We just 9 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:43,639 Speaker 2: got a thriller in South Bend. De Sager just told you. 10 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 2: But Ohio State scores with one second left on the clock, 11 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: Orse somewhere around there. Unbelievable finish, unbelievable game. They survive 12 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 2: the top ten matchup against Notre Dame. Seventeen to fourteen 13 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: is the final score. Jason Martin, what's going on? 14 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: A man? 15 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: How are you? 16 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm good man. You know, we had all of this 17 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: great football throughout the day, and we knew some of 18 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: it would turn out to be a dud, but we 19 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: did get bookended today with some outstanding stuff. Now, I 20 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: know there's some games going on and maybe there's more 21 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: to come, but you got Florida State Clemson to open 22 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: the day that goes to overtime. That's a great game. 23 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: And then what we just witnessed in South Bend was 24 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: just those were both really hard fought, really physical, just 25 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: nail biting kind of games, and that's why we love 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: college football. But it was awesome to see that thing 27 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: come to an end about ten minutes ago and know 28 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 1: that the first thing that I am tasked to do 29 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: after that is to jump on the radio and talk 30 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: to the country about that football game. 31 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's weird, you know, I mean usually, I mean 32 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: in this time slot, stuff's always happening, and we're privileged 33 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: to do this. I don't know what the take is 34 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: on Ohio State Notre Dame. I mean, first of all, 35 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: for people who missed, it comes down to the wire. 36 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 2: Ohio State is on the road in South Bend. By 37 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: the way, this was one of many many great games today. 38 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: I shouldn't mention that, but this was obviously the headliner. 39 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 2: And yes, it comes down to the final seconds. Ohio 40 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 2: State completes an incredible play. Again, by the way, the 41 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: final score was seventeen to fourteen. I should specify that, 42 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 2: but I'm just trying to set the scene here for 43 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 2: what happened. 44 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: In the one yes that you're talking about. 45 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: That's exactly what I was gonna say. So they trail 46 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: obviously goes out saying fourteen to ten. They get the 47 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: ball back about a minute twenty five left, go the 48 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: length of the field, and as Jason reference, there was 49 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: a third and nineteen play on the Notre Dame twenty two. 50 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 2: Kyle McCord, the player who is technically and only his 51 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: really his what second career starts it's his fourth, but 52 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 2: only a second since being named the starter, gets the 53 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: ball inside the five, and then Ryan Day, who was 54 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 2: criticized for some play calling stuff earlier in the game. 55 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: They decide on the final play what essentially amounts to 56 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: win or go home. They decide to run the ball. 57 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: They give it to Chip train them excuse me, a 58 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: one yard touchdown score as Ohio State survives. Like I said, 59 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: I just I don't, Jason, I don't know what the 60 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: take is. 61 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: I mean. 62 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: And by the way, Ryan Day and his postgame sound, now, 63 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: unfortunately we're a few guys down tonight, I don't know 64 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: if we'll be able to get that sound. But in 65 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: his post game you can see the emotion. You can 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 2: hear the emotion calling out the critics. That includes apparently 67 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 2: Lou Holtz, who said something this week that I that 68 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: must have slipped through through the cracks as far as 69 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: I'm concerned. But former Notre Dame head coach called out 70 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: Ohio State and Ryan Day in the post game. But 71 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: I'm rambling, Jason cut me off here. The bottom line is, 72 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: you could see how much this meant to Ryan Day. 73 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: You could see how much it meant to Ohio State 74 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 2: as they hold on to win seventeen to fourteen. 75 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, it was a huge game, and it 76 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: was a top ten matchup. It was two undefeated teams 77 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: that both have aspirations to be there in the end 78 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: with the final four in a college football playoff. And 79 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: I don't know after watching it which team I thought 80 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: was better, but it didn't matter. I do think that 81 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: in terms of just pure all skill talent, then yes, 82 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: Ohio State is a better football team. But you saw 83 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: a very well coached team on the Notre Dame side, 84 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: and I was just impressed with both defenses for the 85 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: most part during the game and just kind of the 86 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: flow of all of it. But apparently Ryan Day also 87 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: went off on Lou Holtz in pregame as well. So 88 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: here's what Holts said. Let me go ahead and tell 89 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: you this real fast, because I went ahead and found 90 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,239 Speaker 1: it because I didn't know he had said anything either, 91 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: but he said this on the Pat McFee show. He said, 92 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: Notre Dame wins by ten. I believe that they're a 93 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: better football team in the Ohio State. Let me tell 94 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: you why. We have the best O line in the country. 95 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: Sam Hartman won't get his dirty his jersey dirty all year. 96 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: He has time to throw the ball. We have great 97 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: running backs. Team is averaging ten yards of carry. We 98 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: have great receivers, so we're set. You look at coach Day, 99 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: and I coached at Ohio State under Woody Hayes. We 100 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: won the national championship when I was there. I'm proud 101 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: of that. However, Day has lost to Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, 102 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: and Michigan twice, and everybody that beats him does so 103 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: because they're more physical than Ohio State, and I think 104 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: Notre Dame will take that same approach. That's that's what 105 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: Lou Holtz said. 106 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what the sager quick on his 107 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 2: feet with the sound from Ryan Day, I'm gonna toss 108 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 2: over the news desk to Sager. Has that sound give 109 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: us one second, we're efforting the sound. 110 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 4: I cannot believe. This is a tough team right here. 111 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 4: We're proud to be from Ohio. It's always been Ohio 112 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 4: against the world. It'll continue to be Ohio against the world. 113 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 4: But I'll tell you what, I love those kids who 114 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 4: got a tough team. 115 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 2: Thank you very much to Sager. 116 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: And I cannot believe by the way was in rev 117 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: that was the tail end of him say he's like 118 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: what lou hol said. I cannot believe that's that's what 119 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: that that take. 120 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 2: But no, no, it's okay. I just think it speaks 121 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 2: to you know, we we we do this thing where, 122 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 2: you know, we we try to make every game out 123 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 2: to be like I think coaches especially, like it's just 124 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: one game and it's just not gonna define our season. 125 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 2: You can just hear in that sound, like you could 126 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 2: just hear in the sound how much this game meant 127 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: to Ryan Day, Like that's you know, if I have 128 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: no other takeaway, if I have no other takeaway from 129 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: this game, it's that, yes, Ohio State won. Yes they 130 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 2: very much are in great position going forward, because obviously 131 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: the schedule gets gets continually tough. Penn State obviously later 132 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 2: in the year, Michigan later in the year. You know, 133 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 2: you have obviously some at Wisconsin. Whatever. The point I'm 134 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 2: trying to make is that it's just funny because I 135 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: think sometimes, like we even in the media, coaches tell 136 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 2: us all we block out the noise, We don't hear 137 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 2: what you guys are saying. And that just shows me 138 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: how much this meant to him and how these guys 139 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 2: grow do hear what people say. And I think that 140 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 2: sound again just shows to me, Jason, how much this 141 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: one meant to Ohio State and two Ryan Day. 142 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they knew they had the world watching this one. 143 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: We were all super excited about this kind of being 144 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: the nightcapper to this great day of all these ranked games. 145 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: And I think the one thing about Ohio State to 146 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: this point in the season was Kyle McCord has played quarterback, 147 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: but he's not been memorable, Like there's been nothing about 148 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: him existing as the quarterback of Ohio State that has 149 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,559 Speaker 1: stood out. And usually that's a position we know very well, 150 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: We know the athlete play in that position, we know 151 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: about their future, we have question marks, and then we 152 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: have answers and all these things about him. But McCord's 153 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: kind of nonscript like most people don't really know anything 154 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: about him. I will say this, twenty one to thirty 155 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: seven for two forty, he didn't have a touchdown, but 156 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: he also didn't have an interception in the game. I 157 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: thought more more times than I like the way he 158 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: threw the football tonight. I don't think there's anything necessarily 159 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: spectacular about him, at least at this stage. But I 160 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: think that you could easily have thrown that football game away, 161 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: and I will say that he almost did. There was 162 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: one that went through the defender's hand on that last 163 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: drive that it would have been a really tough place. 164 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: It's not like it was a dropped interception. It was 165 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: a high ball, but that obviously would have ended the 166 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: game in the other direction. But you've got that guy 167 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: in that situation and he's able to make the strike 168 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: on third and nineteen and actually help you carve up 169 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: that field on that last drove. That's pretty impressive in 170 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: that circumstance, in a hostile environment, in a game where 171 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people are gonna crumble. 172 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: Well, and I was gonna say too. You know, you 173 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: mentioned that, you know, there's nothing like he doesn't pop 174 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: off the screen the way that say Justin Fields did 175 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 2: when he played with Ohio State or CJ. Stroudd. Here's 176 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 2: the thing, though, maybe that's not who Ohio State is 177 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: this year, right, And you know, listen and part of 178 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: Ryan Day's comments after the game was that basically this 179 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: program's gotten whatever blah blah blah blah. You look at 180 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 2: what that defense did tonight. I mean the defense that 181 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 2: Notre Dame offense has been unstoppable all year. They hold 182 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: Sam Hartman and the passing game to one hundred and 183 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 2: seventy five yards passing. The run game was relatively effective, 184 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: but you hold Notre Dame to fourteen points, and you 185 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 2: hold them to seven points through the first three quarters. 186 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: So you know, maybe we just you know, and this 187 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: is the fun part about doing what we do, right, 188 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: is that there's different ways to get to the same 189 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: end result. And you know, tonight's not the night to 190 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: break down where they they rank on the Big ten 191 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 2: scale and what does it mean for Michigan, doesn't mean 192 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 2: for Penn State all that, But maybe this is just 193 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: a different Ohio State team. Maybe they don't have the 194 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 2: superstar quarterback, but maybe by the way, we know how 195 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: good Marvin Marvin Harrison is a Mechabuka, the quote unquote 196 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 2: number two receiver who's gonna go in the first round 197 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 2: of the draft, had seven catches for ninety eight yards. Today, 198 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 2: Trevion Henderson, the running back who was banged up for 199 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 2: most of the last year, had over one hundred and 200 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 2: four yards rushing. Maybe this is just a different team 201 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 2: than what we are used to with Ohio State. That 202 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 2: doesn't make it a good thing or a bad thing. 203 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 2: It just makes it a different thing. But when you 204 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 2: reference you know, Kyle McCord being solid, being steady, maybe 205 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 2: that's who they are. And by the way, maybe that's 206 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 2: a good thing for Ohio State this year. Maybe they 207 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 2: don't have to score forty forty five points to win 208 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 2: every game like sometimes they have in the past. 209 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think that's relevant. I also think 210 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: they kind of remind you a little bit of Michigan 211 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: like three years ago, don't they like because they don't 212 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: have a quarterback that leaps off the page. But they've 213 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: got a great defense and they run the ball pretty 214 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: well generally. So if you've got a quarterback out there 215 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: that and it sounds bad to say this, but if 216 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: he's just careful, if he's just a good caretaker out 217 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: there who can make a throw once in a while, 218 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: and he made more than once in a while, I 219 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 1: mean that that was a defensive battle between those two teams, 220 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: but there were some plays being made there as well. 221 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: They've got guys in the receiving game, but as long 222 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: as McCord's not out there throwing it to the other 223 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: team over and over again, they're always going to be 224 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: in it because of their defense. That's that's kind of 225 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: why they remind me a little of Ohio State or 226 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: maybe the Penn State teams when they didn't have quarterbacks, 227 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: but they had great defenses. And that's fine, Like you 228 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: can win that way to an extent. I guess the 229 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: only question I have is when you go up against 230 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: a high, high, high powered offense, how much are you 231 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: gonna put on that defense or is the offense really 232 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: gonna come to play on those days. I don't know 233 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: that we have fully seen that yet because they haven't 234 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: been tasked to deal with both sides of the ball 235 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: in that direction. 236 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess my only counter that would be. I 237 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 2: don't know that they will face a more high powered 238 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 2: offense than they saw tonight. I mean, listen, Michigan, you know, 239 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: and you know, we haven't talked about them because they haven' 240 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 2: played anybody, but they did not look spectacular against Rutgers today. 241 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: Penn State obviously took care of business against Iowa. We 242 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: can make fun of Iowa. They're a solid defensive team. 243 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 2: I know, Penn State won thirty one nothing. I'm not 244 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 2: sold that they're definitively a more high powered offense than 245 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 2: Notre Dames. So maybe that's maybe that's the counter to 246 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 2: that is that, you know, Sam Hartman might be the 247 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 2: best quarterback they see all year. Really quickly, Jason, I 248 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 2: do want to just jump to the Notre Dame perspective. Yeah, 249 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 2: I mean, like I know, Notre Dame doesn't genuinely receive 250 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: a ton of sympathy on the national scale. I mean, 251 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: they're not a sympathetic program, but man, you know, I 252 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: mean you look at this program through the years, there's 253 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: been so many times in these big games where they 254 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 2: just weren't good enough. And so my only takeaway is 255 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 2: I feel bad because I thought they were good enough. 256 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: I thought they played well enough to win. I want 257 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 2: to give credit to Ohio State. This isn't to discredit 258 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 2: them for you know, finding a way to win in 259 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 2: a low scoring game. This is Ohio State I'm talking 260 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 2: about now. But you look at Notre Dame. You look 261 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 2: at the fact that they're at home. You look at 262 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: the fact that literally with under five seconds to go, 263 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: they had the lead in lost in regulation, they were 264 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 2: one play away from winning. It is worth noting, by 265 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 2: the way, some videos coming out from the game winning score, 266 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: Notre Dame actual only had ten players on the field 267 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 2: at that point. Multiple accounts are kind of sharing that 268 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: right now on social media. So I just bring it 269 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 2: up to say, like, man, oh man, oh man, Like 270 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 2: I feel bad for Notre Dame fans. I do. They've 271 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 2: been so close in so many of these games, some 272 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 2: of these big games, they have not been close. But 273 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: this was one they could have won and they just 274 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 2: couldn't pull it out. 275 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's gonna happen to everybody. But you're right, 276 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: that was a game where you were gonna. I don't know, 277 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: this is tough to say, because I know a lot 278 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: of people get joy out of watching certain fan bases lose, 279 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: But I would have felt pretty bad for either fan 280 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: base in this one because of the way the game 281 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: was playing out, because of the circumstances and the story 282 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: of the football game itself. It was gonna be one 283 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: of those games where somebody was gonna have to lose 284 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: and it was gonna be unfortunate. It kind of reminds 285 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: you of a little of the Georgia Ohio State game, yeah, 286 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: in the College football playoff, where it just you hated 287 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: to see a team lose when such a just a 288 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: wonderful thing had taken place, and you had seen Ohio 289 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: State just play incredible football and just couple of breaks 290 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: win against them late and they end up losing that ballgame. 291 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: But you saw Stroud playing a game of his life 292 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: and things like that. That's what it was. I mean, 293 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 1: was that the best game you ever see Sam Hartman play? 294 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: Of course not, but he was playing against a defense 295 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 1: that he's not gonna see again most likely throughout this season. 296 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: It was impressive how they bottled them up and just 297 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: made everything difficult. In the third quarter. I swore I 298 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: had not seen anything vertical at all. Just felt like 299 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: every time I looked up Notre Dame was running for 300 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: a yard and then getting knocked down or breaking a 301 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: tackle to get a second yard. It just seemed like everything, 302 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: every yard was at a premium. But that was true 303 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: really for both of these two teams. It opened up 304 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: a little bit late, but this was just a well 305 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: played game and generally a well coached game on both sides, 306 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: and one team was eventually going to have to win 307 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: because sixty minutes is all they can play if they're 308 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: not tied. 309 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I tend to agree with you. Is you know, 310 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 2: I know we're reacting in real time again for people 311 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: just joining us. Ohio State beats Notre Dame seven teen 312 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: to fourteen on essentially the final play of the game, 313 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 2: a short yardage play. They could have called a pass, 314 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 2: They call a run. They get the victory. And Jason, 315 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 2: I mean, like, I don't think there's some earth shattering 316 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: even if Ohio State had lost, I don't think there 317 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 2: was some earth shattering fire. This guy, this isn't gonna work. 318 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: I saw two really good teams on Saturday night. One 319 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 2: had to win, one had to lose.

What he said about our team, 337 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 4: What he said about our team. I cannot believe. This 338 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 4: is a tough team right here. We're proud to be 339 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 4: from Ohio and it's always been Ohio against the world, 340 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 4: and it'll continue to be Ohio against the world. 341 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what. 342 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 4: I love those kids who get a tough team. What 343 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 4: did they prove to you tonight in this victory that 344 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 4: you'll take away and run with toughness. Tell everybody's questioning 345 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 4: these kids all the time. We had one bad half 346 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 4: the last couple of years. 347 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: That's it. 348 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 4: Everybody wants to question these guys. These guys are warriors 349 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 4: right here to come back and win. This kid right 350 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 4: here to come back and the second half and win. 351 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 4: I'm emotional about this for a reason. A lot of 352 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 4: people question these kids and say a lot of things 353 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 4: about them. 354 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 5: I love them. 355 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 4: When someone attacks your family, to come in and win 356 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 4: like this is special. It's a great win for our 357 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 4: program and a great win for Ohio State. 358 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: That was a fired up Ryan Day as Ohio State 359 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 2: wins in the final second seventeen to fourteen. Jason, I'll say, 360 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 2: I want to get to Colorado, Oregon. But I think 361 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 2: part of that might be that a lot of people 362 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 2: question Ryan Day two. I that was a little like 363 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 2: you calling out them, But I think a lot of 364 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 2: people are calling out him too. By the way, the 365 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 2: whole we've played one bad half in the last couple 366 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 2: of years. 367 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: It's not accurate. 368 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know you lost in home in Orgers. 369 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: Sorry did He's feeling it. I mean I said the 370 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 1: same thing to you before the show start, was just like, no, man, 371 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,959 Speaker 1: we weren't questioning their toughness, we were questioning yours like 372 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: that's that was That was the thing, because we were 373 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: because generally the narrative was they played like you seem 374 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: to coach like it's a little bit too conservative at times. 375 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: I don't think it was a little too conservative. In 376 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: this game. 377 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 2: It wanted fourth down, that they tried to run a 378 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 2: jet sweep. That's right, you know, yeah. 379 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: I I asked that question to you guys in the 380 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: in the chat before the before the show began, as 381 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: the game was going on, I said, is it now 382 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: illegal to do a QB sneak in college football? I mean, 383 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: they had a third and one and a fourth and 384 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: inches and McCord's not exactly the smallest guy I've ever seen, 385 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: and Notre Dame has a history of letting people get 386 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: a quarterback sneak to hurt them badly. So I was 387 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: blown away. As you mentioned, a jet sweep on fourth, 388 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: kind of a weird call on third If it's that close, 389 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: I don't want to turn the ball over and hand 390 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: it backwards to where you have to go further than 391 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: where we started. On a play like that against the defense, 392 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 1: it's a relatively stout I'm going to go forward and 393 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: make them stop me from getting half a foot and 394 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: when they didn't, that to me was a bit of 395 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: a lack of aggression. But yeah, Ryan Day was speaking 396 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: more about himself, I think because a lot of the 397 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: people he's referring to aren't there anymore, first of all, 398 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 1: but again, he was feeling it. It was a big win. 399 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: It was he could celebrate that people will be talking 400 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 1: about Ohio State for the right reasons this week. Holtz. Look, 401 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: when you talk and you get beat down or the 402 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: subject that you were talking about gets beat down, this 403 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: is what happens. And it's very clear that Ryan Day 404 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 1: heard what was said because he said something about it 405 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: in pregame apparently on television also, and then he said 406 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: something right after the game, and they must have turned 407 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 1: it into bulletin board material and that's what athletes do. 408 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: So Marcus Freeman should probably call Lou Holtz and tell 409 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: them to stop talking before we play big games, because 410 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: I don't think that helped their cause. 411 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what, Jason, you talk about. Bulletin 412 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 2: board material. There has been no program that has been 413 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 2: more motivated by bulletin board material than the Colorado Buffaloes. Jason. 414 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 2: Before we get to Oregon's dismantling of Colorado, here's what 415 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 2: Dan Lanning had to say before the game rooted. 416 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:58,479 Speaker 6: In substance, Godflash, rooted in substance. Today we talk with 417 00:19:58,480 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 6: our patch. 418 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: Right every moment. 419 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 5: The Cinderella story. 420 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 7: Is over, man, Right, they're fighting for clicks, we're fighting 421 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 7: for wins. There's a difference, right, there's a difference. 422 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 6: This game ain't gonna be playing in Hollywood. 423 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: It's gonna be played on the grass pan. 424 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 7: It should be playing on the grass Let's go. 425 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: Tell you what Ryan Day did his talking after the game. 426 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: Dan Lanning does it before and time. Yeah, and we'll 427 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 2: get to the halftime sound in a minute. But I'll 428 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 2: tell you what, whatever you think about it, I mean 429 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 2: it clearly worked. Oregon forty two, Colorado six. This was 430 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 2: thirty five nothing at halftime. Don't have all the stats 431 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: in front of me, but I do know that at 432 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: halftime Oregon had more touchdowns five than Colorado had first 433 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 2: downs four. Jason, what did you make of the splattering 434 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 2: of the Colorado Buffaloes in Eugene earlier today. 435 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: Then it went kind of how we thought it was 436 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: going to. I don't know that everybody voiced it, but 437 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: this is what was supposed to happen, outside of Shador 438 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: Sanders and Hunter, who wasn't there because he's got a 439 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: lacerated liver, which by the way, sounds terrible. And we 440 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: saw the hit that caused it last week. I mean, 441 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 1: you saw against Nebraska and then you saw last week 442 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 1: against Colorado State that this is very much a work 443 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: in progress. It's already a success. They're three no, that's 444 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 1: three times as wins they had all of last season, 445 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: and they're not done. They're gonna win more games this year, 446 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 1: but they're not gonna beat Oregon. Oregon's a program that's 447 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: been an institution for I don't know how long in 448 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: college football. This was not one. You weren't going to 449 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,479 Speaker 1: autin and winning this game. You just weren't. They were 450 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: a three touchdown underdog, and I did here before that. 451 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: Dion loved that it was his number, and I love 452 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: that people are thinking this way about us. Well they 453 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: should be, because you're not better at virtually anything than 454 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: Oregon is. You don't have the talent yet that they do. 455 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: You're a program and it's very infant and see, and 456 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 1: this was kind of like this was the this was 457 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: the check. This is where you ran into the boss 458 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 1: where you weren't prepared for it in the video game 459 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: and you had to go back and you know, find 460 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,479 Speaker 1: your way to level up before you step back up 461 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: into that mix. Because this Oregon team was ready for 462 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: prime time. They've been in games like this before. For Colorado, 463 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: coming off that huge television audience, in that big time 464 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: performance last week and to come back, Uh, they just 465 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: weren't able to get up for this. But even if 466 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 1: they were, they just didn't have enough. We knew coming in. 467 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: Their offensive line was a problem. Should Or Sanders was 468 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: sacked three times before the game was like five minutes old. 469 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: You knew one team was just far bigger, far better, 470 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: and just far more advanced than the other one was. 471 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 1: It's not that the Colorado experiments of failure. It's that 472 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: we expected them to go three and zero and then 473 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: go lose badly to Oregon and USC and I still 474 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: think that's what's gonna happen. 475 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. Listen, I'll say that first, I'll say this. 476 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: I think I and maybe you are like the only 477 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 2: neutral Dion Sanders people going like, I think you and 478 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 2: I are both kind of tempered, Like I actually really 479 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 2: enjoy it. I actually think he's done a good coaching 480 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: job this year because I don't think that they are 481 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 2: very talented out It's not that I don't think that 482 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 2: they're talented, but but I'll just share some numbers that 483 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,360 Speaker 2: I pulled earlier today because I was curious looking this up. 484 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 2: There are one hundred and thirty three teams in FBS 485 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 2: football right now. Okay, Colorado came into today, so these 486 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 2: numbers are probably worse. After Out of one hundred and 487 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 2: thirty three teams, they were ranked one hundred and twenty 488 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 2: fifth in total defense, one hundred and twenty ninth in 489 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 2: rushing offense, and one hundred and thirtieth in sacks. Allout, Jason, 490 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 2: I'm not a x's and o's guru here, but when 491 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: you can't defend anybody, when you can't run the football 492 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 2: because the O line can't run, block or protect the quarterback, 493 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 2: like this is kind of what happens when you play 494 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 2: a complete team, and a complete team that was clearly motivated. 495 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 2: I think the thing if there's a silver lining for Colorado. 496 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 2: I think the silver lining is that it's clear that 497 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 2: there is a lot of playing time to be had, 498 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 2: and that is the kind of team that Deon Sanders 499 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: is trying to build at Colorado. I think he's gonna 500 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 2: get there. He said after the game, this is the 501 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 2: worst that we're ever gonna be, so you better come 502 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: get us now. And I think that that Oregon, they 503 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: just look what I think Colorado wants to look like 504 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 2: here over the next three, four five years, I said 505 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: after the game. My first reaction was, you know, I 506 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 2: think I don't want to say it's the best thing that 507 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 2: could have ever happened to Colorado, but I Deon Sanders 508 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 2: in on the bus ride back to the airport should 509 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: have been texting every five star offensive lineman and defensive lineman, saying, 510 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 2: you saw Little Wayne last week, you saw the Rock 511 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 2: last week. Come be part of what you're doing. I know, 512 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 2: by the way, there's plenty of playing time to be 513 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,239 Speaker 2: had here. So that's really my only takeaway is, like 514 00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 2: you and I remember talking before the season. I said, 515 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 2: we both said, like, it isn't inconceivable that this team 516 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 2: starts one in four when you factor in TCU within 517 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 2: the opener Nebraska and then of course Oregon today, USC 518 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 2: at home next week, and so nothing has changed from 519 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 2: my perspective. I think, if anything, they've really overachieved through 520 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: three weeks, but that shows you how far they have 521 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 2: to go if they really truly want to be a lead. 522 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: I think that recruiting point is a million percent true, 523 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: and I think that's I mean, I didn't think about 524 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: it from that perspective. I kind of went the old 525 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: school route and thought, if I'm Dion, like you never 526 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: want to lose. But there was a reality check moment 527 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: today and it wasn't necessarily for Dion, because I think 528 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: Dion was fully aware. But I think maybe it's possible 529 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,719 Speaker 1: that some of the players were starting to feel themselves 530 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: a little bit, not because of anything I saw, but 531 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 1: just because it would be natural to start feeling yourself 532 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: a little bit when you're three and zero and you're 533 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: kind of the bell of the ball and everybody's talking 534 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: about you left and right. Today was the moment where 535 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: Dion can go into practice tomorrow or on Monday and say, 536 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: I told you we had a lot of work to do. 537 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: Now let's get to work like that's what the current guys. 538 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: But your point's more about the future, and it's exactly right. 539 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: You call him up and you're like, hey, you saw 540 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: what happened in Audson. This is why we need you, brother, 541 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,439 Speaker 1: This is why we need you. Come be part of 542 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: the show. And you mentioned the celebrities, and you mentioned everything, 543 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: and you mentioned the entertainment value and how everybody's putting 544 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: cameras all over the Colorado program. Say never, you know, 545 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: never let it be said that NFL scouts aren't going 546 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: to know your name if you play at Colorado because 547 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: the cameras are going to be here. He's got a 548 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: lot to sell, and you're right, one of the most 549 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: important things he has to sell is, dude, you can 550 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: get in on the ground floor of the rebirth of 551 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: Apple basically right now, because everybody's gonna be continuing to 552 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: talk about us, but it's brand new. Next year is 553 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: going to be year two of the prime experience. Come 554 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: here and be a part of this. People will know 555 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: your name like it's gonna be something that he can sell. 556 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: So I don't think this was all bad because it 557 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: did remind his players this is the process. This ain't easy, 558 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: and there are people out there who are better than 559 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: you and want you to know it. It's going to 560 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: be hard and for the future. I think it's good too, 561 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: And I think it just reminded us that what we've 562 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: seen has been fun and cool. But this is not 563 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: a team that needs to be talked about in the 564 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: upper echelons of the sport. 565 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think most people who understand the sport 566 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 2: but you know, understand that aspect of it. And I 567 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: think if anything, you know again, they've overachieved. Now the 568 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 2: goal is get Boil eligible, get those extra practices, and 569 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 2: go hit that portal really hard, and go hit the 570 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 2: recruiting really hard.

I was trying to quote Ryan Day 582 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 2: in my head, but I couldn't remember what he said. 583 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 2: Why'd you doubt me? And Jason Martin to Sager, why 584 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 2: don't you doubt us? I'm glad to against the world. 585 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 2: Oh sorry. 586 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 8: The cut that he was referring to of old coach 587 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 8: Lou Holds when he talked postgame tonight Ohio State one 588 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 8: at Notre Dame seventeen fourteen. This is what Holds has 589 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 8: said during his interview on Friday in South Bend Pat 590 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 8: McAfee show on the ESPN again, not game day, but 591 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 8: day before, and everybody beats him does so because they're 592 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 8: more physical than the Ohio State and I think Notre 593 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 8: Day will take that same approach. Yeah, well then Bryan 594 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 8: today or physical. Well, let's remember the truth of this game. 595 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 8: As exciting as the last play was, each team was 596 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 8: stopped on fourth and one twice in the game, four 597 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 8: times total unsuccessful on fourth and one. So if Ohio 598 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 8: State doesn't get the one yard TD with one second 599 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 8: left to win, the game. I think we have a 600 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 8: narrative that would be continuing. Just for the record. The Irish, 601 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 8: also for the record, missed a forty seven yard field 602 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 8: goal in the first half and lost at home seventeen 603 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 8: to fourteen. You mentioned Oregon that final was forty two 604 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 8: to six over Colorado. Today Oregon had its largest ever 605 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 8: halftime lead over a ranked opponent, thirty five nothing, and 606 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 8: it was up to forty two zip early in the 607 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 8: second half. Quarterback bo nicks four total touchdowns, all in 608 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 8: the first half. Colorado finished with eight punts twelve penalties. 609 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 8: Number four Florida State won in overtime at Clemson thirty 610 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 8: one twenty four. Clemson missed a twenty nine yard field 611 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 8: goal attempt with under two minutes left in regulation. Victories 612 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 8: in the top ten for Georgia and Michigan for Texas 613 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 8: and Penn State. On Fox TV, the late game has 614 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 8: Number five USC leading at Arizona State to seven early 615 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 8: in the second quarter, and right now at number eight Washington, 616 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 8: it's the Huskies thirty one twelve over cows In can 617 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 8: that happen? 618 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: I swore it was fourteen to seven. I looked down 619 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: and then I looked back up. Like five minutes later 620 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: and it was thirty one to six. It's like, what 621 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: just happened? 622 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, they got two touchdowns the center, two scores back 623 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 8: to back late first quarter, and then scored early in 624 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 8: the second quarter. So it went from fourteen to six 625 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,479 Speaker 8: to thirty one six pretty quickly. 626 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 2: It's gonna be so on brand for Oregon, Washington and 627 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 2: USC to be like three of the five best teams 628 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 2: in the country and all beating each other and missed 629 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: the playoffs and then leaves. 630 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 631 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh and then well that's it implied.

They 662 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 8: were trailing at Cincinnati nine to nothing after the third inning, 663 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 8: nine to one. In the sixth Pirates win the game 664 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 8: thirteen to twelve. We've got just over a week left 665 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 8: in the regular season. That is crushing for the Reds. 666 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 8: Texas shut out Seattle to nothing. The Rangers are first 667 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 8: in the AL West. Wins for the Cubs in Miami, 668 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 8: the Brewers magic number to clinch. The NL Central still 669 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 8: won over the Cubs, and we had rainouts at Yankee 670 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 8: Stadium and in DC. We're gonna have rain for NFL 671 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 8: games in the DC area. That means Baltimore as well, 672 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 8: and probably with the Jets too. 673 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 2: Back to you, Thank you very much, Steve Sega.

First of all, Uh, Lorena, go ahead. Play 711 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 2: that Dan Lanning sound from before the game rooted. 712 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,879 Speaker 6: In substance, cot flash rooted in substance. Today we talk 713 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:56,760 Speaker 6: with our past. 714 00:34:58,719 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 1: Right every moment. 715 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 7: The Cinderella story's over, man, Right, they're fighting for clicks, 716 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 7: we're fighting for wins. There's a difference, right, there's a difference. 717 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 7: This game ain't gonna. 718 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: Be playing in Hollywood. It's gonna be played on the grass. Pran, 719 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: It's gonna be playing on the grass. Let's go. 720 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,760 Speaker 2: That was Oregon coach Dan Lenning before the game. Unfortunately 721 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 2: we don't have the sound before halftime. But before halftime 722 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 2: he went even harder. 723 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: Uh. 724 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 2: He said Oregon was up thirty five nothing. He said, 725 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 2: we're not satisfied. We're not done yet. I hope those 726 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,320 Speaker 2: people have been watching every week are watching this week. Uh, Jason, 727 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 2: let me just ask you what I found the whole 728 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 2: thing curious, Like I thought the pregame thing was to 729 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 2: hype up his team the halftime stuff very clearly, it 730 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 2: seems to me, and by the way, I have no 731 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 2: fundamental problem with it, but it seems to me that 732 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 2: all of the noise that Colorado has been getting, it 733 00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 2: feels like Dan Lenning and Oregon took that personally this 734 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,919 Speaker 2: week is do do you think that's fair to say? 735 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: Is that fair to say? 736 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,240 Speaker 1: Yeah? That's That's kind of been the general consensus about 737 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: it is. They're the number ten team there, Oregon. They've 738 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: got a Heisman Trophy candidate at quarterback also, and they 739 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: weren't being talked about because everyone was talking about Colorado. 740 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 1: And I kind of rolled my eyes at it, like, 741 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: I get it. If you want to motivate your team 742 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: with that, that's fine. But honestly, man, like the Colorado 743 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: story is what everyone should be talking about because of 744 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: everything that has gone into it and because yeah, I mean, 745 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: it has brought a lot of attention to a place 746 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 1: that hasn't had attention in a long time. You can, again, 747 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: you can use that to motivate your team all you want, 748 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: but you're gonna take it personally, like I'll take it personally. 749 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: If we get to the end of the season, no 750 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 1: one's talking about Oregon and you somehow you beat Utah 751 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: for a change, or don't get knocked out in a 752 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: game you have no business losing, because Oregon loves doing 753 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: that late in the year. They love finding a way 754 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: to lose in those circumstances. I think this would have 755 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: been a far You can tell me I'm wrong on this. 756 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: I think it would have been far more effective to 757 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 1: keep your mouth shut, be respectful, and beat the brakes 758 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: off them. Even if you believed every word of what 759 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: Dan Lanning said. If you just keep that to yourself 760 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 1: and then go out there and rock them, then you've 761 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: made your statement and you don't have to do this. 762 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: If you're trying to motivate your team behind closed doors, 763 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: that's one thing. But the problem I have with this 764 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: is he knew there was a camera there. There's a 765 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: camera there. It's not like they had it placed and 766 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: didn't tell them about it. Oh, by the way, coach, 767 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 1: what you said in pregame, We're gonna run that for 768 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,760 Speaker 1: the next ten years. I can guarantee you that those 769 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: comments are going to be played at Colorado next year, 770 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 1: and a year after and the year after that and 771 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,720 Speaker 1: the year after that. This creates something for the future. 772 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: It's great for entertainment, it's great for the sports watching public. 773 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: But if it's me, he knew his team was gonna 774 00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:00,399 Speaker 1: boat race them, So why even bother when you've got 775 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 1: cameras around, say it publicly. Just be super respectful to Colorado. 776 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: You know they've earned all of this. It's gonna be 777 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: a tough challenge for us. And then beat the dog 778 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: crap out of them, and then let everybody else say, boy, 779 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: Oregon's better than we thought, because then they are talking 780 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: about Oregon, but they're not talking about it because you've 781 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,280 Speaker 1: taken something personal and there's like a spilled milk mentality. 782 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 1: Does that make any sense? 783 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I mean I think a couple of things 784 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 2: is one. He was very respectful during the week. He 785 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 2: said all the right things. You know, he had said 786 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 2: something when Colorado left for the Big Twelve. Remember they 787 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 2: were the first ones to leave, and then before we 788 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,959 Speaker 2: realized the conference was gonna break up, Dan Lanning said 789 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 2: something about, you know, who cares about Colorado? They haven't 790 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 2: won anything since they've been in this league to begin with. 791 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 2: People try to make it a big thing. It wasn't 792 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 2: a shot at Dien whatever. Yeah, I think that, you know, 793 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 2: he was respectful during the week, he did let the 794 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 2: football do his talking. And then I'll say a couple 795 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: other things. One, it does feel like he was offended, 796 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 2: like upset that he wasn't getting enough credit. But to 797 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 2: your point, hey, Colorado gave you this huge spotlight, but 798 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 2: you just showed America how good you are. You just 799 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 2: showed America that Bo nix Iss maybe a Heisman Trophy candidate. 800 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 2: The other thing that I'll say, and I tweeted this 801 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 2: earlier today, and I believe it. I do think part 802 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 2: of it, especially the halftime stuff when it was clear 803 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 2: they were gonna win. I do think part of it 804 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 2: was recruiting too. I think it was I know, I'm 805 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 2: gonna have to recruit against this guy over the next 806 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 2: however many years he's at Colorado is how however many 807 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 2: years he's in college football, And I will forever because 808 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 2: these two teams are going their separate ways after this year, 809 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 2: I will forever be able to say I'm the dude 810 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 2: that beat that guy by forty And maybe it's just 811 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 2: for the next year or two, but he can go 812 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 2: into kids' houses and if a kids considering Colorado, he 813 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 2: could say why would you go to Colorado. You want 814 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 2: to play for championships and have swag and have multiple 815 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 2: uniforms and do this and do that. Come to Oregon. 816 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 2: So I think it's all part of it. But I 817 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 2: do think the one thing that I will say, it 818 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,720 Speaker 2: was very clear by watching it that he took offence 819 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,360 Speaker 2: to something at some point point this week, whether it 820 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:02,919 Speaker 2: was just attention or something else. 821 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that's a good point. I'd forgotten 822 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 1: about the fact that they're not going to be regular 823 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 1: opponents going forward. I think that I just kind of 824 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: look at it. He took something personally that's very very clear, 825 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: But he also knew that his team was better, and 826 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: so he wasn't saying something he was probably gonna regret 827 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:25,879 Speaker 1: later most likely. That's that's intriguing, I would say. So, yeah, 828 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: that's that's a good argument about the future in terms 829 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: of having that over him and understanding that. I also 830 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a tough sell just to say 831 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 1: don't go to Colorado, go to Oregon because of that, 832 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 1: because you know what clicks lead to and trends. 833 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true, by the way, keeping everybody updated on 834 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 2: two late scores, Washington up thirty one to twelve against 835 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 2: cal us He up twenty one to ten, both those 836 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 2: in the second quarter.

Washington 845 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 2: all over cal thirty eight to twelve. 846 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: Was finally turned it off and went back to USC 847 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: Arizona State because it's just a Panix and that they're 848 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: just ridiculous. But they just every time you look up 849 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: they've scored again. 850 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 2: What are we even doing here with WATA don't. I mean, 851 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 2: they're unbelievable. They had seven hundred and nineteen yards of 852 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 2: total offense last week against Michigan State. I was on peacock, 853 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 2: so I did not see any of it, but this 854 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 2: is unbelievable. Thirty eight to twelve. It's not even halftime, 855 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 2: USC twenty one to ten with about four minutes to 856 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 2: go in the first half in Tempe, Arizona against Arizona State. 857 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 2: We'll keep updated on that. Jason, Do you want to 858 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 2: switch gears though? And I want to get to some 859 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 2: of week What is it week three of the NFL? 860 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 2: Man times going. 861 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: Luckily it's only three, but it also feels like, man, 862 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: we're already we're already the third week of the season. 863 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 2: I know, no, I know, it's it's going by fast, 864 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 2: and you know, I want to start with what we 865 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 2: saw on Saturday Thursday, not Tripnome, my Wards, not Saturday Night. 866 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 2: I do want to talk about Thursday night and the 867 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine ers. They obviously played the New 868 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 2: York Giants Thursday Night game, and it was one that 869 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 2: was largely one sided. San Francisco wins thirty to twelve. 870 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,760 Speaker 2: They hold the New York Football Giants to one hundred 871 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 2: and fifty yards of total offense in that game. I 872 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 2: want to talk about both angles, but I want to 873 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 2: start with the San Francisco angle. I mean, it's obvious, right, 874 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 2: I mean, they're fantastic, They're phenomenal, obviously made an NFC 875 00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: Championship game last year before Brockbirdy gets hurts. And I 876 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,320 Speaker 2: know that it's easy for us to say this because 877 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 2: they have played a third game. Not everybody else has. 878 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,800 Speaker 2: Everybody else will be in action either Sunday or Monday. 879 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 2: But in a year where you know, Casey's looked good 880 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 2: but not great through two games, Phillies looked good but 881 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 2: not great through two games. Dallas is good, but we'll 882 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 2: talk about the Gravon Diggs injury here. Momentarily, Cincinnati is 883 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 2: zero and two. Is San Francisco the best team in 884 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 2: the league at least right now? 885 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 1: Yes they are. I mean they've got the defense is absurd. 886 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 1: We already knew that coming in. The play calling is 887 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: absurd because Kyle Shannan's a genius. Christian McCaffrey's arguably the 888 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:40,720 Speaker 1: most dangerous running back in the league because of everything 889 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: that he does for you. And we know what they 890 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 1: have a receiver. Let's not forget they didn't have Brandon 891 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: Ayuk in this game. They didn't have him at all, 892 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: and they were still doing all of this and then 893 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 1: you got Brock party And I know that's the real 894 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: topic here. And that's what everybody has wanted to opine 895 00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:00,120 Speaker 1: on since Thursday night. I don't understand the reticence to 896 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: give him flowers for what he's accomplished. I'm not sure 897 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 1: why everybody is so hesitant about this. Do I think 898 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 1: that he goes to any system and he's successful like this? No, 899 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 1: but he is. He is perfectly placed in this system 900 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 1: to do what Kyle Shanahan needs him to do. He's 901 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: not gonna be a guy it's gonna throw for five 902 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: hundred yards a game. But I also think that he's 903 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 1: generally not gonna lose you very many games, and his 904 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 1: floor doesn't seem to be all that low to me. Like, 905 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: I just don't know why we have to go and 906 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: immediately try to poke holes in brock Purty to explain 907 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: why San Francisco can't win a super Bowl with him, 908 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: because I think they can. 909 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, I do too, And I when I was 910 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 2: a little hesitant on them coming into the year, it 911 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 2: wasn't so much like him as a dude. It was 912 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 2: coming off major elbow surgery. And I'm not a doctor, 913 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 2: but I have been told some guys recover pretty, you know, 914 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 2: relatively easy from it. I've and told there are certain 915 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 2: quarterbacks that were never really the same after that kind 916 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 2: of injury. So that was my only hesitation. But I'm 917 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 2: with you, is is it was a fun story last year. 918 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 2: You know, obviously we know we know the narrative they 919 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 2: had Jimmy G. They start, you know, they started with 920 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,959 Speaker 2: Trey Lance, they go to Jimmy G. Jimmy G gets hurt, 921 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 2: they're they're kind of stuck with Brock Purty obviously was 922 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 2: undefeated going into that NFC Championship game. I just think, 923 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 2: now he's just a B plus very good NFL quarterback 924 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 2: like he is. He doesn't have the physical tools of 925 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence or whatever, Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jackson. But 926 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 2: as you said, like he's just a good NFL quarterback. 927 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 2: And I you know, I'm with you from the perspective that, 928 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 2: like I think sometimes you know, we try to take 929 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 2: a narrative and we try to turn it into something 930 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 2: that it isn't. By the way, Dion Sanders, they were 931 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:52,240 Speaker 2: never gonna win a national championship that this year. It's okay, 932 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 2: if they go six and six, that's a success. And 933 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 2: I kind of think that's what it is with brock 934 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,439 Speaker 2: Purty is we're still trying to like judge him as 935 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 2: mister irrelevant, the last pick of the draft, this and that, 936 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,359 Speaker 2: and I just look at it and say, listen, Tom 937 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 2: Brady was a sixth round pick. Russell Wilson who you know, whatever, 938 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 2: he is what he is at this point in his career, 939 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 2: but he's a super Bowl winning quarterback that was drafted 940 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 2: not in the first round. Dak Prescott has become a 941 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 2: very good NFL quarterback that was not taken in the 942 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,800 Speaker 2: first round. Like, we have a history in the NFL 943 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 2: of guys that were not top five picks, that were 944 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 2: not top ten picks. I mean Patrick Mahomes, how many 945 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 2: guys were drafted ahead of him, and his draft at 946 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 2: the quarterback position it was two or three or whatever. 947 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 2: It's like, we can just admit that brock perty is 948 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 2: just a really good NFL quarterback. And admittedly he is 949 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 2: in a great system with a great coach. His skill 950 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 2: set is very much you know, the skill set that 951 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,360 Speaker 2: thrives in that system under Kyle Shanahan. He has plenty 952 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 2: of talent around him. But I think we could just 953 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 2: like we could stop with the mister irrelevant, We can 954 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 2: stop with this, we can stop with that. He's just 955 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 2: a very good NFL quarterback. 956 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 1: Jason, Yeah, and I think that's fair. Look, my former 957 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 1: broadcast partner back on the show that I used to 958 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: host in Nashville on a daily basis, Roonan Foster, who 959 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 1: played for the Steelers forever. He went undrafted at the 960 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 1: University of Tennessee, and I remember him talking about this 961 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: on a fairly regular basis. I've never forgotten him because 962 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: he's a really thoughtful, insightful guy who understands the league 963 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: and understands the mentality that goes into a lot of 964 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,360 Speaker 1: the decisions that are made and just some of the 965 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: thought processes. And he said him in his own brain, 966 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,800 Speaker 1: year after year, felt like he had to keep earning 967 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 1: his job every year because he was undrafted, not because 968 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: he hadn't earned the right, because he clearly proved he 969 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: should have been in the NFL, considering he played his 970 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,640 Speaker 1: entire career for one of the best organizations in the 971 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 1: league and was a stalwart and a leader on that team. 972 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: But he continually had to look over his shoulders because 973 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 1: of his draft position and because he went undrafted when 974 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 1: and I think he thought he was going to be drafted. 975 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: But it's the same kind of deal. I think that's 976 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 1: part of the brock per experience for a lot of 977 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:05,839 Speaker 1: people watching him. Because he was drafted where he was, 978 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 1: because he was mister irrelevant, He's gonna have to earn 979 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,120 Speaker 1: it over and over again with a certain crop of people. 980 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,720 Speaker 1: And what's funny about this is this is the same 981 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: crop of people that can't wait to tell you where 982 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 1: Tom Brady was drafted. Sure like, if Tom Brady could 983 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,440 Speaker 1: be drafted where he was and end up doing what 984 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: he's done, you're telling me brock Purdy can't have a 985 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:33,839 Speaker 1: successful career in the National Football League. I just think 986 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 1: at some point, let's look at what he's done. I mean, 987 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: think about what Jimmy Garoppolo had really accomplished before San 988 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 1: Francisco paid him out the nose coming out of New England, 989 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: Like he hadn't done almost anything, and then he got 990 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 1: hurt almost immediately, so it didn't take much of a 991 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,640 Speaker 1: sample size to get him paid. And good for him. 992 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: But I do think that I don't think we need 993 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: to find reasons to tear Brock Purdy down when he 994 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 1: hasn't given us a reason. No one's out here suggesting 995 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: he's about to be the MVP of the league. But 996 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:07,280 Speaker 1: he's already impressed me this season more than I thought 997 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: maybe he would. And you're right, And the reasoning for 998 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,879 Speaker 1: me again was coming off that injury, you know, how 999 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 1: long was it going to take him to round into form? 1000 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 1: And didn't seem like it took him very long because 1001 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,440 Speaker 1: he seems to be very much in control of that offense. 1002 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 2: By the way, if you're playing a every time Washington 1003 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 2: Husky score a touchdown drinking game at home, please seek 1004 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 2: immediate medical attention. Washington has scored again. It is now 1005 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 2: forty five to twelve with forty four seconds left in 1006 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 2: the second quarter, USC up twenty one to thirteen. I 1007 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,720 Speaker 2: didn't mean to cut you off there, Jason, but Washington 1008 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: scored again forty five points of the first half. But 1009 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 2: we'll get back to the NFL, And you know, I 1010 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 2: agree with you, And I also think the other thing too, 1011 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 2: is like, you know, one really good quarterback and I 1012 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,840 Speaker 2: think two. We have to look at the competition in 1013 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,239 Speaker 2: the NFC as well. Is that you know, you start 1014 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 2: talking about best quarterbacks in the NFC, he's I think 1015 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 2: he's right in that Dak Jared Goff. I mean he's 1016 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:07,280 Speaker 2: not as I guess you would say accomplished as those guys. 1017 00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 2: But that's kind of what the NFC quarterback situation is 1018 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 2: right now is guys that have really good pieces around 1019 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 2: them don't beat you, don't beat themselves. You know, Dak 1020 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 2: maybe a little bit more than you know than what 1021 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 2: I just mentioned with who did I say here? I 1022 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 2: said Brock Purdy, Dak and I can't remember, oh, Jared Golf. Yeah, So, 1023 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,240 Speaker 2: like like none of them are super high ceiling guys, 1024 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:35,760 Speaker 2: but they get the job done generally, don't beat themselves whatever. 1025 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,399 Speaker 2: So I'm with you it is I think they are 1026 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 2: a great team. I think he's a great story, but 1027 00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 2: I think we have to kind of cut out the 1028 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 2: you know, the the mister relevant all that as if 1029 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 2: it's like, you know, like like still the biggest thing 1030 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 2: like that, that's not the thing. He's pasted it. He's 1031 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,279 Speaker 2: beyond it. He is who he is really quickly. With 1032 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 2: the New York Football Giants, they're so what. 1033 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: I tell you, what I tell you for the season, 1034 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 1: same thing you were saying, right, Yeah, this is exactly 1035 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:08,359 Speaker 1: what I thought they were gonna be. They're not very good, 1036 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: So I mean, not with I mean unfortunate with Barkley. Yes, 1037 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 1: but this is exactly what I was anticipating from Danny Dimes. 1038 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:17,800 Speaker 1: This is exactly what I was anticipating from this team. 1039 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 1: It's what you thought as well. Last year was the peak. 1040 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: It was not them continuing to clown the mountain. They 1041 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: overperformed last year and now they're regressing to the mean. 1042 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 2: Let me ask you a question, and I think I 1043 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:34,359 Speaker 2: know the answer. Do you think that we ever get 1044 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 2: to a point so like Daniel Jones got the relatively 1045 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 2: big contract, you know, four year contract, one hundred and 1046 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 2: sixty four year extension, hundred and sixty million. It's I 1047 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 2: get It's not Patrick Mahomes money, it's not Joe Burrow 1048 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 2: Money's not Justin Herbert money. Do you think we ever 1049 00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:51,880 Speaker 2: get to a point where with the way rookie contracts work, 1050 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 2: the fact that for the most part, we usually get 1051 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 2: a pretty good quarterback crop where there are deemed to 1052 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:02,600 Speaker 2: be three or four first roundish type talents every year. 1053 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 2: Sometimes it's a little bit more. I know, two years 1054 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,600 Speaker 2: ago Kenny Piickett was the only first rounder, but this 1055 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,760 Speaker 2: year we could have five, six seven first rounders. Whatever 1056 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 2: do you think we ever just get to the point 1057 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 2: where a team just basically says like, yeah, you're good, 1058 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 2: and you're not like you're not mediocre, you're not Zach Wilson, 1059 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 2: you're not whomever. But we're just not gonna pay you 1060 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 2: and start over. Like, I know it was hard for 1061 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,279 Speaker 2: the Giants because they made the playoffs last year, but 1062 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 2: I think we all kind of knew that what Daniel 1063 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 2: jones ceiling was, he probably hit it last year. As 1064 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:34,479 Speaker 2: you said that, you're never that they're never gonna be 1065 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 2: better than last year. I mean, they might be as good, 1066 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:39,439 Speaker 2: they might catch some breaks. Maybe the NFC's a little 1067 00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 2: bit down. But I was just thinking about that, is 1068 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:43,799 Speaker 2: like I know, there was no way to really know 1069 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:48,840 Speaker 2: how good this this upcoming quarterback draft would be, but 1070 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,799 Speaker 2: like say this was this this quarterback draft was last year. 1071 00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 2: Like I don't know, I just I find it so 1072 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,920 Speaker 2: interesting because now you owe him one hundred and sixty million, 1073 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 2: four years whatever and you're kind of stuck with him 1074 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:00,840 Speaker 2: for a little while, and I just I don't know, 1075 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:02,359 Speaker 2: I was just thinking about it, is like we all 1076 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 2: knew what his ceiling was, we all knew what his 1077 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 2: limitations were. He got paid because again, ultimately, like they 1078 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 2: did make the playoffs. But I just I don't know. 1079 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 2: I was just thinking about that this week, as like, 1080 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 2: at some point somebody's gonna say, we don't care if 1081 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 2: you can get us to the fringes of the playoffs. 1082 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 2: We're just gonna try over with somebody else. 1083 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, it's a really it's an interesting 1084 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 1: kind of discussion to have because somebody in the league 1085 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 1: is always going to be the worst at quarterbacks. Somebody 1086 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,280 Speaker 1: is always going to be fifteenth in the league. Somebody's 1087 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 1: always going to be in twentieth in the league. I 1088 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 1: don't mean the same team over and over again. I 1089 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 1: mean they're not everybody can be the best at that position. 1090 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: There are only a certain number of the league quarterbacks. 1091 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 1: The teams that have them generally are near the top 1092 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,919 Speaker 1: of the standings. But how are we viewing running backs 1093 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,400 Speaker 1: right now? A lot of the backs that aren't getting 1094 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 1: paid aren't bad, They're just replaceable in the eyes of 1095 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 1: the franchises. And I think that's what you look at. 1096 00:53:56,400 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 1: It's like, eventually, do you just kind of take the 1097 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:04,839 Speaker 1: risk and say, hey, man, you're actually pretty good, but 1098 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: we can't continue to just be mediocre, Like, mediocrity is 1099 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 1: not why we're in business here. If I don't think 1100 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 1: that my quarterback can win me a Super Bowl, if 1101 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 1: I legitimly have seen enough for that conclusion to be 1102 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 1: paramount in my mind, that I'm not gonna pay him. 1103 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: It's just that simple. I understand that sometimes you have 1104 00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:24,879 Speaker 1: to have bridge years and all this, but you don't 1105 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:26,880 Speaker 1: have to have one hundred and sixty million dollar contract 1106 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:31,440 Speaker 1: bridge years you can afford. I mean, you tell me 1107 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 1: everybody listening, you tell me Daniel Jones replaceable. I mean, 1108 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: he's a good he's a pretty decent football player, But 1109 00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:44,560 Speaker 1: is he in any way irreplaceable or is he closer 1110 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:47,680 Speaker 1: to a Dalvin Cook or a Zeke or somebody like that, 1111 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 1: even maybe because of his age, like a Clyde Edwards 1112 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: Layer or somebody like that, where it's just you kind 1113 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 1: of know what it is and it's okay, but it's 1114 00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: never gonna get you to the top of the mountain team. Personally, 1115 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,839 Speaker 1: I would rather bottom out than win eight games a year, 1116 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 1: because they'll win eight games a year forever. If they 1117 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 1: bought him out, they have a chance to get a 1118 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 1: game changer at the one position where it ultimately matters, 1119 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 1: And that's what. 1120 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, Like if they had, Like again, 1121 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 2: I know it's hard because you made the playoffs, and 1122 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,400 Speaker 2: like I don't think because they made the playoffs you 1123 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 2: could do it, But like, would the New York Giants 1124 00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:27,120 Speaker 2: be in better position going forward today if they had 1125 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 2: just basically said after last year, Daniel Jones, you're not 1126 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:35,040 Speaker 2: the guy and they had just signed Tyrod Taylor or 1127 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 2: Andy Dalton or whoever this year and been in position 1128 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:40,480 Speaker 2: to get a top ten pick next year, whether it's 1129 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:42,359 Speaker 2: maybe you don't get number one, maybe you don't get 1130 00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:44,320 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams, but you get a Quinn Ewers and Michael 1131 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,080 Speaker 2: Pennix Shador Sanders obviously nobody knew how good he was 1132 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:51,280 Speaker 2: at the time. Like, would your organization be better today 1133 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:55,240 Speaker 2: if you had just said, Daniel Jones, thanks for the memories, 1134 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 2: thanks for the playoff. You know, run, but we're not 1135 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,879 Speaker 2: paying you because I I think you probably would be. Now, 1136 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 2: there's no guarantee you hit on the quarterback pick, but 1137 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 2: there is also the possibility that the guy that you 1138 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 2: end up taking has the higher upside than whoever you 1139 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 2: end up than keeping Daniel Jones. Does that make sense. 1140 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't. I would even say this. So you're 1141 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 1: saying you're not guaranteed to hit on that pick, right, 1142 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,759 Speaker 1: It's about a twenty five percent success rate for quarterbacks. 1143 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:23,400 Speaker 1: But you can make the argument you didn't hit with 1144 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones exactly. That's the thing, Like, if you didn't 1145 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:30,799 Speaker 1: hit with Daniel Jones, and by hit, I mean really hit. 1146 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 1: You guys know what I mean when I say hit. 1147 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 1: Everybody listening understands what a hit and a miss is. 1148 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 1: I can't say they hit with Daniel Jones. At best, 1149 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: they bunted and barely made it on base. Like, is 1150 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 1: that the kind of thing that you're going to hit 1151 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 1: your wagon to for five years for fear of maybe 1152 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,880 Speaker 1: striking out? No, I don't think so. I think the 1153 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,359 Speaker 1: organizations that win, especially the ones that can actually turn 1154 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 1: it around, are ones that are willing to take risks 1155 00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:59,320 Speaker 1: because they've got nothing to lose. 1156 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,839 Speaker 2: And I and listen, I know that there was no 1157 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 2: way a year ago you could know how good this 1158 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 2: quarterback class would be. We knew Caleb Williams Drake May 1159 00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:10,840 Speaker 2: at the top. We didn't think shad Or Sanders was 1160 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,240 Speaker 2: a potential first round pick. Quinn yours has obviously played 1161 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 2: very well this year. So I'm not sitting here saying 1162 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 2: that like you had to know and shame on you. 1163 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 2: But I do think if you had just said, Daniel Jones, 1164 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 2: thanks again, we're gonna roll with Tyrod Taylor for the year, 1165 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 2: We're gonna roll with Andy Dolton for the year, whatever 1166 00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 2: and try to position ourselves or maybe you know they. 1167 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 2: I guess you wouldn't have been in position to take 1168 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 2: a quarterback last year, but I don't know. I just 1169 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 2: I just think I find it so interesting, is that, 1170 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:41,720 Speaker 2: like there's just this this need to always kind of 1171 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 2: pay the quarterback, and I think it comes back to 1172 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,800 Speaker 2: by you.

Do want to switch gears Jason from 1179 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 2: one quarterback to another? Gotta discuss Joe Burrow, what's going 1180 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 2: on with him? What's going on with the Bengals. That's next. 1181 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Welcome back everybody, Fox Sports Radio, Aaron 1182 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 2: Towards Jason Martin broadcasting live from the Tairaq dot Com studios. 1183 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 2: Just a minute ago, we were talking about if the 1184 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine ers are the best team in 1185 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 2: the NFL, want to switch gears to a team that 1186 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 2: I think we maybe would have made the argument four 1187 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 2: a month ago, but they unfortunately have started oh and two. 1188 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 2: That is the Cincinnati Bengals, who have not only started 1189 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 2: oh and two, but it is kind of worth noting. Uh, 1190 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 2: the Cincinni Bengals are zero and two in the division, 1191 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 2: which is brutal. Obviously, last year they started oh and 1192 00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 2: two as well. This is a little bit different though. 1193 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 2: They are now two full games behind Baltimore oh and 1194 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 2: two overall, with back to back losses to Cincinnati and 1195 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 2: to Baltimore to in the season. And more importantly, Joe 1196 00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 2: Burrow is questionable going into a Monday night game against 1197 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Rams. Zach Taylor basically said, it's a 1198 00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:14,000 Speaker 2: game time decision, all that good stuff. Jason, what do 1199 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 2: you make of the health of Joe Burrow and the 1200 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 2: health of the Cincinnati Bengals season, as it's already on 1201 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 2: the brink just two games. 1202 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,480 Speaker 1: It's not good. Neither one of them is good. I 1203 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 1: think that we just kind of weren't up to speed 1204 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 1: on the injury before the season. It just kind of 1205 00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: wasn't talked about all that much. We thought maybe it 1206 00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 1: was just rust in Game one. But if you actually 1207 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 1: watch the tape, and you know, I've looked at several 1208 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 1: people and listened to several people that have gone back 1209 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 1: and watch film in the first couple of weeks, and 1210 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 1: he just can't escape, He can't move, he can't shift 1211 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:51,440 Speaker 1: in the pocket properly. He hadn't been right since the 1212 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 1: beginning of the year, and then he you know, aggravated 1213 00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:57,959 Speaker 1: it last week and now he's questionable, perhaps can't play 1214 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:02,640 Speaker 1: on Monday night. It's not good. And I think the 1215 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 1: thing that kind of stands out I saw, or at 1216 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 1: least I think I heard a podcast. I think it 1217 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:10,560 Speaker 1: was on the Athletic that was suggesting this. But they're 1218 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: not particularly special as a football team outside of about 1219 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:18,160 Speaker 1: three guys. Sure he's won Jamar's one and you might 1220 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 1: put Higgins in that list, and that's sort of it. 1221 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 1: They have a good football team, but without him or 1222 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:32,080 Speaker 1: Jamar in particular, there's nothing all that remarkable about them. 1223 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 1: If he's not right, and he hasn't been to this 1224 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,640 Speaker 1: point in the season, you see what you see what 1225 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,520 Speaker 1: that looks like. They're in real trouble. I mean the 1226 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:42,960 Speaker 1: fact that they've lost both those games in division and 1227 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,360 Speaker 1: I think, more than anything, the fact that Baltimore looks 1228 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: the way Baltimore does, Baltimore winning these games, Lamar looking 1229 01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 1: the way he is throwing the football. Greg Roman being 1230 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 1: out of there has made a massive difference for them. 1231 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 1: They look very, very good. The Browns look mediocre. Pittsburgh 1232 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 1: looks like they were over hyped before the season, and 1233 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 1: the Bengals are playing their way out of this thing 1234 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 1: right now. And now you're looking at h and two 1235 01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 1: playing against a decent team on Monday night, maybe not 1236 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 1: having Burroughs services, but even with that, like the AFC 1237 01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,000 Speaker 1: is going to be a dog fight, and if you 1238 01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 1: fall too far behind too fast, the chances of you 1239 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,400 Speaker 1: being able to come back and make some kind of 1240 01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 1: an impact or even make the playoffs, they don't have 1241 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 1: much more room to fall before that becomes a very 1242 01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 1: daunting ask. 1243 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an interesting point. I hadn't really thought about it, 1244 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 2: but I'm trying to think, like, like, what is special 1245 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 2: about them besides Burrow and Chase Haggins is obviously you 1246 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 2: know in the upperrasch Lin all that, But you know, 1247 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:49,920 Speaker 2: I don't and maybe I'm missing somebody. Maybe there's somebody 1248 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 2: on defense that's absolutely unbelievable that I'm not thinking of. 1249 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 2: I mean, they got dude, Sam Hubbert's good, you know, 1250 01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 2: Dax Hill's been good through the last couple of years. 1251 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 2: But I don't think there's anything special about them. Joe 1252 01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:04,600 Speaker 2: Mixon obviously is good, but he's an older player. 1253 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Jesse Bates was good. I mean, it's 1254 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,240 Speaker 1: not like they had nobody. I'm not suggesting that. I'm 1255 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 1: just saying, like, you talk about difference making guys, and 1256 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 1: the list is fairly short with them, and I would 1257 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 1: say it's actually fairly short with almost every team in 1258 01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 1: the league. There are a few guys that make them 1259 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:25,880 Speaker 1: a completely different football team. A lot of times the 1260 01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,040 Speaker 1: quarterback has to be involved in that list if you're 1261 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:32,959 Speaker 1: going to be a contender, and certainly if Burrow's not there, 1262 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:35,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they've got much of a chance to 1263 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 1: do anything. 1264 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 2: Well, it'll be interesting. They don't play until Monday night, 1265 01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 2: so that gives them a little bit of wiggle room, 1266 01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 2: but you talk about essentially a must win game. They 1267 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 2: host the Los Angeles Rams Monday night. We get a 1268 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 2: double Monday night game again, so it'll be interesting to 1269 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 2: see the latest down Joe Burrow again, he is questionable 1270 01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 2: right now. Fox Sports Radio er towards Jason Martin broadcasting 1271 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 2: that I from thedirec dot com studios.

Iowa's offense, 1330 01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 8: let's just say it out loud, not known for their offense. 1331 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 8: It was even worse tonight. They had two first downs 1332 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 8: until the final drive of the game in the rain. 1333 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 8: At Penn State, they wound up with four first downs 1334 01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:26,440 Speaker 8: for the contest, a ranked team had four first downs 1335 01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:27,360 Speaker 8: in four quarters. 1336 01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 1: To Kirk Farence Man just got to extend the first 1337 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 1: time you can. 1338 01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:32,720 Speaker 2: First of all, Kirk ference is a Yukon guy.

I said 1341 01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 2: it was ten to nothing, and then I stopped paying attention. 1342 01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,920 Speaker 2: It was thirty one nothing. How what happened? And he goes. 1343 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 2: Penn State's entire strategy was we can't lose if we 1344 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 2: don't do something amazingly stupid. That's literally the exact que. 1345 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 2: So well, so, I mean I was a little enthralled 1346 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:57,360 Speaker 2: with Ohio State. Notre Dame, forgive me, but I guess 1347 01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 2: their entire philosophy was, Hey, if we don't throw pick 1348 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,960 Speaker 2: sixes and whatever, we're gonna win comfort. It worked. 1349 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 8: It worked, dru Aler with four touchdown passes. It was 1350 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 8: time of possession that you really only see in like 1351 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 8: an army game. Penn State had the ball for forty 1352 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 8: five and a half minutes out of sixty.

Did it twice against two different opponents, I 1381 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:42,839 Speaker 8: mean that season against Notre Dame and against Colorado.

We had the 1494 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:33,720 Speaker 8: game at Clemson today that went overtime. Clemson is now 1495 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:36,759 Speaker 8: zero to two in Conference fourth rank.

Crazy story. 1501 01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:52,360 Speaker 8: Previous three years, he'd had three extra points and that 1502 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:54,519 Speaker 8: was it. So he wasn't playing at all. So he 1503 01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 8: decided not to be on the team this year. They've 1504 01:14:57,320 --> 01:15:01,240 Speaker 8: had kicking problems. They contacted him this past week, can 1505 01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 8: you come back. 1506 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,480 Speaker 2: On the team. He was living four hours away from campus. 1507 01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:07,640 Speaker 8: But technically he was still a student because of the 1508 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,439 Speaker 8: online and so he you know, I was watching a 1509 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:13,400 Speaker 8: couple of his extra points today. They just barely tucked in, 1510 01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:15,920 Speaker 8: and you know, the college extra points are very close. 1511 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,400 Speaker 8: And then it comes time for a twenty nine yard 1512 01:15:19,439 --> 01:15:21,760 Speaker 8: field goal attempt and all the glory with under two 1513 01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 8: minutes left in regulation, and he missed the kick. It 1514 01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 8: goes to ot and Florida State wins at Clemson and 1515 01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:32,280 Speaker 8: key FSU scored a touchdown and a fumble return late 1516 01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 8: in the fourth third quarter.

He 1641 01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 2: was ultimately fired on the tarmac after losing to Arizona 1642 01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:40,599 Speaker 2: State in Tempe. So we'll keep you updated here. Twenty 1643 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 2: four to twenty one to nine minutes to go, Washington, 1644 01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:47,639 Speaker 2: all over Cal. By the way, we all know who 1645 01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 2: USC has next week, of course, the Colorado Buffaloes. That 1646 01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:52,920 Speaker 2: will be our big noon game here on Fox. I 1647 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:55,960 Speaker 2: think everybody thought Colorado probably could and would take a 1648 01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:59,120 Speaker 2: loss today. I don't think anybody thought that USC might 1649 01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:00,800 Speaker 2: be coming in on a lose streak, so we'll keep 1650 01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:02,960 Speaker 2: you updated on that one. And Jay, So we did 1651 01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:05,240 Speaker 2: talk Colorado earlier, but I do want to get back 1652 01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:07,920 Speaker 2: to what was ultimately, I believe, probably the story of 1653 01:23:07,960 --> 01:23:10,959 Speaker 2: the day. I mean, Colorado was a twenty one point underdog. 1654 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,400 Speaker 2: So I don't want to sit here and say that 1655 01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:15,960 Speaker 2: it was a shocker as they lost forty two to 1656 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:19,960 Speaker 2: six to Oregon. But you know, you talk about a game, 1657 01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:22,839 Speaker 2: a game of the night, a game of the season. 1658 01:23:22,960 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 2: So far, the Ohio State buck guys go to Notre 1659 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:31,439 Speaker 2: Dame and win. When I say in the final seconds 1660 01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:35,240 Speaker 2: that isn't a metaphorical figure of speech. They got the 1661 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:37,200 Speaker 2: ball back with about a minute twenty five left, go 1662 01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:41,799 Speaker 2: on a fifteen play drive sixty five yards. They convert 1663 01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:46,120 Speaker 2: a third and nineteen at the Notre Dame twenty two 1664 01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:51,040 Speaker 2: and they end up scoring with one second left on 1665 01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 2: a run play Jason, a thrilling finish. They end up 1666 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:57,040 Speaker 2: winning seventeen to fourteen. I'll tell you what, Loreno, why 1667 01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:59,080 Speaker 2: don't you play what Ryan Day had to say after 1668 01:23:59,120 --> 01:23:59,439 Speaker 2: the game. 1669 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:00,519 Speaker 1: Yes, that's it. 1670 01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:05,000 Speaker 4: Physicality across the board, finishing off, having guts. Now, like 1671 01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:06,639 Speaker 4: I like to know where Lou Holtz is right now, 1672 01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:09,519 Speaker 4: what he said about our team, what he said about 1673 01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:12,639 Speaker 4: our team. I cannot believe. This is a tough team 1674 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 4: right here. We're proud to be from Ohio. And it's 1675 01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:17,760 Speaker 4: always been Ohio against the world, and it'll continue to 1676 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:18,600 Speaker 4: be Ohio. 1677 01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 8: Against the world. 1678 01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:21,479 Speaker 4: But I'll tell you what, I love those kids who got. 1679 01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:24,559 Speaker 2: A tough team. That was right day after the Notre 1680 01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 2: Dame win. 1681 01:24:25,560 --> 01:24:26,120 Speaker 1: I'm ready to. 1682 01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:28,320 Speaker 2: Go play for Ohio State. You know, I've been anti 1683 01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,400 Speaker 2: Ryan Day for a while. My guy was firing up. 1684 01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:38,320 Speaker 2: Ohio State gets the unbelievable win, unbelievable game, awesome game. 1685 01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 2: Ohio State gets the victory. Jason. They improved to four 1686 01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:44,680 Speaker 2: and zero in what was obviously, by the sound of 1687 01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:46,760 Speaker 2: Ryan Day's voice, a very emotional game. 1688 01:24:47,479 --> 01:24:49,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great game. Like I said off the 1689 01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:52,880 Speaker 1: top of the show, you really got bookends of great 1690 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:56,160 Speaker 1: matchups because Florida State and Clemson. You want to talk 1691 01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:58,640 Speaker 1: about how great Ohio State Notre Dame turned out to be, 1692 01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:00,800 Speaker 1: we haven't even mentioned Florida State and Clemson. And it 1693 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:03,720 Speaker 1: was excellent, and it was early, and it went to overtime, 1694 01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:05,960 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of storylines coming out of that 1695 01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:08,760 Speaker 1: football game, and we haven't managed to get there at 1696 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:13,120 Speaker 1: all because Ohio State and Notre Dame tonight just played. 1697 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,400 Speaker 1: It was a war. It was yards were at a premium. 1698 01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:20,120 Speaker 1: Points were certainly at a premium. It took every second 1699 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:24,240 Speaker 1: of the clock to determine the winner. Both teams played 1700 01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:30,200 Speaker 1: extremely hard, extremely physically everything. I mean, they had to 1701 01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:33,000 Speaker 1: earn it all night long. And I do think that 1702 01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:37,000 Speaker 1: this is the kind of game, right They got emotional 1703 01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:38,960 Speaker 1: about this because this is the kind of game that 1704 01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:41,479 Speaker 1: I think he feels, like his critics think he doesn't 1705 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:46,160 Speaker 1: win games that are dogfights like this, games that when 1706 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:50,200 Speaker 1: the finesse doesn't get it done anymore and you actually 1707 01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:54,240 Speaker 1: have to go and really beat somebody and physically stand 1708 01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:56,840 Speaker 1: toe to toe with them and be the aggressor. I 1709 01:25:56,880 --> 01:25:58,960 Speaker 1: think a lot of what he was saying defending his 1710 01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:04,720 Speaker 1: kids was defending the reputation that maybe he has not 1711 01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:07,320 Speaker 1: cared for that has been sort of pushed out there 1712 01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:10,040 Speaker 1: over the last few years about him. Unfortunately for him. 1713 01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:12,479 Speaker 1: I think it was accurate at the time, one accurate 1714 01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 1: tonight for the most part, But you could even see 1715 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:18,920 Speaker 1: instances in the first half where he was still kind 1716 01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:20,640 Speaker 1: of showing that and in the third quarter when he 1717 01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:23,599 Speaker 1: refused to do the quarterback sneak, like there are some 1718 01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:26,640 Speaker 1: critiques to be had, but his football team's undefeated, and 1719 01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:28,439 Speaker 1: that was a great and great that was just a 1720 01:26:28,439 --> 01:26:31,519 Speaker 1: great sporting event. There was so much drama and that crowd, 1721 01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:33,120 Speaker 1: that atmosphere was phenomenal. 1722 01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:36,320 Speaker 2: Absolutely by the way. He had even more in the 1723 01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:39,200 Speaker 2: postgame press conference, he said, I don't know where he 1724 01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:41,600 Speaker 2: gets off saying those types of things. I don't I 1725 01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:44,360 Speaker 2: have some other things i'd like to say too, but 1726 01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:47,519 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say that because I'm more respectful than 1727 01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:51,080 Speaker 2: he is. I mean, I don't know. 1728 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:54,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you realize he's just smack talking, right Ryan, 1729 01:26:54,160 --> 01:26:56,280 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. He's a Notre Dame guy who 1730 01:26:56,360 --> 01:27:00,720 Speaker 1: was playing red meat to that audience. Like I think 1731 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:02,720 Speaker 1: there was an audience, right, Like, yes, it was the 1732 01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:04,800 Speaker 1: pending clip, it was past, yeah, so there was a 1733 01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:07,400 Speaker 1: live audience. So he's playing to that. He's playing a 1734 01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:11,559 Speaker 1: little villain role. I don't think that that version of 1735 01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:14,360 Speaker 1: it is what he's going to say if he's actually 1736 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 1: doing legit analysis. But nobody's doing legit analysis in that moment, 1737 01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:22,520 Speaker 1: so he's of course waving the pompoms and being overwrought, 1738 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:26,840 Speaker 1: and Ryan Day taking it personally is kind of who cares? Man, 1739 01:27:27,240 --> 01:27:30,479 Speaker 1: Just like, get over it. The fact that he's mentioned 1740 01:27:30,479 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 1: it in pregame, on the field, in postgame on the field, 1741 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:38,800 Speaker 1: and in the press conference after the game tells you. 1742 01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:40,760 Speaker 1: I bet you he cared about it way more than 1743 01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:41,679 Speaker 1: any of the players did. 1744 01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:45,880 Speaker 2: Thousand obviously. Yeah, here is what lou Holtz had to say. Said, 1745 01:27:46,160 --> 01:27:48,000 Speaker 2: we have the best offensive line in the country, obviously 1746 01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:50,200 Speaker 2: talking about Notre Dame Sam Hartman won't even get his 1747 01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:52,680 Speaker 2: jersey dirty all year. He has time to throw the 1748 01:27:52,680 --> 01:27:55,320 Speaker 2: football the offensive line. That's not what he said. I'm 1749 01:27:55,360 --> 01:27:58,040 Speaker 2: trying to find it. You look at coach Day. He 1750 01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:00,519 Speaker 2: has lost to Alabama, Georgia, Clemson in mission twice and 1751 01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:03,439 Speaker 2: everybody beats him because they're more physical than Ohio State. 1752 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:07,840 Speaker 2: So that was essentially what he said. Yeah, I listen, 1753 01:28:08,040 --> 01:28:10,559 Speaker 2: I think this kind of speaks Listen, I'm not trying 1754 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:12,439 Speaker 2: to tear down Ohio State after a great win here. 1755 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 2: I think that kind of speaks to like kind of 1756 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 2: what we've said about Ohio State, Like lou Holtz called 1757 01:28:19,280 --> 01:28:22,800 Speaker 2: him soft, Ryan Day talking about a coach. What a 1758 01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:25,639 Speaker 2: coach said that's been retired for twenty five years, who's 1759 01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,439 Speaker 2: eighty six years old? Like the fact that you heard 1760 01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:30,840 Speaker 2: that outside noise, the fact that you care what somebody 1761 01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:32,720 Speaker 2: that eighty six years old had to say. Now, by 1762 01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:37,280 Speaker 2: the way, maybe this is one of those like you know, Dion, 1763 01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:40,840 Speaker 2: like you know, finding something to be upset about, you know, 1764 01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:43,280 Speaker 2: Like like I thought some of the stuff, like a 1765 01:28:43,320 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 2: few weeks ago with Matt Ruhle, I thought it felt 1766 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:50,200 Speaker 2: like they were just trying to find motivation, which is fine, 1767 01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:52,439 Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with it. Like I, like you said, 1768 01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:54,800 Speaker 2: I don't think that Ohio State Like I wonder how 1769 01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:57,920 Speaker 2: many Ohio State players even know who Lou Holtz is, Like. 1770 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:00,400 Speaker 1: Right, I mean that I think there's that, But there's 1771 01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:03,599 Speaker 1: also this, Like, with all due respect to the show 1772 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:06,280 Speaker 1: that that lou hole said this on, I didn't even 1773 01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:09,040 Speaker 1: know about this until Ryan Day mentioned it and I 1774 01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:11,680 Speaker 1: went and looked it up. Like if he doesn't mention it, 1775 01:29:11,720 --> 01:29:14,400 Speaker 1: I don't know that anybody cares. And if Ryan Day's 1776 01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:17,080 Speaker 1: team comes out and wins, which they would have either way, right, 1777 01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:19,519 Speaker 1: I mean, like you can go behind closed doors and 1778 01:29:19,560 --> 01:29:21,680 Speaker 1: tell your kids whatever you want to tell them to 1779 01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 1: build them up and say, hey, this dude was a 1780 01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,040 Speaker 1: legend of Notre Dame a lot of you. You know, 1781 01:29:26,280 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 1: it happened before your time, but he was talking about 1782 01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 1: your toughness. But what you don't do, in my opinion, 1783 01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:37,720 Speaker 1: is then make that public three times before, after and 1784 01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:39,640 Speaker 1: in the press conference. Just talk about the fact that 1785 01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:41,920 Speaker 1: you won the game. Be the coach. I mean, is 1786 01:29:41,960 --> 01:29:44,840 Speaker 1: Lou Hole's going to be talking now? Probably not, because 1787 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:47,800 Speaker 1: you beat him. There's not really any reason to then 1788 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:50,759 Speaker 1: go forward on it because he shouldn't be your story. 1789 01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:53,479 Speaker 1: There shouldn't be a part of the storyline where you're at, 1790 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:57,439 Speaker 1: where you are speaking to someone who criticized. Just go 1791 01:29:57,520 --> 01:30:01,080 Speaker 1: win the game, which you did. Go take your undefeated 1792 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:04,439 Speaker 1: record and play next week. Like lou Holtz talked, and 1793 01:30:04,479 --> 01:30:07,600 Speaker 1: no one knew about it, No one cared largely, like 1794 01:30:07,680 --> 01:30:09,880 Speaker 1: I said, I didn't know about it. Maybe a lot 1795 01:30:09,880 --> 01:30:13,120 Speaker 1: of people did, but to me that that was an 1796 01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:17,600 Speaker 1: unnecessary reaction. Three times. I understand that he was emotional, 1797 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:20,120 Speaker 1: and I understand that he took it personally because it's 1798 01:30:20,160 --> 01:30:24,599 Speaker 1: going to his brand of I don't want to use 1799 01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 1: the word. I don't want to use that word, but 1800 01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:32,519 Speaker 1: just non aggressiveness that we have. I think we've come 1801 01:30:32,560 --> 01:30:35,800 Speaker 1: to co Ohio State display at times where they have 1802 01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:39,240 Speaker 1: not shown a killer instinct, and so he was using that. 1803 01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:41,320 Speaker 1: And again I do think he was he was playing 1804 01:30:41,320 --> 01:30:43,720 Speaker 1: to the audience and having some fun with it. But 1805 01:30:43,880 --> 01:30:46,320 Speaker 1: I will say when we when we actually listen to 1806 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:48,800 Speaker 1: what he said or you read the words and he 1807 01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:51,880 Speaker 1: mentions coach Day and how he loses because they're more aggressive. 1808 01:30:52,920 --> 01:30:56,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, methinks thou doth protests too much 1809 01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:58,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to Bryan Day because he knows that's 1810 01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:01,680 Speaker 1: the general knock on him at this stage in his 1811 01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:04,400 Speaker 1: career is that you can beat him if you can 1812 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,880 Speaker 1: out physical his football team, because that's what's been seen. 1813 01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:11,559 Speaker 1: Like he's saying, didn't he say earlier that he's like 1814 01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:13,799 Speaker 1: we played one bad half in a couple of years. 1815 01:31:13,920 --> 01:31:16,759 Speaker 1: It's like that's not true, Like that's just not accurate. 1816 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:19,800 Speaker 2: No, he said something like that as well. That wasn't 1817 01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 2: in the sound that we played, but he did say 1818 01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:25,240 Speaker 2: something about, you know, everyone's freaking out because we played 1819 01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 2: one bad half. No, you got smoked by Michigan at 1820 01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:30,000 Speaker 2: the very least in the second half last year got 1821 01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:31,759 Speaker 2: smoked by him in the second half the year before, 1822 01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:35,160 Speaker 2: you know, last year in the playoff they lose, Marvin 1823 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:37,479 Speaker 2: Harrison gets hurt, but like they weren't great in the 1824 01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:40,360 Speaker 2: second half either. What do you think about Ohio State 1825 01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:42,240 Speaker 2: in the big picture, because you know, I think with 1826 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:44,439 Speaker 2: Ohio State in the big picture, I think you could 1827 01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:46,240 Speaker 2: look at it from one of two ways. Is that 1828 01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:49,040 Speaker 2: one we talked about it earlier and by the way, 1829 01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:51,920 Speaker 2: if anybody missed it, make sure to go back and 1830 01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,640 Speaker 2: download the podcast. After the show, we talked about the 1831 01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:57,559 Speaker 2: fact that Ohio State, you know, this team just might 1832 01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:02,000 Speaker 2: be different. Is the defense was excellent all night. You know, 1833 01:32:02,040 --> 01:32:04,679 Speaker 2: Trayvon Henderson the running back, had over one hundred yards rushing. 1834 01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:07,960 Speaker 2: Two really good wide receivers. You know, Marvin Harrison wasn't 1835 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:11,320 Speaker 2: even the leading receiver this this evening. A mecha BUCA 1836 01:32:11,520 --> 01:32:14,439 Speaker 2: who actually you know, mel Kiper has projected as a 1837 01:32:14,479 --> 01:32:16,720 Speaker 2: first round pick as well. Shows you how deep that 1838 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 2: wide receiver room is. I just bring it up because 1839 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:22,479 Speaker 2: on the one hand, this just might be a different 1840 01:32:22,640 --> 01:32:26,520 Speaker 2: kind of Ohio State team. But two, I do wonder, 1841 01:32:26,680 --> 01:32:28,920 Speaker 2: you know, in the bigger picture, this might be the 1842 01:32:28,960 --> 01:32:31,960 Speaker 2: year I mean, you look across college football. You know, 1843 01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:34,800 Speaker 2: Florida State has two great wins. We haven't even talked 1844 01:32:34,800 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 2: about them, by the way, but Florida State has two 1845 01:32:37,120 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 2: great wins. Jordan Travis at quarterback, quinn Ewers has been 1846 01:32:39,960 --> 01:32:43,639 Speaker 2: awesome this year, Michael Pennix at Washington, bow Nix at Oregon. 1847 01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:45,960 Speaker 2: To beat some of these great teams, you might need 1848 01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:48,920 Speaker 2: great quarterback plays. So maybe it's way too early to 1849 01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:51,640 Speaker 2: look too too much into the future, but I think 1850 01:32:51,680 --> 01:32:53,640 Speaker 2: you could look at it as a positive from the 1851 01:32:53,640 --> 01:32:58,120 Speaker 2: Ohio State perspective of, Hey, maybe they don't have that elite, elite, 1852 01:32:58,240 --> 01:33:01,360 Speaker 2: upper level quarterback, but maybe everywhere else is so good 1853 01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:03,519 Speaker 2: that they don't need him. But then in the bigger picture, 1854 01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:05,840 Speaker 2: maybe some of it is you might need that guy 1855 01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:07,960 Speaker 2: in a year where quarterbacks have been the story. 1856 01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:09,280 Speaker 1: Of the sport so far. Yeah, I mean, I think 1857 01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:11,160 Speaker 1: that's true. I also think that we are coming to 1858 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:16,800 Speaker 1: a place where, at least this year, I'm not sure 1859 01:33:16,800 --> 01:33:19,800 Speaker 1: what to make of a lot of these teams yet. 1860 01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:22,559 Speaker 1: And like, I don't even know how good Georgia is 1861 01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:24,639 Speaker 1: quite yet because they hadn't played anybody. 1862 01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:27,559 Speaker 2: How about Michigan, They have Michigan is another example of it. 1863 01:33:27,560 --> 01:33:31,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I was gonna at some point prior to 1864 01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:32,719 Speaker 1: the show today, I was thinking, well, it just feels 1865 01:33:32,760 --> 01:33:35,040 Speaker 1: like Georgia and Michigan then there's everybody else. But that's 1866 01:33:35,080 --> 01:33:37,920 Speaker 1: not really it, Like I think there's just there's just 1867 01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:40,519 Speaker 1: a big conglomeration to teams. I've still got Georgia winning 1868 01:33:40,560 --> 01:33:42,320 Speaker 1: at all, and I've got them beating Michigan. I had 1869 01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:45,000 Speaker 1: that before the year, but I just kind of look 1870 01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 1: at it. It's just it feels a little bit more 1871 01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:50,960 Speaker 1: wide open to me because there are reasons to like 1872 01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:54,480 Speaker 1: and then not to like virtually everybody, Like, is Texas 1873 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:58,200 Speaker 1: third best in the country, I don't know, Florida State 1874 01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:01,880 Speaker 1: USC there's flaw was there? Florida State easily could have 1875 01:34:01,920 --> 01:34:04,800 Speaker 1: lost today. You know, Notre Dame was a top ten 1876 01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:07,599 Speaker 1: team coming in and they could have won. Ohio State's undefeated. 1877 01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:09,519 Speaker 1: Are they that much better than Notre Dame? Are they 1878 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:12,400 Speaker 1: better than Washington? Are they betteran I don't know, Like 1879 01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:16,840 Speaker 1: it just doesn't feel Usually by this point I have 1880 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 1: a pretty good sense of who I think is really 1881 01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:22,720 Speaker 1: really good, and it just and maybe this is just 1882 01:34:23,400 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 1: I haven't noticed as much in years past, but it 1883 01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:28,000 Speaker 1: just doesn't feel like we have much of a resume 1884 01:34:28,120 --> 01:34:31,120 Speaker 1: on a lot of these teams with which to bank 1885 01:34:31,400 --> 01:34:34,599 Speaker 1: how good they actually are. You talked about yours, for example, Well, 1886 01:34:34,600 --> 01:34:37,439 Speaker 1: the Alabama team they beat, we now know for sure, 1887 01:34:37,720 --> 01:34:40,360 Speaker 1: is just not really all that good. That doesn't mean 1888 01:34:40,439 --> 01:34:43,120 Speaker 1: that win doesn't matter. It does mean that we can't 1889 01:34:43,160 --> 01:34:46,320 Speaker 1: overvalue it and act like they beat a national champion 1890 01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:50,040 Speaker 1: level Alabama team because they didn't totally fair. 1891 01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:53,519 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I think the teams at the top, like 1892 01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:58,320 Speaker 2: I feel like, have looked I don't you know. I mean, listen, 1893 01:34:58,360 --> 01:35:00,280 Speaker 2: Georgia and Michigan have both been good so far, so 1894 01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 2: it's hard to say that they haven't looked dominant. But no, 1895 01:35:02,640 --> 01:35:06,120 Speaker 2: I'm with you, and I don't know if like, I 1896 01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:08,240 Speaker 2: don't know who I would vote number one today if 1897 01:35:08,280 --> 01:35:10,320 Speaker 2: I had an AP vote, which I don't. By the way, 1898 01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 2: USC has kicked a field goal. They're up twenty seven 1899 01:35:12,520 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 2: to twenty one. Now they are driving again as well, Like, 1900 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:16,519 Speaker 2: if I had an AP vote, I don't know who 1901 01:35:16,560 --> 01:35:18,479 Speaker 2: I would put number one, Like it feels like a 1902 01:35:18,479 --> 01:35:21,880 Speaker 2: prisoner of the moment thing. The night Texas beats Alabama, 1903 01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:23,760 Speaker 2: you probably have them number one. The week before you 1904 01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:26,559 Speaker 2: have Florida State. I think with the way that Oregon 1905 01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:29,439 Speaker 2: is dominated, and you can make the case for them, 1906 01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:31,400 Speaker 2: but I don't know that there's a great team, and 1907 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:35,439 Speaker 2: so it'll be interesting to see and it'll be fascinating 1908 01:35:35,479 --> 01:35:37,840 Speaker 2: because I don't think there's that dominant Alabama team. I 1909 01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 2: don't think Ohio State is definitively the best team in 1910 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:42,479 Speaker 2: the Big Ten, even though they took care of business today. 1911 01:35:42,840 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 2: Washington and Oregon both look good in the Pac twelve. 1912 01:35:45,360 --> 01:35:48,880 Speaker 2: So it is an interesting year and we will have 1913 01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:51,080 Speaker 2: to wait and see because there's still a lot of 1914 01:35:51,080 --> 01:35:54,559 Speaker 2: football left. But I agree there is you know, doesn't 1915 01:35:54,560 --> 01:35:56,880 Speaker 2: feel like there's one or two teams running away from 1916 01:35:56,880 --> 01:35:59,320 Speaker 2: the rest of this sport.

We talked earlier today about the San Francisco 1934 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:10,360 Speaker 2: win over the New York Football Giants. Jason, I wanted 1935 01:37:10,400 --> 01:37:13,200 Speaker 2: to go through some of these big Week three games 1936 01:37:13,600 --> 01:37:15,360 Speaker 2: a little bit of a lighter slate, but I think 1937 01:37:15,360 --> 01:37:19,760 Speaker 2: there's some interesting storylines this weekend, and I want to 1938 01:37:19,800 --> 01:37:24,720 Speaker 2: start a little place called Minneapolis, Minnesota. This game to 1939 01:37:24,760 --> 01:37:27,720 Speaker 2: me is interesting, right, So Los Angeles Chargers oh and 1940 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:31,880 Speaker 2: two travel to the Minnesota Vikings, who are also oh 1941 01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:37,559 Speaker 2: and two. Listen, I'll say this is that you know 1942 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,320 Speaker 2: the stats on starting oh and two, oh and three 1943 01:37:40,320 --> 01:37:42,439 Speaker 2: and making the playoffs like that. Stuff's obviously changed with 1944 01:37:42,479 --> 01:37:46,160 Speaker 2: the extra wildcard spot, But who, like, just point blank, 1945 01:37:46,600 --> 01:37:48,360 Speaker 2: I think I know the answer, But who do you 1946 01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:49,599 Speaker 2: think needs to win more? 1947 01:37:49,760 --> 01:37:57,040 Speaker 1: On Sunday between the Chargers and the Vikings, Man, I mean, yes, yeah, yeah, 1948 01:37:57,120 --> 01:37:59,320 Speaker 1: I mean it's really it's real. It's the Chargers for me. 1949 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:03,479 Speaker 1: But maybe that's because I was biased to that degree 1950 01:38:03,520 --> 01:38:07,200 Speaker 1: before the season, because I've been so adamant that the 1951 01:38:07,240 --> 01:38:10,640 Speaker 1: Staway decision was the wrong one and that this was 1952 01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:12,880 Speaker 1: going to prove out not to work, and so far 1953 01:38:12,920 --> 01:38:16,320 Speaker 1: it hasn't. I mean, a couple of bad choices against Tennessee. 1954 01:38:16,320 --> 01:38:18,240 Speaker 1: You find a way to lose that game after losing 1955 01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:22,200 Speaker 1: because you you know you're look, Brandon stee is a 1956 01:38:22,240 --> 01:38:24,920 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. That's how he gets the job. He's a 1957 01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:27,960 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator with the Rams. He ends up moving over 1958 01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:31,639 Speaker 1: and the defense has been not good under his tenure, 1959 01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,320 Speaker 1: virtually at all. They've paid money to J. C. Jackson. 1960 01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:35,800 Speaker 1: He comes in, they have to take him off the 1961 01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:39,320 Speaker 1: field on crucial downs. It just isn't working out very well. 1962 01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:43,680 Speaker 1: Minnesota gets rid of Dalvin Cook and then Madison has 1963 01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:45,800 Speaker 1: a bad game. They have some things there. Now they've 1964 01:38:45,800 --> 01:38:48,760 Speaker 1: brought in a new back, and you know, I don't 1965 01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:50,519 Speaker 1: know that he plays. I don't think he is going 1966 01:38:50,560 --> 01:38:52,240 Speaker 1: to play actually this week, but he will probably be 1967 01:38:52,280 --> 01:38:54,400 Speaker 1: in the lineup next week. I would say it is 1968 01:38:54,479 --> 01:38:58,000 Speaker 1: the Chargers, but I was down on Minnesota entering the 1969 01:38:58,080 --> 01:39:00,000 Speaker 1: year just because I didn't buy into what they did 1970 01:39:00,120 --> 01:39:03,400 Speaker 1: last year. The Chargers didn't do much last year, so 1971 01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:05,640 Speaker 1: I kind of think it's more of them because I 1972 01:39:05,680 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 1: think their coach can't survive much more of this. 1973 01:39:08,160 --> 01:39:10,280 Speaker 2: So I was gonna ask you. I heard John Middlekoff, 1974 01:39:10,439 --> 01:39:13,760 Speaker 2: you know, former NFL scout does great work in the media. 1975 01:39:13,840 --> 01:39:17,719 Speaker 2: Now he made the argument, if Brandon stalely loses this game. 1976 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:19,439 Speaker 2: I don't want to speak for John. I don't know 1977 01:39:19,479 --> 01:39:22,200 Speaker 2: if he said he could be fired or he should 1978 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:24,680 Speaker 2: be fired. Do you think there's any way with the 1979 01:39:24,720 --> 01:39:27,240 Speaker 2: way that we know that the Chargers operate. Now, now, 1980 01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:30,400 Speaker 2: let me play devil's advocate. I could play both sides here, right. So, 1981 01:39:30,439 --> 01:39:33,559 Speaker 2: on the one hand, the Chargers, notoriously, especially with coaches, 1982 01:39:34,320 --> 01:39:37,599 Speaker 2: kind of sort of cheap. Okay, obviously, you know took 1983 01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:40,599 Speaker 2: the cheap route with Brandon Staley last year. Sean Payton 1984 01:39:40,680 --> 01:39:43,000 Speaker 2: was available. There was rumors that he wanted that job, 1985 01:39:43,400 --> 01:39:45,120 Speaker 2: so I could see the scenario where they kind of 1986 01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:46,880 Speaker 2: just give him more time, even though I think we 1987 01:39:46,920 --> 01:39:49,400 Speaker 2: all kind of know he's not the guy the counter 1988 01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:54,240 Speaker 2: would be. Though Jason Kellen Moore, as of like eighteen 1989 01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:57,960 Speaker 2: months ago, was considered to be a hot head coaching candidate. Sure, 1990 01:39:58,080 --> 01:40:01,320 Speaker 2: he's now the offensive coordinator, and you could potentially give 1991 01:40:01,400 --> 01:40:04,599 Speaker 2: him a little bit of a job interview on the job, 1992 01:40:05,240 --> 01:40:08,040 Speaker 2: But I guess, I guess the core question I'm asking 1993 01:40:08,600 --> 01:40:10,559 Speaker 2: do you believe, in any way, shape or form, that 1994 01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:12,720 Speaker 2: the Chargers, if they were to lose this game, to 1995 01:40:12,760 --> 01:40:14,280 Speaker 2: fall to oh and three, would actually have the guts 1996 01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:16,200 Speaker 2: to pull the trigger on Brandon Staley come Monday. 1997 01:40:17,680 --> 01:40:20,559 Speaker 1: No, I don't. I don't think that you make that 1998 01:40:20,680 --> 01:40:22,960 Speaker 1: choice and then three weeks in you say we screwed 1999 01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:24,720 Speaker 1: that one up. I think you go a little bit 2000 01:40:24,760 --> 01:40:28,479 Speaker 1: longer than this. I don't know that you're salvaging the 2001 01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:31,720 Speaker 1: season if you go oh and three. I guess I 2002 01:40:31,720 --> 01:40:34,200 Speaker 1: mean you have seen a couple of other AFC teams 2003 01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:37,160 Speaker 1: that you expected more from quite frankly, not do anything 2004 01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:39,599 Speaker 1: much yet, So maybe you're not completely out of it. 2005 01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:41,920 Speaker 1: But I think at the very least you probably go 2006 01:40:42,320 --> 01:40:44,920 Speaker 1: round mid season and if it's a total disaster, you 2007 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:47,920 Speaker 1: let it go. But I would be shocked if they 2008 01:40:47,960 --> 01:40:49,400 Speaker 1: made the move this fast. 2009 01:40:49,600 --> 01:40:52,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of agree. By the way, now, let 2010 01:40:52,080 --> 01:40:53,599 Speaker 2: me play it the other side of it. If the 2011 01:40:53,720 --> 01:40:56,080 Speaker 2: Vikings were to lose this game, you fall to oh 2012 01:40:56,120 --> 01:40:59,880 Speaker 2: and three. Now, granted, the division still feels very much 2013 01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:02,439 Speaker 2: up for grabs. Both Detroit and Green Bay already have 2014 01:41:02,479 --> 01:41:06,000 Speaker 2: one loss. I saw our colleague on Sundays, Kyle Rudolph, 2015 01:41:06,040 --> 01:41:09,080 Speaker 2: former Minnesota Viking, say that he thinks they should consider 2016 01:41:09,160 --> 01:41:12,960 Speaker 2: trading Kirk Cousins. I think the thought would be maybe 2017 01:41:13,000 --> 01:41:15,360 Speaker 2: the Jets. The Jets obviously, I don't think anybody thinks 2018 01:41:15,439 --> 01:41:17,839 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson is going to be starting the next fifteen 2019 01:41:17,880 --> 01:41:21,879 Speaker 2: weeks for them. Do you think, and we talked about earlier, 2020 01:41:22,000 --> 01:41:24,759 Speaker 2: all the great quarterbacks that could potentially be in this draft, 2021 01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:27,400 Speaker 2: do you think the Vikings, if they fall to zero 2022 01:41:27,400 --> 01:41:29,680 Speaker 2: and three, should consider kind of blowing this thing up 2023 01:41:29,760 --> 01:41:31,240 Speaker 2: and starting to prepare for next year. 2024 01:41:33,560 --> 01:41:35,439 Speaker 1: I mean, do I think Kirk Cousins is the biggest 2025 01:41:35,439 --> 01:41:36,240 Speaker 1: issue with that team? 2026 01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:36,400 Speaker 3: No? 2027 01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:38,839 Speaker 1: But do I think he is right in that mixture 2028 01:41:38,880 --> 01:41:41,479 Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks that you don't want because he just 2029 01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:45,520 Speaker 1: teases you enough to keep you away from the replacement 2030 01:41:45,560 --> 01:41:48,479 Speaker 1: that you might actually need to take that next step. Yes, 2031 01:41:49,280 --> 01:41:52,000 Speaker 1: and Rudolph is it's interesting that it's Rudolph saying it 2032 01:41:52,479 --> 01:41:55,479 Speaker 1: because Rudolph has firsthand knowledge of it, and for him 2033 01:41:55,520 --> 01:41:58,360 Speaker 1: to say it, he's almost he's almost basically saying, Yeah, 2034 01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:00,320 Speaker 1: you know, we've been here and done this for a 2035 01:42:00,360 --> 01:42:03,640 Speaker 1: long time. Can we finally cut the court on this 2036 01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:06,920 Speaker 1: and try a different way? And there will be suitors 2037 01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:08,880 Speaker 1: out there that would want Kirk Cousins because he's better 2038 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:10,600 Speaker 1: than what they have. And even though that's not the 2039 01:42:10,600 --> 01:42:12,280 Speaker 1: way I'd want to run a franchise, that's the way 2040 01:42:12,320 --> 01:42:14,280 Speaker 1: a lot of franchises are run. Yeah, let me, I 2041 01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:16,479 Speaker 1: think that would happen. It happened after week three. No, 2042 01:42:16,880 --> 01:42:20,000 Speaker 1: but I could see that and Staway both being things 2043 01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:21,479 Speaker 1: we're talking about a month from now. 2044 01:42:22,160 --> 01:42:24,519 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I agree, And that's why I think it's 2045 01:42:24,520 --> 01:42:26,679 Speaker 2: an interesting game. Because you fall to zero to three, 2046 01:42:26,760 --> 01:42:29,600 Speaker 2: you do have to have those tough you do have 2047 01:42:29,680 --> 01:42:33,240 Speaker 2: to have those tough questions. As far as as far 2048 01:42:33,280 --> 01:42:35,360 Speaker 2: as the quarterback positions concerned, I'm trying to find Kyle 2049 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:38,439 Speaker 2: Rudolph's quotes. He said, Kirk Cousins brought was brought to 2050 01:42:38,439 --> 01:42:40,120 Speaker 2: Minnesota to get them over the hump to win a 2051 01:42:40,200 --> 01:42:43,280 Speaker 2: super Bowl coming off the NFC Championship game loss. That 2052 01:42:43,439 --> 01:42:45,400 Speaker 2: is true. The quarterback was supposed to be the missing 2053 01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:47,639 Speaker 2: piece that put the super talented roster over the top 2054 01:42:47,720 --> 01:42:49,840 Speaker 2: to win a championship. We're at the spot from an 2055 01:42:49,920 --> 01:42:53,320 Speaker 2: organizational standpoint, where where are you going? Why haven't you 2056 01:42:53,360 --> 01:42:57,240 Speaker 2: extended him? Kyle Rudolph said that last week with our 2057 01:42:57,280 --> 01:42:59,920 Speaker 2: buddy Mark Willards. So, like you said, I don't think 2058 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:04,040 Speaker 2: either of those moves gets made necessarily after this week, 2059 01:43:04,120 --> 01:43:07,480 Speaker 2: but I think both of them have to be considered 2060 01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:10,320 Speaker 2: if you go zero to three and certainly going forward. 2061 01:43:10,360 --> 01:43:12,679 Speaker 2: Tell you what, Jason, there's a lot of other games 2062 01:43:12,720 --> 01:43:15,400 Speaker 2: that I do want to get to. We'll come back. 2063 01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:19,000 Speaker 2: We'll preview all the other big storylines this weekend. But 2064 01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:21,840 Speaker 2: before we do, though, final time, let's toss it over 2065 01:43:21,920 --> 01:43:26,200 Speaker 2: the news desk. We can't always say there's stuff trending 2066 01:43:26,280 --> 01:43:29,760 Speaker 2: at one thirty one Eastern time, but there absolutely is 2067 01:43:29,840 --> 01:43:32,000 Speaker 2: right about to Saga and Tempe. 2068 01:43:31,439 --> 01:43:35,080 Speaker 8: Early fourth quarter on Fox TV, Number five ranked USC 2069 01:43:35,200 --> 01:43:38,840 Speaker 8: is only leading twenty seven twenty one at Arizona State, 2070 01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:42,360 Speaker 8: Heisman winning quarterback Kayleb Williams has one touchdown pass and 2071 01:43:42,400 --> 01:43:45,640 Speaker 8: two TV runs. Meanwhile, about ten minutes left in the 2072 01:43:45,640 --> 01:43:48,640 Speaker 8: game at a thranked Washington Huskies now fifty two to 2073 01:43:48,680 --> 01:43:53,040 Speaker 8: twenty five over Cal Washington quarterback Michael Pennix in three 2074 01:43:53,120 --> 01:43:57,120 Speaker 8: quarters at over three hundred yards, passing four touchdowns, one interception, 2075 01:43:57,640 --> 01:44:00,920 Speaker 8: minute to goo until Fresno State becomes four on the season. 2076 01:44:01,080 --> 01:44:04,559 Speaker 8: At Fresno home team leads Kent State fifty three to ten. 2077 01:44:04,960 --> 01:44:07,880 Speaker 8: The late games at halftime at Hawaii, New Mexico State 2078 01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:11,360 Speaker 8: leading the visitors up seventeen to three. We had Ohio 2079 01:44:11,400 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 8: State winning at Notre Dame seventeen fourteen. Of course that 2080 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:17,519 Speaker 8: was on NBC, the Notre Dame Broadcasting Company, but they've 2081 01:44:17,520 --> 01:44:20,439 Speaker 8: expanded to Big ten now and the athletic pointing out 2082 01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:23,600 Speaker 8: for three hundred and fifty million dollars a year. So 2083 01:44:23,760 --> 01:44:29,880 Speaker 8: far this season, NBC has gotten Charlotte Versus, Maryland got Syracuse, 2084 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:34,320 Speaker 8: Purdue got Maryland, Michigan State, which was thirty one to 2085 01:44:34,400 --> 01:44:37,160 Speaker 8: nine for the Terps. Next week they've got Michigan State, 2086 01:44:37,280 --> 01:44:39,400 Speaker 8: Iowa farmers. 2087 01:44:39,640 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 1: Wow, a missioner stuff. 2088 01:44:42,120 --> 01:44:44,400 Speaker 2: Kevin Warren. I could not believe, Like I couldn't believe, 2089 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:47,280 Speaker 2: but I was like, they got the third game for 2090 01:44:47,360 --> 01:44:50,400 Speaker 2: the Big ten. By the way, poor PAC twelve, they 2091 01:44:50,439 --> 01:44:51,840 Speaker 2: could have saved some of that money just given it 2092 01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:53,280 Speaker 2: to the PAC twelve. They actually have a good product. 2093 01:44:53,320 --> 01:44:54,599 Speaker 2: But I guess they got the tea if they wanted. 2094 01:44:55,040 --> 01:44:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2095 01:44:55,240 --> 01:44:57,320 Speaker 8: Well, it also takes two sides to get an agreement, 2096 01:44:57,360 --> 01:44:58,880 Speaker 8: and we all know where the PAC twelve was on 2097 01:44:58,920 --> 01:45:02,200 Speaker 8: that in the last couple of year. In the I'll 2098 01:45:02,240 --> 01:45:05,080 Speaker 8: say it again, PAC two Championship game, Washington State beat 2099 01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:09,000 Speaker 8: Oregon State thirty eight to thirty five. Utah beat UCLA 2100 01:45:09,080 --> 01:45:11,400 Speaker 8: fourteen to seven. You'd scored on a pick six on 2101 01:45:11,479 --> 01:45:14,840 Speaker 8: the first play from scrimmage. Today, Tenth ranked Oregon was 2102 01:45:14,920 --> 01:45:18,000 Speaker 8: up on Colorado forty two to nothing early second half 2103 01:45:18,120 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 8: forty two to six. The final Tonight, Number twelve LSU 2104 01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:23,880 Speaker 8: beat Arkansas thirty four to thirty one on a short 2105 01:45:23,880 --> 01:45:26,760 Speaker 8: field goal in the final seconds Shadon Taniels with four 2106 01:45:26,840 --> 01:45:30,640 Speaker 8: touchdown passes. LSU had trailed thirteen three just before halftime. 2107 01:45:30,920 --> 01:45:33,800 Speaker 8: Thirteenth ranked Alabama at home was trailing Old Miss at 2108 01:45:33,840 --> 01:45:36,879 Speaker 8: the half seven to six. Bama won the game twenty 2109 01:45:36,920 --> 01:45:40,479 Speaker 8: four to ten victories on the road for Oklahoma, North 2110 01:45:40,479 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 8: Carolina for Duke, and Miami. Home wins for Tennessee and Florida, 2111 01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:49,200 Speaker 8: Indiana in four overtimes beat Akron. Northwestern came back for 2112 01:45:49,240 --> 01:45:53,040 Speaker 8: an overtime victory against Minnesota. Arizona won twenty one twenty 2113 01:45:53,120 --> 01:45:56,839 Speaker 8: at Stanford. West Virginia down Texas Tech twenty to thirteen. 2114 01:45:56,960 --> 01:46:00,559 Speaker 8: Texas Tech quarterback Tyler Shuck suffered a broken leg. Now 2115 01:46:00,680 --> 01:46:03,760 Speaker 8: of the top ten victories for Georgia and Michigan for 2116 01:46:03,960 --> 01:46:07,439 Speaker 8: Texas and Penn State, and number four Florida State won 2117 01:46:07,479 --> 01:46:10,960 Speaker 8: its game at Clemson in overtime thirty one to twenty four. 2118 01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:13,920 Speaker 8: Fasu scored a key touchdown late third quarter on a 2119 01:46:13,960 --> 01:46:17,400 Speaker 8: fumble return, and Clemson, with under two minutes left in 2120 01:46:17,439 --> 01:46:20,360 Speaker 8: the fourth quarter, missed a twenty nine yard field goal 2121 01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:23,680 Speaker 8: attempt and eventually the l for the home team in overtime. 2122 01:46:24,120 --> 01:46:26,920 Speaker 8: Number six Ohio State a winner at number nine Notre 2123 01:46:27,000 --> 01:46:29,720 Speaker 8: Dames seventeen to fourteen on a one yard td with 2124 01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:32,400 Speaker 8: one second left. The Buckeyes had blown a ten to 2125 01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:35,040 Speaker 8: nothing lead, but still came out with a w as 2126 01:46:35,080 --> 01:46:37,679 Speaker 8: Notre Dames defense had only ten players on the field 2127 01:46:37,720 --> 01:46:41,120 Speaker 8: for the last two plays. And before we leave college football, 2128 01:46:42,080 --> 01:46:44,639 Speaker 8: there was with the Colorado game, of course, a lot 2129 01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:47,000 Speaker 8: of lopsided stats to throw. You had a good one 2130 01:46:47,040 --> 01:46:50,200 Speaker 8: that Oregon had more touchdowns than Colorado had first downs 2131 01:46:50,280 --> 01:46:54,200 Speaker 8: in the first half. Actually, it was thirty five points 2132 01:46:54,240 --> 01:46:58,240 Speaker 8: allowed and Colorado only had twenty one yards in the 2133 01:46:58,280 --> 01:47:02,240 Speaker 8: first half. Said I wonder in recent years of college 2134 01:47:02,240 --> 01:47:06,200 Speaker 8: football has that happened to any other ranked team? The 2135 01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:10,400 Speaker 8: answer is always reliable. The Iowahwke Eyes ten years ago 2136 01:47:11,960 --> 01:47:14,599 Speaker 8: had a first half where they allowed twenty points and 2137 01:47:14,640 --> 01:47:19,960 Speaker 8: they had only seventeen yards ouch. Dolphins wide receiver Jalen 2138 01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:22,599 Speaker 8: Waddle is out tomorrow with a concussion. The Saints place 2139 01:47:22,680 --> 01:47:26,400 Speaker 8: running back Jamal Williams on ir Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow 2140 01:47:26,400 --> 01:47:29,200 Speaker 8: with the sore calf, questionable for Monday night. Eagles wide 2141 01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:32,400 Speaker 8: receiver DeVante Smith practice fully so he should play Monday, 2142 01:47:32,400 --> 01:47:35,200 Speaker 8: and Tampa Bay linebacker Devin White is also due to play. 2143 01:47:35,560 --> 01:47:38,439 Speaker 8: In baseball, the Dodgers and Clayton Kershaw beat the Giants 2144 01:47:38,439 --> 01:47:41,800 Speaker 8: seven nothing. The Dodgers offentially officially clinch a first round 2145 01:47:41,880 --> 01:47:44,519 Speaker 8: by the Padres had one eighth straight, but they lost 2146 01:47:44,560 --> 01:47:47,000 Speaker 8: at home in eleven innings tonight, five two to Saint 2147 01:47:47,000 --> 01:47:49,920 Speaker 8: Louis in the al Wes. The Texas Rangers are now 2148 01:47:50,040 --> 01:47:52,880 Speaker 8: game and a half over Houston and two up on Seattle. 2149 01:47:53,120 --> 01:47:56,439 Speaker 8: Texas shut out Seattle to nothing. Well, Houston lost at 2150 01:47:56,479 --> 01:47:59,800 Speaker 8: home to the on rushing Kansas City Royals three to two. 2151 01:48:00,520 --> 01:48:02,839 Speaker 8: You know, earlier this week the Royals had a record 2152 01:48:02,920 --> 01:48:07,040 Speaker 8: of forty eight and one oh two, and now they've 2153 01:48:07,040 --> 01:48:08,840 Speaker 8: won five games in a row. The guy that was 2154 01:48:08,880 --> 01:48:11,160 Speaker 8: the winning pitcher for him tonight, Jordan Lyles, had been 2155 01:48:11,200 --> 01:48:15,120 Speaker 8: four and seventeen this year and won at Houston. And 2156 01:48:15,160 --> 01:48:18,080 Speaker 8: then we had the comeback in the history of the 2157 01:48:18,120 --> 01:48:20,880 Speaker 8: Pittsburgh Pirates, which goes back to the eighteen hundreds. They 2158 01:48:20,880 --> 01:48:23,439 Speaker 8: were down nine to nothing after three innings and still 2159 01:48:23,439 --> 01:48:27,160 Speaker 8: won at Cincinnati thirteen to twelve. A crusher for the Reds, 2160 01:48:27,160 --> 01:48:29,360 Speaker 8: which just over a week left in the regular season. 2161 01:48:29,600 --> 01:48:32,080 Speaker 8: Here the Cubs in Miami each one. Cubs lead for 2162 01:48:32,120 --> 01:48:34,479 Speaker 8: the final wildcard spot in the NL by one game 2163 01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:37,400 Speaker 8: over Miami, now two and a half up on the Reds. 2164 01:48:37,680 --> 01:48:41,200 Speaker 8: Victories for Baltimore and Tampa Bay updating USC leads at 2165 01:48:41,200 --> 01:48:44,880 Speaker 8: Arizona State twenty seven twenty one, eleven and a half 2166 01:48:44,920 --> 01:48:47,880 Speaker 8: minutes to go, and it's looking like they stripped the 2167 01:48:47,920 --> 01:48:52,439 Speaker 8: quarterback on a sack fumble. Trojans recover. Just while we've 2168 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:55,960 Speaker 8: been speaking, the Huskies have scored again, Washington fifty nine 2169 01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:58,639 Speaker 8: to twenty five over col mid fourth quarter. 2170 01:48:59,360 --> 01:49:02,599 Speaker 2: Back to you, thank you very much, to Sega, to Sega, 2171 01:49:02,720 --> 01:49:04,760 Speaker 2: have a great evening.

He's he's doing the show 2175 01:49:13,640 --> 01:49:16,160 Speaker 8: from Minnesota. I think, so you got Mark Willard is 2176 01:49:16,600 --> 01:49:19,040 Speaker 8: really excited for the season and the new show, the 2177 01:49:19,080 --> 01:49:21,719 Speaker 8: new co host on Sunday nights. There's this half second 2178 01:49:21,840 --> 01:49:26,759 Speaker 8: delay before he responds to sentences, so Mark's all excited. 2179 01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:28,519 Speaker 2: Great way, it was a great day in the NFL. 2180 01:49:28,640 --> 01:49:30,960 Speaker 8: Kyle, how you doing complete dead air? 2181 01:49:31,640 --> 01:49:31,840 Speaker 1: Oh? 2182 01:49:31,920 --> 01:49:33,400 Speaker 2: Doing fine? Bys A. 2183 01:49:34,000 --> 01:49:38,320 Speaker 8: Hopefully that gets settled, because I mean, we have guys 2184 01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:40,479 Speaker 8: sometimes do shows from out of state and they don't 2185 01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:42,479 Speaker 8: have that kind of delay. It was almost like he 2186 01:49:42,560 --> 01:49:44,680 Speaker 8: had to think, was it a good day? Am I 2187 01:49:44,720 --> 01:49:48,320 Speaker 8: feeling okay? It wasn't, but hopefully that gets rectified. That's 2188 01:49:48,360 --> 01:49:51,519 Speaker 8: only been on two Sundays here as the season has started. 2189 01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:53,840 Speaker 8: So tomorrow eight pm Eastern. 2190 01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:56,200 Speaker 2: Time was already making national headlines because I did see 2191 01:49:56,320 --> 01:49:58,320 Speaker 2: did some It was just prepping for the show, and 2192 01:49:58,360 --> 01:50:01,400 Speaker 2: I saw his comment on Kirk Cousins, and you know, 2193 01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:04,479 Speaker 2: obviously there's no one better to speak on Kirk Cousins 2194 01:50:04,520 --> 01:50:06,840 Speaker 2: and the Vikings than Kyle Rudolph. You can hear Kyle 2195 01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:11,240 Speaker 2: Rudolph with Mark Willard what five pm Pacific eight Eastern 2196 01:50:11,320 --> 01:50:14,040 Speaker 2: tomorrow to Saga will be back with them and then 2197 01:50:14,120 --> 01:50:17,800 Speaker 2: Chris plankhosts and you know whatever somebody I ca yeah, 2198 01:50:17,800 --> 01:50:20,840 Speaker 2: I can't remember. Oh it's Ernie Spanner, Okay, Ernie Spanners 2199 01:50:20,880 --> 01:50:23,400 Speaker 2: Arizona Wildcats held on for dear life against an awful 2200 01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:26,160 Speaker 2: Stanford team today. By the way, Arnie Spanners Arizona Wildcats 2201 01:50:26,160 --> 01:50:28,960 Speaker 2: play Washington next week, so oh hello, that'll be on 2202 01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:31,479 Speaker 2: during our show. But I'm good, all right to Saga. 2203 01:50:31,479 --> 01:50:34,759 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, my friend. Have a great evening, Jason. 2204 01:50:34,840 --> 01:50:36,800 Speaker 2: Let's just really quickly get to a couple more of 2205 01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:39,679 Speaker 2: these games, and by the way, we have time after 2206 01:50:39,680 --> 01:50:43,320 Speaker 2: the break to do it. As well. Let's go to 2207 01:50:43,680 --> 01:50:47,320 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, Jason, give me your Denver Bronco spiel. 2208 01:50:47,880 --> 01:50:50,720 Speaker 2: They're going to Miami. Miami's obviously looked awesome coming off 2209 01:50:50,720 --> 01:50:53,639 Speaker 2: the Sunday Night football win. They're two and zero your 2210 01:50:53,680 --> 01:50:57,880 Speaker 2: Denver Broncos owing to the miracle Hail Mary, only to 2211 01:50:57,960 --> 01:51:00,760 Speaker 2: not fai not convert the two point convert? Where are 2212 01:51:00,760 --> 01:51:02,240 Speaker 2: you at on your Broncos? Go ahead? I know you 2213 01:51:02,320 --> 01:51:03,240 Speaker 2: want to talk about them. 2214 01:51:03,360 --> 01:51:05,000 Speaker 1: They're better than they were last year, and they're still 2215 01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:09,360 Speaker 1: not very good, and Russell Wilson shows flashes, but nothing 2216 01:51:09,520 --> 01:51:12,720 Speaker 1: that would indicate that the guy that you were used 2217 01:51:12,760 --> 01:51:14,960 Speaker 1: to seeing is the guy that's still there. I think 2218 01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:17,519 Speaker 1: Sean Payton knows that as well as anybody else does. 2219 01:51:17,960 --> 01:51:21,880 Speaker 1: Feels like a one and done scenario where you know, 2220 01:51:21,920 --> 01:51:24,840 Speaker 1: I don't think he takes a job if he isn't 2221 01:51:24,880 --> 01:51:26,680 Speaker 1: told that they can move on from Russ at the 2222 01:51:26,720 --> 01:51:28,960 Speaker 1: end of the season if it doesn't work. They've dealt 2223 01:51:28,960 --> 01:51:31,559 Speaker 1: with some injury, so that's a problem that no Waddle 2224 01:51:31,640 --> 01:51:36,080 Speaker 1: for Miami is an issue certainly for them, But I 2225 01:51:36,200 --> 01:51:39,000 Speaker 1: just I feel like at this stage Denver is not 2226 01:51:39,120 --> 01:51:40,880 Speaker 1: the kind of football team I would pick to go 2227 01:51:40,920 --> 01:51:43,280 Speaker 1: on the road to beat the Miami Dolphins team. So 2228 01:51:43,600 --> 01:51:46,320 Speaker 1: that's that's kind of where we stand right now. Oh 2229 01:51:46,439 --> 01:51:49,439 Speaker 1: and two, that's probably likely. Oh and three, they certainly 2230 01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:52,080 Speaker 1: look better coached and more discipline than they were last year. 2231 01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:55,400 Speaker 1: But you know that's not a high bar to clear, 2232 01:51:55,479 --> 01:51:57,599 Speaker 1: so there's still work to be done for Sean Payton. 2233 01:51:57,880 --> 01:52:00,439 Speaker 2: Quick update from the college game. USC has scored a 2234 01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:03,439 Speaker 2: touchdown and converted a two point conversion, so they are 2235 01:52:03,479 --> 01:52:05,840 Speaker 2: now up thirty five to twenty one. Jason one more 2236 01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:11,120 Speaker 2: kind of interdivisional AFC West game. Sunday night game. The 2237 01:52:11,280 --> 01:52:17,880 Speaker 2: Raiders host the Steelers, and I just don't think the 2238 01:52:17,880 --> 01:52:20,160 Speaker 2: Steelers are very good. I mean, I've done Mike Kenny 2239 01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:24,320 Speaker 2: Pickett Spiel. I think he's largely overrated because he's a Steeler, 2240 01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:27,160 Speaker 2: because he was the only quarterback taken in the first round, 2241 01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:28,760 Speaker 2: so we had a lot of eyeballs on him last year. 2242 01:52:29,080 --> 01:52:31,000 Speaker 2: And I think the other thing is he plays a 2243 01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:33,880 Speaker 2: lot in the preseason, and so he's the one starter 2244 01:52:33,960 --> 01:52:37,000 Speaker 2: that plays a lot. We analyze them, we overanalyze them. 2245 01:52:37,280 --> 01:52:39,479 Speaker 2: I know the Steelers were able to hold on to 2246 01:52:39,600 --> 01:52:42,479 Speaker 2: beat the Cleveland Browns last week, but you know you 2247 01:52:42,520 --> 01:52:44,240 Speaker 2: look at it, two hundred and fifty five yards of 2248 01:52:44,280 --> 01:52:49,120 Speaker 2: total offense. The run game is nonexistent. I don't think 2249 01:52:49,160 --> 01:52:51,519 Speaker 2: this team is very good. I don't think the Raiders 2250 01:52:51,560 --> 01:52:54,280 Speaker 2: are very good. But they're at home. They obviously took 2251 01:52:54,280 --> 01:52:57,120 Speaker 2: care of as we just mentioned the York Denver Broncos 2252 01:52:57,120 --> 01:52:59,960 Speaker 2: a few days ago. This will be the Raiders home opener. 2253 01:53:00,840 --> 01:53:02,720 Speaker 2: I think the Raiders get the win here, Jason, I 2254 01:53:02,720 --> 01:53:03,160 Speaker 2: really do. 2255 01:53:03,520 --> 01:53:07,519 Speaker 1: They might. I mean, it's not likely to be a shootout. 2256 01:53:07,600 --> 01:53:10,559 Speaker 1: Let's just say that this game could probably be won 2257 01:53:10,680 --> 01:53:14,679 Speaker 1: at about twenty points. I wouldn't be surprised. But because 2258 01:53:14,720 --> 01:53:18,519 Speaker 1: it's in Vegas, I feel like DeVante Adams could be 2259 01:53:18,560 --> 01:53:21,479 Speaker 1: your difference if nothing else. I tend to agree with 2260 01:53:21,520 --> 01:53:24,800 Speaker 1: you on this. I just I like Kenny Pickett fine, 2261 01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:27,400 Speaker 1: but that's that's kind of where I am with him. 2262 01:53:27,600 --> 01:53:31,000 Speaker 1: He's just he's just a guy. At this stage, there's 2263 01:53:31,080 --> 01:53:33,960 Speaker 1: gonna take more and they're still banged up. They're hurting 2264 01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:36,639 Speaker 1: as well. They've had some crucial losses as a matter 2265 01:53:36,720 --> 01:53:38,439 Speaker 1: of fact, So I kind of like the Raiders too. 2266 01:53:38,920 --> 01:53:41,320 Speaker 2: Tell you what, Jason will come back. We will rap 2267 01:53:41,479 --> 01:53:46,080 Speaker 2: with the rest of the week three NFL slate.

We've had him on many times various shows 2283 01:54:31,600 --> 01:54:32,240 Speaker 2: that I've hosted. 2284 01:54:32,240 --> 01:54:32,360 Speaker 1: Here. 2285 01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:34,440 Speaker 2: He is the play by play voice of the Florida 2286 01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:37,280 Speaker 2: State Seminoles. Florida State Jason, we didn't even get a 2287 01:54:37,320 --> 01:54:40,400 Speaker 2: chance to talk about this game. They rally to win, 2288 01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:43,440 Speaker 2: and you really you called this early in the day, 2289 01:54:43,480 --> 01:54:46,240 Speaker 2: you said, we gotta get this sound into the show 2290 01:54:46,320 --> 01:54:50,800 Speaker 2: because Clemson was up twenty four to seventeen. Late in 2291 01:54:50,880 --> 01:54:54,080 Speaker 2: the third quarter. They were driving and as we just 2292 01:54:54,160 --> 01:54:57,360 Speaker 2: saw as we just heard a scoop and score from 2293 01:54:57,400 --> 01:55:00,000 Speaker 2: Florida State ties up the game. They end up win 2294 01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:04,280 Speaker 2: in overtime. Clemson had all the momentum. They don't we 2295 01:55:04,680 --> 01:55:06,960 Speaker 2: don't know this, but I think they would have won 2296 01:55:07,120 --> 01:55:10,440 Speaker 2: if that play does not happen. Instead, Florida State survives, 2297 01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:13,560 Speaker 2: they advanced. They're now four to zero Clemson zero to 2298 01:55:13,600 --> 01:55:15,000 Speaker 2: two in acc play. 2299 01:55:15,080 --> 01:55:17,400 Speaker 1: Jason, Yeah, I mean, it was just a huge turning 2300 01:55:17,440 --> 01:55:21,600 Speaker 1: point moment because they had just stopped Florida State. That 2301 01:55:21,720 --> 01:55:23,800 Speaker 1: was a hard fought game too, and it was going 2302 01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:25,600 Speaker 1: back and forth and it was kind of hard to 2303 01:55:25,640 --> 01:55:28,520 Speaker 1: see who had the momentum at different times, but at 2304 01:55:28,520 --> 01:55:31,160 Speaker 1: this point it was clearly Clemson. And when they got 2305 01:55:31,160 --> 01:55:32,640 Speaker 1: the ball and they were driving, they had just had 2306 01:55:32,680 --> 01:55:35,400 Speaker 1: a couple of first downs, looked like they were on 2307 01:55:35,440 --> 01:55:37,800 Speaker 1: the verge of scoring. You go up thirty one seventeen 2308 01:55:37,880 --> 01:55:39,960 Speaker 1: in a game like that, you feel pretty good about 2309 01:55:40,000 --> 01:55:44,240 Speaker 1: your chances going into the final quarter and man club 2310 01:55:44,320 --> 01:55:47,040 Speaker 1: Nick got rocked, lost the ball and it ends up 2311 01:55:47,040 --> 01:55:49,280 Speaker 1: in the end zone, ends up tied, and those turn 2312 01:55:49,320 --> 01:55:51,560 Speaker 1: out to be the last points Clempson scores at all 2313 01:55:52,720 --> 01:55:54,960 Speaker 1: after that ties it, and then the only other points 2314 01:55:54,960 --> 01:55:57,720 Speaker 1: are in overtime and they are Florida State points and 2315 01:55:57,760 --> 01:56:00,240 Speaker 1: you see how that goes. There were two obvious game 2316 01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:03,680 Speaker 1: changing play today, one being the final play certainly in 2317 01:56:03,800 --> 01:56:07,720 Speaker 1: South Bend and that play and those were also coincidentally 2318 01:56:07,840 --> 01:56:09,000 Speaker 1: the two best games of the day. 2319 01:56:09,520 --> 01:56:14,360 Speaker 2: They were yes, so we yeah. So Clemson does end 2320 01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:17,600 Speaker 2: up losing, Florida State wins, and as Jason just said, 2321 01:56:18,000 --> 01:56:21,920 Speaker 2: Ohio State holds on on the final play from scrimmage 2322 01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:24,160 Speaker 2: of the game for the buck guys, they score with 2323 01:56:24,280 --> 01:56:27,480 Speaker 2: one second left on the clock. Jas, let's wrap the 2324 01:56:27,480 --> 01:56:29,680 Speaker 2: show just you know, rip through some of these NFL 2325 01:56:29,760 --> 01:56:32,280 Speaker 2: games that we have not gotten to. It is a 2326 01:56:32,440 --> 01:56:35,480 Speaker 2: busy Week four slate or Week three slate. Excuse me 2327 01:56:35,480 --> 01:56:37,800 Speaker 2: as always, we're wrapping up Week four in college football. 2328 01:56:37,840 --> 01:56:40,280 Speaker 2: By the way, should mention the game in the Desert 2329 01:56:40,400 --> 01:56:44,360 Speaker 2: far from over. Arizona State has just scored USC up 2330 01:56:44,480 --> 01:56:49,880 Speaker 2: thirty five to twenty eight. In that one, USC up 2331 01:56:49,960 --> 01:56:52,680 Speaker 2: thirty five to twenty eight, eight minutes to go. That 2332 01:56:52,720 --> 01:56:55,880 Speaker 2: one is far from over. As us trying to avoid 2333 01:56:55,920 --> 01:56:58,160 Speaker 2: the upset, we will keep you updated on that for 2334 01:56:58,160 --> 01:56:59,960 Speaker 2: the next nine minutes and then Bernie Fredda will be 2335 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:02,560 Speaker 2: following us let's keep it going, Jason. We've talked about 2336 01:57:02,560 --> 01:57:04,160 Speaker 2: a bunch of these games, you know, one we didn't 2337 01:57:04,200 --> 01:57:07,320 Speaker 2: get to, and I don't think there's much doubt over 2338 01:57:07,360 --> 01:57:11,520 Speaker 2: who is gonna win, but Chicago at Kansas City. Kansas 2339 01:57:11,560 --> 01:57:14,200 Speaker 2: City with a nice bounce back win over the Jacksonville 2340 01:57:14,280 --> 01:57:18,520 Speaker 2: Jaguars last week. Chicago Bears not so much. They obviously 2341 01:57:18,560 --> 01:57:20,760 Speaker 2: lost to Jordan Love and the Packers in week one, 2342 01:57:20,880 --> 01:57:24,320 Speaker 2: then to Baker Mayfield and the Bucks in week two. 2343 01:57:25,440 --> 01:57:27,400 Speaker 2: Justin Fields, we saw the back and forth with the 2344 01:57:27,400 --> 01:57:30,360 Speaker 2: coaching staff. First it sounded like he was criticizing him, 2345 01:57:30,360 --> 01:57:34,320 Speaker 2: then it sounded like he wasn't. Is Justin Fields like, 2346 01:57:34,600 --> 01:57:36,680 Speaker 2: is he unsalvagable at this point for the Bears. 2347 01:57:37,040 --> 01:57:39,320 Speaker 1: I don't know about unsalvagable, but we're getting into that 2348 01:57:39,480 --> 01:57:42,760 Speaker 1: territory where maybe this is who this guy is. And 2349 01:57:42,800 --> 01:57:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't mean from a mental standpoint that, you know, 2350 01:57:45,200 --> 01:57:47,520 Speaker 1: anybody can say something that they regret or it comes 2351 01:57:47,560 --> 01:57:49,879 Speaker 1: out the wrong way or it's out of context or whatever. 2352 01:57:50,320 --> 01:57:52,760 Speaker 1: I think it's just more of the place, so inconsistent, 2353 01:57:52,840 --> 01:57:55,040 Speaker 1: and I think they may have broken him before they 2354 01:57:55,080 --> 01:57:57,040 Speaker 1: actually got a little bit of talent around him. And 2355 01:57:57,040 --> 01:57:58,720 Speaker 1: that's why I said a few years ago, I felt 2356 01:57:58,760 --> 01:58:01,640 Speaker 1: sorry for him because after watching what they did not 2357 01:58:01,760 --> 01:58:05,000 Speaker 1: do for him last season in the draft or and 2358 01:58:05,080 --> 01:58:07,640 Speaker 1: free agency, they gave him nothing to work with at all. 2359 01:58:08,080 --> 01:58:10,480 Speaker 1: They they may have just kind of stunted his growth 2360 01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:12,800 Speaker 1: to some degree. And now they've got DJ Moore and 2361 01:58:12,800 --> 01:58:15,800 Speaker 1: they have a little bit around him. But I think 2362 01:58:15,840 --> 01:58:17,720 Speaker 1: he's just kind of been in a funk and it's 2363 01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:20,000 Speaker 1: hard to get out of that, and that might be 2364 01:58:20,080 --> 01:58:21,840 Speaker 1: the problem. It may be the kind of thing that 2365 01:58:21,880 --> 01:58:24,720 Speaker 1: a change of scener he can fix, but that that 2366 01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:27,760 Speaker 1: organization was so broken when they drafted him and then 2367 01:58:27,760 --> 01:58:30,480 Speaker 1: they made every bad decision you could possibly make after 2368 01:58:30,520 --> 01:58:32,960 Speaker 1: that point that he's gonna have to go somewhere else 2369 01:58:32,960 --> 01:58:34,080 Speaker 1: to resurrect his career. 2370 01:58:34,440 --> 01:58:38,040 Speaker 2: By the way, Jason, the division that we all agreed 2371 01:58:38,240 --> 01:58:40,600 Speaker 2: was quote unquote by far the worst in the league. 2372 01:58:40,640 --> 01:58:44,880 Speaker 2: The NFC South has three two and oh teams. The 2373 01:58:45,600 --> 01:58:49,840 Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons are taking on tomorrow, they will face the 2374 01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:52,240 Speaker 2: They will be at Detroit to face the Lions. The 2375 01:58:52,280 --> 01:58:54,440 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Bucks, as I just mentioned, are playing on 2376 01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:56,960 Speaker 2: Monday Night Football, and then, oh, by the way, the 2377 01:58:56,960 --> 01:59:00,920 Speaker 2: New Orleans Saints at two and oh are playing tomorrow 2378 01:59:01,040 --> 01:59:03,160 Speaker 2: at Green Bay. Who do you think is the best 2379 01:59:03,200 --> 01:59:03,920 Speaker 2: team in that division? 2380 01:59:03,960 --> 01:59:07,360 Speaker 1: Jays, I think Atlanta is. Oh. Personally, I don't think. 2381 01:59:07,920 --> 01:59:10,800 Speaker 1: I don't think the Saints are great. I don't buy 2382 01:59:10,840 --> 01:59:13,560 Speaker 1: into Tampa Bay at all. Good for them for what 2383 01:59:13,560 --> 01:59:16,600 Speaker 1: they've done to start the year, but I think that's 2384 01:59:16,600 --> 01:59:21,200 Speaker 1: smoking mirrors obviously, Carolina deal with Bryce Young's injury and 2385 01:59:21,240 --> 01:59:23,480 Speaker 1: just him being a rookie and the growing pains of 2386 01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:26,400 Speaker 1: that we're seeing sort of the outpouring. But I think 2387 01:59:26,400 --> 01:59:28,400 Speaker 1: Atlanta is a good football so I think. But John 2388 01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:31,320 Speaker 1: Robinson has already proven to be somebody you can't take 2389 01:59:31,360 --> 01:59:33,400 Speaker 1: your eyes off of when he's on the field. I 2390 01:59:33,400 --> 01:59:36,200 Speaker 1: don't know about Ritter long term, but I really like 2391 01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:38,680 Speaker 1: Arthur Smith. I've of course got to watch a lot 2392 01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:40,720 Speaker 1: of his act when he was here in Nashville with 2393 01:59:40,760 --> 01:59:44,480 Speaker 1: the Titans. He's just a great mind, very very fundamentally 2394 01:59:44,560 --> 01:59:47,520 Speaker 1: sound understands offense. I like their concepts. I like the 2395 01:59:47,520 --> 01:59:50,880 Speaker 1: way they're building down there. I think Atlanta might be 2396 01:59:50,920 --> 01:59:52,320 Speaker 1: the most solid team in the division. 2397 01:59:52,880 --> 01:59:56,160 Speaker 2: The Sager mentioned earlier some bad weather rolling through Washington. 2398 01:59:56,160 --> 01:59:58,680 Speaker 2: They're a six point favorite against the Bills. I think 2399 01:59:58,800 --> 02:00:02,480 Speaker 2: Washington might just be decent, not great, but decent. You know, 2400 02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:05,240 Speaker 2: remember Eric b Enemy is now calling the offense ron 2401 02:00:05,320 --> 02:00:07,800 Speaker 2: rivera handling the defense. They took care of your Broncos 2402 02:00:07,880 --> 02:00:10,040 Speaker 2: last week. I think they might be good. I'm calling 2403 02:00:10,080 --> 02:00:13,040 Speaker 2: for the outright upset commanders beat the Bills tomorrow. 2404 02:00:13,080 --> 02:00:16,840 Speaker 1: Jason. I won't go there. The rain will make it 2405 02:00:16,920 --> 02:00:19,040 Speaker 1: interesting if indeed that's it. I agree with you, though 2406 02:00:19,120 --> 02:00:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised by this, but I think they're pretty good. 2407 02:00:22,120 --> 02:00:24,720 Speaker 1: They're not bad, They're not great, but they're pretty good. 2408 02:00:24,880 --> 02:00:26,600 Speaker 1: I think Buffalo will beat them though. 2409 02:00:26,720 --> 02:00:28,600 Speaker 2: We got got you want to thank the crew, Loraina 2410 02:00:28,640 --> 02:00:31,320 Speaker 2: on the board producer pat Steve de Sager from a partner, 2411 02:00:31,360 --> 02:00:33,800 Speaker 2: Jason Martin, I'm Aren Torres.
