1
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: All right, welcome in Late Kick is Live.

2
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 2: Finally Sunday Night, September twenty sixth year of Our Lord,

3
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, jam packed as jam packed can possibly be.

4
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: We have got yet another Saturday in the rearview that

5
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 1: they told you hashtag the casuals.

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: Told you would be one that you could kind of bypass.

7
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 2: You can't take the bypass. Right around week four, well false,

8
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 2: total fake news. We had chaos from really dawn until

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 2: well passed dark. I was up in the hotel room

10
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,959
Speaker 2: in the wee hours of the morning trying to see

11
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: if Colorado could hang with Arizona State. Much to our chagrin,

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: they could not. But man, we have got a wall

13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: to wall show tonight. Arkansas over anm That's the game

14
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 2: that we were there for in Dallas. I have got

15
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 2: a lot of stories and details for you from that one.

16
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: Believe me.

17
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 2: Notre Dame over Wisconsin down, goes North Carolina down, goes Clemson, down,

18
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: goes Iowa State. Texas rolls, Oklahoma survives but wins the Sooners.

19
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if you realize this. They are four

20
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: and oh they are undefeated. The Big twelve picture though

21
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 2: very cloudy. I landed in Nashville today through a layer

22
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: of thick fog, might as well have been landing right

23
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: smack dab in the middle of the Big Twelve, or,

24
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: for that matter, the ACC because these conference races are

25
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 2: a mess. It's great, don't you love it? It's wonderful.

26
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 2: Some would even call it a renaissance season. Alabama and

27
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: Georgia one and the scores are not noteworthy, but there

28
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 2: were a couple of things that happened in both of

29
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: those games that we're going to talk about. I'm just

30
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: going to ignore the frozen screen and move on because

31
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 2: I'm tired of talking about it.

32
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,199
Speaker 1: LSU got it done.

33
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 2: I got fourteen games to touch on in all early

34
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 2: Best Bets Renaissance Tour reveal for Week five, and there

35
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 2: are a lot of destinations that we could choose from.

36
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: But man, we had a great time in Dallas yesterday.

37
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if I met one hundred of you,

38
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 2: but it was several several, several dozen if it wasn't

39
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: into the triple digits. But we have another hero to crown,

40
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: and this time I believe it was at sec Nation.

41
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: And to remind you what's on the line, Well, I'm

42
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: about to tell you what's on the line, because it's

43
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: brand new, but to remind you what the challenge has been.

44
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 2: It's get our brand national recognition. And you guys have

45
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: taken to getting to game day early or getting to

46
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: SEC Nation early, and you've taken your posters and you've

47
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: done it. We've already think got four or five. And

48
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 2: the latest hero that we have to crown, he just

49
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: came forward a little while ago, is Michael Roche.

50
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: There is this setup. He got there well ahead of time.

51
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 2: You can tell the sun's not even up if you're

52
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: watching on UH or you if you're listening on the

53
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 2: podcast right there behind former Alabama great Roman Harper.

54
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: There it was front and center on SEC Nation.

55
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 2: And Michael Roche now joins a growing list of late

56
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: Kick heroes.

57
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: And I think game days in Athens this weekend.

58
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: I'm not sure where SEC Nation will be, but I

59
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 2: will tell you I have promised you for the last

60
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 2: several shows that we are getting something custom made for

61
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: you guys. Anyone who's able to pull this off. Remember,

62
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: we are not trying to bombard anyone. We're not trying

63
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 2: to paint our chest and go Streaker style on the field.

64
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 2: Commit any misdemeanors or anything like that. But if we

65
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: can in a good, clean way get it done, you

66
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 2: can get it done.

67
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: And we have something to give you.

68
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: All five of you tomorrow will be shipped Peate State

69
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: Chalices of Supremacy.

70
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: What is that?

71
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: And actually it's not even chalice is because the plural

72
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: of chalice Colin as we all know, is challi. That

73
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 2: is a chalice of supremacy. Now that is from the eye, Josh.

74
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 2: But really what we have there is we have the

75
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: Pate State logo custom engraved into a chalice, not a cup.

76
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: It's not a cup, people, it's solid glass.

77
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: We could shatter these things like stone colds entrance music

78
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 2: that bad boy is going to anyone who pulls this off,

79
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 2: and they are not for sale.

80
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: We do not give.

81
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: Those away anywhere else other than if you pull off the.

82
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: Old school photo bomb.

83
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 2: And five of you have done it so far, I've

84
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: already been told by like a dozen of you you're

85
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: gonna pull it off. This week, we'll see. I think

86
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 2: our five can confirm it's a little bit harder than

87
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 2: it looks. So I will tell you before the end

88
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: of the show which best bets were on this weekend,

89
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: but b where the Renaissance tour is headed. There are

90
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: so many options. It was one of one of the

91
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: tougher weeks, especially in the SEC alone. We got Cincinnati

92
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 2: at Notre Dame two to pick, so I will tell

93
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: you all about it at the end of the show.

94
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: But man, we got a lot to get to, so

95
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 2: let's front load it with a lot of rapid reaction

96
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: from yesterday.

97
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: Arkansas.

98
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: Man, oh man, what a day twenty to ten A

99
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: win over Texas A and M. This was a pleasure

100
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: to experience, and I mean a real pleasure to experience.

101
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: Now.

102
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: I know a lot of us spoke out during the

103
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 2: week about how we would much prefer it being college station,

104
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: or much preferre it being faithful, but that is what

105
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: it is. We don't have any control over that. But

106
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 2: what a year to be an Arkansas season ticket holder.

107
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 2: You've already had a decade's worth of memories in September

108
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 2: to do what you did to Texas and to now

109
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 2: do what you did to Texas A and M. And

110
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: you haven't even flipped that calendar to October. It's barely

111
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 2: fall and you've already pulled that off. That was memorable.

112
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 2: I saw a lot of your faces yesterday. I spoke

113
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 2: to a lot of you before and in a much

114
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: more jubilant fashion afterwards. But what a memorable scene post game.

115
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you about that in just a second.

116
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 2: It was so great to witness. I know a lot

117
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: of you saw some of the footage I posted on

118
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 2: the social channels at late kick Josh. By the way,

119
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 2: a lot of extra stuff there that you're not going

120
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 2: to see on the show.

121
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: But what a padlock stat.

122
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 2: Sometimes the padlock stats are really complicated. Sometimes you got

123
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 2: to dive in. It's something per yards or something per game.

124
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: Here's the padlock stat. Arkansas led this game seventeen to

125
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 2: nothing in the first quarter the end. That was the

126
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 2: padlock stat, because, as it turns out, the game was

127
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: already over at that point, we just didn't know it

128
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 2: quite yet. Sometimes scoring margins are kind of relative. Back

129
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 2: in the old school Big twelve days, you could be

130
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 2: out three touchdowns and it felt like it was still

131
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 2: a seesaw back and forth affair. This game yesterday, especially

132
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: if you were watching into the second half, got down

133
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: to a one possession game, and as I was telling

134
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: Director Colin, I was on the sideline for this whole game.

135
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 2: It felt like in the building much of the credit

136
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: of the A and M f it felt like they

137
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 2: were trying as best they could to grab the throat

138
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: of that old momentum, and they tried, but to no avail.

139
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 2: It never felt like it swung. And that's rare. It's

140
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: rare because Arkansas hasn't been there before. But Arkansas has

141
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 2: a been there done that quality about themselves even though

142
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 2: a lot of these folks have not been there before,

143
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 2: which is impressive, and I'm going to talk more about

144
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 2: that in just a second, but it cannot be overstated.

145
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: The only thing fluky was the final score.

146
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 2: If you watch the rest of college football yesterday, you

147
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 2: saw a lot of final scores that were not indicative,

148
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: and you saw a lot of teams that lost even

149
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: though they outgained or they had better yards per play age,

150
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: they had more explosive plays.

151
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: Maybe they just turned the ball over a lot.

152
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 2: That was not the case here Arkansas, if you were

153
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 2: to just read a box score, probably runs it up

154
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: even more than they did on Texas.

155
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: A and M.

156
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,799
Speaker 2: They missed a chance at points near halftime. Yeah, kJ Jefferson,

157
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 2: their starting quarterback in and out of the game early

158
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 2: portions of the second half, and yet they still never

159
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 2: relinquished control of the game. Big credit to them, because again,

160
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: that's the kind of spot that a lesser team and

161
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 2: probably a younger team that is new to that environment,

162
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,559
Speaker 2: new to that stage, sort of gets a little jelly

163
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: legged in. Maybe they don't lose it, but at the

164
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 2: very least you throw them in a blender for a

165
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 2: little while. But I'll tell you the best part is

166
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: they won with a different style. Because if I'm telling

167
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 2: you that you're beating Texas A and M by double digits,

168
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 2: you probably think that that coincides with an Arkansas rushing

169
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 2: performance of two and a quarter, two and a half,

170
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: maybe even three hundred yards, And that really wasn't the case.

171
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 2: They had big plays in Traylon Burke's thinking had six

172
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: catches over one hundred and sixty yards aj Green. It

173
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 2: was all about explosive plays through the air for Arkansas early.

174
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: Now where we said that before very rarely. I think

175
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 2: they're going to need it again this week against Georgia.

176
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: But Ridgeway had a big game. Trey Williams, I was

177
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: standing next to A. I was standing next to an

178
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: A and m. Staffer, who I think three times over

179
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 2: the span of one drive, said.

180
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: Who's fifty five? Who is that? Trey Williams? That's who

181
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: that A is.

182
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 2: They killed it, Arkansas just killed it on the transfer

183
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: portal market. I mean a lot of those guys, for instance,

184
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 2: on the defensive line who you see starting Trey Williams

185
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: chief among them transfers. So they got it done there

186
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 2: and now we get to look ahead. But first I

187
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 2: want to talk about A and M for just a second.

188
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 2: Then I'm going to talk about Arkansas some more.

189
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: I know that there is.

190
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: A lot of reaction out there today that is sweeping

191
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 2: in nature. And how you got to overhaul everything. Oh,

192
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 2: we got to burn it down, and we got to

193
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 2: build from scratch here and from scratch there. I don't

194
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,599
Speaker 2: think it's overly complicated. Guys, they don't have a quarterback,

195
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 2: you know, because the one they were going to be

196
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 2: rolling with got hurt. Sometimes it's as cut and dry

197
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 2: as that offensive line is an issue for them, and

198
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 2: so even when Zach kal Zaida has time, he doesn't

199
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 2: think he has time. But you got backup quarterback, you

200
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 2: got banged up offensive line, banged up receiver corps, and

201
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 2: the reason we on this show picked Arkansas to win

202
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 2: the game out right was because of just that. There

203
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 2: was no quarterback edge for the favorite here. If anything,

204
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: the quarterback edge was in the side of Arkansas, and

205
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 2: we thought that before the game.

206
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: Certainly everyone thinks that now.

207
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: But the second part is the most important part, which

208
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 2: program looked like they were playing with the more well

209
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: recognizable identity. A and M doesn't have an offensive identity.

210
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 2: You can have a play sheet a mile long. Jimbo

211
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 2: Fisher can flip through a phone book over there if

212
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 2: he wants to. There is no offensive set that accounts

213
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 2: for quarterback not being able to stand in the pocket,

214
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 2: O line, not being able to establish pocket.

215
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: There's nothing he can do. You can call all you want,

216
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: there's nothing he can do.

217
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Arkansas just goes on the merry way and they

218
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: look like they're in complete control. So I don't think

219
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 2: there's any need to overhaul anything. I just think it

220
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: is what it is at some point with Texas A

221
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 2: and M. This is a quote, by the way, from

222
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: Jeff Tarpley, who runs our Texas A and M twenty

223
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 2: four to seven site. I think this summarized things very

224
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 2: well at one point, yesterday, Texas A and M was

225
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: playing four true or red shirt freshmen and had only

226
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: three players in the same spots as they played in

227
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 2: the Orange Bowl.

228
00:09:58,559 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: That was just this past year.

229
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 2: You've also got a backup quarterback who's being asked to

230
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 2: carry the load on offense. Juxtaposed that to the comments

231
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 2: Jimbo Fisher had in his post game setting. Someone asked

232
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 2: him how much better does Arkansas look?

233
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: And he said, look.

234
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 2: Like the same players I've been facing since I've been here.

235
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: And he's dead on the money, accurate, and that is

236
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: what made the post game scene so memorable. Jimbo's right,

237
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: A lot of these guys have been there since basically

238
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 2: he got to Texas A and M. A lot of

239
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 2: these guys are twenty two, twenty three years old. There

240
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 2: were tiers on that field yesterday. There was a massive

241
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: outpouring of emotion, and you want to know why because

242
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: it means something and it has nothing to do with

243
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 2: the playoff, and it has nothing to do with the postseason.

244
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: It has to do with the fact that a lot

245
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 2: of these same folks support staff, coaching staff. In some cases, players,

246
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 2: especially players most of all, experience things like having Western

247
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 2: Kentucky drum you in your own building. Those guys remember that,

248
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 2: And so no one really cared who they were going

249
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 2: to play next week after this game yesterday, no one

250
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 2: really cared about anything other than that moment. Again, that's

251
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 2: what college football is about. It's about saturdays. It's not

252
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: about two or three weeks down the road. It's not

253
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 2: about two or three months down the road. No one cared,

254
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 2: and it was really a pleasure to be around it.

255
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 2: No one was in a hurry to leave the field.

256
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: There was family all around the plays. There were hugs again,

257
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: a lot of tears. And you may watch that if

258
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 2: you are a fan of let's say the New England

259
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: Patriots or the Seattle Seahawks, and you may say it's

260
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: a regular season game.

261
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: Yep, it's a regular season game. That's exactly what it is.

262
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 2: And if you don't get it, that's okay, maybe this

263
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 2: sport's not for you. But for those who do get it,

264
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 2: you understand exactly why that scene would be the way

265
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 2: it is.

266
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: Nine years is.

267
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 2: A long time, and that's how long it had been

268
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 2: since they beat those guys from College Station. But I'll

269
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 2: tell you what stood out the most to me is

270
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: around the halfway point of this game, or as you

271
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 2: may know, at halftime.

272
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 1: With these teams that are newer to the head.

273
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 2: Table, I like to observe them sometimes in the way

274
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 2: they carry themselves. And let me tell you what happens

275
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 2: most of the time, and this doesn't necessarily mean anything

276
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 2: in and of itself, but a lot of times, if

277
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 2: a team is achieving something that they've been told they're

278
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: not supposed to achieve, I e. An underdog has an

279
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: early lead. I'll go up a tunnel if I can.

280
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 2: And in this case, Jerry Jones has an entire zip

281
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 2: code doing stuff, So I go up Arkansas tunnel and

282
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 2: I'll watch them come off the field after the first half,

283
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 2: and they look like Alabama. They carried themselves like Alabama.

284
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 2: They carried themselves like a team that had been there

285
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 2: before and they haven't. It was very impressive because most

286
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: of the time, what you have is you got players

287
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: bouncing off the walls and you got everyone jacked up,

288
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 2: and that's fine. You got every reason to be, which

289
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 2: makes it all the more impressive when you look so subdued,

290
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 2: like you're about halfway through a mission and I'm gonna

291
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: go to the kitchen, get something, I'll be right back,

292
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 2: and then I'll just press play and we'll continue the movie.

293
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what they did.

294
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: Arkansas hit pause for a second, and then they went

295
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 2: back out there and things went haywire, and yet they

296
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 2: never relinquished control of the game. Hats off to Sam Pittman,

297
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 2: Hats off to Arkansas. Met so many of you yesterday.

298
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: A lot of Arkansas staffers came up and said some

299
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: things to me after the game. But it all revolves

300
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: around how special the moment is for the organization, especially

301
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 2: for the folks who have been there and experienced the

302
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 2: down times the good times. For a true freshman, they

303
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 2: don't even know how good they are. You could tell

304
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 2: yesterday based on facial expression the folks that have been

305
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 2: there for a long time versus the folks who were

306
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 2: kind of new to the whole process. Because the ones

307
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: who had been there for a long time were looking

308
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 2: up all over the play. Some of them had, you know,

309
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 2: tear streams down their face, and the true freshmen they.

310
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: Just had saucer rizes. But it was great to see.

311
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: It was great to be around Arkansas at Georgia Saturday

312
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: College game Day in the house.

313
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: How about that.

314
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: I walked for a while yesterday I had to do

315
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 2: a live hit for CBS Sports HQ at ten am,

316
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 2: I guess eleven am Eastern, and that left a lot

317
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 2: of free time between then and kickoff. So myself and

318
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 2: Big Game Day, who was there with me, by the way,

319
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 2: shout out to him. We you know, we just kind

320
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: of walked around, saw the tailgating scene. There were tents

321
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: all over the place and so many of them. Colin

322
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 2: set Academy on the side. We had people at the

323
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 2: restaurant we went to talk about not Lake Kick. I

324
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,239
Speaker 2: mean they talked about that too, but they said.

325
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: Went to Academy Sports this week.

326
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: I had people dming me yesterday morning while they were

327
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 2: on their way to a tailgate scene, showing me their

328
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 2: Academy receipts.

329
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: All this is being passed on, by the way, Thank

330
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: you so much for that.

331
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 2: So it seems that we have figured it out around

332
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: here as an audience, as a late kick family, we

333
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 2: figured it out.

334
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: If it's at tench you need, Academy is the spot.

335
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: If it's a grill, you need Academy Sports and Outdoors

336
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 2: is the spot. Now here's what's exciting for me. It

337
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 2: was that time of decade. This week, I found myself

338
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 2: in need of new clothing. I'm not going to tell

339
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: you what it is, because it'll only make me feel

340
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 2: like a banker or some hot shot CEO, neither of

341
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: which I am, clearly. But I went to Academy dot

342
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 2: Com shockingly easy, and I paid cold hard cash, just

343
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: like you guys do. They don't have a card in

344
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 2: my back pocket yet. That's a clearing of the throat.

345
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 2: That's very conveniently timed. But Academy dot Com very easy.

346
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 2: So if you don't live near an Academy Sports and Outdoors,

347
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 2: that's fine, just hit up the website. But there are

348
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 2: a lot of great tailgating scenes coming. Colin was pulling

349
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 2: up the next two weeks games. I mean, have you

350
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 2: guys looked at this. We're gonna talk more about it Tuesday, obviously,

351
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 2: this weekend and then next weekend. You can make an

352
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 2: entire season out of those two weekends. I am telling you.

353
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 2: I know at least one of you already is being

354
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 2: forced drug to a wedding.

355
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: Get out of it.

356
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: It's not too late. You have plenty of weddings to

357
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 2: go to down the road. You won't have many weekends

358
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: like this, So that's my advice. Get out by any

359
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 2: means necessary, and then head to Academy Sports and Outdoors

360
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 2: because they got stuff you actually need as opposed to

361
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 2: a fall Saturday wedding.

362
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. Colin,

363
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: all right, let's move on.

364
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: How Oh my goodness, I thought I had this later

365
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 2: in the show, but I don't.

366
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 1: Okay, let me clear my eyes.

367
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 2: So we have to talk about what's happening at Clemson

368
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: because they lost to NC State yesterday as a ten

369
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: point favorite. Twenty seven to twenty one is the final.

370
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: And I don't know if these are padlock stats one

371
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 2: hundred percent of the time, but boy, it's close. Prepare yourself.

372
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 2: You have children watching. You may want to escort him

373
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 2: from the room. NC State had thirty one first downs

374
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: to Clemson's ten. NC State ran ninety six plays in

375
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 2: this game. Clemson ran forty nine, so I had stats

376
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 2: in info run the numbers. It turns out that the

377
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 2: Wolfpack ran forty seven more plays than did the Clemson Tigers.

378
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: On what planet did we see that happening? Not this one,

379
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 2: I can assure you. Oh, here's some more violence, total

380
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 2: yardage three eighty six to two fourteen time of possession,

381
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: which is a stat I just threw out to annoy

382
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: the actual stat crowd forty two minutes to eighteen minutes.

383
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: It was a bloodbath. It was ugly.

384
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 2: It really wasn't even as close as the final score indicated.

385
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 2: It's horrific right now to watch Clemson try and operate offensively.

386
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: Congratulations to NC State. And I'm saying this now because

387
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 2: a majority of this time is going to be spent

388
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 2: on Clemson, but congratulations to NC State. They got off

389
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 2: the mat after losing to Mississippi State. That was a

390
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 2: game that was full of turnovers. They rectified the situation.

391
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 2: They ambushed Clemson shouldn't have been an ambush. Everyone knew

392
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 2: it was coming, at least the environment, but there was

393
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 2: no answer from the Tigers. Yesterday got that thing to

394
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 2: overtime but ended up falling short.

395
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 1: Guys, this was clear after Week one.

396
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 2: Some of the stuff that's been happening around college football

397
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 2: has been really chaotic and been really unpredictable. I don't

398
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 2: think this fits that description at all. Remember on this show,

399
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 2: at least when we came out of that Georgia game

400
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: against Clemson and Charlotte. The big talking point for a

401
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 2: lot of people was how will the college Football Playoff

402
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 2: Committee handle a one loss Clemson? And do you remember

403
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 2: the response on this show? It was really succinct. It

404
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 2: was really to the point, and it was essentially asking,

405
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 2: why do we assume they're done losing? We didn't think

406
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 2: they were done losing. There were terminal flaws with the

407
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 2: team that were on display. It wasn't like the offensive

408
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,479
Speaker 2: line was all of a sudden going to rectify it stuff.

409
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 2: It wasn't like speed was all of a sudden going

410
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 2: to magically appear at the wide receiver position. Those things

411
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: are gone for this year and they're not coming back.

412
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: And now very bad news.

413
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: As this show was about to go on the air earlier,

414
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 2: Brian Braze out for the season torn acl So they're

415
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 2: down their top two defensive tackles.

416
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: It's not going to get any easier. I have not

417
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: gotten an.

418
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 2: Update on Will Shipley. It does not look good for

419
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 2: him either. That's a guy that we were very much

420
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 2: looking forward to watching this year. But now, just as

421
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 2: sure as the sun rose this morning, I flipped through

422
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 2: various stations as I'm sitting in an airport terminal.

423
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: And I see the question. I couldn't believe it.

424
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 2: And the question is, theoretically, how would the playoff committee

425
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: handle a two loss Clemson.

426
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: They're not done losing.

427
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 2: As anybody watched this, they're not done losing games. Guys,

428
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 2: forget about the playoff. In fact, that should be a

429
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 2: general rule of thumb for us all in September. Forget

430
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 2: about the playoff. But with Clemson, forget about the playoff.

431
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 2: There are much bigger issues to solve here. You got

432
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 2: to be thinking twenty twenty two. If you guys want

433
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 2: to talk playoff, be my guest, you better be talking

434
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 2: about twenty twenty two with this team. I have never

435
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: heard a more defeated head coach than Dabos Swiney after

436
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,479
Speaker 2: this game yesterday. I know most of you probably have

437
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 2: not listened to his postgame press conference, but if you

438
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 2: have a little sadistic side of you, I do it

439
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 2: because it's my job.

440
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,679
Speaker 1: But if you have a little sadistic side of you,

441
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: go listen.

442
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 2: He sounds so somber because he knows there's no answer

443
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 2: for this particular team this year.

444
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:35,959
Speaker 1: There's no answer.

445
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 2: They'll give it all they got. I don't doubt they'll

446
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: keep fighting. They fought yesterday. They're just not good enough.

447
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 2: That's something you rarely say about a team this talented,

448
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 2: but they're just not good enough. Which brings me back

449
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 2: to a phrase that we have used several times on

450
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: this show. We talked about it in the preseason about Clemson,

451
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 2: and it is consequences of success. Only a few programs

452
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 2: get the privilege of suffering the consequences of success, but

453
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,719
Speaker 2: Clemson's one of them. Now they're still relatively new to this,

454
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: but this is why any talk about comparing anyone to

455
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 2: Nick Saban and this sport is always so laughable.

456
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: And I know Dabbo didn't do it.

457
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 2: Himself, but there were some foolish people out there a

458
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 2: couple of years ago, because Clemson had beaten them twice,

459
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 2: that started to throw out the well head coach power rankings.

460
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 2: Don't we have to put Dabbo ahead of Nick Saban? Well,

461
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 2: no you don't, because they haven't even made it through

462
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 2: the first cycle of success yet. Now they found out

463
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: about the cycle, or they're finding out that's not past tense,

464
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 2: that's present tense. They're finding out about the cycle. There

465
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 2: is so much crap that falls in your lap. That

466
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 2: only happens when you've been to the mountaintop. You can't

467
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 2: even imagine it. I've listened to people talk about it before.

468
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 2: You don't even have to be a college football coach.

469
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 1: You could be.

470
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 2: Running, for all I care, you could be running a

471
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 2: bottler distributor. When you've made it to the top, there

472
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 2: are things you have to have and things you have

473
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 2: to manage that you're ill equipped to manage because you've

474
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 2: never been there before and you don't know what to do.

475
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: Dablos Twinny doesn't know what to do right now.

476
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 2: He would never say that publicly, but I'm telling you

477
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 2: there was a loss look in his eye, and there's

478
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 2: a lost look in this program's eyes right now now.

479
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 2: You talk to Clemson fans, because I talked to several

480
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 2: of them today on my flight home, and there was

481
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: some brutal honesty.

482
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: I think there's a recognition if.

483
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 2: They look in the mirror up there now, they're not

484
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 2: going to listen to outsider say it.

485
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: And that's all well and good.

486
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 2: I get it, But internally, one Clemson fan to another,

487
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 2: I think you guys are looking at your coaching staff

488
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 2: and you're saying, we're not good enough, and you're not

489
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 2: especially offensively, you're not good enough. You're looking and this

490
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 2: is where Rubber is going to meet the row with

491
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 2: Dablos Wwinny. You're looking at the standards and practices that

492
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 2: go into the way he chooses to run the Clemson program.

493
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 2: You're never gonna hear me doubt the culture they've built

494
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 2: up there. It is phenomenal. They've got a process.

495
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: It works.

496
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 2: But the thing about the process is the best organizations

497
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 2: they do have established culture. But they've got culture and

498
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 2: they've got flow. And by flow I mean circulation. You've

499
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 2: got to have a steady stream of new people and

500
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: ideas and adjustments approaches. Notice I didn't say philosophy. You're

501
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 2: not changing the core philosophy. It got you there.

502
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: You keep that. You keep the.

503
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 2: Christmas tree, but you better trim it. You're got to

504
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 2: change some ornaments here and there. The sport never sits still.

505
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 2: As long as the sport is not going to sit still,

506
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 2: you cannot sit still. And when it comes to that

507
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 2: whole comparative analysis fill in the blank versus Nick Saban.

508
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 2: Nick Saban has redefined and reconstructed his entire program and

509
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 2: never left the pole position over the past decade. While

510
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 2: he did it, that's what makes him the greatest of

511
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 2: all time. He had had the situation Nick Saban has

512
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: not lost his season opener and then gone on the

513
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: road and lost to Mississippi State. That doesn't happen. That

514
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 2: never happens with them. That is why that whole conversation

515
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 2: I never took part in. It's unfair to compare anyone

516
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 2: to him, So I'm not going to spend a majority

517
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 2: of the show doing that. I'm just saying I never

518
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 2: bought into that and got ridiculed for it, because how can.

519
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 1: You deny that Dabo just beat him.

520
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 2: They did, that made him, and that made clumbs In

521
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 2: the best team in that calendar year.

522
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: Best coach, best program.

523
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 2: That's so much more broad, that's so much more forty

524
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 2: fifty thousand feet.

525
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: So what are they gonna do?

526
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 2: I don't know what they're gonna do this year, but

527
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 2: I'll tell you one thing I am very fascinated to

528
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 2: watch about the Clumbs and Tigers is if Dablos twenty

529
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 2: decides to adjust his approach to the transfer portal because

530
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 2: they don't traffick in it right now, they have kids

531
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 2: leave because of it. But they don't take transfers, and

532
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 2: he talked about that over the summer.

533
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: He didn't slam the door on it.

534
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 2: I think he's smart, not too because I think they're

535
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: gonna have to get a little bit more creative because

536
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 2: they're very selective in the recruiting process, extremely selective. I

537
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 2: think they've got a traffic in the transfer portal. If

538
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 2: your competition's doing it, I'm telling you you've got to

539
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 2: have athletes. You have athletes to go eight and four,

540
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 2: well at least to the caliber that we're talking about,

541
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 2: but you better have him if you want to win championships.

542
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 2: Clemson has never won one without them. I'll tell you

543
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 2: the other thing to watch. I don't know because I'm

544
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 2: not in their locker room, but the one thing that

545
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 2: you always have to watch when you've been to the mountaintop.

546
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: I've said this before, I'll say it one more time.

547
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: You watch those Clemson teams in twenty fifteen and twenty sixteen, and.

548
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 2: They were a locker room full of what can I

549
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 2: do for Clemson minded guys, and then guys started coming

550
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 2: to Clemson from all over the country, and that's great,

551
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 2: That's exactly how I'd run Clemson if I were there,

552
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 2: but you cannot help. As long as you have humans

553
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 2: coming in, you cannot help but be successful. Guys look

554
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: at the success and then they start thinking, what can

555
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: Clemson do for me? It's natural human nature. You're trying

556
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 2: to basically rewire people, and so you never know what

557
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 2: that means. You never know what it means in a

558
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 2: one possession game. You never know the difference when you

559
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: get in the foxhole. You never know what that means

560
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: for locker room chemistry.

561
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: You just know that people start talking about that kind

562
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: of stuff when you've lost games.

563
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 2: Well, now they've lost a couple of games, so we'll

564
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 2: see where they go because they still got a long

565
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 2: road ahead of them. This is by no means done.

566
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: They may not be done losing this year. All right,

567
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 2: let's move it on Notre Dame yesterday. Even want to

568
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: see this final score. This is a bizarre situation for me.

569
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 2: Here's your endpoint, Colin. Notre Dame beat Wisconsin yesterday. So

570
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 2: that much we know. Forty one thirteen is what a

571
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 2: lot of you didn't know. If you were like me

572
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: and you were kind of trying to keep eyes on

573
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 2: the game. But I'm at another game. I looked at

574
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 2: that screen early fourth quarter and Wisconsin was I had

575
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: thirteen to ten. Yes, people, Notre Dame in a game

576
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 2: they won forty one to thirteen, trailed thirteen to ten

577
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter.

578
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: So how does that happen? Well, it went.

579
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 2: From a situation where I told a buddy they could

580
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 2: play to Wednesday and not score thirty five to Notre

581
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 2: Dame getting thirty one in the fourth quarter alone.

582
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 1: They had twenty one non offensive points in the fourth quarter.

583
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: That's how it happened.

584
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 2: By the way, Graham Mertz quarterback for Wisconsin, a lot

585
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 2: of you chanted for him to be blunt. A lot

586
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 2: of folks in Wisconsin acted the same way. Well not

587
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 2: quite to this degree, but they had the same mentality

588
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 2: that a lot of our brethren in Oklahoma do today.

589
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: They wanted the backup. Well, they got him.

590
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 2: They got him, and now four more interceptions and a

591
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 2: lost fumble yesterday later, they've got a second loss on

592
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 2: their plate. Where again it looks in a box score

593
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 2: like they outplayed an opponent, just like it looked in

594
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 2: Week one against Penn State. And yet you go to

595
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 2: that turnover margin and boom, there goes the game.

596
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 1: Because you can't.

597
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 2: Give the other team the ball multiple times in what

598
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 2: is already going to be a competitive environment and expect

599
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 2: to win.

600
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 1: And so it turns out that Paul.

601
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 2: Chris knew what he was doing all along, shocking though

602
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 2: it may be when he was running Jack Cone out there.

603
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,719
Speaker 2: So you don't have to pay the price for that,

604
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 2: is my point. He does, you don't have to sit

605
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 2: there and answer questions about it. He does. That's why

606
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 2: I head coaches are a lot more deliberate with those

607
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: position changes. That's why Lencoln Riley it's a lot more

608
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 2: deliberate with how he's hands Caleb Williams and Spencer Rattler.

609
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 2: I'll talk about that in due time. Don't worry.

610
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: But this was a classic misleading final.

611
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 2: I'm always careful when I talk like this because people

612
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 2: hear what you don't say. Notre Dame deserves to win

613
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 2: the game. You can't take the game away from them.

614
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,199
Speaker 2: It's a big win for Brian Kelly. They found a

615
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 2: way again. They're still undefeated. Great for Notre Dame. Fight on,

616
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 2: fight on, fight on, et cetera. But if you want

617
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 2: to know how misleading the final is being interpreted as,

618
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,120
Speaker 2: let me read you this week's odds Notre Dame forty

619
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 2: one thirteen.

620
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 1: Keep that in mind.

621
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 2: Cincinnati has opened as a favorite at Notre Dame this Saturday.

622
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 2: Wisconsin is favored against Michigan this Saturday. So you think

623
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 2: to yourself, Wisconsin just got blown out Michigan's undefeated.

624
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: Certainly they're not gonna be favored over them. Yeah they are.

625
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 2: If you got a turnover field result, yeah they are.

626
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 2: Vegas doesn't care. I tried to teach you all about turnovers.

627
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 2: Vegas doesn't care about them. They don't view that as

628
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 2: any more predictive than a tarot card reading. They do

629
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 2: not care. They will keep throwing that stuff out all

630
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 2: day long. Notre Dame, though, playing host to Cincinnati. That's

631
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,919
Speaker 2: a super Bowl for one team. I don't know how

632
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 2: the Irish retreating, and that's a super Bowl for one team.

633
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 2: Hey Marcus Freeman though, let me say something positive now.

634
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 2: Marcus Freeman was to me the biggest assistant coach hire

635
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 2: in the offseason, what colin the summer, and he's at

636
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 2: Notre Dame.

637
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: He is the defensive coordinator there.

638
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 2: By way of Cincinnati, they have been lighting on fire.

639
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 2: I think they are something like five of thirty on

640
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 2: third downs. That's what they have held their last two

641
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,239
Speaker 2: opponents to, five of thirty on third down. That'll win

642
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,479
Speaker 2: you a lot of ballgames. So you can look at

643
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 2: these results and you could say, oh, Notre Dame's just

644
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 2: buy in time right now, They'll eventually get their offense right.

645
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 2: I would be one to believe in that and buy

646
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 2: into it. I just don't know what the maximum potential

647
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 2: here is, even with the healthy Jack Cone. I don't

648
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 2: know what the maximum potential is because their offensive line's

649
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 2: not good. It's just not good right now, and he

650
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 2: does not have time to operate. And here's the shame.

651
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 2: The shame is you look in the backfield, you look

652
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 2: at wide receiver, you look tied end. There are weapons

653
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 2: on this team that are going to waste at the

654
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 2: moment because there's not enough time to really utilize them.

655
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 2: And it's a shame. I don't know how much they

656
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: can rectify there over the course of the rest of

657
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 2: the year.

658
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: But Notre Dame is undefeated.

659
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: So by no means should anyone out there be frowning

660
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: because you could be in Florida State's position. You know,

661
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 2: you could be in a position where there's roles are

662
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 2: reversed and that four and o's turned upside down. Don't

663
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 2: want that. But Cincinnati is on deck for Notre Dame,

664
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 2: Michigan is on deck for Wisconsin. Part of a loaded

665
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 2: weekend in college football coming up, I mean loaded. Oh

666
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 2: imagine having planned Saturday. Couldn't be me, Colin, couldn't be me. Okay,

667
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 2: I've got so many more games to get to. We're

668
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 2: going to rapid fire here. Let's head down to the SEC.

669
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: Several more takeaways here. LSU got it done. I mean,

670
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 2: hats off, they got it done. This stuff's not easy.

671
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 2: It is not easy to win football games on the road.

672
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 2: LSU was up twenty eight to ten comfortably. They held

673
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 2: on at Mississippi State to win twenty eight to twenty five.

674
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 2: This is a g that's probably going to be forgotten

675
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 2: a little ways down the road. Don't forget it. I

676
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: don't know how the rest of the season is going

677
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: to play out for LSU. But had they lost this game,

678
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 2: it was going to be really bad down there. I mean,

679
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 2: like changes coming inevitably bad. And they won the game.

680
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 2: So because they won it, everyone will forget. I don't

681
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,239
Speaker 2: forget that kind of stuff because I remember what we

682
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: were saying going into the weekend, and I meant every

683
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 2: word of it.

684
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: So big win.

685
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 2: Hats off to ed Ors, Round, hats off to his staff.

686
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 2: It was not an easy place to play by any stretch,

687
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: but twenty eight to ten became twenty eight to twenty

688
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 2: five really quickly there in the fourth quarter. They have

689
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 2: some things to correct, but man, our assessment on this

690
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 2: game was spot on, Really proud of the way the

691
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 2: model responded. They had a three point we had a

692
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 2: three point LSU win. LSU wins by three. And I

693
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 2: remember talking about the game last week, and the reason

694
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 2: there was so much trepidation in my voice about picking

695
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: LSU is because I knew I couldn't count on the

696
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 2: run game, and that was dead on the money. At

697
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 2: no point this year will you be able to count

698
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,239
Speaker 2: on LSU running the ball. Yesterday, twenty seven times they

699
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 2: tried to run it, they put sixty three yards up.

700
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 2: That is abysmal. That is an abysmal rushing performance. And

701
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,959
Speaker 2: it was up to Max Johnson and it was up

702
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 2: to their defense and they got it done. And there

703
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 2: are portions of that defense that are improving. So again,

704
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 2: give credit where it's due. Give Max Johnson credit where

705
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 2: it's due. Mississippi State outrushed them. That's not necessarily something

706
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 2: I thought I was going to be saying. But it's

707
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: an LSU win and that's all it counts right now.

708
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 2: So they survive and they go back home to face Auburn.

709
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 2: Now here's something to keep in mind for this week.

710
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 2: LSU won the game, but their defense was on the

711
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 2: field eighty eight plays. Auburn is in wounded animal mode.

712
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 2: They had their pride tested this past weekend. They already

713
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 2: came off a loss. They almost got beat by Georgia

714
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: Southern or Georgia State. Some of you would argue they

715
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 2: did kind of an Arkansas CIRCA twenty twenty protocol there

716
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: at Jorday Hair Stadium. Far be it for me to

717
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 2: question the SEC officiating crews, though. But now Auburn's going

718
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 2: to go on the road, and that's a team that

719
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 2: also LSU's not gonna be able to run ball on

720
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 2: and so LSU, unless they have a very efficient passing attack,

721
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,479
Speaker 2: you're gonna have some short series that put your defense

722
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 2: back out on the field, and that eighty eight plays

723
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 2: defensed the week before could come into play Saturday. Keep

724
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 2: an eye on that. Tennessee pushed Florida for a little while,

725
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 2: but in the end it was Florida thirty eight Tennessee fourteen.

726
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 2: The Xbox crowd was loud during this game, very loud.

727
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: And here's what the Xbox crowd said. The Xbox crowd

728
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 2: looked at Tennessee and Florida and they said, oh, it's

729
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 2: a three point game, it's halftime. What's wrong with Florida.

730
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: Nothing is wrong with Florida. It's not Xbox friend. These

731
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 2: are real humans that are seven days removed from playing

732
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 2: the University of Alabama.

733
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: Do you know what that does to most teams? Do

734
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: you know what most.

735
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 2: Teams look like the week after they played Bama? So

736
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 2: let me get this straight. You're leading a team that

737
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 2: is clearly putting everything and then some they have in

738
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,479
Speaker 2: the barrel into taking you down. Remember the Shoe game

739
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 2: last year for reference. If you've forgotten, and then you

740
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 2: pull away in the second half. The Xbox crowd has

741
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 2: no clue. These games last four quarters, by the way,

742
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 2: and so in the end it's thirty eight to fourteen.

743
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 2: Florida pitches a shutout in the second half. It's not

744
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 2: easy to shut out this Tennessee offense. It may be

745
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: not the biggest challenge in the world to beat the team,

746
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 2: it's not easy to shut him out, and Florida did that.

747
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,719
Speaker 2: Emery Jones, I think played the best game of his season.

748
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 2: His play continues to get better. The offensive line paved

749
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 2: the way for well over three hundred and I think

750
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 2: thirty someeonin yards rushing.

751
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: So it was a really good performance.

752
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 2: I mean I looked at it and then I compared

753
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 2: it to what some of my Florida buddies were saying

754
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 2: about the game.

755
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: I thought we watched two different games.

756
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: No, it was a perfect No one plays perfect ever,

757
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 2: much less the week after they almost beat Bama, Like,

758
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 2: do you know what this should have looked like?

759
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: This should have looked like you chewing.

760
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: Your nails to the nub, sweating out a last minute victory.

761
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 2: That's really what it should have looked like, and instead

762
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 2: you ran away. Good for Florida. They're headed to Kentucky

763
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 2: this week lined open around a touchdown. It's up to

764
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 2: eight and a half right now. Gators favored in Lexington

765
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 2: game on part of a loaded slate this week in

766
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 2: the SEC.

767
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 1: This is gonna get somber really quick. Oh boy.

768
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,879
Speaker 2: All right, Well I got chewed out because I didn't

769
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 2: talk Georgia on the.

770
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: Show last week. So quick recap it.

771
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 2: Last week Georgia beat South Carolina. Well, let's talk about it.

772
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 2: I've got one of the more violent stats I will

773
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 2: ever read to you. Georgia sixty two Vandy.

774
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: Nothing.

775
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,760
Speaker 2: That's not even the violent stat, that's just the score.

776
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 2: The Model loved Georgia.

777
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: In this game.

778
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 2: On our Friday Night lines Instagram live chat, I told

779
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 2: you guys. One of you asked, what do you think

780
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 2: about the Georgia game. I said, I'm not touching this,

781
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 2: but I will tell you the model. One of the

782
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 2: strongest leans of the entire week was Georgia minus thirty

783
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 2: five and a half. I just don't lay five touchdowns

784
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 2: in conference games. Just doesn't make sense to me. And

785
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 2: then Georgia proceeded to cover in one quarter, and so

786
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 2: I said, well, good for Georgia. Now I stopped watching

787
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 2: after that. I had other things to attend to. But

788
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 2: it got way worse. So Vandy had seventy seven total

789
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,399
Speaker 2: yards of offense in this game. They didn't get close

790
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 2: to triple digits. Let me tell you how bad this was.

791
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 2: Are you ready for this now. I want whatever you're

792
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,439
Speaker 2: doing to just stop for a second because I'm gonna

793
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 2: read something and if you just let it blend in

794
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 2: with all the other words coming out of my mouth,

795
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 2: you may not realize what I've just said. So let's

796
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 2: pause whatever you do and stop washing the dishes, turn

797
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 2: the radio.

798
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: Down, listen to this. This is a conference game.

799
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 2: By the way, Georgia had more guys run for a

800
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 2: touchdown than Vanderbilt had first downs.

801
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 1: Let's pause, Let's let it sizzle.

802
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 2: In an SEC football game, Georgia had more players run

803
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 2: for a touchdown than Vandy had total first downs. For

804
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 2: the record, that is a five to four. Vandy had

805
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 2: four first downs in the entire game. So much for

806
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 2: home field advantage. They being Georgia, they welcome in Arkansas Saturday,

807
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,879
Speaker 2: nineteen and a half point favorites right now. A lot

808
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 2: of you out there are looking at these Bama and

809
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,760
Speaker 2: Georgia spreads really excited to take those points.

810
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 1: Okay, what do we have in here? Do we have

811
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: someone who needs to get banned? Yes we do.

812
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 2: Put user in time out. I'll police the chat if

813
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 2: no one else will. How about Alabama sixty three Southern

814
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,800
Speaker 2: miss fourteen and went take away anything from this. Probably not.

815
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 2: You probably didn't watch the game. Alabama, in case you

816
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 2: haven't noticed, has used an Ohio State transfer receiver better

817
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 2: than Ohio State's using their own receivers that this guy

818
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 2: presumably left because of because he couldn't get on the

819
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 2: field enough. So Jamison Williams is a race horse. He

820
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,760
Speaker 2: runs like a three nine forty. He's insane to watch.

821
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 2: Several times last night, these poor kiss from Southern miss

822
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 2: had decent angles, I mean trying really hard, and it

823
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 2: just looked like a carnival game. It looked like the

824
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 2: rims were way too tight. There was no way they

825
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 2: were gonna make the shot. So Jamison Williams does what

826
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 2: if you're watching on YouTube, he's doing here right now?

827
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: Ugly?

828
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 2: Okay, well I can't watch this the appearance of some

829
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 2: of those players may be watching. But man, how about

830
00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 2: Julia Billingsley the sudden re emergence. It's like to Flanderson

831
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 2: coming back from Costa Rica. Jalil Billingsley has made a

832
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 2: sudden and mysterious reappearance. The only difference is Bama fans

833
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 2: are not distraught. They are very happy to see him

834
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: back in Nick Sabe and just kind of ho humming

835
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,240
Speaker 2: his way through the first month of the season.

836
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 1: We play a.

837
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 2: Top twenty team to open. I'll probably use it to

838
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 2: teach a player a lesson.

839
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: Well. Jalil billings Ley's back now and cam Lato has

840
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 1: been feeling.

841
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 2: Them very well too, So they got two legitimate receiver options.

842
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 2: Cam Latou's a former blindbacker by the way, they just repurposed.

843
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 2: And so now Alabama welcomes in Old Miss. And Alabama

844
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 2: opened as a big favorite. They opened at twenty at

845
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 2: circa that No, none of you got down money on

846
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 2: Ole Miss plus twenty. Don't lie and say you did.

847
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 2: But even now Old Miss is available plus fifteen and

848
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,759
Speaker 2: a half sixteen something like that. You're gonna go for it.

849
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 2: We're gonna predict the game Tuesday. I'm not telling you

850
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 2: anything right now. You're gonna go for it, be my guest.

851
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 2: How about Kentucky. Kentucky was minus three turnovers and they

852
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 2: still beat South Carolina in WILLIAMS.

853
00:37:58,400 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 1: Brice Stadium sixteen to ten.

854
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 2: It is hard to comprehend when I'm about to tell

855
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 2: you how about South Carolina.

856
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 1: You're at home in a night game.

857
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 2: You are plus three turnovers and you have three drives

858
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: start in plus territory and you hang ten on the board.

859
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 2: A ten spot could have done better. Would hope that

860
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,720
Speaker 2: they would do better, but they did not. It's also

861
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 2: hard to comprehend that Kentucky is four and oh despite

862
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 2: the fact that they're minus nine in turnovers on the year.

863
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 1: None of this makes sense. None of what I just

864
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 1: said makes sense. But yet that's where we are.

865
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 2: And so Kentucky has found their way despite again turnover

866
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 2: margins that indicate they shouldn't be fighting their way, and

867
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 2: they've bought themselves time. And each week you get a

868
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 2: little bit more install you get a little bit more

869
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 2: gelling and rhythm together. And now their biggest test of

870
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 2: the season so far arrive Saturday when the Kentucky Wildcats

871
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 2: welcome in the Florida Gators. If you want to see

872
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,919
Speaker 2: stuff really get turned on its ear, have Kentucky beat

873
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 2: Florida Saturday, because that'd be the first really big one

874
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 2: down here. Have them beat Florida Saturday, and then we

875
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 2: can start talking about the SEC East upheaval. That's not

876
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,800
Speaker 2: a prediction, that was just a mere statement, all right. Lastly,

877
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 2: I wanted to go around the rest of the country. Yeah,

878
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 2: as you guys know, I can see in the chat

879
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 2: there's a lot we haven't talked about yet. It's coming

880
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 2: right now, probably Oklahoma. What's happening in Norman. Well, I'll

881
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,240
Speaker 2: tell you what's happening. A four and oh team sixteen

882
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 2: to thirteen. They beat West Virginia yesterday. Stop torturing yourselves.

883
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 2: Stop that you're holding yourselves to a standard that you

884
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 2: developed based on preseason culture and preseason magazine preview magazine culture,

885
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 2: and you are not that right now, the Oklahoma Sooners

886
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 2: are not what preview magazine season told you they would be.

887
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 2: Spencer Rattler is not what preview magazine season told you

888
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 2: he would be. It's okay, I mean it's still four

889
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 2: and oh again. Could be a lot worse out there.

890
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: Now. Are they perfect? No?

891
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 2: I got forty seven flaws I could point out right now.

892
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 2: They cannot run the ball two yards per carry. Last

893
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 2: night offensive line well below Oklahoma standards. He got the

894
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 2: student section asking for the backup quarterback in less than

895
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,839
Speaker 2: friendly terms to be inserted. Let me address that. By

896
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 2: the way, if you didn't see it last night, it

897
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 2: was crazy. Hats off to the crew there at ABC.

898
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 2: I think Fowler and Kirk Herb Street just flat out said,

899
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 2: in case you guys can't hear this, they're chanting we

900
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 2: want Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams was the top quarterback in

901
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 2: the country last year. He is the backup as of

902
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 2: this hour to Spencer Rattler, your preseason Heisman favorite, yours,

903
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 2: not mine.

904
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 1: We didn't necessarily like that all that much. Here.

905
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,799
Speaker 2: What do I think about the fans booing? I got

906
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 2: asked that a lot. What did I think about the

907
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 2: fans chanting for Caleb Williams. Well, a couple of things

908
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,439
Speaker 2: can be true, to be honest with you, and I'm

909
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 2: not endorsing the first thing that's about to come out

910
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 2: of my mouth. Please understand, it's just theoretically these two

911
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 2: things could be true. It could be true that Caleb

912
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 2: Williams gives you a better chance to win. I don't

913
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 2: think that, because if I did, I think Lincoln Riley

914
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 2: would have him in the game.

915
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 1: But just I'll humor you, that could be true.

916
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 2: It's still under no circumstance makes it acceptable or even

917
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 2: smart to chant it at a home game. Do you

918
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 2: understand you have recruits in the building. This was a

919
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 2: big recruiting weekend for Oklahoma. Me and Wolfong spent like

920
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 2: ten minutes talking about this on whip around last week.

921
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,840
Speaker 2: Do you know what I would do to this morning?

922
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,280
Speaker 2: If I were a rival coach and I was recruiting

923
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 2: against Oklahoma, I would say, Hey, at one time, Spencer

924
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 2: Ratler was you. He was sitting in those stands, they

925
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 2: were wooing him. All those fans wanted him there. They're

926
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,720
Speaker 2: four and zero and look at they're treating him like trash.

927
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 2: Do you want to go there? We never do that.

928
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 2: You can go watch all our tape. Our fans have

929
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 2: never chanted for backups, They never booed our players, and

930
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 2: in most cases that's true. Like what do you guys doing?

931
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 2: I understand the frustration. I have told you. I think

932
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 2: Rattler is overhyped as a quarterback. I don't think the

933
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 2: guy is an alpha leader by any stretch of the imagination.

934
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 2: We have been very blunt about our assessment of Spencer Ratler,

935
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 2: having said that it's ludicrous to handle it like that.

936
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 1: It's just stupid. It's stupid to do it. You don't

937
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 1: help anything I can tell you right now.

938
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,879
Speaker 2: Lincoln Riley probably takes a step back and is less

939
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 2: inclined to put the backup. In the last thing an

940
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 2: he head coach wants is an announcer to say, well,

941
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 2: the fans chanting for it, and now Lincoln has given

942
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 2: it to him.

943
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: Here comes Caleb Williams.

944
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 2: The second Caleb Williams gives Oklahoma the best chance to

945
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 2: win a football game will be the second U see

946
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams in the football game. What you don't want

947
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 2: is a Graham Mertz two point zero where you got

948
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams in there. He's showing you flashes. Oh there's

949
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 2: an interception, showing you more flashes, a couple of more turnovers.

950
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 2: Because guess what you can't do after that? You can't

951
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 2: turn back to Spencer Ratler. He's probably long since thrown

952
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 2: up the deuces. He's gone. Can't do that. So let's

953
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 2: just be careful here still four and oh you never know.

954
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 2: With teams as talented as Oklahoma, stranger things have happened

955
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 2: in the past.

956
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: You could find a groove, you could find another gear.

957
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 2: They got Texas in two weeks, by the way, well

958
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,240
Speaker 2: be a renaissance to her destination Texas. Speaking of the Horns,

959
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 2: did they stop scoring yet? Seventy to thirty five was

960
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,280
Speaker 2: the final. Yesterday, Texas over Texas Tech. The big question

961
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 2: is can the Red Raiders play defense. I'm happy to

962
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 2: report we have an answer. Nope, they cannot. These stats

963
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 2: are impressive depending on one perspective, or alarming depending on

964
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 2: the other. Casey Thompson has led Texas to points on

965
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 2: twenty of his last twenty three drives. That includes nineteen

966
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 2: touchdowns in his last twenty three drives. Now it was

967
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 2: against Food, Rice and Texas Tech. I don't care if

968
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 2: you did it against Air. That's pretty impressive. That was

969
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 2: by Chip Brown. By the way he looked that up.

970
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 2: I did not look that up to. Dad didn't have

971
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,959
Speaker 2: time over at Horns twenty four to seven. So yes,

972
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 2: in Casey, we trust, certainly that's the mood tracker. We

973
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 2: have not updated it out in Austin. They have not

974
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 2: attempted a punt in like two weeks. They didn't even

975
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 2: attempt to punt yesterday. Three hundred and thirty six yards

976
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 2: on the ground too. This was not a whole bunch

977
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 2: of points where it's just bomb away, bomb away, bomb away.

978
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 2: They did enough of that they could have run all

979
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:08,800
Speaker 2: the way to love it if they wanted to yesterday.

980
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 2: Texas is a four point favorite this week against Texas Christian.

981
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 2: TCU is in a bad way. They lost on rest

982
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 2: yesterday to at the hands of SMU. The old Skillett game.

983
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 2: Out there, Texas is either going to win that thing

984
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 2: by three touchdowns or get upset this week. And I'm

985
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,280
Speaker 2: not quite sure which one it is. But that four

986
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 2: I don't think will be a consequential number. I think

987
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 2: it's just kind of an aggregation of all the model runs.

988
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's gonna be a wild variation and final

989
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 2: out there. But Texas two weeks away from Red River,

990
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 2: they are squarely in the Big twelve championship race.

991
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:44,840
Speaker 1: Obviously they got TCU.

992
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:49,880
Speaker 2: Saturday, Baylor beat a team from ames Iowa that I

993
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 2: used to call Iowa State, but I don't recognize the

994
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:53,479
Speaker 2: play as of late.

995
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: Am I upset about it?

996
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, very upset about it because I keep looking and

997
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,800
Speaker 2: I keep saying, well, let's see Iowa State four sixty

998
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 2: nine to two eighty two, outgained him big time.

999
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 1: Iowa State.

1000
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,280
Speaker 2: Let's see two sixty three through the air, two sixteen

1001
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 2: on the ground.

1002
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,240
Speaker 1: Really good day. Uh oh.

1003
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,720
Speaker 2: Special teams issues again. Uh oh, coverage unit bad again.

1004
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 2: This was what cost Iowa State down the stretch last

1005
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 2: year in the Big Twelve championship game. It cost him,

1006
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 2: and it cost him again, and now Baylor beats him

1007
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 2: thirty one to twenty nine.

1008
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 1: Iowa State.

1009
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 2: We're not even talking postseason at this point. It is

1010
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 2: important to note that the Big Twelve could end up

1011
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,720
Speaker 2: being a mess. Baylor is four and oh so Baylor

1012
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 2: is obviously still perfect. I think that when you have

1013
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 2: one conference loss, obviously you still consider yourself in that

1014
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:40,439
Speaker 2: conference race.

1015
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: I don't know that anyone's going undefeated out here.

1016
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:47,919
Speaker 2: I don't know that for the conference purposes, you're gonna

1017
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 2: have a situation where it's very clear cut until the

1018
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 2: very end. And so hang on, just hang on for

1019
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 2: one more Wilson Phillips We gotta go Wilson Phillips mode.

1020
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,319
Speaker 2: That's the new mood tracker. Hold on for one more

1021
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,880
Speaker 2: day at Iowa State or one more game. But in

1022
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 2: the meantime, some higher levels of execution would be nice.

1023
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech Happy times, Happy times on the flats. Georgia

1024
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 2: Tech forty five, North Carolina twenty two. We do have

1025
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 2: a padlock stat in this game, and here it is.

1026
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 2: The padlock stat is North Carolina had one point eight

1027
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 2: yards per carry yesterday.

1028
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 1: That's not going to get it done. Now.

1029
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 2: That's disappointing because we looked at their run game at

1030
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 2: the beginning of the year and I thought with the

1031
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 2: additions they made and the portal ty chandler and whatnot,

1032
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 2: I thought they would be able to perform a lot

1033
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 2: better than they have.

1034
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: They haven't.

1035
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,839
Speaker 2: But there is good news on the other side, and

1036
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 2: that is Jeff Simms. Welcome back, Jeff Simms. How about

1037
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,280
Speaker 2: ten of thirteen through the air, one hundred and twelve yards,

1038
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 2: ten runs for one hundred and twenty eight on the ground,

1039
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 2: three touchdowns. Jeff Sims once again QB one. There at

1040
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech, the turn did not happen this week. I

1041
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,879
Speaker 2: was talking to some people with Georgia Tech this past

1042
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 2: week and it was about that very thing.

1043
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 1: They were coming off.

1044
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 2: Remember the close loss against Clemson, and no one's ready

1045
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 2: to ignore that you've turned a corner until you win

1046
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,880
Speaker 2: a game. Well, there was a feeling there that they

1047
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 2: had already turned the corner. They happened to lose a

1048
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 2: game last week, but they have seen some of those

1049
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 2: internal telltale signs that make them believe they've turned the corner.

1050
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 2: I share that opinion. I'm not sitting here telling you

1051
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 2: watch out. They'll probably meet you in Charlotte in a

1052
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 2: couple of months, But I am telling you, whatever the

1053
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 2: low point was for Georgia Tech football, I think it's

1054
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 2: in the rearview mirror, and I think that as a program,

1055
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 2: they are trending up now. This is a huge win

1056
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 2: for them, a huge win. It is a build on win,

1057
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 2: and so congratulations to Jeff Collins and company. I don't

1058
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 2: think they're done making noise this season. Michigan won one

1059
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 2: of the more boring games in the history college football yesterday,

1060
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 2: twenty to thirteen was the final Classics survive in advance mode.

1061
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 1: That's about all you can say about it.

1062
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 2: However, if you told me Michigan was only going to

1063
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 2: have one hundred and twelve yards on the ground, I

1064
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,280
Speaker 2: would have thought upset. And it was twenty to thirteen.

1065
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 2: The spread here was nearly three touchdowns, so Rutgers did cover.

1066
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:02,839
Speaker 2: They outscored Michigan ten zip in the second half, and

1067
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 2: yet still Michigan found a way. So I'll credit him

1068
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,120
Speaker 2: for that. If anything, it makes me respect Rutgers a

1069
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,959
Speaker 2: little bit more. But this week Rutgers welcomes in Ohio State.

1070
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 2: They got a shot there, obviously, I mean, they got

1071
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 2: a shot to do something that you don't expect them

1072
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 2: to do. But Michigan undefeated Michigan. This doesn't make sense

1073
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 2: to a lot of you. Michigan is going to Wisconsin,

1074
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 2: and Wisconsin's favored in the game, and again, I think

1075
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,360
Speaker 2: a lot of folks are gonna jump on Michigan.

1076
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 1: That's fine. Just be careful.

1077
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 2: Turnovers are not always forward thinking in nature, so just

1078
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 2: be careful there. The last two I wanted to hit on.

1079
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 2: Michigan State beat Nebraska. A lot of you may not

1080
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 2: care about this, twenty three to twenty in overtime. This

1081
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,279
Speaker 2: is a very big win because it was such a

1082
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 2: huge letdown spot for a program that's not established yet.

1083
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 1: Michigan State just thrashed Miami last week.

1084
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 2: So this is a game that you would expect a

1085
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:57,799
Speaker 2: less experienced, you know, less together established product to come

1086
00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 2: home and flop in. And they didn't play perfectly by

1087
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 2: any stretch, but the line was only five on the

1088
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 2: game and Michigan State ends up winning twenty three to

1089
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 2: twenty in overtime, huge loss. On paper, this is a

1090
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 2: game they absolutely should lose. Listen to this twenty eight

1091
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 2: to twelve. They lost the first down edge, they were

1092
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 2: out gained by nearly two hundred, but they had a

1093
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 2: punt return late the hidden yardage factor came into play

1094
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,879
Speaker 2: and then they won the game. They the Michigan State

1095
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 2: Spartans are still perfect. And lastly, I don't have much

1096
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 2: to say about it, but Oregon State thrashed Southern Cal

1097
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 2: yesterday and I had like three or four of you

1098
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 2: asked me to talk about that.

1099
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: Congratulations to Oregon State.

1100
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 2: Congratulations to the Beavers for thoroughly dismanting Southern. Dismantling Southern Cal.

1101
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 2: I've spoken my piece on that game.

1102
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 1: Boy.

1103
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 2: We got a loaded week coming up. Okay, two things

1104
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 2: we need to announce right now. The first thing I

1105
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:53,719
Speaker 2: need to announce, and I don't even know what order

1106
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,279
Speaker 2: I put it in, So we're gonna go renaissance to

1107
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:59,600
Speaker 2: her first. Last week, we were in Arlington, and that's

1108
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 2: all well and good, but it was a neutral site location,

1109
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 2: and you know how much we believe in sticking to

1110
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 2: on campus sites.

1111
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:06,919
Speaker 1: Well that's not a problem this.

1112
00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 2: Week because we've got a plethora. And you know how

1113
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 2: rarely I use that word, a plethora. It's used from

1114
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:14,319
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the year. I looked at this

1115
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 2: week and I thought, for sure, it's got to be

1116
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,320
Speaker 2: Auburn at LSU, right, first chance to get to LSU,

1117
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 2: and didn't know what to expect from some of these

1118
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,279
Speaker 2: other folks like Kentucky didn't know they were going to

1119
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 2: be undefeated. Old Miss didn't quite know they were going

1120
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 2: to be this caliber. Arkansas didn't expect that. But yet

1121
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,800
Speaker 2: now you got Arkansas at Georgia, you got Florida at Kentucky,

1122
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 2: you got Auburn at LSU, you got Old Miss at Obama.

1123
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, you got Cincinnati at Notre Dame.

1124
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 2: But if you remember last year and you remember Alabama

1125
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 2: not being able to get Old Mess off the field

1126
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,319
Speaker 2: ever and having to score sixty two to win, and

1127
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 2: if you have followed Ole Miss this year, and if

1128
00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:56,480
Speaker 2: you understand in the past what's beaten Alabama.

1129
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:57,919
Speaker 1: There's only one place we can go. This week.

1130
00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 2: We are taking the Renaissance Tour to Huscaloosa, Alabama. It's

1131
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 2: our obviously our first trip to Alabama this season, and

1132
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 2: very much looking forward to this because I am telling

1133
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,359
Speaker 2: you Alabama was never going to open as some ten

1134
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,760
Speaker 2: or eleven point favorite in this game. They were always

1135
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:16,320
Speaker 2: going to be over two touchdowns. It's just the way

1136
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,360
Speaker 2: this stuff works. But having said that, there's gonna be

1137
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 2: so much love for Old Miss out there this week.

1138
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 2: We've got them rated top five. I've been leading the

1139
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 2: Old Miss charge. Cannot wait to get down to Tuscaloosa.

1140
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 2: It's the three thirty Eastern time CBS Game of the

1141
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 2: Week play. You know, it did not help that they

1142
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 2: made Auburn at LSU a nine Eastern time kickoff.

1143
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: Whoof terrible.

1144
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:41,399
Speaker 2: So we will be in Tuscaloosa Saturday. I know game

1145
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 2: day is going to be in Athens. That's all well

1146
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:48,320
Speaker 2: and good. Remember Challice Chali of supremacy on the line

1147
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,319
Speaker 2: for anyone who gets the late kick or the Paate

1148
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 2: State posters in the frame shot. Okay, let's go Rama

1149
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,839
Speaker 2: Noudle express and let's get out of here. We went

1150
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,360
Speaker 2: two and four yesterday. I was really aggravated about it.

1151
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,759
Speaker 2: We're still well above five hundred for the season. Well,

1152
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,720
Speaker 2: twelve and ten not well above, but we are above.

1153
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 2: We got three early best bets here, and all of

1154
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 2: them I think have moved, but not too much.

1155
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 1: So let's go with Kent State. They are at home

1156
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:13,359
Speaker 1: versus Bowling Green.

1157
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:15,360
Speaker 2: A lot of you are scared about this because Bowling

1158
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 2: Green just beat Minnesota yesterday. We don't care. Kent State

1159
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 2: minus fifteen and a half. We got food. I'm so

1160
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:23,799
Speaker 2: excited to bet on Rice because we have not been

1161
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 2: kind to them, but we hope they're kind to us

1162
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,920
Speaker 2: this week. Rice is at home versus Southern miss We're

1163
00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 2: taking Rice minus two and a half. And then a

1164
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 2: lot of you got nervous about this one too. Just trust,

1165
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,719
Speaker 2: just have faith. Penn State is laying ten and a

1166
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:40,440
Speaker 2: half at home against Indiana. Huge revenge spot. And if

1167
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 2: you've ever followed James Franklin, he is not shy about

1168
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 2: patting the number late. He is not shy at all

1169
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 2: about it. And so Penn State minus ten and a half.

1170
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 2: We like Rice minus two and a half. Kent State

1171
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 2: minus fifteen and a half. Obviously, there will be several

1172
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 2: more to come, and we appreciate you tuning in. I'm

1173
