00:00Let's get to our second game of three on Saturday. In Austin,
00:07it's the five-seed Texas in the bid stealer of the bunch. But
00:11despite winning the ACC Championship to earn that
00:15automatic berth to the college football playoff, no team, no
00:19coach has more experience ever in the history of the CFP than
00:24Clemson and Davo Sweeney as the twelve seats. You know, this is
00:28our largest spread of the opening round. It is the only
00:31number that is double digits plus. It's eleven and a half in
00:35favor of Texas. You look at the over under in Austin. Also,
00:40fifty-one and a hook. How do you approach the matchup between
00:43the Longhorns and the Tigers? It's a real tough game to cap
00:47to be honest with you. Um I I'm not in favor of laying eleven
00:50and a half with Texas. So, it'd be Clemson or pass from the
00:53side perspective for me. But there is a game script where
00:57Texas's defense which we saw is legit and choke out Georgia.
01:01They can do the same thing again here to Clemson. Like, I
01:04mean, in the opener of the of the season, Georgia's defense
01:08is probably the best version of itself all the way back, you
01:11know, 3 months ago. Um you know, limited Clemson to three
01:13points. Texas defense have been better than Georgia's all year
01:15long. There's a game script where where you know, Texas
01:19wins this thing thirty-one to ten. There's absolutely a game
01:22script where that happens. Where the whole thing stays
01:24under. Texas can cover. I think the game script that's least
01:28likely is for this to be a shootout. Like honestly, I
01:31don't know that it is. I mean, a shootout probably would favor
01:33Clemson and how much do you trust Texas's offense at this
01:36point when it was clearly again, not a great Georgia defense
01:39that they just couldn't seem to execute and take advantage of
01:43throughout the entire SEC title game and particularly in
01:46overtime. So, you know, I don't trust this Texas office at this
01:49point and furthermore, I really wanna trust Sark to lay double
01:53digits in these big moments when we've seen him come up
01:56short more often than not in these big moments. It's a real
02:00tall task. I mean, again, it's it's the game that I'm staying
02:03off of but I lean Clemson plus the points.
