It is the 9 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: return of the Cincinnati Bearcats as well this week, coming 10 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: off a buy of their own, and the Bearcats will 11 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 2: play host to the Arizona Wildcats at Nippert Stadium. That 12 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 2: game kicks off at noon on Saturday. You see right 13 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 2: now listed as a six and a half point favorite. 14 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: Of course, if you see can take care of business, 15 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: if BYU can take care of business on Saturday night, 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: those two bookend the Big twelve schedule. You see, Arizona 17 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: is a noon kickoff and Byutcu is a ten to 18 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 2: fifteen kickoff. If both of those teams win next week 19 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 2: would create a winner move on scenario with a chance 20 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,919 Speaker 2: to control your destiny to play in a Big twelve 21 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: championship game. Presumably against Texas Tech. Going into the by 22 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 2: u SEE had their worst performance of the year in 23 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: a loss at Utah where all things seemingly fell apart. 24 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: They were banged up, they could not get off the 25 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: field defensively, offense, turned the ball over multiple times. Special 26 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: teams wasn't great. It was their worst performance as a whole. 27 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 2: The big question now, can this team rebound and get 28 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: back to who they were because last year Mulgger's alluded 29 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 2: to this as well five and two and things fell 30 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 2: apart down the stretch. Does one loss send this into 31 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: a spiral or does the bye week allow this team 32 00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: to get their confidence back and put their best foot 33 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 2: forward against Arizona on Saturday. Here's what Scott Saderfield had 34 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: to say, just a bit of go a week. 35 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 3: It was come at a great time for us after 36 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 3: six straight weeks of conference games, and I thought we 37 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 3: had a great boy week. I Mean, the big thing 38 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 3: about last week was, you know, really a reset for 39 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 3: us and recover mentally and physically, and I thought our 40 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 3: guys did that. We you know, we cut back on 41 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: practice last week and allowed them some time to heal 42 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 3: up and then and also at the same time worked 43 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: on some a lot of young guys and let them 44 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 3: play and I thought we had a great time with that. 45 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 4: That was fun. 46 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 3: And so it's a good week, all the while knowing 47 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 3: that we had Arizona coming up and and then obviously 48 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 3: breaking them down then had opportunity to watch them play 49 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 3: Saturday and and get ready for this team, a really 50 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: good football team. Coach Brnnan has done a great job 51 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 3: there this year. I think obviously a couple of things 52 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 3: stand out by them. But I think first off, defensively, 53 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 3: new defensive coordinator this year, and they've done it. They've 54 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 3: done an outstanding job, you know, mixing up fronts of coverages. 55 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 3: The guys are playing hard, they're playing physical, creating a 56 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,119 Speaker 3: lot of turnovers. 57 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 4: You know. 58 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 3: I think when I first front turned on the film, 59 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 3: that was probably one thing that stood out and everybody 60 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 3: talks about for feed and he's a great quarterback, has 61 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 3: done it. I think he started thirty one game, so 62 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 3: he's done it for a long period of time. And 63 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: incredible player. Puts pressure on the defense, you know, some 64 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 3: really good wide outs. 65 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 4: Good running game as well. I think maybe the running. 66 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 3: Game gets overshadowed by by the passing game, but I 67 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 3: mean they finished the game off against Kansas by running 68 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 3: the football in the last drive. 69 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 4: So a really good football team. 70 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 3: We're excited about, you know, the opportunity that you're sitting 71 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 3: here playing in the middle of November, you know, tied 72 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 3: for first place in the Big Twelve, and and so 73 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 3: we're excited about that opportunity because all our goals are 74 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 3: still sitting in front of us. You know, obviously, got 75 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 3: to have a great week of practice this week, and 76 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 3: our preparation will determine how we go out and play 77 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 3: on Saturday. Yeah, I mean, I think it's more than 78 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 3: just Brendan. I mean I think it's everybody on our offense, 79 00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 3: you know. 80 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 4: I mean, it starts with the coaches. 81 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 3: We gotta, we gotta, you know, put our players in 82 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: positions so they can go make plays. You know, we 83 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 3: have to do a good job of staying on the 84 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 3: on the sticks and you know, not getting off off schedule. 85 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's a big piece of it, you know. 86 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 3: And then ultimately, guys, you have to block good up front. 87 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 3: We have to make you have to run good routes 88 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 3: and throw and catch. I mean, so to me, it's 89 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 3: it's everybody has to go out and execute at a 90 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: high level. And you know, when you're playing really good 91 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: defenses like Arizona's, you have to execute. If one or 92 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 3: two guys are not executing, then you're gonna have a 93 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 3: much more difficult time moving to football. And I think 94 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 3: we've seen that from Arizona over this season. I mean 95 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: that they've they've done some great things on defense and 96 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 3: shut down a lot of good offenses. Well, I mean, 97 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 3: you know, obviously, I think Sawyer was six five and 98 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: Noah's you know, shorter, guy's under six foot and Noah's 99 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 3: got a lot more. 100 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 4: Ability to move with his feet. 101 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 3: I mean, he does a great job of buying time 102 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 3: in the pocket scrambling. You know, he's a scramble to 103 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 3: throw guy. Also can run. I mean again that last 104 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 3: drive last week, I think think you hit two Q 105 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 3: draws in that drive over ten yards a piece to 106 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 3: go down and score. So he's a much more dynamic 107 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 3: run runner. But that can throw. I mean, I think 108 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 3: you know, I think he ended up tying for the 109 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 3: most touchdowns in Arizona football history. So I mean, obviously 110 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 3: speaks volumes about how how good a player he is. 111 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 3: They sit they really, I mean, I know people say this, 112 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 3: but they easily could see it be here at eight 113 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 3: to one right now. I mean they're up ten against 114 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 3: BYU with four minutes to go in the game, and 115 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 3: had that game won quite honestly, as I mean not 116 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 3: obviously by you did a great job of pulling it out, 117 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 3: but if one little thing goes, Arizona was winning that game. 118 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 3: And then also I thought they played great against Houston. 119 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 3: You know, Houston ends up, you know, kicking a last 120 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 3: second field goal to. 121 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 4: Beat them, you know. 122 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 3: So you can't get any tighter or closer than that 123 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 3: to sit there being eight and one right now. 124 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 4: The only game that they really wasn't in was the 125 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 4: Iowa State. 126 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 3: Game, you know, and that was an incredible crowd at 127 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 3: Iowa State white out. I mean, it was an unbelievable 128 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 3: atmosphere for Iowa State. So yeah, I think they are 129 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 3: underrated at six and three. I mean, I got they 130 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 3: got an outstanding football team. They got they have team speed, 131 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 3: they can run, they're physical, they have good plans in 132 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 3: all three phases, you know, So that's the recipe for success. Yeah, 133 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 3: I mean I think that's obviously a big part of 134 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 3: their success is creating the turnovers, and they've taken care 135 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 3: of the football too on the offensive side, so that 136 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: turnover margin, which obviously we all know is a huge 137 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 3: stat I think that's why they've had a lot of 138 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 3: success this year. They just do a good job of 139 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 3: their coaches of putting their guys in position to make plays. 140 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 3: They you know, they do a lot of things on defense. 141 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 3: You know, a lot of different pressures. You know, linebackers 142 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 3: are walking up, you know, off the edge, blitzing. They're 143 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: not scared of you know, blitz a safety or a corner. 144 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 3: I mean, they're gonna they're gonna give you a lot 145 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 3: of different looks to try to confuse the offense. You know, 146 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 3: they got some good tacklers. I mean forty three is 147 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 3: are safety a leading tackler. I mean, he's a really 148 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 3: good player. Number four are middle linebackers and another really 149 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 3: good one. They have some good d linemen that are 150 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 3: quick twitched that can cause problems when they're one on 151 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 3: one blocking, you know, and I think they give you 152 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: a lot of different looks. I think you guys mentioned 153 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 3: they play man, but they do a lot of things 154 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 3: back in the back end. They'll you know, they'll play quarters, 155 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 3: they'll play man, they'll play three they'll they'll jump in 156 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 3: some different looks to try to confuse the quarterback, and 157 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 3: I think that's where quarterbacks have gotten in trouble, you know, 158 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 3: throwing into. 159 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 5: Coverage dat on Evan Tywee. 160 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they're all improving, getting better, you know, 161 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 3: Tywe's I think he's back to normal now. You know, 162 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 3: Evan's making great improvement, you know, and and you know, 163 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: we'll see where we're at a by the end of 164 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 3: the week. 165 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 4: But I'm making great improvement. How important is that run 166 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 4: game for you? 167 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 5: That they're sticky in past defense, how important will it 168 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,239 Speaker 5: be to settle in the run game and get them moving? 169 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean I think this year we you know, 170 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: we've been very efficient in the run game and you know, 171 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: one of the better, more sufficient teams in the country 172 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 3: running the football. We have to be able to run 173 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 3: the football, and that comes in a lot of different ways. 174 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,239 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it's it's running at the right time, 175 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 3: it's you know, obviously, you know, running a quarterback when 176 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 3: we need to run a quarterback, but also you know, 177 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 3: kind of trying to create some space where our backs 178 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 3: can have more room to make people miss. And I 179 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 3: think we have to have to be able to mix 180 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 3: all that in. We have to be able to run 181 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 3: the football, control the clock a little bit. 182 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 4: Obviously. 183 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: You'd love to, you know, if we could somehow, you know, 184 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 3: have the ball a little bit more than we've had 185 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: it in some of these games and run some more 186 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 3: offensive plays, that would be awesome. But I think for us, 187 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 3: it's just really comes down to execution up front and 188 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 3: starts with our offensive line. They've had a really good year, 189 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 3: but this will be another great challenge for the guys 190 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 3: up front. 191 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 6: Brendan's only been sacked twice. I think that Noah has 192 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 6: been sacked several times. I think they've got him five 193 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 6: times in the last game. Do you think you can 194 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 6: get to him or is that when he's dangerous when 195 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 6: he's running out of the pocket. 196 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you'd love to be able to get 197 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 3: some pressure on him, to be able to get him. 198 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 3: You know, I think Kansas did a great job last week, 199 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 3: you know, looking at that film of getting to the quarterback. 200 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: Uh did you mentioned they sacked them five times and 201 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: they were back there some more times as well. 202 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 4: But he is slippery. 203 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 3: He does a great job of moving around, Like you mentioned, 204 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 3: If you do flush him out. Well, now he's on 205 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 3: a perimeter, he's looking down the field, and if you 206 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 3: lose some cover somewhere, he's gonna make you pay. So 207 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 3: he's a tough guy to cover to defend. So we 208 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 3: gotta do a good job again of mixing it up, 209 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: not playing the same defense out there, some of the 210 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: same things we talked about. 211 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 4: Try to get him off schedule. 212 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think that's the biggest thing for us, 213 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 3: and you know, and the guys up front. 214 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 4: You to have a great. 215 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 6: Game of Goldie went out of the last game. 216 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,599 Speaker 4: See Okay, Yeah he's good. He had, you know, a 217 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 4: great week last week. 218 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 7: Obviously, it's been a while since the Utah game, but 219 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 7: after being able to break down that film, a lot 220 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 7: of some people might be saying, like, is the blueprint 221 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 7: out on the Cincinnati offense? Is there anything you would 222 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 7: have done differently or was that just really well schemed 223 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 7: up by their defense? 224 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 4: Yeah? I think, you know, there's a lot of things 225 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 4: involved with that. 226 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 3: You know, where we played, when we played how they play, 227 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: I mean, it was a lot you know, I think 228 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 3: they're a good football team. 229 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 4: Their their scheme was really good. 230 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 3: We didn't exploit it, obviously, there are some things we 231 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 3: would do different, I think if we if we played 232 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: them again. You know, obviously you got to execute better 233 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: as well. We didn't execute great, I don't think in 234 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 3: that game. But a lot of they had a lot 235 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 3: to do with it, I mean, with what they were 236 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 3: trying to do to us, you know. But and they 237 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 3: got good players, man, I mean, you know, so you 238 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 3: put all that together, and I think that's what ended 239 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 3: up happening. I mean, I think offense, we moved the football, 240 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 3: we had, you know, four hundred and some yards, and 241 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 3: we didn't score enough points, you know, with the way 242 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 3: the game went, you know. And obviously it's a team game, 243 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 3: so you got to play good on both sides of 244 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 3: the ball when you're playing a team like that. But yeah, 245 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 3: obviously we do some do things a lot different. But 246 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 3: I also think you're gonna you're gonna do what you do, like, like, 247 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 3: whatever your your scheme is, like, you're gonna try to 248 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 3: do that at a high level. 249 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 4: You know. 250 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 3: I don't think you're necessarily gonna try to do something 251 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 3: somebody else did. And you may maybe lean a little 252 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 3: bit more toward maybe that, but. 253 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 4: You're gonna do what you do. I think whoever you're playing. 254 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 6: Cyrus is second in the nation and touchdown catches, so 255 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 6: I obviouls see the receivers are a lot better. Back 256 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 6: to Joe, do you see are people just doing things 257 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 6: completely different or is it just the receivers are better 258 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 6: than last year so he's not necessarily the top target 259 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 6: or is it combination of things. 260 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 4: I think it's a little bit of both of that. 261 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 3: There's been times this year where we've tried to, you know, 262 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: call Joe's number and you look and there's two dudes 263 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 3: on him. 264 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 4: You know, it's hard to get the ball to him. 265 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 3: I think the other side of that is, like you mentioned, 266 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 3: I mean, we do have some guys on the outside 267 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 3: that we feel like can win, and they have made 268 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 3: good plays for us this year and spreading the ball 269 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 3: out if you look, if you look at our you know, 270 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 3: distribution of the balls to the to the White House, 271 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 3: I mean it's pretty even. I mean, you know, and 272 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 3: then you get you put Joe in there, you put 273 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 3: some running backs in there, and you obviously want to 274 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 3: run the football. So I feel like our balance as 275 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 3: far as that has been really good this year because 276 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 3: you don't, you know, you're not necessarily can just to 277 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: try to defend one guy. You try to find this 278 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 3: one guy, then we're gonna beat you with. 279 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 4: Some other guys. 280 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 3: And I think that's probably the product is why he 281 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 3: didn't have as much production. 282 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 4: All Right. 283 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: That is some of Scott's Adderfield from earlier this afternoon 284 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 2: down in Clifton talking about Arizona, talking about the team 285 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 2: getting healthy as an important role for this team. But 286 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: not to overlook this is an Arizona team that is 287 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,719 Speaker 2: close and has been close in a couple of their 288 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: losses in the Big Twelve this year, as Scott's Saderfield 289 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 2: alluded to a road loss at Iowa State six point 290 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: loss late in which they led against BYU, and then 291 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 2: a three point loss on the road at Houston. Of 292 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 2: course that BYU loss in overtime. So it's an Arizona 293 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 2: team that has some good wins in the Big Twelve. Colorado, Kansas, 294 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State, Kansas State all wins for Arizona this season. 295 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: It's going to be a good test for the Cincinnati Bearcats. 296 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 2: Let's stick with the collegiate theme. Let's talk some college 297 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 2: hoops when we come back. We'll recap the Muskies loss 298 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 2: last night.

College basketball, it did 316 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 2: not go well for the Xavier Musketeers last night at 317 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 2: home against Santa Clara. They trailed at the half thirty 318 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: nine to twenty. That nineteen point difference stayed throughout the 319 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 2: second half, although with about two minutes remaining, Xavier actually 320 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 2: trailed in that one by thirty points before going on 321 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: a little bit of a run to finish the game. 322 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 2: They were outplayed in every statistical category, obviously points, They 323 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 2: were out rebounded last night. Santa Clara had more assist 324 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 2: they had more steals, they had more blocks, they had 325 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 2: less turnovers. Santa Clara shot at fifty four percent on 326 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 2: the field, Xavier shot at thirty four percent. They were 327 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 2: five to eighteen from three to twenty five of thirty 328 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 2: four from the foul line. It was bad on all 329 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: accounts last night for the Muskies. And I don't want 330 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 2: to take away anything from Santa Clara because from what 331 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 2: I've gathered, that's a Santa Clara team in the Western 332 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 2: Component or the the WCC with Kenzaga and Saint Mary's 333 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: that I think can win some games. All that being said, 334 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: at home, as a four and a half point favorite, 335 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: Xavier was bludgeoned last night. Here's what Richard Patino had 336 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 2: to say. After last night's nineteen point loss, well, not 337 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 2: a lot. 338 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 10: Not a lot of good obviously, you know, disappointed in 339 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 10: my self that, you know, we're putting that on the floor. 340 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 10: Our fans certainly deserve better, and I got to look 341 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 10: myself in the mirror and realize, like we've got a 342 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 10: long way to go, and you know, just told the team, 343 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 10: and we certainly understand that. I don't think this is 344 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 10: an arrogant group by any means. I don't think we 345 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 10: needed to be humbled, but I think we realize how 346 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 10: hard it's gonna be. We knew Santa Clara's be a 347 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 10: good team. I've obviously got a lot of respect for 348 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 10: coach Sendek and the program and the consistency that he's 349 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 10: built that program, you know. So there's nothing really to 350 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 10: it besides like we got to get back to work tomorrow. 351 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 10: So very appreciative of the fans, you know, I certainly 352 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 10: never want to see them leave like that. They deserve better, 353 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 10: and we've got to be collectively, coaches, players, everybody, we 354 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 10: got to be better because our fan base certainly deserves 355 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 10: better than that. 356 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 11: Coach Malik leads to your team in scoring over the 357 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 11: first two games tonight, doesn't attempt a shot in twenty 358 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 11: plus minutes. Was that just something Santa Clarita defensively and 359 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 11: how can you free him up some more? 360 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 361 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 10: I mean no, nobody was very good tonight. Obviously, Roddy 362 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 10: was terrific in the second half. So you know it's 363 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 10: all connected. It's not just Malik's fault. It's it's screening 364 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 10: to get him open. It's you know, they were picking 365 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 10: us up full court. They were denying Roddy realized that 366 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 10: in the second half obviously, going around guys and getting 367 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 10: to the rim and making play. So it wasn't just myleak. 368 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 10: I mean, Jovan obviously was oh for seven. All was 369 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 10: old for six. So as I said before, like I get, 370 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,959 Speaker 10: I get to help them a little bit more and 371 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 10: certainly won't get a lot of sleep tonight and try 372 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 10: to figure it out and get off the mat tomorrow. 373 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 12: When you see the points in the paint number fifty 374 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 12: two to twenty two, what what went wrong the most 375 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 12: in terms of that number, I. 376 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 4: Mean everything went wrong. 377 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 10: Everything went wrong. There was nothing right. You know, we 378 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 10: just we we just got it. We got to get 379 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 10: back to work in every phase of it. 380 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 8: You know. 381 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 10: It wasn't one thing, Santa Clara. Again, they're a good team, 382 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 10: but we just kind of let them do whatever we wanted, 383 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 10: you know. So we're gonna have to do this thing 384 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 10: the old fashioned way, and you know the only way 385 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 10: to do it is not necessarily to talk about it, 386 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 10: but just to pour our blood, sweat and the tears 387 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 10: on the bast on the practice court as best we can. 388 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 12: We got to see Mer for the first time tonight. 389 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 12: How long has he been back practicing with you guys 390 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 12: prior tonight? And how do you kind of see him 391 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 12: fitting in here over these guys. 392 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 10: I mean he was, he was back for he was 393 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 10: doing a little bit of non contact stuff. He went 394 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 10: full kind of go the last two practices. Obviously a 395 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 10: tough spot to put him in. But what he does 396 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 10: have is he's got athleticism. He's got the ability to 397 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 10: go by guys. That's where you saw Roddy in the 398 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 10: second half getting the lane, and I think mirror when 399 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 10: he You know, he's missed a couple of months, but 400 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 10: I think the more he gets his feet under him 401 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 10: and practice, the better he'll be. 402 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 11: Santa Clara threw the first punch right out of the 403 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 11: gate and that's kind of the third straight game. You're 404 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 11: behind the eight ball early. How do you get this 405 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 11: team to respond from the jumper? Is that just part 406 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 11: of like you mentioned earlier, fixed it? 407 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 8: Yeah? 408 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,360 Speaker 10: I mean that was certainly different than the other two. 409 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 10: You know, that was they were throwing haymakers for forty 410 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 10: minutes and we weren't responding, So uh that that wasn't 411 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 10: necessarily your first four minutes thing. And again I think 412 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 10: it's our guys. 413 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 8: Are going to realize. 414 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 10: Coaches, players, everybody collectively in our group is going to realize. 415 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 13: You know, we got to fight. 416 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 10: You know, there were loose balls that we weren't getting, 417 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 10: There was rebounds we weren't getting, and then it just compounds, 418 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,679 Speaker 10: you know, and when you play at this place and 419 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 10: you play in front of this crowd, like teams are 420 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 10: going to be ready for you, and you know, our 421 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 10: guys certainly didn't respond the right way throughout the course 422 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 10: of the game. 423 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: All right. That's Richard Patino. After last night's nineteen point 424 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 2: lost to Santa Clara. The Muskies have to rebound quick. 425 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 2: They are on the road at Iowa on Friday night. 426 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 2: As mentioned earlier, today, UK at Louisville is a big 427 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,439 Speaker 2: one at eight o'clock tonight, and of course the Dayton 428 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 2: Flyers come into Fifth Third Arena that is a seven 429 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 2: o'clock start.

Homer Bailey, Francisco Cordera, 451 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 2: Zach Cozart, Aaron Harang, Mike Leake, Brandon Phillip, Scott, Rowland, 452 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,959 Speaker 2: and Edison Valcez. And there's just so much going on 453 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 2: with this, and the Reds have always done such a 454 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: great job with the Hall of Fame. They do a 455 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 2: great job with the museum. So we thought what better 456 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: way to pair the two than today by talking with 457 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 2: the executive director of the Reds Hall of Fame and Museum, 458 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 2: Rick Walls. With everything going on Red's related, Rick, how 459 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 2: are you? 460 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 13: That's great, It's a pleasure to be with you both. 461 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 4: Rick. 462 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 2: Let's let's let's discuss the Hall of Fame balloting, the 463 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 2: names that came out, the balloting itself, let's start with that. 464 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 2: How does this work for Reds fans that they're able 465 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 2: to cast a vote and just the process that goes 466 00:21:59,200 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 2: into this. 467 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 15: Yeah, there's been you know, over time, the first Hall 468 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 15: of Fame class was elected in nineteen fifty eight, and 469 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 15: throughout the years, they're not an induction every single year, 470 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 15: pretty much every other year. In the last decade, there's 471 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 15: been some variance to that. So when you take a 472 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 15: look at the ballot and who's eligible, you have to 473 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 15: look at players for the modern player ballot that have 474 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 15: played within the last fifteen years. So there's a veterans 475 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 15: committee looks at candidates beyond fifteen years or more, but 476 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 15: you have to have played at least three years for 477 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 15: the Reds to be eligible. The ballot is created by 478 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 15: our Election Governance Committee. It's part of the Board of 479 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 15: Directors of the Hall that narrow this list down to 480 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 15: in this case, eight players, so looked at a lot 481 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 15: of players, got it down to the eighth that they 482 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 15: thought that if these candidates were elected, they'd be fine 483 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 15: with going into the Hall of Fame. So the ballot 484 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,479 Speaker 15: is created, it's sent out to the fans, to the 485 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 15: median broadcasters, and also to teammates of the players. So 486 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,719 Speaker 15: any Reds alum who played here three years or more, 487 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 15: we will get the cast to vote, so we really 488 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 15: field it's important that those three groups are very involved 489 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 15: in this process that the fans have a third say 490 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 15: and who's going in the same with the media and 491 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 15: the broadcasters who follow the game so closely, and of 492 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 15: course to the teammates, those that have been around the 493 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 15: players for a number of years and probably can gauge 494 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 15: their success and contributions and achievements a little bit beyond 495 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 15: some of the stats that we see. So that's your 496 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 15: modern Player ballot, and we're in the voting period now 497 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 15: for three weeks. 498 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 2: Voting period happens now. It runs through November twenty seventh, 499 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 2: and then the two winners that it is just two 500 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 2: players that are selected, those players are announced in December. 501 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 15: Yeah, so the modern player ballot will produce a two winners. 502 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 15: So two of the eight that are on this list 503 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 15: will be inducted next April. They'll be combined with any 504 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 15: selections that may come from the Veterans Committee. So this 505 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 15: group of about fourteen individuals, it changes every couple of years. 506 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 15: We get new members on the new opinions and they 507 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 15: get to really dive deep into the candidates of players 508 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 15: and managers and other executives that were involved with the 509 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 15: organization fifteen years ago or more. And that's a pretty 510 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 15: detailed process two three hour meeting so that class will 511 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 15: be elected as one. You know, we'll have them all together, 512 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 15: veterans and the modern player ballot winners. Next Aprils April 513 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 15: twenty four to twenty five, twenty six, we call the 514 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 15: Induction Celebration. They're on field ceremonies on the twenty fifth, 515 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 15: and then a big gal it's a fundraiser for the 516 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 15: museum on the twenty six at the Convention Center. So 517 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 15: a lot ahead of us now, but we're encouraging people 518 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 15: to vote and take you know, make sure they're vote counts, 519 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 15: so you can vote once per day. Pre email address 520 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 15: at Redsmuseum dot org and really just get involved in 521 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 15: the process. Support the Hall of Fame in your favorite candidate. 522 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 4: It is. 523 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 2: It's such a cool process because it's it's the fans, 524 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 2: and that's what makes this sport so fantastic, especially here 525 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 2: in the city of Cincinnati. And you think of the 526 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 2: players on the list and Homer Bailey and the no 527 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 2: hitters and what Coco Cordero was able to provide, and 528 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 2: Zach Cozart is an all star, Aaron Harangu is a starter, 529 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 2: Mike Leak is a starter, Edison Volcz Scott Rowland, of course, 530 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 2: Brandon Phil Mike Leak. It is it's special. How how 531 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 2: special is it for you being around this organization and 532 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: with the Hall of Fame for as long as you 533 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 2: have to see players like this recognize at a level 534 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 2: where they deserve to be recognized from the city and 535 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 2: the team. 536 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 15: I think it's extremely important to the fans. It's important 537 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 15: to the franchise and these players, even current players they 538 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 15: are playing the game, to see that we are recognizing 539 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 15: and honoring those who contribute time, their energy, you know, 540 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 15: I mean their life to Cincinnati Reds and their dedication 541 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 15: to trying to become a better team and bring championships 542 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 15: to this team. We had some players on this list 543 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 15: that were part of some pretty solid teams. If you 544 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 15: remember DNN in twelve and thirteen, great years for the Reds, 545 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 15: really really close, but some fantastic performances, record breaking moments, 546 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 15: memorable performances that people probably you know, within the last 547 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 15: fifteen years. A lot of the listeners here have been. 548 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 13: To those games. 549 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 15: They remember these players and having them have a say 550 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 15: and who gets in the Hall of Fame. I think 551 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 15: it's extremely important and I wish every team would do this. 552 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 13: They don't all have Halls of Fame. 553 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 15: Not every team has a museum, and we're one of 554 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 15: the only to have a large, dedicated museum. And that's 555 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 15: just a tribute to the Reds organization and our staff 556 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,719 Speaker 15: here at the museum, who is focused on doing what 557 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 15: we're supposed to do as a nonprofit and that celebrate greatness, 558 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 15: preserve history, and provide inspiration. The museum does that every day. 559 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 15: The pillar of all of that, the foundation, is the 560 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 15: Hall of Fame and the election process behind it. 561 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 13: Every player who played for the Reds we celebrate, but. 562 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 15: These guys will rise to the highest level and they'll 563 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 15: be in the Hall of Fame. Two of the winners 564 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 15: from the modern player ballot. 565 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 5: I'm curious too about the Veterans' ballot. You mentioned that 566 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 5: that's going to be announced in December as well. Is 567 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 5: there a rough estimate on the number of candidates that 568 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 5: are being debated with that group or is can it 569 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 5: be one person? Is it going to be multiple? How 570 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 5: do you expect the Veterans' ballot to shake out? 571 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 15: I kind of expect it to be one or two, 572 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 15: but it doesn't there's no mandates that could be zero. 573 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 15: The group could walk out without a consensus, but I 574 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 15: feel like there typically is one that hasn't happened. 575 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 13: Yet, but there are. 576 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 15: You're talking about candidates going back into the eighteen hundreds, 577 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 15: and the purpose of the committee is to make sure 578 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 15: no one has been overlooked. If you are on a 579 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,439 Speaker 15: modern player ballot and you have to be out of 580 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 15: baseball for five years and then played within the last fifteen, 581 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 15: that means you only have a ten year period to 582 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 15: be on a modern player ballot. And that also means 583 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 15: if we're only doing it every other year, there's only 584 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 15: five ballots that you could be on. So you can 585 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 15: imagine the ballot changing players going off, coming back on. 586 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 15: You could be a pretty good candidate, but not make 587 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 15: the Hall of Fame on the modern player ballot. And 588 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 15: that's where the Veterans Committee can come in later on 589 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 15: and decide, you know. 590 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 13: Hey, where you overlooked? Is there a case to be made? 591 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 15: You know, we now understand the game stats a little 592 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 15: bit better and have a better respect for what you 593 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 15: meant to the game and to the Reds organization, So 594 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 15: they will dive into all of those stats that really 595 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 15: are hard for any one individual to do by themselves. 596 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 15: To determine if we have a great ta ed it here, 597 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 15: and there are some good ones still on there going 598 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 15: back to the eighteen hundreds. The committee has pulled some 599 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 15: great ones in the past. And twenty twenty three general 600 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 15: manager by the name of Gabe Paul went in and 601 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 15: that was pretty special. And Danny Graves, the old time 602 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 15: Saves leader went in. So it's a great committee serving 603 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 15: a great cause then making sure those that warrant election 604 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 15: are elected. 605 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 2: It's such a storied organization with a storied past. Rick, 606 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 2: I know, we're in the off season for baseball and 607 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 2: it's a very busy offseason that seemingly never stops.

Uh, we'll look ahead 711 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 8: of Kentucky Louisville as well and try to figure out 712 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 8: what that was that Xavier put on the floor last. 713 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: Are you a little disappointed We've not seen the grade 714 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 2: tweet from Richard Patino today. If you're gonna do it 715 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: after wins, do you have to do it after a 716 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 2: loss as well? 717 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 8: Yes, if it's if that's gonna be your thing, which 718 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 8: I love it like I do. If that's if that's 719 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 8: gonna be your thing, it can't just be a thing 720 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 8: when you win. I mean, I don't know what he 721 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 8: would grade positively from that game last night. But if 722 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 8: you're gonna do that like you do it, you know, consistency. 723 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 5: Matters, right, Yeah, he hasn't been afraid to give out 724 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 5: harsh grades so far, so why wouldn't you do it 725 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 5: again when you lose? 726 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 8: Yes, it exactly. I mean you know what he could 727 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 8: do is I had a a professor once at the 728 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 8: University of Dayton. I took statistics because you had to 729 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 8: take one math class as a calm major, and so 730 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 8: I took the math class. It was stats, and I 731 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 8: wasn't very good at it. And you went to the 732 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 8: professor's office to get your midterm grade. And I went 733 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 8: in and he didn't have him posted, but he was 734 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 8: sitting in his office and he looked at me. He goes, 735 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 8: what do you think you got? I go, I don't 736 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 8: think I passed. He goes, I don't think we need 737 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 8: to tell you what you got that And he could 738 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 8: do something similar with the grades for his team last. 739 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: Night, What do you make tonight with the Flyers and 740 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 2: the Bearcats? What do you need to see? Friday night 741 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 2: was not great from the Bearcats. I know Dayton did 742 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 2: not have a great tune up over the weekend as well. 743 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 2: What are you hoping to see walking out of fifth 744 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 2: Ard Arena tonight? 745 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 8: First and foremost to Bearcat victory, because I don't think 746 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 8: that's a given by any stretch of the imagination. You know, 747 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 8: it's cliche, and I keep coming back to it. One 748 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 8: a firmer sense of the pieces fitting for the Bearcats. 749 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,919 Speaker 8: I'd like to see them shoot the ball better. I'd 750 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 8: like to see them assert themselves a little bit more 751 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 8: on the glass, because they really haven't in either of 752 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 8: the first two games, certainly didn't against West Carolina. I 753 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 8: think that's gonna be a little bit of an issue, 754 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 8: but I would like to see that begin to get 755 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 8: rectified tonight. I'd also like to see Seanabayev look more 756 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 8: like we saw him look in the first game as 757 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 8: opposed to how he played the other night. But for me, 758 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 8: it's just a more a better sense of how the 759 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 8: pieces are gonna fit as the season moves on. I 760 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 8: love college basketball for a lot of different reasons. One 761 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 8: of the reasons is I think it is the sport 762 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 8: where you have the potential to not look like you 763 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 8: did early in the season by the time we get 764 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 8: to the middle of the season, so teams can and 765 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 8: do get better. It's absurd to hand down any concrete 766 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 8: conclusions about any team in November, but let's face it, 767 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 8: year's failures loom over this team because I think it's 768 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 8: being framed the same way. They have good players, Do 769 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 8: the pieces fit. Let's get an answer in November, and 770 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 8: the way you get those answers are by beating the 771 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 8: two name brand opponents. You have this month, Louisville a 772 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 8: week from Friday, and Dayton tonight. 773 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 2: Last night Monday Night football. Not an offensive juggernaut by 774 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 2: any means. Two good defenses in the NFC. I'm looking 775 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 2: at the NFC today, Mo, and you could make an 776 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 2: argument to me that the Eagles can win the Super Bowl, 777 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 2: the Seahawks can win it, the Lions, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 778 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 2: the Rams, the Packers can all win the Super Bowl. 779 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 2: Who do you view right now through this week of 780 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 2: the NFL season as your favorite in the NFC? 781 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 8: The Los Angeles Rams. I think they have the best coach. 782 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 8: I think right now they have the best quarterback. I 783 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 8: think right now they have a quarterback who would get 784 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 8: serious MVP consideration. I cannot wait to watch Rams versus 785 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 8: Seattle this Sunday, which I think is going to be 786 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 8: a great game. But if there's one team I feel 787 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 8: most comfortable about and have felt the most comfortable with 788 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 8: as the season has gone on for two and a 789 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 8: half months, it would be the LA Rams. But the 790 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 8: NFC playoffs, like, you might get San Francisco as a seven. 791 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,760 Speaker 8: That's a fun team. You might get the Chicago Bears 792 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 8: as a seven, that's a really fun team. I don't 793 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 8: know that we could say something similar about the AFC, 794 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,439 Speaker 8: but I think the NFC postseason is gonna be wild. 795 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 2: Who's your top of the AFC. 796 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 8: I'll say New England love how they play Big Drake 797 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 8: may guy. Mike Vrabel's a great coach. Now he hasn't 798 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,919 Speaker 8: been awesome in the postseason. We saw that up close 799 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 8: with the Bengals when they played there when they were 800 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 8: the one seed in twenty twenty one. But the division 801 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 8: is obviously theirs for the taking. I still really do 802 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,760 Speaker 8: like the Colts. I kind of keep waiting for Daniel 803 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 8: Jones to turn into a pumpkin, but it hasn't happened yet. 804 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 8: They have Jonathan Taylor they can lean on on. New 805 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 8: England has a couple of running backs they can lead on. 806 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 8: Trevon Henderson the other day was terrific. I think New 807 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 8: England's the best team right now. I think if you 808 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 8: asked me that question of the month, my answer will 809 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 8: probably be different. 810 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 2: Lastly, I talked to a lot of folks with the 811 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 2: UT Bearcats football and everyone is talking about Byu b 812 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 2: Yu b Yu. What about the BYU game? I listened 813 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 2: to Scott Saderfield today and you dive into this Arizona team. 814 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 2: They got beat pretty good at Iowa State, but they 815 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 2: were leading BYU by ten eventually lost in overtime. They 816 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 2: lost at the Gun to Houston. How much better is 817 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 2: Arizona than maybe folks locally or giving them credit for. 818 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 2: And how much of a test is this going to 819 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: be on Saturday coming off a loss and then a bye. 820 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 8: One at Kansas late which U see did destroyed Colorado, 821 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 8: which you would expect because you know nobody. 822 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 2: Oh, Dion, Dion, Dion, I not as. 823 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 8: Many Colorado fans in our lives these days, I've noticed. 824 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 8: I think Arizona's pretty good now. Frankly, and this is 825 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 8: gonna sound really cliche. I think UC's biggest opponent against 826 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 8: Utah was itself. Yeah, like, I think Brendan sores Be 827 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 8: just played really, really poorly. And I don't know that 828 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 8: Utah had a ton to do with that. You know, 829 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 8: you and I were talking and you mentioned he had 830 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 8: a couple of balls batted down early that may have 831 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 8: had an impact, But I thought just lack of creativity offensively, 832 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 8: I thought Brendan sores Be just playing poorly. They did 833 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 8: a lot of uncharacteristic things, turning the ball over. They 834 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 8: were awful on special teams for the first time all 835 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 8: season long. But I agree wholeheartedly. I think a lot 836 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 8: of folks, I'm not so sure inside the program, but 837 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 8: I think a lot of us we've talked about beat 838 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 8: BYU well sandwiched around that game, I think is a 839 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 8: more difficult game against Arizona than people realize. Ain't exactly 840 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 8: gonna be easy going to TCU and trying to get 841 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 8: a win the week of Thanksgiving either, So I'm I 842 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 8: could not agree more with anybody who says, look, yes, 843 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 8: you gotta beat BYU, but that game's not gonna matter 844 00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 8: as much if you don't take care of business at home. 845 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 8: In this Arizona game is not one to be taken lightly. 846 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 2: Without a doubt. You can hear more of that and 847 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 2: so much else coming up on The Moulwagar Show ESPN 848 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 2: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Stations.
