1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 2: The best part about college football in some ways is

3
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 2: it eventually it kind of takes care of itself. Eventually

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 2: we see the cream rise to the top and the

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 2: chaos that we all about every single.

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: Week normalize this.

7
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 2: This week feels like the sort of week where we

8
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: can finally get some answers as we sit right now,

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 2: questions like does USC have an outside path that the

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 2: college football playoffs are being answered in front of our

11
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 2: very eyes, and yes we have.

12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 1: Cupcakes that we just have to survive through.

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: But through it all, every single week a little bit

14
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 2: more elimination happens, and I'm here for it.

15
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 1: He's Buck rising up Jason fitz.

16
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 2: Bucket fits on Fox Sports Radio Big Day, Big day

17
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: in college football because USC organ going on right now.

18
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: And I know most of you guys don't care about

19
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: us the organ because it's West Coast football and most

20
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 2: people don't care.

21
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 1: About West Coast football, but you do.

22
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'm just being East Coast bias, but

23
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 2: I'm just being honest. Buck, Like you give me a

24
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: little bit of a weird head nod there. But if

25
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,279
Speaker 2: the show is in Los Angeles. Skipped out on us

26
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 2: last week to go to a USC game and you

27
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: open up by saying, nobody cares about this football game.

28
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: That's about the closest football game being played right now,

29
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: is Notre Dame dog.

30
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 3: Walks Syracuse fifty six to.

31
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: Not talking shocking.

32
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 2: No, Look, I mean the numbers are what the numbers are.

33
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: I mean, I get, okay, you care that, that's why

34
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 2: you care. I get that you care, and there's always

35
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 2: gonna be a you care on that. But like, let's

36
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: be honest here, the numbers are never quite the same

37
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: for Oregon USC as they are for I don't know, Alabama,

38
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 2: Georgia or like, like, well, just be honest about this,

39
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 2: like Michigan versus Ohio State, Like Oregon USC is not

40
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 2: out here. Just the world isn't shutting down. Every sports

41
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 2: bar in America isn't flocking to put this game on TV.

42
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: What happens is we say, oh, that's.

43
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 2: A good game, and people are like, oh, really like

44
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 2: West Coast unfortunate. As a kid that grew up on

45
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: the West Coast, I accept the fact that a large

46
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: portion of the country doesn't pay the same level of

47
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: attention to West Coast college football.

48
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a hot take.

49
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 3: Bok Ian, How does it feel to be a second

50
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 3: class citizen?

51
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 4: WHOA, that's such a weird way of putting it. Yeah,

52
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 4: flag for sure, thank you.

53
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: No, no, no, not flag on me. He's telling you that

54
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 3: that's not me. I'm pointing out the behavior that Jason

55
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 3: Fitz has opened the show yet again. How many weeks

56
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: can we go consecutively?

57
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 4: Radio, it's the biggest game of the day, game day

58
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,679
Speaker 4: was so people care for sure. Like if there was

59
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 4: literally not was Michigan Ohio State going on today, obviously

60
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 4: that would take president. But this is the biggest game

61
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 4: of the day. It's a great game ahead.

62
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 3: Sell me on Texas, Arkansas fits a Notre Dame, Syracuse, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Tennessee.

63
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 2: Look, I make my living in part because of my

64
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 2: love of college football. I look, at the end of

65
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 2: the day, I'm not saying that anybody on the West

66
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: Coast is a second second class citizen. I'm saying there's

67
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: a whole bunch of the nation that just doesn't pay

68
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: the same level of attention. They just released the top

69
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 2: ten most watched football programs over the course of the

70
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 2: last year.

71
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: Neither of them were named USC or Oregon, Like, I'm not.

72
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: This is not a.

73
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 2: Hot take that the base everything west of the Colorado,

74
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: the Rockies isn't paying the East. I should say, if

75
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 2: the Rockies isn't paying the same level of attention to

76
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 2: West Coast football, it's the reason that every week people.

77
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 5: Say, listen, I'm not trying to cut you off, but

78
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 5: just real quickly, I'm here on the West Coast. I've

79
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 5: been here ten years. Half of Los Angeles doesn't even

80
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 5: know this game is being played right now. And with

81
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 5: you one hundred that's true, that's true.

82
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: But over the grand scheme of college football, this is

83
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: the best game of the day.

84
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, well that's the SEC's fault for scheduling. Mercer and

85
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 5: ourad know what do we? I mean, not only we started,

86
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 5: this is their show. But I just gotta I stand

87
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 5: with you on the West coast part.

88
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: Thank you.

89
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: Like I look, I said this when I moved to Nashville,

90
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: I was like, all right, what's the college football thing?

91
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: Everybody cares about it.

92
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 2: I grew up in Vegas, Like, not a single person

93
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 2: in Vegas twenty years ago was sitting there saying go

94
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: check out UNLV football. Even now, UNLV football played Hawaii

95
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: last night. I watched it. Did anybody else? No, Like, yeah,

96
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: I hear you, it's the best game of the day

97
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 2: in college football.

98
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: All right, Well what does that mean? Like there are

99
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: times where you walk up to the movie means it's.

100
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 3: A college football Saturday and there's nothing else on. What

101
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: else are you gonna watch? What do you mean? What

102
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 3: does that mean? That is compleating total nonsense? How many

103
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: consecutive weeks are we gonna go with you starting the

104
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 3: show by saying this grand thing that nobody actually cares about,

105
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 3: but we're gonna start with it anyway. Is here in

106
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 3: front of you stick with us for the next two hours.

107
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 3: I could grab you by your tiny little shoulders and

108
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 3: shake you.

109
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:25,239
Speaker 1: Look.

110
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 2: I think that there's consequence to Oregon USC. I was

111
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: actually saying the other side. I was saying, Hey, you

112
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: may not be paying attention to it, but you should,

113
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 2: because at least we can eliminate USC from the college

114
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 2: football playoff conversation. If USC had won today against Oregon,

115
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: and they still might, I mean, there's still time left.

116
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:41,679
Speaker 1: To be played in this game.

117
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,479
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to be beacon a light, right, There's

118
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,799
Speaker 2: still time to be played in this game. If USC wins,

119
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 2: things get wildly complicated. My grander point here was that

120
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 2: even through the irrelevance most people feel about this game,

121
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 2: it is relevant because it is a factor that needed

122
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 2: to happen, Like some of these games just need to happen,

123
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 2: so we can end into certain conversations. Can USC play

124
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 2: their way into the college football playoff answers?

125
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 6: No?

126
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: Will Oregon get a ton of respect from this game?

127
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

128
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: You know that these are the things so we get answers.

129
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 2: I actually enjoy. You find this to be cynical. I

130
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 2: find this to just be a realist that's stacking my

131
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: bricks of logic to make perfectly normal sense.

132
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 3: I'm upset. I'm just generally upset at this point in time.

133
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: I'm promise me.

134
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: Oh, well, Vandy needs Tennessee to win tonight, and they

135
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 3: haven't won in the Swamp since two thousand and three,

136
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: so Vandy needs more than beating up on a bad

137
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 3: Kentucky team. They got it, starting quarterback knocked out with

138
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 3: a neck injury. Hopefully cutter bowls okay, of course, but yeah,

139
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 3: not much of a contest. Just down the street from

140
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 3: me here in Nashville today, on west end for Vanderbilt,

141
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 3: which is fine. They got to handle business. They got

142
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 3: to win out the rest of the way, and they

143
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 3: still need help in the college football playoff landscape, as

144
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 3: we set up. My bigger issue with the idea that

145
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 3: USC and Oregon has stakes is that Oregon shouldn't be

146
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 3: the seventheth team in the entry fits. I just I

147
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 3: am so confused. When last we met, we talked about

148
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: the idea that the College Football Playoff Selection Committee was

149
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 3: changing the chair because of the issues going on with

150
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 3: mac Rhodes and Baylor, and that Hunter, you're a check,

151
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 3: the Arkansas athletic director would be now the new chair,

152
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 3: and they would bring in an additional athletic director to

153
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 3: fill the voting seat and all these different things. And

154
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 3: you asked me the question about, you know, how much

155
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 3: could this impact the College Football Playoff rankings and all

156
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 3: of these things, And I was like, I mean, I

157
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 3: don't know. We didn't know how much it was impacting

158
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 3: things beforehand, other than whatever the chair at the time

159
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 3: would say to Rees Davis on these Tuesday night shows

160
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 3: that nobody, I don't think really pays that close attention

161
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 3: to you just wake up the next day on Wednesday morning,

162
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 3: check the rankings and see what you're mad about. But Oregon,

163
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 3: if you want to talk about things that people are

164
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 3: actually not watching, Oregon being the seventh ranked team in

165
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 3: the country is my biggest issue of any of these things,

166
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 3: even beyond Miami being ranked below Notre Dame, which has

167
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 3: taken up a lot of oxygen this week.

168
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: You think Oregon is too low at seven, I'm presuming from.

169
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 3: The way they talk, I think Oregon has no business

170
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 3: in the top ten.

171
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: That's what I mean. You think Oregon's too high? Correct

172
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: the problem that?

173
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: Okay, I hear you, But where is the great deserving

174
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 2: team that's being left out by Oregon being ranked.

175
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 1: Where they are?

176
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: Like, do you believe today on a neutral football field

177
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: that there are teams below them that would be better? Like,

178
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 2: I don't have any faith in Texas that we're watching

179
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: today against Arkas.

180
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: I don't have any faith in Texas.

181
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 2: I don't have any faith in most of the teams

182
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 2: that are sitting sort of in that middle ground right now, right,

183
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 2: Like that's a hard part, right, I hear you. I

184
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: don't think like is oklhobe Notre Dame is better than Oregon?

185
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 2: And I think Notre Dame is going to rise after

186
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: what they did today. I think, you know, Notre Dame

187
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 2: is going to continue to get some respect. Would you

188
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,559
Speaker 2: put a two loss Alabama team above a one loss

189
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 2: Oregon team right now?

190
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 3: I think the resume is better. I acknowledge that one

191
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: less loss on the season would probably be the greatest argument.

192
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 3: But if you're talking about as tough as stretch as

193
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 3: any team has faced so far this season, you could

194
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 3: bring up oklahoma schedule, and oklahoma schedule has not been easy,

195
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 3: and they've managed the situation quite well. It was an

196
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 3: ugly win today at home seventeen to six over ranked Mazoo,

197
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 3: but that was a win that they needed and I

198
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: fully expect that, you know, I mean, even if Oregon wins,

199
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 3: I would advocate for Oklahoma to be ranked above Oregon.

200
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: I would also advocate for Alabama to be ranked above

201
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: Oregon given the situation that they played and beat four

202
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 3: ranked opponents consecutively during the meat of their schedule and

203
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 3: then lost to Oklahoma and at home, and that it

204
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 3: was a bad loss for them at the time, given

205
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 3: where they were and how far they fell, and the

206
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: way that they looked while doing it. What three turnovers

207
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 3: did Oklahoma force on Alabama in that game, and again

208
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 3: to lose at Tuscaloosa hurts them additionally. But yeah, I mean,

209
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 3: I get that I could easily be accused of SEC

210
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 3: bias because of where I live in the country, in Nashville,

211
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 3: and how much more I think SEC football means than

212
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,319
Speaker 3: anywhere else in the country. The depth of the conference

213
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 3: greater than anywhere else in the country. And I don't

214
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 3: want to discount Oregon because Oregon's just playing who's in

215
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: front of them. And yeah, they got beat up in

216
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 3: a second half by a better Indiana team. It's the

217
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 3: number two team in the country, but that happened at

218
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 3: home as well. I give greater weight to SEC schedules,

219
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 3: probably than most people. I may accept the argument that

220
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 3: I have a little bit of bias there.

221
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 2: Well, here's what's hard, and this is why what we

222
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 2: talked about last week with the Ites Committee matters, right,

223
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 2: because you mentioned.

224
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: Briefly, but it's worth at least exploring here.

225
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: Miami has a win over Notre Dame, but Notre Dame

226
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 2: is ranked well ahead of Miami in the College Football

227
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: Playoff frankings, And what does that remind us? It doesn't

228
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 2: tell us anything that reminds us because we already heard this.

229
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 2: This is an itest committee, right, and so even your check,

230
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 2: the committee chair said flat out that Miami and Notre

231
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: Dame were not viewed as close enough in the eyes

232
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 2: of the committee to even have a conversation about their

233
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: head to head matchup. So what they're telling you is that, hey, guys,

234
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 2: like much like if we were power ranking the NFL today,

235
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 2: they're basically telling you that Miami beating Notre Dame is

236
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 2: the equivalent of the Raiders beating the Patriots in Week one.

237
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: There's no meaning to it. The committee is.

238
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 2: Taking that that level of flippancy to a head to

239
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 2: head matchup. They're essentially saying that happened then, and we

240
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 2: don't care about it. And I think when you have

241
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 2: an eye test committee, it gets a little dangerous. I

242
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 2: don't know how the eye test Committee values the entirety

243
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,719
Speaker 2: of the SEC, but I would tell you that I.

244
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: Don't think that they have the same level of SEC.

245
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: I don't want to say biased, so I will say

246
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 2: leaning that many people have, because if they did, Alabama

247
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: would be higher. Oregon really hasn't played anybody, and I

248
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 2: wonder how much all of this comes back to what

249
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: we expected of Oregon.

250
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: Coming into the season, Like we thought Oregon was going

251
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: to be really good.

252
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 2: So now we just presume that Oregon is really good,

253
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 2: even though they haven't truly been tested by much of

254
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 2: anything on their schedule. So I see both sides of it.

255
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: I'm truly I'm glad I'm not in the committee. I'm

256
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 2: glad I'm not in the committee because you could make

257
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 2: the argument to me that Alabama is better. I tell

258
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,359
Speaker 2: people all the time, though, the College Football Playoffs Committee's

259
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 2: job is not to find the best or the most deserving.

260
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 2: It's to find the best of the most deserving. So

261
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: where is that line for everybody? Now, you've got a

262
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: ven diagram that gets really weird because Alabama has a

263
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 2: couple of losses.

264
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: And one of them looks awful.

265
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: So what do you do with a couple of losses

266
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 2: where one of them is a bad loss right now?

267
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,959
Speaker 2: Versus a team like let's say Notre Dame that's out here,

268
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: that has two losses by combined fourteen four points.

269
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: That look like they're really good. Right.

270
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 2: So that's where all of these these ven diagrams come

271
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 2: together in such a weird way.

272
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 3: I never thought that I would wish for the BCS again,

273
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 3: but I just I cannot stand them hoping everything.

274
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:58,959
Speaker 1: You want a computer, you want to comput you want

275
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: robots to rule the world. Do you want robotoms? Don't you?

276
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,439
Speaker 3: I mean, it's fine. At least we would get things

277
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 3: more correct on a regular basis instead of having and

278
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 3: I listen, I harbor no ill will for the Arkansas

279
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 3: Athletic Director Hunter Eurochek, But like the whole purpose of

280
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 3: this show on Tuesday nights, where the rankings are announced,

281
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 3: where the selections, the most recent selections are made, as

282
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,599
Speaker 3: they stack things as we get closer and closer to

283
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 3: the college football playoff, Hunter Eurrochek is not good television.

284
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 3: Nor did he cover himself in glory with his explanations

285
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 3: this week. Nor do I really care what any of

286
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 3: these people have to say when the argument is that

287
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 3: they are waiting losses more than actual wins, which makes

288
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 3: my head explode.

289
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 2: It's all wildly frustrating. You're never frustrated, by the way.

290

Speaker 2: With the iHeartRadio app. I don't know if you know this,

Speaker 2: top of your screen quickly for anybody not paying attention

299
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: to Another quasi elimination game for many would be Utah.

300
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: Utah is trailing Kansas State at the half.

301
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 2: So again another game nobody cares about, but has actionable consequence.

302
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 2: All right, coming up, speaking of something everybody cares about,

303
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 2: Lane Kiffen and why this entire situation has become a nightmare.

304
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 2: We'll tell you about it next these Buck Rising. I'm

305
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 2: Jason Fitzbuck and Fits on.

306
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio.

307
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 6: Hey, we're Cavino and Rich Fox Sports Radio every day

308
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 6: five to seven pm Eastern.

309
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: But here's the thing.

310
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 6: We never have enough time to get to everything we

311
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 6: want to get to.

312
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 7: And that's why we have a brand new podcast called

313
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 7: over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun in

314
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 7: our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,

315

Speaker 7: time for yeah, you blubber list Jam and me.

00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 6: promising women for years.

320

350
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I thought I was gonna give married

351
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: Maack all the credit for that. I figured she was.

352
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 2: She was the one that was going to cut it

353
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 2: off for me. So he's Buck rising up, Jason Fitz.

354
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 1: Look at this.

355
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 2: We are calm, we are cool, we are collected. Buck

356
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: is an elitist. Not so elite though that he would

357
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: take a private jet all the way to Baton Rouge,

358
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 2: only then to have a private jet go to Gainesville

359
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 2: just so everybody tracking the sure you could say he

360
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 2: went to pick up a dog, or you could say

361
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 2: just so everybody tracking a private jet would know that

362
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: the tail number had landed in Gainesville, only to then

363
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 2: go back to Baton Rouge. We are talking about plane tracking,

364
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 2: which for any of you that haven't been keeping up

365
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 2: with the Lane Kiffins saga. Over the last few days,

366
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: there have been people in camouflage hidden in bushes with photography.

367
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: We've got people walking off of the private plane in.

368
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 2: Full covered costumes so that no but he can see

369
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: who's where all in the hunt for Lane Kiffin.

370
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: And here's the thing, Buck, I get it, I get it.

371
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: I get that Ole Miss has been very good.

372
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 2: I get that Old Miss has done incredible things. But

373
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 2: are we really doing all this for Lane Kiffen. Lane Kiffen,

374
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 2: whose reputation to me is once a year Ole Miss

375
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 2: is going to drop a game They shouldn't, right, once

376
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 2: a year Lane Kiffen and ole Miss is gonna do

377
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: just the dumb thing that takes them out of contention.

378
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 2: So far this year hasn't happened. They only have one

379
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 2: loss that probably headed to the college football Playoff. Everything

380
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 2: looks glorious, but this is like the one time we're

381
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 2: talking about the same coach Ben that previously was fired

382
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 2: from every major gig. He had had to go all

383
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: the way back to fi FAU to rebuild his reputation

384
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: to get to ole Miss and at ole Miss even

385
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: with great teams of transfers that we're supposed to contend

386
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 2: for national championships.

387
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: They didn't quite get there.

388
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 2: And now he's going to be the highest paid coach

389
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: and we are sending private jets wherever to whine and

390
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 2: dine him. The man that has no championship rings is

391
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 2: apparently worth this.

392
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 3: I'm a little confused. Well, I guess what are you

393
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 3: confuse by? Like, who's better? Who's a better option right

394
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 3: now than Lane Kiffin's. It's about what you know. It's

395
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 3: like quarterback contracts, right, It's not is two a tongovilla?

396
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 3: I mean the two a tongovillo a contract is going

397
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 3: to age as probably the second worst contract given out

398
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 3: to a quarterback that way, the first, of course being

399
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson. But the larger point is that you're worth

400
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 3: what the market at the time says that you're worth.

401
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 3: And if Lane Kiffin is the most attractive coaching candidate

402
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 3: on the market in a marketplace that has many many

403
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 3: jobs vuying for his services, only three realistically that could

404
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 3: attain his services for the purposes of winning national championships

405
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 3: and resources and recruiting and nil interest. And you know,

406
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 3: I mean even if You've got to deal with this

407
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 3: muppet of a governor down there in Louisiana who's out

408
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 3: here talking about the way that they're going to change

409
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 3: the structure of contracts. Okay, tell him you're going to

410
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 3: get Lane Kiffin and that you need all the money,

411
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 3: and he's going to go to his his not secretary

412
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 3: of state. That's not the right Hambnet office, you know

413
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 3: what I mean, his his treasurer and say we need

414
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 3: more money for Lane Kiffin and the private jet. Make

415
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 3: it happen. I just it's not too hard that wrap

416
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 3: my head around the idea that Lane Kiffin is a

417
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 3: plus in many different forms that if you are frustrated

418
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 3: by his behavior as an old miss fan, that's completely acceptable,

419
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 3: especially if he doesn't coach the Egg Bowl. It's a

420
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 3: weird situation, for sure, where the athletic director is putting

421
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 3: out a statement saying, oh, me and Lane have had

422
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 3: very very productive conversations and we're gonna make announcements. Stay

423
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 3: tuned like it's some kind of radio teas. It's just nonsense,

424
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 3: the way that this whole thing is dragged out, and

425
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 3: it's made worse because Lane delights in it. He loves

426
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 3: being the bell of the ball. But if you have

427
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 3: a problem with Lane Kiffin's behavior, I would ask you,

428
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 3: didn't you know who you were dating the entire time?

429
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 3: Like this is who this person.

430
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: Is, Isn't he supposed to be changed?

431
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 2: Now we're getting the Bible Versus and the hot yoga Like,

432
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 2: oh no.

433
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: I'm not Lane from a few years ago.

434
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 3: He's already toxic women I know in this city Nashville,

435
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 3: Tennessee that cite Bible Versus and do hot yoga? Come on?

436
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 3: That is that was?

437
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 6: That was? That was.

438
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: You got fun? But look it's probably that was rude.

439
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 3: That was rude.

440
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: The sweats like an obnoxious duck too. I was doing

441
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: hot yoga.

442
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: Like the best thing about the South is that they'll

443
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: tell you they love you, and then the minute you

444
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 2: walk out the room, they'll tell you exactly.

445
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: How they feel.

446
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 2: I respect the fact that Buck is at least sitting

447
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 2: in front of a mic when he expresses his opinion

448
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 2: about the the Bible Verse quoting hot yoga doing he

449
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 2: named him though, no, well, I mean you want me to,

450
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 2: I got a list that would be horrible. He's like

451
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: going Santa Claus here. It's like just lays out the

452
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 2: whole list. Checks it twice, Now.

453
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 3: Check it with the trying. Okay, I'm here for this.

454
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: This is one of.

455
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 3: Those I'll name him.

456
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: I'm not, I will very much say it.

457
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 2: So I just feel like I hear you that we

458
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 2: know what we're getting with Lane, and I hear you

459
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 2: that he's the top com the top coach on the market.

460
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 2: So that's what everybody's gonna flock to. Like, you're worth

461
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 2: what you're worth. My question is wins above replacement. Like

462
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 2: we've had this conversation about athletes before, Like, at what

463
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,239
Speaker 2: points do you look around and say, Okay, yeah, this

464
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 2: guy is really worth it. Sure, he's worth whatever the

465
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 2: market will pay. I have no problem with Lane Kiffin

00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,600

00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 2: somebody's gonna pay you ninety million to do that, then

471
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 2: hell yes, you go get you ninety minute. I want

472
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 2: everybody to be rich, fat and happy, like I love

473
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 2: that world, all right. My question is just for what,

474
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,959
Speaker 2: Like every I'm saying this to everybody involved in this,

475
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 2: as I've said to you before Buck.

476
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: The best thing.

477
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 2: About Lane's gig is if he loses that one game

478
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 2: of year, he shouldn't lose. When he goes out to

479
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 2: Denny's with family afterwards, they say, get him next week, coach.

480
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 2: Everything's fine because ole Miss ain't gonna fire him for that.

481
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 3: Right.

482
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 2: If he has the exact same level of success at

483
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 2: LSU that he's had at ole Miss, he'll get fired.

484
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 2: And this is where everybody says, but LSU has so much.

485
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: More for him. He did this at ole Miss.

486
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 2: We're pretending like Olmoss didn't spend substantial amounts of money

487
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 2: last year in nil to go out and get a

488
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,239
Speaker 2: defensive line specifically built to beat Georgia. Like they did that.

489
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 2: They spent the money that they needed to. But we're

490
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 2: pretending that ole Miss isn't at least competitive. Ole Miss

491
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 2: may not have the number one nil budget in the country,

492
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,719
Speaker 2: but they have a top twenty nil budget in the country,

493
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 2: and they've got a coach there that is getting paid

494
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 2: top what he's the ninth highest paid coach in the

495
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 2: market right now. Whatever they're going to offer him in

496
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 2: this process, Like if he stays at ole Miss, he's

497
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 2: a legend now. He goes to LSU and has the

498
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 2: exact same record, he'll get fired. And by the way,

499
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 2: are we really sure that he's that much better than

500
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: any other.

501
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: Coach that we've never heard of. I don't know. I mean,

502
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: I love the.

503
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 2: Concept, but is he really better today than Brian Kelly

504
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: was when he took the LSU job.

505
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: I know it is.

506
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 3: Yes, I have no idea, FITZI, of course you do.

507
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: He got left in the tarmac at USC.

508
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 3: He was thirty two or whatever he was like however

509
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 3: old Lange Kiffin was when he got fired from the

510
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 3: Raiders and the USC job and the Tennessee thing, like

511
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin is a While he may not be that

512
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 3: different of a person, he may have reformed some areas

513
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 3: of his life. There is no question that the coaching

514
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 3: rehab that was his stint at FAU and working with

515
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 3: Nick Saban and learning from Nick Saban has helped this

516
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 3: person understand how to create a successful football program, a

517
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 3: successful football culture, even if at times he's going to

518
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 3: test that culture himself because he's flirting with another girl

519
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 3: at the bar.

520
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: I E.

521
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 3: LSU, Florida, Ole miss whatever that looks like.

522
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 2: You say successful, I say that last year. Last year

523
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 2: was a failure for almost compared to what was expected

524
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 2: of Almoss.

525
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 3: It's the most successful season in ole Miss hit. One

526
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 3: of the most successful season in ole Miss history was

527
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,399
Speaker 3: a failure. So to your point about the stakes, Yes,

528
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 3: if he has a screw up, if he loses Tonentucky

529
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 3: the way that last year Old last year's Old Mis

530
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 3: team lost to Kentucky, and you're looking around me like

531
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 3: the hell, what kind of voodoo magic does Mark Stoops

532
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 3: have over Lane Kiffin? The Kentucky who's lifeless for the

533
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 3: vast majority of the year just shows up on that

534
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 3: one day and make Lane's Lane's life hell. They almost

535
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 3: did again this year, and Ole Miss was able to

536
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 3: outlast it. I do think, though, FITZI, that he will be.

537
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 3: He has the opportunity to be the best version of

538
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 3: himself at LSU more so than he does Old Miss.

539
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 3: Ole Miss spends that money because they have Lane Kiffin,

540
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 3: because Lane Kiffin helps them believe that they have any

541
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 3: business being in the same conversation as a job as

542
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 3: Florida or Louisiana State. Never in my life has Old

543
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 3: Miss belonged at that table in any way, shape or form.

544
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 3: They did so because Lane Kiffen galvanized them. Now he's

545
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 3: not gonna need to do that at LSU, But there

546
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 3: is no question. Think about the coaches that they've had

547
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 3: at LSU who have won national championships in the last

548
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 3: couple of the last couple of go rat.

549
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: And they fired Less Miles and ed Orge w Natty.

550
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 3: Don't want, they don't care. Who cares if you If

551
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 3: you win the championship and you get fired two years later, Okay,

552
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 3: you can do whatever you want for the rest of

553
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 3: your life. There's not a better job in America than

554
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 3: fired head coaching. Kiffin is younger than those guys were

555
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 3: at their respective points in time at LSU, But who

556
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 3: cares if you get the national championship. I'm fine with

557
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 3: getting fired if I win a national championship.

558
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 2: My argument is that if less Miles and ed Orgeron

559
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 2: can win a Natty at LSU, then basically insert your

560
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 2: major coach here that's not fully incompetent. They should be

561
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 2: able to win a national championship. Fine, so you don't

562
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 2: need to pay that spend that kind of money to

563
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: get Lane Kiffin. And on top of it, if Lane's

564
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 2: gonna be the highest paid coach in the history of

565
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 2: the sport. We're gonna bend over backwards and making all

566
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 2: new nil money then winning one Natty with all of

567
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 2: those like less Miles and ed Oorzroon didn't just have

568
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 2: the bagman walking out here outspending Alabama and they still like,

569
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 2: they still got fired right after they won national championships

570
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 2: because it wasn't good enough that they couldn't consistently beat Alabama?

571
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: What proof?

572
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 2: What concept do we have that Nick Saban or anybody

573
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 2: out there not named Ryan Day? Essentially, like, there are

574
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 2: three coaches in college football that have won a national

575
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,199
Speaker 2: championship currently other than them, everybody else is just a

576
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 2: crap shoot. Everybody else is just again, Mars, the tire

577
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 2: thing is a crap shoot.

578
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 3: You don't there is no dynasty, There is no dynastic

579
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 3: possibilities anymore in college football. The marketplace has if it's all.

580
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 2: A crap shoot, And like, if it's all a crapshoot,

581
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 2: why spending this kind of money on link.

582
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 3: If somebody else will somebody else will pay him. It's

583
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 3: not a good reason, but Florida will turned around right

584
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 3: as soon as Lane Kiffin says no, that's not enough money.

585
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 3: Lsu Florida will shove so much money down his beady

586
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: eyed throat that he won't know what to do with himself.

587
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 3: If they don't do it, somebody else will, which is fine.

588
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 2: Like somebody's dating your crazy X too, and like that's

589
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: on them.

590
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 1: If they want to date your crazy X, let them

591
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 1: have her. Let them have it. Mart Mice gets caught

592
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: up on what's going on.

593
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: We're gonna argue about Lane Kiffins some more in a second,

594
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 2: but first let's get a scoreboard update.

595
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 5: You know, fits so you got you do have a point.

596
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 5: We're doing all this over Lane Kiffin, Like I get.

597
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 5: I like, like that's a lot I get. It's a

598
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 5: lot of argument over Lane Kiffy. He's supposed all these

599
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 5: hot yoga selfies. Anyway, we got some matchup in the

600
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 5: Big ten right now with the ranked teamh Oregon opening

601
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,560

604
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 5: the third quarter. There's one minute left in the game

605
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 5: of the day between ninth rank Notre Dame. I know

606
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 5: everybody is super happy. They subscribed to peacock to check

607
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 5: this one. Now seventy to nothing over Sheercus. Notre Dame

608
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 5: scored twenty one points before even touching the ball on offense,

609
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 5: So there you go. Two pick sixties in a punk return.

610
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 5: Vanderbilt up forty five to ten on Kentucky and another

611
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 5: sec banger, Texas. So the seventeenth ranked Longhorns with a

612
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 5: forty five to twenty three lead over Arkansas. They've just

613
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 5: gonn outscored Arkansas twenty one to three in the first

614
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,199
Speaker 5: and there in the second half, two lane opening up

615
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 5: on Temple twenty six to seven. Utah catching up here.

616
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 5: They were down thirty one to twenty one at halftime.

617
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 5: Now thirty five to thirty one over Kansas State. Kansas

618
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 5: State's got the ball. They are five hundred ball club.

619
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 5: Utah is eight and two. Michigan with a thirty five

620
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 5: to thirteen lead over Maryland and the close game right

621
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 5: now fourteen a piece. The twenty third ranked Houston Cougar's

622
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 5: have come back. They were down fourteen nothing. This started

623
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 5: the fourth quarter against TCU earlier today. Again, the theme

Speaker 5: this year. Back to you, guys, he's Buck Rising.

640
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 2: I'm Jason fitzbucking Fits, hanging out with you on Fox

641
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 2: Sports Radio on.

642
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: A Fox Sports Saturday. I got a lot going on.

643
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 2: Obviously, we'll keep you updated on these scores if anything

644
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 2: else comes to Fruition as we keep our eyes on.

645
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 1: Some of the big outcomes.

646
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 2: But look, I want to make it clear, because you're right,

647
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 2: Lane is the biggest name lank Giffin. We'll find out

648
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 2: on Saturday after the egg Bowl. According to the Ole

649
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 2: miss Ad, weirdest statement ever will address his future after

650
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: the egg Bowl, because that's going to stop the questions. Now.

651
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 2: Everybody will be like, oh, we got a statement, nothing

652
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 2: else to talk about here. I think there's a fine

653
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 2: line because you're right, home run higher for every LSU

654
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 2: fan because he's the biggest name on the block. I

655
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 2: just think part of what's happening right now is we're

656
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 2: talking about him like he's Kirby Smart or like he's

657
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: Ryan Day. And the difference that those two coaches have

658
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 2: is they have a national championship. And to me, all

659
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 2: the way back to my first radio gig in Nashville

660
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 2: when we were working together there at the time, I

661
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 2: remember arguing with my co host every Day Brand and Goal.

662
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 2: We argued about Les Miles being fired, and I kept saying, man,

663
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 2: you're firing a coach that's won whatever. I don't have

664
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: it in front of me eighty eight percent of his games.

665
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 2: Fired him because he just he won a national championship

666
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 2: and won like eighty eight percent of his games.

667
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: But couldn't beat Alabama, so we're gonna fire him.

668
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 2: And then they bring in coach Oh, and it's like, oh,

669
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 2: he wins a national championship and he's a beloved hero

670
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 2: to the city, like the place absolutely adored coach O.

671
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 2: And then right after that gets fired because man, this

672
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 2: result is not good enough, right, And there.

673
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 3: Was also some stuff going on in the background of

674
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 3: that LSA program that probably necessitated his firing.

675
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: I would think that's probably fair. Uh, but all of

676
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: it just stacks together to this.

677
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 2: If the expectation is national championship or bust, and that's

678
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 2: I only think there's a few programs in the country

679
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: that genuinely walk into every year saying it is national

680
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 2: championship or bust. If that is my only proof of concept,

681
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 2: that will equal success. And you are going to make

682
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 2: Lin Kiven the highest paid coach in all of college football.

683
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: Man, he's got to win a national championship.

684
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 2: And that's an area that we've literally never seen him throughout.

685
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: We don't even know if he can win playoff games.

686
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: We have no idea.

687
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 2: So like that's the part, Yes, we can look at

688
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 2: it and say, but look at what he's done with

689
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 2: ole Miss. I just think that that's a little bit

690
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 2: disrespectful to what ole Miss has given him, because he

691
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 2: certainly has had the money, the staff, the support, the infrastructure.

692
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 2: The nil money might not quite equal what LSU is

693
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 2: gonna do here, but we're talking about it like he

694
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I can't believe he made Middle Tennessee

695
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 2: State University successful.

696
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: It's not that like.

697
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 2: Ole Miss put in the money and the resources to

698
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 2: become a top notch program at this point, and I

699
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 2: honestly think he could. He has every bit the chance

700
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 2: to win a national championship at ole Miss that he

701
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 2: does at LSU.

702
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 4: He also gets a lot more patience at ole Miss

703
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 4: than he would get at LSU.

704
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 3: I I don't think that the only part of that

705
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 3: statement that Dya tribe that I disagree with is that

706
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 3: he has a better chance or as good a chance

707
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 3: to win a championship at ole Miss that he does

708
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 3: at LSU. That's just that that state is too chalk

709
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 3: full of in state talent that will take eight. I mean,

710
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 3: money matters, and obviously the Nile stuff is going to

711
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 3: factor in. So if you if you have a big

712
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 3: enough bag to put in front of a high school

713
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: kid to say, please come play for my football program, talented,

714
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 3: five star, then yeah, that's gonna sway some opinions there,

715
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 3: but there are there is so much there organically that

716
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 3: ole Miss had to manufacture. To their credit, they did it, FITZI.

717
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 3: But that's the only part of your your statement that

718
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 3: I would disagree with.

719
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: And they did do it, though, Buck like that.

720
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 2: That's my pushback to you is that last year, if

721
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 2: he doesn't blow a game, they shouldn't blow. Ole Miss

722
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 2: is in the college football Playoff. This year, ole Miss

723
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 2: is in the college football Playoff. If you were in

724
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 2: the college football playoff and you're a top five or

725
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 2: six team, you got a shot at a national championship.

726
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 2: So right now, this year, today, this old Miss team

727
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 2: could win the national championship. So like he has proximity

728
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: to championships where he is, he's gonna have to go

729
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: to LSU and build it to be bigger than what

730
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 2: he's already built at ole Miss. And at ole Miss

731
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 2: he could have a championship. It's not ol missus full

732
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 2: as an institution that they lost to Kentucky last year.

733
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: Like that is not that.

734
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 3: That's only I'm not saying that, And what I am

735
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 3: saying is that it took him a greater deal of

736
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 3: time and more a longer slower build at Ole Miss

737
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 3: than it will at LSU. He can drop in there

738
00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 3: tomorrow and have everything that he took. You know, how

739
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 3: long has Lane been at ole Miss? For example, twenty twenty?

740
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: He was hired there in twenty twenty.

741
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 3: Okay, so yeah, we're five years into the Lang Kiffin

742
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 3: Ole Miss experience, and I think it took every bit

743
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 3: of those five years for him to get to the

744
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 3: point where he has that thing in a position to

745
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 3: be competing for a national championship. He can do it

746
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 3: tomorrow at LSU if he wants, even as LSU has

747
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 3: had the kind of season that they've had. And the

748
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 3: other part of this is I don't treat him in

749
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 3: the same or I don't hold him in the same

750
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 3: esteem that I do Kirby Smart or Ryan Day. Those

751
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 3: are two different That is a different tier of coaching.

752
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 3: Just because his paycheck may reflect the fact that he

753
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 3: is compensated as much, if not more than those two

754
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 3: individuals that they will very soon thereafter get raises at

755
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 3: their respective institutions, as long as Ryan Day doesn't lose

756
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 3: to Michigan this year, which would be you know, no

757
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 3: flight to Ohio State fans. But objectively, the funniest thing

758
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 3: that could happen in the college football season is this

759
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 3: Ohio State team, after not being tested once, loses to

760
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 3: Michigan next week. But the other part of this is

761
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 3: he's just the name that we're talking about right now.

762
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 3: Nobody would put him in the same Nobody sensible would

763
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 3: hold him in the same esteem or consider him the

764
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 3: same caliber of coach as people who have actually accomplished

765
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 3: the task of winning a national championship. But could he

766
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 3: very well be the next at LSU, who's three previous

767
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 3: coaches prior to Brian Kelly won national championships. I very

768
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 3: much think he could be.

769
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,240
Speaker 2: He'll be competing against Kirby Smart in his own conference.

770
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,720
Speaker 2: And that's the other like, I don't think LSU fans

771
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 2: have the patience and balance and understanding and all of

772
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 2: these other things that you have with it. And that's

773
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 2: that's where it just gets tricky, And all of this

774
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 2: gets really tricky, and what it means for this ole

775
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 2: miss team this year and the future of college football.

776
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that next. He's Buck Rising. I'm Jason

777
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 2: Fitz getting filled in. It's bucking fits on Fox Sports Radio.

778
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio radios. Fucking fit.

779
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 2: It's on Fox Sports Radio. He's Buck Rising. I'm Jason

780
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 2: Fitz hanging out with you. College football action everywhere. Not

781
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,479
Speaker 2: a lot of upsets going on right now. We're getting

782
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 2: into some of the NFL action, by the way, in

783
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 2: the next hour. Big day tomorrow. But Buck this Lane

784
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 2: Kiffing conversation. By the way, we got a tweet on

785
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 2: this one. We got a tweet from HP saying what

786
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 2: Kurt Signetti has done in Indiana more impressed him than

787
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 2: what Lane's done. An Ole miss Ole miss was built

788
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: to win last year but didn't should have. It was

789
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 2: four years to build, not five. So he's you know,

790
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 2: HP chiming in on this. I'll remind everybody, but you know,

791
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 2: Buck is an Indiana guy, So you know the Signetti

792
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,919
Speaker 2: situation better than most. And I think, look, it's it's

793
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 2: a little bit apples and oranges. It's not that it's

794
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 2: not a fair comp it's just Signetti wasn't available, right,

795
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 2: I mean, Signetti's already locked up.

796
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 3: So this is gonna make damn sure he wasn't available.

797
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 2: No, I mean at the same time, nobody was offering

798
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 2: Signetti's seventeen point five or whatever. You know, I've heard

799
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 2: reports of up to twenty. So now they say it's

800
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 2: a ninety million dollar package plus incentives that LSU was offering.

801
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: That's a that's a gross I mean, that is just

802
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 2: ninety million dollars in Baton Rouge is just incredible.

803
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: But like one thing that we've glossed over in this.

804
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 2: Whole conversation, dude, is the concept that we're going to

805
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,240
Speaker 2: get an announcement according to the ole Miss ad next Saturday.

806
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 2: If that announcement is he's taking another job, he has

807
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:20,760
Speaker 2: to take that job.

808
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: Then basically he's because.

809
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 2: Of the way the recruiting calendar works, the transfer portal

810
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 2: calendar works, all of these things. He can't coach ole

811
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 2: Miss for a month and a half and miss out

812
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 2: on the opportunity to start building his program at LSU.

813
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,840
Speaker 2: We talk all the time about the loyalty of athletes,

814
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 2: but the concept of a coach and he has to like,

815
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 2: I'm not blaming Lane given in this situation, but if

816
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 2: you offer Lanes so much money he's got to leave,

817
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 2: and he walks away from his team before the playoffs.

818
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 2: That is such a awful look for college football.

819
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's a precedent thing, right, it's it's because

820
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 3: to your point, that is an ungodly amount of money. Anybody,

821
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 3: no matter what your profession, would take that amount of money,

822
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 3: no matter what they were I mean maybe not, no

823
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,800
Speaker 3: matter what they were sacrificing to go and take that bag.

824
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 3: But if you know, as long as it's not like

825
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 3: an actual life or death situation, you would take that

826
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 3: money and you would run and run to the swamp

827
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 3: of Baton Rouge as fast as humanly possible. You wouldn't

828
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 3: have to run, of course, because you could afford to

829
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 3: buy your own private plane at that point in time

830
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,720
Speaker 3: and not have to gaslight people with other university private

831
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 3: planes the way that Lane Kiffen is doing. Man, how

832
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 3: are old miss fans going to feel about this? Because

833
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 3: this is would you say that this is the first

834
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 3: of its kind of one of these situations, specifically in

835
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 3: the modern day of college football. I can't remember a

836
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 3: circumstance quite like this, given all the different factors and

837
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 3: variables that we've covered so far in the first hour

838
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 3: of the show. I think that Ole miss fans would

839
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 3: probably be a bit conflicted, like, he's not gonna be

840
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 3: able to go to Oxford, Mississippi and have a pleasant experience.

841
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 3: It's gonna be like the last time he went back

842
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 3: to Tennessee, where people are throwing mustard bottles and golf

843
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 3: balls in his head as he walks out of the stadium.

844
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 3: It's gonna be tough because one, he has been the

845
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,479
Speaker 3: most successful coach and the best coach that they've had

846
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 3: in that program's history. And I would say that's inarguable

847
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 3: no matter how this ends up playing out down the stretch,

848
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 3: because they are going to be in the College Football Playoff,

849
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 3: whether he's coaching them to through the College Football Playoff

850
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 3: or it's you know, Joe Judge or something like that. Right,

851
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,919
Speaker 3: But are fans going to be willing to just kind

852
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 3: of shrug that off and say, yeah, you know what,

853
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 3: we had a good run, right, All good things come

854
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 3: to an end eventually. We had a good run. It's

855
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 3: not gonna be a bad breakup, No love lost, Thank

856
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,839
Speaker 3: you for your time here. We're looking to we're gonna

857
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 3: we're gonna try, and we're gonna try and move on

858
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 3: and on to bigger and better things, and maybe we'll

859
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 3: be able to find the one next time. Or is

860
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 3: it going to be hostile as holy hell in Oxford,

861
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 3: Mississippi and just anywhere where there are all old miss

862
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 3: fans with Lang Kiffin for eternity. I'm sure it's gonna

863
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 3: be pretty split.

864
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 2: Whatever the worst breakup call conversation you've ever had is

865
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 2: in your life, magnify that by three billion. And that's

866
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 2: got because you're you're describing a fair and rational reaction

867
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 2: to a rational reaction to business. Right, ah, man, I

868
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 2: get it. Coach like ninety million dollars? Who could pass

869
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 2: up ninety million dollars?

870
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 3: That's generational?

871
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: Good luck?

872
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,239
Speaker 2: No, No, you're staying in the same conference, going somewhere else.

873
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 2: You're going to be coaching another team. And now we

874
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 2: sit on the precipice of the college football playoff and

875
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 2: through no faults of our own, as a fan base,

876
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 2: as an alumni is a fundraising unit, as a collective,

877
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,839
Speaker 2: and as a group of players, you got nothing like

878
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 2: you got an interim coach, and hopefully you can make

879
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 2: something happen with it.

880
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 3: But you want to.

881
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 2: Talk about regret like every time a team has been

882
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 2: left out of the college football playoff conversation for no

883
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 2: fault of their own. Think about how Florida State fans

884
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 2: will always look at an undefeated season where they did

885
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 2: not make college football playoff because their quarterback got hurt,

886
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 2: and how that just hurts your heart forever. I don't

887
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 2: know how you ever rationalize. And then, frankly, every other

888
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 2: program in college football should be puckered up because this

889
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 2: now becomes a fear forever. What if we make the

890
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,840
Speaker 2: college football playoff and our coach has to walk out

891
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 2: to take another gig. And again, I'm not fault link Iff,

892
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,280
Speaker 2: and I'm faulting the college football calendar.

893
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: But at some point now the college football.

894
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 2: Calendar will have to be addressed because this is something

895
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 2: fans will never get over, and this is something the

896
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 2: young men on that team will never get over. They

897
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,919
Speaker 2: fought all year and they get this buck.

898
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 3: It's just tragic, not tragic based on well, I mean,

899
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 3: to some extent.

900
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: We'll keep breaking it down. Next hour, more bucking fits.

901
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,880
Speaker 8: Next you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

902
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 2: There's a changing of the guard happening right now on Sundays,

903
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 2: and it feels like we're so busy trying to figure

904
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 2: out how to make what we thought be real that

905
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 2: we're not actually talking about what we're seeing right now.

906
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 2: Because we came into this season certain that the Chiefs,

907
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 2: the Ravens, and the Bills would continue to be dominant

908
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 2: franchises working their way towards the Super Bowl. But in

909
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,840
Speaker 2: the AFC we see right now it is not the

910
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 2: Chiefs and the Ravens and the Bills we need to

911
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 2: be talking about. No, it's the Patriots, It's the Colts.

912
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 2: It's the rest of the AFC that has stood up

913
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 2: and said take notice. He's Buck Rising on Jason Fitzbuck

914
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 2: and fits on Fox Sports Radio and Buck.

915
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 1: It's just there are very few things in my.

916
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 2: Life that I predict that I think I am so

917
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 2: confident in. I would bet everything I've ever made in

918
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 2: my entire life on this one thing. And I can

919
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 2: promise you this. I would bet every dollar I have

920
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 2: ever made in my entire career, every house that have

921
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,399
Speaker 2: ever owned, every car I've ever owned, I'd bet it all.

922
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 2: I would put all in on if the Ravens, the Bills,

923
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 2: or the Chiefs are in the super Bowl or.

924
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: In the playoffs.

925
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 5: I'm sorry.

926
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,959
Speaker 1: In the playoffs, the Monday morning conversation on shows I get.

927
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 2: Up of the first week of the playoffs will be,

928
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 2: you know, don't want to face this team because we've

929
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 2: seen what they can do in the playoffs.

930
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 1: It's what we do all the time.

931
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 2: And frankly, like I'm looking around right now saying, you

932
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,240
Speaker 2: know who, I don't want to face the Indianapolis Colts.

933
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: Tomorrow we get Colts versus Chiefs, it will prove some

934
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 1: of this, but even in that moment, it won't.

935
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 2: If the Chiefs get their asses kicked on Monday, it'll

936
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 2: be are the Chiefs dead?

937
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: Can they still find a way to the playoffs, which,

938
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 1: by the way, they might be able to.

939
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 2: If the Colts lose, it'll immediately be all the Cults

940
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 2: are frauds and the Chiefs are back.

941
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 1: We are so ready to support the narratives we came.

942
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 2: Into the season with that, we're not actually allowing the

943
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,240
Speaker 2: football we see to create new ones.

944
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,760
Speaker 3: That's a well made point by you, because and it's

945
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 3: interesting that that would be the default, because I could

946
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 3: absolutely foresee a world where those kind of narratives start

947
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 3: to take shape, regardless of the outcome this coming weekend,

948
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 3: and I don't no FITZI I mean it feels like

949
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 3: people do it to just be what's the word obtuse

950
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 3: in a lot of years where they'll pick a team

951
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,919
Speaker 3: not name the Chiefs to win the AFC, or pick

952
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,720
Speaker 3: a team not name the Chiefs. The Broncos for example,

953
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 3: we're a popular pick to win the AFC West this year,

954
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 3: and I don't know that a majority of people who

955
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,240
Speaker 3: are placing bets and futures and stuff like that actually

956
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 3: bet on the Broncos that way. I don't have access

957
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 3: to that kind of information or if it's out there,

958
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 3: I haven't seen it, but I do feel like I

959
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 3: heard more. Okay, this is the year that somebody finally

960
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 3: gets at least pass the Chiefs for that division, and

961
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 3: we've seen Denver, whether it's ugly or not, hold serve.

962
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 3: The Chargers are I mean, as fraud as any team,

963
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 3: especially given the consequence of their injuries right now and

964
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 3: how it's impacting their quarterback play. Poor justin Herbert against

965
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 3: the Jags that don't really get that much of a

966
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 3: rush on the quarterback so far this season? What did

967
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 3: he have eighty one passing yards last week against Jackson

968
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 3: bll this for Kansas City, they are always going to

969
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 3: be a popular topic of discussion because what I mean,

970
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 3: you've worked in this world, at least on a national level,

971
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 3: far more than I have. I feel that this is

972
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 3: a cycle that sports fans enjoy or just kind of

973
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 3: stuck in, whether they want to be or not. It's

974
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 3: just kind of a thing that we default to. We

975
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 3: like the plucky underdog story. We start to build that

976
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 3: situation up for that. A couple of years ago, for us,

977
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,880
Speaker 3: for the country, for the football consuming world, it was

978
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 3: the Kansas City Chiefs. All right, we're tired of Tom Brady,

979
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,920
Speaker 3: We're tired of the Patriots. All right, Brady's going to Tampa.

980
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 3: Let him win a super Bowl there. But Lee, I mean,

981
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 3: Brady's likable all of the sudden. Brady's a good example

982
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,360
Speaker 3: of that too, right we lebron where he goes from

983
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 3: Cleveland and everybody loves him, and then he can't win it.

984
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 3: So he goes to Miami and everybody hates him, and

985
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 3: then he goes back to Cleveland. He wins one for Cleveland,

986
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 3: everybody loves him again, and now people hate him again.

987
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 3: Because whatever I feel like, the Chiefs are currently in

988
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,880
Speaker 3: the midst of that cycle where enough football fans are

989
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 3: tired of them want to see the great ones fall

990
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,800
Speaker 3: short because they're tired of seeing their team come up short.

991
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills fans against a team like Kansas City, even

992
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 3: though at at least this year, the indicators would point

993
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 3: to Buffalo having a better chance to win the Super

994
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 3: Bowl based on some metrics that we've seen these two

995
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 3: teams display throughout the course of the season. I feel

996
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 3: like the Chiefs are just in that life cycle. You

997
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 3: have to win at a commensurate level to have a

998
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 3: seat at that table. The Chiefs have created this opportunity,

999
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 3: this dialogue one way or the other around them. I

1000
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 3: don't think it's unfair to anybody because they are the

1001
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 3: big dog, right even though they're not the defending Super

1002
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 3: Bowl champion, we are going to talk about them as if,

1003
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 3: almost as if they are, even though the last time

1004
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 3: we saw them in a Super Bowl they got their

1005
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 3: asses whipped. So I think that this is something It's

1006
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 3: almost like Pro Bowl voting, where you don't necessarily see

1007
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 3: guys go to the Pro Bowl in the season that

1008
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 3: they deserve it, but once they have the name recognition,

1009
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:55,839
Speaker 3: they end up in the Pro Bowl maybe the next

1010
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 3: year or a couple of years after the fact, just

1011
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 3: because they have that brand equity. I feel like that's

1012
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 3: kind of what we're going through. In terms of the Chiefs.

1013
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 2: The thing for me is, I can't look. I have

1014
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 2: never hidden my fandom. I've got a Raider somewhere right

1015
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 2: behind me, so as we do this show, so I

1016
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 2: understand a lot of times when I say negative things

1017
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 2: about the Chiefs, people make it I'm a Chief sat

1018
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,400
Speaker 2: I'm actually the opposite. The Chiefs dynasty has made it

1019
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: really easy for me to accept just how bad the

1020
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:22,800
Speaker 2: Raiders have been for most of the last.

1021
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 1: Decade because I can look at it and say, hey,

1022
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 1: we weren't going to beat the Chiefs anyway. That's fine.

1023
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: It is what it is like. It's fine. The Chiefs

1024
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:32,800
Speaker 1: are on a run. My not issue, but my thought process.

1025
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 2: Over the last week, we watched the Broncos that you

1026
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 2: just mentioned. I'm not sure the Broncos offense is right.

1027
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 2: I'm not sure bo Nicks is great, but the Broncos

1028
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,400
Speaker 2: beat the Chiefs. And in fact, the Broncos at eight

1029
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 2: and two, have two losses. One was a one point

1030
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 2: weird loss to the Colts, and one was a weird

1031
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,760
Speaker 2: field goal loss to the Chargers. The Broncos are literally

1032
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 2: two plays away from being undefeated, and they just beat

1033
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. On Thursday Night Football, we watched the Bills

1034
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,280
Speaker 2: run around and look like absolute imbeciles on a football

1035
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 2: field against the Texans defense that was just men amongst boys,

1036
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,399
Speaker 2: and the conversation the next day was all about how

1037
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 2: broken the Bills are and not about the fact that wait,

1038
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,240
Speaker 2: maybe the Texans, who by the way, had been winning

1039
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 2: with Davis Mills as their quarterback.

1040
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 3: Maybe Texans, it's crazy, but this.

1041
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 2: Defense is so good and I'm looking at it and saying, wow, Finally,

1042
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:27,400
Speaker 2: like finally, the Chiefs lack of dependable offense seems like

1043
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 2: it's kicking their butt a little.

1044
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: Bit this year.

1045
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 2: Finally, the fact that there isn't a wide receiver in

1046
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,080
Speaker 2: Buffalo that anybody can trust is kicking their butt a

1047
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 2: little bit this year.

1048
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:36,400
Speaker 1: The Ravens.

1049
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 2: Part of that's injury, I get it, But the Ravens

1050
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 2: this year have not been the same version of the

1051
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens that we've seen all year. I'm willing to

1052
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 2: like loudly say the AFC Championship Game I predicted coming

1053
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 2: into the season was Ravens versus Chiefs, and my logic

1054
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,840
Speaker 2: on that was two best teams in the AFC. Sorry

1055
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,879
Speaker 2: to our buddy Sean, that's a lifelong die hard Bills fan.

1056
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,760
Speaker 2: My logic was the two best teams in the AFC.

1057
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 2: And also, Mahomes has been to the AFC CHAMPI every

1058
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 2: single year that he's been a starting quarterback in the NFL.

1059
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 1: This made sense to me.

1060
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 2: It now like, for the sake of my prediction, I'd

1061
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 2: love to be right, but for the sake of what

1062
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 2: we do. When you watch a lot of football, you

1063
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 2: have to step back at some point and say, my god,

1064
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:19,400
Speaker 2: the Colts, the efficiency of the Colts offense, the ability

1065
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 2: of the Colts to run the football behind that offensive line,

1066
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 2: the weapons that they have all across the board. The

1067
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 2: defense is playing far better than I think most of

1068
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 2: us expected over the course of this year. The Patriots

1069
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,439
Speaker 2: way ahead of schedule. And this is where everybody says, well,

1070
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 2: we haven't seen Drake may do.

1071
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: It in the playoffs. You're right, we haven't.

1072
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 2: We haven't absolutely, But today, right now, who do you

1073
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 2: believe is a better team? And my answer is that

1074
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 2: we've seen it of late. I believe today the Colts

1075
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 2: are flat out better than the Bills, the Ravens, and

1076
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,720
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. I believe right now that the Broncos are actually,

1077
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,879
Speaker 2: because of that defense, better than those three teams as well.

1078
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: And I think even though I didn't think.

1079
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 2: The Patriots were going to be as good as fast

1080
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 2: as they are right now, I trust the Patriots more,

1081
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:01,920
Speaker 2: and then I trust those three teams too. So like

1082
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,280
Speaker 2: it just feels like the changing of the guard is happening,

1083
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 2: and we're not letting it happen.

1084
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, there's always going to be a reticence,

1085
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 3: right because you know, people struggle with change no matter

1086
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 3: what it is. You don't want to change the kind

1087
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,240
Speaker 3: of orange juice brand that you've drank your entire life

1088
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 3: because it's something different, And why would I change? I

1089
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 3: like this brand, even though the other brand when you might,

1090
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 3: when you might try it, eventually, you're like, oh, this

1091
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 3: is delightful. I don't It turns out I don't like

1092
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 3: pulp in my orange juice. What have I been doing

1093
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 3: my entire life? Why have I been existing this way?

1094
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,880
Speaker 3: Just because you're stubborn and it's easier to do the

1095
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 3: thing that you've known for the vast majority of your

1096
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:39,760
Speaker 3: life than it is. To actually take a stand seems silly,

1097
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 3: but to do something different, which is what Indianapolis is doing.

1098
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 3: And it's funny that we're kind of cyclical at least

1099
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 3: with the franchises, right, because if you told me twenty

1100
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:51,919
Speaker 3: years ago that it was the Patriots and the Cults

1101
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:53,439
Speaker 3: at the top of the AFC, you would have said, yeah,

1102
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 3: Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. Now it's Daniel Jones and

1103
00:49:55,640 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 3: Drake May Baby. All things are become new again eventually

1104
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 3: after being old for a period of time. So I

1105
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 3: think a lot of people it's just it's such, it's

1106
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 3: such nobody nobody more deserving, right than Patriots fans. They've

1107
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 3: just suffered so much.

1108
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 2: As dude, I'm in Connecticut in the thick of it,

1109
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:16,880
Speaker 2: and let me tell you something, man, it is obnoxious.

1110
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 1: It is the worst.

1111
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:22,319
Speaker 2: When Patriots fan like I actually have friends that are

1112
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 2: Patriots fans that have looked at me and said, we

1113
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,319
Speaker 2: finally got a quarterback again. Like you can't use the

1114
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 2: word finally when it's only like you might have had

1115
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:34,600
Speaker 2: Mack Jones, you just screwed him up. I've seen one

1116
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,360
Speaker 2: decent quarterback in my maybe two I'll give you.

1117
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 1: I've get Rich Cannon very good.

1118
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 2: I've seen Rich Cannon and Derek Carr at my lifetime,

1119
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 2: the only two capable quarterbacks I've seen in my lifetime

1120
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,840
Speaker 2: as a Raiders fan. And I got Patriots fan saying, oh,

1121
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 2: we finally got a quarterback again.

1122
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,839
Speaker 1: Oh WHOA? Is me the angst of a Patriots fan?

1123
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 3: Yeah? I don't think I told you this. The Patriots

1124
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 3: for people who don't know what me and Fitsy do

1125
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 3: on a regular basis beyond just this show. On Saturdays,

1126
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 3: I covered the Tennessee Titans. I live in Nashville, I've

1127
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 3: been This is my tenth season covering the team. It's

1128
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:07,919
Speaker 3: a suffering, but it's my tenth season covering the team.

1129
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,800
Speaker 3: And one of the teams that did play in Nashville

1130
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 3: this year is the New England Patriots, which of course

1131
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 3: made for interesting talk radio fodder here in town with

1132
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 3: Mike Rabel coming back to town and Mike Greece, who

1133
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,319
Speaker 3: is a legend, an absolute legend, one of the genuinely

1134
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:28,440
Speaker 3: best human beings you will find anywhere in sports media, writing, reporting, talking,

1135
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 3: whatever the case may be. On television, he is the

1136
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 3: ESPN Patriots reporter, and he's a very lovely man, comes

1137
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 3: up to me in the press box and was just

1138
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 3: kind of like almost kind of like comforting me for

1139
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 3: how bad the Titan season is. And I love Mike

1140
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 3: to death, but the way he looked at me when

1141
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 3: he said, yeah, you know, I understand, I get it.

1142
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:49,880
Speaker 3: These last couple of years have been tough in New

1143
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 3: England too, and I just wanted to be like, Mike,

1144
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,920
Speaker 3: come on, Bud, like you can't. You can't, with a

1145
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,239
Speaker 3: straight face actually say that to me. But of course

1146
00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 3: I didn't because he was being genuine and I think

1147
00:51:58,960 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 3: he actually meant.

1148
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,400
Speaker 1: It that no, you have full permission.

1149
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:07,280
Speaker 2: And then just to say no, no, sure no, shocked

1150
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 2: my finger at him like a dog.

1151
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:08,919
Speaker 3: No.

1152
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 1: His heart's in the right place. I get it, I

1153
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:16,640
Speaker 1: know it is.

1154
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 3: That's why I didn't get like, you know, that's why

1155
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 3: I didn't like come after him a little bit. But

1156
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 3: it's just like it took every ounce of astraight I

1157
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 3: had in that press box and not laugh out loud.

1158
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 3: The thing with Indy, I would bet them to cover

1159
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 3: at Kansas City if I was allowed to bet on

1160
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 3: NFL games. I'm an NFL reporter, So I don't, but

1161
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 3: they're what three and a half point underdogs in case

1162
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,840
Speaker 3: I'm I'm kind of confused by that line, because Finzi,

1163
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 3: it's not it's not just that the offense for Kansas

1164
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 3: City is finally catching up to them the way that

1165
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 3: we've talked about for the last couple of years. What's

1166
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,040
Speaker 3: kept them afloat these last couple of years, while that

1167
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,799
Speaker 3: offense has kind of languished and ebbed and flowed in

1168
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:54,880
Speaker 3: different moments, it's been that they've had one of the

1169
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,600
Speaker 3: best defenses in football with Steve Spagnolo this year. They're

1170
00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 3: not a bad defense by any stretch of the imagination,

1171
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,839
Speaker 3: but they're definitely bottom half of the league in terms

1172
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:06,760
Speaker 3: of their efficiency. They're not a good defense this season

1173
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 3: on third down, which are two very different things for

1174
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 3: the Chiefs to have to work up against, and you're

1175
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 3: seeing the combination of those two things. The confluence of

1176
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 3: those two things create a five hundred team that could

1177
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 3: be below five hundred if Indianapolis does what you absolutely

1178
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 3: expect them to do now, Spags is probably gonna blitz

1179
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 3: the holy hell out of Daniel Jones, and Daniel Jones

1180
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 3: is not totally healthy. They're coming off of buy the

1181
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 3: Colts are right now. But he's listed on the injury

1182
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 3: report with a calf. It's technically, according to the reporting

1183
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 3: in Indianapolis, a fibula injury. It's just they have to

1184
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:40,799
Speaker 3: like designate a muscle as opposed to as opposed to

1185
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 3: saying what specific bone with him is bothering him. So

1186
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:45,680
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's going to go well, But

1187
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 3: I think if the Colts are as balanced as they

1188
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 3: have been and Daniel Jones doesn't completely flame out, I

1189
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 3: would take the Colts plus three and a half.

1190
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: I think the Colts win this game outright.

1191
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 2: I think Jonathan Taylor has a big game, and I

1192
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,880
Speaker 2: think Indianapolis makes a statement that this is the new AFC.

1193
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 1: And I think through all of that.

1194
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,320
Speaker 2: When the there's still plenty of schedule left for the Chiefs,

1195
00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:07,040
Speaker 2: they're gonna go on a run. I still think the

1196
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:08,960
Speaker 2: Chiefs are gonna find their way to the playoffs. And

1197
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 2: then I still think that the absolute idiotic topic the

1198
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 2: first Monday of playoff week is gonna be oh.

1199
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 1: How scared should we be? O'patrick Mahomes, Like.

1200
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 2: The legend of Patrick Mahomes, the legend of the Kansas

1201
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,879
Speaker 2: City Chiefs this year is better than the actual team.

1202
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:25,440

1211
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,359
Speaker 2: off the air. Some things in the NFL never changed.

1212
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:44,520
Speaker 2: The Colts are good, the Patriots are good. The Browns

1213
00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,240
Speaker 2: and the Raiders suck like life is just a cycle.

1214
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:48,920
Speaker 2: It's just a cycle of the same over.

1215
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:49,439
Speaker 1: And over and over again.

1216
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,400
Speaker 2: For all that credit. Who deserves the most credit of

1217
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 2: any of the coaches in the NFL this year? Who

1218
00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:56,560
Speaker 2: should be the coach of the year.

1219
00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you.

1220
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,760
Speaker 2: It's a simple question, complicated answer. We'll try next. Bucking

1221
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:06,279
Speaker 2: fits on Fox Sports Radio. But Gonia, by the way,

1222
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 2: a really good movie. I strongly recommend it.

1223
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:10,239
Speaker 1: They could call me.

1224
00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 2: I have some notes about maybe the last fifteen minutes,

1225
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 2: but a really good movie. Also Running Man, it was fine,

1226
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 2: saw Running Man, it was fine. AMC right now? With

1227
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 2: the holiday Coke zero vanilla swirl though. That's a delight.

1228
00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 2: It's like a vanilla holiday, creamy vanilla Coke zero swirl thing.

1229
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,719
Speaker 2: What you don't like like a vanilla float? Come on,

1230
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:31,399
Speaker 2: it's like a it's like a it's like a coke

1231
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 2: zero float?

1232
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 3: What is it?

1233
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: How can you make that face towards a coke zero float?

1234
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:36,239
Speaker 1: That's what it tastes like.

1235
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 3: Because I've been a little bit hungover all day to day.

1236
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:43,239
Speaker 3: Uh and the idea of that just absolutely turned my

1237
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 3: stomach upside down, Like that, so.

1238
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 1: You're better than us?

1239
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, I mean I do. Okay, that's yes, famously

1240
00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 3: I do.

1241
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:51,640
Speaker 1: I was. I will admit though, that that's a fine.

1242
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:52,840
Speaker 1: I was surprised, like.

1243
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 3: Wait, that's the biggest setup I've ever had, of course.

1244
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:01,439
Speaker 1: I mean like, look, I'm just saying.

1245
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 2: Buck Rising came out of the womb, looked at the

1246
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 2: doctor and said I've seen better, Like there's just no

1247
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 2: doubt about it, like this, unimpressed, unimpressed Buck Rising, I was.

1248
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 1: I was a little shook it though, like I.

1249
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:13,800
Speaker 2: Want to see Running Man the other night right, And

1250
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:14,800
Speaker 2: I was like, all right, this is gonna be a

1251
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 2: good movie. It's a big popular movie right now. I

1252
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 2: remember the original from my childhood vaguely. I don't think

1253
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 2: I saw, but I remember what the you know. So

1254
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 2: I was all excited. I'd look in the app and

1255
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:25,880
Speaker 2: then I had no idea I was going on a

1256
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 2: Thursday night. I had no idea that it might have

1257
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,399
Speaker 2: been a Wednesday. And I don't remember, but like, I'm

1258
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 2: going on and there was a preview of Wicked, and

1259
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:33,879
Speaker 2: I had no idea that Wicked Too was taking over

1260
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:36,839
Speaker 2: the entire theater. So running Man's like a week old,

1261
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,080
Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, I was in one of

1262
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 2: the theaters, inside a theater that only has like, I

1263
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 2: don't know, twenty seats max, Like all the seats were full,

1264
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:45,400
Speaker 2: but there were only like twenty of us in there

1265
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 2: because everybody else showed up in full regalia for like

1266
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 2: costumes and makeup, and people singing in the lobby for

1267
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 2: Wicked Too, which only makes me like I could just

1268
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,840
Speaker 2: only imagine Buck Rising singing along with all the music

1269
00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:59,280
Speaker 2: theater kids that Wicked.

1270
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,799
Speaker 3: I actually loved Wicked. The woman I was dating at

1271
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,280
Speaker 3: the time forced me to go and any any movie

1272
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 3: over over two hours, I'm gonna I'm likely gonna start

1273
00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 3: off with no, I don't care what it's about. I

1274
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,200
Speaker 3: don't care how good it is. I don't care who

1275
00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 3: the cast is. It's just which is crazy because I'll binge,

1276
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,440
Speaker 3: you know, six hours of Game of Thrones on a

1277
00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 3: day when when Game of Thrones was popular, But I

1278
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:24,120
Speaker 3: won't sit through a two hour movie in a theater.

1279
00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 3: I loved Wicked. It was really really good. I don't

1280
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,960
Speaker 3: know that. I don't know that I would go on

1281
00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 3: a solo venture right now to see. I don't know

1282
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 3: what the title of Wicked two is other than it

1283
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 3: is second iteration or part two of Wicked as as

1284
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 3: this thing continues to grow and grow and grow. But

1285
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,800
Speaker 3: I get it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. They crushed it.

1286
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 3: So if if two is as good, if not better,

1287
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 3: than one, I would I would absolutely hear the argument.

1288
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 3: You may even hear me humming a tune, maybe not

1289
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 3: full full throat singing along.

1290
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 9: Off your mic by the way, clean off.

1291
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:04,560
Speaker 1: If you ever do that in this airways.

1292
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:07,960
Speaker 3: If I started singing the Wicked sounds, you would.

1293
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:09,520
Speaker 5: Get shut off immediately.

1294
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:13,480
Speaker 1: Look, okay, so here's the thing. Number one. I went

1295
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:14,000
Speaker 1: to see Wicked.

1296
00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 3: We want to know what to do. I want to

1297
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 3: take the rest of the show off. I'll just start

1298
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 3: humming Wicked slowly into the microphone, and Mary'll send me

1299
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 3: home for the dog.

1300
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 1: I had no expectations.

1301
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 2: I didn't really like I was a bit familiar with it,

1302
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 2: but even as a kid that grew up around a

1303
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 2: lot of music theater, it was a little bit after

1304
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 2: that chapter for me, so like, I just never I'd

1305
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,200
Speaker 2: never heard the soundtrack to it. I agree with you, Buck,

1306
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 2: I loved it. I was a bit let's say, I'm

1307
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,200
Speaker 2: trying to say this politely. There's no nice way to

1308
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 2: say it in the beginning. I'm glad I didn't see

1309
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:44,439
Speaker 2: it in the first few weeks because so many music

1310
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 2: theater kids were going and social media was all abuzz

1311
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 2: about like don't stop.

1312
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 1: Me from singing in the theater.

1313
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 2: And I just want to remind most of you that

1314
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 2: the reason that you're in the theater and not on

1315
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 2: the stage is because you weren't good enough to cut it.

1316
00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:59,280
Speaker 2: So I don't want to pay my money to go

1317
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 2: hear you in the crowds sing along. I'm paying my

1318
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,600
Speaker 2: money to hear Ariana Grande sing it. See the difference here,

1319
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 2: I want to hear her sing. I don't want to

1320
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 2: hear you sing. So I just I think we need

1321
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 2: as are as a show like we could go and

1322
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 2: we could essentially be the Simon Cowell, like the American

1323
00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 2: idol that theaters need over the course of opening weekend

1324
00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 2: of Wicked.

1325
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 1: Like Mary mc could just whistle buck. You could just say.

1326
00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 2: Stop, and then I'll just look disapprovingly and say, hey, hey, hey,

1327
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 2: you you you in the front row.

1328
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 1: You're not good. Shut up, like somebody.

1329
00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 3: Needs to help people do something else.

1330
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:32,800
Speaker 1: You could take a woul.

1331
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, we would buy you a whistle like you have

1332
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:36,640
Speaker 3: on the show you know that.

1333
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 5: Michael Jackson movie.

1334
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,880
Speaker 9: Though I'm sorry, guys, I'm gonna be singing in and

1335
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 9: hollering wants that. No, no, sorry, no, well actually Jackson movie,

1336
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:49,800
Speaker 9: you have to your your You're very talented.

1337
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 2: I would I would enjoy that, okay, But at the

1338
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 2: same time, like as I've said a million times, this

1339
00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:56,360
Speaker 2: is like what makes me a terrible friend.

1340
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes my friends and I get this.

1341
00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:01,200
Speaker 2: My friends that have kids that are part of arts

1342
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 2: and entertainment will then say, oh my god, you're gonna

1343
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 2: come to our kids recital, right, And this is where

1344
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 2: like I'm not good at that. I'm not because I

1345
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 2: didn't grow up with like. My parents were not the

1346
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 2: type to hold their tongue right. So my mom would

1347
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:15,840
Speaker 2: walk in the room and frequently tell me that if

1348
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 2: that was the best I could play that day, I

1349
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 2: should put it away.

1350
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 1: She didn't want to hear it anymore.

1351
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 3: Right.

1352
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 1: I think that there's we're working through therapy here.

1353
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 2: I just think we need more honest parents, Like honest

1354
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 2: coaches will tell your kids, Hey, your kid can't hack,

1355
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,440
Speaker 2: your kid can't play, your kid's not going to be

1356
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:33,760
Speaker 2: a starting quarterback in the NFL.

1357
01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 1: I want to be. You know, this is a new service.

1358
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 1: Hire me, parents.

1359
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 2: I will come into the living room, I will listen

1360
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,280
Speaker 2: to your child perform, and then I will tell them

1361
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 2: you are not talented enough.

1362
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 1: You need to study for the SATs and become a doctor.

1363
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 1: We need more of that.

1364
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 2: Like there are gonna be people in the Michael Jackson

1365
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,520
Speaker 2: movie singing that simply shouldn't sing.

1366
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 1: And if your tone.

1367
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 2: Deaf, I don't want to listen to If you're not

1368
01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:56,760
Speaker 2: particularly great, I don't want to listen to you. If

1369
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 2: you are not worth paying money to hear sing on

1370
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 2: a stage, don't ruin my movie.

1371
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 1: I think it's simple.

1372
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:04,040
Speaker 6: Do you need a hush?

1373
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 1: Music is delightful? Dude? That that trauma dumping Yo feels good? Man, No, no,

1374
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: it feels good. I'm not dumb trauma. I'm good with that.

1375
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 2: I am good. My trauma made me who I am.

1376
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:17,600
Speaker 2: I don't need to dump it. I feel good. We

1377
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 2: need more. We need more buck Rising parents in the world,

1378
01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 2: like not the Buff's a parent. We need more parents

1379
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 2: who are gonna just walk in and say hey, hey, hey,

1380
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 2: you not you fat Jesus.

1381
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 1: Just try it again like we are.

1382
01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,920
Speaker 3: I would absolutely refer to a kid as fat Jesus.

1383
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 3: I could not. I don't know how to talk to

1384
01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 3: kids like this is why I'm convinced I'm not going

1385
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:38,120
Speaker 3: to be a parent for a number of different reasons.

1386
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 3: But like, children make me deeply uncomfortable. So I start

1387
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 3: to talk to them like I would talk to a

1388
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 3: normal adult, and it's just not a good way to converse.

1389
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,640
Speaker 1: It's actually the better way for them. They learn skills

1390
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 1: very well. Actually from that.

1391
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 2: Nobody ever coddled me as a kid, and I think

1392
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 2: that actually really helped me. Buck You, Maybe this is

1393
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:55,800
Speaker 2: just when you find out about the eighteen kids you

1394
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 2: have running around Nashville.

1395
01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 5: You're gonna be a great dad.

1396
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 1: Never catch me.

1397
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 3: Also, to answer your question, yes, I trust the Patriots.

1398
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:04,960
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Martin.

1399
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:06,680
Speaker 1: We'll recognize their voices.

1400
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:11,080
Speaker 2: Though they'll all be angry, angry little box all over Nashville.

1401
01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:14,440
Speaker 5: Is that deep after mom leaves the hot yoga studio

1402
01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 5: on the way home, you.

1403
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:18,280
Speaker 1: Think the studio got hot?

1404
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 3: All right?

1405
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:22,960
Speaker 5: Well, that's about as hot as the college football actions

1406
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,360
Speaker 5: has been today now, a lot of close games, it's

1407
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 5: been quiet.

1408
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 3: We're looking at U.

1409
01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,600
Speaker 5: There is an interesting brewing up Severn now three minutes

1410
01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 5: outhering and fourth quarter Kansas State five and five on

1411

Speaker 5: the year, forty seven to thirty seven, the lead over

1412
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:39,120
Speaker 5: twelfth range to Utah. Utah does have the ball over

1413
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,160
Speaker 5: there in the red zone. That's been a back and

1414
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 5: forth matchup Utah getting a safety in a fourth quarter.

1415
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 5: Fourth quarter's all about done here.

1416
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 3: But the finals with the.

1417
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 5: Clock with Oregon and USC the Ducks with a forty

1418
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,880
Speaker 5: two to twenty seven will be win over the fifteenth

1419
01:02:54,960 --> 01:03:00,320
Speaker 5: rank Trojans. Earlier today we saw a big wins for Ohio.

1420
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:01,040
Speaker 3: State, Georgia.

1421
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:05,160
Speaker 5: Basically everybody who played today won in a massive won

1422
01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 5: by like forty five points, including Texas A and M

1423
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 5: who beat Sanford forty eight to nothing. Notre Dame had

1424
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 5: seventy points. They had quick math forty nine at the half.

1425
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 5: So of course that was against Syracuse. Thanks for coming

1426
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,520
Speaker 5: out Alabama with a fifty six point win. Miami beats

1427
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:24,400
Speaker 5: Virginia Tech thirty four to seventeen, Vanderbilt thir forty five

1428
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 5: to seventeen over at Kentucky. We did have one close

1429
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:30,960
Speaker 5: one in the Big Ten Northwestern of Minnesota thirty eight

1430
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:34,280
Speaker 5: to thirty five, the Northwestern Wildcats getting the win there

1431
01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 5: forty five to twenty. Maryland Michigan Beach, Maryland, with Brycenderwood

1432
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 5: having two touchdowns there in that matchup. In NFL news,

1433
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,880
Speaker 5: I'm sorry Texas beat Arkansas fifty two to thirty seven,

1434
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:51,000
Speaker 5: and NFL news now we'll see the Joe Burrow will

1435
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 5: not play Sunday against the Patriots. He did practice this week,

1436
01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:56,600
Speaker 5: but it's going to be Joe Flacco. Steelers will have

1437
01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:59,280
Speaker 5: Cam Hayward and Darius Lay Sunday against the Bears. Aaron

1438
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:02,960
Speaker 5: Rodgers question with that small left wrist fracture, which to

1439
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 5: me feels like something that's only small to the people

1440
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,560
Speaker 5: who are talking about it, not the person whose risk

1441
01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:10,000
Speaker 5: is actually fractured. I don't know what you guys think

1442
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,000
Speaker 5: about that, but it's one of those that like, how

1443
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:16,360
Speaker 5: that that's gotta be something bigger than just a slight fracture.

1444
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 5: Feels like a minor gunshot wound. Like I'm hurt back

1445
01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 5: to you, guys.

1446
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 2: Hairline fracture in my leg. It took months months to

1447
01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:27,800
Speaker 2: heal that thing. I don't know, like a small wrist fracture.

1448
01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:31,480
Speaker 2: It sounds all fractures seem like big s fractures. Utah

1449
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 2: just scored, by the way, So two forty seven to

1450
01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 2: go in the game. The extra point is up and

1451
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,560
Speaker 2: it is good. It is now forty four to forty seven.

1452
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:40,840
Speaker 2: Two forty seven to go in the game. They are

1453
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:44,520
Speaker 2: down by three. Utah has all three timeouts and the

1454
01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:47,160
Speaker 2: two minute stoppage whatever we want to call that, since

1455
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:48,800
Speaker 2: we're not allowed to call it the two minute warning.

1456
01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:52,320
Speaker 2: They have that as well left at their disposal. So

1457
01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 2: plenty of time left in this very weird Utah game.

1458
01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 2: They were getting their asses kicked and then all of

1459
01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:59,040
Speaker 2: a sudden they were up by double digits and then

1460
01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 2: they were down by double t and now it's a

1461
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 2: three point game. I don't know what to make of

1462
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,479
Speaker 2: this weird, weird football game, but reminder that a lot

1463
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:10,080
Speaker 2: on the line, Utah winning the BYU loss would impact

1464
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 2: a Big Twelve. So all of this is there's more

1465
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,560
Speaker 2: drama than usual on a Utah Kansas State game book.

1466
01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 2: So not a lot of analysis here, just the fact

1467
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:23,040
Speaker 2: is this is a weird wild ending to what has

1468
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:25,240
Speaker 2: been a weird wild season in the Big Twelve.

1469
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:31,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, we will see if Utah is able to stave

1470
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:36,320
Speaker 3: off this forty seven point performance that Kansas State has

1471
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:39,840
Speaker 3: put on them at home. It's very uncharacteristic of a

1472
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 3: Kyle Whittingham defense, certainly, but it's the closest thing to

1473
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 3: a big college football we were just talking. I don't know,

1474
01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 3: but during a break fitsie. We have done so much

1475
01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:52,000
Speaker 3: college football here these last few weeks, and obviously we're

1476
01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:53,720
Speaker 3: right in the middle of the college football slate, so

1477
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:55,480
Speaker 3: it would be natural for us to react. And there's

1478
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 3: been crazy upsets all over the place. And we'll see

1479
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 3: what happens with Georgia Tech and pitt Right now, pit

1480
01:06:00,560 --> 01:06:03,520
Speaker 3: leading seven to nothing and the water of the game

1481
01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:08,240
Speaker 3: advances to the ACC Championship game, so potentially we will

1482
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 3: have an interesting result at least to talk through the

1483
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 3: majority of the first half here with you. But we

1484
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:17,200
Speaker 3: haven't had anything really crazy in the world of college

1485
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,320
Speaker 3: football today, which is almost get a chance to catch

1486
01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 3: your breath. It's the second last week of the regular season.

1487
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,600
Speaker 3: You're just like, Okay, we can start to ease this

1488
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:26,440
Speaker 3: thing up a little bit.

1489
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, we finally get to breathe on this. It should

1490
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:29,760
Speaker 1: be crazy tomorrow.

1491
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:31,640

Speaker 2: Countdown to Kickoff presented by bet MGM every Saturday and

1499
01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:50,240
Speaker 2: Sunday morning right here on Fox Sports Radio and the

1500
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:53,840
Speaker 2: iHeart app. We were talking earlier about exceeding expectations into

1501
01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:55,680
Speaker 2: changing in the guard because we are in a season

1502
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 2: where it feels like certainly the Colts, the Broncos and

1503
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,040
Speaker 2: the Parets deserve far more credit for being the cream

1504
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 2: of the crop in the AFC. That being said, if

1505
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 2: you had a vote on it today, and forgive me

1506
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:08,880
Speaker 2: if you do, and I'm not aware Coach of the

1507
01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:12,520
Speaker 2: year Rabel stichen other like, where are you on that

1508
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:15,240
Speaker 2: conversation because we're we're this deep into the season and

1509
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,800
Speaker 2: we've had so many surprises. But also I can make

1510
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:20,400
Speaker 2: an argument that Nick Sirianni managing to keep whatever this

1511
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:24,840
Speaker 2: drama is under check if Philly deserves some considerate Like

1512
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 2: I don't, I genuinely don't know who should be the

1513
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:28,000
Speaker 2: front runner for Coach of the Year.

1514
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:35,160
Speaker 3: Most sportsbooks have Rabel, and that makes sense. Mike is

1515
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:37,920
Speaker 3: as somebody who covered him for six years here in

1516
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 3: Tennessee and now seeing him go on to have success,

1517
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:42,440
Speaker 3: he just looks, you know, he looks like he is

1518
01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:44,840
Speaker 3: where he belongs in New England. And we'll see if

1519
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:48,160
Speaker 3: the magic doesn't wane at some point in time. If

1520
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 3: they continue to win and they he has more pressure

1521
01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:53,840
Speaker 3: on him to continue to construct a roster that they

1522
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,640
Speaker 3: wouldn't allow him to have full control over here in Tennessee.

1523
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:00,720
Speaker 3: To their detriment, Mike's going to be a pop vote.

1524
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:04,479
Speaker 3: He's a very popular guy. Beyond the fact that they're

1525
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,040
Speaker 3: just winning. He seems to be a bigger star in

1526
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:09,480
Speaker 3: the middle of all this than his MVP candidate, a quarterback,

1527
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:11,800
Speaker 3: and rightfully so, he's almost like a you know, he's

1528
01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:14,040
Speaker 3: like a football war hero going home for the first

1529
01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:16,479
Speaker 3: time and then he's being celebrated that way. And he's

1530
01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:20,120
Speaker 3: charismatic and dynamic, and also he's a good coach. He

1531
01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,840
Speaker 3: has won this award before in twenty twenty one with

1532
01:08:22,920 --> 01:08:25,080
Speaker 3: Tennessee there were a number one overall seed. They had

1533
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:27,759
Speaker 3: no business doing it. Derrick Henry broke his foot halfway

1534
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:29,600
Speaker 3: through the season, didn't come back into the playoffs, and

1535
01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:34,040
Speaker 3: they absolutely imploded at home against Joe Burrow and the

1536
01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:37,000
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bengals because Ryan Tannehill threw three interceptions in that game,

1537
01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:39,120
Speaker 3: one of the most traumatic sporting events I think the

1538
01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 3: city of Nashville has ever witnessed. But Mike should not

1539
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:45,800
Speaker 3: be the Coach of the Year this year if we're

1540
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:48,160
Speaker 3: to keep it within the spirit of the award. The

1541
01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:49,880
Speaker 3: last time that he won it. The last time that

1542
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:52,960
Speaker 3: he won it, the Titans, I believe broke the record

1543
01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:56,599
Speaker 3: for a number of players that dressed on a game

1544
01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,639
Speaker 3: day throughout the course of a regular season because they're

1545
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 3: in were everywhere. It was Julio Jones, it was Aj Brown,

1546
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:06,639
Speaker 3: it was Derrick Henry, it was guys on defense. They

1547
01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 3: were a mash unit out there, starting Deonta Foreman, Dontrell Hilliard,

1548
01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:14,120
Speaker 3: buster screen dudes that may have had a moment in

1549
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:16,479
Speaker 3: the league elsewhere, but we're basically on the couch six

1550
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:18,719
Speaker 3: weeks before and now all of a sudden, the Titans

1551
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:20,559
Speaker 3: were bringing them in and winning games on the road

1552
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 3: and at home. It was a ridiculous thing that they

1553
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:27,240
Speaker 3: were able to do. Stikeen Is would be deserving. Certainly,

1554
01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:31,160
Speaker 3: he's done an excellent job, and Daniel Jones benefits from

1555
01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 3: everything that's there, and Stichen is doing a great job

1556
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:36,799
Speaker 3: with him and with all those other pieces in parts.

1557
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 3: But they are the healthiest team in football as far

1558
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,080
Speaker 3: as I can tell. I haven't looked at the games

1559
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:45,200
Speaker 3: lost due to injury metric, which people tend to cite

1560
01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:47,479
Speaker 3: so far this season, but I would have to imagine

1561
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 3: the culture at the bottom of the list there because

1562
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:52,679
Speaker 3: they have basically had all of their pieces on offense

1563
01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:54,639
Speaker 3: the whole way through and are coming off a bye week.

1564
01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:58,400
Speaker 3: It should be Kyle Shanahan. Kyle Shanahan has the forty

1565
01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:01,559
Speaker 3: nine ers, seven and four. That is ridiculous what they

1566
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,400
Speaker 3: are doing. They're playing Monday Night football, hosting the Panthers,

1567
01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 3: who are also a winning football team at this point

1568
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:08,519
Speaker 3: in time. It should be a fun game. Niners are

1569
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:11,160
Speaker 3: favored by I think a touchdown and a half. Last

1570
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:15,280
Speaker 3: I looked, Kyle Shanahan has one of the most efficient

1571
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 3: offenses in the sport this year, but he hasn't been

1572
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:21,080
Speaker 3: starting Brock Perdy for the vast majority of it. It's

1573
01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:23,800
Speaker 3: been Mac Jones. How many games did George Kittle miss?

1574
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:26,880
Speaker 3: Four or five throughout the course the season. McCaffrey's not

1575
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:29,679
Speaker 3: having great success on the ground, but they are finding

1576
01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:33,040
Speaker 3: ways to make him one of the leading receiver targets

1577
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 3: in all of football because they are so dynamic as

1578
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 3: an offense. Pearsall hasn't played. I don't know if you

1579
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,720
Speaker 3: saw Diana Rossini's reporting on Brandon Ayuk last night, but

1580
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,000
Speaker 3: apparently they just signed him to that fat contract this

1581
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:46,360
Speaker 3: offseason and now he's not going to play a game

1582
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 3: for them. At some point they are expected to move

1583
01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 3: on from Brandon Ayuk, which is again just a ridiculous story.

1584
01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:56,360
Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan is a wizard, an absolute wizard, and he

1585
01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:00,519
Speaker 3: by the spirit of this award, and with under standing,

1586
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,439
Speaker 3: what do we have six more weeks of football yet

1587
01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 3: to be played, that dude should be the front runner

1588
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 3: for all of the reasons that I just laid out,

1589
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:10,519
Speaker 3: and he still has that team competing at the highest level.

1590
01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, I think Coach of the Year is

1591
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:17,120
Speaker 2: such a narrative award, and by that I mean so

1592
01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:20,360
Speaker 2: often it is somebody where we think, Okay, their team

1593
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,519
Speaker 2: either was going to suck, should suck, could have sucked,

1594
01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:27,439
Speaker 2: and then didn't, right, Like, that's the big thing to it.

1595
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:30,080
Speaker 2: So part of the reason I think stikeen it kind

1596
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,799
Speaker 2: of falls out of this is because Stich and frankly

1597
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:34,920
Speaker 2: takes over, like this is a team for the culture.

1598
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 2: Over the last two years, it's basically a five hundred

1599
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 2: football team with bad quarterbacks. Now they have a good quarterback.

1600
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,479
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, they are a very good football team.

1601
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,240
Speaker 2: So you know, that's a big, big, big difference. So

1602
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:46,560
Speaker 2: you know, I think part of the reason Vrabel is

1603
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,280
Speaker 2: such a favorite, if we're being honest, is just because

1604
01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:52,400
Speaker 2: the concept was the Patriots suck and now they don't.

1605
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:53,400
Speaker 1: I would challenge that.

1606
01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 2: Remember, coming into this year, Vegas said that they would

1607
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:59,519
Speaker 2: be a favorite in eleven of their games. That was

1608
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:02,960
Speaker 2: before a single play had happened. Vegas said that they

1609
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 2: were going to be the favorite eleven times. So that

1610
01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 2: tells you how easy the schedule is. That tells you

1611
01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,639
Speaker 2: what the expectation really was, at least from Las Vegas.

1612
01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:13,160
Speaker 2: They don't build those casinos for nothing, so I think

1613
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 2: that has to be weighed into how we view Coach

1614
01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:19,800
Speaker 2: of the Year. I also, man, I struggle to figure

1615
01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:21,479
Speaker 2: out how much value Coach of the Year really has

1616
01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:24,560
Speaker 2: because Shane Steike has been Coach of the Year twice.

1617
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 2: But it does say something about your team when you

1618
01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:30,120
Speaker 2: can turn around and find a way to be coach

1619
01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:32,200
Speaker 2: of the Year. So I like your Shanahan. I mean,

1620
01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:35,280
Speaker 2: we forget that it's been a backup quarterback. We may

1621
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:37,479
Speaker 2: end up saying the same thing by the end of

1622
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:39,799
Speaker 2: the year about the Texans. I would keep a sneaky

1623
01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:42,640
Speaker 2: eye under Miko. I mean, if the Texans, if the

1624
01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:45,880
Speaker 2: Texans and Davis Mills can continue, CJ should come back

1625
01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,240
Speaker 2: at some point from this concussion. We all anticipate that,

1626
01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:50,559
Speaker 2: but the fact is they've won some games with their

1627
01:12:50,560 --> 01:12:52,479
Speaker 2: backup quarterback. I like that call by you. When you've

1628
01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,760
Speaker 2: been decimated by injuries, your world is different. A quick

1629
01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 2: update here. Utah has gotten the ball back. They've gotten

1630
01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:00,680
Speaker 2: the ball back, they have the ball, they will have

1631
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:02,960
Speaker 2: the opportunity to tie the game. We will get you

1632
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 2: updated on what's happening and what could be the wildest

1633
01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:07,760
Speaker 2: ending of the day in college football. Plus coming up

1634
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:10,000
Speaker 2: next time for the single greatest game show in the

1635
01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:12,040
Speaker 2: history of all of sports talk radio.

1636
01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:15,240
Speaker 1: Would you rather coming at you next? Fox Sports Radio.

1637
01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:20,839
Speaker 2: We got third and goal right now as we speak,

1638
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:25,720
Speaker 2: Utah taking on and they are in for a touchdown.

1639
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:30,440
Speaker 2: Utah takes the lead over Kansas State fifty to forty.

1640
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:31,880
Speaker 1: Seven, pending the extra point.

1641
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:36,600
Speaker 2: Dan Pierre with a one yard touchdown fifty six seconds

1642
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:39,040
Speaker 2: to go, fifty six seconds to go. In this we

1643
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:42,439
Speaker 2: are pending a huge extra point difference between a field

1644
01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:44,919
Speaker 2: goal being able to tie it or needing a touchdown

1645
01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:47,320
Speaker 2: to win it. But there are fifty six seconds left.

1646
01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:49,959
Speaker 2: In a Utah win, that would mean that the BYU

1647
01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:52,560
Speaker 2: game has tremendous consequence for the Big twelve Championship.

1648
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:54,080
Speaker 1: So wild night.

1649
01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:56,760
Speaker 2: He's Buck rising up. Jason Fitzbuckin fits on Fox Sports Radio.

1650
01:13:56,800 --> 01:14:00,799
Speaker 2: First first to weird outcome of the day, first traumatic outcome,

1651
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,360
Speaker 2: I should say, although, keep an eye on an Upsettler.

1652
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:06,759
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh is up on Georgia Tech early in that game,

1653
01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 2: so we'll see before we get to the single greatest

1654
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:10,840
Speaker 2: game show in history. I figure we'll see if this

1655
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:13,679
Speaker 2: extra point goes up, so we will keep you updated

1656
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:15,439
Speaker 2: to kick the snap.

1657
01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:15,880
Speaker 1: It's good.

1658
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:20,040
Speaker 2: We got fifty one forty seven defensive struggle here youtah

1659
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:23,200
Speaker 2: up on Kansas State, fifty four seconds to go on

1660
01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:25,360
Speaker 2: this one, so we'll keep you updating on if there's

1661
01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:27,639
Speaker 2: any additional chaos in the meantime. Buck, are you ready

1662
01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 2: for this? Are you ready for this moment? It is

1663
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 2: time for the single greatest game show in the history

1664
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:33,120
Speaker 2: of sports Ark Radio.

1665
01:14:33,360 --> 01:14:39,480
Speaker 1: It is time for wood you.

1666
01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:41,040
Speaker 3: Rather, I don't think we did that well.

1667
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:41,719
Speaker 1: No, that wasn't bad.

1668
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, once again, not not bad, guys, but I just

1669
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:47,400
Speaker 4: think like the first word wasn't quite there, and then

1670
01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:50,720
Speaker 4: you kind of like use that to sort of synchronize yourselves.

1671
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 3: So as long as there's no second I have to

1672
01:14:52,840 --> 01:14:54,680
Speaker 3: go like a full second ahead of him. Because of

1673
01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:55,799
Speaker 3: this delay, I'm so confused.

1674
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:57,960
Speaker 4: As long as you start jumping in a full second ahead,

1675
01:14:57,960 --> 01:14:59,599
Speaker 4: then I think we should be golden for next time.

1676
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:00,439
Speaker 1: You know.

1677
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:03,680
Speaker 9: I'll give you this, guys, I really do mind you. You

1678
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:05,519
Speaker 9: guys have already done it before you guys, just.

1679
01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:07,479
Speaker 2: You have to like we've seen it. We have proof

1680
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 2: of content. Better to be lucky than good, y'all, better

1681
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:11,080
Speaker 2: to be lucky good.

1682
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:13,200
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1683
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:14,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ian's gonna give us a statement.

1684
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:18,400
Speaker 2: We'll decide would we rather, and we'll go through this

1685
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 2: and say, OK, I will say, Ian, we missed you

1686
01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:20,559
Speaker 2: last week.

1687
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:22,680
Speaker 1: Shay Shane did a great job. Shae always does a

1688
01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:25,160
Speaker 1: great job. Shake gets us weird? Would you rather so?

1689
01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 2: Like I I like, there's a lot of faith in

1690
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:30,160
Speaker 2: you right now, Ian to come through big with some

1691
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:32,360
Speaker 2: would you rather that are not going to be that?

1692
01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:35,040
Speaker 2: I don't want any weird feet things. And then let's

1693
01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:36,599
Speaker 2: just try and keep the whole room comfortable.

1694
01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:37,439
Speaker 1: Can you do this for us?

1695
01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:37,720
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1696
01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:39,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean we all know that Shae is a

1697
01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:42,679
Speaker 4: big fan of feet things, so we can just yeah, he's.

1698
01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 1: The rest of the Fox Sports Radio.

1699
01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:46,720
Speaker 3: No. I did not know that now the country knows

1700
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:47,479
Speaker 3: that too. The life.

1701
01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:56,759
Speaker 1: Let's spind the wheel before we all get fired. All right, yeah,

1702
01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:58,080
Speaker 1: so let's start with this one.

1703
01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,840
Speaker 4: Would you rather have the ability to eff lessly run

1704
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:03,559
Speaker 4: at one hundred miles per hour or fly at ten

1705
01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:04,200
Speaker 4: miles per hour?

1706
01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:12,160
Speaker 3: Oh, effortlessly run at one hundred miles an hour or fly.

1707
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:16,080
Speaker 3: I'd probably fly just the convenience of flight ten miles

1708
01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:18,400
Speaker 3: an hour. You're going to the snail's pace. But I'm

1709
01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:20,160
Speaker 3: not moving at ten miles an hour in my normal

1710
01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:24,080
Speaker 3: life anyway, So why not take the opportunity to expedite

1711
01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:25,280
Speaker 3: the process slightly?

1712
01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:28,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so I'm gonna play shoes on the other foot

1713
01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,080
Speaker 2: game here. Right, let's just imagine a scenario. Buck Rising

1714
01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:33,000
Speaker 2: and I are that party together. We're at a CMA

1715
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:35,719
Speaker 2: after party. Right, we just watched and walk the red carpet.

1716
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,519
Speaker 2: We're dressed to the nines, we're feeling good about ourselves.

1717
01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:40,080
Speaker 2: And I stand out the room and I'm like, thanks

1718
01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:44,840
Speaker 2: to your brother, I'm in yes. So you know, I

1719
01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:46,720
Speaker 2: look at Buck, I look at the room. I'm like, hey,

1720
01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:47,639
Speaker 2: I got this party trick?

1721
01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:49,400
Speaker 1: Oh what is it? I can run one hundred miles

1722
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:51,439
Speaker 1: an hour? So all of a sudden, I do that.

1723
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:54,320
Speaker 2: The whole room would erupt at me running one hundred

1724
01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:54,800
Speaker 2: miles an hour.

1725
01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:56,240
Speaker 1: Buck would even be impressed.

1726
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:58,120
Speaker 2: If I say I can fly, and I get up

1727
01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,959
Speaker 2: and I fly ten miles an hour, Buck would immediately

1728
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:02,840
Speaker 2: make fun of me for not being able to fly faster.

1729
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:04,519
Speaker 2: I want to be able to run by the way

1730
01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:07,120
Speaker 2: Utah can run, by the way. They just picked off

1731
01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:10,639
Speaker 2: Kansas State. This game is over, Utah will survive. So yeah,

1732
01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:12,679
Speaker 2: I don't want to be mocked for my flying ability,

1733
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:14,920
Speaker 2: and Buck would. Buck would troll me enough that he

1734
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 2: would get in a car drive ten miles an hour

1735
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:19,439
Speaker 2: just to sit under me and be like, look at this,

1736
01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:21,559
Speaker 2: I'm doing this in a car. You think it's cool

1737
01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:23,040
Speaker 2: you can find I don't want that. I don't need

1738
01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:23,479
Speaker 2: that smoke.

1739
01:17:24,280 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, but like if you were at a party or something,

1740
01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:28,120
Speaker 4: it's not like you would be like you wouldn't have

1741
01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:29,920
Speaker 4: enough room to run one hundred miles an hour at

1742
01:17:29,960 --> 01:17:31,680
Speaker 4: least if you're you know, floating, you're not.

1743
01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:32,400
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1744
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:35,599
Speaker 3: If I just start in the air mid party, I'm

1745
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:39,559
Speaker 3: some kind of like godlike figure, which would delight me

1746
01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 3: even more than my ego already makes me think that

1747
01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:43,120
Speaker 3: I am no.

1748
01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:46,280
Speaker 2: No, I'm walking outside to Lower Broad and I'm showing

1749
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:48,799
Speaker 2: everybody one hundred miles an hour because you said instantly

1750
01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:50,400
Speaker 2: run one hundred miles an hour. If I can go

1751
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:53,080
Speaker 2: zero to one hundred, right up and down Lower Broad

1752
01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:56,360
Speaker 2: three four times, whoa, whoa, oh, smoke coming off my

1753
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:57,080
Speaker 2: feet seas.

1754
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 1: Let's go okay.

1755
01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:08,200
Speaker 4: Would you rather always be sticky all over your body

1756
01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:09,600
Speaker 4: or always be itchy.

1757
01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 1: All over your body sick?

1758
01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:14,400
Speaker 2: I don't want to have to be itch itchy. Itchy

1759
01:18:14,439 --> 01:18:17,160
Speaker 2: is bad, all right, itchy itchy. If you itch guys,

1760
01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:19,599
Speaker 2: go to the clinic. If you're sticky, you're just sticky

1761
01:18:19,680 --> 01:18:21,639
Speaker 2: all right, Like there's just no like, I'm out, I'm

1762
01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:22,240
Speaker 2: out on itchy.

1763
01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:23,519
Speaker 1: I will take sticky all day long.

1764
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:26,680
Speaker 2: Sticky is obnoxious, but no out on all on, just

1765
01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:29,320
Speaker 2: because then you're constantly scratching yourself and nobody wants it.

1766
01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:31,400
Speaker 2: Like it's weird when you're at the table and you're

1767
01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:34,400
Speaker 2: constantly scratching yourself. If you know that I'm sticky, you'll

1768
01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:36,080
Speaker 2: just you'll give me a little bit of space, which

1769
01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:37,720
Speaker 2: also I won't hate in the booth. You won't sit

1770
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:38,479
Speaker 2: next to me for the.

1771
01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:40,559
Speaker 4: People who don't know though, Like if you first meet someone,

1772
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 4: if you meet someone for the first time and you

1773
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:42,840
Speaker 4: shake their hands.

1774
01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:45,639
Speaker 2: Oh no, I love the idea of looking I'm looking

1775
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:47,240
Speaker 2: Buck in the eye. Like again, We're on the red

1776
01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:49,559
Speaker 2: carpet of the CMAS and I walk up and like,

1777
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:51,439
Speaker 2: you know, I don't know, Blake Shell walks up and

1778
01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, Blake, hold.

1779
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:53,639
Speaker 1: On, hold on, I'm sticky.

1780
01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:55,639
Speaker 2: Don't touch me, like I just want to be able

1781
01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,840
Speaker 2: to say that, just having no context to why I'm sticky.

1782
01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 1: Don't tell me? Then yeah, no.

1783
01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:07,280
Speaker 3: Enough, that's the second time he's growled, Mary, find him,

1784
01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:07,800
Speaker 3: find him?

1785
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:09,679
Speaker 1: Right, this was intentional.

1786
01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:13,360
Speaker 3: Go ahead, I will take the itchiness. I think that

1787
01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 3: you know, sticky can sometimes lead to itchy in that

1788
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:19,479
Speaker 3: particular situation, depending on which clinics Fitzy is suggesting that

1789
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:21,679
Speaker 3: you visit. But I would prefer to just I can

1790
01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:25,280
Speaker 3: subtly itch I cannot be subtly sticky. That's disgusting.

1791
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:27,280
Speaker 1: Just that's the quote of the night.

1792
01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:27,599
Speaker 2: One more?

1793
01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:29,080
Speaker 1: Can we squeeze one more? Any and you can do

1794
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:30,000
Speaker 1: this on God's work?

1795
01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:34,439
Speaker 3: Shake did like one? All right?

1796
01:19:34,479 --> 01:19:36,519
Speaker 4: Well those were kind of more negative. This is more positive.

1797
01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:39,479
Speaker 4: So would you rather have every traffic let you ever

1798
01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,559
Speaker 4: approach be green? Or never have to wait in line

1799
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:43,080
Speaker 4: ever again?

1800
01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:45,760
Speaker 3: Oh the line? No, I know lines, ever, I don't

1801
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:47,679
Speaker 3: wait lines now. I'm never waiting in lines again.

1802
01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,040
Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than the personal hell of getting stuck

1803
01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,519
Speaker 2: at every red light, which happens to me every time

1804
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:55,200
Speaker 2: I go up and down Gallaxton Road in Nashville. So no,

1805
01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:57,479
Speaker 2: I want all greens. I want all greens. Stick with

1806
01:19:57,560 --> 01:19:59,760
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. That's like hitting a green light every

1807
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:01,479
Speaker 2: sing good time you drive. Thanks for hanging out, Have

1808
01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 2: a great night.
