Speaker 2: Longnecks in Richwood's still time for you to get here.
Speaker 2: We roll till nine. We've got plenty of ground to
Speaker 2: cover between now and nine.
Speaker 3: Let's talk. You see bearcats.
Speaker 2: They had to still Water, Oklahoma Saturday night to face
Speaker 2: Oklahoma State Bearcats are number twenty four in the Country
Speaker 2: winners of what four straight went away from Bowl eligibility,
Speaker 2: but with much bigger goals in mind than that they
Speaker 2: are three and oh tied for first in the Big twelve.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about it with the man from Bearcat Journal
Speaker 2: Bearcat Journal dot com.
Speaker 3: That would be Chad Brendle. How are you.
Speaker 4: Five straight plans?
Speaker 3: I don't want a short change, no one.
Speaker 4: I mean, I know we try to erase that Northwestern
Speaker 4: State game from our memory, but.
Speaker 5: It does County's count WNN column.
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't want to spend a ton of time
Speaker 2: on Saturday, but you'd be perfect to do this for
Speaker 2: those who did not follow our watch and they see
Speaker 2: twenty to eleven against UCF, give a little explanation of
Speaker 2: just how disjointed that second half was. I laughed last
Speaker 2: night on his Coach show, Scott said, at times it
Speaker 2: was like watching paint dry because his offense was standing
Speaker 2: on the sidelines while UCF just held the ball and
Speaker 2: held the ball and went on like nineteen played and
Speaker 2: just it was amazing the disparity in plays and time
Speaker 2: of possession.
Speaker 4: Lands. I think one stat tells the whole story, and
Speaker 4: it's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen
Speaker 4: in football, Rocky, I need to know. I don't know
Speaker 4: if you know this or not, but I need your
Speaker 4: reaction to this. If you do not, seventeen plays, forty yards,
Speaker 4: nine minutes, it.
Speaker 3: Ended in a punt, and you see it, it's no point.
Speaker 5: It seems impossible. I would have to go back and
Speaker 5: watch it myself to believe it.
Speaker 4: Yes, seventeen plays, nine minutes, forty yards and seventeen plays.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I went to public school in Kentucky,
Speaker 4: so I'm not great at math. But I don't know
Speaker 4: how that happened. It doesn't make any sense. And it's two.
Speaker 5: The way, two point three yards peoplay.
Speaker 3: Somehow I get get the first down?
Speaker 4: I don't know. Look, you want to get running to
Speaker 4: do that?
Speaker 2: Kind of man that they won ninety plays to UCS
Speaker 2: forty eight plays.
Speaker 3: Unbelievable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, that's kind of what you see.
Speaker 4: They don't want to they don't want the disparity to
Speaker 4: be like this. People, I think take it out of
Speaker 4: context when I talk about this, But UC wants you
Speaker 4: to stin your wheels like they They want to keep
Speaker 4: everything in front. They want to make you move down
Speaker 4: the field. Two point three yards at a time and
Speaker 4: they're okay with it like that. That's how that defense
Speaker 4: is designed. Because remember this defense was built by the
Speaker 4: Iowa Matt Campbell and the Iowa state staff to slow
Speaker 4: down the Big twelve offenses like a decade ago when
Speaker 4: you looked and every score was like fifty three to
Speaker 4: forty eight, right, Like, that's why this defense was designed.
Speaker 4: It's what it's designed to do. It was just on
Speaker 4: the extreme on Saturday because you see just spun their
Speaker 4: tires and spun their tires and spun their tires and
Speaker 4: really until that's the you know, the touchdown that shouldn't
Speaker 4: have happened. The second one in two weeks fit three points,
Speaker 4: Like all of those are all of those plays and
Speaker 4: they had three points. And that's what Tysonvite wants to
Speaker 4: do to you.
Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, Chad.
Speaker 5: Before the season, the national conversation about quarterbacks included names
Speaker 5: like Cage Club Nick and arch Manning and Drew Aller
Speaker 5: and now here we are halfway through October and two
Speaker 5: names no one had on the radar. One I'll give
Speaker 5: some credit to my Irish CJ. Carr is playing out
Speaker 5: of his mind, but also Brendan so is being talked about,
Speaker 5: you know, from a national standpoint, about how well he's
Speaker 5: playing right now, describe that well.
Speaker 4: First off, cars playing great, big hot tip to my
Speaker 4: guy Mike Denbrock, who if you remember, this fan base
Speaker 4: was really hard on Mike Denbrock to the point that
Speaker 4: I used to jokingly when he was walking off the
Speaker 4: practice field, I do him just to get him a
Speaker 4: sense of how well liked he was in the fan base.
Speaker 4: And he coached the Heisman Trophy winner and for a
Speaker 4: national championship. He's pretty good. Yeah, Sorsby's what you look for, right.
Speaker 4: He's got size, He's got a big arm, he can move,
Speaker 4: he can run when you need him to run when
Speaker 4: you ask him to run. Like all of the things
Speaker 4: that you look for in a high level quarterback, Brendan
Speaker 4: Sorosby possesses those things. I would say personally, I need
Speaker 4: to see a little bit more from him when it
Speaker 4: comes to getting out of a cold spell. Right, he'll
Speaker 4: get it like he is hot. When he is hot,
Speaker 4: he is scorching hot. But it feels like the minute
Speaker 4: that dips a little bit, you get the second half.
Speaker 4: Versus Iowa State, you get the second half. Versus Central Florida,
Speaker 4: where I need to see him be able to kick
Speaker 4: it back into gear a little bit. But in terms
Speaker 4: of you know what you're looking for in a quarterback
Speaker 4: like he's out of Central Casting, I'm.
Speaker 2: Going to ask you what I asked Keegan last week
Speaker 2: when he filled in for you, and it's for the
Speaker 2: casual fan who from AFAR would be looking and saying,
Speaker 2: all right, last year they beat Arizona State to get
Speaker 2: to five and two, and I kind of got excited.
Speaker 3: Then they lost their final five.
Speaker 2: What, in your opinion, is different about this team this
Speaker 2: year that won't lead to what happened last year.
Speaker 4: A couple things. One, if you go back and watch
Speaker 4: those five games last year, their special teams was an
Speaker 4: unmitigated disaster at the end of last season, just terrible,
Speaker 4: and that cost them games. They couldn't cover, they couldn't kick,
Speaker 4: they couldn't punt, they couldn't make field goals, like the
Speaker 4: whole operation fell apart. They couldn't catch. Remember how many
Speaker 4: times they'd touch a bouncing ball and all of a
Speaker 4: sudden the other teams got it at their own five
Speaker 4: yard line and you're wondering, what the heck just happened.
Speaker 4: I think that is a big, big part of it
Speaker 4: is their winning field position, and they're winning some of
Speaker 4: that in between stuff that in conference play is so important.
Speaker 4: The other one they're not turning it over. They have
Speaker 4: done a phenomenal job taking care of the football, and
Speaker 4: I think that is one of It's not maybe the
Speaker 4: biggest difference this year and last year is last year
Speaker 4: they would just give it away inexplicably at times on
Speaker 4: plays It just didn't make any sense at all, And
Speaker 4: next thing you know, it's seven points for the other team.
Speaker 4: Momentum shifts and what was a three point game is
Speaker 4: all of a sudden the seventeen point games and they
Speaker 4: are not doing that. So a lot of it is
Speaker 4: just limiting the stuff where they were shooting themselves in
Speaker 4: the foot. And when you play clean football and you've
Speaker 4: got some really good players on your team, it makes
Speaker 4: life a heck of a lot easier.
Speaker 5: Okay, and Chad to that point, and look, no one
Speaker 5: knows this team better than you. Is there any thing
Speaker 5: you can point to that Scott Saderfield specifically is doing
Speaker 5: where that he wasn't doing last year that you can
Speaker 5: look to and now, wow, it seems won five games,
Speaker 5: and this is because Sadderfield is doing this better or different.
Speaker 4: I don't know if anything sticks out. I think maybe
Speaker 4: they're not having and this could just be a player's thing.
Speaker 4: It's not as much a Sadderfield thing. They're not trying
Speaker 4: to get as cute on offense like that, you're not
Speaker 4: seeing as much east west, You're not seeing you know,
Speaker 4: try and trick plays like. They don't feel at times
Speaker 4: like they're they're searching for something. They feel pretty confident
Speaker 4: and Scott's the play caller. They feel pretty confident in
Speaker 4: what they're dialing up right now. And I think a
Speaker 4: lot of that goes to a much better receiver Correps,
Speaker 4: a better offensive line about the run and the pass game,
Speaker 4: Soresby with an extra year. Like, I think it's just
Speaker 4: an overall maturation process that we've seen from last year
Speaker 4: to this year, and Saderfield gets the credit for that.
Speaker 4: So I don't know if it's anything drastic, but I
Speaker 4: think it's definitely visible watching the program take a step
Speaker 4: where you're not scratching your head and going what was that?
Speaker 4: Why was that? I don't understand the like it doesn't
Speaker 4: feel it's confusing the right word lands. Like last year,
Speaker 4: a lot of the stuff they did felt confusing, and
Speaker 4: they don't see that this year.
Speaker 2: Last question, look ahead to Saturday night, still Water. Oklahoma
Speaker 2: State fired Mike Gun to you a while back. They're
Speaker 2: a mess. What if anything is there to be wary
Speaker 2: of with Oklahoma State Saturday night? It is their homecoming
Speaker 2: and under the lights Saturday night.
Speaker 4: I guess maybe that's it. This is a bad football team.
Speaker 4: They're just they're not they they they're bad on offense.
Speaker 4: They they don't gain a lot of yards, they're bad
Speaker 4: on defense, they don't tackle real well. Sure, maybe you
Speaker 4: could look at this and say, like, is it a
Speaker 4: trap game? I think Central Florida was the trap game.
Speaker 4: You're coming off Kansas and Iowa State. Yep, you know
Speaker 4: it's at home. It was kind of a sleepy noon game.
Speaker 4: Like I don't hate the noon games as much as
Speaker 4: most people, but I think in back to back weekends,
Speaker 4: that second one doesn't have maybe the juice that the
Speaker 4: first one does. And I thought that was the drap
Speaker 4: team Cincinnati got through that. I don't think Oklahoma State's
Speaker 4: going to catch this team sleeping. I would, I mean homecoming,
Speaker 4: the energy, Maybe it's close early, but I think there's
Speaker 4: just a pretty vast talent disparity between these two teams,
Speaker 4: and I would be surprised if you're looking at a
Speaker 4: close team in the third quarter.
Speaker 2: All right, tell everybody what they can find. A Bearcat
Speaker 2: Journal dot Com.
Speaker 4: Like great stuff. We've got all the Oklahoma States stuff up.
Speaker 4: Getting ready for that game on Saturday. Got a bunch
Speaker 4: of information on Chilyn Haynes and his injury and what
Speaker 4: that means for the basketball team. I'm getting ready on
Speaker 4: Friday to head up to Ann Arbor to watch the
Speaker 4: Bearcats take on the Michigan Wolverines and exhibition basketball action.
Speaker 4: So basketball season is right around the corner. You can
Speaker 4: get all of that and more in the best place,
Speaker 4: the best corner of the Internet for uc beartech coverage.
Speaker 3: You're the man. Appreciate the insight. We'll talk next week
Speaker 4: All right, Thanks, Ellis, have a great one.
