Sorry, but while you been door will have a bond doing great. I gotta start off with Clemson. The offense line was horrible. Receivers drop in football's left and right digit long delay did not play well look at the future of constant football for the season, because I would greatly at the game last night right here in Atlanta. All people are like you mentioned did not play well the Joe to take the van door. They laid the light all start, but also gotta get Craig to take the they stepped up and made plays they make that Clemson office look silly and about 953 and second quarters when Pleasant Valley got there first touchdown, but I think it was a four block client.

I think they were struggled throughout, they gain the rest of the game. Just being honest. Good company receivers AT the be better DJs.

One place he has to be better as well.

The defense will Clemson actually held that team down. Moving for China figures in consideration they have a new office. According to have a new defense.

According to but a decent fitness of be the offense missed everything just like they with Mr. Lasher early in the season that he found a group last year. Late in the season of the middle of the year 20 and still wanting gain, but if they were playing an opponent. I'll think top 15 wordy last night that would've been that great philosopher Timothy just being honest for moving forward.

I'm hoping they can get you get it together but the more consistency at the quarterback position and we actually seen a little bit in the third quarter of the third quarter, all in within a day 32 situation BJ.

You made our outstanding play not getting set the bar back to Will Shipley would later go down to get a first down. The actually scored a touchdown. The drive amid 2014, but right now if any other team in the ACC. I'm looking at Clemson last I do say you know what God just like last year, we have a chance to win the ACC club Nick will eventually take over the jungle later this year.

Listen, he looked good when he came in last night and understood. I understand it was garbage time, but if DJ can't be consistent and start fasten football games.

If you dabble Sweeney units Clemson offense. You have to take a look at him talking Harry Douglas right now is that guilds on CBS sports radio.

It's so bizarre when you get impressed by the national champions on the first game this season when the defendant in their ground. I'm not telling you origin is a great team that your clear there weren't 11 best team in the country with the AP ranking was but man was I impressed in your with what George was able to do may invoke an ethical stance invented mainly for me. The defense will look like the deepest of last year and not with the talent but still being able to make plays and thrive.

They make Bowditch look silly. I am wondering at what point is bolded should be able to grow up to be the quarterback. Everyone expected him that the thing that the working out of Bowditch's career is him having that wing when he was at Auburn organ of the first game of the year so everyone has these high expectations and were watching his father wanted text out of Frank Sanders.

In the end zone to beat Florida what not. But when I look at George and I look just a bit. The young man. His confidence is on another level war so that it was last year and is confident that he has this year I've seen literally in one game last unit of the national championship. You know you got a new fresh cut.

He's walking around the different Penzance to himself and others love to see, and I even tweeted by God, joking a little bit but can't be serious to assistance a bit if I bought all the stuff you mosey this young man continues to play like this in the past the red advection milk to the Macintosh of the three tidy and deep with Gilbert brought flowers and Darnell washed it in the receivers that McConkie Mitchell, those guys that were not making plays another year within the system playing standout football. I think this offense is that at some point have to pick up some of the defensively because they did lose a lot of gossip National Football League.

You gotta think that it got in the context to fastening point that you bring up because usually when a team is a national championship.

We just wonder if they're going to be complacent the next season Stetson Betty got disrespected even headed into this season and I think that motivates that team a little bit because their sandwich. The national championship with the guy get that is credit well you know it was Labor Day weekend right. Monday was Labor Day and you know usually on holidays on Sundays and sending the mail delivered with a Cytomel made of the liberal holidays right I tell you one thing stepped up in the mailman delivered this weekend so if you deliver the mail on Monday which was yesterday late Harry Douglas here were thoughtfully get to LSU wanted demoralizing way to lose a football game scene from Brian Kelly here in your number one with the Tigers with his family as he was a body language. I think body language is everything your energy is everything right out. I don't like when players have bad body language in advance of the like it when coaches had every time I put the camera right Kelly is like his body language wasn't exciting. It was it energized somehow that will rub off on your football team within the post interview understand Claire. Gotta go out there make play but I need more accountability on the coaching side as well. Now he say I got a coach better, but I need more than talent to be a little stronger towards the coaching staff special-teams was horrible and I think only got actually changed with him from the name was the special-teams coach so special seems lost in that football game.

But did you see a guy like Chuck okay that's the best player offensively.

You need to finally begin the football. I don't care how you do it from the moment you start again for the moment again is over using the front figure out how to get the best played football by any means necessary questions of Brian Kelly's a good coach but you just wonder he's the right fit and LSU. It seems as if he's trying too hard will come from down south and in a bit up north to places down south of the total different ball in the North Abby the first to tell you is Southern hospitality. People eat, sleep and poop football and they want you to win a wheelchair about anything down here it's about winning and yesterday LSU lost a football game that they should have one.

And now, right now fans are all on another level. Douglas right now. I love that I saw from Anthony Richardson what you think the ceiling in Florida this year so a lot of people are just now getting on the Anthony Richardson train I was on the train early last year when I say Dan Lovett should not have been planning and regional initiative and plan Anthony Richardson the young man 642 30 between two 3235. Reminds me of a guy named Tim.

I think he is more athletic and cam Newton I think mechanically he's a little bit better as well. But when you have a God who is running the spread out to Billy lately I think is the perfect marriage clean him and if Richardson this won't think it's a problem a lot of people. They have a game coming up this weekend against Kentucky. We all remember what happened last year at the Lexington Kentucky Wildcats went crazy what didn't remember thinking that didn't the game on it exactly Richardson the quarterback. He's looking forward to this game this weekend at the swap to right opponent CCE show down. I can't wait to see if Anthony Richardson will be a top candidate in next year. Mark my work you say top 10 pack 20 B may be the number one overall pick could he jump a shroud could he jump Bryce young there's a possibility to think about those two guys is that you have a few days travel ethic is phenomenal. You see Notre Dame go cover zero blitzing in the third quarter when Ohio State was down 17 is the day throughout the cipher book" touchdown in a moment. What he really needed it. You see them scramble and making unbelievable plays a role to continue drive. I think she's a strong fundamentals standpoint is a little bit above everybody else. And the wicked Bryce young. He has the tools saw this a little bit questionable by a lot of people.

Anthony Richardson. He has it all. I think more so on the mental side. Lisa get a little bit better not say that he doesn't have it.

That doesn't have it, but just need to get a little bit better and show people show official GM owners that he does have it and hesitant. And I think he has the potential to be an unwanted overall, Harry Douglas. The three best teams in the country. The three best teams Alabama Ohio State in Georgia.

How do you rank those three just the way you mentioned it will I'll go Alabama number one Georgia number two and Ohio State number three reason why God Georgia number two was that steps invented this often something to be a lot better.

I know one thing they hate coaches not to let that these things fall off Alabama good be number one for me.

I think they have, if not the best in college football talk to top three. You have playmakers and got a Heisman defensively.

I got the-the quarterback position.

But remember back when Matt Leonard won a Heisman in the following year Reggie Bush won a Heisman don't sleep owns you. I'm telling you even got I could do it. Rush the football if you do a return in the football and he also can do it in the past days of those people to this for now. As I tilts on CBS sports writer get back to the Florida Utah game.

I want to game that was in the flipside for Utah yet people talk about college football playoff. You start the year off their own interception right down at the goal line where the Utes go from here. First thing first to get understand that game came down today and so is not over for if they run the table and floor continues to win and slaughters right in a nice position that the end of season they can have opportunity at the text will champion.

Now they swear they still have to play USC leave except the organ is wealth or committee look good. USC have had Kayla Williams and Joe Addison Wunderlich, the cop awarded and Travis got a transfer from Morgan at the run of acquisition and Lincoln riding equipment whisper, so it's not bit tough sledding form. You don't want to lose you first gain what disappointing champ rising that last drive more so than anything that's that's a mistake.

I will probably expect Madonna, Anthony Richardson, who did make a mistake and did show up 18 moment champ rising when you have a field goal. Basically your back pocket through Orthodox football.

He got intercepted and you get a chance to find out to Michigan. I think Carbonell believes to go to JJ McCarthy.

I don't have free cupcake games to start the year.

I just don't get why they don't go to McCarthy right now and the continued rock 'n' roll came back yet. I don't like the way they're doing it. If you go to if you want to go to God going over the gun may not understand what the issue is because Kate McNamara was about last session that won the Big Ten but as a head coach. If you feel like they think McCarthy is the guy for you and you feel like he's gotta get you over the hall that you start off the year with all this back-and-forth and we never know it is possibly not feeling it is what the locker room from cutaway at some point. Just go with who you're going wait until everyone else to gotta live with that decision. I really do that in China placate this game McCarthy that game because it may create some kind of friction not just between the quarterback between teaming to the locker room as well. The loyalty to some extent the Jim Harbaugh has because just won the Big Ten championship became McNamara.

What no one thought you were to do so.

Entering last season, but if you can't win the job out right after doing that. It's just it's so obvious he wants to go to McCarthy yeah so lash out at the Michigan State, Michigan game where they were when and bought a lot.

He tried the experiment JJ McCarthy in I'll call it BHU and got a ball intercepted.

Next thing you know this if they had come back and they come back with a football game.

I want to see Michigan doing things like that this year, choose who you want to go with. When that quarterback is playing the game is out of reach.

Did you play the back is hurting to go to the backup pickle quarterback stick with that quarterback and live with her decision. By the way, was the third best team in the SEC you know you like Alabama and Georgia. Zidane ever you go someone else. I think right now I will go A&M. The thing about the SEC right now.

When you have a floor that will be able to get this widget you have to touch you see how they're going to be this weekend versus the Florida all you have a Ole Miss you have a Mississippi state. You have Arkansas right now. I want to see about two or three more weeks from now how these teams start the pan out as we go to see their identities and what they really made of all three faded this office because this is also for Tennessee Pittsburgh I think that's to be good in this upcoming weekend. Well, that might get upset because I was at the backyard brawl and I thought Pittsburgh was at another level seen the way West Virginia placed them in knowing how the Tennessee love you simple with just I was there as as their head coach commonplace that something that Pittsburgh might struggle with, and Tennessee.

My end up coming out of this thing with victory thoughts and tumor games for this weekend South Carolina, Arkansas. I'm a little Arkansas a lovely sandpit is doing. Take the Jefferson he's the guy I'm looking forward to.

I love the way he played in game one against Cincinnati now want to see them do it again to suck a lot a gamecocks of the second game you mention the other.

Jim and Jim we know Alabama's good. When I think there's a way just how does Texas keep a close up against Alabama. It is not. This is not like what you said yes. I had a chance to watch them last night I watched the game three times in one. The thing that notices at Queens University going to have to start on the football to the patient right now young and he's waiting to see God open and the Inchon football versatile with anticipation in the probably cost him about three touchdowns now you passport there to include things like Alabama. If you do that you have doubted they will individually every second that she way: there football not just patient that that the situation for Hindley's fax you a cul-de-sac fumble.

You also have your that I have a more complex defense that you're going to get going against versus I think they play Louisiana Monroe right so capital with anticipation. I'm pretty sure Sark Sarkisian dinner telling a you can't wait to see Maria Teilhard out in the double and assuming that receiver is that in fact put in his that outside putting thing goes. Backup your debacle to be go. She held it for about another five or 6 yards it receiver ran in the phone and ball out of bounds last strap and opposes great job from ESPN only get to this inevitable 12 game expansion. That's good to be happening 2026 may be sooner than that. And do you like that the 12 team College football playoff. I do not think one of the main things that do, save ACC the big 12. The pact will write.

It's also going to solidify the Notre Dame doesn't have to join a conference because if you can make, football playoff while, why would you do it if you Notre Dame there indicated they make all kind of money right now at this as a stand also it would be good in the regards of Iraqis, ballgames, and when these players will begin drafting the first row second round. She did not have opportunity to play for NASA to efficiently set up again.

Now you have more teams and you have got to want to play because there is a common goal and I waited to let about his right 2000 and can't get a number was the Green Bay Packers and arouses Guardian beat within the last game of the year. Lastly, what they came to the Georgia Dome was out and went on to win the Super Bowl versus the Pittsburgh Steelers you just want to make the turn at that point. If you're into school just one big tournament and have opportunity because you never know what tenet you may be planned maybe right very, very hot, may hate it may have abounding, they may lose about injuries is no telling what can happen and you may be able to prevail in a way to move all and possibly go play for next shift gives championships with no telling what you have endured during the time the one thing though that I can't stand about it and not lie leaned on the side of more know that yes, what, when you have the number is 12 is like last you get Michigan Ohio State that was an all or nothing game in the regular-season driver week. The winter is good to have a chance to still get into the top for now the I know that teens always get to be important to the Michigan Ohio State fan but nationally I feel as if the importance of that game goes down a bit because the loser probably still gets in the college football playoff when you go to 12.

No, I don't agree you are really former appellee, there's this thing called pride and when you have a product you have pride as as a teammate as a player. The name on the front.

He observes his name on the back of your jersey if it is a ballgame and then these two schools only by committing to others may write Ohio State called the team up north. You don't want to lose that game because that's one game that you you want to win within our trust me, I promise. She was, this is not the end of the game at all.

Obviously the fans of Aeschylus to talk about the person that's not a miscue for not Ohio State fan. Just as a neutral viewer. That game isn't as important anymore because they would speak Ohio State to lose like it's a legal point, Michigan a few weeks later, but even better you get around to Ralph to put photo marble to go see the marble college football that all these regular-season games matter, yes.

But here's the thing in our largest market like donor, the fog is a book, good company and one of the things it in his book bullet points is you have to innovate continuously and that's just the way our world is working you have to innovate, you have to adjust to have to grow as all because football is present tense as always thanks much, but
