We have we have an old friend back 21 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 5: in the NFL, and I know we'll get to it 22 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 5: at some point in the show today. But my teammate 23 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 5: Philip Rivers back with the chart course me back with 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 5: the Colts. 25 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, unreal is the right way to describe it. 26 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 5: I couldn't believe it when I saw it, but I 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 5: shot him a text message and I'm going to be 28 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 5: watching that game with baited breath if if he ends 29 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 5: up starting, I'm assuming they're gonna give him a week, 30 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 5: but who knows. 31 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 3: I think I think he's starting. Yeah, I don't think 32 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 3: you call unless he's starting, right, Like, that is the 33 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 3: whole point of bringing him in. We get some Saturday 34 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 3: NFL games coming up the next couple of weeks, which 35 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: will be fun, and then we'll get some Saturday postseason games. 36 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 3: So yeah, like we're in that. We're in that tweener 37 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: period with college Some of the bowl games too, Like, 38 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 3: don't get me wrong, I like, for example, the game 39 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 3: today the Boys who Washington game like it's it has 40 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 3: its it has its flair for the dramatic because it's 41 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 3: a college football game. But a lot of the bowl 42 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: games over the next week or so outside of the playoff, 43 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 3: they're very pedestrian. But we watch we love it's ball. 44 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 6: It's baul. 45 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 4: It qualifies as the most you can say some of 46 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 4: the matchups is like, well, technically it is football, right. 47 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 6: Man? 48 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 4: I'll tell you what this this the last week not 49 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 4: great for your boy with my precious name fighting Irish, 50 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 4: not getting into the playoff. And listen, man, here's the 51 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: first thing I want to say. Okay, it's kind of 52 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 4: like a deep breath statement because as soon as we 53 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 4: get into like who's in, who's out, why, what's up 54 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 4: with the committee inconsistencies, and then it's just emotion. You know, 55 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 4: it's pure emotion. But this is where I think you 56 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 4: have to exhale and you have to say, this is 57 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 4: just like boxing. What do they say in boxing, don't 58 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 4: leave it in the hands of the judges, right, It's 59 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 4: the famous expression in boxing. It applies to the college 60 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 4: football playoff. Also, you can't leave it in the hands 61 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 4: of the judges. The judges in college football it's the 62 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 4: playoff committee, and you can get to every single argument 63 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 4: you want to. But at the end of the day, 64 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 4: that's what Notre Dame did. They left it in the 65 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 4: hands of the judges, and the judges did what they did, 66 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 4: and it went sideways for the Irish. But man, that's 67 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: the thing is you can't have you know, tears, crocodile tears, 68 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 4: you know, all day long is if you didn't leave 69 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 4: it in their hands. And that's what Notre Dame did, 70 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 4: and they had a chance to take care of business 71 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 4: the first two weeks of their schedule and they didn't, 72 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 4: and that came back to bite them. So that's the 73 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 4: first thing that I would say we could get to 74 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 4: the Committee being a completely inconsistent joke. We're all season long, 75 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 4: it's like, nope, Notre Dame over Miami, Notre Dame over Miami. 76 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 4: Next poll, Notre Dame over Miami. Then the last poll, 77 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 4: just kidding, Miami over Notre Dame. It's like, what what 78 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 4: are you guys talking about? Or the fascination with Alabama. 79 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 4: My gosh, Alabama gets freaking destroyed in the SEC championship 80 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 4: game by Georgia, and the Committee is like, although they're 81 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 4: probably fool scold, we're not gonna move them. They didn't 82 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 4: even budge. They didn't move down one spot. They moved 83 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 4: down everybody else who lost their conference championship games, including BYU, 84 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 4: which coincidentally put Notre Dame in Miami side by side. 85 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 4: They moved BYU down after they got rolled by Texas Tech. 86 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 4: They didn't touch Alabama. So the Committee is completely inconsistent 87 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 4: a total joke. They're more fraudulent than Alabama is, if 88 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 4: you can believe that. But you know, Notre Dame left 89 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 4: it in the hands the judges, and that's on them. 90 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 4: And so all these arguments you're going to hear is 91 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 4: if it's the big bad committee that no, it's Notre 92 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 4: Dame left it in their hands. You got to take 93 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 4: care of business and not do that. And you have 94 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 4: yourself to blame when you make it the committee's decision. 95 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 4: That's the way it went down. 96 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I hated it for the fighting Irish. I 97 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 5: hated it for college football because who would I rather 98 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 5: see in the college football playoff? And maybe there's people 99 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 5: who disagree with me. Maybe they would say Miami would, 100 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 5: Miami would make a more compelling playoff team, But I 101 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 5: would argue Notre Dame. And if you're going to look 102 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 5: at this through the lens that I look at it through, 103 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 5: which is that this is a mate for TV ranking. Anyways, 104 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 5: why not just make it the best ten and two 105 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 5: team of the two teams we're discussing here. You know, why, 106 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 5: why does fairness all of a sudden need to enter 107 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 5: the equation. You're not fair, You've never been fair. The 108 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 5: college football playoff ranking isn't fair. I mean, it's a 109 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 5: it's a myth, it's made up. It's a bunch of 110 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 5: minds coming together in a room and deciding who stays 111 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 5: who goes. 112 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 6: So that's what's always. 113 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 5: Baffling to me, is why certain things happen the way 114 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 5: they do. 115 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 6: And maybe, I don't know, maybe. 116 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 5: There's a certain level of mal intent here because when 117 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 5: you think about Notre Dame, they have a separate television 118 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 5: broadcast rights deal with NBC and the playoffs are mostly 119 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 5: played out on a different network, and so next year 120 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 5: they get an auto bid if they're a top twelve 121 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 5: team based on their independent standing. They're not affiliated with 122 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 5: a conference, and maybe that pisses off some people in 123 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 5: the room who can be swayed by, you know, major 124 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 5: players with with some of these these broadcast companies, you know, 125 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,119 Speaker 5: and so they're like, hey, let's penalize them now because 126 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 5: we're not going. 127 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 6: To be able to in the future. 128 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 5: Hey, they're a top ten team, you know, they're ranked 129 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 5: eleventh or whatever they were when they got bounced out 130 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 5: of this postseason. 131 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 6: We can make the excuse this year. 132 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 5: We won't be able to do it next year, So 133 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 5: let's do it while the getting's good. I think I 134 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 5: think Marcus Freeman's reaction and the Notre Dame Athletic Department's 135 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 5: reaction was somewhat juvenile. 136 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 6: I don't think that. 137 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 5: I don't think that sitting out of bowl season was 138 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 5: necessarily the right choice. But I also understand it to 139 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 5: the to the extent that in some ways it shines 140 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 5: light on a broken system. You know, hey, we can 141 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 5: do this, so we're going to do this double middle finger. Thanks, 142 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 5: but no thanks, We're not going to play your game. 143 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 5: And I also think Marcus Freeman is a all that 144 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 5: worried about, you know, potentially pissing people off because he 145 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 5: might be throwing a couple of stones before he bounces 146 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 5: for the NFL. I don't think we're done with the 147 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 5: coaching carousel in college football, not by a long shot, 148 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 5: because remember Black Monday in the NFL is still yet 149 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 5: to come. We're weeks away from that, and when that occurs, 150 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 5: I think Marcus Freeman could be one of those names 151 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 5: that gets elevated to those ranks and then all of 152 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 5: a sudden, you have a new scrambling of the deck. 153 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 5: If you think your team right now, especially a team 154 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 5: in a mid major or maybe a lower level major 155 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 5: conference coaching higher is settled with their head coach. Think again, 156 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 5: because we've seen it before. Unless there's an ironclad contract, 157 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 5: if a Notre Dame job comes open, they basically can 158 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 5: hire whoever they want, you know, So I think this 159 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 5: gets more interesting from here. 160 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 6: But yeah, just to react to the college football Playoff. 161 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 5: The two things I react to, and I think everybody 162 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 5: is on the one Notre Dame not getting in. 163 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 6: But then the other. 164 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 5: One is, I mean, does Tulane and jam You have 165 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 5: a shot? The answer is no, They're going to get 166 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 5: absolutely smoked in this playoff. 167 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 6: So it kind of feels like, what are we even doing? 168 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 5: I mean, I know you want an auto bid for 169 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 5: a group of five team, but they're not going to 170 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 5: do very much. 171 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 6: And Jamu I think is. 172 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 5: I think they're dogged by twenty one and a half 173 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 5: points or something that might have gotten more out of 174 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 5: control since the last time I looked at it. I mean, 175 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 5: we have a college football Playoff kind of by name 176 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 5: only because we're including teams who have absolutely zero shot 177 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 5: to win a national title this year. 178 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 3: That's the point right there. The point is Alabama's a 179 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 3: top twelve team, so is Notre Dame and so is BYU. 180 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 3: You know why because if you look at the college 181 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 3: ball playoff rankings, all twelve of those teams are in 182 00:09:55,400 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 3: the top twelve. So the reason that people are really 183 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 3: upset is I think the right reason, but framed incorrectly. 184 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 3: Everyone's like, well, Notre Dame should be in in front 185 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: in front of Miami because they were in front of 186 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 3: Miami the whole time, or Notre Dames should be in 187 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: front of Bama because Bama didn't drop. And I agree 188 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 3: Bama should have dropped. But also if you drop Bama 189 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 3: from nine to ten, right, Ohio State and Indiana played 190 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 3: and they flipped one spot, so you drop Bama one 191 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 3: spot like that to me, that's how it should have went. 192 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 3: But that still means Bama's in the top twelve because 193 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 3: they started in nine. You started ninth, so that means 194 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: they should have been tenth. And BYU and you drop 195 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 3: a spot from eleventh, they should have been twelve. Still 196 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 3: in the top twelve. Why do we have a twelve 197 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 3: team playoff and we are taking the twentieth and twenty 198 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 3: fourth ranked teams in the college twelve playoff rankins I'm 199 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: done with the inclusivity stuff. I'm done with it. It's caused 200 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 3: too much trouble than good. Right, last year, what did 201 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 3: we see. We saw the buys for these you know 202 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 3: auto bids. They both got not wax, but they both 203 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 3: lost in their first game. Now they're just in the field. 204 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 3: They're both gonna lose. Omens ain't losing a Tulane Jamu 205 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 3: ain't beatn Norgan. So we now have two years of 206 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 3: this where it's obvious to me that the experiment of 207 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 3: including and not only that it went completely awry this 208 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 3: year for the ACC because the winner of their championship 209 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 3: game didn't even get in. So we need to adjust 210 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 3: the way that we picked the teams. I hate how 211 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 3: the committee handled it. I hate the fact that they 212 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 3: didn't drop Bama. I hate the fact that they flip 213 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 3: these two teams Notre Dame in Miami, after having one 214 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: of them in front of the other for the whole year. 215 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: It is very inconsistent. I agree with all of the 216 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 3: gripe and the anger that is coming from the Notre 217 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 3: Dame fan base this week. I get it, but in life, 218 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 3: bad things are going to happen to you. It is inevitable. 219 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 3: You are going to lose. The only thing you can 220 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 3: control is how you respond to it. And the way 221 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 3: Notre Dame responded to it was like they put on 222 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 3: a clinic of what not to do when something bad 223 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 3: happens in your life, which is just run away and cry. 224 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 3: Like they canceled a book signing for one of the 225 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 3: CFP members. I think they put it back on at 226 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 3: one point, but it was just like it was a mess. 227 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 3: It was a cluster from the start. I feel their pain, 228 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 3: but man, did I hate how the Notre Dame brain 229 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 3: trust reacted to it. It sucks that we don't get 230 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 3: a Notre Dame all Miss game and it's all Miss 231 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 3: too Lane instead. It sucks that we don't get Oregon 232 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 3: versus BYU. That would have been an awesome five to 233 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 3: twelve game. That's the game we should have gotten. But 234 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 3: we have to take JMU, we have to take Tulane 235 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 3: because we're hand coughed by this system which is one 236 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: hundred percent broken, and we're gonna play the games and 237 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 3: those teams are gonna lose. Are they gonna cover? Maybe, 238 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 3: but they're gonna lose, and then next year we'll be 239 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 3: right back to the same spot, and that the MoU 240 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: Brian that memorandum of understanding. Man, I don't know who 241 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 3: cooked that thing up for Notre Dame. But next year, 242 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 3: the same situation happens, the committee will have no choice. 243 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 3: They will have to take Notre Dame. And I think 244 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 3: that is another reason why this system just needs a 245 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 3: massive renovation. 246 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I think it's horrible. Like I've been against automatic 247 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 4: spots from the get go, where it's like, you know, 248 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 4: the Big Ten has been really pushing for we need 249 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 4: at least four spots, no questions asked that. It's like, well, 250 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 4: what if your fourth team in doesn't really deserve to 251 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 4: be in, it sucks that they have an automatic spot. 252 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 4: I'm completely against automatic spots, including for my Irish, like 253 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,359 Speaker 4: that's no you earn your way in, You're not promised 254 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 4: anything just because you happen to be in the top twelve. 255 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 4: I think that's scarbage. I'm not a fan of that whatsoever. 256 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 4: I do want to say real fast, before we move 257 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 4: it along and move it forward here, I want to 258 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 4: give a shout out to mark Ingram, former Alabama running 259 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 4: back now with Fox because before the Big Ten Championship game, 260 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 4: this is last week right. So they're previewing Indiana playing 261 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 4: Ohio State for the Big Ten championship, and this is 262 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 4: right after the SEC championship, and they ask mark Ingram like, hey, 263 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 4: what do you think about your Alabama Crimson Tide getting 264 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 4: into the playoffs. And he starts to answer, and I'm 265 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 4: I'm just kind of like rolling my eyes, like I 266 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 4: know what's coming. It's gonna be roll tied, baby. Yeah, 267 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 4: we belonging that thing. And he did the exact opposite. 268 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 4: He was completely objective. I love what he had to say. 269 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 4: Listen to his argument too. This is mark Ingram on Fox. 270 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 6: You're ty gonna be in it. 271 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 3: In my opinion, I don't think they're in there. 272 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 7: You're number nine, two losses, you get a third loss, 273 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 7: twenty eight to seven. 274 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 6: You lose by twenty one points. 275 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 7: They say you can't be punished for how you play 276 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 7: your conference game, but it matters how you play your 277 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 7: conference game. If you play well, play it close, play tough, then. 278 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 3: You get the benefit of the doubt of not being 279 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 3: punished for that. 280 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 7: But if you go into the conference championship game, r B, 281 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 7: why you lose by twenty seven points. 282 00:14:59,040 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 6: You're Alabama. 283 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 7: You lose about twenty one points, you're number nine, you're 284 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 7: number eleven on the bubble. 285 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 6: Now with three losses, I think that they're out. 286 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 7: I think if you're a Notre Dame and you're a 287 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 7: Miami fan, everything happened the way you want to happen today. 288 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 7: B Yu gets dominated, Alabama gets dominated. In my opinion, 289 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 7: I think that opens the door for Notre Dame to. 290 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 3: Get in and both Miami to get in as well. 291 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 4: Man, well, that's the thing. I give him a lot 292 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 4: of credit for saying it the way that he did 293 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 4: and not going straight Homer, and he made a good 294 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 4: argument for you know, Bama not being in there. I 295 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 4: feel so stupid, guys, I have to tell you real fast. 296 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 4: I was watching the SEC Championship game as a Notre 297 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 4: Dame fan, living with every play like hoping that Alabama 298 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 4: would get blasted because that I thought would give Notre 299 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 4: Dame a much better chance to make it into the 300 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 4: playoff and come to fight out. It didn't matter at all. 301 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 4: They didn't even move down one spot. So I feel 302 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 4: stupid about that, But I mean, bottom line, the committee 303 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 4: was hell bent on putting Alabama in the playoff. You 304 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 4: could see the handwriting on the Wall the week before 305 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 4: after they beat Auburn, Like, they barely held on to 306 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 4: beat Auburn. I know it's a rivalry game, but it's 307 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 4: five and seventeen. Alabama barely squeaked that one out riverboat gambler, 308 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 4: Kaylin Debor going forward on fourth and two. That's how 309 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 4: close it was at the end of the game. And 310 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 4: the Committee on Tuesday was like, man, but what a 311 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 4: first half by Alabama. 312 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 6: That was wow. 313 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 4: It's like, really, guys, come on now. But that's the thing, man, 314 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: the committee, it's I hear all these arguments throughout the week, 315 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 4: and and a lot of them are just bad. It's 316 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 4: not like, oh, oh, Notre Dame is getting punished for 317 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 4: not being in a conference. No they aren't. The committee 318 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 4: didn't sit around in a room and say, all right, 319 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 4: these rat bastards have skated for long enough being independent. 320 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 4: This is the perfect opportunity to punish them. That's not 321 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 4: what happened. And I hear, well, they're making Notre Dame 322 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 4: join a conference. Listen, just so everybody knows, Notre Dame's 323 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 4: not joining a conference. 324 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: Never. 325 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 4: He's never happened there never Unless it hasn't happened, it's 326 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 4: never happens right unless it moves to right, like you 327 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 4: have to be in a super conference or there's no 328 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 4: way you can even get in to get. 329 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 3: Rid of conference completely, and they go to something different. 330 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 4: That's right, that's the only way they're joining a conference. 331 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 4: So like, it's not about punishing them, it's not about 332 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 4: making them join a conference. None of that factored in 333 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 4: at all. I know we love to be cynical, but 334 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 4: it really came down to, while we love Alabama, they're 335 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 4: in and now it's Notre Dame versus Miami, and they 336 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 4: finally honored the head to head matchup, which they should 337 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 4: have done from the get go. That's what it came 338 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 4: down to. It is nothing more than that. So that's 339 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 4: the way it is and we move on. But uh, 340 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 4: bitter pill. As a Notre Dame fan, man I would say, 341 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 4: mostly right end, result, wrong process, Like the process, Rotto. 342 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 4: It's like six weeks of no Notre Dame over Miami 343 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 4: and then at the end it's like, no, that's Miami. 344 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 4: Psych they pulled a psyke on. 345 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 3: Us, Notredame, and by you both should have been in 346 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 3: both of that. Both of those team should be in 347 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 3: the playoffs. 348 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 5: They're both top teams in the rankings, mark Ingram said, 349 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 5: because the reality is, I I don't I don't necessarily 350 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 5: think you should factor out a conference championship game. If 351 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 5: you're going to play it, then it should be punitive 352 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 5: or it should help your standing or your chances. And 353 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 5: it shouldn't be a sometimes thing, you know, it should 354 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 5: be a some It should be always or never. And 355 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 5: that's again another It's emblematic of a broken system because 356 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 5: sometimes it matters and sometimes it doesn't. In this case, 357 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 5: it didn't matter with Alabama. And I don't know if 358 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 5: there's necessarily anything that could have help Notre Dame the 359 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 5: way it shook out. They wanted Miami there and so 360 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 5: they were there. But it's it's a bizarre system that 361 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 5: we're leaning on to decide whether or not a team 362 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 5: stays or goes, and I it needs a major overhaul. 363 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 5: And I don't know if it gets better if you 364 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 5: expect the postseason, if we go to sixteen teams, Do 365 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 5: these get decisions? Do these decisions get harder or easier? 366 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 5: What I do know is getting back to my original 367 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 5: point about James Madison being dogged by more than twenty points. 368 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 5: I think they're twenty one and a half point underdogs. 369 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 5: You'll have more teams like that in the postseason, which 370 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 5: may make less sense. So I don't know where we 371 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 5: go from here, guys, but we're staring down a completely 372 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 5: broken system that makes close to zero sense, that is 373 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 5: lionizing certain teams certain years for certain reasons, and it's 374 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 5: not always for football reasons. And I think that's very obvious. 375 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think Bama is a top twelve 376 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 3: team too. Like that. The point of this whole argument 377 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 3: is not that which one do you take, It's that 378 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 3: everyone should have been in in this conversation, and the 379 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 3: system itself is what needs the renovation because next year 380 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 3: it's gonna be the same thing over and over again. 381 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 3: It's like Groundhog Day. Last year it was the bye 382 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 3: people were crazy about the buys. How do you give 383 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 3: Arizona State and Boise State byes? Yes, we know it 384 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 3: was absurd. They fixed it. Now we have another issue. 385 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 3: When JMU loses by fifty to Oregon, we need to 386 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 3: like take a look at this system and be how 387 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 3: did this happen that we allowed this team that is, 388 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 3: don't get me wrong, a very feisty, good football team. 389 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 3: They are not one of the top twelve teams in 390 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 3: the country. 391 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 6: There need not walked. 392 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 3: They're gonna get destroyed, and it's gonna be That is 393 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 3: when the conversation really will turn. I think, yep, when 394 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 3: JMU goes to Eugene and loses like forty eight to ten, 395 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 3: and we're gonna be like, man, this sucks. 396 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 6: There's no Cinderella's in football. 397 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 5: It's just not gonna happen. It's a really tough sport 398 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 5: to get it. 399 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 3: And I know the argument against it, Brian is like, oh, 400 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 3: March madness and this and that. This isn't march madness. 401 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 3: This is not basketball. It is a different sport. It 402 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 3: is brute force. You need people that are large humans 403 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 3: to play it. And not every school has that many 404 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 3: large humans on their roster. Oregon does, jam you doesn't. 405 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 3: It's gonna be rough, all right. 406 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 4: We've got rich oron Berger, Penn State, All American, Chared 407 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 4: Smith FSR betting analyst.

They're all 450 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 4: making their way to see Fernando Mendoza, right, Like all 451 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 4: these NFL scouts are right, and that sort of thing. 452 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 4: I think the Disney Scouts are gonna be at the 453 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 4: Colts game tomorrow night with Philip Rivers, right, Like Philip 454 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 4: Rivers comes out of retirement if he has like the 455 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 4: sensational performance and they somehow win. And this is a 456 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 4: Disney movie right here? 457 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 6: You kidding? Meet? 458 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 4: Like Netflix representatives are gonna be there. We're gonna have 459 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 4: like Lifetime representatives. The Scouts are gonna be there from Lifetime. 460 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 4: What a story, huh you have? Daniel Jones go down 461 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 4: and by the way, injuries are the worst in sports man. 462 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 4: I feel so bad for Daniel Jones and his achilles injury. 463 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 4: Think of the money that that injury costs him potentially 464 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 4: where he's in line. The Colts make this blockbuster trade 465 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 4: for Sauce Gardner. They trade two first round picks away. 466 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 4: Give if they're going quarterback shopping, those two first round 467 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 4: picks are highly valuable. They're like, nope, give them away, 468 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 4: let's get Sauce. And they were absolutely hitching their wagon 469 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 4: to Daniel Jones going forward as well. That's what it 470 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 4: indicates with that trade of Sauce Gardner. And now he's 471 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 4: hurt with that achilles injury, and we'll see what happens 472 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 4: with him contractually. There's a lot of speculation, but for 473 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 4: the here and now, it meant that Philip Rivers got 474 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 4: a phone call. He's unretiring and rejoining the Colts, and 475 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 4: he's expected to start tomorrow against a nasty Seahawks defense. 476 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 4: This is unbelievable, man. But what a story. 477 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, it does feel like a movie, and I do 478 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 5: agree with you. I think Lifetime, Disney somebody is gonna 479 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 5: be on the sideline. So the stans trying to wait 480 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 5: for Philip Rivers after the game to get them to 481 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 5: sign the rights to the story being made into a screenplay, 482 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 5: because I mean, like everything about this is is kind 483 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 5: of picture picturesque. If he ends up, you know, following 484 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 5: through with this look, the biggest concern obviously is his health. 485 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 5: This is a violent game played by violent people, and 486 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 5: if I'm a defensive coordinator, my plan is to hit 487 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 5: Philip early and hit him hard. I mean that is 488 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 5: that is the reality of playing a contact sport. If 489 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 5: you're a boxer and you're preparing for a title fight 490 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 5: and you're thinking to yourself, like, what is the best 491 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 5: way to rattle my opponent's cage, and if your corner 492 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 5: comes up with the plan, the fight plan. Hey, we're 493 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 5: gonna we're gonna pop them early. We're we're gonna try 494 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 5: to make sure we we sneak one under his chin early. 495 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 5: We're gonna test his chin. We're gonna find out if 496 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 5: he could stand on his two feet for ten rounds 497 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 5: with the champ Let's go. That's exactly what I'd do 498 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 5: with Philip Rivers. I'd find out if he can hack 499 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 5: it still. Uh So I'd be I'd be sending people 500 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 5: to get in there and hit him and and and 501 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 5: rough them up a little bit. So he's thinking about 502 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 5: who's in the pocket with him outside of that, which 503 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 5: is something I'm worried about, honestly, is the personal side 504 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 5: to this, which is he's a former teammate of mine 505 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 5: and my favorite teammate of all time. Philip Rivers is 506 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 5: an incredible human being. He is a family man. He 507 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 5: is one of the most knowledgeable football players I've ever 508 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 5: played with. He's he's certainly talented, and and I have 509 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 5: no concerns that he's gonna be able to throw the football. 510 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 5: Like I said, my only concern is his health coming 511 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 5: through an NFL football game at forty four years old 512 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 5: after a five year layoff. But in terms of him 513 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 5: being good for this team from a leadership standpoint or 514 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 5: from a football IQ or an emotional intelligence IQ with 515 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 5: a playoff push happening, I have no concerns about that. 516 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 5: This this guy is football. Philip Rivers is football. So from 517 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 5: that standpoint, the Colts made an excellent selection bringing him in. 518 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 3: I do have concerns, though, Yeah, I think I agree 519 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 3: with you on that. So I went back and I 520 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 3: was like, let me just look up some of the 521 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 3: stats from the end of his career and I kept 522 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 3: looking at, you know, twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen with the Chargers, 523 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 3: last two years there, and then he had that one 524 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: year with the Colts, and I'm like, only sixteen games, 525 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 3: Like did he miss a start? Now, it's been so 526 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 3: long that that the NFL was only a sixteen game 527 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 3: schedule back then, So like, that's that's how long it's 528 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 3: been since Philip Rivers has been in the league. The 529 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 3: numbers were really good his last year in Indie, and 530 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 3: I think that, like, let's start there. Why is this happening? Well, 531 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 3: it's because he has a really good relationship with Shane 532 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 3: Steichen and he knows that system really well. I think 533 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 3: I read somewhere that the high school he coaches at 534 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 3: runs the same system. So it just it was like 535 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 3: an easy transition where they were in desperate need of help. 536 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 3: There were other court I'm sure there were other quarterbacks 537 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 3: they called. I'm sure they did their due diligence on 538 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 3: several other quarterbacks. But the verbiage in the NFL is 539 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 3: so dense it's hard to learn it in a week, 540 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 3: Like you've got to be a Rhodes scholar to pick 541 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 3: up an offense in a week. So it really was 542 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 3: the only option if Riley Leonard wasn't the guy. And 543 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 3: I think that's the more intriguing question here is it's 544 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 3: not why Philip Rivers, it's why not Riley Leonard? Because 545 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 3: he's been in the system the whole year and he's 546 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 3: a backup and they drafted him. It's not just like 547 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 3: some kid off the street like they drafted him. And 548 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 3: I hope it's injury and not you just can't play, 549 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 3: because that would be unfortunate the concerns that Rich shared 550 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 3: about Rivers. Let me just go on the record right now. 551 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 3: I love the story, but I think it's a terrible idea. 552 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 3: I think it's not gonna end well, I think it's 553 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 3: gonna end in unfortunate some kind of hit or some 554 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 3: kind of you know issue with him, you know, staying 555 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 3: in the pocket and actually making plays with his legs. 556 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 3: I heard it can still spin it. The arms the 557 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 3: last thing to go. Trust me as a former quarterback myself, 558 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 3: I'm not obviously an NFL quarterback. I can still throw 559 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 3: it really far. But man, if you ask me to 560 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 3: run or if I get hit, that's it. I'm done over, 561 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 3: forget it. I don't want to deal with any of that. 562 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 3: So I think that's where ri River's gonna have an issue. 563 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 3: Like he's gonna be able to throw it all over 564 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 3: the field. But what's the Mike Tyson line, Brian, Like, 565 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 3: you know, everyone's got a plan until they get punched 566 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 3: in the mouth. 567 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 6: Yeah. 568 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 3: I like that feels like the issue I think in 569 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 3: this situation. 570 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, fair enough, And let me pivot to another story, 571 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 4: which is pretty wild. How about Sharon Moore out at Michigan, 572 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 4: no longer the head coach at Michigan. The story is 573 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 4: he had an inappropriate intimate relationship with the staff member, 574 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 4: and you know she broke up with Sharon Moore, and 575 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 4: then the story after that, like he was fired four 576 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 4: cause because of this relationship, and then the next part 577 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 4: of the story was he apparently like broke into her place, 578 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 4: you know, was grabbing butter knives and threatening to take 579 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 4: his own life and you ruined my life and this 580 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 4: whole thing. He got arrested for that. So that's a 581 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 4: whole other side issue. But no longer the head coach 582 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 4: at Michigan and after the whole coaching carousel really right, like, 583 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 4: so this is bad timing for Michigan. Obviously, it's a 584 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 4: terrible situation for Sharon Moore, the staff member. That's that's 585 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 4: a whole thing going on right there. But yeah, man, wow, 586 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 4: just a left turn where it's like he was fired 587 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 4: and it's like, wait a minute, what happened right there? 588 00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 4: And then you start to get the information, it's like, 589 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 4: oh man, this is not good whatsoever. But Michigan's looking 590 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 4: for a new head coach as we speak right now. 591 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, he took a bad situation and he made it 592 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 5: so much worse with his actions after his firing. It's 593 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 5: it's really one of those stories where if you can't 594 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 5: handle the repercussions of a decision. 595 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 6: Don't make that decision, and. 596 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 5: He obviously, whether it was over more about this story 597 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 5: obviously will come out, and so it's so difficult to 598 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 5: talk about ongoing investigations. But if everything that's been alleged 599 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 5: is true, and we're still in the allegedly phase, but 600 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 5: if he in fact had an inappropriate relationship with this 601 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 5: staffer and it stemmed over a long time, it means 602 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 5: he didn't make a decision in a vacuum. He made 603 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 5: a decision over months and months and potentially years where 604 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 5: he was, you know, turning his back on his wife. 605 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 5: And obviously there was workplace misconduct happening because you're not 606 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 5: allowed to sleep with one of your staffers your subordinates, 607 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 5: like obviously that's strictly forbidden at most workplaces. So he 608 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 5: knew he was doing something wrong. And then on top 609 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 5: of it, yeah, you can, you can blame whoever you want, 610 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 5: but essentially, you made the decision to end your relationship 611 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 5: with your wife, to destroy your your workplace environment and 612 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 5: lose your job, to make matters worse by not accepting 613 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 5: the accountability of your actions, and then to commit assault 614 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 5: on the person who you were in this relationship with. 615 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 5: This side relationship to your marriage. It's it's just a 616 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 5: It's what every football coach talks about in the United 617 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 5: States every single day on a practice field or in 618 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 5: a weight room, depending on what part of your season 619 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 5: you're in. It's accountability, you know, take accountability for your 620 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 5: own actions. Yeah, you're right, was party to this, but 621 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 5: it was your decision to do all of this too, 622 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 5: and so instead of blaming anybody else, hold the mirror up, 623 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 5: accept it like a man. You made a mistake, or 624 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 5: you made a series of really really inconscionable, unconscionable mistakes, 625 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 5: and you just got to own up to it and 626 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 5: move on. He made matters so much worse with the 627 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 5: alleged actions that followed the firing. 628 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 6: So yeah, I moving on. 629 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 5: I honestly, I wish the best for his family as 630 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 5: they move forward, because you know, a bunch of kids 631 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 5: just I mean, had their whole family life blown up 632 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 5: in front of their eyes publicly, and that's horrible. I 633 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 5: wish the best for his wife, and frankly, I hope 634 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 5: the best for the Michigan football program and the players 635 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 5: because they had nothing to do with this. This reminds 636 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 5: me a little bit obviously not the same. But when 637 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 5: scandal strikes a university like Penn State, it had the 638 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 5: football players have nothing to do with this, and they 639 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 5: are going to be some of the most affected by 640 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 5: the actions of their head coach. And so it's an 641 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 5: unfortunate story. And when you hire a head coach, obviously 642 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 5: you have higher expectations than those that Sharon Moore lived 643 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 5: up to, and it's it's a horrible situation. 644 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, if I was assigning blame in the scenario, I 645 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 3: probably go like ninety percent Charon Moore and like ten 646 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 3: percent her Like obviously she was a you know, consensual 647 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 3: party in it, and she was involved in it, but 648 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 3: he was the one in the position of power. He 649 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 3: allowed it to happen and continued to happen, like he 650 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 3: allowed that situation to fester for I don't know how long, 651 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 3: whoever would I don't want to speak on the on 652 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 3: the terms of the relationship. I have no idea how 653 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 3: long it went on for. But from what we're hearing 654 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 3: in the media from some reputable source is they had 655 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 3: an investigation about this in like the summer, and they 656 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 3: both denied it. And at that point, what can you 657 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 3: do if they both denied the relationship, you just move on. 658 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 3: But then later obviously it kind of bubbled over. I 659 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 3: guess this week, I hate what he did after. I 660 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 3: hate it, and I think it's just a classic case 661 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 3: of lack of accountability, like you just you can't blame her, 662 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 3: like I think, like the quote he used that was 663 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 3: used in the arraignment was you know, like she you know, 664 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 3: you ruined my life or whatever. No, like you ruined 665 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 3: your own life. Like that's to me the way that 666 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 3: I look at the story, like he allowed this situation 667 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 3: to happen, and he needs to take accountability for it. 668 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 3: And I think that's what will eventually happen once the 669 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 3: details of the of the case continue to emerge. 670 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 4: All right, that's Jared Smith FSR.

I want to get something on the books 700 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 3: where we could hopefully cash today. So let's look at 701 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 3: the Army Navy game. Because I'll be honest, I'm really 702 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 3: excited to watch this game. It's probably one of my 703 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 3: favorite games to watch all year, even though it won't 704 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 3: really have a huge impact on anything happening, you know, 705 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,720 Speaker 3: at the highest levels of college football. Boy is it fun. 706 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 3: And I'm gonna go to my guy, Blake Corbat. Last 707 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 3: year he had a massive game in this spot, and 708 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 3: I think he has another big game here, especially in 709 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,240 Speaker 3: the red zone, because when things get tight for Navy, 710 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 3: they spread it out a little bit, you know, in 711 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 3: between the twenties, but when things get tight in the 712 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 3: red zone, he is their go to guy. He scored 713 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 3: two touchdowns last year in this game. He's at four 714 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 3: multiple touchdown games this season, including a four touchdown game 715 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 3: against that BEU. So I'll give you a Blake Horvat 716 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 3: to score dose, right, go for dose. We're seeing those 717 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 3: in the dos Akis conversials all the time plus two 718 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,240 Speaker 3: thirty to get the parley platter started. 719 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 6: All right, well, I'm all bucked up for this LA Bowl. 720 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 5: Where you got Boise State taken on Washington the Huskies, 721 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 5: who's a better defense than Boise State has faced all 722 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 5: year long, and down the stretch they were stingy with 723 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 5: points that they allowed. However, Maddox Madson, who had an 724 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 5: unbelievable conference championship game, sealing it for his team in 725 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 5: the Mountain West to gain entrance to the LA Bowl. 726 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 5: His numbers at two hundred and five or it should 727 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 5: say two hundred point five passing yards. 728 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 6: I think that's too low. 729 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 5: Every game he was healthy for this season he eclipsed 730 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 5: that mark by at least fifty yards. He's been a 731 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 5: good all season, not great, but he's guts he I 732 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 5: think this team has an opportunity to win between the 733 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 5: twenties again, gonna be difficult to put the ball in 734 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 5: the end zone for the Broncos against the Husky defense, 735 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 5: but I think he'll get his yards. So give me 736 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 5: Maddox match in the Boise State quarterback over two hundred 737 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:19,959 Speaker 5: and a half yards on the day. 738 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 4: Alrighty, I'm gonna go with Navy. I'm gonna lay the 739 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 4: six and a half points, not the most difficult handicap 740 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 4: of all time. Army isn't good, not a good football team. 741 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 4: Navy's much better, much better this season. Now, listen in 742 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 4: Army Navy games, that doesn't mean everything, right. 743 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 6: This is as a. 744 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 4: Hotly contested of a rivalry as you can get, and 745 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 4: there have been many years where the much better team 746 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 4: lost to the much worse team. So I'm not under 747 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 4: some false impression that just because you know, the two 748 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 4: plus two equals four and that's the way it's gonna go. 749 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 4: And I mean, you can have some hairy moments here, 750 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,720 Speaker 4: but at the end of the day, I think Navy 751 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 4: is just that much better than Army. I think Army's 752 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 4: gonna have a hard time slowing down Navy. Army's defenses brutal. 753 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 4: So I'll lay the six and a half and go 754 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 4: with Navy in this one. Dude, Yeah, my dad was 755 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 4: in the Navy, right like you would diszone me if 756 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 4: I didn't go with Navy in this. 757 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 3: Wow, I didn't know, that's right. Yeah, you know you 758 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 3: can't pick Army in this spot like that, like you, 759 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 3: families get torn apart for stuff like that. 760 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,439 Speaker 6: I know this is a big deal. 761 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,360 Speaker 3: So I didn't get a boost today from Bettmgym. I 762 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 3: think next week we'll get a boost for the playoff games. 763 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 3: So if you do the SGP plus right, we're doing 764 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 3: a two leg SGP with Navy minus six and a 765 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 3: half play quarterback two plus touchdowns. That's slightly correlated, so 766 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 3: we're not getting as much juice. And then we throw 767 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 3: in Rich's prop on mats in over seven to one 768 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 3: plus seven O nine. It's still nice for again a 769 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 3: correlated two legger, and then you throw in the Matson 770 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 3: prop on top. So essentially it's like a two and 771 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 3: a half leg. 772 00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 4: Corla alrighty okay, coming up next. When one of the 773 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 4: best salesmen of all time has a hard time selling this, 774 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:09,240 Speaker 4: it's a little telling. Oh what is going on? Happy 775 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,439 Speaker 4: Saturday to you. I hope things are going swimmingly so far. 776 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 4: We will get to one of the best rivalries in 777 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 4: sports in just a minute. But first, every goal starts 778 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 4: with an assist on and off the field. That's why 779 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 4: Haleyon and US Soccer are launching for the Assist, a 780 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 4: celebration of everyday acts of support that help people achieve 781 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:34,320 Speaker 4: their goals with iconic brands like Sentidine, Toms, Voltaan, Advil, 782 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 4: and Centrum. To learn more, go to haileyonassist dot com. 783 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:39,959 Speaker 6: All right, so. 784 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 4: One of my buddies, Jay, back home in South Bend, 785 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 4: he sent me something a couple of weeks ago and 786 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 4: he was like, this is not political, all right, This 787 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 4: was the like the you prefaced it. This is not political, 788 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 4: but I think it's hilarious. And so it was President 789 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 4: Donald Trump and he was talking about an MRO and 790 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,760 Speaker 4: it's important because we're gonna get to the Army Navy 791 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 4: game in a second. So listen to to President Donald 792 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 4: Trump selling this MRI that he had. Now he's on 793 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 4: a plane. There's background noise, but you'll be able to 794 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 4: hear what he says. Check this out, very short SoundBite. 795 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,359 Speaker 1: The doctor said it was the best result he has 796 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:23,439 Speaker 1: ever seen as a doctor, the. 797 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 4: Best result ever. That's our running joke. Now, like this 798 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,839 Speaker 4: MRIs happened in sports all the time. If it's like, hey, 799 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 4: Justin Herbert's gonna have an MRI on Monday or whomever, 800 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 4: we're gonna be like, well, hopefully it's the second best 801 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 4: result ever, because we know who has the best result 802 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 4: of all time. We know, so great salesman, you know, 803 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 4: say what you will, but great salesman. This is President 804 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 4: Donald Trump at the Army Navy game a handful of 805 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 4: years ago. Listen to what he says about it. 806 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know if it's necessarily the best football, 807 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 8: but it's very good. 808 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 6: But boy do they have spirit. 809 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 4: Wow, that's the sales pitch right again. We went from 810 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 4: the best results MRI ever to like, I don't know 811 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:11,840 Speaker 4: if it's the best football that it is unbelievable to me. 812 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 4: But in any event, it's Army Navy today. And what 813 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:19,719 Speaker 4: he said is accurate. It's not the greatest brand of football. 814 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 4: But you talk about scratching and clawing and pride and 815 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 4: all of that. Like, I love the Army Navy game 816 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,359 Speaker 4: every single year, and Navy is by far the better 817 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 4: football team in this matchup. But as I said in 818 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 4: the parlay platter, that doesn't mean everything. A lot of 819 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 4: years the worst team wins. So we'll see if the 820 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 4: Black Knights can give Navy a game today. But man, 821 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 4: Army's defense is rough. They're gonna have a rough time today. 822 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. 823 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, Army, especially against the run, really really struggles this year, 824 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 5: so Navy almost a touchdown favorite in this game heading in, 825 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 5: I think their plan is gonna be to really try 826 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 5: to control the line of scrimmage and see how far 827 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 5: their run game can take them. Although then you look 828 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 5: at Blake har Horvav. You know it's his last ride 829 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 5: with the midshipman, so I'm sure they're going to try 830 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 5: to get his two. Yeah, this comes down to Armies defense. 831 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 5: Can they stop the run at all? They really are 832 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 5: one of the bottom dwellers when you look at some 833 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,320 Speaker 5: of the advanced analytics with their their run stuffing rates 834 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 5: and things of that nature. 835 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,479 Speaker 6: Can they stop the football at. 836 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 5: All when Navy has the ball is going to be 837 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 5: the question if they can. This could actually turn into 838 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 5: an interesting game. My guess his Navy's going to buy 839 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 5: and large be able to do whatever they want. 840 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 6: Yeah. 841 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 3: This actually, honestly and not to you know, completely go 842 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 3: against our great President Trump, but I do think this 843 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:52,240 Speaker 3: football is better than maybe he expects, maybe the country expects. 844 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 3: Like these are two top thirty five Pro football focused 845 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,919 Speaker 3: great offenses. Like these teams can move it a little 846 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 3: bit now they do it in different ways. Bavy has 847 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 3: become more modern with their offense. Horvath can throw it 848 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 3: down the field and he's got a pretty decent receiver. 849 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 3: Heiden Reich's been a good weapon for them on the outside, 850 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 3: and I think he is You know, if you over 851 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 3: commit to the run, they will stretch you vertically, and 852 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 3: Army had that last year too with bryceon daily. Now 853 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,640 Speaker 3: this year, Army's offense is a little bit more ground 854 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 3: and pound. They went through a quarterback change mid season. 855 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 3: Dwayne Coleman battled injuries. Cal Hellams has done a really 856 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 3: good job coming in in relief. He's four and two 857 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,839 Speaker 3: as the starter. But they just run the heck out 858 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 3: of it. I mean, they've got the highest run rate 859 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 3: in college football over eighty percent, highest time of possession 860 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,919 Speaker 3: over thirty five minutes per game. They're actually a really 861 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,720 Speaker 3: good blocking team. Again, the advanced analytics do not paint 862 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 3: a picture of bad football. Will Jeffcoat, the left guard 863 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 3: for Army, is the highest rated guard in the entire 864 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 3: sport period, end of story. Like Ohio State, Indiana or 865 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 3: and all these other great offensive linemens. No, Will Jeffcoat 866 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 3: from Army highest graded garden the sport. So I do 867 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 3: think there is an opportunity for Army to move the 868 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 3: football if they can, you know, keep the ball in 869 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 3: their hands and own time of possession, which has been there. 870 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 3: That's been their vibe all year. So there's a couple 871 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 3: of weapons in this game. I actually think, right the 872 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 3: totals in the high thirties. We've seen totals in this 873 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 3: game in the high twenties over the last couple of years. 874 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 3: But the over has been doing pretty well usually as 875 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 3: an undergame. Brian right, sixteen three and once and so five. 876 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 3: We keep talking about under under our Army Navy. The 877 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:36,879 Speaker 3: overs two zero to one in the last three years 878 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,359 Speaker 3: we had the one push and then last year went 879 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,759 Speaker 3: way over. So this game does have a little bit 880 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 3: of a little bit of spark to it, I think 881 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:44,720 Speaker 3: on the offensive side. 882 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, the overtime over a couple of years ago, Yeah, 883 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 4: just brutal. I remember I was on the under in 884 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 4: that game and it was a slugfest the whole game. 885 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 4: It got to overtime and it was like touchdown, touchdown. 886 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 4: It's like, okay, all right, that's awesome. I'm like, what 887 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 4: just happened right here? But yeah, like, uh, listen, the 888 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 4: if you look at the prop numbers, very unconventional, right, 889 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 4: this is typically you never see this, but you will 890 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 4: see it in an Army Navy contest. So you have 891 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 4: Blake Horvath. His passing yards prop is at one ten 892 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 4: and a half. His rushing yards prop is at one 893 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 4: oh nine and a half, right, So that's like, okay, 894 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 4: that stands out a little bit. And then Army's quarterback 895 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 4: Cale Hellms sixty four and a half is his passing 896 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:33,280 Speaker 4: yardage prop and his rushing yardage prop is one thirteen 897 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:37,720 Speaker 4: and a half. So it's what it's double, almost not quite, 898 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 4: but in the neighborhood of being double the quarterbacks rushing 899 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 4: yardage prop compared to his passing yardage prop. So in 900 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five, that is not typically what you see. 901 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,919 Speaker 4: But that's why the total is interesting. Where you get 902 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 4: a bunch of running that clock is just going, going, going, going, going, 903 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 4: and you know you get a red zone stop. You know, 904 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 4: you force a field goal here, maybe it's close, I 905 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 4: would I would lean to the over, as Jared just 906 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 4: detailed right there, Army, like Rich said, Army has a 907 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 4: really hard time stopping the run and they're playing Navy, 908 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:18,399 Speaker 4: like this is the worst situation possible for that Black 909 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 4: Knight's defense man the Cadets, they're gonna have to pull 910 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,399 Speaker 4: a role reversal here today because they've been so bad 911 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,879 Speaker 4: against the rush. And that's all Navy does. I mean, 912 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 4: that's what they do the best job of. As Jared 913 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 4: just said, that's not only what they do, but that's 914 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,439 Speaker 4: their bread and butter is running the football. So Army, 915 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,399 Speaker 4: if they can't stop the run, it's gonna be a long, 916 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 4: long day. 917 00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 6: Yeah. 918 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 5: And I'll give you another reason why the over is 919 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 5: very alive in this game is the fact that I 920 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:51,840 Speaker 5: think this Navy nickel defense struggles tackling downfield, and Army, 921 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 5: especially if they're you know, trying to set things up 922 00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 5: with their run defense or excuse me, with their runrushing offense. 923 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 5: I could see them pop in a couple of play 924 00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:08,319 Speaker 5: action passes for some explosives downfield to get them within 925 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 5: the scoring range. And likewise, with Navy, like we outlined, 926 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 5: a hard time for Army stopping the run. They're an 927 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 5: explosive rushing offense. They run out of that twenty one 928 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 5: personnel and they not only can get the ball downfield 929 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:28,800 Speaker 5: in a hurry through the air, but they also they 930 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 5: have an explosive rushing attack, they kind of put your 931 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:37,319 Speaker 5: safeties in a bind where with their power schemes, their 932 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 5: gap schemes, they're going to get you one on one 933 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 5: with the last defender available to make a tackle, and 934 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 5: if you can make that man miss, you can rack 935 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,560 Speaker 5: off a twenty or thirty yard run. And we've seen 936 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 5: that multiple times for Navy. So I think between the 937 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 5: Army play action pass explosives, the poor tackling from Navy, 938 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,480 Speaker 5: and the opportunity for Navy to pop some big runs 939 00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 5: against this Army rushing defense that we've outlined being pretty 940 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 5: poor this season, Do I second that or third that 941 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 5: statement about the over being very much alive in this game. 942 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I think the context matters. Like there's been 943 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 3: some really low totals in this series over the years, 944 00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:27,240 Speaker 3: and that's why the over hasn't hit as much. Actually, 945 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 3: if you go back and you look at some of 946 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 3: the prior games, like in the early two thousands, the 947 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 3: total was super high. It was like in the forties 948 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 3: and the fifties, and then the unders happened and then 949 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 3: the totals crashed, and then over the last few years, right, 950 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 3: these totals were so low that they just almost had 951 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 3: to go like that. You couldn't stay under them because 952 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:44,840 Speaker 3: they were just so freaking low. Both teams really struggle 953 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 3: to tackle. Obviously, the run game is going to be huge. 954 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,959 Speaker 3: But if your Army and you look at the tape 955 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 3: from last year and you see Blake Corvath run for 956 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:57,719 Speaker 3: two hundred yards on twenty five carries. Wow, If I'm 957 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:04,440 Speaker 3: the Army defense, I am saying anybody but horrvaf abh 958 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 3: anybody but horrorvaf because you can't let him beat you. 959 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 3: That's why I actually think there might be some opportunities 960 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 3: to throw it in this game because Navy's not afraid 961 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 3: to throw it. Army doesn't want to throw Army again, 962 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:20,799 Speaker 3: eight out of ten plays eighty one percent run right, 963 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,800 Speaker 3: They're gonna They're gonna run it. So Army doesn't want 964 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 3: to throw it even if you give them looks to 965 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 3: throw it. Whereas Navy, if you take away quarterback run, 966 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,120 Speaker 3: which is you've got to, like, if you're the Army 967 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 3: defensive coordinator, like, just nobody, anybody but horror Bath can 968 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 3: beat me in this game. So you got to take 969 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 3: away that, and then maybe that opens up hiden Reich. 970 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 3: Maybe that opens up Teshka. I always mispronounced his name, 971 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 3: but that would be a guy that I would look 972 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 3: for in the prop market. I'll give you a I mean, 973 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 3: I've got to play this. Cale Helm's passing yards for ropets. 974 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 3: It's like the craziest number I've ever seen for a 975 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:56,879 Speaker 3: quarterback in an FBS game. 976 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 4: Will you're taking the over, You're going over sixty four 977 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 4: and a half, No, you're going under. 978 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 3: Nice. I can't bet an over on a passing yards 979 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 3: prop for a team that runs it on eight half 980 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 3: ten plays. 981 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:12,359 Speaker 4: I'm surprised that I was expecting more when you said eight, 982 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 4: I'm like, they throw it twice every ten time, Like wow, 983 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:17,920 Speaker 4: I thought it would be like like nine to one. 984 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 3: Well, to be fair, I think this. I don't know 985 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 3: if the sacks count. I guess they do because they're 986 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 3: technically rushes. Yeah, so like even yeah, like you maybe, 987 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 3: but also they only run like forty plays a game. 988 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 3: They only throw it like eight times a game. Like 989 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 3: this is such a small amount, but it is going 990 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 3: to be interesting to see how the Navy or excuse me, 991 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:43,120 Speaker 3: how the Army defense plays this. Because you cannot allow 992 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 3: horback to go for two hundred. That's the way to 993 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 3: lose thirty eight thirteen like they did last year. You 994 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 3: have got to make him give it on the quarterback 995 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:52,959 Speaker 3: gave right there, run that triple option. So you over 996 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 3: commit to the to the keep or you force him 997 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,920 Speaker 3: to throw it and you give him very heavy boxes 998 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 3: and that could be danger too, because then that sets 999 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 3: up the explosive. 1000 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 4: Poss Yeah, should be fun looking forward to it. 1001 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, but you're right. 1002 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,839 Speaker 4: If you let horvv go off, even if you let 1003 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 4: horvv be effective, it's death for your chances to win 1004 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:18,160 Speaker 4: the game. So what is it? ABH anybody but. 1005 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 3: Anybody but horrbite it? Maybe ABB anybody but Blake? 1006 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 4: Okay, I like that ABB for some reason, a little 1007 00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:28,880 Speaker 4: bit easier to remember. Yeah, I know it's sticks in 1008 00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 4: my memory a little bit more right there.

Come on, 1041 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 4: we got FCS playoff action going on here. But seriously, 1042 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:20,799 Speaker 4: is there anything today limited college football schedule right very light? 1043 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 4: Is there anything that bet MGM has a great need 1044 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 4: of happening today? 1045 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 2: Hey, guys, going to be back. It really does fall 1046 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 2: down to the Army Navy game every year this weekend, 1047 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 2: and it's pretty one way traffic on the Midshipman, So 1048 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 2: it feels like we're going to be needing Army this week. 1049 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 2: If we can get that out right, that would be huge. 1050 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be wild. I feel like every year 1051 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 3: we get this break shamous with the bowl games, and 1052 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 3: I think that gives you guys an opportunity to, you know, 1053 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 3: get your heads on straight. We have a bowl game today, 1054 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:00,440 Speaker 3: Like it just it seems like the schedule is just 1055 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,399 Speaker 3: so different this year, and I guess maybe last year 1056 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,200 Speaker 3: we started to go to a bit of a different 1057 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:07,279 Speaker 3: format with the schedule, where they moved around a lot 1058 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 3: of these traditional games, and they, you know, because the 1059 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:13,479 Speaker 3: CPP expanded. But is this the earliest bowl game you've 1060 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,040 Speaker 3: ever had to prepare for? 1061 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 2: This is sacrilege? 1062 00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:19,880 Speaker 1: What are we doing? 1063 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 2: How how is there a bowl game this day? Of 1064 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 2: Army Navy? In the travesty? What happened to the game? 1065 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 2: I love? But if you want to bet on the game, 1066 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 2: it is pretty balanced, it is, you know, it's handled 1067 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 2: starting to tick up a little bit here, slightly more 1068 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:44,360 Speaker 2: money on Washington minus ten here. But I can't imagine 1069 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,520 Speaker 2: this is a game where the book is I really 1070 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,239 Speaker 2: going to be like needing this side here under I 1071 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 2: guess would help. Just a lot of money that goes 1072 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 2: in on the over in these games. 1073 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:58,839 Speaker 5: All right, it feels like almost we had to talk 1074 00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:01,680 Speaker 5: a little college football with Seamous, you know, I mean 1075 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,920 Speaker 5: there's only two games playing though everybody's eyes are looking 1076 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 5: towards the weekend and Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts 1077 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 5: and what happens in Seattle. 1078 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,839 Speaker 6: How do you handicap a game like that? 1079 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 2: It's HiT's tough. You're dealing with the quarterback who hasn't 1080 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 2: played in since twenty twenty, the COVID season, and you 1081 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 2: have a Seahawks team at home. I mean, this is 1082 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 2: the recipe for disaster for the Colts, it would seem, 1083 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 2: but we have to see it's the Colts are I 1084 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 2: can already tell you They're gonna end up being one 1085 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,280 Speaker 2: of the biggest needs we'll have all week. It's constant 1086 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 2: money on the Seahawks today or this week. 1087 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 4: How about these these other big underdogs in the NFL 1088 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 4: shamous You got the Jets, they're like almost two touchdown underdogs. 1089 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 4: You've got the Raiders against Philly they're huge underdogs, as 1090 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 4: Rich said, the Colts big dogs, and the Titans on 1091 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 4: the road against the Niners. Any of those big dogs Raiders, Jets, Colts, 1092 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 4: Titans appeal to you. 1093 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 9: It's tough. 1094 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:15,440 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm biased, like maybe the Jets, Like are the 1095 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 2: Jags good enough to be laying double digits even against 1096 00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,600 Speaker 2: Brady Cook? But like what if Brady Cook is like 1097 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 2: not bad? It's only his first start. So if I 1098 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,320 Speaker 2: had to pick, I can't trust the Raiders with an 1099 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 2: early one o'clock game. Colts, if I'm getting Philip Rivers, 1100 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 2: no shot in Seattle and the Titans going west. Diners 1101 00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 2: need that game. It's tough. I mean, it's gonna we're 1102 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 2: gonna have a stunt. We're gonna need all four of 1103 00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 2: those dogs here because all of these teams are playing 1104 00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 2: for playoff positions, So a lot of better is like 1105 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 2: to load up on these teams who are, you know, 1106 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 2: trying to get into the playoffs and lock. 1107 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:53,640 Speaker 3: Some things up anything early with the CEE IF games 1108 00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 3: next week looks like the Bama Oklahoma Lin kind of 1109 00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 3: flipped a little bit, not surprised there after Bama, you know, 1110 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 3: kind of flamed out in the Sea. And I really 1111 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 3: think the most intriguing game might be that Miami A 1112 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 3: and M game. 1113 00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 2: Yeah really, I mean we're probably gonna end up needing 1114 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,960 Speaker 2: the big dogs to cover. Miami A and M. Is 1115 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 2: the only game right now that's been balanced action so far. 1116 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 8: Line has really even budged up three and a half, 1117 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 8: but it's been Ala has definitely been the most bet 1118 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 8: team we've had for next for these playoff games. 1119 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 2: So Oklahoma at home, we're gonna need a home dog, right. 1120 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,520 Speaker 2: I don't expect that need to change. I think that 1121 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a lot of money on Alabama come 1122 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 2: kick off. 1123 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 5: I was looking around Pro football for some totals and 1124 00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 5: I was I spotlighted the Lions visiting LA to face 1125 00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:48,920 Speaker 5: the Rams. A pretty good NFC battle there. Lion's obviously 1126 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,920 Speaker 5: trying to stay in playoff shape. Rams firmly seeded at 1127 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 5: this moment, maybe improving their lot with some more wins 1128 00:59:56,120 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 5: against NFC fos. The total set of fifty five, Uh, 1129 01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 5: that feels that feels high for this game, although I 1130 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 5: guess you know recently there's been a falloff with both 1131 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:10,960 Speaker 5: teams defense. What are your thoughts on the total on 1132 01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:11,400 Speaker 5: that one. 1133 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 2: I'm gonna need the under here, and uh, you know, 1134 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 2: I think the toll is high for a reason. I mean, 1135 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 2: even like since Dan Campbell's. 1136 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 8: Been calling these plays, I feel like they are starting 1137 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 8: to score a lot more points. 1138 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 2: Stafford's playing like an MVP. 1139 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 8: I mean, we're in a dome for golf, so we 1140 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:32,000 Speaker 8: don't have to worry about cold weather with him. 1141 01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 2: But it's definitely gonna be a game where you need 1142 01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 2: the under, where you need not the usual. 1143 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 8: Suspects to score a lot of touchdowns here, but definitely 1144 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:41,080 Speaker 8: gonna be a popular play. 1145 01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 4: All right, gives me great pleasure to roll out the 1146 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 4: red carpet for the Shamus special. I have no idea 1147 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 4: where you're taking us today. My hunch is maybe FCS related. 1148 01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:54,280 Speaker 4: What do you have for a shamist. 1149 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 2: I feel like we have to go to FCS. Yeah, 1150 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 2: we're gonna keep rolling with this Illinois State Redbird team. 1151 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, had the. 1152 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:06,320 Speaker 2: Big upset last week, only a short dog on the 1153 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 2: road at you see, Davis, Let's see if you can 1154 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 2: keep them mo mentally going. So Illinois State money line. 1155 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,920 Speaker 4: By the way, before you go, Seamus, one quick bonus 1156 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 4: question and uh, you know, I I hate to bring up, 1157 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 4: you know, bad results from last week, but I'm curious 1158 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 4: what you think with your Virginia Cavaliers going down. What 1159 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:30,040 Speaker 4: do you think happens with Miami? The committee Notre Dame. 1160 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 4: Do you think that affected anything? With Virginia losing and 1161 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 4: a five lost duke team winning the ACC championship, does 1162 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:40,880 Speaker 4: that have any effect with Miami maybe getting like a 1163 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:43,080 Speaker 4: slight boost and like we got to get an ACC 1164 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:43,880 Speaker 4: team in here. 1165 01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:51,960 Speaker 2: I think that probably helped. I really have We have 1166 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 2: all very hard time trying to convince anyone what the 1167 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:58,080 Speaker 2: committee is thinking, because I don't know what they're doing. 1168 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 9: Exactly, Like we did this crap with ned Dame being 1169 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:07,680 Speaker 9: ranked higher weeks and weeks and suddenly now okay, And 1170 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:11,000 Speaker 9: I'm actually not even mad about Miami and overname nerd name. 1171 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 2: I told you guys last week, I at Miami and 1172 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,520 Speaker 2: over nerd name in my field every week. Yeah, Alabama 1173 01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:20,640 Speaker 2: just not getting punished is an absolute joke. And the 1174 01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:23,120 Speaker 2: only team to lose the conference championship game and not 1175 01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 2: have at least one ranking fall. I just really did 1176 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 2: not understand the way they lost, Like I know, oh 1177 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 2: it's George, it's a good team. But you ran for 1178 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 2: minus three rushing yards. How do you do that? 1179 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:40,120 Speaker 4: Absolutely? Man, you're preaching the choir on that one. But 1180 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:44,040 Speaker 4: always appreciate your time. Seamous, good stuff today, good luck 1181 01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:44,919 Speaker 4: and we'll catch you soon. 1182 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:47,560 Speaker 3: Thanks guys, and jurding games you too. 1183 01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 6: There. 1184 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 4: He is Seamus McGee, team lead at sports Trading at BETMGM. 1185 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 4: Can I say one thing based on what Seamus said 1186 01:02:54,080 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 4: right there? Yes, can we eliminate going forward the playoffs? 1187 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 4: Right like even the morning of the morning of like 1188 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:07,920 Speaker 4: the the final selection selection Sunday, if you will, It 1189 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 4: was like the ESPN playoff predictor has Notre Dame in 1190 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 4: eighty five percent? And it's like, can we stop and 1191 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:19,160 Speaker 4: think about that for a second. It's is it twelve 1192 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 4: members right now? It's a twelve member playoff committee? Who 1193 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 4: knows what they're thinking, who knows why they're putting this 1194 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 4: team ahead of that team, and whatever their reasons are. 1195 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 4: These playoff predictors are ridiculous, like eighty five percent chance 1196 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,560 Speaker 4: to get in and Notre Dame's not in, and it's like, 1197 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,280 Speaker 4: why did you come up with eighty five percent? It's 1198 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 4: a twelve member committee. 1199 01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 3: It's crazy. 1200 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's again the same way the playoffs are made 1201 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:53,160 Speaker 5: for TV. So is the hype train behind theoffs and 1202 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 5: leading up to the playoffs and in lockstep with the playoffs. 1203 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 5: When when you have these predict or, these analysts who 1204 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 5: are coming on presuming to know something, you know, based 1205 01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:08,640 Speaker 5: off of one tidbit of information they heard from somebody 1206 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 5: who sits on the committee or knows somebody who sits 1207 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 5: on the committee. The truth is that morsel is about worth, 1208 01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 5: you know, the the the ounce of gold that's attached 1209 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:22,560 Speaker 5: to it, which is which is zero. It's I mean, 1210 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 5: it's there's nothing attached to it. It's all ethereal. You 1211 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:28,480 Speaker 5: have to have all these people in the room together 1212 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 5: to come up with either how they're going to really, frankly, 1213 01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 5: in my opinion, how they're going to pitch the selection 1214 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 5: committee's process in getting to the results that they get to, 1215 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 5: because that's the biggest strain here is with a straight face, 1216 01:04:45,600 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 5: to be able to face America and say, and here's 1217 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 5: the reason why your favorite team is factored out this year. 1218 01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:56,360 Speaker 5: And it's not a criteria that's based in reality. It 1219 01:04:56,840 --> 01:05:01,320 Speaker 5: is it is power rankings that are decided by individuals. 1220 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 5: It's all opinion based. So you know, like Seamus said, 1221 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 5: they're gonna be people who are absolutely aghast by the 1222 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:13,040 Speaker 5: fact that Alabama is in and they weren't punished for 1223 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:16,920 Speaker 5: their conference championship game showing. There's gonna be people who 1224 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 5: are pissed at Notre Dame's not in because they're a 1225 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 5: better team. 1226 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 6: Like, use your eyeballs, they're a better team than Miami. 1227 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 5: You know, who cares about the heads up win that 1228 01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:27,959 Speaker 5: was so long ago it feels like a different time. 1229 01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:31,040 Speaker 5: Now feels almost like a different season. But use your eyeballs, 1230 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 5: they're the better team. There's gonna be people like me 1231 01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:36,120 Speaker 5: who do not want to see James Madison take on 1232 01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:37,960 Speaker 5: Oregon because they're going to get. 1233 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 6: Dog walked by the Ducks. Because it's stupid. It's dumb. 1234 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 6: They don't stand a chance. Those two teams are playing 1235 01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:46,880 Speaker 6: a different sport. 1236 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 5: I'm sorry, James Madison has no business being in the postseason. 1237 01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:54,520 Speaker 5: I think it's cute. I think it's fun. I think 1238 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:57,520 Speaker 5: it's a little bit funny that we are doing this, 1239 01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 5: but it's it's they are going to get absolutely smoked. 1240 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 6: So I look, the reality of the college. 1241 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 5: Football Playoff is whatever you look at leading up to 1242 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:14,080 Speaker 5: the selection committee's decision is just more hyped for this train. 1243 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 5: And the louder you complain about it on social media 1244 01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 5: or the more gassed you are is a reaction, and 1245 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 5: they are looking for your reaction. 1246 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, tou Lane lost to UTSA by twenty two points, 1247 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,439 Speaker 3: and then of course the team that they're playing, oh 1248 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:35,800 Speaker 3: Miss by thirty five, and that is what it all 1249 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:37,880 Speaker 3: comes down to. I agree that they should have dropped Bama. 1250 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,440 Speaker 3: But even if they drop Bama, I think all reasonable 1251 01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:42,840 Speaker 3: mind's gonna agree Bama's a top twelve team in college football. 1252 01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 3: I think all reasonable mind's gonna agree. Notre Dame is 1253 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:47,480 Speaker 3: a top twelve team in college football, say so is Miami. 1254 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 3: They should all be in the playoff. I think the 1255 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 3: twelfth spot. You could make the case like maybe Vandy, 1256 01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 3: maybe BYU, Like that would be an interesting discussion. But 1257 01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:02,120 Speaker 3: we're not talking about those teams. We're talking This is 1258 01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 3: an Alan Iverson quote. We're talking about practice. We're talking 1259 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:09,000 Speaker 3: about too Lane, We're talking about JMU And it's the 1260 01:07:09,120 --> 01:07:14,120 Speaker 3: inclusivity stuff that is ruining this process. Now, the process 1261 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:18,400 Speaker 3: has other flaws as well, like that ranking show, which 1262 01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:22,840 Speaker 3: is it's politics. It is like the definition of politics. 1263 01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:27,880 Speaker 3: It has no actual value in the actual prediction or 1264 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 3: the selection process itself. It is just for show. It 1265 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 3: is a dog and pony show. That is part of 1266 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:39,720 Speaker 3: their agreement that ESBN gets the rights to this show 1267 01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 3: every week where they get to drop the rankings that 1268 01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 3: are completely meaningless. They get the rights to something that 1269 01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:51,560 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. They created it for content. Now, we do 1270 01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:54,400 Speaker 3: a lot of things for content, that's the nature of 1271 01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:58,760 Speaker 3: our business. But when you're dealing with the highest level 1272 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 3: of the sport who plays in the playoff, we should 1273 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 3: be a little bit more discerning about the content We 1274 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 3: put out. For example, the highest newsmakers in sports, the Schefters, 1275 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:18,760 Speaker 3: the rapaports is. Their social media accounts are nuclear weapons. 1276 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 3: They can drop bombs on markets if they say this 1277 01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 3: player is injured or this situation is this. They can 1278 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 3: move the market based off of what they tweet, based 1279 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:32,760 Speaker 3: off of their content. We need to have the same 1280 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:35,719 Speaker 3: level of discernment with these ranking shows and the listen. 1281 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:38,959 Speaker 3: We could argue for days about the process and the flaws. 1282 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,519 Speaker 3: At the end of the day, they didn't take the 1283 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,680 Speaker 3: top twelve teams. They took the top ten teams and 1284 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:46,640 Speaker 3: then the twentieth and the twenty fourth ranked team, And 1285 01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:49,200 Speaker 3: I think that to me is the root of the 1286 01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 3: problem we have with this selection process. 1287 01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 4: Well, the last thing I'll say is, you know what 1288 01:08:54,600 --> 01:08:58,160 Speaker 4: Jared said is correct. It's the definition of politics. And 1289 01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:02,560 Speaker 4: if you go back to BAM for a second, Alabama 1290 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 4: getting blasted in the SEC Championship game, like Seamus just said, 1291 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:08,559 Speaker 4: they should have dropped. 1292 01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:09,919 Speaker 3: The thing that's. 1293 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 4: Really lame about that if you put them in different 1294 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:17,920 Speaker 4: colored uniforms and called them Vanderbilt, there is no chance 1295 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:21,519 Speaker 4: they don't drop. You know what I'm saying, Like it's 1296 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:24,240 Speaker 4: it's so weird, how that How can that be a 1297 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:28,480 Speaker 4: thing if if you had instead of it's Bama, it's Vanderbilt, 1298 01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:32,880 Speaker 4: same exact resume. Everything is to a t and Vanderbilt 1299 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:35,559 Speaker 4: gets dropped, gets crushed the way that that that that 1300 01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:39,599 Speaker 4: Bama did in the SEC title game. Vanderbilt is absolutely dropping. 1301 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 4: Vanderbilt is probably dropping out of the playoff completely. But 1302 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 4: uh not Bama. Man there, they were hell bent on 1303 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 4: putting Bama in there. But we put that all to 1304 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:50,439 Speaker 4: the side. Let's get back to the futures over here. 1305 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:58,240 Speaker 4: Let's dive into this. It's the futures, all right, a 1306 01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 4: little college edition right here. Jared, you wanted to dive 1307 01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,479 Speaker 4: head first in the to these waters here, so we'll 1308 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:05,560 Speaker 4: let you lead this off with the cannonball. 1309 01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:06,960 Speaker 6: You know, well, I listaid. 1310 01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 3: I think at the end of the day, like obviously 1311 01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 3: we were very upset about the process and everything, but 1312 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:13,400 Speaker 3: we still get football, and we still get some pretty 1313 01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,559 Speaker 3: damn good games, and we'll get I think, a very 1314 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 3: intriguing bracket. Like when I looked at the bracket, because 1315 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 3: this is this is the one thing I like about 1316 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 3: the playoff is you get this kind of road, you 1317 01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,880 Speaker 3: get this path that you can dissect and try to 1318 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,680 Speaker 3: break down. And I think if you asked me, and 1319 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:31,720 Speaker 3: this is my opinion, I think, if you asked me 1320 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 3: if I would rather be on the top half or 1321 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:37,200 Speaker 3: the bottom back half of the bracket, I think it's 1322 01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 3: obvious to me that I would rather face Texas Tech 1323 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 3: in Indiana than Georgia and Ohio State. Like, if I'm 1324 01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:44,880 Speaker 3: one of the teams coming from the left side of 1325 01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:47,800 Speaker 3: the bracket, Bama, Oklahoma, Ole, Miss Miami A and m Like, 1326 01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:49,680 Speaker 3: we're gonna throw out Jami, We're gonna throw out too late. 1327 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:51,880 Speaker 3: But if I'm like trying to make a run like 1328 01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:54,080 Speaker 3: Ohio State did last year, which is playing the first 1329 01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 3: round and make a run all the way to the championship, 1330 01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:58,400 Speaker 3: I would rather be a top half team. I'd rather 1331 01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 3: be Oregon. I'd rather be Bama. I'd rather be Oklahoma 1332 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 3: because I'd rather face Indiana in the quarterfinals instead of 1333 01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 3: Georgia and Ohio State. That's just me. I'd rather face 1334 01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:10,320 Speaker 3: Baron Morton in Texas Tech than Georgia. Like, again, that's 1335 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 3: just my opinion. So I think Georgia to me is 1336 01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:17,519 Speaker 3: the most intriguing team of the quarterfinal group because I 1337 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:19,519 Speaker 3: think the thing I've noticed with Georgia this year is 1338 01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:23,360 Speaker 3: they've significantly improved week after week. And that team you 1339 01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:26,720 Speaker 3: saw beat down Bama over the weekend, that is a 1340 01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:29,519 Speaker 3: really good football team. And Gunner Stockton's playing at a 1341 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 3: very high level. He's a dude. So I think Georgia, 1342 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:34,120 Speaker 3: to me, being on the third rung, right, they're the 1343 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 3: third favorite in the field right now. The Big Ten 1344 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:39,720 Speaker 3: teams are getting all belove, but I think Georgia might 1345 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:42,080 Speaker 3: be the best team in this field top to bottom, 1346 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:45,719 Speaker 3: nose to toe's, mentality, physicality, all of it. So Georgia 1347 01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:47,519 Speaker 3: five to one is the bet I gave out this 1348 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:49,840 Speaker 3: week on the bet MGM Fox Sports Radio video, and 1349 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:52,080 Speaker 3: I think that's my pick right now to win the championship. 1350 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 5: I know that they're resting, and I understand that the 1351 01:11:58,560 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 5: last showing wasn't great rate, but I think a loss 1352 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:05,679 Speaker 5: in the Big Ten championship game was exactly what Ohio 1353 01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:10,639 Speaker 5: State needed. I think that with a team this good, 1354 01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:16,599 Speaker 5: rolling through opponents, taking the l where they they could 1355 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:20,479 Speaker 5: take it, it actually probably benefited them. 1356 01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 6: Now. 1357 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 5: I mean, we'll see, you have to play these games, 1358 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 5: just like Jared alluded to, but. 1359 01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:29,080 Speaker 6: You know, just just feeling feeling. 1360 01:12:30,160 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 5: My feeling didn't change very much on the other side 1361 01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:34,599 Speaker 5: of the Big Ten championship game, and. 1362 01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:35,400 Speaker 6: I thought it would. 1363 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,000 Speaker 5: I thought I would feel differently about Ohio State if 1364 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 5: they lost, depending on margin, depending on how they looked, 1365 01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:43,719 Speaker 5: and I thought they looked about as flat and about 1366 01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:46,879 Speaker 5: as bad as they possibly could in that game, especially 1367 01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 5: against Indiana, who I feel like if that game is 1368 01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:56,559 Speaker 5: played with a level of attention and ferocity that a like, 1369 01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,880 Speaker 5: for example, a playoff game would be played as opposed 1370 01:12:59,880 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 5: to championship game that neither team really needed. I think 1371 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 5: the results may have been different. I think emotionally, the 1372 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 5: investment wasn't there, and so that's that's the reason. 1373 01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:14,080 Speaker 6: But the embarrassment still, it still stings. 1374 01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:17,240 Speaker 5: So I believe Ohio State it's a better team than 1375 01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:21,120 Speaker 5: the last outing. I think that a week's rest to 1376 01:13:21,160 --> 01:13:25,320 Speaker 5: start the postseason is probably what the doctor ordered, literally 1377 01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 5: to lick your wounds a little bit and get ready 1378 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 5: for the action of the postseason once more. But I 1379 01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 5: also think that they are the best team left standing 1380 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:37,280 Speaker 5: and the only thing that can potentially hold them back 1381 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:40,680 Speaker 5: is the fact that they are starting a freshman quarterback, 1382 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:44,280 Speaker 5: and that is a heavy weight to toll when you 1383 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:46,839 Speaker 5: are a young man playing in some of the biggest 1384 01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 5: games you've ever played in in well, actually the biggest game. 1385 01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 5: Every next game is the biggest game he's ever played in. 1386 01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:56,960 Speaker 5: So it's going to be keeping him calm, keeping his 1387 01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 5: you know, keeping his his temperature low under the collar, 1388 01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:04,600 Speaker 5: keeping the heart rate low, and having him operate. But 1389 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 5: I do think Ohio State's most talented team left in 1390 01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:07,639 Speaker 5: this field. 1391 01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 4: I like the Dogs. You know, I've been on Georgia 1392 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,759 Speaker 4: for most of the season, and I love what Kirby 1393 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:16,880 Speaker 4: Smart said earlier in the year when they came back 1394 01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 4: and beat Ole Miss The. 1395 01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:20,000 Speaker 3: One thing we are we're hard to kill. 1396 01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 4: They are. They are absolutely hard to kill, and we're 1397 01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:25,800 Speaker 4: used to seeing them get off to bad starts and 1398 01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:29,200 Speaker 4: claw their way back. But they got off to a 1399 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:32,000 Speaker 4: great start against Alabama. So if that's a sign of 1400 01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:34,320 Speaker 4: things to come, If they can actually get out to 1401 01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:37,960 Speaker 4: good starts and they don't have to scratch and claw 1402 01:14:37,960 --> 01:14:40,120 Speaker 4: their way back, I think they're an even tougher out. 1403 01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:43,640 Speaker 4: So their defense is played a lot better. You know, 1404 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:47,840 Speaker 4: their past defense was real iffy throughout the first half 1405 01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:49,680 Speaker 4: of the season, I would say, but they've looked a 1406 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:53,639 Speaker 4: lot better lately. And listen, they can run the ball, 1407 01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:57,519 Speaker 4: they can stop the run. They play an aggressive just 1408 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:00,880 Speaker 4: they love to just fight you all. 1409 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:01,160 Speaker 6: Gay. 1410 01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 4: I love this Georgia team in terms of their their 1411 01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:08,000 Speaker 4: their mental makeup, and just how nasty of a team 1412 01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:10,559 Speaker 4: they are. That's what they are. They're They're fantastic in 1413 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,720 Speaker 4: that right, and I think that's what it's gonna take 1414 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 4: to win a championship this season. You have to have 1415 01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 4: that DNA, and Georgia certainly has it. They're not the 1416 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:21,439 Speaker 4: only team that has it, obviously. One other thing that 1417 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 4: catches my attention is the second round matchup would be 1418 01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:28,880 Speaker 4: Oregon at Texas Tech or versus Texas Tech. I should say, 1419 01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:32,160 Speaker 4: yeah and game And you look at the futures market, 1420 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,120 Speaker 4: Oregon is eight to one to win a championship. Texas 1421 01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 4: Tech is nine to one to win it. All it 1422 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 4: is is Oregon going to be favored against Texas Tech 1423 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:43,000 Speaker 4: on a neutral field? 1424 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:43,200 Speaker 6: Right? 1425 01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:45,519 Speaker 3: The market just doesn't like Texas Tech. I think the 1426 01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:47,680 Speaker 3: issue with Texas Tech is I don't trust Morton, but 1427 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:49,759 Speaker 3: that defensive line is a problem. 1428 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 4: They're so nasty, man problem, They're really really good man. Yeah, 1429 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:59,560 Speaker 4: that that front that front seven, I would say is really. 1430 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 3: Probably the best seven in the sport. I honestly think so. 1431 01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 3: I think Look, one thing that makes Texas Tech interesting 1432 01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 3: Texas Tech against Indiana, Mendoz was going to be running 1433 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:08,760 Speaker 3: for his life, right, that's the game. 1434 01:16:09,120 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 4: Well, and listen, we get that. You know Texas Tech, 1435 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:15,800 Speaker 4: all right, I'm sorry. Oregon kind of has a buy 1436 01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:20,599 Speaker 4: facing JMU at home, right, But injuries can happen. Injuries 1437 01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:23,280 Speaker 4: can happen in any football game. So the fact that 1438 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:27,120 Speaker 4: you know Oregon is playing a game before taking on 1439 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:30,640 Speaker 4: Texas Tech, should they beat JM, you kind of surprising 1440 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:33,120 Speaker 4: that Oregon has shorter odds to win. 1441 01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,120 Speaker 3: You might be right, Oregon might be favored in that game. 1442 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:36,720 Speaker 3: Is that is that the Rose Bowl? Is that the 1443 01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 3: Rose Bowl? 1444 01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:38,400 Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not sure. 1445 01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:41,000 Speaker 3: I know it's a West Coast game. I think yeah, 1446 01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:41,439 Speaker 3: it might be. 1447 01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:44,280 Speaker 4: I don't know.

We start with you with 1481 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:30,680 Speaker 4: something you like. 1482 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,679 Speaker 3: I mean, anytime I can bet a passing yards prop 1483 01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:37,120 Speaker 3: under sixty four and a half yards for an FBS 1484 01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:41,559 Speaker 3: quarterback with two arms and a full full game. This 1485 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:43,679 Speaker 3: is the first half prop. This is a full game 1486 01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:46,840 Speaker 3: prop for Cale hell under sixty four and a half 1487 01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:50,760 Speaker 3: passing art. Listen, Army's gonna run the heck out of 1488 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:52,559 Speaker 3: it today. I think they'll be behind in the game, 1489 01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 3: which doesn't bode well for a passing yard under. But 1490 01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:57,840 Speaker 3: I just look at this number and I say he's 1491 01:18:57,880 --> 01:18:59,760 Speaker 3: gone under this in I think four out of his 1492 01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:03,160 Speaker 3: six starts, and there's just not a lot of meat 1493 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 3: on the bone. So I'll say, hellum's under sixty four 1494 01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 3: and a half passing yards and we'll hope for one 1495 01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:10,400 Speaker 3: hundred percent run right from the Black Knights today. 1496 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:13,560 Speaker 6: All right, I'm back on the Broncos. 1497 01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:18,240 Speaker 5: This Washington Husky is first the Poise State Broncos La Bowl. 1498 01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:22,639 Speaker 5: I got Latrell Caples, top receiver for the Broncos this season, 1499 01:19:22,760 --> 01:19:25,960 Speaker 5: reeled in forty six receptions five hundred, five hundred and 1500 01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 5: forty seven yards. 1501 01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 6: Not incredibly. 1502 01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:35,800 Speaker 5: Eye popping statistically this season, but he's he's been competent, 1503 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:40,439 Speaker 5: and he is, without question, Mattick Mattson's favorite target. And 1504 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:42,559 Speaker 5: so if I'm going to take the overprop on Mattocks 1505 01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 5: Mattson like I did in the parlay platter, I'll take 1506 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:49,280 Speaker 5: his top receiver as well. So give me Latrell Caples 1507 01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,799 Speaker 5: for over forty two and a half yards receiving today. 1508 01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:55,919 Speaker 4: All right, I'm looking to the NFL tomorrow and Chris Purfett, 1509 01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:58,840 Speaker 4: our trusted technical producer, he might have to close his. 1510 01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 3: Ears for a second over here. 1511 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 4: Okay, oh boy, nothing personal whatsoever. And this is a 1512 01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:06,839 Speaker 4: high high number, what with good reason, I'm taking Matthew 1513 01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:10,759 Speaker 4: Stafford over two seventy nine and a half passing yards. 1514 01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:14,559 Speaker 4: This Lion's secondary is banged up. They're not good. 1515 01:20:14,600 --> 01:20:16,120 Speaker 3: There's no Bronch secondary. 1516 01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:17,600 Speaker 4: They don't have a secondary. 1517 01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:19,880 Speaker 3: Joseph is out for this weekend now too. 1518 01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:20,559 Speaker 6: There you go. 1519 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:23,719 Speaker 4: We got injuries. On top of the injuries, not good 1520 01:20:24,240 --> 01:20:29,160 Speaker 4: Stafford is gonna do unspeakable things, ny Secondary, It's gonna 1521 01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 4: be nasty.

So of this slate, right like, we've got 1544 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:44,920 Speaker 4: Alabama a fraudulent you know, fools gold Alabama against Oklahoma. 1545 01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:48,400 Speaker 4: That's on Friday evening, and then we get on Saturday 1546 01:21:48,439 --> 01:21:51,840 Speaker 4: the tripleheader Miami is at Texas A and m Tulane 1547 01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:56,040 Speaker 4: at Ole Miss. And then the nightcap is JMU twenty 1548 01:21:56,080 --> 01:21:59,720 Speaker 4: one and a half point underdogs against Oregon. So of 1549 01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:01,720 Speaker 4: those four games, what do you have your eye on 1550 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:02,600 Speaker 4: the most? 1551 01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:05,200 Speaker 6: Oklahoma Alabama? 1552 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:10,640 Speaker 5: Obviously the standalone I think is going to be easily 1553 01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 5: the most interesting of the weekend. There's so much that 1554 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:19,519 Speaker 5: went into Alabama making the postseed season, Notre Dame being 1555 01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:21,679 Speaker 5: left out in the cold. A lot of people say 1556 01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:24,799 Speaker 5: they shouldn't be because of the conference championship game loss, 1557 01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:28,080 Speaker 5: and I just think this is gonna be a battle. 1558 01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 5: How could it not be. It's going to be an 1559 01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:35,479 Speaker 5: absolute battle. We could get into the weeds of what 1560 01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:40,200 Speaker 5: you know, Oklahoma's defense and a dominant defensive unit at 1561 01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:43,759 Speaker 5: that is going to look like against this Bama offense 1562 01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:48,160 Speaker 5: in the postseason. But I mean, just from the standpoint 1563 01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:52,479 Speaker 5: of cinema, just from the standpoint of box office, which 1564 01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:54,759 Speaker 5: game am I most geared up for and excited about? 1565 01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:55,479 Speaker 6: It's that one. 1566 01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:56,479 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1567 01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 3: I went back and watched the first one this week, 1568 01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:01,679 Speaker 3: did a deep dive for it. I put a film 1569 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 3: study up on my YouTube page if anybody wants to 1570 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 3: watch it. And it was it was a lot about 1571 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:10,040 Speaker 3: communication and protection. I think those are the two most 1572 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:14,479 Speaker 3: important things in this game. When Oklahoma was in flow 1573 01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:16,599 Speaker 3: right this game was in Tuscaloosa, they were on the road. 1574 01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:19,720 Speaker 3: When Oklahoma's defense was in flow and they were communicating 1575 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:23,360 Speaker 3: and they were really putting pressure on ty Simpson, it 1576 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:26,160 Speaker 3: looked bad. For example, there was one play that I targeted, 1577 01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:28,040 Speaker 3: the pick six right, go back and watch the pick 1578 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:30,800 Speaker 3: six that ty Simpson threw. It was on the third 1579 01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 3: drive of the game. First two drives, Bama goes three 1580 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 3: and out, Oklahoma's defense is locked in third drive, Bama 1581 01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:38,760 Speaker 3: gets a little bit of rhythm going They're in and 1582 01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:41,040 Speaker 3: there it was like right outside the red zone, and 1583 01:23:41,240 --> 01:23:45,719 Speaker 3: they did a blitz scheme that through the Alabama offensive 1584 01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:49,080 Speaker 3: line through reloops so much so that Alabama on the 1585 01:23:49,120 --> 01:23:51,760 Speaker 3: pick six again, go watch it. It was an unblocked 1586 01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:54,840 Speaker 3: middle linebacker right through the A gap and Alabama had 1587 01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:58,360 Speaker 3: three offensive linemen blocking one defensive tackle and then the 1588 01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:01,120 Speaker 3: middle linebacker right through the A gap on blocked pressure 1589 01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:04,400 Speaker 3: on ty Simpson. Great job by the safety throwing Horton 1590 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 3: off his route. And then the pick six Apps and 1591 01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:08,920 Speaker 3: that was really the tone setter for the game. That's 1592 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:14,360 Speaker 3: what Brent Vennables does. He is a habitual liar. He 1593 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:17,000 Speaker 3: will show you cover one, flash to cover two. I'll 1594 01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:19,680 Speaker 3: have all these crazy, you know, schemes at the line 1595 01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:21,640 Speaker 3: of scrimmage where the linebackers will calm and then the 1596 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:25,160 Speaker 3: defensive lineman will drop into coverage. It is very hard 1597 01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:28,080 Speaker 3: to diagnose. And now Alabama has to do it on 1598 01:24:28,120 --> 01:24:32,439 Speaker 3: the road in Norman. Very difficult task. Now, maybe they 1599 01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 3: get back Jan Miller, maybe they're running games a little 1600 01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 3: bit more effective like it was in the first half 1601 01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:41,280 Speaker 3: against Auburn. But man, I just I really want to 1602 01:24:41,280 --> 01:24:43,680 Speaker 3: get to Bama on this game. Obviously I love Bama, right, 1603 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:47,439 Speaker 3: but when I look at Oklahoma's defense and I see 1604 01:24:47,479 --> 01:24:49,560 Speaker 3: what they're able to do with the line of scrimmage. 1605 01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:52,719 Speaker 3: It's tough, and then Mattier gets a little bit extra 1606 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,280 Speaker 3: time to heal that thumb. I think they're running games 1607 01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:57,400 Speaker 3: starting to come on a little bit with Blaylock, the 1608 01:24:57,439 --> 01:25:01,080 Speaker 3: freshman Oklahoma's I don't don't know if their offense has 1609 01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:03,479 Speaker 3: a really high ceiling, Brian, Like, I think twenty four 1610 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:06,479 Speaker 3: points is kind of their ceiling as an offense. But 1611 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:08,759 Speaker 3: that means you got to score twenty four against their defense, 1612 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:10,519 Speaker 3: which I think is a really tough thing to do. 1613 01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:11,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1614 01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:15,439 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And that's the thing is if you think about Bama, 1615 01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:20,360 Speaker 4: their offense has been discombobulated right the last couple of games. 1616 01:25:20,680 --> 01:25:23,639 Speaker 4: If you look at obviously they got dominated by Georgia 1617 01:25:23,800 --> 01:25:25,760 Speaker 4: in the SEC title game, but going back to that 1618 01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:28,960 Speaker 4: Auburn game, they got out gained by one hundred and 1619 01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,800 Speaker 4: thirty one yards against Auburn, Right like that, that's not 1620 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:35,800 Speaker 4: that's not good offense. Ryan Williams, I don't think he 1621 01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:38,840 Speaker 4: had a target that game. Right in the iron ball? 1622 01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:41,840 Speaker 4: How does Ryan Williams not get a target in the 1623 01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 4: iron Bullet's insane? But Ryan Williams has been on a 1624 01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:50,360 Speaker 4: milk carton for the last month. Plus And that's the 1625 01:25:50,439 --> 01:25:56,000 Speaker 4: thing is you're trying to get your discombobulated offense combobulated, 1626 01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:59,000 Speaker 4: right like against Oklahoma. That's a tough thing to do 1627 01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 4: against a really good defense. So good luck sorting out 1628 01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 4: all these offensive issues against a rock solid defense at 1629 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:11,679 Speaker 4: home in a playoff atmosphere. That is not gonna be easy. 1630 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:13,880 Speaker 4: But I do know one of two things has to 1631 01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:16,639 Speaker 4: happen for Baman to have a shot. It's you gotta 1632 01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 4: have a running game. You can't be running for minus 1633 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:21,400 Speaker 4: three yards. That's obvious. And the other thing is like 1634 01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:24,320 Speaker 4: ty Simpson's got to look like ty Simpson has looked 1635 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:29,240 Speaker 4: most of the year. Ty Simpson has been real skittish 1636 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 4: and a fish out of water when he's facing a 1637 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:35,840 Speaker 4: pass rush. I call him the college Jared Goff is 1638 01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:39,519 Speaker 4: what Ty Simpson has looked like against the pass rush lately, 1639 01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:43,040 Speaker 4: and he's been very inaccurate. I'm watching Ty Simpson. It's 1640 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:46,400 Speaker 4: like this dude has had pinpoint accuracy throughout most of 1641 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:49,320 Speaker 4: the season and that has vanished as of late. So 1642 01:26:49,439 --> 01:26:52,000 Speaker 4: one of two things has to happen for the Tide. 1643 01:26:52,080 --> 01:26:54,519 Speaker 4: You got to run the ball more effectively, or Ty 1644 01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:57,360 Speaker 4: Simpson has to revert back to good ty Simpson and 1645 01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:00,519 Speaker 4: not skittish can't do anything under pressure type Simpson. 1646 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:06,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean early thoughts on the Crimson tide. If 1647 01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:08,000 Speaker 5: they're going to have a chance at winning a national 1648 01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:11,760 Speaker 5: championship this year, there's no question they need to sure 1649 01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:13,720 Speaker 5: up their run game. 1650 01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:15,439 Speaker 6: There's no question they. 1651 01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:20,160 Speaker 5: Need to keep Tye Simpson on his feet and comfortable, 1652 01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:24,400 Speaker 5: and he obviously needs to settle into this massive role 1653 01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:29,200 Speaker 5: that he has in anchoring this Alabama offense. That's difficult 1654 01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 5: for a young, inexperienced quarterback to handle. This defense has 1655 01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 5: to play lights out like they haven't played all season long. 1656 01:27:37,520 --> 01:27:42,400 Speaker 5: They've played better at times, but they haven't been consistently. 1657 01:27:41,560 --> 01:27:43,679 Speaker 6: Great, even though they've got a lot of great players. 1658 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 5: I think if you look around that defensive roster, both 1659 01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:51,960 Speaker 5: for this upcoming season or I should say this upcoming 1660 01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:56,719 Speaker 5: draft in the NFL and an undrafted free agent class, 1661 01:27:56,960 --> 01:28:00,599 Speaker 5: but also years to come, Alabama's going to produce several 1662 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,080 Speaker 5: NFL players from this defense. However, having said all that, 1663 01:28:05,080 --> 01:28:09,640 Speaker 5: they're they're not the saban Alabama teams. They're They're not 1664 01:28:09,880 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 5: they've they're they This run game has been non existent 1665 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 5: at times, this defense even though it's a collection of 1666 01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:20,719 Speaker 5: great players, has not played very consistently. And I agree 1667 01:28:20,720 --> 01:28:23,560 Speaker 5: with your assessment on ty Simpson. I think he's unraveled 1668 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:26,040 Speaker 5: a little bit in the late season. So they're gonna 1669 01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:28,519 Speaker 5: have to play some of the best football at the 1670 01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:31,880 Speaker 5: most important time of the year to string together enough 1671 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 5: wins to win win the thing. In terms of against Oklahoma, 1672 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:39,800 Speaker 5: it is it's a it's a big it's a big 1673 01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 5: opening matchup. But it's tough to beat the same team twice. 1674 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:46,519 Speaker 5: So we'll see, we'll see what happens here. But but man, 1675 01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:49,439 Speaker 5: Bama's talented. This is gonna be a fun watch. I 1676 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,519 Speaker 5: either way, win or lose, it's gonna be a fun watch. 1677 01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, Bama's not playing Bama football. That's the issue right now. 1678 01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:58,200 Speaker 3: They're missing assignments up front, there's confusion at the line 1679 01:28:58,200 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 3: of scrimmage. They can't run at they're kind of soft. 1680 01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:02,360 Speaker 3: They played right into Georgia's hands last week. That's not 1681 01:29:02,439 --> 01:29:07,120 Speaker 3: Bama football, Like, that is not what Nick Saban preached 1682 01:29:07,439 --> 01:29:11,479 Speaker 3: for years. It's just it's sloppy. Now again, they get 1683 01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:14,200 Speaker 3: a little extra time off. They were without their best 1684 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:16,559 Speaker 3: I would say, not two best players, but definitely best 1685 01:29:16,560 --> 01:29:19,840 Speaker 3: defensive player, healthi Overton, who's a first round pick, and 1686 01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:23,320 Speaker 3: Jan Miller, who's their best runner. Like they need those 1687 01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:26,919 Speaker 3: two tone setters, and they need to get Ty Simpson, 1688 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:31,720 Speaker 3: as Brian alluded to, combobulated again, right, because it's just 1689 01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:35,760 Speaker 3: it's sloppy, like, it's just it's not the Bama. Like, 1690 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:39,240 Speaker 3: has there been a team this year that has shown 1691 01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:43,320 Speaker 3: you the absolute peak ceiling four consecutive wins over ranked 1692 01:29:43,320 --> 01:29:47,360 Speaker 3: teams and then the floor in basically back to back months. 1693 01:29:48,240 --> 01:29:50,960 Speaker 3: I think it's fair to say Bama peaked in October, 1694 01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:52,840 Speaker 3: but I also think you have to acknowledge that that 1695 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:56,080 Speaker 3: peak might be the highest peak we've seen for any 1696 01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 3: team all year. But the ceilings also pretty low. So 1697 01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 3: which team do we get? Because I'll make another bold 1698 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:05,200 Speaker 3: prediction here. The winner of this Oklahoma Bama games beaten 1699 01:30:05,240 --> 01:30:07,559 Speaker 3: Indiana in the in the Rose Bowl the following week. 1700 01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:13,320 Speaker 3: I honestly think that I think one of the teams 1701 01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:14,800 Speaker 3: that wins in the first round is gonna beat a 1702 01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:18,439 Speaker 3: quarterfinal team. It's gonna happen, So it's a matter of 1703 01:30:18,520 --> 01:30:22,800 Speaker 3: which team does it. I would say Bama's ceiling is 1704 01:30:22,800 --> 01:30:25,599 Speaker 3: a little bit higher than Oklahoma's. But I also think 1705 01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 3: Bama's floor is lower because their defense is not as 1706 01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:31,280 Speaker 3: good as local. Bama's defense, I think is very good, 1707 01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:33,600 Speaker 3: very unerrated. Oklahoma might have the best defense in the 1708 01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:36,639 Speaker 3: country because of their scheme and because of the confusion 1709 01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:38,200 Speaker 3: they call it with the line of scrimmage. I do 1710 01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:39,920 Speaker 3: want to give Miami and A and m some love. 1711 01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:41,760 Speaker 3: Right the other two games, I think we kind of 1712 01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:43,519 Speaker 3: are pushing to the side, like we kind of know 1713 01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:46,880 Speaker 3: what the results are. I want to give Miami some love. 1714 01:30:47,160 --> 01:30:50,680 Speaker 3: I really do. I think Malachai Tony might be my 1715 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:54,920 Speaker 3: favorite player in college football. Go back and watch the 1716 01:30:54,960 --> 01:30:55,800 Speaker 3: tape against Pitt. 1717 01:30:55,840 --> 01:30:57,200 Speaker 6: This dude threw a. 1718 01:30:57,040 --> 01:31:00,960 Speaker 3: Touchdown pass, ran for a bunch of y'all cards. Obviously 1719 01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:03,719 Speaker 3: we know he's great in the receiving game. I don't 1720 01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:06,160 Speaker 3: think there's a player in college football that I've watched 1721 01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:09,880 Speaker 3: this year that plays with a higher energy level. Like 1722 01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:14,320 Speaker 3: he plays the game like there is no stamina at all, 1723 01:31:14,360 --> 01:31:16,320 Speaker 3: Like it's just it's like a video game, Like he 1724 01:31:16,400 --> 01:31:20,080 Speaker 3: just has unlimited stamina. Like even when he's not a 1725 01:31:20,160 --> 01:31:22,439 Speaker 3: play is not designed for him, he still plays with 1726 01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:26,720 Speaker 3: just the utmost level of fire and energy. So I'm 1727 01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:28,439 Speaker 3: excited to watch him go on the road and play 1728 01:31:28,439 --> 01:31:30,160 Speaker 3: a really good A and M defense and see how 1729 01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:32,479 Speaker 3: he handles Mike elchoing out Carson Beck and that offense 1730 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,760 Speaker 3: handles things. I think I'll give the slight edge to 1731 01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:37,919 Speaker 3: A and M in that game. But I think Malachi 1732 01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,719 Speaker 3: Tony is the best player on the field as a freshman. 1733 01:31:40,800 --> 01:31:43,800 Speaker 3: Like this kid might win Heisman next year. Honestly, He's 1734 01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:46,439 Speaker 3: very exciting and I'm really interested to see how he 1735 01:31:46,479 --> 01:31:47,679 Speaker 3: performs on the big stage. 1736 01:31:48,160 --> 01:31:52,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm really interesting interested to see Carson Beck. You know, 1737 01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:55,519 Speaker 4: is this good Carson Beck? Is this bad Carson Beck? 1738 01:31:55,640 --> 01:31:59,160 Speaker 4: Because if this is bad Carson Beck, forget it. You know, 1739 01:31:59,439 --> 01:32:02,840 Speaker 4: I'm not talking like four interception Carson Beck against Louisville. 1740 01:32:03,240 --> 01:32:06,920 Speaker 4: I'm just talking like, you know, maybe two interception Carson 1741 01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:09,080 Speaker 4: Beck against Louisville, you know, right, like that, not the 1742 01:32:09,120 --> 01:32:11,800 Speaker 4: full version, but like a limited even that's gonna be 1743 01:32:12,200 --> 01:32:15,000 Speaker 4: a big, big deal in this game. So can he play? 1744 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:18,480 Speaker 4: Can he avoid the big mistakes? Can he protect the football? 1745 01:32:19,360 --> 01:32:22,559 Speaker 4: I think that's really important in this matchup obviously, And 1746 01:32:23,479 --> 01:32:25,880 Speaker 4: I also look at Miami in the trenches. You know, 1747 01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:29,280 Speaker 4: we all know that Miami the pass rush is there. 1748 01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:35,720 Speaker 4: They got NFL dudes, Bain is bringing it. Can they 1749 01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:39,280 Speaker 4: offensively just really dictate things. We've seen Texas A and 1750 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:43,400 Speaker 4: M struggle stopping the rush many times this season. Can 1751 01:32:43,439 --> 01:32:46,759 Speaker 4: Miami with that great offensive line, can they just start 1752 01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:49,080 Speaker 4: shoving them around a little bit? Can they really win 1753 01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:51,679 Speaker 4: the battle in the trenches and go from there? Maybe 1754 01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:54,240 Speaker 4: you can hide Carson Beck a little bit if you're 1755 01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:56,880 Speaker 4: able to run the ball really effectively against A and 1756 01:32:57,000 --> 01:32:59,640 Speaker 4: M's I'm interested in that matchup Man nine am on 1757 01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:03,520 Speaker 4: the West Coast. We get it started right away on Saturday, 1758 01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:07,599 Speaker 4: and we'll preview that one obviously next next Saturday show. 1759 01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:13,000 Speaker 4: So we got the Alabama Oklahoma review on next week's show. Yeah, 1760 01:33:13,040 --> 01:33:16,040 Speaker 4: and then we've got basically Miami and Texas A and 1761 01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:19,439 Speaker 4: M like pregame show for a couple of hours because 1762 01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:22,400 Speaker 4: we're not gonna talk much about Tulane and James Madison, 1763 01:33:22,520 --> 01:33:23,800 Speaker 4: right Like, that's the way it's gonna go. 1764 01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:25,280 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1765 01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:29,600 Speaker 5: I think the match up here for yeah, Yeah, for 1766 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:34,519 Speaker 5: Miami is going to be how their defense performs against 1767 01:33:34,600 --> 01:33:38,400 Speaker 5: this Texas A and M offense, who's one of the 1768 01:33:38,439 --> 01:33:40,840 Speaker 5: top teams in the country top thirty teams in the 1769 01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:46,519 Speaker 5: country passing the football Top twenty rushing the football. Marcel 1770 01:33:46,600 --> 01:33:50,760 Speaker 5: Reid obviously a true dual threat. You're gonna have to 1771 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:54,400 Speaker 5: cause disruption if you're going to win this football game. 1772 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:59,640 Speaker 5: Miami's got to concentrate on getting upfield and putting blockers 1773 01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:02,439 Speaker 5: on differ levels in the run game and getting to 1774 01:34:02,520 --> 01:34:05,840 Speaker 5: read when he decides to throw it. And against this 1775 01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:08,960 Speaker 5: A and m Aggie's offense, the play action pass is 1776 01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:12,320 Speaker 5: very much so alive, and it can fool you, and 1777 01:34:12,360 --> 01:34:14,920 Speaker 5: they can lull you into a false sense of confidence 1778 01:34:14,960 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 5: that you are hustling downhill to stop the run, and 1779 01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:19,759 Speaker 5: then they can pop a big one over your head. 1780 01:34:20,200 --> 01:34:22,040 Speaker 6: And it doesn't have to be a big throw like 1781 01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:22,880 Speaker 6: a deep throw. 1782 01:34:22,920 --> 01:34:27,160 Speaker 5: It can be a seven yard game through the air 1783 01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:30,759 Speaker 5: in terms of air yards completed, and then it's yards 1784 01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:34,759 Speaker 5: after catch and making one man miss down the field 1785 01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 5: can lead to a huge play for the Aggies in 1786 01:34:37,040 --> 01:34:37,439 Speaker 5: this one. 1787 01:34:37,560 --> 01:34:38,920 Speaker 6: So I think that's the. 1788 01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 5: Game within the game to watch is how Miami decides 1789 01:34:44,320 --> 01:34:49,280 Speaker 5: to attack this Aggie's offense, because defensively, I feel like 1790 01:34:49,320 --> 01:34:50,120 Speaker 5: they're outmatched. 1791 01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 6: But you can win which scheme you absolutely. 1792 01:34:52,479 --> 01:34:54,639 Speaker 5: Can, And they had some time to think about how 1793 01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:57,960 Speaker 5: they'd like to attack their opponent. Even though they were 1794 01:34:57,960 --> 01:34:59,800 Speaker 5: waiting to see which one they were going to get, 1795 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:03,080 Speaker 5: they had they had an idea of what teams they 1796 01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:06,000 Speaker 5: could potentially be scheduled again, So I'm very curious to 1797 01:35:06,040 --> 01:35:09,719 Speaker 5: see how Miami's defense prepares for this Agis or has 1798 01:35:09,760 --> 01:35:12,040 Speaker 5: prepared for this Agis offense. 1799 01:35:12,520 --> 01:35:14,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I get the vibe this could be a higher 1800 01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:16,360 Speaker 3: scoring game. I think both of the I think when 1801 01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:18,760 Speaker 3: you look at Miami and Notre Dame, like I know 1802 01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:21,080 Speaker 3: that was a big discussion, I think both of those 1803 01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:26,080 Speaker 3: teams have improved dramatically since that first game. I honestly do. 1804 01:35:27,600 --> 01:35:32,760 Speaker 3: Girard Pringle another freshman. Miami's got two freshmen. Tony who 1805 01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:34,920 Speaker 3: I again, I think he's my favorite player of the 1806 01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:36,679 Speaker 3: country right now based off of the I went back 1807 01:35:36,680 --> 01:35:39,240 Speaker 3: and I really dug into that pit game and he 1808 01:35:39,520 --> 01:35:42,639 Speaker 3: was freaking unbelievable in that game against Bit a couple 1809 01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:46,400 Speaker 3: of weeks ago. But Gerard Pringle, freshman running back. Again. 1810 01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:49,200 Speaker 3: We know about Mark Fletcher, who's a big, physical back 1811 01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 3: six two two twenty five bruisers, probably closer to two forty, 1812 01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:55,559 Speaker 3: but Pringle a little bit lighter, five to eleven point 1813 01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:58,439 Speaker 3: eighty more of a burner. So now Miami has got 1814 01:35:58,680 --> 01:36:02,280 Speaker 3: two really good back and again, Pringle at the beginning 1815 01:36:02,280 --> 01:36:04,559 Speaker 3: of the year wasn't even he was an afterthought, wasn't 1816 01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:09,040 Speaker 3: even getting playing time. But in college football, freshmen tend 1817 01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:11,080 Speaker 3: to become sophomores by the end of the year. So 1818 01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:15,519 Speaker 3: this Pringle kid, Now you've got the lightning, and then 1819 01:36:15,520 --> 01:36:17,840 Speaker 3: you've got thunder with Fletcher and then Tony who just 1820 01:36:17,880 --> 01:36:20,880 Speaker 3: does everything. We know how good Miami's offensive line is. 1821 01:36:20,920 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 3: I think they've got three offensive linemen that are gonna 1822 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,639 Speaker 3: be drafted in the first three rounds. The left tackle 1823 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:28,439 Speaker 3: Bell as a monster, Myoga is probably the best right 1824 01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:30,280 Speaker 3: tackle in the sport. He's a first round pick. And 1825 01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:33,960 Speaker 3: I love the center, Brockermeyer. I kind of think, I 1826 01:36:34,040 --> 01:36:35,920 Speaker 3: kind of think Miami might be my bet here in 1827 01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:37,719 Speaker 3: this one. I think I'm catching three and a half. 1828 01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 3: Carson Beck's got the experience. He's got significantly more experience 1829 01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:43,880 Speaker 3: in these types of games than the other quarterback on 1830 01:36:43,920 --> 01:36:46,240 Speaker 3: the other side, Marcel Reed, who's had a fantastic year, 1831 01:36:46,240 --> 01:36:48,920 Speaker 3: but we've seen his play kind of be a little 1832 01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:51,639 Speaker 3: more inconsistent at times. Right at the crazy comeback against 1833 01:36:51,680 --> 01:36:54,040 Speaker 3: South Carolina. They needed every ounce of that one. I 1834 01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:58,920 Speaker 3: could absolutely see Miami going into College Station being the 1835 01:36:59,000 --> 01:37:02,400 Speaker 3: more physical team. And Carson Beck, who throws a very 1836 01:37:02,439 --> 01:37:04,880 Speaker 3: catchable football. We know how good he is in rhythm, 1837 01:37:04,920 --> 01:37:08,360 Speaker 3: he stacks plays. They feel like, right like if I 1838 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:10,360 Speaker 3: was gonna, if I was gonna, you know, kind of 1839 01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:13,439 Speaker 3: gauge this on volatility. Brian Texas A and m I 1840 01:37:13,479 --> 01:37:16,040 Speaker 3: think has the much higher ceiling. But I think Miami's 1841 01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:18,960 Speaker 3: got the higher floor. I do because of their offensive 1842 01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:21,000 Speaker 3: line and because of their consistency at quarterback, and now 1843 01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:23,439 Speaker 3: they've got a dual threat running back. You got two 1844 01:37:23,439 --> 01:37:26,759 Speaker 3: headed running backs and Tony on the outside. It's a lot. 1845 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:29,720 Speaker 3: It's a lot to prepare for, and I kind of 1846 01:37:29,720 --> 01:37:31,759 Speaker 3: think Miami's where I'm leaning on this one. 1847 01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:32,840 Speaker 6: I don't hate it. 1848 01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:35,120 Speaker 4: I just I cannot trust Carson Beck. 1849 01:37:35,439 --> 01:37:37,960 Speaker 3: I know I can't trust crystaball. That's the problem. That's 1850 01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:40,880 Speaker 3: the problem. I keep having It's crystal ball. But they 1851 01:37:40,880 --> 01:37:43,000 Speaker 3: don't have to win, just cover by the way. 1852 01:37:43,320 --> 01:37:46,960 Speaker 4: It's just like twenty seconds here. Mini rants it's time 1853 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:50,960 Speaker 4: for our yearly. Mini rants on why does the bracket 1854 01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:53,639 Speaker 4: look the way it does In the college football playoffs. 1855 01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:57,120 Speaker 4: I'm so used to the college basketball bracket. The one 1856 01:37:57,160 --> 01:37:59,680 Speaker 4: seed is at the top, the two seed is at 1857 01:37:59,680 --> 01:38:00,320 Speaker 4: the bottom. 1858 01:38:00,400 --> 01:38:01,519 Speaker 3: Oh wow, I didn't men think of that. 1859 01:38:01,560 --> 01:38:04,519 Speaker 4: Why do we have this in college football? Second straight year? 1860 01:38:04,640 --> 01:38:07,320 Speaker 4: Four seed at the top and then it's the one seed. 1861 01:38:07,560 --> 01:38:09,280 Speaker 4: Why why? 1862 01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:11,040 Speaker 3: I don't even know. That doesn't make sense. They should 1863 01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:12,680 Speaker 3: have nine to eight at the top because that's the 1864 01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:13,360 Speaker 3: first game. 1865 01:38:13,640 --> 01:38:15,559 Speaker 4: Make any sense. Just put the one seat at the top. 1866 01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:18,200 Speaker 4: That's where we've looked at for years, and it's use 1867 01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:19,240 Speaker 4: we're used to seeing that. 1868 01:38:19,320 --> 01:38:21,280 Speaker 3: It looks like, why do they do that? I don't know, 1869 01:38:21,560 --> 01:38:22,080 Speaker 3: I don't. 1870 01:38:21,960 --> 01:38:23,120 Speaker 4: Know it makes those sense. 1871 01:38:23,200 --> 01:38:23,720 Speaker 6: It's really I. 1872 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:24,599 Speaker 3: Didn't even realize that. 1873 01:38:24,600 --> 01:38:27,479 Speaker 6: You just said. Honestly, they changed things up just to 1874 01:38:27,560 --> 01:38:29,280 Speaker 6: change them. It's like the two minute time. 1875 01:38:29,400 --> 01:38:30,599 Speaker 4: I was just gonna say it. 1876 01:38:30,600 --> 01:38:31,760 Speaker 3: It's exactly. 1877 01:38:32,960 --> 01:38:35,719 Speaker 6: Why we call it the two minute stoppage. You know what, Honestly, 1878 01:38:35,760 --> 01:38:37,599 Speaker 6: why are we even do it in college football? Get 1879 01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:40,120 Speaker 6: rid of it. We didn't need it in the first place. 1880 01:38:40,160 --> 01:38:44,839 Speaker 4: But a warning is not political recording man, too aggressive 1881 01:38:44,880 --> 01:38:45,320 Speaker 4: of a word. 1882 01:38:45,439 --> 01:38:46,920 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, two minute warning? 1883 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:48,200 Speaker 4: Too invasive right there? 1884 01:38:48,240 --> 01:38:48,759 Speaker 6: That warning? 1885 01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:51,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, just put the one seat at the top. Come on, 1886 01:38:51,120 --> 01:38:52,040 Speaker 4: get these graphics. 1887 01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:55,720 Speaker 3: Which is the quarterfinal team that is most vulnerable in 1888 01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:58,679 Speaker 3: that round? That to me, that's the most intriguing question 1889 01:38:58,720 --> 01:39:00,599 Speaker 3: because that's where you find the most like an Ole 1890 01:39:00,600 --> 01:39:03,920 Speaker 3: miss beat Georgia, can Can can Alabama, Oklahoma be Indiana, 1891 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:05,320 Speaker 3: and Oregon be Texas. 1892 01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:08,120 Speaker 4: I think it's Ohio State. I would say it's Ohio state. 1893 01:39:08,520 --> 01:39:08,920 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1894 01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:11,200 Speaker 4: Wow, you know I state. 1895 01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:13,240 Speaker 3: One of the great national championships of all time, Miami 1896 01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:13,800 Speaker 3: in Han state. 1897 01:39:14,040 --> 01:39:18,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, and sure of the greatest ripoff jobs of in history. 1898 01:39:18,760 --> 01:39:21,160 Speaker 4: By the way, interference, Oh it was so bad.

How about the Bills against the Patriots. And 1940 01:41:35,840 --> 01:41:38,880 Speaker 4: the Patriots they've got a great record eleven and two, 1941 01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:41,880 Speaker 4: they haven't gotten a lot of great respect. Right, there 1942 01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:45,639 Speaker 4: are one point home underdogs. A lot of talk this 1943 01:41:45,720 --> 01:41:49,600 Speaker 4: week as Mariah Carey is just jamming today. Man, Jesus, 1944 01:41:49,920 --> 01:41:50,559 Speaker 4: she's on point. 1945 01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:50,840 Speaker 6: Right. 1946 01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:55,479 Speaker 4: It's Christmas time when you hear that one, you know, like, listen, 1947 01:41:56,400 --> 01:41:58,960 Speaker 4: you look at the Patriots and as good as they've 1948 01:41:58,960 --> 01:42:04,519 Speaker 4: been this season, it's been almost one way, like, oh, Bills, Bills, Bills, Bills, 1949 01:42:04,720 --> 01:42:07,439 Speaker 4: they get their revenge. Bills lost the first one, they'll win. 1950 01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:10,360 Speaker 4: It just seems like that's what I'm hearing all the 1951 01:42:10,439 --> 01:42:14,679 Speaker 4: time and listen, man, I look at you guys would 1952 01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:18,280 Speaker 4: know this based on my Bama outlook is I look 1953 01:42:18,439 --> 01:42:22,280 Speaker 4: less at the schedule and I look more at the 1954 01:42:22,320 --> 01:42:26,240 Speaker 4: formula of a team, like what is your formula for success? 1955 01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:30,920 Speaker 4: And can you sustain that formula. I look at the Patriots, 1956 01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:33,880 Speaker 4: and while they're being sold short by a lot of people, man, 1957 01:42:33,920 --> 01:42:37,720 Speaker 4: because they haven't had the toughest schedule, they're like, they're bumslayers. 1958 01:42:38,360 --> 01:42:40,280 Speaker 4: I don't trust them at all. And it's like, if 1959 01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:42,719 Speaker 4: you look beyond that, now, they do have a couple 1960 01:42:42,760 --> 01:42:46,400 Speaker 4: of impressive wins. The road win at Buffalo in primetime 1961 01:42:46,640 --> 01:42:51,120 Speaker 4: is an impressive win before like injuries and the wheels 1962 01:42:51,160 --> 01:42:53,840 Speaker 4: came off the tracks for Tampa. What set that in 1963 01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:57,080 Speaker 4: motion was the Patriots going on the road and getting 1964 01:42:57,080 --> 01:42:59,439 Speaker 4: a win against Tampa. That's a good win also. So 1965 01:42:59,479 --> 01:43:01,519 Speaker 4: they have a couple of good wins and yes they 1966 01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:05,439 Speaker 4: have been bump slayers, but look at their formula. What's 1967 01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:08,200 Speaker 4: their formula for success? Well, they play really good defense. 1968 01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:12,599 Speaker 4: They've got an outstanding corner in Christian Gonzales. They've got 1969 01:43:12,640 --> 01:43:15,080 Speaker 4: a really good head coach in Mike Frable. They've got 1970 01:43:15,120 --> 01:43:19,360 Speaker 4: an MVP candidate at quarterback in Drake May. That's a 1971 01:43:19,400 --> 01:43:23,160 Speaker 4: good formula. That's a formula where you can sustain success. 1972 01:43:23,680 --> 01:43:25,080 Speaker 4: And so I don't know. I think a lot of 1973 01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:27,280 Speaker 4: people are sleeping on the Patriots, and as great as 1974 01:43:27,320 --> 01:43:29,360 Speaker 4: their record is, they just have not gotten a ton 1975 01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:30,400 Speaker 4: of respect out there. 1976 01:43:32,160 --> 01:43:32,479 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1977 01:43:32,760 --> 01:43:36,960 Speaker 5: I think they have a weaker schedule and that's probably 1978 01:43:37,479 --> 01:43:39,880 Speaker 5: a big reason why people don't respect them quite as 1979 01:43:39,960 --> 01:43:42,280 Speaker 5: much as they do a team like the Bills who 1980 01:43:42,280 --> 01:43:45,760 Speaker 5: also has a record of success. And I think that 1981 01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:48,680 Speaker 5: gets accounted for more than it should. You're not the 1982 01:43:48,720 --> 01:43:51,080 Speaker 5: team you were last year. And I think you said 1983 01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:53,360 Speaker 5: it right. Drake May has played his way into the 1984 01:43:53,439 --> 01:43:57,080 Speaker 5: MVP conversation, and for good reason, because he's one of 1985 01:43:57,120 --> 01:44:01,000 Speaker 5: the top NFL quarterbacks this season. He's played incredible football 1986 01:44:01,040 --> 01:44:04,679 Speaker 5: and very consistently. Well you know, it's not like he's 1987 01:44:04,680 --> 01:44:07,480 Speaker 5: having these outstanding games and then disappearing. 1988 01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:09,639 Speaker 6: No, he's been good all year long. 1989 01:44:09,680 --> 01:44:12,639 Speaker 5: And if you're paying attention, Drake May is the goods 1990 01:44:12,680 --> 01:44:15,040 Speaker 5: and it appears the Patriots have found their long term 1991 01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:20,080 Speaker 5: answer at quarterback after the Brady years. So moving on 1992 01:44:20,120 --> 01:44:22,200 Speaker 5: to the Bills, here's the reason why I think the 1993 01:44:22,200 --> 01:44:24,519 Speaker 5: Bills can and probably will win this game. 1994 01:44:26,560 --> 01:44:28,360 Speaker 6: The Buffalo Bills. 1995 01:44:28,479 --> 01:44:31,960 Speaker 5: Everything you just said about the Patriots recipe for success, 1996 01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:34,320 Speaker 5: you could say about the Bills. You have an MVP 1997 01:44:34,479 --> 01:44:38,360 Speaker 5: caliber quarterback who's playing great football down the stretch, a 1998 01:44:38,439 --> 01:44:43,520 Speaker 5: good solid defense, and against better competition they have struggled. 1999 01:44:43,560 --> 01:44:46,840 Speaker 5: And you can argue the Patriots are better competition, some 2000 01:44:46,960 --> 01:44:49,840 Speaker 5: of the better competition they'll face this year. But what 2001 01:44:49,880 --> 01:44:53,120 Speaker 5: the Patriots have going for them is they've played against 2002 01:44:53,120 --> 01:44:56,400 Speaker 5: a bunch of limp armed quarterbacks who have really struggled 2003 01:44:56,840 --> 01:45:00,599 Speaker 5: against them defensively. When they go against better quarterbacks, I'm 2004 01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:03,880 Speaker 5: talking about better than average quarterbacks, even the likes of 2005 01:45:03,920 --> 01:45:06,680 Speaker 5: two A Tongue Vailoa, they get that pass defense is 2006 01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:08,679 Speaker 5: a bit of a weakness for the Pats. 2007 01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:12,160 Speaker 6: And with Dalton Kincaid coming back a. 2008 01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:15,400 Speaker 5: Great red zone target for Josh Allen, with Cook being 2009 01:45:15,439 --> 01:45:19,439 Speaker 5: involved more in the passing game as a receiver over 2010 01:45:19,479 --> 01:45:21,679 Speaker 5: the past couple of weeks, I could see the Bills 2011 01:45:21,720 --> 01:45:25,479 Speaker 5: being more dynamic this time around and the Patriots having 2012 01:45:25,520 --> 01:45:28,960 Speaker 5: a harder time stopping the passing attack against the Bills. 2013 01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:32,040 Speaker 5: So I'm definitely one of the folks on the Bills 2014 01:45:32,040 --> 01:45:36,200 Speaker 5: bandwagon this week, although I will say I've been happily surprised. 2015 01:45:36,760 --> 01:45:39,880 Speaker 5: Although I took the over on the win total, I 2016 01:45:39,920 --> 01:45:41,720 Speaker 5: don't know if I would have taken the over on 2017 01:45:41,760 --> 01:45:44,360 Speaker 5: the win total at like the halfway point. 2018 01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:47,280 Speaker 6: Of the season. Happily surprised with the Patriots success this year. 2019 01:45:47,880 --> 01:45:50,040 Speaker 3: This is a weird year in the NFL markets. So 2020 01:45:50,200 --> 01:45:53,599 Speaker 3: listen to this. The Patriots are a home underdog this week. 2021 01:45:53,680 --> 01:46:00,000 Speaker 3: You have multiple teams that have nine games over five hundred. Yeah, 2022 01:46:00,240 --> 01:46:07,679 Speaker 3: that are home underdogs this week, right, Denver and New England. 2023 01:46:07,920 --> 01:46:10,320 Speaker 3: So here's your betting nugget of the week, courtesy of 2024 01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:12,759 Speaker 3: Todd Furman, does a great job covering all things betting 2025 01:46:12,840 --> 01:46:17,120 Speaker 3: for CBS and other networks. The eighth and ninth teams 2026 01:46:18,240 --> 01:46:22,719 Speaker 3: to be underdogs nine games over five hundred this late 2027 01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:25,800 Speaker 3: in the year. The previous seven teams zero and seven 2028 01:46:25,840 --> 01:46:29,680 Speaker 3: against this bread. So where Brian looks at a lot 2029 01:46:29,720 --> 01:46:32,040 Speaker 3: of formula stuff, I look at market stuff Like that's 2030 01:46:32,040 --> 01:46:35,120 Speaker 3: what I do. The market is screaming at you to 2031 01:46:35,200 --> 01:46:40,759 Speaker 3: bet Buffalo. Here screaming screaming to bet Buffalo. They're telling 2032 01:46:40,800 --> 01:46:43,160 Speaker 3: you that Buffalo is the better team. I'm glad Rich 2033 01:46:43,240 --> 01:46:47,080 Speaker 3: mentioned the quarterbacks here they are in all their glory 2034 01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:51,759 Speaker 3: that New England has faced this year, Gino Smith, Tua, 2035 01:46:52,600 --> 01:46:57,880 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, Bryce Young, Dylan Gabriel, Spencer Rattler, cam Ward 2036 01:46:58,360 --> 01:47:04,120 Speaker 3: Michael Pennix, Injured Bayer, Justin Fields, Joe Flacco, Jackson Dart, 2037 01:47:04,360 --> 01:47:08,799 Speaker 3: and Josh Allen. That first meeting against Buffalo, Josh Allen 2038 01:47:09,080 --> 01:47:12,599 Speaker 3: the only quarterback in the top thirteen of EPA per 2039 01:47:12,680 --> 01:47:15,360 Speaker 3: dropback this year, they've only faced one. Not to be fair, 2040 01:47:15,400 --> 01:47:16,720 Speaker 3: they beat him on the road as an eight and 2041 01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:18,600 Speaker 3: a half point dog. Give him all the credit for that. 2042 01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:22,800 Speaker 3: Revenge is a dish best serve cold like this just 2043 01:47:23,000 --> 01:47:26,160 Speaker 3: feels like Buffalo comes in and says, I know, you've 2044 01:47:26,160 --> 01:47:28,479 Speaker 3: had a great year in New England. It's been fun. 2045 01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:31,920 Speaker 3: You're a playoff team. You're probably going to win the 2046 01:47:31,960 --> 01:47:35,800 Speaker 3: AFC East even if you lose this game. But this 2047 01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:39,000 Speaker 3: feels like Buffalo's game. The market's telling me it's Buffalo's game. 2048 01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:42,519 Speaker 3: And then I look at the defense for New England 2049 01:47:42,720 --> 01:47:45,880 Speaker 3: that has struggled a little bit up front this year. 2050 01:47:45,960 --> 01:47:49,360 Speaker 3: Their secondary is great, but Buffalo doesn't really want to 2051 01:47:49,400 --> 01:47:52,120 Speaker 3: throw it deep down the field. They want Josh Allen 2052 01:47:52,200 --> 01:47:54,479 Speaker 3: to be the playmaker. And what I saw last week 2053 01:47:54,520 --> 01:47:57,680 Speaker 3: with Josh Allen against the Bengals was a quarterback that 2054 01:47:57,880 --> 01:48:00,720 Speaker 3: is willing to do whatever is necessary to get his 2055 01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:02,680 Speaker 3: team across the finish line. It's been kind of a 2056 01:48:02,720 --> 01:48:06,719 Speaker 3: weird year for the Bills, but it's the last year 2057 01:48:06,720 --> 01:48:11,280 Speaker 3: in this stadium. I'm starting to get some Bills magic vibes. 2058 01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:14,160 Speaker 3: Chiefs are out, Ravens are out. Who's the best team 2059 01:48:14,200 --> 01:48:17,320 Speaker 3: in the AFC? The market clearly hates the Patriots, the 2060 01:48:17,360 --> 01:48:21,400 Speaker 3: market clearly hates the Broncos. Who's gonna win the AFC 2061 01:48:21,439 --> 01:48:25,400 Speaker 3: this year? Maybe this is Buffalo's year. Maybe it is. 2062 01:48:26,040 --> 01:48:28,920 Speaker 3: It took Mahomes and Lamar to kind of pooh pooh 2063 01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:32,320 Speaker 3: themselves to clear the path for the Bills to maybe 2064 01:48:32,360 --> 01:48:34,519 Speaker 3: finally get to the super Bowl. It'll be really interesting 2065 01:48:34,520 --> 01:48:35,760 Speaker 3: in the AC playoffs this year. 2066 01:48:35,960 --> 01:48:38,880 Speaker 4: It will be. But here's the thing, Like I think 2067 01:48:38,920 --> 01:48:42,160 Speaker 4: the Bills are the process of elimination team. You know, 2068 01:48:42,400 --> 01:48:47,920 Speaker 4: where you start listing the other teams like like Patriots, Broncos, 2069 01:48:48,040 --> 01:48:49,680 Speaker 4: and there are a lot of teams where you're just 2070 01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:53,240 Speaker 4: not gonna feel comfortable shouting from the rooftops, like I'm 2071 01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:57,719 Speaker 4: backing this team, Right, you can feel more comfortable backing 2072 01:48:57,760 --> 01:49:01,120 Speaker 4: the Bills because of Josh Allen. He's the defending MVP. 2073 01:49:01,360 --> 01:49:06,559 Speaker 4: He might win MVP again, He's been fantastic, Right, it's easier. 2074 01:49:06,680 --> 01:49:08,479 Speaker 4: You feel more comfortable, Like I'm not going to be 2075 01:49:08,520 --> 01:49:11,519 Speaker 4: an idiot if I back the Bills and they fall 2076 01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:14,920 Speaker 4: in their face. But it doesn't mean you're right. Their 2077 01:49:15,040 --> 01:49:19,439 Speaker 4: rush defense sucks, like they can't stop the run at all, 2078 01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:23,240 Speaker 4: and they have b rate wide receivers. Right, Like, so 2079 01:49:23,360 --> 01:49:27,800 Speaker 4: when you start really getting in on Buffalo, if you're 2080 01:49:27,840 --> 01:49:32,000 Speaker 4: able to slow down James cook Man, that offense can 2081 01:49:32,080 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 4: come off the tracks real fast as specially as Josh 2082 01:49:34,240 --> 01:49:37,479 Speaker 4: Allen is, like he can't throw the covered dudes all 2083 01:49:37,560 --> 01:49:40,439 Speaker 4: day long, you know what I mean. So I don't know, man, 2084 01:49:40,560 --> 01:49:43,000 Speaker 4: I think Buffalo is just that team where a lot 2085 01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:45,880 Speaker 4: of people are starting to gravitate toward them because they 2086 01:49:45,880 --> 01:49:48,840 Speaker 4: don't trust anybody else in the AFC. Right now, that 2087 01:49:48,920 --> 01:49:50,800 Speaker 4: doesn't mean the Bills have the goods and they're gonna 2088 01:49:50,800 --> 01:49:54,439 Speaker 4: come through. How about this Marquee NFC game. We got 2089 01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:58,840 Speaker 4: the Lions at the Rams. The total climbs from fifty 2090 01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:00,519 Speaker 4: and a half all the way to fifty five and 2091 01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:04,400 Speaker 4: a half. We're at fifty five now, but who's stopping who? 2092 01:50:04,800 --> 01:50:08,559 Speaker 4: You know, Like I guess the big question is can 2093 01:50:08,600 --> 01:50:12,160 Speaker 4: the Lions run the ball on the Rams, because if 2094 01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:16,040 Speaker 4: Jamir Gibbs and David Montgomery are held relatively in check, 2095 01:50:16,760 --> 01:50:20,640 Speaker 4: that's that's gonna be really difficult for the Lions. I 2096 01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:23,320 Speaker 4: don't like the Rams secondary, so I think Jared Goff's 2097 01:50:23,320 --> 01:50:25,240 Speaker 4: gonna have some success, even though that's a good pass 2098 01:50:25,320 --> 01:50:27,760 Speaker 4: rush if he can, you know, when he has time, 2099 01:50:27,800 --> 01:50:30,320 Speaker 4: I think Jared Goff is gonna do damage. I think 2100 01:50:30,360 --> 01:50:34,080 Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford is gonna do unspeakable things to that Lions 2101 01:50:34,120 --> 01:50:38,320 Speaker 4: defense man. It's he's gonna shred them. I think this 2102 01:50:38,360 --> 01:50:40,760 Speaker 4: has Rams written all over it. But what a two 2103 01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:45,120 Speaker 4: game stretch. Rams hosting the Lions tomorrow and then turning 2104 01:50:45,160 --> 01:50:48,200 Speaker 4: around on a short week Thursday night at Seattle. These 2105 01:50:48,240 --> 01:50:50,960 Speaker 4: are two monster games for the La Rams. 2106 01:50:52,479 --> 01:50:54,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, there's no question about it. 2107 01:50:54,840 --> 01:50:59,280 Speaker 5: Looking to clinch obviously a playoff spot here, but you 2108 01:50:59,320 --> 01:51:02,960 Speaker 5: look at the Ram and you see them as the 2109 01:51:03,040 --> 01:51:06,800 Speaker 5: number one seed in the NFC. The win over the 2110 01:51:06,840 --> 01:51:10,599 Speaker 5: Lions guarantees them a bit into the postseason, but they're 2111 01:51:10,640 --> 01:51:13,760 Speaker 5: obviously playing for so much more. Rolling off that insane 2112 01:51:13,920 --> 01:51:18,200 Speaker 5: route of the Arizona Cardinals. They beat them forty five 2113 01:51:18,760 --> 01:51:22,599 Speaker 5: seventeen if memory serves me correct and Stafford at over 2114 01:51:22,680 --> 01:51:23,719 Speaker 5: five hundred yards. 2115 01:51:24,160 --> 01:51:26,720 Speaker 6: They're not going to be stopped by the Lions. They're not. 2116 01:51:27,640 --> 01:51:33,040 Speaker 5: The Lions secondary is in free fall. They are missing 2117 01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:37,080 Speaker 5: key players. So it really comes down to Dan Campbell. 2118 01:51:37,640 --> 01:51:40,760 Speaker 5: I really think that whether or not the Lions win 2119 01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:45,280 Speaker 5: this game comes down to the offensive scheme that he 2120 01:51:45,439 --> 01:51:50,200 Speaker 5: ends up deploying against the Rams. And you're going against 2121 01:51:50,240 --> 01:51:53,559 Speaker 5: a pretty stout Rams defense. It's a group that's only 2122 01:51:53,600 --> 01:51:56,840 Speaker 5: given up seventeen and a half points per game. Young 2123 01:51:56,960 --> 01:51:59,280 Speaker 5: has been screaming off the edge for that defense. He's 2124 01:51:59,320 --> 01:52:02,640 Speaker 5: got eleven sound the season. You gotta put on your 2125 01:52:02,640 --> 01:52:05,160 Speaker 5: big boy pants when you face the Los Angeles Rams 2126 01:52:05,200 --> 01:52:08,759 Speaker 5: this season. Now, I love Dan Campbell as a head coach. 2127 01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:12,400 Speaker 5: I think that he sets the tone the right way. 2128 01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:15,400 Speaker 5: If he was the director of this film, you're going 2129 01:52:15,439 --> 01:52:19,960 Speaker 5: into a movie where he has the right vision. The 2130 01:52:20,040 --> 01:52:22,960 Speaker 5: question is does he have the right actors? Does he 2131 01:52:23,040 --> 01:52:29,000 Speaker 5: have enough of a cast to bring home the script? 2132 01:52:29,760 --> 01:52:32,960 Speaker 5: And that's the biggest question here. I don't know if 2133 01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:35,959 Speaker 5: he does. If he's gonna win, it's gonna be by shootout, 2134 01:52:36,040 --> 01:52:37,920 Speaker 5: and I don't know if they have the firepower. 2135 01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:42,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you can make the case that the 2136 01:52:42,240 --> 01:52:45,519 Speaker 3: Rams are slightly overvalued against the spread here. You could 2137 01:52:45,520 --> 01:52:48,240 Speaker 3: make that case if you're getting a six on Detroit. 2138 01:52:48,240 --> 01:52:52,360 Speaker 3: Detroit as a dog is very formidable. And I do 2139 01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:55,400 Speaker 3: like the play caller switch. I think Dan Campbell is 2140 01:52:55,600 --> 01:52:57,920 Speaker 3: you know, I don't always love it when the head 2141 01:52:57,920 --> 01:53:01,479 Speaker 3: coach is the play caller, but I feel like with 2142 01:53:01,600 --> 01:53:04,639 Speaker 3: Dan Campbell it's just it's no nonsense. Like the one 2143 01:53:04,680 --> 01:53:07,360 Speaker 3: thing I've noticed since the play caller switch is Jamiir 2144 01:53:07,360 --> 01:53:10,280 Speaker 3: gibbs target rate has gone through the roof. It's almost 2145 01:53:10,320 --> 01:53:14,439 Speaker 3: doubled since he's gone to the play caller switch. Like 2146 01:53:14,760 --> 01:53:17,559 Speaker 3: it really they're just spamming Jamiir Gibbs. And that's good, 2147 01:53:17,600 --> 01:53:20,400 Speaker 3: you know why, because he's basically Barry Sanders, Like, I mean, 2148 01:53:20,439 --> 01:53:25,200 Speaker 3: he's insane after the catch and his ability to run 2149 01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:28,160 Speaker 3: the football in space and what that does. It sets 2150 01:53:28,240 --> 01:53:31,519 Speaker 3: up the run game in the play action spots, which 2151 01:53:31,560 --> 01:53:35,120 Speaker 3: is really something the Lions excel in, and the Rams 2152 01:53:35,120 --> 01:53:37,880 Speaker 3: are kind of below average defending play action this year. 2153 01:53:38,360 --> 01:53:41,280 Speaker 3: So if you want the path for Detroit, it's Jamiir 2154 01:53:41,280 --> 01:53:43,840 Speaker 3: Gibbs left right center. Then play action off of it 2155 01:53:43,960 --> 01:53:47,160 Speaker 3: like that's how you stay in this game. On the 2156 01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:50,000 Speaker 3: other side of the ball, the Rams are really good 2157 01:53:50,240 --> 01:53:54,240 Speaker 3: at just shoving it right over you over the top. 2158 01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:57,360 Speaker 3: They love to throw deep, and the Lions are single 2159 01:53:57,400 --> 01:53:59,800 Speaker 3: high coverage a lot they will invite the deep ball. 2160 01:54:00,240 --> 01:54:03,519 Speaker 3: So it I think Stafford is due for a big 2161 01:54:03,560 --> 01:54:06,320 Speaker 3: statistical game. And then if you want to zoom out 2162 01:54:06,360 --> 01:54:10,920 Speaker 3: big picture, he's about minus won sixty between that and 2163 01:54:10,960 --> 01:54:13,479 Speaker 3: minus two hundred, somewhere in that range to win MVP. 2164 01:54:13,920 --> 01:54:16,360 Speaker 3: I would not make that bet now. I would wait 2165 01:54:16,400 --> 01:54:18,960 Speaker 3: until next week and just bet the Rams to beat 2166 01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:21,479 Speaker 3: the Seahawks because it's going to be a much better price. 2167 01:54:21,880 --> 01:54:24,360 Speaker 3: And if they beat the Seahawks next week, Stafford's the MVP. 2168 01:54:24,479 --> 01:54:27,280 Speaker 3: Stafford can lock up the MVP over the next eight days. 2169 01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:29,799 Speaker 3: He wins Sunday, he wins Thursday, that's it. It's done. 2170 01:54:30,400 --> 01:54:34,520 Speaker 3: Nobody else can catch him. If they lose on Sunday night, 2171 01:54:35,040 --> 01:54:38,560 Speaker 3: or if they lose next Thursday. That's where a Drake 2172 01:54:38,640 --> 01:54:41,800 Speaker 3: may a Josh Allen, the you know, an off beaten 2173 01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:45,760 Speaker 3: path candidate can maybe steal it. But Matthew Stafford's the 2174 01:54:45,800 --> 01:54:46,600 Speaker 3: MVP of the league. 2175 01:54:46,440 --> 01:54:46,800 Speaker 6: No doubt. 2176 01:54:46,960 --> 01:54:50,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been sensational this season. One difference between these 2177 01:54:50,480 --> 01:54:53,240 Speaker 4: two teams to point out real fast. If you look 2178 01:54:53,280 --> 01:54:57,200 Speaker 4: at the scoring offenses, the Lions are number one, the 2179 01:54:57,280 --> 01:55:00,080 Speaker 4: Rams are number four, So both top five scoring off 2180 01:55:00,560 --> 01:55:04,440 Speaker 4: scoring defenses, right, like preventing points, Rams are number three 2181 01:55:05,280 --> 01:55:08,800 Speaker 4: and Detroit's eighteenth. Right, And that's throughout most of the 2182 01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:12,360 Speaker 4: year with mostly healthy guys. You know, now their secondary 2183 01:55:12,440 --> 01:55:16,640 Speaker 4: is way banged up. No, Brian Branch, No, Kirby Joseph's 2184 01:55:16,840 --> 01:55:19,280 Speaker 4: that's not good. That's that good against the top five 2185 01:55:19,360 --> 01:55:21,520 Speaker 4: scoring offense to be that week in the secondary. 2186 01:55:21,560 --> 01:55:22,680 Speaker 6: But we'll see. 2187 01:55:22,800 --> 01:55:24,680 Speaker 4: Maybe they can keep it close, maybe they can threaten 2188 01:55:24,720 --> 01:55:26,560 Speaker 4: to win this game Detroit, We'll see how it goes. 2189 01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:29,040 Speaker 4: All Right, We've got rich Oinberger, Penn State All American, 2190 01:55:29,120 --> 01:55:32,720 Speaker 4: Jared Smith FSR betting analyst.

We're going to the bucked up ballet Bowl. 2224 01:57:13,880 --> 01:57:16,080 Speaker 3: I actually like three plays in this game, so I'm 2225 01:57:16,120 --> 01:57:17,680 Speaker 3: just gonna give you all three of them and hopefully 2226 01:57:17,720 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 3: we sweep the board because they're all kind of correlated. 2227 01:57:19,640 --> 01:57:22,080 Speaker 3: We'll start with Dylan Riley under seventy one and a 2228 01:57:22,120 --> 01:57:24,680 Speaker 3: half rushing yards. This Washington run defense is the Boise 2229 01:57:24,800 --> 01:57:28,080 Speaker 3: State running back Dylan Riley. This is the best run 2230 01:57:28,160 --> 01:57:30,680 Speaker 3: defense I think Boise's faced all year. Maybe the Notre 2231 01:57:30,760 --> 01:57:32,560 Speaker 3: Dame defense is better, but if you go and look 2232 01:57:32,600 --> 01:57:35,000 Speaker 3: at that Notre Dame game, boys, he didn't do a 2233 01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:38,360 Speaker 3: whole lot in that game. This Washington defense help Oregon's 2234 01:57:38,440 --> 01:57:39,960 Speaker 3: rushing game in check last week, just two and a 2235 01:57:39,960 --> 01:57:42,080 Speaker 3: half yards per carry. Only one back has gone over 2236 01:57:42,120 --> 01:57:45,320 Speaker 3: one hundred on Washington all year. That was all the 2237 01:57:45,320 --> 01:57:47,920 Speaker 3: way back in in October when Michigan and Jordan Marshall 2238 01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:51,080 Speaker 3: went berserk. Boise's rushing success right, it's been okay this 2239 01:57:51,160 --> 01:57:53,160 Speaker 3: year despite the Mountain West schedule. You got the freshman 2240 01:57:53,240 --> 01:57:55,000 Speaker 3: sire Gains also in the mix. So we'll go under 2241 01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:56,760 Speaker 3: seventy one and a half rushing arts for Dylan Riley. 2242 01:57:57,080 --> 01:57:59,000 Speaker 3: I think Boise State's gonna struggle to score in this game. 2243 01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:00,880 Speaker 3: I just told you Washington's defense probably one of the 2244 01:58:00,880 --> 01:58:04,640 Speaker 3: best that Boise's faced all year. Notre Dame stuffed this 2245 01:58:04,680 --> 01:58:06,840 Speaker 3: Boise team into a locker. They won twenty eight to 2246 01:58:06,920 --> 01:58:09,360 Speaker 3: seven way back earlier in the year. So we'll go 2247 01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:11,240 Speaker 3: Boise State's team total under twenty one. 2248 01:58:11,200 --> 01:58:11,640 Speaker 6: And a half. 2249 01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:13,640 Speaker 3: And if you haven't figured it out by now, I 2250 01:58:13,640 --> 01:58:16,080 Speaker 3: think Washington's better. So I'll lay the ten points with 2251 01:58:16,280 --> 01:58:19,000 Speaker 3: Washington against Boise State. I like the bye Jetfish give 2252 01:58:19,000 --> 01:58:20,880 Speaker 3: it off in this game. Looks like a lot of 2253 01:58:20,880 --> 01:58:23,240 Speaker 3: players are gonna be up that you maybe don't expect. 2254 01:58:23,240 --> 01:58:25,360 Speaker 3: So Washington, I think wins big against Boise today. 2255 01:58:26,640 --> 01:58:28,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, it looks like a lot of Washington's players are 2256 01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:32,080 Speaker 5: gonna be out there. I do think Boise State hangs 2257 01:58:32,160 --> 01:58:35,840 Speaker 5: tough though, and sticks around on the scoreboard. So we 2258 01:58:36,000 --> 01:58:40,480 Speaker 5: are again opposed on this what this go around? 2259 01:58:40,560 --> 01:58:41,280 Speaker 6: Jared Smith? 2260 01:58:41,520 --> 01:58:44,480 Speaker 5: I got Boise Tate State, and I'm taking the points 2261 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:49,440 Speaker 5: with the Broncos. Moving on to Navy against Army Army Navy. 2262 01:58:49,600 --> 01:58:52,600 Speaker 6: I'm gonna take Navy, though minus six and a half. 2263 01:58:52,880 --> 01:58:55,560 Speaker 5: I think the midship men win this one, and they 2264 01:58:55,800 --> 01:59:00,360 Speaker 5: probably do its sailing past Army defensively much better opens 2265 01:59:01,120 --> 01:59:02,360 Speaker 5: than Army's defense. 2266 01:59:02,440 --> 01:59:03,560 Speaker 6: And I'll take the over. 2267 01:59:03,360 --> 01:59:06,880 Speaker 5: In this game thirty eight and a half. I like 2268 01:59:06,960 --> 01:59:09,200 Speaker 5: this to be a higher scoring Army Navy game. 2269 01:59:09,320 --> 01:59:14,760 Speaker 4: So there you go, all right, diametrically opposed like I WASNA. 2270 01:59:15,080 --> 01:59:16,080 Speaker 3: That's such a great line. 2271 01:59:16,280 --> 01:59:19,600 Speaker 4: Great line, all right, I'm gonna start it off. Give 2272 01:59:19,600 --> 01:59:22,960 Speaker 4: me Oklahoma. I'll lay the point in a half because 2273 01:59:23,080 --> 01:59:33,000 Speaker 4: it's all together. Alabama is the fools, gold fools Saturday 2274 01:59:33,160 --> 01:59:36,680 Speaker 4: can't run the ball. Their defenses is good, and Ty 2275 01:59:36,760 --> 01:59:40,080 Speaker 4: Simpson is skittish. He looks terrible right now. He's the 2276 01:59:40,200 --> 01:59:44,000 Speaker 4: college cheer at golf facing pressure. He's inaccurate. I don't 2277 01:59:44,000 --> 01:59:45,960 Speaker 4: know what's going on with the guy. So I'll go 2278 01:59:46,040 --> 01:59:50,560 Speaker 4: with Boomer sooner. Baby, give me Matthew Stafford Constantine throughout 2279 01:59:50,600 --> 01:59:54,320 Speaker 4: the show. He's gonna do unspeakable things against the Lions. 2280 01:59:54,360 --> 01:59:57,120 Speaker 4: Banged up secondary, Give me over two seventy nine and 2281 01:59:57,160 --> 02:00:00,160 Speaker 4: a half passing yards and give me an under. I 2282 02:00:00,240 --> 02:00:02,800 Speaker 4: like under forty one. In this Chargers Chiefs game. We 2283 02:00:02,880 --> 02:00:05,880 Speaker 4: got offensive lineman banged dumb left and right. I think 2284 02:00:05,880 --> 02:00:09,960 Speaker 4: it's going to be a knocker of the slobber variety 2285 02:00:10,080 --> 02:00:12,480 Speaker 4: right there. So I think it's going to be a grinder. Everybody. 2286 02:00:12,560 --> 02:00:14,080 Speaker 4: Enjoy the weekend, Enjoy the ball.
