This may be the most enjoyable final exchange between the coaches of the national championship ever.
Definitely
What a awesome interview between two of the sports greatest coaches(I know Kirby is around the top of that list, and while Sonny may not be up at the top just yet…I personally believe that he’s one amongst the best)!
the more i hear kirby speak. the more i love him. would love to play for him.
It's incredibly nice to see Sonny and Kirby with the degree of mutual respect that they have - these two programs clearly respect each other and I'm honored (as a TCU fan) to have the opportunity to play Kirby's Dawgs... they are going to be back in years to come so TCU needs to take advantage of this...
Tcu will be back too dont worry. Yall are in good hands with sonny. 👍🏽
I get the same feeling, i love to see two competing programs that show honor and respect to their counterparts. Dawgs fan here, but TCU has a wonderful program that will be competing at the top level for years to come. Cant wait for the game tonight between two gritty teams!
The title of this video should be, "Kirby Smart & Sonny Dykes sit down to discuss how glad they are they didn't have to face Alabama" !!!!
@@100rgroom LOL Alabama is an ok team this year. Either team would gladly play them. Bama could of had 5 losses this year. Lucky to have just 2
This was by far the greatest and most mutually respectful interview between two coaches going into the National Championship I've ever heard and seen. Two great coaches from fabulous programs that know exactly what they're doing and how to get there. Perfect
For both these teams Georgia & TCU... Win or Lose... these two teams deserve a ton of respect.
NOT!
GO DAWGS!!! Kirby has magic happening in Athens and the program he’s leading. Congratulations to TCU as well. Amazing playoff games so far and it’s time for the best and biggest.
TCU fan here who shared some beers with UGA fans before the game and an uber with a couple after the game. Yall are first class and while I was disappointed with the rout I like what Sonny's building. Hopefully in a few more years we'll be able to compete with yall since it'll be yall who teams have to go through as long as Kirby is there.
@@jdidz5146 Glad to hear fans gettin’ along. I’m curious to see how things move around in the Big 12 with Texas and Oklahoma leaving. I agree with you that Sonny’s doing great at TCU, especially for a first year. Now’s the hardest part for a fan though, the off-season.
@Jeremy Nipper The teams coming in seem to be better on the field lately than OU or UT Austin. Those two should be easy dubs for yall whenever yall play lol and yes only 9 months til the season starts again.
Sonny Dykes is charming. Good luck to both teams; well deserved
Sonny just don’t know the beat down that was ensuing 😂
Excellent interview. Brilliant questions and answers. Two great coaches and personalities. Excited for this game. Thrilling most of all that a team like TCU actually made it to the mountaintop. I’ll admit, I’m hoping they can plant their flag there. Go Frogs!
Texas A&M overpaid and overextended themselves for a head coach and some recruits. Texas Tech paid each player $25K in NIL money. The Horns lost the Alamo Bowl. Baylor got beat by Air Force. Who’s the best team in Texas for the price of a fast food combo? Who’s in the Naty year one?
Absolutely 2 GREAT COACHES.
Go DAWGS!
Congratulations to TCU for the journey. Great fan base and story. I hope it’s a great game. Go dawgs
Good interview,
Didn’t have enough to watch in its entirety.
Mutual respect from both coaches!
Awesome interview! Two intelligent and articulate men.
Watching this is amazing I’m honestly just looking forward to a good game by both team (as a tcu fan ) I honestly think I’ll be happy at the end of the game no matter what
After this interview I have more respect for the coaches and even though I’m a Georgia fan, this is a top notch game with 2 hungry teams. Kinda pulling for TCU to keep it close and would not be disappointed if Georgia loss. These coaches are teaching these kids a life lesson of getting up after being knocked down which happens as we go through life.
Yeah...keep it close
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great interview
world class interview. Amazing cant wait for the game! Go dawgs! but unreal season Horned Frogs. So well deserved
Really cool interview! Hope it's Awesome CFB Playoff Championship 🏆 Game!! Id like see TCU WIN!!!!
I'm from Houston Texas I don't have nothing against Kirby Smart in Georgia but I know that TCU is coming in as an underdog but I think the SLEEPING GIANTS! Have rising!
GO FROGS!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They looked still tired and sleepy to me...
I noticed Sonny Dykes buttered up Harbaugh and it worked... Michigan came out sleep walking while believing their own hype. Kirby Smart is the master at keeping his teams playing on edge. Kirby Smart said he starts team meetings with the song "Back Stabbers" -- he is keeping his team humble and hungry!
Go Dawgs but man, I love coach Dykes. What a good man
I respect TCU but as a Georgia fan, I know my dawgs in and out. Anytime we have a close game like we had against Ohio state, CKS does his magic and all mistakes will be cleaned up. And that's dangerous for the opposing team 😳
You called it to a T brother. Go Dawgs!
@@TheMCJ2011 yes sir!
This reminds me of the moment in the incredible movie "Heat" where Deniro is talking to Pacino
On Stetson Bennett, he evolved from a playmaker to a performer. A guy who can play more consistently. Sure, make some plays and SOME mistakes, but your baseline needs to be consistent performance and leadership. Kudos to him getting to that point over time.
I enjoyed that exchange. Now Go Dawgs!
Had a dream that we could do it
"Pounding a lot of people." 😂
So Kirby playing the O’jays no wonder they balling
I gotta feeling TCU is gonna shock the world
Idk man. It was pretty tough with the Buckeyes
we shall see. only sixty minutes of football is what we’re waiting on. the most important sixty minutes in tcu history.
The problem with trusting your gut...it could just be gas...
I think that feeling you have may be diarrhea
Lol, No chance.
Go Dawgs!
Bama fan for six decades. Bryant and Saban culminated in Kirby. Going to enjoy the game, regardless of who wins.
Man we had that game and let it slip away!!!!! C.J played like a pro but the defense laid an egg in the 4th quarter. That fake punt timeout sure did safe UGA and congrats to them and UGA nation.
Go dawgs!!!!!!!!!
Go frawgs!!!!!!!
Go dawgs.
@@RR64434 Lol, i see what you did there... GO DAWGS!
THIS GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL GAME GO DAWGS
Yea I like these type of coaches Surrport the N.I.L💯💯 players needs help also
Sonny is first class . Good luck TCU ( great , not to listen to OSU tiresome fans ) . Go Dawgs
I assume the thumbnail was taken right after Kirby said we going to score 60+ on you. T C Who?
Kirby saying the whole nation disrespected Georgia, the reigning Nation champion and preseason #1, is absolutely hilarious
Georgia is always disrespected, they have a history of getting to the point and losing.
@@FrenchJae not a single person on the planet disrespected them this year
it’s all relative, but they came in to the season ranked 3rd after convincingly winning the chip. cfp also ranked them third in like week 8
They did.. anytime you start the season and keep hearing you lost 15 players to the draft nd ALABAMA winning the Sec and Ohio state vs Alabama.. or Georgia lost to many players they’ll take a step back thats all the disrespect you’ll need.. literally
@@ryanolson2308not this year because its 2023.. but they did the summer and towards the start of the season
The thumbnail looks 47 years old
You’re right! 😂
Go Dawgs sic the frogs
Well, he did ask Kirby to let him know when he's blitzing just didn't get the memo.
This is the most excited i’ve been for a championship game..And i’ll be happy with whoever wins lol
That is ma coach right there! Go Frawgs!
Guys that can coach lesser talent is more impressive to me
Agreed
Haters gonna hate
It takes a great coach to be able to manage talent tho.
Both teams have tremendous talent though...
TCU talent is no where near Georgia talent. Georgia easily gone win by 17..
go dawgs!
Go dawgs
Go TCU
Dawgs vs Frawgs
Go Dawgs!!
Go dawgs
38-27 dawgs.
Fear The Frog
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nah
I’m completely neutral- I seriously think TCU is shiftier but Georgia is more physical. Close call but TCU upsets the world 31-27
42-24 Dawgs...
38-27 Dawgs
Lmaoooooo
Try 65 to 7
Haha
Riff Ram Bah Zoo! Go Frogs!!!
Dumbest chant in the history of sport go Dawgs
I thought Christians didn’t believe in magic spells? 🤔 😂
@RednBlackDawg ...I thought low IQ atheists didn't acknowledge what Christians had to say. 😂...sit down son...
I'm from Texas and yeah GO FROGS!!
What does "Roff Ram Bag Zoo" mean? I've seen itang times. Is it the battle cry?
Go Frogs!
UGA TCU, Georgia vs Texas, Blue State vs Red State... LETS GO! LETS GO!!!
Aren’t they both red states
@@itsyenji Georgia is Biden country!!! Deep Blue!
🐸🐸💜💜💜
GoDawgs Sic Em!!!
60 more minutes
4 more quarters
1 more game!
… for the Natty!!
Jesus. TCU was a horrible team that didn't deserve to be in the playoff
Much respect for TCU and glad to see their hard work pay off!
I think it will be closer than the current spread and if we turn the ball over we could go home with an L
Go Dawgs
Two hard working tape watchers this should be a fun game of x's and o's.
Georgia got this 41-23
As I have told every sill fan, stop making score predictions.... I told this to Michigan Fans, TCU Fans, Ohio State Fans, LSU Fans and many others over the year! Just say who you think might win and why... not a stupid score prediction! All are always wrong! Look at facts, stats, etc.... as I just told a TCU Fan, look at the truth over the season and every team they played and what those teams did their entire season! Look at the mistakes, Look at the Good.... Then make a decision not based on Emotion with a silly score prediction but a more focused Effort! I hate it when fans make score predictions with no reason for the prediction other than emotion! I hope We get a second Natty and back to back, but I would never ever ever ever make a silly score prediction! Either team can win!
@@dublindog8038 ❤but we still gone win
Same
@@dublindog8038calm down 65-7
42-34 UGA.
🐸🐸🐸🐸
LLLLLL
Manifesting a tcu win 🐸
Weirdest combo of first names Ever
It will take the game of their lives to defeat Georgia but it can be done!
Really?
i want tcu to win but i know georgia is
Kirby: "We both make good money as coaches"
Kirby makes $10.3 million/year, Dykes makes $5 million/year
Lol you think 5 million dollars isn’t “good money?” Are you hiring where you work?
Dykes haven’t won nothing and makes 5mil … that’s what’s up
@@xHBTDx lol right

Dog eat frog
Not a horned frog tho.
Frawgz > Dawgz
65-7 frogs get tf back in the water 😂
Jesus is Lord. Repent and trust in Him.
No thanks don't think I will
Who’s Jesus
Amen
@@landonwells6726 should you never know when you’ll die
Amen!😇
TCU over UGA 45-42 late in the game.
😂
Look at the nfl brand half of them don’t belong there was a standard. Now it’s about money and not production. All excuses
TCU had close calls all season and lost one game. Georgia had close calls in some games but found a way to win with luck or the referees TCU is not going to let Georgia run over therm or think they aren’t big enough or fast enough to handle with them this team has felt the experience of losing and they are going to have a different mindset when they play Georgia
Wouldn’t you call TCU winning majority of their games “close calls” mean that they were LUCKY too more so than UGA. The whole ref helping UGA is bogus and a narrative that must helps or makes you feel better somehow. UGA has only had 2 “close games” this season (Mizz and OSU) and they’ve played at a high level against some top 10 ranked teams that you can easily go back to watch highlights.
It’s not shocking that having talent and YES being lucky from time 2 time are all apart of winning and becoming a champion….🐶❤️🤍🖤
@@DivaBooHoney exactly this!! Bogus narrative that UGA gets bailed out by the refs, refs are just more likely to be used as an excuse by the losing team.
Plenty of missed calls even in the Peach Bowl that no one other than Georgia fans is talking about
What game was decided by the refs?
And what calls were blown in those games?
sounds like an alabama or ohio state fan lol
Bro the refs literally handed TCU the win over Michigan. Lmao.
Tcu wins
Their winning is over this season
They’ve done won their last game.
Dear BIG 12 fans, calm down with the overconfidence lol. The CFP began in 2014 and the conference has just now in 2022 won its first playoff game. We know y’all are new to this but you’ll learn that lesson soon enough
@@ImHoNdO bet
@@ImHoNdO I’m a texas fan anyways
400-1 odds that TCU would win the championship this year. Yeah I think it's safe to say that the gambling elites have gotten their hand in college sports now, and I'm starting to think that these games are pre determined and controlled by Vegas owned Officials. Absolutely genius way to con people out of money. Bet TCU wins the championship. And there will be alot of people get rich off it. Georgia the better team , but I have a feeling that these refs are going to control the outcome. So pay attention to the flags, and penalties in this game. 👀
Good conspiracy theory…u was waaaaay off
Really? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😍
@@snappaworldmusic5777 😅 yea obviously
I love Stetson but he's not articulate at all coach
The title of this video should be, "Kirby Smart & Sonny Dykes sit down to discuss how glad they are they didn't have to face Alabama" !!!!
Bama was terrifying this year, with loses to UT and LSU, nears loses to Texas and Texas a&m. Yeah, really glad UGA didn’t have to play you.
@@temphill4527 They would have beat Ga., And there was no loss to Tn. That was a robbery !
Don’t lose to teams uga beat
One bonus i can see from paying players is keeping them in school to graduation
I’m born n raised Athens Georgia Ga don’t deserve it Tcu does period the team we got ant it they got exposed it’s a legend son vs a walk on with defense
65 to 7 and it wasn't that close
TCU will beat UGA tomorrow
Good luck wit that

howd it go for ohio state?
Go dawgs
Kirby Smart: "We felt disrespected, because nobody gave us a chance after last year."
Me: 🤨🤔 "WHO did not give Georgia a chance? WHO disrespected Georgia? I seem to recall Georgia being at or near the top of the rankings all year, from the start. Sure, y'all lost some players and not everyone thought you would repeat. But WHO was out there saying it couldn't be done? WHO?"
Sometimes I think coaches manufacture the motivation they need. lol
“not everyone thought you would repeat”
Be serious. NOBODY thought they’d even make it back to the title game. Stop the cap.
Was Georgia ranked #1 to start the season? No. That’s disrespect to the national championship team. They were told they lost too many players and wouldn’t be good. That’s disrespect.
@JonTheDon lol They started the season ranked 3rd and immediately asserted dominance by demolishing Oregon. They have been the presumed favorites by many ever since that beatdown. If you're talking about before the season started, you have more of an argument, but even then I think it's absolutely ridiculous to say that "nobody" gave the third ranked team in America a chance to make the title game. Come on.
@Digital Ambition There's a difference between not being the favorite for the title for two seconds before the season started and they walloped Oregon, and nobody giving them a chance. They started the season ranked 3rd. I think it was always apparent that they had a chance, and it only took one game to become obvious that they were probably about as good as they were last year.
@@DanielChannel89 He's talking about the chatter all off-season. The "Experts" repeatedly said Georgia wouldn't be good, they lost too many players, they can't get back to the playoffs, It'll be Bama vs OSU as the lock picks ... this is what we heard the entire off-season. They rightfully took that as disrespect. Period.
Looking for Georgia to ROLL TCU. TCU got there because Michigan made mistakes and Turnovers bottom line.
Great editing shooting mistake in this is showing only the talking coach. Super rookie derp missed chance. Show kirby when sonny talks etc vice versa duh dude. Duh.
Go Dawgs!
Go dawgs.
