1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio radio happened twenty twenty 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 1: six in Jonas. I honestly, as an Ohio State fan, 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 1: could not picked a worse morning to get up and 4 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 1: start a day, let alone an entire new year after 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: the debacle last night in Dallas. 6 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 2: Hold on a second, you don't want to open up 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 2: with the Tony the Tiger sun shooting break down. 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: That see you later, Gary Danielson, the cheese at Citrus Bowl, 9 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 1: Arch Manning throwing shade at the Citrus Bowl. If I 10 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 1: would have said it's fifty five degrees out, I don't go, 11 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: let's go skating on the pond, that would have been 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: a better decision than coming in today after what happened 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: last night. My resolution for twenty twenty six better planning, 14 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: Better planning. It's not that I thought Ohio State would win. 15 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: I just never took into account what would happen if 16 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: they lost, and it was on full display last night. 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: If not even for one second of the game, Miami 18 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: had the buck guys by the neck, and the Canes 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: are onto the College Football semi Finals and there will 20 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: not be a repeat champion in college football. 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: It didn't it feel like first of all, Happy New 22 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 2: Year to everybody listening who's making us a part of 23 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: their the first listen or second listener or whatever your 24 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: first moments of twenty twenty six. But didn't it feel 25 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 2: like watching that game, it was just kind of meant 26 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 2: to be Miami's night, Like everything just see like the 27 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 2: like Tony dropping the ball in it, bouncing back up 28 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: to it, like everything just seemed to go the way 29 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: of the Canes last night. And it just Ohio State 30 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: looks flat. Man, they look flat. And that's been the 31 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: story with whether we want to get into teams with 32 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 2: a buyer zero to five. But it's a you know, 33 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 2: it's a small sample size, so what does that really mean. 34 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: It just looked like Miami was ready to go and 35 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: Ohio State was flat and couldn't really get it going 36 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: until the second half. 37 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz turns into Marshawn Lynch and is like running 38 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: over guys for first downs like this is like it was. 39 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: It was. It was a crazy and even when you 40 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: thought maybe Ohio State had a chance miss a field goal, 41 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: which has been a bugaboo of theirs, especially in games 42 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: that they've lost previously, the pressure got to Julian saying, 43 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: But the most crazy thing of all of all of 44 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: this that I like, my takeaway and looking at this 45 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: is how much people hate Ohio State and how much 46 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: they actually probably hate the Big Ten more than the SEC. 47 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: And the reason that I say this is last night 48 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: on social media the sense that I got, and it 49 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: may have been Jonas because of the lead in. Remember 50 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: the Big Ten record of these bowl games, you know, 51 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: Big ten A six SEC had two wins and one 52 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: of them was at a game between the SEC and 53 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: the SEC. That was one of their wins heading into. 54 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: Ironically, they didn't count that as a loss though. They 55 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 2: move that off to the side. 56 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: But think about this, Think about the days of when 57 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: you were growing up watching football. I was growing up 58 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: watching football. So many of us we're watching football. It's 59 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: not like the you was everyone's favorite, and when you 60 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: get to the NFL, everybody hated the Dallas Cowboys except 61 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: if you were a Cowboys fan. So last night I 62 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: felt this sense of everyone is on the side of 63 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: Michael Irvin and the uh like as playmakers on the sidelines. 64 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 2: He's doing his thing, bta's beltst my first Don. 65 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: And ray Lewis is standing there. Dude, I'm like, America 66 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: is behind the Canes. 67 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 2: I get it. If you want to be in a 68 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: lum and you want to go root on your team, 69 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: I totally get it. But when Michael Irvin's got a 70 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 2: belt and he's whipping a Gatorade bucket after the gate, like, 71 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 2: what are we doing here? Dude? Like, well, like, what 72 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 2: is happening? 73 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: The same shirt again, the you that like goes along 74 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: the arms and the same guild. Like I honestly got 75 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: a kick out of it against Texas A and m 76 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: not so much last night as as I thought that 77 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: maybe I would obviously being facetious. But that's the point 78 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: is like people are like, yeah, do your thing, Michael Irvin. 79 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, do your America's team. 80 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. 81 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: Does everybody remember there was a T shirt that was 82 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 2: Catholics first Convicts. Do you know who the convicts were? 83 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: It was that team that Michael Irvin was putting belt 84 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: to ass on a Gatorade jug for Like, that was 85 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 2: the convicts on that side of it. 86 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: And last night, in the final day of twenty twenty five, 87 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: it's what America can rally behind, Republicans and Democrats coming together, 88 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: the religions, uniting everyone of race, religion and color coming 89 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: behind the Miami Hurricanes as they knock off the Big 90 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: Ten's Ohio State Buckeyes. 91 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, maybe it was you know, a 92 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: little payback for what happened in two thousand and three. 93 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 2: You know, just the awful, the the the call that 94 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: was made that that cost you know, Ken Dorsey and 95 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: Company a National Chances ship and Willis mcgahee's knee turning 96 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 2: into a wind sock like that. You know, there was 97 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 2: all that that went on. But I just it no, 98 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 2: like there can never be a middle ground in college football. 99 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 2: It is and you mentioned politics, it's one side, like 100 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: you either really love something or you absolutely hate it, 101 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: and that was on full display last night. 102 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 103 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: Do you think Notre Dame fans were cheering for Ohio 104 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: State because I think that would be a tough cheer 105 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: for them, But with Miami's place in all of this, 106 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: because I think that's also then Now part of this 107 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: conversation is because so much was made about Miami's inclusion 108 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: into the bracket, with Notre Dame obviously being left out. 109 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: But is there a sense now that Miami has arrived 110 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: Because I've never bought into that in the NCAA tournament 111 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: when a final like a first four team makes a 112 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: run like VCU and it's like, you know, they showed 113 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: they belong And I'm like, well, no, the resume would 114 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: have showed that they belonged. But I'm trying to decipher 115 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: if it's different in college football because of how small 116 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: this landscape is. 117 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 2: Well, like, I have a buddy who's a Miami fan 118 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 2: and he was like, man, it's crazy that they even 119 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 2: had that, there was any conversation about them not getting in. 120 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 2: And it's like, well, not really, Like it's not really crazy, 121 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 2: Like like what your resume is your resume and if 122 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 2: they had slip ups during the regular season, you should 123 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: be held accountable for that, and they did so once 124 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 2: you get in and it's a one, one game situation 125 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 2: and it's a you know, win an advanced situation like 126 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: the NCAA tournament. Like, once you're in the door, it 127 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 2: opens up all sorts of opportunities, all sorts of potential. 128 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: It doesn't justify why you should be in just because 129 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 2: you made a run, just like I don't know that 130 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 2: it justifies why James Madison shouldn't have been in because 131 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 2: they got wiped out that's very possible that could happen. Look, 132 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: Miami could get annihilated next game against Georgia like that, 133 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 2: that's really possible and really could happen. It's these one 134 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 2: you don't get multiple chances to play that game out. 135 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: If they're playing a best of five, Ohio State probably 136 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: wins three to one, like they'll win the next three 137 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 2: games and move on. Yeah, I look at it, and 138 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 2: I go once you get an opportunity to go in, 139 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: anybody can play the lotto, like nobody's got an advantage 140 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 2: over somebody else. Miami played the lotto, they got in, 141 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: they won, Now they move on. I don't know if 142 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: this justifies them getting out. 143 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's there's no way that because I look 144 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: at what went wrong with the game last night from 145 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: the Ohio State perspective, and the missfield goal was something, 146 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: but it wasn't nothing, but it wasn't everything. It was 147 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: what happened on the defensive line with Miami getting after 148 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: Julian Sand Ohio State's run. Game had moments and really 149 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: like the final score was twenty four to fourteen, it 150 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: was probably a twenty four to fourteen game, but as 151 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: it played out, it was closer it was seventeen to fourteen. 152 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: You know, at a time Ohio State had a chance 153 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: to end up taking the lead. But when you look 154 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: at how Miami dominated the first half, I mean it 155 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: was domination and it was fourteen to nothing going into halftime, 156 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: dominated time of possession, dominated the line of scrimmage. They 157 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: even had a turnover, but they turnover was kind of 158 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: changed on the pick six at Miami ended up happening. 159 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: The point being is, I don't think that we look 160 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: at Miami now and say, wow, the acc was something. 161 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 2: Maybe yeah, yeah, Like look what I mean, they did 162 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: win that conference, right, I know, okay. 163 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: They well know they lost in the championship game, right. 164 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: But the point being is, when we're trying to decipher 165 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: these conference strengths, now, this is a huge hit for 166 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: Ohio State because Ohio State's resume was put into question 167 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: on who they play and who they didn't play. Now, 168 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: a lot of that's not necessarily their fault their fault. 169 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: It's not their fault that James Franklin got fired by 170 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: Penn State and Drew Aller ends up suffering a season 171 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: ending injury and Penn State wasn't the preseason national championship 172 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: contender that you thought they were going to be. They 173 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: ended up putting Tech. They having Texas on the schedule, Well, 174 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: Texas maybe doesn't live up to what their preseason billing was. 175 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 1: That's really not Ohio State's fault in this scenario. However, 176 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: when you're talking about conference supremacy, which is what we 177 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: were talking about with people from the Big Ten, including myself, 178 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 1: trying to make these bowl games mean something and say, 179 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: see the Big Ten's, you know, up to a certain 180 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: point undefeated. Now Nebraska got ran over by Utah and 181 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Bowl, Michigan lost to Texas, and now 182 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: Ohio State ends up falling to Miami. It wasn't a 183 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 1: banner day for the Big Ten on New Year's Eve. 184 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: But when we're trying to decipher on what conference is better, 185 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: on what conference is worse, it's tough to do it 186 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: when you're doing it in conference play because you have 187 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: no idea on who is good and who isn't good. 188 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: So the only thing that you have are the few 189 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: non conference opportunities. And as crazy as it is, the 190 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: bowl season or the playoffs, and the bowl season, we 191 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: know is ridiculous with all of the players that are 192 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: sitting out for certain schools or some that just aren't 193 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: playing the bowl game. Some are going to the NFL Draft. 194 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: The College Football Playoff at least gives you these schools 195 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: at full strength. And so now the Big Ten doesn't 196 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: have a lot of breaking rights because one of their powers. 197 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: Now it's up to Indiana and Oregon to carry it. 198 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: But their main power and defending national champion did not 199 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: look the part last night, and that's not good for 200 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: the Big Ten. 201 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it came out completely flat. As we mentioned, your guy, 202 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 2: Ryan Day, one of the all time great beards, and 203 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 2: I saw a lot of people last night making jokes 204 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 2: about he needs to go back and dies beard. He 205 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: needs It's like, okay, like, let's stop focus on the 206 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 2: negative stuff, Like it wasn't that long ago. We opened 207 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 2: up the year and I remember being on the air 208 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 2: and one of the big things going on on social 209 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 2: media with Ryan Day was whether or not he had 210 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: a nipple piercing, because there was some picture that was 211 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: posted of him doing a halftime interview with that with 212 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: Jenny Taft, and it's like, oh no, that was just 213 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 2: a I generated, Like wait, what. 214 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: Surprised it was the bar bell? Right, that's not like 215 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 1: a ring. 216 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, not a ring like I don't think it'd be 217 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: like a you know, like a Buckeye like you know, 218 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: the horseshoe or championship ring last year exactly. But instead, no, 219 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 2: that was the that was the making the round. It's 220 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 2: like the first first weekend of college football, you know, 221 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: other than Week zero, and it's Texas Ohio State and 222 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: we're focused on Ryan Day's nip piercing. But your guy 223 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 2: Ryan Day did talk afterwards in dealing with the defeat 224 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: to the Miami Hurricanes America's team post game. 225 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 3: You know, we got obviously got a team of guys 226 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 3: that you know, have poured a lot into this program. 227 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 3: And you know, some some guys this will be their 228 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 3: last game as Buckeyes, and so it's gonna hurt and 229 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 3: sting and and so you know, I just I want 230 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: to make sure that they still know how much we 231 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 3: appreciate everything they do and everything. 232 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 2: They've done for this program. 233 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 3: But it hurts right now, and it hurts for those guys, 234 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 3: and so you know, they put a lot of work 235 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 3: and time into this thing. So it's our job as 236 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: coaches to make sure that, you know, we figure out 237 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 3: ways to put them in a situation to be successful. 238 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 3: So at the end of the day, it's our responsibility 239 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 3: to do that, and we got to take a hard 240 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 3: look at that and figure out what it is that 241 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: we got to get done to get better. 242 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 2: That was Ryan Day, Ohio State head coach. Now it 243 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: does put to test the theory, beat Michigan or win 244 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: a national title. 245 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll honestly like the only game that mattered this 246 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: year was November twenty ninth, twenty twenty five. 247 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 2: And ultimately the last win of their season. 248 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, And I don't know if that I felt 249 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: it played a role into the Indiana game. I don't 250 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: know if it played a role into this game. I 251 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: think that they were further along with it. I do 252 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: think that some people thought it's playoff time, just turn it. 253 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: They'll turn it on again and go on a run. 254 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: Like we have one playoff of evidence that Ohio State 255 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: like would do this sort of thing, and that was 256 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: last year. But I think people just assumed maybe they 257 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: would go on a run again because it's playoff time 258 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: and that's what they do, and that never was a reality. 259 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: In fact, Jonas, when you talk about the Michigan win, 260 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: the Michigan team that they beat wasn't close to the 261 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: previous Michigan teams that had won the last four against 262 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: Ohio State. Indiana did a good job along the offensive 263 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: and defensive lines in the Big Ten title game, and 264 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: Miami had an edge like their defensive line last night, 265 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: was able to get after Julian saying and at times 266 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: keep the run game and check the only reason I'm 267 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: not trying to make this Ohio State postgame. But the 268 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: point is this, They're losing Brian Hartline's cos offensive coordinator 269 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: and he's going to South Florida as their head coach. 270 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: And Brian Hartline's the reason that Jeremiah Smith is there. 271 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: He's the reason that Marvin Harrison Junior went there, a 272 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: Mecca Abuka and all of these wide receivers. But sometimes 273 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: you have to win along the line of scrimmage. And 274 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: that's going to be interesting to see how Ohio State 275 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: carries on. Are you still able to bring in the 276 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 1: type of talent at the receiver position with now your 277 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: main guy in Tampa or now are you going to 278 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 1: be able to try to pivot to try to strengthen 279 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: those lines, because that was the best part of the 280 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: Urban Meyer run. They were good up front, and they 281 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: ran the football and they had some of the best 282 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: defensive linemen that you'd ever seen. That that was the recipe, 283 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: and I still think that's the recipe in college football. 284 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,719 Speaker 1: So that's what's going to be interesting to see from 285 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: Ohio State from here on out, because I think the 286 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: last two games, it didn't matter if you had Carnell Playton, 287 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: Jerremi Smith, and if Chris Henry Junior is coming in 288 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: next year. It's what you do up front that's going 289 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: to be the real big test for Ryan Day. 290 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 2: And also, and let me defend you in this regard, 291 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 2: if there's people listening that go, oh, well, this is 292 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 2: Ohio State postgame, I'm sorry, that's the story here. Did 293 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: anybody see Miami's first edition of their appearance in the 294 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 2: College Football Playoff this year? That was one of the 295 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 2: worst games I've ever seen in my life. Okay, Miami 296 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: and Texas A and m set football back all three 297 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: phases at least thirty five years. That was awful. So 298 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: yet nobody expected this. It's why they were as big 299 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 2: of an underdog as they were going into it. So 300 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 2: the fact that the defending national champions, who you would 301 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: assume would have a red ass would come in trying 302 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 2: to win another title, losing to Indiana and the way 303 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: that they did, where all these fluky things happened and 304 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: Indiana pulled off the miracle and what like, Yeah, that 305 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 2: is the story. This was a big upset. This isn't 306 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: look if Oregon loses to Texas tech like text TeX's 307 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: a slight underdog and we're you know, we can get 308 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 2: into the Dan Lanning comments and all that, but this 309 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 2: was a big upset. A lot of people didn't think 310 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: Miami could do this. Congratulations to them, but you do 311 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 2: have to start to look at what happens now because 312 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: there was a lot of conversation about k in Ohio 313 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 2: State Michigan. They did, and now the conversation becomes a 314 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 2: real one. You mentioned Brian Hartline leaving. You mentioned like 315 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 2: it feels like they've got their quarterback of the future, 316 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: but if he doesn't have the guys to throw to, 317 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 2: then what I think all that's pertinent? 318 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Miami had eighty five percent of America behind them. 319 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: You know, those four quarterfinal games that we have, the 320 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: three that we have coming up today, not one can 321 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: match the result of what last night was like even 322 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: if if Alabama beats Indiana, like it's like we're like, oh, 323 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: of course it's Alabama, you know, right, or the Indiana wins, 324 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: it's all right, the Indiana's rolling. But to your point 325 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: about Texas Tech and Oregon and the same thing with 326 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: the SEC rematch. If all Miss beats Georgia in an upset, 327 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: you're like, wow, Lincoln and really maybe wasn't needed there. 328 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: But like this is the this is the big one, 329 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: just because of Ohio State, because of the Big Ten, 330 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: because they're the defending national champions, and because, let's be honest, 331 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: everybody pretty much hates them and people are cheering with 332 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: Michael Irvan because of that. 333 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, bell toa ass, Dan, all right, bta.

Great. 469 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: Those same people probably came up with the Week eighteen 470 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: schedule in the NFL. Oh, geez, are you are you jacked? 471 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: For raven Steelers. 472 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 2: Here's my problem with the Ravens and the Steelers. All Right. 473 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 2: I want to say this as somebody who admittedly picked 474 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 2: the Ravens to go to the Super Bowl. All Right, 475 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 2: So the Ravens and Packers were my Super Bowl pick 476 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: before the season, and my problem with the Ravens is 477 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: that I'm pot committed to it, so I just have 478 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 2: to keep on rioting with them and acknowledging at the 479 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 2: same time they're not good. Like at some point, like 480 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: we can all stop with this. Yeah, but you know 481 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 2: what if they can just get this right. It's week eighteen, Okay, 482 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 2: we got four months of evidence, Like we know who's good, 483 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 2: we know who's not good, and they're not very good, 484 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 2: and neither is Pittsburgh. 485 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: Everybody just wants to think that it's going to be 486 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: the run Brigade with Lamar Jackson, who hasn't Joan. He's 487 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: been able to run since week four in Derrick Henry, 488 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: and the problem is with your theory, Jonas is Derrick 489 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: Henry last week showed that he could run. So now 490 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 1: it gives ammunition to all the people who experts think 491 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: the Raiders or the Ravens have something going that now 492 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: is when it turns out, Yeah, me, I'm one of that. 493 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, of course I take de bait. Every turn 494 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 2: is yes, Hey that stripper really likes me. No she doesn't, 495 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: she does not. Okay, you are a paycheck your cash. 496 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 2: That's it. She does not care. And I'm the same 497 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 2: guy fall fix for this every time. And I'll let 498 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 2: you know this right now. I'm probably gonna bet on 499 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 2: the Ravens. I probably am, and they're probably gonna kick 500 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 2: me right in the nuts like they've done all year long. 501 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 2: That's probably how it's gonna go. And then the conversation 502 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 2: becomes the future of Aaron Rodgers. That's the other big 503 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 2: storyline that goes along with all this. Mike Tomlin, the 504 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 2: head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, he spoke about this 505 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: potentially being the final game for Aaron Rodgers. Let's say 506 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 2: a listen, I don't know that. 507 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 6: I've taken time to ponder that. I'm just committed to 508 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 6: making sure that it's not. He's certainly been an awesome 509 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 6: contributor to our efforts, and not only from a couent 510 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 6: perspective and an experienced person, but just his professionalism, his 511 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 6: relationship with the game, his love for his teammates, and 512 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 6: his willingness to help them grow and get better and 513 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 6: gain better understanding each and every day has been It's 514 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 6: been cool to. 515 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: Be a part of. Here's what I do know if 516 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 2: this week is an Aaron Rodgers final game the next 517 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: week will be so there is that this is a and. 518 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: That is the point that I just don't understand about 519 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: this scheduling. And when I look at the Saturday schedule, 520 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: it's the same thing for the Buccaneers and Panthers, right Like, 521 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: there's just Ravens and Steelers have way more cachet than 522 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers and Panthers. 523 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 2: And I don't mean to sound who are the Bucks 524 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 2: and the Panthers? Right that division still exists? Oh, I 525 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:46,640 Speaker 2: had no idea. 526 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: As we go to the NFC Mouth, the forty nine 527 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: in Seahawks game may not have the higher stakes to it, 528 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 1: but it's just a better football game, right Like, it's 529 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: just it's I don't know why, and I know why 530 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: they would shove the NFC East down our throats where 531 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: it's a Cowboys, Giants, Eagles, Cowboys, Giants Eagles, Commanders Cowboys 532 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: because of those markets. And we all know growing up 533 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: that the NFC East got so much favoritism with TV 534 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: and in the broadcast windows. Not so much now, but 535 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: it's still there. Like it's still like the Giants get 536 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: a bunch of more primetime games than they probably should, 537 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: and I feel like it's the same way with the 538 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: Steelers and Ravens. And while it may at one point 539 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: have been the greatest rivalry in the NFL going on 540 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: at that time, not of all time, but going on 541 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: at that time, that's not this. And you're absolutely right 542 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: of if the Steelers win, yeah, there's just one more 543 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: like this. Yeah, now is where you take your victory 544 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: lap and go around the field and celebrate, because it's 545 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: not gonna happen after the wild card game. 546 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 2: It's it's the one and done. And that's the problem 547 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 2: I have with Pittsburgh. And look is it would it 548 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 2: be nice to have Rogers in the playoffs once again? 549 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: Of course, like, yeah, that would be great. He's one 550 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 2: of the all time greats, whatever you feel about him, 551 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 2: To have him out there, that would be awesome. The 552 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 2: problem is it's the same Steelers we've seen the last 553 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 2: ten years that they've gone to the playoffs, and what 554 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 2: are the last ten years they've gone to the playoffs? 555 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 2: Look like they get in and they're won and done. 556 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 2: We've seen this story so many times before. And I 557 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 2: would agree that Rogers has been an upgrade over what 558 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 2: they've had at quarterback, but let's not pretend like he's 559 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 2: lighting the league on fire. And I don't say that 560 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 2: to be disrespectful to him or anything. I just I 561 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 2: look at the offense and I go, all right, like 562 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 2: if Jalen Warren isn't, you know, ripping off a fifty 563 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 2: sixty yard run, Like what are we talking about here, 564 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 2: Like Kenneth gainwell, if he's not. And then DK Metcalf, 565 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 2: you know, is beating up some goofball in Detroit, so 566 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 2: he's not available. It's like, so I look at it 567 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 2: and I go, oh, yeah, it's all on the line. 568 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 2: And it was, you know, the lead surprising thing in 569 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 2: the world that NBC was going to roll that out 570 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 2: for their Sunday night football game. I totally understand. I 571 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: get it. If I had to pick, I think Baltimore's 572 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,640 Speaker 2: probably the more likely to make a run. But I'm 573 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 2: not confident in that. 574 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I am not either, because it's a it's a 575 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: stretch of three games, and I think that last week 576 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: against Green Bay fooled people. I also think that people 577 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: were fooled that these coaches really have their jobs on 578 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: the line, that that that the loser could go home 579 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: really with especially with Pittsburgh like Tomin's not going anywhere. 580 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: I mean, I know they lost last week to the Browns, 581 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: but you can you can blame it on DK Metcalf 582 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: if you want, you can blame it on Aaron Rodgers. 583 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 2: Jeered Adam Schefter said. Adam Schefter said, I think it 584 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 2: was on the Pat McAfee show starring AJ Hawk, and 585 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 2: Adam Schefter said, well, you know, uh yeah, there's a 586 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 2: there's a chance that one of these guys could be 587 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 2: in TV next year, that they could just walk in, 588 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: that the loser could walk in and say, you know what, 589 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 2: I think it's time. Yeah, there's a chance that could 590 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 2: happen every year. Okay, if they decided they want it out, 591 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: there's a chance they could do that at any time. Like, 592 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if you're aware of that. I love 593 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 2: every network. Every network would be hello, is this the 594 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 2: Tomlin residence? Hello? 595 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: Is John Harbaugh in there? We're knocking down your door, Like, 596 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: this guy is made for TV. I love all the 597 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: made for TV guys that aren't made for TV, you know, like, 598 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: let's just put them in the booth now. I don't know, 599 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: we signed him to a five year deal. Let's just 600 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: get rid of them. Like that's remember they. 601 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 2: Put Bruce Arians in the booth. They're like, hey, Bruce, 602 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 2: you can't curse. Oh all right, see you guys. 603 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians also sounded like Bob Ross, like you had 604 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: the painting voice. Like if you actually listen to Bruce Arians. 605 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a way we could. I 606 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: highly doubt in our system we have Bruce Arians, but 607 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: if we do, I always felt like he sounded like 608 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: Bob Ross. But yeah, it's a ba. When he's done, 609 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: he's straight to the boat. 610 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 2: Yeah that personality. Yeah, how about that mouth? Yeah, that 611 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 2: kind of goes part of it. 612 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The one thing with 613 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: the Ravens that I wondered because I still don't think 614 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: that John harb I was going anywhere. But did you 615 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: find it funny that over the last couple of weeks, 616 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: all of a sudden these stories kind of started to 617 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: pop out. Oh, y, guess what, John Harbaugh's not not 618 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: listening to him? Blah blah blah. And then all of 619 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: a sudden, Baltimore Sun column Lamar sleeps in meetings. Yeah, 620 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: Mike Preston, practice practice is PM only no am. Because 621 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: Lamar is still sleeping and he's up playing video, yes, 622 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: up late last night. Now, there may be concerns and 623 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: there may be something going on there that to me 624 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: seemed contrived at the time. So when you're talking about 625 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: is there something going on? Could there be something going on? 626 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: I thought that there there was more to that. How 627 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: are you going to fire Mike Tomlin or have Mike 628 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: Tomlin move on after this year when it hasn't happened 629 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: in the previous four years, you know, Like I just 630 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, like why now is the time? Like 631 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: we're Enough's enough. I don't think it's a James Franklin 632 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: sort of thing at all. I think that there's way 633 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: more equity that Tomlin has with this than you would 634 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: have in that college football situation. But it's when you're 635 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: talking about I just don't think that this is a 636 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: loser goes home and ends up next to you know, 637 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: Nate Burlison on the NFL CBS. 638 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 2: I'm with you, and I also think the there is 639 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 2: more too, I guess. I guess there's more validity I 640 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 2: would buy into to there being problems in Baltimore than 641 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, because man, like there was way too many 642 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 2: details given in that article by Mike Preston, and everybody 643 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 2: that I've talked to is like, no, Mike Preston's pretty connected, 644 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: Like he's like, he's not going to just pick that up, 645 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 2: like that came from somewhere, and it's well, he's up 646 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 2: playing video games and he's you know, he needs to 647 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 2: he needs to, you know, be training at the facility 648 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 2: and he needs to he needs to be there and 649 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: not show up for one day at camp and then 650 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 2: leave because he's got an illness. Like I think yesterday 651 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 2: was the first Wednesday Lamar Jackson had practiced in like 652 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 2: two months. It had either been an illness or like 653 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: he's always got the flu. There's always some like there's 654 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 2: always remember that one random Monday night game where he's 655 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: still trying to tell everybody, Oh, no, I didn't have 656 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 2: to use the bathroom, Like dude, you almost craft your 657 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 2: pants in the middle of a game, Like I why 658 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 2: else were you there? Like like what you had to 659 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 2: go back and check your phone? Like what do you 660 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: mean you left the middle of a Monday night game 661 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 2: and ran to the bathroom for what other reason? It 662 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 2: just there's there's. 663 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: Something there, yeah, absolutely, and it's it's it may have 664 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: built up over these couple of years. It's not just 665 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: a vet day off like certain vets get day off, 666 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: you know, days off. Tom Brady, all right, we don't 667 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: need you on a Wednesday when you've missed half the 668 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: season and you're trying to get back in. He's going 669 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: to do a limit walk through. Yeah, Like, I'm just 670 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: not there yet. We're not at that point. 671 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 2: That's why I look at it. I go, that's the 672 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 2: one that is the more intriguing of the two. Pittsburgh. 673 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 2: This is just what Pittsburgh is, Like, it just it's 674 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 2: what they've been as you as you said, it's what 675 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 2: they've been for a long time. Now, Like if you 676 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 2: were going to do it this year, why not the 677 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 2: year before the year before that. Nothing has really changed 678 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 2: in Baltimore. It just feels like that stuff gets out 679 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 2: there because somebody wants it out there. Yeah, and and 680 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 2: now you get to see, like how does this play out? 681 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, apparently he's it looks like he's 682 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: gonna play Sunday night. So if he comes out Sunday 683 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 2: night and you know, he looks off or it looks 684 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 2: like there's more to that storyline than I think. You 685 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 2: know what ends up happening with Pittsburgh, because I think 686 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:30,959 Speaker 2: we know how this is gonna go with Pittsburgh. If 687 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 2: they win, they're going to be out in the first round, 688 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: and if they don't win, they're just gonna roll it 689 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: back next year.

That was 709 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 2: a bad song, but what I grew up with. 710 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, my road friends a hef a Monday night. 711 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 2: Rocking Rando France. 712 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 3: I was like, what is that? 713 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 2: Like? 714 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 4: Who wrote that? 715 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: How did you get this thing start? 716 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 2: Like if you if?
