It was a slight vertical, but you got 17 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 4: up a little bit. It was pretty impressive for me, 18 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 4: like Phil Mickelson winning his first Master's. That kind of vertical. 19 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 2: I have no vertical, but anyway, it's uh, it's you know, 20 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: we're down to the wire here in college football.

But you 26 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 2: get to that point of the college football season where 27 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: every game now really starts to count absolutely, and what we're. 28 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 3: Seeing across the country. 29 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 2: You know, we obviously have the traditional rivalries this week, 30 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: next week, some of these big games that you throw 31 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,279 Speaker 2: out the records, it doesn't matter. 32 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 3: I know. 33 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: I'm going to give you my own personal experience with 34 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: USC and UCLA. So my dad went to USC. I 35 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 2: graduated USC. My mom attended UCLA. She would have graduated UCLA, 36 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: but she dropped out a semester early to have me. 37 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: She was a young mom, and so I was raised 38 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: in a house where it was USC and UCLA. I 39 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: was a Trojan. I mean I was die hard when 40 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: I was a kid, way back in the day when 41 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: USC football with John McKay was don coming in and 42 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: UCLA basketball John Wooden was dominant on the LA scene. 43 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: Everyone likes to follow the winner, so it was like 44 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: USC football, UCLA basketball. 45 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 3: Not me. I was usue across the roard. 46 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 2: But I ended up going to UCLA and then it 47 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: didn't take long for me to figure it out. So wait, Steve, 48 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 2: how did you end up a UCLA? It's very simple story. 49 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: I didn't have the money go to USC. My dad 50 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: went on the GI bill. I didn't have any GI 51 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: bill to get me into USC. Show you how incredible 52 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 2: this was UCLA. 53 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 3: This is back in. 54 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: Nineteen seventy six ninety anyways, it was tuition at UCLA. 55 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: UCLA six hundred and thirty dollars a year, six hundred 56 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 2: and thirty dollars a year a year, two hundred and 57 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 2: ten dollars a quarter for a full schedule. Even when 58 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: I graduated after five years, it was never more than 59 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: eight hundred dollars a year. 60 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 3: So you're saying your student loans wasn't that bad. 61 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: I didn't have student uns. My dad could actually paid 62 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 2: the bill on that one. So it was a much 63 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 2: different for an era. But you know I have I 64 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: have been a part of this rivalry. In fact, starting 65 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:08,279 Speaker 2: with my freshman year at UCLA, I attended in attendance 66 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 2: twenty of the next twenty one USC UCLA games. 67 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 3: Wow. 68 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: And I used to say this about this game, that 69 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 2: my body chemistry was one way three hundred and sixty 70 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 2: four days of the year, and then there was the 71 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: day of the USCUCLA game. 72 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: Now I don't feel quite that way anymore. 73 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 2: But as soon as I see both these teams on 74 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 2: the field together, whether it's at the rosewol whether it's 75 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 2: a coliseum, I mean, I have history that dates back 76 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: a long time in this rivalry. So and I know 77 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: whether it's you know, the Iron Bowl or the Civil 78 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: War or the Apple Cup or whatever your rivalry is 79 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: listening out there, you know exactly what I mean. 80 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 4: It's funny because right Alabama boy grew up in Alabama, 81 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 4: grew up in Birmingham Iron Bowl. I was one hundred 82 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 4: percent legit, all about the Crimson tide. 83 00:03:59,720 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 3: Right. 84 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 4: It's funny how that changes when it's time to make 85 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 4: your own decision as not only a teenager, but you know, 86 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 4: you start to reach that adulthood and you have to 87 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 4: make decisions for yourself. So in my recruiting, in my 88 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 4: recruiting trail, I was a quarterback. I went to Auburn, 89 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 4: you know, I went to their camp, went to their 90 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 4: quarterback camps, went through their system. The whole time, was 91 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 4: probably going to sign there bleeding Alabama Crimson time, right, 92 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 4: and so hoping they came in at the tail end 93 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 4: to come in and swoop me up a little bit, 94 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: and so they did. We had a gown on my 95 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 4: team that was the number one player in the country 96 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 4: and they weren't. Alabama weren't recruiting me as a quarterback, 97 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 4: but they were recruiting me as a safety. And any 98 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 4: team that came to me wanted me to play safety. 99 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 4: I just kind of kicked them to the side. It 100 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 4: didn't matter who it was, no matter how much I 101 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 4: loved Alabama whatever. Alburn wanted to sign me. Alabama wanted 102 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 4: to sign me late as an athlete safety. Louisville came in. Obviously, 103 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 4: I went to Louisville. But the decision to you know, 104 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 4: just dits my childhood team to go to the team 105 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 4: that was offering me more, a better opportunity I was. 106 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 4: I was gone hold with and so you know, ended 107 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 4: up not you know, scrapping both teams. As I went 108 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 4: on to college, and we. 109 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 2: Have got a LA four game, a fumble by USC 110 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: recovered by UCLA, a scooping score for the Bruins, and 111 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 2: they are now running away with this game. By the way, 112 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: this is not what I expected today. So I missed 113 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: the play. Let's watch the replay here Caleb Williams. And 114 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 2: this is it for Caleb Williams, because I can promise you, 115 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: even though us he has a bowl game, he will 116 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: not play in that bowl game. So we're watching a replay. 117 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 2: USC's starting to drive deep in their own territory. Their 118 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: running back runs up the middle and he is going 119 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: to get stripped of the ball and it's picked up 120 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: a Ucla running for a short touchdown. So UCLA with 121 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 2: an extra point will extend their lead to twenty eight 122 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: to ten. 123 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 3: Wow. You know last week we saw Caleb Williams. 124 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: Cry on the sideline, yes after they lost to Oregon 125 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 2: up in Eugene, which officially eliminated them from any chance 126 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: to get to the Pac twelve Championship game. And if 127 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: his career does end today with a loss to UCLA, 128 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 2: forget draft stock. Okay, let's just talk about the psyche 129 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 2: of a young player. When Kleb Williams won the Heisman 130 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 2: Trophy last year, and obviously they were coming off a 131 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 2: very disappointing law lost to Utah in the Pac twelve 132 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: Championship game that knocked him out of the playoffs, and 133 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 2: then of course the defensive collapsed in that Bowl game 134 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: against Delane. But he came back this year with the 135 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: hype that USC was absolutely in the conversation to get 136 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 2: to the playoff. That was his mindset coming back for 137 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: another year, and of course he was. 138 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 3: The NFL was not an option for him this year. 139 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: But to go from that to a un a loss 140 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 2: here now trailing UCLA twenty eight to ten and go 141 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 2: seven to five, yeah. 142 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 3: It's a colossal failure for USC. So what are you 143 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: getting with Caleb Williams? Skill wise? 144 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: Obviously he's not responsible for one of the worst defenses 145 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 2: in the country, Let's make that infinitely clear. And his 146 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: numbers are still elite numbers, not quite to the level 147 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: we saw a year ago, but still elite numbers. But 148 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: psychologically going to the NFL and joining a bad team, 149 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 2: whether it's Arizona or whatever team ends up with that 150 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: Beck or Dare I say, New England, what are you 151 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: getting right now with Caleb Williams? 152 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the psyche part of it, you can 153 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 4: wipe that clean for him. He's so talented and obviously 154 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 4: he's going to be around players that are definitely more 155 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 4: skilled all around across the board on the next level, right, 156 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 4: so he could raise their play and they could raise 157 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 4: this play simultaneously. I think in college what we're starting 158 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 4: to see is obviously, besides USC being a disgrace for 159 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 4: what they're putting out there defensively, one player can't elevate 160 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 4: any team to a point where you mask huge flalls 161 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 4: and we have flaws. The way that USC does it 162 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 4: shows and this is what's happening with college football. I 163 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 4: think you started to put this the onus on these 164 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 4: quarterbacks and these special players. I mean, look at Colorado, right, 165 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 4: Trivis Hunter one of the best players in college, but 166 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 4: you can't really appreciate or see that in the team work, 167 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 4: in the framework of a team that's not ready to compete. 168 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 4: And USC is one of those same teams. So I 169 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 4: think psychologically he'll be fine. Yeah, he should be okay. 170 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: And like I'm predicting right now, since USC is bowl 171 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 2: eligible and we'll go to a bowl game, whatever that 172 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 2: might be, I would say it would be ninety nine 173 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: point nine to nine percent chance he will not play 174 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: in that bowl game because that's what you do unless 175 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: you're in the playoffs. What is the reason to play 176 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 2: in a bowl game when you expected to be the 177 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: number one pick in the NFL Draft. So again, USC 178 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 2: trail in Ucla nine minutes ago to the third quarter. 179 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 3: Not over yet. 180 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 2: Maybe he can engineer or comeback, but they're in a 181 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 2: Depolls trailing twenty eight to ten. Just quickly, you mentioned 182 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 2: Colorado and they were the top of the college football world, 183 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: a three and oho start, coach Prime sort of rewriting 184 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 2: the landscape of college football. After last night's fifty six 185 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 2: to fourteen blowout loss in Pullman against Washington State, they 186 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 2: sit alone at the bottom of the Pac twelve standings 187 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 2: with a one and seven conference record, no bowl eligibility, 188 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: that's out the window. Most likely they're on the road 189 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: against Utah next week. Four and eight is what they're 190 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 2: staring at right now to finish this season. Does that 191 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 2: change at all any of the impact that we talked 192 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 2: about earlier this season with Deon Sanders coming to Colorado. 193 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 4: It doesn't, because we talked I think I was actually 194 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 4: in with the show with you early. I think they 195 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 4: were two to zero, three to zero, and the impact 196 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 4: that he had on that school. I mean I was 197 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 4: walking around California seeing people at games with Colorado's sweatshirts 198 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 4: and apparel on. 199 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 3: So they out they sold out the rose ball exactly. 200 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 3: That was an UCLA fan showing up exactly. 201 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 4: So I think the attention and the awareness brought to 202 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 4: the program definitely a win. I don't think anybody, really, 203 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 4: anybody that really knew football, thought this team would win 204 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 4: seven games, right. I think being four and seven now 205 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 4: whatever they are, is a disappointment from where they started, 206 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 4: but I don't think it hurts the long run. I 207 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 4: think Dion's going to be able to recruit, which he will, 208 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 4: and get his guys into that program, and I still 209 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 4: think they're going to be okay as far as this 210 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 4: season goes. Disappointment on how it started, but I don't 211 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 4: think any sane person who knows sports thought this team 212 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 4: would be, you know, a team that really contended down 213 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 4: the stretch. 214 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 2: Quick note about this UCLA USC game. I've been told 215 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 2: by many sources that Chip Kelly is toast after this season, 216 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 2: it's over. In fact, if they were to lose today 217 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: to USC, they still have one game or many against 218 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 2: Cal next week before they go to their bowl game. 219 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 2: The word was, if they lose today, he's gone after today. 220 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: If he wins today, they'll wait until after the Cow game. 221 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 2: But as they move on, to the Big Ten and again. 222 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: He's been there six years. He has a five hundred record. 223 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 2: The worst part of it is the Rose Bulls empty. 224 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 4: What if chip Kelly? What if Chip Kelly actually packed 225 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 4: his bags and didn't coacht the bowl game? 226 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 3: Would that be suitable? 227 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: Chip Kelly will not be coaching whatever the bowl game 228 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 2: is for UCLA.

Week eleven in the National Football 280 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 2: League breaking it all down as he does better than 281 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: anyone on the planet, is our Fox Sports Radio NFL 282 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: insider Adam Kaplan. And Adam, let's start with a team 283 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 2: that I picked to win the Super Bowl this year preseason, 284 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 2: and that would. 285 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 3: Be the Cincinnati Bengals. 286 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: I think we can scratch that one off after the 287 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 2: season ending injury obviously. 288 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 3: To Joe Burrow. 289 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: But what is the story circulating about Burrow and an 290 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 2: injury before the game that was not reported by the Bengals. 291 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: And then, I mean, they claim he was perfectly fine, 292 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 2: that he got hurt during the game. But is the 293 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: NFL going to push this investigation now that Burrow is 294 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 2: officially out for the season. 295 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, they actually My understanding is they're still going to 296 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 7: go through with it. 297 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 3: Number one. Number two. 298 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 7: So when I first started coming league the late nineties, 299 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 7: the rule was this if you were treated. If a 300 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 7: player is being treated for an injury, even in this case, 301 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 7: wearing some sort of contraption for the player's right risk 302 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 7: or right hand, you're required to list the player on 303 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 7: the injury report. Over the years, it changed. If a 304 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 7: player would practice fully, he did not have to be 305 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 7: listed on the injury report. That's what I've seen in 306 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 7: recent years. I don't agree with it, but that could 307 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 7: be the Bengals cover for this. 308 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 3: We'll have to see. 309 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 7: We'll have to see what the league says about this. Now, 310 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 7: to me, if it's obvious that he's being treated for something, 311 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 7: he should be on the injury report. Like this has 312 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 7: got to be clarified from the league. I'll be interest 313 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 7: to see what their statement will be in the next 314 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 7: week or so over this. They they'll all have to 315 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 7: announce something now. The Bengals absolutely say that whatever was 316 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 7: going on with his hand or his risk before he 317 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 7: tore the ligaments in the wrist in this game had 318 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 7: nothing to do with this injury that just happened. Whatever 319 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 7: it was completely separate borrow set as well. But moving 320 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 7: this forward here, the only question for them is could 321 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 7: they actually hanging there with Jake Browning to be the 322 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 7: last wildcard. Here's the problem for that. The Bengals lose 323 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 7: the wildcard to the Texans because they lost it home 324 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 7: to them last week. 325 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna looking pretty bleak for them. Cap I 326 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: think the uh, I think Brownian player pretty well put 327 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 4: under the circumstances he was in. But uh yeah, it's 328 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 4: gonna be tough for them to compete with the top 329 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 4: of the AFC North anyway. But let's talk about another 330 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 4: AFC North team. The team they actually faced and lost 331 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 4: to that Thursday, seems to be putting it putting it 332 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 4: all together offensively obviously the number really top ranked defense, 333 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 4: but the offense is starting to put it all together. 334 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 4: With the weapons they have. They just lost Mark Andrews. 335 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 4: How do you see Baltimore moving forward with with the 336 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 4: team minus Mark Andrews. 337 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 7: Yes, so they've done this before. And Andrews couldn't play 338 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 7: last year. It was I say likely because Charlie Kohler, 339 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 7: the other rookie tight end last season, was not available. 340 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 7: He was out due to injury. He was out for 341 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 7: most of the season. Now both are healthy. Caller's really 342 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 7: good player by the way out of Iowa State, and 343 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 7: likely is a better athlete. Look for them to kind 344 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 7: of share the role. And also we should mention Odell 345 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 7: Beckham junior had a huge game. They used them as 346 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 7: a nineer out runner, a deep vertical runner, which shows 347 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 7: you he's over the knee and accle problems that kind 348 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 7: of plagued them over the summer and earlier the season. 349 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 7: That's really good news for them. So they've gotten healthy 350 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 7: at the receiver positions, just without Andrews for the rest 351 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,719 Speaker 7: of the season. In playoffs, no matter how far they go, 352 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 7: it's gonna be a problem. The running game has come 353 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 7: alive here, Kerry, You're right. Their offense looks pretty good. 354 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 7: Their defense, despite having a bunch of no names, still 355 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 7: leads the league in sacks, so they're still really looking 356 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 7: good and they obviously would still be the favorite. But 357 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 7: the team that is so just defining the odds or 358 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 7: the Steelers who got out gain on offense every game 359 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 7: but yet they seem to win. 360 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 361 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 2: Well, and another unpredictable team, the Cleveland Rounds. So last 362 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 2: week was unbelievable. So we're sitting here doing our show 363 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 2: on Sunday, Rich and Deshaun Watson could not have been 364 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 2: worse in the first half. I mean, six for twenty, 365 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 2: he's playing awful, looks like a Ravens blowout win. And 366 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 2: then he goes fourteen for fourteen, perfect second half. 367 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 3: Not only that, big runs and everything else. 368 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 2: We're finally seeing the Deshaun Watson that we saw in 369 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 2: his Houston heyday. And then a couple of days later 370 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 2: he's out for the season. So now you're looking at 371 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 2: the Steelers at the Browns this week. Both these teams 372 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: are in prime position to get into the postseason with 373 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 2: six and three records. But as you mentioned, Kenny Picktt 374 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 2: doesn't wow anybody except for the fact that he's only 375 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 2: thrown four interceptions this year. And now my UCLA guy, 376 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 2: dtr is going to get an opportunity to take over 377 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 2: as the starting quarterback for the Browns. So what do 378 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: we make of these two teams? Are these the two 379 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: worst six and three teams you've ever seen? I mean, 380 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,199 Speaker 2: they've worked with defense, they have a running game, but 381 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 2: they've been getting almost no production out of their quarterbacks 382 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: in a league that's dominated by quarterbacks. 383 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, Watson two weeks, who actually played well this past game. 384 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 7: You talked about it kind of obviously uneven and the 385 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 7: fact that he was able to finish the game with 386 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,719 Speaker 7: two injuries, the highnkel spring which would have kept him 387 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 7: out for to six weeks, and then the shoulder fracture 388 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 7: which is not related to the previous shoulder injury, which 389 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 7: is more towards the rotator cuff. It's remarkable, but yeah, 390 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 7: Thompson Robinson is a really good athlete out of UCLA. 391 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 3: He's kind of raw. 392 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 7: Did not play well and his only start, in fact, 393 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 7: he was awful against Baltimore. That's why they moved to 394 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 7: PG Walker and Walker was inconsistent to say the least. 395 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 7: He kind of struggled touring. Thompson Robinson has looked better 396 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 7: in practice the last two weeks, particularly last week, So 397 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 7: they're gonna give him a shot here, guys, they gonna 398 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 7: they're gonna gi him a shot against a really good 399 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 7: defense of Steelers have a couple of guys injured in 400 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 7: their back end of their defense. Micka Fitzpatrick is out again. 401 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 7: They've done another safety, but they're healthy at corner, which 402 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 7: they had not been earlier in the season. They have 403 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 7: a great pass rush. By the way, the Browns are 404 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 7: super banged up at tackle. They're down at least three 405 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 7: tackles for this game, so that would worry me. But yeah, 406 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 7: Canny Pickett, I'll say this, he does seem to play 407 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 7: well Steve as you said in the fourth quarter though, 408 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 7: especially and doesn't turn it over and they're running the 409 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 7: ball well. Boy, that tanem Jalen Warren, who's a former 410 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 7: undrafted free agent. I was talking to someone with the 411 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 7: Steelers this week who told I didn't realize this. He 412 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 7: was actually he transferred from another school and that's why 413 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 7: he wasn't drafted. And Najie Harris has come a lot here. 414 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 7: So the running game is great, it's just can they 415 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 7: make throws when they need to? And here's the problem, 416 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 7: their faces. The best pass defense of the National Football League. 417 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, both teams are. I don't I wouldn't call them 418 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 4: the worst six and three teams, but I would call 419 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 4: Pittsburgh that though I actually put that, I would put 420 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 4: that laid on Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh is one of those teams 421 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 4: where it just looks ugly. 422 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,880 Speaker 3: Mike Tomlin Man, I know by the way, they don't 423 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 3: like that. 424 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 7: So the guy I spoke with that when I when 425 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 7: he answered the phone and said, hey, winning ugly, how's 426 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 7: it going? And the guy didn't like the kind of 427 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 7: barked in and goes, man, what are you talking about? Yeah, 428 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 7: you know Carrie for being a player, Like the coaches 429 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 7: don't want to hear that win is a win. I 430 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 7: but oh, are we realistic? Yes, we're real sick. It 431 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 7: doesn't look very good. How much longer could they keep 432 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 7: this up? Is kind of what we're going here. 433 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's move let's move along from the AFC North. 434 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 4: I think, yeah, I think we all kind of agree that. Yeah, 435 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 4: the AFC North is out of all the football going 436 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 4: on right now. 437 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 3: There's still the old fashioned ground. 438 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 4: And pound type of football going on in the Black 439 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 4: and Blue Division, But uh, let's move from there and 440 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 4: let's talk about another team that had high expectations. I 441 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 4: didn't have high expectations for them coming in. But you know, 442 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 4: when you have a quarterback named Josh Allen, you tend 443 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 4: to have that. What's going on in Buffalo, you you 444 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 4: move on from the offensive coordinator and put the blame 445 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 4: on him, not the blame on you know, Jaa for 446 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 4: making you know, these these bone head turnovers during the season. 447 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 4: But let's look, what's what's the I guess the prognosis 448 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 4: on this team moving forward? 449 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't think they will make the playoffs. 450 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: But what what do you think? 451 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 452 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 7: I don't either, based on that They've got three major 453 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 7: injuries on defense from all three levels of that defense. 454 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 7: The defense is hanging in there. It's just not as 455 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 7: dominant now. I mean it's it's hanging in there. But 456 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 7: the offense, Josh Allen with some of these interceptions where 457 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 7: he thinks he can make the throw, he doesn't see 458 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 7: the two deep coverage. It's a mistake. Sean McDermott, the 459 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 7: head coach who made a decision to move on from 460 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 7: Ken Dorsey, He's hoping Joe Brady's got a good relationship 461 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 7: with Alan who's got a lot of energy, is hoping 462 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 7: he could reach him. But I'm told that when Brady 463 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 7: was fired with the Panthers two years ago in season 464 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,360 Speaker 7: by the way, with the Panthers by then head coach 465 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 7: Matt Ruhle, that he felt like the playmakers were not 466 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 7: getting the football. And there is a parallel here if 467 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 7: you really look at it. Stefan Diggs's numbers are down 468 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 7: a little bit, Gabe Davis is not getting the ball. 469 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 7: He's also drops some. But the other thing is to 470 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 7: defend Ken Dorsey. The funnel that James Cook had Dalvin's 471 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 7: younger brother. I mean on the first series of the 472 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 7: game last week, that's on James Cook. I mean, it 473 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 7: was a beautifully designed Screenny fumbles it. You can't have 474 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 7: that now. The lack of discipline with Alan with the picks, 475 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 7: that's a problem. And this is where Brian Dable and 476 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 7: Alan worked beautifully together. Brian would get on on There'll 477 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 7: be a lot of goong back and forth, but there 478 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 7: was a healthy respect with each other and Dave bow 479 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 7: was the one who really developed him. And they've not He's, 480 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 7: let's face it, he's not been the same since. And 481 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 7: I don't know that he'll ever get there again. It's uh, 482 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 7: it's turnovers base. But also he has to understand that 483 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 7: there's some throws throw the ball out of bounds or run. 484 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 7: The other thing is, you know they're not designing the 485 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 7: runs were that they were doing earlier this season. 486 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, I told you this last week. I'm 487 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 2: gonna repeat myself this week. 488 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 3: CJ. 489 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 2: Stroud is the most valuable player this season in the NFL. 490 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 3: No player means more to his team than c J. Stroud. 491 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 2: And if this team somehow miraculously makes the playoffs, if 492 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 2: I had a vote, if he continues to put up 493 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 2: the numbers that he's putting up, CJ. Stroud would be 494 00:23:55,800 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: not just Rookie of the Year, I'm talking most valuable player. 495 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: Steve. 496 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 4: Would you double down on that and say Demico Ryans 497 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 4: the coach again? 498 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 3: Absolutely? I mean you, I mean, look at the talent 499 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 3: on this Texans team. 500 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 7: Or elevating it Steve. Yeah, it's I was what you 501 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 7: just said. I said to a friend of mine with 502 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 7: another team. We were talking about Stroud and and this 503 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 7: guy admitted, who's in college scouting for another team. He said, yeah, 504 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 7: he's way better than we expected. So yeah, I voted 505 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 7: two poles, one for the ProFootball Writers Association, which is 506 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 7: probably the most detailed voting on both sides of the football, 507 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 7: and uh for words and also coaching and so forth. Yeah, 508 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 7: because right now, by the way, as I said earlier, 509 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 7: they've got they've got a tiebreaker now, uh over actually 510 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 7: a couple teams, and that's that's see that over Cincinnati 511 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 7: obviously who they beat last week. And look if you 512 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 7: look at that division, they are only a game back 513 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 7: of the Jaguars, who but man that that leg got 514 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 7: absolutely smoked and embarrassed at home against them. Nine. 515 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Niners are back after that game. 516 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 7: So we have to start talking about could the Texans, 517 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 7: who I didn't give a stone chance to to even 518 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 7: come close to the Jaguars. 519 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 3: They're only game back. 520 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 7: So remember Houston smoked Jacksonville and Jacksonville it's all forget 521 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 7: about that. 522 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's an incredible story for Dimigo Ryans and 523 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 2: for C.

Once again, 572 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: this is Fox Football Saturday. Steve Hartman and Kerrie Roads 573 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 2: with you. We're live from the tyreq dot com studios. 574 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 2: I mean, what about this rash of quarterbacks going down 575 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 2: for the year. I mean, this is crazy. What's happening. 576 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm watching Deshaun Watson in that second half 577 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 2: fourteen to fourteen, looking like Deshaun Watson for the first 578 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 2: time really in a Cleveland Browns uniform, and then he 579 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 2: has a season any injury. 580 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 3: I'm like, what what just happened here? 581 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow out for the year, Kirk Cousins out for 582 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 2: the year, obviously, Aaron Rodgers lost within the first few 583 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 2: plays of the season. 584 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 3: It's just some big time quarterbacks going down. 585 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 4: And it's crazy because the league is so hell bent 586 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 4: on keeping these guys healthy and they can't do it. 587 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 4: And that's part of what we talk about right there. 588 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 4: It's a war of attrition through an NFL season, right 589 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 4: It's a gauntlet, and so to try to protect these 590 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 4: guys by all these league rule changes and you know, 591 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 4: really making the game be flag football. That's not the way. 592 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 4: That's not the way you avoid injuries. You avoid injuries 593 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 4: by getting hit and going through certain things, and your 594 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 4: body becomes accustomed to taking those hits and you know things, 595 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 4: that's part of being a professional athlete. And I remember 596 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 4: when I was around, we would have the two day 597 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 4: camps and we'd be tackling and taking taking each other 598 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 4: to the ground, and you build that callous. Your body 599 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 4: becomes a customed to being able to take these hits. 600 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,959 Speaker 4: And I think with the league trying to prevent them 601 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 4: these things, they're actually making it worse. 602 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 2: Well, I agree with you one hundred percent, you know, 603 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 2: and this is why so many times we see teams 604 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 2: with a bye week look stale going up against the 605 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 2: team that had that extra game to keep the momentum going. 606 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 3: Yes, so yeah, I mean. 607 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 2: Look when I you know, going back to my Raider days, 608 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 2: back in the Stone Age, it was just part of 609 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 2: the game. You just sort of built that body armor 610 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: based on the abuse you were taken. There were no 611 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,479 Speaker 2: bye weeks none, I mean, it was just sixteen games 612 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 2: right through. 613 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 3: That's correct. I mean it was there wasn't it. There was? 614 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 3: That was it? 615 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: And then you wouldn't right through the playoffs. Yeah, so 616 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 2: no break at all. And and and the quarterbacks they 617 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 2: were fair game in those days and getting beat up 618 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 2: and everything else, no rope penalties, and somehow those guys 619 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,479 Speaker 2: survived and played years and years and years. 620 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 3: Sure there were some injuries, but no more than we 621 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 3: see now. 622 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 4: It's way more now, and especially with the non contact 623 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 4: stuff that happens a lot of times because your body's 624 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 4: just not used to those quick twitch moments and you 625 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 4: have to your body has to be ready for that. 626 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 4: It has to has to go through the gauntlet of 627 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 4: things to get to that point. And so I don't 628 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 4: think we're allowing that to happen. And we talk about 629 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 4: all these top guys going down, it really shows how 630 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 4: inept a lot of these front officers are and these 631 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 4: teams are as well. You have to give your team 632 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 4: a chance to win. You got to have guys that 633 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 4: can back up those guys in a lot of these situations. 634 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 3: They don't have backups. Back in the day, you'd have a. 635 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 4: Benny Testaberdy in the Chad Pennings and you would always 636 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 4: have a chance even if the first guy goes down 637 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 4: to still have that backup guy that can get the 638 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 4: job done. I think they're not putting the onus on 639 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 4: having another guy ready to play if the guy goes down. 640 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 3: So I think it's a combination of both. 641 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 2: I just heard Martin talk about James Madison suffering their 642 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 2: first loss of the year, actually it was their second 643 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: loss of the week. The NCAA rule that they were 644 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 2: not going to be Bawl eligible. They have rules about 645 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 2: your first year as an FBS school transferring from the 646 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: FCS level. They weren't going to change that just to 647 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 2: make an exception for James Madison even one loss. Obviously 648 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 2: James Madison would be Bowl eligible. But they were talking about, hey, 649 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: we go undefeated this year. App State took care of 650 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: him today. Meanwhile, Michigan did not look great today. They 651 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 2: were able to prevail on the road against Maryland. What 652 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 2: do you make of this whole Jim Harbough situation and 653 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 2: do you believe that Jim Harbaugh is coaching his last 654 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 2: season at Michigan or because he was making some threats 655 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 2: like you know, you haven't seen the last of me. Yeah, 656 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: we know that he's been fishing for an NFL job 657 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,719 Speaker 2: to get back in the league. I don't know if 658 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 2: the NFL is all that interested in Jim Harbaugh anymore. 659 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 2: Last year, I know a couple of teams that weren't 660 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 2: all that interested in hiring him as a head coach. 661 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 2: But what do you think of this? I call it 662 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 2: a witch hunt. I mean, I'm not exactly sure what 663 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 2: the infraction is. I'm also don't understand how a guy 664 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 2: could be there could be penalties against the coach when 665 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 2: an active investigation is still going on. Right, what happened 666 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 2: to innocent until proven guilty? I'm not quite sure what 667 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: is going on? But what do you make of the situation? Yeah, 668 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 2: due process has been thrown out the window here. 669 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 3: I agree with you. It has been a witch hunt. 670 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 4: And it's really unfortunate because it's taken him some time 671 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 4: to get Michigan to where they are. You know, they 672 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 4: win games, and they've always won games, but to get 673 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 4: to where now the last couple of years, he's kind 674 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 4: of gotten over that hurdle, gotten over that hump to 675 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 4: be in you know, the college playoff and have a 676 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 4: real legitimate chance to win. 677 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 3: Really great coach and a good guy. 678 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 4: I know him, and so to see him have to 679 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 4: go through this, especially with the accusations that they but 680 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 4: they're throwing out there, the cheating, the sign stelling. 681 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 2: Which is all a part of football. I mean, we've 682 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 2: done that for years. That's what we every sports about. 683 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 2: Science deal, that's what we do. 684 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 4: We look for any key, any advantage to give us 685 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 4: the opportunity to win and within the rules, and that's 686 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 4: what we do. So for this to be the thing 687 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 4: that's keeping him, preventing him from being with his team 688 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 4: to actually have a chance to win it all and 689 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 4: coach a successful team through the playoffs and you know, 690 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 4: possibly a national championship, it really sucks. 691 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 3: UCLA just scored again. Oh my god, what is that 692 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 3: scoring now? It's about to be thirty eight to thirteen. 693 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, man, a little rough way for Caleb Williams 694 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 2: to wrap up his career at USC. 695 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. Just take a couple of knees and get out 696 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 3: of the healthy right right now. 697 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: And the story was again that Chip kel if UCLA 698 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 2: lost this game, Chip Kelly is going to be fired 699 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: on the spot. 700 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 3: He wouldn't even coach next week against Cal. 701 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,719 Speaker 2: Now the word was, well, what if they beat sc well, 702 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 2: if they beat sc he'll be fired after the Cow game. 703 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: But this is an impressive day for UCLA and what 704 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 2: a way for Caleb Williams to wrap up his career 705 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 2: because again USC is Bowl eligible. But I would say 706 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 2: it's highly unlikely in some low level bowl game that 707 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 2: you're going to see Caleb Williams take the field. 708 00:33:58,960 --> 00:33:59,239 Speaker 3: All right. 709 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 2: He won a Heisman Trophy last year. He's not gonna 710 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 2: win it this year. We only have a couple of 711 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 2: weeks left. 712 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 3: I don't like to say this to a lot of people, 713 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 3: but I actually have a Heisman. View have a. 714 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 2: Heisman, and I will update you on the current top 715 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 2: three on my list. 716 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 3: Coming up next. 717 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: Steve Hartman, Carrie Rhodes. This is Fox Football Saturday. We 718 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: are live from the tiraq dot com studios. 719 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 3: All right, it's that time, this show. 720 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,760 Speaker 1: Countdown and co Heisman Watch. 721 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 2: All right, So this week and then two more weeks 722 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 2: and then I have to turn in my Heisman ballot, 723 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,240 Speaker 2: and I can say before I give you my current 724 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 2: top three, this race will not be decided until the 725 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 2: final games are played. 726 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 3: It is absolutely wide open. That being said, here is 727 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,479 Speaker 3: my current number three. 728 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 9: Daniels in the pocket now we'll decide to escape and run. 729 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 9: Daniels up the middle of the field, sidestep to the fender. 730 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 9: He about the forty yard line. Now he's free near side. 731 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 9: Fifteen to ten to five, touchdown, fighting Tigers. Heisman run 732 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 9: for the second time tonight. 733 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 3: Fifty one yards for Jaden Daniels. 734 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: All right, that's the LSU Sports Radio Network. Now later 735 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 2: on ls you'll be playing. And I know you say 736 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 2: they have three losses. Keep in mind the two statistical 737 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 2: barometers for a quarterback are passing efficiency and total offense. 738 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels leads the nation in both categories by a 739 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 2: wide margin. That's why he's on my list. Jaden Daniels 740 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 2: LSU quarterback is my current number three. Here is my 741 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 2: current number two. 742 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 10: And now Test comes back and joins Bucky at the 743 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 10: backfield with bowl and now goes in motional go leet 744 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,040 Speaker 10: back to throw bow go to the end zone. We 745 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 10: got it in Franklin touchdown. Try Franklin touchdown. How about 746 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 10: that dark put a strike by Bone knicks at Jerry 747 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 10: Allen from lair field. How about today bow knicks Oregon 748 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 10: leading Arizona State at Arizona State forty two to three 749 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 10: going into the fourth quarter. Bo Knicks today is twenty 750 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 10: four of twenty nine four hundred and four yard six touchdowns. 751 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 2: Ooh, he is the most accurate quarterback potentially for a 752 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 2: single season and NCAA history almost eighty percent completion rate 753 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 2: over the season. 754 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:34,280 Speaker 3: Wow. 755 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 2: I know he's been in college seemingly forever thirty two years. 756 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 2: For sure, we'll get to what's remaining on his schedule. 757 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 2: But Bo Knicks, Oregon quarterback, is my current number two. 758 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,879 Speaker 2: Here is my number one, Enzy. 759 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 7: And Bernard Ennix wants to throw looking downfield, looking looking takes. 760 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 3: A shot, Robtutze, Tody. 761 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 2: Hold On, Yes, Sir. 762 00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 10: Touchdown Wassington Romadutse playing up. 763 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 3: In the cuff kind of game. Another explosive, this time 764 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 3: for thirty three. 765 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 2: Tony CASASONI from a lair field, Washing has ten and 766 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 2: zero for only the second time in their history. Michael 767 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,240 Speaker 2: Pennick Junior leads the nation in passing yards per game, 768 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 2: and he beat Bo Nicks head to head. So that 769 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 2: being said, the only two other players that I think 770 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 2: are in the potential conversation are Marvin Harrison junior at 771 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 2: Ohio State, who today has three catches for thirty yards 772 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 2: in one touchdown. He's just not putting off enough numbers. 773 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 2: That being said, he's got Michigan coming up, and then 774 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 2: if they beat Michigan, he's got the Big ten championship game. Obviously, 775 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 2: when we talk about bow Knicks and Michael Pennick Junior, 776 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 2: potentially they have a head to head matchup in a 777 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 2: PAC twelve championship game. No divisions in the PAC twelve. 778 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 2: It's the top two finishers. But that being said, Washington 779 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 2: on the road today against Oregon State. Oregon State will 780 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 2: also play Oregon next week. Imagine if they beat both 781 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 2: Pennix and Knicks. And that's why Jayden Daniels is in 782 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 2: the mix. Milroe at Alabama, he's playing really well down 783 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 2: the store, playing very well down the stretch. He's got 784 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 2: three touchdowns today against Chattanooga. But again, what if Alabama 785 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 2: were to knock off Georgia, And by the way, the 786 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 2: way Georgia's looking right. 787 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 3: Now, won't nobody's gonna beat them. But I mean, I mean, 788 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,919 Speaker 3: what if? Yeah, yeah, what if? 789 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 2: So that's why I say this is going to come 790 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 2: down to conference championship game weekend to decide who is 791 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 2: the heightsman winner. Because I always look at it this 792 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 2: way when I vote for the Heisman Trophy, and this 793 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 2: will be the fourteenth year I've done this. Ultimately, when 794 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 2: I look at my three finalists, because that's what you 795 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 2: got on the ballot, three spots. What did you do 796 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 2: in the biggest game on your schedule, That's what I'm 797 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 2: looking at. I'm looking at your schedule, that was your 798 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 2: biggest game. What did you do in that biggest game 799 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 2: in your schedule? And that's how I decide who I 800 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 2: vote for for the Heisman Trophy. 801 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 4: I mean, that's what scouts look at as well. I 802 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,280 Speaker 4: mean scouts. I mean I remember coming out we played 803 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 4: We played Miami and the Orange Bowl. They were number 804 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 4: three in the country. We were number eleven or whatever 805 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 4: the case may be. And out of all the good 806 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 4: games I had, the one that got me drafted higher 807 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 4: was playing Miami and the Orange Bowl having two interceptions. Right, 808 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 4: So it matters the thing about those three guys that 809 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:27,760 Speaker 4: you named, it's it's a testament to them as players 810 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 4: for getting better throughout their years, because they all had 811 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 4: hiccups early on in their careers. Yeah, so to be 812 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 4: where they are right now. I remember Bo Nick's playing 813 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 4: at Auburn. I didn't think the kid could play at all. 814 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 4: He transfers, goes to a situation that's right for him, 815 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 4: right system, and becomes bo Nicks, the one that we 816 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 4: know right now. So it's a testament to all three 817 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 4: of those guys in the work they've put. In The 818 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 4: order that I would have right now would be I 819 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 4: would put bow Knicks at one, Pennis at two, and 820 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 4: Jane and Daniels at three. 821 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 3: But it's a toss up. 822 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 2: By the way, as far as Daniel's and the three losses, 823 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 2: I'll give you two quarterbacks that one Heismans with three losses. 824 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 2: Tim Tebow when he won the Heisman as a Softcore 825 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 2: that was a three loss Florida team. They ended up 826 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: losing their bowl game as well. Of course that didn't matter, 827 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 2: but he was the first guy to do the twenty 828 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,439 Speaker 2: twenty twenty touchdown passes, twenty rushing touchdowns, and the last 829 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 2: guy to do is Lamar Jackson. I got a three 830 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 2: lost Louisville team, and I remember a lot of question 831 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,959 Speaker 2: about him or Deshaun Watson that year, and of course 832 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 2: the Clemson went on to win the national championship. People 833 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 2: are like, I want my vote back, and I'm like, no, 834 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,280 Speaker 2: I voted Lamar Jackson won. I had Watson too because 835 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 2: he was the better quarterback at the time I voted. 836 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 4: And it was a crazy debate. Actually, what you were 837 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 4: just saying it matters between the games that you play. 838 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 4: Those two teams play head to hit, and Deshaun Watson 839 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 4: actually won. So that was a big thing about that 840 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 4: during the season. 841 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 2: By the way, a lot of people say, well, we 842 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 2: should vote for the Heisman after the bowl games, and 843 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 2: my answer to that is no, because a lot of 844 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 2: the stars don't even play in their bowl games anymore. 845 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,320 Speaker 2: It's a regular season award and that's the way it 846 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 2: should remain. All Right, we got much more college football, 847 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 2: including that Washington Oregon State matchup and more.

In the break, Kerry was asking me looking 860 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 2: up at this Iowa Illinois game. Iowa was leading Illinois 861 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 2: fifteen to thirteen inside three minutes ago in the third quarter. 862 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 2: I was kidding that Iowas uniforms obviously look very similar 863 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 2: to the Pittsburgh Steeler uniforms. 864 00:41:56,239 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 3: They're almost identical. This is my favorite stat of this season. 865 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 3: Bring it so. 866 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 2: There are one hundred and thirty FBS schools one hundred 867 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 2: and thirty FBS schools going into this week total offense. 868 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 2: The University of Iowa was number one thirty last dead last, 869 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 2: I mean, one hundred and thirty FBS schools total offense, 870 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 2: and Iowa is at the bottom one thirty. And the 871 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 2: record going into this week eight and ten, eight and two, 872 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 2: and they may go to nine and two. 873 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 3: That's phenomenal. 874 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,759 Speaker 2: Now, Kirk Farrence has been there forever I think he 875 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,320 Speaker 2: coached now Kinnick, I mean, he's he's been at Iowa 876 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 2: seemingly forever. But how is that possible that a team, 877 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 2: especially in this day and age where we see these 878 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,919 Speaker 2: glossy offensive numbers and these quarterbacks that are a top 879 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 2: my Heisman list putting up mind boggling numbers that a 880 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 2: team that is that inept, where they are literally dead 881 00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 2: last in the nation in total offense, could be eight 882 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 2: and two and they just got a big first down 883 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,319 Speaker 2: to extend they look like they're heading to nine and two. 884 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 3: That impossible. It defies all odds. 885 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 4: Steve, Yeah, I mean this team has been in ept 886 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:13,320 Speaker 4: on offense for a long time. 887 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 3: Yes, and Iowa Steve knows this. It's it's bad. 888 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 4: But the fact that they keep winning, you're going to 889 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 4: be seven to three, eight and two, eight and three 890 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 4: every year and not have a chance to win the championship. 891 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, because remember they are going to be heading 892 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 2: to the Big Ten championship game and face either Ohio 893 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 2: State or Michigan and. 894 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 4: Get beat by two touchdowns easily by either one of 895 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:36,280 Speaker 4: those things. 896 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:36,839 Speaker 3: But not more. 897 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,840 Speaker 4: I mean, the only reason I wouldn't say more is 898 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 4: because of the brand of football they play. Though the 899 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 4: brand that they play allows them to be in every game. 900 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 2: Think about this, So Michigan right now, Jim Harbor is 901 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 2: not going to be on the sidelines for the Ohio 902 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 2: State game. There's been no mention about the Big Ten 903 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 2: Championship game. No no, and he has said that they 904 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 2: will feel the Wrathay, So if he's back on the 905 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 2: sidelines for a Big Ten championship game Michigan against Iowah, 906 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 2: he will hold nothing back. I mean, he will roll 907 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: it up like there is literally no tomorrow. 908 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 3: And you know what, I would pay to see that. 909 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,880 Speaker 4: I will actually go to the game to see that happen, 910 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 4: only because he should. He should take all his frustration, 911 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 4: all the pain, all the suffering that's been brought upon 912 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 4: him and his team in Michigan. In ann Arbor, I 913 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 4: would do the same thing. 914 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:40,919 Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm not a big Michigan fan. 915 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 2: I'm not a Big ten fan growing up as a 916 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 2: West Coast guy, but I do sympathize with him, and 917 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 2: it just seems so petty whatever they're putting him through. 918 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,879 Speaker 3: But you know, everyone's like, well, what does this mean 919 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 3: beyond the Big Ten season? 920 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 2: Again, I found it very curious that there's no announcement 921 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 2: about Michigan, which needs to win one more game to 922 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 2: get to the Big Ten Championship game, about his status 923 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 2: to stand on the sideline for the Big Ten championship game, 924 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 2: and obviously the playoff is completely out of the jurisdiction 925 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 2: of the Big Ten. They have nothing to do with that. 926 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 2: That's a that's a play for the playoffs. So they're 927 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 2: in the playoff. He's going to be there, which could 928 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 2: be a good news for their opponents since their own 929 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 2: to the last year. 930 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 3: How did they lose the TCU last year? How is 931 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 3: that possible? 932 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, the TCU team that then lost sixty five to 933 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 2: seven to Georgia the following game. 934 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, how did they lose? 935 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 4: I remember watching that game too. I remember, I just 936 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 4: remember all the breaks going to It was just one 937 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,399 Speaker 4: of those. It was a Fluke game. I remember really 938 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 4: watching him as saying. 939 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 3: I mean Max Duggan really yeah, I mean it. 940 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 4: Was a great story, Mats Well, the story was a 941 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 4: great story. Yeah, but yeah, they should not have lost 942 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 4: that game. 943 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 2: All right, So we got a lot going on this 944 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 2: USC UCLA game. Now inside three minutes clock is ticking. 945 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 2: Sed get a late touchdown, but it's not going to matter. 946 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,759 Speaker 2: UCLA is going to win this game. Thirty eight twenty 947 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 2: I mentioned earlier Chip Kelly, And by the way, usually 948 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 2: with these rivalry games, nothing is a better job saver 949 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 2: than beating your rival. I remember Terry Donahue at his 950 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 2: end of his run at UCLA. They weren't all that great, 951 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 2: but he had five straight wins against sc at the end, 952 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 2: which is how he continued to come back year after year. 953 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 2: But this is not going to be the case for 954 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 2: chip Kelly. I've been told by many reliable sources, regardless 955 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 2: of how UCLA ends the season, the chip Kelly's days 956 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,320 Speaker 2: are numbered as they move into the Big. 957 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 3: Ten this year. 958 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 2: And we mentioned this early Carrie, when we talked about 959 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 2: this early in the season, about this literally being the 960 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 2: last year of college football as we have known it 961 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 2: for pretty much forever, with the complete dismantling of the 962 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 2: Pac twelve, with Texas and Oklahoma moving into the SCC. 963 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,760 Speaker 2: Next year, you know four teams from the Pac twelve, Washington, 964 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:51,439 Speaker 2: Oregon with US and Usuly moving the Big Ten, Colorado, Utah, 965 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 2: the Arizona schools moving the Big twelve, Stanford and Cal 966 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:58,440 Speaker 2: moving to the ACC. And you know, if I were Michigan, 967 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 2: now that they these schools can go wherever they want, 968 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 2: whenever they want. 969 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 3: If I'm Michigan, I'm like, I'll tell you what Big ten. 970 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 3: You gonna jump ship? Why do we need you? 971 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 2: Right, I'm on the horn with the Big twelve. I'm 972 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 2: on the horn with the ACC I'm on the horn 973 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 2: with the sec. Are you interested in the Big House? 974 00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 2: One hundred thousand fans? Any interest in the Big House? 975 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 2: Because we fill that thing every game? A lot of money? 976 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:24,680 Speaker 2: That's not a lot of money? 977 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, anybody interested in Michigan? 978 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 4: I think so, man, that would be daring and bold, 979 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 4: and with all the realignment, I wouldn't put it past them. 980 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. 981 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 2: I mean, if I'm Michigan, why would I put up 982 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 2: with this nonsense? And you know who's behind it. There's 983 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 2: only one school that's really affected by any success of 984 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 2: Michigan has that's Ohio State. 985 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 3: Oh to the state. 986 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I who know who's behind this planning the seed? 987 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 2: And so UCLA taking a knee right now, final seconds, 988 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 2: and that is it. UCLA has defeated USC thirty eight 989 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 2: to twenty, and most likely Caleb Williams farewell. He's not 990 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 2: crying today. He's got a smile on his face. He's 991 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 2: gonna be a very rich guy soon. 992 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's good. He's already a rich guy. He's already 993 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 3: a lot of money. 994 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 2: I don't know what about Lincoln Riley though, What is 995 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 2: going to go on with the future of Lincoln Riley. 996 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 2: This guy is being paid a boat load. Chip Kelly's like, look, 997 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 2: I'm gonna get fired and I. 998 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,239 Speaker 4: Beat you today. That that was the Clints right there, 999 00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 4: That was the hug. You know, I'm going, hey, if 1000 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 4: you need a spot, I'm right there with you. 1001 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 6: You know. 1002 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 4: So it's probably that conversation going on. What if Yeah, 1003 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 4: I mean, Chip Kelly's an offensive guy, so it doesn't 1004 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 4: really help to bring him on over the jump ship. 1005 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 4: But uh yeah, I'm sure it's some some very some 1006 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 4: very solid words going on between the muffled hug. 1007 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:47,239 Speaker 2: The muffled hug there, Kirbye Smart and Georgia today went 1008 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 2: into Tennessee and worked him by a score of thirty 1009 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 2: eight to ten. You saw the first play from scrimmage, 1010 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 2: Tennessee running back round seventy five yards for a touchdown. 1011 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 2: First play of scrimmage, Tennessee got three points the rest 1012 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,400 Speaker 2: of the way. Georgia ties the SEC record for most 1013 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 2: consecutive wins. They're at twenty eight in a row. They're 1014 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,800 Speaker 2: building momentum each week, looking better and better and better 1015 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 2: and trying to do something that no team has ever done. 1016 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 2: No team has ever won three national championships in a row. 1017 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 2: The AP pole dates back to nineteen thirty six. Yeah, 1018 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 2: no team has won that championship three consecutive seasons. When 1019 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 2: you look at Georgia right now, you look at Michigan, 1020 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 2: you look at Ohio State, Florida State's still undefeated. Obviously, 1021 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 2: Washington's still undefeated. A lot of work to do there. 1022 00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 3: Anybody gonna slow down the Bulldogs. 1023 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 4: The only team that has a shot is in their 1024 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 4: own division. Yeah, and that's Alabama. Yeah, that's the only 1025 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 4: team that I can see that could challenge them. I 1026 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 4: mean the way that mir Row has grown throughout the 1027 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 4: year and actually gotten his confidence. And you know, it's 1028 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 4: crazy when you're a young guy and a talented guy 1029 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 4: and you expect it to do something and you have 1030 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 4: a little hiccup and then your coach, you know, you know, 1031 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,760 Speaker 4: sits down for a minute, and you get to actually 1032 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 4: as bench down a week. Yeah, but you get to 1033 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 4: assess it and you get to understand how the game works. 1034 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 4: And then the coach gives you that vote of confidence 1035 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 4: to go back back in there, and he's playing that 1036 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 4: way now and outside of Alabama, no team is going 1037 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 4: to stop Georgia. Georgia's, you know, in the past, has 1038 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 4: been known for their defense and their defensive players and 1039 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 4: a running game and a quarterback that can occasionally make 1040 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:25,360 Speaker 4: a pay a play. 1041 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 2: Carson Beck can play football. Oh yeah, vacint we know 1042 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:34,319 Speaker 2: he's a better quarterback sEH oh, no question. I mean 1043 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 2: sets and Bennet was an overachiever and you know he 1044 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 2: had a great college career. Obviously give you a cap 1045 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,400 Speaker 2: by being a Heisman finalist last year and deservely so. 1046 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:45,399 Speaker 2: I mean, he was the leader of a great back 1047 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 2: to back national champion Georgia team. 1048 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 3: But no, BECs Beck's he's a better quarterback this and 1049 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:51,280 Speaker 3: this team made. 1050 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 4: It's hard to say this because their defense has been 1051 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 4: so staunched over the over the years. Yeah, but this 1052 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 4: team is a better team than those teams. 1053 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 3: They have a better offense. I think that, and that's yeah, 1054 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:00,919 Speaker 3: for sure. 1055 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,880 Speaker 2: I think they absolutely have a better offense. Only got 1056 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks lead. Now we're getting ready for 1057 00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 2: the kickoff of a game that could change a lot 1058 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,800 Speaker 2: of things quickly, and that is Washington on the road 1059 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:12,840 Speaker 2: against Oregon. 1060 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 3: State. 1061 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,879 Speaker 2: I heard on college Game Day they were harkening back 1062 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:18,680 Speaker 2: to a very famous Oregon State team. 1063 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 3: There haven't been many. 1064 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 2: It goes back to nineteen sixty seven Oregon State. That 1065 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 2: year they were the Giant Killers is what they were called. 1066 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,879 Speaker 2: They played an undefeated Purdue team that was ranked number 1067 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 2: two in the country beat them. They then played a 1068 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,720 Speaker 2: UCLA team that was ranked number two in the country 1069 00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 2: and tied them in the days before when they still 1070 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 2: had ties. And then they played usc who was undefeated, 1071 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,359 Speaker 2: ranked number one with oj Simpson and beat them. 1072 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:50,359 Speaker 3: Oh wow, So they beat in the space of several weeks. 1073 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 2: They beat the number two, number two, we'll tie the 1074 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 2: number two and then beat the number one team. Oregon 1075 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 2: State is home against Washington this week, and then they 1076 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 2: have Oregon next week in the Civil War. And this 1077 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 2: is the eleventh ranked team of the country. Oregon State's 1078 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 2: a good teammate, a good team. Dj Uyungalalay's played much 1079 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 2: better with Oregon State than he did in his Clemson 1080 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 2: days and he's also building a lot of confidence. So 1081 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,800 Speaker 2: this is a huge game coming up. It's gonna be 1082 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 2: kicking off short. Yeah, it's gonna be a huge game. 1083 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:22,320 Speaker 4: I'm actually excited to see this one. There are certain 1084 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 4: games throughout the weeks when it holds so much importance 1085 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 4: and you actually, again you talked about DJ wanted to 1086 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 4: see him kind of settle in and start to play 1087 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,319 Speaker 4: the football that we all expected him to play. I mean, 1088 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 4: he's not playing on that level, but he's playing in 1089 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:40,319 Speaker 4: an offense where he's able to you know, it fits him. 1090 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 4: He runs, he runs tough between the tackles, he can 1091 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 4: get first downs, he can manage the ball down the field, 1092 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,359 Speaker 4: and he looks good with that team. And so this 1093 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 4: game Oregon State Washington for all the marbles to Washington, 1094 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 4: and they really need to get this game to get 1095 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,440 Speaker 4: to that next level of I mean even last year 1096 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,120 Speaker 4: that Washington was kind of in the same boat, right 1097 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 4: they were hanging around the team that was like, Oh, 1098 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, this team can win the Pac 1099 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 4: twelve and Pack ten and go to the playoffs and 1100 00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,360 Speaker 4: then they lose. Right, they're used to doing that. I 1101 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 4: actually see them losing this game as well. 1102 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:11,479 Speaker 3: Well. 1103 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 2: They're gonna have to play better than they have the 1104 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 2: last several weeks. Pennix has been able to get some 1105 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 2: big plays late in games to Eke out a few 1106 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 2: Washington victories, but this is a different level, especially on 1107 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 2: the defensive side of the football. All right, coming up 1108 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 2: on the other side, we're gonna get back to little 1109 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 2: NFL news. We're at that point of the season where 1110 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:32,239 Speaker 2: we can sort of cite the real contenders and some 1111 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 2: teams that are frauds. And I got one team in 1112 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:41,359 Speaker 2: particular that I'm gonna tell you do not bet on 1113 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,880 Speaker 2: this team to make a deep run in the playoffs. 1114 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 2: Which team you'll find out?

He 1126 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 2: was at Purdue for four years, including a red shirt year. 1127 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:38,360 Speaker 2: He went to cal last year and this year a 1128 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:42,399 Speaker 2: one year, sixth year rental at Louisville. By the way, 1129 00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 2: he is no relation to Jake Plumber. There's because his 1130 00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 2: name is Jack Plumber. Oh is that like Jake Plumber's kid. 1131 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 2: It's not no relation to the college Football Hall of 1132 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 2: Famer out of Arizona State, Jake Plumber, but Jack Plumber 1133 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 2: leading Louisville to that big win. 1134 00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:57,839 Speaker 3: All right. 1135 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 2: So during the break, we are talking about Florida State 1136 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 2: trailing South Alabama, a team that's three and seven this 1137 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 2: year by a score of thirteen. North air Obabama, excuse me. 1138 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 2: And so we're watching the game, literally just turning to 1139 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:18,880 Speaker 2: watch the game because we've flipped the game on Jordan Travis, 1140 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,479 Speaker 2: who had an outstanding year for Florida State this year. 1141 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 2: He's on a scramble, he runs up the middle, he 1142 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 2: gets tackled and as he as the unpile of the body, 1143 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,800 Speaker 2: his left ankle was literally pointing in the wrong direction. 1144 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 2: It was a complete snap of the ankle and they 1145 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 2: cut away immediately wisely show from the telecast. 1146 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:43,440 Speaker 3: But just. 1147 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:49,840 Speaker 2: I mean, for us mere mortals, when we see injuries 1148 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,759 Speaker 2: like that, we just I mean, yeah, freak out. But 1149 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 2: for someone that plays the game, it's devastating and they 1150 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:01,000 Speaker 2: are showing. Florida State fans are in a state of 1151 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 2: shock right now as Travis is being helped off the 1152 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:11,279 Speaker 2: field obviously a season over and his future. I mean, 1153 00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:13,839 Speaker 2: we see these devastating injuries and he think they'll never 1154 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 2: play again. 1155 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 3: That was. 1156 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 4: It was brutal, brutal. I feel for the kid. I know, 1157 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 4: the kid he came in as a Louisville recruit, he 1158 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 4: spent a couple of years there, transfers to Florida State 1159 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 4: and becomes the Jordan Travis that we all know now, 1160 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,799 Speaker 4: and you know, had this team flying high number four 1161 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 4: in the country, I mean, playing really good football for them, 1162 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 4: and to see something like that, I mean my heart 1163 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 4: goes out to him, and it goes out to his 1164 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 4: family man and to his teammates as well, because they 1165 00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 4: love the kid down there too. 1166 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:55,279 Speaker 2: So it's a gut punch for sure. Yeah, that is it. 1167 00:56:55,440 --> 00:57:04,399 Speaker 2: That is the end of his career. So Jordan Travis, Yeah, 1168 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 2: it was. 1169 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 4: It was not good. It was not good. We you know, 1170 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,399 Speaker 4: in the studio, Steve talked about it. I mean, you 1171 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:13,799 Speaker 4: watch these games as fans and obviously if it's not 1172 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 4: somebody on your team. You you know you there's a 1173 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 4: human element of it that we appreciate. 1174 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 3: We know how tough it is. 1175 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 4: But when you're on that field and you go to 1176 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 4: war with someone like that and for him to be 1177 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 4: your leader, someone that you you you really look up to, 1178 00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 4: to see them go down in that way, it's it's just, uh, 1179 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 4: it's it's heartbreaking. 1180 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 2: And well, it's been such a comeback year for Florida 1181 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 2: State football, who was so dominant for so many years 1182 00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 2: and then you know, sort of went sideways, and we've 1183 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 2: been trying to find the right coach to try to 1184 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,640 Speaker 2: bring back Florida State to prominence, and obviously Jordan Travis 1185 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 2: such a part of that. He's been sort of like 1186 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:53,919 Speaker 2: my fringe with Heisman candidates, sort of waiting to see 1187 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:58,320 Speaker 2: how it plays out. But wow, that is devastating. So 1188 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 2: I don't think we're going to see that highly. You're 1189 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 2: going to have to find it somewhere else. But it 1190 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 2: was a scramble play, seem like a rather routine tackle, 1191 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:08,959 Speaker 2: but his. 1192 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 3: Ankle completely snapped. Yeah, lower leg. 1193 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was one of those It's gruesome. If you 1194 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 4: have a queasy stomach or you don't like those things. 1195 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 4: Definitely sail away. 1196 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 2: By the way, this is Fox a Football Saturday, Steve 1197 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:23,440 Speaker 2: Hartman and Carrie Rhodes with you.

All right, I want to get to 1206 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 2: the NFL for a second here, and it always amazes 1207 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 2: me week to week the bandwagon fans based on a 1208 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 2: single game. Yeah, and if you don't know the NFL 1209 00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 2: by now, and I know if you gamble on the NFL, 1210 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 2: you certainly know what I'm talking about. What happens one 1211 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 2: week has zero bearing on the next week. We see 1212 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 2: it week after week after week. Every time you're about 1213 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 2: to jump on the bandwagon with a team, they lay 1214 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 2: an egg. But there's one team that is getting a 1215 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 2: lot of hype this week, and I'm like, you gotta 1216 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 2: be kidding me, And that is the Dallas Cowboys. So 1217 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 2: the Cowboys are sitting at six and three right now, 1218 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:34,760 Speaker 2: and that's a pretty good record. They're sitting at six 1219 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 2: and three, and they just blew out the hapless Giants 1220 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 2: forty nine to seventeen, and a couple of weeks ago 1221 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:42,440 Speaker 2: they blew out the Rams forty three to twenty, and 1222 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:45,400 Speaker 2: in between they played a competitive game against the Eagles, 1223 00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:48,800 Speaker 2: of which they lost. Keep in mind, they have played 1224 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 2: nine games this year, nine games. Of those nine teams, 1225 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 2: only two of them currently have a winning record. 1226 00:59:57,240 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 3: That would be the Eagles, who they. 1227 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 2: Lost in narrow get lost to, and the forty nine 1228 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 2: Ers who blew them out. So in other words, all 1229 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 2: six of their wins are against teams that currently have 1230 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:18,720 Speaker 2: a losing record. One of their losses was to the 1231 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals, who only have one win this year. 1232 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 3: Okay, one win. 1233 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,439 Speaker 2: Now, Joshua Dobbs was the quarterback, and all of a sudden, 1234 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,120 Speaker 2: Dobbs has become a big story. We can get that 1235 01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:33,040 Speaker 2: out a little bit later on. But the idea that 1236 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 2: somehow the Cowboys have put themselves back into the conversation 1237 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 2: for a Super Bowl run, to me is absurd. And 1238 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 2: there I even heard one person say that no quarterback 1239 01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 2: is playing better right now than Dak Prescott. Now, and 1240 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 2: I give you one right now that is playing better 1241 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 2: than Dak Prescott, and that's the rookie CJ. Stroud for 1242 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 2: sure is playing better than Dak Prescott. So I know 1243 01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 2: there's a lot of people of this America's team and 1244 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 2: everything else. They haven't evenmitted to a conference championship game 1245 01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 2: since the nineteen ninety five season. Yeah, so I mean, 1246 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 2: I I mean, I know there are a lot of 1247 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 2: anxious Cowboy fans, and I've said it. I mean, at 1248 01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 2: some point the football guys are gonna say, all right, 1249 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:18,160 Speaker 2: come on enough, we're gonna give you something, and we're 1250 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 2: gonna put you back in the conversation. 1251 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:21,920 Speaker 3: I mean, would you have the Cowboys ranked over the 1252 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 3: Lions right now? No, that's fourth, They're fourth. 1253 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 2: Okay, so you have the Eagles, yep, you have the Lions, yep. 1254 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:31,000 Speaker 2: Santa Fran the forty nine ers, and the forty nine ers. Yeah, sure, 1255 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,760 Speaker 2: so they're fourth. But I mean obviously that order can 1256 01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 2: can can be uh. 1257 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 3: I mean, are they all that much better than Seattle? Yes? Okay, 1258 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:41,200 Speaker 3: so they're better in Seattle. 1259 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 4: Better than Seattle, Yeah, yeah, they're four. They're firmly in four. 1260 01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,919 Speaker 4: But they are planned better. I think offensively they're planning. 1261 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 4: They're planned better. I don't think defensively they are. So 1262 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:53,200 Speaker 4: I think there's they haven't had a time this season 1263 01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:57,080 Speaker 4: where both were clicking together for any period of time. 1264 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 4: So if they can figure that out, then we can 1265 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 4: talk about it later. But right now, yeah, I think 1266 01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 4: they're firmly cemented at the fourth spot in the NFC 1267 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:05,280 Speaker 4: right now. 1268 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 3: And by the way, in the AFC. 1269 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:10,200 Speaker 2: Another team that I would put in the exact same category. 1270 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 3: The doll the Miami Dolphins. 1271 01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:15,919 Speaker 2: I mean, their wins this year are against the Chargers again, 1272 01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:19,040 Speaker 2: they should have lost that opening game. They beat the Patriots, 1273 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 2: they beat the Broncos, they beat the Giants, the Panthers, 1274 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,560 Speaker 2: and the Patriots. Again, none of those counts. Those are 1275 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 2: all teams with currently losing records. They lost badly on 1276 01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 2: the road to the Bills, they lost convincingly on the 1277 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 2: road to the Eagles, and they were competitive, but they 1278 01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 2: lost to the Chiefs at home. I'm sorry that that 1279 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 2: is not enough to put you in Super Bowl conversation. Yeah, no, 1280 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 2: not right now, not at all. 1281 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:51,360 Speaker 4: But I think with Miami since we're talking to Miami 1282 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:54,520 Speaker 4: a little bit of here as well. They're getting healthier 1283 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 4: and they're getting their main guys back on defense. They 1284 01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 4: just got a chain back as well. So let's see 1285 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 4: how they go moving forward from here. But at this moment, 1286 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:04,920 Speaker 4: you're correct, they both are in the same boat. They 1287 01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 4: haven't had any really real quality wins and so but 1288 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 4: again in the NFL, a wins a win. 1289 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 3: We talked about that earlier with the Steelers. 1290 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 4: Right, so they're winning and until they don't win anymore 1291 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 4: and lose in the playoffs. And right now we have 1292 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 4: to say, right now, Miami's the leader in the AFC's right. 1293 01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 2: So I'm trying to figure out on the AFC side, 1294 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 2: I mean, to me, it's a two horse race between 1295 01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 2: the Chiefs and Ravens. Sorry anybody else in the I 1296 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 2: mean after Jacksonville. Obviously, last week as Jacksonville hosted the 1297 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, both teams coming off the bye week. 1298 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 2: Jacksonville had a five game winning streak, forty nine Ers 1299 01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:42,000 Speaker 2: at three game lanning streak, a losing streak, and of 1300 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 2: course you know forty nine Ers are going to health 1301 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 2: they go this is the week when we can actually 1302 01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 2: figure out whether we should be talking about Jacksonville. 1303 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:51,080 Speaker 6: Now. 1304 01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:57,000 Speaker 2: They got smoked. I mean it's absolutely smoked at home. 1305 01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:00,000 Speaker 2: So you look at the AFC right now. We're not 1306 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 2: going to take the Steelers seriously or the Browns, the Texans. 1307 01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 2: Is it possible the Texans, I mean Texans in Miami 1308 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 2: as the number three team behind the Chiefs and the Ravens. 1309 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's a possibility. Yeah, for sure, because somebody 1310 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 4: has to win that division. And so I mean Jacksonville obviously, 1311 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 4: I think they are the team that's going to ultimately 1312 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:22,480 Speaker 4: win that division. 1313 01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 3: And uh, it's but we'll see. 1314 01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:29,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Jacksonville is in that I mean, yeah, 1315 01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,440 Speaker 4: it's it's a tough one. I think, I mean, Jacksonville's 1316 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 4: gonna win that division, but Houston's right there. 1317 01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 2: All right, let's let's find out what is a trending 1318 01:04:35,600 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 2: Right now, we welcome Martin back into the mix right now, 1319 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 2: who is doing double duty doing updates and preparing for 1320 01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:45,280 Speaker 2: his own award winning show which will follow this show. 1321 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 8: That'll be it just about half an hour from now. 1322 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:49,840 Speaker 8: I'll be on there in the nassy.

Okay, so this is just me Martin. 1379 01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 8: Because you have rankings and then you have scores on top. 1380 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:25,920 Speaker 8: That's a lot of numbers. Too many numbers, Steve, too 1381 01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:26,640 Speaker 8: many numbers. 1382 01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:30,640 Speaker 2: So unless you have like top ranked Georgia, I mean, 1383 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:33,760 Speaker 2: I don't know, Carrie, is it really interesting to you know, 1384 01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 2: twentieth rank North Carolina ranked losing to Clemson. 1385 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 3: It's like, okay, well they're twentieth.

Martin and I were talking about this early. 1397 01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,200 Speaker 2: A lot of numbers out there. Thank you very much, 1398 01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,120 Speaker 2: Martin has always well. Once again, this is Fox Football Saturday, 1399 01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:14,080 Speaker 2: Steve Hartman and carry roads with you. We are live 1400 01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:16,800 Speaker 2: from the ti iraq dot com studios. I did want 1401 01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:19,800 Speaker 2: to ask you about Joshua Dobbs and one of the 1402 01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:24,400 Speaker 2: great stories in the NFL, in fact, is what he 1403 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 2: has done has put himself in the conversation for NFL 1404 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:31,840 Speaker 2: Comeback Player of the Year. But his comeback and so 1405 01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,120 Speaker 2: many people say, well, a guy can't do this, and 1406 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:38,080 Speaker 2: I'm likeah. 1407 01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 3: He can't. Gino Smith. 1408 01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:41,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, when Gino Smith assumed the control of the Seahawks 1409 01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 2: at the start of the last season, I didn't even 1410 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:45,160 Speaker 2: know he was still in the league. I didn't either, 1411 01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:48,760 Speaker 2: So you got Joshua Dobbs, who's been bouncing around this 1412 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 2: league forever. He ends up with Arizona because they needed 1413 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:53,440 Speaker 2: a quarterback with the injury. 1414 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:54,160 Speaker 3: To Kyle Mrie. 1415 01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:57,160 Speaker 2: Then they trade him away to Minnesota because Kirk Cousins 1416 01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:00,759 Speaker 2: is out. Meanwhile, they're getting their Jay and all ready 1417 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,800 Speaker 2: to play the rookie he had been the backup all week. 1418 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:06,160 Speaker 2: He doesn't even get to take a single snap, meaning 1419 01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 2: Joshua Dobbs a whole week obviously with his new team 1420 01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:12,600 Speaker 2: first string, and then he's forced into the game and 1421 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:14,639 Speaker 2: leads the comeback and then picks it up and does 1422 01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:18,559 Speaker 2: it again all of a sudden. If you're the Minnesota Vikings, 1423 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:21,760 Speaker 2: you're like, wait a second, all right, So a lot 1424 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,000 Speaker 2: of teams might be interested in Kirk Cousins. Of course 1425 01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:29,600 Speaker 2: he's coming off a blown Achilles Joshua Dobbs. Could it 1426 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:33,200 Speaker 2: be a Geno Smith situation? And I hear these interviews 1427 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:36,519 Speaker 2: with Dobbs. You know how he's been able to survive 1428 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 2: all these years. One he's a very smart quarterback obviously, yep. 1429 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:41,479 Speaker 2: And he can do a lot of things for you. 1430 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,720 Speaker 2: He can run, he can throw, He obviously could pick 1431 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:44,880 Speaker 2: up an offense real quick. 1432 01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 3: He didn't even know his teammates' names. You didn't even 1433 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 3: know the place. 1434 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:51,040 Speaker 2: No, I mean we were kiddy because we were watching 1435 01:09:51,080 --> 01:09:53,960 Speaker 2: that game live. Like if you're Dobbs knowing that you 1436 01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 2: haven't taken a single snap with these people. If I'm 1437 01:09:57,439 --> 01:09:59,800 Speaker 2: the coach, I'm just saying, all right, look for an 1438 01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 2: open receiver if there's just run otherwise. Oh and they 1439 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:06,160 Speaker 2: did more than that. But I mean, how when you 1440 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 2: see stories like this in the NFL as someone again 1441 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:10,680 Speaker 2: that played in this league as long as you did 1442 01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:13,840 Speaker 2: carry does that give you a greater appreciation? Is there 1443 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:17,479 Speaker 2: any way to translate to us in the world. How 1444 01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:19,800 Speaker 2: miraculous what Dodds. 1445 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:21,160 Speaker 3: Is doing with the Vikings is right now? 1446 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:24,400 Speaker 4: I mean you just look at your your your normal 1447 01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:28,640 Speaker 4: McDonald's worker. Right, Let's take it to those terms, like 1448 01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:32,680 Speaker 4: you have to learn what the stations are. You got 1449 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,080 Speaker 4: to learn who are in those stations. There's shift changes. 1450 01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:39,640 Speaker 4: You go from fries to mopping, from mopping to dishes. 1451 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:42,680 Speaker 3: With no training, Like you're just walking the door and 1452 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:43,160 Speaker 3: if you. 1453 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,599 Speaker 4: Walk into McDonald's in the back, you would be lost. 1454 01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:49,720 Speaker 4: You wouldn't know how to operate the fry machine. So 1455 01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:53,160 Speaker 4: for him to go out there and be a competent, 1456 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:57,160 Speaker 4: more than competent NFL starter on a team that's fighting 1457 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,519 Speaker 4: to make the playoffs and go in and be the 1458 01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:01,800 Speaker 4: team in the Atlanta who was had some momentum at 1459 01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:04,640 Speaker 4: the time and was in the playoff hunt themselves to 1460 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:06,640 Speaker 4: go in there and to lead two drives down the 1461 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:11,360 Speaker 4: stretch to beat them. It's just there's no quantifiable way 1462 01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 4: to describe it. And for a guy like that to 1463 01:11:14,479 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 4: come after that, you can rest on those laurels. 1464 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:17,320 Speaker 1: Right. 1465 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:19,760 Speaker 4: I just came in in two days and won a game, 1466 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,320 Speaker 4: and now I come back the next week and even 1467 01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:24,400 Speaker 4: you know one up that. 1468 01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:25,719 Speaker 3: It's just remarkable. 1469 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:25,880 Speaker 2: Man. 1470 01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 4: I'm so happy for him, and I'm happy that he 1471 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 4: has a chance to have some success and people understand 1472 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 4: who he is as a player and not just as 1473 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,560 Speaker 4: the smart guy that people kind of, you know, quantify 1474 01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:37,360 Speaker 4: him as well. 1475 01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:40,160 Speaker 3: Let's put it this way. 1476 01:11:40,200 --> 01:11:43,360 Speaker 2: He has as many wins if he count him coming 1477 01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:46,640 Speaker 2: in relief to win that first game of the Vikings, yeah, 1478 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 2: as Bill Belichick has this year with the New England Patriots. Two. 1479 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. The Belichick situation in New England, is it fixable? 1480 01:11:57,240 --> 01:12:03,479 Speaker 4: No, it's done. You call something your way right. For 1481 01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:06,720 Speaker 4: so long, it's called the Patriot way. Right, those days 1482 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:09,519 Speaker 4: are over. The kids are different. These guys that are 1483 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 4: coming in, they they try to get away with more 1484 01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:18,840 Speaker 4: having less, and they have done that in the past, 1485 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:22,000 Speaker 4: but nowadays you gotta have talent, and that team has 1486 01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:24,799 Speaker 4: zero talent. And if you don't have talent that buys 1487 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,600 Speaker 4: into your scheme anymore, you're not going to have the 1488 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 4: guy that doesn't have talent buy in because he can't 1489 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:33,240 Speaker 4: buy in. He can't do those same things. So right 1490 01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 4: now it's over. You can can I start you for 1491 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:39,240 Speaker 4: a second. I want to say this question, was there 1492 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 4: ever a Patriot Way? 1493 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:42,960 Speaker 2: I mean, when you take a Wes Welker, who is 1494 01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 2: a nobody, it becomes an All Pro. When you take 1495 01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:48,719 Speaker 2: a Jillian Edelman who is a college quarterback, a special 1496 01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:51,200 Speaker 2: teams guy, and he becomes a Super Bowl MVP. 1497 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 3: Wasn't the Patriot Wade the Brady way? 1498 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:57,280 Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at if you look at 1499 01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:00,679 Speaker 2: Belichick's record, it's five years in Cleveland and the years 1500 01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:04,479 Speaker 2: in New eng them when he has not had Tom Brady. 1501 01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 2: If you had all those years and that's six that's 1502 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:10,839 Speaker 2: ten years. Yeah, one playoff win in all those years combined, 1503 01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:14,400 Speaker 2: I will I mean, I mean, I don't know how 1504 01:13:14,760 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 2: his legacy if this season ends four and thirteen and 1505 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:22,559 Speaker 2: he is dismissed, which seems likely at this point, Yeah, 1506 01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 2: and he never coaches again. Six super Bowls, nine super 1507 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 2: bowl I mean, all of this is going to be 1508 01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 2: on the table, like how much was Belichick and how 1509 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:36,920 Speaker 2: much of it literally was the Brady way not the 1510 01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:38,000 Speaker 2: Belichick way. 1511 01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,160 Speaker 4: You got a fair argument there, and I was one 1512 01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 4: that believed it was more Belichick than Brady. Well, I 1513 01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 4: think a lot of people that while I was a player, 1514 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:52,280 Speaker 4: like I really thought that because Brady obviously would step 1515 01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:54,559 Speaker 4: up in those big moments, and you know you would. 1516 01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,120 Speaker 4: You could see that. You can understand that and appreciate that. 1517 01:13:58,560 --> 01:14:00,600 Speaker 4: But even when Brady wasn't there, though they didn't make 1518 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:02,639 Speaker 4: the playoffs that one year I think it was oh seven, 1519 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 4: when when Brady. 1520 01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:08,160 Speaker 2: Got hurt, they. 1521 01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:08,240 Speaker 3: Wanted eleven games with Madcastle. 1522 01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:10,679 Speaker 4: So you could see that, and that was a sticking 1523 01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:11,920 Speaker 4: point for a lot of people who are like, oh, 1524 01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:14,360 Speaker 4: they still can win without them, but they never won 1525 01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,120 Speaker 4: the big one without them. And so now as I've 1526 01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:22,919 Speaker 4: gotten older and appreciated Brady for really what what he's done. 1527 01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 2: You got you got a fair point there, Steve Emily. 1528 01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:28,559 Speaker 2: I don't want to dismiss the guy's career. I mean 1529 01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:30,680 Speaker 2: he's on the Mount Russ Morrick coaches. He's won more 1530 01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:34,360 Speaker 2: Super Bowls than ain't coach period. And to me, you know, 1531 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:37,080 Speaker 2: how do you agree coaches? It's very simple, wins and losses. 1532 01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:42,040 Speaker 2: There's nothing, nothing else I can go by. But this 1533 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:48,160 Speaker 2: catastrophe this year for the Patriots really comes as no surprise. 1534 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,840 Speaker 2: And when you look at what he did a year 1535 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:54,880 Speaker 2: ago to derail his coach, quarterback Mac Jones after his 1536 01:14:54,920 --> 01:14:59,000 Speaker 2: great rookie season by not having a legitimate offensive coordinator 1537 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:01,320 Speaker 2: and then throwing Bill O'Brien into the mix to try 1538 01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:03,240 Speaker 2: to fix the mess that he created. 1539 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:04,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the. 1540 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:08,200 Speaker 2: Bottom line with any head coach, you are the buck 1541 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 2: stops here. So this two and eight sits square on 1542 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,440 Speaker 2: the shoulders of Bill Belichick. 1543 01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:18,640 Speaker 4: And the crazy thing about it to me is he 1544 01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:24,360 Speaker 4: can steal coach. But the problem with him ego yeah, 1545 01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:26,840 Speaker 4: and trying to be the GM as well. Those are 1546 01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:31,439 Speaker 4: the players he's picking like, these guys have no talent. 1547 01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:34,160 Speaker 4: So I think if he goes to a situation because 1548 01:15:34,280 --> 01:15:36,400 Speaker 4: I've heard rumblings that he may go somewhere else or whatever. 1549 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:42,479 Speaker 4: He has to solely focus on coaching, not your players. 1550 01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:43,880 Speaker 4: We're going to bring in the best players that we 1551 01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:45,519 Speaker 4: can bring in. You coach him up, and I think 1552 01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 4: that's a big part of the problem. 1553 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:49,320 Speaker 2: All right, coming happ on the other side, more NFL 1554 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 2: news and we'll sort of shake out over these last 1555 01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:55,559 Speaker 2: couple of weeks the different scenarios that could play out 1556 01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:58,720 Speaker 2: in which four schools end up in the playoff. 1557 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:03,679 Speaker 3: This is Fox Football Saturday.

By the way, I 1582 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 2: didn't get your thoughts on Brady Hoak announcing his retirement 1583 01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 2: from San Diego State New future for the Aztecs. I 1584 01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 2: love Brady Hoak. Yeah, he's a great guy, great guy. 1585 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:37,680 Speaker 2: But he announced his retirement. It was, yeah, by the way, 1586 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,800 Speaker 2: very tough week in San Diego. Peter Seidler was the 1587 01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:42,600 Speaker 2: owner of the Patres, someone that I got to know 1588 01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:46,720 Speaker 2: very very well, absolutely wonderful man. I put it on 1589 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:51,840 Speaker 2: social media that he was without question, the greatest team 1590 01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:55,439 Speaker 2: owner in San Diego sports history, because he's the only 1591 01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:58,880 Speaker 2: owner that actually said I'm going to do whatever it takes, 1592 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 2: not just talk the he walked the walk, jacking up 1593 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 2: that payroll of the Potteris didn't work out this year. 1594 01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:07,200 Speaker 2: He had a sense of his own mortality. Had been 1595 01:18:07,200 --> 01:18:09,840 Speaker 2: a two time cancer survivor. I had heard a few 1596 01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:11,960 Speaker 2: months ago that his health had taken a turn for 1597 01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 2: the worse. He passed away, But they Phil Pecko, that 1598 01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:18,960 Speaker 2: place was a ghost town just a few years ago, 1599 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:22,679 Speaker 2: and now they sell out every game. So he proved 1600 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:26,080 Speaker 2: in a so called small market, if you do it 1601 01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 2: right as he did, you can be highly successful. There's 1602 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:34,400 Speaker 2: no such thing as a small market. They're just small spenders. 1603 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 11: Absolutely, and he. 1604 01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:39,639 Speaker 2: Will be missed, no question. The Sidler family obviously will 1605 01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:42,280 Speaker 2: retain and I'm sure they'll follow in his footsteps. 1606 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:45,479 Speaker 3: But he was a wonderful man, wonderful man. 1607 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:47,120 Speaker 11: And I don't know if you saw this, Steve, But 1608 01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 11: so at the owners meeting, I guess they were, you know, 1609 01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:53,680 Speaker 11: talking about the A's in Vegas and all that, you 1610 01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,639 Speaker 11: know kind of stuff. But there was actually a group 1611 01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,600 Speaker 11: of seven to eight owners who were discussing voting no 1612 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:03,880 Speaker 11: till the leader of that group suddenly passed away on Tuesday. 1613 01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 11: Chure about that, No, I did not. Yeah, that was 1614 01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:09,880 Speaker 11: according to uh. I believe it was locked on A's 1615 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:10,680 Speaker 11: who reported that. 1616 01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:13,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, it's just sad that you know. 1617 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, and this is this is the problem 1618 01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:18,559 Speaker 2: for so many sports fans out there. You have a 1619 01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:21,800 Speaker 2: team that you love, right and if you don't have 1620 01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:24,800 Speaker 2: the right owner in place, if you don't have all 1621 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 2: you would hope that the owner of the team that 1622 01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 2: you live and die with feels the same way about 1623 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 2: their team. And unfortunately, I won't say a majority, but 1624 01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:38,759 Speaker 2: pretty close to a majority, don't. It's a business and 1625 01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,719 Speaker 2: they're in it to make money. Yeah, so whether that's 1626 01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 2: moving a team, I mean, this goes forever. 1627 01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:47,880 Speaker 3: That's all they care about. There's the bottom line. 1628 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:49,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, if you have a guy that cares 1629 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:54,360 Speaker 4: about you and that care is reciprocated, it makes it 1630 01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 4: makes you be a little bit more invested in that 1631 01:19:55,960 --> 01:19:56,559 Speaker 4: team for sure. 1632 01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1633 01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:59,240 Speaker 2: So it's a very frustrating. But for Patdre fans, Peter 1634 01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 2: Seidler was godsend, no question about that. I just want 1635 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:05,519 Speaker 2: to do a quick update here on this college football 1636 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:07,280 Speaker 2: playoff as we have a couple of weeks. So if 1637 01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:11,200 Speaker 2: obviously this devastating injury to Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis 1638 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,920 Speaker 2: and by the way, your Louisville Cardinals now will be 1639 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:17,800 Speaker 2: facing Florida State in the ACC championship game. 1640 01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 3: That doesn't help our calls though it doesn't. 1641 01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 4: No, No, we wanted Florida State to be undefeated, in 1642 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,639 Speaker 4: full strength and number four obviously inhabitants to beat them 1643 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:28,639 Speaker 4: and then move forward. 1644 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:30,839 Speaker 2: But if you look at it right now, if Georgia 1645 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 2: runs the table and either Michigan or Ohio State runs 1646 01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:38,200 Speaker 2: the table, you know they're in the playoff. But what 1647 01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:41,360 Speaker 2: if we have two one loss teams in the PAC twelve. 1648 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,799 Speaker 2: I would imagine if Oregon were to run the table 1649 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:48,479 Speaker 2: and win the rematch against Washington, they're in for sure, 1650 01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 2: But Florida State would Jordan Travis out? 1651 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:51,559 Speaker 6: Now? 1652 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:54,479 Speaker 3: I mean, it is wide open. It's going to be 1653 01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:54,920 Speaker 3: wide open. 1654 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,519 Speaker 4: That last spot's going to be interesting because you know, 1655 01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:02,120 Speaker 4: will a two the two lost SEC team get in there? 1656 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:04,679 Speaker 2: I mean, and if Alabama is competitive, then a loss 1657 01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,439 Speaker 2: to Georgia exactly, that could be a case. All right, 1658 01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:09,599 Speaker 2: there's a lot more college football coming up. 1659 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:12,200 Speaker 3: What's gonna happen? Oregon's taking a knockoff washing and keep 1660 01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:14,200 Speaker 3: it right here. This is Fox Sports Radio
