The conference 4 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: is getting respect even though this week it did not 5 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: go as playing the teams we thought we're gonna win, 6 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: actually lost in the teams we thought we're gonna lose, 7 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: actually one, but it worked out overall. I'm George Bryce 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: Stirt with Ralph Amsden. We're gonna go through all the 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: games and more. And this is the Pack twelve apostile, 10 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: you guys. In this episode of the Pack twevel Apostles, 11 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: we got so much that we're gonna break down all 12 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: the games. But we also we got some great news. 13 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: We got our first fan rant, you guys, don't forget. 14 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,480 Speaker 1: You can send to I'm mad at Unafraid show dot 15 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: com your thirty second rant about the Pack twelve and 16 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: that weekend, whether it's college football as a whole or 17 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 1: your team in general, and it will make the airs 18 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: on the Pack twelve Apostles. So we got one from 19 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: Damian or Tagga today. We will get to that in 20 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,279 Speaker 1: just a few minutes. We're gonna break down all the games. 21 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna go through it all or route overall? How 22 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 1: would you judge this weekend for the Pack twelve. It's tough. 23 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: It's tough to make an overall judgment for me. Uh Yeah, 24 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: there are a lot of teams that are competitive, but 25 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: now we enter into the time of year where they 26 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: all start to cannibalize each other. Um. Arizona State snuck 27 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: out of a game, you know, by the by the 28 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: skin of their teeth. Uh. University of Arizona looked dominant, 29 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 1: even though my dude Khalil Tate played like trash. Uh. 30 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: This was this was a really really interesting weekend. You 31 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: saw Stanford fall down by almost four touchdowns across the 32 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: country and then actually start to mount a little bit 33 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: of a comeback. Uh. And then Colorado just just with 34 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: a couple of really bad coaching decisions at the end 35 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: of the game, they cost themselves the ability to be 36 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: undefeated heading into Pack twelve play. So I'm having a 37 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: hard time capturing one emotion to cover everything that happened 38 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: this week. I would agree it was a mixed bag. 39 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: It kind of felt like with the Stanford loss because 40 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: obviously Stanford is not as good as everybody thought they 41 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: were going to be this year. So the Stanford lost 42 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: with the USC loss, those just didn't feel real good 43 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: because the USA, we we all had hope, we all 44 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: had hope. Way hold up. Maybe Clay Helton is saving 45 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: his job, maybe the past, even though the path had 46 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: been cleared to fire him with Lynn Swan resigning. Maybe 47 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: Helton was just gonna shut shut everything down, go win it. 48 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: B Y. You start out three and oh and clear 49 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: all and quiet, all the rumors surrounding him, and they 50 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: just did not get it done. Their defense looked like 51 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: Swiss cheese. It was tough. But then you get a 52 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: game like Arizona State and you're saying, hold up, I 53 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: don't know how this happened, but we'll take it, but 54 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: we'll take it. And I thought it was cool that 55 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: the because I am a big East Coast bias believer. 56 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: I am the guy that that says and knows that 57 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 1: there's bias against the PAC twelve. However, they started out 58 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: with five teams in the preseason top twenty five, and 59 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: now going into after week three, we have Arizona State ranked, 60 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: Callous ranked, Washington is ranked, Washington State is ranked, Oregon 61 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: and Utah are all ranked. I find it insane though 62 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: that that u c F jumped over Oregon in the rankings, 63 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: because that's where the East Coast bias comes in, because 64 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: at no point in time could a a Oregon team 65 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,119 Speaker 1: who just won seventies seven to six over Nevada, who 66 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: beat Perdue and then thirty five to three fall down 67 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: in the rankings. I mean that that would never on 68 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: Earth happened to it SEC team. That just doesn't happen. 69 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: So it's disrespectful there. And even though the conference does 70 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: have all these teams ranked, now you got watched it 71 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: at twenty two, cal It twenty three, Arizona State at 72 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: twenty four, So what does that mean, Ralph as soon 73 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: as they play each other, that it's gonna be really 74 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: hard for people to take the wins seriously because as 75 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: soon as you beat a team that's ranked twenty four, 76 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: then you're talking about them not even being the top 77 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: twenty five team anymore. It's uh. I think that it's 78 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: a low reward proposition to have, you know, a bunch 79 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: of packed twelve teams bunched together. Especially, I mean just 80 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: in between nineteen and twenty five, that's four teams right there. 81 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 1: Between nineteen and twenty four is four teams right there 82 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: in the a P pole. So ah, I don't know 83 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: if the teams that are up there your Utah's. When 84 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: they win those games, it's gonna look really good for them. 85 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: But if Cal plays Arizona State and one of them wins, 86 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: you know, maybe you get a two spot bump. But 87 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: the other teams can have a really hard time climbing 88 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,119 Speaker 1: back into the polls. So just screenshot what it looks 89 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: like right now, because this might be the best it 90 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: gets for the back twelve all season long. Oh yeah, 91 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: oh yeah. There are six teams ranked, but that will 92 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: change very quickly because it would be different if the 93 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: teams were ranked in between like six and eighteen, because 94 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: then you can lose. The loser of a of a 95 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: close game won't then fall out of the polls. They won't. 96 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: They'll fall to twenty three twenty four instead of falling 97 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: completely out. And that's what you're gonna have. But the conference, 98 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: I think is set up in a good position because 99 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: you taught an Oregon don't play each other this season, 100 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: right right, So if you talk wins the South and 101 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: you get Oregon winning the North now and if and 102 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: if Oregon's only losses against Auburn. Now you set up 103 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: a situation where you may be able to get a 104 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,239 Speaker 1: team in the College Football Playoff, because if Utah wins, 105 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: they'll be undefeated by that time. If Oregon is eleven 106 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: and oh, they'll be in the top ten as well, 107 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: along with Utah at twelve and oh. So then you're 108 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: gonna have to top ten teams showing off in the 109 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: Pack twelve championship game. And that's the kind of matchup 110 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: that can propel you into the College Football Playoff over 111 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: some of these other teams who won't play as tough 112 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: a competition in a conference championship game. Yeah, and I 113 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: mean that illustration you gave between six and eighteen. I 114 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: mean there's five big ten teams just in that space. 115 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: So you know, I think that they're they're gonna have 116 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: a little bit easier of a time fighting for position 117 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 1: uh and and I mean, unless everyone just sort of 118 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: loses to each other, they're gonna have a little bit 119 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: easier of a time fighting for a position um in 120 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: the final four. I do want to give a small 121 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 1: shout out Pack twelve adjacent shout out to the University 122 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: of Virginia, who is being led by a former Pack 123 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: twelve orter back in Bryce Perkins, they're three, and oh 124 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: they beat your boy out to Florida State. Willie t 125 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,119 Speaker 1: Willie teen man, Man that that seed has turned into 126 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: a volcano right now. My goodness. They and they gave 127 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: that game away too. They had like five personal fouls 128 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter just then, and then Virginia tried 129 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: to give it Virginia and the referees tried to give 130 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: it back on the last drive. They tried to let 131 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: Florida State catch back up. It was incredible. I was like, 132 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: come on, man, you're letting this thing get too close. 133 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: But I do a top ten as well for all 134 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: of college football, and I don't have a Pack twelve 135 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: team in yet, but I do have two teams at 136 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: eleven and twelve right now. And I based it on 137 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: three things, the same thing I've based the Pack twelve 138 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: power rankings on, which will get to in the later 139 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: on in the show. I based it on schedule play, 140 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: like who have you played? Have you played in good teams, 141 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: power five teams, top teams, your quality wins, and your dominance. 142 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: Those are the three things I don't care about, no, 143 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: damn I tests. Those are the things. And so so 144 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: far in the top ten this week, I have uh so, 145 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: I have Oregon and Utah sit at eleven and twelve, 146 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: Michigan at ten, even though they looked ugly, but they 147 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: played a Service Academy last time. Notre Dame at nine, 148 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: Texas at a, Georgia at seven, Auburn at six, Ohio 149 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: State at five, Oklahoma at four, Alabama at three, L 150 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: s U at two, and Clemson at one. And no, 151 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: I do not have the Florida Gators anywhere near the 152 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: top ten right now because they're because that team is 153 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: not very good. They have just beat a Miami team 154 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: it was terrible, and they snuck by would have win 155 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: against Kentucky who's not very good either and didn't have 156 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: their quarterback. So I mean L s U at two 157 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: is maybe the only thing that I think anybody would 158 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: look at that and say, oh, that's controversial, because you've 159 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: got a lot of good teams one through three in 160 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: the a P pole and you're saying L. S U 161 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: is good enough to be to push two of them 162 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: out of there. So what you're based on that on 163 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: quarterback play or just they look complete. They can give 164 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: up a lot of points of Texas, they played Texas, though, 165 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: who is clearly by their Are you a Texas Yeah, 166 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: I'm a Texas back person, and and and so L 167 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: s U has played a competitive game. They played a 168 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: game against somebody with a pulse. Georgia has played nobody 169 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: with a post. Alabama has played nobody with a post 170 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: and eat and and uh. This week Georgia plays Notre Dame. 171 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: So if Georgia comes out and dominates Notre Dame, Georgia 172 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: may move into the number two spots ahead of L 173 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: s U and Alabama. It's it's about who you've played 174 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: and your dominance. If so, Alabama hasn't played anybody yet, 175 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: but when they go and play L s U, they 176 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: may just skyrocket up. If they beat them like they 177 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: did last year twenty nine and nothing, then guess what, 178 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: You're probably banking on being an number one team in 179 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: the nation again. And that that's why I think that 180 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 1: you have to play it the same way. In the 181 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: PAC twelve power rankings, That's why I haven't had Utah 182 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: even higher so far because they hadn't really played anybody yet. Um, 183 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: but I do have to give them even more credit 184 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: for their b y. You win right now because by 185 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: it looks a little better and we thought they were 186 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: right now. Uh, but we want to get to the rant. 187 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: We want to get to the rant, and you guys 188 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: make sure you guys sending them in. I'm ad at 189 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: Unafraid show dot com. Your rant about your team, you 190 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: rant about the PAC twelve. Here we go with Damien 191 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: or take us rant. Huge fan of the show also 192 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: big guest fan. Um just finished watching the game against 193 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: b y U and first impressions, you know, our defense sucks. Uh. 194 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: You know, I I love our players, but you know 195 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: I really don't trust under Gas to DC. You know, 196 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: we can't effectively set an edge for some reason, we 197 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: he doesn't use their linebackers effectively. We put no pressure 198 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: on the opposing quarterback, and for some reason, we forget 199 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: how to tackle, you know, halfway through games. And you 200 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: know this is no fault for Slovis because you know 201 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: he's you know, a young quarterback and you know, developing. 202 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: I don't expect him to be, you know, a football 203 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: god or anything like that. But this is a totally 204 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: winnable game. One of two more stops. Uh yeah, I mean, 205 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: Clay Hilton says, you know this is you know a 206 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: special team with special kids. But you know, yeah it is. 207 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: We we have the talent to you know, sky's the limit. 208 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: But you know, our coaching is is that it's a business. 209 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: It really is. And this is why USC fans have 210 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: trust issues. Has been the same you know status quote 211 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: for five years. We have this false positive. In the 212 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: next game, we go and layd it um. You know, 213 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: what can I say other than you know, bringing urban meyers, 214 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: you know, because this is never gonna stop. Thanks again 215 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, really really appreciate you know, you 216 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: got you guys. Is a commentary on the show and 217 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: uh yeah, looking forward to hearing it on on Monday. 218 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: All right, Ralph, he had a lot to say right there. 219 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: He is clearly not a happy USC fan right now, 220 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: as many of their fans are not. What did you think? Well, 221 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 1: first of all, you know, I follow a lot of 222 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: USC fans, I follow a lot of USC media accounts. 223 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: I follow some of those accounts that vacillated between being 224 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: media and fans, and there's a lot of pessimism out 225 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: at USC. I think the thing I like about Damien's 226 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: rant is that he's not really a pessimist. He's more 227 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 1: of a pregnantist. He says, you know what, these are 228 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: the very specific things that we're having an issue with. 229 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 1: I'm sick of it. If Urban Meyers a solution, let 230 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: urban Meyer be the solution. But you know, he pointed 231 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: out some things that he said that the defense he 232 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: isn't playing well, they're not set in the edge. It's 233 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: not really sure what they have to do their um. 234 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: You know, I would say, you know, I'm in waiting 235 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: c mode. I don't think that Urban Meyers in a 236 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: hurry to take any job anywhere. And it's not like 237 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: it's not like it's really doing any harm to have 238 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: Clay Helton in a position that he's in. If you're 239 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: planning on bringing a guy like urban Meyer in after him, 240 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: you know, just just kind of kind of ride it 241 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: out and see what you can do. I don't think 242 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: there's anybody else on that staff mid season who's gonna 243 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: come in and and and make some good decisions that 244 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: I will. I will give him that this felt like 245 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: a coaching loss. I was changing the channel back and 246 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: forth between us C B y U and a s 247 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: U Michigan State the entire game, and it was just 248 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: it was confounding to me that it was like, man, 249 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: you just found out that you've got a world class 250 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: sprinter and Keithan Slovis, and you went and entered him 251 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: in a five catch, Like, just take some shots down 252 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: the field. I get that you're trying to establish the run, 253 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: but it's not really working. The score is kind of close. 254 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: Take some shots. And I didn't. I didn't feel like 255 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: I didn't feel like they were letting him air it 256 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: out the way that a he showed he could last 257 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: week and be the way you know you can with 258 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: Graham Harrow is your offensive coordinator. So I didn't understand 259 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: a whole lot of what USC was doing. I also, 260 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 1: this is gonna maybe this is me being picky. Well, 261 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: the other team was picky. They got Keaton Slovas three times. 262 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: But I will say that last interception didn't look like 263 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: one to me. But you gotta go with the reps 264 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: initial call when you don't have a good angle. Yeah, 265 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: there was not a good angle. Right now, we're right there, 266 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: So we'll start with that game in and of itself. 267 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: The Utah I'm sorry. In Utah, USC, who was ranked 268 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: twenty four, lost to b y U thirty seven, and 269 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: it was disappointing. I would totally agree. They didn't let 270 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: Slova's try to push the ball downfield. And this is 271 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: a time where coaches where they get a little scared. 272 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: I believe that this is a time where Clay Helton 273 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: knows his job is on the line. And what they 274 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: did is they talked themselves into playing conservative. They talked 275 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: themselves into saying, oh, we have a freshman quarterback. He's 276 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: on the road going to b y U. This is 277 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: gonna be tough. Let's try to protect them. Let's try 278 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: to give him easy throws instead of just letting the 279 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: kid go out and play football. And because like the 280 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 1: more that you try to baby a kid in a situation, 281 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: baby a quarterback, especially when he showed he's willing to 282 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: sling it. It's different that you have Chase Garber's who's 283 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: not really willing or capable to sling it at this level. 284 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: It's different. If you have a kid who's willing and able, 285 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: you have to let him do it. And USC's wide 286 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: receivers will make him right if you let him do it. 287 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: They are good enough that they will make top tier 288 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: plays for you. Because USC has better athletes than b 289 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: y U. But the problem was there was two glaring 290 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: things wrong with this USC team. I see right now 291 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: number one and the b y U gave their bby 292 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: use nose tackle. I think his name is Tonga. He 293 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: was whooping their center all day in past protection, run 294 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: run blocking. I mean he was demolishing him and the 295 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: other so their line had trouble. And then the other 296 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: part is their secondary. It was like Swiss cheese, dude, 297 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: like their their past defense, especially when it mattered the 298 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: most people running wide open. There was a couple of 299 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: plays that a couple of guys made, but in general, 300 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: it was not good coverage on the back end for USC. 301 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: And I don't know. I mean, they've put together some 302 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: good recruiting classes, so at this point you have to say, 303 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: are they being coached up to the level that they 304 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: need to be to actually turn these guys into a 305 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: NFL players and be a team that can win the 306 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: Pactol of South Yeah. I just I'm stuck on the 307 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: whole just trying to pound the rocks thing you are USC. 308 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: You've got world class athletes in that backfield, and at 309 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: some point you had to realize that the longest run 310 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: that you have on the day is sixteen yards and 311 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: Marquis step had a fifteen yard run and still at 312 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: the end of the day, you ran the ball over 313 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: forty times in your average and only around four yards 314 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: a carry. Meanwhile, Eric Crowman hook has a sixty yard catch, 315 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: Michael Pittman Jr. Is a thirty yard catch. Like you 316 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: want to try to pick up some of these big chunks. 317 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: You want to trust those receivers. And it just I'man 318 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: ross st Brown getting the ball time, knowing his level 319 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: of that, knowing his level of athleticism, just on a 320 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: bubble screen, just on a bubble screen like first of all, 321 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: first of all, Aman ross st Brown should be dominating 322 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: college football already. Something is wrong. It is not with him. 323 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: I will tell you that maybe maybe it is who knows, 324 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: who knows, Maybe it's a combination of both. He should 325 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 1: be dominating college football right now, dominating as good as 326 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Vaughan's and Michael Pittman are, and and they are 327 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: some of the best that I have seen, some of 328 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: the best that I have seen. Aman rost Brown was 329 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: not someone you could can tane at the high school level. 330 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: He's playing against the dudes he played in high school 331 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 1: and and you're not even giving him a chance to 332 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: touch the ball to see if he can break some 333 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: of these plays. So, I mean, I've got a problem there. 334 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: I think that USC he struggles with quarterbacks who don't panic, 335 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who kind of know what they're doing and can 336 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: handle the pressure, because I think that pressure is one 337 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: of the one things that U. C l A Feels 338 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: like they can use to shake other players. I mean, 339 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: they're playing Drake Jackson on that defensive line. He's a 340 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: true freshman. They don't have a ton of depth on 341 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: that defense, and so when you kind of get some 342 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback and he doesn't really care all 343 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: that much, um, You're You're not You're not going to 344 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: be able to uh to scare a bunch of four 345 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: year old at b y U. The youngest youngest dude 346 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: on that team. Gunna Romney, he let him in receptions. 347 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: He's somebody who I watched play in Arizona. This is 348 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: a dude that could probably play, the dude that could 349 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: probably play for USC. Matt Bushman, he's like one of 350 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: their twenty four year old tight ends. You know, they 351 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: they've got all these good receivers. And you gave Zach 352 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: Wilson enough time to kind of run around and make 353 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: some place he caught a pass. So, like you know, 354 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: they were just more creative offensively. Um, they were out coached, 355 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 1: UFC was out coached. B y U was coming off 356 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: of a very tough game against Tennessee, and they were 357 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: prepared and it when when it came down to it, 358 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: you don't want to be in a situation where you're 359 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: playing a team at home at their home in overtime. 360 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 1: You just don't even want to be in that position. 361 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 1: And then in over time you're gonna throw the ball. 362 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: After not throwing the ball, you're gonna try to throw them. 363 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: It just the whole thing seems silly to me. It's 364 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: another in a long line of examples of maybe Clay 365 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: Helton not being the right guy to get this right 366 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: and Kalati Sataki the coach at b y U. If 367 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: if you haven't looked at some of these future Pack 368 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: twelve schedules, b y us on everybody's schedule. B y 369 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: U is a part of the Pack twelve for the 370 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: next few years, just like they are on the Stay 371 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: for It in Notre Dame schedule, they are on everybody's schedule. 372 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: They're playing Oregon Washington, USC stand. I mean they are 373 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: playing cow everybody, So get used to it, and get 374 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: used to this brand of football because the Pac twelve 375 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: has to win these games against this independent because people 376 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: don't really know what to make of b y U 377 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: and they don't have the same brand recognition as Notre 378 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: Dame if you beat them, so a loss feels really 379 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: bad to B y you, even though it's not like 380 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: it feels like a Mountain West law. I mean, I 381 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: look at y b y U. Is there just a 382 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: bull in a china shop? Like, And even if you're 383 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: the best bull wrangler in the world to wrangle the bull, 384 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: you still have to wrangle a bull like. They are 385 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: big and tough and it is a pain in the 386 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: butt to play them. And anytime you see them on 387 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: the schedule, you gotta ask yourself, like, are they gonna 388 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: make us a better football team or are we gonna 389 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: get ourselves in trouble? This is that you can You 390 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: can chalk them up there with the rest of the 391 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: Mountain West as teams that I just don't want to 392 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: see on people's schedules anymore. Oh for sure. Oh and 393 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: since we're keeping track of the games this week, Ralph 394 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: went eight and four. I'm sorry I went eighting for 395 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: Ralph went nine in three, so he had a good week. 396 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: I would have gone nine and three two. I couldn't 397 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: believe we all picked that. We both picked the exact 398 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: same games. We both went. We both would have gone 399 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: nine in three. But last second, when I tweeted it out, 400 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: I changed my U c F pick to Stanford, even 401 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 1: though the graphics said that I picked U c UP. 402 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: I made it clear in my tweet I'm changing my 403 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: pick to Stanford just to let everybody know. And then 404 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: about three minutes into the game, I was like, oh 405 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 1: that was that was a huge fail. I mean, how 406 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: embarrassing was that game? Which will go to next that 407 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: you c F and Stanford game on a scale from 408 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: one to ten for the Pack twelve conference prints and 409 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: for Stanford itself. How bad was trying to remember the 410 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: last time that I've seen somebody score twenty eight on 411 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: a Pack twelve team in one quarter. I mean, I 412 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: know it's probably happened to Oregon State a couple of times, 413 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: but like, this was this was something else. I Mean, 414 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: this game got out of hand so early, just back 415 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: to back to back touchdowns. It was twenty one nothing, 416 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 1: not even halfway through the first quarter. What are you 417 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: supposed to do there? And then you finally get a 418 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: touchdown back and you can breathe a little bit, and 419 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: they put together a one minute drive to score their 420 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: fourth touchdown. Unbelievable. Just oh, and it was thirty eight 421 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: to seven at halftime. They had no hope. I mean, 422 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: and u c F. I'm a UCF believer. I say 423 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: that they are the best team in the state of Florida. 424 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: They're better than Florida, better than Miami, better than Florida's state, 425 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: better than obviously better than South Florida, who Charlie Strong 426 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 1: may not be there very long. But this team is 427 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: well coach, I mean, and they're doing this without Mackenzie Milton, 428 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 1: who's their star quarterback, who tore up his knee last year. 429 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: They don't even have their best player at quarterback and 430 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: they're doing this. And I and Stanford looked the same 431 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,719 Speaker 1: way they did last week against usc They look slow, 432 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: and it's it hurts them that Walker Little is out there. 433 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: They're all world lineman, but still like overall, their team 434 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: speed looks bad. I don't I am questioning because we 435 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: we all talked about at what point in time do 436 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: WILL teams have a law? But you shouldn't have this 437 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: big of a law when you have a good coach 438 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: like David Shaw. Something is up at Stanford and David 439 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: Shaw needs to make an adjustment because whatever he was 440 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: doing is no longer work. I mean, I'm somebody who's 441 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 1: been saying in for two years that David Sean needs 442 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: to take an NFL job UM because just the way 443 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: that the n C Double A is set up, it's 444 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: just kind of getting away from any advantage that Stanford 445 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: might have UM in its prestige or whatever. Recruiting is 446 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 1: very hard for them anyway. Now you have an early 447 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: signing day that's gonna be really tough. You've got people 448 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,239 Speaker 1: dropping four offers when Stanford refuses to offer unless they 449 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: believe that you'll commit UM, and so it's tough for them. 450 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 1: On branding. It's just always been tough for them anyway. 451 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: They just hit, Uh, they hit a really great streak 452 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: of having a good formula that people have been able 453 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: to adjust to. And now some people are actually adopting 454 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: Stanford's formula with better athletes, which is something that I 455 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 1: feel like Arizona State has set out to do since 456 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: hiring her. Edwards, Um, they gave up runs of fifteen 457 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: or more by three different players. They gave up receptions 458 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 1: of twenty five or more by four different layers. So 459 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: this is I mean they were gashed. They were gashed. 460 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 1: This is not a good um. This is not a 461 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: good Stanford team defensively, and anybody, I mean anybody who 462 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: has athletes and playmakers it needs to just make sure 463 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: that your game plan is to employ waste to get 464 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: all of them in space all the time, because until 465 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: Stanford stops the bleeding, um, it's gonna be a mess. 466 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: Oh remember when everybody was pointing to that Stanford Oregon 467 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: game as a game that Oregon should could possibly lose 468 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: on the farm. If Oregon loses that game, right now, 469 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: it looks bad because that games this week. If if 470 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 1: Oregon loses that game, that is going to be a 471 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: People are gonna be looking at Mario crystal Ball like 472 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: what are you doing, homeboy? So you run up to 473 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: score and on on Nevada and and it gets Monte 474 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: and them. But now all of a sudden, we want 475 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: to get back to conservative play. No, no, nobody, this 476 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 1: is a game that uh not to get ahead of 477 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: ourselves the preview of our Thursday show. But this is 478 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: a game a Stanford team that looks bad. Their running 479 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: game does not look good. Camera in Scarlett is who 480 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 1: we thought he was. kJ Costello, who I was high on, 481 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: looked extremely bad against UCF. He only completed twenty one 482 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: of forty four passes for a hundred ninety nine yards. 483 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: I thought that they would be able to air it 484 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: out some, especially once they got down and then everyone 485 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: knows you have to throw. Everyone knows it. And Stanford's 486 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: only got what like twelve twelve calls for the for 487 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: the passing offense that they're gonna run. You know, all 488 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 1: you gotta do is make sure that you you you 489 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: bracket their tight end and you put your best athlete 490 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: on st Brown and then get some pressure on Costello 491 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: and it's a it's gonna be a problem. Yeah. At 492 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 1: this point, if you're David Shaw, you you like the 493 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: end feels near for this whole style of his recruiting, 494 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: which is like you said, I'm not gonna offer you 495 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: unless you commit, and when you think about how he 496 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: then also deals with his quarterbacks where he won't even 497 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: recruit quarterbacks if he doesn't think that their quote unquote 498 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: his kind of guy, like they have to fit into 499 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: a certain box. And I don't think it works like that. 500 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: Even if you are Stanford, your Notre Dame, you're some 501 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: of these other schools with very high admission standards, you 502 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: still have to find a way to get the athletes 503 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: on the field to win games. This feels like a 504 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: Larry Stanford is the Larry Scott of Like they're with 505 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: their philosophies and all of this to like, oh, yeah 506 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: it's fine, it's fine that we're losing. We're doing it 507 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: the Stanford. Yeah, it's yeah, go down, you go down 508 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 1: with the ship. You're you're you're a man of honor. 509 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: But losing is losing, I think, and I think I've 510 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,719 Speaker 1: told you this not on the podcast, but I did 511 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: know a quarterback whose dream, uh it was to play 512 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: at Stanford. And he's a very very successful, very highly 513 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 1: regarded quarterback with a ton of offers, including some of 514 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: the best teams in the entire country, and he just 515 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: really wanted to play for Stanford. Then this is a 516 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: really good, really high character kid, and he misjudged the 517 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: situation with David Shaw and did the Tom Brady introduction 518 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: of like, hey, I'm going to be the best quarterback 519 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: to ever play for you. And the way that it 520 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: was explained to me is like it just backfired. It 521 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: was I mean, this is a really really good kid 522 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: who's approach to this and they needed a quarterback desperately 523 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: at the time just turned David Shaw off and he, 524 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, he was forced to consider other options, and so, um, 525 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: he really wanted to play at stands or had the 526 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: grades to do it was enough of an upstanding character 527 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: and had probably as much success as any quarterback that 528 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: I've ever watched in person, and and he instantly became 529 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: not an option for Stanford just based off of, you know, 530 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: one or two interactions. And I don't think Stanford even 531 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,239 Speaker 1: took a quarterback in that kid's recruiting class. And so 532 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: I'm very very curious that I'm really curious about the 533 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: way that they recruit some of their players, because for 534 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: some it just seems like a formula like you've got 535 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: a good frame, you've got some speed on defense, and 536 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: you've got the grades, You're good to go. Um, are 537 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: you are you willing to play right away? Though? Because 538 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: they don't red shirt a whole lot of players, Um, 539 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: you know, on the on the front line. You know, 540 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: then then you're good to go. If you're a quarterback, 541 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: you have to be like the perfect human being. Um, 542 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: but we're seeing that that's not necessarily like it's not working. 543 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: You have to sometimes you gotta grab two or three commits, 544 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: let them battle it out and just go with the 545 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: best one. Yeah, I am a a believer in this. 546 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: Then that this is how you build a good football team. 547 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: That you need like fifteen percent, ten to fifteen percent 548 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: of your kids that are high character do the right thing, 549 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: like that, they're self motivated, they're gonna get good grades 550 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: in school regardless of anything that happens. They just care 551 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: about doing the right thing. High character kids. And then 552 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: you need about like ten to fifteen percent of your 553 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: kids who are just assholes and like headed down a 554 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: bad path sort of and you always gotta kind of 555 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: watch them, but they but they have that asshole at 556 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: them and out of that third, and then you got 557 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: seventy of your kids who are gonna go either way. 558 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: They're either gonna go up with the kids and follow 559 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: those kids that are leading, or they're gonna follow the 560 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: kids that are that are doing the wrong thing, and 561 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: you need that balance. But the kids at the top 562 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: have to win. Like so you win and they pull 563 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: up the kids who are kind of assholes and they 564 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: get them on board, then your whole team moves in 565 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: the right direction because that instills an element of character 566 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: and the element of toughness because those those jerks at 567 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: the bottom, they pushed those kids at the top to 568 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: do the right thing. They challenged them in different ways 569 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: and they need that. So and it's the and that's 570 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 1: the safety. It infects your team, and that's how you 571 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: build a good quality team. Um. The next game up though, 572 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: is a game that happened on Friday night. Thank god, 573 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: Washington State won this game thirty one to twenty four 574 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: against Houston. So guess what, Washington State fans, You finally 575 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: got a test. So that whole most efficient offense in 576 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: the in the country, it didn't look so efficient in 577 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: the first half, did it. No, youallly scored seven points. 578 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: That's what happens when you actually play some competition. So 579 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: good on Washington State for winning. But this is where 580 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: you have to actually play somebody in the beginning of 581 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: the season to get you prepared for some of these games. Otherwise, 582 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: if if Houston were a better team, Washington State may 583 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: have been digging out of a hole instead of just 584 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: a seven point deficit at halftime, which may have been 585 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: too much to overcome. Yeah, this game was This game 586 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: was strange in that, like Washington State was eating up 587 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: yards in the first half, um, but just couldn't finish 588 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 1: drives right. And then um, I feel like they were 589 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: still relatively efficient. Gordon only had that one interception. Uh. 590 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: And then you get into the you get into the 591 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: third quarter when the defense has tired out a little bit, 592 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: and you see Washington State start to charge, start to convert, 593 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: start to get points. Um, but Houston is just kind 594 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: of plugging away the whole time. And it was really 595 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: that final drive at Washington State. They you know, they 596 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: get that touchdown to go up two scores with sixty 597 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: three and the fourth quarter where Travell Harris caught that 598 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: seven year a touchdown and then they get the ball 599 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: back right away and kick a field goal. Um. That 600 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: right there, to me was the one chance I was 601 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: looking at them to to try to score because that 602 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: they were, they were on the goal line. If they 603 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: had to score a touchdown right there, that game would 604 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: have just been I mean, I think the end result 605 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: would you would have said yourself, well, Washington State is 606 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: for real. This is thirty eight to seventeen, or this 607 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 1: is thirty four, thirty five to seventeen with four minutes 608 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: left there, They've doubled up Houston on the road, but 609 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: they end up just kicking a field goal and then 610 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: Derek King, you know, scores a touchdown and then Washington 611 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: State has to figure out a way to run the 612 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: clock out. That was, you know, the end of that 613 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: game to me was uh something where I felt like 614 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,479 Speaker 1: Washington State should have stepped on the throat and they didn't. 615 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 1: But when they get going, I mean, when they're when 616 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: their offenses in rhythm, it's going to cause a problem 617 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,479 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. I'm I actually warmed up 618 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: on this team a little bit because of because of 619 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: this game, because I think some of their issues are 620 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: correctable issues. They're not issues of talent, They're just issues 621 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:10,359 Speaker 1: of execution, and if they can execute, they will become 622 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 1: execution nerves in this conference. Anthony Gordon is a good quarterback, 623 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: but he's not Gardner Minshew. I noticed that kind of 624 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: about halfway through the game, there were a few throws 625 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 1: that he wasn't as quick all of that, but he's 626 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: still a good Washington State quarterback in terms of the 627 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 1: offense that they run. So he may not be able 628 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: to provide some of the electricity and the special ability 629 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: that Gardner Minshew did, because you see he was able 630 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: to step in for the Jacksonville Jaguars and play well. 631 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: He played well in Week one and came back and 632 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: played well this week too, even though I think they 633 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 1: lost both games. But Gardner was fine, Like he showed, 634 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: he's comported himself like an NFL quarterback who will be 635 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: there for a long time. He's proved that he's got 636 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: the juice. But overall all, I don't like Washington State's 637 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: inability to run the football because part of the charm 638 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: of the air raid is that you it creates running 639 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: lanes for Max Borgi and some of the other running 640 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: backs that they've had through there in the past, and 641 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: that's what they're not able to do this this year. 642 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: But their wide receivers um Are Arconado is obviously being 643 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: being pretty dominant. Winston junr Uh patent pattern like this 644 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 1: is a team that they have some good whiteouts and 645 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: some good skill position players. But I don't think that 646 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna put the same stress on, you know, on 647 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 1: Oregon and Washington like they did last year. Yeah. I mean, 648 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: if you think some of these yards are empty calories, 649 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: and I can't really argue with you until they play 650 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: a legitimate football team, legitimate defense that they're line up 651 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: across from. But I mean, Anthony Gore got fifty yards 652 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: three games into the season, and I just look at 653 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:11,760 Speaker 1: that and say, like, is Chase Garber's yards passing this season? 654 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: Like they moved the ball and it's fun to watch. Yeah, 655 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: it is fun to watch. I do agree with that. 656 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: Um let's move on to a game that necessarily didn't 657 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: have a ton of consequence though, but it ended up 658 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: exactly the way it should happen. Utah beat Idaho State 659 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:37,240 Speaker 1: thirty one to zero. Uh. Tyler Huntley, he had a 660 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: good day, three touchdown passes, two two yards, had his 661 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: best game of the season. And I'm hoping that this 662 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: is one of those games that allows you taught to 663 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: build a lot of confidence for the future in their 664 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: passing game because that they only attempt at nineteen passes. 665 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,760 Speaker 1: But this is not a team that is going to 666 00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: be able to go undefeated unless Tyler Huntley has at 667 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: least I mean, he's gonna need three really good performances 668 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: down down the stretch, and it might start this weekend 669 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: against USC. He may need a big performance there. He 670 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: may need a really big one against Washington State and 671 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: against cal If they are going to uh oh, and 672 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: then there's at Washington too, Like he's gonna have to 673 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: step up and they're not just gonna be able to 674 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: rely on the defense and the running game. I love 675 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: this game. I loved what they did. I mean, they 676 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: just came out. They threw a couple of haymakers early, 677 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,919 Speaker 1: and then they pinioned down to the mat and wait 678 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: till he stopped breathing that it wasn't fancy. They didn't 679 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 1: try to show boat, they didn't try to hurt Idaho 680 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: States feelings. They just got the win and moved on. 681 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 1: Ten carries for Zack Moss. That's it his I love that. 682 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: I love that. Keep the backups had nineteen carries, so 683 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 1: everybody else saw the four of them. They all got 684 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 1: to touch the ball a little bit. Uh You had 685 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 1: the eighty two yard touchdown from Brian Thompson, and you 686 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: kind of knew it was over um at that point. 687 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,760 Speaker 1: You know, they they didn't have to depend too heavily 688 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: on who I believe is their best receiver in in Britain, 689 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: covey 're the most dependable receiver. They just spread the 690 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: ball around, got it done. Um, I mean there was 691 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 1: this is what what do they call? It was a 692 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: Mortal Kombat flawless victory. They Yeah, they just got it 693 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: done and it's onto the next I I appreciated, uh, 694 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: this performance. I thought it was pretty cool. Yeah, that 695 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: was definitely a flawless victory. You know, they they start 696 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:41,439 Speaker 1: to finally get a little bit of competition this week 697 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: when they head to usc Usc is gonna be reeling. 698 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 1: I mean, this is one of those games where you 699 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: this is a statement game coming up for Utah and 700 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 1: they you know, this is one of those making or 701 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: breaking games I think for him. And this was circled 702 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: on their calendar to when I talk to the Utah 703 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: kids out at Patrol Media Day, they were just like, man, 704 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 1: we haven't won in l a and forever maybe ever, 705 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: and so that this is the game they've all had circled. 706 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: The next game up is a lesson. Next game up 707 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: is a lesson to all pack twelve teams, and but 708 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,919 Speaker 1: this is a time where this team got called out, 709 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: called out on the mat and you know in like 710 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: those wrestling moves where they're like I want you or 711 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: Tyson Fury after the fight yesterday, I want you Deonte Wilder, 712 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: you bum. This is kind of what air Force did 713 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: to Colorado because you don't really want to service. Uh 714 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,479 Speaker 1: the well, the lesson is, don't schedule service academies first 715 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: and foremost, do not do it. They will drag you 716 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,720 Speaker 1: down in the mud make it look terrible, as Michigan 717 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: last last week, as Oklahoma last year when they both 718 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 1: played Army. They will drag you down and they will 719 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 1: suck you down and they will make you look bad. 720 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 1: So that's the first thing. But they had to play 721 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: them only because they air Force is in Colorado, in 722 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 1: Colorado Springs and they've been calling Colorado out. So guess 723 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 1: what Colorado has to play them? And they drug him down, 724 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: took him into overtime, and beat him. Yeah, did you 725 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: did you happen to catch this fourth quarter? Yes? I 726 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: caught the fourth quarter. Okay, So I have so many 727 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: issues with this game. I turned this game on to 728 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 1: see what the hell was going on. Uh. Air Force 729 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: kicks a field goal ten minutes left, and I was like, well, 730 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 1: I mean, this is what Colorado has kind of done 731 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 1: so far, right, Like they've got themselves on a hole 732 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: against Nebraska, they worked their way out of it. Let's 733 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:45,280 Speaker 1: see what they do here. And for the next ten minutes, 734 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: Colorado beat the ship out of air flight like it 735 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: was it was silly, like they Air Force didn't even 736 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: belong on the field. Correct, Colorado is doing whatever they wanted. 737 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: It was like a Harlem globetrotter, situational like getting fancy 738 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 1: between the legs type stuff. It passes all over the field, 739 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: gashing them up the middle, taking their time doing it, 740 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 1: just calm, confident, collected, and then they get that touchdown 741 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: with twenty eight seconds left. Nobody was even panicking. They 742 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 1: review it. Labisco Sheen also over on the sideline drinking 743 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 1: a gatorade, like, what do you guys review this for? 744 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: You think I'm not gonna get in the end zone? 745 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,720 Speaker 1: And then they run the kicker out there, the kicker 746 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 1: who missed a p A T missed a p A 747 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: T already in the fourth quarter, and they kicked the 748 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: extra point with twenty eight seconds left. What are you doing? 749 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 1: They were done. Air Force was done. They were they 750 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: were gassed. They had given this everything they possibly could. 751 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: You were in complete control, and the only flaw in 752 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter up to that point was your kicker 753 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: scrolling up and you roll your kicker out there. The 754 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: kick almost gets blocked. All you do is tie the game, 755 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: and then you give air Force a new life and 756 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 1: a short field. They were done, you idiots. All you 757 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: had to do is run the same damn uh play 758 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: that you ran to get Leavisca Chenal in the end 759 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: zone five seconds earlier. Like you, I've never seen a 760 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: team that looks so good in that moment makes such 761 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: a bad decision like that, because if you go out there, dude, 762 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 1: if you but that's just it. They were under pressure 763 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: and they all looked so calm like it just it 764 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: didn't make sense to me that they would kick that 765 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:48,880 Speaker 1: extra point, especially after missing one, especially because the the 766 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 1: end result is you put yourself in a situation to 767 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 1: give air Force in this crazy offense a short field, 768 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: so you know they're gonna get points, and then all 769 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 1: you just you took the pressure that wasn't there. You 770 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: put it on yourself. Did you go out there and 771 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: you miss going for two, you can at least face 772 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: the media and say, hey, this team's got balls. We're 773 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: gonna play to win. We're gonna play to win at home. 774 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: We didn't get it, that's on me. Instead, you roll 775 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 1: the kicker out there and then you go and get 776 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: your ass beat in front of your fans and over 777 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: time and look stupid like this was Colorado. They look 778 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 1: so good in that fourth quarter and gave it away. Yeah, 779 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:26,399 Speaker 1: this isn't a bad They have to figure out how 780 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: to capture whatever magic they whatever, whatever juice they take 781 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,240 Speaker 1: at halftime, they need to figure out. Take it before 782 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 1: the game, take it in pre game. Whatever mail Tucker 783 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 1: is telling this team, whether he's kicking him in the ass, 784 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: yelling at him, you know, calling threatened to call their mom, 785 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: whatever it is, he needs to do that in the 786 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: first half, in pre game, because this is a completely 787 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: different team in the second half of all three of 788 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: their football games, in the Nebraska game, in the Colorado 789 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: State game, and then in this game. They've been a 790 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: You're not gonna be will to turn it up against 791 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: a SU next week. You're just not This defense to 792 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: a s U was bringing to the table. They're not 793 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:12,799 Speaker 1: gonna let you drop thirteen and the fourth like they no, no, no. 794 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 1: But the the only good news is is that Arizona 795 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 1: State can't score a lot of points on you either, yep. 796 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: And that takes us to the next game. Arizona State 797 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 1: went up to East Lansing, Michigan in a game that 798 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: neither of us thought they could win. We believe that 799 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:37,359 Speaker 1: Michigan State's offense was a little bit better because they 800 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 1: typically are the Utah of the Big Ten. They have 801 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,760 Speaker 1: a dominant defense, but can't score a lot of points. 802 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: They had already put up twenty eight against Toulsa, then 803 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: fifty one last week against Western Michigan, and then Arizona 804 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 1: States coming to town after what nineteen to seven win 805 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 1: over FCS Sacramento State, and it took a late you know, 806 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 1: Benjamin touchdown at seven points. It was really a twelve 807 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 1: to seven victory. And you're saying they're gonna get up, 808 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: They're gonna go up with a freshman quarterback, Jayden Daniels 809 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 1: and get absolutely boat raced. But that's not what happened. 810 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: Arizona State was up three to zero until what four 811 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:21,319 Speaker 1: minutes left in the game, somewhere around there. I mean, 812 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 1: it was atrocious. They were a three to zero, three 813 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: to zero, and then when Michigan State scored that touchdown, 814 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, well, well there goes there goes 815 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: the neighborhood. But because Arizona State couldn't move, they only 816 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,760 Speaker 1: had two hundred and sixteen yards of total offense while 817 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: Michigan State had four hundred and four. I don't even 818 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 1: know how they won this game. Row no idea, this 819 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,319 Speaker 1: is whatever mine Like. I just like, like think of 820 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: like an old fairy tale or something where like somebody 821 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 1: sees an ogre right, and the ogre starts chasing them, 822 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, if he gets his hands on them, 823 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,400 Speaker 1: it's over. And you know he's You're running around, you 824 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:00,399 Speaker 1: run through his legs, You're chasing them, are a little 825 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 1: bit faster, and then all of a sudden, the ogre 826 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 1: trips over their own feet, hits their head on the ground, 827 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: and dies. Like that's what this was. This was Arizona 828 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: State played so scared, so scared, like this is a team, 829 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 1: this is a team that has Eno Benjamin on it 830 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 1: and didn't hand the ball off to him until twenty 831 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: one minutes of play. Had had passed till the middle 832 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: of the second quarter, didn't hand the ball off the 833 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 1: Eno Benjam until the middle of second quarter, didn't give 834 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: him the ball. But eleven times three of those carries 835 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: were in like third and sixteen situations where they were 836 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:37,879 Speaker 1: playing for the punt, so they couldn't. I mean, Ralph too, 837 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: I totally agree with you that they did not give 838 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 1: an No Benjamin the ball enough. But a lot of 839 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 1: tell yeah, they were they were three and outs and 840 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 1: they couldn't block anybody. They could not block Michigan State. 841 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 1: They couldn't protect Jayden Daniels when they did give the 842 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: Eno Benjamin aside from the sixteen that that long of 843 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 1: sixteen yard run and I think that was on third 844 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 1: and long too, and he still didn't get the first day, 845 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: there was nowhere to go. There was nothing there. So 846 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: are you ready for this? They took your advice. They 847 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 1: took your advice. They moved their all world center from 848 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: left tackle back to center, and they put a seventeen 849 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:25,280 Speaker 1: year old at left tackle in East Lancet seventeen played 850 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 1: for John Kitten out in Texas. Last Let's hear his 851 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,839 Speaker 1: name is Ladarius Henderson and he looks like he could 852 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 1: be good someday. But they put a seventeen year old 853 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: at left tackle in a giant, out of conference, big 854 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: time Big ten matchup, and uh. And then instead of 855 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 1: letting him screw up, they basically just said, hey, we're 856 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: gonna throw these little quick passes and pumped. We're just 857 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 1: gonna played the punt because we know our defense is good. 858 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: And um, Michigan State is who I thought they were. 859 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: Brian Lurky is big and strong and can make some 860 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 1: really great throws, but there's no rhythm to what he does. 861 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: There's no rhythm to this Michigan State offense. They didn't 862 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 1: really show much dedication to the run. And then when 863 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:10,800 Speaker 1: they did eat some yards up, they missed the field 864 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 1: goal every freaking time. So I mean, you let Arizona 865 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 1: State hang around and then you say, all right, Jade 866 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 1: and Daniels go and get us a win, and Jade 867 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 1: and Daniels just doesn't like there. He doesn't sweat. This 868 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 1: kid does not feel pressure. He doesn't see even on 869 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:32,840 Speaker 1: that fourth and what sixth seen or eighteen he did No, no, no, 870 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 1: it's fourth and thirteen. He did a great job of 871 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:40,800 Speaker 1: He did so many opportunities he created plays. He didn't 872 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: have a ton of time. He guys were dropping balls. Uh, 873 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: who's a darby? He dropped the ball. I mean they 874 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 1: had opportunities to make plays and they didn't and Daniels 875 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 1: did not get down. He this victory for him was 876 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: a lot like the victory for both Nicks at Auburn 877 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 1: against Oregon. It was a game, it was a game 878 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 1: they should have lost, but it was a game that 879 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 1: that they show what kind of character football character that 880 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:15,360 Speaker 1: they have. And it's always nice to learn who the 881 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 1: moment isn't too big for. And they showed. They showed. 882 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: They showed Jaden Daniels over on the sideline when Michigan 883 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 1: State was lining up for that field goal that they 884 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 1: made but the man had twelve guys on the field, 885 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 1: so then they had to rekick it. They showed Jane 886 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: Daniels just sitting on the bench, arms back, relaxing and 887 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: like laughing. And I was like, look at this little psychopath. 888 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 1: Dude feels no emotion at all in the moment, Like 889 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:41,839 Speaker 1: he's just giggling. He he doesn't care. He's like, what's 890 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 1: gonna happen? They're gonna tie it? Then guess who gets 891 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:45,719 Speaker 1: to go back out there and try to win it. Me. 892 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,200 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, this guy is he? 893 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he could be special. He's got the talent, 894 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: he's got the demeanor. I mean he's still a stick figure. 895 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 1: He needs to thicken up a little bit, but he 896 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:01,359 Speaker 1: could be a very very good player for Arizona State. Yeah, 897 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:06,400 Speaker 1: oh oh, I totally agree. And it's but I cannot 898 00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 1: believe that the Arizona State is three and o at 899 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: this point a point in time, with the way that 900 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 1: they've played, with the struggles that they've had offensively and 901 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 1: with the offensive line, this feels like a miracle. I mean, 902 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,879 Speaker 1: is that a coaching a real quick because you've been 903 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:25,720 Speaker 1: you've been in these situations. Who gets burned for twelve 904 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 1: men on the field? Is it an assistant coach? Is 905 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 1: that the head coach is that doesn't know how to count? Okay, 906 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 1: So a lot of people asked me, and my wife 907 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: specifically asked me too, how does this happen? So what 908 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:43,879 Speaker 1: it usually happens because of an injury, and they were 909 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 1: rushing out there to try to get it off, and 910 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 1: remember they tried to snap it before the play clock 911 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:54,239 Speaker 1: was running out, and then so so UM, Michigan State 912 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: made a couple of hours. First thing they first mistake 913 00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 1: they made was they burned what three time outs when 914 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: Arizona State had the ball, burned three timeouts and they 915 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 1: and they ended up getting the ball back with no 916 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 1: timeout left. So that was the first mistake. The second 917 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 1: thing is, so and how somebody ends up out there 918 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: with twelve men. There was probably an injury at some 919 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 1: point in the game, and then they pulled somebody off 920 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 1: because there's a special team's depth chart. They pulled somebody off, 921 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 1: and then that or that player was getting his helmet fixed, 922 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 1: he had to miss a play, and then and that 923 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: guy thought that he was back on, and that person 924 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 1: who was on then did not get communicated back that 925 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:38,360 Speaker 1: they were off. So that's a special teams error, special 926 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:43,839 Speaker 1: teams coaching error along with a player error. But you 927 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: can't blame the head coach for this. UM. I mean, 928 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 1: but I guess everything does run back to the head coach. 929 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 1: But this is an assistant coach error along with the players. 930 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: And then correct me if I'm wrong. But you got 931 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 1: you got packed all reps right when you when you 932 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 1: go out of friends. It's like the whole NFL deal 933 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:06,160 Speaker 1: where uh Fox has NFC games, but if it's an 934 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: NFC team playing at the a f C stadium, it's 935 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 1: still Fox. So the those packed twelve refs were just 936 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:14,359 Speaker 1: trying to screw up at the end of the game 937 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: because you got the phantom pass interference call which puts 938 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 1: them in position to kick that field in the first 939 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 1: place where nobody was even touched. I mean, that was 940 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 1: that was egregious in it of itself. And then you 941 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 1: have them throw a flag for twelve men on the 942 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:32,960 Speaker 1: field and pick it up. Yeah, so then if replay 943 00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 1: doesn't exist in that scenario, Arizona State, Okay, so how 944 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 1: do you pick up a flag for twelve men on 945 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: the field? He counted twelve men and then you have 946 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 1: to replay. And as soon as he as soon as 947 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: as soon as he had to kick the ball again, 948 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 1: I said, there's zero Chancey makes the GI. I mean 949 00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:55,920 Speaker 1: he shanked it into the into the bench. That was 950 00:52:56,080 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 1: a bill. First of all, I might shank it kick 951 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,840 Speaker 1: into the bench too, if somebody is allowed to jump 952 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: over the entire offensive line, which is illegal and be 953 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: right in my face as I'm kicking the ball. So like, 954 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,359 Speaker 1: there were three blown calls at the end of that game, 955 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: and I was like, this is a Pack twelve crew, 956 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 1: isn't it like that? This is it was and it 957 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 1: wasn't like it wasn't like egregiously bad officiating throughout the game, 958 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 1: even though Michigan State fans will tell you the opposite. 959 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 1: I counted, Yeah, I I counted to each that we're 960 00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 1: just and I don't even feel like it even out 961 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 1: or whatever. But I mean there was one point where 962 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 1: Cody White was like laying on the ground and to 963 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,360 Speaker 1: Marcus Davis runs over three seconds after the play throws 964 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 1: a shoulder into him while he's laying on the ground 965 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 1: and he gets up. Cody White gets up and limps 966 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 1: off like his arm camp move. It was one of 967 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,240 Speaker 1: the latest hits I've ever seen. And not a single 968 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: RESU game just like nothing nothing to see here. Yeah, 969 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 1: And I packed if Pack twelve crews are doing some 970 00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 1: of that stuff, And I tell you what if they 971 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:01,399 Speaker 1: had allowed that that a goal to stand, I don't 972 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,399 Speaker 1: know if Arizona State fans would come back and watch 973 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:07,400 Speaker 1: football anymore, because they still haven't forgiven Pac twelve reps 974 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 1: for uh not counting the two point conversion in Oregon 975 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: last year. Not calling the off sides against Oregon three 976 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,879 Speaker 1: years ago, giving Washington State a fifth down three years ago. 977 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,600 Speaker 1: Like Arizona State fans feel like they're always on the 978 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 1: opposite ends of this, So it was actually kind of 979 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: nice for a SU fans to not have that leaping 980 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,120 Speaker 1: penalty called at the end of the game and be 981 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,240 Speaker 1: able to come out with a win. They're They're like, oh, 982 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:34,799 Speaker 1: this is what it feels exactly. Um Ralph, I am 983 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 1: so excited. I am happy that we do not have 984 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 1: to include Hawaii on the PAC twelve power rankings. I 985 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: am happy because Washington State did what they were supposed 986 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: to do to Hawaii. They beat him fifty two to twenty. Granted, 987 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: it is a lot easier to play Hawaii off the 988 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:57,840 Speaker 1: island than on the island, because it is something about 989 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 1: being land locked air that just screws up. Teams in 990 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:06,279 Speaker 1: Hawaii plays better. Those five hour flights hurt him. Apparently, 991 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 1: the like the time change, it is something and and um, 992 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 1: Washington just came out in the first half. They were 993 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 1: up thirty eight to seven at halftime. I thought they 994 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,879 Speaker 1: were gonna run the ball a lot more, but they just, 995 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 1: I mean, like everything was open. Jacob Easton looked like 996 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,959 Speaker 1: a good quarterback again for twenty five to sixty two, 997 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. They ran the ball thirty one times for 998 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 1: a hundred ninety yards and four touchdowns. This was just 999 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:41,520 Speaker 1: a clinic and not one Hawaii wire receiver went over 1000 00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 1: a hundred yards right one right that. I think that 1001 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 1: that's important. I really like the way that Washington's defense played. 1002 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: Uh this game, um, getting up thirty eight to nothing 1003 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:57,040 Speaker 1: was exactly exactly what anybody who watches Pactrol football would 1004 00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 1: want to see, especially after what Hawaiian did the first 1005 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:03,759 Speaker 1: two games are just sort of hanging around. UM. I 1006 00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 1: like the fact that they got Sean McGrew on the 1007 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 1: field early. Love that kid. He's like five six maybe, 1008 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 1: but he's got the Barry Sanders ability to move sideways 1009 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,759 Speaker 1: as fast as he goes, you know, Uh, vertical and 1010 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:19,879 Speaker 1: horizontal of the exact same for him, is what I'm 1011 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 1: trying to say. And so I love that they got 1012 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: him on the field, that he got a twenty two 1013 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: yard touchdown right there in that first quarter. And then 1014 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 1: it helps to have Hunter Bryant, I mean, it helps 1015 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 1: to have a tight end that that could probably start 1016 00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: for anyone in college football, and they made use of him. 1017 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: And so they basically executed their full offense to its 1018 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 1: fullest extent and and and made Hawaii pay for all 1019 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 1: the frustration they felt after last week's Cow game. This 1020 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 1: is a really, really good game for Washington. This is 1021 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 1: a good win, and it's a nice step into making 1022 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,120 Speaker 1: sure that the Cow loss maybe ends up the only 1023 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,720 Speaker 1: loss on the record this season. We'll see. And but 1024 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 1: but they but they do not have an easy task 1025 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: next week. They have to follow USC. Don't take the 1026 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: same flight path, don't stay in the same hotel as 1027 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 1: USC did when they had to be y U. Because 1028 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,920 Speaker 1: it is not going to be an easy game. But 1029 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:18,000 Speaker 1: Washington should win this game. I mean what, We'll get 1030 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 1: to that more on the Thursday show. I you know, 1031 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 1: I'm just happy that Washington did exactly what they were 1032 00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: supposed to do in this game. UM moving on to 1033 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:35,600 Speaker 1: the next game, North Texas and Cow Man. I talked 1034 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:38,959 Speaker 1: to some of the Cow coaches after the game. This 1035 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,080 Speaker 1: was not They were not pleased with their performance in 1036 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 1: this game. They got up twenty to nothing, it was 1037 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 1: twenty two three at halftime, and the game ended up 1038 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: twenty three to seventeen. Chase Garbers was their leading rusher 1039 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:59,840 Speaker 1: eighteen carry seventy yards, and he added another hundred and 1040 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 1: winning nine through the air, only nine for twenty two. 1041 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 1: I don't even know what to make of this. This 1042 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 1: was just not a this was Cal football. It was 1043 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 1: a you know, a mediocre offensive performance at best, but 1044 00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 1: their defense always keeps them in the game and and 1045 00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:24,560 Speaker 1: the takers do a good job their dbs. Uh what 1046 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 1: do you what did you learn about this Cal team 1047 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 1: from this? They good enough in the first quarter to win, 1048 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 1: So that's that's encouraging. The other thing is it's gonna 1049 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:35,440 Speaker 1: be tough to keep a North Texas team down with 1050 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 1: Mason Fine has got ten thousand yards passing, So you 1051 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 1: you're they're down the entire time, and you put your 1052 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 1: defensive backs, who you swear are the best, you put 1053 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: them to the test for the final forty five minutes 1054 00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 1: of having to play against the quarterback who's carved up 1055 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of people at the lower level, and um, 1056 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:56,400 Speaker 1: you know, he didn't make very many mistakes and you 1057 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:59,040 Speaker 1: still come out with the win. I think, uh that 1058 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 1: that's encouraging. Um being able to at least put a 1059 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 1: point on the board in the second half had to 1060 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: cause them to, you know, wipe some sweat beads away, 1061 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 1: uh from their brow. That the truth of the matter 1062 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:13,720 Speaker 1: is this offense isn't very good. It's not very creative. 1063 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 1: They don't have enough dynamic playmaking ability at this point 1064 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 1: in time. Um and and I don't know you you're 1065 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 1: nine for twenty two. You've got to find a way 1066 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 1: to get Chase Garber's confidence of whether it's just some 1067 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 1: bubble screens or or something here and there, some quick 1068 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: passes to make sure that you give your guys on 1069 00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 1: the outside the ability to make some plays and you 1070 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 1: take the weight off of garber shoulders of making it 1071 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 1: feel like every single throw that he makes has to 1072 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 1: finally break him out of the funk, like give him 1073 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 1: a break. You gotta give him a break. And their 1074 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 1: offensive line did not look good. And that that was 1075 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 1: probably the That was probably the takeaway for me was 1076 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,960 Speaker 1: that maybe North Texas Is defense is good. I have 1077 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 1: no idea, but they they just absolutely I mean Chase 1078 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: Garberge took six sacks and Chris Brown and and Chase 1079 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: Garbage neither the two of the marverage four yards to 1080 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,720 Speaker 1: carry Dancy's longest run with six yards so this is 1081 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 1: just a bad day for the cow offensive line. But 1082 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:16,480 Speaker 1: they did enough in the first quarter to win, so 1083 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 1: he can't really complain too much. Yeah wait until, wait 1084 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,080 Speaker 1: until they had to Oh miss this this week. That 1085 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 1: is going to be a nasty game. That is that 1086 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,959 Speaker 1: is going to be a game. We're like, it's gonna 1087 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 1: look like a street fight in a dark right, And 1088 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 1: I think, well, miss if I'm not mistaken, I think 1089 01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 1: Ole miss lost to Memphis, didn't they. Okay, So Brady 1090 01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,440 Speaker 1: White is the exact opposite. He's a former Pack twelve quarterback. 1091 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 1: He went to Arizona State, UM. Brady White is the 1092 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 1: type of guy who they give the opportunity to just 1093 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 1: get the ball those receivers as quickly as possible to 1094 01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 1: see what plays they can make, which creates space for 1095 01:00:56,400 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: the running game. So they they success against Mississippi. But 1096 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,960 Speaker 1: they're the exact opposite of cal And so I'm on 1097 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:08,440 Speaker 1: a ton of confidence in Kel's offense this week. Oh 1098 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 1: you shouldn't. You shouldn't. They don't have a ton of 1099 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: confidence in their offense either. Uh. I am pleasantly surprised. 1100 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: I guess at the final score of the Oklahoma U 1101 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 1: C L A game. It was forty eight to fourteen. 1102 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:26,880 Speaker 1: I actually put out on Twitter, I said, what it 1103 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 1: what would you rate the chances of U c l 1104 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 1: A beating Oklahoma? And I had it at So you're 1105 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:37,200 Speaker 1: staying there's a chance from dumb and dumber and people, 1106 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 1: and you guys showed up. Thank you, guys, Thank you 1107 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 1: back twelve apostles. You guys showed up with some of 1108 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:46,920 Speaker 1: the most hilarious memes, gifts and replies, and we we 1109 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 1: thank you for it because that makes going through this 1110 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 1: whole season that much more valuable. It is always exciting. 1111 01:01:54,560 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 1: But U c l A. At halftime, Oklahoma was averaging 1112 01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 1: over twelve yards per play round twelve. I mean, that's 1113 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 1: not twelve yards per completion. There's not twelve yards per run. 1114 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 1: That's twelve yards per play that counts. Uh, that counts 1115 01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 1: in completions, that counts everything. Twelve yards per play. What 1116 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 1: the hell is going on around? I don't really know. 1117 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 1: I mean this, if you've got a running quarterback and 1118 01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 1: you've got U c l A on the schedule this year, 1119 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:33,400 Speaker 1: you might end Chip Kelly's tenure. Like Catt, it's got 1120 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 1: to be looking at this U c l A game 1121 01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:38,919 Speaker 1: and thinking these coaches better let me run because when 1122 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts has a hundred and fifty yards rushing on 1123 01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 1: only fourteen carries, and does it really in the first 1124 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 1: three quarters? Oh man, imagine when Jalen hurts his athletic 1125 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:52,160 Speaker 1: but imagine what some real athletes would do. Imagine what 1126 01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:55,280 Speaker 1: Dorian Thompson Robinson would do to this defense if he 1127 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 1: actually got to play against that hold on time out, 1128 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:04,200 Speaker 1: slow down. Because Oklahoma's defense is not exactly world beaters 1129 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:07,280 Speaker 1: their defense it has been carved up, chewed up, and 1130 01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:10,840 Speaker 1: spit out for years. And the fact that you see, 1131 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:12,840 Speaker 1: oh my god, I didn't even pay attention. You said 1132 01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 1: they hit their average again. They hit their fourteen point average, 1133 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 1: which which So I have a question for you. I 1134 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 1: got a question for you. What's more impressive u c 1135 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,920 Speaker 1: l A scoring fourteen points three games in a row 1136 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,120 Speaker 1: or a su giving up only seven points three games 1137 01:03:27,120 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 1: in a row. Maybe not. What's more impressive? What's more unlikely? 1138 01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:33,320 Speaker 1: Giving up seven points three three games in a row? 1139 01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:41,560 Speaker 1: Considering who you played? You Arizona State? Well, actually, yeah, 1140 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:45,720 Speaker 1: they shouldn't have given I mean, seven points to Sacramento 1141 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:49,800 Speaker 1: State is not unreasonable. Uh, seven points to Kent State 1142 01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:53,520 Speaker 1: and whatever. That seems about right, but then seven point Actually, 1143 01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 1: I'll go with U c l A and fourteen points 1144 01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:59,920 Speaker 1: three straight games in a row, because it's like they 1145 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 1: of a ceiling. They cannot score more. They just it's 1146 01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 1: one of those things like you know, have you ever 1147 01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 1: seen one of those movies where people where they have 1148 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:13,439 Speaker 1: their bedroom and aloft, but the ceiling is super low, 1149 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:15,919 Speaker 1: and then you wake up from sleeping, you just bang 1150 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:17,360 Speaker 1: your head on the wall. That's U c l A. 1151 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:20,800 Speaker 1: That's us L a's offense right now. Dorian Thompson Robinson 1152 01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:28,480 Speaker 1: was bad again. He had two atrocious interceptions. Again I 1153 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 1: I am he fumbled the ball, but he didn't lose 1154 01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 1: one this time. He he's a turnover machine and I 1155 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 1: don't know that. Well. Chip Kelly tried to get to 1156 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:42,080 Speaker 1: run in the option again this year. Well this week 1157 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 1: he tried to read option and it just did not 1158 01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 1: work out. I I can't even explain it because the 1159 01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:51,960 Speaker 1: read option is so simple. If you have an athletic quarterback, 1160 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 1: you should be able to make plays. Houston is able 1161 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 1: to move the ball against Washington State. You have um, 1162 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:02,640 Speaker 1: you have Georgia States able to move it. Against Tennessee 1163 01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:08,840 Speaker 1: like it's an offense built too um built too kind 1164 01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:13,520 Speaker 1: of help help when you are talent deficient, when you 1165 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 1: run a lot of r P O s or you 1166 01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:18,760 Speaker 1: know that. That's why Arizona does it so much with 1167 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 1: with Khalil Tate. They don't have the five star athletes, 1168 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 1: but the fact that he's so athletic J. J. Taylor 1169 01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 1: in the backfield that allows them to then create opportunities 1170 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 1: UH one on one matchups where they can be successful. 1171 01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:34,400 Speaker 1: And U. C. L A Is just not finding a 1172 01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 1: way to do that. It is um And I am afraid. 1173 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 1: I am afraid that Chip Kelly, who had so much 1174 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: success in the Oregon don't you have to consider that 1175 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:57,000 Speaker 1: he came on the heels of Mike Ballotti, who built things, 1176 01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:00,400 Speaker 1: who built the program up, did all the heavy lifting 1177 01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 1: after rich Rich Brooks, even but was there for almost 1178 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 1: two decades, did all the heavy lifting. Chip comes in, 1179 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 1: tweaks it a little bit, wins a bunch of games, 1180 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:16,440 Speaker 1: dodges out of town. Has one good year Philly Nick 1181 01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:19,560 Speaker 1: Foles goes twenties, seven touchdowns, two interceptions, so he looks 1182 01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: good again, and ever since then it's been bad. So 1183 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:26,880 Speaker 1: has Chip checked. Has Chip meild it in or is 1184 01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 1: was he riding on the coattails of Mike Maalotti or 1185 01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:35,560 Speaker 1: answer see he'll get it together, Avenge. I just I 1186 01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 1: just think that there are some people in every industry 1187 01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 1: in the history of the world that come in and 1188 01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:48,400 Speaker 1: change things and make other people see that something is possible, 1189 01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:52,480 Speaker 1: and then other people who are maybe more well equipped 1190 01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:55,880 Speaker 1: to execute those things catch up and get the credit, 1191 01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:00,960 Speaker 1: and they're the ones that ultimately profit of it. And 1192 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 1: I mean we and and there's there are stories like 1193 01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:07,760 Speaker 1: this everywhere right from the Bible. Moses never makes it 1194 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 1: to the Promised Land. It was his brother, right, but 1195 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 1: he's the one that had to do all the hard 1196 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:14,200 Speaker 1: work and you and then you you get to it 1197 01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:17,160 Speaker 1: just like it. Would you consider any of the people 1198 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:22,200 Speaker 1: who made rap popular in the eighties, even though it 1199 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,560 Speaker 1: had already been around a while, Would you consider any 1200 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,479 Speaker 1: of them to be in the top ten of all time? 1201 01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:30,160 Speaker 1: Probably not. And so you have people that come in 1202 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:32,240 Speaker 1: and change things and then they're never really able to 1203 01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:35,160 Speaker 1: accomplish what other people are with it. Rich Rod brought 1204 01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:38,520 Speaker 1: to spread. Would you would you want rich Rod as 1205 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:39,960 Speaker 1: your coach if you're going to run the spread, you 1206 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:43,080 Speaker 1: probably picked somebody else's add more success with it. So 1207 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I look at Chip Kelly 1208 01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 1: as a guy who came in and he changed things 1209 01:07:48,520 --> 01:07:51,280 Speaker 1: at the right time and then woke everybody up to 1210 01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 1: the opportunity. And then other people sees that opportunity in 1211 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:59,680 Speaker 1: a better way than he could, because especially if you're 1212 01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: an vader, maybe you only have that in you once 1213 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 1: or twice. You're gonna have to come back up with 1214 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 1: some other new thing. It's gonna be really tough. And 1215 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 1: so I think Chip Kelly deserves a ton of credit. 1216 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,600 Speaker 1: But the truth of the matter is everything that he 1217 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 1: does and everything that he brought to the table is 1218 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 1: common knowledge now. So unless he has all of his guys, 1219 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,439 Speaker 1: and unless he's going to innovate away from some of 1220 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 1: the things that he used to do, I just don't 1221 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 1: ever really think that he's gonna look all that good again. 1222 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,759 Speaker 1: The head coach. He ran out of the magic knowledge. 1223 01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 1: I think everybody else has magic. And but but I 1224 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:39,720 Speaker 1: think that what sucks is he hangs on for a 1225 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 1: little bit longer than maybe he should, and everybody is 1226 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,760 Speaker 1: going to look at him as somebody who failed and 1227 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 1: not somebody who changed everything. It's my fear for Mike D'Antoni, 1228 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,200 Speaker 1: it was, it's my fear for Chip Kelly is that 1229 01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,680 Speaker 1: we should really be grateful because football is better for 1230 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:58,800 Speaker 1: having them around. But the truth is they just they 1231 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 1: just made it easier for a lot of other people 1232 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 1: to have success, and they don't really get to share 1233 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 1: in that success. Um. And then on the other end, 1234 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:09,080 Speaker 1: Dorian Thompson Robinson, this is gonna make me sound like 1235 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 1: a curmudgeon, but maybe there's something to be said for 1236 01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 1: sticking around, going to your local public school so that 1237 01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:16,799 Speaker 1: you can play football as a sophomore and a junior 1238 01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:19,640 Speaker 1: and not sitting behind Tate Martel for two years to 1239 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:21,320 Speaker 1: play with a bunch of all stars and not know 1240 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:23,160 Speaker 1: what it's like to have to get your ass kicked. 1241 01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,439 Speaker 1: I don't know that's a good point. That that is 1242 01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:32,920 Speaker 1: a good point because he went to in Vegas and 1243 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:37,639 Speaker 1: hell helly started the one year and yeah, yeah there there. 1244 01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:40,439 Speaker 1: I mean it's almost like when you have one year 1245 01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: starters in college, they don't typically turn around and do 1246 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 1: well in the NFL at the quarterback position in particular. Um, 1247 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 1: moving on, my my boys, the duckies of Oregon came 1248 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: out and whooped on Montana thirty five to three. Their 1249 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 1: defense looks spectacular. This is the most physical defense I've 1250 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:07,479 Speaker 1: seen Oregon half in quite some time. They they were 1251 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 1: up twenty one and nothing at halftime, and then went 1252 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 1: up twenty eight to nothing. Then it was three thirty three. 1253 01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:19,639 Speaker 1: They took the pedal off the gas um. But Herbert 1254 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:25,320 Speaker 1: finished three sixteen yards five touchdowns. Finally, they have a 1255 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:30,360 Speaker 1: hundred yard rusher this season. No rushing touchdowns though, and 1256 01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:35,559 Speaker 1: but I am thoroughly concerned about this or Oregon team. 1257 01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:39,400 Speaker 1: I have to be honest, thoroughly I am concerned about 1258 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 1: I'm well, I'm not concerned about the defense. The defense 1259 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:46,000 Speaker 1: is the positive. Love it. The fact that they're having 1260 01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:49,599 Speaker 1: trouble running the football is a big deal. This is 1261 01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:52,719 Speaker 1: at three or three games and only one yard rusher. 1262 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:56,160 Speaker 1: That ain't what you like to see. And also with 1263 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:59,639 Speaker 1: the wide receivers. There are some positives in the fact 1264 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:05,599 Speaker 1: that Johnny Johnson, the third is getting going. I don't 1265 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 1: like the fact that that Juwan the Juwan Johnson, the 1266 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:11,519 Speaker 1: kid who transferred from Penn State, hasn't played yet because 1267 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:15,880 Speaker 1: he's been hurt. You got Michael Pittman still out and 1268 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:19,360 Speaker 1: these guys have been dropping a lot of footballs. Still 1269 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:23,679 Speaker 1: same problem as last year, and and you almost felt 1270 01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:28,640 Speaker 1: bad for Herbert. You're like, he he hasn't had besides 1271 01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:33,559 Speaker 1: uh Mitchell from last year, he hasn't had an elite 1272 01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:38,160 Speaker 1: wide receiver. And Mitchell should still be there helping him out. 1273 01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:41,640 Speaker 1: But he doesn't have an elite wide receiver, which is 1274 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:43,760 Speaker 1: I think hurts the running game because it's kind of 1275 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:48,000 Speaker 1: predictable at times. And even though they should go out 1276 01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 1: and just dominate Stanford Stanford, they haven't been good on 1277 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,840 Speaker 1: the road since Christal Baul has been there, and even 1278 01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:59,160 Speaker 1: Taggert was there before that. I am concerned as they 1279 01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:03,840 Speaker 1: head up to Stanford. But at the end of the day, 1280 01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:07,639 Speaker 1: this was a good win against Montana. Eleven guys caught passes, 1281 01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:09,840 Speaker 1: so I'm not a pent sure what you're complaining about. 1282 01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 1: Twelve twelve guys caught passes. Shandalads just didn't do anything 1283 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:16,720 Speaker 1: with his Johnny this is to me, it's an opportunity 1284 01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:19,800 Speaker 1: I've been waiting for Johnny Johnson. He's surrounded by all 1285 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:23,000 Speaker 1: this talent. He always has been. He was playing second 1286 01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:25,799 Speaker 1: fiddle to McKiel Harry in high school. He was playing 1287 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 1: second fiddle to be while he was leading receiver gun 1288 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:31,719 Speaker 1: around me in high school. It's his time to finally 1289 01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 1: step up and take what's his Those two touchdowns were 1290 01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:37,439 Speaker 1: a really big deal to me. The fact that he 1291 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 1: was getting the ball uh off the line of scrimmage 1292 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:44,000 Speaker 1: instead of having to make diving catches downfield is I 1293 01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:46,639 Speaker 1: think the right way to use him. To me, he's 1294 01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 1: an An Kwon Bolden type. Like, you get him the ball, 1295 01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:51,559 Speaker 1: you let him fight for his yard school. He wants 1296 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 1: to give up his body. Let him, you know, just 1297 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:56,280 Speaker 1: don't make him be diving, you know, forty yards down 1298 01:12:56,320 --> 01:12:58,679 Speaker 1: the field after running full speed. I think I think 1299 01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 1: they used him well. I think that you could be 1300 01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:04,559 Speaker 1: encouraged by Jacob Brilliant scoring twice. I think you the 1301 01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:08,240 Speaker 1: spoils of riches that Oregon has, like Jalen Red and 1302 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 1: Sean Dollars are on the same team. That blows my mind. 1303 01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:14,920 Speaker 1: These are two of the quickest dudes I have ever 1304 01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:19,400 Speaker 1: had a chance to cover. This team is playing really well. 1305 01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,840 Speaker 1: The backup quarterback would probably be a top five quarterback 1306 01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 1: in the Pac twelve. You held Dalton Snead, who is 1307 01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:32,439 Speaker 1: absolutely electric to zero touchdown passes and negative eight yards rushing. 1308 01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 1: This was a fantasy. This is one of the best 1309 01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:38,720 Speaker 1: performances of the entire week for the Pack twelve. For me, 1310 01:13:39,160 --> 01:13:42,760 Speaker 1: it was a complete performance. And if there's issues with 1311 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,760 Speaker 1: dropping the ball, those are fixable things. So to me, 1312 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:50,599 Speaker 1: any time you have an issue that's fixable and and 1313 01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:52,839 Speaker 1: and it's not chronic to the point of being comical, 1314 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:58,920 Speaker 1: I'm encouraged. So so I think right now, no, I 1315 01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:01,679 Speaker 1: just think that you're I think that you're you. You 1316 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:04,639 Speaker 1: know what this team is capable of. You follow them 1317 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:08,040 Speaker 1: very closely, and there are opportunities that you would like 1318 01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:11,160 Speaker 1: to see. Um. But you know, I just watched the 1319 01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 1: team score seven points right at the end of quarter, 1320 01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:17,200 Speaker 1: and so like when I look at this thirty five 1321 01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:18,880 Speaker 1: or three game, I'm just not gonna feel sorry for you. 1322 01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:28,400 Speaker 1: George cal Polly, Well, actually, let's just celebrate. Oregon State 1323 01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:35,280 Speaker 1: gotta win. They got w oh um. They granted it 1324 01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:38,920 Speaker 1: was against cal Poly. They won forty five to seven. 1325 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:45,760 Speaker 1: This I mean they dominated, They dominated from the um 1326 01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:50,800 Speaker 1: from the start to the finish. What do you I 1327 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 1: mean they won a game? What do you make of this? Ralph? 1328 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,360 Speaker 1: I laughed a little bit because it was like man 1329 01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:00,240 Speaker 1: cal Poly was still kind of running them all on 1330 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:02,760 Speaker 1: him a little bit, and I was like, guys gonna 1331 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:06,720 Speaker 1: as a self respect and shut this theme down, Like 1332 01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:08,759 Speaker 1: they had a guy who rushed for almost a hundred 1333 01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,760 Speaker 1: forty yards on him. Um, but they did shut down 1334 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,760 Speaker 1: their quarterbacks a dual threat guy and they absolutely made 1335 01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:17,439 Speaker 1: his life a living house. So I think they did 1336 01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:22,080 Speaker 1: a good job of keenan on the quarterback Um. Gebbia 1337 01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:24,800 Speaker 1: got some time at quarterback, which I think is gonna 1338 01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:29,120 Speaker 1: be helpful for when they have to transition. Isaiah Hodgens 1339 01:15:29,160 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 1: looks more and more like a star, like a genuine 1340 01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 1: star in the Pact twelve, so it was good to 1341 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:39,439 Speaker 1: see him go out and get his um our boy, 1342 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 1: uh isn't Champ Flemings And he had a hundred and 1343 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:51,280 Speaker 1: forty some yards receiving, So I mean that was kind 1344 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:54,040 Speaker 1: of a funny story for a second. Now it's just 1345 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 1: cool like that that dude can play and and so 1346 01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:00,800 Speaker 1: it's that that that was really really cool to see 1347 01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:04,000 Speaker 1: because cal Polis maybe a school where this kid would 1348 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,439 Speaker 1: have you know what would have ended up if Oregon 1349 01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:08,280 Speaker 1: State doesn't take a chance and let him, let him 1350 01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:10,600 Speaker 1: come out there and play, and he just rips this 1351 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:14,120 Speaker 1: team up. So, um, I don't know, it's fun. It's 1352 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:16,000 Speaker 1: fun because they're probably not gonna be too many more 1353 01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:20,200 Speaker 1: of these. Um, I'm just I'm happy for him to 1354 01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:22,599 Speaker 1: go out there and get away. If you guys are wondering, 1355 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:27,280 Speaker 1: because not because most people have no idea how how 1356 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:30,000 Speaker 1: good cal Poly is. They are in the Big Sky 1357 01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:34,080 Speaker 1: Conference and last year they went five and six. I 1358 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:36,479 Speaker 1: believe in the year before that they went one in 1359 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 1: ten or one in eleven. So this is not a good, good, 1360 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 1: good football team. Then the Oregon States not trending in 1361 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 1: the right directions that they just gotta win. Even U 1362 01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:50,160 Speaker 1: C l A would beat this team. Yeah, and and 1363 01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:52,920 Speaker 1: and what what was nice was just not allowing a 1364 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:56,639 Speaker 1: bunch of points because Oregon State got forty five. Well, 1365 01:16:57,120 --> 01:16:59,760 Speaker 1: I mean a universe exists where I could imagine Oregon 1366 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 1: State scoring forty five on about seven of the pack 1367 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:05,320 Speaker 1: twelve teams. So but I can also see them giving 1368 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:08,800 Speaker 1: up a hundred and twenty. So Oregon State's offense is 1369 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:13,760 Speaker 1: actually pretty damn good unit. Um. But yeah, the defensively 1370 01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,080 Speaker 1: is where you've got to be most encouraged here and 1371 01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:18,960 Speaker 1: my goodness that they beat up this jail and handler quarter. 1372 01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 1: They they just destroyed him. One carries for twenty seven yards. 1373 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,519 Speaker 1: He was sacked three times. I mean, they were just 1374 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 1: won one Pack twelve game. Last year. They won zero 1375 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,240 Speaker 1: of the year before that, and last year was they 1376 01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 1: they snaked uh, Colorado had towards the end of the 1377 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 1: season as part of their seven game losing streak. And 1378 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:43,280 Speaker 1: the thing I would like to see from this team 1379 01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:46,760 Speaker 1: going forward, it's just to stay competitive. Even if they 1380 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:48,640 Speaker 1: don't win a Pack twelve game this year, even though 1381 01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:50,840 Speaker 1: that should be a goal, the goal should be to 1382 01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:53,960 Speaker 1: stay competitive and not lose games by I think they 1383 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 1: lost eight seven games last year by twenty at least 1384 01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:02,400 Speaker 1: twenty someome my points. I forgot the exact stat, but 1385 01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:05,439 Speaker 1: it was bad. The majority of their losses they got housed. 1386 01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:08,759 Speaker 1: So I think the goal this year should be stay close, 1387 01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 1: stay in contention, and maybe sneak a winner to win 1388 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:17,400 Speaker 1: if possible. Another shocker. The final game of the Pack 1389 01:18:17,439 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 1: twelve was a shocker. It was a shocker because we 1390 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:27,960 Speaker 1: both did not love Arizona in this football game. Arizona 1391 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,519 Speaker 1: feels like they're doing exactly what they did last year. 1392 01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:34,560 Speaker 1: They started out horrendous, but then some kind of way 1393 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:38,120 Speaker 1: they bounced back and played better. And you're like, wait, 1394 01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:40,720 Speaker 1: hold up, I told you guys were the bad team. 1395 01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:45,080 Speaker 1: And Khalil Tate, Khalil Tate, Amston who Ralph is now 1396 01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:50,240 Speaker 1: trying to disown. No, I'm not trying to diss on him. 1397 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:55,240 Speaker 1: He sucked in this game, though. Well, he was terrible 1398 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 1: doing the thing he's not great at. But he was 1399 01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:59,320 Speaker 1: great at doing the thing that he's great at. It 1400 01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,280 Speaker 1: great at running to football, seventeen carries, hundred twenty nine yards, 1401 01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:07,080 Speaker 1: eight four yard touchdown. Listen, he's great at that. He's 1402 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:10,240 Speaker 1: just not great at the quarterback. Then, so in Texas 1403 01:19:10,280 --> 01:19:13,720 Speaker 1: Tech had a good defense last year. They returned a 1404 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:15,800 Speaker 1: bunch of starters. I think they were the number one 1405 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:21,040 Speaker 1: defense on third down last year. Soliltate through two interceptions, 1406 01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:26,439 Speaker 1: which they were they were rough interceptions. Yeah, and but 1407 01:19:26,439 --> 01:19:29,679 Speaker 1: but everybody but but Ralph will keep trying to tell 1408 01:19:29,720 --> 01:19:34,320 Speaker 1: me that Coltates a quarterback. I do I think he is. Okay, okay, okay, 1409 01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:37,519 Speaker 1: let's just put it this way, alright. I believe that 1410 01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:42,760 Speaker 1: Khalil Tate. I believe that Khalilt. If you put his 1411 01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:47,400 Speaker 1: last fourteen games up against any other pack twelve quarterback 1412 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:53,400 Speaker 1: would have favorable passing numbers. I believe that with all 1413 01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 1: my heart, even though even though this game didn't go well. Okay, 1414 01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna read you some Ralph numbers. Numbers lie 1415 01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:08,640 Speaker 1: just because if you look at the Ralph, if you 1416 01:20:08,720 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 1: look at the game, he's just tossing balls up in 1417 01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:14,920 Speaker 1: the air and the receivers are making spectacular catches, and 1418 01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:18,720 Speaker 1: then you know those run pass options because he's so 1419 01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:22,719 Speaker 1: electric with his legs, they get linebackers caught. They're throwing 1420 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:25,840 Speaker 1: the ball over people's head and people are are are 1421 01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:30,960 Speaker 1: running free. He's not actually quarterbacking. He is running this 1422 01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:34,719 Speaker 1: r P O and it allows players to run wide open. 1423 01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:37,719 Speaker 1: And Arizona made some big plays over the last fourteen 1424 01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:40,000 Speaker 1: games that that you're gonna tell me, Go ahead, Ralph, 1425 01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:43,679 Speaker 1: tell me why Caltate is better than than Justin Herbert, 1426 01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:48,040 Speaker 1: Jacob Easton, kJ conc Costello, Jayden Daniels and every other 1427 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 1: quarterback in the conference that I would take over him 1428 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 1: as a past I don't have to kick the ladder 1429 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:54,640 Speaker 1: out from anybody else to be high up on my 1430 01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:59,040 Speaker 1: own ladder. Right, everybody can eat, everybody can be special 1431 01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 1: in their own way. Everybody's number one, everybody not everybody's 1432 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,519 Speaker 1: number one. The question is are you or are you not? 1433 01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:11,719 Speaker 1: A quarterback? This isn't about rankings. That's a completely different 1434 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:14,599 Speaker 1: conversation that I definitely do not want to have at 1435 01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 1: this point. What I am saying is that he is 1436 01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:24,160 Speaker 1: a respectable prospect as a quarterback who happens to be 1437 01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:28,640 Speaker 1: an electric athlete. Okay, so, and I don't believe that 1438 01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:30,640 Speaker 1: you can have it both ways. I don't believe that 1439 01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:33,360 Speaker 1: you can say he just lofts these balls up there 1440 01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:35,960 Speaker 1: and then at the same time show that he's actually 1441 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:41,719 Speaker 1: been pretty efficient as a passer. Last night's game wasn't great. 1442 01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:45,320 Speaker 1: It wasn't great. But what it does cap off is 1443 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,080 Speaker 1: a fourteen game run. And that's what everybody wants, is 1444 01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:50,120 Speaker 1: a four team game run. It's only two teams get 1445 01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,519 Speaker 1: to have a fifteen game run, right, so everybody wants 1446 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:54,000 Speaker 1: to have a fourteen game run where they get to 1447 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,280 Speaker 1: play in a conference championship and go to a bowl game. 1448 01:21:56,560 --> 01:22:00,360 Speaker 1: Over the last fourteen games. This is a running at 1449 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:05,040 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. We're saying has thirty two hundred yards passing, 1450 01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 1: thirty one touchdowns and twelve interceptions, and everyone wants to 1451 01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:12,559 Speaker 1: say he's a running back. Well, he's only got five 1452 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 1: hundred yards rushing and only about four or five touchdowns. 1453 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:18,920 Speaker 1: But I feel like that's that's pretty fair. If you 1454 01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:21,320 Speaker 1: over a fourteen game season, if somebody in the pack 1455 01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:25,719 Speaker 1: twelve who is not a quarterback, those fords thirty two touchdowns, 1456 01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:28,000 Speaker 1: I feel like that was pretty good. John Elway never 1457 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 1: threw for more than twenty seven touchdowns in his entire career. 1458 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: NFL included like they they he can move the ball. 1459 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 1: He is a quarterback. Think so, so if you take 1460 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:41,519 Speaker 1: up so, I'm ask you a question. I know this 1461 01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:43,680 Speaker 1: is your family, I know this is your son. I know, 1462 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:46,920 Speaker 1: but I need you to try to be objective for 1463 01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:49,920 Speaker 1: a minute. Route you're telling me that if you take 1464 01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:52,519 Speaker 1: away the run pass option away from him and you 1465 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,439 Speaker 1: make him drop back and throw the football, that you 1466 01:22:55,520 --> 01:23:00,439 Speaker 1: think that those numbers exist if you take away the 1467 01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 1: run pass option from No. No, I'm saying that if 1468 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:07,960 Speaker 1: you make him drop back, like if it's third downs 1469 01:23:07,960 --> 01:23:09,720 Speaker 1: and longs and you make him drop back and throw 1470 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:14,120 Speaker 1: the football, you think that that his efficient is passing efficiency, 1471 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:16,880 Speaker 1: and these numbers look exactly the same way. If he 1472 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:19,720 Speaker 1: can't run the football to threaten people and pull all 1473 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:22,120 Speaker 1: those linebackers up. I'll tell you this. He couldn't run 1474 01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:24,200 Speaker 1: last year. He was hurt, he couldn't run at all. 1475 01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:27,960 Speaker 1: So these are those numbers. He couldn't run. He didn't 1476 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:31,800 Speaker 1: he didn't drup. He did not run last year. You 1477 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:34,000 Speaker 1: know that you watch those games. So the numbers are 1478 01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:37,719 Speaker 1: the numbers. The option wasn't there. Now the option is there, 1479 01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:39,640 Speaker 1: and he finally ran yesterday and then all of a 1480 01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:45,120 Speaker 1: sudden he can't pass again. Rob, Rob, I see today's 1481 01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:47,160 Speaker 1: one of the days.

Ralph, what are your power rankings for 1493 01:24:19,120 --> 01:24:23,439 Speaker 1: week three? Al Right, my bottom six? Oregon States still 1494 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 1: at the bottom, even though I'm encouraged by what I 1495 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:27,640 Speaker 1: saw might be a coin flip with them in U 1496 01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:28,920 Speaker 1: c l A. But I've got U c l A 1497 01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:32,560 Speaker 1: at number eleven. Coming in at number ten is Stanford, 1498 01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:34,559 Speaker 1: and I am ashamed to even have them there. But 1499 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 1: it's their fault, not mine. Arizona is at number eight, 1500 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,120 Speaker 1: um and they played, well, who did you have a 1501 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:46,600 Speaker 1: number nine? Stanford? So I got Oregon State than U 1502 01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:49,000 Speaker 1: c l A. Than Stanford, and then I got Arizona 1503 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:55,679 Speaker 1: at number eight. Arizona played well, your math is your 1504 01:24:56,360 --> 01:25:00,760 Speaker 1: your Khalil Tape math has rubbed off on you. I've said, 1505 01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:03,439 Speaker 1: I said that the four and eight team. I said 1506 01:25:03,439 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 1: this would know your Khalil Tate math is rubbing off 1507 01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:08,680 Speaker 1: on you because you said you had Oregon State as 1508 01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:12,800 Speaker 1: well U c l A at eleven, Stanford at number ten, 1509 01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:14,800 Speaker 1: and then you said you had Arizona at number eight. 1510 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:17,439 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's bad math. Then all right, I got 1511 01:25:17,520 --> 01:25:20,360 Speaker 1: everyone at number nine. That is bad math. It's it's been, 1512 01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 1: it's it's been a long show. You got me worked up. 1513 01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be emailing. I'm mad at unafraid show dot 1514 01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 1: com to finish my Kalil tate rant. I got Arizona 1515 01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:31,760 Speaker 1: at number nine. They showed a defense against Texas Tech 1516 01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:33,920 Speaker 1: and the win was impressive, but all of a sudden 1517 01:25:33,960 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 1: they get one thing fixed and the other thing broke. 1518 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:40,320 Speaker 1: So I'm still not convinced on them in Colorado. Um, 1519 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:42,880 Speaker 1: I think the first half issue is fixable. We'll see. 1520 01:25:43,200 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 1: I've got them at number eight. Number seven is Arizona State. 1521 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:49,320 Speaker 1: The reason that their number seven is because they only 1522 01:25:49,360 --> 01:25:54,479 Speaker 1: give up seven every single week. Number number six. I'm 1523 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:57,680 Speaker 1: gonna put USC actually behind cal it number five. So 1524 01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:00,880 Speaker 1: to round out my my, my, my Autumn, I guess, 1525 01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:04,360 Speaker 1: I guess. I just gave you eight teams because I'm excited. 1526 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:09,320 Speaker 1: But for right now, Oregon State, U C l A, Stanford, Arizona, Colorado, 1527 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:12,880 Speaker 1: Arizona State, USC and Cow. Do you want me to 1528 01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:17,320 Speaker 1: round out my top four? No? Uh, I tell you 1529 01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,720 Speaker 1: you need to shut up. That's what you need. We have. 1530 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:24,160 Speaker 1: I got Oregon State at twelve. This is an easy 1531 01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:26,080 Speaker 1: You don't get a whole lot of credit for beating 1532 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:29,120 Speaker 1: an FCS team and a bad one at that u 1533 01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:32,400 Speaker 1: c l A who is fighting to fighting very hard 1534 01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:34,920 Speaker 1: for that number twelve spot. And if there were a 1535 01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 1: number four team, they would get number four team, like 1536 01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:41,120 Speaker 1: you gave Arizona State the number seven because they only 1537 01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:43,080 Speaker 1: give up seven U c l A on the gives 1538 01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:46,360 Speaker 1: up only scores fourteen points. That would that would work 1539 01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:48,360 Speaker 1: if they had Cow's defense, but that's not the case. 1540 01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:51,920 Speaker 1: I got Stanford at number ten at one and two, 1541 01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 1: that was obvious. I got Arizona at number nine as well. 1542 01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,599 Speaker 1: I can't believe that we are lockstep all the way 1543 01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:02,000 Speaker 1: to number eight with Colorado number seven. I got USC. 1544 01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:06,639 Speaker 1: USC's lost to be why you was bad, I mean 1545 01:27:06,640 --> 01:27:09,759 Speaker 1: it was bad. So they're they're falling down because of coaching, 1546 01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 1: and they've fallen down because of and because that Stanford win, 1547 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:19,599 Speaker 1: because I ranked mind based upon schedule, played dominance and 1548 01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:23,240 Speaker 1: quality wins, and that Stanford win, that domination that we 1549 01:27:23,320 --> 01:27:26,559 Speaker 1: thought was a quality win, found out last week at 1550 01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:28,760 Speaker 1: u C Up it was not that quality of a win. 1551 01:27:29,360 --> 01:27:32,240 Speaker 1: So that's why Stanford, I'm sorry, that's why USC is 1552 01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:36,400 Speaker 1: at number seven behind my number six team, Arizona State 1553 01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 1: Sun Devils. Listen there, it's not pretty. It's not pretty, 1554 01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:43,720 Speaker 1: but they're winning. They are winning, and that's all that 1555 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,120 Speaker 1: matters at the end of the day. So they're they're 1556 01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,639 Speaker 1: racking up quality wins. They get zero points for dominance 1557 01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:53,400 Speaker 1: and they get UH and their schedule is okay now 1558 01:27:53,439 --> 01:27:57,639 Speaker 1: that they've played Michigan Michigan State. And number five, I 1559 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:01,519 Speaker 1: got the Washington State Cougar US who played against the 1560 01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:07,719 Speaker 1: Cougars of Houston. They finally played somebody and it showed 1561 01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 1: they had a little bit of struggles, but they ended 1562 01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:12,960 Speaker 1: up pulling out the game. Often still looks good. Mike 1563 01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:18,000 Speaker 1: Leaked is a good coach. That's my UH twelve through five. Okay, 1564 01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:21,679 Speaker 1: so my number four because like a kid who's maybe 1565 01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:24,639 Speaker 1: two years past, believe it in Santa But here's something 1566 01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:27,799 Speaker 1: out on the roof on Christmas Eve. Maybe I'm starting 1567 01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:30,479 Speaker 1: to believe again. We'll see if it's Santa Claus or 1568 01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:33,080 Speaker 1: we'll see if it's just some squirrels out on the roof. 1569 01:28:33,160 --> 01:28:35,760 Speaker 1: But I think that Washington State is starting to show 1570 01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:38,679 Speaker 1: me that maybe they're a complete football team. At number three, 1571 01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:41,160 Speaker 1: I've got Washington. It's hard for me to get out 1572 01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 1: of my head what happened against Cal, and so maybe 1573 01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:46,800 Speaker 1: it's crazy to have them rank two spots above Cal. 1574 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:49,960 Speaker 1: But I know that Washington has a functioning offense and 1575 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:52,679 Speaker 1: a functioning defense, and I don't know that Cal has 1576 01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:55,679 Speaker 1: both of those things. So that explains that Cal fans 1577 01:28:56,000 --> 01:29:00,000 Speaker 1: I love you. I'm mad at Unafraid show dot com. Uh, 1578 01:29:00,400 --> 01:29:07,280 Speaker 1: that is nonsense. A week ago, one week ago, Cow 1579 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:10,800 Speaker 1: beat Washington. This was not an anomaly. They didn't want 1580 01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:13,960 Speaker 1: It happened at three in the morning after the first 1581 01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:18,720 Speaker 1: electrical storm and didn't Washington. They did it last year, 1582 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:21,640 Speaker 1: twelve to ten, Ralph. And you you're acting like this 1583 01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:23,800 Speaker 1: is an outlier. They did it twice. If you do 1584 01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:26,599 Speaker 1: something once, it's an accident, you do it twice, you 1585 01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:29,120 Speaker 1: know what you're doing in it's on purpose. So I 1586 01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:33,240 Speaker 1: I demand, I demand, I'm calling the recount. I am 1587 01:29:33,360 --> 01:29:38,240 Speaker 1: just you are up to no good with with ranking 1588 01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:42,920 Speaker 1: a team above another team who they just beat. Rolph. 1589 01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:46,120 Speaker 1: I I hate this. It's it's it's a power rank. 1590 01:29:46,120 --> 01:29:48,840 Speaker 1: It's a power ranking. I think that Washington State has 1591 01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:51,280 Speaker 1: more power. They can do it on both sides of 1592 01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:56,519 Speaker 1: the ball and Cow Washington. Well, how about when Washington 1593 01:29:56,560 --> 01:30:01,559 Speaker 1: blaze Cow? So so if Washington as Cow ten times, 1594 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:05,240 Speaker 1: how many times does just Cow win? Probably the same 1595 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:08,000 Speaker 1: as my next number two? Oregon is my number two. 1596 01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:12,000 Speaker 1: I want to give this my number two. Um, they 1597 01:30:12,040 --> 01:30:14,080 Speaker 1: just got so much speed on offense and now that 1598 01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:16,680 Speaker 1: they've got a little bit of a defense. Um, they 1599 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:19,800 Speaker 1: could probably be the most complete team in the Pac 1600 01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 1: twelve and after So why aren't they number one? Ralph? Uh? 1601 01:30:24,200 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 1: Because Utah put a team to sleep all the way, 1602 01:30:27,280 --> 01:30:29,800 Speaker 1: all the way, all the way. Those shutouts matter to me. 1603 01:30:30,360 --> 01:30:33,719 Speaker 1: I think that I think that it was Idaho State. 1604 01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:37,280 Speaker 1: B y U has beaten Tennessee and they've beaten USC, 1605 01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:41,720 Speaker 1: and Utah beat the crap out of them, So they 1606 01:30:41,800 --> 01:30:44,800 Speaker 1: gotta be number one for me right now. They gotta 1607 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:46,560 Speaker 1: be number one from me right now because b y 1608 01:30:46,640 --> 01:30:50,120 Speaker 1: U has two quality wins and Utah owns both of 1609 01:30:50,160 --> 01:30:54,360 Speaker 1: those wins because they took it to that team. So 1610 01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:58,599 Speaker 1: that that's that's why you are a Pack twelve, South Lover, 1611 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:01,879 Speaker 1: That's what that's what it is. I got Washington Huskies 1612 01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:05,840 Speaker 1: at number four, behind the team they lost to in 1613 01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:09,200 Speaker 1: a proper Power Ranking Route. I just want to speeches 1614 01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:10,720 Speaker 1: for a second, but I just want to point out 1615 01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:14,599 Speaker 1: that my team number two, three, four, and five are 1616 01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:20,800 Speaker 1: alsom the back twelve of North Yeah yeah, but you, 1617 01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 1: but you, but you out did but you canceled that 1618 01:31:23,479 --> 01:31:26,240 Speaker 1: out when you put Utah number number one, you had 1619 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:28,080 Speaker 1: to give them the number one spot, So I got 1620 01:31:28,120 --> 01:31:32,559 Speaker 1: cow number three. There's no arguing that they just beat Washington. 1621 01:31:32,680 --> 01:31:36,679 Speaker 1: There's nothing to talk about. Utah is number two. Give 1622 01:31:36,720 --> 01:31:38,800 Speaker 1: them a whole lot of credit. Still don't love their 1623 01:31:38,880 --> 01:31:43,519 Speaker 1: quarterback situation, but whatever, they are ranked number ten and 1624 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:45,959 Speaker 1: the a P pole. Now, this is a good football 1625 01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:49,000 Speaker 1: team who will need Tyler Hunley to be great when 1626 01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:52,720 Speaker 1: it matters the most. And number one the Oregon Ducks 1627 01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:56,200 Speaker 1: is they are the best football team in the backworld 1628 01:31:56,280 --> 01:31:58,320 Speaker 1: and they are the back twelve best chance to get 1629 01:31:58,320 --> 01:32:00,920 Speaker 1: into college football playoff. But they need you tall to 1630 01:32:00,960 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: keep winning out and you taught in in vice versa 1631 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:06,879 Speaker 1: as well. If they want to make the college football playoffs, 1632 01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:10,439 Speaker 1: they need Oregon to win out and then go beat them. 1633 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:13,000 Speaker 1: So that's the Power Ranking Tour this week.
