Yeah, his pick is. 14 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,599 Speaker 3: To be a professor apparently at at Penn State University, 15 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 3: which there are some who will be a big time 16 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 3: fan of that as I fall into that category. It's 17 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 3: like Jonas who are are asking the alumni base if 18 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 3: they're upset that that is now watered down their degree, 19 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 3: that LaVar is teaching a class. 20 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I just you know, I'm all about, you know, 21 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 2: be fair and balanced on this show, man, and I 22 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: just think that it's important to uh to get to 23 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: the bottom of this stuff. And I also wonder, you 24 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 2: know this kind of you know, poison the well, so 25 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 2: to speak. That's all I mean.

I want to know 28 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 2: if that's why he's not here because he's preparing for 29 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 2: you know, putting together his lectures and all that. 30 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: I just want to know. I gotta know. I will 31 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: say this, and I think you would agree with this. 32 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 3: He has been incredibly enlightening in both of our lives 33 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: for the many times and conversations we've had, mostly off 34 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: the mic. That is correct. Yes, there's I'm sure there's 35 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 3: a lot of education that's going to be taking place. Yeah, 36 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 3: that is That is correct. 37 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 4: He is. 38 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 2: He's definitely definitely this.

You mentioned 51 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: this earlier you were at the Orange. 52 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: Bowl that yeah, yeah, take it away. Look, I'll say this, 53 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: and I mentioned it before. 54 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 3: I think one of my biggest takeaways and in regards 55 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 3: to the teams that are going to be competing for 56 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: a national championship that are still in it, and maybe 57 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 3: what went wrong for the teams that were in the 58 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 3: playoff that it didn't go well, I mean, first and 59 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 3: foremost to me, there's no, no, there's no more important 60 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 3: position in all sports in the quarterback, even though look again, 61 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 3: you're only out there, you know, let's say a third 62 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: of the time if you really break up the snap 63 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 3: counts with special teams of defense. However, I think even 64 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 3: more so at college football, and the reason is, I 65 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 3: just think there's not as much talent at the college 66 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 3: level on most teams. 67 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: So a quarterback you can play. 68 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: A high level, is able to raise that, you know, 69 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 3: level of everyone else at around him. And I think 70 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 3: you've seen that with Indiana this year and obviously Fernanda Mendoza. 71 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 3: I think you saw that a little bit of Dante 72 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 3: Moore this year, the quarterback for Oregon for Texas Tech. 73 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: At times he did with Baron Morton, but this was 74 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: not one of his best games. 75 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 3: You know, he really struggled. He went up against a 76 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 3: team that's got the ability to rush, got the ability 77 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: to cover, and that was very evident. I just I 78 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 3: think that was unfortunately one of those poor performances offensively 79 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 3: for Tech. That was not you know how they played 80 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 3: the entire season, and then you got to give Dan 81 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 3: Lanning his staff credit, their players credit, but also that's 82 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 3: just it's a bat out. It's a bad day, and 83 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: I thought Oregon in every capacity was the more physical team. 84 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: But there's also an element of I mean, just when 85 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 3: I watched Texas Tech this year, if you go back 86 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 3: Evento the Utah game, Barry Morton struggled. You know in 87 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 3: that game, he got injured. You know, missed a period 88 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 3: of time this year. And it's tough because you know 89 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 3: he is He's the type of player and kid that 90 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 3: wanted to always be the starting quarterback at Texas Tech. 91 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 3: Like this is him living out his dream and that 92 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 3: was his final game, and to go out that way, 93 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 3: it's never the way anyone. 94 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: Wants it to go. So it stinks for Texas Tech. 95 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 3: But I think that's a big step for the program 96 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 3: what they're able accomplish. Went in the Big Twelve, you know, 97 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 3: getting a bye, being a you know, number four seed 98 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 3: in the playoff, but now you've got a Dan Lanning 99 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 3: team an Oregon that Jonas, to me feels more like 100 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: Ohio State last year, right, Like, didn't play in the 101 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 3: Big Ten championship game, had that time to collect themselves, 102 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 3: got some momentum going in the first round, and now 103 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: another dominant performance in the quarterfinal, like squarely looking for revenge. 104 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: In that rematch versus Indiana. 105 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it looked like there's like it feels like 106 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: Dan Lanning the experience based on last year. And he's 107 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 2: been very vocal about just the scheduling. You know, look 108 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: at that this game should have been played at Loubic 109 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: I didn't want to go there, so on and so forth. 110 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 2: But he also talked afterwards about some ways to improve, 111 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 2: some ways to change, some things to get done in 112 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 2: the world of college football to help everybody. 113 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: What do you think of not having thing a first 114 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 3: round by this season. 115 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: I guess it works, right. 116 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 5: You know, I've been a proponent for games to be 117 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 5: happening much quicker for a long time. I think that's 118 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 5: best for college football. Again, I felt like this game, 119 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 5: the Orange Bowl first off, was unbelievable. I should have, 120 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 5: you know, really gave him kudos to the Orange Bowl 121 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 5: because it's been a great experience. But it's not the 122 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 5: same bowl experience anymore when you talk about playoffs, right, 123 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 5: you know, our guys didn't leave the hotel. They had 124 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 5: a mindset, you know that we can celebrate when this 125 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 5: thing's all over with, and they were really focused. 126 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: But the hospitality here was unbelievable. 127 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 5: But we're trying to serve two different purposes here, and 128 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 5: this is a playoff. Playoff, in my opinion, should have 129 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,119 Speaker 5: been played in Lubbock, Texas. 130 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: I said that before. 131 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 5: That's not because we wanted to go play in Lubbock. 132 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: I certainly didn't. 133 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 5: I'm glad we played here in Miami and it was 134 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 5: good prep for us. But you know, last year a 135 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 5: very similar situation for us. Feel like that game should 136 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 5: have been playing in Eugene, and there's a lot of 137 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 5: people who do playoffs. You know, I feel like the 138 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 5: playoffs have looked a certain way for a long time. 139 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 5: We're trying to serve two purposes here, and the amount 140 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,119 Speaker 5: of time in between games. Obviously it's tough for teams. 141 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 5: You know, we experienced it last year. 142 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: I mean, it makes a lot of sense. I also 143 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 2: would say this being at the Orange Bowl last year 144 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 2: and you were there yesterday, And this is not to 145 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,239 Speaker 2: give credit to you and LeVar and your alma maters, 146 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: but being at the Orange Bowl last year felt a 147 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: little bit more significant than maybe the one yesterday that. 148 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 3: Was again but different circumstances, right, I mean, you had 149 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 3: a night game and a semi final game where the winner. 150 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 3: I mean, it's after New Year. You're not dealing with 151 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 3: the holiday, especially a noon kick in Miami, which if 152 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 3: there's anywhere that parties and stays. 153 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: Out all night, it's Miami. 154 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 3: I mean, I can't tell you how many people I 155 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 3: met while I was there who were either still just 156 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 3: rolling in from the night before or had a quick turnaround. 157 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: And we're not happy about it. I mean, they're the dog. 158 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: But by the way, did you just do yourself a favor? 159 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: Like if you go to X type in Dan Lanning 160 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 2: and just find out what the first word is afterwards. 161 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,239 Speaker 2: All Right, No, Dan Lanning was not partying on South Beach. 162 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 2: He's just got a lot of energy. Okay, I'll put 163 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: it that way, Like people got to stop making reckless 164 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 2: accusations against Dan Landing. Enough's enough guys fired up on 165 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: the sidelines. 166 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: I'm not even going to touch that. But but I'll 167 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: just I'll say this. 168 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 3: I think it's tough for the quarterfinal games because we 169 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: saw this a bit a little bit last year too, 170 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: with some of the fan bases. 171 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean, there was a. 172 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 3: Much greater Texas Tech crowd that was present for that game, 173 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 3: and it was noticeable inside the stadium, maybe not so 174 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 3: much thout the course that game, just because of the 175 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: way the game went so low scoring in the first 176 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 3: half and the obviously the second half, Oregon distanced themselves. 177 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: But if your Texas Tech, like you. 178 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 3: Know, outside of the Big Twelve Championship, you didn't have 179 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 3: a first round game, so this was that moment to 180 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 3: travel to it you don't know if your team's gonna 181 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 3: win or not. For Oregon fans, I mean, they've you know, 182 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 3: now gone to you know, if you're probably going up 183 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 3: to Eugene. You know, that's a fan base that would 184 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: probably have to travel. There's fans up in Eugene, obviously, 185 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 3: but you know they've been coming from all over the 186 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 3: Pacific Northwest, maybe all over the country, you know, to 187 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 3: see that first round game. 188 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: And then you got to decide, am I going to 189 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: go to the Orange Bowl? 190 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 3: If I'm expecting Oregon, which they were a slight favorite 191 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 3: to win, I got to prepare for that next trip, 192 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 3: you know that in the next place we're going. And 193 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 3: I think that's the tough part about the playoff system 194 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 3: in general right now with a lot of the New 195 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 3: Year six games, is it stresses the fan bases. It 196 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 3: does stress some of the Bowl games, especially in the 197 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 3: quarterfinal round, to sell out some of those tickets. I mean, 198 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 3: geographically speaking, can we not take a gander or look 199 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 3: at where the teams are coming from, Like maybe we 200 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 3: don't need to just have set assignments, Like maybe we 201 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 3: sit there and say, would have it not been better 202 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: to have this game played in the Rose Bowl between 203 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: Texas Tech and Oregon, Like, wouldn't that be a little 204 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: better than having both teams have to travel across the country? 205 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: To South Florida. 206 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 3: Like again, I'm just throwing out ideas, because if a 207 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 3: tendance is your concern and the environments you're concerned, that's 208 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 3: always going to be an issue for the quarterfinal round. 209 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: In my opinion, I just think you're gonna have a 210 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 3: hard time doing it as the semi final round. Obviously 211 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 3: it gets close in for national championship, those aren't concerns. 212 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 3: What's crazy to me, though, is the fact that this 213 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 3: might be the only time on record in college football 214 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 3: history that you could get a team that plays for 215 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 3: the national championship in their home stadium. Now, you probably 216 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 3: have to go back to the days where, maybe even. 217 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: Before the Bulls, where you just. 218 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: Played your schedule and the associated press and teams kind 219 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 3: of claimed the national championship. 220 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: Like you have to go to those days. 221 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: So I'm not a historian, but I would imagine if 222 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 3: Miami makes a national championship game, they'll I have a 223 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: chance to do something that I don't know that will 224 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: ever be replicated outside of again, potentially the Hurricanes if 225 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 3: they can keep this thing on a run and Miami 226 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 3: ends up being a host sitting in the future. 227 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 2: Let me ask you something about Dan Lanning. So he 228 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: makes the comment that we're trying to do two things. 229 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 2: Is it possible to feed both beaces? 230 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: Like, is it possible to have this college football playoff 231 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 1: but still keep the traditions that are the bowl games 232 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: that we've all grown up with and watched for so 233 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: many years. Like it's a subtle. 234 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 2: Thing, but you know there was something too, you know, 235 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: Rose Bulls kicking off an hour earlier. Like it's a 236 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 2: subtle thing, but it's the sunset, Like there's there's the 237 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: I just wonder, is there a way to do both? 238 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: Or we just passed the point to where it is 239 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 2: what it is? 240 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 6: Man? 241 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: The playoffs going to change everything. I think the playoffs's 242 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: going to change everything, you know, because if. 243 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 3: We're being honest about the desire to expand further, you know, 244 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 3: you're you're going to probably get rid of conference championship games, 245 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 3: you know. I think there's been some ideas floated out 246 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 3: about twenty four teams, which to me is too many. 247 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't I don't think that makes as 248 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: much sense. I know, we've got one hundred and you 249 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: know thirty some teams in FBS. So if you look 250 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 3: at the percentage of teams actually that would then have 251 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: a chance to play for the national championship that would 252 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 3: probably more closely resemble you know, obviously not what we 253 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 3: have in the NFL, but you know what you have 254 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 3: in college basketball, so that there might be some there 255 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 3: might be some validity to that, but I would say 256 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 3: sixteen makes the most sense. 257 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: I don't really believe in buys. 258 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 3: I think all these programs should have the chance to 259 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 3: host a home playoff game, just having been to a 260 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,599 Speaker 3: number of them. It's just it's an incredible atmosphere and 261 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: it's a ton of fun from that point moving forward, though, 262 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 3: I don't know, I'm not sure how you know, you 263 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 3: change anything outside of you know, really seeing how those 264 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 3: first round games play out and basing where those teams 265 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 3: will go in the quarterfinal round. 266 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: Based on you know, maybe the you know, the. 267 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 3: Higher ranked team and the region, right like, that's that's 268 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,959 Speaker 3: the only way you could kind of go about doing that. 269 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 3: So create some flexibility to it, yeah, I mean, and 270 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 3: again that's tough to do when you're asking these teams, 271 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 3: depending on how much times in between those games. 272 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: To deal with that. 273 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 3: So that's that's the first issue. But going back to 274 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: the initial point, we talked about in the first hour, 275 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 3: the college football calendar is it's a problem. 276 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: It's never made sense to me. It's never syncd up. 277 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 3: I mean, thank god, you know, the powers that be 278 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 3: got to get and said we don't need two transfer 279 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 3: portal windows. 280 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: I have no idea why. 281 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 3: No other sports of my knowledge in college sports has 282 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 3: two windows. You only needed one. And we're moving closer, 283 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 3: obviously to doing the right things. But start the season 284 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 3: a week zero, start moving through faster to the actual 285 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: playoff after a conference championship weekend. If we're going to 286 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 3: keep those games and then end this thing on New 287 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 3: Year's or around New Year's I mean, help, you know, 288 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 3: play it somewhere in this vicinity, you know, after New Year. 289 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 3: But I don't think we need to extend it as 290 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 3: far out as we do into January. I don't think 291 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 3: you need to have to, you know, try to compete 292 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 3: with the NFL, which seems very intent on taking up 293 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 3: every Saturday possible now, which used to be sacred for 294 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 3: college football. I mean, like, let's do some things that 295 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: are in the best interest of the sport in the 296 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: long term, not just how we're trying to line our 297 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 3: pockets right now. 298 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: Cash grab. Everything's a cash grab. 299 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 2: And I also look back last year in the Bo 300 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 2: Prabula situation at State when he had to transfer and 301 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 2: everyone's like, oh, how could you leave you? I mean, 302 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: he's leaving his team and you know, he's entering the 303 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 2: portal and they're in the semi final and they've got 304 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: the Orange Bowl coming up. And James Franklin was the 305 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: first guy who defended him and said, look, man, he 306 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 2: doesn't want to do this. He like, he doesn't want 307 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: to leave his team. And it also puts him in 308 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 2: a It wasn't like perrule. It didn't appear in games either, 309 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: like he had some experience. If something would happened to 310 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: Drew Rowler last year, all of a sudden, you don't 311 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: have that guy because he's got to enter the portal 312 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 2: and ends up at Missouri. It just it feels like 313 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 2: this is a problem, and even the coaches who are 314 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 2: having to see these guys leave are stepping up going 315 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: they don't want to do this. Like everybody's on the 316 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 2: same page. It doesn't make any sense, and for some 317 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 2: reason it's still here. Well again, we have a professional model. 318 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 3: And I keep going back and forth because I remember 319 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 3: my first year out from playing calling both NFL and programs, 320 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 3: and I'd always have questions for Mike Proer and Dean Blandin. 321 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 3: I'll just say, why are these rules not the exact 322 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 3: same of both levels? 323 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 4: Right? 324 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, like what are we doing here? 325 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 3: Well, for example, one of the hardest things for quarterbacks 326 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 3: when they adapt from college football into the NFL is 327 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 3: dealing with where. 328 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: The hashes are. 329 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 3: Now, there's a number of reasons we can kind of 330 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 3: go into and all that. Obviously, you know, the wider 331 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 3: the hashes are, the easier. It makes those boundary throws. 332 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 3: So you know, high school, college, you know, have a 333 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 3: little wider hashes. 334 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: But also it's the manner in which you. 335 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 3: Spread the field, So the field feels more spread out 336 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 3: because the ball is placed on one side more so 337 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: than the other. But you get through the NFL, it's 338 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 3: basically in the middle because the hashes are so narrow. So, 339 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: you know, this transition for quarterbacks oftentimes pre snap post snap, 340 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 3: when you're trying to read whether it's a one high 341 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 3: safety meeting there's a safety in the middle of the 342 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 3: field or too high, it actually flips. You know, in 343 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 3: college football, when you see a safety near the hasher 344 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 3: thing and split safety coverage in the NFL when you 345 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 3: see a safety and or a hasher thing in post 346 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 3: high and I know that sounds like super elementary, and 347 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 3: people are like, what's so hard about that? 348 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: Well, when you're. 349 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 3: Doing it in the midst of everything else, you have 350 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: to take into account as a quarterback when you're yeah, 351 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 3: I have to make a decision in two and a 352 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 3: half seconds, it actually makes it a little harder than 353 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 3: you think when you've been trained a certain way for years. 354 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 3: So I just I mean the eighth official thing we 355 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 3: brought up with Dean Blandino earlier this week. 356 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: I have no idea. If they want extra eyes on. 357 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 3: The field, why they don't just bring on an extra 358 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 3: eighth official to help get the call right on the field. 359 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: It's like, well, that's a college football thing. 360 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, okay, you know you mentioned the 361 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: uniformed rules at both levels. I completely forgot if had this. 362 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 2: So I was watching with my son. There's a bowl game. 363 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 2: I forget which one it could, like the Dollar Tree Bowl, Like, 364 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 2: who cares. It was some bowl game and they were 365 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 2: doing a replay of a catch made by a guy 366 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 2: at the college level, and he got one foot in 367 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 2: and they you know, it was a completion, et cetera. 368 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 2: And my son says to me, and I swear to 369 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: God Papa, but both feet he didn't get both feet. 370 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: I was like, well, no, it's college. In college, you 371 00:15:58,600 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: only have to have one foot in. 372 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: Uh. 373 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: In the NFL, yet you have to have two feet in. 374 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 2: And he was like why. I was like, I don't know. 375 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: Nothing. I have no answers for you. 376 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 2: I don't know why there are certain rules that are 377 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 2: different at college and are in the NFL. I have 378 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: no idea. It seems like it would make the most 379 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 2: sense in the world. It's pretty easy. It's the same product. 380 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 2: Yet for some reason, there's two different ways to to 381 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 2: rule it and officiate it. 382 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 3: It's weird to have stripe on the ball, no stripes. 383 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 3: You can keep going with it. I mean, even the 384 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: way you can, you know, doctor the balls and how 385 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 3: they're providing the NFL risk college are completely different. 386 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of there's a lot of things. 387 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, this is the hill I'm 388 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: willing to die on. Why not? But come on, let's go. 389 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: I would just. 390 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 3: Generally say this, in the professional model, you don't have 391 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 3: free agencies start until the quote unquote new league year 392 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 3: defined as you know, in the collective bargaining agreement. 393 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: And I realized there's a lot. 394 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 3: Of legal just you know people, or I should say 395 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 3: attorneys are legal minds excuse me, that are smarter than I. 396 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: So there's some that don't feel like we'll ever get 397 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: a collective barn and agreement. 398 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: There's something that feel like we do. 399 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 3: Whether we do or we don't, I do think it 400 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 3: be it would be in our best interest to move 401 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 3: up the season, figure out a way of making the 402 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 3: transfer portal after the season is concluded, allow the players 403 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 3: coaches to focus on what we should all be focused 404 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:18,919 Speaker 3: on right now, and that's the teams that are going 405 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 3: to try to play for a championship and end a 406 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 3: story like there doesn't need to be any other debate 407 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 3: around you know why it should be any other way, 408 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 3: And if we want to use the academic calendar as 409 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 3: an excuse for it, we threw the academics out a 410 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 3: long time ago, or at least a few years ago. 411 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 3: Once you started involving in IL, once you started involving 412 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 3: the transfer portal, and zero limitations on the amount of 413 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 3: times they transfer everything else. The academic desires of these 414 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 3: student athletes went out the window. It's all about the money. 415 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 3: It's all about where I can go play and make money. 416 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 3: That's the concern for people, as long as they stay 417 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 3: eligible enough. These a lot of these players don't even 418 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 3: go to class anymore. They literally will never step foot 419 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 3: in a classroom all online. So that's that's the point 420 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 3: of which we're at now. And again I'm not trying 421 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 3: to judge it. I think it's the same bad long term, 422 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 3: but you know, for where we're at now, let's at 423 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 3: least clean up the calendar so we can prioritize the 424 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 3: things that matter most, and that should be winning a championship. 425 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 1: All right. 426 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 2: I got another uniform rule that we should implement. How 427 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 2: about this Major League Baseball aluminum bats. Let's go, all right, 428 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,479 Speaker 2: you can you can do it.

That option idea, just. 434 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 2: Letting you know, like there's there's a way that we 435 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: can help out every sport. If they would just keep thinking, 436 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: it would make things easier for everybody telling. 437 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 4: You, man, I kind of advocate for the illuminum bats too, personally, 438 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 4: like just pipe shots with aluminum bats. 439 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 3: That makes it exciting for me is you can have 440 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 3: a team up like twelve to four in the seventh 441 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 3: or eighth inning, and there's a legit. 442 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: It's they're gonna rip off ten runs in one. 443 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 2: No lead is safe, all right, everybody's wearing a bike 444 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 2: helmet or something in the Yeah, you're. 445 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 3: Gonna be bringing back cut guy's gonna be taking cross 446 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 3: shots driving like especially third base. 447 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.

There was some really poor choices made. 506 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: We will discuss that for you right here again a 507 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 2: little over twenty minutes from now on FSR. So, one 508 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 2: of the elements that we are going to bring to 509 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 2: the Dan Patrick Show coming up in hour three is 510 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: one Albert Breer. All right, Albert Breer, who you know 511 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: is an NFL insider, does a tremendous job, but he's 512 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,360 Speaker 2: also a regular guest on Two Pros and a Cup 513 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 2: of Joe with myself, Rady Quinn, and LeVar Arrington every 514 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 2: single Thursday. And one of the things about Albert Breer 515 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 2: is that he loves Ohio State. 516 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 1: I'm and are you sure he's coming on today? 517 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 2: That's the problem it's been. The communication has been a 518 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 2: little wishy washing with ab. 519 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: Is that Patty? Is that correct? 520 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 2: Like you've gotten, you know, real quick responses, but no confirmation. 521 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: That he's going to be on. 522 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, correct, Okay, he said sure and well sure and 523 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 4: never got back. 524 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: So we're assuming he's gonna be on. 525 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 2: But if he's not, just know it's because Ohio State 526 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 2: got their ass whooped over the weekend that was or 527 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 2: in the past couple of days. 528 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: Feels like a weekend anyways. 529 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 2: But New year's eve was not kind to the Ohio 530 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 2: State buck Eyes as they got smoked by Miami. 531 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,400 Speaker 1: Like that game didn't feel close. And here's the thing 532 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: about Albert. 533 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 3: It's not like he comes on our show and doesn't 534 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 3: do a tremendous job with NFL news, but also insane 535 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 3: that he does kind of peacock around talk not us about. 536 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: How good Ohio State is. 537 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 3: So I think the hard thing bring is he probably 538 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 3: never foresaw this potential performance happening. I mean, we've been 539 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 3: talked to him since the Big Ten Championship. I feel 540 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 3: like you're taking a lot of time off lately. 541 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 1: I think we have talked to him, but those conversations 542 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: anytime they veered towards the Big Ten title game, like 543 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: he tried to steer clear of those. Yeah, because we 544 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: did find out that he was in attendance for that. 545 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: That's right. 546 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 3: And he's the mush as I've said a thousand times, 547 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 3: I mean he is, he is the cancer to Whenever 548 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 3: Ohio State loses a game, you can look around and 549 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 3: look for Albert Breer. 550 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: Okay, that's been my experience. 551 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 3: He's usually there again, gallivanting around, you know, screaming. 552 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: No age, you know, but then it's it's usually bad 553 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: things happen. 554 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: So if I'm a Buckeyes fan, I'm probably telling Albert 555 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 3: maybe just watch him home from now on. 556 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that would make Michael save him money, 557 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: saved him heartache, and and he wouldn't have to bear 558 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: witness to what Ohio State has done to him so 559 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 2: many times before. It is kind of crazy, though, to 560 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 2: think that the Michigan game was their last win of 561 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: the season, like that was it so enjoy enjoy it? 562 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: Why you could but give Miami credit? Man, that was 563 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 2: it seemed like they were in total control early on, 564 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 2: and it just seemed like every bounce went the way 565 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 2: of the Hurricanes. Literally, like it seemed like every play. 566 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 2: It just felt like early on it was just not 567 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 2: going to be the day for Ryan Day and the 568 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 2: buck guys. 569 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 3: They've looked out of sync or out of sorts really 570 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 3: since that that Michigan game, and look some of it 571 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 3: again may have to do with the fact that their 572 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,919 Speaker 3: offensive coordinator, who Brian Hartlin, did a tremendous job this season. 573 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 3: There's a lot of us played in that Big Ten 574 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 3: Championship game. It was somewhat discussed and talked about in 575 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 3: Ohio State circles that you know, maybe that wasn't the 576 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 3: best idea to have him call. 577 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: Plays while he's the head coach now at. 578 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 3: South Florida and trying to construct a staff and talk 579 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 3: to them about recruiting and everything else that goes along 580 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 3: with that. I mean, trying to find a place to 581 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 3: live for your family. It's not easy for these guys 582 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 3: in their transition. So maybe some elements of that played 583 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 3: a factor. Ryan Day took over the play calling in 584 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 3: this particular matchup, and you know, again, it felt like 585 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 3: they just could never really find what they needed to. 586 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: But I think the thing that stood out. 587 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 3: To me the most was there was one glaringly obvious 588 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 3: weakness for Ohio States offense, and that was their inability 589 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 3: to consistently run the foot. It felt like when they 590 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 3: could this year, it was a bit of smoke and 591 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 3: mirrors or maybe on some lesser opponents, but the offensive 592 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 3: line was probably just average if we're being honest with ourselves, 593 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 3: and you went up against the two best edge rushers 594 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 3: in college football, you know, Ruben Baines junior Messador on 595 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 3: the other side, it came mesador like both those guys 596 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 3: would be playing on Sundays, and I think you got 597 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 3: a good dose of what they're capable of doing. And 598 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 3: I know a lot of people made a lot of 599 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 3: this season of them not having even more sack production, 600 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 3: but they were teams were very intent of. 601 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: Trying to eliminate them from games. 602 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 3: So I look at that match and I say, once 603 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 3: Ohio stay became one dimensional, which they kind of entered 604 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 3: the game that way, and they really struggled to be 605 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 3: able to run the football. 606 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: It was a wrap because that plays. 607 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 3: Right into the hands of what Miami wants to do, 608 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 3: and that's put you in a one dimensional mode, get 609 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 3: a lead and then try to have you come from 610 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 3: behind thrown against that secondary, which has been largely improved. 611 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 3: Before the season, they hit the transfer portal hard and 612 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,400 Speaker 3: it helped. They got healthy. They got a new offensive coordinator, 613 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 3: Corey Heatherman is in an incredible job coming from Minnesota. 614 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 3: But that's their style, and Mario Cristobo is one of 615 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 3: the best O line coaches in the country as their 616 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 3: head coach. Has a massive offensive line that was just 617 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 3: going to keep running the football and grinding away, grinding 618 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 3: the way Ohio stated had four possessions in the second half, 619 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 3: four that is it. 620 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: A lot of people think it's because the pace of 621 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: play that played. 622 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 3: A role in that too, but it's also because Miami 623 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 3: was kind of milking the clock in some of these 624 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 3: longer drives. So again, there's a bunch of different things 625 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,719 Speaker 3: you can point to. If you're a Buckeyes fan. The 626 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 3: reality is you just got beat by a better team. 627 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 3: I mean Miami right now. I think it's a team 628 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 3: that can win in a greater variety of ways in 629 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 3: Ohio State can Was this the biggest surprise. 630 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 2: For you of the weekend or why do I keep 631 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 2: saying the weekend for chrisis? 632 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Football play like? Was this 633 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: the biggest surprise for you? 634 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 3: In no, No, Honestly, I thought Texas Tech Oregon would 635 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 3: be a much tighter game. You know, as you know 636 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 3: we talked about this. I did think Oregon would win. 637 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 3: I didn't think it was going to look like that. 638 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 3: I thought there'd be a bit more fireworks credits to 639 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 3: both defenses. 640 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's again another team that. 641 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 3: Hit the transfer portal hard and they made their presence 642 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,360 Speaker 3: fell you know, Heights on one side, Bailey on the other. 643 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: Like those dudes can absolutely get after their entire defensive 644 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 3: front is one of the best in college football, so 645 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 3: I knew there'd be elements of that, but watching the 646 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 3: outcome of this Ohio State game, it felt more as 647 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,919 Speaker 3: if it was a team that you know, outside of 648 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 3: their identity and throwing the football as saying if they 649 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 3: couldn't protect him, he was going to struggle. I mean, 650 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 3: he hasn't been great when he's been under durest this 651 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 3: year versus the Bulitz is one thing. But when people 652 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 3: are pressing you and usually got you know, usually quarterbacks aren't, 653 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 3: they're going to struggle a bit. 654 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: But that was the only. 655 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 3: Thing they could hang their hat on this year. It 656 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 3: was the talented wide receiver. But again, there's a you 657 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 3: could go into, like really deep into this O O 658 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 3: Higo State because I think there's a lot of things 659 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 3: that you can question, like the personnel usage. They have 660 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 3: the best receivers in college football, and too often times 661 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 3: they're running twelve personnel with two tight end sets. And 662 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 3: that's not taking anything away from Max Claire, for example, 663 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 3: he's one of the better tight ends, but you only 664 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: have one football and it's hard to get the football 665 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 3: around all these different playmakers. And the other thing is 666 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 3: that I thought was the most surprising thing because Ohio 667 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 3: States been really good at this typically is the receivers 668 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 3: have been some of their best blocking on the perimeter. 669 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 3: There was a reverse they ran, Carnell Tate whiffed and 670 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 3: Jeremi Smith got tackled for a minimal gain if at 671 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 3: all the pick six that was on Jeremi Smith, that 672 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 3: was his man Scott ripped through their identified it. Jeremi 673 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 3: I should have been should have been blocking him, and 674 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 3: instead it's a touchdown going back the other way. So, 675 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 3: you know, the blocking on the perimeter, even something that 676 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 3: you know Brian Hartline's do an incredible job with his 677 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,959 Speaker 3: receivers in the past, like that was even a bit surprising. 678 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 3: You know, the field goal kicking up until the Big 679 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 3: Ten Championship game, maybe in sam in Michigan, some of 680 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 3: the other spots. I didn't think it was overly shaky 681 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 3: until the last you know, few games, but all of 682 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 3: a sudden that became a liability for them. So it 683 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 3: just this is just not an Ohio State team like 684 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 3: we saw last year that when they got into the playoff, 685 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 3: they lit the world on fire and they played like 686 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 3: the team they were capable of I don't know that 687 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 3: this Ohio State team ever really played up to their 688 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 3: capability this entire year. 689 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 2: I mean it does put to uh put to test, 690 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 2: you know, beat Michigan or win a national title. You know, 691 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: there is that So I mean, look, it's not. 692 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: The question is is Ryan Day on the hot seat? 693 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 6: Then? 694 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 3: Right, because that's usually what people tend to do after 695 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 3: a while state they tend to be a bit hyperball, 696 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 3: like they tend to overreact about uh some of these 697 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 3: some of these things. 698 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: But is that is that the question you're trying to ask? 699 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 4: Now? 700 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 3: I mean it I think I think if someone says, yes, 701 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 3: you're a moron, all right, that's just what I'd say. 702 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 3: He's an unbelievable coach and you're a moron if you 703 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 3: think Ryan Day's on the hot seat. 704 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 2: He's been fantastic man. Like I like the conversation about 705 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 2: him being on the hot seat, Like, I think it 706 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 2: illustrated two things. One people are insane. Two like that 707 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 2: rivalry is real. And I've I've said this, I thought 708 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 2: I understood it. And then the longer I did the 709 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 2: show and the conversation in having discussions with you being 710 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: from you know, Columbus, Dublin area. Like the longer I 711 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 2: did the show, either more I realize, oh no, this 712 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 2: is like a real thing, like it's it's that, or 713 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 2: you're looked at differently and they don't care what you 714 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 2: do outside of that, You're just looked at differently. So 715 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: I do wonder that it would be interesting to get 716 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: Albert Breer's thoughts if he doesn't answer his phone. I 717 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: do wonder if, now, upon further review, if you were 718 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 2: to tell Ohio State fans in the moment in ann Arbor, 719 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 2: by the way, last one of the season for you 720 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 2: right now, would you take that or would you rather 721 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 2: still be playing in the semi final and getting ready 722 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: to try and win another national championship, Because that's it's 723 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 2: just a wild, wild turn of events for the Ohio 724 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 2: State buck guys. 725 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: But you know events. 726 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 3: But I do think we're not giving credits to Miami 727 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 3: enough here too. And really, Maria crystal Ball, who you know, 728 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 3: in the past, I think has had his moments where 729 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 3: there's been some game management issues. That was obviously not 730 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 3: a case in this game. If you look at the 731 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,239 Speaker 3: build up from twenty twenty two just to where they 732 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 3: are now, I mean every single year have gotten better 733 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 3: and taken that next step, and now we find them 734 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 3: knocking on the door. The way they're playing right now 735 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 3: is the best team maybe in college football. So a 736 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 3: lot of credit goes to him, Shannon Dawson there office coordinator. 737 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 3: He does an incredible job of finding ways of getting 738 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 3: his playmaker of the football. Malachi Tony's a stud as 739 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 3: a freshman, but they dial up unique ways of getting. 740 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: In the ball. 741 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 3: And I think probably the thing that's come alive the 742 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 3: most and has been most revealing of who this team is. 743 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 3: And if you're talking about the Hurricanes, and it really 744 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 3: defines who their coaches. They've been a tough, physical team 745 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 3: to the line of scrimmage, both sides of the ball. 746 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 3: They were laying the hammer against the Yeah A State, 747 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 3: but even then, just in the trenches like that, that's 748 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 3: what wins, and that's really where you know. Murray Crystobol 749 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 3: has has, I think, to me, define this team the most. 750 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 3: He knows that better than anyone else, being you know, 751 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 3: a whole lineman, and so he deserves a ton of 752 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 3: credit man, because he's gotten some criticism. This is a 753 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 3: team that you could have made a case last year 754 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 3: maybe should have. 755 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: Been in the playoff. If they did, who knows, you know, 756 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: maybe they would have went on a run like this. 757 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 3: I think they're a much better team this year, in 758 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 3: particular on defense and in part because of the additions 759 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 3: they made through the portal. 760 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: But this is a team that I look at them. 761 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 3: And just say they right now, and I don't know 762 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 3: if they're the betting odds on favorite to win it, 763 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 3: that would be a team I'd be looking at. The 764 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 3: only concern I have, and this goes back to, like 765 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 3: the two things that I think are very apparent so 766 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 3: far in the playoff is the quarterback play. You've got 767 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 3: to obviously have a guy who could be a dude 768 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 3: in the moments when he needs to and make plays 769 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 3: and take care of the football and not become a disaster. 770 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 3: I thought Beck did an unbelievable job of his legs, 771 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 3: you know, for a guy who's not known as a 772 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 3: dual threat quarterback. He took off, he Randy Scramble, He 773 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 3: did what he could to get what he could, and 774 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 3: he really didn't put the game in Harm's way too much. 775 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 3: But that was you know that that style will this 776 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 3: team with way Mark Fletcher's running the football right now, 777 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: the way the old line's playing, that could win them 778 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 3: a national championship. 779 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 2: So if you have to guess the odds national championship, 780 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 2: who's gonna win it all? Guess the odds right now, 781 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 2: what would it be? 782 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: I think they're probably like plus two hundred. 783 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 3: I think Indiana's probably the favorite, like minus one fifty 784 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 3: plus one thirty five for the Hoosiers. 785 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 2: Okay, and you've got Oregon in Miami sitting at plus 786 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 2: three hundred, so three to one and one three, all right, 787 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: that's if I was gonna think we're gonna be tight 788 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 2: in there too, I'll be curious. And then and then 789 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 2: Old misses this wildcard of the way they're playing. I 790 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 2: think there's probably just some concern about the coaching situation. 791 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: But they've got the capability. 792 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 3: The way that offense can score, man, that is that's 793 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 3: something something special. 794 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 2: They're sitting at plus five fifty, so one hundred bucks 795 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 2: will win n five fifty and uh, you know who mean, hey, 796 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 2: if you're laying Kiffin, just let them keep rolling, man, 797 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 2: keep getting paid. Every time they win, you get you 798 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: get a little bit of a check. 799 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 3: So what's what's wild about Miami is think about the 800 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 3: fact that they could win a national championship, and by 801 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 3: the way, in their home stadium, which would be probably 802 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 3: the first ever in college football history, you know, finishing 803 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 3: off a season winning a national championship in your stadium, 804 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 3: but also before they've won an a CEC championship. 805 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 6: Think about that. I mean, what's the last team that's 806 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 6: done that. I don't Yeah, that's it is the Uh yeah, 807 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 6: it's as well as that sounds. They still have not 808 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 6: won an ACC championship. And look, I'm not here to 809 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 6: go back over what I said before. 810 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,879 Speaker 1: By the way, Like that's what I'm saying. 811 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 3: Like the fact that the ACCS tie breaking scenario didn't 812 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 3: put Miami in that game is bonkers, and that's for 813 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 3: another day.

We did our Fox 849 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,240 Speaker 2: Sports Radio bracket challenge for the college football Playoff. 850 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:30,720 Speaker 1: We do it for the NCAA tournament. 851 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 2: Usually doesn't end up well either, but I took a 852 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 2: bold approach, said, you know what, I'm going to go 853 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 2: outside the box here, all right. What I'm going to 854 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: do is I'm going to go Georgia beating Texas Tech, 855 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 2: and that'll do it. That's a wrap on my college 856 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:51,720 Speaker 2: football playoffs. 857 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: Buddy. 858 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I know iut stay Georgia, so I'm 859 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 3: out as well. 860 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if it's been that's 861 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 2: that's a rep. It's just it's gone. So that's that's 862 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 2: that's going to do it. Patty, do we have the up? 863 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 2: Is there any update on these standings of where anybody's at, 864 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 2: because I don't even think LeVar is still in contention. 865 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 4: So they haven't updated like everybody's points scoring yet. That's 866 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 4: still early into this. But I do have sticks sticks 867 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 4: picks here if you want to go through it. What 868 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 4: he picked for the final yeah, what was sticks picks 869 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 4: six picks? Well, he went with his final two in 870 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 4: the championship was Oregon versus. 871 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: Georgia, and he took Georgia winning. 872 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 4: One. 873 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: That's still in the. 874 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 3: We're both eliminated, so it's not even like you can 875 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 3: say anything. 876 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 4: I had Indiana versus Ohio State with Ohio State losing, 877 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 4: so I mean, that's all, folks, but at least got 878 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 4: one in there. 879 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: Maybe. I mean, by the way, maybe. 880 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 2: For what it's worth, one of the teams in my 881 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 2: final didn't even score, so that's they're like, that's as 882 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 2: bad as it can I mean, there's there's not much 883 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 2: nail where she could do there. So yeah, do you 884 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 2: have any issue with Dan Lanning scoring a touchdown late? 885 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:08,439 Speaker 1: No? 886 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 3: Actually I had more of an issue with in a 887 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 3: game versus a good team like Texas Tech. I don't know, 888 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 3: he was so adamant about not kicking field goals and 889 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 3: trying to go for everything and score touchdowns. Look, maybe 890 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 3: he felt like there's something going on there and he 891 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,760 Speaker 3: has got a better insight than I, but I actually 892 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 3: thought there's a few opportunities he probably just should have 893 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 3: taken the field goal, especially the way the defense was playing, 894 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 3: you know, take the points, you know, kick off, keep 895 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 3: them back deep, you know, don't necessarily try to go 896 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 3: for it and not get it. 897 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,879 Speaker 1: But it all worked out in the end, so there's 898 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: no real complaint there. 899 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 3: But yeah, there probably wasn't a need to necessarily score 900 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 3: the touchdown. But hey man, he's he doesn't want to 901 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 3: take his foot off the gas pedal, and I can 902 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 3: understand that. 903 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: He's trying to get him a little bit of a rhythm, 904 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 1: you know, try and get him get him in sync there. 905 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: And but you know, do you knows. 906 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 3: Maybe Phil Knight called down because those are two of 907 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 3: the most expensive rosters in college football based on time. 908 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: Phil Knight's backing Cody Campbell. I'm not him, me and 909 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 1: you for field goals. 910 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was maybe like, hey, let me tell you something. 911 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 3: You take down these Red Raiders and this Cody Campbell character. 912 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: Okay, I did think that it was It was interesting. 913 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 2: One of the things that I noticed was after the 914 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: Georgia Ole miss game, like when they were walking out, 915 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 2: like however that game was gonna end, you know, and 916 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 2: they finally figured it out. But you did see like 917 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 2: Kirby Smart seemed like he was genuinely happy for Pee 918 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 2: Goulding because I think he probably recognizes they've been put 919 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 2: in a crap spot by Lane Kiffen, and it did 920 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 2: it did feel and even like Joey maguire was saying, 921 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 2: like he's he loves Dan Lanning, He's happy for the program, 922 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 2: so he had no issue. But it did feel like 923 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 2: those two coaches sort of recognize better team one good 924 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 2: for them, but there was no animosity. And especially with 925 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 2: the Kirby Smart stuff, I thought was interesting because I 926 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 2: think he, like Mike tom that did this in the 927 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 2: NFL where he sort of spoke up in defense of 928 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 2: Kevin Stefanski when they when they traded Joe Flacco and 929 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 2: nobody can figure out why you would do that. It 930 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 2: was kind of nice to see coaches have their coaches 931 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 2: back and understand you've been put in a difficult spot, 932 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 2: and he and Kirby Smart was happy for Pe Golding 933 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 2: in that situation. I'll say this about Kirby Smart. He 934 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 2: is to me one of the few faces of college 935 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 2: football in regards to the influence that he has, the 936 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 2: voice that he has, and given his success, you know, 937 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: being a two time national champion and what he's done 938 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: you know, being the SEC so far really kind of 939 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 2: carrying the flag for them. 940 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: And I think he should speak up more. 941 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 3: I think what Dan Lanning said and how open he 942 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 3: was with some of his thoughts around what's happening right 943 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 3: now in college football. It's desperately needed, and Kirby Smart 944 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 3: needs to do the same thing, like he needs to 945 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 3: stand up to try to find a way of all 946 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,399 Speaker 3: the all the powerful, you know, minds that be put 947 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 3: it together to try to figure out a solution to 948 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 3: some what we're dealing with. 949 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 2: By the way, moment of truth time, we're going to 950 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 2: find out whether or not Albert Breer is still wearing it. 951 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 2: From the Ohio State loss Ab joins you next here, 952 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 2: It's Brady Quinn, It's Jonas Knox.
