00:00You know, you mentioned UCLA, and we were talking about them here a couple seconds ago here, and you're right.
00:06I mean, Chesney's done such a great job, and I don't want to dismiss anything that they've done this year.
00:12Are you buying them as a team, as a formidable team that can make some noise in the college playoff
00:17or not?
00:20I am not yet, but I will say we have all been kind of underrating them all season long.
00:28They're not only 9-0, they're 9-0 against the spread, and they're the only team in the country that
00:33has done that.
00:34So they have been better than people expect every step of the way.
00:38There are some issues, you know, red zone and a couple of things, but they run the ball extremely well.
00:44The defense has been very good.
00:45They get a lot of takeaways, and, you know, are they a team I would, you know, are they a
00:50top five team to win at all?
00:52I would say no, but I can't deny what they've done so far.
00:56I think they deserve to be where they're at.
00:59Who's done a better job of coaching this year and turning the programs around?
01:03The job at Kentucky or the job at UCLA?
01:08I'd say UCLA just because that program has just kind of been nothing for a very long time.
01:14Kentucky had some big seasons with Mark Stoops.
01:17He would regularly get them to bowl games.
01:19He beat Florida here and there.
01:21You know, they won 10 games not that long ago.
01:23Like, Kentucky has historically not been great, but they've been, like, pretty good the last 10 or so years.
01:29UCLA has just been forgotten.
01:30They're still kind of forgotten.
01:31I mean, you see the attendance at their games right now.
01:34It's been a problem.
01:35It's a very big issue for UCLA to kind of get up in a city like Los Angeles with so
01:41much going on.
01:42And I'd say what they've done in year one is remarkable.
01:45Now, again, they haven't beaten any great teams yet, but they're undefeated.
01:49And it's UCLA.
01:50We're talking about UCLA and they're relevant.
01:52And we didn't think that was maybe ever possible again.
