1
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: Look at that stack of papers in my hand, Jesse,

2
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever had a show like this,

3
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: as jam packed, overflowing as a show has ever been.

4
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: We're high atop an explosive downtown Nashville, Tennessee.

5
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 2: Did I not tell you guys? Tuesday night we were.

6
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: About one or two results away from a cataclysmic coaching

7
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: carousel kicking into gear. Well it's kicked into gear. James

8
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: Franklin has lost his job. He is out as Penn

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 1: State head coach. Trent dil For also out at UAB.

10
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: I'll let you guess which one we're going to lead

11
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: the show with. Although Trent dil For Friend of the

12
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: Program Full Week seven reaction. It's Sunday night. A ton

13
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: happened yesterday, so we got to talk about all that

14
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: on top of James Franklin being fired. The AP pole

15
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: is out, and that's about as much as I can

16
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: say for the AP pole. But you know what, they're

17
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: starting to get their act together. I cannot say the

18
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: same for SEC officiating. It is a disaster the likes

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: of which I don't know that I've seen in a

20
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: long time. And if you watched the Georgia Auburn game

21
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: last night. Bless you, bless you if you had five

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: and a half spare hours to watch a four quarter

23
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: football game. Really a football game was more the side show.

24
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: Officials were the main event down in Auburn, Alabama last night,

25
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: because that's what we love about college football and sports

26
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: in general, when the players and the coaches don't decide

27
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: it so much, but the officials, that's who we really

28
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: pay our money to see. Drugs And I'm going to

29
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 1: reveal our week eight destination. I'm going to reveal the

30
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: best bets the ram Noudle Express just clicking along about

31
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: fifty five percent, still waiting to hit that ten and

32
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: oer week and I got two games that I want

33
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: to move on tonight. Look, I'm going to talk very

34
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: very fast. Number one because I'm hopped up on a

35
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: lot of caffeine. And number two because if you listen

36
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: to this sound, that is how loaded, that's how jam

37
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: packed the show is. There's a lot of gravity when

38
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: I drop these papers right now.

39
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 2: So we got to move tonight or we're gonna be here.

40
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: What was the over under an hour fifty nine minutes,

41
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: FanDuel really sharp with those lines. We'll see what they know. Jonesboro,

42
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: Georgia is tuned in Hampton, Virginia, Los angele Lees, California.

43
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: As stone Cold Steve Austin would say in Cedar Park, Texas,

44
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, guys, I gotta tell you, I gotta.

45
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Tell you.

46
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: We have got we got the most crazy coaching carousel

47
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: season that you have seen in a long time. Upon

48
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: US playoff season is about to be here. The stretch

49
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: run of conference championship races is about to be here.

Speaker 2: is all we do.

56
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: I could not care less about the NBA trade deadline,

57
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: all due respect to hockey. Don't care that they've dropped

58
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: the puck over at Bridgetone Arena. Go Preds. We're college

60
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: let's dive into the show.

61
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 2: Huge news.

62
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: James Franklin is out as of about lunchtime today as

63
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: head coach of Penn State. Fifteen days ago, James Franklin

64
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: was the head coach of a top five team up

65
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: seven in overtime against Oregon. Today he is out of

66
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: a job. He is unemployed as of today. I told

67
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: you at the conclusion of that game the following night

68
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: that Oregon loss was more than one game, and I

69
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: know the glass half full approach to that was, oh,

70
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: it's just one conference loss.

71
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: Well it wasn't. It wasn't.

72
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: If you know Penn State football, you know that was

73
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: a lot more than just one loss. The reason it

74
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: was a lot more than one loss because that team

75
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: was on the brink. It was built in such a

76
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: way they hoped that it could compete for the richest

77
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: prize that this sport has to offer. The problem with

78
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: that in the modern age is if that's how you're geared,

79
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: that's how you're engineered your team, and then they realize, uh,

80
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: oh we're going to fall short of that. They really

81
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: could just take the foot off the gas permanently. And

82
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,119
Speaker 1: that's what happened to Penn State football this year. Long

83
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: story short, much longer story told. They never should have

84
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: gone and higher gym knowles Andy Colet and Nicky married

85
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: up and Drew Aler was oil and water offensively, but

86
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 1: that's the longer story. The shorter version is James Franklin

87
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: in his twelfth season as the head coach at Penn State,

88
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: double digit win seasons the last three years, thirty four

89
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: and eight, the last three years, two college football playoff

90
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: wins last year, one play away from the national title

91
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: game last year.

92
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: Is no longer good.

93
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: Enough to be the head coach at Penn State. That's

94
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: the short version of that. In fact, James Franklin was

95
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: so out of place, was so ill qualified to be

96
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: the head coach of Penn State now and moving forward,

97
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: that they were willing to pay him somewhere along the

98
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: lines of fifty million dollars not to coach there anymore.

99
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: That's how certain they are. They think they can do

100
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: better than James Franklin. I think they're insane, but that's

101
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: how much better they think they can do than James Franklin. Now,

102
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 1: I'm old enough to have remembered when Florida was ignorant

103
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: enough to feel the same way and got rid of

104
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: Dan Mullen. I'm old enough to remember when Auburn was

105
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: ignorant enough to think the same way and they got

106
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: rid of Gus Malzan. Now there were moments in both

107
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: of those respective tenures when I looked and said, I

108
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 1: don't know if Dan Mullen's ever going to win a

109
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: title at Florida.

110
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 2: I don't know if Malzan's ever going to win a

111
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: title at Auburn.

112
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: I have since realized that it is not ten or

113
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: trash in college football. It's not the top rung of

114
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: the ladder or the bottom rung of the ladder. There

115
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: happened to be several rungs on the ladder. That's the

116
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: nature of a ladder. And in the coaching profession, you

117
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: got the best, you got the worst, and most guys

118
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: are somewhere in between. And James Franklin, by my estimation,

119
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: was way closer to the top than the bottom. But

120
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: Penn State is sure that they can do better than him.

121
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 1: So they're going to pay, in this economy, fifty million

122
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: or so dollars to prove it to themselves. That's not

123
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: to mention what they're going to have to pay the

124
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: new staff, and we don't even know who that's going

125
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: to be. I've got thoughts on it. In a second,

126
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: I have listen, I need to be very respectful here.

127
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: I've got one in my midst right now, and I

128
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: got thousands upon thousands watching and listening. I know Penn

129
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: State fans were tired of him. I know what your

130
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 1: standard is for your program.

131
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 2: I get it.

132
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: I'd feel the same way. I'm up there a lot.

133
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: I love Penn State.

134
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: I get it.

135
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: You think you should be competing for national championships because

136
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: you invest every bit emotionally and financially to the same

137
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: degree that Ohio State does. Ohio State just won a title.

138
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 1: Ohio State's won multiple titles in most of your lifetimes.

139
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: Why can't you I get that logic, completely understand it.

140
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: I'm also respectful that this is your program. This is

141
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: not my program, so really your opinion matters more than mine.

142
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: But the sign says it's my show, so that's why

143
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: I'm on my show. Given my opinion, I think firing

144
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: him is insane. I think Penn State firing him right

145
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: now off of thirty four and eight the past three years,

146
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: one play away from a National Championship appearance last year

147
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: is insane, and thinking you can do better, to the

148
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: tune of paying fifty million in buyout money to prove

149
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: it is insane to me. I don't think people have

150
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: recalibrated their college football worldview to account for the modern.

151
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: Age of college football.

152
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: It's what I'm saying, You're still living in a world

153
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: and you're not the only ones where nine wins is

154
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: the floor. The best programs, the top ten or so

155
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: programs in the country. You're still living in a world

156
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: where you think nine wins that's worst case. It's not

157
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: worst case. That ain't worst case anywhere anymore. And that

158
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: even includes Ohio State or Georgia or Alabama, not necessarily

159
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: this year. I'm saying, when the worst happens, and maybe

160
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: it'll be twenty twenty nine, or maybe it'll be twenty

161
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: twenty six, or maybe for Penn State it was this year.

162
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: Nine wins is no longer the floor. The rosters are thinner,

163
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,559
Speaker 1: the motivation is different for a million day, different reasons.

164
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: The dynamics have changed to college football, and you have

165
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: got to bake in the possibility of a dead season.

166
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: The best of the best have to bake in that possibility,

167
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: and I don't think they have. I don't think fan

168
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: bases have, I don't think donors have in some cases,

169
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: I don't think administrative types have. And they have a

170
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: dead season on their hands at Penn State. Now, my

171
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: belief is what would have happened had they kept him

172
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: in places, They would have lost several more games this year,

173
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: because a dead team's a dead team. They don't become

174
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: any less dead the weeks go by, and it would

175
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: have been a really, really ugly record, and then they

176
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: would have taken drastic steps after the season to try

177
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: and change the outcome next year. Next year was already

178
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: going to be kind of a rebuild for them.

179
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 2: Anyway.

180
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: I'm not sitting here trying to tell you it went

181
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: the way it was supposed to go this year. It didn't.

182
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: They made calculated moves. He made calculated moves and decisions

183
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: they missed on them, and you're paying the price. What

184
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying is, you can admit all that and also

185
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: admit this guy's been really good in his twelve year run.

186
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 2: Here.

187
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: Mind you, that twelve year run is coming not too

188
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 1: far on the heels of some of the most scandal

189
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: plagued eras in college football history, and this guy didn't

190
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: have a whiff of it. I've been around a lot

191
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: of head coaches. I will tell you there are a

192
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 1: few that I have ever observed from a distance and

193
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: up close that I was convinced had the overarching best

194
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: interest of college athletics and doing it the right way

195
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: at the forefront of their decision making, more than James Franklin.

196
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: And that's not to paint him as a boy scout.

197
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is I thought he had a lot

198
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: more equity built up than this. That's what I'm saying.

199
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: So just I know where fan sentiment was. I know that,

200
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 1: just like with Auburn and Malson, I know how fan

201
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: sentiment had turned there. I remember it with Dan Mullen.

202
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: I know how fan sentiment had turned. But see, you

203
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: know what no one wanted. No one wanted during the

204
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: Brian Hart year to be reminded that they asked for this.

205
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: No one up to an including this moment in Gainesville, Florida,

206
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: wants to be reminded of their posts on message boards

207
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: or their calls into talk radio shows. Hey you wanted this. No,

208
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: I didn't ask to hire Billy. I didn't ask to

209
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: hire Brian Harson.

210
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no.

211
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: You asked for the previous guy who was doing a

212
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: better job to be fired. And at that point a

213
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 1: million variables are in play that goes for Penn State.

214
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: You don't know who you can hire. You know, you

215
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: got a lot of money up there, and you think

216
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 1: your job's among the best in the country, And for

217
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: the record, I do as well. But I'm not in

218
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,559
Speaker 1: the job market right now. I'm happily at Pate State,

219
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: and I've told my agent do not take calls. But

220
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: are you really going to do definitively better than that?

221
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: You were the eighth throng on a ten rung ladder.

222
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: I'd love to be rung ten as well. I'd love

223
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: to have Kirby or Ryan Day or Nick Saban or whoever.

224
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: I'd love to have Dan Lanning. I'd love to have

225
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: those guys as well. How many of them are there

226
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: out there? You better have one. That's the only thing

227
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 1: that makes this kind of decision worth it. And I

228
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: understand the principle also that what must be done eventually

229
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: must be done immediately. I actually believe in that. I

230
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: don't think this had to be done eventually. Therefore, I

231
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,199
Speaker 1: think it's insane that it was done immediately. But I'm

232
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: not the decision maker up there, So if the athletic

233
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: director or board of trustees or hoopstever in the Penn

234
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: State circle is ultimately the one that pulls the lever.

235
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: Decided we're going to pull the lever eventually. Yes, even

236
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: if I disagree with it, you do need to pull

237
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: it immediately. It's very tough for me, and now I'm

238
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: gonna speak personally, it's very tough for me to remove

239
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: the human element on this one of the one of

240
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: the There are two reasons why I don't do hot

241
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: seat talk a whole lot on the show. The first

242
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: is because it's most always speculative and clickbait ish, and

243
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: despite the fact that they call me clickbait pait, sometimes

244
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: I actually don't trafficking that a whole lot. Secondly, I

245
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: know a lot of these guys, and the reason I

246
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: never call myself a journalist is because I'm not a journalist.

247
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm just a person who gives my opinions. Another reason

248
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: I don't call myself a journalist is because I have

249
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: bias baked in all the time. I've got guys that

250
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: I disproportionately root for. The accusation we get a lot

251
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: in our business is oh, you root for teams, you

252
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: root for this team, you hate that team. Well, that's

253
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: never the case with me. I got coaches I root for.

254
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: James Franklin was one of them. I love James Franklin.

255
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: So it highly pisses me off that this happened today,

256
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: and it really kind of went down the way it

257
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: went down, all the while acknowledging it's your program, it's

258
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: not my program. But here's the third part. I guess

259
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: there are three reasons why I don't do the hot

260
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 1: seat talking. I don't take to it very well. There's

261
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: this belief in society that if you make millions of dollars,

262
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: you're different. If you make millions of dollars, then the

263
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: human element is ok to be removed, and fundamentally, I've

264
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: never felt that way. I don't feel that way if

265
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: you make ten million dollars a year, ten billion dollars

266
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: a year, or ten dollars a year, although the third

267
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: would be a violation and we do need to talk

268
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: to a legal type about that.

269
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 2: But I've never been this.

270
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: Guy that thinks, hey, if you're bringing home fifty two

271
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: and change a year, you're just like the rest of us.

272
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: But if you're making ten million dollars a year, I

273
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 1: don't really care how things affect your family. You know,

274
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: I don't really care personally how you feel about this

275
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: or that because you've got a lot of money.

276
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't care.

277
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: I've been in both positions in life, so I kind

278
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: of have experienced it a little bit. And I understand

279
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: whether you're broker a billionaire, human emotions, human emotion, and

280
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: I do understand the fact that this guy's going to

281
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: land somewhere in the range of fifty million dollars hardens

282
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: you a little bit. If you're just a normal person,

283
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: It hardens you a little bit to feeling sorry for

284
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: someone because you look in the mirror every morning and

285
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: you know what real problems are. I can relate to that.

286
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: I know good and well what you're talking about. What

287
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 1: I'm also saying is if I think if I could

288
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: take you guys just around the country with me, take

289
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: you to Penn State, sit you down for a day,

290
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: spend a day with James Franklin, observe the family dynamic

291
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: behind the scenes, watch how all in that guy is

292
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: on doing it the right way. See, it's one thing

293
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: if you find out there's all this stuff going on

294
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: behind the scenes and he took advantage of our program

295
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: or he did this wrong. He ran a foul of that.

296
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: That's a little bit different James Franklin. They don't paint

297
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: him like that because he's not like that. So the

298
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: guy just fought as hard as he could. He tried

299
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: as hard as he could. It ends up not being

300
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: good enough, and so he gets fired. That's what happens

301
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: in the adult world. A lot of us have experienced

302
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: that before. He's experiencing it. I mean, he's going to

303
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: be out of football professionally for the first time. At

304
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: at least it's the mid nineties, Jesse. We were looking

305
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: at his Wikipedia page. I can't tell if he's ever

306
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: been fired before. So all that, you know, you can

307
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: either feel sorry for it to not feel sorry for it.

308
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: I've always had a problem removing the human element. Like

309
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: I watch his daughter walk off the field, and some

310
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: people will say, oh, he does that theatrically, he does

311
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: that for show. Well, let me tell you something. I've

312
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: been in that building on a Tuesday afternoon when she's

313
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: there as well. There are no cameras around. So no, no,

314
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: it's not all like that. It's just kind of the

315
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: dynamic around Penn State. Around James Franklin I've always had

316
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: problem removing myself from that. So I always feel for

317
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: these guys because I know they're football lifers, and so

318
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: at a certain point, it doesn't matter how much money

319
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: I give them. You're working like a sixteen hour day.

320
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't really matter your family's spending the money. You're

321
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: not really spending the money. Ironically, this is when you

322
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: spend the money when you get fired. Who are they

323
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: going to hire? Where's Penn State gonna go? I can

324
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: tell already by looking at some of the lists out

325
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: there and hearing some of the chatter, some folks are

326
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: gonna overthink the room. Penn State is open now. The

327
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: Penn State head coaching job is open right now. Penn

328
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: State is not the only major job that's gonna come open.

329
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: And I can already tell by putting my ear to

330
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: the ground, people are going to overthink the room on this.

331
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: So I'm going to do you a favor. Peate State

332
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: Committee over here is just running coaching searches for you guys,

333
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: free of charge. Matt Campbell is the best candidate available

334
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: out there. He's the best candidate out of all the

335
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: lists that I've.

336
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 2: Seen out there.

337
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: Are you're looking for flash, or you're looking for a

338
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: football coach. If you're looking for flash, lookoutswhere. If you're

339
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: looking for a stud football coach, he's just in plain sight.

340
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: He's right there at Iowa State. Iowa State was in

341
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: a conference title game last year. Iowa State is horrible historically,

342
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: and Matt Campbell's won consistently there. What Matt Campbell's done

343
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: at Iowa State is right on par with what some

344
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: other coaches have done in literal national championship runs at

345
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: more major programs.

346
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: And I suggested it to someone today. Let me tell

347
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: you why.

348
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: I know there's so much ignorance in this process. I

349
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: suggested it today to a person at a place, not

350
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: Penn State, but at a place that will be soon

351
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: in the market for a new head coach. Guys, I'm

352
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 1: telling you it's about to be crazy. Just get ready

353
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: for it. Some of them you can tell, are going

354
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: to come open. There are a couple of major ones

355
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: that are going to come open. They are not on

356
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,239
Speaker 1: your radar right now, so just get ready. Anyway, I

357
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 1: was talking to someone and it will be involved in

358
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: one of those coaching searches. They asked, who do you think,

359
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: I said, Campbell like, are you an idiot?

360
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 2: Campbell?

361
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: He said, own, Man, they lost Colorado last night. At

362
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: that point, I just throw my hands up. You are

363
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: not quality. You are the reason why so many schools

364
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: are tied up in buyouts being paid. You have no

365
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: idea how to properly qualify candidates, how to properly vet candidates,

366
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: how to properly filter candidates. You're looking at Matt Campbell

367
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: right now, and if the first question in your mind is, oh,

368
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: is he really the right guard for the job? I mean,

369
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: they lost to Colorado last night. I happened to watch

370
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: a lot of Iowa State, so yeah, they sure didn't

371
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 1: lose to Colorado. Down a starting tailback, lost their nose

372
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 1: guard in the game, down two starting corners for the year,

373
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 1: just sent two wide receivers to the draft again from

374
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: Iowa State. I believe they were down to their thirst

375
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: string kicker. Yeah, man, Iowa States sure did come up

376
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: short last night. Coaching season, coaching carousel season, man insanity.

377
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 1: I will say this again, and I will move on,

378
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 1: because we got a lot of show.

379
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 2: To get to.

380
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: You have never been more underwhelmed than you would be

381
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: if I could take you behind the curtain and you

382
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 1: could watch how coaching searches actually operate. And if you

383
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,360
Speaker 1: want evidence of that, look no further than Chapel Hill,

384
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: North Carolina, where Bill Belichick is inexplicably the current head

385
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 1: coach at North Carolina. How did that happen? Because all

386
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: the wrong people get involved in coaching searches. And just

387
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 1: as sure as I say that, I'll go look at

388
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: the live chat later, I'll look at comments. I'm using

389
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: Campbell as an example because I think you'll win. Anywhere

390
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: he goes, there will be people who look at Matt

391
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 1: Campbell and just oh, Matt Campbell. They'll dismiss it like

392
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: you had no clue what actually wins in college football.

393
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: So whatever, I'll keep him an Eyewa state. I'm just saying.

394
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: So many people are gonna ask who I would hire.

395
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: I'd hire Matt Campbell in a nano second, if you

396
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: can get him, if you can get him quick trip

397
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: fueling us no matter where we go. I mean, look,

398
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 1: James Franklin, I picture him like Andy Dufrain. Now, he

399
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: didn't want to break out of Penn State, so it

400
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: wasn't Shawshank in that way. But he's free now, and

401
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: so maybe you know his wind. His hair certainly not

402
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: blowing in the wind like Andy Dufrain. And it's not

403
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: the Pacific in his rear view mirror. Maybe like the

404
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: Gulf of Mexico or something like that. But I picture

405
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: him just cruising. Maybe he pulls into a Quick Trip tonight.

406
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: Maybe who knows?

407
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 2: You can?

408
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: Though we did, I know goodwell we did. Over the

409
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: weekend we were up in Missouri and a lot of

410
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: you were all over the place had a grand opening

411
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: or a reopening in Westchester, Ohio. Several Chalaive Supremacy will

412
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: be on the way five.

413
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 2: To be exact. For those of you who tagged us.

414
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: Make sure, by the way, when you stop at Quick Trip,

415
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 1: like dozens and dozens, if you tag me every day,

416
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: make sure you tag them Quick Trip. Joe's phone should

417
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: be inundated with people tagging me and Quick Trip in

418
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: your visits. But where we going this week? It's what

419
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 1: everyone wants to know. Eh, it's a little pretentious. Some

420
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: people probably want to know where we're going this week.

421
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: Well let me tell you where the fall don't lie

422
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: to her is going this week right down the street

423
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: to Vanderbilt. Because I promised to those people at Vanderbilt

424
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: if you win, we will be there. And they have

425
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: started winning, and we went to a game last year

426
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: and they're still winning, and we're going to go to

427
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 1: a game this year. LSU's in town this week. LSU's

428
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: in town. LSU off a win against South Carolina last

429
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: night that we'll talk about later. Vandy's off a bye.

430
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: I happen to believe Vandy is a very good team

431
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: that has another run in them.

432
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:53,479
Speaker 2: But we'll see.

433
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: They're a slight favorite at FanDuel. Yes, you heard me right,

434
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: Vanderbilt is favored slightly against. You will be there Nashville, Tennessee.

435
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: We're going all the way to Nashville, Tennessee. Good people

436
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 1: in Nashville, Jesse. You got some people in Nashville, don't you.

437
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: All right, let's roll on. Got a lot of people

438
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: watching live, guys, Thank you.

439
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 2: It's free.

440
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: You don't have to pay a dime. Just make sure

441
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the channel. That's all you need to do.

442
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: We have actual games to talk about. Not everyone's been

443
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: fired around here yet. Texas put it on Oklahoma yesterday

444
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 1: twenty three to six. This game was presented by Academy

445
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: and Steve Sarkisian. They're not associated with each other. Legally,

446
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: I have to say that I would give this game

447
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: to Chalai. It's a five Chalai classic if you're a

448
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 1: Texas fan. But if you're a fan of aesthetically pleasing games, no,

449
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: this one wasn't necessarily for you. And no, I also

450
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,479
Speaker 1: want to confirm we did not get the game script

451
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: ahead of time. Although you wouldn't be able to tell

452
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: by how we predicted this game. I will go on

453
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: record of saying this, Steve Sarkish himself does not know

454
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: Texas as well as I know Texas this year. I

455
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: predicted these folks to go lose at Florida a couple

456
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: of weeks ago and got labeled a Texas hater. I

457
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: then turned right around and say, now, now, way, do

458
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: you see what happens Now, now they lost to Florida,

459
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: they will go win Red River shootout.

460
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 2: I never hesitated, did I? Jesse.

461
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: I walked into the building Sunday and I said, they're

462
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 1: gonna beat ou. Never change my mind, and we told

463
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: you the exact way they do it. So this is

464
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 1: the way college football works.

465
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 2: Guys. Why did we have Texas over Oe?

466
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: You and the JP poll that was the first that

467
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: was the first slight alarm bell that should have gone off.

468
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: How did Texas open as a favorite in this game?

469
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 1: A lot of people thought it was because John Matteer

470
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: wasn't going to start. Buddy, I like John Mattier starting

471
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: or not starting still to lose to Texas. Not because

472
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: I doubt John Matteer. It's because I looked at the

473
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: two teams. Hey, this was my Heisman Trophy winner, so

474
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: I certainly doubt John. I didn't doubt John mattere But

475
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 1: the world had already seen Texas struggle on the offensive line.

476
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,719
Speaker 1: They had seen Texas struggle to run the ball. And

477
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 1: you know what they did. They completely ignored Oklahoma struggling

478
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 1: the exact same way because Texas had faced better competition. Well,

479
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: I looked at OU's tailbacks and Jay Not's been a

480
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: crushing disappointment. I really thought he'd do big things this

481
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: year and he just hasn't so far. But outside of

482
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 1: John Mattiir running the ball, I looked and I said, man,

483
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: they're tailbacks against power four teams are under three yards

484
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: per carry. That's not going to change against Texas?

485
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 2: Is it?

486
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: A very desperate, wounded animal mode styled Texas, and it didn't.

487
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 1: Their tailbacks had fifteen carries for forty two yards in

488
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: this game. This was about knowns versus truths. People knew

489
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 1: Texas's struggles, but the truth was, oh, you struggling just

490
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: as much. It's just they hadn't been exposed yet. They

491
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: were still undefeated. Well they're not undefeated anymore. And you

492
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: know what else came in play here that I was

493
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: hopeful about, but I still had to see it, the

494
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: pride and performance factor. I used that phrase a lot

495
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: last week towards Texas, purposefully number one, because I hope

496
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: folks in the building heard it. Number two, it's called

497
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: how I felt it's inexplicable for Texas to be out

498
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 1: of contention before Halloween. That roster's too good, that building

499
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: is too full of what I think are very high

500
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: level football people, and there's no reason they should be

501
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 1: toting a third l coming out of Dallas. Firstly, arch

502
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 1: Manning ended up being the better quarterback in this game.

503
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: Here's what I didn't say. Arch Manning shined in this game.

504
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: I didn't say that what I think is happening with

505
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: Arch is week over week. It's just a slow build.

506
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,439
Speaker 1: He is not an elite quarterback. He did not have

507
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: an elite game yesterday. What he had was an efficient game.

508
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: There's a goose egg in THET column there. His counterpart

509
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 1: cannot say that he was a nearly a seventy eight

510
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 1: percent completion guy yesterday. It's really weird because you complete

511
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: twenty one balls for one hundred and sixty six yards.

512
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: You didn't have to push it down the field a

513
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: whole lot. Note you probably weren't going to be able

514
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: to if you needed to, but you didn't need to

515
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,239
Speaker 1: because Texas has got an all world defense they can

516
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 1: lean on. It's a very complimentary game if you play

517
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 1: it the right way. Mateir was pressured on twenty five

518
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 1: or forty eight drop backs yesterday. The pride and performance

519
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 1: is a little something like this. Arts Manning and the

520
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: team overall kind of get stuffed in a locker at

521
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,160
Speaker 1: Florida and you can either fold or you can really

522
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: emerge from that with a new mentality. And I think

523
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 1: the latter happened. And what happened here is the first

524
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 1: thing was Archs just played good enough to win. Number

525
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 1: two is that defense clamp down? Oh you had one

526
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: point six yards per rush? They threw three and T's

527
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: are I INT's They turned it over on downs twice.

528
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: Texas had five sacks. They just got after them all afternoon.

529
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: That shouldn't be a shock if you've watched Texas. But

530
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: people haven't really talked about Texas. The casual public has

531
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: just talked about Texas like it's tennis. It's one person.

532
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 1: They just say Arch. It's like Oklahoma versus Arch.

533
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 2: No.

534
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: I think Sark actually said this in the postgame.

535
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: It's not Arch. Arch is one player on that team.

536
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 2: This is Texas.

537
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,719
Speaker 1: It's not like he's playing at Wyoming where elsewhere on

538
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: that roster. There are no athletes like that. Texas has

539
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: other athletes like that. The answers for Texas have been

540
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: in the building. Their answers are in their building. The

541
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: players are in the building. It's just you gotta squeeze

542
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 1: the sponge a little harder than you thought you were

543
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: gonna have to squeeze it to get the juice out.

544
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 2: But there's enough in there.

545
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: They're good enough coaches on that staff, they're good enough

546
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: players on that team. You just gotta suck it up.

547
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 1: Do you gotta find answers. That's what you're paid to do.

548
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: Players and coaches, the biggest inflection week of the week,

549
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: though this upcoming week will be Oklahoma. Because it sounds

550
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: like I'm dumping on Oklahoma, I'm not. I just took

551
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 1: a fair amount of criticism last week for pointing out

552
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: what I thought were just obvious truths, and it painted

553
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 1: as whatever. So now that the truth is out there

554
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: a little bit now that the book is out there

555
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: a little bit more publicly on Oklahoma, Okay, Now, same

556
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: questions for Oklahoma. What are you gonna do? You notice

557
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: if you're looking at the schedule here, there is no

558
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: bye this week. They go into Columbia South Carolina this

559
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: week during October no less. And I think it's the

560
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 1: inflection point moment of this week for any team because

561
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: they're right now sitting there at five and one. They

562
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: play at South Carolina, then they got Ole miss at Tennessee,

563
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 1: at Bama, Missouri, LSU. They closed the season with five

564
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: more ranked teams, and the one that's not ranked is

565
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: this week on the road. And if you don't think

566
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: South Carolina is every bit in wounded animal and back

567
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: against the wal Mote As Texas was you're crazy and

568
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: you got to go into their building. Now you got

569
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: an early kickoff. You got lucky there. But it's October,

570
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: so anything can happen there. The run game is not

571
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: showing up, and I don't think it's gonna magically appear.

572
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: So you kind of got what you got there. The

573
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: offensive line, their ceiling is above average. It's not gonna

574
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 1: be a great offensive line. You got what you got there.

575
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: This is Oklahoma's pride and for in performance spot. So

576
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: yesterday was not a surprise to me. Texas is now

577
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: one of ten teams with zero or one losses in

578
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: SEC play. The SEC is a bloodbath because pretty soon

579
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: the stat's going to be one or two losses. Mathematically

580
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: that has to happen. I'm still standing still on Texas,

581
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: so a lot of people were all the way over

582
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: there now they saw Texas when they're going to be

583
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: all the way over here, and I've just been standing

584
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 1: still for two weeks, and I'm like, guys, it doesn't

585
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: have to be this way. It does not have to

586
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: be this violentist swing week to week. So now I

587
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: think we may be on the precipice of another week

588
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: of me having to pull people back to earth on

589
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: Texas and they're going to go to Kentucky Saturday.

590
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 2: And they'll probably win.

591
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: But I gotta tell you, this offense does not have

592
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: the explosivity enough to just assume Texas is going to

593
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: go roll. They do not have that. One game against

594
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: Oklahoma does not all of a sudden absolve my memory

595
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: of knowing what it knows. So you cannot assume back

596
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: to back road stretches here at Kentucky at Mississippi State.

597
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: Everyone will chalk it up as a win.

598
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: And do not do that. Please.

599
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: I had I had the stones to have faith in

600
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: you this week, and you made me look good. Now

601
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: make yourself look good. But remember you see, Texas is

602
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: a little different. Texas is a team that hadn't hit

603
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 1: its stride yet, and who knows, maybe their stride is

604
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: beneath that of a national championship caliber. But I just

605
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 1: want to remind people before you start talking definitively about Texas,

606
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: and I'm talking to myself as well, what did you

607
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 1: think about Ohio State at the end of the Michigan

608
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 1: game last year? The Michigan game was the last game

609
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: of the regular season. What did you think? What you

610
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: didn't think was national champion That's not what you thought.

611
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: Now you fast forward a month and a half and

612
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: you're talking about Ohio State like they're one of the

613
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: best teams ever. Why, well, they peaked in December, that's why.

614
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: So when is Texas gonna peak? What is their peak?

615
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: The reason I'm careful writing off Texas is because I

616
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: know the kind of dudes walking around that building.

617
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 2: Now.

618
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 1: It may never peak to the degree of national champion

619
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: this year, but I'm not writing them off. I'm not

620
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: writing that staff off, I'm not writing arch Manning off,

621
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm not writing them off. Let's move on, Nonder. We

622
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: got a lot of folks watching live. Fifteen thousand people

623
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: in here watching live. Appreciate it. Make sure you subscribe.

624
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 1: Indiana thirty, Oregon twenty. This was the surprising result of

625
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: the day for me. Well, Troy came back against Texas State,

626
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: but on the glarger scale, this was the surprise of

627
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: the day for me. This is a result I had

628
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: to see the belief. I give this game three chili

629
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: on the one to five Chili rating scale. Indiana went

630
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: in and not only did they win in Austin Stadium,

631
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: which I'm told you're not supposed to be able to do.

632
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: I think I told myself that not only did they

633
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: do that. They went in there and kind of gave

634
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: themselves breathing room. Imagine telling yourself Friday, Indiana's gonna go

635
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: up there and they're gonna win, and honestly they're gonna

636
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: throw a pick six and it's still really not gonna matter.

637
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 1: They're still gonna kind of just sort of win by

638
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: double digits, like what. So I was flying back to

639
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: Nashville as this game was wrapping up, and I had

640
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: intermittent Wi Fi, so I was kind of seeing bits

641
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: and parts of it and pieces of it, but I

642
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: didn't really get to watch the full game, or I

643
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: didn't even get the story on the full game until

644
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 1: I landed, and when I landed, it was wrapping up.

645
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 2: So here's what happens.

646
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: When you think you know about two teams, and I

647
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: thought I knew about these two teams, and then you

648
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: see a result that surprises you. Your instinct is to say, oh, man,

649
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: thirty to twenty, All right, well what happened? You know,

650
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: what's the context. In other words, it's disrespectful to Indiana,

651
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: I admit that. But you're thinking, for Oregon to have

652
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: lost period to Indiana, there has to be something where

653
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: they minus four turnovers, Did Dante morg get hurt? Did

654
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: special teams provide like twenty one points for Indiana? And

655
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: then you find out what happened. They just stuffed Oregon

656
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 1: in a locker in their own building. That's what happened.

657
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: There was a pick six in this game. There was

658
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: a forty four yard sort of busted coverage touchdown that

659
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: Oregon had in this game. So that's fourteen of Oregon's points.

660
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: Outside of those two, Oregon had six points on eleven drives.

661
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: Outside of those two moments, one of them defensive and

662
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: one of them credit where credits do is just a

663
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: busted play? Outside of those, Oregon had nothing. The red

664
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: zone paper popper stat of this game Indiana five for

665
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: five for twenty seven points down there, Oregon two of

666
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: three for six points. At halftime, Indiana led this game

667
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: thirteen to ten. So even if we got to that point,

668
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: or we're on Fridays, We're on Friday's look Ahead, and

669
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: I tell you what if I let you know how

670
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: the first half of this game's going to go, oh really, okay,

671
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: deal all right, Indiana is going to be up thirteen

672
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: to ten. How do you think that second half is

673
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: going to play out. I'm still betting Oregon. Even then,

674
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: I would have doubted Sig. I would have doubted Indiana.

675
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: Even if you told me how the first half went,

676
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 1: I would have said, Organ's about to pour it on Aunson.

677
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: Oregon coming out of the half without the lead, superior roster.

678
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: This is where they lean on them. This is where

679
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: Austin sort of sinks its teeth in. Oregon had sixty

680
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: four total yards in the second half. Just brutal, just

681
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: absolutely brutal. Indiana had two scoring drives in the second half,

682
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: longer than Oregon's total yardage.

683
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 2: Lockered. They just got stuffed in there. Just hmmm, that's

684
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 2: Oregon in the locker, could not believe it. What is Indiana?

685
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 1: By the way, They're a team that's going to be

686
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: favored the rest of the way. We all know that

687
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: point spread crowd loves that anti point spread crowds like, well,

688
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: games aren't played on paper. Okay, well, this game was

689
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: played on a field. I watched Indiana. They look incredibly impressive.

690
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 1: I did have one theory validated, and that one theory

691
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 1: is I have felt all year like this team is

692
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: a I won't say way better, they are a better

693
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: version of Indiana than last year was. Last year's Indiana

694
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: never scared me once they got to the playoff. This

695
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,240
Speaker 1: Indiana team would scare me if they got in the playoff.

696
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: But even then, man, I just thought Oregon would take

697
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: care of business here. The model did, and the model

698
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: had Indiana as its favorite play of the week, and

699
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: I overrode the model. We see how that turned out.

700
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: They're strengthening. They are in weather terms, one of those

701
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:49,439
Speaker 1: sort of category two category three hurricanes that gets into

702
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 1: the Gulf of Mexico. It doesn't get sheered apart in

703
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: the Caribbean, you know, doesn't get torn apart by the

704
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: topography of the islands, and it just gets into the Gulf.

705
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 2: Golf is like bath water.

706
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: It's like ninety degrees on the surface, and there's no

707
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: other storms that have come through prior to that and

708
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: creating upwelling, which is when previous storms pull up the

709
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: cooler water. Therefore it serves to weaken the subsequent storms

710
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:16,919
Speaker 1: that come through.

711
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 2: None of that's happened.

712
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 1: We went way more in depth there than I needed

713
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: to on hurricanes. But Indiana is they're the Cat three

714
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 1: hurricane that's loosing the Gulf and there's nothing standing in

715
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 1: its way. What keeps it from becoming a Cat five?

716
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 1: What keeps Indiana from continuing to roll. They haven't accomplished anything,

717
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,879
Speaker 1: they haven't won anything. There's no thread of complacency here.

718
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,800
Speaker 1: Signetty hates the world, there's no thread of him losing focus.

719
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza may end up playing himself into being the

720
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 1: top overall picking the draft, like he's got every reason

721
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: to be dialed in. That roster is full of a

722
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: lot of guys who, in many cases were told they

723
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 1: couldn't play for the very teams they're fighting for the

724
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: right to play against the playoff. They're locked in, they're

725
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,400
Speaker 1: zoned in, and they're not a mirage.

726
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: They're real.

727
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: Indiana also has this fairal group. It's about ten or

728
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,879
Speaker 1: fifteen people deep that roam the internet looking for anyone

729
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,919
Speaker 1: who picked against them, which is basically the entire world

730
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: outside of I think McAfee. And then they started trying

731
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: to flex last night like everyone saw this coming, like

732
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: they saw this coming.

733
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 2: Calm down, No you didn't. I mean, I don't doubt.

734
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 1: You predicted your team to win the game. But in

735
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 1: a general sense, the audacity of someone in this case me,

736
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 1: to need to see Indiana go into literal Eugene Oregon

737
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: and win a game before believing they were a legit

738
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: title contender is not the craziest idea in the world,

739
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 1: especially when you had a shot at Ohio State last

740
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 1: year and you got buried because it's Ohio State, and

741
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:47,800
Speaker 1: then Notre Dame did the same thing to you in

742
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: the playoff. It wasn't the craziest thing to require proof

743
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 1: of concept from Indiana. So calm down. Now we have it.

744
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 1: Now we have it, So maybe I don't need the

745
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: doubt Kurt Signetti. It's not that I doubted him. I

746
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: just believed in Oregon. Maybe I believed in Orgon a

747
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: little too much. Oregon has to reevaluate here now. They

748
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,479
Speaker 1: did taste their blood early enough in the season, unlike

749
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 1: last year, where maybe you taste the blood early and

750
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: you taste the champagne later. Maybe that's the way it

751
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: works for them this year because they went wire to

752
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 1: wire in the regular season. Last year they won the

753
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: Big Ten. Then they get in the playoff, they're the

754
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: one seed. Bam done, Ohio State done, and by the

755
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 1: time you taste your blood there, it's too late. So

756
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,880
Speaker 1: maybe Maybe this course corrects them a little bit. Maybe

757
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,760
Speaker 1: this has the kind of effect on them that FSU

758
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: loss had on Alabama. Stuff happens every year. Maybe that

759
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 1: does happen. But they got out coached here. I'm not

760
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: telling you that, like I took the projector in the

761
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:43,879
Speaker 1: kitchen and put it up on the fridge and broke

762
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: it down frame for frame. Dan Landing and his staff, No,

763
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:47,760
Speaker 1: they got kind.

764
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 2: Of worked here.

765
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: I think that's happened a couple of times. It's happened

766
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: two or three times since he's been up there. And

767
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: they take it ultra personal.

768
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 2: They should.

769
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 1: You should when someone's better than you at your job

770
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,399
Speaker 1: and you're building, you should take it personal. I think

771
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 1: they will. It's not to say if they don't face

772
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: them again in Indianapolis, they don't turn the table on them.

773
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,919
Speaker 1: You just got to earn the right to do it. Now,

774
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 1: you just got to earn the right to do it.

775
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: But Kurt Signetti, the thing about him is he is

776
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: the worst enemy of many coaches out there. Not because

777
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: of his demeanor, not because of his sound bites. It's

778
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: not that at all. It's that there are a lot

779
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: of coaches out there at programs much more well resourced

780
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: than Indiana historically that are trying to sell their donor

781
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,760
Speaker 1: base and their fan base and their administration on having

782
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,280
Speaker 1: patients and this is a multi year process. And here's

783
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: what's tough. That used to fly and reality is that

784
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: is the truth. But Kurt Signetti's in Indiana doing what

785
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: he's doing, and all those fans and boosters and administrators

786
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 1: now look at their coach and say, wait a minute.

787
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: If it's so hard, if it takes as long as

788
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: you're trying to tell us it takes, why is that

789
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: guy doing what he's doing. Can you imagine Mike Norvel's

790
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: reality right now in Tallahassee, Florida recently reworked contract and

791
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: he's delivering the results he's delivering, and Sig is in

792
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:18,839
Speaker 1: Bloomington in football delivering the results he's delivering. Can you

793
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: imagine trying to explain to your administration, I just need

794
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: some more time, guys, It's not that easy.

795
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 2: Boy.

796
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: There's a guy in Indiana who makes it look easy,

797
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: and that is not a good thing for other coaches

798
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 1: out there. Let's march on jam packed Show my Goodness.

799
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 1: Alabama twenty seven, Missouri twenty four. You know we were

800
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: at this game yesterday. We were on the sideline there.

801
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: I'd give this one three and a half tili. This

802
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: is a good game. I'd be interested to see the

803
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: TV number it got. It was fueled by quick Trip,

804
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 1: That's how we got there. We appreciate quick Trip for that.

805
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: This is a really interesting dynamic because I did not

806
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: see this game the way apparently a lot of Bama

807
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: fans saw it. I didn't see this game maybe the

808
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: way most of the world saw it. Saw it up close, though,

809
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 1: So that's good. Bama's the fifth SEC team ever to

810
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: defeat three ranked conference opponents in a three week span.

811
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: That according to statistician Cole Kublick. So we appreciate him.

812
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 1: He is now parts of stats and info for us.

813
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 1: We appreciate that.

814
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 2: You know what this was.

815
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: This is a classic Kaitlin Deboor Washington game. You remember

816
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 1: that twenty twenty three season when he was up at

817
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 1: Washington and they kept on having one possession games, and

818
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 1: some people me kept on thinking it would come to

819
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: an end, and some people again me kept picking Washington

820
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: to lose, and they just kept winning, and eventually you're

821
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: thinking his luck's got to run out. But then he

822
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: keeps winning. They were eight and oh in one possession games,

823
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,319
Speaker 1: and eventually you just got to look at yourself and say,

824
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 1: maybe it's more than luck. That was that kind of

825
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: game for Alabama yesterday. And I got to tell you,

826
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: I don't get this sentiment from some Alabama fans who

827
00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: I have heard complaining about this thing. They're like, we're

828
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 1: we're happy we won, but you have got to properly

829
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: calibrate your viewpoint and your worldview on this stuff and

830
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: your team. I looked at Alabama yesterday. I thought this

831
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: was a nightmare spot for them. We said it last week.

832
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: I looked at Alabama and I'm like, hold on, You're

833
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: off back to back really emotionally charged games at Georgia

834
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: home versus Vanderbilt. You not got to go on the

835
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: road someone else's building. They're off a bye. It's a

836
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 1: good team too. It's not like a poverty team that

837
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 1: you're overlooking. Ryan Williams best receiver talent wise, is far

838
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 1: below one hundred percent. Jim Miller gets concussed during the game,

839
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: he's out, and you got all that working against you,

840
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: and you still end up winning the game and kind

841
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: of controlled it most of the way. Took the guy

842
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball that you needed

843
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 1: to take out out of the game, and you win it,

844
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 1: and because it's closer than you thought it should be,

845
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,439
Speaker 1: you're unhappy with it. Guys, the line on the game

846
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: was three. For that matter, the totals fifty one. Do

847
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 1: the math twenty seven to twenty four.

848
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:07,399
Speaker 2: Final there.

849
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure it was just a guest from FanDuel, though.

850
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: I'll give you a bad luck stat on this game. Look,

851
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: all I'm trying to say is be a little more

852
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 1: appreciative of wins. Not all of you, some of you.

853
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,760
Speaker 1: My goodness. I looked at my inbox, I thought Bama

854
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: had lost, and then I was like, did we not

855
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: just fly back from that game? Did I not just

856
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:27,280
Speaker 1: watch them win? So I'll give you a bad luck stat.

857
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: Bad luck stats are for the new viewers and listeners

858
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: to the show. The thing that if I told you

859
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,319
Speaker 1: on Friday this stat, you would have guessed wrong. If

860
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: I told you Bama was going to run it for

861
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: under three yards per carry but Missouri was going to

862
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: be at five point eight yards per carrey, you probably

863
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: think they won the game. I would have I would

864
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,240
Speaker 1: have thought that Missouri won the game and they didn't.

865
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 1: Bama found a way. This was an all hands on

866
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,959
Speaker 1: deck type of situation for them. I'm telling you they were.

867
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,240
Speaker 1: There was some adversity in this one that Alabama experienced.

868
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: There were nine different guys that caught a pass for Alabama.

869
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: Now one of those was deflected to the center. So

870
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,799
Speaker 1: let's say eight pass catchers got involved, and none of

871
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: those were Ryan Williams. He didn't catch a ball yesterday.

872
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,479
Speaker 1: He played, but he was far less than one hundred

873
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: percent and didn't catch a ball outside of the opening

874
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,479
Speaker 1: drive and that short field that got set up because

875
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: Missouri forced to turn over early in the second half.

876
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: Bama's defense did what they.

877
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 2: Needed to do.

878
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: It's so funny, though, again, you got to understand who

879
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: we're talking about here.

880
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 2: We're talking about Bama.

881
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: These people have watched some of the best defenses and

882
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: best defensive talent in the history of this game roll

883
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: through their program, so they've got an idea of what

884
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 1: elite defense looks like. And this is not an elite defense.

885
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 1: It's just a defense that keeps the other team from

886
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,800
Speaker 1: scoring too many points. Which you may be driving around

887
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: listening to the show, you may be watching it and

888
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: you may be thinking to yourself, is the whole point

889
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: of the game, right, that's the whole point of defense

890
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: keep the other team from scoring. Yeah, but it's more

891
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: complicated than that. No, No, but it's really not. It's

892
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 1: really not more complicated than that. Missouri was one of

893
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 1: ten on third down. There's your paper popper. There's your

894
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 1: paper popper. Matt Hardy was under fifty yards I think

895
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: total on the day.

896
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:12,919
Speaker 2: That's it.

897
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 1: That was the guy you couldn't let take over the game,

898
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: and they didn't let him take over the game.

899
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:17,839
Speaker 2: I will tell you this.

900
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 1: I was watching on the field and that opening touchdown

901
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 1: drive of Missouri was a knife through soft butter, and

902
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: you think to yourself, man, they're in for it. Kind

903
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: of reminded me the way Vandy opened against them. Bama

904
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 1: defensively notoriously poor against the opening script. Then they get

905
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: in the flow of things, and it's fine if anyone

906
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: out there wants to tell me what Demani Jackson was

907
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: doing on that opening touchdown drive and that pass feel free.

908
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: We got some very very bright defensive minds that watched

909
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: this show, and we got a lot of coaches that

910
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,920
Speaker 1: watched the show. Some of them maybe even on that staff.

911
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 1: You want to let me know what number one in

912
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 1: white was doing, I would be happy to be educated.

913
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 1: I've watched a fair amount football. I have no clue

914
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: what he was doing. No, I mean, I'm just saying,

915
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 1: if I'm a defensive coordinator, I'm gonna get wrong. Like

916
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: if I'm Kane Warmack, I'm getting wrong because I'm giving

917
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 1: up an opening drive touchdown. And meanwhile, I'm thinking to myself,

918
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:17,879
Speaker 1: if I'm kde Walmack, I could not X or oh,

919
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: this dude into a better position.

920
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 2: He's got to make a play. One ended up.

921
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: On the sideline somewhere. He was over there where the

922
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,839
Speaker 1: photogs are. The photographers are anyway, they are.

923
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 2: Kids after all.

924
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 1: Ryan Williams not one hundred percent. Jam Miller out. Yeah,

925
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 1: this could have gone bad for Alabama and it didn't.

926
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: So what is jam Miller's status. I don't think that

927
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:42,799
Speaker 1: we've gotten a public update on that. But it's gonna

928
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: be tough. I mean, it's another game week. They got

929
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: Tennessee coming up. Its third Saturday in October. Week Down there,

930
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: it's cigar week for them. Ryan Williams, does he get

931
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 1: back to one hundred percent this year? Don't know that

932
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: hit Meadows took was brutal, that was right in front

933
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 1: of us. Don't know, and he hasn't been like a

934
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 1: complete focal point of their offense. But you never want

935
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: to be down guys when you're facing Tennessee or which

936
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 1: is when you're in conference play period. I thought Missouri

937
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 1: played like they were down three scores in this game.

938
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: Did this strike you as weird when you know their

939
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 1: personnel and you know their identity? They had what was

940
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,479
Speaker 1: it Jesse in the second half of this game, where

941
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 1: it was largely a one possession game, the game's well

942
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 1: within reach.

943
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,240
Speaker 2: They ran the ball nine times.

944
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 1: Bama ran it twenty five times by comparison in the

945
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: second half. Drinkwitz and his staff know way more about

946
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,240
Speaker 1: play calling than I do. I'm not questioning to play calling,

947
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:38,200
Speaker 1: I'm questioning.

948
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 2: Strategy there though.

949
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: I really wonder if they had it to do over again,

950
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:45,320
Speaker 1: how differently they would manage that Their tailbacks the running

951
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 1: back position had seventeen total runs all game. That's just

952
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 1: not the way I draw it up. Knowing what you

953
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 1: know about your guys and their guys, that's not the

954
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: way I would have drawn it up. But I will

955
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 1: tell you this, I would draw up the trip exactly

956
00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,320
Speaker 1: how it went. Hitting aside last week and there was

957
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,800
Speaker 1: a lot of it. I mean, we pretty much participated

958
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: and sparked a bullying campaign against Eli Drinkuitzs, and we

959
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 1: bullied them online because they shut the weight room down

960
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 1: for Tebau on Friday. And all I'm saying is, how

961
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: come Tim Tebow gets to do something in life I

962
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,240
Speaker 1: can't do that was my question. And to his credit,

963
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: I looked at my phone like four forty five the

964
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 1: next morning and he had texted me drink not Tebow,

965
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 1: and he had made it right. Truthfully, I did not

966
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 1: know Pres was going to run this footage, so do

967
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 1: not call me names. I'm not running this footage myself.

968
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 2: This is Pres. Good job. Pres. We had a great

969
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 2: workout there at Missouri, empty weight.

970
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 1: Room, best kind of weight room, and they showed us

971
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 1: a great time. I got to say, just like Florida State,

972
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: the week before, we take we take we take fire

973
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,839
Speaker 1: all week from the one percent of fan base that's bad,

974
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: and we did last week from Missouri. Then you go

975
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,359
Speaker 1: to Missouri and everyone's awesome. Just like the week before

976
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 1: at Florida State, everyone's awesome. So hats off to Missouri folks.

977
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,239
Speaker 1: I cannot thank you enough. Josh Maxon, an old friend

978
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:05,839
Speaker 1: of the program up there running things for him and

979
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 1: Eli Drinkins and his staff. We appreciate it. We appreciate it.

980
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. They're at Auburn this week. Like BAM's

981
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 1: at home against Tennessee Man, Missouri is at Auburn this week.

982
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 2: It just it is such a crazy league this year.

983
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 1: There are so many teams capable of winning the league

984
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: but also losing four games if a few bounces go

985
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 1: a certain way, and Missouri is just another one.

986
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 2: Of those teams.

987
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 1: Man, who if you are looking to get to any

988
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:36,879
Speaker 1: of these games and it is the year to do it,

00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 1: we got a lot of people watching the show that

1011
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,479
Speaker 1: don't normally do it. This show is free year round.

1012
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 1: It's just college football year round. Do me one favor

Speaker 1: for anything.

1020
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 2: It just helps us. Let's move on.

1021
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 1: We got a lot of show left to get to,

1022
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,879
Speaker 1: a lot of show. A and M handled Florida last night.

1023
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 1: Thirty four to seventeen was the final. Now, this is

1024
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,439
Speaker 1: a two and a half chali game, not the most

1025
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,879
Speaker 1: amazing fireworks show known to man. But that's okay because

1026
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 1: that's exactly how they wanted it in College Station. I

1027
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 1: think this game did a lot in a not so

1028
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: good way for Billy Napier. I will get to that

1029
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: in a second, but we do talk winners first around here.

1030
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. Bradley kind of threw them off with

1031
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,319
Speaker 1: the b roll there. America is gonna overlook this game,

1032
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 1: I really think because America thinks Florida sucks because the

1033
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: record's terrible. And I just I couldn't have been more

1034
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: impressed with Texas A and M. If no one else

1035
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 1: says it, noted Aggie Homer, I am bought and paid

1036
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:38,879
Speaker 1: for by TexAgs money.

1037
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 2: Everyone knows that. Bradley.

1038
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you time. I'm gonna give you time

1039
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,400
Speaker 1: if you're listening, if you're watching live. There's a little

1040
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 1: power hit there. So in the interest of Bradley being

1041
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,759
Speaker 1: able to cut the video later, I'm just gonna say

1042
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,800
Speaker 1: what I was saying again.

1043
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 2: If you're watching live, just pretend like this is take two.

1044
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: I think America is going to totally overlook this result

1045
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 1: because A and M's playing a Florida team that no

1046
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 1: one thinks is any good and the record's bad and

1047
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,239
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. I'm just telling you, if no one

1048
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: else gives credit, I am. It's documented, I am bought

1049
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: and paid for by tech SAgs money. So I am

1050
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,920
Speaker 1: a shill. So I'll be the one who says I

1051
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 1: couldn't have been more impressed. You know why, because they

1052
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,719
Speaker 1: out rushed him one eighty three to seventy four. And

1053
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 1: that's something Florida had to do in this game and

1054
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 1: they couldn't do it. Also, ANM owned third down. I

1055
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: would call this the paper popper of the game. Nine

1056
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 1: or seventeen on third down. Other dude one and eleven,

1057
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:36,239
Speaker 1: So you limited Florida on third down. They couldn't run

1058
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: the ball. Marcel Reid still missed some open throws. So

1059
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 1: as good as they looked offensively, like, there's still meat

1060
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 1: on the bone offensively for A and M. Now maybe

1061
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: that is just Marcel Reid. Maybe he's always going to

1062
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 1: have those one or two or three moments per game.

1063
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 1: But you know what caught my eye more than anything.

1064
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 1: You know what's more encouraging to me than anything. They

1065
00:51:55,760 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 1: weren't stupid three penalties all night boy.

1066
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 2: I'll take that.

1067
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 1: Given what A and M has been so far this year,

1068
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 1: I will take that. Florida had five sacks against Texas

1069
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: the week before Goose Egg against A and M. If

1070
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: you're looking at how this team is taking shape, they've

1071
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: already won multiple kinds of games. We've talked about that before.

1072
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,759
Speaker 1: They won a shootout. They've won slugfests. This one was

1073
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:24,880
Speaker 1: somewhere in between. They are a multifaceted team. They are

1074
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: a toolbox team, as we call them. They are a

1075
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:30,280
Speaker 1: dangerous team, and they haven't peaked. They're continuing to improve.

1076
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 2: More on them.

1077
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,879
Speaker 1: In a second, this felt like a last gasp sort

1078
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: of game for Florida. I don't know how it felt

1079
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:39,799
Speaker 1: to you, but they had one hundred and fifty seven

1080
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: yards in the first quarter of this game. They had

1081
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty two the rest of the way,

1082
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,839
Speaker 1: so they just ran out of gas. And my great

1083
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 1: unknown coming out of the Texas game was is that

1084
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: the new Florida. So did they hit another gear or

1085
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:55,040
Speaker 1: was that just a one off?

1086
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 2: They didn't play.

1087
00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 1: Terribly last night, but it looks like it was a

1088
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 1: one off. And I don't know that Billy's going to

1089
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,920
Speaker 1: be around much longer. Again, I love Billy and Apiers,

1090
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,279
Speaker 1: so I don't like talking about that, but I did

1091
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:10,399
Speaker 1: wonder what the effort would be. They fumbled the ball

1092
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,400
Speaker 1: four times last night. They recovered two of them. It

1093
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: could have been worse second half drives. This is not

1094
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 1: the Sarah McLaughlin special. We're saving that for later in

1095
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,279
Speaker 1: the show. But their second half drives went minus three,

1096
00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 1: minus three, fourteen eleven, minus one, forty seven, minus three,

1097
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 1: thirty one minus two thirty two. Yeah, it's not good enough.

1098
00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:36,120
Speaker 1: And now Florida's two and four and there are more

1099
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,680
Speaker 1: losses coming. A and M has it all in front

1100
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 1: of them like they're undefeed. They're undefeated. Does Marcel read

1101
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:46,880
Speaker 1: keep progressing? Okay, that's the first question. Number two. Is

1102
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: their defense consistent enough? Now there could be a week

1103
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: where defense gives up thirty one, but that's okay because

1104
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,439
Speaker 1: offense hangs thirty eight. They are that kind of complimentary team.

1105
00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:00,360
Speaker 1: They are that this is not LSU to this point,

1106
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,800
Speaker 1: like LSU is known, we need we need standout defensive

1107
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,319
Speaker 1: performances because we're probably not going to score enough. Well,

1108
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:07,759
Speaker 1: that has not been A and M.

1109
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 2: Now.

1110
00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: Teams evolve, some teams progress, some teams regress. That's the

1111
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 1: big test for Mike Elco year two. Every time you

1112
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: got a returning coach, a returning staff year one to

1113
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:24,240
Speaker 1: year two, that's the great hope that the mortar between

1114
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,839
Speaker 1: the bricks hardens to where, hey, a lot of these

1115
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: are the same guys we had last year, but boy,

1116
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:34,359
Speaker 1: we looked better and we infused this team or this

1117
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 1: wall of bricks with some good bricks. Yes, yes, you

1118
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 1: did all that. That's what a major program does. Now,

1119
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 1: as we all know, the internet has taught us Texas

1120
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 1: A and M cannot win a national title. We all

1121
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:50,920
Speaker 1: know that why they never have And what's the other evidence.

1122
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,399
Speaker 1: We don't have any other evidence. That's all you need.

1123
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 1: That's the only evidence you need. Like, Okay, how much

1124
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,080
Speaker 1: gas was in the tank for Florida was what I

1125
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 1: I wondered, Not enough. I think Napier is likely out.

1126
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 1: That's not my opinion. That's talking to people around Florida today,

1127
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,320
Speaker 1: I think billiy Napier is gonna be out it maybe

1128
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: after this upcoming game and they've got to buy.

1129
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 2: But I do believe that.

1130
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:15,840
Speaker 1: He's gonna be out and I do believe the Florida

1131
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:16,840
Speaker 1: job is gonna come open.

1132
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,239
Speaker 2: I don't like it.

1133
00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:22,920
Speaker 1: I think it makes sense though, like you're if you

1134
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: don't have to sell me on the logic behind it.

1135
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,799
Speaker 2: I get it. He's had time. The result's not good

1136
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 2: enough for you. I get it.

1137
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 1: This one would be infinitely less egregious than James Franklin

1138
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: to me. So if that's the way it goes, that's

1139
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 1: the way it goes. I love billiy Napier, so I'm

1140
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,439
Speaker 1: not gonna I'm not gonna trash him. Do I play

1141
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: favorites on the show? Absolutely, I do, and that's one

1142
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,560
Speaker 1: of my guys there. But it is a bottom line business,

1143
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: and the bottom line there is it has not been

1144
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:46,720
Speaker 1: good enough.

1145
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 2: So I understand it.

1146
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 1: I do get it, and I think you'll see action

1147
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: on that front in the not too distant future.

1148
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:57,239
Speaker 2: Let's continue to move lips chopped. Do we have a

1149
00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 2: dehumidifiring here or something that's ridiculous?

1150
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,720
Speaker 1: Gotta be careful with the way I parsh the lips

1151
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:05,280
Speaker 1: because I get made fun of on the home front

1152
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:09,520
Speaker 1: by how my mouth looks when I put lipbam on ridiculous.

1153
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,320
Speaker 1: I just want support, That's all I want. Oh, buddy,

1154
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:18,279
Speaker 1: Oh this next game? Okay. Georgia beat Auburn last night,

1155
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 1: Sorry for Bradley. Georgia beat Auburn last night, twenty to ten.

1156
00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 1: And this is a one chali game. And I apologize.

1157
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,840
Speaker 1: And there's so many different angles to take on this game.

1158
00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 1: Somewhere out there, someone made this game the first college

1159
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 1: football game they've ever watched last night, And to you,

1160
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:38,319
Speaker 1: I apologize. We are better than this. I'm better than this.

1161
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 1: Aren't we better than this? College football is better than this.

1162
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: It's not always this way. I promise you. It's not

1163
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,960
Speaker 1: always this way. Officiating, before you even mention it to me,

1164
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 1: is its own story in this game. Sometimes officiating is

1165
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 1: so horrendously bad in a game that we give its

1166
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 1: own segment to officiating. So officiating, after I get done

1167
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 1: talking about the game, we're going to just talk about

1168
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,640
Speaker 1: officiating on its own. That's how bad it is, that's

1169
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 1: how far beyond the pale officiating was in this game.

1170
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: But I promise you actually it sucks a lot. Rarely

1171
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 1: is it this bad. So if you're new to college football,

1172
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 1: please give us another chance. Please don't make this be

1173
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,200
Speaker 1: what you go back to your soccer friends or your

1174
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: basketball friends and tell them is college football. This is

1175
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 1: not college football. This is a clown show. And then

1176
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:27,880
Speaker 1: there was college football game mixed in. And it's not

1177
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 1: Auburn's fault or Georgia's fault. They just happen to be

1178
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 1: the two teams involved. Speaking of two boy, it was

1179
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 1: a tale of two halves. I don't know if that's

1180
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 1: a book that's been written, but it was a tale

1181
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,440
Speaker 1: of two halves. And I gotta tell you, man, I

1182
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: thought Georgia was cooked. Hugh Freeze put on a clinic

1183
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 1: coming out of the bye week. Here, I want to

1184
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,160
Speaker 1: take you to a moment in time. This seems like

1185
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 1: so long ago. The moment in time is there is

1186
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: one minute, thirty nine seconds remaining in the first half.

1187
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 1: At that moment in this game, Auburn had a two

1188
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 1: twenty eight to twenty yardage advantage. They had a forty

1189
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 1: four to twelve plays run advantage. Auburn at a time

1190
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 1: of possession edge of like fourteen minutes and they are

1191
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 1: one inch away from making the game seventeen to nothing

1192
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: and probably closing the door on Georgia. Probably can't prove

1193
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:28,920
Speaker 1: that definitively. Instead, the thing ends up being ten to three.

1194
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 2: We all know.

1195
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,480
Speaker 1: Well, if you watch the game, you know the circus

1196
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:34,440
Speaker 1: that ensued down there on the goal line. Again, I'm

1197
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:37,200
Speaker 1: going to talk about that separately in a few minutes.

1198
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 1: Georgia flipped everything. As bad as you think calls went

1199
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,000
Speaker 1: against you, you cannot allow this game to turn like

1200
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 1: Auburn did. This is not the playground, man, this is

1201
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 1: high level college football. I'm talking about coaches, I'm talking

1202
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:53,080
Speaker 1: about players from the neck up. I mean, the reason

1203
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 1: so much is invested in the mental side of this

1204
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 1: game is because you should have a mental edge about yourself.

1205
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 1: He may not always have a mental edge against the competition,

1206
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 1: but at the very least you need to match them mentally.

1207
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,640
Speaker 1: Georgia was mentally superior to Auburn in this game. And

1208
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 1: that's a product of culture. And that's a big indictment

1209
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: on Hugh Freeze. Frankly, I mean, a guy that I

1210
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 1: thought put on a masterclass in the first half here.

1211
00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:22,960
Speaker 1: But to allow your entire group, your entire locker room,

1212
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 1: your entire sideline. To be that disproportionately put on tilt

1213
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,720
Speaker 1: by things not going your way in a game was

1214
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:32,680
Speaker 1: pretty inexcusable. So I'll get back to that in a second.

1215
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 1: Gunner Stockton got lit up. He got Aaron Murray last night.

1216
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 1: He had things done to him physically that frankly don't

1217
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,160
Speaker 1: happen in the sport of football anymore, cause it's against

1218
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 1: the rules to just hit quarterbacks like that. But Auburn

1219
00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:49,720
Speaker 1: got after him last night, and you know what happened.

1220
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,960
Speaker 1: Gunner Stockton was in like three or four car wrecks

1221
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 1: last night and just kept getting better. And he's not

1222
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 1: going to go to win a Heisman Trophy and he's

1223
00:59:57,960 --> 00:59:59,840
Speaker 1: not gonna be some first round draft pick. But man,

1224
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: I remember games like that when you're talking about him

1225
01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:05,160
Speaker 1: ten years down the road. I don't know where he

1226
01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:07,440
Speaker 1: is at that point. For all I know. He's got

1227
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:09,919
Speaker 1: his own show, he's doing his own thing. But man,

1228
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: he got lit up last night. Auburn had eight quarterback hits,

1229
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 1: they had two sacks, plus he ran the ball nine times,

1230
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 1: so he got hit more than and he just kept

1231
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 1: getting better. Twenty four to thirty seven he ended up

1232
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 1: being sixty five percent completion last night, one touchdown, no picks,

1233
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 1: ran it for twenty six yards.

1234
01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:32,600
Speaker 2: Just he is such an embodiment of what that team is.

1235
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: If you've watched Georgia football for a long time, you

1236
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 1: watched Kirby smart for a long time. I'm going to

1237
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,680
Speaker 1: ask you, do you notice something a little bit different

1238
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:45,160
Speaker 1: about Kirby and his demeanor this year? I do, and

1239
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:46,880
Speaker 1: I think I know what it is. I think he

1240
01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,560
Speaker 1: knows this team has a lower ceiling than his usual

1241
01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 1: teams have. I don't know what they'll go on to do.

1242
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 1: They may lose three or four games, they may win

1243
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 1: the national title. I don't think this is a national

1244
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:57,000
Speaker 1: title caliber team.

1245
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:57,959
Speaker 2: I just don't.

1246
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 1: I think it's a pretty good Georgia team. I think

1247
01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,880
Speaker 1: it's reflected in the attitude Kirby has. And the reason

1248
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,200
Speaker 1: I don't think he looks bent out of shape and

1249
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 1: outside his mind and apoplectic every week is because I

1250
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 1: think he understands his team. And here's what he understands.

1251
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 1: He understands what he has is what a lot of

1252
01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 1: guys will call a coaches team. A coach's team is

1253
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: not always the best team you've ever had talent wise,

1254
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 1: it's not always the best team you've ever had in

1255
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 1: terms of ceiling. A coach's team is a team that

1256
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,960
Speaker 1: you're happy to coach, You're happy to be around him.

1257
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:30,920
Speaker 1: It is a pleasure to take the practice field with

1258
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:35,200
Speaker 1: him every day because they fight and whatever they're all is,

1259
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 1: they give it. It could be seventy percent of your

1260
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 1: best teams, but they give their all, so they're given

1261
01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,160
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. And what happens sometimes is you've had

1262
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:49,120
Speaker 1: groups with higher ceilings, but they never hit their ceiling.

1263
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:51,920
Speaker 1: I've got a lot of confidence in thinking, whatever the

1264
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 1: version of this year's Georgia.

1265
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 2: Team's ceiling is, they'll hit.

1266
01:01:57,680 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 1: And it's a pleasure to be around guys like that,

1267
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 1: and I think that's reflected in Kirby Smart's attitude. Now,

1268
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 1: I will say the trade off there is maybe they

1269
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 1: don't go on to win a national title. I don't

1270
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:10,240
Speaker 1: even know if they'll make the playoff. I think they will,

1271
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if they will. I still think they're

1272
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 1: one of the best teams in the country. Don't get

1273
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 1: me wrong now, I'm not telling you this some woe

1274
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:19,600
Speaker 1: be gone eight and four hopeful for the Pop Tarts

1275
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 1: Bowl kind of team. No, they're still very dangerous. But

1276
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 1: if they don't go on to win a national title,

1277
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 1: I think Kirby knows in the back of his mind

1278
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:30,640
Speaker 1: he'll remember this year as an enjoyable year. But what

1279
01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 1: you got to make sure you do is in a

1280
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 1: game like Auburn, that's a rivalry game on the road,

1281
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 1: that's a place that's giving you nightmares. If you're Kirby

1282
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 1: smart throughout your coaching career.

1283
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:41,680
Speaker 2: You make sure you soak it in. And he did.

1284
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 1: He hopped up on that table last night and celebrated.

1285
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,560
Speaker 1: And I guarantee if they go beat Florida down in Jacksonville,

1286
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 1: that's a game the rest of the country will overlook.

1287
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 1: I guarantee he's very demonstrative celebrating that one as well.

1288
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 1: And I guarantee you, as the fan base and the

1289
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,760
Speaker 1: message boards are all up in arms about this and that,

1290
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 1: I guarantee you he'll strike a lot more somber tone,

1291
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,880
Speaker 1: a lot more measured tone at the podium because he knows,

1292
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,200
Speaker 1: first off, his legacy is set, and secondly, he can

1293
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,480
Speaker 1: coach as long as he wants to. But he's got

1294
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:10,680
Speaker 1: one year with this group and he just strikes me

1295
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 1: as a guy who's around an enjoyable group, a kiss

1296
01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:16,200
Speaker 1: to coach. So that's what I'm picking up. That's the

1297
01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 1: vibe I've gotten from them. As for Auburn, I assume

1298
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 1: this was Auburn's fastball. Jackson Arnold was their leading rusher

1299
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 1: in this game. Their longest pass play was eighteen yards.

1300
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 1: Now they tried a couple of more times to push

1301
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:32,320
Speaker 1: it down the field, but they still really can't do it.

1302
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:36,760
Speaker 1: Arnold had more time, relatively speaking, but he was still

1303
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:40,040
Speaker 1: pressured on fourteen of thirty eight dropbacks. If there was

1304
01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 1: going to be a moment, in other words, for the

1305
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,400
Speaker 1: Auburn offense to click, to find itself, to find something,

1306
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,640
Speaker 1: it would have been this game. George is one of

1307
01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 1: the worst pressure teams they'll see the whole year. It's

1308
01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,160
Speaker 1: ironic cause that's Georgia, but that's what they are this year.

1309
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 1: And Auburn had the bye week to get ready and

1310
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:59,560
Speaker 1: to self scout themselves and do a thorough internal review,

1311
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 1: and this is what they came out of the gate with.

1312
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,479
Speaker 1: This was their fastball. They hung ten points at home,

1313
01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:09,320
Speaker 1: and now Missouri's coming in this week, and I will

1314
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 1: say I have written on my piece of paper here.

1315
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:16,400
Speaker 1: Missouri game is very big. The word vary is in

1316
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:20,680
Speaker 1: all caps. I'm not just telling you the Missouri game

1317
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 1: is big in terms of league standings. If you're picking

1318
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 1: up what I'm putting down, there so lot going on,

1319
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:30,880
Speaker 1: a lot going on at Auburn. The officiating in this

1320
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 1: game was a travesty. Okay, The officiating in the Georgia

1321
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:39,920
Speaker 1: Auburn game was as bad as college football officiating has

1322
01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 1: been in a long time. And college football officiating has

1323
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:45,840
Speaker 1: been very inconsistent and largely a joke for quite a

1324
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:48,720
Speaker 1: while now. Not just bad calls being made. Bad calls

1325
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: are acceptable, I mean, to a certain degree. Bad calls

1326
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:53,680
Speaker 1: are going to happen as long as humans are involved.

1327
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 1: Mistakes are going to happen as long as humans are involved.

1328
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 1: The lack of transparency, the lack of accountability, the lack

1329
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:03,600
Speaker 1: of a basic understanding at certain points of what's going on,

1330
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:07,040
Speaker 1: and the lack of answers that you get afterwards is

1331
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:11,400
Speaker 1: so inexcusable. Again, this is not a government operation. Kubli's

1332
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:15,160
Speaker 1: calling me while I'm on air. That's also inexcusable. This

1333
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:20,160
Speaker 1: is not classified intel. These are not clandestine government operations.

1334
01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 2: This is not a black op.

1335
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,920
Speaker 1: This is a college football game that you're paying money

1336
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 1: to attend, that you're paying money in rights fees to watch,

1337
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:32,560
Speaker 1: that you're being paid to coach. But it's a game

1338
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,520
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's a game, and

1339
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,520
Speaker 1: it is a billion dollar brand, the SEC, and it

1340
01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 1: is the greatest sport on the face of the earth.

1341
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:43,919
Speaker 1: And it is the most ridiculous nickel and dime officiating

1342
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:47,480
Speaker 1: mechanism that billion dollar brand could possibly have. You could

1343
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:50,280
Speaker 1: not screw up how this stuff works anymore than major

1344
01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:52,920
Speaker 1: college football currently screws it up. So last night, in

1345
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:56,600
Speaker 1: this game, from the time the two minute warning hit

1346
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:01,560
Speaker 1: to the time it was real halftime was thirty six minutes.

1347
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:05,280
Speaker 1: Thirty six minutes of real time went by from the

1348
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:09,120
Speaker 1: two minute warning to halftime. There were no injuries, there

1349
01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 1: were no weather delays, the clocks didn't stop, and they

1350
01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,040
Speaker 1: had to go to commercial break to reset it. It

1351
01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:17,800
Speaker 1: was just egregiousness left and right. And here's the great

1352
01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: irony in all this, the call that was the most debated.

1353
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:25,160
Speaker 2: I think they got right. That's the irony of it all.

1354
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:27,080
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people are up in arms

1355
01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:29,440
Speaker 1: about the call down near the goal line where some

1356
01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:32,320
Speaker 1: people thought Auburn had scored, but they ruled it a fumble,

1357
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:36,360
Speaker 1: and then they reviewed it forever and they didn't overturn it. Guys,

1358
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,760
Speaker 1: I thought they made the right call. What I don't

1359
01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:41,560
Speaker 1: want you to do is one of the big pet

1360
01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:44,439
Speaker 1: peeves of mine in life, when there's a close call

1361
01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:47,800
Speaker 1: in a football game. First off, stop saying it wasn't

1362
01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 1: even close. Obviously, at the very least, it was close.

1363
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I think they got the call right.

1364
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,320
Speaker 1: But it was close. Of course it was close. There's

1365
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:59,120
Speaker 1: nothing indisputable here. And the second pet peeve, please stop

1366
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 1: using still frames of football games to present what you

1367
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:09,720
Speaker 1: think is definitive proof of a spot or a possession

1368
01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:13,439
Speaker 1: or anything like that. That's not proof of anything. I've

1369
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:15,320
Speaker 1: seen the still image you're passing around.

1370
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 2: I know the.

1371
01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:19,880
Speaker 1: Imaginary red line you've drawn on it. You're not proving anything.

1372
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,200
Speaker 1: You've got to look at it frame by frame as

1373
01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: it's moving, and the ball was probably coming out before

1374
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,120
Speaker 1: it crossed the goal line. But at the very least,

1375
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:31,440
Speaker 1: at the very least, it's not indisputable, So stop talking

1376
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,640
Speaker 1: like that. Here is what is also not in dispute.

1377
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:38,600
Speaker 1: The officials lost control of the game. The officials totally

1378
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:41,240
Speaker 1: lost control of the game. There were several other moments

1379
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,000
Speaker 1: that were beyond the pale egregious in this game that

1380
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 1: I could take the goal line spot out entirely. Let's

1381
01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 1: just pretend it never happened. Here's how terrible this game

1382
01:07:50,920 --> 01:07:51,520
Speaker 1: was officiated.

1383
01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 2: Take the rest of.

1384
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:54,919
Speaker 1: The game, and it was still the worst I've seen

1385
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,919
Speaker 1: in a long time. They lost control of the game.

1386
01:07:57,960 --> 01:07:59,560
Speaker 1: I don't know how else to present it. If you

1387
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:01,520
Speaker 1: watch that, you know what I mean. If you didn't

1388
01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:03,280
Speaker 1: watch it, if you still have it on your to

1389
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 1: do list, don't go watch the condensed game. Carve out

1390
01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 1: about five hours, because that's how long it's going to take.

1391
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:13,320
Speaker 1: You put yourself through this game. You will not believe

1392
01:08:13,360 --> 01:08:16,840
Speaker 1: it until you see it. How horribly it was officiated.

1393
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:20,679
Speaker 1: They lost control of the game. I had, I kid

1394
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 1: you not. I cannot name names. I cannot do it.

1395
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,800
Speaker 1: Members of both coaching staffs texted me during the game

1396
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:32,719
Speaker 1: from the sideline because there were so many stoppages in play,

1397
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:36,960
Speaker 1: and they were so incredulous, like both sides so incredulous.

1398
01:08:37,439 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 2: I had members of both staffs text me during the game.

1399
01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:43,240
Speaker 1: I've never had that happen before ever, and it happened

1400
01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: both sides of the field. I wasn't sending them anything,

1401
01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 1: they sent me something during the game. And the worst

1402
01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: moment I thought of the night was not the goal

1403
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:55,640
Speaker 1: line stuff. The worst moment was Kirby clearly trying to

1404
01:08:55,640 --> 01:09:00,240
Speaker 1: call a time out and then play being stopped, then

1405
01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:04,080
Speaker 1: them not charging a time out but also not calling

1406
01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:06,280
Speaker 1: de lay of game. And what happened there is what

1407
01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 1: would happen if you elevated an official too quickly.

1408
01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:11,720
Speaker 2: If I took an official who's pretty good at his

1409
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:12,639
Speaker 2: job but.

1410
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 1: Is only officiated junior high or high school ball, and

1411
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 1: I put him on the field Jerdenhair Stadium, eighty seven

1412
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:21,360
Speaker 1: thousand and change, millions watching at home, and it's a

1413
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:24,880
Speaker 1: key third down and you cannot hear yourself think that's

1414
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 1: how an inexperienced official would allow the circumstances to impact him.

1415
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:32,559
Speaker 2: You would be shell shocked.

1416
01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 1: That's why they don't hire newbies and put him on

1417
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:41,200
Speaker 1: the field in the SEC on a Saturday night. No

1418
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:43,880
Speaker 1: believe it or not, these guys have done this several

1419
01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:48,680
Speaker 1: times before, but since nothing ever changes in SEC officiating

1420
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 1: and trust me, the SEC is far from the only

1421
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,000
Speaker 1: conference that has its officiating issues. There is someone in

1422
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:58,640
Speaker 1: the Illinois Ohio State game yesterday with no business on

1423
01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:02,840
Speaker 1: this planetial ciating a high level college football game that

1424
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:04,360
Speaker 1: was on the field yesterday.

1425
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:05,759
Speaker 2: You want to know why.

1426
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:09,040
Speaker 1: That PI didn't get called for Illinois, will go check

1427
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 1: out who the field judge is there. Again, there's inexplicable

1428
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:14,760
Speaker 1: stuff happening all over the country. You have no transparency,

1429
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:18,679
Speaker 1: you get no answers. Just deal with it. Why because

1430
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:21,160
Speaker 1: no one's there to force the issue. There's no central command,

1431
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,600
Speaker 1: there's no commissioner, there's no oversight in college football. So

1432
01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:26,920
Speaker 1: it's just allowed to be the train wreck that it

1433
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 1: is every single week. But when that happened in that game,

1434
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 1: that was what had me stunned. That's the moment that's

1435
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:36,640
Speaker 1: beyond the pale. That's the moment where there are no

1436
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,160
Speaker 1: guardrails and you're off the road and you're tumbling down

1437
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,200
Speaker 1: the hill and you're thinking to yourself, how is this

1438
01:10:41,240 --> 01:10:46,080
Speaker 1: an SEC football game? How is this conference that prides

1439
01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 1: itself on being the best and on the cutting edge

1440
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:52,600
Speaker 1: of everything allowing this to be how it's represented? Like,

1441
01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:57,519
Speaker 1: can you imagine someone who's new to college football watching

1442
01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:01,480
Speaker 1: that garbage and thinking, oh, this is an see football game. Huh,

1443
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,680
Speaker 1: this is insane. Yeah, it sure is, It sure is.

1444
01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:09,280
Speaker 1: In no world does the game just stop. In no

1445
01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:14,120
Speaker 1: world is Georgia or Auburn in a situation where technically

1446
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:16,200
Speaker 1: you should be running two minute offense, but because the

1447
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,040
Speaker 1: play stops every time, defense just gets to reset after

1448
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:21,719
Speaker 1: every plane, because officials don't have control of the game.

1449
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,920
Speaker 1: Unbelievable that it could be that bad. I saw John Cohen,

1450
01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:28,640
Speaker 1: who is the athletic director at Auburn, take in a

1451
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,120
Speaker 1: lot of fire because when they were walking off the

1452
01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 1: field before halftime, he was ripping an official to shreds.

1453
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:38,559
Speaker 1: He was ripping the white hat to shreds. And people said,

1454
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:42,320
Speaker 1: that's unbecoming an athletic director. You cannot do that. You

1455
01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:46,120
Speaker 1: can't allow that to happen publicly. You know, ninety nine

1456
01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:48,040
Speaker 1: times out of one hundred, I'd agree with you. But

1457
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:50,680
Speaker 1: let me ask you something. Why can't John Cohen do that?

1458
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 1: He's not gonna get answers otherwise. Why can't Auburn fans

1459
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:59,519
Speaker 1: applaud their athletic director for ripping an official publicly on

1460
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:03,280
Speaker 1: the feet? Why is that not his play.

1461
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:04,840
Speaker 2: You'd have a much better point.

1462
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:07,560
Speaker 1: There would be more merit to your argument if I

1463
01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:09,840
Speaker 1: knew that white Hat was gonna go to a press

1464
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 1: conference podium afterwards and have to answer, you know, like

1465
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:14,600
Speaker 1: Hugh Freeze has to answer when he screws up, or

1466
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:17,919
Speaker 1: Kirby has to answer for that matter, the college football

1467
01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:20,479
Speaker 1: players have to answer. They got to go sit in

1468
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 1: front of the media when they screw up. The white

1469
01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:24,320
Speaker 1: Hat and his crew they're down the road.

1470
01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:25,240
Speaker 2: Police escort to.

1471
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,960
Speaker 1: The airport, and you'll never hear from them. And the

1472
01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:31,639
Speaker 1: best you'll get, the absolute best you'll get, if you're lucky,

1473
01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 1: is the league office will send you a memo forty

1474
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:37,000
Speaker 1: eight hours later saying, yeah, we screwed up. We're not

1475
01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 1: gonna give you a win. Oh, by the way, we're

1476
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,040
Speaker 1: not even gonna find ourselves. We don't even owe you

1477
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,479
Speaker 1: any money like you'll owe us if you question us publicly.

1478
01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:47,840
Speaker 2: No, it's just the way it'll be.

1479
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:50,040
Speaker 1: So. I saw John Cohen running off the field. I

1480
01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:51,479
Speaker 1: had a lot of my buddies text me and say,

1481
01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:54,080
Speaker 1: that's a terrible look. I texted every one of them back.

1482
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 1: I'd do the same thing. The league created this because

1483
01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:02,840
Speaker 1: the league allows this to be how it is officiated,

1484
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:05,800
Speaker 1: how its game is officiated is a joke. The lack

1485
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:10,040
Speaker 1: of transparency is a joke. If you just give more transparency,

1486
01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:14,080
Speaker 1: if just that changed, people would have less a problem

1487
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:15,920
Speaker 1: with it. They still have a problem, but it would

1488
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,439
Speaker 1: be less a problem. But I want you to watch,

1489
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,799
Speaker 1: you watch and see what happens to that crew.

1490
01:13:22,160 --> 01:13:23,439
Speaker 2: Because this is twice now.

1491
01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 1: If the league has any sense about itself, and it

1492
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:29,479
Speaker 1: did after the Oklahoma game, the league is going to

1493
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 1: have to tell Auburn and Georgia in this case, we

1494
01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:39,040
Speaker 1: fundamentally torpedoed your football game. What happens to the crew,

1495
01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:41,880
Speaker 1: what happens is there is there is there. Don't be

1496
01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:44,160
Speaker 1: telling me that you pull them off the road for

1497
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:46,240
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Don't be telling me that. Tell

1498
01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:49,559
Speaker 1: everyone that. So when I do these segments, sometimes people

1499
01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:51,960
Speaker 1: from the league office will say, you're wrong about what

1500
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 1: you said.

1501
01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:57,160
Speaker 2: We did take action. First off, your action is very

1502
01:13:57,320 --> 01:13:59,160
Speaker 2: very cosmetic. That's not action.

1503
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,840
Speaker 1: Action is take people who aren't qualified to do their

1504
01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:06,160
Speaker 1: job out of the job. That's action Number one. Number

1505
01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:10,080
Speaker 1: two is stop telling folks you screwed up and do

1506
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:13,479
Speaker 1: something about the screw up. And part three is stop

1507
01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: just texting me. Why don't you answer to the public.

1508
01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:21,120
Speaker 1: The entire reason this sport gets to exist at the

1509
01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:24,800
Speaker 1: level it does is because of fan interest. And then

1510
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:27,160
Speaker 1: you just piss all over them and tell them it's

1511
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:29,760
Speaker 1: raining when you put that kind of officiating product on

1512
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:31,960
Speaker 1: the field and expect them to just swallow it. Why

1513
01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:34,840
Speaker 1: what else can they do? Oh, they'll show up no

1514
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:38,000
Speaker 1: matter what. It's so pathetic, and like, the people in

1515
01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:42,880
Speaker 1: charge of college football right now are not remotely responsible

1516
01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,559
Speaker 1: for how successful it is. They just happen to be

1517
01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:48,479
Speaker 1: next in line, you know, they just happen to slither

1518
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:50,639
Speaker 1: their way up the administrative ladder, and so now they're

1519
01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:54,080
Speaker 1: in the decision making position. They didn't create this game.

1520
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:56,600
Speaker 1: They're not the reason this game's great. They're not the

1521
01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,439
Speaker 1: reason Georgia Auburn is the game it is, or the

1522
01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:01,479
Speaker 1: reason why millions of people are watching it. And yet

1523
01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:05,680
Speaker 1: for some reason, people that ill qualified to handle the

1524
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:08,040
Speaker 1: moment get put in the moment. And it's very aggravating.

1525
01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:11,280
Speaker 1: So yes, to answer your question, I was every bit

1526
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 1: as beside myself watching that last night as you were.

1527
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:15,680
Speaker 2: You.

1528
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:18,080
Speaker 1: And I'll calm you down though, a onesie from the

1529
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,960
Speaker 1: Peate State Store. That's what will calm you down. Look

1530

1537
01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:41,200
Speaker 1: or your sister does, or your distant relatives do, or

1538
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:43,439
Speaker 1: you just want to buy one to support the show,

1539
01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: I know I did.

1540
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:46,920
Speaker 2: Look at that little baby. That's great.

1541
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 1: Paystatemanterial dot com. We got some t's in there too.

1542
01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:51,840
Speaker 1: It's not just onesies. I had a certain friend of

1543
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 1: mine drive up to Nashville went to the Missouri game

1544
01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:56,160
Speaker 1: with us over the weekend. He said, why'd you wait

1545
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,080
Speaker 1: to put onesies in the Peate State store until my

1546
01:15:58,160 --> 01:16:00,599
Speaker 1: kids were out of onesies? And I'm like, buddy, did

1547
01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:02,600

Speaker 1: that T shirt says naptime not on third down. That

1549
01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:08,719
Speaker 1: is a great kids T shirt. That's a great adult

1550
01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,600
Speaker 1: T shirt. Honestly, especially for peep on me mo me

1551
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:16,040
Speaker 1: Maw would never but yeah, fun times at the Peyton

1552
01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:19,200
Speaker 1: State Store. Okay, let's continue. We are an hour fifteen

1553
01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,439
Speaker 1: in and we still have a jam pack show. We

1554
01:16:22,439 --> 01:16:24,360
Speaker 1: still have a jam pack show. I gotta itch on

1555
01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:27,040
Speaker 1: my nose. I apologize.

1556
01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:29,679
Speaker 2: Is Mike Norvel done at Florida State and they.

1557
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:33,719
Speaker 1: Got beat again yesterday by Pitt And this is Florida

1558
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:36,120
Speaker 1: State's eight straight conference loss.

1559
01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:37,920
Speaker 2: And it's not a good conference. Guys.

1560
01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:41,679
Speaker 1: They are five and fourteen over their last nineteen games.

1561
01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 1: I saw Corey Clark over at war Chant just put

1562
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,720
Speaker 1: a stat that kind of puts it in perspective in

1563
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,639
Speaker 1: one of his articles. Do you know that Mike Norvel

1564
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:56,600
Speaker 1: has six losing streaks of at least three games in

1565
01:16:56,680 --> 01:17:00,479
Speaker 1: his time in Tallahassee six. That's half a dozen according

1566
01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:04,240
Speaker 1: to stats and info. So Jimmy Sexton, as he is

1567
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:07,679
Speaker 1: known to do, fleeced Florida State this last coaching cycle

1568
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:10,920
Speaker 1: when he let it be known that Mike Norvell could

1569
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:14,559
Speaker 1: be headed to Alabama and got a new buyout structure

1570
01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:17,000
Speaker 1: put in place. And so now, I mean, I don't

1571
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:18,519
Speaker 1: think they can afford to buy him out.

1572
01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 2: It's fifty nine million.

1573
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:24,760
Speaker 1: Dollars if they want to fire him. Fsu Fell for it.

1574
01:17:24,800 --> 01:17:26,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how else to put it. They fell

1575
01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:28,120
Speaker 1: for it down there. I mean it was the right place,

1576
01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:31,040
Speaker 1: right time, and they fell for it. So here's the

1577
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:32,679
Speaker 1: fifty thousand foot view as I see.

1578
01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:33,280
Speaker 2: At a Florida State.

1579
01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:38,320
Speaker 1: Portal reliance does not work long term. This is what

1580
01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:40,479
Speaker 1: I always come back to with Mike Norvel, who again

1581
01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:41,080
Speaker 1: is a dude.

1582
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:41,479
Speaker 2: I love.

1583
01:17:42,160 --> 01:17:43,880
Speaker 1: They welcomed us down there in the spring.

1584
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:44,960
Speaker 2: I talk to him all day.

1585
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:46,799
Speaker 1: I'm going to get back to that in a second, actually,

1586
01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:49,320
Speaker 1: because there's some things that he told me during the

1587
01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:54,479
Speaker 1: spring that I think apply right now. Portal reliance will

1588
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,400
Speaker 1: never pay off long term. You cannot build through the portal.

1589
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,679
Speaker 1: You can supplement through the portal. But I think twenty

1590
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,880
Speaker 1: twenty three poison the well down there because twenty twenty

1591
01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:05,840
Speaker 1: three they went and got guys out of the portal

1592
01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:08,680
Speaker 1: and there were difference makers, and they probably should have

1593
01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:11,320
Speaker 1: gone to the playoff if the playoff committee hadn't changed

1594
01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:14,639
Speaker 1: the criteria on the fly. They won the acc great team.

1595
01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 1: Great team, and you probably convinced yourself that we got

1596
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:20,599
Speaker 1: a new way of doing things.

1597
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:21,160
Speaker 2: You don't.

1598
01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:23,360
Speaker 1: You've got to recruit, you've got to develop, you got

1599
01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:26,160
Speaker 1: to have a foundation of your guys. And then if

1600
01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:29,880
Speaker 1: there are some of your guys, and by your guys,

1601
01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:31,439
Speaker 1: I mean people who fit your way of doing things

1602
01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:34,559
Speaker 1: in the portal, go get them supplementally, go get them.

1603
01:18:34,720 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 2: Don't build through the portal, because then what happens.

1604
01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,160
Speaker 1: What happens is you got to keep taking through the portal,

1605
01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:41,800
Speaker 1: so you end up not having something of your own.

1606
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,800
Speaker 1: You're just taking a bunch of someone else's. That's where

1607
01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 1: they are right now. In twenty twenty three, ended up

1608
01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:49,840
Speaker 1: lying to a lot of us and ended up lying

1609
01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:52,559
Speaker 1: to them, and they had enough hubris about themselves. Last

1610
01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:55,400
Speaker 1: year they thought they could take unproven guys in the

1611
01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:58,479
Speaker 1: portal from somewhere else, like take the number two over

1612
01:18:58,520 --> 01:18:59,840
Speaker 1: here and the number two over there, and they'll be

1613
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:02,040
Speaker 1: come ones here and will win with them.

1614
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:02,639
Speaker 2: No, you won't.

1615
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:04,960
Speaker 1: Turns out there was a reason those guys weren't starting.

1616
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:07,639
Speaker 1: So then this year they tried to go proven production

1617
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:10,559
Speaker 1: again in the portal. It's a total crapshoot. Two new

1618
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:15,120
Speaker 1: coordinators as well. So they're in a no man's land

1619
01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 1: right now at Florida State because it's another lost season

1620
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:21,759
Speaker 1: or they're on the presipoe of it being another lost season.

1621
01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:23,280
Speaker 2: What are they three and three? Jesse?

1622
01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:25,320
Speaker 1: I think they're a three loss team right now. And

1623
01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:29,880
Speaker 1: they got several more losable games. I mean, when you're

1624
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,960
Speaker 1: losing like this, every game's a losable game. They've been

1625
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,479
Speaker 1: close games, so we can say that at least on

1626
01:19:35,520 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 1: the scoreboard. The Miami game was close too. But there's

1627
01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:42,200
Speaker 1: another lost season. And here's what bites me so bad.

1628
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:46,599
Speaker 1: If I'm a Florida State fan. Clemson has been mortal

1629
01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 1: in this little stretch here. Clemson has been vulnerable. It's

1630
01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:52,599
Speaker 1: one thing if Clemson's still running roughshot the way they

1631
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:53,479
Speaker 1: did a decade ago.

1632
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:55,880
Speaker 2: It's not the entire conference.

1633
01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 1: Crown has never been more up for grabs, and we

1634
01:19:59,280 --> 01:20:03,639
Speaker 1: can't get out of our own way, and it's a shame.

1635
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:07,479
Speaker 1: So they go to Stanford. Next, they go to Clemson. Still,

1636
01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:10,040
Speaker 1: they go to NC State, they go to Florida, Like,

1637
01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:14,040
Speaker 1: what is there to look forward to? That's what I'm

1638
01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:16,080
Speaker 1: coming back to, and that's what I come back to

1639
01:20:16,200 --> 01:20:18,240
Speaker 1: With Mike Norvel. We went down there in the spring

1640
01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:21,200
Speaker 1: and I sat down with him and he was very candid.

1641
01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 2: Man.

1642
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:23,200
Speaker 1: I give him a ton of credit, and we loved

1643
01:20:23,240 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: our visit there, and he was very honest about where

1644
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:30,040
Speaker 1: they went wrong last couple of years, really where they

1645
01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 1: went wrong, the course correction they were trying to make.

1646
01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:37,760
Speaker 1: But he was very honest in saying, this may be

1647
01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:41,640
Speaker 1: more than a one year thing. You cannot be in

1648
01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:44,479
Speaker 1: the ditch they were in last year and have some

1649
01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:46,880
Speaker 1: blueprint that just get you right back to the top

1650
01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:49,280
Speaker 1: of the mountain in one year. That doesn't happen. I

1651
01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:51,720
Speaker 1: don't think that exists now. I don't think they were

1652
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:53,880
Speaker 1: foolish enough to believe it existed down there.

1653
01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:54,080
Speaker 2: Now.

1654
01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:56,360
Speaker 1: When the Bama game happened, it was kind of ooh,

1655
01:20:56,400 --> 01:20:59,559
Speaker 1: all bets are off. Maybe they totally course corrected. And

1656
01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 1: I had a little bit of that about myself after

1657
01:21:01,439 --> 01:21:03,200
Speaker 1: Week one, like I didn't know what I just watched.

1658
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:05,639
Speaker 1: It's week one. I got no clue. After week one,

1659
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:08,920
Speaker 1: no one does. The jello has not geled yet. It's

1660
01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:12,519
Speaker 1: still slotching around in the college football fridge. After week one,

1661
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:14,719
Speaker 1: well now it has started to congeal.

1662
01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:16,720
Speaker 2: I guess is the right word. Not a big jello guy.

1663
01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:18,240
Speaker 2: And I don't like.

1664
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:21,120
Speaker 1: I don't like what has settled in the fridge here.

1665
01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:26,720
Speaker 1: But what I took from Mike in the spring, is he?

1666
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:29,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he must have laid out like half a

1667
01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:32,360
Speaker 1: hundred different bullet points over the morning that I spent

1668
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:34,680
Speaker 1: down there. That was the day we flew from Tallahassee

1669
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:37,720
Speaker 1: to go Stormchase in Missouri, by the way, got a

1670
01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:40,120
Speaker 1: tornado that day, and back on.

1671
01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:42,839
Speaker 2: Track here, back on track. He laid out.

1672
01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:45,280
Speaker 1: So many things, And what I walked away from thinking

1673
01:21:45,439 --> 01:21:47,000
Speaker 1: was he fully believes everything.

1674
01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:47,840
Speaker 2: He just told me.

1675
01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:51,320
Speaker 1: There was no trying to sell you on anything. There

1676
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:53,960
Speaker 1: was no trying to convince himself of something like.

1677
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:55,240
Speaker 2: He was very resolute.

1678
01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:57,160
Speaker 1: You could tell there were a lot of sleepless nights

1679
01:21:57,200 --> 01:21:59,519
Speaker 1: that had gone into that, and they had pulled every

1680
01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:02,519
Speaker 1: lever they knew to pull, but it was going to

1681
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 1: take more than one year. So then I think to myself, technically,

1682
01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:10,560
Speaker 1: that's acceptable to me. I don't know if it's acceptable

1683
01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:13,840
Speaker 1: to a Florida State fan, but as an outsider, okay,

1684
01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 1: I'm the same way with Lincoln Riley at USC. Okay,

1685
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:18,479
Speaker 1: if you admit to me you got yourself in a

1686
01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:22,000
Speaker 1: ditch because of poor hiring or poor recruiting or whatever,

1687
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:25,320
Speaker 1: as long as you present a coherent plan to get

1688
01:22:25,320 --> 01:22:28,639
Speaker 1: out of the ditch from that point forward, like I'm

1689
01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:31,000
Speaker 1: willing to hit reset, I'm willing to give you a

1690
01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:34,280
Speaker 1: couple of years. The thing I kept coming back to

1691
01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 1: and the thing I will come back to now is

1692
01:22:37,160 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 1: even if go back to Spring, even if I resolved

1693
01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:43,280
Speaker 1: in my mind to give Mike Norvel and his staff

1694
01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:46,920
Speaker 1: multiple years from that point moving forward to get it right,

1695
01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:49,880
Speaker 1: even if I resolved in my mind to do that,

1696
01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:53,200
Speaker 1: I would have to answer first the question what are

1697
01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:56,640
Speaker 1: we building towards? I don't know what they're building. I

1698
01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:58,680
Speaker 1: don't know what the identity of the team's going to be.

1699
01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:00,720
Speaker 1: I don't know what the identity of the programs going

1700
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:01,920
Speaker 1: to be. I know what they want it to be.

1701
01:23:02,360 --> 01:23:06,639
Speaker 1: I'm asking what it's gonna be. What is the bedrock

1702
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:10,200
Speaker 1: of this program? Are they gonna recruit well enough? Are

1703
01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:12,519
Speaker 1: they gonna develop well enough? These are things you're still

1704
01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:15,160
Speaker 1: having to ask about. I don't think that's an unfair

1705
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:15,720
Speaker 1: take at all.

1706
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:18,320
Speaker 2: Man. I love Mike Norvel, but you gotta be real.

1707
01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:23,720
Speaker 1: I don't think that's an unfair take, and honestly, I

1708
01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:25,720
Speaker 1: would love to get some truth serum in him. You

1709
01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:28,200
Speaker 1: can't ask these questions during the season but you know,

1710
01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:29,440
Speaker 1: January February.

1711
01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:31,240
Speaker 2: I'd love to know what he thinks about that.

1712
01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:33,400
Speaker 1: And then the follow up question is is he gonna

1713
01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:35,760
Speaker 1: be there in January of February. I am of the

1714
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:38,400
Speaker 1: opinion that Penn State was crazy to pay the buy

1715
01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:41,280
Speaker 1: out for Franklin. Florida State would have to pay more

1716
01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 1: than that to fire Mike Norvella. I just don't know

1717
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:46,360
Speaker 1: that they're going to be there, But it's not a

1718
01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:48,880
Speaker 1: one year fix. As it turns out, they're watching us

1719
01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:53,000
Speaker 1: in Charlestown, Rhode Island, big college football town up there.

1720
01:23:53,040 --> 01:23:56,400
Speaker 1: I didn't know about Arland, Texas, Panama City, Florida. We

1721
01:23:56,439 --> 01:24:00,559
Speaker 1: appreciate you guys so much for being tuned in and

1722
01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:04,000
Speaker 1: let me just quickly put that in the chat so

1723
01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:07,600
Speaker 1: people know I'm looking. We still got a ton of

1724
01:24:07,600 --> 01:24:09,920
Speaker 1: show to get to. We still got the Sarah maclaughlan' special.

1725
01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:12,439
Speaker 1: We haven't done usc Man.

1726
01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:12,920
Speaker 2: Good for you.

1727
01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:19,360
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley thirty one to thirteen over Michigan two. Chalai game. Okay,

1728
01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:21,479
Speaker 1: it's not a game again that I think the public

1729
01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:23,720
Speaker 1: will talk about weeks and weeks from now. It was

1730
01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:26,480
Speaker 1: a helmet Game of the Year candidate, though, how beautiful

1731
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:26,840
Speaker 1: was that?

1732
01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:29,479
Speaker 2: What a blessing to have four K?

1733
01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:31,200
Speaker 1: Some of you're up to eight K and you got

1734
01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:35,120
Speaker 1: color TV there and just biggest screen in the house.

1735
01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:38,200
Speaker 1: Put it on, and you got Michigan in the coliseum

1736
01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:42,040
Speaker 1: against Southern cal on a Saturday afternoon, bright sunshine.

1737
01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:43,280
Speaker 2: Awesome.

1738
01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:47,160
Speaker 1: If you were watching a college football game yesterday, that's

1739
01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:49,439
Speaker 1: the one I kind of wanted you watching to get

1740
01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:52,000
Speaker 1: a taste of what it's supposed to look like and

1741
01:24:52,040 --> 01:24:55,000
Speaker 1: feel like. Lincoln Riley needed this game so bad. You

1742
01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:58,599
Speaker 1: know it, I know it, he needed it so bad. Question,

1743
01:24:59,320 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 1: do you remember what are those stats that were floating

1744
01:25:01,200 --> 01:25:04,920
Speaker 1: around last year about USC and one possession games and

1745
01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:06,040
Speaker 1: how many one possession games?

1746
01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:06,760
Speaker 2: What was it, Jesse?

1747
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:09,320
Speaker 1: Like four or five one possession games? They led in

1748
01:25:09,360 --> 01:25:12,120
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter they ended up losing the game. And

1749
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,160
Speaker 1: then I remember we had Lincoln on the show in

1750
01:25:15,200 --> 01:25:19,320
Speaker 1: the spring and he said, we're close, We're close, We're close.

1751
01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:20,720
Speaker 1: And I said, you know a lot of people think

1752
01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:22,720
Speaker 1: you're full of it. I said this to him. I said,

1753
01:25:22,720 --> 01:25:24,200
Speaker 1: what would you say to them? And he said, well,

1754
01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:26,920
Speaker 1: I would ask them if they watched our games last year.

1755
01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:29,920
Speaker 1: We were close in every game, so we're not where

1756
01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:32,599
Speaker 1: we want to be, but we're not far away. Okay,

1757
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:35,519
Speaker 1: So now you hit pause at that moment, you just

1758
01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:37,599
Speaker 1: bookmark that because you know the season's going to come.

1759
01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:40,599
Speaker 1: And I remember we had a subsequent show and I said,

1760
01:25:40,800 --> 01:25:43,880
Speaker 1: you know what would absolve that stat from even being

1761
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:48,840
Speaker 1: necessary to be quoted? Win games by multiple possessions. So

1762
01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:51,519
Speaker 1: how do you keep the one possession stat at Bay

1763
01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:55,360
Speaker 1: Paper popper of a stat the best stat of all

1764
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:56,120
Speaker 1: the scoreboard.

1765
01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:57,679
Speaker 2: Just win the game by eighteen.

1766
01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:00,559
Speaker 1: That's how it's a great thing they figured out out there.

1767
01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:03,320
Speaker 1: There is a difference, though, This is where I'm gonna

1768
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:07,000
Speaker 1: draw some criticism. Probably there is a difference between an

1769
01:26:07,040 --> 01:26:09,640
Speaker 1: impressive win and a statement win. This was not the

1770
01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:12,280
Speaker 1: statement win for Southern Cal, but it's a very impressive win.

1771
01:26:12,400 --> 01:26:14,559
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what the statement would be in just

1772
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,719
Speaker 1: a second. But it's impressive cause Mayava gave us exactly

1773
01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:21,280
Speaker 1: what we needed at quarterback twenty five thirty two, two

1774
01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:25,080
Speaker 1: sixty five, two touchdowns, one pick. But I'll tell you

1775
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:28,759
Speaker 1: what was more impressive mayavas seventy eight percent completion.

1776
01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:29,559
Speaker 2: Yes, that's good.

1777
01:26:29,800 --> 01:26:33,679
Speaker 1: What's more impressive is USC did what Michigan was supposed

1778
01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:35,720
Speaker 1: to do. And that's a sentence that I want to

1779
01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:38,440
Speaker 1: just take some time to resay, to restate.

1780
01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:42,600
Speaker 2: USC played the game Michigan is supposed to play.

1781
01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:44,519
Speaker 1: Because if there's a team that's going to carry it

1782
01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 1: thirty six times for two hundred and twenty four and

1783
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,799
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, if they're going to have runs of forty

1784
01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:54,720
Speaker 1: nine yards, forty seven yards and twenty nine yards, that

1785
01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:59,240
Speaker 1: is supposed to be Michigan. And it was USC. And

1786
01:26:59,280 --> 01:27:02,040
Speaker 1: I'm golf class happen them all night for that. And

1787
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:04,720
Speaker 1: they also, for good measure, held Michigan to three and

1788
01:27:04,720 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 1: a half yards per carry and Michigan's longest run was

1789
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:10,240
Speaker 1: thirteen yards, and that right there is something USC football

1790
01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:12,000
Speaker 1: is not done in a long time. So that is

1791
01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:15,280
Speaker 1: very impressive. It's not the statement. It is not the statement,

1792
01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:18,280
Speaker 1: not quite yet. I'll tell you what the statement would be.

1793
01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:22,880
Speaker 1: I think it's coming together on defense though, and it's

1794
01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:24,760
Speaker 1: better late than ever, and it still got a little

1795
01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:27,719
Speaker 1: ways to go. Make no mistake, all right, Michigan cannot

1796
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:30,639
Speaker 1: throw the ball very well. You will be tested more thoroughly,

1797
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:33,800
Speaker 1: maybe as soon as this week. But the defense is

1798
01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:36,240
Speaker 1: coming together. They held Michigan to two of eleven on

1799
01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:38,760
Speaker 1: third and fourth down, they had three sacks. They had

1800
01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:41,679
Speaker 1: two picks. Again, these are numbers that we haven't seen

1801
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:44,920
Speaker 1: USC defense put up in a long time. Michigan's sort

1802
01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:48,320
Speaker 1: of in a weird spot, are they not. Michigan is

1803
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:51,760
Speaker 1: four and two. They could go nine and three, they

1804
01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:58,000
Speaker 1: could go eight and four. I'm gonna say this, that's

1805
01:27:58,040 --> 01:27:59,640
Speaker 1: not going to be good enough for some people at

1806
01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:02,320
Speaker 1: Michigan if it's a nine and three or eight and four.

1807
01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:05,280
Speaker 1: I'm not telling you how I feel about it, because

1808
01:28:05,320 --> 01:28:08,960
Speaker 1: you know that coaching changes are always a last resort

1809
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:12,200
Speaker 1: for me this day and age, more than ever. I

1810
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:15,240
Speaker 1: don't think that's where Michigan's had that. I think there

1811
01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:17,920
Speaker 1: are some people around the Michigan program that would look

1812
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,080
Speaker 1: at nine and three and certainly would look at eight

1813
01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:22,760
Speaker 1: and four and say, we're making a change. And I'm

1814
01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:25,800
Speaker 1: telling you that if that happens, not to be too

1815
01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:31,240
Speaker 1: surprised by it, so they can control that by winning.

1816
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:34,800
Speaker 1: If they don't run the table and they go nine

1817
01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:37,479
Speaker 1: and three or worse, there's going to be some noise.

1818
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:41,240
Speaker 1: And it's not noise that I necessarily think the entire

1819
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:44,920
Speaker 1: country's focused on right now, because they're looking elsewhere. Just

1820
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:47,760
Speaker 1: keep Michigan on the back burner there. Now a lot

1821
01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:49,639
Speaker 1: can happen there, trust me, a lot can happen there.

1822
01:28:50,320 --> 01:28:54,240
Speaker 1: Statement win, that's what they're calling this for USC. I

1823
01:28:54,280 --> 01:28:57,200
Speaker 1: want to be respectful. This is a very impressive win

1824
01:28:57,240 --> 01:29:00,880
Speaker 1: for USC, extremely impressive for all the reasons I just detailed.

1825
01:29:01,360 --> 01:29:05,680
Speaker 1: It is not a statement. When the statement is going

1826
01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:08,120
Speaker 1: to have to be made this Saturday, you don't make

1827
01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:11,760
Speaker 1: a statement again, all due respect to the performance, by

1828
01:29:11,800 --> 01:29:13,520
Speaker 1: beating a team you're favorite.

1829
01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:14,000
Speaker 2: Against at home.

1830
01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:18,160
Speaker 1: You make a statement by going on the road multiple

1831
01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:22,320
Speaker 1: time zones away to South Bend, Indiana this Saturday and

1832
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:25,680
Speaker 1: facing a very resurgent Notre Dame team, a team that

1833
01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:29,920
Speaker 1: thinks it's going to outclass you physically, and beating them.

1834
01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:32,840
Speaker 1: That's how you make the statement. That's when you know

1835
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:35,880
Speaker 1: USC is a prime playoff contender because they're on the

1836
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:39,120
Speaker 1: fringe of being that right now. You make the statement

1837
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:43,200
Speaker 1: this weekend. You just were impressive yesterday. The statement comes

1838
01:29:43,200 --> 01:29:46,519
Speaker 1: in six days. The opportunity to make the statement comes

1839
01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:48,280
Speaker 1: in six days. Because I'm telling you, if they go

1840
01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:51,120
Speaker 1: to USC and they beat us, or if they go

1841
01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:54,479
Speaker 1: to Notre Dame and they beat Notre Dame. That removes

1842
01:29:54,479 --> 01:29:56,840
Speaker 1: Notre Dame from the playoff. So, first off, you beat

1843
01:29:56,920 --> 01:30:00,479
Speaker 1: a rival. Secondly, you knocked them out of the pl layoff,

1844
01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:03,559
Speaker 1: which frees up a playoff spot for you or anyone

1845
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:08,360
Speaker 1: else and is fourth ly, fourthly, you solidified yourself as

1846
01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:12,559
Speaker 1: a playoff contender. Can you imagine what the USC Oregon

1847
01:30:12,600 --> 01:30:15,479
Speaker 1: game looks like? If the dust settles this Saturday night.

1848
01:30:15,640 --> 01:30:18,599
Speaker 1: USC has won on the road in South Bend. Can

1849
01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:22,960
Speaker 1: you imagine the ghosts and the demons that are vanquished

1850
01:30:23,479 --> 01:30:25,720
Speaker 1: over there in Los Angeles on that plane ride home

1851
01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:29,519
Speaker 1: if they do that, Chad Chad Bowden, by the way,

1852
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:32,519
Speaker 1: left Notre Dame as the GM to be the GM

1853
01:30:32,560 --> 01:30:34,320
Speaker 1: at USC. Can you imagine what this week is like

1854
01:30:34,360 --> 01:30:35,000
Speaker 1: for him?

1855
01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:35,960
Speaker 2: Big week?

1856
01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:39,080
Speaker 1: This is the statement week, Make no mistake about it.

1857
01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:43,800
Speaker 1: This is the statement week, one way or another. I've

1858
01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:45,080
Speaker 1: got more added takeaways.

1859
01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:49,760
Speaker 2: What do we add? An hour thirty hour thirty.

1860
01:30:50,640 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 1: Let's see one of my favorite quotes. I don't okay.

1861
01:30:56,439 --> 01:30:58,479
Speaker 1: So Cameron is in the live chat. This is no

1862
01:30:58,560 --> 01:31:03,920
Speaker 1: knock on Cameron. Cameron is making a statement about Notre Dame.

1863
01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:06,880
Speaker 1: He said, Notre Dame is so mid from my forty

1864
01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:10,240
Speaker 1: and overcrowd. That just means average blooh, Notre Dame. There's

1865
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:13,400
Speaker 1: nothing special about it. Notre Dame would be favored against

1866
01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:15,479
Speaker 1: all but like five teams in the country. Right now,

1867
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:18,479
Speaker 1: just give you an idea. We'll talk about the ap

1868
01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:23,040
Speaker 1: pole later added takeaways. LSU beat South Carolina twenty to ten.

1869
01:31:23,320 --> 01:31:25,639
Speaker 1: Now I saw some of the college football public calling

1870
01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:30,200
Speaker 1: this an ugly win. I saw this one a little

1871
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:33,680
Speaker 1: bit differently. I've been critical of LSU. I thought this

1872
01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:36,720
Speaker 1: was an extremely important week for that offensive staff, and

1873
01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:40,880
Speaker 1: I got to tell you, man, this was an ugly game.

1874
01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:44,800
Speaker 1: I was encouraged by LSU last night. They won twenty

1875
01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:47,320
Speaker 1: to ten. They had five point five yards per carry.

1876
01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:51,160
Speaker 1: They had three explosive carries, so they came out of

1877
01:31:51,160 --> 01:31:55,519
Speaker 1: this game last night. There were two turnovers inside the five.

1878
01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:58,040
Speaker 1: It kept it from being a blowout. There was a

1879
01:31:58,040 --> 01:31:59,680
Speaker 1: lot of promise in this game. I don't know how

1880
01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:01,799
Speaker 1: most people watch this because there were so many games

1881
01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:05,720
Speaker 1: on The work that offensive staff put in over the

1882
01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:08,160
Speaker 1: bye week was very obvious to me, and I got

1883
01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:08,800
Speaker 1: to credit them.

1884
01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:10,719
Speaker 2: I got a hat tip them because I've.

1885
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:13,400
Speaker 1: Been critical of them, because they should have been criticized

1886
01:32:13,400 --> 01:32:15,639
Speaker 1: so far this year. Those are big boy jobs down

1887
01:32:15,680 --> 01:32:19,120
Speaker 1: at LSU, and they hadn't been good enough. The answers

1888
01:32:19,160 --> 01:32:21,640
Speaker 1: to LSU's problems are in their building. I feel the

1889
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:23,600
Speaker 1: same way about them as I feel at Texas. You

1890
01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:26,880
Speaker 1: are good enough. You just gotta angle it just the

1891
01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:29,200
Speaker 1: right way, and you got to squeeze every ounce of

1892
01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:32,000
Speaker 1: potential out of this team. You're good enough get the

1893
01:32:32,120 --> 01:32:34,640
Speaker 1: job done. They got the job done last night, and

1894
01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:36,840
Speaker 1: they left meat on the bone. They were missing Aaron

1895
01:32:36,880 --> 01:32:40,840
Speaker 1: Anderson too, So I credit them. Man, that was a

1896
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:43,519
Speaker 1: good game. That was a good performance on the ground

1897
01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:46,360
Speaker 1: from them. Defense is always going to be there. You

1898
01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:49,160
Speaker 1: don't need to score forty a game. Special teams is

1899
01:32:49,160 --> 01:32:53,320
Speaker 1: outstanding for them. So play a complimentary enough style of football,

1900
01:32:54,120 --> 01:32:58,480
Speaker 1: be multifaceted enough, and that team can still be very dangerous.

1901
01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:01,320
Speaker 1: That's not a team that's hit peak yet. Now I

1902
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:03,799
Speaker 1: say that we're gonna see him in person this Saturday

1903
01:33:03,840 --> 01:33:06,360
Speaker 1: in Nashville. They're going to Vandy. They are a point

1904
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:09,760
Speaker 1: spread underdog against Vanderbilt. And they still got A and M.

1905
01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:11,680
Speaker 1: And they got Bama and they got Oklahoma. They got

1906
01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:13,720
Speaker 1: a lot of tough games left. But you know what,

1907
01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:15,920
Speaker 1: LSU can be a pretty tough out as well if

1908
01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:18,400
Speaker 1: they play the style of ball. I still think they're

1909
01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:21,920
Speaker 1: capable of playing. Ohio State is playing that style of ball.

1910
01:33:22,400 --> 01:33:25,840
Speaker 1: Thirty four to sixteen, Ohio State over Illinois. Illinois never

1911
01:33:25,920 --> 01:33:29,599
Speaker 1: had a prayer here. This point spread was amazing to

1912
01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:31,439
Speaker 1: me that it was that low. And it's not like

1913
01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:36,600
Speaker 1: Ohio State one pulling away, but they just they just suffocated.

1914
01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:39,160
Speaker 1: Illinois box score is gonna lie to you here. Don't

1915
01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 1: look at the total yardage. Ohio State was perfect in

1916
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:45,839
Speaker 1: the red zone defense, force three turnovers. They held Illinois

1917
01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:47,479
Speaker 1: under two yards per carry.

1918
01:33:47,600 --> 01:33:48,759
Speaker 2: They're just so good.

1919
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:51,240
Speaker 1: Ryan Day's putting on a clinic right now. Man, This

1920
01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:53,920
Speaker 1: is it could end up being his best coaching job

1921
01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:57,000
Speaker 1: for reasons. We'll probably end up talking about down the stretch,

1922
01:33:57,040 --> 01:33:58,400
Speaker 1: so I'm not going to talk your ear off about

1923
01:33:58,439 --> 01:34:02,719
Speaker 1: Ohio State. Tennis See edged Arkansas thirty four to thirty one.

1924
01:34:02,880 --> 01:34:06,679
Speaker 1: You know, the Model circled Indiana as its favorite bet

1925
01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:09,479
Speaker 1: last week, and we did not end up betting Indiana,

1926
01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:13,080
Speaker 1: and for that I apologize. The Model's second favorite bet

1927
01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:17,160
Speaker 1: was Arkansas plus the points, and I waited too late

1928
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:18,560
Speaker 1: in the week. And that line moved from twelve and

1929
01:34:18,600 --> 01:34:21,200
Speaker 1: a half to ten and a half, and I state

1930
01:34:21,280 --> 01:34:24,600
Speaker 1: my regret there as well. But I talked about it

1931
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:27,160
Speaker 1: a lot on the show Upset Alert Concern on Thursday.

1932
01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:28,519
Speaker 1: I put it like an eight or an eight and

1933
01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:30,120
Speaker 1: a half. In this game, I had a lot of

1934
01:34:30,160 --> 01:34:33,120
Speaker 1: people that I thought were friends of mine trash me

1935
01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:36,519
Speaker 1: privately at least and say, how in the world do

1936
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:39,559
Speaker 1: you think Tennessee coming off a bye at home is

1937
01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:42,599
Speaker 1: going to struggle against an Arkansas team with an interim

1938
01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:47,200
Speaker 1: head coach. You saw how you saw how there's not

1939
01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:50,080
Speaker 1: that much separation in the SEC this year. I'm just

1940
01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:53,639
Speaker 1: telling you Tennessee's defense is a real liability, and Bobby

1941
01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:57,000
Speaker 1: Petrino and that staff and that quarterback are really capable

1942
01:34:57,000 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 1: of exposing it, or at least taking enough advantage of

1943
01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:01,439
Speaker 1: it to make it a game. And here's how crazy

1944
01:35:01,520 --> 01:35:05,519
Speaker 1: the SEC is. If Tennessee makes a field goal against Georgia,

1945
01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:08,559
Speaker 1: they're undefeated, they're in the top five. So we're sitting

1946
01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:12,360
Speaker 1: here talking about them having this vulnerability. And they've listen

1947
01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:15,720
Speaker 1: their last two conference games Mississippi State in Arkansas, that

1948
01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:18,960
Speaker 1: defense has given up points and then Mississippi State goes in,

1949
01:35:19,040 --> 01:35:23,120
Speaker 1: gets shut down by A and M and Georgia. They

1950
01:35:23,120 --> 01:35:25,400
Speaker 1: gave up forty four to Georgia earlier in the year.

1951
01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:28,760
Speaker 1: Georgia got clapped down on pretty hard against Alabama. They

1952
01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:32,040
Speaker 1: struggled against Auburn last night. So we have seen several

1953
01:35:32,320 --> 01:35:36,839
Speaker 1: examples of teams flourish offensively against Tennessee and then struggle

1954
01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:39,599
Speaker 1: elsewhere to know this defense is going to be a problem.

1955
01:35:40,680 --> 01:35:43,080
Speaker 1: It's just the same with Tennessee as everyone else in

1956
01:35:43,120 --> 01:35:47,200
Speaker 1: the SEC. No one's perfect in that league. Everyone's got flaws.

1957
01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:50,519
Speaker 1: Everyone's dam has at least eleven holes in it, and

1958
01:35:50,680 --> 01:35:53,840
Speaker 1: every team has no more than ten fingers, So everyone

1959
01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:56,040
Speaker 1: has more holes to plug than they have fingers to

1960
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:59,040
Speaker 1: plug them. Who does it best, that's who's going to

1961
01:35:59,080 --> 01:36:01,840
Speaker 1: win the league. And Tennessee's just another one of those teams.

1962
01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:04,280
Speaker 1: They go to Bama this Saturday. They are over a

1963
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:08,240
Speaker 1: touchdown underdog. Third Saturday in October. Hypel has won that

1964
01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:11,240
Speaker 1: game two of the last three years, so there you go.

1965
01:36:11,880 --> 01:36:17,240
Speaker 1: Texas Tech sort of embarrassed me yesterday. Well they made

1966
01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:21,559
Speaker 1: me embarrass myself. They beat Kansas forty two to seventeen,

1967
01:36:22,200 --> 01:36:25,760
Speaker 1: and I doubted them. Last week I took Kansas plus

1968
01:36:25,760 --> 01:36:28,920
Speaker 1: the points. I doubted that they'd be up for this game.

1969
01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:31,720
Speaker 1: I thought, going to Houston the week before and dominating,

1970
01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:34,439
Speaker 1: having a trip to Arizona State on deck, and having

1971
01:36:34,479 --> 01:36:36,880
Speaker 1: this little sleepy game against Kansas at home, I thought

1972
01:36:36,920 --> 01:36:42,000
Speaker 1: it may bite them. And I even have received confirmation

1973
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:45,800
Speaker 1: from inside the building out there that my words were

1974
01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:49,759
Speaker 1: used as a weapon inside the building, which really puts

1975
01:36:49,800 --> 01:36:52,040
Speaker 1: us in a no win position. Because if I predict

1976
01:36:52,120 --> 01:36:55,120
Speaker 1: upset alert and then the team that we're predicting to

1977
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:58,679
Speaker 1: be on upset alert takes our words and uses them

1978
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:01,480
Speaker 1: to fuel the team, We're in a no win situation.

1979
01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:04,160
Speaker 1: We're really in a no win situation. The Joey maguire

1980
01:37:04,160 --> 01:37:06,080
Speaker 1: has put us in a no win situation. He has

1981
01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:09,519
Speaker 1: put his team in a multi win situation though, so

1982
01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:11,600
Speaker 1: I guess that's really what counts, because they won the

1983
01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,200
Speaker 1: second half twenty one to nothing. They oh this is

1984
01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:18,280
Speaker 1: paper popper. Texas Tech ran for more yards than Kansas

1985
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:22,800
Speaker 1: had total yards, three seventy two. That's how many yards

1986
01:37:22,840 --> 01:37:25,599
Speaker 1: they ran for. Throw the tortillas, by the way, keep

1987
01:37:25,640 --> 01:37:27,960
Speaker 1: throwing the tortillas. They are a ten and a half

1988
01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:30,080
Speaker 1: point favorite. At least as of a couple of hours

1989
01:37:30,120 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 1: ago at Arizona State this weekend. They are now a

1990
01:37:34,160 --> 01:37:36,639
Speaker 1: huge favorite to win the Big Twelve. They are minus

1991
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:38,800
Speaker 1: one seven five to win the Big Twelve. The next

1992
01:37:38,800 --> 01:37:42,080
Speaker 1: closest team is Utah Hoops, they throttled with their backup

1993
01:37:42,120 --> 01:37:44,439
Speaker 1: quarterback on the road a couple of weeks ago at

1994
01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:49,040
Speaker 1: plus seven hundred. The Big Twelve and the SEC have

1995
01:37:49,280 --> 01:37:53,280
Speaker 1: totally traded places. The SEC is now the league that

1996
01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:55,360
Speaker 1: anyone could win, and the Big Twelve is now the

1997
01:37:55,439 --> 01:37:58,519
Speaker 1: league where it's someone and everyone else, and the someone

1998
01:37:58,600 --> 01:37:59,719
Speaker 1: is Texas Tech.

1999
01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:05,880
Speaker 2: We continue. It was bad. It was bad. It was bad.

2000
01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:12,280
Speaker 1: Iowa beat Wisconsin thirty seven to nothing. Hold on just

2001
01:38:12,320 --> 01:38:14,479
Speaker 1: a second, press, hold on just a second, Bradley, We're

2002
01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:15,760
Speaker 1: on the precipice of something here.

2003
01:38:17,080 --> 01:38:18,760
Speaker 2: I can't believe it's this bad.

2004
01:38:19,120 --> 01:38:22,360
Speaker 1: I took under five and a half wins on the

2005
01:38:22,400 --> 01:38:25,360
Speaker 1: season for Wisconsin, so suffice it to say, I thought

2006
01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:28,320
Speaker 1: it would be bad. It's worse than I thought it

2007
01:38:28,320 --> 01:38:29,880
Speaker 1: would be. You want to know how bad it is?

2008
01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:35,920
Speaker 1: This week's Sarah McLaughlin special the Wisconsin Badgers. They were

2009
01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:39,360
Speaker 1: shut out thirty seven to nothing by Iowa. That Iowa

2010
01:38:40,160 --> 01:38:42,920
Speaker 1: thirty seven to nothing. They had eighty two passing yards.

2011
01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:46,600
Speaker 1: They had eight completions, two picks. They were six of

2012
01:38:46,760 --> 01:38:51,639
Speaker 1: sixteen on third and fourth down. Here is ear muffs kids.

2013
01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:58,360
Speaker 1: The Wisconsin drive chart. Punt interception, interception, three and out, fumble,

2014
01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:04,120
Speaker 1: turnover on down, punt three and out, turnover on downs,

2015
01:39:04,520 --> 01:39:07,680
Speaker 1: punt punt.

2016
01:39:06,680 --> 01:39:07,880
Speaker 2: End of game. That was it.

2017
01:39:07,960 --> 01:39:12,160
Speaker 1: People paid money to watch this performance. Iowa scored more

2018
01:39:12,200 --> 01:39:14,720
Speaker 1: points in this game than Wisconsin has scored their last

2019
01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:20,920
Speaker 1: three games combined. Again that Iowa offensively inept. Iowa scored

2020
01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:23,479
Speaker 1: more on you than you've scored the past three games combined.

2021
01:39:23,479 --> 01:39:26,360
Speaker 1: It's the first time Wisconsin's been shut out at home

2022
01:39:26,600 --> 01:39:32,360
Speaker 1: since nineteen eighty Luke Fickle fifteen and seventeen. And the

2023
01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:35,080
Speaker 1: offense this year one hundred and twenty nine total points,

2024
01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:38,559
Speaker 1: yards per game, one hundred and thirty, first in points

2025
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:40,719
Speaker 1: per game one hundred and thirty, fourth.

2026
01:39:40,560 --> 01:39:45,599
Speaker 2: And explosive plays. They are headed towards their first back

2027
01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:46,120
Speaker 2: to back.

2028
01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:50,120
Speaker 1: Losing seasons since nineteen ninety one and nineteen ninety two.

2029
01:39:50,520 --> 01:39:53,200
Speaker 1: There is no relief in sight. I can't believe it's

2030
01:39:53,240 --> 01:39:55,960
Speaker 1: this bad. And I'm the guy who took under five

2031
01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:58,400
Speaker 1: and a half total wins on the season. You're Sarah

2032
01:39:58,479 --> 01:40:03,200
Speaker 1: McLaughlin special. It pains me to say the Wisconsin.

2033
01:40:02,680 --> 01:40:08,519
Speaker 2: Badgers, man, it's bad. People are asking are they going

2034
01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:10,280
Speaker 2: to make a coaching change. I don't know.

2035
01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:15,679
Speaker 1: I don't really know anyone at Wisconsin. I know Wisconsin, though,

2036
01:40:15,800 --> 01:40:18,280
Speaker 1: and it's not supposed to look like that. In the

2037
01:40:18,320 --> 01:40:23,599
Speaker 1: interest of how good teams are, the AP pole has dropped.

2038
01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:28,360
Speaker 1: The AP pole is upon us, generated by flex power.

2039
01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:30,599
Speaker 1: I have it in my hand right now. We have

2040
01:40:30,720 --> 01:40:33,519
Speaker 1: some movement. Some teams are moving. Some teams are moving

2041
01:40:33,560 --> 01:40:36,160
Speaker 1: a little close to where the Commissioner's pole already had them.

2042
01:40:36,320 --> 01:40:37,960
Speaker 2: But I digress. Let's take a look.

2043
01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:42,560
Speaker 1: Number twenty five is Nebraska and number twenty four is Cincinnati.

2044
01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:46,280
Speaker 1: Now where have I heard that before? Cincinnati? Let me

2045
01:40:46,320 --> 01:40:49,680
Speaker 1: remind you lost to Nebraska head to head on a

2046
01:40:49,720 --> 01:40:52,439
Speaker 1: neutral field in week one, and yet the AP has

2047
01:40:52,479 --> 01:40:54,920
Speaker 1: taken a line from the Commissioner's pole and they have

2048
01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:58,719
Speaker 1: put Cincinnati ahead of Nebraska. Why. Well, because the deeper

2049
01:40:58,720 --> 01:41:03,040
Speaker 1: you get into the season, obviously, the more filled out

2050
01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:06,160
Speaker 1: the resume becomes, and the body of work includes so

2051
01:41:06,200 --> 01:41:08,280
Speaker 1: many data points that you got more to go on

2052
01:41:08,400 --> 01:41:10,479
Speaker 1: than just head to head, although head to head is

2053
01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:14,320
Speaker 1: still important. So I actually agree with Cincinnati being ahead

2054
01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:15,960
Speaker 1: of Nebraska, albeit slightly.

2055
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:16,920
Speaker 2: I'm okay with it.

2056
01:41:17,160 --> 01:41:21,400
Speaker 1: Surprisingly Utah twenty three, Memphis twenty two. Okay, Texas is

2057
01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:23,360
Speaker 1: at twenty one. I just want you to earmark that

2058
01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:27,440
Speaker 1: two lost. Texas is at twenty one. Very impressive win yesterday.

2059
01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:32,040
Speaker 1: We'll come back to that. USC is number twenty ahead

2060
01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:35,559
Speaker 1: of their showdown on the road against Notre Dame. Notre

2061
01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:39,160
Speaker 1: Dame's at thirteen. By the way, USF jumped five spots.

2062
01:41:40,280 --> 01:41:42,280
Speaker 1: We already had him up a little higher than the

2063
01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:46,200
Speaker 1: AP did, so the Commissioner's poll agrees with this. USF

2064
01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:48,960
Speaker 1: was at one point I think, minus three turnovers the

2065
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:52,760
Speaker 1: other night and still just dump trucked North Texas on

2066
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:56,280
Speaker 1: the road. Alex Golish, by the way, as these jobs

2067
01:41:56,280 --> 01:42:00,559
Speaker 1: start opening up, make sure you have his number. I

2068
01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:03,160
Speaker 1: know everyone wants to look far and wide and you

2069
01:42:03,200 --> 01:42:06,080
Speaker 1: want the flashy name, and Frankly Alis Schleiss is a

2070
01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:09,080
Speaker 1: little flashy. I don't think he's all that flashy a person,

2071
01:42:09,880 --> 01:42:11,439
Speaker 1: nor does he try to be. But I mean they

2072
01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:14,560
Speaker 1: hung sixty three in Denton and Denton, how many of

2073
01:42:14,640 --> 01:42:17,320
Speaker 1: you could say that you think Ohio State's ever gone

2074
01:42:17,320 --> 01:42:18,519
Speaker 1: into North Texas and done that.

2075
01:42:18,600 --> 01:42:19,160
Speaker 2: I think not.

2076
01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:23,720
Speaker 1: Vandy is number Let's see Virginia's eighteen. Vandy is seventeen.

2077
01:42:24,320 --> 01:42:26,880
Speaker 1: That is still too low. Vanderbilt is still too low.

2078
01:42:27,040 --> 01:42:29,080
Speaker 1: We will be there, Faul don't lye tour at a

2079
01:42:29,120 --> 01:42:32,320
Speaker 1: Vandy game second year in a row. This Saturday, Missouri's

2080
01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:35,479
Speaker 1: at sixteen. They only drop two spots, which I'm okay with.

2081
01:42:35,920 --> 01:42:38,880
Speaker 1: If you have Bama ranked where they're ranked in Missouri

2082
01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:40,439
Speaker 1: loss to him, they shouldn't drop that much.

2083
01:42:40,520 --> 01:42:41,200
Speaker 2: All right, here we go.

2084
01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,640
Speaker 1: Brigham Young is fifteenth. They're undefeated, and everyone's trying to

2085
01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:47,400
Speaker 1: figure out where do we put them. They don't have

2086
01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:49,680
Speaker 1: a high quality win, but yet they've won all the

2087
01:42:49,720 --> 01:42:52,880
Speaker 1: games they've played. Fifteenth is about right to me. That's

2088
01:42:53,400 --> 01:42:55,840
Speaker 1: maybe where the Commissioner's poll even will have them. I

2089
01:42:55,880 --> 01:42:58,160
Speaker 1: do need to bump Brigham Young up a little bit.

2090
01:42:58,560 --> 01:43:00,839
Speaker 1: I doubted them last night. I thought that to Arizona

2091
01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:04,200
Speaker 1: they did not. I can't predict that, obviously, so I

2092
01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:06,120
Speaker 1: have to wait till the game happens to react to it.

2093
01:43:06,479 --> 01:43:11,160
Speaker 1: Oklahoma dropped eight spots, and here's notre Dame at thirteenth,

2094
01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:13,000
Speaker 1: So I want to talk to you for a second.

2095
01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:17,040
Speaker 1: Notre Dame thirteen, Texas twenty one. They're both two lost teams.

2096
01:43:17,840 --> 01:43:19,439
Speaker 1: Does it make sense to you that Notre Dame is

2097
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:20,720
Speaker 1: not much higher than Texas?

2098
01:43:21,160 --> 01:43:21,720
Speaker 2: Because I was.

2099
01:43:21,680 --> 01:43:24,479
Speaker 1: Looking at it. Texas beat Oklahoma yesterday. That's a way

2100
01:43:24,600 --> 01:43:27,920
Speaker 1: higher quality win than Notre Dame has. So Texas has

2101
01:43:27,960 --> 01:43:30,880
Speaker 1: the way better win. They both have two losses.

2102
01:43:33,320 --> 01:43:34,599
Speaker 2: I think that.

2103
01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:38,720
Speaker 1: Notre Dame having the p four wins is floating their

2104
01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:41,799
Speaker 1: boat a little higher because they've got wins. But it's Purdue,

2105
01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:45,599
Speaker 1: it's NC State, it's Arkansas. So I guess it just

2106
01:43:45,720 --> 01:43:48,040
Speaker 1: kind of comes down to what you believe in more,

2107
01:43:48,120 --> 01:43:49,640
Speaker 1: what you value more. But I'll tell you what I

2108
01:43:49,680 --> 01:43:52,040
Speaker 1: think people are really doing, which you're not supposed to do,

2109
01:43:52,280 --> 01:43:54,880
Speaker 1: and the commissioners pull certainly wouldn't do. I think people

2110
01:43:54,880 --> 01:43:57,799
Speaker 1: are projecting with their Notre Dame ranking. I think people

2111
01:43:57,840 --> 01:43:59,760
Speaker 1: believe Notre Dame has gotten its act together for the

2112
01:43:59,800 --> 01:44:03,200
Speaker 1: rest rec I do as well, but that doesn't matter.

2113
01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:05,360
Speaker 1: They'll play the games and they'll prove it. So people

2114
01:44:05,400 --> 01:44:07,519
Speaker 1: think Notre Dame has gotten its sact together, and since

2115
01:44:07,560 --> 01:44:10,800
Speaker 1: they had Notre Dame top ten preseason, and they believe

2116
01:44:10,840 --> 01:44:13,000
Speaker 1: Notre Dame has gotten its act together. They think Notre

2117
01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:16,200
Speaker 1: Dame has reverted to the form they thought they were

2118
01:44:16,200 --> 01:44:18,679
Speaker 1: going to be in the preseason, which means they're ranking

2119
01:44:18,800 --> 01:44:20,840
Speaker 1: them a lot more in line with what they think

2120
01:44:20,880 --> 01:44:24,439
Speaker 1: they are moving forward, which I've got a problem with

2121
01:44:24,680 --> 01:44:27,760
Speaker 1: because that is predictive. That's called power ratings, but that's

2122
01:44:27,760 --> 01:44:29,879
Speaker 1: not what this claims to be. This claims to be rankings.

2123
01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:32,160
Speaker 1: So Notre Dame at thirteen's a little strange to me.

2124
01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:36,200
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech's at twelve, Tennessee is at eleven. LSU is

2125
01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:38,400
Speaker 1: in the top ten, and I'm keeping my eye peeled

2126
01:44:38,439 --> 01:44:40,400
Speaker 1: on LSU because out of all these teams, like I

2127
01:44:40,439 --> 01:44:42,679
Speaker 1: think LSU may have a higher ceiling than Georgia.

2128
01:44:43,320 --> 01:44:44,080
Speaker 2: Higher ceiling.

2129
01:44:44,560 --> 01:44:48,000
Speaker 1: Now that assumes that maybe one day Garrett Nussmeyer is

2130
01:44:48,040 --> 01:44:50,840
Speaker 1: going to be all the way fully healthy, get Aaron

2131
01:44:50,880 --> 01:44:55,679
Speaker 1: Anderson back at wide receiver, get your ground game going enough.

2132
01:44:56,160 --> 01:44:58,839
Speaker 1: There may be a little higher potential about that LSU

2133
01:44:58,920 --> 01:45:02,679
Speaker 1: team because they play better defense. They have a more dynamic,

2134
01:45:02,720 --> 01:45:06,560
Speaker 1: more athletic defense, So there is a potentially great aspect

2135
01:45:06,800 --> 01:45:09,240
Speaker 1: to that LSU team. They're at ten right now, I'm

2136
01:45:09,280 --> 01:45:11,680
Speaker 1: okay with that. Georgia's at nine, I'm okay with that.

2137
01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:15,400
Speaker 1: Oregon dropped to eight. They drop five spots. You always

2138
01:45:15,479 --> 01:45:18,559
Speaker 1: wonder if you're ranking, if you're a polster, if you're

2139
01:45:18,560 --> 01:45:20,920
Speaker 1: filling out a ballot, or you got Oregon at eight.

2140
01:45:21,000 --> 01:45:23,840
Speaker 1: Penn State clearly is not ranked. Oregon's best win is

2141
01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:26,160
Speaker 1: over Penn State. How do you look at that game?

2142
01:45:26,439 --> 01:45:28,439
Speaker 1: Because I look at games and the way I ranked

2143
01:45:28,479 --> 01:45:31,800
Speaker 1: teams is I try and crystallize the value of a

2144
01:45:31,880 --> 01:45:35,640
Speaker 1: game when it happens, and very rarely do I like

2145
01:45:35,720 --> 01:45:39,400
Speaker 1: to reassignate value or remove value all that much. Here's

2146
01:45:39,439 --> 01:45:41,479
Speaker 1: why Penn State's a disaster.

2147
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:41,880
Speaker 2: Now.

2148
01:45:43,240 --> 01:45:46,719
Speaker 1: I can't know for sure how big an impact Oregon

2149
01:45:46,800 --> 01:45:48,840
Speaker 1: had on Penn State, but I think it's a ton.

2150
01:45:49,439 --> 01:45:52,320
Speaker 1: So my point there is Oregon goes and they beat

2151
01:45:52,400 --> 01:45:54,720
Speaker 1: Penn State. Penn State season goes off the rails, Penn

2152
01:45:54,720 --> 01:45:58,479
Speaker 1: State looks terrible, and it devalues the Oregon win over

2153
01:45:58,520 --> 01:46:00,720
Speaker 1: Penn State more and more. The way I look at

2154
01:46:00,720 --> 01:46:05,360
Speaker 1: that is, why should I remove credit from Oregon for

2155
01:46:05,479 --> 01:46:08,360
Speaker 1: something they're responsible for? Because what I think happened is

2156
01:46:08,840 --> 01:46:11,960
Speaker 1: Penn State loses to Oregon, and that's the reason they

2157
01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:14,200
Speaker 1: go to UCLA and lose, and that's the reason they're

2158
01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:16,559
Speaker 1: terribly in It's northwestern and there's no way to prove

2159
01:46:16,600 --> 01:46:20,599
Speaker 1: that for sure. But I'm careful dropping Oregon. I'm all

2160
01:46:20,680 --> 01:46:23,639
Speaker 1: dropping cause they lost a game against Indiana. But I'm

2161
01:46:23,680 --> 01:46:27,240
Speaker 1: also not doing that thing where I'm retroactively removing value

2162
01:46:27,720 --> 01:46:30,040
Speaker 1: from a win that I still think is pretty high caliber.

2163
01:46:30,880 --> 01:46:32,639
Speaker 1: That's what I'm not doing. I don't know how many

2164
01:46:32,840 --> 01:46:36,360
Speaker 1: voters are doing that. Texas Tech is at seven, Bama

2165
01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:42,120
Speaker 1: is at six, Ole, miss A, and m Indiana, Miami

2166
01:46:42,240 --> 01:46:45,840
Speaker 1: and Ohio. That is your top five in descending order.

2167
01:46:46,200 --> 01:46:49,200
Speaker 1: Ohio state number one, as they should be. If you

2168
01:46:49,240 --> 01:46:52,320
Speaker 1: want to go better body of work, probably Miami would

2169
01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:54,080
Speaker 1: be ahead of them. You could probably make a case

2170
01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:57,400
Speaker 1: for Indiana as well. I mean they do have a

2171
01:46:57,439 --> 01:46:59,439
Speaker 1: better win, Yes, they do have a better win. I

2172
01:46:59,479 --> 01:47:01,639
Speaker 1: saw a lot of people thinking Indiana maybe number one.

2173
01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:04,519
Speaker 1: That was never going to happen. But if you wanted

2174
01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:07,439
Speaker 1: to argue it, okay, Indiana's up. That's the highest I

2175
01:47:07,439 --> 01:47:09,360
Speaker 1: think they've ever been ranked, by the way I thought.

2176
01:47:09,360 --> 01:47:11,639
Speaker 1: I heard fourth was the highest they've ever been ranked. Look,

2177
01:47:11,800 --> 01:47:14,080
Speaker 1: I got to give an ap credit. They have started

2178
01:47:14,080 --> 01:47:16,160
Speaker 1: to get their act together. I think in the aggregate

2179
01:47:16,160 --> 01:47:17,880
Speaker 1: they have started to pay way more attention to this

2180
01:47:17,920 --> 01:47:20,360
Speaker 1: stuff because a lot of them had their trees shaken

2181
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:22,320
Speaker 1: earlier in the season and they don't want to be

2182
01:47:22,360 --> 01:47:25,519
Speaker 1: caught not paying attention. And that's not a bad thing.

2183
01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:28,760
Speaker 1: That is a very good thing, as is the fact

2184
01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:30,360
Speaker 1: that you can go over to FanDuel right now.

2185
01:47:30,560 --> 01:47:33,280
Speaker 2: I don't think you can. You can bet on the

2186
01:47:34,160 --> 01:47:34,679
Speaker 2: A people.

2187
01:47:35,080 --> 01:47:37,559
Speaker 1: I don't think we do that quite yet, but I

2188
01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:39,759
Speaker 1: do want to tell you that pretty much anything else

2189
01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:42,960
Speaker 1: that exists under the sporting sun you can bet on now,

2190
01:47:43,280 --> 01:47:45,640
Speaker 1: as you know, or maybe you're new around here and

2191
01:47:45,680 --> 01:47:48,400
Speaker 1: you don't know. When we started the show, we went

2192
01:47:48,439 --> 01:47:52,080
Speaker 1: a long time without a betting partner. We had overtures,

2193
01:47:52,080 --> 01:47:55,519
Speaker 1: but we we just declined. When we met with FanDuel

2194
01:47:55,560 --> 01:47:59,360
Speaker 1: two years ago, we heard the pitch again. And I

2195
01:47:59,560 --> 01:48:02,639
Speaker 1: use fans like I personally have bet for a long time,

2196
01:48:02,720 --> 01:48:05,240
Speaker 1: but I was hesitant to let a betting partner come

2197
01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:07,800
Speaker 1: on the show. Here's why I wanted to do what

2198
01:48:07,840 --> 01:48:12,280
Speaker 1: are called RG reads pretty frequently responsible gaming reads, and

2199
01:48:12,479 --> 01:48:16,280
Speaker 1: most partners said no, FanDuel. Their tune was totally different.

2200
01:48:16,400 --> 01:48:18,040
Speaker 1: That is why they're a partner of ours. That's the

2201
01:48:18,080 --> 01:48:21,160
Speaker 1: only reason I would ever partner with FanDuel. And not

2202
01:48:21,200 --> 01:48:23,720
Speaker 1: only did they embrace it, they actually said, you know

2203
01:48:23,760 --> 01:48:25,519
Speaker 1: what we're working on. We're working on tools that we

2204
01:48:25,560 --> 01:48:29,080
Speaker 1: actually want you to promote. So the responsible gaming part

2205
01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:31,880
Speaker 1: of this is important to me because I have watched

2206
01:48:32,040 --> 01:48:34,880
Speaker 1: the downside of what gambling addiction can do to people,

2207
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:38,200
Speaker 1: and so I have taken it upon myself, since this

2208
01:48:38,280 --> 01:48:40,479
Speaker 1: is my show, to make sure every now and then

2209
01:48:40,960 --> 01:48:44,800
Speaker 1: we weave in reminders to back away if this is

2210
01:48:44,800 --> 01:48:47,200
Speaker 1: getting a little out of control for you. To put

2211
01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:50,240
Speaker 1: another way, if you have any doubt that you can

2212
01:48:50,280 --> 01:48:53,120
Speaker 1: afford or not afford to bet on a game, you

2213
01:48:53,160 --> 01:48:55,840
Speaker 1: can't afford to bet on that game. You cannot be

2214
01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:58,360
Speaker 1: betting money that you can afford to lose on games.

2215
01:48:58,680 --> 01:49:00,479
Speaker 2: Shouldn't do it bit.

2216
01:49:00,360 --> 01:49:03,360
Speaker 1: As dangerous and addictive as anything else that you always

2217
01:49:03,360 --> 01:49:06,080
Speaker 1: get warned about. So on this show occasionally I want

2218
01:49:06,120 --> 01:49:08,519
Speaker 1: to remind you just step away. If you need to

2219
01:49:08,560 --> 01:49:10,840
Speaker 1: step away. You can have a mat game on on

2220
01:49:10,880 --> 01:49:13,040
Speaker 1: a Tuesday night without you having ten dollars on it.

2221
01:49:13,080 --> 01:49:15,840
Speaker 2: That's Okay, it will go on. You will go on.

2222
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:16,639
Speaker 2: It'll be fine.

2223
01:49:16,840 --> 01:49:22,120
Speaker 1: But at FanDuel they have several responsible gaming type tools

2224
01:49:22,120 --> 01:49:23,800
Speaker 1: to help you out. One of them is the know

2225
01:49:23,920 --> 01:49:27,240
Speaker 1: your Play tool, and I would encourage you if you

2226
01:49:27,240 --> 01:49:29,600
Speaker 1: go to FanDuel, find that, find that section, find the

2227
01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:32,879
Speaker 1: know your Play section. There there are tons of tools

2228
01:49:32,920 --> 01:49:38,120
Speaker 1: there that work in conjunction with responsible gaming if you

2229
01:49:38,160 --> 01:49:42,040
Speaker 1: will utilize them. That helps you basically make sure to

2230
01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:44,840
Speaker 1: set your parameters and then remind you when you're close

2231
01:49:44,880 --> 01:49:47,679
Speaker 1: to them or you're exceeding them. And it's a really

2232
01:49:47,680 --> 01:49:49,800
Speaker 1: good fail safe. Again, you got to use them. If

2233
01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:52,160
Speaker 1: you don't use them, they don't work. So I credit

2234
01:49:52,160 --> 01:49:54,679
Speaker 1: FanDuel for doing that. They've been very proactive on that front.

2235
01:49:55,520 --> 01:49:58,840
Speaker 1: And they give us carte blanc. I mean, that's that's

2236
01:49:58,880 --> 01:50:02,519
Speaker 1: what the paper said set FanDuel. So there is no

2237
01:50:02,600 --> 01:50:04,920
Speaker 1: copy they put in front of me. They trust me

2238
01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:07,960
Speaker 1: to disseminate that stuff, and I trust them to be

2239
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:09,720
Speaker 1: true to their word. And sure enough, there it is.

2240
01:50:09,720 --> 01:50:11,320
Speaker 1: You see it on the screen right now, and if

2241
01:50:11,360 --> 01:50:12,760
Speaker 1: you go to FanDuel you'll see a lot of that.

2242
01:50:13,120 --> 01:50:13,479
Speaker 2: Also.

2243
01:50:14,200 --> 01:50:16,519
Speaker 1: I know goodwell, there are people probably watching this show

2244
01:50:17,360 --> 01:50:19,639
Speaker 1: that that may not apply to but maybe it applies

2245
01:50:19,640 --> 01:50:21,639
Speaker 1: to a buddy of yours. Well make sure they hear

2246
01:50:21,720 --> 01:50:23,439

Speaker 1: In the meantime, Roman Noodle Express is won money so

2263
01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:14,720
Speaker 1: far this year's World Okay and We're looking to get

2264
01:51:14,760 --> 01:51:16,719
Speaker 1: better this week. I've got two games that I'm gonna

2265
01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:19,479
Speaker 1: put on the Roma Noodle Express as best bets of

2266
01:51:19,520 --> 01:51:22,599
Speaker 1: this week, and one of them is Syracuse plus eleven

2267
01:51:22,600 --> 01:51:25,760
Speaker 1: and a half. They are playing Pitt Big do down

2268
01:51:25,760 --> 01:51:29,240
Speaker 1: spot for Pitt. I still think there's a little bit

2269
01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:31,240
Speaker 1: of value to be had in Syracuse. Now. You know,

2270
01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:34,160
Speaker 1: I love betting backup quarterbacks. Just because it bit me

2271
01:51:34,520 --> 01:51:37,160
Speaker 1: with Arizona State last night doesn't mean I'm not going

2272
01:51:37,240 --> 01:51:39,439
Speaker 1: right back to the well. We have made a small

2273
01:51:39,479 --> 01:51:42,320
Speaker 1: fortune betting backup quarterbacks in this game, and we'll do

2274
01:51:42,320 --> 01:51:45,639
Speaker 1: it again with Syracuse actually back up versus backup, and

2275
01:51:45,800 --> 01:51:48,320
Speaker 1: we will go with Mississippi State plus nine and a

2276
01:51:48,360 --> 01:51:50,800
Speaker 1: half at Florida.

2277
01:51:50,920 --> 01:51:52,559
Speaker 2: Guys, there are.

2278
01:51:52,439 --> 01:51:54,160
Speaker 1: Too many points being given in that game. That's all

2279
01:51:54,160 --> 01:51:57,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you. One organization is extremely highly motivated

2280
01:51:57,760 --> 01:51:59,160
Speaker 1: and the other one I think may have run out

2281
01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:02,040
Speaker 1: of gas yesterday. And there's a lot of talk around

2282
01:52:02,040 --> 01:52:05,559
Speaker 1: Florida football right now and Mississippi State just to sneak

2283
01:52:05,600 --> 01:52:08,559
Speaker 1: down in there, and I think hang with Florida. So

2284
01:52:08,600 --> 01:52:12,000
Speaker 1: I'll take plus nine and a half all day long. Listen,

2285
01:52:12,920 --> 01:52:15,920
Speaker 1: the under is gonna hit by eight minutes because the

2286
01:52:15,960 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 1: show's over. We're done. We're happy that you joined us.

2287
01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:21,519
Speaker 1: Many of you were along for the ride. I feel

2288
01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:23,880
