I'm Mike Calvary's joined as always by 14 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: Mike Ainello. We're going to really get into the nitty 15 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: gritty because this G five sleep was a little difficult 16 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: to pick from this week a lot of FCS matchups, 17 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 1: but luckily we left no stone unturned, so that means 18 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: we both are gonna have best bets. We're gonna hit 19 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: you up with our round robin G five high five, 20 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: give me five picks to put together in any way, 21 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: shape or form uc fit and then of course our 22 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: underdog moneyline parlayd end the episode. But it wouldn't be 23 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 1: a Group of five Deep Dive without our G five 24 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: Heroes of the Week. So I'll start with you, Ianello, 25 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:38,759 Speaker 1: who earned the Medal of Honor the Distinction of Honor 26 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: for week one at the Group of five level. 27 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like this is obvious and we 28 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: haven't discussed it. I hope we have the same one 29 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 3: I went. I went sarcastic with my pick last week. 30 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 3: I'll go januine this week. It has to be TJ Finley, right, 31 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: I mean, you were hyping up Malie Hornsby all off season. 32 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 3: I believe I announced him as the starter on the podcast. 33 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: I guess my sources were wrong, but he absolutely balled out. 34 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 3: They'd beat Baylor forty two to thirty one. You called 35 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 3: it on the over you were on that early in 36 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 3: the summer. That obviously hit easily, but I certainly don't 37 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 3: think you thought they would hit this way. You know, 38 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 3: two hundred ninety eight yards three touchdowns passing, added a 39 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 3: touchdown rushing. He had seven completions of twenty yards or more, 40 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: just slinging it down the field. So TJ. Finley, welcome 41 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 3: to the G five. You are officially my G five 42 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 3: Hero of the Week. 43 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: Also shout out to Joey Hilbert, their wide receiver transferred 44 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: from Wazoo to Utah Tech, which was formerly Dixie State. 45 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's all made up fantasy lands and college 46 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: names there in Utah, but he comes in immediately looks 47 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: like their number one wide receiver, which gives even more 48 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: of a ceiling to Ashton Hawkins, their slot receiver. So 49 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: in terms of their skill positions, I was always bullish 50 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: on it. The offensive line actually looked good against the 51 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: Power five opponent, So it's going to be really interesting 52 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: to see that Texas State offense and if they can 53 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: make a real run at it in the Sunbelt, maybe 54 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: gets a Bowl eligibility. This is like one of those 55 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: swing games that change their entire complexion of their season 56 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 1: in one game. I'll go quick on my G five hero. 57 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: If you watch God Van Peltz Late Night Bad Beats. 58 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: This was featured prominently Jaquez Donut Evans the DN for 59 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: Western Kentucky. To give you the cliff notes on this one, 60 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: the Hilltoppers were up thirty four to twenty four in 61 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: the final minutes, looked like they were not going to 62 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: cover that two touchdown spread. Here comes Donut off the edge, 63 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: sacks the quarterback basically face to face, and just rips 64 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: the ball out of his hands all in one motion, 65 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: runs in for a twenty seven yard touchdown, and the 66 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: Toppers end up covering that one. So Donut for anyone 67 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: there who is you know, tailing the Hilltoppers, you needed 68 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: something special to happen. You gave it to them. And 69 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: in a game where Malchi Corley, you know, fingers crossed 70 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: that he's healthy, you just figure that they were going 71 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: to ball out and throw it all over usf But 72 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: he gets hurt in that game, actually got carted off. 73 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: So we're gonna wait to see his status here moving forward. 74 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 3: Matheson's in, Matheson's on crutches. 75 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be difficult. I mean, Dalvin Smith, I know, 76 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: is still there in the receiving but how can they 77 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 1: piece this together moving forward? Something to monitor with the Hilltoppers. 78 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: But Jaquez Donut evans my G five Hero of the Week. 79 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: That's the thing with the g ii FO this week. 80 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: By the ways, for every bad beat, it was a 81 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 3: hell of a win for somebody. 82 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: Absolutely it did nice done. All right, let's hop into 83 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: our best bets. I'll give you first crack at it 84 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: here in week two. 85 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm for my best bet of the week. 86 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: I'm going with Florida Atlantic minus four and a half 87 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 3: minus five. I do honestly like either spot. Ohio is 88 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 3: really stry without Cordis Roarc and it's weird. Like they 89 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: said they held them out for a precaution against San 90 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: Diego State, but then he wasn't even on the silent 91 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 3: at the end of the game. Then Alvin said he 92 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 3: was on track to play last week, didn't play. Now 93 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 3: he's saying he's on track to play this week, but 94 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: he said that last week. I don't really know. He 95 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: didn't play against Long Island. They didn't look good. 96 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: C J. 97 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 3: Harrison, Parker Navarro both played. They played the same amount 98 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 3: of snaps. 99 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: C J. 100 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 3: Harrison looked really bad this year and Navar didn't look 101 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 3: great either, and neither his work. Neither of them are 102 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 3: Curtis Ark. And I'll be honest with you, I like 103 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 3: this play even with if Work plays, I still like it. 104 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 3: And if Work plays, I think it drops. And if 105 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 3: you can get it for three, if we get three whole, 106 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: I still like it. The other thing is Sam Wiggles 107 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 3: didn't play Jakobe Jones didn't play. Maybe both was a precaution. 108 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 3: Either way, I like the Owls. Ohio put up just 109 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 3: twenty seven points on Long Island. They had zero supposed 110 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: to plays. Fau rold mom If forty two twenty, It 111 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 3: was like forty two to fourteen. After three quarters, they 112 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 3: totally called off the dogs and Casey Thompson looked exactly 113 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 3: as I hoped he would. Twenty to twenty five, two 114 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 3: hundred eighty yards, five touchdowns, and the Owls had ten 115 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 3: point seven yards per dropback. Mcammon had one hundred and 116 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 3: twenty five yards in a touchdown. Kobe Lewis is expected 117 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: back this week. Gives them a two headed monster there. 118 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: FAU just has a ton of talent their team. I 119 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 3: was high before the season. You know John Day, Western, 120 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 3: Jaywon Burton, Tony Johnson, all of who whom scored a 121 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,679 Speaker 3: touchdown last week. HI was essentially a three man team 122 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 3: with Rourke, Bangora and Wigless, and two of them are hurt. 123 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: So FAU has experience on defense. Their entire secondaries back, 124 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 3: and I love what I saw from Thompson in Week 125 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 3: one kind of answered any questions I had. There's a 126 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: lot of questions about Ohio. So I really like the 127 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 3: Owls here. 128 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is absolutely the right play. I 129 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: think this is the market and this is like one 130 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: of the last opportunities to get a team like FAU, 131 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: who I think is going to be in the mix 132 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: in the AAC this year to win a conference crown. 133 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 1: Everyone is evaluating them, at least in the casual square market. 134 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: On the team they were last year, that doesn't matter. 135 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: They are absolutely loaded from the transfer portal. McCammon being 136 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: as effective as he was in Game one was a 137 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: great sign. I'm a believer in Tom Herman. And as 138 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: you pointed out, it's like you take the FAU skill 139 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: position players and then you take the Ohio skill position 140 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: players and look apples to apples. If either of them, 141 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: you know, whether it's Rourke or Wigs, is hurt, then 142 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: this is a runaway in my opinion. But even if 143 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 1: they gut it out, I mean, you know, their wide 144 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: receivers in a boot, you know Rourke's not on the 145 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: side line. They're being cagey about it in the media, Like, 146 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: I don't think this is a good sign at all 147 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: for an Ohio team that you know, Laiden egg I 148 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: understand that there was you know, injury issues on the 149 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: road against San Diego State, but that should have been 150 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: a situation where their backup quarterback comes in with a 151 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: ton of experience and just like picks it up and 152 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: they go. They did not respond. So I think this 153 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: is an opportunity and maybe the last one of this 154 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: month to get FAU in a good number. So I 155 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: really like that for your top play of week two. 156 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: All Right, it didn't take long for me to get 157 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: involved with the little Trent Dilford football. My best at 158 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: youab traveling to Statesborough. It's under that key number of 159 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Give me Georgia's southern lane six and a 160 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: half and I'm going to walk you through a new 161 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: tradition in the Calgary's household. Get myself a nice little lunch, 162 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: I fire up YouTube on the TV, and I watched 163 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: Trent Dilford's presser. Now, this is difficult for me to say, 164 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: but the first thing right off the bat is that 165 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: he's such a chatty Kathy that he can't help but 166 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: reveal things that most coaches play close to the vest 167 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: that they you know, the conversations he's having with his 168 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: position coaches, with his coordinators what they're looking at on 169 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: film study. Because of that, some interesting things came out 170 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: that just basically cemented my instincts on this. Number One, 171 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: they played North Carolina A and C. They rated one 172 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety first in the Sagarin rankings. I think 173 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: that's a little bit generous. Deep in the third quarter 174 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: in that game, it was twenty one to three, So 175 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: he mentioned that, you know, they weren't executing as well 176 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: as they wanted to early in the game. Their lines 177 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: took a little bit of time to settle in. They 178 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: end up scoring on an eleven play ninety eight yard 179 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: drive in garbage time to cover that game, which just 180 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: you know, confirms for. 181 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: Me throwing the ball the whole drive. 182 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: Throwing the ball the whole drive, cementing for me that 183 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: Trent Dilfer is the son of a bitch. But at 184 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: least we know that he was not feeling comfortable with 185 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: their performance, so he needed to see more. But the 186 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: big piece of information that he let slip is that 187 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: he wants to look at the tape and he wants 188 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: to look at Georgia Southern new defensive coordinator. We mentioned 189 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: it during the Sun Belt preview Brandon Bailey comes in 190 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: from Buffalo. Buffalo led the nation in havoc plays last year, 191 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: so it would be really helpful if they had game 192 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: tape to figure out where the pressure is going to 193 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: come from. What some of their exotic packages look like. 194 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: They played the Citadel, who essentially runs the triple option, 195 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: so it's totally useless. That was the word that Dilfer used. 196 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: So it's like they don't even have tape. They just 197 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: go ahead and throw that out. And then for the 198 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: team he played playing North Carolina A and T, they 199 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: don't pass at all. They threw eight times in the 200 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: entire game. Now here comes the air raid and the 201 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: Eagles Georgia Southern threw at forty times. In the opener, 202 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: Davis Brynn, I know we give him a hard time 203 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: on the pod, but he hit seventy five percent of 204 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: his pass attempts. They got great receivers and Burgess Junior 205 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: and Hood Jalen White looked great. This to me is 206 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: a number that should be over ten. So to get 207 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: it below the key number of seven is amazing. But 208 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: Dilfer couldn't let the press commerce go without giving me, 209 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: you know, a bit of a gift number one one 210 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 1: of the press numbers. Aaron Birmingham goes, yeah, he went 211 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: thirty eight for forty two Jacob Zeno. But a lot of 212 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: them were dump offs and passes under five yards in 213 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: terms of air distance, and they were just you know, easy, 214 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: you know, safety routes to kind of drop off on. 215 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: And what did Dilfer say? He goes, well, you know 216 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: you're criticizing Zeno, but well the goat and he was 217 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: inferring to Tom Brady made his whole career out of that, 218 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: and we never criticized him. And then he made sure 219 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: to reference Drew Brees, Steve Young, and Joe Montana in 220 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: the West Coast offense. So no pressure Jacobs now. But 221 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: for my money, the best part of the whole thing 222 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 1: was he's talking about how surgical his you know, quarterbacks 223 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: are just their doctors on the field, and he made 224 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: a connection between using machete to make a pastromi sandwich 225 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: and being a surgeon to save someone's life. 226 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 2: The analogy I give all the time is, you know, 227 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: a machete and a scalpel are two weapons, right, they're 228 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 2: both sharp instruments. One a butcher makeshift stronomy sandwich, Right, 229 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 2: one the scalpel a doctor saves your life. It's much 230 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: more surgical. That's the way we expect our quarterbacks. 231 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: To play, Trent Dilferd. It is going to be my 232 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: distinct pleasure when Georgia Southern beats the brakes off. You 233 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: gatta get after their asses. This is a team that 234 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 1: at home, since coming up to the FBS level, has 235 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: been thirty two and twenty against the spread. Love Georgia 236 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: Southern in spots like this, they're even better as a 237 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: home favorite nineteen and eleven, the seventh best figure in 238 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: the entire country since twenty fourteen. So let's go get 239 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: a let's get them. What do you think? 240 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: I have a question. I don't I don't want to 241 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 3: pile on the UABA. I know that's kind of been 242 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 3: your throne. Did they get new uniforms? Because I was 243 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 3: watching the highlights and that was all I could think of. 244 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 3: Their uniforms are so ugly. 245 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 4: I don't know if I. 246 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: Just like, they have a whole new suite of uniforms 247 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: that I'm sure Trent's got his fingerprints all over, just. 248 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: So they are new. Because I was watching, I was like, 249 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 3: have I never noticed how their uniforms are before. I 250 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 3: don't know if it was just the deal for hate 251 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 3: was making me think they're ugly. So they are new, 252 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 3: so I'm not just like going crazy. I mean, he's 253 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 3: essentially the personality of a TV evangelist, so so he 254 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 3: wants to dress gaudy, he wants to look ridiculous, and 255 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 3: now he has a football team to match it. So 256 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:43,839 Speaker 3: I can't wait for them to go into Statesboro and 257 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 3: get pushed around. 258 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: And you know, he even took shots on it was 259 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: a bit subtle, but for me listening very closely, our 260 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: quarterback quarterbacks are accurate. Their quarterbacks throw the ball thirty down, 261 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: thirty yards down the field, and their receivers adjust to 262 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: it to make it look accurate. David's smart in baby, 263 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: just tear this defense up. Oh my god. All right, yeah, 264 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: let's get into our G five high five. That's our 265 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: round robin here in week two, the G five high 266 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: five high five high five. We're gonna go ahead and 267 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: give you five picks, put them together any way that 268 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: you want to. When I do a round robin, I 269 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: usually do by twos, so that means it creates a 270 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: series of two like parlays. You end up hitting. You know, 271 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: two of the five close to breaking even three out 272 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: of five you're making money. Anything above that, you're crushing it. 273 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: So let me get started with a team that's my 274 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: co host mentioned at the very top Texas State playing UTSA. 275 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: I had a number written down for their total. It 276 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: was seventy. It is currently sixty three and a half. 277 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: That is not high enough for two teams that are 278 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: going to play with tempo, that have very good G 279 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: five quarterbacks TJ Finley, the much maligned TJ Finley, at 280 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: least in the preseason on this pod, as you mentioned, 281 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: shredded a Power five team. David Randa coach, defense four 282 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: hundred and forty one total yards, ten yards per attempt. 283 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: So it's not a dink and dunk tra Delford defense 284 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: or offense. I should say receiving corps looked great and 285 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 1: the defense caught a break when shape and got hurt. 286 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's what's so interesting about this total 287 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: is that he was absolutely cooking him. He was twenty 288 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 1: one for thirty one for three zero three and two tds. 289 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: If he doesn't get hurt, maybe Baylor comes back and 290 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: makes that a game in the fourth quarter. So this 291 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: past defense from Texas State up against UTSA, coming off 292 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: of Frank Harris's worst game and what three years I 293 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: think is a perfect bounce back opportunity at home in 294 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: the Alamodome on the fast carpet there, I think it's 295 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: going to be big plays left and right. I'm hoping 296 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: that to Corey and Clark plays. It was clear that 297 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 1: they missed him in the receiving corps. But the thing 298 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: about it is, on one side you had all the 299 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: points that were scored in Texas State Baylor. On the 300 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: other side, you had UTSA Houston seventeen to fourteen. People 301 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: would say, all right, this offense is broken and the 302 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: UTSD defense is better. I'll bring up the fact that 303 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: this was Doug Belk defense for Houston. He's a million 304 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: dollar coordinator for a reason. Texas State doesn't have anywhere 305 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: near the overall talent or the scheme. I think to 306 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: slow down this offense, and even in a really bad 307 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: game in terms of overall scoring production, Cavorian Barnes went 308 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: for over one hundred yards. They rushed for over two 309 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: hundred as a team on six yards per carry. I 310 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: think the road Runners hashtag meet me going to go 311 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: up and down the field in this game, and I 312 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: see this below and past sixty three and a half, 313 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: I played up to sixty seven. Me, what are your 314 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: thoughts here at the Alma Dume. 315 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know at all. I gu said, you know, 316 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 3: I gotta go back and rewatch that Texas State game again. 317 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 3: I had like kind of eyes on it, but not 318 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 3: not as much as I would like. Yeah, I mean 319 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 3: their offense. You know, I don't want to get too 320 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 3: far ahead of ourselves, but you know, it has a 321 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 3: little bit of exactly Western Kentucky come up in. The 322 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 3: offense just is a totally different animal and it takes 323 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 3: a while to adjust to. Like this isn't you know, 324 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 3: dispavot all Texas State teams anymore. So I like it. 325 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: I like a lot. 326 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, hopefully Clark plays. I think last I saw his 327 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 3: game time decision again, which always scares me. 328 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: But we'll say for. 329 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 3: My first pick, I'm going with the team. We're both 330 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 3: another team, we're both high in the preseason. I'm kind 331 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 3: of sticking with like preseason thoughts. I'm taking Marshall minus 332 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: three against East Carolina. We are Yes, Marshall didn't look 333 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 3: great against Albany, They won just twenty one to seventeen. 334 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 3: But there was one stat line that mattered to me. 335 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 3: Rasheane Elle eighteen carries one hundred and thirty seven yards 336 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 3: two touchdowns. He's back. He is the Rashine Lle we 337 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 3: know in love. The final score is a bit misleading 338 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 3: in this one as well. Marshall gained them four hundred 339 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 3: and thirteen to three hundred. They had a fifty one 340 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: success rate on offense. They went one for ten on 341 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 3: third down. I mean, how likely is that to continue? 342 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 3: They also had a turnal run downs and a blockfield 343 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 3: in the red zone. They moved the ball fine, fanser 344 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 3: looked fine. But if Ali's gonna look like that all season, 345 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 3: our win total is going to be in pretty good shape. 346 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 3: Their defense was dominant against Rown last year. On Border 347 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 3: showed out in this first game twelve tackles, two tackles 348 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 3: for loss, and a sack last week. 349 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: He's a monster. 350 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 3: It's hard to put much stock in East Carolina's game 351 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 3: against Michigan, but you know, even though Michigan was playing 352 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: with heavy hearts due to Jim Harbaugh suddenly passing away 353 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 3: rip Jim, put your fours up, uh jj McCarthy has 354 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 3: seventy percent success. 355 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: Are you throwing the ball? 356 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 3: Lake Cormer averaged eight yards per carry. Like Michigan did 357 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 3: whatever they wanted again Rip Jim Ecu rotated, Mason Garcia 358 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 3: and Alex Finn neither looked good at all this. We 359 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 3: talked about it in the off season. The team has 360 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 3: just lost so much. Obviously, Holan Eylers is the most 361 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 3: notable and it's clear they have they don't have an 362 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 3: answer to replace it. Not only either of these guys 363 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 3: are good. So while I'm not totally basing much on 364 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 3: Week one, if you asked me before the season, I 365 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 3: would have said Marshall's probably six to seven points better 366 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 3: than you SeeU. So Week one didn't change much for me. 367 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 3: So line three points, that's it. Give me the Thundering 368 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 3: Herd in this one. 369 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: Mike Houston using timeouts down the stretch to get a 370 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: field goal in to not get shut out in NRP 371 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: did cover. 372 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 3: I had Ecu, they did cover. 373 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: It was emblematic of really the entire Week one. There 374 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: were so many meaning less scores in the final minutes 375 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 1: that screwed totals that you know, swung games in terms 376 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: of points spread, Penn State. I was on that didn't 377 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: deserve doing that one. But hey, you know, James Franklin 378 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: wants to be a big boy head coach. He wants 379 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: to not just be good, he wants to cover spreads. 380 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 3: First of all, great, at least we were running it 381 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 3: and you had to get you had to get big 382 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 3: big bow some airtime. Also at the rest, Virginia did 383 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 3: that dumbass ring around the roads, the two point conversion. 384 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 3: You're not the freaking two time super Bowl champion Kansas 385 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 3: City Chiefs, you're freaking West Virginia and you're down twenty. 386 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 3: That was they deserved it after that clown show. 387 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: All right, flipping back the G five land, but we'll 388 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: stay with a big ten tint to it's can you 389 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 1: believe that UTEP is favored on the road, a UTEP 390 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: team that has never beaten Actually they have been a 391 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: Power five program when Linda Johnson was the president. It 392 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 1: has been that long since the miners have beaten a 393 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: Power fight program. 394 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 3: Wait real quick, I'm so happy you're taking this because 395 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 3: I had it written down and I crossed the OCCS. 396 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 3: I thought it was too growth and I was going 397 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 3: to bring it up at the end of the podcast 398 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 3: and just be like, is it too gross to beout 399 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 3: in Northwestern? So I'm so glad you're doing it. 400 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: Go for it all right, I mean, picks up Minor Nation, 401 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: play all the sound clips, like, I'm excited to get 402 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 1: back to a team that's I had played, you know, 403 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: faded in the first game against Jacksonville State. They didn't 404 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: look so great against Incarnate Word. But in the second 405 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: half they poured it on. They ran for three hundred 406 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: and twenty nine yards. And this was a UTEP team 407 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: that I thought they had, you know, let's call it 408 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: a top fifteen G five offensive line. They finally got 409 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: back to their identity. Dion Hankins one hundred and seventy 410 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: four yards on the ground over six and a half 411 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: yards per carry. The defense picked you know, you picked apart, really, 412 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: I guess in the first six quarters we'll call it 413 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: second half shut up against Incarnate Word. Now comes the 414 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 1: vaunted Northwestern offense. They talk about a team that is 415 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: collapsing in on itself like a you know, a dying star. 416 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 1: Northwesterns two quarterbacks average four point seven yards per attempt 417 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: and three point three yards per attempt. They finished with 418 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: twelve rushing yards against Rutgers. This offense is dead as 419 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 1: a door nail. I see UTEP winning in a very 420 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: sexy we'll call it twenty to thirteen kind of game. 421 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: Don't mind laying the point. I'll play it up to three. 422 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: Let's go Utep Minor Mother Dad is not where I. 423 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 3: Thought you were going. I was gonna say, I have 424 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 3: to bet Northwestern. 425 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: I don't. 426 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 3: I think you TEP stinks and you're getting You're giving 427 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 3: me a big ten school as a home dog. 428 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: Against Listen, I got a veteran quarterback. You can't disagree 429 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: with me. 430 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 3: They Ben Bryan's a veteran quarterback. 431 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 1: They had a very good G five offensive line, they 432 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: have very good running back. And we know Bradley Dale 433 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: Paveto how I feel about him. He's going to cook 434 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: up a game plan. I think I could cook up 435 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: a game plan to slow down this Northwestern offense. It's broken. 436 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: They have no quarterback and they can't run the ball. 437 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: So like, I don't see how Northwestern scores more than 438 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in this game. And the way they looked 439 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: against Rutgers, like this is a team I think just 440 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: on the verge of putting up the white Flag already 441 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: coming off a one and eleven season. So I had 442 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: asked you that team. 443 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 3: If i'd ask you last year when he was at Cincinnati, 444 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 3: who's better quarterback Ben Bryant or Gavin Hardison, what would 445 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 3: you have said? I probably I still think Brian's better. 446 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: Than probably would have been Bryant. But like, what I 447 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: know about Gavin Hardison is that he's gonna take some 448 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 1: deep shots to Tyron Smith in this game and at 449 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 1: least gives me some vision into what the game is 450 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: going to look like. They're gonna run the ball effectively. 451 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: I think they'll run for over one hundred, one hundred 452 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: and fifty yards and then is he going to hit 453 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: one or two deep shots? And that's the entire game. 454 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I was on the right side of 455 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville State game. I probably should have lost that. 456 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, they had a touchdown that was reversed on 457 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: a deep ball that was beautiful from Hardison and it 458 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: just nicked the turf. So it's like that game swings 459 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: right there. And how differently do we feel about UTEP 460 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 1: if they're two and oh and not one in one 461 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: coming into the spot. But I like to disagree embrace 462 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: the bait your next pick here in the G five 463 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: five five. 464 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 3: All right, I have a question for you. You do power ratings, right, yes, 465 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 3: all right? If you can pull them up quick? Where 466 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: do you have San Diego State and Coastal Carolina outrated? 467 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: Last time I looked, I had them in my seventies, 468 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: So I have San Diego State seventy seventh and Coastal 469 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: seventy ninth, So same neighborhood. 470 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 3: It's about the same. But you do actually have San 471 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 3: Diego State higher? Yes, all right, because I wouldn't so 472 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 3: if we played UCLA minus fourteen and a half against Coastal, 473 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 3: I'm certainly playing a minus thirteen and a half against 474 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 3: San Diego State. For starters, we mentioned it. I mentioned 475 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 3: it last week. You did do that little QB experiment 476 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 3: experiment better freaking be over our chip. Kelli is going 477 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 3: to have some problems. Dante Moore is so clearly the 478 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 3: better quarterback. He averaged eleven yards per play outside of 479 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 3: you know, one mistake. He looked every bit of five 480 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 3: star talent. I expect him to start. I expect him 481 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 3: to play this whole game, and I expect him to dominate. 482 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 3: Carson Steele and TJ. Harden both ran the ball really well, 483 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 3: and this UCLA defense forced Grace and McCall into maybe 484 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 3: the worst game I've ever seen him play. He has 485 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 3: thrown eight interceptions in three years, and he threw two 486 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 3: last week against the Bruins. He looked uncomfortable the whole game. 487 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 3: The one thing we were pretty sure Coastal would do 488 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 3: well was run the ball. They had fifty six rushing yards. 489 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 3: They had one point six yards per kerry. That's all 490 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 3: San Diego State wants to do. And San Diego State 491 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 3: managed just twenty points on Ohio, who we just mentioned. 492 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 3: You know, they lost Rourke in the first quarter, and 493 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 3: they did that with that with just three in. They 494 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 3: had three interceptions and managed just twenty points. Jalen Maiden stinks. 495 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 3: He had a grand total of eighty seven passing yards 496 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 3: against Idaho State. He is not a good quarterback. Yes, 497 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 3: he was able to run the ball all over the Bengals, 498 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 3: but he's not going to do that against UCLA. Meanwhile, 499 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 3: Idaho State threw for over three hundred yards against San 500 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 3: Diego State's defense. I'm not a big FCS guy, so 501 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 3: unless Idaho State is some you know, crazy passing attack 502 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 3: I and not Dymore is going to shred this defense. 503 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 3: And I know this is this game's on the road 504 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 3: instead of home, but UCLA might have a bigger home 505 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 3: field advantage in into Yo State than they do at 506 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 3: the Rose Bowl, So I'm certainly not worried about that. 507 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,719 Speaker 3: The one concern is Chip Kelly is a buffoon and 508 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 3: he does mess around in non con games. And yeah, 509 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 3: I made the same mistake with Luke Fickle last week 510 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 3: and it burned me. If Chip Kelly could just like 511 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 3: get the flu before the game and not show up 512 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 3: and just let Dante More coach and shred this defense, 513 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 3: I think the Bruins crush them because, like I said, 514 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 3: I think coach Tho is much better than San Diego State. 515 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 3: And maybe I'm always lower on Santio s than the market, 516 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 3: but getting under two touchdowns with what we saw from 517 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 3: Dante More, if he plays all game, they win this handily. 518 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 3: So give me UCLA minus thirteen and a half. 519 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: It's pretty simple for me. I'm just gonna wait right 520 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 1: until kickoff. If they confirm that Dante Moore starting, I 521 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: would play this all the way up to twenty. I 522 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: think the offense, the offense will absolutely run up and 523 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: down the field with him if it's anything less than them, 524 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 1: you know, showing him in the little telecast bubble and 525 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,160 Speaker 1: saying starting quarterback, playing four quarters, let's do it. Nothing 526 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: less than that, it's a past for me. It's that simple, 527 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: because if I see College or Garber's absolutely not. 528 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 3: If it's anything less than that, I'm on a plane 529 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 3: to fight. My wife will join me because as an 530 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 3: Eagles fan, she hates Chip Kelly more than just buy 531 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 3: anyone on the planet, so she'll definitely join me in 532 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 3: that one. 533 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: All right, Let's wrap up this G five high five 534 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: with another Arkansas state play. Worked out pretty well for 535 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 1: me in week one, Oklahoma won seventy three nothing and 536 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 1: Butch Jones, Butch, but but but Butch line, Butch, don't 537 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: kill my vibe. You know what? You know, he seems 538 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: like his vibe was killed there in Norman because he 539 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: almost bursts into tears multiple times and the camera gone 540 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: him and they're nothing. And here's the thing, I pull 541 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 1: no punches. I hate Trent Dilfer, I wish him ill, 542 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't want him to succeed. I want him to 543 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: be fired this year. But Butch Jones, I mean like, 544 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: I think college football is a better, funnier place with 545 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: Butch Jones in it, like the guy who created the 546 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: turnover trash can in knox Hill, Tennessee. Like, don't take 547 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: him away from me. I mean, you're probably gonna take 548 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: him away from He's gonna get fired. But just in general, 549 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: I'm not wishing ill on him. But when you look 550 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: at the team that he's put together, JT. Shroud completed 551 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 1: less than fifty percent of his passes. But this defense, man, 552 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: oh my god. They gave up thirty six first downs. 553 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: Oklahoma was eleven for fourteen on third down and also 554 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: just to you know, the cherry on top any opportunity 555 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 1: they had to get off the field. They have fourteen 556 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: penalties for one hundred and eleven yards. And their best 557 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: player by far, can you name their best player? You know, 558 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: pop quiz hotshot? Who is the best player in Arkansas State? 559 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 3: It's their receiver. What's his space? 560 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: Are you on with Rutger? That would be a pretty 561 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,479 Speaker 1: solid Yeah, Rucker, I would argue it's Dominic Zavada, their 562 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: placekicker when seventeen last year he even went over to 563 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: bricking makeupble field goals. So Arkansas State is just plummeted 564 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: in the Saggaring ratings. They're below Central Arkansas and eighteen 565 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: other FCS schools. So yeah, I mean, here comes Memphis. 566 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: They're laying twenty one in this game. Memphis is well 567 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: balanced seth Hennigan has started twenty five games like it 568 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: felt like just yesterday. He was a true freshen thrown 569 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: to the fire. He looked great in the opener, seventy 570 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 1: five percent completions, almost ten yards per attempt, two touchdowns. 571 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: They ran it really well. The Sunnen Smith kid came 572 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: out of nowhere, pairs up with old Dominion transfer Blake Watson. 573 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: The d line for me was the biggest question for Memphis. 574 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: They had some transfers come in Josh Ellison and Kavi 575 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: Andante Spears, both over three hundred pounds. They absolutely helped 576 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: shore up their run defense. So when I look at 577 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 1: Arkansas State, having watched that full Oklahoma game, yes, the 578 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: Oklahoma defense is a step above talent wise than Memphis. 579 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: But you know that was a seventy three nothing game. 580 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say Arkansas State scores seventeen here and 581 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: Memphis scores forty nine. I'll lay the twenty one. You 582 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: can do the math for me. You were now the 583 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 1: official math correspondent here on the pod. But I think 584 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 1: that's a cover. What do you think about this? 585 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 3: One one of my favorite stats I've ever seen. This 586 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 3: stat never really matters, but I like looking at it. I 587 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 3: just think caith for those of you who don't know, 588 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 3: available yards is like, if you start the ball at 589 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 3: the twenty yard line for that drive, you have eighty 590 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 3: available yards. If you start at the fifty, you have 591 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 3: fifty vail yards whatever yards is possible to get up 592 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 3: to score. Oklahoma picked up ninety five percent of all 593 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 3: available yards in that game. I don't think I've ever 594 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 3: seen a number that high. That means they score on 595 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 3: every five yards was all they could have gotten, and 596 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 3: Arkansas State managed to stop them for five yards total 597 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 3: a game. It's stunning. Also, in a two seconds side ran, 598 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 3: we're talking about Dontemore, is Jackson Arnold gonna take that 599 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 3: starting job? Because he is nasty? He might end up 600 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 3: Oklahoma's starting quarterback. He's he's got the goods. He might 601 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 3: take a job this year. 602 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 4: Thefore we go any further.

They 639 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: actually led twenty one seven in that game and just 640 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: couldn't get together offensively in the second half these twenty 641 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: four to twenty one to Temple. That was painful. I'll 642 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: get it started here with my pick because it's a 643 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: short explanation. There really wasn't in G five lands coming 644 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: into a week two game. More of a disparity between 645 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: Boise getting absolutely boat raced on the road in Seattle 646 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: against Washington they couldn't stop the pass at all, and 647 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: then UCF in their debut as a Big twelve team 648 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: beating the Brakes off of Kent State. They won I 649 00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: think by fifty to fifty six to six something like that, 650 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: Amy exactly fifty. 651 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 652 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,959 Speaker 1: Now they're traveling twenty six hundred miles to Boise, and 653 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: this is a team that doesn't like to travel. Last 654 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: year they left the state of Florida just four times, 655 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: including the Bowl game. Two of those games, John Rice 656 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: Plumbley did not play well. If you remember the thirty 657 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: four to thirteen lost to ECU. Plumbley threw three picks 658 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: and they got blown out by Duke. In the Military Bowl, 659 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: they absolutely know showed that one, and that's kind of 660 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: emblematic of the way Plumbley plays. I think either boys, 661 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: he's gonna win this one outright, or we're gonna see 662 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: the Golden arm, the golden child. Plumbley just blow up 663 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: and have a huge game. Because when you look at 664 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,959 Speaker 1: his games last year, he had five games with qbrs 665 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: north of ninety, but he also had six games with 666 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: sub forty qbrs, So he you know, they sink and 667 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: swim or swimming with him at quarterback. And Gus Mel's on. 668 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: Here's another tibit that I really like as a head 669 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: coach on the road against the spread. Dating back to 670 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen at Auburn, he's ten and fourteen against the spread. 671 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a great road coach. And when 672 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: I look at what Plumbley does, he's gonna run the 673 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: Boise defense. For as bad as it was against the Husky, 674 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: they got picked apart, and I think they gave up 675 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 1: four to fifty through the air to Pennix Junior, but 676 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: they held the hookies. Is seventy eight rushing yard, It's 677 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: only four point one yards per carry. So if I'm 678 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: taking anything out of that and saying, listen, that game 679 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: got away from them, They're not playing the same kind 680 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: of caliber team in UCF. Washington is clearly a top 681 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: top ten team. They got a Heisman caliber quarterback. The 682 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: big question here and this is what I'm going to 683 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: pose to you, Taylor Green. Colin Wilson. He warned us 684 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: in the offseason. The OC was like, listen, I am 685 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: not going to run this quarterback. Well, he better pull 686 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: his heat out of his ass and start running this 687 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: quarterback because according to Avlos, the head coach, they ran 688 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: ten read type of plays for him there in Week 689 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: one in Washington, the Dns just stood at the line 690 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,959 Speaker 1: of scrimmage and said, feel free, hand the ball off 691 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: to the running back. We're not going to let you 692 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: get to the edge. So do they let him run 693 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: a little bit and make some things happen? Because he 694 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: did have some decent throws. The offensive line actually protected 695 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: him pretty well. I was more worried in that game 696 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: about the edge rushers from Washington didn't seem to give 697 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: him a ton of problems because they did a lot 698 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: of rollouts in you know, deep dry. They also average 699 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: four point nine yards per carry, So the Bois offensive line, 700 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: it's encouraging. This is a play calling situation to me, 701 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: but I'm going to take a gamble on the week 702 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: one being you know that recency bias where the market 703 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: has UCF far ahead of Bois. I think it's a 704 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: tough road trip and I think playing on the smurf 705 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: turf is always difficult, so I'll take the Broncos on 706 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: the money line. 707 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't totally hate it, you know, full disclosure, 708 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 3: I already bet UCF minus two. I think it's moved 709 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 3: over field goal now, but I don't. I still don't 710 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 3: hate the money line play, just given what everything you 711 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 3: said with the variance of plumbley and like you said, 712 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 3: like uc have to either win easily or they'll lose. 713 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 3: And you mentioned the tailing green thing, which is kind 714 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 3: of what scares me is me and Colin had that 715 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 3: little debate and he was right. You know, he's he's 716 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 3: throwing the ball out more, which I don't love. But 717 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 3: maybe they realize, all right, that didn't work. You know, 718 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 3: let the kid run and it does work. So I 719 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 3: think this game has variant and upside. Like I said, 720 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 3: I am on UCF for what it's worth, but I 721 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 3: don't hate I think it has more variance than a 722 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 3: tip game. So I don't hate the money line. Look, 723 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 3: I wouldn't play Boise. I wouldn't play Bois with the points, 724 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 3: I would either take Boise money line or don't play 725 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 3: this game, or you know, or take UCF. So I 726 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 3: don't hate it, but from mine, I'm pairing it with 727 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 3: another plus one thirty play give me, give me. The 728 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 3: Huskies against Georgia State, Look, I really liked what I 729 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 3: saw from Joey Fagnano other than this game. 730 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: His numbers weren't. 731 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 3: Great in the end, but I watched every snap of 732 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 3: this game, and he looked very comfortable in this offense. 733 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 3: He's a lot more mobile. 734 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: Than I thought he was. 735 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 3: You know, he doesn't have the rushing upside of a Roberson, 736 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 3: but he's a much more polished passer, which, if you 737 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 3: watch the team last year, is exactly what they need. 738 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 3: They don't need a runner, they already have Victor Rosa 739 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 3: and Devonte Houston a care of the rushing attack. Rosa 740 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 3: had ninety nine yards and two touchdowns on just nine 741 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 3: carries against NC State. I expect their defense to be 742 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 3: much better than Georgia State's, and this defense was able 743 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 3: to hold the wolf Pack to twenty four points. Brendan 744 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 3: Armstrong had just one hundred and fifty five yards passing. 745 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 3: NC State had one explosive play the higher game. Meanwhile, 746 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 3: Georgia State just allowed over four hundred yards passing to 747 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 3: Rhode Island last week in a forty two to thirty 748 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 3: five shootout. Marcus Carroll was dominant for the Panthers. He 749 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 3: had one hundred and eighty four yards three touchdowns. I 750 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 3: expect Yukon to do a much better job containing him. 751 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 3: You know, Yukon did struggle to contain Armstrong leave with 752 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 3: the pocket, which kind of you know, Granger might have 753 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 3: a good game with his legs, but the Anti State 754 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 3: running backs managed just one hundred and thirteen yards on 755 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 3: twenty seven carries, so they were able to bottle them up. 756 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 3: So I think they'll contain Carol. If Grainger can beat him, 757 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 3: beat them by his legs on his own, good for him. 758 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 3: But you know, like I said, I don't watch enough 759 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 3: FCS football, so maybe Rhode Island is just some juggernaut. 760 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 3: But giving up over four hundred yards to an FCS team, 761 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 3: a colonial team that went seven to four last year, 762 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 3: they had seven point three yards to play against Georgia 763 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 3: State Like I said, I think Ficnando gives this offense 764 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 3: a different side that we didn't see last year. They 765 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 3: have this upside, this passing attack now, and I think 766 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 3: it's defense still good enough keeping the wolf Pack and 767 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 3: check that. I think they handled Georgia State, so give 768 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 3: me the they win this game. 769 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: I like when you got into the weeds with Carol's 770 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: big game, and I think that's the key here. They 771 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: have to absolutely bottle him up and do a better 772 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,240 Speaker 1: job containing Granger than they did. You know, NC State 773 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: and you know Brendan Armstrong, So I'm with you. If 774 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: I were to play it, I would play UK on 775 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:17,919 Speaker 1: money line, and I think that's where the value lies. 776 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: So hopefully we can pair these two up and you know, 777 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: pay out north of four to one and get into 778 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 1: the winning column here. All right, any picks, We got 779 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 1: a little bit of time left here in the show. 780 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: A quickerminder to our audience. That's the full weekly preview. 781 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:35,799 Speaker 1: That's fbs G five P. Five Everything under the Sun 782 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: with Colin and Stuckey will drop later this week, so 783 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: be sure to be updating your podcast feeds to get that. 784 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: As soon as they give out their picks. They had 785 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: a very nice week one. They're a great tandem to follow. 786 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: As well as BBOC Live show on Saturdays, they also 787 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: put in you know, some content from Brett McMurphy here 788 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 1: the latest on realignment, some of his picks. Also through 789 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: throw out my best G five pick of the week. 790 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,720 Speaker 1: So if you could give us a subscribe, tell a friend, 791 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: tell an enemy, that's how we do it here at 792 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: bbo C, we'd appreciate it, and reminded that our show 793 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: is presented by bet MGM. Real quick. I know it 794 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: wasn't the most robust G five slate, but was there 795 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: anything on the cutting room floor for you here? In 796 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: week two? 797 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 3: You mentioned, I mean you answered it. I was going 798 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,919 Speaker 3: to ask the two gross to bet Northwestern. I still 799 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 3: might have to do it, just I don't know, we'll see. 800 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 3: I might have to just get gross with it and 801 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 3: bet Northwestern as a home dog. The only other one 802 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 3: I kind of considered was North Carolina minus seventeen seventeen 803 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 3: and a half against app State. I didn't talk. I 804 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 3: was like, really good against South Carolina. App States quarterback 805 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 3: got hurt, and that when Ryan Berger got hurt, agi 806 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 3: Ar came in. He looked pretty good, but there's a 807 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 3: reason he didn't win the job. And I just think 808 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 3: that game was so weird last year, so back and forth. 809 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 3: Remember that was the game that was like what was 810 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 3: the final in that game was like sixty something if 811 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 3: they had like forty five points in the last in 812 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. I think North Carolina, even though they won, 813 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 3: was embarrassed by that game. And I think I think 814 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 3: there was a chance they step on app states here. 815 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 3: So I did think about that one, but really nothing 816 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 3: else except the Northwestern but I thought it was too 817 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 3: gross to bran up on the show. Hopefull that's in 818 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 3: Stucky's trass section. 819 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,280 Speaker 1: For a trash game that I circled that I'm probably 820 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: gonna end up paying because the line movement's been pretty significant. 821 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: I had it power rated at twenty eight and it's 822 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: Florida State playing Southern Miss. It's up to thirty one. 823 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: I mean, if there ever was a letdown game on 824 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: a short week, everybody patting me on the back. You're 825 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: going to the playoff, you winning the national title. Jordan 826 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: Travis given the Heisman up against a Southern Miss team 827 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: that the whole offseason we talked about, do they have 828 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: a quarterback? They do they have improved quarterback play. They 829 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: still got Frank Gore Junior. They got the nasty boy defense, 830 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: Like thirty one seems like a lot to me. So 831 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 1: a situational play, I'll throw that in the pod as well. 832 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: I rankings were calling for a four touchdown spread. 833 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 3: I totally forgot Rodriguez. Clark transferred to Southern miss the 834 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 3: old Memphis running back, which is huge because we've seen, 835 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 3: I mean, Frank Gore has to have more touches than 836 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 3: any player in the country in the last like three years. 837 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 3: So given I mean Gorse, I'll had a rushing touchdown 838 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 3: and a receiving touchdown. But justin just you know what, 839 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 3: Clark had nine carries, Like just getting Gore off the 840 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 3: field nine times. I think it's gonna be big for 841 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 3: Gore's production. So and I agree with you. Yeah, Billy 842 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,879 Speaker 3: Wilders looked awesome. So they got a quarterback. I don't 843 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 3: hate it. 844 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, So situation will play Florida State obviously want to 845 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 1: get into their two deep, you know, three deep, try 846 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: to get some people some experience. They got bigger games 847 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: on the horizon, you know, in September taken on Clemson. 848 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: So it is my favorite the letdown, look ahead to 849 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: future games, and you know, maybe win this game by 850 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: let's call it twenty four to twenty eight and not 851 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: end up covering all right.
