<v Speaker 3>Let's talk. You see bearcats.

0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 2>They had to still Water, Oklahoma Saturday night to face

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma State Bearcats are number twenty four in the Country

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:14.720
<v Speaker 2>winners of what four straight went away from Bowl eligibility,

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:17.920
<v Speaker 2>but with much bigger goals in mind than that they

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:20.319
<v Speaker 2>are three and oh tied for first in the Big twelve.

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:23.520
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk about it with the man from Bearcat Journal

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Bearcat Journal dot com.

0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 3>That would be Chad Brendle. How are you.

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.480
<v Speaker 4>Five straight plans?

0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:33.399
<v Speaker 3>I don't want a short change, no one.

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I know we try to erase that Northwestern

0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 4>State game from our memory, but.

0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 5>It does County's count WNN column.

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:45.039
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I don't want to spend a ton of time

0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday, but you'd be perfect to do this for

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 2>those who did not follow our watch and they see

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 2>twenty to eleven against UCF, give a little explanation of

0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 2>just how disjointed that second half was. I laughed last

0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 2>night on his Coach show, Scott said, at times it

0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:05.279
<v Speaker 2>was like watching paint dry because his offense was standing

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 2>on the sidelines while UCF just held the ball and

0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:11.080
<v Speaker 2>held the ball and went on like nineteen played and

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.839
<v Speaker 2>just it was amazing the disparity in plays and time

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:16.040
<v Speaker 2>of possession.

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 4>Lands. I think one stat tells the whole story, and

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 4>it's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen

0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.640
<v Speaker 4>in football, Rocky, I need to know. I don't know

0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:27.360
<v Speaker 4>if you know this or not, but I need your

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:35.639
<v Speaker 4>reaction to this. If you do not, seventeen plays, forty yards,

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 4>nine minutes, it.

0:02:38.600 --> 0:02:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Ended in a punt, and you see it, it's no point.

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 5>It seems impossible. I would have to go back and

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:45.919
<v Speaker 5>watch it myself to believe it.

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 4>Yes, seventeen plays, nine minutes, forty yards and seventeen plays.

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. I went to public school in Kentucky,

0:02:57.400 --> 0:03:01.400
<v Speaker 4>so I'm not great at math. But I don't know

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:06.440
<v Speaker 4>how that happened. It doesn't make any sense. And it's two.

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:09.679
<v Speaker 5>The way, two point three yards peoplay.

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:12.080
<v Speaker 3>Somehow I get get the first down?

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. Look, you want to get running to

0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:15.960
<v Speaker 4>do that?

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Kind of man that they won ninety plays to UCS

0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 2>forty eight plays.

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:23.639
<v Speaker 3>Unbelievable.

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean, look, that's kind of what you see.

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:30.320
<v Speaker 4>They don't want to they don't want the disparity to

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 4>be like this. People, I think take it out of

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 4>context when I talk about this, But UC wants you

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 4>to stin your wheels like they They want to keep

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 4>everything in front. They want to make you move down

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:46.600
<v Speaker 4>the field. Two point three yards at a time and

0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.360
<v Speaker 4>they're okay with it like that. That's how that defense

0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:54.600
<v Speaker 4>is designed. Because remember this defense was built by the

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 4>Iowa Matt Campbell and the Iowa state staff to slow

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:00.960
<v Speaker 4>down the Big twelve offenses like a decade ago when

0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 4>you looked and every score was like fifty three to

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 4>forty eight, right, Like, that's why this defense was designed.

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:12.280
<v Speaker 4>It's what it's designed to do. It was just on

0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 4>the extreme on Saturday because you see just spun their

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 4>tires and spun their tires and spun their tires and

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:24.280
<v Speaker 4>really until that's the you know, the touchdown that shouldn't

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 4>have happened. The second one in two weeks fit three points,

0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 4>Like all of those are all of those plays and

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 4>they had three points. And that's what Tysonvite wants to

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:35.719
<v Speaker 4>do to you.

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 3>Yep, yeah, Chad.

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:43.719
<v Speaker 5>Before the season, the national conversation about quarterbacks included names

0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:47.560
<v Speaker 5>like Cage Club Nick and arch Manning and Drew Aller

0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 5>and now here we are halfway through October and two

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.760
<v Speaker 5>names no one had on the radar. One I'll give

0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:58.120
<v Speaker 5>some credit to my Irish CJ. Carr is playing out

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:01.520
<v Speaker 5>of his mind, but also Brendan so is being talked about,

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:04.760
<v Speaker 5>you know, from a national standpoint, about how well he's

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.560
<v Speaker 5>playing right now, describe that well.

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:12.159
<v Speaker 4>First off, cars playing great, big hot tip to my

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:16.919
<v Speaker 4>guy Mike Denbrock, who if you remember, this fan base

0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 4>was really hard on Mike Denbrock to the point that

0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:21.440
<v Speaker 4>I used to jokingly when he was walking off the

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:24.919
<v Speaker 4>practice field, I do him just to get him a

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:28.680
<v Speaker 4>sense of how well liked he was in the fan base.

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 4>And he coached the Heisman Trophy winner and for a

0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 4>national championship. He's pretty good. Yeah, Sorsby's what you look for, right.

0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:43.760
<v Speaker 4>He's got size, He's got a big arm, he can move,

0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 4>he can run when you need him to run when

0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 4>you ask him to run. Like all of the things

0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:53.160
<v Speaker 4>that you look for in a high level quarterback, Brendan

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:59.160
<v Speaker 4>Sorosby possesses those things. I would say personally, I need

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:02.479
<v Speaker 4>to see a little bit more from him when it

0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:07.400
<v Speaker 4>comes to getting out of a cold spell. Right, he'll

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.640
<v Speaker 4>get it like he is hot. When he is hot,

0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 4>he is scorching hot. But it feels like the minute

0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 4>that dips a little bit, you get the second half.

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 4>Versus Iowa State, you get the second half. Versus Central Florida,

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:22.400
<v Speaker 4>where I need to see him be able to kick

0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:26.320
<v Speaker 4>it back into gear a little bit. But in terms

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 4>of you know what you're looking for in a quarterback

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 4>like he's out of Central Casting, I'm.

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:36.040
<v Speaker 2>Going to ask you what I asked Keegan last week

0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:39.280
<v Speaker 2>when he filled in for you, and it's for the

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.839
<v Speaker 2>casual fan who from AFAR would be looking and saying,

0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 2>all right, last year they beat Arizona State to get

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 2>to five and two, and I kind of got excited.

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:49.359
<v Speaker 3>Then they lost their final five.

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:53.200
<v Speaker 2>What, in your opinion, is different about this team this

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>year that won't lead to what happened last year.

0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:03.440
<v Speaker 4>A couple things. One, if you go back and watch

0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:07.680
<v Speaker 4>those five games last year, their special teams was an

0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:13.480
<v Speaker 4>unmitigated disaster at the end of last season, just terrible,

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:19.239
<v Speaker 4>and that cost them games. They couldn't cover, they couldn't kick,

0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:22.880
<v Speaker 4>they couldn't punt, they couldn't make field goals, like the

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:28.040
<v Speaker 4>whole operation fell apart. They couldn't catch. Remember how many

0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 4>times they'd touch a bouncing ball and all of a

0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 4>sudden the other teams got it at their own five

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.239
<v Speaker 4>yard line and you're wondering, what the heck just happened.

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 4>I think that is a big, big part of it

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 4>is their winning field position, and they're winning some of

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:47.360
<v Speaker 4>that in between stuff that in conference play is so important.

0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:50.320
<v Speaker 4>The other one they're not turning it over. They have

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:54.360
<v Speaker 4>done a phenomenal job taking care of the football, and

0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 4>I think that is one of It's not maybe the

0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 4>biggest difference this year and last year is last year

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:07.320
<v Speaker 4>they would just give it away inexplicably at times on

0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:10.240
<v Speaker 4>plays It just didn't make any sense at all, And

0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:12.880
<v Speaker 4>next thing you know, it's seven points for the other team.

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 4>Momentum shifts and what was a three point game is

0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:19.080
<v Speaker 4>all of a sudden the seventeen point games and they

0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 4>are not doing that. So a lot of it is

0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:25.040
<v Speaker 4>just limiting the stuff where they were shooting themselves in

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.680
<v Speaker 4>the foot. And when you play clean football and you've

0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:31.680
<v Speaker 4>got some really good players on your team, it makes

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:32.920
<v Speaker 4>life a heck of a lot easier.

0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:35.920
<v Speaker 5>Okay, and Chad to that point, and look, no one

0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:39.080
<v Speaker 5>knows this team better than you. Is there any thing

0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:42.559
<v Speaker 5>you can point to that Scott Saderfield specifically is doing

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 5>where that he wasn't doing last year that you can

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:48.280
<v Speaker 5>look to and now, wow, it seems won five games,

0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 5>and this is because Sadderfield is doing this better or different.

0:08:54.320 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if anything sticks out. I think maybe

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:04.000
<v Speaker 4>they're not having and this could just be a player's thing.

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.959
<v Speaker 4>It's not as much a Sadderfield thing. They're not trying

0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:09.600
<v Speaker 4>to get as cute on offense like that, you're not

0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:13.080
<v Speaker 4>seeing as much east west, You're not seeing you know,

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:17.719
<v Speaker 4>try and trick plays like. They don't feel at times

0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 4>like they're they're searching for something. They feel pretty confident

0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 4>and Scott's the play caller. They feel pretty confident in

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.560
<v Speaker 4>what they're dialing up right now. And I think a

0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 4>lot of that goes to a much better receiver Correps,

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 4>a better offensive line about the run and the pass game,

0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:38.080
<v Speaker 4>Soresby with an extra year. Like, I think it's just

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:42.640
<v Speaker 4>an overall maturation process that we've seen from last year

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:45.440
<v Speaker 4>to this year, and Saderfield gets the credit for that.

0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:48.840
<v Speaker 4>So I don't know if it's anything drastic, but I

0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:53.920
<v Speaker 4>think it's definitely visible watching the program take a step

0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:57.920
<v Speaker 4>where you're not scratching your head and going what was that?

0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:01.320
<v Speaker 4>Why was that? I don't understand the like it doesn't

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:05.679
<v Speaker 4>feel it's confusing the right word lands. Like last year,

0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:08.360
<v Speaker 4>a lot of the stuff they did felt confusing, and

0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:09.560
<v Speaker 4>they don't see that this year.

0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:13.439
<v Speaker 2>Last question, look ahead to Saturday night, still Water. Oklahoma

0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:15.480
<v Speaker 2>State fired Mike Gun to you a while back. They're

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:19.320
<v Speaker 2>a mess. What if anything is there to be wary

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.839
<v Speaker 2>of with Oklahoma State Saturday night? It is their homecoming

0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:24.600
<v Speaker 2>and under the lights Saturday night.

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:29.960
<v Speaker 4>I guess maybe that's it. This is a bad football team.

0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 4>They're just they're not they they they're bad on offense.

0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 4>They they don't gain a lot of yards, they're bad

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:42.560
<v Speaker 4>on defense, they don't tackle real well. Sure, maybe you

0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 4>could look at this and say, like, is it a

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:48.320
<v Speaker 4>trap game? I think Central Florida was the trap game.

0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.440
<v Speaker 4>You're coming off Kansas and Iowa State. Yep, you know

0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:56.560
<v Speaker 4>it's at home. It was kind of a sleepy noon game.

0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.079
<v Speaker 4>Like I don't hate the noon games as much as

0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 4>most people, but I think in back to back weekends,

0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:08.120
<v Speaker 4>that second one doesn't have maybe the juice that the

0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:11.760
<v Speaker 4>first one does. And I thought that was the drap

0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:15.800
<v Speaker 4>team Cincinnati got through that. I don't think Oklahoma State's

0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 4>going to catch this team sleeping. I would, I mean homecoming,

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:24.480
<v Speaker 4>the energy, Maybe it's close early, but I think there's

0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:28.280
<v Speaker 4>just a pretty vast talent disparity between these two teams,

0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 4>and I would be surprised if you're looking at a

0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:32.319
<v Speaker 4>close team in the third quarter.

0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.360
<v Speaker 2>All right, tell everybody what they can find. A Bearcat

0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Journal dot Com.

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.480
<v Speaker 4>Like great stuff. We've got all the Oklahoma States stuff up.

0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:44.720
<v Speaker 4>Getting ready for that game on Saturday. Got a bunch

0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:49.320
<v Speaker 4>of information on Chilyn Haynes and his injury and what

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:52.800
<v Speaker 4>that means for the basketball team. I'm getting ready on

0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.960
<v Speaker 4>Friday to head up to Ann Arbor to watch the

0:11:56.000 --> 0:12:00.480
<v Speaker 4>Bearcats take on the Michigan Wolverines and exhibition basketball action.

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:03.959
<v Speaker 4>So basketball season is right around the corner. You can

0:12:04.000 --> 0:12:06.720
<v Speaker 4>get all of that and more in the best place,

0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.720
