21
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,160

22
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: mean that as a pejorative. Week nine was a good week.

23
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: There were a lot of really interesting matchups, a ton

24

Speaker 1: that we mentioned during that stream as we go through here,

44
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,480

Speaker 2: I don't put real money on this sport.

90
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: I'd like to know who else had fsu covering by

91
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: nine and a half.

92
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 4: In the Dictionary, the entry next to backdoor cover just

93
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 4: simply says Clemson versus Florida State twenty twenty one, most

94
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 4: backdorious thing.

95
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: I've ever seen.

96
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: As I drive back from watching Baylor beat Texas and listen.

97
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 1: To the college football Blitz, and here Washington the.

98
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 4: State destroying Arizona.

99
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: State, I think I've finally figured out.

100
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 4: What the PAC twelve is by at a moment of clarity,

101
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 4: the PAC twelve is bad.

102
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 2: Nothing is scarier.

103
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 1: Than an offense.

104
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: Then Iowa Wisconsin at eleven am scoring points has been

105
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: a great Halloween costume for Iowa this year. Why didn't they.

106
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 1: Wear it this weekend?

107
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 5: And it's time to retire the dood alert because Kenneth

108
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 5: Blacker the Third had five touchdowns against Michigan. Nobody's ever

109
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 5: going to top that. Retire the dood Alert. Now, Kenneth

110
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 5: Walker the third, that's it?

111
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:41,799
Speaker 1: Go green?

112
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 2: Wait?

113
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: So is Jim Harball melt Tucker's little brother? Now go green? Baby?

114
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: Kind of the last fourteen, I think it's time we

115
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: start to say that Taylor.

116
00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 7: Williams past, what was your favorita physics? And you DK

117
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 7: used almos stacked? Do you have six of them to

118
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 7: choose from?

119
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: Guys?

120
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: Six words fire, Gary Patterson? Please, thank you.

121
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: I guess that's it. I guess that's six yep. So

122
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: hoping you guys can discuss how.

123
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 4: Georgia can win a national championship as potentially the greatest

124
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 4: half team in history.

125
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: I think the Florida gate is just dumb. Me go dogs,

126
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: go braid. What's a glorious night? After you guys talked

127
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 1: to Bailey Zappi on Friday Show.

128
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 2: Looks like you might have got the solid verbal mid

129
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 2: season bump go taps.

130
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 4: Every time Dan plays the home Depot music, I instinctively

131
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 4: look for the remote control of the change the channel's disorienting,

132
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 4: especially in the car.

133
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,559
Speaker 1: Ah, there you go, there you go, You're Week nine

134
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: reverbs had a bunch of Texas quips in there. We

135
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: had some Gym Harbaugh shade, a little bit of something

136
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: for everybody, depending where it is you live, who it

137
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: is root for. What was your impression of Week nine?

138
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: Good week? Bad week? How'd you feel about Sheryl Crow Saturday?

139
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: First of all, five jacked Fowlers. That's the scale we

140
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 3: use to describe how we are, how excited we are

141
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 3: for a specific window of games. The early slate, five

142
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 3: full jacked Chris Fowlers, and man, I loved it. I

143
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 3: loved every second of Week nine, and that's likely because

144
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 3: my team comfortably beat color because otherwise, I mean a

145
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 3: lot of a lot of people have a lot to

146
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 3: be excited about. You're a Michigan State fan, if you're

147
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 3: a Miami fan, like across the board. But man, pretty

148
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 3: much everybody has some qualms, has grievances to air, even

149
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 3: in winning efforts. So I'm excited to talk about it

150
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 3: because there is almost nothing absolute about Week nine.

151
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: It was good the full way through, and as mom

152
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: Ah I think rightfully pointed out, it was exhausting. I

153
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: was exhausted last night. I hit the wall after the

154
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: Notre Dame game. Normally I would stay up and do

155
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: the late night note taking thing. I just couldn't. It

156
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: was a long day of watching football, and I felt

157
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: like having to pay attention to a degree that maybe

158
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: we don't normally have to, because, as is usually the

159
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: case when you go through a college football Saturday fits

160
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: and starts right as you like to say, You've got

161
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: moments that it's very clear, Okay, I need to pay

162
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 1: attention to this, I need to flip to this game.

163
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: But there was just so much action and so much

164
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: going on simultaneously that yeah, it was tough to keep

165
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: track of everything. Not so much in the way of

166
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: huge upsets or anything like that. I don't think what

167
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: we saw in Week nine was a great surprise to anybody,

168
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: but a lot of close games, a lot of high

169
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: level contests out there. So with that being said, why

170
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: don't we start with Georgia Florida because we had billed

171
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: that one as the show piece of the weekend. Look

172
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: is the world's largest outdoor cocktail party, and it's typically

173
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. It's always a game that we

174
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: have to pay pretty close attention to, especially in light

175
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: of what we've seen Georgia do so far this year

176
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: on both offense and defense, to be fair, and then additionally,

177
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: what we saw out of Florida a couple weeks ago,

178
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: to be very specific, in that game against Alabama when

179
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: they took Alabama sort of to the wire. Now, not

180
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 1: as of late, not that version of Florida, but there

181
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: was at least some promise going into this game that

182
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: Florida had potential in them amongst their ranks, that potentially

183
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: they could be an apt challenger for the Georgia Bulldogs.

184
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: That was sort of not the case, correct, that was

185
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: not the case. Florida fans got their wish We did

186
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: see Anthony Richardson get the start, and it was going

187
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: until the last what two and a half minutes the

188
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: first half.

189
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: I would say, so, yeah, I mean, he definitely looked overmatched.

190
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 3: I thought Damian Pierce came to play, but certainly Anthony

191
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 3: Richardson looked like that Georgia defense was a little bit

192
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 3: too fast and mysterious for him largely. And I still

193
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 3: think he can evolve into a really interesting quarterback. But yeah,

194
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 3: it was it was relatively within reach. Obviously a slow

195
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 3: start for both of these teams on offense early on,

196
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 3: but it was clear that in terms of what a team,

197
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 3: any team needs to beat Georgia, it's a quarterback, a

198
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: prepared quarterback, a confident quarterback, an offense that can do

199
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 3: multiple things in at least interesting ways. And that's not

200
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 3: what Florida was or is.

201
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: Nope. So what happened in those last two and a

202
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: half minutes of the first half, we had Florida turning

203
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: it over three times in Georgia scoring twenty one point.

204
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: It was a fumble, an interception, and then a pick six,

205
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: and that's what gave george to the separation it needed

206
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: to put this one on ice look, the defense was

207
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: again suffocating. It's just what we're going to get on

208
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: the Georgia side the full year. Through Florida's game plan,

209
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: I thought was fine. They do to some extent fit

210
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: that bill of a team that can do multiple things

211
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 1: and has the interesting quarterback. But despite being the first

212
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: team all year to surpass three hundred and fifty total yards,

213
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 1: they weren't able to get points on the board until

214
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: late and Georgia just sat on him.

215
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 7: You know.

216
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a crock potting or a

217
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: flash fry or a boat razer, if we even have

218
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: a term for it. But George's defense was very suffocating.

219
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if the Georgia offense looked particularly sharp,

220
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: at least not early.

221
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 7: No.

222
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 3: I mean, on the grounds a mere white is something else,

223
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 3: But no Stetson Bennett looked off. Even though he can

224
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 3: make plays and even though he's pretty fearless all things considered,

225
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 3: he was mistake prone. He is not of the caliber

226
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 3: of George's defense, right, But who is?

227
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, and that who is.

228
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 3: Nationally that's the caliber within the realm of how good

229
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 3: Georgia is at defense. They themselves are playing quarterback other

230
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 3: than Tyler van Dym. Other than Tyler van Dam than Dime.

231
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: That's what we're going with. Now. I didn't create it.

232
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 3: I saw somebody in the Miami Herald created it, but

233
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 3: I or at least referenced it yesterday other than him. Yeah,

234
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's tough to match on offense what

235
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 3: George is doing on defense.

236
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: Georgia a little bit off on offense, but extremely timely.

237
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: They got the plays when they needed it. They were

238
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: very opportunistic, and they got the dub. Look thirty four

239
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 1: to seven. Nobody's going to argue with that, a resounding

240
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: statement win. I saw ESPN was going with statements Saturday,

241
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: and there was a moment when Matt Barry said it

242
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,439
Speaker 1: when I wondered, does he know our little scheme here,

243
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: because he added a little extra emphasis when he said

244
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: statement Saturday, as if he was looking into my soul

245
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: right late, as.

246
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 3: If he were choosing between three words and three words only.

247
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 3: That ESPN separation Saturday statement Saturday. And I don't know

248
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 3: they also use Sheryl Crows Saturday.

249
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: Apparently.

250
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 7: No.

251
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 3: I mean, by the way this it should not be

252
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 3: overlooked that Florida was able to generate a mismatch out

253
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 3: wide when they had a running back on Nakobe Dean

254
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 3: inside linebacker for Georgia, and they're like, oh man, tantalizing mismatch.

255
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 3: We've got a linebacker lined up as a field corner

256
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 3: and Nakobe Dean jumped the route and it was a.

257
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: Pick six, fifty yard pick six to.

258
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 3: Kobe des side linebacker lined up at corner out wide,

259
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 3: pick six.

260
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 1: Unbelievable, just stupid, unbelievable. Yeah, thirty four to seven, A

261
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: really nice win for Georgia. They seem to be on

262
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: a collision course with Alabama. They do have a Tennessee

263
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: game coming up. I don't know if that one's going

264
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: to go any differently than this one, but big win

265
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: for them, twenty seven points in the cocktail party. Florida,

266
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: for their part, has lost three in a row and

267
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: seven of their last eleven. Not a great time at Florida.

268
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: We can unpack what it means on the Dan Mullen front,

269
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 1: if anything, over the days and weeks that are ahead.

270
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 1: Obviously there was a ton of turnover in the twenty

271
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: twenty one season that he's still having to contend with,

272
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: but certainly Florida fans are wearing a little bit thin

273
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: on the patient's side, and I get it. Yeah, Florida's

274
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: age like twenty facebook years since that Alabama lost, Right,

275
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: we were like, I remember Florida as being pretty attractive,

276
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: and now they are far lumpier than I remembered they

277
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: were in nineteen ninety facebook years. I'll have to remember

278
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: that one. Okay Toole's let's go over to the Michigan

279
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: Michigan State game. Because this one was an early game

280
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: at high noon Eastern time. It set the tone for

281
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: the day. Yeah, it really did. Despite trailing late, Michigan

282
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: State went on a twenty three to three run in

283
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: about the last twenty one minutes or so of gameplay

284
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: and got the dub and got to eight and oh

285
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: and is still unbeaten. An incredible tale here for mel

286
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: Tucker and the Michigan State Spartans what they were able

287
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,239
Speaker 1: to do and win this game. Look, it was ultimately,

288
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: in my view, a series of fumbles late for Michigan

289
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: that both figurative, Yeah, literal and figurative. JJ McCarthy unfortunately

290
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: responsible for both of them. Yeah, about midway through the

291
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: first quarter, the first came on a nice Michigan drive

292
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: that Kate McNamara was leading. Kate McNamara was sensational in

293
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: this game. But they brought in JJ McCarthy. He fumbled

294
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: it out of bound to sort of broke their momentum.

295
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: They only came away with a field goal. So they're

296
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: up thirty three to thirty at that point, still in

297
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: the lead. On the I think next play or next drive,

298
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: the ensuing drive, Michigan's out there again. Kate McNamara goes

299
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: into the injury tent, which is why JJ McCarthy came

300
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: out at all. There was some question as to why

301
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: are they doing this? Is it a Tommy reeze and

302
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly like unsure of our quarterback situation. No, Kate

303
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: McNamara was hurt. He was in the injury tent. JJ

304
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: McCarthy comes out there, fumbles it again and this time

305
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: they lost it. Yeah, and that's what sprung Michigan state free.

306
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: They go on a seven play drive, they end up

307
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: scoring the go ahead touchdown. They end up winning the

308
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: game thirty seven to thirty three. Dan big win for them.

309
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Uh, Michigan blewett because Cad McNamara played really well

310
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 3: and look, he's not going to be throwing the ball

311
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 3: downfield like crazy because that's not what he does well.

312
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 3: But he hits dudes over the middle. He doesn't go

313
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 3: out wide all that often. But it was what andrel

314
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 3: Anthony the freshman who was making plays.

315
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: Who had never gotten a catch by the way right

316
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 1: on targetge he had run eleven roots all year and

317
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: had one target but zero catches going into this game,

318
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: and just came away like a full on dude. Six catches,

319
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty five yards, two touchdowns. He's from

320
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: East Lansing, so quite a homecoming for him. Sure.

321
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 3: Speaking of full on dude, Kenneth Walker, we can stay

322
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 3: hung up on the Michigan side of things because they

323
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 3: blew a sizeable lead and they made mistakes with the

324
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: freshman quarterback pressed into action, although he has gotten into

325
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 3: the rotation some because he is the quarterback of the

326
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 3: future in ann Arbor. We can stay with that. Michigan

327
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 3: State falls down early, makes mistakes on both sides of

328
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 3: the ball. Obviously a safety late to come over on

329
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: that Anthony slants or whatever was crossing pattern that led

330
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 3: to the long long ninety three whatever yard touchdown. Yep,

331
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 3: Michigan State lucky to only be down what they are.

332
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 3: They force a field goal and only go down ten

333
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 3: to nothing, and then Kenneth Walker is just and even

334
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 3: going down like they did later on in the game,

335
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 3: bail them out over and over again because he is

336
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 3: that good, because he can see that nothing is there

337
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,679
Speaker 3: up the middle of the field and can bounce and

338
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 3: run hard and run angry and is among the if

339
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 3: not the most impressive running back in the nation. Peyton Thorn,

340
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: not a particularly great day, had an unbelievable fourth down

341
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 3: conversion on a play action leak out after a I

342
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 3: think a slot guy sort of showed himself to be

343
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 3: maybe doing a rub route situation or a delayed block

344
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 3: on a swing pass, then leaked out and long, long,

345
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 3: almost touchdown. It was an incredible eventual defensive performance from

346
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 3: Michigan State. Eventual, eventually Kenneth Walker an ability to stay

347
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 3: focused and win a game that looked like it was

348
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 3: slipping away, to take advantage of Michigan mistakes, of which

349
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 3: there were a few, but also to just make plays

350
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 3: when the time was right. And it was a great

351
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 3: you know, Michigan State dropped into the zone on the

352
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 3: game sealing interception, a corner, peeled off, stayed within his

353
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 3: area and made that play sort of with one arm

354
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 3: bringing it into the other the interception off of Caid McNamara.

355
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 3: I don't put this game on Caid McNamara, But at

356
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:13,239
Speaker 3: the same time, Michigan's passing game is limited. It just is,

357
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,479
Speaker 3: and so I thought the coaches did a pretty good

358
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 3: job of putting him in a position to win. But

359
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 3: also Michigan kicked what four field goals and made them

360
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 3: made all four, And I just in spots like this,

361
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 3: if it's fourth and three from the other team seventeen,

362
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 3: at a certain point you need to say fit and

363
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 3: just keep the offense moving. Because Michigan stalled far too

364
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 3: often in the red zone to win this game and

365
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 3: just was happy with threes. And just like I think

366
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,719
Speaker 3: it's Tom Fournelli points out, you know, you don't make

367
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 3: friends with salads from the Simpsons. You don't win big

368
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 3: games with field goals.

369
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: You just don't.

370
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 3: And I understand you're up whatever, you're getting points on

371
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 3: the board. It just has to be a non stop

372
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 3: killer instinct. And Michigan stopped it's killer instinct a couple

373
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 3: of times too often to me.

374
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,360
Speaker 1: Kate mcnamaray. You mentioned his name just to throw out

375
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: his stat line to give people context. Three eighty three,

376
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, one interception. He had a really good game.

377
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: He's got a little bit of Ian Book in him,

378
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 1: a little bit of Ian Book in him, keeps thinkings shallow,

379
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 1: keeps him shallow, but is accurate and has been a

380
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: pretty successful quarterback. Is buying large, very very thrifty with

381
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: the football, does not make dumb mistakes. And I think

382
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,440
Speaker 1: you're right. I think the Michigan coaching staff did a

383
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: good job scheming in a way that he would well,

384
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: oh for him, specifically for him.

385
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 3: Don't think that the management of the game was good

386
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: for me, now.

387
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: For him, specifically with getting the passing offense going, because

388
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: that was a real question, right. We came into this

389
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: game wondering does Michigan have a second pitch. We've heard

390
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 1: so much about the rushing attack and what they can

391
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 1: do on the ground, but what happens if they get

392
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 1: into a throw fest? Can Kate McNamara do it? He

393
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: did his part, He really did do his part. But

394
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 1: Michigan State man, you know you're right to call out

395
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: Kenny Walker runs hard, runs angry. He's got pipes on

396
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: him like he's a big dude, and he goes head hunting.

397
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 1: He's not trying to get out of bounds. He's looking

398
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: to take people on, which I really really like about him.

399
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 1: That's going to serve him well as he moves forward.

400
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 1: I just want to reiterate how weird it is to

401
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: say Michigan State is a big playoffense because they have

402
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: a big offense.

403
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: They're a medium playoffense. They're not a small playoffense. They

404
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 3: are a big playoffs, big playoffense. Who needs to get

405
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 3: better going drive to drive, staying on the fields, you know,

406
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 3: converting third downs, whatever. But no, they absolutely are and

407
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 3: they made plays in spots that Michigan just couldn't. That's

408
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 3: what very good teams do.

409
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: Let's keep it in the big ten, Dan, Let's talk

410
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: about Ohio State thirty three Penn State twenty four. First off,

411
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: I whift on this game, how about you? Yeah?

412
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 3: I was very confident in Ohio State, and they essentially

413
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 3: snuck by a team who just lost to Illinois in

414
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 3: nine overtimes. So I know what we think about Ohio

415
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:58,479
Speaker 3: State at this point.

416
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I whift on this game pretty badly. I was

417
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 1: not sure what version of Penn State we were going

418
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: to see. We talked on the previous show. I was

419
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: a little worried there was a circling of the drain

420
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: quality here for Penn State after losing to Illinois. But

421
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what version of Penn State we saw

422
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: a week ago, Like maybe it was just an enormous

423
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: look ahead spot knowing Ohio State was on deck. I

424
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: have no idea what the hell went on in the

425
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: nine overtime lost Illinois when they had a multitude of

426
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: chances that couldn't punch it in from the three freaking

427
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 1: yard line or whatever these new rules are. But the

428
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 1: Penn State that we saw last night was a much

429
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: much different team. It was much more of the Penn

430
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: State team that we saw in the first half the season.

431
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 1: Somehow they rebuilt Sean Clifford like he was the six

432
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: million dollar man in the last week, and he came

433
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: into this game looking sharp, looking healthy, looking like he

434
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: could potentially be good enough for Penn State to win

435
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: the game. He threw the ball fifty two times and

436
00:22:59,200 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: he looked pretty good.

437
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 3: Rejected with alien plasma pregame. Yeah, I don't know.

438
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: What it was, man, but he looked pretty damn good.

439
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 1: The problem is that Ohio State's also very good, and

440
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: they have more weapons on offense than perhaps anybody outside

441
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 1: of Alabama, and so over the course of sixty minutes,

442
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: those guys are going to be put in space, put

443
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: in positions to succeed. You're going to have Trevon Henderson

444
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 1: getting his, You're gonna have Chris O Lave getting his.

445
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 1: Guys are just going to get open and the defense

446
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: can only do so much like Christal Lave didn't go nuts.

447
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 1: Nobody went nuts, no, and so the defense, I thought

448
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: for Penn State did an admirable job trying to tame

449
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 1: all of these weapons that Ohio State has. It's just

450
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: over the course of time, they're going to get theirs.

451
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: And that's what I saw. Happy like, there was an

452
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: inevitable quality to this game that we could have seen

453
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,199
Speaker 1: coming a mile away that I expected, frankly to be

454
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 1: a lot worse. But Penn State was able to control

455
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: the damage. They were much much better on offense. Still

456
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: can't run for a lick, but this point that's just

457
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: like what we assume as fact with Penn State. But

458
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: I thought they came out there, they had a good

459
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: game plan, they got Johan Dotson in space. Sean Clifford

460
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: looked good. It was really just a function of Ohio

461
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: State in the end being the better team, making a

462
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: few more plays when they had to, and getting the

463
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: job done at home. To be honest with you, I

464
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: think it raises more questions about the Buckeyes.

465
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 3: They were not good in the red zone. And granted

466
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 3: Penn State's defense stood tall, right, they would bend but

467
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 3: not break. But it was over and over again, Ohio

468
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: State settling for field goals and you know, turning the

469
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 3: ball over on downs whatever. They were not closing the

470
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,439
Speaker 3: game or they were not closing drives. Penn State couldn't

471
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 3: close the game. That's the issue. So Penn State allowed

472
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 3: what ten offensive points in the first half because it

473
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 3: was a fifty some odd yard scoop and score right

474
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 3: from yeah jeron Jaron Cage, which is unfortunate because if

475
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 3: Penn State's able to hold Ohio State to if my

476
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 3: math is correct, twenty six offensive points, it's a winnable

477
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 3: it's a winnable goal. And Penn State just could not

478
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 3: close the game out. So there so they So Sean

479
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 3: Clifford throws a pick with eleven minutes left. I returned

480
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 3: twenty five yards in the fourth quarter and then they

481
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 3: punt it right after not being able to do anything.

482
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 3: There was like the weird when he stepped out of

483
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 3: bounds the receiver and.

484
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: Very visibly just ran out of bounds and came back in.

485
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,679
Speaker 3: Just was like, what if I go this way? What

486
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 3: if I go And there was no sense at all

487
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: on the broadcast or in the crowd of like, oh

488
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 3: my god, this is a game changing moment. I was like, no,

489
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 3: that was very obvious, and so Penn State couldn't close

490
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 3: at all. There was no threat of closing. I it

491
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 3: was thirty three twenty four with a couple of minutes

492
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 3: left with Penn State with the ball, and I just

493
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 3: kind of went to bed, And I mean, was there

494
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 3: was no confidence that Penn State could do anything in

495
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 3: terms of having two three minutes left and score quick

496
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 3: or kick a quick field goal and odds like, I

497
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,199
Speaker 3: just know that's it.

498
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: I don't think so, Tim No, I mean and on

499
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: the Ohio State side. Let me just come back to

500
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: this point, because I think we've had a pretty good

501
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 1: debate on this show about where we're each at with

502
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: regard to Ohio State. Yeah, I'm going on radio shows

503
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: telling people they're the best team in the country. All right,

504
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 1: That's where I've been over the last couple weeks, and

505
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: look to be fair. Four hundred and sixty six yards

506
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 1: and twenty six offensive points against a pretty good defense,

507
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 1: Top ten defense. Ohio State's fine. They're probably getting a

508
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: little better each week. But I do think that the

509
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: month of November looks a lot more interesting in retrospect.

510
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: It was probably premature to just write them into the playoff,

511
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: write them in as Big ten champs for that matter,

512
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 1: which I think is what's been stuck in your craw

513
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: the last couple weeks because Ohio State's been getting theirs.

514
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 1: They've been playing against substandard competition. They played against a

515
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: pretty good team in Penn State. We think pretty good team.

516
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: I think they're pretty good, and they were in for

517
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: more of a game than certainly Vegas expected.

518
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

519
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 3: I liked a lot of what I saw from Penn State.

520
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 3: For a chunk of this game, right, Johan Dotson was

521
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 3: taken away and Parker Washington made play. Sean Clifford was

522
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 3: stepping into balls, Brenton Strange, the tight ends were making plays.

523
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 3: The defense was making plays. You have that really nice

524
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 3: Chris Olave touchdown that was pretty wide open. Garrett Wilson

525
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 3: was making place for Ohio State, and Penn State's able

526
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 3: to weather it. The problem is, like you said, Ohio

527
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 3: State merely played fine on offense. This was not an

528
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 3: overwhelming performance from Ohio State. But if that's enough to

529
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 3: beat a very good Penn State defense, watch out everybody

530
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 3: else until I suppose playoff time because there's nobody in

531
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 3: the West.

532
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: There's still wrinkles to iron out too. With this offense.

533
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: You could see it. I mean there was the one

534
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: very obvious throw that CJ. Stroud miss the guy in

535
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: the slot wide open.

536
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd still rather be Ohio State than pretty much

537
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 3: anybody else.

538
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: All right, Well, elsewhere in the Big Ten, we had

539
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: Wisconsin twenty seven to seven over Iowa. We had Minnesota

540
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: forty one to fourteen over Northwestern Maryland in a fun

541
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: one thirty eight to thirty five over Indiana, Rutgers getting

542
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: to four and four on the year with a twenty

543
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: to fourteen win over Illinois, and Perdue with a big

544
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: old middle finger to Scott Frost twenty eight to twenty three. Dan,

545
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: Why don't we start very quickly with that Wisconsin game. Sure,

546
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 1: at one point in this game I texted you Wisconsin

547
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: was up twenty to nothing inside like the last what

548
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: three minutes maybe the first half, and Iowa's offense had

549
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: a massed five yards fifteen feet of offense five yards

550
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: of offense. Now they got more. They finished with I

551
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: think one hundred and fifty six. But that being said,

552
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 1: not entirely unexpected, given what we've come to know about

553
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 1: the Iowa offense and certainly the Wisconsin defense. But it

554
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: only tells part of the story here, because in a

555
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: very weird shift of karma, Iowa fumbled three times inside

556
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: their own twenty in the second quarter, which gave wisconstant

557
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: ten free points. I always been living on that through

558
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: the first seven weeks of the season, turnover differential short fields,

559
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: not having to do too much on offense. In this game,

560
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: it swung back around and it got.

561
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 6: Them punt punts, punts, fumble fumble punts, punts, punts, he

562
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 6: he touchdowns, downs, downs, punts downs.

563
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 2: And of.

564
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 3: Maybe they weren't booing Penn State players, maybe they were

565
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 3: pre booing their own offense. Maybe they were saying new

566
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 3: offensive coordinator new offensive coordinator, because Iowa is going to

567
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 3: play with one hand behind its back as long as

568
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 3: they're running this offense under Brian Farrence. The offensive line

569
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 3: weirdly enough, not that good, not that good this year.

570
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 3: The tackles were beat over and over again. Wisconsin did

571
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 3: its part on offense, you know, Graham Ertz was fine.

572
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 3: They ran the ball, they took advantage of short fields.

573
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 3: It was a relatively easy win. I think both Wisconsin

574
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 3: and Minnesota control their destiny right in the Big Ten West. Yeah,

575
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 3: Iowa has scored seven points in each of their last

576
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,959
Speaker 3: two games, and this one I believe came after a bye.

577
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: Correct.

578
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 3: Yep, elsewhere in the Big Ten? Anything else stand out

579
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 3: to you?

580
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: Minnesota very quiet six and two, yet theirs on the ground,

581
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: albeit against Northwestern. The Maryland Indiana game was pretty fun.

582
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: We saw Donovan McCully, the freshman from Indianapolis, get the

583
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: start for indian and he looked pretty good at two touchdowns.

584
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: Maryland gets off the Schneide breaks their three game losing streak.

585
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: They're now at five and three. Got their own drive

586
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: for six going on right now. The month of November

587
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: gets pretty tough, but it seems that there's an easy

588
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: path or an easier path to get the six that

589
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: doesn't involve beating Penn State or some of the other

590
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: better teams. They do have Michigan to close out the year.

591
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: I think the big thing for me, though, is that

592
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 1: the Scott Frost thing has to be over now, right,

593
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: I think, so it's got to be coming to an end.

594
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 3: It's buy out dependent if they need to find places

595
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 3: to find those dollars. But do you know how hard

596
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 3: it is, by the way, to lose a turnover battle

597
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 3: four to nil and almost win. I know, I know,

598
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 3: And on a certain level, it's impressive by both of

599
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 3: these teams. Like Purdue is not that good of a team,

600
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 3: and they were spotted a bunch of turnovers by Iowa

601
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 3: and comfortably won that game. They were spotted every kind

602
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 3: of interception, of which were Adrian Martinez's fault, as I

603
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 3: pointed out to you, just a variety of interception types,

604
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 3: and yet still couldn't get David Bell going consistently. This

605
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 3: is a good Nebraska defense for sure, but Purdue's not

606
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 3: all that good. But they're able to hold on. Twenty

607
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 3: eight to twenty three, I believe is the final. But

608
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 3: man I I don't know. I don't know what it

609
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 3: is that you can expect from bringing Scott Frost back.

610
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 3: That's different.

611
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.

612
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 3: What evidence do we have at this point that he's

613
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 3: going to start winning close games, that quarterbacks are going

614
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 3: to develop into lethal weapons occasionally, Like, I don't know,

615
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 3: I don't see it.

616
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, a career high four interceptions for Adrian Martinez. As

617
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: you pointed out, three of them were really his fault.

618
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: One was off the hands of a tight end. It

619
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: was their sixth loss this season by a touchdown or less.

620
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: Just a backbreaker, backbreaker to lose at home against Purdue,

621
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 1: and it would seemingly be the end of the frost erap.

622
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: But we'll see. Yeah, I'll say good for Maryland. You're right.

623
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 3: Illinois on their own drive they now need to win

624
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 3: out after losing to Rutgers. Rutgers four and four not

625
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 3: having an amazing ear, but four and four is four

626
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 3: and four is four and four. Illinois finishes out. I

627
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 3: don't know. I know, obviously they have Northwestern, but on

628
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 3: their own drive to say.

629
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, the drive for six is over for them, it's belief.

630
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 3: So they can beat Northwestern, they can get to four

631
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 3: and eight, which all things considered, beating Penn State, Northwestern

632
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 3: and Nebraska.

633
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: Not bad, weird, not bad that all right, Let's go

634
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: over to the SEC. Alabama was on buy but it

635
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: is today. Actually we're recording on Sunday. It's Nick Saban's

636
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:42,719
Speaker 1: seventieth birthday. Hey, happy birthday to sir Nick. Let's start

637
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: with the Auburn ole Miss game.

638
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 3: Dan, Auburn was wired to wire. I mean the second

639
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 3: half was, or the second quarter, excuse me, was back

640
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 3: and forth. But Auburn ran the ball really well. I

641
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 3: thought the receivers did a nice job, especially in higher

642
00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 3: leverage moments. It was what Hudson and Robertson. Robertson Sean

643
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 3: Shivers made a couple of clutch catches. Bo Nix looked

644
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 3: comfortable throwing in rhythm like.

645
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: Boh, good bow, he's back.

646
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 3: It's not even just good bow. It's evolved. Bo. Maybe

647
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 3: they always need to wear the orange face masks, that

648
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: the Halloween face mask.

649
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:17,359
Speaker 1: Whatever it was.

650
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 3: But Auburn did a really nice job, especially tightening up

651
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 3: in the red zone on defense as ole Miss was

652
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 3: moving the ball. Matt Krow, crazy beat up was basically

653
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,439
Speaker 3: playing on no ankles. And so Auburn did a really

654
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 3: nice job against Ole Miss on the ground because they

655
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 3: just sort of figured that's where the Rebels were gonna

656
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 3: be able to move the ball. Not so much. I

657
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 3: just came away impressed by Auburn, Impressed by the Auburn crowd.

658
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 3: It was just in terms of electricity, one of the

659
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 3: more impressive TV shows of the day. I agree, Wall

660
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 3: to Wall a really fun watch if you're a college

661
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 3: football fan. Obviously not if you're an old Miss fan.

662
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 3: But Auburn very cool. I don't you know. One of

663
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 3: the callers on the on the reverb said like don't

664
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 3: curse Auburn with saying like how many can they win?

665
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 3: Auburn's just a good team. I don't know what the

666
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 3: long term prognosis is for Auburn football, because recruiting does

667
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 3: not appear to be in an amazing place at the moment.

668
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 3: But this year specifically impressive, really impressive.

669
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: It's impressive. They go on the road next week at

670
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: A and M, which would be a great game. They've

671
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: got Mississippi State at home, South Carolina on the road

672
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: a week before the Alabama game. The Iron Bowl be

673
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,280
Speaker 1: very interesting this year. Alabama will of course be favored.

674
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 1: I'm assuming by at least a touchdown, probably more. But

675
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 1: Auburn's a good team. Auburn's a solid team, and this

676
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 1: was a really solid win at home against a team

677
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 1: in Old Miss that, you know, albeit Matt Carroll being

678
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 1: a bit beat up, All Miss can put up points.

679
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and bo Nick's throwing into the A and M

680
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 3: defense is very scary. But those games before the PAMA game,

681
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 3: I mean, at the very least, they're going to be

682
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 3: competitive and they're winnable. I don't I'm not crazy confident,

683
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 3: but like, can they go, Oh, can Auburn at this

684
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 3: point go which games have they lost? They lost to

685
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 3: Penn State and they lost to Georgige obviously, so justifiable losses.

686
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 3: They can go nine to three, get to ten with

687
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 3: a bowl like they can. A and M's gonna be

688
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 3: very tough. A and M's gonna be very tough with

689
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:16,879
Speaker 3: Kyle Field.

690
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, look, you'll take that in year one, Brian Harson,

691
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,720
Speaker 1: You'll take that one to nine and four. It's fine,

692
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 1: absolutely all right. Elsewhere in the SEC Mississippi State thirty one,

693
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: Kentucky seventeen. The Cats got off to a hot start here,

694
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: Josh a Lee returned a punt for a touchdown for

695
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: like seventy five yards, but did not go well from

696
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: there on out. Kentucky had four turnovers, three of which

697
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: were interceptions by Will Levis. The running game was held

698
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 1: in check. They just finished with two hundred and sixteen

699
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: total yards on offense. A hell of a game for

700
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: Will Rogers for Mississippi State. He broke an SEC record

701
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: at this thirty six of thirty nine passing for three

702
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 1: hundred and forty four yards. That's a ninety two percent

703
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: completion percentage. That breaks the SEC record for any game

704
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: with thirty or more passing attempts. That ninety two percent

705
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 1: completion percentage. So yeah, a little bit inside baseball there,

706
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 1: But I think the operative point is just that Will

707
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,800
Speaker 1: Rogers had a really good game against a good defense

708
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: in Kentucky as a game they lost last year, I

709
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: think would we say twenty four to two something in

710
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: that vicinity, So a nice bounce back effort for them.

711
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: They also got it done on the ground too, It

712
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 1: wasn't just all through the air. Three touchdowns on the

713
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 1: ground form Mississippi State. So all in all, really good effort.

714
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, fumbling issues from Kentucky as well did not help.

715
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 3: And yeah, Mississippi State defensively, I thought was the story

716
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 3: you mentioned the Will Rodgers thing certainly impressive and it

717
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 3: wasn't just like three yard hitches or anything like that.

718
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 3: He was going downfield, he was making plays. And even

719
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 3: though even though Mississippi State didn't run the ball all

720
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 3: that well, there's some sort of nugget in the back

721
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 3: of my head that's a weird way to phrase things,

722
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 3: but that Mike Leach teams and air Raid teams are

723
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 3: actually better the less they throw the ball. That they

724
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 3: have that you know, overwhelming part of their offense is

725
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 3: throwing the ball like crazy. But when they are able

726
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 3: to run the ball and keep defense is a little

727
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,760
Speaker 3: bit honest and throw the ball maybe fewer than forty

728
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 3: times forty five times, they become a lot more interesting. Obviously,

729
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 3: Mississippi State's defense this year has been a big reason

730
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 3: why they've won the games that they won. But no

731
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 3: really impressive performance against a good Kentucky team. Now, forcing mistakes,

732
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 3: taking advantage of mistakes, it's what pretty good teams do.

733
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 3: And I still believe in that as a Mississippi State believer.

734
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 1: A Mississippi State believer, Dan Rubins, that's me. Yeah. To

735
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: close out the SEC, we had Miszoo thirty seven to

736
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: twenty eight. Not a whole lot to add here, but

737
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 1: Missoo gets back to five hundred with this win. Tyler

738
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: Batty had a monster game, two hundred and fifty four

739
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: yards on thirty one carries from Miszoo.

740
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, game was within reach fourth quarter for Vandy to

741
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 3: try to get their first win in the SEC, but

742
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 3: it was not to be over.

743
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 1: In Big twelve Country Dan Baylor thirty one, Texas twenty four.

744
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: A lot of Texas being back jokes on the reverblind,

745
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: a lot of seven wins, Sarks seven wins, Steve Stevie

746
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: one move, I don't know what other names, Steve second

747
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 1: half step. Yeah, whatever monikers we have for coach Sarkhesian,

748
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 1: they were all in effect here with this Baylor Texas game. Now,

749
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: I know you have some thoughts on Texas, so I'd

750
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: like to let you do the damage. But let me

751
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 1: just say a few quick things about Bays because I

752
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 1: was on Baylor in this game. Same on our Solid

753
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: Saturday stream, we talked about how the Bears are very steady,

754
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 1: and that was not meant to undersell anything that the

755
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: Bears have done this year. But they're they're solid. There

756
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: was a real opportunity in this game for things to

757
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: come off the swivel because there were some early turnovers,

758
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:17,959
Speaker 1: uncharacteristic turnovers, mistakes, especially for Gary Bohannon. Yeah, the picks

759
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 1: weren't great. I think it was admirable the way he

760
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,720
Speaker 1: pulled together after some of those early mistakes. And that's

761
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: sort of the mantra for this Dave Randa team. Be disciplined,

762
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,399
Speaker 1: limit your mistakes, don't get too high, don't get too low.

763
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: If you can do all of that, that will get

764
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 1: you places in twenty twenty one in a season that

765
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 1: thus far has been defined by extremes. The fact that

766
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 1: Baylor is pretty even keel, especially in a game like

767
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: this that really could have went south for them, that's

768
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: meaningful and I think that's why they came out as

769
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: a victor thirty one to twenty four. Go ahead, your turn.

770
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,479
Speaker 3: Baylor had one penalty in this game. One pretty good

771
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 3: first three drives the second half all went for touchdowns.

772
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 3: Fourth quarter finish strong good. There are just a lot

773
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 3: of hallmarks of good teams that Baylor is showing now.

774
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 3: There are hallmarks of inconsistent teams and sloppy teams at times.

775
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 3: For Baylor, sure, but the Texas thing is fascinating because

776
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 3: once again they jump out. You know, Xavier Worthy has

777
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 3: the big catch, They make plays, Casey Thompson makes plays.

778
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 3: But at the same time, it's a team that disappears.

779
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 3: It's a team that does not have an offensive line

780
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 3: that should instill confidence in anybody. And it's a team

781
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 3: that can't tackle, can't consistently get to the quarterback, and

782
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 3: can't capitalize on mistakes as often as they should, and

783
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 3: can't capitalize on their own momentum as often as they should.

784
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 3: And that's okay, it's year one. What we're looking for

785
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 3: is and if Texas's final record is not going to

786
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 3: be crazy impressive, they have playmakers on offense, but this

787
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,359
Speaker 3: is not a deep team on either side of the ball.

788
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 3: It's again, year one, so you want to see progress

789
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 3: over the course of the season, which we haven't always seen.

790
00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 3: But you want to see progress year one to year

791
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,799
Speaker 3: two and two to three and so forth. So I'm

792
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 3: confident Texas can make progress in a number of areas.

793
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 3: I think defensively they're going to get better. They need

794
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 3: to tackle better, and they need to. When they're up

795
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,919
Speaker 3: twenty one to ten, treat that as the first quarter. It's,

796
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 3: you know, everything is a new moment, and I think

797
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 3: Texas just gets in their own head a little bit

798
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 3: too often and it shows. It's what seventeen to three

799
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 3: lead against Oklahoma State, twenty eight to three against Oklahoma now,

800
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 3: twenty one to ten against Baylor. Yeah, And I don't

801
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 3: know if they have the depth. I don't know if

802
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 3: it's the killer instinct. I don't know what it is.

803
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,399
Speaker 3: I don't know if Casey Thompson's in his own head.

804
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 3: But Texas just gets to certain points and slows down.

805
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 3: And I don't know if it's an adjustment thing. I

806
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 3: don't know if it's a defense being exhausted thing because

807
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 3: they're not coached well enough or they're not just deep enough.

808
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 1: But it.

809
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 3: I'm droning on and on about Texas. Baylor's the better team.

810
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 3: Baylor won the game. Baylor is the more impressive story

811
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 3: with its relatively new coach.

812
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 1: Speaking of disappearing acts, let's talk about Iowa State. Yeah,

813
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 1: Iowa State, your state cyclones, Iowa State cyclones who I

814
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 1: apparently jinxed by claiming they were going to run the table.

815
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: West Virginia thirty eight, Iowa State thirty one. Good for

816
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: West Virginia forgetting this win. At least by my count,

817
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 1: six of their eight games have been stressful as hell

818
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: this year, yep, and this one was no different, to

819
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 1: be fair, but it definitely feels a little bit better

820
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: to come away with the dub if you're West Virginia.

821
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 1: They played well on offense and particularly on defense, like

822
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 1: they held Iowa State to just two of twelve on

823
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: third downs and outside of what two big plays for

824
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: Iowa State, Cyclones were held under three hundred total yards

825
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: of offense, So I thought a good team effort from

826
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 1: West Virginia. Good for them. Of note, on the Iowa

827
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 1: State side, they were without Mike Rose, They're leading tackler.

828
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: He was hurt, and just like that, they gave up

829
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 1: close to five hundred yards of offense. So what difference

830
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,279
Speaker 1: does one man make in the Iowa State case? A

831
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,359
Speaker 1: pretty big one. But all the credit here is due

832
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 1: to West Virginia. They played a hell of a game.

833
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 3: Jared Dagi hit a receiver over and over again, and

834
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw that catch that I

835
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,400
Speaker 3: believe was ruled a touchdown for West Virginia, which wasn't

836
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 3: super clear if his feet were down in the back

837
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 3: of the end zone. It was an amazing catch, but

838
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 3: that stood. I know there's always going to be official

839
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 3: blaming and everything like that. There was the fumble with

840
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:31,399
Speaker 3: weird angles in the fourth quarter for Iowa State, but yeah,

841
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 3: I just Iowa State had its chances. Iowa State was

842
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 3: basically too good a guest getting off the field quickly

843
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 3: on offense, especially on third down. There were what I'm

844
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 3: seeing right here, two of twelve on third down, twelve

845
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 3: home crowd came to see the West Virginia Mountaineers, and

846
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 3: Iowa State made sure the West Virginia Mountaineers stayed on

847
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 3: the field on offense. So Iowa State has had its opportunities,

848
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 3: gave up too many points, too many opportunities, too many mistakes.

849
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 3: And even still, even still, Iowa State was able to

850
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 3: make plays like rock Party wasn't great downfield, but the

851
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 3: receivers were pretty good. Breeze Hall, of course, carries this

852
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,959
Speaker 3: team on his back once again, and it's just it's

853
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 3: too much when you're giving up that much on defense.

854
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:17,399
Speaker 1: All right, Elsewhere in the Big twelve k State thirty one.

855
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,800
Speaker 3: Damn he c U twelve.

856
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,399
Speaker 1: All right, so let's start with the headliner. I'm gonna

857
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: try and say his name correctly. You'll do it. You'll

858
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 1: nail it. Felix and you dk U Zama. That's I

859
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,760
Speaker 1: think that's pretty good. I looked up the pronunciation guide.

860
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:39,320
Speaker 1: Four sacks officially and two forced fumbles. At first, it

861
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 1: seemed like he had tied an NCAA record with six,

862
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: but the nc DOUBLEA they swooped in with him well

863
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:49,839
Speaker 1: actually about two hours six sacks after the game and

864
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,320
Speaker 1: said that two of them were quarterback rushes and not sacks.

865
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: But whatever, all time, dude, effort for this guy. As

866
00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: K State just freaking killed TCU. They kill them. They

867
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 1: killed them on the lines. They were up thirty one

868
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,400
Speaker 1: to five with a minute and a half left. TCU

869
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: scored a garbage time touchdown with fifteen seconds left to

870
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: make it look a little closer. But when you're scoring

871
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 1: garbage time touchdowns to pull within nineteen of case State,

872
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,239
Speaker 1: I just don't know how it's going. For Gary Patterson,

873
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,800
Speaker 1: I know how it's going. They're getting worse every week.

874
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 3: There's going to be a difficult conversation at the end

875
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 3: of this season, or it's already been had, or it'll

876
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,240
Speaker 3: happen next season, or at the end of next season.

877
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:36,439
Speaker 3: Because where TCU is right now is lost, and I'm

878
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 3: not sure that they have a map. I don't know

879
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:42,240
Speaker 3: that they have any sort of GPS advantage at the moment.

880
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:46,479
Speaker 3: And Case State, to their credit duz Von another Ducevon game,

881
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 3: you know, fourth and short, whatever explodes. I thought Skyler

882
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,879
Speaker 3: Thompson was dealing extremely well, spread the ball out really impressively.

883
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 3: Case State's a pretty good team. They make too many

884
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 3: mistakes against some of the better competition that they play,

885
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 3: and they've been beat up. Obviously, Skyler Thompson missing time

886
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 3: doesn't help. Sure, But the story to me is still

887
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 3: Max Duggan leaves the game. It was what Chandler Morris

888
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 3: comes in like TCU can't really figure it out on

889
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 3: either side of the ball, and that's a poor reflection. No,

890
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,879
Speaker 3: Zach Evans didn't play in this game. He removed all

891
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 3: traces of TCU allegiance on his Instagram and everyone's, oh

892
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 3: my god, maybe he's gone.

893
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 1: I don't know.

894
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:27,799
Speaker 3: Obviously, his recruitment was turbulent, to say the least. I

895
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 3: would say so, maybe he has moved on.

896
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 1: I don't know.

897
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,840
Speaker 3: Kendre Miller ran relatively well, but TCU is a lost

898
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 3: program right now. I don't know a better way to

899
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 3: describe it. And K State is getting its act together.

900
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: K State is getting its act together. So good win

901
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 1: by the Whitecat's great effort on defense just a mouneymental effort,

902
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 1: singular performance on defense. Great, great job, Dan, We have

903
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: breaking news.

904
00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is This is many hours after we were

905
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 3: or did the reaction show, and we do yes on.

906
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 1: Demand audio is not always kind to breaking news. We

907
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 1: thought we needed to insert a little bit of commentary

908
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 1: to address the elephant in the room. We talked about

909
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: the other elephants with respect to the K State TCU game,

910
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: but a pretty big news story dropped this evening, Dan,

911
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:22,280
Speaker 1: did it not correct?

912
00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:27,760
Speaker 3: Yes, Gary Patterson effective immediately has stepped down, mutually agreed

913
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 3: with TCU that they would go their separate ways. And

914
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,720
Speaker 3: this is after what did you say, twenty twenty one years?

915
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,680
Speaker 1: Twenty one years. Yeah, he's been there a long time.

916
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:41,400
Speaker 1: He has obviously taken TCU to great heights. They are

917
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 1: now a Power five program, They're in the Big twelve.

918
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 1: His career record one point eighty one and seventy nine,

919
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 1: so clearly a legend. The guy's got a statue. But

920
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,879
Speaker 1: as we alluded just a few minutes ago, when we

921
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: recorded earlier on Sunday, things started to feel like they

922
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 1: were off the swivel. And yeah, it definitely started to

923
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 1: feel a lot like TCU was getting worse. There was

924
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,319
Speaker 1: all sorts of writing on the wall that this was

925
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 1: not long for this college football world. And yeah, the

926
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 1: news became official on Sunday evening that TCU and Gary

927
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 1: Patterson mutually parting ways.

928
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:24,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean, as for where TCU has been recently, obviously,

929
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 3: the defense taking a step back every so often. Some

930
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,280
Speaker 3: years it would be interesting, some years not so interesting.

931
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:35,360
Speaker 3: This year has been pretty bad in terms of defensive performance,

932
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,280
Speaker 3: of course, and that's just not what a Gary Patterson

933
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 3: team typically looks like. And whether it's a one off,

934
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 3: whether it's a recruiting thing, a development thing, an injury thing,

935
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,800
Speaker 3: and all of the above thing, it just felt off

936
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 3: in Fort Worth right now. And I mean, not to

937
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 3: eulogize him, I don't believe there's anything wrong with his health.

938
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 3: I think he's okay, and I hope he finds a

939
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 3: lot of happiness. Whatever next chapter is, whether it's singing

940
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 3: country songs like we've seen him do or if he

941
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 3: moves on to another coaching journey. What he did at

942
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,839
Speaker 3: TCU is nothing short of pretty incredible to be there

943
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 3: as long as he was to take them. It was

944
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 3: what Conference USA and then the Mountain West. He won

945
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:18,359
Speaker 3: nine double digit game seasons. He was responsible for nine

946
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 3: double digit win seasons over the course of I think

947
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 3: twenty five to twenty seventeen. If if my ability to

948
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 3: count has added up, I think the most memorable of

949
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 3: those seasons probably remains what twenty ten and twenty fourteen.

950
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:37,399
Speaker 3: Twenty ten when TSU fans would absolutely consider themselves to

951
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,760
Speaker 3: this day to be national championship worthy. That was Oregon

952
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:44,319
Speaker 3: Auburn that season and TCU wins the Rose Bowl over Wisconsin.

953
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 3: That was was an Andy Dalton, Justin fwente Wayman, James

954
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 3: ed Wesley. If all those names still resonate with you,

955
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,280
Speaker 3: that means you're a good fan of the Mountain West

956
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 3: of TCU. And of course twenty fourteen was Trevon Boykin

957
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 3: and Josh Dockson. Where the big headliners there they end

958
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 3: up going to the Peach Bowl, being left out of

959
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 3: the playoff even though they were number three I believe

960
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 3: a week before the final rankings, and then blew out

961
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:14,239
Speaker 3: Kansas and suddenly weren't a playoff caliber team. So those

962
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 3: years were incredible. Of course, my own emotions are tied

963
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 3: to Gary Patterson and him changing his shirt at halftime

964
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,320
Speaker 3: of the Alamobile in that crazy thirty one to nothing comeback.

965
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 3: But what he did at TCU just in terms of

966
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:29,640
Speaker 3: developing talent, winning just a crapload of games, and putting

967
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 3: that program on the map unlike anybody else in the

968
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:36,839
Speaker 3: modern era. Of course, at TCU, just an incredible run

969
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 3: for the Frogs and for Gary Patterson.

970
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 1: Some of the early names that have been thrown out there,

971
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 1: Sunny Dykes from SMU, sure potentially having his pick of

972
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:49,880
Speaker 1: the litter between TCU and Texas Tech if he wants

973
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,120
Speaker 1: to stay in the Great State of Texas. There was

974
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:57,360
Speaker 1: also some news about Jeff Trailers signing a gigantic contract

975
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 1: extension with UTSA, so at least for the time, it

976
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 1: seems as if he would no longer be in the running.

977
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if that means anything time their buyouts

978
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:11,080
Speaker 1: or buyouts or buyouts. Billy Napier's another name in the

979
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,840
Speaker 1: southeastern part of the US that could potentially garner some

980
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 1: interest here as well. This will clearly develop more over

981
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: the course of time. TCU not a bad job at all.

982
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:24,240
Speaker 3: No, And by the way, this announcement really.

983
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:24,879
Speaker 1: Screws over Texas Tech.

984
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:29,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, because that was the headline available job in Texas

985
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 3: in the Big twelve, major powerful job, and TCU is

986
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 3: in my estimation, a better job than Texas Tech just

987
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,320
Speaker 3: because you're in the DFW area and you're just closer

988
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,839
Speaker 3: to a lot of big talent, and so no, it'll

989
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 3: be a fascinating Big twelve carousel and can't wait to

990
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 3: see what happens. Both of those jobs are good, but

991
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 3: TCU certainly a high, high level job in my estimation.

992
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 1: Much more to come on this opening and many other

993
00:52:56,719 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: openings that are already out there and some which I

994
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:03,920
Speaker 1: think are yet to come. But in the meantime, on

995
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,280
Speaker 1: with the show. Closing it out with the two programs

996
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:11,240
Speaker 1: in the state of Oklahoma. Caleb Williams with six touchdown

997
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:14,320
Speaker 1: passes as Oklahoma wins fifty two to twenty one over

998
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 1: Texas Tech. Again looks very very sharp, but did you

999
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,840
Speaker 1: see the Spencer Rattler touchdown pass late in the game,

1000
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 1: I did, yeah from midfield that. I don't know if

1001
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 1: I've ever seen anybody throw a ball that hard. Mm hmm.

1002
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,439
Speaker 1: He has some steam he's looking to blow off. It's

1003
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 1: clear from that pass Spencer Ratler is not done as

1004
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 1: a quarterback in college football. He threw that ball so frickin'

1005
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 1: hard to Brian Darby long touchdown pass in the fourth quarter.

1006
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: He did come in seven touchdown passes on the day

1007
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 1: for the collection of Oklahoma quarterbacks.

1008
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, Marvin Mims and Mario Williams both very very good.

1009
00:53:56,200 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams just he just looks like an Oklahoma quarterback,

1010
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 3: doesn't he He's just with the way he moves, the

1011
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:05,239
Speaker 3: way he scans the field, with his increased comfort and

1012
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 3: confidence within the offense, the way he will sort of

1013
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 3: run up to the line of scrimmage and do the

1014
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,240
Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield Kyler curve to the right to buy himself

1015
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 3: a little bit more time and lull the defense into

1016
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 3: thinking he's running and then launch something downfield. He just

1017
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,920
Speaker 3: looks like that guy. I don't know how better to

1018
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,800
Speaker 3: describe it. Obviously, Texas tech dealing with a lame duck situation.

1019
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:25,799
Speaker 3: So it was always going to be tough to go

1020
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 3: to Norman and look competitive. But man, Caleb Williams checked

1021
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 3: every box, and I believe you grabbed him as a

1022
00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:39,360
Speaker 3: Heisman candidate. I got him baby ungodly impressive plus money position.

1023
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 1: Yep, I got him for five bucks. Five bucks at

1024
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:42,680
Speaker 1: what number?

1025
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:43,880
Speaker 5: Uh?

1026
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: At least sixteen to one. I have to check this,

1027
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, look, meetball subs on you, it's

1028
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,920
Speaker 1: meetball subs on me. It's hard to expect that anybody

1029
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,720
Speaker 1: outside of Kenny Dubbs is going to be the Heisman

1030
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,120
Speaker 1: favorite at this point, right, I would.

1031
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:07,040
Speaker 3: Assume even so, just in terms of brand recognition. As

1032
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 3: much as I hate that term Oklahoma quarterback versus Michigan

1033
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,359
Speaker 3: State running back, there's a leg up right now.

1034
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that Caleb Williams is the front runner.

1035
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,719
Speaker 3: I don't think he is fifty one to play more

1036
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:21,600
Speaker 3: fifty to one. You grabbed him at fifty to one,

1037
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,399
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams, Yeah, meatball subs for a lot of us

1038
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:25,759
Speaker 3: on you.

1039
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:26,279
Speaker 1: That's right.

1040
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 3: If he comes through, yeah, I don't know. I don't

1041
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 3: know if c J. Stroud I just the Heisman seems

1042
00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:34,360
Speaker 3: wide open, Bryce Young, will Anderson, Keevon Thibodeau.

1043
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of guys and finally in the big

1044
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 1: twelve to close it out, Oklahoma State resoundingly over Kansas.

1045
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:45,120
Speaker 1: Not every school in Oklahoma struggles against the Kansas Street.

1046
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:49,799
Speaker 1: Good point. Let's go to the ACC. What a day

1047
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 1: in the ACC.

1048
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 3: Huh?

1049
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 1: Well, you know history is decorated with the fine achievements

1050
00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:00,239
Speaker 1: of many great vans. Van Buren was a present, didn't

1051
00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 1: Van Winkle. We know about rip Van, of course, Van Wilder,

1052
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,359
Speaker 1: the van down by the river, the van dams from

1053
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 1: the sound of music. I don't think it's premature to

1054
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:12,000
Speaker 1: add Tyler Van Dyke to that, do you not? At all?

1055
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 1: Two games is plenty TVD thirty two of forty two,

1056
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 1: four hundred and twenty six yards, three touchdowns, one interception.

1057
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:21,879
Speaker 1: The one interception was kind of an armpump. We don't

1058
00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 1: count that against him, do we not? Fully? What did

1059
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 1: you think of watching another game of TVD? As the

1060
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 1: legend builds as Miami knocked off the pit Panthers. This

1061
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 1: was a big game. This was a road tilt for

1062
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: those Miami Hurricanes. Manny Diaz was on the edge until

1063
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 1: TVD just rose like a phoenix from the desert to

1064
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 1: erect this program. I saw I say erect this program. No,

1065
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:55,719
Speaker 1: that's called that's to resurrect this program. Erect means to

1066
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,880
Speaker 1: launch up word and it works.

1067
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:06,800
Speaker 3: That's your interpretation of English. Tvd's very very good, especially

1068
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:11,400
Speaker 3: considering the two opponents he started against ACC opponents. That is,

1069
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 3: I don't know how anybody can come away anything but

1070
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 3: crazy impressed. I mean both quarterbacks in this game. Now

1071
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 3: Kenny Pickett would like to get back a couple throws

1072
00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 3: in a couple of plays, of course, But yeah, to me,

1073
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 3: the story in this game is Tyler Van Dyke rising

1074
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 3: to the occasion once again, this time on the road

1075
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 3: against what has to be considered the ACC favorite in

1076
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,880
Speaker 3: pit given recent results and the ease with which Pitt

1077
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 3: has won games. And he looked like I think there

1078
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:41,440
Speaker 3: were similarities to me. It's not an analog, it's not

1079
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 3: one to one, but there is a little bit of

1080
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 3: justin Herbert to me to Tyler Van Dyke, in that

1081
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:52,520
Speaker 3: the offensive scheme has not always been sound. The receivers

1082
00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 3: have not always been consistent, there have been drops, there

1083
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 3: have been miscommunications, but the confidence with which Tyler Van

1084
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,400
Speaker 3: Dyke throws the ball down all over the place.

1085
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 1: It's a little.

1086
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 3: Reminiscent to me to come in young and be fully

1087
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 3: prepared to dominate. I don't know what his final stat line,

1088
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 3: he was well over four hundred yards for twenty six. Yeah,

1089
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 3: four twenty six. I just I mean Jalen Knighton was

1090
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 3: very good on the ground. I just came away very

1091
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 3: impressed with Miami. I know they gave up a ton

1092
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 3: to Kenny Pickett and the passing attack from Pitt, but

1093
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:27,919
Speaker 3: they were able to turn him over a couple of times.

1094
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,600
Speaker 3: They're over, able to get stops, able to make plays.

1095
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 3: The game came down to the wire. It exploded out

1096
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 3: of the gate by the way, Oh yes, well, oh

1097
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 3: yeah yeah. So one of the more entertaining games of

1098
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:41,480
Speaker 3: the day. And it's a what am I supposed to

1099
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,439
Speaker 3: do with my hands Miami fan situation. I'm not used

1100
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 3: to being a Miami fan and loving the quarterback play.

1101
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 3: It's been a minute since I guess the best of

1102
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:51,840
Speaker 3: Brad Kaya.

1103
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:52,320
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1104
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, but Tyler Van Dyke is on a h he's

1105
00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:56,680
Speaker 3: on an ascension.

1106
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:04,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's on a tear. Here. You mentioned, Yeah, five

1107
00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:09,200
Speaker 1: hundred and nineteen yards in a losing effort, three touchdowns,

1108
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,720
Speaker 1: two interceptions. They were two very costly interceptions. The first

1109
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 1: led to a Miami touchdown. The second came as pitt

1110
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 1: was trying to go for the go ahead touchdown late

1111
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 1: in the game. So good game for him. It was

1112
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:27,680
Speaker 1: all on Kenny Pictet if they were as sad, very

1113
00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 1: very good all right. Elsewhere in the ACC we'll talk

1114
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:34,720
Speaker 1: about the Notre Dame North Carolina game here forty four

1115
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:39,320
Speaker 1: to thirty four. Notre Dame wins. This game was quite

1116
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 1: literally exactly what I expected. You did call this pretty close. Actually,

1117
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:48,800
Speaker 1: it was exactly what I expected. Notre Dame pulled away

1118
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 1: early in the fourth quarter. It was a tight back

1119
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 1: and forth game up to that point, but they got

1120
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of separation in the fourth quarter. They

1121
00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 1: were able to keep Carolina at arms length for the

1122
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:04,640
Speaker 1: latter half of that final quarter and win and cover

1123
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 1: the point spread. They ran the ball really well, which

1124
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: is what I was hoping for and what I was

1125
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 1: looking for. Interesting, Yeah, specifically two hundred and ninety three

1126
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,160
Speaker 1: yards three touchdowns on the ground for the Irish, led

1127
01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 1: by kyn Williams, who had a great game, had a

1128
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 1: long touchdown run, just looked really good. Had a bit

1129
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:21,920
Speaker 1: of an injury scare where it looked like maybe he

1130
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 1: rolled up on his knee or something, but did come

1131
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:26,919
Speaker 1: back out and was healthy the rest of the way.

1132
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 1: One ninety nine for him. But we saw a little

1133
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 1: bit of Logan Diggs, who's their freshman. Even Jack Cone

1134
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,320
Speaker 1: was running, which tells you a lot about.

1135
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 3: He hit a nice touchdown run, right, yeah, yeah, for

1136
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 3: like a twenty some mind yard touchdown run.

1137
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:40,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1138
01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,440
Speaker 1: When Jack CON's getting his on the ground, you know

1139
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:45,600
Speaker 1: that the Carolina run defense has some improvement to do.

1140
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:52,480
Speaker 1: What I'll say about Carolina, and I said this to you, like, yeah,

1141
01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:56,160
Speaker 1: marginally better along the lines, If they're marginally better up

1142
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,280
Speaker 1: front both on offense and defense, if they have a

1143
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:02,440
Speaker 1: second receiver option for Sam Howell, they're like a ten

1144
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,919
Speaker 1: and two team. They're not that far away. Sam Howe

1145
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,720
Speaker 1: is so good. He was so far and away the

1146
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:11,439
Speaker 1: best player on the field yesterday. It's like not even

1147
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:12,920
Speaker 1: you can say what you want. You can make a

1148
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 1: case for Kien Williams. Okay, No dame had no answer

1149
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:17,960
Speaker 1: for Sam Howe. Now he's in there, he's got guys

1150
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 1: hanging off him. He's pointing receivers telling him where to go.

1151
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:23,480
Speaker 1: Like he's very heady out there. He knows what he's

1152
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 1: supposed to do with the ball. He just doesn't have

1153
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: a supporting cast, so there's only so much you can do.

1154
01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:30,840
Speaker 1: In that instance, he had three forty one through the air,

1155
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 1: ninety one yards on the ground, two total touchdowns. As

1156
01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:37,120
Speaker 1: a whole, I thought a good effort from him. He's

1157
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:40,120
Speaker 1: doing his best. He just does not have to support

1158
01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:43,560
Speaker 1: around him to manage. I think a better season for

1159
01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:46,240
Speaker 1: the tar Heels. But somebody's gonna draft him, and I

1160
01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 1: think be pretty happy because he knows what he's supposed

1161
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: to do out there and he carries himself like a

1162
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:52,480
Speaker 1: pro quarterback.

1163
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:55,760
Speaker 3: Conversation around Mack Brown will be interesting moving forward. Next

1164
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 3: year will be year four, I believe, right of Mac

1165
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 3: in Chapel Hill, year four. You should have depth, you

1166
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,720
Speaker 3: should have development, you should have Okay, this is what

1167
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:06,560
Speaker 3: went wrong in the first couple of years. This is

1168
01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 3: how we've adjusted. And disappointing the line of scrimmage this

1169
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:15,440
Speaker 3: season for North Carolina, disappointing the lack of weapons. At times,

1170
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 3: you know a guy will pop up here and then

1171
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 3: disappear for three weeks for North Carolina. And obviously Sam

1172
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 3: Howell's going to be gone after this season. But I

1173
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 3: think North Carolina has done kind of everything right off

1174
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 3: the field in terms of recruiting, but now it's just

1175
01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 3: converting that into in a wide open acc To not

1176
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:36,640
Speaker 3: have North Carolina as part of the conversation with Sam

1177
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 3: Howell as a third year starter got to.

1178
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:40,520
Speaker 1: Be pretty bumped.

1179
01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:42,880
Speaker 3: I'm not saying anything North Carolina fans already don't feel,

1180
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 3: but it's, you know, the opportunity was there with Clemson

1181
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,960
Speaker 3: slipping like they have and just weren't able to attack it.

1182
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 1: No, and it's been a rough year for Mac. I mean,

1183
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,320
Speaker 1: I think his brother passed away around labor Dah, Yeah, yeah,

1184
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,240
Speaker 1: you know, which which I'm sure was a bad way

1185
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:59,160
Speaker 1: to get off the start of a new season. But

1186
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,680
Speaker 1: of course he kind of looks miserable out there. Yeah,

1187
01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 1: a little bit, so a little bit. We will definitely

1188
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:11,040
Speaker 1: be revisiting the North Carolina thing moving forward. Elsewhere, we

1189
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:14,520
Speaker 1: had Clemson thirty to twenty over Florida State. Did you

1190
01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:16,640
Speaker 1: see the way this one ended? I did?

1191
01:03:17,040 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 3: Oh man, I don't bet college football. There are plenty

1192
01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:23,160
Speaker 3: of reasons to beat college football. You know, if you're worshiping,

1193
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 3: get the worshiping at the altar of Dan.

1194
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 1: I get it. I hear you.

1195
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,840
Speaker 3: That all makes sense to me. But then games like this,

1196
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 3: oh man, it was there was a there're just wild,

1197
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:34,640
Speaker 3: bad beats all over the sport every.

1198
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 1: Week, and this was the worst one.

1199
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:39,160
Speaker 3: This was It was like it was reminiscent of was

1200
01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:43,080
Speaker 3: it Northwestern Ohio State a few years ago? That ended

1201
01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 3: in like a fall, like a meaningless fall on an

1202
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:47,919
Speaker 3: end bumble in the end zone?

1203
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no touch Yeah, a horrible gambling beat. Clemson's

1204
01:03:51,560 --> 01:03:55,040
Speaker 1: up twenty four to twenty. Florida State's got the ball

1205
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:59,280
Speaker 1: twenty three seconds left, looking for a miracle. Clemson falls

1206
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:03,200
Speaker 1: on a fumble. They return it for a touchdown, the

1207
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:05,960
Speaker 1: walk off touchdown. They end up winning the game thirty

1208
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,320
Speaker 1: to twenty. They cover the nine and a half point spread.

1209
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,439
Speaker 1: This was your lock of the week. So really bad beat,

1210
01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 1: fat beat for me, ma'am. Bad beat.

1211
01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:17,160
Speaker 3: But really had had that had those points just until

1212
01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:17,920
Speaker 3: that last second.

1213
01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:22,960
Speaker 1: Good game for well Shipley one twenty eight two touchdowns

1214
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:25,960
Speaker 1: for Clemson, thought too, Yeah, don't know if it was

1215
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:28,640
Speaker 1: necessarily a better game for Dju, but.

1216
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:32,000
Speaker 3: It was it was he connected on throws to Justin Ross.

1217
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 3: He spread the ball around. Obviously, he's still a rhythmic

1218
01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:41,040
Speaker 3: as a Clemson quarterback, right, but still, I thought, relatively speaking,

1219
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 3: made more plays than usual. And I don't know how

1220
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:48,240
Speaker 3: encouraging it is, but it's better than getting worse.

1221
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, And on the Florida State side, I would urge

1222
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 1: Florida State people to correct me if I'm wrong here, Yeah,

1223
01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 1: because I zoom in and kind of only he grabs

1224
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 1: snippets here and there. I like Jordan Travis. I think

1225
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:08,439
Speaker 1: he's done an admirable job working with a line that

1226
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:13,760
Speaker 1: needs improvement or receiving corps that needs improvement. He also

1227
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:16,439
Speaker 1: holds onto the ball too, damn wall he does. There's

1228
01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 1: a lot of like double and triple clutches going on

1229
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 1: out there, where you wonder, is their guy open and

1230
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:26,720
Speaker 1: he's like afraid to throw it? Is he a beat

1231
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,480
Speaker 1: too late with making his reads. I clearly they think

1232
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: he's the guy, the best guy to put them in

1233
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 1: a position to win. But on some level, we've blamed

1234
01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:38,720
Speaker 1: everybody else on the Florida State side, right, we blame

1235
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 1: James Blackman for a while, and then we blame the

1236
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:44,400
Speaker 1: line and the receivers and the d like all these yeah,

1237
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:47,720
Speaker 1: all these other aspects of the game. It we may

1238
01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 1: want to look inward a little bit in question whether

1239
01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:53,080
Speaker 1: or not the quarterback is at all contributed to the problem.

1240
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,640
Speaker 3: I think he's pretty good. Like he he the best

1241
01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,080
Speaker 3: of Jordan Travis is really impressive. He can make plays

1242
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,600
Speaker 3: with his arm, make plays with his feet. By he

1243
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:03,480
Speaker 3: led Florida State to thirteen offensive points. Right, they had

1244
01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:06,240
Speaker 3: a scoop and score in this game against a Clemson

1245
01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 3: team that the defense is still very good, but you

1246
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 3: would think there has to be a higher ceiling. I

1247
01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 3: don't know if that's party. I don't know who, with

1248
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 3: who it is.

1249
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:16,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, but with whom?

1250
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think that's not an unreasonable take. But

1251
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 3: still a tough spot against this defense.

1252
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 1: Very tough spot. Yeah, And look, I thought Florida State

1253
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,200
Speaker 1: played a good enough game to win. Yeah, frankly against

1254
01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 1: a good defense.

1255
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:32,240
Speaker 3: But they were okay on third down, they won the

1256
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 3: turnover battle, they were able to score off of a

1257
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,040
Speaker 3: turnover like they did things that made this day up

1258
01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:41,360
Speaker 3: what twenty to seventeen in the fourth quarter. Yep, So

1259
01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:45,040
Speaker 3: he had them in position to win even without fireworks

1260
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 3: coming from that position.

1261
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 1: So elsewhere, still pretty good in the ACC. To close

1262
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:52,960
Speaker 1: things out, Virginia Tech wins over Georgia Tech. A solid

1263
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 1: game I thought for the Hokies. Big game for Trade

1264
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,400
Speaker 1: Turner through the air one to eighty seven and a

1265
01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:02,280
Speaker 1: touchdown we had, and add Sean Tucker two to oh

1266
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:06,040
Speaker 1: seven on the ground for Syracuse in a fifteen point

1267
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:11,560
Speaker 1: win over BC Wake Forest forty five to seven over Duke.

1268
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:13,360
Speaker 1: Wake has done it, Dan, They are now eight to

1269
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:15,360
Speaker 1: zero going into eight. No, like you called it, the

1270
01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 1: prophecy has come true. Sure for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

1271
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:24,480
Speaker 1: A monster game for Sam Hartman. Four hundred and two

1272
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:28,320
Speaker 1: yards through the air, sixty one yards, two touchdowns on

1273
01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 1: the ground. Who does Wake have left? In the month

1274
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:35,560
Speaker 1: of November, Wake goes to North Carolina. They're home against

1275
01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 1: NC State. They're on the road at Clemson, on the

1276
01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 1: road at Boston College.

1277
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 3: There's no definitive loss there now if Wake runs the

1278
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:45,800
Speaker 3: table and Sam Hartman and you pointed this out to

1279
01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,800
Speaker 3: me this morning that the ACC has an unusually long

1280
01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:52,200
Speaker 3: list of quarterbacks who must do everything in order for

1281
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:54,400
Speaker 3: the offense to succeed. They must run the ball, they

1282
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:56,920
Speaker 3: must throw for a bajillion yards and it all falls

1283
01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:59,720
Speaker 3: to them right between Brendan Armstrong, who's now beat up

1284
01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:03,160
Speaker 3: on four fortunately, Sam Howell, Malie Cunningham, I don't remember

1285
01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 3: who else, Garrett Schrader, there's eight guys. He must do

1286
01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:09,920
Speaker 3: it all in the ACC You're.

1287
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:10,640
Speaker 1: Right about Trey Turner.

1288
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:12,400
Speaker 3: And to be clear, he's a receiver he said through

1289
01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 3: the air. Yes, he was catching the balls through the

1290
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:17,240
Speaker 3: erect and Braxtonbourgmeister had a pretty good game and he's

1291
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 3: been beat up. So good to see Virginia Tech get

1292
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:24,280
Speaker 3: a road win Syracuse. I mean, just BC is in

1293
01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:26,639
Speaker 3: a tough spot. They can't really move the ball right now,

1294
01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:30,080
Speaker 3: and Syracuse is going to go to a bowl game.

1295
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 3: I presume, yes, I.

1296
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,400
Speaker 1: Would hope, so yeah. Better Louisville.

1297
01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,280
Speaker 3: Louisville did a nice job against NC State on the ground,

1298
01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:39,479
Speaker 3: really held them down. Devin Leary had that big play

1299
01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 3: on it was like the fake toss sweep and then

1300
01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:43,800
Speaker 3: a guy's open on the slot that opened things up

1301
01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,120
Speaker 3: for NSIS State and a nice win and nice bounce

1302
01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:47,880
Speaker 3: back win. Frenzy State, who I still believed to be

1303
01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:51,280
Speaker 3: a pretty good team Louisville just can't get things going

1304
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:54,599
Speaker 3: and not get things going, and the team, the offense,

1305
01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,200
Speaker 3: everything is moving in the wrong direction. I don't know,

1306
01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:58,960
Speaker 3: I don't know what to say. And as I mentioned

1307
01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:02,679
Speaker 3: Virginia BYU, I think BYU went up twenty one nothing

1308
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 3: right away. This was a game I was big on

1309
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:07,600
Speaker 3: BYU on And look, I know, I said, smother me

1310
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:10,040
Speaker 3: and baby Blue North Carolina's beating Notre Dame. I know

1311
01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 3: that my confidence is all over the place, sometimes on

1312
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:18,240
Speaker 3: the solid Saturday program. But body clock and elevation tie

1313
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:22,800
Speaker 3: is a hell of a combo. And for Byu jaren

1314
01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:26,120
Speaker 3: Holl but specifically Tyler Aljier to perform. And look the

1315
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,960
Speaker 3: Virginia defense, especially with what they gave up on the

1316
01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:31,479
Speaker 3: ground all season long, like it was ripe for the picking,

1317
01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:34,680
Speaker 3: especially situationally. But it doesn't help that Brendan Armstrong, who

1318
01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:37,680
Speaker 3: was really good, made some mistakes, but really good. He

1319
01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 3: goes out with what is said a rib injury.

1320
01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:40,600
Speaker 1: I think something like that.

1321
01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:44,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, just crazy, unfortunate. I'm gonna double DeVore this,

1322
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:48,280
Speaker 3: by the way, just because of the sheer number of drives,

1323
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:57,000
Speaker 3: this game might test my pipes. But punt, touchdown, interception, touchdown, punt, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, punt, touchdown,

1324
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 3: field goal, touchdown, punt, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, pat touchdown, punch

1325
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:04,800
Speaker 3: the missfield goal, touchdown, touchdown, fumble, touchdown, interception, touchdown down.

1326
01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:05,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, and.

1327
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:11,560
Speaker 1: You almost didn't get it all in there. That's so

1328
01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:15,439
Speaker 1: many drives hi one hundred and fifteen total points, over

1329
01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 1: thirteen hundred total yards and UVA three turnovers. Yeah, unreal, incredible.

1330
01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,760
Speaker 1: All right, and let's close things out with the Pac

1331
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,840
Speaker 1: twelve and a few other odds and ends The Starry

1332
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:33,320
Speaker 1: by Oregon Ducks Dan Anthony Brown. Your boy, he heard

1333
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,360
Speaker 1: the footsteps from you. You had a good game. He heard

1334
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: what you've been saying. He had that nice throw. He

1335
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:40,960
Speaker 1: had a guy draped on his one leg, just tossed

1336
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:44,040
Speaker 1: it over the middle. Colorado's real bad. But Anthony Brown

1337
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 1: looked pretty good this game.

1338
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 3: Anthony Brown looked good. I think he trusts his receivers

1339
01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:51,559
Speaker 3: a lot more. Maybe it's a Joe moorehead figuring out

1340
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,840
Speaker 3: what Anthony Brown does specifically well more than what he doesn't.

1341
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,400
Speaker 3: And so maybe there's just a little bit more of

1342
01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:59,680
Speaker 3: a rhythm between those two guys. Obviously, Joe Moore had

1343
01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 3: missed game the loss to Stanford where Anthony Brown looked

1344
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:04,760
Speaker 3: sort of all over the place and lost, So I

1345
01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 3: don't know what that had to do with it, but

1346
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,960
Speaker 3: a loss is a loss as a loss, and Oregon

1347
01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:12,320
Speaker 3: largely played backups and third stringers in the second half

1348
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:14,760
Speaker 3: after they went up comfortably and then Colorado scored a

1349
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:17,439
Speaker 3: little bit more. But Oregon's defense still, I mean, they're

1350
01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:19,439
Speaker 3: beat up and still need to do a much better

1351
01:11:19,479 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 3: job getting off the field. It was a wild day

1352
01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:26,040
Speaker 3: in the conference between Utah separating themselves in I don't

1353
01:11:26,040 --> 01:11:27,880
Speaker 3: know w what Chip Kelly's future is at UCLA, but

1354
01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:31,960
Speaker 3: separating themselves against the Bruins, Wazoo absolutely laying the wood

1355
01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:35,280
Speaker 3: against Arizona State, taking advantage of all sorts of mistakes

1356
01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:39,839
Speaker 3: and penalties and turnovers. Wazoo did a terrific job usc

1357
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,680
Speaker 3: hanging on to beat Arizona, and Drake London leaving that

1358
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:46,960
Speaker 3: game injured. It was just it was a wild day.

1359
01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:50,040
Speaker 3: Cal Ran all the hell over Oregon State. Washington was

1360
01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 3: able to win in weird fashion but impressive fashion, ultimately

1361
01:11:54,439 --> 01:11:58,320
Speaker 3: over Stanford, who they just got smashed by physically. It

1362
01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:01,479
Speaker 3: wasn't a blow out last year, but smashed by physically

1363
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:04,040
Speaker 3: last year, So good for Washington State. Dylan Morris with

1364
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 3: the clutch throw there it was. It was a fun

1365
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:08,639
Speaker 3: day in the in America's Conference out West.

1366
01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 1: Is ESPN trying to go full Rachel Phelps on Rod Gilmore,

1367
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:16,920
Speaker 1: Oh with the bad cameras every week, you know, in

1368
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 1: Major League when she takes away the hot tub and

1369
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,880
Speaker 1: then the bus, and then they're duct taping the propeller

1370
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 1: on the plane in the Indian Express Like, it just

1371
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:27,599
Speaker 1: seems like they're trying to take away all the luxuries

1372
01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:30,800
Speaker 1: that are required for a good game experience for the

1373
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:33,439
Speaker 1: home viewer. It helps that maybe Rod Gilmour will just

1374
01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:34,000
Speaker 1: pack it in.

1375
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:38,720
Speaker 3: Now, Rod Gilmour will outlast us all.

1376
01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:43,960
Speaker 1: It will outlast us all. Oh man, what a what

1377
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:48,760
Speaker 1: a terrible viewing experience That game was late at night. Yeah,

1378
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:52,559
Speaker 1: emotional night too, by the way, on the Utah side,

1379
01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,599
Speaker 1: retiring the number twenty two in honor of ty Jordan

1380
01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:58,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Lowe. You know, we've talked a little bit about

1381
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 1: that situation. But again Utah gets the job done, winning

1382
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,400
Speaker 1: by twenty over UCLA. I just did want to call

1383
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:07,080
Speaker 1: out I didn't. I didn't catch if you did or

1384
01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:10,160
Speaker 1: not here because I'm jockeying a bit with the controls

1385
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:14,880
Speaker 1: making sure this broadcast stays on track. But yeah, this

1386
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:17,840
Speaker 1: is the Arizona State we know and love, Dan. This

1387
01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:22,519
Speaker 1: is the Arizona State that has five turnovers at home

1388
01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:25,000
Speaker 1: after a bye against a team that just fired as

1389
01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:27,200
Speaker 1: coach like two weeks ago. This is the ASU.

1390
01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:29,639
Speaker 3: These two teams are down like an eight or nine

1391
01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 3: combined coaches. So this always had the potential to be

1392
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:36,559
Speaker 3: a disorganized mess, and Jazoo, to their credit, made place.

1393
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,720
Speaker 3: Jayden de Laura. I don't know how much of him

1394
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:43,240
Speaker 3: you have watched, but kind of a pop gun all

1395
01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:43,920
Speaker 3: star ty.

1396
01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:45,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, now he got a little bit in him.

1397
01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:48,080
Speaker 3: You might have to look a little bit more closely.

1398
01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,600
Speaker 3: I like both theon McIntosh and Max Borgie, and I

1399
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,200
Speaker 3: was fully prepared to think when I saw their line.

1400
01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:55,240
Speaker 3: When I watched this game, I was like, oh, by line,

1401
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 3: I mean stats. They ran hard, right, They got tough

1402
01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:01,400
Speaker 3: yards against what can be a tough asudense. The Washington

1403
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 3: State offensive line opened up lanes. These guys were untouched

1404
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 3: for four or five yards at a time running into

1405
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:12,519
Speaker 3: the ASU defense. So really impressive from Wazoo jumping on

1406
01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,800
Speaker 3: Asu like they did in the desert, So that was

1407
01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:17,920
Speaker 3: really nice. Drake London obviously left the game. He has

1408
01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,920
Speaker 3: been the entirety of USC's offense by way. Both Kiden

1409
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 3: Slovis and Jackson dart In on the action against USC

1410
01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:28,120
Speaker 3: and Kyanta Ingram ran wild, So I guess good for

1411
01:14:28,120 --> 01:14:28,719
Speaker 3: the Trojans.

1412
01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:33,559
Speaker 1: Finally, the closest bad boy out we had Cincinnati thirty

1413
01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:36,720
Speaker 1: one to twelve over two Lane kind of struggled to

1414
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:40,920
Speaker 1: pull away from sort of. Yeah, it was like every

1415
01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:44,360
Speaker 1: Cincinnati game ever, at least in twenty twenty one. It

1416
01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:46,080
Speaker 1: just takes them a little bit longer. I said it

1417
01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:48,920
Speaker 1: on we did a bit of a live stream to

1418
01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:52,400
Speaker 1: our Patreon for ballers. If Cincinnati had another eight minutes

1419
01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:55,200
Speaker 1: of gameplay in pretty much all their games, they would

1420
01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 1: destroy all of their competition. It just seems like it

1421
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,760
Speaker 1: takes them a little bit longer to settle into the

1422
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:02,679
Speaker 1: flow of the game. Once they did, they were fine.

1423
01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:05,280
Speaker 3: But and if you had wheels, you'd be a bicycle.

1424
01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:08,320
Speaker 1: That is also correct, thank you very much. What else

1425
01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:11,400
Speaker 1: we had Houston winning in dramatics. See how they won

1426
01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:16,679
Speaker 1: this dramatic fashion over SMU. SMU scores, they kick it off,

1427
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:21,559
Speaker 1: Houston returns one hundred yards the ensuing kickoff with eighteen

1428
01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:24,360
Speaker 1: seconds left to give them a forty four to thirty

1429
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:28,479
Speaker 1: seven victory over SMU. An incredible game that sort of

1430
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 1: got lost in the shuffle, I think for most college

1431
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 1: football fans. But a great quarterback duel. Clayton too won

1432
01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:37,959
Speaker 1: that one. Had four hundred and twelve yards four touchdowns.

1433
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:41,320
Speaker 1: Tanner Mordecai also a very good game three h five

1434
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:45,800
Speaker 1: three touchdowns through the air. But you're Houston Cougar's man.

1435
01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:49,480
Speaker 1: They got the job done. Knocked off SMU.

1436
01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:53,080
Speaker 3: Should mention dueling one hundred yard touchdown kickoff returns. SMU

1437
01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:55,840
Speaker 3: had one earlier on in the game. Houston came into

1438
01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:58,920
Speaker 3: the game as one of the worst kick return teams

1439
01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 3: nationally and wins the game with what seventeen seconds left

1440
01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:06,160
Speaker 3: on that return? Eighteen seconds? Yeah, eighteen seconds. So great

1441
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:09,320
Speaker 3: win for Houston and Dana Holgerson after what I would

1442
01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:13,639
Speaker 3: qualify or call an uneven start to his career in Houston.

1443
01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:16,479
Speaker 3: But the Cougar is getting it done, mate, got stops

1444
01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:19,559
Speaker 3: occasionally when needed. Clayton tune, as you mentioned a really

1445
01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:22,960
Speaker 3: nice performance by the way Fresno San Diego State. A

1446
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,280
Speaker 3: really impressive day for Fresno going against one of the

1447
01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:28,120
Speaker 3: best defenses in the country. Spreading the ball around. Jake

1448
01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,479
Speaker 3: Hayner gets it done, Jordan mins it. It was a

1449
01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:35,080
Speaker 3: really nice performance from Fresno as they become the sort

1450
01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:38,719
Speaker 3: of power in the Mountain West with that win. Coastal

1451
01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:42,280
Speaker 3: Carolina kind of hangs on. They were relatively impressive against

1452
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,680
Speaker 3: Troy at home. Troy some weird decisions there that was

1453
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:49,880
Speaker 3: was that Wednesday or Thursday days all blend together, ECU.

1454
01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:52,080
Speaker 3: I mean, they should have beaten South Florida and they

1455
01:16:52,080 --> 01:16:54,559
Speaker 3: did beat South Florida. Tulsa is going to be in

1456
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 3: kind of a weird spot because once every three years

1457
01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:00,599
Speaker 3: they look really impressive and this year they just don't.

1458
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:02,640
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's a Phil Montgomery thing. I

1459
01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:05,160
Speaker 3: don't know, but Tulsa goes down to Navy and they

1460
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:11,000
Speaker 3: do so late Otherwise in terms of performances across the.

1461
01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:15,240
Speaker 1: Scene, Scott Leffler got booted. I did see he got booted,

1462
01:17:15,320 --> 01:17:20,200
Speaker 1: got got two twice for unsportsman like conduct and got

1463
01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:21,799
Speaker 1: booted from bowling Green.

1464
01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 3: Utah State, and Blake Anderson are very quiet six and two,

1465
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 3: four and one in the Mountain West. They're gonna be

1466
01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:35,680
Speaker 3: in later season conversations. Otherwise, I think Steve Adazio has

1467
01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:38,519
Speaker 3: a leg injury or something. I think he was hurt

1468
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:40,240
Speaker 3: coming into the game. I don't think he got hurt.

1469
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:42,760
Speaker 3: It wasn't a Charlie White situation where got rolled up on.

1470
01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:46,400
Speaker 3: But they Poise State ends up coming back after falling

1471
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,160
Speaker 3: down thirteen to nothing, and Boise gets to five hundred

1472
01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:52,519
Speaker 3: under first year coach Andy Avlos. Georgia State over Georgia Southern.

1473
01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:55,719
Speaker 3: It's been a weird year for both of those teams.

1474
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:58,400
Speaker 3: San Jose State excuse me, gets to five and four,

1475
01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:00,120
Speaker 3: so they're on the verge of another Bowl game. It

1476
01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:02,360
Speaker 3: looks like with a win over Wyoming, who I think

1477
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:04,759
Speaker 3: started the year four and oh and has thus become

1478
01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:07,719
Speaker 3: zero to four in the Mountain West. If my math

1479
01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 3: serves app State with in a letdown spot after the

1480
01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:13,960
Speaker 3: Coastal win, comfortable win over Monroe, who has been a

1481
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:17,040
Speaker 3: bit scary to a bunch of teams this year. Otherwise,

1482
01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:19,320
Speaker 3: I kind of think that's all I have in terms

1483
01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:22,040
Speaker 3: of things that interest me. You know, Charles Harris first

1484
01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:26,080
Speaker 3: year coach for Marshall. They win thirty eight nothing over FIU,

1485
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:29,240
Speaker 3: which is always nice. I think that's all. Oh and

1486
01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:33,320
Speaker 3: I did see I think UTAP ahead of next week potential,

1487
01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:37,000
Speaker 3: you know, maybe game tay. They storm back to make

1488
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:39,759
Speaker 3: it a game late against FAU, but come up short

1489
01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:42,400
Speaker 3: and so UTAP falls to six and two ahead of

1490
01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:44,400
Speaker 3: I don't know even if I have my Roadrunners sound

1491
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:49,760
Speaker 3: ahead of their matchup against the undefeated UTSA, who were

1492
01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:50,719
Speaker 3: on by this week.

1493
01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 1: Dn dood alerts holds it out strong. Who we got.

1494
01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 3: Obviously, Tyler van Dim, Kenneth Wacker. What was the name

1495
01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:03,880
Speaker 3: of the Kansas State defensive end. You're gonna nail it

1496
01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:06,640
Speaker 3: one more time. I'm gonna make you Felix and you

1497
01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:08,400
Speaker 3: d k U Sama?

1498
01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:11,400
Speaker 1: How do you? How do you have a dude list

1499
01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:16,120
Speaker 1: without him? Obviously he was wonderful. Will Rogers, Yes, the institution, baby,

1500
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,519
Speaker 1: Tyler Bady. I don't know.

1501
01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:22,439
Speaker 3: I thought Anthony Brown was kind of a dude actually,

1502
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:26,120
Speaker 3: so I was happy to see that. Nikobe Dean, I mean,

1503
01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:30,559
Speaker 3: choose your Georgia defenders. That's fine, somebody said the BYU

1504
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:34,160
Speaker 3: scoreboard operator for all being able to keep up with

1505
01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:38,479
Speaker 3: that first half, will Shipley for Clemson, ran Well, Abram

1506
01:19:38,479 --> 01:19:42,080
Speaker 3: Smith for Baylor, Brandon Armstrong of course till he got hurt.

1507
01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:45,200
Speaker 3: Sean Clifford just for in a losing effort due just

1508
01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:47,679
Speaker 3: because of the plays he was able to make at times,

1509
01:19:47,880 --> 01:19:51,880
Speaker 3: I would say, And then was a Jaron Cage who

1510
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:53,760
Speaker 3: returned it. I was like, big dudes, right, So he

1511
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:58,000
Speaker 3: returns the rumbling, stumbling blobbody blah, Yeah, that was great.

1512
01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:01,679
Speaker 3: Kyroen Williams for Notre Dame. Who am I not playing

1513
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 3: especially well? Maybe it was an offensive line thing, but

1514
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:06,559
Speaker 3: Kyle Williams had that great run, goes for what nearly

1515
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:07,920
Speaker 3: two hundred yards.

1516
01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 1: One ninety nine a buck short.

1517
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:11,320
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1518
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:13,400
Speaker 3: And then, of course, as you mentioned, Kenny Pickett and

1519
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:15,280
Speaker 3: Jordan Addison in a losing effort.

1520
01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:17,599
Speaker 1: In a losing effort, those are the dudes.

1521
01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,200
Speaker 3: By the way, what about the Garber's family tie two

1522
01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:23,360
Speaker 3: sons starting pack twelve games at quarterback college football?

1523
01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:24,800
