So a 22 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 2: lot going on the college football playoffs, Tony. We're gonna 23 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: be talking about these games up until a week before 24 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: we leave for you know, First Go. 25 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get my flights set up. 26 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: First day of practice, by the way I've looked at 27 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 2: up I talked to mister Galco will be that Saturday 28 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: in Firstco, Texas, So I hope to get there on 29 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: that Friday and then write the Senior Ball so there 30 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: will be no shortage of things going on over the 31 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: next few. 32 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: Weeks, which is good. I mean, it's never boring. And 33 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 3: then you are from the Shrine the Senior prepare for 34 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 3: the Combine right in the pro days, and before you 35 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 3: know it, the draft will be here. So I mean, 36 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 3: I don't really like the playoffs being dragged until the 37 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 3: end of January. Kind of sets up problems as far 38 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 3: as which underclassmen are going to enter the draft, sets 39 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: up problems as far as combine in predictations are concerned. 40 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 3: You know, even the Shrine and the Senior Ball may 41 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 3: miss out on a few guys because that game is 42 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: so late, but it keeps us on our toes. 43 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: Yes, it does, and so why don't we start there, Tony, 44 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: This wasn't even in your list of games, but since 45 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: you brought it up and we did have an announcement, 46 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: I believe it was yesterday on Thursday from this player 47 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 2: in the very very legendary RelA Quest Bowl. Michigan defeated 48 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 2: Alabama in that game nineteen to thirteen. And the reason 49 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: I want to bring the game up is that in 50 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 2: that game, Jalen Milroe is sixteen of thirty two one 51 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 2: hundred and ninety two yards a touchdown interception. Obviously, Alabama's 52 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 2: offense had trouble getting going over the course of that game. 53 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: But he did announce that he's declaring for the NFL Draft. 54 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: He's heading in coming off a not so great game. 55 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 2: What do you see as the prospects for him? We 56 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 2: talk in late first round, early second round. Can he 57 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: move up to the middle of the first round. What 58 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 2: do you think it's gonna look like for Jalen Milroe 59 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: once we get through kind of this draft process for him, Well, I. 60 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: Think it's gonna be first round. Remember we had Jim 61 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 3: Nagion and Jim talked about Jalen Milroe going to the 62 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 3: Senior bawl. So let's see if that comes to fruition. 63 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: I think it would be important for Jalen Milroe to 64 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 3: go to the Senior Bowl and have three good days 65 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: of practice. Anybody who's watched this program knows. I mean, 66 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: I'm a guy who has been on the Jalen Milroe 67 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 3: bandwagon since last year. I love his upside, but I 68 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 3: am concerned about his inconsistency. And that's what he showed. 69 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 3: I mean, he started the season hot. You can't forget 70 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 3: that Georgia game, how great he was in the first half, 71 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 3: quiet beginning of the second half, and then that seventy 72 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: five yeard bomb to win the game. And you know, 73 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 3: as we've talked about the past couple of weeks, he's 74 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 3: beaten teams more with his legs than with his arm. 75 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: So I think from a physical standpoint, no one comes 76 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 3: close to Jaylen Minroe. When you look at the running skills, 77 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 3: when you look at the arm strength, when you look 78 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: at the whole physical package, the consistency is a concern. 79 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: But I think he's shown enough good things. And remember 80 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: when scouts look at a player, they look at what 81 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: can he do? And really, from a physical good point 82 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: of view, and he doesn't make bad decisions either. Jalen 83 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: Milroll can do at all. I don't think he gets 84 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: out of the top twenty. I think if he goes 85 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: to the senior ball and has three good days of practice, 86 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 3: he could go even earlier. 87 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, Wolf, Dwayne, and see how that goes for him. 88 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: Is you're right he didn't get into one of those 89 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 2: All Star games. And I was gonna ask you about that. 90 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: I think that could really help him. All right, Let's 91 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: go to the other couple top quarterbacks, Tony in the 92 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: bowl games they played in. 93 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Alamo Bowl. 94 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 2: Colorado just gets obliterated by BYU in that game, thirty 95 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: six to fourteen. The game didn't even fuel that close 96 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: when you watched it, and Genor Sanders, you look at 97 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: his numbers, sixteen to twenty three, two hundred and eight 98 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: yard looks efficient, two touchdowns, the two picks you don't like. 99 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: But if you watch that game, he really struggled to 100 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 2: get anything going and just a couple big Travis Hunter 101 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 2: plays is what saved that stat line. 102 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: And that was it. 103 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 3: It was those two big plays by Travis Hunter. I mean, 104 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 3: first of all, was a strange game. The Alam mobow 105 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 3: was two Big Twelve teams playing against each other, and 106 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: when does that happen? And I think from a EYU perspective, 107 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 3: you know, they were kind of sick of the fact 108 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 3: that they felt they were a better team. They had 109 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 3: a better season than Colorado, who sucked the air out 110 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: of everybody. I mean, they were on every week and 111 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 3: Byu was basically undefeated until late in the season they 112 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: lost the Kansas and they lost another game which knocked 113 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 3: him out of the College Football Playoff, the Big Twelve 114 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 3: title contention. So I think this is a bit of 115 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 3: a vendetta game. They had more going into it wanted 116 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 3: to win than Colorado and Shador Sanders, who were just basically, 117 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 3: you know, finishing out the season. And you mentioned Byu' 118 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 3: is not that great of a defense that to shut 119 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 3: him down like that. But I think it was more 120 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: a situation with Sanders may never admit it. Let's just 121 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 3: finish out the season, let's get on with the you know, 122 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: the next portion of my NFL career. 123 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the pass protection wasn't good again, he did 124 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 2: not do a great job navigating that, which is going 125 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: to be a as we talk about these quarterbacks for 126 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: the next few months. That's going to be a big, 127 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 2: big topic of the conversation in terms of how you 128 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: judge Shadoor based on the fact he played behind it 129 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 2: very shaky offensive line, and whether or not he helped 130 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: that situation or exacerbated that situation with the way he plays. 131 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: Cam Ward, on the other hand, Tony, he had quite 132 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: a nice swan song for Miami, plays only the first 133 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: half of that game, and a lot of people have 134 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 2: made a big deal about him coming out and not 135 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 2: playing in the second half. I think we've gone to 136 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,799 Speaker 2: the point now in these games. This is something Elake 137 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,679 Speaker 2: Neighbors did last year where we're not really worrying about 138 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 2: guys opting out of these Bowl games. You tell me 139 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 2: if you've gotten different feedback. But I thought cam Ward 140 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 2: was phenomenal again in the first half of that game. 141 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: Accurate in your notes, I agree, really good touch, good vision, 142 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: found the open player, accurate, showed some ability to scramble 143 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 2: and run a bit in that game. He's very slippery 144 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: in the pocket. I thought cam Ward, unlike Milrow and Sanders, 145 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 2: really went out on his college career on a very 146 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 2: high note. 147 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, and that's been the story all season right. 148 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, no one expected anything great from 149 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 3: cam Ward and he delivered week after week after week. 150 00:06:54,600 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 3: Where Shador Sanders, Jalen Milroe, Quin Viewers, Drew Allen, They've 151 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 3: all been disappointing. They've had their moments, but they've all 152 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 3: been disappointing. It's been one guy, cam Ward that has 153 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 3: carried the torch at the quarterback position this season. And 154 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,679 Speaker 3: you know, people were upsetting it played the second half. 155 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 3: It would have made a great story if he played 156 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 3: the second half and pulled Miami to a victory, but 157 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 3: evidently this was decided before the game. Like you said, 158 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 3: the touch of ability to throw a catchable pass, the 159 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 3: way he sees the field, the poise is just incredible. 160 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 3: They're just gonna have to coach some of the things 161 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 3: such as holding the ball too long out of him, 162 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 3: trying to improvise and be too cute and do too 163 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 3: much out of him, or play from the pocket. He 164 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,119 Speaker 3: can play from the pocket. But listen all the signs 165 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 3: appointing north from cam Ward. He is delivered week after 166 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 3: week after week. I mean, he is this year's version 167 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 3: of Jaden Daniels in the sense that a guy who 168 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: comes into the season viewed as a Day three, fifth 169 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: round pick by scouts, and now he's going to be 170 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 3: a top three or four selection. 171 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna look, it's I haven't watched all the tape. 172 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch Tony, but it's gonna take a lot, 173 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: I think for me to have Wards slide out of 174 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: that top overall quarterback spot with what we've seen this 175 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 2: year and combine the physical package with that. Right, like 176 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: you talked about, you're not drafting a quarterback based on 177 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: production production. You're drafting him based on what they can be. 178 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 2: And while he doesn't have an eight plus arm, he 179 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: doesn't have an eight plus athleticism, mobility, he is like 180 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 2: a B plus at all those categories, all right, Right, 181 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: his lack of arm strength doesn't hold you back. 182 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:30,679 Speaker 1: He's mobile enough. 183 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 2: His arm angles and stuff like that give him a 184 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 2: lot of arm talent. Even if it's not just arm 185 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: power and arm strength, you know, it's besides some of 186 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: the decision making and the big mistakes in spots where 187 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: he turns it over and things like that. 188 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: It's hard to poke a ton of holes in his game. 189 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 3: And it's not that he has a weak arm. His 190 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 3: arm is strong enough to play in the NFL. His 191 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 3: arm is strong enough for a vertical game, and people 192 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 3: will pick things. You know, the physical package is not 193 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 3: Jalen Milrose, but he's much more complete. He's much more 194 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: of a passer, and he's sure's heck, is much more 195 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 3: consistent than Jaln Milroe's been. 196 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, no question. All right. 197 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 2: Let's go to the next game here, and that was 198 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: the Pop Tarts Bawl, by the way, which is like 199 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: the most American experience ever. 200 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: Watching that game, they lean into the campiness. I just 201 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: love it. 202 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: It's fantastic. Let's go over to the Pinchtripe Bowl, Tony. 203 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 2: What were some of the guys that jumped out of 204 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 2: you in that game for Nebraska? 205 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 3: Okay, I mean you look in Nebraska, we talk We're 206 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 3: going to talk about a couple of tight ends. Now. 207 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 3: Thomas Faedon five receptions for fifty yards. He's the guy. 208 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 3: He hasn't announced for the draft yet. I'm surprised because 209 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 3: Matt Ruhle has told people, as told Fiddon himself either 210 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 3: transfer or into the draft because he's so good and 211 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 3: he really doesn't fit what Nebraska wants to do on offense. 212 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 3: They really don't use the tight end, but you see him, 213 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 3: he easily moves around the field. He's a terrific pass catcher. 214 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 3: He doesn't get a lot of targets, but when he does, 215 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: he looks very natural catching the ball. So keep an 216 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 3: eye on for Don if he enters the draft. As 217 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 3: of last night, I had not seen that he did. 218 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 3: I don't know if he's still going through the process. 219 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 3: He's going to be a Day three pick. Maybe somebody 220 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 3: takes a chance on late and Day two. I doubt it, 221 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 3: but he's got a lot of upside. And then again, 222 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 3: my guy Ty Robinson talked about him throughout the season, 223 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: talked about him with Jim Naggy here when he was 224 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 3: out about the Senior Bowl. Four tackles, one and a 225 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 3: half tackles for the loss, one sack, broke up of pass. 226 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: I mean, this is a guy that gets no love. 227 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 3: He's going to be a Day two pick. I doubt 228 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 3: he gets out of the late part of round three, 229 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 3: and he's going to be an exceptional player on Sunday, 230 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 3: out a variety of spots. They line him up on 231 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 3: the inside, they line him up on the outside, they 232 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 3: put him at nose tackle, and all the guy does 233 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 3: is penetrate Blana scrimmage and cos Mayhem for the opponent. 234 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: All right, let me put us in reverse a little bit, Tony. 235 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 2: I forgot to mention Damian Martinez in that Pop Tarts 236 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: Bowl for Miami. I should have. We been waiting for 237 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 2: him to kind of have that blow up game all 238 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 2: year where he plays really well. 239 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: He had it. 240 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 2: Fourteen carries, one hundred to seventy nine yards in a touchdown, 241 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 2: and he's making the case to be a Day two back. 242 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 3: I absolutely agree, and I think he's one of the 243 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 3: most underrated back because he doesn't have the great name, 244 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 3: he does have the great production. Transferred to Miami from 245 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 3: an Oregon State. Had a better season at Oregon State 246 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 3: last year because when he went to Miami, Miami had 247 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 3: some younger backs, so he's used them more as a 248 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 3: rotational back rather than as the feature ball carrier. But 249 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 3: this is one of those and we're gonna talk a 250 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 3: lot about these guys, these bigger backs who are more 251 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 3: than just road graders. They're very quick, they can create yarders, 252 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 3: they can make defenders miss, they can bounce it around 253 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 3: the corner. They've got tremendous burst of speed. That's what 254 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 3: Damian Martinez is I agree with you. I see a 255 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 3: lot of people say, you know, fourth and fifth round, 256 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 3: somebody's gonna grab Martinez in the third round and they're 257 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: gonna get one of the steals of the draft. Because 258 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 3: number one, he is incredibly skilled, he's got great size 259 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 3: and speed, and he's not coming off a year where 260 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 3: he carried the ball a tremendous amount of times. Is 261 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 3: not a lot of there's still a lot of tread 262 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 3: on the tire. It really isn't worn down after this season. 263 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 3: But again, like you said, fourteen carrigs one hundred and 264 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: seventy hour yards tells you about his breakaway ability and 265 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 3: one touchdown. 266 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, he had that big run earlier in that game 267 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: where he broke away and nobody really was able to 268 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: catch him. So night's game there by, Damian Martinez, Right, 269 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 2: let's go to these sixty eight ventures bowl Tony Arkansas 270 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: State defeating Bowling Green in that game thirty eight to 271 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 2: thirty one. But there was a bowling another tight end 272 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 2: from Bowling Green this time that drew your attention. 273 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 3: Well, he's draw on everybody's Harold Fatty. He's been one 274 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 3: of the best tight ends in the nation. Has some 275 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 3: incredible production for all pass catchers, receivers or tight ends 276 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 3: seventeen receptions, two hundred and thirteen yards. One TD just 277 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 3: announced last night that he's going to enter the draft 278 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 3: and announced what is today Friday, so an now Thursday night, 279 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 3: get my days mixed up here now Thursday night, that 280 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: he will be entering the draft. He's been a pass 281 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: catching machine for Bowling Green. Go back to the Penn 282 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 3: State game early in the year when Bowling Green hanged 283 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,719 Speaker 3: hung tough with Penn State in the early part of 284 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 3: the game. You know, he was their offense. Penn State 285 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 3: knew the ball was going to be thrown to him 286 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 3: and he couldn't stop him. He had six or seven 287 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 3: catches in that game. I think his testing is going 288 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 3: to going to be very important because as good of 289 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 3: a pass catcher he is, he doesn't play like a 290 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 3: real top athlete. So I think it's one of these 291 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 3: situations where people are projecting him as a third round prospect, 292 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 3: but I think he's more could be more of a 293 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: Day three athlete, and that's maybe where he ends up. 294 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 3: Still quality player and he is in the draft now Tony. 295 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: I have not watched him yet, so I'm gonna throw 296 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 2: a name out there and you tell me if this 297 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 2: is on or off base. The way you're describing him 298 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 2: reminds me a lot of Trey McBride when he came 299 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: out of Colorado State where he's very productive, great pass catcher, 300 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 2: but didn't test out the ballpark and I think he 301 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 2: ended up be in what a late second round pick 302 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: McBride if I remember right. 303 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 3: I think McBride's actually gonna I agree with I understand 304 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: what you're saying. McBride's a little bit faster. Ok, we'll 305 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 3: have to wait and see. We'll have to wait and see. 306 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 3: You know how Fatnon runs, But that is gonna be 307 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 3: the m on him. I think McBride is more. It's 308 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 3: also a little bit shorter. Fan is a little bit taller. 309 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 3: Mcgride was more of a tight end, h back, if 310 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 3: you will, kind of player. I think Fan is more 311 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 3: your traditional pass catching tight end who doesn't do a 312 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 3: bad job blocking. They just he's just the main cog 313 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 3: in that offense. Had more than one hundred receptions last year, 314 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 3: this year, this last past season at the Bowl in Green. 315 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 3: So why as in the block. 316 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 2: Of course, all right, we're gonna wrap up our tight 317 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 2: end portion of the episode. Apparently with the Birmingham Bowl 318 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt, Vanderbilt finishing a strong season, they 319 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: win thirty five to twenty seven. Their quarterback is coming back, 320 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 2: by the way, I think for like his eighteen season. 321 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 2: I think he's about thirty five years old. He'll be 322 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: quarterbacking again for Vanderbilt next year. And then their tight end, 323 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 2: Eli Stowers we've talked about here before. Tony another good game, 324 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: four catches, fifty five yards in a touchdown. But there 325 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 2: still seems to be some question as to whether or 326 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: not he's gonna come out right here. 327 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 3: You go, you beat me to it. You know, he's 328 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 3: listed or he was listed as a Shrine Bowl participant. 329 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 3: I'm told that the school has offered him an nil 330 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 3: deal worth about a million dollars to come back and 331 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 3: play next year. Now with the quarterback coming back and 332 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 3: the fact that they got Jerry Kill's guy I mentioned before, 333 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 3: Jerry Kill, outstanding coach at Minnesota, has had some medical problems, 334 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 3: went to New Mexico State, turned that program around, then 335 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 3: went and is a consultant Vanderbilt, and he brought a 336 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: lot of players from New New Mexico State with him 337 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 3: to Vanderbilt, Eli Stouers being one of them, and you know, 338 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 3: I think Stours is, well, do I go into the draft, 339 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 3: maybe I'm a third at latest fourth round pick and 340 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 3: then you know, you start my NFL career, or do 341 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 3: I stay at Vanderbilt one more year and collect a 342 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 3: million dollar paycheck to play play college football? Regardless, he 343 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 3: is your outstanding move tight end prospect. You know, he's 344 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 3: a lot like for Don in the sense that he 345 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 3: moves well around the field. He looks, if you will, 346 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 3: like a big receiver at the tight end position, but 347 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 3: he's like two one hundred and thirty five to two 348 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 3: hundred and forty pounds. Yeah. 349 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: I mean they're offering you a million dollars and you're 350 00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 2: going to be possibly a Day three. 351 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: It's hard to say no to that. 352 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: And I would say go join another year Vanderbilt, have 353 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: fun do in Nashville. 354 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: That'd be a good time for you. 355 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 2: All right, let's go over to the holiday boll Tony 356 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 2: Syracuse in Washington State, and it's funny. All we talked 357 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 2: about last year is how Kyle McCord was holding back 358 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 2: to the Ohio State Buckeyes. Right He shows up at 359 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 2: Syracuse this year and has a monster year, almost five 360 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 2: thousand yards passing, thirty four touchdowns, twelve picks. In this 361 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: game against Washington State, Syracuse puts up fifty two points 362 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: at Yankee Stadium. Right, sorry, I wasn't the Pitchtrip Bowl. 363 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: And in the Holiday Bowl twenty four to thirty four, 364 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: four hundred and fifty three yards and five touchdowns Kyle McCord. 365 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 2: And I was listening to Dame Bruwer the other day. He said, 366 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 2: there are NFL teams that really like Kyle McCord. Just 367 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: he's talking about a turnaround for what he did for 368 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: Ohio State last year. 369 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 3: I mean last year in Ohio State, he was the 370 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 3: guy that would not move his head off the primary target. 371 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 3: He was staring down receivers, he was giving away his targets. 372 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 3: Wasn't targeting Marvin Harrison enough. Now he goes new coaching staff, 373 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 3: is able to do different things. The touchdown to interception 374 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 3: ratio thirty four tds to twelve interceptions is Bobison. But 375 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 3: remember he threw five picks against Pittsburgh and a bad, 376 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: bad Syracuse loss, then rebound incredibly well. So he's got 377 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 3: the terrific physical skills. He's got an NFL arm. He 378 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 3: can make all the passes. The numbers at Syracuse bear 379 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 3: out that he can air it out. He's done a 380 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 3: better job moving his head around and going through progressions 381 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 3: this year and spreading the ball around that he did 382 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 3: last year at Ohio State. So he's a guy who's 383 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 3: on the Shrine Bowl roster. So really, the arrow is 384 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 3: pointing up for Kyle mccordin. Here's a guy coming into 385 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 3: the season. You thought, based off of the way he 386 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 3: played at Ohio State in twenty twenty three, maybe a 387 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 3: seventh round pick. He's absolutely moved into the middle rounds 388 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 3: of the drafts. 389 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, look for him, and he'll be a guy we're 390 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 2: keeping an eye on down at the Shrine Bowl for sure. 391 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 2: All right, Tony, Let's get to the college football playoffs here, Yes, 392 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 2: the Bowl Penn State, Boise State. Penn State kind of 393 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 2: controls this game from start to finish. I knew got 394 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 2: a lot of Penn State guys listed here. Let's start 395 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 2: with the Boise State players. However, I don't want to 396 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 2: start with Aston genty. You do not have him on 397 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 2: your list, but I think we should mention him. Had 398 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: one hundred and four rushing yards with thirty carries. He 399 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 2: had two fumbles in the game as well, and while 400 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 2: the production wasn't as gaudy as it has been all year, 401 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 2: Penn State clearly was going to do everything they can 402 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 2: to stop the running this game, and I think he 403 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 2: made the most out of what was there in the 404 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 2: run game. 405 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 3: Hit and miss. But you know, they would put eight 406 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 3: men in the box. They dared Boise State to beat them, 407 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 3: the quarterback to beat them through the air, and he 408 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 3: couldn't because the quarterbacks all over the place with the ball. 409 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 3: So I mean, I think it was kind of a 410 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 3: bit of a downer. I would have liked to see 411 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 3: him get the record, but he felt like with forty 412 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 3: five yards short. I thought those two fumbles actually hurt 413 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 3: Boise States fishally since one one was early in the game. 414 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 3: But you knew this coming into the game. You knew 415 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 3: that Penn State, who has a good defense, got a 416 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 3: good defensive front seven and some good run stuffers, was 417 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 3: gonna load the box and basically make Ashton genty beat them. 418 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 3: And despite the fact that I thought the Penn State 419 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 3: offense did everything they could, the Keith Boise State in 420 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 3: the game he could They couldn't. I mean, it was 421 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 3: just too much. He would have a couple of really 422 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 3: big runs, you know, we're eight twelve, fifteen yards, and 423 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 3: then he had a lot of two and three yard runs. 424 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 3: All it was kind of it was that sort of 425 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 3: a wide spectrum, but you knew that going in. 426 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, all right, and then you want to talk 427 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 2: about one of the Boise State defenders that we I 428 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 2: think we mentioned them in last week. Yeah, yeah, you know, 429 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: we talked about how this could be a big game 430 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 2: for him and he ended up taking advantage of the situation. 431 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, Ahman Hassani and six tackles. One sacked three tackles 432 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 3: for the loss. Beat Tyler Warren badly in the early 433 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 3: in the first half for a TfL when Boise State 434 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 3: was still in the game. Junior, I don't think he's 435 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 3: gonna come out more of a form man front defensive 436 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 3: end pass rusher, but a guy that's been really I'd 437 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 3: like him up the twenty twenty three film, and I 438 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 3: think he's shown some progress in his game throughout the year. 439 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Penn State and Drew Aller 440 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 2: three touchdowns. You like that, twelve of twenty five, one 441 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy one yards nothing, you know, overwhelming, And 442 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: while he has said he intends to go back to school, 443 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: there are some shatter that that he could change his 444 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 2: mind if he plays well enough in these final couple games. 445 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 2: And you know he thinks he's going to be a 446 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 2: first round pick a quarterback. Have you seen enough from 447 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 2: him to make teams want to move him up the boards? 448 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: Here and get into what would I would for you 449 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: at least be Jalen Milroe territory top twenty, top fifteen 450 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 2: type of pick here? 451 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: What did you think of alex performance? And what are 452 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: you hearing. 453 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 2: About whether or not he might change his mind and 454 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: end up going into the draft. 455 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 3: Well, the first question is no, I mean I could 456 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 3: he go first round? Could he go late first round? Yeah, 457 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 3: he's got the physical skills, He's got a great deep arm, 458 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 3: he makes some incredible passes at times. He had that 459 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 3: sensational true freshman season, so you know he can do it. 460 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 3: But like Jaylen Milrow and like a lot of the 461 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 3: other quarterbacks in this class, there's been a lot of inconsistency. 462 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 3: There hasn't really been a time the past year where 463 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 3: Juwel lar has put the Penn State offense on his 464 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 3: back and carried it, you know it through a big game. 465 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: Even here, we're going to talk about Kaye Tron Allen 466 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: and that was the you know, the straw that started 467 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 3: to drink in this game for the Penn State offense. 468 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 3: Is he going to answer? Could he change his mind? Listen? 469 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 3: A month ago I wrote an article on sports Gater 470 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 3: that people at Penn State were telling me he was 471 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 3: going to enter the draft. So why was cond of 472 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 3: shocked when he made the announcement as early as he 473 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 3: did that he was going back to Penn State. So 474 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 3: that idea that he was going to enter the draft 475 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 3: has been out there for the longest time. I haven't 476 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 3: heard about what he's going to do as far as 477 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 3: next level. Could he change his mind? I think he's 478 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 3: more focused on the college football players, and why not 479 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,479 Speaker 3: because it looks like Penn State's going to be playing 480 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 3: for a national title. But it wouldn't surprise me based 481 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 3: on what I wrote back in early November that people 482 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 3: in the Penn State program were telling me that he 483 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 3: was going to enter the draft. 484 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we'll have to see what he ends up doing. Otherwise, 485 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 2: for Penn State. What'd you see that impressed you? 486 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 3: I mean Kate tron Allen seventeen rushes one hundred and 487 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 3: thirty four yards. He's not fast, but he's big, he's powerful. 488 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 3: Go back to Damian Martinez. You know we're going to 489 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 3: talk about Camp Scatterborough in a little while. I mean, 490 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 3: these bigger backs are sort of now more in vogue 491 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: because they're not just put your head down and run 492 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 3: in the middle of the pile and push the pile. 493 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 3: They can create their quick They've got good speed, and 494 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 3: I think k tron Allen fits that mold, which is 495 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 3: why he's a middle round pick. I think defensively, when 496 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 3: you looked at Penn State, Danny, Dennis Sutton, who I 497 00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 3: mentioned a week ago against SMU, Kobe King, the middle linebackers. 498 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 3: You Onlee read the safety. You know we talked about 499 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 3: shutting down Ashton Genty. Those three guys had good games 500 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 3: and they were part and parcel or main factor and 501 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: shutting down Ashton Genty and Dennis Sutton continues to show 502 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 3: himself to be a real good pass rusher right now. 503 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 3: I think all these guys are Day three prospects, but 504 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 3: they are legitimate NFL talent. 505 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 2: The other game in that bracket, the Sugar Bowl Georgia 506 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 2: and Notre Dame. 507 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: That game got delayed. One of the reasons why we 508 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: waited till Friday. The record this week because of the 509 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: terrorist attack down there in New Orleans. Just terrible. 510 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 2: It was played at four o'clock on Thursday afternoon, and 511 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 2: this was exactly the type of game I think we 512 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 2: thought it was gonna be. You know, Carson Beck, we 513 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 2: talked about that. He's just done the girl elbow surgery. 514 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 2: Tony with his UCL so who knows when he's gonna 515 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 2: be able to throw football again. 516 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: We could talk about that if you want to. 517 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 2: But Riley Leonard just ninety passing yards in the game, 518 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: eighty rushing yards, but just a series of events from 519 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 2: the very end of the second quarter to the start 520 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: of the third quarter with a takeaway, a field goal, 521 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 2: a touchdown, and then a kick return for a touchdown 522 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 2: kind of swung. 523 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:07,880 Speaker 1: The game to Notre Dame. 524 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 2: And early Trevor at and fumble deep in Notre Dame 525 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 2: territory was big for Georgia, and Notre Dame ends up 526 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 2: controlling the game. They beat Georgia twenty three to ten. 527 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 3: I didn't think the game was gonna turn out like that. 528 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 3: I mean I thought going into it, you know, with 529 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 3: with Notre Dame losing Riley Mills and you know that 530 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 3: you looked at that Georgia defense against the Notre Dame offense, 531 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 3: I didn't think really Notre Dame had much of a chance. 532 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 3: But it was a David against Goliath. 533 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 2: And well, I said Tony, I just made it kind 534 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 2: of like the amount of points scored. 535 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: I didn't expect it to be some super high scoring game. 536 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 3: I understanding. Yeah, but I think from a scouting point 537 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 3: of view, you can take more out of it from 538 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 3: what Georgia didn't do versus what Notre Game did. I 539 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 3: mean Notrere game players. They were solid. Some of the 540 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 3: guys came up with big plays. You saw that that 541 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 3: great sack by romanovin. Their safety continues to play well. 542 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 3: R j Oben, I'm sorry, I'm roman There you go. 543 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 3: Joben had a great sack. 544 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you know Howard Cross played well I thought 545 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: in the. 546 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 3: Game until until he had he had cramp Lake in 547 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 3: the game. They're safety continues to play well. Riley Leonard 548 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 3: didn't react well with pressure, But I mean they were 549 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 3: breathing down his neck, but he didn't turn the ball 550 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 3: over and he won the game. From a Georgia perspective, 551 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 3: I think the Georgia offensive line continues to play poorly, 552 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 3: and they're a talented group that should not be that bad. 553 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 3: Jayalen Walker, I mean, I was impressed with Jalen Walker 554 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 3: because he seems to be getting better. He is just 555 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 3: a powerful guy. You saw him just obliterate some of 556 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 3: those blocks that from the Notre Dame offensive lineman to 557 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 3: penetrate the line of scrimmage and get pressure and force 558 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 3: Riley Leonard to move around. You know. But in the 559 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 3: Zier stack house, he has a good play and then 560 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 3: he disappears for long stretches. Then he has a good play, 561 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,360 Speaker 3: he disappears for long stretches. The Georgia receivers make good 562 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 3: plays and then they drop passes that are basically placed 563 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 3: in their hands. So I think from a scouting perspective, 564 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 3: I came away with it more from the Georgia players, 565 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 3: and a lot of it was more negative than it 566 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 3: was positive. 567 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 2: All right, now we have Penn State and Notre Dame Tony, 568 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 2: they're gonna take place. That's the Orange Bowl semi final. 569 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 2: Matchup next week. An old school Northeast you know, run 570 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 2: the ball type of game between these two teams that 571 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 2: are linked back when you know, Penn State went into 572 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 2: the Big Ten for the first time and no Dame 573 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 2: was supposed to they didn't, so a lot of links 574 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 2: between these two schools. Really an old school match up here. Well, 575 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: who are some of the guys you're gonna be keeping 576 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 2: an eye on? 577 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 3: And not a great scouting matchup, you know, but not 578 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 3: a great game for NFL draft fans. And I looked 579 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 3: at my board and there were four players Abdull Carter, 580 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 3: Benjamin Morrison. Note you, Dame, Tyler Warren, Penn State, drew 581 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 3: a lar Penn State that projects either first or second 582 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 3: round choices, and Benjamin Morrison is in the game. He 583 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 3: hasn't played since the beginning of the season because of 584 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 3: a hip injury, but there's still some matchups to watch. Obviously, 585 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 3: he talked about Drew Lawer, does he change his name? 586 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 3: Xavier Watch has played very well. He's played very well 587 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 3: in the playoffs. He was good all season. Not a 588 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 3: not a big rangey safety, but a smart, instinctive guy 589 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 3: that knows how to make plays on the ball. And 590 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 3: you know that watch is gonna be keen on a 591 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 3: law trying to goat him into a mistake. Riley Leonard 592 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 3: against a dual carter, I mean Riley Leonard did not 593 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 3: react well to the pressure yesterday against Georgia. Now he 594 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 3: goes against a dual carter who's better than Jalen Walker. 595 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 3: I think the Georgia front four and pass rush on 596 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 3: a whole is better than what Penn State puts on 597 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 3: the field, which is not bad. It's just that George 598 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 3: is so good. But again, you know it's gonna come 599 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 3: down to or the guy the keyon obviously is gonna 600 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 3: be a dual carter who's going to be a top 601 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 3: four pick. And then that Notre Dame defensive line trying 602 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 3: to stop Nick Singleton and Kate Tron. Allen's sort of 603 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 3: like your thunder and lightning. Allen is your bigger pounder, 604 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 3: although he's fast and is quick that can run over you. Well, 605 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 3: Nick Singleton is the smaller, sleeker running back that create 606 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 3: can create yardage and you know, a smaller notes You 607 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 3: Dame defensive line who did a good job yesterday, you know, 608 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 3: running stunts and a lot of games to kind of 609 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 3: keep those big body. The Georgia offensive linemen off of 610 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 3: them at hit work. They're gonna have to come up 611 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 3: with another game plan to stop this. The Penn State 612 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 3: running game, which is better than Georgia's running game because 613 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 3: at And has really he's been injured for Georgia, but 614 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 3: it's really been a disappointment for most of the year, 615 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 3: including yesterday. 616 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the other side of the 617 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 2: bracket and the Peace Bowl. Arizona State makes a run 618 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 2: of it. They were down two scores at halftime, but 619 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: they come back overtime full just short against Texas thirty 620 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 2: nine to thirty one. Had Texas what was on a 621 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 2: fourth and twelve in the second overtime and they end 622 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: up throwing the touchdown pass. They give themselves the lead. 623 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: They get the two point conversion. Real tough game by 624 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 2: Arizona State and they do it behind Cam Skataboo. They're 625 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: a big running back thirty rushes one hundred and forty 626 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: three yards, eight catches for ninety nine yards. 627 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: He completed a pass as as a. 628 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 2: Running back option throw boy Tony. This guy is really 629 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: impressive as a player. I'm curious what kind of feedback 630 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 2: you're getting over him as a teammate in the guy 631 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 2: because he seems like a bit of a. 632 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: Out there type of fella. 633 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 2: But just a very impressive performance against a very good 634 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 2: Texas team. 635 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, beat Texas. Running the ball, throwing the ball, catching 636 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 3: the ball. I'm told he even made a nice spaghetti 637 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 3: dinner for his teammates after the game. But does it 638 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 3: all We're gonna see him at the senior ball. I mean, 639 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 3: I think the thing is, you know, he was hurting 640 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 3: at the end of the game. He was obviously dehydrated. 641 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 3: He was vomiting on the side of the field, on 642 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 3: the sidelines. He would have to drag himself onto the field. 643 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 3: When he got tackled, he would have to drag himself 644 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 3: up off the ground. And I watched the game, and 645 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 3: I was concerned, if they give this guy the ball again, 646 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 3: he's gonna fumble it. I mean, he's just physically he's 647 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 3: not there. He produced, he scored that touchdown in overtime, 648 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 3: then he scored the two point conversion, and I mean 649 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 3: you could see, you know how how you know how 650 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 3: obliterated he was, both physically and mentally. After they lost 651 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 3: the game, and the teammates coming up to him and 652 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 3: you're trying to console him because I mean, you talk 653 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 3: about leaving everything on the field. That's exactly what he 654 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 3: did and produced in every way possible. You know, the 655 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 3: teammates like him. Remember he's only played at Arizona State 656 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 3: one year because he transferred over from Sacramento State, and 657 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 3: he was highly thought of by NFL scouts, highly thought 658 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 3: of being he was a mid day three pick, and 659 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 3: he's absolutely helped himself again, a bigger back who can 660 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 3: run over defenders as he likes to do, but also 661 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 3: has enough quickness to create yardage and move around piles 662 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: or make defenders. 663 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: Miss four six. 664 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 3: You think, you know he's gonna time for six, but 665 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 3: he plays a lot faster. You know, he's got slow 666 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 3: forty speed, or he doesn't have great forty speed, but 667 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 3: he's got outstanding football speed, and he's got a football mind. 668 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 3: Never mind the fact that you know, besides the ball carrying, 669 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 3: he's also a good pass catcher. 670 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 2: So someone here Tony said this to me. The other 671 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: said this would be yesterday, and I can't get it 672 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 2: out of my brain. Doesn't he just feel like a 673 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh running back to the Chargers. To you, that's 674 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: what he feels like someone said that to me, and 675 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: now I just cannot get that match out of my head. 676 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean makes sense. Jim Harbrough likes the defensive 677 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 3: lineman on the offensive line, but yeah, makes sense. I 678 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 3: mean I go back to he himself has compared himself 679 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 3: to Mike Alstart. I remember Brian Leonard who played for Rutgers. 680 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 3: I remember Brian Leonard interviewing me at the Senior Bowl 681 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 3: and he blood all over the place and he just 682 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: wanted to get back out there. But Oliver is jersey 683 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 3: over his pants and he just wanted to get it 684 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 3: back out there to play. He's definitely helped himself and 685 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 3: he's played great football. I mean he's played great. He 686 00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 3: has been the passing game at Arizona Dad has been 687 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 3: hit or miss although their top receiver was on the sidelines, 688 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 3: which hurt him, and scatter Boat literally picked up the 689 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 3: ball and carried that team. 690 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think their young quarterback too, is someone 691 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 2: to keep an eye on here next couple of years, Tony, 692 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 2: he played well. Rachel freshman not draft eligible, with someone 693 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: to keep an eye on moving forward. Here a couple 694 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 2: guys up front for Texas defense that you liked. 695 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 3: In the game, Vernon brought and I thought played very well. 696 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 3: Had four tackles, penetrated the off of the line of 697 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:30,719 Speaker 3: scrimmage A lot Trey Moore were spoken about continuously, especially 698 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 3: the past couple of weeks. Five tackles, two sacks, two 699 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 3: and a half tackles for lost good pass rusher transfer 700 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 3: from UTSA, Tennessee, San Antonio. I'm told he's very likely 701 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 3: to enter the draft. You know, quin you Weers twenty 702 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 3: for thirty three d and twenty two yards, three tds, 703 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 3: one interception, but again, a lot of inconsistency. He was 704 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 3: great on that first drive and you're like, okay, here 705 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 3: we go, Texas just going to blow him out of 706 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 3: the wallmount of stadium. And then literally for the next 707 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 3: three and a half quarters, he was inconsistent. At times, 708 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 3: he was bad, and then he comes back on that 709 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 3: last draft to tie the game, and then he was 710 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 3: terrific during overtime. So we got from Quinn Ewers what 711 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 3: we've gotten from him the past two years. A lot 712 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 3: of inconsistency, some wow moments and then some you know, 713 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 3: what is he doing moments. I think the Texas ol line, 714 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 3: which was injured, did not play well. Cam Williams is 715 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 3: out was out with the right knee injury. Though Kelvin 716 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 3: Banks didn't play that well. They give up nine tackles 717 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 3: for loss and three sacks against the very nice, but 718 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 3: not dominant Arizona State defense, and that is something to 719 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 3: watch moving forward. 720 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 2: All right, then let's go to the Rose Bowl and 721 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 2: a game that I thought everyone was really looking forward to. 722 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: I was too. 723 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: I thought it was gonna be a fantastic game, and 724 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 2: Ohio State just ends up rolling over Oregon. 725 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: It was they looked out match and outclassed. 726 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 2: And I want to leave the Ohio State offense to 727 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 2: the side for a second, because I think we're not 728 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 2: surprised with all the talent they have on that offense, 729 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 2: with the receivers and the running backs and all that. 730 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 2: But this Ohio State defense, I thought Tony did an 731 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 2: unbelievable job. Oregan's been able to run a well oiled 732 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 2: machine on that side of the ball all year, running 733 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 2: the football doing Gabriel has had a really good year. 734 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 2: And that Ohio State defense. We've talked about all the 735 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 2: draft eligible guys and the guys that went back from 736 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 2: last year to this year to kind of try to 737 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 2: come back to beat Michigan, which they couldn't. 738 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,760 Speaker 1: But now all of a sudden, they dominate Oregon, who. 739 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 2: Could not do a thing offensively in the entire first half, 740 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 2: and the final score is forty one to twenty one. 741 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 2: Ohio State could have scored sixty in this game if 742 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 2: they wanted to. 743 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 3: And the thing is Ohio, like they did against Tennessee, 744 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 3: beat him from a word go. I mean, it wasn't 745 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 3: even close early on, and now Oregon had to play 746 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 3: catch up. And I think that, you know, just from 747 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 3: a conversation point of view, this is why a lot 748 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 3: of people are very angry at Ryan Day, because the 749 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: Ohio State team that we've seen the past two weeks 750 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 3: is the one that we should have seen all season long. 751 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 3: They shouldn't have struggled again Nebraska. They should have beat 752 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 3: Oregon the first time around. They shouldn't have lost to Michigan. 753 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 3: Maybe not lost to Michigan obviously was a wake up call. 754 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 3: Excuse me, a battle a little bit of a cold here, 755 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 3: But that's why people are upset about with Ryan Day. 756 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 3: But again, you mentioned the defense. You know, Cody Simon 757 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 3: is a guy that we don't talk about because of 758 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 3: the star talent around him. Eleven tackles, three tackles for lost, 759 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 3: two sacks, and a pants breakup on a big third 760 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 3: down play. And he's been like that all season long. 761 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 3: And Cody Simon is the guy who I think is come. 762 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 3: In the lead up to the draft, you're gonna hear 763 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 3: about him. He's not gonna be mentioned. Then all of 764 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 3: a sudden, people are talking about him at Day three, 765 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 3: mid Day three, What surprise me? If Cody Simon who 766 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 3: when you watch the film. He's smart, he's instinctive, he 767 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 3: doesn't have mental lapses. But he's also six two and 768 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 3: a half two hundred and thirty two hundred thirty five 769 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 3: pounds and runs a four to six and makes plays 770 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 3: all over the field. Could end up as a Day 771 00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 3: two pick. We talked about early on about how the 772 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 3: college playoffs would allow for a player to really shoot 773 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 3: up draft boards or really improve his draft stock, and 774 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,919 Speaker 3: we did it talking about the quarterbacks. If there's one 775 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 3: player I think has helped his draft stock more than 776 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 3: any other during these first two rounds of the playoffs, 777 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 3: it would be Tyleek Williams of Ohio State. Yeah, he 778 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 3: only had three tackles against Oregon, but his ability to 779 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:30,320 Speaker 3: penetrate the line of scrimmage, the ability to basically command 780 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 3: double team blocks has consistently presented opportunities for the T. JT. 781 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 3: Tatum Alois and the Jack Sawyers of Ohio State. He's 782 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,720 Speaker 3: creating a lot of opportunities for his teams. He's creating 783 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 3: a lot of habits. And I think that right now 784 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 3: you're looking at four defensive tackles in the first round. TYLERK. 785 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 3: Williams is definitely in that conversation. He could be the fourth, 786 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 3: he could be the third. But I think that he 787 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 3: has probably helped himself, has improved this draft stock more 788 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 3: than any other player during this college football players because 789 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: of his play. The stacks aren't great, but when you 790 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 3: watch the film is constantly reathing havoc the Ohio State 791 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 3: secondary again, Denzel Burke, Davidson, Bigness, Own Ransom, Latham, Ransom, 792 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 3: Jordan Hancock again. Guys who were victimized, especially the cornerbacks, 793 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 3: had a real good game for the second week in 794 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 3: a row. No lapsis, no big play breakdowns. This is 795 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 3: what we expected from them throughout the season. We're getting 796 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 3: it now. Jack Sawyer and JT. Toomlowell combined for four 797 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 3: sacks five tackles for loss against Josh Connelly and Johnny Cornelius. 798 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 3: Both of those guys are going to be drafted, Connor 799 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 3: in the top forty five, Cornelius a Day three pick, 800 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 3: and they just ate him alive. And you know, you 801 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 3: don't want to talk about the offense. I agree, But again, 802 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 3: Trayvon Henderson eight rushes, ninety four yards and two tds. 803 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 3: In my opinion, you know, just a guy who's gonna 804 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 3: go later than he should and if he stays healthy, 805 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 3: it's gonna be very productive running back on Sunday. 806 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I just wanted to start the defense. I mean, 807 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: the offense was going. Do you know. 808 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 2: Henderson's that big play guy, right, he has that speed 809 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 2: to get the perimeter and make those big plays. He 810 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 2: had that big sixty yard touchdown run in this game. 811 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 2: And then the Meca book Again, I thought played well, Tony. 812 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 2: I thought he did a good job a wide receiver. 813 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 2: We know about Jeremiah Smith you know, unfortunately we can't 814 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,840 Speaker 2: talk about him in the draft for another couple of years. Still, 815 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: he was fantastic. And then I know, you want to 816 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 2: talk about those guys. And then a couple of Oregon 817 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 2: defenders as well. 818 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Derek Harmon was very good. He was 819 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 3: tough to stop, he had a couple of tackles for loss, 820 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 3: and he was penetrating the offensive line. But I think 821 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:43,839 Speaker 3: as a whole, the banged up, really realigned offensive line 822 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 3: for a house state did well. You know, Jordan Birch, 823 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 3: the big pass rusher. We got what we saw, but 824 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 3: what we expected from Jordan Burch, or at least what 825 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 3: we've gotten, I shouldn't say what we expected what we've 826 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 3: gotten for him for much of the past two years. 827 00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 3: Early On has a big pressure tackle for loss, forces 828 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 3: the action on a third down play, and then he disappears. 829 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 3: And that's the problem with Jordan Burch. That's what the 830 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 3: scouts and the teams are gonna have to decide. Are 831 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 3: we gonna take Jordan Birch very early because of these 832 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 3: flash plays, because of the potential that he shows, or 833 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 3: are we going to downgrade it because while he makes 834 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 3: these flash plays, he disappears for stretches and games on end. 835 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 3: Granted he's had a lot of injury, but there's never 836 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 3: been that production. There's never been that meeting of expectation 837 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 3: of Jordan Birch, whether it was early in the South 838 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 3: Carolina career or at Oregon. And that's what we saw 839 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:37,479 Speaker 3: on the Rose bull against Ohio State. 840 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 2: And then you mentioned now Notre Dame and Penn State 841 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: maybe not the best scouting matchup. Well, here's the opposite 842 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 2: of that spectrum of Tony because Texas and Ohio State. 843 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:50,720 Speaker 1: Just looking at the notes you gave me, we're. 844 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: Looking at five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten guys for 845 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,439 Speaker 2: you that at first or second round grades. Another half 846 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 2: doesen't that of third or fourth round grades. A lot 847 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 2: of future pro are going to be taking on each 848 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:02,319 Speaker 2: other in that Cotton Bowl. 849 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a big time scouting game for the 850 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 3: NFL Draft. This is some a game that a lot 851 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 3: of people are going to be focused on. I've got 852 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,760 Speaker 3: sixteen players with top potential, top one hundred grade. Sixteen 853 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,800 Speaker 3: players are going to be first, second, or third round picks, 854 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 3: and there are a lot of great matchups from a 855 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 3: game point of view. You know, you look at Ohio State, 856 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,760 Speaker 3: who seems to be hitting their stride at the right time, 857 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 3: and Texas, who seems to be struggling to cross the 858 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 3: finish line. And I think if it's if it's like 859 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 3: that going into the game, we could see another Ohio 860 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 3: State blowout, especially if Texas plays the way they did 861 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 3: against the Arizona State. But again, you know, you start 862 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 3: with the Texas offensive line against the Ohio State defensive libe. 863 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 3: You know, is Cameron Williams who has that right king 864 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 3: is he gonna be able to come back at right 865 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 3: tackle and play effectively? How is Calvin Banks at one 866 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 3: hundred percent? And is he also going to be able 867 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,840 Speaker 3: to play effectively? Those guys against two and Mayola and 868 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,520 Speaker 3: Jack Sawyer who've been whites out the past couple of 869 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 3: weeks in the playoffs, It's gonna be a tough task 870 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 3: for those players. Even on the inside Hayden Connor and 871 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 3: Jake Majors both their Day three picks against Tyleek Williams. 872 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 3: They better be on their game. And then you flip 873 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 3: it around, or I'm sorry, you don't even flip it around. 874 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 3: You you go to the queen Ewers versus the Ohio 875 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 3: State secondary, which I as I just mentioned, has played 876 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,320 Speaker 3: very well the past two weeks. They haven't had the 877 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 3: mental breakdowns and quin Ewers with the inconsistency quin Ewers 878 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,439 Speaker 3: can't play the way he did against Averzon the State 879 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 3: because this is not only from a point of view 880 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,280 Speaker 3: of a game incredibly important, but now he's playing against 881 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 3: a lot of talent or players that are as talented 882 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 3: as he's going to be playing against Sunday, and this 883 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 3: is gonna be a big measuring stick as far as 884 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 3: NFL scouts are concerned. 885 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 2: And then flipping around, how about the other matchup but 886 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 2: defense against Ohio State's offense. 887 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Trey Moore who I mentioned, Baron Sowell, who've talked 888 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 3: about before, Ethan Burke who we talked about last week. 889 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 3: You know, can they exploit that Ohio State defensive line 890 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 3: that will two starters? You now have Donovan Jackson as 891 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,399 Speaker 3: we've seen the former guard playing left tackle. No one's 892 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 3: been able to do it during the college football playoffs. 893 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 3: Really mean, I mean, they basically did a good job 894 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:17,760 Speaker 3: against overall against Oregon. The Texas defensive line, the players 895 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 3: that they line up in the front floor may not 896 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,319 Speaker 3: have the top talent or the top end talent that 897 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 3: Oregon has, but I think as a whole there are 898 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 3: more talented unit and they can rotake some guys in. 899 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 3: So this is gonna be another big challenge for Ohio 900 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,280 Speaker 3: State offensive line. And I think even though he's played 901 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,720 Speaker 3: well at Donovan Jackson, even though he's played well left tackle, 902 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 3: Donovan Jackson has helped his draft stock at guard because 903 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 3: he's not gonna play left tackle in the NFL. But 904 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 3: he did a good job at guard before being pushed 905 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 3: out to left tackle, and he's done a real good 906 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 3: job there filling in for Josh Simmons. So I think 907 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 3: that's major for him, be another big challenge. And then 908 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 3: you know John Day Bantry versus a Jeremiah Smith and 909 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 3: a Mecca Buca. Obviously John Day Barrett can't do it himself, 910 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 3: but that's gonna be a big matchup. You know, you 911 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 3: know Jeremiah Smith, he likes to talk a lot, is 912 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 3: very confident. He's said before the game, Oregon can't cover 913 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 3: me man demand and they couldn't. John Day Baron's a 914 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 3: guy who's got great ball skills. He's got I don't 915 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 3: want to say his cocky. He's very confident. He's helped 916 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 3: this draft stock this year. Whether he's lined up against Smith, 917 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 3: whether he's lined up against Abuca, it's going to be 918 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 3: a big time matchup which NFL scouts are going to 919 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 3: keep an eye on. 920 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,359 Speaker 2: I think we're gonna get in Ohio State Penn State 921 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 2: National chambiship game. 922 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:36,319 Speaker 1: What do you think? 923 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 3: I agree we're gonna have two Big ten teams playing 924 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 3: for the national title, and which is kind of which 925 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 3: is kind of interesting because everyone talks about how great 926 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 3: the SEC is, which it is, but I think they're 927 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 3: gonna be left out of Nicole the Cup of January twentieth. 928 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 2: And you know, all we talked about all year is 929 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 2: this can Ryan Day get over the top against Michigan. 930 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 2: They fouled, well, go Glasgow, Penn State fan all they 931 00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 2: want to know if James Franklin can get over the 932 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: top against Ohio So we might get a chance to 933 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 2: find that one out too. 934 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 3: Yep. And I mean it's good. It's gonna be an 935 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 3: interesting matchup because the first time Ohio State went into 936 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 3: Weddn State College and beat Penn State by seven points. 937 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 3: So the pressure is gonna be up both coaches. 938 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, no question in those two games. Very wise by 939 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: college football. 940 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if they scheduled this with the NFL 941 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 2: on purpose, but they're staying away from the NFL playoff 942 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,359 Speaker 2: matchups which will be next not this, So this will 943 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,240 Speaker 2: be the second weekend in January, right Saturday, Sunday and Monday. 944 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 2: That's the NFL playoffs. The college football playoffs will be 945 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 2: Thursday night and Friday night. So we'll could be back 946 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 2: with you on draft season early next week, probably Tuesday, 947 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 2: that's gonna be our interview with Eric Galka, who runs 948 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 2: the Shrine game. And then the following Monday, I'm guessing Tony, 949 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 2: we'll probably try to get on review the college football 950 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 2: playoffs and we should then at some point have some 951 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 2: more declarations in terms of who's coming out in the draft. 952 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 2: So all if more news for you then can't wait. 953 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 2: It should be a lot of fun. 954 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's gonna get good, it's gonna get crazy, is 955 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 3: gonna get busy. 956 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 2: No problem, Tony. Happy New Year, my friend. Always a pleasure. 957 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,479 Speaker 2: And you can find more of Tony's work on sports Kidding. 958 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 2: You got mock draft anything coming out that people should 959 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 2: keep an eye on. 960 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, we've I've actually been tasked with doing team by 961 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 3: team mock drafts, so we've done it by division. We've 962 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 3: gone I go five round deeps five rounds deep every team. 963 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 3: I believe the NFC East went up yesterday, so Giant 964 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 3: fans may want to check that one out. Five rounds deep. 965 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,720 Speaker 1: Guys one or two players he gave to the Giants 966 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: in that it was. 967 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 3: Very offensive in the first and second round. So guys 968 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:40,600 Speaker 3: who handled the ball, so. 969 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:42,399 Speaker 1: You know they're a quarterback in there. 970 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 3: There absolutely is. Now. Granted this was when the Giants 971 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 3: had the first you know, you got to try and 972 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 3: keep up. But this was submitted before the Giants had 973 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 3: their okawhelming victory on the Indianapolis Cults. But I still 974 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 3: think the Giants the way chicks out will come out 975 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 3: with the quarterback. So, yes, one was a quarterback at 976 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 3: the other one was the guy who was a player 977 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 3: that carries the ball. Uh, we're focused on helping the offense. 978 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 2: All right, good stuff. Check that out on sports Key 979 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:10,479 Speaker 2: to Tony.
