday because that's a game plan that's the way we decided up. It's all intentional. Don't be concerned by that was present in maybe Buffalo should go on out there and get Krista McCaffery and James Cook motor single Terry Zach Moss step up and deliver when you need to at the end of the year to run the football that I don't know but that's their only floor right now. The first six weeks of the season is your asking Josh Allen right now to be your leading rusher by voting for the best game yesterday there were a lot of mistakes on that game was what was going the right thought it was going to be in both teams made mistakes early on.

Allen fumbled the ball away my home soon interception their mistakes to be made in Kansas City right before the end of the half did what they did and there's a divisional game went right down the building on available and in that moment. Or send them your wonder which way was to go and Buffalo in a back-and-forth game at the end got the lead scored a touchdown. There was a lot of time left and Von Miller stepped up and made a play Hickey is on the bills fan I know it's only six weeks and I know this is an organization that they been dead for the last two decades. They been teased though and that Ron where they went to back to back to back to back Super Bowl with Jim Kelly and lost all four bone.

You gotta be on cloud nine if your Buffalo team today and your Buffalo fan today acknowledges because you won the game up against Kansas City. It's the way that you won and we have to start giving Brandon being more credit because the roster that he's assembled in Buffalo and you have Sean McDermott there who's a tremendous coach in this league and waited years and years and years for his opportunity. The coaching in the development of these players and how many players are now starting to ball out of play and elite level at the right time it just the perfect storm for Buffalo to finally deliver those passionate, loyal, amazing fans, the first-ever Lombardi trophy. I knew said at the way they want. I think is even more poor than the wind itself. You get.

I was interception to close it up. You hold Patra homes down for the worst games of the season it without Terry Kelly seems offense matter who it is running backs receivers Titans may contributions make big plays so far this year, so it's nice the defense after last year I was there to make it any better than you know. Ease any of the pain you feel from last January, but the style makes you believe it okay we are one step closer kind of writing that wrong from last year and also to you mentioned. They desperately need to get more home playoff game fishing, playing as a Chiefs. Holmes is never played in a rope left him his career you need them, both for this year. Now when get you one step closer to making that a reality. I went to a wills playoff game last year as the patriots bills that atmosphere -2°. I've never seen anything like it and I lived in Philadelphia when the Eagles won the Super Bowl and I live two blocks from the art museum were the parameters those bills fans bills and Eagles fans that Super Bowl this year that may be the craziest atmosphere between Eagles fans and bills fans at the NFL has ever seen. Because they're kind of the same breed of fans and you saw the atmosphere last night in Philadelphia. It was unbelievable but being that a bills playoff game that was right before the game.

They bring out current Thomas and they bring out Jim Kelly and I looked at my buddy Ray and where there is pager fans and I go oh were screwed just with the roar of the crowd right from the jump.

When you bring out those two bills legends and if you let the goal to -2° Buffalo or 5° Buffalo to get a nice little weather day depending on what team comes in right off the bat. That's a huge advantage like the Los Angeles Chargers have to go to a divisional round game up against the Buffalo Bills. I love Justin Herbert, I love Austin Eckler. I love Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are those guys to be as high-octane of an offense as they can be in Buffalo. No. And those fans will just make that place so loud following on Instagram last night. The bills players go back to the airport.

This is week 6.6 and you have thousands of fans at the airport windup chanted him for Josh Allen and watch all the players get off the plane to their cars and then doing the let's go Buffalo chicken that was enormous because the only team that could potentially tie you record wise in the AFC this year is the cheese and how you have the tiebreaker and I look at the AFC right now.

You can only really feel good about two teams, the bills and the cheese of the Jets are nice story of foreign to the Dolphins and start a slowdown of the get to back their three and three Bailey's abbeys and I still run but the patriots on a damn good team this year. The Chargers, whatever you expect them to do something positive. The charger, the Broncos think the writer stink.

The ravens can't save, close out the game ends up protectively to save their life. The Bengals offense align is in a horrible state and you don't trust anyone AFC South by glitches wind up the AFC championship game right now unless you have some crazy upset happen the policies, which always happens, but I would be pretty stunned if we don't get bills and Chiefs and in the AFC title game in the bills with a once in a can citizen when Nancy was in the be a two-seat and for the first time yesterday rhyme and I don't want to overreact too much year, but you did see the importance of one Thai retail to Kansas City with him not being there if they have tiebreak they may win that game yesterday and out tie refills on pace to break that the most yards receiving a single season, and a base of more yards and Calvin Johnson was in line with the quarterback for Tonga by Lola and Teddy Bridgewater and Skyler Thompson. I thought yesterday they missed Tyree kill and I know that could be reactionary. I know that could be in the moment because for most of the season. They have the miss Thai retail not be able to survive in force without him. I thought though against a great team like Buffalo you real rival the one team that stand in your way. They could use Tyree kill yesterday. I thought exposures. Having that threat alone of him go deep taken the top of the defense that we saw open up a burial conference.

These right now just there was no really no reason to be scared to Buffalo that summer to go deep and take the top off as he can play more aggressive and kind of no abuse receivers personalize courage.

Easier said than done. And we know more homes to run around them homes can turn garbage into gold over and over and over again.

If you're going up against Kansas City are defense their number one emphasis should just be Travis Kelsey as much respect as I had the Patra homes and he could probably get those other guys if you get beat by the other wide receivers I can live and die by that just can't allow Travis Kelsey Beecher, we saw the raters regulate seven catches and four touchdowns, about 25 yards receiving. You just can't allow Kelsey to take over the game and if you do that you'll be able if you have a high-octane offense in somewhat of a good defense be able to be Kansas City this year so man of your Buffalo Bills venue jumping up and down like that kid in a candy store. It is that guilt show on CBS sports radio only come on back water weekends in college football. Down goes Alabama Tennessee wins typical pack 12 down goes USC Utah wins Oklahoma State Ashoka job up against TCU, TCU, the horned frogs undefeated with their football coach Sonny Dykes. When we look to the race of four teams remaining. How is this get to play out the rest of the way who's good to be the college football playoff this year will examine that on the other side was ever my guess is hosting a new podcast number with Stephen a Smith.

That was the first great and I don't use that word often a great weekend. We had this year of college football work from noon to the final game. It was must-see TV, big time teams college football playoff aspirations on the line and there was no game that was ever over ideal, like Tennessee was going to run Alabama out of the building that Alabama looks like there to win the game.

They missed a field goal and the next thing you know, with 15 seconds, Hendon Hooker, are you kidding me gets that team and field arrays about you a key. I thought that Tennessee was good missed a field goal.

I still can't believe how that cake wasn't blocked or how that kick went past the crossbar. It was a knuckleball. It was not a shortcake so lacking was wild.

Unfortunately thoughts and prayers. Hickey's Penn State Nittany lines did not show up in man that defense just got carved up by that Michigan rushing attack and then you look at the other two big games.

I told you I was most excited for Oklahoma State TCU and an ice.

I guarantee that that game is good to be close. I thought Oklahoma State was good. I waited for a while. Oklahoma State was good to be the superior team and the next thing you know that games and over time, and I know TCU scores first Oklahoma State didn't have a touchdown in the second half, which is inconceivable to me and to settle for so many field goals every time you looked up you thought your scene a field goal attempt for Oklahoma State. I thought and I and I'm not usually Mr. analytics, I'm usually okay. Take the extra point on the road and over time, your offense has been cooking in the second half I thought Gondi was good to go for two and try to win the game right there. He doesn't. They then go back on offense. They get the field goal and TCU gets the game-winning touchdown and a heckuva job by Sonny Dykes in his first year at TCU and always been around for other.3.

Other times, the head coach in college football but to be undefeated and take that Oklahoma State that was just magnificent and then you take a look at the USC Utah game great atmosphere in Utah.

But USC I thought they were good. Once again, just embarrassed not going into the game going to be a good game, but US even when would it look like USC was given a blowout Utah and they probably should have an Utah such a frustrating team because on paper before the year they were almost everybody's pick in the pack 12 people are saying legit college football playoff contender.

You lose right at the goal line to start off the year up against Florida were terrorizing throws the football to the other team and get you take a glance at that that one of the losses well and I'm thinking man going into this game. Yes, I do believe USC should win but it would be typical pack 12. As you get Utah who was on paper the better team going into the year party with two losses.

Find a way to win the game and they did find a way to win the game and it was all because of one player and one player only and that was cam rising, he was sensational with the touchdown. The two-point conversion he took matters into his own hands and they get the victory 43 to 42 and I'll love love love love and I thought it was the right call where you're going up against you once USC yard have two losses on the year you get the touchdown and then you go for two and you go for the when you have nothing to lose because even if you lose that game.

Yeah, I know that you still try to get tobacco championship in all that but your college football aspirations are already shot and out the window.

I thought it was a great job by Kyle Winningham to go for two and I was surprised to the other game that Mike Gundy didn't go for to your thoughts to keep on both those scenarios. I guess I be disingenuous said that I liked Utah go over to it in mind. Oakland was a knock over to so that said, I guess I have do walk back or redevelop my thinking because you're right with the games going second-half down there with TC like it was one of those.

Both teams are than losing to Okemos and USC house. He lost that game then would you race out to an early lead Xmas with the placer quarterback with were making Randy and Caleb link between this out. He was a chief code with the waves right around stop on a dime on the ball crossbar body.

30 yards down the field.

He was a chief code and they lost the game making some huge throws in filling any time either Utah or TCU got some mentor made a big play to try to get back in the game boom there Spencer Sanders. There is Caleb losing a big throw a big run and they just kept pulling momentum away and then mixing OSHA's tie game going over time and you know was TCU and Okemos seizures still honesty. This this day, 40 hours later.

I don't know how Okemos a loss. I still can't believe USC lost Oklahoma State was up 24 to 13 at half time.

First Drive added 1/2 to get a feel goal 27 to 13 TCU answered back in the field will make a 27 to 16 then they get a feel goal when they're up 30 to 16 with theirs you were in the fourth quarter because then you had a point-to-point and that TCU touchdown didn't come until 922 left. It started 23's you could see it come back than Sanders throws a peck you pumped again you pumped again. The fact that that game gets into overtime.

You lost all momentum offensively, and in that spot TCU gets a touchdown. You then answer back knowing that you take the PAT, you go right back on offense.

I would just say let's lineup. We had a game last year of the big 12 championship game was right at the goal line. I would just said what's goal for the two gun didn't do that. That is think it's appealable.

TCU walks it off with the touchdown especially when you're on the road to and you lost momentum. I couldn't believe in the moment and this is not me second-guessing in the moment I watch night game on same goal for to go for to go for two and I'm usually against it, but it was just the field and they didn't go for two and I thought it ended up costing them up with a bunch of other things. But in that decision you could got all them went tobacco on the game right there one shot I would.

I would've done it and then you see Winningham on the reverse side of it that game was looking like that USC was go blow them out, especially when it's 28 to 14. The night game gets good back and forth in the inner crazy second-half touchdown touchdown touchdown Utah rising put the team on his back and you basically just wrote your big course.

All throughout that fortune 15 yards passing two touchdowns through the air and on the ground at 60 yards rushing and three rushing touchdowns and five touchdowns in the game an adult indicate the tight end that the nice job and he got hurt late 16 receptors are 34 yard door 34 yards and a touchdown, but that game was one because cam rising said, one must lose another close one on not letting us lose another heartbreak like the way that we lost the Florida the way that UCLA beat us by 10 points. II thought Winningham the aggressiveness was the perfect moment for the game and cam rising stepped up in a big way now you get into the tricky part of this conversation. What happens here on out in the college football playoff. First off, what we saw her this weekend so that would use all really getting college football and make this point.

When you have big time games.

I love when they're actually on the school's campus because imaginative Alabama Tennessee was at a neutral site imaginative USC and and Utah was at a neutral flag in its conference game.

So using those conference games are at the homeschool when you have big game like that. The atmosphere this weekend at Knoxville was insane. The atmosphere in Utah insane it was. It was just great college crowds, but now look at the college football playoff picture here my thoughts. One Big Ten teams get it Michigan's good to be undefeated at the end of the Ohio State could be undefeated the end of the year. Whoever wins the game is good to get into the college football playoff to SEC teams are still dedicated and the two you could pluck from Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, not Tennessee still plays Georgia let's say Tennessee loses in your Tennessee football fan driven rooting for Georgia to the SEC title game.

Assuming Alabama doesn't drop another game and bam is in that SEC title game for Bambi. I went out but you will get to teams in one way or another.

Out of a combination of Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama and I guess you can even throw Ms. into the conversation CL crazy to get with Ole Miss in the job that Jackson dark and link up and are doing and then that final spot. I don't think Clemson in terms of resume is deserving, but they're going to go undefeated in there to when the ACC and Clemson probably does get in, you look at the way the big 12 is played in the Paxil displayed this year during any one team in the back 12 or the big 12 to go undefeated and you arty have teams that have had hick ups and have stumbled, but the pack 12 in the big 12 are by far and away better than the ACC this year.

However, if Clemson goes undefeated there probably maybe not right. Number four because you got to see what happens where they rank the SEC team and and where that goes. There probably could be that 14 men in terms of if you tell me to SEC teams are getting in and also Big Ten team is getting I'm fascinated. See the discussion between Clemson if you can gets closer, undefeated UCLA was another to understand what I give the edge UCLA TCU 50 had to teach you the better quality wins. If he ever won lost care how that works. Those conferences just beat up on one another. Whenever you ride the momentum with one of the schools are picked over the pack. 12 then the blues and again that they shouldn't lose so that there be a debate. One was big 12 champ one more respectful champ against undefeated Clemson and you know what the committee get a gold dust dabbling to jungle IN the parliament. So what you need.

We need the weenie Clemson to lose again. That's what we need weenie concert to lose again because I do think the big 12 teams in the pack 12 teams this year are just better than what the ACC has to offer is that guilt show on CBS sports radio news brief next house.
