3
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: those warm fuzzies over out the door. That's sentimentalism. It's

4
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 2: time to go play a game against great opponent. We

5
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: gotta have a sharp edge going into this game. You

6
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: know you don't go to war with warm milk and cookies.

7
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 3: Myself focusing on the job and myself focused on the

8
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,400

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 6: hanging in there, all right. A lot to talk about,

28
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 6: obviously a full weekend of sports, but we are looking

29
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 6: squarely down the road, running down a dream as appropriately

30
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 6: as Tom Petty can say it. Right there, Kevin Bowen,

31
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 6: I'll start with you. You've been in this state since

Speaker 6: lifestyle of sports that you have.

34
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 10: Incredible lifestyle.

35
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 6: Ye, unbelievable. You've seen the man. You've seen the man.

36
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 6: You've seen the man he.

37
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 10: Got them locks and started really living as.

38
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 6: Far as sports lifestyle is concerned. Uh, this is pretty good.

39
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 5: This is the school.

40
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 6: I know, it's I know, not to Davis your school,

41
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 6: but you went I mean, you're you're cheering mechanism, but

43
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 5: You grew up here.

44
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 6: I can't imagine you haven't been havn't gotten caught up

45
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 6: in this whole thing, right.

46
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 4: Kurtzignety and I are coworkers, right pretty much? Yeah, right,

47
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 4: pretty much. I'm sure you know we're very much. You

48
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 4: see in the break room hierarchy there down in Bloomington.

49
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 4: You went and signed my checks? Does she not? Just

50
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 4: like she signs his checks? Mark, Thank you for the intro. Uh,

51
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 4: I'm sure we'll get to you, but apologies up front

52
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 4: on that. Uh yeah, you know. I'm scrolling social media

53
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 4: last night having trouble unwind from the game that was

54
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 4: the NFC Divisional Round game, a Soldier field, and you

55
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 4: just see this descent upon South Beach and I mean everywhere.

56
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 4: It's everywhere I look on my social media, and your

57
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 4: part of me is a little bit like that. Well,

58
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 4: if you'd have told me that at some point in

59
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 4: my life, I'd say, wow, a bunch of eye. You

60
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 4: faithful going to Miami on a cold week? Oh yeah,

61
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 4: spring break? Right, Yeah, that makes total sense. And then

62
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 4: if you're like, no, no, no, there's actually a sporting event.

63
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 4: Theyre actually gonna have a football game, I would have

64
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 4: been like, oh wow, that's a cool non conference game,

65
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 4: or you know, did conference realignment stretch the Miami Hurricanes?

66
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 4: And once again I met with no, no, no. This

67
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 4: is the January nineteenth date. This is the National Championship,

68
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 4: and not only is Indiana football in it, there are

69
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 4: touchdown favorites and run on a dream mark I think

70
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 4: is very fitting because it does feel like that last word,

71
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 4: the dream aspect is alive and well and tonight's coordination.

72
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 4: I mean, that's how I continue to feel about it

73
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 4: on this commute in here, on this very very chilly

74
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 4: Monday morning. So absurd, to say the least.

75
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 6: Absurd in all the great ways. Good morning, James Boyd.

76
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 6: And I know that you've been living here for a

77
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 6: while now, you've been covering all of our teams. We

78
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 6: say it all the time when you take a look

79
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 6: at how unlikely it was. Yeah, the candy stripes today

80
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 6: with the Jordans, I love it. But I mean, just

81
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 6: think about just the last year of sports that we've

82
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 6: been around here in this area, in this city, in

83
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 6: this state. The improbable run that the Pacers kept making

84
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 6: starting in March and then into April, and then in

85
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 6: the first round of the playoffs, in the second round

86
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 6: of the playoffs, and the conference championship, and we all

87
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 6: know how things went in the NBA Finals and then

88
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 6: the fever one game away from going to the w

89
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 6: NBA Finals, And who would have thought all that was

90
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 6: just to warm up for what Kurt signetti and Indiana

91
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 6: had coming and had in store for us. I mean,

92
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,799
Speaker 6: you've covered all these stories. How insane has this been?

93
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 6: Truly insane?

94
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 11: I mean almost as incredible as Kevin's lifestyle. You know,

95
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 11: it's like neck and neck. Oh my god, list yea,

96
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 11: the sports lifestyle, baby. But as far as the game

97
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 11: and the matchup in the journey to it, it's been crazy.

98
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 11: But as I've said all along this year, especially after

99
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 11: they whooped up on my alna and kept rolling, this

100
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 11: is not Cinderella. I think the overall theme of it

101
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 11: feels like that because you look at the history of Indiana,

102
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 11: the losing his program, and Coosawa history at one point

103
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 11: now being one went away from national championship. Yes, it

104
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 11: has the cinderella esque feel to it, but if you

105
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 11: look at the actual team this year, this isn't last

106
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 11: year when they kind of shocked everybody. This year they've

107
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 11: just dominated everybody, and now you're looking at not only

108
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 11: trying to win a national championship, but if they wanted,

109
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 11: what kind of conversation do you start about how dominant

110
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 11: they were in doing it?

111
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 10: So very exciting stuff.

112
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. It's gonna be a

113
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 6: long day. We'll talk about all the places you can

114
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 6: go and watch it tonight. I already saw last night

115
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 6: video of kind of a PEP rally in Miami. I

116
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 6: don't know if you saw that video, Kevin just read

117
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 6: as far as the I can see in whatever little

118
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 6: park or whatever they were gathering last night. And I

119
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 6: know they were all there specifically to celebrate Indiana football.

120
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 5: But this fan base goes everywhere.

121
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 6: We've seen that, and they're infiltrating all the videos I've

122
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 6: seen over the weekend, and they're infiltrating Miami in the

123
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 6: same way they infiltrated in Atlanta.

124
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 5: They're ready to go.

125
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, secondary ticket market, I hope you bought your ticket.

126
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 4: I hope you weren't waiting for the Sunda rise on Monday,

127
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 4: waiting for a miracle. I saw that it is climbed

128
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 4: north of four thousand dollars. Here as we are a

129
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 4: little over twelve hours from Kitkoff, Sean mcdonna, I'm going

130
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 4: to join us at eight. He will once again be

131
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 4: on the national radio call of this National Championship game,

132
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 4: him and Greg McElroy. So Sean McDonough as he has

133
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 4: joined us A lots here over the last two years

134
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 4: with the respective state national championship runs, if you will,

135
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 4: from Notre Dame in Indiana, So looking forward to that

136
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 4: and Scott Dolson. I find it pretty cool the athletic

137
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 4: director there at Indiana University has time for us on

138
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 4: what is a day that I don't even know if

139
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 4: he ever could have seriously envisioned back whenever he was

140
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 4: even a student, let alone an administrator down there. So

141
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 4: that's all he got for you. At eight o'clock McDonough,

142
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 4: nine o'clock Scott Dolson and again seven point fifty is

143
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 4: your kick time tonight.

144
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 5: It's gonna be a lot of fun.

145
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 6: Also, busy, busy weekend of sports, whether it's college basketball,

146
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 6: where the NFL, lots of NFL games yesterday and Mark

147
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 6: I'll address you.

148
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 5: I know it didn't work out.

149
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 6: For the Bears, but Caleb Williams is fun to watch

150
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,119
Speaker 6: that you never know what he's going to do next.

151
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 6: He's got seasoning that he needs. There are a few

152
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 6: things he needs to clean up. But that last drive,

153
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 6: whether it was the run that advances the ball thirty

154
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 6: yards downfield or just the insane video game play that

155
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 6: he makes on the touchdown to Cole Comet. There's a

156
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 6: lot of hope and promise ahead for the Bears. I

157
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 6: know they're disappointed today, but man, is he fun to watch.

158
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 12: I'll ride with him seven days out of the week

159
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 12: and twice on Sunday because I was trying to go

160
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 12: to sleep, and I like, I know they lost and

161
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 12: I was disappointed with that, but I'm like, I still,

162
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 12: for the life of me, I don't understand how that

163
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 12: play happened, that throw to Comet, because I'm like, he

164
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 12: did everything you're not supposed to do, ran backwards, threw

165
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 12: off his back foot, and he threw a prey and

166
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 12: it landed in Kolkomet's breadbasket. I still don't understand how

167
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 12: that exactly happened.

168
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 6: That's a quarterback that knows how strong his arm is

169
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 6: and likely where his player is gonna be. That's how

170
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 6: I saw it, because they his arm is so strong.

171
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 6: It looked to me James like the Rams kind of

172
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 6: gave up on any possibility of him getting it to

173
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 6: the end zone.

174
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 11: Yeah, he does a lot of crazy things that look impossible.

175
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 13: Now.

176
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 11: I know he'll beat himself up for the last turnover,

177
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 11: the interception that basically sealed the fate of their season.

178
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 11: But Kayla Williams man, two of the best thros have

179
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 11: ever seen in my life, and what back to back

180
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 11: playoff games, So you really can't get mad at that.

181
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 11: And we'll see what they do with try to build

182
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 11: on that.

183
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, and Kevin in the NFC, Seattle Seahawks defense looked,

184
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 6: they looked all legion to boom.

185
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 5: They were nasty.

186
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 4: Rams early tweet of the year for twenty twenty six,

187
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 4: gonna be a long walk back to Gary was their

188
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 4: tweet after that one ended last night. Shovel on the ground.

189
00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 4: That's what I'll believe.

190
00:08:58,880 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 6: Hey, that's closer to you.

191
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 5: That's good for you.

192
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 4: I'm open to it. Yeah, very hard at that tweet there.

193
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, I mean what we got two thrillers and

194
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,319
Speaker 4: two I don't know two duds is the right way

195
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 4: to put it. But I mean, obviously what happened in

196
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 4: Buffalo Denver was just it was incredible. And then yeah, Seattle,

197
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 4: uh looked like a juggernaut that Frankly, I didn't see

198
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 4: that type of performance out of them. And yeah, just

199
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 4: what a weird final four to be totally honest with you,

200
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 4: you know, especially the bow Knicks injury situation, you know,

201
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 4: New England getting it done. I can only imagine me

202
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 4: a Titans fan waking up this morning thinking we fired

203
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 4: Mike Rabel for this, just all of it. I think

204
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 4: there are a lot of interesting storylines, not the obvious ones,

205
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 4: not like the Mahomes and the you know, Hall of

206
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 4: Fame quarterback galore sort of final four here, But yeah, great,

207
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 4: great weekend starting with me an absolute thriller, and then

208
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 4: of course ended yesterday with this.

209
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 10: Although I saw the fame quarterback. You can call a

210
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 10: Philip Rivers, is you're Denver, call them up?

211
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 6: Is he familiar with the system.

212
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 11: It don't matter who would you rather go. It's a

213
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 11: battle where Philip Rivers or Jared Statham.

214
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 4: Philip Rivers is a cult. He's not allowed to go there.

215
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 10: Release him, cut him.

216
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 4: I just find it that, like the NFL team loses

217
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 4: a home game in that fashion, and yet we treat

218
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 4: it like a Cinderella team losing in the NCAA tournament.

219
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 4: I mean, like Mark is the most jolly I've ever

220
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 4: seen an NFL fan after a loss.

221
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 6: That's the difference between having a very young quarterback that's

222
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 6: taking your team to immediate heights and having an older

223
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 6: quarterback and having something where everybody goes if Buffalo, same old.

224
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 6: I mean, look, I'm a big josh Allen Fann. He's

225
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 6: one of my favorite players in the league.

226
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 4: You'd rather be a Bills fan or a Bears fan

227
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 4: this morning?

228
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 5: I think I think the Bears are more excited.

229
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 12: Yeah, because you're in year one of Ben Johnson, year

230
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 12: two of Caleb Williams, and you came off of season

231
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 12: that I think you won what fifteen games in the

232
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 12: under Matt ebra Flews in three seasons and you won

233
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 12: eleven games, and the.

234
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 4: Old Dan Campbell of you never know when you're.

235
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 5: Going to get back.

236
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 4: I think that's the hardest thing about sports. Like, you know,

237
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 4: do we say that tonight about Indiana? I mean, yes,

238
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 4: you think that Indiana's gonna be a team that's here

239
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,319
Speaker 4: to stay. But like you imagine telling an IU basketball

240
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 4: fan back in two thousand and two, yeah, you're not

241
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 4: gonna get past the Sweet sixteen for the next twenty

242
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 4: four years. You know. It's just it's like these sport

243
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 4: moments when you when you have these opportunities, it's like, damn,

244
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 4: I get that. There's a lot of magic to the

245
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 4: season and there's a lot of feel good nature and

246
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 4: it was a surprise blah blah blah. But man, when

247
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 4: it's sitting there for the taking, the opportunities do not

248
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 4: grow on trees.

249
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 6: I think we can all agree, though we don't feel

250
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 6: like kurtz Signetti is gonna let his team get fat

251
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 6: and happy fixed on what they've done. You get that sense, James,

252
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 6: he's gonna he's gonna humble them and keep them hungry.

253
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 10: Well, what did he say during marks intro?

254
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 11: You can't go to war with warm milk and cookies

255
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 11: or something like that. So the guy has references for days,

256
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 11: and I'm sure he'll have those guys ready to go tonight.

257
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 6: I think it just takes one look from him, doesn't it,

258
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 6: when you're getting on the bus, Just the way he

259
00:11:58,640 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 6: looks at.

260
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 10: His face express and changes quite honestly with you.

00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 6: Miami and Indiana right now, Hoosiers seven and a half

289
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 6: point favorites, the over understaying at forty seven and a half.

290
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 6: Do you feel any differently on a Monday morning game day,

291
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 6: Kevin than you did about this game before the weekend

292
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 6: started on Friday.

293
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 4: I don't know if overly different. You know, I still

294
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 4: think we can continue go over the keys, you know, Alabama.

295
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 4: I thought Indiana would cruise or again, I didn't think

296
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 4: it obviously be the score it was. I thought they

297
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 4: would handle the ducks. Though I don't know if I

298
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 4: feel the same same way about today, But again we'll

299
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 4: get into it about the show. One thing to note, obviously,

300
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,000

Speaker 5: Very cool.

313
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 6: James, Indiana's fifteen to oer Miami thirteen and two. They

314
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 6: won seven straight. How about Fernando Mendoze, your Heisman Trophy

315
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,359
Speaker 6: winner in his last two games here in the playoffs,

316
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 6: thirty one of thirty six for three hundred and sixty

317
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 6: nine yards, eight touchdowns, zero interceptions. We've mentioned this before,

318
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 6: but eight touchdowns to five incompletions in these two playoff games.

319
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 11: Special player, and we'll see if you be able to

320
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 11: keep it up against probably the best defensive front in

321
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 11: the country in Miami. So I'm excited to see how

322
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 11: he continues to raise his level of play big moments.

323
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 11: And obviously this will be his last college game, so

324
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 11: he won't squad on high not.

325
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 6: I love this, Kevin. When the weekend started, Indiana was

326
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 6: like a seventy one percent chance to win this game.

327
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 6: According to ESPN Analytics, it's down to sixty eight point

328
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 6: three in the absence of us knowing about anbody who

329
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 6: got hurt or injured. How does it change from Friday

330
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 6: to Monday.

331
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 4: You tell me I'm not familiar with those metrics.

332
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 5: I'm not either.

333
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 6: That's why I say for what it's worth football Yesterday

334
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 6: and all weekend of the NFL playoffs, we had four games.

335
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 6: On Saturday, Denver won a thriller in overtime over Buffalo.

336
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 6: Patriots over the Texans twenty eight to sixteen. Yesterday, that's

337
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 6: the AFC in the NFC. On Saturday, the Seahawks beat

338
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 6: the forty nine Ers forty one to six. Kenneth Walker

339
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 6: had three touchdowns rushing in that one. And then maybe

340
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 6: the best game to watch all weekend, the Rams over

341
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 6: the Bears in overtime twenty to seventeen. Caleb Williams threw

342
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 6: for two hundred and fifty seven yards two touchdowns. He

343
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 6: did have the three interceptions, but he was a human

344
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 6: highlight reel. It just wasn't quite enough James, But man,

345
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 6: does that kid do special things.

346
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 10: Yeah? It was tough.

347
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 11: I felt for Mark and everyone else back home in

348
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 11: the Chicago area. But at the same time, you had

349
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 11: to feel pretty good knowing that number eighteen is your

350
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 11: quarterback moving forward, I would even argue, and I can

351
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 11: feel the older people probably get mad at me, but

352
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 11: he might be the most talented quarterback they've ever had

353
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 11: in Chicago history.

354
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 4: I don't think there's any mite about it.

355
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 10: Okay, I'm just.

356
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 11: Making sure because I didn't watch obviously every single game

357
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 11: bar but I can't think. I mean the caveat there

358
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 11: is the Bears quarterback history is terrible. So if you

359
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 11: got they have a dude finally, because in years past

360
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 11: it was never like this when they were remotely good.

361
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 6: Yeah.

362
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,119
Speaker 4: Next week, yeah, I feel like they're out of it right.

363
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 6: The AFC and NFC Conference Championship games and the AFC

364
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 6: of course Denver taking on the Patriots. That feels familiar,

365
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 6: doesn't it, Kevin, It don't seen that one before.

366
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 4: At the quarterback is slightly different.

367
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it'll be the Seahawks and the Rams in

368
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 6: the other one, and we'll talk about those all week

369
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 6: leading up to those. Meanwhile, in the end over the weekend,

370
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 6: Pacers had a tough loss to Detroit won twenty one

371
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 6: to seventy eight on Saturday night, but they were missing

372
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 6: seven different guys. I think actually tweeted out they could

373
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,239
Speaker 6: use you and JMV in that game on Saturday night,

374
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 6: James and nobody playing.

375
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, that felt like.

376
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 11: We know that we probably aren't going to win this

377
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 11: this type of matchup, and we're looking at perhaps a

378
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 11: little bit of those ping pong balls because yeah, they

379
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 11: rested a bunch of guys.

380
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 6: We would expect I think Kevin to see Pascal Sia

381
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 6: can play a little bit later on tonight against Philadelphia.

382
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't believe he's on the injury report, so yeah,

383
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 4: I know Philly, they are maybe doing what the Pacers

384
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 4: did the other night. I saw Joel Embiid Paul George

385
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 4: both questionable with injury management. So yeah, the Pacers will

386
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 4: have a game tonight for what it's worth. I can

387
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 4: only imagine how little that will be viewed. But yes,

388
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 4: Pacers sixers, and that's on our airwaves.

389
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 5: Is that wrecked right here?

390
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 6: On ninety three, five and one to seven, five to

391
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 6: the fan, six thirty airtimes, seven o'clock tip again, math

392
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 6: in day to day with the thumb, McConnell.

393
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 5: Day to day with the elbow, Now mud a WIBC, Yeah,

394
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 5: I use WIBC. That's how that works, all right?

395
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 6: College basketball every weekend, Butler wonted seat in the hall.

396
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 6: That was a nice win for them. Purdue gets a

397
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 6: victory at USC Bradon Smith banged his knee in that game,

398
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 6: had to leave for a while, but came back. We'll

399
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 6: keep an eye on that, but he seems to be okay.

400
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 6: Hoosiers lost by seventeen at home to Iowa. Notre Dame

401
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 6: losing at Virginia Tech. Coming up tomorrow night, IU goes

402
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 6: to Michigan, Purdue plays at UCLA, Butler gets back to

403
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 6: the fieldhouse. They'll host Paul and then on Wednesday, Notre

404
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 6: Dame takes on North Carolina. Also, James Pike High School

405
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 6: lost Marion County championship game to Lawrence North in overtime.

406
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 5: So congratulations to.

407
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 6: Lawrence North and the city tournament starts later on this week.

408
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 5: You gon to catch any of those games you.

409
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 10: Think we'll see?

410
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 5: All right?

411
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 6: Anything else you guys want to throw in before we

412
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 6: move along for the morning.

413
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 7: No.

414
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 4: I thought it was a really good win and much

415
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 4: needed for Butler. Shout out to Stink Robinson. I know

416
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 4: him getting the point guard duties has been a little

417
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 4: bit of a rollercoast, but he was outstanding on the

418
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 4: road again. Butler needs more, but that was an important

419
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 4: step there, and yeah, Perdue, that was pretty gutty. We'll

420
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 4: await Braden Smiths status for tomorrow night. Like you said,

421
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 4: Ucla and Indiana awful at home.

422
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,479
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was out running kids around on Saturday afternoon

423
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:18,640
Speaker 6: listening to that Butler game.

424
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 5: Mark and Nick did a fantastic job.

425
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 6: They really brought home the urgency of that game and

426
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 6: you could hear the enthusiasm and Mark's voice to get

427
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 6: that huge road win. So that was great to listen

428
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 6: to it. Ninety three five and one o seven to

429
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 6: five to the fan again. They'll get it going again

430
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 6: tomorrow at home against the Paul All Right, that wraps

431
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 6: up the checkdown for right now. Coming up in a moment,

432
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 6: we turn our attention back to that National Championship game

433
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 6: we are coming up now on just over twelve and

434
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 6: a half hours to kick. We'll tell you all about

435
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 6: it next at ninety three five and one o seven

436
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 6: to five the fan Felling Show. It is Championship game

437
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 6: day later on tonight, Indiana in Miami play for all

438
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 6: of it. Dan, a chance going for the football team

439
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 6: to put together an undefeated championship season. Much like the

440
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 6: basketball team back in nineteen seventy five and Bob Knight

441
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 6: and that unbelievable run that has never been seventy six,

442
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 6: that's right. If they finished seventy five seventy six and

443
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 6: it's never been equalled. And I know that there's been

444
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 6: a couple of undefeated teams in college football, that's a

445
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 6: little more likely to happen. But can you imagine Indiana

446
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 6: with undefeated championship series in both basketball and now football?

447
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, fifty year anniversary, so yeah, pretty pretty wild. Kevin's

448
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 4: been around to see all of it, if that gets done.

449
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 4: And I don't even know if my parents haven't met yet.

450
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 10: I do, but that has to be cool for the

451
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 10: older crowd.

452
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 11: The all jokes aside, like to kind of bookend it

453
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 11: like that boy that is special.

454
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, while Scott Nelsen joined us

455
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 4: here coming up in nine and I you know, I

456
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 4: try to not have low hanging fruit when we had

457
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 4: him on after the Rose Bowl. But you know, Scott

458
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 4: was the manager, a manager, I should say, on the

459
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 4: basketball team under Bob Knight, So you know, try to

460
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 4: throw that question at him of the similarities that he

461
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 4: does see if any between Kurt Signetti and Bob Knight. So, James,

462
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 4: I think you brought up last week there was a

463
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 4: story that he started. I think Dana Benbo did it

464
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 4: on the fan that you know had went to Was

465
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 4: it all the games in seventy six or at least

466
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:19,959
Speaker 4: a chunk of the game.

467
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 11: All the game the seventy six tournament games that is.

468
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 4: In seventy six in that run and then you know,

469
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 4: now I have been to whatever Rose Bull, Peach Bowl

470
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 4: and tonight on South Beach.

471
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know, as Kurt Signetti was making his

472
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 6: final appearance on a press dais at a press conference

473
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 6: this past weekend, talking about this game and what it

474
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 6: means to him and what it means to the players.

475
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 6: He also talked about the chance to win a national

476
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 6: championship in an undefeated season, just like Bob Knight did

477
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 6: back in seventy six.

478
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was fifty years ago as a matter of fact.

479
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 2: And I was I was a big kind of Bob

480
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 2: Knight fan as a little kid. I like sort of

481
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: the Shenanigans in the faces at the press conferences and

482
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 2: throwing the chair across the court. I thought that was

483
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 2: pretty cool. And the guy bought my house from was

484
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 2: a big friend Bob Knight. Actually, if we're able to

485
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 2: climb that mountain, uh, you know, it'll be a unique coincidence.

486
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,719
Speaker 6: Any of us surprised that he liked and lived up

487
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 6: to or liked to live up to and and look

488
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 6: at Bob Knight, I could see that with the just

489
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 6: the way he is. They're very similar in the way

490
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 6: they purport themselves on the sidelines oftentimes.

491
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 11: No, I'm not surprised by it because I don't know

492
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 11: if you all have saw this viral clip Kevin, I

493
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 11: feel like once you get to level kurtzing Net he's

494
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 11: at everyone goes digging up stuff you've done in your past.

495
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 10: And do you remember the JMU.

496
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 11: Clip where I guess they might have made a call

497
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,439
Speaker 11: that he disagreed with, so he took someone's phone on

498
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 11: the sideline and tried to show it to the official No. Wow, No, yes,

499
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 11: he went full if you remember those listening, he went

500
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 11: full Patrick Beverley because Patrick Bebie did it with the

501
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 11: Lakers and the Lakers of Celtics game years ago, Lebron

502
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 11: got out of the end of the game.

503
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:55,959
Speaker 10: They didn't call it.

504
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 11: It was a clear foul, and so he took a

505
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 11: team photographer's camera that showed the foul and tried to

506
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 11: show out to the official got fined in all this

507
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 11: stuff tremendous, fucker hilarious.

508
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 4: I like how the reps like, get it out of here.

509
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't think that's, you know, exactly allowed.

510
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 11: Do you imagine, boy, every cell phone on the sideline

511
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 11: there in Denver would have been out for the Buffalo

512
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 11: team at least, so kind of a funny moment I

513
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 11: want to say to happen obviously tonight in a big game.

514
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 11: Probably don't need the penalty yardage, but he could be

515
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 11: fiery as well.

516
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 6: Can you imagine official just going up to somebody who's

517
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 6: sitting in the first show with their camera, going, Hey,

518
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 6: we're gonna do a.

519
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 5: Video review right now. What do you got? Let me

520
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 5: see your angle? Hilarious, let me see your angle right there.

521
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 6: So I like that, and I'm sure that the comparisons

522
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 6: will only grow if they finished this undefeated season. Right now,

523
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 6: this legendary story at this point in time, that Kurt

524
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,360
Speaker 6: Signette is spinning, and maybe he turns into a legendary.

525
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 6: I would imagine if they win tonight, he's a legendary

526
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 6: coach anyway, right, regardless of what happens from here on out.

527
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I mean the fact that you have Indiana

528
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 4: football playing on January nineteenth, I think probably defines a

529
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 4: lot of legendary status. But yes, you know, completing the

530
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 4: story would add to it. And I'm really obviously looking

531
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 4: forward to tonight. But I do think Miami test is

532
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 4: a little different than some of the tests from earlier.

533
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 4: You know, I've said it now for the past week plus.

534
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,880
Speaker 4: Miami's crazy now, you know, made the comp like ex

535
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 4: girlfriend crazy. There can be a lot of good to that,

536
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 4: and there can be a lot of bad to that.

537
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 4: You could make the case probably outside of Indiana, Miami

538
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 4: is the best trio of wins college football scene.

539
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: This year.

540
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 4: The beat ohiouse Sate on a neutral field by double figures.

541
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 4: They want at Texas A and M to start their

542
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 4: playoff and they beat you know, a quality noted ame

543
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 4: team in the opening game of the season. They also

544
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 4: lost the two on ranked teams. So like, there is

545
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 4: a lot of volatility I think to Miami's operation, and

546
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 4: again I think talent wise, you know, you look at

547
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 4: it and they've got some dudes that individually can take

548
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 4: over games. You know, I look at them offensively and

549
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 4: Malchai Tony and I think Mark Fletcher Junior a really

550
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 4: good running back as well. And then if you get

551
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 4: behind the chains and you set up some obvious passing

552
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 4: situations Rubin Bayne Keeme Mesador. I mean, that's one of

553
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,199
Speaker 4: the best, if not the best, you know, defensive end

554
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 4: duo in all of college football. So I just think

555
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 4: that aspect too. You know, we've talked so much about

556
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 4: the story, and rightfully so, but like, there is gonna

557
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 4: be a football game tonight, and does Indiana get tested

558
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 4: for the first time all playoffs or is this going

559
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 4: to be another just absolute romp and the Mendoz and

560
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 4: parents are sitting there in the crowd waiting for Alberto

561
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 4: to get in the game.

562
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 6: Yeah, we say this all the time, and we certainly

563
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 6: saw it in all four playoff games in the NFL

564
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 6: over the weekend, James. Generally, the teams that win these games,

565
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 6: they take really good care of the football. They don't

566
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 6: put it on the ground and they don't throw it

567
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 6: to the other team. That's something that Indiana has been

568
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 6: spectacular at this year is keeping the football close to it.

569
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, and they've also had just like some weird luck

570
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 11: when it comes to the fumbles and stuff like that,

571
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 11: because I think they've only lost one.

572
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 10: Fumble all year. They've had more than that.

573
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 11: But sometimes can you create your own luck just by

574
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 11: being relentless and being around the ball and not giving

575
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 11: up on plays. I go back to it might have

576
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 11: been the last game against Oregon where I believe Fernando

577
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 11: was scrambling, got popped and all comes out and nearest

578
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 11: Pat Cougan running down the field making sure he jumps

579
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 11: from the ball. So those types of little things help

580
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 11: you mitigate your mistakes. Because it's not a perfect game.

581
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,119
Speaker 11: They're gonna make mistakes tonight. But can your mistakes not

582
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 11: be fatal or momentum momentum swinging or huge moments in

583
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 11: the game where you're looking back like boy, kind of

584
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 11: like how I think Josh Allen was in that Bill's

585
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 11: Broncos game where you know game.

586
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 10: Gets tight at the end.

587
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 11: He's probably thinking even this morning, he's thinking, if I

588
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 11: just held onto the ball before the end of the

589
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 11: first half and didn't give them the extra three, maybe

590
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 11: we're winning that game. That's the type of mistakes you

591
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 11: want to avoid.

592
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 6: It for IU you guys may have seen this, and

593
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,360
Speaker 6: I'll just throw it out there in case you haven't,

594
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 6: because a lot of people probably have missed this. If

595
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 6: Indiana winnsnight, they'll be sixteen and oh do you know

596
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 6: the last time in college football team went sixteen?

597
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 7: And oh?

598
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 5: You might know this? Govin, I thot what I I.

599
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 4: Mean, we haven't had a playoff to you know, involve

600
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 4: three games. I would have no idea.

601
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 5: You want to take a shot at it, James, No,

602
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 5: I have no idea.

603
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 4: I mean would have to know you've had like nine

604
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 4: and one national champions back in the day.

605
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 6: Yale in eighteen ninety four. Yeah, I mean I remember

606
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 6: that really never happened in any kind of sense of

607
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 6: true modern football, which is crazy to say too, to

608
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 6: go sixteen and oh, it would be something a lot

609
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 6: of places around town you can go tonight. I think

610
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 6: we've talked about and I haven't even seen if they're

611
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 6: sold out of tickets or not not sold out, but

612
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 6: they were given them away, but you had to register

613
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 6: form Fisher's Event Center as a seventy five hundred seat venue.

614
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 6: Do we know if they have, as anybody who heard,

615
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 6: whether they even.

616
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 4: Have tickets left for that one, I've not seen.

617
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 9: No.

618
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 6: If someone knows for sure, let us know. But I

619
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 6: would imagine any of your favorite neighborhood spots will be

620
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 6: more than happy to let your crowd in around the TVs,

621
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 6: order some food, and hang out with many of your

622
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 6: known or unknown friends tonight.

623
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 5: Kevin, Yeah, I would.

624
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 4: I would venture to guess a lot of local water

625
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 4: and holes be packed, and I've seen the students have

626
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 4: already lined up down there in Bloomington for various establishments

627
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 4: down there. I cannot imagine being out in the cold,

628
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 4: but granted, when you're in college, you have a different

629
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 4: level of blankets that probably anybody else does. So yeah,

630
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 4: I mean the scene from Bloomington tonight will be tremendous.

631
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 4: They've taken the fish I saw to show Walter Fountain

632
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 4: to bring it back to eighty seven and seventy six,

633
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 4: So that.

634
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 6: Was probably the administration that removed those fish, right, correct.

635
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 4: I don't believe any members of the student body doing

636
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 4: that just yet, but you know, it is something that

637
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 4: we think about it, you know, kind of here in

638
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 4: our own state. And Kirk Kavin has actually text me,

639
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 4: you know, earlier in a break. I mean, if you

640
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 4: go back and you think about the respective teams and

641
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 4: or schools we cover. We've not had a champion in

642
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 4: quite a while. We've had several get there, but think

643
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 4: about it. I mean, we've gone a bit of a drought. Obviously,

644
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 4: the Pacers in Game seven most recently, of course, obviously

645
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 4: had Purdue in the National Championship game a couple of

646
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 4: years ago. If you want to include Notre Dame, they've

647
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 4: had a couple of national title appearances in the last

648
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 4: fifteen years. You want to go back to the cold

649
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 4: Super Bowl, you know, finishing it, slamming the door shut.

650
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 4: That is not something that we have had here. And granted,

651
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 4: I don't think we've had a favorite like this, I

652
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 4: don't you know, maybe the I don't know, Colt Saints,

653
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 4: I don't think was at this level here. But you know,

654
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 4: Indiana is an overwhelming favorite for tonight. Whereas the Pacers,

655
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 4: albeit you know, a great, great run, I don't think

656
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 4: people viewed them in Game seven. Obviously, Notre Dame was

657
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 4: a notable underdog. Purdue was a notable underdog going up

658
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 4: against Yukon a couple of years ago. Whereas right now

659
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 4: we would sit here tomorrow morning and there would be

660
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 4: a level as weird as it sounds about Indiana football,

661
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 4: but there would be a level of disappointment if Indiana

662
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 4: didn't finish it off tonight, given how big.

663
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 5: Of a f they are.

664
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know that down down in Bloomington, Simon Scott

665
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 6: Assembly Hall is going to have a huge watch party,

666
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 6: but that those tickets have been spoken for for.

667
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 5: A while now.

668
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 6: So if you don't have one of those already, you're

669
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 6: out of lockt there when you were down there. Have

670
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 6: you ever been to the Buzzkirk Chumley Theater in Bloomington.

671
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I actually used to live near there.

672
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 6: They're going to open up their theater for a little

673
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 6: bit of a watch party tonight. So maybe if you're

674
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 6: down in Bloomington and get locked out of all the

675
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 6: bars and you don't want to go shoulder to shoulder

676
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 6: with everybody, maybe you can at least get a nice

677
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 6: seat something like that.

678
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 5: But there'll be all kinds of places.

679
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 6: I think the Athenaeum here is going to have a

680
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,479
Speaker 6: place to go watch the game tonight as well.

681
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 5: I don't think there's gonna be a shortage.

682
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 6: Of TVs watching Indiana football in our state tonight.

683
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 4: No, and I know Adam reached out on the text line,

684
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 4: so I'll repeat it for those that missed it maybe

685
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 4: twenty twenty five minutes ago. But you know, part of

686
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 4: a National Championship broadcast is that you have ample ways

687
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 4: to consume it. By that I mean this. You know

688
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 4: ESPN for example, I think it's ESPN two. You'll have

689
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 4: Pat McAfee and his crew, you know, doing the on

690
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 4: field analysis of the game. One of the ESPN viewing

691
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 4: options for tonight, again, this is via those ESPN streams.

692
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 4: In ESPN App, they will have Don Fischer's call synced

693
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 4: up to the actual telecast. So I'm willing to bet

694
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 4: there are more than just Adam out there that is

695
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 4: probably interested in viewing that. So down on the ESPN

696
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 4: app you can watch that via one of their alternate

697
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 4: channels here, Chris Valler, Kork Kurbstreet. Of course, on the

698
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 4: main call of that, we'll have Sean McDonough will be

699
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 4: on the national radio call join us here in about

700
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 4: twenty minutes. But you know, a lot of people have

701
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 4: always asked about, Hey, how do you sync up Mark

702
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 4: Boyle the Pacer games. How do you sync up Matt

703
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 4: Taylor with the Colts games. That is a viewing option

704
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 4: for you tonight via the ESPN app.

705
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 6: Two nine ten seventy is the number for the text line,

706
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 6: or you can call us up on the phones as

707
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 6: well on the text line. Ryles wants to know does

708
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 6: being the.

709
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 5: Favorite scare you, guys, James?

710
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 6: Does it bother you going in as a heavy favorite

711
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 6: everybody expecting Indiana to just roll in this one.

712
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 11: No, because they've been the best team in football all year,

713
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 11: so you're confident that confident in the work and I

714
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 11: think even if.

715
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 10: You are the favorite, they don't approach it like that.

716
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 11: I think Kurt Signetty does a good job of I

717
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 11: won't say it's lying, but it's trying to make them

718
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 11: believe that they're the underdogs. Still they got something to prove,

719
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 11: which to a degree they still do. I mean, you

720
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 11: haven't won it yet, and that's what they've been chasing

721
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 11: all year. So even though if they went out there

722
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 11: tonight and lost, it wouldn't be a disappointment for the

723
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 11: entire season, it'll still be I think it's a woman

724
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 11: for the players because they know, dude, we're better than

725
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 11: these other teams.

726
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 10: We're better than these other dudes.

727
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 11: And we've shown it all year. All we have to

728
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 11: do is go out there and do it one more time.

729
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 11: So I'm excited for it. And honestly, Kevin, I was

730
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 11: thinking to myself, like, who could be the X factor

731
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 11: in a game like this, you know, if it does

732
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 11: get down to the wire, if it's tighter than the

733
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 11: spread says, And even then I trust IU because they

734
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 11: have so many guys that can help you get it down.

735
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 11: I'm looking at their backfield, I'm like, boy, you know,

736
00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 11: these are guys that have played very well all year, Roman, Nb,

737
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 11: Kaylon Black, but even Kobe Martin. I mean you look,

738
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 11: go back to the last game against Oregon, he ever

739
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 11: was ten yards of carry, only carried it four times.

740
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 11: But still, I mean that's how they I think they

741
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 11: just whoop you with waves.

742
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think out up.

743
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 4: To the Fisher's product, who's been very good when they've

744
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 4: needed to really just kind of run out the clock

745
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 4: this season. But you know, I think there is a

746
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 4: you know, aspect that sounds very fundamental, but I do

747
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 4: think it's Miami's strengths and you know, for Indiana, you know, tackling,

748
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 4: just staying ahead of the change. I think if you

749
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 4: get in some obvious passing situations.

750
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 14: You know.

751
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 4: I go back to when Taylor Tannembaum joined US last

752
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 4: week and she brought up and I've heard this from

753
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 4: some in the Miami you know side of it, of like, hey,

754
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 4: let's compare common opponents. What happened in any Indiana play

755
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 4: Ohio State? What happened when we played Ohio State. At

756
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 4: the very least, you call it a wash if you

757
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 4: really want to dissect the games. Miami was probably a

758
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 4: little bit more impressive. But again, they have to create

759
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 4: that pass rush I think to truly affect you know,

760
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 4: Fernando Mendoz, which again affecting him is a totally different

761
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 4: animal than I think a lot of other quarterbacks. But James,

762
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 4: to your point, Indiana's offset that so well throughout the

763
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 4: season from the ability to stay balanced and the ability

764
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 4: to run it. And it's probably the most nationally underrated

765
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 4: aspect to their football team. I think we're starting nationally.

766
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 4: You are starting to hear more and more people talk

767
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 4: about their defense. Obviously, Mendoz won the Heisman, but their

768
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 4: ability to stay balanced, to stay ahead of the chains,

769
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 4: I think is a true, true, you know weapon for them.

770
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 4: And how does that look tonight. And one other note

771
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 4: we'll throw in there again, Miami's going to be without

772
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 4: one of their starting DB's for the first half tonight.

773
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 4: They are banged up in the secondary. Miami will be

774
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 4: without their starting tight end Elijah Lofton, and there's some

775
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 4: injury questions in the secondary. Indiana really has no injury questions,

776
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 4: you know, exiting the Peach Bowl coming into this game,

777
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 4: so especially in the first half, was Xavier Lucas who

778
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 4: again was out for targeting in that second half of

779
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 4: the Old Miss game. You know, does Mike Shanahan and

780
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 4: company do they dial it up a little bit more

781
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 4: early in the game to try and test the Miami

782
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 4: secondary that has some question marks back there.

783
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think also we know about the Heisman

784
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 6: Trophy Winter Mendoza, we know about the amazing receiving court.

785
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 6: We know about the two headed monster that is the

786
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 6: rushing attack that has been so good for Indiana all year. James,

787
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 6: I still feel like this game ultimately comes down to

788
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 6: the strengths of these teams that probably don't get enough love,

789
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 6: and those are the trenches both sides of the football

790
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 6: offensively and defensively. Hoosiers run the ball over half the time.

791
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 6: Kert Signetty wants to run the football and they've been

792
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 6: good at it, and they have one of the better

793
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 6: rushing attacks in the entire country. They use that to

794
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 6: really set Bernano Mendoza up for success. Miami has a

795
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 6: defensive front that leads all of college football in sacks

796
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 6: and they have often taken over by tackles for losses

797
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 6: and just creating chaos in the backfield there. When you're

798
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 6: watching this game tonight, keep an eye, whether it's offense, defense, whatever,

799
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 6: on the line play because that probably will decide this

800
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 6: football game tonight.

801
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,879
Speaker 11: Absolutely, you want to make sure you're keeping an eye

802
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 11: on Ruben Bain and a Key Messador. I think a

803
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 11: Key Mesador has kind of been not underrated, but we

804
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 11: haven't talked about him as much when it comes to

805
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 11: that Miami line, but he leads them with ten and

806
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 11: a half sacks this year and as another game wrecker.

807
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 11: And again, I think the only way Indiana could lose

808
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 11: this game is if they have those game wrecking sort

809
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 11: of mistakes or plays happen to them. So if you

810
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 11: have a miss block assignment, because all Texas won. I mean,

811
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 11: these guys are so good they'll play on Sunday, So

812
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 11: you don't want to take it for granted and think

813
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 11: that you'll get another chance to make up for enough.

814
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 10: If you have, you've missed assignment.

815
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 11: That could be a strip, sack, fumble, and you know

816
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 11: whatever happens next is a touchdown or whatever that can

817
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 11: flip the game. So can you avoid those plays because,

818
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 11: as I've said for the last couple of weeks, if

819
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 11: you make Miami have to methodically beat you, I just

820
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 11: don't think they can.

821
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, and time of possession, guys, that's a big one.

822
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,399
Speaker 6: Miami thirty four minutes and six seconds. They average time

823
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 6: of possession all year long. That's fourth in the Indiana

824
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 6: was sixth at thirty three fifteen. Both teams like to

825
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 6: put you in situations where they're controlling the clock. With

826
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:13,760
Speaker 6: that run with long put together drives fourth and sixth

827
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:14,360
Speaker 6: in the country.

828
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 5: In time of possession.

829
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 6: They like to dictate the tempo, So keep an eye

830
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 6: on who's doing that tonight as well.

831
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, and again, Indiana's biggest strength to me is Miami's

832
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 4: biggest weakness, and that's Indiana's discipline. In Miami's lack of discipline.

833
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 5: You know when I.

834
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 4: Say Miami's crazy. That's kind of what I'm pointing to

835
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 4: is that, Yeah, they can have a game where they

836
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 4: have what no penalties against Ohio State, and they can

837
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,280
Speaker 4: also have a game where they had ten of them

838
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 4: against Old Miss, So that'll be another aspect to it

839
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:46,240
Speaker 4: as well against seven point fifty approximate kick time tonight there,

840
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 4: and we'll have Sean McDonald join us here in about

841
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:53,720
Speaker 4: fifteen and Scott Dolson at nine o'clock the IU eighty

842
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 4: joining us here on National Championship Monday.

843
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, you want to talk about taking care of your business,

844
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 6: indianaan Keviny is fourth in the nation for fewest penalties

845
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 6: per game at just three point five, and if you

846
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 6: go just the last three games against the big guys

847
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 6: Ohio State, Alabama, Oregon, only three point seven, which tells

848
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 6: me very consistent. That's just who they are, James, They're

849
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 6: going to stay disciplined tonight. That you would just expect

850
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,320
Speaker 6: that because of the entire season.

851
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, for sure.

852
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 11: I'm curious though, just how much nerves are factored into

853
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 11: it. It is a national championship, after all, and it's the

854
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 11: biggest game of your life to this point, So how

855
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 11: does that feel how quickly are you able to settle in.

856
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 11: I would imagine there's some extra, a gentle and pumping,

857
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 11: as much as you want to try to act like

858
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 11: there's not, So you know, do we see some you know,

859
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 11: do we see an early time out or something like

860
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 11: that to get everybody to get that second wing going,

861
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 11: because I'm sure there's gonna be a lot going on.

862
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 11: But at the same time, I remember asking Rick Carlisle

863
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,280
Speaker 11: there is during the NBA Finals, and I can't remember

864
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 11: his answer, and honestly, he was so locked in back

865
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 11: then he probably didn't give me much of one. But

866
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 11: I do wonder if there is a bit of relief

867
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 11: when you just finally get to the game because there's

868
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 11: so much build up, so much hype. You're talking about previews,

869
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 11: and you probably did a million media things. I mean,

870
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 11: every time I turn on the TV or scroll through

871
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 11: my phone on social media, kurse and Eddy was giving

872
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 11: another press conference and I'm like, wait, then he just

873
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,439
Speaker 11: talked to us like two hours ago or something like that.

874
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 11: So there's so many sit down interviews and things like that.

875
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 11: So forgot, like Vanana Mendoza, are you just relieved when

876
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 11: you're like, okay, all that's over, and now I'll have

877
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 11: to do is play the game that obviously got me

878
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 11: to the point where I am this big deal.

879
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's one of those crazy things.

880
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 6: The longest time between waiting for your last game and

881
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 6: getting to the next National Championship game is probably Friday

882
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 6: and Saturday Sunday. I guess in this case, Saturday and Sunday.

883
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 6: You wake up this morning, Kevin, Now, it's just game

884
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 6: day routine. You have your breakfast at the same time,

885
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 6: you do your stuff at the same time, you have

886
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 6: a meeting at the same time, you do your last

887
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 6: minute checks at the same time. Game day, I think

888
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 6: is not as bad as any of the other days

889
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 6: for waiting things because you have very specific routine things

890
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 6: you do that lead you up to that game and

891
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 6: kind of get your ready to go for that game.

892
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 6: Last thing on penalties too, Miami was one hundred and

893
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 6: thirteenth in the country and penalties committed this year, but

894
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 6: they've been much better in the postseason in their last

895
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 6: three just four point seven per game, So they've been

896
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 6: disciplined during this postseason run.

897
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 4: Well, I think it's a little misleading because the old

898
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 4: misgame they had ten. The'llhow steak and they had zero, right,

899
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 4: So it goes back to your balls. Comedy descends on

900
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 4: the game with it here, you know, and kind of

901
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 4: how I view it, Mark Dyke in your heart this

902
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:40,240
Speaker 4: morning is where full. I'm disappointed.

903
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 12: Obviously, I thought they could have possibly pulled it off.

904
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 12: But for a season that I think they're projected to

905
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 12: win like seven or eight week games, to win eleven,

906
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 12: win the division, beat your art trivals in the wild

907
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 12: card round, and come up just short against the Rams.

908
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 12: I thought they played them pretty well, but a couple

909
00:40:58,600 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 12: of things just didn't go to where. Whether it was

910
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 12: the missed fourth down conversions, not going for field goals,

911
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 12: ro Madunze dropping a surefire touchdown at one point, and

912
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 12: then the couple of interceptions. I'm I'm optimistic for the future.

913
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 4: Do you want to go for two?

914
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 13: No?

915
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 12: I thought at that point, just you know, take it

916
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 12: to overtime, see what happens.

917
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 4: I thought you were holding.

918
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 12: I thought you're playing the Rams relatively even I didn't

919
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 12: think the Rams were the better team at any point.

920
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 12: I was just like, Okay, you're kind of hanging with

921
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 12: them and all that stuff.

922
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 4: So then he got three and out in overtime, yeah.

923
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 12: And then so see what you can do there and stuff.

924
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 12: So optimistic. Caleb was making throws that I've not seen

925
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 12: in my lifetime. Whether I was was with it in

926
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 12: a Bear's uniform or not, he was making some incredible

927
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:48,760
Speaker 12: plays all season long. So a season full of memories

928
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 12: and hopefully this is just the ground floor and you

929
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 12: hope the defense improves next season and all that stuff.

930
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 12: But you're one of Ben Johnson a wild success, I

931
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 12: would say.

932
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 11: I will say this one of my takeaways from watching

933
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 11: all the divisional round games was thinking to myself when

934
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 11: analyzing the Colts, boy, you need to do that quarterback.

935
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 11: You need a defense, and you don't have either right now.

936
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 11: I don't be all doom and gloom, but boy, that

937
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:17,919
Speaker 11: was a lot of the responses I actually got during

938
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 11: the game. Whenever I will give a compliment to Caleb Williams,

939
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:25,920
Speaker 11: Mark or Josh Allen or somebody, there's inevitably some Colts

940
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 11: fans telling me, well, I wish we had a guy

941
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 11: like that, and I'm like, man, it is hard to

942
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 11: win without that type of dude. I mean, you'll see

943
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 11: some teams try to do that. Going for think the

944
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 11: Patriots to a degree, Drake May is good. I don't

945
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,279
Speaker 11: think that he's on the level of like he'll just

946
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 11: you know, carry you to a victory.

947
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 10: The defense really helped him out.

948
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 11: But boy, I left a lot of those games thinking

949
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 11: to myself as the cult reporter for the athletic and

950
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,840
Speaker 11: here on these airwaves, they're not as close as perhaps

951
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 11: I thought they were maybe back in you know, when

952
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 11: they were eight and two, and.

953
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 12: There's a lot of unanswered questions for them as well,

954
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 12: and also just the loot. You see how wide open

955
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 12: it is this year, and it's just like, man, you

956
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 12: guys are eight and two.

957
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 10: Yeah, I've thought about that too.

958
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 11: On the other flow of the one, I've got a

959
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 11: more positive no, like, man, if they have stayed healthy,

960
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 11: would they have been in this type of situation because

961
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 11: it is wide open and probably as wide open.

962
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 10: As it going to be.

963
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:14,720
Speaker 5: What's crazy? Go ahead?

964
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 4: I'll just say Harrison MeVis the kicker there on the

965
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 4: game winner. He was actually one of the kickers the

966
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 4: Colts worked out after Spencer Schrader. So you just kind

967
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,479
Speaker 4: of think about how all of that unfolded. Their shout

968
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,439
Speaker 4: out to Warsaw and kicker, as they call it, shout

969
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 4: out to the orthopedic capital of the world right there,

970
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 4: Penguin points Stonehenge golf Course, Harrison Neves, Warsaw, Indiana. I

971
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 4: didn't know NBC did that. They were like throwing home

972
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,719
Speaker 4: towns there at the bottom of the player's bios there,

973
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 4: so shout out yes to the thicker kicker there on

974
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 4: the game winner.

975
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 6: I was going to point out that you take a

976
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 6: look at all four games this past weekend, I think

977
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 6: it's safe to say we'd think that the two best

978
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 6: quarterbacks going into this weekend, or at least that performed this weekend,

979
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 6: probably Caleb william and Josh Allen and both come up

980
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,760
Speaker 6: overtime losers Kevin and so just having that great quarterback

981
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 6: don't always guarantee, oh, that you're going to be advanced.

982
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 10: U I Wan'll take a pass on that. I'm not

983
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 10: rolling with Josh Allen, brother.

984
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 6: You had a lot of turnovers, That's what I mean.

985
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 6: He also kept this team in the game too. At

986
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 6: the same time, if.

987
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 4: You're saying the best quarterbacks like career wise, I mean

988
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford over Kayleb Williams, Yeah, ten times out of ten.

989
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 6: So, but who would you take moving forward at this

990
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:20,439
Speaker 6: point in time.

991
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's all eight right.

992
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 6: But that's all I'm saying that. That's why it gets

993
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,880
Speaker 6: back to the original question with Mark though, That's why

994
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 6: you're not all in the dumps and the gallows because

995
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 6: you've got a guy that looks like he's going to

996
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 6: be a franchise quarterback for a long time.

997
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 4: I understand that, but sports also tells us that when

998
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,399
Speaker 4: you have the opportunity, you walk through that door, because

999
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 4: if you don't, I mean, I'm not trying to turn

1000
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 4: this into a Peyton Manning. You know, Super Bowl debate

1001
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 4: here in Indianapolis, But you think Colts fans thought that

1002
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 4: it just be won Super Bowl here? You know, just

1003
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,319
Speaker 4: when these chances arise, and you know, look at the

1004
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 4: list of championship performances, championship moments that we've had in

1005
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 4: our state, in our city. Unfortunately a lot of them

1006
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,720
Speaker 4: have been losses in that game. So yeah, you think,

1007
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 4: you hope, you believe, but you Mark would be the

1008
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 4: first to tell you. The Bears also one coin flip

1009
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,799
Speaker 4: game after coin flip game after coin flip game after

1010
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 4: coin flip game, seven games decided another two minutes.

1011
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 11: So it's what the NFL's great man because of that,

1012
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 11: because you just.

1013
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 10: Don't know, right, you don't know.

1014
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 4: You don't to steal a Pascal Siakam quote. You don't

1015
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 4: fall out of that and get right back there.

1016
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think we just got into that weird time

1017
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 6: where it was inevitable that Brady was going to win

1018
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 6: Super Bowls and that Mahomes is going to at least.

1019
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 5: Be in the Super Bowl or win the Super Bowl.

1020
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 5: That seems to be over.

1021
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,879
Speaker 10: Yeah, pick my two best quarterbacks with the weekend.

1022
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 11: I'll probably go Bo Nicks, who unfortunately is out for

1023
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 11: the rest of the year used to the fracture ankle,

1024
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 11: and Sam Darnold was cooking out there in Seattle.

1025
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 5: All right.

1026
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 6: Coming up at a moment, we will speak to the

1027
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 6: man who will call the game on ESPN Radio tonight,

1028
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 6: our good friend Sean McDonough.

1029
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 5: Stop spy.

1034
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 2: I think it's time to sharpen the saw now, sort

1035
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 2: of those warm fuzzies over out the door. It's sentimentalism.

1036
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 2: It's time to go play a game against a great opponent.

1037
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,879
Speaker 2: We gotta have a sharp edge going into this game.

1038
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 2: You know you don't go to war with warm milk

1039
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:22,760
Speaker 2: and cookies.

1040
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 3: Myself focusing on the job and myself focused on the

1041
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 3: present gives the whosers the best chance to win. And

1042
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 3: I owe it to my teammates and my dog is

1043
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 3: an altogionation.

1044
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 6: For Bondoza takes the staff, he's gonna keep it himself,

1045
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 6: turns the.

1046
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 7: Quarter fine to make it to National Championship. And just

1047
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 7: seeing the evolution of the fans at the game, it

1048
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 7: just shows how much these fans been waiting for a

1049
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:46,719

1064
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 13: at the clock, ready to go back to sleep for

1065
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,359
Speaker 13: a few more hours, and putn't fall back to sleep.

1066
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:52,760
Speaker 13: So you know, like most people, very excited about the game,

1067
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,720
Speaker 13: sitting here pouring through the notes and stats and charts

1068
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 13: to be fully ready to go when game time rolls around.

1069
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 13: That this is why we do this, right, I mean,

1070
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 13: they have a chance to call a national championship game

1071
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:04,919
Speaker 13: is the ultimate thrill.

1072
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 4: Sean is always thank you for the time we got

1073
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 4: a tweet here when people heard that you were coming

1074
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 4: on saying it was at the stadium in Atlanta. One

1075
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 4: of my first orders of business once I regained composure

1076
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,319
Speaker 4: after the D'Angelo pons picked six was to find Sean

1077
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:20,720
Speaker 4: McDonough's call of the d Angelo Pons pick six certainly

1078
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 4: a hell of a way to start the Peach Bowl.

1079
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 4: Let's go here though, for tonight. Are you surprised? I don't

1080
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 4: know how much you pay attention to it. Are you

1081
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 4: surprised at all by the line Indiana favored by seven

1082
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:30,760
Speaker 4: and a half.

1083
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 13: No, not really. I think it's actually come down a

1084
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 13: little bit. I don't pay much attention to it, but

1085
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 13: when I looked a couple of days ago, I think

1086
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,280
Speaker 13: it was up around eight and a half. So maybe

1087
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,560
Speaker 13: there's a little late move here toward Miami. I don't

1088
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 13: think so. You know, we were told in our game

1089
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 13: notes heading into the Peach Bowl that if Indiana won,

1090
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 13: it would probably open at about five and a half

1091
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 13: against Miami, and then I just think Indiana was so

1092
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 13: dominant again again Oregon like they were against Alabama, that

1093
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:05,360
Speaker 13: that's what drove it higher. You know, it's hard to

1094
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,759
Speaker 13: you know, it's hard to say the number is too

1095
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 13: high when you just see what Indiana's done to Alabama

1096
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 13: and Oregon.

1097
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 11: Sean, when you look at some of the overlap between

1098
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 11: the programs. I'm sure it happens, because I feel like

1099
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 11: in sports is always like seven degrees of separation, so

1100
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 11: to speak. But Alex Miriaball, the Miami offensive line coach,

1101
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 11: having played with Randa Mendoz's dad and Mario christ Ball,

1102
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 11: how much have you learned about just the whole. I

1103
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 11: can't call it a family tree, but maybe a buddy

1104
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 11: tree when it comes to these two teams.

1105
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 13: Yeah, there's so many great storylines like that. I mean,

1106
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:46,439
Speaker 13: obviously Fernando having this magical year in Indiana, but back

1107
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,840
Speaker 13: home in Miami, try to finish it off with the

1108
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 13: national championship, you know, against the school he grew up

1109
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:56,479
Speaker 13: a half a mile from the University of Miami, thought

1110
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 13: about going there out of high school as a walk on.

1111
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,400
Speaker 13: They didn't even want them. That was previous coaching staff.

1112
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 13: You mentioned the connection to Mario, you know, his dad

1113
00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 13: played with Mario in high school and with Alex Meyer Ball.

1114
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 13: You know, there's a lot of intertwining. I was surprised

1115
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 13: until I watched the interview that Rhys Davis did with

1116
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 13: the two head coaches that they had never met Crystal

1117
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 13: Ball and Signetti, even though they had a common connection

1118
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:27,359
Speaker 13: obviously both been assistants at Alabama, they didn't overlap there

1119
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 13: and they hadn't met till this weekend. So no matter

1120
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 13: which way this game ends, we're going to be kind

1121
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 13: of pouring through those storylines and the entanglements between.

1122
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:40,200
Speaker 5: The two programs.

1123
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 6: Sean McDonough ESPN joining us here on the payless Lickers hotline.

1124
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,200
Speaker 6: We have been following Indiana very closely. All you're here

1125
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:48,720
Speaker 6: in Indianapolis, as.

1126
00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:49,280
Speaker 5: You might expect.

1127
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,800
Speaker 6: What can you tell us about this Miami team, how

1128
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,359
Speaker 6: they've gotten to this point with I know they won

1129
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,400
Speaker 6: seven in a row, but they've lost two games on

1130
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,040
Speaker 6: ranked teams this year. Like, who is this team and

1131
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 6: what are their strengths?

1132
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 5: What should we look out for tonight?

1133
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 13: Well, they're really good. You know. We did the opening

1134
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 13: game of the year here, which seems like it was

1135
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:10,480
Speaker 13: five years ago. It was in the end of August,

1136
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:13,440
Speaker 13: August thirty first, when they played Notre Dame, which, as

1137
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 13: you guys know, you know, it turned out to be

1138
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 13: one of the most important games of the regular season

1139
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:20,799
Speaker 13: in college football because that ultimately was the win that

1140
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,440
Speaker 13: got Miami in by virtue of the head to head

1141
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 13: victory over Notre Dame, and it's the loss that kept

1142
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 13: Notre Dame out of the College Football playoff. We walked

1143
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 13: away that night, I said to Greg McElroy, I don't

1144
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:33,719
Speaker 13: know if we'll see another team if I don't think

1145
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 13: we will see another team that is as good on

1146
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,399
Speaker 13: both lines as scrimmage, as Miami when you can bind

1147
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:43,359
Speaker 13: the talent along the offensive and defensive lines. And that's

1148
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:46,840
Speaker 13: the way Mario Christobal has built this program. He was

1149
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 13: an offensive lineman here. He talks all the time about

1150
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,560
Speaker 13: physicality and violence and being the more physical team, and

1151
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 13: you know that's really held up in this college football playoff.

1152
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 13: You look at what they did at Texas A and

1153
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,840
Speaker 13: m holding them to three points. You know, they really

1154
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:07,479
Speaker 13: physically manhandled I thought Ohio State in their second game

1155
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 13: in this playoff, and then you know they held the

1156
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:11,760
Speaker 13: ball for more than forty one minutes against old myths.

1157
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 13: So a physical team obviously, as you guys know, veteran quarterback,

1158
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,880
Speaker 13: sixty year guy and another one of those great storylines.

1159
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 13: You know, kind of had a bad ending at the

1160
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 13: University of Georgia last year, injured this time last year,

1161
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 13: it comes to Miami, kind of gets himself back up

1162
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 13: on the college football national map and scored the winning

1163
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 13: touchdown in the last game. So if they win, you know,

1164
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 13: he's going to be a huge part of the story.

1165
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 13: And you know a lot of talent too, defensive ends

1166
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,879
Speaker 13: who were going to be first line first round pick

1167
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 13: in Mesador and Bain. You know, the freshman wide receiver

1168
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 13: Malachi Tony is as dynamic a playmaker really as there

1169
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 13: is in college football. So plenty of talent, you know.

1170
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 13: I think if they're going to have a chance tonight,

1171
00:52:57,600 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 13: they just have to avoid the mistakes. And they were

1172
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 13: fortunate to win the last game, and they attend penalties

1173
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,759
Speaker 13: when they lost those two games you mentioned, Jeff, you know,

1174
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 13: a lot of turnovers. Carson Victory four interceptions in one

1175
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,640
Speaker 13: of the two losses. So you know, if they do that,

1176
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 13: you're not going to beat Indiana because Indiana hasn't a

1177
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 13: turnover yet in the playoffs, and I think they've had

1178
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 13: six penalties, so Indiana is likely not going to beat itself.

1179
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 4: I think it's his tenth time calling the National Championship

1180
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,280
Speaker 4: here on ESPN Radio. The Great Sean McDonald with us

1181
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:29,879
Speaker 4: on the day of the game, less than twelve hours

1182
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,720
Speaker 4: away at this point from the National Championship in Miami. Sean,

1183
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:35,840
Speaker 4: it seems to be part of the talk of this

1184
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 4: Indiana run. People around college football cannot believe the takeovers

1185
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 4: that occurred at the Rose Bowl and at the Peach Bowl.

1186
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,239
Speaker 4: And we'll see what it looks like tonight. Were you

1187
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 4: struck by that particularly maybe after that D'Angel Ponds picked

1188
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,279
Speaker 4: six that you called a week ago.

1189
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,799
Speaker 13: I was struck by it just walking in. You know,

1190
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 13: I wasn't at the rose Ball watching it on TV.

1191
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,439
Speaker 13: Obviously hard to tell what the percentage of the fan

1192
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,600
Speaker 13: base is was because you know, Alabama had similar colors.

1193
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 13: But you know, walking in to Mercedes Benz Stadium in

1194
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 13: Atlanta last week or whatever it was, you know, ten

1195
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,920
Speaker 13: days ago, it you were just struck by it. I

1196
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 13: remember when we came on the air. I think one

1197
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 13: of the first sentences I said was, you know, standing

1198
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:24,440
Speaker 13: only crowd filing into Mercedes Benz Stadium, most of them

1199
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 13: clad in crimson and cream or cream and crimson, because

1200
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:31,800
Speaker 13: it was I mean, it was cunning really. Uh So

1201
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:33,919
Speaker 13: it'll be interesting to see tonight, right. I Mean there's

1202
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 13: been so much talk about how hard the tickets are.

1203
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 13: The average ticket price a couple of days ago was

1204
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,680
Speaker 13: over forty three hundred dollars a ticket. You know, it's

1205
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 13: a home game from Miami in their stadium. A lot

1206
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,920
Speaker 13: of times at these National Championship games, you know a

1207
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 13: lot of tickets are already doled out ahead of time

1208
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:52,319
Speaker 13: to monsors and that sort of thing. So it'll be

1209
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 13: really interesting to see what the breakdown in the crowd

1210
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 13: is tonight.

1211
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 10: One more from me Sean.

1212
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,400
Speaker 11: Obviously, Indiana has plenty of playmakers, but how much of

1213
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 11: a difference maker do you think Charlie Becker has been

1214
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 11: in He's playoff.

1215
00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 10: Look at his numbers and it's kind of like a.

1216
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 11: Video game like fo receptions, but he also has two

1217
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 11: touchdown and he's averaging over twenty three yards or whatever

1218
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:13,800
Speaker 11: it is a catch.

1219
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,480
Speaker 13: Yeah, it's really really remarkable. It's a big part of

1220
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 13: their season. You know, his emergence. Obviously got an opportunity

1221
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:24,360
Speaker 13: a mid season because of the injury to Sarrat, and

1222
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,440
Speaker 13: he really has taken over and run with it. And

1223
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 13: you know, now that Sarrat's been back for a while,

1224
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 13: you know, just added very talented depth to their wide

1225
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,400
Speaker 13: receiver group. You know, he's been a huge playmaker. The

1226
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 13: Bay have playmakers everywhere, as you guys know, better than

1227
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,720
Speaker 13: anybody else, and just a terrific team. You know. It's

1228
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:45,919
Speaker 13: as I said last week when we did the game

1229
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,799
Speaker 13: against the Oregon if there's a weakness, I don't know

1230
00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:52,239
Speaker 13: where it is. And I have a feeling tonight I'm

1231
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 13: sitting here because I have too much time and that

1232
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:57,520
Speaker 13: I couldn't sleep. So, you know, Brendan Frankie apparently is

1233
00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:01,880
Speaker 13: going to be available to kick tonight. As you guys know,

1234
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 13: he's been out with a groin injury for the last

1235
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,600
Speaker 13: seven or eight games. He's twenty four years old, He's

1236
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:11,560
Speaker 13: been at one, two, three, four, five different schools. He's

1237
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 13: attempted three field goals in his career, made one of them.

1238
00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:17,839
Speaker 13: You know, I just have a feeling the way this

1239
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,919
Speaker 13: is going, it's going to come down to him trying

1240
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 13: a long field goal at the end of the game,

1241
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,680
Speaker 13: and that would be something else if that's the way

1242
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 13: it happened.

1243
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 5: Well, it's coming quickly.

1244
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,360
Speaker 6: It's game day and it's gonna be a lot of fun,

1245
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 6: do do you.

1246
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 5: All you got to do is show up. You're so

1247
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:33,880
Speaker 5: good at it.

1248
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:35,800
Speaker 6: You'll do your best and I'm sure we'll listen to

1249
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 6: some of those calls tomorrow and we just can't wait

1250
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:39,799
Speaker 6: to see how it all plays out tonight. But thanks

1251
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:43,200
Speaker 6: for being with us all season long, Shawan, We appreciate it.

1252
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,200
Speaker 13: My pleasure anytime, guys. I hope it's a great game.

1253
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,960
Speaker 13: Then look forward to chatting you again. Out.

1254
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 6: We'll do it soon. There is Sean McDonough, a great

1255
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 6: voice of ESPN television and radio. He's got the radio

1256
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 6: call for Indiana and Miami on the national scene tonight.

1257
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,440
Speaker 6: Of course, done fit sure over on w i b C.

1258
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 6: I think a lot of folks here in Indiana want

1259
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 6: to listen to Fish do that one.

1260
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 11: I would get absolutely need Sean to get a nap

1261
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 11: in before the game.

1262
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,520
Speaker 4: I think that's seven in the morning. I think I

1263
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:18,520
Speaker 4: saw three thirty seven baby game d Sean dial him

1264
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 4: up and see if he could rock Nelly back to

1265
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 4: sleep with a soothing voice.

1266
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 5: How long were we awake with Nelly last night?

1267
00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 4: Nothing to bad to.

1268
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 10: Say, Man, I don't see four am was him catching

1269
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 10: a flight.

1270
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,240
Speaker 12: Up early told him. I was like, I hope you

1271
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,160
Speaker 12: get a nap. He's like, from your lips of God's ears,

1272
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:31,520
Speaker 12: I hope.

1273
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 4: So, you know, it's funny. He brings up Brandon Frankie.

1274
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 4: For those that have not totally followed, I guess the

1275
00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:41,840
Speaker 4: IU kicking situation this season. Frankie was the one that

1276
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 4: made a fifty eight yard or late in the first

1277
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 4: half out in Oregon, which you know, it's kind of

1278
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:50,440
Speaker 4: one of those like, you know, at that point of

1279
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 4: the season, obviously they had treated James Boyd's fighting a

1280
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 4: lion I like they were just pure dirt.

1281
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:58,720
Speaker 11: Yeah, that was me and Max playing one on one

1282
00:57:58,760 --> 00:57:59,960
Speaker 11: in late September.

1283
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,160
Speaker 4: But you know, that kick from Frankie was actually a huge,

1284
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,320
Speaker 4: huge play in that Oregon game. And he's been dealing

1285
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 4: with an injury. But Sean McDonald leaving Snowstone unturnab'll see

1286
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:13,000
Speaker 4: if he can kick tonight and if you know, if

1287
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 4: such a situation arises, Indiana hasn't had to worry too

1288
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 4: much about field goal kicking here in the last couple

1289
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:17,640
Speaker 4: of games.

1290
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm looking at his resume, Frankie, and it's twenty

1291
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 11: twenty Morningside College, twenty twenty one, Nebraska, twenty twenty two,

1292
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:31,120
Speaker 11: Nebraska twenty twenty three, Georgia Southern twenty twenty four, Texas State,

1293
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 11: and then.

1294
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:35,760
Speaker 10: He ended up Yeah at Ius.

1295
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:37,240
Speaker 4: He's not the normal kicker. He's just kind of the

1296
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 4: kickoff guy, the long distance kicker.

1297
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:40,600
Speaker 10: Still though, that's a lot of moving around the country.

1298
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,000
Speaker 4: But again, that's about the only injury Indiana's really worried

1299
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 4: about for tonight. Here Miami a little bit more banged up,

1300
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 4: And you mentioned the Charlie Becker thing, and you know,

1301
00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 4: you go back to that Oregon game, the first Oregon game,

1302
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:52,840
Speaker 4: Becker didn't have a single catch of that game. Sarat

1303
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 4: gets hurt, you know there middle of the season. That

1304
00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:58,240
Speaker 4: has kind of opened the door for Charlie Becker. And

1305
00:58:58,280 --> 00:59:01,560
Speaker 4: again I look at tonight, you know, with Miami having

1306
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 4: one of their starting corners out due to targeting for

1307
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 4: the first half, they're a little bit banged up. Outside

1308
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 4: of that in the secondary, does that influence for Nanda

1309
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,600
Speaker 4: Mendoza and Mike Shanahan from a play calling standpoint at all?

1310
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 4: In the first half, do we see a little bit

1311
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:17,800
Speaker 4: more of a hey, let's take a shot or two. Yes,

1312
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:21,880
Speaker 4: we realized Miami's front four can be menacing, But do

1313
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 4: you feel like there's an advantage personnel wise, particularly early

1314
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 4: in the game tonight, to try and dial that up.

1315
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 4: I think that is a big, big storyline to keep

1316
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 4: an eye on.

1317
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I like when teams do that kind of

1318
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 6: try to put the other team on its back foot

1319
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,439
Speaker 6: and say, hey, we're coming right after you today, there's

1320
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 6: going to be there's not gonna be any of that nine.

1321
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,959
Speaker 4: Which again that's part of it. This is also personnel based.

1322
00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 4: You know the fact that there is the targeting issue there.

1323
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,120
Speaker 4: You know, does that kind of add to some of it?

1324
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,600
Speaker 4: Or is Indiana a little bit more of a Hey,

1325
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:52,080
Speaker 4: let's be methodical, let's establish the run game, and then

1326
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,920
Speaker 4: you know, take our shots as the game moves along.

1327
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:57,120
Speaker 6: And it may just be Indiana just says this is

1328
00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 6: what we do. We're just going to come out and

1329
00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:01,200
Speaker 6: be ourselves to your to your latter point there.

1330
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 5: But it's gonna be fun to watch.

1331
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 6: And of course it'll kick off about seven fifty tonight.

1332
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:07,800
Speaker 6: Here's something I hadn't thought about. Tom Fernelli, who covers

1333
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 6: college football, tweeted this out over the weekend. If Indiana

1334
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 6: beats Miami tonight, Kevin, it will give the Hoosiers three

1335
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:17,800
Speaker 6: bowl wins in a span of eighteen days. Indiana had

1336
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:21,320
Speaker 6: three bowl wins in school history coming into this postseason.

1337
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:22,760
Speaker 5: How crazy is that?

1338
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 4: I do have a question, Utter lips are right? Was

1339
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:27,959
Speaker 4: it the Copper Bowl was their last bowl?

1340
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:28,080
Speaker 15: Well?

1341
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:30,200
Speaker 6: Early nineties New Year's Day?

1342
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:31,720
Speaker 4: Is the Copper Bowl still a thing?

1343
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,440
Speaker 10: I'm gonna say this sounds like it's fake Copper Bowl?

1344
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:36,360
Speaker 5: Boy, it was in Tucson. I think a.

1345
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 11: Little better material if you win the National Championship, I

1346
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:39,760
Speaker 11: would think.

1347
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:41,120
Speaker 10: But I have a question.

1348
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 11: So you you told us about the ticket breakdown all

1349
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 11: that and how corporate gets some of those. Can you

1350
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,240
Speaker 11: explain what that means? I got that question a lot

1351
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 11: like over the weekend. But what does that mean when

1352
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 11: there's a corporate allotment of tickets?

1353
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:53,960
Speaker 16: Yeah?

1354
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:56,600
Speaker 4: I don't know for sure, but my assumption is the

1355
01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 4: CFP obviously has corporate sponsors. You'll see them throughout the set.

1356
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 4: You'll see them obviously from a commercial base, And I

1357
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 4: think you're allotmant they are the the the third piece

1358
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:08,280
Speaker 4: of the pie twenty five thousand Indiana twenty five thousand

1359
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 4: to Miami. The rest of that I think goes to

1360
01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 4: those corporate sponsors of the game itself. Boy, I think

1361
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 4: it's not that entirely different of you know, if the

1362
01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 4: Colts were to make the Super Bowl, the Colts bigger

1363
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:21,920
Speaker 4: sponsors would be.

1364
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 10: Yeah, that makes sense.

1365
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 4: You know, we are a partner with the Colts. I assume,

1366
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 4: you know, whatever, our station would get a couple of tickets,

1367
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 4: you know, something along those lines for the National Championship.

1368
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 4: So yeah, I don't you know. I know the crowd

1369
01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 4: situation has been talked about a lot. I would guess

1370
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 4: Indiana would have a little bit more. I think Miami's

1371
01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 4: going for the orange out with their crowd. So I

1372
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 4: don't know how Orange and Red will necessarily look on

1373
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 4: TV coming up tonight. But as we mentioned a lead

1374
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 4: off the show, the secondary ticket market has climbed significantly.

1375
01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:55,960
Speaker 4: It is north of four thousand dollars as we sit

1376
01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 4: here eleven hours and change from kickoff what.

1377
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 6: We say it was about twenty eight twenty nine hundred

1378
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 6: dollars somewhere.

1379
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 4: There, so it has risen a good amount.

1380
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 6: Wow, how much would you be willing to spend if

1381
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:09,640
Speaker 6: money was no object?

1382
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 5: Would you just go buy a ticket?

1383
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,160
Speaker 10: Or is it still everyone would do that?

1384
01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 16: I don't know.

1385
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 6: Isn't there a point where there's money was no object?

1386
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:17,720

1409
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 11: He was up yesterday giving us a bunch of you

01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 11: know what because we weren't able to play basketball without him.

1411
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 12: Have you guys seen the parking prices? They're asking for

1412
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 12: hard rock?

1413
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 10: Why would you park? But go ahead?

1414
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:20,960
Speaker 4: Well, I guess if you live there, I'm saying like

1415
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,600
Speaker 4: six hundred dollars. Well, and again I've said before, I

1416
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:25,200
Speaker 4: haven't been there in a few years, but it is

1417
01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:28,960
Speaker 4: a zoo that stadium, and I believe we have the

1418
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:34,360
Speaker 4: President attending tonight's game. I cannot even imagine how crazy

1419
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:38,360
Speaker 4: security getting into that place. Getting out of that place. Boy,

1420
01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 4: I do not I mean obviously envy people that are

1421
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:42,600
Speaker 4: going to be in that environment, but I do not

1422
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 4: envy the entrance or the exit. Yeah, for tonight's game

1423
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:46,440
Speaker 4: at all.

1424
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 11: They were told to get there even earlier. Now if

1425
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 11: the president is going to be on tap, and I

1426
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:53,920
Speaker 11: wonder what that means. So if the get game is

1427
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 11: that in about twelve hours, how early are you getting there?

1428
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,640
Speaker 4: You remember, like Doug Boles's reaction, I asked my question

1429
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:00,600
Speaker 4: a few months back when it was remembered that Trump,

1430
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:02,560
Speaker 4: you know, could be at the DY five hundred, and

1431
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:06,560
Speaker 4: like hearing Doug Bowles's voice describing, you know what the

1432
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:09,480
Speaker 4: plan looks like for if Trump is there or if

1433
01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 4: he's not there? Uh so I do remember there? Yeah,

1434
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:15,400
Speaker 4: so yeah, I can only imagine what that'll be like.

1435
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 11: For I don't know if would have made it to

1436
01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 11: my first five hundred if that happened.

1437
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,640
Speaker 6: It's hard to get there even when you when you

1438
01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 6: get up at four in the morning and go.

1439
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:24,760
Speaker 10: I I definitely was.

1440
01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 11: I made the rocky mistake of oh I'll just you know,

1441
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 11: sleep in a little bit.

1442
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:28,400
Speaker 10: It can't be that bad.

1443
01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 11: It was that bad, So I think from here on

1444
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 11: out i'll probably get there for the sun is up.

1445
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,040
Speaker 6: All right, we're getting closer and closer. We are exactly

1446
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 6: uh what about uh ten and a half hours away?

1447
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:43,600
Speaker 6: We're getting close. I guess eleven and a half hours.

1448
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 6: I don't know, but we're getting close. And we'll tell

Speaker 6: do tonight.

1461
01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:28,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I think interest to a lot of IU

1462
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 4: fans out there part of the different viewing options for

1463
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:35,960
Speaker 4: tonight's game. If you have the ESPN app, you can

1464
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:41,080
Speaker 4: have Don Fisher and Company synced up with the actual

1465
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:44,400
Speaker 4: television picture. So I know if people try to do

1466
01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 4: that with Colts Gamespacers Games, whatever, you have to do

1467
01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 4: that manually and kind of be a little bit of

1468
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:50,840
Speaker 4: a hassle. ESPN will do that for you, but you

1469
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:53,280
Speaker 4: need the ESPN app one of their viewing options for tonight.

1470
01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:55,600
Speaker 4: So I assume that will be of interest to some

1471
01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:57,800
Speaker 4: IU fans out there. If you can't listen to our

1472

1474
01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 4: your experience tonight, So check that out ESPNN.

1475
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:08,560
Speaker 6: All right, that comes your way again later on tonight.

1476
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 6: Indiana seven and a half point favorites the over under

1477
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 6: forty seven and a half. Indiana goes in with a

1478
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 6: record of fifteen and oh Miami has won seven in

1479
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,959
Speaker 6: a row. They are thirteen and two overall. And again

1480
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:21,960
Speaker 6: I point out in the last two games, Fernanda Mendoza,

1481
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:24,840
Speaker 6: your Heisman Trophy winner thirty one of thirty six for

1482
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:29,520
Speaker 6: three hundred and sixty nine yards, eight touchdowns, no interceptions

1483
01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 6: and just five incompletions. He has been tremendous the computer

1484
01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:37,760
Speaker 6: models give Indiana a sixty eight point three percent chance

1485
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,280
Speaker 6: to win. So not only does Indiana go in as

1486
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 6: a seven and a half point favorite, but even the

1487
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:44,080
Speaker 6: computers are like go Hoosiers.

1488
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:45,400
Speaker 5: We'll see what happens tonight.

1489
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm excited for I want to know if Fana

1490
01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:51,280
Speaker 11: Mendoza has a belt anywhere near him and will he

1491
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:53,160
Speaker 11: take it off? If they won a national championship and

1492
01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:57,520
Speaker 11: you know, give Irvin a little bit of his medicine.

1493
01:06:57,560 --> 01:06:58,040
Speaker 10: How about that?

1494
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:02,200
Speaker 6: All right? That's the National Championship game come up later

1495
01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 6: on tonight. NFL playoffs, the divisional round is in the books.

1496
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:09,000
Speaker 6: Some tremendous games over the weekend in overtime. Denver beat

1497
01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:13,080
Speaker 6: Buffalo thirty three to thirty in the AFC. On Saturday. Yesterday,

1498
01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:15,560
Speaker 6: the Patriots over the Texans twenty eight sixteen.

1499
01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:17,439
Speaker 5: CJ. Stroud did not have a good day.

1500
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:20,560
Speaker 6: The Seahawks beat the forty nine ers yesterday forty one

1501
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:23,560
Speaker 6: to six, and the last game was maybe the best one.

1502
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,680
Speaker 6: The Rams over the Bears twenty to seventeen in overtime.

1503
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:29,760
Speaker 6: Kavid Williams two hundred and fifty seven yards two touchdowns,

1504
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:33,320
Speaker 6: did have three interceptions, but a play for the ages. Mark,

1505
01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 6: how many times have you watched the touch the tying

1506
01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:39,040
Speaker 6: touchdown with less than a minute to go, over and

1507
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 6: over and over last night?

1508
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 12: Probably like sixty times because I got lightheaded when he

1509
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 12: first threw it the first time.

1510
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:45,040
Speaker 4: I screamed.

1511
01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:47,880
Speaker 12: I think I scared the children in the neighborhood, cats

1512
01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:49,840
Speaker 12: and everything like that, because I couldn't believe that he

1513
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:52,880
Speaker 12: just it was a prayer that was answered by cole Comet,

1514
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 12: thank you very much. And then yeah, that was an

1515
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 12: insane throw. I like I said, he ran backwards to

1516
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:01,520
Speaker 12: the forty, threw off his back foot, and somehow still

1517
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:04,160
Speaker 12: made a perfect strike to cole Comet.

1518
01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 4: Mark, I couldn't believe he didn't scramble to the side.

1519
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:08,440
Speaker 4: It was like he was playing a video game and

1520
01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:11,080
Speaker 4: the buttons were broken, like he couldn't go right or left.

1521
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 4: Many times you ever see him just go straight back.

1522
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:16,160
Speaker 12: Not It was like you're playing NFL Blitz and you're

1523
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,400
Speaker 12: just running backwards because you've seen the defenders just line

1524
01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:19,920
Speaker 12: up and jump at you, and you're like, oh, let

1525
01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:21,960
Speaker 12: me just run back this way. And yeah, he just

1526
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:23,640
Speaker 12: heaved it.

1527
01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 4: Forty in the air. I saw the actual like analytic

1528
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,479
Speaker 4: on that just, oh my gosh, that.

1529
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:33,799
Speaker 11: Was a Pacers esque feel to that game, especially considering

1530
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:35,599
Speaker 11: the back to back moments he's had to play off.

1531
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:39,360
Speaker 6: Next week Championship Sunday, it'll be the Denver Broncos taking

1532
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,799
Speaker 6: on the New England Patriots. That one will be in Denver,

1533
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,960
Speaker 6: but the Broncos James playing without bow Nicks, got a

1534
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:47,960
Speaker 6: broken ankle that apparently he suffered on the second to

1535
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:52,360
Speaker 6: last play of overtime and he is out for the

1536
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 6: rest of the postseason.

1537
01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:55,040
Speaker 5: So welcome to Jared Stidham.

1538
01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 11: Yeah, Jared Sidam is one in three as an NFL starter,

1539
01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:03,080
Speaker 11: never started in the playoffs, and it was actually going

1540
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:04,800
Speaker 11: back to watch it, I think and I actually know

1541
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:07,920
Speaker 11: Sean Payton misspoke was a fourth last place people were like,

1542
01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:09,440
Speaker 11: the second last player was Denil.

1543
01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:10,599
Speaker 10: He got hurt on the run.

1544
01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:13,479
Speaker 11: He had a short run that he had right before

1545
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,200
Speaker 11: drawing the pass interference down the field to Marvin Mims

1546
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 11: and that ended up being his season enders. So tough

1547
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,120
Speaker 11: tough break from there, but in a weird, bizarre way.

1548
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:25,160
Speaker 11: Fun fact for you, the Broncos have made multi trips

1549
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:26,600
Speaker 11: to the Super Bowl. They've never made it with the

1550
01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:29,160
Speaker 11: quarterback they drafted. So if you're looking for a silver lining,

1551
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,360
Speaker 11: Bonnicks would have been the first had he gotten through.

1552
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:34,400
Speaker 11: So now Jared Sadam ironically was a Patriots draft pick.

1553
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:38,000
Speaker 12: Rooting And I know this is blasphemy in this town,

1554
01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:40,000
Speaker 12: but aren't you rooting for the Patriots now? Because do

1555
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:42,120
Speaker 12: you really want to watch Jared Stidham in the Super Bowl.

1556
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:44,720
Speaker 10: I don't know, No, I can't go that far.

1557
01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:49,280
Speaker 4: You shouldn't say that Patriots hatreot is real.

1558
01:09:50,320 --> 01:09:52,720
Speaker 11: I think it would actually be hilarious if Jared said

1559
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:53,639
Speaker 11: them actually knock him off.

1560
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:55,960
Speaker 4: He around here, well, and you know, Denver's one play

1561
01:09:56,000 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 4: away from one Sammiel Ellinger, who who reports had declined.

1562
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:04,679
Speaker 4: I mean, here, can you imagine if sam Ellingrad said,

1563
01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:06,439
Speaker 4: you know what, I'm gonna go be the Colts quarterback

1564
01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 4: for those final four games, and then now he's a

1565
01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:10,479
Speaker 4: play away from playing in the Super.

1566
01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:13,960
Speaker 6: Bowl, the NFC championship game the Seahawks will be hosting

1567
01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:16,640
Speaker 6: the Rams. Man that Seahawks defense is looking Leeds in

1568
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:19,040
Speaker 6: the boom right now, and Kevin they were they were

1569
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,719
Speaker 6: nasty against the forty nine ers the other night. So

1570
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:24,519
Speaker 6: what's happening in the NFL. The Pacers will be playing

1571
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:27,839
Speaker 6: again tonight in Philadelphia, coming off that big loss to Detroit,

1572
01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:30,400
Speaker 6: but they didn't play anybody had seven, I think seven

1573
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:34,960
Speaker 6: players missing from that game, and hopefully Pascal Siakamu was

1574
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,040
Speaker 6: getting a little bit of a rest. He'll be back tonight.

1575
01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:40,040
Speaker 6: Do we know if Matherin's gonna be back or Nemhart

1576
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:41,000
Speaker 6: gonna be back for tonight?

1577
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:44,719
Speaker 4: I assume on the Nemhart, I think Mathern's a little

1578
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 4: different story just because he's missed time with that thumb injury.

1579
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:50,160
Speaker 4: There sounds like Joelle Embiid Paul George both questionable. So

1580
01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:52,720
Speaker 4: we'll see how much the Sixers are playing there, guys.

1581
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:55,360
Speaker 4: Obviously they've got some others with Tyrese, Maxi, be j Edge, come,

1582
01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:55,760
Speaker 4: et cetera.

1583
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:59,879
Speaker 6: All Right, college basketball coming up tomorrow, IU plays at Michigan,

1584
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 6: Due at UCLA, Butler will host a Paul over at

1585
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:06,360
Speaker 6: hinklefield House, and Notre Dame plays at unc U.

1586
01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:08,479
Speaker 5: N C got worked over on the West coast this

1587
01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 5: past week.

1588
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:11,960
Speaker 6: Did you see any of that ACC scores, mister Notre Dame?

1589
01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 4: Uh? Yeah, I did see that North Carolina got Yeah,

1590
01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:18,439
Speaker 4: those West coast trips a little bit of a of

1591
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 4: a different animal.

1592
01:11:19,479 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, anything else you guys want to throw in before

1593
01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:23,160
Speaker 6: we had to break here as.

1594
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:25,599
Speaker 11: Martin Luther King day chutthor Marlin Luther King the legend

1595
01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:27,679
Speaker 11: all right, tell you a lot of good things.

1596
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:29,599
Speaker 6: In the world, a lot of great things in the world.

1597
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 6: So we love celebrating that throughout the day today as well.

1598
01:11:32,760 --> 01:11:35,040
Speaker 6: The phone lines and the text line are open two three, nine,

1599
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:38,040
Speaker 6: ten seventy getting ready for Indiana's National championship game tonight.

1600
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,840
Speaker 6: We will entertain all comments on that or the National

1601
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:43,320
Speaker 6: Football League and even basketball it's up next ninety three,

1602
01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:44,160
Speaker 6: five and one seven.

1603
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:47,920
Speaker 5: We certainly hope tonight it's going to.

1604
01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,240
Speaker 6: Be a good good night because a hard rock stadium,

1605
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:54,640
Speaker 6: it will be rockin' tonight. What do you suppose in

1606
01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 6: Miami against the Miami Hurricanes. I know there's all those

1607
01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:00,559
Speaker 6: corporate tickets guys and everything else. That's hard to say,

1608
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,240
Speaker 6: But how many Indiana fans do you think get their

1609
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:07,360
Speaker 6: their fingers on those tickets? And how what do you

1610
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:09,240
Speaker 6: think the percentage looks like tonight?

1611
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,439
Speaker 5: I think it's split fairly close to fifty to fifty.

1612
01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:17,440
Speaker 11: Where are you're at, I'll go sixty forty IU.

1613
01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:23,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I could see sixty seventy even, Yeah, I can

1614
01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:24,280
Speaker 4: definitely see it.

1615
01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:25,720
Speaker 10: They are at home, so I'll figured it.

1616
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:27,799
Speaker 11: Okay, you're going to get the people that maybe wouldn't

1617
01:12:27,800 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 11: have traveled who are going to go to the game.

1618
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:33,519
Speaker 11: But when you're talking about having what the largest living

1619
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 11: alumni base in America, that probably helps you out when

1620
01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 11: it comes to having some fans and some butts in

1621
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 11: the seats.

1622
01:12:40,439 --> 01:12:42,840
Speaker 6: Last time the national championship game was played there, the

1623
01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:47,560
Speaker 6: BCS National Championship in twenty thirteen, they put eighty thousand.

1624
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:49,959
Speaker 5: Folks in there, so you think at least.

1625
01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:52,679
Speaker 6: Forty thousand to fifty thousand IU fans tonight.

1626
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:55,479
Speaker 4: Oh, I thought it was like a sixty five thousand.

1627
01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:57,439
Speaker 6: Well it says sixty seven, and I don't know why

1628
01:12:57,439 --> 01:12:59,080
Speaker 6: they did how they did it, but it did say

1629
01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:03,080
Speaker 6: that the attendance was eighty thousand back of the twenty

1630
01:13:03,200 --> 01:13:07,320
Speaker 6: thirteen BCS National Championship Game, but supposedly capacity is about

1631
01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:09,639
Speaker 6: sixty five, just under sixty five, So I don't know

1632
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 6: how they got that extra fifteen in there, but that's

1633
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:12,880
Speaker 6: what they list on their site.

1634
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,519
Speaker 4: You guys got AYU cruising like they did in the

1635
01:13:15,560 --> 01:13:16,759
Speaker 4: first two games of the playoff.

1636
01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:21,360
Speaker 11: I'm gonna say yes, I have picked them to win

1637
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 11: close the last couple of games, and they just laughed

1638
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 11: in my face and bully teams. And I haven't picked

1639
01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 11: them to win close because I don't believe in them.

1640
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,960
Speaker 11: It's just that at some point I figured, you're gonna

1641
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:38,120
Speaker 11: come down to earth, You're not gonna play perfect, You're

1642
01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:39,040
Speaker 11: gonna have the mistake.

1643
01:13:39,160 --> 01:13:41,519
Speaker 10: But maybe I should just recognize this.

1644
01:13:41,560 --> 01:13:44,840
Speaker 11: It's a juggernaut, and juggernauts often do not have closed

1645
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:48,879
Speaker 11: games or games where they wilt or they make those mistakes.

1646
01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:51,439
Speaker 11: And I think what convinces me the most, Kevin is

1647
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 11: that they're a clean team.

1648
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:55,879
Speaker 10: They play clean football. It's not very volatile.

1649
01:13:55,920 --> 01:13:57,840
Speaker 11: So if they don't make a mistake as far as

1650
01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:01,479
Speaker 11: the turnover or a call offt penalty, it's hard for

1651
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:04,040
Speaker 11: me not to see them winning by double digits.

1652
01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:05,719
Speaker 10: Winning by double digits, yeah.

1653
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,320
Speaker 6: I feel like this is going to be a closer

1654
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:11,120
Speaker 6: game in the first half, and I think Indiana starts

1655
01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:14,559
Speaker 6: to wear them down as it goes along, and so

1656
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:17,360
Speaker 6: I could see a three six point difference in the

1657
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:19,759
Speaker 6: first half. But I do think by the fourth quarter,

1658
01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:22,080
Speaker 6: Indiana starts rolling a lot like they did in that

1659
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:24,559
Speaker 6: Oregon game on the road against Oregon, so I'm along

1660
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:25,120
Speaker 6: those lines.

1661
01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:26,840
Speaker 4: Change. Is kind of funny that you bring that up,

1662
01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:28,680
Speaker 4: because I think I'm almost on the reverse of it.

1663
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:33,720
Speaker 4: I thought that Indiana would cruise Bama Oregon. And I

1664
01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:35,800
Speaker 4: don't know if it's just because we've talked about this

1665
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:38,760
Speaker 4: game endless sleep for the last ten days, and like

1666
01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:42,160
Speaker 4: it's like, damn, we're over talking it, Like you almost

1667
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,600
Speaker 4: are talking your way into something you don't totally believe in.

1668
01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:47,120
Speaker 4: There is a part of me that feels that, but

1669
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,360
Speaker 4: I don't know. I just tonight just feels a little

1670
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:56,200
Speaker 4: different to me. And you know, again, I'm not probably

1671
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:58,639
Speaker 4: sitting here thinking Miami's going to win the game, I guess,

1672
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 4: just to be clear on it. But you know, if

1673
01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:02,439
Speaker 4: I had to go one way or the other on

1674
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 4: the line, I guess maybe I would take Miami with

1675
01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:08,840
Speaker 4: those points, which again is contradicting what I thought. I

1676
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:11,320
Speaker 4: thought they'd roll Alabama. I thought they'd you know, comfortably

1677
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:13,960
Speaker 4: beat Oregon, not of course to the level of thirty

1678
01:15:13,960 --> 01:15:17,760
Speaker 4: five and whatever it was, thirty four points. But I

1679
01:15:17,800 --> 01:15:20,639
Speaker 4: just think Miami is a different test. I do. And

1680
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:23,920
Speaker 4: you know, there's a reason why they won at Texas

1681
01:15:23,960 --> 01:15:25,920
Speaker 4: A and M. There's a reason why they controlled that

1682
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:29,080
Speaker 4: Ohio State game for as long as they did here,

1683
01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:31,840
Speaker 4: And yeah, I'm just ready.

1684
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,000
Speaker 6: I wonder how many people will be in that stadium

1685
01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:38,479
Speaker 6: tonight that were there, Kevin back in two thousand and

1686
01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:42,360
Speaker 6: seven when the Colts beat the Chicago Bears. How cool

1687
01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 6: would it have been to say, Hey, I've got tickets

1688
01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:45,799
Speaker 6: to both of those football games.

1689
01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:48,000
Speaker 4: This here from sea Routes at hard Rock had a

1690
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:52,080
Speaker 4: remodel after the y I guess twenty thirteen, was that

1691
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:55,000
Speaker 4: what you said? Josh? Fifteen fifteen national title which.

1692
01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:56,960
Speaker 6: Reacha twenty thirteen national tie. I think they remaintled in

1693
01:15:56,960 --> 01:15:57,679
Speaker 6: twenty fifteen.

1694
01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:02,640
Speaker 4: That reduce some of the of the capacity to it.

1695
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:05,080
Speaker 4: So Dana, they do it again too, because Prince tore

1696
01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:07,080
Speaker 4: the house down. So then there you go, do it?

1697
01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 6: There you go.

1698
01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 5: You remember that day well too, don't you?

1699
01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 6: Mark?

1700
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:14,240
Speaker 4: That was an incredible day. Do you think if best

1701
01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:19,920
Speaker 4: halftime show ever was Indiana were to lose. Do you

1702
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:24,720
Speaker 4: think tomorrow is like kind of like how Mark feels today?

1703
01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:28,360
Speaker 12: Hey, no, No, I think it's different because you got

1704
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:32,759
Speaker 12: to the mountaintop and then you failed to your point.

1705
01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:35,839
Speaker 4: Earlier lost in the Super Bowl, you would feel differently.

1706
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:36,920
Speaker 15: I think.

1707
01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:40,080
Speaker 12: I think it's different circumstances because again, like I don't know,

1708
01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:42,880
Speaker 12: You're college football is so different than the NFL.

1709
01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:45,760
Speaker 4: I feel like, where's the Bears kind of had a

1710
01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:47,040
Speaker 4: magical run and everything like that.

1711
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 12: So I'm like, Okay, like, we'll see how far this

1712
01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:51,200
Speaker 12: takes us this year, but there's obviously improvements that can

1713
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:51,639
Speaker 12: be made.

1714
01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:52,360
Speaker 5: This year.

1715
01:16:52,400 --> 01:16:54,639
Speaker 12: You were hands about like you were far and away

1716
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:58,599
Speaker 12: the better team throughout the entire college football playoffs and everything.

1717
01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:02,720
Speaker 12: So I I just think that's a lot of disappointment

1718
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:04,160
Speaker 12: if you come up short, especially when you're such a

1719
01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:05,320
Speaker 12: heavy favorite heading into it.

1720
01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:09,439
Speaker 11: Now, Yeah, I would say you wouldn't look at the

1721
01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:13,920
Speaker 11: season as a disappointment, but losing this game would be

1722
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 11: very disappointing because again, this isn't kind of like marks

1723
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:22,360
Speaker 11: Bears where they were going on like the Cinderella run

1724
01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:24,160
Speaker 11: and to give it a local tie, it was like

1725
01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:24,800
Speaker 11: the Pacers.

1726
01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:25,600
Speaker 10: Like the Pacers.

1727
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:29,799
Speaker 11: I think part of the devastation, aside from the Halliburton injury,

1728
01:17:29,920 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 11: is knowing that they went on a run that you

1729
01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 11: probably will never be able to replicate with so many

1730
01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:38,000
Speaker 11: game winners and crazy comebacks that just probably will never

1731
01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:42,599
Speaker 11: happen again in the sport, and one postseason run. Whereas

1732
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:46,880
Speaker 11: with I you you've been dominant pretty much all year.

1733
01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,400
Speaker 11: You have some close calls because all teams do, but

1734
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:52,320
Speaker 11: not in the playoffs. This is who you've been. You've

1735
01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:54,880
Speaker 11: been far and away the better team. So to get

1736
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 11: to this moment and lose this game, that would be

1737
01:17:57,520 --> 01:17:59,400
Speaker 11: a hard pital swallow and no one should look at

1738
01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:01,160
Speaker 11: them and say you're a failure. But I definitely think

1739
01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 11: there will be a lot of emotions of man, we

1740
01:18:04,520 --> 01:18:07,920
Speaker 11: were right there and just knowing that you never won

1741
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:08,439
Speaker 11: it before.

1742
01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:09,880
Speaker 10: So that's part of it too.

1743
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:12,960
Speaker 6: Kevin vvingk too. When you look at this team, it's

1744
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:15,640
Speaker 6: a complete football team. Like where do you say? And

1745
01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:18,559
Speaker 6: usually when teams are ascending like Mark was talking about,

1746
01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:22,960
Speaker 6: or team that has a magical run, there's some flaw

1747
01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 6: that you were able to overcome or get past. What's

1748
01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 6: the fall? What are the warts on this Indiana team?

1749
01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:31,839
Speaker 4: Hardly any? Yeah, I mean probably none is the easiest

1750
01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:33,080
Speaker 4: way to put it. You know, I think if you

1751
01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:35,320
Speaker 4: were to ask Kurt Signetti, he might nitpick and say

1752
01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:39,559
Speaker 4: at times there's been a coverage buster two. But still

1753
01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 4: I mean for a college football team, because usually it

1754
01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:46,599
Speaker 4: is just you know, how disciplined or undisciplined. I guess

1755
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:49,639
Speaker 4: are you You know I've said it after the Peach Bowl.

1756
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 4: I think the greatest compliments Indiana, which I don't know

1757
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:54,599
Speaker 4: if it's like the sexiest compliment, but I think they

1758
01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:58,640
Speaker 4: have a professional level of discipline. You know, for the

1759
01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:03,040
Speaker 4: most part, when you watch NFL games, it's not a

1760
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:07,479
Speaker 4: game of stupidity that can lead to like, you know,

1761
01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 4: yes we had some you know whatever post whistle penalties,

1762
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:12,000
Speaker 4: but like you didn't have that many. If you watch

1763
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:14,080
Speaker 4: any of those four games, it's not like, yeah, you're

1764
01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:15,840
Speaker 4: sure you have a rough in the passer here there.

1765
01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:18,519
Speaker 4: But you know, for the most part, you know, the

1766
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:21,160
Speaker 4: big flags are like competitive plays down the field, and

1767
01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,599
Speaker 4: you know that's what gets whistled there. You know, Mark's

1768
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,559
Speaker 4: you know, Mark's not sitting here being like, hey, the

1769
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:29,879
Speaker 4: Bear's loss due to penalties, you know, necessarily Like whereas

1770
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,320
Speaker 4: in college, if you look at it, Miami, if they

1771
01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:35,160
Speaker 4: would have lost that Old Miss game, you know, if whatever,

1772
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:37,840
Speaker 4: Carson Beck doesn't scramble there you would say that was

1773
01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:40,040
Speaker 4: Miami was so stupid in that game. They had ten

1774
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 4: penalties in that game, Like they were undisciplined, galore, pre stamp,

1775
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:46,160
Speaker 4: post snap, all that stuff. So again, that's to me

1776
01:19:46,320 --> 01:19:48,599
Speaker 4: is what you know. I'll continue to say Indiana's greatest

1777
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:53,360
Speaker 4: strength is Miami's biggest weakness. Yeah, in just the discipline

1778
01:19:53,400 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 4: for Indiana, the lack thereof Now in a national championship setting,

1779
01:19:57,479 --> 01:19:59,599
Speaker 4: what happens, you know, is it?

1780
01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 15: You know it?

1781
01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:02,719
Speaker 4: To James's point, is there a little pressure? Does Indiana

1782
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:05,919
Speaker 4: feel pressure for the first time, because like even before

1783
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:08,759
Speaker 4: all this it didn't seem like like it just seems

1784
01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:11,920
Speaker 4: like the pressures now much more on Indiana for the

1785
01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:15,120
Speaker 4: first time maybe in these two years. And Kurtzignettia, I

1786
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:16,679
Speaker 4: think I was part of what he was saying yesterday,

1787
01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:19,000
Speaker 4: you know when he makes the analogy of the cookies

1788
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:21,400
Speaker 4: in the milk, you know, going to war. He brought

1789
01:20:21,439 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 4: up the I don't know if you guys saw like

1790
01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:27,240
Speaker 4: the Holly Rowe clip exiting practice, Like Holly row ESPN

1791
01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:29,800
Speaker 4: sideline reporter mentioned how she was blown away by the

1792
01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:31,720
Speaker 4: Indiana practice, their final practice of the year, and all

1793
01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:35,080
Speaker 4: these guys are embracing after practice and you know whatever

1794
01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:38,200
Speaker 4: scene that she hasn't seen in quite a while. Kurtzignetti

1795
01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:41,680
Speaker 4: found the need to bring that up yesterday as like

1796
01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:46,479
Speaker 4: rat poison like again, I mean like Signetti's starting to

1797
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:48,720
Speaker 4: play a little bit more of that card of like

1798
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:51,839
Speaker 4: I need to be the bad cop here, which is

1799
01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:55,000
Speaker 4: such a wild dynamic to this story. Here is like

1800
01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:58,400
Speaker 4: the story of all unknowns, a little bit Cinderella E

1801
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:02,680
Speaker 4: the losingess pro Graham college football history now playing for

1802
01:21:02,680 --> 01:21:05,320
Speaker 4: a national title. And not only are they playing there,

1803
01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:09,519
Speaker 4: but this is not Butler in the national championship game

1804
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,639
Speaker 4: in twenty ten or twenty eleven, where you'ld still say

1805
01:21:11,640 --> 01:21:15,120
Speaker 4: they were the underdog against Duker, You right, exactly, No, no, no,

1806
01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:17,840
Speaker 4: they are like the outright favorite and we would call

1807
01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:20,160
Speaker 4: it one of the bigger upsets in national championship history

1808
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:22,639
Speaker 4: if Miami were to beat them, which is just another

1809
01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:24,439
Speaker 4: like twist to all of it.

1810
01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:26,519
Speaker 10: Say that since it's again, are we in real life

1811
01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:27,080
Speaker 10: right now?

1812
01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:27,800
Speaker 6: Seriously?

1813
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:29,439
Speaker 4: I mean like if you look at it from a

1814
01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:32,160
Speaker 4: you know, a touchdown favorite, like ask, imagine telling some

1815
01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:35,400
Speaker 4: of these Miami alum this twenty years ago.

1816
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,320
Speaker 11: Yeah, you'd be going into a national championship game as

1817
01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:41,200
Speaker 11: underdog is against Indiana.

1818
01:21:40,360 --> 01:21:42,280
Speaker 4: Which you guys watch. I mean, you guys watched Signetti

1819
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,680
Speaker 4: and Crysta Ball yesterday for those that missed it. They

1820
01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:46,720
Speaker 4: are side by side in the final press conference. That's

1821
01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:50,720
Speaker 4: how the final media session works. Hearing Kurt Signetti have

1822
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:53,680
Speaker 4: to try and talk his team down a little bit

1823
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:58,120
Speaker 4: versus Mario Cristabal getting questions asked about being a significant

1824
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:02,479
Speaker 4: underdog was another, just again fascinating dynamic to tonight.

1825
01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:05,000
Speaker 11: I also think that the conversation you have publicly is

1826
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:09,280
Speaker 11: probably different. It's probably different privately because I could totally see,

1827
01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 11: you know, cameras aren't around, MIC's aren't around, or perhaps

1828
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:14,600
Speaker 11: they are for when you win and you get to

1829
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:16,800
Speaker 11: put that out there. But point being, we don't see

1830
01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:20,280
Speaker 11: it before the game. But I can't imagine that he's

1831
01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 11: telling his team anything other than we're gonna go out

1832
01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:25,639
Speaker 11: there and kick them in the you know what, because

1833
01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:27,719
Speaker 11: they've done it to every team so far this season,

1834
01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:30,680
Speaker 11: especially in the playoffs. So yeah, you can play it

1835
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:32,519
Speaker 11: up to us, Oh we're not that great and we

1836
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:34,719
Speaker 11: don't want to listen to you all, but you better

1837
01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:36,519
Speaker 11: believe he's going in the locker room telling those guys

1838
01:22:36,560 --> 01:22:39,040
Speaker 11: we are better than them and we're gonna beat them

1839
01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 11: down on every single play until we show the world that.

1840
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:42,680
Speaker 10: So I'm excited for it.

1841
01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:45,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm just curious last thing before we move on.

1842
01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:49,679
Speaker 6: Do you guys see more a game like the one

1843
01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:53,719
Speaker 6: against Ohio State at Logos Oil Stadium or more against

1844
01:22:53,760 --> 01:22:56,280
Speaker 6: Alabama where it's like Katie bar the door, let's go.

1845
01:22:58,680 --> 01:22:58,880
Speaker 14: Oh?

1846
01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:01,800
Speaker 4: I mean, I I guess I just kind of said

1847
01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:02,200
Speaker 4: it there, No.

1848
01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:05,120
Speaker 6: He did, But I'm just can you foresee with we

1849
01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:07,760
Speaker 6: talked about that line play that Miami has this year,

1850
01:23:07,960 --> 01:23:10,000
Speaker 6: could it be just one of those slug it out games?

1851
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:11,800
Speaker 10: Yeah?

1852
01:23:11,840 --> 01:23:13,960
Speaker 4: I mean as far as the game style, I mean,

1853
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:16,559
Speaker 4: I do think both teams want to certainly establish their

1854
01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:18,920
Speaker 4: own respective run games. And Sean McDonough said it to

1855
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 4: us forty five minutes ago. You know, these are probably,

1856
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:24,240
Speaker 4: if not two of the better combined trench play units

1857
01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:27,200
Speaker 4: in all of college football. As far as total points

1858
01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:29,640
Speaker 4: is concerned, I don't know. I probably a little bit

1859
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:31,160
Speaker 4: more on the what is it forty seven and a

1860
01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:33,360
Speaker 4: half mark? Is that right? I'm probably a little bit

1861
01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:35,280
Speaker 4: more under if you maybe pick that.

1862
01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:37,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, I hear everything you're saying. I just

1863
01:23:37,400 --> 01:23:38,480
Speaker 5: throughout that possibility.

1864
01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 6: That's the one kind of game that worries me just

1865
01:23:40,479 --> 01:23:43,160
Speaker 6: a little bit, where it's just slugfest and every single

1866
01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:45,960
Speaker 6: possession matters right up till the very end. Got Goats

1867
01:23:45,960 --> 01:23:47,280
Speaker 6: of the week coming up in just a moment here

1868
01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:49,080
Speaker 6: as we continue in ninety three five and one of seven,

1869
01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:53,960
Speaker 6: five of the fan COOLi is the goat.

1870
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:56,599
Speaker 4: I told you all that I was the greatest of

1871
01:23:56,640 --> 01:23:57,200
Speaker 4: all time.

1872
01:23:57,560 --> 01:23:59,320
Speaker 6: Organ here's Michael at the fileline.

1873
01:23:59,360 --> 01:23:59,920
Speaker 8: I shot at it.

1874
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 16: Oh God, or goat this guy sucks of the week.

1875
01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:24,120
Speaker 6: It's that time, guys, the best, the worst, and the

1876
01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:26,519
Speaker 6: world of sports can be a little bit wacky at times.

1877
01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:30,080
Speaker 6: I will start with you, James Boyd. Who is your

1878
01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:33,559
Speaker 6: bad goat of the week? Who you've got something in

1879
01:24:33,600 --> 01:24:34,280
Speaker 6: for this week?

1880
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,639
Speaker 11: Josh Allen, I'm not letting you off the hook, brother,

1881
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 11: I understand the tears. I'm not saying it's all your fault,

1882
01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:44,240
Speaker 11: but four turnovers, worst play performance of your life, and

1883
01:24:44,439 --> 01:24:47,920
Speaker 11: the Brandon Cooks interception in overtime or whatever, that is

1884
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 11: probably just like the worst luck ever. I thought it

1885
01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:53,400
Speaker 11: was a correct call, but you can't draw that play

1886
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:54,680
Speaker 11: up if you wanted to.

1887
01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:55,719
Speaker 10: That's just a bad break.

1888
01:24:55,800 --> 01:25:01,320
Speaker 11: But the fumble before halftime Looney tunes as so that

1889
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:03,120
Speaker 11: ended up being a three point difference in a three

1890
01:25:03,120 --> 01:25:05,640
Speaker 11: point loss. So, Josh Allen, my bag go to the

1891
01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:07,040
Speaker 11: week You got a chance to get it done and

1892
01:25:07,080 --> 01:25:09,160
Speaker 11: you Didn'tight, Kevin Bowen.

1893
01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:12,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, My awful goat of the weekend is the head

1894
01:25:12,560 --> 01:25:18,120
Speaker 4: basketball coach of the Georgetown Hoyas Ed Cooley, who post game,

1895
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:21,800
Speaker 4: I do remember this plays the car that you occasionally

1896
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 4: see played, not very often, but you occasionally see play now.

1897
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:28,960
Speaker 4: Ed Cooley, Boys, you know how much he makes annually?

1898
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:33,760
Speaker 6: Ed probably five and a half six million dollars year, making.

1899
01:25:33,200 --> 01:25:37,280
Speaker 4: Six million annually. He echoed this statement post game, there's

1900
01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:40,920
Speaker 4: a lot worse happening than Georgetown losing a basketball game

1901
01:25:41,080 --> 01:25:43,800
Speaker 4: around the world, around our city, around our community. You

1902
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 4: know what we are. We're blessed. We're blessed to be

1903
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:49,120
Speaker 4: nine to nine. We're blessed to be one and six

1904
01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:51,920
Speaker 4: in the league. It could be a lot worse. There's

1905
01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:56,360
Speaker 4: nothing I hate more than when you have sports figures

1906
01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:58,919
Speaker 4: like this try to live in the bubble of comparing

1907
01:25:58,960 --> 01:26:02,120
Speaker 4: what they're doing to the world countries that are out there.

1908
01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:06,800
Speaker 4: We get it, obviously, we realize that there are a

1909
01:26:06,880 --> 01:26:09,120
Speaker 4: lot of things going on in the world. But when

1910
01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:11,400
Speaker 4: we are in a press conference setting, or we are

1911
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,800
Speaker 4: in the sports setting, we're living in that bubble. We're

1912
01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:18,760
Speaker 4: not living in the bubble of you know, hunger and

1913
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:21,960
Speaker 4: starvation and all of that. No, no, no, we're in

1914
01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:23,720
Speaker 4: the sports world. At Cooley, do not try to play

1915
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:25,600
Speaker 4: that card on me that you are blessed to be

1916
01:26:25,680 --> 01:26:27,000
Speaker 4: nine to nine and we're blessed to be one and

1917
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:28,800
Speaker 4: six in the league and try to play that card.

1918
01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:32,240
Speaker 4: I thought it was absolutely pathetic by Ed Cooley postking I'd.

1919
01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:33,479
Speaker 10: Been fired on the spot for that.

1920
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:37,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought about Josh Allen, I thought about CJ.

1921
01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:39,639
Speaker 5: Stroud for on the field performance.

1922
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:41,960
Speaker 6: I'm going to go with the officials in the Denver

1923
01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:43,719
Speaker 6: Buffalo game, not because of the play.

1924
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:44,400
Speaker 5: That you talked about.

1925
01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:46,960
Speaker 6: It's the one that nobody's talking about today and there's

1926
01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:51,200
Speaker 6: clear visual and photographic evidence of it. At the beginning

1927
01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:54,439
Speaker 6: of that drive where you had the contested catch, the

1928
01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 6: controversial call, interception, reception, all those kinds of things. What

1929
01:26:58,120 --> 01:27:01,240
Speaker 6: to catch back at the beginning of that in the

1930
01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:05,120
Speaker 6: end zone, Buffalo had the ball, They're backed up, Josh

1931
01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:08,960
Speaker 6: Allen is in the end zone looking for a man downfield,

1932
01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:12,559
Speaker 6: and there is a clear and obvious hold to his

1933
01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:15,840
Speaker 6: right that should have been called. It would have been

1934
01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:18,720
Speaker 6: a safety, the game would have been over, and more importantly,

1935
01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:22,599
Speaker 6: bo Nix would still be the quarterback for the Denver Broncos.

1936
01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:26,240
Speaker 6: That's my problem with the with the officials his past weekend.

1937
01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:29,040
Speaker 5: All right, move on to the good stuff.

1938
01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:31,839
Speaker 4: My lower over. Oh yes, c J. Stroud was dreadful.

1939
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:34,879
Speaker 12: Five interceptions in going to pick six and five fummals,

1940
01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:36,360
Speaker 12: tear raugh ball.

1941
01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:37,839
Speaker 5: There you go. Terrible.

1942
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:40,439
Speaker 10: He was god awful.

1943
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:44,240
Speaker 4: One play from that Bill's Broncos game. I hated the Bills,

1944
01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:45,840
Speaker 4: and it might have been a Josh Allen check, to

1945
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:48,760
Speaker 4: be honest with you, throwing the screen on like the

1946
01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:51,639
Speaker 4: third and eight before they ended up kicking the field

1947
01:27:51,680 --> 01:27:55,880
Speaker 4: goal there late in regulation that I thought was a

1948
01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:58,439
Speaker 4: moment where if the Bills score a touchdown and Romo

1949
01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:00,960
Speaker 4: I think and Nance debated this a little. You could

1950
01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 4: have gone for two there and gotten it to nine

1951
01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:05,439
Speaker 4: and pretty much end of the game. Even if you

1952
01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:07,800
Speaker 4: kick the extra point, you're still up eight there. Yeah,

1953
01:28:07,880 --> 01:28:09,960
Speaker 4: they treated that, and maybe it was Josh Allen checkin.

1954
01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:12,040
Speaker 4: They treated that like I was Philip Rivers off the couch,

1955
01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:15,000
Speaker 4: go for the jugglar. I mean, you have Josh freaking Allen.

1956
01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:16,559
Speaker 4: I give you a lot of turnovers in the game,

1957
01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:19,000
Speaker 4: but man, you gotta trust your dude in that setting

1958
01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:22,120
Speaker 4: to try and win it, not rely on your defense.

1959
01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:23,639
Speaker 4: And it bit him in the end.

1960
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:27,759
Speaker 6: All right, let's go to the great goats of the week.

1961
01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:31,080
Speaker 5: Who gets all the flowers? James Boyd, I'll.

1962
01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:32,920
Speaker 10: Go with bow Knicks. I feel sorry for the guy.

1963
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:35,439
Speaker 11: I thought that he played a really good game only

1964
01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:37,960
Speaker 11: in his what second year, takes his team to the

1965
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:42,080
Speaker 11: AFC Championship game and can no longer compete in that atmosphere.

1966
01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:45,120
Speaker 11: But three touchdowns won interception. I thought that he made

1967
01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:48,559
Speaker 11: some really big time throws there late to give his

1968
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:50,800
Speaker 11: team a chance. And when you're going totto with Josh

1969
01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 11: Allen and you don't blink, you earn my respect.

1970
01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:57,880
Speaker 4: My great goat was the emotion in the Buffalo locker room.

1971
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:00,439
Speaker 4: You know, I think times in sports we sit here

1972
01:29:00,479 --> 01:29:03,320
Speaker 4: and we're like special professional sports. You know, how much

1973
01:29:03,360 --> 01:29:06,000
Speaker 4: is the care factor? What is it? And you see

1974
01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:07,840
Speaker 4: the tears in the emotion, not just from Josh Allen.

1975
01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:10,519
Speaker 4: There are a lot of guys in that locker room.

1976
01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:12,840
Speaker 4: I thought that was a cool scene, and it's a

1977
01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:14,960
Speaker 4: reminder that, you know sports, it's part of why we

1978
01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:16,960
Speaker 4: love sports, or at least why I love sports. I'll speak

1979
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:20,160
Speaker 4: for myself, is when you see emotion like that, I mean,

1980
01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:22,719
Speaker 4: we're talking about millions and millions of Josh Allen's living,

1981
01:29:22,800 --> 01:29:24,240
Speaker 4: living a pretty good life. You know how much money

1982
01:29:24,280 --> 01:29:28,360
Speaker 4: Josh Allen's got. Have you seen missus Allen? Josh Allen's living,

1983
01:29:28,479 --> 01:29:31,040
Speaker 4: living a pretty good life, and yet to see his emotion,

1984
01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,559
Speaker 4: to see Dion Dawkins emotion, to see Brandon Cook's emotion.

1985
01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:35,679
Speaker 4: I thought that was really cool.

1986
01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:37,600
Speaker 6: It's one of things I love about the postseason. To

1987
01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:41,160
Speaker 6: piggyback on what you're talking about, is it's the one. Yes,

1988
01:29:41,200 --> 01:29:43,080
Speaker 6: the money is important to these guys, but this is

1989
01:29:43,120 --> 01:29:45,599
Speaker 6: the time of year, whether it's NBA, whether it's the NFL.

1990
01:29:45,680 --> 01:29:47,720
Speaker 6: You saw it with the Pacers last year, it's really

1991
01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:48,920
Speaker 6: about winning and losing.

1992
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,080
Speaker 4: Sure, yeah, Pacers Game seven was similar. I get that

1993
01:29:51,120 --> 01:29:53,280
Speaker 4: was probably a little bit more Haliburn injury related, but

1994
01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:55,360
Speaker 4: you know, I think that had a lot of the

1995
01:29:55,360 --> 01:29:56,040
Speaker 4: same elements.

1996
01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:58,360
Speaker 6: All right, I'm gonna go I was. I was fired

1997
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:00,479
Speaker 6: up for the Butler win. They needed that win.

1998
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:01,679
Speaker 5: They got it.

1999
01:30:01,680 --> 01:30:04,080
Speaker 6: It was on the road. It was against Seaton Hall

2000
01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:07,080
Speaker 6: Finley Bisjack is my go to the week. Twenty five points,

2001
01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,599
Speaker 6: four of seven from three point range and just seemed

2002
01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:12,040
Speaker 6: to make a plays, as did many of the Butler

2003
01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:14,400
Speaker 6: He's kind of representative of the entire team. But I

2004
01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:17,559
Speaker 6: thought it was nice to see Butler with that road

2005
01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:21,240
Speaker 6: win and their best player playing big at his best times.

2006
01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:23,240
Speaker 5: That was my go to the week. Over the weekend,

2007
01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:24,600
Speaker 5: it was I enjoyed.

2008
01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:27,880
Speaker 12: That Mark Seattle defense played out of their minds from

2009
01:30:27,880 --> 01:30:30,759
Speaker 12: the start of the game. DeMarcus Lawrence and Letter Williams

2010
01:30:30,760 --> 01:30:34,479
Speaker 12: in particular, My god, they destroyed the forty nine ers.

2011
01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:37,799
Speaker 5: That was a train wreck in a lot of ways.

2012
01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:39,880
Speaker 6: Man, if you're if you're on the wrong end of

2013
01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:42,479
Speaker 6: that Sattle score, no question about that.

2014
01:30:42,680 --> 01:30:44,000
Speaker 5: Those are your goats of the week.

2015
01:30:44,040 --> 01:30:46,120
Speaker 6: Coming up at a moment we check in with the

2016
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:50,120

2022
01:31:07,640 --> 01:31:10,960

2024
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,400
Speaker 6: it live on WIBC on the radio with Don Fisher

2025
01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:20,160
Speaker 6: and the crew there and Buck and John Herrick, and

2026
01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:23,080
Speaker 6: of course you can watch it on TV and we

2027
01:31:23,200 --> 01:31:24,840
Speaker 6: learned this morning you can sync it up with Don

2028
01:31:24,880 --> 01:31:25,960
Speaker 6: Fisher on TV tonight.

2029
01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:26,200
Speaker 14: Yeah.

2030
01:31:26,240 --> 01:31:28,840
Speaker 4: So ESPN does the alternate broadcast for a lot of

2031
01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:33,680
Speaker 4: their championships, and so for tonight you can via the

2032
01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:37,360
Speaker 4: ESPN app or they're streaming channels. They will have I

2033
01:31:37,439 --> 01:31:40,000
Speaker 4: believe it's called hometown radio, so you'll have a channel

2034
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:43,719
Speaker 4: where Miami's radio is synced up to the TV camera

2035
01:31:43,840 --> 01:31:46,559
Speaker 4: view and the IU radio with the legend that is

2036
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:49,640
Speaker 4: Don Fisher. So definitely check that out. I know a

2037
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:51,200
Speaker 4: lot of people out there like to do that or

2038
01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:53,280
Speaker 4: try to do that manually. It can be a little difficult,

2039
01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:56,360
Speaker 4: but that is a part of your viewing option coming

2040
01:31:56,439 --> 01:32:00,400
Speaker 4: up tonight. Do we still have students camped out outside

2041
01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:04,720
Speaker 4: of these respective establishments in Bloomington. Can you imagine what

2042
01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 4: do you mean?

2043
01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:05,519
Speaker 10: Imagine?

2044
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:08,559
Speaker 11: Get on the road, get to Bloomington, give us a

2045
01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:10,120
Speaker 11: report from the ground there, professionals.

2046
01:32:10,120 --> 01:32:12,519
Speaker 4: How does that work? So you are camped out and

2047
01:32:12,560 --> 01:32:14,559
Speaker 4: then it opens up at what eleven am?

2048
01:32:14,600 --> 01:32:15,000
Speaker 10: I would think?

2049
01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:18,760
Speaker 4: So yeah, and then you're are you there or are you?

2050
01:32:18,840 --> 01:32:20,760
Speaker 10: I think you got to rot with some friends, right, yeah?

2051
01:32:20,800 --> 01:32:24,040
Speaker 4: Okay, like you that let you do that, You allow shifts,

2052
01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:27,960
Speaker 4: you're allowed to do jacket jackets on seats? Oh boy, No,

2053
01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:28,240
Speaker 4: I don't know.

2054
01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:30,439
Speaker 11: I don't think it's jackets on seats. I think it's

2055
01:32:30,640 --> 01:32:31,599
Speaker 11: all you're saying.

2056
01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:33,160
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I don't know.

2057
01:32:33,479 --> 01:32:37,920
Speaker 11: Do you you rotate your friend groove? You got six

2058
01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:39,880
Speaker 11: that are there, and then the six rotate out. But

2059
01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:41,879
Speaker 11: even then, like you said, you need the seats, everyone's

2060
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:45,479
Speaker 11: gonna come watch the game. So I don't know, you're

2061
01:32:45,520 --> 01:32:47,800
Speaker 11: trying to save a seat at Kilroy's or something like that.

2062
01:32:47,960 --> 01:32:51,639
Speaker 11: Seems insane to me, but I guess there's worse decisions

2063
01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:52,559
Speaker 11: you can make it in college.

2064
01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:55,120
Speaker 4: So this is a nice where you do not park

2065
01:32:55,160 --> 01:32:58,320
Speaker 4: your car anywhere near Kirkwood or else you will have

2066
01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:02,439
Speaker 4: students on those cars and just where you grease the

2067
01:33:02,479 --> 01:33:03,960
Speaker 4: ice bowl, you worry people?

2068
01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:07,120
Speaker 6: Do you worry about the safety of those cars tonight?

2069
01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:07,320
Speaker 13: Wow?

2070
01:33:07,439 --> 01:33:09,360
Speaker 4: Someone that used to live on Kirkwood and I didn't

2071
01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:11,280
Speaker 4: have to experience it too much in Indiana, but I

2072
01:33:11,320 --> 01:33:13,639
Speaker 4: was told when I lived there that, hey, if NIAN

2073
01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:16,479
Speaker 4: never makes a national championship, you park your car very

2074
01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:17,759
Speaker 4: very far away from CHRISTI.

2075
01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:20,400
Speaker 11: Yeah, I will say this, Like, boy, I just don't

2076
01:33:20,400 --> 01:33:23,599
Speaker 11: want to see the inevitable stupid injury on the news.

2077
01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:26,840
Speaker 11: I'm not saying anything like seriously bad it's gonna happen

2078
01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:28,400
Speaker 11: to you, nothing like that, but like, I don't want

2079
01:33:28,439 --> 01:33:30,519
Speaker 11: to see anybody like licking up a frozen pole.

2080
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:31,559
Speaker 10: Like that's just I.

2081
01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:33,800
Speaker 6: Always wonder too when you see on college campus is

2082
01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:35,120
Speaker 6: like the inevitable burning of.

2083
01:33:35,080 --> 01:33:36,360
Speaker 5: The couch or the sofa.

2084
01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:38,840
Speaker 6: Right, How often, though, do you stop to think about

2085
01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:42,840
Speaker 6: It's a sofa in the middle of somebody's dorm room.

2086
01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:46,559
Speaker 6: Maybe it should be burned at some point in time, right.

2087
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:50,599
Speaker 4: I would agree on that there were some nasty looking

2088
01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:52,960
Speaker 4: couches when I was in college. The stains in that

2089
01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:54,960
Speaker 4: college sofa deserve to be burnt.

2090
01:33:55,920 --> 01:33:57,240
Speaker 6: One of the things that was fun. We were doing

2091
01:33:57,280 --> 01:33:58,880
Speaker 6: the Goats of the Week a minute ago. One of

2092
01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:00,080
Speaker 6: the that I was going back.

2093
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:00,439
Speaker 5: And fourth on.

2094
01:34:00,479 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 6: I decided Finley, Bizjack and Butler for their win over

2095
01:34:04,360 --> 01:34:07,080
Speaker 6: the weekend. But I thought about Fernando Mendoza because he

2096
01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:09,200
Speaker 6: was meeting with the media, just like Churt Signette was,

2097
01:34:09,240 --> 01:34:11,240
Speaker 6: and you know, being the Heisman Trophy winner, you have

2098
01:34:11,320 --> 01:34:15,280
Speaker 6: those obligations. But he gave the most Fernando Mendoza answer

2099
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:18,559
Speaker 6: to a question that you're ever going to find. And

2100
01:34:18,600 --> 01:34:21,559
Speaker 6: I loved every single second of it. And it's he

2101
01:34:21,720 --> 01:34:26,479
Speaker 6: is wonderfully himself at all times, no matter who he's

2102
01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:29,479
Speaker 6: talking to or what he's talking about. And I just

2103
01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:35,880
Speaker 6: want to give you some unfiltered Fernando Mendoza on you know,

2104
01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:40,479
Speaker 6: talking about the message to his team before this before

2105
01:34:40,520 --> 01:34:41,799
Speaker 6: his game against Oregon.

2106
01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:43,759
Speaker 5: We've we've heard that we heard.

2107
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:46,960
Speaker 6: Him recently talking about what it would mean to win

2108
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:48,960
Speaker 6: a national title for Who's your Nation.

2109
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:51,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would mean a lot, and I know how

2110
01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:53,439
Speaker 3: much it would mean to people, and I know that

2111
01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:56,040
Speaker 3: the best way to accomplish this goal is a relateds

2112
01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:58,920
Speaker 3: foes in the football and really just trying to dial

2113
01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:01,080
Speaker 3: it in for this game and treat it a normal game,

2114
01:35:01,120 --> 01:35:03,599
Speaker 3: although it's not a normal game, the tree to as one.

2115
01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:06,360
Speaker 3: And although you're canna prepare a little bit more, and

2116
01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:08,960
Speaker 3: although that it's gonna externalities are going to pressure it

2117
01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:10,519
Speaker 3: to be a little bit more than a normal game,

2118
01:35:11,080 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 3: to really really keep it in that mindset, in that

2119
01:35:14,120 --> 01:35:16,840
Speaker 3: football mindset and do my part, just because I know

2120
01:35:17,400 --> 01:35:19,600
Speaker 3: myself focusing on the job and myself focused in the

2121
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:21,920
Speaker 3: present gives the Hoosiers the best chance to win. And

2122
01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:23,519
Speaker 3: I owe it to my teammates, to my coach is

2123
01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:24,280
Speaker 3: an also whogenation.

2124
01:35:25,160 --> 01:35:27,280
Speaker 6: I love that me staying at the moment gives the

2125
01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:28,679
Speaker 6: Hoosiers the best chance to win.

2126
01:35:28,920 --> 01:35:29,880
Speaker 4: What was that word he use?

2127
01:35:31,479 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 10: Don't ask me. I feel like I have to get

2128
01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:33,840
Speaker 10: the dictionary out.

2129
01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:35,960
Speaker 4: Can you can you play like the first ten seconds

2130
01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:36,920
Speaker 4: of that again? Yeah?

2131
01:35:36,960 --> 01:35:38,320
Speaker 3: I would have mean a lot, and I know how

2132
01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:40,160
Speaker 3: much it would mean to people, and I know that

2133
01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:41,240
Speaker 3: the best way to.

2134
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:42,080
Speaker 4: Accomplish this goal.

2135
01:35:42,080 --> 01:35:45,120
Speaker 3: It's a religious focus in the football and really just

2136
01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:46,639
Speaker 3: trying to dial it in for this game and treat

2137
01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:49,040
Speaker 3: as a normal game, although it's not a normal game,

2138
01:35:49,240 --> 01:35:50,360
Speaker 3: the tree to as one.

2139
01:35:52,400 --> 01:35:54,160
Speaker 4: I thought he said something different maybe I should add

2140
01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:55,640
Speaker 4: to play a longer mark. Sorry about that?

2141
01:35:57,160 --> 01:35:59,040
Speaker 10: Well, no, none of those words. What kind of education

2142
01:35:59,080 --> 01:35:59,519
Speaker 10: they give you?

2143
01:35:59,560 --> 01:36:01,960
Speaker 4: An I had extra something or other in there, and

2144
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,280
Speaker 4: I had no idea what he was saying, Like.

2145
01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,599
Speaker 10: Synergy's likext the word synergy a lot. Did I see?

2146
01:36:06,640 --> 01:36:08,360
Speaker 4: The Raiders are in the building tonight to watch for

2147
01:36:08,439 --> 01:36:10,879
Speaker 4: Nana Mendoza. They're interviewing Mike McDaniel in Miami.

2148
01:36:11,320 --> 01:36:13,320
Speaker 10: Dad, I got a ticket, diard Raiders fan.

2149
01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:16,360
Speaker 11: He believes Banana Mendoza will for the first fourth of

2150
01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:18,760
Speaker 11: that franchise, And I just wish random Mendoza could go

2151
01:36:18,840 --> 01:36:19,360
Speaker 11: back to school.

2152
01:36:19,640 --> 01:36:23,560
Speaker 3: You think, though, that it's gonna externalities are gonna do externality.

2153
01:36:23,880 --> 01:36:25,040
Speaker 5: What was that?

2154
01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:30,559
Speaker 4: I think that's an externalities et phone home. I I

2155
01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:31,479
Speaker 4: just didn't follow that.

2156
01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:36,400
Speaker 11: Any side effect or a consequence of an industrial commercial

2157
01:36:36,400 --> 01:36:40,080
Speaker 11: activity that affects other parties without this being reflected in

2158
01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:43,080
Speaker 11: the cost of the goods or services involved an econ term.

2159
01:36:43,439 --> 01:36:48,479
Speaker 4: Your lord, you think Mendoza feels any pressure Miami.

2160
01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:50,240
Speaker 5: Absolutely a human being.

2161
01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:51,519
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I think you feel it.

2162
01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:55,240
Speaker 11: But I also think that high level athletes, especially one

2163
01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:57,559
Speaker 11: who's performed like he has on the big stage you'll

2164
01:36:57,560 --> 01:37:00,240
Speaker 11: probably wire a little bit differently and you walk up that,

2165
01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:03,679
Speaker 11: Whereas if that was me, I'd be shaking the entire

2166
01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:06,640
Speaker 11: day and be terrified of making a mistake. I think

2167
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:09,600
Speaker 11: the thrill of that feels them, so maybe it's a

2168
01:37:09,600 --> 01:37:11,720
Speaker 11: little bit nerves. I wouldn't I wouldn't be surprised if

2169
01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:14,599
Speaker 11: you came out first driver or two and you missed

2170
01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:17,320
Speaker 11: a couple throws you usually make. But it won't take long,

2171
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:18,600
Speaker 11: I don't think for himnn get dialed in.

2172
01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:20,800
Speaker 4: See that's the thing we haven't seen yet. And if

2173
01:37:20,800 --> 01:37:24,400
Speaker 4: you are a Miami fan for tonight, you're hoping and praying,

2174
01:37:24,439 --> 01:37:27,280
Speaker 4: can you just get your feet wet in this game?

2175
01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:30,679
Speaker 4: Just get in. I mean, Indiana's not let the opponent

2176
01:37:31,439 --> 01:37:34,439
Speaker 4: get into a normal flow of a football game. And

2177
01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:38,280
Speaker 4: you know, since that Ohio State game, really, you know,

2178
01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:42,120
Speaker 4: both the stats are equally as astonishing, in my opinion,

2179
01:37:42,160 --> 01:37:44,600
Speaker 4: the Mendoza stat of you know, the more touchdowns and

2180
01:37:44,640 --> 01:37:47,880
Speaker 4: incompletions and whatever it is five or six games this season.

2181
01:37:47,960 --> 01:37:50,000
Speaker 4: I think the other one that's right up there is

2182
01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:52,479
Speaker 4: the fact that Indiana's recorded an interception on like five

2183
01:37:52,560 --> 01:37:56,360
Speaker 4: opening drives this season. I mean, again, you don't let

2184
01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:59,840
Speaker 4: your opponent breathe, you don't let them at all, just

2185
01:38:00,160 --> 01:38:06,320
Speaker 4: settle into a game. To me, it's you know, I

2186
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:10,400
Speaker 4: fire or Marin crystaball. I'd be deferring in a heartbeat

2187
01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:14,080
Speaker 4: tonight just to say, hey, let's hope and pray. Indiana's

2188
01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:16,320
Speaker 4: got a little bit of nerves out of the gate,

2189
01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:18,840
Speaker 4: and at least we can get two minutes into the

2190
01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:21,880
Speaker 4: game and maybe you know, they're not all of a sudden,

2191
01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:23,880
Speaker 4: you know, eighty yards down the field on us. There

2192
01:38:24,600 --> 01:38:27,120
Speaker 4: kind of a hope and a prayer because Oregon and Alabama,

2193
01:38:27,560 --> 01:38:30,800
Speaker 4: you know, it's been over very very quickly into both

2194
01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:32,960
Speaker 4: of those games there. So I think that's another key

2195
01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:35,760
Speaker 4: to tonight of we haven't you know, Miami has played

2196
01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:38,280
Speaker 4: games with obviously massive game pressure each of the last

2197
01:38:38,320 --> 01:38:40,200
Speaker 4: three games. All three of their playoff games have had

2198
01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:43,160
Speaker 4: big time, big time moments in the second half Indiana

2199
01:38:43,240 --> 01:38:45,479
Speaker 4: second half debate has been should they keep Fernanda Mendoz

2200
01:38:45,560 --> 01:38:45,960
Speaker 4: in the game?

2201
01:38:48,400 --> 01:38:50,839
Speaker 6: Well, you go back to Fernanda Mendoza and the pressure

2202
01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:53,000
Speaker 6: that he feels, and I kind of go back to

2203
01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:55,200
Speaker 6: the beginning of that the Ohio State Gamemember when he

2204
01:38:55,280 --> 01:38:57,800
Speaker 6: just got rocked right out of the gate and he

2205
01:38:57,920 --> 01:38:59,880
Speaker 6: just popped up and you can almost kind of tell like, yeah,

2206
01:39:00,120 --> 01:39:01,559
Speaker 6: now we're playing football, let's go.

2207
01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:03,759
Speaker 5: I just think to your point, Jens.

2208
01:39:04,520 --> 01:39:06,880
Speaker 10: He did not pop up. They're all terrified, but he

2209
01:39:06,960 --> 01:39:07,759
Speaker 10: bounce was over.

2210
01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:10,439
Speaker 6: Point is he bounced back and he talked about how

2211
01:39:10,520 --> 01:39:14,080
Speaker 6: afterwards his feeling was all right, now it's football game,

2212
01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:16,920
Speaker 6: let's go. And I think that's the mindset that he

2213
01:39:16,960 --> 01:39:19,320
Speaker 6: brings into this. I think he's looking forward to it.

2214
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:20,680
Speaker 6: There are a lot of guys that don't feel like

2215
01:39:20,680 --> 01:39:21,559
Speaker 6: they're playing until.

2216
01:39:21,400 --> 01:39:21,880
Speaker 5: They get hit.

2217
01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:24,519
Speaker 11: Well, I'll for him not to take that kind of

2218
01:39:24,560 --> 01:39:28,040
Speaker 11: hit tonight, because boy, for about two minutes there, we thought,

2219
01:39:28,160 --> 01:39:28,960
Speaker 11: you see it was over.

2220
01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,240
Speaker 6: So that comes your way tonight. Seven fifty is the

2221
01:39:32,320 --> 01:39:34,960
Speaker 6: kick time. And one other thing I wanted to play

2222
01:39:34,960 --> 01:39:37,639
Speaker 6: here Mark too. They have Kurt Signetti who was also

2223
01:39:37,720 --> 01:39:40,960
Speaker 6: trying to downplay the fact that Indiana is this favorite

2224
01:39:41,400 --> 01:39:44,519
Speaker 6: in this National championship game over Miami. He was trying

2225
01:39:44,520 --> 01:39:46,280
Speaker 6: to explain to all of us like he just doesn't

2226
01:39:46,320 --> 01:39:47,360
Speaker 6: understand why that is.

2227
01:39:47,840 --> 01:39:51,920
Speaker 17: They're athletic at all positions. They have great team speed,

2228
01:39:51,960 --> 01:39:56,920
Speaker 17: they have good, really good size. Their defensive line. The

2229
01:39:57,000 --> 01:40:00,800
Speaker 17: two ends are you know, game changers. Inside guys are

2230
01:40:00,800 --> 01:40:03,880
Speaker 17: really good. They got depth there too, linebackers running hit.

2231
01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:07,840
Speaker 17: Corey's doing a great job of coordinating the defense. Offensively,

2232
01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:11,320
Speaker 17: the line's big, you know, the start and running back

2233
01:40:11,439 --> 01:40:14,720
Speaker 17: is big, running really well. I think they do a

2234
01:40:14,720 --> 01:40:20,640
Speaker 17: great job of blocking. The receiving corp is deep and athletic,

2235
01:40:20,680 --> 01:40:24,320
Speaker 17: and number ten obviously is an unbelievable weapon. I think

2236
01:40:24,320 --> 01:40:26,800
Speaker 17: he's got ninety nine catches, no drops, and he can

2237
01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:29,280
Speaker 17: throw the ball on trick plays too, and he's a

2238
01:40:29,280 --> 01:40:33,160
Speaker 17: punt returner. And the tight ends are good, and the

2239
01:40:33,200 --> 01:40:36,240
Speaker 17: special teams are good. The specialists are good, and they're

2240
01:40:36,240 --> 01:40:39,519
Speaker 17: playing at home and they didn't have to travel. So

2241
01:40:41,160 --> 01:40:44,200
Speaker 17: I think the eight and a half point spreads a setup.

2242
01:40:51,240 --> 01:40:53,479
Speaker 10: You got one of one man.

2243
01:40:53,720 --> 01:40:59,640
Speaker 11: Like the guy is just he's like weirdly angry all

2244
01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:02,400
Speaker 11: the time, but like a really good dude as well,

2245
01:41:02,600 --> 01:41:05,200
Speaker 11: so you got to enjoy it. I did find it

2246
01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:10,719
Speaker 11: interesting though, we were talking about his rise with IU.

2247
01:41:10,840 --> 01:41:13,720
Speaker 11: He did come out and say over the weekend that

2248
01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:15,880
Speaker 11: he is a college guy that the NFL does not

2249
01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:17,920
Speaker 11: interest him, and I kind of purke my ears up

2250
01:41:17,960 --> 01:41:21,479
Speaker 11: because clearly he's someone who should get interest if he

2251
01:41:21,520 --> 01:41:24,479
Speaker 11: were seriously considering going to the NFL. But sounds like

2252
01:41:24,520 --> 01:41:26,320
Speaker 11: he's content with being in college, and I would think

2253
01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:27,200
Speaker 11: that means being contented.

2254
01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:30,080
Speaker 6: I you, well, everybody hopes that, and everybody hopes for

2255
01:41:30,120 --> 01:41:32,439
Speaker 6: a great performance tonight, and we'll be looking forward to it.

2256
01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:35,960
Speaker 6: And you know, I just I can't get enough I

2257
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:38,680
Speaker 6: play stuff like that, Kevin. I can't get enough of

2258
01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:42,400
Speaker 6: Kurt Signetty. I like hearing him be a little salty

2259
01:41:42,680 --> 01:41:45,479
Speaker 6: and stuff. I love the fact that his team's just

2260
01:41:45,520 --> 01:41:48,240
Speaker 6: picked up a first down on fourth and three and

2261
01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:51,479
Speaker 6: he's got the exact same expression for first down nine

2262
01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:53,920
Speaker 6: ten now that he did a few minutes ago on

2263
01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:56,320
Speaker 6: third and seven. I just love that he is who

2264
01:41:56,360 --> 01:42:00,519
Speaker 6: he is unapologetically, and he's consistent and there no act

2265
01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:00,840
Speaker 6: going on.

2266
01:42:00,920 --> 01:42:03,200
Speaker 5: It's just who the man is. And I love that you.

2267
01:42:03,200 --> 01:42:05,439
Speaker 4: Run into ten Purdue fans today. How many of them

2268
01:42:05,439 --> 01:42:08,720
Speaker 4: are cheering for all you tonight.

2269
01:42:08,479 --> 01:42:09,720
Speaker 6: Secretly or publicly?

2270
01:42:12,080 --> 01:42:13,080
Speaker 10: Question about me one more time?

2271
01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:15,400
Speaker 4: Ten fans you run into today, how many are sharing

2272
01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:18,720
Speaker 4: for all you? It's a great story, is it not?

2273
01:42:19,439 --> 01:42:22,320
Speaker 10: Yeah? But if you're a hater like me, you're not.

2274
01:42:22,320 --> 01:42:25,280
Speaker 4: Waving the Big Ten flag no big big.

2275
01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:28,000
Speaker 11: To the Big Ten is dead to me at this

2276
01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:30,439
Speaker 11: point because I mean, Rutgers and UCLA are in the

2277
01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:31,200
Speaker 11: same conference.

2278
01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:35,559
Speaker 4: But I would say strange Rutgers has been at this point.

2279
01:42:35,680 --> 01:42:38,240
Speaker 4: They are a long standing member in Washington.

2280
01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:40,120
Speaker 11: I mean in a sense of Rutgers shouldn't be in it.

2281
01:42:40,160 --> 01:42:42,479
Speaker 11: I mean like once way on the East coast and

2282
01:42:42,479 --> 01:42:43,719
Speaker 11: the other in the West coast.

2283
01:42:43,920 --> 01:42:45,160
Speaker 4: But you but.

2284
01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:47,280
Speaker 11: Even then, Rutgers, I don't know how rich their history

2285
01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:52,120
Speaker 11: is in college football here. I was, yeah, and there

2286
01:42:52,120 --> 01:42:55,360
Speaker 11: were years ago I would go three maybe out of ten.

2287
01:42:55,880 --> 01:42:56,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was gonna say two.

2288
01:42:57,080 --> 01:42:58,920
Speaker 4: But then we do that poll a couple of years ago,

2289
01:42:59,120 --> 01:43:02,200
Speaker 4: like Purdue fans less they're Indiana fans. Are you cheering

2290
01:43:02,240 --> 01:43:02,880
Speaker 4: for Purdue at all?

2291
01:43:02,960 --> 01:43:03,160
Speaker 6: Yeah?

2292
01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:05,160
Speaker 4: For the national champions right, yeah. I think there was

2293
01:43:05,200 --> 01:43:07,360
Speaker 4: some more content with It's okay if they make the

2294
01:43:07,400 --> 01:43:09,960
Speaker 4: final four, but nothing after that.

2295
01:43:11,080 --> 01:43:13,599
Speaker 12: Your handship watch parties happening in West Lafayette tonight.

2296
01:43:13,880 --> 01:43:15,880
Speaker 4: Well I asked you this in all seriousness last week.

2297
01:43:15,920 --> 01:43:18,599
Speaker 4: You know the field two hour delays we're getting for tomorrow.

2298
01:43:18,640 --> 01:43:21,200
Speaker 4: Where's the cutoff in the state, Like, are there two

2299
01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:21,839
Speaker 4: hour delays?

2300
01:43:21,840 --> 01:43:24,160
Speaker 12: And Brownsburg for sure, we were not on a two

2301
01:43:24,160 --> 01:43:25,040
Speaker 12: hour delay tomorrow.

2302
01:43:25,320 --> 01:43:27,920
Speaker 4: You see, you're not You're not not. See I'm all

2303
01:43:27,960 --> 01:43:33,320
Speaker 4: surprised the local viewing area doesn't have more of the

2304
01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:37,479
Speaker 4: two hour delays. I would still think, you know, the three, one, seven,

2305
01:43:37,640 --> 01:43:41,120
Speaker 4: you could go two hour delay there. But I totally understand,

2306
01:43:41,200 --> 01:43:43,519
Speaker 4: like you know the seven, six, five area codes, not

2307
01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:45,000
Speaker 4: wanting anything to do with the two hour delay.

2308
01:43:45,280 --> 01:43:47,280
Speaker 6: You think Todd Meyer is rooting for Indiana tonight.

2309
01:43:49,240 --> 01:43:50,880
Speaker 4: He's got his candy stripes on right now.

2310
01:43:52,240 --> 01:43:54,120
Speaker 6: Most Purdue guy I've ever met in my life. I

2311
01:43:54,120 --> 01:43:55,080
Speaker 6: don't think he has any.

2312
01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:57,840
Speaker 10: One seven the fans own Todd Meyer, diehard.

2313
01:43:57,840 --> 01:43:58,400
Speaker 4: I you fan.

2314
01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:01,320
Speaker 6: He's going to close the drapes tonight, turn off the lights,

2315
01:44:01,360 --> 01:44:03,160
Speaker 6: and go to sleep and wake up tomorrow and pretend

2316
01:44:03,160 --> 01:44:03,880
Speaker 6: it never happened.

2317
01:44:06,760 --> 01:44:09,200
Speaker 11: Boy, I'll tell you what if if he ever cheered

2318
01:44:09,240 --> 01:44:13,960
Speaker 11: for IU, I would honestly call a doctor. Now when

2319
01:44:13,960 --> 01:44:16,519
Speaker 11: I look at this is a question we're actually debating

2320
01:44:16,560 --> 01:44:20,880
Speaker 11: here in the YouTube chat. Do you think Fernando's personality

2321
01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:23,280
Speaker 11: reminds you of Andrew Luck at all? Not saying he's

2322
01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:27,040
Speaker 11: going to retire and whatever relaxed people, but he's such

2323
01:44:27,040 --> 01:44:29,400
Speaker 11: a unique figure that I'm trying to think of personalities

2324
01:44:29,400 --> 01:44:32,479
Speaker 11: that I've overlapped with in my career or have kind

2325
01:44:32,479 --> 01:44:35,639
Speaker 11: of seen along the way who act and carry themselves

2326
01:44:35,760 --> 01:44:38,240
Speaker 11: like him, and Luck is probably the first one that

2327
01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:42,080
Speaker 11: comes to mind because it's like a it's a positivity,

2328
01:44:42,280 --> 01:44:46,240
Speaker 11: it's a levity to him. But also he's very deeply passionate,

2329
01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,840
Speaker 11: he's a competitor, he's a dog. So yeah, I don't

2330
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:51,599
Speaker 11: know if anybody else comes to mind for you all,

2331
01:44:51,840 --> 01:44:52,840
Speaker 11: just describing that.

2332
01:44:52,800 --> 01:44:55,720
Speaker 4: Dude, there's definitely a lot that you see. I mean

2333
01:44:55,800 --> 01:44:59,280
Speaker 4: the quirkiness, honestly is you know, made Mark play that

2334
01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:02,479
Speaker 4: audio back earlier. Some of the word choice, certainly. I

2335
01:45:02,479 --> 01:45:06,240
Speaker 4: mean their intelligence level strikes me, you know as the

2336
01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:08,519
Speaker 4: same here this from I don't know if this person

2337
01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:10,519
Speaker 4: wants me to reveal their name or not, but here

2338
01:45:10,520 --> 01:45:13,639
Speaker 4: in the Twitter sphere or excuse me on the text line,

2339
01:45:13,880 --> 01:45:15,720
Speaker 4: I played wide receiver for Joe Teller and I'm wearing

2340
01:45:15,720 --> 01:45:17,040
Speaker 4: an EYU jacket to work today.

2341
01:45:17,920 --> 01:45:21,400
Speaker 6: Okay, respect, I do respect that you.

2342
01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:24,839
Speaker 4: Guys say respect. Some might say sacrilegious. You played football

2343
01:45:24,840 --> 01:45:26,360
Speaker 4: for Purdue and you're rooting for Indiana.

2344
01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:28,120
Speaker 11: Well, I honestly think that you might have the most

2345
01:45:28,160 --> 01:45:30,920
Speaker 11: qualified opinion of given that situation for the universe.

2346
01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:34,479
Speaker 4: Where's your hater jacket, James, Boy, that's the softest response

2347
01:45:34,520 --> 01:45:35,559
Speaker 4: that I've ever heard from you.

2348
01:45:35,960 --> 01:45:39,000
Speaker 10: Well, me, I'm a hater, he's not. That's the difference.

2349
01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:40,360
Speaker 15: You know.

2350
01:45:40,400 --> 01:45:42,000
Speaker 10: I would never cheer for a team that I don't like.

2351
01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:43,960
Speaker 4: I mean, come on now, Anthony, I'm a Purdue grat

2352
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:45,360
Speaker 4: and I root for any team in the Big Ten.

2353
01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:48,719
Speaker 4: Look at that. Gosh, so the Big Ten thing is real.

2354
01:45:48,960 --> 01:45:51,120
Speaker 4: And then of course you have other people here Purdue

2355
01:45:51,120 --> 01:45:51,920
Speaker 4: fan go Miami.

2356
01:45:52,560 --> 01:45:55,280
Speaker 11: Yeah, exactly, that's a true fan. The rest of your frauds,

2357
01:45:56,400 --> 01:45:58,960
Speaker 11: even the ones who played for a Purdue No, I

2358
01:45:58,960 --> 01:46:01,840
Speaker 11: don't know. I feel like I would not be able

2359
01:46:01,840 --> 01:46:03,920
Speaker 11: to do it, like if I'm a true Nemetism. I mean,

2360
01:46:03,960 --> 01:46:06,000
Speaker 11: I've leaned into the bit now with the whole candy

2361
01:46:06,080 --> 01:46:08,240
Speaker 11: dry pants and all that. But I didn't grow up

2362
01:46:08,320 --> 01:46:10,440
Speaker 11: actively hating Indiana.

2363
01:46:10,800 --> 01:46:12,280
Speaker 12: I tell you right now, the Packers are in the

2364
01:46:12,320 --> 01:46:14,439
Speaker 12: Super Bowl. I'm not rooting for the NFC North.

2365
01:46:14,600 --> 01:46:16,880
Speaker 4: Okay, you're carrying your NFC North flag mark.

2366
01:46:17,080 --> 01:46:17,599
Speaker 6: How about the.

2367
01:46:17,560 --> 01:46:19,559
Speaker 10: Lions of Dan Kim NFC North flag?

2368
01:46:20,120 --> 01:46:21,559
Speaker 4: I do think, you know, when you look at these

2369
01:46:21,560 --> 01:46:25,800
Speaker 4: two stories, I think for Indye, well you could say

2370
01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:30,400
Speaker 4: respect and jealousy are equally alive here for both stories.

2371
01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:34,400
Speaker 4: You know, I think from an Indiana basketball standpoint, they

2372
01:46:34,439 --> 01:46:37,680
Speaker 4: look at what Matt Painter's done and they're like, damn, like,

2373
01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:40,360
Speaker 4: how do you not respect that? Especially with you know,

2374
01:46:40,680 --> 01:46:43,200
Speaker 4: still a good amount of the in state influence on

2375
01:46:43,240 --> 01:46:45,760
Speaker 4: that roster. And you're also jealous saying how much money

2376
01:46:45,800 --> 01:46:48,160
Speaker 4: have we spent on our basketball program and we haven't

2377
01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:52,640
Speaker 4: been able to do that? Whereas produe football, you know,

2378
01:46:52,680 --> 01:46:54,559
Speaker 4: it's probably more of the way how many coaches have

2379
01:46:54,640 --> 01:46:58,040
Speaker 4: we hired when we could have hired Kurt Signetty or

2380
01:46:58,080 --> 01:47:01,439
Speaker 4: you know that. You know, it's not like Indiana, you know,

2381
01:47:01,760 --> 01:47:04,280
Speaker 4: paid an absurd amount of money to get kurtz Ignetty

2382
01:47:04,280 --> 01:47:06,479
Speaker 4: to come coach their football program. You know, kurtz IGNETI.

2383
01:47:06,520 --> 01:47:08,479
Speaker 4: I don't think it was on any serious Big ten

2384
01:47:08,920 --> 01:47:12,400
Speaker 4: necessarily coaching list. I did find it interesting that Signetti said,

2385
01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:16,080
Speaker 4: oh boy, is this real? Mark Sean McDermott fired, That

2386
01:47:16,200 --> 01:47:16,599
Speaker 4: is real?

2387
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:17,320
Speaker 5: Wow?

2388
01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:21,519
Speaker 4: Damn hm hmm.

2389
01:47:25,160 --> 01:47:27,439
Speaker 11: I think it goes back whenever this happens. Kevin, I

2390
01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:32,120
Speaker 11: think of the conversation you brought up of how other

2391
01:47:32,280 --> 01:47:36,640
Speaker 11: teams standards look a lot different than here in Indianapolis.

2392
01:47:37,120 --> 01:47:39,000
Speaker 11: When's the last time I Bills did not make the playoffs?

2393
01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:40,080
Speaker 11: One the last time they didn't make it to the

2394
01:47:40,120 --> 01:47:40,840
Speaker 11: divisional round?

2395
01:47:41,280 --> 01:47:45,759
Speaker 4: John Harball, Mike Tomlin. I found it wild over the weekend,

2396
01:47:45,760 --> 01:47:48,639
Speaker 4: like the Green Bay Packers are debating this like should

2397
01:47:48,680 --> 01:47:51,280
Speaker 4: they continue with their future? And I decided to look

2398
01:47:51,360 --> 01:47:55,719
Speaker 4: up the resumes of Brian Goutenkaz the GM and Matt Lafleur,

2399
01:47:56,160 --> 01:47:59,840
Speaker 4: and I'm like, oh my gosh, look at their resumes

2400
01:48:00,560 --> 01:48:04,360
Speaker 4: Packers and we're debating that with as James Boys alluded

2401
01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:07,840
Speaker 4: to the county method, the zero one two of Chris Ballard.

2402
01:48:07,920 --> 01:48:11,040
Speaker 12: I feel like this offseason coaching cycle is just basically

2403
01:48:11,080 --> 01:48:13,559
Speaker 12: looking at West fifty six, like are you sure you

2404
01:48:13,600 --> 01:48:16,160
Speaker 12: don't want to reconsider dumb question?

2405
01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:18,320
Speaker 4: But that's the best opening, right look at the candidates

2406
01:48:18,320 --> 01:48:19,479
Speaker 4: that are available right now.

2407
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:21,479
Speaker 6: I don't know, would you like to coach Josh Allen?

2408
01:48:22,040 --> 01:48:22,680
Speaker 10: Absolutely?

2409
01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:26,479
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think that is the best opening, even with

2410
01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:29,640
Speaker 11: respect to Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, but I think

2411
01:48:29,720 --> 01:48:32,320
Speaker 11: Josh Allen is a better player than Lamar is right

2412
01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:35,400
Speaker 11: now today, and I also think that you're in a

2413
01:48:35,400 --> 01:48:36,120
Speaker 11: better situation.

2414
01:48:36,760 --> 01:48:39,519
Speaker 4: So ten of the thirty two, right, that will be

2415
01:48:39,600 --> 01:48:40,800
Speaker 4: our number here.

2416
01:48:40,880 --> 01:48:43,960
Speaker 12: That's got to be one of the higher turnover fantastically right.

2417
01:48:43,960 --> 01:48:46,000
Speaker 4: I don't think we hit double digits. We of course

2418
01:48:46,040 --> 01:48:49,599
Speaker 4: have one filled with the hardball finalization there to the Giants.

2419
01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:53,000
Speaker 4: So when Stefanski hy falcons, yeah, good call. So yes,

2420
01:48:53,080 --> 01:48:55,000
Speaker 4: eight of thirty two now, dang.

2421
01:48:55,080 --> 01:48:57,600
Speaker 11: Sean mcderbin got up there and slammed the elect in

2422
01:48:57,600 --> 01:48:59,360
Speaker 11: a sound standing up for Buffalo.

2423
01:48:59,120 --> 01:49:01,360
Speaker 4: John Harbaugh going to be? Was that ink totally dry

2424
01:49:01,520 --> 01:49:02,920
Speaker 4: on the Giants contact there?

2425
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:04,640
Speaker 10: Hey? Truly I kind of wanted to be a.

2426
01:49:04,600 --> 01:49:05,439
Speaker 4: Little more upstate.

2427
01:49:05,640 --> 01:49:07,439
Speaker 10: It is a very good point. Are you kidding me?

2428
01:49:07,479 --> 01:49:10,280
Speaker 10: Oh boy, he's probably thinking, yeah, it is the ink dry.

2429
01:49:11,080 --> 01:49:12,599
Speaker 5: Alright, let's check it down.

2430

Speaker 5: Slash Indeed, less than two.

2435
01:49:35,120 --> 01:49:37,800
Speaker 6: Minutes ago on the X Twitter whatever you want to

2436
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:41,759
Speaker 6: call it, Adam Schefter, the official account noting that Bill's

2437
01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:45,560
Speaker 6: have fired head coach Sean McDermott. Per source, all of

2438
01:49:45,600 --> 01:49:48,439
Speaker 6: a sudden, there is a very attractive opening James Boyd

2439
01:49:49,120 --> 01:49:50,479
Speaker 6: in the National Football League.

2440
01:49:50,560 --> 01:49:53,639
Speaker 11: I wonder if they keep their GM Brandon Bean, because

2441
01:49:53,760 --> 01:49:55,960
Speaker 11: they've sort of been to use a Kevin Bohen term

2442
01:49:56,240 --> 01:49:59,600
Speaker 11: tied at the hip throughout their tenure in Buffalo. But

2443
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:01,800
Speaker 11: I would see the split, and I wonder more changes

2444
01:50:01,800 --> 01:50:02,280
Speaker 11: could be on the.

2445
01:50:02,200 --> 01:50:05,719
Speaker 4: Way if Beans hired the same cyclist Chris Baller twenty seventeen. There,

2446
01:50:06,040 --> 01:50:08,920
Speaker 4: Sean McDermott, I believe has been there right that entire time.

2447
01:50:09,040 --> 01:50:12,519
Speaker 4: If I'm not mistaken, so quite the NFL news there

2448
01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:15,479
Speaker 4: as Black Monday extends now here a couple weeks into January.

2449
01:50:15,560 --> 01:50:18,360
Speaker 6: All right, thenk college football course, the National Championship Game

2450
01:50:18,400 --> 01:50:21,839
Speaker 6: comes your way tonight in Miami. The undefeated Indiana Hoosiers

2451
01:50:21,840 --> 01:50:24,400
Speaker 6: a seven and a half point favorite against the Miami Hurricanes.

2452
01:50:24,400 --> 01:50:27,320
Speaker 6: They are thirteen and two. Miami's won seven straight in

2453
01:50:27,320 --> 01:50:30,839
Speaker 6: their last two games, though, Man, have the Indiana Hoosiers

2454
01:50:30,840 --> 01:50:34,559
Speaker 6: been good. A route of Alabama, a beatdown of Oregon,

2455
01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:37,600
Speaker 6: and that's probably why the computers like them. At a

2456
01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:42,000
Speaker 6: sixty eight point three percent clip Kevin Bowen to win tonight.

2457
01:50:42,080 --> 01:50:44,599
Speaker 6: But again, if you're Kurt Taknata, you're not buying any

2458
01:50:44,640 --> 01:50:47,280
Speaker 6: of that that that favorite hype note at all.

2459
01:50:47,400 --> 01:50:49,040
Speaker 4: No, And again a key to watch I think early

2460
01:50:49,080 --> 01:50:51,479
Speaker 4: on in the game one of Miami starting DB's out

2461
01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:53,920
Speaker 4: due to targeting in the first half. Does Indiana take

2462
01:50:53,960 --> 01:50:57,240
Speaker 4: any concentrated shots specifically in that first half? You know

2463
01:50:57,240 --> 01:50:59,400
Speaker 4: they're a little banged up to Miami in the secondary,

2464
01:50:59,439 --> 01:51:02,120
Speaker 4: they will be with out. They're starting tight An Elijah often,

2465
01:51:02,920 --> 01:51:05,280
Speaker 4: so that I think is a big storyline to keep

2466
01:51:05,280 --> 01:51:06,880
Speaker 4: an eye on early in the game.

2467
01:51:07,080 --> 01:51:10,280
Speaker 6: All Right, National Football League, aside from the recent firing

2468
01:51:10,320 --> 01:51:12,880
Speaker 6: of Sean McDermott, we had four playoff games over the

2469
01:51:12,920 --> 01:51:16,320
Speaker 6: weekend and in the AFC and NFC championship games coming

2470
01:51:16,400 --> 01:51:19,639
Speaker 6: up next Sunday, Denver will be hosting the New England

2471
01:51:19,640 --> 01:51:23,080
Speaker 6: Patriots and the NFC it'll be the Seahawks hosting the

2472
01:51:23,160 --> 01:51:26,880
Speaker 6: Los Angeles Rams, and this is going to be I

2473
01:51:26,920 --> 01:51:29,160
Speaker 6: love championship weekend right to go to the Super Bowl.

2474
01:51:29,200 --> 01:51:32,160
Speaker 6: We'll see what happens there. NBA tonight to Pacers, well,

2475
01:51:32,200 --> 01:51:34,080
Speaker 6: they'll be coming off that big loss to Detroit and

2476
01:51:34,080 --> 01:51:36,439
Speaker 6: they'll be in Philadelphia tonight, hopefully with a lot more

2477
01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:40,040
Speaker 6: healthy bodies looking to get Pascal Siakabac, who was just resting.

2478
01:51:40,120 --> 01:51:41,760
Speaker 5: That was just a load management game for him the

2479
01:51:41,800 --> 01:51:42,519
Speaker 5: other night, right, Kevin.

2480
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:44,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, So for those who didn't follow the Pacers over

2481
01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:47,200
Speaker 4: the weekend, they won on Friday, they beat the Pelicans,

2482
01:51:47,680 --> 01:51:50,400
Speaker 4: and then with that back to back, they decided to

2483
01:51:50,600 --> 01:51:53,320
Speaker 4: rest a lot of guys for that Detroit game on

2484
01:51:53,400 --> 01:51:56,519
Speaker 4: Saturday there and they got blitzed in that game. So

2485
01:51:56,560 --> 01:51:59,439
Speaker 4: they've got the Sixers tonight and this starts along road trip.

2486
01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:02,840
Speaker 4: It on ice road trip here for the Pacers. Here

2487
01:52:02,960 --> 01:52:07,280
Speaker 4: some notable opponents Celtics coming up Wednesday, Thunder on Friday.

2488
01:52:07,400 --> 01:52:10,080
Speaker 4: So I know, maybe I'll try to push Rick Carl

2489
01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:12,479
Speaker 4: out a Wednesday this week just because Tomorrow obviously it'll

2490
01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:13,600
Speaker 4: be a lot of IU.

2491
01:52:13,360 --> 01:52:16,160
Speaker 6: Reaction, all right, No college basketball locally for us to

2492
01:52:16,160 --> 01:52:18,280
Speaker 6: worry about this evening, at least as far as the

2493
01:52:18,280 --> 01:52:21,519
Speaker 6: Big Ten, Big East ACC On Tuesday, though, I you

2494

01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:32,120
Speaker 6: playing at the University of North Carolina. We've got Scott Dowlson,

2497
01:52:32,280 --> 01:52:35,519
Speaker 6: the athletic director of the Indiana Hoosiers, right around the corner.

2498
01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:37,920
Speaker 6: As we continue on the Fan Morning Show at ninety

2499
01:52:37,920 --> 01:52:39,559
Speaker 6: three five and one o seven five the Fan.

2500
01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:44,600
Speaker 18: Everybody waking up in a good mood in UH, Bloomington

2501
01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:46,880
Speaker 18: and other parts of Indiana's The Hoosiers get ready to

2502
01:52:46,920 --> 01:52:49,919
Speaker 18: play for a national championship later on tonight in Miami

2503
01:52:50,560 --> 01:52:51,600
Speaker 18: against Miami.

2504
01:52:51,760 --> 01:52:53,080
Speaker 5: And we've been talking about it for.

2505
01:52:53,040 --> 01:52:54,920
Speaker 6: Weeks and weeks, been talking about it all day long.

2506
01:52:54,960 --> 01:52:56,680
Speaker 6: We'll continue to talk about it all day long. But

2507
01:52:56,720 --> 01:52:58,720
Speaker 6: what's different right now? So we had to the pay

2508
01:52:58,800 --> 01:53:01,560
Speaker 6: Less Liquers hotline. We talked to the athletic director for

2509
01:53:01,600 --> 01:53:04,840
Speaker 6: the Indiana Hoosier, Scott Dolson. You're fine with us talking

2510
01:53:04,880 --> 01:53:06,800
Speaker 6: about this forever and ever. I'm guessing right.

2511
01:53:08,000 --> 01:53:10,600
Speaker 14: Absolutely. Thanks for having me on and I'd like to

2512
01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:12,120
Speaker 14: do this every week. Let's keep it going.

2513
01:53:12,320 --> 01:53:13,960
Speaker 6: I like, well, good morning, and thanks so much for

2514
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:17,320
Speaker 6: being here. We appreciate that. What is game day going

2515
01:53:17,360 --> 01:53:19,040
Speaker 6: to be like for Scott Dolson?

2516
01:53:20,960 --> 01:53:21,840
Speaker 14: That's a great question.

2517
01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:24,519
Speaker 15: I mean, it's pretty much the same on every road trip,

2518
01:53:24,560 --> 01:53:26,599
Speaker 15: and that's one of the things you'll find and it's

2519
01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:29,200
Speaker 15: going to sound so boring, but you know, coach Sig,

2520
01:53:29,200 --> 01:53:32,439
Speaker 15: the way he operates the program, everything is is pretty

2521
01:53:32,520 --> 01:53:35,240
Speaker 15: much the same every step of the way. And then

2522
01:53:35,240 --> 01:53:37,599
Speaker 15: for me, I kind of do the same thing as well.

2523
01:53:37,640 --> 01:53:39,160
Speaker 15: I try to be around the fans as much as

2524
01:53:39,160 --> 01:53:42,160
Speaker 15: I can and thank everyone for being here and kind

2525
01:53:42,160 --> 01:53:43,800
Speaker 15: of kind of share that.

2526
01:53:44,120 --> 01:53:45,320
Speaker 14: Sentiment as much as I can.

2527
01:53:45,360 --> 01:53:47,200
Speaker 15: And then and then really by the end of the day,

2528
01:53:47,280 --> 01:53:49,519
Speaker 15: I end up with the team and just try to

2529
01:53:49,520 --> 01:53:52,760
Speaker 15: be around them and right over to the game with them.

2530
01:53:53,320 --> 01:53:54,879
Speaker 14: And then once we get there.

2531
01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:57,880
Speaker 15: We've got a nice reception at the stadium, which will

2532
01:53:57,920 --> 01:53:58,280
Speaker 15: be fun.

2533
01:53:58,840 --> 01:53:59,760
Speaker 14: And then uh, and then.

2534
01:53:59,680 --> 01:54:01,519
Speaker 15: Get in to the just can't wait for kickoff, and

2535
01:54:01,600 --> 01:54:04,760
Speaker 15: it'll seem like this day lasted forty hours because it

2536
01:54:04,880 --> 01:54:06,280
Speaker 15: just we just can't wait for kickoff.

2537
01:54:06,520 --> 01:54:06,840
Speaker 6: Scott.

2538
01:54:06,920 --> 01:54:09,360
Speaker 4: We can't think enough for a day that I'm sure

2539
01:54:09,400 --> 01:54:12,120
Speaker 4: you've probably dreamed of at some point. Reminded of the

2540
01:54:12,160 --> 01:54:14,720
Speaker 4: Bubba Watson quote when he won The Masters of you know,

2541
01:54:14,760 --> 01:54:17,760
Speaker 4: apologizing Jim Nantz saying sorry, I never got here in

2542
01:54:17,760 --> 01:54:19,720
Speaker 4: my dreams. And I don't know if that'll be you

2543
01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:23,240
Speaker 4: tonight around eleven o'clock or so, but in a quiet moment,

2544
01:54:23,280 --> 01:54:26,320
Speaker 4: whether it's the plane ride back from Pasadena, Atlanta or

2545
01:54:26,360 --> 01:54:29,720
Speaker 4: even to Miami, what has been maybe if there is

2546
01:54:29,760 --> 01:54:32,160
Speaker 4: a prevailing thought that you've had with a run that

2547
01:54:32,320 --> 01:54:34,200
Speaker 4: you know is truly Hollywood.

2548
01:54:33,760 --> 01:54:35,840
Speaker 14: Like, yeah, it is.

2549
01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:38,520
Speaker 15: It's really it's so funny because it really is hard

2550
01:54:38,560 --> 01:54:40,880
Speaker 15: to put in the words kind of what all this

2551
01:54:41,000 --> 01:54:44,720
Speaker 15: has meant, because obviously the final chapter is not written yet,

2552
01:54:44,840 --> 01:54:47,920
Speaker 15: so we're trying to It's easy to say in terms

2553
01:54:47,960 --> 01:54:50,920
Speaker 15: of we're trying to really focus on the routine and

2554
01:54:50,960 --> 01:54:52,640
Speaker 15: all the work that needs to be done, whether it's

2555
01:54:52,640 --> 01:54:54,920
Speaker 15: our ticket manager, just the stuff behind the scenes that

2556
01:54:54,920 --> 01:54:57,760
Speaker 15: we're trying to do to get to the finish line.

2557
01:54:57,760 --> 01:55:01,080
Speaker 15: But you know, I'm sure at some point, I'm sure

2558
01:55:01,080 --> 01:55:04,040
Speaker 15: tonight it'll really hit me and you know, we'll take

2559
01:55:04,040 --> 01:55:06,440
Speaker 15: a time to really reflect and think about all the

2560
01:55:07,160 --> 01:55:07,680
Speaker 15: great things.

2561
01:55:07,680 --> 01:55:09,680
Speaker 14: And what I think about is, I'm just saying this right.

2562
01:55:09,560 --> 01:55:14,240
Speaker 15: Now is just really the joy in the really just

2563
01:55:14,480 --> 01:55:19,120
Speaker 15: unbelievable outpouring of emotion from our fan base. Every step

2564
01:55:19,160 --> 01:55:21,200
Speaker 15: of the way. Our fans have been incredible. I go

2565
01:55:21,280 --> 01:55:24,360
Speaker 15: back to last year, you know, just as this whole,

2566
01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:28,040
Speaker 15: this whole thing started and kind of being built, and

2567
01:55:28,120 --> 01:55:31,560
Speaker 15: just how our fans embraced everything that we've done. So

2568
01:55:31,640 --> 01:55:34,040
Speaker 15: I just can't thank them enough. I mean, the sacrifices

2569
01:55:34,120 --> 01:55:35,960
Speaker 15: that people have made for us to be here.

2570
01:55:36,280 --> 01:55:38,080
Speaker 14: It just sounds a cliche, but we would be here

2571
01:55:38,080 --> 01:55:38,440
Speaker 14: without it.

2572
01:55:38,480 --> 01:55:40,280
Speaker 15: So that's probably the thing I think about the most

2573
01:55:40,320 --> 01:55:42,280
Speaker 15: is just Singer fans, Like last night in the hotel

2574
01:55:42,680 --> 01:55:44,400
Speaker 15: when I got back after I had to go to

2575
01:55:44,440 --> 01:55:47,720
Speaker 15: the CFP reception and I got back and you just

2576
01:55:47,800 --> 01:55:51,880
Speaker 15: can't imagine the energy, the emotion. Just our fans are

2577
01:55:51,920 --> 01:55:54,760
Speaker 15: just everywhere, and it's just we appreciate it so much.

2578
01:55:55,160 --> 01:55:57,680
Speaker 11: Yeah, we have Scott Dowson on the line, vice president

2579
01:55:57,720 --> 01:56:01,640
Speaker 11: and director of inter Collegiate Athlete at I you, Scott

2580
01:56:01,720 --> 01:56:04,000
Speaker 11: James Boyd. Here, I'm in Illinois, alum, and I'm wearing

2581
01:56:04,040 --> 01:56:06,440
Speaker 11: candy strip pants today because I bought these after I

2582
01:56:06,520 --> 01:56:10,760
Speaker 11: lost a really bad bet way back when between Illinois

2583
01:56:11,080 --> 01:56:13,480
Speaker 11: and I you and oh my goodness, that probably was

2584
01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:15,360
Speaker 11: the game in all serious is where I thought, oh

2585
01:56:15,400 --> 01:56:19,040
Speaker 11: my god, I used for real. So obviously you have

2586
01:56:19,080 --> 01:56:21,480
Speaker 11: to believe in your position, believe in the vision and

2587
01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:23,840
Speaker 11: what you guys are building. But when did you realize

2588
01:56:24,160 --> 01:56:27,760
Speaker 11: perhaps throughout this season that we have a legitimate national

2589
01:56:27,880 --> 01:56:28,839
Speaker 11: championship contender.

2590
01:56:30,600 --> 01:56:32,280
Speaker 15: Yeah. I think you bring up a great point, and

2591
01:56:32,280 --> 01:56:33,880
Speaker 15: I appreciate you wearing those candy stripe pants.

2592
01:56:34,160 --> 01:56:36,760
Speaker 10: Man listeners are loving it. It's painful.

2593
01:56:38,320 --> 01:56:40,640
Speaker 15: It means a lot. But you know, you do bring

2594
01:56:40,720 --> 01:56:44,080
Speaker 15: up the concern the Illinois game was big. But you know,

2595
01:56:44,120 --> 01:56:47,240
Speaker 15: I remember this summer on a Saturday night, my wife

2596
01:56:47,320 --> 01:56:50,680
Speaker 15: and I went to a practice. It was kind of

2597
01:56:50,680 --> 01:56:54,480
Speaker 15: one of those Faul Camp practices, right when Paul Camp

2598
01:56:54,520 --> 01:56:56,880
Speaker 15: was getting going. And I'm not saying we were sitting

2599
01:56:56,880 --> 01:56:58,839
Speaker 15: there and as I was talking, I think Minette Signetti,

2600
01:56:58,880 --> 01:57:00,800
Speaker 15: coach's wife, stopped by. It was just the three of us,

2601
01:57:00,800 --> 01:57:03,400
Speaker 15: and it's kind of Mpple World Stadium when we're watching practice.

2602
01:57:03,880 --> 01:57:06,080
Speaker 15: And I'd be lying if I said I sat there

2603
01:57:06,120 --> 01:57:08,920
Speaker 15: thinking we can win a national championship, but you know,

2604
01:57:08,960 --> 01:57:12,520
Speaker 15: we have no coach Sig said, self imposed limitations. And

2605
01:57:12,800 --> 01:57:15,080
Speaker 15: as I was sitting there, I remember we were talking

2606
01:57:15,120 --> 01:57:17,760
Speaker 15: about just you know, we just looked really good and

2607
01:57:17,840 --> 01:57:20,600
Speaker 15: really sharp and together and just all, you know, just

2608
01:57:20,640 --> 01:57:23,920
Speaker 15: to work. There's a there's a you know, everybody sees

2609
01:57:23,960 --> 01:57:25,880
Speaker 15: what happens on the field, which has been awesome, but

2610
01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:29,800
Speaker 15: just the leadership on this team, the quality of just

2611
01:57:29,960 --> 01:57:32,880
Speaker 15: character of the players. I think all those things are

2612
01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:36,280
Speaker 15: important to winning. And at really that moment, I really

2613
01:57:36,320 --> 01:57:38,280
Speaker 15: thought we could be pretty good. But again it just

2614
01:57:38,360 --> 01:57:40,320
Speaker 15: is built from every game from that point on. And

2615
01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:43,400
Speaker 15: the great thing is, again we just take It. Sounds

2616
01:57:43,440 --> 01:57:45,480
Speaker 15: so boring for me to say this, and I apologize,

2617
01:57:45,480 --> 01:57:47,640
Speaker 15: but it really is just one hour at a time,

2618
01:57:47,680 --> 01:57:50,320
Speaker 15: when meeting at a time. That's the way Coach Sig

2619
01:57:50,360 --> 01:57:54,360
Speaker 15: has just ingrained everything in this program. So nobody's hockey

2620
01:57:54,400 --> 01:57:56,520
Speaker 15: year thinking that we just can show up and win

2621
01:57:56,560 --> 01:57:58,480
Speaker 15: a game. We just have to continue to work the

2622
01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:00,960
Speaker 15: process and get one play at a time.

2623
01:58:01,360 --> 01:58:01,960
Speaker 5: I'm just curious.

2624
01:58:01,960 --> 01:58:03,840
Speaker 6: Before we talked more serious stuff, when was the last

2625
01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:06,120
Speaker 6: time Scott Dolson rocked to the candy stripe pants?

2626
01:58:07,200 --> 01:58:09,280
Speaker 15: You know, it is so funny, he said that. I

2627
01:58:09,280 --> 01:58:11,560
Speaker 15: shouldn't even say this out loud. I don't know if

2628
01:58:11,560 --> 01:58:13,640
Speaker 15: I've ever worn candy stripe pants. I probably need to

2629
01:58:13,680 --> 01:58:15,600
Speaker 15: do that. That's pretty embarrassing. I haven't done that. All

2630
01:58:15,640 --> 01:58:18,000
Speaker 15: my family, my kids wear them, and everybody's got them.

2631
01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:19,160
Speaker 14: But I don't know that.

2632
01:58:19,280 --> 01:58:20,840
Speaker 15: I think my body type, but I don't know if

2633
01:58:20,840 --> 01:58:21,640
Speaker 15: I could pull that off.

2634
01:58:21,720 --> 01:58:25,000
Speaker 14: I might, my kids wouldn't let.

2635
01:58:24,880 --> 01:58:25,200
Speaker 6: Me do that.

2636
01:58:25,800 --> 01:58:32,680
Speaker 4: No, Scott the parade, Yeah, yeah, again, the great Scott Dolson.

2637
01:58:32,720 --> 01:58:34,480
Speaker 4: He's with us here on the paylestic asylum. We can't

2638
01:58:34,480 --> 01:58:36,600
Speaker 4: think I'm enough on game day for that, Scott. We've

2639
01:58:36,600 --> 01:58:39,320
Speaker 4: asked you so much about your first interactions with Kurt Signetti.

2640
01:58:39,360 --> 01:58:41,400
Speaker 4: I don't know if we've asked you about the first

2641
01:58:41,400 --> 01:58:44,040
Speaker 4: time you met for Nando Mendoza. What do you recall

2642
01:58:44,160 --> 01:58:46,360
Speaker 4: from that initial meeting with him?

2643
01:58:46,720 --> 01:58:50,920
Speaker 15: Yeah, I remember, you know, really distinctly because he came

2644
01:58:50,960 --> 01:58:54,600
Speaker 15: in on his visit and I generally meet as many

2645
01:58:55,240 --> 01:58:57,840
Speaker 15: recruiters as I can, and he came by with his father,

2646
01:58:58,280 --> 01:59:00,320
Speaker 15: came by my office and we sat for probably a

2647
01:59:00,320 --> 01:59:02,840
Speaker 15: half hour and at the table in the office, and

2648
01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:06,200
Speaker 15: we had an awesome talk, and I just remember thinking

2649
01:59:06,240 --> 01:59:10,280
Speaker 15: how mature he is and how authentic he is, and

2650
01:59:10,640 --> 01:59:14,280
Speaker 15: it was just really a great conversation. And it really

2651
01:59:14,360 --> 01:59:18,400
Speaker 15: wasn't me, you know, going through kind of our vision

2652
01:59:18,440 --> 01:59:20,720
Speaker 15: for the program and for the department and all the

2653
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:22,040
Speaker 15: things that I generally say.

2654
01:59:22,080 --> 01:59:24,640
Speaker 14: It was really just a great back and forth in exchange.

2655
01:59:24,680 --> 01:59:29,640
Speaker 15: And he's a very inquisitive person, and I've seen it

2656
01:59:29,760 --> 01:59:34,360
Speaker 15: just to meet someone randomly and just really does authentically ask,

2657
01:59:34,480 --> 01:59:36,360
Speaker 15: you know, well tell me what you do. And he

2658
01:59:36,360 --> 01:59:38,440
Speaker 15: doesn't say that just to be kind of nice. He

2659
01:59:38,520 --> 01:59:41,400
Speaker 15: really is inquisitive. So I remember when he left with

2660
01:59:41,440 --> 01:59:44,800
Speaker 15: his dad, just thinking, you know, wow, you know, we

2661
01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:47,320
Speaker 15: know the talent and he's got all kinds of potential.

2662
01:59:47,400 --> 01:59:49,879
Speaker 15: But it was just more him as a person and

2663
01:59:50,520 --> 01:59:53,720
Speaker 15: the leader he is and just how he how he talked.

2664
01:59:53,800 --> 01:59:56,080
Speaker 15: It was just super interesting. Just like I said, he

2665
01:59:56,160 --> 01:59:58,400
Speaker 15: just asked me so many really really great questions.

2666
01:59:58,840 --> 01:59:59,240
Speaker 10: Scott.

2667
01:59:59,280 --> 02:00:03,680
Speaker 11: When you look and the makeup of this team, how

2668
02:00:03,760 --> 02:00:06,280
Speaker 11: much credit do you think goes to not just Kurt Signetty,

2669
02:00:06,400 --> 02:00:09,120
Speaker 11: but the rest of the coaching staff and the recruiter

2670
02:00:09,200 --> 02:00:11,120
Speaker 11: is finding the right guys Because we're in a new

2671
02:00:11,160 --> 02:00:13,600
Speaker 11: age in college football where you can go out and

2672
02:00:13,840 --> 02:00:15,960
Speaker 11: hit the transfer portal and bring guys in they play

2673
02:00:16,040 --> 02:00:18,839
Speaker 11: right away. But finding the right guy So what messes

2674
02:00:18,960 --> 02:00:21,240
Speaker 11: in a way that we've seen to now again you're

2675
02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:22,640
Speaker 11: one one way from national championship.

2676
02:00:23,960 --> 02:00:26,560
Speaker 15: Yeah, I can't give them enough credit. Honestly, it starts

2677
02:00:26,600 --> 02:00:29,640
Speaker 15: with coach Sigg. You know, he said during his interview.

2678
02:00:30,040 --> 02:00:32,120
Speaker 15: One of the things is really important to him is

2679
02:00:32,120 --> 02:00:34,640
Speaker 15: that he is the final thumbs up or thumbs down

2680
02:00:34,680 --> 02:00:38,640
Speaker 15: with any addition to the program, every single recruit, obviously

2681
02:00:38,640 --> 02:00:42,440
Speaker 15: every staff member, and the process they go through and

2682
02:00:42,440 --> 02:00:44,040
Speaker 15: evaluating who.

2683
02:00:43,880 --> 02:00:45,680
Speaker 14: They're going to add to the program.

2684
02:00:45,320 --> 02:00:49,480
Speaker 15: Is in depth, and I really love it just watching

2685
02:00:49,520 --> 02:00:51,880
Speaker 15: how they've done it. And as you can tell by

2686
02:00:51,920 --> 02:00:55,760
Speaker 15: looking at their roster, it's a wide collection of student

2687
02:00:55,760 --> 02:00:59,560
Speaker 15: athletes with different talents, but the one common denominator is

2688
02:00:59,720 --> 02:01:02,600
Speaker 15: you know, he will not add anyone to the program

2689
02:01:02,680 --> 02:01:05,880
Speaker 15: that he feels doesn't have the right intentions and the

2690
02:01:05,960 --> 02:01:08,320
Speaker 15: right character. And again that's easy to say, it's hard

2691
02:01:08,360 --> 02:01:10,400
Speaker 15: to do. You could get lured into while this player

2692
02:01:10,480 --> 02:01:13,600
Speaker 15: is super talented, you know, we can mold in into

2693
02:01:13,720 --> 02:01:15,960
Speaker 15: what would fit for us, and you know that's just

2694
02:01:16,040 --> 02:01:19,040
Speaker 15: not his style. And I've seen it time and time again,

2695
02:01:19,080 --> 02:01:21,520
Speaker 15: and I can't tell you even in this recruiting cycle

2696
02:01:22,120 --> 02:01:24,880
Speaker 15: which transfers that you know, maybe have a player that

2697
02:01:24,880 --> 02:01:27,320
Speaker 15: we brought in that we thought could be an excellent

2698
02:01:27,320 --> 02:01:29,080
Speaker 15: player for us, but then I you know, I've talked

2699
02:01:29,080 --> 02:01:31,040
Speaker 15: to him and he said, yeah, he just wouldn't fit

2700
02:01:31,040 --> 02:01:31,600
Speaker 15: our locker.

2701
02:01:31,440 --> 02:01:34,120
Speaker 14: Rooms, just not got the right type of.

2702
02:01:34,080 --> 02:01:37,480
Speaker 15: Person, and you got to respect that because in this

2703
02:01:37,560 --> 02:01:40,000
Speaker 15: day and age, when you want to win right away,

2704
02:01:40,520 --> 02:01:43,160
Speaker 15: you can kind of maybe fall for the talent and

2705
02:01:43,200 --> 02:01:46,040
Speaker 15: talk yourself into may taking a risk, and he brings

2706
02:01:46,040 --> 02:01:47,960
Speaker 15: in kids that are here for the right reasons, and

2707
02:01:48,120 --> 02:01:50,720
Speaker 15: he can mold into the team that we want to be.

2708
02:01:51,560 --> 02:01:53,480
Speaker 6: Scott. I was talking to somebody who was in Bloomington

2709
02:01:53,960 --> 02:01:56,960
Speaker 6: last week and they were mentioning the fact that it's

2710
02:01:57,000 --> 02:02:00,720
Speaker 6: the time of year where normally things are quiet. Not

2711
02:02:00,760 --> 02:02:05,080
Speaker 6: everybody's returned from from Christmas break and classes haven't really

2712
02:02:05,080 --> 02:02:06,960
Speaker 6: started back up in earnest or anything like that, and

2713
02:02:07,000 --> 02:02:10,040
Speaker 6: they were saying, it's crazy to fill how alive and

2714
02:02:10,240 --> 02:02:14,200
Speaker 6: busy Bloomington and campus feel right now. What's it been

2715
02:02:14,280 --> 02:02:18,000
Speaker 6: like from your perspective to watch your campus embrace this

2716
02:02:18,120 --> 02:02:18,960
Speaker 6: amazing story.

2717
02:02:20,480 --> 02:02:24,480
Speaker 15: It's incredible, and really it was incredible. The thing I

2718
02:02:24,520 --> 02:02:26,200
Speaker 15: think of when you say that is the day we

2719
02:02:26,320 --> 02:02:30,480
Speaker 15: named Coachi head coach. As you know, we had you know,

2720
02:02:30,520 --> 02:02:32,440
Speaker 15: at press conference that day and then ended up at

2721
02:02:32,480 --> 02:02:34,680
Speaker 15: the basketball game that night, and that kind of funny

2722
02:02:34,720 --> 02:02:37,120
Speaker 15: scene we introduced him to the crowd and how you

2723
02:02:37,160 --> 02:02:39,920
Speaker 15: got everybody fired up. But I remember walking. It was

2724
02:02:39,920 --> 02:02:43,360
Speaker 15: a long day. I remember walking out of this room

2725
02:02:43,400 --> 02:02:46,080
Speaker 15: in the side. It was probably three or four minutes

2726
02:02:46,080 --> 02:02:49,280
Speaker 15: before tip off, and Coach Sig and I were walking

2727
02:02:49,360 --> 02:02:51,040
Speaker 15: to his seats. I was just kind of walking with

2728
02:02:51,120 --> 02:02:53,120
Speaker 15: him along the side where our students were up to

2729
02:02:53,160 --> 02:02:56,040
Speaker 15: our right in that end zone. And I'm telling you,

2730
02:02:56,320 --> 02:02:58,920
Speaker 15: the crowd went crazy. I mean it was and I

2731
02:02:59,000 --> 02:03:01,800
Speaker 15: wasn't expecting it because when we hired Coach Sick, he

2732
02:03:01,920 --> 02:03:04,400
Speaker 15: wasn't like I mean, people knew who he was in

2733
02:03:04,440 --> 02:03:09,240
Speaker 15: some regard, but it wasn't like this you know name

2734
02:03:09,280 --> 02:03:12,560
Speaker 15: that was just crazy out there. And my point is

2735
02:03:12,600 --> 02:03:16,000
Speaker 15: from that point on, it was just like an immediate

2736
02:03:16,600 --> 02:03:20,880
Speaker 15: attachment and immediate acceptance by our fans to get behind him.

2737
02:03:21,360 --> 02:03:24,120
Speaker 15: And whether it's our students, whether it's the community. And

2738
02:03:24,520 --> 02:03:26,960
Speaker 15: you feel that energy today and so what you said

2739
02:03:27,000 --> 02:03:30,160
Speaker 15: like last week and our students started classes finally last week,

2740
02:03:30,200 --> 02:03:33,400
Speaker 15: but a couple of weeks before that, the community has

2741
02:03:33,480 --> 02:03:37,600
Speaker 15: just been unbelievable and just that energy, and it was

2742
02:03:37,680 --> 02:03:40,400
Speaker 15: just a it feels that everybody's really unified, which is

2743
02:03:40,760 --> 02:03:43,200
Speaker 15: a great thing for the not just the community, the

2744
02:03:43,360 --> 02:03:44,080
Speaker 15: entire university.

2745
02:03:44,960 --> 02:03:48,200
Speaker 6: Thanks so much for joining us on game day, enjoy

2746
02:03:48,280 --> 02:03:50,840
Speaker 6: every single second of it. I hope we're talking again

2747
02:03:50,920 --> 02:03:53,920
Speaker 6: later this week about you know what, So good luck tonight,

2748
02:03:54,360 --> 02:03:54,720
Speaker 6: I hope.

2749
02:03:54,760 --> 02:03:54,840
Speaker 14: So.

2750
02:03:54,920 --> 02:03:56,560
Speaker 15: Yeah, we'll just take one play at the time. But

2751
02:03:56,560 --> 02:03:58,000
Speaker 15: we're ready and I can't thank you guys enough for

2752
02:03:58,000 --> 02:03:58,360
Speaker 15: having me on.

2753
02:03:58,440 --> 02:04:00,560
Speaker 14: We really really appreciate all the cover. It means a lot.

2754
02:04:00,760 --> 02:04:03,280
Speaker 6: We appreciate the partnership with you guys, and then we're

2755
02:04:03,320 --> 02:04:06,160
Speaker 6: all hoping good things happen, stay safe and have fun.

2756
02:04:06,200 --> 02:04:08,320
Speaker 14: Thank you means a lot. Okay, go ahead and thank you.

2757
02:04:08,360 --> 02:04:08,560
Speaker 4: Thanks.

2758
02:04:09,000 --> 02:04:11,440
Speaker 6: Scott Dwlson, the athletic director at Indiana.

2759
02:04:11,920 --> 02:04:17,080
Speaker 10: Wow, what doesn't own candy stripe pants? We got to

2760
02:04:17,120 --> 02:04:17,879
Speaker 10: get that corrected.

2761
02:04:18,520 --> 02:04:20,480
Speaker 6: I think it's more he's afraid what his kids might

2762
02:04:20,520 --> 02:04:23,600
Speaker 6: say to nobody tell you anything. All right, special treat

2763
02:04:23,680 --> 02:04:25,520
Speaker 6: for you on the way out as you get ready

2764
02:04:25,520 --> 02:04:29,360
Speaker 6: to get inspired for tonight's National championship game, comes your Wayne.

2765
02:04:30,480 --> 02:04:34,920
Speaker 6: Other than when your team wins the big prize? Is

2766
02:04:34,920 --> 02:04:38,120
Speaker 6: there anything better than this? The anticipation Kevin leading up

2767
02:04:38,160 --> 02:04:38,480
Speaker 6: to the.

2768
02:04:38,440 --> 02:04:41,920
Speaker 4: Game, No, no, no, no. I yeah, to be selfish for

2769
02:04:41,960 --> 02:04:44,960
Speaker 4: a minute. I remember waking up last year in Atlanta

2770
02:04:45,040 --> 02:04:47,720
Speaker 4: this very day and thinking to myself. Yeah, this is

2771
02:04:47,800 --> 02:04:51,640
Speaker 4: a part of the euphoria of fandom. That again, we

2772
02:04:51,720 --> 02:04:53,720
Speaker 4: saw it on the reverse from the Buffalo Bills and

2773
02:04:53,760 --> 02:04:55,720
Speaker 4: that emotion over the weekend. Now it's cost their head

2774
02:04:55,760 --> 02:04:58,120
Speaker 4: coach the job. But now it's the other side of it,

2775
02:04:58,280 --> 02:05:00,960
Speaker 4: and it is the pure jubilation and in the anticipation

2776
02:05:01,080 --> 02:05:02,480
Speaker 4: of seven point fifty tonight.

2777
02:05:02,800 --> 02:05:05,880
Speaker 6: I'm sure our next guest is feeling that anticipation and more.

2778
02:05:06,960 --> 02:05:09,960
Speaker 6: There's a program called Team Impact out there. It's a

2779
02:05:10,040 --> 02:05:14,520
Speaker 6: national nonprofit that pairs children that have serious illnesses with

2780
02:05:14,640 --> 02:05:18,320
Speaker 6: college athletic teams and they pair them up together and

2781
02:05:18,560 --> 02:05:23,400
Speaker 6: back in twenty twenty three, Drew Shausse was paired with Indiana.

2782
02:05:23,960 --> 02:05:25,960
Speaker 6: Drew lives with a hard condition. He's been matched with

2783
02:05:26,000 --> 02:05:28,360
Speaker 6: AU Football for a couple of years now. He's familiar

2784
02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:31,879
Speaker 6: with the team. He's been inspiring him with his presence

2785
02:05:31,920 --> 02:05:34,080
Speaker 6: around their program. He saw a video where they're all

2786
02:05:34,560 --> 02:05:36,840
Speaker 6: giving him a shout out earlier this week. He joins

2787
02:05:36,920 --> 02:05:40,560
Speaker 6: us now on the Payless Liquors hotline, Drew, good morning,

2788
02:05:41,120 --> 02:05:43,120
Speaker 6: what's this day like for you?

2789
02:05:43,200 --> 02:05:43,800
Speaker 5: My friend?

2790
02:05:45,040 --> 02:05:49,560
Speaker 19: Okay, I would imagine on a scale one to one hundred,

2791
02:05:49,600 --> 02:05:56,440
Speaker 19: where's your excitement right now, probably pretty high on that

2792
02:05:56,720 --> 02:05:57,760
Speaker 19: K one hundred.

2793
02:05:57,920 --> 02:06:01,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, I bet so, Drew. I love it.

2794
02:06:01,120 --> 02:06:05,200
Speaker 4: Congrats, I'm going to the game tonight. Did I hear correctly?

2795
02:06:05,320 --> 02:06:08,840
Speaker 4: Did you get a video from Fernando Mendoza inviting you

2796
02:06:08,880 --> 02:06:10,200
Speaker 4: to tonight's national title?

2797
02:06:11,320 --> 02:06:12,600
Speaker 6: Yeah?

2798
02:06:12,680 --> 02:06:14,920
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go out on a limb as Fernando Mendoza,

2799
02:06:14,960 --> 02:06:16,520
Speaker 4: your favorite IU football player.

2800
02:06:17,560 --> 02:06:19,120
Speaker 13: Yeah?

2801
02:06:19,200 --> 02:06:21,360
Speaker 4: And did I also hear that the Miami Dolphins are

2802
02:06:21,360 --> 02:06:23,560
Speaker 4: your favorite football team and this game happens to be

2803
02:06:23,560 --> 02:06:24,840
Speaker 4: in the Dolphins stadium tonight?

2804
02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:26,240
Speaker 15: Yeah?

2805
02:06:26,960 --> 02:06:31,160
Speaker 10: How about that trifector right there? That a trifecta right there.

2806
02:06:31,200 --> 02:06:31,960
Speaker 4: I love it, Drew.

2807
02:06:32,560 --> 02:06:36,160
Speaker 11: Well, Drew, I have one more, maybe more serious question

2808
02:06:36,280 --> 02:06:36,640
Speaker 11: for you.

2809
02:06:37,280 --> 02:06:37,520
Speaker 13: Now.

2810
02:06:37,600 --> 02:06:40,600
Speaker 11: I know I you and Mendoza they have a lot

2811
02:06:40,640 --> 02:06:41,560
Speaker 11: of talent. They're loaded.

2812
02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:43,440
Speaker 10: But if they need some backup, can they.

2813
02:06:43,360 --> 02:06:45,120
Speaker 11: Call you out of the stands to get out there

2814
02:06:45,160 --> 02:06:48,040
Speaker 11: and make some plays?

2815
02:06:49,200 --> 02:06:49,720
Speaker 13: Yeah?

2816
02:06:49,840 --> 02:06:52,760
Speaker 10: There we go. I I like it.

2817
02:06:52,800 --> 02:06:54,680
Speaker 6: All right. Well, we're excited to talk to you, We're

2818
02:06:54,680 --> 02:06:56,560
Speaker 6: excited to have you on. I know you're excited to

2819
02:06:56,600 --> 02:06:59,680
Speaker 6: be in Miami. What do you think the score will

2820
02:06:59,720 --> 02:07:00,400
Speaker 6: beat tonight?

2821
02:07:01,840 --> 02:07:04,880
Speaker 14: You're fifty sho.

2822
02:07:06,440 --> 02:07:07,040
Speaker 4: James boy?

2823
02:07:07,160 --> 02:07:10,720
Speaker 11: Take off the belt over there, you saying, Michael room

2824
02:07:10,760 --> 02:07:13,320
Speaker 11: but getting a little of that medicine later on tonight.

2825
02:07:13,360 --> 02:07:15,400
Speaker 10: Well, Drew, I lucked that prediction. That'll make everyone around

2826
02:07:15,400 --> 02:07:16,400
Speaker 10: here pretty happy.

2827
02:07:17,080 --> 02:07:19,320
Speaker 4: Hey, hey, Drew, before we let you go, can we

2828
02:07:19,320 --> 02:07:21,080
Speaker 4: get a whoo who who's yours?

2829
02:07:21,120 --> 02:07:21,400
Speaker 14: Out of you?

2830
02:07:24,440 --> 02:07:30,400
Speaker 6: There we go, Drew shouts, enjoy the game tonight.

2831
02:07:30,440 --> 02:07:33,080
Speaker 5: We're excited for you. We're excited to watch the game.

2832
02:07:33,560 --> 02:07:35,800
Speaker 6: Have the best time of your life this evening, and

2833
02:07:35,800 --> 02:07:39,960
Speaker 6: we hope to talk to you soon. Okay, okay, all right, buddy,

2834
02:07:40,040 --> 02:07:42,440
Speaker 6: have a good one. Ten year old Drew Shause, who

2835
02:07:42,520 --> 02:07:45,400
Speaker 6: was paired up with Indiana. He's been paired with him.

2836
02:07:45,400 --> 02:07:47,600
Speaker 6: He might be their lucky good luck charm because since

2837
02:07:47,600 --> 02:07:49,240
Speaker 6: he came around, everything's been on the rise.

2838
02:07:49,360 --> 02:07:52,920
Speaker 4: Look at that's right there. Mendoza Signetti shouts, right, I

2839
02:07:53,040 --> 02:07:54,760
Speaker 4: like it six to nothing.

2840
02:07:56,560 --> 02:07:58,160
Speaker 10: Man, almost almost say.

2841
02:07:58,200 --> 02:08:00,360
Speaker 11: I can't say, well, we usually say on the air,

2842
02:08:01,440 --> 02:08:04,120
Speaker 11: but I was thinking, oh, belt ass right there, man,

2843
02:08:04,120 --> 02:08:05,280
Speaker 11: Oh my goodness, do we.

2844
02:08:05,240 --> 02:08:08,600
Speaker 6: Make a crying Jordan theme for Michael Irvin if that happens.

2845
02:08:08,320 --> 02:08:12,320
Speaker 10: Today, probably, honestly, that would be taking.

2846
02:08:12,160 --> 02:08:14,040
Speaker 4: Us bell to Steven Holder in the sands.

2847
02:08:15,000 --> 02:08:17,680
Speaker 11: Honestly, that that have to be not a huge reason

2848
02:08:17,720 --> 02:08:20,600
Speaker 11: why you want to win, but on the scale of pettiness,

2849
02:08:20,680 --> 02:08:23,000
Speaker 11: that's right up there. If I you wins this game,

2850
02:08:23,280 --> 02:08:25,720
Speaker 11: somebody get a camera on Michael Irvin, Mark you.

2851
02:08:25,880 --> 02:08:31,200
Speaker 4: I've butchered it before, Ada Wally, thank you. He will

2852
02:08:31,200 --> 02:08:33,440
Speaker 4: be the honoreary captain. Did I see correctly, friend Yema

2853
02:08:33,480 --> 02:08:34,720
Speaker 4: tonight he's in the hype video.

2854
02:08:34,960 --> 02:08:35,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2855
02:08:35,360 --> 02:08:36,920
Speaker 4: And for those that have missed it, he's been all

2856
02:08:36,960 --> 02:08:39,880
Speaker 4: with j mv here. I think twice now throughout this

2857
02:08:39,920 --> 02:08:43,720
Speaker 4: playoff run. That man brings some intensity. So I think

2858
02:08:43,760 --> 02:08:45,880
Speaker 4: if you need anybody to look opposite ray Lewis and

2859
02:08:45,920 --> 02:08:48,839
Speaker 4: Midfield tonight or whoever Miami's gonna throw out there, Greg Olsen,

2860
02:08:49,160 --> 02:08:51,640
Speaker 4: you know, whoever the dolt or whoever the Hurricanes have.

2861
02:08:52,240 --> 02:08:54,720
Speaker 6: I like that one thing about Hurricanes though. Man, they

2862
02:08:54,720 --> 02:08:56,560
Speaker 6: got a lot of folks to choose from. Though, just

2863
02:08:56,640 --> 02:08:59,040
Speaker 6: take a look at those teams in the early two folks.

2864
02:08:58,760 --> 02:08:59,680
Speaker 4: At rock Old Jackets.

2865
02:09:00,240 --> 02:09:02,160
Speaker 10: Them guys ain't out there playing tonight.

2866
02:09:02,280 --> 02:09:03,680
Speaker 5: They will not be out there tonight.

2867
02:09:03,840 --> 02:09:06,960
Speaker 6: All right, let's get our last predictions before the game

2868
02:09:07,040 --> 02:09:09,120
Speaker 6: comes your way tonight. Mark, I'm gonna start with you

2869
02:09:09,160 --> 02:09:11,920
Speaker 6: back there in the enclosed booth.

2870
02:09:12,080 --> 02:09:14,360
Speaker 12: Whom I to deny what Drew just said, fifty six nothing.

2871
02:09:15,120 --> 02:09:19,520
Speaker 11: I like it, respect I'm gonna go thirty three twenty

2872
02:09:19,800 --> 02:09:22,120
Speaker 11: A you.

2873
02:09:21,200 --> 02:09:24,920
Speaker 4: Kevin, I'll go twenty seven to twenty three. I think

2874
02:09:25,000 --> 02:09:28,640
Speaker 4: Miami's crazy enough to do some things that could potentially

2875
02:09:29,160 --> 02:09:31,080
Speaker 4: keep this a game. I don't know why. I'm all

2876
02:09:31,080 --> 02:09:33,600
Speaker 4: of a sudden I thought they'd roll Alabama in Oregon.

2877
02:09:33,600 --> 02:09:36,120
Speaker 4: I don't know if maybe it's just been too long

2878
02:09:36,160 --> 02:09:38,960
Speaker 4: to talk about this game, but I don't know. Weird

2879
02:09:39,000 --> 02:09:40,800
Speaker 4: things can happen in the championship game. I'll say it's

2880
02:09:40,800 --> 02:09:42,120
Speaker 4: a little bit more competitive than most.

2881
02:09:42,240 --> 02:09:44,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm gonna go twenty seven twenty I think that's

2882
02:09:44,560 --> 02:09:45,720
Speaker 6: seven and a half points spread.

2883
02:09:45,720 --> 02:09:46,920
Speaker 5: It's just about right.

2884
02:09:47,280 --> 02:09:49,000
Speaker 6: And I also think the over under is just about right,

2885
02:09:49,040 --> 02:09:51,000
Speaker 6: which means I'll probably stay away from both games. I

2886
02:09:51,040 --> 02:09:53,320
Speaker 6: don't know. Maybe maybe I'll do a parlay and take both.

2887
02:09:53,320 --> 02:09:56,520
Speaker 6: I'll take the over in Indiana to cover, but no,

2888
02:09:57,000 --> 02:09:58,280
Speaker 6: that makes it twenty eight to twenty.

2889
02:09:58,320 --> 02:09:59,800
Speaker 5: Then I'll make it twenty eight twenty marks.

2890
02:10:00,040 --> 02:10:01,600
Speaker 12: I could do that, all right, change your mind, Like

2891
02:10:01,640 --> 02:10:05,280
Speaker 12: eight different times I was trying to follow, I knew

2892
02:10:05,280 --> 02:10:05,760
Speaker 12: where I was.

2893
02:10:05,880 --> 02:10:09,960
Speaker 6: Mostly it was just about granularly getting it locked down there. Okay,

2894
02:10:10,200 --> 02:10:12,680
Speaker 6: lots of ways you can consume this football game tonight

2895
02:10:13,000 --> 02:10:15,320
Speaker 6: if you're just joining us, Kevin, if you want, there's

2896
02:10:15,360 --> 02:10:18,280
Speaker 6: a way you can easily pair Don Fisher's voice with

2897
02:10:18,400 --> 02:10:19,760
Speaker 6: the TV broadcast tonight.

2898
02:10:19,840 --> 02:10:23,360
Speaker 4: Right, Yes, we've mentioned about the show today ESPN on

2899
02:10:23,400 --> 02:10:26,480
Speaker 4: their alternate channels, via their app, via their stream you

2900
02:10:26,560 --> 02:10:30,320
Speaker 4: do have a hometown radio option, so it will be

2901
02:10:30,360 --> 02:10:33,760
Speaker 4: the picture obviously what's happening in the actual game SYNCD

2902
02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:37,200
Speaker 4: up with Don Fisher, Buck John Harrican company. So I

2903
02:10:37,240 --> 02:10:39,200
Speaker 4: think it's a really cool feature they do here with

2904
02:10:39,200 --> 02:10:42,240
Speaker 4: these alternate broadcasts. So check out the ESPN app, check

2905
02:10:42,240 --> 02:10:45,800
Speaker 4: out the ESPN streaming service for that that is available

2906
02:10:46,160 --> 02:10:48,200
Speaker 4: to you. And for those who missed it from a

2907
