Our thoughts and prayers go out 53 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: to Austin Eckler. Going to be interesting to see what 54 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: he decides to do. That's a tough injury to get 55 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: at this stage of his career the achilles, and we'll see. 56 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: I can't imagine, Mikey, you've gotten to know Austin pretty well, 57 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: I can't imagine that's the way Austin decides to go 58 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: out like he will rehab that thing. He will rehab 59 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: it very very hard, because that's how he does things. 60 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 3: He takes everything very very seriously. 61 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: And I can't imagine that that's the way he's gonna 62 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: want his career to end. 63 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 5: Austin is not the kind of guy that's gonna let 64 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 5: anything tell him it's over. 65 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 4: He's going to. 66 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 3: Decide it's over when I say it's over. 67 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 4: It's over when I say it's over. 68 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 5: And the problem is, and as much as I believe 69 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 5: in Austin, I worry that he'll have a mark on 70 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 5: him and NFL owners gms will look at it as 71 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 5: now you're too old and you have the injury. 72 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 4: I'm not paying you right. 73 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: Well, we'll see, And we were supposed to have Austin 74 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: on today, but naturally he had to reschedule to attend 75 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: to what it is that's going on with his achilles. 76 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,119 Speaker 1: I think one of the stories, or the story really 77 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: from last night. We all knew that Green Bay was 78 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: going to be a good football team with or without 79 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. They are just better with Micaeh Parsons. And 80 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, we talked about this with Chris Simms yesterday. 81 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: I'd like to see the Packers record if those two, 82 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: Jordan Love and Michaeh Parsons are able to play seventeen games. 83 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: I'd like to see where that team ends up. But 84 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: I think the more interesting thing is Washington and just 85 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: over the first two weeks, how an ept that offense 86 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: has looked because Mikey it was not an impressive win 87 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: over the Giants at Week one, and yesterday or night 88 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: they're blown out by the Green Bay Packers, and Jayden 89 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: Daniels looks a little bit off. 90 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 3: I gotta be honest. 91 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: It doesn't look like the same Jayden Daniels in the 92 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: same offense we saw a year ago with Washington to 93 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: get a team. 94 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 3: Who went to the fucking NFC championship game. 95 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, And the thing you really worry about with Jaden 96 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 5: Daniels is he was on the floor a lot. 97 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 4: He was on the ground a lot. 98 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 5: And you just any coach, an f anybody will tell 99 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 5: you getting your quarterback hit and hit a lot is 100 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 5: the quickest way to ruin a season. 101 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, they put up twenty one in the first 102 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: game eighteen they haven't scored more than twenty one points, like, 103 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: and they were garbage touchdowns, like when they scored last night, 104 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: the game was pretty much over. 105 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 3: You know, Green Bay had that game lot up. 106 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 2: Still with that Commander's touchdown. There are certain things that 107 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,799 Speaker 2: you have kind of been on where if it happens 108 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: in sports, like people their first thought is you and 109 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 2: that happened last night? I think where it's like, for example, 110 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 2: like if Clayton Kershaw has a bad game in the playoffs, 111 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,679 Speaker 2: everybody immediately runs to Twitter to be like, Steve Gotts 112 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 2: was right. When zach Ertz scored that touchdown, people were 113 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: running to be like, hey, zach Ertz, he still got it? 114 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 3: Really? 115 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: Yea that what they were running to do? Yes, yes, 116 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: did I say zach Ertz still had it? 117 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 2: He is a first ballot Hall of Famer on the 118 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 2: still got It team? 119 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: Who else is on that team? Who's the first ballot 120 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer still got It team? I thought that 121 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: when DeAndre Hopkins made that one hand to get he's 122 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills and then they lost Keenan Allen. 123 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: Oh, Keenan Allen. Yeah, still something left in the tank. 124 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 4: Yes, well Rogers. 125 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 3: Of course, Rogers has a lot left in the tank. 126 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: Listen, I'm telling you right now, if Aaron Rodgers is 127 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: still playing quarterback. 128 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 3: For the Steelers when he's fifty, I won't be surprised. 129 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 4: I won't just to beat Brady. 130 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: He's got full tank. 131 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: Yes, he's already a top five Steelers quarterback of all time. 132 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: He's a top five Jets quarterback of all time, and 133 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: he's a top five. 134 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 3: Packers quarterback of all time. Of course, go ahead, Taylor. 135 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: I could see that Aaron Rodgers situation playing out. It 136 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 2: was like when the Yankees try to bring Roger Clemens 137 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 2: back out of retirement. They were basically like, hey, you 138 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 2: could only play in home games if you want, Like, 139 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 2: you don't have to do the whole traveling. We just 140 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 2: need you here for a couple of spots. Aaron Rodgers 141 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: spot is just against the Jets. He just comes back 142 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 2: every year to play the Jets and have that revenge game. 143 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,799 Speaker 3: You don't want him against Seattle, is that what you're saying? Right? 144 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: Wait, so this year he plays the full compliment of 145 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: games you're saying every other year moving forward, he just 146 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: plays against the Jets and Mike. 147 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 2: He had the point, the Packers he only plays and 148 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 2: the Bears. There's a certain list of teams where Aaron 149 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: Rodgers he's gonna get up for no matter what. And 150 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,559 Speaker 2: that's maybe how you preserve the longevity of his career. 151 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: Okay, so, but but you have to put him inside 152 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: the AFC East if that were the case. 153 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 3: So are you saying that the Bills. 154 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: Should should sign Aaron Rodgers and like, for instance, this week, 155 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: they would sit Josh Allen because Josh Allen might get hurt. 156 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: You don't want to risk injury to your star quarterback. 157 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: You go with Aaron Rodgers just to beat the Jets 158 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: this week because you know he's gonna do it right, Yeah, 159 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: you know he's like a special Like, yes, put it 160 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: on the pole. Should the Bills sign Aaron Rodgers just 161 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: to play against the Jets next year? 162 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 3: Maybe the Dolphins, shit, they need a quarterback. 163 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 4: He'd be an upgrade. 164 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: Would Aaron be an upgrade over Tua? Put that on 165 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: the pole as well? Would Aaron Rodgers being he'd be 166 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: an upgrade over Drake May. Aaron Rodgers that's all I'm saying. 167 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: He's still got a lot left in the tag. He's 168 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: got a full take A guess, Aaron Rodgers would be 169 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: an upgrade over Drake May and you be an upgrade 170 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: over Tua. In fact, I think if you look across 171 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: the landscape of the NFL, Aaron Rodgers would be an 172 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: upgrade in most places. Would Aaron Rodgers being up Mikey? 173 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: Would Aaron Rodgers being upgrade in Dallas? 174 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 4: No?

Mike Golic 397 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: has weaseled out of this interview. He decided coach to 398 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: go interview Baker Mayfield because he's afraid of. 399 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,239 Speaker 3: Texas A and M and Mike Elco. How about that? 400 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, well we miss him. We like getting on this show. 401 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 7: We like the opportunity to visit with you guys, and 402 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 7: obviously assumed anytime we play Notre Dame that that I'd 403 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 7: be on some show that featured a golick somehow. 404 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 1: So some I'm like, well, listen, when you beat him, 405 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: he will be here to take his beating. 406 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 7: Okay, I'll make them So maybe next week I'll be back. 407 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: On Okay, that would be fantastic. How is the second season? 408 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: I'm just wondering the difference. I know you're familiar with 409 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: the university, but I'm wondering the second season as opposed 410 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: to the first season. 411 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 3: It has to be easier, right. 412 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I think it's a massive difference. If 413 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 7: you think of any startup business company, endevor you've ever 414 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,239 Speaker 7: kind of taken part in the amount of work that 415 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 7: goes into year one getting everything up off the ground, 416 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 7: establishing culture, establishing the way you want to do things. 417 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 7: You know, there's just so much to get accomplished, and oh, 418 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 7: by the way, you have to go out on a 419 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 7: football field and win football games too while you're doing 420 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 7: it all. And so as you head into year two, 421 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 7: you just start with a much higher baseline and so 422 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 7: you know, excited for this team, We're excited for what 423 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 7: this team's capable of, and obviously we've got a big 424 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,959 Speaker 7: stage Saturday night that we're looking forward to getting on. 425 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 2: Coach in the SEC. I feel like there's so many 426 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: high profile quarterbacks at so many great schools. Do you 427 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 2: ever feel like your quarterback, Marcel Reed is kind of 428 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 2: flying under the radar? 429 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 7: Yeah? I do. I do. I think that you know, 430 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 7: he had a much better year last year than I 431 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 7: think a lot of people gave him credit for. I 432 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 7: think when you look at his stats and you look 433 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 7: at his passing rating and you look at his completion percentage, 434 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 7: you had the narrative around him got skewed a little 435 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 7: bit from one big moment where he went into the 436 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 7: LSU game and ran the ball a lot. But I 437 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,719 Speaker 7: think his his his work product is significantly different than that, 438 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 7: and you took a big step this offseason. And then 439 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,239 Speaker 7: obviously this is now the test, right This is an 440 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 7: opportunity for him to go up against a really really 441 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 7: good defense and kind of show the world where he's 442 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 7: at and what he's capable of. 443 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 4: How's he feeling? 444 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 7: Are you feeling really good? Feeling? I've been joking with 445 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 7: him all week. He got hurt by a football, but 446 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 7: he's good. He had a good week of practice. Yeah, 447 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 7: I'm excited to. 448 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: Go Taylor Texas A. And I'm sure you played wide 449 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: receiver at North Carolina.

You know, it's it's going to 514 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 7: be an electric crowd Saturday night, I'm sure, and so 515 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 7: you know, it's it's definitely going to be a challenge. 516 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 7: I always dropped back to, you know, we were at 517 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 7: we were at Tiger Stadium and Baton Rouge when Joe 518 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 7: Burrow came out with the E A U X on 519 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 7: the back of his jersey for uh eruption eruption. That 520 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 7: happened that night, and that was one of the I 521 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 7: don't know if I ever felt so bad about a 522 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 7: game before it kicked off. Came out with that jersey 523 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 7: for that national championship team, but we had to play 524 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 7: them in their last game, So you know, we We've 525 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 7: been in some really really electric stadiums and but yeah, 526 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 7: this will be one for sure. 527 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 3: Is that the best college team of all time? 528 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 7: I think so, I think the best college offense. You know, 529 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 7: I was in a half window back then. I was 530 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 7: only focused on offenses. But you know, you just look 531 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 7: at you look at where those guys are today. You know, 532 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 7: that's what we always talked about. Not only were they 533 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,239 Speaker 7: the best players in the SEC that year, within two 534 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 7: years there were some of the top players in the NFL. 535 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 7: And so yeah, I mean that was that was That 536 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 7: was a tough That was a tough matchup. 537 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 4: Coach, look into this week. 538 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 5: Last year you started off your season against Notre Dame 539 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 5: and you lost a heartbreaker. 540 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 4: How much does getting You're welcome he was there. 541 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 3: I mean, I know, well. 542 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 4: Not everybody remembers he does though not you. 543 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 3: You he doesn't remember the wins, only the losses. 544 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 5: So, as I was saying, so how important is it 545 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 5: to get those two wins under your belt? 546 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 4: You know, gain a little confidence going into this game 547 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 4: this year? 548 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, I listen, people ask me that all 549 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 7: the time. Would you rather start with a big game? 550 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 7: Would you rather start with some game that you can 551 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 7: warm up in? At the end of the day, it 552 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 7: kind of is what it is. You know, last year 553 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 7: it was their first, our first, and so you know, 554 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 7: we were both coming out of the blocks trying to 555 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 7: get a big win. You know, this year, there's gonna 556 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 7: be a little bit of a different psychological piece of it. 557 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 7: You know, they're they're going to be hungry and desperate 558 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 7: to get a win, having come off of an opening 559 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 7: week loss. You know, we're stepping into our first big 560 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 7: test of the year, and so you know this will 561 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 7: be our first big battle, and so yeah, each game 562 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,239 Speaker 7: kind of presents its own unique challenges and as long 563 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 7: as there's some level of balance, it kind of is 564 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 7: what it is to be honest with. 565 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 3: What concerns you the most about Notre Dame coach the tailbacks. 566 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 7: I mean they have they have two backs that are 567 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 7: absolutely phenomenal, and you know, I've seen them. Now, this 568 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 7: is three years in a row that I've had to 569 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 7: play against them, because we played them at Duke too. 570 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 7: We lost that game and a heartbreaker. Also, if you 571 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 7: want to just kind of bring that one up while. 572 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,360 Speaker 3: We're at it, I want to revisit all the losses. 573 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 7: For those who don't remember. That was another heartbreaking close loss. 574 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 7: But but no, yes, this is the third year or 575 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 7: I've seen those backs, and you know, they're extremely talented. 576 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 7: They got really good skill on the outside on offense 577 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 7: and then defensively. You know, Marcus really put his handprint 578 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 7: on this place, and they've done a really really good 579 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 7: job building an elite defense. 580 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 5: You mentioned the tailbacks and we all kind of expect 581 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 5: them to want to run the ball. But what have 582 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 5: you seen so far from CJ. 583 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 7: Carr? Yeah, Yeah, it's it's such a small sample size, 584 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 7: you know, And obviously he's a big kid. He's extremely talented. 585 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 7: You go back and you watch high school film and 586 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 7: you watch his tape in the spring game, and he 587 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 7: can throw the ball a mile and has a big 588 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 7: arm strength. And I tell people all the time, if 589 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 7: you win the starting quarterback job at Notre Dame as 590 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 7: a red shirt freshman, you're talented for sure. And so 591 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 7: you know, and then you got to go on the 592 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 7: road in your first start, and you know, I'm sure 593 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 7: he's looking forward to week two and being a lot 594 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 7: more comfortable. You kind of saw him grow into that 595 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 7: game as the game went on and in the second half, 596 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 7: and yeah, I'm sure he's fired up to get back out. 597 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 3: It seems like there's more parody than ever in college football. 598 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 3: Is that fair? 599 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 7: Yeah? I think so. I think so. I think there's 600 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 7: probably a byproduct of the transfer portal a little bit. 601 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 7: I think, you know, teams are having used to be 602 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 7: able to really establish things. You know, you had a 603 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 7: lot of fourth and fifth year players, and now even 604 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 7: when you're an older team, you know, the best you 605 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 7: can do is hope you have guys for their second 606 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 7: year or their third year, you know. And so I 607 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 7: just think the rosters are turning over so much now 608 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 7: that it's it's creating it's be creating a little bit 609 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 7: more parody. People are able to go out and find 610 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 7: talent in different ways, which which helps level the playing 611 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 7: field a little bit. And so, yeah, I think for 612 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 7: sure parody is growing every year. 613 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: Coach, you will love this. I asked my wife, and 614 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: this is why I married her. I said, hey, listen, 615 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: do you want to go to College Stations? You said why? 616 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: I said, well, our daughter's very good friend dad coaches 617 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: there and so and she said, so what does that mean? 618 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 3: And I said, h. 619 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: I said that means maybe perhaps we can ask to 620 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: be on the sideline something. I was just saying, maybe 621 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: good access to the game. She said, oh, she's a 622 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: Gator now, coach. Okay, so she looked at the Florida 623 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: game at Texas A and M.

And I walked 651 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 7: out there and it does it just kind of takes 652 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 7: your breath away. It's it's a really really cool tradition 653 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 7: that we have here, just kind of celebrating what Texas 654 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 7: A and M football is and what the passion of 655 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 7: Texas A and M football is. And yeah, there's a 656 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 7: lot of places where they wish they had sixty thousand 657 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 7: people at the game, let alone in the stadium Friday 658 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 7: night before. 659 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 3: Should I attend that in the Gator jersey or what 660 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 3: do you think? 661 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 7: Well, you know, we're nice people down here, but I 662 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 7: don't know if I don't know that nice. 663 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: What do you have to do if you tell me 664 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: your team does X that you'll win the game? What 665 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: is that thing? What is the most important thing your 666 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: team needs to do to beat noted in? 667 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think I think it's going to be an 668 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 7: explosive play game.
