Speaker 1: Heisman predictions, our college football playoff predictions, and there is

6
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: news and noteworthy stuff because Jim Harbaugh, Yeah he's back

7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: at Michigan right slow down, A Dion Sanders freaks out,

8
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 1: Oh he was on our college football head coaches pressure list,

9
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: and Texas Tech mans overreacting LSU nil and our picks

10
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: for the Heisman Trophy and the number one overall selection

11
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: for this next NFL season, which is obviously going to

12
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: come from this college football season. And you guys make

13
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: sure that you guys like subscribe, tell a friend about

14
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: the show, and most of them importantly share and get notifications.

15
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: All right, So we'll start today, Ralph with some of

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: the news that's happened since our last show. So we

17
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: put out the college football pressure list, not the coaches

18
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: who are on the hot seat, but the ten coaches

19
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 1: who are under the most pressure coming into the next

20
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: college football season. And people didn't quite understand. They were like, oh,

21
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: this guy's not on the hot seat. And that's particular

22
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: league Texas Tech fans because they're saying, oh, oh, how

23
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: could you put Joey McGuire on this list? He's not

24
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: under pressure. Even had one of their boosters tweet at

25
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: me and I'm like, you know that hot seat and

26
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: pressure list are not the same thing. So what is

27
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: making this so hard for Texas Tech fans to understand?

28
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: Or for Colorado fans or for Ohio State fans who

29
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: buck back a little little bit about their coach being

30
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: on the pressure list when there are so many resources.

31
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: The administration is in, boosters are in, and they don't

32
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: understand that that brings pressure, even though that they like

33
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: the head coach.

34
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 2: Right, I mean, what do we talk about, Like Texas

35
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: Tech was something like fourteenth straight years of at least

36
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 2: five losses. Yes they do you think that they brought

37
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: in Joey maguire to keep that going?

38
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: No? But but no, Ralph, he's had two winning seasons

39
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 1: in a row. This is all that matters.

40
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: Did the new thing has to be different than the

41
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 2: old thing? It just does. I feel like they didn't

42
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: have a lot of patients with Matt Wells. Yeah, having

43
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 2: mediocre seasons. They ran out of patients eventually with Cliff

44
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 2: Kingsbury because it couldn't even win with Patrick Mahomes. There.

45
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 2: At some point when you're getting a big influx of

46
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 2: money and like you even had one of the big

47
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 2: donors in your comments. When you're getting a big influx

48
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: of money, of course there's pressure to win. People are

49
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: making personal investments like I don't to me in this

50
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: day and age, these turnarounds they happen either in three

51
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: year builds or it's kindling, kindling, kindling burst into flames, right,

52
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 2: And if it can happen for TCU, it should happen

53
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: for Texas Tech. If it can happen for Washington, it

54
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 2: should happen for Texas Tech. They brought in some transfers

55
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 2: this year that they had, like Jalen Conyers. They had

56
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 2: the money to bring in, you know, probably a top

57
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: ten tight end in the country. You know, they decide

58
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: to go in a different direction when it comes to

59
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: Tyler Shucks. And now you've got a quarterback you could

60
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: have had that's out there doing stuff that you can

61
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: compare yourself against. And it's a new look Big twelve,

62
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: And they start off with a bang. I think they

63
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: got a They got Arizona State like right away, and

64
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 2: so you know, I I the media picked them ninth.

65
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: The media is not taking this team seriously. But it's

66
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 2: about internal pressure. I think Texas Tech is taking themselves

67
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 2: very seriously. And I don't think fans should shy away

68
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: from the idea that it's their time. It is their time,

69
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: and they should meet the moment. I believe that they should.

70
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 2: And you're not saying that he won't meet the moment.

71
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 2: You're saying there's a lot of pressure to do so.

72
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: And I don't disagree with that. The fan base may

73
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: be super happy with him because he seems like a

74
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: great guy, great coach, and they seem like they're headed

75
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: in the right direction. But what happens if they go

76
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 2: seven and six again? How do you think everybody's gonna

77
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: feel at the end of this year.

78
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: Well, and that was one of the things that they

79
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: pushed back. Well, we've had three starting quarterbacks the last

80
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: two years. Okay, Well, it doesn't matter. Like there's only

81
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 1: so much grace that is gonna be given for that.

82
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: And it's not that he's under the hot seat. The

83
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: pressure for Texas Tech is surrounded by look at this schedule,

84
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: it is about keeping hope alive. Because if you know

85
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna beat Abilene Christian, they're gonna beat North Texas

86
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: Washington State, that's a game that they need to win.

87
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: And then you know they need to start out four

88
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: and no since Cincinnati's Scott Saderfield's not having a good

89
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: run so far, they want to be five and zero.

90
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: And then obviously then the tough part, the meat of

91
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: their schedule, starts to come after that.

92
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: So any but George, George, who don't they play? That

93
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 2: makes this year even more important?

94
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 1: YouTube?

95
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 2: Did they exactly?

96
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: Yep? So so Texas Tech fans when they look at

97
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: this schedule, anything outside of a nine to three year

98
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: is probably gonna be looked at as like that, wouldn't

99
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 1: you know, unless you have some weird old result in

100
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: a couple of games. Yeah, but if you get your

101
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: doors knocked off in any games and you finish with

102
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: seven or eight wins, it's gonna be a problem.

103
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 2: Did anybody else have an issue or was it just

104
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: with Texas Tech fans kind of not understanding the premise

105
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 2: of it, which is that like it's time for Texas

106
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,559
Speaker 2: Tech to make that leap.

107
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 1: Well. Ohio State fans kind of pushed back a little

108
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: bit too, and I wasn't really like I look at

109
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: them as a unique situation because when you look at

110
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: this schedule and you look at their how good this

111
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: team is on paper and what they were able to

112
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: do last year and their non conference Akron, Western, Michigan

113
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: and Marshall, this is the not type of non conference

114
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: that I absolutely hate. But that's a whole nother story.

115
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: You look at this non conference and you're saying, this

116
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 1: is a team that absolutely should win at a minimum

117
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: eleven games a minimum, because you can't stomach losses with

118
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: the type of NIO that they've put forth, the recruiting

119
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: that they've done. You can't stomach a loss to Iowa

120
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: because their offense is atrocious. Even though that they've changed coordinators,

121
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: it's still not. You still shouldn't lose that game. The

122
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: Oregon game in Austin. You can stomach that because that

123
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: would be okay. A win or a loss in that game,

124
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: you're fine. As long as you don't lose by more

125
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: than one score. You're right, Nebraska, then you have to

126
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: beat Penn State. If you don't beat Oregon, you have

127
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: to beat Penn State. If you lose, if you beat Oregon,

128
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: now you have well, you still gotta beat Penn State.

129
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: But that's a give you a little bit of whigger room.

130
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: And then you got purdued Northwestern Indiana. And then that's

131
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: the game on November thirtieth. If he loses to Michigan

132
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: under this turmoil, Sharon Moore, under investigation, Jim Harbaugh, everything else,

133
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: he cannot lose that football game, no way. And so

134
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: their fans pushed back a little bit. Oh hockey. I'm like,

135
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: it's y'all that are the crazies that want to fire

136
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: a coach that is one this many games. But uh

137
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: but speaking of Michigan though, and Michigan crazies, so put

138
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: out a video on on a freight show this last

139
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: week about Jim Harbaugh and his situation and how the

140
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: NCAA is now bread combing out the notice of allegations

141
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: because of the Netflix. They're just gonna drop on August twentieth,

142
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: and that's causing a problem. And Michigan fans, rightfully, and

143
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,359
Speaker 1: when I say rightfully, I mean like that they're behaving

144
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: like fans do is they are, Oh, where's the proof?

145
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: Where's the oh, let it alone, it's not a big deal.

146
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: Of course, that's exactly what I would expect, same thing

147
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: patriots fans did with the Flakegate spygate. This is what

148
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: fans are going to do. This is no different than

149
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: political discourse. You will ignore anything that the people that

150
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: you like did and if not. And I even had

151
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: Aaron Finterest, who covers Oregon for the Oregonian, he said, well, what,

152
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: well you believe Chip Kelly when it came to Willie

153
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: Lyles in Texas. I said, no, I didn't believe Chip.

154
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: I just didn't care, right And that's the way. And

155
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: that's why I say, rightfully for Michigan fans, you're you're

156
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: not going to care, even though you probably should.

157
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: Every single person out here that wants to say this

158
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 2: is family business, like shut up. I get it, I

159
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: get it, but it's not it. It's discourse is what

160
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 2: we're gonna do. We're gonna talk. You're gonna talk about

161
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 2: unless a Michigan fan rode hard for Jim Tressel, you know,

162
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 2: I don't have anything to say to them, you know,

163
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 2: unless you cross, unless you cross the picket line to say,

164
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: uh that you know, trading a tattoo for a jersey

165
00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: wasn't a big deal. Shut up, because, of course Ohio

166
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 2: State fans, of course the rest of the Big Ten,

167
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 2: they're gonna smell blood and they're gonna act like sharks.

168
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, we just have

169
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 2: to get back to the fact that this was all

170
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 2: self reported. Yes, so don't don't come talk to me

171
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 2: about something you brought to the NCUBA.

172
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, hey, hey guys, there's a witch hunt over

173
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: over here and we have witches. Yeah, all right, okay,

174
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: So now what did you think when you saw the

175
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: headline that Jim Harbaugh was gonna be the honorary captain

176
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: for their first game of the season.

177
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 2: I thought it was a little bit weird because the

178
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 2: Chargers deserve his full attention, and I understand that people

179
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 2: can do two things. I actually don't think it's a

180
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 2: big deal, but I actually thought that there would be

181
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 2: more pushback from Chargers fans. And I had to remember,

182
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 2: are their Chargers fans? I know like three of them,

183
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 2: so you know, But you know, I never really thought

184
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 2: it was something that I think that Jim Harbaugh is

185
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 2: gonna be welcomed back whenever he wants to come back

186
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 2: for any reason. I don't think it has. He chose

187
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 2: to leave. He chose to leave. He was done with

188
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: that chapter, done with that challenge, be where your feet

189
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 2: are at? And I kind of thought that it was

190
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: strange that he was gonna come back so soon. And

191
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 2: I thought that maybe the primary motivation would be to

192
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 2: thumb your nose at the NC double A. I don't

193
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 2: think that's wise at this juncture to poke that bear

194
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 2: anymore than they need to.

195
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: It's interesting that that's the angle that you took at it,

196
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: because you went from the chargers. They deserve its full attention.

197
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: Me I first was like, oh wow, they're like double

198
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: middle finger, double bird to everybody, and that actually made

199
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: me respect Michigan. I was like, okay, cool, if you go,

200
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do it, then do it. B Yeah,

201
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: if you just gonna thumb, if you just gonna middle

202
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: finger everybody, okay, cool, Hey, hey that is that's what

203
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh essentially did.

204
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 2: So yeah, and there was all this it's a land

205
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 2: Michigan fans were like, our athletic director doesn't have our back.

206
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: They were really pushing that though, yes, and I think

207
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 2: they recognized Paul was coming from inside the house or whatever.

208
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: But who yes and so, but now it has now changed,

209
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: He's not gonna be there, and so cooler heads prevailed

210
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: and somebody was like, Okay, cool, Yeah, we probably shouldn't

211
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: do this. There's more information bread crumbing out. We've seen

212
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: the documentary because Netflix probably sent them stuff to get

213
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: comments on and for the documentary, and they either commented

214
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: or didn't. So they know what and they have a

215
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: great idea of what's coming in the notice of allegations,

216
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: what's provable, what's not, and what Netflix has and what

217
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: people said on camera. They know. So this is the

218
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: decision why Jim Harball was not brought in because it

219
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: would have been after the Netflix documentary comes out, and

220
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: that could cause a problem.

221
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I hope that that's not the case.

222
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: I personally hope that that it wasn't. Like they got

223
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 2: an advanced screening and they were like, Oh, I hope

224
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: that that wasn't. I hope that wasn't the case. I

225
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: assume I'm gonna be watching it for the same reason

226
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 2: that you're watching it, and we're gonna be texting back

227
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 2: and forth the whole time. Yes, I know, I know

228
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 2: that that's coming. But I it's hard for me to

229
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 2: imagine if they got Connor Stallion's to participate in this,

230
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 2: that there's gonna be anything that he would have given

231
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 2: to this that would be terribly incriminating.

232
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: Michigan, Hold on, did you watch BS High on HBO

233
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 1: on Max?

234
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 2: I did? Yes, Okay, you just put out camera in

235
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 2: front of him and they don't shut.

236
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: Up exactly, so he doesn't have to say anything. This

237
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: necessarily incriminating, But it's one of them. He's participating in

238
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: it number one for money and number two for because

239
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: he wants to get his part of the story out

240
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: and he wants to take all the blame I will get.

241
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: I would I have not seen the documentary yet, but

242
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: I would be willing to bet anything anything that he's

243
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: on there taking all the credit for it because he

244
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: wants to look like a genius. And remember, he's a

245
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: psycho fan. I mean, that's what it really comes down to.

246
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: Connor Styles is a psycho. He's a celebrity stalker.

247
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 2: He's Selena's manager.

248
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: Yes, he's a celebrity stalker.

249
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 2: He might have killed that program.

250
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: Yes, he's a celebrity stalker who essentially said, you know, what.

251
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: I want to make Michigan a national championship winner, and

252
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: I will do anything to be a part of this program.

253
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: I will there is no expense, I won't spare. I'm

254
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: going to get on Michigan's staff. And that's what he did.

255
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: So he was a man with a plan and a

256
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: mission and a and a psycho stalker. And that's what

257
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: he did. Do your respect it, Yes, a man with

258
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: a Now I respect his hustle, I respect his I'm

259
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: not going to let anything get in the way of

260
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: my goal. Now, you do have to have some integrity

261
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: and and you know, some principles. But he was like,

262
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: by any means necessary.

263
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 2: He brought that Chick fil A energy to college football.

264
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 2: He's out here advanced scouting saying my pleasure, and I

265
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 2: I gotta respect it on some level. But yeah, I

266
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 2: just I really hope that it's not like BS High,

267
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 2: that he doesn't go out there and make everybody look

268
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: stupid just because he's proud of of of what he did.

269
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 2: I want to believe that he's not like a sociopath,

270
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: but that just he he was driven, you know, and

271
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 2: we'll see, I guess we'll see.

272
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, can we talk about Dion Sanders speaking of yes

273
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: we can and do you think I care? No, So

274
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: because anything and people who like the reason why this

275
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: show is called the channel is called the Unafraid Show

276
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: and all of this stuff because we got to be

277
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: unafraid to say the things that we need to say.

278
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: And but we if you listen to this, this is

279
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: not a hit job show. This is not a place

280
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: where we just go after people. But we try to

281
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: be honest and realistic in our critiques and our opinions

282
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: about things. And so there is nothing that I say

283
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: on my radio show, on Mad Dog here, on Unafraid Show,

284
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: on social media, anything like that that I do not

285
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: believe or that I would not say in front of

286
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: those people, including James Harden, who I think is a

287
00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: who has bad basketball character. But that's hard I probably give.

288
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: He probably gets more like unsolicited shots from me than

289
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: any other player.

290
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,479
Speaker 2: If it wasn't for Daryl Moriy, you might be his

291
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 2: least favorite person.

292
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, oh so, Dion Sanders, he does. He takes

293
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:29,479
Speaker 1: any criticism or any critique as hate as a you know,

294
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: as a personal offense. And he talks to the media

295
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: like do you believe do you believe it's not my

296
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: job to believe it's my job to report on what happened,

297
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: because you have to remember that there are different types

298
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 1: of people in different types of jobs. There are journalists

299
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: who are supposed to be objective and report what happens

300
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: and talk about how to maybe interpret that, and that's

301
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: more like a columnist talking about the interpretation of it.

302
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: And then there are people like us who are opinionists.

303
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: We are ralph'say official journalist sometimes yes, part journalist, part well,

304
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 1: here is the journalistic background with opinionist tendencies and so

305
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: you're so you have to understand the people that and

306
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 1: the job that they are tasked to do. So. Deon

307
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: Sanders has been critical of people in the in the media,

308
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: the stories He didn't like that he was picked last

309
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 1: in the Big Twelve, to be the worst coaching the

310
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,479
Speaker 1: Big Twelve or one of the worst or whatever. And

311
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: that's fair for you to have some upsetness about it.

312
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 1: But to say that you're not going to answer a

313
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: CBS local reporter's questions who's trying to do his job

314
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: right because of something that a national writer said is

315
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: not cool. And Dion not paying attention to the fact

316
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: that your local writers are your biggest ally, like that

317
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: your local people are your biggest ally, even if they

318
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: don't like you or whatever that because they want access,

319
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 1: they want all of this stuff. So you kind of

320
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: have to play that game with them. You kind of

321
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: have to give them a little bit of information, but

322
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: then not too much information. You have to build a

323
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: certain level of trust there. And I think that he

324
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: operates from a different wavelength and he's got to understand

325
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: the politics of coaching and play by some of those

326
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,719
Speaker 1: rules in the midst of trying to be a disruptor.

327
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 2: Yes, the CBS's CBS comment was funny, And the reason

328
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 2: it's funny is because were you going to ignore Max Press,

329
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 2: Are you gonna not watch MTV? Are you gonna not

330
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 2: let your kids watch Nickelodeon? Are you not gonna pay

331
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 2: attention to seven? Because yeah, they own two four seven. Yeah,

332
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 2: and one of Dion's boys that he always does interviews

333
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 2: with is one of two four seven's national college football reporters.

334
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, but.

335
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: That's like saying that that like two four seven is

336
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: CBS Sports is CBS National. It's not this like they're

337
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: part of the same company. But they don't even answer

338
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: to the same people.

339
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just like I. I didn't love that. He

340
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 2: he has a message he wants to get across. He

341
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 2: walks in with a goal to stir the pot. He

342
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 2: does an incredible job of keeping all eyes on Colorado

343
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: all the time. But what we brought up last week,

344
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 2: and I stand by it, is if he's gonna get

345
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 2: distracted every single time one of these things happens, and

346
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 2: he's actually gonna have some emotion behind it, and he's

347
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 2: gonna let Dion On Junior cuss people out on Twitter

348
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 2: every single week in between posts and Bible versus himself, Like,

349
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: if this is if this is gonna happen every single time,

350
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 2: then he's gonna burn himself out. Yes, and you, you

351
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 2: and I talked about that. I I think that the

352
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 2: future for Colorado is bright. I think that he is

353
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 2: doing a really good job. I think there's some obvious

354
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 2: misunderstandings and how college football works. You can't ignore high school.

355
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 2: You know you You've talked extensively on that. But you're

356
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 2: allowed to have differences of opinion of how he goes

357
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 2: about it. And he's allowed to be offended if someone

358
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 2: calls him the second worst coach in the big, Big twelve.

359
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 2: I definitely don't believe that to be true, but I

360
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 2: am fascinated by how he's gone about things because he

361
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 2: got Warren sta he got Warren Sapp on staff. Now,

362
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 2: Warren Sapp used to go on with Jason Whitlock every

363
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: single week and sit there while Jason Whitlock blasted Deon

364
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 2: Sanders for being a fake Christian, fake for the culture

365
00:21:56,080 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 2: just blowing up and real that's right exactly, and Warren

366
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 2: Sapp would just sit there, he would engage in it.

367
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 2: Now Warren SAP's on staff, So like, who are we

368
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: gonna get offended by? Who are we gonna close out?

369
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 2: Who are we gonna draw near? You know that if

370
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 2: you're trying to keep track of what Deon Sanders is doing,

371
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 2: it can get a little bit of exhausting. But I

372
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: you got kids, I got kids. We both got a

373
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 2: bunch of kids. I think we have like fifty kids combined.

374
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 2: Do you ever like one kid's making a bunch of

375
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 2: noise in the backseat and you're just like that's it,

376
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 2: and you yell at everybody to send a message.

377
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: Yep, me too.

378
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 2: So I didn't I didn't fail to understand what Deon

379
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: Sanders was trying to accomplish. But these aren't kids. He's

380
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 2: a grown man. And then and I don't think it

381
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 2: serves him in the long run. But maybe I'm wrong.

382
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong. All I know is if he went

383
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 2: off on me because of what somebody else did, I

384
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 2: don't I'm I'm not built like I would have been

385
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 2: like what are you talking? Like I would have yelled

386
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 2: in the press.

387
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: Conference, Oh yeah, right, I got I got time today, Dion,

388
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: I got time today. So and yeah, I'm like, this

389
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: is where you can.

390
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: And this is I was gonna say, like, this is

391
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 2: the part that I want to be has us talking

392
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 2: over each other. This is quite possibly the worst thirty

393
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,479
Speaker 2: second running podcast is.

394
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: And this is the part that I want Dion to

395
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: understand and that I would when I get a chance

396
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: to interview him, talk about and people who are watching

397
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: Colorado and everything else. Is that because anytime I've said

398
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 1: anything that is a critique of Colorado, Oh you hate Dion,

399
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,679
Speaker 1: why aren't you rooting for the black man? This is

400
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: this And I'm like, I can say, like this example

401
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: way I like to use. I love my wife, love

402
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 1: my family, love my kids. I don't don't always agree

403
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: with them, So that's okay. I cannot agree with them

404
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: and still support them. I cannot agree with them and

405
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: still have their back. Those two things don't aren't mutually exclusive.

406
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: So I can want Dion to be successful and his

407
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 1: mission to be successful, but also say, hey, yo, buddy,

408
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: that way of going about it, ain't it. And that's

409
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 1: actually what he says that he does with his players.

410
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna love on him, I'm a love on them.

411
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna coach them up. You know, I'm gonna tell

412
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,199
Speaker 1: them the hard thing, So you got to hear the

413
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 1: hard thing too, Dion.

414
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 2: And how is George Reiser supposed to square not putting

415
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 2: full effort into high school recruiting when he came in

416
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 2: and said, watch us offer kids before they get ranked

417
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 2: by two four to seven and arrivals because we're gonna

418
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 2: have our own internal evaluation process. Ye, can you name

419
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 2: a single kid whose first offer came from Colorado before

420
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 2: they were ranked by rivals or two four to seven? No,

421
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 2: neither can I and I pay attention to this stuff.

422
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: So I think you're allowed to take him seriously. And

423
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 2: if he doesn't match his own words, ask what's going on?

424
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 2: I think that's fully allowed. But I think he's also

425
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 2: allowed to get mad just the ranking stuff, you know what.

426
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: And also I don't think that's correct. Second worst coach

427
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 2: in the Big twelve is isn't a big part of

428
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 2: being a coach fundraising and recruiting. Who's doing a better

429
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 2: job than him?

430
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: Nobody who's got it better than us? Nobody? All right?

431
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: Speaking of nobody having it better than us, it is

432
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: college football season now. We are less than two weeks

433
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: away from the season. And with us being with us

434
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: being two weeks away from the college football season, we

435
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: have to get prepared for the college football season, Ralph,

436
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 1: get prepared for it mentally, emotionally, you know, budget our time.

437
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 1: And I'm just trying to figure out what everybody else

438
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: in the world is doing right now because I am

439
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: mentally gearing up for what is coming. I am excited.

440
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:18,920
Speaker 1: I could not be any more, you know, happy, there's

441
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: an elation, there's a feel good building up. I am.

442
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: Everybody knows because I am prompting everybody, do not ask

443
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: me to do anything on Saturdays. Aside from now, I've

444
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: got a complicated situation this fall because I have a

445
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: son in college football. I would like to show up to,

446
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of his games. I have a

447
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: son playing college I'm sorry, playing fourteen, you who just

448
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: turned thirteen, and so they play on saturdays. I have

449
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: my daughter's playing volleyball, but they don't play on the weekends,

450
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: which is thank the Lord. They only played during the

451
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: week except for like a tournament later on. And then

452
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: we have what else do we have? Oh and then

453
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: the little kid Roman and he's in jiu jitsu and

454
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 1: all of this stuff, but that's not on the weekends.

455
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: We'll we ex the weekends out for him. So aside

456
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: from being at my son's game and watching college football,

457
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,679
Speaker 1: don't ask me to do anything. I am. I am

458
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 1: one hundred unavailable for your dinner, for your wedding, for

459
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: your like, maybe for your funeral funeral. I was waiting

460
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: for it.

461
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: I'll try really hard not to die in the next

462
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 2: couple of months.

463

465
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: anytime soon regardless. But during football season, don't schedule anything.

466
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: Do not schedule anything. And according to the not October

467
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:13,280

468
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:18,640

00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: October twelfth, and I'm like, I do not understand who

470
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: raised these people? We got Oregon, Ohio State, Texas Mission.

471
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Texas, Oklahoma, oh Miss LSU, Penn State USC.

00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: I'll repeat that, Ohio State, Oregon, Texas, Oklahoma, oh Miss LSU,

473
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: and Penn State USC. And people are scheduling weddings on

474
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 1: those days. Ralph, who raised these people?

475
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 2: I did see a guy took got quote tweeted into

476
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: oblivion until he deleted it. I think he even played

477
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 2: in Indiana saying that like, you gotta grow up, you're

478
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 2: twenty six, have a fall wedding. And I just want

479
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 2: to say to people who have fall weddings, most of

480
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 2: the people I know are either college football fans, college

481
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 2: football players, college football media, or college football employees of

482
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 2: some kind like coaches, so it would be tough for

483
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: them anyway. But do you understand that when you get

484
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 2: married on a day, your anniversary is going to be

485
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 2: on that day for the rest of the time. It's

486
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 2: not just that you have a fall wedding, it's then

487
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: that you're expected to, like, hey, this weekend's just ours

488
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 2: for And so that's a tough one. That's a tough

489
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 2: one if you can avoid it, avoid it. I'm with you.

490
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 2: I got two kids playing high school football, I got

491
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 2: one playing softball. I got one take in baseball lessons.

492
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 2: I cover high school. So here's what my Friday looks like.

493
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 2: I go to a game at seven, I come home.

494
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 2: I cover high school football on the West Coast from

495
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 2: the East coast. Those games start at ten, So then

496
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 2: I have a wrap up show at one in the

497
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,440

499
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 2: And then on Sundays we're playing and doing content together

500
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,920

501
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 2: also am not gonna be available to do anything. But

502
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 2: you know, it gets real tough when you have an

503
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: eight year old daughter who is like watch Blue with me.

504
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 2: I what am I supposed to do?

505
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: F t K.

506
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 2: I don't know. I might have to like make up,

507
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 2: I might have to make like I might have to

508
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: have like the the bluey on the phone with the

509
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: college football. It's gonna be tough. It's gonna be tough,

510
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 2: but yeah, that's part of the gig, and I wouldn't

511
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 2: have it any other way. Uh, but it is. I

512
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 2: mean even even when I text you and you're out

513
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 2: and I'm like did you see this play? And you're

514
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 2: at something, you almost always get mad. You're like, why

515
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 2: are good things happening when I can't be in front

516
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 2: of television.

517
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: And so so at and the reason why? And people

518
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna say, well, you can watch it on your phone.

519
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,479
Speaker 1: I can only have two things on while I am

520
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: not home because I have my phone and I take

521
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: my iPad. Anybody that knows if I have to go

522
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: somewhere in the fall, even to my own kids game

523
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: I am watching, I have my phone and my iPad

524
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: at my kids game. And then because when I'm at home,

525
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: I can watch six different games, I can have them

526
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: on at one time, four on one TV, one on

527
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: another TV. And then I got a iPad there as well.

528
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: Oh and then my computer, so actually I can get

529
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: seven get seven at a time if I need to,

530
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: so I don't have to miss it. I don't get commercials.

531
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: I don't pay it. I am tuning into another channel

532
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: if a commercial comes on. So if there's something that happens,

533
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: this is why I no longer. My wife gets upset

534
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: because we have UCLA season tickets. She loves to go

535
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: to the game. We used to go to the games

536
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: all the time. I don't want to go to Champs

537
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: no more because the whole time I'm there, I'm on

538
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: two screens and she'ms like, George, what, what what is

539
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: the point in you coming? I'm like, you're right, You're right.

540
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially I mean, you you got them good parking passes,

541
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 2: but you get in that traffic and you just know

542
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 2: you're missing college football. You could be in your office

543
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 2: and then she.

544
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: Has to drive their and back. That's the only way

545
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: I'm going, Yeah, because I get to sit like.

546
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 2: I'm flying out to a couple of games this year,

547
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 2: maybe maybe checking out a few. But I do hate

548
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 2: being at a game when I know that I'm missing

549
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 2: something else. But if I have the opportunity to what

550
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 2: I think, you know, the the Duke's kickoff is in Charlotte,

551
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 2: I could technically go to see Georgia Tech kick the

552
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 2: season off here in a couple of days down in Atlanta.

553
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 2: I'm flying in for Wyoming Arizona State, and so I'm

554
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 2: you know, I'm gonna try to hit some games because

555
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 2: I love the in person pageantry, but I hate the

556
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 2: feeling of missing out. So it's gonna it's gonna have

557
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 2: to be a late night game to where my whole

558
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 2: day is not eating up. But yeah, it's it's tough, man.

559
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: I know that there's people out there, like fighting fires

560
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 2: for a living and working in triage and hospitals that

561
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 2: are listening to this like, oh, I'm sorry, your life

562
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 2: is so hard.

563
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: Sorry, your life is so hard that you can't figure

564
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: out how to get down to baton Rouge for the

565
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: LSU u c LA game and making back for your kids'

566
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: games too. Okay, sorry, oh sorry, we're off life all right.

567
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: So that's how we're getting prepared for the college football season.

568
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: But uh, there's a lot of awards and things that

569
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: we got to get prepared for because the college football Playoff.

570
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: This is the first year of an expanded twelve team playoff.

571
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: I'll be pushing for this for so long, and all

572
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: you losers who wanted to stay at four, oh, this

573
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: is rubbing in your face. But I will say I

574
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 1: hate twelve. At the same time, I didn't get what

575
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,800
Speaker 1: I wanted either, I only wanted eight or sixteen because

576
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: I don't like buys, but that's a whole nother, whole

577
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: nother conversation because football's football people get hurt, you know,

578
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,760
Speaker 1: buys and baseball playoffs impact you know, like the higher

579
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 1: seeds typically don't play as well because they're off. There's

580
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: a lot that goes into it. But whatever, we got expansion.

581
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 1: But the question is is will that ex that expansion

582
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: cause more teams to be able to win? And the

583
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,919
Speaker 1: answer is actually yes, even though that people will tell

584
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 1: you the answer is no, the answer is actually yes.

585
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: And the reason why is because the college football blue

586
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: Chip ranking, and the blue chip ranking which CBS Sports

587
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 1: puts out every year is the amount of four and

588
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 1: five star prospects on your roster. And there's never been

589
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: a team to win that didn't have at least fifty

590
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 1: percent of the roster with four and five star prospects.

591
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: And so the history of the National Championship, Michigan won

592
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: it last year with fifty four percent, Georgia seventy seven

593
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 1: and twenty twenty two, Georgia eighty percent in twenty one,

594
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:35,320
Speaker 1: Alabama eighty three in twenty LSU sixty four in nineteen,

595
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: Clemson with sixty eight and eighteen, Bama eighty percent in seventeen,

596
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 1: Clemson fifty two percent in sixteen, which was wild with

597
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: the Deshaun Watson class, Alabama with seventy seven and fifteen,

598
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: Ohio State sixty eight fourteen, Florida State fifty three and thirteen,

599
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 1: Alabama seventy one in twenty twelve, and then Bama with

600
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: seventy one and twenty eleven.

601
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 2: So are you saying stars matter?

602
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: Yes, stars matter, No, no matter what people lie and

603
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 1: tell you. Stars matter on the macro, so on a

604
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: team basis, but on the micro, on an individual player basis,

605
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: they don't matter. But because if you get enough four

606
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 1: and five stars together, yes, some of them are not

607
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: going to pan out, but the ones that do them

608
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 1: ones is different. So the so this year the teams

609
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: that have better than a fifty percent blue chip ratio

610
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: Ohio State at ninety percent, which is insane, right, Alabama

611
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 1: at eighty percent and Bro this is insane, Like the

612
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: team's never even won with a like the highst was

613
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:55,240
Speaker 1: eighty three, and we're at Ohio State at ninety percent,

614
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 1: but Alabama eighty eight percent, Georgia at eighty, Texas A

615
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 1: and M at nine percent. Oregon at seventy six, Oklahoma

616
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: at seventy three, Texas at seventy two, LSU at seventy,

617
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 1: Notre Dame at sixty seven, Clemson at sixty four, Florida

618
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: at sixty three, Miami at sixty one, Penn State at

619
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:24,439
Speaker 1: sixty one, USC at fifty nine, Michigan at fifty six,

620
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: and Auburn at fifty three. So the history says that

621
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 1: all of these teams, including Auburn at fifty three percent,

622
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 1: technically all have a chance to win a national championship.

623
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: But obviously we don't think that all these teams are

624
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: gonna even be in a position to win a national championship.

625
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: And that's why expansion of the tournament, because if you

626
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 1: get like eight of these teams in the tournament, technically

627
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: any of those teams can win historically, So I do

628
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: think that there are going to be like, there aren't

629
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: gonna be upsets like VOW VCU over you know, perdue

630
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: in basketball.

631
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 2: No, but if we had this last year and we

632
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 2: ended up with Oregon and Georgia in the national championship

633
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 2: when they weren't even included, would you have been surprised?

634
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have.

635
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: No, No, because they were all teams that you thought

636
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: could possibly win. So I do think that you're gonna

637
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: get more upsets if you will, from like an eight

638
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: beating a two or something like that. But you're not.

639
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,800
Speaker 1: But those teams are gonna have the blue chip ratio

640
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: that supports.

641
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 2: It, right right, I agree? So that brings us too.

642
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 2: Who are you picking to be in the College Football

643
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,919
Speaker 2: Playoff in twenty twenty four?

644
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 1: I am picking the Oregon Ducks, okay, versus the Georgia

645
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: Bulldogs for the Natty.

646
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,800
Speaker 2: That's your two more than Natty Okay, okay.

647
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: With the Oregon Ducks hoisting the trophy in a revenge

648
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: game because they got the kicked out of them the

649
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: last time Oregon played uh Georgia, which was Dan Lanning's

650
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:17,720
Speaker 1: first year.

651
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 2: Man. So I have I also have Oregon there. I

652
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 2: have Oregon there, and I'm going way out on a

653
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 2: limb with this one. This is Clemson's last stand. I

654
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 2: know it's a weird. I know it's a weird pick,

655
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 2: but I have Oregon over Klin. I believe that an

656
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 2: ACC schedule is going to have them pretty fresh. When

657
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 2: you won't hear I don't think I'll have to say

658
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 2: those words out loud. We'll see, We'll see. But I

659
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 2: do have Oregon winn the National Championship. You and I

660
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 2: are both on Oregon, which is weird. I mean, it's

661
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 2: not weird that you on Oregon. I think everybody knows that,

662
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 2: Ralph Ralph.

663
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 1: I literally almost did not say them because now I

664
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: don't care about people calling me a homer any of

665
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 1: that stuff, because I said Washington was better last year,

666
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: like I have. You know, I'm and I hate Washington,

667
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: but I'm going to be objective about the things that

668
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: I see. But I feel like I'm would be a

669
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,839
Speaker 1: mush like, like I don't want to say it because

670
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a mush like. I don't

671
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: want to jinx. What feels like this is one of

672
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: them years that I'm like, George, relax, relax, relax, relax,

673
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:42,760
Speaker 1: Like just just eat, just don't talk about it. It's

674
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: almost like when a pitcher gets a no hitter or

675
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,760
Speaker 1: a perfect game and I know that we are only

676
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 1: in the we're in the fifth inning right now, and

677
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: you're like, how's.

678
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 2: No why it's weird as we're two weeks away from

679
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 2: that start. It's not even the fifth inning. You're talking

680
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 2: about No.

681
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: I'm saying the fifth inning. No, I'm saying it's the

682
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 1: reason why I said this the fifth inning is because

683
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,880
Speaker 1: the first few innings are the recruiting, the coaching, the like, like,

684
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 1: you got to get all the tools in place to

685
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,240
Speaker 1: be able to even get there. So I'm saying that

686
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 1: that that was the first four innings and the season

687
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: is like fifth through eighth, and then the ninth inning

688
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 1: is the playoff. So I like, I'm looking at when

689
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 1: I'm looking at these schedules, Ralph, I am trying to

690
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: find a situation to where Oregon is like, I don't

691
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: want to talk about it, but I'm like, how do

692
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: they not if we're looking at this schedule route, how

693
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: is this not a team that makes the playoff? And

694
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,320
Speaker 1: because in the Big ten, ten wins is going to

695
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: get you in the playoff.

696
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 2: How many Big ten teams do you have in period?

697
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: I had four and then I whittled it down to three.

698
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: But I do think that there is a chance that

699
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: a fourth gets in. And it's probably the most likely

700
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 1: scenario that we get four from the SCC, four from

701
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 1: the Big ten, the at large and ACC and a

702
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:50,280
Speaker 1: big oh weh, sorry a Big twelve and two ACC teams.

703
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 2: I have four in and I have my last two

704
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 2: out are an ACC and a Big twelve. I think

705
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 2: they might only get one in each. But I do

706
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 2: think if if the Big ten gets three or four teams,

707
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 2: the idea that Oregon wouldn't be one of those, I

708
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 2: don't see that happening.

709
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you just got to get into the tournament.

710
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:10,919
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the thing is you got to get

711
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 1: to the tournament to be able to win and yeah

712
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 1: and yeah, with that, I think it's gonna be hard

713
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: for them not to be able to win, well, not

714
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 1: to get in the tournament at least, and then from there, Listen, man,

715
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a gauntlet to get through it.

716
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 2: So let me give you my twelve, and you tell

717
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 2: me if you have them in or don't have them in. Okay, Okay, Clemson.

718
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: Okay, Clemson, do not have them in?

719
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 2: Okay? Oregon? You said, yes, Ohio State, yep, Penn State, yes,

720
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 2: Georgia obviously. You said they're going to the NATY oh

721
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 2: miss yes, missoo no, okay, So that's one that's different.

722
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 1: You talk, yes, liberty, Big twelve qualified.

723
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,919
Speaker 2: Okay, Liberty, Yes, even though I've.

724
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: Been rethinking that, but I came back to it because

725
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: I think that Liberty and we can cover this real quick.

726
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 1: Is so obviously there's of the twelve teams, there is

727
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,720
Speaker 1: the four conference champions that get in. So from the ACC,

728
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: Big Ten, Big twelve, and ACC, all four of those

729
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,919
Speaker 1: are going to get in and be the top four

730
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: seeds you know, NFL style where they get there, so

731
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna get the buy. And then you have eight

732
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 1: team and well, and then you have the highest power

733
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: non power five school that gets in, and then the

734
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 1: rest are at large bids. And I thought about going

735
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: with Boise State, but Boise State plays Oregon this year,

736
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: and if they get their absolute doors blown off, and

737
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: then you have another school like Liberty or somebody who's

738
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,480
Speaker 1: in the mix, I think that they're gonna get voted

739
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,719
Speaker 1: over because they're not gonna want to put them in

740
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: the playoff again if they just got just absolutely destroyed

741
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 1: by Oregon.

742
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: I actually took a surprise school out to put them

743
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,840
Speaker 2: in because I realized when I made this list that

744
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 2: I had forgotten them. Notre Dame.

745
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, so Notre Dame is in my top twelve.

746
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 2: Iowa I know you have them close. Do you actually

747
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 2: have them in No?

748
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. Okay, they're not going to be able to

749
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: muster enough offense to get enough wins. All right.

750
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 2: I know the answer to this because you said you

751
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 2: only had three Big ten teams are actually they're an

752
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 2: SEC team? Center mind? Oklahoma? Do you have Oklahoma in No?

753
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 2: Okay I do? And then Alabama. That's my twelve yeh,

754
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 2: I do?

755
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: Okay, So read them in order for me?

756
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,960
Speaker 2: Okay. I don't know the order they'll actually be ranked,

757
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,120
Speaker 2: but this is what I have. Clemson, Oregon, Ohio State,

758
00:45:51,320 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 2: Penn State, Georgia, Ole, Miss, Miszoo, Utah, Liberty, Notre Dame, Iowa, Oklahoma, Alabama.

759
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: Okay. I ranked my twelve in order Georgia one okay,

760
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 1: Oregon two, Florida State three, and Utah four. That those

761
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: are going to be your four buys, okay. And then

762
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:25,360
Speaker 1: I got Texas, Ohio State, Ole, Miss, Penn State, Notre Dame, Alabama, Miami,

763
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 1: and Liberty.

764
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 2: Okay. So you're three different than me. Is you got

765
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 2: some acc respect in there? You have Florida State, you

766
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 2: have Miami, and then Texas. I do not have anything.

767
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I switched out Miami with Michigan, because when

768
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,759
Speaker 1: I did this a few months ago, I had Michigan in.

769
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 1: But with all the turmoil that's going on, I think

770
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: that they're going to have a little bit of a

771
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: problem over there. And obviously Alex org at quarterbacks young

772
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: and you know that they've lost a lot. I think

773
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard for them. But when we were

774
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 1: doing this list, I started thinking about the conferences in general, right,

775
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 1: and we have the teams that we believe that are

776
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:18,480
Speaker 1: gonna win the conferences as well, and I believe that

777
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 1: we are going to, like if we look at the

778
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 1: Big twelve ro we both believe that Utah is gonna

779
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: win the Big Twelve. But the competitors for the Big Twelve,

780
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: I think are that, oh that the only teams that

781
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 1: legitimately have a shot to win the Big Twelve. Obviously

782
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: health with standing. For these top teams, I think Utah

783
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,759
Speaker 1: is far and away the leader in the clubhouse. And

784
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,799
Speaker 1: then we got Oklahoma State and Arizona have an outside shot.

785
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 2: And possibly Case State if they can get some replacement

786
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 2: production at quarterback.

787
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, But I do like the Avery Johnson kid.

788
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:03,239
Speaker 1: I think he's I have a legitimate shot. And then

789
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: in the ACC I have Florida State winning and you

790
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: clearly have Clemson winning, but I have but I think

791
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 1: that Miami, because of their schedule and how friendly their

792
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 1: schedule is, that they're going to have a legitimate shot

793
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: to win as well.

794
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 2: So who were your four conference champions of the Big Four?

795
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: Oh, it is Utah, Florida State, Oregon, and.

796
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 2: Georgia And so yeah, our only difference there is I

797
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 2: have Clemson. So that brings us to another big prediction

798
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 2: heading into the season. Who do you think is going

799
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 2: to be on the Heisman stage at the end of

800
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 2: this year.

801
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 1: Now, I want to give a caveat here. I love

802
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: the history of the Heisman Trophy, the pageantry, So I

803
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: don't want to sound like I'm poo pooing on the

804
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy because I aspire to be a Heisman voter.

805
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 1: I love the history of the award. I do believe

806
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 1: that there is that we're missing the mark on the

807
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: award a little bit. And this is where I would

808
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,399
Speaker 1: do something different as a voter, which is it is

809
00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: not the best player or it's not the quarterback on

810
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,799
Speaker 1: one of the best teams in the country. I'm going

811
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 1: to be trying to take a holistic view of not

812
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: who can win the Heisman, but voting for the people

813
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: who have put up the best seasons and have been

814
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: the most important to their team. Like you have to

815
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:49,439
Speaker 1: have the greatness of the season mixed with everything else.

816
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 1: So but the question is who's going to be on

817
00:49:56,840 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 1: that stage. So that's my caveat. I have my finalists.

818
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:08,279
Speaker 1: I went with four finalists. Dylan Gabriel okay from a

819
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 1: quarterback at Oregon, Will Howard, quarterback at Ohio State. Because

820
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 1: if he's not on that stage, Ryan Day's getting fired.

821
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: I mean that's just the truth. Like that, that means

822
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:25,439
Speaker 1: that Ohio State didn't That means they lost at least

823
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 1: two games if he's not on that stage because and

824
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 1: then the reason why they would have lost this because

825
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 1: he didn't play well. So Jylen Milroe, because he's with

826
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:43,560
Speaker 1: Kayln de Boor, and after what happened with Michael Pennick Jr.

827
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 1: And what Jaln Milroe has shown us already adding in

828
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,400
Speaker 1: some Kaylin de Boor to it, I am fully excited

829
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:59,759
Speaker 1: about that kid. And then my last one surprise surprise

830
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,879
Speaker 1: because if this team, this kid can be and This

831
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: is my dark horse spot because there's always somebody who

832
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:08,839
Speaker 1: you know that you didn't expect to be in there,

833
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 1: in there, and he can get on this stage even

834
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 1: with Jylen Milrod there too, because his team can beat them.

835
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: And that is Nico E. Almalava quarterback.

836
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 2: Wow. Okay, So I was in a gas station in

837
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 2: uh at by Nyland Stadium which is now Pilot Nayland

838
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 2: Stadium or whatever with that they got that gasoline money

839
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,840
Speaker 2: and they were selling magazines by the Register. This is

840
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago, and it said Nico Iamalva

841
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 2: Heisman candidate, and I was like, damn, this is the

842
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:49,880
Speaker 2: most homer magazine I've ever seen in my life. But

843
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,439
Speaker 2: now here we are on college football apostles and you're

844
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 2: throwing some weight behind him. I think that that's a

845
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 2: fun pick. Yeah, I really super dark.

846
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 1: Kid working out for a very long time, known him

847
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,359
Speaker 1: and his family. So, but that's not why he's on

848
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 1: the list. I think that him being at Tennessee, Tennessee's

849
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: roster potential, the fact that they have an opportunity to

850
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: beat Alabama, beat some other big time schools that are

851
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,759
Speaker 1: going to be notable. He plays well in those games,

852
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a chance to be on the stage.

853
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,799
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Well, we share two of them, and I

854
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 2: think that they're going to be the ultimately the two finalists.

855
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 2: I think it's going to come down to Dylan Gabriel

856
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 2: or Jalen Milrow. So I'm with you on that. I

857
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 2: have Brady Cook on here because if.

858
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:35,920
Speaker 1: They get to the College Football Playoff, they could could

859
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:37,840
Speaker 1: like it's the same situation.

860
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm with I'm with you one hundred percent.

861
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,359
Speaker 2: If he repeats what he did last year and they

862
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 2: find a way to get into the college Football Playoff,

863
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 2: I think there'll be some consideration there. You could probably

864
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 2: throw Jackson Dart in there too, But I like I

865
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,479
Speaker 2: like Brady Cook a little bit more. Here's my dark horse,

866
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 2: and I actually have them just outside and you might

867
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 2: think I'm crazy. I just have them right outside the

868
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:59,439
Speaker 2: college Football Playoff. Karen Drones, quarterback Virginia Tech.

869
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 1: Dude, if Virginia Tech can find a way to get

870
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,799
Speaker 1: in the a SEC Championship, he will legit. It will

871
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 1: be because he was.

872
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:13,239
Speaker 2: Not because of its spectacular Yeah yeah, and he I mean,

873
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,360
Speaker 2: I look, and this is silly, I know. Seventeen touchdowns,

874
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 2: three interceptions, eight hundred yards rushing. Do you know who

875
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 2: did that a year before they blew up? I do, Yeah,

876
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 2: so Jayden Daniels. So I'm not trying to say that

877
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,920
Speaker 2: the same first of all Kyen Drones looks like he

878
00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 2: ate Jayden Daniels.

879
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 1: But like I, I love my grandmother, but I but

880
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 1: I ate her. But it took a week because she

881
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 1: was fat. Do you know what that's wrong? I do

882
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 1: not mowana. Oh it's the big crab.

883
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,719
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Yeah, so I h that's my dark

884
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 2: horse is is Kyen Drones. But I do think it's

885
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:54,399
Speaker 2: gonna come down to Dylan Gabriel or jayaln Milroe because

886
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,920
Speaker 2: Dylan Gabriel's chasing the all time record for most touchdown

887
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 2: passes in a career, and Dylan Milroe has your boy,

888
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 2: Caitlyn de boor So, And I think I think, like

889
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,399
Speaker 2: in the regular season, Dylan Gabriel is going to break

890
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:10,799
Speaker 2: that record. He's like eighth right now, and so you

891
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:13,320
Speaker 2: know that'll be that'll be interesting. Last one, who you

892
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 2: think is gonna be number one pick in the NFL draft?

893
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 1: Oh, this one is tricky because number one in the

894
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 1: NFL Draft means that you had a great season and

895
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:33,040
Speaker 1: there's some positional value to it as well. I am

896
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,200
Speaker 1: going to go with Travis Hunter.

897
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,319
Speaker 2: I me too. I hate to be controversial, and I

898
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 2: know it's like a quarterback league, but the Panthers probably

899
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 2: gonna have that number one pick, and I think they'll

900
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 2: see enough of a leap at quarterback to not Now

901
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 2: if the Panthers trade out of that pick, it is

902
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:52,800
Speaker 2: what it is. Yeah, but I think I think Travis

903
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:54,719
Speaker 2: Hunter for a team like that, or or like a

904
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,160
Speaker 2: Patriots or one of these teams that already got their

905
00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:58,760
Speaker 2: quarterback in the last couple of years.

906
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think because Dallas Cowboys end up with the

907
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,400
Speaker 1: first overall pick, they picking you. I'm letting you know

908
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 1: that right now.

909
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, that would be that ESPN would uh

910
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 2: there'd be people that at that network that would be

911
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 2: changing their paints if if SA Door Sanders went to

912
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:21,280
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys. We got one final segment this week,

913
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:27,240
Speaker 2: and our listeners and viewers they can play along with this. Uh.

914
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,200
Speaker 2: We last year we came up with a season long

915
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 2: contest and we're gonna be picking games like we always do. Uh.

916
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 2: But this year we came up with a game called

917
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:39,359
Speaker 2: Overrated Underrated. Okay, and so the rules of this game

918
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:41,880
Speaker 2: are very simple. It's gonna sound complicated, but it's very simple.

919
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 2: You and I are gonna draft six teams. Three of

920
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,399
Speaker 2: them have to be teams we believe are overrated, which

921
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 2: means they were picked in the top five of their

922
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 2: power for conference by the media. And for every game

923
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 2: that they lose, we get three points. And for every

924
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,840
Speaker 2: game that they finish a full game under their season

925
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 2: win total, we get five points. And then we'll also

926
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:09,520
Speaker 2: draft three underrated teams. For every win, we'll get three points,

927
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 2: and for every game they finish above the Vegas line

928
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 2: for their season total, we'll get five. It'll be a

929
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 2: season long contest. Will update people as we go, But

930
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 2: the whole point of this is to draft first. We'll go, oh,

931
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 2: the overrated team.

932
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:36,320
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I am going to go with I. Actually

933
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:47,279
Speaker 1: I'll let you go first, Ralph. All right, Well I'll

934
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:53,320
Speaker 1: go first. Then all right, my first, All right, So

935
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,439
Speaker 1: who you got first? Ralph, you get first pick.

936
00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:04,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so my overrated team. Gosh, man, you know this

937
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 2: is tough it. You know, I don't want to be

938
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,359
Speaker 2: I don't want to come off as a as a hater,

939
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 2: but my number one overrated team in the country, I'm

940
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 2: gonna go LSU.

941
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 1: Damn Ah, you stole one of my picks.

942
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 2: So they were predicted to finish what fifth in the SEC? Yes,

943
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 2: I believe their season win total is somewhere around nine.

944
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 2: I'm looking for my paper where I wrote all this

945
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 2: stuff down, but I actually have it right here. So

946
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:45,800
Speaker 2: the predicted according to bet online dot ag a predicted

947
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 2: win total for LSU this year and again they were

948
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:52,600
Speaker 2: picked fifth in the SEC, is nine wins. So every

949
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,479
Speaker 2: full game they finish under that, I'm gonna get five

950
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 2: points and for every loss this year, I'm gonna get

951
00:57:58,160 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 2: three points.

952
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: All right. My team that I am going with overrated team,

953
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 1: a team that you have in the college football playoffs?

954
00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:21,920
Speaker 2: It wow, okay? And I believe what they were picked

955
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 2: maybe second, yep okay, and they're Their overall win total

956
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:32,280
Speaker 2: this year is also at nine, which is which is

957
00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 2: interesting for a team that was picked second. That gives

958
00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:39,640
Speaker 2: me to the second pick. I'm going to keep it

959
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 2: in the ACC actually, and I'm gonna rock with Florida State.

960
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:48,439
Speaker 2: So my my, I believe they were predicted to win

961
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 2: the ACC. I do not believe that that will happen

962
00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 2: this year. And they're set at nine and a half wins,

963
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 2: So again, three points for every loss this year, five

964
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,959
Speaker 2: points for every full loss behind their predicted season total,

965
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 2: which is at nine and a half right now.

966
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 1: And what are the win totals for Kansas State and

967
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:10,479
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State?

968
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's go over to the Big twelve. Currently,

969
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 2: the and that's when we lock it in is when

970
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 2: they get drafted. Kansas State is sitting at nine and

971
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 2: a half and Oklahoma State is sitting at eight and

972
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 2: a half for their predicted season total.

973
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:32,200
Speaker 1: Give me Kansas State.

974
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:39,000
Speaker 2: Okay, that's an interesting second pick. That's a really interesting

975
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,680
Speaker 2: second pick. But that's also a really really high wind total.

976
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's not because I don't think that Kansas

977
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:49,440
Speaker 1: I just think that they're gonna win less than ten games. Okay,

978
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,920
Speaker 1: So I feel safe and you know, like they can

979
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:54,920
Speaker 1: still have a good season at eight and four and

980
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 1: then play their bowl game and everything be Okay.

981
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 2: Of course, man, this is tough, all right. So let's

982
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 2: see my final pick. Huh, you went Big twelve and ACC.

983
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 2: I went SEC and ACC so uh let's oh, this

984
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 2: is tough, man, was Michigan picked to finish in the

985
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:38,440
Speaker 2: top five of the Big Ten is the question? Uh?

986
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:39,919
Speaker 1: Yes, they were picked number four.

987
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so Michigan will be my third pick and I'll

988
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 2: finish with who of.

989
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:50,000
Speaker 1: My teams I should have drafted Michigan already? Damn it?

990
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:53,920
Speaker 1: All right, cool, I'm going for my last pick with

991
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,919
Speaker 1: another Big Ten team to I'll take Iowa.

992
01:00:56,600 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 2: Then, okay, Okay, So then the produce.

993
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 1: Events like the way that they used to win is

994
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: not gonna hold up in this new Big Tip.

995
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 2: So I was sitting at eight and uh and Michigan

996
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:10,480
Speaker 2: is is sitting at eight and a half. So that'll

997
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 2: be interesting. Let's move on to our underrated teams, all.

998
01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 1: Right, our underrated teams. Okay, so I will drafts first here. Okay,

999
01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 1: So you took to of my teams and you should

1000
01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:25,520
Speaker 1: not have let me in on this Texas Tech Secret basis.

1001
01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:31,920
Speaker 2: Oh my gods, no, this is gonna do some serious

1002
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 2: damage to the narrative that you are a Red Raider

1003
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 2: hater because you're calling them one of them underrated teams. Now,

1004
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:42,040
Speaker 2: they were picked ninth, which I think is pretty crazy. Uh,

1005
01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 2: they were picking ninth in the in the Big twelve. Now,

1006
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 2: the win total is gonna be a little tough. I

1007
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,040
Speaker 2: think it's at seven and a half. Let me let

1008
01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:54,800
Speaker 2: me confirm that. So the win total is not great,

1009
01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:57,920
Speaker 2: but they could I mean, no, it's seven and a half.

1010
01:01:58,040 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 2: Seven and a half. That's actually pretty good for a

1011
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 2: team that might win nine ten games.

1012
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 1: Okay, So here's their schedule, so we got we went

1013
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:10,360
Speaker 1: over it earlier. Abilene, Christian Washington State, North Texas, Arizona State,

1014
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:17,200
Speaker 1: and Cincinnati. They can start out five and oh man, okay,

1015
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 1: and they can get Baylor. They're not gonna beat Arizona.

1016
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:24,600
Speaker 1: Probably they can get Baylor. They could get TCU, Iowa, Colorado,

1017
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:28,400
Speaker 1: bro disculd. They gonna be staring at nine wins. Down

1018
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 1: in the face, buddy.

1019
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 2: Okay, So you had your homer moment and I joined

1020
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 2: you in picking Oregon to win the national championship. Now

1021
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 2: comes my homer moment. Pick to finish last in the

1022
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:42,600
Speaker 2: Big twelve with a win total of four and a half.

1023
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,720
Speaker 2: I'm going the Sun Devils. Arizona State is my first

1024
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 2: pick for my underrated draft. Their win total is at

1025
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 2: four and a half. They might enter conference play three

1026
01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 2: and oh, it's a real possibility. So I'm going to

1027
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 2: Arizona State.

1028
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: Ute. I was gonna take Arizona State second.

1029
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:02,040
Speaker 2: Great mindstickle like my friend great minds think of Like,

1030
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:07,080
Speaker 2: who is your second pick in our overrated underrated contest?

1031
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:11,520
Speaker 1: Is Oklahoma?

1032
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 2: Is Oklahoma a bottom half team?

1033
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:23,160
Speaker 1: I believe one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight?

1034
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:24,919
Speaker 1: Oh damn? There at number eight?

1035
01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, they gotta be nine or below, which means that

1036
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 2: the sec list starts with Texas A and M Okay.

1037
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:33,680
Speaker 1: So in that case, give me.

1038
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 2: Give me Florida, Okay. Five and a half wins is

1039
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 2: the current prediction. You believe that seven wins is possible

1040
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 2: and that eight wins is almost impossible. Yes, so this

1041
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 2: is an interesting pick for you, based on a full

1042
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:56,080
Speaker 2: off season of not not smack talk but analysis. Yeah,

1043
01:03:56,280 --> 01:04:02,960
Speaker 2: I think that was a very very interesting pick. So, man, I'm.

1044
01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:05,480
Speaker 1: Gonna go last pick. I'm screwed because because I because

1045
01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:09,320
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma I had four teams well sorry, five teams there,

1046
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:12,280
Speaker 1: and you took well one of them in Oklahoma wasn't

1047
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:16,000
Speaker 1: available because I can't count, and you took Arizona State.

1048
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 1: So so if you choose my last one, I'm screwed.

1049
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 2: I don't think this one's even on your radar, does

1050
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:25,120
Speaker 2: a deep cut for me? My My second pick for

1051
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:29,040
Speaker 2: most underrated is gonna be University of Pittsburgh because their

1052
01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:31,360
Speaker 2: win total is sitting at five and a half. I

1053
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:35,480
Speaker 2: think they had an uncharacteristically bad season last year. I

1054
01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:37,600
Speaker 2: don't know if they're gonna be short up at quarterback,

1055
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,760
Speaker 2: but that guy they have coming in from Alabama, Eli Holstein,

1056
01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:43,240
Speaker 2: my guy Chili, swears that he's going to take over

1057
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 2: college football. So in the event that you said love,

1058
01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:50,880
Speaker 2: he does, love, he does. So I'm gonna I'm gonna

1059
01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:53,040
Speaker 2: ride with Chili on this one. I'm gonna go Pittsburgh

1060
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:56,240
Speaker 2: for my number two at five and a half wins.

1061
01:04:55,960 --> 01:05:01,760
Speaker 1: Okay, And for my last pick, I'm taking UCLA La Bruins.

1062
01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, they were. They were predicted to finish what

1063
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:10,040
Speaker 2: third to last in the in the Big Ten. They're

1064
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,400
Speaker 2: at five and a half? Is there is their win total?

1065
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:13,680
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1066
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,360
Speaker 2: Okay, man, you really did take my number one pick.

1067
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,160
Speaker 2: And I I I'm I'm, I'm I'm scrambling a little bit.

1068
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:27,080
Speaker 2: I as a former Pac twelve apostle, I think I

1069
01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,600
Speaker 2: have to go with Troy Taylor and Stanford because they're

1070
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:31,480
Speaker 2: sitting at a three and a three and a half.

1071
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:34,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh that's a good one because you could get

1072
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:35,920
Speaker 1: up to six and that one that would give you

1073
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 1: some some good some good points right there.

1074
01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:42,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so, but I also they they could get wrecked,

1075
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 2: so high risk, high reward. My final pick uh Stanford
