And I don't even know what I would declare.
I would want, do you want a competitive game?
Alabama, Oklahoma was competitive, but it was section close.
Interesting.
Not good.
Well, last year, Ohio state, Tennessee wasn't close, but it's because Ohio state was so good.
And so that's one of those things that we – it's an interesting contrast, particularly that 7-8.
And I am really curious what the next round gives us because even as you say this Oregon-JMU game is getting a little weird, it's like this – I don't think this first round feels like it's giving us great teams necessarily when last year it kind of gave us –
four great teams.
It gave us four semifinalists at the very least.
Maybe you don't consider them great, but nobody who played this weekend is on the level of what Ohio State, Notre Dame were last year.
You watched it the whole way.
I think that's right, and I do think, you know, I think if you see some sides of the ball that really interest you, I think that can be enough.
I don't, you know, Ohio State and Indiana at the top of this seating are two pretty complete teams, right?
They're both probably defense-first teams, but then, by the way, Ohio State has Julian Say and Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate, and Bo Jackson.
Everyone's defense-first in the playoff.
I feel a Bill Landis substack story coming.
You crafting something there, Philly Billy?
It's just very apparent, yeah.
That is very interesting to think about.
