1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 2: Welcome man, everybody, Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Saturday, Fox 3 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,719 Speaker 2: Football Saturday. As a matter of fact, Eric Torris, Jason Martin, 4 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 2: we are broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. 5 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: It is eleven pm Eastern time. First off, I think 6 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 2: I speak for J mart when I say hope we 7 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 2: appreciate everybody sticking with us. Last Saturday feels like a 8 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: lifetime ago, but we were on during the thrilling Game 9 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: seven of the World Series. J Martin, a little bit 10 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: of a quieter day in college football. I'll say this. 11 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 2: You know, all of the crazy firings are fun for 12 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 2: content in real time, but now you just got a 13 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 2: bunch of sad fan bases that I don't even know 14 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 2: how much they care. Florida just got destroyed by Kentucky 15 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: Alabama putting the finishing touches. Excuse me on LSU. Penn 16 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 2: State fall is essentially as time expired and a thriller 17 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 2: against Indiana. But you know, I mean, listen, I mean this, 18 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: This day was supposed to be defined by a pair 19 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 2: of playoff teams from last year, Penn State, Indiana Alabama. LSU. 20 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: That's one of the great rivalries that we all love. 21 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: Not a lot on the docket today, But I hope 22 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: you're doing well, my man. And uh yeah, just that 23 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,199 Speaker 2: that's tours is big take it. It's fun to watch 24 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 2: these guys get fun. It's not fun to watch people 25 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: get fired, but it is what it is. 26 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 3: Uh. 27 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: But then it just leaves a lot of sad fan 28 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: bases and and you know, not the results that we're expecting. 29 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: How you doing them? 30 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 3: Now? Yeah, yeah, there were there were a couple of 31 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 3: near misses today and that's not too bad. But yeah, 32 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 3: I think there's it's it's a little. 33 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 4: Bit of the calm before the storm. 34 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 3: But we're also having we're going through a winning process 35 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 3: in college football, right We're starting to kind of see 36 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: who's real and who's not. And some of the teams 37 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 3: that were kind of borderline that you were just sort 38 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 3: of waiting to see when them kind of playing it 39 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 3: dangerously was going to catch them, we're seeing a couple 40 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 3: of those things happen. Like Virginia, for example, the acc 41 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: is a complete mess, and we're just seeing kind of 42 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 3: the cream of the croper eyes where we know who 43 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 3: is good, I think at this point, and we know 44 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 3: who really has a chance. Not in terms of making 45 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 3: the playoff. There's still a lot of teams that could 46 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: potentially make it if things were to fall their way, 47 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 3: But in terms of teams that you really look at 48 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 3: and say this team could make a run, I think 49 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: that that number is starting to get a bit smaller. 50 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's actually a great point by you 51 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 2: is that the first college football playoff ranking came out 52 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: this week, and you know, next week is really where 53 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,399 Speaker 2: the herd. It's gonna be thin one way or the other. 54 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: We think Oklahoma travels to Alabama, Texas plays Georgia, and 55 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 2: so you know, if Georgia or if Texas and Alabama 56 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 2: or Texas and Oklahoma excuse me, lose, then that's two 57 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: teams that conceivably would probably be on the outside looking in. 58 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: I guess in theory, if either or both won, then 59 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: all of a sudden it makes things a lot more interesting. 60 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: But uh yeah, not, you know, for people just joining us, 61 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: not a ton of upsets. I guess let's just talk 62 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 2: really quickly. Alabama final in Tuscaloosa. They take care of LSU. 63 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: You know, I'll say this feels like it felt like, honestly, 64 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 2: like probably the least hyped LSU Bama game of Oh yeah, yeah, guy, 65 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: did you have anything to say on this? 66 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 4: Nothing massive? 67 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 3: No, I mean, I'm not surprised that it was fairly close. 68 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 3: Just that's the way these games often have seemed to be. 69 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: I think the difference was LSU appeared to be the 70 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 3: team that they were with less miles where it was 71 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: like a nine to three kind of game when these 72 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: two teams played, and Alabama still looks like a team 73 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 3: that has a bit of an offense. Still don't think 74 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 3: they run the ball particularly well, but the quarterback doesn't 75 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 3: make a ton of mistakes, and they're just just enough 76 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 3: weaponry for him to get the football too that that's 77 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 3: generally gonna be enough for them. When you look at LSU, 78 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 3: like their offense is just almost nonexistent. It doesn't matter 79 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 3: who's playing quarterback. I heard Greg McElroy saying on the broadcast, 80 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 3: He's not wrong. The offensive line is just an atrocity. 81 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 3: It is amazing that that is the offensive line that 82 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 3: that LSU is fielding and has fielded throughout much of 83 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 3: this season. I know they've dealt with some injuries, but 84 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 3: at the same time, like boy, like the quarterback has 85 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 3: no shot even though I'm not a big nuff Meyer 86 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: guy and I don't really believe in him at the 87 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 3: next level, be glad for him to prove me wrong. 88 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 3: But nobody is going to succeed with an O line 89 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 3: as futud as LSU's has been this year. 90 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was one thing prior to Brian Kelly getting fired. 91 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 2: I remember saying this in real time, is like, it's 92 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,799 Speaker 2: wild that that dude basically made his entire career off 93 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 2: of great offensive line play a Notre name, right, And 94 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 2: it's like, ye, like that was the one thing that 95 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 2: you you could count on at Notre Dame from Brian Kelly. 96 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 2: They were gonna play. They were gonna be great in 97 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: the trenches. They weren't gonna be great at the skill positions. 98 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: And by the way, that was actually why Brian Kelly 99 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: took the LSU job. He's like, well, if I could 100 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: do this with the limited, you know, skill talent at 101 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: Notre Dame, imagine what I could do with the O 102 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: lines that I've developed with the talent that they have. 103 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 2: So that to me was as surprising as anything. And 104 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 2: I think, you know, more than anything, it's why he 105 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 2: got fired. I'll say this like I'm with you. I 106 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 2: have never been a Garrett Nusm, myyer fan. I know 107 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: you haven't either, to be clear, but it's weird because 108 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 2: he isn't good. He was also eighteen of twenty one 109 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 2: passing today. Like it's just an I think increasingly, you know, 110 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 2: I think Penn State's probably a little bit of a 111 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: different deal because you know, Penn State, Drew Roller gets 112 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 2: hurt whatever. But like you look at the Florida result, 113 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 2: you look at the LSU result, it's just like just 114 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 2: blow it up, like just blow it up and start. 115 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: I don't know, it's just with LSU. I don't know why. 116 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 2: I guess the defense is pretty good. 117 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 3: But I don't know what I though. 118 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying is like, and I think I 119 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: said this a few weeks ago, as I said, you know, 120 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 2: the offense was bad, but I thought the defense was 121 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 2: even a little bit overrated, because if you looked early statistically, 122 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: they were you know, whatever in every category. But it's like, Okay, 123 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: they beat a lousy Florida team, they beat a lousy 124 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: Clemson team, and so I just you know, we're gonna 125 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,119 Speaker 2: spend the next few weeks talking about who's the next 126 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 2: coach here, who's the next coach there? But it's like 127 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 2: ls I don't know what LSU does well, And I'll 128 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 2: take it a step further. I wasn't trying to make 129 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 2: this a Florida segment, but Florida goes to Kentucky and loses, 130 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: crushed thirty eight to seven. Rushed thirty eight, by the way, 131 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 2: the first time that Mark Stoops has ever made the 132 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 2: opening segment of this show, except last year when he 133 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: punted like on his own forty two or whatever. But anyway, yeah, yeah, 134 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 2: that's right. Yeah, I was gonna say, dude's probably you know, 135 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: we talked about all these guys that get fired. You know, 136 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: Mark Stoops was a guy that was trending towards probably 137 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: losing his job. They're now on a two game SEC 138 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,239 Speaker 2: wins streak. They're at four and five. They played Tennessee 139 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: Tech next week, so they'll be five and five going 140 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: into their final two. So this is not a Mark 141 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: Stoops segment, but credit to him. But my goodness, Florida 142 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 2: looked bad. I'm just kind of vamping right now. J Mart. 143 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 2: I have nothing specific about these two teams. I just 144 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 2: cannot believe how bad those two teams are specifically, and 145 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 2: as we start talking about who's next, what's next, it's 146 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: like both these both these teams, both these programs just 147 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,679 Speaker 2: have a big, massive cleanup to do with whatever's next. 148 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 3: Look, it's hard to win. Okay, it's hard to win 149 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: in college football. We're not here to say that it's not. 150 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 3: But you get paid a lot of money to win, 151 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: and a lot of people get paid a ton of 152 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 3: money to make these decisions as to who is going 153 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 3: to be hired that is going to help take a 154 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 3: program to the next level. And you look at Florida 155 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 3: and LSU and it just hasn't gone very well recently. 156 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 3: The hires did not work at Florida, multiple hires in 157 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 3: a row. You've seen that at some programs. They're just 158 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 3: waiting for the right hire and you can turn it 159 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 3: around relatively quickly. We've seen that now in the NIL 160 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 3: era and with the transfer portal and all of kind 161 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,119 Speaker 3: of the new toys that a coach has to play 162 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 3: with when he comes in. 163 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 4: He didn't have to build it. 164 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 3: Straight up through recruiting, and it takes three years Florida 165 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 3: to become his roster. That's not really the way it 166 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 3: is anymore. But Florida has just done a poor job 167 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 3: at finding the guy that fits that program, that fits 168 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 3: that community, that does have that pipeline and can get 169 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 3: it done on Saturdays, and LSU increasingly the same way. 170 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: I mean, I will say this, I think very few 171 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 3: people questioned the Brian Kelly choice when it was made 172 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 3: from a football perspective, sure, based on what you had 173 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 3: seen it notre Dame. From a fit perspective in terms 174 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,199 Speaker 3: of culture and all that. That's a that's a different animal. 175 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 3: If he wasn't going to win, then it was going 176 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 3: to be a really bad fit. But at the same time, 177 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 3: it hasn't worked. And look how far LSU seems to 178 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 3: have fallen. And now that the SEC has expanded, You've 179 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 3: brought in Oklahoma, you've brought in Texas, You've just gotten worse. 180 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 3: Like LSU has become and we talked about this a 181 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago, they've become irrelevant. They've become like, oh, 182 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 3: LSU's playing, that's not the way it used to feel. 183 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 3: And within half a season that's where you are. You've 184 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 3: got that happening in LSU. And then of course you 185 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 3: have Penn State losing six games in a row, which 186 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: is astonishing based on where they were seen at the 187 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 3: beginning of the year. But I mean, these were both 188 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 3: teams that were trendy picks to make some noise and 189 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 3: be there in the playoff. Neither one obviously going to 190 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 3: be there, But LSU and Florida are programs that just 191 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 3: it's kind of unbelievable that neither one of them is 192 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: anything to talk about in a positive sense at this point. 193 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: It is going to be fascinating to see who they land. 194 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 3: Florida has to be just like, how much money do 195 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 3: we have to give lang Kiffin to come here? Yeah, 196 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 3: that's what it feels like to me, And that's the 197 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 3: one job I think he would take. 198 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 4: LSU. 199 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: I'm not sure because if we talked about it last week, 200 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 3: the political stuff and all the other things that kind 201 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: of surround the state of Louisiana and how the LSU 202 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: football program. 203 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 4: Is handled, and I don't know. 204 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 3: I don't know what they're gonna end up with specifically, 205 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 3: but I think if Florida does not end up with 206 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 3: Lane Kiffen, it's going to be. 207 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 4: A failure well in terms of what they wanted. 208 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 3: Like, I think that the fans are going to be 209 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 3: disappointed with anybody other than Lane Kiffin. 210 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the only scenario where I would say maybe, 211 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 2: you know, I wouldn't necessarily like if he makes a 212 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: deep playoff run. Sure, I actually think that's low key. 213 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: First of all, I think it's interesting and like sometimes 214 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 2: you see stuff on social media it's nonsense, but I 215 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 2: do think it's worth noting. Matt Rule, Kurt Signetti, Rhet Lashly, 216 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 2: the SMU coach have all signed extensions. Lane Kiffin has not. 217 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 2: Maybe they're in negotiations, we don't know, But I do 218 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: think that's the most interesting part of the Lane Kiffin 219 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 2: stuff is how long can you wait on him? And 220 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: for people who don't know. Old Miss wins today to 221 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 2: improve to nine and one on the season. They have 222 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 2: two games left Florida at home, we just discussed them, 223 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 2: and then they close the season at Ole Miss. They 224 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 2: actually have a or at Mississippi State. Excuse me, they 225 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: actually have a buy in between, so they have the 226 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 2: late bye, second to last weekend of the regular season. 227 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 2: But you know, basically, you'd think they're sitting at nine 228 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 2: and one right now. You'd think ten and two would 229 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: get them into the college football playoff. And even if 230 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: they're playing that opening weekend For people who don't know, 231 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 2: opening weekend is until December twentieth, the nineteenth and twentieth, 232 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 2: and so it becomes a question of how long can 233 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: you wait. By the way, obviously if he wins a game, 234 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: now you're talking about New Year's Eve, New Year's Day 235 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: type set. So I'll say this, j mart And I 236 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 2: didn't even mean to make this into a coaching carousel segment, 237 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 2: but no, but. 238 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: You knew it was. I mean, this is this is 239 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 3: the kind of time when you're talking about programs like this. Yeah, 240 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 3: I mean, this is what we just saw in prime 241 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: time was what happened to LSU. So you're not going 242 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 3: to talk about LSU without getting into a coaching carousel situation. 243 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 2: Well yeah, and and I'll just say bigger picture is 244 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 2: there are so many jobs open right now that like, 245 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 2: like they actually it was funny. I forget what game 246 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 2: I was watching. I don't even know which. It might 247 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: not have even been a game involving a school that 248 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: is looking for a new head coach. Like nine Power 249 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 2: Conference jobs are currently open. That is insane, Like it's 250 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 2: the you know, we just hit the first week of November. 251 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: You know, in theory more could open. Florida State not 252 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: looking very good right now, they're headed towards another disappointing season. 253 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 2: But it is crazy, And I guess the point that 254 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 2: I'm trying to get to is you mentioned Florida fans 255 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 2: being disappointed. If it isn't Lane Kiffin, I just think 256 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 2: there's go I think most of these schools are probably 257 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 2: going to be disappointed because how many candidates are there 258 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: that you want. 259 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 3: That's why I think that's why Wisconsin's doing what they're doing. 260 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 3: I agree percent, one hundred percent believe that they are 261 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 3: bringing Luke Fickle back because they know their job cannot compete. 262 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 3: And look, Wisconsin's had a great football tradition. This is 263 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 3: not to say that they're nobody, but when you're looking 264 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 3: at Florida, LSU, Auburn, you know some of these kind 265 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 3: of heavy hitting schools, Penn State, those kinds of schools, 266 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 3: like you're just not going to measure up in that 267 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 3: Florida State even like these are these are jobs where 268 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 3: it's like it's going to be easier to get candidates there, 269 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 3: and so maybe you just run it back one more 270 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 3: year and it becomes a lame duck year. Unless Fickle's 271 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: able to kind of do something in the offseason, it 272 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 3: gives him another chance. But I think maybe next year 273 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 3: they think, well, a lot of these jobs are not 274 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 3: going to be opened the same way. Next year, maybe 275 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 3: we're going to look more appetizing and have a better run, 276 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 3: because who wants the eighth best coach, at least in 277 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 3: your own mind in this cycle, Like all the guys 278 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 3: on your board are probably going somewhere else. 279 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 2: By the way, I know we're just throwing stuff up 280 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: against the wall here, but all of a sudden, James 281 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 2: frankly doesn't look like a half bad candidate. 282 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 3: Hunt. 283 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: No, he doesn't like whether it's Virginia Tech, whether it's Auburn, 284 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: whether it's one of these jobs. By the way, Alburn, 285 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 2: Auburn loses today. Their once stout defense gives up forty 286 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 2: five points. 287 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 3: So diego Pavia Heisman Trophy. Baby. 288 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, listen, I said it last week, or 289 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: I said it a few weeks ago, as I thought 290 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 2: he should be in the conversation. 291 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 4: He should be in New York. 292 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, when you look at the stats, you're like, oh, 293 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 2: you know, he's not not you know whatever. 294 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 3: But I don't know, man, he had four total touchdowns 295 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 3: today in that game against a pretty good Auburn defense. 296 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 3: He pretty much willed them to stay in it on 297 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 3: a day where Vanderbilt's defense could not seem to stop 298 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 3: what Auburn was doing. I mean, Mendoza, I mean, you 299 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 3: know who's going to be there, but Pop. What is 300 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 3: Vanderbilt without Diego Pavia? You know, what is their offense? 301 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 2: Well? What is the program? Like I haven't thought is 302 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 2: that we might have mentioned this last week when they 303 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: lost to Texas. Like if I'm Clark Lee, I know 304 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 2: it's his alma mater. For people who don't know the 305 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt coach, he went to Vanderbilt. You know, his stated 306 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: life dream was to build Vanderbilt into a power. It's like, 307 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 2: I don't know what they are without Diego Pavia. And 308 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 2: it's like, I know, it's you know, it's it's you know, 309 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 2: everything's great right now. And you're sitting at eight and 310 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: one or whatever you are, or eight and two and 311 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: you're in the playoff mix and whatever. I'm him, And yeah, 312 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, and Penn State or LSU or 313 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 2: somebody offers me that Godfather deal, I'd probably have to 314 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 2: take it.

So I just went 345 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 2: there and enjoyed myself. 346 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 3: But as I'm walking out of the restaurant, somebody is 347 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 3: walking in wearing a rough Rider's T shirt. Let's go, 348 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 3: let's go myself, I was like, man, r ip DMX. 349 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 4: I have not thought about the rough Riders. 350 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 3: In a long long time and then and I had 351 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 3: not had this conversation with anybody out there. And now 352 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 3: we come back with that, We come back, we come 353 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 3: back out with party up. 354 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 4: And I immediately thought. 355 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 3: I was like, man, rough Riders are making a comeback, apparently, 356 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 3: because this is twice in a week that they have 357 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 3: found their way into my universe again. Mary Maxippros, sorry 358 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 3: to send you off to the side there, but no, 359 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 3: I thought that was interesting. 360 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 2: Well, I will tell you what, there was nothing better. 361 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 2: Now I'm an old man. But back in high school, 362 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 2: after a big win high school football, they're playing some 363 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 2: DMX in the locker room. But I'll tell you what. 364 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 2: You know who had a big win today, the Indiana 365 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: freaking Hoosiers. Okay, I don't know if they played any 366 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 2: DMX in the locker room, But how about this. First 367 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: of all, we talked about it last tagment Jmark credit 368 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 2: to Penn statement, you know easily could have laid over. 369 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 2: As you said, they've lost five straight games, obviously the 370 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 2: last two since James Franklin has been fired. Tell you 371 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 2: what they had Indiana on the ropes. They were up 372 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: twenty four to twenty. Indiana gainst the ball with just 373 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 2: a few minutes to go, drive the length of the field. 374 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 2: You've got to hear Gus Johnson on the call as 375 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoza potentially had his Heisman moment, Dondza. That was 376 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 2: Gus Johnson on the call. A Fernando Mendoza touchdown pass 377 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 2: to Omar Cooper, one of the great catches you will 378 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 2: ever see, the double toe tap. By the way, you 379 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 2: knew it was a great game because listen to Kurtz 380 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 2: Signetti after the game describing his emotion with the victory. 381 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 7: It was such an incredible finish, but the composure from 382 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 7: your quarterback to find over Cooper there for that game 383 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 7: winning touchdown. 384 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 2: Take me through it, refuse to lose. 385 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 8: Basically sacked on the one. Haven't done anything the last 386 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 8: five to six passes, get no protection, right, running ball 387 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 8: through us, play action pass, no timeouts left and make 388 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 8: a play on second and who knows what thirty for 389 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 8: a first down? 390 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: Great play in the end zone. 391 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: Didn't draw it up in. 392 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 8: The dirt, But I mean we saw what they were 393 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 8: doing and it's a great throw and catch. 394 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 2: And you know what, this was an unbelievable win. I've 395 00:19:58,520 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 2: see a lot of stuff in my days. 396 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm never say anything quite like this. 397 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 3: Now, don't extend that guy. They have some emotion from 398 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 3: Kurt Signetti and they have. You know, he has another 399 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 3: ten win season, right, he has two ten win seasons 400 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: in a row. 401 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 4: Do you know how. 402 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 3: Many Indiana had prior to him coming? And I mean 403 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 3: in the history of the ind of the football program 404 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 3: dating back to eighteen eighty seven. 405 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 2: I do because I looked it up when he got 406 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 2: the extension and everybody was complaining about it. But I'll 407 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: let you said it. I'll let you pay that off. Jmart. 408 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 2: How many ten win seasons did Indiana have before Kurt 409 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 2: Signetti got there last year zero and how many have 410 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: they had since he got there? 411 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 4: Two? 412 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 2: But oh my goodness, but don't pay him. We gave 413 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 2: him this big extension and the school is gonna regret it. 414 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 4: What could they mind? 415 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 2: Listen, I said this at the time. I think they 416 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 2: were like six and oh at that point, maybe seven 417 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 2: and oh. And I said Kurt Signetti could lose every 418 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: game this year. So let's say they were six and oh. 419 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 2: I said he could lose every game this year, they'd 420 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,360 Speaker 2: still be six and six. And he could go six 421 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: and six the next three years. And that is quite 422 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 2: literally the best five year stretch in the history of 423 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: Indiana football. Well, clearly they haven't, and so I'm not 424 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: even trying to put that out there. What I am 425 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 2: just saying is what this guy has done to elevate 426 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: this program is unbelievable. I know where you're going with 427 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 2: the j Mart deserving of being the second or third 428 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 2: or whatever highest paid coach. And again, by the way, 429 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 2: I wanted to talk Mendoza, but for half a second, 430 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 2: j Mart, this pays off what we talked about at 431 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 2: the time. Oh yeah, Because if you don't give him 432 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: that extension and oh my, how do you give him 433 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 2: all that money guaranteed? Well, I don't know, because Florida 434 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: has an opening, and penn State has an opening, and 435 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 2: LSU as an opening, and maybe he wouldn't even consider them, 436 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 2: or maybe there's one that he would consider. By the way, 437 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 2: he's born in Pennsylvania, so like there's one that makes 438 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 2: a lot of sense as far as I'm concerned. But 439 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 2: that's why you do it, because you risk losing him 440 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 2: in what the alternative? You don't pay them and you 441 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 2: let the maybe the best coach in college football, certainly 442 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 2: the best coach you've ever had, walk out the door. 443 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 2: Unbelievable win for Indiana ten and zero Mendoza's Heisman moment. 444 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 2: But you take that wherever you want, Jamarin. 445 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 3: I mean, there's nothing to say other than this is 446 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 3: a football team that's just finding a way and this 447 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 3: coach has got them believing. 448 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 4: And when you. 449 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 3: Start, when the when you start winning, when the culture 450 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 3: becomes winning, then all of a sudden things start to 451 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 3: It seems to say, things bounce your way, like that 452 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 3: was a that's always been the problem, right with the chiefs, 453 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 3: Things bounce their way or the officials are giving them 454 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 3: these calls. It was the same way with the Patriots. 455 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 3: Notice that all the good teams seem to get the bounces. 456 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 3: All these things start to happen. So it's not like 457 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 3: a mental thing, but it's when you start to win, 458 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 3: just the little stuff, the details start to come together. 459 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 3: Penn State played their butts off especially. I mean, that 460 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 3: defense did everything that you could have possibly wanted them 461 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 3: to do, and then Fernando Mendoza went crazy. He had 462 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 3: eighty some yards on that last drive and made and 463 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 3: that catch. I don't even I don't understand how a 464 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 3: human being could get their foot down like it's just 465 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 3: absolutely preposterous. Just a perfect play. 466 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 4: There's no defense. There's no defense against that play. Pennce. 467 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 3: They didn't do anything wrong, there was just he was 468 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: gonna make that catch, and he made that catch and 469 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 3: the ball was exactly where it needed. 470 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 4: It was just perfect. So I don't know where to. 471 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 3: Take it other than I don't know if Indiana is 472 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 3: gonna win the national championship. But this story is no 473 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 3: longer just cute, yep or interesting. 474 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 4: This story is legit. This coach is legit, this quarterback 475 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 4: is legit. 476 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 3: He's probably gonna win the Heisman and probably deserves to 477 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 3: win the Heisman. It's just amazing because this is the 478 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 3: kind of game that a whole lot of teams are 479 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 3: gonna lose, a whole lot of good football teams, and 480 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,360 Speaker 3: they have all the pressure, right because they're undefeated. They're 481 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 3: trying to stay in that number two spot. They may not, 482 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 3: they may drop to three with what Texas A and 483 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 3: M did to Missouri, which is fine, but they still 484 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 3: found a way to win the game, very similar as 485 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 3: a matter of fact of what Oregon had to do. 486 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 3: Both those two teams in a Big Ten survived scares. 487 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 3: But that's the important part. Good teams find a way 488 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 3: to still get out of there with a victory, and 489 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 3: that's exactly what they did. 490 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 2: Really quick he talked about you know, at some point 491 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 2: it's not blind luck. And listen, I do think the 492 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,239 Speaker 2: word culture is kind of overused in the sport, in 493 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 2: the entire sports world, but certainly in college football. But 494 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 2: you want to hear the definition of culture. So for 495 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 2: people who weren't able to watch this game, Fernando Mendoza 496 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: got rocked time after time after time again, I mean, 497 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 2: Penn State. Whatever you want to say about how the 498 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 2: season has unfolded. Nobody ever questioned their defense. Eight TFLs, 499 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: three sacks, even on the touchdown pass got rocked in 500 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 2: the pocket. After the game, Mendoza was asked about the 501 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 2: physical play, how he's feeling in you know any ill 502 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 2: will about how you know how Penn State really kind 503 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 2: of beat him up. Listen to what he had to say. 504 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 9: So, yeah, I mean physically I feel good. I would 505 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 9: say I'm a larger quarterback. 506 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 3: But to see what the. 507 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,479 Speaker 9: Defense, special teams and offense, especially the offense line, when 508 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 9: they're going through battling every play, I can't stay on 509 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,239 Speaker 9: the ground no matter how hard the hit is, no 510 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 9: matter how. 511 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 2: Much it hurts. 512 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 10: When seeing those guys and seeing Charlie Becker's over there 513 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 10: in my roommate, or seeing Omar Cooper Junior take a hit. 514 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 9: On the scene, or seeing you know, Pat Coogan Khalil 515 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 9: Benson is battling their butts off, I know that I'm 516 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 9: gonna put my life on the line for that team, 517 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 9: and I'm gonna die on that field. I will never 518 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 9: sum myself out in that instance, and I would die 519 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 9: on that field for my brothers. 520 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 2: I would die on the field for I mean That's 521 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:44,479 Speaker 2: pretty good stuff, isn't it. 522 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 3: I'd chills, yeah, and that's chills from an athlete, Like 523 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 3: that's you would go through a wall for that guy. Yeah, 524 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 3: because you believe him, because he's way too specific and 525 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 3: detailed in what he's saying there. He's not just like, man, 526 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 3: I love my guys, Like there are times I hate 527 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 3: to bring this gentleman's name up right now, let me 528 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 3: get because it's just low hanging for. 529 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 2: Pro or college pro. And it is a quarterback right, No, 530 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: it's the NBA. Oh okay, you go where Ron? 531 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:12,239 Speaker 4: Oh? 532 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I was assuming. 533 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 3: When Lebron wins, He's like, man, my guys, my guys 534 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 3: helped me win tonight. It was a step up when 535 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 3: need be, but my guys really helped me out and 536 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 3: all this. It's just like you can just see through that, 537 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 3: you know. But that right there was just genuine because 538 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 3: he was just like these guys and these special teams 539 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 3: and I can't stay on the ground and all this 540 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 3: no matter how hard the hit was. Basically, he's basically saying, 541 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 3: unless I'm concussed or injured to where they take me 542 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 3: out of the game, we're at war together and we're 543 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 3: going to stay at war together. 544 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 4: It's like you. 545 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 3: You know, I mean, imagine if you're an offensive lineman, 546 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 3: how much easier it is to block for a guy 547 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 3: that has your back as opposed to it always just 548 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 3: being the offensive line having the quarterbacks back. Nah, both 549 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 3: these It just that that right there goes to the 550 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 3: word that you use. That's a culture, that's that is 551 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 3: that is that kind of family atmosphere. 552 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 4: But it's also a toughness. 553 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 3: There is a there's a strength in that, there's a 554 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 3: power in the teamwork there, and that comes straight from 555 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 3: Signetti and his staff. 556 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what, Fernando Mendoza making a lot 557 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 2: of friends and a lot of fans across the country. 558 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 2: The Jets now have a lot of first round picks. 559 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 4: Yeah they do. 560 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. We'll switch gears because Fernando Menjoe 561 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 2: doose it might be a future Jet. We'll do that 562 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 2: here in just a moment. Before we do, though, Steve Desager, 563 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: you die for us here in this studio, wouldn't you? 564 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 2: You die for your brothers on the field here? Not 565 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 2: sure about that, I'll come. 566 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 11: I do know that what you just said is making 567 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 11: a lot of fans That was the first reaction I 568 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,719 Speaker 11: had after that game ended and they interviewed him on 569 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 11: the field. It was great that you played that quote 570 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 11: from the quarterback as well. I felt like this team 571 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 11: is impossible to root against. 572 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 3: I agree that, right. 573 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 11: I didn't grow up in in or around it, so 574 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 11: there's nothing naturally in me against it. This is superb. 575 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 11: This is I I can't get enough of this. 576 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 2: I want to see more well, and really quick. I 577 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 2: would say too. I thought when the game went final, 578 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 2: we would get grumpy, angry Signetti and for him to 579 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 2: practically be in tears talking about his guys fighting, like 580 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: that's another thing, right, it's you know that little kurtz 581 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 2: Signetti every time you think he's gonna ziggy zags. And 582 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: I was just I was ready for grumpy, mean Kurt Signetti. 583 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 2: And you could just see and you could hear it 584 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 2: in the audio we played like he had never seen 585 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 2: anything like that before, been part of anything like that. 586 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 11: And the quarterback quote you just played reminded me a 587 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 11: bit of something that Tim Tebow would have said, also, 588 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 11: where you just know not only there's a lot of 589 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 11: talent on the field, but the grit is there as well, 590 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 11: and the never ever give up what a great teammate 591 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 11: to have. And as far as the Indiana Hoosiers football 592 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 11: seasons over the years, now, granted it wasn't until about 593 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 11: twenty years ago they even played more than eleven games 594 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 11: in a season, but if you look at how bad 595 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 11: they have been in conference play over the decades, I'm 596 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 11: talking about since nineteen forty five, since world War two, 597 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 11: there's essentially been one awesome season in Indiana football history, 598 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 11: and that was going to the Rose Bowl in nineteen 599 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 11: sixty seven. A majority of the Indiana football season since 600 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 11: world War two, they've gone roughly two and seven are 601 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 11: worse in conference play, including this century, and Kurt Signetti 602 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 11: in one year goes from one to eight in conference 603 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:32,719 Speaker 11: to eight and one last year. 604 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 2: I remember about six seven years ago, there was a 605 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 2: year where they start out like five and three or something, 606 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 2: and there was a big thing online of like seven Indiana, 607 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 2: Like it was like a big deal that seriously it. 608 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 4: Was heard that before. 609 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 3: That's funny. 610 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like, they got the seven winslet start 611 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 2: a parade. And to Jay Mart's point, literally historically the 612 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 2: two best seasons in program history the first two years 613 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: he shows up. 614 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 4: They have don't pay him. 615 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, they not. I looked this up. 616 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 11: They have not won a bowl game Indiana football since 617 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 11: the nineteen ninety one Copper Bowl in Twuson, so that 618 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 11: might be a stretch that's broken this year. 619 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 3: Does that still exist? 620 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 11: No, there is an Arizona Bowl which would be in 621 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 11: the same stadium. But Indiana, ranked second in the country, 622 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 11: is ten and zero overall after winning on the late 623 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 11: touchdown pass at Penn State twenty seven, twenty four.

I like Fernando Mendoza Ian, I'll tell you 710 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 2: what play one more time. Fernando Mendoza after getting beat 711 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: up behind the line of scrimmage against Penn State. This 712 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 2: is what he said about the physicality of the Penn 713 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 2: State game. 714 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 9: So yeah, I mean physically I feel good. I would 715 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 9: say I'm a larger quarterback. But the see what the defense, 716 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 9: special teams and offense, especially the off line, where they're 717 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 9: going through battling every play. I can't stay on the 718 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 9: ground no matter how hard the hit is, no matter 719 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 9: how much it hurts. 720 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 2: When seeing those. 721 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 3: Guys and ceiling. 722 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 10: Charlie Becker's over there in my roommate, or seeing Omar 723 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 10: Cooper Junior take a hit on the scene, or seeing you. 724 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 9: Know, Pat Kugan Khalil Benson battling their butts off. I know, 725 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 9: I'm gonna put my life on the line for that team, 726 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,359 Speaker 9: and I'm gonna die on that field. I will never 727 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 9: sum myself out in that instance, and I. 728 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: Would die on that field for my brothers. That was 729 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoz after the game j Mart big week for 730 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 2: the Jets. I believe it's two first rounders this year, 731 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: in three and twenty twenty seven. Obviously it wouldn't applied 732 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty seven. 733 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 3: Ye know, now I understand why you want why you 734 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 3: wanted to talk about Mendoza again because we had just 735 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 3: done it. But now it makes more sense to me. 736 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 2: That was gonna be my question. I mean, the Jets, 737 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 2: you know, there's a bigger like a deadline conversation, but 738 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 2: it kind of works well. Like you have a couple 739 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 2: first round picks, you clearly don't have your quarterback. I mean, 740 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 2: you don't have much around him right now, are you? 741 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 5: So? 742 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 2: Mendoza should be at least QB one off the board, 743 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: if not number one overall. Pick, especially if the Jets 744 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:16,319 Speaker 2: were to have the pick. 745 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 3: I mean, until you have a quarterback, you got nothing. Yes, 746 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 3: so unless they have some other plan in terms of 747 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 3: getting somebody that's currently in the league, and I don't 748 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 3: mean a Justin fields Tepe, I mean somebody that can 749 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 3: actually come in there for a handful of years. I 750 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 3: know it just sounded like Woody Johnson. I'm not trying 751 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 3: to bury Justin Field, but that was clearly he's not 752 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 3: going to be the future. I think we're I think 753 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 3: we're in a pretty shallow water to say that. 754 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 4: Without a quarterback. I don't think they have a choice. 755 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 3: But to take Mendoza unless they don't like him, like, 756 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 3: unless they don't think he's good. And if they don't 757 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 3: think he's good, then don't draft a quarterback in this 758 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 3: draft because there's very little that is going to be 759 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 3: franchised changing and I don't know that he is. It's 760 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 3: the wrong year to have the number one overall pick, 761 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 3: of you the Jets, Like, whoever it is that you 762 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,959 Speaker 3: need is probably not going to be there, but he's 763 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 3: probably your best shot. 764 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so too. Jets, of course, a one 765 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 2: win team along with the Tennessee Titans, who will not 766 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: be taking a quarterback. New Orleans Saints. I don't know 767 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 2: what they're doing. I don't think they have their future 768 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 2: quarterback on the roster, even though they just use what 769 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 2: a second round pick on Tyler Shuck last week. Big picture, 770 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,800 Speaker 2: what did you just think of the Jets week? They 771 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 2: trade Sauce Gardner for two first round picks plus eighty Mitchell, 772 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 2: They trade Quinn Williams for a couple picks. You know, you, 773 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 2: me and you producer, Ian, we're texting. I'll just give 774 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 2: my quick take. Is what you just said is just 775 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 2: it's never been more encapsulated than this week for the 776 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 2: New York Jets. Is they basically nailed every pick of significance, 777 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 2: you know, for a two to three year stretch. Garrett Wilson, 778 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: Sauce Gardener, Quinn Williams, you know, Brees Hall, You go 779 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 2: on and on down the list except for one, and 780 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 2: that was when they took Zach Wilson with the second 781 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: overall pick. They've been scrambling ever since. It is kind 782 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 2: of surreal to me how you can literally nail every pick, 783 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 2: but if you don't have the right quarterback, it doesn't matter. 784 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 2: That's really my biggest takeaway. Obviously there's a Colt single 785 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 2: to this as well, but yeah, that was my big 786 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 2: takeaway from the week, the Jets trading sauce Gardener and 787 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 2: Quinn and Williams for a hahule of draft picks. 788 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just until you have a quarterback, you 789 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 3: really it doesn't really matter what else you have. It's 790 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 3: just been proven time and time again. And you're right, 791 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 3: like sauce Gardner just went to a team that is 792 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 3: going to be able to do something with him because 793 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 3: they think they have found their quarterback for the next 794 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,720 Speaker 3: handful of years. So they're kind of out of that market, 795 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 3: so it puts them in a better spot. But if 796 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 3: you're the Jets, like without a quarterback, you don't have 797 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 3: the luxury of sitting around with the Quentin Williams or 798 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 3: a sauce Gardener or all this and trying to build 799 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 3: around then because you're still not going to win. And 800 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 3: I think that's why the Jets had to do this, 801 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 3: Like you look at you, like, oh my goodness, it's 802 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 3: like they're tearing it down to the studs because as 803 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 3: good as they were in drafting other guys, they couldn't 804 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 3: find the guy to run the team because QB one 805 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 3: is it's a non negotiable. If you don't have a quarterback, 806 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,360 Speaker 3: you don't have much and so you get rid of 807 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 3: those assets to try and go find the quarterback. That's 808 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 3: the only reason you do this is to stockpile enough assets. 809 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 3: And if you're the Jets, you probably need a couple 810 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 3: of first rounders because you're gonna screw a few of 811 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 3: them up trying to find the quarterbacks. So you're gonna 812 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 3: hear you're trying to give yourself some mulligans so that 813 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 3: you can maybe draft two or three guys and one 814 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 3: of them turns out to be the guy. 815 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 2: Well, if there's any silver lining for the Jets, they 816 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 2: did draft the right quarterback in Sam Darnold. It just 817 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 2: took him three or four team. That just took him 818 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 2: three or four teams after he left New York for 819 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 2: the figure it out. So the Jets, Yeah, the Jets. 820 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: You know, listen, I'll say this really quick and ian 821 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 2: cover of years. But you know, when I was a kid, 822 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 2: you know, when we're growing up watching you, sometimes you 823 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,240 Speaker 2: just think we're talking about it a minute ago. With Indiana, 824 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 2: Indiana football, it's like sometimes you think organizations have bad 825 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 2: luck and then you just realize, no, it starts at 826 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 2: the top and it's just a like how many coaches, gms, 827 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 2: whatever do we have to go through? It's whatdy Johnson 828 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 2: and it's the Jets and they stink and listen to 829 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 2: a point he and brought up earlier this week, like 830 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 2: this is the move you have to make. It is 831 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 2: the smart move. Now, just the big question is can 832 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 2: you hit on a quarterback. The good news is, like 833 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 2: I said, one of the teams at least you're competing 834 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 2: with for the number one overall pick doesn't need a 835 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 2: quarterback in the Tennessee Titans. Fox Sports radio er tors 836 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 2: Jason Martin will come back when we do switch gears 837 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 2: to the NBA. The Lakers are awesome, that's not necessarily 838 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 2: a good thing.

One college football game left of note 844 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 2: at the Rose a largely Nebraska content. You know, Nebraska 845 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 2: fan contingent is watching Nebraska kind of control the game 846 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:13,760 Speaker 2: against UCLA twenty eight to fourteen. Is the score, Bloom 847 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,280 Speaker 2: is officially off the Jerry Newheidel Rose. 848 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:17,760 Speaker 4: I was about to ask that exact question. 849 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fun while I laught at you, fast man. 850 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 3: But he no matter what, he's got memories that are 851 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 3: gonna last forever. 852 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got some locker room videos that are gonna 853 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 2: last on the internet forever too. It's great. It was 854 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,839 Speaker 2: fun while it lasted. But uh yeah, Ucla losing this 855 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 2: game twenty eight to fourteen. By the way, let me 856 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 2: say this, like you know and I get it right. 857 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:42,319 Speaker 2: We live in a playoff world and all that. Let's 858 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 2: give a little credit to Nebraska. Dylan Ryola goes down 859 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 2: last week in a game that you know, you I 860 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 2: won't say you had one, but you were in control of. 861 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 2: He goes down with an injury. He got a travel 862 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 2: cross country. You know, you lose just a brutal game 863 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 2: that you were in position to win. You lose your 864 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 2: starting quarterback for the year. You gotta travel across country. 865 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 2: It would have been easy to kind of just fold 866 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 2: it up and not show up ready to play. I mean, 867 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 2: we saw, you know, we saw another team named Penn 868 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 2: State show up not ready to play at the Rose 869 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: Bowl and got you know, got punked, and so you know, 870 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 2: we didn't talk about it very much, but just a 871 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 2: quick shout out to to Nebraska for showing up ready 872 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 2: to play with the backup quarterback tonight. 873 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's tough, and it's just got to 874 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 3: be such a gut punch to lose the guy. I mean, 875 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 3: the same things happened to Penn State. Obviously lose an 876 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 3: hour even with the season I had already slipped by 877 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 3: them at that point, but at the same time, that 878 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 3: was a blow. And to lose Riyola, who was giving 879 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 3: you such a boost, It'd be very easy to show 880 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 3: up deflated in a game like this, where it just 881 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 3: feels like this season had a lot of promise and 882 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 3: now it's however it ends, it's probably gonna be kind 883 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 3: of middle of the road to what you were hoping 884 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 3: for it to be. 885 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:57,799 Speaker 4: To show up and. 886 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 3: Play hard, play small art, and really hold this UCLA 887 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 3: team that has shown the ability to put up some 888 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 3: serious points in recent weeks. 889 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 4: It is definitely. 890 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 3: Impressive, Like it's just a good performance and it shows 891 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 3: a lot about the character and the Nebraska football team. 892 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 2: Nebraska, by the way, gets a bye next week. Then 893 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,280 Speaker 2: they go to Penn State and close at Iowa. Penn 894 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,240 Speaker 2: State could not hold on against Indiana, and the wildest 895 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 2: game of the day, probably the second wildest game of 896 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 2: the day, Oregon with a late score, beats the Iowha Guys. 897 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 2: We'll get back to college football in a little bit, 898 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 2: J Mart, But do you want to talk NBA. You know, 899 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 2: we don't do a ton of NBA on this show. 900 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 2: We're more of a college football NFL show. But you know, 901 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: it was a little bit of a lighter day in 902 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 2: college football. And I think to the point you brought 903 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 2: up earlier, J Mart, I think the field is really 904 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:53,879 Speaker 2: going to start to narrow itself. Next week. We have 905 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 2: Texas at Georgia, we have Oklahoma at Alabama, so we'll 906 00:43:58,480 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 2: have a lot to react to next week. But I 907 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 2: do want to talk a little bit about the NBA 908 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: because I think there's a very interesting situation brewing in 909 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 2: Los Angeles with the Lakers. Now, the Lakers did lose 910 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,760 Speaker 2: on Saturday night in Atlanta by twenty to the Hawks. 911 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,240 Speaker 2: One twenty two to one oh two was the final score, 912 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 2: but I bring it up because prior to that, the 913 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 2: Lakers had been on a five game winning streak that 914 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 2: included beating the red hot San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday 915 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 2: night at Crypto dot Com Arena in a game where 916 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 2: you were not where you were playing, excuse me without 917 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 2: your second leading scorer, Austin Reeves. But even with the 918 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 2: loss tonight, the Lakers are sitting at seven to three. 919 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,720 Speaker 2: You know, it's way too early to talk MVP stuff, 920 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 2: but Luca averaging a cool forty eleven and nine and 921 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 2: a half assists per game, and so I just bring 922 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 2: it up. The Lakers are really, really, really good. 923 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 9: Now. 924 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 2: What's interesting is usually when you're really good and you 925 00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:00,359 Speaker 2: have a future Hall of Famer that's not playing, it's 926 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,239 Speaker 2: usually generally a pretty good thing, right, you know, I 927 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 2: don't know, got a guy couping back who's one of 928 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 2: the two best players in the history of basketball. I 929 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 2: actually think it's the exact opposite. I think we got 930 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,680 Speaker 2: a situation brewing in Los Angeles, and you know, we 931 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 2: can get into all the details, but weird offseason Lebron 932 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 2: picks up the one year extension, the Lakers kind of 933 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:23,319 Speaker 2: make it pretty clear to him that they're not really 934 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 2: excited to have him back all that much. And you 935 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 2: have a situation where at some point here in the 936 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 2: not too distant future, he's coming back. And it feels 937 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 2: pretty obvious to me, and I'll defer to you to 938 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 2: see what you have to say. Feels pretty obvious to me. 939 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 2: This is clearly Luka Doncic's team. It's clearly by the 940 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 2: way in the offseason and offseason where he had a 941 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 2: lot of say on the players that are playing around him. 942 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 2: Everybody's playing well, and now you got this, this stark 943 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 2: cloud that is Lebron James kind of lurking get ready 944 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,439 Speaker 2: to come back from injury here soon. 945 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 3: I mean, I hope you're not looking for me to disagree. 946 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,360 Speaker 3: It's one hundred percent page has been turned. We already 947 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 3: kind of heard about that during the offseason, right like 948 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,439 Speaker 3: it felt like Lebron needed to get out of there 949 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 3: because they were now going to Luca and asking him 950 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 3: about personnel decisions. And let's just be as frank as 951 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,360 Speaker 3: we have to be here. Luca and Austin Reeves have 952 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:22,800 Speaker 3: just been great together. There's been chemistry there. They seem 953 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:24,440 Speaker 3: to be having fun. So does the rest of the 954 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 3: team around them. But they've got some legit scorers and 955 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 3: they're just rolling right now. And the one thing that 956 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 3: you never want to do is disrupt chemistry when you 957 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,720 Speaker 3: see it in front of you. And boy JJ Reddick, 958 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:41,240 Speaker 3: who probably has that gig because of Lebron James crazy. 959 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 3: It's also a pretty smart guy. And I bet in 960 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:48,760 Speaker 3: the back of his head he's like, oh man, because 961 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 3: he knows that what you're saying is one hundred percent right. 962 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 3: Because here's the problem. When Lebron comes back. Lebron needs 963 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 3: the ball. Okay, you know what Luca needs the ball. 964 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 3: Do you know what Austin Reeves needs as well? 965 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:03,439 Speaker 4: The ball? 966 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 2: When you average at thirty one, Yeah, you need the ball. 967 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 3: You Yeah, and you should like you've got the green light. 968 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 3: Lebron should be the third option offensively, and I just don't. 969 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 4: See him doing that. 970 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 3: I don't see Clutch wanting him to do that either. 971 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 3: So they have a big time problem here because really, 972 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,320 Speaker 3: like if they were to hear that maybe the injury 973 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 3: was a bit of a setback and he was going 974 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 3: to be missing another month or so, that'd be the 975 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 3: best possible news for them because they could continue to 976 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 3: ride this high and maybe this high is going to 977 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 3: stick because Luca's just that good. I mean, that's why 978 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,839 Speaker 3: when that trade happened while we were on air, we 979 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 3: both thought it was fake yep, and Steve di Seger 980 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 3: thought it was fake. We were trying to find something 981 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 3: to like make it look real, and then all of 982 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 3: a sudden we find out it is real. And then 983 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 3: we've done multiple segments on Nico in Dallas and we're 984 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 3: not done. We're going to get there before the end 985 00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 3: of this night as well. So like this shouldn't not 986 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 3: be a terrible surprise. The only person this must be 987 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 3: a surprise too was Kendrick Perkins, because Kendrick Perkins came 988 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 3: out of the woodwork to say that the Dallas Mavericks 989 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 3: won that trade. 990 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 4: He said that before the season. 991 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 3: He said that towards the end of last year when 992 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 3: he was covering for Lebron and saying it was all 993 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,279 Speaker 3: Lucas fault, Luke can't play defense and all this other 994 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 3: kind of stuff. Let me tell you who didn't win 995 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 3: the trade, Dallas. Look at the Mavericks right now, and 996 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 3: then let me throw one other thing to you. If 997 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 3: you believe that there was no conspiracy involved, that the 998 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 3: trade was. 999 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 4: On the up and up. The draft was up on 1000 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 4: the up and up. The lottery was on the up 1001 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 4: and up. 1002 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 3: Nico Harrison traded Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis, one player 1003 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 3: in one draft pick, Max Christy and a draft pick. 1004 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 3: Didn't get Austin Reeves, didn't get another first round pick 1005 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 3: for him, and at the time that he made the trade, 1006 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 3: he didn't think he was gonna get Cooper Flag either. Yeah, 1007 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 3: that's got to be the worst trade I've ever seen 1008 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 3: in sports. It's certainly up there. Yeah, we'll talk about 1009 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 3: the we got, we got more Nico Harrison takes here. 1010 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,760 Speaker 3: Just just stick with us here with the Luca Lebron stuff. 1011 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 3: It's fascinating. 1012 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: First of all, the JJ Reddick part, to me is 1013 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 2: the most interesting. And I remember us talking about this 1014 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 2: in the spring, because I seem to remember, Uh, it 1015 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,919 Speaker 2: was at some point in probably late April early May, 1016 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 2: after the Lakers had been eliminated in the first round 1017 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 2: of the playoffs, of a Luca rob Polinka JJ Reddick meeting, 1018 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 2: and I was just like, man, JJ, you know, stabbing, 1019 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:37,840 Speaker 2: stabbing in the back, the guy that got him the job. 1020 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 3: But well, honestly, good for him because he wants to 1021 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 3: keep the. 1022 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:41,840 Speaker 2: Job the job exactly. 1023 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 3: No. 1024 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 2: And and I'll say this, it is going to be 1025 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 2: very interesting. By the way, Lebron is uh been cleared 1026 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 2: for contact uh you know, contact activities reevaluated in a 1027 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 2: week or two. So I agree with everything you said. 1028 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 2: And I guess where I'm curious is this? Like, First 1029 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,240 Speaker 2: of all, I I think you know, there are people 1030 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,279 Speaker 2: that are questioning even the injury to begin with. You know, 1031 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 2: how injured is he really? 1032 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 4: You know, I mean as sciatica? 1033 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 3: What was it? Charles Barkley said he's got an old 1034 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:10,440 Speaker 3: man injury. 1035 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean he's forty one years old. 1036 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 3: So I mean I had some scietic I had some 1037 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 3: siedic nerve problems and all this other kind of stuff. 1038 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,439 Speaker 3: But I'm not trying to play NBA basketball. And look, 1039 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 3: if he does have it, he is old. He's been 1040 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 3: playing a ton of basketball in his life. 1041 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, and I know there's no 1042 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 2: way to answer it. Do you think there's a possibility 1043 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 2: that he never steps on the court as a Laker? 1044 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: Ever? 1045 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:34,320 Speaker 2: Again? I was thinking about No, Okay. 1046 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 3: I don't. I I just can't imagine it because it 1047 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:37,960 Speaker 3: would be such a blow to his ego. I just 1048 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,800 Speaker 3: think somehow, behind behind closed doors, he would find a 1049 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 3: way for that not to happen. He also has to 1050 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 3: find a soft landing spots for us side. 1051 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 2: Well, I was gonna, well, I was gonna say, is 1052 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 2: there a trade market for him? Like I I there 1053 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 2: probably is, but it probably isn't as robust as he thinks. 1054 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 2: And I believe he has a no trade clause. I 1055 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,879 Speaker 2: could be totally wrong on that, but I just bring 1056 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 2: it up because you know, we know he was pushing 1057 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 2: for Cleveland last last offseason. They didn't seem to have 1058 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 2: very much interest, and so you start looking at legitimate 1059 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:15,720 Speaker 2: options and it's like, how many how many places would 1060 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 2: he want to go to even if they were interested 1061 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 2: in trading for him. And that's under the assumption that 1062 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 2: some of these places would be interested in trading for him. 1063 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 2: So I think you're right. I think he will play 1064 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 2: with the Lakers again. But you know, one I do 1065 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 2: wonder if I do wonder, like you said, if they 1066 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:38,319 Speaker 2: kind of very delicately ease him back in, because you know, 1067 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 2: listen to the bottom line is it's a blow to 1068 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 2: his ego as well, right, is that the team is 1069 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 2: better off without you. The team doesn't need you all that, 1070 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:49,840 Speaker 2: and so, yeah, I think he plays for the Lakers. Again, 1071 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 2: let me put it this way. I don't think it's 1072 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,799 Speaker 2: a zero point zero zero zero percent chance that he 1073 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 2: never plays for the Lakers just because it is getting weird. 1074 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, maybe the opposite happens and 1075 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:01,720 Speaker 2: they go on a little bit of a losing streak 1076 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 2: and it's clear that they still need him. But to me, 1077 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 2: right now, it looks like they are better off without him. 1078 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 2: They have fully transitioned into Luka doncicic era and it's 1079 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 2: time for everybody to move on, although I don't know 1080 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 2: that they'll really be able to until after this season. 1081 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, so about the little I mean, I think just 1082 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 3: trying to think about it from Lebron's perspective, and this 1083 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:24,320 Speaker 3: is just me if I were Lebron James the spot. 1084 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 4: I'm not, and this may not be how he thinks, 1085 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:27,759 Speaker 4: but if it's me. 1086 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 3: Right now, I'm sitting at home trying to figure out 1087 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 3: how do I want this to end in terms of 1088 00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 3: my legacy in the NBA. I can't go out like this. 1089 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 3: I can't go out watching somebody else completely take over 1090 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 3: the team. And then me be ushered out of town 1091 00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 3: and that just be like the last that I'm heard 1092 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 3: from he Now, I think, I think the mode now 1093 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 3: becomes less let's go win a championship somewhere, and now 1094 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 3: becomes where can I have the farewell tour that I want? 1095 00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:57,200 Speaker 3: Where was? 1096 00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 2: I think that's part of why he wanted to end 1097 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 2: up in Cleveland, right he thought, Yeah. 1098 00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 3: I would think so that would be the easiest place 1099 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 3: that he could land. And then the team that takes 1100 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 3: him on is going to be a team that just 1101 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 3: wants to sell tickets. I don't think that you're bringing 1102 00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,360 Speaker 3: him in to be a championship leading piece, like he 1103 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:16,359 Speaker 3: could be part of something I guess, but I don't 1104 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:18,919 Speaker 3: think that he can. I don't think he can play 1105 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,359 Speaker 3: second or third banana. I don't think that that would 1106 00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 3: work from a chemistry perspective. So the team that wants 1107 00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 3: to bring him on is just one that wants to 1108 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 3: sell tickets because you have a few more opportunities to 1109 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,919 Speaker 3: say I saw Lebron James play in person, and once 1110 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,479 Speaker 3: that chance is over, that chance is over. 1111 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,720 Speaker 4: So I do think that becomes kind of the crux. 1112 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 3: It's like, well, we can make some money at the turnstiles, 1113 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 3: even though we're probably not going to win a championship, 1114 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 3: which is kind of amazing to say about Lebron, But look, 1115 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 3: when you stick around as long as he has, yeah, 1116 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 3: because he's been healthy and all this, eventually this is 1117 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 3: just gonna happen. It's not like he's a bad basketball player. 1118 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,800 Speaker 3: But at this time, you're bringing in somebody that's closer 1119 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 3: to being Aaron Rodgers in terms of a chemistry problem 1120 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 3: if it's not the right situation, and that really is 1121 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,919 Speaker 3: what it is, like, I mean, you think about think 1122 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,400 Speaker 3: about what happened in Green Bay, and then finally they 1123 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:10,799 Speaker 3: were just like, dude, get this guy out of here. 1124 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 3: We're gonna turn the page. And they may have not 1125 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:14,839 Speaker 3: gotten it right right because we don't know what Jordan 1126 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 3: Love really is. I'm not really too high on him 1127 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 3: right now. But at the same time, they had to 1128 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,719 Speaker 3: finally turn that page. And Aaron Rodgers had just kind 1129 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:25,839 Speaker 3: of worn out his welcome with the front office. He'd 1130 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 3: pushed too hard, he had gotten his way and had 1131 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:30,919 Speaker 3: not been able to pay dividends. And I think we're 1132 00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 3: in a similar spot with Lebron James right now. 1133 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 2: It is fascinating and I guess in theory somebody would 1134 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 2: want him for that argument of selling tickets. But again, 1135 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 2: you know, I mean, where's he gonna end, Like, you know, 1136 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 2: like the teams that need to sell tickets are not 1137 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 2: a place that he wants to end for the legacy 1138 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,919 Speaker 2: that he is hoping to have. So you know, it's 1139 00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 2: just a fascinating deal. Really quick, do we want to 1140 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 2: spend half a second on the Dallas Maverick. I mean, 1141 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,840 Speaker 2: to their credit, they did beat the Washington Wizards tonight 1142 00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 2: to improve to three and seven. They no longer have 1143 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 2: the worst record in the NBA. That belongs, by the way, 1144 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:15,720 Speaker 2: to Washington, Brooklyn and Indiana all tied with one win apiece. 1145 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 2: The New Orleans Pelicans riding up the Caboos in the 1146 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,839 Speaker 2: West that two and seven overall, by the way, New 1147 00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:24,320 Speaker 2: Orleans Pelicans, Like, I don't want to make this a 1148 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 2: Pelican segment. What a disaster. I mean, nobody cares it's 1149 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 2: New Orleans. But it's like how many times have they 1150 00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 2: tried to reboot that thing one around Zion Williamson. But 1151 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 2: you know, they had the CJ. McCollums stuff, they had whatever, 1152 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 2: And it's just they're two and seven. It's I don't know, 1153 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 2: it's not a New Orleans Repelican segment. But your boy 1154 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 2: Nico Harrison sitting at three and seven as the Mavericks 1155 00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 2: do beat the Washington Wizards on Saturday Night. 1156 00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, well good for him. That's just it's not gonna 1157 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 3: get better. I don't know that they have the right mix. 1158 00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 3: I mean there's one there's one other thing about the 1159 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,279 Speaker 3: MAVs that hasn't really been said as of yet, and 1160 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 3: that is Klay Thompson might be done, might be look 1161 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,359 Speaker 3: at his numbers during the break. We can come back 1162 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:08,920 Speaker 3: and tell you exactly what. Let me just tell you 1163 00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,880 Speaker 3: they're not very good at all. And you've got Cooper 1164 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 3: flag and in year one and there's nothing around him. 1165 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,640 Speaker 3: There's there's nothing there. Anthony Davis has already been hurt 1166 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,879 Speaker 3: a little bit more. You just don't have a ton 1167 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 3: there without Kyrie. And it's just obviously a rookie year 1168 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,360 Speaker 3: is going to be tough anyway generally because you're not 1169 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 3: going to a pretty good team. But this was supposed 1170 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:32,840 Speaker 3: to be like man, he just he won the lottery 1171 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:34,640 Speaker 3: because he went to a much no pun intended, but 1172 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 3: he won the lottery because he he went to a 1173 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 3: team that had a couple of pieces and all this 1174 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:41,320 Speaker 3: other stuff. They just look bad. It just it's amazing 1175 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 3: how far off they have fallen. And again, consider if 1176 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:46,879 Speaker 3: you don't want to think that there was some kind 1177 00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 3: of skullduggery behind the scenes that Nico Harrison made this 1178 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,760 Speaker 3: trade not thinking that they were going to have Cooper Flag. 1179 00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 3: How bad would the Dallas Mavericks be right now if 1180 00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:00,440 Speaker 3: they had just gotten you know, some random like number 1181 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 3: six draft pick or something like that, as opposed to 1182 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 3: a guy that you think could at least help help 1183 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:10,720 Speaker 3: carry your your team, your your franchise for a while 1184 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 3: after that, Like, that's a it's a it's a rough 1185 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 3: time right now in Dallas. 1186 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 2: By the way, Klay Thompson averaging seven point six points, 1187 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 2: two point seven, two point nine rebounds excuse me in 1188 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 2: nine games played and seven starts. Also for those scoring 1189 00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 2: at home, he is shooting, let's see here, twenty six 1190 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 2: percent from three point lands. So yeah, Klay Thompson. Great career, 1191 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,720 Speaker 2: all time, great, Probably time to hang it up. He'll 1192 00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 2: be thirty six in February.

It's early in 1282 01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 2: the NBA season, but hey, we can talk a little 1283 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 2: NBA Lakers seven and three, but they got themselves a 1284 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 2: Lebron problem. And unfortunately for the Memphis Grizzlies, pretty much 1285 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 2: like every year for the last three or four, they've 1286 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 2: got themselves a Jahn Morant problem. So John Morant is 1287 01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:02,200 Speaker 2: the star in Memphis, we all know that, but with 1288 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:06,040 Speaker 2: the coaching change that happened late last season, he is 1289 01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 2: not very happy with the state of the organization. Okay, 1290 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 2: so yeah, I know, shocker, right, Memphis four and six. 1291 01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:18,080 Speaker 2: Joh did did take a one game suspension, basically for 1292 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 2: mouthing off to the new head coach. I know it's 1293 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 2: unprofessional of me. I don't know how to pronounce the 1294 01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:26,480 Speaker 2: guy's name. He's from Finland. All I do know is 1295 01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 2: this jmart I was actually on air, I want to say, 1296 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 2: maybe filling in for Doug Gottlieb last year. Last spring, 1297 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 2: Taylor Jenkins fired with nine games to go and Memphis 1298 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:42,760 Speaker 2: in the five spot, and all I heard was, well, 1299 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:45,400 Speaker 2: you know, they really like this this new coach, and 1300 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:47,919 Speaker 2: you know they've they've really been impressed by what he's 1301 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:51,040 Speaker 2: done in previous stops and think he's the guy. And 1302 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 2: I said it at the time, and frankly, nothing has changed. 1303 01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 2: Is if John Rant's your star, I don't really care 1304 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 2: who the coaches, it's not gonna work. The four and 1305 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 2: six Memphis Grizzlies suspended Ja Morant for one game for 1306 01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 2: conduct detrimental to the team this week. 1307 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:14,600 Speaker 3: It is astonishing how close John Morant was to maybe 1308 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,040 Speaker 3: be in the new face of the NBA going forward. 1309 01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 3: He had everything behind him. He even had all the 1310 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 3: media saying put it behind him. He had former players 1311 01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 3: saying put the league behind him. It was outrageous. How 1312 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 3: good he was like two three years ago, and you 1313 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 3: look at it now, like every one of his stats 1314 01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 3: has dropped. Obviously the off the court stuff, but the 1315 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 3: on the court attitude, everything's falling apart. You end up 1316 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 3: trading Desmond baying Away. You got nothing out of that 1317 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 3: Memphis run pretty much at all, except a little bit 1318 01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:46,560 Speaker 3: of fun if you're a Memphis fan for a year 1319 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 3: or two and since then, Like this, to me, I 1320 01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:54,560 Speaker 3: don't even know how to say it, but like John 1321 01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 3: Morant kind of came out of nowhere. And I don't 1322 01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:00,280 Speaker 3: mean any NBA. He came out of nowhere at Murray Date, 1323 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 3: like all. I mean, he hadn't played basketball's whole life 1324 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 3: or anything like that. He took off like a rocket ship. 1325 01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 3: And I remember before that draft saying, I'm on record 1326 01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:12,520 Speaker 3: saying John Morant is going to have a far better career, 1327 01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:15,240 Speaker 3: I believe than Zion and I based that on his 1328 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 3: injuries more than anything else, because they went one and two. 1329 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 3: But now you're looking at it and it's like, Ja 1330 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:25,440 Speaker 3: Morant now, to me, is closer to being out of 1331 01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 3: the league than he is being a Hall of Famer. 1332 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 3: Like that, that's how far he has he has fallen. 1333 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:35,440 Speaker 3: He's put the wrong people around him, he listened to 1334 01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:38,720 Speaker 3: the wrong advice. It's almost like he got too much 1335 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:41,080 Speaker 3: too soon and didn't know how to do how to 1336 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 3: deal with it, and didn't have the right support system 1337 01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:49,360 Speaker 3: around him to just make sure that everything was brought 1338 01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:53,960 Speaker 3: along carefully. Like I'm not a math guy, That's why 1339 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:57,760 Speaker 3: I'm talking about sports for a living. But if a 1340 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 3: calculus professor came up to me and tried to teach 1341 01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,480 Speaker 3: me calculous and I didn't know how to do long 1342 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 3: division yet, then things would go very, very poorly because 1343 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:10,440 Speaker 3: I would understand nothing, and it might even lead me 1344 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 3: to give up, but it would lead to a lot 1345 01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 3: of very bad decisions, confusion, all this other kind of stuff. 1346 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 3: Sometimes you got to bring people on slow. And I 1347 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:21,960 Speaker 3: just think Jaw exploded so fast that I don't even 1348 01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:24,160 Speaker 3: know that Jaw understood it. And all of a sudden, 1349 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:27,440 Speaker 3: he's got every camera in his face, he's got shoe deals, 1350 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:30,680 Speaker 3: he's got all this money, and he's got everybody telling 1351 01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 3: him how great he is. And I just feel like 1352 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 3: maybe it went to his head a little bit and 1353 01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 3: he didn't have somebody to keep him in check. It's 1354 01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 3: a very sad story because the talent and watching him 1355 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 3: play was absolutely extraordinary for a short period of time. 1356 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,640 Speaker 3: But everything that you just laid out about Taylor Jenkins 1357 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 3: and about the chemistry issues and all that, it's one 1358 01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 3: hundred percent right, and it's just it's sad because I 1359 01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:56,440 Speaker 3: don't know that it's fixable at this point. 1360 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean, I think a couple of things 1361 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 2: here won little context because I was actually kind of 1362 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,720 Speaker 2: intrigued as I looked into it. I guess this new coach, 1363 01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 2: you know, he's had success at a couple stops in Europe, 1364 01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:10,320 Speaker 2: and his big thing is kind of like basically like 1365 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:13,200 Speaker 2: hockey line substitutions, you know, like four or five guys 1366 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 2: at a time, and you know it's worked everywhere else. 1367 01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 2: And that was I guess, you know, a unique theory 1368 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:24,000 Speaker 2: that you know intrigued the Memphis Grizzlies, and basically he's 1369 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:26,280 Speaker 2: on record are saying like everywhere I've gone, people have 1370 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,720 Speaker 2: questioned it, and everywhere I've gone, it's worked out, and 1371 01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:32,760 Speaker 2: we know essentially like just because we've and I actually 1372 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:34,520 Speaker 2: think it's actually kind of interesting. The more I looked 1373 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 2: into it, he was basically like, you know, just because 1374 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:41,320 Speaker 2: we've done, We've done a certain thing one way throughout 1375 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:43,720 Speaker 2: the history of basketball doesn't mean that it's the right way. 1376 01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:49,200 Speaker 2: And so anyway he has faced this pushback before. That 1377 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 2: was clearly John Rant's frustration, basically saying like I can't 1378 01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 2: get into a rhythm. And I think what was the 1379 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:58,360 Speaker 2: other kind of interesting thing is that? And this may 1380 01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:01,080 Speaker 2: speak to your point about being of the league what's 1381 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:02,800 Speaker 2: next for him? And I know you don't mean like 1382 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,520 Speaker 2: literally out of the league like tomorrow, but what was 1383 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 2: interesting was the Grizzlies backed up the coach and it 1384 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:13,520 Speaker 2: was John Morant that got suspended. And I do find 1385 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 2: the comment that you made closer to being out of 1386 01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 2: the league than in the Hall of Fame interesting because 1387 01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 2: it's not working right now in Memphis now. It's not 1388 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 2: to say that maybe at some point he doesn't buy in, 1389 01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 2: although to your point, we have like a six year 1390 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:30,840 Speaker 2: track record that he's not gonna listen to anybody. But 1391 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 2: I also like it's the weird thing where you know, 1392 01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:36,840 Speaker 2: he could have been the face of the league and 1393 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 2: now the opposite is true as well, like what is 1394 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 2: the trade market for John Morant? You know, like like 1395 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 2: if he's not going to get along with this coach. 1396 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,559 Speaker 2: And I know it's maybe a little bit early to 1397 01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:48,120 Speaker 2: presume this, but it's like, like you said, they're not 1398 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 2: They didn't totally tear it down when they traded Desmond Bane, 1399 01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,439 Speaker 2: but they're not really in position to compete and so 1400 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 2: doesn't get along with the coach. So then the question 1401 01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:59,760 Speaker 2: becomes they're kind of in the middle ground as an organization. 1402 01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:03,240 Speaker 2: But then it's like, I mean, let's just call spat 1403 01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:06,800 Speaker 2: a spade. I mean, would pick a team would you 1404 01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 2: want to trade for John Morant? Because I think everything 1405 01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:13,080 Speaker 2: that you said, I don't think this guy is just, 1406 01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 2: oh he needs a fresh start somewhere else. I think 1407 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:19,439 Speaker 2: it's he's stuck in his ways, he doesn't want to 1408 01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:23,120 Speaker 2: listen to anybody, and like right now, like I don't 1409 01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 2: know any other way to put it, he's just a loser, 1410 01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:28,920 Speaker 2: Like he's a losing basketball player, he's got a losing attitude, 1411 01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:32,360 Speaker 2: he's I don't know, there's just there's not much redeemable 1412 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:36,280 Speaker 2: about him right now as a as anything. And I'm 1413 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,679 Speaker 2: not saying he's a terrible human being. And I'm sure 1414 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 2: you know people who know him better than I do 1415 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:43,439 Speaker 2: would would say otherwise, But like, I don't know that 1416 01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:47,320 Speaker 2: he's tradeable, but he's not helping Memphis win. The organization 1417 01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 2: is now taking the coach a side on this. I 1418 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:53,600 Speaker 2: just think it's a totally unique, very interesting situation, the 1419 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,559 Speaker 2: likes of which I don't know that we've really ever 1420 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:56,840 Speaker 2: seen here in recent memory. 1421 01:09:57,320 --> 01:09:59,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think all that's really well said. 1422 01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 3: And the point again is like you're bringing, at least 1423 01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:08,320 Speaker 3: for now, you're bringing him out content. You're kind of 1424 01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:11,160 Speaker 3: bringing a cancer. I hate to say that about anybody. 1425 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:14,200 Speaker 3: And he's still very young, and there's potentially still a 1426 01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 3: lot of basketball left in him, a lot of talent 1427 01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,600 Speaker 3: left in him, but right now he's broken. He's fundamentally 1428 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 3: broken as a teammate. With the organization supporting the coach, 1429 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 3: and even it seems like you don't even have a 1430 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 3: lot of players coming out defending John in any way, 1431 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:35,000 Speaker 3: shape or form. At this point, you're bringing in somebody 1432 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,200 Speaker 3: that could wreck your locker room, that also might not 1433 01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:39,800 Speaker 3: be able to get it done on the floor the 1434 01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:42,040 Speaker 3: way you need him to, and is gonna be out 1435 01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:46,400 Speaker 3: for himself. It feels like I think I don't know 1436 01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:48,200 Speaker 3: what the fix is, Like, I don't want him on 1437 01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:49,719 Speaker 3: my team right now. 1438 01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:51,840 Speaker 4: I would love to see him get fixed and come 1439 01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:53,320 Speaker 4: back and all this work. 1440 01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:55,280 Speaker 3: But you know what, we said that same thing after 1441 01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:59,120 Speaker 3: the incident with the video and all that. We said, Man, 1442 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 3: this could be the most amazing redemption story. And I'm 1443 01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:04,240 Speaker 3: saying the same thing now. That's what I mean a 1444 01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:07,719 Speaker 3: few years later, in twenty twenty five, Like, I still 1445 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:11,880 Speaker 3: want that to be true, but I'm starting to become 1446 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:15,920 Speaker 3: a bit more skeptical that that's in the cards. Well. 1447 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:20,040 Speaker 2: And I just think if he hasn't learned from everything 1448 01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:23,280 Speaker 2: just in the last two or three years, like what 1449 01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 2: makes anyone think he's gonna learn? I mean, if he's 1450 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 2: still you know, basically throwing a temper tantrum in the 1451 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:31,400 Speaker 2: locker room to the point that he has to be suspended. 1452 01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:33,880 Speaker 2: Like I said, it's not like, oh, if you trade 1453 01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:37,720 Speaker 2: him here or you trade him there, you know, like 1454 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:41,599 Speaker 2: there are plenty of examples in sports history where a 1455 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:44,760 Speaker 2: fresh start is good for everybody, and it certainly might 1456 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:47,439 Speaker 2: be good for the Memphis Grizzlies, But I don't know 1457 01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 2: that like him just going somewhere else is what he needs. 1458 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 2: I think he needs an attitude reboot. I think he 1459 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 2: needs a reboot of a lot of things. And it's, just, 1460 01:11:57,800 --> 01:11:59,760 Speaker 2: like I said, a unique situation because I think people 1461 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,559 Speaker 2: forget yet, Like even I'm actually a little surprised even 1462 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:06,679 Speaker 2: just reading this. He's he just turned twenty six years old. Yeah, yeah, 1463 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,599 Speaker 2: I thought he was actually a little bit older. He 1464 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 2: can be redeemable, but the first place that it starts 1465 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 2: is with him, you know. 1466 01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, It's it's like I said, it's sad. I don't 1467 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 3: want to give up on him. I just I'm skeptical 1468 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:22,519 Speaker 3: right now. And I think I'm speaking now more more 1469 01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 3: or less like how a team would have to like 1470 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:28,920 Speaker 3: what would it take to bring him in? And do 1471 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:30,720 Speaker 3: you have what it would take? Do you have the 1472 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:35,439 Speaker 3: structures in place to where you could bring him in 1473 01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:39,040 Speaker 3: and potentially help him out. I just think he needs 1474 01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:41,599 Speaker 3: something off the floor, and I don't know where that 1475 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:44,519 Speaker 3: comes from, and I don't know whether or not somebody 1476 01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:47,360 Speaker 3: can get through to him that. Look, you know, your 1477 01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 3: future hangs into balance here. You need to get this 1478 01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 3: thing together. You need to get this thing right. You're 1479 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:56,519 Speaker 3: you're too good a player, and there's there's still so 1480 01:12:56,680 --> 01:12:57,800 Speaker 3: much left in you. 1481 01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:02,200 Speaker 4: But right now I'm just I don't know what the 1482 01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:02,760 Speaker 4: fix is. 1483 01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:05,080 Speaker 3: I don't know what the answer is, but I'm saddened 1484 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:07,680 Speaker 3: by it because it does feel like it's it's a 1485 01:13:07,920 --> 01:13:11,880 Speaker 3: huge missed opportunity of somebody that that just seemed to 1486 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:15,680 Speaker 3: be on a rocket ship of a trajectory. 1487 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:22,200 Speaker 2: Memphis Grizzlies sitting at four and six overall, they did 1488 01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:26,720 Speaker 2: take care on Friday night of J Mart's Dallas Mavericks. 1489 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:31,160 Speaker 2: You know, John Morrett versus Nico Harrison, John mort gets 1490 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:34,200 Speaker 2: the upper hand. He did play on Friday night twenty 1491 01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:38,840 Speaker 2: one points, five rebounds, thirteen assists, thirty two minutes of 1492 01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 2: play for him, So he did play the most minutes 1493 01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 2: of any Memphis Grizzly. So maybe the page has been turned, 1494 01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:47,200 Speaker 2: or maybe it was just the Dallas Mavericks or that 1495 01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:50,120 Speaker 2: bad that was an NBA Cup game. By the way, 1496 01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:52,880 Speaker 2: J Martin, I know you. I know you have your 1497 01:13:52,920 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 2: tab at home. You know of all of them. 1498 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,600 Speaker 3: I've got my brackets. Yes, I don't even know if 1499 01:13:57,600 --> 01:13:59,519 Speaker 3: there are brackets at this point. It's like I heard 1500 01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:03,120 Speaker 3: it was play or something like that, and it's so exciting. 1501 01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,720 Speaker 3: You know that Kawhi is not going to play, and 1502 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,200 Speaker 3: you got load management happening during this thing, and Josh 1503 01:14:09,240 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 3: Getty's getting his ankles completely shattered by DeAndre Hunter. Like 1504 01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:15,160 Speaker 3: NBA Cup is in full effect right now. 1505 01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:18,880 Speaker 2: NBA Cup is in full effect. You know who never 1506 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:21,120 Speaker 2: takes load management, Steve de Sager. He'll be back next 1507 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,799 Speaker 2: to give you a recap of a busy Saturday in sports. 1508 01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:31,519 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Welcome back, everybody, Fox Sports Radio er 1509 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:37,440 Speaker 2: tors Jason Martin broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. 1510 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 2: It is twelve forty eight Eastern Time, and as we 1511 01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 2: do every week around this time, let's get it over 1512 01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 2: the news desk. Steve de Sager, What is trending? 1513 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:48,479 Speaker 3: Sir? 1514 01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:52,400 Speaker 11: What a finish in college football today? A game you 1515 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 11: probably didn't hear about. It was number two ranked Montana 1516 01:14:56,360 --> 01:14:59,760 Speaker 11: in the FCS at home, trying to hold on to 1517 01:14:59,880 --> 01:15:04,280 Speaker 11: a victory against a red shirt freshman quarterback from Eastern Washington, 1518 01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:06,799 Speaker 11: which scored with a minute to go to get close, 1519 01:15:07,760 --> 01:15:11,920 Speaker 11: recovered the onside kick with no timeouts, drove down to 1520 01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:14,960 Speaker 11: the five yard line and with under ten seconds to 1521 01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 11: go out of timeouts, down five, so they can't kick 1522 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:19,439 Speaker 11: a field goal. 1523 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:21,600 Speaker 12: This on Script's TV. 1524 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 2: Scopper Well Spike in Finals. 1525 01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 4: At the ball ten, that's game over. 1526 01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 2: They can't stop it. 1527 01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:33,120 Speaker 11: The red shirt freshman quarterback went to spike the ball 1528 01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:35,920 Speaker 11: and the football flew out of his hands for a fumble, 1529 01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:38,120 Speaker 11: and by the time a teammate fell on it, the 1530 01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 11: clock had run out. And that's how Eastern Washington loses 1531 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:45,560 Speaker 11: twenty nine to twenty five at number two ranked Montana. 1532 01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:48,280 Speaker 12: Wow, that would be tough to get over. 1533 01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 11: A great week for the University of South Florida football team. Now, 1534 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:56,360 Speaker 11: when the first college football playoff rankings came out this 1535 01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:59,639 Speaker 11: past Tuesday, notable that there was kind of a line 1536 01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:02,800 Speaker 11: of d marcation outside the top ten. Yeah, Notre Dame's 1537 01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:05,519 Speaker 11: number ten, they'd be in the playoff right now, but 1538 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:08,880 Speaker 11: Texas and Oklahoma would each be out as of now 1539 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:13,799 Speaker 11: at number eleven and twelve. Because Virginia, as an ACC champ, 1540 01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,839 Speaker 11: would get in even though it's not a top ten team, 1541 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,920 Speaker 11: and Memphis was labeled the best of the group of 1542 01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 11: five teams, it would get in. 1543 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:23,040 Speaker 2: Well. 1544 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 11: Then Memphis lost at home last night to Tulane thirty 1545 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:29,599 Speaker 11: eight thirty two. Memphis had been eight and one. South 1546 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,200 Speaker 11: Florida looking good now at seven and two. They won 1547 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 11: Thursday night at home easily against ut San Antonio, and 1548 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:39,719 Speaker 11: James Madison is now eight and one after winning at 1549 01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:44,000 Speaker 11: Marshall today. Meanwhile, Yukon, how about this stat on their 1550 01:16:44,040 --> 01:16:48,120 Speaker 11: notes You're drop go ahead. It's incredible that he has 1551 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:52,360 Speaker 11: twenty five touchdown passes and no interceptions, Joe Fanano. I 1552 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:55,439 Speaker 11: have not watched a Yukon game, I will admit this year. 1553 01:16:56,320 --> 01:17:00,240 Speaker 11: But anyone who has twenty five tds and no touchdown, 1554 01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:04,599 Speaker 11: no interceptions, AP says, to do that in the first 1555 01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 11: ten games of your team season hasn't been done since 1556 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:10,599 Speaker 11: Marcus Mariota at Oregon over a decade. 1557 01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 2: You're saying he's gonna win the Heisman potentially, yes. 1558 01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 11: Exactly, that's you might as well just forget that Indiana 1559 01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 11: who what was his name? 1560 01:17:16,600 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 12: I don't even remember. 1561 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 2: This is who cares by the way, you cut all 1562 01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:22,320 Speaker 2: three losses in overtime. 1563 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:26,240 Speaker 11: That's right at Syracuse overtime, at Delaware, overtime, double overtime 1564 01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 11: at Rice. 1565 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:29,680 Speaker 3: You know they'se still count as losses, right they do? 1566 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 2: Remember Less Miles when the year they made the championship 1567 01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,439 Speaker 2: game is a two loss team. He's like, we have 1568 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 2: zero losses in regulation. That's right, That was his argument. 1569 01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 2: This isn't the NHL. Just for the record, you don't 1570 01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:44,599 Speaker 2: get points for that. Cal won and overtime at fifteenth 1571 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 2: ranked Louisville twenty nine to twenty six. For California, that 1572 01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 2: snaps a fourteen game losing streak against ranked opponents. It 1573 01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:56,320 Speaker 2: had been five years since they've beaten a ranked team. 1574 01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 2: That was against Oregon, So who are the worst two 1575 01:17:59,240 --> 01:18:02,640 Speaker 2: on that list.

I 1646 01:21:57,720 --> 01:21:59,720 Speaker 2: don't know, It's just it was quiet week. It was 1647 01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:01,439 Speaker 2: a fun one week. It was a good week. But 1648 01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:05,960 Speaker 2: that that earth shattering moment you know that we've been 1649 01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 2: waiting for, you know, that we've had basically every other week, 1650 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:10,720 Speaker 2: whether it was Oregon winning at Penn State, Texas A 1651 01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:15,760 Speaker 2: and M destroying LSU, Florida State beating Alabama in week one. 1652 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 2: I mean, there just wasn't that crazy signature moment. Doesn't 1653 01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:22,280 Speaker 2: mean it wasn't a great day, but kind of par 1654 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:25,640 Speaker 2: for the courses we hit the final three weeks of 1655 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:28,720 Speaker 2: the regular season. Cannot believe we're down there three weeks here, 1656 01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:32,000 Speaker 2: j Mark. But everything just kind of went the way 1657 01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 2: that we kind of thought it would go. 1658 01:22:33,520 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, and look, you're gonna get those weeks. I mean, 1659 01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:38,040 Speaker 3: eventually some of these good teams have to actually show 1660 01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:39,960 Speaker 3: themselves and they have to escape, and that's. 1661 01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:40,360 Speaker 4: What you got. 1662 01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 3: The very the positive is you got some drama, right 1663 01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:45,760 Speaker 3: Indiana escape, but you got a great catch and a 1664 01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:50,960 Speaker 3: great final drive, and then you had just a solid 1665 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:53,679 Speaker 3: finish for Oregon to where they were able to kick 1666 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:57,000 Speaker 3: that field goal and get out of Iowa. 1667 01:22:58,160 --> 01:23:01,160 Speaker 4: You get the teams that you still want to see. 1668 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:04,040 Speaker 3: I believe, in the College Football Playoff, they get out 1669 01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,439 Speaker 3: with wins, but you're still drawn in to watch the games. 1670 01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 3: And then you see some of the other teams that 1671 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:13,879 Speaker 3: are a little bit lower like a Virginia for example. 1672 01:23:14,080 --> 01:23:17,639 Speaker 3: Louisville teams like that that kind of winnow themselves out 1673 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:18,120 Speaker 3: and then. 1674 01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:19,960 Speaker 4: You have a pretty cool finish. 1675 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:22,760 Speaker 3: I think the I think Vanderbilt Auburn gave you some 1676 01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:25,559 Speaker 3: some fireworks there. So it was just kind of more 1677 01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:28,679 Speaker 3: of a routine Saturday, but you at least got some 1678 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:33,160 Speaker 3: late game heroics, late game dramatics. So it was just 1679 01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:36,040 Speaker 3: it was just it was a solid day at college football, 1680 01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:37,240 Speaker 3: maybe not a banner day. 1681 01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:40,800 Speaker 2: Top ten drop well, the top twenty five dropped this week. 1682 01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:43,559 Speaker 2: Ohio State number one, Indiana two A and M three, 1683 01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:47,880 Speaker 2: Alabama four, Georgia ol miss BYU, Texas Tech, Oregon, Notre 1684 01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:51,639 Speaker 2: Dame rounding out the top ten. Did anything stand out 1685 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 2: to you about the top twenty five that dropped this week? 1686 01:23:54,320 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 2: It felt like for the most part, uh didn't really 1687 01:23:57,160 --> 01:23:59,559 Speaker 2: feel like there was a lot of you know, anger 1688 01:23:59,640 --> 01:24:02,680 Speaker 2: or fresh with the rankings as they came out. 1689 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:06,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, not terrible other than just Notre Dame being above 1690 01:24:07,000 --> 01:24:10,880 Speaker 3: Miami is a little bit tough, But I think there 1691 01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:13,519 Speaker 3: are some other factors that went into that as well 1692 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:14,680 Speaker 3: as thinks. 1693 01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:16,559 Speaker 2: That is that the factor they're not going to be 1694 01:24:16,600 --> 01:24:17,000 Speaker 2: a good. 1695 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:18,439 Speaker 3: Part of it. I think it's I do think that's 1696 01:24:18,479 --> 01:24:20,280 Speaker 3: part of it. But I mean, if you've got if 1697 01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:22,080 Speaker 3: you look at it from a record standpoint and the 1698 01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:24,280 Speaker 3: fact that they beat them and all that, like, I 1699 01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:26,160 Speaker 3: can understand why you would wring your hands at that, 1700 01:24:26,200 --> 01:24:28,759 Speaker 3: but also by the end of the year, I feel 1701 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:30,920 Speaker 3: like that was gonna work itself out. But I don't 1702 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:33,160 Speaker 3: disagree with what you're saying. I don't know how much 1703 01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 3: you need to reward Miami. I think the question is 1704 01:24:36,479 --> 01:24:40,519 Speaker 3: just was was notre Dame over seeded a little bit? 1705 01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:43,720 Speaker 3: That might be really the only argument. The only other 1706 01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:47,040 Speaker 3: argument was do you put Texas A and M above Indiana? 1707 01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:50,000 Speaker 3: I would not have, although I think I would this week. 1708 01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 3: I think because of even though they won that game 1709 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:55,240 Speaker 3: and it was a tough environment. I think it's also 1710 01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:58,160 Speaker 3: pretty impressive for Texas A and M to go spank 1711 01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:02,840 Speaker 3: Missouri on the road by three touchdowns, and Missouri again 1712 01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:08,519 Speaker 3: just they don't beat anybody that's ranked. That's that's kind 1713 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:10,920 Speaker 3: of their problem, and that that to me, would be 1714 01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:13,439 Speaker 3: concerning if I was looking at Eli Drinkwitz to become 1715 01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:16,719 Speaker 3: my next coach somewhere else. Missouri, it's not like they're 1716 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 3: stacked with talent or anything like that. But eventually, like 1717 01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,000 Speaker 3: you're not bringing them in there to beat the teams 1718 01:25:21,080 --> 01:25:23,200 Speaker 3: everybody else can be you. You're bringing them in there 1719 01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 3: to beat everybody else, and you have not seen that 1720 01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:28,679 Speaker 3: from Missouri at all. 1721 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:33,840 Speaker 2: I see Owen six against ranked teams the last two seasons. 1722 01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:37,559 Speaker 2: Eli Trikowitz asked about it after the game. I give 1723 01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:40,920 Speaker 2: him credit for being transparent. He said, Yeah, there's some 1724 01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:43,559 Speaker 2: pretty good teams that we've played. They are good teams, 1725 01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,519 Speaker 2: but I don't do a good enough job coaching. So 1726 01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:48,680 Speaker 2: credit to him for kind of you know, whether he 1727 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:51,040 Speaker 2: really believes that or not, you know, saying, you know, 1728 01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:53,880 Speaker 2: putting it on his shoulders real quick. 1729 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 4: Again. 1730 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:57,679 Speaker 2: I don't know that there's like a crazy take here, 1731 01:25:58,560 --> 01:25:59,960 Speaker 2: but I think it's the same take we've had the 1732 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,439 Speaker 2: last like five, six, seven, eight weeks. Texas A and 1733 01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:08,840 Speaker 2: M just coming in just steamrolling everyone. You know, I 1734 01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:11,360 Speaker 2: don't know, you know, I'll say this, and I think 1735 01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:13,560 Speaker 2: we've talked about this through the the you know, the 1736 01:26:13,600 --> 01:26:16,200 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks is that I wasn't somebody that 1737 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,519 Speaker 2: necessarily thought that we needed to expand the playoff. But 1738 01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:21,639 Speaker 2: I will say as we get deeper into this portal 1739 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,559 Speaker 2: and il Era, there's so much parody. Where there's four 1740 01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:27,559 Speaker 2: or five really good teams at the top of the SEC, 1741 01:26:27,720 --> 01:26:31,040 Speaker 2: there's at least three in the big ten. You know, listen, 1742 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 2: I don't know how much of the Texas Tech Game 1743 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:35,880 Speaker 2: you you got to watch today, That defense at the 1744 01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:37,920 Speaker 2: very least is legit. I mean by you could do 1745 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 2: absolutely nothing, Notre Dame's good whatever. So I just bring 1746 01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 2: it up because you know, the sport at the top 1747 01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:47,960 Speaker 2: is awesome. And I guess why I brought it up 1748 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:49,880 Speaker 2: with A and M is like, I don't know if 1749 01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:52,479 Speaker 2: they're they should be two three, if they're even the 1750 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 2: best team in the SEC, But like the way they 1751 01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:58,559 Speaker 2: just kick the crap out of everyone week after week, 1752 01:26:58,720 --> 01:27:01,840 Speaker 2: no letdown. You thought maybe after the LSU went nope, 1753 01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:05,519 Speaker 2: came right out, took care of business. Great story going 1754 01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:07,040 Speaker 2: on in aguland. 1755 01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:12,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, again, I think that the more you watch them, 1756 01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 3: the more it's just they're just kind of proven their 1757 01:27:14,840 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 3: bona fides and they've still got a couple of tough 1758 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:20,240 Speaker 3: games obviously left to go. But Marcel Reed only has 1759 01:27:20,360 --> 01:27:22,800 Speaker 3: nine incompletions in the game. And then you look at 1760 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:26,719 Speaker 3: the Texas Tech BYU story as well, Like I feel 1761 01:27:26,760 --> 01:27:30,000 Speaker 3: pretty good about putting Texas Tech in before the season, 1762 01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:32,439 Speaker 3: Like I got a couple I had South Carolina in there, 1763 01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 3: so it's not like I've bad in a thousand had 1764 01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:38,080 Speaker 3: Penn State like everybody else did. But Texas Tech does 1765 01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:40,120 Speaker 3: seem like like, I don't know that they were their 1766 01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:43,719 Speaker 3: championship worthy, but they're definitely proving themselves to be playoff worthy. 1767 01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:45,599 Speaker 2: Right to ask you a question because I think this 1768 01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:48,960 Speaker 2: is going to be a conversation with them if they 1769 01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 2: keep winning make the playoff? Do you care at all 1770 01:27:52,160 --> 01:27:55,880 Speaker 2: about all the NIL stuff? Real quick that you know, 1771 01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,559 Speaker 2: they've been very vocal that you know, there are multiple 1772 01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 2: articles today, you know, raw Stellinger said that as a 1773 01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:06,880 Speaker 2: as an athletic department, they raised forty nine million dollars 1774 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:09,840 Speaker 2: in NIL and obviously it didn't all go to football, 1775 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:13,120 Speaker 2: but this was kind of, you know, the last year 1776 01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:17,479 Speaker 2: where in theory it's kind of an unlimited cap, you know, 1777 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:19,920 Speaker 2: Like I said, multiple articles over the last couple of days, 1778 01:28:19,920 --> 01:28:22,320 Speaker 2: and I think their stance is one, it was a 1779 01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:26,080 Speaker 2: unique situation where it's basically an uncapped world, and two, 1780 01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:30,280 Speaker 2: basically everybody does it we're just the ones, you know, 1781 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:33,599 Speaker 2: Like we're just the ones that aren't afraid to admit that, yes, 1782 01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:38,000 Speaker 2: we are spending money. I guess, just my question, do 1783 01:28:38,360 --> 01:28:40,480 Speaker 2: you care? Does it bother you? 1784 01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:41,120 Speaker 4: Do you care? 1785 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:44,640 Speaker 2: Does it matter? Because that is going to be a 1786 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:45,639 Speaker 2: story if they keep winning. 1787 01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:50,280 Speaker 3: No mean either not in this era. I mean, if 1788 01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:53,600 Speaker 3: they want to, they're just taking advantage of the resources 1789 01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:56,320 Speaker 3: that they have, which is the expectation you would think 1790 01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:58,640 Speaker 3: of anybody that was trying to compete for a championship. 1791 01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:03,479 Speaker 3: I think it would be insane to assume anything else. 1792 01:29:03,760 --> 01:29:06,000 Speaker 3: Really at this point, Like, I'm not bothered by it 1793 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:07,639 Speaker 3: at all. If they keep on winning, all they're doing 1794 01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:10,720 Speaker 3: is proving this concept and it's just gonna lead to 1795 01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:12,639 Speaker 3: more of this. But this is where we're going anyway. 1796 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:15,720 Speaker 2: Well, and I know it's easy to say it when 1797 01:29:15,760 --> 01:29:19,120 Speaker 2: you're sitting at eight and one, but following Herbstreet were 1798 01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:22,240 Speaker 2: on the call today and they you know, Foller said 1799 01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:24,439 Speaker 2: at some point he's like, they're good players all over 1800 01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,160 Speaker 2: the transfer portal whatever. You still got to pick the 1801 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,559 Speaker 2: right ones. And again, I know it's easy to say 1802 01:29:29,600 --> 01:29:32,120 Speaker 2: that when you're eight and one. I do think there's 1803 01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 2: something to it because LSU spent a lot of money 1804 01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:37,960 Speaker 2: in NIL this year, Texas A and m and the 1805 01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:40,400 Speaker 2: Jimbo Fisher era, we believe spend a lot of money 1806 01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:43,960 Speaker 2: in NIL, like just because you have money. You know, 1807 01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:45,880 Speaker 2: it's no different. You know, we had the conversation with 1808 01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:48,599 Speaker 2: Disager a few weeks ago with the Dodgers about, yeah, 1809 01:29:48,640 --> 01:29:50,920 Speaker 2: they spend a lot of money, but so did the Mets, 1810 01:29:50,920 --> 01:29:52,559 Speaker 2: and the Mets didn't even make the playoffs, and the 1811 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:54,439 Speaker 2: Mets started the season with the higher payroll. So like, 1812 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:56,960 Speaker 2: I don't know that I care. I don't even know 1813 01:29:57,000 --> 01:30:01,120 Speaker 2: how many other people care. I just think that you know, 1814 01:30:01,160 --> 01:30:04,280 Speaker 2: they've they've been so transparent about it. Yes, they got 1815 01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:06,720 Speaker 2: some guys that they probably wouldn't have gotten without it, 1816 01:30:07,160 --> 01:30:09,439 Speaker 2: but all of these schools do. I mean, there are 1817 01:30:09,479 --> 01:30:12,960 Speaker 2: guys that wouldn't be at pick a school, doesn't matter, 1818 01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:15,479 Speaker 2: Texas wherever. Like, I don't know, it's just it's not 1819 01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:17,920 Speaker 2: something that bothers me. But I will say this, that 1820 01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:21,120 Speaker 2: defense is legit. And of course, you know, because this 1821 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:24,439 Speaker 2: is the world that we live in. You know, everybody 1822 01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:27,800 Speaker 2: tried to immediately discar Oh, how is BYU a top 1823 01:30:27,880 --> 01:30:28,439 Speaker 2: ten team? 1824 01:30:28,520 --> 01:30:29,240 Speaker 3: They stink? 1825 01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:31,920 Speaker 2: Well, all I can tell you is this, that defense 1826 01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 2: is insane. They came into the game today top ten 1827 01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:37,760 Speaker 2: in the country and scoring defense and total defense, the 1828 01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:42,160 Speaker 2: number one rush defense. They're excellent. And I think you 1829 01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:45,000 Speaker 2: know you said it a minute ago. It's like, yeah, 1830 01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,439 Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna win four or five games 1831 01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:49,920 Speaker 2: in the in the playoff, but if they get in, 1832 01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:53,280 Speaker 2: and they probably will at minimum make the Big the 1833 01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:56,160 Speaker 2: Big twelve championship game at this point because they have 1834 01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:58,920 Speaker 2: head to head wins over the well, I guess head 1835 01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:01,320 Speaker 2: to head wins over two teams that are tied for 1836 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:03,800 Speaker 2: second place. Big twelve is a little bit of a mess, 1837 01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 2: less than a mess than than the ACC. But but 1838 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:09,280 Speaker 2: they should get into the Big twelve Championship game. They 1839 01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:13,160 Speaker 2: only have two games left. They look really good. I'm 1840 01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 2: rambling at this point real quick. I guess we should 1841 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:20,960 Speaker 2: talk about the ACC. What what sure? What an adventure? 1842 01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:24,240 Speaker 4: Choose that's that's also a football conference? 1843 01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:28,479 Speaker 2: It is This isn't the time of the place. There's 1844 01:31:28,479 --> 01:31:31,960 Speaker 2: gonna be a conversation about auto bids after this. But uh, 1845 01:31:32,280 --> 01:31:35,920 Speaker 2: Virginia was undefeated coming into the evening. They lose to 1846 01:31:36,040 --> 01:31:39,960 Speaker 2: Wake Forest at home Louisville was tied atop the standings. 1847 01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:44,800 Speaker 2: They lose to that longtime ACC power col at home. 1848 01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:48,080 Speaker 2: Yeah it is worth doing. By the way, Uh, the 1849 01:31:48,160 --> 01:31:51,880 Speaker 2: game that probably in week one about you know, six 1850 01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:54,160 Speaker 2: o'clock Eastern time, we thought might be a top five 1851 01:31:54,240 --> 01:31:57,960 Speaker 2: matchup Florida State and Clemson they played today. Neither of 1852 01:31:57,960 --> 01:32:02,360 Speaker 2: them is in first place, but yeah, somebody's got to 1853 01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:04,559 Speaker 2: win that league. By the way, Duke los to Yukon today. 1854 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:06,839 Speaker 2: They're five and four but four one in the ACC. 1855 01:32:07,080 --> 01:32:09,479 Speaker 2: So what a weird league? 1856 01:32:09,479 --> 01:32:09,639 Speaker 3: Man? 1857 01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:10,320 Speaker 2: What a weird league? 1858 01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:10,519 Speaker 4: Do you? 1859 01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:12,519 Speaker 2: Is there a team that you like more than others? 1860 01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:14,920 Speaker 2: Georgia Tech, by the way, eight and one only lost 1861 01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:17,040 Speaker 2: last week. They still have Georgia in the regular season 1862 01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:19,000 Speaker 2: as well. Is there a team you like at all 1863 01:32:19,120 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 2: a little bit? Maybe? Possibly? 1864 01:32:21,280 --> 01:32:26,760 Speaker 3: Maybe not really? Yeah, I mean, look, there there's some 1865 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:29,479 Speaker 3: good teams there, but there's nobody I'm looking at and 1866 01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:32,559 Speaker 3: I'm just like, man, what a juggernaut like Miami's been 1867 01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:37,120 Speaker 3: proven out to be. Carson Beck's just he's just not 1868 01:32:37,400 --> 01:32:41,439 Speaker 3: the guy on a consistent enough basis. And that's not 1869 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:44,240 Speaker 3: their only issue, but that certainly has been a problem 1870 01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:46,479 Speaker 3: for them. And then you look down the line. I 1871 01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:49,960 Speaker 3: never really believed in Virginia. They were living dangerously for 1872 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:53,000 Speaker 3: week after week after week. Louisville's a good team, but 1873 01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:55,960 Speaker 3: certainly not I would say a great team. They've they've 1874 01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 3: maybe even overperformed what you would expect looking at the roster, 1875 01:32:59,280 --> 01:33:03,040 Speaker 3: and Brahms just great coach, but everybody else is just 1876 01:33:03,400 --> 01:33:06,599 Speaker 3: they can get beat. They're not particularly impressive. I don't 1877 01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:09,720 Speaker 3: think anybody that gets in from that conference is going 1878 01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:13,519 Speaker 3: to make any hay at all in a college football playoff. 1879 01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:15,639 Speaker 3: It's just kind of a lost season for that conference. 1880 01:33:16,120 --> 01:33:20,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I still think Miami has the talent, but they 1881 01:33:20,160 --> 01:33:22,760 Speaker 2: you know, they're sitting at seven and two. Two of 1882 01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:25,280 Speaker 2: their final three are on the road, and obviously they 1883 01:33:25,320 --> 01:33:29,760 Speaker 2: just lost at SMU last week, and they're in a 1884 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:32,160 Speaker 2: weird spot where they're three and two in the league, 1885 01:33:32,200 --> 01:33:34,280 Speaker 2: but two of their losses are the teams that are 1886 01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:36,160 Speaker 2: either tied or ahead of them in the standing. So 1887 01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 2: like the likelihood that all of the teams that you 1888 01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:41,280 Speaker 2: need to lose are going to lose the games that 1889 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:45,439 Speaker 2: you need to lose probably not looking very good. So, yeah, 1890 01:33:45,479 --> 01:33:49,080 Speaker 2: the ACC will be represented in the college football Playoff. 1891 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:52,080 Speaker 2: I just don't know for how long, and I certainly 1892 01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:55,960 Speaker 2: don't know by who, as there is currently a one two, three, four, 1893 01:33:56,240 --> 01:34:00,479 Speaker 2: five way tie in the lost column in the league. 1894 01:34:00,479 --> 01:34:03,800 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Aertors Jason Martin, broadcasting live from the 1895 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:07,479 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Studios.

He's only defense, Sign them up, cross 1911 01:34:51,960 --> 01:34:52,639 Speaker 2: them off the list. 1912 01:34:52,680 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 11: Then only defense in the league without an interception this season, 1913 01:34:56,280 --> 01:34:58,599 Speaker 11: and he just traded away two defensive starters. 1914 01:34:59,320 --> 01:34:59,679 Speaker 12: Yikes. 1915 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:03,439 Speaker 11: Four late night games in college football. Nebraska held down 1916 01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:06,840 Speaker 11: at UCLA twenty eight twenty one. UNLV coach by Dan 1917 01:35:06,920 --> 01:35:09,880 Speaker 11: Mullen now seven and two after winning easily at Colorado 1918 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:11,000 Speaker 11: State forty two to ten. 1919 01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:11,800 Speaker 2: I think Mullen is. 1920 01:35:11,760 --> 01:35:14,040 Speaker 12: Still arguing with the refs on the sideline. 1921 01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:16,600 Speaker 11: Though we're cold too, very cold on the side and 1922 01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:21,040 Speaker 11: constantly argumentative. He could coach Arizona. Oregon State is two 1923 01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:24,360 Speaker 11: and seven and they've given up defensive touchdown to Sam 1924 01:35:24,439 --> 01:35:28,280 Speaker 11: Houston two minutes left. Sam Houston oh to eight, is 1925 01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:31,800 Speaker 11: winning at Oregon State twenty one to seventeen, and San 1926 01:35:31,840 --> 01:35:34,719 Speaker 11: Diego State has just not shown up at Hawaii tonight. 1927 01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:37,280 Speaker 11: It's thirty one six for the home team in the 1928 01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:40,559 Speaker 11: third quarter. Number one Ohio State nine and oh after 1929 01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:43,240 Speaker 11: winning at Purdue thirty four to ten over three hundred 1930 01:35:43,280 --> 01:35:47,320 Speaker 11: yards passing for Julian Say and Jeremiah Smith ten receptions 1931 01:35:47,360 --> 01:35:50,160 Speaker 11: one hundred and thirty seven yards in a score Purdue 1932 01:35:50,240 --> 01:35:52,680 Speaker 11: oh and seven in conference. Their time of possession was 1933 01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:56,200 Speaker 11: nineteen minutes today. Ohio State next two games will be 1934 01:35:56,200 --> 01:36:00,519 Speaker 11: hosting UCLA and hosting Rutgers Indiana rank number two ten 1935 01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:03,120 Speaker 11: and oh after winning at Penn State on a late 1936 01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:06,160 Speaker 11: touchdown pass. The game winning drive was ten plays eighty 1937 01:36:06,240 --> 01:36:09,880 Speaker 11: yards in a minute fifteen. The Hoosiers will host Wisconsin 1938 01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:13,840 Speaker 11: next Saturday and then have a week off. Wisconsin upset 1939 01:36:13,920 --> 01:36:17,800 Speaker 11: Washington thirteen to ten. Badgers forced to fumble on a 1940 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:21,280 Speaker 11: sack third quarter and then scored their only touchdown two 1941 01:36:21,360 --> 01:36:26,679 Speaker 11: plays later. Wisconsin had lost six straight. So first Power 1942 01:36:26,720 --> 01:36:29,800 Speaker 11: Conference win of the season for the Badgers. So what 1943 01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:33,240 Speaker 11: are the Power Conference teams that have no wins against 1944 01:36:33,280 --> 01:36:38,920 Speaker 11: Power Conference opponents? Well, Boston College, Purdue, Oklahoma State, Arkansas, 1945 01:36:38,960 --> 01:36:44,639 Speaker 11: and Penn State as well. Wow, Thegers Badgers had under 1946 01:36:44,640 --> 01:36:48,480 Speaker 11: fifty yards passing and still won the game. They apparently 1947 01:36:48,520 --> 01:36:50,920 Speaker 11: hadn't done that in a conference win in over a 1948 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:53,559 Speaker 11: decade since the game against Nebraska, and that was the 1949 01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:56,080 Speaker 11: game Melvin Gordon ran for four hundred yards, So we 1950 01:36:56,160 --> 01:36:58,719 Speaker 11: got a bit of a caveat on that one. Texas 1951 01:36:58,800 --> 01:37:01,840 Speaker 11: A and m undefeated rank third one at Missouri thirty 1952 01:37:01,840 --> 01:37:05,479 Speaker 11: eight seventeen. Maszoo's freshman quarterbacks seven of twenty two passing 1953 01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:07,800 Speaker 11: with a fumble. Aggi's led twenty one nothing in the 1954 01:37:07,840 --> 01:37:11,040 Speaker 11: third quarter.

And it's just amazing how the 2051 01:42:14,439 --> 01:42:16,640 Speaker 3: league shifts from week to week in terms of what 2052 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:18,960 Speaker 3: is said and of course you got Draymond Green, Colin 2053 01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:21,920 Speaker 3: dak Prescott a bomb. We don't want to forget that 2054 01:42:22,640 --> 01:42:24,679 Speaker 3: as well. But no, I mean I don't have any 2055 01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:26,720 Speaker 3: major takes. I still feel like the teams that we 2056 01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:29,160 Speaker 3: thought were gonna be good are The One thing that 2057 01:42:29,160 --> 01:42:34,439 Speaker 3: you are starting to see I think is Baltimore is 2058 01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:38,240 Speaker 3: not out of it. Yeah, and so maybe our pick's 2059 01:42:38,280 --> 01:42:39,880 Speaker 3: not going to be as bad as we thought. Now 2060 01:42:40,040 --> 01:42:42,439 Speaker 3: they don't have much room for error at this point, 2061 01:42:42,479 --> 01:42:46,000 Speaker 3: but that division is not as in stone for Pittsburgh. 2062 01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:48,840 Speaker 3: I just I'm not as sure about what they're if 2063 01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:51,120 Speaker 3: they're gonna be able to hold onto this long term. 2064 01:42:51,560 --> 01:42:56,760 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh five and three, Baltimore three and five, but they 2065 01:42:56,760 --> 01:42:59,720 Speaker 2: have won two in a row. They are playing Minnesota 2066 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:04,120 Speaker 2: on Sunday. Yeah, you pretty much hit on it. I 2067 01:43:04,120 --> 01:43:05,600 Speaker 2: think it's hard to take too much out of the 2068 01:43:05,640 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 2: Minnesota win. Too much to take It's hard for me 2069 01:43:09,800 --> 01:43:11,760 Speaker 2: to take too much out of the Indie loss. There 2070 01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 2: was one thing that from last week that I did 2071 01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:17,400 Speaker 2: want to mention really quick. If I oh my guy 2072 01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:23,080 Speaker 2: Sam Donald. Always loved that guy, sure, always loved that guy. 2073 01:43:23,439 --> 01:43:25,200 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what man I was watching Sunday Night 2074 01:43:25,240 --> 01:43:28,360 Speaker 2: football is texting to you guys. I just I got 2075 01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:31,200 Speaker 2: to own it. I was wrong on this guy. Three 2076 01:43:31,320 --> 01:43:34,000 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty yards passing four touchdowns. That game was 2077 01:43:34,040 --> 01:43:36,519 Speaker 2: basically over midway through the second quarter. I know the 2078 01:43:36,560 --> 01:43:40,200 Speaker 2: Washington Commanders aren't very good. Jayden Daniels got hurt late. 2079 01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:42,960 Speaker 2: I get all that, but I gotta give credit. Where's 2080 01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:46,360 Speaker 2: toe Sam Donald so far has played. I really thought, 2081 01:43:46,360 --> 01:43:49,439 Speaker 2: for people who may not remember my preseason take, I 2082 01:43:49,479 --> 01:43:52,840 Speaker 2: thought it was the perfect storm with Kevin O'Connell lost 2083 01:43:52,840 --> 01:43:55,519 Speaker 2: the games late that mattered, and I thought when he 2084 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:58,559 Speaker 2: went to a defensive head coach it would be a disaster. Instead, 2085 01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:02,120 Speaker 2: he is having his best seat of his career still early, 2086 01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:04,160 Speaker 2: but he's been awesome, So I gotta gi him credit. 2087 01:44:04,240 --> 01:44:06,080 Speaker 2: I'll tell you we're gonna ad anything. 2088 01:44:06,120 --> 01:44:07,920 Speaker 3: No, I don't have to add to it. I just 2089 01:44:07,920 --> 01:44:10,559 Speaker 3: backing you up. I mean, yeah, he's been everything that 2090 01:44:10,600 --> 01:44:14,680 Speaker 3: you would want, and it's it's made it well. I 2091 01:44:14,720 --> 01:44:16,880 Speaker 3: don't know. I mean, the Vikings are gonna be with 2092 01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:19,160 Speaker 3: the Vikings are, but you definitely look at Minnesota and 2093 01:44:19,200 --> 01:44:21,880 Speaker 3: you're just kind of like, hmm, did you know. 2094 01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:23,559 Speaker 4: What you had? Yeah? 2095 01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:23,960 Speaker 6: Or not. 2096 01:44:24,160 --> 01:44:26,280 Speaker 3: But look, there's still a lot of football left to 2097 01:44:26,320 --> 01:44:29,120 Speaker 3: be played, and so we need to see how this 2098 01:44:29,160 --> 01:44:31,280 Speaker 3: is actually going to pan out when we get to 2099 01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:33,599 Speaker 3: the end of the season, because I mean, Darnold played 2100 01:44:33,640 --> 01:44:38,280 Speaker 3: pretty dog one well at different times. The question is 2101 01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:39,960 Speaker 3: is he going to be able to hold that together? 2102 01:44:40,640 --> 01:44:42,439 Speaker 3: You know, as we get closer to the end of 2103 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:43,360 Speaker 3: the season. 2104 01:44:43,920 --> 01:44:46,040 Speaker 2: We will see. As you said, it's a long season, 2105 01:44:46,080 --> 01:44:49,200 Speaker 2: stuff can change, obviously. Look, you know the situation with 2106 01:44:49,360 --> 01:44:52,439 Speaker 2: the quarterbacks in Minnesota right now not working out well 2107 01:44:52,479 --> 01:44:54,479 Speaker 2: for Kevin O'Connell even coming off a win.

Let's start with this. 2112 01:45:03,200 --> 01:45:06,000 Speaker 7: The New England Patriots are going down to Tampa Bay 2113 01:45:06,040 --> 01:45:08,560 Speaker 7: to take on the Buccaneers. Martin Weiss earlier called it 2114 01:45:08,640 --> 01:45:11,280 Speaker 7: the Tom Brady Bowl as it's his two former teams. 2115 01:45:11,360 --> 01:45:14,040 Speaker 7: But uh, Tampa Bay's favored by two and a half 2116 01:45:14,040 --> 01:45:15,840 Speaker 7: points at home. What do you guys think? 2117 01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:17,719 Speaker 2: What do you got, ja, Martin? 2118 01:45:23,439 --> 01:45:27,519 Speaker 3: I got New England? Oh, okay, Man Brabel just knows 2119 01:45:27,560 --> 01:45:32,080 Speaker 3: how to coach sure, and the injury woes for Tampa 2120 01:45:32,120 --> 01:45:35,720 Speaker 3: Bay are just collecting, and so Mayfield is having to 2121 01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:39,320 Speaker 3: do so much with so little right now. Just I 2122 01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:42,679 Speaker 3: don't know. I mean, you've had Irving missing for a month, 2123 01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:44,960 Speaker 3: you haven't had Evans much of this season at all, 2124 01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:46,880 Speaker 3: and of course he's pretty much done for the year, 2125 01:45:47,360 --> 01:45:50,560 Speaker 3: likeg Buka has been banged up, Godwin hasn't been himself. 2126 01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:52,960 Speaker 3: I just I feel like they're beaten up and the 2127 01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 3: Patriots are winning close games. Drake may is continuing to improve, 2128 01:45:57,120 --> 01:46:00,400 Speaker 3: and Rabel kind of has that defense playing nasty, which 2129 01:46:00,439 --> 01:46:03,360 Speaker 3: is exactly what I witnessed here when I covered the Titans, 2130 01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:07,280 Speaker 3: you know, daily for years throughout his entire tenure here. 2131 01:46:07,800 --> 01:46:12,120 Speaker 3: I've seen this before. Usually when this role starts, it 2132 01:46:12,160 --> 01:46:14,720 Speaker 3: does not stop. And so I feel like they're going 2133 01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:16,360 Speaker 3: to be able to go ahead and beat Tampa. 2134 01:46:16,960 --> 01:46:20,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll go ahead and take Tampa at home. And 2135 01:46:20,600 --> 01:46:24,320 Speaker 2: that's not some big indictment on the New England Patriots. 2136 01:46:24,360 --> 01:46:27,120 Speaker 2: I will say. You look at the wins. Obviously the 2137 01:46:27,160 --> 01:46:31,280 Speaker 2: great wins several weeks ago now against Buffalo, but you 2138 01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:35,400 Speaker 2: know New Orleans Tennessee, which was obviously the revenge game 2139 01:46:35,439 --> 01:46:39,639 Speaker 2: for Rabel the Browns Falcons by one point last week. 2140 01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:42,599 Speaker 2: It should be a really intriguing game. I will say that. 2141 01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:45,559 Speaker 2: And obviously, look, I think the Patriots are. I'm not 2142 01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:49,799 Speaker 2: somebody that like because the Patriots had, you know, fifteen 2143 01:46:49,920 --> 01:46:54,080 Speaker 2: years of excellence that I can't enjoy watching them be 2144 01:46:54,160 --> 01:46:56,519 Speaker 2: good again. Like I have no I'm from New England, 2145 01:46:56,520 --> 01:46:58,559 Speaker 2: but I have no emotional attachment one way or the other. 2146 01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:00,439 Speaker 2: Like I know some people were like, oh, here we 2147 01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:02,120 Speaker 2: go again with the Patriots. I just think it's an 2148 01:47:02,160 --> 01:47:04,439 Speaker 2: awesome story. And I'll say this, you know, I think 2149 01:47:04,600 --> 01:47:08,240 Speaker 2: is you know, there's been so many guys injured, so 2150 01:47:08,240 --> 01:47:10,200 Speaker 2: many guys banged up, so many guys whatever. Just like 2151 01:47:10,320 --> 01:47:13,000 Speaker 2: Drake May showing up and doing it every single week 2152 01:47:13,120 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 2: has been awesome. It's been fun. So I'm enjoying the 2153 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:21,960 Speaker 2: storyline in general. But young team quarterback on the road, 2154 01:47:22,800 --> 01:47:25,040 Speaker 2: I'll go ahead and take Tampa Bay in this one 2155 01:47:25,080 --> 01:47:27,439 Speaker 2: to win at home. All right? 2156 01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:29,800 Speaker 7: Next up, how about the Monday night game? Got the 2157 01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:32,679 Speaker 7: Philadelphia Eagles going to Green Bay to take on the Packers. 2158 01:47:33,479 --> 01:47:35,479 Speaker 7: Packers are actually favored by a point and a half 2159 01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:39,639 Speaker 7: at home here, But what do you got our uh, 2160 01:47:40,240 --> 01:47:45,439 Speaker 7: our Jordan love take is you know, it's something I 2161 01:47:45,479 --> 01:47:50,880 Speaker 7: don't know what it is. You know, Yeah, they didn't 2162 01:47:50,920 --> 01:47:54,120 Speaker 7: play well last week. You know, he played fine, but 2163 01:47:54,760 --> 01:47:59,040 Speaker 7: don't get the win at Carolina through for a lot 2164 01:47:59,040 --> 01:48:02,080 Speaker 7: of yards, zero touch downs, one interception. I just bring 2165 01:48:02,120 --> 01:48:06,599 Speaker 7: it up because I've never really been a believer he's 2166 01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:10,160 Speaker 7: playing fine, But it just feels like with the Packers, 2167 01:48:10,160 --> 01:48:10,919 Speaker 7: am I crazy? 2168 01:48:10,960 --> 01:48:14,000 Speaker 2: It's just like, never know what you're gonna get from them. 2169 01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:16,760 Speaker 2: Week to week losses to the Browns and the Panthers, 2170 01:48:17,160 --> 01:48:20,400 Speaker 2: including a home loss to the Panthers, you know, struggle 2171 01:48:20,439 --> 01:48:25,400 Speaker 2: with the Cardinals, tie with the Cowboys. Am I crazy? Like, 2172 01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:27,040 Speaker 2: I just I don't know what I'm getting from them 2173 01:48:27,080 --> 01:48:27,639 Speaker 2: week to week. 2174 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:30,559 Speaker 3: No, I don't either. I mean that was that loss 2175 01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:34,320 Speaker 3: is just so inexplicable last week. It just it makes 2176 01:48:34,320 --> 01:48:38,120 Speaker 3: you question everything. But again, I'm just I just don't 2177 01:48:38,120 --> 01:48:40,080 Speaker 3: know how I believe how I feel about that quarterback, 2178 01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:43,640 Speaker 3: which is exactly your point. And the you know, the 2179 01:48:43,680 --> 01:48:49,240 Speaker 3: other thing is their offense was so dependent upon Tucker Craft. Yeah, 2180 01:48:49,280 --> 01:48:52,080 Speaker 3: and now he's done for the year. That is substantial. 2181 01:48:52,200 --> 01:48:54,120 Speaker 3: I don't know who's stepping into that. I mean, they've 2182 01:48:54,120 --> 01:48:56,080 Speaker 3: got some guys there, but I don't know who's stepping 2183 01:48:56,120 --> 01:48:59,280 Speaker 3: into that role to fill that kind of offense. I 2184 01:48:59,280 --> 01:49:02,240 Speaker 3: don't like them at all. I definitely see them getting 2185 01:49:02,240 --> 01:49:03,040 Speaker 3: beat on Sunday. 2186 01:49:03,680 --> 01:49:08,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Eagles coming off of the bye. They 2187 01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:11,120 Speaker 2: you know, they did look good in that final game 2188 01:49:11,160 --> 01:49:16,280 Speaker 2: before the bye, they got Saquon going. I just they're 2189 01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 2: so weird, Like I don't really actually know what to 2190 01:49:19,479 --> 01:49:21,200 Speaker 2: make of them big picture. I will say I think 2191 01:49:21,240 --> 01:49:25,519 Speaker 2: it's kind of an interesting, you know statement game is 2192 01:49:25,560 --> 01:49:30,519 Speaker 2: not the right game, but like what are you? Where 2193 01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:33,479 Speaker 2: are you going? What is this season? Is it just 2194 01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:35,760 Speaker 2: going to be Like I think this is the game 2195 01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:38,120 Speaker 2: where it's like, is it just gonna be this weird 2196 01:49:38,200 --> 01:49:43,240 Speaker 2: thing where you get a new team every year every week? 2197 01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:47,240 Speaker 2: Excuse me, new storyline. Sometimes AJ Brown's involved, sometimes he's not. 2198 01:49:47,360 --> 01:49:50,880 Speaker 2: Sometimes Saquon Barkley's evolved, sometimes he's not. Or are you 2199 01:49:51,040 --> 01:49:54,280 Speaker 2: going to have an identity as a team again? They're 2200 01:49:54,320 --> 01:49:56,400 Speaker 2: coming off of the bye, they're on the two game 2201 01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:59,559 Speaker 2: winning streak, took care of the Giants right before, and 2202 01:49:59,640 --> 01:50:01,800 Speaker 2: to me, yeah, I think that's what's most interesting. And 2203 01:50:01,840 --> 01:50:04,120 Speaker 2: I think obviously having a national stage to show it 2204 01:50:04,360 --> 01:50:06,479 Speaker 2: and then I will say, like, back half of the 2205 01:50:06,520 --> 01:50:10,519 Speaker 2: schedule not necessarily easy. You've already gotten your two games 2206 01:50:10,520 --> 01:50:14,120 Speaker 2: against the Giants out of the way. You still got 2207 01:50:14,479 --> 01:50:17,840 Speaker 2: the Lions, The Bears are obviously intriguing. The Chargers are 2208 01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:21,040 Speaker 2: pretty banged up right now at Buffalo as well. So like, 2209 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:24,080 Speaker 2: there's still a lot of big games left on the schedule. 2210 01:50:24,160 --> 01:50:27,360 Speaker 2: You have to build some momentum and we'll see, you 2211 01:50:27,400 --> 01:50:29,519 Speaker 2: know where they're at coming off of the Monday night game. 2212 01:50:29,760 --> 01:50:31,960 Speaker 2: Still one more real quick? You sure? 2213 01:50:32,479 --> 01:50:35,559 Speaker 7: How about the Baltimore Ravens going to Minnesota to take 2214 01:50:35,600 --> 01:50:39,840 Speaker 7: on the Vikings. Got as the road team. Baltimore's favored 2215 01:50:39,840 --> 01:50:41,639 Speaker 7: by four and a half points here, but who you got. 2216 01:50:41,600 --> 01:50:48,479 Speaker 3: Jmark here again quarterback? And then on the other side, 2217 01:50:48,520 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 3: you've got one team seemingly trending in the right direction. 2218 01:50:51,439 --> 01:50:55,400 Speaker 3: I still am not sure about the offense in Minnesota. 2219 01:50:55,800 --> 01:50:57,400 Speaker 4: I like Baltimore in this game. 2220 01:50:57,439 --> 01:50:59,519 Speaker 3: I just think this is a this is a rough ask, 2221 01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:03,280 Speaker 3: even though Baltimore's defense has not been very good, especially 2222 01:51:03,320 --> 01:51:06,519 Speaker 3: against the run. So maybe you can get Aaron Jones loose, 2223 01:51:06,600 --> 01:51:08,680 Speaker 3: and maybe Jordan Mason can do some things for you 2224 01:51:08,720 --> 01:51:11,800 Speaker 3: at the goal line. I just feel like this is 2225 01:51:11,840 --> 01:51:14,920 Speaker 3: the kind of game where Baltimore's offense explodes, and I 2226 01:51:14,960 --> 01:51:18,000 Speaker 3: feel like Monday we're talking about Baltimore being fully back. 2227 01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:20,680 Speaker 2: That's exactly how I feel. I don't have a ton 2228 01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:24,960 Speaker 2: to add, but took care of business, did exactly everything 2229 01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:28,840 Speaker 2: that you wanted last Thursday night against Miami. And I 2230 01:51:28,840 --> 01:51:30,400 Speaker 2: think the other thing too, you get a couple extra 2231 01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:34,320 Speaker 2: days off, and so I listen, I liked the JJ 2232 01:51:34,439 --> 01:51:38,960 Speaker 2: McCarthy story coming in. I wasn't someone that just didn't 2233 01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:43,080 Speaker 2: believe on him because he wasn't, you know, a crazy like. 2234 01:51:43,280 --> 01:51:45,439 Speaker 2: You know, we know what his role was at Michigan. 2235 01:51:45,520 --> 01:51:47,599 Speaker 2: And I wasn't somebody that was super down on him 2236 01:51:47,600 --> 01:51:49,640 Speaker 2: because he didn't have to do X Y or Z 2237 01:51:49,840 --> 01:51:52,760 Speaker 2: or had great teammates or whatever. But you know, I 2238 01:51:52,800 --> 01:51:55,200 Speaker 2: need to see some consistency before I expect them to 2239 01:51:55,280 --> 01:51:56,800 Speaker 2: just go and take care of business. And I think 2240 01:51:56,840 --> 01:51:58,880 Speaker 2: the other thing too, is they didn't play that well, 2241 01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:02,200 Speaker 2: at least offensively. It's the Lions last week, So bring 2242 01:52:02,240 --> 01:52:04,479 Speaker 2: it up to say I like Baltimore in this game 2243 01:52:04,560 --> 01:52:06,559 Speaker 2: as well. Tell you what we'll come back. We'll wrap 2244 01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:10,760 Speaker 2: a couple intriguing stories from the week that we got 2245 01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:14,439 Speaker 2: to get to Week ten of the NFL.

I think it's better. 2281 01:54:05,320 --> 01:54:08,000 Speaker 2: It was a great story that you sent. I loved 2282 01:54:08,080 --> 01:54:09,840 Speaker 2: everything about it. I mean, I could set it up, 2283 01:54:09,880 --> 01:54:12,160 Speaker 2: but it was kind of something that you that kind 2284 01:54:12,160 --> 01:54:13,880 Speaker 2: of kind of kind of came across your radar. I'll 2285 01:54:13,920 --> 01:54:16,280 Speaker 2: give you the floor to tell America a little bit 2286 01:54:16,280 --> 01:54:16,640 Speaker 2: about it. 2287 01:54:16,960 --> 01:54:20,080 Speaker 3: I mean, in short, Rico Daldell, who has just had 2288 01:54:20,080 --> 01:54:27,800 Speaker 3: a pretty incredible run in Carolina, scored a touchdown and 2289 01:54:28,320 --> 01:54:34,800 Speaker 3: did the basically East West Keegan or Key versus or Key. Sorry, 2290 01:54:34,880 --> 01:54:38,760 Speaker 3: Key and Peel sketch that they're pretty famous for the 2291 01:54:38,800 --> 01:54:44,200 Speaker 3: East West kind of they do the names and Hinkle mccrinkleberry, who. 2292 01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:50,000 Speaker 4: Let's just say he did some thrusts. 2293 01:54:50,400 --> 01:54:53,560 Speaker 3: After he scored a touchdown. Sure, and so Dawdell did this, 2294 01:54:53,600 --> 01:54:55,280 Speaker 3: and this has actually been done I think by at 2295 01:54:55,360 --> 01:54:58,640 Speaker 3: least one other player, but the NFL did not care 2296 01:54:58,720 --> 01:55:02,280 Speaker 3: for it, and they chose to find him and it 2297 01:55:02,360 --> 01:55:04,880 Speaker 3: became a little bit of a hullbaloo and some people 2298 01:55:04,960 --> 01:55:07,000 Speaker 3: rolled their eyes and called it no fun league and 2299 01:55:07,040 --> 01:55:10,000 Speaker 3: all this. They said it was lewde and unacceptable and 2300 01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:12,720 Speaker 3: all this. But of course, all he was doing was 2301 01:55:12,720 --> 01:55:16,879 Speaker 3: paying homage to this hilarious skit that's become pretty famous 2302 01:55:16,920 --> 01:55:21,400 Speaker 3: through the last few years since debuting on Comedy Central. 2303 01:55:21,800 --> 01:55:27,360 Speaker 3: And it led to basically Dave Canals talking to or 2304 01:55:27,400 --> 01:55:30,880 Speaker 3: the Carolina Panthers organization getting in touch with Keegan Michael Key, 2305 01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:34,040 Speaker 3: who has done this before. He did it at Penn 2306 01:55:34,120 --> 01:55:36,360 Speaker 3: State as well when he did the James Franklin thing, 2307 01:55:36,840 --> 01:55:40,240 Speaker 3: which was hilarious as well years ago, and he basically said, look, 2308 01:55:40,760 --> 01:55:43,240 Speaker 3: I can't believe this happened. We're upset that this happened 2309 01:55:43,280 --> 01:55:45,920 Speaker 3: to you. Kind of told him to stand by it, said, 2310 01:55:45,960 --> 01:55:48,840 Speaker 3: you know, the rules on the Key and pol league 2311 01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:51,120 Speaker 3: must be a little bit different than the NFL, kind 2312 01:55:51,120 --> 01:55:53,800 Speaker 3: of tongue in cheek. There also donated I think fifteen 2313 01:55:53,840 --> 01:55:58,680 Speaker 3: thousand dollars to charity on behalf of Rico Daudel. So 2314 01:55:58,720 --> 01:56:00,640 Speaker 3: it was just a really cool story. They turned it 2315 01:56:00,680 --> 01:56:03,440 Speaker 3: into something even more positive and Keeth and Michael Key 2316 01:56:03,560 --> 01:56:05,080 Speaker 3: kind of being a part of it just made it 2317 01:56:05,120 --> 01:56:05,720 Speaker 3: even cooler. 2318 01:56:06,360 --> 01:56:08,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a fun story and I thought the 2319 01:56:08,840 --> 01:56:11,360 Speaker 2: part obviously that was cool was that they donated to 2320 01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:16,160 Speaker 2: a charity of Rico Dado's choice. But yeah, it was fun. 2321 01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:21,480 Speaker 2: It was different, and it's a good story overall. Anything 2322 01:56:21,480 --> 01:56:23,120 Speaker 2: else you're looking forward to, you know, we talked a 2323 01:56:23,120 --> 01:56:26,080 Speaker 2: little bit about Week ten, the big games in the 2324 01:56:26,200 --> 01:56:28,560 Speaker 2: NFL this coming week. Shouldn't mention, by the way, next 2325 01:56:28,560 --> 01:56:31,840 Speaker 2: week a big week of college football. Alabama hosting Oklahoma, 2326 01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:36,000 Speaker 2: Texas traveling to Georgia. Says, we got a minute or 2327 01:56:36,040 --> 01:56:42,120 Speaker 2: two left. I'll say this. Alabama has looked okay the 2328 01:56:42,240 --> 01:56:46,280 Speaker 2: last couple of games. Remember they yeah, survived South Carolina 2329 01:56:47,080 --> 01:56:51,640 Speaker 2: Tonight against LSU, they get to win twenty to nine, 2330 01:56:52,320 --> 01:56:56,840 Speaker 2: but overall struggled to run the ball yet again. Oklahoma, 2331 01:56:56,880 --> 01:56:58,800 Speaker 2: we know how good that defense is. I just think 2332 01:56:58,800 --> 01:57:01,720 Speaker 2: both those games will be interesting and for people who 2333 01:57:02,800 --> 01:57:07,240 Speaker 2: don't like kind of the sec dominant slash arrogance in 2334 01:57:07,280 --> 01:57:10,880 Speaker 2: the world of college football. If Oklahoma and Texas win 2335 01:57:11,360 --> 01:57:13,320 Speaker 2: next week, even if one of the two wins, but 2336 01:57:13,360 --> 01:57:16,600 Speaker 2: certainly if both of them do, it opens up a 2337 01:57:16,800 --> 01:57:19,280 Speaker 2: crazy can of worms where if my math is correct, 2338 01:57:19,280 --> 01:57:23,120 Speaker 2: you'd have six teams with one or two losses Ole 2339 01:57:23,280 --> 01:57:27,560 Speaker 2: Miss right now, Old Miss, Texas, A and M Alabama. 2340 01:57:28,360 --> 01:57:32,880 Speaker 2: Georgia is four, Vandy I believe is five, So then 2341 01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:34,920 Speaker 2: Texas and Oklahoma, if they were to win, would be 2342 01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:38,360 Speaker 2: six and seven. So that would be the chaos scenario. 2343 01:57:38,920 --> 01:57:41,480 Speaker 2: But those are the two marquee games next Saturday, Jimar. 2344 01:57:41,920 --> 01:57:46,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're good ones. All lives are going to be 2345 01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:50,360 Speaker 3: on Arch again. I don't know what to make of 2346 01:57:50,360 --> 01:57:52,800 Speaker 3: what Texas can do against Georgia, but I would say 2347 01:57:52,840 --> 01:57:56,840 Speaker 3: Georgia and Alabama are both beatable football teams, depending on 2348 01:57:56,840 --> 01:57:58,600 Speaker 3: the week, depending on the opponent. If you show up 2349 01:57:58,600 --> 01:58:01,640 Speaker 3: with your best, you can beat them. I don't know 2350 01:58:01,680 --> 01:58:03,760 Speaker 3: whether or not Texas and Oklahoma are going to be 2351 01:58:04,240 --> 01:58:07,280 Speaker 3: able to do that. I actually feel like Bama will 2352 01:58:07,320 --> 01:58:12,600 Speaker 3: handle Oklahoma. But I'm very curious about that Texas Georgia game. 2353 01:58:12,640 --> 01:58:17,160 Speaker 3: Texas needs it really badly, and Georgia has, I don't know. 2354 01:58:17,320 --> 01:58:19,480 Speaker 3: There have been times when they felt a little bit flat. 2355 01:58:19,600 --> 01:58:22,960 Speaker 3: Now usually that means Gunner Stockton's gone pretty crazy, and 2356 01:58:22,960 --> 01:58:24,600 Speaker 3: they've been able to kind of pull that out, and 2357 01:58:24,640 --> 01:58:28,880 Speaker 3: they ended up really dominating on Saturday in a game 2358 01:58:28,880 --> 01:58:30,800 Speaker 3: that some said, oh, that's not a great matchup for 2359 01:58:30,840 --> 01:58:33,040 Speaker 3: Georgia against Mississippi State. Well it turned out to be 2360 01:58:33,160 --> 01:58:36,760 Speaker 3: just fine. But so I feel like probably Georgia and 2361 01:58:36,840 --> 01:58:38,840 Speaker 3: Bama are both going to win. But if I had 2362 01:58:38,840 --> 01:58:41,160 Speaker 3: to pick one that I looked at and said, eh, 2363 01:58:41,440 --> 01:58:44,520 Speaker 3: we'll see, I actually would think Georgia is probably more 2364 01:58:44,640 --> 01:58:45,240 Speaker 3: likely there. 2365 01:58:46,040 --> 01:58:48,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what to make a Georgia man. 2366 01:58:49,240 --> 01:58:52,640 Speaker 2: You know, I told you I mentioned earlier. I texted 2367 01:58:52,680 --> 01:58:55,880 Speaker 2: you guys throughout the week. I thought Georgia Mississippi State 2368 01:58:55,920 --> 01:58:59,040 Speaker 2: was potential upset potential. Remember Mississippi State not only did 2369 01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:01,920 Speaker 2: they just win their first game last week, they had 2370 01:59:01,960 --> 01:59:06,440 Speaker 2: taken both Texas and Tennessee to overtime at home and 2371 01:59:06,480 --> 01:59:08,960 Speaker 2: it was never even really close. So Georgia, the team 2372 01:59:09,040 --> 01:59:13,000 Speaker 2: that barely survived Florida, barely survived Old Miss. You know, 2373 01:59:13,080 --> 01:59:16,480 Speaker 2: they get a couple favorable calls in the Auburn game. Uh, 2374 01:59:16,520 --> 01:59:18,840 Speaker 2: they take care of business. They play Texas next week. 2375 01:59:18,920 --> 01:59:21,440 Speaker 2: Kind of an interesting stretch for Georgia. They still have 2376 01:59:21,520 --> 01:59:26,400 Speaker 2: Texas and Georgia Tech. We talked earlier Georgia Tech, you know, 2377 01:59:27,000 --> 01:59:30,200 Speaker 2: just in a weird, weird spot atop the ACC. The 2378 01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:33,400 Speaker 2: ACC looking like a one bid league, and I mentioned 2379 01:59:33,400 --> 01:59:36,760 Speaker 2: it in a second ago. Oklahoma playing at Alabama. Oklahoma 2380 01:59:36,800 --> 01:59:39,520 Speaker 2: Alabama will actually be the three to thirty game, and 2381 01:59:39,560 --> 01:59:42,160 Speaker 2: then the seven to thirty Eastern Time game will be 2382 01:59:42,200 --> 01:59:46,360 Speaker 2: Georgia and Texas. So plenty of good football. So I 2383 01:59:46,360 --> 01:59:49,880 Speaker 2: think that's it for a show, Jay mart good stuff. 2384 01:59:49,920 --> 01:59:53,120 Speaker 2: Bernie Fratto coming up next, Yeah, Bernie Fratto coming up next. 2385 01:59:53,120 --> 01:59:57,200 Speaker 2: Bernie Fratto of The Bernie Fratto Show.
