Yes.
I've lived a long life without an Iowa quarterback. 25, I'm 26. 26 years. We've had some bright moments here and there. Shout out Ricky Stanzi. But we've got a quarterback. This was the top guy in the portal remaining. But still, very exciting.

Okay, so there was the John Batiste from Wazoo. People really wanted him. They wanted Jackson Arnold from Oklahoma, and they wanted our guy Mark. But we got him.

No, number one in my heart.

I think I'm kind of the minority in this where I think that rocks. We have seen so many times where great college quarterbacks have gone to the NFL and been terrible. Or so many times where you've been just electric in college football and hadn't even had the chance to go to the NFL. So like Quinn Ewers is a guy that's kind of had ups and downs this season.

We're not necessarily, I don't believe he'll be a fantastic NFL quarterback. So for him to get the chance to make as much money as he can right now, like I'm all for it. I want everyone to get paid and be happy.

Yeah, I liked this last round. I thought seeing what happened with Texas-Arizona State kind of made the expansion worth it. I still think we went a little too far overboard with 12 teams. I've been telling you guys that forever. But I also think kind of the biggest problem with the 12-team playoff, at least in the first round, was how everyone just wouldn't shut up about how much it sucked.

And I think that if we stopped talking so much about how it sucked, I think we would have enjoyed it more. I'm looking at you, all the ESPN announcers.

Probably Ohio State would have gotten left out. Two losses. And it's funny because Ohio State right now is kind of the team to beat. They look better than everyone else. And they feel like kind of a clear favorite right now to win the national championship. Which is like why this 12-team playoff or expanded playoff is better. Because potentially, we don't know.

Actually, I think last year is the perfect example. Georgia probably was the best team in the country. But they lost... two games and they were not able to go play in the college football playoff after losing the SEC championship. You're going to not run into that anymore where Ohio State might be the best team in the country, but they would have been out with the Oregon loss and Michigan loss.

So I do think that the expanded playoff has issues. I think they're fixable issues. I think seating's weird. I think the conference championship thing is weird. But for the most part, we are seeing maybe not the four best teams. I don't know if I'd put Penn State in there. But sorry, Penn State. You've been playing well. I don't know why I'm shitting on you. That was unnecessary.
