Um, please get your comments in. 106 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,799 Speaker 1: I love using counter arguments against the twelve team playoff 107 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: as a rhetorical launching point for proving why I think 108 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: those points are ridiculous. And then, um, after that, we'll 109 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: go down the Power five championship games. It's championship week. 110 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: We are here, the the final weekend of the college 111 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:03,239 Speaker 1: football regular season. Alright, Aaron, the It was big news 112 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: yesterday as the Rose Bowl finally capitulated, and although the 113 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: details still have to be worked out, it looks like 114 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: college football will be getting a twelve team playoff in 115 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: twenty four. Um. I think this is huge because, like 116 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: we talked about yesterday, I think this year's playoffs set 117 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: up in particular kind of shows the absurdity of the 118 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: current system. Right that you have four teams that are 119 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: already in and are being challenged with conference championship games 120 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: that arguably one maybe two of them is having to 121 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: put that status at risk. Well, others are just getting 122 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: to sit at home and not do anything and maybe 123 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: stand to benefit off of not doing anything and not 124 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: accomplishing the same things these other teams did in the 125 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: regular season. We talked about how stupid that is. Well, 126 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: it looks like you won't have to do it again, Aaron, 127 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: but one more year because now in a twelve team playoff, 128 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: let's go do Let's go And I love what the 129 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: just reading articles about this right now. You know the 130 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: Rose Bowl. Love the Rose Bowl. It's the granddaddy of 131 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: mall that. The stadium is incredible, the traditions incredible, it 132 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: is the game. But you know, they they're the ones 133 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: kind of been holding things up a little bit right now. 134 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: They wanted special treatment to kind of go along with 135 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: the plan, and essentially College football said, Uh, either you're 136 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: in or you're out in or yeah, we ain't gonna 137 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: make any special recommend you know, special circumstances for you 138 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: coming in. We will obviously give you the stage, will 139 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: make the game great, just like we make every other 140 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: game that we're going to put on in the playoffs 141 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: leading up to the National Championship a a badass event. 142 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: So they jumped on board. Thank goodness. Now we can 143 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: just focus on getting ready for and and to me, 144 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: if I'm if I'm a if I'm a team that's 145 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: not Georgia or Alabama or Ohio State, I am jumping 146 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: up for joy right now. And I'm calling every single 147 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: recruits saying, hey, listen, you're you're a freshman or software year, 148 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: whatever you're coming out, if you come to our school, 149 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 1: you can compete for a championship. You don't not in California, 150 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: you don't need to go to Alabama, you don't need 151 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: to go to the East Coast. You can stay right home. 152 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: In two years, we're gonna have a chance to compete 153 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: for a championship every single year. I think the parody 154 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: and in college football is only to get better. We're 155 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: seeing it this year right now, and hell yeah, let's 156 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: go be the I wish it was this year. I 157 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: wish it was this year. But no, I mean, look, 158 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: so it's it's it's kind of an odd conversation because 159 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: to me, it feels so obviously exciting that like I 160 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: almost need comments that disagree to be able to show 161 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: why I'm so excited about Like Rob d and the 162 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: chat says, twelve team playoff is gonna take meaning out 163 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: a big time regular season games. Um, but add value 164 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: to eight verse thirteen matchups as a trade off? Isn't 165 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: worth it? I am, Oh, but whatever it's happening. Well, 166 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: here's my deal, Rob. You hit it right there. You 167 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: say it don't take menia out of the big time 168 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: regular season games. I I don't agree. I think it 169 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: adds value to way more regular season games. Right. A 170 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, you had Utah and Oregon. Because 171 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: of the current playoffs set up, we did not care 172 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: about that game nearly as much because both had already 173 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: misstepped enough where they were eliminated. If if if we 174 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: had the expanded playoff, that game would have been a 175 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: game that could have like almost been like a pseudo 176 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: playoff game. Like let's say that uh Texas A and 177 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: m Agntell shoot last week. Let's say the Texas A 178 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: and M was also like uh nine and two entering 179 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: the game or like eight and three. Right, You're going 180 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: to have more games in the regular season that end 181 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: up mattering, and you can still say the big time 182 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: games matter because, as I imagine that we will see 183 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: in a twelve team playoff, getting a bye is massive. 184 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: Think about how exciting it is to get a bye 185 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: week during a football season. Like people get angry about 186 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: when they don't like where they're by falls and it 187 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: falls too early in the season. As a player, the 188 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: bye week is an incredible opportunity to rest your body, 189 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: to kind of reset for what comes next. So no, 190 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 1: there's still rewards to be had for winning those one 191 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: five matchups. But yeah, I mean, to me, this just 192 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: may I think the biggest every game more exciting. Yeah, 193 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: I think what everyone I think, the big the big gripe. 194 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: I keep hearing about these, you know, the railer season 195 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: games not meaning as much. Everyone points to Ohio State, 196 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,599 Speaker 1: Michigan that that that that. To me, that's like the 197 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: number one argument right now. People say, well that game 198 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: last week wouldn't have mattered anything because one team can say, oh, 199 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: well whatever, we're in the playoffs. We're not. We're really 200 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: at the fight. Especially if you get to the point where, uh, 201 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: these conferences do go divisionalists similar to what the pack 202 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: towel does, the Big Towel does. SEC is gonna get 203 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: to the point and I would think the Big Ten 204 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: when they do add usc in U, C, l A, 205 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: and possibly a couple more. They as well go division lists. 206 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: So I think the worry is okay, those seems race 207 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: each other, win or lose, doesn't matter. You're still probably 208 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: gonna be in even if you guys play each other 209 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: in the converschamtionship game. Your answer, the game doesn't matter. 210 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: Disagree in that, and I'll take it a different angle here, 211 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: t Bob, that's your rival. That is the biggest game 212 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: on your calendar each and every year. It means a 213 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: lot to the players, it means a lot of the 214 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: fan basis. You talk about it for thrinner in sixty 215 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: or four days out of the year, thuring in sixty days, 216 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: including the day, Like you're not gonna show up on 217 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: a Saturday. If I'm an Ohio State player and say, 218 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 1: you know what, We're gonna play Michigan today. But we're 219 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,599 Speaker 1: still in the playoffs. So I think I would not 220 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: just coast. I think we're just gonna take the day off. 221 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna relax, like I could care less 222 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: if we win this game. Like, do fans really think 223 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: a player is just going to take a day off 224 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,719 Speaker 1: against their biggest rival because they know they're going to 225 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: be in the playoffs. No, they're not. These are the 226 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: well play the game, you love the game, you go 227 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: out there and compete. So I don't think it's gonna 228 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: diminish it. I think it's only gonna help more and 229 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: more games down the line. It's gonna help this weekend too. 230 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 1: I mean, look at this weekend, there's one game that 231 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: really matters, and that's it. What about if Clemson North 232 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: Carolina actually meant something and then the winner that game 233 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: could get into the playoffs. What if LSU had a 234 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: legitimate chance to make it into the playoffs and saying 235 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: with Kansas State and they would get a by yes? 236 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Which interesting or intriguing? Way more interesting? Um? Okay? So 237 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: so I would say this, Hey, if you tell me 238 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: that Michigan house state wouldn't mean anything, I mean I 239 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: completely disagree. What it means is that Michigan will likely 240 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: get that by a Michigan team who's best player in 241 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: Blake Corehum needs that by. His status for this weekend 242 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: is still up in the air as he's recovering from 243 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: that knee injury. Well guess what he would now get 244 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: a buy Whereas Ohio State would have to play host 245 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: to a very good and very hot Washington team, and 246 00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: sure Ohio State likely wins that game, but I think 247 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: that's a distinct advantage for Michigan to be able to 248 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: sit at home. Well, Ohio State has to go out 249 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: and challenge themselves. Uh in that manner. Uh, if you're 250 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: worried about blowouts, I think that this creates more good 251 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 1: playoff games because yeah, you will still have Georgia blowing 252 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: teams out. But but that's not really uh criticism of anything, 253 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: because who wouldn't Georgia blowout at this point? Right, I 254 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: will say that you will get some incredible games with 255 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: Ohio State playing host to Washington, Alabama playing host to 256 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: Utah Tennessee, playing host to Kansas State, Penn State, Clemson. 257 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: Then you get the round after that, Like, yes, you 258 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: will get a ton of very good football games. And 259 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: how about this, at the end of the day, Um, 260 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: you objectively get the best champion and and and and 261 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: and I'm using objective very purposefully there, right, because we 262 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: have taken out subjectivity. He said, Oh, well, t bop 263 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 1: the the six at large bids. Those are subjective, And 264 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying, and um, that is fair, 265 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: but it's almost like a law of diminishing returns thing right. 266 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: When only two teams make it, like in the BCS, 267 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: only two teams make it, people get really piste off 268 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: if it feels like you made the wrong choice and 269 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: didn't put in the right two teams were very hard 270 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: to agree on those right two teams. When four teams 271 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: make it, uh, people still get really upset if you 272 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: can't get that four team right. Or maybe there's like 273 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: a fifth team that is to be in there, but 274 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: it's a little less So when you get down two 275 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: number twelve, Um, sure will Florida State be mad that 276 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: they're not in there. They're thirteen at nine and three 277 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: in Washington's twelve attendant two or whatever. Like, sure Florida 278 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: State fans be mad and they craft arguments say well, 279 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: this is why we should be in blah blah. But 280 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: it's never going to get that kind of national blowback 281 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, you will have 282 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: had the twelve best teams in college football have to 283 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: solve it on the actual field, right, which that's what 284 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: this has always been about, is getting to a place 285 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: where the football is not solved by conferences or rooms 286 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: or subjectivity or opinion, but solving it with actual football, 287 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: because again, this entire year has been a year that 288 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: has just reinforced and shown us that we don't always 289 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: know what's going to happen. Ohio State was a big 290 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: favorite over Michigan. Pretty much everybody thought they were going 291 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: to roll um in the more extreme cases what South 292 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: Carolina randomly did the last two weeks. Uh eighteen and 293 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: twenty two year olds are weird. They're young, they're full 294 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: of variables. Things can go awry, and so I love 295 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: and the most important thing to keep side of is 296 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: that now you will get unobjectively more satisfying champion when 297 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: this will be all said and done. What listen? Listen. 298 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: It also engages the entire country. You know what what 299 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: if people bitched about for for the existence of this 300 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: four teen playoffs, it's it's usually centered right in the southeast. 301 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: That's it. It's Clemson, it's Alabamas, George are you're throwing 302 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: on the house state there in a little bit and 303 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: the movement was, but it's all focused on the Southeast. 304 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: Like half the country doesn't, you know, doesn't watch football 305 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: for for January unless it's the NFL, Like they're not 306 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: engaged with college football. So I think for the health 307 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: of the game to bringing more eyeballs and too bringing 308 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: more excitement, to bringing more dollars, to bringing more competitive games, 309 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: to keeping kids that want to stay on the West 310 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: Coast because those programs are getting better. This was needed 311 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: now as a as a as a fan of U. 312 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: S l A or USC or Oregon or Washington. I'm 313 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: just focused on the West Coast. Here you have something 314 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: to actually cheer for and pay attention to, and you 315 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,719 Speaker 1: get to watch snaps in December and January. I mean, 316 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: I feel bad for our people in the West Coast. 317 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: They probably stop watching snaps when when when the all 318 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: the West Coast teams are done. Now, all of a sudden, 319 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: they get to enjoy SNAPS for an extra month. Like, 320 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: how awesome is that, t Bob? They get one more 321 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: month of you and I pumping up the Trojan Boys, 322 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: pumping up the Bruins. That's good stuff. I'm all for it. 323 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: Give the people. No, I mean, I I agree, I 324 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: agree like that is honestly the best argument that I've 325 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: heard from the twelve team playoff is uh, more people 326 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: listening to this podcast. That is very very well said, Aaron. 327 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: Do you think that conference championship games have to go 328 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,719 Speaker 1: or or conference championship games even more interesting because they 329 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: kind of represent an outside path in right, Like what 330 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: if Perdue against all odds, beats Michigan this weekend and 331 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,360 Speaker 1: then they would find themselves in UH in the playoff, 332 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: and then it would be Ohio State in Michigan taking 333 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: up two of the six at large bids UH. It's 334 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: that's crazy to me, but I think that's when you 335 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: need to get away too from I think that the 336 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: way to get around that, and I think it's gonna 337 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 1: happen to I brought it up a little bit ago, 338 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: is just getting rid of the divisions withinside the conference. 339 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: That way, we're not having to worry about say a 340 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: Purdue getting in, were don't have to worry about a 341 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: three loss l s U possibly getting in. Sorry t Bob, 342 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: but you put two of the better teams in from 343 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: the conference to play in their conference championship. That way 344 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: that the winner does deserve to get in because of 345 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: the body of work that they put in during the season. 346 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: So I think that's how you avoid that craziness. Love now, dude, 347 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: I think Aidan O'Connell and company. I I think they 348 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: put in a hell of a body of work to 349 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: win the Big Tin West there and get themselves to 350 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: this conference championship if they can beat a Michigan team 351 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 1: that's undefeated and looks great, I don't know that I 352 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: would argue they don't deserve to be in the twelve 353 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: team playoff. Okay, that deserve to have the opportunity to 354 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: beat Michigan, is what I'm saying. Uh, And look, I 355 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,959 Speaker 1: guess my overall point is is that, UM, I do 356 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: think that there's a lot of details to still figure 357 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 1: out with this, right Uh? Does this eventually change the 358 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: entire fabric of the college football schedule? Does Week zero 359 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: become Week one? Do you get rid of cupcap games? 360 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: You go to a shorter but more impactful uh, college 361 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: football schedule featuring all Power five on Power five? UM? 362 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: I I think that eventually these sort of questions will 363 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: be answered and we'll see the kind of ripple effects 364 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: of all of this. But the bottom line is that 365 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: this means that not only during the regular season are 366 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: you gonna have more premier matchups that will either take 367 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: away or give hope for making that postseason, but then 368 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: you'll also get way more badass super important postseason matchups 369 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: and if you love college football, it just seems like 370 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: a massive win for everybody. And uh yes, you know 371 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: very um just and ever it makes more money, which 372 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: is the you know, money is the driving, the warder 373 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: and behind everything. More million dollars, more gross. Yeah, that's 374 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: uh be be being too n C double A should 375 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: directly pay players now. I do think that's gonna be 376 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: interesting to see. Is and we kind of talked about 377 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: before the show, but if you have players maybe opting 378 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: out the playoffs, like is a championship game? Is the 379 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: allure of a championship if you're like the lowest seed, 380 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: Is that enough for a premier NFL prospect to put 381 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: himself at risk? Uh instead of going and getting ready 382 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 1: for the combine? Time will tell if it's not. I 383 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: imagine that problem can be Young would play in the 384 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: playoff it was it was available this year. I think 385 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: he would. Um. I think maybe an example would be 386 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 1: like like it would be like if Michael Pinics. If 387 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: Michael Pinos had to go to Ohio State and Michael 388 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 1: Pinos is tracking as like a first round quarterback, does 389 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: Michael Pinos go and do that? I mean, I don't 390 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,719 Speaker 1: know the competitor me says yes, but but but at 391 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: the same time, I'm not having to sit in the 392 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: room where my agents like, hey man, if you don't 393 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: get hurt, you're going to make millions of dollars. And 394 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: plus you need to have a good combine, which is 395 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: a whole different training regiment than getting ready for full ball. 396 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,199 Speaker 1: So like, I get both sides. But my point is, 397 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: with the extra money, you could probably just pay players, 398 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: like the NFL pays players extra when you make the playoffs. 399 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: I think they could probably end up doing that. Well, 400 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: I think too. Let's not forget like the endorsements that 401 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 1: are gonna come with these playoff games, Like you are 402 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: one of the part of the top twelve teams in 403 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: the country. So if you're starting quarterback like Michael pinnockx Jr. 404 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: And you're in the playoffs and going to get to 405 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: Ohio State, I guarantee you there's gonna be some opportunities 406 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: for you to make money leading up to the game, 407 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: posting some on social media representing some companies. So like, 408 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: why you may not get paid directly from the n 409 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: s A, you will get paid because of the game 410 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: that you're being up. You're a part of and that 411 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: your name is gonna be in a lot of conversations 412 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: heading into that game. So there is. And if you 413 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: out well and if you ball out right, yeah you 414 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: could get injured. That's football. But if Michael Pennocks goes 415 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: and beats Ohio State, you're gonna tell me the NFL 416 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: scouts when it be like salivating to that right, No, 417 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 1: they'd be I don't want to say it would be 418 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: real quick. Yeah, the woman just yeah, just plaze. You 419 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: said yes more than bad post. Please, um, get that 420 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: out of you. Let's just put the matches on. The 421 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: bat went over, but just the reader rate. If we 422 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: had the playoffs today, you cannot tell me this would 423 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: be bad football. Ohio State versus Washington, Alabama versus Utah, 424 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 1: Tennessee versus Kansas State, and Penn State first Clemson. Those 425 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: are four football games. Yeah, like what where is a 426 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: bad game in that situation? Like if you're a Cafana 427 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: college football and you see those brands going at it, 428 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 1: my ass would be on the chair drinking a cold 429 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: beer with T Bob enjoying it, getting ready to it 430 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: late night snaps and saying hell yeah ten years ago. 431 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: Well and even look at your top four seeds. Do 432 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: you tell me that TCU and USC like looks like 433 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: they would just roll through five through twelve Like, No, 434 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: not at all. We've seen those teams struggle with five 435 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: to twelve, So you no get that. Lout of the 436 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: problem is it's just that I do get a college 437 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:05,719 Speaker 1: football is top heavy, right and the the the behemoth 438 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: in the room can feel overwhelming. And right now in 439 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: Kirby Smart and Georgia, you have a group that feels overwhelming. Aaron, 440 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: how many regular season wins in a row? Now? Is 441 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: this for Georgia? Uh? Is it three?

I think they're thirty and 444 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: thirty one over the past thirty one games, thirty and 445 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: one over the past one games.

It's almost like it's like 456 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: my whole job and whinning it. Damn you, you've sucked 457 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 1: me in your producer wiles.

And then 464 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: Stetsons one who finally got that.

When I'm doing this, like I feel 474 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: it in the belly, the soul coming out. That's a 475 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: whole screen. That's about the games. Alright, Oh my bad, 476 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: My bad, My bad, bro, my bad. Okay, that was 477 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 1: a little slap of the hand there. Okay, let's get 478 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 1: to the top games of the weekend and we'll just 479 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: go in chronological order here, and that means that we 480 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: will start with tomorrow night's game the Trojans USC and 481 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: Utah USC losing this game earlier in the season on 482 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: a two point conversion in Utah um a game in 483 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: which they kind of had a lot working against them 484 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: in terms of circumstance. But the thing is there, and 485 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: I don't feel that this is the same USC team, right. 486 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 1: I feel like they've only gotten better since that game. 487 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: I feel like the confidence that they have after getting 488 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: the two big wins at back to back weeks over 489 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: U C. L A and then even more impressive win 490 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: over Notre Dame, and the form that Caleb Williams is 491 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: in right now, and there's not any slight to Utah. 492 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: So I think they are excellent and we get into 493 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: that just a form that Caleb Williams and that team 494 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,360 Speaker 1: is in right now. They're playing with more belief than ever. 495 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,239 Speaker 1: I think that USC. I think they get it done 496 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: against you. I think they get revenge, and I think 497 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: they they win their first Pack twelve championship since twenty eighteen. 498 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: I'm with you, man, I think USC wins this game. 499 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: Just Caleb right now is clearly the best player in 500 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: the country. There's no doubt about that. He's playing with 501 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence. He's throwing the ball at an 502 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: extremely high level. What he's doing in the pocket though 503 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: it looks like a a professional going against a high 504 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: school player, like that's what I did back in high 505 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: school and I'm not even athletic and I was doing that, 506 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: Like he's doing that against good defenses, and it's just 507 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 1: it's it's just to me, the game has slowed down 508 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: so much for him that it's just it's all coming 509 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: to him at a very easy pace to be able 510 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: to go make plays over and over again. The arm angles, 511 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: the adjustments that throwing the ball vertically down the field, 512 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: They're going to be fine on offense. There's no doubt 513 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: about it that they will score points against most pretty 514 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: much every team in the country. Maybe besides, we'll see 515 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: what they look like versus Michigan and Georgia win that matchup, 516 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: and if that matchup does come about. Um, it's it's 517 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: about the defense. We've talked about all the year, like 518 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: what what what will we see from this defense? And 519 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: can they slow down? Please? Can they slow down? Dalton Kincaid, 520 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: Let's go back to the first matchup. The tight end 521 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: for for Utah sixteen catches, four yards and a touchdown. 522 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just outrageous stats were put up by 523 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: so can you slow him down? Last week? First mayor 524 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: Mayor the tight end for for Notre Dame were the 525 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: best in the country. A catches yards, two touchdowns. A 526 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: little bit better slowing him down still, you know, got 527 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: to slow them down in the red zone a little 528 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 1: bit and not you know, put your safeties on an island. 529 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: But if you can slow down the tight end spot 530 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: and force someone else to beat you, I think the 531 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: defense could be fine and then just get a couple 532 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: of turnovers. It's just it's it's it's every single week 533 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: this defense bends, breaks a little bit, but then get 534 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: you a turnover. Um, I just think they're the better team. 535 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: I think they're playing at a high level right now. 536 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: I said it yesterday. USC in Michigan are to the 537 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: most confident teams in America right now. And it's on 538 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 1: a neutral site. They're not playing their verse utall at 539 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: their home field. I think that plays a big factor 540 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: in this as well. Give me U c l A 541 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: with a big win. Uh you you I know that 542 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: you couldn't help yourself just now at the end, but 543 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: you did say U c l A with the big win. Um, 544 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 1: sorry us A, sorry us not bad. I don't know. 545 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 1: I think you are officially kicked out of Jian boys. 546 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: You had no faith in the cover last week. Don't 547 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: give any ship about thinking they were gonna win, just 548 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: not cover. It's still no faith. Uh. You just dropped 549 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: a U c l A. You know what they call that? 550 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: Aaron a Freudian slim.

I like that l s Us 577 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: getting seventeen and a half against Georgia. I don't think 578 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: I like that eighteen and a half now on the 579 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: Vanduel sports book gaps.

Um, you don't gut 589 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: realize how good Utah has been recently. I guess I didn't. 590 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I know they've always been good, but this 591 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: is fourth Pack twelve championship. No no, no, no no sorry, 592 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: I mean like, this is Utah's fourth Pack twelve championship 593 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: in the last five years. I mean they they have 594 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: been here a lot recently. Uh. This is USC's fourth 595 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: time in this game all time since it came about 596 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: interesting LYE both team has only won one, so they 597 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: both have not done well. Uh Traditionally when they've gotten here, 598 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: somebody's gonna win. I'll take the guy in the team 599 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: who has the quarterback who kind of looks like Patrick 600 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: Mahomes back there. Uh, he looks unbelievable. So give me 601 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: USC and THENCE again. Notice spect to came rising or 602 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: winning ham. Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but it's just 603 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: really hard to beat a team twice, especially a team 604 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: with Caleb Williams. Anything else in the Pac twelve Championship 605 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: before we headed the Big twelve. Uh, nope, nope. We'll 606 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: be fun time watching it tomorrow night. I do. I 607 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: do like the fact that it's on Friday night. I 608 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: think it's the best game of the weekend that in 609 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: these old championship we're about to get into. So it'll 610 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: be fun, fun, fun, little starter to the weekend. So 611 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: shoutout Vandel Fandel Sports Book, AP promo code snaps for 612 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: all the great sign up deals. Uh. USC is favored 613 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: by two and a half. Similarly, another rematch only with 614 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: the kind of first is old flipped TC you favored 615 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: by two and a half against Kansas State. Uh and 616 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: to me, um, Well, actually, Aaron, I'll let I'll let 617 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 1: you start this this one because I'm feeling TCU here. 618 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: But you've been saying for probably the better part of 619 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 1: like almost two months now, the Kansas State's going to 620 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 1: beat TCU in the Big twelve Championship. Why do you 621 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: feel so good about Cleman induced Vaughan in this Kansas 622 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: State Wildcat team? Well, listen, first, I'll TCU is improved 623 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: immensely here at the past month on defense, so you know, 624 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: they definitely have more of an opportunity to win this 625 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: game compared to the first go round. I just still 626 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: don't like their defense. I think Will Howard, who has 627 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: been playing great this entire season to anticipate playing this 628 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: weekend at the quarterback spot for Kansas State, had his 629 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: way that first go around thirto touchdowns. You know, I'll 630 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: make the excuse again. I mean, the reason they lost 631 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: the football game up to ten is Adrian Martinez was out. Uh, 632 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: Will Howard gets banned up, Jake, Jake, No, no, no, 633 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: no time out, time out. You want to have your 634 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,840 Speaker 1: cake and it too. You can't praise Well Howard having 635 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: his way in game number one and then say that 636 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: Adrian Martinez getting hurt was the reason why why they lost. 637 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: Adrian Martinez the only reason why Will Howard play no, no, no. 638 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: This just gets the point that like, if if Adrian 639 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: was there and starting and got hurt, that you would 640 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: have had Will Howard to back him up. But the 641 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: problem is you were already down one quarterback. Then you 642 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: lose your second quarterback, then you're onto your No. Adrian 643 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: Martinez did start that game, and he went out, and 644 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: then Will Howard came in, and then he dubably came 645 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: in and through like one past yeah for an interception 646 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: he threw from interception. So all I'm saying at the 647 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: end of the day, they had to go to their 648 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: third string quarterback. His first play, he comes to the 649 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: little in perception. That's all I'm saying to you, Like 650 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: they had to go deep into the quarterback spot to 651 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: to to try to figure out how to hold onto 652 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: the lead. As long as they stay healthy quarterback, which 653 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: I think they'll have both guys healthy and INTII making 654 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: Will Howard to have a day, I think they're I 655 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: think they win the football I think it would be 656 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: a great football game. I think TCU is still going 657 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: to be in the playoffs. They deserve it. I'm still 658 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: a fan of what they've done this season. I just 659 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: think Kansas State, if we've talked about this previous game, 660 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: it's always tough to be a team twice. They should 661 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: have won the first time. I think they're going in 662 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: with that kind of confidence and and piste off that 663 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 1: they didn't win it, and um, they take care of business. 664 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: Give me Kansas State in this one. Yeah, I do 665 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: like that. I'm just ignoring or applying cliches wherever it 666 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 1: fits who I want to win the game, right, Like, uh, 667 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: in the USC case, Yeah, it's hard to be a 668 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: good team twice, Like Utah's in trouble. US is gonna 669 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 1: win in this case? No, no, no, no, no, TC 670 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 1: used the better team. Uh, they're just gonna win twice 671 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: because they are flat out better. Here here, here's the deal. 672 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: I actually would argue that it was an advantage for 673 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: Kansas State the first time around that Adrian Martinez got hurt, 674 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: because when you look at Will Howard's body of work, 675 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: he has actually been fantastic. However, going into that game 676 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: and Will Howard Adrian Martinez are two very different style 677 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: of quarterbacks. Well Howard doing the more traditional through the airway. Obviously, 678 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,839 Speaker 1: Adrian Martinez is a complete running machine. And so if 679 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 1: you're TCU and you're already not the best defense and 680 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: you're game planning to stop Adrian Martinez, well that is 681 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: a wildly different game plan than what you need to 682 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,320 Speaker 1: do to stop Will Howard. So all of a sudden 683 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: you get hit with this will switch a rout. And 684 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: in fact, if you look at Kansas State's last five 685 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: games in which they have been excellent, there four and 686 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 1: one in the last five they're afting forty points a game, 687 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: They've only given up fifteen points total, like fifteen total 688 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: points and all the second halves in those five games. 689 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 1: But the one game they lost was the one game 690 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:48,280 Speaker 1: Will Howard didn't play when Adrian Martinez is back. Every 691 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: other game they won. So I think that TCU this 692 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: time around, with multiple games of film film on Will Howard, 693 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: knowing that while there is some talk out there that 694 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: I read that like maybe Adrian Martinez could get used 695 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: in some unique ways or some like sub packages, it 696 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: still looks like he's mainly gonna be too limited to 697 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 1: have a consistent impact of the game. Like I think 698 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 1: it's actually a better set up for TCU this time 699 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: around because they know they're preparing for Will Howard and 700 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: they will have more information on him and how to 701 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: stop him. Uh and plus like what at a certain point, 702 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 1: you gotta stop doubting TCU, Right. All they do is 703 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 1: just keep coming through all mad Match dug In the 704 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: company does is just keep finding a way to win. 705 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: I think they'll do it again. Last thing here is um, yeah, 706 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: go ahead, No, I was gonna ask you so, so 707 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: say say USC loses on Friday Night, TCU wins. Is 708 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:50,399 Speaker 1: Max dougg In the Heisman winner? Oh? Um? I don't 709 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: know who's left. I don't know who's left. To me, 710 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: it's it's it's clearly Caleb Williams. And I think even 711 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: if he has a great game, they lose it still 712 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 1: will be able to say Caleb ships the bed. So 713 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: he is an awful night and they lose this because 714 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: of him, TCU wins. I don't know anyone left besides 715 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 1: Max dug Into to to get the heisman. For reference, 716 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: Kyle bollis corently minus three thousand to win the Heisman 717 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: on Vendal Oh god, uh yeah, so a four point 718 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 1: four mathematically he would have to crap the bed. It's 719 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: certainly yes, it is stoically on the board, like how 720 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: bad does Cayleb Williams have to play for Max to 721 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: win two three picks? And they love Um, Yeah, I 722 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,399 Speaker 1: mean yeah, I guess right, I guess I suppose so. Yeah, 723 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: it feels like Max Duggan would almost be by default 724 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: probably the next guy. Um kind of shaping up to 725 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: be a weird, kind of unexciting Heisman race. Uh. You 726 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,720 Speaker 1: know what, people aren't talking about this game though probably enough, Aaron, 727 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 1: are the two backs, right? And I'm talking about both 728 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: Deuce Vaughan and Can Miller. On the TCU side of 729 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: the equation, Deuce Fawns gone for yards uh seven touchdowns 730 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: on the year. Of course, if you're my age and 731 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 1: you remember Darren Sprawls, it just feels like Kansas State 732 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 1: is that it's best when it has a five six 733 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: running back. Uh, And well it kind of looks that 734 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: way as well. But Miller is someone who you don't 735 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: really think about for tc because I mean, we're sitting 736 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 1: here talking about Max dug and everybody talks about Quinn 737 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 1: John's the big ride receiver. Miller has over twelve hundred 738 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 1: yards and sixteen touchdowns on the year. He's ran for 739 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: a touchdown in thirteen straight games, longest actor streak in 740 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:39,760 Speaker 1: the FBS and two away from Latine La Dainian Tomlinson's 741 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: school record. So, like, I look, I think if you're 742 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: looking forward, kind of weather vane pointing you to whether 743 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 1: or not TC is gonna get it done? What kind 744 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: of night is Miller having? I think TC gets done? 745 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: You think Kansas State does? I do ye? It would 746 00:40:55,120 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 1: be a great game, though Johnson Queen crif um xed 747 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: on the list. Uh, the best game of the weekend 748 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 1: l s U Georgia the Tigers big time underdogs here. Uh, 749 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 1: you gotta love the next level strategy from Brian Kelly. 750 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: Like this is how Brian Kelly got to be in 751 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: the top five coach in the entire country. He studied 752 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: the tape. Okay, Aaron, watch the tape. You always say 753 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 1: that Brian Kelly watch the tape. He saw that Georgia. 754 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 1: It's at its worst when it precedes you to not 755 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: be a threat. Right, Um, when when you play possum, 756 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 1: if you will, so Kelly looking to kind of take 757 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,920 Speaker 1: down the natural You know, the predators kind of natural 758 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: hackles like looking at maybe get Georgia at ease A bit, 759 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: Kelly decides, Okay, we've already won the West. If we 760 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: go into A and M and we allow ourselves to 761 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,160 Speaker 1: be run over and look pathetic, well that is the 762 00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 1: best possible possible path to having Georgia overlook us, and 763 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: then we could catch him by surprise when they least expected. 764 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 1: Genius maneuvering by Brian Kelly here looking shitty last week, 765 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: only to come back and affect the upset tomorrow NFL 766 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: s U fans walk out of there as being SEC champions. Yeah, 767 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: I guess he just he didn't want to win a 768 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 1: national championship. He's like, that's just that's that's too much 769 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: for year one. I don't want to like completely blow 770 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: my load in year one. Uh, let's just let's pace 771 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,879 Speaker 1: ourselves a little bit. I just want to win SEC 772 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,879 Speaker 1: expectations do you want to deal with if you year 773 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: one are and then you gotta win one every year? Dude? 774 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: What happened last week? You are He's playing chess where 775 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: we are playing checkers. Congratulations to him for for these 776 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: mind games. Right now, listen, Georgia got punk last year 777 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 1: in this football game, we all thought they were gonna win. 778 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 1: I was screaming from the top of Mercedes ben Stadium 779 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,760 Speaker 1: that Alabama was garbage, that Georgia was a better team, 780 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 1: that we're about to slay this dragon. Get this monkey 781 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,240 Speaker 1: off our back.

I know this this, but anyways, 791 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: they got embarrassed. It ain't gonna happen again. I was 792 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 1: talking with with Chris Smith the other night, defensive back 793 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: for Georgia, the guy that's been in this will be 794 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: his fourth SEC Championship game, Like, how crazy is that that? 795 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 1: You know, if you go to Georgia, you're gonna be 796 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 1: in Atlanta fanning for an SEC championship and then going 797 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: to the playoffs. It's just what Kirby's building right now. 798 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 1: But they want to win. They don't want to get embarrassed. 799 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: They want they want the perfect season. Like winning a 800 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: national championship is amazing, that's all you could ever want, 801 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: but we know it. Winning an SC champions game is 802 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: right below that, and then going for a complete perfect 803 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 1: season is next level. So um, they're feeling that they 804 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: know they're the better football team and and Georgia is 805 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: is They're in a spar now where they pick and 806 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: choose when they want to go out there and kick ass. 807 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 1: And I think this is one of the games where 808 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,439 Speaker 1: they do decide. Okay, this is a a Tennessee game, 809 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: this is a an Oregon game. This is a game 810 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 1: versus Florida where we actually show up, play forwarder cores 811 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: of football and and just dominate. Um, the only way 812 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: L s U makes is a game. I sat down 813 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: your show this morning, tea, Bob. They gotta take some chances. 814 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: They gotta pick and choose, Like when you get that 815 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 1: one on one shot, you can't be scared. You gotta 816 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: go for the big one. Because if you think you're 817 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,320 Speaker 1: going to methodically move the ball down the field, against 818 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: his defense. You're in trouble. Tennessee couldn't do it, um, 819 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 1: and they missed their shots. When the shots are there, 820 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: you take them, but you better hit because right now 821 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 1: I just don't see the other way that L s 822 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 1: U feels like they can move the ball up and 823 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: down the football field. You know, Aaron, It's kind of funny. 824 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 1: I talked about Lincoln Riley being good at making the playoffs, 825 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: and I'm winning the playoffs. George has been very good 826 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:14,680 Speaker 1: at making the SEC championship game. Um, you'll have struggled 827 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to winning the SEC championship. Only one 828 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 1: in three for Kirby Smart in these SEC championships, And 829 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 1: I mean you just you just look at you know, 830 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 1: I'm I'm thinking back to when I was a kid, Dude. 831 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:29,759 Speaker 1: I remember watching that game in two thousand three where 832 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 1: l s U put it on George's ass. I remember 833 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 1: playing in the game in twenty eleven where l s 834 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 1: U put it on George's ass. I remember being on 835 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 1: the honey Badger George is. Now Now, you don't you 836 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 1: don't know the difference in that game. You know, the 837 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: last two? You know, the big difference. Last two was 838 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,880 Speaker 1: the number one team of the nation at that time. 839 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: That that's a little bit different, a little bit different 840 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 1: the other way around. Now, you know we are the 841 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: number one team the nition now. As Rob d says 842 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: in the chat, what about OH five buddy, you're right, okay, 843 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: somehow forgotten about two thousand and five. Actually I had not. 844 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 1: I was at the Oh five game as well. And 845 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,800 Speaker 1: watch it Georgia Bulldog team. Uh, whoop up on L 846 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 1: s U. But that's still three one bitch. Okay, we're 847 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: going for the gentleman sweep this year. We're about to 848 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: make that thing for one. Um. Yes, be being I 849 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 1: played with the honey Badger was my last year and 850 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 1: els you okay here, here's what I will say is 851 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: that my Okay. Realistically, we went basically positioned by position 852 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: for the first hour of the show today and tried 853 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: to like be like, okay, how do you try to 854 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 1: stop this? And it looks awful for L s U. 855 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 1: There's just not an advantage to be had on the field. Uh, 856 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: and especially like maybe offensively, you know, there's some things 857 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 1: that I think are interesting for L s U. But 858 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 1: even then, and I mean like when Georgia's on offense, Um, 859 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: but even then, Georgia represents so many unique problems, Like 860 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 1: nobody he has tight ends like Georgia has. Else she 861 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 1: hasn't really had to deal with that. Nobody quite throws 862 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: to the back as much as Georgia does. Maybe kind 863 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,760 Speaker 1: of Alabama Mr. Gives a little bit, uh, but whatever. 864 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 1: To me, the scariest part is the Georgia defense because 865 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 1: you just look at the game logs from the last 866 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: two years and there's nothing to look at and be like, oh, 867 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 1: we can do that, except for the SEC Championship last 868 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: year where Bryce Young through for four hundred yards and 869 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: I feel bad, but I don't see Jaden Daniels throwing 870 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:37,240 Speaker 1: for four hundred yards this game, So like I almost 871 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,359 Speaker 1: feel like it's it's a game where if Elsh wants 872 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: to win it. It's like the old Malcolm Gladwell book 873 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: David Versus Goliath, Right, how do you affect an upset 874 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,399 Speaker 1: as an underdog? You have to be willing to be 875 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 1: very risky and strategies that may make you lose worse 876 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,759 Speaker 1: but also might have huge payoff. So like, if there's 877 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: a world where maybe you can get Jaden Daniels into 878 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 1: this mindset of effort, if I manufacture one on one. 879 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna chunk it deep and see my receiver 880 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,919 Speaker 1: can win that battle. Maybe maybe you could get there. 881 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 1: But I don't know, dude, I just do not see 882 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 1: how you are supposed to move, especially because when you 883 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 1: look at how Jane Daniels has gotten shut down this year, 884 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: George's defense has the best personnel to re enact that 885 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: shutting down. Yes, no they do. Um. I mean that's 886 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: the key to I mean, what how healthy is Jade 887 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 1: and how confident is he in running the football when 888 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 1: when things aren't there? You and I both agree you 889 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: gotta take some shots. Last year the reason why Alabama 890 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,720 Speaker 1: one Jamison Williams seven catches, hundred and eighty four yards, 891 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 1: two Dutch swens and met she had ninety seven yards 892 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 1: and a touchdown as well, Like I like l Shoes receivers, 893 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 1: But Jameson Williams ain't on that roster. So um, then 894 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,320 Speaker 1: obviously you don't have the quarterback that that about, booty, Dude, 895 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 1: what do you mean Casehawan? Booty? He say a Shan 896 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 1: needs a game like that for his own sanity, Like 897 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 1: three hundred yards in this season? What our case Booty 898 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,400 Speaker 1: stats this? He negs, and that's a very good question. 899 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,359 Speaker 1: They have been near the average existed. I don't even 900 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 1: know if he's getting average. Okay, he's gonna he's just 901 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: secondly receiver on the team. Yeah. Cation beauty is forty 902 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 1: two catches for four dred thirty one yards, averaging about 903 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 1: forty yards a game. Uh um, all right, Oh last thing, sorry, 904 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:29,839 Speaker 1: real quick here, Oh man, look at that. Oh that's right, 905 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: I forgot about that. Oh look at that. Look at 906 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: that and tell us you beating George's ass right there, dude, 907 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 1: look at your boy. Wait, no, that's not how this works. 908 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 1: Over your fifty three fifty three. Look at that. Great 909 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 1: memories there, Aaron Murray. Huh beating the Bulldogs One of 910 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 1: my favorite favorite feelings ever that that two thousand thirteen 911 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,319 Speaker 1: ass open in Athens was so much fun, so much fun. 912 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 1: Best game I bet the game. I always want to 913 00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:01,280 Speaker 1: talk about the day that we outduled the met Show. Ah. 914 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 1: That was a very that was a very fun day. 915 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:10,280 Speaker 1: Um all right, Uh, let's move on from Blake Corum 916 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:17,360 Speaker 1: having season engine season ending knee surgery. I was just 917 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,399 Speaker 1: gonna say, uh, as we moved to the Big Ten, 918 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 1: that Blake Krum has been playing a little uh coy 919 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,200 Speaker 1: rum with his status status this weekend as he's basically 920 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: I'm taking a day by day. Um. So it is weird, right, 921 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 1: That's obviously not ideal, not for a Michigan team that's 922 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 1: going to need him in the bigger games down the road, 923 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:38,240 Speaker 1: like I don't think they need him sat against Purdue. 924 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: We just want to give does does does it hit 925 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 1: a little less? Though? After what you saw last week 926 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:49,799 Speaker 1: out of Michigan without Blake Core Um, no, Ohio State 927 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,600 Speaker 1: just it more to me proved that Ohio State still 928 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 1: is not good on the defense side of the football. So, um, 929 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 1: that's a huge loss. I mean you're talking about a 930 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: guy that was was was definitely in the thicket things 931 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 1: for the Heisman UH towards the end of the season. 932 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 1: So that is devastating for them. And yeah, it does 933 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: feel good the way you're able to rush it in 934 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 1: the second half and your backups came in there and 935 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: played well. But when your identity is running the football 936 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 1: domain the line of scrimmage and you lose your best 937 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 1: player on offense, I don't know if j Jacob put 938 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: the team on his back. We're about to find out again. 939 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,799 Speaker 1: He did it once, the lightning strike once, and can 940 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 1: he do it over and over again for three more games? 941 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 1: This week doesn't matter. I mean, they'll take care of 942 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: business first, perdue, regardless. But yeah, it just once again. Man, 943 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 1: I'm a dog fan. I'm I'm feeling pretty good about 944 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:41,879 Speaker 1: this playoffs, especially now that stinks. I feel for the kid. 945 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 1: He's a help of player. I mean, you just m 946 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 1: you don't even know because I guess he I guess 947 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,800 Speaker 1: these changes happen over time. But like y'all are going 948 00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 1: to be Alabama, you guys are going to be the 949 00:51:56,040 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 1: insufferable pricks that have no perspective and to fire everyone 950 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 1: down and all these things. Unbelie no, no, no, no no, no, 951 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 1: no no no. The produce Michigan game, has it moved 952 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:14,280 Speaker 1: it all? What if it moves? I might wait because 953 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,920 Speaker 1: I love I think Michigan covers the sixteen and a half. 954 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 1: And if it goes even lower, you know, I don't 955 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 1: know if I know some diaper money, Let's make some 956 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,480 Speaker 1: diaper money, Let's go.

Though. Though I 971 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 1: like enjoy hunting when I go and stuff I don't go, 972 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,360 Speaker 1: I never like go out of my way uh to 973 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: go hunting. Really. Um, okay, this okay, I know I 974 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,120 Speaker 1: funk around a lot, but this is this is said, 975 00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: so I wanna be a little serious here. Uh. Did 976 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,279 Speaker 1: you see the story about Aidan O'Connell, Because if you're 977 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 1: looking for kind of an arpstring story to four new 978 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 1: quarterback Aidan O'Connell loses his brother last week. They announced 979 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 1: it today. His brother passed. His oldest brother passed. It 980 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 1: seems that we don't know the details. Seems like it 981 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:51,799 Speaker 1: was unexpected his older brother's passed. He still plays UM 982 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: against Indiana, he plays well, He puts his team into 983 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,960 Speaker 1: the Big Ten Championship. He was visibly upset on the 984 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,880 Speaker 1: sideline right. He was crying into his towel. He was 985 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: speaking a lot with the team chaplain here. His teammates 986 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: talk about him and UH and and reportedly from what 987 00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 1: I've read, his faith is very important to him, and 988 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 1: he's like a really just good young man, leader of 989 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: men and UM. He's actually had to be away from 990 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,880 Speaker 1: the team all week, and he is helping prepare things 991 00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 1: for his brother and his family and being there for them. 992 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: And then he is coming back into town UH to 993 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 1: play in this game. So look, I think Michigan roles, 994 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,839 Speaker 1: but in terms of who my heart and emotions will 995 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:36,799 Speaker 1: be with this week, it is very clearly per due. 996 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 1: I would love nothing more than if Aidan O'Connell could 997 00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: somehow UM rise to this personal tragedy and give Purdue 998 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: their their first Big Ten championship since Drew Brees was 999 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,720 Speaker 1: the quarterback in two thousand and and to be clear, 1000 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,279 Speaker 1: he expressed some similar motion last week, calling it like 1001 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,760 Speaker 1: the greatest feeling in the world putting his team into 1002 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:03,320 Speaker 1: this big tin championship games. So definitely a heart strings 1003 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 1: narrative to to cheer four their Natian O'Connell and he 1004 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: he was like, he's a string quarterback, but he's had 1005 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:13,160 Speaker 1: a good career. To man, I've enjoyed watching him out 1006 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 1: there and and executed and run this offense. So I 1007 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 1: mean that's that is a heavy heavy burd for him 1008 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 1: last week and obviously into this week too, So prayers 1009 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 1: for him and his family as they go through this 1010 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 1: and still amazing. Like that's the one thing you do 1011 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: love about college football team Bob and and and just 1012 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 1: football in general, is like you lose your brother, but 1013 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 1: you have five plus other brothers are there to support you. 1014 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 1: Like that is That's what to me is so special 1015 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: about the game of football is the brotherhood. It's the love, 1016 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 1: it's the support. Uh And I guarantee you man, every 1017 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 1: player on that that that roster has his back is 1018 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: shown him love and giving him and his family all 1019 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 1: the support that they need during this time. So that's 1020 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 1: that's why I love this game. It's it's it's truly amazing. 1021 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, um, I agree. So that is the big 1022 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 1: in championship and there's never any easy way to transition 1023 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,880 Speaker 1: out of that.
