NFL Network host Rich Eisen badly wants the Tennessee Vols to beat the Ohio State Buckeyes in Columbus next Saturday night in the first round of the College Football Playoff.
And then he wants the Vols to plant a huge Power T flag at midfield at the horseshoe.
"If I'm [Tennessee], I'm bringing the largest orange flag with a white T on it that's ever been created," said Eisen. "It's not bad sportsmanship, it's what one does when one wins in the Ohio State University….Wouldn't you just bring the largest flag and just put it right there on the sideline for them to look at the entire game?"
"I'm going to learn Rocky Top, I'm buying anything that's orange, maybe Purina dog food, any checkerboard I can possibly find. I'm going to be all in on this game," added Eisen.
(Side note: What a random Purina checkerboard reference by Eisen.)
Eisen graduated from Michigan, so it's no surprise that he's passionately rooting against Ohio State.
Still, it's pretty cool for Tennessee fans that one of the faces of NFL media (and one of the best media guys in the business in general) will be cheering on the Vols when the program visits Columbus on December 21.
