Good morning to you all as we 16 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 4: get you set up for a full slate of college 17 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 4: football action. Five count them, five ranked versus ranked games today, 18 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 4: not three? Right, Look at look at Christopher Fett on 19 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 4: his age. I was impressive potting it down before he 20 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 4: said not five. Right, that was that was slick on 21 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 4: the fly. Hey, listen. A lot of college football to 22 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 4: get to, obviously, but we have to start off with 23 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 4: Freddie Freeman because that was last night. I mean goodness, guys, right, 24 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 4: we're talking Game one of the World Series. Freddie Freeman 25 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 4: walk off Grand Slam with two outs to go in like, 26 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 4: that's insane what we just saw last night, and that 27 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 4: was the first ever walk off Grand Slam in World 28 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 4: Series history, and the epic call of Gibbie meet Freddy 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 4: because of course Kurt Gibson did that long time ago 30 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 4: in the late eighties, right, and now we see the 31 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 4: same thing with Freddy Freeman both in Game one and 32 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 4: that was just off the charts insanity last night, but 33 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 4: a ton of fun and in extra innings to boot 34 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 4: that was in the tenth inning and the Dodgers were 35 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 4: trailing by a run down to their last out. Could 36 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 4: not get more dramatic. 37 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it really can't. 38 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 5: And I'm glad that the call referenced Gibson because the crossover. 39 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 3: There is undeniable, you know. Game one and then. 40 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 2: By the way, that was the nineteen eighty eight. 41 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 5: World Series for the Dodgers, the last World Series. 42 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 3: That they've won in a full season. 43 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 2: Now. 44 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 5: I understand they won the pandemic World Series, but that 45 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 5: was a shortened season and that was a very different 46 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 5: set of circumstances with home field advantage being taken away 47 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 5: from teams, and we know how much that can have 48 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 5: an effect. I mean, I think we saw that effect 49 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 5: last night in front of a packed house in LA. 50 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 5: But that was just sensational everything about it. The World 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 5: Series more than any other sporting event because there is 52 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 5: time for the game to breathe, whereas opposed to an 53 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 5: NBA championship or a Super Bowl or even a national 54 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 5: championship on the court for college basketball, it doesn't feel 55 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 5: that way. It feels like you can really get lost 56 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 5: in the moments and hang on the drama and it's just. 57 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: Gonna go until it's done, you know. 58 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 5: And so knowing that in the back of your mind 59 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 5: and then seeing somebody heroically end the game the way 60 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 5: that Freddy Freeman did last night, that is sensational stuff. 61 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 5: It doesn't matter who you root for, because I'm sure 62 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 5: there were a lot of stomachs turned around the country 63 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 5: because not everybody loves the Dodgers, but you gotta love 64 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 5: seeing somebody step into a moment and make the best 65 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 5: of that moment. And that's exactly what Freeman did after 66 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 5: having kind of a tough season all season, finding his stride, 67 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 5: especially down the stretch for the Dodgers that was the 68 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 5: World Series. Has star did the exact way you wanted 69 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 5: to when you have two vaunted historic franchises facing each other. 70 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 6: There were people that said this was gonna be the 71 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 6: worst World Series ever because of the two teams in it. 72 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: Wow, you know, just the fan bases. 73 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 6: And the you know, people don't like when the teams 74 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 6: that have the most money and the most success win. 75 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 6: We like the underdogs. That's the culture we live in 76 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 6: and my rebuttal to that. So I'm for those of 77 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 6: you who don't know, we don't talk a ton of 78 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 6: baseball and show. I'm a dieard Yankees fan since birth. 79 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 6: My family has been Yankees fans since their existence. And 80 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 6: when this World Series came to fruition, and that was 81 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 6: the take that I saw this on my timeline. Like now, 82 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 6: granted I'm probably on social media too much, but it. 83 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: Was just, oh, the worst fan base is so insufferable. 84 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 6: You know, money buys championships, and I'm just like people like, 85 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 6: these are the two most iconic teams in sports and 86 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 6: they're all so the two best teams this season, Like isn't. 87 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 2: That what the whole point of sports is about? 88 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 6: Like, give me the best on the best and let's 89 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 6: roll the ball out and play and see who's better. 90 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 6: And the MVP caliber talent in this World Series is incredible. 91 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 2: We haven't had a. 92 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 6: MVP in either league playing the World Series since ironically 93 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 6: Mookie Betts in twenty eighteen with the Red Sox, and 94 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 6: now he's on the other team in the other league. 95 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 6: We have both MVPs in both leagues. That's happened once 96 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 6: since nineteen eighty, so it just Obviously I'm a little 97 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 6: disappointed with the result of last night's game, but the 98 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 6: gravitas of this World Series is unbelievable. It's unlike anything 99 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 6: I've ever experienced in thirty eight years on Earth, because 100 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 6: I wasn't alive for those you know, ridiculous world series 101 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 6: back in the fifties and sixties, and when these teams 102 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 6: are really playing each other hard. 103 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: And even the one in the eighties, even the one 104 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 2: in the late seventies. So I am. I hope it 105 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:03,679 Speaker 2: turns around for my Yankees. 106 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 6: But I'm very excited to watch this unfold because if 107 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 6: you don't like this World Series, then you're just not 108 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 6: a fan. 109 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 2: You either hate yourself or you hate baseball, probably both. 110 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 4: After hearing that, my thought is, I hope you didn't 111 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 4: bet the Yankees and the under on I bet, I 112 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 4: bet I didn't even lose it. Okay, I think I think. 113 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 6: This is the first Baseball World Series in probably ten years, 114 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 6: or I'm not going to bet it. 115 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: I want to enjoy it. I want to sit back 116 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: and want to enjoy. 117 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 4: Wait a minute, you don't enjoy sports that you bet on? 118 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 2: Cheered? 119 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 4: I thought, that's what what we do, and it's just 120 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 4: not stuff. 121 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 6: Enjoyment, that's the fun right out of it. Get me, No, 122 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 6: it's just a different This is like, it's like a 123 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 6: different level of emotion for me with this World Series 124 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 6: because I haven't I'll get a little emotion with you guys. Now, 125 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 6: I haven't watched the Yankees in the World Series and 126 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 6: so nine Obviously, my dad is the reason why I'm 127 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 6: a Yankees fan. My dad passed in twenty twenty, so 128 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 6: this is the first time I'm watching the Yankees in 129 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 6: the World Series without him and last. So so it's just 130 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 6: I'm just kind of recusing. 131 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 2: Myself from gambling in this whole series. I'm just enjoying it. 132 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 4: We get it, man, We hope you do enjoy it. 133 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 4: We'll see how it turns out. Because man, that was 134 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 4: that was a blow in Game one for the Yankees. 135 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 4: It was such a good game though, And really what 136 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 4: I thought about, and you can tie this into football, NFL, 137 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 4: college football, basketball, I thought about Alex Verdugo. Okay, so 138 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 4: if you didn't watch the game last night, it's this 139 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 4: dramatic moment in the tenth inning where there's one out, 140 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 4: Alex Verdugo in left field makes this sensational catch in 141 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 4: fall territory. He goes up, he makes the grabby falls 142 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: into the stands right. It was like it was jeteresque. Really, 143 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 4: that is what it was. And then the next at 144 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 4: bat Freddie Freeman, it's a Grand Slam and this epic 145 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: catches a total footnote. And so this is of course 146 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 4: a baseball thing, like the Ndie Javez catch for the 147 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 4: Mets against the Cardinals a long time ago. It goes 148 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 4: on and on football. What it made me think of 149 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,559 Speaker 4: was the last Super Bowl. Guys, we were inches away 150 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 4: from perdy palooza. 151 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. 152 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 4: Can you imagine if Brock Purdy, who led a field 153 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 4: goal drive in overtime, if the Niners held on to 154 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 4: win that game, what you would have heard. You had 155 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 4: purty fanboys lining up to just rage in the face 156 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 4: of anyone who had the slightest criticism to say it 157 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 4: would have been perty did what Mahomes couldn't do. He 158 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 4: scored an over time. Oh my gosh, it would have 159 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 4: been obnoxious. But if you spin this toward college football, 160 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 4: because this is mostly a college football show, what else 161 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 4: comes to mind? What epic moment turned into a footnote 162 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 4: because it got upstaged by the other team in another moment? 163 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 4: Anything come to mind for you, guys man? 164 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 2: How about the. 165 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 5: Uh, the Sam Darnold Trace McSorley Rose Bowl. 166 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 2: That was why after the Yankees game last night, you 167 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 2: got to bring that. 168 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 5: Up, Brandy. But so USC wins it over Penn State. 169 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 5: But do you remember the fireworks of that game? 170 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: Made me. 171 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 5: One of those teams, one of those players was gonna 172 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 5: have to be the hero that night, and it ended 173 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 5: up going the Trojan's way. But I mean college football. 174 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 5: It's beautiful about college football football is the fact that 175 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 5: you get so many opportunities all throughout the season, but 176 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 5: also all throughout the postseason with a very inflated bowl season, 177 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 5: to have these magical moments that everybody seems to remember, 178 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 5: you know, and you know what, it's actually it's so 179 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 5: funny that you you're focused on the one moment, and 180 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 5: and you're asking about how it applies like I remember 181 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 5: in my own life the same way. Freddie Freeman was 182 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 5: talking after the game about how him and his brothers 183 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 5: with two older brothers, playing wiffle ball in the backyard, 184 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 5: and it was always two outs. It was always the 185 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 5: bottom of the ninth or the extra innings in the 186 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 5: World Series, where you set it up in your backyard 187 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 5: that you're going to deliver the run that wins the 188 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 5: game for your team. And for him to actually go 189 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 5: out there and do it, he said, it's just as 190 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 5: good as it gets. And I remember myself as a 191 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 5: young kid, and basketball was my sport growing up, and 192 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 5: then I moved on to lacrosse, and then I moved 193 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 5: on too football, and that's the sport I ended up 194 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 5: playing in college and professionally. But how many times I 195 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 5: pretended I was just like Mike and I was in 196 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 5: my driveway dribbling the basketball and counting down the shot 197 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 5: clock to win the NBA Championship. 198 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 2: It's just the way sports work. 199 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 5: You see moments like this, Freddie Freeman walking it off, 200 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 5: you see any of those college football moments that come 201 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 5: to mind for you while listening to this and and 202 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 5: there are kids, I promise you in their backyards waking 203 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 5: up this morning and they're gonna be doing the same 204 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 5: exact thing, and those are gonna be the heroes in 205 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 5: twenty years. 206 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: I love I love all this stuff. 207 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 5: I mean, you know the line from Moneyball, It's hard, 208 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 5: it's hard not to get romantic about baseball because this 209 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 5: is what it is, this is the reason why we watch. 210 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 5: And what a start to the World Series. I am 211 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 5: so fired up for a great weeknd a college football 212 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 5: after getting getting to dip our toes into the Major 213 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 5: League Baseball postseason's closing show, I. 214 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 6: Got one for you. Yeah, Bama Georgia twenty eighteen title. 215 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 6: Mikael Hartman had the eighty r touchdown in the third 216 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 6: quarter for Georgia up twenty to seven. Yeah, and then 217 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,599 Speaker 6: Bama comes back, ties it and then debouta Smith in 218 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 6: overtime from Tua. 219 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: That was sweet. 220 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 4: That's yeah, And that's right, that's in the where Georgia 221 00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 4: is what like eighty It was a touchdown last nineteen 222 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 4: eighty the last time they had all championship, you know 223 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 4: what I mean? 224 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 6: Drout Yeah, yeah, that was and I remember that game. 225 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 4: Touchdown long championship drought. 226 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 3: My bad. 227 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 6: Sorry, I remember that game, and I mean that was 228 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 6: like a ninety percent I'm looking at the box score now, 229 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 6: Georgia at the peak at a ninety two and a 230 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 6: half percent win probability. Yeah, and then lost the game 231 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 6: in overtime. That was a nut That was a nutty 232 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 6: college football final. 233 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 5: And that was when Tua finished game. But Jalen Hurts started. Yeah, 234 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 5: that's right, Yeah, I believe it's god, Oh my god, 235 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 5: you're absolutely that that. That game had so many storylines. 236 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 5: By the end of it, it was OsO. 237 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jalen hur went three of eight. Yeah, and he 238 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 2: was hurt, he had the ankle or something. 239 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 5: And then Tua, who was the kid, he was a 240 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 5: sophomore or whatever, he comes into the game in the 241 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 5: second half and he pulls it off. Saban looked like 242 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 5: he was insane coming out of the tunnel at halftime, 243 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 5: and then he was basically carried out of. 244 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 2: The state in Georgia. 245 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 6: Dudes in that Georgia's roster in that game, Now, Jake 246 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 6: from the quarterback won't move the needle, but they had 247 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 6: Sony Michelle, Nick Chubb, DeAndre Swift, Miko Hardman's the one 248 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 6: who had the eighty r catch like that Georgia was 249 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 6: I mean both teams obviously back Najia Harris about this 250 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 6: Smith Calvin Ridley Ruggs on the other side, Damien Harris 251 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 6: like that. 252 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 2: That might have been the best college football game in 253 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 2: our in our life. 254 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 4: That was insid good ball, that was insane. I mean, 255 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 4: you could play that game forever where there there have 256 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 4: to be so many moments. Of course I go straight 257 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 4: to Notre Dame and like this, they're better moments than 258 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 4: you know. But I still am scarred from ninety three 259 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 4: when Notre Dame scored this dramatic touchdown against Boston College 260 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 4: to keep an undefeated season alive. That was the week 261 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 4: after they beat Florida State and the number one versus 262 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 4: number two. Yeah, and the next thing I know, Boston 263 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 4: College is like steadily moving it downfield, just nickel and 264 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 4: diming and then kicking the walk off field goal. Stuff 265 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 4: like that where you think, oh, this is gonna be 266 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 4: an epic moment, and it's just a footnote, you know, 267 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 4: because it gets upstaged. You remember real fast. Remember when 268 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 4: I think it was LSU against Kentucky, they gave the 269 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 4: gatorade bath to the Kentucky coach. 270 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 6: That was one of the I don't know, but. 271 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 4: It was this crazy deflected hail Mary And the next 272 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 4: thing you know, Lsu is running into the end zone 273 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 4: as the Kentucky coach has gatorade all over him. 274 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: Like watch the Bluegrass Miracle. That's on Wikipedia. 275 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, there are some Alex Verdugo moments in college football 276 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 4: where what seems to be an epic moment gets upstaged 277 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 4: and the previous epic moment is no longer quite an 278 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 4: epic moment, right, Like, that's the way it goes.

All right, 310 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 4: So we've got Missouri ranked number twenty one against Alabama 311 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 4: ranked fifteenth, and Alabama is the five and two team. 312 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 4: Missouri is the six and one team. And how about 313 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 4: this for Bama. They haven't They've already lost twice in October. Okay, 314 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 4: and the last time that Alabama lost two games in 315 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 4: the same calendar you have to go all the way 316 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 4: back to November of two thousand and seven. How about that, 317 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 4: we're talking November of seven. Since they've lost twice in 318 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 4: the same calendar month, they have a chance today to 319 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 4: lose for a third time. I doubt it happens against 320 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 4: Missouri with their injury issues, most notably Brady Cook, the 321 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 4: quarterback's got an ankle injury. He's gonna try to go, 322 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 4: but I seem like he's closed to one hundred percent. 323 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 4: I don't know how long he'll last in the game, 324 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 4: assuming he does go in the first place. So it's 325 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 4: probably a Bama win. But this is territory that Bama 326 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 4: fans are not too used to. You're talking seventeen years, 327 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 4: they haven't watched their team lose twice in a calendar month. 328 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 4: They have this year though. 329 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 2: Loot at stake for both these teams. 330 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 5: When you look at Alabama three losses, I mean, that 331 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 5: is gonna be a hard argument to make the playoffs, 332 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 5: even with the expanded bracket. And then you look at Missouri, 333 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 5: and Missouri's issues are I mean, even though they only 334 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 5: have one loss, they had to come back from an 335 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 5: eleven point deficit to beat Auburn and they got their 336 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 5: doors blown off by Texas. 337 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 3: So they need this. 338 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 5: Win like blood because the matchup is really an elimination 339 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 5: for the conference, you know, I mean, just like Boise 340 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 5: State UNLV actually last night, you know, you look at 341 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 5: that game in terms of the implications of a playoff 342 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 5: seed for one of these two teams. 343 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 2: Boise State beats UNLV. 344 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 5: It was a close one, came down to the last 345 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 5: minute with Gen d the runaway favorite. 346 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 2: For the Heisman. 347 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 5: In my opinion, he is the best player in the 348 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 5: country right now, had one of his lowest output games 349 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 5: the game on the ground with one hundred and twenty 350 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 5: eight runching yards and a touchdown. 351 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 2: But I digress. 352 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 5: I mean UNLV needed that win to remain in the 353 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 5: conversation to make the playoffs. So does Alabama like that 354 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 5: that is that is where we're at with Alabama. 355 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 2: You they cannot lose. 356 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 5: This game, and and so it's amazing how like here 357 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 5: we are. I mean, we're at the halfway point of 358 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 5: the season and and this game matters as much as 359 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 5: any game they're gonna play in the playoff if they 360 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 5: make the playoffs. 361 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, the number in this game's been bouncing around the 362 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: last day or so because of the Brady Cook News. 363 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 6: So I gave I actually gave Alabama on our I 364 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 6: do you know the Friday best bet video for bet 365 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 6: MGM that we send out on our Fox Sports Radio 366 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 6: social channels, And I was writing up Bama and I. 367 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,959 Speaker 2: Was like, man, I really like this spot for Bama. 368 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 6: And then the Brady Cook News comes out right after 369 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 6: I give out the pick, the line jumps two points. 370 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 6: So I still think Bama's decided in this game. I 371 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 6: this number is just screaming Bama, like what. 372 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 2: Have we seen? 373 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 6: Like they were a three touchdown dog or a three 374 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 6: touchdown favorite against Vandy, lose out right field goal favorite 375 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 6: last week, lose that Tennessee and now they're laying almost 376 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 6: three touchdowns again. I Mean people are probably looking at 377 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 6: this line like ranked versus ranked, and let's be honest, 378 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 6: people ignore the rankings. 379 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 2: The rankings are meaningless. 380 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 6: The only number that matters is the one that comes 381 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 6: after the team, not before the team, which is the 382 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 6: point sport. But you just look at this Missouri team 383 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 6: and I think when they manage up, they're a pumpkin 384 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 6: happy Halloween. 385 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: Everybody like it. 386 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 6: Just when they go on the road in SEC play. 387 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 6: They've done it this year one time in really bad fashion. 388 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 6: They're one high leverage road game in the SEC, fall 389 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 6: behind thirty four nothing, lose by thirty one at A 390 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 6: and M. So to me, that's who Missouri is at 391 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 6: their core. They're a good football team that doesn't play 392 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 6: great when they manage up. I think Bama is a 393 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 6: good football team that has the ability to beat anybody 394 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 6: on any given Saturday because they have the magician in the. 395 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 2: Backfield, Jalen Milroe. 396 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 6: Now sometimes it could be like the street magic you 397 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 6: see on the since in the Las Vegas Boulevard with the. 398 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 2: Three card Moni. 399 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 6: But when he's right, this is an explosive Bama offense. 400 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 2: Missouri's defense has actually. 401 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 6: Been really good at limiting explosives this year, but against 402 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 6: SEC play they have not like They've given up sixteen 403 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 6: explosives on the ear that's the second fewest in the nation. 404 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 6: But in three SEC games, eleven of those sixteen explosives 405 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 6: have come. So when they manage up it just I 406 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 6: don't like this Missouri team against good competition. That's where 407 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 6: I think they struggle and Bama needs this game like blood. 408 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 6: As has Rich said, I love that phrase so much. 409 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 6: I think the Tide roll here, I really do. 410 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 4: I haven't thought of Jalen Milroe as a street performer 411 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 4: till now. 412 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 6: Right, but right, go walk down Las Vegas Boulevard on 413 00:21:58,640 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 6: a Friday night. 414 00:21:59,160 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 2: You'll see what I'm talking. 415 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 4: Every artists some are some are completely legit. Right, someone's 416 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 4: like break dancing on his own face, and you're like, 417 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 4: and so sometimes Milroe is like that. He's extraordinary at times. 418 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 4: And then to your point, Jared, every now and then 419 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 4: you get the street performer where you're like, this guy 420 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 4: is a total scammer totally. So yeah, every now and 421 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 4: then Jalen Milroe is inaccurate and not nearly as dynamics. 422 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 4: So it's a mixed bag. I'll tell you what it's going. 423 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 4: It's not gonna be a mixed bag. It's going to 424 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 4: be a bad bag if Brady Cook can't go and listen. 425 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 4: I don't want to disparage anyone, but Drew Pine. We 426 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 4: turned into Boomer real fast. You know, if he's going 427 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 4: in enemy territory with Bama already losing twice in the 428 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 4: same calendar month, straight off of a loss Tennessee, that's 429 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 4: that's really bad. If it's territory here. 430 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, And and look, Jalen Milroe is a better 431 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 5: quarterback than he's shown against two of arguably the better 432 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 5: defenses you're gonna see in college football, with South Carolina 433 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 5: and Tennessee. You know, those those are good coverage units. 434 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 5: Those are teams that you know, there's a variety of 435 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: things you'll see with both of them. You know, a 436 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 5: confluence of philosophies of how to attack Jalen Milroe and 437 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 5: keep those Alabama explosives down. 438 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 6: Uh. 439 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 3: Sometimes you'll sit back and. 440 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 5: Coverage and you know you'll force him to evaluate the 441 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 5: field and throw underneath. Sometimes you'll blitz him and the 442 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 5: same the same outcome is being produced. You get pressure 443 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 5: on Milroe, he's gonna have to throw it to somebody 444 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 5: quickly closer to the line of scrimmage, and both of 445 00:23:53,920 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 5: those strategies have worked against uh USC and Tennessee. Against 446 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 5: against this Missouri defense, They're gonna allow much more downfield, 447 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 5: and Milroe his dependence on the deep ball and Alabama's 448 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 5: dependence offensively on the deep ball, I don't think he's 449 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 5: gonna be thwarted. I think they're gonna kind of If 450 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 5: I'm reading this game correctly, I agree with you, Jared. 451 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 5: I think this is Bama again and rolling again. I 452 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 5: think this is the Crimson Tide looking like the prominent 453 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 5: national figure that you know, they were building themselves up 454 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 5: to be before they had some hiccups this season, and 455 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 5: so I think this is a little bit of a Hey, 456 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 5: you know what, they've got an injury at their most 457 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 5: important position. We're healthy, and we're facing a defense that's 458 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 5: gonna allow us to do what we want to do. 459 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 5: Let's roll, and I think that's essentially what happens with Bama. 460 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good breakdown. I like that analysis a lot. 461 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 6: I think when you look get what Bama is as 462 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 6: a team, this is a matchup that favors them, where 463 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 6: Tennessee didn't favor them. Like Tennessee, they just they're just 464 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 6: so helter skelter on both sides of the ball. It's 465 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 6: very hard to prepare for that. I every college football 466 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 6: podcast I listened to with like really sharp people, every 467 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 6: time you're getting ready to play Tennessee, every vibe is 468 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,640 Speaker 6: this is the toughest prep that you're gonna have. And 469 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 6: Kalin de Bor is kind of in this in between 470 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 6: period right now with Bama. I think Bama's in a 471 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 6: really interesting spots as a program right now. It just 472 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 6: we thought the board was gonna come in and it 473 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 6: was gonna click right away, or maybe you were down 474 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 6: on them heading into the year, whatever your opinion was. 475 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: I think the problem. 476 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 6: Was, or at least what I'm what I'm analyzing with 477 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 6: Alabama so far as they're kind of caught in betwixt 478 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 6: and in between. Like for example, this is what I mean. 479 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 6: Washington really liked to run wide zone last year. That 480 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 6: was like their heavy run concept under the bore, and 481 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 6: they were really good at it. They had panics in 482 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 6: the pistol and they had these great backs and they 483 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 6: would spread you out with these receivers and they would 484 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 6: just run the edge, crush the edges with these runs. Well, 485 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 6: now we've got Jalen Noilroe, who's not a wide zone quarterback, 486 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 6: he's shotgun quarterback zone right RPO type stuff. And Rich, 487 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 6: I'm sure you can attest to this, the difference in 488 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 6: schemes blocking schemes going from wide zone to. 489 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 2: RPO zone. Read, it's like night and day. 490 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 5: It's completely different, exactly set a different circumstances. 491 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 2: Wide zone it's such a sideline. 492 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 5: To sideline game where you know, the play could literally 493 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 5: break at any point. It could break as far out 494 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 5: as the short alley near the sideline between the twenties 495 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 5: and the sideline, or it could be cut all the 496 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 5: way back the opposite direction, or anything in between. With 497 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 5: the RPO game, like you're saying, Jared, a lot of kidders, 498 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 5: you know, a lot of eye discipline, especially at the 499 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 5: second level from your linebackers. 500 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 3: It is night and day in terms of scheme fit. 501 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, so you've got pretty much it's like the boor 502 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 6: square peg, round hole. And I'm not gonna say that 503 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 6: the Boor won't figure it out, but he obviously it's 504 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 6: a little bit. He's kind of cut in between with 505 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 6: how he wants to get this offense rolling. And then 506 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 6: you've got Jalen Milroe, who I love, but he's limited. 507 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 6: He doesn't make full field progressions, slow processing speed right, Like, 508 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 6: it's just it's boom or bust. 509 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 2: It just it. It feels like the boor. 510 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 6: Last year with Pennix, it was read one, read two, 511 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 6: read three, maybe back to read four and then you 512 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 6: know progressions. So it's a it's a learning curve. And 513 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 6: I think Kalen de Boor is a great coach. I 514 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 6: think he's gonna figure this out. They have better players 515 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 6: at Baman. They had a Washington but this is only 516 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 6: what a seventh eighth game. It's gonna take some time. 517 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 6: And then you get the personality differences. Nick Saban was 518 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 6: like mister football, hard heart, Oh like hard old school football. 519 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 2: That's not Kaylen de Boor. 520 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 6: They're a little bit more loosey, goosey. That's their personality. 521 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 6: That's Kaylen de Boor's personality. He's a little more low 522 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 6: key compared to Nick Saban, who's just like, like from 523 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 6: what I've heard, he's kind of the anti Saban. So 524 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 6: this takes time. You have a program that has been 525 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 6: you know, at the top of college football forever and 526 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 6: now they're changing. 527 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 4: Man listening to you guys betwixt thwarted. Good lord, you 528 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 4: Penn State scholars. You my gosh, I thought this was 529 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 4: a locker room. It turned into like an assembly or 530 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 4: something like. 531 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 2: Wow, smart football talk. 532 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 3: This is wow alright. 533 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 4: Speaking of smart, you know, we've got our guy, Isaac 534 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 4: Lowen Tron. He is always smart, well read, and can 535 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 4: dumb it down to a locker room level as well. 536 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 4: And that has a compliment. 537 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 2: What's going on? 538 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 7: I low in reverse order, I lead with dumbing it down. 539 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 7: By the way, the name of the show the show 540 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 7: well now we renamed the college Football Algonquin Roundtable after 541 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 7: the last segment and all the multi syllabic words. Fella's 542 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 7: Game one of the World Series on Friday night saw 543 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 7: the Los Angeles Dodgers trailed the Yankees three to two 544 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 7: with two out of the bottom of the tenth inning, 545 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 7: but the Dodgers had the bases loaded for Freddy Freeman sports. 546 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 2: As the. 547 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 5: Game sounds, those are the kind of things when you're 548 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 5: five years old and. 549 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 8: Your two older brothers can play football in the backyard. 550 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 5: And the scenaries of scenarios kinda dream about base loaded 551 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 5: to out in the Light Series game and for it 552 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 5: to actually happen and hit a home run and walk 553 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 5: it off to give us one nothing lead. 554 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 3: That's that's as good as it gets right there. 555 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 7: The excitement over Freeman's grand slam home run to win 556 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 7: the game extending all the way to the Los Angeles 557 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 7: Public Library Fellas, which tweeted after the home run and 558 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 7: I quote, free books for Freddie Freeman for life unquote. 559 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 560 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,479 Speaker 7: Think about that, America for a moment. Meanwhile, I decided 561 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 7: to look at some of the comments underneath that tweet, 562 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 7: Talia posting quote, aren't all your books free for everyone? Dan, 563 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 7: you're a public library, All the books are free to everyone? 564 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 7: And Cleo commenting, Wait, aren't the books free for everyone? 565 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 2: Ahi? Yes, are the books free? Isaac? 566 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 7: Well, last time I checked her. I'll Simon in big 567 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 7: trouble in the NBA on Friday night, Anthony Davis scored 568 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 7: thirty five as the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Phoenix 569 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 7: Suns one twenty three to one, sixteen first two and 570 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 7: oh start for the Lakers in fourteen years. Brandon Ingram 571 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 7: the game winning jumper with four point nine to play, 572 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 7: giving New Orleans a one five, one to oh three 573 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 7: victory at Portland and the Golden State Warriors Utah by 574 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 7: forty one points one twenty seven to eighty six. Buddy 575 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 7: Heald scored twenty seven off the bench, including seven to 576 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 7: three pointers. 577 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 4: Guys, well, thank you, I lo it is Fox Sports 578 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 4: Radios Compdown to Kickoff, presented by Bett MGM. How about 579 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 4: the Hoosiers? Okay, cliffs notes version over here right, twenty 580 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 4: four seconds on the shot clock for everybody, but uh, 581 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 4: you know, a little love for the Hoosiers. Seven and 582 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 4: zero rank number thirteen in the country, taken on Washington. 583 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 4: Washington is four and three. This is an early kicktime. 584 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 4: But Indiana without their starting quarterback Curtis Rourke had thumb surgery. 585 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 4: He might only miss this game. There's some optimism he's 586 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 4: only out for one game, but this is a big game. 587 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 4: Tavan Jackson, He's got five career starts. He steps in 588 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 4: in place of Curtis Rourke and the Hoosiers try to 589 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 4: keep it going. Their defense has been pretty impressive, but 590 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 4: this is the first offense. This is the best offense 591 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 4: on paper that they'll face so far. Washington can move 592 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 4: the ball. They're just having all sorts of problems in 593 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 4: the red zone. They cannot get it done in the 594 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 4: red zone, but they can move it. So we'll see 595 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 4: what this Indiana defense has in store. And how about 596 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 4: this college game day is over there, first time ever 597 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 4: in Bloomington. Wow, and they've got a backup quarterback going. 598 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 4: So hey, we'll see if they can march toward eight 599 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 4: and O keep it going. But this is a different 600 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 4: this is a different place for IU with expectations, with 601 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 4: all this positivity going on here football wise, and we'll 602 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 4: see if they can keep the train moving for another week. 603 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, Washington is in a rebuild season. They lost some 604 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 5: incredibly talented football players and they're trying to get back 605 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 5: on track. They have a really efficient quarterback, but they're 606 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 5: going into a hornet's nest. I mean, this team has 607 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 5: been rolling in Bloomington, and even though it's s Tavin 608 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 5: Jackson taking over at quarterback, he's been efficient when he's 609 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 5: been in this season. Really short sample size, really short 610 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 5: sample size. I think he's thrown sixteen passes on the year, 611 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 5: and he wasn't particularly good before this year. 612 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 2: So we'll see what we have. 613 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 5: My guess is, if I were to guess what the 614 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 5: plan's gonna be for Indiana today, run the football. You know, 615 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 5: a lot of snaps to Ellison and Lawton, who if 616 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 5: you look at the yards per carry they're eating. The 617 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 5: problem is Indiana didn't want to do that because they 618 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 5: didn't really have to do it, and it's not really 619 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 5: what their DNA was throughout the course of the season 620 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 5: so far. 621 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 2: But you got to make adjustments. 622 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 5: You got to take the pressure off of a guy 623 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 5: stepping into a role for the first time this season. 624 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 3: And so that's what that's my guess. 625 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 5: I think you're gonna see, not necessarily Indiana trying to 626 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 5: slow the game down, but they will end up shortening 627 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 5: the game with lessing completions and keeping the ball in 628 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 5: their running backs hands over the course of the day today. 629 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 2: That's what I would do. 630 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 6: You might hear one or two of the Indiana running 631 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 6: backs names during the pro segment we're going to do 632 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 6: in about an hour. Ellison and Lawton have been really 633 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 6: good this year, and Washington really struggles to stop the run. 634 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 6: Here's a here's a nice nugget. I was actually doing 635 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 6: some research on Jackson this morning. I did not know 636 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 6: that he was related to Drace Jackson Davis, the Indiana 637 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 6: All American. 638 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 2: He's his little brother. I mean that. 639 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 3: Listen, you want to. 640 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 2: Talk about Indiana Royalty. 641 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, you're the little brother of a former basketball All 642 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 6: American that's now in the NBA. I'd say you're in 643 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 6: pretty good shape. I don't know about his game. He's 644 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 6: attempted eighteen passes this year. Last year he attempted one 645 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,760 Speaker 6: hundred and twenty eight passes. He was a, you know, an. 646 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 2: Average quarterback in the backup ranks. 647 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 6: But I don't I don't think he's going to be 648 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 6: the reason, at least if Indiana and Kurt Signetty have 649 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 6: their way. 650 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,479 Speaker 2: He is not the reason why they win or lose 651 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 2: this game. He's just steady ship, keep. 652 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 6: The keep the ship afloat hand, the ball off to 653 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 6: what I think is a very above average Indiana run game. 654 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,800 Speaker 6: Their offensive line, you don't think of trenches with Indiana. 655 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 6: They are a really good offensive line, one of the 656 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 6: best in college football in terms of the sack ratio. 657 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 6: Now maybe that's because of how slick their design is 658 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 6: on offense, but this is a tough This is a 659 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 6: tough offense to defend. Kurt Signetty, he wins Google him, 660 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 6: and yeah, I don't know if I I don't know 661 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 6: if I love this spot for Indiana because of all 662 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,479 Speaker 6: the hoopla that you mentioned, Brian, But I don't think 663 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 6: Washington's a very good football team, so I would not 664 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 6: expect them to come in to Bloomington to win this game. 665 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 2: But I guess crazier things have happened. 666 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, And hey man, when you get the physicality 667 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 4: advantage right there, like running the football for IU and 668 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 4: not being able to stop the run for Washington, that's 669 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 4: a great way. That's like a hype destroyer, you know 670 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 4: what I mean that in a good sense for IU. Right, 671 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 4: if you've got that to lean on, sometimes the hype 672 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 4: gets the best of you. There's all this Hooplather's seven 673 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 4: or zero? 674 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 2: What was it? 675 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 4: Rat poison that Nick Saban used to say, Like you start, 676 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 4: you know, believing all the hype. If you can just 677 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 4: physically whoop your opponent, that has a great way of 678 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 4: negating the hype and that could really help by you today. 679 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 4: All right, we've got Rich Ornberger Penn State, All American. 680 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 4: We've got Jared Smith FSR betting analyst.

I didn't go there. 702 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,399 Speaker 2: I didn't go there, but I'm worried about the game. 703 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 6: We could talk about it later during our therapy session, 704 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 6: but I did not put Wisconsin money line. 705 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 2: In the parlay. I did put BYU moneyline in the parlor. 706 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 2: We did not talk about this game off the top. 707 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 2: Let's talk about it now. 708 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 6: BYU undefeated, top fifteen team going to UCF today was 709 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 6: under five hundred, and guess who is favored? 710 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: Not the undefeated team. 711 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 6: Kind of makes you scratch your head. I just I 712 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 6: look at this game and I just see a lot 713 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 6: of variants. And that's why I'm taking the dog. I mean, 714 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,240 Speaker 6: I know U see F runs it really well. By 715 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 6: you can stop the run really well. And everything about 716 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 6: this game is saying, oh BYU there. You know, you know, 717 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,439 Speaker 6: travel and going across time zones, and this is that. Guys, 718 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 6: they're like twenty five year old like men going on 719 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 6: Mormon missions. 720 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 2: Like you think they're worried about traveling across the country, 721 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 2: I'm not. 722 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,240 Speaker 6: They're an experienced team. They arrived in Florida day early. 723 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 6: I like the quarterback. I'm a little bit concerned about 724 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 6: UCF's boom or bust offense. That's why we're going BYU 725 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 6: on the money line here as a short dog. These 726 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 6: two are much bigger underdogs, and that's that's why we're 727 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 6: gonna get this parlay up to a pretty reasonable number here. 728 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 6: I'm gonna think Georgia State on the money line against 729 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 6: app State. Another high variance game, both teams coming off 730 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 6: long rest. Georgia State's about a touchdown dog here. App 731 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 6: State hasn't played in two weeks. Georgia State played last Thursday. 732 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 6: But this is the reason that I like, and it's 733 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 6: kind of going against the emotion of it. This is 734 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 6: app State's first home game since the hurricane. 735 00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 2: I think there's just. 736 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 6: A lot of distractions going on homecoming and all the 737 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 6: things that are going to be happening pre game. And 738 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 6: I think Georgia State, they've played a couple of tough 739 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 6: games over the last couple of weeks. 740 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 2: I think they're ready for this challenge. 741 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 6: I don't think App State is, so I'll take Georgia 742 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 6: State on the money line. Finally, another high variance game 743 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 6: between two bad teams. 744 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 2: We like dogs in those spots. 745 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 6: Temple at ECU, we are fading the pirates after the 746 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 6: firing of Mike Houston. 747 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 2: Listen, both these teams are bad. I'm not gonna get 748 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 2: on a high horse and say how good Temple is, but. 749 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 6: I get look at look at you see his last 750 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 6: two games They've lost one hundred and fifty two. 751 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 2: To Army and Charlotte. Now I know Army is good, 752 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 2: Charlotte's not. Temple's coming off a ten point win against Tulsa. 753 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 6: They've held their own against Yukon, who stinks slightly less 754 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,280 Speaker 6: than Tulsa, but overall two bad teams. 755 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:45,919 Speaker 2: We like the dog. 756 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 6: Same thing with Georgia State. We like the dog against 757 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 6: Apps State and the fade everyone who thinks this game 758 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 6: is a stinky line. Play of the week BYU on 759 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 6: the money line keeps their undefeated season alive against UCF. 760 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 2: Twenty three to one. O this Barlo b Yu Georgia 761 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 2: State Temple, who ruins it? 762 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 3: Man? 763 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 2: I know everyone can ruin this. Anybody could ruin it. 764 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 5: I mean the nights they're looking for revenge after a 765 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 5: really tough loss against Iowa State, right, I mean it's possible. 766 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 4: I think this cash is with these you know, let's 767 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 4: go there? You coming up next? Will the dog be 768 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 4: barking again? 769 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 2: Oh? What is going on? 770 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 4: We are two hours away from kickoff here and we've 771 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 4: got some tasty matchups five ranked versus ranked How about 772 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 4: we dive into this Texas v. Vanderbilt matchup huh. And 773 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 4: you know what's crazy to me, guys, is how quickly 774 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 4: things can change in college football. Think about heading into 775 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 4: last week's game when Texas was hosting Georgia. Texas was 776 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 4: the number one team. Texas had all the hype, all 777 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 4: the hooplah and Georgia they were the team facing their 778 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 4: second loss. Instead, Georgia wins the game and now they're 779 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 4: the number two team in the country. Georgia has two 780 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 4: first place votes in the AP poll. Meanwhile, Texas, they 781 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 4: dropped the game last week, they fall down to number five, 782 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 4: and it's funny to see them facing Vanderbilt where Alabama 783 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 4: lost earlier. And if Texas drops their second game and 784 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,280 Speaker 4: one of them is to Vanderbilt, all of a sudden, 785 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 4: we're like, are they gonna sneak into the playoff? 786 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 2: Now? 787 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 4: They're healthy favorites. They're favored by seventeen and a half 788 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 4: right now on BETMGM. So it would take an Alabama 789 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 4: like upset for Vandy to pull this one out. But 790 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 4: the point is how quickly things can change. And what 791 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 4: looked like a NonStop, an unstoppable machine for the Longhorns 792 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,959 Speaker 4: that showed it is stoppable, at least for one week 793 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 4: going up against the Dogs last. 794 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 5: Week, Yeah, there are some flaws and maybe unlucky is 795 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:16,320 Speaker 5: a better way to describe it, because injuries are really 796 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 5: the focus here. Quinn Ewers didn't look quite the same 797 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 5: prior to the injury. Now on the other side in 798 00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 5: your injury, the abdominal strain. So we'll see where we're 799 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 5: at with that storyline. And a lot of people are 800 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 5: gonna be concentrating on how Texas responds after its loss 801 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 5: against Georgia, but it's important to realize what Vanderbilt has 802 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 5: done so far this season. I mean, you look at 803 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 5: the Commodoores. This is their first RAND team in over 804 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 5: a decade since James Franklin was. 805 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 3: On the sideline for Vandy. 806 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 5: You look at the things that they do really well, 807 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 5: and it's gonna. 808 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 3: Be strength on strength. 809 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,720 Speaker 5: And I'll explain it from Texas's standpoint in a second, 810 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:01,800 Speaker 5: But the Commodores are really good in late down situations 811 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 5: and it's because of their quarterback, Diego Pavia. He is 812 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 5: a magician on third and fourth down. When there's a 813 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:13,720 Speaker 5: gotta have a play, he makes the play. He's great 814 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 5: with his legs, he's great with his arms. He's made 815 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,280 Speaker 5: some big time throws in those moments throughout the season 816 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 5: for Vandy, and so as a result, they've been able 817 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 5: to extend drives. Their only two losses have came in 818 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 5: games where they didn't win the time of possession. Their 819 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 5: five wins they won time of possession. So it really 820 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 5: comes down to their quarterback bailing them out in those 821 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 5: incredibly critical situations. And he does it on long yardage 822 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:48,280 Speaker 5: orge short yarded situations in those crucial third and fourth downs. However, 823 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 5: I mentioned its strength on strength. Texas really really good 824 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 5: on third and fourth down. In fact, there's only one 825 00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 5: team who's better than them so far this season, and 826 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:01,399 Speaker 5: that's Notre Dame. 827 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 2: So it's strength on strength. Can't wait to watch this game. 828 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 5: Uh, you got Quinne, you were trying to get back 829 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 5: off the you know, the injury and look like himself. 830 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 5: This is gonna be a fascinating game to take a 831 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 5: look at. And I think we'll know early if it's 832 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 5: gonna be a dogfight or if it's gonna be a 833 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 5: dominant performance by what we consider, you know, a nationally 834 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 5: dominant team. It's it's gonna be a fascinating game to 835 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 5: watch though. 836 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, what's the Dennis green quote, they are who we 837 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 6: thought they were. Maybe Texas isn't who we thought they were. 838 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 2: Hmmm that. 839 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 6: I think that was my biggest takeaway from last week 840 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 6: is we thought they were about the hook. 841 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 2: Love love that line. 842 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 6: So maybe maybe Texas's schedule Colorado State, Utsa, Monroe, Mississippi State, Oklahoma, Michigan. Yeah, 843 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 6: maybe not Murderer's Row. And then they may Georgia and 844 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 6: it's just you gotta give Kirby Smart a lot of credit. 845 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 6: He was very aggressive defensively in that game. I did 846 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,280 Speaker 6: not expect Georgia to go into Austin and houle Texas 847 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 6: to the teams in points. I love der analysis on 848 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,760 Speaker 6: the Vandy offense Rich That's where I started my prep 849 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 6: on this game. Tim Beck, the OC for Vandy's done 850 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 6: an incredible job. Jerry Kill consultant might have heard that name. 851 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 6: Legendary coach all over the all over the map. 852 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: I think New Mexico State was his last stop. But 853 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 2: they've completely remodeled this offense. 854 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 6: Their Their goal with this offense is to drag you 855 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,720 Speaker 6: through the mud because they don't have these like elite 856 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:43,720 Speaker 6: weapons on the outside. They want a Nicolindamya drag you down, 857 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,359 Speaker 6: bring you into the river and drown you like that's 858 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 6: their goal. It's an intermediate passing game. Povey has got 859 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 6: this moxie to him where he's a really clutch quarterback. 860 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 6: He's got a passing grade over ninety on third and 861 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 6: fourth downs. You mentioned that those late down matchups are 862 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 6: going to be obviously crucial in this game. He also 863 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 6: leads a team in rushing, so he is the guy. 864 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 6: They do have one weapon on the outside. I'd call 865 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 6: him more of an in line guy. The tight end 866 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 6: Stours is an absolute rock star. Texas defense was good 867 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 6: last week against Georgia. Texas defense is off the problem 868 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 6: they lost to that game. They all Georgia on are 869 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 6: three hundred total yard, but they were put in some 870 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 6: bad spots by the offense and the special teams. I 871 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 6: don't think Texas's counting stats on defense are as good 872 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,879 Speaker 6: as what we're seeing right like number one in yards 873 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 6: per playing yards per game. I don't think they're the 874 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 6: number one defense in college football. I think they're a 875 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:35,320 Speaker 6: very good defense. Two issues this week, Andrew mccooba starting 876 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 6: safety out he got hurt in the game. He's probably 877 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,720 Speaker 6: was gonna be the guy that was gonna guard Stowers. 878 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 6: They also have another starting safety, Derek Williams, who got 879 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 6: hurt versus Oklahoma, So they're down two guys in the secondary, 880 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 6: two guys. 881 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 2: Probably that with defense. 882 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 6: Tours Texas offense another story like like Sark told us 883 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,280 Speaker 6: in the offseason, he was not gonna play arch Manning 884 00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 6: unless Youwers got hurt. 885 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:55,879 Speaker 2: What did he do last week? 886 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 6: He benched Jewers for arch Manning, opening up a whole 887 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 6: can of worm. I don't know what to make of 888 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,720 Speaker 6: the Texas offense, guys. I have no idea what yours 889 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,800 Speaker 6: as headspace is, where the locker room is on yours 890 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 6: compared to arch. I think start kind kind of screwed 891 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 6: the pooch last week, unless yours really is hurt. 892 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 2: But if it was just a. 893 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 6: Productivity benching, this is going to be an interesting matchup 894 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 6: on Texas for offense. 895 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 4: You know what's funny to me is when we say, hey, 896 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 4: this team, they played down to the level of their competition. 897 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 4: Normally it's a top team like Texas. You know, it's 898 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 4: a top five team, and maybe they sleep walk through 899 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 4: their lesser matchups. It's been Vanderbilt this year, right, So 900 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,720 Speaker 4: Vandy they lost to Georgia State. They weren't impressive last 901 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 4: week against Ball State, but good news Vandy fans for 902 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,919 Speaker 4: a monster game against Texas today. What they have done 903 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 4: in their bigger matchups? Will they beat number one Alabama? 904 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 4: They beat Virginia Tech. Vanderbilt played number six Missouri at 905 00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 4: the time, very tough on the road, lost by a 906 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 4: field goal. So I just think it's funny. We're like 907 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 4: I have Vandy. They played down to the level of 908 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 4: their competition. We're used to Vandy being as down as 909 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 4: it gets, but that's what we've seen. But hey man, 910 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 4: they've gotten up. They've been giant killers so far. And 911 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,920 Speaker 4: that's the thing. It's one thing to and I'm not 912 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,359 Speaker 4: taking credit away, it's one thing to sneak up on 913 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 4: someone to do it now after beating Alabama like Texas 914 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 4: not sleepwalking through this game at all, especially after a loss. 915 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 4: So it's going to make life a lot more difficult 916 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 4: for Vanderbilt today. 917 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 5: So I've watched a lot of Texas like everybody else. 918 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 5: And when you look at yours against Oklahoma and a 919 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 5: win probably one of his worst performances of the year, 920 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,919 Speaker 5: you know, you look at the loss to Georgia, I mean, 921 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 5: that may have been one of the worst games of 922 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 5: his career. And then I want to get inside the 923 00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 5: mentality of an injured player, especially one in the situa 924 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,239 Speaker 5: suation that quinni Ors is in. So not only are 925 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:08,400 Speaker 5: you hurt and your team needs you desperately to rise 926 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 5: to the challenge of, you know, beating this scrappy team 927 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:16,360 Speaker 5: who's really come out of nowhere in the new conference 928 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 5: that you just joined. You gotta play exceptionally well, and 929 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 5: you're playing hurt. So you're looking at this situation through 930 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 5: the eyes of a guy who's like, I can do it, 931 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 5: but you know, whatever it is, my ribs or this 932 00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 5: ab isn't quite healed, and I'm trying to force things 933 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 5: because guess what, he has the best backup quarterback in 934 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 5: college football breathing down his neck in arch Manning. That 935 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 5: puts you in a really tough spot mentally. So you're 936 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,360 Speaker 5: thinking to yourself, Man, I'm holding on for dear life anyway, 937 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 5: because everybody wants to see this legacy, this prodigal sun 938 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 5: take over, and I'm trying to keep this guy away. 939 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, I have this injury 940 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 2: to deal with too. 941 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you know, some of the turnover worthy 942 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 5: throws that he's had could be a result of him, 943 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 5: you know, either a trying to do too much and 944 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 5: try to do too much, hurt to keep the backup 945 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 5: off the field, or it's b the injury is worse 946 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,920 Speaker 5: than we thought it was. He rushed back to the 947 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 5: field because he realizes he's about to get wally pipped 948 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 5: and it's not the best thing for Texas because he's 949 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 5: not healthy enough to do it yet and he may 950 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:36,280 Speaker 5: get exposed against Vandy. So that is something to watch. 951 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 5: See how comfortable Quinn Eewers looks in the first half 952 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 5: of this game. 953 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 3: It's gonna tell you a lot about how this game 954 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 3: is gonna go. 955 00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:45,400 Speaker 2: Totally agree. 956 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 6: Also, because of the style that Vandy plays, the margin 957 00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 6: for err on offense is very thin for Texas. Again, 958 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 6: we to analyze Texas's offense in this game, you've got 959 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 6: to look to Vandy's offense, which sounds weird, but if 960 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 6: Texas like they might only get fifty offensive plays in 961 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 6: this game. Alabama, Kentucky, and ball State ran less than 962 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:14,399 Speaker 6: fifty offensive plays against Vandy because they just they run 963 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 6: a death pain slow tempo like outside the top one 964 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 6: thirty in tempo, and they run these intermediate everything's intermediate 965 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,760 Speaker 6: and short and runs. They don't take the high variant 966 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 6: shots down the field. 967 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 2: Again. 968 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,279 Speaker 6: They want to drag you through the mud and make 969 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 6: you sweat. That is their offensive goal because they don't 970 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 6: have those elite weapons on the outside like Texas does. 971 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 6: Even though Isaiah Bond's not playing in this game, which 972 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 6: is a big miss for the Longhorns, I feel like 973 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 6: there is and I feel like there is a chance 974 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 6: that Vanny could win this game. 975 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 2: I honestly do believe that. 976 00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:49,840 Speaker 6: I don't think they're going to win the game, but 977 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 6: this spread's probably too high, and especially if what Rich 978 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 6: is alluding to, which is a very valid point, there 979 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 6: is a chance that Youers saw the writing on the wall, 980 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 6: rushed back. Then he came back last week against Georgia's 981 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,239 Speaker 6: defense and said, oh I'm not ready for this, and 982 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:10,800 Speaker 6: then you Youwers goes to the bench, arch Manning comes in. Disaster, 983 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,719 Speaker 6: Youers goes back onto the field. More disaster. Like the 984 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 6: vibes right now are not strong. Texas really needs to 985 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 6: do two things in this game. They need to get 986 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,799 Speaker 6: off the field on third downs against Vandy's offense, because 987 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,959 Speaker 6: if you don't, the morale level drops. If they're picking 988 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,359 Speaker 6: up third and threes, third and fours every single drive, 989 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 6: it's just you're just like, what do you do? Like, 990 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 6: you know, it's like when you're watching the game and 991 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 6: you're just like, you know, you want to get out 992 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 6: there and wring someone's neck. They can't turn it over too, 993 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 6: because Texas actually has been pretty good in the turnover marchin, 994 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:46,440 Speaker 6: but they still struggled last week against Georgia. I I 995 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 6: really want to bet Vandy in this game. 996 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 2: I might get there. I just I don't know. 997 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 6: Something about betting on Vandy against the good team scares me, 998 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 6: even though they've had good results this year. 999 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 4: All right, that's Jared Smith FSR betting analyst Rich Ornberger 1000 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 4: with US Penn State All American.

Good 1022 00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 4: morning to you, seamous. Okay, I'm curious what would be 1023 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:22,399 Speaker 4: a need or two or three for BETMGM today. Huh 1024 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 4: if you could just knock them out in order, what 1025 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,240 Speaker 4: would you like to see happen? 1026 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 9: Hey, guy, it's great to be back. I think, first 1027 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 9: and foremost, I think one of our biggest needs is 1028 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 9: gonna be the Washington Huskies plus five and a half, 1029 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 9: even despite Rourke not playing for Indiana today, lots of 1030 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,359 Speaker 9: believers in this Hoosier team. Game Day is there, so 1031 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 9: they've gotten a ton of action so far. So we're 1032 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,400 Speaker 9: gonna need Washington. They haven't really looked at that. I 1033 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,440 Speaker 9: think they've been pretty unlucky in my opinion, a couple 1034 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:54,839 Speaker 9: games of just special teams and turnovers. But we're gonna 1035 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 9: need them. And then you know, there's some people taking 1036 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 9: some shots on these underdogs we probably could use with 1037 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 9: Notre Dame winning in Ohio State not getting upset. But 1038 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:06,360 Speaker 9: in terms of spreads, Nebraska plus twenty six and a 1039 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 9: half is definitely gonna be need for US as well. 1040 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 9: So I'd say in terms of realistic needs on the spread, 1041 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 9: I'd go Washington and Nebraska. 1042 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, that doesn't surprise me at all. What are you 1043 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 2: seeing on this byu UCF game. 1044 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 6: I think this is the most interesting game of the 1045 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,840 Speaker 6: week from a betting standpoint, by US undefeated catching points 1046 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:25,760 Speaker 6: against under five hundred. 1047 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 9: You see of Yeah, usually it feels like the kiss 1048 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 9: of death for a ranked team this late in the season, 1049 00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 9: especially an undefeated one when they travel to an unranked 1050 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 9: foe and being an underdog in that game. So I 1051 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 9: think a lot of people are backing both sides. Theres 1052 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 9: some people who still believe in the Uyu, but definitely 1053 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,719 Speaker 9: some people who are tuned into the betting odds who 1054 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:46,840 Speaker 9: are taking taking a shot with UCF here. 1055 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 5: How many believers in Vanderbilt? They've been kind of a 1056 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 5: house of horrors for marquee teams plus seventeen as it stands, 1057 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,799 Speaker 5: maybe plus seventeen and a half at BETMGM, what say 1058 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 5: you can? Can the Commodorees pull it off? 1059 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 6: Can? 1060 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,480 Speaker 2: Can? Can they keep it close with the Longhorns? 1061 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, we open this at nineteen and a half and 1062 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 9: the spreads down to seventeen and a half juice towards Vanderbilt. 1063 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 9: So the sharp money has definitely been on the Commodore's today, 1064 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:18,799 Speaker 9: and you're right, it is a house of worters this year. 1065 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 9: It would be crazy to see if they can take 1066 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 9: another scalp. But yeah, that's the Sharks are definitely on 1067 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:24,960 Speaker 9: Vandy today. 1068 00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 4: How about living up to the hype? Shamus and just 1069 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:30,879 Speaker 4: In terms of the point spread. If you think about 1070 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,640 Speaker 4: a team you mentioned Indiana, do you think that they're 1071 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:37,360 Speaker 4: going to live up to the hype and cover the spread? 1072 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 4: A team like Navy, do you think they're going to 1073 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 4: live up to the hype and at least cover the 1074 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,680 Speaker 4: number today against Notre Dame or do you think those 1075 00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 4: teams are just that they're a bunch of hype. What 1076 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 4: do you think from a betting standpoint with those squads today? 1077 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 9: Indiana is a tough team to gauge. I think this 1078 00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:56,800 Speaker 9: week just because Wark is out, I think the backup 1079 00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,399 Speaker 9: is capable. He can It isn't good enough to beat 1080 00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 9: this Washington the team. But I'm a little uneasy about 1081 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:04,799 Speaker 9: work not playing. But these Signetti teams, they just play 1082 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,840 Speaker 9: so hard it doesn't matter who the quarterback is. And Navy, 1083 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 9: you get this is a good Notre Dame team. They're 1084 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 9: really banged up though, this Notre Dame team. They're playing 1085 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 9: in met life. Unfortunately, nobody in New Jersey's allowed to 1086 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 9: bet on the game to the state balls. 1087 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 2: But I think this. 1088 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 9: Navy team is a real deal. Even if they lose it, 1089 00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:24,160 Speaker 9: I think they can cover the number easy, especially with 1090 00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 9: the way they push the tempo, So yeah, it's a 1091 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 9: weird one today. I wouldn't take any scratches away from 1092 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 9: either side if they get upset today, honestly or not 1093 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 9: upset in Navy's case. 1094 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 6: There's two games in the SEC that I'm curious about. 1095 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 6: One of them, I'm guessing it's more injury related. The 1096 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 6: Brady Cook News is tilting this Alabama line back and 1097 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 6: forth with Missouri. I still like Bama either way, but 1098 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 6: the more intriguing game is LSU, A and M. And 1099 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 6: you know, you get that number coming down off of 1100 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 6: three LSU. I think LSU is a dog, even though 1101 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 6: it's not a big dog. Makes a little sense to me. 1102 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 6: What does the market say about But did the last 1103 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 6: two undefeated teams in the SEC conference just like we 1104 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 6: expected A and M and LSU? 1105 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, LSU. The Sharps definitely bet that we were hanging 1106 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 9: a flat three for a while and then Sharpmanny came 1107 00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 9: in and pushed us all the way down to one. 1108 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 9: It's practically a pick them now. So there's definitely some 1109 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 9: interest from the Sharps on LSU this Alan Missouri game. Yeah, 1110 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 9: there is the Cook News. I still probably would have 1111 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 9: had Bama by thirteen and a half. I think even 1112 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,320 Speaker 9: if Cook played just kind of over this Missoo team 1113 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 9: right now, and it seems like a lot of betters 1114 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 9: are I think by game time will probably end up 1115 00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 9: needing Missouri to cover. But right now, I mean it is. 1116 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:39,920 Speaker 9: It is a little fifty to fifty. It's not necessarily 1117 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,240 Speaker 9: a need yet. 1118 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 5: Cal is a ten and a half point favorite over 1119 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 5: the Beavers Oregon State former PAC twelve combatants now playing 1120 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:49,560 Speaker 5: in different conferences. 1121 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:51,600 Speaker 2: I like Cal in this spot. 1122 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 3: Talk me out of it or talk me into it. 1123 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 9: I would tend to agree. The sharps tend to agree. 1124 00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 9: This is open at eight and a half and it's 1125 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 9: in bet through ten up to ten and a half. 1126 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,959 Speaker 9: Is a this county. You have the hype this year, 1127 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:07,680 Speaker 9: they're back at home. I think they can get it 1128 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 9: done again, so I won't be talking out of it. 1129 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:21,520 Speaker 4: Double down come one. Yeah, you know, Seamus, I never 1130 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 4: thought of it like this with you mentioning the Notre 1131 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 4: Dame game is in New Jersey and the folks there 1132 00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 4: can't bet on this game. I never thought of it 1133 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:34,760 Speaker 4: from like a BEDMGM standpoint, where all these neutral site 1134 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 4: games for Notre Dame. If you're like, hey, where's the 1135 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 4: game San Antonio, Vegas or whatever? New Jersey? Oh No, Like, 1136 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 4: think about all of that money, the handle that you 1137 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,919 Speaker 4: lose out on with the game being a neutral site 1138 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 4: game in Jersey. I never really even considered. 1139 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 9: That I am not alone in New Jersey with being 1140 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 9: a nerd Am fan.

Both teams lost their first game, and both 1235 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 4: teams have won six games in a row, and it 1236 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 4: feels like most people don't care. 1237 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 2: It's worth wild right. 1238 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 4: Like LSU lost the opener to opener to usc Texas 1239 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:14,000 Speaker 4: A and M lost its opener against Notre Dame, and 1240 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 4: I think a lot of people that aren't fans of 1241 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 4: those teams are just kind of like looked elsewhere and 1242 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, you blink and we're midway through 1243 01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 4: the season and they're both in the top fifteen facing 1244 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:29,080 Speaker 4: off against each other in primetime tonight. Intriguing matchup. There's 1245 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:32,280 Speaker 4: been some money coming in throughout the week on the Aggies, 1246 01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:36,240 Speaker 4: who are a slight favorite at home, I should say, 1247 01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:38,960 Speaker 4: coming in on LSU. It's the opposite. There's been money 1248 01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:41,840 Speaker 4: on LSUS, has been bet down throughout the week. So 1249 01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 4: just a one point favorite A and M at home 1250 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:49,400 Speaker 4: in this one. And listen, LSU. We know about Texas 1251 01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:51,680 Speaker 4: A and M's defense, right, I think they get a 1252 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:55,920 Speaker 4: lot more praise defensively, But LSU the last four games 1253 01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:58,600 Speaker 4: they've been getting after it good havoc rate. Love that 1254 01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:05,640 Speaker 4: stat you know EFLs ffs your tackles for loss, forced fumbles, 1255 01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:09,280 Speaker 4: the passes defended. Divide that by the total play So 1256 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:12,919 Speaker 4: they're tenth nationally in havoc rate over the last four 1257 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:15,600 Speaker 4: games and been getting a lot of pressure on dropbacks. 1258 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 4: So this LSU defense has been better than it normally 1259 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 4: gets credit four, So that would obviously be on that'll 1260 01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:27,960 Speaker 4: be high on the priority list for LSU if they 1261 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 4: can keep it going against Texas A and M tonight. 1262 01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 5: You know, before you know, we get too far down 1263 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,919 Speaker 5: the road of breaking down the game, just to set 1264 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 5: the scene, this is gonna be a primetime slot tonight. 1265 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:42,560 Speaker 5: You know, we have a seven thirty kickoff on the 1266 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:45,520 Speaker 5: East Coast. Is gonna be four to thirty out here, 1267 01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 5: And I realize it's not a week weekday. But you 1268 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,360 Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like TVs are going to be 1269 01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:53,800 Speaker 5: tuned into this all across the Southeastern Conference states, especially 1270 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 5: because people who pay attention to that conference know how 1271 01:06:56,840 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 5: important this is to determine who could potentially be taking 1272 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,560 Speaker 5: home the conference crown, and that is that is going 1273 01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 5: to that is going to determine a playoff slot. So 1274 01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:12,960 Speaker 5: you're talking about an entirely important game here again in 1275 01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:17,040 Speaker 5: the SEC. Now, in terms of the matchups, I think 1276 01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 5: the two matchups to really look at and break down 1277 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 5: and discuss is LSU's offensive line against A and m's 1278 01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 5: defensive line, their whole front, but specifically their defensive line. 1279 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 5: We'll see if LSU can hold up against a very 1280 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,560 Speaker 5: stout group up front for A and M. And then 1281 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:41,920 Speaker 5: LSU is better on their pass coverage, but they're facing. 1282 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 2: A very perplexing quarterback for A and M. So those 1283 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 2: are the two matchups. 1284 01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,840 Speaker 5: You know, how A and M can attack the deep 1285 01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,200 Speaker 5: part of the field, and how they can attack the 1286 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 5: LSU's pass coverage and can ls use offensive line protect 1287 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,400 Speaker 5: and open up run lanes against a very good group 1288 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 5: defensive for A and M. 1289 01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I like this game a lot. There's two matchups 1290 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:06,080 Speaker 6: that I really like in this game. First of all, 1291 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 6: there is a little bit of continuity, or I guess 1292 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,600 Speaker 6: I should say familiarity with the coaches. 1293 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,320 Speaker 2: Elko was Kelly's DC at Notre Dame for one year. 1294 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 6: Brian, I'm sure you remember that season twenty seventeen, one 1295 01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:19,639 Speaker 6: of the Ian book years. 1296 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:22,480 Speaker 2: So again, not a lot of familiarity. 1297 01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:26,280 Speaker 6: But anytime, especially when it's offense defense, right like Elko 1298 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 6: defensive coach, Brian Kelly offensive coach, Like anytime, those are 1299 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,680 Speaker 6: the masterminds, and they've had, you know, experience with each 1300 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:33,360 Speaker 6: other in the past. 1301 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 2: They know each other well. It's always a chess match. 1302 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:39,000 Speaker 6: The best on bet, like this might be the best 1303 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,080 Speaker 6: positional group matchup we get the entire season in college football. 1304 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:48,759 Speaker 6: LSU's O line A and M's D line best on best. 1305 01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:52,360 Speaker 6: I really like the havoc. You love that stat Brian. 1306 01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 6: I love that statue that Elko creates. They swarm, They're 1307 01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,200 Speaker 6: an aggressive unit. Recently, they've been even more great of 1308 01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:02,280 Speaker 6: the last couple of weeks, almost like they're ramping up 1309 01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 6: the havoc levels as we go out go throughout the season. 1310 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 6: LSU's offensive line, the strength is on the left side, 1311 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:10,960 Speaker 6: Campbell and Dellinger. 1312 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:13,320 Speaker 2: We'll see how we'll go schemes it. 1313 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:15,720 Speaker 6: But on the right side, you've got Emory Jones, the 1314 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:18,360 Speaker 6: right tackle, who's been like a turnstile. Twelve pressures allowed 1315 01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:20,439 Speaker 6: the last two games against Ole Miss in Arkansas. So 1316 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,679 Speaker 6: if we do see the stunt, like if you're watching 1317 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 6: this game and it's LSU offense, A and M defense, 1318 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:29,000 Speaker 6: watch the right side of the LSU offensive line. 1319 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:30,280 Speaker 2: Is LSU running it in that. 1320 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,599 Speaker 6: Direction, because that's probably where the stunts and the pressure 1321 01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:35,599 Speaker 6: is gonna come from. They're not gonna they're gonna stay 1322 01:09:35,600 --> 01:09:37,960 Speaker 6: away from Campbell and Deliger. I mean, that's about as 1323 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:38,599 Speaker 6: good as it gets. 1324 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 2: On the left side. 1325 01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,320 Speaker 6: That's where you're gonna see a lot of LZ's offense 1326 01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:45,720 Speaker 6: I think originate from. It's gotta be quick hitters. It's 1327 01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:49,080 Speaker 6: gotta be screens and draws right. That's how you suck 1328 01:09:49,160 --> 01:09:51,640 Speaker 6: in that pressure, and then A and M could be 1329 01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 6: a little bit exposed sometimes when you're a little bit 1330 01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:57,720 Speaker 6: too havocy, when you go to upfield, you leave those 1331 01:09:57,840 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 6: open lander. 1332 01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,280 Speaker 4: I just made that word up on the fly, havocy. 1333 01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 6: I'm curious if the tight end Mason Taylor, who's a 1334 01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,960 Speaker 6: stud for LSU, their slot guy Aaron Anderson, Like, those 1335 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 6: are the guys to look for in this game. Durham 1336 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:12,200 Speaker 6: the running back who's more of a I'll call him 1337 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 6: like a scatback, like a Brian Westbrook type, is how 1338 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 6: I would describe the freshman Kayden Durham for LSU. 1339 01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 2: Like that's how LSU is gonna get their offense going 1340 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:21,519 Speaker 2: in this game. Fan M's offense. 1341 01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:25,760 Speaker 6: Connor Wegman highs are very high, the lows are very low. 1342 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 6: Look great against Missouri. Two picks last week against the 1343 01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 6: dregs of the kegs Mississippi State. I don't know what 1344 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 6: Connor Wegman we're gonna get. That's where the variance comes 1345 01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:37,040 Speaker 6: in this game. If Connor Wegman plays well, man and 1346 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 6: I'm probably. 1347 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:40,000 Speaker 2: Can win this game. If not, I think the sharp 1348 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 2: money's right with LSU. 1349 01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:45,040 Speaker 4: LSU is one of those teams where they kind of 1350 01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:47,559 Speaker 4: just I think of I don't know why this popped 1351 01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:49,680 Speaker 4: through my head, Maybe because my girlfriend was watching a 1352 01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,080 Speaker 4: little of this Scooby Doo movie last night. You know, 1353 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:54,360 Speaker 4: I think of think of a bloodhound. Do you think 1354 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 4: of us as bloodhounds? And we're sniffing, Like we're just 1355 01:10:57,800 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 4: sniffing all around trying to pick something up right, and 1356 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:05,760 Speaker 4: something throws us off. That's sort of lsu like put 1357 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:09,320 Speaker 4: the loss. Well, the first game of the season, losing 1358 01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 4: to USC, so that stays in our mind. And then 1359 01:11:13,760 --> 01:11:16,599 Speaker 4: well they beat South Carolina, but it's a comeback when 1360 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:20,639 Speaker 4: they beat Ole Miss. That's a close you know, nail 1361 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:24,320 Speaker 4: bier in overtime that easily could have gone against them, 1362 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:28,280 Speaker 4: and you're kind of like, Okay, they're vulnerable at ERA 1363 01:11:28,760 --> 01:11:31,600 Speaker 4: at Arkansas and they just beat the breaks off of 1364 01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:34,680 Speaker 4: Arkansas last week. You know, it's like one of those 1365 01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:37,880 Speaker 4: teams that they just throw you off the scent a 1366 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:42,120 Speaker 4: little bit. So LS we see their strengths, we see 1367 01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:45,439 Speaker 4: their weaknesses. But from week to week, even though they've 1368 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:48,960 Speaker 4: won six straight, it hasn't been one of these where 1369 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 4: each week you're feeling more and more stronger about this team. 1370 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 4: It's not the case one week they look good, the 1371 01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:58,120 Speaker 4: other week they look vulnerable. But they've won six straight 1372 01:11:58,160 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 4: in any event, and this. 1373 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:03,600 Speaker 5: Is the complicated case of how to handle a perplexing 1374 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:07,200 Speaker 5: as I put a quarterback as Connor Wegman for the 1375 01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 5: A and m Aggies, you look at what he's done 1376 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,840 Speaker 5: over the course of the season, and if I were 1377 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 5: to put a single sentence on him, he's. 1378 01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 2: Just more comfortable in the havoc than he is outside 1379 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:25,479 Speaker 2: of it. 1380 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:29,719 Speaker 5: If you look at his production when he's under pressure, 1381 01:12:30,160 --> 01:12:35,919 Speaker 5: he's actually got pretty good numbers. He's think Think Patrick Mahomes. 1382 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 5: Think Patrick Mahomes. Now, I'm not comparing the talent. I'm 1383 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:41,560 Speaker 5: not comparing the skill set. I'm not making that comparison. 1384 01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 5: But what in defenses in the NFL figure out about 1385 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes. If you play coverage against Mahomes, if you 1386 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:53,200 Speaker 5: force him to nickel and dime you, eventually he's going 1387 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 5: to get bored. He's going to get tired of the 1388 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:57,960 Speaker 5: short passing game. He doesn't want to get stuck in 1389 01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 5: third and five constantly. He likes the thrill of the 1390 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 5: chase a little bit. He wants you to throw pressure 1391 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 5: his way. He wants the chess match, and when you 1392 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 5: force him to play ordinary, he starts to get complacent 1393 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:11,879 Speaker 5: and make mistakes. 1394 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:13,400 Speaker 3: Well, Wegman's kind of the same way. 1395 01:13:13,439 --> 01:13:15,639 Speaker 5: You play coverage against him, You give him a clean 1396 01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:20,360 Speaker 5: pocket and he struggles. You throw pressure at him, you 1397 01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:22,800 Speaker 5: flush him. He has to move his feet, he has 1398 01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 5: to evade the rush, he has to extend the play. 1399 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 5: All of a sudden, his rating skyrockets. So it's a 1400 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:33,880 Speaker 5: very odd situation for the Tigers. They're going into this 1401 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 5: super important game, as I mentioned before the scene setter, 1402 01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 5: this may determine who contends for the conference at the 1403 01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:45,280 Speaker 5: end of the year, and you're going against this confusing 1404 01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:50,160 Speaker 5: quarterback who presents himself as a talent, but really more 1405 01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:56,800 Speaker 5: talented when he's forced to improvise, And so it's a 1406 01:13:57,000 --> 01:14:01,240 Speaker 5: really really difficult situation to defend against for LSU. 1407 01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:04,000 Speaker 6: In this one, it's funny because I saw similar things 1408 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:07,320 Speaker 6: when I watched Legmand this year. And this might sound 1409 01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,640 Speaker 6: really harsh and mean, and he's not listening, so I 1410 01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:12,600 Speaker 6: feel okay about saying it, but there's probably some A 1411 01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:15,559 Speaker 6: and M fans listening. He seems like a low IQ quarterback. 1412 01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:19,439 Speaker 6: He seems like a guy that when he needs to 1413 01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 6: make the reads that are more complex, he kind of 1414 01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:28,160 Speaker 6: kind of puts his brain in a pretzel, right, Like, 1415 01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 6: you can't throw two. 1416 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 2: Picks against Mississippi State, No he can't, so it. 1417 01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 6: But then again, when you face Missouri, who by all 1418 01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:36,639 Speaker 6: accounts has a really good defense. 1419 01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:39,479 Speaker 2: It look like the world is on fire for you, 1420 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:41,160 Speaker 2: Like you're just you know, it's like the. 1421 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:44,680 Speaker 6: He on fire, like Marv Albercohl from an NBA jam, 1422 01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:49,280 Speaker 6: Like Missouri's defense is light years A had Misssippi State. 1423 01:14:49,360 --> 01:14:51,000 Speaker 6: Now the spot was bad, they jumped all over him, 1424 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,599 Speaker 6: Gamescript whatever. But this is a quarterback that I think 1425 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:58,240 Speaker 6: needs to be a little bit like they need to 1426 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:01,519 Speaker 6: simplify the offense for him. And you're right, maybe under 1427 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 6: pressure he doesn't have to think as much. He just 1428 01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:06,440 Speaker 6: reacts and that is where he's good. He's an athletic 1429 01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,599 Speaker 6: guy who's got a good arm, and he makes throws 1430 01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:10,880 Speaker 6: on the run that are hard to make. 1431 01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:11,800 Speaker 2: But when you have to. 1432 01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 6: Think through the defense, that's where he struggles. I like, 1433 01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:19,200 Speaker 6: I'll be honest, LSU's defense. I was down on them 1434 01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 6: earlier this year. They had a new DC, Blake Baker. 1435 01:15:22,280 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 2: Came over from a Zoo ironically enough, and now we're 1436 01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:27,440 Speaker 2: starting to see the improvement. 1437 01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 6: They've got two dudes on the edge. So Harold Perkins, 1438 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:32,400 Speaker 6: star linebacker, gonna be a first round pick. I heard 1439 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:34,680 Speaker 6: a couple weeks ago and everyone was like, including me, like, 1440 01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:36,639 Speaker 6: oh man, ls US defense about the fall off a cliff. 1441 01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:38,920 Speaker 6: They already were bad. Now you lose your best player. 1442 01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:42,120 Speaker 6: But maybe Perkins was like Jackie Moon and semi pro. 1443 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:45,320 Speaker 6: I'm gonna go Rover, coach, I'm going Rover and you know, 1444 01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 6: just kind of. 1445 01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:47,639 Speaker 2: Doing his own thing out there. And now you take 1446 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 2: him off the board. He's a very good player. 1447 01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:52,360 Speaker 6: But now the defense comes together a little bit more, 1448 01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 6: and you've got Swinson and Jones on the edge that 1449 01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:58,360 Speaker 6: are just studs. You've got this wit Weeks guy who's 1450 01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:01,400 Speaker 6: like a throwback linebacker from like the sixties in the middle, 1451 01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:03,479 Speaker 6: just making tackles all over the place. And you've got 1452 01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 6: a really good corner lockdown corners. Ay Alexander is one 1453 01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:08,400 Speaker 6: of the highest greateed corners in the country according to 1454 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 6: Pro Football Focus. He's been targeting eighteen times only about 1455 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 6: thirty two passing yards over the last few weeks. So 1456 01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:16,280 Speaker 6: I think this is a good defense, and I think 1457 01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:19,320 Speaker 6: they can throw some wrinkles at Wegman to make him 1458 01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:20,520 Speaker 6: a little bit confused. 1459 01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:22,280 Speaker 2: That's why I think you're. 1460 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:24,160 Speaker 6: Seeing the sharp money come in on LSU in this game, because, 1461 01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:26,879 Speaker 6: let's be honesty, on the other side, it's a stalemate. 1462 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:30,639 Speaker 4: We got Jared Smith, FSR betting analyst rich ron Berger, 1463 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,880 Speaker 4: Penn State, All American.

Jared will start with you. 1476 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 2: What do you like? 1477 01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:14,080 Speaker 9: Yeah? 1478 01:17:14,120 --> 01:17:17,080 Speaker 6: I like these Indiana Backs today. Tavian Jackson of course, 1479 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:19,879 Speaker 6: in for Curtis Rourke at quarterback. I think he's capable, 1480 01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:22,880 Speaker 6: but I think Indiana lean's on the running game. So 1481 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:25,240 Speaker 6: you get both the backs today. Let me make sure 1482 01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:27,320 Speaker 6: I got the numbers right. Ellison over fifty eight and 1483 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 6: a half over at bet MGM. Lofton over forty eight 1484 01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:32,639 Speaker 6: and a half over a bet egine. 1485 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:34,519 Speaker 2: Pick your poison. I don't really think it matters which one. 1486 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:36,240 Speaker 6: I maybe would put a half a unit on both 1487 01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,600 Speaker 6: because it's probably hard to decipher which one will be 1488 01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:42,040 Speaker 6: the lead guy today. Actually Ellison will likely be the 1489 01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:44,840 Speaker 6: lead guy. But but Lawton's been really good too, so 1490 01:17:45,160 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 6: I would put, you know, half a unit unit on 1491 01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:50,160 Speaker 6: both guys today, Ellison Lawton over rush yards against Washington. 1492 01:17:50,400 --> 01:17:53,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like the Lawton over. I'm with you on that. 1493 01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,120 Speaker 5: In fact, I'm gonna look to the opposite side of 1494 01:17:56,160 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 5: the field the other offense, the Washington Husky's running back 1495 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:03,960 Speaker 5: Jonah Coleman over his seventy three and a half rushing yards. 1496 01:18:04,240 --> 01:18:05,679 Speaker 2: How do you quiet down a crowd? 1497 01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 3: Keep the ball? 1498 01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 5: And I think that's what Washington's gonna do. Offensive efficiency 1499 01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 5: has been great. They've got a really accurate quarterback. But 1500 01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:16,919 Speaker 5: I think they're gonna try to own time of possession 1501 01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:19,800 Speaker 5: and play a little keepaway against the Hoosiers. So give 1502 01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:22,800 Speaker 5: me Jonah Coleman going over the seventy and three and 1503 01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 5: a half rushing yards. 1504 01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 4: That's all I'm wondering too. Rich is IU has the 1505 01:18:28,479 --> 01:18:32,240 Speaker 4: best rush defense so far? In the Big ten. But 1506 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:35,040 Speaker 4: how much of that is you're playing with the lead, 1507 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:37,759 Speaker 4: and how much of that is you're really good against 1508 01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:40,920 Speaker 4: the rush, you know? So I love that matchup against 1509 01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 4: Jonah Coleman in Washington's running game. Today, we shall see. 1510 01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:48,519 Speaker 4: I'm gonna look at Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden give 1511 01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 4: me over forty five and a half receiving yards. As 1512 01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:54,639 Speaker 4: Jared said a little bit earlier, no Isaiah Bond today, 1513 01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:59,719 Speaker 4: quinn Ewers he's gonna sling it against Vanderbilt. So forty 1514 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:01,840 Speaker 4: five and a half. I don't think that's too much 1515 01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 4: to ask. I'll go with Matthew Golden, the Texas wide receiver. 1516 01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:09,599 Speaker 4: Hook him, is what I say today. Like utter Helm 1517 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:12,800 Speaker 4: has that a great season as well, the Texas tight end, 1518 01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:14,960 Speaker 4: so we might be targeted a lot as well. So 1519 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:18,400 Speaker 4: keep your eye on the hornet. That's a good will 1520 01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:21,120 Speaker 4: you like that. Hey, what do you guys think about 1521 01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:23,960 Speaker 4: Travis Hunter? I know you're high on him. Yeah, I 1522 01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:26,800 Speaker 4: mean everybody that has a pair of football eyes is 1523 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:30,320 Speaker 4: high on Travis Hunter. But he was a decoy last week. 1524 01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 4: It's ninety two and a half receiving yards. He's been 1525 01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 4: dealing with that shoulder injury. I want to be surprised 1526 01:19:35,120 --> 01:19:38,160 Speaker 4: if that's under this evening against Cincinnati. 1527 01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 3: I could see that too. 1528 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:44,280 Speaker 4: Yep, yeah, nice, all right, comeing up next, something we 1529 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:47,519 Speaker 4: call the a la carte menu of college football. We 1530 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:52,519 Speaker 4: shall explain, oh, welcome in less than an hour away 1531 01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:57,400 Speaker 4: from kickoff as we count it down leading up. You know, 1532 01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 4: I like to call this an a la carte menu, 1533 01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:03,240 Speaker 4: if you will, right, because sometimes we hone in on 1534 01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:07,519 Speaker 4: a game and do this obnoxiously deep dive and so 1535 01:20:07,840 --> 01:20:11,960 Speaker 4: I like like fast break, remember like the old Phoenix 1536 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:14,840 Speaker 4: sun seven seconds or less. You know, they get a 1537 01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:17,040 Speaker 4: shot up and they're moving and keep the ball moving. 1538 01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,040 Speaker 4: That's what I like, you know, So if we hit 1539 01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:22,280 Speaker 4: on a number of games over here, we've got some 1540 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:27,479 Speaker 4: big dogs, some big dogs meaning big underdogs. How about 1541 01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,360 Speaker 4: Oklahoma and how ugly it was for them? He had 1542 01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:35,280 Speaker 4: Gerald McCoy, former Sooner, say, this is an embarrassing with 1543 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:38,720 Speaker 4: them just getting shell ACKed by South Carolina last week. 1544 01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:43,960 Speaker 4: They're plus eighteen and a half at Old Miss today. Guys, 1545 01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:47,280 Speaker 4: this could get ugly. Man, this could be an ugly one. 1546 01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:49,800 Speaker 4: And they're not the only big dog, but they're the 1547 01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:51,840 Speaker 4: first big dog that we'll talk about here. What do 1548 01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 4: you think about the Sooners? 1549 01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:54,520 Speaker 3: They need a big turnaround. 1550 01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:58,559 Speaker 5: This is such a slippery slope and I mean talk 1551 01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:03,960 Speaker 5: about a less than fortuitous start to your SEC alignment, right. 1552 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,720 Speaker 5: You know Texas obviously they have their issues at quarterback, 1553 01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:12,120 Speaker 5: but this was supposed to feel and look so different 1554 01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:15,200 Speaker 5: for these big twelve teams joining the big boys. 1555 01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:17,360 Speaker 2: And it's exactly when when. 1556 01:21:17,280 --> 01:21:21,160 Speaker 5: We were sort of trying to preview what the SEC 1557 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:23,960 Speaker 5: was gonna look like with these editions, we knew one 1558 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 5: of these two teams was going to struggle. 1559 01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 3: And we have our answer. 1560 01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:30,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, the number is insane, but Oklahoma hasn't 1561 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:34,000 Speaker 6: done anything to warrant anything different. Like last week, the 1562 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 6: game was a pick them at South Carolina. They had 1563 01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 6: no shot at that game from the jump. They get 1564 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:40,960 Speaker 6: blown out by Texas. Like every time they've managed up 1565 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,519 Speaker 6: this year, they've just gotten pushed back. I don't love 1566 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 6: this old miss team, but this is a get right 1567 01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,280 Speaker 6: spot for them. They're a sub five hundred team in 1568 01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:51,599 Speaker 6: the SEC. They've got a couple of tough games on deck, 1569 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:54,360 Speaker 6: but for the most part, like that game against Georgia's Circle, 1570 01:21:54,439 --> 01:21:55,280 Speaker 6: they can run the table. 1571 01:21:55,320 --> 01:21:57,960 Speaker 2: Here and they can, you know, maybe get to maybe 1572 01:21:58,000 --> 01:21:58,800 Speaker 2: get to nine wins. 1573 01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:00,880 Speaker 6: I don't think they're gonna beat Georgia, but yeah, they 1574 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:03,080 Speaker 6: should take care of business today against the really battle 1575 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:03,479 Speaker 6: you team. 1576 01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:07,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, another big dog Florida State with good reason. It 1577 01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:10,920 Speaker 4: has been a horror show this year for them. They're 1578 01:22:10,960 --> 01:22:13,880 Speaker 4: one in six. Florida State is one in six, and 1579 01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:18,400 Speaker 4: they're facing sixth ranked Miami Miami seven to zero, Miami 1580 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:22,200 Speaker 4: twenty one point favorites here. Initially, you might think for 1581 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:25,559 Speaker 4: a couple of seconds, hey, this big rivalry game, maybe 1582 01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:29,919 Speaker 4: Florida State plays over their heads in this one. It's possible. 1583 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:33,240 Speaker 4: I think it's a blowout city man. I think this 1584 01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:37,800 Speaker 4: is doors blown off of you territory. Miami's defense not 1585 01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:41,720 Speaker 4: great at all, but Florida State's offense doesn't know what 1586 01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:45,040 Speaker 4: the meaning of great is. I just don't see Florida 1587 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:46,360 Speaker 4: State scoring even on Miami. 1588 01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 3: No. 1589 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:49,679 Speaker 2: No, I look the Canes. 1590 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:55,799 Speaker 5: They've got a true Heisman candidate at quarterback in cam Ward. 1591 01:22:56,840 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 5: They've got a stout defense. They're I mean you look 1592 01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:04,400 Speaker 5: at the top of the rankings. I mean they're either 1593 01:23:04,600 --> 01:23:07,639 Speaker 5: near the top fifty or in the top twenty five 1594 01:23:07,720 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 5: and most of the statistics that matter. They're also looking 1595 01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:14,960 Speaker 5: for their first start to an eight to no season 1596 01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:20,000 Speaker 5: since twenty seventeen. They're gonna be wearing the all black uniforms. 1597 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 5: I mean, the Canes all the way. I don't see 1598 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 5: it any other way than the hurricanes being exactly that 1599 01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:29,759 Speaker 5: a hurricane for the Seminoles to handle. 1600 01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 6: Florida State hasn't topped sixteen points since that Week zero 1601 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,280 Speaker 6: game against Georgia Tech. They lost that game too, by 1602 01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:39,360 Speaker 6: the way, twenty four to twenty one. I mean, it's 1603 01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:42,439 Speaker 6: just they're a teenager on offense. 1604 01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:47,680 Speaker 2: They cannot get out of the teams. So funny, Yeah, 1605 01:23:48,640 --> 01:23:53,800 Speaker 2: adolescents for the rules. Cam Ward's winning the Heisman. You 1606 01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:54,599 Speaker 2: heard it here first. 1607 01:23:54,720 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 6: Wow, Okay, cam Ward is one hundred all right, not 1608 01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 6: one hundred ninety nine at winning the Heisman. Wow, listen, 1609 01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:07,280 Speaker 6: just cap the race. This is like he is Jaden 1610 01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:10,439 Speaker 6: Daniels of last year. He is now Grant Obviously Miami 1611 01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:14,200 Speaker 6: could could he can get hurt something ridiculously unforeseen. There's 1612 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:19,519 Speaker 6: your one percent. But he checks every box, he really does. 1613 01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:21,439 Speaker 6: Like they have a suspect defense. They're going to be 1614 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:23,960 Speaker 6: you know, the meter is gonna have to be running 1615 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:27,080 Speaker 6: on offense. And look at the schedule of Florida State, Duke, 1616 01:24:27,120 --> 01:24:30,640 Speaker 6: Georgia Tech, Wake, Syracuse. I mean, like, what game is 1617 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:31,920 Speaker 6: he not putting up numbers in. 1618 01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:34,040 Speaker 2: Man? 1619 01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:38,240 Speaker 4: And then also this Georgia I'm sorry, this Nebraska Ohio 1620 01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 4: State game. Nebraska is an underdog by twenty five and 1621 01:24:42,120 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 4: a half points. They got absolutely worked by the Hoosiers 1622 01:24:47,040 --> 01:24:49,439 Speaker 4: last week, and it just shows you how long this 1623 01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:53,120 Speaker 4: season is. It wasn't that long ago. The first half 1624 01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:57,040 Speaker 4: at home against Colorado, You're like, wow, they look dominant 1625 01:24:57,160 --> 01:25:00,800 Speaker 4: in the trenches and I like their d line man 1626 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:06,040 Speaker 4: fifty six to seven against the Indiana Like whoa. And 1627 01:25:06,160 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 4: then they're twenty five and a half point underdogs against 1628 01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:12,400 Speaker 4: the Buckeyes today, Like that's there's a five and two 1629 01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:15,519 Speaker 4: team at the end of the day. But the odds 1630 01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:18,559 Speaker 4: makers are like, yeah, we see right through that five 1631 01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:19,240 Speaker 4: and two here. 1632 01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:25,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, look that that Huskers beat down they took at 1633 01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:29,640 Speaker 5: the hands of the Hoosiers. And by the way, that 1634 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:33,200 Speaker 5: was homecoming for Indiana, Like they were like, yeah, yeah, 1635 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:35,440 Speaker 5: we'll take Nebraska, we'll handle business. 1636 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,880 Speaker 3: There, and they boy did they do just that. 1637 01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:41,360 Speaker 5: But look to the other sideline, and I understand a 1638 01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:44,880 Speaker 5: bye week is separating the heartbreak on the road against 1639 01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:49,599 Speaker 5: Oregon and everything that we saw. Dan le Lanning harold 1640 01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:53,120 Speaker 5: it as a genius for his late game, situational awareness, 1641 01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:57,599 Speaker 5: taking a penalty, all those things are great, or committing 1642 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:01,160 Speaker 5: a penalty, all those things are great. But when when 1643 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:04,040 Speaker 5: you really think about the emotion of that loss, it 1644 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:08,200 Speaker 5: was there enough time to recover fully from that. Because 1645 01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 5: we talk about this on this show a lot, you know, 1646 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:14,679 Speaker 5: it's not just x's and o's, it's not just the stats. 1647 01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:17,439 Speaker 5: You also got to look at the emotional makeup of 1648 01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:20,400 Speaker 5: a team. Ohio State's about to be tested a little 1649 01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:22,679 Speaker 5: bit here. You know, Let's see if they have grit, 1650 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:27,720 Speaker 5: Let's see if they have intestinal fortitude. I think it's 1651 01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:30,519 Speaker 5: gonna be a big win for Ohio State. I sort 1652 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:32,519 Speaker 5: of feel like this is going to be a spot 1653 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:34,920 Speaker 5: where they say, hey, no, no, no, no, that's a 1654 01:26:34,960 --> 01:26:37,360 Speaker 5: blip on our radar. We're gonna treat that Oregon loss 1655 01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:39,120 Speaker 5: just like any other loss, and we're gonna move on 1656 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:42,080 Speaker 5: with our lives. But there is an outside chance the 1657 01:26:42,200 --> 01:26:46,920 Speaker 5: sting of that loss is still sticking with them and 1658 01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:48,800 Speaker 5: they lurch out of the gate and if you give 1659 01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:51,439 Speaker 5: the Huskers too many opportunities. That's a team that can 1660 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:53,680 Speaker 5: and has shown earlier in the season. 1661 01:26:53,439 --> 01:26:57,639 Speaker 2: At least they can capitalize. Yet Nebraska is good against 1662 01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:00,519 Speaker 2: the run. That's what Ohio State wants to do. Strength, 1663 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:01,639 Speaker 2: strength on strength. 1664 01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:04,680 Speaker 6: Well, I agree, Rich, Well, well, we'll find out more 1665 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:08,560 Speaker 6: about Ohio State's intestinal fortitude in this game. But the 1666 01:27:08,680 --> 01:27:11,439 Speaker 6: spot's not great for Ohio State either. They got Penn 1667 01:27:11,479 --> 01:27:13,360 Speaker 6: State next week. Yeah, and that's why I don't like 1668 01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:16,599 Speaker 6: Sandwich game. Yeah, Like, that's why I don't like Penn 1669 01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,200 Speaker 6: State a lot today. It's just like a tough spot 1670 01:27:19,360 --> 01:27:22,599 Speaker 6: like that that this game. And maybe I'm just speaking 1671 01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 6: from a really you know, Penn State perspective, but this 1672 01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:27,720 Speaker 6: game's been circled on the calendar all season. This is 1673 01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 6: the game, this game, this is the game that will 1674 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,640 Speaker 6: determine whether or not Penn State has a chance to 1675 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:34,760 Speaker 6: actually compete make the culturable playoff or if they're just 1676 01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:37,360 Speaker 6: another nine to ten win Penn State team that goes 1677 01:27:37,400 --> 01:27:39,719 Speaker 6: to a you know, New Year's Day Bowl and competes 1678 01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:43,000 Speaker 6: against somebody who's not above their level. So we'll see 1679 01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:45,840 Speaker 6: how Ohio State handles that today. The good news for 1680 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,120 Speaker 6: Ohio State is you're afu loss, so there's some motivation there, 1681 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:50,559 Speaker 6: whereas Penn State's off the bye, which is a little 1682 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:51,599 Speaker 6: bit trickier of a spot. 1683 01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:56,559 Speaker 4: Okay, so we've got some negativity and some positivity. All right, 1684 01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:00,320 Speaker 4: these are both tweets into the show. Which would you like? 1685 01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 2: First you have a reference here negative negativity? 1686 01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:03,599 Speaker 3: First? 1687 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:07,240 Speaker 4: Let's okay, how about some Notre Dame negativity? Boy, that's 1688 01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:09,200 Speaker 4: even more negative than. 1689 01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 2: Talked about it. 1690 01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:13,519 Speaker 6: Then today, yeah, saving that for last time, Brian, you 1691 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:14,840 Speaker 6: know a worried about this game today? 1692 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:16,320 Speaker 2: No worries at all. 1693 01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:18,200 Speaker 6: No. 1694 01:28:18,400 --> 01:28:22,800 Speaker 4: Blake Burnett checks in, Uh, he supports the show shout 1695 01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:27,040 Speaker 4: out to him. But but he writes, hopefully we are 1696 01:28:27,200 --> 01:28:30,960 Speaker 4: done talking about the Irish after today. Neither them nor 1697 01:28:31,120 --> 01:28:34,560 Speaker 4: Miami deserve to get in with that joke of a 1698 01:28:34,720 --> 01:28:39,320 Speaker 4: schedule caps on joke. Okay, here's the thing, man, Like, 1699 01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna tell you it's murderer's row for Notre Dame. 1700 01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:46,360 Speaker 4: It's better than Miami schedule. If you look at ESPN 1701 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 4: has this like strength of schedule to this point, right, 1702 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,120 Speaker 4: games already played and then they do it on the 1703 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,880 Speaker 4: remaining schedule as well. But the games that have been 1704 01:28:55,000 --> 01:29:00,200 Speaker 4: played already. Notre Dame strength of schedule is sixtieth. Let's 1705 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:04,120 Speaker 4: not that far away from Texas, that's fifty fourth. That 1706 01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:06,760 Speaker 4: might surprise some people, right, they just played Georgia. They're 1707 01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:09,840 Speaker 4: still in the vicinity of Notre Dame. Notre Dame strength 1708 01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:16,120 Speaker 4: to schedule better thus far than Clemson, Nebraska, Colorado, Penn State. 1709 01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:19,160 Speaker 4: Penn State's at seventy first. I just think it's odd, right, 1710 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:23,320 Speaker 4: I think the Notre Dame hatred as far as their 1711 01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:27,840 Speaker 4: schedule goes, is a bit odd because again, they've already 1712 01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:30,360 Speaker 4: played A and M on the road and one they 1713 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:35,120 Speaker 4: beat Louisville. They still have Navy Army both ranked at USC. 1714 01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:38,400 Speaker 4: I mean, it's a soft schedule. It'll gound be wrong, 1715 01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:40,240 Speaker 4: but a lot of people make it out as if 1716 01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:45,800 Speaker 4: they're playing I don't know, like McGillicutty State every single week, right, Like, 1717 01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:48,560 Speaker 4: I think it goes above and beyond that's all. What 1718 01:29:48,640 --> 01:29:49,280 Speaker 4: do you guys think? 1719 01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:49,800 Speaker 3: You know what? 1720 01:29:49,880 --> 01:29:52,280 Speaker 2: I want to get to the positivity. I'll be brief here. 1721 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:58,200 Speaker 5: Okay, It's really interesting how people look at Notre Dame, 1722 01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 5: and I think the reason is why things get tossed 1723 01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:05,360 Speaker 5: into Notre Dame fans faces is because they're a little 1724 01:30:05,439 --> 01:30:08,400 Speaker 5: bit of a bannerless. 1725 01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:09,880 Speaker 2: Team. 1726 01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:10,320 Speaker 3: You know. 1727 01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:14,120 Speaker 5: They they're not SEC or ACC they're not Big ten. 1728 01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:17,880 Speaker 5: They's sort of this arbitrary we're floating somewhere in the 1729 01:30:17,960 --> 01:30:20,800 Speaker 5: near distance of a couple of different conference. Mostly they 1730 01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:23,559 Speaker 5: see see but sometimes Big ten, you know, and they're 1731 01:30:23,640 --> 01:30:26,120 Speaker 5: just there. They're just there. And so I think that's 1732 01:30:26,120 --> 01:30:28,719 Speaker 5: the reason why they face so much scrutiny for their schedule. 1733 01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:31,719 Speaker 5: But as you pointed out, plenty of teams have weak 1734 01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:32,960 Speaker 5: strength of schedule. 1735 01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:36,759 Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't like the transitive property stuff with college football. 1736 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:39,880 Speaker 6: I don't buy it because, like we watch these games, 1737 01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:43,040 Speaker 6: any game, anything can happen in these games. Sometimes you 1738 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:44,479 Speaker 6: catch a team on a good day, you catch a 1739 01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:47,800 Speaker 6: team on a bad day. So it's hard to really 1740 01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:50,680 Speaker 6: deep dive into the transitive pro Oh, this team beat 1741 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 6: this team, and this team can beat this team. So 1742 01:30:52,520 --> 01:30:54,560 Speaker 6: it just you cut your you put your brain in 1743 01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:57,920 Speaker 6: a pretzel when you do that. I think navyes live today, 1744 01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 6: I really do. I maybe Noted just bulldozes them. And 1745 01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:04,360 Speaker 6: you know, Navy hasn't played anyone and can't stop the run. 1746 01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 6: But and you know, you Dame just smash mouth. That's 1747 01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:08,840 Speaker 6: kind of the vibe that I got on this game. 1748 01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:12,639 Speaker 2: But man, Navy's got this junkie, quirky offense. 1749 01:31:12,720 --> 01:31:15,679 Speaker 6: It's tough to prepare for, and Notre Dame hasn't really 1750 01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:17,759 Speaker 6: managed up that well this year, although the game against 1751 01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:19,799 Speaker 6: A and M Week one was pretty solid. 1752 01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:22,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, Brian. I would be a little 1753 01:31:22,520 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 2: worried in this game. 1754 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:28,559 Speaker 4: Just a little bit none play Corvath, meet a real defense, 1755 01:31:28,720 --> 01:31:31,320 Speaker 4: That's what I say. Even a banged up defense, meet 1756 01:31:31,360 --> 01:31:34,360 Speaker 4: a real defense. Horrorvath, That's what I say. Now, this 1757 01:31:34,439 --> 01:31:37,720 Speaker 4: is the positivity is from our guy, Bake checks and 1758 01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:39,880 Speaker 4: very nice. He says. I just went away in and 1759 01:31:39,960 --> 01:31:43,519 Speaker 4: say I really enjoy your show every Saturday, and then 1760 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:45,560 Speaker 4: shouted all of us out. Now, we mentioned the the 1761 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:49,519 Speaker 4: Yankees loss the Freddie Freeman walk off Grand Slam, and 1762 01:31:49,560 --> 01:31:51,640 Speaker 4: he said, as a Yankees fan, I thought Alex had 1763 01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:55,120 Speaker 4: won the game. It's crazy. It's this epic catch for 1764 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:59,000 Speaker 4: the second out of the tenth inning and then down 1765 01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:00,840 Speaker 4: to their final out for he hits a walk off 1766 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:03,920 Speaker 4: grand slam that was insane. The one thing though, briefly, 1767 01:32:03,960 --> 01:32:07,320 Speaker 4: while we're talking about this, I Chris and I were 1768 01:32:07,360 --> 01:32:10,000 Speaker 4: talking in a break a little while ago, Chris Purfet, 1769 01:32:10,160 --> 01:32:13,519 Speaker 4: technical producer, extraordinary, and we both had the same reaction 1770 01:32:13,680 --> 01:32:15,880 Speaker 4: for you. Jared were like, we thought you were a 1771 01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:16,639 Speaker 4: Mets fan. 1772 01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:20,160 Speaker 2: No, what's what's going on here? Yeah, Yankees fan my 1773 01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:20,679 Speaker 2: whole life. 1774 01:32:21,120 --> 01:32:23,920 Speaker 4: Wow, we had it twisted. I thought it was Mets 1775 01:32:24,040 --> 01:32:24,200 Speaker 4: for you. 1776 01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:27,560 Speaker 6: No, So the backstore with me and my family with 1777 01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:30,679 Speaker 6: the Yankees. My grandfather was best friends with Stick Michael 1778 01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:34,560 Speaker 6: growing up, and so I went all the games. I 1779 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:36,360 Speaker 6: went to the old Lockhart Stadium and they played in 1780 01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:39,000 Speaker 6: Fort Lauderdale. I've been a Yankee, my whole family Yankees, Yankees, 1781 01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 6: Yankee since births. 1782 01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:40,760 Speaker 2: Huh wow. 1783 01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:43,559 Speaker 8: I think it's just because every other New York person 1784 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:46,040 Speaker 8: around is like Mets. 1785 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:50,040 Speaker 6: Well, the connection is Mets and Jets because the Mets 1786 01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:51,960 Speaker 6: or the Jets used to play at Shay and the 1787 01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:52,439 Speaker 6: and the. 1788 01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:54,400 Speaker 2: Giants used to play Yankee Stadium. 1789 01:32:54,439 --> 01:32:57,640 Speaker 8: But I feel like everyone else in sports there is 1790 01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:00,880 Speaker 8: like this stereotype. If you're in sports media and you 1791 01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:03,880 Speaker 8: root for New York teams, it's obviously you're going to 1792 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:06,760 Speaker 8: be a Mets fan, because New York Yankees fans are 1793 01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:09,000 Speaker 8: just for some reason, they're not the ones who take 1794 01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:11,799 Speaker 8: up the microphone, so like you're you're the outlier. 1795 01:33:12,360 --> 01:33:14,080 Speaker 2: Thank you for that. I know that's I don't know 1796 01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:15,800 Speaker 2: if that the compliment or not, but thank you. And 1797 01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:19,120 Speaker 2: I think there's yeah, quick up the jeans. 1798 01:33:19,200 --> 01:33:23,720 Speaker 5: Stick Michael got the nickname because he was a slender fella. 1799 01:33:26,560 --> 01:33:27,519 Speaker 2: Pounder. How about that. 1800 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:29,880 Speaker 6: Him and my grandfather used to hang out at the 1801 01:33:30,920 --> 01:33:33,760 Speaker 6: harness tracks in Fort Lauderdale when the Yankees trained at 1802 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 6: Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale before they got Steinbrennerfield in Tampa. 1803 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:41,200 Speaker 2: And that was that's how I became indoctrinated into the Yankees. 1804 01:33:41,280 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 2: They were they were, they were betting the ponies together, 1805 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:45,240 Speaker 2: and I actually it was I think it was. I 1806 01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:48,240 Speaker 2: think it was the harness. Oh, not even the ponies, 1807 01:33:48,400 --> 01:33:50,200 Speaker 2: not even the Thoroughbreds, the trotters. 1808 01:33:50,720 --> 01:33:52,840 Speaker 4: You never know what the nickname like that rich. You 1809 01:33:52,920 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 4: could go either way. Sometimes tiny isn't exactly tiny. I 1810 01:33:57,600 --> 01:34:01,120 Speaker 4: like Stick, he could be four bill are one sixty 1811 01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:02,640 Speaker 4: five soaking wet, you know. 1812 01:34:02,720 --> 01:34:03,639 Speaker 2: And you go either way. 1813 01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:05,920 Speaker 6: He was the architect of all those great Yankee teams. 1814 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:08,760 Speaker 6: He was Yeah, I met him a few times, you know, 1815 01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:10,800 Speaker 6: when he was when he was when I was younger. 1816 01:34:11,400 --> 01:34:13,559 Speaker 4: Very nice, very nice. That's the voice of Jared Smith 1817 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:17,680 Speaker 4: FSR betting analyst Rich Ornberger with US Penn State All American. 1818 01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:21,360 Speaker 4: I'm Brian No. Throughout the entire football season, betmgm will 1819 01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:23,600 Speaker 4: offer all different types of boost tokens.

Look at Navy, looking 1839 01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:38,720 Speaker 4: what Navy is done, Blake Corvett, I'll tell you this. 1840 01:35:40,080 --> 01:35:42,240 Speaker 4: This is a great, great description. 1841 01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:43,000 Speaker 3: There you go. 1842 01:35:43,080 --> 01:35:45,840 Speaker 4: I like that, Chris, very nice. It's great description of 1843 01:35:45,880 --> 01:35:51,320 Speaker 4: the Navy offense. It's called the sling t okay, so 1844 01:35:51,439 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 4: it's like the wing tea, but they throw the ball 1845 01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:56,160 Speaker 4: all over the place, or at least they throw it 1846 01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:59,240 Speaker 4: around more than your traditional wing tea offense. So they 1847 01:35:59,320 --> 01:36:03,879 Speaker 4: call it the slingty. How great is that? That's awesome? 1848 01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 4: And Blake Corvatt's been doing his thing. He's played great 1849 01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:07,240 Speaker 4: football thus far. 1850 01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:12,960 Speaker 5: So Notre Dame Navy, this one is pretty huge for 1851 01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:17,519 Speaker 5: the military academies. And I understand that both Navy and 1852 01:36:17,880 --> 01:36:20,599 Speaker 5: Army are gonna get an opportunity to take on Notre Dame. 1853 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:24,439 Speaker 5: Actually in New York or thereabouts, this game happening at 1854 01:36:24,520 --> 01:36:28,960 Speaker 5: MetLife the game later to Army Yankee Stadium. That's gonna 1855 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:31,719 Speaker 5: be in late November. I'm excited for both these games. 1856 01:36:31,760 --> 01:36:34,479 Speaker 5: I think these are unique things that Notre Dame, like 1857 01:36:34,560 --> 01:36:37,760 Speaker 5: we were talking about earlier, they're kind of this albatross, 1858 01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:40,320 Speaker 5: like they get to do whatever they want scheduling wise, 1859 01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:43,080 Speaker 5: so they have these opportunities that come up, or playing 1860 01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:45,240 Speaker 5: over in Dublin that makes a lot of sense with 1861 01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:47,559 Speaker 5: their tie ins being the fighting Irish. 1862 01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:48,080 Speaker 2: It's fun. 1863 01:36:48,640 --> 01:36:52,160 Speaker 5: Well, this could be fun or it could be an 1864 01:36:52,280 --> 01:36:55,120 Speaker 5: awful situation for Notre Dame because if they lose one 1865 01:36:55,160 --> 01:37:02,200 Speaker 5: more game, especially after that Northern Illinois loss earlier this season, 1866 01:37:02,800 --> 01:37:06,760 Speaker 5: you can pretty much count them out of the playoffs. 1867 01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:09,840 Speaker 2: So you can't lose this one. If your Notre Dame. 1868 01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:13,680 Speaker 5: We talked about their strength of schedule, it's just not 1869 01:37:13,800 --> 01:37:16,200 Speaker 5: gonna happen for them. Then on the other side of 1870 01:37:16,240 --> 01:37:19,599 Speaker 5: the docket, you look at Navy, and again, Army's gonna 1871 01:37:19,640 --> 01:37:19,880 Speaker 5: get a. 1872 01:37:20,120 --> 01:37:22,200 Speaker 2: Bite at the Apple two against Notre Dame. 1873 01:37:22,280 --> 01:37:27,760 Speaker 5: But right now everybody's talking about the military academies. 1874 01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:27,880 Speaker 3: In a certain way. 1875 01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:30,560 Speaker 5: It's like, oh, it's the first time since the sixties, 1876 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,639 Speaker 5: this and that, and it's record breaking this and it's 1877 01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:38,040 Speaker 5: this is the first real test, and so I almost 1878 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:41,760 Speaker 5: feel like, even though it's just Navy playing today, they're 1879 01:37:41,800 --> 01:37:45,240 Speaker 5: representing a lot more than just Navy playing today, if 1880 01:37:45,280 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 5: that makes sense. 1881 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:49,559 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm curious what this line would have been if 1882 01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:53,400 Speaker 6: the thirty five yard field goal from cannon Woodhill and 1883 01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:57,599 Speaker 6: I use kicker missed and Notre Dame was a top 1884 01:37:57,760 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 6: five undefeated team. Sure, right, Like, and that's one kick, 1885 01:38:02,960 --> 01:38:07,439 Speaker 6: one kick six weeks ago. How is our perception of 1886 01:38:07,560 --> 01:38:09,800 Speaker 6: Notre Dame differently? My guess is this line is over 1887 01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 6: two touchdowns. So just I do think you are getting 1888 01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:14,720 Speaker 6: a slight discount on the Irish just because of that 1889 01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 6: one kick. 1890 01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:19,760 Speaker 2: Navy hasn't played anybody. I won't pull punches here. People 1891 01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:20,479 Speaker 2: there there's. 1892 01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:29,240 Speaker 4: Who's who's fighting? Either that the Looney Tunes or oh 1893 01:38:29,320 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 4: this is something Navy related? 1894 01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:31,400 Speaker 6: Right? 1895 01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:32,799 Speaker 4: I thought it was Popeye from. 1896 01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:36,600 Speaker 2: Apparent that was and I. 1897 01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:38,320 Speaker 6: Used to be so my hig school football was used 1898 01:38:38,320 --> 01:38:39,800 Speaker 6: to play all the fight songs during our warm up. 1899 01:38:39,840 --> 01:38:41,640 Speaker 6: It was awesome, but that was not one of them 1900 01:38:41,680 --> 01:38:45,519 Speaker 6: that they played. Forty four percent of Navies plays this 1901 01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:48,760 Speaker 6: year from the drop back, there you go, the sling Tea. 1902 01:38:48,960 --> 01:38:51,720 Speaker 6: Never would never would have guessed that, never would have 1903 01:38:51,720 --> 01:38:53,000 Speaker 6: guessed that Drew Chronic came. 1904 01:38:52,960 --> 01:38:55,640 Speaker 2: Over from Mercer. You've done a really good job with 1905 01:38:55,760 --> 01:38:56,639 Speaker 2: this Navy offense. 1906 01:38:57,560 --> 01:39:00,639 Speaker 6: Can Notre Dame stop the initial burst of I think 1907 01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:03,880 Speaker 6: so Howard Cross is getting healthier. Mills, the other guy 1908 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:05,960 Speaker 6: in the interior has been playing pretty well. I think 1909 01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:08,040 Speaker 6: Notre Dame's offense will hold up well against the run. 1910 01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:11,040 Speaker 6: The question is how they handle the gimmicks on the 1911 01:39:11,120 --> 01:39:13,400 Speaker 6: other side. Notre Dames actually faced a really good. 1912 01:39:13,320 --> 01:39:14,280 Speaker 2: Schedule of defenses. 1913 01:39:14,400 --> 01:39:17,599 Speaker 4: Navy is not Wait a minute, stop depresses right there. 1914 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:19,479 Speaker 4: I thought they played nobody in Jeridow. 1915 01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:22,120 Speaker 6: Notre Dame's offense has faced a top twenty schedule of 1916 01:39:22,160 --> 01:39:22,880 Speaker 6: opposing defense. 1917 01:39:22,960 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 4: Wow, take that, Blake Burnett. 1918 01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:26,040 Speaker 3: There you go. 1919 01:39:26,800 --> 01:39:30,920 Speaker 6: Navy's defense has faced a schedule of opposing offenses outside 1920 01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:34,720 Speaker 6: the top one ten. Despite that, the Notre Dame run 1921 01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:36,679 Speaker 6: game has actually been good. Despite the fact that they've 1922 01:39:36,680 --> 01:39:39,280 Speaker 6: played a really good scheduled defenses, they have run it 1923 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:44,559 Speaker 6: really well. Jeremiah Love, outside of Ashton Genty and Jonah Coleman, 1924 01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:47,920 Speaker 6: is the most elusive back in the country. Forced to 1925 01:39:47,960 --> 01:39:50,519 Speaker 6: mistackle on thirty one percent of runs. Like the game 1926 01:39:50,600 --> 01:39:54,479 Speaker 6: plan is very simple for Notre Dame smash Mouth. Navy 1927 01:39:54,560 --> 01:39:56,840 Speaker 6: knows that they're probably gonna put eight in the box. 1928 01:39:57,080 --> 01:39:58,759 Speaker 6: But what does that do for Riley Leonard. 1929 01:39:58,920 --> 01:40:02,519 Speaker 2: We haven't seen Riley Leonard really show you his arm talent. 1930 01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:03,559 Speaker 2: He does have a good arm. 1931 01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:05,960 Speaker 6: He can't throw it, but he's only eclipse two hundred 1932 01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:08,160 Speaker 6: passing yards twice in seven games this year, and those 1933 01:40:08,200 --> 01:40:11,120 Speaker 6: are against Georgia Tech and Stanford. Like for me, Brian, 1934 01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:13,680 Speaker 6: the path is Navy's gonna try to stop the run 1935 01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:16,360 Speaker 6: eight in the box. Can Riley Leonard have one of 1936 01:40:16,439 --> 01:40:19,120 Speaker 6: those really good games that we're expecting him to have 1937 01:40:19,439 --> 01:40:21,400 Speaker 6: coming over from Duke. He hasn't really seen it. We 1938 01:40:21,479 --> 01:40:23,920 Speaker 6: haven't seen it yet, but I think it's in him 1939 01:40:24,120 --> 01:40:25,680 Speaker 6: to have one of those games. I think this is 1940 01:40:25,720 --> 01:40:26,960 Speaker 6: the day where he can really perform. 1941 01:40:27,240 --> 01:40:30,240 Speaker 4: No, I'm with you, because, man, the beginning of this season, 1942 01:40:30,479 --> 01:40:34,880 Speaker 4: it was rough for Riley Leonard throwing the football. It 1943 01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:37,880 Speaker 4: was just it was an eye sore and it's been 1944 01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:41,800 Speaker 4: better lately. And to your point, Hey, if Navy just 1945 01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:44,840 Speaker 4: sells out against the rush, I think that's your best 1946 01:40:44,960 --> 01:40:47,800 Speaker 4: chance is make Riley Leonard beat you with his arm, 1947 01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:50,559 Speaker 4: not his legs. The problem is hard to stop him 1948 01:40:50,880 --> 01:40:53,519 Speaker 4: from running on you, you know. So we'll see if 1949 01:40:53,600 --> 01:40:58,160 Speaker 4: Navy can have some run defense success. Notre Dame. They've 1950 01:40:58,240 --> 01:41:01,960 Speaker 4: averaged forty one points per game since that Northern Illinois loss, 1951 01:41:02,680 --> 01:41:05,320 Speaker 4: so they've cranked it up quite a bit. And the 1952 01:41:05,439 --> 01:41:07,639 Speaker 4: total in this game is fifty and a half. Always 1953 01:41:07,720 --> 01:41:10,800 Speaker 4: interesting when you think about Navy, and they do run 1954 01:41:10,840 --> 01:41:12,640 Speaker 4: the ball a lot and that can show up a 1955 01:41:12,680 --> 01:41:15,120 Speaker 4: lot of clock. So when you keep that in mind, 1956 01:41:15,200 --> 01:41:17,800 Speaker 4: fifty and a half is pretty healthy total, right there. 1957 01:41:17,960 --> 01:41:20,880 Speaker 4: So very interested for this one, and with that, I 1958 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:23,960 Speaker 4: mean interested in a game, interested in I don't know, 1959 01:41:24,520 --> 01:41:29,760 Speaker 4: an update anchor and all of his life goings on 1960 01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 4: over here. I love if you you can give us 1961 01:41:31,880 --> 01:41:34,000 Speaker 4: a blend of what's going on in your world and 1962 01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 4: the sports world. We would love that too. 1963 01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:39,960 Speaker 7: For one combo world is the key word, because earlier 1964 01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:43,559 Speaker 7: we've played the Freddie Freeman home run in Spanish. We're 1965 01:41:43,600 --> 01:41:47,280 Speaker 7: going to go to another destination and another language, and 1966 01:41:47,479 --> 01:41:49,080 Speaker 7: just a little bit because of Game one of the 1967 01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:52,320 Speaker 7: World Series on Friday night from Los Angeles, Dodgers trailed 1968 01:41:52,320 --> 01:41:54,519 Speaker 7: the New York Yankees three to two with two outs 1969 01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:56,320 Speaker 7: in the bottom of the tenth inning, but they had 1970 01:41:56,360 --> 01:41:59,519 Speaker 7: the bases loaded and the aforementioned Freddie Freeman coming to 1971 01:41:59,560 --> 01:41:59,840 Speaker 7: the plate. 1972 01:42:00,280 --> 01:42:01,480 Speaker 4: Furt sentas delivers. 1973 01:42:02,680 --> 01:42:05,800 Speaker 2: That's my good ses. 1974 01:42:11,920 --> 01:42:15,839 Speaker 10: Made game series. 1975 01:42:18,320 --> 01:42:20,719 Speaker 7: Joe Davis with a call on Fox Game two tonight 1976 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,080 Speaker 7: at eight o eight Eastern.

So, 1981 01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:41,000 Speaker 7: like I said earlier, we played the Yankees Spanish radio call. 1982 01:42:41,520 --> 01:42:47,360 Speaker 7: Here's how it sounded in Japan on Fuji TV Cayo. 1983 01:42:50,160 --> 01:43:00,800 Speaker 4: Yankees Night. 1984 01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 7: Say to nine punts in juxta. 1985 01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:11,960 Speaker 4: SI up Monday, hold of that cyanar Yanarah, we got that. 1986 01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1987 01:43:13,200 --> 01:43:16,080 Speaker 7: In the NBA on Friday Night, Anthony Davis scored thirty 1988 01:43:16,120 --> 01:43:18,640 Speaker 7: five of the Los Angeles Lakers one twenty three one 1989 01:43:18,800 --> 01:43:21,840 Speaker 7: sixteen win over Phoenix.

Last night, 1996 01:43:41,080 --> 01:43:44,080 Speaker 7: we had a football team win a game on a 1997 01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:48,320 Speaker 7: walk off punt. We talk about a walk off grand slam, 1998 01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:51,439 Speaker 7: home run, a walk off punt, not a walkoff punt 1999 01:43:51,479 --> 01:43:54,960 Speaker 7: return for a touchdown. A walk off punt. We're gonna 2000 01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:58,600 Speaker 7: take you to the Canadian Football League where the Toronto 2001 01:43:58,960 --> 01:44:04,120 Speaker 7: Argonauts and Edmonton Elks were tied at thirty.

So that was a game 2012 01:44:34,760 --> 01:44:38,880 Speaker 7: winning walk off punt in the Canadian Football League last night. 2013 01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:41,600 Speaker 2: I was years old when I learned what a rouge was. 2014 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:44,439 Speaker 7: I thought it was kind of makeup. 2015 01:44:44,720 --> 01:44:45,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I thought. 2016 01:44:45,680 --> 01:44:48,960 Speaker 4: It was insane, just the beads of it was like 2017 01:44:49,040 --> 01:44:54,840 Speaker 4: a yard short, you know, being decided.

I thought that 2041 01:46:05,600 --> 01:46:07,920 Speaker 4: was a sensational call by him, and I love the 2042 01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:10,519 Speaker 4: calls that Ilo has played from other countries as well. 2043 01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:11,640 Speaker 4: That's been great stuff too. 2044 01:46:11,920 --> 01:46:15,599 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, this truly is a world series this year. 2045 01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:20,040 Speaker 5: We know about the Latin American influence in baseball, and 2046 01:46:20,200 --> 01:46:22,720 Speaker 5: so clearly there's a lot of interested viewers to the 2047 01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:26,680 Speaker 5: south of our country, but the Asian community, especially out 2048 01:46:26,720 --> 01:46:30,280 Speaker 5: in Japan. I mean, I don't know if any country 2049 01:46:30,600 --> 01:46:33,960 Speaker 5: has participated more in the viewership of this sport over 2050 01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:35,679 Speaker 5: the course of this season than Japan. 2051 01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:38,799 Speaker 2: And I mean that especially when it comes to the Dodgers. 2052 01:46:39,080 --> 01:46:42,839 Speaker 5: Every television is tuned in to see what Shohei Otani 2053 01:46:43,000 --> 01:46:45,559 Speaker 5: is doing. So we're gonna hear a lot more of those, 2054 01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:48,880 Speaker 5: I promise you as this series rolls on. But yeah, 2055 01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:52,760 Speaker 5: getting back to your Joe Davis point, what an unbelievable 2056 01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:55,680 Speaker 5: moment to be on the call for and then to 2057 01:46:55,800 --> 01:47:01,160 Speaker 5: have the perfect words. I mean, it's just preparation meeting opportunity. 2058 01:47:01,200 --> 01:47:04,000 Speaker 5: It's the same thing as an athlete. So congrats to 2059 01:47:04,160 --> 01:47:07,519 Speaker 5: Joe Davis and the Fox crew there because that was 2060 01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:10,880 Speaker 5: they truly caught the moment the way that that that 2061 01:47:11,080 --> 01:47:12,479 Speaker 5: moment deserved to be caught. 2062 01:47:13,200 --> 01:47:14,960 Speaker 2: It's the best play by play. Guys are the ones 2063 01:47:15,040 --> 01:47:16,680 Speaker 2: that can just come up with stuff like that on 2064 01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:18,080 Speaker 2: the fly. He's fantastic. 2065 01:47:18,200 --> 01:47:22,280 Speaker 6: He's great to listen to one of my broadcasters, broadcasting 2066 01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:25,719 Speaker 6: professors of Penn States. That don't say something in seven words, 2067 01:47:25,720 --> 01:47:26,240 Speaker 6: you can say in. 2068 01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:29,080 Speaker 4: Five yeah, he said it in three. 2069 01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:29,960 Speaker 3: I mean. 2070 01:47:32,520 --> 01:47:35,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, good, No, it's so well done. Okay, So the 2071 01:47:35,600 --> 01:47:38,200 Speaker 4: number one team in the land Oregon seven to zero. 2072 01:47:38,800 --> 01:47:44,160 Speaker 4: They are hosting twentieth ranked Illinois and a big point spread. 2073 01:47:44,240 --> 01:47:47,280 Speaker 4: Oregon favored by twenty one and a half. It's an 2074 01:47:47,320 --> 01:47:51,040 Speaker 4: interesting note. So Oregon, they're number one in the country. Now, 2075 01:47:51,200 --> 01:47:55,759 Speaker 4: it's the fourth team that's been number one this season, 2076 01:47:55,920 --> 01:47:59,360 Speaker 4: so that's the most in the past ten years. So 2077 01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:03,240 Speaker 4: the question, I guess guys, is you think Oregon remains 2078 01:48:03,320 --> 01:48:07,040 Speaker 4: number one from here on out? Before the playoff begins. 2079 01:48:07,280 --> 01:48:09,160 Speaker 4: What do you think the chances of that happening are. 2080 01:48:09,560 --> 01:48:14,080 Speaker 5: I think I think they will because the rest of 2081 01:48:14,320 --> 01:48:17,920 Speaker 5: the season is in a cake walk necessarily for Oregon, 2082 01:48:18,080 --> 01:48:20,960 Speaker 5: but probably the next ranked team they're gonna face will 2083 01:48:21,000 --> 01:48:24,719 Speaker 5: be in the Big Ten championship game, assuming nothing goes 2084 01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:29,559 Speaker 5: off the rails completely for the Ducks. But yeah, having 2085 01:48:29,680 --> 01:48:32,439 Speaker 5: said that, Illinois is top twenty five for a reason. 2086 01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:36,640 Speaker 5: They've proven themselves to Ducks. What they have standing in 2087 01:48:36,760 --> 01:48:42,760 Speaker 5: their way from an obstacle standpoint is, and again off 2088 01:48:42,840 --> 01:48:47,920 Speaker 5: of you know, what's been an emotionally turbulent season. I 2089 01:48:48,000 --> 01:48:50,519 Speaker 5: they've They've had some major highs, they've had some nail 2090 01:48:50,560 --> 01:48:51,320 Speaker 5: biting moments. 2091 01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:54,680 Speaker 2: Is an undefeated season. 2092 01:48:54,840 --> 01:48:58,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, they have probably I would argue right now the 2093 01:48:58,840 --> 01:49:03,360 Speaker 5: best bid at an undefeated season in the country. 2094 01:49:03,840 --> 01:49:06,120 Speaker 2: And it's really because after. 2095 01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:09,519 Speaker 5: This game it gets easier. I don't know by what 2096 01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:13,120 Speaker 5: measure or quotient. It's hard to say because Jared, I 2097 01:49:13,160 --> 01:49:16,200 Speaker 5: thought you brought it up earlier, perfectly stated it. There's 2098 01:49:16,240 --> 01:49:20,880 Speaker 5: so much variability variability in college football. You'll say whatever 2099 01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:24,479 Speaker 5: you want about Vanderbilt heading into the Alabama game, Well, 2100 01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:27,920 Speaker 5: guess what they want. You can't forecast these things until 2101 01:49:27,960 --> 01:49:29,360 Speaker 5: these games are actually played. 2102 01:49:29,800 --> 01:49:32,479 Speaker 2: But this is a little bit of an impasse. 2103 01:49:32,560 --> 01:49:35,160 Speaker 5: They have an obstacle in their way to what otherwise 2104 01:49:35,200 --> 01:49:37,160 Speaker 5: looks like an easier schedule. 2105 01:49:37,360 --> 01:49:39,679 Speaker 3: So a lot riding on this one for the Ducks. 2106 01:49:40,200 --> 01:49:44,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, their schedule is not a cakewalk, guys. And I 2107 01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:49,879 Speaker 6: know the teams don't look very daunting. Illinois, Michigan, Maryland, Wisconsin, Washington. 2108 01:49:50,439 --> 01:49:54,519 Speaker 6: But you travel to Purdue, you travel to Michigan, you 2109 01:49:54,640 --> 01:49:58,320 Speaker 6: travel to Wisconsin. These are places that Organ's never been before, 2110 01:49:59,080 --> 01:50:01,439 Speaker 6: back and forth, the East coast, West coast, like it 2111 01:50:01,600 --> 01:50:04,240 Speaker 6: just it adds up and it takes its toll over time. 2112 01:50:04,520 --> 01:50:06,679 Speaker 2: I would not be shocked if they dropped the game. 2113 01:50:07,200 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 2: Nothing there. 2114 01:50:08,439 --> 01:50:12,080 Speaker 6: Nothing surprises me in college football anymore. We have to 2115 01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:15,640 Speaker 6: remove our brain from what we expect. This is the 2116 01:50:15,760 --> 01:50:19,759 Speaker 6: most volatile landscape that has ever existed in this sport 2117 01:50:20,240 --> 01:50:22,920 Speaker 6: because of the transfer portal, and because of nil, and 2118 01:50:22,960 --> 01:50:25,479 Speaker 6: because of all this stuff we've talked about for months 2119 01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:26,960 Speaker 6: and you know, over a year now. 2120 01:50:28,560 --> 01:50:31,600 Speaker 2: I think they win handily today. I think I don't know. 2121 01:50:31,720 --> 01:50:34,320 Speaker 6: That game at Wisconsin in mid November sounds a little 2122 01:50:34,360 --> 01:50:36,800 Speaker 6: bit funky. It's before their bye week, it's the second 2123 01:50:36,880 --> 01:50:40,000 Speaker 6: to last game. Luke Fickles got that bunch playing well. 2124 01:50:40,240 --> 01:50:42,120 Speaker 6: I would not be shocked if Oregon dropped the game 2125 01:50:42,120 --> 01:50:43,680 Speaker 6: before the Big Ten title or if they lost the 2126 01:50:43,680 --> 01:50:46,400 Speaker 6: Big Ten title. What do you what would you It's 2127 01:50:46,400 --> 01:50:48,720 Speaker 6: a geeky question, but what do you think the percentage 2128 01:50:48,840 --> 01:50:51,720 Speaker 6: chance is? What would you would you set the the 2129 01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:54,559 Speaker 6: percentage chat often. 2130 01:50:54,520 --> 01:50:57,640 Speaker 2: They lose a game, Yeah, I would say it's a 2131 01:50:57,680 --> 01:50:58,120 Speaker 2: coin flip. 2132 01:50:58,479 --> 01:50:59,280 Speaker 4: Really, no kidding? 2133 01:50:59,360 --> 01:51:01,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, because because I mean, you know, their twenty 2134 01:51:01,040 --> 01:51:02,680 Speaker 6: one point favorite today. They won't be a twenty one 2135 01:51:02,680 --> 01:51:04,439 Speaker 6: point favorite at Michigan. They won't be a twenty one 2136 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:07,240 Speaker 6: point favorite at Wisconsin. Let's say they're a five ten 2137 01:51:07,320 --> 01:51:10,120 Speaker 6: percent chance to lose. Some of these games, you roll 2138 01:51:10,200 --> 01:51:13,280 Speaker 6: that dice five or six times, you never know, could 2139 01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:14,120 Speaker 6: come up snake eyes. 2140 01:51:14,479 --> 01:51:16,200 Speaker 4: By the way, how's the dice rolling? 2141 01:51:16,320 --> 01:51:16,479 Speaker 2: Ben? 2142 01:51:16,800 --> 01:51:18,800 Speaker 4: Recently?

This game starts in about ten minutes. Get 2177 01:53:11,760 --> 01:53:15,439 Speaker 2: it in now. Washington plus five and a half at Indiana. 2178 01:53:15,479 --> 01:53:17,200 Speaker 2: I know what you're saying. Indiana is the best team 2179 01:53:17,240 --> 01:53:18,240 Speaker 2: in college football right now. 2180 01:53:18,280 --> 01:53:18,560 Speaker 3: They're not. 2181 01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:21,599 Speaker 6: They're undefeated, they're having a great season, but they're starting 2182 01:53:21,680 --> 01:53:24,479 Speaker 6: quarterback is out for this game, and everyone's betting Indiana 2183 01:53:24,560 --> 01:53:26,120 Speaker 6: like they already know the final score. It's the most 2184 01:53:26,160 --> 01:53:29,559 Speaker 6: bet on team today over at bet MGM. I think 2185 01:53:29,720 --> 01:53:33,000 Speaker 6: Washington off the by with Jetfish, puts together a game plan, 2186 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:36,000 Speaker 6: Jonah Coleman, keep this game nice and snug, maybe even 2187 01:53:36,040 --> 01:53:37,960 Speaker 6: pull off the upset. But I'll take the Huskies today 2188 01:53:38,000 --> 01:53:41,240 Speaker 6: at Indiana sec action for my next two games. I 2189 01:53:41,400 --> 01:53:43,519 Speaker 6: like Alabama today. I don't care if Brady Cook, I 2190 01:53:43,600 --> 01:53:47,360 Speaker 6: don't care if Cook chef James Cook, whoever's playing quarterback 2191 01:53:47,400 --> 01:53:51,519 Speaker 6: today for Mizoo, does not matter. Alabama roles in this game. 2192 01:53:51,600 --> 01:53:54,160 Speaker 6: I think offensively, we're starting to see the cracks in 2193 01:53:54,200 --> 01:53:56,040 Speaker 6: the armor from Zoo's defense when they manage up in 2194 01:53:56,080 --> 01:53:59,040 Speaker 6: competition against those high level opponents. I'll take Alabama minus 2195 01:53:59,080 --> 01:54:01,599 Speaker 6: fifteen and a half ago Bazoo and give me Vandy 2196 01:54:01,880 --> 01:54:04,439 Speaker 6: plus seventeen and a half against Texas. They're gonna drag 2197 01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:07,920 Speaker 6: that Longharns defense through the mud. I don't know if 2198 01:54:07,920 --> 01:54:10,160 Speaker 6: they're gonna win this game outright, but man, playing bandy 2199 01:54:10,280 --> 01:54:12,519 Speaker 6: is a very uncomfortable position. So give me Dandy plus 2200 01:54:12,560 --> 01:54:14,720 Speaker 6: seventeen and a half, Bama minus fifteen and a half, 2201 01:54:14,880 --> 01:54:16,679 Speaker 6: Washington plus five and a half. 2202 01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:21,479 Speaker 5: Okay, so Navy verse Notre Dame at Medlife point total 2203 01:54:21,560 --> 01:54:22,800 Speaker 5: set of fifteen and a half. 2204 01:54:23,040 --> 01:54:24,040 Speaker 3: Give me the under. 2205 01:54:24,160 --> 01:54:27,400 Speaker 5: Two teams that like to run it, although maybe Notre 2206 01:54:27,520 --> 01:54:29,120 Speaker 5: Dame likes to run it even. 2207 01:54:28,960 --> 01:54:32,000 Speaker 3: More than Navy, which is saying something. Yeah, give me 2208 01:54:32,040 --> 01:54:32,680 Speaker 3: the under there. 2209 01:54:33,080 --> 01:54:37,160 Speaker 5: California hosting the Oregon State Beavers. I've had the opportunity 2210 01:54:37,200 --> 01:54:40,200 Speaker 5: to see both these teams live this year. I've been 2211 01:54:40,280 --> 01:54:42,800 Speaker 5: on the call for a Bear game in Berkeley, a 2212 01:54:42,880 --> 01:54:45,880 Speaker 5: Beafs game down in San Diego, cal Favored by ten 2213 01:54:45,960 --> 01:54:50,480 Speaker 5: and a half. Plainly, I think Cal is the better team. 2214 01:54:51,160 --> 01:54:54,480 Speaker 5: The record doesn't reflect it. I'll take the points with 2215 01:54:54,600 --> 01:55:00,480 Speaker 5: the Bears. Lastly, the Huskers in Bloomington total se fifty 2216 01:55:00,520 --> 01:55:03,080 Speaker 5: three and a half for Nebraska and Indiana with a 2217 01:55:03,120 --> 01:55:06,640 Speaker 5: Hoosiers starting QB banged up. Give me the under here 2218 01:55:06,880 --> 01:55:10,040 Speaker 5: as well. So Navy Notre Dame under the fifteen and 2219 01:55:10,080 --> 01:55:15,000 Speaker 5: a half Huskers against the Hoosiers fifty three and a half. 2220 01:55:15,120 --> 01:55:16,360 Speaker 3: Give me the under there as well. 2221 01:55:16,840 --> 01:55:20,000 Speaker 2: And give me cal plus or excuse me, cal minus 2222 01:55:20,160 --> 01:55:20,720 Speaker 2: ten and a half. 2223 01:55:21,360 --> 01:55:25,320 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna start off with this Texas game. I'm 2224 01:55:25,400 --> 01:55:28,840 Speaker 4: on this wide receiver, Matthew Golden, no Isaiah Bond today. 2225 01:55:29,040 --> 01:55:31,680 Speaker 4: Give me Matthew Golden over forty five and a half 2226 01:55:31,920 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 4: receiving yards in that matchup against Vandy. I also like 2227 01:55:38,440 --> 01:55:41,160 Speaker 4: I'll throw it in there. I'll go with Travis Hunter, 2228 01:55:41,720 --> 01:55:46,440 Speaker 4: fantastic player for Colorado. But even though coach Prime said 2229 01:55:46,480 --> 01:55:49,240 Speaker 4: little more pep in his step coming off the shoulder injury, 2230 01:55:49,920 --> 01:55:52,000 Speaker 4: it's still a high number. I'm gonna take under ninety 2231 01:55:52,040 --> 01:55:55,320 Speaker 4: two and a half receiving yards against Cincinnati. He was 2232 01:55:55,360 --> 01:55:59,560 Speaker 4: a decoy last game against Kansas State, so I still 2233 01:55:59,600 --> 01:56:02,000 Speaker 4: think he could play well and still be under it. 2234 01:56:02,160 --> 01:56:04,640 Speaker 4: So I'll take the under on that one. And these 2235 01:56:04,720 --> 01:56:10,200 Speaker 4: first half unders have been going to my liking here. Yeah, 2236 01:56:10,400 --> 01:56:14,560 Speaker 4: thank you, Dick. I just this will fly over after 2237 01:56:14,640 --> 01:56:18,960 Speaker 4: we said all those things, you know, But I'm gonna 2238 01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:23,320 Speaker 4: take Oklahoma State and Baylor. Give me under thirty two 2239 01:56:23,440 --> 01:56:26,360 Speaker 4: and a half in the first half of this game. 2240 01:56:26,720 --> 01:56:27,200 Speaker 3: Interesting. 2241 01:56:27,360 --> 01:56:31,120 Speaker 4: Interesting, Yeah, even though Oklahoma State gives up some chunk plays, 2242 01:56:31,760 --> 01:56:33,920 Speaker 4: they've been known to do that. I don't look at 2243 01:56:34,080 --> 01:56:37,840 Speaker 4: Baylor as this explosive offense, and if you're looking at 2244 01:56:37,920 --> 01:56:40,680 Speaker 4: someone that could potentially put the clamps down, even for 2245 01:56:40,800 --> 01:56:43,320 Speaker 4: a half or a quarter, could get us there on 2246 01:56:43,560 --> 01:56:46,720 Speaker 4: Ali Gordon. I think Baylor's defense could do that, and 2247 01:56:46,840 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 4: it's just been so goofy with Oklahoma State's passing offense 2248 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:54,480 Speaker 4: like musical chairs with quarterbacks. I like the under in 2249 01:56:54,520 --> 01:56:56,120 Speaker 4: the first half. Give me under thirty two and a 2250 01:56:56,160 --> 01:56:56,920 Speaker 4: half in that one. 2251 01:56:57,120 --> 01:56:59,760 Speaker 6: What's your process like for the first half unders, because 2252 01:56:59,800 --> 01:57:02,160 Speaker 6: I do I bet them more in the NBA and 2253 01:57:02,600 --> 01:57:04,480 Speaker 6: in college basketball than I would in college football. 2254 01:57:04,520 --> 01:57:05,800 Speaker 2: But I'm curious your process. 2255 01:57:06,360 --> 01:57:11,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, like if we're just talking college football, Yeah, really, 2256 01:57:12,280 --> 01:57:15,360 Speaker 4: a portion of it is can I see it being 2257 01:57:15,440 --> 01:57:16,680 Speaker 4: a slow first quarter? 2258 01:57:17,280 --> 01:57:17,400 Speaker 2: Right? 2259 01:57:17,520 --> 01:57:19,840 Speaker 4: Like if it has to be just fireworks in the 2260 01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:23,160 Speaker 4: second quarter to get there, I don't like that. I 2261 01:57:23,240 --> 01:57:26,120 Speaker 4: also consider like these running teams. I played Baylor a 2262 01:57:26,160 --> 01:57:29,480 Speaker 4: little bit earlier this year against air Force, and it 2263 01:57:29,680 --> 01:57:31,960 Speaker 4: was nowhere near that. It might have been three to 2264 01:57:32,040 --> 01:57:35,400 Speaker 4: nothing at halftime or something crazy like that. So it's like, 2265 01:57:35,560 --> 01:57:39,120 Speaker 4: is the clock moving? Does it maybe get off to 2266 01:57:39,240 --> 01:57:41,920 Speaker 4: this kind of like disjointed start and they have too 2267 01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:44,000 Speaker 4: much ground to make up to get there? That sort 2268 01:57:44,040 --> 01:57:45,880 Speaker 4: of thing is what I typically look at. 2269 01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:47,800 Speaker 6: Because to me, the NBA it makes a ton of 2270 01:57:47,880 --> 01:57:50,480 Speaker 6: sense because it's like the rotations in the early second quarter, 2271 01:57:50,600 --> 01:57:52,600 Speaker 6: you get this lull and in that might not always 2272 01:57:52,600 --> 01:57:55,360 Speaker 6: happen in the second half. College basketball is a little 2273 01:57:55,360 --> 01:57:59,560 Speaker 6: bit clunkier, but yeah, college football, I've never considered first half. 2274 01:57:59,440 --> 01:58:01,320 Speaker 2: Hunders in colle football, it was never something I've ever 2275 01:58:01,440 --> 01:58:02,160 Speaker 2: really looked at. 2276 01:58:02,680 --> 01:58:07,360 Speaker 4: Man, I got burned a first quarter under in rapid fire. 2277 01:58:07,560 --> 01:58:09,760 Speaker 4: I'll never forget. It was just a couple of weeks ago. 2278 01:58:09,880 --> 01:58:12,760 Speaker 4: It was Miami at Cal.
