In weekend. We appreciate 186 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: everybody dialing in as always, it's the highlight of the 187 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: Sunday recordings that we do, so thank you so much 188 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 3: for playing along. We got to start with Notre Dame 189 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 3: and Clemson. Dam, we got to start with Notre Dame 190 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 3: and Clemson. It was the big game of the evening. 191 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: To lash that digital audio field. Yeah, let's do it. 192 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 3: Forty seven to forty is your final score went to 193 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 3: double overtime. A good football game the whole way through, 194 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 3: one of the best that we've seen so far this year. 195 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 3: Notre Dame led most of the way, if you didn't 196 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 3: see it. At one point, twenty three to ten in 197 00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 3: I think the third quarter, Yeah, I don't know, whatever 198 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 3: it was. At one point, Clemson comes back to tide 199 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 3: at twenty six, and eventually they end up taking the 200 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 3: lead with about three minutes left. Totally predictable that this 201 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: would happen. I was watching with Mama h Thankfully the 202 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 3: pup was asleep and didn't seem to be too agitated 203 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 3: by the sudden loud noises. I was belting out as 204 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 3: like Ben Scaronic would drop a wide open passer. 205 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: But twenty three to ten in the second quarter for the. 206 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 3: Second quarter, thank you, so you know it seems like 207 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 3: Notre Dame gets one final bite at the apple. It 208 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 3: doesn't work out. They turn it over on downs. There's 209 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 3: an odd series where kept their timeouts though, kept their timeouts, 210 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 3: and then Clemson up there. Clemson has a really short 211 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 3: field to work with. They essentially go three and out. 212 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 3: Notre Dame is able to conserve two of those timeouts. 213 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 3: They get the ball back their own nine yard line 214 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 3: and Ian Book leads them on a ninety one yard 215 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 3: scoring drive capped off by a long touchdown pass to 216 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 3: Avery Davis and then eventually they get in the end 217 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 3: zone to tie the ball game up at thirty three 218 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 3: to send it to overtime. So let's talk about this. Obviously, 219 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 3: No Dame ends up winning the game, fans rush the field. 220 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 3: We'll see if they're able to play more games due 221 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 3: to the celebratory super spreader event that was the postgamee. However, 222 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 3: that aside. The big story going into this football game 223 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 3: was obviously that Trevor Lawrence was not going to play 224 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 3: because of COVID protocols. He was there on the sidelines, 225 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 3: he had his mask on, and that meant that we 226 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 3: got to see our boy DJ. 227 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: Take the whole last name Buddy Hujan Galle nailed it done. Yeah, 228 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: he gets in, he gets the start. And the question was, well, 229 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: if Notre Dame wins, is there gonna. 230 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 3: Be an asterisk? 231 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 4: Right? 232 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 3: Because Trevor Lawrence the best player, blah blah blah, he's 233 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 3: not going to play. To be honest with you, Dan, 234 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 3: I'm not sure what Trevor would have given them above 235 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: and beyond what they got out of DJ, because he 236 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 3: was superb in this football game. Four hundred and thirty 237 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 3: nine yards. He missed a couple throws right, but by 238 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 3: and large, he I think was able to shoulder the 239 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 3: burden of that offense particularly well, especially because Notre Dame 240 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 3: seemingly came out there on a mission to shut down 241 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: Travis Etn. Definitely ETN doesn't run. A lot of it 242 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: falls on DJ again, missed a few throws. Not sure 243 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 3: it was all that big of a step down from 244 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence. The key for the Notre Dame defense was 245 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 3: how they controlled that line of scrimmage. They shut down 246 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 3: Travis Etn as longest runt of the day, it was 247 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 3: something like thirteen yards. Otherwise they were just content to 248 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 3: let DJ pick them apart pick them apart, but it 249 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 3: was reminiscent to me a little bit of the old 250 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: Bob Diaco defenses where you bend but you don't break. 251 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 3: And they gave up a few big passes, but really 252 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,599 Speaker 3: nothing too substantial that was going to come back to 253 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 3: bite him in the end. So I thought it was 254 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 3: a really good game plan from Clark Lee. The defense 255 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 3: stepped up to the plate, and you know, it dawned 256 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 3: in me watching the latter half of this game that 257 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 3: if Notre Dame or really anybody is going to beat 258 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 3: one of these top one of these teams that we 259 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 3: view as a top elite caliber squad, like a Clemson 260 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 3: or Ohio State or Alabama, it's always got to be 261 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: something like a forty seven to forty you know, like 262 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 3: you got to get a couple turnovers in the new reality, Yeah, 263 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 3: you got to get a couple turnovers, You got to 264 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: get a couple stops. But if you're hoping for some 265 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: sort of defensive slugfest nine to six Alabama, LSU ain't 266 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 3: walking through that door anytime soon, Like this is this 267 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 3: is sort of where we're at. Notre Dame played the game, 268 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 3: eventually got it to overtime, was able to get the 269 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 3: w We could talk about ian book and the game 270 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 3: plan on offense and whatnot, but any thoughts based on 271 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 3: just that matchup there, the Notre Dame defense against the 272 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 3: Clemson offense. 273 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought, well, first of all, think about your teams. 274 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: If your team is not Clemson or maybe Alabama or 275 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: Ohio State, but if your team has a backup quarterback, 276 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: which I imagine they do, think about what they look 277 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: like as it compares to what dj Uyunghalala looks like 278 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: on the road at night against Notre Dame on network 279 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: television night and day. File that under must be nice, 280 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: Must be nice. Second of all, you said, the Notre 281 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: Dame defense versus the Clemson offense, that's what you're looking for. 282 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 4: Yeah. 283 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, Notre Dame dominated the line of scrimmage really on 284 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball, but specifically on defense they did. 285 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: Second of all, one of the things I really like 286 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: to look for in these big games or with teams 287 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: that are improving or teams that hire a new coordinator 288 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: is how often is it just a right place, right 289 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: time situation. They might not a defense might not have 290 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: NFL caliber players, They might not have the most developed 291 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: edge rusher or the most instinctual safety. But on that 292 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: sort of bobble fumble from Traves etn too, it was 293 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Owusu Karamoa, that's right, who grabbed it right place, 294 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: right time. Give yourself the opportunity to succeed by being 295 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: in the right place, right time. And that's what Notre 296 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: Dame's defense, because it's not You've mentioned it before. It's 297 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: like the secondary is a list of nobody's outside of 298 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton or an unsung hero secondary right place, right time. 299 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: Even with Dju lighting them up, those opportunities for Notre 300 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: Dame came to fruition and that's what they needed. We 301 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: talked about this. It's a good defense at home against 302 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback, and so you are going to have 303 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: spots to take advantage of, can you Notre Dame did? 304 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: Notre Dame absolutely did. They hung around And if we're 305 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: going to transition to the other side of the ball, 306 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: who is nails Lenny. 307 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 3: Dykstra, Lenny Didischer was nails. 308 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, Philadelphia very much in the news. So let's 309 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: go with Lenny Dykstra nails book Ian book downfield, big moments, 310 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: multiple quarters, multiple high high leverage moments. That's the term 311 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: I'm looking for sure. In that game, tying drive the end, 312 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: just absolutely lights out. We used to call him ian chapter, 313 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: at least I did last night against Clemson. He was 314 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: Ian volumes tie. He was a set of books, not 315 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: just a single two total he. 316 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 3: Was He was sensational. This is the best game of 317 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: his college career through for over three hundred yards. 318 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: And I think the fast start is important to mention too, 319 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: Kyron Williams. That's the first offensive play for Notre Dame. 320 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: Notre Dame has not been a fast starting team. They 321 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: came out and punched Clemson in the proverbial nose. Great 322 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: to see if you're a Notre Dame fan. 323 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 3: Obviously, to your point, this is the best game of 324 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 3: books career, undeniable, full stop, and he got better as 325 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 3: the game war on. What was interesting to me is 326 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 3: that Tommy Reese very clearly looked at the game tape 327 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 3: from Clemson Boston College. We talked about it on this show. 328 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: BC was just chucking it up. Man, They were chucking 329 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 3: it up. They actually had a fair amount of success 330 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 3: doing it. Now they weren't able to for four quarters. 331 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 3: That's why they lost. 332 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: But that's the key. 333 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 3: They were able to move the needle a little bit 334 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 3: just taking those vertical threats, and it was clear that 335 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 3: Notre Dame was going to try the same thing. And 336 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 3: because of that vertical threat, because Notre Dame had a 337 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 3: little bit of success doing it mm hm, it opened 338 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 3: up the ground attack for Kien Williams because they had 339 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 3: a respect potentially that over the top play. It opened 340 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 3: up running lanes for Ian Book and it also opened 341 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 3: up some underneath stuff. We saw Michael Maher getting involved, 342 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 3: who you know, want to maybe chief among the baby 343 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 3: gronks in. 344 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: College football Attead they call him baby Gronk. 345 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 6: You know. 346 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: Like So it was just a really sound game plan 347 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 3: from Tommy Reese. I thought he did well. Notre Dame executed. 348 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 3: We did have the fumbel down with the goal line 349 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 3: that you know, almost came back to bite Notre Dame, 350 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 3: but thankfully from their side of things anyway, it did not. 351 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 3: This is a really high level football game. My guess 352 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 3: is that we're going to see a rematch of this 353 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 3: at some point in the future. Notre Dame also has 354 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: a pretty notable trap spot against Boston College this coming week, 355 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 3: which we can discuss on Wednesday show. But this is 356 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 3: a huge moment for the Notre Dame football program and 357 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 3: particularly Brian Kelly. The monkey has been on his back 358 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 3: for a long time, a lot of folks saying he 359 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 3: can't win the big One. Got to do better against 360 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 3: these top tier opponents if you actually want to gain 361 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 3: some real national credibility. And look, it's who knows what 362 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 3: happened las Trevor Lawrence. Who knows what happens they play 363 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 3: with Trevor Lawrence. 364 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: But this was well, we might find out, Ty, It's 365 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 1: likely that we will find out at this point and 366 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: everything holds. What a year to join a conference? Normal year? 367 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 4: Yeah? 368 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: Beat Clemson once, go to the playoff, nice clean clear path. 369 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 1: Uh be Clemson twice? Beat him twice? 370 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I in general, and then we'll move on. 371 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 3: We'll talk about Florida, Georgia. Not to be labor the 372 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 3: Notre Dame Clemson game. 373 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: It's worth belaboring. It was an amazing game. 374 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 3: I expected that if Notre Dame one, it would look 375 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 3: different and that I would come away feeling like maybe 376 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 3: they stole one off the back of a truck. I 377 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 3: do not have that feeling at all. That was a 378 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,479 Speaker 3: game that they outright won. It was beadam is a 379 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 3: really well played effort by the fighting Irish. They straight 380 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 3: up beat them. Like I said, it might be a 381 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: different game. It probably will be if Trevor Lawrence is 382 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 3: out there the next time around, but at least at 383 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 3: time of recording on or does this November eighth, like 384 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 3: I feel, I feel pretty good about where Notre Dame 385 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 3: stands after that one. 386 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: It turns out on the Clemson side, by the way, 387 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: weird that their line play was so thoroughly outclassed because 388 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: that's generally where they've been so strong, especially along the 389 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: defensive line. In getting to the quarterback with just four 390 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: guys like we've seen, you know, those that legendary group 391 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: of four from a couple of years ago. It's a 392 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: different Clemson line situation. No matter how well they recruit, 393 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,719 Speaker 1: they just have not developed. And yes there have been 394 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: injuries and transfers and COVID stuff, all the context always applies, 395 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: but strange to see a very different Clemson defensive line experience. 396 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 3: Staying with big matchups. This was the other bigin on Saturday. 397 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 3: It's the world's largest outdoor cocktail party. It is Florida. 398 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 3: It is Georgia. The Gators win forty four to twenty eight. 399 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 4: Dan. 400 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 3: They were down early, actually, Georgia jumped out to a 401 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 3: really quick fourteen to nothing lead. They scored in their 402 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 3: first play from scrimmage and then their very next drive. 403 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 3: From that point forward, though, I think it's fair to 404 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: say that Florida's offense just straight up overwhelmed the Georgia defense. 405 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 3: Kyle Trask had a full command of that offense through 406 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 3: for four hundred and seventy four yards and four touchdowns. 407 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 3: It's striking to watch what Dan Mullen does because it's 408 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 3: obviously against a really top level, elite caliber defense with 409 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 3: the Georgia Bolt. 410 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: Beat up one. A beat up defense, Yeah. 411 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, and that needs to be said. But 412 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 3: it's if you're watching from home, if you know nothing 413 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 3: else about defense, if you don't care to. I think 414 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: it's just notable that there are so many different people 415 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 3: and so many different things that you need to keep 416 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 3: track of with this Slarda offense. You've got guys coming 417 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 3: out of the backfield, running over the middle, running a 418 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 3: wheel route. You've got guys working the scene, crossing like 419 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 3: the way that he designs his passing attack has to 420 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 3: be so difficult to freaking keep track of, and we 421 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 3: saw it. We saw it throughout the course of the night. 422 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 3: Clearly Kyle Trest knows where to go with the football, 423 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 3: he knows how to make those reads. But the play design, 424 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 3: to me was just really striking watching them go up 425 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 3: against a Georgia team that I think we've been led 426 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: to believe and still do believe to some extent as 427 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 3: a really really freaking good defense. 428 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: Yes, especially to just piggyback, how well they took advantage 429 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: of the running backs and mismatches out of the backfield 430 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: in Florida in that passing game. That was quite impressive. 431 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: And to your point earlier about in twenty twenty, in 432 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, twenty eighteen, a big win over a big 433 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: team is going to involve turnovers and scoring at least 434 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: what thirty five points on offense. I think Georgia doesn't 435 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: have that ability, even against a Florida defense that actually 436 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: was letting receivers behind itself. And it's my old favorite seinfeld. 437 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: Anybody can take the reservation, anybody can get open. You 438 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: got to hit the open guys, and that's that's the 439 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: distinction I know Stetson Bennett left with what a shoulder injury, 440 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: and Ac Sprain and Dwan Mathis came in, but neither 441 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: one of them were able to consistently see the open 442 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: dudes hit the open dudes. And it's I mean, I 443 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 1: guess credit Kirby Smart. He has tried to unearth every 444 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: possible quarterback to come into the Georgia program to improve things. 445 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: And the Jamie Newman opt out JT. Daniels might. I 446 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: don't know what the hell's going on with him, and 447 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, the from Fields thing still seems to haunt 448 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: the program and that decision. But Georgia just they don't 449 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: have the firepower. They don't have the manpower on offense 450 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: to be a top flight team right now. And Florida, 451 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: to their very specific credit, even with Kyle Pitts leaving 452 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,479 Speaker 1: this game injured, it was just next man up. It 453 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: was Kadarius Tony, it was Trevon Grimes, it was Damian Pierce, like, 454 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: they just kept finding dudes. And Kyle Trask right now, 455 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 1: to me, I think he's my heisman front runner. I mean, 456 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: it might not well, just because Justin Fields hasn't played 457 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: the schedule yet. Just the number of games yet that 458 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 1: Kyle Trask right now, even in that losing effort, he 459 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: did not have a down game against Texas A and M, 460 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: and then to perform like he has performed now against 461 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: Georgia and Ole Miss and South whatever. I think I 462 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: am most impressed by Kyle Trask's season resume, just because 463 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 1: of the incomplete nature of obviously Trevor Lawrence and his 464 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: COVID status, and justin Fields being out and Cibo Flemster 465 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: not getting carries against I just wanted to say. 466 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 3: His name, Cibos. 467 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, look so that Yeah. I just I couldn't be 468 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: more impressed with the fact that we came from looking 469 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: at Kyle Trask's arm and saying like, well, he's accurate 470 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: and he completes passes, but they's so soft. And now 471 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: it's still pretty soft, and he keeps completing passes against 472 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: great defenses. So Florida now in the driver's seat in 473 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: the SEC East, and I can't imagine because of that 474 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: defense that Florida is able to beat Alabama and their weaponry. 475 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: But they're closer than I thought they'd be. 476 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 3: They're closer. I agree with you. Then maybe we thought 477 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 3: and Kyle, like I said, Kyle Trask just very clearly 478 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 3: has full commanded this offense, and it's striking to watch 479 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 3: where Florida was at last year, had a good offense, 480 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 3: had room to grow. But to see now them doing 481 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 3: more complex things on the offensive side of the ball 482 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 3: with his level of confidence, it's it's really impressive. And 483 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 3: like you said, his next man up. It doesn't matter 484 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 3: how hard he throws, as long as he gets it 485 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: where it needs to go. There are a lot of 486 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 3: big plays in this game on the Florida side. They 487 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 3: really took advantage of those chunk plays and that was 488 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 3: ultimately what took down Georgia. Here it should be smooth 489 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 3: sailing for the Gators until the SEC Championship. We can't 490 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 3: take anything for granted, especially in a goofy year. And 491 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: maybe we shouldn't sleep on Arkansas. I don't know the 492 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 3: revenge of Felipe Franks, right, but yeah, for sure Arkansas Vandy, 493 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 3: Kentucky Tennessee and LSU the rest of the way. Compared 494 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 3: to what we thought at the start of the year, 495 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 3: that feels a lot more workable now. 496 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 1: So we'll see good character performance by the way going 497 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: down fourteen to nothing like that and just like, no, 498 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: we're cool. We're gonna bring our own monsoon in the 499 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: second quarter, It's all good. 500 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 3: PAC twelve or PAC eight was in action. We had 501 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 3: four games between Oregon and Stanford, USC and ASU, Colorado 502 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 3: and UCLA and Wazoo and Oregon State, Arizona and Utah. 503 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 3: Washington and Cow were both canceled. Dan, where do you 504 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 3: want to start? 505 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: In the PAC twelve USC ASU with that nine am 506 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 1: local kick was USC winning and a losing effort. That's 507 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: my new operative phrase because it just seems to be 508 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: so common this fall. USC really looked disjointed on offense 509 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: for long stretches of this game, and you know, the turnovers, 510 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: the inability to consistently run the ball or throw the ball, 511 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: whatever it was. And then slowly Keaton slow has found 512 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,479 Speaker 1: his rhythm. They're able to run a little bit, they 513 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: get the you know, Drake London's just an absolute dude. 514 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 1: And I always hesitate when there is a guy with 515 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: receiver skills who is the size of a tight end, 516 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: because it can feel like a lot of teams don't 517 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: know exactly how to use a tweeener like that. USC 518 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: has figured out how to use Drake London and he 519 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: had the game winning touchdown. He made plays. They had 520 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 1: that tip touchdown catch against ASU, and to ASU's credit, 521 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: they ran the hell out of the ball, both with 522 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: the running backs and with Jayden Daniels. And they lose 523 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: Frank Darby, their stud number one receiver early and it 524 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: didn't seem to make an enormous difference. It was just 525 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: a mistake filled game offense, defense, special teams. And for 526 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: USC to score what two touchdowns in the final buck 527 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 1: forty of this game, including with the assistance of an 528 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: onside kick, just absolutely dreadful onside kick coverage from ASU. 529 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I saw. 530 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: I can't imagine what the U I saw one postgame 531 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: win expectancy set up like ninety nine point ninety nine 532 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: for ASU. Yeah, it was a it was a dual clunker, 533 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: and so whoever was going to win this game was 534 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: going to win their clunker. I can't believe USC pulled 535 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: that out. I cannot believe down twenty seven to thirteen 536 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: late they were just like, well, we'll see what happens, 537 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 1: and they did it, and. 538 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 3: Dying am unbelievable of the game. Yeah, Keaton Slovis and 539 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 3: some magic brings USC back and like you said we 540 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 3: were interested in this game because of the early kickoff. 541 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,199 Speaker 3: It was the big noon game on Fox, but more 542 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 3: like big nine am on the West Coast. Guys are 543 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 3: getting up at five am, and it definitely seemed like 544 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 3: it took at least a quarter for some of the 545 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 3: kids to wake up here. Yeah, and it was sobby. 546 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 3: This is why you take the points, frankly, in a 547 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 3: game such as this. Let's talk about your Oregon Ducks. 548 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,959 Speaker 3: They win by three touchdowns thirty five to fourteen over 549 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 3: the Stanford Cardinal. Was fairly close at halftime, but Oregon 550 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 3: pulled away in the third quarter. What was your general 551 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,719 Speaker 3: takeaway here, Dan? I know Oregon was what about an 552 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 3: eleven point favorite, Yeah, something like that going into this 553 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,479 Speaker 3: football game, So there were a double digit favorite. They 554 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 3: were expected to win. But it was obviously the first 555 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 3: action we've seen of the Ducks this year. Are they, 556 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 3: in your mind, the top dog, top duck, top whatever 557 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 3: in the Pac twelve this season? 558 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, they are. I mean that It's an incomplete 559 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: statement though, because we haven't seen cal or wash Ington 560 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: or Utah or what USC is going to look like 561 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: a little bit further down the road. But in terms 562 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: of coming out the first week and establishing themselves as that. Yeah, 563 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: the offense with a new quarterback, new line, new coordinator, 564 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: it took some time to warm up, and it certainly 565 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: helps when the opposing offense is without their starting quarterback 566 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: and stud receiver in Davis Mills and Cam Weddington. That 567 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: was announced about an hour before the game, so Stanford 568 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: had trouble, especially through the air. Consistently. They ran the 569 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: ball pretty well. The line is a lot healthier than 570 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: it was for much of last year, but Oregon against 571 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,959 Speaker 1: a team that slows the ball down, slows down their 572 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: drives in Stanford and Oregon didn't generate turnovers and so 573 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: to score thirty five on nine possessions without any turnovers, 574 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: without any short fields, with a new offense which looked 575 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: a good deal more creative. Tyler Schuck certainly made a 576 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: couple of mistakes and a couple of really bad throws 577 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: down the middle of the field, but Oregon looks to 578 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: be throwing the ball downfield a lot more. Tyler Shuck 579 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: seems to be pretty fearless. They're running Tyler Shuck more 580 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: than they ever did. Just and Herbert. The running backs 581 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: played well. They were down a couple of starters on 582 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball, and the guys that stepped 583 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: in played magnificently. DJ Johnson, who was Miami transfer defensive 584 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: end he's now was the starting tight end for Oregon. 585 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: He switched positions and he made some noise. So Oregon 586 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: really just it was it was a crock potting, I guess, 587 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: because they just stepped on the gas on the ground 588 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: largely in the second half. But Oregon in a really 589 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: nice place as the game evolved. They looked a lot 590 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: more comfortable in the offense, and schedule should be fine 591 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: all things considered. Within the conference, Oregon is the favorite 592 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: to repeat if they are going to keep growing like 593 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: they did over the course of this game. 594 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 3: The other two games in the PAC twelve very quickly. 595 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 3: We had Colorado Dan break up. There, buffs break them up. 596 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 3: At one point they're up thirty five seven. You and 597 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 3: I were texting the eyes of moojis to one another, 598 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 3: like what the hell is going on? 599 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: And we do that anyway, But do that anyway? This 600 00:30:58,360 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: time was about this. 601 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, this was one that definitely caught us by surprise. 602 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 3: Ucla gets one before half, then they go on a 603 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 3: bit of a charge very quickly, pulling within one touchdown 604 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 3: about midway through the third quarter, back and forth from 605 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 3: there on out. But ultimately Colorado is able to hold 606 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 3: them off and get a wind in. This is a game, 607 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 3: I think, if memory serves, when we talked about it, 608 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 3: we're like, yeah, we don't really think that highly of Colorado. 609 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 3: Ucla has got some dudes. Maybe we should just lock 610 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 3: them up. We didn't, neither one of us lock them up, 611 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:36,239 Speaker 3: but no, we felt we felt a lot differently when 612 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 3: we did the Wednesday previews show than obviously we do now. 613 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, Ucla made a ton of mistakes, four turnovers early on. 614 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: They go down thirty five seconds thirty five to seven 615 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: in the first half. Colorado sam Noyer a reverse Tanner McAvoy. 616 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: You won't get that reference anywhere else. He goes from 617 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: safety to quarterback instead of the Tanner McAvoy direction at 618 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: Wisconsin and is good. The story is really how Colorado 619 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: is able to run the ball, spread it around a 620 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: little bit. It was I think Brossard was the running 621 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: back who stepped in. I'm verifying this right now. I 622 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: think it's Jaquari Brossard big and yeah, as I mean 623 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: as Ucla goes. I suppose, like, what are you supposed 624 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: to do if you're a UCLA fan, where this is like, well, 625 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: Colorado's winnable. No, it's just it's just it's it's not 626 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: dtr was fine, made plays, wasn't especially prolific down the 627 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: field at quarterback for UCLA. But I mean, once again, 628 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: Ucla defeats UCLA and Colorado's happy to take advantage. And 629 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what the rest of the buff season 630 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: looks like. But maybe maybe we got it wrong. Maybe 631 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: it was Colorado looking at UCLA and saying, well, this 632 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: one's winnable. 633 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 3: And the final game in the Pac twelve we had 634 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 3: Wazoo thirty eight on the road over Oregon State. Yeah, 635 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:53,719 Speaker 3: twenty eight. 636 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: Then this is the by the way, de Laura, Yeah, 637 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: new Era in Wazoo, New aeron Wazoo. I think it 638 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: was McIntosh as the last name of the running back 639 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 1: who trounced Oregon State. Dion McIntosh was so fun to watch. 640 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: Bigger dude runs hard. Jaden DeLaura, true freshman from Hawaii 641 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,959 Speaker 1: came in, does not have the biggest arm. This might 642 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: be one of your new pop gun heroes, but as 643 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: a playmaker was impressive, had poise for a true freshman 644 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: looking forward to like. He definitely seems like a folk 645 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: hero in the making for Wazoo. Well, I don't know why. 646 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: He just he was fun to watch and it's just 647 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: a new era of Wazoo football and Oregon State seem fine. 648 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: I like Jamar Jefferson. I don't think Tristan Jebia gives 649 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: them a hugely high ceiling. Happy to be wrong, but 650 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: as long as Jonathan Smith is there, they're going to 651 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: scheme themselves competitive in this conference. 652 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 3: Speaking of pop gun heroes, let's talk about Indiana thirty 653 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 3: eight Michigan twenty one. Dan, Now, we had I thought 654 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 3: you're going Sean Clifford. Continue, Well, we'll get to Sean Clifford. 655 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 3: We had a lengthy discussion on one of our episod 656 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 3: so last week they all run together. At this point, 657 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 3: I don't even know. I don't even know about who 658 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 3: is the second best team in the Big Ten East. 659 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 3: You were adamant that it was Michigan State. No, I 660 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 3: said it could be adamant. Dan, you said you were 661 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 3: going to tattoo it on your arm. You're very this Yeah, 662 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 3: my Ronnie White tramp stamp that's right, Ricky White. Yeah, 663 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 3: and I was pretty out of it about Indiana. Indiana 664 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 3: wins this one. Thirty eight, twenty one. Michael Penick against 665 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 3: Michigan to be clear, Yeah, against Michigan. Thank you, Yeah, 666 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 3: Michael pen Michigan State. Maybe the best lefty pop gun 667 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 3: hero since Bryant Manese himself. What thirty I don't think good, No, 668 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 3: you don't think so. 669 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: I don't think Penis has a pop gun arm. I 670 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: think I think he's got more than pop No, I 671 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: don't think he's got a cannon. I'll hold it up 672 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: on you Howitzer, pull it up on YouTube. 673 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 3: Fully spin it. But he definitely can't spin. Touch tie 674 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 3: a lot of touch on those throws. Okay, you're being 675 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 3: very kind. But he had himself a game thirty to 676 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 3: fifty three, forty two sort of cruise to victory here, Dan, 677 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 3: like nothing all that dramatic about it. Michigan held to 678 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 3: three of eleven on third downs, had a bunch of penalties, 679 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 3: just twenty one minutes of possession. Son Haskins ran for 680 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 3: what nineteen yards? He led to toughing Like, we've seen enough, Dan, 681 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 3: this is not gonna be a great Michigan football team 682 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 3: this season. Whenever they're trying to build the entire plane 683 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 3: out of Joe Milton, hold On TI has his Michigan 684 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 3: projection when they're trying to build the whole thing out 685 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 3: of Joe Milton, the same way that Kerk Chieraka and 686 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 3: Penn State are trying to build the whole thing out 687 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 3: of Sean Clifford. Apparently, and in neither case is that 688 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 3: going to yield positive results. Nonetheless, here we are with Indiana. Now, 689 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 3: INDI wey had to looking good, looking strong. They don't 690 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 3: necessarily need to be this juggernaut to I think be 691 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 3: far and away the second best team in the Big 692 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 3: Ten East. Not gonna beat Ohio State, They're going to 693 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 3: fight them for maybe a quarter mm hmm, but second 694 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 3: best in the Big Ten East. If you're Tom Allen, 695 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 3: this is something you've been working for for a long time. 696 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 3: To beat a Michigan team, to beat a Penn State 697 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 3: team the same year, that's a hell of a season. 698 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 3: I don't care if it's goofy, I don't care if 699 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 3: there's a pandemic. I don't he know what the circumstances are. 700 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 3: This is not a common thing for Indiana football and 701 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 3: A'll do credit to. 702 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: Them, absolutely, I'll do credit. Indiana's a real team. They 703 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 1: are a good team. They're a real team. I don't 704 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: know what their ceiling is, but to come out and 705 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: beat Michigan and Penn State deeply flawed Michigan Penn State teams, 706 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: who cares. Yeah, a good team beats flawed teams and 707 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 1: takes advantage of those flawed situations. And whether it was 708 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,760 Speaker 1: Michael Pennix, whether it was by the way, Wop Filier 709 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 1: and was it Tie, it was Wopper and Fry, It's 710 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: Fry Fogel. I believe, tough name to say, but yeah, 711 00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 1: Whopper and Fries. I'm the last person to make that, 712 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 1: but I'm proud to be in the group. He was sensational. 713 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: The Michigan defense, I don't know where it went. And 714 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: I know they're beat up. I know that they've lost 715 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: a lot over the years, but they've recruited well. And 716 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 1: the lack of pressure on Michael Pennix. The secondary just 717 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: has always been populated by dudes, and it's just not 718 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: It is just not right now. And I'll do credit 719 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: again to Indiana, And on offense, You're right about the 720 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: Joe Milton thing. And good. Joe milton passes are great. 721 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,800 Speaker 1: Joe Milton's absolute ceiling, like his throws, like I know 722 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: he had a couple of deeper touchdown passes, those like 723 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: seven and a half quarterbacks who can make those passes 724 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: in college football, Like he's his ceiling is sensational. The 725 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:55,240 Speaker 1: problem is his floor is also like everything is holy 726 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: schnitt and in a good or bad way. Because his 727 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: interceptions were ugly, We're absolutely ugly and on him his 728 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 1: faults and absolutely change the complexion of this game. I 729 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: don't know what to think about Michigan beyond. I don't 730 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 1: know if it's run its course. I don't know if 731 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 1: that we're pouring dirt. We're shoveling dirt on this era 732 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,760 Speaker 1: of Michigan football. But it's not heading in a direction 733 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:21,760 Speaker 1: that makes sense. 734 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 3: When are we going to start hearing Harball to the 735 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 3: NFL rumors? Have they started yet? 736 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: Three weeks ago? 737 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 3: Three weeks ago? When are we going to start hearing him? 738 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 3: When's that drumbeat going to go and get a little 739 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,240 Speaker 3: bit louder, because that's where this is headed. 740 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: It's going to get louder when they lose to another 741 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: team that they are vastly more talented than and they 742 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 1: discover that, oh, this interesting name is interested in the Michigan. 743 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 3: I think there is a real risk of making a 744 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 3: move like any kind of drastic coaching change. Oh, they 745 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 3: shouldn't get rid of Jim HARBAUGHDT in this era of 746 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 3: the pandemic. Now, if Harball wants to go else that's 747 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 3: a separate thing. But I know I've read things about like, oh, 748 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 3: maybe they should get rid of Horbaw, maybe they should 749 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,399 Speaker 3: get rid of James Franklin. And I think the risk 750 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,800 Speaker 3: of doing it this year where there is really just 751 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 3: such a slim margin for caring and not caring, given circumstances, 752 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,479 Speaker 3: you know, guys opting out and just circumstances being weird. 753 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 3: Everyone gets another year of eligibility if they want it. Like, 754 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 3: there's just a bunch of competing factors. This is anything 755 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 3: but a normal year, and I just I have a 756 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 3: hard time run. 757 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 1: I still think people are going to take the fall. 758 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: I think assistance coordinators is an opposition. I think they're 759 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: going to take undue falls, probably in some cases do falls, 760 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: but I think that's what we're going to see. 761 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 3: Well, we talked about Indiana. Congratulations to them big win. 762 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 3: Your second team in the Big Tennis was Michigan State. 763 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,479 Speaker 3: They were down thirty five mil at half. 764 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: It happens, It happens at half. 765 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 3: Now, I told you, I warned you in advance that 766 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 3: Vegas was kind of like speaking to us, you know, 767 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 3: and a half was the line here. It didn't feel right. 768 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 3: It felt like too much, especially after what we saw 769 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 3: the previous week from Michigan State. 770 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, who, buddy thirty five. 771 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 3: I didn't know Iowa had it in him. 772 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: I should know better. A letdown spot in Iowa City. 773 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,919 Speaker 1: That is on me, ty, that is Yeah. No matter 774 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: how disappointing Iowa might look during a season, if you're 775 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 1: coming off of a rivalry win, an unexpected rivalry win, 776 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: and you're traveling to Iowa City, mark me down for 777 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: you know, just rolling with the Hawkeyes no matter what. 778 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 3: Forty nine to seven Michigan State loses this game. 779 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 1: This is more of a commentary on the Michigan Wolverines 780 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: probably than anything in the end. And by the way 781 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: Iowa played creatively. They ran out of the shotgun, they 782 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 1: had jet sweep action, they made plays downfield, they did 783 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: a lot of play action. Spencer Petros was fine. He 784 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 1: was above average at times. Iowa was creative, and yes 785 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 1: it's Michigan State had another deeply flawed Big Ten team. 786 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: But this is what decent teams do. 787 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 3: Finally, speaking of decent teams, I don't know if we 788 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 3: have one in this matchup between Maryland and Penn State, 789 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 3: but I'm more likely to say it's Maryland and Penn State. 790 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 3: Dan oh Boy thirty five to seven after three quarters 791 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 3: in favor of the Terrapins. Should we do we jinx 792 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 3: Kirk shiako with this? 793 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 6: Kirk? 794 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 3: Should we just retire the sound and see if we 795 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 3: could pawn off that domain to his family. 796 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have to take a break. We're 797 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to take a sharraka shabbatical. I'm very dumb. 798 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 3: I cannot believe that the game plan here was to 799 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 3: have Sean Clifford throw the ball fifty seven times. 800 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 1: I can't imagine. 801 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,240 Speaker 3: There is no way they came into this game thinking, 802 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 3: you know we're gonna do We're gonna we're gonna surprise him. 803 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 3: Why don't we throw at fifty seven times? Clifford not 804 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 3: the best approach. Clearly that was not the game plan. 805 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 3: Maybe Maryland's the second best team in the East. I 806 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 3: don't know, but Talia tungua Iloa looked pretty good in 807 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,719 Speaker 3: this game. The consecutive games now where he looked really 808 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:19,280 Speaker 3: strong two eighty two and three touchdowns. Again, a veritable 809 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 3: tire fire here in the Big Ten East. I think 810 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 3: it is probably Indiana at this point. I don't know 811 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 3: who's next. 812 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: Frankly, I enjoyed the payoff of Mike Loxley knows the 813 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 1: DMV when he pulled for Kim Jarrett, the five star receiver, 814 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: not a huge dude, kind of slight and pulled him 815 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: to Maryland over major major programs across the country. And 816 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: Maryland's game plan against Penn State was we should get 817 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: it to this fast, unstoppable dude, maybe in space. And 818 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: they got it to Kim Jarrett and he was unketchable 819 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: and was fantastic. Oz was as was Dante DIMIs and 820 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: Maryland has had recent good receiving duos. But now it 821 00:42:55,760 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: appears Talia tonga Iloa is not a converted linebacker trying 822 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: to throw to them, or Tyrol peg Rum or Casimo 823 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 1: any of these guys who would flash now t Lea 824 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: Tanngo Vailoa. Maybe this early part of the season is 825 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:14,320 Speaker 1: the flash, but it's ongoing and so he's been impressive. 826 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: He finds the open dudes he has. He throws with confidence, 827 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: especially after that ugly, ugly lost Northwestern to open up 828 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 1: the season. Good year to be interesting in the Big 829 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: Ten because not a ton of teams are fear that turtle. 830 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 3: Elsewhere in the Big Ten. To round things out, we 831 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 3: had Ohio State really big over Rutgers. They're up thirty 832 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 3: five to three and a half. We had Minnesota forty 833 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 3: one to fourteen over Illinois. And we had Northwestern, your 834 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 3: Northwestern Wildcats, Dan unduh beat it twenty one to thirteen. Yeah, 835 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 3: over Nebraska. Any thoughts there. 836 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,360 Speaker 1: Northwestern looks like the Northwestern of old, which is a 837 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 1: good thing, Ben, But don't break, you know, smother Nebraska 838 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 1: a little bit and on offense, do just enough, take 839 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 1: some chances occasionally, which Northwestern was able to do. And 840 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: Peyton rams Peyton Ramsey wasn't amazing, but he was fine 841 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: and fine as compared to what Northwestern looked like at 842 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: quarterback last year. Is light years is light years, a time, 843 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 1: a distance thing, whatever, it is light years in the 844 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: correct direction. 845 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 3: It's the distance that light travels in one year. 846 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: Okay, I think it applies if there's an astrophysics astrophysicists 847 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: astrophysicist at Northwestern who wants to correct me. That's cool. 848 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,800 Speaker 3: Moving on over to the big twelve. 849 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do it. Okay. 850 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State twenty k State eighteen. 851 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: Do you have a drive chart you'd like to read for? 852 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 4: This? Is this? 853 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 6: I can? 854 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 1: I can pull it up. Do you want me to? 855 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: I think you should, because a talk about it as 856 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 1: I pull it up. 857 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 3: This was just an ugly offensive game. There are a 858 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 3: million punts. They're playing for field position. Oklahoma State without 859 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 3: Tyland Wallace and to some extent without Chewba Hubbard. He 860 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 3: was slowed down a bit by an injury. The Pokes 861 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:16,720 Speaker 3: trailed twelve nothing at half. Took them until the waning 862 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,799 Speaker 3: seconds of the third quarter to kick a field goal 863 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:23,240 Speaker 3: to go up on top thirteen to twelve. They eventually 864 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 3: tack on a touchdown midway through the fourth to get 865 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 3: it to twenty to twelve. But case State scores a 866 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 3: late touchdown, they go for two to tie it up. 867 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 3: They do not convert. That's how you get a weird 868 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 3: twenty to eighteen final score. But the takeaway from me here, 869 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 3: Dan Is, I have spent what is it now, November. 870 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 3: I've spent three to four months talking up Spencer Sanders, 871 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 3: talking up on this what this offense can do if 872 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 3: they've got the three headed monster available of Spencer Sanders, 873 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 3: Tiland Wallace, and Chewba Hubbard. Now that didn't really, that 874 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 3: wasn't a thing in this game, right, Like some of 875 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 3: those guys were out. Spencer Sanders threw for one hundred yards. 876 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 3: One hundred yards. 877 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:09,439 Speaker 4: Yep. 878 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:14,800 Speaker 1: Apparently it is on me. Apparently it is on me. 879 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 4: M hm. 880 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 3: I'm not the only one, but I put a little 881 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 3: bit too much faith in this thing. Oklahoma State's still 882 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,280 Speaker 3: going to be very good. They've got a solid defense 883 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 3: that's going to take them places in the Big Twelve. 884 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,360 Speaker 3: Whether or not they win the conference I think depends 885 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 3: somewhat on can they get more out of that offense. 886 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 3: But that aside, I came away from this game wholeheartedly 887 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 3: unimpressed by Oklahoma State. And that is not meant to 888 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 3: take anything away from k State. Because this is the 889 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 3: game that Case State wanted to play against Oklahoma State. 890 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 3: They wanted to dirty it up, they wanted it to 891 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 3: be a battle of field position and time of possession 892 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 3: and see if they can get a break to go 893 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 3: their way. And they led for a good chunk of 894 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 3: this game. This is exactly the kind of game they 895 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 3: needed to play in order to win this football game, 896 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 3: knowing their own deficiencies. But m hm, it's you know, 897 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,439 Speaker 3: correct me if I'm wrong Oklahoma State people who listen 898 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 3: to this show. I was wholeheartedly unimpressed by what we 899 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 3: saw out there yesterday because not only was Oklahoma State 900 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 3: my lock of the like your lock, we both felt 901 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 3: pretty confident about them in this game. I'm over to 902 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 3: that part of it. I just I constantly want to 903 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,399 Speaker 3: see more from this team, and we've just only seen 904 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 3: it in a few select spots so far this season. 905 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, when you're clunkers, absolutely win your clunkers, 906 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: because case State probably isn't scoring twenty seven points on 907 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 1: offense as it's led by Will Howard at least right now, 908 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 1: as green as he is. 909 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 3: But the thing about the clunkers, though, yes, everybody has them, 910 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,760 Speaker 3: everybody has them. They're inevitable, but you reach a certain 911 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 3: point where it feels like you're sort of creating your 912 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 3: own clunkers. Right you're shooting yourself in the foot to 913 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 3: some extent, and you're putting it. You're making it much 914 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,320 Speaker 3: harder for yourself to move forward. 915 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,760 Speaker 1: And we are in my life times. 916 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, that that is where Oklahoma State's at at 917 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 3: this point. It's damn frustrated. 918 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:11,919 Speaker 4: Yeah. 919 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,319 Speaker 1: No, They're probably going to end up wasting a very 920 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 1: strong defense and you hate to see it. I think 921 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 1: bedlam is Bedlam next week or is there a bye 922 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 1: week before? I think there's a by way before bedlam, 923 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: and that's going to go a long way as to 924 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,479 Speaker 1: determine the top of the Big Twelve because with Iowa 925 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:33,719 Speaker 1: State coming back and winning, if Oklahoma State goes down 926 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 1: to Oklahoma, yeah, Iowa State with their tiebreaker over the 927 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 1: Sooners is in like real clean control of the conference 928 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 1: once again because they don't have the breaker against Oklahoma State. 929 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: So all sorts of implications. So I suppose good for 930 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State for pushing it forward another week. But you're 931 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,359 Speaker 1: right that the expectation of that offense based on those 932 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 1: glimpses of Spencer Sanders, who had a flawed first year 933 00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:00,440 Speaker 1: as a starting quarterback. I don't think we're un reasonable 934 00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 1: given what they return, which you mentioned, but it does 935 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: also feel like the yep I had a birdie on 936 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 1: this par three because I put it eight feet from 937 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: the pin. I should be doing this all the time, 938 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 1: and you just don't. Just don't. The expectation is a 939 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 1: little bit too high considering last year's inconsistency and this 940 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:27,359 Speaker 1: year's inconsistency injuries context. All of that, of course included all. 941 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 3: Right, you know what, save the drive chart. We've got 942 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:31,920 Speaker 3: another one here that we can do it for. 943 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm ready with the Divorzac and I have an 944 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:39,359 Speaker 1: iPhone twelve now, so great. Okay, the audio sound coming 945 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: out is going to be robust. We've got another one 946 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 1: here that we can that we can do this one with. 947 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,359 Speaker 1: But it's coming up in a little bit, Okay. 948 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 3: Elsewhere in the Big twelve, we had Texas good showing 949 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:56,919 Speaker 3: by their defense seventeen thirteen over West Virginia. A lot 950 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,879 Speaker 3: to like with what we've seen from the defense over 951 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 3: the last two weeks. The defense, now, because that was 952 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,479 Speaker 3: at least in the early going, a real open question 953 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 3: for Texas. Right they're bringing Chris Ash, they got to 954 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 3: get better at tackling. Didn't look like they had gotten 955 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 3: better at tackling for a while, but this was a 956 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 3: good showing by the defense. If you take anything away 957 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 3: from this win over West Virginia seventeen thirteen is a 958 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,280 Speaker 3: close game anyway you slice it, but the defense definitely 959 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 3: looked better the last two weeks. And Jean Robinson, who 960 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 3: I think after all of this hand ringing over, what 961 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 3: is the Texas rushing attack going to look like? 962 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 5: Now? 963 00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:36,480 Speaker 4: Like? 964 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 3: Who who's the guy is a keyante ingram? Who can 965 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:43,839 Speaker 3: we trust? Maybe it's Bejon Robinson. He had a really 966 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,360 Speaker 3: good game here. Twelve carries one hundred and thirteen yards. 967 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 3: I think if he's more of a focal point. If 968 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 3: we take anything away from this game, that would be 969 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 3: really good output for the Longhorns. 970 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 1: Had the really impressive longer run, had the great sort 971 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 1: of spin and stiff arm. I don't know if you 972 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: saw that down the left side. Unfortunately for anybody watching 973 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,840 Speaker 1: this game, it was a game decided like four yards 974 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 1: at a time. Otherwise, uh. Sam Ellinger made a couple 975 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: of plays, but he has his own accuracy issues. Jared 976 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 1: Dagy made plays, but it was a lot of nickel 977 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: and diming stuff, and Texas wisely said we're just not 978 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: going to let West Virginia beat us on the ground. 979 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 1: Jareddiggy can if Jared Dagy can beat us, you know, 980 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 1: hats off to Jared Dggy and he was not able 981 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: to as close as it was. And I think the 982 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 1: focus should be on Texas's defense, how well they were 983 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 1: able to get to him, how well they performed it. 984 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: It was a thorough performance aside from Texas with the 985 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,839 Speaker 1: ball without Bjohn Robinson. Who in Texas without Keanta Ingram 986 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 1: and they're still able to roll on the ground. It 987 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 1: was sort of down game West Virginia coming off of 988 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: their impressive win against Kansas State, Texas coming off of 989 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,840 Speaker 1: that emotional win over Oklahoma State. So it was bound 990 00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: to be a little bit lackluster and dusty. But I 991 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,439 Speaker 1: suppose good for Texas. I don't feel I don't feel 992 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,399 Speaker 1: better about either one of these teams in any sort 993 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:07,880 Speaker 1: of meaningful way. But you know, except for Texas on 994 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 1: defense now becomes a little bit more interesting in that 995 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,760 Speaker 1: step forward the other action. 996 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 3: In the Big twelve, we had Iowa State thirty eight, 997 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 3: Baylor thirty one. There were six turnovers in this game, 998 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 3: four by Iowa State. 999 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, Iowa State, in a losing effort, wins this game. 1000 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:26,279 Speaker 3: Preece solid one, very good again, won thirty three two touchdowns. 1001 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 3: Brock Purty not his best effort, but they win the 1002 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 3: game thirty eight thirty one. Oklahoma big over Kansas sixty 1003 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:39,839 Speaker 3: two to nine, and TCU thirty four to eighteen over 1004 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 3: Texas Tech ten. Any thoughts on those three. 1005 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 1: Strange strange TCU Texas Tech game. Max Duggan couldn't throw, 1006 00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 1: but he could run. Really ugly first half for Iowa State, 1007 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 1: but good for good for Baylor, I suppose for taking 1008 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 1: advantage early, but the Baylor offense is still pretty fatally 1009 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,840 Speaker 1: flawed and Iowa State able to pull it out in 1010 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: the end. Did you mention anything else? Did you say 1011 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:03,720 Speaker 1: Oklahoma Kansas or was that earlier? 1012 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 4: No? 1013 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 3: I said sixty two to nine, Oklahoma over Kansas and 1014 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 3: TCU thirty four to thirty four to eighteen. Excuse me 1015 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 3: over Texas Tech. 1016 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:12,359 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1017 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: I don't have too many thoughts. Spencer Ratler left this 1018 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 1: game right at a certain point. I don't know what 1019 00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: his health status is. I think he's okay. I think 1020 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 1: I would have heard otherwise, But once again it was 1021 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's Kansas, but good for Oklahoma for keeping 1022 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 1: the momentum on the ground going because ultimately that's going 1023 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,439 Speaker 1: to decide their ceiling this year and beyond. I still 1024 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: think all right, And moving on to the acc acc 1025 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:42,879 Speaker 1: had a day. Liberty thirty eight Virginia Tech thirty five. 1026 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:47,720 Speaker 1: You see the end of this game, what a dagger. 1027 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 3: So if you didn't watch it, the game's tied thirty 1028 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:56,479 Speaker 3: five thirty five, Liberty is lined up for a game 1029 00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:00,399 Speaker 3: winning fifty one yard field goal. What do you do, Dan, 1030 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 3: you're justin Fuentev or any coach, what do you do? 1031 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:08,000 Speaker 3: Opponent lining up? Big kick on the way. You've got 1032 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 3: a timeout to burn? 1033 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 4: What do you do? 1034 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:10,200 Speaker 3: You burn the timeout? 1035 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 1: I'm not big on icing now. 1036 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:15,359 Speaker 3: Some are, some aren't. Some like to do it early, 1037 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 3: some like to do it late. 1038 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:17,880 Speaker 4: I don't know. Let it. 1039 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,040 Speaker 1: I think it equally lets them gather themselves and calm themselves. 1040 00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 1: The kickers Virginia Tech decides they're going to do the 1041 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 1: late timeout. I'm really try and get get in the 1042 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 1: kid's head. 1043 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,839 Speaker 3: They block the kick. They do indeed block the kick, 1044 00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 3: seemingly unaware of the fact that there was a timeout 1045 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 3: that's been called play the game, Block the kick, run 1046 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,360 Speaker 3: it back for an apparent game winning touchdown, Everyone's going crazy, 1047 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,439 Speaker 3: only to find out that the timeout had been called 1048 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 3: prior to the snap. So naturally, naturally, Liberty gets another 1049 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 3: bite at the apple. They drill the kick one second left. 1050 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,879 Speaker 3: They end up winning the game thirty eight. The only 1051 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 3: other interesting anecdote here is that both quarterbacks finished with 1052 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 3: exactly two hundred and seventeen passing yards and three touchdowns. 1053 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 3: But you know, Liberty was ranked going into this game. 1054 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 3: They were ranked undefeated. Yeah, they were ranked team. I 1055 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 3: think we both took points here. I don't know if 1056 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:22,359 Speaker 3: either of us felt particularly strongly about Virginia Tech, but wow, 1057 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:24,400 Speaker 3: what a way to lose, huh. 1058 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 1: Not idea, Well, they lost in more ways than just 1059 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,840 Speaker 1: that single play. If what was the spread was double 1060 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: digits ish something like that for Virginia Tech as a favorite, 1061 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 1: I'll go back and check to give up what they 1062 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:41,720 Speaker 1: gave up, specifically to Malik Willis, and they lose Khalil 1063 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 1: Herbert I believe, on the opening kickoff, so he didn't 1064 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:47,399 Speaker 1: play essentially in this game. Virginia Tech was still able 1065 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:49,760 Speaker 1: to run the ball well, it just albeit with Hendon 1066 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: Hooker just not a running back really contributing to this 1067 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 1: game in a meaningful way. 1068 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,240 Speaker 3: Fifteen and a half, by the way, was the one. 1069 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: Fifteen and a half. Okay, so I believe Liberty covered. Yes, 1070 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: Liberty covered. Virginia Tech has a ways to go on defense. 1071 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech still, and it's very strange to say this, 1072 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: but this is a new era of Hoky football. They 1073 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: did everything that they should have done essentially. I mean, 1074 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,480 Speaker 1: there were mistakes made on offense, but you score thirty five, 1075 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: you should have a decent chance of winning a game 1076 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 1: against Liberty when you have that sort of talent advantage 1077 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,960 Speaker 1: and you have Hendon Hooker, who is you know, I 1078 00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 1: think largely a very very good quarterback, both in the 1079 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 1: conference and nationally. I still I am a big believer 1080 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 1: in him. That defense needs it needs dudes, and needs 1081 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 1: probably it needs to get like twenty five to forty 1082 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 1: percent better for Virginia Tech to be truly dangerous against 1083 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:48,680 Speaker 1: anybody elsewhere in the ACC. 1084 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:54,799 Speaker 3: Miami forty four, NC State forty one, Dan Wow, back 1085 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 3: and forth game. Miami was down ten early in the 1086 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:02,879 Speaker 3: fourth quarter. They score thirteen unanswered to win this one 1087 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 3: late on a fifty four yard strike to Mike Hartley 1088 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 3: five touchdown passes four hundred and thirty passing yards. 1089 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: He's so good, Derek Derek King. 1090 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:18,919 Speaker 3: He also led the team with one hundred and five 1091 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 3: rushing yards. Not a great defensive effort for the Knes. 1092 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,680 Speaker 3: That was supposed to be their bread and butter. Not 1093 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 3: a great show. 1094 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 1: Those ed rushers are good, though, and Jalen Phillips had 1095 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 1: great days. 1096 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 6: Very good. 1097 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 1: They're very good. 1098 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 3: But the defense did not necessarily show up here, especially 1099 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 3: against a backup quarterback since Devin Leary's been hurt and 1100 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 3: Deeric aale maam. De Eric King gets a job done. 1101 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 3: This is why they brought him over. He is a 1102 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,160 Speaker 3: unique talent who can do a lot in this game, 1103 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 3: did and he's single handedly what propelled Miami to victory here. 1104 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 3: I really hope that the microphone just picked up my 1105 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 3: stomach growling. I don't know if it was if it 1106 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 3: was timed with Miami n C State right there, but 1107 00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:04,800 Speaker 3: I just got a you're hungry for more of that 1108 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 3: Miami defense. 1109 00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 1: Derek King dragged Miami across the finish line, and it's 1110 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,360 Speaker 1: actually really refreshing to see because one of the things 1111 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: we talked about earlier in the year with the Caynes 1112 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 1: is is there a receiver? 1113 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 4: Is there? 1114 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 1: Like a guy? 1115 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 3: Is there? 1116 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 1: A dude from Miami? And Mike Hartley has sort of 1117 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:23,000 Speaker 1: really shown up for the Knes, So that's a nice revelation. Also, Miami, though, 1118 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: they were able to run the ball really impressively early on, 1119 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:29,919 Speaker 1: and that is vanished for the Canes. So I don't 1120 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 1: know who is left on Miami schedule. There's six and one. 1121 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 1: They had the ugly loss against Clemson where they were 1122 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 1: thoroughly out class but it's a flawed Virginia Tech team, 1123 00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 1: a definitely flawed Georgia Tech team, an interesting Wake team, 1124 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 1: but not a crazy good Wake team in North Carolina, 1125 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: So with a playmaker like Derek King, they're going to 1126 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 1: be in basically any game they play short of Clemson 1127 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 1: now in the ACC. So they could go four and oh, 1128 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,440 Speaker 1: they could go two and two, they go three and one. 1129 00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 1: Essentially everything is on the table with Deeric King in 1130 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 1: a good way and with most of the rest of 1131 00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,120 Speaker 1: Miami in a not so good way. 1132 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:11,400 Speaker 3: North Carolina fifty six Duke twenty four. They led forty 1133 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 3: two to ten at half. Another big game on the 1134 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,000 Speaker 3: ground for Javonte Hawkins. He had one to fifty one 1135 00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 3: and three touchdowns. Michael Carter another name who we've discussed 1136 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 3: on the podcast eighty five yards and a touchdown. North 1137 00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 3: Carolina is gearing up for a game end of the 1138 00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 3: month against Notre Dame. So Notre Dame's got Boston College. 1139 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 3: After Boston College, their next game would be against North Carolina. 1140 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 3: That will be a pivotal matchup for both of those schools. 1141 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 3: No doubt that is going to be a difficult game 1142 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 3: for Notre Dame. I would agree. I would write that 1143 00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:53,280 Speaker 3: to I would put that in a time capsule and 1144 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 3: dig it up like ten years from now. That's how 1145 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 3: confident I am because North Carolina is very dynamic on offense, 1146 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,080 Speaker 3: defense has improved, albeit maybe not as much as it 1147 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 3: needs to, and you know they will be fired up 1148 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 3: to play against Notre Dame, who at that point, barring 1149 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 3: any kind of catastrophe against Boston College, should still be 1150 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:16,000 Speaker 3: undefeated and look a top the ACC. 1151 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 1: Here's my question to you. So we're in the middle 1152 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: of year two of the Mac Brown era at at 1153 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 1: North Carolina. What's the signature win. Is it losing to Clemson? 1154 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:32,000 Speaker 1: Is it beating Miami last year? 1155 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 4: Like? 1156 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,959 Speaker 1: What is the actual signature win? For North Carolina because 1157 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:39,080 Speaker 1: I feel like he has raised their floor significantly, but 1158 01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 1: their performance when eyes are actually on them has typically disappointed. 1159 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:51,480 Speaker 3: The signature game is probably the close call against Clemson, and. 1160 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's my issue in just North Carolina belief 1161 01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:00,400 Speaker 1: right now? Right, Well, the win, the win, my four 1162 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:03,520 Speaker 1: quarters of impressive play against a pretty good team. 1163 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 3: I would reframe that conversation and I would say the 1164 01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 3: real win is finding Sam Howell. That's the win. Win 1165 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 3: stealing Sam Howell, Yeah, stealing Sam Howe. Right, The win 1166 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 3: is getting Sam Howe to a level where he constantly 1167 01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:19,920 Speaker 3: is going to have you in some of these games. 1168 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:25,000 Speaker 3: And you know they need to build depth on defense 1169 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 3: is what they need to do. I think they're doing 1170 01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:27,960 Speaker 3: a good job of it. It's going to take a 1171 01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 3: little bit to get there, but as we often see 1172 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 3: with a lot of these schools, it's it's not always 1173 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 3: something that translates to wins right away. You do look 1174 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 3: for that fight though, as long as they're playing hard. 1175 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:43,920 Speaker 3: I think that that tells you a lot about buy in. 1176 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 3: That tells you a lot about where the program's at internally. 1177 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:48,840 Speaker 3: So I feel good about it, even if we haven't 1178 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 3: necessarily gotten that that signature moment. 1179 01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 1: Yet that's Friday night of Thanksgiving week, Friday. I don't 1180 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:57,120 Speaker 1: know if it's a night or day. I don't know 1181 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: if it's been announced against Notre Dame right the twenty seventh, 1182 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 1: the twenty seventh, and then the following week against Miami 1183 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 1: on the road. I'm not like, I don't think it's 1184 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:08,720 Speaker 1: going to change my opinion in North Carolina if they 1185 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,600 Speaker 1: lose close to Notre Dame because that sort of seems 1186 01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 1: on brand. Miami on the road is gonna be tough, 1187 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 1: but that is the surefire sign of progress. Miami is 1188 01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 1: a beatable team, even in Miami because it's not all 1189 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 1: that difficult because twenty twenty to win on the road, 1190 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 1: So North Carolina has to beat Miami as proof of 1191 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 1: concept of we are flirting with the upper tier of 1192 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 1: the ACC. Otherwise, I think they're still kind of mired 1193 01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:45,080 Speaker 1: in the fancy June pick but not actual October proof 1194 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 1: kind of team. I want to see more when with 1195 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 1: eyes on the heels, I want to see more. 1196 01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 3: We had Louisville, Virginia postponed Loville. You know, we had 1197 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 3: pit a big over Florida State. Florida State actually let 1198 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 3: it half and then pit out scored him thirty one 1199 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 3: to three. Ran the ball, tie breaking news hit ran 1200 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 3: the ball. We also saw some Chubb a party in 1201 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 3: this game for Florida State. Wasn't yeah, maybe the best 1202 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 3: version of Chubb a party, but we did get to 1203 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 3: see some action for him. And if we want to 1204 01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 3: load up the divorjack, we did have Boston College. Let 1205 01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:30,080 Speaker 3: me get you sarahcuse thirteen. This game was as bad, 1206 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,840 Speaker 3: if not worse offensively. 1207 01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 2: Punt, punt, punt, field goal, field goal, missed field goal, punt, punt, punt, touchdown, 1208 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:44,280 Speaker 2: end of half, missed field goal, field goal, field goal, punt, punt, interception, punt, fumble, 1209 01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 2: field goal, and pay touch down. 1210 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 3: Sixteen to thirteen? 1211 01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 1: Did that sound noticeably better the divorjak from my speaker 1212 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:57,720 Speaker 1: from the iPhone twelve. 1213 01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 3: It always breaks up for me on this and when 1214 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 3: I hear it, I can hear it after the fact 1215 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 3: usually pretty well just not now, same for me with 1216 01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 3: some of the sounds you play. Yeah, all right, all right, 1217 01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 3: and let's close it out with the SEC. We only 1218 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:14,240 Speaker 3: had three games to discuss. 1219 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 1: By the way, I am not closing out with the 1220 01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:18,920 Speaker 1: SEC because I got a lot of group of five thoughts. Continue, Well, 1221 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:19,520 Speaker 1: I have a group of. 1222 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 3: Five stuff here as well, and we'll get to that. 1223 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:21,360 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1224 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 3: Arkansas twenty four, Tennessee thirteen. The story of two halves. Really, 1225 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 3: Tennessee led thirteen nil in the first half. The Hog 1226 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:33,160 Speaker 3: score twenty four unanswered in the second half to win 1227 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 3: this one, twenty four to thirteen. Look, they're now three 1228 01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 3: and three. They're on the road next week at Florida. 1229 01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 3: I don't know if we can steer into the whole 1230 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 3: Felipe Fox revenge the week Florida coming off that Georgia wins. 1231 01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,880 Speaker 3: Maybe there is a letdown spot there. But this is 1232 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,880 Speaker 3: a game where Arkansas was favored I think by a 1233 01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 3: point and a half something like that. 1234 01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:57,800 Speaker 1: Is that where I ended up? Okay? 1235 01:04:58,120 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, somewhere around there at least were coded that's where 1236 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,800 Speaker 3: it was. Okay, So I guess it's not surprising that 1237 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 3: Arkansas won. But this is beyond the point of just 1238 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:11,000 Speaker 3: being a fluke, right, Like this is this is Sam 1239 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 3: Pittman knowing how to get the most out of his talent. 1240 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,960 Speaker 3: This is Felipe Franks actually having very quietly a pretty 1241 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 3: good season. Good and then yeah, if you're an Arkansas fan, 1242 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:25,360 Speaker 3: I think this is your source of optimism now moving 1243 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:28,240 Speaker 3: forward like this is we finally got a guy who 1244 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,960 Speaker 3: is getting players to buy in Arkansas's I you know, 1245 01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:35,000 Speaker 3: look at the rest of the schedule, it's it's tough 1246 01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 3: the rest of the way, probably at least one, maybe 1247 01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 3: two wins if you're lucky. But in any case, to 1248 01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 3: be talking about a four or five win potentially campaign 1249 01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 3: in year one and a goof of year under Sam Pittman, 1250 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,880 Speaker 3: that is such a quantum leap forward given where this 1251 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 3: program has been the last couple of seasons, that you 1252 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 3: got to be elated. 1253 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 1: You have to be elated, yes, especially because they should 1254 01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 1: have a There should be four and two with the 1255 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:05,920 Speaker 1: Auburn game ending, so they should be having even better record. 1256 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:10,400 Speaker 1: The question to me, though, is what's waiting behind Felipe Franks. 1257 01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:13,520 Speaker 1: I don't know the hog's depth chart at quarterback now, 1258 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:15,880 Speaker 1: but you got to be able to develop your own 1259 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,800 Speaker 1: dude there because Felipe Franks is essentially a finished product 1260 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 1: that was able to step in and Traylon Burks has 1261 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 1: been fantastic. There's there have been all sorts of pieces 1262 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball that the Arkansas coaching 1263 01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 1: staff has really gotten the most out of But this 1264 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:30,919 Speaker 1: is not Sam Pittman's squad right now, And so that's 1265 01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:33,400 Speaker 1: what I'm curious about, because how can they build on 1266 01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 1: this suddenly competitive Hog squad. Because against LSU's defense and Miszoo, 1267 01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:42,840 Speaker 1: both two teams that have very clear flaws with guys 1268 01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:46,080 Speaker 1: out and whatever, those are winnable games for Arkansas. I've 1269 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,439 Speaker 1: already planted my flag as to saying huge trap spot 1270 01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:52,760 Speaker 1: against Alabama ahead of the SEC Championship game. But I'm 1271 01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 1: not that confident in that win. But LSU and Miszoo 1272 01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:01,520 Speaker 1: suddenly very approachable, tie, very civil teams this year for 1273 01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 1: the Hogs. 1274 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:02,600 Speaker 5: I like it. 1275 01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, And by the way, should we mentioned Jeric 1276 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 1: Garantana was hurt. He and Tennessee really struggled at quarterback. 1277 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 1: He took a shot in this game that took him 1278 01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 1: out of the game and Tennessee. I it shouldn't be 1279 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:19,560 Speaker 1: this difficult at this point, right I know? It shouldn't know. 1280 01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a Jim Cheney thing. The 1281 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 1: play third downs have been awful for the Balls all 1282 01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 1: season long. Everything just seems difficult and it shouldn't it 1283 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 1: shouldn't at this point be all that hard to consistently 1284 01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:38,520 Speaker 1: move the ball against a very very much changing Arkansas 1285 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:44,320 Speaker 1: team improving, improving, that's sure, Tennessee. It's it's a disappointment, 1286 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 1: all things considered, twenty twenty, where the Valls haven't at 1287 01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:50,040 Speaker 1: least gotten to as a team. 1288 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,480 Speaker 3: Final two games here to talk about very quickly in 1289 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 3: the sec before we rattle off the group of five action. 1290 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:02,760 Speaker 3: Texas A and M destroys South Carolina forty eight three 1291 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 3: of the wake and Mississippi State twenty four to seventeen 1292 01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 3: over Vandy. 1293 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,160 Speaker 1: Dan, all right, I'm not gonna waste my breath on 1294 01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 1: Mississippi State Vandy, but. 1295 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:15,680 Speaker 3: Talk about hold on, Let's let's move on here. I 1296 01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:18,320 Speaker 3: want to talk about a different game. Hold On, I mean, 1297 01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:20,640 Speaker 3: let's talk about Texas A and M. Though Texas A 1298 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:22,960 Speaker 3: and M has been overlooked. They were left for dead 1299 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 3: after they lost that game to Alabama. Unfairmal cells, unfairental cells. 1300 01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:30,760 Speaker 3: People have been sleeping on A and M. They've been 1301 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,000 Speaker 3: sleeping on A and M. Perhaps they shouldn't, because A 1302 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,640 Speaker 3: and M is actually really good. Yeah, they showed it 1303 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:39,120 Speaker 3: in this game of you know, a really good showing, frankly, 1304 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 3: and how the rest of the season plays out is 1305 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:47,519 Speaker 3: supremely interesting to me because I think highly of this 1306 01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:50,240 Speaker 3: team I did at the start of the year, and 1307 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:53,000 Speaker 3: sure there are still some ups and downs, but this 1308 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 3: is this is a really solid football team that, for 1309 01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 3: whatever reason, to me, at least from where I sit, 1310 01:08:58,320 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 3: feels like it's gotten lost in the shuffle. 1311 01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,960 Speaker 1: Am I misremembering or did I take A and M 1312 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:10,080 Speaker 1: against Florida and you it just interrogate me. In interrogate me. 1313 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:14,040 Speaker 3: I can either confirm nor deny any such statement, Dan, I. 1314 01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:16,240 Speaker 1: Have been an A and M believer all year long. 1315 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:19,560 Speaker 1: I have not been an enthusiastic Kellen mand believer, and 1316 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:21,639 Speaker 1: I think he has proven me wrong to a certain extent. 1317 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,280 Speaker 1: And Isaiah Spiller has certainly been better than I thought 1318 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 1: he would, and the receivers have stepped up better than 1319 01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,920 Speaker 1: I thought they would, even despite some injuries and opt outs. 1320 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:31,839 Speaker 1: But what A and M looks like on the offensive 1321 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 1: line and defensive line. They've got some big dudes on 1322 01:09:35,600 --> 01:09:38,320 Speaker 1: the inside of that A and M defensive line that 1323 01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:43,760 Speaker 1: have been quite impressive, and I just they are one 1324 01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:45,720 Speaker 1: of the like they are to me, A and M 1325 01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:48,519 Speaker 1: when you look across various conferences. I know you've shouted 1326 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:51,559 Speaker 1: out Indiana and obviously Notre Dame has taken a step forward. 1327 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:56,640 Speaker 1: But in terms of teams that have surprisingly gotten things together, 1328 01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:59,519 Speaker 1: now it's a much more advantageous schedule this year than 1329 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:02,120 Speaker 1: it was next year. A and M in a very 1330 01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:06,600 Speaker 1: strange year has become fully realized and we shouldn't overlook that. 1331 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:07,879 Speaker 1: That's crazy impressive. 1332 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:12,080 Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the group of five action, 1333 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 3: the big group of five game. I've got a bunch 1334 01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 3: here listed, but the big one was clearly on Friday 1335 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 3: night between BYU and Boise State. 1336 01:10:20,439 --> 01:10:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is just a beatdown. 1337 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:24,200 Speaker 4: This is a. 1338 01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 3: Beatdown, Dan, I sincerely hope at this point, and I 1339 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:36,080 Speaker 3: know schedules are wonky because of COVID, I sincerely hope 1340 01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:41,240 Speaker 3: that BYU draws somebody prominent in a bowl game, just 1341 01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 3: so we can see what they'll do against a team 1342 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 3: from one of the Power five conferences. Someone in the SEC. 1343 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,879 Speaker 3: Give them A and M. I don't care right now. Interesting, 1344 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 3: are they the second best team in the Big ten 1345 01:10:55,439 --> 01:10:56,200 Speaker 3: if you put them there? 1346 01:10:57,320 --> 01:11:02,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? Oh yeah, are they the the Well, okay, here's 1347 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:03,400 Speaker 1: the best team in the SEC. 1348 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:05,519 Speaker 3: Like they're really really good. 1349 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:11,320 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson is a high level power five quarterback. I mean, 1350 01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 1: I've seen first round conversations about him with regard to 1351 01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:19,280 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. They faced a Boise team who lost 1352 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:22,280 Speaker 1: their now second string quarterback pretty early on in the game. 1353 01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: Right Jack Sears leaves this game injured, and Boise could 1354 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:31,040 Speaker 1: do precisely zero through the passing game thereafter. So that's 1355 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:33,760 Speaker 1: a slight qualifier. But Boise State's defense doesn't try to 1356 01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:36,639 Speaker 1: throw the ball, and they could not stop Zach Wilson 1357 01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:40,559 Speaker 1: throwing the ball. Zach Wilson is legitimate. I am very 1358 01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 1: excited to see him against the rest of their schedule 1359 01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 1: and hopefully a good team they have San Diego State, 1360 01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:47,240 Speaker 1: but a San Diego State team who is I don't 1361 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 1: think they are where they were under Rocky Long Now. 1362 01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 1: That's Brady Hoke, and I think that San Diego State 1363 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 1: just lose to San Jose State last night to their 1364 01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:57,559 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, and that's the story. I've loved the Spartans 1365 01:11:57,560 --> 01:11:59,640 Speaker 1: for a while, and I think it's Brent Brennan, the 1366 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 1: head coach, but I don't know who's standing in BYU's 1367 01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:06,519 Speaker 1: way at this point. So yes, a fantastic story poise 1368 01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 1: state when you when you're down to your third, fourth, 1369 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:10,920 Speaker 1: fifth string quartbate, it's just it's not gonna it's not 1370 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:13,519 Speaker 1: gonna work out well no matter how dark your uniforms happen. 1371 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:17,080 Speaker 3: Are they Uh, they are. But it's like the thing 1372 01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:22,439 Speaker 3: with BYU though, is they're they're they're not just squeaking by. 1373 01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:25,640 Speaker 1: No, they're they're bringing monsoons in the second half, by 1374 01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 1: the way they're they're they're bringing They're getting strongest as 1375 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:28,960 Speaker 1: games go on. 1376 01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:33,479 Speaker 3: They are maiming teams in the second half. And again, look, 1377 01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:36,759 Speaker 3: I don't know how that translates to a game against 1378 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:38,800 Speaker 3: I'll just throw a and m out there, right. I 1379 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:42,240 Speaker 3: have no idea, but I would be damn curious to 1380 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:45,840 Speaker 3: see it, because they have been really, really solid pretty 1381 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:47,839 Speaker 3: much the whole year three with like one hiccup. 1382 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:52,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe that's our Maybe that's our segment after the 1383 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,640 Speaker 1: uh after we sign off to the regular listeners and 1384 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,719 Speaker 1: we talked to directly to the certified and premium verballers, 1385 01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:01,559 Speaker 1: is who could b YU beat? Could be why you beat? 1386 01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:07,879 Speaker 1: That's a very specific segment. I think it's a relevant 1387 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:11,679 Speaker 1: question for Cincinnati though A comfortable win against Houston. Yeah, 1388 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 1: Desmond Ridder with four touchdowns, not crazy impressive for the air, 1389 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:18,800 Speaker 1: but fine and really good on the ground. Who is 1390 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:26,799 Speaker 1: definitively better than Cincinnati right now across any conference? Alabama? 1391 01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:33,200 Speaker 1: Definitively Alabama. I would take confidently Ohio State. I would 1392 01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:39,599 Speaker 1: take confidently against Cincinnati. I would take Clemson with Trevor Lawrence, 1393 01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:42,679 Speaker 1: although maybe Clemson straight up. I would take Notre Dame 1394 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 1: against Cincinnati at this point, I think Desimon Ridder would 1395 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:52,840 Speaker 1: would fall on struggle with Notre Dame's defense. But right now, 1396 01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:56,040 Speaker 1: with that combination of running the ball in defense and 1397 01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:59,639 Speaker 1: where Cincinnati now is many years into Luke Fickle's tenure, 1398 01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:04,000 Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm taking George over Cincinnati. What 1399 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 1: I don't know that I am? 1400 01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:07,559 Speaker 4: I am? 1401 01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,360 Speaker 1: I am confident, but I am it's not a no 1402 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:11,080 Speaker 1: brainer to me. 1403 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:14,559 Speaker 3: Let me tell you what I enjoy here. I enjoy. 1404 01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:17,200 Speaker 1: I think I would take text Say and Am over Cincinnati. 1405 01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:20,479 Speaker 3: I enjoy sitting on this side of the microphone, just listening, 1406 01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:24,040 Speaker 3: listening to your your thought process work itself out naturally. 1407 01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 1: No, take Oklahoma State? Would you take Oklahoma State over 1408 01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:29,639 Speaker 1: Cincinnati comfortably? 1409 01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:32,320 Speaker 3: Man, I wouldn't take Oklahoma State over anybody right now. 1410 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:34,599 Speaker 1: Right, I don't. I don't know that I would take 1411 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:36,719 Speaker 1: oregonl neutral field. 1412 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:43,040 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State is a point underdog to Cincinnati based on 1413 01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:43,760 Speaker 3: what I'm seeing here. 1414 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:48,400 Speaker 1: Okay, so the I would take Florida over Cincinnati. 1415 01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just I'm I don't know if I'm that 1416 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 3: high in Cincinnati. But my point is that I've been 1417 01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:55,680 Speaker 3: here for a while feeling that this is a really 1418 01:14:55,720 --> 01:14:57,960 Speaker 3: good team. I know, and I know des Ritter's got 1419 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 3: some some limitations, right, He's not always the most thrifty 1420 01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:04,920 Speaker 3: with the football, but he's a dynamic talent. He's getting 1421 01:15:04,960 --> 01:15:06,960 Speaker 3: it done both through the air and on the ground. 1422 01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:10,880 Speaker 3: And it's you're right there. It's not a sure thing 1423 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,280 Speaker 3: that you're going to go and knock off Sincanti because 1424 01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 3: they do play really good defense and they yeah multiple 1425 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:16,479 Speaker 3: ways they can be on offense. 1426 01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they've been slabby. The USF game was not great, 1427 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,639 Speaker 1: but right now they're playing at a pretty impressive level. 1428 01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 1: The Mac is back tie and I know what you're thinking, 1429 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:27,560 Speaker 1: that must be the end of the Rourke lineage for 1430 01:15:27,680 --> 01:15:28,840 Speaker 1: the Ohio Bobcats. 1431 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:29,559 Speaker 3: Wrong. 1432 01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 1: Curtis Rourke. Then just another from one to another, there 1433 01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:35,840 Speaker 1: is another. Yeah, but they lose to the Chips thirty 1434 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:40,320 Speaker 1: to twenty seven. The Bauer Hour in a losing effort. 1435 01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 1: They lost to Northern LOI lost to Buffalo. Yeah, that's 1436 01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 1: what it is. Miami of Ohio a nice win over 1437 01:15:46,920 --> 01:15:50,679 Speaker 1: Ball State Toledo. Interesting story with Toledo tie. They hire 1438 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:54,439 Speaker 1: a bunch of new assistants, new new coordinator situation. They 1439 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:58,360 Speaker 1: absolutely looked fantastic because they had a down twenty nineteen. 1440 01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:01,560 Speaker 1: They look really good against what's against Bowling Green. So 1441 01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:04,719 Speaker 1: great to have maction back in our lives. Western Michigan 1442 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:09,800 Speaker 1: demolished Akron, but Nakrinspin pretty bad. Are there any other 1443 01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:11,679 Speaker 1: group of five games that were interesting? I mean, Utah 1444 01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:15,759 Speaker 1: State got destroyed by Nevada and Carson Strong very quietly 1445 01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 1: an interesting quarterback nationally for Nevada. But Utah State was like, yeah, 1446 01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:24,360 Speaker 1: I think we're doing Gary Anderson. I think the Gary 1447 01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 1: Anderson experiment has run its course at Gary Anderson Part two. Yeah, yeah, 1448 01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:31,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned the San Jose State win. Continue. 1449 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:33,320 Speaker 3: No, I was going to say, I just I have 1450 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:35,160 Speaker 3: a few other ones here that I'll just rifle through. 1451 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:38,719 Speaker 3: So since he knocked off Houston by twenty eight. SMU 1452 01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:42,960 Speaker 3: knocks off Temple four more touchdowns for our boys. Sugar 1453 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:49,120 Speaker 3: Shane Bochelle YEP Coastal Carolina wins by seventeen over South Alabama. 1454 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:52,080 Speaker 3: They've got app State in two weeks, which should be 1455 01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 3: a pretty big game. App State knocked off Texas State 1456 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 3: by a thirty eight to seventeen final. And then we 1457 01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:01,519 Speaker 3: also had Marshall pretty big over UMass, rounding out top 1458 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:04,200 Speaker 3: twenty five teams and in the MAC he started to 1459 01:17:04,479 --> 01:17:07,360 Speaker 3: address some of the action there, but we had Case Date, 1460 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 3: Western Michigan, Buffalo, Central Michigan, Miami, Ohio and Toledo also 1461 01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:13,479 Speaker 3: winning their action. 1462 01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:17,680 Speaker 1: Should mention Chavon Cordero for Hawaii another huge game in 1463 01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:22,960 Speaker 1: a winning effort over New Mexico. Also, Tye I mentioned 1464 01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:24,799 Speaker 1: what's it call?
