Week ten is 14 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: the apex of the season. Let us cherish, let us 15 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 2: bathe in the wonder that is, knowing about everybody, what 16 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: they are, what they are not knowing. We have big 17 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: matchups this last month and this is I think you 18 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 2: have the sound ready, This is the very start of 19 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: novembert is it not. 20 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: Ord alan erotic? Ord alan eotic. It's such a long sound. 21 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: It is bookended by the Turkey gobble. It is really 22 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: one of the goofiest things we've done. I've had this 23 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: on the soundboard for a generation now on the show 24 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,119 Speaker 1: now only bring it out when we have to remember 25 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: when Bert was out of coaching for a while, we 26 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: couldn't use it. 27 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was like an analyst for the Patriots. He 28 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: was just out of our universe entirely. 29 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 1: It was awful. Couldn't use it then, but we can 30 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: use it now. So yeah, big month ahead for Illinois. 31 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: As we talked about on the show that we put 32 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: out yesterday after the college football playoff rankings, which you 33 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: can go and find either on our website at soliverble 34 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: dot com or really anywhere you get your podcasts.

Yeah, November they're. 37 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: A little stinker because they do get Michigan, I think 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: the week before Ohio State, and should they win the 39 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 2: West and get a shot at Ohio State. If Ohio 40 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: State beats Michigan, presumably they could be in line to 41 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 2: be a top five stinker and be two top five 42 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: I guess at the time type teams. But it's one 43 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: of those talking points and it's across the sport that 44 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: in week ten, heading into this incredible weekend of games, 45 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: let us cherish this.

We name the Saturdays, 75 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: we look at the slate, we name the Saturdays. We 76 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: try to give you the vibe via a nickname for 77 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: the week ahead. In the world of college football. It 78 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: is we can. As you said, it's sort of the 79 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: pinnacle of college football. I've got a name. You were 80 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: touting your name. You were talking your name up as 81 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: maybe one of the worst things you've ever done. That's 82 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: so why don't we just get the bad out of 83 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: the way first before I swoop in like a white 84 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: night and give you the real name for this week 85 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: for all of our listeners to be like, hmm, Dans 86 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: is weird. We like that one. That's right. So I 87 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: looked at the weather reports. 88 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: Hi. 89 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if you looked at the weather report. 90 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: I mean, once an aspiring meteorologist, but I looked at 91 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: the weather rather weather report, excuse me. And there is 92 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: rain across this great land, something called an atmospheric river 93 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: in the Pacific Northwest. I know Oregon plays in Colorado, 94 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 2: and so you know, the more southernmost states don't have 95 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: as much rain this coming weekend, but it could be 96 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 2: affecting things all over the place, slipping and s just 97 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 2: you know, it could be a weather related situation across 98 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 2: this great land. And also because I talk about Week ten, 99 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: and when you look at the headliners of Week ten, LSU, Alabama, 100 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: of course, Georgia, Tennessee. Especially that there is something juicy, 101 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 2: There is something alluring about all of these enormous football games. 102 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 2: So I'd like to welcome this great land to super 103 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 2: moist salad. 104 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 3: Loist, loist, loist, loist, loist, loist, loist, loist, loist, loist. 105 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: One more in there for you, thank you, yeah, yeah, 106 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: And I'd like to be very specific. At the same time. 107 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 2: That was Matt LeBlanc saying moist. Why I could have 108 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: used LeBlanc. I could have used David Booriannis. I could 109 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: have used Ed Sheeran, I could have used Christian Slater, 110 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 2: but I went with LeBlanc because his just had the 111 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,119 Speaker 2: the proper gravitas. 112 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 3: For loist, Loist Loist. 113 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: So there it is, super Moist Saturday. I've got this 114 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: as a Southern Comfort Saturday. That's cute. Southern Comfort created 115 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: in New Orleans, the creator moved to Tennessee. Now it's 116 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: prominently featured in a drink called Alabama Slammer. It touches 117 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: three of the four states, three of the four programs 118 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: to an extent that are involved in the biggest matchups 119 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: of the weekend. I didn't have a sound. I couldn't 120 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: find Lebump. I couldn't find I looked LeBlanc, didn't say 121 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: it any anywhere. 122 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 2: I mean, you could have done an eight bit skinner 123 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 2: type riff or something like that for Southern Comfort Saturday. 124 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: But instead I am giving the universe loist loist Loist. 125 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: Let's get into week ten, time of the week, so look, uh, 126 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: before we get into the full fledged action, here the 127 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: window after nine weeks of this thing fogging up, our 128 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: window of opportunity we're looking out there. When can we 129 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: get out be amongst the people, go see cats, run errands, 130 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: what have you. We finally have a very clear answer 131 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: for when the window of opportunity is in week ten. 132 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: If you must be out amongst the people, do it early. 133 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, do it early. Early is your window. You've 134 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: got until about three thirty pm Eastern time. Take the 135 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: family out, go to one of those farms. I don't 136 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: know if it's cold where you're at right now. It's 137 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: probably a little colder there, But like, take the kiddo's 138 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: out to one of those farms, a hay ride. I 139 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: don't know if they're still picking pumpkins. It's probably a 140 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: little bit past due on that front. But enjoy the 141 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: crisp fall air while you can run a five k. 142 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: Maybe go play eighteen. I don't know what you're into. 143 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: Send us pictures at solid Verbo on Twitter or Instagram 144 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: or Facebook, or just email soliverbal Gmail. 145 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 2: Here's tie cell phone number if you want to text 146 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: him slow motion video of you running a five k? 147 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: Are you ready to start with six to one? Oh? 148 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: Is that the area code? Don't go there, please, we're 149 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: not doing this. Four A weight verb one call four 150 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: a weight verb one. That's good. That's guys, you're out 151 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: there or I think you can text that too. I 152 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I've never tried it. So that is your 153 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: early window. That is the window in which you can 154 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: go out and do things that you got to do. 155 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: That is not to say that you shouldn't watch your 156 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: team if they're playing early. Again, I emphasize I don't 157 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: want you to skip the games if you don't want to. 158 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: Of course, you know if you have to, if you 159 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: got to, if you're if you're in the midst of 160 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: a negotiation, right, if you're in the midst of a 161 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: negotiation with you a significant other who's not as into 162 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: college football as you are, maybe push something early. That's 163 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: what Ty's saying, right as correct. That is correct. Why 164 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: don't we get started with that? Aforementioned early slate, The 165 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: headliner in which I believe is Texas Tech versus Undefeated 166 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: now number seven TCU TCU at home. They're about a 167 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: nine and a half point favorite. I knew, and this 168 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: one is on Fox. My normal reaction to a game 169 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 1: to align like this would be to tell you reflexively 170 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: to take the points in a shootout, right that's sort 171 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: of my ethos here on the show. I did have 172 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,199 Speaker 1: a little bit more time to go through this game 173 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 1: this week, and I think my informed opinion is now 174 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: a little bit different in that I'm not sure this 175 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: is a shootout, and I'm not sure taking the points 176 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: as a wise move. Okay, why is that? Two reasons? 177 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: First off, of things that run counter to Texas Tech 178 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: in this matchup, They've got a turnover margin of negative seven. 179 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: That may not mean a lot to you without context 180 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: if you're driving in the car. Negative seven. What does 181 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: that mean? By contrast, it means they're like the worst 182 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: in college football, one of the worst in college football 183 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: at turning the ball over at least in the margin. 184 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: From a margin standpoint, TCU on the flip sid his 185 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: top ten TCU is plus eight in the country on 186 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: that front, So they're not shooting themselves in the foot 187 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: by turning the ball over. Texas Tech is better, I 188 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: think than they were a year ago, but still very 189 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: mistake prone. Also, Texas Tech is very susceptible to big plays, 190 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: and this has been a recurring theme for any of 191 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: the teams playing TCU. I said it before, they live 192 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: by the sword, they die by the sword. It's sort 193 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 1: of been the calling card for TCU, the big plays thing. 194 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: That is not to say the Tech defense is bad. 195 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: It really isn't bad, capital be bad. It's just that 196 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: one very specific tendency that I think pos is a 197 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: really obvious threat here. The same could be said about TCU, 198 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: if we're being honest. But I do think TCU is 199 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 1: better at delivering those big plays, and I do think 200 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: that comes back to bite Texas Tech in the long run. Here. 201 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: That's all to say, of course, the game is in 202 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: TCU as well. It's not a book ahead spot for TCU. 203 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: There are no situational things that I think are working 204 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: against the horn Frogs, So I think I like the 205 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: horn Frog's a great deal here. It's a bigger line 206 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: than I'm generally comfortable with. But I do think the 207 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: tendency is really favorite TCU. 208 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 2: I agree, and I don't think Texas Tech has been 209 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 2: as good. Leaving Lubbock last week gave me cause for 210 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 2: pause our favorite pet charity, and I am I'm sort 211 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: of out on the turnover pro nature of this offense 212 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 2: and where it's been lately. But Texas Tech is also 213 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: kind of a two faced team. Week to week, they've 214 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: been pretty much all over the place, and a lot 215 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 2: of that has to do with quarterback health, and they're 216 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,839 Speaker 2: getting healthier as we know. But yeah, I just both 217 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 2: you know, Schuck and Donovan Smith and Baron Morton have 218 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 2: all had turnover issues over the course of their careers, right, 219 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 2: and so that's what gives me a little bit of 220 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 2: trepidation here. So I'm gonna go TCU. I know Quinnjohnston 221 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: is a little bit beat up. Max Duggan has been 222 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: largely up but has had some downstretches this year in 223 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 2: bigger games. But even still, they've come back and looked 224 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: so strong. Kendrey Miller we've talked about before as being 225 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: a big weapon. I think I'm going TCU here as well. 226 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: And it's one of those things where it's hard to 227 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: find belief other than the fact that Texas Tech is improved. 228 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 2: They're improved, but the game is in TCU Frogs coming 229 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 2: off of a late emotional win against West Virginia but 230 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 2: still sometimes and what's that final number at the at 231 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: the time, recording nine and a half. Yeah, I think 232 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 2: they're good enough to win this game by double digits. 233 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm going Frogs. 234 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's also not a given that Tech's going 235 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: to make a bowl this season, despite a lot of 236 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: the good vibes in Lubbock. Again, they are better. I 237 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: don't think there's any doubt about that. But they do 238 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: need to peel off two wins here in they're remaining 239 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: four games against TCU this week Kansas, Iowa State in Oklahoma. 240 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: You know that feels like a tall order. I don't 241 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: think that's a given again, that they're getting in. So 242 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm on TCU here. Another point that 243 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: I think is very relevant. TCU is a veteran team. 244 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 1: You know, I've made the joke before. It's all the 245 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: same players, right, Yeah, got the spirit fingers going. I'm 246 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: yelling with my hands up. It's all the same guys. 247 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: Gary Patterson, what were you doing? But I think the 248 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: fact that it is a team with so much veteran 249 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: leadership that lends itself a bit to this is why 250 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: they're playing discipline football. They know each other, they have 251 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: been in the system for a while, albeit under a 252 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: different coach. I think all that stuff works to your 253 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: advantage when you get to November. They've covered the spread 254 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: eighty one percent, of the time. I don't think this 255 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: is going to be an instance where that changes. I 256 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: got him by eighteen forty two to twenty four somewhere 257 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: in that. 258 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, TC, even a down TC, if you believe in 259 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 2: the sort of universe controlling things from above, pulling the strings. 260 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 2: TCO has done even when they're down, very well against 261 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 2: Texas Tech these last few years. 262 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: Some other games in that early block that I think 263 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: are of interest Iowa versus Perdue, Iowa versus Purdue, Perdue 264 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: favored by four and a half points high noon on 265 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: FS one. Can we talk for a second, and maybe 266 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: this is far fetched, so stop me if you think 267 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: I'm nuts. Can we talk for a second about the 268 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 1: possibility of Iowa missing a bowl game? Sure? Yeah. Last 269 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: four games for the Hawk guys are Perdue on the road, Wisconsin, 270 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: at home, at Minnesota, and Nebraska. I hate to say that, 271 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: I think I'm actively at the point now where I'm 272 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: rooting against Iowa, where I'm actively rooting against them, not 273 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: because I have any beef with Iowa or the fan base. 274 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm doing it because I want to 275 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: support the fan base. Because missing a bowl game for 276 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: the first time since you know, however long. I know 277 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: their last losing season was back in twenty twelve, but 278 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: that's the kind of significant event in a program that 279 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: forces change, and it just feels like something needs to change, 280 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: you know. It's really frustrating to watch this week in 281 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: a week out. They're four and four right now, but 282 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: there's some decent enough teams on that remaining slate that 283 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: could definitely see Iowa having some difficulty even with a 284 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: really good defense. 285 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 2: Now, muck factor, who do you favor? Muck factors a lot? 286 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 2: You got a favor ile a lot of moisture. As 287 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 2: we talked about a lot of moisture happening in the 288 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 2: Midwest and environs all across this great country. I still 289 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 2: think I favored Perdue. I still think because of the 290 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 2: emergence of Devin Makabi. I saw somebody call them crazy legs. 291 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 2: I think Purdue is a more complete offense. The defense 292 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: has been quietly good. I'm still favoring Purdue here. So yeah, 293 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 2: give me Boilers. 294 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: It was five and a half that felt like a 295 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: lot four and a half. It's since come down a 296 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: little bit. I think I favor the boiler Makers. I'm 297 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: not confident in this result either okay, next game not 298 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: at all. Another game. Here in the early block, we've 299 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: got Florida going on the road to Texas A and M. 300 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: A and M favored by three and a half points. 301 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: You have a lean in this game. 302 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: I actually love A and M here. Really why Florida's 303 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 2: defense has been quietly very bad and I think it 304 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: could be one of the the keys for a lot 305 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 2: of people to get going in the back half of 306 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: there's schedule is the ability an opportunity to play against 307 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 2: Florida's defense. I think as much as I don't fully 308 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 2: trust techs A and M's offensive line, I like that 309 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 2: Wegman is getting momentum. I think he had the highest 310 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: rated true freshman game last week. I think I saw 311 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: that somewhere, depending on how much you believe in those 312 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: types of ratings services, and I don't know. I just 313 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 2: I think Moose Muhammad is getting going. I think there's 314 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 2: just there's a little bit of a rhythm on their 315 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,479 Speaker 2: quest to get to thirty points behind the Aggies right now, 316 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 2: and Florida is just they's such a bad tackling team 317 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: and they are just kind of a levy at this point. 318 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 2: So I'm going with it's in Texas, it's in excuse me, 319 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: college station? 320 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: Is it not correct? Yeah? Home team? 321 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 2: You know, I think moving in the right direction not great, 322 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: But moving the right direction on offense, yeah, give me 323 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 2: the AX. 324 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: I had an epiphany early on Monday morning when I 325 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: realized that, presumably now with Connor Wegman being the guy, 326 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: I get to make Wegman's jokes for the foreseeable future. Yeah. 327 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes the gods smile upon me. Shop local. Yeah. 328 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're planning any kind of southern 329 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: expansion into Texas, but potentially some nil ramifications if they 330 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 1: decide to do so. I'm with you. I think, on paper, 331 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: at least the A and M offense, at least maybe 332 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: this new revised version of the offense where they're scoring 333 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 1: twenty five or more points should be able to move 334 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: the ball in Florida. Florida is a bad defense. I 335 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: got this as something like thirty one to twenty four 336 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: A and M. Great. I feel pretty good about it. 337 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: Some other games here, let me just rifle through these quick. 338 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 1: So they're getting a thirty, they're getting a thirty thirty thirty, Yeah, 339 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: that's correct. Some other games here, let me just rattle 340 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: these off. You can tell me if you have any 341 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: any burning thoughts. Ohio State favored by thirty eight on 342 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: the road at Northwestern. We've got Maryland a five point 343 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: dog on the road against Wisconsin. That's actually an interesting 344 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: game to me, super fascinating. We've got North Carolina minus 345 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: seven and a half on the road at Virginia. We've 346 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: also got can Tucky minus one and a half on 347 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: the road against Miszoo. Interesting. I want to come back 348 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: to that one. Minnesota minus sixteen at Nebraska and Georgia 349 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: Tech on the road at Virginia Tech. The Hoky's already 350 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: three point fivate. Yeah, don't watch that game if you 351 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: don't have to. That's that's your window of opportunity. If 352 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: you are a tech or tech fan. Yeah, that's the 353 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: tech mobile. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Not bad. 354 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: I'm still surprising you all these years. Into these years, I. 355 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 2: Think the Maryland Wisconsin game is fascinating. Yeah, why well, 356 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 2: there's a muck factor involved. And to Lea I believe 357 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 2: is coming back this week. 358 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: Man. It requires so much energy on a weekly basis 359 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: to figure out the health status of the tongue of 360 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: Iloa brothers. It's true. Every week. Every week you have 361 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: to research, and it's always a little hazy. I hope 362 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: they're healthy. I hope they're both back. They're both excellent 363 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: football players. But I cannot tell you how many minutes 364 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,719 Speaker 1: of my life I've devoted to figuring out their health status. 365 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: Muck factor I'm giving because it is a game in 366 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 2: I really should Wisconsin. Yeah that's what I thought. Yeah, 367 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 2: it's in Camp Randall muck factor. I'm giving it to Wisconsin. 368 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: Okay. 369 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 2: And the final number once again five points. Yeah, I 370 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 2: think Wisconsin can cover that. I don't love Wisconsin. I 371 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 2: don't love their defense. I do like brayln Allen a 372 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: considerable a mount I like their their their ceiling has 373 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 2: been lifted these last few weeks since making a coaching change. 374 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: I like Maryland. I don't love Maryland. I'm going Badgers. 375 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,719 Speaker 1: Five feels like a lot to me. Okay, but I 376 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 1: think I probably still air on the side of Wisconsin. 377 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: I saw our friend Bud Elliott declared that Northwestern's the 378 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: worst team east of the Mississippi. I'm not going to 379 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: lot this up. I'm not going to lock this up. 380 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: Thirty eight. It's a big number, but I still might 381 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: bet the thirty eight. It feels like that's a given me. 382 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be rainy here. That's all I can 383 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 2: tell you is that it'll be slower going. So maybe 384 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 2: it's it's an eventual cover thirty five thirty six point though. Yeah, 385 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 2: I guess I'll give them. I guess I'll give them 386 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 2: because Northwestern is that bad, but I don't feel great 387 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 2: about it. 388 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: I am considering locking up North Carolina on the road 389 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: against Virginia. This line hints to me that UVA needs 390 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: to score more than we've seen them score in order 391 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: to hang within seven and a half of North Carolina, 392 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: because Carolina is going to put up points. So I 393 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: might come back to that one. The Kentucky line is 394 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: the way. That's where I'll close here in this early block, 395 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: at least for me. All three of Miszoo's sec losses 396 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: have been by one score, those being Auburn, Georgia, and Florida. 397 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: We've barely talked about them on the show. We haven't 398 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: talked much about Missoo at all. But the defense is 399 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 1: actually quite good. I am inclined to pick them outright here. 400 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: Is that a sign of confidence in Missoo because their 401 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 2: offense is pretty catastrophic at the moment, or just a 402 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 2: feeling that Kentucky is nowhere near where they were last 403 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 2: year offensively, given the you know, the you know, Liam 404 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 2: cullen Lee moving on obviously Wandale Robinson being such a 405 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 2: threat that Kentucky's offense has taken a step back, especially 406 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 2: on the road this year. 407 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: The showing last week was really dismal. Tough. Look, it 408 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: was really dismal. And I get they were on the 409 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: road in Knoxville and Neiland at night, like a lot 410 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: of things, a lot of head wind there on the 411 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: Kentucky side, But Will Levis ninety eight yards and three 412 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: picks got to do better than that against the Tennessee defense. 413 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: Tennessee defense that probably does not get its due granted, 414 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: but come on, man, come on. They're going on the 415 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: road to Missoo. Miszoo will be fired up for that game. 416 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: They will be ready to play. I don't know, I 417 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: just don't know where Kentucky's at right now, and I 418 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: feel more comfortable picking Miszoo. 419 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this one's gonna be ugly, and I'm 420 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 2: actually going to give it to Kentucky. I think they 421 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: have more good players on both sides of the ball 422 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: even still, and I think the worst thing in this 423 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 2: game is still Missoo's offense. So I'm going Kentucky here 424 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: on the road, UH Minnesota to mindus anything against Nebraska 425 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 2: with Tanner Morgan and I don't want to talk about 426 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 2: the Georgia Tech Virginia Tech game. 427 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: Let's go to the afternoon three o'clock on the Big 428 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: twelve network or ESPN plus. If anybody out there gets 429 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: either of those, it is Baylor. Of course, my lock 430 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: of the week. We talked about the week, your spie lock. 431 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: No chance at all that they lose to an inferior 432 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: Oklahoma team, right. 433 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 2: I guess if you're making a spie lock, that has 434 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 2: to be your line of thinking. 435 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: This is a spike lock, That's what this is. We 436 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: had a run of what four straight games where Oklahoma's 437 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: defense grossly underperformed. Actually looked pretty good last week against 438 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: Iowa State. The bigger trend for Oklahoma, and especially with 439 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: Oklahoma as it relates to computer models, is that the 440 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: computer models of no idea what Oklahoma is. Bill Connolly 441 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 1: came on the show. His computer couldn't figure it out. 442 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 1: There was that momentary catastrophe, especially on defense, definitely seemed 443 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: like a really big blip on the radar to the extent, 444 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: where is this more of a blip or a trend? 445 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: And now here we are a couple weeks after that, 446 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: started wondering again, what does Oklahoma look like against a 447 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 1: decent team. We tend to throw the records out when 448 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: we have a rivalry game. I think we got to 449 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: throw the records out in this one as well, because 450 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: you just can't use any of those computers, any of 451 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 1: those numbers that we typically would lean upon as a 452 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: meaningful guide Oklahoma. Nobody has any idea what Oklahoma is 453 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: at this point? Is that fair? Is that all fair 454 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: to say? Yeah? Mostly? 455 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 2: I mean it's also a situation where the Iowa States 456 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 2: score wasn't fully indicative of the rhythm of that game. 457 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 2: I thought Oklahoma's defense did a much better job. But 458 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 2: how you perform against Iowa State's offense this year is 459 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 2: not necessarily addicative of anything because they will spread out 460 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 2: the misery. 461 00:23:58,680 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: Right. 462 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 2: This is not a fun to tea to watch on offense. 463 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 2: So it's not to say Oklahoma didn't do a good job, 464 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 2: but everybody does a good job against Iowa State's offense. 465 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna stick with Baylor here. I think Baylor's 466 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 2: a more complete team. I think they have the ability 467 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 2: to fool Dylan Gabriel. I still think Oklahoma's going to 468 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 2: score some, but I'm not sold that Oklahoma has fully 469 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 2: figured out and corrected everything on defense, and with Baylor's 470 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 2: playmakers and the emergence of some of their younger offensive players, 471 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 2: I'm going embarrass here. I think they're one of the 472 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 2: very quiet improvement stories over the course of the season. 473 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess the case against Baylor would be that 474 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: Oklahoma's got a lot of firepower through the air, and 475 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: Baylor's been bad at stopping that, bad at creating pressure, 476 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: especially with their defensive line. The counterpoint is that Baylor's 477 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: easily beaten both Kansas and Texas Tech over the last 478 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: two weeks, and those two teams are not the same 479 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: as Oklahoma, but they're similar enough, and I feel like 480 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: in each of those I made the same argument against Baylor. 481 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,120 Speaker 1: They can't stop the pass and they want both easily. 482 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: So granted, the success rates against the pass are not great. 483 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: They're still getting burnt by big plays, which are always 484 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: a killer, but you know, the game plan for Baylor 485 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: should probably be to just keep doing what they're doing 486 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: because they're getting by just fine. Maybe just run it 487 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: with Richard Reese. Maybe just control the clock like they 488 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: have all year. Just don't let Oklahoma get too many 489 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: home runs. You probably win the game. So I'm I'm 490 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: with you. Look, I was with you a couple day. 491 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 1: Games in Norman, right, games in Norman. Games in Norman. 492 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 2: That's the troubling part. That's a difficult place to win, 493 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 2: no matter what. 494 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: Oklahoma looks like. Thirty one to twenty eight, Baylor one 495 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: of my locks, with one of my locks. Ooh. This 496 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: week three thirty on FS one, Oklahoma State staying in 497 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 1: the Big twelve, only a two point road favorite at 498 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: Kansas Dan. The Jayhawks had a much needed bye week 499 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: last week after three straight losses to TCU, to Oklahoma, 500 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: to Baylor. It's tough stretch. One might argue. Oklahoma State 501 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: had a bye week last one might argue in Kansas State, yeah, 502 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: they also needed a breather. Yeah, you stole my joke 503 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: that I was going to say. Ok the state lost 504 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: on its bye week. Sorry, it's okay, it's okay. On 505 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: the Kansas front, though, much to the point that I 506 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: made earlier about maybe Iowa wouldn't make a bowl game. 507 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: Maybe Texas Tech is in that vicinity as well, with 508 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: Okay having to rip off a couple wins here to 509 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 1: get qualified. There are four games left on Kansas's drive 510 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: for six. They're five and three. They're in a better 511 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: spot than both those teams, but Oklahoma State this week 512 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: at Texas Tech Texas and at Kansas State the close 513 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: things out also not a given that Kansas is making 514 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: a bowl despite all the good vibes and lawrence. 515 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 2: Right which I saw Jalen Daniels practicing. Don't know what 516 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: it means for this week, next week, the rest of 517 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 2: the season, but a good sign hopefully that he is 518 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:57,959 Speaker 2: improving health wise. 519 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: Where are you at here, man. 520 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 2: That's where I'm at, just sighing and saying, Man, I 521 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: guess Oklahoma State. I still don't trust the Kansas defense. 522 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 2: I still don't trust their health on offense, and I 523 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 2: don't trust Oklahoma State at all. The game is where 524 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 2: the game is in Kansas. Oh well, I still don't 525 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: trust it. I still am willing to write off Oklahoma 526 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 2: State bye week. 527 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 1: And you're really struggling with this, aren't you? I am? 528 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: I am struggling with it. Ro Let me tell you 529 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: where I stand. Okay, here's where I stand. On Kansas. 530 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: I reiterate, they're a better story than a team. I 531 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: think they will be very competitive. They've been competitive all year. 532 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 1: I think they're going to hit some big plays because 533 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: they're playing against Oklahoma State. Oklahoma State's given up a 534 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: ton of them this year. I just think the Kansas 535 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 1: defense is too much of a liability, and I think 536 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: the Pokes are due for rebound. I don't take last 537 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: week as any kind of trend for the Pokes. I 538 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: don't know what happened, but that feels like a giant 539 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: aberration to be They're not that bad of a team. 540 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 1: So maybe maybe the Pokes were looking ahead to Kansas. 541 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: Maybe they wanted to play this version of Kansas and 542 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: not the Purple one. Whatever, But I think a big 543 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: bounce back coming here for Oklahoma State. I got it 544 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: like a lot of points, maybe forty one thirty a 545 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: winning a cover. 546 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: I'm going Kansas. I'm going Kansas. I just I'm feeling 547 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 2: the vibe. I am, I'm sorry, I am. 548 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: If Jalen Daniels plays, I might revise. But okay, for 549 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: right now, I'm I'm in on Oklahoma State. 550 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 2: You lose a game forty eight, nothing that changes everything 551 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: to me. Ty it does midyear later on in the 552 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 2: year to a good but not excellent Kansas State team. 553 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 2: That changes some calculus for me about injuries, about motivation, 554 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 2: about firepower. That you can have bad weeks. That is 555 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: their worst week, and we say throughout your best week, 556 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: throughout your worst week, that is Oklahoma State. It's worst week. 557 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: But I know they have that in them, and that's troubling. 558 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 2: Let's go to the biggin. Let's let's go to the 559 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 2: Bigin three thirty CBS Tennessee number one, newly minted, number 560 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 2: one Tennessee on the road at number three, Georgia. 561 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: This is a big deal. 562 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 3: This loised loist, loist, loist, loist, loist. 563 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, this is a big deal. Line opened at nine, 564 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: it came down a little. It's still at eight in 565 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: favor of Georgia. That's a lot that's higher than I expected. 566 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: I read a lot online this week doing my homework. 567 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: It seems like it's more than a lot of folks expected. 568 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: So as you would expect, ninety seven percent of the 569 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: money is on Tennessee here, Folks feeling very similar in 570 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: that regard that this is too much. The valls are 571 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: obviously very good, but there is I think a little 572 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: bit of narrative driving the bet here, driving the rooting 573 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: interests here, because Tennessee is new in this conversation, they've 574 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: been down for a while. Folks don't want to root 575 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: for Georgia unless you're a Georgia fan. You want to 576 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: see somebody new, right. That's been the problem with the 577 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: playoff in the SEC as a whole. It's always the 578 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: same teams. I want to see somebody new. I think 579 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: some of that is driving the bet, some of the 580 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: rooting interests on the Tennessee front. I've heard a lot 581 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: of comparisons to twenty nineteen LSU with Tennessee. I don't 582 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: know if that's the right comparison. I don't know what 583 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: the right comparison is. But it does feel good to 584 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: be on that bandwagon, you know. That was one of 585 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: the takeaways from the twenty nineteen LSU thing, where if 586 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: you got in early, and if you liked them early, 587 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: if you got in with Joe Burrow and then they 588 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: just went off, you felt like a genius. You felt 589 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: like you found something before other people did, and it 590 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: felt good to be part of that. So I understand 591 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 1: why people are jumping aboard the tennis See bandwagon. In 592 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: this case, I thought you posted something very interesting on Monday, Yes, 593 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: on our Twitter feed, the first time ever. Dan, I know, 594 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: there's the first time for everything. You posted the points 595 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: per drive numbers, Yes on our Twitter feed, which usually 596 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: I make fun of you for. There's no good reason 597 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,719 Speaker 1: for that. I mean, these are good numbers there. 598 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: They're great, solid numbers only against FBS team's minus garbage time. 599 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: Tennessee and Georgia both have three point nine points per drive. 600 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: What that means for the layman out there driving in 601 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: your car, It means that these offenses are almost equally efficient. 602 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: The difference between the two is tempo, and this is 603 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: something I brought up last week when I talked about 604 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,959 Speaker 1: the Georgia Bulldogs. Tennessee wants to run you off the field. 605 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: Georgia has a slower, longer, more methodical approach to its offense. 606 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: In practical terms, Tennessee is the orange Lamborghini. George is 607 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: like the Honda with a spoiler right Like, they're just 608 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: very practical they get the job done, they get the 609 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: most mileage. Yeah, and they're not going to break down. 610 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: They're very solid. So I don't want to oversimplify any 611 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: of the stuff. I have comprehensive thoughts on why I 612 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: am betting one side or the other. Where are you 613 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: at here with Tennessee versus Georgia. 614 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 2: Well, first and foremost, the probably most talented defensive player 615 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 2: in this game is out for the season announced this week. 616 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 2: And Nolan Smith for Georgia, who has been their mister 617 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: Havoc coming off of the edge, former number one overall 618 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 2: recruit who came back I think the fourth year, so 619 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 2: he is a missing pieces. Is a deep defense, is 620 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 2: a very very good defense. This is not last year's defense. 621 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 2: This is not an all time defense. This is not 622 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 2: an all time offense. Whereas what Tennessee presents on offense 623 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 2: is basically better than what anybody else presents doing anything 624 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 2: this season. And so for them to be would you 625 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: say nine to nine and a half point underdogs, it's opened. 626 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: At nine, Yeah, and it's jumped around a little bit. 627 00:32:59,000 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: It's currently at eight. 628 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 2: Okay, so somewhere above or right around a one possession 629 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 2: eight nine point spread. 630 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 1: Here, I don't know. 631 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 2: I watched Tennessee Alabama, and the Falls met the moment 632 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 2: with a wobbly knuckler at the end. But that offense 633 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 2: against what I still think is a good Alabama defense, 634 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 2: maybe one that had some issues in the secondary that 635 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 2: specific day. But Tennessee met the moment. It was not 636 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 2: too big for them. It was the biggest Tennessee game 637 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 2: in sixteen years, whatever, and they met the moment once again. 638 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: Georgia meets it for a quarter, meets it for a half. 639 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: Obviously. 640 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 2: They were terrific against Oregon in the opening game of 641 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 2: the season, really strong opening the game against Florida last week, 642 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 2: but let Florida back into the game. I'm just I 643 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: think Tennessee is the atmospheric river of the week right there. 644 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: They are the. 645 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: Current, and so I am just going to stick my 646 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 2: ore in the water and say, settle, I'm going Tennessee. 647 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 2: I'm going Tennessee to cover. I am not positive in 648 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 2: the outcome of this game. I tend to trust a 649 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 2: home team with a still very good defense if it's 650 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 2: tight late to get that stop. But when I see 651 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: Hendon Hooker throw the ball down field like a tear 652 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 2: drop coming from the heavens falling into the hands of 653 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 2: Jalen Hyatt. I think to myself, I'm not going to 654 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 2: be the one to bet against that ability. I'm not 655 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 2: going to be that person. So I'm going Tennessee here 656 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 2: plus the points. 657 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: On some level, I think it's a math problem for Georgia. 658 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 1: Maybe just don't let the unstoppable offense have the ball 659 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: that much. Sure, if George is able to control the 660 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: pace of this game and continues stringing long drives together 661 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: the way they have all season long, they're going to 662 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: win this game. That's how Georgia wins games, especially big 663 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: ones against a team like Tennessee with a really potent offense. 664 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: Where they could run into trouble I think is if 665 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: Tennessee can either stop or tail them a bit on 666 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: the ground, because the Vols rush defense is actually quite good. 667 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: It's the strength of this defensive unit. Another thing that 668 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:12,919 Speaker 1: gets the Dogs into trouble is turnovers, and we talked 669 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,959 Speaker 1: about it last week. They had the three turnover game, 670 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,240 Speaker 1: but on the season they're fifty eighth nationally in turnover margin, 671 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: and per the bill C numbers that we get to 672 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: look at, they're lucky. It's not a little bit worse. 673 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 1: So again, it works great if you're able to run 674 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: your system, if you're able to put those long drives 675 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: together and eat time off the clock, limit the number 676 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: of chances Tennessee gets to have Hendon Hooker throw those 677 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 1: teardrops from the gods, right, But some of it goes 678 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: out the window a little bit if the rushing game 679 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: gets bottled up, or if you decide to turn the 680 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: ball over. Those are the two things that I think 681 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to be looking for on the Georgia side. 682 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: The other thing that I'll call out on the Georgia 683 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: side is that I think the Dogs are better up 684 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: front than any team ten to see us played. Yet 685 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: you think they're better than what Alabama offers off of 686 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: the edge on the line. On the line, I think 687 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: they're better, oh Man, Dallas Turner, Will Anderson, Will and 688 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm just talking on the line, you know, Will Anderson. 689 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: They move them around, they use them in to nepacities 690 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: purely along that front three front four. I think I 691 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: favor Georgia, and I'm curious to see how or if 692 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: that changes the complexion of this game, if at all. 693 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: For all the talk of Hendon Hooker and Jalen Hyatt. 694 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 1: The Balls are actually a very good team on the 695 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: ground as well, not just stopping it, but rushing. And 696 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: I think that's part of why they're so good through 697 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 1: the air, because the Dogs are built a little bit 698 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: differently in the front seven. If they go out there, 699 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: if they shut down that ground assault again, or if 700 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: they curtail the ground assault from Tennessee. I am curious 701 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: to see if there are any downstream effects in the 702 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: passing game, you know, like maybe it won't make it 703 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: quite as effective. And Tennessee a very highly efficient offense. 704 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: If they're not able to fully operate at maximum capacity, 705 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: what does that do against presumably the best team, one 706 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 1: of the best teams they'll play all year. So I 707 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm I'm gonna go Tennessee with the points. 708 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: Like you, I think this is one possession game one 709 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: way or the other. I do like Georgia to win 710 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: the game out right and keep the scoring down. I 711 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: got it something like thirty three to twenty eight, like 712 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: a lot of long Georgia drives, probably a couple turnovers, 713 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: maybe comes down to a last possession for Tennessee. I 714 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: expect this to be a good football game. Yeah, I 715 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 1: think it's thirty eight thirty four somebody, Yeah, I could 716 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: see it. Great game though, right, what a great game? 717 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: Oh my god? Can aw so? 718 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 2: Look, we haven't mentioned the name Brock Bauers, who's basically 719 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 2: the entirety of the explosive passing offense, which really doesn't 720 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 2: exist for Georgia this year. But when he gets in space, 721 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 2: he might even be the best single player in this game. 722 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 2: We have Hendon Hooker, we have Jalen Hih, we have 723 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 2: stars all over the place. I'm a little bit worried 724 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 2: still if Stetson Bennett does not have an A plus 725 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 2: defense wearing red and black. I'm a little bit worried 726 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 2: that if he is asked to win this game, if 727 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 2: it's clear that it's going to be a back and 728 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 2: forth track meet by the middle of the second quarter, 729 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 2: that is a struggle for me to get excited about 730 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 2: George's chances in this game. 731 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: No, I agree with that. I do agree with that. 732 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: I think for me the thing that I will be 733 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: most interested in on both fronts is the rushing attack. Totally. 734 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: Can Tennessee stop Georgia. Can Tennessee get theirs on the 735 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: ground against Georgia? I that to me, will dictate a 736 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: lot of this one. But I'm with you. I mean, 737 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 1: there's just so much firepower on the Tennessee side on 738 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: offense that thirty three to twenty eight. I like him 739 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: the cover, all right, fair enough. Some other games in 740 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: that afternoon slate, these aren't his high profile, Dan. You 741 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: can listen to these and then come back Danny that 742 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,439 Speaker 1: are of interest to you. We've got Syracuse at pit 743 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 1: Pit favor by three and a half. I'm not sure 744 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: what's going on with Pitt right now, but favorite by 745 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: three and a half at home, your Oregon Ducks minus 746 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: thirty one and a half on the road to Colorado. 747 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: Will there be rain in this game? 748 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think I'll range dry conditions 749 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 2: about sixty degrees in Sonny and Boulder. 750 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: Michigan State versus Illinois. Illinois favored by sixteen. 751 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 2: Now that's such a big number, but Illinois against the spread, 752 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 2: by the way, has been sensational. I believe Vegas does 753 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,360 Speaker 2: not have a good handle on betting the Ali and 754 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 2: I right now to go down the middle. 755 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: I just wonder if they're beefing it up on purpose 756 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: to try and get some back. It seems like a 757 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 1: big line. I don't know. Penn State minus fourteen bluck 758 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: of the week. Penn State minus fourteen on the road 759 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 1: to Indiana is another one of my locks this week. 760 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: Oo for whom for Penn State? Oh, Indiana's bad. I 761 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 1: don't know if it's going to be Drew Aller. I 762 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: hope it is. James Franklin of course played koy when 763 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: they asked him about it, and he. 764 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 2: Didn't say Sean Clifford is our quarterback. He didn't say no. 765 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 2: He never says anything. All he says is one and 766 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 2: O mentality, one and O mental whatever that means. Right, Yeah, 767 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 2: game at a time. I guess it's his philosophy. I 768 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 2: hope it's Shrew Aller. I hope we see him in 769 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 2: this game. Maybe we'll see him for a chunk of 770 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: this game. Whatever it is, Indiana's pretty bad. So I'm 771 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 2: all in on Penn State minus the fourteen. 772 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: Here. We also have UCF minus six on the road 773 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 1: at Memphis. We've got Wazoo minus five on the road 774 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 1: at Stanford. We've got Iowa State a seven point home favorite, 775 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,240 Speaker 1: the battle for the bottom of the Big twelve against 776 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: West Virginia, and also of note, Liberty seven to one, 777 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 1: a very quiet seven to one Liberty on the road 778 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:44,800 Speaker 1: at Arkansas, Arkansas favored by about two touchdowns. Any of 779 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: those games ring a bell for you, I don't know. 780 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 2: Like the I'm confused about the Penn State Indiana game, 781 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 2: I'm not confused. I'm a little bit worried that Ohio 782 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 2: State beat Penn State twice and that Penn State was 783 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 2: in it so late and the way that game got 784 00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 2: out of hand in the way that it did late, 785 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 2: that Ohio State will be Penn State twice and have 786 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 2: Penn State either lose to Indiana, which is probably not 787 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,879 Speaker 2: happening but in bad weather and it's ugly, and we've 788 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 2: had that recent history of a not great Indiana team 789 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 2: putting a pretty big scare into Penn State. I'm not 790 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 2: sold on Penn State easily covering that game. I know 791 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 2: Indiana's lost four or five straight and they're kind of 792 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 2: an elite loser at times, but they've hung with a 793 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 2: couple of teams this year. I'm not sold in the 794 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 2: way that you are in that lock territory. Otherwise, Yeah, 795 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: you sehis Memphis would be really good, you seef, coming 796 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 2: off of a very emotional win against Cincinnati. 797 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 1: I think I'm on Memphis there. I could see let 798 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:42,919 Speaker 1: down down city for UCF after beating Cincinnati. You see 799 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,959 Speaker 1: F plays really good defense and they're really good against 800 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 1: the robin. So this is probably a better team than 801 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: you might think because a lot of people don't pay 802 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: attention to a group of five that's their loss. But 803 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 1: you see I favored by six on the road after 804 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:02,280 Speaker 1: a big win. I probably go Memphis the points liberty Arkansas. 805 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 2: I probably won't watch a ton of but I like 806 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 2: Arkansas's momentum, especially on offense and the ability to run 807 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 2: the ball. Lately, Wazoo over Stanford, I feel pretty good 808 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 2: about They've owned that matchup these last few years, as 809 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 2: most people have owned against Stanford these last few years. 810 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 2: Do I think West Virginia, now without CJ. Donaldson, can 811 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 2: go to Ames a winless Iowa State home and win 812 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 2: that game? 813 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 1: No, I do not. I do not. 814 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 2: I think Iowa State finally gets in the win column. 815 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:35,760 Speaker 2: So I'm going Clones there, And yeah, I guess Memphis 816 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 2: in the letdown spot for UCF is an interesting play, 817 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 2: but I just am not in love with Memphis this year. 818 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 2: So yeah, that's my feel on that Oregon covering against Colorado. Yeah, 819 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 2: that's one thing I also feel good about. I am 820 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 2: I'll come back to what I said before. I'm not 821 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 2: sure what's going on with Pitt right now. 822 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 1: This offense hit. It's a fascinating game. It's a really 823 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: fascinating game. This pit offense has been bad, really bad, 824 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: two weeks in a row. Maybe they'll be better at 825 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,919 Speaker 1: home now. I don't know. Pitt also sort of has 826 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 1: the template for beating Syracuse, and I think they can 827 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: play the game a similar style of bully ball that 828 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: Notre Dame tried and succeeded with last week. Syracuse. I 829 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: think they can play that style of game and minimize 830 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: risk through the air and still win. I wouldn't even 831 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: think about betting this game. Don't put yourself through that. 832 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: But I do think Pitt wins. One other one that 833 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: I did want to come back to here for a second, 834 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 1: that West Virginia game. I'm with you. I think I 835 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 1: like Iowa State to win. But I kept thinking of 836 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 1: the end of seven when Morgan Freeman tells Brad Pitt 837 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: just be ready for anything if the head splits open, Like, 838 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: be ready for anything in this football game. I would 839 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: not give the seven. I won't bet this game. I 840 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: would not give the seven. I have no idea what 841 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: to expect here. 842 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 2: Really, I'm going cuse I think I'm going cus by 843 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 2: the way, and I don't love right now. I just 844 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 2: think they're another Levy team that you know when things 845 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 2: don't start going their way. 846 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: I think they should be able. 847 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 2: To run some against the Syracuse front. But I just 848 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 2: Pitt doesn't seem trustworthy to me. 849 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: They're not. 850 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,720 Speaker 2: No, they're not. I'm going even beat up at quarterback. 851 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 2: I'm going q's. 852 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, Let's go to the Lake games. The 853 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: late window is awesome, by the way. This week seven 854 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 1: pm ESPN, Alabama seven and one, a thirteen and a 855 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: half point favorite on the road at night in Death 856 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:35,760 Speaker 1: Valley against your six and two LSC Tigers at number 857 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: ten LSU Tigers. Did you see that? I did see that? 858 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: Crazy man m hmm crazy getting a lot of love 859 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 1: from the playoff committee. This is a big game. Look, 860 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: LSU has slowly climbed that ladder over the last month 861 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 1: or so. It's taken a minute for Jayden Daniels to 862 00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 1: set in to feel like he's won with the offense guess, 863 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: but it does feel like there is real momentum on 864 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 1: that LSU side. This is a challenge as well for Alabama. Look, 865 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: we didn't see it. Maybe at the beginning of the year, 866 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: we didn't know what to expect from LSU. But being so, 867 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: Alabama's shown vulnerability, They've got a loss, They're going up 868 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: against a team that seems to be trending in a 869 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 1: good direction. This seems like a real challenge to me. 870 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: So I am intrigued by this game. This will be 871 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 1: my volume game. Even though Notre Dame's got the big 872 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: one against Clemson at home, the Bama LSU game's got 873 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: to be the volume game for me. It just has 874 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: to be because I just think I'm so excited about 875 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: this game. Do you have a lean here? This is 876 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:40,240 Speaker 1: a big point spread. 877 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a huge spread. I'm actually almost leaning into 878 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 2: it because it's so surprisingly robust. Really, I'm leaning into it. 879 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 2: I am impressed by what LSU has done. At times, 880 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 2: I don't know if I fully trust this line. I 881 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 2: don't fully trust that line against this matchup. I think 882 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 2: what Alabama was against Tennessee is not who Alabama is 883 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 2: as a program right now. I think they have improved. 884 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 2: I don't love the Alabama offense. I don't love the 885 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 2: I don't like either offensive line in this game. But 886 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: in terms of home run ability, I'm still in on Alabama. 887 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 2: I'm still in on an increasingly healthy Bryce Young, an 888 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 2: ability to win in multiple ways. And you know that 889 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 2: the Tennessee results still scares me. I think ole Miss 890 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 2: may have been a touch overrated as a complete team 891 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 2: when they played against LSU, And I think Alabama is 892 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 2: just going to be a more pronounced version of what 893 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 2: ole Miss was against A and M or all these 894 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 2: teams that are just going to go straight at LSU. 895 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 2: I think I'm still in on Alabama by a couple 896 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 2: of touchdowns here. I'm barely covering this spread. I hate 897 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,760 Speaker 2: the pick. I hate the pick, but there is something 898 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 2: that I don't fully trust about Brian Kelly. That Tennessee 899 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 2: results scares me. Ty that they that they we talk 900 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,240 Speaker 2: about having some thing in them. The way that Oklahoma 901 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 2: State had losing the game forty eight nothing to Kansas State, 902 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 2: That to me is a worrisome data point that they 903 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:10,760 Speaker 2: had that kind of loss in them forty to thirteen, 904 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 2: forty one, thirteen something like that, thirteen so and that 905 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 2: was in Baton Rouge. Everybody's always up for Alabama. Look, 906 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,479 Speaker 2: I get the back and forth nature of this game 907 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 2: and what it is. Usually I'm going to Alabama here 908 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 2: to actually win comfortably. 909 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, big number. I was surprised when I saw 910 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,160 Speaker 1: thirteen and a half. That that definitely made me sit 911 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 1: back in my chair a little bit. The Jade and 912 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 1: Daniels story is something that I think is really well. 913 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:38,840 Speaker 1: First off, it's been one of the better stories in 914 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: college football year. Jane Daniel is a transfer from Arizona State. 915 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 1: He's a revelation, right, takes them a little bit to 916 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,400 Speaker 1: get going, but now he has. He's got a twelve 917 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 1: to one touchdown interception ratio. He's the team's leading rusher. Yeah, 918 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 1: clearly the threat of his legs makes his arm more dangerous. Right, 919 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 1: And so that being what it is, has already been 920 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: I think a huge dub for Brian Kelly for the 921 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 1: LSU program to get some stability at quarterback. They haven't 922 00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 1: had that in a while, so to have that in 923 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:10,680 Speaker 1: and of itself is a big deal. I don't know, 924 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: but I think a lot about what he does against 925 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: a team like in Alabama, and it worries me that 926 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:23,280 Speaker 1: as Jaden Daniels goes, so does LSU. I worry about 927 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,839 Speaker 1: teams playing against better teams, and. 928 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 2: He's been beat up this year a little bit. I 929 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 2: just thought come out of was it the Auburn game 930 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,920 Speaker 2: with stiffness and he couldn't move his leg like It's 931 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 2: just you know, they're little things. 932 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 1: I worry about the one man army a lot, especially 933 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: against a team like in Alabama. Often, when you've got 934 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 1: the dual threat guys, the burden falls on the opposing 935 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: linebackers to keep him in check. And I don't think 936 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: that's an issue for Alabama either. They're very good there. 937 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: So where Alabama's gotten into trouble in the past is 938 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 1: when they've got the combination of the dual threat guy 939 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: who can run, which Jadan Daniels can, with the deep 940 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: passing threat which LSU doesn't have. They don't consistently, consistently 941 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 1: consistently Homeie don't play that. This year for LSU, they're 942 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,279 Speaker 1: getting better. They have built more of a rapport with 943 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 1: the wide receivers as the season's gone on. Yeah, the 944 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 1: last few weeks they've definitely been better. But on the whole, 945 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 1: LSU one hundred and fifteenth nationally in my favorite stat, 946 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 1: air yards per pass. He's not an explosive passing team 947 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 1: getting better, but that is not their calling card. My 948 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: sense here is that Jamir Gibbs goes off, and he 949 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: goes off enough for the Alabama offense that it sets 950 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 1: up toff downfield for Bryce Young. It'll be interesting to 951 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: see if LSU blitzes him at all to try and 952 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: upset his timing. Currently, they do not blitz much, and 953 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's a formula for beating Bryce Young. 954 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 1: It doesn't seem anybody can blitz Bryce Young and get 955 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: him right. He's just good at avoiding the pressure. But 956 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 1: it is certainly not a winning formula to sit back 957 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 1: to play zone and let the reigning Heisman winner pick you. Yeah, yeah, right. 958 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,560 Speaker 1: And that's what I worry about, because they haven't been 959 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 1: great at blitzing taking down posing quarterbacks. What happens in 960 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,320 Speaker 1: a game like this against Bryce Young, where there's a 961 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,839 Speaker 1: running game that you got to worry about, and then 962 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 1: on top of it, you've got Houdini back there who 963 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: can dance around in the pocket and find guys who 964 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:22,000 Speaker 1: are open. I'm with you, I think this is a 965 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:30,359 Speaker 1: hallmark Alabama boat race. Not a blowout, but a boat 966 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 1: race in that they get up by a little and 967 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: then by a little more and then gradually pull away. 968 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 1: Crock potting of sorts. Yeah, yeah, a mini crock potting 969 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:43,520 Speaker 1: maybe on blow See, I've always thought boat race was, oh, 970 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,359 Speaker 1: they're up twenty eight nothing midway through the second quarter, 971 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 1: right that it's pretty quick that they're out way ahead. 972 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,720 Speaker 1: And I guess it depends on the boat, right, depends 973 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 1: on the boat. Yeah, depends on the boat. Whatever metaphor 974 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,760 Speaker 1: you want to go with here, thirty four to thirty 975 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: five twenty Alabama's my final score? Yeah, I have, I 976 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 1: have thirty seven to twenty one. We agree, We agree. 977 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 1: Texas versus K State Texas favored by two and a 978 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:15,839 Speaker 1: half seven pm Eastern on FS one. The line's gone up. 979 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 1: It opened at Texas by a point. Some of the 980 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: sharps went in on the horns. Now it's up to 981 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: two and a half. I've seen it as high as three. 982 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,479 Speaker 1: Chris climbing zero to three against Texas. He's been close 983 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 1: twice but still got a big old goose egg there. 984 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 1: Last year's game was interesting because K State was almost 985 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 1: entirely one dimensional. Skylar Thompson was out. We've had Rashaan 986 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 1: Johnson go off for the Horns. It is strange to 987 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 1: me that the Sharps are in on Texas here. I 988 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 1: like Texas. Texas is better than they were last season. 989 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: What am I missing? Why are people in on Texas. 990 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:54,279 Speaker 2: Because it's Texas and they want to be in on Texas. 991 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:58,399 Speaker 2: This game is in Manhattan? Yeah yeah, Uh, Kansas State's 992 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 2: gonna win this game. Texas is not as good a 993 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 2: football team as Kansas State. You know what story I 994 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 2: saw yesterday? Texas players yet again had a player's only meeting. 995 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,760 Speaker 2: It's like the dreaded vote of confidence. Who has Texas 996 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 2: beaten this year to make you think that they can 997 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 2: beat a good team on the road. 998 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, give me Kansas State and lock it. 999 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 3: Up luck of the week. 1000 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: If we're gonna stick with the boat stuff. I like 1001 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 1: the cut of your jib, Dan, how about that? Oh? 1002 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:35,359 Speaker 1: Pretty good? Pretty good? Yeah? I think I Goky State 1003 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 1: as well. I just don't understand the Texas love, don't. 1004 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 1: I don't get why the line moved in their favor. 1005 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 1: Kansas State's a good football team, whether it's Will Howard 1006 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,359 Speaker 1: or Adrian Martinez or whoever. It's a good football team. 1007 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 1: They beat Oklahoma State by forty eight last week. They'll 1008 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 1: be fine. 1009 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I think Kansastate's good, that's all. And I 1010 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 2: think Texas is all over the place. And again, players 1011 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:57,879 Speaker 2: all in the meeting say no more. 1012 00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 1: Seven point thirty NBC Clemson minus three and a half 1013 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 1: on the road at Notre Dame. Lock of the week. 1014 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how many locks them up to, but this, 1015 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,520 Speaker 1: this is my lock. This is the alpha lock of 1016 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 1: the week. Okay, yeah, there is no chance in hell 1017 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 1: Notre Dame is winning this game. Zero. Really, Okay, if 1018 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,720 Speaker 1: you want to clip this, if you want to post 1019 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,760 Speaker 1: this in various corners of the internet, be my guest 1020 00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,240 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. If I'm wrong, I'll take my medicine. 1021 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 1: Wouldn't be the first time, clearly I will be rooting 1022 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: for Notre Dame. I just I don't see it. I 1023 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,720 Speaker 1: don't see it. What do you see from Clemson? 1024 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 3: Though? 1025 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,600 Speaker 2: Like, you have to give me a reason, not just 1026 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:44,799 Speaker 2: that the team won't win, but that a team will win, 1027 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 2: because it's this is a game of which Clemson, with 1028 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 2: a pretty up and down offense and questions at quarterback 1029 00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 2: Will Shipley. There are no questions. No, they've been better 1030 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 2: at tight end this year, but this has not been 1031 00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:00,279 Speaker 2: an excellent offense going against I think a good Notre 1032 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 2: Dame defense. 1033 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:04,040 Speaker 1: It is a good Notre Dame defense. The reason that 1034 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:07,720 Speaker 1: I'm picking Clemson here is because of the Clemson defense. Okay, 1035 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: I don't think this is going to be a particularly 1036 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 1: exciting game to watch. I think there's a good chance 1037 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 1: it's ugly and low scoring, and frankly, that's why the 1038 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 1: points spread makes a little bit more sense to me. 1039 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 1: There just might not be that many chances here for 1040 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:26,759 Speaker 1: Clemson to get really good separation because Notre Dame also 1041 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 1: plays slowly, and you're right, they have a solid defense. 1042 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 1: So I think there are factors with the way that 1043 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 1: each of these teams plays that keeps this game close. 1044 00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 1: But I don't know if you did. You see the 1045 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: quote this week from Wes Goodwin, the Clemson defense coordinator. Now, 1046 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,840 Speaker 1: what did he have to say? Quote the ball is 1047 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 1: going to eighty seven? Yeah, end quote. That's Michael Mahyer. 1048 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: Michael Mayer is eighty seven his target share in this offense, 1049 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 1: He's nearly fifty percent of the passing game. Yeah, if 1050 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,160 Speaker 1: the game plan is not already telegraphed, that's fine, and 1051 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: Drew Pine will do it after kickoff. He's very good 1052 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,800 Speaker 1: at doing that. Every passing attempt, he's looking at Michael 1053 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 1: Mayer first. That's what Drew Pine does. 1054 00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 3: Right. 1055 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:10,800 Speaker 1: If they are not throwing to Michael Maher, they're running it. 1056 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 1: H To their credit, they've gotten better at running it. 1057 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 1: Offensive line has developed. Audrick Estime your boy, Audric Estimay, 1058 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,840 Speaker 1: I like him. Yeah, big dude, Big D's a load 1059 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 1: four point six per carry, four point six per carry, 1060 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:28,479 Speaker 1: specifically against seven in the box, Okay, which is good, 1061 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,399 Speaker 1: which is because they know it's coming. They know it's 1062 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,879 Speaker 1: coming because Drew Pine is playing quarterback. But that's that's it. 1063 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: That's it. This Clemson defense has to stop two things. 1064 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:45,759 Speaker 1: Michael Maher and some version of a rushing attack that 1065 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 1: I'm still not totally confident is back to quote unquote 1066 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 1: back to where they thought it was going to be 1067 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:53,479 Speaker 1: back in week two. 1068 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 2: This would be a good boy wonder Tommy Reese game 1069 00:55:57,320 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 2: for him to say, here, here are all my creative ways. 1070 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 2: Is to get running backs to the ball in space 1071 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:05,880 Speaker 2: and to figure out a screen game with other receivers 1072 00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,879 Speaker 2: that are not named Michael Mayer tight end, they would 1073 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,800 Speaker 2: be really it would be a great boy Wonder moment 1074 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 2: if Tommy Race is able to figure something out about 1075 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 2: what to do against this Clemson defense. Creatively, Do I 1076 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 2: think Boy Wonder Tommy Race will figure it out this weekend? 1077 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 2: I do not, So I'm taking Clemson here. 1078 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,920 Speaker 1: If Clemson can stop those very two specific things, Notre 1079 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 1: Dames offense is dead in the water. It's dead again. 1080 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 1: There's a good chance this is ugly. I could see 1081 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 1: it being seven to six at halftime. Yeah, but I 1082 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: think second half, when Clemson typically pulls away. Clemson will 1083 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,760 Speaker 1: pull away in the second half. I like will Shipley 1084 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 1: to have a good game. I could see them doing 1085 00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff with him. He's obviously very versatile. 1086 00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: He bigger then you might think you can run between 1087 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:58,560 Speaker 1: the tackles. They get the ball in space, swing passes, 1088 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 1: things like that. They will also utilize dju if he 1089 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,520 Speaker 1: is still the quarterback or Kay whoever their quarterback is. 1090 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,760 Speaker 1: They will utilize him in the rushing attack as well. 1091 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 1: I have Clemson pulling away comfortably winning twenty seven to thirteen. 1092 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's about right. By the way, it hasn't in 1093 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 2: the games in South Bend, right, So it hasn't actually 1094 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 2: been a great year for a home field advantage for 1095 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 2: Notre Dame, nearly losing to cal getting by on that 1096 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:27,440 Speaker 2: weird non penalty situation or penalty situation, and losing to Stanford. 1097 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 2: Stanford figured it out within the friendly confines of South Bend, 1098 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 2: Indiana and Notre Dame. Sam So I'm just yeah, I'm 1099 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 2: happy to take Clemson. 1100 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,360 Speaker 1: I just don't see it. I can't believe that this 1101 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 1: line is only three and a half. It doesn't make 1102 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 1: any sense to me. Okay, one final game here that 1103 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 1: I want to highlight, and then again I'll list off 1104 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:47,840 Speaker 1: some other games in the window. If there are any, 1105 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 1: you can jump out and sure stop me. Eight pm, 1106 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 1: ACC Network Wake Forest at six and two. NC State 1107 00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: also at six and two. Wake is favored by four 1108 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 1: and a half points. This is a fascinating game. A 1109 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 1: little bit disappointing, right, but I think fascinating in that 1110 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: we've got two teams that have a lot of promise 1111 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 1: for different reasons, both have sort of underperformed. I think 1112 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 1: we expected preseason that they would both be in a 1113 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:22,200 Speaker 1: different place than they currently are. But we had the 1114 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 1: Wake thing with them barely losing to Clemson and the 1115 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: tire fire at Louisville. We've got n C State down, 1116 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 1: Devin Leary. They lost to both Clemson and Houston the road. 1117 00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:37,920 Speaker 1: Promising third stringer though, promising third quarter Morris. Yeah, promising 1118 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 1: third stringer, And I think that's part of why this 1119 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 1: game is so entertaining to me. There's a lot of 1120 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 1: entertainment value here. MJ. Morris was named QB one Great 1121 00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 1: after last week. He led NC State back after they 1122 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:55,640 Speaker 1: were down late against Virginia Tech. He's a four star 1123 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: true freshman. He's a guy who, at least in one game, 1124 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:00,520 Speaker 1: looked like he could work the ball down on the field. 1125 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: And if NC State can do that changes the way 1126 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 1: I would view this game. Otherwise, NC State has been 1127 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 1: bad at that. They've had no explosion this year at all. 1128 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: That's been a real issue for them, and I just 1129 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: worry in a game like this where they're not getting 1130 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:19,800 Speaker 1: any explosion, they're not scoring any points. Like, you're just 1131 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,480 Speaker 1: not gonna beat Wake Forest. If you're scoring twenty four points, 1132 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:25,800 Speaker 1: you gotta put up some points if you want to 1133 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:29,640 Speaker 1: beat these guys. I still go Wake here because I 1134 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 1: think I trust Sam Hartman and Wake more than I 1135 00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 1: trust NC State with a new quarterback who looks promising, 1136 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 1: but we have a very limited sample size. I think 1137 00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 1: Wake bounces back after their excuse me, eight turnovers eight turnovers, yeah, 1138 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: from a week ago, and they get the dub here. 1139 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 1: So I hate that pick for you, by the way, 1140 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:58,080 Speaker 1: But whatever, I'm rooting like hell for Wake Forest. Excuse me, 1141 00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm rooting like hell for MJ. Morris even though I'm 1142 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 1: picking Wake Forest. I want MJ. Morris to be the 1143 01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:05,960 Speaker 1: next big thing so that Devin Leary takes his talents 1144 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: to South Bend. That's what I'm rooting for. 1145 01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if a quarterback for NC State right now, 1146 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 2: as the coaching staff is currently constituted, can be considered 1147 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 2: the next big thing, because you have to do big 1148 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 2: things in order to be a big thing, and I just. 1149 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,440 Speaker 1: Think it's more difficult in Raleigh. 1150 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 2: I'm going n CY State here. I'm gonna stick to 1151 01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 2: one of the altar of Dan's central tenants, which is 1152 01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 2: a good to really good defense at home. As a dog, 1153 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,480 Speaker 2: sure give me that team, happy to take it, happy 1154 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 2: to take those points. Florida State Miami. 1155 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. Here we go Florida State minus seven and a 1156 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: half at Miami. Yeah. Do we still throw out the records? Please? 1157 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 1: Of course throw them out. Why in the world do 1158 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 1: you bet Miami here? What is Tvd's status? 1159 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,800 Speaker 2: He's gotten better with time, I suppose in this system 1160 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 2: as he's I mean, what's his health status? That's the 1161 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,760 Speaker 2: question to me that it's being evaluated. I'm sure a 1162 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 2: game time decision. I'm going Florida State here. I'm well 1163 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 2: in Florida State here because they have the ability to 1164 01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 2: score more points more often. Right now, this Miami offense 1165 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 2: is broken no matter who the quarterback is, even if 1166 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:11,800 Speaker 2: it's TVD, and even if he's fine, I still do 1167 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 2: not trust Miami to score twenty four to twenty seven, 1168 01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 2: twenty eight points against an okay Florida State team, which 1169 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 2: I think the defense can be scary at times. I'm 1170 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 2: going Florida State here to cover. 1171 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 1: Also, at night, we've got BYU at Boise Boise favored 1172 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 1: by eight points here. I didn't realize this until I 1173 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,280 Speaker 1: look BYU was O for October. 1174 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,160 Speaker 2: Yes, b Yu might be one two three Kancun very 1175 01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 2: quietly donzo Boise State wins this game by twenty points. 1176 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:44,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, Boise Boyse's won their last four games. They've gotten 1177 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 1: it together, playing pretty good defense, So I think I'm 1178 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,920 Speaker 1: with you. Seven thirty. Here we go. Here's a weirdly 1179 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 1: exciting game. James Madison versus Louisville. Yeah. 1180 01:01:56,720 --> 01:02:00,120 Speaker 2: I don't know the status of Centaio Cineo for for 1181 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 2: James Madison, he might be a game time decision. So 1182 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 2: that worries me because if he's not playing, Louislle should 1183 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 2: comfortably win. 1184 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 1: The line is seven and a half in favor of 1185 01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:13,440 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. James Madison is like the second most efficient 1186 01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:16,560 Speaker 1: defense in the country, not the second best. I'm not 1187 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 1: saying the second best, but just from through that lens 1188 01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 1: of efficiency, they're very, very strong, especially against the run. 1189 01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:26,240 Speaker 1: I think it'd be foolish to overlook them. But I 1190 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: just really believe Louisville is undervalued right now, so I'll 1191 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:30,440 Speaker 1: go Louisville minus anything. 1192 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 2: So Louisville comfortably beat Virginia, comfortably beat Pitts, and of 1193 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,440 Speaker 2: course comfortably beat Wake on the back of all of 1194 01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 2: those turnovers. I think Louisville comfortably beats JMU without the 1195 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 2: duke starting quarterback. The Duke's starting quarterback. But that said, 1196 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 2: if he plays, I think I'd be closer to taking 1197 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:52,920 Speaker 2: the points in a letdown spot for Louisvill. But I 1198 01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 2: still think Louisville wins this game. 1199 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 1: Seven thirty Big Ten Network, Michigan minus twenty six on 1200 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 1: the road against Ruck. This is a game last year, 1201 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:04,760 Speaker 1: Remember Michigan won twenty to thirteen, didn't score in the 1202 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 1: second half. Yeah, twenty to thirteen at home. Mind you, 1203 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 1: I do expect there will be a little bit of 1204 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: an extra impetus now that they are fifth, that they 1205 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 1: have a reason to try and run it up as 1206 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:23,200 Speaker 1: best they can. I think the only reason Michigan doesn't 1207 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 1: cover is because they play slowly and they run it 1208 01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: a million times, and Rutgers doesn't give up big plays 1209 01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:30,360 Speaker 1: in the ground. It could just be a bunch of 1210 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:34,520 Speaker 1: twelve play drives that keeps the scoring down. But twenty 1211 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,800 Speaker 1: six doesn't feel like enough, so I think I go 1212 01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:41,200 Speaker 1: Michigan minus whatever. I think I agree with you. Seven 1213 01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:44,960 Speaker 1: point thirty Auburn. Auburn without a coach, and they might 1214 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 1: get that bump in the way that a lot of 1215 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,800 Speaker 1: teams who fight, you know, Asu and Charlotte and Georgia 1216 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:52,200 Speaker 1: Tech and the Phillies. Don't forget the Phillies in the 1217 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:55,400 Speaker 1: World Series ra Wisconsin, the Phillies in the World Series. Sure, 1218 01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:59,959 Speaker 1: Auburn a thirteen point dog on the road at Mississippi State. 1219 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:06,919 Speaker 1: Who you got? I guess Mississippi State. I go Yasibey State. 1220 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 1: I'm Missippi State, all right, final four games here that 1221 01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 1: I'll throw out in that again, late block, We've got 1222 01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 1: Arizona Arizona on the road at Utah Utah, favored by 1223 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 1: seventeen and a half. We've got at seven thirty South 1224 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:23,320 Speaker 1: Carolina seven point favorite on the road at Vandy. We've 1225 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 1: got UCLA favored by ten and a half on the 1226 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 1: road at ASU. That's at nine to thirty. ASU's numbers, 1227 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:32,880 Speaker 1: by the way against the runner a hot mess. So 1228 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 1: don't bound to ASCU there. And last, but certainly not 1229 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:39,800 Speaker 1: least ten thirty ESPN, it's col it is USC the 1230 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 1: Trojans favored by twenty one and a half points. 1231 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:48,880 Speaker 2: I like USC comfortably. I like UCLA comfortably, even on 1232 01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:53,760 Speaker 2: the road with a double digit line. Vanderbilt is an 1233 01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:56,840 Speaker 2: interesting play to me. You pointed out something fascinating that 1234 01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,479 Speaker 2: they've basically been on the road all season long. 1235 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 1: It's Week ten. They've played only three home games so 1236 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:04,320 Speaker 1: far this season. It's incredible. 1237 01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 2: This is a DSB for the Doors, Ty, is it 1238 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:12,439 Speaker 2: not a de facto Super Bowl? I mean, you look 1239 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 2: at the rest of the Doors schedule. I'm just telling 1240 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 2: you right now. South Carolina has struggled to throw the ball. 1241 01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 2: They looked woeful against Miszoo on offense. 1242 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 1: Did they not? They did really bad. 1243 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 2: I'm just saying right here, if we are to believe 1244 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,840 Speaker 2: Vandy believes under Clark Lee and plays with more fire 1245 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 2: than they have lately. Turning to some younger players, They've 1246 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:42,560 Speaker 2: been good up front, stopping the run at times. I 1247 01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 2: think it's an especially nice matchup to have a defense 1248 01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 2: that plays with some guts in a de facto Super Bowl. 1249 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 2: I like me the doors here, Ty, I'm gonna plant 1250 01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:53,720 Speaker 2: my flag. 1251 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:56,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna rename to Danderbilt if they win this one. 1252 01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 1: Danderbilt Dandy very quickly. Some Thursday night Friday night action 1253 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 1: just to call out app State Coastal Ooh, huge Thursday 1254 01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:11,400 Speaker 1: evening for those listening to this show. Thursday app State 1255 01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:12,720 Speaker 1: favored by a point and a half, should be a 1256 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 1: really good game. I think they beat them. I think 1257 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:16,640 Speaker 1: they beat Coastal. I think they're able to run on them, 1258 01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,520 Speaker 1: and they've got a better defense too. So I'm gonna 1259 01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:23,400 Speaker 1: go app State ten thirty. We've got Oregon State on 1260 01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:25,800 Speaker 1: the road at Washington, another interesting matchup. I think I 1261 01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:29,120 Speaker 1: go Washington at home. Don't do that minus three and 1262 01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:31,120 Speaker 1: a half. I'm going to go Muskie's at home. I 1263 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,919 Speaker 1: got like Oregon State here. And finally Friday night, it's 1264 01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:38,720 Speaker 1: Duke minus nine and a half against Boston College. Mind you, 1265 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:42,240 Speaker 1: BC just lost to Yukon thirteen to three. If memory 1266 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:45,360 Speaker 1: scored three on Yukon and Jeff Hafley got a vote 1267 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 1: of confidence, vote of confine. Right, Yeah, so probably not 1268 01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 1: premature to chalk this one up as Duke's sixth win 1269 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:57,520 Speaker 1: to get Bowl eligible. I think that's probably right. Yeah, 1270 01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 1: that is all I have, Dan, That's it. 1271 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 2: That's it there. I mean, we had a couple of 1272 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:07,000 Speaker 2: results already. Ohio b Buffalo in an impressive MAX showing 1273 01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 2: forty five to twenty four. Ball State took down Kent 1274 01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 2: State Tuesday night. Maction Tuesday Night Max. You see the fumble, 1275 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:16,760 Speaker 2: I did not what happened? 1276 01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:18,800 Speaker 1: There was a fumble in this game. We tweeted it out. 1277 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 1: There was a fumble in this game where sort of 1278 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:26,400 Speaker 1: a mysterious score through situation, but the running back made 1279 01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 1: it through. He's running, he's running, he's running. 1280 01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:32,120 Speaker 3: Loist loist, loist loist. 1281 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:33,720 Speaker 1: Run and run and running, and then a guy punches 1282 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 1: it out from behind and just like whoop, ball flies 1283 01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:40,360 Speaker 1: up into the night sky, recovered by the defense. I 1284 01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:44,240 Speaker 1: always appreciate that. A mysterious score through SMU Houston, Houston 1285 01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,040 Speaker 1: quietly getting things together. I know it's been a disappointing 1286 01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:50,080 Speaker 1: season given where expectations were before the season, but that 1287 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 1: game is in Dallas. Elsewhere I saw something else in 1288 01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:57,640 Speaker 1: the Mountain, like Fresno States hosting Hawaii. They should get 1289 01:07:57,640 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 1: themselves closer. The three in one of the Mountain West 1290 01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: San Jose State very quietly succeeding once again. They can 1291 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 1: get Bowl eligible against a very bad Colorado State team, 1292 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,760 Speaker 1: and I expect them to do so. I mentioned the 1293 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 1: Rice game, Georgia Southern trying to get bowl eligible. They've 1294 01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 1: got a good South Alabama team, the Jags. That game 1295 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 1: is at Georgia Southern in Paulson Stadium. Tie. 1296 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 2: How about that North Texas can get Bowl eligible. Troy 1297 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,680 Speaker 2: is already Bowl eligible. Have an interesting matchup on the 1298 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 2: road against Louisiana, who they've gotten better. But Troy is 1299 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:30,160 Speaker 2: favored in that matchup. Navy Cincinnati. I don't think Navy's 1300 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,759 Speaker 2: all that good since he's already Bowl eligible. You mentioned 1301 01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:38,600 Speaker 2: Arkansas Liberty UAB UTSA you ab. Yeah, the game is 1302 01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:42,240 Speaker 2: in Birmingham. Utah State just lost their athletic director midyear. 1303 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 2: They're hosting New Mexico. They should win that game. That's 1304 01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:47,879 Speaker 2: me going out on a limb. You mentioned Memphis UCF 1305 01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:52,080 Speaker 2: is a really strong game. That'll be interesting. Southern Michigan 1306 01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,280 Speaker 2: Bowl eligible with a win over Georgia State, which I 1307 01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 2: think they should win. Otherwise, No, Marshall still standing at 1308 01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:01,400 Speaker 2: four and fours, trying to win once more. They have 1309 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,719 Speaker 2: Western Kentucky. I just at this point, can you drop 1310 01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:09,880 Speaker 2: that big stanky drum and fife. 1311 01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:15,840 Speaker 1: Already? Dan, here we go twelve pm Eastern time. It 1312 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 1: is Lehigh at one and seven at holy Cross eight 1313 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 1: and zero, Dan. 1314 01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 2: Let down, spot tye. Do the the engineers have it 1315 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 2: in them? 1316 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 1: No?
