You can tell me if you are 20 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: great at any Ryan Day, if he loses to Michigan 21 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: again kidding, there will be some defensive that happens again. 22 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: Get him out of here, I'll start, Hugh Freeze. Just 23 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 1: seems like that souring. 24 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: They save money for this year. They save their money 25 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 2: for this year. 26 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: So will Cox at col that seems like it's about it. 27 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: I don't know why he's still there. I mean, they 28 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 2: want to go a different direction. They want to go 29 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:44,279 Speaker 2: Ron Rivera. 30 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: So yeah, that seems like it's gonna end very soon. 31 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,919 Speaker 1: Sadderfield at Sincy like you gotta do something soon, man. 32 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: And he was eating lunch by himself. A big toll 33 00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 2: media days. I mean, I don't know that. It's amazing 34 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: the turn of louis of Louisville and Cincinnati over the 35 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: past two years. I think it just shows the difference 36 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 2: between BRAWM and Saturday. 37 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, major, major difference. Two all grouped together are Stoops 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: in norvel They have massive buyouts like if but if 39 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: like Stoops, if you go like two, if you go 40 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 1: like three and nine again, I don't know. Kentucky's a 41 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: basketball school. I don't think they should put the money 42 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: towards they're not winning national title football. But if you 43 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: have another disaster season, do they think about the buyout. 44 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: There's a lot of money here. And then Norvelle, like 45 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: that is a football school. You can't go like three 46 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: and nine again. If you go too andinten again, you 47 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: gotta get him out of there. I don't know they'll 48 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: find a way to come up with the money. I 49 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,239 Speaker 1: don't know how because you got to put the money 50 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: to the program too. But if this ends in a 51 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: disaster again for novel, like you can't be Florida State 52 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: and go two ten and then four and twelve, like 53 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: he's got to get to a bowl and otherwise, I 54 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: think they're they're finding the money somewhere someone can phone. 55 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 56 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: Uh, Humby and Dilfer I think are kind of similar. 57 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: Like them. I think they would have been gone if 58 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: in like if this was five years at the I. 59 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: Think Comby is in way better ship than Dilfer. 60 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: I think I think this year, Uh, I'm surprised Dilfer 61 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: came back actually, like they brought him back, but he's 62 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:31,239 Speaker 1: on thin ice. Uh venables M I think if I 63 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: don't know, I think that there's Tokahoma. You can't just 64 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: say they go six and six again this year. 65 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: I did hear that he was told, you are making 66 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 2: this change on offense and you are going to be 67 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: hands off. So at least the administration if when the 68 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: administration generally gets that much involved. The next step is 69 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: you're gone, So you're not we lost Ali. 70 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: Ali went to West Virginia. They want to I don't know, 71 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: you're gone. He has such a like they went to 72 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: eighteen straight bowls. He's been there forever. Yeah, but like, 73 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: can you afford another complete dumpster fire there? It's be 74 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 1: interesting to watch that team away. That team is completely 75 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: brand new. There's some teams that are just like, I'm like, 76 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: how do I powerate this team like that? That's one 77 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: of the most difficult things about early on in the 78 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: year is that you could have teams like a Florida 79 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: State that you adjust by like twenty points. You never 80 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: would do that in the past. Right, you used to 81 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: have known floors and ceilings, you know, four teams based 82 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: on their program history and then their talent level of 83 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: returning production. Right you would have a band you can 84 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: still be off and you'd have to adjust. But the 85 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: adjustments that you make, the amount that you could be 86 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: off is now potentially massive. For some of these things 87 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: like Perdue. Perdue is completely brand new, new staff, all 88 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: new players that just the the range of where they 89 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: could be is I don't I don't know. 90 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 2: I'll say this I'll save it for the Big Too podcast. 91 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: I brought Oklahoma save back to their floor of their 92 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: program level power rating. I still can't get to their 93 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: win total, like I just. 94 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to watch. There's there's some teams 95 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: that are just like completely uh and then uh, I'll mention. 96 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: I gotta mention the Virginia schools like Virginian VA Tech, 97 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: Virginia and Virginia Tech, like it's time you gotta do something, Elliet, 98 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: you gotta get to a bowl. Pry like after last 99 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: year with all that all that hype, all that talent 100 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: that they had, you have another bad year this year. 101 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: I like his coordinator eyes, but it seems like desperation 102 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: move right like. And then Virginia with Elliott, it's like 103 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: hit the portal like we you can see these coaches 104 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: when they start to feel it. And then the last 105 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: one is your boy, Samuel Pittman. What do you thought? 106 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's kim number. He gets to where he's safe. 107 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: If he makes a bowl, he stays, if he wants 108 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 2: to stay, and look, he gets that the buyouts getting shorter. 109 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: There are some things in his contract that gets rewards 110 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 2: for five wins. This again is the toughest schedule in 111 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 2: the nation. This whole Memphis Notre Dame thing, It's like, 112 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: I almost think Hunter, your check r ad is creating 113 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 2: these schedules to get Pittman out. But we are in 114 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 2: the same place at the end of every season, which 115 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 2: is who are you going to replace him with? Because 116 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 2: when John Tyson decides to break his checkbook open for 117 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: twenty million dollars for Calipari, that's a statement that basketball 118 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: is important. When we are building facilities around the center 119 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 2: field wall and the left field bullpen and the right 120 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: field you know, athletic training center on the baseball field, 121 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 2: that's a statement that the money in this state is 122 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 2: going to other programs besides football. We have the worst 123 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: defensive line in the SEC, and the reason is because 124 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 2: no one's opening up their checkbook. No one has any belief. 125 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: Everyone loves Sam, everyone loves them, But I feel like 126 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: this is the swan song. I feel like t will 127 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: or defensive coordinators on his way to be a head 128 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: coach somewhere. I feel like this is the swan song. 129 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: And then your check is probably already looking for a 130 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: next head coach, and Pittman's wanted to mention being wanted 131 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 2: to retire for a while anyway, so it while saving 132 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 2: for the sec POD. I do not have good feelings 133 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 2: about where this is going this year. 134 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: I feel like what he's stolen valor in uh faetough. 135 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: You guys are trying to become Lexington not not care 136 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: about football, not put the money, and you take you 137 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: get Cali Parry, you take him. You're now trying to 138 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: become a basketball school. Oh and by the way, I 139 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: didn't even men about it. 140 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: What are you talking about? 141 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: Not even care football? Arkansas in the past has never 142 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: been like that. I know now you're at the point 143 00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: where you could lose to Arkansas State. 144 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to I'm done talking on that. You 145 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: only get like thirty seconds of me on this ship 146 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: because you've got that damn jiff of LSU beating us 147 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: in the College World Series. Like on on on speed dial. 148 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: You hate LSU this year. 149 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: The more I messed with, the more on I'm afraid 150 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: you're gonna PTSD at PTSD with that damn LSU loss 151 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: up in Omaha. 152 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: You're killing me that that non double play man, Well 153 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: he was what were you doing? Answer me this? Arkansas 154 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: who they played September six in Little Rock against Arkansas State. 155 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't lose that game. You can't lose 156 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: to State. 157 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: Broils would have never let us play that game. He 158 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: would have never acknowledged our other universities in the state. 159 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: Everyone roots for Arkansas and that's it all right, Yep, 160 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: that's it all four corners. If loses to Arkansas State, 161 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: is Pittman gone that week? 162 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 2: He's not making out a war memorial. He might as well. 163 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 2: He just hit the boat, Just go dug, just get 164 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: ready for for deer hunting season, go down to Stuttgart 165 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 2: and get some peasants going. I just don't come back. 166 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: I can't lose that. Pod would be great if that happens. 167 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 1: Any other coaching hot seats do you want to mention that? 168 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: I think the one I want to mention was Lincoln Riley. 169 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 2: Like I think people think he's on the hot seat, 170 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 2: he's not. There's a lot of national talk about that. Listen. 171 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 2: I agree Danton Lynn raised USC from being bottom ten 172 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 2: defense and every metric to about sixtieth. I don't think 173 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: people understand what us see how much they improved on 174 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: the defensive side, and I expect those numbers to get 175 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 2: cut in half again where you I think USC could 176 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: be top thirty five and a lot of those numbers, 177 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 2: So I don't I think this Lincoln Riley stuff is 178 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 2: BS And I will just go ahead and let everybody 179 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 2: know on our Big ten pod there's going to be 180 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: a lot of love for the Trophans. 181 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. One of the reasons I like that I like 182 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 1: USC this year too. One of the reasons that this 183 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: is important to mention, it's like when you when you're 184 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: going through win totals, not only for these teams with 185 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: coaches on the hot seat or programs where it just 186 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: could end up being it like Arkansas schedule, Like if 187 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: it just goes south quick and then what happens with 188 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: these programs now, especially in today, then kids are going 189 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,599 Speaker 1: to start looking for their next stop and then it 190 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: just goes sour. So, but it's not only for those programs. 191 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: It's like, who are the other teams that play these 192 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: teams late in the year. If you have a couple 193 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: teams where it's like it's a very violatile situation and 194 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: at the end of this, at the end of the season, 195 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: you play two of these teams who could have just 196 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: coaches who are basically out the door or already fired. 197 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: Something to keep in mind when you're just looking at 198 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: these wind totals quarterback battles that you're interested in, anything 199 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: you want to mention. 200 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 2: I'll start with the UNLV because we have two completely 201 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: different quarterbacks under Dan mull and Alex Orgy was not 202 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: allowed to throw the ball from Michigan at all, much 203 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 2: better on the ground, and then Tony Klandria only throws 204 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: fifty yard passes for Virginia. So can you tell me 205 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 2: what offense we're running and which quarterback is going to run? 206 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 2: I mean to me, that kind of dictates what the 207 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,719 Speaker 2: identity of the u n LV offense is going to be. 208 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: If Dan Mullen cares, is he just there on a 209 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 2: Vegas vacation, and you know he doesn't. He's not really 210 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 2: known for recruiting, so I don't know. The UNLB to 211 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: me is a mystery and a lot of power. My 212 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: power ratings a lot of other preseason mags. They like 213 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: UNLB to kind of hang up there at the top 214 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: of the Mountain West, But what is our offensive identity 215 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: with with the go go out of there now over 216 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 2: oh by the way Sacramento State, Like if you like 217 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 2: Bett and FCS the go gos at Sacramento State, But 218 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 2: what is UNLV UNLV's identity. I think that's a big 219 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 2: question for me. 220 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: I agree, it's an interesting one to watch. I'm not 221 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 1: high on UNLB though, don't like their coordinator hires either 222 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: a couple. I'll mention Syracuse like they named Ricky Collins 223 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 1: the startup and then they brought in Steve Angeli, So 224 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: if Collins loses that, I mean, I think Angelly probably 225 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: has think is in the higher floor, Collins is the 226 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: higher ceiling. Does it ultimately matter though? With that schedule, 227 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: I mean Syracuse on the road, I mean to clear 228 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: their wind total, they'renna have to sweep at home, I think. 229 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: I mean it is one of the hardest road schedules. 230 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: I shouldn't say road. It's away from home because Tennessee's 231 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: at a neutral it's down south. They're away from home 232 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: games or Tennessee, Clemson, SMU, Georgia Tech, Miami and Notre Dame. 233 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: Doesn't get any harder than that BC. I think that 234 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: there's a much they have a much higher ceiling. If 235 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: it's not Grayson James, and I think that's the way 236 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: that it's trending. Although with BC, if you look historically, 237 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: what happens, I mean, I think Lonergan, if he wins, 238 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: it gives them higher ceiling. But what happens with BC 239 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: when they're good to decent versus really bad, it's right 240 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: all in the trenches. And they lost a ton. They 241 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: lost the ACC defensive Player of the year on the 242 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 1: defensive line and others, and they lost three or four 243 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: offensive line into the NFL. So that could be. I 244 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: remember BC's offensive line like three years ago, Oh my god, 245 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: it was so bad. And then their offensive line when 246 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: it's good, they're decent. So it might not matter Cal 247 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: like it could be a dumpster fire regardless. But I 248 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: think I think with Cal, if the young kid wins, 249 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: Devin Brown, he can't. He's not gonna win anything. If 250 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: the young kid wins, it might give them just more variants, 251 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:39,599 Speaker 1: higher ceiling, more excitement. Alabama, I'm very curious to watch. Yeah, Like, 252 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: if can Russell win that job, I mean he probably 253 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: has the highest ceiling of the bunch. And then you 254 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: have another kid who knows the offense, who knows Grubbs offense, 255 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: who comes from Washington. But then you have Ty Simpson 256 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: who's been with the program. 257 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 2: I don't know. 258 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: I mean, can Russell win it this early? Does he 259 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 1: win it during the season. I'm curious to watch what 260 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: happens with album. 261 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 2: At the beginning of the year. Grub is going to 262 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 2: go with the one who makes him most comfortable, and 263 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 2: it's probably going to be his guy, right, the one 264 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 2: that's played under him. And I mean, I hear ty 265 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 2: Simpson is not really separating himself. So we'll see when 266 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 2: camp comes around. But don't you really kind of hold 267 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 2: on to your to your five star do you hold 268 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 2: on to Keilan Russell and and just kind of whip 269 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 2: him out in the middle of sec play and say 270 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 2: oooh yeah, mofos, Like then we've had this back here 271 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 2: the whole time. Here's Keilon Russell and Ryan Williams just 272 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 2: making all your secondary you know, look like, you know, 273 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: falling on the dance floor. So I don't know when 274 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: they bring him in. I'm not sure that they do 275 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: for the first half of the season. 276 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not that high on Simpson, like my but 277 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: if Russell wins the job, and because Divor's a smart guy, 278 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: Grubs smart guy. If he wins the job this early, 279 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: I think that says a lot about him, and it 280 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: also could just say that, like Simpson has been really bad. 281 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: But I don't know, Mike, Mike raise the ceiling for 282 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: Albama that you because there's a lot of other pieces 283 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: in place with that team. And I think with the Grub, 284 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: I think the Grub higher was smart. I think it 285 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: was the Boar was kind of hammed. They're like the 286 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: Boar is always done? Is one now? He was kind 287 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: of hamstrung by what Nolroe was last year and like 288 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: what they could do offensively. But there were some things 289 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: I didn't expect from the Boor last year, like the 290 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: Vandy game, they didn't seem prepared. The Michigan Bowl game 291 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: was very puzzling, like that's a game they just looked 292 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: like they didn't show up for. There was a couple 293 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: of games where it was kind of a disappointing from 294 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: a preparation perspective. But I still trust the Boards, one 295 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: of the best coaches in college football. 296 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 2: Not his roster either, right, yeah you got out. 297 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 298 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 2: You look at the schedule though, or like are you 299 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 2: bringing Keelon in for Florida State? Maybe not? You're not 300 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 2: definitely not bringing anything at Ulm. I meant Wisconsin's that 301 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: it's going to be a grinding game where you're probably 302 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 2: just gonna run the ball behind with two great backs 303 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: and a great offensive line, and then Georgia. Do you 304 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 2: hold him off until you and Georgia have bye weeks 305 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 2: and you play September twenty seventh, and then you bring 306 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: keeling it. Maybe that's the spot. But trying to project 307 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: where he comes in in the season, maybe he doesn't 308 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 2: get a lick of film until September twenty seventh. It's 309 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 2: gonna be interesting. 310 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: Bam Alabama Florida State. I'm extreme looking forward to that 311 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: game so much. People like, you know, the Florida State 312 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: went two and ten last year. They've been and there's 313 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: a ton of change. They've been sitting on that season 314 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: for being told off bad. They suck. There's a lot 315 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: of new players, but they're gonna come out with like 316 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: and then anything that you have, anything that novelle has 317 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: right any They're they're coming out with it in that game, 318 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: like and it's at home, it's in Tallahassee, Like, you're 319 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: gonna get Florida State's every everything, the kitchen sink. Is 320 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: it enough? I don't know if there's certainly questions on 321 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: that roster. Costianos is even he's kind of talking a 322 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: little shit. I think he fits well with Maazan. Now 323 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: can they throw the ball and we'll see. But then 324 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: and then you had Alabama with these quarterback questions going 325 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: into that game, and they're kind of coming off of 326 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 1: a season where I mean, it was the most losses 327 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: in almost twenty years. They're coming off a season where 328 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: they're they're kind of salty too, right. That's a really 329 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: intriguing game and passed on It's yeah, very intriguing kind 330 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: of storylines. That's so I'm looking forward to that game. 331 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: Auburn Baylor is really interesting, like just for the ceiling 332 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: of both those teams. That could swing the win totals 333 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: for both as well. K State I was State week 334 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: zero unfortunately, that could have like a huge impact. As 335 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: we talked about earlier in Part one. I assume for 336 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: view of what they paid them, is gonna win it. 337 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: But maybe Horn is in the mix. Michigan. Is Michigan 338 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: gonna roll with Underwood week one right off the bat? 339 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: They got some hard games early, or this is gonna 340 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: be Davis is gonna be Keen speaking of young quarterbacks, 341 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: is Maryland right off the bat lastly has done this 342 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: before with freshman quarterbacks. Got a talented kid, there are 343 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: they gonna go with Jeffers right off the bat? Notre Dame. 344 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: I assume car is gonna win it. And then Tennessee 345 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: is very similar to Alabama in that you have like 346 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: the guy who I think is the most talented is 347 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: the least experienced, and mctyre with mcclinskey, I think that 348 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: is his name. He's back. He was in the system 349 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: last year, so he knows the system. And then you 350 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: have Aguilar, who, by the way, he's not going to 351 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: SC media days. He's just bring a quarterback and he's 352 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: not bringing him. I can't see Aguilar like getting Tennessee 353 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: to a very high level this year. To turnover prone. 354 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 2: One ratio, yeah, one to one ratio, a big time 355 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 2: throw turnover worth he plays. He's every highlight you see, 356 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 2: there's a bad one. 357 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: So curious to see what Tennessee does after all the 358 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: Nico drama in the off season, So lots of quarterback 359 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: battles much sometimes it says, and then this is like 360 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: where where I really watch in camp? Sometimes it says 361 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: a lot about they could say a lot about a 362 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 1: young kid, like a on a talent that always getting 363 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: this job this early. But then sometimes it can also 364 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: say something about just like who the incumbent or who 365 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: the presumed start is going to be is just is 366 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: a disaster. So it can go one of two ways. 367 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: But sometimes one of the reasons I pay attention to 368 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: those teams is just like where the ceiling for a 369 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: certain team is. And that's why those quarterback battles can matter. 370 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 1: Before we get out of here, let's just go quickly 371 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: through every conference and uh and by the way, for 372 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: our conference previews, which will be out starting July thirty, 373 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: first we'll hit all of them. Every team. Don't worry, 374 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: we'll get the Pack. We'll get the Pack too, in 375 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: there with Mountain West, and then we'll have the Notre 376 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: Dame in with ACC. I think, don't worry if we'll 377 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: get We'll get every team. And there's even new teams 378 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: that keep growing every year in college basketball. It's like 379 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: it's get hard enough of all these movements. I'd spent 380 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: that like it used to be so much easier to 381 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: adjust teams though the summer. Now we just keep adding teams. 382 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: I get Delaware, Missouri State. I think there's a new 383 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 1: team in college basketball. Uh who is it this year? 384 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 2: Uh? 385 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: New Haven? I think I have to update. Don't even 386 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: give me thinking about college basketball. I'm gonna I think 387 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: it's New Haven. It's gonna be in the n AC. 388 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 2: But uh, are you gonna be able to name where 389 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 2: all these teams are from? Yeah? 390 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: That's another thing. I gotta like that there actual like 391 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: the town names. I used to know them all. I don't. 392 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 1: The good thing with with Delaware obviously, No Delaware is 393 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: in new Ark. I mean I grew up. I went 394 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: to high school in Delaware, Missouri State. I know because 395 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: they used to be Ry State. They're they're in college basketball. 396 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: But that's a good question. I got to go through 397 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: and in college basketball, I probably don't know them all anymore. 398 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: But anyway, let's go through all of that. Let's just 399 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: go through every league. Give a click thought or too. 400 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: You can give a win total the future. I thought 401 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: over Archie thought, whatever you want to do start the SEC. 402 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: I think I think already gave my thoughts. It's like 403 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: it's coaching continuity. I don't think there's any new head coaches, 404 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: but quarterback uncertainty. It's kind of how it's off the 405 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: SEC this year. Two of the teams that have a lot, 406 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: two of the teams that I'm high on higher than 407 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: the market it seems, are LSU and Texas A and M. 408 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:38,719 Speaker 1: Not as high on the market. Tennessee, Ole, Miss, South Carolina, Arkansas. 409 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm really worried about South Kna's defense and some other 410 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: positions and Arkansas. Wait to get your full thoughts in 411 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: the SEC episode, but any thoughts on the SEC. 412 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go Oklahoma over six and a half, 413 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 2: a little bit of juice there and make it eight. 414 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 2: I love it there. You do know that I know 415 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: Stutsman can't win the Heisman this year. It's pretty sad. 416 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: I think there's major positive regression on injuries after what 417 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 2: happened offensively last year. The non con I mean Illinois State, Temple, 418 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 2: Kent State. Those are bye weeks. They only have three 419 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 2: true road games since the since red River is kind 420 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 2: of neutral, so and that's South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama. The schedule, 421 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: I think what makes win totals and when where Wyot 422 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 2: was so hard last year, you have to have an 423 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 2: out and with Oklahoma schedule, you haven't out because this 424 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 2: is the best Hedge November forecast you can find Field 425 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 2: gold Dog at Tennessee touchdown, plus faves hosting Missouri and 426 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 2: a pick against LSU to end the season. You're gonna 427 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 2: find ways to get in and out of that six 428 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 2: and a half. I like Oklahoma over, It'll be going 429 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: in the half. 430 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: Big twelve. I mean, what else do you say? It's 431 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: wide open. I'm a Baylor guy, been a Bailor guy 432 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: all summer. I mean, every team is like six to 433 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: one to win it. I have a long shot in 434 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 1: the Big twelve. By the way, teaser yeah wait, let's wait, Yeah, 435 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to save it for the Big twelve episode. 436 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: I have a long shot double digits this guy. 437 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 2: You're coming out with West Virginia, aren't you. 438 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: No, it's not less okay, but uh, I'm the Bailor 439 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: guy unders. I mean, I'm in Colorado BYU. I might, 440 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't know if I want 441 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: to fade DYLI him. 442 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 2: But by the way, we're the only I think we're 443 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 2: the only podcast. I didn't like Jake Gretzlaf, so I don't. 444 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 2: I don't think that really mattered to us too. Much. 445 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: Yea, I wish I bet the under when it was out. 446 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: I should have EYU, Like you have sex, you're out, 447 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: so like there was no even if it came out that, 448 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: like you drop the lawsuit, then you have to just 449 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: say like it was consensual, but then you're out anyway, 450 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 1: So like I should have bet the underwinning and then 451 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: but uh, that obviously got hit hard, kind of like 452 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: the Arizona over. But any thoughts in the Big Twelve. 453 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna take a stab on a conference future 454 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 2: and you said everybody's six to one, they're six to one. 455 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take Utah to win the Big Twelve at 456 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: six to one because there's so much that I like 457 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: about besides Beck and Dampier coming in from New Mexico 458 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 2: an offensive line that ranks as a top ten national unit. 459 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 2: Dam Pierre created fifty four miss tackles on the ground 460 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 2: at New Mexico last year. If you take how many 461 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 2: carries he had and you look at what his projection 462 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 2: would be if he ran as many times as Ashton genty, 463 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 2: they have the same mistackle force rate per snap. It's 464 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 2: insane how this kid moves. Once you get past that, 465 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 2: remember Big twelve plays nine games. They have five at 466 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 2: home Texas Tech. They're off a bye against Arizona State, Colorado, Sinsey, 467 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 2: Kansas State. Utah is going to host Kansas State and 468 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 2: rice Ecles in late November. The Wildcats will be coming 469 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: off back to back travel. The Utes are going to 470 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 2: be off a bye in late November. That is a 471 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 2: monster game against Kansas State. All the advantages in the 472 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,719 Speaker 2: world for Utah. Utah gets a bye week before they 473 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 2: go to Baylor. That's a huge game. It should be 474 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 2: ten point phaves go into West Virginia and by the way, 475 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 2: it doesn't apply to this bet, but that week one 476 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 2: against Nico and UCLA, I mean you're gonna put Nico 477 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 2: at uc LA system with a new offensive coordinator against 478 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,479 Speaker 2: a four to two five Morgan Scalley, I've already got 479 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 2: my money in on the US for that game. So 480 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 2: Utah six to one for Big twelve. 481 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: For me, I'm married about condemn here. Stay healthy for 482 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: a full seasoning what he does, because you need his legs. 483 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: He still can improve as a passer. Yeah, there's some 484 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: deficiencies there, but when he's the most dangerous, especially in 485 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: that offense, you're bringing over his it's gonna be in 486 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 1: the same scheme, his legs, The schedule is gonna get 487 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: a lot tougher. Now can you hold up? Hate to 488 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: break it to you. We just got over Cam Rising. 489 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll be talking about is Dan Fear playing this 490 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: week all season with injuries? Hopefully not? But uh, let's 491 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: go to Big ten similar to SEC, which I don't 492 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: think is a coincidence. Head coaching stability quarterback questions. I mean, 493 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: I think you only have five of the eighteen teams 494 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: have a quarterback that is to presume starter that started 495 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 1: at the beginning of last year. I think you got 496 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: what Illinois, Penn State, Rutgers, Michigan State were only before 497 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: because USC might have took over late in the year. Oh, 498 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: Rayola is the fifth. Yeah, I like USC, as you 499 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: mentioned before. Is this the year with Nebraska? I kind 500 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: of like Nebraska and that's all I'll say. I'll save 501 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: my future. But Nebraska, I think they can fix their 502 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: special teams, which I think that they might have. Maybe 503 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: they could finally win some close games. I mean that 504 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: the stats for their close games are unfathomable. They've since 505 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: like since twenty eighteen, they've lost like thirty four one 506 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: possession games. The next team is like twenty five by 507 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: any thoughts in the Big Ten. 508 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna save it for the Big Ten podcast, 509 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 2: but I'll go ahead and get it out there. I'm 510 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 2: gonna take Michigan to make the Big Ten Championship game 511 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 2: at four to one. It's probably because I don't think 512 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,479 Speaker 2: our app has to make the championshi game, so I'm 513 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 2: probably going to put it in. 514 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: At all if you can get them up. 515 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So let's talk about Michigan real quick, because 516 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 2: I really kind of wanted to save the love, but 517 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: I think other people are going to push this number 518 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 2: a little bit, and uh so I want to get 519 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 2: out of have it. This is the easiest strength of 520 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 2: schedule of any Big Ten team by far. No Penn State, 521 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 2: no Oregon, no Indiana, no Illinois. The game against Ohio 522 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 2: State is in ann Arbor. Bryce Underwood getting Brent Venable's 523 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 2: defense o US defense in week two, I think that 524 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 2: helps prepare him for what is an extremely soft Big 525 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 2: Ten schedule. I project Michigan is a three t D 526 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 2: favorite and four straight Big Ten games and late in 527 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 2: the season. Late in the season, listen to this, they'd 528 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 2: be twenty one point favorites against Michigan State, Perdue, Northwestern, 529 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 2: and Maryland. What a cake? I think, could you not 530 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: line them up and knock them down any better? For Michigan, 531 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: they're going to be so fresh towards the end of 532 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 2: the season, potentially the best defensive front seven and fbs. 533 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 2: Their top two tacklers return at linebacker to having making 534 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 2: Edges and TJ. Guy and Derek Moore. I have no 535 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 2: questions about the defense. I think Bryce Underwood is the 536 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: question when does he play? I think he starts day one, 537 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 2: and I think the experience against Ou and Week two 538 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 2: and Invenables defense is going to pay off in what 539 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 2: is one of the softest Big Ten schedules you can find. 540 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm not quite there, but we'll say that for a 541 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: Big Ten episode. I do think people are underestimating the 542 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: impact of the loss. That they're into your defensive lineman, 543 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: but their linebacker is gonna go. Their edge rushers would 544 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: be good. Their defense is gonna be good if their 545 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: offense is the question for me, their offensive line, their receivers, 546 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 1: obviously the quarterback. I don't like their coordinator, but we'll 547 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: argue about that later. Did we have an acc you've already. 548 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: There's my biggest question with the ACC. It's pretty crazy. 549 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: If you go down the list, how many teams do 550 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: you feel there's so many teams where I'm like the 551 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: defensive backs. The secondary is a huge question mark. I 552 00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: just look at all the losses you have done. There's 553 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: a lot of guys. 554 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: You know. 555 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: Louisville lost Riley. I mean they lost their entire secondary 556 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: of Florida State, they lost Thomas to the NFL. Georgia 557 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: Tech they lost a couple of starters. Miami they bring 558 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: Frederick back, lost everyone else. SMU the safeties are good, 559 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: but they lost McGill and Crossley. Clemson they do return 560 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: a lot, but they lost Nickens to the NFL. Hit 561 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: lost their best corner by far and their best safety 562 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: by far. UNC rebuilt NC State rebuilt Duke. They get 563 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: Rivers who shut down corner, but they lost Stinton and Pickett. 564 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: Moore's back at safety as well. Bot Tech lost Strong 565 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: with the NFL. Three others they're rebuilt. QES has one 566 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: starter back. Virginia lost Sanker, their best safety to the NFL. 567 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: They still experienced at safety. The corners a question wake. 568 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: Rebuilt Cal lose three to the NFL. In the secondary, Yeah, BC, 569 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: they have questions in the trenches, which is worry about 570 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: VC is like one of the ones I feel the 571 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: best about with their secondary. They get some guys back. 572 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: They were hurt, and they had some young guys. I 573 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: think that's the halfway influence. But they had some young 574 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: guys who look good stepping up for injurr guys last 575 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: year and they get everyone back. So a lot of 576 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: questions about the defensive backfields, which I think is going 577 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: to go a long way, and who can figure that 578 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: out in a league that has you know, love Nick 579 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: Jennings now mensa deck Uh what Lopez? Yeah, I mean 580 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: we'll see. There's there's some quarterbacks, some teams that can 581 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: throw it around. Defensive backs is like what I'm really 582 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: trying to figure out this summer. Some quarterback battles that 583 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: I'm watching. I might be selling Duke. To be honest 584 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 1: with you, I can get into that. In the a SEC. 585 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: I know that they're spending. I know that they ideas 586 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: did a great job in Week one, but you don't 587 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: talk about a team that got lucky. Holy moly, they're 588 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: like seven coin flip games and they won them. All, 589 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to bring off that Northwestern game at Northway. 590 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 2: You bring it over that Friday night Northwestern game. I'm 591 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 2: about to throw up on that one too. 592 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: The one game that got unlucky and was SMU but 593 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: like they had had six turnovers in that gay yeah 594 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: so yeah, Hugh. So I don't know how qu S 595 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: gets the six wins, but I don't know, uh BC. 596 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be disastering the trenches cal. I 597 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: think it's just gonna be a dumpster fire. I think 598 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: Wait's gonna be a dumpster fire. And I might sell 599 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: Clemson any thoughts in the ACC. I would have bet 600 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: Clemson not to win the ACC. Is that out there? 601 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? That's out there? 602 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: Where's where is that? At? 603 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 2: Ek? But oh, I take that back, there's a to 604 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 2: not make the playoff, So it really kind of serves 605 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 2: as the same thing as not winning the ACC. But 606 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 2: then again they could. Yeah, you're gonna have to look 607 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 2: for that, uh. 608 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: I. 609 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 2: And we're gonna have to wait for the ACC podcast 610 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: because I'm between I'm on an angle and I don't 611 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 2: know how to play it, and I'm kind of waiting 612 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 2: for the market to mature and to me there is 613 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: a race for second place in this conference in the ACC, 614 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 2: and the two teams in my opinion are SMU in 615 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 2: Louisville and s MU. I I think they have a 616 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 2: very high floor. I don't think their ceiling is as 617 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 2: high as last year. I don't think they're on the 618 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 2: edge of the playoff. I think they're more about fifteen 619 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 2: to sixteen. But their strength to schedule is seventy fourth 620 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,239 Speaker 2: easiest in the conference outside of Virginia. They return one 621 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,479 Speaker 2: hundred and seventeen stars in the offensive line for Kevin Jennings. 622 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 2: That's the fifteenth highest in the nation. The schedule is 623 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 2: the star of this team again, Like I was hot 624 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 2: on them last year, like calling them for make the 625 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 2: playoff and everybody's laughing at me last year. Like the 626 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 2: schedule is the star again they started. 627 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: The schedule is always their STARSI schedule. 628 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 2: By the way, Yeah, Missouri's going down. SMU starts ACC 629 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 2: play on a bye week hosting Syracuse. I project SMU 630 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 2: as a ten point favorite as a minimum in five 631 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 2: games QS, Stanford, Wake, BC, and col What a schedule. 632 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 2: And then the crown jewel of this is that Louisville 633 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 2: and SMU actually play each other and I can't get 634 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 2: a Game of the year on it. It's the second 635 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 2: to last week the year before Thanksgiving, right, And the 636 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 2: reason why this is perfe for SMU and why I 637 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 2: would slot SMU above Louisville is that SMU is coming 638 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 2: off a bye November twenty second. Louisville has that game 639 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: in between Clemson and Kentucky. That is a primo SMU spot. 640 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 2: That's why I'm firm in my stance, and I think 641 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 2: SMU is the second best team in the ACC. I 642 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 2: don't know if I play them to make the championship 643 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 2: game of plus three twenty or if I wait for 644 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 2: the Game of the Year to come out. Not sure 645 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 2: how to play it, but at SMU Louisville game is 646 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 2: a massive spot for SMU and a bad spot for Louisville. 647 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: I will have an ACC future. It will not be Clemson, 648 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: it will not be SMU, it will likely not be Miami. 649 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 2: I'll better not be Miami. 650 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 1: I will save the reveal for the ACC episode. All right, 651 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: let's get to some G five. Let's got Mountain West. 652 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: I'm an Air Force guy this year, like they're over, 653 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: What do you got? 654 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go Hawaii under six and a half. 655 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 2: I project them four point three. Timmy Chang is two 656 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 2: and fifteen on the road. They're losing Segar. They need 657 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 2: Micah Alejandro to they need him to. 658 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: All head you look good, look good. I'll tell you 659 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: that it is one start. 660 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 2: He needs to step up a little bit.

I mean they're consecutively 663 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 2: from week zero going on. And what is that September 664 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 2: twenty seventh game? A road trip to air Force, like 665 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 2: your sixth consecutive game, and you're going to triple option 666 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 2: air Force and Elevation, and then they travel off the 667 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 2: island the second half of their schedule, they travel off 668 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 2: the island like three or four weeks and Mountain West 669 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 2: play to Colorado State, Elevation, San Jose State, and UNLB. 670 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,720 Speaker 2: I have them favored only three home games Sam Houston, 671 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 2: Portland State, and field goal faves to the electric San 672 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 2: Diego State team. I don't know under six and a half, 673 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 2: Like I know it's Juice that's going to an app 674 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: right after this podcast. That is an obscene number. I 675 00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 2: would take under five and a half. I'd take under five. 676 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,479 Speaker 2: I mean that's I'm not even close. 677 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm not there on the wife. We'll debate that later. 678 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: San Diego State. I kind of like over hunders as 679 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: of right now, you and I'll be called out of 680 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:16,240 Speaker 1: state Wyoming in the mix selling those three teams AAC. 681 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: The Charlotte over is tempting. Yeah, I got a future 682 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: in the AASA that I'll save. Wait, Mark, who's doing 683 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: the let me see if that's you, it's not me. 684 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: There's one episode that A see. Okay, I got a 685 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: good future in the AC. I'll say for that episode, okay. 686 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: So you want me to get mine in? 687 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: And then I'm kind of a seller of Army this year. 688 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 2: I can't believe you just said that out loud. It's 689 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 2: Cammy Stucky, not Cammy Wilson. So I'll just be real quick. 690 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: I a low hanging fruit. Sorry. Temple Under three and 691 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 2: a half. Casey Keeler is brought in to rebuild the program, 692 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 2: the recruiting and the transfer portal because everything with that 693 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 2: program is completely broken. New schemes on both sides of all. 694 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 2: Tyler Walker and Brian Smith at the coordinator positions. Potential 695 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,919 Speaker 2: four wins that could beat this. Here's the potential four wins, 696 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 2: the only ones on the schedule for Temple minus two 697 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 2: and a half in the opener against UMass Howard Week two, 698 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 2: Charlotte's to pick him on October eighteenth on the road, 699 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 2: but then they go back to back travel on the 700 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 2: road again October twenty fifth to Tulsa is what I 701 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 2: have projected as a four point doc. They have to 702 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: win all four of those games to beat this win total. 703 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 2: So I like under three and a half. It's only 704 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 2: juice minus one fifteen. 705 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 1: Temple ends the Venables tenure with a win at home 706 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: over Oklahoma what'll wed Oh kidding, but that will be 707 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: seventy years out of the fiable game. That's like the 708 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: Pittman losing Arc State Ventibles. This is the Temple you 709 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: leave them in Philly. Yeah, Conference to essay, I can't 710 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: say it out loud, Middle anything about Middle Tennessee over, 711 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: but I might be buying UTEP in some way. Unders. 712 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 1: I mean Jack State and Sam Easton I think are 713 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: going to be disasters this year. They have to take 714 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: a massive step back. I mean the market obviously knows that, 715 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: but I might not be enough yet anything on Conference USA. 716 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 2: I actually went with a week one total. I'm gonna 717 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 2: put a little half unit in because I know totals 718 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 2: aren't available everywhere, but I'm gonna do Sam Houston Western 719 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 2: Kentucky over sixty one and a half key numbers in 720 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 2: total sixty two and sixty five. I'm going to keep 721 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 2: an eye on weather, extreme heat or win to see 722 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,919 Speaker 2: if that'll bother it. But when you have a Phil 723 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 2: long Go offense, which is generally top ten and tempo 724 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 2: every stop. He's been at Ole Miss, UNC tried to 725 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 2: do that at Wisconsin, and the Western Kentucky quarterback Maverick McIver, 726 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: he'll be slinging from the opening snap. I see absolutely 727 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,720 Speaker 2: zero defense being played in this game. These two teams 728 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 2: project if you go and look at unit rankings, they 729 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 2: project as having the worst defensive front sevens and all 730 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 2: of Conference USA, which means the first in the nation 731 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 2: at FBS. So what I see is not so much 732 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 2: the offenses are going to be functioning like Longo's offense. 733 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 2: I'm not sure is just going to function from the 734 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: second that they take the snap. I think Western Kentucky will. 735 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 2: But what I see is what's an average game ten 736 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 2: to eleven possessions. I think there could be like eighteen 737 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: possessions in this game. I think there's gonna be a 738 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 2: lot of three and outs. I think we're going bombs 739 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 2: and if it's not, we're three and out, we're punting. 740 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: I think there could be like eighteen to twenty possessions 741 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 2: in this game. That's good enough for me to take 742 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 2: a shot on the over sixty one and a. 743 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: Half sun Belt. I know you have a lot of 744 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: love for Southern Miss, which I'm sure you'll mention the 745 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 1: old Southern Mess, or I should say the new Southern 746 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: Miss is Marshall. I'm selling Marshall my favorite windowtal so far. 747 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: Under Marshall, I had five, and. 748 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 2: Tony Gibson, we love him. 749 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna go like three and nine, so 750 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: I think there's still room. It was five, and I 751 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 1: think it's five now everywhere. But under. 752 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 2: You know how we bet San Diego State overs, I 753 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 2: think we should be betting Marshall unders every week. With 754 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 2: his defense, with his defense and no offense, I think 755 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 2: every game is an under. 756 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: They did lose their entire defense, though, but a Sunbelt. 757 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: You love Southern Mess, I do. 758 00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 2: If you don't have him yet, I think fifteen to 759 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 2: one is to stop point. I took forty to one 760 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 2: back in May, essentially Charles hoffbringing just bringing everything from 761 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 2: Marshall over, including his quarterback Brayln Braxton, he I think 762 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 2: is the best quarterback in the Sunbelt and defensive Endjim 763 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 2: on Tap might be the best addresser in the conference. 764 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 2: So Southern Miss is the new Marshal. Forty to one's gone. 765 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 2: See if you can find a thirty to one, twenty 766 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 2: five to one is so good, I probably stop buying 767 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,279 Speaker 2: a fifteen to one. 768 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 1: All right, you're doing that episode, so we'll say some 769 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: more than that. Lastly, the Mac oh Boy, I can't 770 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: spoil anything before my beloved Mac episode, but might be 771 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: selling Ohio, which I was so dead wrong on last 772 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: year Mac manifesto. I stole a lot of work to 773 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: doing Mac. I spent a lot of time digging into 774 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: like the injuries in the Fall I mean in the 775 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: in camp are huge two in the Mac. Yeah, so 776 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: I still have a lot of work to do in 777 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 1: the Mac. I'm gonna take my but what do you got? 778 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take my shot and then listen to you 779 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 2: very carefully. I might even try to steal your notes 780 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 2: before you go live. But I'm going sch Michigan twenty 781 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 2: to one. I just cannot get over the fact that 782 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 2: Matt drink call comes from Army. He's been the main 783 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 2: driver in that offensive shift for Army. That kind of 784 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 2: one of the. 785 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: Reasons I don't like Army that I'm a little alone. 786 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 2: Right right, Yeah, So all of a sudden, CMU, the 787 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 2: fire up Chips is going to run this offense the 788 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 2: same triple elements at CMU and you and I just 789 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 2: said earlier on these two podcasts, you want to get gimmicky, 790 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 2: do it in the G five. You can flip the 791 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 2: league upside down. Central Michigan out there is twenty to one. 792 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 2: Jordan Quitkowski returns at linebacker. He was all second team MAC. 793 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 2: And there has to be positive regression to the turnovers 794 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 2: last year the Chips were second TOM the worst in 795 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,320 Speaker 2: the nation and turnover margin minus seventeen. That has to 796 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 2: flip itself. I don't have a lot to say about 797 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 2: the personnel and offense that can run this drink All system, 798 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 2: but the fact that you're practicing the triple every single 799 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 2: day and the MAC teams now have to like pause 800 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 2: themselves and defend this shit. Like to me, that is 801 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 2: worth a long shot future Central Michigan twenty to one 802 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 2: going in the app here today. 803 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: I might agree with you. I have a lot, she said. 804 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 2: I didn't want to spoil that for you, but that 805 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 2: I mean you, Oh the rules. You can't run this 806 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 2: gimmicky offense at this conference. It's gonna work. It's gonna 807 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 2: it's gonna bend some shit. 808 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: I love much more to say that on MAC manifesto Mac, 809 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: But all right, that's enough. We've done. Yeah we have 810 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,360 Speaker 1: we have. We good talk for hours, but we have 811 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: to do.
