1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: It only took thirteen weeks, but the Pack twelve Ring 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:09,399 Speaker 1: of Suck is completed. Why did Oregon try to ruin 3 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: the Pack twelves chances at the College Football Playoff? And 4 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 1: why are coaches fist fighting in the conference? On the sideline? 5 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 1: Who's now going to bowl games? And where are they going? 6 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: Did Clay Helton do enough to save his job? Mike 7 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: Bone wouldn't give the answers to him. I'm George Rice 8 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Stir with Ralph Amston and this is the Pack twelve apostles. Ralph, 9 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: Just when you thought you could make heads details of 10 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: what the hell is going on in the Pac twelve, 11 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: Oregon goes and just has an inexplicably bad performance against 12 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: Arizona State. Washington loses to who everybody has as the 13 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: worst team in the Pack twelve. You have Oregon State 14 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: in Washington State score over a hundred points. Like I 15 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: told you, Pack twelve officials are in the news again. 16 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: I can't make heads and tails of what the hell 17 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: is going on Rounph. Yeah, so I was out at 18 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: that game at Sun Devil Stadium and something's up with 19 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert when it when it comes to playing the 20 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: Sun Devils he is just subpar. He's he's sure fire 21 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 1: first round NFL draft pick. But if you remember at 22 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: halftime of last year's game back in at Austen, something happened. 23 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: He had a terrible, terrible second half. I think he 24 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: finished the game three of eleven for thirteen yards with 25 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: two interceptions just in that half, and then the first 26 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: three quarters of this game, I think he was ten 27 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: for twenty one and through two interceptions right away in 28 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: in the beginning of the fourth quarter. He has forty 29 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: seven touchdowns George and nine interceptions over his last twenty 30 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: one games. Four of those nine interceptions came against a 31 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: s U. He's sub fifty completion percentage over the last 32 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 1: two years against a s U. I don't know what 33 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: it is about the Sun Devils, who obviously haven't been 34 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: able to stop anybody else. I mean, you just watched 35 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: what Jake Luton did to them, Anthony Gordon did to them, 36 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: so you know, it's really really hard to figure out 37 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: why Justin Herbert has such a problem playing against Arizona State. 38 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: And he almost fixed it. He almost fixed it there 39 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: at the end, you know, using Johnny Johnson all over 40 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: the field to to claw them back into the game, 41 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: but it wasn't enough, and now the entire Pack twelve 42 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: is uh wondering if they're going to be left out 43 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: of the mix yet again. Yeah, so it seemed like 44 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion that if Oregon winning twelve straight games 45 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: and then well winning eleven straight games and then Utah 46 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: coming in at eleven and one with USC clearly gonna 47 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: end up, you know, a top eighteen team probably that 48 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: that you were gonna have. Okay, they're gonna have Oregon 49 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,119 Speaker 1: was gonna have a quality win, and Utah was gonna 50 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: have a quality loss. They meeting in the Pac twelve 51 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: Championship and the winner gets into college football playoffs provided 52 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:27,839 Speaker 1: l s U beats Georgia and Ohio State doesn't lose 53 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: in the Big Ten Championship though, and that those are 54 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: two pretty safe bets that assuming that those things happened, 55 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: it was a pretty straightforward path and pretty much a 56 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: lot for the Pack twelve to get a Pack a 57 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: um a college football playoff spot. But here is where 58 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: the hypocrisy lies in the college football playoffs, Ralph is that. Okay, 59 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: So when Georgia lost to South Carolina, South Carolina was 60 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: two and three, they fell seven spots in the Ape Pole, 61 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: Oregon loses to Arizona State, who at least is five 62 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: hundred and had beaten Michigan State. It's not like they 63 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: had beaten nobody like like South Carolina has and and 64 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: also gotten beat by terrible teams, and then Oregon falls 65 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: eight spots. So I'm interested to see how the committee 66 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: handles this because they do not give grace to Pack 67 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: twelve teams, especially when SEC teams have the same exact scenario, 68 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: and so it should not hurt the Pack twelve as 69 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: bad as it actually will hurt the Pack twelve. Utah's 70 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: path forward is is interesting to me because we're at 71 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: the point right now where we're probably gonna have two 72 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: SEC teams regardless. The way that I'm looking at it 73 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: is you're you're probably going to end up with two. 74 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: I don't believe there's any scenario in which the committee 75 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: would put three. I think that that would make the 76 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: entire process a joke. But you could have three in 77 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: the top five, especially if Georgia finds a way to 78 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: to beat l s U in the SEC championship, because 79 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: I don't think that there's any way that L s 80 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: U drops if they can win their last game and 81 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: have their only loss being the SEC Championship and have 82 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: a victory over Alabama. I think they're in regardless. Um, 83 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: I think that there's a pretty good chance that you 84 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: know that Georgia will be in the argument even if 85 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: they lose the SEC Championship game. But I think they 86 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: probably obviously slip behind Alabama. But you you could really 87 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: have three in the top five if Georgia wins SEC Championship. 88 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: But I don't think that they'll take three. Um, you 89 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: have the pack twelve. That would be silly. That would 90 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: be silly considering that if Alabama beats Auburn. That that's 91 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: assuming Alabama beat beats Auburn because bow Nick some kind 92 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: of way tries to pull rabbits out of his hats 93 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: at the end of games. Um, even though he's terrible 94 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: through the through the first beginning quarters. But with Auburn's 95 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: I mean, with Alabama's with Mac Jones and quarterback who knows. 96 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: But I'm wondering that if I'm like, okay, Alabama would 97 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: have beaten a grand total of nobody this year except Auburn. Nobody. 98 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: I mean, they had a paper thin SEC schedule, They 99 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: didn't play Georgia, didn't play Florida. They would have played 100 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: Auburn and l s U. But that's it. I mean, 101 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: those are the only two games on their schedule, no 102 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: non conference games, and they have a November cupcake, Like, 103 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: how could you award them a a third college football 104 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: playoff spot, especially with two out this that would be 105 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: like that would be the death of the college November Cupcakes. 106 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: I had my first introduction to UH to SEC fans 107 00:06:54,560 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: defending UM schools. I mean, just there. I didn't realize 108 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: how many just Conference SEC fans there are. I had 109 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: Florida fans and my mentions all weekend long because I 110 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: made one joke and it wasn't even a good joke 111 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: about how brave the SEC was in their November scheduling. 112 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: And ay, it was like all weekend long of people 113 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: calling me names, and you know what, it was like 114 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: Florida fans because people that didn't even have anything to 115 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: do with who I was talking about and UM and 116 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: I mean there was a bunch of them and they 117 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: were all piling on and and I said. My whole 118 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: thing was, yeah, it's fine, it's fine that you play cupcakes, 119 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: just don't do it in September and November. Don't do 120 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: them both. That's it. That's that was That's my only point. 121 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: And I don't think that's a controversial point. But they 122 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: are so sensitive their feelings. Their feelings are as soft 123 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: as their November schedules, and they're like, wow, but we 124 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: have to play each other. And I was like, everybody 125 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: has to play each other. That was a conference game. 126 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: You're supposed to play conference games. I don't get that excuse. 127 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: We have to play each other, so we deserve a 128 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: break and then the grind and then and then it's 129 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: a the SEC grind. How can you have a grind 130 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: when you only play eight conference and then you're playing 131 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: schedule rout say the SEC grind, George, They say the 132 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: SEC Grind. But what I noticed is SEC fans only 133 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: claim the top five teams any given year of the 134 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: four team that are in the conference. So how so 135 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: how do they do this? What talk to me about 136 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: this circular reasoning? Because they say, we deserve these November 137 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: cupcakes because we play in the SEC Grind. But the 138 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: SEC is only made up of its five best teams, 139 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: so ignore the bottom nine and the fact that it's 140 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: the FCS teams or they lost a group of five teams, 141 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: or the old miss lost to Cal at home, so 142 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: ignore them. But also we deserve these November cupcakes because 143 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: we have to play those teams that we don't even claim. 144 00:08:54,400 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: How does that make sense? Uh? You do, Arkansas. There's 145 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: not a team in the Pack twelve that Arkansas could be. 146 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: First of all, there's there may be one. I mean 147 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: like there there's no guarantee that Tennessee or Missouri would 148 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:21,239 Speaker 1: even beat a Pack twelve team. Either, there is Mississippi 149 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: State who who could find a way to beat somebody probably, 150 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: And then you get you get a bunch of people 151 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: saying cover Arizona State. So they're all taking shots to 152 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: Arizona State. And I was like, hey, guys, I'm a 153 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: Wyoming fan. What's our record against the SEC is here? 154 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: And they're like, well, Missouri doesn't count. They don't even 155 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: have a bowl and they're not they're not technically real 156 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: SEC yet anyway until they do something in the SEC. 157 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, so, but that's a hard 158 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: game for you guys. MISSOO is hard when you when 159 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: you play them, when your team plays them, and they're like, well, yeah, 160 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: SEC game, I'm like, Okay, well, then where are we 161 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: going with this? I don't then I'm arguing. I'm arguing 162 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: people who were aviators to cracker barrel and sandals two 163 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: job interviews, and I'm feeling like I'm I'm gonna make 164 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: progress against them, and it's obvious I never will. They 165 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: will not let common sense get in the way of 166 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: their argument. Row, it will not happen. I have had 167 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: SEC fans just just torch my torch my mentions to 168 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: where I couldn't even read anything else. I think it's funny. 169 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: They think it makes you mad. It doesn't. I don't care, 170 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: um it. It's just hilarious to me that they just 171 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: will not Like there's nothing that you can tell them 172 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: to make them understand that, Hey, when you are only 173 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: judged against yourself, when you don't need to play multiple 174 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: nonconference games to get respect, and then you can discount 175 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: the teams that do poorly in the conference, and then 176 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 1: you have November cupcakes while other teams are playing real teams, 177 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 1: and then you get who stood up the schedule. This 178 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: is a prime example. So Penn State lost this weekend 179 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: to Ohio State, and while Alabama and UM a bunch 180 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: of other schools had just zero competition. I mean even 181 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: the I mean it'd be different if they played you know, 182 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: North Dakota State, but they were playing Western Carolina, who's awful. 183 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: They're awful in their conference, so they definitely can't even 184 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: put a serviceable you know, um fight up against them. 185 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: And I always wonder at what point in time will 186 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: fans get upset and do something different and say, you 187 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 1: know what, we don't want these games. We don't want 188 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: to waste our season ticket package money, we don't want 189 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: to waste our time coming to these games. It's absolutely 190 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: awful and it's dreadful. But I okay. People always talk 191 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: about is it the four best teams in the College 192 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: Football Playoff or is it the four most deserving teams? 193 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 1: I would actually argue that the four best teams should 194 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: be the most deserving teams, in that Alabama should not 195 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: be in the College Football Playoff because they have played 196 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: nobody you should and they haven't beat anybody to this point. 197 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: That part of being the best team is that you 198 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: jump through the requisite hoops that you need to jump through. 199 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: And it's not just about oh, who has the most talent, 200 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: because if you just go off of who has the 201 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: most talent, then guess what, there's no need to play 202 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: the football games. Rout. I agree, and I mean, let's 203 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: just look at let's just look at some of these 204 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: scores real quick. Okay, Alabama three over three and nine 205 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: Western Carolina, Kentucky he to seven over the seven and 206 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: five U. T. Martin Skyhawks, Vanderbilt, Vanderbilt who had two 207 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: wins going in two wins, going in thirty eight to 208 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: nothing over Eastern Tennessee State Mississippi State to seven over 209 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: Ebilene Christian who is four and seven on the season. 210 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: We're defending this Sanford fifty two to nothing loss to 211 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: Auburn five and seven on the season. They're crushing FCS 212 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: teams a couple of weeks before FCS playoffs like this 213 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: is this is the whole thing is ridiculous. Those teams 214 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: came in and scored a total of seventeen points in 215 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: five games. And you're gonna tell me and and and 216 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me like Nick Saban treats them like 217 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: he treats preparing for Auburn or l s U. The students. 218 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: The fact that the students don't come to these games 219 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: should tell you everything. You need to know your own. 220 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: They want to take it seriously and getting fights online 221 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: about it, but they don't even go. They don't even 222 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: show up to these games. And then and then they 223 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: get mad at the students. Then they get mad at 224 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: the students. So I I guess we could just move 225 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: on to the Pack twelve Ring of suck. So the 226 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: Pack twelve Ring of suck. This is the thing that 227 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: came out a few years ago where eventually because because 228 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: no team has finished undefeated in conference play. Part of 229 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: that is because of how the Pack twelve sets up 230 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: a scheduled, They set it up for parody. They set 231 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: it up for four teams to have the most difficult 232 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: possible roads instead of like they don't set it up 233 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: like the SEC scheduled schedules it like before big games. 234 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: You get it by week, you know, and all of 235 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: these things. But anyways, so Oregon losing completed the Ring 236 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: of suck. So here is what you have. Arizona State 237 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: beat Oregon, who beat CAW who beat Washington State, who 238 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: beat Colorado, who beat Stanford, who beat Washington who beat 239 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: USC who beat Utah, who beat Oregon State, who beat 240 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: Arizona who beat U C l A who beat Arizona State. 241 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: Every team is now covered and it's absolutely awful. But 242 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: we'll we'll hit the rest of the headlines too. But 243 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: first thing, Ralph, do you have your Pack twelve power 244 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: rankings ready to go? I mean, sure I have? Why not? 245 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: How about? Oh my gosh, I don't know what to 246 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: do this week because of Washington. Washington kind of ruins 247 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: everything they were to me. They were a top four 248 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: ish team and now nothing matters. I don't. Oh, of 249 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: course they ruined. Of course they ruined it for for you, 250 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: because you've been carrying the water for Washington all year long. 251 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: And I've been telling you, Ralph, you have to look 252 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: at the results like you have to trust who they've 253 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: shown you that that they are instead of and you 254 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: were going off the talent, how much talent they have. 255 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: But this is a three and five Pack twelve team 256 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: right now. This is the I mean, the weird fire 257 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: Chris Peterson people. We're starting to make sense at one point. 258 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't understand because it's not like 259 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: you know, we always talk about are we gonna get 260 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: good Stephen Montes or bad Stephen Montes. Well, guess who 261 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: showed up for Colorado bad Stephen Montes, and Colorado still 262 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: gets a home win over Washington. I don't. I I don't, honestly, George, 263 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: I don't even know how to do pack. I I 264 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: can do Utah's at the top. Now we're we go 265 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: from here? I don't really what are you talking about? 266 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: Where do you go from there? You just got them 267 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: talking about the Ring of sucks. So okay, So you're 268 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: just talking about the ring of suck, right, And you 269 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: spent all season long scolding me for putting teams above 270 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: other teams that had lost to each other. Now, it 271 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: was only in the beginning of the season when we 272 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: had information like you put Cow had just beat Washington, 273 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: both teams were undefeated, and you still had Washington above Cow. 274 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: That that's totally different than play than than we're in 275 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: week thirteen. After week thirteen, and you've got teams four 276 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: and four in the conference, three and six, two and six, 277 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: you know they've all beat each other multiple times. This 278 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: is totally different. So I will not let you're out 279 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: to try to depend this on me. You You're gonna 280 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: have to be brave. I do so. I do most 281 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: of my rankings. I do most of them based on 282 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: like whether or not I believe that a team has 283 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: a future, Well, there is no real future. Like we're 284 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: getting to the end and everyone has beat everyone. There's 285 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: a really good chance that we could end up with 286 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: like six six and six teams who all have losing 287 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 1: records in the conference. And I don't really know what 288 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 1: to do with that. I don't really know what to 289 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: do with where I would have had Oregon State in 290 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: Washington State had the last play not gone the way 291 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: that it did, And the fact that a s U 292 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: lost to Oregon State by one and beat Washington State 293 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: on the last play, the last offensive play of the game. 294 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: I can't I don't know if I can do this. 295 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: I honestly don't know how to do we keep doing? 296 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: Does Oregon State a top two team? They would have 297 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: to right, of course, even though they were down twenty 298 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: four to seven a few minutes into the fourth quarter. 299 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: At least an air is going to a a state team 300 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: that has lost the Colorado It was. It was a 301 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: three point victory, Ralph, it was a three point victory. 302 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: All we're doing totals now, Okay, alright, no, no, but 303 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: there there are no moral victories. How However, if Okay, 304 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: you were, you were sitting in the game. If if 305 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: Oregon does not bite on a double move on third 306 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: and sixty, a twelve yard double move on third and sixteen, 307 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: then then guess what the game's over. I think we 308 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: both can't agree that Arizona State loses that game, or 309 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: at least Oregon takes the lead if they get a 310 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: stop right there. The momentum was just the results of 311 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: the results. Honestly, man, I don't I don't know what 312 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: to do here. I'll do what I've done all year 313 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: and just throw some stuff out and hope that it 314 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: makes sense, even though I know that I know that 315 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: it doesn't. Um, But I guess at this point you 316 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: do have to drop Washington pretty heavily. But then there's 317 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: some teams that Washington just crushed that they shouldn't be behind. 318 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 1: And so I don't know, Man, you give me your 319 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: bottom seven. Okay, So I got Arizona in the last spot. 320 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any dude, they have coaches fighting 321 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: on the sideline. You're you're losing, and your coaches are fighting. 322 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 1: You're the last team. When you pack twell, then I 323 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: got Yeah. So for anybody who doesn't know Ionnau, the 324 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: uncle of dj Y, consensus number one player in recruiting class, 325 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: who was going to Clemson to play quarterback. UM got 326 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: in a fist fight with their whoever's coaching their linebackers now, 327 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: which I think their linebackers coach is. I don't even 328 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: know if their linebackers coach is a permanent position coach, 329 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: because they just fired their defensive coordinator as well, Mark 330 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,719 Speaker 1: oh Yates Um and Chuck Cecil had taken over. So 331 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: I guess they put like twelve players out on the 332 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: field against Oregon, and then they responded by putting ten 333 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: players upfield against Oregon and it resulted in a sideline 334 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: fist fight. Punches were thrown, and now i Iona has 335 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: been dismissed from University of Arizona, and Um, you know, 336 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: they brought him in to try to have kind of 337 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: like a recruiting pipeline UM with with some of the 338 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: Polynesian players. And also it was his job the landfour 339 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: star Jason Harris, whose brother Jalen Harris is already on 340 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: the team and whose dad, Shawn Harris, is in the 341 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: Ring of Honor, and he hasn't done that, and so 342 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 1: they let him go and that puts him in sort 343 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,959 Speaker 1: of precarious recruiting situations. So when George talks about punches 344 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: being thrown on the sideline, that's who it was. And 345 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: uh and and yeah it's University of Louise. So I 346 00:21:51,840 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: have Arizona at number twelve, Stanford at number eleven, Colorado 347 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: at number ten. I just can't ignore how poor they 348 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: have been, Like, they have been absolutely atrocious, absolutely atrocious. 349 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:19,959 Speaker 1: And oh wait, um yeah, so they have been absolutely atrocious. 350 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: Um but I kind of feel like I should put 351 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: U c l A there, but I don't know. Um, 352 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: Then I got Oregon State at number nine, Washington State 353 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 1: at number eight, U c l A At number seven. 354 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 1: That's my bottom twelve, Ralph, Well that's my twelve to seven, 355 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: all right. I mean that's so I'll give you mine, 356 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: even though I don't I don't feel very good about them. 357 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: And number twelve, I've got University of Arizona. They are 358 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: They're the clear, clear worst team. They are. They are 359 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: the absolute worst team in the entire conference. Even though 360 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 1: they do have a couple of wins in conferences, absolutely 361 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: nothing to be proud of. They're getting blown and out 362 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: every single week. They've had to fire coaches. Everything's coming apart, 363 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: and the thing that they're doing at quarterback is just 364 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: an all time bone head, weird head scratching move. Um. 365 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: I got Stanford at number eleven. Uh. They obviously were 366 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: in the game against Cal, they did not win it. Um, 367 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,680 Speaker 1: and just everything looks like it's like they're going the 368 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: way of the Buffalo unless they come back next year 369 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: and have a good year. If they do two years 370 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: in a row of this, then there's there. There's definitely 371 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: big trouble and I don't necessarily see this recruiting class 372 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: as being Stanford salvation. It will be really interesting to 373 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: see if David Shaw is still around, if he doesn't 374 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: take an opportunity to do something else um, which might 375 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: be advisable at this point. But if he, if, if he, 376 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: if he's able to bring them back, then that will 377 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: be a huge credit to him. Um. But yeah, they're 378 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: they're they're in bad shape right now. I've got U. C. 379 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: L A At number ten, um, which a noo. There's 380 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: another thing that I don't feel very good about, considering 381 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: that they are own. They're one of five teams in 382 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: the conference that have at least four conference wins. Um, 383 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 1: so they probably deserve a little bit more respect than this, 384 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: but at this point, what they're doing defensively is just 385 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: it's it's putrid. Um, I've got at number nine, I've 386 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: got Colorado and number eight Oregon State, and that rounds 387 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,400 Speaker 1: me out at number seven. I guess we're gonna give 388 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: that to Wazoo since they had a one point win 389 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: over arrogant Oregon State. So I got I got Washington 390 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: State at number seven, all right, that brings us to 391 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: number uh six, number six in the back twelve, I 392 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 1: have University of Washington. I can't argue with the results. 393 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: They're three and five in the conference. They are three 394 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: and five. This is a team that has lost a 395 00:24:51,880 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: Stanford Cow, uh Stanford Cow, Oregon and who else. They 396 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: just lost to Colorado as well. This is absolutely atrocious. 397 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: Like there's like there is some like I started listening 398 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: to the fire Chris Peterson crowd, and I was like, well, 399 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: I guess I gotta make it some points. But we'll 400 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: talk about that. UM. I got cal at number five. 401 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: Chase Garbergs is back. This team looks much better. UM 402 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: had they had him all all game for USC last week. 403 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: I don't I don't even know. I don't even know 404 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: how that goes. But um, number four, I got Arizona State. 405 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: They got bumped way up the rankings. You take down 406 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: the top two team when they are clearly better than everybody, 407 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: have been just demolishing everybody else. Then you get moved up. 408 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: USC is firmly, firmly in the number three spot. They 409 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: can't move. There's nobody that can move against above them 410 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 1: at this point in time after next week, because they 411 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: didn't lose they I mean, they have completed their schedule. 412 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: They're eight and four, and then Oregon at number two 413 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: and Utah at one. Ralph, all right, all right, I 414 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: got Washington at number six. Um, ironically, six is a 415 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: number that they have a hard time putting up on 416 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: the football field, and somehow I still have them like 417 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: three spots ahead of Colorado, which makes no sense. At 418 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: number five, I've got Arizona State. Um. Yeah, no, this 419 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: is a mess. I don't even know how I can 420 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: don't even know how I can finish this. I'm getting 421 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: to the point where none of this makes sense. How 422 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: about I just give you my top three the easiest thing, Utah, Oregon, USC. 423 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 1: What am I supposed to do from there. Nobody in 424 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: this conference deserves credit for anything, for anything. I'm gonna, 425 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna, I'm about to I'm about to push my 426 00:26:54,560 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: laptop off the table and quit. Uh. How about all right, 427 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: so I'll give, I'll give, We'll say, We'll say Washington 428 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: A s U cal usc Oregon, Utah. Utah is the 429 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: class of the Pack twelve right now, despite the fact 430 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: that they can't convince a single four star recruit or 431 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: even a three star recruit, or even any recruit with 432 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: any pulse from any state that has a PAC twolve 433 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: school in it to commit to their school. How weird 434 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: is that? Unbelievable? Dude, unbelievable? And do you know what 435 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: the even crazy? Okay, So here's what the craziest part 436 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: about Utah is this. So there were some things that 437 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: we thought that were locks in the Pack twelve, like 438 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: games that you could just say, all right, cool, whatever, 439 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a guaranteed win. Um. Truth be told. 440 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: Everything on paper looks like Colorado is going to get 441 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: hammered by Utah. Right all the information that we have, 442 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: Colorado is either eleventh or twelfth in every important defensive 443 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: statistical category. Stephen Montes is awful. Sometimes there's bad Stephen 444 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: Montez and there's good Stephen Montes, and but still they 445 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: still find a way to win games. So I am 446 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: not I'm telling you this route. I am not counting Utah. 447 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Colorado out of this Utah game. Then it 448 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: would be so packed twelve for Colorado to get ball 449 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: eligible and knock the knock Utah out of the college 450 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: football playoff conversation. Can you think of anything more pactable 451 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: than that? That would be such an enormous headache. But 452 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: I mean it could technically, it could happen. I don't 453 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: I don't see a path for it, not with the 454 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: way that Organs play or with the way that Utah 455 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: is playing right now. Utah is playing right now dominant 456 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: football and so and I know you could have said 457 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: the same thing about um Oregon going into the Arizona 458 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: State game. But like that was in Tempi. That's always 459 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: been a for some reason, even though when you play 460 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: a game at Sundevil Stadium of the fans or your fans, 461 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: everybody struggles in Tempe. I've never understood it. There's not 462 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: anything I mean, it's it's a beautiful playing surface, it's 463 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: a it's fair weather and for some reason, teams you know, 464 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're out there on Mill Avenue 465 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: having a good time the night before. But I've I 466 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: honestly have never understood Arizona State's home field advantage. Yet 467 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: you know it comes in a play that's not going 468 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: to be a factor when when it's Utah and Colorado. Um, 469 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: so I don't see that happening, but I'm sure that, 470 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure that it would be a funny day on 471 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: the internet. There'd be ten times more Larry Scott memes 472 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: if that happened then there were this weekend. Yeah, and okay, 473 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 1: so we can get into the games at this well, 474 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: I see, before we even get into the game games, 475 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: let's let's go over coaches. I want to go through 476 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: every team in the conference real real quick, and you 477 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: tell me if you believe their coach is safe or 478 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: not safe from from being fired this season. Okay, so 479 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: you got um, Utah, We'll we'll just go with the 480 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 1: easy ones first. Utah. I mean, Whittingham is there forever. 481 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure that that that if a vacancy opens up 482 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: elsewhere in the Pact twelve, and I think you know 483 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: the one that I'm talking about the USA. There there 484 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: will be an argument that they should chase somebody like 485 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: with a serious football mind who's going to develop players 486 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden also have access to 487 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: the best talent on the entire West coast. Um. There 488 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: will be people who make that argument. So obviously I 489 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: do not believe that. You know, there have to be 490 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: some pretty shady stuff to come out, um for for 491 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: Kyle Whittingham to to lose his job at at Utah. 492 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: But there's a sliver, sliver, sliver of a chance that 493 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: maybe he ends up somewhere else, if somebody really backs 494 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: up the Brinks truck um and lures him away. But no, 495 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: he's he's good. A agree, he's going nowhere unless it's 496 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: to USC probably um Oregon. Is Mario Christoval safe, Yeah, 497 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: he's safe. I don't know if he's safe from you know, 498 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: sec vacancies, but yeah, he's he in um. You know, 499 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: as long as they don't lose the civil war and 500 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: then turn, as long as they don't end the season 501 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: on some giant skid, as long as the wheels don't 502 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: fall off. I feel like most of his assistants are 503 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: safe now. Now now that I don't know, I want 504 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: Marcus Arroyo to go get a head coaching job. He's 505 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: an obvious fantastic recruiter. He's gotten better as a coordinator. 506 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: But I would not be. I mean I wouldn't be. 507 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: It wouldn't be terrible bring him back, because he's gotten 508 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: significantly better from year one a year two of being 509 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: a coordinator, and your three should only make that even 510 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: even better. I I would assume, so. Um So I 511 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: don't mind. I don't mind anybody saying on the staff. 512 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: Um I do, though, I think that Christo Baul is 513 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: safe from all sec jobs that could come open. The 514 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: only one that could get a little tricky is if 515 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: they mess around and fire Manny Diaz in Miami because 516 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: them dudes are they were losing to f a U 517 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: f I U four teen zero. They got players dancing 518 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: on the sidelines. Come on, man, come on man, it's 519 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: like the Cleveland Browns down there right now. Um you 520 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: got okay, Oregon State safe or not safe? Oh, he's 521 00:32:55,600 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: he's a god there right now. I mean they obviously, um, 522 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: they obviously probably deserve to be in a bowl game 523 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: and aren't going to be in one. Um. My phone 524 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: phones going often eight in the morning out here. Um. 525 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,239 Speaker 1: But no, he's I mean they should just sign him 526 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: to a lifetime contract right now. Oh yeah, he's doing 527 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: a great job, fantastic UM, Arizona State, HERMS safe. I mean, 528 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: unless he decides that he wants to be back on 529 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: TV or something like that. It's really you know, what's 530 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: going to be really interesting is what he does at 531 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, because you know they're he has an offensive 532 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: coordinator in Rob Likns, who he was sort of saddled 533 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: with when Billy napier Head faked and said, yeah, I'll 534 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: stay on his Herms offensive coordinator and then went to 535 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: the University of Louisiana Lafayette, where he's led them to 536 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: a nine and two record in his second year as 537 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: as their head coach. UM. But so it'll be interesting 538 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: to see if he decides to make a change an 539 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, but they'll probably want to keep some continuity 540 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: for Jane Daniels. I don't see really any changes being made. 541 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: Herm is there as long as Ray Anderson is there. 542 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: I always looked at this as a five or six 543 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: year higher um for a phase of his life that 544 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: he wants to see if he can still, you know, 545 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: coach some football and develop some young men and hang 546 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: out with He's got Marvin Lewis out here too, and 547 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: so and maybe Marvin Lewis would be a candidate for 548 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: one of these jobs that that that opens. You never know. 549 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 1: But he's out here with his friends in the sun, 550 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: you know, in good weather, raising his daughters and as 551 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: long as he can get the assistance right or develop them, Um, 552 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna be here for it doesn't matter. They could 553 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 1: go six and six for the next three years. And 554 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: if Ray Anderson wants to keep him, you know he's gonna. 555 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: I totally agree there, um caw with um with Justin Wilcox. 556 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 1: Is he safe? I think honestly, like he's the He's 557 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: the one that I'm the most worried will get picked up. 558 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: But everybody that I talked to says that, like, no, 559 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: he's in the perfect environment for him and for his personality. 560 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: And he's not that way. He's not that guy that 561 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: would be interested in leaving or flirting with leaving like 562 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: Mike Leach always does. But you never know what coaches. 563 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: I don't trust. Oh that I I think that is 564 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: completely whoever told you that is completely I think off 565 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 1: the rails wrong because even you push back, George, when 566 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: I when I brought up the fact that he'd be 567 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: perfect at USC, you said that that's just not an environment. 568 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: But is there a number? Is there a number that 569 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: would make that the environment for at USC? No, And 570 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: that's only and the only reason why I pushed back 571 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 1: on USC in particular because he had already been at USC, 572 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 1: did not have success at USC, didn't want to go 573 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: back to USC. So that's what I would saying. I 574 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: was just specifically talking USC. But justin Wilcox has been 575 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 1: at big time programs and he knows that you have 576 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: to be able to recruit, you have to be able 577 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 1: to keep coaches on staff, you have to be able 578 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: to pay people real money. So so you can see 579 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 1: him doing He's gonna lose some of this musical chairs 580 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: type deal. If like if USC was to take Peterson 581 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,879 Speaker 1: or or USC was to take Winningham, that Wilcox would 582 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: then be like the number one target for those two schools. Well, 583 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: I mean, he's not leaving Cow to go to Utah, 584 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: but he would he would take a he would consider, 585 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: like if he would consider a big step up job 586 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: where where he was like, Okay, this is my final job. 587 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 1: But the problem is is that he won't be up 588 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: I don't think for those top tier jobs because Col's 589 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: offense had been bad, so he's the defense is obviously good, 590 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: but he has to show that. Okay, now I can 591 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: put together a complete team even if they even if 592 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: they go eight and four, that'll be a win. I mean, 593 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: that's that. That's how Matt Campbell at Iowa State is 594 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: on everybody's radar. He's winning at a place that is 595 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:21,959 Speaker 1: hard to win at. Thinks not a well, think about 596 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: how weird what you just said is you just were 597 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 1: so able to easily dismiss like he's not gonna leave 598 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: cal for Utah. That would be that would be like 599 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: that would be like saying like, oh, Matt Campbell is 600 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: not gonna leave Iowa State for Oklahoma and that's not No, 601 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 1: that's not the same thing. But in the standings this year, 602 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 1: it is you talk could compete on hold on, hold on. 603 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: If Utah wins a national championship, George, if Utah wins 604 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: a national championship, we have to put respect on their name. 605 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: If you Talk goes to a college football playoff, we 606 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 1: have to put respect on their name as the class 607 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,839 Speaker 1: of the pack twelve. It would be you're gonna put 608 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: respect on No, you're gonna put respect on Cayle Whittingham's 609 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,399 Speaker 1: name because you just said it. They can't get four 610 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,840 Speaker 1: star recruits, barely get three star recruits, can't recruiting California nowhere, 611 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: So no, no sensible human being like Justin Wilcox is 612 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: going to leave cal who he's able to start recruiting now, 613 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,720 Speaker 1: he's recruiting better now and leave to go to Utah. 614 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: That is a disaster of That would be a nonsensical 615 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: move that I mean, like, no offense to Utah the 616 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 1: people that you taugh. But cal Whittingham and his staff 617 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 1: has developed these guys. They they find guys that fit 618 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: their system. And finding guy and consistently finding guys to 619 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: quote unquote fit your system, get them to come and 620 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: hit is more difficult than it is at at going 621 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: to a school where it is easy to get four 622 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: and five star recruits. Imagine what Cayl Whittingham could do 623 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 1: with with the kids at USC. Imagine what he could do. 624 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: He's doing this with dudes at Utah who are there's 625 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 1: gonna be a couple of guys who are first round 626 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: picks because they had talent and they were coached up 627 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: and developed. Now imagine coaching up and developing uh like better, 628 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: higher quality athletes overall, like your entire roster from Justin 629 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: flowah Sel and all those five circuits. Yeah, but so, 630 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: But here's what I'm saying is it's not impossible to 631 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: recruit to Salt Lake. Like at some point we're gonna 632 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: have to say, oh, winning him wants these players. He's 633 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: just I don't know if they've got the staff that 634 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: can get them. Because if you can get kids to 635 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,919 Speaker 1: Denver like Mel Tucker has been doing, then you can 636 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: get kids to Salt Lake City. And now they'll tell 637 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: you all, we're getting our kind of guys. But I 638 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: see the guys who turned you Saw down. They offer 639 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 1: those four star prospects just like anybody else, George, those 640 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: four star prospects just don't want to go up there. 641 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,440 Speaker 1: But will would a national championship change that? And I'm 642 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 1: just saying if somebody, if somebody comes, and if somebody says, hey, 643 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna pay you Jimbo Fisher money and Kyle Whittingham 644 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: leaves Utah, the fact that we're sitting here talking about 645 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 1: the fact that they couldn't even get Justin Wilcox to 646 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: leave cal is hilarious to me because we'd be talking 647 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: about a national champion or College Football Playoff participant Utah 648 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: not being able to lure a coach away who went 649 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: six and six at a school that doesn't even really 650 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,359 Speaker 1: have any resources to keep him around. And that's just 651 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: It's just all I'm saying is you're not wrong, and 652 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: that's what makes Utah the most unique situation in the country. Okay, okay, 653 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: I can I can I can hear that now? All right? 654 00:40:55,640 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: So is um geez dude, there's some any coaches there? 655 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 1: Um mail mail melt Tucker. Is he safe at five 656 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: and six? Absolutely not. He's not safe to come back 657 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: because he It's it's becoming very very, very very clear 658 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,240 Speaker 1: that he has the special sauce as a head coach, 659 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: and he is from Georgia. If I was. If I'm 660 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: a Colorado Buffalos fan right now, I'm I spend every 661 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: single day scared to death. The nice thing for Colorado, though, 662 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: is if somebody was to come and grab melt Tucker, 663 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 1: like if even if it let's say it was like 664 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: Georgia State or something that the head coaching job opened up, 665 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 1: and they're sort of on the up and up in 666 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: the Sun Belt out there, and let's say that they 667 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,399 Speaker 1: just wanted him to come back to Atlanta, and you know, 668 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: would he would he take that? If if if are 669 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: you did you say Georgia's State, I should come through 670 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,320 Speaker 1: the microphone and strangle you right now. I'm just saying 671 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 1: Georgia's State. Georgia States a grade school. But like if 672 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,359 Speaker 1: if if you had a school from from the SEC, 673 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 1: or if you had a school like Georgia State or 674 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: something like that that would bring him back home. If 675 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: you had something like that, I would be worried. Georgia Tech. 676 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 1: But like if if you had that, you would I 677 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: think that you would have to worry. The nice thing 678 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: for Colorado is he has given Darren Shiverini more responsibilities 679 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: and I think that that he would sort of be 680 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: no matter what happens with melt Tucker, you would have 681 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 1: Darren shiverin and to promote right away to be the 682 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: head coach. I don't think that you, but I I 683 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: if I'm Colorado, I would be worried. I think I'm 684 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 1: I see so much early positive returns for UM Colorado, 685 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: especially with the way that they're Honestly, Colorado is like 686 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: three or four plays away from being eight and three, 687 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 1: which is crazy, but they are. It's the god's honest truth. 688 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: They're like three or four plays away from being eight 689 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 1: and three in melt Tucker's first year as a head coach, 690 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: and they're getting guys to come out and recruits are excited. 691 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:07,479 Speaker 1: Um if I if I was and he is from 692 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: the Southeast, if one of those head coaching jobs opens 693 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: and and they think that he can because SEC teams 694 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 1: don't care about if they think someone can help them 695 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 1: right away, then they will go and get them. And 696 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: so um, I fully expect melt Tucker to be the 697 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: head coach at Colorado for you know, next year and 698 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 1: the year after and everything like that. But also also 699 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: I definitely believe that that's that is a trouble, uh 700 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 1: for for the PAC twelve to hold onto a coach 701 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 1: like that in a market like that. Will will they 702 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: have the resources to keep him if he keeps them 703 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: on the trajectory they're on right now. I don't see 704 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: Meil Tucker moving this year. I think he's a He's 705 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be a Willie Tagger, because everybody 706 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: sees how that ended up. If he gets Colorado, if 707 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: he stays at Colorado for another year or two and 708 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 1: they and to move on, he's not gonna move on 709 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: from it. Here's here's the truth. He's not gonna move 710 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: on from Colorado for a small stepping stone job. If 711 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: he were to be offered, you know, like if Florida 712 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 1: some reason opened up, if Georgia opened up, if Texas 713 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: opened up, you know, like a premier program opened up, 714 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 1: he would leave Colorado. However, but I don't think he's 715 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:32,359 Speaker 1: leaving for Mississippi State. He's not leaving for you know, 716 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 1: a Arkansas, a middling job that is essentially a lateral move. 717 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: He's not leaving for that. He's leaving when an upper tier, 718 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: echelon job comes available and he's the guy that's That's 719 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 1: when he'll move. Aside from that, he's not going anywhere, 720 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 1: um just because it took him so long to get 721 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 1: a head coaching job that he understands. Hold up, I'm 722 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 1: not gonna be the bounce around guy like, yes, yes, 723 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: I want my coin. But as long as particularly he's 724 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 1: got a if he's got a good quarterback, coming back 725 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 1: teams looking good, team like, yeah, nah, I'll wait till 726 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 1: this is the job I really want. Um, how about 727 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly at u c l A one A million 728 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:18,479 Speaker 1: percent safe? It's a process. I believe they're fully bought 729 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: into the fact that it's a process. I mean, the 730 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: results are gonna matter next year, and they're and they're 731 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: getting better there. They are getting better. You can actually 732 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: see the results, like you can see things working. Um, 733 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: And they do need to recruit a little bit better. 734 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: But we're getting to the point where everybody on the 735 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: West coast who is recruiting, well, their classes are all full, 736 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: so some of these kids have no choice but to 737 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: commit to u c l A. So, but it's honestly 738 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,399 Speaker 1: getting to that point where where like, really really good 739 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 1: kids are going to have u c l A to 740 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 1: choose and really not a whole lot of other places 741 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: to go, especially if they want to stay in the 742 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: in the south West, um, and not be in Tucson. 743 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 1: So you know that that's that's just kind of the 744 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 1: way the cookie. The cookie crumbles, And and I think 745 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: that because you see things getting better, could he be 746 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 1: on the hot seat a little bit next year? If 747 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,239 Speaker 1: things don't improve. Yeah, but I also don't see it 748 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,800 Speaker 1: that happening that way because you see incremental and improvements. 749 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 1: You see them building from the foundation up and so 750 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 1: um are those assistants what he needs to be able 751 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:29,319 Speaker 1: to get that done? That's probably my biggest question. But 752 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: now I think he's one safe. Yeah, I totally see 753 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:37,240 Speaker 1: you see l A going eight and four next season, 754 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: like they they they're non conference games are New Mexico State, 755 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 1: Hawaii and San Diego State. They should be able to 756 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 1: after a couple of years, you know, you know, like 757 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: you'll have some of these guys to be juniors, all 758 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 1: of this stuff, and hopefully he can fix Dorian Thompson 759 00:46:56,040 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 1: Robinson from making bone head scratching mistakes. Um uh. Now 760 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 1: on to to the Arizona Amstein's, which I have. I 761 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: totally forgot about them, the Arizona Amsden's. Is your boy 762 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 1: Kevin Sumlin safe because I don't. I don't think so. 763 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: And you had a great tweet because I brought up 764 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:25,240 Speaker 1: to you that it seems like he's sabotaging his season 765 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:29,480 Speaker 1: with this quarterback situation, and you had a a wonderful tweet. 766 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 1: You can tell that you can tell the people. I 767 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 1: just said that with fiveouts the way they are today. 768 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 1: If if I saw the opportunity to get like a J. 769 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 1: G went with get my cash now a type situation, 770 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: then maybe I'm not putting in my best effort either. 771 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: If you can sign a five year deal, work one 772 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 1: year and still get that five year money, what what 773 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,439 Speaker 1: are you doing? Why wouldn't you do that? Like I've 774 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 1: pay me, you know and so. But that's me and 775 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm I'm a terrible person. I'm I'm not a terrible person. 776 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,439 Speaker 1: I'm not a competitive person. It would not be worth 777 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: it for me to go through the grind of being 778 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,799 Speaker 1: a big time college football coach to have temporary success 779 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 1: only to do it all over again next year. Rather 780 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,240 Speaker 1: than just have someone hand me a check for twenty 781 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:23,760 Speaker 1: million dollars, I'll take the check for twenty million million 782 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 1: dollars and I'll go buy myself a life that makes 783 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 1: it feel like I want something. Um, you know and so. 784 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 1: I I don't think the University of Arizona has the 785 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: resources to be making any changes, especially after they just 786 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 1: had to pay out Rich rod Um. That being said, 787 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: this is one of the all time garbage coaching jobs 788 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 1: that has been done anywhere that I don't. That doesn't 789 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 1: mean that I think that it won't get better. I 790 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: think that it will get better. I think that they'll 791 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 1: have the personnel to do some positive things next year. 792 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:06,839 Speaker 1: But this year, specifically, they took an eight and four team, 793 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 1: made it four and eight, and made it ugly and 794 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 1: not fun to watch in the process. This is terrible. 795 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: At least Ritrod's teams were fun. This is not fun 796 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:21,960 Speaker 1: at all. This has been tortured to watch. Ah, that 797 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:26,240 Speaker 1: is that is an understatement. I totally agree. Um, Kevin 798 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 1: Sumlin is like he's It just shows that he hasn't 799 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 1: been much without Johnny Manzil. He hasn't been able to 800 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: recruit at Arizona, no pipeline from Texas. Nothing positive has 801 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 1: been going on, and and the future does not look brighter. Um, 802 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 1: the Athletic just dropped a really harsh article. And I 803 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:54,320 Speaker 1: mean the author are Alexander He's a you of a lum, 804 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 1: but he's like the Athletics Cleveland Browns writer. So everyone's like, 805 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: why is the Cleveland writer writing like a hit piece 806 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 1: on Kevin something? Well, it's because he's a U of 807 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: a alum and he sees what's going on down there, 808 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 1: and he's probably like home for Thanksgiving or something and 809 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,760 Speaker 1: used it as an excuse to write about the program. 810 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 1: But he went out to one of the same high 811 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 1: school games that I was at, um South Point Catholic, 812 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: which is about three miles away from University of Arizona's campus, 813 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,839 Speaker 1: where four star Lathan Ransom who was headed to Ohio State, 814 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,960 Speaker 1: five star by Jean Robinson who was headed to play 815 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: running back at Texas, and m Bruno Fena, whose dad 816 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,399 Speaker 1: John Fina, played at You of a h is an 817 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 1: offensive lineman that's headed to u C l A. And 818 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: Kevin Sumone has a kid on the team. His name 819 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: is Jackson someone, and he's a junior tight end. And 820 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 1: Kevin Sumlin doesn't even ever go over there. They got 821 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 1: four and five star recruits everywhere at a school that's 822 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: three miles from University of Arizona's campus where his son plays, 823 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 1: and he didn't recruit hard at that school, and so 824 00:50:56,480 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 1: like yeah, yep, And so that that caused a little 825 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:05,280 Speaker 1: bit of a stir down here that oh, some national 826 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 1: writer for the athlete it wasn't even a national writer 827 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: for the athletic gets somebody who had a you have 828 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 1: a education who was sick of what was happening at 829 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,760 Speaker 1: you of a who used the athletic platform to bash 830 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 1: Kevin Someone's recruiting practices, saying that he's got the swag copter, 831 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: but he won't even landed at the school that's three 832 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 1: miles away where his son is on the team, and 833 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 1: the head the head coach had some pretty brutal things 834 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 1: to say as well about just Arizona not putting any 835 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 1: effort with his kids, which makes it awkward again, Jackson, 836 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:37,000 Speaker 1: someone is on the team, but you know, I don't 837 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 1: know it. Just Mike Leach. Is Mike Leach safe at 838 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 1: Washington State? No, I think he should probably be that. 839 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: I think that would be wise for him to return. 840 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: He's in the perfect place when I bring this up 841 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 1: all the time, there is no better place on God's 842 00:51:56,520 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 1: green Earth for Mike Leach than Pulman Washington UM. But 843 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 1: his name keeps getting brought up every single time with 844 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 1: every single one of these jobs. The Arkansas thing, you know, 845 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,840 Speaker 1: offense is sexy like that. That's how Cliff Kingsbury failed 846 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 1: his way up to chain into being an offensive coordinator 847 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,399 Speaker 1: for USC for two weeks and then the head coach 848 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 1: of the Arizona Cardinals because he could score. And so 849 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: if you if you can put points on the board, 850 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,879 Speaker 1: the assumption is that you can at least figure out 851 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: how to put a staff together that might stop somebody someday. 852 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: So he's gonna his name is gonna be attached to 853 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: every single job. Um, I'm gonna say that he's back 854 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:40,320 Speaker 1: next year. UM, don't depend on that, but I would 855 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: say he will. He will recognize that he's in the 856 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 1: best place for him. He's getting a pretty penny already. 857 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:53,239 Speaker 1: Just do I think that, whether it's this year or 858 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: sometime soon, he's getting out of Poma. I think he 859 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,879 Speaker 1: likes it there and he likes coaching there. But at 860 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,359 Speaker 1: the same time he has to wonder what it's like 861 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 1: to coach. To be able to recruit better, he's got to. 862 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 1: I mean, his name is gonna be up for the 863 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 1: Florida State job, is gonna be up for the Arkansas job, 864 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 1: and probably a number of other jobs that come that 865 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 1: come open. So and with the with the way USC's 866 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 1: offense has looked at times under Graham Harrold, might they 867 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 1: even consider Mike Leech if they don't, you know, depending 868 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 1: on what happens and all of that. So yeah, so 869 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 1: I don't think that might might might Leech is safe 870 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 1: from being fired, but he's not safe from leaving. You 871 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,959 Speaker 1: don't keep flirting and then just keep going back back home. 872 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: If you keep flirting, one of these times, you're gonna 873 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: you're gonna tell the kids that you're that you're going 874 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 1: out for cigarettes and you're you're not gonna come back home. 875 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:55,160 Speaker 1: That's what's gonna happen at Washington State. How about Stanford? 876 00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: What do you think I he missed an opportunity. I 877 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: think that David Shaw. I mean you and I talked 878 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 1: about this all season long. I said it before the season. Yeah, 879 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 1: I think that David Shaw should because every year one 880 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 1: third of the NFL's jobs come open. I think that 881 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:20,399 Speaker 1: David Shaw should maybe take a look at doing something else. 882 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: I know he's a Stanford a lum. I know he's 883 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 1: had a ton of success there, and I know that 884 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 1: Stanford can actually stomach not winning because they did that 885 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: for a really, really long time. Um, I don't think 886 00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:40,040 Speaker 1: he's comfortable with not being one of the conference's best teams. 887 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 1: It sort of gives him a pulpit to equivocate from 888 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 1: you know, when Stanford is good, it gives David Shaw 889 00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: the platform to speak about the things that he wants 890 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 1: to see different and changed about college football, even though 891 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:54,839 Speaker 1: not a lot of it's going his way right now. 892 00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: Um but as a three and nine Stanford team or 893 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: something like that, you real, I think anyone's gonna care 894 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 1: what he has to say about anything. I don't so, 895 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 1: ye where would they turn to? I also don't know 896 00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 1: what they would do without him, dude, Maybe maybe Jim, 897 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 1: Maybe Jim Harball gets sick, Jim of losing Ohio State 898 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: and comes back. Yeah. I just there's anyway that Jim 899 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 1: Harball leaves Michigan at this point. Like he already put 900 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 1: his foot in his mouth. He already said there's you know, 901 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:32,359 Speaker 1: like read my lips, no new taxes. That was too 902 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:34,879 Speaker 1: So he can't leave at this point. If he leaves 903 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,840 Speaker 1: at this point, he has a jerk. He is a 904 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 1: He's a hundred percent jerk. Even if it is to 905 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 1: return to Stanford. That's a horrendous move. Um. Yeah, I 906 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 1: think that David Shaw missed an opportunity. He missed an 907 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:52,399 Speaker 1: opportunity to go to the NFL because Stanford's broken. I'm 908 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 1: telling you they are broken. This is not a situation 909 00:55:56,680 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 1: to where you know that something is going going to 910 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: get better quickly. The you know, he's kind of has 911 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 1: a head coach. I'm sorry, I kind of has a 912 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 1: starting quarterback. But this is I don't know, man, stan 913 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 1: Stanford just does not look great for the future. The 914 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:20,919 Speaker 1: good news is is that they have at least one 915 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 1: free win next year. They got what William and Mary, 916 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 1: then they play at Notre Dame. Well, and they play 917 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 1: at Notre Dame and then they play b y U 918 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:33,880 Speaker 1: in November. So I don't know, man, I I don't know, 919 00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 1: because um Sataki at b y you just got an 920 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,880 Speaker 1: extension even though the games at Palo Alto. I'm not 921 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 1: a leaver. I'm I'm not a believer in what's going 922 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 1: on at Stanford. I don't know if David Shaw can 923 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: fix it. And if he doesn't get it fixed, he has, 924 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 1: like you know what I say, strike when the iron 925 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,879 Speaker 1: is hot. If he doesn't get it fixed next year, 926 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,760 Speaker 1: he would have missed striking. He he would have missed 927 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 1: the tire ambul that hit himself in their knee. Um, 928 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,360 Speaker 1: even though he would have made twenty some million dollars 929 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:09,720 Speaker 1: in the process or thirty million dollars in the process. Um, 930 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:13,879 Speaker 1: now we got I guess the the the two most 931 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 1: controversial jobs right now. Weirdly, you got the Washington Huskies 932 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: Chris Peterson. There's been so many people screaming about Chris 933 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:26,400 Speaker 1: Peterson being fired and all of this. And it's one 934 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:30,920 Speaker 1: of those weird things because if you look at his 935 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: history and his career, he's obviously been a really you know, 936 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 1: it was very successful at Poisey State. But in the 937 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 1: Pact twelve, Washington has not played a good conference a 938 00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:49,080 Speaker 1: good nonconference schedule like pretty much his entire time there, 939 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:53,880 Speaker 1: Like they just have it. So I'm just sitting here 940 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 1: and their fans are saying, what are his signature winds? 941 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: Like he beat Oregon while they were bad. He doesn't 942 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 1: have a great record against Stanford. What he has a 943 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: losing record against Stanford. So fans are wondering, They're like, yo, 944 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: what is going on? Like, yes, you can be Eastern Washington, 945 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: Hawaii and b y U. But what happens when next 946 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 1: year when you when you gotta play Michigan, what what happens? Then? Well, 947 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 1: they were they were Oregon before Oregon. Uh, coming down 948 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 1: to Tempe with the top five team in the country, 949 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 1: undefeated and losing to a bad Arizona State team. So 950 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he's he's had some They obviously they 951 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: got beat up in the fiestabole Um by se Kwon Berkley. 952 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 1: They I'm starting to see it. I'm starting to see it. Um. 953 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure, though, I think that he deserves 954 00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: all the chances in the world because I remember what 955 00:58:55,200 --> 00:59:00,240 Speaker 1: Washington was like without him. I I don't know. I 956 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,800 Speaker 1: think you just it's time to bring the magnifying glass out, 957 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: but not to burn him to death like he's an aunt, 958 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 1: but to take a closer look. So I think that 959 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 1: I think that he should be under the magnifying glass 960 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:15,280 Speaker 1: next year to see what he does and how they 961 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 1: bounce back. Because one of the things that they're still 962 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 1: doing as well as anybody is getting people to the pros. 963 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this, George, but Vita 964 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,560 Speaker 1: Vea became the heaviest person in NFL history to score 965 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 1: a touchdown yesterday when he caught a touchdown from Jameis 966 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:35,520 Speaker 1: Winston at threety seven pounds. They're getting all these dudes 967 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 1: to the NFL um they stay in the National Conversation. 968 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 1: They recruit very very well, and the Pack twelve North 969 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 1: outside of Oregon is vulnerable next year, I think for 970 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:55,000 Speaker 1: and and there's gonna be a new quarterback at Oregon. 971 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 1: So if he can come out next year and he 972 00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:58,720 Speaker 1: can win the Pack twelve, then I think you're just 973 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 1: back to you Chris Peterson, lifetime coach of University of Washington. 974 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 1: But I do think he's knocked some of the shine 975 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 1: off of himself for the people at USC who had 976 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 1: wanted to possibly pluck him, uh to replace Clay Helton. 977 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 1: Which brings me to your next thing that you're going 978 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 1: to talk about. Yep, and I agree with you there 979 01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: that Chris Peterson isn't going anywhere this year. But he 980 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 1: also doesn't look good enough for sexy enough for USC 981 01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 1: fans to really really want him like that. But if 982 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:37,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't, if after Justin Herbert leaves, if they lose 983 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:42,400 Speaker 1: the Tyler Shug at an Oregon and they don't finish 984 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,400 Speaker 1: and they don't, you know, and they fined have another 985 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 1: three four lost season because they blamed it on youth. 986 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 1: They blamed it on a bunch of things. I think 987 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:56,120 Speaker 1: Jacob Easton may end up having to go back to school. Yeah, 988 01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 1: this is just yeah that now that could spell a 989 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 1: little bit of hot for him, but he won't be 990 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:07,040 Speaker 1: getting fired anytime soon. The last school up is the USC. 991 01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 1: The USC is there any way Clay Hilton's job is safe. 992 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean that I was running through different scenarios of 993 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 1: what could work, and I mean they could come out 994 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 1: and they can make a commitment to him, because that 995 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 1: was the biggest issue right now, because I expected them 996 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 1: to go eating for. They went eating for. I expected 997 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 1: them to beat Utah. They beat Utah. They fulfilled my 998 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:38,560 Speaker 1: expectations for this year. Um. The the issue right now 999 01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 1: is recruiting. It really is, because they've got young, talented 1000 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 1: players now, most of which will be back next year. 1001 01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: Could he turn around and make a run with those players? 1002 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:55,000 Speaker 1: I'd say that the fan base does not trust him 1003 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 1: to do that and want somebody else to come in 1004 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 1: and and get that done. They want Mike Bone to 1005 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 1: be in charge of that process. Um, and I get that. 1006 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:11,600 Speaker 1: I get that, But also it's USC. All these kids 1007 01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: that are basically like staging a mutiny by not committing 1008 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 1: to USC, but they actually want to go to USC. 1009 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,040 Speaker 1: If Mike Bone has to come out and say, hey, 1010 01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:24,000 Speaker 1: Clay Helton is coach for the next two years, no 1011 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 1: matter what happens. You know what those kids would do. 1012 01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:32,040 Speaker 1: They flipped. They flipped because then they then they realize, oh, 1013 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 1: we we tried to play the long game. We tried 1014 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 1: to exercise pressure and it didn't work because guys like 1015 01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:42,400 Speaker 1: Chris Steele and Brue McCoy they did commit elsewhere to 1016 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 1: Texas in Florida, and guess where they ended up back 1017 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: up a couple of months later. Usc All, these kids 1018 01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: want to be Trojans. They want to be Trojans. They 1019 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 1: just think Clay Hilton's gonna get fired. If it's clear 1020 01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 1: that he's not getting fired, they're gonna get some of 1021 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,400 Speaker 1: those kids. But is Clay Hilton the guy that you 1022 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:04,240 Speaker 1: want to make that commitment to. I've read all the 1023 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,960 Speaker 1: articles that say no, and I've listened to a couple 1024 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,240 Speaker 1: of people that say he's earned another shot, and I 1025 01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:13,640 Speaker 1: come down on the side of no. Hell no, you 1026 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 1: do not bring Clay Hilton back because another shot means 1027 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: one more year of every single thing he does wrong. 1028 01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 1: It is just should we fire him now? You don't 1029 01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 1: bring back somebody who's on a game to game basis, 1030 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:32,240 Speaker 1: you bring back someone that you would have grace for 1031 01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: because you believe that even in the mistakes they make, 1032 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 1: you're building towards something. It is not healthy for Clay 1033 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,920 Speaker 1: Helton to be the head coach at USC and if 1034 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 1: you have the resources to do it, you need to 1035 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 1: make that move yesterday, and the fact that they haven't 1036 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 1: yet makes me disagree, totally disagree. Clay Hilton is like 1037 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: a I tweeted this out. I say he's like a 1038 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:06,000 Speaker 1: testing on Survivor that that he's the one that he 1039 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 1: would win Survivor because every time they would try to 1040 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,760 Speaker 1: vote him out, he finding the immunity idol and then 1041 01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:15,080 Speaker 1: he'd win the last immunity challenge and then everybody would 1042 01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 1: have wanted him gone all season, but missed every opportunity 1043 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,240 Speaker 1: because they were like, oh, we we can get him 1044 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:22,560 Speaker 1: out later, and then it's too late and he's one 1045 01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:27,720 Speaker 1: a million dollars. That's Clay help because they if I 1046 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 1: know that they didn't have an athletic director after the 1047 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 1: Oregon game, but that was the time to to if 1048 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 1: you wanted him fire, that's when you were supposed to 1049 01:04:36,120 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 1: do it. But now he's won five out of his 1050 01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:43,600 Speaker 1: last six games. Keaton Slovis looks absolutely amazing. Even though T. J. 1051 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:46,920 Speaker 1: Wh Whoada was on the radio, Uh what was on 1052 01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:51,840 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio carrying the water for J. T. Daniels saying, 1053 01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 1: no matter what happened, no matter what Keaton Slovis does, JT. 1054 01:04:56,040 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 1: Danis is so much better. I'm like, are you drunk? Oh? 1055 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:08,160 Speaker 1: J T. Daniels. J T. Daniels belongs in Berkeley. Yeah, 1056 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if they want him. Um but but 1057 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:15,840 Speaker 1: um yeah, and and that and that. So that's the 1058 01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 1: first problem, and that Keaton Slovis may have saved his 1059 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 1: job because do you want to you clearly have a 1060 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 1: franchise college quarterback in Keaton slogas, now you want to 1061 01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 1: get rid of Clay Helton. I don't know if that's 1062 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,640 Speaker 1: a great move. And then also if you can't get 1063 01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:36,440 Speaker 1: Urban Meyer, because here is what here's what I have 1064 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 1: heard from two people that are in the know about 1065 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 1: things in the in the college world, particularly USC San Diego, 1066 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:55,200 Speaker 1: the Rams, like in the Good Old Boys Network of 1067 01:05:55,200 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 1: of Los Angeles. He said that the number for Urban 1068 01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 1: Meyer is John Gruten ten years, hundred million dollars. My lord, 1069 01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 1: that's what that's what he wants. He's like, that's the price, buddy, 1070 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:17,360 Speaker 1: if you want it, you better pony up. But Carol faults. 1071 01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: The new president is like, no urban Meyer, under no circumstances. 1072 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 1: She's the president. She's the highest ranking person sort of 1073 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 1: because USC has the money. People above her who named 1074 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:36,080 Speaker 1: you don't know, and those people have made it clear 1075 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:40,360 Speaker 1: if we if you're gonna try to block USC, we 1076 01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 1: will find a new president. So it's getting real tricky. 1077 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:51,240 Speaker 1: But USC is not even close to urban Meyer's number 1078 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 1: right now of ten years, hundred million dollars. They're they're 1079 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 1: they're probably close to the ten ten mill mark, but 1080 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 1: not ten years. And then also is James Franklin, who 1081 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:07,040 Speaker 1: they would be targeting next, even though he's a good coach, 1082 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 1: is he gonna move the needle like that? Because if 1083 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 1: you look at his record, everybody craps a hard ball, 1084 01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:20,720 Speaker 1: but James Franklin's record looks just like hard boss. I 1085 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:23,080 Speaker 1: don't I don't know, Ralph. I think USC has put 1086 01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 1: itself in a bad spot because it's weird. It's one 1087 01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 1: of the top jobs in the country, one of the 1088 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 1: top jobs in the country, but at the same time 1089 01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:34,480 Speaker 1: people aren't willing to leave where they are to go there. 1090 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:39,480 Speaker 1: It's we say that erban Meyer has all the leverage 1091 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,080 Speaker 1: in the entire world, all of it, which is the 1092 01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 1: exact place that you want to be in. He's fine 1093 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 1: not getting this job, and he'll be fine getting this job. 1094 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,880 Speaker 1: So I mean good for urban Meyer to be in 1095 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: this position. I guess I would caution USC against that move. 1096 01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 1: I don't think it's right to me. It's more of 1097 01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:06,360 Speaker 1: a culture fit, right urban Meyer is urban Meyer worked 1098 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 1: at Utah, and he worked at Florida, and he worked 1099 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 1: at Ohio State. Because he is this giant figure who 1100 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 1: can recruit, who can hire really good assistance. Um, I 1101 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:25,560 Speaker 1: don't know how he's going to fit in at southern California. 1102 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:27,760 Speaker 1: And I hate to make this like a political thing, 1103 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:31,800 Speaker 1: but like he is a like right of right wing dude, 1104 01:08:32,400 --> 01:08:39,920 Speaker 1: right like Candice Owen's loving Dennis Praeger loving Republican. Okay, 1105 01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 1: and I worked for Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan's the California 1106 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 1: But I just don't know. I don't know if USC 1107 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 1: is gonna want to bring somebody in who like is 1108 01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 1: favoriting every Candice Owens all black people are brainwashed tweets, 1109 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:04,639 Speaker 1: you know, I get. I'm starting to get this every 1110 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:06,439 Speaker 1: single day because I talked to a lot of parents 1111 01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,559 Speaker 1: a high school recruiting and stuff like that, and there 1112 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:10,800 Speaker 1: are some who were you know, most don't care anything 1113 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:13,040 Speaker 1: about politics. There are some that are getting to the 1114 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:15,920 Speaker 1: point where it's so divisive out there that that they 1115 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:19,719 Speaker 1: look at the stuff that coaches favorite and retweet as 1116 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:22,120 Speaker 1: to like whether or not I'm gonna put my son 1117 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:27,080 Speaker 1: in with a white coach who thinks that like black 1118 01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:30,960 Speaker 1: kids need to be mentally reconditioned away from the politics 1119 01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:33,680 Speaker 1: that their parents teach them. Like, No, I want my 1120 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 1: kids to be taught about football, right, I don't want 1121 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:41,240 Speaker 1: politics entering it. So we've entered this really really weird, 1122 01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:46,400 Speaker 1: weird time and again. I'm having these conversations with parents 1123 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:51,760 Speaker 1: regularly about the politics of coaches, whether some they think 1124 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:54,759 Speaker 1: some coaches are too liberal, or some cities are too liberal, 1125 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:57,640 Speaker 1: whether they think some coaches are too conservative where they 1126 01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 1: don't understand the experience of where they're they might be 1127 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 1: coming from. And I know that you traditionally really only 1128 01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 1: deal with your position, coaches, but I'm just having a 1129 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:11,800 Speaker 1: hard time imagining ten years, a hundred million dollars for 1130 01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:15,640 Speaker 1: a guy who has a background of scandal, whose politics 1131 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 1: might not necessarily fit the area, just to potentially win 1132 01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:24,720 Speaker 1: some football games when his brain might supposedly explode at 1133 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: any given point because of the health issues that he's had. 1134 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: I think they should just take the Urban Myers stuff 1135 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,439 Speaker 1: off the table. And it feels like back room they 1136 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:37,759 Speaker 1: kind of tried to, right, They tried to say there's 1137 01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 1: no way ever, but the demand is still there and 1138 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:45,200 Speaker 1: people seem to think that this will still happen. There 1139 01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 1: are guys out there who who could Matt Campbell could 1140 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:53,160 Speaker 1: be that guy. Matt Campbell is a dogged recruiter who 1141 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:57,280 Speaker 1: has turned Aims, Iowa into a destination for top recruits. 1142 01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:01,679 Speaker 1: Go get a guy like that, Go get the hot name, 1143 01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:04,920 Speaker 1: the young name, somebody who can be there for ten 1144 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:08,240 Speaker 1: years and not somebody who you just hope will be 1145 01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:12,400 Speaker 1: healthy and engaged enough and won't involve themselves in any 1146 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:15,120 Speaker 1: more scandals so that you can get back to where 1147 01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 1: you can compete with Washington and Oregon. Right, I don't know. 1148 01:11:21,360 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 1: I don't love the idea. I think they should get 1149 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 1: rid of Clay Helton absolutely, um And you're saying that 1150 01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:29,760 Speaker 1: they should keep Clay Helton because they're not going to 1151 01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 1: get urban Meyer this year. Is that what they should 1152 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:34,559 Speaker 1: keep Clay Helton is a negotiating tactic. Is that what 1153 01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 1: I'm hearing you saying, No, I'm saying, is that is 1154 01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:43,760 Speaker 1: that you've put yourself in a situation where it's hard 1155 01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 1: to get rid of him. Now he's won five, five 1156 01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:50,920 Speaker 1: or six, and if you can't get Urban Meyer. I mean, 1157 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:55,559 Speaker 1: I hear usc fans screaming, oh, anybody but but him, 1158 01:11:55,680 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 1: anybody but the what but Clay Helton? Okay? So it 1159 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,200 Speaker 1: I mean, do you really mean anybody? So do you 1160 01:12:02,240 --> 01:12:08,559 Speaker 1: want Kevin Kevin Sumlin? Uh uh, Willie, Willie Taggart's out 1161 01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 1: of out of work? Who is anybody? Because anybody's just 1162 01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:14,599 Speaker 1: not better than Clay Helton. There are a bunch of 1163 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:17,439 Speaker 1: coaches who may do a better job, but there's not 1164 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:20,679 Speaker 1: just anybody but help Like that's just pure at easy. 1165 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:24,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he hasn't achieved what you want him to achieve. 1166 01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:27,919 Speaker 1: But it's weird because he's put himself in a position. 1167 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 1: Like I said, he's a survivor contestant. He's like a cock. 1168 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 1: Actually I don't refer to hi man, I mean and 1169 01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 1: just a sense of he just won't go away like 1170 01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:42,880 Speaker 1: you will. He's not gonna make it easy to fire him. Okay, 1171 01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:46,640 Speaker 1: so we can get into the game's real quick now, Ralph, Um, 1172 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:50,920 Speaker 1: you had USC and U c l A fifty two 1173 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:53,599 Speaker 1: thirty five. I told you this game was gonna kill 1174 01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 1: the over and it did. I do Keaton Slover Stough 1175 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:02,839 Speaker 1: for four five hundred fifteen yards. You had four USC 1176 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:10,280 Speaker 1: receivers go over a hundred yards. Four you had Drake Um. Yeah, 1177 01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:14,880 Speaker 1: you had Drake London, I'm ross A Brown, Tyler Vons, 1178 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:19,479 Speaker 1: and Michael Pittman all over four all over a hundred yards. 1179 01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:21,519 Speaker 1: The only one that didn't score was I'm on Roight 1180 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:26,320 Speaker 1: st Brown. This was an utter beat down offensively, but 1181 01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:30,280 Speaker 1: on on the other end, uh USC's defense still gave 1182 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 1: up thirty five points and just a whole bunch of yards. 1183 01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 1: To you, I feel like this was one of the 1184 01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:44,720 Speaker 1: good DTR games. Um, I'm you know, so I thought 1185 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:48,559 Speaker 1: this was bad DTR. Actually this was. This was more 1186 01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 1: intermediate DTR. He finished with four total touchdowns and over 1187 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:56,720 Speaker 1: four hundred total yards. But it's like there was some 1188 01:13:56,840 --> 01:14:01,160 Speaker 1: throws missed, some bad is having to dig the entire 1189 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,720 Speaker 1: team out of a hole. Give him a chance, like 1190 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:07,519 Speaker 1: give up fifty good lord. This U c l A 1191 01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 1: defense is hot garbage this year, and I don't know 1192 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:13,639 Speaker 1: how they were able to do what they did against 1193 01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:16,679 Speaker 1: Arizona State. But maybe go back and watch that film 1194 01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:20,280 Speaker 1: because this is what do you what'sdtr supposed to do 1195 01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 1: if he's playing from behind, He's not a play from 1196 01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: behind quarterback, and he still managed to. I don't know, 1197 01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:33,439 Speaker 1: I felt encouraged by what I saw from him. Um, 1198 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:35,400 Speaker 1: Sometimes I feel like I just want to jump on 1199 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 1: his dad's train of tweeting at the tweeting at the 1200 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,720 Speaker 1: coaching staff. Uh, just like, you know, give his kid 1201 01:14:42,760 --> 01:14:46,400 Speaker 1: a chance to to get some stuff done. Um. But yeah, 1202 01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,559 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that I think that what 1203 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 1: Keen Slovis did in this game was really really special. Um. 1204 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:55,240 Speaker 1: Anybody who wants to bring up J. T. Daniel's name 1205 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:57,200 Speaker 1: from here on out is forever somebody I will no 1206 01:14:57,280 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 1: longer take seriously, we have four receiver us who all 1207 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:05,360 Speaker 1: have a hundred yards. That's almost as impressive as there 1208 01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:08,240 Speaker 1: was an old game where boomera size and spent one 1209 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 1: year with the years on the Cardinals and heat threw 1210 01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:13,760 Speaker 1: for five hundred plus yards um, way way back in 1211 01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:17,439 Speaker 1: the in the mid nineties, and no receiver had a 1212 01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:20,519 Speaker 1: hundred yards, which I think is the only thing cooler 1213 01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:25,000 Speaker 1: than getting four receivers at a hundred plus. And uh, 1214 01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:27,360 Speaker 1: I mean there's definitely a lot of shine on USC 1215 01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:30,960 Speaker 1: right now. Um, if you are a receiver out there 1216 01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:33,080 Speaker 1: and you see that you're gonna have two more years 1217 01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:34,680 Speaker 1: of Keaton Slovis, and you see that a lot of 1218 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:36,800 Speaker 1: these guys are probably gonna jump to the to the 1219 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:39,559 Speaker 1: league early, why not take that chance. I think that 1220 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:44,720 Speaker 1: Graham Harold, it's making Graham Harold look really good. Um, 1221 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just think that there's there's definitely 1222 01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:50,960 Speaker 1: a lot to be encouraged about offensively for this team 1223 01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:53,559 Speaker 1: right now, and making a move at head coach maybe 1224 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:56,600 Speaker 1: means that you lose some of that offensive shine and 1225 01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 1: so that can be a little bit scary as well. 1226 01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 1: But I think I've underestimated how much this game would 1227 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,120 Speaker 1: mean to the players who played in it, because you 1228 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:11,439 Speaker 1: were seeing guys who played quarterback at at USC in 1229 01:16:11,560 --> 01:16:15,080 Speaker 1: years past, Matt Barkley, whose record got broken for most 1230 01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:17,720 Speaker 1: yards in a game by a freshman, Matt Leiner. You know, 1231 01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:20,200 Speaker 1: all tweeting about how special they think Keaton Slovis is. 1232 01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 1: So I think this was a This ended up being 1233 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:23,800 Speaker 1: a really really big deal for USC to get to 1234 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:26,640 Speaker 1: eight wins after what was a tough start, and to 1235 01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:30,280 Speaker 1: and to have all this momentum. Everybody loves this offense. 1236 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 1: Everybody's talking about this quarterback and that's what it's about. 1237 01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:37,439 Speaker 1: That's Hollywood, that's USC. So um, that was good on them. 1238 01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:40,960 Speaker 1: I think that gosh, does u c l A still 1239 01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:43,760 Speaker 1: have a game after this? They do? Don't they like that? 1240 01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 1: The fact that their season is still going on that 1241 01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:53,679 Speaker 1: I just mercy ruled them, please. So so the things 1242 01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:56,280 Speaker 1: that stood out to be in this game where I 1243 01:16:56,360 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 1: think that Kyle Phillips U c l A Wide rievers 1244 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:02,480 Speaker 1: as a star to making he's gonna be a problem. 1245 01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:08,880 Speaker 1: He is the hunter renfro slash like like he is 1246 01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:14,000 Speaker 1: the Danny Amendola, you know, Cooper Cup. That's who Kyle 1247 01:17:14,040 --> 01:17:17,240 Speaker 1: Phillips is um. And the kid is gonna be a 1248 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 1: problem in the conference for as long as he's he's 1249 01:17:19,960 --> 01:17:22,960 Speaker 1: there before he goes to the NFL. UM and then 1250 01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:28,519 Speaker 1: also on USC's front, I mean, I don't know how 1251 01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:30,800 Speaker 1: you can knock slogans. There are people, Oh, he's got 1252 01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 1: such great, great wide receivers. Well, he also has to 1253 01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 1: throw the ball on time, on target recoverages because they're 1254 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:40,679 Speaker 1: trying to confuse him. And there his critics they always 1255 01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:46,080 Speaker 1: a turnover machine. Well, he's also a true freshman playing 1256 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 1: like put in an untenable situation, having he played pro 1257 01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:53,679 Speaker 1: style in college, and he's not really a turnover machine. 1258 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:58,280 Speaker 1: He's got nine interceptions twenty eight touchdowns, Like, come on, 1259 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:05,120 Speaker 1: man like people are absolutely outrageous with their expectations for 1260 01:18:05,439 --> 01:18:08,360 Speaker 1: some of these people in Keaton Slops is clearly a 1261 01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: fantastic player. Um, yeah, that that's insanity. But but the 1262 01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:17,760 Speaker 1: question is, after all these dudes go to NFL after 1263 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:23,120 Speaker 1: bonds in Um and Pittman are in the NFL next year, 1264 01:18:23,160 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 1: they still got Ama ra st Brown and Drake Jackson, 1265 01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:29,120 Speaker 1: so he'll still have some good wide receivers to throw too. Um, 1266 01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 1: you taught an Arizona round thirty five to seven, and 1267 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:38,040 Speaker 1: the Bowl Constrictor utes just just they get their arms, 1268 01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:40,800 Speaker 1: they get wrapped around you in the beginning of the game, 1269 01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 1: and they just squeezed the life out of every single team. 1270 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:47,839 Speaker 1: I mean, if you talk gets in the college football Playoff. 1271 01:18:48,280 --> 01:18:50,840 Speaker 1: I would not be surprised if they beat L. S U. 1272 01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:54,960 Speaker 1: But I would be surprised if they beat Clemson or 1273 01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:59,200 Speaker 1: Ohio State. However, I far be it from me to 1274 01:18:59,240 --> 01:19:02,639 Speaker 1: say that this team cannot do it. Like their defense 1275 01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:08,040 Speaker 1: is just strangling people. I mean, just I haven't seen 1276 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:11,200 Speaker 1: like this. Um. There was a really good article this 1277 01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:15,120 Speaker 1: week after UM I'll tweet it out about the top 1278 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 1: that this Utah defense is one of the top six 1279 01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:23,880 Speaker 1: in the pack twelve of all time, and I can't 1280 01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:27,720 Speaker 1: argue with it at this point. You got um, I 1281 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:34,400 Speaker 1: mean brand, you got Bradley and I you got um. Uh, 1282 01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:41,000 Speaker 1: the the corner Johnson, I mean this, this is Jalen Johnson. 1283 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:47,840 Speaker 1: You got you know, everybody on this team. Francis Bernard 1284 01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:53,559 Speaker 1: is doing a good job, Terrell Burgess, Vonte Davis, Julian Blackman. 1285 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:58,800 Speaker 1: This is a team full of just stay in your gap, 1286 01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:04,519 Speaker 1: do the right thing, be physical, play hard. I mean 1287 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:08,040 Speaker 1: if if every team in the conference played with the 1288 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:13,080 Speaker 1: intensity and the um discipline that that Utah played with, 1289 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 1: it would be insane. It would be insane. Yeah, there 1290 01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:23,320 Speaker 1: they Gosh, Arizona got crushed and you had to figure 1291 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:26,680 Speaker 1: that was gonna happen. Um, I I will. I want 1292 01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 1: to get this out of the way real quick. That 1293 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley for Heisman thing that Utah is pushing is 1294 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 1: embarrassing and it has to stop immediately. It's not even 1295 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:41,160 Speaker 1: like funny or cute. Tyler Huntley is having an incredible season, 1296 01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:47,720 Speaker 1: but his season is basically Alex Smith's sophomore year. It's 1297 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,720 Speaker 1: a good season of football where he's not turning the 1298 01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:53,240 Speaker 1: ball over, where he's being very efficient, but he's not 1299 01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:56,240 Speaker 1: even the best player on that offense, George Zack Mosses, 1300 01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 1: So why are we even doing us Utah supposedly as 1301 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:05,559 Speaker 1: two rivals if you believe their fans, B y U 1302 01:21:05,640 --> 01:21:07,880 Speaker 1: and A s U. You know how many touchdowns Tyler 1303 01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:12,200 Speaker 1: Huntley was responsible for in those two games combined, zero 1304 01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:15,840 Speaker 1: zero zero zero. So we need to get off this 1305 01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 1: whole Heisman thing. It's embarrassing. It's embarrassing that Yogi Roth 1306 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 1: was helping push that whole thing this week. He is 1307 01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:26,080 Speaker 1: not a Heisman candidate. He's not even the best player 1308 01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:28,080 Speaker 1: on this offense. We should just be able to enjoy 1309 01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:31,280 Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley for what he is, a very good quarterback, 1310 01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:35,600 Speaker 1: having a very good year running this offense to perfection. 1311 01:21:36,560 --> 01:21:39,320 Speaker 1: But this offensive line in Zach Moss are what make 1312 01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 1: this offense go. You saw that against the University of Arizona, 1313 01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:44,240 Speaker 1: he had over two yards rushing I think in the 1314 01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:46,599 Speaker 1: first three quarters. Didn't really even need to play him 1315 01:21:46,640 --> 01:21:50,559 Speaker 1: after that. Defensively, you know we I think I said 1316 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:52,840 Speaker 1: this and I think agreed out that this is a 1317 01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 1: national championship defensive line and the rest of the defense 1318 01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:58,920 Speaker 1: has come to play as well. The only reason Arizona 1319 01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:03,679 Speaker 1: even scored in this game is because Grant Cannell finally 1320 01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 1: got enough reps towards the end of the game to 1321 01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 1: try to figure out what to do against the you know, 1322 01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:12,120 Speaker 1: third string defenders that the Utes had thrown out there. 1323 01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 1: What Arizona is doing offensively is I mean you should 1324 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:22,200 Speaker 1: yeah on on. Like, I'm a very lititious society, and 1325 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:25,519 Speaker 1: I think I think that people sue people too much. 1326 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:27,720 Speaker 1: But I'd be okay if the entire fan base got 1327 01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,040 Speaker 1: together and student the coaching stat for the way that 1328 01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 1: they manage the quarterbacks. This year just a very very 1329 01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:37,839 Speaker 1: bad game. And it took it took Saturn sized balls 1330 01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:40,679 Speaker 1: for J. J. Taylor to declare for the NFL Draft 1331 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,960 Speaker 1: before having to go against this Utah defensive line, and 1332 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:46,680 Speaker 1: that did not do him any favors because he's the 1333 01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 1: only underclassman in the country who has declared, which means 1334 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:51,840 Speaker 1: all eyes were on him against Utah and he went 1335 01:22:51,840 --> 01:22:54,640 Speaker 1: out there and had like ten carries for thirty three yards. 1336 01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:58,719 Speaker 1: So just what And you want to talk about mercy 1337 01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:00,720 Speaker 1: ruling a team. I know they at a rivalry game 1338 01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:02,400 Speaker 1: coming up, and I know that they love to play 1339 01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 1: spoilers um for a s U, but they can't even 1340 01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 1: move the ball. They they better play the entire game 1341 01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:19,480 Speaker 1: against a s U they like, honestly they I'm speechless. 1342 01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:22,439 Speaker 1: I'm speechless to how they've run the team this year 1343 01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:26,400 Speaker 1: and run this team into the ground. Yep. And and 1344 01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 1: I thought that we had a big um discovery this 1345 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:33,439 Speaker 1: this week. So Zack Zack Moss ran for carries two 1346 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:37,559 Speaker 1: three yards, well over a thousand yards this year. Um. 1347 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,639 Speaker 1: I thought that Justin Herbert was kind of a shoe 1348 01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:43,720 Speaker 1: in for PAC twelve Player of the Year. I mean 1349 01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:48,800 Speaker 1: only because you had I mean there wasn't really anybody 1350 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 1: else to give it to. I mean, like like you 1351 01:23:51,520 --> 01:23:56,960 Speaker 1: had Justin Herbert, Tyler Huntley and Zack Zack Moss. But 1352 01:23:57,080 --> 01:24:01,200 Speaker 1: Zack Moss probably deserves more credit it But none of 1353 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:04,000 Speaker 1: those were kind of sexy picks this year. I didn't 1354 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:08,639 Speaker 1: feel like and but now after Oregon lost and Justin 1355 01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 1: Herbert didn't look well, it didn't look didn't play well. 1356 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:15,559 Speaker 1: You know, I think that Zack Moss is probably in 1357 01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:20,160 Speaker 1: the league for he should it shouldn't be Zack Moss. Obviously, 1358 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:22,280 Speaker 1: we'll see what they do against Colorado. But when's the 1359 01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:25,840 Speaker 1: last time Colorado stopped someone from running the ball? Oh? Yeah? 1360 01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:32,280 Speaker 1: Um Cal at Stanford, Chase Garbers was back in full effect. 1361 01:24:32,840 --> 01:24:35,679 Speaker 1: He led the team in rushing. He had a good 1362 01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 1: day passing the ball. Um, Stanford is broken, dude. Cal 1363 01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:46,760 Speaker 1: had trouble because they were down what seventeen seven, uh no, no, 1364 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:50,439 Speaker 1: seventeen ten in the when the fourth in the fourth quarter, 1365 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:53,640 Speaker 1: and then they were able to come back score a 1366 01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:58,160 Speaker 1: late touchdown on their Chase Garbers run. Yeah, you know 1367 01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 1: this is a team that is now after starting out 1368 01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:05,320 Speaker 1: four and oh, losing Chase Garbage for six weeks, going 1369 01:25:05,360 --> 01:25:09,360 Speaker 1: in the tank, getting them back and now they're Bowl eligible. 1370 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:13,680 Speaker 1: This is a one successful season, especially if they can 1371 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:15,640 Speaker 1: mess around and beat you c U C l A 1372 01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 1: this weekend in l A. They're gonna finish seven and five. 1373 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,439 Speaker 1: I think that every cow fan that if they knew 1374 01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,759 Speaker 1: that Chase Garbers would be out for six weeks and 1375 01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:31,120 Speaker 1: um and Monster would be that bad, that they would 1376 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 1: happily take seven and five. And I just want to 1377 01:25:33,680 --> 01:25:36,679 Speaker 1: shout out this game had two of the best catches 1378 01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:39,679 Speaker 1: that I've seen all year. For maybe the best catch, 1379 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:46,680 Speaker 1: uh in the interception from Jalen Hawkins at Yeah, I 1380 01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:49,880 Speaker 1: mean that that was just flat out of cool. Um 1381 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:52,120 Speaker 1: and then uh, and then obviously they have a really 1382 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 1: really special receiver in Travon Clark who made an amazing 1383 01:25:57,160 --> 01:26:00,559 Speaker 1: catch on the sideline. Um, do you think Van Clark 1384 01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:05,760 Speaker 1: pro Do you think he sticks around? I think I 1385 01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 1: think he sticks around. I don't know if he has 1386 01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:12,480 Speaker 1: enough buzz, but if he were at a bigger school, 1387 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:16,200 Speaker 1: he probably would, you know, if if his name were 1388 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 1: buzzing some But I don't think he has enough momentum 1389 01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:22,040 Speaker 1: to necessarily he would be risky. But he'd be the 1390 01:26:22,080 --> 01:26:23,720 Speaker 1: kind of guy that would go to the combine and 1391 01:26:23,760 --> 01:26:29,280 Speaker 1: test off the churts, like the vertical, the hands. Um. 1392 01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:31,280 Speaker 1: He's a special player, and I hope he comes back 1393 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,679 Speaker 1: because I'd really really like to see him one more 1394 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,479 Speaker 1: year with the healthy Garber's. Um, I think that he 1395 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,479 Speaker 1: could really be the guy next year as a as 1396 01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 1: as a receiver kind of maybe challenge you know, hodgens 1397 01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:45,400 Speaker 1: Or or or a monros st Brown for for you know, 1398 01:26:45,479 --> 01:26:49,200 Speaker 1: that role of the top receiver in the in the conference. Um. 1399 01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 1: But yeah, he looked really really good to me. Um. 1400 01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 1: He continues to look good to me. But I also 1401 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:56,760 Speaker 1: look at him and see somebody who like, that's the 1402 01:26:56,840 --> 01:26:59,000 Speaker 1: kind of guy the NFL would salivate over. And he 1403 01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:01,120 Speaker 1: already went to Juco route, so he's already kind of 1404 01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:04,000 Speaker 1: had the hard knocks type thing and maybe he'd be 1405 01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:07,280 Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe he'd risk it. So I don't know, Um, 1406 01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:08,800 Speaker 1: but those are two of the best catches that I've 1407 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:11,920 Speaker 1: seen all year. There was a time during this game 1408 01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:15,000 Speaker 1: when I thought that, you know, that that Stanford was 1409 01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 1: gonna get it done and that you know, it was 1410 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:20,559 Speaker 1: going to really make cal look like pretenders. But you know, 1411 01:27:20,800 --> 01:27:24,200 Speaker 1: they found a way to win the game. And um, 1412 01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 1: you know how long has it been. Has it been 1413 01:27:26,240 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 1: like ten years or something like that. Yeah, it's been 1414 01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:31,360 Speaker 1: like a nine or ten years since they've had to 1415 01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:35,960 Speaker 1: change over the that acts or whatever it is. Um 1416 01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:41,040 Speaker 1: that plaque Okay, but I I hate the way that 1417 01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:44,920 Speaker 1: they transferred the plaque over from from team to team. 1418 01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:46,880 Speaker 1: At the end of the game, they're just standing there 1419 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 1: facing each other like so the people who are standing 1420 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:53,000 Speaker 1: who have to switch it over, they don't even get 1421 01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:55,080 Speaker 1: a chance to watch the last five or six minutes 1422 01:27:55,080 --> 01:27:57,800 Speaker 1: of the game. They're just standing there, just staring at 1423 01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:00,320 Speaker 1: each other. I'm like, this could not be one of 1424 01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:06,160 Speaker 1: them words insanely terrible things like who wants that job? 1425 01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:08,840 Speaker 1: You get to hand it over, but you don't get 1426 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,960 Speaker 1: to watch the game. It was a really good finish 1427 01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:15,200 Speaker 1: they and and they're just standing there, just facing there. 1428 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:19,120 Speaker 1: They were they were standing there like the um, like 1429 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:25,599 Speaker 1: the like the Royal Police and uh that stand outside 1430 01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:28,960 Speaker 1: of Buckingham Palace and they don't move. That's what they 1431 01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:35,120 Speaker 1: look like. Um. Yeah, I don't know what's up with Stanford. 1432 01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:40,720 Speaker 1: They're still playing quarterback shuffle obviously, uh K J Costello's hurt. 1433 01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:44,720 Speaker 1: Davis Mills had a bad game against the takers from 1434 01:28:44,880 --> 01:28:49,960 Speaker 1: cal two interceptions. I mean, who's who's the Who's their 1435 01:28:50,040 --> 01:28:53,840 Speaker 1: quarterback is David's Mills the guy in the future. I mean, 1436 01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:57,840 Speaker 1: I don't know where who's the next running back? Cameron 1437 01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:01,559 Speaker 1: Scarlett's a senior. Who's the next guy? Is? Is it old? 1438 01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 1: Is it Austin Jones? Stanford's broken man. I'm I just 1439 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:11,840 Speaker 1: can't say enough about it. And Cal is headed in 1440 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:16,760 Speaker 1: the right direction, and Chase Garbers is getting better. That's 1441 01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,360 Speaker 1: the thing about it is that Cal, provided he can 1442 01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:24,479 Speaker 1: stay healthy because he's only a sophomore, next year, he 1443 01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:28,480 Speaker 1: will be significantly better. I don't know about Cal secondary 1444 01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:30,799 Speaker 1: because they're losing a bunch of guys to the NFL 1445 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 1: and graduation. But this is a team who is going 1446 01:29:34,560 --> 01:29:40,439 Speaker 1: to be dangerous. Um Oregon State Washington State. This game 1447 01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:47,320 Speaker 1: crushed the over hundred and seven points. Anthony Gordon broke 1448 01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:51,519 Speaker 1: the pack twelve touchdown record through for six hundred and 1449 01:29:51,600 --> 01:29:56,520 Speaker 1: six yards and six touchdowns. I gave everybody the recipe 1450 01:29:56,600 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 1: for stopping the offense, but nobody listened. Either that or 1451 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 1: Oregon State just can't do it. And this game came 1452 01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:09,320 Speaker 1: down to the end of the game and Oregon State 1453 01:30:09,360 --> 01:30:11,800 Speaker 1: scored twenty nine points in the fourth quarter to like 1454 01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:14,960 Speaker 1: rally back kind of, but then they gave up nineteen points. 1455 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 1: I just the officials were a big part of this game. Again, 1456 01:30:20,520 --> 01:30:24,440 Speaker 1: pass inference calls at the end of the game. Um 1457 01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:27,639 Speaker 1: Mike Leach did a great job of calling a run 1458 01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 1: play at the at the very last last minute. But 1459 01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:32,920 Speaker 1: I thought that this game was lost. I'm a big 1460 01:30:32,960 --> 01:30:35,960 Speaker 1: proponent of going forward on fourth down, ending the ball, 1461 01:30:36,439 --> 01:30:39,040 Speaker 1: ending the game with the ball in your hands, big 1462 01:30:39,080 --> 01:30:44,799 Speaker 1: proponent of that. However, Oregon State went forward on fourth 1463 01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:47,679 Speaker 1: and two about midfield at the end of this game. 1464 01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:51,840 Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with that. The problem with it was was 1465 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:54,880 Speaker 1: how they led up to that. They ran the ball. 1466 01:30:55,000 --> 01:30:59,559 Speaker 1: They ran three really basic running plays, and they didn't 1467 01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:03,160 Speaker 1: give themselves a chance to to win. They tried to 1468 01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:06,200 Speaker 1: make a play on fourth, fourth down. Don't try to 1469 01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:08,760 Speaker 1: wait for fourth down to make the play. That was 1470 01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:10,600 Speaker 1: my only problem. I thought that they lost it on 1471 01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:14,639 Speaker 1: the first three downs with the conservative running plays, trying 1472 01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:17,479 Speaker 1: to run out the clock, when in reality they should 1473 01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:20,320 Speaker 1: have been trying to get the first down. That's where 1474 01:31:20,320 --> 01:31:23,240 Speaker 1: I think I think the teams go go wrong. But 1475 01:31:23,320 --> 01:31:27,920 Speaker 1: this was an offensive explosion. You had over what eleven 1476 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:34,439 Speaker 1: almost twelve yards of total offense. This was insane. Ralph, Yeah, 1477 01:31:34,479 --> 01:31:37,519 Speaker 1: and I think it's weird the Oregon State didn't learn 1478 01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:41,559 Speaker 1: the lesson from Arizona State last week, which is when 1479 01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:44,880 Speaker 1: you are tearing them up in the fourth quarter, run 1480 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 1: your offense. Run your offense, don't worry about anything else, 1481 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:53,200 Speaker 1: don't get cute, don't try anything new. Do what's working. 1482 01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:58,080 Speaker 1: Arizona State was killing Oregon State in the fourth quarter 1483 01:31:58,160 --> 01:32:01,160 Speaker 1: last week and they run a toss play. It was 1484 01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:04,920 Speaker 1: Jade Daniels. Jade Daniels was completely dominating that game. They 1485 01:32:04,960 --> 01:32:07,639 Speaker 1: took the ball out of his hands at the end. 1486 01:32:08,560 --> 01:32:11,280 Speaker 1: Oregon State scored twenty nine in the fourth quarter of 1487 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:14,840 Speaker 1: this game, and then they try to get sort of 1488 01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:19,080 Speaker 1: conservative to take time off the clock at the end, 1489 01:32:19,080 --> 01:32:22,559 Speaker 1: and I didn't understand that at all. Um, they really 1490 01:32:22,560 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 1: should have won this game. I feel bad because they 1491 01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:29,840 Speaker 1: wasted just a fantastic effort from Jermar Jefferson. I've been 1492 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:32,200 Speaker 1: waiting for Jeremy Jefferson to get right all year long. 1493 01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:34,920 Speaker 1: And in this game, twenty one carries hundred thirty two 1494 01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:38,320 Speaker 1: yards and two touchdowns, three catches fifty two yards, two 1495 01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:43,280 Speaker 1: more touchdowns, and it's wasted, right, I mean, they lose. 1496 01:32:43,840 --> 01:32:46,160 Speaker 1: It probably takes them out of even being able to 1497 01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:48,680 Speaker 1: go to a bowl which they definitely yes, they were 1498 01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:51,519 Speaker 1: going to a bowl game if they won this game, 1499 01:32:51,880 --> 01:32:55,280 Speaker 1: because and then Washington State can then go beat Washington 1500 01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:58,559 Speaker 1: which is entirely possible, and then you got another bowl 1501 01:32:58,640 --> 01:33:02,200 Speaker 1: team or agust they score. Wandered an opportunity to go 1502 01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:04,920 Speaker 1: to a ball game, just squandered. Yeah. And and also 1503 01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:08,360 Speaker 1: at the same time, like put us in our same 1504 01:33:08,360 --> 01:33:10,360 Speaker 1: shoes and the same position that we were one year 1505 01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 1: ago at this time that we're talking about being disappointed 1506 01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:16,920 Speaker 1: in an Oregon State team to put up fifty three points, Um, 1507 01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:20,800 Speaker 1: what a difference of year makes. So I'm I'm proud 1508 01:33:20,840 --> 01:33:22,599 Speaker 1: of I'm proud of this team. This is an easy 1509 01:33:22,760 --> 01:33:26,160 Speaker 1: fun team to root for, UM, but they do not 1510 01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:29,160 Speaker 1: have a defense. They need to recruit better. They need 1511 01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:31,040 Speaker 1: to get some guys in there that can they can 1512 01:33:31,680 --> 01:33:36,040 Speaker 1: stop anybody, UM, because you know, you got the one 1513 01:33:36,080 --> 01:33:39,760 Speaker 1: good pass pressure right now in hamilcar Rochet, who is 1514 01:33:39,800 --> 01:33:44,000 Speaker 1: completely neutralized by a spread offense. So you know they 1515 01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:46,400 Speaker 1: weren't ever going to stop anybody. So the goal should 1516 01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:47,880 Speaker 1: be to have your offense on the field at the 1517 01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:49,960 Speaker 1: end of the game. And they change things up and 1518 01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 1: they really shouldn't have. And it's just amazing to me 1519 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:54,280 Speaker 1: that they didn't learn that lesson from a s U 1520 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:58,880 Speaker 1: last week that you just should stick with what's working. Oh, 1521 01:33:59,040 --> 01:34:07,000 Speaker 1: I totally agree. Agree, Um you got you also had 1522 01:34:07,040 --> 01:34:13,000 Speaker 1: this weekend, you had Washington and Colorado, two games left, 1523 01:34:13,280 --> 01:34:16,439 Speaker 1: Washington in Colorado. What was your take on this game? 1524 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:21,479 Speaker 1: Roph I don't know. I don't know. I didn't watch it. 1525 01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:26,320 Speaker 1: I caught highlights. I guess you would call them. There 1526 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:29,479 Speaker 1: weren't many. Um, this was this was embarrassing. Like this 1527 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:36,120 Speaker 1: was embarrassing. Um, Washington had every opportunity to go in 1528 01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:40,640 Speaker 1: there and dominate a team that hasn't been able to 1529 01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:45,559 Speaker 1: really play any defense all year and who didn't really 1530 01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:50,200 Speaker 1: even look good offensively in this game, and they lost. 1531 01:34:53,360 --> 01:34:56,839 Speaker 1: They were down, well, they were down thirteen nothing at halftime. 1532 01:34:58,640 --> 01:35:01,639 Speaker 1: You can't you can't do that. He can't not score 1533 01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:05,920 Speaker 1: in the first half against Colorado. Jacobison didn't look all 1534 01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:08,479 Speaker 1: that great. Um, It's not like he was out there 1535 01:35:08,479 --> 01:35:11,200 Speaker 1: turning the ball over a bunch, but he didn't look 1536 01:35:11,200 --> 01:35:12,960 Speaker 1: all that great. You know, I say, when was the 1537 01:35:13,040 --> 01:35:16,520 Speaker 1: last time that Colorado stopped anybody from running the ball? Obviously? 1538 01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:21,760 Speaker 1: You know, they did stop Washington to an extent um, 1539 01:35:21,800 --> 01:35:24,280 Speaker 1: but I also didn't really see much of a commitment 1540 01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:27,320 Speaker 1: to Honestly, it was just bad play calling. This is 1541 01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:32,400 Speaker 1: this is this is a poorly called game on Washington's part, 1542 01:35:32,439 --> 01:35:35,800 Speaker 1: and Colorado deserves credit for being who they are at 1543 01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:38,559 Speaker 1: home once again, which is a really really tough out 1544 01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:44,800 Speaker 1: um and uh. And now they have an opportunity to 1545 01:35:45,080 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 1: ruin things for the entire conference, ultimately probably cost themselves 1546 01:35:48,920 --> 01:35:51,400 Speaker 1: a few million dollars, but at least get to a 1547 01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:54,240 Speaker 1: bowl game by getting beating Utah. So you know, they 1548 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:58,400 Speaker 1: have the ultimate opportunity to play the villain and they'll 1549 01:35:58,439 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 1: be really really interesting to see how that goes. But 1550 01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:03,759 Speaker 1: I think a lot of credit goes to Alex Fontnoll 1551 01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:07,760 Speaker 1: for his hunter yard Russian game. And then obviously, you know, 1552 01:36:08,080 --> 01:36:12,680 Speaker 1: healthy with Visca Chenal is is something that makes Colorado 1553 01:36:13,680 --> 01:36:16,719 Speaker 1: pretty dangerous team. Yeah, this game had to do much 1554 01:36:16,760 --> 01:36:20,640 Speaker 1: more with the faults of Washington than the successes of Colorado, 1555 01:36:21,560 --> 01:36:24,720 Speaker 1: because it's not like like Colorado went up and put 1556 01:36:24,720 --> 01:36:29,639 Speaker 1: out some juggernaut of an offensive performance, and it's not 1557 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:32,760 Speaker 1: like Washington turned the ball over, they had one interception. 1558 01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:34,400 Speaker 1: It's not like they had a bunch of fumbles, a 1559 01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:37,519 Speaker 1: bunch of interceptions and then you just got behind and 1560 01:36:37,600 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 1: you couldn't fix it. That's not what happened. They did, Jake. 1561 01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:46,880 Speaker 1: They did do a couple of cool things in coverage. Um. 1562 01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:49,880 Speaker 1: They blitzed freshman safety Mark Perry a couple of times 1563 01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:54,040 Speaker 1: and he got two sacks. Um. And and Nate Landman, 1564 01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:56,400 Speaker 1: who has been a really, really good linebacker for them 1565 01:36:56,400 --> 01:37:00,000 Speaker 1: for years now, Um, you know he got an interception 1566 01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:05,040 Speaker 1: and this was but still just talent for talent, That's 1567 01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:08,360 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's the offensive failings. Washington fans have 1568 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:11,839 Speaker 1: been complaining about this all year. They've been upset about 1569 01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 1: They're about their team all year, about the obstacles coordinator. 1570 01:37:19,080 --> 01:37:23,519 Speaker 1: I think it's handler. Um. They have been upset about 1571 01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:27,599 Speaker 1: Chris Peterson, and the last couple of weeks are kind 1572 01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:30,800 Speaker 1: of justifying it because if they lose the Apple Cup 1573 01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:35,240 Speaker 1: and finished six and six, Ralph, that would be if 1574 01:37:35,280 --> 01:37:38,000 Speaker 1: they finished six and six, this would be the same 1575 01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:41,000 Speaker 1: team that everybody that I have been for the last 1576 01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:42,840 Speaker 1: three weeks saying, look, you have to put him in 1577 01:37:42,880 --> 01:37:44,719 Speaker 1: the middle to the bottom of the pack. Twelve rankings 1578 01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:48,879 Speaker 1: and everybody has been saying to me, new new news. George, 1579 01:37:48,960 --> 01:37:51,080 Speaker 1: this team is so talented. They just play in the 1580 01:37:51,120 --> 01:37:54,920 Speaker 1: pack twelve. Noll this this this team is, this team 1581 01:37:55,000 --> 01:37:58,000 Speaker 1: is is the third best team in the conference. George. 1582 01:37:58,000 --> 01:38:02,760 Speaker 1: You must listen my English English friends back going North 1583 01:38:02,760 --> 01:38:07,080 Speaker 1: English fans. Right, they are six and five. There's six 1584 01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:10,679 Speaker 1: and five, three and five in the conference. They lose 1585 01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:14,960 Speaker 1: the Apple Cup, they will probably be number ten in 1586 01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:20,240 Speaker 1: the Pactuel Power rankings. Probably. Um. They can't finish last 1587 01:38:20,240 --> 01:38:25,000 Speaker 1: because the Arizona is finishing last. Um. The last game 1588 01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:28,960 Speaker 1: up though, was the most surprising game of the day. Um. 1589 01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:33,559 Speaker 1: And I just have a statement. The first thing in 1590 01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:42,640 Speaker 1: my and my first statement is to Oregon fans. Oregon 1591 01:38:42,680 --> 01:38:48,120 Speaker 1: fans have are all my nerves right right now. I 1592 01:38:48,240 --> 01:38:52,120 Speaker 1: understand you're upset you lost the game. I know that 1593 01:38:52,560 --> 01:38:56,600 Speaker 1: you are upset that Justin Herbert didn't play well, particularly 1594 01:38:56,640 --> 01:38:58,880 Speaker 1: in the first half, well the first three quarters, three 1595 01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:03,360 Speaker 1: and a half quarters. I understand that you had playoff 1596 01:39:03,439 --> 01:39:07,360 Speaker 1: hopes and dreams and they were dashed. I get it. 1597 01:39:09,360 --> 01:39:12,760 Speaker 1: But we gotta stop with the oh, we're gonna boycott 1598 01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 1: the Civil War, like stop being idiots. It's a football 1599 01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 1: game your team lost, It hurts, it sucks. I mean 1600 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:24,400 Speaker 1: I even changed my shirt at halftime to bring some 1601 01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:27,599 Speaker 1: good to bring some good luck, because it's only crazy 1602 01:39:27,640 --> 01:39:30,840 Speaker 1: if it doesn't work. And it didn't work. I know 1603 01:39:30,840 --> 01:39:32,759 Speaker 1: what it's like to have your heart broken and crushed 1604 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:35,439 Speaker 1: when when when you're when you believe that you should 1605 01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:38,640 Speaker 1: win a football game and your team disappoint you. I 1606 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:45,639 Speaker 1: get it. But let's stop with the nonsense. If someone 1607 01:39:45,720 --> 01:39:47,840 Speaker 1: had told you that at the beginning of the year 1608 01:39:48,680 --> 01:39:53,800 Speaker 1: that you could finish ten and two, win the Pac 1609 01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:57,840 Speaker 1: twelve Championship and go to the Rolls Bowl, would you 1610 01:39:57,920 --> 01:40:00,880 Speaker 1: have taken that? Oh, and you beat Washing, would you 1611 01:40:00,920 --> 01:40:04,720 Speaker 1: have taken and you talk, would you have taken that? Yes, 1612 01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:07,639 Speaker 1: you would have taken it. So you're saying you're saying 1613 01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:09,920 Speaker 1: the Troy Die thing. Troy Die said, Hey, I lost 1614 01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:13,680 Speaker 1: seven in a row my freshman year. This is progress. 1615 01:40:14,120 --> 01:40:16,400 Speaker 1: You're saying that that that's something that people should be 1616 01:40:16,400 --> 01:40:20,439 Speaker 1: taken into consideration. Yes, that that okay, Like, do you 1617 01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:24,360 Speaker 1: realize that two years ago Oregon was on there what 1618 01:40:24,400 --> 01:40:27,519 Speaker 1: their third heck well, when Mario Christo Ball ended up 1619 01:40:27,520 --> 01:40:31,320 Speaker 1: with the job after Willie Tagger left on their third 1620 01:40:31,360 --> 01:40:35,160 Speaker 1: head coach trying to decide between Christo ball Levitt or 1621 01:40:35,200 --> 01:40:39,599 Speaker 1: bring somebody else in. People were questioned, oh, is Oregon 1622 01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:43,479 Speaker 1: a stepping stone job like? Stop it? Man like, stop it. Yes, 1623 01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:46,120 Speaker 1: it sucks the team lost, but they're too old. Bench 1624 01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:50,280 Speaker 1: Herbert fire all the coaches, dude like settled down like 1625 01:40:50,360 --> 01:40:52,760 Speaker 1: stuff that there are some things that do need to 1626 01:40:52,840 --> 01:40:57,000 Speaker 1: get fixed, but let's just relax. Your team was number 1627 01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,960 Speaker 1: six in the playoffs at the end of the season, 1628 01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:04,679 Speaker 1: lost the game that they should not have lost. Georgia 1629 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:10,640 Speaker 1: lost to freaking South Carolina. Are we firing Kirby Smart? No, 1630 01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:14,960 Speaker 1: man like, chill out like it was a terrible, terrible loss. 1631 01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:19,240 Speaker 1: Should not have lost the game. Boycott the Civil War, 1632 01:41:19,360 --> 01:41:21,160 Speaker 1: Get the hell out of here. Go be a fan 1633 01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:23,600 Speaker 1: of somebody else. If you're if you're gonna boycott a 1634 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:26,840 Speaker 1: game because you're because you're nine win team, because you're 1635 01:41:26,920 --> 01:41:29,840 Speaker 1: nine and two team lost the game, boycott the game. 1636 01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:32,799 Speaker 1: How about being damn fan? Show up and cheer extra 1637 01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:35,160 Speaker 1: loud the way the way your team can have an 1638 01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:38,200 Speaker 1: advantage in the Civil War. I love Oregon fans, but 1639 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:41,120 Speaker 1: there are sometimes that it's just like and it's and 1640 01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:43,400 Speaker 1: it's not just Oregon fans, it's college football fans in 1641 01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:47,840 Speaker 1: general on some absolute nonsense route. I I just can't 1642 01:41:47,880 --> 01:41:52,519 Speaker 1: take it. It's frustrating and like, oh and oh, I'm 1643 01:41:52,600 --> 01:41:57,360 Speaker 1: happy to see Herbert go. Really really I believe Tyler 1644 01:41:57,400 --> 01:42:00,400 Speaker 1: Shug is a good quarterback. But but but you want 1645 01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:04,000 Speaker 1: to see a a top ten NFL pick leave, You're 1646 01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:07,840 Speaker 1: you're just like, oh, yeah, yeah, get get rid of him. Okay, 1647 01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:11,240 Speaker 1: So for the for the unknown, all right, don't don't 1648 01:42:11,280 --> 01:42:15,680 Speaker 1: be an idiot. Yeah again, forty seven touchdowns, nine interceptions 1649 01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:20,040 Speaker 1: over his last twenty one games. He's he's he's been excellent. 1650 01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:24,040 Speaker 1: Um this game notwithstanding which ps, if you look at 1651 01:42:24,040 --> 01:42:30,320 Speaker 1: the final stats, four yards, two touchdowns, not terrible, right, 1652 01:42:30,400 --> 01:42:33,000 Speaker 1: I mean he figured it out a little bit. They 1653 01:42:33,680 --> 01:42:38,000 Speaker 1: it seemed to me that they were missing something. Um uh. 1654 01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:40,880 Speaker 1: Jalen Red was he out? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, he got 1655 01:42:42,200 --> 01:42:45,840 Speaker 1: hurt in the Arizona game. He he had really really 1656 01:42:45,920 --> 01:42:49,519 Speaker 1: hurt ribs, like he had an ab donald injury. Yeah, 1657 01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:51,960 Speaker 1: so yeah, you you had some. It was very clear 1658 01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:53,559 Speaker 1: from just being out there on the field during the 1659 01:42:53,600 --> 01:42:56,120 Speaker 1: game that that there were there was some chemistry and 1660 01:42:56,120 --> 01:43:00,320 Speaker 1: receiving issues. Ke was hurt too, he broke his armed 1661 01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:03,240 Speaker 1: last game. You and I have known each other for 1662 01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:05,080 Speaker 1: probably over a you have been doing this podcast for 1663 01:43:05,120 --> 01:43:07,200 Speaker 1: a few months. But what's something you always hear me 1664 01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:10,240 Speaker 1: say is eventually that Oregon is going to find out 1665 01:43:10,240 --> 01:43:14,040 Speaker 1: that Johnny Johnson is a screen guy, right like that 1666 01:43:14,439 --> 01:43:16,960 Speaker 1: it's some that he's not a downfield guy. As much 1667 01:43:16,960 --> 01:43:18,759 Speaker 1: as you want to air it out to him. Eventually 1668 01:43:18,840 --> 01:43:20,760 Speaker 1: you're going to find out that if you give him 1669 01:43:20,760 --> 01:43:22,280 Speaker 1: the ball just a couple of yards from the line 1670 01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:24,479 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, he can do some special things. And lo 1671 01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:28,800 Speaker 1: and behold, look what happened. He went off two yards 1672 01:43:28,800 --> 01:43:30,719 Speaker 1: receiving and a lot of that was after the catch, 1673 01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:35,160 Speaker 1: and so, UM, I don't know. I think that there 1674 01:43:35,160 --> 01:43:38,400 Speaker 1: were definitely some issues here. Um. Part of it was 1675 01:43:38,560 --> 01:43:41,519 Speaker 1: a s U schemed really well. Part of it was 1676 01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:45,439 Speaker 1: Jack Jones, who had probably the dumbest penalty of all time, 1677 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:50,200 Speaker 1: hiring from the sidelines, which was which I mean, there's 1678 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:51,800 Speaker 1: the same thing a s U fans are like, please 1679 01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:55,040 Speaker 1: kick him off the team at halftime, please cut him, 1680 01:43:55,120 --> 01:43:56,720 Speaker 1: And then he spent All he did was spend the 1681 01:43:56,800 --> 01:44:01,040 Speaker 1: entire second half baiting Justin Herbert and eventually we're you know, 1682 01:44:01,080 --> 01:44:03,360 Speaker 1: he got an interception that set up what was probably 1683 01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:08,559 Speaker 1: the touchdown that that that that made the comeback fairly improbable. Um. 1684 01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:12,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't see Honestly, I didn't see 1685 01:44:12,760 --> 01:44:15,719 Speaker 1: a bad Oregon team. I saw a team that made 1686 01:44:15,720 --> 01:44:19,920 Speaker 1: a few questionable coaching decisions. Um, but this team was 1687 01:44:20,120 --> 01:44:23,320 Speaker 1: blowing up Arizona State at the last image, I mean 1688 01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:27,280 Speaker 1: c J. Verdell. There was a point in this game 1689 01:44:27,320 --> 01:44:29,439 Speaker 1: where it was like, how many times can a s 1690 01:44:29,560 --> 01:44:32,960 Speaker 1: use one deep safety that they were playing be the 1691 01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:36,479 Speaker 1: one to bring down the back? If if c J. 1692 01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:40,120 Speaker 1: Verdell was a guy that made cuts, uh, then you 1693 01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:43,639 Speaker 1: know he probably has three four touchdowns in the first half. Dude, 1694 01:44:43,800 --> 01:44:48,200 Speaker 1: they you you had Travis Yeah, you you had Travis 1695 01:44:48,280 --> 01:44:51,080 Speaker 1: diet average in eleven yards to carry c J. Verdella 1696 01:44:51,120 --> 01:44:55,679 Speaker 1: averaging almost six he uh bble leakyo seven and a half. 1697 01:44:55,960 --> 01:44:58,160 Speaker 1: Even though it's only on two carries. You're just like, 1698 01:44:58,400 --> 01:45:01,479 Speaker 1: run the damn football, man, and run the football. I 1699 01:45:01,760 --> 01:45:05,880 Speaker 1: could not understand, like just run them over, Like just 1700 01:45:06,160 --> 01:45:09,040 Speaker 1: run them over it is you have the offensive line 1701 01:45:09,080 --> 01:45:11,600 Speaker 1: to do it, and then play action and throw it 1702 01:45:11,680 --> 01:45:15,360 Speaker 1: over their their head. The math was simple, yep. And 1703 01:45:15,400 --> 01:45:18,040 Speaker 1: I think that the issue is that when teams who 1704 01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:21,439 Speaker 1: don't get down very often feel like they should be winning, 1705 01:45:22,120 --> 01:45:24,680 Speaker 1: they get away from their game plan and they get 1706 01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:28,400 Speaker 1: a little skittish. They were making. I mean, Arizona State 1707 01:45:28,439 --> 01:45:32,040 Speaker 1: had a masterful game plan defensively. Um, it's like, all right, well, 1708 01:45:32,040 --> 01:45:34,080 Speaker 1: if you're gonna blow us up running the ball, we're 1709 01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:38,320 Speaker 1: not going to overload the box. We're just gonna let you, 1710 01:45:38,320 --> 01:45:39,800 Speaker 1: you know. And it helped that they were winning at 1711 01:45:39,800 --> 01:45:42,280 Speaker 1: the time. But we're gonna we're gonna let you think 1712 01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:44,840 Speaker 1: that you need to pass when you don't, and that 1713 01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:48,160 Speaker 1: and and that was you know, honestly, it just played 1714 01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:50,400 Speaker 1: right in the Arizona State's hands. And then it's not 1715 01:45:50,439 --> 01:45:53,040 Speaker 1: like Arizona State was calling the best game either. They 1716 01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:55,560 Speaker 1: probably should have scored three, maybe four touchdowns in that 1717 01:45:55,680 --> 01:45:58,519 Speaker 1: first half. They scored one touchdown in that first half. 1718 01:45:58,600 --> 01:46:01,520 Speaker 1: I thought that was a credit it to the Oregon defense. 1719 01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:03,720 Speaker 1: But I want to give a lot of credit to 1720 01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:07,360 Speaker 1: the Arizona State offense. Though they did a great job 1721 01:46:07,400 --> 01:46:12,680 Speaker 1: of scheming against Oregon. They ran them. Uh, they did 1722 01:46:12,720 --> 01:46:15,680 Speaker 1: a lot of half rolls, They made a lot of 1723 01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:19,080 Speaker 1: early adjustments that Oregon responded to in the second half, 1724 01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:22,040 Speaker 1: but they just kept them off balance, got the ball 1725 01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:27,120 Speaker 1: out out of Jalen um uh Daniel's hands early and 1726 01:46:27,200 --> 01:46:29,519 Speaker 1: quick so they could get him in the rhythm and 1727 01:46:29,600 --> 01:46:31,839 Speaker 1: Oregon was not prepared for that. They did a wonderful 1728 01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:33,799 Speaker 1: job with with that. They deserve a lot of credit. 1729 01:46:33,840 --> 01:46:37,920 Speaker 1: They outschemed Oregon and then they got down and they 1730 01:46:37,960 --> 01:46:41,960 Speaker 1: could not respond. And then when it came time to respond, 1731 01:46:42,280 --> 01:46:45,080 Speaker 1: Jade Daniels, with the ice water in his veins, made 1732 01:46:45,160 --> 01:46:48,439 Speaker 1: perfect throws. He did not overthrow wide receivers. If he 1733 01:46:48,479 --> 01:46:51,160 Speaker 1: had underthrown either of those balls, they get broken up 1734 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:55,519 Speaker 1: and it's just a totally different ball ball game. Arizona 1735 01:46:55,560 --> 01:46:59,439 Speaker 1: State would probably lose, and so but they deserve a 1736 01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:04,280 Speaker 1: lot of credit. How good can he be, George, Oh dude, 1737 01:47:04,320 --> 01:47:08,880 Speaker 1: he as of right now, his trajectory says that he's 1738 01:47:08,880 --> 01:47:11,760 Speaker 1: going to be an NFL first round quarterback. I mean, 1739 01:47:11,800 --> 01:47:15,040 Speaker 1: he is fantastic. He I think he's going to be 1740 01:47:15,040 --> 01:47:18,479 Speaker 1: better than any quarterback in the Pack twelve right now 1741 01:47:19,080 --> 01:47:21,320 Speaker 1: by by the time his junior year in att includes Herbert. 1742 01:47:21,800 --> 01:47:25,639 Speaker 1: He looks that damn good. I'm I'm so blown away 1743 01:47:25,640 --> 01:47:28,280 Speaker 1: by just his composure. So I followed him around with 1744 01:47:28,320 --> 01:47:31,559 Speaker 1: a camera before the game. Um, he just kind of 1745 01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:37,400 Speaker 1: stands off by himself and just smiling about what. You know, 1746 01:47:37,479 --> 01:47:40,559 Speaker 1: he's not, He's he engages with his teammates when they 1747 01:47:40,560 --> 01:47:43,400 Speaker 1: come over, but he's just kind of like waiting for 1748 01:47:43,439 --> 01:47:47,640 Speaker 1: the game to start, looking not board, not restless, but 1749 01:47:47,800 --> 01:47:52,280 Speaker 1: just like content, just content to be there. And did 1750 01:47:52,320 --> 01:47:55,200 Speaker 1: you see his reaction when he threw that that touchdown 1751 01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:59,080 Speaker 1: Pastor Brandon a yukon third sixteen where he just kind 1752 01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:01,759 Speaker 1: of looked to this eyeline, pointed his arm and smiled. 1753 01:48:03,320 --> 01:48:07,200 Speaker 1: That was the most low key because I mean, they 1754 01:48:06,680 --> 01:48:11,080 Speaker 1: they they knocked Oregon out of college football playoff and 1755 01:48:11,120 --> 01:48:15,400 Speaker 1: their true freshman quarterback his celebration was just a point 1756 01:48:15,439 --> 01:48:21,520 Speaker 1: to his arm and smile, Like I just this kid's 1757 01:48:21,800 --> 01:48:25,639 Speaker 1: composition and temperament are not something that I'm I'm used 1758 01:48:25,640 --> 01:48:28,720 Speaker 1: to seeing because for a long time, the best quarterbacks 1759 01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:32,639 Speaker 1: in this conference have been sort of your traditional like 1760 01:48:33,439 --> 01:48:37,840 Speaker 1: super big arm but we'll get rattled by the pass rush, 1761 01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:41,479 Speaker 1: you know type players, which is most quarterbacks, right, and 1762 01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:44,960 Speaker 1: he just some about this kid is we we keep 1763 01:48:44,960 --> 01:48:48,720 Speaker 1: calling him, you know, an offensive sociopath out here just 1764 01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:52,400 Speaker 1: like there is no but that that implies that he's 1765 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:55,600 Speaker 1: like dead inside. He's not dead inside. He's just happy. 1766 01:48:55,800 --> 01:48:58,960 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I think that I I think 1767 01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:01,120 Speaker 1: that he's gonna be special for a long time. Oregon 1768 01:49:01,160 --> 01:49:03,240 Speaker 1: should have won this game. There's not really in excuses 1769 01:49:03,320 --> 01:49:06,240 Speaker 1: to not have have come down here and beat a 1770 01:49:06,280 --> 01:49:09,439 Speaker 1: team that just lost the Oregon State um. But at 1771 01:49:09,479 --> 01:49:11,360 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year, I thought that Oregon would 1772 01:49:11,360 --> 01:49:14,280 Speaker 1: be nine and three and not playing in the conference 1773 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:16,599 Speaker 1: championship game. So if they have a chance to go 1774 01:49:16,640 --> 01:49:20,800 Speaker 1: eleven and two, that's far exceeds my expectations um for 1775 01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:24,120 Speaker 1: for this team. And I think that the disappointment of 1776 01:49:24,160 --> 01:49:26,080 Speaker 1: not being able to play for the College Football Playoff 1777 01:49:26,120 --> 01:49:28,839 Speaker 1: is gonna sting.
