1
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: We've got a crisis on our hand. Crisis, and I

2
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: mean in every sense of the word.

3
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure.

4
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: I took Kailand all PM before the show.

5
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,319
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna put it out there. We are live

6
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 2: as live can be.

7
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: I've never fallen asleep on here, and I don't intend

8
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: to today. What I'm saying is, I'm just gonna go

9
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: ahead and pop the top on the ZVA.

10
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 2: Here.

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: It is sugarless, but I really really wish we had

12
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: this thing loaded with caffeine today.

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 2: We do not.

14
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: Black Cherry is back for us. I'm gonna try and

15
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: be here for us. Just let's all try and get

16
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: through this together. We're jam packed, we're high the top

17
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,639
Speaker 1: still a kind of sunny downtown Nashville, Tennessee because it's

18
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: the middle of the day because we've got to fly

19
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: down to Louisiana later tonight. But not before we talk

20
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: about some good old fashioned week eleven upset alerts. Jesse

21
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: wanted to talk about eight games today. We whittled it

22
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: down to six, but honestly, it could be a fairly

23
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: chaotic weekend coming up. Florida is retaining Billy Napier, so

24
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: we're not gonna have to wait until the end of

25
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,199
Speaker 1: the year. We can just go ahead and remove Billy

26
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: Napier from the hot seat conversation. We're removing a lot

27
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: of guys, as it seems from that conversation, because they

28
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: have announced today they're going to retain him.

29
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 2: I've got several thoughts on that. I'm gonna lead the

30
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 2: show with it.

31
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: I've got some thoughts as well on the recently invented

32
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: college football playoff bubble. We have that that's a thing

33
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: we do in this sport. Now, Cole Kublick's going to

34
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: join the show, We're gonna talk about a number of things.

35
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 2: It is a very sneaky week in college football.

36
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff that's not on, Like the

37
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 1: main event radar for the rest of the way is

38
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: going to happen this week that impacts the main event radar.

39
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: If you will, they're watching us in Reno, Nevada, Tupelow, Mississippi, Rockford, Illinois,

40
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: we DOWI, Alabama, and I encourage you strongly to make

41
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: sure you're following on Instagram at late Kick Josh, because

42
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: I've got a lot coming up for you this weekend.

43
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: Do you understand people that we will be on the

44
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: sidelines in Death Valley at night with Alabama in town.

45
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 1: That's where we're going to be Saturday night. We will

46
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: do Friday night lines Friday night from Baton Rouge. So

47
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: there are a lot of reasons to be following on

48
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: the old gram. Okay, Florida has announced that they will

49
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: retain Billy Napier. The university itself released a statement earlier today.

50
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: Scott Strickland, the athletic director there, released a statement earlier today.

51
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: First thoughts, I'm surprised, and this is the September version

52
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: of me talking to you right now. I'm surprised. A

53
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: lot of folks, myself included, gave this a little chance

54
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: of happening. A couple of months ago. Team looked dead

55
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: in the water. They came out of the gate very slow.

56
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 1: We were at the Miami game. It was very toxic feeling.

57
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: Most of you still remember that. It was just a

58
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: few months ago. It was very toxic feeling. We expected

59
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 1: that to be a back and forth affair.

60
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 2: It wasn't.

61
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: Florida got drowned and it was over at the half,

62
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: and that meant that a lot of the confidence that

63
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: had been built up was eroded away. Immediately, and I'll

64
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: never forget how just toxic and negative it felt in

65
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: that stadium. You remember the scene. We all remember the scene.

66
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: Some of us were there. And so then A and

67
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: M comes in there a couple of weeks later, and

68
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: it's that all over again. And so two really ugly

69
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: scenes in the swamp, and everyone had sold their stock

70
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: on Billy Napier. And I can tell you a lot

71
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: of folks expected the team to quit. There were a

72
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: lot of rumors, let's just call it like it is.

73
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: A lot of it was true dissension within that coaching staff.

74
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: Folks just not see an eye to eye. I don't

75
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: need to get into the particulars. It's not hard for

76
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: you to imagine that that was happening, and that happens

77
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: on some successful staffs when teams are going undefeated. So yes, absolutely,

78
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: that sort of infighting happens when things aren't going well.

79
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: You just hope it stays in And for the most part,

80
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: I think they kept it bottled up down there, but

81
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: hadn't been pretty.

82
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: Has not been pretty.

83
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: Every step of the way, necessarily, And so you throw

84
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: all that in a blender and you come out of

85
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: week three one and two already, and you know that you've.

86
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: Still got all this left to go.

87
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: And it was a fair assumption that Billy Napier was done.

88
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: A lot of the big money folks down there would

89
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: tell you that because they told me that. A lot

90
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: of people in the agency world expected that job to

91
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: come open because they told me that. But here was

92
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: the problem. BILLI Napier didn't get fired, and he kept

93
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 1: on working and his team never never quit on him.

94
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: And they've played some of their best ball. That doesn't

95
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: mean they've won every step of the way, but they

96
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: played their best ball. Most recently, they fought Georgia. They

97
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: went up there and fought Tennessee. It's something to be

98
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: proud of. Now, I'm going to give you enough pat

99
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 1: on the back that you deserve for that. But merely

100
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: being bought in is such an overton windows way to

101
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: view this. So as much as you deserve credit for

102
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: keeping your team bought in, that's the minimum baseline of

103
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: what you have to do as a head coach of

104
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: a major program. Kirby's got his guys bought in. Debor

105
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 1: and Brian Kelly have their guys bought in. Everybody who

106
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: matters has their guys bought in, So you don't get

107
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: a sticker. You get a sticker if you're coaching on

108
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: a volunteer basis and you keep your team bought in.

109
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: If you're getting paid what Billy Napier is getting paid,

110
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: they expect a lot more.

111
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 2: So.

112
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: That's the Florida fans view of this, as I've noticed today.

113
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: I granted I probably saw the most negative opinions, but

114
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 1: it seems like it was ninety to ten negative in

115
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: terms of how the Florida fan base received this. They're

116
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: not happy about it. They're not thrilled with it. It's

117
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: your program. You got every right to feel that way,

118
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 1: you know.

119
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.

120
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,799
Speaker 1: I say the same stuff every time when a coach

121
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 1: is retained, you know me. My take on this is

122
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: always calling for someone's job is the absolute last resort.

123
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: I hardly ever do it. I don't like it.

124
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: I don't like those kinds of segments. We could do

125
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: them a lot, and they generate a ton of traffic

126
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 1: for us. I just hate them, so we don't do them.

127
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: I went down there in spring, we had Napier on

128
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: the show. He opened the full program to us. He

129
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: gave us pretty unprecedented access. I appreciated it. I still do,

130
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: and I will stand by a vast majority of what

131
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 1: I said when I went down there.

132
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: I think Nap he's a great dude. I think he

133
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 2: is a very good coach.

134
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: I think he has hired incredibly well in terms of

135
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: just the people that have to be in the building.

136
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: So that's what I thought when I saw it. But

137
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: they came out of the gate ice cold this fall.

138
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: That's ultimately how you get judged. That is the beauty

139
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: and nightmare of this stuff. You get twelve opportunities per

140
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: year to be judged, and if you drop a couple

141
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: of them early. No one cares how immaculate your facilities are.

142
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: No one cares how well you've hired. No one cares

143
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 1: about your strength and conditioning staff, and your nutrition staff,

144
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 1: and your sports science advances and your recruiting department, all

145
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 1: of which I think are top notched down there. No

146
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: one cares. You just got to win. He knows that.

147
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: I think everyone down there knows that. There's also another

148
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: reality that we have to acknowledge. They don't have a

149
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 1: president right now at the University of Florida. There is

150
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: no president, so they're in a sort of interim capacity

151
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: right now. Therefore, Scott Strickland, the athletic director, had to

152
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: make a call.

153
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 2: And he made it.

154
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: He probably made the same call i'd make. I'm certainly

155
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: not going to sit here and criticize him for it

156
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: when I would have probably done the same thing. And

157
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: by the same thing, I mean, I'm looking around and

158
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Number one, I've got the opportunity here to

159
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 1: kick the can down the road a year further.

160
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 2: That's really what this was.

161
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: It's not an overwhelming vote of confidence. I don't care

162
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: what the statement said. It's not an overwhelming vote of confidence.

163
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: A lot of stuff has to change there. He knows it,

164
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: Napier knows it, everybody associated with that program knows it.

165
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: If they had a permanent president in place, it very well.

166
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,559
Speaker 1: In me, the very well may have been the case

167
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: that Napier got fired, but that's not the case. So

168
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: those aren't the set of circumstances, and so Napier is

169
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: going to get another shot now. Kicking the can down

170
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: the road has a very pejorative connotation. Kicking the can

171
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: down the road road oftentimes is just code for something's

172
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: gonna happen. We're delaying it. A year that is certainly

173
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: in the cards here. It certainly could be the case

174
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: that a year from now, nothing is improved and we

175
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: are on the air, god willing, We're still on the air,

176
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: and we're doing a segment, not necessarily god willing, but

177
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: potentially we're doing a segment that billion Napiers no longer

178
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: the head coach of Florida. Yeah, that's one possibility. The

179
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: other possibility and I'm gonna zoom it out and kind

180
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: of speak generically here for a second, is the benefit

181
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: of the revenue sharing era is such that it's going

182
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: to cause some athletic director out there to practice patients

183
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: he otherwise would not practice. Meaning, since we got to

184
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: pay the players, we can't just willing Nelly fork out

185
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: fifty sixty seventy eighty million dollars to get rid of

186
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: one staff and hire a new staff, because it's less

187
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: affordable than it used to be, because we have to

188
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: treat this money as real money now instead of monopoly money. Therefore,

189
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: whereas I would have fired you if it were twenty twelve,

190
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: it's two twenty four. I'm gonna keep you around one

191
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: more year. That kind of stuff's happening, and it's gonna happen.

192
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: Someone's gonna look like a genius for that. Maybe it's

193
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: Scott Strickland. Maybe keeping Billy Napier around one year longer

194
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: buys him the opportunity to have one more year of

195
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: this very very young roster that they've invested their nil

196
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: dollars in. One more year of cranking up their nil machine,

197
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: one more year of DJ Lagway, one more year of

198
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: hopefully a little bit more favorable schedule next year, although

199
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: not much, and maybe just a better start. And maybe

200
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: they're sitting here in secret contention for the SEC championship

201
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: next year.

202
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe, maybe not. You know, that's the way this works.

203
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: I would, by the way, suggest to you, if you're

204
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,719
Speaker 1: watching live and we're on in the middle of the

205
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: day right now, please subscribe to the channel because this

206
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: is free and we do it all year long. And

207
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 1: I would humbly ask you to subscribe because it costs

208
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: you nothing, but it makes sure that the show remains

209
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: free to everyone. We appreciate you guys watching. So with

210
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: Billy Napier now remaining in his seat for at least

211
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: one more year, all right, So then I look at that,

212
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: that's done. That's settled as far as I'm concerned, then

213
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: I look at what needs to happen very simply. What

214
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: needs to happen is there need to be changes on

215
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: that coaching staff down there, because you've got to do

216
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: it your way, and your way didn't work so far

217
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: this year, so then you've got to do it a

218
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: different way. And that's as dumbed down as I could

219
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: possibly put that, because I don't want to get in

220
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: particular and specific on that. Number Two, You've got to

221
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: look at your big money folks, and you got to

222
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: ask them a question, and that simple question is how

223
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: serious are you about winning? They're gonna tell you they're

224
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 1: very serious about it, and you're gonna say, okay, prove it,

225
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: and they're gonna say, either okay, here's the blank check,

226
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: or well we need to see more, or well with

227
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: this check come conditions and we need a new head coach.

228
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: And if it's any of that, then at Napier's probably screwed.

229
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: But if you get the first attitude, if you get

230
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: them leaning in really really hard on doing the same

231
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: things that other universities are doing. You know, places like Texas,

232
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: places like Oregon, Ohio State, they don't really hear no

233
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: a whole lot, and everybody in the SEC, and for

234
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: that matter, every big time program in the Big ten,

235
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: they all like to flex about how money.

236
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 2: Is no object.

237
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: Man, football matters, it drives the bus, and we're all in.

238
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: But really not everyone's all in. Really it's a load

239
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: of garbage sometimes. But see, here's the thing. Ninety nine

240
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: percent of us are never in a position to have

241
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: eight and nine figure net worth to where we could

242
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: ever stroke those checks.

243
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,719
Speaker 2: So it's very easy, I will admit to you.

244
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: It's very easy to sit here behind a microphone or

245
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: to sit there on your message board or just texting

246
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: your body saying, man, our donor's got to step up.

247
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 2: But that doesn't change the fact.

248
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: That if you really are serious and you're that invested

249
00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 1: emotionally into the product that is Florida football, you might

250
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 1: as well go ahead and be invested financially to the

251
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: degree that your friends are at Alabama or at LSU,

252
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: or at Ohio State or at Texas or Oregon, because really,

253
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we're talking about you

254
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: being able to compete against them. We're talking about you

255
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: being able to compete against Miami, not just on the field,

256
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: but in recruiting, that's what it's going to come down to.

257
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: Finishing second best of those programs is enough to do

258
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: one thing and one thing only, and that is to

259
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: continue to lose to them. So this has nothing to

260
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: do with you and I. It has to do with

261
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: the big money folks down there. I mean, it's not

262
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: your grandfather's college football. That that's the way it works now,

263
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: per se. But that is the way it works now.

264
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: So billion Apier is and will be the head coach

265
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: at Florida for the foreseeable future. And I, for one,

266
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 1: do not think that his future is written in penn

267
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: I think it very much could be written in pencil.

268
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: I would encourage you to go to Academy Sports and

269
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: Outdoors no matter what you think though one of the

270
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: worst segues I've ever done. But nevertheless, Academy Sports and

271

Speaker 2: We need to encourage that sort of behavior. Thank you.

306
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: The Upsettlert meter is really really pinging for Week eleven.

307
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: I'm concerned, slash, nervous, slash outright scared for some of you.

308
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: Let's start in Austin, Florida with a suddenly safe billion

309
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: aaper is going to Texas. Texas is favored by twenty

310
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: one and a half DJ Lagway a multimillion dollar question.

311
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 2: Will he play?

312
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 1: He has practiced some and yet still I would refer

313
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: to him as very questionable for this game. We thought

314
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: his season was over last week, so it's good that

315
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: he's even able to be on the injury report. If

316
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: he doesn't play, they're not winning this game. They won't

317
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: be competitive in this game. If he is playing, it's

318
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: worth watching. I think he's practiced in a limited fashion

319
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: this week. This game's kind of up to Texas. To me,

320
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put a five on the upset Alert concern meter.

321
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: It's up to Texas how this plays out. Before they

322
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: went into their bye week, quinn Ewers had back to

323
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: back multiple turnover games. He'd been sacked nine times in

324
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: the last two games. Florida ran the ball okay versus Georgia,

325
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: and by okay, I mean they leaned on it heavily

326
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: and they were only like three yards per carry, but

327
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: they didn't get shut down. However, Texas is number three

328
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: in the country and run defense. I don't plan on

329
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: Florida being able to run the ball here and so

330
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: a lagway or not, but especially without lagway, this should

331
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: be in the bag. It is on Texas's terms. Texas

332
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: will decide how this game goes. I'm gonna put a

333
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: five on it only because the athletic profile overall of

334
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: that Florida team is good enough to where if Texas gives.

335
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 2: Them an opening, it could be like that Vandy game.

336
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: Could be much closer than any expert out there in

337
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: Vegas expects it to be. Miami's going to Atlanta this

338
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: Saturday to play Georgia Tech. Miami's favored by ten and

339
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: a half. Haines King of Game Time decision right now

340
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: for Georgia Tech kind of feel the same way here.

341
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: Need the starter for the underdog to play at quarterback

342
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: for him to have a good shot.

343
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech is off a bye.

344
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech is a relatively balanced offense, probably overall, the

345
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: most effective offense that Miami will have faced, I'd say

346
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: since the Louisville game, and that was back and forth.

347
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: Miami's up winning the game, but Georgia Tech can challenge

348
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: you there. I love the competitive profile of Georgia Tech

349
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: more than any Georgia Tech stat sheet wise, they measure

350
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: up here, they don't measure up there. There's a lot

351
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: of intangibles and unmeasurables that I really like about Georgia Tech.

352
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: So we've seen them the last two times. They had

353
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: two losses against Notre Dame in Virginia Tech. There's no

354
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: reason for the nation to be paying attention to this game,

355
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: and yet I'm going to pay attention anyway. Miami has

356
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: allowed some inferior opponents to hang with them before pulling

357
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: away late, so maybe that's how this game goes. But

358
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: that just puts you in a high variance position to

359
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: where if you turn the ball over a couple of times,

360
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: bad things can happen. So I'm going to put a

361
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: seven on the upset alert concern meter here. Miami overall

362
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: is a ten and a half point favorite. Let's look

363
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: up in Bloomington, Indiana.

364
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 2: Now.

365
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: I want to say this slowly because I always imagine

366
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: an August version of myself listening to a present day

367
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 1: version of myself. And if I were to tell myself

368
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: that Michigan was going to Indiana and the spread was

369
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: thirteen and a half, I would say Michigan has a

370
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: two touchdown favorite on the road in Indiana. Indiana must

371
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: have had a fairly decent year, right, Well, it is

372
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,239
Speaker 1: actually Indiana.

373
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: That is the thirteen and a half point favorite.

374
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: Here, at which point the August version of me would

375
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: have its head explode and then we would get janitorial

376
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: in here to clean it up, and Jesse would probably

377
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 1: do the show. But that's where we are. That is

378
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: college football in November twenty twenty four, and Indiana should

379
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: be able to throw the ball fairly consistently in this game.

380
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: Can Michigan keep up? I don't know. I don't think so.

381
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: I still am not used to this new normal. I'm

382
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: still not used to looking at these matchups where I

383
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: know the roster at Michigan should outclass the roster at Indiana.

384
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: I know that Kurt Signetti knows that. Now he doesn't care,

385
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: but even he knows that He's watched this game longer

386
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 1: than any of us mostly have. And I can't get

387
00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: used to not only thinking that Indiana will beat Michigan.

388
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: I'm asking how comfortably can they do it? I'm not

389
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,959
Speaker 1: used to that yet. Maybe I should get used to it.

390
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: I'm putting a five on the upset Alert concern meter

391
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: here only because I have to be able to see

392
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: you trading scores with Indiana to keep up, and I

393
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,719
Speaker 1: have trouble seeing Michigan do it.

394
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 2: Crazier things have happened.

395
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: Again, just a wild statement to be coming out of

396
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: one's mouth. Crazier things have happened than Michigan beating Indiana.

397
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: But that's where we are. Next up. This is one

398
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: of the more disappointing games that I will have talked

399
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: about all year. Clemson at Virginia Tech. Clemson's a five

400
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. I'm calling this the Disappointment Bowl.

401
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: I had this thing circled since the spring. I wanted

402
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: to be at this game. It was my shot to

403
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: go to a game at Lane Stadium, and now both

404
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: of them lost last week. All the shine got taken

405
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: off of it from a national perspective. And it's not

406
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: that I'm sad to be going to Baton Rouge, far

407
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: from it. But I've been to an LSU game before,

408
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: plenty of them. I've never been to a Virginia Tech game.

409
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: Who knows whomps to amongst us, knows what the future holds.

410
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: But as for this game eight and a half, I

411
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 1: got no clue what to expect from Clemson. They're laying

412
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: five and a half here. It was up near ten

413
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: last week before they lost. Now Virginia Tech lost as well.

414
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 1: They lost without Kyriene Drones. He's been practicing at quarterback

415
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: this week. We are cautiously optimistic that he plays. Virginia

416
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: Tech is eighty third versus the run. So on the

417
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: surface fil mofa game, right, it's a game where Clemson.

418
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 2: Can go on the road, remove a lot of the

419
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 2: variants from the equation.

420
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: Just run the ball, run the ball, run the ball, play,

421
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: actually pass, get out of there with a nice solid win,

422
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: if not a comfortable win. However, this is where the

423
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: Crowbar gets thrown in the bicycle spokes because I am

424
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: fresh off watching Louisville average seven point eight yards per

425
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 1: carry against Clemson. Dirty little secret. Clemson can be run

426
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 1: on and Virginia Tech can do a half decent job

427
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: of that. And so if Kyen drones US back and

428
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech starts winning on third downs, they stay ahead

429
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: of the chains and then home Field sinks its teeth

430
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: into Clemson.

431
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,360
Speaker 2: Because this is the spot for Virginia Tech.

432
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: This is the moment for Brent Pry and his staff

433
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: to sort of get their season defining, signature win. The

434
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: competitive resolve of each team is really what's in question here,

435
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: not that they don't have it, whoever practices more of

436
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: it in this game. That's ultimately what decides this. I've

437
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 1: got an eight and a half on this. I am very,

438
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: very leery of this game for Clemson. I just don't

439
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: think they're that much better. I think the JP pole

440
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: lied to us last week. So I'm keeping a close

441
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: eye on this one. And then there's the next game, which, hey,

442
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: I also had this one circled in the preseason Florida

443
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: State at Notre Dame. You know I had the audacity

444
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: in the spring when we talked about this game to

445
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:03,719
Speaker 1: wonder how much FSU may be favored by. Here we

446
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,479
Speaker 1: were trying to figure out if they'd be a favorite

447
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: in all twelve of their games, and this one we

448
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: looked at and we said, oh, well, probably be favored,

449
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: but but Notre Dame. If they're plucking now, it could

450
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: be close. Yeah, Notre Dame's favored by twenty five and

451
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: a half lay a million. I want to throw up

452
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: just talking about this game. There is someone walking around

453
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: the building today who shall remain nameless for hr purposes,

454
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 1: who referred to Florida State as a dead body. The

455
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: only question is does the body have a spine? And

456
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: that was their prediction on this game. That will determine

457
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: whether Florida State covers or it just gets trounced by forty.

458
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to go with the ladder. I have no

459
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 1: expectation for Florida State. I'm done with them for the year,

460
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 1: so I think Notre Dame is going to I don't

461
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: know pad their resume. This isn't really a resume game.

462
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: I got a one on the upset alert concern scale.

463
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: I will give you every bit of rat poison you

464
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: could ever hope to consume. At Notre Dame, I will

465
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 1: give you every bit of fuel that you could ever

466
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 1: hope to consume. I don't think that. I don't think

467
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: that Florida State's gas tank is even accepting fuel at

468
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: this point. It just overflows when you pull the handle.

469
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: I've never respected a team less than I do this

470
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: year's Florida State team. Well, maybe somewhere along the road,

471
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: but it's hard to remember that. So give me a

472
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: one on the upset alert concern scale. It will not happen. However, however,

473
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: stat's an info late arriving paper popper of a stat.

474
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: Let's not forget Marcus Freeman has lost twice as a

475
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: twenty plus point favorite recently. So I just want to

476
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: have said it. I don't believe it matters in this game,

477
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: but I want to have said it. And lastly, at

478
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 1: least as it's related to upsets. You know, Penn State

479
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: plays Saturday, anybody anybody? They play Washington kind of a

480
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: random game, right, it's the white out game.

481
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 2: There you go, one week, two late. It's the white

482
00:23:58,119 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 2: Out game.

483
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: If if I told you that there's a team playing

484
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 1: in this game that has the number two pass defense

485
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: in the country, and you would say, of course, good

486
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: for Penn State. They got those two portal corners and

487
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: they've been really good at locking down.

488
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 2: The passing game.

489
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: And I would say, no, Washington is the defense that

490
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: is number two in the country against the pass, and

491
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: you'd go, oh, well, I guess that means the vertical

492
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: passing game probably is not there for Penn State again

493
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 1: this week, which means they need to run the ball

494
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: to win, and that means we need to lean on

495
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: k Tron Allen and Nick Singleton and uh oh boy.

496
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 2: What's the line on the.

497
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: Game, Josh, Well, Penn State's favored by thirteen and a half.

498
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: The model for the record thinks they'll cover. I don't

499
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,919
Speaker 1: share that much enthusiasm because I just have this image

500
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: in my head of Will Rogers, if given enough time here,

501
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,679
Speaker 1: hanging around in this game, and Washington hanging around in

502
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: this game. I've got a six on the upset alert

503
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: Concerns scale. Now, these are the games James Franklin wins.

504
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting he won't, but the number on this

505
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: is thirteen and a half, so that's a big number.

506
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: But this is an outright upset segment. This is not

507
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: about covering. Wouldn't be the wildest thing we've ever seen.

508
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: I don't think it'll happen, but I'm putting a six

509
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: on it, and I will be very much paying attention

510
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 1: to that regardless. Our friends at Quick Trip fueling the

511
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: whole New Saturday tour. We are headed after this show

512
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: actually down to the great state of Louisiana.

513
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 2: We'll be in Baton Rouge for the next few days.

514
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: I'll be on the sideline Saturday night as a matter

515
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: of fact, for Alabama versus LSU. Still keeping an eye

516
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: on the tropics with Rafael approaching. Showers still a possibility,

517
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: Showers still potentially in the forecast here. Not a washout

518
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: I don't expect, at least not anything like that, but

519
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: could be a factor as well as a factor getting

520
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: home Sunday. So Gelby, if you're paying attention out there,

521
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 1: be prepared for a remote live show. I don't think

522
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: it'll come to that, but Quick Trip nevertheless fueling us

523
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: and giving away free gas all year and quick Trip

524
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 1: has made that possible. Quick Trip also, hey, it's not

525
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: just a place to get gas. Strongly encourage you guys

526
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: to go in end lists, food options and I grew

527
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 1: up in the South, where you make plans to go

528
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: to a gas station to eat and quick trip represents

529
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: themselves very well on that front. They're watching us in Billings, Montana,

530
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 1: making Georgia and reading Pennsylvania.

531
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 2: Thank you, guys, so so much.

532
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 1: Gotta be careful not to choke on the little mini

533
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: crushed ice there already took Thailand all pm before the show.

534
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm handling it pretty well. I feel it.

535
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm just putting on a brave face right now. I'm

536
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 1: actively trying to keep my eyes open. I just want

537
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 1: people to feel sorry for me. It's really all I've

538
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: ever wanted on this show, all right, quickly through this.

539
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: The college football playoff bubble is a thing now since

540
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 1: we're putting twelve teams in here, which means a bunch

541
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: of people are wondering, well, my resume stack up? Well

542
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: Tennessee's resume stack up. That's one of the first things

543
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: I wondered the other night. They're the number seven team

544
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: in the country. Right now. I've got a question, what

545
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: does a loss to Georgia do to Tennessee?

546
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 2: What does a loss do Let's just.

547
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: For the sake of argument, say that they go, they

548
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,239
Speaker 1: lose to Georgia, and that's the only other loss they have.

549
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 1: They've got a loss at Arkansas, a loss at Georgia.

550
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 1: They're a ten and two team. I would guess they

551
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: don't go to Atlanta. For the sake of argument, let's

552
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: say they don't go. What are we looking at here, Well,

553
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: we're looking at a team that beat Alabama firstly, and

554
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: therefore we were probably going to always be looking at

555
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: a team that got compared to Alabama. Now there are

556
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: a million different variables in the equation. What I'm paying

557
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 1: attention to is there is a world we could get

558
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 1: to where Alabama.

559
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 2: Let's say, you know they went out.

560
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: Let's say Tennessee's got two losses, Bama's got two losses.

561
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: You know, the old protocol is if teams are thought

562
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: to be comparable, head to head record is supposed to

563
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,959
Speaker 1: be the deciding And therefore, if Alabama and Tennessee are

564
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: viewed as comparable and Tennessee's got the head to head win,

565
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: that's supposed to default Tennessee above Alabama. What I wonder

566
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: if Tennessee has a second loss and one of those

567
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: losses is Arkansas, the other loss is Georgia. Do people

568
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 1: look at the games you've lost if it comes head

569
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 1: to head Bama Tennessee, or do people look at the

570
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: games you've won, Because if they look at the games

571
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: you've won, as bad as that Vandy loss kind of

572
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 1: could be considered for Bama, they will have had wins

573
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: at LSU that have a win against Georgia, like they'd

574
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: have some really good looking wins. So South Carolina's a

575
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: pretty good win as well. So I wonder, in other words,

576
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: if there is a world where the committee looks at

577
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: Bama's resume two losses, Tennessee's two losses, and they think

578
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: Bama's unequivocally a better resume and head to head never

579
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: enters the equation, That's.

580
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 2: An open ended question for me.

581
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: I'm actively wondering how the committee will handle that notre

582
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: name right now. Kind of looked at where they were

583
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: placed the other night, and I thought, that Northern Illinois

584
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: game is very visible. That Northern Illinois loss is inexcusable.

585
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: It should matter, should very much matter. I remember Fornelli

586
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: when they lost that game. I remember listening to one

587
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: Tom Fournelli, just yell. I hate that we're living in

588
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: a world where you could lose a game like that

589
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 1: and still be alive in the playoff discussion, and he

590
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: and I are cut from the same cloth when it

591
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 1: comes to our beliefs on the playoffs, so I agree

592
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: with him, but we can't change it. So we do

593
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: have the format we have. The committee looks like they're

594
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: yelling at Notre Dame that loss is going to matter.

595
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 1: It's going to be a weight tied to your ankle. However,

596
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: you're not dead. You're not dead. You got wins against

597
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: A and M. You gotta win against Louisville. That's all

598
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: well and good. However, USC's killing them right now. Florida

599
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: State's killing them right now. Once upon a time, we

600
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: looked earlier in the year at Notre Dame schedule and

601
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: we said, well, whatever happens early in the season, they'll

602
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: have an opportunity against the highly ranked Florida State. They'll

603
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: have an opportunity against the highly ranked USC. No you

604
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: won't and no you won't. Army Army of all teams

605
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: is there only remaining ranked opponent. And I don't know

606
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: what Army will be by the time they play them.

607
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: I've got no issue with that, though, you lose to

608
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: Northern Illinois at home, I got no issue. You ought

609
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: to be very, very perfect and still possibly have your

610
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: fate not totally in your hands. Now in the world

611
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: of power ratings, you guys know, I got Notre Name

612
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: fifth in the country. So a lot of times I

613
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: have teams lower, like Brigham Young, for example, I may

614
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: have them lower, but I'll tell you, if I were

615
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: ranking teams, i'd have them higher. Well with Notre Dame,

616
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: I've got Notre Name power rated way up there, but

617
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 1: if I were ranking them, I would not have them

618
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 1: that high.

619
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 2: So it goes both ways.

620
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: Then we get to SMU and Brigham Young. Let me

621
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: talk about Brigham Young first. So they're undefeated right now.

622
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: In fact, Brigham Young sitting here undefeated right now, talking

623
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: to FanDuel earlier today, and I was just looking at

624
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: some of the market they're offering.

625
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 2: I got some advice to you.

626
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 1: If you're a BYU believer, if you're a BYU backer,

627
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: you think they finish the season undefeated. Over at FanDuel

628
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 1: right now, they've got odds on teams to finish undefeated.

629
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: There are four of them left Oregon, Miami, Brigham Young, Indiana,

630
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: and right now, if you believe in Brigham Young, you

631
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: can get them at plus four hundred to finish the

632
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: season undefeated the regular season, So go twelve and oh

633
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: if you think that's gonna happen at plus four hundred.

634
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 2: But what I wanted to know I hit David and

635
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 2: the traders up.

636
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: I said, could you give me the lines as it

637
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: stands right now on their remaining games? They are not

638
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: publicly available to be bet on. However, I just wanted

639
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: to have an idea because I suspected they'd be favored

640
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: in all these games, and they would be. They play

641
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: Utah this Saturday, you can bet that game right now.

642
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: They're favored by three and a half. They got Kansas

643
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: at home, Brigham Young minus six and a half right now.

644
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 1: Hypothetically they go to Arizona State right now, they'd be

645
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: a short one and a half point favorite against the

646
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: Sun Devils, even on the road. And then they'd welcome

647
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: in Hughes at home to end the year. That'd be

648
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: about a ten and a half point favored against Houston.

649
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: So they're favored as of now in all four remaining games.

650
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: They're technically favored to be undefeated. If you want to

651
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: look at it, that way. There's another argument that says

652
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: that's not the way you should look at favorability over

653
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: the span of multiple games. But nevertheless, if you think

654
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: they're going undefeated, you can get them plus four hundred

655
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: right now. So I'm looking at them. I'm looking at

656
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: SMU currently in the driver's seat themselves for a conference

657
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 1: championship berth. I keep hearing everyone tell me they're not

658
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: gonna punish losing in the conference title game. Why, because

659
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: we have to incentivize the conference championship game.

660
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 2: Conference title games have to mean something.

661
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, I'm on board with that logic. Therefore,

662
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: I don't doubt if Georgia were to lose in Atlanta

663
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: that they'd still be in the playoff.

664
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 2: I don't doubt that.

665
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: I don't doubt if Oregon were to lose, or Ohio

666
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: State were to lose in Indianapolis, that the'd still be

667
00:32:59,440 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: in the playoff.

668
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 2: I don't doubt that. But I do.

669
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: Strongly doubt what you guys will do with bring him young.

670
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: If they go undefeated and then they lose in the

671
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: conference title game, you dropping them. You're dropping them. And

672
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: then here's a really big conundrum. SMU is not undefeated.

673
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: They got a loss, ironically to BYU. They've got a

674
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,719
Speaker 1: loss right now, it's out of conference, so they've got

675
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: a loss. So what if SMU stays winning the rest

676
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: of the way. What if SMU goes to Charlotte, they

677
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: play Miami and they lose, and they finish with two losses,

678
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: one of them was in the conference title game. Are

679
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: you guys looking at me and seriously saying if SMU

680
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: were to enter conference Championship Saturday ranked tenth but then

681
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: they lost their second game, that you wouldn't drop them out.

682
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 2: I'm openly calling.

683
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: BS on that. With the committee. You will have to

684
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: prove me wrong on that. I think you guys absolutely

685
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 1: would drop them out. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

686
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: We'll see how many SEC and Big ten teams are

687
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: going to this thing. My best guess would be four

688
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: SEC teams Right now, I'm pretty locked in on three

689
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 1: Big ten teams. I'm my best guess would be four

690
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: SEC teams, and if not four, then five. I think

691
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: five is more likely than three. It kind of comes

692
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: down to Indiana, and I'll talk about them in a second.

693
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 1: Indiana could grab one of these spots sort of out

694
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: of nowhere. The Big twelve and the ACC Conference championship

695
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: situation could delve into chaos. You know, because if Brigham

696
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: Young is undefeated and they go play a one or

697
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: two loss or whatever, Iowa stayed in the Big twelve

698
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: championship game and they lose, well, the team they lost

699
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: two is in. But if BYU doesn't drop out of

700
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: the Top twelve, they're also in, so that grabs up

701
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 1: a spot. Same thing could happened with the whole SMU

702
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: versus Miami thing. So there's a lot still up in

703
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: the air. I think either four or five SEC teams

704
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: that would be my guess right now. How messy is

705
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: the SEC going to get? There are a lot of scenarios.

706
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: Like when we first made this thing, a lot of

707
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: people looked around and they said, well, the SEC Conference

708
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 1: Championship game, I mean it's.

709
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 2: Pretty cut and dry.

710
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 1: The winner will get a first round by and the

711
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: loser will be you know, like the five or six seed. Yeah,

712
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 1: that's cause you applied prior logic to a current situation.

713
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: Prior logic was it's just Georgia Bama in the SEC

714
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: title game all the time, and they're undefeated or one loss,

715
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: Max and that's really cutting dry, that's really clean. Well,

716
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 1: this year it could be chaotic. Just one example here,

717
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: I'm not going to throw all of match you. One example.

718
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 1: There could be a logjam of two loss conference teams

719
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: in the SEC, and you've got two losses versus two

720
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: losses in Atlanta, and and someone loses their third game, Well,

721
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: are you punishing both of them?

722
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 2: Are you punishing the loser of the.

723
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: SEC title game who incurs their third loss? No one

724
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: kind of expected that to be the resume, But I'll

725
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: throw one at you. Let's say Texas A and M

726
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 1: right now, a two loss team. One of those losses

727
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: is out of conference. So let's say A and M

728
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 1: wins the rest of the way until the Texas game.

729
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: They lose that one. That would make them a two

730
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: loss team in conference, three loss team overall. Some random

731
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: tiebreaker could send A and M to Atlanta. I think

732
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 1: you know where I'm going with this. That would be

733
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 1: a nine to three Texas A and M team in Atlanta.

734
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 1: And they lose in Atlanta, which is their fourth loss.

735
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 1: How do you handle them? Do they drop from where

736
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: they were ranked going into that weekend, whether they were

737
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 1: in the top twelve or not do they drop do

738
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 1: they get punished for losing a fourth game just cause

739
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: it's the conference title game. My point is it could

740
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: get a whole lot messier even in the SEC conference

741
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 1: championship picture, because here's what I'd yell. If I were

742
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 1: A and M and I were in that situation and

743
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: I go and I suffer my fourth loss in Atlanta,

744
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,359
Speaker 1: that's one way to look at it.

745
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 2: One way to look at it.

746
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 1: It is very simple, Josh, you can't have a four

747
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 1: loss team in the playoff.

748
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 2: I get it.

749
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: But here's the follow up. A should shout right back

750
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: in your face. And what Greg SANKI would probably hand

751
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: them the mic to yell would be, you're telling us

752
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: we were the second best team in the SEC, but

753
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 1: we're not good enough to make a twelve team playoff.

754
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: In what world does that make sense? You're actively telling

755
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: us we shouldn't have scheduled Notre Dame that you're just

756
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: telling us we should have scheduled McNeice, and and if

757
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 1: we scheduled McNeice then would have one less loss, and

758
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: we just are what.

759
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: Our record says we are.

760
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: Apparently it's messy, and the Indiana Protocol, of course is

761
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: basically the committee the other night they were so hospitable.

762
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: Indiana knocked on the door and the committee said.

763
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 2: It's Indiana. What do we do? Tell them to come in?

764
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: And then Indiana comes in and they say, welcome, Indiana,

765
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 1: stand right over here, stand on this rug. And Indiana

766
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 1: stands on the rug. And then when no one's looking,

767
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: they look under the rug and there's just a trapdoor

768
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,439
Speaker 1: under the rug. Everyone's waiting for the Ohio State game

769
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: so that if they lose, they'll press the but and

770
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: Indiana will be gone and done with and they can

771
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 1: say we gave.

772
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 2: Them a chance.

773
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: They didn't hold up their end of the deal. But

774
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 1: I have a question for you guys. Has anyone considered

775
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: that Indiana could lose to Michigan but beat Ohio State.

776
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,360
Speaker 1: What happens then? What happens if Indiana just loses this

777
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: weekend to Michigan. It'd be pretty wild, but not impossible.

778
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: They lose this weekend and they turn the ball over

779
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: five times or something like that. Then they go to

780
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: Columbus and their plus two turnovers and they win, and

781
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: they got one of the best wins in the conference.

782
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 2: How do you handle them? Then?

783
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,439
Speaker 1: I don't know I don't know playoff bubble huh. I'd

784
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: pop it in a millisecond if I could, But I can't.

845
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: You ever flown into Lafayette, Louisiana by any chats?

846
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 4: Absolutely have did sun Belt for multiple years for CSS,

847
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 4: a station that no longer exists. But yes, have been

848
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 4: to what's in What's the place, Oh, pre Jons is

849
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 4: where everybody goes to eat uh a lot of fried seafood,

850
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,319
Speaker 4: and I think they have Krispy Kream bread putting just

851
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 4: for you, So I know that's what you're looking for.

852
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: Yes, as soon as I got myself into the zero

853
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: sugar soda market, that is what I started to look for.

854
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 2: All Right. I appreciate that.

855
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 1: So Alabama plays LSU Saturday night, there's still a great

856
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: big question mark on both teams foreheads for me. You

857
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: and I talked earlier this week, and I want to

858
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 1: just put it out in.

859
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 2: The open here.

860
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,479
Speaker 1: We kind of talked about this last week too, about

861
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,280
Speaker 1: the whole LSU run game conundrum, about how it hasn't

862
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,760
Speaker 1: been there consistently, about how in turn Garrett nuss Meyer's

863
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:34,560
Speaker 1: really been turnover prone.

864
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 2: Partly because of that, partly because he's just turnover prone.

865
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: And so you and I were chopping up that some

866
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 1: teams just can't run the ball because they don't have

867
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: the personnel. To others, they may have the personnel if

868
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: they lean into it a little bit more and they

869
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 1: commit to it a little bit more. You are in

870
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: the latter camp, are you not? With LSU.

871
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 4: I think they could run the ball if they wanted to.

872
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 4: I think you have an offensive line that physicality is

873
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 4: not really an issue. You'll be down a starting guard

874
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 4: this week, so that'll be a little bit different. But

875
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 4: I think Emery Jones, Will Campbell and those guys, if

876
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 4: given the chance to get downhill on a.

877
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 3: Regular basis, easily could Like you.

878
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 4: Mentioned, they're just not given the opportunity to be that

879
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 4: football team, and against this Alabama team, I think it

880
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 4: might be a little bit more beneficial to be able

881
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 4: to find ways to do that, mainly to protect Garrett Nutsmayer. Now,

882
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 4: I don't think Alabama can just get home with one

883
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 4: on ones and just from a four or three man

884
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 4: pass us the entire game. But becoming one dimensional allows

885
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,720
Speaker 4: you to defend things in different ways and easier ways.

886
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 4: I think it allows you to be a little bit

887
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 4: more precise in how you disguise things and when you

888
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 4: want to bring your pressures. So I think it's it

889
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 4: would allow them to control the game a little bit

890
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 4: more and not have to get away from utilizing their weapons,

891
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 4: just make it easier and easier to protect when doing

892
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 4: so at different times. One hundred and fifteen yards a game,

893
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,320
Speaker 4: you want to take a guess where that ranks in

894
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 4: the Southeastern Conference.

895
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 2: It ain't good. It ain't good.

896
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 4: It's not above sixteen. So yeah, all the other teams

897
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 4: are ahead of them. Now, I will say this, you

898
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 4: look at attempts, two hundred and eighteen attempts would also

899
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,280
Speaker 4: be the fewest in the Southeastern Conference. So, again fallowing

900
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 4: up with what we're saying, it's not a must have

901
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 4: for them to win this football game.

902
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:17,720
Speaker 3: I really believe Josh only.

903
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 4: Must have LSU has to win this football game is

904
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 4: for Garrett Nusmeyer to not throw the ball to Crimson Jersey.

905
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 3: If that happens, they had a great chance to win

906
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 3: this game.

907
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, let me float you something else here. You may

908
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:32,800
Speaker 1: have talked about this on radio down there with McElroy.

909
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 1: I always loved.

910
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:35,919
Speaker 2: Sabing teams going on the road.

911
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: Not that they were bad at home, but I always

912
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: felt like they were just totally dialed in and locked

913
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: in on the road. Maybe that's anecdotal, but that's the

914
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 1: way I remember them. We're really, really, really early year

915
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 1: one in Kaylin de Bor's tenure, so really the only

916
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 1: road memories we have of him is the Vanderbilt game,

917
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,919
Speaker 1: But I kind of paint that as as one off

918
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,840
Speaker 1: year one type stuff. I remember the Tennessee game. I

919
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,719
Speaker 1: remember how discombobulated they seemed, and I was up there

920
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 1: for that game, and that place can do that to

921
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 1: a lot of teams, but you know, vintage Alabama, they'd

922
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,799
Speaker 1: go in there and then empty those places out and

923
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: you'd never have a shot. So I don't I know

924
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 1: the whole elimination game talk is around this, and I

925
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,760
Speaker 1: know we make huge headlines and we cast the division

926
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 1: of a coach after every game. I don't think that

927
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: way about this one, but I do think more and

928
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 1: more you kind of start to learn about just the

929
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 1: overall profile of the Alabama program under debor, and like

930
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 1: how they handle these spots, because you're gonna have two,

931
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: three or four of them depending on the schedule every

932
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: year if you're there. And it's still too early, I

933
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: will admit that for the third time, but I watched

934
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,440
Speaker 1: him at Washington and it was them coming out on

935
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 1: the right side of a bunch of one possession games.

936
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:49,359
Speaker 1: And I wonder, as he gets more into his time

937
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 1: at Alabama, do they start to redevelop that profile of

938
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: going on the road and leaving no doubt, or is

939
00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: their wheelhouse to go on the road. Hopefully they're in

940
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 1: it in the fourth quarter and then they just land

941
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: one more punch than you. But every one of these

942
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 1: big games on the road, one hundred plus thousand seed

943
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 1: environments is cross your fingers coin flip kind of hope

944
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: for the best sort of thing.

945
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 4: I don't really believe it could be the latter, because

946
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 4: in order to do that, I think you need to

947
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 4: control games. I'll give you a perfect example of that.

948
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 4: It was Auburn Vanderbilt last week. A lot of what

949
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 4: I heard from Auburn fans after that game was, Oh,

950
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 4: we were right there, we had them, We're in that game,

951
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 4: played such a good game, outgained them by one hundred

952
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 4: First off, Vanderbilt could care less how many yards they have,

953
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 4: how many yards they are out gained by, or outgained

954
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 4: you by.

955
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:38,399
Speaker 3: I guarantee you.

956
00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:42,240
Speaker 4: Clark Lee pitched that style football game to his team

957
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,400
Speaker 4: every day of the week last week, and he said,

958
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 4: get us to eight minutes left, get us to five

959
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 4: minutes left down a score tie game, and boys, we

960
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 4: got them right where we want them not. We have

961
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 4: to win by twenty one or it has to be

962
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 4: a track meet. Let's get up and down the field.

963
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 4: We better score every possession. He was pitching to them.

964
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 4: Slow this thing down, take a few punches, give a

965
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 4: few back, and when we get the ball at the

966
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,399
Speaker 4: end of the game, we know what to do with it.

967
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 4: And when that game got down to six to four

968
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 4: minutes left and it's a tie game or three point game,

969
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:14,879
Speaker 4: how many of those Auburn kids you think we're looking

970
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 4: around knowing they had been there and we're going to

971
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 4: go do that.

972
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,439
Speaker 3: None, because they haven't this year.

973
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,000
Speaker 4: Every single time they've been in that situation, it has

974
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 4: ended poorly. So sometimes getting into a certain style of

975
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 4: fight is more beneficial to a certain team. Alabama being

976
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 4: a will take the last possession, grind it out, either

977
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,479
Speaker 4: get a stop or go get a score late type

978
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,919
Speaker 4: football team is not what we've seen from them this year.

979
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 4: Doesn't mean they can't do it. It's just I don't

980
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 4: know if they want to live there, and if they

981
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,719
Speaker 4: do live there, I think we have to see more

982
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 4: of the physical offensive team we saw against Missouri, glimpses

983
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:51,360
Speaker 4: of against Wisconsin, and almost none of against Vanderbilt because

984
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,319
Speaker 4: they only handed the ball off on consecutive downs four

985
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,399
Speaker 4: times in four quarters of football. So I think they

986
00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 4: can get to be that style team, Josh, I don't

987
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:00,359
Speaker 4: think they're that team right right now.

988
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 1: Though.

989
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,720
Speaker 4: The other part with the Saban teams, like Saban Saban

990
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 4: cut his teams from a different cloth. And this is

991
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 4: this is not a knock on kaelin Debor. Listen, we

992
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,239
Speaker 4: can be right in multiple instances when we talk about

993
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 4: how you guide a team, or build a team, or

994
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 4: direct a team. Saban directed a team with an edge.

995
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,320
Speaker 4: And you know there's a lot of middle fingers, and

996
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:21,800
Speaker 4: there's a lot fu and there's a lot of we

997
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 4: don't care. So your your thought process about going on

998
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 4: the road. Greg's actually told us this before how much

999
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,399
Speaker 4: they like going on the road. There there are disadvantages

1000
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,640
Speaker 4: of playing at home. Sometimes it's very comfortable, it's very fun.

1001
00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 4: There's a lot of smiles, it feels really cool, you

1002
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 4: feel important, you feel special. It's a lot easier to

1003
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 4: get pissed off at your opponent when you go on

1004
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 4: the road. I mean, you got four year olds and

1005
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 4: baton rouge. When you're going down towards the stadium, throwing

1006
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 4: rocks at your bus and giving you middle fingers, it's

1007
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 4: just like you're you're ready to play. I mean you

1008
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 4: see miniatures coming up when you're getting off the bus,

1009
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:54,479
Speaker 4: like you know, confetti and all.

1010
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 3: You're like, all right, let's go. Then you're you're ready

1011
00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:57,919
Speaker 3: to go get in a fight.

1012
00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 4: Sometimes at home it takes a little longer to build

1013
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:02,360
Speaker 4: that attitude.

1014
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:03,920
Speaker 3: Up because everybody's for you.

1015
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 4: And the Vanderbilt was not a great situation, like you mentioned,

1016
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,279
Speaker 4: because it was eighty five percent Alabama fans. So even

1017
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 4: though it was on the road and it was different,

1018
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 4: probably not comfortable, it wasn't hostile.

1019
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 3: By any stretch of the imagination.

1020
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 1: Have you heard a lot of this talk as we

1021
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,799
Speaker 1: do the playoff bubble thing and the playoff reveal show

1022
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 1: the other night. I opened our mail bag today and

1023
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 1: I said, you know, give me what you want us

1024
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 1: to talk about. So a lot of folks are asking, like, well,

1025
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 1: what's what's this parody all of a sudden coming from

1026
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 1: and some people theorized the portal.

1027
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 2: Of course, some people theorized nil.

1028
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 1: I got a lot of folks with a dead serious

1029
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: face who were looking me in the eye saying, I

1030
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 1: bet you love this playoff now, huh. This expanded playoff

1031
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: has injected a lot of parody into the sport and

1032
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 1: I looked to my left, and I looked to my right.

1033
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 1: As far as I can tell, we haven't even played

1034
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: a playoff yet.

1035
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 2: Therefore, how do.

1036
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 1: You sell me on the notion that all of this

1037
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 1: wouldn't be happening regardless, Like if I changed the end

1038
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: of the season right now to the BCS model, we're

1039
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 1: all funneling towards a two team playoff.

1040
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 2: The games are still the games.

1041
00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 1: Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Ohio State have still looked as vulnerable

1042
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 1: as they always would have looked.

1043
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 2: There's nothing about the playoff per se that has done that.

1044
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 1: Now, if you want to sell me on portal, you

1045
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,760
Speaker 1: want to sell me on nil slash portal, I'll believe

1046
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 1: that I've told you, and I will continue to say

1047
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 1: this until I'm blue in the face. I think Kirby

1048
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,479
Speaker 1: was right in the spring when he talked about how

1049
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 1: big the drop off has always been from their number

1050
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 1: one to their number three at any given position, and

1051
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 1: then extrapolate that over the top twenty five and look

1052
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 1: at how many elite programs have lost the second layer

1053
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: of their depth to nil because someone's willing to pay

1054
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: one in a quarter for your left guard back up

1055
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 1: and you're not willing to match it because you don't

1056
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:49,839
Speaker 1: think he's worth that.

1057
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 2: And so now you lose.

1058
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,399
Speaker 1: Tate Ratledge, or you lose your starting tailback, you lose

1059
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 1: your starting sam linebacker, and you put in a three

1060
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 1: as opposed to a two, and your former two used

1061
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: to be able to start most places in college football.

1062
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 2: That's to me the difference.

1063
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 1: And then also maybe not having a ton of really

1064
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 1: high level slam dunk first round quarterback play this year,

1065
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:13,640
Speaker 1: and then development of the quarterback position is its own situation.

1066
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 1: But I don't think there's an easy way to say

1067
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: hey in one tweet or in one sentence with thirty

1068
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:22,960
Speaker 1: seconds left to go in a radio call. Here's why

1069
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of parody in college football. But I

1070
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,760
Speaker 1: do think it's encapsulated there somewhere.

1071
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 4: I know you didn't ask me a seven minute question

1072
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 4: and say I had thirty seconds to ansor.

1073
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:34,840
Speaker 2: You know you have a lot of real things to you.

1074
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying you guys do that on radio all the time.

1075
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 4: Remember development, and when I forget where I'm going, because

1076
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 4: these are both going to be different directions here, you

1077
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:45,880
Speaker 4: can just say development was your second part you were

1078
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 4: going with that because that's interesting.

1079
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 3: The first part of that.

1080
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 4: Is there are still coaches out there that put a

1081
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 4: premium on rivalries in importance of games. Josh Haipel a

1082
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,239
Speaker 4: great example of this. We sit down with him last

1083
00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 4: Friday before we have Kentucky Tennessee, and he said, listen, guys,

1084
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 4: it's a border game for us, a state that borders us.

1085
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 4: It's a rivalry game that goes back a long time.

1086
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:08,360
Speaker 4: It means a lot to a lot of people, to

1087
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 4: a lot of our fans that have been around here

1088
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 4: for a long time, whose dads and granddads and grandma's

1089
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 4: and me mos all came to this game and wanted

1090
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:16,920
Speaker 4: to win this game because of who it was. He's like,

1091
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:20,839
Speaker 4: you guys know the trophy situation, and our players.

1092
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 3: Now know about it.

1093
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,240
Speaker 4: We educate them on it. We educate them the importance

1094
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 4: of this game. We heard him talking about the Alabama game,

1095
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 4: and I think some people took it as a slight

1096
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 4: towards Nick Saban, and it wasn't. But when he was

1097
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 4: asked about the Saban years, Hypel said, yeah, man, but

1098
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 4: this thing goes way back before Saban. Like we're talking

1099
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 4: Neeland Stalling. There's a lot of other guys that had

1100
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 4: very impactful moments within this rivalry. This thing's been happening

1101
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 4: for a long time. There are coaches that still understand

1102
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 4: the premium that needs to be should be, and want

1103
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,920
Speaker 4: to put on games like that. So I'm with you

1104
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:57,960
Speaker 4: that those are gonna stay where we're headed in some

1105
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,440
Speaker 4: of the other instances of important games. What games are

1106
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 4: gonna mean, bowl games, late season games, rivalry games. You

1107
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 4: and I've also had a lot of conversations about multiple

1108
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:09,800
Speaker 4: teams right now that we're talking about being in the hunt.

1109
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,360
Speaker 4: If they lose one more game, we're going to be

1110
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 4: having COVID conversations about those teams of can they even

1111
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 4: get enough kids to travel and play? We believe that's real.

1112
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 4: We don't know that, but we believe it is real.

1113
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 4: To the development aspect of what you were saying and

1114
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,880
Speaker 4: kind of where we are collectively, the portal has a

1115
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 4: lot to do with it, But the development portion of that,

1116
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 4: I think is also attributed to the portal and to

1117
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:35,759
Speaker 4: just we don't talk about this enough overall turnover. I

1118
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:37,400
Speaker 4: brought this up to Rome and when we are getting

1119
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,239
Speaker 4: ready to do Read and React the other night because

1120
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 4: we were talking about quarterbacks and players, and they always

1121
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,279
Speaker 4: bring up offensive line play, and people love asking me

1122
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:46,239
Speaker 4: why is offensive line play down? And I'll sell this

1123
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 4: it is there's not a ton of elite offensive line

1124
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 4: play as a group collectively right now in college football.

1125
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,560
Speaker 4: And it used to be spread offenses, hurry up, no huddle,

1126
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,400
Speaker 4: because if you're going fast, you're not practicing finishing your blocks.

1127
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 4: And then it was well, we're throw it and pitch

1128
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 4: it around real quick and never have to protect from

1129
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 4: any long gated period of time. We don't have to

1130
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 4: work on that position anyway. There was a lot of

1131
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 4: ways that the emphasis was on circumventing blocking people, then.

1132
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 3: Practicing blocking people.

1133
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,319
Speaker 4: Getting away from the physicality and practices has a lot

1134
00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 4: to do with that.

1135
00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:16,840
Speaker 3: But I asked him this question. I want you to

1136
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 3: think about it.

1137
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 4: We're talking quarterback plays, and I think this hurts offensive

1138
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 4: line play too. How many starting college quarterbacks right now

1139
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,120
Speaker 4: do you believe And I'll full disclosure, I don't know

1140
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 4: this number have been with their coordinator for three years.

1141
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 2: Not a lot.

1142
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 1: Quinn Ewers is one of them, which is why I

1143
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 1: wish he was playing a lot better than he is.

1144
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:35,359
Speaker 2: But there are not a lot of them.

1145
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,719
Speaker 4: Diego Pavia will be another, and then I think we

1146
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:43,319
Speaker 4: would start running in circles. I mean it's less than

1147
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 4: thirty on all of college football.

1148
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be way less, way less than thirty.

1149
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:49,360
Speaker 3: I think most people.

1150
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:52,319
Speaker 4: Would tell you that year two is the year that

1151
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:55,719
Speaker 4: you take a massive leap adapting to your offense, and

1152
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 4: then year three is when you start doing things outside

1153
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 4: of the normal realm of coaching and playing. I can

1154
00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:04,439
Speaker 4: tell you my third year in a system was when

1155
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 4: I started noticing safeties and coverage and things that we

1156
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 4: didn't ever talked about in how he ran, a player

1157
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,040
Speaker 4: executed or assignments, because those were tells on other things

1158
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 4: that were going to take place.

1159
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 3: Similar for a quarterback, where how a corner.

1160
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 4: Is lined up, or how a defensive end is lined up,

1161
00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:20,959
Speaker 4: or how of far off the ball linebacker is. Normally

1162
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 4: wouldn't pay attention to that, but they've seen all that

1163
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:25,720
Speaker 4: so they can pay attention to the advanced.

1164
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:25,759
Speaker 3: Side of it.

1165
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 4: That's where experience still helps, but experience around the same

1166
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,280
Speaker 4: people allows you to take some of those giant leaps

1167
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 4: later on. And then two, from an offensive line perspective,

1168
00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:38,480
Speaker 4: think about what we're doing right now. In college football,

1169
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,439
Speaker 4: almost everybody does it. Sark is eleade at it. Andy

1170
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 4: Ludwig's gone at Utah, but he was the best as well.

1171
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 4: I mean, you watched Andy Lugwig offense. You're sitting there going, good, God,

1172
00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:50,240
Speaker 4: snap the football enough with the movement everybody pre snapped

1173
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,040
Speaker 4: me was well, you hated about Jimbo last year, right, So.

1174
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 3: Now quarterbacks have to handle all that.

1175
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 4: That's taking away from them focusing on what's happening on

1176
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 4: the other side of the football, and as an offense

1177
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,480
Speaker 4: its avignment. I can tell you if we shift a

1178
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,799
Speaker 4: tight end and then we trade two receivers and then

1179
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 4: you motion a receiver into the backfield to run the football,

1180
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 4: you think that picture that defense stays the same. Now

1181
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 4: this is for the quarterback and the center. All that changes.

1182
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 4: And then now we got four seconds on the play clout,

1183
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 4: we got to snapped the ball. I can't repoint Mike linebacker.

1184
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 4: I can't rego through my assignments. Everybody better know what

1185
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:25,799
Speaker 4: we're doing. That goes back to what you said about

1186
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,800
Speaker 4: the backups. If my left guard's been here four months,

1187
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 4: he and I haven't seen all those looks. We haven't

1188
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 4: talked about all that movement we haven't discussed in film

1189
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 4: in practice some of these advanced looks that we didn't

1190
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,879
Speaker 4: just scout and go through on our scout team every week.

1191
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 4: So that's a long endurance and that's a lot. But

1192
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 4: from a developmental standpoint, I really do think not just

1193
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 4: player turnover, but how long players have been with their staffs,

1194
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,600
Speaker 4: with their individual coaches, that is decreasing by the year,

1195
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,400
Speaker 4: and it's hampering the development of all college football.

1196
00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 3: In my opinion.

1197
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: A lot of that's also staff turnover, and a lot

1198
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 1: of it's not my head coach got fired, like a

1199
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 1: lot of it is. Anytime that a stack category drops,

1200
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 1: you got a fan base that demands the head of

1201
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,120
Speaker 1: the offensive line coach or the running backs coach. And

1202
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:12,719
Speaker 1: I mean, look, there are a million variables that go

1203
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:17,360
Speaker 1: into how your room stacked up this year. But there's

1204
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: almost like a penny wise pound foolish mentality of we

1205
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: want the wide receivers coach gone, or we want the

1206
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:24,080
Speaker 1: offensive line coach gone.

1207
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 2: We want to do it in here. We want to

1208
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:26,480
Speaker 2: hit the.

1209
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 1: Ground running, like we want to immediately see a spike,

1210
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 1: and we don't see that immediately. Why don't we see that?

1211
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: Because the continuity piece is not there. But that's not

1212
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 1: a stack category on PFF. So like we don't really

1213
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 1: value continuity because we can't really numerically define continuity.

1214
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 3: I know, and go ahead.

1215
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 2: I just wanted to throw the letters PFF out there

1216
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 2: to see if.

1217
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 4: You have I know you did, and I know what

1218
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:51,880
Speaker 4: you're trying to do. You're trying to get me angry,

1219
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:53,479
Speaker 4: and I'm not going to do that on your show today.

1220
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 4: I'm not going to I'm not going to be angry

1221
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 4: Cole today. But the staff continuity I think is important.

1222
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 4: That's that's where the understanding Tennessee perfect example what you're

1223
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 4: just reverencing from a statistical standpoint. If you develop different

1224
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 4: skills professionally, and not just you, but anybody watching this,

1225
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 4: whether you are an accountant or you're in sales, and

1226
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 4: they give you a new line of products to go

1227
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:18,440
Speaker 4: sell because you went and did training on this product,

1228
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 4: you would feel like that's a benefit, right Like if

1229
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 4: you now you go to New York and do studio stuff,

1230
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 4: right like that, that's a benefit because you have added

1231
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,400
Speaker 4: that to your resume, different things you're capable of doing.

1232
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 4: Tennessee added something to their resume in the offseason, and

1233
00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 4: that is being able to win a different style fight

1234
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:39,960
Speaker 4: while operating on offense, physicality, running the football game control,

1235
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 4: ball control, staying out of high risk situations, allowing your

1236
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 4: opponent to have more pressure on them because you can

1237
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 4: play that way, and all of a sudden, everybody's pee

1238
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 4: in their pants because it doesn't look exactly the way

1239
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 4: they thought it needs to look, or they probably they

1240
00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:57,480
Speaker 4: wanted it to look, or like you said, certain people

1241
00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:59,919
Speaker 4: don't grade them in a certain way that they once did.

1242
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 4: That being said, if I develop a new skill, you

1243
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 4: anybody else watching this, we celebrate that.

1244
00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 3: We like that.

1245
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,479
Speaker 4: But with some of these you mentioned statistics going down

1246
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 4: in certain categories, and that's kind of what got me

1247
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:16,040
Speaker 4: going on this. It can be of benefit for you

1248
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 4: to do other things well that take a little bit

1249
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 4: away from how much you try to do those other

1250
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 4: things you used to do all the time, probably because

1251
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 4: you had to do those things.

1252
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 3: So look at.

1253
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,560
Speaker 4: Certain teams that way also that don't have to live

1254
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,320
Speaker 4: in one house or one neighborhood. They have the vacation

1255
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 4: home and they have the weekend home at the lake

1256
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,760
Speaker 4: that they can also go to. As a major benefit

1257
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 4: to how they might have to win football games down

1258
00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:39,520
Speaker 4: the road.

1259
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 1: Just a great comment here, and I don't have time

1260
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:44,440
Speaker 1: for you to respond. I just wanted to let you

1261
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,000
Speaker 1: know in the live chat that someone chimed in and said,

1262
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:51,919
Speaker 1: Kublick is wrong here. Transferring is good, sir? What game

1263
00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 1: are you going to be at that? No context, no context,

1264
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 1: You're just wrong. Transferring is good, always and forever. Where

1265
00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 1: are you this weekend?

1266
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 4: I believe money transfers are excellent, and anytime they come

1267
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:04,600
Speaker 4: my way, I'm a big fan of them. I will

1268
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 4: be in Columbia, Missouri this weekend, very interested with a

1269
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 4: lot of aspects of that team and the Oklahoma team

1270
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 4: that's going to be going there. That Oklahoma defense still

1271
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 4: playing great football, trying to get the offense going a

1272
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 4: little bit more under Joe John Finley, and obviously the

1273
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:20,360
Speaker 4: quarterback offense situation at MISSOO gonna be interesting to watch.

1274
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 4: Missouri one of those teams you're talking about technically not

1275
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:26,400
Speaker 4: out of this thing, but for some reason, everybody's saying no.

1276
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 4: But if they went out, you're sitting there telling me

1277
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:30,000
Speaker 4: you guarantee they don't have a spot.

1278
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say that.

1279
01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 1: Well, model kind of likes Oklahoma this weekend, so maybe

1280
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:35,600
