Speaker 1: Greetings, Welcome inside our three, The Jason Smith Show with

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: my bes friend Mike Harmon. Heha one playoff game down.

11
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: It was a thriller, twists and turns. Alabama beats Oklahoma

12
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: thirty four to twenty four. They move on to the

13
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: next round of the College football Playoff. Oklahoma goes home.

14
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: So many big shockers in this game, but we talked

15
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: about one of the big things a few minutes ago.

16
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: Sandell is the Gros Award winner best kicker in the country.

17
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: He misses a thirty six yard field goal and is

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: short on a fifty one yard field goal in the

19
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: last four and a half minutes, which helps Alabama clinch

20
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,559
Speaker 1: the win. And we mentioned this guy a few minutes ago,

21
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: and I said, what does Pete feutech say college kickers

22
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: chat chat Chaw. Joining us now on the hotline is

Speaker 1: all the picks, all the prognostications, chat chat Chaw. What's

26
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: happened at PETEFEU Tech.

27
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 3: I don't you know all these guys. All I kept

28
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: thinking was like, first of all, that kick, that first

29
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 3: kick was way close, Like, I get it, you're supposed

30
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 3: to hit that, but that looked awfully good for a while.

31
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 3: I got the right shot. And then I guess, in

32
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: the modern age, not being able to hit a fifty

33
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 3: one yarder. I mean, I know they're not the NFL

34
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 3: guys who are bombing him from seventy and stuff, but

35
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 3: it's fifty one yard. You're you're you know, you're well

36
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 3: paid college kicker. You should be able to get it there. Right.

37
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: Well, I feel like, well, I think it's probably in

38
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: his head the first kick. But honestly, that first kick,

39
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: like I get that, Okay, it's not reviewable because it's

40
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: above the goalpost, but like, okay, that's kind of where

41
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: we need reviews. But I think if they called it

42
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: good nobody would have complained. They could have called that

43
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: kick either way and it would have been okay, well,

44
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: he barely got it through and it's now a one

45
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: score game. They could have gone either way on that

46
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 1: and nobody would have said anything.

47
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 3: They got it right, it looked like it did go

48
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 3: over the top. It's a weird rule, and the whole

49
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 3: kicking thing to begin with is kind of a bizarre,

50
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 3: you know, twist we've kind of accepted as the norm,

51
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 3: but it's kind of an unnaturally strange thing that, you know,

52
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: here's this game that comes down to the guy who

53
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 3: looks like he's twelve years old and you know, you know,

54
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 3: kicks it and the ball goes one foot the other

55
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 3: way and all of a sudden everything changes. But that's

56
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 3: that's the game, and all right, kind of weird one.

57
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: But they weren't.

58
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 3: Even if he nails that, they're not winning it. So

59
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 3: it's look, this is a strange one. Like I don't

60
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 3: know what where this Bama team has been, and I

61
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 3: don't know if it's an indictment on the coaching staff

62
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 3: or the talent or the team, or just that the

63
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: SEC is just kind of and this is an SEC

64
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 3: versus the SEC game. This Bama team over the last

65
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: forty minutes hadn't been there for two months. I mean,

66
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 3: they they had no problems with the Tennessee team, but like,

67
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: they didn't play this well all year. I mean I

68
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 3: saw the Florida State game from the start. They had

69
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 3: to you know, they beat Georgia, but that they didn't

70
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 3: perform like this. That was just kind of okay, back

71
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 3: and forth, they pulled it off. But to do this,

72
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 3: I mean, to totally adjust and dominate, and then for

73
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: Oklahoma to turtle like it did, I mean, it's mojo

74
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 3: completely up the building after three straight plays, the dropped pass,

75
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 3: the Sean landetta and then the pick six, I mean,

76
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: and then.

77
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: That was it.

78
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 3: They didn't have anything else. They had no answers after that.

79
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 3: It was the strangest twitch of a college football game

80
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,119
Speaker 3: I can remember in a long, long time.

81
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 4: Fantastic reference going all the way back to the eighties

82
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 4: with the debt, uh Pete. You also talked about it

83
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 4: being a foot difference, you know in that field goal.

84
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 5: That's about all they averaged on the ground both teams.

85
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: What the hell?

86
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, It's it's kind of odd that, okay that you know, okay,

87
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 3: Matier was the only one running, but like it was

88
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 3: so strange because you could tell that John Mattier was

89
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 3: finally healthy. He was flinging it, he was throwing well,

90
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 3: and he looked confident. He was making plays. He's a

91
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 3: baller's baller, he's their best runner, and he looked healthy enough.

92
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 3: And you know, again, I guess the part of the

93
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 3: point was, all right, you're up seventeen nothing, and okay,

94
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 3: you're up seventeen seven and you're moving the ball. Well,

95
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 3: there's no way that defense, which has been dominant all year,

96
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 3: and with all their healthy pass rushers there, we're going

97
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 3: to you know, not be able to hold up. And

98
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 3: then again I think the pick six screwed them up.

99
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 3: They'd screwed it their heads. That drops past where Matier

100
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 3: could have run for forty yards. But I get it,

101
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 3: the guy was wide open. You throw it down the field,

102
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 3: guy's supposed to catch its getting ni own money too.

103
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 3: And then the weird punt. It just seemed like, all

104
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 3: of a sudden, like the mojo just completely shifted and

105
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 3: Oklahoma was utterly incapable of getting it back. It was

106
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 3: it was just like they forgot how to play and

107
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 3: they lost it.

108
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: So pete Caylen de boor wins when it looked like

109
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 1: it's seventeen to nothing, he would be saying go blue

110
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: in his postgame press conference. So, uh, what is Maybe

111
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: maybe bred Venables is now available, But like, what does

112
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 1: Michigan do now, Because clearly it looks like, hey, Caylen

113
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: de bor is gonna wind up stay at Alabama with

114
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: a win moving on in the playoff. He's got confidence

115
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: and the nil backers, I'm sure I have confidence in him.

116
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: What do they do now?

117
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 3: I never thought the Bor is going and I always

118
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: kind of thought it was an odd thought to begin

119
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 3: with that, Oh well, Michigan's is gonna get the Alabama coach. Like,

120
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 3: that's not really how this works. That's I said. I

121
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 3: said to the guys last week, there's no name that's

122
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 3: too crazy, but that one was. I I just never

123
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 3: saw why you would go, like, if Alabama doesn't want

124
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 3: him and Michigan does, or you just think you can

125
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: get the Michigan head coach who just played his team

126
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 3: played in the SEC championship in the College Football playoff,

127
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 3: that's not how the pecking order of the world works.

128
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: But I still think they're gonna go with someone who's

129
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 3: relatively boring, you know, Tommy Reese or somebody that I

130
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 3: still kind of shocked the jet Fish wasn't more of

131
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 3: a part of this. I thought he would be kind

132
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 3: of an instant yoink from Washington, but that didn't happen.

133
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 3: So it'll be an interesting call. There are lots of

134
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 3: you know, interesting guys out there. It's just as you know,

135
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 3: how creative do they want to get with this? So

136
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 3: at the moment, I think they're just trying to get

137
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 3: their stuff together and get their house in order, and

138
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 3: then they'll try to figure out, oh, yeah, we should

139
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 3: probably hire a football coach at some point too, above

140
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 3: all the other problems they're having within the internal you know,

141
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 3: athletic department stuff.

142
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 4: Right now, no question about we got three games tomorrow

143
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 4: bete the heavyweight battle Miami and Texas, A and M

144
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 4: A and M three point favorites, forty eight year total,

145
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 4: and now all eyes on Carson Beck and what Miami

146
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 4: has been able to do they get in and all

147
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,239
Speaker 4: the speculation and A and M on the other side,

148
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 4: their schedules come up quite a bit in the last

149
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 4: week or two.

150
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 5: So how does this play?

151
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 3: I still go with Miami. It's see my gut inta. I.

152
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: Then again, I thought Oklahoma would roll with these, and

153
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 3: I was hearing very smug for about the twenty minutes there,

154
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 3: so more than usual. And then yeah, I but this

155
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,679
Speaker 3: one is a harder one because I don't buy the sec.

156
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 3: I do think Miami's better, but Miami's not great on

157
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 3: the road this year, however, They've got so much NFL talent,

158
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 3: and it's kind of hard after you watch these just

159
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 3: incredibly awful bowl games so far, just horrible, just starts. O.

160
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: Pet you like the bowl game so far, you're a

161
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: big fan, I can tell.

162
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 3: Okay, last year they were great. Last year, all these

163
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 3: weird you know, donkey little boutique, you know, hipster underground

164
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 3: bowl games were actually really kind of good. This year

165
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: they're just bad. It's bad entertainment. It's bad. And then

166
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 3: you forget, oh yeah, the college football playoffs. This is

167
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 3: where you get real teams, good teams, and they're all

168
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 3: trying really hard. You know, they all have their full

169
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 3: they opt outs happening here. These are these are the guys.

170
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 3: So I think this is where Miami just sort of

171
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 3: turns it up a few notches. And again not totally

172
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: sold to Texas A and M is all that could

173
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,479
Speaker 3: remember Texas A and M they all off to Texas,

174
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 3: didn't play Alabama, Georgia, Old Myths or Oklahoma. I think

175
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 3: they're missing someone else big too, but like they didn't

176
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 3: play all the good teams this year, so I'm kind

177
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 3: of curious to see it. But I'm not as strong

178
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: on this one as I usually am on stuff. But

179
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 3: I'm gonna stick with Miami call because it just seems

180
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 3: like the narratives like, Okay, you got in you know this,

181
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 3: win this all.

182
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: Right, Pete. The other games tomorrow to Lane and ole Miss. Look,

183
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: ole Miss is playing on emotion, James Madison and Oregon. Anyway,

184
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: we don't see Oregon and ole Miss moving on in

185
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: either of these games.

186
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a huge way we can see this. They

187
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 3: not see this happening because no one's gonna watch it.

188
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 3: Like literally, no one's going to see this happening. So

189
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 3: like like everyone's gonna watch their fantasy teams or you

190
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 3: know they're gonna see They're gonna sit there and watch

191
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 3: the Eagles Commanders and they're definitely gonna watch Packers Bears,

192
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 3: and you know, maybe it's you know, if multiview works,

193
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 3: you can you work it out where you can get

194
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 3: to both games. But I don't know anyone who's gonna

195
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: willingly watch these two games. I mean, you'll tune in

196
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 3: just to see if it's interesting. I kind of think

197
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 3: I could see either way happening with the old Miss

198
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 3: killing it, where Ole Miss just gets way tight and

199
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 3: they're just like, oh, we're gonna prove everything and they

200
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 3: just play bad and they start the ball over. Or

201
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 3: I could see him being like, oh, screw you, Lan Kiff,

202
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 3: and then come out and hang sixty four on the board.

203
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 3: So I'm going to go with the ladder a little bit.

204
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 3: I think, I actually do think Tulane's gonna hang around

205
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 3: for a while and then Ole Miss will finally pull

206
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 3: away and cover and do all that fun stuff later.

207
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 3: But I think I think that might be a little

208
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 3: bit of a battle. I will be floored if Oregon

209
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 3: doesn't come out and just put it to just be

210
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 3: insulted by this game thing. This is a take from

211
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 3: all indications there. It's been quite kind of quiet that

212
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 3: they're still a little upset over the way they played

213
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 3: and got rocked in that Rose Bowl last year when

214
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 3: they were the number one overall seed and you know,

215
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 3: the Ohio State came in and just took it to them.

216
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 3: That's that's an embarrassing thing. That's kind of a motivating factor.

217
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 3: And I don't I think they're gonna see one of

218
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 3: those tone setting type of things happen where it might

219
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: not just be explosive and but it'll be methodical and

220
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 3: I do bad balance, too sharp, too good, and James

221
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,319
Speaker 3: Madison will give it the college try for a little while.

222
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 3: Maybe they'll score. But if you like point totals, I

223
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 3: would not be stunned if Oregon just handled it all

224
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 3: by itself.

225
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 4: Forty six is the total minus twenty and a half

226
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 4: Oregon Duftay Moore two thirty three and a half passing yards.

227
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 5: What do you think?

228
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 3: Maybe they're but but I don't know if they're gonna

229
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 3: throw that much. If it's I think it'll be more

230
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 3: balanced and they're not gonna sit him too. So I'm

231
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 3: actually not a fan of that as much because they're

232
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 3: just gonna keep running in short, midrange games. And you know, look,

233
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 3: James Madison's got a good defense. You know, their run

234
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 3: defense statistically is awesome. They have guys they have. They

235
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 3: kind of help Louisville in check from not doing much anything.

236
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 3: But this Oregon thing is just gonna be a different

237
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 3: animal at this point.

238
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: All right, Pete. Lastly, we'll see Alabama again on New

239
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: Year's Day when they take on Indiana. Indiana as a

240
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: six and a half point favorite. Right now, I know

241
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 1: it's early. We just watched Alabama just watching play the

242
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: best forty minutes the last couple of months. Does Alabama

243
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: have a shot in this game?

244
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 3: Well, according to the first half of the Oklahoma versus

245
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 3: Indiana preview, I wrote this wrap. Yeah, I said, yeah,

246
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 3: of course, you know, it's at the end of the

247
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: I'm still one of those people that like, I know,

248
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 3: I know, you're not supposed to say this, and aha,

249
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 3: it's still Indiana. There's part of me it's still is

250
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 3: not quite there. I mean, just it's it's a great story.

251
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 3: They're great cooks, but Alabama's got more talent, you know,

252
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 3: They've just they've got the guys. That's not the problem

253
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 3: with this team. It just they haven't played up to it.

254
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 3: Of course, Indiana is going to be great, but look

255
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,839
Speaker 3: at tonight it almost seemed like once they got down

256
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 3: ty Simpson got good because he's like, Okay, well we're

257
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 3: supposed to get boat raced again, we just did that

258
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 3: against Georgia, and now we're getting killed here. And then

259
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 3: he kind of found it a little bit. The team

260
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 3: sort of played up to its attitude and they're the

261
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 3: under They're gonna be the underdog at this They're gonna

262
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 3: we hear about Alabama and the Heisman winner and all that.

263
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 3: I'm gonna pick Indiana, but it's I'm this is not

264
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 3: a guarantee. I was gonna easily pick Indiana over Oklahoma.

265
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 3: I'm not so sure because that Bama team that showed

266
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 3: up over the second forty minutes of this game, or

267
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 3: the flat Foy miss of this game, it ends up

268
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 3: in Pasadena. Yeah, they're not gonna run it at all.

269
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 3: So it's kind of an easy team to defend if

270
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 3: you just got to get the ty Simpson. But I

271
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 3: wouldn't put it pass them. I'll pick Indiana right now,

272
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 3: but I'm not the thousand percent sold on it.

273
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 4: Pete, you're thinking about accidentally publishing that Oklahoma Indiana.

274
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 3: We gould Actually, you know what, it'll probably get more

275
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 3: break through. It'll wun the sdo and to get a

276
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 3: lot more hits than whatever it is. I'm gonna come

277
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 3: up with the next hour and a half.

278
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:54,040

Speaker 2: No, but how great was it?

292
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 5: He's like, yeah, I started right. I mean it was

293
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 5: seventeen nothing, Alabama did nothing.

294
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 4: I walked in, I had Ian and Brianna were in

295
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 4: the back, and I'm like, man, I was really hoping

296
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 4: for a game.

297
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: This stinks.

298
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 5: They're about to get boat raced.

299
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 4: And then just like that, we we had all of

300
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 4: the chaos that we've been chronicling over these last two

301
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 4: hours where it's like tale of two halves, football karma,

302
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 4: Christmas miracle, whatever you want to call it. It was

303
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 4: just insane and Oklahoma in front of their hole crowd.

304
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 4: I mean, I loved all the crowd shots. It's like

305
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 4: everybody just mouths a gape, like you're looking at people

306
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 4: at a horror.

Speaker 1: putting this content out for you every single night. Well,

336
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: two big knockouts tonight in the world of sports. One

337
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: we'll get to in a few minutes. As Oklahoma looked

338
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: like they were throwing the first knockout punch against Alabama. However,

339
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: a bad misplay on a punt opens the door for

340
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: the Alabama comeback. They score twenty seven unanswered and they

341
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: beat the Sooners thirty four to twenty four. They move

342
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: on New Year's Day, they'll take on Indiana Gain. We'll

343
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: have more on this coming up in a couple of minutes,

344
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: but another big knockout just for a couple minutes, just

345
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: because Mike this always I'm stunned about this every single

346
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: time that he fights.

347
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 6: Uh.

348
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 1: Anthony Joshua knocked out Jake Paul tonight in the sixth round. Uh.

349
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: It was a longer fight than a lot of people thought, Like,

350
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: I didn't see it. We're watching the college football game.

351
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: But you know, look, Netflix has a you know, a

352
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: big hit on their hands. Jake Paul tries to fight.

353
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,919
Speaker 1: According to reports that that Jake Paul just tried to

354
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: clutch his way through, realizing realizing very early that hey,

355
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 1: oh boy, this guy's a lot different than some of

356
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: the other guys. I thought, hey go, it's like an

357
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: out a second. And Anthony Joshua knocks him out in

358
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: the sixth round. He calls out Tyson Fury. Uh following

359
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: the the end of the fight, and uh, you see

360
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: Jake Paul going down to defeat. And this is how

361
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: it sounded just a few moments ago on Netflix. And

362
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: even if he does.

363
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: That shot much, he's gonna happen.

364
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: Here and it almost there's left.

365
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 2: Hey no, and he have taken.

366
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 5: A little bit longer than everyone.

367
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 6: Expected, but a j gets a ko it round just six.

368
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: Yes, it was just like Ali Frasier. Uh. You know

369
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: the thing, the thing that I get, Mike, and I

370
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: can't believe this is that I can't get over the

371
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: audience that is out there for Jake Paul fights. Like

372
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: I've told from the beginning, I can't believe he gets

373
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: the attention that he does. The guy's a social media influencer,

374
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: decided I could be a boxer, and then he trained

375
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: a little bit. Look, and I give him credit for

376
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: training and staying in the ring against these guys, But

377
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: like all of us, how is there a big audience

378
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: to watch him in curiosity against boxers against fighters and

379
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: Anthony Joshua clearly the best fighter he has fought at

380
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: this point in his career. Joshua doesn't make quick work

381
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 1: of him, and you wonder how much maybe Anthony Joshua

382
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: could have won this fight a lot earlier. But people

383
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 1: are trying to get their money's worth. You put this

384
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: on Netflix, you want a few rounds again. Part of

385
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: the reason why I look at this and I go, man,

386
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: I just can't understand the the the viewership and the

387
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 1: support and the interest in Jake Paul's box, and I

388
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: have absolutely zero interest in it. And I can't understand

389
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: people that go crazy over these fights. I just can't.

390
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, we added on in the producer's studio, and I

391
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 4: would check in from time to time and obviously on

392
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 4: social media while we're watching the college football playoff game,

393
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 4: a little bit of NBA action, you know, he's cycling

394
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 4: in and checking out the reviews of it. A lot

395
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 4: of it was Joshua. He looks disinterested and he's just

396
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 4: standing around. Man, he's washed. He's terrible, you know, kind

397
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 4: of like Alabama in the first half. Gosh so and

398
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden it's like, all right, time

399
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,479
Speaker 4: to go to work. You realize the rumored purse of

400
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 4: this is he's one hundred and eighty four million dollars.

401
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 4: I guess that's what was floating about here from The

402
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 4: Independent and from other publications, that that they are each

403
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 4: walking away with at least eighty million dollars.

404
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. If you said to me,

405
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: I'll give you free tickets and a flight back and

406
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: forth to Miami, I'll give you spending money, and I'll

407
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: give you a hotel and you can spend the whole week,

408
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 1: and I would go, Yeah, do I really want to

409
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: go do that? I mean, really that's what I would like.

410
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: Do I really want to go do that? I can't

411
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: fathom the popularity that this guy has. I mean, I

412
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: don't know if it's inflated popularity. I don't know, if

413
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: it's bots. I don't know. Maybe he did. People just

414
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 1: really like and there's more people that have an appetite

415
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 1: for this than I think. But I just have a

416
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 1: hard time believing that he's this popular and the audiences

417
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,479
Speaker 1: for his fights are big and people still care about

418
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: him fighting going on when these are just exhibitions and

419
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: it's a and I get that it's kind of a

420
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: it's somewhat of a social experiment where here's a guy

421
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 1: who's a YouTube inflow, I'm going to train myself to

422
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: be a boxer. All that does is make boxers look bad,

423
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: because if a dude can show up and just say hey,

424
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: I'm on YouTube and now I can box. It's one

425
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: thing to say, hey, I'm young and I can you know,

426
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: I'm seventeen, but I can make the cut for the

427
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: US Open in golf. Some things I get, okay a

428
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: little embarrassing, but I understand, but man to show up

429
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: and say, yeah, I could go be a boxer and

430
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 1: I could do it, and I could do it somewhat successfully.

431
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: I really it just it just it passes understanding for me.

432
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 1: It's it's just a whole it's a mystery for me,

433
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: this whole thing with Jake Paul.

434
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 4: Well, but it's the bridge sports entertainment chaos in the

435
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 4: social media world that we live in. Right, there's a

436
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 4: lot of folks that make bank on TikTok, twitch and

437
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,959
Speaker 4: or whatever else that I might accidentally see a second

438
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 4: of and then one of my daughters will tell me, yeah,

439
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 4: that guy reportedly made twenty million dollars last year. You know,

440
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,239
Speaker 4: it's like, okay, it's not my cup of tea, but

441
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 4: you know, not everything's made for you know, a little

442
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 4: fifty plus year old Mikey Harmon, Right, And this is

443
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 4: one of them, all Right, I enjoy a good boxing bout,

444
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,919
Speaker 4: and we've had plenty of that. The legends fight well

445
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 4: beyond their prime. And guess what they get an audience,

446
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 4: whether it's that they are hoping to see glimpses, Right,

447
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 4: it's Tiger Woods showing up at a golf event. You're

448
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 4: hoping to see shades of what once was great, recognizing

449
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 4: that it's probably not gonna be that or your hate

450
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 4: watching and you want to see him get his ass kicked, which, well,

451
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 4: I want to see him. So he loses here clutching

452
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 4: and grabbing and wheezing and certainly not in the cardio

453
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 4: shape that you need to be. And once you get

454
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 4: to the fifth or sixth round that was apparent.

455
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean, but like I said, I always

456
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: want I wanted to see him lose because I I

457
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: can't believe it was a story and there I want

458
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: to see the guy lose that you it's it's kind

459
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: of making a mockery of boxing. And I just wasn't

460
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: just not a fan, but I look, I respect his popularity.

461
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: I just don't get it. But see, I just don't

462
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 1: like to.

463
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 5: Me and I don't think it makes a mockery of it.

464
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 4: Like if if that's the case, then it's all the

465
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 4: people that are voting with their eyes and dollars that

466
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,199
Speaker 4: are making the mockery of it, not him. Right, you

467
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 4: get gets himself into reasonable shape, and you have all

468
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 4: degrees of boxing events, right, it's like, you know, my

469
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 4: love of wrestling, the indie cards if you can get

470
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 4: one in your local town. You got people that are

471
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 4: busting their ass trying to break through. Boxing is the

472
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 4: same way, right, It's all a matter of levels. And

473
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 4: he came in the side door. It's no different than

474
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 4: our business.

475
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: Right.

476
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 5: You know, you play as at.

477
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 4: A high level college, pro pro sports, you might get

478
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 4: a second bite, third bite of the apple. Is what

479
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 4: we've been talking about with the NFL draft, Not that

480
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 4: you didn't do the work, right, I mean it's all eventually,

481
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 4: you gotta do the work, but you get to you know,

482
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 4: pass go early on. Right, it's the NFL Draft, Like,

483
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 4: all right, you got that first round draft game grade,

484
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 4: you're probably gonna get to a second or third bite

485
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 4: before you're out of the out of the game. Right,

486
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 4: someone's gonna think they're gonna fix you here. You got

487
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 4: a big audience social media, and you know they do

488
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 4: it the background check Veracity figure out what the percentage

489
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 4: of bots is, fraudulents, whatever. But if there's advertisers that's

490
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 4: behind it, it's no less fraudulent than anything else.

491
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 1: Yeah no, But but you hit on what what gets

492
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: me again? Why I don't understand the popularity is that

493
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: we get in sports. That's the one thing that that

494
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: that we have that I think people sometimes don't understand

495
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: is that we have the highest level of sport anywhere

496
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: in the world except for soccer, right the NFL, Major

497
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: League Baseball, the NBA, the NHL. It's the highest level

498
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: of sport that we get. Why are minor league sports

499
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: not popular? Because, well, it's not the highest level. It's

500
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: not the star it's it's not it's not the best

501
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: football that you can see. It's not the best basketball

502
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: that you can see. It's not the best baseball you

503
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: can see. Right, So so there, stuff like spring leagues

504
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: and in football have a tough time breaking through. Minor

505
00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: league baseball is very regional to where you are. This

506
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 1: is boxing, and it's not nearly at the highest level.

507
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: This is just a dude, right. This is not somebody

508
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: who's turned himself into a great boxer and he's fighting

509
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: and he's gonna win the WBC title, you know, or

510
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 1: win the heavyweight titles. This is a lower level of

511
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: boxing that somehow people have decided yes, I want to

512
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: see it, right, I mean I really And that's what

513
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: I scratch my head and I go, I don't get

514
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 1: why at a lower level of a sport with a

515
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 1: guy that nobody knew who he is, who's a social

516
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: media guy. In fights that I mean, you know, how

517
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: much are they holding each other up for a few rounds?

518
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: How much did Anthony Joshua hold him up for five rounds? Right? Again,

519
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: I didn't see the fight. I'm just saying, well, Anthony Joshua,

520
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: if it was this big a deal and Jake Paul

521
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: looked a loss, probably could have ended it earlier. But

522
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 1: again I didn't see it, so I'm not gonna pretend

523
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: I did. But overall, I don't get the popularity is

524
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: something that when we're used to the best of the best,

525
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: that we say, yeah, I'm okay for this, which is

526
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 1: not nearly close to what the best is.

527
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean to put it in perspective, right, Tyson Fury,

528
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 4: he's calling him out. He hasn't boxed since last December.

529
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.

530
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 4: So, like when we talk about names and whatever else,

531
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 4: I mean, think about all those the end of the

532
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 4: run for Floyd Mayweather, he did a lot of dancing

533
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 4: in the ring and didn't do a whole hell of

534
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 4: a lot of boxing, but he was called a brilliant tactician.

535
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: That's is that guy. He's a brilliant tactician. Oh that

536
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: means okay, brilliant technics.

537
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 5: But you put the name there and everybody said, take

538
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 5: my money.

539
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 4: Same thing here, right, you had a full arena and

540
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 4: they add by and if nothing else, he gave everybody

541
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 4: a Chappelle special and uh an opportunity to maybe get

542
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 4: some good jokes.

543
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: Exit out bout a Fresca, exit swollen down the Jason

544
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: Smith Show with my best friend Mike Rmedy. I just

545
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: don't get as popular, and I don't know what's I

546
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: know he's gonna come up next because I know people

547
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: are gonna say, oh, look at Jake Paul. He was

548
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: able to fight Anthony Joshua for so long, you know,

549
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: five rounds into the sixth round. Now let's see what

550
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: he can do against somebody. And there's gonna be another fight.

551
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: Like I was hoping this is gonna but it says

552
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 1: to me, oh no, look he's gonna fight somebody else. Now, okay, great, great,

553
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna.

554
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 5: I want to see him train and go hang with

555
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 5: his brother in the WWE.

556
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 4: He can be half the athlete his brother is, then

557
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 4: pretty damn good tearing team, because they're both pretty good

558
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 4: on the mic, whether you agree or like them at all.

559
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: WWE is different. And if this is a whole thing

560
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 1: for Jake Paul to eventually go to the WWE, I

561
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: get it. Man, he'd be a great heel in the WWE.

562
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: My goodness, man, he'd go in there and he would

563
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: be insanely popular. And that I understand, because you know,

564
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: WWE is not quite the same as boxing.

565
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 5: I understand that this is supposed to be an exhibit.

566
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: This was an exhibition towel, so.

567
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 5: You knew we'd get to do convention.

568
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: Rock should have thrown the towel, man, Apollo would have lived.

569
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 1: Sorry spoiler, But like that I get. But like, if

570
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: he's doing that to get to the ww but I

571
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 1: can't believe the WWE hasn't called him already.

572
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 4: But oh, he ain't gonna make that kind of money

573
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 4: in the WWE. He gonna do this until he can't walk, man,

574
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 4: are you kidding me? Until he can't physically stand there

575
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 4: and hug a guy or throw an occasional punch. If

576
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 4: that the reports you're true, I mean one hundred and

577
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 4: eighty four million dollars that's split between two guys and

578
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 4: whoever they you know, slap off a couple of bucks.

579
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 4: Two out of the corner. Man, Come on, Don King's

580
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 4: not taking all that money. No that Netflix stock man. Hey,

581
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 4: gotta get.

582
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: It now all you can get it, crazy man. We

583
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 1: got more coming up in ninety seconds. But first time

584
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: to find out what's trending in the wide world of sports.

585
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: And someone who's been called the Ivan Drago of Fox

586
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: Sports Radio in the eighties, he couldn't pass the steroid

587
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: test either. It's Steve Desager.

588
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 7: Jason, I will break you. I'm boxing tonight anyway. Fight

589
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 7: at Miami. Anthony Joshua knocked out Jake Paul in the

590
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 7: sixth round and Unklahoma was knocked down at home. The

591
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 7: opener of the college football Playoff went to Alabama in

592
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 7: a comeback thirty four to twenty four. So Alabama, in

593
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 7: its college football playoff history, has a record of ten

594
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 7: and five. Oklahoma is zero to five all time. It

595
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 7: has never won a playoff game. And the Alabama offense

596
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 7: had twelve drives and only twelve first downs tonight and

597
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 7: scored thirty four points and won the game. Bama was

598
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 7: down seventeen to nothing early second quarter and had no

599
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 7: first downs at that time. Alabama goes to the Rose

600
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 7: Bowl quarterfinal against number one Indiana. The other three first

601
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 7: round games are on Saturday. By the way, the two

602
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 7: playoff games that are given to TNT for tomorrow are

603
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 7: two Lane at Old Miss, Mississippi beat two Lane forty

604
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 7: five to ten during the season, and then James Madison

605
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 7: at Oregon, also opposite an NFL game on Fox TV.

606
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: How excited is TNT to have those games? Team? How

607
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: excited today to have those games?

608
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 7: Same as last year, they get about half the ratings

609
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 7: of the quote. Real first round games NFL on Fox

610
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 7: TV has Philadelphia at Washington and then Green Bay at Chicago. Eagles,

611
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 7: by the way, can clinch the division title with a

612
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 7: win on Saturday. No teams won the NFC East in

613
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 7: back to back years since Philly over twenty years ago.

614
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 7: Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson will remain on IR he's

615
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 7: out for the season. Rams wide out Devonte Adams is

616
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,760

656
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: and I you know, and I just kept thinking today,

657
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, seeing the seeing, you know, all that stuff

658
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: going on next in Major League Baseball and what's next

659
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: to cars? I'm like, what what what are the Mets

660
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: gonna do? Who's the outfield they're gonna get? Are they

661
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: gonna spend for Bellingers? Are gonna be a big trade?

662
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: And I just keep going back to thinking, you know,

663
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: and I saw today someone wrote the Red's entire payroll

664
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: is was like one hundred and nineteen million dollars and

665
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: like like two years of Juan Soto is more than

666
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: than their entire payroll. And I'm saying to myself, how

667
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: did we get a guy? How did we just add

668
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: a guy to the team that finished third in MVP

669
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: voting and we were worse than a year ago and

670
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: didn't even make the playoffs. Like I was, all of

671
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 1: a sudden, I was depressed again.

672
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 7: Just think of all those runs he's gonna score in

673
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 7: this coming year when he piles up the walks and

674
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 7: has and has who betting behind him?

675
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: Exactly? The off season is not over yet, Steve we

676
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 1: have some time to go. Just wait, do we have.

677
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 7: The tape of after the Mets lost their closer? And

678
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 7: that's way I trust the front office. This is not done.

679
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 7: We're going to later that same day.

705
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: The night goes to Alabama Oklahoma a seventeen to nothing

706
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: lead in the second quarter of this game, and Kylen

707
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: de Bor had his bags packed from Michigan possibly but

708
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: a biffed pun attempt a pick six, a tie game

709
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: at halftime, and Alabama throws the hammer down in the

710
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: second half. Look, we talked to Pete Futack earlier this hour.

711
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 1: He says, this Alabama team hasn't been around for two months,

712
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: and here they are tonight, a big effort against Oklahoma

713
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: and part of a positivity Friday here. You know, we've

714
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 1: talked about this guy a little bit in the news,

715
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: mainly the last two weeks as well. If Alabama loses

716
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: in the playoff, Kaylen de Bor is gonna be the

717
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: next head coach at University of Michigan. And the thing is,

718
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: if he lost tonight, you think that wasn't gonna happen.

719
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,439
Speaker 1: You think that that the nil backers at Alabama wouldn't say, Hey,

720
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: this hasn't worked, let's get him out. We need somebody else.

721
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, Michigan say okay, we'll take him.

722
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 1: But an appreciation moment for a guy that has had

723
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: an incredibly rough time at Alabama, he goes in his

724
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: first year, doesn't go exactly how you'd expect, or on

725
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: the outside looking into the playoff this year, they kind

726
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,240
Speaker 1: of squeak in. Everybody hated the beginning of the season,

727
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: loved Kaylen de boor in the middle of the season,

728
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 1: hated him at the end of the season, couldn't wait

729
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: to get him out. But coming through the big win

730
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,760
Speaker 1: and now not only is he not going to Michigan,

731
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: he's probably won a lot of people to his side.

732
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: And I got news for you, Alabama, Indiana is gonna

733
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: be a rock fight. Like this is not gonna be said, well, yeah,

734
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 1: Alabama's lost three games. Let's see what Indiana looks like

735
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: as the big overwhelming favorite after having a month with

736
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 1: a Heisman Trophy winner. Let's see what Indiana is made of.

737
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: But all sorts of congratulatory and appreciation wont for Kaylin

738
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 1: de Boor, who's got to be feeling really good at

739
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: this point because he went from Hey, I'm in an

740
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: impossible situation to take over for Nick. Say, but now

741
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: he took the money, took the job. You can't say,

742
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 1: I can't say, oh, you know you like you got

743
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 1: dragged to it. You couldn't do it, but still, you know,

744
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: you want to be able a little bit of a

745
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 1: honeymoon period, a little bit of a let's let this

746
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: guy get, get his players in and let him cook.

747
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,959
Speaker 1: There was none of that. They wanted him out last

748
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 1: year when he couldn't beat teams that were good. They

749
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: wanted him out. Early this year he won people over

750
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: a little bit, then they wanted him out again. And

751
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 1: now he's there with a big playoff win over Oklahoma

752
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 1: and they're playing on New Year's Day, and this has

753
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: got to be incredibly gratifying and satisfying for Kaylen de Bor.

754
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just the chaos theory of where we're at

755
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 4: in the college football world. Right. Everything is subject to speculation.

756
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 4: If you wait five minutes, there's a new story and

757
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 4: a new angle and twist of things, right, the Michigan

758
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 4: job coming open, the number of coaches that shuffled up

759
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 4: and dealt or realizing that suddenly there were a couple

760
00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 4: of big jobs in the marketplace, that you had the

761
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 4: leverage to get an extra paycheck, to get an extra

762
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 4: couple of years, to get a giant bonus signed and

763
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 4: tacked on, to have some level of stability. It's just

764
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 4: a it's good for the coaching game in that regard, right,

765
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 4: when you have the Penn State and a Michigan subtenly

766
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 4: become open as the season goes on, or once the

767
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 4: season's actually been concluded, right in this particular case, when

768
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 4: you look at that, but for Debor and his overall

769
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 4: coaching record is ridiculously good, and you're being matched and

770
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 4: marked to a standard that's really difficult. The fact that

771
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 4: Saban's on TV every week does not help matters, because

772
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 4: it's constantly in your face. It's one thing if he

773
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 4: was out on a fishing boat just hanging out with

774
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 4: Jimmy Johnson at this point, yeah, But instead he's there.

775
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 4: He's chiming in on the playoffs, on the teams, on

776
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 4: the particulars, on the players, whatever else that, you know,

777
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 4: it just lends that extra juice to any of the

778
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 4: boosters that may have reason to want him out right,

779
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 4: the standard has been so high. We talked about it,

780
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 4: and Steve gave you some of the particulars when you

781
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,839
Speaker 4: talk about playoff history and what they've been able to do.

782
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,799
Speaker 4: That when you get there and you can make the

783
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 4: argument should or shouldn't have. And after the first half,

784
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 4: certainly saw plenty of Notre Dames stands jumping into the mix,

785
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 4: all of them hitting that beep beep beep backing up motion.

786
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 4: As that second half went on and you saw what

787
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 4: de Boor and the offense was. As soon as they

788
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 4: there was an opening, they jumped on it and never

789
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 4: looked back. You know.

790
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: And here's the crazy part, right, this is where college

791
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: football you got to get It changes daily. If Debor

792
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: loses this game, they would have wanted him out right,

793
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: I know they, oh, hey, we like Caylen Debor. If

794
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: they lost this game to Oklahoma again second time this year,

795
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 1: everybody would have wanted him out. Now, let's just say

796
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: they beat Indiana, They're gonna want to give him a

797
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,799
Speaker 1: contract extension. That's the everyday craziness of college football. They

798
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: win that game, So Kaylen de Bors, our guy got

799
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,360
Speaker 1: the right guy. This is fantastic like that, This is

800
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: I mean college football changes every five minutes, and it

801
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 1: trickles down from the top to nil to transfer to

802
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: how people feel about their coaches from game to game. Man,

803
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 1: I mean they would have wanted am out if they

804
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: win one more game and it's let's get more money.

805
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: Let's let we gotta what we got to increase the

806
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: buyout for Kaylin to Bor. We can't let somebody else

807
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 1: come and get them. We had to increase the buyouce

808
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: and we keep this guy. One more win.

809
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 4: Would do that if only we get the transcripts of

810
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,800
Speaker 4: all of the big boosters when they were down seventeen

811
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 4: to nothing.

812
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: Hey wait a minute, sent you a text a little

813
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: too early. Let's wait and see how this plays out.
