1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal ull that for me, I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty. I've heard so many players say, well,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: I want to be happy. You want to be happy

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: for Dake Edo Steak. Is that woo woom?

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: And them?

6
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: And Tie Dan Rubinstein, Welcome to week seven. We made it.

7
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 3: After this week, I guess that means will be about

8
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 3: halfway through the college.

9
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: Football regular season. If you can believe that. How are you, sir?

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 1: I'm terrific, Tie, as always terrific. I've been looking forward

11
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: to this week for quite some time, both as a

12
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: fan of the Oregon Ducks, and there is just something

13
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: about I know this is what the eleventh of October,

14
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: which recording it, so it's the second Saturday of October.

15
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: But this is when I really cherished the season. Ty,

16
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: when you get into that early mid October when we're

17
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: just we're cracking that nut open, Tie to see who

18
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: teams really are. I have this nicknamed and you can

19
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: stop me if you're saving for their our Saturday nickname

20
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: for a little bit, but I have this as a

21
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: smoky Saturday, Spoky Saturday. There is something anytime I walk

22
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: by somebody grilling or smoking meat whatever at a park

23
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: in their home whatever I have. Like I hear the helicopters,

24
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, Saturday dalgating, huh. And that's when I

25
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: start like the weather's kind of turned here. So if

26
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: you smell the fireplaces a little bit more than you

27
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: used to or you know, the last couple of weeks

28
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,919
Speaker 1: or something like that. And then there's also something about

29
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: the slate of games ahead of us tie where you

30
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: smell the flavor tie. You know there's flavor coming from

31
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: this Saturday, but you can't really pinpoint it fully quite yet,

32
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: which is why you and I are here.

33
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 3: Come on, That's why no, I thought, I mean, smoky

34
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 3: Saturday is perfect because after this weekend with the big

35
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: games for Oregon and Notre Dame, we're gonna need a

36
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 3: cigarette and maybe.

37
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: A cigarette Saturday.

38
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 3: Maybe we're gonna need a cigarette and to sit around

39
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 3: a campfire and like get our emotions out after all this,

40
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,960

Speaker 3: the big Dog? I guess of the week, Dan, Yeah,

59
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 3: three point thirty on ABC It is your Oregon Ducks

60
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 3: on the road at the Washington Huskies.

61
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: Speaking of big dogs, I've got some thoughts in this game.

62
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 3: You are the organ officionado of the group, the organ

63
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 3: of fiicionado that people have tuned in to hear. What

64
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 3: say you orgon at Washington?

65
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: Well, first of all, I'm gonna I'm gonna take my

66
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: Oregon hat off for a second here and just point

67
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: out that This is just an incredible matchup. This is

68
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: the matchup with what USC's defense has looked like lately,

69
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: with what Utah's offense has looked like all season long.

70
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: Without Cam Rising, it's one of the worst offenses in

71
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: college football in terms of points scored per drive. So

72
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: from a scoring efficiency metric, Utah has taken an enormous

73
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: step back that this is kind of it's not the

74
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: season because these two teams could play again, potentially in

75
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: the Pac twelve Championship game, but it has established itself

76
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: this matchup as the prime time I think it's at

77
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: three thirty Eastern, the prime time matchup of the season

78
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: out West. All due respect obviously to coach Prime as well.

79
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I have circled this. I'm putting my

80
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: Oregon hat back on for a moment. I have circled

81
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: this matchup for a year just because of how last

82
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: year's matchup went. It was a great game. Bo Nicks

83
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: in that big spot getting hurt certainly affected things. He

84
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: leaves and then comes back. Ty Thompson comes in, doesn't

85
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: go well, and Oregon ends up losing that game. And

86
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: on the other side, good for Washington. Good teams take

87
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: advantage of opportunities. There was an opportunity. Washington got it done,

88
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: had themselves a very successful year last year. Looks to

89
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: be the most lethal offense in America this year, and

90
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 1: so I can't wait. I scribbled down a bunch of

91
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: different things about what I'm excited to see in this game.

92
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: From an Oregon perspective, it's bo Nicks on the road.

93
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: He looked a little bit shaky against Texas Tech at times.

94
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: He has looked shaky throughout his career on the road

95
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: at times, but overall, his Oregon career has been sterling,

96
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: very very strong, and he would be the primetime quarterback

97
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: in this game if not for Michael Pennicks and the

98
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: other side of the ball. And so from an Oregon perspective,

99
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: to me, it's Oregon has a defense that has taken

100
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: leaps and bounds since last year. I saw some stat

101
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: that fourteen of the twenty two players that have taken

102
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: significant snaps for Oregon this season did not play in

103
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: this game last year, which seems meaningful hopefully if you're

104
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: an Oregon fan. Washington has been electric through the air.

105
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: They seem to be healthy at receiver, Roma Dunsa and

106
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: Jalen McMillan were sort of questions in the last couple

107
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: of weeks. McMillan missed a couple weeks there. But they

108
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: are firing on all cylinders. This isn't a rushing team.

109
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: They don't pretend like they're a rushing team. They do

110
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: what they do and they do it better than probably

111
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: depending on your viewpoint of their schedule. And I have

112
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: the scoring. I know, I'm going a mile a minute

113
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: here too. I approcliate this emotional outburst from me. That's

114
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: why the folks have tuned in. I know. So okay,

115
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: this is the defenses that Washington has played, and we'll

116
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: get to Oregon as well. Washington's defense is faced points

117
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: per drive one oh five, ninety ninety five, sixty seven

118
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: sixty five. So they have not played in upper they

119
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: have not played anything above average defensively. And Oregon, you

120
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: look at their schedule and the defenses and offenses that

121
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: they've played not particularly better. To me, this game comes

122
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: down to moments. Washington, the red zone hasn't always been great.

123
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: When you're not able to run the ball, it's nitpicking.

124
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: Washington's run defense, to me, is going to be huge.

125
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: They allow third and shorts more often than just about

126
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: anybody in the country. Oregon is sensational in short yarded situations.

127
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: To me, it's a who can I'm gonna pre settle

128
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: here ty who gets off better? Okay, okay. If Washington's

129
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: defense can get off the field in a more efficient

130
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: manner than Oregons can, it's game over. U doub wins

131
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: at home in front of an electric crowd because I

132
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: don't think we have lots of questions about these teams strengths.

133
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: I think it's going to come down to moments. It's

134
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: going to come down to third and fourth and short.

135
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: It's gonna come down to, you know, is Washington to

136
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: go for it on fourth and goal from the four

137
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: yard line kind of thing? And because I think Oregon

138
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: can do a better job at preventing Washington from doing

139
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: what it wants than what Washington can do in preventing

140
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: Oregon what it wants to do. I am going to

141
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: take the Oregon Ducks oh to this game. I'm gonna

142
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: take the homer Homer because I don't play games with

143
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: the listeners like you do. To tie, I don't say, well,

144
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: I think Notre Dame is gonna win, But I'm not

145
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: gonna pick notre dame. You know who you are, you

146
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: know what you've done over these past few years. Come

147
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: at me. It's been a hard year already. I am

148
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: speaking from my gut, tie from my well toned abdominals.

149
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I think defense right now is more important.

150
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: I worry about all the things I'm still gonna worry

151
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: about with Oregon and Bonnicks and missing shots and uh

152
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: missing open receivers as he did against Texas Tech, and

153
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: big moments. But I'm still gonna go with the Sea.

154
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: What I think is the seasoning of this Oregon defense

155
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: that in a high leverage game like this, you give

156
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: me the team that can get one to three more stops,

157
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with that team.

158
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 3: What so, what is your phone? What does your text

159
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 3: thread look like with Jeff Schwartz right now? How many

160
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 3: times did he message you today about this game?

161
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: Look? I oh today? Only? Yeah? Fifteen. Jeff is the

162
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: kind of fan that and obviously played offensive line for

163
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: Oregon forures. He is positive of his viewpoint of the game,

164
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: and he just wants the game to happen so he

165
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: doesn't have to think about it anymore. Yea. He wants

166
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: it in the rear view mirror so he can move

167
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: on knowing that Organ's either going to lose or win,

168
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: and so he can collect the data and emotions from that.

169
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: So I think Washington, Look, if Michael Penix makes incredible throws,

170
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: makes eight incredible throws, Washington will win this game by

171
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,040
Speaker 1: seven to ten points. I just think, I think, I

172
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: think there are more good players on the Oregon roster.

173
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: Washington has struggled to get to the pass with this year,

174
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 1: which was supposed to be a strength with ZTF and

175
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: Brayln Trice, whereas Oregon has been a pleasant surprise, and

176
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: how many different guys are ending up in the backfield.

177
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: So that's where I'm going to give the lean at

178
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: this point. Running and defense I think is just going

179
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: to be the edge here.

180
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 3: This is the download. Within the download, I appreciate it.

181
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: That was far better analysis than I could give. There

182
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 3: are three things about Washington that fright place in this game.

183
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 3: First off, defensive line against the run, I think Oregon

184
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 3: could push him around a little bit. Secondly, the defense

185
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 3: does not blitz nor sack the quarterback. Bonis has been

186
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 3: pretty efficient in his time, and.

187
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: You clean clean. By the way, the lineupsactly very clean.

188
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think you need to get pressure on

189
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: Bnix if you want to win this game. It's going

190
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,199
Speaker 3: to be I think back and forth in a very

191
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 3: close affair.

192
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: And the other thing.

193
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 3: To that point, I would add that Michael Pennix has

194
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 3: seen almost no pressure this season. We know he's very

195
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 3: capable in the offense. This is his third year now

196
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 3: if you go back to his time Indiana where he

197
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 3: has been in this Kaelin de Bor system. I think

198
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 3: very highly of Michael Penix. I think the NFL does

199
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 3: as well. I think the Heisman voters will as well.

200
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 3: This is not so much a slight on Michael Pennix

201
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 3: as it is we haven't necessarily seen him with this

202
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 3: group of receivers, you know, face any kind of real

203
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 3: significant pressure. So to that end, I think Oregon is

204
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 3: a more physical team. I think they can control the

205
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 3: tempo of this game on the ground and in the trenches.

206
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 3: And again, a really good game last year, I think

207
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 3: it'll be a really good game this year. Washington won

208
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 3: what by three last year thirty seven thirty four, and

209
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 3: that was a game that featured a bunch of big

210
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 3: plays late.

211
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: And red zone turnovers, Michael Pennox through that interception that

212
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: changed things. That Oregon had a fumbled snap that changed

213
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: things deep, and so it was. It was a high

214
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: leverage moment game last year. I anticipate more of the same,

215
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: thirty four to thirty Oregon wins. That's what I have. Yeah,

216
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: I have. I had something in there. I think I

217
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: said thirty seven thirty three or thirty eight thirty four,

218
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: some something like that. Do we agree that's not good

219
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: news for the orc breaks, No, not at all. Let's

220
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: move on. Although you've taken to looking at my sorry

221
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 1: you've taken to looking at my West coast viewpoint and

222
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: just suckling off of Dan Rubin Information team. I've been

223
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,839
Speaker 1: peeking out of the corner of my eye copying, Yeah,

224
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: the Lehigh Valley Barnacle over there. That's right. Well, you

225
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: heard the big dog. You lobbied for this game's big dog.

226
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 3: And I don't know if I fully agree, but we

227
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 3: try to keep the big dogs to three, and you

228
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 3: chose this game over over another one.

229
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 1: Were talking jmu Jojia Southern because I have a lot

230
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: of thoughts.

231
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 3: Three thirty CBS. It's A and M on the road

232
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 3: to Tennessee. Tennessee favored by three and a half points.

233
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 3: A and M is four and two after the loss

234
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 3: a week ago to Bama. Tennessee's four and one coming

235
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 3: off a bye. Interestingly, these teams are separated by about

236
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 3: seventy spots in terms of the current strength of schedule.

237
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 3: For whatever that is worth, Tennessee has not really gotten

238
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 3: into the meat of its schedule yet. I think this

239
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 3: game in week seven is sort of the leading edge

240
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 3: for that. What I am hung up on in this

241
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 3: game is something that.

242
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: You asked a few weeks ago.

243
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,079
Speaker 3: I don't remember how long ago was, but okay, I

244
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 3: don't recall if it was in one of our bonus

245
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 3: shows out on verbowlers dot Com, or if it was

246
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 3: one of the Burning Questions episodes or one of the

247
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 3: previous recaps.

248
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 1: It's all been sort of a blur over the last

249
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. If I'm being honest, is Joe Milton good?

250
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: Is he good? It's it's a worthwhile question? Is a

251
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: ton of picks? Is he good? Or is he just

252
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: Joe Milton? What is? What is? Who is? How is

253
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: Joe Milton? Okay, this is what we talked about in

254
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: our preview and now we're going way back into August,

255
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: but we said, look what if Hennon Hooker was just

256
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: really really good, and that combined with the system that

257
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 1: can take advantage of what makes him really really good,

258
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: ended up with an incredible, when healthy Tennessee offense, especially

259
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: with the emergence of Jalen Hyatt last year, Tennessee has

260
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 1: s pivoted. They run the ball really well, they have

261
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: a really good offensive line. They're winning in new and

262
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 1: different and interesting ways. Their defense seems to have improved.

263
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: I think Joe Milton is very specific, and I think

264
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: he's sort of you know, injuries are treated day to day.

265
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: I think he's sort of weak to week. The Tennessee

266
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 1: receiving corps has been beat up and hasn't been where

267
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: it was last year, and so I don't know if

268
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: what Joe Milton is I don't I don't know if

269
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: what is being asked of Joe Milton is necessarily, hey,

270
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: be Hendon Hooker, let's trust you to bomb it deep.

271
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: I think the offensive brain trust brain trust in Knoxville

272
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: looks at him. It's not that he has limitations, just like,

273
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: let's play to his strengths and let's not try to

274
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: force him to be Hendon hooker. So I think he

275
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: can be inaccurate. I think he can be frustrating if

276
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: you're a Tennessee fan, But I don't think he is

277
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: at the lows of where he was at Michigan.

278
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 3: No, it's an interesting It's an interesting matchup because of

279
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 3: how I think you want to go at A and M.

280
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: When we saw it last week with the Bama game

281
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 3: and Jalen Milroe hitting some big pass plays, right, I'm

282
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 3: not worried in the same way it was last year

283
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 3: about Tennessee doing that to teams because of that pivot,

284
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: because of that pay. They were a pretty good running

285
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: team last year.

286
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: This year, it.

287
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 3: Seems like they've had to lean into it more because

288
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 3: they don't quite have the same pop in the passing game.

289
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: And that to me frightens.

290
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 3: Me from taking Tennessee plus or minus the points here

291
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: because I feel like the strength of this team is

292
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 3: on the ground, and that's actually the strength of the

293
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 3: A and M defense as well. That is not to

294
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 3: say they won't try to take some deep shots. They

295
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 3: think they will.

296
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: Joe Milton.

297
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 3: I would much prefer Joe Milton just air it out

298
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 3: eighty yards in the air then throw a finesse ball

299
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 3: over the middle. I'm much more confidence in him just

300
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 3: unleashing the beast. But that's also not the strength of

301
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: this offense in the early part here. And you know

302
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 3: they've got the injury now to Brew McCoy. So the

303
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 3: receiving corps is I don't want to say a shell

304
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 3: of what it was before. I don't mean that, but

305
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 3: it's not as potent. I don't think. I just I

306
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 3: kept coming back to this feeling in the pit of

307
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 3: my stomach that I think A and M's pretty good.

308
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 3: I think A and M's pretty good. They got their

309
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 3: moments too, They're not perfect. Yeah, I think it's a

310
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: close football game. I'm gonna go A and M something

311
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 3: like twenty seven to twenty four. I think A and

312
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 3: M goes to the road to wins, big road win

313
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 3: for the Aggies in Niland Stadium, because I just think

314
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 3: they're a better team.

315
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: Frankly, you're so disrespectful. I'm going to give you an

316
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: out after my analysis to see if you want to

317
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: change your mind. Okay, Oh, I'm still waiting for the

318
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: I thought that was the analysis. No, you just asked

319
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: me about Joe Milton. Oh, oh, well, good I had

320
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: I didn't make a pick.

321
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Did you find a killer stat did you

322
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 3: find some sort of diamond in the statistical rough after

323
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 3: Tennessee lost on the road to Florida and hasn't really

324
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 3: played anyone otherwise.

325
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: This game in Gainesville, This game in Gainsville, this game

326
00:15:58,320 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: with the swamp, this game is not in the swamp.

327
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: Now continue, By the way, General Neilan went to Texas

328
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: A and m a fun little nugget. Two dogs, two

329
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: very good dogs. Right, You've got the coonhound at Tennessee

330
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: and Reavie the beautiful Why am I blanking on the

331
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: breed tie? This is your area of expertise. Collie Is

332
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: it a collie? Ye? Collie is the breed name? Yes? Okay,

333
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: beautiful dogs. So that's a good matchup. Maybe that's my

334
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: fantasy thing this week cutaway dog shots with the Husky

335
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: and Seattle too.

336
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: We're going to add a fantasy things segment at the

337
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 3: end of this episode, just to get it all because

338
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 3: I've got a really good one.

339
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: That one's no one's picked one. Yeah, that might be

340
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: my fantasy thing dog dog cutaway shots. Okay, Tennessee is

341
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: coming off of a bye, they run the ball well

342
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: behind a very good offensive line. The defense has stepped

343
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: up and gets to play against which quarterback Max Johnson?

344
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: Big game, tough crowd on the road. Okay, just verifying,

345
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: just verifying. This is where you're putting your American dollars.

346
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: And we have Tennessee coming off of a bye, Tennessee

347
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: scoring forty plus points against at South Carolina winning that

348
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 1: game by three touchdowns, and Texas A and M coming

349
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 1: off of a demoralizing loss in which they scored what

350
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: was it two offensive second half points? Not one? Was

351
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: it two second half points? You can look this up.

352
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: Please verify back check yeah, and coaching malpractice it seemed

353
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: with some of Jimbo Fisher short yardage calls. So if

354
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: you think this game is can be relatively close, you're saying,

355
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: I believe in Jimbo, I believe in Max Johnson, I

356
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: believe in this offensive line. You also believe in their

357
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: defensive line and getting stops against Tennessee. I don't know.

358
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: I think Knoxville is a tough place to go. I

359
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: included this in a big Dog tie, by the way,

360
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: because I think whoever loses this game, the emotional outbursts

361
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: online are going to be Trey Magnafique. These are two

362
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: emotional fan base. Everybody has an emotional fan base. But yeah, man,

363
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: if you're Tennessee, you're already sort of Oh, we lost

364
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: in Florida, this Florida, of all Florida's we lost of

365
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: this Florida. If you're A and M driver's seat to

366
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: beat Alabama, we lost Obama. We lost to fifty six

367
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: ranked points per drive offense Alabama. The one year at

368
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: home we were like, WI can be Bama Obama, and

369
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: they lose, and now they go to Tennessee. Situationally, I

370
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: think it's a no brainer. Give me the points Earth,

371
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to give those points. Yeah, wow, look at you. Okay,

372
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: three and a half. Three and a half's too many.

373
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:21,719
Speaker 1: I see ten too many.

374
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 3: I see Tennessee winning for all the reasons that you

375
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 3: described and still winning twenty seven to twenty.

376
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: I just I have the image seared into my brain.

377
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: I don't dislike Max Johnson personally, I have no reason

378
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: to dislike him, but he's like he is waiting and

379
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: waiting as he's getting sacked, as he's going down. All right, now,

380
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw it every ball. That's the problem. Every

381
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: ball is late for Max Johnson. Yeah, yeah, that's the worry.

382
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 3: I don't blame you, and I am worried a little

383
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 3: bit about the Jimbo Fisher shrinkage situation again that we discussed.

384
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: Do I have that sound at the ready? I don't know.

385
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if you do. You mean shrink it, yes,

386
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 1: significant shrinkage. Yeah, let's move on. Next big Dog. Seven

387
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: point thirty NBC USC at Notre Dame.

388
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 3: Notre Dame, Notre Dame favored by two and a half points. Dan,

389
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 3: let's go, let's talk. You want to talk.

390
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: I would love to talk. Let's talk about this game.

391
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 3: We have seen something over the last three weeks that

392
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 3: I have no idea why it is not being discussed

393
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 3: more just out there in the college tripball ether in

394
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 3: Notre Dame circles.

395
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 1: What have you? Yeah?

396
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 3: Fourteen points for Notre Dame against Ohio State, twenty one

397
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 3: points against Duke, twenty points against Louisville. All the talk

398
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 3: this offseason was about Sam Hartman missing link, missing peace.

399
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got he's got that caveman beard, missing link. Yeah,

400
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: why doesn't it feel that way? You want to talk?

401
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: About shrinkage.

402
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 3: Let's talk about Jared Parker, and let's talk by extension

403
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 3: about Marcus Freeman. Why are they easing into every game

404
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 3: like they are easing into a cold bath?

405
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: Is notre dame? Are they the rich Man's Northwestern? Can

406
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 1: only really perform in Ireland? Is that? Is that something

407
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: that has occurred to you? How dare you? How dare

408
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: you come on this show and bring that out? They're

409
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: the super rich Man's Northwestern? How dare you? Okay? Continue?

410
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: There is no.

411
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 3: Excuse for any of this. There is no excuse in

412
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 3: my mind for any of what we've seen on the

413
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball, because they were essentially better

414
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 3: at the same game plan a year ago. Yeah, a

415
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 3: lot of the same players, worst quarterback. The line didn't

416
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 3: suddenly get worse. It's all the same guys from that team.

417
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,880
Speaker 1: Tommy Reese calling the offense, Tommy Rees calling the offense.

418
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 3: It feels like the line is completely out of sync

419
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 3: with whatever plays they are calling, completely out of sync.

420
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 3: And you know what, I'm also going to make it

421
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 3: assumption that it ain't Joe Rudolph's fault.

422
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: Joe Rudolph.

423
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 3: Joe Rudolph was partially the architect behind Jonathan Taylor running

424
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 3: for like a ga jillion yards in his time at Wisconsin.

425
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 3: I don't think he's the reason. I think the reason

426
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 3: is Jared Parker. I think he stinks as an offensive coordinator. Wow,

427
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 3: October eleventh, the flag is making stinks. I did the

428
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 3: Independent podcast, Great new podcast with our friends Pete Sampton

429
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 3: and Matt Fortuna.

430
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: Not a hair in sight. Right on that podcast single

431
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 1: strand your words on my no healthy follic. We love them. Okay,

432
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: they're good guys. Yeah. The reason I bring this up

433
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 1: I did it a couple of weeks ago.

434
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 3: It was after the Ohio State loss, and Matt had

435
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 3: a really interesting question for me, And because this was

436
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 3: after the ten Man debackle, you know, and he was

437
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 3: pretty fired up about it. His point was he was

438
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 3: a little surprised if people weren't in the Notre Dame

439
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 3: world weren't making more of it that it was. It

440
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 3: was a close game, and the fact that they could

441
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 3: have won sort of overshadowed the fact that it was

442
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 3: a huge blunder that should at some point have rey cushions.

443
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 3: I don't disagree with that, but the question was, what's

444
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 3: it going to take to lose the fan base. And

445
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 3: I said, at that point in time, getting blown out

446
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:16,160
Speaker 3: to Ohio State, USC or Clemson, I think there's a chance.

447
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: That not even gets blown out against USC. What I think?

448
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 1: Are you out of your ever loving mind?

449
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 3: I think I think there's a chance to get blown

450
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 3: out against USC because we have seen play call. If

451
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 3: you look at what has happened over the last couple

452
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 3: of weeks through the lens of play calling and offensive organization,

453
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 3: it makes a little bit more sense. Close game against

454
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 3: Ohio State with some better play calling on offense early,

455
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 3: for sure, early, perhaps that's a winnable game. The game

456
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 3: against Duke you win, but not really because of the

457
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 3: play calling, because of a fantastic singular effort in a

458
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 3: clutch moment by Sam Hartman. And then last week against

459
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 3: Louisville again this is an actual loss. And this is

460
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 3: I think because the offense was dead set and determined

461
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 3: to run the football and did not have a plan

462
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 3: B when they could. Okay, so now we enter a

463
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 3: game here against USC where USC is going to score points.

464
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 3: Notre Dame's got a good defense, but USC is going

465
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 3: to score points. And Notre Dame enters this game in

466
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 3: a similar situation where you would think they can run

467
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 3: the ball against a team that struggles stopping it. However,

468
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 3: just like the last three weeks, everybody knows it's coming.

469
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 3: Even for a moment in time against NC State, they

470
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 3: knew it was coming and it didn't go anywhere. I

471
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,400
Speaker 3: am worried about the offense being telegraphed. I am worried

472
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 3: about there not being a plan B. I am worried that,

473
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 3: in a broader sense, Marcus Freeman thought Jared Parker was

474
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 3: the best guy to call this offense. I am worried

475
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 3: that this is the guy he wanted all along. And

476
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 3: despite that the Andy Ludwigs and Collin Kleines, whatever other

477
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 3: names you want to bandy about.

478
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: You want Utah's offense right now? Tie, is that something

479
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: you're interested in? At least the guy's got experience. Man,

480
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: at least he's got experience.

481
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 3: I'm worried that there is nobody else that they could

482
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 3: find to run this thing other than Jared Parker.

483
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: I don't think he's very good. I've got USC thirty

484
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: eight to twenty lock of the week block of the week.

485
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 1: Have you considered Notre Dame? First of all, no better

486
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: human for Notre Dame football than Mario Christobal not kneeling

487
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: to overshadow the ten men on the field, right, Send

488
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: some Sherry's berries down to Coral Gables if you're Marcus Freeman, right,

489
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 1: not a sponsors used to be. Yeah, there's a company,

490
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,239
Speaker 1: could be what's edible arrangements? Something thoughtful? Right, send it

491
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: on over to the Miami facility. Thanks for that guy.

492
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: So if Notre Dame has eleven men on the field

493
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 1: and that final play against Ohio State and they get

494
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: that stop a La Oklahoma against Texas, a big dramatic

495
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,360
Speaker 1: goal line stop and a huge Ridge moment, they win

496
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 1: that game, and they still look like they do against Duke.

497
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: They still lose to Louisville, but they have that feather,

498
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,479
Speaker 1: you know, a top ten we will end up being

499
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: a top ten, top twelve win or whatever wherever Ohio

500
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: State would be ranked if they lost to Notre Dame.

501
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 1: They have that feather. What's the spread in this game?

502
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 1: Five and a half four something, right, I'm just saying

503
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 1: the margin for this number is so razor thin. And

504
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: I understand the emotions that Notre Dame has been playing

505
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: with with all these close games. Not that Louisville ended

506
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 1: up being all that close, but high atmosphere, electric atmosphere games.

507
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: Notre Dame hasn't had that guppy right in the middle

508
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 1: of this all. They haven't had to play a you know,

509
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: a UMass or something like that. You even go love guppy.

510
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,479
Speaker 1: Maybe that sounds right. I like it? No, I like it. Continue, Okay,

511
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,719
Speaker 1: USC has been trying to lose games. USC has been

512
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: trying to lose. They tried to look more vulnerable than

513
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: they ever should have against ASU. Against Arizona, they go

514
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 1: down seventeen nothing, Colorado storms back in that second half.

515
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: There's just something underlying about this USC team that's essentially

516
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: hope Caleb Williams can drag US across the finish line

517
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 1: for sixty straight minutes, because that's what it takes. I

518
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: think USC is masquerading as an eight and four team

519
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: that can win ten to eleven games in the right

520
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: scenario if Kayleb Williams is able to consistently make incredible

521
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: plays or make incredible plays when he needs to, like

522
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: he did against Arizona Lake. USC doesn't have the defense.

523
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: I don't think they have the top tier receiving talent,

524
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: not even in the Conference, let alone the country that

525
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: they kind of did last year when they had Mario

526
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: Williams and Jordan Addison. The offensive line this year has

527
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 1: been keeping Caleb Williams under attack. So if you're going

528
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,160
Speaker 1: to tell me that if maybe the strongest thing Notre

529
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: Dame has done this year is rushed the passer in

530
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: collapse pockets. Yes, they haven't been great against the run,

531
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,479
Speaker 1: as we saw some of those big run plays last year.

532
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: Was it Juwar Jordan for Louisville? But they have done

533
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 1: It's Howard Cross, the big dude in the middle. Yeah.

534
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 3: No, Look, they've had the defense, it's by and large

535
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 3: has been pretty good. They I feel like it is

536
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 3: unfair to them because they have not gotten as much

537
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 3: help as they should have from the offense. Frankly, the

538
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 3: offense is a one trick pony. They do not have

539
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 3: a plan B and USC knows it. Sure they know

540
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 3: what okay, So I just think USC is a one

541
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 3: butt team. They won, but rights, that's a USC. Now

542
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 3: they're going on the road. I still think the atmosphere

543
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 3: is going to be very good. I still think the

544
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 3: depth of your emotions, the depths of Notre Dame fan

545
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,239
Speaker 3: emotions is always going to be more dramatic than it

546
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 3: needs to be. It's same for me with the Oregon,

547
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 3: same for my organ friends, whatever like. It's never as

548
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 3: bad as you think it is. It's never as good

549
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 3: as you think it might be able to be. Right,

550
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 3: Notre Dame was never going to go to the playoff

551
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 3: this year. So Notre Dame is merely a nine to

552
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 3: three type team, some of the good, some of the

553
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 3: bad of nine to three, and they're hosting USC, and

554
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 3: they get the USC defense, and the USC defense might

555
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 3: be the cure for an overrated run game.

556
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: You just watch, you watch. I am just You're going

557
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 1: to see why you're wrong this weekend. You just love

558
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: your road dogs for some weird reason. I don't think

559
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 1: Notre Dame is gonna look great on offense, But you

560
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 1: give me Sam Hartman, you give me good tight ends,

561
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: you give me the best of odric estimate. I think

562
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: they can win this game.

563
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 3: Has like two yards of carry his last three games.

564
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 3: Hasn't played the USC front right our.

565
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 1: Moval's kind of feisty upfront. Duke's coach by Mike Elco.

566
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: Ohio State has NFL talent upfront. No, no, no, no, give

567
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: me Notre Dame here twenty three to seventeen. Oh my god,

568
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: I think they hold down the USC offense too. You're

569
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 1: a sucker for pageantry, is what you are? You just

570
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: why do you like this USC team on the road

571
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: in a tough like's it's kind of dumb? But continue?

572
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 1: All right? Fair enough? So look, we're gonna go through windows.

573
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 3: We're gonna rank our favorite games in each window before

574
00:28:55,120 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 3: we do, though, importantly, weather report, yeah, oh my god, yes.

575
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 2: We are ready for another week of games. And I'll

576
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 2: tell you regions of concern abound the northeast of ben

577
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 2: Atlantic and Pacific Northwest could be drizzling for the ducks

578
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 2: in Seattle. We've got rain in State College and Arbor

579
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 2: and College Park. But solar Saturday, that's right, a partial

580
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 2: eclipse across the country in the middle of the day.

581
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 2: If you're in the Big twelve country at the sea land,

582
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: you will have a chance to see it. Bring those

583
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 2: the eclipse classes while you're at the tail.

584
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 1: Oh, beautiful insight from our friend Tim Buckley. Thank you, Tim.

585
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: Bring those solar eclipse classes. Which mark are we talking about?

586
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: Tim Buckley? Where does he do this? Weather report in

587
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: North Carolina? He's in. He just is the voice of

588
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 1: North Carolina weather.

589
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 3: I think after he host this, it's fair to say

590
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 3: North Carolina he is the guy.

591
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: Okay, continue, So we're what are we doing here with

592
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: this early window.

593
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 3: We're gonna we're just gonna rank the games. We're gonna

594
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 3: rank our games from most interesting to lasi interesting. We

595
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 3: just get three that we could put in the backpack with.

596
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,959
Speaker 1: Us, Okay for the weekend. All right, our trail mix game.

597
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: That's heir early window.

598
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 3: So I've got three games here that I think are

599
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,719
Speaker 3: of particular interest. I don't think it's a great window.

600
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 3: If I'm being honest, this might be the window of opportunity.

601
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: But the three that are of most interest to me

602
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: are Syracuse at Florida State Florida State favored by seventeen

603
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,959
Speaker 1: and a half points, Arkansas at Alabama, Alabama favored by

604
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: nineteen and a half points, and Michigan State at Rutgers

605
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: Rutgers favored at home by five and a half points.

606
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: Do my three differ from your three? Oh yeah, oh yeah.

607
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: I don't want anything to do with watching Michigan State

608
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: football eating ruckers. On shit. I just said, this is

609
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: why I'm interested well, look, if you're talking about your

610
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: quad box on YouTube TV, not a sponsor, never will be,

611
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: probably not. I don't want I don't want Michigan State

612
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: Rutgers affecting my quad. Okay, the three most interesting early

613
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: games to me? Are you ready? Go ahead? Arkansas Alabama?

614
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: Now why is that interesting to me? Well, it's a

615
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: letdown look ahead sandwich for Alabama. Emotional win against text

616
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: A and m Tennessee. I believe at home next week.

617
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: You get wildcard elements of Jalen Milroe. The best of

618
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: him is incredible. The rest of it is like does

619
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: he have a playbook? Is there a pdf we can

620
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: send to Jalen Milroe's Edu?

621
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: No?

622
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: Okay, that to me is interesting. Yeah, I mentioned fifty

623
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: sixth rank points per drive offense. Alabama's offensive line is

624
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: still a mess. Arkansas's defense is ahead of its offense.

625
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: You get the crazy mismatch of Alabama's front on defense

626
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: against Arkansas's offensive line. I still like watching kJ Jefferson,

627
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: I like watching kJ Cook and it makes me feel bad.

628
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: I kind of wish that Arkansas would have done a

629
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: better job and Sam Pitman would have done a better

630
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: job surrounding him with talent. And the other thing is

631
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: with Arkansaw Andrew Armstrong. How about that tie A D

632
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: two transfer Texas A and m Commerce coming in and

633
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: being the go to dude for the Hogs. I like

634
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: those stories, tie and so I'm here for Arkansas. I'm

635
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: here for Alabama. Alabama's gonna win this game easily, but

636
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,959
Speaker 1: you're gonna get wacky plays from Jalen Molroe in either direction.

637
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: And that's worth That's worth a quad spot. What I

638
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 1: like about Arkansas this year? I mean, Arkansas is going

639
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: through a murder's row here.

640
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 3: Let's be real, four straight losses by U L, s

641
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 3: U A and m AT Old Miss and now this

642
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 3: week they've got Bama. There's a little bit of a

643
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,479
Speaker 3: Black Knight from Monty Python here where you chop off

644
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 3: the arms and legs and they're still fighting.

645
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: They come out with fight. I like that about this team. Sure.

646
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 3: What interests me more, though, is I think if Bama wins.

647
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 3: If Bama wins and resounding fashion is I think you

648
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 3: and I both expect here. I think this is the

649
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 3: point that we can declare it. I think we enter

650
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 3: into zombie Alabama territory. BAMA wins this game.

651
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: Is so, okay, is alab Jalen Moro is much better

652
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: than Deacon Hill? Is that Iowa's quarterback?

653
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 2: Same?

654
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say that there there is something analogous

655
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: of what of what Alabama is trying to do this year,

656
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: which like defense is ready, defense is ready to play

657
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: big games against big teams. Offense, well, that's a different

658
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: a different storyline, involve different timeline this offense is on.

659
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: And so there is a little bit I'm not saying

660
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: this to be me, and there's a little bit of

661
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: Iowa to Alabama this year within the context where it's like, look,

662
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: they're kind of half a team related to where they

663
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: have been ones, they're still winning a bunch and I

664
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: kind of see it, and so I'm interested in that

665
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: sort of new direction for Alabama. I gave you my

666
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: second team, my second game.

667
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: That's heresy. Yes, okay, so we do agree on that game.

668
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 3: At least there's one game that we agree on. Yes,

669
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 3: what are your other two? Iowa State Cincinnati? Okay, I'm

670
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 3: gonna tell you why. I don't know what Iowa State

671
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: is this year. I wish they took more chances downfield

672
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 3: with your guy rock Oback, Rockhard Rocko you keep texting,

673
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 3: I have what text? Three am, It's October. It is October.

674
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 3: Iowa State has a dude who has blocked not one,

675
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,320
Speaker 3: not two, but three puns. Nobody else in college football

676
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 3: has done that. Their most havocy player's name is Bacon. Okay,

677
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 3: it's Caleb Bacon. And Iowa State has the most gumpy

678
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 3: Big Twelve schedule in November, and that they keep finding

679
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 3: themselves at notable places in history. That is to say

680
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 3: that Iowa State has a combined seventeen and five teams

681
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 3: Kansas BYU Texas Kansas State in November. So I just

682
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 3: kind of want to see what Iowa State can possibly

683
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 3: morph into with another winnable game.

684
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: I have them winning here. I have that. It's kind

685
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: of my lock of the week really Cincinnati or kind of?

686
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:52,720
Speaker 1: Or is it is? It is luck of the week, damn. Okay.

687
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: Iowa State not great on the road since like twenty

688
00:34:55,880 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: eighteen as a road dog. But I don't think Cincinnati's

689
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: good at all. I don't think the defense is all

690
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 1: that good aside from I think his name is Eric Phillips,

691
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: who's been a nightmare for teams. So I think the

692
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: Cincinnati defense is a great moment for Iowa State. They're

693
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: not going to go porky pig in at pants list

694
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: like they did last week to get going and get

695
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: another winning conference.

696
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 3: Let me give you my two and then we can

697
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 3: do your final one. I'm interested in Syracuse at Florida

698
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 3: State because Syracuse got absolutely housed a week ago against

699
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 3: North Carolina, and what we're seeing develop in the ACC

700
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 3: now is a three team race where we've got North

701
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 3: Carolina and Louisville and Florida State all unbeaten. None of

702
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 3: them play each other during the regular season. And I

703
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 3: like Florida State's road best, if only because I think

704
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 3: they're the better team, but there are some games like

705
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 3: this one that could sneak.

706
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: Up on them.

707
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 3: They're at Wake Forest at the end of the month,

708
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 3: They're at Pitt at the start of November.

709
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: I don't think as highly about Pitt, but Pitt's always

710
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: kind of a weird game on the road. Well, Filder

711
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: COVID bench, Filder COVID bench.

712
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 3: Maybe Christian Vayu can give them a little bit of juice.

713
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 3: I don't know, but my point is that Florida State's

714
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:02,240
Speaker 3: lost games like this before.

715
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: And I said at the top of the AAR. I'll

716
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 1: say it again now.

717
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 3: I'm curious to see if they can take care of

718
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 3: business away that North Carolina took care of business. So

719
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 3: this is more just like a data point for me

720
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 3: that I'm interested in. I think Florida State wins by

721
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 3: like twenty. I think they'll cover. And I come back

722
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,359
Speaker 3: to the Michigan State Rutgers thing. Rutgers favored by five

723
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 3: and a half at home. Yeah, perhaps I am a

724
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,319
Speaker 3: glutton for punishment here. I am interested in this for

725
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,919
Speaker 3: a couple of reasons. First Off, Michigan State plus five

726
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 3: and a half for me, seems like that is the

727
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 3: play a lot of points, a lot of points in

728
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,760
Speaker 3: game against Rutgers. Secondly, this would actually be Rutgers' fifth

729
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 3: win on the season, and they've got Indiana on deck

730
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 3: next week. They have not had six wins in a

731
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 3: season since twenty fourteen. And on the flip side, it

732
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,239
Speaker 3: is almost impossible for Michigan State to go on any

733
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,839
Speaker 3: kind of improbable bull run without winning this game. On

734
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 3: a per play basis, their defense is actually not that bad.

735
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 3: You talked about Rutgers defense as well, Like there are

736
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 3: flashes here on both sides of this. I think on

737
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 3: the defensive side of the ball, I think Rutgers wins

738
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 3: twenty four to twenty one, but Michigan State covers. And

739
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 3: this is actually a fun game to watch.

740
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: I hope. So the Rutgers defenses pretty good. They've gett

741
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: they've gotten it done. They get after team.

742
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 3: Give me your final game, final point of intrigue here

743
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 3: in the early window.

744
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: This is my no brainer of the morning window. Big

745
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:26,280
Speaker 1: Sunbelt East implications with Georgia Southern and JMU. Jordan McLeod

746
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,240
Speaker 1: just picks up a knapsack and keeps on transferring UCF

747
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: to USF, to Arizona, now to JMU. The two quarterbacks

748
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: in this game combined for over one thousand yards, againste

749
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 1: each other last year. Georgia Southern is Clay Helton. They've

750
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: got two really good defensive linemen. They are a top

751
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: forty five scoring efficiency team both on offense and defense.

752
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: They lost to Wisconsin, but they should have a really

753
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: entertaining back half of the season and a very fun conference.

754
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: They play a bunch of teams who I think are

755
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: either five hundred or better, so they've got a tougher schedule.

756
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: A lot of them should be toss ups and I

757
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: don't know. Also, the Dukes who they're playing are full

758
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: on good, like jam, you might go undefeated and not

759
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 1: make a bowl game. I don't know. I think Jordan

760
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,879
Speaker 1: McLeod is good. The pass rush is good. Like they

761
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: beat you UVA Troy South Alabama, like I don't know.

762
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: Like is just a quality game you should watch in

763
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 1: a window that isn't super seductive and even with the

764
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 1: music I'm playing here time Okay, Okay, that's Pack twelve

765
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 1: after dark music, isn't it? I know, I know this

766
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 1: is sun belts on a frisky afternoon Oh my gosh, okay,

767
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: afternoon window. It's a family show, Dan.

768
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, my most interesting game in this block is three

769
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 3: point thirty FS one Kansas minus three and a half

770
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:49,959
Speaker 3: at Oklahoma State.

771
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: Okay, how wild is it to you.

772
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 3: That if Kansas wins this game in week seven, no less,

773
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 3: they'll be bowligible. It just pretty crazy. Yeah, what a

774
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 3: ride man for Lance Leipold that said I'm taking Oklahoma

775
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 3: State plus three and a half points.

776
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: Ooh, and not only that, they're in my homeowner the

777
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: yakos home dog of the week. So it did not

778
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: start out well for Oklahoma State. They went two and two.

779
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 3: They had the bad loss a couple of weeks ago

780
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 3: to South Alabama thirty three to seven. If memory serves somehow,

781
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,399
Speaker 3: they gave up thirty four to Iowa State, a team

782
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 3: that does not score thirty four on anybody. They gave

783
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 3: up a lot of big plays in that game. That

784
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 3: has sort of been the trend for him this year.

785
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 3: I don't think it's likely to end this week against Kansas.

786
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 3: Kansas is like tenth nationally and explosive plays. But here

787
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 3: is the thing that I am focused in on. Oklahoma

788
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 3: State looked like a different team after its bye week

789
00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 3: and did beat k State early last week. Plus it

790
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 3: was a second straight game where their offense outperformed projections.

791
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,439
Speaker 3: It was clearly their best defensive performance we've seen yet.

792
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 3: I am wondering if something clicked on the bye week,

793
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,399
Speaker 3: and you know, you can score on Kansas. So at

794
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 3: home Oklahoma State, I've got Oklahoma State plus the number.

795
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: I think they went out right. Okay, So here's the

796
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: thing you need to know, ty. If you look at

797
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: the past few years of Kansas's points per drive defense,

798
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 1: it's as you would expect, like a hunt of these

799
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: are made up numbers, but around like one twenty six,

800
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: one nineteen, one oh four, one thirty, and I'm here

801
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: to tell you Tyler to day, Kansas is ranked and

802
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: have built the number ninety ninth rated defense. Dumb bull ditch,

803
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: dumb bull ditch. It's all happening in Lawrence. Even away

804
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: from Lawrence, as this game is in still Water. I

805
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: like Kansas here to win out right.

806
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,760
Speaker 3: Uh My, my second game, that was funny. My second

807
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 3: game here that I'm most interested in the window is

808
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 3: three thirty CBS Florida at South Carolina. Okay, Carolina favored

809
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 3: by a two and a half literal coin flip here,

810
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 3: but I think a really good game. I think we

811
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 3: know what we have with South Carolina. There are they

812
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 3: kind of Arkansas East South Carolina Arkansas led by the quarterback,

813
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 3: a little bit of the Black Knight complex as well.

814
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: Well, they're just fight you, doesn't matter, like a shaky

815
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator.

816
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 2: Higher.

817
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they're Arkansas East. I think Carolina is

818
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 3: better than Arkansas.

819
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: Hogs and Cocks.

820
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,240
Speaker 3: Okay, Florida to me is very interesting in the second half.

821
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 3: Their defense is much better than a year ago. They

822
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 3: are lacking a next gear on offense for many of

823
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 3: the reasons we've already described here, but we're gonna see

824
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 3: him against some really interesting teams the rest of the way.

825
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 3: We got Georgia, we got LSU, Missouri, Florida State, all

826
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 3: in the final five weeks of the season. I think

827
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 3: this is a must win for Florida. I think there

828
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 3: is a must win game. I think South Carolina will

829
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 3: be jacked up for this one. But I think Florida

830
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 3: knows that they need to win this one, and I

831
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:10,879
Speaker 3: think they can win. I think they've got the line

832
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 3: play to win. So I like Florida out right here.

833
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: I refuse to put this in my quad so I'm

834
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 1: not That was not one of my three not going

835
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: in the quad box. Okay, so you've given two, right,

836
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: I've given this moment. I've given a home mistake. Kansas

837
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 1: in Florida, South Carolina. Yeah, I just I don't really

838
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: want to watch this game.

839
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,240
Speaker 3: Okay, Look, look this is this is a subjective segment.

840
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 3: My final game in this window is BYU at TCU.

841
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 1: I consider this, but I don't have this one either.

842
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, by US four and one to come off the

843
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 3: by They are currently projected to lose six of their

844
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,919
Speaker 3: next seven, and I am not buying it at all.

845
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 3: I'm not buying it at all because five of those

846
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 3: seven games are projected as one score affairs.

847
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 1: So maybe we see a reverse frosting here, a reverse frosting. Okay,

848
00:42:58,640 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: your term not mine.

849
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 3: Game, maybe they go in BYU's direction. I also think

850
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 3: there's a chance tc is just like not that good.

851
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: I think there's definitely that.

852
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 3: They're not as explosive as a year ago. They're not

853
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 3: good at all at finishing drives. I think BYU plus

854
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 3: the five and a half where's this game games in

855
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 3: Fort Worth?

856
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:21,439
Speaker 1: I love my road Dogs. Hmmm away from altitude? Yeah,

857
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 1: I think BYU is a better team. I think TCU

858
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: might be full on disappointing overall this year, Like they

859
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: might miss a Bowl game this year. Yeah, with the

860
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 1: way the back half of their schedule plays out. So

861
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 1: didn't choose this one. I think that's spot on from you.

862
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: I have cal Utah just because of the possibility of

863
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,760
Speaker 1: Camrasing coming back into our lives. Cal's defense ranked ninety

864
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 1: fifth in points per drive.

865
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 3: What dog, you're putting this in your quad box? You're

866
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 3: putting cal Utah in a quad box?

867
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 1: Well, here's here's what it's up against, Virginia Tech's offense

868
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: and just the Virginia Tech experience in general. Illinois in

869
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 1: one of my quad boxes, UMass in one of my

870
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 1: quad boxes, I'm going with Utah just because I want

871
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: there to be more intrigue at the top of the

872
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 1: PAC twelve, and we'll have that if cam Rising is back.

873
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 1: I don't think Utah has earned minus what is it,

874
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,879
Speaker 1: thirteen thirteen and a half something like that. Right now,

875
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 1: Col's offense is fun enough that this game could be entertaining,

876
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: whereas I look at what it's up against, and I

877
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: don't know if I'd see entertainment from a lot of

878
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: these matchups. All right, so you've got that one. What

879
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:23,719
Speaker 1: are your other two?

880
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 3: Then?

881
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 1: Do you not agree with? I agree with Kansas Oklahoma State? Okay,

882
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 1: by the way, Jeremy Robinson, pay attention to him on

883
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 1: the Kansas ninety ninth ranked defense. Where's my sound there,

884
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 1: dumb bon ditch. My third game is Iowa Wisconsin. Now

885
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why Wisconsin's offense against Iowa's defense

886
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: is obviously the headliner here. Wisconsin's defense has actually been

887
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 1: pretty decent and the schedule hasn't been incredible, and Iowa's

888
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 1: offense certainly has its restrictions. See isn't that like a

889
00:44:56,120 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: nice political as diplomatic restrictions? That was artful than I'm

890
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: not piling on. That's not who I I'm not building

891
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 1: my career out of piling on Iowa. So here's what

892
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to say. There is something crazy intriguing about

893
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: watching Iowa football games. They're so specific in the way

894
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: that they have to win that if you are doing

895
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: something really, really well, that's kind of enough for me

896
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,839
Speaker 1: to watch. If you are doing something very well and

897
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 1: the other thing terribly, I kind of want to see

898
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 1: how it all plays out. It's a little bit like

899
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: watching the Service Academy. There is there is that element,

900
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: and so, okay, I would be horrified and furious if

901
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: I were an Iowa fan and this is the product

902
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: that was out on the field. I would be even

903
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 1: worse if I played outside linebacker or something for Iowa.

904
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 1: When you look at my body, you could understand why

905
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: that seems realistic. But I love the specificity of Iowa

906
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: football and against Wisconsin. I made a nature film of

907
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 1: this way.

908
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 3: Back when we're a pat We're going to post this

909
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 3: out on Twitter and just a.

910
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 1: Big beefy matchup. I mean, I like it. I'm into

911
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 1: it all right now. I'm glad you picked it. I

912
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 1: figured you would. That's why I didn't, to be honest

913
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 1: with you. Let's go the night cap. Can I give you,

914
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: by the way, one more quick NuGet about Iowa football.

915
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you're the five. This Iowa offense has five

916
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 1: top fifty sp plus defenses left and Northwestern. So there's that.

917
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 1: So Brian's not going to hit the KPI this year.

918
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 1: I don't think he's got it. I don't think it's

919
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: gonna happen.

920
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 3: Okay, surely we agree on Miami at North Carolina in

921
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 3: the Nightcaps. Of course, Miami North Carolina. This is the

922
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 3: one that I thought we would include as a big dog.

923
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 3: You wanted Tennessee, Texas A and m the battle of

924
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:47,359
Speaker 3: the dogs, so to speak. North Carolina favorite by three

925
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 3: and a half at at home. This is interesting because

926
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 3: obviously Carolina is undefeated, they look really good, and Miami

927
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 3: is coming off, according to Dan Levittard, the worst loss

928
00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 3: in program history.

929
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 1: FIU in this millennium. They did, they did, but this

930
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:08,920
Speaker 1: was this was like a symbolic loss. In many respects,

931
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,359
Speaker 1: it was bad. Eighty three percent of.

932
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 3: The money right now is on North Carolina, and it

933
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 3: depends where you look. In some spots, you can grab

934
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 3: Miami at plus four.

935
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: Okay.

936
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 3: For all of the talk about North Carolina's improved defense,

937
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 3: and it is improved, I need to emphasize that it

938
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,880
Speaker 3: is not a brick wall, especially against the run. Yeah,

939
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 3: it is not a brickwall. You can score on North Carolina.

940
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 3: Pitt scored twenty four on them with philder Kovic. Secondly,

941
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,239
Speaker 3: this goes back to something you said on the episode.

942
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 3: I guess that dropped yesterday. This matchup screams Mario Crystal

943
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 3: bal guerrilla ball, right, it screams it because of what

944
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 3: you just described.

945
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: You can run.

946
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 3: There is a real advantage from Miami in that sense.

947
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,880
Speaker 3: I also think this is a pretty good team. I

948
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 3: think this is a pretty good Miami team, totally separate

949
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 3: from what we saw happen a week ago, which was

950
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 3: it should not have happened right now in this moment

951
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 3: a week seven. If you are a Miami fan, if

952
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,800
Speaker 3: you're a Miami booster, if you're a Miami player, I

953
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 3: guess they're not a player.

954
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:20,399
Speaker 1: But sure, if you're a player, what the hell? This

955
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: is the moment. This is the moment where you find

956
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 1: out what kind.

957
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,640
Speaker 3: Of leadership you get from Maria Cristobal. I'm sure you

958
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 3: have jokes. I encourage those jokes on the show. But

959
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 3: this is when you find out. This is when the

960
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 3: rubber meets a road right on the heels of a

961
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 3: horrible loss. What kind of team do you get the

962
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 3: next week after? I think he should be able to

963
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 3: refocus them. This is a game of enormous importance. That is,

964
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 3: they must win game for Miami. You need to get

965
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 3: the taste of that Georgia Tech loss.

966
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:48,439
Speaker 1: Out of your mouth.

967
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 3: I have Miami outright, I've got Miami out right. I've

968
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 3: gotten thirty eight thirty. I say all this not in

969
00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 3: a vacuum, because it is clearly of iportance for North

970
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 3: Carolina as well. If North Carolina gets past Miami, it's

971
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 3: a glide path to the last three weeks of the

972
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 3: season when they've got duked and they're on the road

973
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,040
Speaker 3: at Clemson and on the road at NC State to

974
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 3: close things out, and back to back weeks. So like

975
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 3: it gets late early if you're another team in the

976
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 3: ACC look going to try and get above UNC in

977
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:25,920
Speaker 3: the standings if North Carolina does not lose here to Miami.

978
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 3: So I think it's a good matchup for the Keynes.

979
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:33,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna go Kynes. Okay, may I join you in zagging.

980
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 1: You're welcome to join me on the zag. So, as

981
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 1: many have pointed out, Mario Christabaul had a similar experience

982
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,879
Speaker 1: at Oregon in twenty eighteen when they lose to Stanford

983
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,359
Speaker 1: after O'Neil would have iced it for the Ducks. They

984
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:48,280
Speaker 1: follow that up with beating then number twenty four Cal.

985
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 1: I think on the road. I'll verify this right now.

986
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,360
Speaker 1: It was at Cal. Yes, so they went on the

987
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 1: road after an embarrassing loss against the ranked team. And

988
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:59,240
Speaker 1: at the time Cal was ranked, which it doesn't matter

989
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: after the fact to say that like this is who

990
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 1: Cal was or something, but like there was a number

991
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:04,879
Speaker 1: next to their name. It was a decently sized game,

992
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,760
Speaker 1: a ranked matchup between Oregon and Cal. I think Mario

993
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: is just better on the road for whatever reason, like

994
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:18,840
Speaker 1: Hurtz Miles, Mario is just better hurt. So Oregon beats

995
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 1: Ohio State on the road, arguably Oregon's best PAC twelve

996
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 1: win beating up on Utah in the Pac twelve Championship.

997
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 1: I think that game was in the Bay Area, beating

998
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 1: USC a couple of times huge in LA like these

999
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: were the signature wins for Mario at Oregon. Very few

1000
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,719
Speaker 1: of them, if any, happened in Outson. So you get

1001
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: away from the expectations, you get away from the fallout

1002
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:40,839
Speaker 1: that this is the worst Miami loss of all time.

1003
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 1: You go to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where the atmosphere

1004
00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 1: is not all that crazy, which should feel like home.

1005
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 1: Obviously playing at home in Miami, what a dagger. Oh,

1006
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: you get a North Carolina defense that I think I

1007
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 1: believe in, but I'm not fully sold on quite yet.

1008
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 1: If they're able to stop Miami on the ground, then

1009
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,879
Speaker 1: I'll be a belief. I think there is something nice

1010
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:05,399
Speaker 1: about getting away for Miami here. I think they're gonna

1011
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 1: be able to run. I still think I believe in

1012
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:09,919
Speaker 1: TBD as a good quarterback that had a bad week

1013
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: last week. So I'm going Miami outright, you know, sort

1014
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 1: of like US versus the world moment here for the Canes,

1015
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 1: I think they win, and I think they win by

1016
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,879
Speaker 1: a touchdown. I have them winning here thirty one, twenty four.

1017
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:29,240
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, as verballer Emery has pointed out, perhaps Miami

1018
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 3: should take knee on the first play, just to prove

1019
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 3: they have in the play.

1020
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was trying to. I was. I was figuring

1021
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 1: out how to workshop calling Mario Cristobal Neil Armstrong with

1022
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 1: a K N E E L. But I didn't, you know,

1023
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 1: he's the pioneer of something idiotic instead of something incredible.

1024
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,800
Speaker 1: But I couldn't get there, So we'll stuck with Mario.

1025
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:51,840
Speaker 3: All right, two more games here in this window for me,

1026
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,839
Speaker 3: I've got Miszoo at Kentucky. I've got Wyoming at air

1027
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 3: Force as the final two points of intrigue. The Missoo

1028
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 3: Kentucky one, I think is self explanatory. Also a double

1029
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 3: letdown spot with two teams that lost their first games

1030
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:08,399
Speaker 3: a week ago. Kentucky's had a little bit more time

1031
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,479
Speaker 3: to get it out of their system because they were

1032
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 3: basically dead within the first fifteen minutes of that Georgia

1033
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 3: game that was never close.

1034
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:16,279
Speaker 1: To me, this is either a.

1035
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 3: Shootout or a rock fight, and almost nowhere in between.

1036
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 3: I take Miszoo outright. I've got him out right. Last

1037
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 3: week is a pretty good indicator to me that you

1038
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:27,279
Speaker 3: can throw in Kentucky, and I still think Miszoo's pretty good.

1039
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:31,560
Speaker 3: I'm not fully sold on Mazoo as like the full

1040
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 3: reclamation project has been successful on offense, but Britty Cook's

1041
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:40,640
Speaker 3: like look really good, and I think a couple things

1042
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:42,399
Speaker 3: go a different direction last week they end up winning

1043
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:42,680
Speaker 3: that game.

1044
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,960
Speaker 1: So it's Miszoo outright. I'm going to LSU Auburn for

1045
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: the same reason I want to see Iowa football, just

1046
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:52,120
Speaker 1: because is Auburn gonna put up seven hundred and forty

1047
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 1: four yards of offense? What is Auburn putting up a

1048
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 1: ton of offense? Look like, Well, we can find out when, if,

1049
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 1: and when they play LSU this week, so I have

1050
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: that on there. Otherwise, I considered Kansas State, Texas Tech.

1051
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 1: What about that? What about UCLA Oregon State? Is that

1052
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:12,879
Speaker 1: your final one? No? I actually no, Yeah, Ucla Oregon

1053
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,920
Speaker 1: State is the final one. I had also considered Arizona Wazoo,

1054
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,359
Speaker 1: just because it's a letdown spot for Arizona going down

1055
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:22,280
Speaker 1: the road. Taylor Upshaw has been very good for Arizona.

1056
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: The Michigan transfer. Arizona has a tough stretch before the

1057
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 1: Territorial Cup. So I'm going to UCLA Oregon State because

1058
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 1: if UCLA's defense is for real, they will really show

1059
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: it against Oregon State, who should still have a tough

1060
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 1: offense even with some of dju's limitations. So I am

1061
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 1: going Ucla, Oregon State, Auburn, LSU, Miami, North Carolina.

1062
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 3: And the intrigue for me in the Wyoming Air Force game.

1063
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 3: First off, air Force savor by ten and a half points,

1064
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 3: which is a lot. Yeah, but this is essentially the

1065
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 3: battle for Mountain West supremacy. I am not necessarily a

1066
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,200
Speaker 3: fan of the Air Force offensive system. You know where

1067
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 3: I stand on those styles of offense. Yeah, but they're

1068
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,359
Speaker 3: so good at it this year. They're so good at it,

1069
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,840
Speaker 3: and it makes crazy numbers when we do our statistical

1070
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:13,719
Speaker 3: footprints and analyses and whatnot. Nine point two drives per

1071
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 3: game on offense, which is one hundred and thirty third

1072
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 3: in the nation. But they're basically scoring on every drive. Also,

1073
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,320
Speaker 3: because they've only thrown the ball nineteen times and completed

1074
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:26,879
Speaker 3: fourteen of them for three touchdowns, they're technically the most

1075
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 3: efficient passing.

1076
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:33,919
Speaker 1: Offense in America. So crazy stats. I am on Air

1077
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 1: Force here minus the number I'm okay with that. The

1078
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 1: fun thing about Wyoming to me this season two enormous

1079
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,640
Speaker 1: wins in a near win against Texas and the way

1080
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:48,280
Speaker 1: that game was looking is the absolute torture that Cowboy

1081
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,440
Speaker 1: fans must be going through watching this team jump out

1082
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: to an early lead and then stop scoring I know,

1083
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 1: and still win. I think they scored zero touchdowns against

1084
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,680
Speaker 1: Presno State and Texas Tech, and the second half combined,

1085
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 1: I think they scored three points. I think they kicked

1086
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,959
Speaker 1: that field goal against Texas Tech. To combine in those

1087
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 1: four second half quarters in huge upsets and scores zero touchdowns,

1088
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 1: It's quite the feat. Let's see if they can keep

1089
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,800
Speaker 1: it up. Big Mountain West implications.

1090
00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:21,359

Speaker 1: Nudge nudge? Yeah. I mean, if you could just drop

1113
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:32,799
Speaker 3: You know, we did a thing as we were going

1114
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 3: through this where you mentioned a fantasy thing and I

1115
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 3: have another fantasy thing. And since we didn't do the

1116
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 3: show this year and we missed doing these, we've got

1117
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:49,160
Speaker 3: some weekly fantasy things for everybody, which was yours, give me.

1118
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:54,320
Speaker 1: Yours dog shots just because, right, just because it's smokey

1119
00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,320
Speaker 1: and it's smoky Saturday at Tennessee and I think it's dubs.

1120
00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 1: Is the name of the mallute malamute? Is that how

1121
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 1: you prenounce it? The husky like breed? For Washington, I

1122
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 1: think there's gonna be a lot of adorable doggy cutaways.

1123
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to set the over under at.

1124
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 3: Six and a half six and what you need to specify,

1125
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 3: I think to make this better is slow motion dog shots.

1126
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:17,800
Speaker 1: Oh, sure they do that.

1127
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,960
Speaker 3: I'm going to do that with Tennessee the slow motion,

1128
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:27,720
Speaker 3: slow slow motion of the hound. Yeah, smow hound, Yeah,

1129
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:28,919
Speaker 3: slow motion.

1130
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:30,120
Speaker 1: I've got two.

1131
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:34,400
Speaker 3: The first is something that you've probably heard so much

1132
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:36,800
Speaker 3: that you don't even notice it anymore. I love when

1133
00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,040
Speaker 3: announcers refer to a kicker or a punter as a

1134
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 3: quote weapon.

1135
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,600
Speaker 1: Got quite the boot he was hitting from hitting from

1136
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 1: sixty eight before the game. Yeah, I love one. Announcers

1137
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:49,480
Speaker 1: do this.

1138
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:54,040
Speaker 3: Tom Hart Cole Kuberlick on the call from Mazoo, Kentucky.

1139
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 1: I know you guys are listening. This is your moment.

1140
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 3: Harrison MeVis Harrison Meavs from Miszoo. Obviously a bit of

1141
00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 3: a weapon, right, kicked the long field of a win,

1142
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 3: a big game. Jason Bennetti on the call for Iowa, Wisconsin,

1143
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:12,080
Speaker 3: another friend of the show. Yeah, do the right thing, guys.

1144
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 3: Tory Taylor, a weapon for IOWA, won some sort of

1145
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 3: big ten award last week. Listen for this. Okay, it's

1146
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 3: gonna happen, hopefully going to happen. The power is in

1147
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 3: your hands, announcers. The second is something. The second is

1148
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 3: something that I've noticed for the last season and a half. Yeah,

1149
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 3: Marcus Freeman, the extremely photogenet.

1150
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 1: Coach for Notre Dame, hyper specific Notre Dame fantasy thing.

1151
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 1: Continue the cameras love Marcus Freeman. You know this, that's true,

1152
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman. Whar's a headset?

1153
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:49,240
Speaker 3: I cannot recall a single cutaway shot of Marcus Freeman

1154
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:51,920
Speaker 3: of him actually talking into the headset?

1155
00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,720
Speaker 1: Does he usually have the mic up? The mic is

1156
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 1: always flipped up or is it in front of it?

1157
00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:59,400
Speaker 1: It's up, it's down, it doesn't matter. It's uncanny. Yeah.

1158
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,160
Speaker 3: I have watched all Notre Dame games over the last

1159
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 3: year and a half. I thought I was going crazy.

1160
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,240
Speaker 3: I have been deliberate in watching for it this year.

1161
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 3: Take note, if you're watching this game on Saturday night,

1162
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 3: you're going to see the cutaway as a freem and

1163
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:13,840
Speaker 3: they always do it.

1164
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. You see that look of determination on his face.

1165
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 1: He always has it.

1166
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 3: Then it's basically him just lurking on what the coaches

1167
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 3: are saying. Maybe he's listening to the radio feed from

1168
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 3: Paul Burmeister.

1169
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,320
Speaker 1: I think he's listening to this show. He could be listening.

1170
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:30,520
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. He never talks into the microphone. In

1171
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 1: a year and a half, I've never seen one shot

1172
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 1: of him talking into it. Hmm, okay, never once.

1173
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's a Dwight fake wheel situation

1174
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 3: on Lakewall and Paul Pack or what is going on

1175
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:42,640
Speaker 3: with that headset.

1176
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:47,360
Speaker 1: He is never ever talking into it. Never noticed that. Okay,

1177
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:50,920
Speaker 1: you will monitor will now he will now. Okay, So

1178
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 1: the number of conversations he's actively involved on on camera

1179
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: is set at zero point.

1180
00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 3: It's set at point five or at point five. Okay,

1181
00:59:58,960 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 3: this doesn't happen.

1182
01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Final segment on this show, TI Versus the World DJ

1183
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 1: TI Versus the World presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

1184
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:18,520
Speaker 3: We do this again, Dan, we do it every week sometimes.

1185
01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 3: I'm not sure why I've been. I've been struggling to

1186
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 3: pick games correctly. I finally got one right last week.

1187
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: So maybe maybe we'll start a trend here. I can't wait.

1188
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 3: These are my picks. My lock of the week is

1189
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,360
Speaker 3: USC plus two and a half against Notre Dame. I

1190
01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 3: know you disagree. That's fine. Second pick is BYU plus

1191
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 3: five and a half against TCU. I think we agree

1192
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:44,040
Speaker 3: on that one. Third pick is another one that we

1193
01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:47,520
Speaker 3: disagree on. I'm going to Oklahoma State plus the three

1194
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 3: and a half against Kansas. So only three of those

1195
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 3: picks this week. But I do have another one that

1196
01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 3: I think you will equally disagree with. We're calling this

1197
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 3: the one dog parlay. I am going with a straight

1198
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:08,200
Speaker 3: moneyline parlay of three teams in the SEC, Texas A

1199
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:13,520
Speaker 3: and M Florida and Missouri. That moneyline parlay gets you

1200
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 3: in around ten to one on I need three teams

1201
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 3: to win.

1202
01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 1: All three are dogs. I think all three are better

1203
01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:22,120
Speaker 1: than the teams they are playing. Texas A and M

1204
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 1: Florida and Missouri. There is a wonder dog parlay for

1205
01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,439
Speaker 1: week seven. I don't know if you can make this

1206
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:32,440
Speaker 1: pick like quickly or you can look this up quickly

1207
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 1: if you feel good about fading tie. If you were

1208
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 1: to full fade that parlay, I can go with money

1209
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:41,680
Speaker 1: lines South Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky. Is that what it

1210
01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 1: would be? Yeah? Yeah, I wonder what that number is.

1211
01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:47,920
Speaker 1: It would probably be somewhere around the same. Yeah, I yeah.

1212
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 1: So I'm just thinking like, this is your moment, America. Listen.

1213
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 1: I am here to help you make money. Regardless of

1214
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:57,640
Speaker 1: whether I am right or wrong. I don't care. I

1215
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 1: am making these picks. I am sticking to them. I

1216
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:05,840
Speaker 1: will not be broken by my picking in aptitude. Again,

1217
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 1: I don't wager on college football. This might be my

1218
