You're wondering what the hell is going on 28 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: with some of these teams. Coaches are screaming at the officials. 29 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is everything you want. Man 30 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: is f It's not perfect, but it's rock and roll 31 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: and that's what this is. 32 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 3: Dude. 33 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 4: It's Andrew Lincoln with the Q cards and he's looking 34 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 4: at Kieran Knightley going to me, you are perfect, right, 35 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 4: because that's the beauty of it, all of the imperfections, 36 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 4: all of the em and flow, the blown lead, the 37 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 4: guy dropping a punt as he's walking towards it and 38 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 4: he picks it up and then eventually he does actually 39 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 4: get it blocked. 40 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 3: But but you have that, you have big plays. 41 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 4: You had the coaching debacle, right, we argued about whether 42 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 4: you should have thrown a flag there. You also had 43 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 4: another play on the sideline ahead of a big Alabama 44 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 4: possession right off a punt where dude's just standing on 45 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 4: the sideline, the returner runs into him and he gets 46 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 4: flagged for fifteen yards. 47 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 3: Right. 48 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 4: So you've just had chaos left and right and a 49 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 4: lot of handwringing, and certainly people in Michigan. I'm sure 50 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 4: you're getting texts from all of your extended family. 51 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 3: What the hell's going on? Man? Are we getting a 52 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 3: coach tonight? 53 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: Or what who are we getting? We get? I think 54 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: Michigan's gonna be getting a coach over the course of 55 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: the next twenty four hours. And it's either gonna be 56 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: Caitlin de boor or it could be Brett Vnables if 57 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 1: Olklahoma blows this lead and loses, or it's gonna be 58 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 1: Kenny Billyhan. But they will have a coach this weekend. 59 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: This is also odd coach this weekend. 60 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, just back to the game. 61 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 4: On the third down play, Matier just threw a ball 62 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 4: off Lawson's face. Yeah, I want to say, Helm and 63 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 4: Cam of what he saw. 64 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: He had to turn his head to because the ball 65 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: was the ball was streaming right at him, like Matier, look, 66 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: and I'm glad you brought this up. Because look right now, 67 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: what we're seeing in a twenty seven to twenty four 68 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: game hasn't been a great night for ty Simpson. No, 69 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: he's had an okay night. Now. He's been victimized by 70 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: a lot of drops. There were There are at least 71 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: three or four drops that I can remember off the 72 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: top of my head, where wow, it could have been 73 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: a couple more touchdowns on the board for Alabama. But 74 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: still Alabama's offense hasn't been great. Matier has not been great. 75 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: You know, He's got a couple of touchdowns, but still 76 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: some of the passes he's thrown, it's like, wow, you 77 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: know he threw a he just threw the pick right now, 78 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: as we said that, it wound up getting just hitting 79 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: a defensive lineman in the head basically on the goal line. 80 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: We almost saw a replay last night. I was waiting 81 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: for Zach Scharbay to come and pick up the football 82 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: and just stand in the end zone with it. But 83 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: like the thing is is that this is not just 84 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: college football playoff weekend, and there are some guys with 85 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: a lot of stakes going on, and especially the quarterbacks 86 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: who in a year where yes, Bernando Mendoza wins the 87 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy. Who are the guys at the top of 88 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: the draft of quarterback like that's still out, Like that 89 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: jury is still out. You're really gonna take Fernando Mendoza 90 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: at the top or does he have to prove it 91 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: to you over the course of the playoff as well? 92 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 3: Right? 93 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: How high are you going to take some of these guys? 94 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: And right now, Simpson and Materia are not really winning 95 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: a lot. They are just you know, they're playing okay, 96 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: But neither of these guys. You're coming out of this 97 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: game saying, oh man, hey, yeah, these guys got to 98 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: move back up. Right, Simpson was a top five pick 99 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: for a while. Now he's he's fallen off me. He's 100 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: the sixth guy on a quarterback board, the guy to 101 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: watch out for, and he's got a great matchup this week. Obviously, 102 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pretend to tell you how good I 103 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: think James Madison is. But the guy that's going to 104 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: rise the most and who has the best possibility of 105 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: moving up and being the number one pick in the 106 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: draft is Dante Moore. Okay, Oregon should roll through these 107 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: next couple of games because maybe they're the second best 108 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: team in the country. Right, their only loss was to Indiana, 109 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: who's the number one team in the country. So maybe 110 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: we're kind of sleeping on Oregon a little bit. They'll 111 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: get a rematch with Indiana in the Semis. Dante Moore, 112 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, He'll be my guy that shoots 113 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: the top of NFL draft boards because this is now 114 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: a time because of what we still the lack of 115 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: huge success we've seen during the regular season from the quarterbacks. 116 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: Because look, we're coming out of this where hey, this 117 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: crop of quarterbacks is not we think it's gonna be. 118 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: And yeah they're gonna be guys taking high in the draft, 119 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: but yeah they're not what we think they're gonna be. 120 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: We're looking forward to twenty twenty seven more than anything else. 121 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: There is room for somebody to get hot in a 122 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: playoff and rise up to the top. And Dante Moore 123 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: has that chance. He's got got a chance for the 124 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: highlight plays against James Maddis the next couple of games. 125 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: He can make any throw, he's athletic, he's smart. Of 126 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: all the quarterbacks in college football now who could be 127 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: top picks in the NFL, he seems to have the 128 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: biggest toolbox that you need and serve. He has the matchups, 129 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: he has the narrative, and teams are looking right now, hey, 130 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: who's our guy that's going to step up in a 131 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: big way? Right? Trevor Lawrence shot to the top of 132 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: everybody's draft board as a freshman because he had a 133 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: big game in the National Title game when everybody else 134 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: when Clemson was absolutely loaded. And hey, here's Trevor Lawrence 135 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: hitting guys in the back of the end zone and 136 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: throwing on the run. So the door is opened for 137 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: somebody to jump up draft boards and be that number 138 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: one quarterback. And look you see Simpson and a teer tonight, 139 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: neither guy going crazy with it. Dante Moore is going 140 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: to be that guy that people are going to fall 141 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: in love with, and he's going to be someone to 142 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: rise up to the top ahead of Fernando Mendoza, and 143 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: he'll be the guy at the top everybody's draft chart 144 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: in the NFL. 145 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, and the current drive, Simpson made a big thrown 146 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 4: down the sideline. Now they had a contested one where 147 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 4: the receiver comes back through the defender. But we're looking 148 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 4: at a goal to go situation. But certainly you have 149 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 4: the opportunity based on the current board, right, because all 150 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 4: of a sudden, everybody hates every quarterback. Right, this was 151 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 4: supposed to be a great Now we're looking ahead to 152 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 4: twenty seven. Now the nil world, I think ultimately is 153 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 4: going to give us the gift that because guys can 154 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 4: make money and bounce around and make a lot of money, 155 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 4: guaranteed in that moment, in that year, that we're going 156 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 4: to get better quarterbacking and guys are gonna stick around longer. 157 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 4: So we don't have the handwringing over the handful of starts, 158 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 4: because I'm wondering if that for Dante More isn't something 159 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 4: that comes into the equation. Now, he's acquitted himself brilliantly, 160 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 4: as you said, eight point seven yard per attempt, seventy 161 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 4: three percent completion rate, can make all the throws, has 162 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 4: the big arm. Some questions about his footwork, We'll get 163 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 4: into that in the full draft evaluation. I'll certainly be 164 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 4: leaning on Coast Sell and we'll make him stay up 165 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 4: late East Coast time to join us as we get 166 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 4: ready for draft prospect processing. But he's only got seventeen 167 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 4: starts under his belt right between his time at UCLA. 168 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 4: That evidently is what made Troy Aikman mad when he left. 169 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 4: I cut a check, I get a thank you. Yeah, 170 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 4: he organ sits damn gamy as the big year this year, 171 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 4: twenty four touchdowns against five picks. But as we watch 172 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 4: every draft season, whether he goes and he clipses Mendoza, 173 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,559 Speaker 4: because right now, Mendoza had about as perfect a season 174 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 4: as you could and I don't mean that just because 175 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 4: of their record. Also, when you look at Pavia and 176 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 4: the buffoonery around the Heisman ceremony or whatever else, this 177 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 4: is a guy that's you know, hosting toy drives for kids, 178 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 4: talking about his mom, talking about his upbringing, talking about 179 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 4: persevering going to Indiana and having the huge year that 180 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 4: he did. You know, it's one of those guys he 181 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 4: checks every box that you can coming into the league. 182 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 4: When you're looking at all, right, this guy can become 183 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 4: immediately the face of our franchise and we get him 184 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 4: in the community, all of those things. But we know 185 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 4: the way the draft works is the guy that's the 186 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 4: hot guy now doesn't necessarily always get to get take 187 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 4: that to the post because we will have plenty of evaluation. Certainly, 188 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 4: the playoffs system does that for us to a degree, 189 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 4: But you got months of picking guys apart what they 190 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 4: do well, what they don't. But what we do know 191 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 4: is NFL teams get desperate, and even if there isn't 192 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 4: a quote crop a ripe crop of five guys, five 193 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 4: guys end up getting drafted. And that is the fundamental 194 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 4: truth of this draft process each and every year. 195 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: Well that's the best part for a guy like Dante 196 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: More or Fernando Mendoza, whoever, Well, Mendoza is coming out obviously, 197 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: but look, More would have his chances only seventeen starts. 198 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: I get the Troy Aikman, and I understand the whole 199 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: philosophy of if you don't have enough starts, you could 200 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: wind up not being great. I get that. But I'm 201 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: of the philosophy that when the NFL calls for you, 202 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: you go and you run that right now, Dante Moore 203 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: or whoever runs a big college football playoff, you'll rise 204 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: to the top and you'll get taken high in the 205 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: first round. Why because it's not a great year for 206 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: co So if the NFL says, hey, you're one of 207 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: the top two or three guys, you'll go in the 208 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: top seven, top eight Because teams are still gonna take quarterbacks. 209 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: Guess what, even with seventeen starts, you kind of have 210 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: to go because you don't know what could happen next year. 211 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: You're not the shiny new toy. Arch Manning will wind 212 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: up coming out. Somebody else can come out and have 213 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: a bigger year. Maybe you don't have quite the year 214 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: you had this year, and suddenly, hey, you may be 215 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: going at the end of the first round or early 216 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: in the second round. And if you're early in the 217 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: second round, you're not a franchise quarterback. You're not gonna 218 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: get all kinds of chances to succeed. When you come 219 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: out and you're drafted seventh overall or fifth overall or 220 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: third overall. Guess what, you get two or three years 221 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: to make that happen. And you know what, if that 222 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: doesn't work, you get chances with other teams to make 223 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: it happen because the other teams will think, well, maybe 224 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: you just weren't in our system. Because look, guy Baker Mayfield, 225 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold, all the guys we have seen taken high 226 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: in the first round didn't work with their initial teams. 227 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: Now are stars with other teams. So you will not 228 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: only get the chance to succeed with the team that 229 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: drafts you way more you will get a chance with 230 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: another team if it doesn't work out. Whereas if you're 231 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: just a if you're a second round pick and you 232 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: wind up coming out and say, boy, it didn't work 233 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: out for me, how long do. 234 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 3: You really have right? 235 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: I mean, look at a guy like Matt Liner, okay, 236 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: who could have come out, would have been the number 237 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: one overall pick in the draft, but decides I'm gonna 238 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: go back to usc for one more year. What happens 239 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: has kind of the same year as he does, you know, 240 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: when he wins the Heisman Trophy, but not quite the same. 241 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: His pro day was not great. Doesn't go number one, 242 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: he goes number ten. Right now, if you're the number 243 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: one overall pick in the draft, guess what, you're getting 244 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: the job right away again. All kinds of chances show 245 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: that you can do it. But Liner getting drafted number 246 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: ten didn't quite get the same amount of time to succeed. 247 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: It was a little bit easier for Arizona to turn 248 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: the page over to Kurt Warner, who came in a 249 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: lot tougher. When you have a number one overall pick 250 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: that you are trying to move on from a little 251 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: bit easier when he's the tenth overall pick. So when 252 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: the NFL calls, you go, and if this is where 253 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: Dante Moore is a big riser, you get, some teams 254 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: are gonna say, yeah, we'd like to see you play more. 255 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: What does that mean, Oh no, we're still taking you 256 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: number two overall. Hey, I'm going to the NFL. Hey, 257 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: I'll get all my starts in the NFL. Don't worry 258 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: about it, man, I'm good. I mean, this is when 259 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: you're at the best chance to succeed and you have 260 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: the best chance for prolonged success in the NFL, rather 261 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: than by waiting and saying, oh, now I have thirty 262 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: starts under my belt and I feel pretty good. Yeah, 263 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: but all these guys were better, and and and then 264 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: and you got picked early in the second round. Now 265 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: now you're on the Jets. Good luck, good luck making 266 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: that work. Sorry, Jesus will sideswipe the Jets. But that's why, 267 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: you know, it works in a favor for a guy 268 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: like More or whoever else wants come out to the NFL. 269 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 4: I mean you look at and go back to that draft. 270 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: I mean that was the draft, I intended, Oh so 271 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 4: it's your fault. Yeah, no, so I go to no, 272 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 4: so I go to that draft lineup. Was the last 273 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 4: guy out of the green room at pick ten. At 274 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 4: pick ten, because they only had a handful of guys. 275 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 4: So the rest of the night was them just doing 276 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 4: trivia questions with a bunch of former Jets and Giants player. 277 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 4: So you want to talk about all the air, meaning 278 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 4: like as soon as the Liner got picked and and 279 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 4: that was a slide, right, a slide to ten, it 280 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 4: became a all right, now what do they do for 281 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 4: the rest of the night because there's nobody else back 282 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 4: there because they didn't want anybody to be embarrassed because 283 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 4: the year before, Aaron Rodgers waited until the backers drafted 284 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 4: him deep into the into the night, right, So it's like, ah, well, nobody, 285 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 4: we don't want anybody to suffer. He was still drafted 286 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 4: in the first round, but it didn't matter, you know, 287 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 4: he was. We don't want anybody to have to go 288 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 4: through that again. So Liner gets drafted tenth, like I'm 289 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 4: just going back through. I mean, he had plenty of 290 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 4: opportunity for several years in Arizona, couldn't stay healthy, the 291 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 4: pieces around him were terrible. Uh, and it ultimately failed. 292 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 4: But fortunately for him, he was still in the the 293 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 4: era of the giant oversized novelty check all. 294 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: We got paid that fe yeah, you know, but when 295 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: you when you talk about it's a lot easier to Hey, 296 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: here's a guy in the first round that, oh, by 297 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: the way, not part of the you know, uh, who 298 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: is not the preferred quarterback of the head coach. And 299 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: I mean really, I mean, he could have wound up 300 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: having a better and a different career. He did wind 301 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: up being you know, he was there for four years, 302 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: but I said, couldn't get on the field. But again, 303 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: it's a lot harder to turn the page on a 304 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: guy number one overall than is okay, number ten. We tried, 305 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: it didn't work. Now, Kurt Warner taking the Cardinals of 306 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: the super Bowl, it's a little bit easier to put 307 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: But maybe he doesn't get the chance. Maybe or maybe 308 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: it's a different team that Matt Liners on and he's 309 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: on a he's on a team that is picking him 310 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: at the top of the draft the year before that. 311 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: It's a better system for him and he can succeed better. 312 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: He stays on the field, like I wonder if that's 313 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: something he doesn't ask himself all the time. By I 314 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: should I should I shouldn't have stayed, I should have 315 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: gone out when win the NFL wanted to me number 316 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: one overall, different situation, different team, it could have been 317 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: all I could have been still playing in the NFL. Now. 318 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, we all have a lot of things ifs and 319 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 4: buts in our career's, personal lives, etc. That you're like, Yeah, 320 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 4: you know, if I'd taken this, it's sliding doors man, 321 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 4: nobody expects the Spanish inquisition. 322 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: Very nice, very nice. 323 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 3: Yes, let's go. 324 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm going very good, very good.

Four twenty four to go 355 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, Oklahoma down ten, driving on a 356 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: big third down play mateir hits the receiver just short 357 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: of the sticks, and you're thinking, Okay, it's gonna be 358 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: a big fourth down play for Oklahoma. Instead, the ball 359 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: is popped out. It is ruled a fumble on the field. 360 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: Blaylock has it for a split second. Uh, but then 361 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: he drops it. Alabama falls on it. The call on 362 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: the field is a fumble and Alabama's football, which pretty 363 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: much would end this game. However, they're reviewing it right now, 364 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: and I gotta say watching it, it's really. 365 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 3: Tough to say that he had the ball. 366 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 6: Man. 367 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: I have to think this is good. This ball is 368 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: gonna go back to Oklahoma and it's gonna be an 369 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: incomplete pass. 370 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 6: Uh. 371 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: You see right now, Brett Vnables is running around telling 372 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: everbody it's gonna be fourth out. 373 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 3: Gotta play call, it's gonna be fourth out. 374 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 4: I gotta be frantic. Steve Disager in the news at 375 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 4: the news desk, and he is giving me the full 376 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 4: full arm extension like he's got wings for an incompletion. 377 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: Uh. So here we go. It is now the officials 378 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: looked at it. Yeah, pretty easy call here. It's an 379 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: incomplete pass. So the game in Oklahoma season are riding 380 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: on this play, right now again fourth and five. They 381 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: had a seventeen to nothing lead over Alabama. Then a 382 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: block kick, a pick six, all of a sudden, the 383 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: game is tied. Alabama comes out in the third quarter 384 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: like a house of fire. Oklahoma trying to stand up, 385 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: but Alabama has just been a little bit too much 386 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: everywhere for them. And with Oklahoma chasing ten points with 387 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes left to go, they need 388 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: the touchdown. They need to get the ball back. They 389 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: get the big fourth down pass. Gibson catches one in 390 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 1: the middle of the field. My tier keeps the play alive, 391 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: so it's a big first down for Oklahoma, and now 392 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: they are inside the Alabama twenty yard or inside the 393 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 1: Alabama thirty yard line again facing a ten point deficit, 394 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: but still now things a little bit more tenable for Oklahoma. 395 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: Here in the last few minutes. 396 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 4: I'm in course of the game. Thirty two carries just 397 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 4: fifty eight yards on the ground. I had to pull 398 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 4: this back up. I'm like putting my this on, taking 399 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 4: him off from like my seeing the graphic that they're 400 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 4: showing me properly for Matier before that big completion, eighteen 401 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 4: carries eighteen yards. We could have that rushing touchdown early, 402 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 4: but they've been unable when they had the seventeen point lead, 403 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 4: they were unable to run the ball effectively at all. 404 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 4: And he's scrambling and gets taken down at the line 405 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 4: of scrimmage once again. So final minutes here, absolute tension 406 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 4: and chaos. 407 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: Thirty two carries for now thirty three carries for fifty 408 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 1: five yards in a touchdown. I think that was like 409 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: Tim high Tower's line with Washington when he had that big, 410 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: like half a season run. Is a big fantasy guy 411 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: like twelve years ago. Oh but look at Tim Mier's 412 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: running for eighty yards a week in a touchdown. Yeah, 413 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 1: twenty eight carries. He's not gonna have to shop much longer. 414 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 4: Hey, man, that's like guys scoring forty points in again, 415 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 4: how many shots he takes? 416 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: Sixty? 417 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: John Matteer Now nineteen carries for fifteen yards. 418 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 3: Heye, actually I just got average down. 419 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, hey, eighteen for eighteen Just another 420 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: eighty two carries. He's one hundred yard rusher, No ninety 421 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: more than that. Night em to run the ball about 422 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty times to get one hundred yards. 423 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 3: He's behind the sticks. 424 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: Now, I tell you nineteen for fifteen and a touchdown. 425 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 4: What a wild game though, I mean in fact that 426 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 4: we got fifty eight points. They're moving the ball with 427 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 4: some chunk plays here and material extending, and there have 428 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 4: been moments where both he and Simpson, you're like, all right, 429 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 4: that's everything you thought of, you know, when you start 430 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 4: thinking about pro prospects, and then you've seen some other 431 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 4: decisions Simpson taking some sacks, Materier running around in a 432 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 4: circle only to get tackled at the line of scrimmage 433 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 4: or three yards behind it as he was out of 434 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 4: his last carry, and you're like, okay, all that goodwill 435 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:44,959 Speaker 4: gets taken out the window. 436 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is one.

Well, it was an easy kick. 452 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: This wasn't anything that was more than I think it 453 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: was a thirty seven yard kick and he just pushed 454 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: it off to the left. It looked like it just 455 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: hooked through.

But maybe we were We 474 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: were right in the middle, and that's what it was. 475 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 4: Tell you what, you know what you know camera angles, 476 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 4: you know like backwards passes on two point conversions and 477 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 4: stuff you just never know. 478 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: So again, now it looks like this is gonna be 479 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: it for Oklahoma, and uh he's on the sideline again. 480 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 1: I'm watching it again, and it looks like the ball 481 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: now it looks like it went right over the top. 482 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: Now I see this angle that looks like went right 483 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: over the top. And now we're seeing the far away 484 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 1: angle and it looks like it's yeah, you know what, 485 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: that's one of those well I hate to say this 486 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: because Oklahoma fans are gonna hate this, but that's one 487 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 1: of those calls where if they had called it good, 488 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: I would say, okay, boy, he barely got it, or 489 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: they called it no good. Yeah, it looks like he 490 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: missed it like that. That's how I know I found 491 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: weird saying that.

But they could have 494 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: called that either way. I really think they could have 495 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: called it either way. 496 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 4: My carbon, I will say this, You went straight Voldemort 497 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 4: right there, spoken like a true politician. 498 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: Yes, Pa, Yes, I believe you'll be well useful.

But really, I think 501 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: they could have called that field goal either way. I 502 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: really I if I don't think you, I don't think 503 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: you would have had a disagreement either way on it 504 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: good or no good. 505 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 4: See Raybi, we get a renewed In addition to let's 506 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 4: expand the playoffs, we also go to the field goal box, 507 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 4: so we we no longer have the open you know, 508 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 4: open wishbone kind of look to it. No, no, no, 509 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 4: we put it in and you got to kick it 510 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: in a box, man. 511 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: So we got a lot to break down from this game. 512 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: But it looks like it's gonna be Alabama. But I 513 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: think Oklahoma's gonna wind up getting the football back. Oklahoma 514 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: facing a third and fourteen right now, getting down to 515 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 1: the two minute warning. Uh, they're gonna have to run 516 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: the play before the warning. So it's gonna screw Oklahoma 517 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: little bit. They're not gonna get that time out, but 518 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: it like they are going to get the football back. 519 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: They throw a quick out to Williams. He gains about 520 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: six yards. We are at the two minute warning and 521 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: they'll be punting it back to Oklahoma, who are gonna 522 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: have a ragtag drive down to try to get a 523 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: touchdown field goal on sidekick and tie this game. 524 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 4: Can I just go I'm gonna be old man here 525 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 4: on you first? Sure and here Smith. We just chronicled 526 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 4: the Oklahoma rushing attack of their thirty eight carries or 527 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 4: thirty three carries for fifty five yards, Alabama twenty three 528 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 4: for thirty two. Now I've seen, you know, a couple 529 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 4: of runs and some big plays. You know, when he'll 530 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 4: goes into the end zone, I'm thinking of old T TJ. 531 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 4: Yeldon getting in there. I don't know why that that's 532 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 4: deep Yeldon. Yeah, I fixating former Jaguar. I must have 533 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 4: been sorting some cards income across him in an Alabama uniform. 534 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 4: But they've got twenty three carries for thirty two yards 535 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 4: on the game. Yeah, this is not at least both 536 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 4: of these teams. What the hell happened? Embarrassment Street Legacy, 537 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 4: run the damn ball down their droughts. 538 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: The total is fifty five carries for eighty seven yards. 539 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: That's both of these teams tonight. Fifty five carries for 540 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: eighty seven yards. 541 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 3: Fifteen five wasted plays. 542 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: Man, I'll tell you look, it's it's a real shock 543 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: to see this game go this way after Oklahoma had 544 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: the big seventeen to nothing lead again. Steve Desager will 545 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: have more on this and what's trending coming up in 546 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: a few minutes. We are at the two minute warning, 547 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: and unless Oklahoma gets a miracle comeback, Alabama's moving on 548 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: and Michigan's gonna have to move on in their head 549 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: coaching search. So looking ahead to some of the other 550 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: big games this weekend in the NFL, we have a 551 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: slew of big games. Last hour, we gave you our 552 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: picks for the Chargers and the Cowboys. Also gave you 553 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 1: Jaguars and the Broncos, the Packers and the Bears. Everybody's 554 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 1: favorite game tomorrow. And look, I've been your Chicago whisperer 555 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: all year long. Right, I've told you it's the good 556 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: times when everybody else is nervous, and I know his 557 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: fans waiting for the other shoot to drop. I'm ready 558 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: to tell you this. They're gonna win tomorrow. They're gonna 559 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: win the NFC North. They're gonna be the number two 560 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: seed in the playoffs. Right. That that's what's gonna happen. 561 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 1: That this is how it's gonna go for the Bears. 562 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: Everything is lining up for that big win over Cleveland's defense, 563 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 1: right last week, not their offense, big win over their defense. 564 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 1: And what we found out is what we sort of 565 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: expected all along in that, Hey, when does the Bears 566 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: offense look the best? And it's sometimes it's not about 567 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: Caleb Blaiem. It's not about the running attack. And you've 568 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: seen this now over the last couple of years. When 569 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: Dj Moore gets involved and gets the football, it is 570 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: a different offense in Chicago. He didn't get the ball 571 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, one one reception for minus four yards. 572 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 1: You knew they were gonna try to get him the ball. 573 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: He's still a great game breaker, and he got the 574 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,120 Speaker 1: ball last week, big win. He's gonna be the only 575 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: guy him in lovel and the only guy's getting the 576 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: ball tomorrow because the dunesa is a lot of injury 577 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: bs out. But this is what makes that offense go. 578 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: When he gets the ball, the offense revs it up. 579 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: It's that silky look at the Bears game production. Green 580 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: Bay is still gonna be reeling defensively. You're not worried 581 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: about Micah Parsons coming from off the side, you know you. 582 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: Bo Callahan's not gotta worry about Vante Matt coming off 583 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 1: the edge. He's gonna be able to play free and 584 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: not have to worry about it Tomorrow. Yeah, I'm still 585 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: bullish on the Packers overall, but tomorrow, this is the 586 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: Bears day. They should have won two weeks ago. They 587 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: get the win tomorrow, Big day from DJ Moore. They 588 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: know they got to get him the football. Everything is 589 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: coming up Bears. They win, They'll win the North, number 590 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: two seed in the NFC. Mike Carmon, the good times 591 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: are here for you. 592 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 6: Well. 593 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 4: I do like the fact that we did get a 594 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 4: bo Callahan reference in because I tried to feed you 595 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 4: that Chris Paul Halloween. 596 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 3: Story earlier in the week. 597 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 4: We're only three of his teammates allegedly showed up, and 598 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 4: everybody else more or less said blank this and that guy, 599 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 4: I'm not going. So that's still backdrop if you want 600 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 4: to go back into the chaos that is the Clippers. 601 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: But yeah, when we look at. 602 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 4: DJ Moore, the over under is four receptions for him 603 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 4: as we look at a depleted receiving court. Look, Caleb 604 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 4: Williams can make every throw. He can also scare you 605 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 4: by trying to make every throw along the way, doesn't 606 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 4: doesn't have the interceptions, but certainly when he misses, nobody's 607 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 4: getting it. So Dj Moore has to be involved here. 608 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 4: You'll see more of Loveland, who's one of your top 609 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 4: tight ends over the last six seven weeks. And the 610 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 4: run game has been fantastic. Remember they traded away their 611 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 4: run stuffer and Michael Parsons is no longer There a 612 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 4: lot of guys on the injury reporters. We talked about 613 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 4: with Jason Cole question of how many of those are 614 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 4: legit and Rob Damofski, who's covered the team forever. He 615 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 4: was on the score in Chicago earlier talking about where 616 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 4: they are, and more of these guys are are more 617 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 4: injured than perhaps you know the gamesmanship of it all. 618 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 4: Jacobs is getting shots to try to have his knee right. 619 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 4: The Whay Watson most likely isn't going to be available, 620 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 4: But you do have Reed, who's picked up ten catches 621 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 4: the last two weeks. But all of that to say, 622 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 4: the opportunistic Bears defense, the run game, what the enemy 623 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 4: and Ben Johnson to put together are too much and 624 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 4: they get a big win at home minus two for 625 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 4: the Bears. 626 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 3: JO Saturday Night Special. 627 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: Bears Bears, Bears, Bears, Everything coming up Bears.

I know a lot of 632 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 4: family and friends are taking over our favorite pub there 633 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 4: in Chicago. I wish I could be there with him, 634 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 4: because it'll be a glorious celebration of bearsdom, including you know, 635 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 4: the bottle service with the tapwater, because that's just the 636 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 4: way we do things. 637 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: Time out to find out what's trending in the wide 638 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: world of sports. So someone who's been called the Ben 639 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: Johnson of Fox Sports Radio because when he gets really excited. 640 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: He'll take off his shirt and start yelling. It's Steve 641 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: this good better best. 642 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,479 Speaker 7: You gotta wait for the cameras to enter the locker room. First. 643 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 7: Of course, we got Alabama winning here. 644 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 6: For those who saw the first quarter and a half 645 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 6: at this opener of the college football playoff, this is 646 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 6: a shock. We've got just over a minute to goo. 647 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 6: Bama is up thirty four to twenty four, even though 648 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 6: the Sooners led seventeen to nothing early in the second quarter. 649 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: Oh, usually just missed again, Sandel just missed it. He 650 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: didn't even make it to the goal post. Oh my sorry, 651 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: Steve O. I can't he didn't even make it. It didn't 652 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: even travel fifty one yards. Oh my goodness. So he 653 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: missed the. 654 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 6: Fifty one yarders short of the crossbar. What you referenced earlier, 655 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 6: the missfield goal from thirty six, just missed to the 656 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 6: left of the upright And so yeah, this one's officially over. 657 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 6: It's a ten point Bama lead. They'll get the ball 658 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 6: with just over a minute to go. The yardage advantage 659 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 6: for the Sooners early was one eighty one to twelve. 660 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 6: But it's the other team that's going to be advancing 661 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 6: Alabama will be in the Rose Bowl quarterfinal against number 662 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 6: one Indiana. Boy, what a what a what a blown lead? 663 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 6: Let's put it kindly. Has this ever happened in a 664 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 6: college football playoff game? You ask, Well, actually, only one 665 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 6: team has overcome a deficit of seventeen points to win 666 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 6: a CFP playoff game, and that was Georgia against Oklahoma 667 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 6: in the Rose Bowl after the twenty seventeen season, when 668 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 6: Sooners blew a big lead there and lost in overtime 669 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 6: to the Georgia Bulldogs. 670 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 4: Is that a note you've already just put aside for 671 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 4: Sunday night? I mean, yeah, if Christy and delivered a plank, yeah, feeling. 672 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 6: He's probably passing out copies of that right now before 673 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 6: playing from Oklahoma co hosts on Sunday Night. As far 674 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 6: as the yardage that you mentioned, and it's worth mentioning, 675 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 6: my goodness, the rushing totals are microscopic for each team 676 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 6: in college stats, they include the sacks as part of 677 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 6: your rushing total. And there have been nine total sacks 678 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 6: in this game and fifteen tackles for loss totals. So 679 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 6: let's put it this way. Alabama did have one thirty 680 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 6: yard gain. Aside from that, they're gonna win this contest 681 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 6: with twenty four carries and about thirty what thirty two 682 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 6: yards minus the thirty so about two yards rushing aside 683 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 6: from that one cap. 684 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: I like that Matthew did the thirty two yards minus 685 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: the thirty. 686 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 6: Okay, well, I'm trying to see you if they're gonna 687 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 6: include this last kneel down as part of the because 688 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 6: the I was gonna say, the fans have just rushed, 689 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 6: no wrong stadium. 690 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 7: The players have just come on. 691 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 6: The field and silently the fans are exiting in Norman, Oklahoma. 692 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 7: What a crushing end to a season. 693 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: The fans tried to rush on the field, they only 694 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: got one yard and got stopped, just like it all. 695 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 6: Next question is Alabama gonna get to the Oklahoma logo 696 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 6: at the center and have some fun dancing upon it, 697 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 6: because Oklahoma did win at Alabama about a month ago 698 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 6: twenty three to twenty one, and that was not forgotten 699 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 6: by the Alabama folks.

College kickers cha cha chaw sandel is the 751 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: grows a winner. 752 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he. 753 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,479 Speaker 1: Misses two field goals in the final four minutes, won 754 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: a gimme from thirty six yards and doesn't even reach 755 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: the crossbar on a fifty one yard er. 756 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:55,240 Speaker 3: You know, your heart breaks. 757 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: You see him at his parents. I believe he was, 758 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: you know, consoling him, hugging him after, you know, like 759 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: like Pete few Tex says, college kickers, man, it's not 760 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 1: like the NFL. It's not like where, hey this guy 761 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: from fifty one yards. Yeah, we are absolutely rolling through this. 762 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: So it really is difficult. But the one thing that 763 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 1: gets me on this mic is that you know the 764 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: rule for the kick, like the thirty six yard or 765 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: that they could have ruled good or no good. Yeah, 766 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: if it's over the crossbar, if it's a high, if 767 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: it's higher than the goalpost, it's not reviewable. And I'm like, Okay, 768 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: I get that, but I don't know that we need 769 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,399 Speaker 1: a review when it's not over the Crossbibably, I think 770 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 1: that's pretty easy to do. Yeah, No, it's not over 771 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: the cross I don't think you need a review at 772 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: that point. This is where you need the review for. 773 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: If it's over the cry. I think that's kind of 774 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 1: where the review. 775 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 4: So we talk about angles right when you're kicking from 776 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 4: you know, witch hash Mark and lining up here. He's 777 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 4: a lefty, so in terms of the ball and how 778 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 4: it knuckles and whatever. But it's over the top and 779 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 4: it's not reviewable, and I don't know that you're coming 780 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 4: to any conclusive review of it regardless, right, I mean, 781 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 4: how much of the it's like an out of bounds 782 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 4: play or a ball going off a pitch in a 783 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 4: soccer match. Well, it's kind of supposed to be the 784 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 4: whole ball, right, same thing here. Does it have to 785 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 4: be the whole ball is inside or over the crossbar? 786 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 4: If any part of it's out, like what are we doing? 787 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 4: Does it have to be fully out? So that type 788 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 4: of discussion, you know, for the year, just to kind 789 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 4: of give it a little bit of breadth for those 790 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 4: who missed, you know, college kickers twenty three of twenty 791 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 4: four on the year, seven of seven from fifty plus 792 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 4: eight of nine from forty to forty nine. 793 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: I realized it. It's an unbelievable you thought, Okay, who 794 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: can you rely on the grows of winners going to 795 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 1: get something? But that thirty six yard I mean, that 796 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: was just absolutely stunning. Now, the other part of it 797 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: is this, and I really I don't know that I've 798 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 1: ever seen this in any football game I've ever watched, 799 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 1: even games in the snow and the mud when no 800 00:38:55,520 --> 00:39:00,439 Speaker 1: one can do anything. Alabama and Oklahoma they combined for 801 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: fifty eight rushes for eighty three yards on the game. 802 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 1: That's not that's not even one and a half yards. 803 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: Pret it's like one and one in the one six 804 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: the yards per carry, all right, I don't need to 805 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:14,399 Speaker 1: do the math on it. It's less than one and. 806 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 4: A half fastye said, I mean remember that you know 807 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 4: astrosk out the nine sacks. 808 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean I have. 809 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: Never seen anything like that, where fifty eight rushes eighty 810 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: three yards. I mean, really, that's it was such a 811 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: such a slog watching these teams try to run the 812 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: football and you had one. I mean, the longest rush 813 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: for Oklahoma was six yards. You had a thirty yard 814 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 1: rush from Daniel Hill. If you take that out, it's 815 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, fifty seven carries for like fifty 816 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 1: five yards. I mean, that's what it is. 817 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's pretty insane. Right. 818 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 4: So he finishes with nine carries forty three yards in 819 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 4: a score. Thirty is his long as a team. Twenty 820 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 4: five carries, twenty eight yards and a touchdown. You can 821 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 4: do the math. I mean that's and the sacks it 822 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 4: comes into a negative category. 823 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, really that that's just that. That's 824 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: absolutely insane when you think about that. I've never seen 825 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:15,320 Speaker 1: anything like that before. 826 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 3: Succeed and proceed, Brother. 827 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: Alabama succeeds, They proceed, They're on to the next round. 828 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 1: What to make of their victory?
