So don't worrybody, 33 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 3: Martin Weiss is good and dandy. He is celebrating a 34 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 3: wedding somewhere.

Obviously, 44 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 4: we had a lot of NFL news, got a lot 45 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 4: of things we're going to talk about today. But as 46 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 4: far as where the bracket was going into this weekend, 47 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 4: and this is based on again on the playoff poll 48 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 4: that comes out. So the four buys were Ohio State, 49 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 4: who's playing right now against my UCLA Bruins. They should 50 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 4: not have a problem today ya, Malayava is out of 51 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 4: this game. But it's only seven to nothing right now, 52 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 4: four minutes to go in the first quarter. By the way, 53 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 4: Julian saying, the red shirt freshman who, by the way, 54 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 4: originally committed to Alabama. I knew about this case from 55 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 4: Carlsbad and he was a super hyped high school kid 56 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 4: and he had a verbal essentially to go to Alabama, 57 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 4: and then Nick Saban left, so he got out of Alabama. 58 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 4: Was a backup a year ago at Ohio State played 59 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 4: very little, actually red shirt of the year, and this 60 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 4: year is completing eighty point nine percent of his passes 61 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 4: eighty point nine percent. So yeah, I mean, Ohio State's 62 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 4: a clear. 63 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 3: Number one, clear number one. Their offense has looked unstoppable 64 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: the last two weeks. 65 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 4: Indiana obviously winning today, they're home free really months because 66 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 4: they only have the one game left. 67 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 5: They have a buy and then they have produced, so 68 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 5: they're going to be undefeated going into the Big Ten 69 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 5: championship game. Texas A and m Wow comeback today. 70 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 3: You know, I hate that it's a comeback because they 71 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 3: were favored to win, right, you were supposed to win 72 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: this game. 73 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 2: But a comeback that we had never seen, well. 74 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 4: They had, they had never had a comeback in the 75 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 4: history that you know, great program at A and M 76 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 4: like this, down thirty to three at halftime and they 77 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 4: outscore them the second half twenty eight to nothing. 78 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: Twenty eight to nothing. It was it was quite the 79 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 2: turn of events. Good for them. 80 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 3: It really seems like they just went out partying too 81 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: hard last night, came out a little bit slow, and 82 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 3: then at the healf, they're like, okay, now are we ready? 83 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: Like, we're good, We're hydrated. 84 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 6: Ready to go. 85 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 4: Look, you're playing a South Carolina team that has talent, 86 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 4: especially at quarterback, and but they're three and six coming 87 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 4: in the game. 88 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 5: So you're like, all right, we're at home. It's a 89 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 5: walk over. And if you don't show up, this is 90 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 5: what happened. Like with Buffalo last week, had the bill. 91 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 4: You know, you have a huge win at home against 92 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 4: thee they're all psyched up about playing the Chiefs here 93 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 4: on the road against the miserable Dolphins. All you're reading 94 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 4: about is, you know, the team is completely discombobulated, firing 95 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 4: their general manager, and then you show up. 96 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 5: I mean he literally did not show up. 97 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 4: They did game and they got steamrolled by the lowly Dolphins. 98 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 5: So those are the top. 99 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 4: Three teams and that will not change because they're all undefeated. 100 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 4: But number four was Alabama and Alabama goes down at 101 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 4: home to Oklahoma. Now that is a game changer, Manceie, 102 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 4: it really is. Alabama did not look good in the 103 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:34,799 Speaker 4: fourth quarter. 104 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 3: Now all they couldn't move the ball down after that 105 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 3: fumble by by almost in the right there was in 106 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 3: the red zone they took the lead. 107 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 2: That's when Alabama lost the lead. 108 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 3: They were up by one point going into the fourth 109 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: quarter and there was that fumble and then that's when 110 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 3: they took over, Oklahoma getting that field goal. 111 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 2: And then Alabama couldn't move the ball at all after that. 112 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 4: Well, in the first half, ty Simpson had twenty two completions, 113 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 4: second half six. Yeah, you could tell Oklahoma as By 114 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 4: the way, that's a couple of good wins because that 115 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 4: Michigan win they had earlier in the year is looking 116 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 4: better every week because Michigan continues to win even if 117 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 4: they had to go down the last second. They had 118 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 4: five turnovers today in that game against Northwestern. So you know, 119 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 4: Oklahoma was sort of the last team out. If you 120 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 4: look there ranked eleventh, and so yeah, the top ten 121 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 4: teams so after Alabama was Georgia, Texas, tech Ole, Miss Oregon, 122 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 4: Notre Dame Texas. Those are in and then the other 123 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 4: two teams were Miami representing the ACC. And then of 124 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 4: course that group of five right now is South Florida. 125 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 4: And so you know, with Oklahoma winning, Alabama is not 126 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 4: out of it by any stretch of the imagination because 127 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 4: they still control their own path to get to the 128 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 4: SEC Championship game. And even if they were to lose 129 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 4: that SEC Championship game, it's Alabama. They could be the 130 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 4: one team that could still sneak into the playoff with 131 00:05:58,279 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 4: three losses. 132 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 3: That tumble came right up the end of the third 133 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 3: quarter coin into the fourth quarter, and I thought it 134 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 3: was early in the fourth quarter when it came. But 135 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 3: then the Sooners hit that field goal, and then Alabama 136 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 3: doesn't do anything. I agree with you, They're still a 137 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 3: live in fact, the Sooners needed this win more than 138 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 3: Alabama at this point. But having you here, mister Heisman Motor. 139 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 5: I don't know. 140 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: If I don't know, if you guys know that. 141 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: Steve Hartman has a breaking news, breaking news, I don't 142 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 3: know if you know Steve di Seger, he has a 143 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: Heisman vote. 144 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 5: It's absolutely crazy, is like, how many times have I 145 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 5: heard this? 146 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 4: By the way, I do want to clarify something about 147 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 4: the Heisman Trust. You know, it used to be once 148 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 4: you sort of had the vote, the only way there 149 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 4: were two ways to lose the vote because they have 150 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 4: a certain allotment of votes per state, and then so 151 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 4: the only way to lose your vote was either to 152 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 4: leave the state or die. 153 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 6: Got it. 154 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 4: Now it's changed the last couple of years where I'm 155 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 4: actually getting a questionnaire from the Heisman Trust. How much 156 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 4: college football are you covering? What are you doing right now? 157 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 4: Give us an update? Blah blah blah blah blah. And 158 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 4: I think that's fair. 159 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 2: That is very fair. 160 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 5: You know, why are you still. 161 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 4: Covering college football? Are you watching games? You know that 162 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 4: kind of stuff. So they're tightening up a little bit 163 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 4: on terms of who votes because they're not expanding the 164 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 4: number of voters. So you know, but yes, I've been 165 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 4: voting since Cam Newton won in twenty ten. 166 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 5: But right now, I mean, it really looks like this. 167 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 2: Now, let me ask you actually, how I want to 168 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 2: present it. 169 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: How I want to know what you think, because everybody 170 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: is waiting for somebody to rise up in the ranks 171 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 3: of Heisman, right, but you're also waiting for a moment. 172 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 3: Fernando Mendoza gave it to you last week in that 173 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 3: comeback in the final minute, right, Julian Sane. You just 174 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: said he's playing great, but he's also on a stacked team. 175 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: So today Ty Simpson did his. 176 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: Stock drop gone because of that fourth quarter gone gone gone. 177 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 4: And in fact, at the end of that game, he 178 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 4: had a potential Heisman moment you're down to, right, you 179 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 4: got you know, drive to get a game winning field goal, and. 180 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: He failed to deliver, and he failed to deliver. 181 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 4: So right now, this looks like it's going to come down. 182 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 4: I mean, think about this potential matchup assuming Ohio State 183 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 4: wins out, assuming Indiana wins out twelve and oh versus 184 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 4: twelve and zero in the Big Ten Championship game, with 185 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 4: literally everything on the line, the number one overall seed 186 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 4: in the playoff and the Heisman Trophy. I mean, it 187 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 4: really comes down to Mendoza insane right now as the 188 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 4: two leading candidates. Obviously A and M's quarterback has done great. 189 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 4: You know, he let it come back today. But look 190 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 4: at the numbers Mendoza today against Wisconsin. You're playing a 191 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 4: team he should beat, and they did beat. And he 192 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 4: had the kind of game when you throw more touchdowns. 193 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, two he missed two passes roight, he was. 194 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 4: Twenty two to twenty four, two and ninety nine yards, 195 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 4: four touchdowns, no picks. That's the kind of game if 196 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 4: you're going to be in the Heisman conversation. Look, he 197 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 4: saved his Heisman last week with that, you know, and 198 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 4: how which was at him? And how much is one 199 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 4: of the greatest. 200 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: Catch up on the greatest catches. Absolutely, you know. 201 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 4: But the fact is it looks like it's going to 202 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 4: come down to that game, the Big Ten Championship game, 203 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 4: unless there's some monumental upset. And by the way, you know, 204 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 4: Michigan always seems to find a way the last couple 205 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 4: of years against the highest state. 206 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 5: But if they pull it off this year, I probably 207 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 5: be well, okay in shock. 208 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 4: But anyway, if that does play out where we have 209 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 4: undefeated Ohio State undefeated Indian the Big Ten Championship game, 210 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 4: Mendoza's saying to me, are playing for the Heisman trophy. 211 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love from Notre Dame doesn't have a chance. 212 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 4: I wish I could get a running back in the mix. 213 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 4: Look last year, remember we had the all purpose man, 214 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 4: Travis Hunter as your winner, and then he had Ashton Genty, 215 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 4: a running back. I had one of the greatest seasons 216 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 4: of any running back ever, who, by the way, did 217 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 4: get my first place vote over Hunter. So we didn't 218 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 4: have a quarterback even in the top two. But and 219 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 4: I'm always looking for those non quarterbacks. Give me that 220 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 4: running back, give me, give me something. You know, I 221 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 4: voted for Manti tayl way back in the day over 222 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 4: Johnny Manziel because he had led Notre Dame to an 223 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 4: undefeated season. 224 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 5: He had an insane year that year. He had never. 225 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 4: Intercepted a pass until his senior year Notre Dame. That 226 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 4: year he had seven. Ye know, it was one of 227 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: those miracle year. 228 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 5: It's one of the. 229 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 4: Great That's how you get my vote, you know, if 230 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 4: you're a non quarterback. So but this year, really, honestly, 231 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 4: unless somehow Ohio State or Indiana stumbles, this is going 232 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 4: to be saying in Mendoza battling for the Heisman Trophy 233 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 4: in that Big Ten Championship. 234 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 3: Game, let's ypothetically, say we get to that game and 235 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 3: Indiana does not win, but Fernanda Mendoza has a great game. 236 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 4: It's not impossible, and I'll really go back. Johnson is stacked. 237 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 2: He's stacked. 238 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 4: I will give you an example. And this is really 239 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 4: old school because only I can do these. And it 240 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 4: was a very similar game. In nineteen sixty seven. O. J. 241 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 4: Simpson was in his first year at US. He was 242 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 4: a junior, was a JC transfer, and he was already 243 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 4: lighting college football world on fire. 244 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 5: With his yards. And UCLA had a. 245 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 4: Much celebrated senior quarterback named Gary Beban, and that was 246 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 4: The votes were different. 247 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 5: In those days. It was a mail in ballot. 248 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 4: And it really some games still had to be played, 249 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 4: but that's when they But everyone was waiting for this 250 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 4: one game because UCLA came in ranked number one in 251 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 4: the country. S He had just lost, but they were 252 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 4: still favored in the game. Long story short, s he 253 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 4: wins this game twenty one to twenty and OJ ran 254 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 4: sixty four yards for the winning touchdown. What about ten 255 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 4: minutes left wasn't late in the game. But Beeban, who 256 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 4: had a bad back and everything else, was sixteen to 257 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 4: twenty four. Three hundred one yards, which was a ton 258 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 4: in those days, a couple of touchdowns. So even though 259 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 4: he lost the game, he ended up winning a close 260 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 4: vote for the Heisman Trophy. So is it possible that 261 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 4: Mendoza could still win the Heisman even if Indiana loses. 262 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 4: He would have had to have a phenomenal game. He 263 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 4: can't be throwing three interceptions, nothing like that. It would 264 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 4: be have to have one of those kind of games. 265 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 4: And same would have had to have you know, not 266 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 4: as good again. In other words, at the end of 267 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 4: the game, they're like. 268 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 5: Wow, they want in spite of him, Well, it's just 269 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 5: that Mendoza outplayed saying in the game. 270 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 4: Then it's possible, especially since again Indiana obviously has never 271 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 4: had a Heisman Trophy winner. They had a runner up 272 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 4: in nineteen eighty nine, the great Anthony Thompson running back. 273 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 7: I'm not going to go all day. 274 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 4: On this, but the bottom line is, yes, he would 275 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 4: still have a chance to win the Heisman even if 276 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 4: they were to lose that championship game to a high state. 277 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 3: I I right now feel like it's Fernando Mendoza's Heisman 278 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 3: to lose at this point because of what he has 279 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 3: done with Indiana. 280 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 5: I agree with you. I mean again, think about this. 281 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 4: I mean they had what was the kid War Clash 282 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 4: year at India, they had another transfer quarterback. So Mendoza 283 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 4: comes in from cal you know, or he's a good quarterback. 284 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 4: But I mean, no one was looking at him. Well, look, 285 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 4: we say the same thing about Jade and daniels Man. 286 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 4: He was at Arizona State. No one looked at him 287 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 4: at Arizona State. Well that's a guy that's going to 288 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 4: win the Heisman Trophy. So but it's I mean's just 289 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 4: had a phenomenally year. 290 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 3: He's had a phenomenal year, and so has Indiana, and 291 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 3: so has this team in the NFL that we're gonna 292 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 3: get to on the other side, who has won eight 293 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: in a row. But I I'm not sure how I 294 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 3: feel about this. 295 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if I don't think you can convince me. 296 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 3: And I feel like that's what I'm seeing this team 297 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 3: and everyone is jumping on the hype train and I'm 298 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 3: not there yet, But we're gonna dive into that. 299 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 2: He is Steve Harmon.

We're those people. Wow, we're those people I was. 385 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 4: I was very fortunate when my kids were young, you know, 386 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 4: working at our station. It was that time in the 387 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 4: two thousands, okay, when my kids were younger, that we 388 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 4: had literally free passes everything. We had free passes to Disneyland, 389 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 4: both both sides of them, you know, Park Hopper, the 390 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 4: whole thing, Magic Mountain, Universal Studios. I was literally an 391 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 4: annual pass there for years and years and years, so 392 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 4: I never had to pay a single dome. 393 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: That must be nice, definitely. 394 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 5: Phenomenal back in the day. Yeah, I bet you are. 395 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 2: He is Steve Barvion. I want to bologna as you 396 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 2: are listening to Fox Sports Saturday. 397 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 3: All right, Steve, I cannot, for the life of me 398 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 3: figure out how I feel about the steam in the 399 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 3: NFL that has won eight in a row for the 400 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 3: first time since Tom Brady. Yeah, the New England Patriots. 401 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 3: They are three and ozer in their division and they. 402 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 2: Just beat the Jets. 403 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 3: But watching that game, and this adds to my feelings 404 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 3: of uncertainty when I look at the Patriots, because Martin 405 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 3: and I talked about this last week. Watching this game 406 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 3: against the Jets, I was like, shouldn't you be dominating 407 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 3: the Jets. The Jets are not good on any side 408 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 3: of the ball. They just put Garrett Garrett Wilson on 409 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 3: ir They they they're not good. And the entire game 410 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 3: was a one score game until it wasn't later in 411 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. 412 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 4: Well, and he also had this situation. Here's the problem 413 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 4: right now. Look, Mike Vrabel obviously coach runaway Coach of 414 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 4: the Year. I mean, yeah, by the way, and by 415 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 4: the way, to me, Bob Kraft cemented his rightful place 416 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 4: in the Hall of Fame as an owner because they 417 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 4: brought him Mayo as the coach, you know, to replace Belichick, 418 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 4: you know, and he's a legacy and everything else. It 419 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 4: was he was not the right guy at the right time. 420 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 4: Doesn't mean that down the road he could get another 421 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 4: opportunity and be the right guy in the right place. 422 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 4: They needed a veteran coach and Rabel was the obvious 423 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 4: choice from the get go, but they went in a 424 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 4: different direction. But what made the Patriots and what has 425 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,479 Speaker 4: made the Patriots a winner throughout Bob Kraft's ownership is 426 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 4: when they make mistakes, they don't they cut their losses immediately. 427 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 5: They did this with Belichick. 428 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 4: Whether you were a high draft pick or an expensive 429 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 4: free agent, if you were the wrong fit, they would 430 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 4: just get rid of you. They wouldn't hang on to like, wow, 431 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 4: you know, give him some time. They don't do that 432 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 4: in New England, and they didn't do it with the 433 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 4: coach situation. They brought him Vrabel and he immediately brings 434 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 4: in a winning attitude. Now that being said, we saw 435 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 4: why Drake May He's obviously made huge strides in his 436 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 4: second year. You can argue, now, I guess Kayleb Williams 437 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 4: maybe in the mix, but with Jayden Daniels getting hurt, 438 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 4: Bo Nick's taking a mighty leap backwards. Michael Pennix obviously 439 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 4: in a mess right now in Atlanta that Drake May 440 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 4: may be the best quarterback in this draft. That being said, 441 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 4: you mentioned this game against it Jets. They were up 442 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 4: five driving the ball at that point, you just want 443 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 4: to get a field goal to go up eight, and 444 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 4: he forces a ball in the end zone that's picked off. 445 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 5: Yep. Now they got out. 446 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 4: Of that mess, but it was just like, those are 447 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 4: the kind of things that once you get into the postseason, 448 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 4: you can't do. I mean, they shot Vrabel after he 449 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 4: threw the interception. He just had that look like you 450 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 4: gotta be kidding me, what you can't do? 451 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 2: You can't do that. 452 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 3: And with this whole MVP conversation that Drake May has 453 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 3: put himself in because there's been no clear cut MVP, 454 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 3: just like the Heisman in college football, he's putting himself 455 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 3: in this conversation. In this game against the Jets in 456 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, justin Field fumbles in the red zone 457 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 3: and New England gets the ball back and they can't 458 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 3: get a touchdown. 459 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 4: Right because he threw that interception, right, It's crazy. He 460 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 4: was like, what are you doing? He threw it into 461 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 4: full blown double. 462 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 3: Coverage and all they're able to do is get a 463 00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: field goal. I think after the fumble, right. 464 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 2: It's just if that's what you're doing. 465 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 3: I don't know how to properly assess the team moving forward. 466 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 2: And if you look at who the Patriots. 467 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 3: Have beat, they of course they beat the Bills of 468 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 3: Gors like that's one in their division. That is a 469 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 3: huge one. They've beat other teams like the Saints, the Titans, 470 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 3: the Browns, the Falcons, and the Dolphins. Like the other 471 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 3: good win would be the Buccaneers obviously. 472 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 4: MONSI, I'll give you two examples, and I'm gonna go 473 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 4: old school, and really old school, all right. 474 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 5: So in nineteen eighty one, the San Francisco. 475 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 4: Forty nine Ers came out of nowhere with their third 476 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 4: year quarterback, third year coach Joe Montana, and Bill Walsh, 477 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 4: and they got in a roll. I mean, they were 478 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 4: a six win team the year before six and ten. 479 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 4: They go thirteen and three. But the Cowboys are looming, 480 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 4: and everyone knows the Cowboys are like a better team. 481 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 4: The forty nine ers are a flash in the pan. 482 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 4: They don't they have no playoff experience, they have nothing. 483 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 4: But they were playing the NFC Championship game at home, 484 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 4: and of course that game ended with the famous catch, 485 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 4: you know, the Dwight Clark catch, and they end up 486 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 4: winning that game, winning the NFC Championship game, and then 487 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 4: they go on to win the Super Bowl. 488 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 5: Same thing with the Rams in ninety nine with Kurt Warner. 489 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 5: They had missed the playoffs nine straight years, nine straight 490 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 5: losing seasons, and all of a sudden he brings this 491 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 5: obscure quarterback and they're lighting. 492 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 4: Up the scoreboard. That's not going to happen in the postseason. 493 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 4: They will come back to Earth. 494 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 5: But you know what, they had home field advantage and 495 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 5: they got that to the Super Bowl and then of 496 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 5: course won that Super Bowl. So if you look in 497 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 5: New England right now, if they can hang on, they 498 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 5: can hang on to that number one overall seed in 499 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 5: the AFC, and the Pats of the Super Bowl goes 500 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 5: through New England, that's not going to be an. 501 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 4: Easy place to win. You'd give him a chance because 502 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 4: obviously with a young quarterback on the road. Now, you know, 503 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 4: look at last year with the Detroits, right, there's the 504 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 4: polar opposite. Now, we thought, all right, the Lions are 505 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: ready for prime time, you know, because they made the playoffs. 506 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 4: Now they're ready to go, and then they get blown 507 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 4: out at home by a rookie quarterback in the Washington Commanders. 508 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 4: So there's no rhyme or reason. But I will say this, 509 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 4: if New England can hang on and be the number 510 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 4: one overall seed, I wouldn't bet against you. 511 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 3: You wouldn't bet against them, And it has to do 512 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 3: I think mostly for me it would be I'm betting 513 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 3: on Mike Rabel. 514 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 4: Exactly right, like you're being there, done that, three time 515 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 4: Super Bowl champion. As a player, he knows the process of, 516 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 4: you know, navigating the postseason. He understands how it works. 517 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 4: Your players still have to deliver. I mean, they still 518 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,199 Speaker 4: have to play well. If a Kansas City or a 519 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 4: Buffalo or a veteran team goes into New England, it'd 520 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 4: probably be favored. That doesn't mean they're going to win. 521 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 4: And so that to me it's you know, when you 522 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 4: talk about I don't know about New England, I don't 523 00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 4: know about Buffalo and Kansas City. 524 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 5: I mean said the teams. 525 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 4: We know the Ravens were heard obviously when Lamar Jackson 526 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 4: got hurt, but you know, Mahomes have been healthy. Josh 527 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 4: Allen's been healthy, and those are the teams we have 528 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 4: been seeing over the last half decade in the AFC 529 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 4: head to head. Now, Kansas City's won all those matchups 530 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 4: in the postseason, but where are they right now? 531 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 3: I mean, if I'm big, I'm trusting Kansas City over 532 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 3: the three teams we're just talking about quickly, Buffalo, Kansas City, 533 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 3: and New England. 534 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 2: And it has to do with history, right because they've 535 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 2: been there, done that well. 536 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 4: It's hard to bet against a team to the AFC 537 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:31,959 Speaker 4: Championship game every year. 538 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 5: The Mahomes has been their quarterback. 539 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 4: But that being said, questions they're favored on the road 540 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 4: against Denver. I know how bad when people see you know, 541 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 4: they don't look like an eight and two team. 542 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,959 Speaker 5: There's no style points in the NFL, for especially lately, 543 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 5: there's no style points. You just have to win games. 544 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 4: And as bad as bo Nix has been at times 545 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 4: and discombobulated as that offense has been, their defense is 546 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 4: performing a very high level and when they've needed plays 547 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 4: late in the game, somehow they've been able to pull 548 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 4: it out. So it's wide open this year, Moncie. 549 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 2: It really is. And you know, for the best pre 550 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: Game show every weekend. 551 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 3: Be sure to tune into Fox Sports Radios Countdown to Kickoff, 552 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 3: presented by bet MGM every Saturday and Sunday morning. 553 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 2: We will count you down to all of the. 554 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 3: Biggest games for three hours right up until kickoff, for 555 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 3: all of the best plays and up to the second 556 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 3: injury news.

When we're at 563 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 3: the update desk, Steve de Sager, Steve's gonna give us 564 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 3: a round about what's going on some teams trying to 565 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: stay in the college football playoff picture, Steve, what is 566 00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 3: going on? 567 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 6: And can't say so? You were talking about trying to 568 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:02,719 Speaker 6: stay in the playoffs. 569 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: I can't believe that they. 570 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 6: Are still odds on favorite to win the Super. 571 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 5: Bowl, even though right now, if the playoffs began today, they'd. 572 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 6: Be out and they have to play at the Broncos 573 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 6: and then the Colts after that. They could be five 574 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 6: and six as of a couple weeks from now. And yeah, 575 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 6: they are tied with Jacksonville for the last playoff spot 576 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 6: right now, but they've already lost head to head. 577 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 5: To Jacksonville exactly. So I mean, everyone's getting all hyped 578 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 5: up when they beat the Detroit Lions at home and 579 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 5: then they blew out the Raiders and the Commanders at home, 580 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,719 Speaker 5: and I'm like, why they were huge favorites of Buffalo. 581 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 5: I don't get it. 582 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 6: Still got to play the Broncos twice this year and 583 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 6: rematch with the Chargers and see the Texans great defense 584 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 6: ex exactly. We had a great comeback at number three 585 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 6: Texas A and m Aggie's win thirty one thirty over 586 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 6: South Carolina. I know one of you will remember a 587 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 6: certain Texas A and M game with a huge comeback 588 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 6: in it. 589 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 5: I'll tell you how exactly it was. Forty forty ten 590 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 5: Texas A and M at the Rose Bowl was leading 591 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 5: UCLA season. 592 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 4: It was a season over in twenty seventeen. Josh Rose 593 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 4: in the quarterback UCLA. Think about this month, soe UCLA 594 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 4: was losing forty four to ten with four oh eight. 595 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 5: To go in the third quarter. Okay, and outscored him 596 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,439 Speaker 5: thirty five to nothing from that point on from the 597 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 5: four minutes left in the third quarter, and they win 598 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 5: the game forty five forty four. 599 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 2: Did anyone get fired? 600 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 4: I have watched that game on replay, the saga, See, 601 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 4: I still don't get it. 602 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 5: It's unreal. 603 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 2: Nobody got fired after that. That seems like someone should 604 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 2: have been fired up. 605 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 5: That was Kevin someone. Yeah. 606 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 6: Eventually, yeah, eventually. So A and M engineered its biggest 607 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 6: comeback win in school history today, beating South Carolina, a 608 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 6: team that has won in seven in conference this year, 609 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 6: by the way, previously the biggest comeback win and AM 610 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 6: A and M history was with a Johnny Manziel team 611 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 6: a Bowl win over Duke fifty two forty eight eight, 612 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 6: where they came from twenty one down. The great graphic 613 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 6: that they put up during this telecast is in the 614 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 6: last twenty plus years of SEC conference games as this 615 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 6: was today, when a team falls behind by twenty seven, 616 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 6: their record oh and two eighty six since two thousand 617 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 6: and four until today. 618 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 5: Now it's one in two eighty six. 619 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 6: Absolutely and them was down at home at the half 620 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 6: thirty to three and still beat South Carolina thirty one 621 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 6: to thirty. The Florida Gators are three and six this year, 622 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 6: and they are leading at number seven ranked Ole Miss 623 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 6: under two minutes to go till halftime. Florida up twenty 624 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 6: one to twenty. Thirteenth ranked Utah leads at Baylor twenty 625 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 6: eight to ten under two minutes to go in the 626 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 6: first half. Top ten matchup at Georgia Bulldogs ahead of 627 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 6: Texas fourteen to three early second quarter, and Ohio state 628 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 6: number one in the country, has scored again seventeen nothing 629 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 6: to lead over UCLA. We have four and a half 630 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 6: minutes to go in the second quarter, and I believe 631 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 6: the precincts are in on this one. Actually it's only 632 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 6: seventeen nothing and it's only the second quarter. But as 633 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 6: you referenced early in the show, the starting quarterback Nikoya 634 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 6: Maliave is out with a concussion. 635 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 4: Line in this game was thirty one and a half 636 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 4: before he built out, so now I think it was 637 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 4: like thirty five or more so. 638 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, UCLA is hanging in. 639 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 6: The guy who's starting for UCLA tonight, Luke Duncan, has 640 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 6: not thrown a pass or had not until tonight in 641 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 6: his college career. He has nine yards passing in the 642 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 6: first half, so. 643 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 5: So he's well on his way to double digits. That's 644 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 5: what you're saying. Barring a couple of Seass's four for 645 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 5: six for nine yards. I like it. 646 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 6: I think the game is over. On FS one, Washington 647 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 6: at home leads Perdue twenty one nothing, two minutes to 648 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 6: go in the first half Perdue oh and seven.

You are Canon. 676 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 4: Hartman at Cannonheartin's it's long and it's cumbersome. 677 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 5: I know that. 678 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 4: But actually my original when I first start was hater Hartman, 679 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 4: hater because that was sort of a thing over the years, 680 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 4: and uh, kat l A my TV station insisted that no, 681 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 4: we're not going to have hater Hartman as you need 682 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 4: to change it. And I was the loose cannon. So 683 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, all Canon Hartman. Then I realized that's really long. 684 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 4: But I've never changed. 685 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: But it's easy to remember Canon Hartman. 686 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 5: Well, I get that you still call it Twitter instead 687 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 5: of backs. 688 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 3: Because if I put Twitter dot com it takes me, 689 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 3: so maybe you should. 690 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: They should change that first. 691 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 3: If you do twitter dot com, it takes talking about. 692 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 7: I'll take some blame for that. It says twitter on 693 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 7: the read. 694 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: Don't worry about it, I still say. But I say Twitter, I. 695 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 5: Like, I don't. 696 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 7: I don't even realize it when I read. 697 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 3: It, because it didn't because I, yes, I refuse it. 698 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 7: It's Twitter. 699 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: It is Twitter. The little blue bird, a little blue bird, 700 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 2: all right. 701 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 3: See, let's let's go back to one game going on 702 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 3: right now. 703 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 2: It is Georgia and it's Texas arch manning. 704 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 3: At the start of the season, he was supposed to 705 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 3: be the Heisman favorite, supposed to come out, they were 706 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 3: handing him the trophy, and then Texas comes out to 707 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,719 Speaker 3: a really rough start. But they've put some wins together. 708 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 3: All of a sudden, you're like, okay, they don't. 709 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 2: They don't look as bad as maybe you thought at 710 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 2: the start of the season. But Arch Manning. 711 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 3: Now, in the last two games, I'm gonna give it 712 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 3: to him. He has thrown for three hundred plus yards 713 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 3: three touchdowns against SEC. 714 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 2: You know team so all great and dandy, but a 715 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 2: lot of. 716 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 3: Those yards came after the catch, Like I feel like 717 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 3: that's a little bit deceiving. So, now nine games in 718 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 3: ten games in what is your assessment of Arch Manning. 719 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 5: He's an average quarterback. 720 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: He's an average quarterback with the name Manning. 721 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 4: Right, I mean, and this is no knock on him. 722 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 4: His father Cooper, the non quarterback brother. You know, he's 723 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 4: not Peyton's son, and he's not Eli Sutton. He's Cooper son. 724 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 4: And so I mean, I'm not gonna say it's one 725 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 4: of the great con jobs of all time. 726 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 5: But think about this. He sat for. 727 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 4: Two full years behind a quarterback that ended up being 728 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 4: a seventh round draft pick in the NFL, And I'm thinking, 729 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 4: if he was that. 730 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 5: Good, why is he not playing? 731 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 4: And meanwhile, he was making millions in NIL and obviously 732 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 4: then finally we had to unveil him. In his third 733 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 4: year at Texas, they had the opening game against Ohio State, 734 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 4: and by the way, that game was actually worse if 735 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 4: you watch the film than what you actually saw in 736 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 4: the game, because the problem was their worse the receivers there. 737 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 5: He just didn't pull the trigger. 738 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 4: And so again when you go back even to his 739 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 4: high school years, he was at one of those high 740 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 4: schools where they're playing a lesser competition. He's rolling up 741 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 4: numbers and his name is Arch Manning. So you know, look, 742 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 4: he's not going to go into the NFL Draft. He's 743 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 4: going to come back to Texas next year. 744 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 2: Yep, that's what I think too. 745 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 4: Right now, he's not doing a whole lot. Georgia's up 746 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 4: fourteen to three over Texas. 747 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 5: He's like seven for eleven and seventy five yards, not 748 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 5: really doing anything. And we'll see next year. But right now, 749 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 5: I mean he would not be anywhere near a first 750 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 5: round pick. 751 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. But I'm not going to say it 752 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 4: was a great con job. But in this day and 753 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 4: age of nil money, you can make millions and millions 754 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 4: of dollars as a collegiate athlete without actually doing anything, 755 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 4: and that really has been the story of Arch Manning. 756 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: I think Hartman would say that Texas Longhorns are guilty 757 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 3: of counniness. 758 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,439 Speaker 2: What else or who else would we say is guilty. Well, 759 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 2: we're going to get into sports court next, so don't 760 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 2: go anywhere.

There you go, So yeah, maybe I would. 821 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 2: There you go. 822 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 7: Lamello Ball, come to the stand. 823 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 2: Lamello Ball, what did he do? 824 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,919 Speaker 9: Back in the twenty twenty NBA draft of Minnesota, timber 825 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 9: took Anthony Edwards first of all, but at the time 826 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 9: he wasn't considered a consensus number one overall pick. LaMelo 827 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 9: Ball was in that conversation too well. In a recent 828 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 9: episode of the Zach Low podcast, The Athletics that John 829 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 9: Krazinski shared on an interesting tidbit about LaMelo's pre draft process, 830 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 9: which might have played into the Minnesota's decision to pass 831 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 9: on him. Apparently in an interview, when the Timbers asked 832 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 9: LaMelo about his post basketball plans, he responded that he 833 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,439 Speaker 9: wants to be presidents of the United States. I guess 834 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 9: he's really shooting for the stars. So what do you think, 835 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 9: LaMelo Ball guilty or not guilty? 836 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 5: Well, I don't have a problem with LaMelo Ball. He 837 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 5: can be whatever he wants to be. 838 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 4: I mean, first of all, when it comes to president 839 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 4: of the United States, and this goes for every man 840 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,359 Speaker 4: because there's never been a woman yet yet that has 841 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 4: held the position. Their path to be in the president 842 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 4: there is no exact. 843 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 2: Path, right right, I mean at all. 844 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 5: Everyone talks about Trump, but I mean, I mean, how 845 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 5: about Harry Drewan never graduated college, he never attended college, 846 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 5: and he became the president of the United States. So 847 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,959 Speaker 5: I if LaMelo Ball wants to be president or power 848 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 5: to him. 849 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I'm letting him go. You're not guilty. Why. 850 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 2: I mean, like, this is what if. 851 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 3: I'm interviewing someone and they tell me something like they 852 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 3: have this aspiration that is like so crazy outside of 853 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,879 Speaker 3: the job that I'm interviewing him for, I'd be. 854 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 2: Like yes, I love that you have that aspiration. 855 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 3: Go be president, but first I need you to go 856 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 3: win me an NBA championship. 857 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 9: Not guilty show's ambition. Let's do this one quick. Bill 858 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 9: Belichick come to the stand. 859 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: Guilty boy. 860 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 9: He may be one of the greatest NFL coaches in history, 861 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 9: but a new statement he just released he will not 862 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 9: be pursuing any. 863 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 7: NFL head coaching opportunities. 864 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 9: Belichick says he has great respect to the Giants in 865 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 9: their ownership, but shut down any speculation that he's trying 866 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,760 Speaker 9: to get back on the sideline. Is he truly done 867 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 9: or is this just misdirection from Bill? 868 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 7: Is he guilty or un guilty? 869 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 3: He's guilty because Jordan Hudson is still around, so. 870 00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 2: In a straight to jail. I don't know what's go 871 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 2: I don't believe. 872 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 3: I bet you she's the one writing these emails and 873 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 3: speaking and saying he's that he's not interested guilty. 874 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 5: His post Tom Brady run in New England spoke volumes, 875 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 5: and obviously what has happened in North Carolina has spoken 876 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 5: more volumes. This is his way of turning down a 877 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 5: job that was never offered to him. Nobody has interest 878 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 5: in him. Right now in the NFL to hire him. 879 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 5: So he says, well, you know, I'm not interested in 880 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,760 Speaker 5: the end, They're not interested in you. 881 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 10: Man. 882 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 3: Guilty, guilty, Come on, that is false Scot on the 883 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 3: other side, Divas, that's right. 884 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 2: What's up everybody? 885 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 3: Thanks for tuning in to our number two on this Saturday. 886 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 3: As you heard Steve Hartman in for Martin Weise who 887 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:48,319 Speaker 3: is off fulfilling his husband duties.

The good news is it looks like 899 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 4: they can survive the rest of the halt. There's sixteen 900 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,800 Speaker 4: seconds ago. The problem is down twenty four and nothing. 901 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 4: By the way Jillian's saying it, came into the game 902 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 4: completing eighty point nine percent of. 903 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 5: His passes, which, by the way, no one has ever. 904 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 4: Done eighty percent in a Division one season, and in 905 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 4: this game he's completing ninety percent. 906 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 3: Of course, yes, is that a testament to how bad 907 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 3: UCLA's defense is or is that a testament to how 908 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 3: good he is? 909 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 4: I think a little of both, low both, But I mean, 910 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 4: remember Indiana beat UCLA fifty six to six, and I 911 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 4: think Ryan Day is aware. 912 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: Of trying to get there, so he wants. 913 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 5: To make sure that we beat UCLA as bad, if 914 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 5: not worse than Indiana than Indiana did. 915 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:55,280 Speaker 2: But has has. 916 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 3: Ohio State had multiple games? Indiana has crushed everyone they 917 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 3: could until the Penn Stake, until the Penn State game, 918 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,760 Speaker 3: but they were literally like trying to crush your soul. 919 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if played like that all season. 920 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 4: They haven't, But I mean, look, if you're gonna go 921 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 4: man for man, Ohio State just has better talent than 922 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,280 Speaker 4: in the end. Yes, that doesn't mean they're a better team. 923 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 4: It just means they have more talent. And we'll see 924 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 4: how that plays out again. What we're looking at, folks, 925 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 4: unless they stumble again. 926 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 5: To Michigan like they did last year. 927 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 4: And Michigan's a little bit better, although they have the 928 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 4: freshman quarterback and he showed it today through a couple 929 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,760 Speaker 4: of picks. They had five turnovers against Northwestern, still survive 930 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 4: that game. But let's just assume that Ohio State and 931 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 4: Indiana went out and we have a battle of unbeaten's, 932 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 4: Heisman's on, everything's on the line for that game. Ohio 933 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 4: State obviously be favored in that game. But but that 934 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 4: doesn't mean. 935 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 5: They'll win that. 936 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. 937 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:51,440 Speaker 7: Uh. 938 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 3: There's a couple of big matchups in the NFL coming up, 939 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 3: you know, to wrap up Week eleven, and one of 940 00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 3: the teams that has a big matchup the Eagles. But 941 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 3: the Eagles have a diva problem? 942 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:09,240 Speaker 2: Is that what they have a diva problem amongst other things. Listen, 943 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 2: they're they're in it. What are they? Seven and two? 944 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 3: They won three in a row. Although it hasn't been 945 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 3: a pretty season. When was it that the was it 946 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 3: last year? 947 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 2: The Chiefs were like, yeah, they're they're ten and two, 948 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 2: but they're not that good. You look at the Eagles, 949 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 2: Oh that's not great. 950 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 4: That's when you have a punt right before the half 951 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 4: that you drill into the chest of someone that's five 952 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 4: yards away from you. There was sixteen seconds left and 953 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 4: a half. I said, well, least you see like I 954 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 4: can literally change the course of anything with very words. 955 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 4: It's unbelievable. 956 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 5: So Ohio State will have a few seconds left to 957 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 5: try to add to the lead, but the guy literally 958 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 5: hit it off the side of his foot right into 959 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 5: the chest of the Ohio State defender who wasn't really 960 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 5: going to block it. So, okay, so that was just 961 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 5: shocked the right. Yeah, bad, that was That was here. 962 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 4: Here's the thing about And I was hearing our dear 963 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 4: friend TJ Huschman Zada talk about this today on their 964 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:12,760 Speaker 4: show earlier today, and so he was defending AJ Brown, okay, 965 00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 4: and the reason again obviously TJ former Pro Bowl wide 966 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 4: receiver in his own right, he goes, understand this, my 967 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:24,280 Speaker 4: livelihood depends on me producing numbers as a wide receiver, 968 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:28,399 Speaker 4: just like it would for anybody. He goes, Imagine you're 969 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 4: hired to do a job and then they are preventing 970 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 4: you from doing your job. That's the way he was 971 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 4: able to sort of explain the AJ Brown situation. My 972 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 4: retort to that would be this, that's fun if you're 973 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 4: frustrated in how many touches you're getting or why am 974 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,959 Speaker 4: I not a bigger part of this offense? Especially since 975 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 4: our offense isn't really producing a lot, you don't do 976 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 4: it publicly. That's that's where AJ Brown has crossed. It's 977 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 4: not because he repeats it. 978 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:01,280 Speaker 5: Now. One thing about I know Philip Helia media really well, 979 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 5: and so they'll bait you. 980 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 4: I mean, they know how to beta guy like this. 981 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 4: You know, they'll get this guy to start talking because 982 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 4: they'll say, wow, you got to be frustrated again. 983 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 5: What'd you get? 984 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 4: You know, three touches, you know, the targets in the 985 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 4: game and everything else, and you got to shy away 986 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 4: from that and unfortunately keeps opening his mouth. 987 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,399 Speaker 2: And let's actually play what he said. 988 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 3: Okay, we've got sound of aj Brown on a live 989 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 3: Twitch stream and this is what kicked everything off for 990 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 3: this week. 991 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 7: If you've got me on Fantasy, there, you're. 992 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 6: Rid of the perfect. 993 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 2: If you got me on Fantasy, get rid of me. 994 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:39,280 Speaker 5: You have him on Fantasy. 995 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 3: No, I have DeVante Smith and it's worked out for 996 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 3: me because he's being a bit of a. 997 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 2: Diva, which is not something new. 998 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 3: And listen, divas can can coexist and work together. And 999 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 3: when we saw Kobe and Shaq do it for many 1000 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 3: years until they got tired of each other and then 1001 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 3: went their separate ways. 1002 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 2: So this, this diva mentality is it's not new. It's 1003 00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 2: not like the Eagles are not used to this type 1004 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 2: of behavior either. 1005 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 3: So AJ Brown on a live stream of Twitch says 1006 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 3: that gets asked about it, and this is what he 1007 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 3: had to say, because after. 1008 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 12: The game, I said all the right answers, I still 1009 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 12: made a story. You know that in that moment where 1010 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 12: I'm just talking to my friend having fun with my friend. 1011 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 7: I'm not apologizing for that. 1012 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 12: Like like I said, because if you have eyes, you 1013 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 12: can see that, and so like it's not that I 1014 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 12: was throwing anybody on the bus. I'm literally trying to 1015 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 12: laugh through this, but I'm trying to make fun of 1016 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 12: the situation and to try to get through it. 1017 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 6: So you know, it is what it is. 1018 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,240 Speaker 3: Four games this season where he's recorded below thirty receiving yards. 1019 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 3: But in that clip, he says, I said the right 1020 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,760 Speaker 3: thing after the game. But that's what we're saying, AJ Brown. 1021 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 3: You say one thing and then you think you can 1022 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 3: spin it by saying the right thing quote unquote, and 1023 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,760 Speaker 3: like we're gonna forget what you said earlier. 1024 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 4: Okay, So okay, this is sort of a catch twenty 1025 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 4: two for him. Obviously, he's a man that has talent 1026 00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,399 Speaker 4: and we've seen some huge numbers from aj On over 1027 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 4: the course of his career. But the problem right now 1028 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 4: is is that the Eagles are proving they can win 1029 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 4: without aj Brown, right, So how valuable is AJ Brown? 1030 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 4: I mean if he's if he's barely registering a pulse 1031 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 4: in this offense and they're still winning games, then how 1032 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 4: valuable is he? So you know, he may be frustrated 1033 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 4: and then let's say, fine, we'll ship you off to 1034 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 4: some you know, non playoff team where you could get 1035 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,359 Speaker 4: a bunch of empty numbers. Had your stats that will 1036 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 4: not translate into wins. So what exactly is your legacy here? 1037 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 3: It seems like he doesn't care about his legacy, right, 1038 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,400 Speaker 3: He just wants to have high numbers because he's already 1039 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 3: a Super Bowl winner? So is that why he doesn't 1040 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 3: care about winning another one? Because that's been checked off 1041 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 3: his list? So now he just wants it to be 1042 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 3: that he has all. 1043 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,720 Speaker 2: These receptions and all these yards and all these touchdowns. 1044 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 3: I don't know, but if I'm Nick Sirianni, I'm frustrated, 1045 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 3: and it sounds like he is frustrated as he responded 1046 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:02,879 Speaker 3: to the media. 1047 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 13: I'm close to being done answering these questions with us. 1048 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:11,760 Speaker 13: Like he's working hard and he is a big part 1049 00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 13: of this game plan and it'll be a big part 1050 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 13: of the game plan going forward. 1051 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 3: So you move forward with him and you just try 1052 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,320 Speaker 3: and go as there's no problem. 1053 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 2: Is that how you approach this. 1054 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 3: You're about to face the Lions, You're coming into to 1055 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 3: the second half of the season. 1056 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:26,720 Speaker 2: How is this not a distraction? 1057 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,959 Speaker 4: Well, you could say it's a distraction, but they're still 1058 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,440 Speaker 4: sitting with the seven to two records, So I mean, 1059 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,399 Speaker 4: as long as the Eagles are where they are now, 1060 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 4: if they start losing games and then that's a whole 1061 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 4: different story. 1062 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 5: So at this point, it's just sort of a distraction. 1063 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,399 Speaker 4: It doesn't look good for him because unfortunately he has 1064 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 4: been baited by the media to talk about this, and 1065 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 4: he bites and he continues to voice his frustration that 1066 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 4: he's not more of this offense. But you know, again 1067 00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 4: from Nick Sirianni's standpoint, look, I'm we've been trying to 1068 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 4: get our superstar running back, who is the number one 1069 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 4: guy in our offense untracked. I mean his numbers are 1070 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 4: way down from where they were a year ago. So 1071 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:14,400 Speaker 4: overall the entire offense has been discombobulated. And then in 1072 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 4: spite of that, they are still winning the problem again 1073 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 4: for and again. I go back what TJ houschman Zada 1074 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,240 Speaker 4: was saying earlier today is because it's about getting paid. 1075 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 4: I love that about TJ because he's very honest. And 1076 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 4: so if his deal comes up and he has no 1077 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 4: more guaranteed money in his contract, negotiated a new deal 1078 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:35,919 Speaker 4: with the Eagles. 1079 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 5: And they're like, see, you know, numbers are really down. 1080 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 5: AJ numbers are down. 1081 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,360 Speaker 4: Sorry, I mean, there no way we can pay you 1082 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 4: what you were making because look, the numbers aren't there anymore. 1083 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 5: I don't know if that's by design. 1084 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 6: See that? 1085 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 5: See that? 1086 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 4: That's where you would get a little bit into that 1087 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 4: paranoid shale. Are you guys purposely locking me out of 1088 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:59,800 Speaker 4: the offense to bring my salary number? 1089 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 3: Okay, I didn't think of it from that perspective, But 1090 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 3: you're also not making yourself look good for another team 1091 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 3: to want to take a. 1092 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 5: Chance on you exactly. 1093 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 2: That's that's kind. 1094 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 3: Of like the double edged sort of he's it seems 1095 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 3: like he's got a lot around him. Because it's like 1096 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 3: if if you're worried about your guaranteed money, which that 1097 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 3: seems that's very common for us to hear from players, 1098 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:27,399 Speaker 3: but you're you're not selling it to other teams that 1099 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 3: you can come in and fit into a system easily. 1100 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:34,680 Speaker 3: It seems like you're going to cause problems. And the 1101 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,399 Speaker 3: Eagles are winning, but like last week, they're winning, You're 1102 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 3: you're not going to beat many teams when you score 1103 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,640 Speaker 3: just ten points. So there's it's it's they're winning, but 1104 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 3: they're they're surviving. They're surviving, and they didn't they don't 1105 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,800 Speaker 3: look I think, as good as they want to look. 1106 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 3: And here you're coming down to again the later part 1107 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 3: of the season where you're about to face some teams 1108 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 3: like the Lions, I mean, the Cowboys grow up and down, 1109 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 3: the Bears, the Bills, commanders out, the window chargers, like, 1110 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 3: it's not going to be an easy rest of the 1111 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 3: way for the Eagles to tighten up and get it together. 1112 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 3: And I just don't know what you do with aj 1113 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 3: Brown because you obviously didn't trade him. He's still on 1114 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 3: your bench. He's still sitting there, not on the bench, 1115 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 3: but you're not utilizing him. You can't just put him 1116 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:20,720 Speaker 3: off to the side. 1117 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 2: He'll get more vocal. 1118 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 4: I mean, the irony of this entire thing is, so 1119 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 4: you know, he was with the Titans, you know, and 1120 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:29,920 Speaker 4: they weren't a passing team obviously at the same you know, 1121 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 4: Derek Hendrick Henry, so they're running the ball. So he 1122 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 4: comes to Philadelphia and they had those two first years 1123 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 4: were monster years, over fourteen hundred yards receiving, and they're 1124 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 4: targeting him a third of the time, more than he 1125 00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:46,040 Speaker 4: was being targeted in Tennessee. So really it was the 1126 00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 4: Eagles that gave him an opportunity to showcase his talent. 1127 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 4: Last year, the numbers were already heading downward because why 1128 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 4: sekwon Barclay ran for two thousand yards. 1129 00:51:57,800 --> 00:51:58,359 Speaker 5: Look at it. 1130 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 4: The problem again this year is that Barkley hasn't been producing. 1131 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 4: They've had some changes on the offensive line, but the 1132 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:07,959 Speaker 4: Eagles are always going to be a. 1133 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:09,399 Speaker 5: One first team. 1134 00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:12,359 Speaker 4: This wasn't going to be like this forever where aj 1135 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,320 Speaker 4: Brown was going to have you know, one hundred catches. 1136 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 4: I mean, you look at the numbers that he had 1137 00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,399 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty two and twenty twenty three, got eighty 1138 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:21,440 Speaker 4: eight passes, which in this day and age is a 1139 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 4: big number, but not out of site number. Then he 1140 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,439 Speaker 4: caught one hundred and six passes in twenty twenty three, 1141 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,720 Speaker 4: well over fourteen hundred yards both times. Look, aj Brown 1142 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 4: is a really good receiver, a really good receiver. 1143 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 5: Is he Is he one in the top five? No 1144 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:35,440 Speaker 5: he's not. 1145 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:38,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say no. And the way he's acting, 1146 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 2: he's acting like he is, right, I. 1147 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 5: Mean, I'm sorry, I mean. And then these these receivers 1148 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:46,880 Speaker 5: they come and go and we talk about receivers and 1149 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 5: in terms like wow, this guy is like the best 1150 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,440 Speaker 5: guy ever, and then they all of a sudden they're not. 1151 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 5: You know, that's the problem with being a wide receiver. 1152 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,120 Speaker 5: Somebody has to throw you the ball. There's nothing else 1153 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,360 Speaker 5: you can do. You know. It's not like a running 1154 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 5: back where they're going to hand you the ball and 1155 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 5: then you do your thing. 1156 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,360 Speaker 4: You need a quarterback that can actually get you to 1157 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 4: the ball. It was like Randy Moss, right, he comes 1158 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 4: in the league. It's got rand o'cunneyam they got this 1159 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 4: dynamic offense in Minnesota. 1160 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 5: Then he ends up with the Raiders. They had no 1161 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,920 Speaker 5: quarterback and so for two years, he completely fell off 1162 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 5: the map and they basically gave him away to New England. 1163 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 5: His first year in New England. 1164 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 4: He breaks all the records because he has oh I 1165 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 4: don't know Tom Brady throwing the ball. So again, I 1166 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 4: don't want to downplay wide receivers because there are receivers insane. 1167 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 5: But at the same time, there's nothing he can do 1168 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 5: about it. And if he would rather play for a 1169 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 5: bad team and put up numbers then having less production 1170 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,479 Speaker 5: on a team that is a Super Bowl champion, super 1171 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 5: Bowl contender, yeah, that says a lot about his character 1172 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,439 Speaker 5: and his priority in what almost every player will tell 1173 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:54,720 Speaker 5: you is the ultimate team sport. 1174 00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 3: And at this point we've have just had so many 1175 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 3: conversations of Ajun not being a team player. 1176 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 2: At this point, it is what it is. 1177 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 3: If it quacts like a duck, that's duck, right, Like 1178 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 3: he's unhappy until you just give him. 1179 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 4: As he said, at any point here, you're misinterpreting what 1180 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 4: I say. 1181 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,280 Speaker 5: No, he hasn't said any of that, No, but he thinks. 1182 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 3: He says other things after games where he's like, I 1183 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:20,880 Speaker 3: just want to help the team, and I want to 1184 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 3: He has said things like that in order to kind of, 1185 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 3: I think. 1186 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 4: But he wants to help the team by getting the ball, by. 1187 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,799 Speaker 3: Getting the ball more right, and like you pointed out, 1188 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 3: they've won without. 1189 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 2: Him, right. 1190 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 4: But I mean again, they're another They're like all these 1191 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 4: teams right now where you're like, are they really there? 1192 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 4: You know, I'll be honest with you right now, the 1193 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 4: Eagles are a team we have not talked about in 1194 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:47,319 Speaker 4: the show. 1195 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 5: Right now, in my mind currently is the best team 1196 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 5: in the NFL. We have not mentioned this team once 1197 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 5: today in the NFC. 1198 00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 2: Are they in the entire v but are they in 1199 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 2: the in the NFC?

You mentioned that afterwards. 1315 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, she was probably like you made me look kind 1316 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 3: of silly for a second, but she she handled it 1317 01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:05,960 Speaker 3: really well that you kind of if you didn't notice it, 1318 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 3: you didn't notice it right, Like she didn't stay there looking. 1319 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,439 Speaker 4: Or like you if you were in her position, would 1320 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 4: you have been upset? 1321 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:15,320 Speaker 2: No, because it's the dog. I understand, you know what 1322 01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 2: I'm saying. I've just been like, well. 1323 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 5: The thing about it is, though you don't want to 1324 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 5: kiss the dog and then kiss her, right, you know, 1325 01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:21,880 Speaker 5: but you can't. 1326 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 2: I mean I I I understood. 1327 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 3: I thought it was funny too, but I thought it 1328 01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 3: was more like innocent in the moment, Like I don't 1329 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 3: think he thought about it. 1330 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 2: He just went for the dog a baby. They also, 1331 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:32,320 Speaker 2: where's the baby? 1332 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,120 Speaker 5: The dog is there? I mean, the dog's a star 1333 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:36,200 Speaker 5: apparently in that house. 1334 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 3: Did you also noticed? Because I'm sure you'll love this 1335 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 3: in case you missed it. He had a translator, right, 1336 01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 3: so he's right. But then at the end the guys 1337 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 3: talking to him through the screen were like, oh, is 1338 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 3: decoy gonna get like an extra treat? 1339 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 2: And he he did not need a translator to tell. 1340 01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,480 Speaker 3: Him that, and he was like, yeah, Like it makes 1341 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 3: me laugh when he doesn't use a translator. 1342 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,800 Speaker 4: I don't understand this at the parade, so they were 1343 01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 4: at Dodger Stadium. Now you're do you know, but Yamamoto 1344 01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 4: did speak a little English. You can tell with him 1345 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:08,040 Speaker 4: it's a little newer. Yeah, Sho Hay has played eight 1346 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 4: Major League seasons yep, eight yep. And then he spoke 1347 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 4: rather clearly English at the parade. Why are we still 1348 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 4: with this interpreter. You don't have to be perfect, No, 1349 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 4: give it. And I go back to Fernando Vealezuela, who 1350 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:25,680 Speaker 4: was much younger at the time. He had an interpret 1351 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 4: for like three years and then all of a sudden 1352 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 4: he was speaking English. 1353 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 2: Right now, it's going. 1354 01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:32,560 Speaker 3: To be a security blanket at this point, because it's 1355 01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 3: just it's funny. 1356 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:36,120 Speaker 2: It's funny. It is funny, not funny. 1357 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 3: In the American League side of things, where the MVP 1358 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 3: was a big question mark, it was it was up 1359 01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:50,919 Speaker 3: until the very end, who and you could argue either side. 1360 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:55,240 Speaker 3: I felt like there was a good argument for Aaron Judge. 1361 01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 3: There was also a good argument for cal Rawly and 1362 01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:01,920 Speaker 3: maybe the this is why I am not a voter, 1363 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 3: but I would have maybe voted what do I say, 1364 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 3: emotionally and would have voted for Cal Rawly. 1365 01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 4: All right, So in the history and I follow this 1366 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 4: closely as you know, over the years with Major League Baseball, 1367 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:16,760 Speaker 4: and they've been voting for MVPs for almost one hundred years. 1368 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 5: The modern MVP, they're all over the map. Yeah, Like 1369 01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 5: You've had guys that have. 1370 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 4: Had great stats on bad teams that didn't make the playoffs, 1371 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 4: and then you've had guys with mediocre stats whose team 1372 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 4: did make the playoffs. Kirk Gibson the prime example of 1373 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 4: this with the Dodgers back in nineteen eighty eight, he 1374 01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 4: won the MVP award. Darryl Strawberry with the Mets, had 1375 01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 4: better stats, but everyone recognized that, you know, it was 1376 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 4: the emotional leader that he had brought the Dodgers back 1377 01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 4: from the dead. And this is before obviously the home 1378 01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 4: run in the World Series. So this was really the 1379 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:51,520 Speaker 4: question because judges numbers were literally off the charts crazy. 1380 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 4: The majors, not just the American League, the majors in 1381 01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 4: what I call the modern day triple Crown, which is 1382 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:02,080 Speaker 4: batting average, on base percentage, slugging, percentage, so he led 1383 01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 4: the majors in all three of those categories. On the 1384 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:09,520 Speaker 4: flip side, cal Rawly, let's take away the fact that 1385 01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 4: he hit sixty home runs as a catcher or also 1386 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 4: led the American League and runs bad at it. He 1387 01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 4: led the Mariners to their first division title in twenty 1388 01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 4: four years, and his consistency throughout the year was remarkable 1389 01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 4: because normally, when you're catching that many games, by the 1390 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:27,960 Speaker 4: end of the season, guest, you're really gassed, and it 1391 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 4: really usually reflects at the plate absolutely, and it. 1392 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:33,840 Speaker 5: Didn't with cal And he gets to the sixty home runs. 1393 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:38,600 Speaker 5: If I had a vote, this is a really tough 1394 01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 5: t really hard. 1395 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 4: It's really hard because obviously it's unfortunate because in almost 1396 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 4: any other year cal Rawly wins the MVP award exactly. 1397 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 5: But judges numbers were so off the charts. And remember 1398 01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 5: the Yankees tied the Blue Jays were the best record 1399 01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:57,880 Speaker 5: in the American League, so they weren't like some also 1400 01:03:58,000 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 5: ran team. They had a lot of injury. 1401 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:03,000 Speaker 4: He's in judge was such a consistent for so, you know, 1402 01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 4: we talked about cal Rawly helping the Mariners win a division, Well, yeah, 1403 01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 4: the Yankees don't make the playoffs without Aaron Judge's season. 1404 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 2: Both were so valuable to their team. 1405 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 3: But in a day where like hitting is values so 1406 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:18,120 Speaker 3: much in baseball, what Aaron Judge did with a batting 1407 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,680 Speaker 3: average where nobody has a high batting. 1408 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 2: Average anymore, No, he managed to do it and do 1409 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 2: it well. 1410 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 3: He wasn't with power, with power right because sometimes you know, 1411 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 3: remember like luisad Eyes. 1412 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly went three straight batting right, but he was. 1413 01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 2: Just making contact and getting on base. Good for you 1414 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:35,400 Speaker 2: because well here. 1415 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 5: Arrise won the batting title and he had a war of. 1416 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 2: One exactly one exactly exactly. 1417 01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 5: Whinning a batting title to show you how you know, 1418 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:45,520 Speaker 5: it doesn't mean any it does. 1419 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 2: It really doesn't. 1420 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 3: But for Aaron Judge to do it the way he did, 1421 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:52,400 Speaker 3: I understood why it was such a tough decision. 1422 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 2: He won what seventeen of the thirteen first place the there. 1423 01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 4: Was thirty voters and they were first and second on 1424 01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:03,760 Speaker 4: Ald Bell. Okay, so seventeen first thirteen seconds rally had 1425 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 4: thirteen for seventeen seconds. It would have been great if 1426 01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:07,680 Speaker 4: they both had fifteen. 1427 01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:09,160 Speaker 2: It really, honestly, and. 1428 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 4: By the way, we did have a tie way back 1429 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 4: in nineteen seventy nine Willie Stargel and Keith Hernandez. And 1430 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 4: by the way, that was the year where Hernandez had 1431 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:19,520 Speaker 4: the better numbers, but Stargo was sort of recognized as 1432 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 4: just being the emotional leader of the pirates that year, 1433 01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,240 Speaker 4: and they tied, and so they both get an award. 1434 01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 5: That's the only time we've had a tie. 1435 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:27,600 Speaker 3: And that's where Baseball I think dropped the ball. You 1436 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 3: could have sneakily manipulated it and just made it a tie. 1437 01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, because nowadays, you know, it's interesting because and 1438 01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,800 Speaker 4: I've talked to John Paul Morosi about this, whereas. 1439 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 5: You know, he's been a long time member of the 1440 01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 5: Baseball Writers Association does vote for some of these awards. 1441 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 5: I go, there seems to be a lot more unity 1442 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:45,720 Speaker 5: in the voting. 1443 01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 4: A little bit now, Yeah, Like it seems like, you know, 1444 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,720 Speaker 4: the same guys are getting the same number of votes. 1445 01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 4: Like one guys that gets every third place vote.

You should 1460 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 2: have been the m v P. Aaron Judge.

So he looked at me, said you're 1630 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:56,840 Speaker 4: sitting in my seat, and then. 1631 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:57,679 Speaker 5: Got off the bus. 1632 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:00,960 Speaker 4: I got up and got off off that bus and 1633 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:04,519 Speaker 4: got on to another bus. So we get into the 1634 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:08,600 Speaker 4: LA airport and as I'm walking off the plane, I 1635 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 4: feel a hand on my shoulder. 1636 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:13,640 Speaker 5: I turn around. It's easily. 1637 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:20,799 Speaker 4: He looks at me and he goes, I had you going, yes, 1638 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 4: I go. I was not messing with you, Kenny at all. 1639 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:30,280 Speaker 4: He was such an amazing person. His career was cut. 1640 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:32,679 Speaker 6: Short kidney diseases, erics. 1641 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 4: So what happened was this And this was at the 1642 01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:37,559 Speaker 4: same time I was working for the RAID Organization and 1643 01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 4: Football Hall of Fame I was so excited for In fact, 1644 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,880 Speaker 4: I interviewed him when he got into the Hall of Fame. 1645 01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:47,439 Speaker 4: We sort of reminisced back to the USA days. But 1646 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 4: he was eating, he was taking advils. Advill was like 1647 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:54,880 Speaker 4: the new you know, ibuprofene thing and it looks like Eminem's. 1648 01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:58,640 Speaker 4: He was eating like twenty a day for months and 1649 01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 4: it shut down in kidneys. He eventually at kidney transplant. 1650 01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:05,080 Speaker 4: He never fully recovered, obviously ended his career. 1651 01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:06,000 Speaker 5: He maturely. 1652 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:07,839 Speaker 6: The label warning does mean something. 1653 01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:11,120 Speaker 4: It does that they didn't, and he sued the Seahawks. 1654 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:13,680 Speaker 4: He sued the NFL because they didn't step in and 1655 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:15,759 Speaker 4: do anything. It was settled out of court. 1656 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:18,679 Speaker 6: But needed a transplant, as I recall, makes it into 1657 01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:19,400 Speaker 6: his sixties. 1658 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:21,599 Speaker 5: He did, he did, and he had some heart problems 1659 01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:25,719 Speaker 5: as well. But he was a phenomenal person, an incredible player. 1660 01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:28,280 Speaker 5: So happy when he got into the Pro Football Hall 1661 01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 5: of Fame.

I'm 1680 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 3: talking about the Seahawks and the Rams facing off tomorrow. 1681 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 4: Okay, the Rams, as we speak right now, are the 1682 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:36,599 Speaker 4: best team in the NFL. 1683 01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:38,639 Speaker 2: It really does look that way. 1684 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 4: Okay, we talk about MVPs. Matthew Stafford has twenty five touchdowns. 1685 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 5: And two picks. 1686 01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 2: I know, it's crazy. 1687 01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:46,760 Speaker 4: So you have and by the way, DeVante Adams now 1688 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,880 Speaker 4: leads the NFL in receiving touchdowns. He has six in 1689 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 4: the last three games. Phoka Nakua speaks for himself. You've 1690 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:56,640 Speaker 4: got Kira Williams of Pro Bowl running back. You have 1691 01:17:56,680 --> 01:17:59,800 Speaker 4: a young defensive line that can get to the quarterback. 1692 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,599 Speaker 4: Who are the top three finishers in the Defensive Rookie 1693 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 4: of the Year voting A year ago. I said before 1694 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:09,599 Speaker 4: the season, you know this, Monci that if Matthew Stafford 1695 01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:12,080 Speaker 4: is healthy, remember his three season. 1696 01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:14,120 Speaker 2: The questions about his back back, yeah. 1697 01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:15,280 Speaker 5: Seizing up and everything else. 1698 01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 4: But I said, if he is healthy, they are the 1699 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,720 Speaker 4: biggest challenge to the Eagles in the NFC. Well, not 1700 01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 4: only has he stayed healthy, he has never played better. 1701 01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:27,360 Speaker 4: He is one of those very few players who played 1702 01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:30,280 Speaker 4: a long time. I was never a huge Matthew Stafford 1703 01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 4: guy that I am now a Matthew Stafford guy. 1704 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 2: I understand that. 1705 01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 3: I think coming into the season, I thought the Niners 1706 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:38,400 Speaker 3: were going to have the easiest route in that division 1707 01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:41,519 Speaker 3: because of their schedule, so I thought that they could 1708 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:43,120 Speaker 3: do some damage right a little bit. 1709 01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 2: The Rams. 1710 01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:48,160 Speaker 3: I just had questions because of Matthew Stafford and his injuries, 1711 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:49,439 Speaker 3: his age. 1712 01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:51,960 Speaker 2: His immobility. You just didn't know what the Rams could do. 1713 01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:54,760 Speaker 3: Now you have Devonte Adams, you have Pukinakua, you have 1714 01:18:54,800 --> 01:18:57,759 Speaker 3: Kien all the other stuff, but you had questions about 1715 01:18:58,040 --> 01:18:58,799 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford. 1716 01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 2: Then with the Seahawks, I really I just didn't think 1717 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:01,800 Speaker 2: that they would be this good. 1718 01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 3: But it seems like, the Seahawks are very good, really 1719 01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:06,840 Speaker 3: good in every department, and then their defense is like 1720 01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:08,040 Speaker 3: a little bit better than good. 1721 01:19:08,360 --> 01:19:10,440 Speaker 2: But this game, I'm. 1722 01:19:10,080 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 3: Trying to see who comes out on top, because the 1723 01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 3: Seahawks they I think they're second in sacks, and we 1724 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:19,519 Speaker 3: know Matthew Stafford is not the most mobile, Okay, Jackson 1725 01:19:19,560 --> 01:19:22,599 Speaker 3: Smith and Jig but leads the league in receptions. He's 1726 01:19:22,800 --> 01:19:25,240 Speaker 3: on target for something. He's a receiver in the league 1727 01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:28,160 Speaker 3: this year, this year, this year, by far, by far. 1728 01:19:28,360 --> 01:19:31,280 Speaker 3: And then we know that Sam Donald last year on 1729 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:35,800 Speaker 3: I would say a better Vikings team unraveled at the 1730 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:37,960 Speaker 3: end in important games. 1731 01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:42,040 Speaker 4: Yes, this is unimportant, yeah, for first place obviously in 1732 01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 4: the NFC. 1733 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:45,160 Speaker 5: West and also maybe in the NFC in the NFC 1734 01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:45,920 Speaker 5: as well as well. 1735 01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 3: So I mean, I just is Sam Donald going to 1736 01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:53,799 Speaker 3: be able to just hang on to what Sean McVay 1737 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:54,679 Speaker 3: is gonna throw at him? 1738 01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:58,880 Speaker 4: I Like I said, I just think right now, the 1739 01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:01,880 Speaker 4: Seahawks have been this surprise in Mike's been a really 1740 01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:06,200 Speaker 4: you know they you know the thing about the Seahawks 1741 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:09,080 Speaker 4: think about this. They got rid of Russell Wilson. 1742 01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:09,880 Speaker 5: At the right time, it seems. 1743 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:12,759 Speaker 4: Then they lucked into Gino Smith, and then they lucked 1744 01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:14,600 Speaker 4: and they got rid of the Gino Smith at the 1745 01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:16,600 Speaker 4: right time. And now you can say they sort of 1746 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:19,360 Speaker 4: lucked into Sam Darnold that he is actually as good 1747 01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:22,759 Speaker 4: as he saw a year ago with the Vikings. 1748 01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:26,400 Speaker 5: So I look, the Rams are at home. They went 1749 01:20:26,479 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 5: at the home. However, the Seahawks are four to oh 1750 01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:30,439 Speaker 5: on the road this year. 1751 01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 2: I don't know. I wonder if this will be in 1752 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 2: one of our picks next. Oh, what's up everybody? 1753 01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:40,439 Speaker 3: Our number three with Hartman and Bolanos here, that's right, 1754 01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:43,439 Speaker 3: Steve Hartman filling in for Martin and Weiss. I am 1755 01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:45,800 Speaker 3: Anti Bolanos, thanks for hanging out with us. Steve, you 1756 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:48,160 Speaker 3: were justin press with arch Manning I did. 1757 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:50,680 Speaker 4: He just threw a touchdown pass, and I'll tell you 1758 01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:52,519 Speaker 4: what was impressive about what was it? 1759 01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 11: So? 1760 01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:56,640 Speaker 4: Right now Texas now is within four down fourteen on 1761 01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:00,920 Speaker 4: the road against Georgia. But it was a long pass, 1762 01:21:01,160 --> 01:21:04,280 Speaker 4: but it was one of those where he took a 1763 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:08,800 Speaker 4: moment and looked at his options, and he checked down, 1764 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:12,680 Speaker 4: checked down, and then found the right receiver crossing to 1765 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:15,799 Speaker 4: the back of the end zone through an absolutely perfect 1766 01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:19,800 Speaker 4: pass and stride. So that was impressive because again, he's 1767 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:22,800 Speaker 4: been a little hesitant at times to really throw it 1768 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,600 Speaker 4: into traffic, which, by the way, when you get to 1769 01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:26,080 Speaker 4: the NFL level, it's. 1770 01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:26,920 Speaker 5: Always in traffick. 1771 01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:30,040 Speaker 4: You've got to trust your receivers get the ball somewhere 1772 01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:33,679 Speaker 4: near them that they can actually make a play. So, yeah, 1773 01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:35,719 Speaker 4: that looked like an NFL pass. 1774 01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:41,120 Speaker 3: There have been moments where Manning looks good, but the moments. 1775 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:44,760 Speaker 2: Are so small and far away from each other. 1776 01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:47,160 Speaker 4: Well, it just again, I don't know if it's putting 1777 01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 4: pressure on yourself to live up to the hype. 1778 01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:53,000 Speaker 5: I mean, this is a young guy, right. I always always. 1779 01:21:52,680 --> 01:21:55,640 Speaker 4: Think about that when you talk about these young quarterbacks 1780 01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:58,240 Speaker 4: and they're vying for you know, Heisman Trophy or All 1781 01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:00,880 Speaker 4: American honors, whatever, and there's so many pressure. There's so 1782 01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:05,840 Speaker 4: few games relative, so I think arch Manny was deer 1783 01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 4: in the headlights, especially going against well the number one 1784 01:22:08,479 --> 01:22:11,120 Speaker 4: team of the country of Io State, Texas. 1785 01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:13,080 Speaker 5: I know was number one going into that game. 1786 01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 4: But it has proven Ohio State as that team. And 1787 01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 4: then after that and all of a sudden you start 1788 01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:22,320 Speaker 4: having doubts about your ability. And so what's happening over 1789 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:24,160 Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks is he seems to have 1790 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:27,960 Speaker 4: gotten his stride back, and that was certainly one of 1791 01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:31,040 Speaker 4: those pass that we say, Okay, yeah, that's NFL good. 1792 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:34,160 Speaker 3: He's playing like he knows the playoffs are on the line. 1793 01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:37,519 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, it's an absolute must, absolutely, Mike to not 1794 01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:40,080 Speaker 5: get a third loss. Texas will not get into the 1795 01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:41,599 Speaker 5: playoff with three losses. 1796 01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 3: We'll see again.

Kansas City Chiefs are coming in 1809 01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 9: at minus four into the game. 1810 01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:14,280 Speaker 2: Minus four. I thought it was three and a half. Okay, 1811 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:14,720 Speaker 2: it was. 1812 01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:17,920 Speaker 9: It started minus three and a half. It changes after 1813 01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 9: a while, but yeah, so it's minus four right now, 1814 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 9: and that's where we're going to be locking in with 1815 01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:23,200 Speaker 9: Steve Well. 1816 01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:29,759 Speaker 5: I the Broncos are ugly. The Broncos are ugly, really ugly, 1817 01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:32,400 Speaker 5: and all the money is pouring in on the Chiefs 1818 01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:35,519 Speaker 5: in this game. Look at I again, home dog. When 1819 01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:38,920 Speaker 5: you're eight and two on a winning streak. Yeah, give 1820 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:40,800 Speaker 5: me the points. I'll take the Broncos. 1821 01:23:40,920 --> 01:23:42,320 Speaker 2: Really, here's the thing. 1822 01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:45,719 Speaker 3: Like the Broncos you just said, they have not looked great, 1823 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:49,439 Speaker 3: and Bonnicks looks good in short passes, but when you get. 1824 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 2: To like mid passes and long passes, he doesn't look as. 1825 01:23:52,439 --> 01:23:55,320 Speaker 3: Good as he He's just chucking the ball down, He's right, 1826 01:23:55,360 --> 01:23:56,639 Speaker 3: and probably guy can. 1827 01:23:56,479 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 5: Sistently overthrow the ball. That means he's just chucking he is. 1828 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:00,720 Speaker 2: Yes, you're probably right about that. 1829 01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:04,240 Speaker 3: Chiefs coming off of buye with Andy Reid are always 1830 01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:07,920 Speaker 3: are really good, and so I just don't know how 1831 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:10,360 Speaker 3: bo Nicks is going to survive against Steve Spagnolo. 1832 01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 2: Really, bo Nicks is not. I don't trust anything that 1833 01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:16,960 Speaker 2: that guy is doing this year. Give me the Chiefs 1834 01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 2: all right against the spread here, I look at the. 1835 01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:22,320 Speaker 4: Chiefs have to win if they have any designs on 1836 01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:26,080 Speaker 4: continuing their streak. What is it, eh, straight AFC West titles. 1837 01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:26,559 Speaker 2: They need. 1838 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:29,280 Speaker 5: They lose this game, it is over in terms of 1839 01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:30,000 Speaker 5: winning the division. 1840 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:31,920 Speaker 2: No Chiefs are gonna they got it. 1841 01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 3: They gotta win with with authority. 1842 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:40,480 Speaker 9: Go for a sha next game, Ravens versus my Browns. 1843 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:45,040 Speaker 9: Ravens are coming in a seven and a half favorites, 1844 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 9: Fazi take it away. 1845 01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 3: I don't like this game at all. Listen, your Browns 1846 01:24:52,120 --> 01:24:55,680 Speaker 3: are no bueno. They're not gonna win. It's just how 1847 01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 3: bad are they gonna lose? That's the question. But it's 1848 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,920 Speaker 3: also a division game where the Browns have beat the 1849 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,000 Speaker 3: Ravens in the past. They do make it hard for 1850 01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:06,519 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson and Baltimore. 1851 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:07,519 Speaker 7: We do beat the good teams. 1852 01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 2: You beat the. 1853 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 3: Good, you make it hard for good teams because your 1854 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:11,280 Speaker 3: defense is solid. 1855 01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:12,439 Speaker 2: Seven and a half. 1856 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:16,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna take the Browns to cover. 1857 01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:19,800 Speaker 2: I can see the Ravens winning. I'm gonna take that. 1858 01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:21,920 Speaker 3: I think the Ravens go win by a touchdown. But 1859 01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:23,519 Speaker 3: you know, I see the Browns cover. 1860 01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:24,000 Speaker 2: Why not? 1861 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:28,120 Speaker 5: Okay, the Ravens defense is not good. It's not Lamar. 1862 01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 4: It's better Lamar Jackson's numbers, guys, he has a passer 1863 01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:33,879 Speaker 4: radium one hundred and twenty seven he has fifteen touchdowns 1864 01:25:33,880 --> 01:25:36,080 Speaker 4: on one pick. I mean he's picked up right where 1865 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:39,280 Speaker 4: he left off before he got hurt. Seven and a 1866 01:25:39,320 --> 01:25:42,639 Speaker 4: half is a sucker line. I'm telling it is. Because 1867 01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 4: you see seven and a half, you're like, well, if 1868 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:47,880 Speaker 4: they only lose by seven, I win. Nope, I'm telling 1869 01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 4: you guys, the Ravens. It's a double digit victory for 1870 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:55,320 Speaker 4: the Ravens. They just have way too much firepower and 1871 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 4: the Browns can't score. They can't Gibrael is just not 1872 01:25:58,479 --> 01:25:59,960 Speaker 4: going to get it done. They don't seem to be 1873 01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:04,600 Speaker 4: concern about changing their quarterback. So no, I'll take the 1874 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:06,120 Speaker 4: Ravens to cover the seven and a half. 1875 01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:08,360 Speaker 9: Thank you for bringing me back to life after Bonci 1876 01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 9: gave me some hope there by the. 1877 01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:13,639 Speaker 4: Way, Ucla, by the way, is on the comeback trail, 1878 01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:16,559 Speaker 4: and they just scored thirty four to seven. Now, Ohio 1879 01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:20,280 Speaker 4: stated the comeback smelling comeback. 1880 01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:23,840 Speaker 2: Should didn't mean to give you hope. You keep not winning. 1881 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 9: You did a really good job though you're good at 1882 01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:28,760 Speaker 9: your job. Thanks, I have to give that to you. 1883 01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:31,800 Speaker 9: So next game, we got the Seahawks versus the Rams. 1884 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:33,760 Speaker 9: You guys have talked about it a little bit let's 1885 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,679 Speaker 9: give you some color on the betting field. The spread 1886 01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:39,000 Speaker 9: is opening up at minus three and a half for 1887 01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:43,400 Speaker 9: the Rams. Steve, I love the Rams. I'm sorry. 1888 01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:45,479 Speaker 4: I mean, like I said, the Rams are the best 1889 01:26:45,479 --> 01:26:48,200 Speaker 4: team right now this week, Week eleven in the NFL, 1890 01:26:48,240 --> 01:26:50,759 Speaker 4: the Rams are the best team currently in the NFL. 1891 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,040 Speaker 4: They will take care of business. They will cover the 1892 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 4: spread at least a touchdown win for the Rams at 1893 01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:57,479 Speaker 4: home against the Seahawks. 1894 01:26:57,760 --> 01:26:59,439 Speaker 3: I kind of agree with you a little bit, like, 1895 01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:01,519 Speaker 3: I don't why am I going to bet against the 1896 01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:04,679 Speaker 3: Rams right now? There's and it's more of like Sam Darnold, 1897 01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:07,320 Speaker 3: I need you to prove to me that you can 1898 01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:11,720 Speaker 3: win in a game like this. Stafford since Week four 1899 01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:15,320 Speaker 3: has thrown twenty touchdown passes without an interception since week. 1900 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:18,920 Speaker 5: One, Like I said, Adams, like they were trying to 1901 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:22,400 Speaker 5: kick earlier. Six touchdowns in the last three games. 1902 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, they've both won four in a row. They have 1903 01:27:25,640 --> 01:27:26,360 Speaker 2: the same record. 1904 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:30,400 Speaker 3: They're both top five in scoring offense and in scoring defense. 1905 01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:32,639 Speaker 2: They're both top ten in red zone defense. 1906 01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:34,200 Speaker 5: I know, look what happened to UCLA. 1907 01:27:34,760 --> 01:27:37,200 Speaker 4: They scored a touchdown, just gave up a kickoff return 1908 01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:37,759 Speaker 4: for a Touchdow. 1909 01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:39,599 Speaker 2: Well, then that means they get to go back on offense. 1910 01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:46,400 Speaker 10: Give me wow, I wish you could see see right 1911 01:27:46,439 --> 01:27:51,160 Speaker 10: now we got to cover all right, rams to cover, 1912 01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:53,040 Speaker 10: so both of you guys will be taking the rams. 1913 01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:54,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're taking off. 1914 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:55,639 Speaker 7: Next game, we got a big one. 1915 01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:57,559 Speaker 5: Buccaneersaid bills. 1916 01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:04,760 Speaker 9: Yeah, minus six for the Bills that opened that. 1917 01:28:06,760 --> 01:28:07,720 Speaker 7: Changing a little bit. 1918 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 2: Okay, start with this one. 1919 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 3: Listen, this one is uh, it's hard because the Bills 1920 01:28:16,280 --> 01:28:19,120 Speaker 3: just had an embarrassing loss. So I feel like they 1921 01:28:19,280 --> 01:28:21,120 Speaker 3: have to win. They have to come out. But the 1922 01:28:21,160 --> 01:28:24,439 Speaker 3: Buccaneers are also not going to just go away easily, 1923 01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:27,559 Speaker 3: even though without Bucky Irving, Like, I just don't I 1924 01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:30,759 Speaker 3: don't know what Tampa Bay can do right now. 1925 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:35,080 Speaker 2: But five and a half seems. 1926 01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:42,880 Speaker 3: So it's six seven, so they have to. I'm gonna 1927 01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 3: say the Bills come out and win in a dominant fashion. 1928 01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:53,040 Speaker 2: To make to make it more interesting in the NFL, 1929 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:54,880 Speaker 2: because I think some people are like, oh, give me 1930 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:56,639 Speaker 2: the Bills to cover, give me the bills to cover. 1931 01:28:56,520 --> 01:28:58,679 Speaker 5: At home, that's interesting MANSI. 1932 01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:02,760 Speaker 2: I yes, I'm not confident in my decisions. 1933 01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:05,559 Speaker 5: Well again, what do we know about the NFL? What 1934 01:29:05,560 --> 01:29:10,000 Speaker 5: what happened one week has no bearing on But again, 1935 01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:13,000 Speaker 5: the Bucks are coming off a loss, you know, a 1936 01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:14,840 Speaker 5: tough one at home at home. 1937 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:19,200 Speaker 4: Against the Patriots, and so I would say, you're. 1938 01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:21,519 Speaker 2: Going to Buffalo where it's cold. You're used to warm weather. 1939 01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:25,360 Speaker 5: I understand that. But Baker Mayfield played you know, sure, 1940 01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:28,200 Speaker 5: you know, you know he can play in cold weather. 1941 01:29:30,160 --> 01:29:31,519 Speaker 5: I'm going to take it. I'm going to take the 1942 01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:33,439 Speaker 5: Bucks to stay close in this game. 1943 01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:36,000 Speaker 4: You know, the Bills have had a couple of games 1944 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:40,000 Speaker 4: where teams didn't I mean the Saints covered the spread, yes, 1945 01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:40,759 Speaker 4: at Buffalo. 1946 01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:42,280 Speaker 5: No Saints exactly. 1947 01:29:42,479 --> 01:29:43,560 Speaker 2: Because the Saints. 1948 01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:45,639 Speaker 5: Could cover the spread at Buffalo, the Bucks can't. 1949 01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:47,840 Speaker 2: I'm ting but Billsy to get it into gear. 1950 01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 5: They do, by the way, they. 1951 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 4: Might pick to win the Super Bowl preseason, which of 1952 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:53,799 Speaker 4: course is the kiss of death. 1953 01:29:54,040 --> 01:29:57,639 Speaker 9: So this is the game where Baker Mayfield will show 1954 01:29:57,960 --> 01:29:58,559 Speaker 9: the MVP. 1955 01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:00,559 Speaker 2: Is here right, all right? 1956 01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:04,719 Speaker 9: Liones at Eagles the last game of the night on Sunday. 1957 01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:08,040 Speaker 9: It's at five to twenty pm Pacific Standard time. The 1958 01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:10,680 Speaker 9: Eagles are coming in at minus two and a half favorites. 1959 01:30:11,479 --> 01:30:13,240 Speaker 9: Steve finish this one off for us. 1960 01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:16,840 Speaker 4: This is a very interesting game, and we were talking 1961 01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:19,880 Speaker 4: obviously about the whole AJ Brown situation that just is 1962 01:30:20,160 --> 01:30:24,080 Speaker 4: lingering week after week after week. That's also a that's 1963 01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:27,280 Speaker 4: a weird line because you say, wait a second, Eagles 1964 01:30:27,320 --> 01:30:29,240 Speaker 4: only two and a half at home, they win by 1965 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:32,240 Speaker 4: a field goal. I come away a winner. I'm taking 1966 01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:37,200 Speaker 4: the Lions on the road. Yeah, I'm going to say 1967 01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:38,559 Speaker 4: the Lions cover that if not. 1968 01:30:38,680 --> 01:30:43,880 Speaker 3: Straight up, listen, Lions, along with the Chiefs and the Seahawks, 1969 01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:47,720 Speaker 3: are ranked top ten in both offense and defense. The 1970 01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:50,920 Speaker 3: offense for the Lions, I really don't know what the 1971 01:30:50,960 --> 01:30:53,720 Speaker 3: Eagles are going to do, and the Eagles beating the 1972 01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 3: Packers last week with just ten points on the board 1973 01:30:56,880 --> 01:31:00,599 Speaker 3: was not impressive at all. I am taking the Lions. Wow, 1974 01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:02,080 Speaker 3: Why I'm taking the Lions. 1975 01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:04,800 Speaker 2: I'm with you, Steve.

It's a chance that the 2200 01:41:08,560 --> 01:41:12,800 Speaker 6: last college football playoff spot goes to, for example, the 2201 01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:15,639 Speaker 6: Mean Green of North Texas, who are now nine and 2202 01:41:15,720 --> 01:41:16,519 Speaker 6: one back to you. 2203 01:41:17,040 --> 01:41:18,800 Speaker 2: Thank you so much, Steve Disager. 2204 01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:22,080 Speaker 3: I am Anti Blanas and he is Steve Hartman and 2205 01:41:22,120 --> 01:41:24,000 Speaker 3: I we're going to dive into a little more. 2206 01:41:23,880 --> 01:41:26,080 Speaker 2: College football here with JD.

But let's dive right into it. Let's 2211 01:41:39,160 --> 01:41:40,160 Speaker 2: starve right into it. 2212 01:41:40,800 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 3: Oklahoma, their defense takes down Alabama really at the end, 2213 01:41:46,560 --> 01:41:50,559 Speaker 3: getting that crucial stop and they win it. How big 2214 01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:53,040 Speaker 3: is this for Oklahoma? And really what does this mean 2215 01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:54,439 Speaker 3: for the Crimson Tide? 2216 01:41:55,840 --> 01:42:00,280 Speaker 11: It's absolutely huge. Oklahoma. You're staring down the barrel more 2217 01:42:00,320 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 11: games that are not nearly as difficult as the one 2218 01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:05,760 Speaker 11: you just won with the game against Missouri, in a 2219 01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:08,559 Speaker 11: game against LSU, and Missouri is gonna be out there 2220 01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 11: with the likely I shouldn't say likely, but it looks 2221 01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:13,960 Speaker 11: right now like it'll be a threshing quarterback. And then 2222 01:42:14,040 --> 01:42:17,280 Speaker 11: Elis You's got an interim head coach and like a 2223 01:42:17,360 --> 01:42:20,679 Speaker 11: question mark quarterback too. So for Oklahoma you're like, okay, now, hey, boys, 2224 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,640 Speaker 11: just walk this tight rope. The last two steps and 2225 01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:25,519 Speaker 11: we're in the dance attending two is how it would 2226 01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:28,160 Speaker 11: feel should this result hold with the Texas and Georgia. 2227 01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:33,640 Speaker 11: For Alabama, that IRONBLL is gonna have a little bit 2228 01:42:33,640 --> 01:42:36,760 Speaker 11: more juice than it already had before. And I'll say 2229 01:42:36,800 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 11: that because if Alabama loses one more game, they're out 2230 01:42:40,240 --> 01:42:42,600 Speaker 11: of the College football playoff. And can you imagine just 2231 01:42:42,680 --> 01:42:47,719 Speaker 11: the pandom moments if we're sitting here going into this season, 2232 01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:50,559 Speaker 11: Alabama has got one lost and they finished losing two 2233 01:42:50,560 --> 01:42:52,600 Speaker 11: of the last three and missed the dance for the 2234 01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:55,080 Speaker 11: second year in a row. People would the other happened. 2235 01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:58,280 Speaker 11: So to put it simply, it's massive for both sides. 2236 01:43:01,040 --> 01:43:04,200 Speaker 4: The thing about Alabama is this they still control their 2237 01:43:04,200 --> 01:43:07,719 Speaker 4: own destiny in terms of getting to the SEC Championship game. 2238 01:43:08,600 --> 01:43:10,439 Speaker 2: Hold on, I think we're gonna call JD back. 2239 01:43:10,520 --> 01:43:13,080 Speaker 5: I heard that interesting, Yeah. 2240 01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:15,040 Speaker 2: Because it sounds a little bit JAD.

It's amazing. In twenty 2246 01:43:24,960 --> 01:43:26,880 Speaker 5: twenty five that we have any of those kind of problems. 2247 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:28,360 Speaker 2: I know, Well, it's probably a little bit of the 2248 01:43:28,360 --> 01:43:28,960 Speaker 2: weather out here. 2249 01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:30,599 Speaker 3: Maybe, you know, we do have a little bit of 2250 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,000 Speaker 3: weather going on in southern California. 2251 01:43:33,120 --> 01:43:34,960 Speaker 4: All right, Well, JD, I just to follow up with 2252 01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:37,960 Speaker 4: Moncie was asking about Alabama. You say a third loss 2253 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:41,560 Speaker 4: ends their season, But I'm I'm just curious because Alabama 2254 01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:43,880 Speaker 4: still controls their own destiny in terms of getting to 2255 01:43:43,920 --> 01:43:46,640 Speaker 4: the SEC Championship game. And let's say they have a 2256 01:43:46,640 --> 01:43:50,160 Speaker 4: matchup against sexist A and M and they lose twenty 2257 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:54,120 Speaker 4: one to twenty. Okay, I get like it's an insanely 2258 01:43:54,240 --> 01:43:57,200 Speaker 4: competitive SEC Championship. 2259 01:43:56,520 --> 01:43:58,879 Speaker 5: Game that they lose by a point. 2260 01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:02,840 Speaker 4: Is there's still a chance that a three loss Alabama 2261 01:44:02,920 --> 01:44:05,080 Speaker 4: team could sneak into the playoffs? 2262 01:44:05,680 --> 01:44:08,080 Speaker 11: I think absolutely, so long as what you just said, 2263 01:44:08,120 --> 01:44:11,880 Speaker 11: the qualifier is that third loss comes in the SEC 2264 01:44:12,040 --> 01:44:15,880 Speaker 11: title game. I personally have a hard time seeing a 2265 01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:19,120 Speaker 11: three loss Alabama with losses to Oklahoma and Auburn down 2266 01:44:19,160 --> 01:44:22,240 Speaker 11: the stretch, finding their way into the SEC Title Game 2267 01:44:22,280 --> 01:44:24,519 Speaker 11: to begin with. But as long as they show up 2268 01:44:24,560 --> 01:44:27,200 Speaker 11: to that game in Atlanta where they play, and I 2269 01:44:27,200 --> 01:44:29,160 Speaker 11: mean they get the doors blown off quite frankly by 2270 01:44:29,200 --> 01:44:30,519 Speaker 11: A in M, and I think as long as it's 2271 01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:35,840 Speaker 11: still an Alabama team that showed up played, whether it's 2272 01:44:35,880 --> 01:44:38,120 Speaker 11: A and M, whether it's Georgia, however the math works 2273 01:44:38,160 --> 01:44:40,920 Speaker 11: out here. Moving to the final two weeks of the season, 2274 01:44:42,040 --> 01:44:44,360 Speaker 11: I still think Alabama would have a hard time getting 2275 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:47,559 Speaker 11: left out. Given where they're ranked this weekend and how 2276 01:44:47,560 --> 01:44:49,240 Speaker 11: far they're going to drop. I have a hard time 2277 01:44:49,280 --> 01:44:51,040 Speaker 11: seem them dropping outside that top ten. 2278 01:44:51,960 --> 01:44:55,320 Speaker 3: Before we fully move on away from Alabama with Heisman 2279 01:44:55,720 --> 01:44:58,559 Speaker 3: talk here, do you think ty Simpson just kind of 2280 01:44:58,960 --> 01:45:02,800 Speaker 3: dropped out of the highs men talk and Fernando Mendoza 2281 01:45:03,160 --> 01:45:04,439 Speaker 3: kind of is leading the way? 2282 01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:10,160 Speaker 11: I think Banana Mendoza is absolutely leading the way. I 2283 01:45:10,200 --> 01:45:12,519 Speaker 11: think ty Simpson I have a hard time writing him 2284 01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:14,360 Speaker 11: off just yet because of what we just mentioned. There's 2285 01:45:14,600 --> 01:45:16,720 Speaker 11: so much there're still for Alabama to play for. Like 2286 01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:18,880 Speaker 11: if they go win these next couple of games and 2287 01:45:19,240 --> 01:45:20,920 Speaker 11: they go beat A and M. Let's say it's an 2288 01:45:20,960 --> 01:45:22,800 Speaker 11: unbeaten A and M, and they play in Atlanta and 2289 01:45:22,840 --> 01:45:25,719 Speaker 11: ty Simpson goes gangbusters and throws for over three hundred 2290 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:28,840 Speaker 11: yards and four touchdowns. Heids in such a funny award 2291 01:45:28,840 --> 01:45:31,559 Speaker 11: because it's such a vibes award, it's such a what 2292 01:45:31,640 --> 01:45:33,599 Speaker 11: have you done for me lately? Award? And I think 2293 01:45:34,160 --> 01:45:37,080 Speaker 11: voters getting to see Ty Simpson carving up an unbeaten 2294 01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:39,639 Speaker 11: A and M as the last data point, I think 2295 01:45:39,720 --> 01:45:43,679 Speaker 11: that would be pretty difficult to refute now Forana Mendoza 2296 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:45,720 Speaker 11: could absolutely still do that in his own right and 2297 01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:48,280 Speaker 11: be the guy. But I'm not writing out Ty Simpson 2298 01:45:48,400 --> 01:45:49,759 Speaker 11: just yet with a couple. 2299 01:45:49,600 --> 01:45:52,160 Speaker 4: Of weeks left in November, well as someone that actually 2300 01:45:52,200 --> 01:45:54,280 Speaker 4: has a Heisman vote, I look at it. I look 2301 01:45:54,280 --> 01:45:57,120 Speaker 4: at Ohio State Indiana. Everything's going to be on the line. 2302 01:45:57,160 --> 01:45:59,720 Speaker 4: And assuming they've went out and they're both undefeated, one 2303 01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:03,439 Speaker 4: two the country Heisman number one seed in the playoffs, 2304 01:46:03,479 --> 01:46:05,559 Speaker 4: I think everything's going to be on writing. With saying 2305 01:46:05,800 --> 01:46:09,200 Speaker 4: completing eighty percent of his passes, he is a little 2306 01:46:09,240 --> 01:46:11,320 Speaker 4: bit harder to ignore. I want to get to South 2307 01:46:11,360 --> 01:46:16,040 Speaker 4: Florida losing today. Okay, so explain this to me, JD. 2308 01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:20,320 Speaker 4: We got to have this group of five team into 2309 01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:23,479 Speaker 4: the playoff, but what if there's no group of five 2310 01:46:23,600 --> 01:46:28,639 Speaker 4: team actually ranked in the playoff top twenty five? 2311 01:46:29,600 --> 01:46:31,160 Speaker 5: How would that be decided? 2312 01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:31,840 Speaker 11: On? 2313 01:46:31,880 --> 01:46:36,479 Speaker 4: Which team would be representedive or can do they have 2314 01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:39,200 Speaker 4: to be ranked in the top twenty five to actually 2315 01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:40,439 Speaker 4: get into the playoff. 2316 01:46:41,200 --> 01:46:43,280 Speaker 11: Yes, it's a good question, Glad you asked. So in 2317 01:46:43,320 --> 01:46:49,080 Speaker 11: these very first rankings, there was no Memphis or USF 2318 01:46:49,320 --> 01:46:52,400 Speaker 11: or JMU in the top twenty five, and so the 2319 01:46:52,439 --> 01:46:55,200 Speaker 11: way the committee went about that, they're still ranking these 2320 01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:57,800 Speaker 11: teams past twenty five, and so they say, okay, your 2321 01:46:57,880 --> 01:47:01,280 Speaker 11: quote unquote not ranked our top twenty five, but who's 2322 01:47:01,320 --> 01:47:05,200 Speaker 11: the highest ranked or highest viewed G five team at 2323 01:47:05,200 --> 01:47:07,000 Speaker 11: this point in time. So I think a lot of 2324 01:47:07,000 --> 01:47:08,800 Speaker 11: that's going to work itself out to where we will 2325 01:47:08,800 --> 01:47:10,880 Speaker 11: get a team that's ranked in the top twenty five 2326 01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:14,640 Speaker 11: from one of these G five championships. But I'll have 2327 01:47:14,680 --> 01:47:16,880 Speaker 11: to say, just because they're not top twenty five doesn't 2328 01:47:16,880 --> 01:47:19,479 Speaker 11: mean they won't still have a spot in this college 2329 01:47:19,479 --> 01:47:22,839 Speaker 11: football playoff if they're the highest ranked G five champion, 2330 01:47:23,400 --> 01:47:25,120 Speaker 11: even if that ranking is below twenty five. 2331 01:47:26,040 --> 01:47:29,760 Speaker 3: We saw major comeback today Texas A and M, which 2332 01:47:30,080 --> 01:47:32,920 Speaker 3: was supposed to be South Carolina the whole time, but 2333 01:47:33,040 --> 01:47:35,519 Speaker 3: they looked like they were hungover in the first half 2334 01:47:35,760 --> 01:47:38,000 Speaker 3: and then came out, put it together and win it 2335 01:47:38,040 --> 01:47:38,479 Speaker 3: thirty one. 2336 01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:39,080 Speaker 2: To thirty. 2337 01:47:39,439 --> 01:47:42,559 Speaker 3: Is there any knock on Texas A and M for 2338 01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:43,599 Speaker 3: how they won this game? 2339 01:47:44,840 --> 01:47:47,559 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean I think I'm glad you brought this up. 2340 01:47:47,600 --> 01:47:50,280 Speaker 11: I have two different thoughts on this. One is if 2341 01:47:50,320 --> 01:47:52,479 Speaker 11: you do that against a more well runned team, you're 2342 01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:55,200 Speaker 11: going to get beat. And it's not good to see 2343 01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:57,479 Speaker 11: that in the month of November, where let's face the 2344 01:47:57,520 --> 01:47:59,720 Speaker 11: AM's most important game they're about to be played here 2345 01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:01,919 Speaker 11: with the game against Texas, in the game in Atlanta, 2346 01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:05,320 Speaker 11: probably against in Alabama. So I don't love that. And 2347 01:48:05,360 --> 01:48:08,200 Speaker 11: I think the fact that you're capable of a look 2348 01:48:08,360 --> 01:48:11,040 Speaker 11: like that, like Ohio State gets knocked for not playing 2349 01:48:11,040 --> 01:48:14,080 Speaker 11: anybody quote unquote, but I'm like Ohio State looks how 2350 01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:16,000 Speaker 11: they're supposed to look with they don't play anybody like 2351 01:48:16,360 --> 01:48:19,960 Speaker 11: South Carolina is not a very good team, and AM, 2352 01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,559 Speaker 11: like you said, should have taken the doors off of 2353 01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:24,640 Speaker 11: them from the jump. So that's the first part I 2354 01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:26,920 Speaker 11: feel about this. I don't like seeing it. It's a 2355 01:48:26,920 --> 01:48:30,000 Speaker 11: bad vibe. You can't excuse it. At the exact same time, 2356 01:48:31,280 --> 01:48:32,920 Speaker 11: A and M is one of those teams to where 2357 01:48:33,240 --> 01:48:35,840 Speaker 11: when they find their flow state, you know what I'm saying, 2358 01:48:35,880 --> 01:48:38,400 Speaker 11: When they're seeing it when they're in the zone, when 2359 01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:41,000 Speaker 11: it's all clicking. I don't know if there's a team 2360 01:48:41,080 --> 01:48:43,559 Speaker 11: not named Ohio State that's beating them. So while you 2361 01:48:43,640 --> 01:48:45,439 Speaker 11: knock them for the first half, there's a part of that. 2362 01:48:45,520 --> 01:48:48,559 Speaker 11: Watching that second half, I'm like, God, le though, when 2363 01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:51,400 Speaker 11: it's when it's pretty, it's really pretty for A and M. 2364 01:48:51,479 --> 01:48:54,559 Speaker 11: So if they had lost, maybe we view that in 2365 01:48:54,640 --> 01:48:57,800 Speaker 11: a different context. But the fact they got it done 2366 01:48:57,800 --> 01:48:59,439 Speaker 11: and the fact it turned on the second half to 2367 01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:01,720 Speaker 11: it had done hard not to be a little bit 2368 01:49:01,720 --> 01:49:03,320 Speaker 11: impressed by optically, JD. 2369 01:49:03,479 --> 01:49:06,800 Speaker 4: Are you a believer in USC usc one today that 2370 01:49:06,920 --> 01:49:09,120 Speaker 4: came back from a halftime deficit. 2371 01:49:09,360 --> 01:49:12,200 Speaker 5: In the rain here in La to beat Iowa. Now 2372 01:49:12,280 --> 01:49:14,240 Speaker 5: they had the Eugene to take on Oregon. 2373 01:49:14,320 --> 01:49:19,840 Speaker 4: Obviously USC wins that game, they find themselves very much 2374 01:49:19,880 --> 01:49:22,680 Speaker 4: in the playoff picture. A loss would eliminate them from 2375 01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:27,000 Speaker 4: any playoff consideration. I ask you this because I have 2376 01:49:27,160 --> 01:49:29,559 Speaker 4: insisted almost from the get go that Lincoln Riley is 2377 01:49:29,560 --> 01:49:32,599 Speaker 4: one of the greatest frauds in the history of college 2378 01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:36,720 Speaker 4: football in terms of being a elite, elite coach. I mean, 2379 01:49:36,720 --> 01:49:39,840 Speaker 4: to me, he's like a poor man's Cliff Kingsbury better 2380 01:49:39,880 --> 01:49:42,280 Speaker 4: seated to be a quarterback coach than actually a head coach. 2381 01:49:42,280 --> 01:49:45,080 Speaker 4: He seems that he loses every close game that he's 2382 01:49:45,120 --> 01:49:48,040 Speaker 4: involved with. But what are your thoughts on USC this year, 2383 01:49:48,080 --> 01:49:51,200 Speaker 4: because obviously it has been a vast improvement over we 2384 01:49:51,240 --> 01:49:53,200 Speaker 4: saw the last couple of years. 2385 01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:56,040 Speaker 11: That's tough Flenn, right there, Steve. I mean, I'd love 2386 01:49:56,040 --> 01:49:57,400 Speaker 11: to dive into that as to why you feel that 2387 01:49:57,400 --> 01:50:01,040 Speaker 11: way about a one, mister Riley. I would say for me, 2388 01:50:01,400 --> 01:50:04,479 Speaker 11: this year for USC was always about twenty twenty six, 2389 01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:07,240 Speaker 11: which for the folks in LA listening to this are like, 2390 01:50:07,280 --> 01:50:09,000 Speaker 11: that is a loser toime. Get it that way, get 2391 01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,439 Speaker 11: that we're USC, Get that away from us. What I 2392 01:50:11,479 --> 01:50:14,439 Speaker 11: mean by that is we all saw what happened last 2393 01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:16,800 Speaker 11: year at USC, and we saw the deficiencies. We saw 2394 01:50:16,920 --> 01:50:19,760 Speaker 11: the defense look better, but we saw there was still 2395 01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:21,880 Speaker 11: issues in a lot of scrimmage. This year to me 2396 01:50:22,160 --> 01:50:25,240 Speaker 11: was a just show me the arrow is pointing up Lincoln. 2397 01:50:25,360 --> 01:50:27,760 Speaker 11: Just show me that this thing is going somewhere. Get 2398 01:50:27,840 --> 01:50:30,799 Speaker 11: us to nine wins, keep that top ranked class intact 2399 01:50:30,840 --> 01:50:33,280 Speaker 11: on the recruiting trail, and then twenty six we'll see 2400 01:50:33,280 --> 01:50:35,519 Speaker 11: what's going on. So as far as I'm started, it's 2401 01:50:35,520 --> 01:50:37,640 Speaker 11: house money for USC. I don't think there'll be a 2402 01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:40,800 Speaker 11: playoff team, but I mean, hey, when they go play 2403 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:42,280 Speaker 11: Oregon in the Eugene, if they find a way to 2404 01:50:42,400 --> 01:50:45,000 Speaker 11: look a little bit frisky, it's a weird year. I mean, 2405 01:50:45,040 --> 01:50:47,280 Speaker 11: I didn't think Alabama would lose to Oklahoma either, so 2406 01:50:48,040 --> 01:50:49,320 Speaker 11: we'll see what happens. 2407 01:50:50,000 --> 01:50:53,280 Speaker 3: I mean, last one here, Jad, thanks for joining us again. 2408 01:50:53,280 --> 01:50:57,040 Speaker 3: But Texas looks like they're about to lose to Georgia. 2409 01:50:57,160 --> 01:50:59,439 Speaker 2: There is no viable way that they. 2410 01:50:59,320 --> 01:51:01,720 Speaker 3: Can still get it to the College Football Playoff with 2411 01:51:01,800 --> 01:51:02,840 Speaker 3: three losses, is there? 2412 01:51:04,400 --> 01:51:06,160 Speaker 11: You know, it's such a funny thing right now to 2413 01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:08,760 Speaker 11: speak in absolutes in college football, because I wouldn't so 2414 01:51:08,920 --> 01:51:11,960 Speaker 11: like Befourth that I would have said absolutely. But now 2415 01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:14,759 Speaker 11: we're looking at the chaos that could 'sue. Michigan didn't 2416 01:51:14,800 --> 01:51:19,240 Speaker 11: look all that unbeatable today. I'll say this, I would 2417 01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:22,120 Speaker 11: be wildly shocked if we saw a nine to three 2418 01:51:22,160 --> 01:51:26,800 Speaker 11: team get into the College football Playoff. However, I could 2419 01:51:26,880 --> 01:51:28,320 Speaker 11: see a world where we get a lot of chaos, 2420 01:51:28,760 --> 01:51:31,960 Speaker 11: and if A and M beats Tech, if Texas beats Texas, 2421 01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:34,080 Speaker 11: A and M, the last game of the regular season, 2422 01:51:34,360 --> 01:51:36,880 Speaker 11: and that's the last data point committee has to go 2423 01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:39,920 Speaker 11: off of.
