Well, just like that, another 9 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: college football season is a blur. As we are now 10 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 2: into December, and typically around this time it ends with 11 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,959 Speaker 2: a thud and it made for TV event. But this 12 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 2: time it's going to be a little different. It all 13 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 2: starts Sunday morning at nine a m. Pacific twelve noon Eastern, 14 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: when the first ever college football Playoff twelve team bracket 15 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: is picked for real, a month long tournamental start December twentieth. 16 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: And don't act like you're not here for it. I 17 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 2: know there's Teeth Nachigan complaining, and already it is the narrative. 18 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 2: Do we potentially have an under one of those quote unfair? 19 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 2: I say this in quotes unfair situations possibly playing out 20 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: in college football this weekend see last week, Alabama jumped 21 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: Miami and the CFP rankings, giving a three lost Tide 22 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: team the inside track to a playoff Berth and you 23 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 2: should hear the arguments that have been breaking out. I 24 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: guess what it really came down to is Alabama is 25 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: three to one against top twenty five teams, Miami is 26 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 2: zero in one. Bama is six to one against teams 27 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 2: over five hundred, Miami is four and two. Those are 28 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: the words of Commissioner Committee chair and also University of 29 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: Michigan ad Ward Manual. So if SMU beats Clemson in 30 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: the ACC Championship game Saturday, Alabama's going to be in 31 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: the playoff. If Clemson wins, then the committee will have 32 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 2: to decide between given the final at large spot to 33 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: SMU or Alabama. And here's the unfair, quote unquote unfair 34 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 2: situation that is brewing. Do you punish the SMU Mustangs 35 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: for losing a conference title game when Alabama didn't even 36 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 2: make it there? And I'm not mixed up. The SEC 37 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 2: is about a bazillion times better than the ACC. But 38 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: having said that, the SEC is going to get three 39 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: or four teams in and the ACEC might get one, well, 40 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 2: they might get two, but I don't want to get 41 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 2: ahead of myself. You see, if you've been reading the 42 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 2: proverbial tea leaves closely. The race for the college football 43 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: spot seemingly was somewhat subtled last week, and even though 44 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: the final bracket is coming on Sunday, because if you 45 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: just look at this again, Ward Manual, we see selection 46 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: committee chairman. He said on the Selection Show that the 47 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 2: committee will not reorder teams who aren't playing during this 48 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: weekend's conference title games, which basically means more than half 49 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: of the top twenty five is locked in. Cody said, 50 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: there's nothing that's going to change for us to evaluate 51 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 2: them any differently than we do now. So who's the 52 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: big winner in all this? Number eleven Alabama, which is 53 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: now in line for the final at large, not over 54 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: Number twelve Miami, who stunk it up the last three 55 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 2: weeks and they deserve it. Number thirteen Old Miss and 56 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 2: number fourteen South Carolina, who, by the way, had a 57 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 2: hell of a year. Look at their strength to schedule, 58 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: look at their strength of record. But the reasoning again 59 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: is simple, he said. The Crimson tie. They're three and 60 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 2: won against top twenty five competition. The Kinges are just 61 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 2: then one. Miami is angry. Of course, Bama also has 62 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 2: a head to head win over South Carolina and a 63 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: slightly better list of wins than Old Miss, even though 64 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: Old Miss and Lane Kiffin is mad too, but he's 65 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: always mad. Right now, I mean, okay, if the playoffs 66 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: started today, and they don't start today, Boise State handled 67 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 2: UNLV Friday night twenty one to seven, so seemingly they're 68 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 2: locked into the number four seed. They'll get a bye 69 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 2: right now. And you know we're going to talk about 70 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: this with Jared Smith coming up in about twelve minutes Oregon, 71 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 2: I expect him to beat Penn State. But let let's 72 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: tell you what. Let's just do this. If it's right now, 73 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 2: Oregon's won Texas is two, SMUs three and Boise's four. 74 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 2: Oregon would play the winner of Tennessee Ohio State. Boyse 75 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,799 Speaker 2: would play the winner of Arizona State Penn State. SMU 76 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: would play the winner of Bama Notre Dame in Texas 77 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: the winner of Indiana Georgia. But we've still got I 78 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: think some meaningful games Saturday. 79 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 3: Now. 80 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 2: You can't tell me that the you can't tell me 81 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 2: that the com fence championship games aren't somewhat diminished because 82 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 2: they are, but they're still meaningful. For instance, SMU Clemson 83 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 2: SMUs eleven and one Clemson's nine to three. The loser 84 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 2: of this game was once thought to be safely in 85 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 2: the playoff bracket due to the SEC having a bunch 86 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: of bubble teams or that that got their third loss 87 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 2: over the last two weeks. But when Miami lost to 88 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 2: Syracuse Saturday, that gave you know, Clemson an open back 89 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 2: door to Charlotte. It's not the case any longer. So 90 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: the selection committee will not consider a four loss team 91 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 2: for the bracket, which broaches the possibility of a three 92 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 2: loss SEC team getting one of the final at large bids. 93 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: Enter Alabama, The Canes forget it. They have no practical 94 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 2: path back into the bracket. Too bad, too sad would 95 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 2: want to be you did it to yourself, You escape 96 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: with a couple of weird wins earlier in the year 97 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 2: and finally caught up with you. And by the way, 98 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: Miami's definitely out, especially if Clemson ends up winning the 99 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 2: a SEC championship game. However, SMU could potentially be victimized 100 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 2: and left out of the committee views as second loss 101 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: to be too inferior to forgive, so that game has meaning. 102 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: How about Arizona State and Iowa State. This game will 103 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 2: likely determine the twelfth seed in the bracket, no matter 104 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: what happens elsewhere. There are, of course, some scenarios where 105 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve champ can reach its high as the 106 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 2: four seed. Nope, not anymore because Boise State won Friday night, 107 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 2: So I think the first round buy and the top 108 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 2: four seed is out for the Big Twelve unless it's 109 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 2: wells acc forget me. You know it's funny the SEC 110 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: talks about how great they are, and they are. You 111 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 2: have the first year team in their Texas likely can 112 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 2: win the championship, although I think Georgia gets some. Saturday 113 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: Oregon we hear about how great the Big Ten is 114 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 2: and they are. Oregon strolls in They're gonna win the 115 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: Big Ten their first year, and then SMU does the 116 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 2: same thing. In the SEC. They're all playing the championship games. 117 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 2: Just decide. Footnote. You gotta love Arizona State, man. They 118 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 2: seem to be playing with house money. They were picked 119 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 2: to finish last in the Big Twelve preseason media poll. 120 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: Now one win from a shot at a national championship. 121 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: That's something the Sun Devils haven't seen in twenty seven years. 122 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: Iowa stayed. On the other hand, they've taken full advantage 123 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 2: of the rest of the conference's top teams watching them 124 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 2: stumble at the finish line. They were left for dead 125 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: three weeks ago when they got beat by Kansas. So look, 126 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: these are two dangerous to hot teams. Arizona State's got 127 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: that running back scataboy. He looks like a rolling ball 128 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 2: of butcher knives. And they are really playing really good football. 129 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: Department of redne them see department. And and we'll get 130 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 2: to Texas, Georgia, we'll get to Oregon Penn State and 131 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: again give it up to Boise who took care and 132 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: you know on the backs of Heisman Trophy finalist Ashton genty. 133 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: He won't win it, but what a hell of a 134 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,119 Speaker 2: year he's had. And so I think that's that's pretty 135 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: well settled. So there you have it. I mean, look, 136 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 2: this is going to be a lot of fun Saturday. 137 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: There are a lot of betting angles. There are a 138 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 2: lot of betting things we'll talk about coming up before 139 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: we get to that. This just in Yeah, the Lions 140 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: really are scary good. Remember when they went thirty two 141 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 2: years without a playoff win. Well, I covered ten of 142 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: those teams from ninety eight to eight. Remember when the 143 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: Lions were one and one earlier in the year. There 144 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 2: were actually people that questioned the Lions after losing to 145 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: the Bucks. Where they've you know, maybe last year was 146 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: a flute. No, Lions are good. They're getting through the injuries. 147 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 2: Philadelphia is going to be a problem. Let's not look 148 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: too far down the road. They've won eleven straight, the 149 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: best start in franchise history. They beat Green Bay, a 150 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: very good Green Bay team, thirty four to thirty one 151 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: Thursday night, and they are the super Bowl favorite here 152 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 2: in Las Vegas. And I really think the Packers are good. 153 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 2: People will call that a good loss. No such thing 154 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 2: as a good loss. That's like a good kidney stone. 155 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 2: But that offense looked as good as any unent in 156 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: the league last night. Jordan Love made some sensational throws. 157 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 2: They didn't get go into the second half, but that 158 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: team's for real didn't matter. Jared Goff. The Lions, they persist. 159 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 2: They come at you like no other team. They've spent 160 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: the season alternating between winning close games and blowing teams out. 161 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 2: And I know Dan Campbell's decision to go for it 162 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: on fourth down late in the game was ballsy. He 163 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 2: ended up pulling it off. I know you got to 164 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: be a little nervous because there's a thing called risk reward. 165 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 2: And we'll see, we'll see when the playoffs start. But 166 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 2: let's face it, the Lions are good. Okay. The college 167 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: football championship games they checked at the conference championship games. Yes, 168 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: they've been diminished a little bit, but not that much 169 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 2: because there's plenty of betting action to talk about.

I was really looking 195 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: forward to having you tonight. Because although some of the 196 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 2: luster has been diminished from the championship weekend as it were, 197 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: regarding conferences, there's still a lot of good betting information 198 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 2: and a lot of opportunities for folks. So let's move 199 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: through these games. I want to start out with one 200 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: Iowa State at Arizona State. Interesting matchup, The number I'm 201 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: seeing is ASU minus two total fifty nine and a half. 202 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 2: Is that job with what you've got? 203 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, it looks like they've kind of been caught in 204 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,479 Speaker 5: no man's land. I haven't really seen this get to three, 205 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 5: and I don't think it's going to on the Arizona 206 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 5: State side now. Just Arizona's state being in this game, 207 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 5: Bernie is a minor miracle. 208 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. 209 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 5: They were picked sixteenth in the Big Twelve. Yes, I 210 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 5: mean I didn't even you know there was a time. 211 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 5: I was right. I'm old enough to know a time 212 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 5: when there wasn't sixteen teams in the Big Twelve, but 213 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 5: one hundred to one preseason odds to win the conference. 214 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 5: The preseason total was four and a half, and that's 215 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 5: the lowest preseason total of any team playing on championship weekend, 216 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 5: ten to two against the number this year. Obviously, the 217 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 5: market was just ribly wrong on this team. The only time, 218 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 5: other than a game against randomly Texas State, the only 219 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 5: other time they were a dog was against Iowa in 220 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 5: the Syhawk game. So mar excuse me, that's Iowa State. 221 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 5: So you look at this game, and I think the 222 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 5: injury to Tyson matters a lot, and is Iowa was 223 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 5: staking to be able to stop the run something that 224 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 5: they haven't done this year. Like if these teams played 225 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 5: in the preseason, the number would be about two touchdowns different. 226 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 5: So Arizona States increased dramatically. You're buying the peak of 227 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 5: the market with them, and with Arizona State other than Skataboo. 228 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 5: Their best player is injured Jordan Tyson, the receiver. So 229 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 5: how Iowas State plays that? Are they going to stack 230 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: the box? That's not the kind of defense they like 231 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 5: to play. They play more over three three five with 232 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 5: Hecock the defensive coordinator. So are they going to come 233 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 5: out of that at all and really shut down Skataboo. 234 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 5: If they do, I think they've got a chance to win. 235 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 5: This game feels like a lower scoring game, feels like 236 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 5: an undergame. The Big twelve has been pretty wild this year. 237 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 5: I wouldn't be shocked if this one was back and forth. 238 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 5: But Arizona State being here as a minor miracle. So 239 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 5: we'll see how much house money they play with. 240 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: Well, you brought up a good point. First of all, 241 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 2: Arizona State runs for about one hundred and ninety five 242 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 2: yards a game in Iowa gives up about one hundred 243 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 2: and seventy five. And the irony is Iowa has a 244 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 2: good pass defense, but Arizona State not really much of 245 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: a passing team. You look for string versus weakness. It 246 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: feels like Arizona State's going to dominate the trenches and 247 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 2: it feels like two's a nice cozy number. I would 248 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 2: be surprised if Arizona State doesn't run all over Iowa. 249 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: Am I wrong? 250 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 5: Well? Yeah, I think it's just like, how does I 251 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 5: because the weakness is obvious here, Like Iowa State is 252 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 5: really bad against the run outside the top ninety and 253 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:42,599 Speaker 5: a lot of the metrics that I look at, but 254 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 5: they play a style like you have to look at 255 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,439 Speaker 5: those metrics kind of you know, with the with the 256 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 5: with a grain, with a you know, a slanted you 257 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 5: know view, because they play a style of defense that 258 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 5: is susceptible to the run. They want to funnel you 259 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 5: into the past. Like that's why you play basically nickel 260 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 5: in your base. You know, you play a three three five, 261 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 5: you only have three down line and it's just really 262 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 5: tough to stop the run and I don't. And I 263 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 5: was a couple people asking me to say Oh, well, 264 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 5: you know you can just put in some more heavier packages. 265 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 5: That's hard to do. You've played the same style of 266 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 5: defense for fourteen weeks. Now, in the fifteenth week of 267 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 5: the regular season or you know, the conference championship weekend, 268 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 5: you're just gonna go to a new defense that you 269 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 5: might not have the personnel or the success with. So 270 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 5: it's a tough ask. I think Arizona State mentally is 271 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 5: the tougher team. I think Kenny Dillingham is the better coach. 272 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 5: I think Sam Levitz had a really good season, but 273 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 5: they are limited in this game without their best receiver, 274 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 5: like without Jordan Tyson, who has a thirty eight percent 275 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 5: target share. They their their next leading receivers like the 276 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 5: Scataboo and a tight end like they just they don't 277 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 5: have a lot of depth behind him. So how Arizona 278 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 5: State handles that. And on the Arizona State defensive side, 279 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 5: I would say they're playing above their talent. The sum 280 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 5: is greater than the parts. Like they don't have a 281 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 5: lot of guys that flash on tape. Their pass rush 282 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 5: grades outside the top, so they're not going to get 283 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 5: after the quarterback. They've played some mobile quarterbacks this year, 284 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 5: and struggled Kansas UCFK State. Those are the games they 285 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 5: struggled in. This feels like a game that if if 286 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 5: Iowa State stops the run, I think they win the 287 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 5: football game. 288 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 2: And interestingly enough, you know, spot on Arizona State. They 289 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: were voted to finish last in the conference. Somehow they 290 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: finished the season winning five straight games and looking fairly impressive. 291 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: To me, Iowa State, We're living in weird times. They 292 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: lose two games in November and yet they can still 293 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: find themselves in the playoffs if they win Saturday. All right, 294 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 2: Georgia Texas is going to be like a super Bowl 295 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 2: of sorts. Texas lay in two and a half. But 296 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 2: this feels like a home game for Georgia, that Georgia 297 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 2: Dome where they I'll tell you you just take it 298 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 2: from there. I feel like Texas might be walking into 299 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: a bus saw. 300 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 6: Yeah. 301 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 5: I mean, Texas will have people fired up for this game. 302 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 5: It's their first year in the SEC and they're they're 303 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 5: in the SC Championship game and they lost this game, 304 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 5: you know, back in October. I think when you watch 305 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 5: that tape, I think the thing two things really stood out. 306 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 5: A Georgia's defense was unbelievable in that game, and there's 307 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 5: some reasons why, and I'll get them a minute, But 308 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 5: the second thing that stood out was there's seven turnovers 309 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 5: in that game like that. That is in a game 310 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 5: with the talent level on offense that these two teams have, 311 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 5: especially Texas, who is you know, run by an lead 312 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 5: offensive mine, they actually play a very conservative offensive system. 313 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 5: They for the most part, keep everything close to the 314 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 5: line of scrimmage. Quin Youwers is like sixty percent of 315 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 5: his passes this year within ten yards of the line 316 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 5: of scrimmage. They run a lot of screens and draws, 317 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 5: so they don't have like a high risk offense. They 318 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 5: fumbled the three times in that game, so I just 319 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 5: I think you're gonna see more offensive continuity from both teams. 320 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 5: It was a low scoring game. The total was fifty seven. 321 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 5: Back in mid October, it was thirty to fifteen finals 322 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 5: the only time all year Georgia was a dog. I 323 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 5: think when you look at what Texas is offensively right now, 324 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 5: they're obviously trying to protect quinn Ewers. They're gonna try 325 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 5: to get the run game going. Georgia was able to 326 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 5: do a really good job in the last game because 327 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,360 Speaker 5: they completely threw a curve ball. Defensively, what they did 328 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 5: is they went to a bear front. And your audience, 329 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 5: what's a bearfront if you don't know, it's the front 330 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 5: that the eighty five Bears made famous. It's basically five 331 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 5: defensive linemen. You're playing hat on a hat on the 332 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 5: offensive line. But what Kirby Smart did that was so 333 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 5: unique in that game. Instead of having like a linebacker 334 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 5: play that fifth defensive lineman spot, he put his nickel 335 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 5: corner in there because it allowed in flexibility to shut 336 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 5: down that screen game, the short passing game, and to 337 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 5: blitz off the edge and get some speed. And it 338 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 5: worked because they held Texas one hundred yards rushing. It 339 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 5: was one of their worst games of the entire season offensively. 340 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 5: So now sarcas that on tape, how does he adjust 341 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 5: off of that? And that's the cat and mouse game. 342 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 5: The other part here is I don't know how much 343 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 5: juicer is going to be in this game. Honestly, Bernie, 344 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 5: both teams are in the playoff. I would not be 345 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 5: shocked if this game is a little more free flowing. 346 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 5: It feels more like a alamobol than an SEC championship 347 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 5: game because both teams are going to be in the 348 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 5: playoff regardless of what happens. Obviously, seeding matters, and you 349 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 5: want that buy. But I don't know how much juice 350 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 5: and intensity there's going to be on the defensive side 351 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 5: of this game. We'll see, We'll see what the early 352 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 5: vibe is. 353 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 2: Well. And you wonder how much gas in the tank 354 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 2: did Georgia expend last week or racing a seventeen point 355 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 2: deficit against Georgia Tech and then having to go eight 356 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 2: overtimes to win the game. But this is another weird 357 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 2: matchup because which Carson Becket is going to show up? 358 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 2: I mean, when you throw three picks and you don't 359 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 2: throw a touchdown against Texas and you still manage to win, 360 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: your defensive line gets the credit. I think that's the 361 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 2: way it happened. But I gotta tell you, quinn Ewers 362 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 2: was benched that day for arch Manning, So I think 363 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: this is a fistfight in a phone booth. You may 364 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 2: well be right, but I'm guessing they might want to 365 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: buy more than we realize. But how much gas do 366 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 2: you really have in the tank when you get to 367 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 2: this point in the season. 368 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 5: It's a very valid point now Georgia has the extra 369 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 5: day they played Friday, so factor that in. I think 370 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 5: statistically this is Kirby's worst defense. It probably his entire 371 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 5: time at Georgia. I think the first year was pretty rough, 372 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 5: but elout Tech and Haynes King, you just do whatever 373 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 5: they wanted. Their defensive success right this year is outside 374 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 5: the top thirty, but the tough their talents in the 375 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 5: top ten. So there's a big gap in how much 376 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 5: success teams are having offensively and what they have on 377 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 5: the field. They have played a very difficult schedule, but 378 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 5: when you consider the talents a unit that's in the 379 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 5: upper echelon, they have not met expectations. And I'll be honest. 380 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 5: Another thing that kind of is a red flag. Julian Humphrey, 381 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 5: who's like a starter, went in a transfer portal this 382 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 5: week like they're about to play in the college with 383 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 5: a playoff and they have a starting level corner. Now, 384 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 5: I know Georgia's got a million of these guys, and 385 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 5: I'm sure he probably wasn't getting enough playing time and 386 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 5: he probably got a better deal somewhere else. And let's 387 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 5: be honest, that's what this is today. This is money, 388 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 5: this is deals, this is contracts that they are negotiating 389 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 5: with the teams and the players. It's not, you know, 390 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 5: playing time really that drives it as much. But to 391 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 5: have a guy hit the portal the week of the 392 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 5: SEC title game before your collegetable playoff game, I think 393 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 5: that's a little bit of a red flag. 394 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 2: No, it certainly is. Uh yeah, I don't know if 395 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 2: you fired on the on on the game. I know 396 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 2: urban Meyer has a real strong opinion. 397 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 5: Oh well, then if I want his opinion, please, what 398 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 5: is it on the game? 399 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 2: Well, he's been in a game. He's been in that 400 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 2: game in that dome. And while he respects Texas and 401 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 2: their DNA and their history, he doesn't think they've seen 402 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 2: anything quite like this. So he doesn't He thinks if 403 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: they don't get out to an early lead, George is 404 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 2: gonna George is gonna take this games fair. 405 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 5: I mean, you look at Texas schedule. I have not 406 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 5: been blown away. I think there's a case to be 407 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 5: no to they No. And then they got the easiest 408 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 5: of all the like they got they got the anti Oklahoma. 409 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 5: Oklahoma got the tough SEC or early schedule in their 410 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 5: first season. Texas got the easy one. And there's a 411 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 5: case to be made that if Penn State looks impressive 412 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 5: tomorrow night and and Texas win, it's closed. There's a 413 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 5: case to be made to put Penn State in the 414 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 5: number one seed because they valued the Big Ten all year. 415 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 5: They've had four teams in the top five and the 416 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 5: Big ten all year up until recently, obviously with Ohio 417 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 5: State losing. But I don't know how good Texas is. 418 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 5: It is a very fair quite now. We will find 419 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 5: out a lot tomorrow night. But they have failed their one. 420 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: Test so far this year. 421 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 5: They're one real test. 422 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 2: And the one thing I will watch, honestly is will 423 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 2: Texas be able to run the ball? That's gonna matter, 424 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 2: I believe to open up passing lanes. You mentioned this 425 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 2: a minute ago. Georgia's pass rush got home, and I 426 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: don't know why wouldn't Saturday. So let's just save that 427 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 2: for Saturday. We'll see what happens. I'm glad you brought 428 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 2: up Penn State. Oregon has, you know, the lone undefeated 429 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: team in the country, and you know, I know their 430 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: question has been called somewhat into schedule a question. But 431 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: here's the deal. They've answered every test and they do 432 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 2: so many things. Well, what's surprised me. I believe this 433 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 2: sendoff line was four. How much professional money came raging 434 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: in on Penn State given James Franklin's extremely dubious one 435 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: in sixteen record against top five teams. What are your 436 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 2: thoughts on this game from a purely a handicapping standpoint. 437 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the Franklin impact matters early and if 438 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 5: it doesn't, like if they come out firing, it's not 439 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 5: a factor in the game, I don't think. I think 440 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 5: it's more of the offensive script and the game plan 441 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 5: and are they in the game. If they're in the game, 442 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 5: they're in the game. If Oregon comes out with Tess 443 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 5: Johnson and this explosive offense and goes up fourteen to 444 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 5: nothing and Penn State can't run it and it's thirty 445 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 5: eight and thirty nine at every drive, you're gonna know 446 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 5: by halftime, and there's a chance that that is the path. 447 00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 5: The path for Penn State is Nicholas Singleton and all 448 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 5: of a sudden being able to get into third and 449 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 5: shorts third and manageables where all of a sudden, Andy 450 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 5: coultiel Nicki scheme and making Tyler Warren this football tight 451 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 5: end unicorn, the next coming of Jim Thorpe. Yes, all 452 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 5: of a sudden becomes a factor. The problem is if 453 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 5: it's just Drew Aller on third and eight trying to 454 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 5: find Tyler Warren over the middle, it's not going to 455 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 5: be consistent. It has to be Nicholas Singleton early. It 456 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 5: has to be explosive. They have to do better on 457 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 5: early downs and run the ball. Oregon could be had 458 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 5: defensively running the ball, like their run game defense with Lanning, 459 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 5: who has made some tweaks. They've been banged up a 460 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 5: little bit this year. Birch has been up and down, 461 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 5: but they're outside the top forty in rushing success. Right, 462 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 5: they can be run on down to down. It's the 463 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 5: question of compenstate execute. I think Aller's actually had a 464 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 5: really good year. 465 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 2: He's not there statistically because he never takes any chances. 466 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 5: But you know what, that's what they've asked him to do. 467 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 5: They haven't asked him there. And to be fair, and 468 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 5: also to be fair, he doesn't have a whole lot 469 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 5: to throw to a lot of questions. 470 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 2: He brought up Tyler Warren and then he listened. He's key, 471 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 2: and interestingly enough, that did these two teams have a 472 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 2: common opponent, Ohio State. They both got him at home. 473 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 2: Oregon beat him, and then Penn State didn't beat him. 474 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 2: But explain to me, with the new high falutin offensive 475 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: coordinator that Penn State brought in, and they've got the 476 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 2: ball first and goal from the four, Tyler Warren doesn't 477 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 2: touch the ball once and that might have beaten Ohio 478 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 2: State had they given him the ball in space and 479 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: given him a couple of chances to make a play. 480 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 2: Why do they not even dial up his number. 481 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 5: I don't remember that sequence specifically, but probably towards the. 482 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: End of the game. It's towards the end of the game. 483 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 5: I think, if you want what's wrong with Penn State's offense, 484 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 5: they don't have any game breaking receivers and then so 485 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 5: they don't have anyone who can bail them out. So 486 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 5: it has to be on schedule, like if it's manageable 487 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 5: on third downs, because aler like the O line is 488 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 5: not elite, it's solid, it's not elite. I think it's 489 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 5: about a singleton healthy and can they get some pop 490 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 5: early in the run game. Oregon's done a good job 491 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 5: creating pressure. They're top ten in the country. Creating pressure 492 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 5: without having the blitz. So if if Birch is back 493 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 5: and they're getting pressure with the front four aler as 494 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 5: we said, has protected the football well, no turnover worthy plays, 495 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 5: but the yards per temp drops off a cliff, so 496 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 5: when it's an obvious passing down, it's just checked down, Charlie. 497 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 5: And if the pressure gets home, they can't push the 498 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 5: ball down the field. And even if they can, they 499 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 5: don't have any game breaking receivers who can create separation 500 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 5: because Oregon again doesn't have the blitz to create pressure. 501 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 5: They can keep six seven guys back in the secondary. 502 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 5: It's just it's a they're really they're really well coached 503 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 5: team and they haven't been there before either though. And 504 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 5: I think that you go watch the first half of 505 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 5: the Pack twelve title game last year against Washington, were 506 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 5: defecated down their leg with Bonnick, I think there's that. 507 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 5: That's why the Franklin coaching top game game element isn't 508 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 5: as big of a factor here because they're not playing 509 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 5: Ohio State and they're not well. 510 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 2: You know, Oregon played the proverbial Big Ten schedule. They 511 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 2: went into Wisconsin, won a tough game, They win into Michigan, 512 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 2: toyed with them. They beat Ohio State, they have a 513 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 2: top five rushing attack, they have a top five passing 514 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 2: attack in Big Ten games, held opponents to sixteen points 515 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 2: a game. My question to you is, is this number right? 516 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 2: Three and a half? Could Penn State hang this number? 517 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 5: It's not right? Now that it's getting closer to three, Wow, 518 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 5: you're wow, it's a flat three at South Point, Holy 519 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 5: ra If you're back then to drag and drive over 520 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 5: to now, I wouldn't believe. I believe it closed now, 521 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,719 Speaker 5: but it's you can lay three flat minus one. Then 522 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 5: we're getting to a point where I think you're going 523 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 5: to get some money that's gonna step in on Oregon 524 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 5: at some point. 525 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,239 Speaker 2: Would it surprise you on a scale of one to ten, 526 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: how much wh would it surprise you if it was 527 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 2: a field goal Oregon way in or be Penn State 528 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: beat him. 529 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 5: I mean, what you're doing is you're giving me a 530 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 5: heart attack twenty four hours before I'm actually going to 531 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 5: have one tomorrow. 532 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: But Jimmy Cephalo's not walking through that door, buddy. I'm sing, no, no, 533 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 2: he's not. 534 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 5: And I actually have a I'll be at a poker 535 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 5: tournament tomorrow so I'll probably be gambling while I'm you know, sweating, 536 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 5: But I think I honestly think, based on what we've 537 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 5: seen in college football this year, it would not surprise 538 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 5: me fair enough. I just think there's been so many 539 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 5: ridiculous upsets. Nothing Oregon has done has made me feel 540 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 5: like they are a stone cold assassin in this game. 541 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 5: And nothing has happened in college football this year like 542 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 5: there's been. I would say a million things in the 543 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 5: last two months that have happened more surprising than an 544 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 5: eleven and one team beating a twelve and oh team. 545 00:27:55,760 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 2: A very interesting matchup Clemson SMU Saturday. I think Clemson 546 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 2: should be sending bundles of flowers to Syracuse because when 547 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 2: they beat Miami, that opened the door for Clemson to 548 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: punch your ticket. I like this SMU team. I don't 549 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 2: know how the experience of dabbleswiney in coaching so many 550 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 2: of these big games, and how he might have a 551 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 2: squad ready. And I know that Dabbos Swinny had a 552 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 2: much tougher non conference schedule than SMU did. But be 553 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 2: that as it may, you get these two teams on 554 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 2: the field. I do believe SMU is a very good 555 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 2: football team. Okay, they had second best scoring offense in 556 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 2: the e CEC and their defense is no slouch either. 557 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 2: I know the quote the proverbia week schedule, So Clemson 558 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 2: catching two and a half here? Break down this game 559 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 2: from your angle. 560 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, this is a good spot I think for kind 561 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 5: of just analyzing this game from a like, Wow, Clemson's 562 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 5: been there so much and we haven't seen it from SMU. 563 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 5: But SMU is the better team here, Like, it is 564 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 5: an intriguing handicap from the perspective of you know, SMU, 565 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 5: I think is more talented, and I think that frankly 566 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 5: a better coach. But Clemson has the experience of this 567 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 5: game and it's basically a home game for them in Charlotte. 568 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 5: So I wouldn't be shocked if the nerves and the 569 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 5: tightness of SMU is a factor. They are on the 570 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 5: doorstep of winning, of making a collegeable playoff. I don't 571 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 5: like any negativity around SMU, like fans or people saying 572 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 5: that this is a punishment. This game is not a 573 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 5: punishment for SMU. This is an opportunity the options for SMU. 574 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 5: Let's say they and I heard RHT lastly, the head 575 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 5: coach day this week, Oh what if we all just 576 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 5: got COVID and we didn't play like he was obviously 577 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 5: saying it tongue in cheek, of course, but let's let's 578 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 5: map that out, and let's say SMU was like Notre Dame, 579 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 5: sitting around doing nothing this weekend, and because of where 580 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 5: they're seated, they're in the ACC. They're not going to 581 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 5: get a home game in the first round. They would 582 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 5: have had to go to Columbus or South Bend or 583 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 5: Happy Valley and be touchdown dog and play at a 584 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:06,959 Speaker 5: Big ten outdoor weather game. Or you win this week 585 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 5: on a neutral when you're favored, then you get three 586 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 5: weeks off and you get to go to the quarterfinals, 587 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 5: and then you get to play on another neutral instead 588 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 5: of having to go on the road for your first 589 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 5: college torole playoff game. Like to me, this is the 590 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 5: easier path for SMU to make a quarterfinal, which is 591 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 5: obviously the goal to get as far as you can. 592 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 5: They have the team that can do it. I think 593 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 5: Jennings is a legit quarterback. He doesn't do one thing 594 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 5: specifically well. He is very efficient, he doesn't turn it 595 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 5: over much. They've got a couple of dudes in the backfield, 596 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 5: I think who can at least carry the mail. The 597 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 5: on line doesn't overwhelm you. I think Clemson's defense that's 598 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 5: where this team is very different in years past, Like 599 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 5: this is not the Clemson defense that made the National 600 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 5: Tier run. Obviously, it's not Trevor Lawrence Sshawn Watson a quarterback, 601 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 5: but I think Kate club Nick still has He probably 602 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 5: is the best player in the field in this game, 603 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 5: but he doesn't have a whole lot of round him. 604 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 5: Mafas banged up. The running game is kind of hampered lately. 605 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 5: I think that I think smused the better team, but 606 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 5: I don't know how much the nerves and the road 607 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 5: environment it affected Boise. He didn't affected NLB A. 608 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 2: Boy, There's there's no question it did and a year 609 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 2: I think he's a playground quarterback. But that's a that's 610 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 2: a conversation for a different day you bring up. 611 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 5: But that road environment and the cold it impacted ULB tonight. 612 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 5: How much will the if there will be any weather 613 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 5: tomorrow in Charlotte, how much will the road environment impact sme. 614 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 5: They've been good on the road this year, but if 615 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 5: they can overcome the jitters and the nerves. I think 616 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 5: they have the better football team. 617 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: I have one last question, but just a quick statement. Look, 618 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 2: this is you look for, you know, matchups, strength versus drink. 619 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 2: Clemson's got the best rushing attack, but SMU's got the 620 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 2: top rushing defense. So this would be a good chess 621 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 2: match kid club that can't afford to turn the ball over. Okay, 622 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: and and SMU's pass defense isn't great. The last question 623 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 2: I have the they won't the committee will not consider 624 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 2: a four lost team. So if Clemson loses, forget it. 625 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 2: But if SMU loses, do they find their way into 626 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 2: the bracket. 627 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 5: I don't think so. 628 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 2: Okay, I appreciate it. 629 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 5: I think it's a really I think they I think like, 630 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 5: if you were the committee, would you put s m 631 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 5: U in that game against Notre Dame in the first 632 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 5: round or Obama? I think. 633 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 2: You you lay that out perfectly, Yeah, Bama without even 634 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 2: thinking twice. 635 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 5: And I think it's Bama. I think Bama's in No 636 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 5: matter what. 637 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 2: Jared, I know you got to get up early.

If you want to 668 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 2: opine on something else, you may have seen Trevor Lawrence 669 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 2: getting last week. I'll share gets a three game suspension. 670 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 2: He's got a body of work. He can make all 671 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 2: the great statements he wants. By the way, I've seen worse. 672 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 2: But look, here's the situation. The NFL has a right 673 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 2: to control the circumstances of competition when it comes to 674 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 2: integrity and player safety. But what's interesting is how far 675 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 2: do you go are are quarterbacks to protected? A Hall 676 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 2: of Famer Tom Brady had some thoughts about this. Let's 677 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 2: give it a listen. 678 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 7: And at the same time, when you run, you put 679 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 7: yourself in a lot of danger. And when you do that, 680 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 7: I don't think the onus of protecting an offensive quarterback 681 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 7: who's running should be on a defensive player. You know, 682 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 7: maybe they find or penalize a quarterback for sliding late, 683 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 7: you know, and say, look, if we don't want these 684 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 7: hits to take place, we've got to penalize the offense 685 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 7: and the defense. 686 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 2: Here's the problem, Tom, I love you, look a fat kid, 687 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 2: love cake. You're not go to penalize a quarterback for 688 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 2: sliding and giving himself up. All right? If you don't 689 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 2: want these things to happen, players getting suspended, conversations to 690 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 2: break out, don't sue the NFL for a billion dollars. 691 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 2: This whole concussion thing started. The NFL was sued for 692 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 2: a billion dollars, so they're putting in all kinds of protections. 693 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 2: This is a heated argument. There's cases to be made 694 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 2: on both sides. Was Alshier wrong for what he did? 695 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 2: Did he want the three game suspension for spiriting Trevor Lawrence? 696 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 2: Or has the NFL gone too far? Does Tom Brady 697 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 2: have a point our quarterbacks to protected? Do you agree again? 698 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 2: I'll stand on what I said. The NFL has the 699 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: right to control the circumstances of their competition, their game, 700 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 2: their integrity, their player safety. You know what to do 701 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 2: with his topic. Should you want to weigh in on it. 702 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 2: There's an old saying, be gracious in defeat and humble 703 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 2: in victory. Well, Michigan wasn't last week, were they? And 704 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 2: by the way, it wasn't just Michigan. It happened in 705 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 2: North Carolina as well. It happened in Florida. And in 706 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 2: case you missed it, when Texas went to Michigan in September, 707 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 2: they planted their flag. What's up with this flag planning thing? 708 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 2: I mean, true greatness needs no self promotion. I spent 709 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,720 Speaker 2: a lot of time around University of Michigan for seventeen years. 710 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: I didn't go there, my mom did. And it's an 711 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 2: institution that's very proud, very prideful. Some think arrogant. It's 712 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 2: an international institution. This is, frankly the envy of a 713 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 2: lot of schools and people. There's a school over in 714 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,839 Speaker 2: East Lants and they hate them. They just throw rocks 715 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 2: at them because they just they want to beat them. 716 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 2: To tell you the truth, sorry, that's the way it is. 717 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: The bottom line is this though you went in whipped 718 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 2: Ohio States, but you shocked the college football world is 719 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 2: twenty point underdogs. Do you diminish what you did by 720 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 2: the flag planning? What do you think of flag planning 721 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 2: in general? Is it good? Is it bad? 722 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 3: You like it? Yes? Or no? 723 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 2: Is it over the top? I know Doug Gottlieb said, hey, 724 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 2: too bad. You don't want us to plan our flag 725 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 2: beat us? That's fair, But do you really need to 726 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 2: do that? You know one of the greatest running backs 727 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 2: of all time, Barry Sanders, the guy knew a little 728 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 2: bit in Detroit. He'd hand the ball to the ref. 729 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 2: Or guys like to spike the football. That's spiking the 730 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 2: football of the highest degree, and then you know a 731 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 2: whole melee. Wasn't really that big of a melee, but 732 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 2: it broke out and both schools got fined, and I'm 733 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 2: sure there'll be some sort of legislation against this next year. 734 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 2: So do you like flag planning? He's a good bad? Yes? 735 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 3: No? 736 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 2: Over the top? Or should you win with dignity? The 737 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 2: third one? Okay, here we go the goal that at bat? 738 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 2: Is this another WTF exclamation point? Is this just another 739 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 2: Rob Manford gimmick? Or is just a great idea? Okay? Manford? 740 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 2: He hit he scored big with the pitch clock. I 741 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 2: don't know about ghost runners. Don't really like it that much, 742 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 2: but a lot of people do. Robowomps are coming. Who 743 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 2: knows what's next, but Commissioner said that the gold in 744 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 2: at bat was discussed at the owners meetings this past 745 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 2: fall and it's in the conversation stage only right now, 746 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,320 Speaker 2: but reportedly they want to test it in the minor leagues. 747 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 2: Now the exact mechanics haven't been determined yet. You'd likely 748 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 2: see it used in later innings when the team needs 749 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: a run. Maybe you got a poor hitter at the plate. 750 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 2: We keep here in the show heo Tani angle and 751 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 2: then laugh clown laugh. What if? What if? What if 752 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 2: the ninth hitter is up and you need to run, 753 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 2: and hey, let's bat Otani. Then he hits a double. 754 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 2: Now he's on second base, but you want him to 755 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 2: bat again for you know, for himself as a ghost 756 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 2: runner or I check that you've already used him. Now 757 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 2: is the golden and bat? Now now it's his turn? 758 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 2: What do you do? Okay haha? Laugh clown laugh? Right, 759 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 2: could this happen? Never say never? But it's hard to 760 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 2: imagine a league, in a sport that's so steeped in 761 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 2: tradition making a change this drastic. I feel like it's 762 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 2: a gimmick. That's where eyeway and out at enough's enough. 763 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 2: So we've got spearing quarterbacks. Your thoughts on that, We've 764 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 2: got flag planting good or bad? Yes or no? When 765 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 2: with dignity or what? And how about this crazy golden 766 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 2: at bat and baseball it's being talked about? Or we've 767 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 2: got the rant.

Jim in Massachusetts starts it off. Then 788 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 2: we missed you last week, Jim. 789 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 8: Yeah, I was on vacation, Burnon. 790 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 3: I'm sorry I couldn't. 791 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 8: Help carry the show for you, but I'm on vacation anyway. Hey, 792 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 8: the thing with the guy hitting Lawrence, Uh, three games 793 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 8: is good. Yeah, three games is good. I hope it 794 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 8: starts all that stuff. But that guy's had a history of. 795 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 3: Doing stuff like that. 796 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 2: It's got a buddy of work. Yes, you know. 797 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 8: So that's why I'm glad that happened, you know. And 798 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 8: the other thing, like Brady saying that they wouldn't let him, 799 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 8: they should let him play more or whatever. I mean, 800 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 8: that's rich coming from him, from him, because I'm here 801 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 8: in Massachusetts and I followed I'm not a faith this man, 802 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,919 Speaker 8: but I followed them a lot. And I remember when 803 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 8: Prell's Thugs played for the Ravens. He used to run 804 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 8: to the ref all the time about that guy. You know, 805 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 8: he was scared to death about that guy. So it 806 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 8: was kind of like, yeah, you know, check your closet 807 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,399 Speaker 8: before you come out and start say not you're not wrong. 808 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 2: Those comments didn't land well, you're right, Jim. In a 809 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 2: lot of circles, they did not. 810 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 9: You know. 811 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 8: I mean for a guy being six to four and 812 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:13,959 Speaker 8: all of him, you know, you've got to be tough 813 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 8: to play in that league. And he always had that 814 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 8: kind of like pretty boy, you know type of thing. 815 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 3: But hey, get him his due. 816 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 8: You know, he got where he got, but he thugs 817 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 8: was in his head though, throw out thugs. He was 818 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 8: in his head. 819 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 3: So that's rich for him saying that. 820 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 8: And the thing about this flag plant and all this 821 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 8: other stuff they ort to suspend all those kids, find 822 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 8: all those schools because the only reason that's happening is 823 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 8: because of the way the computer system and Instagram and 824 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 8: all that stuff TikTok on the phones now that you 825 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 8: can post all that stuff, and they all want to 826 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 8: do that stuff instead of you know, playing hot on 827 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 8: the field, letting bygones be bygones. You know, So I'm 828 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 8: all for that, you know, whether they get to that 829 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 8: level or not, but they should do that. They should 830 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 8: find him and find the schools and suspend the players. 831 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 2: Well, the schools did get fined. There were no suspension, 832 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 2: but the schools did get fine. I just feel like 833 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 2: it diminishes your victory a little bit. You don't need to, dude, 834 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 2: if you got it done on the field. Anything beyond that, 835 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 2: to me starts to take away. But that's just me 836 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,959 Speaker 2: any quickly. It didn't quickly on the Golden. 837 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 3: Bat Oh scratch that, Bernie. I mean, that's just so stupid. 838 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 8: And you know what we're getting in the playoffs for football, 839 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 8: you know, to get baseball till April. 840 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: Jim, appreciate you, man, see you next week and for 841 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 2: a s fourth. I don't think the Golden and Battle 842 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,279 Speaker 2: ever see the latter day, but they're talking about it, 843 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 2: so you're never going to know. Junior in Indianapolis, Welcome 844 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,839 Speaker 2: into the Bernie Frattle Show. Thanks for checking in. Hey, 845 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 2: how you doing, Bernie, Well, thank you. 846 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 10: I guess it's the flag planning. I think that the 847 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 10: kids don't have a rich tradition as they used to 848 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,280 Speaker 10: back in the day, so I feel like it doesn't 849 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 10: cause the same Wait, as it would, especially with portal 850 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,399 Speaker 10: going on and stuff like that. You guys won't even 851 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 10: be here next to next season, So what doesn't. 852 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 3: It really mean? 853 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, You're not wrong. 854 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 10: And so then, uh, with seven on seven football, that's 855 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 10: what I kind of NFL now, it's so soft that, 856 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 10: I mean, we really just got to let it go. 857 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 10: Like you, we have no old school warrior football like 858 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 10: that anymore. So that type of stuff is not should 859 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 10: not be allowed in football. And it said that, Uh, 860 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,720 Speaker 10: he's still trying to initiate that, even though I would 861 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 10: like to see more hitting on the quarterback because that 862 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 10: kind of makes them. 863 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 11: Have to have that ghost that that clock in their head. 864 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 10: And they don't really they in the pocket fur five 865 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 10: seconds now. And then with the golden back. I think 866 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 10: that's cool me personally, because you can't viewership. 867 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 2: Okay, No, I appreciate I appreciate it. No, I appreciate that, junior. 868 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 2: If thanks for checking in. I've always said the most 869 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 2: boring conversations and when everybody agrees, listen, you know, seventy 870 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 2: nine million people attended baseball games this last year. Uh, 871 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: and if it puts butts in seats or gets people 872 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 2: talking about it. Look, as long as you don't mess 873 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 2: with ninety feet between the bases and sixty feet six inches, 874 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 2: and trust me, everything else is game right from aster 875 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 2: turf to don stadiums to inter league play to the 876 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 2: DH everything, the pitch clock, the runner at second base, 877 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 2: Robo ams, what the hell? Andrew? And Bigger? Sure, what's up, buddy? 878 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 12: Hey, how's it going? 879 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 2: Doing well? 880 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 12: All right? So the flag planting situation, how about if 881 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 12: the team is at home and they win, they can 882 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 12: plant the flag in their own field. You know, you 883 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 12: can't plant the flag in someone else's home field and 884 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 12: expect nothing to happen. Okay, and then then a ramp 885 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 12: go ahead, Okay, I've been saving this one the Yankee, 886 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:06,240 Speaker 12: He's okay. Aaron Boone, you've lost your soul, your heart 887 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 12: to data. And why do you have Aaron Judge in centerfield? 888 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,320 Speaker 12: He was an amazing right fielder. And then you changed 889 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,720 Speaker 12: up the batting order in the World Series. You moved 890 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 12: Rizzo up a bunch of mistakes, and that's all I 891 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 12: gotta say. 892 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 2: All Right, thanks a lot man, And I think and 893 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 2: I'm not going to defend Aaron Boone. And I know 894 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 2: Aaron I would just say this, so many of those 895 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 2: decisions these days are made upstairs, just like the Dodgers 896 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,319 Speaker 2: did with Dave Roberts over the years, and that's just 897 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 2: the way the game is now. Tony and Miami, welcome back. 898 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 2: Always good to have you. What's new man, Hey, what's 899 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 2: going on? 900 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 3: Brother? 901 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 13: I don't have anything on the other two, so I'll 902 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 13: just kind of concentrate on this. Honestly, Bernie, when I 903 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,880 Speaker 13: saw the hit, I really if they want to talpen 904 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,800 Speaker 13: up basketball, that's fine. I think people are just turned 905 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 13: off anyway. 906 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 3: Let that go. 907 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:04,840 Speaker 13: But football is peer gladiator. I saw absolutely nothing wrong 908 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:08,320 Speaker 13: with it, and I feel like the guy shouldn't have 909 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 13: gotten thrown out by the game. I feel like, give 910 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 13: him fifteen twenty yard penalty. Let's move on. I really 911 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 13: don't see a problem with stuff like that. If you're 912 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,720 Speaker 13: gonna sit there a question that like, where's Ronnie Lott, 913 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:24,919 Speaker 13: where's Mike single Payer? 914 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 2: Well, those days are long gone, my friend. You know that. 915 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 2: You know that those days are long gone. And I 916 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 2: think one of the reasons they'll share two reasons he 917 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 2: got the three game suspension. He does have a body 918 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 2: of work. He's had multiple incidents like this. And the 919 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,320 Speaker 2: second thing is other players don't want to get suspended, 920 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,439 Speaker 2: so when you do something like this, everybody else sees 921 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:44,720 Speaker 2: it and sets an example. Fair. 922 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 13: Yeah, I just think if if a quarterback that six 923 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:53,959 Speaker 13: five two fifty is you're out man, I mean, and yeah, 924 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,160 Speaker 13: I mean I'll give you that. I'll definitely give you that. 925 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 13: I just think that that. 926 00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 3: You got to play the game. 927 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:03,759 Speaker 13: And then bending him three games too. I mean, I 928 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 13: can't understand it, and it translates. You got to ask 929 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 13: yourself this, branw I'll let you get back to the collegs, 930 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 13: leave you with this. The winning is really the only thing. 931 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 3: That transcends through times. 932 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 13: The reason we bring up Bill Russells eleven championships. But 933 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 13: you got to sit there and ask yourself. And Mahomes 934 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 13: is an all time great. You got to say, you know, 935 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:26,360 Speaker 13: if he was around twenty years ago when football what 936 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,799 Speaker 13: was really football not flag football? You got to say, 937 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 13: does he get hurt on or you know, is he 938 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 13: get knocked out? And you know, it just brings up 939 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 13: the greatness of Montana, of Bradshaw, of Eve, Steve Young 940 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 13: and Barv and Aikman and how tough they were. And 941 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 13: then you know, going into Brady and all that. But 942 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,440 Speaker 13: you know, I'll let you go with that. It just 943 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 13: was really frustrating to see, you know, a huge quarterback. 944 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 13: You know you can't touch him. 945 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 14: It's not the way the game should be. 946 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 2: Played, all right, fair enough, And I think one of 947 00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:01,280 Speaker 2: the things that happened since Bradshaw and Marino and Montana 948 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 2: have played is that the Union sued the NFL for 949 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 2: a billion dollars. And now the enoughl okay, you want 950 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,080 Speaker 2: you want to do that, then we don't want to 951 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 2: suit for a billion dollars anymore. So And when a 952 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:16,359 Speaker 2: when a player slides, he saying, hey, I'm giving myself up. 953 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 2: These are what the rules are now. And you know, 954 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 2: in a minute we'll get to how some of the 955 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,880 Speaker 2: players are reacting about this. But Gary in California, you 956 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 2: are up next. 957 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 6: Welcome in, Hey, Bernie, Yeah, great subject tonight. Let's get 958 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 6: to the quarterback situation. I'm old school. I'm with Al Davis. 959 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 6: Quarterback must go down, you must go down hard. I 960 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 6: know those days over with it gone way too far 961 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,359 Speaker 6: the other way, Bernie, and I think you will even 962 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:45,399 Speaker 6: admit that, especially with the roughing the passer, don't touch 963 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 6: the pass or you know, I've seen too many games 964 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 6: flipped on that call and it's not right. So yeah, 965 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 6: the hit on Trevor Lawrence, Yeah that was tough, and 966 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,800 Speaker 6: don't think it deserved three games. But if the NFL 967 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,920 Speaker 6: was really concerned about player safety, they get rid of 968 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 6: Thursday Night Football. And the other thing is to the 969 00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 6: NFL for a billion dollars. 970 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:08,280 Speaker 9: Billion dollars. 971 00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 6: These guys are all billionaires, Bernie, Come on, you know, I. 972 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,240 Speaker 3: Don't see where that's gonna stop anything. 973 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 6: So just just not a fan of it. Look at 974 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 6: even Troy Aitman, let's put skirts on him. You know, 975 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 6: that's exactly what he said on Monday Night Football. So 976 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 6: I'm not a big fan of Tom Brady. I think 977 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 6: the other caller had it right with Jim saying that, 978 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 6: yeah he's talking kind of talking out of school, but 979 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 6: he has done some good work. But let's let's get 980 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,239 Speaker 6: the game back the other way a little bit with 981 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 6: the quarterback situation. 982 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 2: Bernie, all right, good, good opinions. Gary, You know you're 983 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 2: I will tell you a lot of people are in 984 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:47,720 Speaker 2: your camp on this. It swung the penulum has frankly 985 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:51,319 Speaker 2: swung too far the other way in a lot of 986 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 2: people's minds. Steven Kansas City, welcome out and you're you're 987 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:55,479 Speaker 2: up next. 988 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 15: Man. 989 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 8: I love the topic. I love the flag planting. Uh 990 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 8: Ohio State had that thing coming. I've been a big, 991 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 8: big ten fan all my life and what they did 992 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 8: to Indiana was horrible. In the last possession, Michigan gave 993 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,479 Speaker 8: it to him in spades, and I love it. That's 994 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 8: what's after a big game. Plant the flag anywhere you want, 995 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 8: because that's what separates this from pro football where we 996 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 8: got this disease. Now where you know, Michigan Champions Club 997 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 8: with Forbes and Oracle Guy and Portnoy are buying this 998 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 8: quarterback for ten million dollars, and I mean, you know 999 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:44,359 Speaker 8: you you know better, you know better than anyone. Bill 1000 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 8: Belichick is one to be the GM of North Carolina 1001 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 8: and is going to put in his son as coach. 1002 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:54,760 Speaker 8: And according to this Friday night news drop right now, 1003 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 8: look look that story up that he's going to bring 1004 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 8: all of his all of his New England Budies to 1005 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 8: the North Carolina. 1006 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 11: I don't want I don't want. 1007 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 8: Bill Belichick coaching college.

And I'm not even sure. 1011 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 8: I'm not even Sir Larry Ellison likes Michigan all that much. 1012 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,360 Speaker 8: This is this is where we're at. It's the real time. 1013 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 8: It's real time changing of the guards from college to 1014 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:34,359 Speaker 8: pro let Let it all go. Let let I want 1015 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,800 Speaker 8: in these championship games. I want somebody stabbing a flag 1016 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 8: in the in the in the field if you feel, 1017 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 8: if you feel like it, let him be college athletes. 1018 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 8: I don't want I don't want to watch PO tomorrow. 1019 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 8: I want to watch my my college game. 1020 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:49,399 Speaker 3: I don't. 1021 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 8: I don't want to see Bill Belichick coaching North North Carolina. 1022 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 8: I mean, that's that's just I don't. 1023 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:58,120 Speaker 16: Why do you Why do. 1024 00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 8: You paralyze these kids? Why pali for enjoying a great 1025 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 8: guy that don't remember the rest of their lives. 1026 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 2: Good stuff, Steve, and I need to love to keep 1027 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 2: you on arm. But I want to get to all 1028 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 2: the callers. Just a couple of things, and I will 1029 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 2: look at that story because that would be one hell 1030 00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 2: of a story. If Belichick ends up in North Carolina. 1031 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,680 Speaker 2: I'd be very shocked. He wants to catch Don Shula. 1032 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 2: He's got fifteen wins to catch you, and he can't 1033 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:29,839 Speaker 2: do it to North Carolina. I certainly accept your your 1034 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:34,280 Speaker 2: opinion on flag planning. But to answer the question the irony, 1035 00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 2: there are rules against taunting during the game, and so 1036 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 2: referees have to maintain control of the line between controlled 1037 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 2: and uncontrolled violence. That's their job. The problem with flag 1038 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,760 Speaker 2: planning is it's a taunt. It's a provocative taunt after 1039 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,360 Speaker 2: the game, and refs can't guard the line, so player 1040 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 2: safety comes into question. But you and voxtone, who tweets 1041 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 2: in must be joined at the hip, he said, Bernie, 1042 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 2: flag planning is great. They should honestly take it up 1043 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 2: a notch. As a little George Costanza referen I love 1044 00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 2: that they should honestly take it up a notch and 1045 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 2: be able to burn a replica of the opponent's mascot 1046 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 2: on a spit right on the fifty. Make it a 1047 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 2: gladiator sport. We want blood.

Bernie. 1102 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 18: So, first of all, I'm against flag planting and I'm 1103 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 18: against running up the score. I'm also against the golden. 1104 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:43,280 Speaker 8: At bad idea. 1105 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 18: But I would like to comment on the twelfth and 1106 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 18: final spot in the college. 1107 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 16: Football play out. 1108 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 2: Ahead, Yeah, go ahead, Sure. 1109 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:56,439 Speaker 18: Going back to Tuesday, when I looked at Miami, Alabama, Mississippi, 1110 00:55:56,480 --> 00:56:01,400 Speaker 18: and South Carolina, I thought and still think that Mississippi. 1111 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:02,160 Speaker 16: Has the best body of work. 1112 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 18: And if you simply look at them versus Alabama, they 1113 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 18: have four common opponents, and Mississippi did much much better 1114 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 18: against three of those four opponents. So I would simply ask, 1115 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:18,320 Speaker 18: if that was reversed and Alabama had done better against 1116 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 18: three of the four, is there any chance that Mississippi 1117 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 18: would be taken over Alabama? 1118 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,279 Speaker 2: You know, the Dave, you're a practical guy. You know, 1119 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:30,839 Speaker 2: the damn thing's a TV show, right, yep? And Lane 1120 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:35,319 Speaker 2: Kiffin has already been screaming from the hilltops on what 1121 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:39,479 Speaker 2: has taken place? And this is going to get Yeah, 1122 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 2: go ahead, continue on with your thoughts. 1123 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:41,440 Speaker 3: Yep. 1124 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 18: Well, my other thing is if it comes down tomorrow 1125 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:50,400 Speaker 18: to SMU versus Alabama. Okay, we know it's a TV 1126 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 18: show and Alabama has a huge edge. 1127 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 8: And they certainly do have more quality victories. 1128 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,799 Speaker 18: You got to give them that they do. But in 1129 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 18: the regular season of twelve games, there was a difference 1130 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,920 Speaker 18: not of one loss, but of two. It was eleven 1131 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:08,719 Speaker 18: and one versus nine and three. And then let's look 1132 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 18: at how they each did on the road. SMU was 1133 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 18: five to oh on the road, including wins. 1134 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:15,439 Speaker 8: At Louisville and Duke. 1135 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 18: Alabama was two and three on the road, including a 1136 00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 18: loss to Vanderbilt and a twenty one point loss to 1137 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 18: a really bad Oklahoma team. 1138 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 2: I want to say one thing about Old missil because 1139 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 2: you bring up very coaching points. Losing to Florida twenty 1140 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 2: four to seventeen killed them, just killed them. So they 1141 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 2: find themselves in this discussion where it's in the hands 1142 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 2: of the people because they did it to themselves. 1143 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 9: Well. 1144 00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:46,560 Speaker 18: Worse than that was losing to Kentucky at home. 1145 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 2: That was their first loss back in September. They could 1146 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 2: have survived that, They could have survived the LSU loss. 1147 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 2: With two losses. They beat Oklahoma, Alabama, didn't they both 1148 00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 2: beat Georgia. You know, to your points, right, listen, you're 1149 00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 2: not the first person to make that case. 1150 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 8: Anything else, Dave, Well, here's a team nobody talks about. 1151 00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 3: Missouri. 1152 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 18: If they had won that incredible back and forth game 1153 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 18: with South Carolina, they'd be sitting with two losses. Would 1154 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 18: they be kind of safely in right now? 1155 00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 2: Like Tennessee is, Well, it's an imponderable. We don't know. Yeah, 1156 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,200 Speaker 2: we don't know. I think, all right, thanks a lot, David. 1157 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 2: I think in future years we need to get rid 1158 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 2: of the buys. You just make it sixteen. That's stop 1159 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 2: screwing around and get rid of the bye games. Boise 1160 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 2: State's going to get a bye. They're a good football team. 1161 00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 2: Do they deserve a buye? That's another big argument. Michael 1162 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 2: in Tulsa, Oklahoma, you are up next. Thanks for hanging on. 1163 00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 16: What's up, Bud, Hi Bernie, great show. 1164 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 2: Thank you. 1165 00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 16: The flag planting, I've yet to see anybody actually plant 1166 00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:58,040 Speaker 16: the flag in the artificial turf. You can't pierce the flag. 1167 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 16: I mean, you can't pierce the turf with the flag. 1168 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 3: And who is it? Uh? 1169 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:09,880 Speaker 16: Baker started it, Baker Mayfield. He almost broke his wrist. 1170 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 16: Uh yeah, putting that flag in the I mean in 1171 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 16: real turf, maybe you got a chance, but. 1172 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 2: It's it's the symbolism of it. It's the symbolism and 1173 00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 2: the optics they get there. 1174 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 16: Never sticks in the ground. 1175 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:27,280 Speaker 2: Well, and I'm not I'm not, I'm not advocating idiot, 1176 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 2: but but yeah, I mean that's that that might be 1177 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 2: a reason not to do it, But I don't think 1178 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 2: they think of those things. 1179 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:35,960 Speaker 16: Right right in the heat of the moment. All right, 1180 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 16: thank you very much. 1181 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 2: Well, thanks Mike, thanks for checking in. Just for giggles. 1182 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:44,440 Speaker 2: Truck Truck Stop Fungus checks in on Twitter. He says, flat, Bernie, 1183 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,640 Speaker 2: flag planning is taunting and unsportsman like. In my opinion, 1184 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,000 Speaker 2: we always lined up and slapped hands and said good 1185 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 2: game afterwards, from Pop Warner up to high school. Keep 1186 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,720 Speaker 2: it classy. There's there's something to be said for that. 1187 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 2: Andrea in Massachusetts, good evening. 1188 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:58,800 Speaker 13: How are you, Bernie, How are you doing? 1189 00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 19: Thanks for taking the call. Listen just hit with the 1190 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 19: Al Shaziir and Trevor Lawrence. I do have to say, 1191 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 19: I think the NFL had to crack down the optics 1192 01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 19: of it. But when you when you look at it 1193 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 19: in slow motion, he's, like Trevor Lawrence obviously slides and 1194 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 19: so he's lowering his body angle and Al Shaziir like 1195 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,960 Speaker 19: hits him with his forearms more. It wasn't launching, targeting 1196 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:22,600 Speaker 19: like he let what he hit him with the crown 1197 01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 19: of his helmet. You know, Trevor, Lawrence is sliding and 1198 01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 19: so he's leaning back and you're coming in as a linebacker. 1199 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,320 Speaker 19: I mean you're gonna make some contact with the quarterback, 1200 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 19: you know. So he kind of gives them the forearms shoved, 1201 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:34,880 Speaker 19: and of course that's what causes Lawrence that you know, 1202 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 19: head goes back, hits the hits the you know the turf, 1203 01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 19: you know, the field, and that's what caused the concussion. 1204 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 19: So I just want to kind of note what he 1205 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:45,120 Speaker 19: would have had what he would have had to have 1206 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 19: done not to get a penalty. It just essentially like 1207 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 19: fly over the quarterback and like touch him, you know. 1208 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 2: Enough, fair enough stand the line under his stand line. 1209 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 2: And we haven't heard from me in a few weeks. 1210 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 2: We need to hear from you more often. Look, this 1211 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 2: is a multifaceted conversation. He went in with two four 1212 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:05,960 Speaker 2: arms at full speed, and this is not al Shear's 1213 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:10,000 Speaker 2: first barbecue. In Week two, he punched Roshawn Johnson the 1214 01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 2: Bears on the sideline the NFL let him off easy. 1215 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 2: They find him eleven thousand bucks. He did something very 1216 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 2: similar to what Miles Garrett did when Miles Garrett tried to, 1217 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:23,560 Speaker 2: you know, take off Mason Rudolph helmet and swung the helmet. 1218 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 2: And this is a situation now. I think it's his 1219 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 2: third event and there have actually been writers calling him 1220 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,360 Speaker 2: to be suspended the whole year because the NFL beats 1221 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 2: their chest about player safety. But then something like this, right, 1222 01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:39,360 Speaker 2: so you got the floor again. I've just wanted to 1223 01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:40,520 Speaker 2: add some inflection there. 1224 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 19: Boy taking there is a track record number of different precedents, 1225 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 19: so it's not the man's first rodeo. But what I'm 1226 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 19: saying is in fairness, we do have the other argument 1227 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 19: saying football is football, and you continue to and I 1228 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:57,960 Speaker 19: agree with these kind of rule changes surrounding targeting so 1229 01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 19: we don't have these catastrophic injuries. But where can a 1230 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 19: defensive player hit the offensive player, particularly when they're crouching 1231 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:08,200 Speaker 19: or go You know that they're not kind of straight 1232 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 19: up now with the quarterback once they go into their slide, 1233 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 19: you know it's clear they're trying to get down, but 1234 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:17,440 Speaker 19: you would just essentially, how does that does he just 1235 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 19: step over him and like touch him with his hands 1236 01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 19: and then so like he's down. You know, you really 1237 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 19: the defensive player. Once that quarterback starts to slide, you 1238 01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 19: really don't have a way to tack well, you. 1239 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 2: Know, Andre, various players have a different He's given himself up. 1240 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 2: You tap him on the head, run by. I mean 1241 01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 2: every week quarterback slide every game. Right, they're taught to slide, 1242 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,920 Speaker 2: they're taught to Steve Young talked about it. This isn't new, 1243 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 2: and quarterbacks don't want to get hit. I mean unless 1244 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,520 Speaker 2: you want to have a short career. So you raise 1245 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 2: a question. It's really almost sort of rhetorical. Everybody's got 1246 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 2: to find their own way to do it. Anything else tonight, Andre, Bernie, 1247 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 2: last one I got to make. 1248 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:56,120 Speaker 9: It's window dressing. 1249 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 19: People have noted Bill Belichick he's not going to Carolina. 1250 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:00,880 Speaker 2: Then I think it's about still have it. 1251 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 16: You want to pass Sula. 1252 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:04,800 Speaker 19: He wants to keep himself relevant, like give him you 1253 01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:07,160 Speaker 19: know what I mean, pr people keep them relevant. Now, 1254 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 19: there's gonna be a lot of jobs open on the 1255 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 19: coaching care so he'll land one of them and we'll 1256 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,480 Speaker 19: see what he can do without Tom Brady thanks taking time, Bernie. 1257 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:15,760 Speaker 2: Hey man, don't don't be a stranger.

What are your thoughts? 1270 01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:54,480 Speaker 3: You know what? I am concerned for that too. But 1271 01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,520 Speaker 3: here's here's the thing, though, I think UNLV will do 1272 01:03:57,640 --> 01:04:00,680 Speaker 3: everything under the power, under their son, under their power, 1273 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 3: under their belt to try to keep him and try 1274 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 3: to keep him, to keep that school prestige going. I mean, 1275 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,040 Speaker 3: I know momentum is just a makeshift work, but you 1276 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 3: know he has the ability to get those kids to 1277 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 3: play hard, something that it's been for almost thirty years 1278 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 3: that I've been here, that hasn't been done. So we've 1279 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,600 Speaker 3: seen them play good, we've seen them play well. They 1280 01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,720 Speaker 3: started off some years fot to know and then just 1281 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:29,680 Speaker 3: complete chaos at the end of the season. 1282 01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 2: Well, the big thing is he got horses in here 1283 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 2: from SEC schools. Oh yeah, and that's I mean, you know, 1284 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:38,920 Speaker 2: Pete Roe said at best, coaching college football is like 1285 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,439 Speaker 2: driving a stage coach without the horses. He ain't going forward. 1286 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 2: He got the horses ain't here. Okay, what are your 1287 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 2: thoughts on our topics tonight? 1288 01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 3: So okay, so really quickly, I'm going to go off 1289 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 3: topic one second.

Yeah? 1291 01:04:57,840 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 2: Oh, there's just no way. There's just no way to know. 1292 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 2: It's a short number. Uh So that yeah, stick. 1293 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:09,480 Speaker 3: He literally was offensive coordinator to now he's the head 1294 01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 3: Internet head coach. So I mean, he's going to have 1295 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 3: his work cut out for him this week, and especially 1296 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:19,120 Speaker 3: going against a division opponent. So we're we're sorry, you guess, 1297 01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:25,560 Speaker 3: sou Francisco. We're looking to potentially play a play the 1298 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,439 Speaker 3: Dance with Kyle Shanahan. That's what I'm thinking. They're they're 1299 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:31,400 Speaker 3: looking to get Kyle Shanahan somehow, some way, whether it 1300 01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:35,080 Speaker 3: be via trades and draft picks, whether it be just 1301 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 3: a straight up coach coach trade. But you know, I 1302 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 3: think that's what that's going through. And as far as 1303 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 3: like the plan that the flag planning goes, Hey, let 1304 01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,840 Speaker 3: the kids run out the tunnel with the flag beforehand, 1305 01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:49,440 Speaker 3: and if they win, they beat them on the floor. 1306 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 3: You take the flag, you run with it around. You 1307 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 3: don't plan it, but to take it back to your 1308 01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:55,280 Speaker 3: locker room at the end of the day and be 1309 01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 3: done with it. 1310 01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:59,360 Speaker 2: That's so good. That's a damn good happy medium. 1311 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,080 Speaker 3: Bill Belichick's not going to UNC. I wish people would 1312 01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 3: stop with that that that's that's a load of crap. 1313 01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:10,160 Speaker 3: And everybody knows that he's only playing the field to 1314 01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 3: see what everybody else cards. Hold. If you've ever played Texas, 1315 01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 3: hold him, you're bluff the call. Your bluff the call. 1316 01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 3: You're bluff the call. You get everybody to go all 1317 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,560 Speaker 3: in and then get up. I got pocketations. I'm going 1318 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:24,000 Speaker 3: this way. You take the bet and you take the 1319 01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 3: pot and you go home. That's what I think you 1320 01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:28,440 Speaker 3: and C's got. UNC's not going to take him he's 1321 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:30,240 Speaker 3: going to pull Dan Hurley if he's going to act 1322 01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:33,919 Speaker 3: like he's going there the visits and then oh, y'all 1323 01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 3: thought I was coming here? 1324 01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 2: Nah nah, catch he can't, he can't catch Don Shula 1325 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 2: at a right, great stuff, Kyle, don't be stranger, Marnning. 1326 01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 2: She's got to get tell the callers, Mark and Maryland, 1327 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,440 Speaker 2: welcome back. Who are you hi? 1328 01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 9: Bernie? 1329 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 2: Always a pleasure, Thank you, sir. 1330 01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:56,840 Speaker 9: I'm very passionate about these two topics. Planning the fat 1331 01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:01,440 Speaker 9: the flag is the epitome of bad sports SHP, especially 1332 01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:03,960 Speaker 9: on an opposing field. You can do it on your field, 1333 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:07,280 Speaker 9: of course, but it will always cause a riot because 1334 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:11,480 Speaker 9: players will won't be disrespected like that. But my problem 1335 01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,200 Speaker 9: with this whole thing is the coaches allow this thing. 1336 01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 9: The coaches should should not allow their players. The players 1337 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 9: are running the game. It's tawney, it's amiliating, it's not football. 1338 01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:24,920 Speaker 9: It turns my stomach when. 1339 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:25,400 Speaker 20: I see it. 1340 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:31,800 Speaker 9: Okay, it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Okay, 1341 01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:33,600 Speaker 9: I can enjoy the game, and then when I see that, 1342 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 9: I lose respect for it. Okay, especially the coaches, because 1343 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:40,439 Speaker 9: they're supposed to be a grooming young men. 1344 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:42,880 Speaker 17: Into responsible role models. 1345 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 3: Now. 1346 01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:49,640 Speaker 9: Enough on that. Now the second topic is the quarterbacks 1347 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 9: being hit. Now, I grew up with Sonny Jergison and 1348 01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 9: Billy Kimper. The NFL changed the rules to bring in 1349 01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:00,400 Speaker 9: the casual trad when they had cuff the corner and 1350 01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:04,480 Speaker 9: devalue the running backs. Okay, I understanding the quarterback is 1351 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 9: the most valuable commodity. I saw all of our Arrington 1352 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:11,200 Speaker 9: knock out Troy Aikman. Okay, with that hit, there was 1353 01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 9: a vicious hit. Okay, but you know, I'm kind of 1354 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 9: in the middle of the road. Now, I'm an old 1355 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:21,639 Speaker 9: school guy. But quarterbacks have to be protected but not coddled. 1356 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 9: There's a fine line with that. 1357 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:24,559 Speaker 3: You know. 1358 01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 9: Back in the day, you had you had to have 1359 01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 9: a quality quarterback because a quality second string quarterback because 1360 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 9: the first thing quarterback wasn't gonna make it through the season. Okay, 1361 01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 9: Bob Grisi or Marl Okay, everybody had that. But now 1362 01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:45,080 Speaker 9: it's different. I mean, and I believe in protecting the 1363 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:48,240 Speaker 9: quarterbacks because they're in a vulnerable position. That's why the 1364 01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:52,840 Speaker 9: left tackle is the second most valuable position, because it's 1365 01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:57,360 Speaker 9: the blind side of the quarterback when you're looking downfeeling 1366 01:08:57,400 --> 01:09:00,200 Speaker 9: all of that and some of these guys going with 1367 01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 9: the intention of knocking these guys out. When you got 1368 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:07,640 Speaker 9: a three hundred pound guy running under five flat, you know, 1369 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:11,600 Speaker 9: trying to plant this quarterback. No, no, no, but you 1370 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:14,280 Speaker 9: got to find a balance. So that's what I'm all right. 1371 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,840 Speaker 2: That's you. Appreciate both both good points. Thanks Mark. We'll 1372 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:20,120 Speaker 2: talk to you getting down the road. Lynn and san Diego, 1373 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 2: welcome back. Good eating, sir. 1374 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 3: Heay, thank you, Bernie. 1375 01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,880 Speaker 9: I'll be getting busy time, but I love you and 1376 01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:30,439 Speaker 9: I respect you enough and your show to call man. 1377 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:31,920 Speaker 2: Appreciate what you bring out of me. 1378 01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 10: You get that out of me. 1379 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 2: Appreciate it. Buddy. Pick any of the topics and where 1380 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 2: would you like to take it? 1381 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:44,000 Speaker 21: Uh yeah, okay, so uh if you want to try 1382 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 21: to do something about it, halfway decent. I say, as 1383 01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:51,080 Speaker 21: soon as a quarterback, uh become a runner, let off 1384 01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:57,240 Speaker 21: bets be off, Let allow holding allowed, shocking the offensive 1385 01:09:57,240 --> 01:09:59,599 Speaker 21: guys that grab the hell out of whoever's going near 1386 01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:02,680 Speaker 21: their quarter back and throw him off the field, whatever. 1387 01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,320 Speaker 9: Let the big guy get aggressive. 1388 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,160 Speaker 3: As soon as the quarterback become. 1389 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:07,760 Speaker 9: A runner, I think it will help. 1390 01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what you think what. 1391 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:13,800 Speaker 2: That actually is in the books within reason, you can't 1392 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,479 Speaker 2: head hunt, and there's certain things you can't do. But 1393 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 2: when the guy gives himself up and starts to slide, 1394 01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:20,280 Speaker 2: what happens then? 1395 01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:26,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, see, now that's discretion on the player. If if 1396 01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 9: you're gonna, you know, hit him or whatever, just don't 1397 01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:31,680 Speaker 9: be vicious and they might let you. 1398 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:34,559 Speaker 21: Slide, but you're gonna be trying to kill the guy 1399 01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:35,360 Speaker 21: and head hunting. 1400 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:37,640 Speaker 9: You deserve whatever you get from the rest. There's a 1401 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 9: way to do it. You just got to be sly 1402 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 9: about it. Don't be obvious trying to kill. 1403 01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 13: Him after he done already gave up. 1404 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 3: That's crazy. I can't do that as a player, fair enough. 1405 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:48,679 Speaker 2: Any thoughts on the flag planning. 1406 01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:50,760 Speaker 3: I don't like it. 1407 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:55,120 Speaker 21: One bit because Bernie, when I was growing up playing sports, 1408 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 21: you was always taught to take the high road, man, 1409 01:10:57,800 --> 01:11:00,559 Speaker 21: And it's what's the point if you eat the team, 1410 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 21: check their hands and let him know. I appreciate you 1411 01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,960 Speaker 21: guys competing, but we just were better than you are 1412 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:10,439 Speaker 21: on this given day. That's good enough. 1413 01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:12,759 Speaker 9: Like Tyson, he was awesome. 1414 01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 21: He would knock the hir cut of people, but he 1415 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:17,639 Speaker 21: would always help him up and and whisper sweet nothing 1416 01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:18,280 Speaker 21: in their ear. 1417 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 2: Hey, Lynn, buddy, always a pleasure man.

That way, if he gets 1426 01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:47,120 Speaker 14: the hormeworn knocked on him, he just says that reverse 1427 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:48,719 Speaker 14: and gets at battle over again. 1428 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:49,479 Speaker 2: Here we go. 1429 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:51,679 Speaker 14: I think i's how to do a split cup challenge 1430 01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 14: at first base if you want to steal suck it. 1431 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:57,800 Speaker 14: I think these are great. You're gonna make it the 1432 01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 14: Savannah bananas or whatever they're called. 1433 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,320 Speaker 2: You know, you know what I think you have to do. Bryce. 1434 01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:06,599 Speaker 2: You know how stadiums don't give they don't sell beer 1435 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,960 Speaker 2: after the seventh inning. Yeah, I think they should be 1436 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 2: free beer after the seventeen What do you think about that? 1437 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 14: Yeah, even to the players, real. 1438 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely, especially with the players. 1439 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:19,559 Speaker 16: Yeah, let's go for it. 1440 01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:24,080 Speaker 14: As far as flag planning goes, it's after the game. 1441 01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:27,720 Speaker 14: And so if the players are going to do it, 1442 01:12:27,920 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 14: they're going to do it anyway. 1443 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:31,360 Speaker 8: And if you're. 1444 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,719 Speaker 14: Worried about like people getting in fight or whatnot, that's assault. 1445 01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:37,200 Speaker 14: And if the player wants the risk getting in legal 1446 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:41,160 Speaker 14: trouble for punching out of the player, like, that's on them, 1447 01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 14: and let the teams and the NCAA handle however they 1448 01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:48,920 Speaker 14: handle the assault. But it's good entertainment. And if we've 1449 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:52,400 Speaker 14: to keep trying to force this like fake respect on 1450 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 14: everybody else, everybody's just going to turn to the WWE, 1451 01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:58,599 Speaker 14: which they're already doing now. Anyways, where we don't get 1452 01:12:58,600 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 14: the say. 1453 01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:04,000 Speaker 2: I I don't I don't necessarily disagree with the premise 1454 01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 2: of what you're saying, but we have to keep one 1455 01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 2: thing in mind that there are rules in place to 1456 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:14,800 Speaker 2: prevent taunting during the game, and flag planting is a 1457 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:21,040 Speaker 2: form of taunting. I think it's it's it's a provocative taunt. 1458 01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:23,920 Speaker 2: The game's over, there's no rules around, there's no roughs around, 1459 01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:27,680 Speaker 2: and so it's it's the law of under tenant consequences 1460 01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 2: that leads to that. You follow me, So that's that's fine. 1461 01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:32,719 Speaker 2: You got the last word. Go ahead. 1462 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:34,240 Speaker 8: No, no, no, you're fine. 1463 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:36,880 Speaker 14: I see you're coming from I just think after the 1464 01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 14: final whistle's blown, it's kind of us in the hands 1465 01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:42,880 Speaker 14: for the players and coaches of what happens. And it's 1466 01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 14: something illegal happens, like getting in fight, so whatnot. And 1467 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:50,840 Speaker 14: then it's up to them to decide what actions are 1468 01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:54,240 Speaker 14: being taken. But anyway, and then the last thing on 1469 01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,160 Speaker 14: the Trevor Lawrence say, I think that we should get 1470 01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:58,320 Speaker 14: rid of the quarterback flag altogether, get rid of the 1471 01:13:58,360 --> 01:14:01,639 Speaker 14: gray area. The NFL and it'self no favors by having 1472 01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:05,680 Speaker 14: this flight subjective rule. And I think more once the 1473 01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 14: quarterback decides the run outside the pocket, he's a runner, 1474 01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:11,920 Speaker 14: I think he should be treated just like a wide 1475 01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:13,280 Speaker 14: receiver or a running back. 1476 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:15,120 Speaker 2: All right, good stuff, man, appreciate you check it in. 1477 01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 2: Still time to get in eight seven, seven, nine to 1478 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,639 Speaker 2: nine on Fox eight seven seven nine six six three 1479 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:27,679 Speaker 2: six nine flag planning the alsheer hit on Trevor Lawrence 1480 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:31,280 Speaker 2: the suspension.

So it 1596 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:29,479 Speaker 22: got me thinking of some like memorable movie lines like so, 1597 01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:31,720 Speaker 22: because I feel like Jamis is obviously going to be 1598 01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:35,760 Speaker 22: a memorable you know, just like a media probably personality 1599 01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 22: eventually when he retires, and I feel like these quotes 1600 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:42,080 Speaker 22: probably going to live on forever. So I'm going to 1601 01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 22: start off with Jaws. You're going to need a bigger boat. Yep, yep, 1602 01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:51,640 Speaker 22: said by obviously Chief Brody and Carl Gottlieb, who co 1603 01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 22: wrote the screenplay, revealed like how the origin of that 1604 01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:58,080 Speaker 22: quote came about. And I guess when they were filming, 1605 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,320 Speaker 22: like it was, there was a lot of is shoes 1606 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:03,400 Speaker 22: with production, and so the crew was working off a 1607 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:06,360 Speaker 22: barge that carried the equipment and craft services, and then 1608 01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:09,479 Speaker 22: they had a smaller support boat. But the crew members 1609 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,320 Speaker 22: complained that the support boat was too small, so they 1610 01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:14,160 Speaker 22: couldn't fit everything, and they kind of had to go 1611 01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:17,280 Speaker 22: back and forth like a ton of times. And so 1612 01:21:18,479 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 22: you know, Schneider eventually like picked up this thing and 1613 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:24,360 Speaker 22: started sneaking it into different takes and so then it 1614 01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 22: just kind of came up and then they just kept 1615 01:21:26,280 --> 01:21:26,800 Speaker 22: it in there. 1616 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:28,200 Speaker 23: So that was I didn't know that. 1617 01:21:28,280 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, So that was a powerful quote. I remember when 1618 01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:32,720 Speaker 2: Richard Dreyfus said it. It was a real pivotal point 1619 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:33,360 Speaker 2: in the movie. 1620 01:21:33,560 --> 01:21:37,599 Speaker 5: It was Schier who said it, schid Roy Scheider, Yes, 1621 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 5: And so it was. 1622 01:21:38,240 --> 01:21:39,840 Speaker 22: Like an hour into the movie. 1623 01:21:40,320 --> 01:21:42,599 Speaker 2: I got mixed up with this was no bolting accident 1624 01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:43,120 Speaker 2: that was. 1625 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:44,960 Speaker 3: So yeah. 1626 01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:46,280 Speaker 22: So it was like an hour into the movie and 1627 01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:48,240 Speaker 22: it was right after like we saw like the Shark 1628 01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,240 Speaker 22: for like the first time. So that was my first one. 1629 01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:54,439 Speaker 22: And then I went with this shining so here comes 1630 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 22: Johnny so and the line wasn't from the script or 1631 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:02,639 Speaker 22: from Stephen King novel. It was an ad lib from 1632 01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:06,400 Speaker 22: Jack Nicholson wo And it was obviously like a kind 1633 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:11,040 Speaker 22: of like tribute to Johnny Carson. And so the reason 1634 01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 22: why a lot of people say that they just kept 1635 01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:17,320 Speaker 22: it in there was because Kubrick like he lived in 1636 01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 22: like England at the time, so he like missed the 1637 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:23,320 Speaker 22: reference altogether. So they feel like if he would have 1638 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:25,720 Speaker 22: actually known, maybe they would have like removed it from 1639 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 22: the movie. Wow, since he was like I was reading 1640 01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:32,000 Speaker 22: about like he's like he was very like strict on 1641 01:22:32,040 --> 01:22:33,960 Speaker 22: what he wanted and he was just one of those 1642 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,360 Speaker 22: like directors, you know. So that was my second one. 1643 01:22:37,800 --> 01:22:41,000 Speaker 22: And then I went with a classic Casablanca. And I 1644 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 22: feel like like some of these movies like you can 1645 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:45,400 Speaker 22: go with like different like there there's at least three 1646 01:22:45,520 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 22: or four different quotes that you can go on, right, 1647 01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:50,080 Speaker 22: So I went with Louis, I think this is the 1648 01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 22: beginning of a beautiful friendship as the last line of 1649 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:57,960 Speaker 22: the film, when Rick and Captain Louis Renault walk across 1650 01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:01,120 Speaker 22: the tarmac and it's all like and it was just 1651 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,080 Speaker 22: I felt like it was just a great way to. 1652 01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:03,799 Speaker 14: End the movie. 1653 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:06,640 Speaker 22: And actually, like there was two different lines that it 1654 01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:09,280 Speaker 22: could have been. The first one was Louis, I might 1655 01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:11,799 Speaker 22: have known you'd mix your patriotism with a little larceny 1656 01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:14,400 Speaker 22: or the you know, Louis, I think this is the 1657 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,160 Speaker 22: beginning of a beautiful friendship. And so obviously they went 1658 01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:20,200 Speaker 22: with the second one, but both Humphrey Bogart had to 1659 01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:23,080 Speaker 22: be brought in back to dub that line since they 1660 01:23:23,120 --> 01:23:25,640 Speaker 22: had gone with the other one before. Oh wow, so 1661 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:27,960 Speaker 22: that was a little bit interesting. And then so I 1662 01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:32,240 Speaker 22: also read that they actually kept like both of them 1663 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 22: like walking off into the fog in case they were 1664 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:39,960 Speaker 22: going to do like a sequel to the movie called Brazzaville, 1665 01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:42,800 Speaker 22: which would have followed both of them and like as 1666 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,680 Speaker 22: they flee, you know, with like as they freed the 1667 01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:48,439 Speaker 22: French or whatever, but the timing just never came about. 1668 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 22: So those are my three. So I just went in Jaws, 1669 01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:55,640 Speaker 22: The Shining and then Casablanca for my three movies. And 1670 01:23:55,680 --> 01:23:57,400 Speaker 22: like I said, I feel like with those movies, there's 1671 01:23:57,479 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 22: a ton of different quotes in that. 1672 01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:01,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I know that the Castle Blanca they had 1673 01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:04,000 Speaker 2: dubbed it thirty days later after the movie had already 1674 01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:06,559 Speaker 2: gone to post productions thirty days. Oh my god. 1675 01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:07,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's crazy. 1676 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:09,559 Speaker 22: And how do you like even figure out, like, oh, 1677 01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:11,680 Speaker 22: we're gonna just change this one line. It's like the 1678 01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:15,040 Speaker 22: most powerful line ever, one of the more powerful Linesn't 1679 01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:15,559 Speaker 22: that crazy? 1680 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:16,400 Speaker 23: Pretty crazy? 1681 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:18,599 Speaker 22: Okay, So then I'll just throw it to Mark. 1682 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:23,439 Speaker 23: Now, So my breeze threes movies, I'm going to start 1683 01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 23: with The Green Mile, and I'll just say for the 1684 01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:28,960 Speaker 23: two thousand people who might not have seen it, because 1685 01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:31,799 Speaker 23: there's a bunch of reactors that I watch on YouTube 1686 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:34,800 Speaker 23: that are always reacting to movies. Green Mile is one 1687 01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 23: of them. There's a particular thing that happens to the 1688 01:24:38,360 --> 01:24:41,559 Speaker 23: guard Percy in the movie, and he's sitting on the 1689 01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:44,320 Speaker 23: floor and he's in a daze and one of his 1690 01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:46,559 Speaker 23: coworkers walks up to him and they're trying to ask 1691 01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:50,719 Speaker 23: him to Percy, Percy, are you there? And the guy goes, 1692 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:53,200 Speaker 23: I think his cheese has slipt off his cracker. 1693 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:54,200 Speaker 4: So that kind of that. 1694 01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:57,280 Speaker 2: Was a really powerful movie. He's one of those movies. 1695 01:24:57,320 --> 01:25:02,120 Speaker 2: It was three hours, but she didn't care because well, 1696 01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:03,479 Speaker 2: look at the story that was told. 1697 01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:04,200 Speaker 5: It was great. 1698 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:06,200 Speaker 23: It was great. So that was my first one, The 1699 01:25:06,240 --> 01:25:08,680 Speaker 23: Green Wild, and I went way back to one of 1700 01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 23: my favorite movies, Goldfinger and Goldfingers. James Bond on this 1701 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:18,120 Speaker 23: plate and he has a laser beam on him and 1702 01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:23,120 Speaker 23: Goldfinger says to the bad guy, Goldfinger, do you want 1703 01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:26,040 Speaker 23: me to talk? And Goldfinger goes, no, mister Bond, I 1704 01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 23: want you to die. So that's one of my favorite 1705 01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:30,280 Speaker 23: lines of him. No, I want you to die so 1706 01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:32,840 Speaker 23: because he's in a particular play with a laser beam, 1707 01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 23: but to kill him. And my third movie that I 1708 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:39,599 Speaker 23: thought about one of my favorites is Young Frankenstein. And 1709 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:42,480 Speaker 23: like bred just said, there's a couple from Young Frankensell 1710 01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:46,040 Speaker 23: that I could think about. Roll Roll Rolling the Hay 1711 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:50,599 Speaker 23: that's one of them, and then put the Candle back 1712 01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:54,080 Speaker 23: that's another one. And then Hello Handsome. That's a couple 1713 01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:56,320 Speaker 23: of lines from that movie that just cracked me up 1714 01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:57,559 Speaker 23: every time I watch it. 1715 01:25:57,640 --> 01:26:01,840 Speaker 2: This Sick mel Brooks movie, Marty heldman right members walking 1716 01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:03,760 Speaker 2: around with that hump back and they kept saying, how'd 1717 01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:04,880 Speaker 2: you get that hump? Because what hump? 1718 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:05,479 Speaker 3: What a set? 1719 01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:06,880 Speaker 2: Like ten times in the movie. 1720 01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 23: And then one more from Young Frankenstein Walk This Way, 1721 01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:16,479 Speaker 23: which coincidentally, the band Aerosmith was on a break from 1722 01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:19,760 Speaker 23: recording and they went to watch that movie and at 1723 01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,880 Speaker 23: that moment when they saw that that line that Marty says, 1724 01:26:23,240 --> 01:26:26,000 Speaker 23: they went out and created the song walk This Way 1725 01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:28,840 Speaker 23: because of that, because of that line. So that's just 1726 01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:33,080 Speaker 23: a you know, pretty cool. Yeah, So that was best 1727 01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:36,920 Speaker 23: my three Green Mile, Goldfinger, and Young Frankenstein. So Bernie, 1728 01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:37,439 Speaker 23: what you got? 1729 01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:40,920 Speaker 2: I don't think minor as good. But but I tell 1730 01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:44,880 Speaker 2: you what I did. I just decided the first three 1731 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,160 Speaker 2: movie quotes that popped into my mind, I wasn't gonna 1732 01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:50,640 Speaker 2: overthink it. I was just gonna use them. And the 1733 01:26:50,680 --> 01:26:53,200 Speaker 2: only reason I did that is because they had to 1734 01:26:53,240 --> 01:26:56,160 Speaker 2: be quotes that are prevalent out there. Whether they were impactful, 1735 01:26:56,200 --> 01:27:01,280 Speaker 2: whether they weren't impactful, they were recognizable and they had 1736 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:04,320 Speaker 2: been lasting a test of time, even though maybe not 1737 01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:06,000 Speaker 2: a whole hell of a lot of significance. The first 1738 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:08,559 Speaker 2: one has always bothered me. It came from the movie 1739 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:12,839 Speaker 2: Godfather too, when Michael Corleone says, keep your friends close, 1740 01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:16,519 Speaker 2: but your enemies closer. Very part. Okay, people say that 1741 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:18,840 Speaker 2: in Lafe I go shut up. Okay, people, you don't 1742 01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:21,000 Speaker 2: do that. You don't even know how to Why would 1743 01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:23,840 Speaker 2: people do that? Okay, So anyway, but think about it, people, 1744 01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:26,840 Speaker 2: that was one. It was almost like in The Godfather, 1745 01:27:27,160 --> 01:27:29,519 Speaker 2: make him an offer he can't refuse, right, people will 1746 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:31,920 Speaker 2: say that those have just lasted a test of time. 1747 01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:36,280 Speaker 2: Feel the dreams. If you build it, he will come. 1748 01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:38,639 Speaker 2: It's whispering out of the sky. Must have said said 1749 01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 2: three or four times, and it's at a pivotal point 1750 01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,400 Speaker 2: in the movie. You were saying, what's happening here? How 1751 01:27:43,439 --> 01:27:46,800 Speaker 2: many times have people stolen that quote over? You know, 1752 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,920 Speaker 2: should the should should the A's cap to Vegas? If 1753 01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:51,920 Speaker 2: you build it, they will come. If the raiders. I've 1754 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:55,280 Speaker 2: heard that line repeated a thousand times. So it's impactful. 1755 01:27:55,360 --> 01:27:58,160 Speaker 2: It's impactful. Uh, And it was impactful in the movie 1756 01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 2: The Last One for me. And again, I promise this 1757 01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:05,360 Speaker 2: has no context whatsoever, but it popped into my mind 1758 01:28:05,400 --> 01:28:08,599 Speaker 2: because back when I'm watching Tom Hanks is Forrest come 1759 01:28:09,200 --> 01:28:12,400 Speaker 2: two thirds of that movie. I want, what the hell 1760 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 2: excuse me? I got a little fraud in my throat? 1761 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:21,120 Speaker 2: Hang on, sorry about that. So here's the deal. I'm 1762 01:28:21,160 --> 01:28:24,479 Speaker 2: watching this movie. I'm like, what am I watching? He's 1763 01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:27,679 Speaker 2: playing football at Alabama, he's in the Army, he's Bubba 1764 01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:31,599 Speaker 2: Gump Shrimp Company. He's running five hundred mile race, growing 1765 01:28:31,600 --> 01:28:34,760 Speaker 2: a beard. But the quote, you know, and his mom 1766 01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:37,760 Speaker 2: was Sally Field. My mom always said life was like 1767 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:39,880 Speaker 2: a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. 1768 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:43,280 Speaker 2: It just popped into my mind.

I want to have a quick PostScript 1834 01:31:50,080 --> 01:31:52,120 Speaker 2: on one of the topics we had then I during 1835 01:31:52,160 --> 01:31:55,599 Speaker 2: the midnight hour, having to do with the al asi 1836 01:31:56,120 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 2: El Sheer hit on Trevor Lawrence. Because there, there, there 1837 01:32:01,479 --> 01:32:05,879 Speaker 2: is what took place. Then the perspectives that the callers 1838 01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:09,000 Speaker 2: who remember his how what football used to look like 1839 01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:12,240 Speaker 2: and what it looks like now, and how the NFL 1840 01:32:12,400 --> 01:32:18,479 Speaker 2: has proclaimed this overture and their their serious intent on 1841 01:32:18,600 --> 01:32:23,120 Speaker 2: players safety right, and yet how much of it is 1842 01:32:23,160 --> 01:32:24,760 Speaker 2: real and how much of it is pr And here's 1843 01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:28,000 Speaker 2: why I say that, because much like the flag planning 1844 01:32:28,040 --> 01:32:34,160 Speaker 2: triggers events, this also triggers events. So on Tuesday, the 1845 01:32:34,200 --> 01:32:39,000 Speaker 2: Texans in their GM Nick Asserio, he was obviously defending 1846 01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:40,960 Speaker 2: his player, He called out the NFL for the three 1847 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:47,240 Speaker 2: game suspension and the irony. His reasoning was, He's trying 1848 01:32:47,960 --> 01:32:51,639 Speaker 2: he believes the NFL is trying to paint disease out 1849 01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:55,479 Speaker 2: share as a villain. Okay, is he is? 1850 01:32:55,520 --> 01:32:55,600 Speaker 20: He? 1851 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:58,679 Speaker 2: Does he have a point? Is he right? Because the league, 1852 01:32:58,760 --> 01:33:01,439 Speaker 2: the NFL made a hell of a push on Tuesday morning, 1853 01:33:01,520 --> 01:33:05,080 Speaker 2: the on a press release and they even had excerpts 1854 01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:08,639 Speaker 2: of a letter that was written to Alsher from former 1855 01:33:08,760 --> 01:33:14,880 Speaker 2: NFL retired player John Runyon that paint Alsher as a victim, 1856 01:33:15,200 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 2: as a villain. Excuse me, here's a quick couple of 1857 01:33:18,920 --> 01:33:23,080 Speaker 2: sentences from that letter. Quote. Your lack of sportsmanship and 1858 01:33:23,160 --> 01:33:26,519 Speaker 2: respect for the game of football and for those who play, 1859 01:33:26,680 --> 01:33:29,840 Speaker 2: coach and enjoy watching it is troubling and does not 1860 01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:34,240 Speaker 2: reflect the core values of the NFL. Your continued disregard 1861 01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:38,880 Speaker 2: for NFL playing rules puts the health and safety of 1862 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:40,920 Speaker 2: both you and your opponents and jeopardy and will not 1863 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:44,760 Speaker 2: be tolerated. Unquote quote for the league to make some 1864 01:33:44,840 --> 01:33:47,920 Speaker 2: of the commentary that they made about lack of sportsmanship, 1865 01:33:47,920 --> 01:33:51,639 Speaker 2: this is Nick Cassius. Quote Now, lack of coachability, lack 1866 01:33:51,680 --> 01:33:54,880 Speaker 2: of paying attention to the rules. Caserio said, quite frankly, 1867 01:33:54,960 --> 01:33:57,880 Speaker 2: that's embarrassing. The picture that's been painted about his ease 1868 01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:01,200 Speaker 2: is pure BS. He didn't say bs. He said the 1869 01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:01,719 Speaker 2: full word. 1870 01:34:02,720 --> 01:34:03,559 Speaker 3: Whether we like it or not. 1871 01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:05,479 Speaker 2: Cancierra may have a point. The league is trying to 1872 01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:08,240 Speaker 2: paint al Scheer to look like a bad guy because 1873 01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:11,200 Speaker 2: they want the suspension to look like the right decision. 1874 01:34:12,360 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 2: And as part of the NFL press release, you know, 1875 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:20,200 Speaker 2: it was mentioned that al Sheheer has had multiple offenses 1876 01:34:20,800 --> 01:34:25,920 Speaker 2: for personal files, other sportsmanship related rules, other sportsmanship related violations, 1877 01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:28,960 Speaker 2: and not just this season, in recent seasons. But the 1878 01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 2: statement doesn't mention any so why not list them? You look, 1879 01:34:33,760 --> 01:34:37,120 Speaker 2: this got weird. It got a little over the top here. 1880 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,000 Speaker 2: One of the callers say, Trevor Lawrence is not for 1881 01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:40,519 Speaker 2: the year. I think it was Jerome. Is there an 1882 01:34:40,520 --> 01:34:45,360 Speaker 2: excellent called by Jerome Charleston. And so this is a 1883 01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:48,160 Speaker 2: debate that's going to go back and forth. You hear 1884 01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:50,719 Speaker 2: my comment. It's not tongue in cheek, it's real. Okay. 1885 01:34:51,400 --> 01:34:54,360 Speaker 2: Players sued. They sued the NFL for a billion dollars 1886 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:57,599 Speaker 2: on this whole concussion thing. So the NFL is, okay, 1887 01:34:57,640 --> 01:34:59,519 Speaker 2: you know what you want to do that then we're 1888 01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:02,040 Speaker 2: gonna we're gonna shift things around. We don't really like 1889 01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:03,840 Speaker 2: they might. The NFL is on their way to being 1890 01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:05,840 Speaker 2: a twenty five billion dollars league. That doesn't mean Roger 1891 01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:07,960 Speaker 2: Cadell wants to part with a billion. So I don't 1892 01:35:07,960 --> 01:35:10,800 Speaker 2: know what the happy medium is. Fortunately, these things don't 1893 01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:13,519 Speaker 2: happen that often if you really consider it. In the 1894 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:16,719 Speaker 2: grand scheme of things, they don't really happen that often. 1895 01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:19,200 Speaker 2: But this one, the more you look at it, no 1896 01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:22,040 Speaker 2: one really comes out looking good. You just can't say 1897 01:35:22,080 --> 01:35:24,479 Speaker 2: they do. And the product of the NFL is simply 1898 01:35:24,520 --> 01:35:27,160 Speaker 2: different now that it used to be. But you have 1899 01:35:27,240 --> 01:35:31,080 Speaker 2: the event with Triggers afterward, and the Texans and their 1900 01:35:31,120 --> 01:35:34,200 Speaker 2: management going into their spin, former NFL player John Running 1901 01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:37,639 Speaker 2: going into his spin, and you know, players from both 1902 01:35:37,680 --> 01:35:41,080 Speaker 2: sides going into theirs and reporters and journalists, and oh, 1903 01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:43,120 Speaker 2: by the way, I found out that after John Running 1904 01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:48,840 Speaker 2: sent that letter, there was perhaps some accusations allegedly of 1905 01:35:48,920 --> 01:35:52,439 Speaker 2: hypocrisy on behalf of John Running because someone found video 1906 01:35:52,439 --> 01:35:54,560 Speaker 2: of him doing similar things. I guess I don't know. 1907 01:35:54,600 --> 01:35:58,120 Speaker 2: I haven't seen the video, Tay, what I am looking 1908 01:35:58,160 --> 01:36:00,800 Speaker 2: forward to. Okay, we're a few hours away from the 1909 01:36:00,960 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 2: ultimate college football playoff ranking being decided, which we will 1910 01:36:06,040 --> 01:36:09,200 Speaker 2: be able to watch on TV Sunday morning at nine 1911 01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:13,599 Speaker 2: am Pacific noon Eastern, and we'll see what the first 1912 01:36:13,720 --> 01:36:17,040 Speaker 2: twelve team postseason bracket looks like. Who made it, who's 1913 01:36:17,080 --> 01:36:19,640 Speaker 2: on the outside looking in, and based on what we 1914 01:36:19,680 --> 01:36:21,599 Speaker 2: think we know now. If you're a Big ten fan, 1915 01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:24,360 Speaker 2: it looks like you're getting four teams in. I think 1916 01:36:24,400 --> 01:36:29,080 Speaker 2: this as solid as can be Oregon, Penn State, Ohio State, 1917 01:36:29,360 --> 01:36:35,240 Speaker 2: and Alabama. If you are the SEC, it looks like 1918 01:36:35,560 --> 01:36:40,760 Speaker 2: you're getting four teams in Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, and you 1919 01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:43,280 Speaker 2: may not like this looks like it's going to be 1920 01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:50,360 Speaker 2: Alabama the ACC. Assuming SMU wins, I'm sure they're in. 1921 01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:56,680 Speaker 2: If they don't win, they could still get in. I 1922 01:36:56,720 --> 01:37:01,639 Speaker 2: don't know, but right now it looks like SIME Big twelve. 1923 01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:04,240 Speaker 2: I just feel like Arizona State takes care of business 1924 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:06,600 Speaker 2: against Iowa State. Could I be wrong, sure, but the 1925 01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:08,880 Speaker 2: Big Twelve would get one and be either Arizona State 1926 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:11,559 Speaker 2: or Iowa State. De Mountain West, Boise State. Take your 1927 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:13,759 Speaker 2: victory lap you are in. And as far as the Independence, 1928 01:37:13,800 --> 01:37:16,759 Speaker 2: of course, Notre Dame. Now the ACC, the Big Twelve, 1929 01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:21,559 Speaker 2: those championship games are winner go home for Clemson, SMU 1930 01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:25,120 Speaker 2: and Arizona State, Iowa State respectively. Now the Big Ten 1931 01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:29,400 Speaker 2: title game Oregon and Penn State and SEC Texas and Georgia, 1932 01:37:30,120 --> 01:37:32,160 Speaker 2: either one of those teams are all four of those 1933 01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:34,600 Speaker 2: teams are playoff bound even with the loss, but the 1934 01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:36,479 Speaker 2: winner will get a first round by, which I think 1935 01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:39,840 Speaker 2: is I think at this, you know, given the link 1936 01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:42,280 Speaker 2: to this season now they start in August now, and 1937 01:37:42,479 --> 01:37:43,880 Speaker 2: for a lot of these teams that be going into 1938 01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:46,880 Speaker 2: their thirteen to fourteen game of the season, I think 1939 01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:48,760 Speaker 2: the first bound round by is a little bit more 1940 01:37:48,760 --> 01:37:52,479 Speaker 2: COVID in that people might realize here's the reason this 1941 01:37:52,520 --> 01:37:54,160 Speaker 2: is all happening, and this is the reason why this 1942 01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:58,440 Speaker 2: is so important. Do you know that if you qualify, 1943 01:37:58,600 --> 01:38:02,280 Speaker 2: you qualify for this tournament, this twelve team tournament. The 1944 01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:04,759 Speaker 2: conferences are going to split a total of one hundred 1945 01:38:04,760 --> 01:38:09,639 Speaker 2: and sixteen million dollars starting for starting with four million 1946 01:38:09,760 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 2: for each school that just makes the playoff and for 1947 01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:15,600 Speaker 2: each school that reaches the quarterfinal. Okay, that's nothing to 1948 01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:18,000 Speaker 2: sneed at Do you think they could use that money? Yes? 1949 01:38:18,040 --> 01:38:21,719 Speaker 2: They can. Now. Even before last Tuesday Nights Rankings revealed 1950 01:38:22,200 --> 01:38:24,679 Speaker 2: there were people campaigning for the playoff spots. It's almost 1951 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:28,160 Speaker 2: like a political race, right the a SEC commissioner Jim Phillips, 1952 01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:30,720 Speaker 2: he made the case for his conference to potentially have 1953 01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:35,559 Speaker 2: multiple bids, particularly if SMU were to lose to Clemson. Now, 1954 01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:40,280 Speaker 2: Clemson's got three losses. Please, if Clemson loses, they're not 1955 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:42,840 Speaker 2: the committee's not taking a four loss team, especially if 1956 01:38:42,840 --> 01:38:46,240 Speaker 2: it's Clemson. But if f SMU were to lose, they're 1957 01:38:46,240 --> 01:38:48,240 Speaker 2: currently ranked number eight. They were to lose to Clemson, 1958 01:38:49,600 --> 01:38:53,320 Speaker 2: I'm guessing Clemson would be in and would they take SMU. 1959 01:38:53,400 --> 01:38:56,120 Speaker 2: I don't know, but the commissioner said, if you're inside 1960 01:38:56,120 --> 01:38:58,439 Speaker 2: that top twelve or so you're projected to be in, 1961 01:38:58,479 --> 01:39:00,599 Speaker 2: it would be very alarming for you. By the way, 1962 01:39:00,600 --> 01:39:03,639 Speaker 2: SMU is currently ranked eighth. To be moved out because 1963 01:39:03,680 --> 01:39:06,559 Speaker 2: you played an extra game, why everyone else is sitting home? 1964 01:39:06,760 --> 01:39:09,560 Speaker 2: That's going to be the new narrative. Do you penalize 1965 01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:13,320 Speaker 2: a team for making it to the conference championship game 1966 01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:16,960 Speaker 2: even if they lose? You cannot quote here's this quote. 1967 01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:19,559 Speaker 2: You cannot and should not be penalized for having to 1968 01:39:19,560 --> 01:39:22,599 Speaker 2: play a thirteenth game after a very long season. If 1969 01:39:22,640 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 2: you qualify for that game, now go to o'lane Kiffin 1970 01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:28,519 Speaker 2: went on Twitter and tweeted a lengthy note, which he 1971 01:39:28,600 --> 01:39:33,920 Speaker 2: tagged the official College Football Playoff account, laying out his 1972 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 2: reasoning for why the Rebels should make the postseason over 1973 01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:42,439 Speaker 2: Alabama and South Carolina. He said, quote, clearly Old Miss 1974 01:39:42,960 --> 01:39:45,960 Speaker 2: should be in the playoff over Alabama, but Bama is 1975 01:39:45,960 --> 01:39:49,080 Speaker 2: the bigger brand and more likely we'll get in over 1976 01:39:49,320 --> 01:39:53,800 Speaker 2: Old Miss. Yeah he didn't sound too better at all, 1977 01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:55,640 Speaker 2: did he. But that's Lane Kiffin for you. But you 1978 01:39:55,640 --> 01:39:59,240 Speaker 2: know what, I'm not so sure he's wrong. He's wrong. 1979 01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:00,800 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have said it following him. I don't think 1980 01:40:00,800 --> 01:40:04,160 Speaker 2: that's a good look. Look a little bitter and that's 1981 01:40:04,200 --> 01:40:05,960 Speaker 2: not a good look. But I'm not so sure he's wrong. 1982 01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:08,200 Speaker 2: He's sticking out for a school. So look, if the 1983 01:40:08,200 --> 01:40:11,200 Speaker 2: playoff were to start today, and we know it doesn't, 1984 01:40:11,360 --> 01:40:14,000 Speaker 2: the seeds would be Oregon number one, Texas number two, 1985 01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:19,439 Speaker 2: SMU number three, Boise number four. Those are your four. 1986 01:40:19,520 --> 01:40:22,240 Speaker 2: Boise I think is stayed in the fourth spot. Oregon 1987 01:40:22,320 --> 01:40:24,360 Speaker 2: has to beat Penn State, SMU is going to have 1988 01:40:24,439 --> 01:40:28,280 Speaker 2: to be Clemson, and Texas will have to be Georgia 1989 01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:31,040 Speaker 2: to keep that. But let's say that just holds. This 1990 01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:32,680 Speaker 2: is where it gets fun. You tell me unite end 1991 01:40:32,720 --> 01:40:36,559 Speaker 2: of this. Starting December twentieth, number nine, Tennessee with face 1992 01:40:36,640 --> 01:40:39,479 Speaker 2: number eight Ohio State, the winner would travel to Oregon. 1993 01:40:39,520 --> 01:40:42,559 Speaker 2: The following week, number twelve, Arizona State with face number 1994 01:40:42,560 --> 01:40:45,599 Speaker 2: five Penn State. The winner would travel to Boise State. 1995 01:40:46,120 --> 01:40:49,800 Speaker 2: The following week Alabama checks in at eleven. They'd face 1996 01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 2: off against Notre Dame, who's currently sixth. They'd get to 1997 01:40:53,280 --> 01:40:57,559 Speaker 2: go to SMU who's third, and finally Indiana, they'd have 1998 01:40:57,600 --> 01:41:01,920 Speaker 2: to go to Georgia. The winner Indiana ten ranked ten 1999 01:41:01,960 --> 01:41:07,960 Speaker 2: seeded Georgia seventh, would go play Texas. That to mention that, 2000 01:41:08,000 --> 01:41:10,760 Speaker 2: so Georgia, Texas might have to play Georgia for the 2001 01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,080 Speaker 2: third time in the season. Ohio State might have to 2002 01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:15,720 Speaker 2: play Oregon for a second time. This is gonna get fun, 2003 01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:18,000 Speaker 2: It's gonna get interesting, and yeah, there's gonna be arguments, 2004 01:41:18,360 --> 01:41:21,920 Speaker 2: but that's what happens. It's not perfect, but it's better 2005 01:41:21,960 --> 01:41:25,360 Speaker 2: than it was. The truth of the matter is is 2006 01:41:25,439 --> 01:41:28,080 Speaker 2: that you have a situation now for at least it's 2007 01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:32,599 Speaker 2: championship based. I hated the prior format. I always called 2008 01:41:32,640 --> 01:41:37,759 Speaker 2: it the made for TV Invitational. You had four teams 2009 01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:41,599 Speaker 2: and you had five power conferences. Insert your own Florida 2010 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:43,640 Speaker 2: state comment here. Now at least they got rid of that. 2011 01:41:44,120 --> 01:41:46,320 Speaker 2: At the end of the show, I will share with 2012 01:41:46,360 --> 01:41:50,599 Speaker 2: you one last time which of the championship games. There's 2013 01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:56,240 Speaker 2: five conference championship games on Saturday, and the stakes are simple, 2014 01:41:56,920 --> 01:41:59,880 Speaker 2: and I will explain to you how each one of 2015 01:41:59,880 --> 01:42:04,559 Speaker 2: the will determine what happens when the when the committee 2016 01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:08,160 Speaker 2: makes your final selections on Sunday morning. We covered it all, 2017 01:42:08,200 --> 01:42:11,960 Speaker 2: including the other football spilled, fut b o L It's time, 2018 01:42:12,320 --> 01:42:14,240 Speaker 2: Chris Purfetts, World of Soccer. 2019 01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:31,760 Speaker 4: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drum. It's 2020 01:42:31,800 --> 01:42:34,599 Speaker 4: all here in this report from the World of. 2021 01:42:34,600 --> 01:42:36,080 Speaker 1: Soccer, Bernie. 2022 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:38,240 Speaker 24: We got a lot to talk about as the MLS 2023 01:42:38,280 --> 01:42:41,479 Speaker 24: season is about to end. The MLS Cup Playoff is 2024 01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:47,320 Speaker 24: on Saturday for PM eastern one o'clock Pacific as La 2025 01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:52,280 Speaker 24: Galaxy takes on the New York Red Bulls in Carson, California. 2026 01:42:53,000 --> 01:42:55,880 Speaker 24: This has been a very surprising MLS Cup playoffs, a 2027 01:42:56,040 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 24: very topsy turvy one that saw the Inter Miami the 2028 01:43:00,439 --> 01:43:04,519 Speaker 24: prohibitive favorite through this entire MLS Cup playff getting knocked 2029 01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:08,880 Speaker 24: out in round one by Atlanta United in three in 2030 01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:12,400 Speaker 24: three games. Atlanta had to come through the wild card 2031 01:43:12,400 --> 01:43:15,920 Speaker 24: around as the number nine seed and beat Miami, then 2032 01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:19,559 Speaker 24: probably went off on to lose to Orlando City. And 2033 01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:22,720 Speaker 24: the other surprise than being from the other side of 2034 01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:27,280 Speaker 24: the bracket a seven seed Red Bull New York smashing Columbus, 2035 01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:31,880 Speaker 24: the defending champion in two games, then turning around beating 2036 01:43:31,960 --> 01:43:35,200 Speaker 24: New York City fceed beating Orlando to make it to 2037 01:43:35,240 --> 01:43:37,960 Speaker 24: the final. It's a bit of a miraculous turn on 2038 01:43:38,160 --> 01:43:41,519 Speaker 24: for the Red Bulls. They had only one victory in 2039 01:43:41,560 --> 01:43:47,360 Speaker 24: their final eleven matches across all competitions, really stumbling into 2040 01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:51,599 Speaker 24: these playoffs almost completely drunk, not sure what they were doing, 2041 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,679 Speaker 24: and somehow defied all those odds and they have become 2042 01:43:55,720 --> 01:43:59,400 Speaker 24: the lowest seeded team ever to reach the MLS Cup final. 2043 01:44:00,200 --> 01:44:03,519 Speaker 24: Head coach Sando Schwarz is a first year at the 2044 01:44:03,560 --> 01:44:06,800 Speaker 24: helmet already at the Cup, and it has been one 2045 01:44:06,840 --> 01:44:09,759 Speaker 24: of those things that just defies a lot of reason 2046 01:44:09,840 --> 01:44:13,040 Speaker 24: for Red Bulls. They are averaging a forty four point 2047 01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:16,840 Speaker 24: five percent possession in the regular season and fewer than 2048 01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:20,519 Speaker 24: forty percent in these playoffs, and yet somehow when they 2049 01:44:20,520 --> 01:44:25,080 Speaker 24: win possession, it's usually an advantage position, advantageous positions where 2050 01:44:25,120 --> 01:44:28,320 Speaker 24: they're able to just make scoring opportunities work for them 2051 01:44:28,680 --> 01:44:32,519 Speaker 24: and just keeps the opponent out of their own goal. 2052 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:35,160 Speaker 24: And yet on the flip side, LA Galaxy is one 2053 01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:38,240 Speaker 24: of those teams that has just played incredibly well all year, 2054 01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:43,640 Speaker 24: really stealing the stage from their younger counterpart, LAFC, which was, 2055 01:44:43,960 --> 01:44:47,760 Speaker 24: by and by MLS Cups and MLS Cup appearances a 2056 01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:52,880 Speaker 24: much suddenly let's just say, popular team in LA. It 2057 01:44:52,920 --> 01:44:56,320 Speaker 24: certainly helps they actually play in near the Coliseum near 2058 01:44:56,479 --> 01:45:01,160 Speaker 24: downtown Los Angeles, near usc in the heart of Los 2059 01:45:01,200 --> 01:45:03,559 Speaker 24: Angeles versus Carson, which is a bit of a drive 2060 01:45:03,640 --> 01:45:05,960 Speaker 24: for most people out there. It helps that they had 2061 01:45:06,040 --> 01:45:08,599 Speaker 24: a passionate fan base and a lot of stars coming 2062 01:45:08,600 --> 01:45:13,320 Speaker 24: through and including Carlos Vella and Gareth Bale. So there 2063 01:45:13,400 --> 01:45:16,679 Speaker 24: was a moment where Galaxy really was kind of forgotten about. 2064 01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:19,679 Speaker 24: Not so this year. Up until the final days where 2065 01:45:19,840 --> 01:45:22,960 Speaker 24: LAFC tied them on points and were able to take 2066 01:45:22,960 --> 01:45:26,880 Speaker 24: the Western Conference thrown from them. Galaxy was leading the chase. 2067 01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:29,040 Speaker 24: They were one of those teams out there that looked 2068 01:45:29,080 --> 01:45:31,080 Speaker 24: like they were going to be running away and be 2069 01:45:31,200 --> 01:45:35,200 Speaker 24: ready to play into Miami come MLS Cup time, and 2070 01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:39,320 Speaker 24: indeed they have been phenomenal, a nineteen goal differential in 2071 01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:44,080 Speaker 24: the regular season. Twe of those goals coming from Deon Yovelic. 2072 01:45:44,680 --> 01:45:46,360 Speaker 24: How our bad news came down from them as they 2073 01:45:46,400 --> 01:45:50,200 Speaker 24: will be missing Ricky Pooge, their midfielder who has seventeen 2074 01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:53,600 Speaker 24: goals to his own name from the season and just 2075 01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:56,719 Speaker 24: a really bad blow and hoping that they can maybe 2076 01:45:56,760 --> 01:45:59,479 Speaker 24: get back Marco Reese who is part of the squad 2077 01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:03,680 Speaker 24: and he's been Marco Reese has been one of those 2078 01:46:03,680 --> 01:46:05,840 Speaker 24: players you'd watch play in Germany for a really long 2079 01:46:05,880 --> 01:46:08,240 Speaker 24: time and you're wondering how this guy doesn't have any 2080 01:46:08,320 --> 01:46:09,000 Speaker 24: hardware to. 2081 01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:10,160 Speaker 4: His name whatsoever. 2082 01:46:10,439 --> 01:46:13,320 Speaker 24: Borussia Dortmund obviously being the brides, may never the bride 2083 01:46:13,320 --> 01:46:15,920 Speaker 24: for so long and really seeking some glory and this 2084 01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 24: may be his chance to do so. If he is 2085 01:46:18,560 --> 01:46:21,840 Speaker 24: able to suit up and play, we will see if 2086 01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:25,400 Speaker 24: he's going to be ready. Galaxy coach Greg Vaney said 2087 01:46:25,439 --> 01:46:30,280 Speaker 24: that Marco had trained in full back on Friday. He 2088 01:46:30,320 --> 01:46:33,920 Speaker 24: should be ready to go. He's you know, so this 2089 01:46:33,960 --> 01:46:37,559 Speaker 24: could be the reinforcements Galaxy really needs to stave off 2090 01:46:37,640 --> 01:46:42,479 Speaker 24: these feisty, feisty Red Bulls. Personally, my money is once 2091 01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:45,240 Speaker 24: again on a Los Angeles team. I think Galaxy has 2092 01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:48,080 Speaker 24: it this year and will wait to see what happens 2093 01:46:48,320 --> 01:46:51,320 Speaker 24: if they can really lift the MLS Cup and or 2094 01:46:51,360 --> 01:46:53,439 Speaker 24: mind LA that there is a second team in town 2095 01:46:53,479 --> 01:46:56,160 Speaker 24: and they should not be disrespected that they are the 2096 01:46:56,200 --> 01:47:00,559 Speaker 24: ones with the history and now the players to maybe 2097 01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:04,280 Speaker 24: tried to lift their first MLS Cup in ten years. 2098 01:47:05,080 --> 01:47:07,559 Speaker 24: There was another bit of MLS news we should talk about, 2099 01:47:07,600 --> 01:47:10,040 Speaker 24: and that was the awarding of the MVP, and there 2100 01:47:10,160 --> 01:47:12,080 Speaker 24: was a little bit of there was a few eyes 2101 01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:15,679 Speaker 24: that were raised when it was Leonel Messi who took 2102 01:47:15,680 --> 01:47:17,759 Speaker 24: her home on the MVP, And you might be thinking 2103 01:47:17,760 --> 01:47:21,200 Speaker 24: to yourself, it's Leonel Messi. He clearly deserves the MVP. 2104 01:47:21,560 --> 01:47:23,760 Speaker 24: But a lot of that conversation comes from the fact 2105 01:47:23,800 --> 01:47:27,280 Speaker 24: that really only playing in fifty five percent of Inter 2106 01:47:27,400 --> 01:47:32,280 Speaker 24: Miami's games is a precipitously low number to really consider 2107 01:47:32,400 --> 01:47:35,760 Speaker 24: for anyone who is a MVP in any sport. If 2108 01:47:35,800 --> 01:47:37,559 Speaker 24: I told you that a player in the NBA only 2109 01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:39,840 Speaker 24: played about half the games, you'd say, no way they 2110 01:47:39,880 --> 01:47:42,799 Speaker 24: could be MVP, And if I told you a quarterback 2111 01:47:42,840 --> 01:47:45,559 Speaker 24: only played in half the games of the National Football League, 2112 01:47:45,560 --> 01:47:48,160 Speaker 24: no way they could be MVP. But that's just kind 2113 01:47:48,200 --> 01:47:51,000 Speaker 24: of what the impact of Messi is. I feel like 2114 01:47:51,040 --> 01:47:54,160 Speaker 24: there's good cases on where he deserves it, and I 2115 01:47:54,200 --> 01:47:58,200 Speaker 24: also deeply respect the case that he just did not 2116 01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:01,519 Speaker 24: play enough to really go for the award. But let 2117 01:48:01,520 --> 01:48:04,760 Speaker 24: me go down this is that without Lionel Messi his 2118 01:48:05,040 --> 01:48:10,000 Speaker 24: thirty six goal contributions twenty goals sixteen assists, the most 2119 01:48:10,040 --> 01:48:14,559 Speaker 24: of any player in MLS this season, the second closest 2120 01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:20,200 Speaker 24: with probably Luciano Acosta for FC Cincinnati. But it really, 2121 01:48:20,880 --> 01:48:23,200 Speaker 24: it really must be stressed that I do not believe 2122 01:48:23,240 --> 01:48:26,280 Speaker 24: Inter Miami is the one who's lifting the supporter shield 2123 01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:28,640 Speaker 24: or doing all of these amazing things they did in 2124 01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:32,360 Speaker 24: the regular season without Lionel Messi playing these games. 2125 01:48:32,600 --> 01:48:33,679 Speaker 1: And yes, maybe. 2126 01:48:33,439 --> 01:48:34,960 Speaker 24: Those numbers could be a lot bigger if he had 2127 01:48:34,960 --> 01:48:36,840 Speaker 24: played more of than We're also talking about a man 2128 01:48:36,960 --> 01:48:39,320 Speaker 24: who's on the tail end of things, and ultimately, at 2129 01:48:39,320 --> 01:48:41,200 Speaker 24: the end of the day, we have to say it, 2130 01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:45,480 Speaker 24: this has been about Lionel Messi coming to MLS. Leonel 2131 01:48:45,760 --> 01:48:48,439 Speaker 24: MLSCI if you will, So it makes sense that the 2132 01:48:48,520 --> 01:48:50,600 Speaker 24: league would work very hard to make sure that he 2133 01:48:50,640 --> 01:48:53,120 Speaker 24: gets the trophy at the end of this and he's 2134 01:48:53,280 --> 01:48:55,880 Speaker 24: been the poster child for this league. Maybe he is 2135 01:48:55,920 --> 01:48:58,120 Speaker 24: not the most valuable player as far as on field 2136 01:48:58,200 --> 01:49:03,160 Speaker 24: contributions before this league raising the eyebrows of everyone around there, 2137 01:49:03,520 --> 01:49:06,880 Speaker 24: trying to make it much more of a home home 2138 01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:10,400 Speaker 24: name to be recognized in the world of soccer. Yeah, 2139 01:49:10,400 --> 01:49:12,679 Speaker 24: I could understand that for him, He's still doing amazing 2140 01:49:12,760 --> 01:49:16,360 Speaker 24: things out here even as his rival Christiano Ronaldo does 2141 01:49:16,360 --> 01:49:19,240 Speaker 24: the same thing in Saudi Arabia. That's gonna do it 2142 01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:21,360 Speaker 24: for the world of soccer. Bernie enjoyed the MLS Cup 2143 01:49:21,400 --> 01:49:24,400 Speaker 24: on Saturday, and we'll break it all down next time 2144 01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:25,479 Speaker 24: on the World of Soccer. 2145 01:49:25,960 --> 01:49:28,400 Speaker 2: There you have it.

They've been with me since eleven pm 2183 01:51:26,040 --> 01:51:29,920 Speaker 2: Pacific on Saturday night. Mark and Brianna appreciate all the 2184 01:51:29,920 --> 01:51:32,840 Speaker 2: hard work keeping us glued together, keeping us on the air, 2185 01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:35,799 Speaker 2: turning all the dials so we can bring this show 2186 01:51:36,720 --> 01:51:40,960 Speaker 2: to a grateful nation. All right. As I mentioned, there 2187 01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:45,240 Speaker 2: are nine college football championship games actually being played this week, 2188 01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:48,680 Speaker 2: and there were a couple. Friday night, Army beat Tulane 2189 01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:53,360 Speaker 2: thirty five to fourteen. The Boise State UNLV game Boise 2190 01:51:53,840 --> 01:51:56,120 Speaker 2: holds serve. They beat them on the blue turf twenty 2191 01:51:56,120 --> 01:51:59,559 Speaker 2: one to seven. They grab a college football playoff spot 2192 01:52:00,400 --> 01:52:02,760 Speaker 2: unless the committee changes their mind. I don't know what 2193 01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:05,519 Speaker 2: it could change. I suppose right now it looks like 2194 01:52:05,520 --> 01:52:07,639 Speaker 2: they got a number four seed, which means that even 2195 01:52:07,720 --> 01:52:12,800 Speaker 2: have a buy. But we're heading into a weekend now 2196 01:52:12,840 --> 01:52:16,439 Speaker 2: where there's still some things to be decided. All right, 2197 01:52:17,080 --> 01:52:20,760 Speaker 2: we're coming off of what a week fourteen is in 2198 01:52:20,760 --> 01:52:23,640 Speaker 2: the books. There were some big upsets last weekend that 2199 01:52:24,160 --> 01:52:28,599 Speaker 2: that had an impact on last Tuesday's latest college football 2200 01:52:28,600 --> 01:52:33,240 Speaker 2: playoff rankings. And you know, some teams slip, some teams arose. 2201 01:52:33,840 --> 01:52:36,680 Speaker 2: But now you turn your eyes to Saturday for the 2202 01:52:36,720 --> 01:52:41,679 Speaker 2: remaining conference championship games. This is the final test that's 2203 01:52:41,720 --> 01:52:46,200 Speaker 2: going to determine which twelve teams are actually contenders or pretenders, 2204 01:52:46,720 --> 01:52:49,960 Speaker 2: which you'll get a buye, which you'll get find their 2205 01:52:50,000 --> 01:52:54,240 Speaker 2: way into the tournament, and you know which won't. Right, 2206 01:52:54,400 --> 01:52:59,360 Speaker 2: simple as that, five of the nine conference championship games 2207 01:52:59,360 --> 01:53:02,120 Speaker 2: that were played, you know, schedule we played Friday or Saturday, 2208 01:53:02,360 --> 01:53:04,200 Speaker 2: have the direct impact. I've already told you about the 2209 01:53:04,200 --> 01:53:06,360 Speaker 2: Mountain West game, by the way, tip of the cap. 2210 01:53:06,400 --> 01:53:09,599 Speaker 2: There are other games too, Marshall, he's going to play, 2211 01:53:09,720 --> 01:53:15,960 Speaker 2: you know, Louisiana Tech, the Raging Cajun's Tulane. They played Army, 2212 01:53:15,840 --> 01:53:19,000 Speaker 2: they got beat. I believe Miami of Ohio will play 2213 01:53:19,080 --> 01:53:24,040 Speaker 2: the Ohio University, not the Ohio State University, Jackson State. 2214 01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:28,800 Speaker 2: I believe they played Friday night as well. But the 2215 01:53:29,120 --> 01:53:31,679 Speaker 2: big boys, we have to jump to the big boys. Okay, 2216 01:53:31,720 --> 01:53:35,240 Speaker 2: you got Texas, Georgia, you got Clemson, SMU, you got 2217 01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:39,600 Speaker 2: Penn State, Oregon, You've got Iowa State, Arizona State. So 2218 01:53:39,680 --> 01:53:41,479 Speaker 2: let's take a look at this. Which of these conference 2219 01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:45,160 Speaker 2: championship games is going to have the most impact on 2220 01:53:45,160 --> 01:53:48,920 Speaker 2: the College football playoff Let's start with Clemson and SMU. 2221 01:53:49,000 --> 01:53:52,680 Speaker 2: That might be the most confusing. Clemson's a three lost team, 2222 01:53:53,080 --> 01:53:54,840 Speaker 2: and a couple of weeks ago, it was thought that 2223 01:53:54,920 --> 01:53:58,360 Speaker 2: the winner of this game, SMU's you know, heads into 2224 01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:01,479 Speaker 2: the game Saturday eleven and one. I believe they're two 2225 01:54:01,560 --> 01:54:07,320 Speaker 2: and a half point favorite over over Clemson. So match 2226 01:54:07,400 --> 01:54:10,400 Speaker 2: up a strength versus strength. Clemson's got a very good 2227 01:54:10,479 --> 01:54:13,400 Speaker 2: rushing attack, the best in the ACC. SMU's got the 2228 01:54:13,479 --> 01:54:16,559 Speaker 2: top rushing defense. This is gonna be a good game. 2229 01:54:16,640 --> 01:54:19,640 Speaker 2: It'll be it'll be an outstanding game. A couple of 2230 01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:21,719 Speaker 2: weeks ago, you thought maybe the loser of this game 2231 01:54:21,800 --> 01:54:24,400 Speaker 2: would be safely in the playoff bracket. But if Clemson loses, 2232 01:54:24,400 --> 01:54:27,760 Speaker 2: that's her fourth loss. The committee is not going to 2233 01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:29,920 Speaker 2: consider a four loss Clemson team. You can bank on 2234 01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:33,400 Speaker 2: that that broaches the possibility of a three loss SEC 2235 01:54:33,600 --> 01:54:36,040 Speaker 2: team getting one of the final that large bids. We've 2236 01:54:36,040 --> 01:54:38,040 Speaker 2: already talked about Alabama. I think you know where we're 2237 01:54:38,080 --> 01:54:41,000 Speaker 2: going with that. Now, that's the thing. What if SMU loses, 2238 01:54:41,960 --> 01:54:45,240 Speaker 2: might they find their way in? But you can thank 2239 01:54:45,280 --> 01:54:50,080 Speaker 2: Miami after they blewed against Syracuse last Saturday. That gave 2240 01:54:50,120 --> 01:54:53,440 Speaker 2: Clemson the back door open. They got their game in Charlotte. 2241 01:54:54,000 --> 01:54:56,040 Speaker 2: So there you have it. But Clemson's gonna have to win. 2242 01:54:56,120 --> 01:54:58,320 Speaker 2: They can't. They can't lose and find their way in. 2243 01:54:58,400 --> 01:55:02,600 Speaker 2: So it appears, you know, if the favorite SMU cold 2244 01:55:02,600 --> 01:55:05,640 Speaker 2: servant wins this game, they'll be in. They'll be the 2245 01:55:05,680 --> 01:55:09,280 Speaker 2: acc entrant. Now you've got the Big twelve championship game 2246 01:55:09,320 --> 01:55:12,800 Speaker 2: Arizona State and Iowa State. This is much simpler. This 2247 01:55:12,840 --> 01:55:16,720 Speaker 2: game will likely determine the seed check that this okay, 2248 01:55:16,800 --> 01:55:21,600 Speaker 2: This game will likely determine that one of these teams 2249 01:55:21,640 --> 01:55:23,080 Speaker 2: will be in the playoff and the other will be 2250 01:55:23,080 --> 01:55:26,640 Speaker 2: going home. But the likelihood is whoever wins this game 2251 01:55:26,640 --> 01:55:29,320 Speaker 2: will be the twelfth seed in the bracket no matter 2252 01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:32,360 Speaker 2: what happens, irrespective of the rest of the tournament games 2253 01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:35,480 Speaker 2: or the rest of the championship games played on Saturday. Okay, Now, 2254 01:55:35,480 --> 01:55:38,560 Speaker 2: the scenarios where the Big Twelve champion can reach as 2255 01:55:38,600 --> 01:55:41,720 Speaker 2: high as the four seed or a first round by 2256 01:55:42,480 --> 01:55:44,760 Speaker 2: but I don't think that could happen now because I 2257 01:55:44,760 --> 01:55:49,440 Speaker 2: think I think, I really think that based on what 2258 01:55:49,560 --> 01:55:52,280 Speaker 2: I think I've seen in a twelve and one. Boise 2259 01:55:52,360 --> 01:55:54,480 Speaker 2: State team's going to lock down on that number four seed, 2260 01:55:55,200 --> 01:55:56,760 Speaker 2: all right, And I don't think you'll see a Big 2261 01:55:56,800 --> 01:55:59,640 Speaker 2: twelve team on seat you know, the sec of the 2262 01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:04,040 Speaker 2: Big ten. And you get the point. Okay, Iowa State wins, 2263 01:56:04,760 --> 01:56:07,680 Speaker 2: they're in the twelfth seat. Arizona State wins, They're in 2264 01:56:07,720 --> 01:56:10,160 Speaker 2: the twelfth seat. Now, this is a fascinating game because 2265 01:56:10,160 --> 01:56:11,680 Speaker 2: Arizona State's playing with house money. 2266 01:56:11,720 --> 01:56:11,920 Speaker 3: Man. 2267 01:56:12,360 --> 01:56:14,200 Speaker 2: They were picked to finish last in the Big twelve 2268 01:56:14,200 --> 01:56:18,200 Speaker 2: preseason media poll. Imagine that one went away, one went 2269 01:56:18,240 --> 01:56:23,040 Speaker 2: away from a chance to win a national championship. And 2270 01:56:23,280 --> 01:56:28,560 Speaker 2: this is just craziness. It's good craziness, right Arizona State. 2271 01:56:29,640 --> 01:56:32,200 Speaker 2: I believe they've ripped off five wins in a row 2272 01:56:32,720 --> 01:56:36,240 Speaker 2: to get to this championship appearance. And Iowa State lost 2273 01:56:36,240 --> 01:56:39,640 Speaker 2: two games in November and they're still alive to be 2274 01:56:39,680 --> 01:56:43,440 Speaker 2: a part of this. So look, this is another interesting matchup. 2275 01:56:43,720 --> 01:56:46,120 Speaker 2: The Cyclones defense has been tremendous all season. They only 2276 01:56:46,080 --> 01:56:49,760 Speaker 2: allowed nineteen points a game. They got a great passing defense, 2277 01:56:50,000 --> 01:56:53,640 Speaker 2: but Arizona State's passing attack is not great. Here's the kicker. 2278 01:56:54,400 --> 01:56:56,440 Speaker 2: Arizona State can really run the ball. I think they're 2279 01:56:56,440 --> 01:56:58,440 Speaker 2: going to dominate the line of scrimmage in this game. 2280 01:56:58,480 --> 01:57:01,360 Speaker 2: I would not be surprised throne at Arizona State wins. 2281 01:57:01,880 --> 01:57:05,080 Speaker 2: Texas Georgia. All right, this is the playoff hopes of 2282 01:57:05,120 --> 01:57:08,680 Speaker 2: the SEC Championship. Both teams are getting in. One team 2283 01:57:08,720 --> 01:57:10,480 Speaker 2: will get a buy one team will have to play. 2284 01:57:11,000 --> 01:57:13,600 Speaker 2: Georgia will also do one or two things. Either the 2285 01:57:13,640 --> 01:57:15,440 Speaker 2: Dogs drop out of the field, which I do not 2286 01:57:15,680 --> 01:57:19,960 Speaker 2: think they will do. Okay, they would go against the 2287 01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:24,480 Speaker 2: committee's long standing policy of rewarding conference championship game appearances. 2288 01:57:24,480 --> 01:57:27,240 Speaker 2: You can't really penalize Georgia for being in the conference 2289 01:57:27,280 --> 01:57:30,960 Speaker 2: championship game, right A bubble team like Bama or South 2290 01:57:31,000 --> 01:57:32,839 Speaker 2: Carolina could be left out. But this is a Texas 2291 01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:36,400 Speaker 2: revenge game that would solidify the Longhorns in their position 2292 01:57:36,520 --> 01:57:38,800 Speaker 2: in the top four. But if Texas loses a second game, 2293 01:57:38,800 --> 01:57:43,480 Speaker 2: to Georgia. Okay, that could earn the Crimson tie another bid. 2294 01:57:44,040 --> 01:57:47,480 Speaker 2: But Texas is in. Okay, they're both in. It's just 2295 01:57:47,520 --> 01:57:49,560 Speaker 2: a matter of who gets the bid. Check that does 2296 01:57:49,600 --> 01:57:50,840 Speaker 2: a matter of who gets to buy and who has 2297 01:57:50,880 --> 01:57:53,640 Speaker 2: to play Week one. Finally, the Big Ten Championship game 2298 01:57:53,640 --> 01:57:56,600 Speaker 2: Oregon twelve to zero Penn State. The winner likely clinches 2299 01:57:56,640 --> 01:57:59,920 Speaker 2: the number one seed in the entire bracket. The loser might. 2300 01:58:00,000 --> 01:58:02,240 Speaker 2: We still host the first round matchup game though, however, 2301 01:58:02,480 --> 01:58:06,160 Speaker 2: that's not entirely interchangeable. If Oregon loses, I think the 2302 01:58:06,240 --> 01:58:08,200 Speaker 2: Ducks could fall as far as number five. A Penn 2303 01:58:08,200 --> 01:58:10,800 Speaker 2: State loss, they could fall the number eight anyway you 2304 01:58:10,880 --> 01:58:14,520 Speaker 2: slice it. Both teams are assured a playoff field spots. 2305 01:58:14,520 --> 01:58:16,960 Speaker 2: There's no scenario where anyone misses out with a loss. 2306 01:58:17,520 --> 01:58:21,800 Speaker 2: But I gotta tell you, Buckeye is losing to Michigan 2307 01:58:22,320 --> 01:58:24,600 Speaker 2: week fourteen. One Big Ten team could be knocked out 2308 01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:26,400 Speaker 2: of the field. We have to see what happens. So 2309 01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:29,720 Speaker 2: we'll be watching Saturday, and I'll be back on these 2310 01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:33,840 Speaker 2: airwaves Saturday night, eleven PM with plenty more hijinks on 2311 01:58:33,880 --> 01:58:36,440 Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show.
