Greetings from the 0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:06.800 original Montgomery in home of the world's greatest rips. Welcome 0:00:06.800 --> 0:00:10.400 to the Scott Saderfield Radio Show. I'm Dan Horde, along 0:00:10.400 --> 0:00:12.719 with the star of the show, the head coach of 0:00:12.760 --> 0:00:16.480 the number seventeen team in the country. It's here at 0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:23.000 Fort Scott Sadderfield. Had a big game coming up this week, 0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:26.400 a huge spotlight. The seventeenth rank Bearcats hitting the road 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:30.200 to take on number twenty four Utah. ESPN's College Game 0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:32.159 Day is going to be there in Salt Lake City. 0:00:32.240 --> 0:00:35.280 It's a difficult game, but it's a fantastic opportunity. 0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:38.920 Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah, it will be a difficult game. 0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:41.280 I think this is this team's probably one of the 0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:43.920 more complete teams that we have played so far this year. 0:00:44.520 --> 0:00:46.640 And you gotta fly all the way across the country, 0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:49.040 you know, and play at a late hour, you know, 0:00:49.320 --> 0:00:52.000 ten fifteen or ten twenty whatever it is at night Eastern, 0:00:53.040 --> 0:00:55.240 and you know, in a hostile environment. You know, I've 0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:57.920 never played a game there, but everything we were hearing 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:01.960 is loud. It's you know, great environment, game day environment. 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:03.960 So yeah, well we're looking forward toward our guys are 0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:07.640 eager and hungry and excited for another opportunity to go 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:08.600 out and show what we're made of. 0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:12.720 We visited yesterday. I asked you about watching Utah's tape 0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.680 from their game last week against Colorado. It sounded like 0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.000 you were sick to your stomach watching how good they were. 0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.840 More than four hundred rushing yards in that game. At halftime, 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:25.000 it was forty three to nothing, and the halftime yardedge 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:29.919 was three ninety eight for Utah minus eighteen for Colorado. 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.160 That was one of the more dominant performances I've seen. 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.000 I don't know if I've ever seen that stat line 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:37.160 at halftime where you have negative eighteen yards and almost 0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:40.880 four hundred yards. I mean, that is pure domination. Yeah, 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:42.479 it was ugly early. 0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:43.480 That was a game. 0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:45.680 It was on late, I guess Saturday night, and so 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:48.160 I watched a little bit of it, and man, second play, 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:49.840 I think you know, and they started a true freshman 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:51.080 quarterback and second. 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:52.640 Play goes sixty three yards for a touchdown. 0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.800 They started blitzing Colorado and they I don't think they 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:56.760 stopped the whole game. 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:57.920 I mean they were in the backfield. 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:02.680 So very impressive performance's out of Utah and you know, 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:04.800 we got a lot of respect for that their program. 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:08.200 You know, Kyle Whittingham's been there thirty two years at 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:12.080 one place that has unheard of, and twenty one years 0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:15.200 as a head coach now, and so you know, he's 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:18.680 done a marvelous job there has you know, great culture 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:20.800 year in and year out. They're good, their defense is 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.920 always good. You know, last year for them was a 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:27.320 down year offenially, we're not that good, and went out 0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:29.399 and hired a new coordinator and got a new quarterback 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:31.320 and it really really vitalized the program. 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:32.840 When they're playing really good right. 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:35.639 Now, he's only had three losing seasons in twenty one. 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:37.800 Well this is the twenty first, so in the previous 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.440 twenty years, last year was one of them. And again 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:43.400 moving into the Big twelve, it's difficult in year one 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:45.880 for everybody that's tried to do it, and it was 0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:47.399 a challenge for Utah last year. 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.600 Yeah, yeah, it was, you know, but I think for them, 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:51.960 they you know, they still were in so a lot 0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:55.680 of those games, had injuries at quarterback last year. You know, 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:57.560 some kind of shuffled a lot of guys around. I 0:02:57.560 --> 0:02:59.120 think it was for them, and the off season was 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.679 to go out. Let's go out and find an identity 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:04.640 for offense. And so they hired the offensive coordinator, which 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:06.919 brought his quarterback. I think it was New Mexico, correct 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:08.600 where they were at, and they put up some big 0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:12.320 numbers there. You know, more of a running style offense. 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:13.880 You're going to see the quarterback that's going to be 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:17.000 running with a lot of Q runs, trying to split 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.840 the defense in half and really you know, manipulate that 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:21.600 and then they're going to play action you and take 0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:24.600 the take shots down the field. They're very efficient, you know, 0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:26.640 really quite honestly. I mean, they'd look a lot like 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:29.920 us of what they do. They're efficient in the red zone, 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:31.960 they take care of the football, they play good defense, 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.440 they can run and throw, you know, so I think 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:37.600 it very sound in the special team. So to me, 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.880 the very similar type teams, and both teams I think 0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:42.760 are very physical, you know. I think they get their 0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:45.600 pride themselves and being a physical team and playing hard, 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:47.960 and I think that's what we do as well. 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.600 Let's talk about what your team did last week in 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:52.680 the win over Baylor, a twenty one point win over 0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.080 a very good team, a team that was number one 0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:57.720 in passing yards in the country going in averaging more 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.240 than three hundred and thirty passing yards a game, held 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:03.480 him till one thirty seven. That was remarkable. 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:05.320 How did you do that? That was a great job. 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.800 Well, I think, you know, I think first of all, 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.600 just coach Fighten his staffed did a great job, you know, 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.280 going getting in on Sunday and really dissecting what they're 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:17.200 trying to do offensively, uh, Sunday Monday, putting together a 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.960 great game plan, and then I'll be implementing that game 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:20.800 plan with our guys. 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:22.599 Our guys. Man did a great job on you know, 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:23.680 throughout the week of. 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:25.480 Putting that game plan in, and a lot of it 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:27.720 was not you know, listen, we got to tighten up coverage, 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:29.520 we got to play some different things, we played some 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.320 more man uh, and the coverage was a lot more tighter. 0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:34.520 I thought that in this game, you know. 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.720 And then also, you know, this quarterback wasn't a running 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:38.640 he was not a running quarterback, so that there's some 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:41.680 differences there. So you can put some more guys, you know, 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.680 into an under coverages and not have to worry about 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:45.960 the Q run like we did. 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:46.279 You know. 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.160 Basically the two previous games where the quarterbacks rushed for 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.080 over one hundred yards, so it's a. 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:52.400 Different type of game plan. 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:54.720 But I thought they played out standing on defense and 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.760 then you know, also creating two turnovers as well to 0:04:57.800 --> 0:04:59.480 really blow that game open in the fourth quarter. 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:04.880 So UC's video department puts out incredible content every week. 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.000 These Clifton cut switch is an inside look at the game, 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:11.520 are just fantastic. I want to play a little snippet 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:15.200 from the most recent one. This is audio of you 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:19.960 speaking to the team on Friday night. Let's listen in. 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:23.559 You gotta put your man in that phone booth. 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:27.520 It's uncomfortable in there, all right, it's very uncomfortable. 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.080 They don't want to play in the phone booth because 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:32.479 in the phone booth and you gotta where to go. 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:34.640 You put your man in the phone booth. 0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:37.040 You know. Back, I'll play wide receiver. If I'm a 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:38.320 one has corner, he's in full booth. 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:39.159 I'll put him in a phone booth. 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:43.400 They want to be out here, free space, basketball on grass. 0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:46.440 Put him in a phone booth, all right, You put 0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:50.440 him in a phone booth. Successfully on Saturday. The question 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:54.000 is to eighteen to twenty two year old kids know 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:54.720 what a phone. 0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:55.800 Booth is, probably not. 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:01.080 Yeah, we will have a couple of players here at 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:02.640 the bottom of the hour week and find. 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.760 Out we need to ask them. Yeah, that's whole Dan. 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:06.760 On Monday, I was like, you know, after I talked 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:08.520 to the team about that, when I left the room, 0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:09.880 I was thinking to myself, I don't even know if 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.120 they know what a phone booth is. That I hope 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:14.760 they did. I hope they got the point. I think 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:15.440 they got the point. 0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:15.720 You know. 0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:17.960 The point is, you know, you're in a tight space 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.640 and we're gonna physically whip you, and you got nowhere 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:22.960 to go. You can't hide, you can't run away. We're 0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:25.280 gonna make you like it. And that's just really a 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:28.520 mindset and an attitude. And I thought our guys did 0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:30.839 a great job with that. And you think about an 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:32.839 offensive line, and we've been talking about our OH line 0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:36.680 a lot this year. Well, we implemented the wheel against 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:38.640 that defensive line to rush for two hundred and sixty 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:40.960 five yards. We had fifty carries in this game. We 0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:43.599 occupied the ball, we kept their offense off the field. 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:45.800 You know, But I did I think the same thing 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.479 with our defense. You know, we got after them up front, 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:50.400 you know, they had one big run. Other than that 0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:52.800 they did they couldn't run the football. And then I 0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:54.920 thought our dbs did a great job of being physical 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:56.800 and you know, roughing up their receivers and I think 0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:57.880 that was the key to the game. 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.200 What bathroom stall were is that just too. 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:04.080 That's a tight that's a tight you know tight, that's 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.520 tight quarters. I phone boots is a lot tighter, I 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.520 mean than a bathroom. But yeah, that would have worked. 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:12.440 Yeah, for some reason, bathroom stall, it might be the 0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:13.080 wrong meaning. 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:15.400 We'll skit that. So. 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:15.880 Uh. 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:19.080 You mentioned the rushing attack and it was balanced Brendan 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.840 Soresby at eighty five yards, taw Wee Walker at eighty four, 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:26.920 Evan Pryor had sixty six. Unfortunately, Evan limped off the 0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.360 field in the second half, and you said earlier today, 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.640 at least at this stage of the week, you're going 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:36.520 to list him as likely out with the hopes that 0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:38.600 maybe that will improve during the course of the week. 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:38.920 Yeah. 0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:41.440 Unfortunately he went out of the game there, you know, 0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:44.400 late in the game with a lower leg injury, and 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.360 you know, again he'll be listed as out, you know, 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:48.920 and obviously as we progress, we have a bye week 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.040 next week, you know, and we'll see how things work out. 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:54.240 But you certainly, but particularly at that position, you need 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:55.080 to be one hundred percent. 0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:56.600 I mean that that position, at running back. 0:07:56.600 --> 0:07:58.280 I mean you have to be running full speed when 0:07:58.480 --> 0:07:59.520 these guys are chasing you. 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:02.120 And he's a speed guy as it is. 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:05.240 You know, but I think, uh, you know, we'll see 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:07.119 and if you can't play, then we got some other guys. 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:08.360 I think, you know, opportunities. 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:09.880 You know, Manny Cove is a guy who's I think 0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:11.880 has played really well this year in our special teams. 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:14.000 He's on all four units. He's our punk return guy, 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:16.440 so he's been playing. You know, had a big punk 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.440 return against Kansas, you know, they got called back. 0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:20.680 He scored I. 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.119 Think against who was a Baylor we scored, or Central 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:24.280 Florida he scored two weeks ago. 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.280 No oh, Oklahoma State touchdown, Yeah, final touchdown there. 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.840 So he's got some he's got some juice and I 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:31.800 think he can do some great things for us. Of course, 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.960 you know, Tywee's a guy who could you know, increase 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:36.839 his carriages as well? You know, tywise two hundred and 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:38.960 twenty pounds. We haven't I don't even know what the 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.160 most we've allowed him to carry this year. But I 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:42.960 mean he certainly could be a guy who could up 0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:46.000 his carries if need be. Uh, we got confidence in 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.280 our in our guys that that will be playing as well. 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:49.920 You know some of the other guys you got chance 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:52.960 Williams Zion's and a true freshman. 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:54.320 And I think, man, he's very talented. 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.200 So so there are some other guys I think they 0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:57.160 could potentially play. 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:00.000 All right, we've got a packed house of Bearcat fans. 0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:02.960 We want to open up questions to the Bearcat fans 0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:04.560 who are with us this evening, So we'll take a 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:06.800 time out and come back with questions from the audience 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:09.839 in just a moment. This is the Scott Saderfield Radio Show, 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:13.120 live from the original Montgomery in on seven hundred WLW. 0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:17.679 Second and goal from the one source be hands it off. 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:21.160 Tawie Walker boats is off a defender and goes into 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:25.440 the end zone for a Bearcat touchdown, one of three 0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:28.800 rushing touchdowns for Cincinnati last week and a twenty one 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:32.800 point win over the Baylor bear cincinnati seventh consecutive victory. 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.200 The Bearcats are tied for first in the Big Twelve 0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:39.040 with BYU and UC has climbed to number seventeen in 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.640 the country. Our friend John Daniel is here with the 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:43.920 wireless mike. It is time to take questions from the 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:47.680 audience for coach sat Brian. You're up first, coach. 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.760 I remember I think it was last was last year's 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:53.120 lights first year or was it? 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:54.000 Okay? 0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:58.160 So the defense progressed, you know, learning a news system, 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.840 and you started to see the different says later in 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:02.920 the year, and I feel like we kind of saw 0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:06.120 that against Baylor in the sense that you were pressing more, 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:07.040 you weren't playing off. 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:08.720 How much of that is. 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.720 Just becoming more comfortable and how much of that is 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:16.439 knowing that you might need to disrupt what that pass 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:17.040 offense is. 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:20.800 Yeah, I think probably just trying to disrupt their their rhythm, 0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:23.720 their pass offense. I think, you know, their quarterback, I thought, 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.000 you know, obviously was you know, one of the better 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:28.840 passing quarterbacks in the country, and they leaned on it 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:31.680 a lot. You know, he was throwing it around fifty 0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:33.480 times a game, you know, and so we had. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:34.400 To show on some different looks. 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.439 We had to you know, walk guys up and sometimes 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:39.319 you know, I think, you know, you get a little handsy. 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.000 We've got a few more PI calls against us in 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:45.240 the secondary. But you know, but I thought we were aggressive, 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.280 which I think was better for us in this game, 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:51.160 you know, and then utilizing some different coverage techniques and 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:53.480 it wasn't just the same coverages. I think we played 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:56.360 a lot of different things covered, two, covered, three man, free, 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:58.000 all the different type coverages. 0:10:58.000 --> 0:10:59.000 And obviously it. 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:00.800 Rattled the quarterback a little, but he had some errant 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:04.240 throws there and some tighter windows and not just the 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.200 free access throws Claude. 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:12.480 I just wondered on that pass interference in the end 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:15.160 zone where it looked like it was so far out 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:18.760 of bounds freem Abdul Jabbar couldn't have caught it. What 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.640 was What was what the official say to you on that? 0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:26.560 Yeah, I mean you would think you'd use some common sense. 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:28.440 You know, we talk about this every week. I think 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:30.920 with that ball looked like it was way over everybody's 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:33.280 head and out of bounds, and uh, you know what 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:35.600 they say is that, well, you know, had he not 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:38.040 the defender had not you know, been there to grab him, 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:39.679 but he might could have jumped up and caught it, 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:42.560 you know. So that's what they say, Yeah, that's what 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.560 they say, and I'm thinking, man, I don't know what 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:46.920 what y'all are looking at, but it's. 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:50.240 It's it's it's uh. 0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:51.200 That's what they say, and that's a judgment call, and 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.800 you know, I can argue it, but I'm not gonna 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:55.679 win that argument unfortunately. 0:11:56.400 --> 0:11:59.360 Victor wembin Yama, by the way, is the current reference 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:02.920 for a really tall person who couldn't possibly get to 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:07.000 the throat. Keith Hi, Dan High coach. 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:11.760 I didn't get to see any of Utah's destruction of Colorado, 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:14.880 but the stats speak for themselves. Are they more of 0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:16.880 a team that's just gonna line it up and try 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:18.439 to drive it right down your throat? 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.160 Or they're gonna try to do some misdirection spreads? 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:21.520 You out? 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:24.440 What type of thing are you looking to defend this Saturday? 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:27.080 Yeah, I mean they certainly want to run the football, 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.520 that that's their mo but they will throw it. I 0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:31.400 think they We have to look at the stats, but 0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:33.320 I think they have around the same number of pass 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:36.040 attempts that we do. You know, so how many times 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:37.960 we're throwing a game? That's kind of what they've been doing. 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.120 So they will throw the football, you know, throwing you know, 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.200 several double digit touchdown passes. 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:45.320 But they want to try to manipulate you. 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:47.440 They'll do they'll do some different spread you out, run 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.800 some motions, pull guards and tackles, and just. 0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:52.360 Try to misdirection you in a running game. 0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:54.160 And then all of a sudden, they're gonna pull it 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:56.000 and throw it down the field when you're you know, 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:58.080 bringing all your safeties up to stop the run. So 0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:01.920 it's just, well, does offense of what they do. You 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:03.800 have to stop the run. Because you don't stop the run, 0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:05.400 it'll be a long day for you. And so we're 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:08.200 gonna have to, you know, commit guys down close to 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:09.680 the box to be able to stop that run and 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:13.120 get them down fundamentally sound, have good eye control. I mean, 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:16.559 all these different things, they're gonna present much different problems 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:20.800 for our defense than say Baylor of last week fellas. 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:23.960 Coach, other than the fact that we have to travel 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:27.240 out to Utah. It's a ten to fifteen kickoff, which 0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:30.360 is better than a ten o'clock ten thirty kind of kickoff, 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:34.920 and it's in a high altitude. Utah is ranked, and 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:39.440 it's college game day. What excites you about this game 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:39.920 for us? 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.120 Well, I mean, just another opportunity in the Big Twelve 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:48.320 and you're playing a ranked team again. You know, we 0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:50.320 beat Alway State when they were ranked. You're playing another 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:53.400 ranked team here. You know, our goal is to go 0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:55.959 you get to Dallas and play for a Big twelve championship, 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:57.640 you know, and we've you know, we've done a really 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:59.440 good job in the first five games, and now we 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:00.920 have four lets up and this is the next one 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:03.880 on the schedule. You know, we're excited about our guys 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.400 are They've worked extremely hard to put themselves in this 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:09.000 position at this time of year. You know, you're sitting 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:11.480 here going into our ninth game and we're still in 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:13.800 a great position to go play for a Big twelve championship. 0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:16.319 So that's that's what's exciting about this opportunity, and we're 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:17.280 gonna take advantage of it. 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:23.160 Wait, coach, you know Baylor came in with the number 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:28.840 one rank passing offense in the country. Were you surprised 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:33.080 that they came out We're gonna run against you. I mean, 0:14:33.800 --> 0:14:36.520 did they look at films on the Oklahoma State game 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:41.440 and think, you know, we can just pound it well 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:45.360 and in the second half we were up big. I 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:48.480 thought him they're gonna came out slinging it and they 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:49.600 come out and handed. 0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:50.440 It and run it. Yeah. 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:52.640 Well, I think it was interesting throughout the week or 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:55.200 early in the week at coach Horanda's press conference, they 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:57.480 mentioned about we're at our best when we can run 0:14:57.520 --> 0:15:00.440 the football, and so I think they came in, listen, 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:03.320 let's try to establish some sort of run, create a 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:06.240 little bit of balance for ourselves on offense, you know. 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:08.240 But I think our guys did a great job of. 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.120 Really kind of shutting that down, and then they had 0:15:10.120 --> 0:15:13.120 to resort more to the pass. Like I said before, 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:16.800 they broke off one run on a long run. We 0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:18.560 were getting ready to bring pressure from the field, they 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:20.120 hit it in the boundary. That was about it really 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:22.120 in the running game. There was nothing consistent in the 0:15:22.160 --> 0:15:22.880 running game. 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:24.400 For them, you know. 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:26.480 And I thought our guys guys did a really good job. 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:28.240 We did a little bit more of the four man 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:31.000 front this game, walking up our linebacker on the edge 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:33.000 to have four guys right there to help with stop 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.360 that run. But again, I thought it was a good 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:38.480 plan by our guys, our defensive staff and man obviously 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:39.520 did a great job with that. 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:44.680 Who's next, I got a question for you as far 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:46.240 as traveling is concerned. 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:49.680 When you're playing at a ten to fifteen game, when 0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:51.800 do you go out there and when do you come home? 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.480 I mean do Yeah, you know, the game's not over 0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:57.480 till late, so you spend the night there. 0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:01.400 No, we don't, so we're you know, it's interesting you 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:06.280 bring this up there. There's there's there's been some obviously 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:08.680 some studies because now ACC is having to have these 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:10.760 same games, the big ten are having these same type 0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:13.480 games where you're traveling east coast to west coast and 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:16.240 the west coast to east coast, and so this year 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:19.240 I've seen more teams actually go out a day early. 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:21.680 They've gone out on Thursday to try to get acclimated 0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:22.760 to the time change. 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:24.880 We're going out on Friday. 0:16:24.960 --> 0:16:27.640 We're pushing it back leaven later on Friday, you know, 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:29.920 trying to push that thing back on Friday. Once we 0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:32.280 get there, stay up a little bit later Saturday. We're 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:34.160 gonna sleep in a little bit longer, so you know, 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:36.280 try to sleep in till you know, nine thirty or 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:37.760 ten on Saturday, since it is going to be a 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:41.320 late kickoff. And you know, it's like, all right, what 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:44.240 do you do all day. Well, you know, we eat 0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:48.600 a lot. You know, well there's three big meals and 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:50.640 some snacks. I mean, I'm like, I look at our schedules, 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:52.520 like every two and a half hours. I mean, my gosh, 0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:55.080 I can't eat this much. But but we gotta make 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:57.400 sure we're eating. We eat a lot of food and hydrate. 0:16:57.440 --> 0:16:59.280 But also we'll do some walk throughs. I think it's 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:01.360 about three walked through we'll get them off their feet, 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:03.800 you know. But once it gets to about four hours 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:07.080 before kickoff, it's the same routine we do for every game. 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.320 It doesn't matter. Yeah, pregame meal, we have another walk through, 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:11.200 and then. 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:12.199 We go on the bus and we head to the 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:15.320 stadium about two hours and fifteen minutes prior to kick Well, 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:17.639 after the game, we were always get back home, so 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:19.760 you know, no matter when, whenever this game is over, 0:17:20.080 --> 0:17:22.080 we'll pack up. Takes about an hour, hour and a half. 0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:23.560 We'll get on that plane and we'll head back. I 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:25.960 think we're supposed to arrive, you know, between six and 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:29.640 six thirty on Sunday morning. Yeah, so it's it's yes, 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:31.359 what time we'll get home, so we'll maybe you know, 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:33.800 it's a long day, fortunately, for us. We have a 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:35.800 bye week the Fall League, so we'll we'll probably take 0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:37.760 a Sunday off, We'll rest on Sunday and then you know, 0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:40.280 get back in on Monday for the bye week practices. 0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:43.120 But it's a difficult trip. But I do think it's 0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:44.080 more difficult on. 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:44.600 The back end. 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:46.600 You know, if we had another game the very next week, 0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:48.760 that that would be hard because you're gonna feel that effect. 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:51.240 But since we have a bye week, I think that's 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:52.760 that's certainly gonna have benefit us. 0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:55.800 I like to make a comment to Dingle, was I 0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:57.760 thought he played tremendously. 0:17:58.160 --> 0:17:59.960 Yeah, I thought he played really well. You know, Dingle, 0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:01.240 we had him all over the field. He was one 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:02.600 of the guys I was talking about. We walked up 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:04.600 on the line of scrimmage. You know, he's able to 0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:07.840 call some problems there in the backfield, and I thought 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:10.080 he had an excellent game, one of his better games, 0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:11.320 you know, of the season. 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:21.840 Just a curious question, So how did Brendan handle being called. 0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:22.960 Sorely in a sudden. 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:28.160 For those who don't get the reference, Nick Saban did 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:32.560 a feature on Brendan Soresby on College Game Day last 0:18:32.600 --> 0:18:34.600 week and repeatedly referred to him as sorely. 0:18:34.720 --> 0:18:36.399 Yeah, it was funny. I was actually watching it. 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:38.960 I was like, you know what he's saying, and and 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:42.760 mcphiel or Pat McAfee and uh and Curt Heirstbry are 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:44.520 both looking and kind of laughing there. 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:45.439 Like over there giggling, you know. 0:18:45.560 --> 0:18:47.960 And and then Matt and Pat and made a comment 0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:49.360 about it right after he did that. 0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:51.520 But uh, I mean he took it all in stride. 0:18:51.520 --> 0:18:52.920 I mean it was he thought it was funny. 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:56.240 We were joking with him too, you know, like, you know, 0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:59.880 you're gonna come out here and play like Soorsby or McSorley. 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:02.480 How are you gonna play here? You know he's but 0:19:02.520 --> 0:19:03.200 he took it a strike. 0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:06.520 We still joke about it today and hopefully somebody gives 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:07.280 coach Saban. 0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:08.639 The heads up of how to pronounce it this week. 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:16.119 Rick Saban is an excellent coach. Any any more questions 0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:18.480 for Coach Saderfield, Yes, we've got some over here. 0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:22.760 There's there's something to be said about the culture and 0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:26.560 leadership of his team. I know, coming in here in 0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:30.159 a shift and change and it takes time to do that. 0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:31.840 Can you just kind of speak a little bit to. 0:19:31.840 --> 0:19:35.560 That journey to you know where that has come from, 0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:37.919 because it just feels like it's just different. You know, 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:40.080 this year, these guys have just really bonded. You have 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:44.040 great leadership, you know, on and off the field. 0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:46.840 Yeah, I mean, you know, we probably don't have enough 0:19:46.840 --> 0:19:49.159 time for for all that. I mean, you know, for 0:19:49.240 --> 0:19:52.000 what happened when we first got here to where we 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:52.600 are right now. 0:19:52.800 --> 0:19:54.560 It's night and day, I mean quite honestly. 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:57.200 And you know, anytime you make a coach and change, 0:19:57.200 --> 0:19:59.040 and we're seeing a lot of those, that's gonna happen 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.439 this year. I mean, what is it ten or eleven? 0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:03.199 Are we not even November yet? Man, I don't know 0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:07.480 what's happening. But anytime that happens, you know, especially now 0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:09.240 with this portal, I mean, guys are leaving it. You know, 0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:10.760 you don't even know who's on your team, who's not 0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:13.359 on your team. There's so much unknown with the players 0:20:13.359 --> 0:20:14.800 and like who's gonna be the coach and all this 0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:17.159 and that, Well you know that happened here, you know, 0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:19.080 and when I first got here, and so you're trying 0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:20.879 to figure all that out. You're trying to recruit and 0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:23.680 almost that year is like a zero year. Because you 0:20:23.720 --> 0:20:25.159 just get here so late. It's hard to get the 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:27.040 players in here, and now you've got to get some 0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.359 portal guys in here. You're late on that. Well, then 0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:31.640 you go play your first season. We played our first. 0:20:31.440 --> 0:20:33.920 Season not in the American we're into Big twelve. 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:36.240 You were playing a lot of different teams in that 0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:38.680 Big twelve conference, and we learned a lot, which was 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:40.199 great for us, and then we were able to keep 0:20:40.200 --> 0:20:42.119 a lot of those guys and then, you know, we 0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:44.119 brought in a whole new crew the following year, and 0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:45.320 our team got better. 0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:48.520 They certainly got better, the culture got better. 0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:50.080 And then we were able to do that one more 0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:51.959 time and were able to keep a lot of those 0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:54.080 same guys again that had went through all those things 0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:56.520 that first year. They none of those guys had forgotten 0:20:56.720 --> 0:20:58.560 the last time we went to Oklahoma State, you know, 0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:01.640 the last time you know, Baylor came played us here. 0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:03.840 Like those guys still remember and they've told all these 0:21:03.840 --> 0:21:07.040 guys that are here what we went through. And I 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.640 think it's just built up to where we are right now. 0:21:09.800 --> 0:21:12.400 We have a bunch of great young people in that building, 0:21:12.640 --> 0:21:15.560 but we have great staff and we're all on the 0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:16.119 same page. 0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:17.560 I think that that is critical. 0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:20.199 We all you know hurt the same, we all you 0:21:20.240 --> 0:21:22.000 know are excited the same. 0:21:22.359 --> 0:21:23.439 It's just we're all together. 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:25.640 I think anytime you're all together like that, no matter 0:21:25.680 --> 0:21:28.040 what happens, negative or positive, you're able to stick together 0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:29.400 and you're gonna come out on the other side. 0:21:29.560 --> 0:21:30.359 So it's been good. 0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:34.560 Squeeze in one more quick question. I just want to say, 0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:39.200 go bear Cats. Yeah, all right, I like it. All right, 0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:41.399 we need to take a commercial break. We will go 0:21:41.440 --> 0:21:43.160 and do it. On that note. This is the Scott 0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:45.920 Sanderfield Radio Show. We are alive at the original Montgomery 0:21:46.000 --> 0:21:48.520 In home of the world's greatest rips, and we will 0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:51.760 meet two bear Cat players when we come back. On 0:21:51.800 --> 0:21:58.320 seven hundred wlb first and goal from the six. Soresby 0:21:58.359 --> 0:21:59.920 fakes the handoff, throws. 0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:05.959 Upside of the end zone, touchdown Cyrus Allen touchdown pass 0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:10.920 number nineteen for Brendan Soresby, and later in the game 0:22:10.920 --> 0:22:14.760 he threw touchdown pass number twenty. This year twenty touchdown passes, 0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:18.240 only one pick for the Bearcat quarterback. Cincinnati with a 0:22:18.280 --> 0:22:21.000 seven game winning streak heading into a big game on 0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:24.840 Saturday night against number twenty four Utah. 0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:27.159 All right, it's part of the show.

The middle safety 0:26:23.000 --> 0:26:25.160 is known as the star position. Both of you guys 0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:28.120 spend a lot of time playing that position, and it's 0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:32.879 a challenging one because it's really like safety slash linebacker. Right, 0:26:32.960 --> 0:26:35.960 You've got a lot of responsibilities. Jaikwan, Let's start with 0:26:36.000 --> 0:26:39.560 you describe what goes into playing the star position at Cincinnati. 0:26:39.720 --> 0:26:41.560 You gotta be a dB in the linebacker. 0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:47.960 You gotta not fitting the runs, playing coverage, read the defense. 0:26:48.080 --> 0:26:50.800 Like I want to say the quarterback of the defense, 0:26:50.880 --> 0:26:53.439 but it's up yeah, yeah, it's in self position in 0:26:53.400 --> 0:26:53.760 the place. 0:26:53.840 --> 0:26:57.000 So Antoine, same thing for you. 0:26:57.160 --> 0:26:59.120 Yeah, I mean, pretty much the same thing he just said. 0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:01.280 You know, we're I mean, don't really want to say 0:27:01.359 --> 0:27:03.000 quarterback of the defense, but I mean we kind of 0:27:03.000 --> 0:27:05.040 are in the way, you know, we're kind of just 0:27:05.080 --> 0:27:07.959 telling everyone just like just telling them like the signal 0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:10.800 or whatever, and you know, we gotta do a little 0:27:10.800 --> 0:27:12.800 bit of everything. We gotta fit the run, we gotta 0:27:13.320 --> 0:27:18.120 be able to cover. And you know, it's a really 0:27:18.119 --> 0:27:22.280 good mixture of both being able to tackle people, hit 0:27:22.320 --> 0:27:24.720 people and being able to cover. 0:27:25.200 --> 0:27:25.840 You know, get. 0:27:25.640 --> 0:27:30.440 Bbu's you know, that's that's quands thing right there.

Soresby fakes a handoff, running to the 0:31:31.840 --> 0:31:35.000 ten for five and high steps. 0:31:34.560 --> 0:31:39.480 His way into the end zone for a bear Cat touchdown. 0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:43.960 Let's hope that Brendan Soresby is doing that again frequently. 0:31:44.520 --> 0:31:46.959 On Saturday night in Salt Lake City, when the Bearcats 0:31:47.280 --> 0:31:50.320 look to knock off the twenty fourth rank Utah Utes, 0:31:50.440 --> 0:31:53.000 we are at the original Montgomery in with our special 0:31:53.040 --> 0:31:57.120 guests Antwine Peaks Junior, and Jaquan Sanks. We have some 0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.520 time for questions from the audience. Take it away. 0:32:01.080 --> 0:32:03.880 I was just wondering if like there was a certain 0:32:03.920 --> 0:32:09.160 way you guys prepared for environment like Utah, like zarre Away, 0:32:09.280 --> 0:32:12.080 you guys set up and like prepare for that. 0:32:13.200 --> 0:32:16.200 Yeah, I mean kind of today in the indoor facility, 0:32:16.720 --> 0:32:18.760 you know, they guy speakers all around the facility, so 0:32:18.800 --> 0:32:20.920 they were just playing a whole bunch of crowd noises 0:32:20.920 --> 0:32:24.160 in you know, it's a pretty tight space, I guess, 0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:26.800 but it just kind of echoes around, so you know, 0:32:26.840 --> 0:32:28.920 it gets pretty loud in there. So I guess that's 0:32:29.160 --> 0:32:30.959 that's how we were preparing for him. 0:32:31.040 --> 0:32:31.400 Right now. 0:32:32.080 --> 0:32:35.280 Your season opener was a Narrowhead Stadium against Nebraska. It 0:32:35.360 --> 0:32:39.320 was basically filled with Nebraska fans. Jakwan. Do you feel 0:32:39.360 --> 0:32:42.320 like that prepared you for any amount of noise that 0:32:42.400 --> 0:32:43.440 you could hear on Saturday? 0:32:43.560 --> 0:32:46.400 For sure, especially been in the NFL stadium we went 0:32:46.480 --> 0:32:49.200 in at the warm ups, I was I was looking 0:32:49.240 --> 0:32:50.760 at the crowd. I'm like, all right, it made lack 0:32:50.760 --> 0:32:53.160 of the NFL preseason game. It's not would be too bad. 0:32:53.560 --> 0:32:55.720 We came out, we came out of the tunnel like 0:32:56.040 --> 0:32:56.800 getting ready. 0:32:56.560 --> 0:32:59.960 To play in like it was field. My heart dropped. 0:33:00.320 --> 0:33:04.040 Yeah, I've been to a lot of NFL preseason games 0:33:04.360 --> 0:33:06.840 that was not like that. Yeah, you're right, You're right. 0:33:06.920 --> 0:33:09.680 In fact, as I've said before on this show, I've 0:33:09.720 --> 0:33:13.240 done playoff games in Kansas City. That game was louder. 0:33:13.360 --> 0:33:18.920 The UC Nebraska game was louder than Bengals Chiefs Bob Hey, guys. 0:33:19.200 --> 0:33:23.040 So we got this a new IPF and locker rooms 0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:26.960 and you know, conditioning and recovery. Has it made a 0:33:27.000 --> 0:33:30.080 difference in how you recover after the game? And what's 0:33:30.120 --> 0:33:34.160 your most favorite room? 0:33:35.200 --> 0:33:38.840 My favorite room, I say probably the steaming sauna. Like 0:33:39.320 --> 0:33:42.719 it just clean you, like it clean your body, make 0:33:42.800 --> 0:33:46.200 you feel better, like I say that for sure, Like yes, 0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:47.080 sir and Twine. 0:33:48.720 --> 0:33:50.080 It used to be the hot tub. 0:33:52.080 --> 0:33:54.760 Coach that would always come in the you come from 0:33:54.880 --> 0:33:58.520 out the steam room and like you gots soft in 0:33:58.560 --> 0:34:01.000 this hot tug, you gotta get steam room. 0:34:01.360 --> 0:34:05.600 So yeah, I used to be soft, I guess. 0:34:06.080 --> 0:34:07.600 But now I've been getting in the steading room a 0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:11.200 little bit and you know, get all the little sickness 0:34:11.239 --> 0:34:11.600 out of you. 0:34:11.680 --> 0:34:12.040 I guess. 0:34:12.080 --> 0:34:14.120 But yeah, it used to be hot to and now 0:34:14.120 --> 0:34:14.960 it's to see him. 0:34:15.080 --> 0:34:17.680 Nobody answers the cold top mm hmm. 0:34:23.360 --> 0:34:24.239 We can't do that one. 0:34:25.120 --> 0:34:27.560 It's a little too cold to Brian. 0:34:28.600 --> 0:34:31.920 I expected Dan to ask you about this. Do you 0:34:31.920 --> 0:34:34.520 guys know what a phone booth is? And how do 0:34:34.600 --> 0:34:36.800 you keep a wide receiver in a phone booth? 0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:37.160 How does that? 0:34:37.280 --> 0:34:38.000 How does that work? 0:34:38.640 --> 0:34:41.360 So when Coach Sat said it, like I knew what 0:34:41.360 --> 0:34:45.080 he meant by but they was telling me about a 0:34:45.080 --> 0:34:48.400 phone booth, I ain't know it's that small, like so 0:34:49.600 --> 0:34:52.000 I didn't know it was that small. And to keep 0:34:52.000 --> 0:34:54.640 wire receiving the phone booth, it's like making them uncomfortable 0:34:54.640 --> 0:34:57.680 a game, you know, down they don't like they like 0:34:57.760 --> 0:35:00.799 being comfortable doing all that running for you gotta make 0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:02.440 them uncomfortable, best of them a little bit. 0:35:04.239 --> 0:35:06.759 Gary, Yeah, that's just for both of you. 0:35:07.600 --> 0:35:10.360 Earlier in the year, it seemed like our defense was 0:35:10.400 --> 0:35:14.160 more of a laid back, prevent maybe type of defense. 0:35:14.719 --> 0:35:19.320 Especially this last Saturday, you played a lot more up 0:35:20.120 --> 0:35:27.360 going downhill press, doing a lot more blitzing. Do you 0:35:27.360 --> 0:35:29.759 guys like that better than the laid back or is 0:35:29.840 --> 0:35:32.200 that just one day and trying. 0:35:32.719 --> 0:35:35.080 Yeah, I mean, you know, I feel like it's definitely 0:35:35.080 --> 0:35:36.879 different every week. You know, we gotta get a new 0:35:36.920 --> 0:35:39.320 game plan every single week, so it just kind of varies. 0:35:39.440 --> 0:35:42.239 But I definitely do like the blitz a little bit. 0:35:42.440 --> 0:35:45.400 I definitely say that. So just getting more pressure on 0:35:45.440 --> 0:35:48.640 the quarterback definitely helps with you know, the secondary and 0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:53.239 getting more stops, you know, turning the ball over. 0:35:53.360 --> 0:35:54.399 Just little things like that. 0:35:55.360 --> 0:35:57.200 Yeah, you want to weigh in on that. 0:35:58.760 --> 0:36:01.520 I'm not to group come down here, been in the 0:36:02.480 --> 0:36:04.320 din't know to play free, but our coach do do 0:36:04.360 --> 0:36:06.600 a good job, like as a go week by week 0:36:06.719 --> 0:36:10.320 as game planning too, like the offense that we're going against, 0:36:10.320 --> 0:36:13.839 So just a pants but I kind of like being 0:36:13.920 --> 0:36:14.479 lower and more. 0:36:14.360 --> 0:36:18.120 Aggressive, yes, sir, all right, any more questions from the audience. 0:36:18.120 --> 0:36:21.200 If so, raise your hand. John will find you. Otherwise 0:36:21.280 --> 0:36:23.880 I will, I will reach into my bag of tricks. 0:36:23.880 --> 0:36:28.880 Anybody else? All right? Apparently not, It's up to me. 0:36:29.680 --> 0:36:35.080 That's fine. Let's talk about Utah's quarterback situation. Damn Pierre, 0:36:35.239 --> 0:36:39.320 their starter, missed last week with an ankle injury. Bird 0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:43.439 Fickland stepped in and was outstanding. It sounds like Damn 0:36:43.480 --> 0:36:45.720 Pierre is going to come back and play this week. 0:36:46.080 --> 0:36:50.960 Does the Utah offense change much or are you basically 0:36:51.000 --> 0:36:54.520 preparing for what they do offensively regardless of which guy's 0:36:54.520 --> 0:36:55.320 playing quarterback. 0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:58.839 Yeah, I kind of say we kind of preparing just 0:36:58.840 --> 0:37:00.719 like in general kind of they both kind of do 0:37:00.760 --> 0:37:03.479 the same thing. You know, they definitely have a little 0:37:03.480 --> 0:37:06.480 bit of their differences, but they both can for sure 0:37:06.600 --> 0:37:12.080 run the ball, so we're definitely preparing for that. Yeah, 0:37:12.120 --> 0:37:17.360 But I mean, I mean, they don't really know yea, yeah. 0:37:17.239 --> 0:37:19.160 They probably like they're the same type of quarterbacks. So 0:37:19.200 --> 0:37:22.120 we have to prepare for everything overall. So we're going 0:37:22.160 --> 0:37:24.840 into the game preparing and watching both of them expect 0:37:24.920 --> 0:37:25.719 to get the same thing. 0:37:26.840 --> 0:37:30.279 Tarn Tayle spoke with reporters earlier today, and he made 0:37:30.320 --> 0:37:34.120 the point of saying both teams are blue collar teams, 0:37:34.280 --> 0:37:36.640 and he meant it as a like a nod of 0:37:36.680 --> 0:37:39.440 respect to Utah. The way they play, how hard they 0:37:39.440 --> 0:37:42.160 play similar to Cincinnati. Do you guys feel the same way, 0:37:42.239 --> 0:37:43.280 Jakwan you son. 0:37:43.200 --> 0:37:45.239 Yeah, I feel the same way. Like when you watch a. 0:37:45.239 --> 0:37:48.319 Film, they show up their physical, fast effort like us. 0:37:48.360 --> 0:37:50.600 They look a lot like us with the physical. 0:37:50.160 --> 0:37:54.480 Effort, just flying around, playing hard and ty Yeah. 0:37:54.480 --> 0:37:57.800 I mean, just like what Kwan said, they're really physical. 0:37:59.080 --> 0:38:01.360 What was gonna come down to is, you know who's 0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:04.759 going to be more physical longer? You know, the more 0:38:04.800 --> 0:38:07.080 physical and the more violent. Uh, team is gonna win 0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:08.480 at the end of the day. So we've got to 0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:10.640 be more physical and more violent than they are. 0:38:11.520 --> 0:38:14.560 College game Day is going to be there. Some ESPN 0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:17.840 cameraman types were walking around the building today, so it's 0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:20.480 some nice publicity for the program. 0:38:20.640 --> 0:38:20.879 Uh. 0:38:20.960 --> 0:38:23.320 You know, you guys earned that. How does it feel 0:38:23.400 --> 0:38:26.360 to have continued to climb in the rankings and to 0:38:26.560 --> 0:38:28.759 have been, you know, good enough to this point of 0:38:28.800 --> 0:38:32.279 the season that ESPN wants Cincinnati and Utah to be 0:38:32.320 --> 0:38:33.640 the college game day game? 0:38:33.840 --> 0:38:38.239 Antwine Yeah, it definitely feels good, you know, coming from 0:38:38.280 --> 0:38:42.680 when coach that first guy here, you know, not the greatest, uh, 0:38:42.719 --> 0:38:45.239 and then the next year, you know, we improved a lot, 0:38:45.960 --> 0:38:48.120 got a new a lot of new players, and then 0:38:48.160 --> 0:38:51.440 to this year, you know, being even better. You know, 0:38:51.520 --> 0:39:00.239 it's definitely been pretty good so far. And yeah, a 0:39:00.280 --> 0:39:01.720 question out that that's all right. 0:39:02.040 --> 0:39:04.600 Yeah, like what Pete said, really like, uh, we're not 0:39:04.680 --> 0:39:07.520 really surprised. It feels good though, Like last year wasn't 0:39:07.520 --> 0:39:09.600 that far off. Like a lot of the games who 0:39:09.719 --> 0:39:13.359 lost was close series games, just one play that could 0:39:13.360 --> 0:39:15.799 turn the game around. So it was just little things 0:39:15.800 --> 0:39:18.000 that we had to fix. This year we turned around. 0:39:18.480 --> 0:39:21.640 Yeah, kind of add on to that, we just gotta 0:39:22.800 --> 0:39:26.600 we just can't at this point, you know, we're feeling good, 0:39:27.200 --> 0:39:31.239 but we can't let that just let us slow us down. 0:39:31.320 --> 0:39:33.880 We just gotta keep going. We gotta keep fighting and 0:39:34.120 --> 0:39:35.360 just finish off the season strong. 0:39:36.320 --> 0:39:38.440 How did you guys hold Baylor to one hundred and 0:39:38.520 --> 0:39:44.240 thirty seven passing yards last week? 0:39:44.760 --> 0:39:48.319 I mean, at first, I want to say shout out 0:39:48.320 --> 0:39:51.080 of coach, right, he like the game plan we had 0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:54.279 and just the rest of the defensive staff and like 0:39:54.320 --> 0:39:56.000 they did the game plan they had for us going 0:39:56.040 --> 0:39:58.360 to the game. It wasn't like a pass up like 0:39:58.560 --> 0:40:02.279 playback let them. Was just our guys, beeny guys, and 0:40:02.320 --> 0:40:05.279 we're finished. We're gonna play play the game plan and 0:40:05.400 --> 0:40:06.200 we execute it. 0:40:07.320 --> 0:40:11.200 Yeah, I mean exactly what he just said. And add 0:40:11.200 --> 0:40:14.319 a little bit more to that. You know, we knew 0:40:14.320 --> 0:40:16.400 we had to be more physical than they are. We 0:40:16.480 --> 0:40:18.080 knew that they were a pretty physical team. 0:40:18.840 --> 0:40:19.560 We knew that. 0:40:21.040 --> 0:40:23.880 They might throw a little couple of cheap shots in, 0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:27.440 but we had to keep our composure. So yeah, I 0:40:27.560 --> 0:40:30.600 just say we were more aggressive and more physical than 0:40:30.600 --> 0:40:32.799 they were. And you know, we had a really good 0:40:32.840 --> 0:40:35.400 game plan and it allowed us to be physical. 0:40:36.320 --> 0:40:41.400 Let's see if Cincinnati's all time leader in sacks, tackles 0:40:41.400 --> 0:40:46.960 for loss, blocked field goals, forced fumbles happens to have 0:40:47.040 --> 0:40:53.239 a question and Twine. 0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:58.080 Okay, this question is from mom. What is your favorite 0:40:58.120 --> 0:41:00.000 football moment up to this moment? 0:41:00.160 --> 0:41:08.040 Hm, hm Antoine, your first. 0:41:05.600 --> 0:41:09.319 I'd probably say Kansas, Uh, you know, the fourth quarter 0:41:09.360 --> 0:41:12.200 stop force fumble that I had. Uh, that would probably 0:41:12.200 --> 0:41:14.000 be my favorite moment that I've had so far. 0:41:15.320 --> 0:41:20.640 Yeah, forcing a fumble at the one yard line that was, 0:41:23.920 --> 0:41:27.040 and I'm sure Antoine's mom would be interested to know 0:41:27.239 --> 0:41:29.919 your answer to the same question. Jaquan, your favorite moment 0:41:29.960 --> 0:41:30.799 is a bearcat so. 0:41:30.800 --> 0:41:33.200 Far, I'm might have to say were like, we want 0:41:33.200 --> 0:41:35.680 to be our states starting the field That was too Finn. 0:41:36.280 --> 0:41:40.880 You gotta do that, You gotta do that good? The 0:41:40.960 --> 0:41:43.239 field storming was good. Did you guys stay out there 0:41:43.239 --> 0:41:44.759 and linger and take it all in? 0:41:45.000 --> 0:41:45.399 For sure? 0:41:46.840 --> 0:41:48.040 Yeah? 0:41:49.160 --> 0:41:51.839 And last question, with the success that you guys are 0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:54.719 having thus far this season, what are your goals for 0:41:54.760 --> 0:41:55.880 the remainder of the season. 0:41:56.800 --> 0:41:59.120 I stay taking it on one week at a time 0:41:59.760 --> 0:42:01.960 and don't want to know each week, like taking it 0:42:02.440 --> 0:42:06.040 each day at a time. Continue to grow as a team, 0:42:06.520 --> 0:42:07.480 getting better every day. 0:42:08.000 --> 0:42:09.280 Yeah, I just got a stack daze. 0:42:09.320 --> 0:42:09.520 You know. 0:42:09.560 --> 0:42:12.040 That's something that we've been talking about pretty much every 0:42:12.080 --> 0:42:17.160 single days, second days, and just being consistent in our 0:42:17.239 --> 0:42:20.000 routine and everything that we do. So as long as 0:42:20.000 --> 0:42:22.799 we do those things, I think that we will be good. 0:42:25.239 --> 0:42:27.480 Well, my goal for you guys to make the playoffs. 0:42:28.320 --> 0:42:37.240 Yeah, it's a very realistic goal. You know. It's interesting 0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:40.480 because I've been on some shows as a guest where 0:42:40.520 --> 0:42:43.040 they're asking me about the matchup this week, and they 0:42:43.080 --> 0:42:46.360 make it sound like Cincinnati hasn't been good for ages. 0:42:47.280 --> 0:42:50.439 Cincinnati was in the fourteen playoffs four years ago. I mean, 0:42:50.440 --> 0:42:53.239 this is not ancient history. And you guys have a 0:42:53.280 --> 0:42:56.839 realistic chance. The playoff is twelve teams now. The number 0:42:56.880 --> 0:42:58.759 one goal is to get to Dallas and play for 0:42:58.800 --> 0:43:00.919 the Big twelve Championship. And if you can get there, 0:43:01.000 --> 0:43:02.920 if you win it, you definitely go. And even if 0:43:02.960 --> 0:43:05.640 you lose it, you could conceivably have a chance to 0:43:05.680 --> 0:43:08.759 go to the twelve team playoff. But that that goal 0:43:08.800 --> 0:43:12.080 of making it to Dallas. Going back to spring football, 0:43:12.880 --> 0:43:15.440 guys were saying it openly. I mean, you guys really 0:43:16.080 --> 0:43:19.640 embrace that is something that that was the target to 0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:20.359 shoot for, right. 0:43:21.000 --> 0:43:24.920 Yeah, So yeah, we were definitely you know, all off season, 0:43:24.960 --> 0:43:27.440 you know, we were breaking it down on Dallas, and 0:43:27.480 --> 0:43:30.120 then as he got closer to the season, you know, 0:43:30.160 --> 0:43:33.000 we kind of realized like, yeah, we want to get 0:43:33.000 --> 0:43:36.799 to Dallas, but we can't get to Dallas without week one. 0:43:37.200 --> 0:43:41.719 So yeah, we just we just really just kind of 0:43:41.719 --> 0:43:44.719 toned in on that and just realized, like we gotta 0:43:45.760 --> 0:43:47.880 you know, this week is the most important week, So 0:43:47.920 --> 0:43:51.200 we got to be worried about this week first, and 0:43:52.680 --> 0:43:55.799 we got to beat them first in order to get 0:43:55.800 --> 0:43:56.440 it to Dallas. 0:43:56.640 --> 0:43:58.240 Yeah, I mean you got to take care of business 0:43:58.320 --> 0:44:00.640 every week in order to reach that ultimate goal. 0:44:02.239 --> 0:44:02.439 Yeah. 0:44:02.440 --> 0:44:04.680 I said the same with Pete sand like every we 0:44:04.760 --> 0:44:07.359 we're looking at looking at it like everything we play 0:44:07.400 --> 0:44:09.399 is in the way of us get into Dallas. So 0:44:09.640 --> 0:44:11.479 this week you turn away with us get in Dallas. 0:44:11.520 --> 0:44:13.480 We gotta handle out all right. 0:44:13.480 --> 0:44:17.120 Well, you guys not only play the star position, but 0:44:17.280 --> 0:44:22.080 you are stars legitimately.
