Speaker 3: that in our number two. Let's cut right to it.

17
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 3: It's a shorter show today. We finish at two thirty.

18
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 3: Kentucky basketball plays early. They have a longer pregame show

19
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 3: that bumps everything else on the schedule up, so we

Speaker 3: are out at two thirty this afternoon. Tom Gallader will

21

Speaker 3: number one we'll make our high school, college, and NFL picks.

25
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 3: And when I say we, I mean myself and Drew

26
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: Drew in for Austin today.

27
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 2: Drew, how are you.

28
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 4: I'm fantastic, Tony. Happy Friday to you.

29
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 3: Happy Friday. I am ready to run through a wall

30
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: with snot bubbles. That's right as a guy that shickster

31
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 3: would say. As Wes Millard said, I got goosebumps just

32
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 3: thinking about it. When it comes to this particular Cincinnati

33
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 3: sports weekend. If you've been living under a rock this week,

34
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 3: allow me to elaborate. The mecca of high school football

35
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 3: in Ohio takes center stage at pay Corps Stadium tonight.

36
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 3: They are nearing twenty thousand tickets already sold for Elder

37
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 3: and Saint X taking place at pay Corps this evening.

38
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 3: As if that's not big enough for downtown Cincinnati, how

39
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 3: about Cincinnati and Louisville a team in Louisville coached by

40
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 3: former Elder panther Pat Kelsey, who brings in the six

41
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 3: rank Louisville Cardinals, who I believe have a legit chance

42
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 3: to cut down the nets in March. They are final

43
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 3: four national championship. Good you see, and Wes Miller look

44
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 3: for his biggest win of his tenure. It could be

45
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 3: the marquee win of the West Miller tenure. We'll see

46
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 3: what happens tonight. Right now, Louisville installed. It opened at

47
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 3: seven and a half. It's up to nine and a half,

48
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 3: a nine and a half point favorite. All are the

49
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 3: Louisville Cardinals. I believe Drew, that Jonas Brothers are in

50
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 3: town over the weekend as well as if things aren't

51
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 3: busy enough, the Jonas Brothers are in town. I'm sure

52
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 3: I've got friends in my group chat that are going

53
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 3: to the Jonas Brothers outside of anything else this weekend. Pat,

54
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 3: I'm talking to you Saturday. How about Big Noon Kickoff, Drew.

55
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 3: Big Noon Kickoff takes place Saturday. That's in the morning,

56
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: and then you gotta wait until the evening. It's called

57
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 3: nip at night. It's Senior Night. It's the eleventh rank

58
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 3: BYU Cougars, coming in as a two and a half

59
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 3: point favorite to the Cincinnati Bearcats. Bearcats losers of two

60
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: in a row and outside chance. The window is still

61
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 3: cracked for the Bearcats to make the Big twelve title game.

62
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 3: They don't control their own destiny, but they have a

63
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 3: shot to upset BYU Tomorrow night at Nippert Stadium. And then,

64
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 3: of course, the eyes of the sports world, the football world,

65
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 3: whether it's football or football that you're interested in, you

66
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 3: got FC Cincinnati hosting what some believe to be the

67
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 3: greatest soccer player ever to grace the.

68
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 2: Pitch in leonn l. Messi.

69
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 3: He comes to town Sunday night, and then on Sunday

70
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 3: afternoon at pay Corp Stadium, the Bengals host the hottest

71
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 3: team in the National Football League, winners of eight straight games.

72
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 3: That's tied with the longest streak in the National Football

73
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 3: League with the Denver Broncos. Drake May, according to many,

74
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 3: a co favorite to win the MVP. His Patriots come

75
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 3: into pay Corp Stadium and of course Drew. The conversation

76
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 3: now shifts to what about Joe Burrow.

77
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 5: Things are moving quickly on that front. Apparently there are

78
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 5: some betting props you can put out on Joe Burrow

79
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 5: right now.

80
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 3: Now, I'm one to believe that Vegas usually knows what's

81
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 3: going on.

82
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 4: They usually do.

83
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 5: So where there's smoke, there's fire, and all signs are

84
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 5: indicating that Burrow is going to get cleared and is

85
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 5: going to play what about four games earlier than originally projected.

86
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 3: Now, what's interesting, Fandel right now has betting on Joe

87
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: Burrow to forty three and a half is the number.

88
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 3: So you can actually make prop bets on Joe Burrow

89
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 3: this weekend. But Drew Kelsey, Conway and others are reporting

90
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: as they are at the open media portion of practice

91
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 3: that Joe Burrow didn't go through.

92
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: Team stretch with the team.

93
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: Oh now, he was by himself with a helmet on,

94
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 3: doing work on the other side of the field. Joe

95
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 3: Flacco and the rest of the quarterbacks are stretching if

96
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 3: you look around to others. Paul Danner Junior ads that

97
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow did, however, participate in the low red zone

98
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 3: drill that was starting as the media was asked to

99
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: ask to exit practice. Now, Zach Taylor will speak to

100
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 3: members of the media within thirty minutes from now, so

101
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 3: we'll have a little bit more of a clear understanding

102
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 3: as to what's happening. But as of right now, we

103
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: got a lot going on this week.

104
00:05:58,880 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 4: Interesting.

105
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 5: Is Zach Taylor trying to play the curtain game, like

106
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 5: are we going to start Joe Burrow or not? Is

107
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 5: that a shrink up Zach taylor sleeve this weekend?

108
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: Maybe they're maybe they're trying to throw something to Mike Rabel.

109
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 4: Some tells me Mike Vrabel has been letting his guys know.

110
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 2: Hey, Burrow, I pready think there's any hiding.

111
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know what's happened. Don't think. I don't

112
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 4: think you're gonna sneak one by Vrabel.

113
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 2: So look, I'll give I've done it.

114
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 3: This week, I'll give my final thoughts on the Joe

115
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 3: Burrow situation, and we'll update you with anything else we need.

116
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 3: Charlie Goldsmith will have some clarification at one o'clock. Here's

117
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 3: my thought. I put my trust the training staff. I

118
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 3: would not have made it to the levels that I

119
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 3: made it if not for Bob man, Jean and the

120
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 3: other trainers at the University of Cincinnati because everyone when

121
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 3: it gets to a point, is pushing you to play.

122
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 3: Everyone is in your ear, players, coaches, are you playing?

123
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 2: Can you go? We need you? Blah blah blah. It happens.

124
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: I counted on my support staff and the trainers to

125
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,799
Speaker 3: let me know is it safe for me to go play.

126
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 3: I'm good with dealing with pain. Pain management is fine.

127
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: There are ways to mitigate that as well. Can I

128
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 3: do any further damage if I go play? That's what

129
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 3: I needed from the trainer. That is what Joe Burrow

130
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 3: needs from the trainer. If I'm Joe Burrow, I'm saying,

131
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 3: if a three hundred pound defensive lineman steps on my toe,

132
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 3: what will happen? Will I be okay? And if the

133
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 3: answer is yes, and it's just about dealing with pain,

134
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 3: go play. If it's a cloudy yes, or you can

135
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 3: play but you can't really do any under center stuff

136
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 3: or you can't push off, then I have to take

137
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 3: into consideration, Drew, that you're also playing this game without

138
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase, which means, in all likelihood you're gonna be

139
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 3: asked to hold onto the ball a little bit longer

140
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 3: than normal. You're also gonna do a quick turnaround you're

141
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 3: gonna play Sunday and then you're gonna play the following

142
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 3: Thursday on the road. That is an extremely tough schedule,

143
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 3: especially for someone coming off an injury. So all I

144
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 3: need to know, well, is Joe Burrow healthy and he's free?

145
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 3: Is he free of limitations and free of suffering a

146
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 3: major set back to the toe? And also and also

147
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 3: in rehabbing the toe, are there other parts vulnerable? Is

148
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,679
Speaker 3: calv vulnerable because he's put more time on the foot.

149
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 3: If those things all check out, then go play. But

150
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 3: if there's a question, I think you gotta be really

151
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: careful how you navigate the next few hours.

152
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 5: Agreed, And you know, it's not an exact comparison because

153
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 5: Pardy's injury was a little bit different than Joe's. It

154
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 5: wasn't quite as serious. But Brock Purdy has missed eight games,

155
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 5: Joe's miss nine. Yeah, so Joe had surgery. Yeah, Joe

156
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 5: had surgery. So he's either you know, he's really pushing

157
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 5: and he's done a really good job of taking care

158
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 5: of himself. And he's a phoenix and yeah he's the wolverine.

159
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 5: Basically he's got regenitive powers. It seems like so, but

160
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 5: it'll be interesting to see. I just I can't get

161
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 5: past the feeling of, you know, if I was a

162
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 5: Bengals fan and I would want Joe Burrow to play,

163
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 5: and but I can't get past the thought and the

164
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 5: visual of him going out there and something going wrong

165
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 5: and how catastrophic and how second like second guessing everyone

166
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 5: would be of this entire situation. But it's ultimately up

167
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 5: to Joe, like, if he feels like he can play

168
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 5: and he's healthy enough to play, and he'll, you know,

169
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 5: he makes the team better than you know. He's gonna

170
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 5: go out and play. That's who he is. That's how's

171
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 5: who he's always been. So it'll be interesting to see

172
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 5: how it goes. I hope he stays healthy because I

173
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 5: I think football is more interesting when Joe Burrow's playing football.

174
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 5: I enjoy watching him play football. So you know, hopefully

175
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 5: he goes out, plays well, stays healthy, and makes it

176
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 5: to that Thanksgiving Night game, because all of a sudden,

177
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 5: that game becomes way more interesting if it's Joe Burrow

178
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 5: versus Lamar Jackson on Thanksgiving Night.

179
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 3: A massive, massive weekend ahead, we'll talk more about the Bengals.

180
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 3: We'll talk about their path to victory. We'll talk about

181
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 3: the importance of tonight and tomorrow night for you. Sports

182
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,959
Speaker 3: quick note Thursday night football hand up, Drew. I'll give

183
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 3: credit to the Houston Texans. I knew they were a

184
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 3: good defense. I was not familiar with that style of

185
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 3: defense in which they played with against Josh Allen last night.

186
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 3: The Bills could not get comfortable last night, eight sacks.

187
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 3: A lot of people viewed Josh Allen as a mobile

188
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 3: quarterback that can avoid pressures. Josh Allen last night two

189
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 3: interceptions and eight sacks. Davis Mills and the Houston Texans

190
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 3: move on to six and five with a win against

191
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills twenty three to nineteen. That to me,

192
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 3: was all about how dominant that Texans front is, how

193
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 3: relentless that defense is. With the Houston Texans, kudos to them.

194
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 3: That was an impressive win on Thursday night football.

195
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 5: Hold on, I'm just receiving word that Josh Allen has

196
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,319
Speaker 5: been sacked again again by will By Will Hint.

197
00:10:55,320 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 3: Again, and it does nothing but muddy up the AFC

198
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 3: playoff picture even more.

199
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, the AFC playoff picture is pretty pretty muddied up

200
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 5: right now. As you were saying, currently outside looking in.

201
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 5: The Texans off of that win last night, are the

202
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 5: eight seed, the Chiefs, and the Ravens.

203
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 2: Unbelievable.

204
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 5: Those are probably you're in the hunt teams. Yes, because

205
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 5: the eleventh seed is the Dolphins. Their current playoff probability

206
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 5: is one percent. So your playoff teams as it stands now,

207
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 5: the Broncos and Patriots tied at nine to two. Broncos

208
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 5: have the one seed currently, the Colts at eight and

209
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 5: two leading the AFC South.

210
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 2: They play the Chiefs this week.

211
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 5: They do the Steelers at six and four leading the

212
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 5: AFC North. Your three wild card teams are the Chargers,

213
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 5: the Bills, and the Jaguars.

214
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 4: So those you.

215
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 5: Got ten teams or ten teams here, you're in the

216
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 5: hunt teams Texans, Chiefs, Ravens. If you had to pick

217
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 5: one team of these five, the Bills, the Jaguars, the Texans,

218
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 5: the Chiefs, and the Ravens, who will be on the

219
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 5: outside looking in come.

220
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 3: The end of week eighteen, I think it's the Chiefs. Really,

221
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 3: They got to play the Colts this weekend. They still

222
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 3: have to play at Dallas. Who's playing better? They have

223
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 3: to play that Texans defense that I watched last night

224
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 3: they still have to play the Chargers in the Broncos

225
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 3: and they're sitting at five and five. Yeah, like that

226
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 3: that to me, as crazy as it sounds, there are

227
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 3: a lot of teams above them. The margin for air

228
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 3: is minimal for the Kansas City Chiefs right now, and

229
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 3: I just don't know if they're that good.

230
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 5: And according to the NFL dot Com Playoff picture, their

231
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 5: playoff probability if they lose this week is twenty seven percent.

232
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is crazy because there are still a lot

233
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 3: of people out there as view them as one of

234
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 3: the top two or three favorites to win the Lombardy.

235
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 4: Yep. It is one of those things that if they

236
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 4: sneak in, they.

237
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 2: Watch out, watch out without a doubt.

238
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,359
Speaker 3: NFC is also an interesting playoff race right now because

239
00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 3: I think a team that can win at all. The

240
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 3: Detroit Lyons on the outside looking in. Detroit is an

241
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 3: eight seed. Carolina at six and five is a nine seed.

242
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 3: You still have the Bears seven and three, Tampa, Seattle,

243
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 3: Green Bay, San Francisco, the Rams, the Eagles. NFC is loaded.

244
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 3: There is going to be a good team, a legitimate

245
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 3: title contender that is not going to make it in

246
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 3: the NFC because that is such a good conference.

247
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 4: That's right.

248
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 5: Detroit's got work to do, and they've only got so

249
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 5: many you know, like we were talking about before the show,

250
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 5: they're gonna run out.

251
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 2: Of weeks here, They're running out of chances.

252
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 5: They get the Giants this week, then green Bay Dallas,

253
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 5: they still got to play the Rams, the Steelers, and

254
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 5: then two they finish up with two road games at

255
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 5: Minnesota and at Chicago buckle in. So you know, Detroit's

256
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 5: kind of got to get it in gear here a

257
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 5: little bit. And if they want to make the playoffs.

258
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 5: Now you're looking at the probabilities here, and I know

259
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 5: people don't really like probabilities. I'm just using it for

260
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 5: a point of reference. The Bears are currently at a

261
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 5: fifty nine percent chance to make the playoffs at the

262
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 5: three seed. If they lose this week to the Steelers,

263
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 5: that drops to forty seven. So I think a lot

264
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 5: of people are expecting the Bears to kind of be

265
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 5: the one that drops, yeah, regress to the mean, and

266
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,199
Speaker 5: be the team that probably drops out of there and

267
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 5: gets the lines begin.

268
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 3: Let's take a break our first of the day. It

269

275
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: this violent? Speaking of the Patriots, I wonder how I

276
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: would look in a powder day. Probably not good. Coverage

00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: Chilly here and now remember one.

285
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 3: Thank you for listening on ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station.

286
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: All right, I if I had to make the call

287
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 3: right now, I think Joe Burrow is gonna play and

288
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 3: we'll hear and we'll get more of an understanding when

289
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: we do hear anything from Zach Taylor but let's assume

290
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 3: for this conversation here drew that Joe Burrow is going

291
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 3: to play on Sunday. If so, what is then the

292
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 3: path to victory against the New England Patriots. Like I

293
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 3: I've watched enough of the Patriots this year. The most

294
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 3: impressive thing about Drake May is his ability to slide

295
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 3: and move and keep plays alive in the pocket, almost nonchalant.

296
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 3: He's just he's so good it's it's not even teachable

297
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 3: what he does in the pocket. And they are so

298
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 3: effective and how they operate on the offensive side of

299
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 3: the ball. They're also effected because of what they've done.

300
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 3: They drafted Will Campbell on the offensive line this year.

301
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 3: They drafted Jared Wilson on the offensive line.

302
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 2: This year.

303
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: They went and got Trevon Henderson, who has been dominant

304
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 3: in the last couple of weeks for the New England Patriots.

305
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 3: They drafted well. They were aggressive in the offseason in

306
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 3: free agency, and they've built their roster in a way

307
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 3: that it just feels like everything in their personnel matches

308
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 3: the scheme in which they want to play with. They

309
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 3: also moved on from assets during the season. They moved

310
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 3: on from Kyle Duggar, who just scored a touchdown last

311
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 3: week for the Patriots. But they have identified who's with us,

312
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 3: who's not part of the plans? What can we get

313
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 3: in return? And they are moving in the right direction

314
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: and they are well ahead of schedule.

315
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 4: They sure are.

316
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 5: And Drake May has been outstanding this year. Absolutely, it's

317
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 5: hard to fathom that you and this goes back to

318
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 5: just week one being wacky, the seam loss of the

319
00:16:55,560 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 5: Raiders that feels like a century ago, yep. But have

320
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 5: looked really, really good the last several weeks. Drake May

321
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 5: is playing at a high level, and Traveon Henderson obviously

322
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 5: is really starting to get going. With the injury to

323
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 5: Ramond Dre Stevenson. I think the path the victory for

324
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 5: the Bengals is, you know, pointing the obvious here, but

325
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 5: you got to protect Joe, give Joe a chance, keep

326
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 5: keep running the ball the way you have these last

327
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 5: several weeks. Feels like Chase Brown has really started to

328
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 5: find a rhythm in the running game. The line's been

329
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 5: playing better, so you know, kind of ball control, take

330
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 5: care of it, don't turn it over. I feel like

331
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 5: the Pats are a good team at creating takeaways. So yeah,

332
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 5: and then obviously, you know with this Bengals defense, it's

333
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 5: easier said than done, but you just you gotta contain

334
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 5: the Pats run game. They're twentieth in the NFL and running,

335
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 5: but I feel like in the last several weeks, with

336
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 5: the breakout of Traveon Henderson, they've been much better. So

337
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 5: and when the Pats get their run game going, that

338
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 5: is when Drake May can really start to get into

339
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 5: a risk of plaction past are stefant. He's starting to

340
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 5: develop that rapport with us to Von Diggs and the Patriots.

341
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 5: Other skill guys are starting to step up as well.

342
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 5: Mccollins is a deep ball threat. So just well rounded, Yeah, rounded,

343
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 5: well coached, well round coached, especially well coached.

344
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 3: For me, it's can you limit the possessions that the

345
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 3: defense is going to be on the field. Yeah, If

346
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow is going to play, can you protect them

347
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 3: a little bit more? Can you run the ball effectively

348
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 3: even if you're not going to be under center? Which

349
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 3: worries me because this team under center has been successful,

350
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 3: They were not a successful running team when they were

351
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 3: in shotgun. Does Joe's toe if he plays, limit how

352
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 3: much this team can go under center. That worries me.

353
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 3: If you think about how he's got to push off

354
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 3: that toe. That could be an issue for Joe Burrow

355
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 3: going forward. That to me is a worry. And look,

356
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 3: I know that it was a loss, and I know

357
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 3: it got out of hand, but against Pittsburgh at times

358
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 3: the defense did get stops in the first half. Can

359
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 3: you bottle that up? Can you tackle better? Can you

360
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 3: play a little bit more aggressive? If you take away

361
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 3: the points last week that were scored on the defensive

362
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 3: side for Pitcher, the defense gave up twenty points in

363
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 3: that loss to the Steelers. Can you bottle any of

364
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 3: that up and get that moving going forward and give

365
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 3: yourself a small, small chance to win this football game?

366
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 5: And another thing is is when you have that chance,

367
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 5: like if you keep this game close, like say the

368
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 5: Pats are up six in the fourth quarter with about

369
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 5: ten minutes to go and Drake May comes onto the

370
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 5: field and it's one of those moments where can your

371
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 5: defense get a critical stop in a critical situation of

372
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 5: the football.

373
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 4: Game which they couldn't which they couldn't do against Pittsburgh.

374
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 5: You know, they they come out the down eight Pittsburgh

375
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 5: as the ball and they go on a long, lengthy

376
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 5: scoring drive. Convert on a couple third and long earn

377
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 5: eleven third and sixteen third and seven that when you

378
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 5: get into that situation, can you get your get them

379
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 5: off the field to get the ball back into your

380
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 5: quarterback's hands to potentially take the lead with four or

381
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 5: so minutes to go. And if you do that, then

382
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 5: you have to do it again. You have to get

383
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 5: that another stuff. You got to prevent them from getting

384
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 5: into field goal range because you know, all they need,

385
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 5: all they would need is a field goal in that situation.

386
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 5: So it's can the Bengals defense make that critical stop

387
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 5: within the football game to give themselves a chance to win.

388
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 3: That Bengals defense, by the way, has allowed twenty seven

389
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 3: points or more in nine consecutive games. That is tied

390
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 3: with the nineteen sixty four Broncos and the twenty twenty

391
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 3: Chargers for the longest single season stretch in NFL history.

392
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: So twenty seven or more from the Patriots adds another

393
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 3: record that this Bengals defense is on pace to shatter

394
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 3: as well. Let's take a break, let's come back. More

Speaker 3: with any for your next tailgate or get to together

417
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,199
Speaker 3: over the holiday season. Thanks to Win Schulers. We have

418
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 3: an update from Zach Taylor from pay Course Stadium. Here,

419
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 3: Drew Zach Taylor says sounder no, because it's not a

420
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 3: huge one. Zach has said that no decision has been made.

421
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 3: Of course, on Joe Burrow. He'll be listed as questionable

422
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 3: versus the New England Patriots. I believe that means he

423
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 3: has up until four pm on Saturday to be moved

424
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 3: to the active roster. Zach Taylor did say that Burrow

425
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,719
Speaker 3: has done everything he can to get back and limited

426
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 3: today is split reps with Joe Flacco. Zach Taylor is

427
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 3: comfortable waiting as long as possible to make the official decision.

428
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 3: Do with that what you want. I still think he's

429
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 3: gonna play. But that is the latest update as it

430
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 3: relates to Zach Taylor. We'll get more on the Bengals

431
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 3: from Charlie Goldsmith as we go along. We got a

432
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 3: few minutes here to take a phone call. Let's do

433
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 3: so John is calling in.

434
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 9: Hey John, Hey Tony, Hey Drew Friday. How are you?

435
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 4: John?

436
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 2: All right?

437
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 9: I think he's definitely gonna play. And I think, first

438
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 9: of all, he's a lunatic and associate path that. I

439
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 9: mean that as a compliment, right, because you know Tony,

440
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 9: how your quarterbacks are wired. You know you're stubborn, you

441
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 9: want to get out there, you want to play. This

442
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 9: is his team, and I think there's a lot of

443
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 9: reasons why he wants to play against the Patriots. And

444
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 9: I kind of mentioned it a couple of weeks ago

445
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 9: when he called that Albert Breer was on the morning

446
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 9: show in Boston and kind of hinted that he was

447
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 9: going to.

448
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 10: Play this game.

449
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 9: First of all, the loss that he talks about the

450
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 9: most from last year was against the Patriots sixteen to

451
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 9: ten in the season opener. He blames himself for that loss.

452
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 9: Of course, he blomes himself every loss. That's the way

453
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 9: he leads, and that's why he's an awesome quarterback. He

454
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 9: wants to exact revenge against the Patriots. Also, you know,

455
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 9: I think these veteran quarterbacks and now he's a veteran,

456
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 9: established great quarterbacks like Burrow Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson.

457
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 9: They see Drake May as the young gun that's getting

458
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 9: a lot of love of the NFL, and they're like, hey,

459
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 9: wait a second, we're still you know, we're still pretty

460
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 9: dying good.

461
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 4: We're going to show you that.

462
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 9: That we're still at our level and then hest to

463
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 9: show Drake made that he's still the boss. We saw this.

464
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 9: I remember thirty years ago Dan Marino came back from

465
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 9: an injury. He played Drew Bledsoney. He outgunned him, yea,

466
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 9: and they were about ten years of pionage. So I

467
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 9: think that that's in his mindset as well. Also, there's

468
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 9: also it he'll be quick with this. There's a narrative

469
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,719
Speaker 9: out there that Mike Drabel owns Joe Burrow, which is false.

470
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 11: Borrows three and.

471
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 9: One, including a playoff win against Tennessee when Frabel was

472
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 9: that coach. And I also think he wants to just

473
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 9: show leadership. He can't be happy with what Jamar Chase did. Like,

474
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 9: here's a guy who's a month ahead of schedule, Jamar Chase.

475
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 9: Another captain is spitting at someone gets suspended. Where the

476
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,439
Speaker 9: hell of Trey Henderson? Has anybody's seen him? Another captain

477
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 9: that seems to have, you know, punted on the season.

478
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 9: And I think that right now Barrow wants to show

479
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 9: this is what leadership is about.

480
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 10: You work your butt off, you get out there.

481
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 9: And also the fact that people say that he is

482
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 9: a product of Jamar Chase. Well, in twenty twenty two

483
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 9: he played four games without Jamar Chase, the Bengals went

484
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 9: three to one. He threw for eleven hundred and twenty yards,

485
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 9: eight touchdowns, two interceptions, seventy percent completion percentage, a one

486
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 9: oway passer. He's just fine with whoever's out there.

487
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 2: Yep.

488
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 3: It feels like and John, I appreciate your phone, can

489
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 3: have a great weekend. It feels like this is an

490
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 3: opportunity as well for Joe Burrow to say, hey, I

491
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 3: know a lot of people are talking about Drake May,

492
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 3: don't forget about me. And to John's point, the leadership

493
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 3: does become a big part of this as well.

494
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's it's amazing how time flies. Joe Burrow

495
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 5: and he rattled off Alan Lamar Burrow and Mahomes like

496
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 5: those guys are the established vets. It does not feel

497
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 5: like very long ago where those guys were the young guns, yep,

498
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 5: making their way up. And you know, Drake May, does

499
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 5: you know I actually think that that quarterback class, those

500
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 5: guys in their second year, Daniels, Williams and May. I

501
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 5: think those three guys are going to have long careers

502
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 5: in the NFL.

503
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am, I'm one hundred percent with you. Brian

504
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 3: is also calling in.

505
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 2: Hey, Brian, Hi, Terry.

506
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 7: How are you doing, sir?

507
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 10: Good?

508
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 2: How are you all doing well?

509
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 10: It's a good day to be a duck.

510
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 4: I can tell you that that's right.

511
00:25:58,520 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 8: So my call.

512
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 7: I'm not going to talk about Zach Taylor. I mean,

513
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 7: there's nothing to say but there. But can you believe

514
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 7: I mean, we're Tesse's ownership groups thinking with Mike Rabel's

515
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 7: success and then getting moving on from them, and they're

516
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 7: just an absolute gumbster fire of a team, Like how

517
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 7: could I mean, they didn't realize that Mike could coach

518
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 7: like he was really good for a number of years

519
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 7: and I don't know exactly what happened why he lost success,

520
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 7: but I'm sure as injury related and they moved on

521
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 7: and they gotta be kicking themselves in the teeth.

522
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 3: I would think, Yeah, I was gonna say, probably probably

523
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 3: kicking themselves a little bit for where things have gone.

524
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 2: It is.

525
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 3: It's Brian, I appreciate you. It is crazy to see

526
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 3: the career trajectory of what Vrabel was able to do

527
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 3: in Tennessee and then to see them move on from

528
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 3: him and have just failed since then. Rabel just felt

529
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 3: like the perfect fit for so many different reasons. With

530
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 3: the New England Patriots. I mean, it just feels like

531
00:26:55,840 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 3: everything about that New England team is Mike Vrabel kind

532
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 3: of bottled up into one.

533
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's pretty remarkable that the NFL is a

534
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 5: whole allowed for able to get back to New England

535
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 5: to become the head coach there. It feels like it

536
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 5: doesn't He's not doing things the same way that Belichick did.

537
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 5: He's got his obvious, you know, his own spin, and

538
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 5: he's done this before in the NFL. But man, it

539
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 5: just gives you that pit in your stomach that the

540
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 5: Patriots are going to be around again here for the

541
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 5: next decade.

542
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 2: Yep, it is.

543
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 3: It's a credit to them for what they've built. And

544
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 3: I give credit to them. They won in the off season,

545
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 3: they won in the draft, and they've not been complacent

546
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 3: with success. They are continuing during the season to continue

547
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 3: to make moves knowing that, yes, they are in a

548
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 3: great position now, but they're also in a great position

549
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 3: going forward with Drake May as a rookie quarterback to

550
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 3: build a legitimate title contender for the foreseeable future. And

551
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 3: they have capitalized on that. Speaking of capitalizing on opportunities.

552
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 3: You'd like to think that the Bearcats can do that tonight.

553
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 3: This is Wes Miller's great chance to capitalize on a

554
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 3: marquee win that happens at Heritage Bank Arena tonight. It's

555
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 3: a six thirty start, it's a good team in Louisville

556
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 3: coming in. It's going to be an uphill battle. But

557
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 3: the importance of this to wes Miller you can't just

558
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 3: continue to fall flat in the big games. You can't

559
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 3: win the games you're supposed to win and never find

560
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:26,640
Speaker 3: a way to win a big game or a game

561
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 3: that maybe you're not supposed to win. That that has

562
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 3: to change for Wes Miller. And he got a little

563
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 3: bit of the monkey off his back against Xavier last

564
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 3: year with the win. He has to find a way

565
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 3: to win. This team can't turn the ball over a

566
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 3: bunch tonight. They've got to be able to shoot the

567
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 3: ball at a high level, and they've got to rely

568
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 3: on a defense that's been pretty good throughout the year

569
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 3: to slow down a Louisville team that has scored one

570
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 3: hundred on everyone except Kentucky, and they were in the

571
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 3: high nineties against Kentucky. For the Cincinnati Bearcats tomorrow. I

572
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 3: think it's even more important Drew for Scott Saderfield agreed.

573
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 3: Here's a guy last year that they collab down the stretch.

574
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 3: They finished five and seven. A lot of people came

575
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 3: into the year without high expectations and wondering is Sadderfield

576
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 3: the guy. They lose the opener to Nebraska, and then

577
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 3: they win seven straight and then they get undressed a

578
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 3: little bit on the road at Utah, and then from

579
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 3: Utah it's a bye week into a failure against Arizona,

580
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 3: where they just looked unprepared for everything that they had

581
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 3: coming at them, and that, to me was the toughest part.

582
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 3: I get losing on the road, I get it. You

583
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 3: lose on the road, you move on from it. But man,

584
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 3: the way in which they lost to Arizona, a lot

585
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 3: of the same things that crept up against Utah crept

586
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 3: up again against Arizona. I would expect b Yu was

587
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 3: going to come in and try to do the same thing.

588
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 3: So this is an important game for Scott Sadafield. You

589
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 3: win this, you get your season right back on track.

590
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 3: Your still at an outside chance to make the Big

591
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 3: twelve championship game. But more importantly, you've then got a

592
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 3: chance to finish the season at nine and three.

593
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, and as you see, he's got everything working for

594
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 5: him this weekend. You know, big noons in town, nip

595
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 5: at night, coming off a tough loss. You know, I do,

596
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 5: I use a good football team, but it's still a

597
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 5: true freshman coming in to play quarterback who wears number

598
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 5: forty seven, which is the craziest thing I've ever seen.

599
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 5: You got everything working for you this weekend, and you

600
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 5: gotta capitalize if you find yourself in the position early

601
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 5: where you can bury him like you see did last week.

602
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 2: Yep.

603
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 4: You know they were up, and they were.

604
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 2: That first seven and got four possessions with the.

605
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 5: Lead, correct, and you gotta be able to capitalize on

606
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 5: those situations. And Brendan Sorosby, you know, being blunt here,

607
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 5: he's got to play better. Yep, he's got to play better.

608
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 5: I know he got shook up a little bit last week,

609
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 5: but you gotta have a better game out of your

610
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 5: veteran quarterback if you want to win, if you want

611
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 5: to win on Saturday night. I think he is going

612
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 5: to bounce back. I feel good about the Bearcats this week.

613
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 5: We'll talk about it more in the Pickham segment.

614
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 3: Here we go, speaking of the Pickham segment. That's next

615
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 3: Drew on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station, thanks to

616
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:08,680

Speaker 2: Hey, it's welcome about our number.

618
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 3: One as we roll along the Friday football frenzy ESPN

619
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 3: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station thanks to Skyline Chile. As

620
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 3: mentioned earlier, we are shortened today because of Kentucky basketball tonight,

621
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 3: So that means being done at two thirty. Our Pickham

622
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 3: segment has to slide into the end of our number

623
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 3: once we can get it in between Drew and myself.

624
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 3: Let's dive in, Drew, Let's start the high school slate.

625
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 3: Some really good football games tonight, culminating at pay Course Stadium.

626
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 2: Let's run through these. Middletown against Wayne. Who do you

627
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: like and.

628
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 4: Why I will take the Wayne Warriors?

629
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 5: Oh, because I'm just a little more familiar with them,

630
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 5: being a Northern Ohio person. Okay, Middletown though, although Kyle

631
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 5: Schwarber's in town yep, my sources are telling me he

632
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 5: may be at the game tonight.

633
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 2: Wow.

634
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 4: So if that's the case.

635
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 2: Wow, This change is things.

636
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 4: Does change things. I think I'm gonna stick with the

637
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 4: Wayne Warriors night.

638
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 3: Well, you just sold me on on Middletown the Middies.

639
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 3: Here we go, Kyle Schwarber, what's the what's the UFC

640
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 3: fighter is it? Kayla Harrison?

641
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 4: Well, that's not a question.

642
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 3: She's also a Middletown MIDI I saw a video she

643
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: posted wishing Middletown good luck. Give me Middletown to take

644
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 3: the win against Wayne. Indian Hill, the pride of the

645
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Hills League, Drill the chl is gonna take on

646
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 3: Valley View.

647
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 4: Let's see, I'm gonna go with Indian Hill.

648
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 5: Okay, I circled Valley View and then changed my mind

649
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 5: at right at the last second.

650
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 4: Give me Indian Hill to win the football game.

651
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 3: I think Indian Hills win and able to hold on

652
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 3: over Taft. It's one of those things that just kind

653
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 3: of feels like destiny. Taft was ready to win that game,

654
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 3: they fumble it away. Indian Hill advances. I think they

655
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 3: carry that momentum. I think Indian Hill gets this win

656
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 3: as well. What about London and Tip City, Old Tip

657
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 3: a Canoe. I know this one's a little bit personal,

658
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 3: a little bit our guy Austin's not here.

659
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 2: Now.

660
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 3: I I'm a fan of Tip City. I've got friends

661
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,479
Speaker 3: in Tip City. But what Tip City did to Sydney

662
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 3: this year they didn't call off the dogs drive, they

663
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 3: did not, and then they did the same thing to

664
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 3: my Taliwanda squad with Dominic Goodman as the offensive coordinator.

665
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 3: London here's the thing. London, home of the famous Dick

666
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 3: Leabou and many others. I have a friend in London,

667
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 3: a good friend of mine, and he's a little un

668
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 3: the unsure. He's uneasy about this game which wanted me

669
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 3: to lean into the area of Tip a canoe. But

670
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 3: I'll say this, I've got new listeners in London. I've

671
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 3: got new friends in London. And to those listening in

672
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 3: London today, even though someone from London I know may

673
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 3: have not had the faith that I do, I still

674
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 3: have the faith. Give me London to London Tip City tonight.

675
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 3: I'll ride with London.

676
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 5: I'm not scared, all right, Well, I'm gonna take Tip City.

677
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 4: Wow.

678
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 5: Burdbocker is a heck of a coach. Coached at Minster

679
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 5: up up my way back back in my day. Great

680
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,479
Speaker 5: great football coach, great team. Uh yeah, and they, boy

681
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,760
Speaker 5: did they do some some gnarly things to the Sydney

682
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:21,799
Speaker 5: Yellowjackets this season.

683
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 4: Give me tip.

684
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 3: You know what's interesting is is so many people are

685
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 3: focused on Elder Sinex and I get why. But Anderson

686
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 3: and Trotwood Madison gonna be an awesome game. Might just

687
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 3: be the game of the weekend. This game is being

688
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 3: played at Lakota West. I'm back and forth on this one.

689
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 3: Anderson has been unscathed throughout the year. Trotwood's hit a

690
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 3: couple of games that have gone against them, but their

691
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 3: schedule is ridiculous. They're playing their best football right now.

692
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 3: In a close one. I'm gonna take the Raptors from Anderson.

693
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,280
Speaker 4: I'll take the Rams, then Trotwood.

694
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 5: Okay, Trotwood Madison making the trek thirty five minute drive

695
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 5: down seventy five ooh, a nasty trek in the conditions.

696
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 2: Do you think the trek changes things?

697
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 5: Not really? Okay, not really. I think it's a thirty

698
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 5: minute car ride basically. So give me Trotwood.

699
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 3: The game that obviously everyone is discussing that has been

700
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 3: moved to pay Corp Stadium. I know last night there

701
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 3: was just south of eighteen thousand tickets sold. I'm assuming

702
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,720
Speaker 3: This number is going to be over twenty thousand people

703
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 3: in attendance at pay Corp Stadium tonight to watch Elder

704
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,719
Speaker 3: and Saint Xavier. It is going to be fancy. It

705
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 3: reminds me of growing up when they used to play

706
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 3: these games at Knippert and I would go and think, man,

707
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 3: they are They're drawing more games at Knippert for high

708
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,439
Speaker 3: school than they are for the college at the time.

709
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 2: That's what we're happening.

710
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 3: I was growing up, there would be more that would

711
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 3: go to Elder, Coleraine, Elder, Mullet, these types of games.

712
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 3: This is everything about what makes high school football in

713
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 3: Cincinnati and Ohio so awesome. But if you listen at

714
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 3: all to this show, and you're listen every week, you

715
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 3: know what Friday is for me. It's all Tiora. It's

716
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,320
Speaker 3: purple Friday. Elder, Elder, Elder, give me Elder to advance

717
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 3: over Saint.

718
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 4: X It is gonna be a great game, gonna be

719
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 4: a cold one stadium tonight. Uh.

720
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 5: Elder apparently is battling some injuries, little banged up, well

721
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 5: banged up, But Uh, I'm gonna take the Panthers. Okay,

722
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take Elder they continue. I think they're gonna

723
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,240
Speaker 5: ride the momentum of that insane comeback last week. Crazy,

724
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,720
Speaker 5: you know, second life, you know, playing with house money.

725
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 5: They probably feel like, so I'm gonna take the elder

726
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 5: Panthers as well.

727
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,279
Speaker 3: Right here we go to the college slate, Drew, these

728
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:43,919
Speaker 3: are spreads involved now Rutgers, Greg Ciano, He's gonna start

729
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 3: chopping wood on the sideline. That's no longer a figure

730
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 3: of speech. They're actually physically gonna start chopping wood on

731
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 3: the Rutgers' sideline to be somewhat productive.

732
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 2: In these games.

733
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 3: Because outside of that, they've been terrible. They are making

734
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,479
Speaker 3: I mean, they're they're doing nothing good for the Todd

735
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,280
Speaker 3: Fraser name coming out of Rutgers. They've got to figure

736
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 3: this out. Thirty two and a half. It's a huge number.

737
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 3: I know there's some questions at wide receiver right now

738
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 3: for Ohio State. What do you like in this game

739
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 3: with the spread being that high.

740
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 5: I think Rutgers is gonna chop more wood than they

741
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 5: score points. Oh give me the Buckeyes minus thirty two

742
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 5: and a half.

743
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this is Ohio State. This is something

744
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 3: like forty two to seven or something like that Ohio

745
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 3: State roles as the prohibitive favorite in college football. Not

746
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 3: many Top twenty five matchups this weekend, but there is one,

747
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 3: or there's two happening. Missouri number twenty two at Oklahoma.

748
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 3: The number is only seven and a half. Oklahoma has

749
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 3: done a lot to get themselves back in the conversation

750
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,240
Speaker 3: at eight and two. I think that's enough to carry

751
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 3: them through. I got Oklahoma at home to cover the number.

752
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 5: That's a tough you know, when you see those spreads,

753
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 5: you just go, gosh, darn it, that is the right line,

754
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 5: because it just feels like the right line. I'm gonna

755
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 5: say Missouri stays inside the number, but Oklahoma wins the game,

756
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 5: and yeah, okay, it's.

757
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 4: A tough one. It's a toss up. I could go

758
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 4: either way on that. I think I'll take Missouri now.

759
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 3: Earlier in our pre show meeting, I had my geography

760
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 3: messed up between USC and Oregon. Did this isn't a

761
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,360
Speaker 3: tough road trip. It's not a cross country flight. For

762
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 3: in my mind, I keep thinking about the West Coast

763
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 3: teams that complain about the Big Ten travel correct and

764
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, Otson Stadium, that place is gonna be

765
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 3: a literally and figuratively zoo. But it's not a tough

766
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 3: trip for USC. That being said, Oregon has way more

767
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 3: to play for in this one. I think their offense

768
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 3: finds its rhythm. It's an underrated defense. I think for

769
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 3: the most part, give me Oregon nine and a half.

770
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 3: They cover the number at home.

771
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, it feels like this is a fade the public

772
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,479
Speaker 5: play here. Feels like a lot of people are gonna

773
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 5: see that nine and a half with number fifteen USC

774
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 5: and take that candy. So I'm gonna fade the public here.

775
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with Oregon as well. Take the candy. Okay,

776
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 5: you to take the candy. Kentucky. Now UK's played better.

777
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 5: Mark Stoops has his team getting some some better football.

778
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 3: They made the change at quarterback that has paid off,

779
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 3: and Vanderbilt has just kind of lost a little bit

780
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 3: of the shine. I'm over Diego Pavia. His antics are

781
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 3: now becoming annoying for me. So I will take the

782
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 3: Kentucky Wildcats. After beating Auburn and Florida and Tennessee Tech.

783
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 3: I don't know if they win at Vanderbilt, but I

784
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 3: think they cover eight and a half.

785
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm with you. I'm gonna say I'm gonna take.

786
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 5: The Wildcats as well, playing pretty good football in their

787
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 5: last three since getting absolutely dump trucked by Tennessee back

788
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 5: in October.

789
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, and I'm I am with you on Diego Pavia.

790
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 5: Actually I was early on the Danga Pavia kind of

791
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 5: stinks train.

792
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, it's fun for a while.

793
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 5: It was when you know, when he beat Alabama last season,

794
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 5: it was, uh, it was a fun story. And then

795
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 5: I watched the sec Netflix show and I was like, God,

796
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 5: this dude is unbearable.

797
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 3: I'm out Wisconsin is gonna host Illinois. Wisconsin get the

798
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 3: monkey off their back. A couple of weeks ago and

799
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 3: Luke Fickele got his first top twenty five win since

800
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,439
Speaker 3: being at Wisconsin at Wisconsin, and he did so by

801
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 3: losing the vest So I thought, Okay, they're onto something.

802
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 3: And then they got boat raced by Indiana. They come

803
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 3: back home, the line is only seven and a half vestless,

804
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,879
Speaker 3: Luke fickel getting seven and a half at home. I'll

805
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 3: still take Illinois.

806
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 5: Feels like it's gonna be a quintessential Big Ten football games.

807
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 5: One low scoring, you know, a lot of hitting. Give

808
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 5: me Illinois, though I think they win by ten.

809
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 3: All Right, finally it's big noon kickoff and then you

810
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 3: gotta wait till eight pm for the actual kickoff. Nip

811
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 3: at Night Senior Night Bearcats Cougars of BYU.

812
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 12: Drew.

813
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 2: You go first, Give me the Cats, love it.

814
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 5: Give me the Cats coming off its tough loss against Arizona.

815
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 5: They get the night that they so coveted in a

816
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 5: prime time spot BYU. I've watched BYU quite a bit

817
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 5: this year because they're on late a lot of Saturdays,

818
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,279
Speaker 5: and I just I've watched them. I go they're a

819
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 5: good football team, but man, I'm just not sold on them.

820
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,399
Speaker 5: So I think the Bearcat offense gets rolling. I think

821
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 5: Sowersby has a good day, and I think the Cats

822
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,959
Speaker 5: go out a winner at Nipper Stadium for the year.

823
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 3: And that TCU game is not a noon kickoff for you,

824
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 3: Thank goodness. That's that's my hope. Here's my other hope.

825
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,760
Speaker 3: This team cannot lose four in a row to finish

826
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 3: the regular season.

827
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 4: Yep.

828
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 3: And I really feel how tomorrow goes will be how

829
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 3: TCU goes. I feel like if they lose tomorrow, it's

830
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 3: snowballs and they lose at TCU if they write the

831
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 3: ship tomorrow. We're talking about a team that finishes nine

832
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 3: to three, and right now the door is not completely

833
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 3: slammed on them making the Big twelve championship game. I

834
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 3: know things have to happen, but there's still a chance

835
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 3: for the Bearcats. I look at BYU. The game against

836
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 3: Utah Utah was banged up. That was a good win,

837
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 3: but outside of that, not a ton of marquee wins

838
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 3: for BYU. They barely got by Colorado. They took a

839
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 3: ten point deficit against Arizona before winning that in overtime.

840
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,959
Speaker 3: This team can be had. They're coming off a loss

841
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,879
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago to Texas Tech. I think

842
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 3: since he gets a marquee win for Scott Souderfield, as

843
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 3: we discussed earlier, give me the bear Cats as well.

844
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 3: Let's move to the NFL slate. We'll pick it up here.

845
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 3: Steelers at Bears Bears minus two and a half Drew,

846
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 3: Who do you.

847
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 5: Like dubb Bears? Give me the Bears. They just Ben Johnson.

848
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,879
Speaker 5: I don't the Bears are a fascinating team to me? Yeah,

849
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 5: because they don't think they're bad. But I also don't

850
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 5: think they're good. I think they are like the median

851
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 5: team in the NFL, and I think the Steelers are

852
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 5: a little bit less than that. Bears find a way

853
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 5: to win these games late. I'm gonna say they kick

854
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 5: a field goal late to win.

855
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say the luck runs out. This just feels

856
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 3: like the type of win that doesn't feel like they

857
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 3: have any business winning under Mike Tomlin, and they find

858
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 3: a way to do it no other reasoning other than

859
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 3: this is a Mike Tomlin special. They find a way

860
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 3: to win. Colts at Chiefs. This is the same thing

861
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 3: for me. If the Chiefs lose this game, you might

862
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:09,320
Speaker 3: start talking about the actual nature of having a playoff

863
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,280
Speaker 3: postseason football in the AFC without the Kansas City Chiefs.

864
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 3: I don't think they let that happen. They're coming off

865
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 3: the b or the culture coming off the buy. I

866
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,840
Speaker 3: like the Chiefs at home with spags in that defense

867
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:21,720
Speaker 3: to write the ship in Kansas City.

868
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 5: I think Kansas City wins the game. I think the

869
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 5: Colts stay inside the number. Okay, I'm gonna take the

870
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 5: three and a half with Indianapolis off of by Daniel

871
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 5: Jones because I've been great his last couple games, So

872
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 5: be interesting to see what the Colts. I think with

873
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 5: that bye week, they can kind of integrate their new

874
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 5: pieces together. I'm gonna take the Chiefs to win the game,

875
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 5: but the Colts cover the number.

876
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 3: Another team on the outside looking into the Baltimore Ravens,

877
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 3: but they are trending in the right direction. The numbers

878
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 3: thirteen and a half. That's a lot to lay, but

879
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 3: I think they make another statement, not only on the

880
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 3: offensive side, but on the defensive side as well. I'll

881
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,720
Speaker 3: take the Ravens to cover a large number.

882
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna take the Ravens here as well. They

883
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 5: did not play well last week in Cleveland, lucky to

884
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 5: get out of there with a win. And it just

885
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,240
Speaker 5: feels like when teams like that have those bad games,

886
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,200
Speaker 5: but they find a way to win, they usually turn

887
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 5: it on the next week. So I think that's what's

888
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 5: gonna happen with the Baltimore Ravens. Thirty and a half

889
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 5: a lot of points, but they're at home. I'll take that.

890
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 5: I'll take that.

891
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 3: Shador Sanders gets his first start on the road.

892
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 5: At Raiders minus four. I guess yep, easy, we're an

893
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 5: agree with Raiders minus four. I'm interested to see how

894
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,000
Speaker 5: it's gonna go. With a week of preparation, Yeah, you know,

895
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 5: full week of practice. The chador army doesn't get the well,

896
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,919
Speaker 5: he hadn't had any reps and he got put into

897
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 5: the game in the middle of the game. Excuse he

898
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 5: gets a full week of practice. He knows he's the starter,

899
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 5: So you know what, let's go out and see it.

900
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,319
Speaker 5: I don't think it's gonna go well, but maybe he'll

901
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 5: bruk me wrong. I think he's one of the Raiders

902
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 5: minus four.

903
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 3: I think he's one of the most hated on quarterbacks.

904
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 3: For an eight and two team that doesn't turn the

905
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 3: ball over and they're fantastic in the red zone. This

906
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 3: feels like a game Jalen hurts against a bad Cowboys

907
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,880
Speaker 3: defense shuts up a lot of these doubters. The Eagles

908
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 3: are eight and two for a res I know the

909
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 3: Cowboys are playing for a lot here on Sunday, trying

910
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 3: to get themselves back in the playoff race, but I

911
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 3: think the Eagles are too much. Give me the Eagles

912
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 3: plus three and a half minus three and a half

913
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 3: against the Cowboys.

914
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, that feels right. I circled the Cowboys. I wanted

915
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 5: to take the Cowboys. But just the more and more

916
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 5: I looked at it, the more and more I went,

917
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 5: I can't do it.

918
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 4: Give me the Eagles. I'm with you.

919
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,800
Speaker 5: I think the Eagles offense gets on track, so to speak,

920
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 5: and they win the game to cover the spring.

921
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,720
Speaker 3: Buccaneers are just banged up. They're such a full story.

922
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,399
Speaker 3: They've got to get healthy. It does not get any

923
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 3: easier for him, though they go against the Rams. Rams

924
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 3: are my top team in the NFC right now. Matthew Stafford,

925
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 3: if the season ended today, is my MVP of the

926
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,440
Speaker 3: National Football League. Seven is a big number, though this

927
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 3: feels like a Baker Mayfield late touchdown that makes it

928
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 3: a five or six point game.

929
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 4: Knock at the back door.

930
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 3: Rams win, Buccaneers kick open the back door. I'll take

931
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,280
Speaker 3: the Bucks to cover the number. I'll take the Rams

932
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 3: to cover the number. Then I'm with you. I think

933
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 3: the Rams are really good. I'm with you on the

934
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,480
Speaker 3: Stafford MVP as well. Matthew Stafford. A lot of is

935
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:04,279
Speaker 3: made about whether he'll be a Hall of Famer. I

936
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,320
Speaker 3: think it's I think he's a no doubter, no doubt.

937
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 3: A sneaky, good Monday night football game drew the six

938
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 3: and five Carolina Panthers versus seven and four forty nine

939
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 3: Ers who just keep finding ways to win. You talk

940
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 3: about a team that's dealt with injuries, the line is seven.

941
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 3: I'll ask you, does the back door open for the Panthers.

942
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 5: I think the back door opens for the Panthers. I

943
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 5: think they cover the number here. Rock Perty looked good

944
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 5: last week, looked healthy coming off his toe injury. So

945
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 5: it'll be interesting to see how this game plays out.

946
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 5: The Panthers are, They're an interesting team. They they will

947
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,359
Speaker 5: find themselves in these games and win these games close,

948
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 5: and then they will have those weeks where they just

949
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 5: get blown off the field. So is that gonna be

950
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 5: one of those weeks? Cross country flight? It is a

951
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 5: cross country flight, and that is a cross country flight.

952
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take the Panthers, but don't feel great about.

953
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 3: It all right, for all those reasons, I'm taking the

954
00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 3: forty nine ers. Either said, I just laid them out

955
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 3: for I think the forty nine ers have too much.

956
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 3: I think they're playing and trending in the right direction.

957
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 3: They are fully fully operating with Christian McCaffrey, who goes

958
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 3: against his former team and I think he has a

959
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 3: monster game. Give me the forty nine ers. How about

960
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 3: our Win Shulers Cheesy Spread of the Week. Thanks to

961
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 3: our friends at Win Schulers. Try any of their four

962
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 3: delicious cheese spread flavors. They pair well with absolutely anything,

963
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 3: and they're great for your tailgate, for your game day,

964
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:28,720
Speaker 3: or any holiday party. Thanks to our friends at Win Schulers.

965
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,880
Speaker 3: This line has been all over the place, yep. Between

966
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 3: the Bengals and the Patriots, my head has been spinning.

967
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow now has passing props. As we mentioned earlier

968
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 3: listed on Fandel, I'm operating in the sense that Joe

969
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,759
Speaker 3: Burrow's playing. I'm also operating in the sins drew that

970
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase is not playing and that Joe Burrow is

971
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 3: not able to play on the defensive side of the ball.

972
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 3: I think the Bengals make it interesting early. I think

973
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 3: the Patriots pull away late. I'll take the Patriots in

974
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 3: Cincinnati to beat the Bengals.

975
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 11: Yep.

976
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:57,879
Speaker 4: I'm going to take the Patriots as well.

977
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 5: Feels like they are playing some of the best football

978
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 5: in the NFL right now. Drake may is operating at

979
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 5: high high efficiency. Travion Henderson has gotten going here in

980
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 5: the last couple of weeks, facing a terrible Bengals run defense.

981
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,359
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, just I think too much, too much from

982
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 5: New England, regardless of who starts a quarterback for the Bengals,

983
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 5: even if it's Burrow, and you know, Bengal Nation, just

984
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 5: kind of cross your fingers if Joe Burrow goes out

985
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 5: on that field on Sunday, because you got Baltimore on

986
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,840
Speaker 5: Thanksgiving night and the NFL's turn around. The NFL is

987
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 5: going to be doing the same because man, I Burrow

988
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 5: can't go on that Thanksgiving game.

989
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 4: Thanksgiving game, that's not good.

990
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 3: I feel a bonus came in before we break and

991
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 3: before we get to Charlie Goldsmith to kick off the

992
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 3: second hour. These six ranked Louisville Cardinals, I think drew

993
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 3: a team that can legitimately cut down the nets at

994
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 3: the end of the year. They are Final four good.

995
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 3: I think they're national title good. Guard play is what

996
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 3: it's all about when it gets to March, and they've

997
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 3: got some of the best guards that you can find.

998
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:55,280
Speaker 2: I am.

999
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 3: I'm struggling to find the path for UC to win

1000
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,960
Speaker 3: this game tonight. I'm struggling to find the path for

1001
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 3: you see to cover the number. It opened it seven

1002
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 3: and a half, it's been up to nine and a half.

1003
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 3: I've got it right here at eight and a half.

1004
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 3: What do you think?

1005
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, the path to winning is Louisville shooting two of

1006
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 5: twenty seven from three and maybe you see turning the

1007
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 5: ball over twenty four. No, if you see turns the

1008
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 5: ball over twenty four times to night, that's gonna get

1009
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 5: ugly quickly. I'm gonna take Louisville. I'm with everything you

1010
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,399
Speaker 5: just said there. They're really good, they're national title good.

1011
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 5: They could cut down the nets.

1012
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,799
Speaker 3: George, I have this issue, drew or far too many

1013
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 3: times in life I bet with my heart instead of

1014
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:31,439
Speaker 3: my head.

1015
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:32,400
Speaker 4: I hear you.

1016
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 2: I do it all the.

1017
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 3: Time, listening to everything you're saying. I listened to everything

1018
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 3: we've already talked about, and somewhat some way, I keep

1019
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,080
Speaker 3: thinking that Wes Miller's gonna get his marque win at

1020
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 3: some point. Why not tonight?

1021
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 5: Why not tonight Wes Miller's Markey win. If you see,

1022
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 5: find a way to get it, to get it done.

1023
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 3: And the conversation around this team completely shifts going for you.

1024
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 5: Know what, this is the first time that you see,

1025
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 5: you can say we're coming into a game as an underdog. Yep,

1026
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 5: so they can play with that chip on their shoulder

1027
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 5: mentality and go out there and letter rip. Give me

1028
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 5: the Bearcats, Baby, give them the Bearcats. I'm still taking Louisville. Okay,

1029
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,439
Speaker 5: We're done, not for the show, but for the hour.

00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:21,759

Speaker 3: Burrow and we will before that. Can you find a

1055
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,319
Speaker 3: path to uc bed Louisal tonight?

1056
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 11: Charlie.

1057
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 14: It's a team that's much improved from the perimeter, especially

1058
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 14: when you look at kind of how things got clogged

1059
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:38,439
Speaker 14: for them offensively in previous years. KINTINETVI A night where

1060
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,359
Speaker 14: you see can win with the style. We haven't seen

1061
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 14: a ton from them in a while with kind of

1062
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,760
Speaker 14: the perimeter attack. You know, Baba making some breeze, Sena

1063
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 14: Rigaz come off the bench and make some threes day

1064
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,920
Speaker 14: to day shot the ball. Well, this year they've got shooters.

1065
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 14: Let's see if they can make some shots in an

1066
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 14: arena that's terrible to shoot in.

1067
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:59,200
Speaker 3: All right, Charlie. Uh the up to the date updates

1068
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,640
Speaker 3: on Joe Burrow. He's officially listed as questionable. What do

1069
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,360
Speaker 3: we know up to this point, and what do you

1070
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:06,720
Speaker 3: think happens on Sunday.

1071
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:10,840
Speaker 14: We just talked to Zach for a while. Here's my

1072
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 14: read on the situation. You don't get to this point

1073
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 14: unless Burrow feels like he can play, feel healthy enough

1074
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 14: to play. And I think there's enough optimism that is,

1075
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 14: from a pure health and physical standpoint, Burrow's pretty much there.

1076
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 14: I feel pretty strongly about that now talking to Zach,

1077
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 14: you know they're gonna take the time they have. They're

1078
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 14: comfortable taking the time they have Burrows listed as questionable.

1079
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,399
Speaker 14: What Zach talked a lot about is this being his

1080
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,800
Speaker 14: call and he's gotta do what's best for the program,

1081
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:46,720
Speaker 14: do what's best for Burrow, and make the right decision.

1082
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 14: And there's a lot of factor in there, like how

1083
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,279
Speaker 14: does Burrow read a defense? How does Burrow respond to

1084
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:55,920
Speaker 14: not having any you know, real live speed reps until just,

1085
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,840
Speaker 14: you know, a few days ago. How does you know

1086
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,880
Speaker 14: the the can you call a sixty passes? Were Burrow's

1087
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 14: running all over the field? Like what guardrails do you

1088
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,560
Speaker 14: have to set up? From a play caller perspectives, I

1089
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 14: really think Zach's just taken in all the information he

1090
00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,360
Speaker 14: wants to go back through how it all went this weekend,

1091
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:14,720
Speaker 14: and he'll make the call tomorrow.

1092
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 3: Outside of Joe Burrow and what we know or wait

1093
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:21,920
Speaker 3: to know around Joe Burrow, we know Jamar Chase is

1094
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 3: not going to be playing on Sunday. How do they

1095
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 3: make up for the production they'll lose from Jamar Chase.

1096
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 14: We've seen before when Chase is out just taking step

1097
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:34,400
Speaker 14: into the one a Spotlight needs, as we all know

1098
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 14: more than good enough to do that. The most interesting

1099
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:42,399
Speaker 14: wrinkles for me there are two One Andre Josavash's role

1100
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 14: really over the last two years has been and he

1101
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 14: even said this line up where Jamar isn't you know,

1102
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 14: move jamorrowt Wire to the slot, you know, move Jamar out,

1103
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,879
Speaker 14: whye Yoshi fills the gaps. What routes do they think

1104
00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,040
Speaker 14: are Andre's best routes when you're just coming up with

1105
00:53:57,080 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 14: the game plan for maybe you know, five six plays

1106
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,759
Speaker 14: where you're featuring Joseavash, what are those routes? I wonder

1107
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,080
Speaker 14: if we see more plays up the scene, more back

1108
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:08,840
Speaker 14: shoulder throws to Andre, and then overall, what style of

1109
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 14: game do you want this to be? Maybe without Jamar

1110
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 14: and either way Flack or Burrow a quarterback, you don't

1111
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 14: want throwing it fifty times? Do you try to take

1112
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 14: the air out of the game? Kind of play the

1113
00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 14: style that New England played in Cincinnati last year. Minimize possessions,

1114
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 14: established the run. How just more of a patient, conservative

1115
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,840
Speaker 14: overall approach. So that approach would lead to more of

1116
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,879
Speaker 14: a role for Chase Brown. Maybe using more tight ends

1117
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:37,719
Speaker 14: if you're trying to establish.

1118
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 11: The run, more play action.

1119
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 14: I look at the style of play and then ways

1120
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 14: to use Yoshi as different wrinkles they could.

1121
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 2: Come up with on the deal.

1122
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:48,360
Speaker 3: Well, let's stick one more on the offensive side of

1123
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 3: the ball. The running game has opened up, and a

1124
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 3: lot of people think there's something to the way Joe

1125
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:56,320
Speaker 3: Flacka has played his ability to go under center. If

1126
00:54:56,440 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow is playing, we've seen an uneasiness of going

1127
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 3: under center. Can this team still run the ball effectively

1128
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:06,359
Speaker 3: with the advancements they've made on the offensive line if

1129
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 3: they are majority shotgun?

1130
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 14: Yes, you want my honest opinion, I think the under

1131
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:16,320
Speaker 14: center storyline is the most overrated conversation around the Bengals.

1132
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:19,479
Speaker 14: They've proven over the years that if there's a match

1133
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 14: of what they feel like, they have a true specific advantage.

1134
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 14: That's all make under center packages a big part of

1135
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:27,399
Speaker 14: what they do now. All right, there's one thing they

1136
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 14: did with Flacco specifically in both games against the Steelers,

1137
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 14: they had them do under center straight dropbacks. They stopped

1138
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 14: teaching that twenty years ago. Burrow was not going to

1139
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 14: do that. But sure that takes five plays out of

1140
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 14: your call sheet that you had with Flacco, But of

1141
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 14: course you have more things you can do with Burrow.

1142
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:46,880
Speaker 14: I just think the whole under center thing is so

1143
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 14: situational and it's not a solve, a save, a catch

1144
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,200
Speaker 14: all answer for them to have a better run game

1145
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 14: or a more efficient.

1146
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 3: Offense on the defensive side of the ball. Charlie, I

1147
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,480
Speaker 3: know that the final score thirty four last week, but

1148
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:05,319
Speaker 3: two defensive touchdowns, and I thought the defense, at least

1149
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:06,879
Speaker 3: in the first half was able to get the ball

1150
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 3: back to the offense for more opportunities. Did you see

1151
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 3: anything against the Steelers that leads you to believe they're

1152
00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 3: trending in the right direction on the defensive side of

1153
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:17,280
Speaker 3: the ball overall.

1154
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,480
Speaker 14: Though, I think Pittsburgh's offense shot itself in the foot

1155
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 14: a lot and Aaron Rodgers kentp to look like how

1156
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:25,720
Speaker 14: you would fear a worst piece scenario for Joe Flack

1157
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,360
Speaker 14: all right when he got here would have gone. You know,

1158
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:29,239
Speaker 14: a quarterback who can't move and gets rid of the

1159
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,120
Speaker 14: ball right away without any real sense of where it's going.

1160
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:34,319
Speaker 14: That's what I saw from the Steelers offense in the

1161
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,399
Speaker 14: first half with Aaron Rodgers. Of course, black Will hadn't

1162
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 14: been that in Cincinnatty, but that's just my way to

1163
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 14: criticize how beatable that Steelers offense was. An underrated storyline

1164
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,440
Speaker 14: of the week is now with Cam Taylor britt out.

1165
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,080
Speaker 14: So what I was told yesterday, it sounds like Jalen

1166
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:50,880
Speaker 14: Davis is going to get the start and the slot

1167
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 14: coming off the practice squad. He's not a perfect player,

1168
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 14: but he has he knows the defense. He is a

1169
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 14: better tackler than what they've had. He has good awareness

1170
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 14: and good instincts. He can get beaten coverage. He's a

1171
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,320
Speaker 14: step slower than maybe what you want from your slock corner,

1172
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:08,840
Speaker 14: but that is one personnel change we'll see on defense.

1173
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,279
Speaker 3: Uh Dejon Anthony, any update on if he's going to

1174
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 3: be able to go and how do you view obviously

1175
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 3: Cam Taylor, Britt, do you view any changes coming to

1176
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,680
Speaker 3: the safety room, which I think could use some help

1177
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 3: as well.

1178
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 14: Dejon's questionable. I don't see changes coming to the safety

1179
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:30,200
Speaker 14: room right now because of what we've seen from Tyson

1180
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:33,320
Speaker 14: Anderson over the years in training camp and unlimited opportunities

1181
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 14: on defense, what we've seen from Dejon Anthony when he's

1182
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 14: whenever he's been on the field, and you know you

1183
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 14: love PJ. Jewels on special teams, but this guy was

1184
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 14: a linebacker in college. He's not coming in free safety

1185
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 14: and saving your offense. They did such a poor job

1186
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,960
Speaker 14: of mis evaluating their safety depth that even though it

1187
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 14: is clearly time for a change of free safety, they

1188
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 14: just don't have that option. I don't think Dejon's that

1189
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 14: option either, whenever he's healthy, unless it's December and you're

1190
00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 14: truly just in a developmental play. The kidd as much

1191
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 14: as we've all seen it, and we've all seen it,

1192
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 14: as crazy as this is going to sound, he knows

1193
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,920
Speaker 14: Ston's still their best free safety on the ross.

1194
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson is out. We have seen now in back

1195
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,320
Speaker 3: to back games, right on the Monday press conference where

1196
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 3: Zach Taylor has essentially said Trey Hendrickson is doubtful. Normally,

1197
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 3: I feel like Zach holds the cards a little closer

1198
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,160
Speaker 3: to the chest. Wait and see how the week goes.

1199
00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 3: How do you view the Trey Hendrickson situation? What's unfolding?

1200
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,240
Speaker 3: And do you think we've seen the last of Trey

1201
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 3: Hendrickson this year?

1202
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,440
Speaker 14: I don't have a good feeling about this one. I

1203
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 14: truly don't know. I don't know that they know. There

1204
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:41,240
Speaker 14: hasn't been any concrete answers from them. Hack to they

1205
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 14: had concrete answers, they probably have put them on IR,

1206
00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:47,640
Speaker 14: which hasn't come. I haven't seen trade trade around as much.

1207
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,080
Speaker 14: Something I've been thinking about is like one of his

1208
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,320
Speaker 14: closest friends on the team was Logan, and of course

1209
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 14: that Logan Wilson trade should happen, But like all of

1210
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:59,040
Speaker 14: Trey's friends are gone and it's a bad team and

1211
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,680
Speaker 14: how is this all from his perspective right now? And

1212
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 14: it's just a weird situation, and it's it's one that

1213
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,760
Speaker 14: there haven't been any answers for and there's a lot

1214
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 14: of a lot of well earned uncertainty.

1215
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:14,960
Speaker 11: You're out is there a.

1216
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 3: Fix all for the tackling? Everyone just points to tackling

1217
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,280
Speaker 3: is just bad. And outside of going full go and

1218
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 3: running old school Oklahoma drills at practice in season, can

1219
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 3: you do anything to improve on tackling for a football

1220
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 3: team that is just exceptionally poor at doinso Jalen.

1221
00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:37,760
Speaker 14: Davis doesn't do that, I'm just kidding. They do think

1222
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 14: Dalen will improve their tackling, as much as that doesn't

1223
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:41,320
Speaker 14: seem like an answer.

1224
00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 11: One thing I really.

1225
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 14: Did notice was there were there over the last two

1226
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 14: or three weeks really since the buy have been tangible

1227
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,720
Speaker 14: changes even to the part of practice we see that's

1228
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 14: open to the media, which is just about the first

1229
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 14: twenty minutes. For example, they've revamped and re emphasized their

1230
00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 14: pre practice tackling circuit with they do different technique stuff

1231
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:03,800
Speaker 14: during special teams portions like.

1232
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:04,880
Speaker 11: The other day.

1233
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,680
Speaker 14: Al Usually the coordinators just kind of watch special teams

1234
01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 14: get a feel for what's going on with practice. You know,

1235
01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,760
Speaker 14: that's kind of on the sideline. The coordinators are on

1236
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 14: the sideline, and then the position coaches. You're still a

1237
01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 14: couple of drills with the guys who don't play special teams.

1238
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 14: To keep the guys loose, like tomorrow does work on

1239
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 14: a ladder for example, and catches some passes from Troy Walters. Well,

1240
01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 14: this week, Al Golden was one on one specifically, I

1241
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:34,200
Speaker 14: saw with Barrett Carter doing pursuit drills, read and react

1242
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 14: type stuff like Al Golden got very involved in a

1243
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 14: way that I hadn't seen before in that pre or

1244
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 14: in that special team portion of practice before individual drills.

1245
01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:46,200
Speaker 14: Another thing is yesterday it looked like the defense didn't

1246
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 14: walk through basically another walk through before practice. I was like,

1247
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 14: right before practice. Usually it's walked through lunch break practice.

1248
01:00:56,560 --> 01:01:00,320
Speaker 14: This was walk through lunch, go out to practice, start

1249
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 14: practice with basically another short walkthrough, which is somebody I

1250
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 14: hadn't seen. So they've They've done little things like that,

1251
01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 14: but I don't know that that saves the defense.

1252
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 3: Charlie, in your opinion, what is the best pass for

1253
01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 3: the Bengals to win on Sunday? How does that play out?

1254
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 14: The style of games just has to be very specific.

1255
01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:24,920
Speaker 14: It's so crazy to see how the shoes have reversed.

1256
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:27,920
Speaker 14: I keep going back to the Patriots game in Cincinnati

1257
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 14: last year, except the shoes on the other foot, the

1258
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:33,760
Speaker 14: Patriots have an explosive of an offense. As you'll see

1259
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,440
Speaker 14: in the NFL, and the Bengals are either playing a

1260
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 14: quarterback and Joe bang up quarterback and Joe Blacko or

1261
01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 14: Joe Burrow, who you'll want to keep some guardrails for.

1262
01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:46,120
Speaker 14: So the biggest thing, because I don't think this defense

1263
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,640
Speaker 14: is going to play great, can they finally create a

1264
01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:49,600
Speaker 14: turnover this week?

1265
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: Is there one.

1266
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,080
Speaker 14: Way that they can? You know, you know, that one

1267
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 14: blitz game, or that one coverage disguise or someone just

1268
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:59,880
Speaker 14: steps up and makes the play. As simple as that sounds. Heck,

1269
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 14: they could even be on special team. That's how the

1270
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,840
Speaker 14: Patriots beat the Bengals last year. Charlie Jones fumbled the punt.

1271
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 14: So something like that needs to happen, and then you

1272
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:11,480
Speaker 14: limit possessions and then maybe end the game with a shot.

1273
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 3: Charlie, I would be remiss not to ask you from

1274
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:18,480
Speaker 3: the reds Hot Stove League this week the description from

1275
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:21,080
Speaker 3: Nick Crawl on Ellie de la Cruz. We talked about

1276
01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:24,400
Speaker 3: it during red season, the power numbers, the stolen bases,

1277
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 3: the airs. Knowing now what we know, what do you

1278
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 3: make of the situation with Ellie and what he was

1279
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,440
Speaker 3: dealing with throughout the season.

1280
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:35,600
Speaker 14: Of course they should have given him a day off.

1281
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 14: It was the wrong decision they made. It was a

1282
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:40,400
Speaker 14: bad move. It was a thing they'll will approach much

1283
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:45,440
Speaker 14: differently in twenty twenty six. I think some context that's

1284
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 14: also important to keep in mind is from what I

1285
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 14: was told behind the scenes. You know, they tracked daily religiously,

1286
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,880
Speaker 14: just like they do in any sport. These players sprint

1287
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 14: speed and some underlying metrics of athleticism and help with

1288
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:01,480
Speaker 14: their sports science department and all of that stuff. And

1289
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 14: Ellie's numbers were trending in a positive direction, that closer

1290
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 14: to what you'd want to see by the end of

1291
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:10,040
Speaker 14: the season, and he actually ended the year the last

1292
01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:13,720
Speaker 14: couple of weeks not quite like hot hot, but warm,

1293
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 14: trending in the right direction. So it's not like this

1294
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 14: was an injury that kept getting worse and worse, snowballed in,

1295
01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:23,520
Speaker 14: Snowball got away from Ellie in the Reds should have

1296
01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:26,200
Speaker 14: shut him down in September. They should have done some

1297
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:29,400
Speaker 14: different stuff earlier in the process. But it's not like

1298
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:34,840
Speaker 14: this was some terrible, terrible, you know, tear that got

1299
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:38,120
Speaker 14: worse and worse, and was made worse and worse by

1300
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 14: keeping playing him every day through the finish line.

1301
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:46,440
Speaker 3: In your opinion, Charlie, Before I let you go, you

1302
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,600
Speaker 3: see BYU tomorrow night. Let's just round off what's going

1303
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 3: to be an unbelievable fun sports weekend. It's been a

1304
01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 3: little worrisome because we've seen more of sores By that

1305
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 3: we saw down the stretch last year. Over the last

1306
01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:00,320
Speaker 3: two games for the Bearcats, I feel like they've had

1307
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:03,320
Speaker 3: a lack of answers for man to man coverage. Have

1308
01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:06,160
Speaker 3: you seen anything in this team you finally get nip

1309
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:09,400
Speaker 3: a Knight Senior night, have you seen any anything that

1310
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 3: you can build on to say, Okay, they can turn

1311
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 3: this around, they can beat BYU, they can find a

1312
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 3: way to finish nine and three on the year.

1313
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:18,680
Speaker 14: Well, this is it, right, this is you know. Obviously

1314
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 14: the Big Twelve title hits took a disappointing title Hope

1315
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:26,040
Speaker 14: took a disappointing turn. But still, what a win against

1316
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,240
Speaker 14: a team like that on a stage like that in

1317
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,160
Speaker 14: a night game. We remember some unbelievable night games at

1318
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,000
Speaker 14: NIPPERK Stadium and how those just stick with you for

1319
01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:36,680
Speaker 14: a while. What a win on Saturday could just do

1320
01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 14: for the program. Even though the Big Twelve hopes that

1321
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 14: have taken a hit that's really significant, and it all

1322
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 14: comes back just to Sadderfield stores By in the ecosystem

1323
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,120
Speaker 14: for the passing game, the adjustment we all know they

1324
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:50,800
Speaker 14: need to make, finding more options against Manda man coverage,

1325
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:54,240
Speaker 14: finding more options against Flitzes, finding more ways to get

1326
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:57,960
Speaker 14: Joe Royer involved. Doing all that coming off of some

1327
01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:01,720
Speaker 14: frustrating performances from Soresby. It's a good test of the

1328
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:05,640
Speaker 14: resilience to resolve the ability to bounce back of this team.

1329
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:07,439
Speaker 14: And if they can do it, and if that pans out,

1330
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,200
Speaker 14: that's huge, and if not, then this season could end

1331
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 14: on a really disappointing note and you feel like you

1332
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:13,720
Speaker 14: haven't made enough progress.

1333
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:17,360
Speaker 3: Charlie Man, you are the absolute best. What is the

1334
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 3: easiest way? It's it's such a huge week for Cincinnati Sports,

1335
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 3: the stretch run, things going on with the Cincinnati Reds.

1336
01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:27,320
Speaker 3: What's the easiest way to follow along with everything you

1371
01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:49,080
Speaker 2: Wheelburrow? I like that.

1372
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:52,479
Speaker 16: I like that a lot. Well done. Hey guys, Jim

1373
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 16: and Milford. I think every NFL team has a sister

1374
01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:03,000
Speaker 16: team to them. Call it like a sister franchise. For

1375
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 16: the Bengals, I think it's the Buffalo Bills because they struggle,

1376
01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 16: like getting to struggling the playoffs, getting to the super Bowl.

1377
01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:18,599
Speaker 16: So I I root for the Bills. Who is your

1378
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,719
Speaker 16: sister team?

1379
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,960
Speaker 5: Well, there there's two directions I can go here, Like

1380
01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:27,719
Speaker 5: the sister team of the Cleveland Brott for the longest

1381
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:28,639
Speaker 5: time was the Lions.

1382
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:30,400
Speaker 4: It is no, it is not that anymore. It is

1383
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:31,120
Speaker 4: now the Jets.

1384
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:34,760
Speaker 5: But as far as like another NFL team, I root

1385
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:37,920

Speaker 5: Yeah, I do like the Lions. I still like the

01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 5: I love golf, I love Campbell, So yeah, I'm I

1389
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,040
Speaker 5: like the Lions as well.

1390
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:52,519
Speaker 15: Hey, it's me John Cunningham, spin doctor Chad Brindle Here.

1391
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:54,880
Speaker 4: What's up, guys.

1392
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 10: What a huge weekend in the city for sports.

1393
01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 17: The Scars tonight with the Cats versus Cards, tomorrow with

1394
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:03,480
Speaker 17: the That's versus Koog's, Sunday with the Bengals, and Pats

1395
01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:06,840
Speaker 17: wrapping it up with FCC versus Barcelona.

1396
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 10: Oh baby, some are even cold this weekend.

1397
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:17,520
Speaker 4: Brendalicious weekend, though, sounded like a nineties infomercial.

1398
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:22,040
Speaker 3: Unbelievable man, unbelievable man.

1399
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:26,080
Speaker 2: That Houston defense, yep is the bomb.

1400
01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,439
Speaker 4: Good question is Willie Anderson Jr?

1401
01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 12: Is that Willie Anderson's sons from who played for the Bengals?

1402
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,200
Speaker 2: Just curious, don't Willy Anderson Junior?

1403
01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:34,840
Speaker 17: What a beast?

1404
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:38,960
Speaker 12: Two point five sacks, three quarterback hits and three TFLs.

1405
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:40,000
Speaker 18: Man.

1406
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,720
Speaker 12: The Bills couldn't find a way to stop the Texans.

1407
01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:47,760
Speaker 12: So I bet Josh Allen's hurting this morning because he

1408
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:48,920
Speaker 12: got beat up pretty good.

1409
01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that there's any relation there.

1410
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 4: I'm just receiving where Josh Allen has been sacked yet again.

1411
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 2: Again.

1412
01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:59,439
Speaker 5: Yeah again, in the comfort of his own home, Will

1413
01:09:59,439 --> 01:10:01,799
Speaker 5: Anderson found a way around the blocking.

1414
01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:02,960
Speaker 2: Unbelievable.

1415
01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:04,800
Speaker 19: It's the lord.

1416
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:05,160
Speaker 10: Hey.

1417
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 19: I was listening to another radio show the other day

1418
01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:10,559
Speaker 19: and they were talking about these sports show hosts wearing

1419
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:15,000
Speaker 19: nice suits with gym shoes. What is your take on that?

1420
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,120
Speaker 19: Would you guys ever do that? I think it's sloppy

1421
01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 19: looking kind a way. Bengals seventeen.

1422
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:25,839
Speaker 1: Pat ten.

1423
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,720
Speaker 5: You really think you're gonna hold the Patriots offense to

1424
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:31,519
Speaker 5: ten points?

1425
01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:33,479
Speaker 2: I mean if that's the case, then the season's back

1426
01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:34,639
Speaker 2: on because the defense is back.

1427
01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:36,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, the defense is rolling there.

1428
01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:36,559
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1429
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 4: I suits sneakers with suits. Thought, it's okay with that.

1430
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:41,679
Speaker 4: It depends on the sneaker.

1431
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:43,280
Speaker 3: Yea, It depends on the sneaker, and it depends on

1432
01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:46,080
Speaker 3: the event. Yes, correct. More times than not, I'm going

1433
01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:47,800
Speaker 3: dress shoes, but I'll throw one in.

1434
01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:51,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm I am a dress shoes guy, but I

1435
01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:54,639
Speaker 5: don't mind people as long as the shoe looks good

1436
01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 5: with what you're wearing.

1437
01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 2: If the shoe fits, wear it correct.

1438
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:02,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, with a heavy heart, Tony, and I tell you

1439
01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:05,439
Speaker 10: that I've decided to divorce the Cincinnati Reds.

1440
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:08,959
Speaker 20: Oh no, no, my lawyers already gathered up all the paperwork.

1441
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:10,000
Speaker 10: I've already signed it.

1442
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:11,559
Speaker 4: We've sent over to Nick Krawl.

1443
01:11:12,120 --> 01:11:14,759

01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean all time, all time Red look kicking

Speaker 22: It's sunny hot to this kind of flect the city

1452
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:36,800
Speaker 22: this weekend. Man, you see basketball, can we score twelve

1453
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,479
Speaker 22: points off of free throws? Play aggressive and give me

1454
01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:42,880
Speaker 22: that one point blowout? At least you see football, show

1455
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:46,240
Speaker 22: some mocks, he plays some defense. Coach Scatt, don't don't

1456
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,760
Speaker 22: Coach Scare, throw the kitchen, sink out, get the win

1457
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 22: by threep she Cincinnati sitting to go home. I'm tired

1458
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:54,800
Speaker 22: of talking that mess. It's kind to send messy away.

1459
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:57,680
Speaker 22: And Bengals, dare I say, put off a shocker? I

1460
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,000
Speaker 22: think they're gonna win this weekend. So you're saying kids,

1461
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,639
Speaker 22: kitchen sink day. Kitchen sink game man, all right, let's

1462
01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:04,599
Speaker 22: throw the sink at him. Does feel like it does

1463
01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:06,400
Speaker 22: need to be a kitchen sink game for SAT.

1464
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:07,160
Speaker 2: I'm good with that.

1465
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,759
Speaker 23: Hello, this is former President Ronald again Rone.

1466
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:12,040
Speaker 4: Wait.

1467
01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 23: I don't know about you, but I would feel a

1468
01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 23: whole lot more comfortable with Joe Burrow playing if we

1469
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:22,599
Speaker 23: had an offensive line. Oh oh, and also a defense.

1470
01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:25,160
Speaker 2: I mean, but what do I know.

1471
01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:27,320
Speaker 23: I'm just a dead former president.

1472
01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:30,200
Speaker 5: I'll give the Bengals O line a little bit of

1473
01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:33,599
Speaker 5: they've gotten better. It does feel like they've improved week

1474
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:36,360
Speaker 5: to week. They've played a little better now. Maybe some

1475
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:38,200
Speaker 5: of that may have to do with how quickly Joe

1476
01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:40,640
Speaker 5: Flacco gets rid of the football, but I do and

1477
01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 5: they've run the ball too, so that points to me

1478
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:44,960
Speaker 5: that the offensive line is getting better.

1479
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:48,840
Speaker 15: Ben Tone, welcome back.

1480
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:51,240
Speaker 24: This is my first talkback since you've been back. So

1481
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 24: we'll get this here. You talk about WW since Austin

1482
01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:57,519
Speaker 24: didn't want to talk about it.

1483
01:12:57,640 --> 01:12:57,840
Speaker 11: Yep.

1484
01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:00,400
Speaker 10: Curious what you think about Surbervracy.

1485
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:02,479
Speaker 7: And Drew.

1486
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:04,080
Speaker 10: Question for you, how do you.

1487
01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:06,880
Speaker 24: Think our calves looked so far? I know we didn't

1488
01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,000
Speaker 24: start out the season with the record, But what do you.

1489
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:13,519
Speaker 3: Think you want to go first with your w W. Well, yeah,

1490
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 3: thanks for the talkback. I'm all in on Survivor series.

1491
01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:19,840
Speaker 3: I think the the the matchups they had are are

1492
01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:23,919
Speaker 3: more enticing than the last couple of pay per views. Obviously,

1493
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:27,080
Speaker 3: everything around Sena and his farewell tour has been much watched,

1494
01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,280
Speaker 3: but I thought Monday's Monday Night rawl was the best

1495
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:32,439
Speaker 3: raw in quite some time. Hopefully that builds on that

1496
01:13:32,479 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 3: for for WW.

1497
01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:36,960
Speaker 5: As far as the Calves go, you know, they haven't

1498
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:38,960
Speaker 5: looked great to start the season, but they're still ten

1499
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:42,360
Speaker 5: and six. Darius Garland has not played a lot. Speaking

1500
01:13:42,400 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 5: of athletes with toe injuries, he reinjured his toe that

1501
01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:48,320
Speaker 5: he had surgery on. But here's my thing with the

1502
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,160
Speaker 5: Cleveland Cavaliers. If you're gonna sit here and tell me

1503
01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:53,639
Speaker 5: that the only thing that matters to Cleave the Calves

1504
01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,599
Speaker 5: is what happens in April and May, then you can't

1505
01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:58,200
Speaker 5: freak out about what's going on in November.

1506
01:13:58,240 --> 01:13:59,280
Speaker 4: You just can't.

1507
01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:02,640
Speaker 5: I'm tired of people who will say, like, well, all

1508
01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:04,439
Speaker 5: that matters is the playoffs, and then they're freaking out

1509
01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 5: when they lose a November game.

1510
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:07,479
Speaker 4: To the Houston Rockets. So there we go.

1511
01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:14,600
Speaker 25: Yes, Hello, Hello, Hello, I'm looking for a horseman, a

1512
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,600
Speaker 25: horseman out of Louisville.

1513
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:19,000
Speaker 2: If you tell.

1514
01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:26,800
Speaker 25: Him, the Cincinnati barricat, American Dream is looking for him,

1515
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:34,840
Speaker 25: and it's going down. It's going down Friday night. The

1516
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:38,040
Speaker 25: American Dream is gonna take you down.

1517
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:40,360
Speaker 2: The American Dream, Dusty Roads.

1518
01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 13: Thank you, Tony Hey. You asked what the pathway is.

1519
01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:49,200
Speaker 13: The Victory of Joe Burrow plays on Sunday. Now this

1520
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:53,000
Speaker 13: may be contrary to popular belief, but what if the

1521
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:56,800
Speaker 13: Bengals just running up tempo offense basically the whole gamer

1522
01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,840
Speaker 13: as long as they can get that New England defense tired,

1523
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,480
Speaker 13: break them up, give them something that they're not expecting.

1524
01:15:02,880 --> 01:15:06,120
Speaker 13: You said, Zach Taylor's kind of got Rabel's number. I

1525
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:08,920
Speaker 13: think enough tempo might work keeps our defense out there

1526
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:09,360
Speaker 13: on the field.

1527
01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:09,719
Speaker 18: Marger.

1528
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:11,640
Speaker 10: But but let's see.

1529
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:15,080
Speaker 3: All right, listen, that would that would call uh, that

1530
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:18,200
Speaker 3: would fall under kitchen sink. Everything with the kitchen sink

1531
01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:18,760
Speaker 3: I'm good with.

1532
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:21,720
Speaker 5: And I just the thing that if you're running up

1533
01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:25,519
Speaker 5: tempo and you just a couple three outs and you're

1534
01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:27,439
Speaker 5: you're trotting that defense out in trouble.

1535
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:28,720
Speaker 4: You're you're in trouble.

1536
01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:33,719
Speaker 26: This DJ, DJ, what do we continue to have to learn?

1537
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:39,840
Speaker 26: Texans versus Bills good defense, mother's offense. Last year Philadelphia

1538
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,919
Speaker 26: won because of their defense in the Super Bowl. Kansas

1539
01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 26: City won multiple championships because of Spagnola and the defense.

1540
01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:50,719
Speaker 2: And yes, yes, uh Mahomes is good.

1541
01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:53,840
Speaker 26: But the Bengals, as I've said all along, their team

1542
01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:55,120
Speaker 26: is constructed all wrong.

1543
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 2: The top.

1544
01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:59,519
Speaker 5: Oh, he was gonna make a great point at the end,

1545
01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:01,040
Speaker 5: I could face that was building up.

1546
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:08,559
Speaker 27: Yeah, Hey, tonight for the Bearcat basketball team Louisville, I

1547
01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:12,639
Speaker 27: think it's real good. I'd be surprised if you see

1548
01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 27: one stranger things have happened. Yeah, big game tomorrow for

1549
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 27: the football team, if if, if they beat b Yu,

1550
01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:23,599
Speaker 27: that's a real nice victory.

1551
01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:28,160
Speaker 2: I think got help sad or field a staff.

1552
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 3: Seasons back on, season, back on, you know, And that's

1553
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:33,679
Speaker 3: why they that's why they roll the ball out there, Jed,

1554
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:36,120
Speaker 3: That's why they roll the ball out there because anything

1555
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:37,840
Speaker 3: can happen in college basketball.

1556
01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:41,120
Speaker 5: That's especially true and especially in that building.

1557
01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:44,080
Speaker 2: Also true because.

1558
01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:46,400
Speaker 5: Lord knows, it takes a special, special kind of person

1559
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:48,800
Speaker 5: to be able to shoot in that building. That's why

1560
01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:50,600
Speaker 5: Kobe Braan went like seven for eight a couple of

1561
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:51,040
Speaker 5: years ago.

1562
01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:56,120
Speaker 28: Tonight at pit Core Stadium, home of the Elder Panthers,

1563
01:16:56,360 --> 01:17:02,320
Speaker 28: Wow diffused. The Older Panthers will defeating the Saint Xavier

1564
01:17:02,360 --> 01:17:04,640
Speaker 28: Bombers twenty to thirteen.

1565
01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:08,200
Speaker 4: Sco Panthers, good luck on the fourteen. We got one.

1566
01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:11,639
Speaker 4: We got one prediction on the board.

1567
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 20: For Elder Tony, Greg Sharonville creig On, Wes Miller. A

1568
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:19,759
Speaker 20: great showing tonight, not necessarily win, but a high effort

1569
01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:23,320
Speaker 20: showing and a win over Xavier, and I'll stay off.

1570
01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:24,639
Speaker 10: He's back the rest of the year.

1571
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:26,640
Speaker 2: Deal. You know what I hate about this?

1572
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 3: I hate the thought of going to a sporting event

1573
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:32,679
Speaker 3: already conceding that the team my root for is gonna

1574
01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:33,280
Speaker 3: gonna lose.

1575
01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:36,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate that feeling. I want to believe.

1576
01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:39,639
Speaker 5: The thing is, though, is that there is like it's

1577
01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:42,839
Speaker 5: not an impossibility that you see, like can win Whisky,

1578
01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,080
Speaker 5: Like they can go in and win this game for sure,

1579
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,759
Speaker 5: Like like you said, it's college basketball. Anything can happen

1580
01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:51,439
Speaker 5: early season or yeah, early season, yeah anything can have

1581
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:53,080
Speaker 5: you see can win the game tonight?

1582
01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:56,919
Speaker 4: Now I would give the big edge to Louisville.

1583
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:59,200
Speaker 5: But if I you know, if I watch the game

1584
01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:01,760
Speaker 5: tonight and you see walked walked out of it with

1585
01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:03,880
Speaker 5: a win, a win, I wouldn't be shocked and I

1586
01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:05,559
Speaker 5: wouldn't think any less of Louisville for it.

1587
01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:05,920
Speaker 10: Yeah.

1588
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:12,360
Speaker 17: Hey, guys, it'st in Atlanta, Tony yesterday and you discussion

1589
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:14,800
Speaker 17: with Chadd Breundle about Scott Soudderfield.

1590
01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:17,080
Speaker 2: I think you were being rather charitable.

1591
01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:21,360
Speaker 20: But certainly the inference is that Scott Souderfield is not

1592
01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:24,960
Speaker 20: very smart, demonstrably dumb.

1593
01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:27,120
Speaker 4: And of course so is Zach Taylor.

1594
01:18:28,240 --> 01:18:32,719
Speaker 17: And you cannot be competitive in football with a dumb

1595
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:33,280
Speaker 17: head coach.

1596
01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:38,439
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, be successful with a dumb head coach. I

1597
01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:39,840
Speaker 3: don't think Scott Suderfield's dumb.

1598
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:44,360
Speaker 18: So I'm gonna need some more love for the Northern

1599
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,040
Speaker 18: Kentucky high school football.

1600
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:48,520
Speaker 4: Why do you never do pick'em's?

1601
01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:56,639
Speaker 18: Highlands, Cove Cat, New Cath All those schools have good

1602
01:18:56,680 --> 01:19:00,559
Speaker 18: shots at winning state and you just totally ignore them.

1603
01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:03,720
Speaker 5: Because here's the dirty little secret in ain't Ohio high

1604
01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:04,439
Speaker 5: school football.

1605
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:07,840
Speaker 3: Now, now that that's been brought to my attention, I

1606
01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:10,400
Speaker 3: will keep track of what's happening. In Kentucky, and we'll

1607
01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:12,639
Speaker 3: see if we can throw them on the list next week.

1608
01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:14,479
Speaker 3: I think if there's I think there's a path. If

1609
01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:17,080
Speaker 3: they both win, Cuff Kathy and Highlands would play next week,

1610
01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:18,479
Speaker 3: that would surely make the list.

1611
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:19,400
Speaker 4: I would definitely make the list.

1612
01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:21,679
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, just keep listening and we'll get there.

1613
01:19:23,320 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 21: Hey, fella's got my tickets down, going down to pay

1614

1616
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:38,559

1619
01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:53,760
Speaker 29: honor of my late nephew, Kyle Swanson, who's passed away

1620
01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:55,480
Speaker 29: at the tender age of twenty.

1621
01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:56,639

1625
01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 2: So for Kyle, thanks, I like it.

1626
01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:14,040

1633
01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:31,000
Speaker 30: pants playing real defense with the Texans last night. Real

1634
01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:33,600
Speaker 30: pressure on the QB guys, converging on a tackle that

1635
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,599
Speaker 30: was fun to watch. Meanwhile, our defense is still running

1636
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:37,400
Speaker 30: around pamps.

1637
01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:39,400
Speaker 31: Looks like they've got a loaded to change out too,

1638
01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:42,080
Speaker 31: and see if Audie's beloved Zach can get this to

1639
01:20:42,120 --> 01:20:45,200

1641
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:54,000
Speaker 4: And Anders throat there, Josh Allen has just gotten sacked again.

1642
01:20:54,240 --> 01:20:59,080
Speaker 32: Gosh, Drew and Tony Drew from South Beat Boom Friday,

1643
01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:02,120

01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:16,679
Speaker 4: She says, I hope you die a slow and miserable death. Hikes.

1649
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:18,800
Speaker 4: He says, Oh, you must want me to stay, then

1650
01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 4: I have a great weekend.

1651
01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:20,200
Speaker 10: Guys.

1652
01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:25,720
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's a o unbelievable.

1653
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 24: Hey, guys, Marcus from the grove.

1654
01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:32,360
Speaker 13: What I'm Marcus as a Kentucky Wildcat fan.

1655
01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:36,120
Speaker 24: I ever thought i'd say this, So Tony, soak it in.

1656
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:41,519
Speaker 2: Ooh ooh.

1657
01:21:43,240 --> 01:21:43,719
Speaker 33: You see.

1658
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 2: Let's go Marcus, Let's go. Hel's down baby, Let's go Sneaky.

1659
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:53,280
Speaker 5: One of the best rivalries in sports, Kentucky and Louisville.

1660
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:58,960
Speaker 5: There is some real, real hatred there. Ell down says Marcus, Hell's.

1661
01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:01,559
Speaker 19: Down lord in a double dip. So when do they

1662
01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:05,200
Speaker 19: have to disclose whether Joe Burrow is playing or not?

1663
01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:10,000
Speaker 3: He'll be made active and reactive. I believe Saturday by four,

1664
01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:13,599
Speaker 3: and then what ninety minutes before kickoff would be official.

1665
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:18,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, well they'd have to put him on the roster tomorrow,

1666
01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:20,760
Speaker 5: and then if he's on the roster, then it would

1667
01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:23,639
Speaker 5: be ninety minutes before the start of the game. Would

1668
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:26,479
Speaker 5: be one we'll know for sure, all right, last one

1669
01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:27,639
Speaker 5: unless one comes in at the buzzer.

1670
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:28,320
Speaker 2: All right, all right.

1671
01:22:30,160 --> 01:22:34,360
Speaker 33: Boy, anyway, anyways, Tony, Donny, Donny, how come you're not

1672
01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:36,040
Speaker 33: talking about Mary and a Local.

1673
01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:38,120
Speaker 2: Let's talk about this dominant.

1674
01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 33: High school football team in the state of Ohile in

1675
01:22:41,240 --> 01:22:45,439
Speaker 33: the last thirty years. They should be front and center.

1676
01:22:45,520 --> 01:22:49,439
Speaker 33: We should be breaking down their whole organization. Maybe they

1677
01:22:50,200 --> 01:22:53,880
Speaker 33: someone from that school could help in the Bengals front office.

1678
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:57,599
Speaker 33: It seems to me that they know how to develop talent.

1679
01:22:58,240 --> 01:22:59,479
Speaker 4: So we discussed this.

1680
01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 5: Put this on the Pickham segment because I was on

1681
01:23:02,560 --> 01:23:06,240
Speaker 5: today as the D seven football connoisseur of Ohio high

1682
01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:10,719
Speaker 5: school football. Tonight, Saint Henry versus Maryon Local.

1683
01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:12,040
Speaker 2: This is huge.

1684
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:14,680
Speaker 5: This is the D seven state championship game. I think

1685
01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:17,280
Speaker 5: whoever wins this game is going on to cut down

1686
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:20,320
Speaker 5: the nets. Mary Local has won a billion games in

1687
01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:23,519
Speaker 5: a row. Saint Henry took him to the wires this

1688
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 5: year in the regular season. Tony, who you got? I'm

1689
01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:30,719
Speaker 5: going with history. I'm going with Mary going maryon Local.

1690
01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:33,719
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say the streak ends. No, give me Saint

1691
01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:40,040
Speaker 5: Henry over maryon Local. Tonight in Wallpawk, whoa in Wallpawk.

Speaker 5: I'm gonna take Saint Henry over Mariyon Local.

1693
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:46,679
Speaker 2: I believe it's seventy six consecutive victories.

1694
01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:51,960
Speaker 5: Yep over one of those over my beloved Layman Catholic

1695
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:54,639
Speaker 5: Cavaliers didn't quite have the offense going to Sidney.

1696
01:23:54,720 --> 01:23:57,280
Speaker 3: Layman also came down to Veterans Memorial Stadium and took

1697
01:23:57,280 --> 01:24:00,839
Speaker 3: a beating once before in basketball. And I had basketball

1698
01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:02,559
Speaker 3: or football, But either way it was a beatdown.

1699
01:24:02,640 --> 01:24:05,679
Speaker 5: That feels more likely that it was basketball as opposed

1700
01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:06,480
Speaker 5: to football.

1701
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,080
Speaker 2: That way way back in the day. Though either way

1702
01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:08,720
Speaker 2: it was a beat down.

1703
01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:09,599
Speaker 4: It was all right.

1704
01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:11,120

1723
01:25:04,520 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 5: got Oklahoma Missouri. Just Oklahoma coming off a huge, huge

1724
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:13,800
Speaker 5: win over Alabama playing at home against a pretty like

1725
01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:16,200
Speaker 5: gamy Missouri team. I don't know how like really like

1726
01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 5: quote unquote good they are, but they're gonna give them

1727
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,400
Speaker 5: a game. And yeah, you're right, it is kind of

1728
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,160
Speaker 5: a weaker. Yeah, it's a down week, down week in

1729
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:28,040
Speaker 5: college football this week, you know, kind of looking around USC,

1730
01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:31,960
Speaker 5: Oregon obviously, we talked about that in Pickham as well.

1731
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:36,000
Speaker 5: Trying to venture outside of the Pickham world. Uh, Notre

1732
01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:39,280
Speaker 5: Dame and Syracuse. Notre Dame has looked awesome. Yeah, they

1733
01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:41,880
Speaker 5: beat the Brakes off pit last week in at at

1734
01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:46,240
Speaker 5: top eighty and a half. Yeah, that's that is a crazy,

1735
01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 5: crazy number. The question with Notre Dame I have is

1736
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:53,040
Speaker 5: are they going to get to that eight seed and

1737
01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:56,599
Speaker 5: host a college football playoff game? So that that's what I'm

1738
01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:59,960
Speaker 5: keeping an eye on. Tulane, who is currently the Group

1739
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:03,160
Speaker 5: five representative in the playoff, places Temple this weekend on

1740
01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 5: the road, So that's another one to keep an eye on. Tennessee,

1741
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:08,240
Speaker 5: Florida is Friday night.

1742
01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:11,840
Speaker 3: So remember remember paton Nordws, he didn't care about losing

1743
01:26:11,840 --> 01:26:13,439
Speaker 3: by one hundred to Notre Dame as long as they

1744
01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:15,679
Speaker 3: win the next two. So they got to beat Georgia

1745
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:17,920
Speaker 3: Tech to keep their acc hopes alive. That's one to

1746
01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:20,840
Speaker 3: watch them selfishly. If you're looking at a path, a

1747
01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:22,840
Speaker 3: small window, a small path for the bear catch, you

1748
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,479
Speaker 3: need a lot of things to happen. Can can Kansas

1749
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 3: State and Avery Johnson upset Utah on the road? Can

1750
01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:31,519
Speaker 3: t see you upset Houston on the road. Those are

1751
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:32,880
Speaker 3: two big twelve matchups.

1752
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:35,280
Speaker 4: Kansas State. I will have my and a half.

1753
01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:39,719
Speaker 2: This is insane, insane. What about the NFL? Same question, NFL?

1754
01:26:40,120 --> 01:26:44,320
Speaker 5: You know a couple more We talked about Rams, Yeah, Bucks, Rams, Chiefs, Colts.

1755
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 5: That's that's kind of your you know, your marketing games

1756
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:52,200
Speaker 5: this week obviously Shader Sanders' first career start out in

1757
01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:53,800
Speaker 5: Vegas at four h five.

1758
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:55,679
Speaker 4: If you're a masochists like myself.

1759
01:26:56,280 --> 01:26:58,439
Speaker 2: Anything on Aaron Rodgers officially, yet.

1760
01:26:58,240 --> 01:27:00,960
Speaker 5: He is actually we just had quote from Mike Tomlin

1761
01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:04,280
Speaker 5: come down five minutes ago from rap sheet. He said

1762
01:27:04,280 --> 01:27:07,400
Speaker 5: he's questionable. We'll see where the weekend leads us, says

1763
01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:12,280
Speaker 5: Mike Tomlin. So Aaron Rodgers officially questionable against the Bears,

1764
01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:15,280
Speaker 5: and my gut says that Aaron Rodgers is really really

1765
01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:17,120
Speaker 5: going to try and angle to play because there's nothing

1766
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:20,000
Speaker 5: he loves more than sticking it to the city of Chicago.

1767
01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:23,320
Speaker 3: Before we take a break, since this is football in

1768
01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:25,840
Speaker 3: the Natty, let me venture outside to what's going on

1769
01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:28,280
Speaker 3: football outside of the Natty. Now, we don't get this

1770
01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:30,160

1771
01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:33,799
Speaker 3: on the pick them sheet. They're done, But that doesn't

1772
01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:38,040
Speaker 3: stop me from wishing the sixth grade around Blue Devil squad.

1773
01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:38,679
Speaker 2: Good luck.

1774
01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:43,559
Speaker 3: They're going down Drew to my favorite place on earth, Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

1775
01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:49,280

01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:08,679

01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:10,120

01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:05,760

1802
01:29:14,040 --> 01:29:14,280
Speaker 2: Yep.

1803
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:17,000
Speaker 11: I'm enjoying the show today, Drew. You're doing a great

1804
01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:20,280
Speaker 11: job and it's a nice change of pace from Austin

1805
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:24,200
Speaker 11: just for something different thing. Thanks. Yeah, you deserve it.

1806
01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:29,759
Speaker 11: I'm sure Tony agrees. You guys were talking earlier about

1807
01:29:31,320 --> 01:29:34,800
Speaker 11: I think you were about high school recruits, but I

1808
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:39,120
Speaker 11: may be wrong. Football recruits. And it's an interesting topic

1809
01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:44,439
Speaker 11: to me because Texas, well Texas, Florida, and California for years,

1810
01:29:44,479 --> 01:29:46,840
Speaker 11: are considered this three hot dads. That's been that way

1811
01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:50,000
Speaker 11: for a long time. But for this twenty twenty five season,

1812
01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:55,440
Speaker 11: Texas leads with forty two either four or five star recruits.

1813
01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:58,920
Speaker 11: Then Florida's got thirty seven. California is down a little

1814
01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:03,839
Speaker 11: bit this year with three or twenty four. Georgia. Actually

1815
01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:07,479
Speaker 11: Georgia moved into the third spot. Georgia is becoming quite

1816
01:30:07,479 --> 01:30:13,320
Speaker 11: the hotbed, yeah, for recruits. Then I think Ohio's got

1817
01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:19,400
Speaker 11: thirteen the two Big Ones or Taviantavian Saint Clair. He's

1818
01:30:19,400 --> 01:30:21,920
Speaker 11: going to Ohio state of course, supposed to be a

1819
01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:22,759
Speaker 11: hell of a quarterback.

1820
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:25,400
Speaker 3: You know about him time, Yes, I think so much

1821
01:30:25,439 --> 01:30:28,000
Speaker 3: about this is interesting as well because of what's been

1822
01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:31,880
Speaker 3: happening out of Wayne with the player that they had.

1823
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:34,880
Speaker 3: They they went and filed a lawsuit about Nil now

1824
01:30:35,640 --> 01:30:39,320
Speaker 3: in holding high school athletes back. So now we're talking

1825
01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:42,120
Speaker 3: about nil getting into Ohio high schools, and if that's

1826
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:44,160
Speaker 3: the case, I think you can get down a little

1827
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:45,320
Speaker 3: bit of a dangerous lope.

1828
01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:50,559
Speaker 11: And the other five star guy coming out of Ohio

1829
01:30:50,880 --> 01:30:53,880
Speaker 11: was a guy named Terry McNutt, and he's going out

1830
01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:56,840
Speaker 11: to Oregon. He's a defensive back, I believe, so. I

1831
01:30:56,840 --> 01:30:57,960
Speaker 11: didn't know if you've heard of him.

1832
01:30:58,080 --> 01:30:58,280
Speaker 2: Yep.

1833
01:30:58,479 --> 01:31:01,639
Speaker 11: I just think those are interesting. It's interesting to kind

1834
01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:04,800
Speaker 11: of keep an eye on where these all these kids

1835
01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:09,000
Speaker 11: come from, especially the really good ones. I wanted to

1836
01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:14,760
Speaker 11: ask you about this Bucks Rams game coming up. The

1837
01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:17,080
Speaker 11: Bucks just can't get out of the world. I'm not

1838
01:31:17,120 --> 01:31:19,040
Speaker 11: so sure Todd Bowles is a great coach.

1839
01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:19,640
Speaker 8: I'm not.

1840
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:24,160
Speaker 11: I'm just not he's a defensive coach. If it wasn't

1841
01:31:24,160 --> 01:31:25,920
Speaker 11: for Baker, they wouldn't be very good.

1842
01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:27,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1843
01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:30,360
Speaker 3: I also don't know that, Like the situation around Bucky

1844
01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:33,880
Speaker 3: Irving has just been really bizarre. They're running back here. Yeah,

1845
01:31:33,920 --> 01:31:36,639
Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on with that. They've had

1846
01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:40,479
Speaker 3: obviously injuries, with with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in

1847
01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:41,559
Speaker 3: a host of others.

1848
01:31:41,680 --> 01:31:43,479
Speaker 4: Third offensive coordinator in three years.

1849
01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:46,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot going on. There's such a likable

1850
01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:48,880
Speaker 3: team that I want to do well. But you wonder

1851
01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:51,360
Speaker 3: if everything going on finally catches up to him.

1852
01:31:52,479 --> 01:31:56,600
Speaker 11: That's what I'm thinking, especially when they're playing the Juggernaut,

1853
01:31:56,760 --> 01:31:59,240
Speaker 11: in my opinion, the Rams. But I'll tell you one

1854
01:31:59,240 --> 01:32:01,760
Speaker 11: thing they do have down here at Tampa. They got

1855
01:32:01,920 --> 01:32:05,679
Speaker 11: in my opinion, they have the two best tackles in football.

1856
01:32:05,840 --> 01:32:08,439
Speaker 11: Christian Whorf's is the best tackle. He's the only tackle

1857
01:32:08,479 --> 01:32:11,240
Speaker 11: that's ever been voted All Pro right and left tackle.

1858
01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:14,479
Speaker 11: Nobody's ever done that before. So they talk about Lane Johnson,

1859
01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:18,400
Speaker 11: Lane Johnson, Lane Johnson up at Philly whatever. But these

1860
01:32:18,439 --> 01:32:21,120
Speaker 11: two cats can really play. But like you said, they

1861
01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:24,559
Speaker 11: just there's always guys getting dimmed up on that team,

1862
01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:26,080
Speaker 11: and I don't understand that.

1863
01:32:26,160 --> 01:32:28,599
Speaker 3: And I think the good thing for them after they

1864
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:31,439
Speaker 3: get through this gauntlet that they've been on. They finished

1865
01:32:31,479 --> 01:32:35,240
Speaker 3: the season with Arizona, New Orleans, Atlanta, Carolina, Miami and Carolina,

1866
01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:37,400
Speaker 3: I think they got a chance to be one of

1867
01:32:37,439 --> 01:32:39,960
Speaker 3: the hotter teams going at the end of the year,

1868
01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:42,479
Speaker 3: just based on the schedule easy. I mean they they've

1869
01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:46,439
Speaker 3: been you want to talk about a Philadelphia, Seattle, San Francisco, Detroit,

1870
01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:50,240
Speaker 3: New England, Buffalo. They're getting to the easier part of

1871
01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:52,599
Speaker 3: their schedule after this weekend, and I think that'll benefit

1872
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:53,160
Speaker 3: well for them.

1873
01:32:54,120 --> 01:32:56,840
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think you're right. And another thing is, well,

1874
01:32:56,880 --> 01:33:00,960
Speaker 11: I think is it the same old thing Dak's down

1875
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:03,479
Speaker 11: in Dallas, that he's gonna have a good regular season

1876
01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:06,320
Speaker 11: and then choke out with his history in the first Yeah,

1877
01:33:06,920 --> 01:33:08,080
Speaker 11: what do you think about him?

1878
01:33:08,160 --> 01:33:10,800
Speaker 2: If they can get into the playoffs? I just don't know.

1879
01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:15,040
Speaker 3: I don't know if they can get in with with

1880
01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:17,920
Speaker 3: where their defense is. But yeah, until I see it

1881
01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:19,880
Speaker 3: from Dak, I I gotta see it there.

1882
01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:22,360
Speaker 5: Leaving their current probability to make the playoffs is six.

1883
01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:25,519
Speaker 5: Speak to the Eagles, it drops to three.

1884
01:33:26,479 --> 01:33:27,280
Speaker 10: Yeah, okay.

1885
01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:30,640
Speaker 11: And I keep hearing people saying that maybe Dallas is

1886
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:31,840
Speaker 11: getting better at a good time.

1887
01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:34,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, well whatever, there's just a lot of.

1888
01:33:36,000 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, you're right, there's a totem. The other thing

1889
01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:40,760
Speaker 11: I wonder and if you got to go, just tell me,

1890
01:33:40,800 --> 01:33:41,280
Speaker 11: I'll hang up.

1891
01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:43,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I gotta we gotta we gotta we gotta one

1892
01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:44,280
Speaker 2: more here. What do you got?

1893
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:48,280
Speaker 11: Okay? So I heard Ted talking about this yesterday. His

1894
01:33:48,400 --> 01:33:53,120
Speaker 11: opinion is, and you guys telling me his opinion is

1895
01:33:53,400 --> 01:33:56,400
Speaker 11: the problem with the Reds and the Bengals doesn't, isn't.

1896
01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:58,880
Speaker 11: I mean, it can be these gms, it can be.

1897
01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:02,080
Speaker 11: But the problem with the Bengal of the Reds is

1898
01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:05,360
Speaker 11: too many partners in the ownership, too many people to

1899
01:34:05,600 --> 01:34:08,479
Speaker 11: decide on what money to spend, what money not to spend.

1900
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:11,439
Speaker 11: Castelini doesn't have bipart, doesn't he even have fifty one

1901
01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:14,320
Speaker 11: percent of the team, And with the Bengals, you've got

1902
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,080
Speaker 11: a fifties mentality of the way things used to be,

1903
01:34:17,680 --> 01:34:20,200
Speaker 11: with the few exceptions this year. So do you think

1904
01:34:20,240 --> 01:34:23,280
Speaker 11: the real problem was with the ownership or who's running

1905
01:34:23,320 --> 01:34:26,439
Speaker 11: the joints? On both cases? I thing you too.

1906
01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:28,960
Speaker 3: I think there's Mike. I appreciate the call. Will answered

1907
01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:30,719
Speaker 3: this as well. I think there's a lot of cooks

1908
01:34:30,760 --> 01:34:35,840
Speaker 3: in the kitchen. I understand that. But my biggest problem,

1909
01:34:36,320 --> 01:34:39,639
Speaker 3: especially with the Bengals, the scheme doesn't match the personnel.

1910
01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:43,000
Speaker 3: And I think that's a Zach Taylor Duke Tobin thing

1911
01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:45,640
Speaker 3: because I think Mike Brown has shown the ability to say, hey,

1912
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:50,040
Speaker 3: I'm willing to spend money. They've upgraded the stadium, They've

1913
01:34:50,040 --> 01:34:52,840
Speaker 3: brought in the Ring of Honor, they've paid money, They've

1914
01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:55,439
Speaker 3: done things in contracts they haven't done. I think they're

1915
01:34:55,439 --> 01:34:58,000
Speaker 3: willing to do it. I just don't think the personnel

1916
01:34:58,040 --> 01:35:01,120
Speaker 3: matches the scheme, and I think that leads to a

1917
01:35:01,160 --> 01:35:02,200
Speaker 3: lot of problems.

1918
01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:06,200
Speaker 5: That's where I'll keep it. Yep, I agree, I agree

1919
01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:07,960
Speaker 5: with all that. I agree with everything you said there.

1955
01:37:06,760 --> 01:37:11,640
Speaker 3: before we get to Miamie, the scenes, the emotion, the

1956
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:15,599
Speaker 3: moment when the final whistle blew against Columbus, seeing what

1957
01:37:15,640 --> 01:37:18,920
Speaker 3: this FC Cincinnati did, they bounced back from the loss

1958
01:37:18,960 --> 01:37:22,080
Speaker 3: in Columbus. What was that moment like for you and

1959
01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:26,559
Speaker 3: sharing that with so many fans at TQL Stadium that

1960
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:29,880
Speaker 3: they got past Columbus and now so much is still

1961
01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:30,639
Speaker 3: ahead of the squad.

1962
01:37:31,560 --> 01:37:34,519
Speaker 17: Yeah, it was pretty It was pretty special, pretty spectacular, Tony.

1963
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:36,960
Speaker 17: The press conference today with Pat new if you didn't

1964
01:37:36,960 --> 01:37:38,240
Speaker 17: see it, a reporter.

1965
01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:40,960
Speaker 10: Asked the question about how the team kind of feets.

1966
01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:42,719
Speaker 17: Off the energy or if it's different in the playoffs

1967
01:37:42,720 --> 01:37:45,080
Speaker 17: something on those lines, and Pack kind of looked at

1968
01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:47,519
Speaker 17: him and said, you were there right in Game three.

1969
01:37:47,640 --> 01:37:50,760
Speaker 17: You felt that energy was different, and there's no doubt

1970
01:37:50,840 --> 01:37:53,479
Speaker 17: the guys feel that energy as well. And man, the

1971
01:37:53,640 --> 01:37:57,160
Speaker 17: energy in that Game three against Columbus was just off

1972
01:37:57,360 --> 01:38:01,200
Speaker 17: the charts, Like the place was buzzing. I mean it

1973
01:38:01,240 --> 01:38:03,439
Speaker 17: was buzzing as soon as they opened the gates ninety

1974
01:38:03,439 --> 01:38:06,439
Speaker 17: minutes before kick and people start filing in that the

1975
01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:09,000
Speaker 17: way that that game built and then FC Cincinnati falls

1976
01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:10,960
Speaker 17: behind and then immediately ties the act and.

1977
01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:11,800
Speaker 10: Then wins it later.

1978
01:38:12,800 --> 01:38:13,320
Speaker 4: It was.

1979
01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:17,200
Speaker 10: It was spectacular and it really I.

1980
01:38:17,120 --> 01:38:19,479
Speaker 17: Think, and I hope, you know, we'll see how things

1981
01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:21,640
Speaker 17: go against Miami, but I really hope that that the

1982
01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:25,560
Speaker 17: way that they won proves to be a massive confidence

1983
01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:30,479
Speaker 17: boost in favor of Cincinnati because they found a way

1984
01:38:30,840 --> 01:38:34,000
Speaker 17: into their rival, you know, to come from behind in

1985
01:38:34,040 --> 01:38:35,760
Speaker 17: the second half of the final half an hour. You

1986
01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:39,479
Speaker 17: go down and no doubt, I mean myself included a

1987
01:38:39,479 --> 01:38:42,800
Speaker 17: lot of stomachs dropped, right. You felt sick for three

1988
01:38:42,920 --> 01:38:46,080
Speaker 17: or four minutes, but that feeling suddenly there was some

1989
01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:47,040
Speaker 17: reassurance thanks to.

1990
01:38:46,960 --> 01:38:48,719
Speaker 10: Brenner and then he got the game winner as well.

1991
01:38:48,760 --> 01:38:52,840
Speaker 17: But man, it was it was a pretty cool, pretty

1992
01:38:52,840 --> 01:38:54,120
Speaker 17: cool way for them to find.

1993
01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:54,519
Speaker 2: A way to win it.

1994
01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:57,920
Speaker 3: Now, that's what I Confidence in any sport is so key.

1995
01:38:57,920 --> 01:39:00,200
Speaker 3: And that's where I was going next. How much can

1996
01:39:00,240 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 3: you build on the confidence of not only what you

1997
01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:05,479
Speaker 3: did against Columbus, but what you have been able to

1998
01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:08,720
Speaker 3: do in a couple opportunities against Inner Miami. How much

1999
01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:10,000
Speaker 3: does confidence play into this?

2000
01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:12,439
Speaker 17: Yeah, you know, I mean, numbers have been asked this

2001
01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:15,160
Speaker 17: question a lot this week about how do you feel

2002
01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:16,320
Speaker 17: about the game, are you nervous?

2003
01:39:16,400 --> 01:39:17,439
Speaker 10: Is Miami the better team?

2004
01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:19,360
Speaker 17: All these types of things, and and look, these are

2005
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:22,240
Speaker 17: two very good teams that finished second and third tied

2006
01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:24,800
Speaker 17: on point actually for the season. But since Anti had

2007
01:39:24,840 --> 01:39:26,519
Speaker 17: more wins, so they got the two seed and therefore

2008
01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:28,240
Speaker 17: the games at home, and that should be a massive,

2009
01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:32,280
Speaker 17: massive boost because that's the Sainting's done well against Miami

2010
01:39:32,640 --> 01:39:34,880
Speaker 17: in that building as of late.

2011
01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:36,679
Speaker 10: Let's look at the most recent results.

2012
01:39:36,760 --> 01:39:40,080
Speaker 17: A three to zero win this July at TQL Stadium

2013
01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:44,080
Speaker 17: against Miami last July. Remember that's six to one beating

2014
01:39:44,120 --> 01:39:47,160
Speaker 17: they put on on Inner Miami. So that's nine to

2015
01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:49,160
Speaker 17: one in the last two trips of Inner Miami the

2016
01:39:49,160 --> 01:39:50,599
Speaker 17: Tqsam does that means could be that easy?

2017
01:39:50,640 --> 01:39:50,960
Speaker 10: Tomorrow?

2018
01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:53,720
Speaker 17: Probably not? Or Sunday probably not. I hope it is

2019
01:39:53,760 --> 01:39:56,360
Speaker 17: at the great it'd be quite the party. But even

2020
01:39:56,640 --> 01:40:00,000
Speaker 17: you know, look at the US Open Cup semifinal when

2021
01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:03,240
Speaker 17: things didn't go their way, it still was a positive

2022
01:40:03,240 --> 01:40:05,920
Speaker 17: game Presuly Cincinnati, you know, for much of it, and

2023
01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:07,880
Speaker 17: then Miami got back into it and a three to

2024
01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:10,040
Speaker 17: three and they lost in the shootout. But the game

2025
01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:11,760
Speaker 17: before that, in the regular season a one to zero win,

2026
01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:15,559
Speaker 17: and that was pretty messy. But so my point being

2027
01:40:16,160 --> 01:40:18,040
Speaker 17: is that under pat and In andef she Sintani has

2028
01:40:18,040 --> 01:40:20,479
Speaker 17: done really well against Inner Miami five one and three.

2029
01:40:21,400 --> 01:40:24,519
Speaker 17: You know, sometimes there's there's teams that you come up

2030
01:40:24,520 --> 01:40:26,200
Speaker 17: with to get better game playing against that you match

2031
01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:28,640
Speaker 17: up better against, and and she Sintati has done very

2032
01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:31,439
Speaker 17: well against Inner Miami. So I think, look, you're building

2033
01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:34,120
Speaker 17: on the confidence of those previous matchups. But yeah, you're

2034
01:40:34,120 --> 01:40:36,920
Speaker 17: building upon the confidence of the way that you beat

2035
01:40:37,040 --> 01:40:41,800
Speaker 17: Columbus in order to be in this seat. So uh yeah,

2036
01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:44,280
Speaker 17: I think confidence should be sky high, and then the

2037
01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:47,040
Speaker 17: guys should be feeding up all that enthusiasm of twenty

2038
01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:50,000
Speaker 17: five thousand folks who are gonna be screaming in their favor.

2039
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:53,519
Speaker 3: Inner Miami and dispatching Nashville in the first round saw

2040
01:40:53,680 --> 01:40:56,680
Speaker 3: Lionel Messi score five goals and add an assist, So

2041
01:40:56,680 --> 01:41:00,320
Speaker 3: he's obviously playing some of his best soccer right now. Now,

2042
01:41:00,400 --> 01:41:03,680
Speaker 3: what goes into a matchup or a game plan and

2043
01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:06,439
Speaker 3: trying to slow down a Messi or do you just say, man,

2044
01:41:06,439 --> 01:41:08,479
Speaker 3: you're not going to slow down a Messi. No one's

2045
01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:10,599
Speaker 3: been able to, But can you limit everyone around him

2046
01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:11,760
Speaker 3: as well.

2047
01:41:11,800 --> 01:41:14,160
Speaker 17: I mean, I think, yeah, you have to make sure

2048
01:41:14,160 --> 01:41:16,800
Speaker 17: that you're limiting what Lionel Messi is doing. This guy

2049
01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:20,160
Speaker 17: has forty two goals toning across all competitions this year.

2050
01:41:20,200 --> 01:41:22,719
Speaker 17: Now Miami's played in order to the amount of games,

2051
01:41:22,720 --> 01:41:24,439
Speaker 17: more than anybody else in the league.

2052
01:41:24,479 --> 01:41:25,320
Speaker 10: But it's forty two goals.

2053
01:41:25,360 --> 01:41:27,920
Speaker 17: He's five goals three says, so eight goal contributions in

2054
01:41:27,960 --> 01:41:30,280
Speaker 17: those three games. I mean it's almost three goal contributions

2055
01:41:30,280 --> 01:41:32,960
Speaker 17: a game, and coming off one of the greatest seasons

2056
01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:35,799
Speaker 17: in Major theccer history with twenty nine goals and eighteen assists.

2057
01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:40,559
Speaker 10: So look, he has just been unbelievable since he arrived

2058
01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:41,519
Speaker 10: at Miami.

2059
01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:45,120
Speaker 17: I mean seventy six goals, you know, since a arriving

2060
01:41:45,400 --> 01:41:48,200
Speaker 17: with two and a half seasons ago. So yeah, it

2061
01:41:48,240 --> 01:41:50,960
Speaker 17: hasn't even been around, you know, that long, and he's

2062
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:54,120
Speaker 17: scoring goals. It's just a ridiculous clip. So you have

2063
01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:57,200
Speaker 17: to minimize the damage that you can do. I mean,

2064
01:41:57,200 --> 01:41:59,160
Speaker 17: obviously it's talked about this week, so it's not gonna

2065
01:41:59,160 --> 01:42:01,559
Speaker 17: be the broadcaster James me because many others brought it up,

2066
01:42:01,600 --> 01:42:03,640
Speaker 17: including Roman and Miles when they did the show with

2067
01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:06,439
Speaker 17: MLS while they were with the US national team earlier

2068
01:42:06,479 --> 01:42:08,519
Speaker 17: in the week. But you know, the only Eastern Conference

2069
01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:11,000
Speaker 17: team that Messi hasn't scored against is f C Cincinnati,

2070
01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:14,920
Speaker 17: So they've come up with decent game plans against him

2071
01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:17,759
Speaker 17: in the matches when they've seen him. Uh, he's missed

2072
01:42:17,760 --> 01:42:19,920
Speaker 17: some minutes against him in the past previously as well,

2073
01:42:19,960 --> 01:42:22,479
Speaker 17: but you know, he hasn't scored against since down He

2074
01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:25,240
Speaker 17: did have some assists and that that Open Cup semifinals

2075
01:42:25,280 --> 01:42:26,479
Speaker 17: from a couple of years ago that I.

2076
01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:29,680
Speaker 10: Was talking about. But they fought a way to manage him.

2077
01:42:29,720 --> 01:42:31,960
Speaker 17: But the problem is that it all it takes is

2078
01:42:31,960 --> 01:42:34,840
Speaker 17: one play and whether that's a free kick or that's

2079
01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:37,680
Speaker 17: a ridiculous pass where he finds somebody in.

2080
01:42:37,640 --> 01:42:39,640
Speaker 10: The box and they'll hurt you.

2081
01:42:40,120 --> 01:42:43,400
Speaker 17: So Miami also has been prone to concede some goals,

2082
01:42:43,439 --> 01:42:45,800
Speaker 17: so I think there's gonna be opportunities there. He is

2083
01:42:45,800 --> 01:42:47,600
Speaker 17: that f she since and he better take advantage of

2084
01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:50,559
Speaker 17: all the opportunities in the box. You know that attacking

2085
01:42:50,600 --> 01:42:54,080
Speaker 17: trio Dencade Brenner and a Vander are gonna have to

2086
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:54,559
Speaker 17: be under game.

2087
01:42:56,280 --> 01:42:57,160
Speaker 2: He got goals.

2088
01:42:57,240 --> 01:42:59,320
Speaker 3: It's not like f C Cincinnati doesn't pose a threat

2089
01:42:59,360 --> 01:43:02,479
Speaker 3: offensively as well with that tree. Uh, you had the

2090
01:43:02,800 --> 01:43:07,240
Speaker 3: weekend between rest, recovery, a lot of preparation. You already

2091
01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:10,679
Speaker 3: knew who the opponent was gonna be. Uh, How how

2092
01:43:10,720 --> 01:43:13,240
Speaker 3: does f C Cincinnati go into Sunday just from a

2093
01:43:13,280 --> 01:43:14,960
Speaker 3: sheer availability and health point of view.

2094
01:43:15,920 --> 01:43:18,559
Speaker 17: Yeah, we just got an update this morning from Pad

2095
01:43:18,560 --> 01:43:21,000
Speaker 17: noon and then it was pretty positive. So uh, I

2096
01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:23,680
Speaker 17: felt really good about that. You know, I think everybody

2097
01:43:24,120 --> 01:43:26,760
Speaker 17: was holding their breath a little bit, especially as far

2098
01:43:26,800 --> 01:43:31,479
Speaker 17: as Andre etch Nike is concerned, and you know that

2099
01:43:31,680 --> 01:43:35,840
Speaker 17: was that was, you know, a big concern, and rightfully so,

2100
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:37,599
Speaker 17: because he was hurt while he's out with the Venezuelan

2101
01:43:37,720 --> 01:43:39,479
Speaker 17: national team, came out of the game in the first half.

2102
01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:42,519
Speaker 17: But Pat Noonon indicated in his press conference and then

2103
01:43:42,520 --> 01:43:44,960
Speaker 17: we saw it in training that that ender went out

2104
01:43:44,960 --> 01:43:47,040
Speaker 17: and trained today and and that he was good, that

2105
01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:49,240
Speaker 17: it was a scare, but that he was a full

2106
01:43:49,240 --> 01:43:50,479
Speaker 17: participant in training today.

2107
01:43:50,479 --> 01:43:52,720
Speaker 10: So did that mean he starts on Sunday? Well, time

2108
01:43:52,720 --> 01:43:53,120
Speaker 10: will tell.

2109
01:43:53,120 --> 01:43:55,360
Speaker 17: We'll see how training goes tomorrow and and what the

2110
01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:58,240
Speaker 17: coaches decide. But and there's been a really important piece

2111
01:43:58,520 --> 01:44:00,880
Speaker 17: of the puzzle. And remember now it's not a best

2112
01:44:00,880 --> 01:44:03,920
Speaker 17: of three, so it's a one game do or die,

2113
01:44:04,040 --> 01:44:05,920
Speaker 17: which means it could go one hundred and twenty minutes.

2114
01:44:06,400 --> 01:44:09,400
Speaker 17: So if you don't have an inter attion k whether

2115
01:44:09,439 --> 01:44:11,240
Speaker 17: that's in the starting role coming off the bench, you're

2116
01:44:11,240 --> 01:44:14,120
Speaker 17: losing one of your weapons, right if ender doesn't start

2117
01:44:14,479 --> 01:44:16,280
Speaker 17: and he's got available, and then you had to start

2118
01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:18,280
Speaker 17: Luco Orshana. What I means you're not bringing in Luca

2119
01:44:18,400 --> 01:44:21,439
Speaker 17: Orshana off the bench, you can do some damage, you know.

2120
01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:23,639
Speaker 10: So I feel much better about the situation.

2121
01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:27,200
Speaker 17: The only one that Pat did note today that won't

2122
01:44:27,200 --> 01:44:29,800
Speaker 17: be available was Matt viasgah Or. He didn't say he

2123
01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:31,519
Speaker 17: want to be available, but that he had a little

2124
01:44:31,520 --> 01:44:34,120
Speaker 17: bit of a minor setback in his recovery's his car

2125
01:44:34,200 --> 01:44:37,800
Speaker 17: tissue in his quad with that muscle injury that he's

2126
01:44:37,840 --> 01:44:40,040
Speaker 17: been fighting. So he didn't say that he wasn't available.

2127
01:44:40,320 --> 01:44:42,640
Speaker 17: But Matt hasn't been out with the group during the

2128
01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:45,880
Speaker 17: media portion of training this week, so it remained a

2129
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:48,320
Speaker 17: scene whether or not Matt you know, jumps in, you know,

2130
01:44:48,600 --> 01:44:51,920
Speaker 17: and what his availability looks like for the squad. But

2131
01:44:52,040 --> 01:44:54,080
Speaker 17: that's the only one at this point, and that is

2132
01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:57,479
Speaker 17: certainly great news that Pat Newton has nearly you know,

2133
01:44:57,640 --> 01:45:00,719
Speaker 17: his best team available in a really big aim to pick.

2134
01:45:00,560 --> 01:45:04,639
Speaker 3: From, Tommy quite simply put your biggest key for FC

2135
01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:08,000
Speaker 3: Cincinnati to leave t Quo Stadium on Sunday with a win.

2136
01:45:10,240 --> 01:45:12,800
Speaker 10: Oh, I mean, I think it's easy.

2137
01:45:13,080 --> 01:45:15,800
Speaker 17: You know, he gotta he can't let Messy hurt you, right,

2138
01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:18,879
Speaker 17: and Nashville wish is they had found out that solution.

2139
01:45:18,960 --> 01:45:22,120
Speaker 17: It's not as easy as just saying it, you know.

2140
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:24,519
Speaker 17: But you're gonna have to score goals at the same token.

2141
01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:26,479
Speaker 17: So uh, I don't think you really want to end

2142
01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:28,880

2182
01:46:51,800 --> 01:46:52,960
Speaker 3: weeks ago, and I told you I was going to

2183
01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:55,479

Speaker 3: nearly two thirds of the votes, uh, came in for

2186
01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:04,200
Speaker 3: fudge stripes. And I just have to ask myself, what

2187
01:47:04,280 --> 01:47:06,479
Speaker 3: kind of people are you associating with with yourself on

2188
01:47:06,560 --> 01:47:11,559

2195
01:47:28,320 --> 01:47:30,320
Speaker 17: Bakery cookie or something like that, you know, like the

2196
01:47:30,520 --> 01:47:34,720
Speaker 17: local spot unbelievable for local businesses. So you know, I'd

2197
01:47:34,760 --> 01:47:37,559
Speaker 17: prefer something like that. Yeah, I'm not gonna I'm not committal.

2198
01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:41,640

2199
01:47:41,680 --> 01:47:45,160
Speaker 3: listen in on Sunday. I can't imagine what that atmosphere

2200
01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:47,799
Speaker 3: is going to be back, be like at t Quo Stadium.

2201

Speaker 3: about the next round next week when we get together.

2204
01:47:53,840 --> 01:47:57,479
Speaker 17: Yeah, it'd be fantastic. Can't wait, brother, And yeah, let's

2205
01:47:57,560 --> 01:47:58,880
Speaker 17: let's do it and keep this thing rolling.

2206
01:47:59,320 --> 01:48:00,360
Speaker 2: Tommy, you're the best man.

2207
01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:04,880
Speaker 3: The voice of FC Cincinnati, Tom Gallader cheers, Tommy.

2208
01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:06,559
Speaker 2: There we go. There he is.

2209
01:48:06,640 --> 01:48:12,639
Speaker 3: That is Tom Gallader of FC Cincinnati. I feel like Drew,

2210
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:15,200
Speaker 3: I've thrown this out there a bunch. I feel like

2211
01:48:15,479 --> 01:48:18,680
Speaker 3: that the team that this city is most confident in

2212
01:48:18,840 --> 01:48:22,080
Speaker 3: if they're picking, is FC Cincinnati. And I don't know

2213
01:48:22,080 --> 01:48:23,639
Speaker 3: if that's a good thing or a bad thing based

2214
01:48:23,680 --> 01:48:26,240
Speaker 3: on just process of elimination and what the other teams

2215
01:48:26,240 --> 01:48:28,600
Speaker 3: are going through, but it does at least feel like

2216
01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:31,439
Speaker 3: there are people that believe FC Cincinnati, based on what

2217
01:48:31,520 --> 01:48:33,960
Speaker 3: Tommy just said, what they've done a gift inner Miami already,

2218
01:48:34,160 --> 01:48:35,920
Speaker 3: that they can pull off a win on Sunday Night.

2219
01:48:36,439 --> 01:48:39,160
Speaker 5: Well, I think they probably have the best odds on

2220
01:48:39,200 --> 01:48:40,240
Speaker 5: your favorite sportsbook.

2221
01:48:40,400 --> 01:48:41,800
Speaker 2: No, yes they do.

2222
01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:46,080
Speaker 4: They'm a pure like money line standpoint.

2223
01:48:45,680 --> 01:48:49,519
Speaker 3: Just from what Vegas views this as. So do with

2224
01:48:49,560 --> 01:48:52,120
Speaker 3: that what you will. But uh, you are caught up

2225
01:48:52,120 --> 01:48:54,360
Speaker 3: to speed, you're ready to go. I don't know, uh,

2226
01:48:54,520 --> 01:48:56,160
Speaker 3: I don't know what else we could dive into. What

2227
01:48:56,200 --> 01:48:57,720
Speaker 3: I do want to give when we get to quick

2228
01:48:57,760 --> 01:49:00,240
Speaker 3: Hits when we come back, Drew, if you are looking it,

2229
01:49:00,400 --> 01:49:03,160
Speaker 3: maybe getting on your favorite sports book and making a parlay.

2230
01:49:03,200 --> 01:49:04,840
Speaker 3: I got some numbers for you when we come back.

2231
01:49:05,640 --> 01:49:09,559
Speaker 3: If you're interested in making a Cincinnati parlay or maybe

2232
01:49:09,640 --> 01:49:13,360
Speaker 3: an anti Cincinnati parlay, we'll cover that next with Quick Hits.

2244
01:49:54,520 --> 01:49:58,160
Speaker 3: awesome week What an awesome, awesome weekend we have coming

2245
01:49:58,240 --> 01:50:00,800
Speaker 3: up here in Cincinnati. I know we've talked about it

2246
01:50:00,840 --> 01:50:04,559
Speaker 3: a lot. I did some numbers here, Drew. I threw

2247
01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:09,519
Speaker 3: some numbers together. If you're interested in getting a little crazy,

2248
01:50:09,560 --> 01:50:12,639
Speaker 3: getting a little weird over the weekend, I have numbers

2249
01:50:12,640 --> 01:50:15,640
Speaker 3: here on some parlays that you might be interested in.

2250
01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:19,600
Speaker 3: If you think that this is the weekend, Drew, that

2251
01:50:19,720 --> 01:50:23,519
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Sports turns it around and this curse is lifted

2252
01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:29,040
Speaker 3: and that everyone wins. I'm talking Bengals, I'm talking Bearcats tonight.

2253
01:50:29,080 --> 01:50:32,760
Speaker 3: I'm talking Bearcats tomorrow. I'm talking FC Cincinnati. If you

2254
01:50:32,840 --> 01:50:36,880
Speaker 3: think those four teams can all just win, you're looking

2255
01:50:36,920 --> 01:50:40,360
Speaker 3: at plus eighty five hundred odds or somewhere around there.

2256
01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:42,400
Speaker 3: Eighty five hundred. That ain't bad.

2257
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:43,160
Speaker 4: That's not bad.

2258
01:50:43,400 --> 01:50:46,559
Speaker 3: Now, if you want to get even crazier, and you're

2259
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:49,120
Speaker 3: thinking to yourself, you know what, I liked what the

2260
01:50:49,200 --> 01:50:52,439
Speaker 3: Muskies did against Old Dominion the other night. Muskies are

2261
01:50:52,439 --> 01:50:55,080
Speaker 3: getting ten and a half tonight. If you think that

2262
01:50:55,120 --> 01:50:59,479
Speaker 3: the Bengals, the Bearcats, the Bearcats, FC Cincinnati and Xavier

2263
01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:02,559
Speaker 3: can win, how about plus forty six eight hundred.

2264
01:51:03,400 --> 01:51:05,439
Speaker 4: What would a ten dollars bet net you on.

2265
01:51:05,479 --> 01:51:09,400
Speaker 3: That four thousand, eight hundred dollars or four thousand, six

2266
01:51:09,479 --> 01:51:10,160
Speaker 3: hundred dollars.

2267
01:51:10,160 --> 01:51:11,799
Speaker 4: Not a bad chunk of chains, not a bad.

2268
01:51:11,720 --> 01:51:12,280
Speaker 2: Chunk of change.

2269
01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:14,880
Speaker 3: Now, if you're on the other side and you say,

2270
01:51:15,920 --> 01:51:18,519
Speaker 3: I've seen this song and dance before, I know how

2271
01:51:18,520 --> 01:51:21,719
Speaker 3: this weekend ends, and you're gonna go opposite of Cincinnati sports,

2272
01:51:21,760 --> 01:51:24,880
Speaker 3: and you're saying, I'm not worried about the points. I

2273
01:51:24,920 --> 01:51:27,320
Speaker 3: just think they're all gonna lose. So the Patriots win

2274
01:51:27,840 --> 01:51:33,080
Speaker 3: BYU wins, Louisville wins in er Miami wins plus five

2275
01:51:33,160 --> 01:51:36,600
Speaker 3: twenty nine, that's still some nice odds. And if you

2276
01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:39,080
Speaker 3: throw Xavier in the mix, to lose to Georgia tonight

2277
01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:40,840
Speaker 3: plus six thirty four.

2278
01:51:42,080 --> 01:51:45,240
Speaker 5: Just the numbers I've crunched, what Cincinnati team do you

2279
01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:46,719
Speaker 5: have the most faith in this weekend?

2280
01:51:46,880 --> 01:51:49,200
Speaker 4: FC Cincinnati f C Cincinnati. It feels right.

2281
01:51:49,320 --> 01:51:52,559
Speaker 3: I think that's universal. Yeah, Now, if you look at

2282
01:51:52,640 --> 01:51:56,200
Speaker 3: just the numbers, the numbers would tell you that Vegas

2283
01:51:56,280 --> 01:51:58,680
Speaker 3: thinks that you see football has a chance to win

2284
01:51:58,720 --> 01:52:01,439
Speaker 3: tomorrow night. It's a two and a half point spread. Now,

2285
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:03,200
Speaker 3: usually two and a half is what you're kind of

2286
01:52:03,200 --> 01:52:05,920
Speaker 3: good for for being the home team. So I think

2287
01:52:06,280 --> 01:52:09,160
Speaker 3: people view BYU as maybe a three four five point

2288
01:52:09,400 --> 01:52:11,920
Speaker 3: favorite over Cincinnati. The number is only two and a

2289
01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:15,240
Speaker 3: half what I'm interested in, and you don't really get

2290
01:52:15,240 --> 01:52:18,200
Speaker 3: to factor this in when you're making wagers what this

2291
01:52:18,320 --> 01:52:21,840
Speaker 3: means for the program. You look on paper seven and three,

2292
01:52:21,880 --> 01:52:23,960
Speaker 3: that's a good year for the Cincinnati Bearcats. But last

2293
01:52:24,040 --> 01:52:26,080
Speaker 3: year five and two was a good start for the Bearcats,

2294
01:52:26,080 --> 01:52:28,080
Speaker 3: and they lost their last five and finished five and seven.

2295
01:52:29,520 --> 01:52:32,800
Speaker 3: Seven and one for the Bearcats. If you don't win

2296
01:52:32,880 --> 01:52:36,000
Speaker 3: tomorrow and you go to TCU losers of three straight

2297
01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:39,120
Speaker 3: to wind down your season, that's a lot of pressure

2298
01:52:39,120 --> 01:52:41,120
Speaker 3: and it takes away a lot of good will build

2299
01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:45,519
Speaker 3: up during the season for Cincinnati football. I think with

2300
01:52:45,600 --> 01:52:47,800
Speaker 3: it being nip at night, I think with it being

2301
01:52:47,920 --> 01:52:51,360
Speaker 3: Senior Night, I think there's something to that. And there

2302
01:52:51,479 --> 01:52:54,320
Speaker 3: is still an outside chance that you see as playing

2303
01:52:54,360 --> 01:52:55,840
Speaker 3: for more than just a win when it comes to

2304
01:52:55,880 --> 01:52:57,640
Speaker 3: the Big Twelve in the Big Twelve title game. So

2305
01:52:58,200 --> 01:53:01,519
Speaker 3: I do give them a legit five chance. We've talked

2306
01:53:01,560 --> 01:53:04,320
Speaker 3: about this before, we talked about it earlier. Tonight would

2307
01:53:04,320 --> 01:53:07,240
Speaker 3: be Wes Miller's marquee win. Yes, this would be the

2308
01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:09,600
Speaker 3: win that he can hang his hat On And I

2309
01:53:09,600 --> 01:53:11,439
Speaker 3: think if as a UC fan, you might be able

2310
01:53:11,479 --> 01:53:13,280
Speaker 3: to settle in a little bit to the West Miller era,

2311
01:53:13,760 --> 01:53:15,439
Speaker 3: because so much of it up to this point is

2312
01:53:15,560 --> 01:53:18,719
Speaker 3: when's the Marquie win gonna happen, Who's who's he beat?

2313
01:53:18,800 --> 01:53:21,519
Speaker 3: Up to this point, you could you could expel all

2314
01:53:21,520 --> 01:53:22,040
Speaker 3: of that tonight.

2315
01:53:22,360 --> 01:53:24,240
Speaker 4: Oh yes, no doubt, no doubt about that.

2316
01:53:24,240 --> 01:53:24,920
Speaker 2: And Xavier too.

2317
01:53:24,960 --> 01:53:27,280
Speaker 3: Like for Xavier, a lot of people are kind of

2318
01:53:27,320 --> 01:53:31,920
Speaker 3: already moving on, already turning the page. Xavier beats Georgia

2319
01:53:31,960 --> 01:53:35,599
Speaker 3: tonight as a double digit dog, then the conversation around

2320
01:53:35,680 --> 01:53:39,439
Speaker 3: Richard Patino's team changes as well. So in the Crosstown shootout, Yeah,

2321
01:53:39,479 --> 01:53:43,200
Speaker 3: the Crosstown shootout changes. Obviously, the Burrow impact on Sunday

2322
01:53:43,280 --> 01:53:46,400
Speaker 3: makes things in the Patriots game interesting. MESSI comes into town.

2323
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:48,720
Speaker 3: Regardless of anything, it's gonna be an awesome weekend for

2324
01:53:48,800 --> 01:53:49,719
Speaker 3: Cincinnati sports.

2325
01:53:49,960 --> 01:53:52,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's gonna be a tremendous and I think it's

2326
01:53:52,160 --> 01:53:55,120
Speaker 5: the best sports weekend I can remember since I've moved here,

2327
01:53:55,160 --> 01:53:56,559
Speaker 5: in a like total sense.

2328
01:53:56,880 --> 01:54:00,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think at the end of it, you

2329
01:54:00,479 --> 01:54:03,479
Speaker 3: kind of get to capitalize on what is an awesome

2330
01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:07,120
Speaker 3: showcase for Cincinnati. You got big noon kick tomorrow, Yes,

2331
01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:09,320
Speaker 3: and you've got the high school football game tonight. A

2332
01:54:09,320 --> 01:54:12,040
Speaker 3: lot of good high school football games, but anytime you're

2333
01:54:12,040 --> 01:54:13,960
Speaker 3: in the realm of twenty thousand people coming out to

2334
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:16,639
Speaker 3: watch a high school playoff game in the rain, that's

2335
01:54:16,680 --> 01:54:18,639
Speaker 3: something special as well. And I think it's a good

2336
01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:22,200
Speaker 3: weekend to highlight sports in the Queen City.

2337
01:54:22,840 --> 01:54:25,880
Speaker 5: No doubt, should be a big, big time weekend here

2338
01:54:25,920 --> 01:54:28,880
Speaker 5: in the Queen City. I'm looking forward to watching everything

2339
01:54:28,920 --> 01:54:30,680
Speaker 5: that happens the game tonight.

2340
01:54:30,960 --> 01:54:31,960
Speaker 2: And the Flyers tomorrow.

2341
01:54:32,040 --> 01:54:36,800
Speaker 5: The Flyers tomorrow against a North Carolina directional school. Yeah,

2342
01:54:36,880 --> 01:54:40,040
Speaker 5: coming off a huge win against Marquette on Wednesday night,

2343
01:54:40,160 --> 01:54:42,640
Speaker 5: so build some momentum before they head to Orlando and
