00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 3: Miami's manly wins. Is a physical win.

8
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: I love that.

9
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 3: I want to tell you that Makita tools at the

10
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 3: home depot are built with precision, without shortcuts, just like

11
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 3: the Miami Hurricanes no shortcuts last night. Designed for the

12
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 3: toughest jobs. It's the choice for pros when the job

13
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 3: calls for the best call on Makda built to be

14
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 3: the best available at the home depot. How pros get

15
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 3: it done? I'll tell you what, mister Jeff Schwartz, Happy

16
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 3: New Year to you. Former offensive lineman for the Ducks

17
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 3: in the NFL for eight years. Had to maybe he

18
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 3: didn't have a dog in the fight last night, but

19
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 3: the offensive lineman in you had to love what you

20
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 3: saw from Miami Hurricanes.

21
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,639
Speaker 1: Especially late in that game.

22
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 3: Some big runs and they score a touchdown to go

23
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 3: up ten and put the game away. The old linement

24
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 3: in you you can't turn your nose on that. I

25
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 3: don't care if you had heavy money on Ohio state

26
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 3: that He's just like, I can't help but love Miami

27
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 3: in this spot right here, right. You had to love

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: that last night.

29
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 4: It was great. I made a only couple of wagers.

30
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 4: I made a correct score wager zero to zero and

31
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 4: in the first quarter, So that was nice. And then

32
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 4: I took Carson back to that interception, which did happened.

33
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 4: He play a really good football game the other way,

34
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 4: j Sandfield of interceptions. I can just imagine if they

35
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 4: penned Mario crystal Ball, Miami's head coach, at some point

36
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 4: in that final drive, he might have had ten pants, right.

37
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 4: I mean, that's how excited he was to win that game.

38
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 4: Riding the football. I mean, that's what Mario Cristaball does, right,

39
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 4: And in Mario this year, it has done a great

40
00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 4: job sort of finally finally blending what he loves with

41
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 4: a little bit of more modern football. Right where you

42
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 4: saw that big third and four, We're gonna run a

43
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 4: screen pass right wide, receive a fun screen right like

44
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 4: those and if you notice on that play, you know,

45
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 4: they'll HOIU State defense element all fall flat on their

46
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 4: face because like they are so geared up to stop

47
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 4: the run, and those little things this year have been

48
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 4: into the difference. But this this game reinforced so many

49
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 4: things that I feel about college football. And look, I

50
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 4: know it's one game. It doesn't really it may or

51
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 4: may not matter today or next year. But it changed

52
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 4: the way I feel about a lot. Reinforced some feelings

53
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 4: I've had about college football the last couple of years,

54
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 4: and one of them that I think is really important

55
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 4: is that for playoff caliber teams, Brian, it feels a

56
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 4: lot more like we have to view their season the

57
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 4: way we view NFL teams, where it's not about how

58
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 4: you play in September and October, and that matters, right,

59
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,079
Speaker 4: because you can only get in the playoffs if you

60
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 4: play well, but that the goals is to peak at

61
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 4: the end of the season. Right. Think about Miami season.

62
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 4: Think about where they're at now. They had played good

63
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 4: football for five weeks until they got in the playoffs, right,

64
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 4: and then just they survived if anything, as A and

65
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 4: M and they had their feet under them last night

66
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 4: and they came out roaring last night, right, I mean

67
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 4: they came out like full like just they were so

68
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,839
Speaker 4: much more physical and they played so much faster and

69
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 4: they were ready to go in that game from the

70
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 4: first snap, and the Ohio State was not. So I

71
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 4: think that for playoff caliber teams, whether it's Ohio State

72
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 4: or Miami or Indiana now or Bama or Georgia or

73
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 4: even Texas to some extent, Notre Dame like, yes, you

74
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 4: have to win and lose that. You know, you have

75
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 4: to win enough to get in the postseason. But in

76
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 4: the NFL, we don't view losses in September October like

77
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 4: we don't care at all, Like we're not we don't

78
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 4: preview back in September they lost as we never say

79
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 4: that about any any player might be the reason that

80
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 4: cost them a playoff spot because they lose too many

81
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 4: games or cost them a like for the Rams, for example,

82
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 4: they don't have the one seed because they lost the Panthers.

83
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 4: You know, like we would talk about and that we're

84
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 4: We're never like, well that team lost several weeks ago

85
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 4: that if therefore that No, we never view it that way, right, Brian.

86
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 4: We always view it by how the team is playing.

87
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 4: And this is act the moment and college football don't.

88
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 4: We've never done that. I think we have to change

89
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 4: that now. I think it's time to start looking at

90
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 4: at teams that are playoff caliber, not everyone's playoff caliber. Right,

91
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 4: So we can't just be for everyone, but we look

92
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 4: at it through the lens of what are they doing

93
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 4: now and handicapped games based off of that rather than

94
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 4: the entire team. Because Ohio State had a great season

95
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 4: right the test of season, but one thing that a

96
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 4: lot of people talked about was, hey, guys, like they

97
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 4: might not play many good teams this year. Right, And

98
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 4: and that's my second point is that they we're getting

99
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 4: a point two where like the schedule, because these big

100
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 4: conferences have so many teams, you might have a year

101
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 4: you just don't play anyone. Texas, A and m had

102
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 4: this problem or they didn't play anybody, right, and they

103
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 4: played Miami finally got smoked. Ohio State played essentially two

104
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,239
Speaker 4: and a half worthy teams. They'd beat Texas by seven.

105
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 4: I think Texas might beat them. It'd be different now,

106
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 4: of course, right, they played Michigan, who can't throw the

107
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 4: ball with a truefessional quarterback, and they played Indiana and

108
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 4: Miami for whatever you want they played there to day

109
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 4: like that's some tough I see games. It's just how

110
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 4: dose they just didn't really get tested all season and

111
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 4: you see the result of that last night. So schedule,

112
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 4: but more importantly, how do you feel about my viewing

113
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 4: in the lens of an NFL schedule?

114
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it makes sense. The first thing it makes

115
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 3: me think of is when Tom Brady won that first

116
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 3: Super Bowl with Tampa. Right, they weren't playing great football

117
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 3: all season long, but they won their final four regular

118
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 3: season games and they rode right into the playoffs and

119
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 3: won four playoff games. And it's like, it would be

120
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 3: silly to view whatever the record was, like nine and

121
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 3: eight or something. I'd have to go back and look

122
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 3: what their exact record was, but it wasn't anything sparkling.

123
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: They might have had a.

124
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 4: Tie, well there were wildcard team, remember.

125
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 3: Their wildcard team, And it was just like, you know,

126
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: if you would have looked at their one loss record,

127
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 3: you'd be like, this team is not impressive at all.

128
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 3: But if you looked at them peaking at the right time,

129
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 3: you probably viewed them differently. And maybe there's some truth

130
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 3: to that. With Miami, where it was funny during the

131
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 3: game last night. They were like, hey, at one time

132
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 3: in this season, they were the number two team in

133
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: the country, and there were a lot of people saying, hey,

134
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 3: Miami might be the best team in college football here right,

135
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 3: like they've got NFL talent, real dudes in the trenches.

136
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 3: And then they lost two of three and we're like, yeah,

137
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 3: forget that, and we never recalibrated, We never revisited that, like, hey,

138
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 3: maybe they are what we thought they were in a

139
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 3: good way earlier in the season. It's just, you know,

140
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 3: Carson Beck bad. Carson Beck showed up and threw four

141
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 3: picks against Louisville, and we're just like, out of side,

142
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: out of mind. We didn't think of Miami like that again.

143
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 3: But to your point, they're playing their best football when

144
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 3: it matters most. And at least last night they were

145
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 3: that team that we thought, hey, maybe they are the

146
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: best team in college football.

147
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 4: I tweeted out when they started the season well and

148
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 4: I thought they were the best team in the country.

149
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 4: And then after they lost to SMU all takes exposed

150
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 4: just like crushed me for that take, right, I thought,

151
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 4: go back and ask them how that takes going.

152
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 3: It's not over yet, right, Like That's the thing is

153
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 3: like we're still playing football here.

154
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: We still have a twelve team playoff.

155
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 3: If they sneak into this thing, they've got real talent

156
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: and can make some noise. Now, I think this is, uh,

157
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 3: you know, a boys to men's situation, like the you know,

158
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 3: the end of the road, you know that whole. I

159
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 3: think we've come to the end of the road. I

160
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: think the Dogs win today, and I think the Dogs

161
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 3: win next time they play. So I don't think Miami

162
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 3: wins another game. But that was an outstanding performance last night.

163
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what.

164
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 3: The bigger picture for me, Jeff is, you watch some

165
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 3: of these teams just take on the personality of their

166
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 3: head coach. We see this with Georgia, right Like Georgia's

167
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 3: personality is Kirby Smart's personality.

168
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: Georgia is a.

169
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 3: Team that just at sixty minutes, man, they are going

170
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 3: to battle you. They might look to like the Tennessee

171
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 3: game on the road. It looked bad for them. They're

172
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 3: trailing and they're just coming after you, and they're just

173
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 3: all right, next play, next play. Okay, we know we're trailing,

174
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 3: but let's see if we can make something happen. The

175
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 3: next play, Oh, we hit a guy, you know, hitting

176
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 3: getting a Willie Mays catch in the corner of the

177
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 3: end zone. Like all that helps, All right, let's try

178
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 3: to get a stop. We get to stop. They end

179
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 3: up winning that game. That's they just battle you. That's

180
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 3: a gritty team. And Kirby Smart is that guy you

181
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 3: go back to. I was just thinking this morning, remember

182
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 3: that great Rose Bowl performance against.

183
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Georgia. Way was it came for the ed Ages. Yeah?

184
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was something that that was when they had

185
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 3: Nick Chubb and Sony Michelle at running back and that

186
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 3: one two combo and when Georgia won that game, Kirby

187
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 3: Smart is running on the field and he's like boom

188
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 3: and effort, like he's I'm like, he's Georgia. Georgia is him,

189
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 3: Like that's their personality is his personality And you saw

190
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 3: that last night with Miami. Like we can talk all

191
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 3: we want about Mario Christball and he's had some head

192
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 3: scratching moves over the years, going back to his days

193
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: at Oregon, how he misused some of his quarterbacks, like

194
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert who's now an NFL stud. He was so

195
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 3: careful with Justin Herbert and then when they had the

196
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 3: game won against Georgia Tech, they just needed to kneel

197
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 3: on the football and he's like, let's.

198
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: Keep running it, and they fumbled and lost the game.

199
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 3: Like he's had some ridiculous like head coaching decisions before,

200
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 3: but last night, that was about physicality, that was about violence.

201
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 3: He was preaching that and that is what they did.

202
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 3: I want to share just a little snippet. This was

203
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 3: after the first quarter on ESPN So good that.

204
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,959
Speaker 1: I could just picture you watching this.

205
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 4: And you're like, oh, yes, that is why I want

206
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 4: to hear from Mario well and I and he despises

207
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 4: his interviews, and this was an incredible Mario interaction.

208
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: So good. Check this out on ESPN. ABC.

209
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 4: Coach, how would you describe the impact of a key Messador.

210
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: And Ruben Bain Every single game they show.

211
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 5: Up full throttle all the.

212
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 4: Time to affect the line of scripts, the affect the quarterback.

213
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 4: We gotta do a better job. We're starting to do

214
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,599
Speaker 4: some good things up front the trench, and we just

215
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 4: gotta be more physical and more violent.

216
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about.

217
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 3: At the end there, you can we need more physicality,

218
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 3: more violence, and that's what they did. Man, that was

219
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 3: their whole whole approach. That's his whole approach. That's what

220
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 3: he is to a t and that's what they.

221
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 1: Were last night.

222
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 3: They took the personality of Mario Christopaul and that's exactly

223
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 3: what they had to do to win that game.

224
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 4: Well, in the interview too, I think they asked him

225
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: something like yeah, like the second question they asked him,

226
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 4: and he just like looked he dead pained the guy

227
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 4: like yes, and it was like that. I was like

228
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 4: that the end of it. Look obviously very very happy

229
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 4: for Mario in this Miami program, right, Like they this

230
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 4: is why he was hired, right, former player had won

231
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 4: a championship there. He was hired for his physcality and

232
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 4: for his program building. It takes time, right, It's this

233
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 4: fourth year that's about when you should start seeing some

234
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 4: of these results. You know. They if you can rush

235
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,719
Speaker 4: the passer, you're in every game. Man. An interception they

236
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 4: had was just a brilliant, like film study interception, right,

237
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 4: and that changed the entire game because Ohio State was

238
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 4: sort of not they were playing okay, they were driving

239
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 4: down the field and then you throw a really bad

240
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 4: interception and just deflated the entire team. Right now, people

241
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 4: are going to talk about this and we should bring

242
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 4: it up. The teams off of buy in the playoff

243
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 4: now are zero to five. Yeah, now it's fair. We

244
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 4: got we got to go back to last year. What

245
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,599
Speaker 4: the scenario was exactly the right, This is what I

246
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 4: mentioned on social media last year. Three of the teams,

247
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 4: so two of the teams were big underdogs. Those don't count, Okay, that.

248
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: Was Boise State and Arizona State. Right that It was

249
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 3: the dumb set. It was the It was the NFL

250
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 3: playoff format. Basically, like they said, if you win your

251
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: conference in college football, you get a bye.

252
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so like you had.

253
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 3: The number nine team was the three seed, the number

254
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 3: twelve team was the four seed. Okay, like that matters, Okay,

255
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 3: and we'll get to the NFL because that's exactly what

256
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 3: the NFL still has but college football. After one year,

257
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 3: they were like, this is dumb. We're changing it, right,

258
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 3: but that directly impacts how those teams with the first

259
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 3: round by fared in the second round last season for.

260
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 4: Sure, Right, but now we have another team off of

261
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 4: Boye who didn't play well in Ohio States, and not

262
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 4: only didn't play well like didn't look at themselves for

263
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,719
Speaker 4: entire half. I mean, like like the hitting, like the

264
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 4: physicality that Ohio State do. Their defense is so physical

265
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 4: and there was some big hits early on, but the

266
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 4: trench play Matt they got. They have not been pushed

267
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 4: around that the entire sea and they play good office

268
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 4: squads not pushed around that all season. And offensively just

269
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 4: no rhythm whatsoever. It took them a half to gain,

270
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 4: which is really what it does, right if you're off

271
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 4: for a month, it takes about a half to get

272
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 4: into rhythm. And I thought that made played a big difference.

273
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 4: It is rich so because Oregon fans last year obviously

274
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 4: played Ohio State in the Rose Bowl off a month rest,

275
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 4: and we said like, hey, you know, I mean, you know,

276
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 4: Oregon probably would have lost, but it makes I think

277
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 4: we kind of made a difference. Oregon didn't playing it

278
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 4: for a month at Ohio State fans just like mocked

279
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 4: us endlessly. Now or like the bye, the bye, and

280
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 4: I do and I do wonder like today when you

281
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 4: start talking about the Oregon Tech Texas Tech game, this

282
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 4: game that's a close game right by spread. Organ coaches

283
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 4: this week have talked a lot about this year's schedule

284
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 4: being so much better than last year for them, where

285
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 4: they got to have a home playoff game against James Madison,

286
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,599
Speaker 4: they got to a tune up game essentially call what

287
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 4: is a tune up game? Right? And how how much

288
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 4: better they're prepared for this game today because of the

289
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 4: schedule and the difference in it this year where they

290
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 4: got to play a game, they got to practice a

291
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 4: little differently, got prepared a little bit differently. And how

292
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 4: how that is made this they think their preparation for

293
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 4: tech Tech that much better. And if tech Tech comes

294
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 4: out slow today, I do wonder if people start talking

295
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 4: about like, yeah, the adviser done well.

296
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 3: I mean, it's one of those things until it changes.

297
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 3: This is what we know, you know, as far as

298
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 3: where we are right now, these teams that had a

299
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: first round by they are zero to five in the

300
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 3: second round. And there was a little bit to that

301
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 3: last night, right like right away, you know, Miami is

302
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 3: taking it to Ohio State. Ohio State is not crisp.

303
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 3: They're not executing well. They got shut out in the

304
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 3: first half. Right, Like, if if Ohio State plays the

305
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 3: first round, if they have a first round game, maybe

306
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 3: they look a lot better last night. Like they did

307
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 3: look little bit sluggish. They did look a little bit

308
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 3: uh just not crisp. They just were not on point.

309
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 3: And this was the part, the part that you were

310
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 3: talking about, Jeff, you like this better. At the end

311
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 3: of the first quarter with Chrystal ball.

312
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 6: What what why are you equipped to win the rock fight?

313
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 3: I was just like, all right, coach cool, thanks back

314
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 3: up to you guys.

315
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 4: It was like the wrong question asked Mario. It was

316
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 4: very It was very It was more its face, I

317
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 4: guess face what is what? What are you asking me?

318
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 4: Why are we why are you asking me this question? Yeah,

319
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 4: those those interviews continue to be very worth our time.

320
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 4: But uh, look it was such a good win for

321
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 4: the program for Mario last night. You know, I didy

322
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 4: win a championship last season. But Ohio State fans are

323
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 4: taking this. They're taking it hard rough. I mean, look,

324
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 4: they were the favorite to win the championship again this season.

325
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 4: You have a year when you have all these offensive

326
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 4: all these offensive weapons, right and Tates and you have

327
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 4: and you have Smith and Saying, and you figure that

328
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 4: those will carry you did last year to a championship.

329
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 4: Your defense, you're the defense this year. Might be more

330
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 4: talent than the defense they had last season. It's like,

331
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 4: it's a dude, I watched the Indiana offense or so,

332
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 4: how's the defensive buddy the house? The defensive linemen were

333
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 4: terrorizing Indiana's offense live. It's good offensive line that did

334
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 4: not look at the same Ohio State defensive line last night.

335
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 4: Part of it was not even Notre Dame. Notre dame.

336
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 4: I mean, Miami had the ability to run right at them,

337
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 4: which a lot of teams don't. And I think that's

338
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 4: just a physicality check. And how's they just a lot

339
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 4: of teams just can't run the ball right at them.

340
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 4: They weren't used to that feeling of double teams and

341
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 4: running the ball vertically right at the right in their face.

342
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 4: And they just never really, it never got better throughout

343
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 4: the game. They just never were comfortable as a defensive

344
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 4: line the entire game.

345
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 3: Man, you would have thought you wouldn't have even recognized

346
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 3: me yesterday. You know, I am like screaming, I'm going nuts,

347
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 3: like rootings for Miami. It really wasn't rooting for Miami

348
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 3: as much as it was rooting for myself, to be right.

349
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 3: I don't know about you Jeff, But I root for

350
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 3: me to be right.

351
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: That's what that's what.

352
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 3: I was so right about Ohio State being overrated, Like

353
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 3: you give Miami full credit for that win. Okay, they

354
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 3: played a great game last night. They're so physical. We

355
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 3: know what they did against Ohio State. But the way

356
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 3: Ohio State has been talked about this season was never correct.

357
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 3: Like Ohio State was talked about in such glowing terms like.

358
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Ohio State. Their defense, how do you

359
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: even think about scoring on them? They're just all unbelievable,

360
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: and it's.

361
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 3: Like they haven't played anybody. They beat Texas by seven

362
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 3: at home. They barely beat Texas, a team that gets

363
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 3: clowned seemingly by everybody all season long, and then we

364
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 3: turn around and it's like, well, Ohio State beat them.

365
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 3: It's like they beat Texas by seven at home, all right,

366
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 3: that's one of arch Manning's like only handful of starts

367
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 3: in college football at the time.

368
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: And then they got beaten by Indiana in the Big

369
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: Ten championship game. That's it. That's the resume.

370
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 3: The rest of it is Wisconsin and this team in

371
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,640
Speaker 3: this run of the mill Big that's it. Like they

372
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 3: have great, great talent, but they were never that juggernaut

373
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 3: team that many made them out to be. And that's

374
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 3: not to say I think they suck. You know, people

375
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 3: struggle with overrated. All overrated means is their reputation is

376
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 3: greater than the reality, and that's exactly what they were

377
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 3: all season long.

378
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: Their reputation was oh, Ohio State, Oh my gosh, this

379
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: dam And it's like the reality wasn't that.

380
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 3: They were not that same squad this season, And I

381
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 3: think a lot of it was tied to last season

382
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 3: where they wanted all they got hot at the right time,

383
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 3: and even if you look at that, I'm not taking

384
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 3: anything away from last season, but as it applies to

385
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 3: this season, right yet, you were all world against Tennessee,

386
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 3: a flawed team in the first round. You blew the

387
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 3: doors off the Ducks, which was very impressive. But then

388
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 3: you survive against Quinn Viewers and Texas. That's a close game.

389
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 3: You survived. He held on for dear life against Notre Dame,

390
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 3: like it was that enough for you to get the

391
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 3: benefit of the doubt all across the board this season, No,

392
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 3: it wasn't. So I thought they were ripe for the

393
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 3: picking and it was sweet to see that come to

394
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 3: fruition last night. That was a that was a beautiful

395
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 3: display for yours truly. I'll tell you what.

396
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 4: Jeff I had said this week. I thought the game

397
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 4: would be UH close, Butjase would win. On my podcast,

398
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 4: I mean to do it with Chris Filika the Bear,

399
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 4: and he's a Miami grad and he's been pretty right

400
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 4: about Miami this year, and he came on like boastfully,

401
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 4: it was like, Miami's gonna win this game, and people

402
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,360
Speaker 4: people crushed him on social media, and of course they

403
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 4: never came back to say you were right.

404
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: That's weird how that works.

405
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, like you make you make a prediction and

406
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 4: ends up being right. Look, Miami, I think I don't think.

407
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 4: I know, you know, physicality wins football games. And me

408
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 4: Carson back through for like one hundred and thirty yards,

409
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 4: like it was.

410
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: It just ran it man fifty that's all you need.

411
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: You're good.

412
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 4: That turnover makes such a big difference, right it was

413
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 4: in Ohio State failed in the red zone a couple

414
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 4: of times, which was their problem against against uh in

415
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 4: the enda too was poor red zone. You know, they

416
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 4: failed in the red zone, and they failed in the

417
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 4: red zone again sight, they had a miss field goal

418
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 4: that the interception like those are things you can't do

419
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 4: in playoff games and you're looking looking forward today like

420
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 4: Texas Tech is one of the worst teams in the

421
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 4: red zone in the country. They can't. They can't score touchdowns.

422
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 4: That that matters, and you have to be able to

423
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 4: score touchdowns when you get them. You if you'll go

424
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 4: every now and then, it's fine, But you can't have

425
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 4: a seven point swing like that. You can't throw an

426
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 4: interception that least is Miami seven points when you're in

427
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 4: your own red.

428
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: Zone, right, no doubt about that.

Speaker 3: a college football player said something yesterday that NBA player

440
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook would be very proud of. We'll share that

441
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,640
Speaker 3: with you. Coming up, He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Brian, though.

442
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 3: One for the guys. Two pros and a cup of

443
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: Joe right here on Fox Sports Radio. A hotly debated

444
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 3: topic in the hot sauce world is who's this year's MVP.

445
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 3: I'm not talking about players, I'm talking about poors. The

446
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 3: most valuable poor. I know who mine is. My most

447
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 3: valuable poor is the original Louisiana Hot Sauce. Huh, here's

448
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 3: why it's the MVP. This sauce has shown me what

449
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 3: it's really made of. Three hard hitting ingredientss, vinegar, and salt.

450
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 3: It's the perfect balance of heat and flavor. Now that's

451
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 3: MVP material. What makes my most valuable poor different from

452
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 3: any old poor is in the name value. Other hot

453
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 3: sauces are so second string, but the original Louisiana Hot Sauce.

454
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 3: On game day, it'll dress any of your favorite eats

455
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 3: with ease.

456
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: Drizzled on nachos, Burger's pizza, and gumbo.

457
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 3: Let's the bus get after it on gumbo over here, Lorena.

458
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 3: That taste is gonna score. Finally, just take a look

459
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 3: at its record for almost one hundred years. Its flavor

460
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 3: is undefeated. A tasty Louisiana legacy like that deserves the

461
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 3: most Valuable poor title. That is why the original Louisiana

462
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 3: Hot Sauce is not just my MVP, it's my VP. Huh,

463
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 3: that's Louisiana Hot.

464
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: Buy you some.

Speaker 4: Ohio stayed with the ball to Miami twenty two low snaps,

495
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 4: saying throws intercepting checkouby Thomas. They might go all the way.

496
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 4: They took ract right to the other town. He's at

497
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 4: the thirty twenty fifteenth ten.

498
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: But touchdown, touchdown.

499
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 4: I did kyat dey Scott. It's kyat de Scott. He

500
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 4: jumped the route seventy eight yards where miamy touchdown.

501
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: There you go. It's all about the you, right.

502
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 4: He says, like that that was saw wasn't it scored?

503
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 4: The touchdout.

504
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: It's just like Miami ricade, you know, like that's it.

505
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: You're just fired up right there, you know.

506
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 4: I think that that flight home yesterday must have been

507
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,719
Speaker 4: just the best. I'm a text. I know their offensive

508
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 4: line coach very well. I'm gonna I wonder if he's

509
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 4: awake right now. I bet he's awakeste I bet they're

510
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 4: all ways.

511
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 3: They might not have gone to sleep. Man, that was

512
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 3: compliments of Hurricanes Radio Network. But man, you think about

513
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 3: that pick six and really what it meant for the

514
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 3: second half, Like, imagine, scenario is flipped, it's turned around.

515
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 3: If you know, imagine if Ohio State not only avoids

516
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 3: the pick six but puts points on the board on

517
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 3: that drive.

518
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: You know, we're talking to like a seven to three

519
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: game at worst. You know.

520
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: So that was a massive play, as it turns out,

521
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 3: in the second half and in that game, and you.

522
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: Never know what happens.

523
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 3: If I thought watching that play live, because I can't

524
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 3: remember who was putting heat on the quarterback. It might

525
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 3: have been Bain Junior, I'm not sure, but one of

526
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 3: the the DNS kind of jumped it and it looked

527
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 3: like it was going to be a negative play and

528
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 3: it would have been their second negative play forced in

529
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 3: a row. And then the dB just jumped it, and

530
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, that's a bad idea for saying to

531
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 3: throw that ball.

532
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 4: And sure enough, well it was a design. It was

533
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 4: like a wide receiver screen like it was designed to

534
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 4: throw the ball. So that's why the ball got thrown

535
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 4: because that that was like, that was the play. It

536
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 4: was like an r P O screen type of thing.

537
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,479
Speaker 4: And so that to me is like a film study interception, right,

538
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 4: like seeing that on film and he was ready to go.

539
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 4: So look that game again, I mean, you know it

540
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 4: is it boiled down to the physicality, right, and one

541
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 4: team just beat up the other team in the trenches.

542
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 4: And that's Look, there are many reasons to win football games.

543
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 4: One of them is just beating up your opponents. And

544
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 4: that's like there's and I look, I loved it last night,

545
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 4: you know, I think also to you know, I know, Brian,

546
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 4: you want your Irish in the in the in the

547
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 4: in the postseason. But I have a feeling the playoff

548
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,880
Speaker 4: committee was like see see see we got it right now.

549
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 3: Now they're not going to feel as good when Bama

550
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 3: gets crushed today, but you know that was that was

551
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 3: a w for them last night.

552
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 1: For sure.

553
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 4: The thing that's very simple, if you have a playoff,

554
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 4: you have to include all the teams that can win

555
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,239
Speaker 4: and the already was a team that could have won

556
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 4: the championship this season.

557
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: Absolutely, you can't include.

558
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 4: You cannot have two G five teams in and take

559
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 4: the spot from Notre Dame. You know. The argument is

560
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 4: is always, well, the tournament has thirty one at large

561
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 4: as thirty one eight teams, right, thirty one on a

562
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 4: mat qualifiers, that's ay from.

563
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: A college football has got twelve spots, that's it, right.

564
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 4: But the difference, Brian, is that in tournam everyone could

565
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 4: win a championship is in the tournament already, Like there's

566
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 4: no they're all in, that's right. So yeah, so the

567
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 4: spot you're taking is from an eleven seed ranked thirteenth

568
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 4: ACC member. You're like, they don't write, they don't be

569
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 4: in the tournament. Notre Dame was a team that could

570
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 4: win a championship and they were out of the tournament.

571
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 4: And so that's everyone's complaints, right.

572
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: So that's the question. It leads to, do you eliminate

573
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: all G five's?

574
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,479
Speaker 3: Is that what you would like to see is that

575
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 3: the short syndicate official model going forward?

576
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 4: I don't know, because I think you could have this

577
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 4: year if you would have had eleven eleven teams in,

578
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,439
Speaker 4: which would have been including Notre Dame and two Lane.

579
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 4: There's no argument to be made from anybody like like that.

580
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 4: Vanner Bill can argue, sure, and and and know Texas

581
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 4: we want to be in, but like you really don't

582
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 4: have a great argument.

583
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: And so I don't lose to Florida. You've got three

584
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: losses like hit the road.

585
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 4: Man, right, yeah, And so that would have been I

586
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 4: think the best solution or the best answer just would

587
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,479
Speaker 4: have been, okay, keep it at keep it as it is,

588
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 4: but that you just have one G five team. And

589
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 4: to be fair, looked, last year, Boise State was a

590
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 4: top fifteen team the entire season. Remember they went to

591
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 4: Oregon and lost by three and organ two special team

592
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 4: touchdowns to to win that game. Jam you and two

593
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 4: Lane were not top five teams all season, I mean

594
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 4: tough fifteens all season. Like so to me, like that's

595
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 4: just a big difference, right. And so when you have

596
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 4: a situation where you leave out a noted aim team

597
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 4: that could win a champion and they were the fourth

598
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 4: best odds the legitimate good team. Are they gonna win?

599
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 4: I don't know, but they weren't even in the dance.

600
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 4: They weren't even in the dance, and so I'm sure

601
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 4: the committee was happy that the Miami won last night

602
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 4: because they can prove the CE see we got it right.

603
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 4: But in the end they they didn't they get it right.

604
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 4: Iris should have been in over JMU. That would have

605
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 4: been the answer, and it didn't happen. Hopefully it correct

606
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 4: itself heading in the next season.

607
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 3: You know, it's funny because just for a second, with

608
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 3: Notre Dame being promised a playoff spot if they're in

609
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,479
Speaker 3: the top twelve, if they're just ranked in the top twelve,

610
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 3: they're promised a playoff spot, and I think it's garbage.

611
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 3: As me from I'm from South Bend, I lead Notre

612
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 3: Dame football.

613
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: It's such garbage.

614
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 3: Any automatic spots, they earn your spot, whether it's the

615
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 3: Big Ten, you shouldn't be promised four spots or the

616
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 3: SEC promised four spots.

617
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 1: No matter what.

618
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 3: Maybe there's a year where you don't have a fourth

619
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: team that deserves it, you shouldn't be promised anything. Same

620
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 3: thing goes for Notre Dame. If you're in the top

621
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 3: twelve this season, that shouldn't be promised. But the point

622
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 3: I'm trying to make is we only look at that

623
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 3: from one angle where it's like, hey, why would you

624
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 3: schedule Notre Dame going forward? If you're USC? For instance? Right, Okay,

625
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 3: Notre Dame at the end of the season. USC is

626
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 3: ranked number eleven, Notre Dame is ranked number twelve. Notre

627
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 3: Dame's automatically in. That could mean you're out, right, so

628
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 3: why would your schedule them? That's a good argument, but

629
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 3: that's the only way it gets looked at. The other

630
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 3: way is what you're talking about for this year, it

631
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 3: would mean no JMU, right, I mean Notre Dame is

632
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 3: in there, and well, I guess they still technically would

633
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 3: have gotten in, just based on the way the setup is,

634
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 3: it would have meant no Miami.

635
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: How crazy is that?

636
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 3: Based on what we saw last night, no Miami would

637
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 3: have been there, and that's the head to head win

638
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 3: and they're phased out. If you have Bama in, then

639
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 3: Miami is out. If Notre Dame is automatically in, that's

640
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 3: crazy too.

641
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 4: So the automatic qualifier discussion with the big tem proposal

642
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 4: White they have four aqs for sec A Big ten, right,

643
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 4: that's their proposal for like the twenty fourteen playoff ORMs

644
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 4: whatever it is. And their argument, Brian, is that if

645
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 4: you have auto that qualifiers, that means that your conference

646
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 4: is essentially deciding who goes your conference play is not

647
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 4: the committee, right, So if you do if you do

648
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 4: it that way, like you say, the four Big ten teams,

649
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 4: the four six teams, it takes the decision out of

650
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 4: the committee's hands. It just and looks at conference record

651
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 4: and conference results. So I understand from that perspective of

652
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 4: we just want the conference results to matter more than

653
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 4: what the committee thinks for every team. So I get that.

654
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 4: But your point about in a given year there might

655
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 4: be six Big ten teams or some of these teams

656
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 4: that that that deserve to go. Look, in the end,

657
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 4: though I've said the same thing all the time, the

658
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 4: playoff is about finding a champion. We don't need teams

659
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 4: twelve through sixteen even in this is they're not winning

660
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 4: a championship. And if you expand it, fine, you're expanding

661
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 4: it because you just want the revenue from more playoff games.

662
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 4: You're not expanding it to actually look fuck, okay, look

663
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 4: bowl game results don't matter. I think we love talking.

664
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 6: Oh, the Big Ten is in the SEC states, so

665
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 6: many yeah.

666
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 4: It doesn't mean anything. But like watching Vandy who had

667
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 4: most of most of their whole team yestery, their tight

668
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 4: end was out, Like they're not a playoff team. No,

669
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 4: like they're a playoff team. Texas is not a playoff team,

670
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 4: even they're playing better. I'm like, I'm not disagree with that.

671
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 4: It's just not a playoff team. And so the expanding

672
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 4: is only is only to either be nice however gets

673
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 4: in it's a participation tournament or for revenue, right, or

674
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 4: maybe people don't think the balls matter. I'll tell you what, man,

675
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 4: as the Bulls have gotten better. Right at this time

676
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 4: of the year, we have better teams playing bowl games.

677
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 4: Guess what the competition has been better. Brian Like, yes,

678
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 4: Southern miss And and law Tech. I'm sorry those two

679
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 4: schools are bringing you guys up, Like, yeah, that ball

680
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 4: game is not gonna be good. It's two seven to

681
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 4: five teams, but.

682
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 3: Like they're going after each other's next, you know, like

683
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 3: they are, but it's not good football.

684
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 4: I tweet this out the other day at Jeff Schwartz.

685
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 4: When you I don't watch a ton of Sun Belt

686
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 4: football or America in football. I watched, I used to

687
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: watch you know, Memphis and North Texas like some of

688
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 4: the better teams. There's a reason why the team is

689
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 4: seven and five. If you watch their seven and five

690
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 4: bowl game, you know, like like you can you see

691
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 4: why they're seven and five, Like, oh, that makes sense.

692
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 4: But the better, the better teams are starting to play

693
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 4: in bowl games and it's a good football game because

694
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 4: they're good football teams like Georgia Tech, and and and

695
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 4: and BAU was a great bowl game TCU USC. They're

696
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 4: so value I'm used so value in bowl games. Yeah,

697
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 4: if you can get through sort of the beginning of

698
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 4: the bowl season and they're going away now that being

699
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 4: wrapped into a bigger playoff. But I'm not one of

700
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 4: the people the things we need to explain the playoffs.

701
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 4: Twelve is good. If we just put noted a man

702
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 4: like you should have, then you would have had the

703
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 4: eleven best teams in the country playing, and that would

704
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 4: have solved all the all the problems with should we

705
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 4: expand should we not expand? Now the buye is you

706
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 4: we'll see how the team's playing off off of buy

707
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 4: I wonder if that gets eradicated to where we go

708
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 4: to sixteen teams and no buys right, But it does

709
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 4: feel like they're gonna have to be that big of

710
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 4: adjustment if you just let note name in the post

711
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 4: using in the first place.

712
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing is if it's if it's up

713
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 3: to me, if college football, if the committee they're like, hey, Brian,

714
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 3: you get any ideas for what the format should look like,

715
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 3: I've got, I'd be like, yeah, I do. I have

716
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,879
Speaker 3: a couple ideas that you should implement this immediately.

717
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: I would keep it at twelve teams. I think it's

718
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: the right number.

719
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,479
Speaker 3: Now they're gonna do what you just said right there, Jeff,

720
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 3: They're going to move it to sixteen teams.

721
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:24,320
Speaker 1: It's going to happen.

722
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,839
Speaker 3: It means more money, more revenue, more this more that

723
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 3: they're not going to turn their nose on more. That's

724
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 3: just what they do. I would keep it at twelve.

725
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 3: I think it's the right number. You have a quality field.

726
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 3: The regular season means a lot, you know, there's a

727
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 3: lot writing on these games. You're not you know, opening

728
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 3: it up a little bit more and watering it down

729
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 3: just a little bit more. I think twelve is the

730
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 3: right number. Now, what I also would do, I would

731
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 3: never have automatic spots. You're not guaranteed anything Big ten.

732
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 3: You're not guaranteed anything. SEC You're not guaranteed anything.

733
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: Notre Dame.

734
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,800
Speaker 3: You earn it right, Like no automatic spots. And the

735
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 3: last thing I would do. It's something that your coach

736
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 3: Dan Landing was talking about it Oregon. I give him

737
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: a lot of credit. I've been talking about this for

738
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 3: a long time. All home games except the championship game.

739
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 3: Just like the NFL, everybody plays a home game until

740
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 3: we get to the super Bowl. College football should do

741
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 3: the same thing. Everything should be a home game until

742
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,839
Speaker 3: we get to the championship game. I'd have it at

743
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 3: the Rose Bowl every single year. Oh what about the

744
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 3: Orange Bowl? Screw the Orange Bowl? What about the Fiesta?

745
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 3: I don't care about the Fiesta. To get it out

746
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 3: of here. It's not good for college football, are you

747
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 3: telling me? Like, as great as the atmosphere was last night,

748
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 3: it's way better if that's in the shoe and Miami

749
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 3: goes in there and takes them down in their own crip.

750
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 1: That is way better for college football.

751
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 4: The whole thing feels like kind of sterile, right, Like,

752
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 4: it doesn't feel like it's it feels again, it feels

753
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,919
Speaker 4: more NFL, right where you have these neutrals. It feels

754
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 4: like Super Bowls, right, like neutral site game. Yeah, it

755
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 4: doesn't kind of have the feel I think of to

756
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 4: your point of of like a home like you should

757
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 4: if you're the two seed, you should have a home

758
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 4: playoff game like you has the NFL. You be like, uh, Patriots,

759
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 4: sorry you went for you the two to give.

760
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 1: Thee You're in the f tempe Real, what come on?

761
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 4: Dan Lanning also suggested yesterday that college football should play

762
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 4: on only Saturdays and the season should basically the playoffs

763
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 4: would just be in the month of December, which is

764
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 4: guess what the NFL does their playoffs in five weeks

765
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 4: The culgeable does not.

766
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: That's including a bye week, right, yeah, sure, and.

767
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 4: They collag football plays their their last regus the week

768
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 4: at Fasgiving and then they have championship weekend and then

769
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 4: they don't play for twenty five days twenty six days

770
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 4: for the teams off a bye to wonder if that's

771
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 4: something that that's considered sort of or look, you start

772
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 4: the season earlier, earlier, should and you give yourself a

773
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,879
Speaker 4: little bit of breathing room because you know again like and.

774
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 1: That helps the transfer window.

775
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 3: We got the portal opening tomorrow until the sixteenth.

776
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: Yeah tomorrow, Yes, yeah, you've got You've got.

777
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 3: Free agency during your playoff run. It's so dumb, like

778
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 3: they would never have NFL free agency during the NFL point.

779
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 4: Does not have a starter, But we have like a

780
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 4: significant backup on our defense for one of our safety

781
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 4: in the border today not playing like that's actually like

782
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 4: out of all the losses, Like that's a pretty big

783
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 4: deal for us. We don't have most people have a

784
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 4: backup safety, like we're gonna play a true freshman. I

785
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 4: think today playing us first STAPs of the season is

786
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 4: our backup safety. Not great?

787
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, uh all right, coming up next, Now, we did

788
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 3: have miked up footage a few years ago. Remember Sam

789
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 3: Darnold with the Jets where he's like I'm seeing ghosts.

790
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 3: That was a big deal. There was something that a

791
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,760
Speaker 3: college football player said yesterday. It's not the same message,

792
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,399

810
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,919
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook. Yesterday when I was watching the cheese It Bowl.

811
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 3: We had the Citrus Bowl going on. Texas beat Michigan

812
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 3: by two touchdowns. They won forty one to twenty seven.

813
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 3: That's right, Lorena, delicious cheese its. But Russell Westbrook bet

814
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:51,839
Speaker 3: in the NBA for a long time.

815
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 4: I love chees its. I totally forgot about that.

816
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, very smart woman right there. How can you not?

817
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook once said, I've been blessed with the unique

818
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 3: ability be to not give a f right.

819
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: Oh, and that's what I that's what I.

820
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 3: Remembered yesterday seeing Arch manning on the bench and they

821
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 3: just showed him on camera and he goes, I'm just

822
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 3: gonna stop giving an f right.

823
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna stop giving a bleep.

824
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 3: And that was great, Jeff, because look, it's not like

825
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 3: he's saying I'm going to throw five interceptions. What do

826
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 3: I care. What he's saying is, I'm not gonna put

827
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 3: handcuffs on myself. You know, I'm not gonna like think, oh,

828
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 3: if I throw this ball, it might get intercepted or

829
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 3: something bad might have. That's what he's saying. He's like,

830
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna worry about what could go wrong. I'm

831
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 3: gonna play free. That's what he's saying. And he played

832
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 3: really well through for over two hundred and twenty yards,

833
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 3: rushed for one hundred and fifty five yards and two touchdowns.

834
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 3: That was a really good performance by Arch. But that's

835
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 3: what he's saying. He's like, I'm not gonna put handcuffs

836
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,439
Speaker 3: on myself. I'm gonna play free. And you could see

837
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 3: it yesterday in that Bowl game.

838
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 4: If Arch decided to go out to the NFL, he'd

839
00:39:58,560 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 4: be a top five pick in this draft.

840
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: Absolutely he would.

841
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 4: And people have to come a gross with that because

842
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 4: Cisco Mendoza's going one. Dante mor is not declared. I

843
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,240
Speaker 4: hope he comes back. I mean I think he should,

844
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 4: but there's no guaranteed hes going to and Mendoza comes

845
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 4: out of the Jets draft to him like he I mean, Mendoza,

846
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 4: if Art comes out of the Jets, he's joined the

847
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 4: top five. He just he is, and he has all

848
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 4: the physical gifts. He started to slow this year, a

849
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,439
Speaker 4: lot of pressure on him, and he played much better

850
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 4: down the stretch, and he'll go into next season as

851
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 4: the Heisman favorite, as a favorite to go number one

852
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 4: overall again like he might have been this year if

853
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,439
Speaker 4: he actually came out, and he'll The improvement we saw

854
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 4: last year or this year was super impressive, and you

855
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 4: have to give credit to him for sticking with it.

856
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,280
Speaker 4: And I'm glad he said I saw that too, mouthing

857
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 4: that like that was good for him. I think he

858
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 4: needs the attitude.

859
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's the thing, man, is we care so impatient,

860
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 3: you know, like, oh yeah, give it time, give it

861
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 3: a little bit of time, you know. I hear all

862
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 3: these people talking about Shador Sanders and look at the

863
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,879
Speaker 3: advanced stats and it's like, give it a little bit

864
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 3: of time.

865
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: Like he's an NFL rookie, you know.

866
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 3: Like the same thing with arch and College where that

867
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 3: first started against Ohio State. They only scored seven points

868
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh my gosh, this guy's supposed to

869
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 3: be the second Cubig and he's.

870
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:16,920

Speaker 4: Correct.

875
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 3: It does takes a little bit of time. I'll tell

Speaker 3: you what time is on our side. When we look

877

Speaker 3: at these college football playoff games. We've got three of them.

878
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,879
