1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Solid Verbal home that for me. I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: a man, I'm for I've heard so many players say, well,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: I want to be happy. You want to be happy

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: for a day? Da state? Is that? Woo woof? And

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: Dan and Tye.

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: Welcome back to the Solid Verbal boys and girls. My

7
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: name is ty Hilda Brandt. That fine gentleman over there

8
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: as always Dan Rubinstein. This episode all were episodes driven

9
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 2: by our good friends over at Geico, Dan Rubinstein. Week

10
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,959
Speaker 2: nine officially in the books, Sir, how you doing.

11
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: Better than wake for a second half offense? You had

12
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,959
Speaker 1: to say it right out of the shoot. You had

13
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 1: to say it. I am here. I don't even think

14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 1: we can talk about the bottom of the acc as

15
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: an entity. It's just Clemson, North Carolina, and I wanted

16
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: to get into that first and foremost. Not really, but

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: I'm okay. Ty. You're always a site for sore eyes.

18
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: You look resplendent in a button down, collared shirt. You've

19
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 1: got a great night of sleep. You're looking business casual.

20
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here in a T shirt. If you're watching

21
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: this live on verbalers dot Com, you're seeing this. But

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 1: it's always a joy to be with you on Sunday morning.

23
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: You know that, and you as well.

24
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: Look, we got a great batch of calls that I'm

25
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 2: going to play later on in the show if you

26
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: stop by to hear your reverbs. We addressed week nine

27
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 2: on the preview show as step Up Saturday or as

28
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 2: Slay the Dragon Saturday. Really, whatever you were into, you

29
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 2: could go with, because there were a bunch of big

30
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 2: matchups in the end. I came out of this last

31
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 2: night feeling like, Yeah, this is a shut up Tie Saturday.

32
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 2: Shut up Tie. Yeah, shut up tie. Baylor is not

33
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: losing to Texas Tech.

34
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: Shut up tie.

35
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 2: It's not like Penn State is going to actually beat

36
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 2: Ohio State. Not that I honestly believe that, but shut

37
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: up tie. It's not like Florida is going to hang

38
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: quote unquote hang with Georgia. All these things that I

39
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: think we constructed maybe late at night, staring at the ceiling,

40
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: hoping for things. In week nine, a lot of it

41
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 2: didn't come true. We got a lot of what I

42
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: thought was very unsurprising, what was very expected from some

43
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: of the best teams in college football.

44
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I did mention Oklahoma State in losing and

45
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: being shut out in the most pronounced way as a

46
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: top ten team by a non top ten team in

47
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: like sixty years. Yes, it was a sit down tie,

48
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: shut up tie, So what tie kind of Saturday. And

49
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: that's great because I'm sure there have been three and

50
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: a half to four and a half versions of that

51
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: with my picks, and that's okay, because we put ourselves

52
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: out there to do we do that's important. We speak

53
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: with our chests, we sign our names to our very

54
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: bad picks, and that happens. I don't even know where

55
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 1: to start with this one, so I will let you,

56
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: I will defer to you. But this this was Waldewall entertaining.

57
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: For me, it was wald Wall entertaining. Why don't we

58
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: start with there? For ball?

59
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: Or top ten which dropped last morning. If you are

60
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: listening wondering how can you be part of this poll,

61
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 2: go and sign up at Verbaalers dot com. You not

62
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: only support our show, but you can make your voice

63
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: heard with respect to our top ten. After week nine,

64
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 2: it looks like this Georgia and Tennessee one and two,

65
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 2: which is wild because they play each other in Athens

66
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 2: next weekend. We will talk about that game in due time,

67
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 2: but just kind of keep that in the back of

68
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 2: your mind, like, wow, this is coming. Also three and

69
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 2: four Ohio State and Michigan. That game also a few

70
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: weeks away, but likely that they're going to remain on

71
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 2: this collision course towards one another for the remaining I

72
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: don't know, three weeks before we get to that big

73
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 2: Week thirteen matchup Clemson and Alabama five and six. Clemson

74
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: and Alabama both with monster games this coming weekend. Clemson

75
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: may be less so on the road at Notre Dame

76
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 2: at night. We talk about that one. Alabama a big

77
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 2: SEC West contest on the road again at night in

78
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: Death Valley against LSU. Rounding out our top ten, we've

79
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 2: got number seven TCU, number eight organ your Oregon Ducks,

80
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 2: Number nine USC sort of quasi escape Tucson. We'll talk

81
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 2: about that one momentarily, yep. And number ten you see

82
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 2: LA so contingent to pack twelve teams rounding out the

83
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 2: top ten. Clumping of teams, let's say, clogging up the

84
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 2: works to the top four.

85
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 1: If you are experiencing any team clumping, do see a

86
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: medical professional?

87
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 2: Any surprises in seeing that top ten? No, I don't

88
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 2: have huge issue with it. I have issues with certain

89
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 2: teams and what that's going to look like down the

90
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: line when they play bigger and better teams. But in

91
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: terms of how we see UCLA might be a.

92
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: Little bit high at the moment after what they did

93
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: to Oregon, how they performed against a top ten team,

94
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: But otherwise no, I'm good with it. I especially maybe

95
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: we can start in the SEC because of Florida, Georgia

96
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: and Tennessee whatever. By It's great to see Tennessee in

97
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: that spot. It's great to have that usual team that

98
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: has been far on the outside looking in be squarely

99
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: in the velvet rope area of the college football universe.

100
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 2: And it will be of particular interest to see what

101
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 2: happens on Tuesday evening when the first set of playoff

102
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: rankings comes out. I just Tennessee would be should be

103
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 2: part of that.

104
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 1: Heay, what happened, But let's start with what happened and

105
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: what happened in the Florida Georgia big rivalry game.

106
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 2: Florida won this game. Excuse me, Florida covered this.

107
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I was like, Holy hell, what game

108
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 1: did I watch? I'm not prepared for this episode.

109
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: Florida won this game in one sense, but very much

110
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 2: not in another. Georgia won the game forty two to twenty.

111
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 2: They went up twenty eight to three at half after

112
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: giving a touchdown to a bunch of their key contributors.

113
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: Right we have Edwards and Macintosh and Bowers and Mconkee,

114
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: all those guys getting in on the action, much of

115
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: what you'd expect. Florida fought back, though valiantly for those

116
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 2: of us who had Florida plus twenty two and a

117
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 2: half or plus twenty three. At what point the Gators

118
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: pulled within a score late in the third quarter twenty

119
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 2: eight to twenty a nice seventy eight yard touchdown grab

120
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 2: and run from Xavier Henderson. But then Georgia stopped playing

121
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 2: with its food a term we've used to your time

122
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: and again on the show. Stop playing with their food.

123
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: They poured it on in the final couple moments of

124
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 2: the game with two scores, ended up winning by twenty

125
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 2: two points down the stretch. Down the stretch, Georgia looked

126
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 2: really good, putting this game out of reach. The issue, though,

127
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: is three turnovers, and whenever you're talking about the Georgia Bulldogs,

128
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 2: of course you're splitting hairs trying to find things that

129
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 2: are wrong. Everyone's trying to find something that's wrong with

130
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 2: the thing that otherwise is pretty good.

131
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: Right.

132
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 2: The three turnovers, though, are of note, especially going into

133
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: a week where we're gonna have to square off against Tennessee,

134
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: because that is not an offense. It's not Florida's offense.

135
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 2: The Tennessee offense is not one you want to give

136
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 2: extra opportunities. You don't want to give them three extra

137
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: drives next week that could definitely have ramifications in this one.

138
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: They get away with it. I guess it's not that

139
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: big of a deal.

140
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: But even in the postgame comments Kirby smart as these

141
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 2: coaches are wont to do, they point out all of

142
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 2: the flaws that immediately got stuck in their craw and

143
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 2: I think that will be the only thing really on

144
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 2: the Georgia side that you would look at and Sarah,

145
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 2: I think you do improve that.

146
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: Isn't it amazing that not? Was it? Two years ago?

147
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: Kyle Trask lit up this Georgia team, this Georgia program,

148
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: And now we are coming away from this game saying, well,

149
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: Georgia won by three touchdowns, But what's going on with

150
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: the dolls? They just be Florida by three touchdowns, should

151
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: we be a little bit worse. That's an incredible turn

152
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: of events to get lit up by Kyle Trask and

153
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: Dan Mull and Kyle Pitts and all that. Yeah, you're

154
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: not wrong. The fact that Georgia came out the way

155
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: that they did, so confidently and so assured of their

156
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: game plan and so bad balanced and sets and Bennett

157
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: making plays, and the defense obviously making plays and really

158
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: roughing up Florida early. Florida if we get nothing going

159
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: on offense early in this game was twenty eight to

160
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: three quickly, right, Florida scored three points in the first

161
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: half of this game. And so I think we're basically

162
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: seeing stretches of Georgia looking human, and that is kind

163
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: of shocking after last year. And I think we just

164
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: need to look at Georgia as its own thing this year,

165
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: because it's not fair to judge Georgia against what they

166
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: were last year to me, because they were just so

167
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: above and beyond. So Georgia is a really strong team.

168
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: They are among the country's best. They are not an

169
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: A plus perfect team every minute of every game. That

170
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: was my takeaway that you can beat a rival at

171
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: a neutral site, even though it's a rival with a

172
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: first year coach, even if it's a flawed rival, a

173
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: rival with its own successful baggage by three touchdowns, You

174
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: got to at a certain point, if you're a Georgia fan,

175
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: or if you cover the sport nationally, or you just

176
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: enjoy the sport nationally, say it's pretty good. Yeah, nice

177
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: little Saturday for the dogs. Nice little I don't even

178
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 1: have a sound for what they did here. It was

179
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: like they were cooking a steak, They let it rest,

180
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: and then they ate it. That was what happened here.

181
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: I don't have someone to put a sound together for that,

182
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: be my guest. But forty two to twenty your final

183
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: score here. As Georgia goes into a big week against Tennessee.

184
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 1: Maybe Tennessee wasn't looking ahead to the Georgia game, as

185
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: I tried to tell you.

186
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 2: Maybe, yeah, maybe Tennessee was not looking ahead.

187
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: Shut up. Tie.

188
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 2: Tennessee wins forty four to six. Damn, this one was

189
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 2: not even close. No, Tennessee just absolutely obliterated the Kentucky Wildcats,

190
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 2: both on offense, as they often do, but also on defense.

191
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: Two hundred and five total yards for the Cats. Will

192
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: Levis excuse me, first round prospect Will Levis No. Ninety

193
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 2: eight yards pass with three interceptions. They basically turned him

194
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 2: into Spencer Peatris.

195
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: Spencer Peatris had a better day than the Lews did yesterday.

196
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 2: Hendon Hooker missed six throws. Another monster game for Jalen Hyatt,

197
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: who is starting to creep into the Heisman discussion as

198
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 2: Hendon Hooker continues his run as Tennessee quarterback. It is

199
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: fully shaping into an SEC Saturday next weekend in Week

200
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: ten because of not just the Tennessee Georgia game, but

201
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 2: also the Bam LSU one that I mentioned earlier. But

202
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: there really isn't much you can say here, Dan, This

203
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 2: was a quick game in the sense that Tennessee asserted

204
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 2: its dominance rather quickly. I was watching, waiting, hoping that

205
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: Kentucky would mount more of a comeback, more of a charge,

206
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 2: put up more of a fight. They had nothing. They

207
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 2: had nothing here, no answer for Tennessee. And I came

208
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 2: away from this one feeling like, first off, Tennessee's getting better. Secondly,

209
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: wondering if the big win over Bama a few weeks

210
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,959
Speaker 2: ago now now was some sort of watershed moment for

211
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 2: the Balls in that they got over that hump and

212
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: now they are able to ascend to some greater height,

213
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 2: almost like Neo at the end of the matrix. He's

214
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 2: just waiting for something. Was that moment the Alabama went

215
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: for Tennessee because they were awesome. They were just awesome

216
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 2: in this game.

217
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they just sort of did what they've been

218
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: doing on offense. They were balanced, they were fast, they

219
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: were going downfield. Obviously, Cedric Tillman comes up, comes back,

220
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: not a huge factor in this specific game, but certainly

221
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: adds gravity to the situation that you have to pay

222
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: attention to him if you're in that Kentucky secondary, and

223
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: Kentucky secondary had its hands absolutely full. They got torched

224
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: and you saw like sort of the delay routes and

225
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: the crossing routes and Jalen Hyatt, you just creeping into

226
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 1: the Eismen conversation, just creeping into the end zone over

227
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: and over again for Tennessee. And this Kentucky defense has

228
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: been their strength. They were on their heels the entire time.

229
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: They did not look prepared for the tempo, They did

230
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: not look prepared for the speed. Very few teams are

231
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: and will Alabama was not fully ready with a better

232
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: secondary than what Kentucky puts on the field, but no

233
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: Tennessee is operating. I saw the comparisons. I think it

234
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: was Stu Mandel from the Athletic talking about how there

235
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: are comparisons creeping in, like you said, Jalen Hyat and

236
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: the Heisman conversation about comparisons to the twenty nineteen LSU team,

237
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: which given the magnitude and the manner in which Tennessee

238
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: is scoring and given that, you know, the defense is

239
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: has shown signs of life and holding their own like

240
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: they did against LSU, now what they did against Kentucky.

241
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: I don't think this year's Tennessee defense is where that

242
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: year's it was different. Was it not calling that LSU

243
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 1: defense but showing signs of life this Tennessee defense as

244
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: the season progresses. If you remember they had the back

245
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: and forth game against pitt obviously back and forth against Alabama,

246
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: but getting more and more stops as they're getting healthier,

247
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: And I mean, it's this year's even though Alabama LSU

248
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: is a very big game. Georgia Tennessee seems to be

249
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: the way that we always used to joke the game

250
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: of the year of the millennium yeah, yeah, no, it's

251
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: it's a huge game. These two teams have.

252
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 2: Been a bit on a collision course, if you would

253
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 2: believe a lot of the preseason hype. I think we

254
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: were all pretty high on Tennessee. We just weren't sure

255
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 2: how high we were allowed to be. You know, I

256
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: felt like there was some risk to really putting yourself

257
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 2: out there and going all in on the balls because

258
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 2: there were questions, right there were questions about the offensive

259
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 2: line and the defense, and you know, some of that

260
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 2: stuff is still there, but the offense is playing at

261
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: such a high level right now. As you said, a

262
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 2: good Kentucky defense just seemed ill prepared. They had no

263
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: answers for it. They were getting confused. They weren't prepared

264
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 2: for the speed. So it'll be interesting next week will

265
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 2: be very, very interesting when Tennessee goes Athens.

266
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm excited. Will Levis did not have himself a knight.

267
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: Will Levis was completely under fire, confused by the Tennessee defense. Yeah,

268
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: that was that was wal Towall dominance from the balls.

269
00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 2: Not a really nice kid and a good prospect around.

270
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: Pick okay, whatever, not my concern.

271
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 2: Ohio State forty four, penn State thirty one. How much

272
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 2: of this game?

273
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: Did you watch all of it? I watched a.

274
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 2: Postgame video with our friend Dave Jones from penlive dot com.

275
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 2: H We've had him on the show for years. You

276
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 2: can go back and find a bunch of interviews with Dave.

277
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 2: I thought he said it best. You think you might

278
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: diffuse all the Ohio State bombs, and then boom, there's

279
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: one you didn't know about, right, and then boom there's

280
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 2: one you didn't expect, and then there's another one that

281
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 2: you didn't expect, and suddenly it's over and you're just sort.

282
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: Of dazed and confused.

283
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's kind of what happened here for Penn State.

284
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 2: I mean, between a defensive end going off who was

285
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 2: a highly regarded prospect, and between Marvin Harrison Junior, then

286
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 2: Trey Henderson popping you and CJ. Stroud throwing for three

287
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 2: fifty despite not having his best game of the year.

288
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 2: Ohio State just has so many weapons on offense, so

289
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 2: many ways that they can and beat you, and they

290
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: can do it quickly in the blink of an eye.

291
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: Penn State in this game, I thought played pretty well.

292
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 2: The four turnovers from Schwan Clifford to side. Not ideal,

293
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: not ideal. But we talked a lot about if we're

294
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 2: constructing this universe in which Penn State actually beats Ohio State,

295
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: how do.

296
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: They do it.

297
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 2: It goes without saying they got to play the best

298
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: game they've played all year, maybe the best game they

299
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 2: played in the last five years because of this offense.

300
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 2: Penn State in this one got about as close to

301
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: that as you would expect. I thought they played pretty well.

302
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 2: It still was not enough because of the turnovers on

303
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 2: some level, but ultimately just because Ohio State is really

304
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 2: freaking good, because they've got all of those dudes across

305
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 2: the board who at a moment's notice, bam bam, yeah,

306
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 2: can make you pay for just the slightest oversight on defense.

307
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: That wasn't even the issue for me. Like on a

308
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: certain level, yes, of course we think Ohio State is

309
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: going to get theirs eventually, that no defense is deep

310
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: enough to shut them down for four full quarters in

311
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: the way that Penn State was doing it. The problem

312
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 1: is the Penn State offense, even when they were operating,

313
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: they were not nearly doing enough to hold up their

314
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: end of the bargain. That the reason turnovers are so killer.

315
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: This is you know, the underthink express this is the

316
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: captain obvious. Thing is you just put your defense in

317
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: such a bind that they can't hold on forever. Penn

318
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: State does not go three deep with excellence at every

319
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: position on their defense, especially when they're given short fields

320
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: because of turnovers. The story here is Ohio State one

321
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: in new ways. They won with defense, They won with

322
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: star power and the way that we saw them do

323
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: with Chase Young or the way we saw them do

324
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: with Joey Bosa, but haven't seen for a minute to

325
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: have that kind of superstar performance from JT Tuey Malau.

326
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: I hope I got that somewhere in the vicinity of

327
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: right who. By the way, JT is not short for

328
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: anything other than his actual first name, which starts with Jay's.

329
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: I think it's Jalen Touey Malau and then he just

330
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: sort of went by JT. I learned that because obviously

331
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: he was the star of yesterday. Yeah.

332
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 2: He had two interceptions, one that he ran back for

333
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 2: a touchdown.

334
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: Yep, force fumble, yep.

335
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 2: The sack at two sacks, the force fumble. Yeah, I mean,

336
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,479
Speaker 2: just a huge game from him. Ohio State always has

337
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 2: that game change. Seems like every year when Penn State

338
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 2: plays Ohio State, Ohio State's got that game changer along

339
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 2: the front seven that impacts the game in a really

340
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 2: outsized way, and it was JT.

341
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: It was absolutely JT. I didn't love Ohio States play

342
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: calling an overall game plan in the first half. It

343
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: was a lot of weird short stuff and running and

344
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: obviously Mayan Williams gets hurt early on, which made them

345
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: a little bit more dimensional in the running game with

346
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: only Trey Henderson. It's just different. It's different than what

347
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: they've been used to having in the backfield. CJ. Stroud

348
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: going with a lot of short stuff instead of downfield

349
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: for longer stretches of that game. I don't know if

350
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: that's a Ryan Day issue. I don't know if that's

351
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 1: a whatever issue. But Ohio State just didn't seem like themselves,

352
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: most of which was because of a very, very good

353
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 1: and pressuring Penn State defense. But the fact remains, if

354
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: Sean Clifford is going to step back and throw a

355
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 1: screen pass and throw it directly into the palms of

356
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 1: a defensive end, this wasn't j T. Twoey Malout jumping

357
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: twelve feet in the air to tip this ball. This

358
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: was him making a heads up, well coached play of

359
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: getting his hands in the air and into a passing lane.

360
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: But it was a predetermined throw on that screen that

361
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: it didn't matter who was in the way of the receiver.

362
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 1: That's where Sean Clifford was throwing it too. It was

363
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 1: bad mistake. It was, you know, putting the ball in

364
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: the wrong place. When JT. Twey Malout dropped into coverage,

365
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 1: it was obviously that he got stripsacked later on in

366
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: the game. Uh, it was just it was It was

367
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: the case and the issue of an offense that didn't

368
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: really know what it wanted to do and then leaned

369
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: into what it didn't do well into high leverage moments

370
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: when that like power t formation on those.

371
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 2: Power the power listen, fourth and short. Just run a toss.

372
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 2: Run a toss to the number one five star recruit

373
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 2: out of Pennsylvania and let him run. Let him run

374
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 2: for one yard. He can get that. And I've seen

375
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 2: the numbers on it. The toss on fourth and one

376
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 2: usually worked pretty well. Just run the toss, don't get

377
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 2: cute with it. I don't know what the hell that was.

378
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 2: I will push back a little bit though on the

379
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 2: Penn State offensive front. You're not wrong. A lot of

380
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 2: what you're saying is not wrong. But did you also

381
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: not scoff at the mere notion that Penn State would

382
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: move the quote unquote move the ball on this Ohio

383
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 2: State defense. Obviously they did not win, but they outgained

384
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,919
Speaker 2: Ohio State in this football game. The offense moved the

385
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 2: ball reasonably well. Parker Washington. I don't know where they

386
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 2: would have been in this game if not for Parker Washington.

387
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: I think that's right.

388
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: Who had an incredible effort and certainly was I think

389
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 2: the driving force behind this offense taking the lid off

390
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: the defense making some big plays here. But the offense

391
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 2: as a whole did okay, maybe better than we expected

392
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 2: its to.

393
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: It's easier to outgain a team when your offense gives

394
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: the defense short fields in which they can't physically gain

395
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: a huge number of yards. If the turnovers are giving

396
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 1: them short fields and pick sixes, tie, that's how that worked.

397
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 2: Penn State defense played pretty well in this game. That's later,

398
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 2: the Penn State defense played pretty well. There was again

399
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 2: that Pinata moment that we talked about with the Michigan game.

400
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 2: Which happened a little bit more in slow motion in

401
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,959
Speaker 2: the Michigan game. In this one, it happened all at

402
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 2: once where Penn State was in it. They were leading

403
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 2: in the.

404
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 1: Fourth quarter, yeah, twenty one to sixteen, and.

405
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 2: Again found a way to give it away. And that's

406
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 2: been a story for Penn State in this matchup, in

407
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 2: some other matchups as well, where they're clearly in the game,

408
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 2: but they don't have what it takes to get over

409
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 2: that home, they don't have whatever it takes to get

410
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 2: the dub and then suddenly, all at once, it gets

411
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 2: away from them.

412
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: Happened again, twenty points in six game minutes. Was that

413
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: the final stretch of yeah, well they covered, they did cover.

414
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: There's that. Yeah, it's the problem. It's a stretch issue

415
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: for Penn State. It's a stretch issue that you know,

416
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: to start a game at home with that frenzied crowd,

417
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: with the defense playing as well as it did, that

418
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: Penn State's offense was not up to the task. A

419
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: lot of short stuff, a lot of okay, let's get

420
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: four yards on third and three whatever, and not really

421
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: testing Ohio State. And then when they did they had success.

422
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: But it's that stretch stuff that you can't afford to

423
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,479
Speaker 1: do with an advantageous situation, advantageous environment in a game

424
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: where you're gonna need points. Didn't they kick a field

425
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: goal at a certain point That disappointed me a little bit.

426
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: I think they were down thirty to twenty one on

427
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: like fourth and four in the red zone, and like, well,

428
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: let's get to thirty to twenty four, Like that's what

429
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: you think is going to win you this game in

430
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: this moment, that's what you think.

431
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I mean I don't know. I mean we could,

432
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 2: we could second guess the game decisions one for one

433
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 2: if we want to. It's more of a recurring theme

434
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 2: with Franklin. They're in kind of these fringe spaces in

435
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 2: the football game where they need to make a big decision,

436
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 2: and it just it doesn't feel like they're doing anything confidently.

437
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. There were moments in the screen where

438
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 1: they were aggressive.

439
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 2: There were other moments in this game where they were

440
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 2: maybe more conservative than they shouldn't be. That's probably a

441
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 2: good example of one. But nonetheless, well, how to say

442
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 2: it was a better team I think is the big

443
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 2: takeaway here, definitely, And as you said, the big takeaway

444
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 2: for a lot of folks should be that Ohio State

445
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 2: want in new ways. It's not unexpected that they would

446
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 2: go on the road and win, but I thought this

447
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 2: was really impressive. They got the best that Penn State

448
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 2: had to offer and they came away with the dub.

449
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 2: Let's go to another top ten team on the road,

450
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 2: another undefeated team on the road and talk about TCU. Yeah,

451
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 2: weird game, Yeah, really weird game. TCU wins forty one

452
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 2: to thirty one on the road in Morgantown against West Virginia. Interestingly,

453
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 2: they had lost four in a row to West Virginia,

454
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 2: so they broke that losing streak. Two halves that were

455
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 2: very different. The first half was a track meet, a

456
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,120
Speaker 2: combined six hundred and thirty seven yards and forty eight points.

457
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 2: The second half was a little bit different in that

458
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 2: it had something for everybody.

459
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: Let's say, yeah, a few.

460
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 2: Chances for West Virginia to tie the game or take

461
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 2: the lead again. You see the potential, I guess with

462
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 2: the Mountaineers Dan, but you also see the inconsistency. You

463
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 2: see the big moments. You see them with the chance

464
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 2: to tie it going three and out, gaining negative three

465
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 2: and having to punt the lay one. Yeah, giving the

466
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 2: ball back to TCU, TCU score, get touchdown, putting the

467
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 2: game on ice.

468
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: By the way, don't don't gloss over one of the

469
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 1: worst beats gambling wise at the end of that game,

470
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: getting a free play on an off side and getting

471
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 1: a touchdown at it. If you had West Virginia, I

472
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: think it was plus seven and a half. Yeah, brutal

473
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: stake to the heart. Sorry to the front will cover. Yeah,

474
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: sorry dogos, sorry dog goes TCU eight oh. For the

475
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: first time since twenty fifteen, Dan, this is viewed as

476
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 1: a losable game by many in Vegas. We talked about

477
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: it on the preview. A lot of the sharp betters

478
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: were in on West Virginia, so bad beat for them

479
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: for sure. What did we learn from TCU? If anything,

480
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: here we saw more big plays. We know they lived

481
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: by the sword, die by the sword. To some extent,

482
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: those big plays were there, at least in the first half.

483
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: Second half. This was, you know, another one of these games.

484
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 2: They keep finding themselves in these spots here late where

485
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 2: they have to not necessarily come from behind. They didn't

486
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 2: have to in this one, but spots late that are

487
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 2: really testing their metal and again they make it work.

488
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: Eight. No, I think it's the same thing, winning in

489
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: new in different ways, especially after what we saw or

490
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 1: really didn't see from the TCU defense last year. I

491
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: thought they got more aggressive over the course of the

492
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: second half against West Virginia and really put pressure on JT.

493
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 1: Daniels in the West Virginia much maligned offensive line. Kendre

494
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 1: Miller is an absolute joy to watch at running back.

495
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: This low key, by the way, has been an incredibly

496
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: overwhelming running back season in college football all over the sport,

497
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: and Kendre Miller is a representative along of course with

498
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: Bjeon Robinson and Deuce Vaughan. Richard Reese at Baylor obviously

499
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: has been a revelation, but just in the big twelve

500
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: in the sport and beyond, so Kendre Miller has done

501
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: a terrific job. Obviously, you know, losing Zach Evans was

502
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: thought to be a bigger deal than it has turned

503
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: out to be for the Frogs and just heartbreaking for

504
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: West Virginia, I'm sure because the receivers made plays. CJ.

505
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 1: Donaldson made plays, the defense came up big at times.

506
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: West Virginia did get that short field on one of

507
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 1: the most egregious special teams refereeing calls of all time.

508
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: Bad day for refs yesterday, real bad day when a

509
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: West Virginia player blocked a TCU guy into his own

510
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,360
Speaker 1: punt returner and it was reviewed and eventually ruled. They're like, well,

511
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: TCU touched it and West Virginia recovered it. Like what,

512
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 1: that's what you gleaned? So that was something. This was

513
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: the game along with I think it was Illinois and

514
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: Nebraska that I mentioned where I was like, this team

515
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: appears to be really good. If they are excellent, or

516
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 1: if they are a fully realized team, or if they

517
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 1: are maximizing their potential, their potential, they will win this

518
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 1: very difficult situational matchup. TCU did it. Proud of you, Frogs.

519
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 1: You are a very very good team with who they

520
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 1: have Baylor left. Yes, the revivalry is left, and that's

521
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 1: that's looming very large. Their November is Texas Tech next

522
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: week at home. Then they've got back to back road

523
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,919
Speaker 1: trips to Texas and Baylor before coming back home to

524
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 1: close things out against Iowa State. Yeah. I love the

525
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 1: Big twelve. Big twelve is incredible, so good for the frogs. Yeah,

526
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 1: where are we going next? Let's stay in the Big twelve.

527
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: Let's just round out the Big twelve quickly. Kansas State

528
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: forty eight, Oklahoma State zero. Guess who just got.

529
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 2: Holy crep Dan, Holy holy whatever. Oklahoma State couldn't get

530
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 2: anything going at all. They had two hundred and seventeen

531
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 2: yards of offense. Spencer Sanders thirteen of twenty six with

532
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 2: a pick. Meanwhile, Will Howard, we got a million tweets

533
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 2: from people saying that Will Howard the pride of Downingtown.

534
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,399
Speaker 2: Mind you needs to be one of our dudes in

535
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 2: the dood Alerts segment that we do a little bit

536
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 2: later on.

537
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: We will do that.

538
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 2: Of course, four touchdowns in the first half, dudees Vaughn

539
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 2: went off. It was thirty five to nothing at half.

540
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,199
Speaker 2: Wow wow, I did not expect this.

541
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: You're doing like the Owen Wilson Wow wow wow. So

542
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 1: this is a stand up Dan Saturday game, because this

543
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: was one of the easier games to preview in my

544
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: mind going into it, as I pat myself on the

545
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: back saying, Oklahoma State with the Texas layover going at Manhattan, Kansas, Like,

546
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: we've seen this kind of situation before in the Big twelve,

547
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: especially and that I liked Kansas State a good deal, especially,

548
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 1: I said, Remember, I said, man, it's weird to say,

549
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,640
Speaker 1: especially if Will Howard is healthy, because he was beat

550
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: up a little bit the week prior Pride of Downingtown.

551
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: Howard Pride to Downingtown. Not a huge arm, but throws

552
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: a touch in his confident and maybe not killer. It's

553
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: not Bryant Monee's pop gun arm. No no, no, no, no, no, no no.

554
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: But he had been a liability before this year, and

555
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: I think the plan was for him to red shirt,

556
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: obviously with Kansas State bringing and Adrian Martinez, so he

557
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: stepped in so admirably. Obviously, Malik Knowles and Philip Brooks

558
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: have been I mean, everybody I think that watches Kansas State,

559
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: certainly more than I do, knew that they are very

560
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: promising receivers, game changing type receivers, and the passing game

561
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: just hasn't always been consistent. With the passing game as

562
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: open as it was at times against Oklahoma State and

563
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: then opening up lanes for Deuce Vaughn. This is one

564
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: of the more dangerous second half teams in the country

565
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 1: to me, and they are still in line. I think

566
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: they control their ability to take on TCU for a

567
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 1: rematch in North Texas. I believe at the moment, so

568
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: they're in a good spot. And I love that you

569
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: talk about who did you reference about, oh, Davy Jones

570
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,719
Speaker 1: with like, as soon as you feel like you've diffused everything,

571
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: something else pops up. I think Derek Mason after the

572
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: game talked about like sitting in a canoe and seeing

573
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: leaks everywhere and then realizing all ten fingers in all

574
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: ten tos were accounted for and you're still sinking. That

575
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: was the feeling. Okhoma State is beat up, Spencer Sanders

576
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: is beat up. There's still no running game to speak

577
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: of in still Water or anywhere Oklahoma State plays. And

578
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: so I think there's a really good team that has

579
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: very clear flaws and situationally wrong day, wrong team, wrong

580
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: time of the season. Hold on hands of State, hold on,

581
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: hold on, hold on did away with them? What? What

582
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: forty eight to zip? I know, man, I know you

583
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: can say what you want about Alahoma State out of

584
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: the beat up and Dan, I'm just trying to add

585
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: context to the situation. That's all.

586
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 2: They were six and one back in the top ten

587
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 2: with plenty of season in front of them, plenty of

588
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 2: opportunity to jump back into that conversation. Really, whatever conversation

589
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 2: they want. Playoff thing, still doable, the Big twelve obviously

590
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 2: still doable on some level. Yeah, this game was a

591
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 2: sad fart for Oklahoma State.

592
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: That's what this was. This is a disappearing act and

593
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: this was inexcusable.

594
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 2: Forty eight nothing. Thanks for coming out, guys, thanks for playing.

595
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: That's real bad. Did you re see Mike Gundhy's sons,

596
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: the backup quarterback for Oklahoma State. Did you see his interception? Yeah,

597
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: oh my god, the worst kind of interception when you

598
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: try to do something unorthodox and fling the ball backhanded

599
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: and like, oh nope, that's going to be an issue.

600
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: Kansas State wall to wall. I've used that phrase already

601
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 1: this morning a couple of times. Just an absolute demolition

602
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: of the Pokes.

603
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 2: Let's round out the Big twelve quickly here, We've got

604
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 2: a lot to get to. Baylor forty five, Texas Tech

605
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 2: seventeen stomped them, Oklahoma twenty seven, Iowa State thirteen. I

606
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: appreciate the reminders from everybody in the Baylor community that

607
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 2: I locked up Texas Tech. I appreciate that reminder. My

608
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 2: question back to the very fine folks with Baylor community. Yeah,

609
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 2: would you rather that I locked up your team? Would

610
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 2: you rather than I locked up your team? Be careful

611
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 2: what you wish for, kind sir, kind madam, because if

612
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 2: you want, if you want, actually, let's just do that

613
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 2: right now.

614
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Todd the week Heady podcasting King Baylor

615
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: minus whatever plus whatever next week against.

616
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 2: Oklahoma on the road. Okay, you wanted it, now you

617
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 2: got it. That's not a bad deal.

618
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,239
Speaker 1: By the way, you putting whatever it is that you

619
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: put into the ether with locking up Baylor or whatever.

620
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: Guess what, the Baylor defense will intercept that too, as

621
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: I did. I know Baron Morton three times Texattech was

622
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: trying everything on offense and that defense, the rond Roberts unit,

623
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: well that's not a great phrase. Wasn't having it. They

624
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: absolutely were not having it. They stomped him on the

625
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: ground on offense. Blake Shapin was fine, but really it

626
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 1: was defense and running and a very comfortable victory. Especially

627
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: they won the sort of second half going away, right.

628
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: They just got stronger and stronger as it went along.

629
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: Can we file a petition henceforth to label all of

630
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 1: Richard Reese's touchdowns as Reese's pieces. I'd love to yeah,

631
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: not a sponsor.

632
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 2: Could be three more Reese's pieces in this game. The

633
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 2: freshman looking really, really good.

634
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: He got twelve on the year.

635
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: The Oklahoma game very quickly. The highlight was the fake

636
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 2: field goal. In the second fakefield goal. I don't know

637
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 2: if I've ever seen that style of fake field goal before,

638
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 2: but this was just our line is better than yours,

639
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 2: and we're going to snap it to the holder and

640
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 2: just hand it off to the kicker who's going to

641
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 2: run like a split zone right up the middle.

642
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. And as he said.

643
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 2: In the postgame, it was like the parting of the

644
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 2: Red Sea. He just went in two yards out touchdown.

645
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: Am I seeing this correct? Because I had this game

646
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 1: on mute above. I think it was Ohio State Penn

647
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: State was happening at the same time. One touchdown drive

648
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: from the offense, is that what I'm saying here. They

649
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: returned an interception to the two yard line and punched

650
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: it in. Then they have the fake field goal, which

651
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: is a touch It's an eventual touchdown, of course, thanks

652
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: to the offense driving the field, but the offense didn't

653
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: punch it in that the fake field goal did. The

654
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 1: offense was fine. They didn't really do much to the air.

655
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: There were some drops that were involved. Eric Gray was good.

656
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: I think he got beat up a little bit. It

657
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: was a nice enough day for the offensive line. Iowa

658
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: A It's offensive nightmare.

659
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 2: It was, yeah, I mean it was a nightmarish type

660
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 2: thing again for Iowa State.

661
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: Three more turnovers, more.

662
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 2: Of a defensive struggle than I expected. I mean, Iowa

663
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 2: State plays decently enough on defense, but did not expect

664
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 2: that it would be this kind of game. Dylan Gabriel

665
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: didn't really have like a banner effort or anything. They

666
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 2: just all I would say with this one with Oklahoma

667
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 2: is they weren't electric on offense, but they weren't quite

668
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 2: as sloppy as we've seen at moments.

669
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: So it was fine.

670
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: It was just a fine win. Oklahoma needed it onto

671
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 2: next week.

672
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: Let me clarify, win your pseudo clunkers, and if you

673
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 1: lose to Texas forty nine to nothing and you only

674
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: beat Iowa State twenty seven to thirteen, or whatever, it

675
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: was great, great, awesome, take it on to next week.

676
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: A win is a win is a win. Which conference

677
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: you want to go to next? Let's go to the ACC?

678
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: What nightmare weird week? A nightmare weird week.

679
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 2: Let me rifle through some of place the results here

680
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 2: and then we can sort of pick and choose. North

681
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 2: Carolina scores twenty eight unanswered after going down ten to

682
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 2: the third quarter to beat Pitt forty two to twenty four.

683
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: We had Louisville, Oh gosh, Louisville.

684
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll come back to this, Louisville on forty eight

685
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 2: twenty one. There is more to discuss on the wake

686
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:31,320
Speaker 2: Forest side. I promise you Notre Dame forty one to

687
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 2: twenty four over the Syracuse Orange Ques through a pick

688
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,959
Speaker 2: six on the very first play of the game, which

689
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,280
Speaker 2: was a bit of a harbinger of things to come.

690
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 2: We had Florida State winning big over Georgia Tech forty

691
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 2: one to sixteen. Miami, Oh god, another one Miami, and

692
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 2: quadruple overtime wins fourteen to twelve over Virginia. One of

693
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,240
Speaker 2: those types of games for the Hurricanes. We had Yukon

694
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 2: knocking off BC thirteen to three. We had a very

695
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 2: excitable reverb that we're going to get to a little

696
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 2: bit later on here in the broadcast, and last but

697
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 2: not least, we had NC State by a twenty two

698
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 2: to twenty one margin on Thursday or Friday earlier.

699
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: In the week. Yeah, I think it was a Thursday

700
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 1: over Virginia Tech. Yeah, so I mean we can start

701
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 1: right there real quick. I think it was.

702
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 2: Was it? MJ.

703
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: Morris came in and was actually really nice in the

704
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 1: second half as they had a really impressive comeback win

705
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: against a Virginia Tech team. Who I mean, this was

706
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,919
Speaker 1: like was it scoreless or three? Nothing? Three? All something

707
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: like that at halftime and then it was kind of explosive.

708
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 1: A ton of just sloppiness from Virginia Tech of course

709
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: in the second half, but really nice performance from NC

710
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 1: State to hang with it after a crazy ugly first half.

711
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 2: Jack Chambers did not have it going in the passing game,

712
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 2: and they bring in MJ. Morris and he was much

713
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 2: better at working the ball down the field. So it'll

714
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 2: be interesting to see what NC State looks like if

715
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 2: he is in fact going to be the guy now

716
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 2: moving forward, because you know there's some big games.

717
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: Frensis State left Pitt North Carolina looked like he was

718
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: going to be like a back and forth slugfest all

719
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: game long, because that's what it kind of was in

720
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: the first half. Keaton Slovas to Jared Wayne Over the

721
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: whole game was really impressive. Is he beIN Akonda? Bancanda

722
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,439
Speaker 1: a bandon Canda? Excuse me? Had his runs as he's

723
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 1: been doing basically all year long. North Carolina kind of

724
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: sluggish in the first half, and weirdly enough, it havoc

725
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 1: plays and stops from the defense in the second half

726
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: led to opportunities for Drake May, who's already one of

727
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,760
Speaker 1: the best four seven quarterbacks in the country. Must be nice,

728
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: Must be nice for North Carolina. I say that, gene

729
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: chiswick baby. I guess I don't know. Pitt's super beat

730
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: up on their offense, Like there's a whole bunch of

731
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: stuff going on with the pit team that doesn't fully

732
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 1: make sense to me into my eyes. But whatever, North

733
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,359
Speaker 1: Carolina really impressive win that was I think at home

734
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: in Chapel was at home. Yeah.

735
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 2: And by the way, just for those of you playing

736
00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 2: along at home on the Drake May unstoppable be He's unbelievable.

737
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 2: He had five more touchdowns. He has a seventy seven

738
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 2: percent completion percentage and now through Week nine a twenty

739
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 2: nine to three touchdown interception ratio. So I've been saying it.

740
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 2: Carolina is an ultra quiet one loss team, and the

741
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 2: remaining schedule is at Virginia, at Wake, Georgia Tech, and

742
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 2: NC State, four very winnable games given the level of

743
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 2: offense that they're playing. So don't sleep on North Carolina.

744
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 2: I won't play the tailor swift here, but don't sleep

745
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: on Carolina as an eleven win team.

746
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 1: I'm already ahead to next year. Ty, We're already onto

747
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: Cincinnati next year because Drake May might be the Heisman

748
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 1: favor going to next year. They open up with South Carolina,

749
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,759
Speaker 1: APP State, and Minnesota to begin the season. That's a

750
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 1: nice little here. I am. Everybody pay attention to me

751
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 1: September for Drake May if he's able to perform elsewhere

752
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: in the ACC. First of all, I don't watch Syracuse

753
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: games when they play in the JMA as closely as

754
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 1: I'd like to, because the angle is the worst camera

755
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: angle and it's so bad. I got my way through it.

756
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:12,919
Speaker 1: But I guess that's sort of the experience of watching

757
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: the Notre Dame offense as well. And you can speak

758
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: to that. A win is a win is a win.

759
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: But man, that was probably not a fun three hours

760
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: of your life. It wasn't well the defense. Watching the

761
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 1: Notre Dame defense is probably really fun.

762
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 2: The offense was fine for the most part. The bright

763
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 2: spot was that the offensive line was dominant, and they've

764
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,240
Speaker 2: been improving. This was a game where they had almost

765
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty yards of the ground both Audric

766
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 2: estimate Logan.

767
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 1: Did say that guy's awesome. Yeah, I like watching him.

768
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, big dude twenty carries a piece. Like they're they're

769
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 2: solely starting to assert their their dominance along the offensive line,

770
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 2: and by that I mean they're just getting better and

771
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 2: more organized. They were clearly better than cuson this game

772
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 2: along that front, and so I wish they would have

773
00:38:56,120 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 2: stuck more with that, but instead they they're just not

774
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 2: good at quarterback, and so anytime they're trying to do

775
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 2: more at quarterback, there are times where the play calling

776
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 2: doesn't help Drew Pine or Drew Pine doesn't help the

777
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 2: play calling. I don't want to keep harping on it

778
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 2: because Notre Dame is where they are at this moment.

779
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 2: This is who they're going to have to ride with

780
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 2: the rest of the way. I suspect if they thought

781
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 2: Steve Angelli were better, we would have seen him by now.

782
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 2: But it's just in games like this where they're really

783
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 2: limited by the quarterback play, and they could have had

784
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 2: this game on ice. Early in the third quarter, Cues

785
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 2: is able to get back in it and make it

786
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 2: a one score game. Notre Dame should have been better.

787
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 2: They should have closed this one out stronger. They could

788
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,280
Speaker 2: have had fifty five points I think with a better offense.

789
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 1: But nonetheless, they ran the ball. We'll see what they

790
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: can do next week against Clemson. That'll be a big showing.

791
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: Do you think Marcus Freeman after the game, if he

792
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 1: congratulated Carlos del Rio Wilson went up to and said,

793
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: sounds that's pretty good. Here's my card up, here's my

794
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: email at nd dot edu. He seemed kind of scary

795
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 1: and promising, right. I thought he looked really good. Yeah, yeah,

796
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: this was Notre Dame pushing around Syracuse up front. Syracuse

797
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: is the strength of their defense is confusing teams and

798
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: also the back end and really stepping into passing lanes impressively,

799
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: and Notre Dame just needed to go straight at them.

800
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: Drew Pye, of course, stared down Michael Mayer much more

801
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: often than he should have. But yeah, this game should

802
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: have been thirty five thirteen. Uh, if not for some

803
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 1: fits and starts from the Notre Dame Notre Dame offense

804
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 1: and some predictability from the Notre Dame offense. But look,

805
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: you went on the road and beat a ranked team.

806
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,919
Speaker 1: Syracuse is ranked, right, they were, they were, You're top

807
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 1: fifteen team. Yeah, hard to complain about that. The defense

808
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: seems to be coming together. Who's the rush end once again,

809
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: that's Fosky. See the guy is a Fosky. He's all

810
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 1: over the place. He's a he's a real fun guy

811
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: to watch.

812
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 2: Block two punts last week. All right, talk to me

813
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 2: about Louisville Wake for us, just do it, just do it.

814
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: Just got out of hand. It was as if the

815
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:57,919
Speaker 1: communications between the booth to the quarterback and whoever's wearing

816
00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 1: the headset on defense got twisted.

817
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 2: Holy crap. Forty eight to twenty one was a final score. Yeah,

818
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 2: this game was fourteen to thirteen and a half. Wake

819
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 2: had ten drives in the second half and eight turnovers

820
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 2: eight out of ten, eighty percent of their.

821
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: Drives in the second half went for turnovers. I think

822
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:15,760
Speaker 1: it was six in the third quarter.

823
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had to take six a fumble, a fumble, interception, fumble,

824
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 2: punt pick six fumble interception, then closed out the game

825
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 2: with a touchdown. That was their drive chart. You don't

826
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 2: even have to do it, No, in the second half,

827
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 2: just beautifully horribly executed.

828
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,399
Speaker 1: It's it's basically we've all had that day. We've all

829
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: had that clunker that you just can't win where you

830
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: just got to say, you know what, I just got

831
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,319
Speaker 1: screwed over by the universe and there's nothing I can

832
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: do right. You get fired, and then you get dumped,

833
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: and then you get to your car and there's a ticket,

834
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: then you get a flat tire in a pothole. That

835
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 1: like everything that could have gone wrong went wrong, and

836
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 1: it was just one of those weeks. I still think

837
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: Wake is a pretty good team that just ran into

838
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 1: the wrong universe on the wrong day, and good for

839
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 1: Louisville for taking advantage as good teams do, which I

840
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: think they're now five and three. I don't know if

841
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: they're good, but I think the conversation about Scott Satterfield

842
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 1: got a little bit quieter after beating a rank team

843
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:08,720
Speaker 1: in that manner.

844
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 2: Yes, how does it feel to you as an Oregon

845
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 2: fan knowing that Mario Crystobaal took his talents to South Beach?

846
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 1: Sure, of course, maybe feel a.

847
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 2: Little bit scorn. Maybe not as much now given the

848
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 2: fact that Damn Landing looks pretty good, look pretty comfortable

849
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 2: in his own right now as the head signal caller

850
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 2: for your Ducks. But how does it feel to just

851
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 2: look across the world, look at the box score and

852
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,280
Speaker 2: see fourteen twelve Miami and quadruple overtime.

853
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:43,800
Speaker 1: I can tell you how it feels. Ti punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt,

854
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: field goal, field goal, punt, downs punt, field goal, punt, punt,

855
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: field goal. Oh god, word, overtime and there's just more

856
00:42:54,080 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 1: punting and field goals. Four overtimes over time I was

857
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: to get till forty twelve. I don't throw divorjac in

858
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: every week tie, but when I do, it's for a

859
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:18,800
Speaker 1: good reason. This was horrible. This game was horrible.

860
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,479
Speaker 2: Miami needed a field goal as time expired to tie

861
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 2: the game at six six apiece against Virginia six apiece. Okay,

862
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 2: first off, not a nice win, but a win nonetheless,

863
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 2: So you'll take the win. If you're a Miami fan,

864
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 2: if you're a Mery Crysto Baal, you know you can

865
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 2: read the postgame comments if you want to.

866
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: We don't have to go into all those.

867
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 2: You could probably predict without looking what was said. Okay,

868
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,919
Speaker 2: you know exactly what these coaches said after a game

869
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 2: like this. Yeah, Miami, I think is one of our

870
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 2: candidates as we now turn the page into Tivember that

871
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 2: we could start talking about Miami as the one two

872
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 2: three can Coon team of the week of the month

873
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 2: of the year.

874
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: I mean they hung around in this one. I guess right,

875
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:08,359
Speaker 1: they focus long enough to win.

876
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,840
Speaker 2: I feel like it's not long before Miami just packs

877
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 2: it in game was ugly.

878
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 1: Henry Parrish junior ran hard, So no TVD in this one.

879
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 1: It's Jake Garcia, a former blue chip quarterback, and I

880
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 1: suppose everybody sort of plays their backup quarterback at a

881
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: certain point, whether it's in garbage time, whether it's because

882
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,759
Speaker 1: of injury, whether it's because of performance. And Miami does

883
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:34,799
Speaker 1: not have Jake Garcia ready to succeed. The offense is

884
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 1: not ready to succeed. They have injuries. Everybody has injuries,

885
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: and you can say, well, it's Miami, it's Mario's first year.

886
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,879
Speaker 1: Guess what, it's Tony Elliott's first year. Guess what, it's

887
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: Mike Elco's first year. So I just I think James

888
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,720
Speaker 1: Williams didn't play. That's really good safety for Miami. Yeah,

889
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: it's a broken offense with broken play calling, with broken

890
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 1: broken mindset about what offense should be. And you can

891
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 1: put together your all star cast of assistants to get

892
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: everybody hot and bothered. In December and January, you can

893
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: sign a top five class, whatever you want to do.

894
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, this is what's on

895
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 1: the sideline for you, Miami, and you might get a

896
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 1: little bit better, and you're still gonna have weeks like this.

897
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to say. And sure I have my baggage

898
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: as an Oregon fan. I'm just telling you. You're in

899
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 1: for it. You're stating in for it, all right, You're

900
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: in for this. And look, Miami won the game. It's

901
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: good to win games, and they've had themselves a very

902
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,840
Speaker 1: tough season. This is not an FCS roster, This is

903
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: not a low level g five roster. It's not an

904
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,640
Speaker 1: average Power five roster. It's a good roster. And so

905
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: I I don't know what to tell you get that win,

906
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 1: but this was ugly.

907
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,399
Speaker 2: Really, let's go over to the Big ten. Start about

908
00:45:50,400 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 2: the Big ten. Michigan twenty nine Michigan State seven. Took

909
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 2: the Wolverines a little bit to get going here. They

910
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 2: trailed seven to three after the first quarter. From that

911
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 2: point forward, twenty six unanswered points. The numbers for Michigan,

912
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 2: especially on defense, are really good. Oh yeah, Sparti was

913
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 2: held to one point six yards per carry.

914
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: Really good.

915
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 2: They have a really good defense. I don't want to

916
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 2: nitpick about Michigan, but that's why I'm here. Continue, that's

917
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 2: why the AD's here. But we talked about Michigan as

918
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 2: a top four team. Michigan is probably going to get

919
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 2: some love when the first set of playoff ranking strops

920
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 2: on Tuesday evening. Yeah, we do need to have that

921
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 2: conversation about where would Michigan be if they didn't have

922
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,799
Speaker 2: Jake Moody. We do need to talk a little bit

923
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 2: about what happened in this game because it's sort of

924
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 2: a microcosm for what we've seen at moments throughout the

925
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 2: course of the season. All right, five field goals in

926
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:55,720
Speaker 2: this game against a very shaky, albeit very motivated Michigan

927
00:46:55,719 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 2: State defense. But five field goals, five field goals. Five

928
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 2: field goals will work fine against most of the teams

929
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,720
Speaker 2: in the schedule. Yeah, it won't work against Ohio State.

930
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 2: It's not going to work against Georgia or Tennessee or

931
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,840
Speaker 2: Alabama if they end up playing one of those better

932
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:13,720
Speaker 2: teams in the playoff.

933
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:15,400
Speaker 1: So what is it?

934
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,440
Speaker 2: What is it about this team? Why are they not

935
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 2: converting touchdowns instead having to settle for field goals.

936
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 1: I think Jim Harbaugh is fashioning himself as Mario Cristobal

937
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: plus like he is successfully doing what Mario crist Ball

938
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,399
Speaker 1: wants to do and has struggled to do. And yes,

939
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: I know, I always make it up Mario Cristaball. It's funny,

940
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 1: it's weird, Okay. Michigan had one touchdown drive in this game. Yes,

941
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,800
Speaker 1: because I think there was a special team's punt snap

942
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:44,919
Speaker 1: bobble that gave them the ball on the eight yard line,

943
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 1: So I don't really consider that a drive. They had

944
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,840
Speaker 1: one touchdown drive, and I want to say, was it

945
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 1: third or fourth down that blake Korm had to break

946
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,360
Speaker 1: the tackle of a unblocked essentially an unblocked defensive lineman

947
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,479
Speaker 1: to get into the end zone. This underscore is something else.

948
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,279
Speaker 1: Blake Orm is awesome. He's really good. Blake Korm is

949
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,839
Speaker 1: full on great at running back from Michigan. He is

950
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 1: he runs so hard. He is that bowling ball. We

951
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: love bowling balls in this sport. He's what five eight,

952
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 1: two tens, two fifteen, whatever, He's a bowling ball with eyes. Yeah,

953
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,319
Speaker 1: he is a pain in the ass. And he again

954
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,239
Speaker 1: I said, it's the year of the running back. He

955
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,840
Speaker 1: is the representative, and it's very tough to be the

956
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 1: representative in the Big Ten. But he has been the

957
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: most impressive running back in a conference with some pretty

958
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:32,240
Speaker 1: impressive running backs. I appreciate that Michigan has an identity

959
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 1: on offense. I appreciate that the offensive line has ascended

960
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 1: to this point. I appreciate that JJ McCarthy has a

961
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 1: higher ceiling than Cade McNamara. But I can also appreciate

962
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,439
Speaker 1: what I've seen for the Michigan State defense this year,

963
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,799
Speaker 1: and they've been pretty decent in the red zone and

964
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,799
Speaker 1: pretty terrible elsewhere. They've gotten healthier They're very motivated in

965
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: this matchup because they don't want to be seen as

966
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: little brother. But at the same time, this is not

967
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: a Michigan offense that's at all built to win in

968
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:00,440
Speaker 1: multiple ways. It's not built to go downfield. Often McCarthy

969
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 1: probably takes off too soon when he has open guys

970
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:05,760
Speaker 1: and just needs to let them sort of get open.

971
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 1: I just I don't know what it actually means, because

972
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 1: I still think they're good enough to beat Ohio State,

973
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: but I also think they play in a manner in

974
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: which they could also lose thirteen to ten to Illinois,

975
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,759
Speaker 1: and that, to me is worrisome. That they don't have

976
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 1: the ability to turn threes into sevens. And so now

977
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,720
Speaker 1: the context of Michigan is, are they getting better against

978
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 1: the best, whether it's Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson, whoever. If

979
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 1: they end up in the playoff. They don't have that gear.

980
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 1: They don't have that gear, and for them to mount

981
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 1: one touchdown drive to struggle like they did to turn

982
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 1: threes into sevens in the red zone should not be

983
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: terribly encouraging. If you're a Michigan fan. Now beating Michigan

984
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:47,360
Speaker 1: State twenty nine to seven is an incredible feeling that

985
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 1: defense is swarming and so good. Yeah, that you should

986
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 1: be overall thrilled with where Michigan is as a program

987
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 1: right now. But damn is that disappointing? Is it just

988
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: when you have that five star quarter and this is

989
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: the year where you're so deep at tight end, at

990
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,320
Speaker 1: running back, at receiver, and he's like, well, here comes Moody,

991
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: Here comes Moody. No, man, I just I want so

992
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 1: much more for them. Well, it's it's I want so

993
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 1: much more for Blake Korum. Yeah.

994
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's a frustrating feeling as a fan

995
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 2: knowing that there is meat on the bone. Yeah, I

996
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 2: mean that there is more out there and they just

997
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,800
Speaker 2: weren't able to get it. Michigan is still in a

998
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,359
Speaker 2: really good spot. Michigan is going to play Ohio State.

999
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 2: That game is going to have just an incredible amount

1000
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 2: of meaning and gravity to it in Week thirteen.

1001
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: But I don't think you're wrong.

1002
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,440
Speaker 2: To say this is also the kind of team that

1003
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,399
Speaker 2: could lose like thirteen ten Illinois at home.

1004
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,120
Speaker 1: I mean, this is also it's a Michigan State defense

1005
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: that was bombed by Washington, bombed by Maryland, like did

1006
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: Wisconsin I think in a losing effort because that was overtime.

1007
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:56,800
Speaker 1: Wisconsin scored three touchdowns right during regulation against this Michigan

1008
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,400
Speaker 1: State defense recently, so that to me is the issue now.

1009
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: On the other side of the ball, uh Kean Coleman

1010
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 1: is really good. Yeah, I mean, I don't know what

1011
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: it means. He's I think he's a sophomore, but big

1012
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,600
Speaker 1: receiver made plays against a really good Michigan I just

1013
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 1: I don't think the passing game is there. I don't

1014
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 1: think the running game is there for Michigan State at

1015
00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: the moment. I think they need to look in their

1016
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,840
Speaker 1: hearts for what the offense needs to be moving forward,

1017
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: such feelings, Luke, because it's not there right now for

1018
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 1: Michigan State. Also, weird tunnel stuff again, do you see that?

1019
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunate tunnel stuff. And this was more than just

1020
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 2: a couple of meatheads yelling things and pushing each other around.

1021
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:30,399
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1022
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh said after the game that two of his

1023
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 2: players were assaulted, that he's working with authorities try and

1024
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 2: figure out exactly what happened. Bring those who are responsible,

1025
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 2: you know, to light here. So we'll have to wait

1026
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 2: and see what transpired exactly. On that front, but at

1027
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 2: least some of the video that I saw this morning

1028
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 2: circulating on social media is not very promising.

1029
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 1: So hope everybody's okay. I hope, I hope the injuries

1030
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,879
Speaker 1: are minimal. I hope the I hope justice for what

1031
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 1: you know. I hope everything is instigated, because it's easy

1032
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,959
Speaker 1: to see like, well, Michigan State players just lost their cool,

1033
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 1: or Michigan State people are going to say the Michigan

1034
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: player clearly instigated it. Here's what I took away from it.

1035
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:13,839
Speaker 1: Solve this problem, Michigan people. Solve this tunnel and locker

1036
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,439
Speaker 1: room issue, and make sure people are not crossing over

1037
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 1: with your one tunnel and your locker room access. Block

1038
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:22,400
Speaker 1: teams off and make sure there is an overlap and

1039
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: we'll have less of it. Not blaming victims, not blaming

1040
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 1: purpet what clean up this issue? That's all?

1041
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, or put some fail saves in place. You hate

1042
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 2: to see stuff like that.

1043
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 1: Okay.

1044
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 2: Elsewhere in the Big ten very quickly, Illinois sort of

1045
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 2: sat on Nebraska twenty six to nine. Was the final here.

1046
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 2: Huskers through three picks couldn't really run it two of

1047
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 2: twelve onnth third downs, just eight first downs all game

1048
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:51,320
Speaker 2: and then Casey Dompson got hurt. So Illinois very efficient,

1049
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 2: very efficient in knocking you off Nebraska again twenty six

1050
00:52:55,840 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 2: to nine. Iowa win's my twenty over your Northwestern while

1051
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 2: Cats dan.

1052
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:04,279
Speaker 1: Like the first time in a little bit.

1053
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:07,600
Speaker 2: I think four hundred yards of offense for Brian Farrens

1054
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 2: and the Hawkeys offense.

1055
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 1: The Cats are really bad. They are so bad.

1056
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,200
Speaker 2: The Cats are one and seven on the season. They've

1057
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 2: got Ohio State, Minnesota, Purdue, and Illinois left on the schedule.

1058
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,560
Speaker 2: They're going one and eleven. I mean, it's I think

1059
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 2: the die is cast that they're going one at eleven.

1060
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 2: And we had some folks tweeting us wondering, as this

1061
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 2: is it for Fitzgerald. I find that hard to believe.

1062
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,759
Speaker 2: I think he will be there for as long as

1063
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 2: he's willing to stay. But it's been a minute, been

1064
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 2: a minute since we could talk about a competent Northwestern offense.

1065
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 1: So Northwestern has lost to Iowa recently. I take back

1066
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 1: the illusion with the intro to this game. A really

1067
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 1: complete performance from Iowa, by the way. Yeah. OK, the

1068
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: air and on the ground, Spencer Peatris was, if nothing

1069
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 1: else efficient, but they gave the ball to a number

1070
00:53:58,040 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 1: of backs. I didn't watch a ton of this game.

1071
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 1: It was not a high priority for me and sit

1072
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:06,600
Speaker 1: down tie Saturday, but a nice enough performance to score

1073
00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:11,279
Speaker 1: points for Iowa. It seems as for Illinois Nebraska the

1074
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:14,280
Speaker 1: Brown brothers and Tommy Devido, Sidney Brown on defense was everywhere,

1075
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,880
Speaker 1: and of course Chase Brown is toating the rock. Isaiah

1076
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 1: Williams big play guy now out wide developing for the

1077
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,839
Speaker 1: ali and I and I think is it in two

1078
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 1: weeks that they have Purdue essentially for the West? Is

1079
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 1: what it seems at this moment. I think that game

1080
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,320
Speaker 1: is in Champagne, So that's going to be a fascinating

1081
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:33,640
Speaker 1: watch that I will watch because especially the Illinois defense

1082
00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 1: has been very good TV. Anything else in the Big Ten.

1083
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,759
Speaker 2: Minnesota won thirty one zip over Rutgers. They possessed the

1084
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 2: ball for forty one minutes.

1085
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, big game from Oebrahem and Tanta Morgan was back.

1086
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,400
Speaker 1: It goes back. Yeah, that's a good, good thing to see.

1087
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:54,399
Speaker 2: Let's bounce over to the SEC okay Ole miss thirty one,

1088
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,440
Speaker 2: Texas A and M twenty eight. The bad news first.

1089
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,320
Speaker 2: The bad news is that Texas A and M is

1090
00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 2: now three and five, and in order to make a

1091
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,439
Speaker 2: bowl game, they have to win three of their remaining four,

1092
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 2: which is not a given. They also gave up three

1093
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:10,400
Speaker 2: hundred and ninety.

1094
00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 1: Yards on the ground to old miss Man. The good news, oh,

1095
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:22,359
Speaker 1: the good news, twenty eight points. They've done it. They

1096
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,840
Speaker 1: made it past twenty five, Dan, they did one to

1097
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,960
Speaker 1: thirty on to thirty.

1098
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 2: Twenty eight points for the Aggies and Connor Wegman. Yeah,

1099
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,520
Speaker 2: Connor Wegman, if there is nothing else to play for

1100
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 2: this season other than a cheap bowl game, if he

1101
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 2: goes six and six or seven and five, take some

1102
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 2: just take a deep breath, take some solace in the

1103
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 2: fact knowing that Connor Wegman, true freshman, came in and

1104
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,800
Speaker 2: looked really good. Three hundred and thirty eight yards, four touchdowns,

1105
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 2: no interceptions. He played a little bit last week, it

1106
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,360
Speaker 2: looked really green. I remember saying he looked green and

1107
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,759
Speaker 2: not ready. Well, we saw him this week. He looked

1108
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 2: far more prepared, and I think it's clear that he

1109
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 2: is the future. I know the tone among A and

1110
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 2: M fans is going to be well, he should have

1111
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:08,440
Speaker 2: been playing all along.

1112
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,839
Speaker 1: Where was this guy from the start? You guys can have.

1113
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,640
Speaker 2: That conversation if you want to. Now, all I can

1114
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,879
Speaker 2: do is report and react to what's happened now through

1115
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 2: nine weeks of the college football season. Through nine weeks

1116
00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:23,919
Speaker 2: of the college football season, there haven't been a whole

1117
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 2: lot of good stories on the Texas A and M

1118
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:30,359
Speaker 2: offensive front. So now have this with Connor Wegman, who

1119
00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:33,479
Speaker 2: looks promising, seems the future. To know that he makes

1120
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 2: everybody around him better, whether it's Devin ah Chane or

1121
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 2: Evan Stewart or whoever that I think is promising, I

1122
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 2: would take that. I would feel good about that. I

1123
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 2: wouldn't care so much about the record, because at this point,

1124
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,400
Speaker 2: who cares. You're already falling far short of expectations. But

1125
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:51,439
Speaker 2: the Connor Wegman thing, if he continues to progress, would

1126
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 2: be a really cool story for them.

1127
00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, especially how rhythmic, how rhythmiclee they came

1128
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,839
Speaker 1: out of the gate Mus Muhammed and Evan Stewart, Devin

1129
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 1: a chain like the offense really look like it had something.

1130
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,920
Speaker 1: I think in the short, medium, long term whatever it

1131
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,600
Speaker 1: will under Connor Wakeman. I mean it's just one game,

1132
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,399
Speaker 1: but there was a confidence there. There's a skill there.

1133
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,319
Speaker 1: There's a poise there that as a freshman, if you

1134
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 1: see it generally means for good. You can tell, you

1135
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 1: could tell, and you know what. The line in front

1136
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:20,760
Speaker 1: of him is a hot mess right now. I mean

1137
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,760
Speaker 1: they they've got some issues on offense and they're beat

1138
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 1: up too. They're beat out on the inside of that line.

1139
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's not it's not fair to just want

1140
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,280
Speaker 2: to dunk on the A and M offense right all

1141
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:35,479
Speaker 2: the time, the way the way we're sometimes prone to doing.

1142
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 2: I thought this is a positive story for him. Obviously

1143
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 2: they would like the win, you know, that's a.

1144
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: Positive story for them. Also, ole Miss ran for four

1145
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:47,800
Speaker 1: four hundred yards cards in Kyle Field. Yeah, A and

1146
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,760
Speaker 1: M in this game. I think I read had eight

1147
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: injury timeouts on defense alone. Okay, obviously they gave up

1148
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: nearly four hundred yards in the ground.

1149
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,480
Speaker 2: A reasonable mind couldn't make the case that this is

1150
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,479
Speaker 2: a defense that is starting to wear down after two

1151
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:06,919
Speaker 2: straight months of being leaned on to try and win

1152
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 2: games for the offense.

1153
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 1: They may have met their match here.

1154
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 2: They may slowly be starting to wear down a bit

1155
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,600
Speaker 2: because ole Miss didn't even try to throw it like

1156
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 2: they just they just bashed their brains in and ran

1157
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:19,040
Speaker 2: for again.

1158
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 1: Three to ninety ye had not much so it seemed again.

1159
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: I watched chunks of this game. I didn't watch every

1160
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 1: single snap, every single moment, but a lighter defense like

1161
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 1: dj Diurkin was playing a lot of dbs in this

1162
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 1: one and Ole Miss just started counting. It was kind

1163
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 1: of a vegan defense as not a lot of beef.

1164
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:45,479
Speaker 1: And Quinn Shawn Judkins is a freshman doing he turned

1165
00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:49,240
Speaker 1: nineteen yesterday. Dan, Oh my god, you are You're thirty

1166
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 1: years older, Ty, thirty years older than Quinn Shawn Judkins.

1167
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. No another year of the running back elements.

1168
00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 1: He's great the ole Miss I think Jackson Dart was

1169
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 1: really really good making plays and he should continue to

1170
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: keep growing. There are some flaws to this ole Miss

1171
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 1: team in terms of offensive consistency and defensive consistency, but

1172
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:11,040
Speaker 1: to go to Kyle Field, a place where they do

1173
00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 1: not win often, and do what they did, especially on

1174
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: the ground, let's let's reframe this for a second. It's

1175
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:18,560
Speaker 1: not all about A and M as you and I

1176
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 1: are guilty of doing sometimes. Ole Miss was super impressive, Yes,

1177
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 1: awful road and stopp off of a loss. Yep, so

1178
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 1: ole miss is eight and one.

1179
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:30,880
Speaker 2: Now they're on a buy in their home in two

1180
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:34,240
Speaker 2: weeks against Alabama. Yeah, which will be interesting all right.

1181
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:38,240
Speaker 2: Elsewhere to round out the SEC, Arkansas won forty one

1182
00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:42,920
Speaker 2: to twenty seven over Auburn and Miszoo won twenty three

1183
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 2: to ten over South Carolina. On the Arkansas front, a

1184
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 2: really good effort from kJ Jefferson and Raheem Sanders. A

1185
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,320
Speaker 2: really good job by Arkansas going on the road getting

1186
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 2: the w They had two hundred and sixteen of their

1187
00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 2: two hundred and eighty six rushing yards in the second

1188
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:03,200
Speaker 2: half and just sort of wore Auburn down. They contained

1189
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:05,880
Speaker 2: tank bigs b you know. Auburn I thought put up

1190
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:09,880
Speaker 2: a decent enough fight late, but Arkansas at that point

1191
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 2: was just too far out in front. The big news

1192
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 2: on the Auburn front actually is that they're hiring a

1193
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 2: new ad that they're poaching away to the athletic director

1194
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 2: from Mississippi State, John Cohen. He's been there the last

1195
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 2: seven years. Presumably this will have some downstream ramifications for one.

1196
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 2: Brian Harson yep, Brian Harson very much on the chopping

1197
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 2: block here we'll see what happens. I suspect I know

1198
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,960
Speaker 2: what will happen. Auburn has lost eight of its last

1199
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:40,200
Speaker 2: nine games against SEC opponents.

1200
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:45,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, Marahem Sanders and the entire rushing attack seems to

1201
01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 1: be very very good. Wrong for Arkansas, and Arkansas got stops,

1202
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 1: got some key stops. The defense has been pretty bad

1203
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 1: this year. But Auburn is that Alcott Seltzer, you know

1204
01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 1: that the care for the common defense. I guess so

1205
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 1: the Alka Selter. Okay, it was a very Sam Pittman

1206
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:02,720
Speaker 1: win in the way that they laid on him in

1207
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 1: the second half.

1208
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Miszoo jumped out to a big lead. They

1209
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:10,040
Speaker 2: just sort of cruised to victory over South Carolina. Carolina

1210
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 2: did not put up much of a fight on offense,

1211
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 2: maybe a bit hungover, I don't know. After that, A

1212
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,760
Speaker 2: and M win just two hundred yards of offense, two

1213
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:19,560
Speaker 2: turnovers for Mazoo. The first time they've beaten a ranked

1214
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:21,680
Speaker 2: opponent in close to two years.

1215
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 1: So they've gotten close. Yeah, and it was with LOVET

1216
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 1: love it. I apologize for getting the name wrong. I

1217
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 1: watched this game on mute. Had a receiver pop, which

1218
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:31,920
Speaker 1: does not always happen. Brady Cook was good like it

1219
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 1: was a It wasn't a high scoring affair, but it was.

1220
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:36,880
Speaker 1: It was a complete waft to a zoo, a much

1221
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 1: needed complete win. Yeah.

1222
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:44,320
Speaker 2: Let's close things out with the PAC twelve. Let's USC

1223
01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:49,919
Speaker 2: forty five Arizona thirty seven.

1224
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 1: USC's back, Dan, Yeah, I mean they won.

1225
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 2: The defense is back. Yeah, yeah, the defense is back.

1226
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,960
Speaker 2: They gave up five hundred and forty three yards to Arizona,

1227
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:02,720
Speaker 2: but they won.

1228
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:03,640
Speaker 1: They won.

1229
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:07,160
Speaker 2: They wanted touson forty five thirty seven. Let me just

1230
01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 2: say this, If I could pick one quarterback to be

1231
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 2: in charge of my NFL team, which very much needs

1232
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 2: a quarterback in New York, Yeah, I think I'd pick

1233
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:17,440
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams. I know, I said Bryce Young last week.

1234
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 1: I changed my mind. Now it's okay, You're allowed it made.

1235
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:21,280
Speaker 1: Next week it might be c J. Stroud. I'm excited.

1236
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams still has some flaws.

1237
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,120
Speaker 2: He's not a finished product. He's very close to a

1238
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:34,160
Speaker 2: finished product. Yeah, he is incredible. He is incredible, even

1239
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 2: his flaws were like splitting hairs. Still misses some guys, right,

1240
01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 2: still does some of the stuff that needs to get

1241
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,480
Speaker 2: better at but four hundred and eleven yards and five

1242
01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 2: touchdowns in this game. They can count on him to

1243
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:48,880
Speaker 2: make plays whenever they need one. What they can't count

1244
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 2: on him to do is play defense, and I think

1245
01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:54,040
Speaker 2: ultimately that will be the undoing for the SESSE team.

1246
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,480
Speaker 2: They don't have the guys up front, and against a

1247
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 2: team like Arizona on the road, you can get away

1248
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,400
Speaker 2: with it. But if they eventually end up playing against

1249
01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 2: a team like Oregon.

1250
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 1: Now you see they got Zach Sharbone. Zach sharbones are

1251
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 1: getting wide.

1252
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:13,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are opportunities here I think for this SC

1253
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:15,440
Speaker 2: team to have some issues.

1254
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 1: So we shall see. Okay, this game was weird, So

1255
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 1: no Jordan Addison, no Mario Williams, Caylen Williams. As you're

1256
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:26,640
Speaker 1: correct in asserting incredible, full on incredible and in that

1257
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:32,120
Speaker 1: sort of new school Johnny Manzel, Patrick Mahomes, Bryce Young

1258
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 1: kind of I am athletic enough to buy myself time

1259
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:38,760
Speaker 1: to find the play I want to make works a

1260
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 1: lot of the time. Now. So they're down to those

1261
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:42,919
Speaker 1: star receivers, and they still have guys you know, Stilf,

1262
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,720
Speaker 1: Taj Washington, they still have Brendan Rice, they have playmakers

1263
01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 1: that they can count on, but there is something about

1264
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:54,840
Speaker 1: not pulling away from Arizona. The very strange end to

1265
01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 1: the first half, and by very strange, I mean pretty

1266
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:00,920
Speaker 1: typical for PAC twelve refs at the point who decided

1267
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 1: to stand over the ball as after a completion as

1268
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:08,080
Speaker 1: the seconds ticked off and it it never stopped after

1269
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 1: the completion, and it's supposed to begin when a ref

1270
01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 1: leaves from covering the ball, and it just they just

1271
01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:17,680
Speaker 1: allowed the have to end for maybe all the refs

1272
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,640
Speaker 1: had to poop is that. I don't understand the conceivable reasoning.

1273
01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure in the moment that they probably apologized to

1274
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley be like, oh, yeah, we don't know what happened. Woops,

1275
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 1: that's on it. Lincoln Riley was none too pleased. No,

1276
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:34,240
Speaker 1: it was embarrassing, But honestly, the whole game was embarrassingly

1277
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 1: reffed in terms of PI calls or non calls both ways.

1278
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:42,200
Speaker 1: There was a fourth and eight stop late in this game,

1279
01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:45,800
Speaker 1: in a one possession game, I believe that Arizona would

1280
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: have taken over and a player as Caleb Williams is

1281
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,480
Speaker 1: strung out of bounds. An Arizona player gets in his

1282
01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:54,760
Speaker 1: face and maybe they touched helmets or something like that,

1283
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:56,920
Speaker 1: but he didn't throw Kayleb Williams to the ground, he

1284
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 1: didn't shove Caleb Williams. They just got in each other's

1285
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 1: faces as people do. It was called unsportsmanlike conduct. First

1286
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 1: down US see, And it's just those moments where you're

1287
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 1: just like, are we gonna let football decide the football game?

1288
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,240
Speaker 1: And I know we have complaints about targeting across the

1289
01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:15,000
Speaker 1: sport and no calls and too many like this game

1290
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 1: was pathetically called and it's an all too familiar thing

1291
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,439
Speaker 1: in the PAC twelve. And as soon as I saw

1292
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:22,360
Speaker 1: the crew calling this game, I was like, buddy, this

1293
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,480
Speaker 1: is gonna take four hours. Things are gonna take longer

1294
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:26,600
Speaker 1: than needed, and none of it is going to make sense.

1295
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:30,840
Speaker 1: This crew specifically is the worst.

1296
01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:33,920
Speaker 2: Well, but USC you don't take the dub they want,

1297
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:37,960
Speaker 2: they will take the dub. Oregon, Your Ducks forty two

1298
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 2: twenty four over col Oregon was favored by seventeen. They

1299
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 2: won by eighteen.

1300
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:47,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cow got some garbage time points. Bon Nix was

1301
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:49,800
Speaker 1: incredible in this game. He had all the time in

1302
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,600
Speaker 1: the world to sit back and pick apart a cal defense.

1303
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 1: The running game was fine for Oregon. A lot of

1304
01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:58,920
Speaker 1: it was just making plays with bon Nicks. The defense

1305
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 1: completely overwhelmed offensive line. Cal has some pretty good players

1306
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:05,440
Speaker 1: on offense, but the actual scheme, the actual ability to

1307
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:08,240
Speaker 1: adjust is just not at all there for Cal. And

1308
01:06:08,960 --> 01:06:11,600
Speaker 1: four hundred and seventy three people attended this game, so

1309
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:15,040
Speaker 1: Oregon brought their own juice, as they mentioned on the broadcast,

1310
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 1: and this game was not anywhere near I mean, Oregon

1311
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:21,000
Speaker 1: started slowly, but it was not anywhere near what the

1312
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:22,240
Speaker 1: final score indicates.

1313
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 2: Utah one on Thursday Night, twenty one to seventeen. Bryce

1314
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 2: and Barnes, the sophomore, got the start in place of

1315
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 2: the injured Cam Rising, who said he told Kyle Whittingham

1316
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:33,600
Speaker 2: before the game that he didn't think he could go,

1317
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 2: so Barnes got the start. All things considered, I thought

1318
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,880
Speaker 2: a good effort on the road against the Pac twelve's

1319
01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:42,480
Speaker 2: best defense in Wazoo.

1320
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 1: Wazu as flaws Wazoo.

1321
01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:46,960
Speaker 2: I think will come out of this game feeling like

1322
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 2: they could have gotten more, but a nice win.

1323
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 1: I thought in pullmans Utah down arguably their best pass catcher.

1324
01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:58,640
Speaker 1: They're starting running back and starting quarterback, and still the

1325
01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:00,960
Speaker 1: defense did plenty to win the game for the Utes

1326
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 1: in limiting cam Ward completely, basically shutting down the Wazoo

1327
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:10,440
Speaker 1: rushing attack. A really weird way to play given all

1328
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:13,840
Speaker 1: that was left behind, but good win for Utah for sure.

1329
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 2: And then to round things out in the Pac twelve,

1330
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 2: Ucla wins by twenty five over Stanford they rushed for

1331
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:23,960
Speaker 2: three hundred and twenty four yards, and Arizona State knocks

1332
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,600
Speaker 2: off Colorado forty two to thirty forty all true.

1333
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:29,240
Speaker 1: I can confirm all of those results.

1334
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:33,280
Speaker 2: We also had UCF knocking off Cincinnati in the American

1335
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:37,160
Speaker 2: This is a really good game. Mikey Keane came in

1336
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 2: for UCF and had it working man. He looked good,

1337
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:43,240
Speaker 2: he looked very confident throwing the football. Twenty five to

1338
01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:46,280
Speaker 2: twenty one was your final there And if we could Dan,

1339
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:49,320
Speaker 2: if we could just reach down into the old Patriot

1340
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 2: League slash SCS ranks. Oh my god, of course, Holy

1341
01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:58,840
Speaker 2: Cross fifty three FORDOM fifty two.

1342
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: Game of the week of the century of the millennium.

1343
01:08:04,360 --> 01:08:08,040
Speaker 2: Did not watch this game. Got tweeted many times over

1344
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:11,680
Speaker 2: about this game as a Cross Saders win by one

1345
01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:12,240
Speaker 2: big game.

1346
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,680
Speaker 1: I watched highlights, I watched clips. It looked incredibly exciting

1347
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:21,800
Speaker 1: and I guess good for the Cross not a huge

1348
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:25,080
Speaker 1: factor in this one, but there were playmakers all over

1349
01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:26,760
Speaker 1: the field in this one. As far as I could

1350
01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 1: tell elsewhere, it was actually a really interesting day. Charlotte

1351
01:08:31,400 --> 01:08:33,839
Speaker 1: fires their coach. They win by thirty five or something

1352
01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 1: like that.

1353
01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:35,000
Speaker 2: Obvious.

1354
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:38,720
Speaker 1: They take down Rice, who themselves having a pretty good year.

1355
01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 1: Toledo beats Eastern Michigan. They needed to come back to

1356
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:44,719
Speaker 1: do so, but they get to Bowl eligibility. We didn't

1357
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,040
Speaker 1: really talk about Florida State Georgia Tech in the ACC,

1358
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:49,200
Speaker 1: but a nice sort of net crack they needed to win.

1359
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:52,040
Speaker 1: They got a win, even when they weren't super consistent

1360
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 1: on offense. Florida State, guys, there it is, We're making plays.

1361
01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:57,880
Speaker 1: We sort of glossed over the fact. But Yukon is

1362
01:08:57,880 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 1: two wins away from Bowl eligibility after they take down

1363
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:04,559
Speaker 1: Boston College thirteen to three in Jim morris first season.

1364
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 2: They've got UMass, Liberty and Army remaining on their schedule.

1365
01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,040
Speaker 2: Got to win two of those games.

1366
01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:17,519
Speaker 1: Not too shabby. Appstate demolishes Bobby Mo North Texas with

1367
01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:21,719
Speaker 1: a really impressive win against WKU forty to thirteen. Good

1368
01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,000
Speaker 1: for I think they have like a forty three year

1369
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 1: old quarterback. I want to say, please, he's nine, so

1370
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:32,200
Speaker 1: you were thirty when he was born as well. Boise

1371
01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:34,800
Speaker 1: State again continues to roll. Has not lost in the

1372
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:38,439
Speaker 1: Mountain West. It was Colorado State, so that was to

1373
01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:41,240
Speaker 1: be expected. But I think it's Taylor Green and George Hallani.

1374
01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:44,480
Speaker 1: That backfield has been very good against not great competition.

1375
01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:47,519
Speaker 1: Coastal came out and absolutely laid the lumber against Marshall

1376
01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:50,120
Speaker 1: early on in this game and just sort of cruised

1377
01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:53,200
Speaker 1: to victory. Marshall falls, excuse me, to four and four,

1378
01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:55,160
Speaker 1: one and three in the sun Belt, but one of

1379
01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:59,320
Speaker 1: those four stop it against against your Notre Dame fighting Irish.

1380
01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:02,439
Speaker 1: Elsewhere our middle Tennessee they improved to four and four,

1381
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,680
Speaker 1: including went over Miami. They take down UTAP in El

1382
01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 1: Paso twenty four to thirteen. Fresno storms back to beat

1383
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:12,080
Speaker 1: San Diego State. Ty I thought this was over when

1384
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:16,400
Speaker 1: I went to bed. They had to score two touchdowns

1385
01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:18,840
