Speaker 2: I'm a man, I'm forty.

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: I've heard so many players say, well, I want to

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: be happy. You want to be happy for.

5
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 2: Day Edith State?

Speaker 1: back to the solid verbal, boys and girls. My name

8
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: is Ty hilden Brandt. I am joined as always by

9
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: my good friend, my colleague, my co host, my California

10
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 1: co host of many years. His name is Dan Rubinstein. Sir,

11
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm good?

12
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: You sound very rested. That is that the case.

13
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: I haven't been at work for a couple of days. Yeah,

14
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: we haven't recorded upwards of a week. Now. I am recharged,

15
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm rejuvenated. I am ready for the stretch run here

16
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: of college football.

17
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 2: I love hearing that. So I'm in California right now.

18
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 2: I am in the bedroom in which I grew up.

19
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: So this is where I record generally when I'm visiting home.

20
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,040
Speaker 2: It's seventy degrees in sunny Tie, And once again I

21
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: would like to formally announce my not going home, not

22
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: dealing with the East Coast ever again because again I

23
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 2: have made the dumbest physical move of all time, going

24
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: from southern California to the northeast.

25
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: It was your decision, though it was a voluntary decision.

26
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 2: Yes, it was voluntary decision. But I went on a

27
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 2: taco crawl yesterday. I've been just like strolling outside at night.

28
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: I went outside on my laptop to prepare for this

29
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: show outside. TI is it not inside?

30
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: Yeah? It was wonderful out. Mom, glad you're enjoying yourself.

31
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: How's mom? Mom? Dad? Good? Everyone's good.

32
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: Everybody's doing well. Yeah, everybody's doing well. Been eating a

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: lot of food. And we'll get to the holiday talk,

34
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 2: I think after where we got a bunch of games preview,

35
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: a few games to review, some news to discuss. But

36
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: I still haven't seen Star Wars. I'm gonna go out

37
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 2: and see that tonight hopefully. Okay, I've got one of

38
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: those theaters with the reclining Yeah, that's where the plush chairs.

39
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: Yep. Man, god, I love it all. All right, let's

40
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: get to some news here. We had wucking news. Wow,

41
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: you're like a dying dog. I was terrible. I'm sorry. Okay,

42
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: we have a Randy Edzel dream job alert Dan. Oh

43
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: my god, I feel like I need a new sound

44
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: for this. Randy Edzel now back at Yukon. He left

45
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: what six years ago to pursue another dream job at Maryland,

46
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: but now he's back, seemingly better than ever, going back

47
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: to stores Connecticut where he had a lot of success.

48
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: I don't have any real hot takes on this move,

49
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: other than to say that it isn't all that often

50
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: where you have a coach leave than come back. It's

51
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: happened a couple times obviously in college football. Loar clearly

52
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: this is on the Mount rushmore of them being so

53
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: it's at Yukon, Dan and he hot takes here. Any thoughts, No.

54
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 2: I enjoyed our pal Spencer Hall, treating this like a

55
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 2: companionship marriage out of convenience and to show united front

56
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 2: for the kids, which is like, look, we don't love

57
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 2: each other, but we both want to explore the Greek

58
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 2: islands and go on some cruises later on. We both

59
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 2: like Indian food, we both like dark comedies, so you

60
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: know what, let's just let's just hang out. It's not

61
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: going to be passionate, but it's going to make sense.

62
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: Wasn't that sort of the plot of that Ryan Reynolds

63
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 1: Sondra Bullock movie. I forget the name of it. But

64
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: I think that was an immigration thing. Okay, close enough.

65
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 2: Listen, can I with authority tell you this is not

66
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: an immigration thing? And Randy Etzel is not a secret Canadian. No,

67
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: I can't tell you that, ty, That would be irresponsible

68
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: of me.

69
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: All right, Well, Randy Etzel's back at yukon a familiar face.

70
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: Not a whole lot breaking on the news front. We

71
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: can go through here and talk about some of the

72
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: bull results. But Kendall Briles, he's going to be offensive

73
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: coordinator at FAU. Nothing like Lane Kiffen injecting a little

74
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: bit more controversy into the situation bringing over a Briles

75
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: to help run the show down there at FAU. But

76
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: clearly an offensive mind, a bright offensive mind that I

77
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: think brings a lot of promise, just in a football

78
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: sense to the Owls.

79
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: Did you see the story Kendall Briles is in Atlanta

80
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 2: during Peach Bowl preparation with Lane Kiffin interviewing potential assistance.

81
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: So Lane Kiffin is in Atlanta, came planning and preparing

82
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: for Alabama Washington. Kendle Briles's new offensive coordinator is also

83
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: in Alabama, also in Atlanta, interviewing candidates in some sort

84
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 2: of like weird shady bobs from office Space. Yea, just

85
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,799
Speaker 2: like the two of them are allegedly shady, weird scenario.

86
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: But I mean it has coach good offenses. Yeah, that's

87
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 2: what I'm going to say. So, I mean I don't

88
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 2: anticipate talking about FAU all that much moving forward.

89
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 1: No, all right, any other news here before we get

90
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: some bold notes, I.

91
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: Don't think so there. I know Michigan in Penn State

92
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 2: both sort of said, look, there are injuries and there

93
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,679
Speaker 2: are suspensions in the case of Penn State for violation

94
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 2: of team rules. Who we're not saying we are, We're

95
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: withholding that information. So I guess that's I'm going to

96
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 2: keep track of moving forward in the next couple of

97
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 2: days if you listen to this show right away. But no,

98
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 2: nothing to extremely seeing. Some coaches move around a little

99
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 2: bit after bowl games. Some assistants position coaches, coordinators. Once

100
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,559
Speaker 2: the mess is totally sort of cleared from bowl games

101
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 2: and hires, we will sort of evaluate everything as best

102
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,799
Speaker 2: we can, which is not that high a level. But yeah,

103
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: the general the general fun after the bowl games, all.

104
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: Right, moving on, some bowl games, many bowl games actually

105
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: have already been played. Dan how's your bullpool looking. I

106
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: get started very strong. Yeah, I started real strong, and

107
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 1: now it's starting to come off to swivel a little bit.

108
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 2: I am going to load it right now. I want

109
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: to say I'm still in the eighties. I've gotten a

110
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 2: few recent ones wrong, but I started out pretty strong.

111
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,799
Speaker 2: Who is a top our bullpool? So I no, ninety

112
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: second percentile? That's not bad.

113
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: We're we're all doing okay. Because it seems as if

114
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,119
Speaker 1: again most people subscribe to the East Coast Eliott front

115
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: loading theory and got eighty three points right out of

116
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: the chute that helped booy the standings of not only

117
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: the group, but each each individual pool entry. Now's where

118
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: I'm starting to take on water. Like yesterday, We're recording

119
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 1: this on a Wednesday, Yesterday, Tuesday night. I took it

120
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: on the chin. I took it on the chin. Butck

121
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: good because the two cornerstones of my motivation theory for

122
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: picking games, Baylor and Minnesota both inexplicably found a way

123
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 1: to win that in conjunction with Temple losing to wake Forest.

124
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: That was pretty much all she wrote for me, So

125
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: I'd expect at some point, you know, it's just this

126
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: leak is going to catch up with me and I'm

127
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: going to fall out of like the ninetieth percentile. But

128
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 1: for now I'm hanging in because of the early point

129
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: totals that I was able to tally up.

130
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Minnesota and we'll get into this when we

131
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 2: talk about it the game specifically, but the Minnesota Wazoo

132
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 2: situation was interesting because you could do pretty well if

133
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 2: you're just choosing straight up in these games. You can

134
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: do pretty well picking against a Pac twelve team disappointed

135
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 2: to be in the Holiday Bowl, that is, in terms

136
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: of trends, that is a nice little pick that you

137
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: can count on. And obviously the dramat Minnesota sort of

138
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 2: throws a wrench into that possibility to do every year

139
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 2: when you have drama on the other side of it.

140
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 2: But typically there's a big twelve team, sometimes big ten

141
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 2: team that you know what, they came on strong late

142
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: in the season, super pumped to go to the West Coast.

143
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 2: In the case of Wazoo, they were playing for the

144
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 2: PAC twelve North, went pretty south pretty quickly against Washington,

145
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 2: the rival at home and didn't quite work out. But yeah,

146
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: that's something I overlooked.

147
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: That's on me. No all right, so here are some

148
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: notes that I jotted down. Army one and overtime over

149
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: North Texas. They rushed for four hundred and eighty yards.

150
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: That was not the story, though, was it.

151
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 2: No, the rushing attack of Army was very much not

152
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 2: the story, even though it was the best thing in

153
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 2: this game football wise. But North Texas is running back,

154
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: good running back. His name is not right in front

155
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 2: of me, Jeffrey. Remember Jeffrey Wilson. He scored, Jeffrey Wills,

156
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 2: he scored two touchdowns. I just kept on pukin, just

157
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: kept pukin on the field here too, foar.

158
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: We shall refer to Jeffrey Wilson as megapuke because he

159
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: did it twice in the same drive. If you were

160
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: watching the game, clearly you saw it. If you didn't

161
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: see it, you can go back and see the replay.

162
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: The first time he did it, he clearly caught his

163
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: quarterback off guard. They were both in the shotgun, about

164
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: three or four yards back of center. He proceeds to,

165
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: you know, go ahead and just explode everywhere. The quarterback

166
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 1: looks over like what the hell just happened? Center snaps

167
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: the ball a bit of a mad scramble to get it.

168
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: The second time was a couple of plays later. He

169
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: was on the other side of the quarterback, and this

170
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: time the quarterback just had no reaction, like it ain't

171
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: no thing. Ball snaps backstays into block. I don't know

172
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: what the outcome of the play was, but this might

173
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: be the singular funniest moment of all Bowl seasons so far.

174
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it goes without saying if he has actual

175
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 2: stomach and intestinal issues that he has to constantly fight through,

176
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 2: we hope he's healthy and good and everything like that.

177
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 2: But I should say this as somebody far softer than

178
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 2: this guy. If I puked like he did that first time,

179
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: I would totally take myself out of complete life commission

180
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 2: for a week, like, no, something is wrong with me.

181
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: My body is rejecting my very existence. I'm going to

182
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 2: hang out and eat a bunch of soup. That's my

183
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 2: life now, and I'm playing. Could have been a nervous thing,

184
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 2: you know, sure, all right? So Army one good for Army.

185
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 2: I had a ton of points in that that one.

186
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 2: That one helped me. One game that didn't was Wake.

187
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 2: I'm going in no.

188
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: Particular order here, just in the order of your house

189
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: but Wake scored thirty one straight points against Temple. After

190
00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: falling into an early seven nil hole, Temple tried to

191
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: climb back. They were unable to do so, but just

192
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: sort of a really nice effort here by Wake. I

193
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: did not see this one coming. I was all in

194
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 1: on Temple here. I should have subscribed my own logic.

195
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: When a team loses a coach, you bet against him

196
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: in bowl season. But I didn't do that. I thought

197
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: Temple would would finish a little stronger, and to their credit,

198
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: they did finish strong in the second half. They just

199
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: didn't play in the first half.

200
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, Wake defensively, and this is the sort of story

201
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 2: about Wake, especially because their offensive game plans I have

202
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 2: leaked the past couple of years. Defensively, I thought they

203
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 2: did a really nice job, even though Temple threw for

204
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 2: a bunch. I don't think Philip Walker I ever really

205
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 2: got into a rhythm throwing downfield a ton and they

206
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 2: shut down Temple on the ground, So you have to

207
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 2: feel good about that. I suppose, as a Notre Dame

208
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: fan that Mike Elcho that's his name, Mike Elko was

209
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 2: the architect of a much improved defense against a good

210
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: Temple offense, and even though Wake scored, I think they

211
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: only scored at the very end of the game in

212
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,199
Speaker 2: the second half, they did enough early on to finish

213
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 2: the season on a very high notes. After a much

214
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: improved and unexpectedly drama filled November December in.

215
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: The Point City of Bowl we had BYU winning twenty

216
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: four to twenty one over Wyoming Jamal Williams with two

217
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: ten on the ground do I.

218
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 2: See, Yeah, and his final college game had a great

219
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: showing and a nice year for Wyoming too, b YU listen.

220
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: Finishing out a very.

221
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 2: Tough non conference part of their schedule, a very tough

222
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 2: non com part so BYU cements their status as a

223
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: really good Mountain West team that just doesn't play in

224
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 2: the Mountain West.

225
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. And a good job, by the way by that

226
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: coaching staff.

227
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 2: Yes, first year, you know, to finish the season what

228
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 2: they finished nine and four with the Bowl game eight

229
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 2: and four beforehand, first year coaching Kalanie Sataki, they seemed

230
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 2: to really play to an identity. Even though Tanner Mangum

231
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: wasn't great. Nine wins with the Bowl game, it's a

232
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 2: very successful first year campaign, especially given what looked like

233
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 2: a very tough and complete schedule.

234
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: All right, Old Dominion won the Bahamas Bowl over EMU

235
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: Eastern Michigan. That was their first ever bowl victory. So

236
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: love it. Good for them, you tell the Bahamas and

237
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: when your first bowl game ever, well, not bad, not bad,

238
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: you're coming out ahead. Yeah, we had Louisiana Tech beat

239
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: Navy forty eight to forty five on a last second

240
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: field goal. This is one of the better Bowl games

241
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: so far. Fun game.

242
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 2: We talked about how prolific Louisiana Techs offense has been

243
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 2: this year with I think two thousand yard receivers and

244
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 2: they both came up big in this game. Ryan Higgins

245
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 2: continues to be a very underrated quarterback in the season

246
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 2: that he's had. And Navy for you know, the struggles

247
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: that they've had just staying healthy with whatever. The nineteenth

248
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: string quarterback that played in this game. Good for them

249
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 2: for coming to play against a pretty decent Louisiana Tech team.

250
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 2: And hey man, Skip Holtz, just listen if Brian Kelly

251
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: leaves early name canet I just big offense?

252
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 1: Got game call? Come on ty? All right, Law of

253
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: Tech wins forty eight forty five game. There were also

254
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: a collection of games that really just had me scratching

255
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: my head. Mississippi State wins seventeen to sixteen over Miami Ohio.

256
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: They win on a blocked, potentially game winning field goal

257
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 1: at the gun. This was the Saint Petersburg Bowl. You

258
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: may recognize it as having the worst turf in the

259
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: history of artificial turf. It's always been bad. It wasn't

260
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: just this year. If this was your first Saint Petersburg

261
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: Bowl experience, I was a little surprised that Mississippi State

262
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: had as much trouble as they did. However, the Gus

263
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: Raglan train man keeps on rolling for Miami Ohio finished

264
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: all year with seventeen touchdowns I believe to no interceptions,

265
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: So good for him.

266
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I always find when a bowl game finishes with

267
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 2: both teams ending the season six and seven, that's what

268
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: you're looking for on bad turf. But Nick Fitzgerald did

269
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: a nice enough job. He's not great as a thrower,

270
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 2: excuse me yet, but the put the team put the

271
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 2: offense on his back round for over one hundred yards,

272
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: and it's it's nice to have an experienced quarterback for

273
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 2: the system at which you play, So thank good for

274
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 2: Mississippi State and eking out a dumb win.

275
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: Another head scratcher, Boston College beats Maryland thirty six to thirty.

276
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: I play the shootout sound with the full working knowledge

277
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: that thirty six thirty is on the lower end of

278
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: what we'd consider a shootout. However, if you look at

279
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: the output offensively from both BC and Maryland this year,

280
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: clearly this is on the upper echelon of what each

281
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: team is capable of. Thirty six to thirty. BC wins

282
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: the quick Lane Bowl in Detroit the day after Christmas.

283
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: I believe, Yeah, that sounds right.

284
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: I guess a good way to go out for BC.

285
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: It was a really really frustrating offensive year for them,

286
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 1: So to score thirty six points against Maryland or really

287
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: just anybody, that's a nice little, you know, stocking stuffer

288
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: for him. Yeah.

289
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 2: With what Maryland left for DJ Durkin to play with

290
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball, making a ball is

291
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: decent enough. I can't really fault Maryland for the season

292
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 2: that they've had early on, or DJ Diurkin for their season.

293
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 2: BC losing their defensive coordinator love Dandy Don Brown, that

294
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 2: defense took a big step back. Coupled with the losses

295
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: they had on defense. So good for BC for finishing

296
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 2: the season out strong. Ty Johnson, who had a strong

297
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 2: opening of the season, had a nice day for Maryland.

298
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 2: Perry Hills did not get past the BMT or midst

299
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 2: a threshold of quarterback rating one point nine in this game.

300
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: Yeah good, that's not good, right, good for BC. All right,

301
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: another head scratcher speaking of shootouts, Holy crap. The Idaho

302
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: Potato Bowl, famous Idaho Potato Bowl, Idaho wins. I should

303
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: have stuck to my guns here. I should have uniformly

304
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: applied my theory of going against teams that lose their

305
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: head coaches and four teams that are playing relative home games.

306
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: Even though this game was five hours away from the

307
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: campus of Idaho, it was still in the state. It

308
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: was still the Potato Bowl, which is named after the

309
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: damn state. They win sixty one to fifty over Colorado State.

310
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: I did not see this coming. Great game for Nick Stevens,

311
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: four to forty five through the air, five touchdowns. This

312
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: one screwed a lot of people over in their bowl

313
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: pools because Colorado State was one of those teams. You

314
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: look at the SMP, you look at all of our

315
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: per play stats. They ranked very highly and had a

316
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: much better resume. There was nothing here to suggest that

317
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: Idaho would put up sixty one points. But well and behold,

318
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: they came to play. They're the ones. They win by

319
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: eleven points here in their home state Bowl Tato bowl Man.

320
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: Not a great night for pass defense enthusiastic, Nope, nope,

321
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 2: but yeah, both Matt Lenahan and Nick Stevens had very

322
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 2: nice nights. Furious comeback fell short for Colorado State. I

323
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 2: think they scored with thirty five thirty six in the

324
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: fourth quarter. Yeah, set all sorts of records and Colorado State. Yes,

325
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 2: they came in with a tunn of momentum, a very

326
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 2: strong November. But listen, you go up to Idaho, it's cold,

327
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 2: there's a blue turf. You know, all the locals are

328
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 2: probably rooting on Idaho. And a really nice showing for Idaho,

329
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 2: especially as they sort of, I guess in earnests begin

330
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 2: their transition to going fcs, which is a disappointment, especially

331
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 2: with a performance like this.

332
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: NC State klawberd Vanderbilt forty one to seventeen.

333
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 2: You know how, with certain coaches to say, you don't

334
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 2: give Nick Saban that much time to prepare. You don't

335
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 2: give Chris Peterson that much time to watch tape and prepare.

336
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: I'm fine with giving Andy Ludwig, offensive coordinator for Vanderbilt,

337
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 2: all the time he needs. I just listen. You want

338
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 2: an extra couple weeks? Do you want Wake Fores game plan?

339
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: Do you want?

340
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: What do you need? How can we help you?

341
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 2: I'm fine with giving Andy Ludwig that kind of time

342
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 2: because he had all that time and scored seventeen points.

343
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah, still a nice season for Vandy.

344
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: Anci State Claubers, I'm still nice year for Vandy.

345
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 2: Did Kyle Schumer pass the bar MIT's a thresholder quarterback rating?

346
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no, he did not. No, he did not,

347
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: absolutely not. And then finally the two again where I

348
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: said I took it on the chin Baylor b Yeah,

349
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: Boise State pretty handily and Minnesota won seventeen to twelve

350
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: over Wazoo Dan. Any thoughts here other than Katie Cannon

351
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: being virtually uncoverable.

352
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is nothing new for him. When the Baylor

353
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 2: offense is rolling, Katie Cannon has a lot of room

354
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 2: to run or room to catch passes, and this is

355
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 2: I believe it'll be his last game.

356
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,640
Speaker 1: For the Bears.

357
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 2: Zax Smith had a nice day, has a nice arm.

358
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 2: Boise State when they can't run, they can't do all

359
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 2: that much as a fishing as Brett Rippon is through

360
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: the air, he would he throw it fifty times. I

361
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 2: think both Boise State and Wazoo threw it fifty times

362
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 2: and scored twelve points each. Not a great rate on return,

363
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 2: great return. So nice season for Boise stayed one of

364
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 2: the more complete teams in the country. But Baylor, they

365
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 2: found motivation even with everything going on, and a nice

366
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 2: performance especially actually from that I was more impressed maybe

367
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 2: by the defense to shut down Boise's offense like they did.

368
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: All right, before we move on and talk about playoffs

369
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: in New Year's six Bowl games, what do we got

370
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: got to pay the bills here? Okay, let's do that.

371

397
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,120
Speaker 1: Really just at your fingertips, what I like about it

398
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: is that they guarantee you get the best deal in

399
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: every ticket because what they do is they compare the

400
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 1: prices on multiple ticketing sites. They know it can vary

401
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: depending where you shop. But what they do is they

402
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: grade out every ticket. They show you where you can

403
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 1: get the most bang for your buck. Every ticket is

404
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 1: given a grade based on value, so you're immediately going

405
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: to see where the underpriced seats are and you can

406
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 1: find whatever fits in your budget if you want to

407
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: get into the game. Again, every ticket is backed one

408
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: percent by their guarantee, which means that you can shop

409
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: with confidence you're not going to get scammed out of

410
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 1: your money. This has sounded pretty good so far, right Dan,

411

432
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:29,479
Speaker 3: Oh no, yeah, buddy, So what are you doing on

433
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 3: New Year's Eve twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen?

434
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: Damn? You got any special special plans here? Watching the games?

435
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: Taking the misses out to dinner? What you got in

436
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: the agenda?

437
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 2: I will not be taking still a mess out to

438
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 2: dinner because I'll be watching the games.

439
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe I'll cook, maybe I'll bring in food.

440
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: Maybe a couple Espionation and college football pals and New

441
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 2: York will come over. Haven't figured that out yet. I

442
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 2: will say this though, Ty, I am I was thinking

443
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 2: about it, and I genuinely this is this is not iron,

444
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 2: this is not I'm not blowing smoke. I miss Pitbull,

445
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 2: I missed bowling the Doctor Pepper commercials, and like I'm

446
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 2: I'm feeling real emotional about it. Actually, yeah, it took

447
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 2: Pitbull leaving my life to realize how much I missed him.

448
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't know what you got until it's gone. Yeah,

449
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna have a real good time no matter what.

450
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: But now I'm just gonna keep it low key, watch

451
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: these games. I don't like New Year's We've talked about

452
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: this before. Stay in, invite good people over, and enjoy

453
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: yourself speech chill well. Typically, my plan has been to

454
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 1: gather up some friends and we're not doing the all

455
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 1: night drinking thing at this point because we're a bunch

456
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: of old fogies. But what we've grown accustomed to do

457
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: in the last couple of years is we get a

458
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: really late reservation at a really good hibachi place. I

459
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: don't know how he came up with this idea, but

460
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 1: get a really really late reservation at a good hibachi place.

461
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: We go and eat delicious hibachi food, and a lot

462
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: of times we're back here at the house before the

463
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 1: ball actually drops. Last year was a complication because of

464
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: obviously the playoff games. This year, they're a little earlier,

465
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: so I think we'll be able to get away with it. Thankfully.

466
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: Watch ESPN came in handy. Thankfully, Alabama shut out Michigan

467
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: State last year, which also made life a little easier

468
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: to kind of fit everything in. But this time around,

469
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 1: we're going to get to this game momentarily. The Fiesta Ball,

470
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: I think has a lot of potential to be really

471
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: close and really fun. So I'm kind of on the

472
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: edge of my seat here a little bit as to

473
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: how I'm gonna make this all work.

474
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 2: But do you say about you mean like one of

475
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 2: those table they cook at your table? Oh yeah, table type.

476
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's good stuff, good stuff.

477
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: Let's start with the Chick fil A Peach Bowl, Dan.

478
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: They're putting this one on New Year's Eve again, hopefully

479
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: for the last time, but three pm Eastern time on ESPN.

480
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 1: They play it in the Atlanta, Georgia Dome. It is,

481
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: of course a contest between number one Alabama at thirteen

482
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: and oh and number four Washington at twelve and one

483
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: year PAC twelve champions. Alabama about a two touchdown favorite

484
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 1: about fourteen points. Stan, What did our nineteen ninety eight

485
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: college football simulations say about this game?

486
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:19,199
Speaker 2: Simulated NCAA ninety eight with Washington Alabama this morning as

487
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: we record this and thirteen ten Washington they held on

488
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 2: the really bad play calling late from Alabama back bad

489
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 2: clock management. Washington opened it up early and sort of

490
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 2: sat on the lead. And is it plausible that Washington

491
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 2: holds Alabama to ten points? We've seen it this season.

492
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, better LSU defense. I think it

493
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 2: is plausible.

494
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: If you were to tell me that this game finished

495
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 1: thirteen to ten one way or the other, I could

496
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: see that. Well.

497
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 2: That would also maybe suggest that it was a late

498
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 2: clutch field goal, which Alabama and kicking game. I don't

499
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 2: know if I can count on that. So maybe it

500
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 2: is Washington, all.

501
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: Right, So the old computer simulation, aside from that led

502
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: by brock Heward, I believe in nineteen ninety it was

503
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: brock Heward. Yeah, they had Washington winning thirteen to ten.

504
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: You can go on our Facebook page. Check it out

505
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 1: Facebook dot com, slash soliverable nice. I have read some

506
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 1: commentary that because Chad Kelly was able to throw the

507
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: ball on Alabama. There is preceitent for another strong arm

508
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: quarterback like Jake Browning to have the same kind of success.

509
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: Do you believe in Jake Browning having similar success against Alabama? No?

510
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 2: Maybe early, maybe early. He's able to move the ball.

511
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 2: It's a different system that ole Miss runs. It's also

512
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 2: an ole Miss team with really good big pass catchers

513
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 2: including Evan Ingram and I really like Washington's receivers. But

514
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 2: with the physicality of Alabama's defensive backs, even though Eddie

515
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 2: Jackson won't be playing, I think it's a It's an

516
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: especially tough matchup with what Washington's trying to do. They

517
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 2: run a lot pro style, and even though they're a

518
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,719
Speaker 2: multiple team, it's tough to go into the teeth of Alabama,

519
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 2: to say the least, especially against this front. Alabama's defense

520
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:13,479
Speaker 2: is basically perfect. And if you are going to succeed

521
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 2: against Alabama, we saw it a little bit with text

522
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 2: A and M. We've seen it with ole Miss over

523
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 2: the past couple of years. We saw it with Texts

524
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 2: A and M with Johnny Manziel. You got to do

525
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 2: it early. You have to be able to game plan

526
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 2: extraordinarily well and come out script it or whatever the

527
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 2: case is. Run pass option very very good early. Luckily

528
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 2: for Washington, that's how they play. They come out and

529
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 2: they punch teams really well, and that includes Jake Browning.

530
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,719
Speaker 2: He gets worse over the course of the game. Washington

531
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 2: runs the ball stronger over the course of the game.

532
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 2: I just think it's going to be such an impossible

533
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 2: task that they need to go up seventeen to three

534
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 2: and run the ball well if they even have a chance,

535
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 2: because Alabama is still probably going to come back and

536
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 2: take a lead even down that much early. On Alabama's defense,

537
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 2: everybody knows about Offensively, we're still talking about a freshman quarterback.

538
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 2: They've shown some struggles in the red zone. We saw

539
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 2: that that LSU game, and once again LSU's defense, especially

540
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 2: in the red zone, is better than Washington's. Defensively, Washington,

541
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 2: they're balanced, they have especially good defensive backs. They're without

542
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: two hugely key players in Joe Mathis their big ed

543
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 2: rusher and as Een Victor, their best linebacker or maybe

544
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 2: the best linebacker in the Pac twelve. I just don't

545
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 2: think Washington has the depth over four quarters. I love

546
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 2: the coaching staff, I love the adjustments they've made over

547
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 2: the season. But we saw in the limited sample size

548
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 2: of Washington against a defense as talented as Alabama's, not

549
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 2: as deep, but as talented, with the front and the

550
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 2: defensive backfield of USC, the receivers struggled to get open.

551
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 2: Jake Browning struggled to read the defense. I just don't

552
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 2: see it going all that well. I have Alabama crock

553
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 2: potting this game thirty to thirteen, thirty to thirteen, and

554
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 2: I honestly Alabama could win this game at the exact

555
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 2: same score that they beat USC, which was about fifty

556
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 2: two something like that. And this season has been an

557
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 2: overwhelming and crazy success for Washington, and this is all gravy.

558
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 2: I know Washington is taking this very seriously and they

559
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 2: want to win the national championship. Whatever happens for Washington,

560
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 2: it's an a plus of a season.

561
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree with that, Dan. We're at the

562
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: point with Alabama. You mentioned their defense is virtually perfect.

563
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: We're at the point with them where I think you

564
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: lose to Alabama, and people find it really easy to

565
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: just gloss over that if you're looking at a resume,

566
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: like oh, you just assume a loss to Alabama like

567
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: a ten in blackjack at this point. That is how

568
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 1: good the defense has been. I looked up their stats

569
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 1: because I think you're right. Washington needs to establish some

570
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: kind of running game have any shot at winning, and

571
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: that's gonna be hard. Alabama is allowing two yards per rush. Dan,

572
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: I want you to lay down on the floor in

573
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: your old bedroom. That's about one Dan Rubinstein body length. Yeah,

574
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: every rush, that's all they're allowing, which is incredibly stingy.

575
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: If you compare that to the next best rush defense

576
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: in college football, which on college football stats at least

577
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: according to average yards allowed per game, that would be Wisconsin,

578
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: they're allowing thirty three fewer yards than Wisconsin. They're also

579
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: the only team in the country that's allowed fewer than

580
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: a thousand rushing guards all year. They haven't allowed a

581
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: thousand rushing yards all season. They've only allowed eight twenty six.

582
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: So it's conceivable they could, with two really stellar defensive efforts,

583
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: hold everyone in like fourteen or fifteen games below a

584
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: thousand yards rushing, which is just incredible to me. They're

585
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: going to need that rushing game, Washington will if they

586
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: won't have any shot in this game. To my earlier point,

587
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: I like Jake Browning. He threw forty two touchdown passes

588
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 1: this year, which somehow gets glossed over. That's a really

589
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 1: good year. I don't think he can do it entirely

590
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: on his own the way Chad Kelly could. And you're right,

591
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: there were moments where he struggled against the USC defense,

592
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 1: against a Colorado defense, against some of the better defenses,

593
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: he had a real hard time.

594
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 2: He is so situationally different. Yeah, Like, in the first half,

595
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 2: his quarterback rating is through the roof. He's like, it's

596
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 2: like twenty eight touchdowns to four picks. In the fourth quarter,

597
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 2: he's not completing fifty percent of his passes. If Washington

598
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 2: doesn't stay ahead of schedule against Alabama, which is entirely possible,

599
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 2: if he's staring down the barrel of third and eight,

600
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 2: third and eleven's, he's nothing. He really is a completely

601
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: below average, underwhelming quarterback. That said, if he's connecting on

602
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 2: first and second down, he is virtually unstoppable. So Washington

603
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 2: staying ahead of schedule with Jake Browning in the passing

604
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 2: game is basically everything.

605
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is. And you're also right to say

606
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: about USC's line working over Washington when they played earlier

607
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: in the year. You have to assume that if us

608
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: CEA's line could do what it did, that Alabama will

609
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: have a lot more success because Alabama is just in

610
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: a different stratosphere. That's the first thing that I think

611
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: works against Washington. The other thing that I will throw

612
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: out there is something that I mentioned earlier on Washington's

613
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: very balanced, really on both sides of the football. I'm

614
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: confident that Chris Peterson's not going to be out coached

615
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: by Nick Saban. You give him time, I think you're

616
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: going to like the result. The difference though in this

617
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: game is something that we discovered when they played Arizona

618
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: back in September. Like, if you line up pro style

619
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: against Washington, I think you're kind of playing to their strength.

620
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 1: But if you line up with a really good spread

621
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: option attack and a mobile QB like Jalen Hurts, someone

622
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: that can run, I think that's the way to go

623
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 1: at him. Last year, Alabama didn't have that, to mention

624
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: with Jay Koker. This year with Jalen Hurts, clearly, they've

625
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: proven they could be really effective in that capacity. So

626
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: I think that's another thing that works to their advantage.

627
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's so much a crock potting,

628
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: but I'm feeling like thirty five twenty one, somewhere in

629
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: that range. I like Alabama to win to the tune

630
00:32:58,960 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: of like thirty three confident.

631
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, if Washington, Washington has a decent enough chance to

632
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 2: make this a game. But if they are going to

633
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 2: win this game, and we saw some struggles offensively against Colorado,

634
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 2: but they comfortably won that game, They're going to need

635
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 2: to flip the field maybe three times. They're going to

636
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 2: need to, like Washington touchdown drive nineteen yards, those kinds

637
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 2: of things for Washington to stay in this for four quarters,

638
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: because it is just a depth thing. Alabama gets stronger

639
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 2: over the course of the game. Washington is up and

640
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 2: down over the course of the game against the better

641
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 2: teams that they've played.

642
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: All Right, so we're both on the Alabama train. Surprise, surprise, correct. Okay,

643
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: moving on. Then there is another playoff game. We've got

644
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl. I've never gotten over them moving

645
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: away from Tostitos, but okay, we had a battle Frog

646
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: Fiesta Bowl a year ago. Apparently they don't have their

647
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: budget anymore to sponsor a big bowl game.

648
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 2: Frog lost the battle.

649
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: That's right. This one's played in Glendale, Arizona University of

650
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: Phoenix Stadium. This one is on New Year's Eve at

651
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: seven pm on ESPN. Ohio State eleven and one a

652
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: three point favorite against Clemson twelve and one. Ohio State one.

653
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 1: Oh they didn't win the Big Ten. My bad, they

654
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: did not. Ooh they did not. No, no, no, no,

655
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: Clemson won the ACC Dan, this is a great matchup,

656
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: I am. I am genuinely excited to watch this game.

657
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: I don't think that this game will be defined by

658
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: shutdown defense one way or the other. I think we

659
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: are jones in for a good old that shootout really

660
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: in the wild West, Dan, What did our computer simulations

661
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: say about this game?

662
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,760
Speaker 2: Twenty four to seven? Is what I'm saying right here. Yeah,

663
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 2: Clemson one comfortably.

664
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: So if I told you on January first that Clemson

665
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: won this game twenty four to seven, would that to

666
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 1: you be a practical outcome? Would that be something that

667
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: would be expected for you?

668
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 2: No, I would not expect Clemson to win this game

669
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 2: that comfortably.

670
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 1: I would not expect anyone to hold anyone under ten

671
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: points in this game.

672
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 2: When I see Ohio States offense, I feel concern because

673
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 2: given the talent they had, and it's defensible given j T.

674
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 2: Barrett taking a step back with a new look offensive line,

675
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 2: partly a lot of new skill players a second year

676
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:22,280
Speaker 2: without Tom Herman.

677
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: It certainly you.

678
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 2: Could have expect a little bit of regression, but the

679
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 2: fact that they fell as far as they did offensively

680
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,280
Speaker 2: later on in the season against decent teams, that was disappointing.

681
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 2: They've struggled to generate ten plus yard chunk plays and

682
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 2: just haven't been at all consistent. Ohio State's defense is

683
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 2: flat out grace and it would not surprise me if

684
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 2: they completely shut down Clemson because there's so much talent

685
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 2: on that Ohio State defense in depth on that defense,

686
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: which is crazy considering how much they lost before the season.

687
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 2: Clemson's offense especially can play into that because there's just

688
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 2: been too many turnovers from Clemson this season considering the

689
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 2: talent and experience they have on offense. But that said,

690
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 2: if Sums is able to run the ball with any

691
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 2: sort of vigor and excitement and success, they become a

692
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 2: pretty unstoppable offense when you have to concern yourselves with that.

693
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 2: Clemson's defense specifically, I like their height. They start out

694
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 2: games really really well, but by the end of games.

695
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 2: Clemson's defense We've seen this weekend and week out against

696
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 2: some of the better teams on their schedule. Louisville had

697
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 2: a big second half, Virginia Tech came back and made

698
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 2: it interesting. Clemson's defense starts out games just looking like

699
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 2: a wall, and then they end games.

700
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:36,320
Speaker 1: Just excuse me, just I just eat some box.

701
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 2: Out, really worn out and tired, especially against the run.

702
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 2: That's what concerns me against Ohio State. That said, in

703
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 2: a game with so much talent and so much to

704
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 2: like between the two teams, I'm going with the better quarterback.

705
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: That's just what I'm going with. I have Clemson here

706
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 2: even as what three three and a half point dogs.

707
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 2: I have them winning twenty four to twenty. I think

708
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 2: they formulate away and I just I have too much

709
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 2: concern about the Ohio State offense to take the Buckeyes.

710
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I share your concern. JT. Barrett passing

711
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 1: against Clemson, to me, is is an issue. Clemson's been

712
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,720
Speaker 1: real good against the pass. J T. Barrett quite frankly,

713
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: has not been good throwing the ball as of late.

714
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: The stats aren't terrible right, they're not terrible. If you

715
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: look at the stat line, you're not going to look

716
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: at it and say, oh my god, he's awful. It's

717
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: not that bad. But you need to watch the games.

718
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 1: In the Michigan game, he was not comfortable at all

719
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,240
Speaker 1: in the pocket. No, and he did get better in fairness,

720
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 1: he made some big throws when he had to later

721
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: in the game. But I feel like his arm is

722
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 1: a real liability here. I would like to see somewhere

723
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 1: in the range of twenty five to thirty passing attempts

724
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: for him, some shots down the field. They got to

725
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: get vertical in the passing game. If they won't have

726
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 1: any chance. It will open up the run game. It'll

727
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: make that aspect of their offense better. In the Michigan

728
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: and Michigan State games, there's just too much short stuff.

729
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 1: They didn't air it out, so they they need to,

730
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 1: I think, try and establish that early. It will open

731
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,879
Speaker 1: up that run game early, it will open it up late.

732
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: What I like. What I like about Ohio State is

733
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: that they've been wildly efficient on offense. Bill Connolly said

734
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 1: that they peck and poke at you five yards at

735
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 1: a time, which I thought was a really good way

736
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 1: to characterize his offense. So I'm not super confident in

737
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:32,359
Speaker 1: this result, but I do side with you, and I

738
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 1: think in the biggest games of Clemson's season a year ago,

739
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 1: they turned the ball over to Deshaan Watson, and I

740
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: don't know if it was so much a game plan

741
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,479
Speaker 1: as it was, hey, man, go win us the game.

742
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: And in those games we saw he was just really

743
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 1: good with his legs, far more rushing attempts down the

744
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: stretch for Clemson than in the early going last year,

745
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 1: and I think that trend's going to continue. I saw

746
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 1: it written. It might have been Bill Connolly again who

747
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: mentioned that nobody's better at the hopeless third and seven

748
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: situation than Deshaun Watson. He just finds a way to

749
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: get it done. So I think the outcome of this

750
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 1: game ultimately comes down to what he's able to do.

751
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: And I've learned over the last two years that you

752
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: shouldn't doubt that. Yeah, you shouldn't doubt that. The reason

753
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: I think it's a shootout is because there will be

754
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: games this year where Ohio State's given up points and certainly,

755
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Clemson's run out of gas defensively against

756
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: the best teams on their schedule, They've given up a

757
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 1: lot of points. So I just think it's gonna be

758
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 1: one of them games. I think a shootout. I think

759
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 1: a tight game. I think Clemson wins forty one to

760
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 1: thirty eight.

761
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 2: Wow, third forty one? What is that it combined seventy

762
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 2: nine points.

763
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 1: Forty one to thirty eight.

764
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 2: I would love for that to be the case. And

765
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 2: I think you hit something dead on talking about Ohio

766
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 2: States offense pecking at teams they at least as of

767
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 2: a couple weeks ago. I don't know if it's changed

768
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 2: with any Bowl results, Probably not, because that's just First

769
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 2: Conference teams. Ohio State's short yardage third down offense, like

770
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 2: third and one to three, their success rate was something

771
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 2: crazy high on the ground. It's like they were converting

772
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 2: like eighty four percent or something. I don't have the

773
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 2: numbers in front of me, but something crazy high of

774
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 2: those short yardage downs, short yardage third down situations, which

775
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 2: is just backbreaking for a defense looking to get off

776
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,279
Speaker 2: the field, you know, holding a good team getting to

777
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 2: third down whatever and having the opportunity to get off

778
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 2: the field, especially at Clemson defense that as we've both mentioned,

779
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 2: now sort of gets tired over the course of the game.

780
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 2: That I think is going to be so huge for

781
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 2: Clemson to get off the field as often as possible early.

782
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: All Right, so we both have Clemson. Yes, I don't

783
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 1: know if either of us is wildly confident in that result.

784
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 1: I like Clemson a lot, but this is a matchup

785
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: between two really good teams and they're here for a reason.

786
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 1: I'm glad they're in this matchup, and I'm just gonna

787
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: go with my heart here and say the Tigers win

788
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: close one. You know what else? We have tie for

789
00:40:54,880 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: both of these games. M swagwag. What's the play off

790
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: swag situation?

791
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 2: We got swag Alabama, Washington and the chiffil A Peach Bowl.

792
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 2: Three hundred dollars visa gift card by income whatever that

793
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 2: is JBL bluetooth speaker. Okay, I think that's always useful

794
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,919
Speaker 2: A fossil watch in a football I like three hundred

795
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 2: visa card. Just do what you gotta do. Great, Any

796
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 2: thoughts about any of those gifts.

797
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 1: No, that's that's fine, standard standard. I'd like to know

798
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,240
Speaker 1: what InCom is. It sounds like a worried It sounds

799
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 1: like an off market betting type of website. But okay,

800
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 1: mm hmmm mm hmm.

801
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 2: At the Fiesta Bowl, we have a gift suite or

802
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 2: a PS four game, an accessory bundle. We've got a

803
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,720
Speaker 2: backpack tie. Do you have a guest for the brand Agio?

804
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:47,760
Speaker 2: It is Aio, absolutely, a fossil watch and a football

805
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 2: there as well, So I guess it's probably a better

806
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 2: depending on what's the gift suite at the Fiesta Bowl,

807
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 2: and it's not going to be Tostito's going to be

808
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 2: Tostito looks like the Peach Bowl they went.

809
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: Speaking of food, Dan, we got to pay some bills.

810
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 2: Okay, what do you got. I'm ready to talk about food.

811
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 2: I'm ready to hear you possibly mispronounced something.

812
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: I have something here that says, talk about your personal

813
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: experience with Blue Apron. Oh, let's hear it. I'm peeling

814
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 1: back the curtain a little bit here. I feel I've

815
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: talked about my personal experience time and time again on

816
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 1: the program. Sure, I had a great personal experience with

817
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 1: Blue Apron. They send you everything you need, they send

818
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: you exact instructions for how to cook it. There's minimal waste.

819
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 1: The packaging on this is beautiful and above all else.

820
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 1: You know, you got good ingredients and the food itself,

821
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: the meal that you're cooking for you and yours is wonderful.

822
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 1: It was a magical experience. Solid wife looked at me yearningly, longingly. Wow,

823
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 1: the fresh set of eyes. Dan, after I cooked this

824
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: Blue Apron meal for her.

825
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 2: Give it to me, ty, that Blue Apron dinner.

826
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: That's right, baby. For less than ten dollars a meal,

827
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,920
Speaker 1: Blue Apron can deliver seasonal recipes to you and yours,

828
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: along with pre portioned ingredients to make delicious home cooked meals. Dan.

829
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: They know that when you cook with incredible ingredients, you

830
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 1: make incredible meals. So they set the highest quality standards

831
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: for their community of artisanal suppliers, family run farms, fisheries

832
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: and ranchers. So that means whether it's Japanese ramen noodles

833
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: or Alaskan salmon air with tomatoes, Blue Apron is always

834
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: bringing the noise, bringing the funk, bringing the best, Dan.

835
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 1: That's true. Here's what they got in December. Here, Oh,

836
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: here we go.

837
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 2: Cracking my knuckles.

838
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna try this all right, cracking my knuckles.

839
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: Roasted pork and braize cabbage along with barley and glazed apples,

840
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: but I pronounce apples correctly. For one tie green coconut

841
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:46,879
Speaker 1: curry with sweet potato and.

842
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 2: Jasmine rice, okay, two for two and finally delicious sounding

843
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,359
Speaker 2: things and in pronunciation.

844
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 1: Brown butter and chestnut miyoki. You're getting You're getting there

845
00:43:57,600 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: with Brussels sprouts and pea shoot salad.

846
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 2: Okay, that sounds good. That sounds really good.

850
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 2: What is your number one? Just in terms of cooking

851
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,240
Speaker 2: for yourself? This is just like a forty five second tangent.

852
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 2: I was thinking about this the other day because when

853
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 2: I'm home I have these thoughts. What is your number

854
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 2: one come home from school, like middle school, high school,

855
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 2: after school snack that you would make for yourself.

856
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 1: I was always a big nacho's and cheese kind of guy.

857
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 2: Really like in the microwave, in the toastrave, and.

858
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: Usually usually in the microwave. Yeah. I realize they're not

859
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 1: sponsoring this, but I'd pop on a few toastitos, some

860
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: tortilla chips, sprinkle some cheese on it, run it in

861
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: the microwave for like twenty seconds. That's a great call.

862
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,399
Speaker 2: And this actually, it just speaks to the fact Blue

863
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 2: Apron it makes it just as easy as throwing some

864
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 2: chips in the microwave.

865
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: You just you have all the ingredients already. But it's mindless, Dan,

866
00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: It's incredible. You know what I did.

867
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 2: This was one more step than a nacho microwave English

868
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:06,320
Speaker 2: muffin pizzas.

869
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's a pro movie.

870
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 2: I'd slice open an English muffin, throw whatever jarred tomato

871
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 2: sauce we had in some shredded mozzerrelchies, thrown in the toast,

872
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 2: droving for two or three minutes.

873
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 1: Wonderful. That's a good move. Yeah, yeah, I.

874
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,399
Speaker 2: Recommend it now if anybody's looking for a real dumb

875
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,320
Speaker 2: thing to cook for yourself, that's also delicious.

876
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,560
Speaker 1: English muff and pizzas still good. So either nachos and cheese,

877
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: English muff and pizza or clearly launchable is always an option.

878

Speaker 1: I am Dan, but do better, do better? Do better?

887
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: Do this one on Friday night, December thirtieth, at eight

888
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: pm Eastern Time on ESPN. It is the Capitol One

889
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: Orange Ball Live in hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.

890
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 1: Good matchup here, Michigan at ten and two a six

891
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: point favorite over Florida State at nine and three. This

892
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 1: is a matchup, I think between two fan bases that

893
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: have hated us at one point in time or another.

894
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so.

895
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 1: Is that fair to set back? Yeah? Yeah, absolutely. We've

896
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: got fsu Twitter, which came at us literally with the

897
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 1: fire of a thousand suns a few years ago. Figuratively yes,

898
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: and then Michigan fans who come at you at weird times.

899
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,360
Speaker 1: They're a little more sensitive. You never know what's going

900
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 1: to set them off. But both fan bases are are

901
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: very proud of their teams and very vocal on Twitter

902
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:59,880
Speaker 1: and elsewhere. I am stunned, quite frankly, that the S

903
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,360
Speaker 1: and P Plus has Michigan winning this one by a

904
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 1: projected margin of eleven point eight points. Yeah, does that

905
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 1: make sense to you? On a certain level. It does.

906
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 2: Michigan has had times where they've been able to throw

907
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 2: the ball downfield really well, and that would take advantage

908
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 2: of both Florida State's weakness and injury part of their schedule.

909
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 2: They've gotten better defensively, as have they've gotten healthier. Michigan

910
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 2: has done it against lesser teams, and I would define

911
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,719
Speaker 2: Florida State as a lot of things, but not as

912
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 2: a lesser team. They're talented. They rushed the passer really well.

913
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 2: DeMarcus Walker is as talented a pass rusher, perhaps as

914
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,320
Speaker 2: we have He's underrated in the country. Michigan will generate

915
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 2: longer touchdowns, but not a ton of longer plays. Defensively,

916
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 2: Michigan we know is lights out. We expect them to harass.

917
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,800
Speaker 2: We've seen the destruction heaped upon DeAndre Francois this season.

918
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 2: I expect nothing less from Michigan. It's pretty impossible to

919
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,919
Speaker 2: move the ball through the air against the Wolverines. Good

920
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 2: or bad teams Dalvin Cook is playing in this game,

921
00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 2: which makes things interesting. I think that's just from a

922
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 2: pure football porn perspective, Dalvin Cook and that rushing attack

923
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:09,360
Speaker 2: against Michigan's defense should be really fun. Florida States offense

924
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,280
Speaker 2: can stall out a little bit, but they do generate

925
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:16,919
Speaker 2: a lot of bigger plays, and I think if all

926
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 2: things being relatively not equal but competitive, I think Michigan

927
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 2: has better lines, and in a situation like that, I

928
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 2: think Jim Harbat will have this team prepared. I don't

929
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,880
Speaker 2: think there will be a hangover from being disappointed that

930
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 2: they're not in the bowl game. I just don't think

931
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 2: Michigan's offense at this point against a good enough defense

932
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,760
Speaker 2: is good enough to run away from this much talent.

933
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 2: So I have Michigan here winning but not covering. I

934
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 2: have at twenty seven to twenty four Wolverines.

935
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have jotted down here Michigan wins, but I

936
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: would take the points if I were actually betting money

937
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 1: against a point spread. Here, I'm with you. I like

938
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 1: Michigan's defense. I think more than any other entity in

939
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 1: this game, there are no weaknesses. It's very difficult to

940
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 1: find a matchup on paper anyway. That you look at

941
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 1: and you say, hey, that favors Florida State. I don't

942
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 1: see that, and I agree with you. Harball is going

943
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,240
Speaker 1: to have them ready to play in this game. If anything,

944
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: not a hangover, but maybe a lot of angry emotion here,

945
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,280
Speaker 1: given the fact that they were dropped below Penn State

946
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,799
Speaker 1: in the final committee rankings. I think that's something that

947
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,479
Speaker 1: Jim Harball might use to his advantage. So I think

948
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:31,279
Speaker 1: this is a really great game. I think it's a

949
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 1: close game. There are a lot of statistical similarities on

950
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:39,239
Speaker 1: offense between these two teams, which bears mentioning. If you

951
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:43,439
Speaker 1: look at their rushing production, their quarterback rating, things like that.

952
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 1: I think it's close. I think Michigan wins. I don't

953
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 1: think they cover. I'm not uber confident in it. I'll

954
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 1: say Michigan to the tune of seventeen confidence points.

955
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:56,840
Speaker 2: Stan, Wow, Okay, I think I'm about there with you.

956
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,760
Speaker 1: Michigan wins. What's our orange Ball situation?

957
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 2: Orange Balls wag situation is by the way, Ty, every

958
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 2: so often, it strikes me that you would make for

959
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:10,360
Speaker 2: such a great strip club DJ. Your voice is so

960
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 2: good and you are able to generate so much enthusiasm

961
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:16,799
Speaker 2: where I could see you being very good at that

962
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 2: if everything else in your life fails and goes to hell. Yeah,

963
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,720
Speaker 2: I think you will have a consistent gig like Brandy

964
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 2: to the Stage. Fellows, Fellows, Fellas. Brandy's brought to you

965
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:32,799
Speaker 2: by Blue Apron Coming to the stage now, yeappers, Yeah,

966
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 2: you asked what the swag is for this game. Yes,

967
00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 2: it's a strip club, DJ Mike. It's December thirtieth, So

968
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,319
Speaker 2: I'm seeing a gift suite, a Torneau watch, and a

969
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 2: shut mini helmet. Depends on what's in that gift suite.

970
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 2: We got to get not all that enticing.

971
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 1: We got to get a henchman to sneak inside the

972
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,840
Speaker 1: gift suite with like those spyglasses to let us know

973
00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 1: what's in there. Oh yeah, that's what I'd like to see.

974
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,480
Speaker 1: All right, Uh well, stay in the great state of Florida.

975
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:10,360
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Outback ball Dan Monday, January second,

976
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:13,239
Speaker 1: at one pm on ABC. We've got Florida at eight

977
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,239
Speaker 1: and four, a two and a half point favorite over

978
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:22,359
Speaker 1: Iowa at eight and four. Right, my only note here,

979
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen has been rough on a lot of fronts.

980
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:30,800
Speaker 1: I believe that the outback bawl is proof that twenty

981
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: seventeen might not be much better. True. I get why

982
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 1: Iowa fans would want to travel to Florida in January.

983
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 1: What I can't, for the life of me, understand is

984
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:42,680
Speaker 1: why anyone in the state of Florida would want to

985
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 1: travel this game. You know, if you're not motivated by warmer,

986
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 1: nice or weather, what is this game giving you on

987
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:52,760
Speaker 1: a personal emotional level that you can't just get going

988
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,840
Speaker 1: somewhere else on Monday or watching from the comfort of

989
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 1: your couch on Monday.

990
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 2: You're getting two teams who are yet to solve the

991
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 2: riddle that is ten plus yard plays. Iowa is I

992
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,759
Speaker 2: think one hundred and fourteenth. Florida is ninety fourth at

993
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 2: those ten yard plays per play, the frequency at which

994
00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 2: they can generate. Those two teams that have one really

995
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 2: cool win this year Iowa with the Michigan game, Florida

996
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:27,399
Speaker 2: with the LSU game, and then just disappointment. Disappointment. I mean,

997
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 2: the defense was good for both of these teams, but

998
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,360
Speaker 2: offensively just nowhere near where it should have been considering

999
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 2: either what they brought back or the talent on hand.

1000
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 2: So the game might make for a nice screen saver

1001
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 2: if you happen to be having people over for a

1002
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 2: delayed New Year's Day Bowl watch because it's on the

1003
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 2: second and you're eating some sandwiches and football is always fun.

1004
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 2: But that's all it's given you, screensaver.

1005
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 1: Someone is winning this game ten to nine.

1006
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 2: I have fourteen thirteen Iowa.

1007
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 1: I think it's easy to look at this game and

1008
00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: say that Iowa can't score on Florida. But then the

1009
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 1: closer you look, the more you realize that iowa Was

1010
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 1: defense is good enough to hold down Florida's offense, which

1011
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:08,279
Speaker 1: was way worse than Iowa's this year. Right, So I'm

1012
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,800
Speaker 1: gonna go Iowa here, and I'm gonna say ten to nine,

1013
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna put two points on it because I

1014
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 1: am not at all confident. Yeah, that's I think I

1015
00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 1: have a six pointer for this one. What is the

1016
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:18,919
Speaker 1: gift situation here? It better be good.

1017
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 2: A gift suite appearance, a fossil watch, a coin, a cap,

1018
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 2: a beanie, a Duffel bag made by whom whom, Yeah,

1019
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:32,760
Speaker 2: I'm asking you, oh uh agio, absolutely, and a big

1020
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 2: game autograph.

1021
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: Football depends on the gift suite. They should at least

1022
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 1: give him a bloomin onion, you.

1023
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:40,719
Speaker 2: Would think, so, right, or I would like so have

1024
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:42,760
Speaker 2: them have some bloomin's in the locker room.

1025
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1026
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,880
Speaker 2: I mean you'd get a North Texas situation across the

1027
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 2: board if there were blooming onions in the locker room.

1028
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 1: No rules, just right. The out Back Ball in Raymond

1029
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: James Stadium. Okay.

1030
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 2: I so, our pal Ryan Nanny is from the great

1031
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 2: city of Tampa, which we're going to Tampa soon. We

1032
00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 2: are going y So Outback Steakhouse was born, was created

1033
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,800
Speaker 2: in Tampa, Florida. The owners of Outback Steakhouse, according to Ryan,

1034
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 2: have never been to Australia and they just started with like, yeah,

1035
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:19,359
Speaker 2: we get it. This is what they'll probably eat there.

1036
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:24,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, okay. That's the Outback Bowl, the Goodyear Cotton

1037
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 1: Ball and at and T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Also

1038
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:31,360
Speaker 1: on Monday, this one at one pm. It's on ESPN.

1039
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 1: We've got Wisconsin at ten and three. They won the

1040
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: Big Ten. West Dan Near won the Big Ten as

1041
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 1: a whole six and a half point favorite over Western Michigan.

1042
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,799
Speaker 1: The Cinderella, if you will of this New Year's Six

1043
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: Bowl season they finished undefeated. The only other undefeated team

1044
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: outside Alabama. PJ. Fleck has the Broncos at twelve and

1045
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 1: O Dan, how do you feel about this game? Are you?

1046
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 1: Are you confident in Wisconsin's ability to win this football game.

1047
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,399
Speaker 2: It's a nice matchup for Wisconsin. And I don't say

1048
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 2: that just because Western Michigan is a MAC team. I

1049
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 2: say that because Western Michigan's defense will give up big

1050
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 2: plays and Wisconsin's offense, as much as they've struggled, if

1051
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,759
Speaker 2: you give them a little bit of room, they have

1052
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 2: the running game to take advantage. Now, Wisconsin could be

1053
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:23,439
Speaker 2: one of those teams they were playing for the Big Ten.

1054
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 2: They didn't get it done, especially later on in that game,

1055
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 2: lost in I wouldn't say heartbreaking fashion, but disappointing fashion

1056
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,400
Speaker 2: with the lead that they had against Penn State. So

1057
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 2: it's hard to say they'll be disappointed to be in

1058
00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:36,200
Speaker 2: the Cotton Bowl, but it's certainly a come down from

1059
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 2: you know, if they are out in Pasadena against USC

1060
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 2: they you know, they travel so well, a lot of excitement.

1061
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 2: Wisconsin's been in the Rose Bowl so often it's almost

1062
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 2: like a second home. This past I don't know decade

1063
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 2: or so and to go to the Cotton Bowl to

1064
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,239
Speaker 2: play against the MAC team, it certainly doesn't have the cachet.

1065
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 2: Do you know how many ranked teams to flip that

1066
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 2: are not ranked teams with the winning record Western Michigan

1067
00:55:58,160 --> 00:55:59,520
Speaker 2: played this year on their route to on their.

1068
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 1: Way to twelve No.

1069
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 2: Two, they played three teams with winning records, and one

1070
00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 2: of those teams is Toledo, who really ran all over them.

1071
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 2: And Toledo's good, but they don't run like Wisconsin. So

1072
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 2: I feel pretty comfortable saying Wisconsin is at least ten

1073
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,279
Speaker 2: to thirteen points better and could sort of explode in

1074
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 2: this game, because I don't think as much as I

1075
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 2: like Western's offense, I think this is sort of a

1076
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 2: cherry and this isn't the Sunday itself. That makes very

1077
00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 2: little sense. But I'm going with Wisconsin here. I'm gonna

1078
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,560
Speaker 2: say thirty one to seventeen Badgers.

1079
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: Yeah. Western Michigan's not played a defense is good all year,

1080
00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 1: so just by virtue of that, it's going to be

1081
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,359
Speaker 1: tougher to score points. I'm excited to see Zach Arrell

1082
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:51,080
Speaker 1: and Corey Davis against this Wisconsin defense too. Yeah, and

1083
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 1: I believe they'll be motivated. It might be the cherry

1084
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,399
Speaker 1: on their season, but they'll be motivated here. This game

1085
00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:59,880
Speaker 1: probably means a lot more to them than does Wisconsin.

1086
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,240
Speaker 1: For me, that's the primary reason I'm not more confident

1087
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:06,920
Speaker 1: in Wisconsin winning this football game. I just feel like

1088
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 1: Western Michigan's got more to play for. It's a time

1089
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,919
Speaker 1: honored tradition of the more motivated bowl team doing better

1090
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:17,360
Speaker 1: in the actual bowl game. So I'm a little worried

1091
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 1: here that Western's got more to play for. They're more motivated.

1092
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 1: They come in and they jump on Wisconsin early. If

1093
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 1: they jump on them early, I think this one could

1094
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,880
Speaker 1: get pretty damn interesting. I don't think they can hold

1095
00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 1: down Corey Clement. I don't think they can hold down

1096
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: any Wisconsin running back for that matter. I'm just a

1097
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: little worried that they come out and they jump on

1098
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 1: Wisconsin early. I am going to stick to my guns

1099
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: and go Badgers here twenty two confidence points. I think

1100
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 1: they are demonstrably better than Western Michigan. I am worried

1101
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,320
Speaker 1: though about that motivation factor. And I'm telling you, if

1102
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 1: if I look at the scoreboard at like one forty

1103
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: two on Monday afternoon and Western Michigan's up twenty one

1104
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: to nothing in this game. I could see that situation happening.

1105
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,439
Speaker 1: I don't know how likely it is, but it's it's

1106
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:08,480
Speaker 1: definitely on my radar. So give me Wisconsin here. I

1107
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,040
Speaker 1: think they win. I don't know about a score, but so.

1108
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 2: What in this game will you react to with? Like,

1109
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,440
Speaker 2: of course that happened. How could I overlook that?

1110
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 1: It would be the motivation factor. It's exactly as I'm

1111
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 1: describing now. Western Michigan comes in ball a fire, they

1112
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: get a few big completions on Wisconsin, and they go

1113
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 1: up early. Okay, that will be the thing that will

1114
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:29,920
Speaker 1: haunt me.

1115
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 2: You'll be very excited by the gift suites and the

1116
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:36,080
Speaker 2: sort of gifts available by the Cotton Bowl people. Okay,

1117
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 2: and I quote, would not disclose, would not disclose.

1118
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:47,600
Speaker 1: Okay. Then let's move on to the Rose Bowl game

1119
00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 1: thoughts Ty Monday, five pm ESPN usc AT nine to three,

1120
00:58:56,560 --> 00:58:58,960
Speaker 1: a five and a half point favorite over Big Ten

1121
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,920
Speaker 1: champs Penn State eleven and two. It should go without

1122
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: saying I'm most excited to watch this game, and that's

1123
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 1: not just because I'm biased. It's a great matchup two

1124
00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,479
Speaker 1: teams peaking at the right time. Yeah. Both teams are

1125
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,800
Speaker 1: poised for huge twenty seventeen seasons, so I think both

1126
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 1: are going to be motivated. UFC's defense, to me, has

1127
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 1: improved so drastically after starting out one to three that

1128
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 1: a bears mentioning here. Their past defense is susceptible though

1129
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 1: to big plays, and Penn State kind of likes the

1130
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 1: big plays, yeah, which is a little concerning to me.

1131
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:35,680
Speaker 1: That was Penn State's calling card, their own rebirth, their

1132
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 1: renaissance after losing to Michigan earlier in the year. They

1133
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:44,440
Speaker 1: found that component, they added it to their offense and

1134
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: that's been a big part of the reason why they

1135
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 1: ripped off a bunch of wins in a row here

1136
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:52,880
Speaker 1: and won the Big Ten Championship. I will also add

1137
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 1: that you can run on Penn State though, and we

1138
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: saw it in the Big Ten Championship game Wisconsintin so

1139
00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 1: can Rojo and Ronald Jones can Justin Davis. Can they

1140
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:06,000
Speaker 1: run on Penn State's defense. I think they can here.

1141
01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: I think they can, and I'm worried as a Penn

1142
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: State alum and as someone who has watched his team

1143
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 1: very intently throughout the latter half of the season. I

1144
01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 1: am worried that Penn State's got a little bit of

1145
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 1: a one trick pony feel to him. Sure, you know,

1146
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,400
Speaker 1: it's like when you pick a team in the NCAA

1147
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:28,080
Speaker 1: tournament that shoots all threes, when you pick them to

1148
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,280
Speaker 1: go deep, you kind of know in the back of

1149
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: your mind that, like, if they don't hit their threes,

1150
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:33,360
Speaker 1: this is going to end pretty early.

1151
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,439
Speaker 2: Who I like that comparison, Live and Die.

1152
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how Penn State is with the long ball,

1153
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 1: and they're exciting to watch. I feel like USC has

1154
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:46,880
Speaker 1: more ways they can beat you, So that's correct for me.

1155
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 1: I go USC, I go nine confidence points. I say

1156
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 1: thirty one to twenty seven. I think a great football game.

1157
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 1: I would never bet real money on this game. If

1158
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 1: I were, I would go Pennce eight plus the points,

1159
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 1: because I think it's probably a good back and forth game.

1160
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 1: But right now, USC, to me, feels a little bit

1161
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 1: more well balanced, and I'm not sure what happens in

1162
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 1: yet another game of the trace McSorley f it we're

1163
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,360
Speaker 1: throwing deep show. That just worries me a little bit.

1164
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 2: So you are totally right that both of these teams

1165
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,840
Speaker 2: are very good and that includes usc A generating bigger plays,

1166
01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:25,680
Speaker 2: and usc has found some creative ways to get the

1167
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 2: ball to a Dori Jackson on some swing passes and

1168
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 2: trickeration plays.

1169
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 1: Whatever.

1170
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 2: I'm worried about Penn State because their offense is not

1171
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:38,360
Speaker 2: particularly efficient. It's explosive. We've seen some big runs from

1172
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,680
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, obviously the deep bombs that you've mentioned to,

1173
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 2: especially to Chris Godwin. But I am a little bit

1174
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 2: worried trace mcsrely if he does not succeed early on

1175
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 2: in the game, or if he does not succeed early

1176
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 2: on first and second down. He's secretly a pretty atrocious

1177
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 2: third down quarterback. Like he is great when it's second

1178
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 2: and six and he has the flexibility to go deep

1179
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 2: and hit somebody in stride, but on third down, in

1180
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:09,720
Speaker 2: terms of efficiency, Trace mcsorly, it just isn't that guy.

1181
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:10,200
Speaker 1: Not yet.

1182
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,760
Speaker 2: I think he can be because offensively and he throws

1183
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 2: a really nice ball. Sam Donald is good on third down,

1184
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 2: and that's the worry to me that Penn State's defense

1185
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 2: won't be able to get off the field. Sam Donald

1186
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 2: just keeps moving the chains. He's just efficient at generating

1187
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:27,960
Speaker 2: first downs. Interestingly enough, USC's pass defense is way better

1188
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 2: in the first half. Penn State's pass defense is way

1189
01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 2: better in the second half. So as you know, that

1190
01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:36,440
Speaker 2: could play into Penn State's strength. They are a second

1191
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 2: half team, and teams have been able to move the

1192
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 2: ball and take advantage of mistakes USC against at least

1193
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 2: some of the better teams US he has played. You know,

1194
01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 2: they kept turning the ball over against Utah and Colorado,

1195
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,040
Speaker 2: letting those teams back in those games in the case

1196
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 2: of Utah winning that game early on in the Sam

1197
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 2: Dearnold tenure. But I think right now, giving Clancy Pendergast

1198
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:00,440
Speaker 2: enough time to prepare against Trace MCS early in that

1199
01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 2: big playoffense, I am going to go with USC virtual

1200
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:06,680
Speaker 2: home game, even though Penn State, I'm sure, I'm positive,

1201
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 2: will travel extraordinarily well, I'm gonna go with USC here, comfortable, excited,

1202
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,880
Speaker 2: with momentum. I'm gonna say, I think you're sort of right.

1203
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 2: I have thirty one to twenty three, so I think

1204
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:20,240
Speaker 2: they barely cover. But it's back and forth for much

1205
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 2: of the game.

1206
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,760
Speaker 1: What's the Bowl gift situation here? For the Rose Bowl.

1207
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:28,919
Speaker 2: At the Rose Bowl, players will be receiving a gift

1208
01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:32,400
Speaker 2: suite appearance, a fossil watch, a backpack made by whom ty.

1209
01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 1: Please say Augio it is absolutely Agio.

1210
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:41,600
Speaker 2: A new Era nine to fifty snapback adjustable hat not bad, okay, fine.

1211
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:46,640
Speaker 1: Snap back adjustable hat h okay. And then finally, the

1212
01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: All Stage Sugar Bowl. This one's in New Orleans at

1213
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:54,400
Speaker 1: the Superdome Monday evening at eight thirty pm. A good

1214
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:59,480
Speaker 1: way to, I guess, get your ready for the short

1215
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:02,720
Speaker 1: work week that follows for many folks. It's on ESPN.

1216
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 1: It's between Oklahoma at ten and two and Auburn at

1217
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 1: eight and four. I believe Oklahoma is now a three, no,

1218
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,959
Speaker 1: five and a half point favorite. Excuse me, this line

1219
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,720
Speaker 1: came up a little bit. This is a compelling statistical

1220
01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 1: matchup because Oklahoma might have the best offense in the country,

1221
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:26,640
Speaker 1: and clearly Auburn has a top ten defense. What worries

1222
01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 1: me is if.

1223
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:36,880
Speaker 2: Oklahoma is that Bob Stoops calling uh oh, all right,

1224
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,240
Speaker 2: somebody has picked up the phone tie Okay.

1225
01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:43,240
Speaker 1: What worries me is if Oklahoma goes up fourteen to

1226
01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 1: nil or takes any kind of early lead on Auburn,

1227
01:04:47,280 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 1: how are they going to respond? Because offense has not

1228
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 1: been Auburn's great success in twenty sixteen. They've been better

1229
01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:58,160
Speaker 1: than I think a lot of people realize. They still

1230
01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:01,160
Speaker 1: haven't been great. It's concerning to me if they get

1231
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 1: in an early hole, can they come back here. I

1232
01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:06,360
Speaker 1: am not an Auburn fan at all, and I don't

1233
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,680
Speaker 1: mean that on a personal level. I'm just talking about

1234
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 1: the twenty sixteen version of this team, to me, was

1235
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,840
Speaker 1: extremely underwhelming on a number of different fronts. Not defensively

1236
01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:20,160
Speaker 1: but offensively. They've definitely fallen short of expectations. For me,

1237
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm going Oklahoma. I'm going Oklahoma to the tune of

1238
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:24,960
Speaker 1: twenty eight points here. I think they are playing at

1239
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,840
Speaker 1: a really high level right now. Yeah, I agree with you.

1240
01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,440
Speaker 2: I have too many questions about Auburn's offense, and if

1241
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 2: you're going to beat Oklahoma, it is going to be

1242
01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 2: with a somewhat explosive and I know they were able

1243
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:38,560
Speaker 2: to run the ball. October was a nice enough month

1244
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:42,320
Speaker 2: for Auburn offensively, but I don't believe in this Auburn

1245
01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:44,720
Speaker 2: offense enough at this point. I think they're ready to

1246
01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 2: move on to next season and begin the Jared Stidama.

1247
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:51,160
Speaker 2: So I'm going to go with Oklahoma here. I don't

1248
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,040
Speaker 2: think Auburn has built well enough. Even though you can't

1249
01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:56,920
Speaker 2: take advantage of Oklahoma's defense, I think Baker Mayfield will

1250
01:05:56,920 --> 01:05:59,840
Speaker 2: have a nice game, and even though they won't put

1251
01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:02,160
Speaker 2: up video game numbers against Auburn, I still like them.

1252
01:06:02,160 --> 01:06:04,000
Speaker 2: I don't think I like them as confident as you

1253
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:06,720
Speaker 2: are in Oklahoma at this point, just because Auburn is

1254
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 2: a team that plays really good defense. I can run

1255
01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 2: the ball at their very best, but we've seen too

1256
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:13,960
Speaker 2: many complete shutdowns from this offense, and I know injuries

1257
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,440
Speaker 2: have been a factor. I'm going with Oklahoma here. I

1258
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:20,080
Speaker 2: think they win this game something like twenty seven to thirteen.

1259
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:21,320
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty comfortable.

1260
01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:25,560
Speaker 1: And the gift situation in our final Bowl preview.

1261
01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:29,400
Speaker 2: We have a gift suite appearance, a fossil watch with

1262
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 2: a custom tin tie and a New Era cap. Okay,

1263
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:36,040
Speaker 2: but you know what, you also get to go to

1264
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:37,480
Speaker 2: New Orleans. That's pretty nice gift.

1265
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:43,040
Speaker 1: You also get to New Orleans. Okay. That does it? Yeah?

1266
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:46,280
Speaker 1: That does what a show? We have covered now forty

1267
01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:51,400
Speaker 1: two Bowl games over five shows. Our next show is

1268
01:06:51,440 --> 01:06:55,400
Speaker 1: going to be on Tuesday, January third. We didn't want

1269
01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 1: to do a show early and then not be able

1270
01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 1: to cover and talk about all these big games taking

1271
01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,640
Speaker 1: place on January second. A lot of folks obviously are

1272
01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:06,560
Speaker 1: going back to work on the third, so we will

1273
01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:10,280
Speaker 1: do our best to put forth an episode as early

1274
01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:12,240
Speaker 1: on in the evening on the third as we can.

1275
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:16,360
Speaker 1: You'll have it for the middle part of your first

1276
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:20,480
Speaker 1: work week back in twenty seventeen. Beyond that, Dan and

1277
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 1: I are headed to Tampa on Friday. We'll be there

1278
01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 1: all weekend, coming back on what's Sunday evening, Sunday night. Yeah.

1279
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:31,080
Speaker 1: Our plan will be to talk to a bunch of

1280
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:34,960
Speaker 1: media folks to get their take on this huge National

1281
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:38,400
Speaker 1: Championship game between the two winners of the playoff games

1282
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:41,560
Speaker 1: that we discussed earlier, and also to get some bonus

1283
01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 1: content that we will play at some point throughout January, February, March,

1284
01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 1: the springtime as a whole, and then that feeds into

1285
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 1: our National Championship review show. We're going to do that

1286
01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:56,920
Speaker 1: on Tuesday at some point we yet to figure out

1287
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,560
Speaker 1: exactly when, but the game is on Monday the ninth.

1288
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 1: We will record and publish on January tenth, so we'll

1289
01:08:04,280 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 1: review the big Tamali between if you take our picks

1290
01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:12,640
Speaker 1: at phase value, would be between Alabama and Clemson, a rematch.

1291
01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then we're going to talk about it and

1292
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:15,920
Speaker 2: neat fried Chicken together.

1293
01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 1: That leads into our live show in New York City

1294
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:21,519
Speaker 1: January fourteenth. As I mentioned before, we sold out very

1295
01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:25,080
Speaker 1: quickly a limited run of tickets. If this goes well,

1296
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 1: and we have no reason to think it won't, we

1297
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:28,880
Speaker 1: will do one at some point in August. As Dan

1298
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:33,040
Speaker 1: announced on Twitter yesterday, that would be yeah away plan. Yeah. Yeah.

1299
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:34,800
Speaker 2: We got a bunch of messages from people who were

1300
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:36,840
Speaker 2: too late because we sold out pretty quickly, which is

1301
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 2: a testament to everybody's passion for weird college football talk.

1302
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,640
Speaker 2: We will find a way to do a bigger performance

1303
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 2: of some kind in August. So Radio City, I don't know.

1304
01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:52,400
Speaker 2: I don't think it can hold the number of numbers

1305
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 2: we're thinking here, but you know, sometimes it's good to

1306
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,400
Speaker 2: do an intimate radio city show. A lot of people

1307
01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:00,320
Speaker 2: have long considered us to be the rock Cats of

1308
01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:03,000
Speaker 2: college football podcast. Sure, oh you how do you throw

1309
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,599
Speaker 2: that away? So yes, very excited for everything coming up.

1310
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:09,080
Speaker 2: There is going to be a ton of content. So Facebook, Twitter,

1311
01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:13,200
Speaker 2: every Snapchat, everything, follow us wherever you care to, and

1312
01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:14,280
Speaker 2: we'll have a good time together.

1313
01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:16,920
Speaker 1: And for those people who have asked, there will be

1314
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 1: a recording of the live show. We will put a

1315
01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:21,040
Speaker 1: recording out there so that people can listen and get

1316
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:23,439
Speaker 1: a flavor for what this is and decide if next

1317
01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:25,479
Speaker 1: time around it's something they'd like to attend. We think

1318
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 1: you will, but we're biased, so do stay tuned to

1319
01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:30,240
Speaker 1: the podcast feed. We'll do our best to publish that

1320
01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 1: so so you can hear how the evening goes down.

1321
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:38,760
