[00:01:18] Especially in college football and if you're like me College football is a huge part of our life. And so every Saturday Morning we get up we get ready and that we get ready for a big day of college football But with that being said

[00:01:36] Well, let's hold up on that. So if you're just joining in Welcome aboard. This is our launch night on Sportscaster. It's a great app to be on So we'll be talking college football. What will This 2020 season look like well, we even see a 2020 season

[00:01:59] First and foremost, we don't know But what I do what I can tell you right now is there's the big 10 the Pac-12 the Mountain West Conference Yukon Old Dominion Massachusetts all has canceled the 2020 season Mountain West Pac-12 big 10 plans on playing in spring of 2021

[00:02:23] Not a definite. I know I've been reading a lot on Twitter A lot of coaches are coming out and saying You know replaying from 20, you know starting in 2021 coming back then in the fall of 2021 That's gonna be a lot for our kids

[00:02:42] Recruiting so on and so forth again, you know, we don't know what the answer is to this the big 12 currently still meeting with their athletic directors in regards to Their 2020 season the SEC Is going forward

[00:03:02] The last I heard the ACC is trying to be in that same boat as the Southeastern Conference Some belt saying that they're gonna go forward now Interesting part. This is where things could get interesting For say the big 12 and in my opinion the big 12 of course

[00:03:21] Has had much success in the college football playoff Oklahoma Losing the Clemson losing the Georgia losing to Alabama losing the course LSU last season and they Practically a beatdown had George on the ropes let them go Clemson was a good game in the first half Alabama

[00:03:39] Course steamrolled in their game two years ago, but again you look at it The big 12 holds the key now What I mean by that is this Nebraska's willing now. I don't know how it works. I know TV revenue. I've heard, you know, there's TV discontracts galore

[00:03:57] I'm of course not in the legal process of that But teams are wanting to play there's rumors out there reports out there, Ohio State, Iowa Michigan, Wisconsin Penn State to Michigan State after Nebraska for Iowa You know, they want to play they want to place in football

[00:04:17] They're being linked to the big 10 I mean the big 12 of my apologies big 12 Now again how I don't know if they can switch I don't know that's like I said that's beyond my Beyond my expertise on that one. I know there's TV

[00:04:33] Contracts that grants these teams so on and so forth. I don't know if that has a lot to play in But just imagine this Nebraska course wants to come back so to speak quote-unquote come back

[00:04:48] If you're on sports cast you're welcome. This is my first night. I hope I'm Doing this pretty well. It's my first night pretty cool pretty cool. So welcome aboard So again, we'll see we'll see exactly what the big 12 the big 12 in my opinion holds

[00:05:04] Holds the key to college football They haven't had much success In the college football playoff Obviously have it won a national championship since 2005 when Texas beat USC and probably my opinion one of the best

[00:05:20] National championship games if not one of the best college college football games of all time Of course, Oklahoma back in 2000 I think was Nebraska when they were where in the big 12 losing to no one and getting steamrolled by Miami

[00:05:34] Probably the best team. Well, I guess I'll let you this past you probably beat them But one of the best Miami teams by four but To talk about the present The big 12 holds the key Big 12 and the reason why and here's why I say that

[00:05:51] You got teams are wanting to play football Now if you're the big 12 I've written some reports They expect the big 12 to to approve the 2020 season And to revise the season, of course the one non-conference game nine conference game, which they already play

[00:06:12] That's not even a not even a factor In it, but we'll see We'll see exactly what the big 12 decides to finally decides to do If you're the big 12, that's what I'm doing if I'm commissioner bulls we I'm reaching out to Nebraska

[00:06:33] I'm reaching out to Ohio State. I'm reaching out to Penn State Michigan I don't know how many you need. I mean they're obviously at 10. Do you go 16? Be that first mega conference for 2020 now

[00:06:50] Here's what I get as we as I look down my agenda list. We talked mega conferences Let's just play devil's advocate That Nebraska says hey this worked fine Horse coach Scott Frost had his opinion about commissioner of the big 10 today

[00:07:09] A lot of people are upset how the big 10 commissioner how not just a commission alone But the leadership alone of the big 10 conference West today they were

[00:07:19] Pretty upset, but I mean if you look at the contrary side, you got a virus that's definitely spreading like wildfire and you got to play both sides You look at the you look at the college football Just in itself

[00:07:35] This is could be the opportunity that the big 12 that the Other conferences need now I'm not seeing Ohio State. I won't say Ohio State's gonna jump to the AAC The American Athletic, I'm not gonna sit here and say that it's gonna jump to the conference

[00:07:52] That's not gonna happen. I mean if you're desperate to play then go for it. I guess go for it But this the big 12 was the key and this is where things could get interesting Packed well for example

[00:08:08] The big 12 can reach out to a lot of teams the sec could reach out still to an extent. I know they're already at 14 But first season why I mean why not the ACC of course with an order name Maybe they want to reach out. Don't forget BYU

[00:08:27] still a independent Team and pretty a decent caliber team They can give some teams some fits. I mean I'm looking to the big 12 in general and they're probably at least Fourth best fifth best team the conference behind Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Give or take

[00:08:51] Give or take Baylor depends on what kind of year they're having But the big 12 if I'm the big 12, I'm really going to use this opportunity I'm gonna vouch for the big 12. I live in big 12 country. I'm a huge Oklahoma sooner fan. I know the big 12

[00:09:08] I'm gonna be reaching out. I'm gonna be reaching out to that phone calls in Nebraska. I read a report by team Brando Barreling Nebraska and and in the big 12, I guess that door is opening. We'll see

[00:09:27] We'll see what that happens with Nebraska could Ohio State whole Ohio State sneak in My thing is if you do bring these teams in what happened to me again, you can't just spring in five six teams and

[00:09:42] Then keep your regular schedule and expect this to go by. I'll be perfectly fine with Oklahoma Eliminating and I'm not saying kicking Kansas to the curve, but let's replace Michigan with Kansas Let's replace Wisconsin with with

[00:10:00] Texas tech let's replace West Virginia with Ohio State or Iowa or Nebraska So on and so forth This is where the big 12 holds the key now We have the back 12 You got Arizona Arizona State USC UCLA not everybody's gonna be playing this year and I get that

[00:10:25] We still me like I said the big 12 may still come up here at 747 central time The big 12 may come up at 8 o'clock tonight here in 13 minutes and say we're done. We're not gonna do it That's it possibility

[00:10:42] Now I don't know on sportscast like I said, I'm new to this. I don't know if you can comment But if you do definitely feel free your thoughts and your thoughts in I love to To rate them let me know what you guys are thinking

[00:10:59] The question of the day and I will twitty back out follow me on Twitter on air with Mike follow the show air raid underscore podcast does the 2020 Season if it does happen for the ACC if it does happen for the big 12 The southeastern conference Could we see?

[00:11:23] The beginning of the mega conference The big 12 has a chance to make it Now what they do with it? I mean that's that's your own thing. I Wouldn't mind seeing Arizona Arizona State. I really would love to see the big 10 teams in here

[00:11:39] But for a year is this to be getting of what we all thought the mega conference was or here That could happen at this rate. I mean we got nothing like I said I'm going off Deep end if I'm the big 12

[00:12:00] Personally, I'm going after Nebraska bring it. I mean they're familiar with the conference. Of course, you know, they're not You know of course West Virginia TCU Was not in the conference at the time when Nebraska was but they're familiar with the conference for this year Bring them in

[00:12:19] Go after Ohio State if they want to play go after Penn State. I'd love to see Oklahoma go to happy Valley and And play Penn State We'll see If I'm the big 12 my final teams probably would be I push it to six. I would go Michigan

[00:12:39] Ohio State Penn State Nebraska Probably go Wisconsin Arizona Arizona State will be my six You bring in some of the West Coast mountain area you bring in the Northern teams that can play football Wisconsin of course ground run heavy galore Ohio State

[00:13:00] We all know that what kind of caliber team they are Michigan can have some good teams, but they just can't beat Ohio State and Nebraska's programs trying to get back on the winning side. They've found years here as of late, but

[00:13:16] You look out Arizona State to get up and come in program Arizona's trying to get back to at least where they were when Mike stups was the head coach of that Arizona But we'll see like I said

[00:13:31] It's gonna be interesting in my opinion the big 12 holds the key the SEC dominates the conference that dominates the college football world There is no way around it The SEC definitely dominates not taking anything away from them

[00:13:51] Thank you for the tips, I'm completely new to this on sportscaster so Help me out throughout. Yeah, I'd appreciate you guys Again if you're listening to the broadcast Sportscaster the launch of the show on sportscaster and this is pretty cool definitely download it and

[00:14:15] Talk talk all you want with sports fans. You can pick your specific topic team league whatever you're gonna do It's a great community to be a part of But going back to college football. We'll see the pack 12 again if you're just joining them big 10

[00:14:31] Pack 12 officially canceling the 2020 college football season And of course all fall sports as well and the Mountain West Conference Teams familiar if you're familiar with that conference if you're not Boise State San Diego State Air Force just name a few

[00:14:50] In that conference, they will be canceling as well. Of course Connecticut Old Dominion and Massachusetts Single teams will be canceling their season Mountain West big 10 pack 12 hoping to play in the 2020 2021 spring season

[00:15:10] Which brings to that let's talk spring season. We're looking at spring football now, of course we all are familiar Excuse me all familiar with Spring football in the United States has not turned out so well if you look at it this way I Wouldn't mind it on

[00:15:30] two reasons If you're not a baseball fan, it takes care of that It kind of fails the void from the NFL from the Super Bowl until you get You know, I mean I get I like the draft

[00:15:47] But to fill in you got the fill in until you get to training camp in August July August you got all kinds of opportunities now Bad part of that is this you got a follow-up With the fall season in 2021 Is it possible? Yes

[00:16:09] How would you schedule it I? Don't really know. I don't know how you would Schedule it if you were starting January can you imagine January football in Wisconsin? Michigan Talk about cold, Minnesota It's doable You would have to really really really Work and schedule that to a tee

[00:16:41] To get to where you can because you still got a recruit. Don't forget National signing days in February and you still got a recruit that's gonna take care of your recruiting. We'll see a Lot of questions a lot of answers still be asked still be answered

[00:16:59] I'm just giving you my thoughts on what the conference Conferences should do what college football should do I say Go with your good instinct. I mean Regardless, you're gonna be wrong according to somebody you can be right according to some people

[00:17:17] The SEC dominates again caught dog college football the big dogs trying to get their name recognition back To where it once was when Texas was dominant when Oklahoma was dominant the early night or the

[00:17:30] Mid 90s of course when there was the big eight that switched over to the big 12 when they expanded Nebraska even Colorado and 1990 even a and m in the early in the 90s team So we'll see if I'm big 12 Go be that risk taker

[00:17:49] The ACC is gonna be interesting. I think the ACC really is going to follow Suit on what the big 12 does I think I think the SEC is pretty I think the SEC is pretty sold on moving forward and Rightfully so a lot of coaches are putting in

[00:18:10] Inconsiderate of the considerate of considering I should say Of the players a lot of players come from a rough background city life so on and so forth The chances of catching it probably more of a higher risk, I know Nick saving mentioned it

[00:18:28] I know Joe Klatt mentioned it on his Twitter of Potentially has a higher chance of catching COVID than you probably would if you were on campus So I Think the SEC is gonna continue. I think the ACC is probably going to follow whatever happens with the big 12

[00:18:50] Big 12 by my personal opinion. I say big 12 continues. I Don't see the big 12 cancelling I think you're gonna see the American athletic. I think you're gonna see The big 12 the SEC the ACC I know conference USA. I know you get to Sunbelt

[00:19:11] So you're gonna have six conferences playing this year whether or not teams can move. I don't know I Have no idea if that's even possible like I mentioned earlier in the show You have You have all kinds of all kinds of contracts TV grants

[00:19:36] All I mean really they got all kinds all kinds of Legal stuff. I'm not even gonna get into that's so much that goes into that It's gonna be interesting. I love college football. I really hope it doesn't go away in 2020

[00:19:55] If we have to see in the spring so be it. I mean, it's not gonna You know, I guess we can wait a little bit few more in a few more months

[00:20:03] But the fact that we're just at least a month away till college football were oh so close But we'll see we will see G D Again follow me on Twitter on air with Mike follow the show air raid underscore podcast Follow me on sports castor SPO RTS

[00:20:42] So again question of the day on Twitter. I will tweet it out after the show here shortly Question of the day would this be calm the mega conference era? If teams like the Nebraska's the Penn States if they enjoy being a part of the big 12 temporarily

[00:20:59] for the 2020 season Will this become the beginning of the end? As we know in regular conferences will we see mega conferences? Or will we not I don't know if you can do a poll on here. I should do one on here We'll see now another news

[00:21:18] The NFL the NFL course as far as I know is doing well a lot of players especially here in New England Patriots You got a lot of opt-outs if you the Denver Broncos Joann James right tackle

[00:21:31] Opting out if you know me. I'm a Broncos fan and so that was a pretty Interesting move on Joann James's part huge piece missing on the right tackle But again the Broncos signing DeMar dots and earlier just about moments ago

[00:21:49] And so we are up and running. I think he'll be at least feeling death part. I expect Elijah Wilkinson to take that right tackle spot come the Kick opening week of the NFL season as they take on Tennessee, I believe on the Monday night football

[00:22:10] Going back to college football And what else does this say big 10 pack 12 gone canceled? Mountain West joins the club big 12 still in the beans haven't heard yet Well, hold on breaking news All right, just joining in

[00:22:29] Breaking news. I just received a news notification here from our local news station here in Oklahoma City The big 12 approved it and they are moving forward so that with that being said the big 12 will have

[00:22:42] Will have the 2020 season so if you're just joining us on sportscaster and also Listening on the air attack podcast the big 12 conference has approved To move forward with the 2020 season And with that being said Oklahoma and things off against military state sometime in the month of September

[00:23:05] As they try to make it six straight big 12 championships And hopefully we can make it to the playoff and maybe get that first first playoff when of course You gotta have you gotta have some jokes aside when things are and bring things are pretty

[00:23:19] Interesting at the time being so again big 12 joining The ranks of the SEC more than likely the ACC is gonna go into stay hold the big 10 But in the pack 12 will be dismissed So there you go, there you have it

[00:23:36] Big 12 now where we see them going up to Nebraska where we see them go off to Penn State, Wisconsin, Michigan Iowa, Ohio State even go after some packed 12 teams. Will they bring in Colorado? We'll see I

[00:23:49] Don't know scheduling wise what that will do. I know a lot of course the SEC the ACC Approved the conference only schedule Maybe the big 12 can do something like that and just bring in some teams call it conference schedule and go forward. We'll see
