Speaker 1: I'm forty.

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 2: I've heard so many players say, well, I want to

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 2: be happy. You want to be happy for a day?

5

Speaker 2: And then and tie.

9
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,159
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the solid verbol boys and girls. My

10
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: name is Ty Hildenbrand. That guy over there, as always

11
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: in Chicago Land, the one, the only, the incomparable Dan Rubinstein, sir, whooooo,

12
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: how are you?

13
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: I'm good? Yesterday was perfect. We're recording this at Sunday Sunday,

14
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,880
Speaker 2: what a little after ten am Eastern Time. Obviously, subscribers

15
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: at Verballers dot com will have access to it before

16
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 2: anybody else Sunday afternoon Eastern time. Yesterday was perfect. Yesterday

17
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 2: was a perfect day of college football. Between the shootouts,

18
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: the close calls, the comebacks, the emotions, the crowds, everything,

19
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: the noise, the lack of having Oregon's passing game in

20
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: my life. I could not have asked for a better

21
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: Week six. It was everything I could have hoped for.

22
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 2: And it almost like you know how they say that

23
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 2: when quarterbacks get very comfortable, the game slows down for them, right,

24
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 2: that everything slows yesterday slowed down for me. I was

25
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: able to just sit in ridiculous moments and say, Fiat,

26
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: this is the best. It's just the best.

27
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: It really was. There were twenty eight FBS teams that

28
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: were on by which meant fourteen fewer games for you

29
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: and I to talk about it. Sure as hell didn't

30
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: feel it of the games that were played, just a

31
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,919
Speaker 1: lot of really close games that came down to the wire.

32
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: We had upsets, We had new storylines even if there

33
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: weren't upsets that we're going to dive into here over

34
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: the next hour or so. We've got an incredible batch

35
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: of Week six reverbs that our boy Dylan cut together

36
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: deep into the night using a different than usual because

37
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,360

00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: at the top where we always do? Why don't we

00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 2: Did use did he use super Mario Maker? Now I'm

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 2: dying to know what he used to edit sounds last second.

53
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to give you about four minutes to think

54
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: about it and then we'll talk it through. If you're

Speaker 2: Norman, Oklahoma, the one place in the country that can

00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,920

00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 4: calling this game the Red Rivers.

72
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 5: I'm not in the student section, but I think I

73
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 5: want Caleb Williams Boomer Stoner Baby.

74
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: Got the Golden hat.

75
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 5: I just want to say that Matt and Brown is

76
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 5: zero to eleven against the mighty seminoles of Florida State

77
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,799
Speaker 5: godles Quo.

78
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 4: Teams four quarterbacks. This is not going to get well.

79
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 4: Go Hokies.

80
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 5: Someone called East Atlantic Knistian Dealership because Kenneth Walker to

81
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 5: the third maybe just maybe needs a ride to the

82
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 5: Heisman House. Go Green, Go White, Go.

83
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 4: Michigan State, who's contingency planning was ah.

84
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 3: Blockbuster video when faced with the availability of streaming or

85
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 3: Penn State when faced with the lack of availability of

86
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: Sharks Cortford the current University of Iowa students, former student

87
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 3: at Penn State University, and.

88
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 4: All I have to say is my oh, shad boy,

89
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 4: that's a stinky Iowa offense. Just smells pretty nice on

90
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 4: my game winning touchdown, Pat huh. I guess what I'm

91
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 4: saying is thanks for locking that one upside go Hank.

92
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 2: It's about that time for many parents to talk to

93
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 2: their children about an undefeated Iowa.

94
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 3: Dan.

95
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: As a one parent to another, I'm hoping you can

96
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: help me Sork for my three kids about non defeated Iowa.

97
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 3: The time has come.

98
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 1: It's gone to talk to your kids about an undefeated Wake.

99
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 4: Forth, y'all thought I was gonna say Iowa.

100
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 5: Nothing like being a South Carolina fan. Your punter throws

101
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 5: a bake punt for a touchdown and you get six sacks,

102
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 5: But when your defensive end throws an interception and you're

103
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 5: down twenty eight to nothing after the first quarter, pretty

104
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 5: much in your Thursday previews. As each Saturday, we've blown

105
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 5: out our opponents, so please.

106
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 4: Continue leaving us out of the PB. Keep blowing out

107
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 4: our opponents.

108
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: Go vog.

109
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 4: Don't look now.

110
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: And it only took one hundred and five years, but

111
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: my beloved you call you won a football game in

112
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:09,679
Speaker 1: Los Angeles.

113
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 4: Georgia in their last seventeen games against Auburn is fourteen

114
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 4: and three.

115
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 5: Georgia in their last seventeen games against Vanderbilt is fourteen

116
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 5: and three. It is time to show the world that

117
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 5: a Mississippi Saturday night is even hotter than an Urban

118
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 5: Myers Sunday Night.

119
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 3: You'll let us be bat baby the Facto SEC East

120
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 3: Championship next week, let's go pat.

121
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 5: I hear Penn stage looking for a quarterback. I think

122
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 5: there's one here at UK Will Levis He's got five

123
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 5: fellow touchdowns at least, I don't know.

124
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: It's kind of hard to keep track.

125
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 4: Hi, so happy Michigan won.

126
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 5: Margaret from Michigan, Misschief and wolver This is Jacob and

127
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 5: Sarah from Denver. Did he and him just win our clunkers?

128
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 5: Gig him an egg? The only thing that comes to

129
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 5: is this out of the Revel Belt after they.

130
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 4: Destroyed the death Star.

131
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: Apparently the secret ingredients beating Alabama is just pick up

132
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: a passer and.

133
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 4: Just hey guys, it's me Scott Frost. I just I

134
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 4: just think they should let us win. It's just up there.

135
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 4: I mean, I know we didn't score more points, but

136
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 4: we told everyone we were going to win this one.

137
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: All right. Wow, what a batch of body, batch of reverbs.

138
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: Kudos again to our guide Dylan for cutting that together

139
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: with audacity.

140
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 2: Dan Audacity not a sponsor could be sponsor Audacity? Actually

141
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 2: probably not. I'm definitely not for you. Audacity is an

142
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 2: awesome way. It's very democratic. If you want to learn

143
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: how to edit audio, if you want to produce a

144
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 2: podcast and you want to dip your toes in the water,

145
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 2: it's an awesome first step.

146
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll give you that.

147
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 2: It'll help you learn.

148
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: That's fine, that's fine, I'll give you that.

149
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 2: Oh, we've all been there, you've edited an audacity. Come on,

150
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: we've got a lot to get to.

154
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: thirty eight. I cannot freaking believe it. I cannot freaking

155
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: believe that this game went the way it did. We

156
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: talked all week I did specifically about how A and

157
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: M was broken. This is a team that a couple

158
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: of weeks ago beat Colorado by what three points or something?

159
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 2: They lost to Mississippi State.

160
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, the eked one out. They've lost their last two.

161
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: They've looked genuinely broken. On offense, people were starting to

162
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: wonder about Jimbo and a big contract, and you said,

163
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,079
Speaker 1: he's starting to use some of the same excuses that

164
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: he did at Florida State, just like bad vibrations across

165
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 1: the board, and then this, and then this. Alabama had

166
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:53,319
Speaker 1: won one hundred straight games against unranked opponents. They went

167
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: into this game an eighteen point favorite. It was in

168
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: Kyle Field, very loud Kyle Field that night. Not an

169
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: easy place to play, stretch of the imagination. But I

170
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: don't know if anybody saw this kind of performance coming

171
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: from A and M. Surely you might have expected a

172
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: good A and M defense to step up and cover

173
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: the point spread. But man, after what we have seen

174
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: the last month of A and M football, there was

175
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: no way, no how they were going to pull an upset.

176
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: Here to your point, this is what we got in

177
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: week six. This is part of why it was perfect.

178
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: Not for Alabama fans, mind you, for sure, but for

179
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: college football everyone else in the college football ether. This

180
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: is why you're a fan. Upsets like this the college

181
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: football ether.

182
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 2: Up above the land. Yeah, it was incredible. It was

183
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: absolutely incredible. And this is Texas A and M's backup quarterback.

184
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: And you know we can start at the end and

185
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 2: come back. The fact that he was able to make

186
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: his way back to the field after taking that hit

187
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 2: as he threw a nothing short of a dime ten

188
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 2: out of ten, A plus ball to a specific point

189
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 2: in the end zone to tie the game. They were

190
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 2: down thirty eight to thirty one. I believe as he's

191
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: getting hit low to complete that pass for the touchdown.

192
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,599
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a complete performance in that A

193
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 2: and M made plays in all three phases.

194
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 5: Right.

195
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: They overwhelmed the Alabama offensive line, which looks out of sorts,

196
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 2: both in the way that they're coached. You know, I

197
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 2: saw I think it was Richard Johnson showing like weird

198
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 2: slide protections away from the blitz. There were moments like that.

199
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 2: Evan Neil is incredible. But yeah, a down game for

200
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 2: Alabama's offensive line, a down game for just finishing drives.

201
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 2: We thought, we saw that Bryce Young bad interception in

202
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 2: the end zone, a bad game for referees at certain points.

203
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: Be it with Dicey targeting, be it with Evan Neil

204
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 2: moving as they throw it to a white as Bryce

205
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 2: Young throws it to a wide open Jamison Williams uncovered

206
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: on the other side of the field. Just an incredible

207
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: experience this game. But yeah, I think it's taking your

208
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 2: hat off to what A and M was able to

209
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 2: accomplish what in the return game with Devin a chain

210
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 2: in the passing game Isaiah Spiller both carrying the ball

211
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 2: and catching the ball out of the backfield like It

212
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: was just an unbelievable night in College Station, one that

213
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 2: neither one of us saw coming. As you mentioned on

214
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 2: this level, and I think underscores the point that it

215
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 2: takes time for backup quarterbacks. Sometimes it takes time to

216
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 2: come through and gut comfortable. We saw, we saw moments

217
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 2: in previous games of Zach Calzada making plays, but through

218
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: it until last night, and even at times last night

219
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 2: understandably against Alabama, he looked uncomfortable. He looked unprepared, He

220
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 2: looked unable to rise to the moment.

221
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: Look Zach Calzada last night was when verbal kint turned

222
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: into kaiser soose. That's how I felt it came out

223
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: of nowhere. You're right, we saw hints of it. Yeah,

224
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: we knew enough that he was not to Kwan Roberson

225
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: all right.

226
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: We knew he was a service not a roverson thing.

227
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: It's across the sport. Backup quarterbacks thrust it into action again.

228
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 2: It's good team. It's tough. It's just tough. It is tough.

229
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: It is especially tough. Yeah, we knew that he was serviceable,

230
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: he was not a total disaster. But last night, I mean,

231
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: this is far and away better than anything we could

232
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: have expected. Two to eighty five, three touchdowns, one interception.

233
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: He constantly stood tall in the pocket, He was very

234
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: accurate with the ball. He did not seem overwhelmed by

235
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: the moment, and more often than not, that is what

236
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: you see when you put a backup in a situation. Now,

237
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: he's had a few weeks to kind of find his

238
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: way to your point. But even still, man like, that's

239
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: a big spot. That's a big spot to be And

240
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: I don't care if you're the starter, if you're the backup.

241
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: We'll talk about Spencer Ratler in a few minutes. Spencer

242
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: Ratler came into the year one of the guys I

243
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 1: think unanimously picked to be the Heisman front runner. You

244
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: could argue at points in time the moment was too

245
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,719
Speaker 1: big for him in that Texas game.

246
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: I mean, the moment might be twenty twenty one. As

247
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 2: a whole, he has not had a nominal year. That's

248
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: and it's not necessarily a majority on him.

249
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: No, no, no, right, but but but That's that's the point, right,

250
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, what Zach Calzada did, I'm now officially entrenched,

251
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: officially on board, I should say, with the Kalzada Armada,

252
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: as we sail the high seas of the sec A

253
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 1: and M looked great. Good for them, big win. Defense

254
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: did enough to get some key stops and and create

255
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 1: some key turnovers when they had to. Bryce Young for

256
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: his part on the Alabama side, still looks superb. The

257
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: Alabama offense just committed a few too many mistakes here

258
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: and there, and you know, not punching it into the

259
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 1: end zone and spots comes back to bite you as

260
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: it always does. But just a great game. Wow, what

261
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: a win, What a win freak?

262
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 2: I mean, and more on on Alabama as well. So

263
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 2: you lose a dB early. You have Brian Robinson running

264
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 2: completely wild, just incredibly impressive, Jamison Williams making play after

265
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 2: play like the game was there for Alabama. They lost

266
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 2: in the moments they lost situationally as you mentioned giving up.

267
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 2: I mean, they score the special teams touchdown falling on

268
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 2: the blocked punt, but then they give up the long

269
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 2: kick return to Devin A Chang like the game was

270
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 2: there and it was an uncharacteristically unfocused performance from Alabama

271
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: in a big spot.

272
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, A and M wins.

273
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: Credit to A and M.

274
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: A and M wins forty one thirty eight the upset

275
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: of the year in Week six. We've got a long

276
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: ways to go. My sense is that there will be

277
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: many more upsets to follow. It is just going to

278
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: be that kind of year, and I'm thrilled to be

279
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: part of it. Frankly, I'm thrilled to be part of it.

280
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: It makes me very, very happy to be a fan

281
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: of college football, and especially doing this podcast with you

282
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: on a tri weekly basis.

283
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, I mean we've seen what Clemson loose to,

284
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 2: NC State, Ohio State lose to Oregon, Alabama lose to

285
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: A and M. Like, it's all over the sport that

286
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 2: we're just like kind not out out of nowhere, but

287
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: on a certain level Anthony Brown Oregon on a certain level,

288
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 2: like Devin Leary, Ency State, Zach kyl Zada Texas, A

289
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 2: and M like it's it's unexpected at the very least

290
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 2: and just wild and chaotic at best.

291
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Penn State Iowa game. Yep Iowa

292
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: wins by a twenty three to twenty score to our

293
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: caller who's trying to incite me, I hate to inform

294
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: you that the Iowa offense is still pretty bad.

295
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: First it is.

296
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: It's still very bad. But yes, they made a couple

297
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: big plays. Spencer Peatrice threw a nice pass on that

298
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: game winning touchdown pass. To give you some context here

299
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: if you didn't watch the game, Penn State jumped out

300
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: to a quick fourteen to three lead and then seventeen

301
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: to three early in the second quarter. If I'm being

302
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: totally honest here, ye, Shan Clifford doesn't get hurt, Penn

303
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: State probably runs away with it. It was it felt

304
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: like it had that kind of momentum. Not to say

305
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: Iowa wouldn't have come back a little bit, but it

306
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: just felt like Iowa was outclassed when Sean Clifford was

307
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: in there. But the problems did start for Penn State

308
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: once Clifford went down. Now, we haven't gotten official word

309
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: as to what went down with them. Some folks that

310
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: maybe it's a shoulder, maybe it's a back, maybe it's ribs.

311
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: He was on the sideline, he was in street clothes.

312
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: We did have that one shot of him walking out

313
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 1: kind of holding his back, So I'm assuming a back

314
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: or rib thing based on the hit that we saw

315
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: preceding him leaving the field. We will have to definitely

316
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: wait and see what happens with his status now moving forward,

317
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: because that the Kwan Roberson experience was just not the answer.

318
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: I don't want to be too hard on the kid.

319
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: He was a backup. He was stepping into a really

320
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: big spot. It was so bad that he couldn't even

321
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: snap the ball. It was that bad. There were eight

322
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: false start penalties after he came into the game, and again,

323
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: a lot of that's on coaching, but some of that's

324
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: on him. And there are plenty of screenshots. You could

325
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: probably find half a dozen of them if you go

326
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: around the internet of Penn State receivers running wide open

327
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: on big plays, big fourth down plays, and him just

328
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: kind of locking in on one guy, going to that

329
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 1: guy in Iowa being all over it. So normal backup stuff.

330
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: But Roberson looked really bad. He did not look like

331
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: he was prepared at all in that game. The coaching

332
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: staff didn't seem to have him prepared for that situation.

333
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: And by a large this is exactly what iowall want it.

334
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: This was music to Iowa's Ears. This is the game

335
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: that they play. It's not always sexy, but Kirk Farns

336
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: has been doing it since nineteen ninety nine. They force turnovers,

337
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: they play good defense, they work with a short field.

338
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: Their punter is a fricking weapon. He is a weapon.

339
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 1: He might be their best offensive player outside Tyler Goodson,

340
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: and Penn State was constantly in this position with their

341
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: back to their own goal, starting a backup quarterback, not

342
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: wanting to do too much to maybe throw another interception.

343
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: Iowa got four of them in this game, but at

344
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: the same time not really doing much to give themselves

345
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: a chance of winning. So look, you credit Iowa for

346
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: doing what it needed to do. Again, doesn't need to

347
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: be sexy. It just needs to be more points on

348
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: the board at the end of sixty minutes. They were

349
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: able to get the job done. As a Penn State

350
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 1: a lum as somebody perhaps who's biased. It's a very

351
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: tough pill to swallow because sure, really the story of

352
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: two teams with Sean Clifford out there versus not with

353
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 1: Sean Clifford out there. But look, that's just the way

354
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: the game goes sometimes, and it takes a full team

355
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: in order to win some of these games, and I

356
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: would did what it needed to you.

357
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:44,360
Speaker 2: A big Lebowski guy.

358
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: No, I'm not. I hate that movie. I really don't

359
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: like it. Yeah, I don't like it. Oh I never

360
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: have liked it.

361
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 2: Okay, there's a line Walter, who was played by John Goodman, says,

362
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 2: say what you will about the tenants of national socialism.

363
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: At least it's an ethos, right, I find myself comparing

364
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 2: the experience of watching IOWA win football games. Say what

365
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 2: you will about Iowa's approach to winning football. It's an ethos,

366
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 2: and strong teams win games that seem unwinnable. Strong teams

367
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: find a way. Strong teams chicken wire, duct tape, elbow grease,

368
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: find a way. Iowa found a way, and that's what

369
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 2: strong teams do. You say Iowa was not sexy. That

370
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 2: defense is pretty sexy. Raise your hand if you're a

371
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 2: fan of a team and you would like Iowa's defense.

372
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 2: Pretty sure, all but like one hundred and twenty eight

373
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 2: teams are keeping their hands down. So Iowa won the game.

374
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 2: They won a clunker. Brian Farrens is the mayor of

375
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 2: Klunk City. Okay, if you're gonna live in clunk City.

376
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 2: At least be the mayor. At least make it work.

377
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 2: At least make the town work for you. Spencer Petris

378
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 2: is not that good, and that's okay. We accept him

379
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 2: for who he is. We accept the Iowa offense for

380
00:19:59,400 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 2: what it is.

381
00:19:59,800 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 4: Now.

382
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 2: If Shan Clifford is in that game, Penn State probably

383
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 2: scores at least another touchdown and that's enough to win

384
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 2: the game. Right, But that's not the reality in which

385
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: we live. It is not the reality in which we live.

386
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 2: Is Penn State had to insert a backup quarterback who

387
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 2: was what the fourth string quarterback last year, something like that,

388
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 2: and he was not prepared in an incredibly difficult scenario

389
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 2: in Kinnick Stadium against a great defense to move the

390
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 2: ball at all. He would lock in on receivers and

391
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 2: it just wasn't happening. For it was Ta Tae Kwan

392
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 2: Roberson Kwan Roberson Kwan Robson. Shan Clifford also threw two

393
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 2: interceptions when he was in there that were not great.

394
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 2: And while he did complete passes downfield and while he

395
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 2: did move the chains, he was not especially amazing against Iowa.

396
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 2: But an average quarterback against this defense probably wins the

397
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 2: game for Penn State. It's football. Injuries happen, Contingency plans

398
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 2: need to be made, and Penn State was not there

399
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 2: to win in Kinnick. And so here we are. And

400
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: we can live in an alternate reality where Shan Clifford's

401
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 2: healthy for the full four quarters, but that's not where

402
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: we are. The reality is Iowa is winning in a

403
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 2: very specific way. And again, raise your hand if you

404
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 2: would like to continually win all of your games in

405
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,959
Speaker 2: a very specific way, even if two chuckleheads like Ty

406
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: Hilden Brandon Dan Rubinstein look down on your offense. Yeah,

407
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 2: I mean I'm raising my hand, by the way, Yeah,

408
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 2: the Iowa experience. And I know what Penn State fans

409
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 2: are angry at Iowa fans for booing players. That's a

410
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 2: select a very small percentage of Iowa fans. To me,

411
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 2: every fan base has idiots whatever. Those are idiots by

412
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 2: the way, those Iowa fans booing the Penn State injured

413
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 2: players or idiots and dombin whatever, ignore them. I will

414
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 2: won the game. It was ugly. It was Iowa football.

415
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 2: They win eight, nine to ten games every year. Now,

416
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 2: who am I at this point to sit up in

417
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 2: my Ivory Tower and criticize a team that wins that often.

418
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, well right, Likewise, I love the idea

419
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: of Brian Farrence building a sim city that is titled

420
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: clunk City with poor zoning but just one very specific

421
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: thing that it does well. There are enough fire stations

422
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 1: to keep.

423
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 2: He's like the dictator, a dictator of a random Stan,

424
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 2: right and a random kujbaris Stan whose city is completely

425
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: falling apart, but he lives in this palace of platinum

426
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 2: and gold. Right, He's He's a corrupt, bad man of

427
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 2: a dictator, and I guess it works. And similarly, if

428
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 2: Spencer Peatrice goes down in this game, I was probably

429
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 2: not affected, right, I was probably They're.

430
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 1: Kind of immune from that, aren't they.

431
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 2: He makes two and a half incredible plays a game

432
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 2: that's enough. That's enough.

433
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: Well, look, I mean enormous win for Iowa. Kudos to them. Yeah,

434
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: the season is in front of him now. I think

435
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: they're projected to win all the games that are remaining

436
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 1: on their schedule, for whatever that's worth, but definitely in

437
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: control of their Big ten destiny at this juncture in

438
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: the season. And to be fair, so's Penn State. Ye

439
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: with the way things are going, if they can get

440
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: Clifford back, We'll have to wait on the details of

441
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: his injury. You know two teams that ian Iowa obviously

442
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: in control. They're probably going to be number two when

443
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 1: the new poll pops. And Penn State I think, still

444
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: very much a factor in this crazy season that we

445
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: have in twenty twenty one. Again, your final is twenty

446
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: three to twenty. Good win for Iowa. Let's go on

447
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: over to the Red River shootout. That was loud in

448
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: the headphones. It was sort of intended to be Dan. Yeah,

449
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: what a game we had in the Cotton Bowl, A

450
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: legit shootout. I cannot believe that Oklahoma won this. I

451
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,239
Speaker 1: still I don't know how they covered the point spread here.

452
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about a miracle front door cover.

453
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: Just this game started, Sorry puppies, Sorry pupps. This game started.

454
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 1: Texas had a fourteen to nothing lead with like a

455
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: minute and fifty three seconds elapsed.

456
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 4: Was right away.

457
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: They were up fourteen to nothing. Oklahoma came back with

458
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Then Texas poured onto more. It was twenty

459
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: eight to seven before you could blink.

460
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

461
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: Then in the second quarter, Lincoln Riley starts playing foot

462
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: seaes with Caleb Williams. He's there, five star, true freshman.

463
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: He was the guy that the student section was calling for.

464
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: Because the student section, of course, isn't a stude observer

465
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: of football. Spencer Rattler just seemed very tentative, like he

466
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: was seeing ghosts. As you might say, I think this

467
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: would be the proper context to use that terminology. Yep,

468
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: wasn't going downfield at all, and so they brought in

469
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: Williams for play, just a running play, and he put

470
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 1: a nice move on a guy ran for a sixty

471
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: six yard touchdown. Lincoln stuck with Rattler for I think

472
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: two more drives, but then towards the end of the

473
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,199
Speaker 1: half he fumbled it away and that was that. They

474
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: brought in Caleb Williams for pretty much the entire second half,

475
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: and he gave him a pop. He was totally willing,

476
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: by the way, to throw that deep ball. Not always

477
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: advisably so, all right, but he would see a matchup,

478
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: he gave his receivers a chance. Yeah, a lot of

479
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,479
Speaker 1: those fifty fifty balls, right, and he knew he had

480
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: athletes out there. He would see man on man coverage

481
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: and it would just sort of heave it to Okahoma's credit,

482
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: to their receiver's credit, they just got some amazing plays.

483
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: The combination of what they got in playmaking out wide,

484
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: with the effort late from Kennedy Brooks who had two

485
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,479
Speaker 1: important touchdowns down the stretch, Oklahoma was stormed back from

486
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: an eighteen point deficit to win this game fifty five

487
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 1: forty eight. Casey Thompson, for his part on the Texas side,

488
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: was very good. Five touchdowns, no picks, three eighty eight

489
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: almost four hundred yards passing. But Jean Robinson had himself

490
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 1: a pretty good game as well. But the storyline moving

491
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: forward from this, unfortunately for Spencer Rattler, is going to

492
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: be a quarterback controversy at Oklahoma, whether or not it

493
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 1: should be Cable Williams moving forward, and I would presume

494
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: Oklahoma's going to move up in the polls. You know,

495
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: what do they need to do as a team to

496
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: continue their growth and become a real contender for the playoff.

497
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 2: Fascinating storylines all over the field, all over the field. Obviously,

498
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 2: the Caleb Williams one is the headliner. Just to relieve

499
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 2: somebody with Spencer Ratler's profile and success level early on

500
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 2: in his career. But man, Texas jumping out like they did,

501
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 2: Savior Worthy popping like he did. Now, Oklahoma's defense has

502
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 2: taken some lumps in the back end. I understand that,

503
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 2: but damn as a true freshman on this level, on

504
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 2: this stage, incredible Casey Thompson hitting them incredibly accurately and impressively.

505
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 2: And man, so you have the Texas offensive line fading,

506
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 2: you have Oklahoma's passing game coming alive. You have Kennedy

507
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 2: Brooks leading the way and winning the game on a

508
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 2: walk off run a direct snap, Yeah, a direct snap misdirection.

509
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 2: And I want to give the proper credit here. I

510
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 2: believe it's Brandon Willis, who is the Oklahoma tight end.

511
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:21,120
Speaker 2: The block, the block of the Millennium just incredible, just incredible,

512
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 2: And I think the an outside linebacker for Texas that

513
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 2: really sprung it open because the lane was like he

514
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 2: was basically untouched, I believe on that run. So just

515
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 2: an incredible back and forth, incredible TV. The thing that

516
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 2: stood out to me and watching this game is the

517
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 2: unsustainability of Texas and explosive offensive plays that when getting

518
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 2: them life was amazing. But it was that second pitch

519
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 2: it's not the outpitch. It's just that second, second pitch.

520
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 2: That's what I've been saying, Right, six drives going three

521
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: or four plays and out quickly, and that's just it's

522
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 2: hanging their own defense out to dry and allowing Oklahoma.

523
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 2: I think at one point it was thirty eight to

524
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 2: twenty like in the second half, and it's if that

525
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 2: Texas offense is getting off the field quickly. And John

526
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 2: Robinson was good, but you take away that fifty yard

527
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 2: run and he was merely okay, right, and that's fine.

528
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 2: Like Oklahoma's defense upfront can be pretty scary. So that

529
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 2: to me is how many different speeds can Texas's offense go?

530
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 2: You know, the old Chip Kelly Oregon offense, it was

531
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: great because it went fast, but it had different speeds.

532
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 2: It was like the red, yellow green. It could go slow,

533
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 2: it could go at a medium pace. Shout out, Adam Sandler,

534
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 2: I am, I am wondering, and this is year one

535
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 2: what Texas's offense looks like? And just can we drive

536
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 2: down the field a little bit slower or can we

537
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 2: just like on third and seven, can we get a

538
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 2: nine yard pass and just keep the chains moving like

539
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 2: just that intermediate element to an offense is where Texas

540
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: really needs to grow, and they will. I imagine they will.

541
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 2: They're gonna grow on defense, They're gonna tackle better, They're

542
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 2: going to on all three levels. They're gonna become more

543
00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 2: talented and develop better, I believe under Petekwakowski. But a fascinating,

544
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 2: fascinating game. Caleb Williams coming in in that spot, I

545
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 2: don't know. It probably some sort of combination of ballsy

546
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 2: Lincoln Riley decision making and maybe the team being ready

547
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 2: to move past Spencer Rattler, right like if Spencer Ratler

548
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 2: was the heart and soul of this offense in this

549
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: team and is leading the team and everybody lines up

550
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 2: behind Spencer Rattler. I don't know if that move's being made,

551
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 2: but I think it might speak to this is me

552
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 2: fully guessing irresponsibly that something maybe up behind the scenes

553
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 2: that made it a little bit easier for Lincoln Riley

554
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 2: to move on to Caleb Williams.

555
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams came in and definitely gave them a spark.

556
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: There's simply no denying yet.

557
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 2: That fumbled snap and pick up and roll out and

558
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 2: throw to the corner of the end It's just he's

559
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 2: a playmaker.

560
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: He's a playmaker, he's a dynamic runner. He's also a

561
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: bigger guy, which helps. So big win for Oklahoma here, Wow,

562
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: to come from behind. Did you see the ref in

563
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: this game, by the way, jacked beyond his gills?

564
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 5: I looked like.

565
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: Ridiculous.

566
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 2: I saw somebody tweet out like this guy could step

567
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 2: in on the field right now. I just he could

568
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 2: fill a lane.

569
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: He could be a gunner. Yeah, he could definitely be

570
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: a gunner.

571
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

572
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: Front door cover, by the way, front door cover, yep. Oh,

573
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: Miss fifty two, Arkansas fifty one. Speaking of shootouts, Dan Yeah.

574
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: Back on Tuesday of last week, Travis May, writes for

575
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: a website, said that this might be the best game

576
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: of the day. He might have been right about that.

577
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: What a fun game, What a fun game. You were

578
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: writing to me about this game. It's getting fun. My

579
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 1: friends were texting me, Hey, this old Miss game is

580
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: getting fun. Over one hundred total points, over thirt you're

581
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: close to thirteen hundred total yards, not much defense to

582
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: speak of until the very last play the game. Arkansas

583
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: square or is a nine yard touchdown pass to Warren

584
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: Thompson with no time left. To make it fifty two

585
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: to fifty one. Sam Pittman's a riverboat gambler. Sam Pittman says,

586
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: we're going for two.

587
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 4: I love it.

588
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: I love it, love it goes for two. Nobody's open.

589
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: Ole Miss did a good job covering on that one

590
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: specific play and just clogging up the passing lanes and

591
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: putting some pressure on kJ Jefferson and whatnot, and so

592
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: they get to stop. They end up winning. But like,

593
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit here and read off the

594
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: stats because there were so many of them. Both teams

595
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: were extremely impressive on offense, extremely impressive on the ground,

596
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: which is probably more of a story for Ole Miss

597
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 1: than it would be for the Arkansas side.

598
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 2: I mean, no, they've been running really well this year.

599
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,719
Speaker 2: They've been They've been running very well this year.

600
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I just feel like their identity is still

601
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 1: much more on the passing side with Matt Korra, So

602
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: to do it in a big game here against a

603
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: good defense like Arkansas was notable to me. But a

604
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: back and forth game, a fun game, well truly one

605
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: of those deals the last team with the ball is

606
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: the one that's gonna win, and Arkansas had a chance

607
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: to do just that they couldn't get the two point conversion.

608
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: But how much of this game did you watch? What

609
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: did you feel while you were watching it? What do

610
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: you feel about these teams now moving forward?

611
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 2: I watched the whole game, these two teams, and it's

612
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: already been proven, like they're crazy entertaining short of what

613
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 2: Arkansas looked like against Georgia. Even Ole miss May was

614
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 2: entertaining in the second half against Alabama. They was not

615
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 2: a game at that point, but it's Georgia and Alabama.

616
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 5: Whatever.

617
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 2: I don't know what you can second guess about what

618
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 2: Arkansas did decision, You can second guess their defensive effort,

619
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 2: their way to you know, they're adjusting to the rushing attack.

620
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 2: And Matt Crowley threw the ball what twenty twenty one

621
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 2: times in this game? And Lane Kiffin is a play

622
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 2: caller that second half with sort of figuring out where

623
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 2: Arkansas was going, where Barry Odom was going on defense

624
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 2: and hitting those big plays with what Ontario Drummond and

625
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 2: Brayley and Sanders Lane Kiffin at one point I think

626
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 2: through a clipboard, Yeah, during the Braylen Sanders touchdown catch

627
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 2: and run. I don't know what you second guess here.

628
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 2: I mean there was a fifty yard field goal attempt

629
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 2: from a college kicker on fourth and nine. I believe

630
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 2: from the ole Miss thirty two Arkansas attempted a fifty

631
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 2: yard or that wasn't good. I guess you could second

632
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 2: guess that, and there was. They took the field goal points.

633
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 2: They took the three on fourth and five, pretty deep

634
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 2: in Ole Miss territory. But at that point I don't

635
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 2: think either coach was thinking this was a fifty two

636
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 2: to fifty one game. No, no, So taking points kind

637
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 2: of made sense there given the down and distance. I

638
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: understand going for it. I understand giving yourself a better

639
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 2: chance to win and score touchdowns. Scoring touchdowns always better

640
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 2: than field goals. But I don't imagine that they had

641
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 2: in mind that this is the rhythm of the game.

642
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 2: That's where that was going. So you're right, And Lane

643
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 2: Kiffin said it after the game, like he was asked

644
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 2: something about like, oh, how did how did you get

645
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 2: the stop? How did your defense respond? Blobby volumes like,

646
00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 2: our defense didn't do anything. They played about as terribly

647
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 2: as a defense can play. They just happened to go

648
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 2: for two and not get it. And that's why we

649
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 2: won the game, and so crazy entertaining. Uh, it would

650
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 2: be terrific if ole Miss and Arkansas figured out ways

651
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 2: to at least get some more stops and figure out

652
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 2: creative ways to get off the field or force turnovers

653
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 2: or something like that. But I am not here as

654
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 2: a television viewer to complain about any part of this game.

655
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: Wonderful, No, wonderful game again, fifty two to fifty one

656
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: came down to the wire. Admire the move by Sam Pittman.

657
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: He is trying, he is trying to build something at Arkansas.

658
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 1: He's trying to revive that program.

659
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 2: So you're okay on the road in that spot going

660
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 2: for two instead of playing for overtime. I love it.

661
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 2: I'm good with it.

662
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm good with it because what are the odds

663
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 1: your defense is going to get a stop at that point?

664
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,879
Speaker 2: Right? You know it's not like they had shown much.

665
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,399
Speaker 1: No, no, So if you have that chance, if you've

666
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: got the hammer, if you can go out with a win,

667
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: agree you take the chance.

668
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 2: At this point? Moving forward, is there an SEC matchup?

669
00:34:58,400 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 2: I know I'm putting you on the spot, but like

670
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 2: that you look forward to from a pure entertainment entertainment standpoint,

671
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 2: when these two teams are at least pretty good, then

672
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 2: Ole miss Arkansas like they're fraught with unbelievably entertaining baggage.

673
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 2: Like there are other games around the conference, other games

674
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 2: around the country. But man, just in terms of what

675
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 2: did I use on the Solid Saturday show, like the

676
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 2: chaotic energy involved this matchup, well, amazing.

677
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: Ole misplays Tennessee next week, which could have sofiatic energy.

678
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,280
Speaker 2: My god, I'm gonna eat something special for it. It's incredible.

679
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, big win here real quick. I do want to

680
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 1: get through all the other Yeah, we got lots, but

681
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: I should mention since we are talking about, you know,

682
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: top teams and important games and upsets. BYU lost BYU,

683
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: the number ten team in the previous AP poll twenty

684
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 1: six to seventeen. They lost to Boise We joked about

685
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: a podcast dedicated to baseball closers this week. There's definitely

686
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: been a Jose Mason quality to Boise State this year.

687
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 4: M hm.

688
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: They've blown second half leads a couple times. UCF and

689
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 1: Nevada come to mind. Right in this one though. They

690
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: finished strong in this one, though they held BYU to

691
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: just one touchdown over the last three quarters. It was

692
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: that Boise defense that stepped up the turning point in

693
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: this game. They got back to back fumbles in the

694
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: second quarter, yes off of BYU, both of which went

695
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: for Boise touchdowns, So a good win for them. It

696
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: sucks for BYU to lose this one, but they do

697
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: play a tough schedule and Boise was up for the challenge.

698
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: Jaron Hall was back. He had a good game. He

699
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: had a career high in terms of passing yardage, and

700
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 1: they outgained Boise. So the offense looked okay, but just

701
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: a few too many mistakes and Boise came to play

702
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 1: here as a number ten team in the country.

703
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 2: Goes down great when from Boise and you're one of

704
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 2: andy Avlos. They ran the ball relatively well is I

705
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 2: think it was the Oregon transfer Cyrus to BBI. Lakio

706
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 2: ran well for so really nice win for an uneven

707
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,240
Speaker 2: Boise season. You'll started by that that UCF blown lead.

708
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 1: All right, So I'm gonna read through the other scores

709
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: in the SEC and then we can circle back and

710
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: talk about what moved the needle for us. We had

711
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 1: Kentucky forty two, LSU twenty one. I know what the

712
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: storyline is going to be coming out of that, We'll

713
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 1: get to it momentarily. We had Georgia thirty four, Auburn ten,

714
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 1: Tennessee forty five, South Carolina twenty, Florida blanks Vanderbilt forty

715
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: two to nil, and Missouri forty eight North Texas thirty five.

716
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 1: Tyler Baty goes over two hundred yards rushing with two

717
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 1: touchdowns in that game. I want to circle back to

718
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: the LSU game. Yeah, let's Kentucky was favored by three

719
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 1: going into that one. They scored in their first two drives.

720
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: The rest of the first half, it was back and

721
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 1: forth with punts. Felt a little bit like Kentucky's other

722
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: work this season. Okay, was it anything far and away

723
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 1: different from what we'd seen before. In the second half, though,

724
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: the offense came alive. They open up the second half

725
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 1: with four minute touchdown drive, They make it twenty one zero,

726
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: and then they just keep their foot on the gas.

727
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: This was very much a game where Kentucky asserted itself

728
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 1: on offense. Three hundred and thirty yards, three touchdowns on

729
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 1: the ground for them. Two of those touchdowns, by the way,

730
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: came from Will the Thrill our boy Will Levis, who

731
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: is now officially back. I should say.

732
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 2: I don't even know what that means anymore.

733
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: No, no one does. He looked really good in this

734
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: game Kentucky six to zero and on the road against

735
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: Georgia next week. It's weird to say that that's kind

736
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: of the show piece for the week seven, but it is.

737
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: It's true, definitely, And if your LSU, the storyline I

738
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 1: was alluding to is Coacho Coacho. The drum beat was

739
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: already growing louder even before this game kicked off. It's

740
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: going to be deafening after this. I think if in

741
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: this based on nothing, I think he's done so. I

742
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: think he's toast.

743
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it might. It might happen as soon

744
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 2: as this show, before the show is released to the public.

745
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 1: It does not feel like this is going to a

746
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 1: good place for Coach Show and the CELSU team in

747
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one.

748
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 2: No, that's that is the story. That is the national

749
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 2: story coming out of this game is what has happened

750
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 2: to LSU in the last two years. But to me,

751
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 2: the actual fish bowl of this game story is Man,

752
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 2: Kentucky's good like I don't care if LSU is reeling.

753
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 2: I don't care if they're a shell of who they

754
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 2: normally are, who they were two years ago. If that

755
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,919
Speaker 2: is all true, then a really good team stomps that team.

756
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 2: And that's what Kentucky did. Bill Levis in the red zone.

757
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 2: Will Levis with his arm, he was pinpoint, he was nails.

758
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 2: He spread the ball around, He ran super well. He

759
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 2: was a weapon on the ground, which we had scene

760
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 2: at times for stretches at Penn State in relief duty.

761
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 2: But he was accurate. They ran the ball. It was

762
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 2: what Qvasier, Smoke and Chris Rodriguez were hitting the whole hard.

763
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 2: This was a team that has I mean that had

764
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 2: last night and has in general. It's act together now.

765
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 2: If they can cut back the turnovers a little bit,

766
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 2: that would be wonderful. But from Kentucky to go where

767
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 2: it go from where it was, which was just sort

768
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 2: of running the ball on offense and hoping to control

769
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 2: clock and then playing great defense. And you remember Josh

770
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 2: Allen coming off the edge. All those guys. It's great

771
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 2: and they won games, and it's tough to win games

772
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 2: in the SEC at Kentucky, but for them to do

773
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 2: what they did against LSU and score what was forty

774
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 2: two points. They got stronger over the course of the game.

775
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 2: They were strong in the red zone, the play calling, like,

776
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 2: I don't know how much how much longer Liam Collen's

777
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 2: going to be in Lexington, because my god is his

778
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:51,719
Speaker 2: his profile now raised as an offensive mind. But Kentucky's

779
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 2: just a full on, really good team. They're flawed in

780
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 2: a couple of ways. They're not as deep as the

781
00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:00,919
Speaker 2: better teams in the SEC, but who cares. They're just impressive.

782
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 2: And that was just a statement last night. So good

783
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 2: for the Cats.

784
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 1: Good for the Cats. The Georgia game, I'll just call

785
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,439
Speaker 1: out very quickly. Stetson Bennett got the start in place

786
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 1: of JT. Daniels. He's still dealing with his lat injury.

787
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,479
Speaker 1: He was solid and Georgia rushed for over two hundred

788
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 1: yards two touchdowns on the ground. Their defense just too

789
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: much for Auburn. It's kind of been the story of

790
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: twenty one for the george Bulldogs. The defense is overwhelming.

791
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,959
Speaker 1: Tank Bigsby held to two point eight yards per Carrie

792
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: did have a touchdown. That was just the second touchdown

793
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 1: by the way that the Georgia Bulldogs have given up

794
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 1: on defense all year long. So the defense remains very formidable.

795
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 1: The offense is doing what it needs to and despite

796
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,919
Speaker 1: all the talk about JT. Daniels and what he could

797
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 1: bring to this Georgia offense before the start of the season,

798
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: he can't get on the field. He can't get out.

799
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: He's not healthy. It was an oblique injury. Yeah, now

800
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 1: that was a lat dealing with a lad.

801
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 2: Is there a difference. I don't know, Mike.

802
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 1: I think your lad's up here, okay, and your.

803
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,280
Speaker 2: Obliques are where you're doing this on a visual medium

804
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 2: down here, okay.

805
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: And Stetson Bennett has done pretty well in every situation

806
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 1: where yeah, he's needed to so far this year. So

807
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: good on Georgia for making it work. I still think

808
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of wondering about what could have

809
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 1: been if you had a little bit more of a

810
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:30,879
Speaker 1: downfield threat in the passing game.

811
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 2: But do not disrespect Ladd Maconkey on the show. Do

812
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 2: not disrespect the connection of stets into Lad. Yeah, he

813
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 2: made plays. I mean Stetson Bennett doesn't have a big arm.

814
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 2: He will underthrow a guy better to under than over souh.

815
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 2: The connection worked inasmuch as Georgia has a winning formula.

816
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,280
Speaker 2: It's run the ball, move the chains, suffocate on defense,

817
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 2: and your prob probably not hanging around for more than

818
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,240
Speaker 2: a quarter and a half. And it's a very difficult

819
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 2: defense and team to play against. And even with Stetson Bennett,

820
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 2: he made plays. He made plays with his feet, he

821
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 2: made plays with his arm. They're going to hit you

822
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 2: over the top, you know, as soon as they sort

823
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 2: of roll you into thinking, they're just going to power

824
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 2: run the ball away and it works. George is an

825
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 2: excellent team. I don't know, there's not much to sort

826
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 2: of dive into it. And they're an excellent team with

827
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 2: a backup quarterback. Man, I don't know. That's that's scary

828
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 2: as hell.

829
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: And they're going to be the new number one team

830
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 1: in the country.

831
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

832
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: When the latest ape hopefully is out here shortly. Yeah. Finally,

833
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: I'll just mention Tennessee very quickly, because you and I

834
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 1: were riding back and forth to the tune of Man Tennessee,

835
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 1: Man Tennessee. We said on the show this past week

836
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 1: they are at very least interesting adjacent. Yeah, and they

837
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,839
Speaker 1: seem to be getting better. They were up thirty five

838
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,320
Speaker 1: nothing with six minutes left in the first half, we

839
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: didn't expect too much of a fight from South Carolina,

840
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: you know, but the points spread to me was was notable.

841
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:07,840
Speaker 1: It's like eleven points or something like that. It just

842
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:09,839
Speaker 1: felt like it was too low. I was wondering if

843
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: Vegas saw something that we didn't, because Tennessee has been

844
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 1: very dynamic on offense. I think we were right in

845
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: this case. Maybe we should have stuck to our guns

846
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 1: a little bit more and gone Tennessee because they just

847
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 1: drilled South Carolina here between Hendon Hooker and Tyan Evans

848
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: and you know, out wide, they look really really good

849
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 1: right now, so we'll see.

850
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, And important to remember Josh Heipel has a previously

851
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:35,760
Speaker 2: developed quarterback running his offense.

852
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 5: Right.

853
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 2: He has a quarterback who has shown more than enough

854
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 2: to be considered one of the better quarterbacks in the

855
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 2: conference and one of I don't know, the best twenty

856
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the country, twenty five quarterbacks at his best.

857
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 2: And the next step is going to be finding and

858
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 2: developing your own guy. But as far as Tennessee on

859
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 2: the right path, I think it's irrefutable. Now they are.

860
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 2: I mean it feels coming out of the gate they

861
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 2: got twenty eight nothing in the first order, Tyon Evans

862
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 2: is a playmaker. The Ovellis Jones, the USC transl like,

863
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 2: they've got guys and they're good enough as a coaching

864
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 2: staff to take advantage. And they're scoring, and they're you know,

865
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 2: they're blocking on the outside. They are showing what needs

866
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 2: to be shown for a team in the process of

867
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 2: getting its act together. Tennessee is exciting adjacent. How about that?

868
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,879
Speaker 1: Over in the Big Ten. We had Michigan by three

869
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: on the road over Nebraska, thirty to twenty nine. We

870
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: had Michigan State thirty one thirteen on the road over Rutgers.

871
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,839
Speaker 1: And we had Ohio State sixty six to seventeen over

872
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:40,800
Speaker 1: Maryland CJ. Stroud. It's just a monster game. Five touchdowns,

873
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 1: over four hundred yards, fifty six to ten. At one

874
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: point late in the third quarter, did you lock up Maryland?

875
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,399
Speaker 2: I locked up Maryland against Iowa. I was not going

876
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 2: to do such a thing. Okay, good for you at

877
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 2: Ohio State. Yeah, no, I did not very quickly. Ohio

878
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 2: State Maryland CJ. Stroud is the best.

879
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: Quarterback in the country right now, kind is I mean, it's.

880
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 2: Maryland and Rutgers, and he had a great game against Oregon.

881
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 2: They don't have the schedule to say that emphatically, but man,

882
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 2: his numbers are bunkers.

883
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's having an incredible season.

884
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,320
Speaker 2: And they're playing the younger dudes on defense too. I

885
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,400
Speaker 2: sort of noticed in skimming through this game, like they

886
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 2: are they're just going with best guy available at every

887
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 2: single spot, and whoever's winning more one on ones gets

888
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 2: on the field. Good for them.

889
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a problem. That's a problem because the

890
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 1: deeper we get into this thing is those guys develop

891
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 1: and get more comfortable and learn their assignments a little

892
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,399
Speaker 1: bit more. Those are the teams that tend to rise

893
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,200
Speaker 1: up very quickly. And it's strange to say, but you've

894
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: got teams like Ohio State who are flying a little

895
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 1: bit under the radar now just by virtue of that

896
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 1: Week two lost to Oregon.

897
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,840
Speaker 2: Good timing. If you're gonna lose a game, lose a

898
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 2: game to at least a pretty good team, and do

899
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 2: it early.

900
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:56,280
Speaker 1: Michigan Nebraska, Okay, another really good game. Just what thirteen

901
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,280
Speaker 1: to I think it was thirteen nothing? Yeah, Michigan thirteen

902
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,640
Speaker 1: to nothing at half. Nebraska storm's back. They have twenty

903
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 1: two points in the third quarter, they grab a twenty

904
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 1: two to nineteen lead going into that final quarter, back

905
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 1: and forth until a crucial fumble by Adrian Martinez with

906
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: under two minutes to play. He said afterwards he thought

907
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 1: the play was dead. I guess I understand his point

908
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,399
Speaker 1: of view there. I would say the same thing if

909
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: I were, Yeah, I understand where he's coming from.

910
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 4: It did.

911
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:30,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if it looked to the television viewing

912
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: eye that the play was dead, But there's at least

913
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 1: a shred of truth in what he was saying. He

914
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 1: needs to take better care of the football. He admitted

915
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,400
Speaker 1: it as much in the post game. Scott Frost did

916
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,799
Speaker 1: a literal face palm after that play.

917
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 2: He always looks like he's watching the biggest screen at

918
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 2: a sports book and seeing his life saving slowly dwindle

919
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:55,840
Speaker 2: away thanks to like at the same time, Mookie Bets

920
00:47:56,640 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 2: and Trey Young, like, just like, what has happened? What

921
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 2: is all this? This is always happening to me? The

922
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 2: m UMGM.

923
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 1: Michigan kicks a thirty nine yard field goal with Jake Moody.

924
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:13,160
Speaker 1: Michigan survives thirty two to twenty nine. Damn yeah, where

925
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 1: you at with Michigan in Nebraska.

926
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 2: Michigan's a good team. Uh Kate McNamara and maccai McNamara

927
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 2: through his first interception of the season was a great

928
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:26,240
Speaker 2: play from Nebraska. Uh Ramir Johnson was the playmaker for Nebraska.

929
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 2: I just Nebraska was held scoreless as you mentioned the

930
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 2: first half. Like to beat an at least good team

931
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:36,919
Speaker 2: in Michigan, show me something for four quarters, Show America something,

932
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,880
Speaker 2: show Tie something, sho Mama ate something for four quarters

933
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 2: and everything's going to point to Adrian Martinez. And that

934
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 2: fumbled at the end of the game one he had

935
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:49,759
Speaker 2: a minute and was at midfield to win that game, right, Yeah,

936
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 2: that didn't end the game. And if memory serves, early

937
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 2: on in that game, Nebraska drove the field and got

938
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 2: what minus one yards within the Michigan five Like that.

939
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 2: The it's not the big things as much as it

940
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 2: is winning situations against good teams at home with the

941
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 2: crowd behind you that Nebraska just fails to do over

942
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 2: and over again. This is a good Nebraska team that

943
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 2: has underwhelming results. They have a quarterback who can make

944
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 2: plays but kind of disappears sometimes and isn't always put

945
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,560
Speaker 2: in the best position. This is a defense that can

946
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 2: win nine ten games. If the entire team, the entire

947
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 2: plane was made out of the Nebraska defense, they're winning

948
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 2: this game. But the reality is Nebraska disappears for far

949
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:36,040
Speaker 2: too long, doesn't take advantage of its opportunities when presented,

950
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,600
Speaker 2: and that's how we get to the place where Scott

951
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,800
Speaker 2: Frost is looking into his future and wondering what his

952
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,879
Speaker 2: next job will be eventually looking at the big board

953
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:47,759
Speaker 2: at the MGM and thinking how did we get here?

954
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 1: Nebraska is a good team. It does feel like they're improving.

955
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 2: They should have wins over the Michigan schools. There's no

956
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 2: good reason they haven't beaten Michigan State in Michigan this year.

957
00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:58,240
Speaker 2: There's just not a good reason.

958
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,600
Speaker 1: It still feels a little bit too met much like

959
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,919
Speaker 1: the offense is Adrian Martinez will give and taketh away

960
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 1: for sure?

961
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 2: Is there? I mean, the Nebraska fan base is probably

962
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,880
Speaker 2: the most tortured this year, just in terms of what

963
00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 2: Nebraska feeds to it, which is a constant injection of

964
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 2: hope and poison, which I guess might be all all

965
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 2: of the same thing, but man, every week, Yeah.

966
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: It's it's tough and an interesting subplot for them now

967
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: they're probably beating Minnesota and Purdue next big games, but

968
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:42,320
Speaker 1: they likely need to be one of Ohio State, Wisconsin,

969
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: or Iowa to make a bowl game. Wisconsin looks like

970
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 1: the low hanging fruit there definitely, However, if they can

971
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 1: knock off one of the other two, which I think

972
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 1: they're good enough to do, maybe not Ohio State at

973
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 1: this point, but I think they could beat Iowa if

974
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:02,279
Speaker 1: they got enough breaks. What a seismic shift that would

975
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 1: set off in the college football landscape right now with

976
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 1: where we're at. So, Nebraska has a lot to play

977
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:13,240
Speaker 1: for and can still very much impact the college football

978
00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: seasons as we're coming to know it here.

979
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 2: In twenty one, they have Nebraska has Ohio State the

980
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 2: week after Ohio State has Penn State, and that game

981
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 2: is in Lincoln. I believe so exactly it's set up,

982
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 2: but like I'm just I can't buy that stock now.

983
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:31,399
Speaker 2: Can't get on board, like that was a perfect opportunity

984
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 2: to beat a good top ten team, and it's just

985
00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,720
Speaker 2: it's too uneven an offense.

986
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: Michigan State, by the way, gaudy numbers from Kenneth Walker

987
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 1: the third Jalen Naylor, my god, two hundred and twenty

988
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: one yards receiving Peyton Thorne looked really good. They were

989
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 1: really good on the road. I think our friend Matt

990
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 1: Hinton put it best on Twitter that he's just not

991
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 1: used to seeing Michigan State be this explosive. They had

992
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 1: some really big plays in this game. So kudos to

993
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,760
Speaker 1: Sparty for keeping the train rolling. It's rots, it's Rutgers.

994
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,919
Speaker 1: But still the points Bread was five, it was five.

995
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 2: What you should do?

996
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, they did what you should do. I should finally

997
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 1: mention that Wisconsin also shut out Illinois. I forgot to

998
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 1: mention that one twenty four to Neil to round out

999
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 1: the Big ten. They ran the ball well, which is

1000
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: new they did in this here. Yeah, let's go on

1001
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 1: over to the Big twelve. Baylor forty five, West Virginia

1002
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 1: twenty and wow, TCU fifty two, Texas Tech thirty one. Dan, Yes, sir,

1003
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:33,439
Speaker 1: thoughts in these.

1004
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 2: Games, TCU's defense is still kind of broken. But you

1005
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 2: score thirty five points and a half, you run for

1006
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 2: over three hundred yards. It's Kendre Miller and Zach Evans.

1007
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,880
Speaker 2: It's a great day to be a frog. All things considered,

1008
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 2: Max Duggan only throws the ball.

1009
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,359
Speaker 1: What ten times and they went full was constant full

1010
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:52,719
Speaker 1: Wisconsin with this playbook.

1011
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:58,360
Speaker 2: Yep, great, No, that was great. The Baylor story is

1012
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 2: pretty wonderful to me. I just the defense has its

1013
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 2: act together. They were up, but forty five to thirteen

1014
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:05,879
Speaker 2: deep into that game, and there was like a meeting.

1015
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 2: This West Virginia touchdown scoed Gary Bohannon looks comfortable and

1016
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 2: confident and has a nice arm, moves. Well, they're running

1017
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,840
Speaker 2: the ball. It was as Abram and it just was

1018
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 2: a Taekwon Thornton who had the long cat. Like It's

1019
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 2: just there are just pieces coming together, there are playmakers.

1020
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,760
Speaker 2: They seem well coached. I was banging the drum about Grimey.

1021
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 2: You were super down on the Bears preseason, but here

1022
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:32,320
Speaker 2: you are. You're accepting and at least pretty good promising

1023
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,520
Speaker 2: act together Baylor in a conference that is all over

1024
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:35,919
Speaker 2: the place.

1025
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 1: This wasn't even a close game. Now Baylor killed him.

1026
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 2: And I don't know where what West Virginia does.

1027
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:46,560
Speaker 1: By the way, Yeah, West Virginia. For as much as

1028
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,320
Speaker 1: I kind of did in about face on what I

1029
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:53,720
Speaker 1: had said earlier in the year, which was West Virginia

1030
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:55,879
Speaker 1: is sort of lost right now, I don't know which

1031
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 1: direction they're headed. Then I took that back and I said,

1032
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 1: I feel like it's going in a good direction. I

1033
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 1: don't know how I feel after this. This was just

1034
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 1: not a good showing on the road. It's been a

1035
00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:07,920
Speaker 1: bit of a gauntlet for West Virginia. Maybe they'd need

1036
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 1: a moment a beat to catch themselves back up to

1037
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 1: speed here, but it was definitely not a good look

1038
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 1: for them. And on the Baylor's side, you know, everybody

1039
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:21,440
Speaker 1: I think gravitates towards the big Gary Bohannan numbers and

1040
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,759
Speaker 1: Taekwon Thornton. But really good at the point of attack.

1041
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,759
Speaker 2: Like yeah, which we haven't been able to say.

1042
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 1: No, really good on both sides, the offensive and defensive lines,

1043
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 1: and I think that's just really important. So kudos Dave

1044
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 1: Randa does definitely have this thing. Yeah, going in a

1045
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:43,440
Speaker 1: good direction here as they win forty five to twenty.

1046
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 2: Abram Smith by the way, and it was a pick

1047
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 2: six for TCU to get to thirty five in that

1048
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:50,319
Speaker 2: first half against Texas Tech.

1049
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:54,319
Speaker 1: Over in the ACC we had Florida State knocking off

1050
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 1: North Carolina. Really good game for Jordan Travis. Good for him.

1051
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 1: We had Georgia Tech thirty one to twenty seven over

1052
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:07,920
Speaker 1: the Duke Blue Devils. We'll just leave it there. We

1053
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: had Virginia thirty four to thirty three over Oulisville, the

1054
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:17,719
Speaker 1: who's trailed seventeen heading into the fourth quarter. They needed

1055
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 1: three touchdowns to win, the last of which came with

1056
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,080
Speaker 1: just twenty two ticks left from Brendan Armstrong, who had

1057
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,920
Speaker 1: another four hundred yard game. We had wake Forest winning

1058
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 1: in overtime in the Carrier Dome, Dan, do we have

1059
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:32,959
Speaker 1: the sound?

1060
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:35,520
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1061
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 2: The Carrier Dome is where teams go to die, and

1062
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:43,000
Speaker 2: it seemed like that was gonna be true.

1063
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 1: It seemed like it was stomped on the ground gonna

1064
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: be true. They kicked a field goal to grab the lead,

1065
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 1: Syracuse did, but they eventually lose on a touchdown. This

1066
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 1: game sort of went the way we thought, by the way,

1067
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:00,359
Speaker 1: with Syracuse having a lot of success on the three

1068
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 1: hundred over three hundred and fifty yards, they had three

1069
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 1: touchdowns on the ground. The wake run defense is still

1070
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:10,200
Speaker 1: extremely suspect, but a nice win. Nonetheless, to go on

1071
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 1: the road to the Carrier Dome. I think we're both

1072
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:15,759
Speaker 1: in agreement here that Syracuse is not as bad as

1073
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: would appear if you just look at the win loss record.

1074
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,240
Speaker 2: This is so winnable it would have justified my sound.

1075
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,520
Speaker 2: But like Garrett Trader in that game, rush for almost

1076
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 2: two hundred yards. Yeah, they've found a guy. If he

1077
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,440
Speaker 2: can pop some more, if that offense can generate some

1078
00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:32,359
Speaker 2: more plays downfield. I mean that's a big if. It's

1079
00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:38,120
Speaker 2: not easy, but it's the acc they they become again

1080
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 2: interesting adjacent. How about that?

1081
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:41,880
Speaker 1: And then there was a Notre Dame game thirty two

1082
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,239
Speaker 1: to twenty nine. Yeah you watched this game?

1083
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 2: No, No, I watched. I watched a sped up version

1084
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 2: this morning. But I didn't sit and watch this game

1085
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,800
Speaker 2: because I just I didn't trust Brian Kelly when he

1086
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 2: said during the week, where I know who the guy is.

1087
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:57,800
Speaker 2: We found our guy. We're sticking with our guy for

1088
00:56:57,880 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 2: the rest of the year. And I just watched him

1089
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,759
Speaker 2: say that, and I was like, Okay, Brian, I'm not

1090
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:05,120
Speaker 2: watching Braxton Burmeister against this carousel.

1091
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: Nah, it is truly a quarterback by committee guy that

1092
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: that is the guy. At this point, Notre Dame needs

1093
00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 1: a forty eight yard field goal from Jonathan Door to

1094
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 1: win it. A big kick for him. I had joked

1095
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:20,720
Speaker 1: he was getting into Yip's territory. But a nice win,

1096
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 1: especially on his leg, hopefully that gives him a little

1097
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,920
Speaker 1: bit of confidence. But this team's gonna kill me with

1098
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:32,200
Speaker 1: the quarterback thing. They're just gonna kill me. They started

1099
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 1: Jack Cone, he looked dreadful. They bring in Tyler Buckner.

1100
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 1: He looked good initially, but then he looked dreadful. Yeah,

1101
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:41,680
Speaker 1: and then late in the game they go back to

1102
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,880
Speaker 1: Jack Cone, who looks a little bit like Joe Montana

1103
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 1: late Avery Davis, Yeah, and then Notreday wins.

1104
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1105
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 4: So I don't know.

1106
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 1: Look, I don't know how long this is sustainable. I

1107
00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: guess Notre Dame is still technically in the conversation. I

1108
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 1: don't know how many people are buying Notre Dame as

1109
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 1: any conversation for what Well, they got one. They're going

1110
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 1: to be in the top twelve. No, I'm not buying it.

1111
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:11,160
Speaker 1: I'm just saying they're going to be in the conversation.

1112
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,960
Speaker 1: The quarterback thing is is frustrating, but I think it's

1113
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 1: going to be a committee approach. Don't know what they're

1114
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 1: doing there right, just seems like that's going to be

1115
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 1: the move They've got a bye week here. Maybe they

1116
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,880
Speaker 1: could take the bye week to figure something out and

1117
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 1: decide what they want to do moving forward. But no,

1118
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:32,880
Speaker 1: A wins, A wins win, especially at night in Blacksburg.

1119
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,280
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Notre Dame dealing with a ton

1120
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 1: of injuries. But I guess the upside of that is

1121
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 1: that there are a lot of younger guys getting some work.

1122
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 2: Oh god, by the way, I'm looking at Notre Dame schedule,

1123
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 2: you might be right. Oh my god, I know I'm

1124
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 2: seeing North Carolina and South Bend Navy. Oh man, I

1125
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 2: mean Navy showed some life against SMU Virginia, throwing the

1126
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:57,400
Speaker 2: ball eighty times a game with Renting Armstrong the Jeff

1127
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 2: Simms Bulia Base at Georgia Tech Stanford on the road.

1128
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:06,680
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's very strange this could be. Oh

1129
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:10,320
Speaker 2: my god, what year was it when Notre Dame. It

1130
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,880
Speaker 2: was with Ty Willingham where they just got absolutely shelled

1131
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:14,840
Speaker 2: by Oregon State, like they would win every game by

1132
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:16,919
Speaker 2: four and look bad, but like they just won every

1133
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 2: game ugly and then the blown out by Oregon State

1134
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 2: in the desert. No, Chad Johnson, I think that, Yeah,

1135
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 2: that's where we're heading. I think that's where we're heading

1136
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 2: with this Notre Dame season. I don't know where we're headed,

1137
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 2: but I know where we're headed for Tech. And it's

1138
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 2: gonna be more games like this because this is a

1139
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,440
Speaker 2: gritty team. I saw on one of the Virginia.

1140
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 1: Tech quads this morning. They call out the grid of

1141
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 1: this team. Okay, they play hard, they play hard, They're

1142
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 1: gonna be close with everybody they play.

1143
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the offense is playing on a seventeen yard field

1144
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,440
Speaker 2: like they're just they're giving themselves a ceiling in the

1145
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 2: passing game. And I don't know whose fault that actually is,

1146
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 2: but yeah, they play hard. There's just And we talked

1147
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 2: about this in the season previews show. This is one

1148
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 2: of the very few things we got right. Virginia Tech

1149
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 2: is what we said. We said, Virginia Tech will be fine.

1150
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 2: Where do they pop? Where do they excel? Like nope,

1151
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 2: nowhere they were just fine. Now they're aggressively competent, which

1152
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,920
Speaker 2: is not good enough at Virginia Tech. It's not good

1153
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,439
Speaker 2: enough in Blacksburg. And it was on display once again.

1154
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:21,439
Speaker 2: I mentioned Virginia Keton Thompson, by the way, and under

1155
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:24,400
Speaker 2: the radar, amazing story like will he won't. He transfer

1156
01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 2: from Mississippi State, becomes a quarterback kind of briefly situationally

1157
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 2: for Virginia, and it's just absolutely great as a receiver

1158
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 2: in this comeback win against Louisville on the road, we're

1159
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 2: that this does a Virginia team throwing the ball as

1160
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 2: much as it is. I think there is something about

1161
01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:41,800
Speaker 2: Bronco Mendenhall that he does have that like build the

1162
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,600
Speaker 2: whole plane. If you remember the Bryce Perkins experience, He's like, oh, yeah,

1163
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:46,720
Speaker 2: it's on you, Brennan. We'll see what happens.

1164
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:47,440
Speaker 1: It's on you.

1165
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 2: So whatever, they're winning games and not always winning games.

1166
01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 2: And yeah, Georgia Tech sneaks by Duke and I mentioned

1167
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,680
Speaker 2: the Jeff Simms bullya base. He will fill up the

1168
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 2: stat sheet in every conceivable, good and bad way. You

1169
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:02,720
Speaker 2: want an interesting run, you want an interesting pass. You

1170
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:04,840
Speaker 2: want to fumble, you want an interception, you want red

1171
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 2: zone weirdness, you want inaccurate but also big play like

1172
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:12,720
Speaker 2: the Jeff Simms Bullia base is always being served in Atlanta.

1173
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,440
Speaker 2: Oh And Florida State won two straight games.

1174
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:15,919
Speaker 1: Straight games.

1175
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:16,760
Speaker 3: Bay.

1176
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Florida State looked awesome. They did go over to

1177
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 2: the pack.

1178
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 1: Can I go over to the pack? Twelve?

1179
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:23,240
Speaker 4: Please?

1180
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 2: Thank you?

1181
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 3: No?

1182
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 1: No, why Arizona State beats Stanford. This one was played

1183
01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:33,040
Speaker 1: earlier in the week. We had Wazoo over Oregon State

1184
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: thirty one, twenty four, UCLA one Late Night thirty four

1185
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: to sixteen over Arizona and Utah. Nice one for Utah

1186
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 1: forty two to twenty six. You know one thing that

1187
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,280
Speaker 1: we got some feedback on that we probably should call out.

1188
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:52,800
Speaker 1: Utah has been calling through a lot. Yeah, as a team,

1189
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:55,840
Speaker 1: and you know, we tend to joke around on the

1190
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: show a lot about the goofiness and Calzada's Armada and

1191
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:03,560
Speaker 1: the Jeff Simms Morgas board. But to have a player

1192
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 1: on your team be shot and killed in season is

1193
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:09,240
Speaker 1: very difficult. I can only imagine how difficult that is

1194
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,960
Speaker 1: for the players. They went through an incredibly difficult week

1195
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 1: dealing with his funeral, and you know this is already

1196
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 1: on the heels what went down Jordan. Yeah, awful stuff

1197
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 1: that Kyle Whittingham has had to endure here as coach

1198
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:26,560
Speaker 1: of this team. And for them to kind of come

1199
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 1: out and go up against USC and put in the

1200
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,800
Speaker 1: effort that they did. I think really reveals the character

1201
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 1: of this team, It reveals the character of the coaching staff,

1202
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 1: and it really speaks volumes to I think just how

1203
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 1: tight knit this team is. To go out there, say

1204
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:43,480
Speaker 1: what you want about USC and the state that they're in,

1205
01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:46,520
Speaker 1: but it's still a talented team. And so if you

1206
01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 1: taugh to go out there and do what they did,

1207
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 1: I think it's just damn impressive. Regardless of stats or

1208
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,960
Speaker 1: any of that stuff. Just good on them for pulling together,

1209
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,919
Speaker 1: playing well as a team, and getting a great win. Yeah,

1210
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:01,160
Speaker 1: I can't imagine what It's not just Kyle Whittingham, of course,

1211
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 1: and I don't know you didn't mean that, but like

1212
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 1: the entire Utah football universe, all the players, all the

1213
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,680
Speaker 1: support staff, all of the fan base like something this horrific.

1214
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:11,400
Speaker 1: Going back to Texas for another funeral. As you mentioned

1215
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:13,840
Speaker 1: the Tie Jordan thing, I'm sure it was on some

1216
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:16,520
Speaker 1: level emotionally very cathartic to come out and.

1217
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 2: Play like that. I mean, it's football, It's in the

1218
01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 2: grand scheme of things. It's a game. It's frivolous and

1219
01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:24,760
Speaker 2: this is real life, and just you know, our hearts

1220
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 2: and thoughts are with everybody involved in the situation, and

1221
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 2: I just you know, I can't imagine what everybody's going

1222
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:35,360
Speaker 2: through there. You know, just these are these are human beings.

1223
01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 2: You know, we joke about these things, as you mentioned.

1224
01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 2: But man, good for Utah coming together like they have

1225
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:43,080
Speaker 2: both on and off the field. Good for USC and

1226
01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:47,680
Speaker 2: the PAC twelve sort of really seeming to put out,

1227
01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:50,920
Speaker 2: you know, heartfelt messages of support and everything like that.

1228
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:54,680
Speaker 2: So a horrible situation that no team, no human, nobody

1229
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:55,520
Speaker 2: should have to deal with.

1230
01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 1: We'll shift gears here a little bit. We'll talk about ASU.

1231
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:00,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1232
01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 1: ASU kind of dominated Stanford.

1233
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 2: They did, I mean the first half, first.

1234
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 1: Half kind of dominated Stanford. I was very unconvinced about

1235
01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:17,120
Speaker 1: ASU covering that point spread. Yeah, because ASU has really

1236
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 1: scorned me before in the past. They have not proven

1237
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:25,480
Speaker 1: themselves to be a trustworthy ally. But look good in

1238
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:25,919
Speaker 1: this game.

1239
01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 2: Will you now shift your attention to Oregon struggles? Finally,

1240
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,360
Speaker 2: if you want, you now shift your attention. No, I'm

1241
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:34,320
Speaker 2: just saying because you were you were, like, well, Stanford

1242
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:36,800
Speaker 2: beat Oregon, Like we need to have an organ conversation.

1243
01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:38,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1244
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 2: ASU ran the ball really really well. Stanford has been

1245
01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:42,680
Speaker 2: bad against the run all year long. We've seen it

1246
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:45,120
Speaker 2: week in and week out ASU. They have the weird

1247
01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:47,800
Speaker 2: like lateral pick six in the second half. Good for

1248
01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:50,680
Speaker 2: ASU winning this game comfortably and they did what at

1249
01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:53,080
Speaker 2: least a pretty good team should do against a down

1250
01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:53,880
Speaker 2: Stanford program.

1251
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,000
Speaker 1: And you said you're buying Arizona stock.

1252
01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:00,040
Speaker 2: Why I'm buying Arizona stock, I think just the I

1253
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 2: think a team that is missing as much as they

1254
01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 2: are in terms of depth and talent, they don't have

1255
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 2: a quarterback of the future at the moment. Like I know,

1256
01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,400
Speaker 2: they have a guy committed from southern California who's interesting.

1257
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:14,080
Speaker 2: But against a lot of these teams that have so

1258
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,800
Speaker 2: much more Against Oregon, against UCLA, I mean, they really

1259
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:19,200
Speaker 2: took it to DTR They were right there with Oregon

1260
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,320
Speaker 2: late in that game. Like they're not good enough to

1261
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:25,200
Speaker 2: win these games, and eventually I think they will be.

1262
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:28,480
Speaker 2: I just think they're the Highers have been strong on

1263
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:31,280
Speaker 2: that staff, especially highlighted by Don Brown. If he's able

1264
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,840
Speaker 2: to stick around, if they're able to find guys on

1265
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,560
Speaker 2: the West Coast and maybe Texas as Arizona has done

1266
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:40,360
Speaker 2: in years past, I think there's something to Arizona in

1267
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:45,400
Speaker 2: a wide open, nonsense PAC twelve I'm willing to buy

1268
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 2: Arizona as an ascending team now. It's difficult to say

1269
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 2: when they've lost as many games as they have, but no,

1270
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 2: I'm encouraged by that that they don't look like Colorado

1271
01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:58,920
Speaker 2: has looked like largely at Nightmare in the year two

1272
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,360
Speaker 2: of Carl Derrel. They won a bunch of games last year,

1273
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 2: but there's a hopelessness to Colorado. And not to pick

1274
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:08,240
Speaker 2: on the Buffs, because I love the Buffs, but there's

1275
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 2: a hopelessness to teams facing situations like Arizona's facing that

1276
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,240
Speaker 2: I don't see in the Cats. So I'm buying stock early.

1277
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:16,840
Speaker 1: And I watched most of this game late night. I

1278
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: was okay taking notes and whatnot. They definitely seem more organized.

1279
01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 2: I think Jordan McLeod threw like five interceptions at Oregon

1280
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:29,240
Speaker 2: and they were still in that game much later than

1281
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 2: they should have been, So I think it's an encouraging signs.

1282
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:35,680
Speaker 2: That's a deep, deep cut though, that's a conversation for

1283
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:40,360
Speaker 2: the off season. Good for Wazoo for getting better over

1284
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:42,600
Speaker 2: the course of a game. Jayden DeLaura made plays, doa

1285
01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:45,480
Speaker 2: McIntosh made plays. Oregon State is a tough, tough out

1286
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 2: Oregon State went for it, and I always appreciate that

1287
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 2: in some bigger spots where they could have punted field

1288
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:54,040
Speaker 2: goal whatever, and Wazoo came up with stops and they

1289
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 2: won that game late. Good for Wazoo. It's been a

1290
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:01,160
Speaker 2: we'll call it a trying, weird year Nick Polman thus far,

1291
01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:02,960
Speaker 2: and I don't know what the future holds for Nick

1292
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:06,120
Speaker 2: Rolovich in that program and where they where the leadership

1293
01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:10,200
Speaker 2: goes because of the vaccine mandate in Washington, but on

1294
01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:13,680
Speaker 2: a mikedmore micro level. Good for those players, Good for

1295
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:15,600
Speaker 2: Wazoo as a program for getting over the hump.

1296
01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: Four other games here, just to call out very quickly.

1297
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:22,520
Speaker 1: Cincinnati runs one up on Temple fifty two to three.

1298
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:28,480
Speaker 1: We had SMU by seven over nine comeback, we had

1299
01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,880
Speaker 1: comeback thirty one to twenty four. Coastal runs one up

1300
01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:35,320
Speaker 1: on the Arkansas State red Wolves fifty two to twenty.

1301
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:39,439
Speaker 1: And San Diego State thirty one to two seven over

1302
01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: New Mexico. Any other games that we should call out.

1303
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 1: Dan Northern Illinois winning football games. They beat Georgia Tech

1304
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:47,680
Speaker 1: early on. They now go to four and two with

1305
01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:50,959
Speaker 1: a win over Toledo. Bowling Green came in We mentioned

1306
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 1: this on Solid Saturday show as the only undefeated team

1307
01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 1: against the spread. They go up and then Akron Akron

1308
01:07:58,080 --> 01:07:59,400
Speaker 1: lays it on the Falcons.

1309
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:01,120
Speaker 2: So good for Kron on the road. They've been kind

1310
01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:03,800
Speaker 2: of a disaster. We had the UMass game. Did you

1311
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,720
Speaker 2: did you pay any attention UMass yukon U Mass ends

1312
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,800
Speaker 2: up winning that game. Yeah, in sort of a nightmare

1313
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:11,120
Speaker 2: match up, a nightmare scenario.

1314
01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:12,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1315
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,919
Speaker 2: Colorado State has had a disappointing year, but so Hessan

1316
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:18,479
Speaker 2: Jose State. Now the Spartan's lost to the Rams of

1317
01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:20,960
Speaker 2: Colorado State, who started their own season losing to an

1318
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,719
Speaker 2: FCS team, UCF with a nice win with a backup

1319
01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:28,360
Speaker 2: quarterback over ECU. UTEP is a five and one team tie.

1320
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,879
Speaker 2: You're a big UTEP guy, aren't you? The miners of UTEP.

1321
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:35,080
Speaker 2: I mean Southern miss is going to struggle for a

1322
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 2: little bit. I have to look it up. It's Gavin

1323
01:08:37,439 --> 01:08:39,840
Speaker 2: Hardison who came in having a better season than he

1324
01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:42,800
Speaker 2: had a game against Southern Miss. U tip is five

1325
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:47,800
Speaker 2: and one U TEP, Yeah is five and one. I

1326
01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:50,240
Speaker 2: just shouted out, man, I don't know when when there's

1327
01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:54,320
Speaker 2: like good stories of improvement and competence. Western Kentucky loses

1328
01:08:54,360 --> 01:09:00,680
Speaker 2: in a shootout against the UTSA. The row Runners two

1329
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,040
Speaker 2: really good quarterbacks. Bailey's appy tie, I don't have the

1330
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:06,280
Speaker 2: sound at my disposal five hundred and twenty three yards.

1331
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,240
Speaker 2: You might have this in a losing efforts.

1332
01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:09,000
Speaker 1: I do have it.

1333
01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1334
01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:17,519
Speaker 2: Otherwise, air Force Wyoming was a matchup between teams that

1335
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:19,519
Speaker 2: hadn't lost a bunch, but air Force now moves to

1336
01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,200
Speaker 2: five and one themselves really strong defense. They win that

1337
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,360
Speaker 2: game twenty four to fourteen. Just to mention that Utah

1338
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 2: USC game away from Utah, Drake London is fully unguardable

1339
01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:31,080
Speaker 2: and it is a It is a disaster for the

1340
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,960
Speaker 2: sport that he is playing for a below average, woeful

1341
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:37,479
Speaker 2: Trojan team because he is an incredible, incredible watch and

1342
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 2: I wish he were just on a bigger stage than

1343
01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 2: playing for USC. And Carson Strong and Nevada put it

1344
01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 2: on New Mexico State. Memphis lost Memphis American Tulsa. Philip

1345
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:48,960
Speaker 2: Montgomery a little bit on the hot seat with a

1346
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:52,240
Speaker 2: nice win at home as Tulsa moves to two and four.

1347
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:54,800
Speaker 2: Do you have any I can bring up the pat

1348
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:56,120
Speaker 2: League scores really really.

1349
01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,880
Speaker 1: Quick now that's fine. We're good. We're good. We don't

1350
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:01,839
Speaker 1: need to look at that. At least.

1351
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:08,120
Speaker 2: Lehigh does not score once again. Oh man, but Quakers

1352
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,160
Speaker 2: twenty the engineer is zero.

1353
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,040
Speaker 1: Maybe to Kwan Roberson could transfer to Lehigh.

1354
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:17,920
Speaker 2: I mean, what is Penn State's quarterback situation. It's it's

1355
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:19,439
Speaker 2: our medium term, long term.

1356
01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: It's put Sean Clifford in some sort of cryogenic healer

1357
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:26,200
Speaker 1: and get him back out there, because.

1358
01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:28,680
Speaker 2: We weren't even sure if he was going to come

1359
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:29,360
Speaker 2: back this year.

1360
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Clifford. I never thought I'd be this confident in

1361
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 1: Sean Clifford. But Clifford is the answer this year. You know,

1362
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:42,799
Speaker 1: they've got some prospects coming in here in the near future.

1363
01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 1: Hopefully drewe Lair will will maintain his commitment to Penn State,

1364
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:52,439
Speaker 1: but he would seemingly be the future. Okay, unclear as

1365
01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:54,959
Speaker 1: to what we do in the present though. If Clifford's

1366
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,639
Speaker 1: going to be out for any extended period of time,

1367
01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,200
Speaker 1: He's a tough kid. My guess is that, yeah, he'll

1368
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:01,559
Speaker 1: want to be out there can if there's any way,

1369
01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:06,839
Speaker 1: he will be out there, But unclear at this juncture

1370
01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:09,560
Speaker 1: as to what that actually means. If that's going to

1371
01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:10,000
Speaker 1: be doable.

1372
01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:13,360
Speaker 2: So we'll see Oklahoma State, Oklahoma State, Texas next week,

1373

01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:14,919
Speaker 2: Thompson I mentioned for Virginia, Will levis doing everything for Kentucky.

1390
01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 2: And how about Isaiah likely Coastal Carolina. Yeah, a bu

1391
01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:21,600
Speaker 2: jillion yards receiving against Arkansas State midweek? How about that?

1392
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:28,160
Speaker 1: Alrighty well, fun show, great week of college football, great

1393
01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:31,719
Speaker 1: week of your reverbs, great week to be a college

1394
01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 1: football fan. Yes, unless you're a fan of Alabama, in

1395
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:38,400
Speaker 1: which case we apologize for that. We didn't do it.

1396
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:42,519
Speaker 1: But I will say that after so many years of

1397
01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:46,320
Speaker 1: getting to Week six and feeling like the end was

1398
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,599
Speaker 1: inevitable that it was going to be Alabama and Clemson

1399
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:53,799
Speaker 1: or Alabama and anybody, for the first time in maybe

1400
01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:57,120
Speaker 1: the entirety of us doing this podcast, it feels like

1401
01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:00,840
Speaker 1: there is some bit of doubt as to who our

1402
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 1: final four teams are going to be, who the eventual

1403
01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:06,639
Speaker 1: national champion is going to be. I've got some likely contenders,

1404
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:10,040
Speaker 1: as I'm sure you do, but I can't remember a

1405
01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:13,040
Speaker 1: time in recent memory where it feels like so much

1406
01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:15,479
Speaker 1: is very much up for grabs.

1407
01:13:15,680 --> 01:13:17,920
Speaker 2: What the worst Saturday as a fan base? If you

1408
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:20,840
Speaker 2: are a fan of this team, like I understand how

1409
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:23,360
Speaker 2: terrible it is to be a fan of a team

1410
01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:26,519
Speaker 2: in Penn State situation, where there's just no hope once

1411
01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:28,799
Speaker 2: you see that the offense is going nowhere with the backup.

1412
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:31,280
Speaker 2: That's really tough. And to have it drive after drive

1413
01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 2: after drive. Is it Nebraska? Yeah, I think it's Alabama's tough,

1414
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:37,479
Speaker 2: but like it's on the road, like.

1415
01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:41,080
Speaker 1: No, I don't look, you can't feel that Damas won out.

1416
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:48,000
Speaker 1: I think it's probably some combination of NEBRASKI of Penn State.

1417
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:54,639
Speaker 1: I don't want to say LSU because LSU is still

1418
01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 1: just a couple a couple of years removed from that

1419
01:13:56,640 --> 01:14:02,000
Speaker 1: incredible championship. Right, Is it Arkansas? Arkansas had a chance.

1420
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:02,960
Speaker 1: You feel bad for them?

1421
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:03,720
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1422
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:06,160
Speaker 1: A couple teams you could throw in there.

1423
01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:10,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think my answer is Nebraska. I

1424
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,400
Speaker 2: think it probably hurt the most to be a Nebraska

1425
01:14:12,479 --> 01:14:14,800
Speaker 2: fan yesterday. We might guess, although they might be used

1426
01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:15,360
Speaker 2: to it, I don't know.
