21
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 2: we've got a lot of moving parts this weekend. We've

22
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: got a big Facebook live stint going on pretty much

23
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 2: all morning on Saturday morning. So go to Facebook dot

24
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,840

00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: sorts of videos there on the Alabama football page, on

26
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: the Georgia Football page. We're going to be all over

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 2: Saturday morning, So a lot of moving parts with that.

28
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 2: We've got more moving parts with our live show, our

29
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: big event that we've got planned on Saturday evening. Yes,

30
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 2: in the great city of Atlanta as well. So we're

31
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: going to be very busy while we're down there, which

32
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: means that we both need to get there on time.

33
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: And now, given the fact that we've got the bomb

34
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: cyclone going off here on the East coast, are you

35
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 2: prepared to pull a Dennis Quaid strap on the snowshoes

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: and walk from New York City to Philly to catch

37
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 2: a flight to get down in Atlanta? Is that the

38
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: day after tomorrow? What movie is that?

39
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: That is the day after tomorrow? That's what he had

40
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: to do.

41
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 2: That is the day. I will not be snowshoeing. I

42
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 2: will be skyping in. If I can't get down there,

43
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: I promise you I will be there in spirit and

44
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: in some sort of digital form. No I will make

45
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: it to Atlanta. I will make it to the live show.

46
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 2: That would be ridiculous if I'm not there, and could

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: not be more excited. And I see the sort of

48
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: tickets ticking away. We've got about I don't know, eight

49
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: or ten left. So if you're listening to this, hopefully

50
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 2: you're listening to this before other people who might want

51
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 2: to attend are able to grab them. So we really

52
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 2: are looking forward to seeing everybody in Atlanta, and we're

53
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: going to have a bunch of fun. We've got a

54
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 2: cool planned show looking back on the season, looking forward,

55
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: we're going to have some friends with us on stage

56
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: at a certain points. So I am bursting.

57
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: Tie, I'm very excited for everything. You're feeling better, right,

58
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 1: I am feeling better. The voice is a little bit stronger,

59
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: so got the cough, but it'll be away. It'll be

60
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: gone by Saturday. Okay, I ask you a question, please,

61
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,079
Speaker 1: what are we doing on this here show today? Ty?

62
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: As you know, we have made our hay over the

63
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: last four to five months talking about as many teams

64
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: and as many games in each of our shows as

65
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 1: we could possibly fit in. We had to cut games out,

66
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: We had to cut teams out because we try to

67
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: keep it around forty five minutes, and most of the time,

68
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: at least this season ended up going about seventy five minutes. Indeed,

69
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: we still couldn't fit everything in. This is one of

70
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: those rare shows where we are talking exclusively about one

71
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: football game. One football game, the College Football Playoff National

72
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: Championship Game presented by AT and T on Monday, January

73
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: the eighth, at eight pm on ESPN. Got Alabama, Got Georgia.

74
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: They will play. It's an all SEC affair for the

75
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: National Championship. So we're going to devote our time here

76
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: this evening to talking about one game. We threw ourselves

77
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: into it. I'm excited that we didn't have a whole

78
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: battery of other games we needed to dissect first. We

79
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: can really just put all of our efforts here.

80
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: I'm ready for this tie and I'm I think is

81
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: ESPN doing the Mega cast? I think they are. They

82
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 2: did it during the semi finals, so it's an all

83
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: encompassing experience. I have an idea. I don't know if

84
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: you want to hear it now about one more channel,

85
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: oh should be added? Well, let's save that for our

86
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 2: content here. Let's save it for the content. I have

87
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: a lot of thoughts about Alabama, Georgia, and I am

88
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: I have gotten more excited than I was earlier on

89
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 2: in the week.

90
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: Let's also say this, we understand that as college football goes,

91
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: certainly they moved up National Signing Day this year or

92
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: created a second National Signing Day season, I should say.

93
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: And there's been news going on all around the college

94
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: football ether that we're not going to have ample opportunity

95
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: to address on this show. We understand though, that the

96
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: National Championship Game is not going on into vacuum. There

97
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: are other things happening. Rich Rod is out at Arizona unexpectedly.

98
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: We've got Dave A. Randa getting pretty much the sun, earth, win,

99
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: and fire everything you could possibly want in a new

100
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: contract to remain at LSU as defensive coordinator.

101
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 2: He's the new governor of Louisiana as per my understanding

102
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: of his privileges. Yeah.

103
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: On the flip side, you've got Notre Dame refusing to

104
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: go up and meet Mike Elko, therefore meaning he is

105
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: leaving to take the same job over at Texas A

106
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: and m would Jim both Fisher Yes, And then on

107
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: top of all, of it. We've got players declaring for

108
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft in drobes.

109
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 2: You know, Josh Rosen and Sam Darnold declared. There have

110
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 2: been a few of them throughout college football. Derwin James

111
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 2: has declared early, Malik Jefferson I believe they have until

112
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 2: like January nineteenth. There's some big names, ty, this should

113
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 2: be a pretty loaded draft up top Vitavea from Washington,

114
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: who I believe was the Pac twelve defensive Player of

115
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: the Year. Eddie Pinero the only good thing about Florida's

116
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: offense this year for you know, the kicker obviously, Cameron

117
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: Petway at Auburn and Carrie on Jon also carry On Johnson.

118
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: Yeah that both of those the running backs for Auburn.

119
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 2: So Sam Hubbard Ohio State had a huge game against

120
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,799
Speaker 2: USC and the Cotton Bowl. So yeah, we'll go through

121
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 2: you know, draft eligibility. And Saquon Barclay's obviously the other

122
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: just an enormous name signing with I think Jay Z's

123
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: yep Rock Nation. There was a picture of the two

124
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: of them, so very cool. I hope all of these

125
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 2: guys have long, healthy careers.

126
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: We promise at some point we will go into more

127
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: detail with a lot of this stuff. But today, as

128
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: we said, it's all about the National Championship and if

129
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,200

Speaker 2: Yeah, do you wear when when you have like a

165
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: black tie optional wedding? Are you wearing a black suit?

166
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: Are you wearing a darker suit? Or do you own

167
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: or rent TuS? Usually situation I would run even if

168
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: it's black tie optional, probably you know rented tucks. Yeah,

169
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 2: I so. I camera Guy Dave's wedding real quick before

170
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 2: we get into Alabama, Georgia. It was black tie optional.

171
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 2: I wore a dark suit with a black tie. I

172
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: felt totally fine, but afterwards I thought to myself, maybe

173
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 2: it'd be nice to have a tux.

174
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe it'd be nice.

175
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 2: And of course I went to Endochino and they have

176
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 2: some sharp, sharp tuxes tie. So I think I'm pulling

177
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: that trigger. I think I'm ready.

178
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 1: All right, that's how you know you're a man. Dan.

179
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: Let's get into it, all right, Dan, Daniel, there is

180
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: one more pick left to be made. One on the table.

181
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: It's just out there. It's glittering, gleaming, screaming to be picked.

182
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: As I said earlier, the College Football Playoff National Championship

183
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: Game presented by AT and T. They play it in

184
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 1: Atlanta at Mercedes Benz Stadium, a stadium which honestly looks

185
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: like it landed here from Mars.

186
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 2: Have you seen this thing? I have seen the stadium

187
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 2: and the most appealing thing to me about it because

188
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: it looks like a very very nice place to watch

189
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 2: a football game. They apparently the food there is not

190
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 2: only reasonably priced, like you get a sandwich for five

191
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 2: bucks or something like that, but it's all local, known

192
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 2: Atlanta institutions that are the vendors, which I think is

193
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: pretty rad. So if you're going to the game, I'm

194
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 2: happy for you. You should be eating well, good for you.

195
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: If the outer shell of this stadium that I'm looking

196
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 1: at here on my computer. If the outer shell of it,

197
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: instead of being the silver like it is, if it

198
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: were a translucent shade of pink or red, it would

199
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: bear striking resemblance to the thing that covered up the

200
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: museum in Ghostbusters two. Oh.

201
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 2: I thought you were going somewhere else with that, because

202
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 2: we've sort of alluded to it looking like a robot's

203
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 2: b hole.

204
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, not going there.

205
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 2: Because when you started saying if it were pink, I

206
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 2: was like, Tie, mynd God, now you're broadcasting blue tonight.

207
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 2: Now I love New Tie twenty eighteen. Tie coming at you, okay.

208
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: Monday, January eighth, eight pm on ESPN. A bunch of

209
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: other streams which maybe we can look up before we

210
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: bid fond to do here. It is Alabama at twelve

211
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 1: and one overall, seven to one in the SEC. They

212
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: are a three and a half point favorite over the

213
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: SEC champion Georgia Bulldogs. They come into this game at

214
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: thirteen and one and also seven and one in the SEC.

215
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: Before we get into the actual conversation, here are some

216
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: baseline numbers from Bill Connolly's SMP plus. I'm ready keep

217
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: this in mind, folks. The S and P plus is

218
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: an efficiency metric. It's based a tool. It's a tool.

219
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: It's based on per play data. It doesn't tell you everything,

220
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: Like most of these things, it's a guide. Right. Here

221
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: are the relevant factoids. Alabama overall SMP they are second,

222
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: Ohio State was first, offensive SMP plus ranking twenty second,

223
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: defensive first. Georgia overall third, offensive eleventh, defensive eleventh. The

224
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: one striking difference between the two is that Georgia's got

225
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: a much better special teams unit. All that being said,

226
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: the system per jectx Alabama to win by two point

227
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: three points stan, so they're barely not covering, barely not covering. Okay,

228
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: how do you feel about this game? So?

229
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 2: I am relatively confident that Georgia has a pretty good chance.

230
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: I don't know is that quantifying qualifying enough? Sure? No?

231
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 2: I think this game should be close because both of

232
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 2: these teams are complete. Alabama looks to be a little

233
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 2: bit deeper, which is to be expected given the years

234
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 2: jump that they have in recruiting on Kirby Smart. But

235
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 2: it's not like Mark Richt and his staff at a

236
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 2: below average job. There's a ton of familiarity in this game.

237
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 2: I know a lot of people are going to look

238
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: at the fact that Kirby was, you know, Nick Saban's

239
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 2: longtime defensive coordinator, and sort of the push pull of

240
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: the teacher and student kind of thing, which I think

241
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 2: is not the most accurate way of looking at this.

242
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 2: I just I really think it comes down to quarterbacks,

243
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 2: and I think it comes down to how aggressive these

244
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: offenses are because they have big challenges in these talented defenses.

245
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 2: So there is an element of to me, especially with Georgia,

246
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 2: and I know we're going to sort of talk about

247
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 2: all facets. How much do they view this as we

248
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 2: need to throw everything we possibly can in every possible scenario,

249
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 2: in every possible phase, but mostly offense and special teams

250
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 2: because they should be most confident in their defense. How

251
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 2: much are they willing to play like that from the

252
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 2: opening kickoff? And if they are, I think they've got

253
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: an excellent chance to put themselves in position to win

254
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 2: the game late. If they don't, I think we could

255
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 2: get a very boring even if the score is relatively close,

256
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 2: Even if it ends up like I don't know, twenty

257
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,079
Speaker 2: seven to seventeen or something like that. I think that

258
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 2: throws a lot into doubt. If Georgia says we are

259
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 2: just going to do and play how we always play,

260
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: that is to me the big picture. That is the

261
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 2: thought that I have had repeatedly when thinking about this matchup.

262
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: I want to get back to the thing you said

263
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: about this being about quarterbacks in a moment.

264
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 2: Sure.

265
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: The other important note which needs to be mentioned these

266
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: teams didn't play in the regular season. They are in

267
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: the same conference, they do have some common opponents, and

268
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: in this case they actually share the same loss. Both

269
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: of them lost to Auburn. Alabama, as you know, lost

270
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: to Auburn in the Iron Bowl twenty six to fourteen

271
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: last week the regular season. Georgia lost forty to seventeen.

272
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: Back in the second week of November. Had Georgia been

273
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: a little bit more careful on special teams, you know,

274
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: it's probably a closer loss. But that's water under the

275
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: bridge now forty to seventeen. They obviously bounce back and

276
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: won over Auburn in the SEC Championship game, So perhaps

277
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: some of what we saw Auburn do can be a

278
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: little bit instructive on both sides, the Alabama side as

279
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: well as the Georgia side. Let's get back to the

280
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: quarterback point though, Why do you feel this comes down

281
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: to quarterback play.

282
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 2: So downfield throwing. I like Jake from a little bit

283
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 2: more than Jalen Hurts, which is sort of strange to say,

284
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: because Jalen Hurts has aggressively been in this position before.

285
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 2: This is his second year in a row, after a

286
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 2: true freshman year, going to the National Championship and acquitting

287
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 2: himself well in the National Championship game. He wasn't great

288
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 2: against Washington, but he made plays. He put Alabama in

289
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 2: a position to win at the end of the game

290
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 2: against clumbs and last year, and the defense just couldn't

291
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 2: hold on against an excellent quarterback in Deshaun Watson. He

292
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 2: has I mean, he did not throw the ball downfield

293
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 2: all that well against an excellent Clemson defense. He struggled

294
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: against Auburn. You saw the sort of drives coming to

295
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 2: a halt in the red zone or green zone or

296
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: whatever the case when you were in opponent territory. That

297
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 2: I just have questions because throughout the year, even close

298
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: wins against a techs, A and M or Mississippi State,

299
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 2: in close wins, it has been difficult at times for

300
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, when put into an obvious passing situation third

301
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 2: and eight, third and eleven, third and six, whatever the case,

302
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: where a defense does a good enough job spying him,

303
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 2: keeping an extra man in the box so he can't

304
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 2: just scramble for that seven and a half yards to

305
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 2: keep a drive going that when he has to take

306
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 2: a snap, assess, go through a progression or two step

307
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 2: into the throw and hit a nine yard out, hit

308
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 2: an eleven yard pass up the scene, whatever the case is,

309
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: that he has been a little bit hesitant and he's

310
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 2: just been a little bit off with his throws. So

311
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 2: it concerns me if we're looking at this game in

312
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 2: a vacuum, although all things told, if we're looking at

313
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 2: this sort of holistically, Jalen Hurts has more at his

314
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: disposal on both sides of the field to sort of

315
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 2: make up for any deficiencies he might have in those situations.

316
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 2: And also Alabama might not put him in those situations.

317
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 2: Damien Harris might pick up seven yards of carry and

318
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 2: he'll only have third and two's or whatever third and threes.

319
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: That's the worry for me about Jalen Hurts. It on

320
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 2: the other side, is Jake fromm is the kind of

321
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 2: quarterback that Alabama wants to face, or at least prefers

322
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 2: to face.

323
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you're kind of getting into my point here.

324
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 2: Right, and I will I will let you take it

325
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 2: from here, but sort of broad strokes, Jake from is

326
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,479
Speaker 2: not going to extend plays in the way that And

327
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 2: it sort of annoys me that people when talking about,

328
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 2: you know, well, Alabama's got a weakness. They struggle against

329
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: excellent offenses with excellent mobile quarterbacks, like so does everybody,

330
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: so does literally every tame in college football. So that

331
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 2: is that would be the concern. But yes, when you

332
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 2: look at the teams that have succeeded against Alabama, it's quarterbacks.

333
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 2: And this is this is sort of an echo of

334
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 2: everything we've said for a long time. It's the sort

335
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 2: of fearless quality that Johnny Manzel and Deshaun Watson and

336
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 2: Chad Kelly and even in that game against Trevor Knight,

337
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 2: that those types of quarterbacks have had with bigger receivers

338
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 2: to challenge Alabama's physical cornerbacks and to throw the ball

339
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 2: downfield with little to no abandon right. And I'm not

340
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 2: sure that that fully describes a very good, if not

341
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 2: great quarterback, and Jake from I don't know if that

342
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 2: describes his style and game well.

343
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: And that's my point, okay, because this whole thing in

344
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: college for every college football game, comes down the schemes

345
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: and matchups, in particular matchups, and that's where I get

346
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: hung up. We made this point many moons ago. Let's

347
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: take a look at the teams that Alabama has lost

348
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: to over the last six years, including twenty seventeen. So

349
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: we know about Auburn, we know about Deshan Watson and Clemson.

350
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: We had Ole missed two years in a row. We

351
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: had Ohio State in the playoff, we had Auburn and

352
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: the Kick six, we had Oklahoma in the Trevor Night

353
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: Sugar Bowl Game, and then we had Johnny Manzel back

354
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: in a Texas A and M game in twenty twelve. Yes,

355
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: the common denominator and all those losses is what you said.

356
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: It's a spread offense, it's a mobile quarterback. It's pro

357
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: caliber wide receivers, either of the big and physical variety

358
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: or slightly smaller and more versatile variety, but still very good.

359
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 2: And I would add tight ends to that as well.

360
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: Those are the kinds of teams that Alabama has long to.

361
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: Those are the only teams that Alabama has lost to

362
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: over the last six seasons. It does not mean they

363
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: necessarily struggle against those teams. They've played other teams that

364
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: fit that bill, but those are the kinds of teams

365
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: that this Alabama squad under Nick Saban has lost to.

366
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: That's the common denominator. What I get hung up on

367
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: is that Georgia is not one of those teams. And

368
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: I don't feel like Georgia can contwart itself enough to

369
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 1: become one of those teams in time for this game

370
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: on Monday Night. In fact, Georgia is an awful lot

371
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: like Alabama pre Jalen Hurts, pre Blake Simms, Alabama. Call

372
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: it like the mccaren era.

373
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 2: Right.

374
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: You need to go back to twenty eleven against LSU

375
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: to find a game that Bama lost to a power

376
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: rushing team. So is all this to say that Georgia

377
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 1: won't win the game. They can't know, of course, not

378
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: Like you said, it's a razor thin margin. But despite

379
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: Alabama's staff changes over the years, I still like the

380
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: defensive continuity. Just with having Nick Saban as the coach,

381
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: I have to pick Alabama here, and I don't want

382
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 1: to put the car before the horse. We got a

383
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 1: lot more to talk about. But I think it's a

384
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: low scoring game. I think it's defensive minded. I trust

385
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts to make a big play when it counts.

386
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: I think he's seen more action like this than a

387
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: guy like Jake from who's been very good and has

388
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: not shot himself in the foot at all this season.

389
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: But I still trust a little bit more in Jalen

390
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: Hurts and the overall depth that I think Alabama brings to.

391
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 2: Bear interestingly, so to flip it, just because we talked

392
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 2: about the concerns with quarterbacks and Jake Fromm being you know,

393
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 2: less experienced than Jalen Hurts, and Jalen Hurts struggling in

394
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 2: certain situations. You have many interceptions Jalen Hurts through this

395
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 2: year against teams with winning records.

396
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: It's either one or none.

397
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 2: It's zero. It is zero. And if there is anything

398
00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 2: sort of big picture that helps to define what winning

399
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 2: quarterbacks do, they don't screw up. They do not give

400
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 2: the defense anything. And I think Jake From through three

401
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 2: he had like fourteen touchdowns to three and a.

402
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: Bad as a true freshman.

403
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 2: By the way, that's not bad at all. He led

404
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 2: against winning FBS team, so this is not just winning

405
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 2: SEC teams. Jake From led the SEC in efficiency ratings, whatever,

406
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 2: yards per attempt, touchdown passes like he was. I think

407
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 2: we can sort of get stuck in the like Jake

408
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 2: From is underrated, jack From is very good. Jake From

409
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 2: throws with a certain amount of confidence and even mechanics,

410
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 2: like he steps into his throats, he throws with rhythm.

411
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: He is a quarterback way ahead of his age. He

412
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 2: throws like a young junior, something like that where he

413
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 2: has seen things when in fact he started because Starter

414
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 2: got hurt and that started what against Notre Dame right

415
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: in his first game, he goes South Bend against a

416
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 2: very good defense, sorry about Mike Helco and looks totally

417
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 2: poised and you know, is not the reason why they

418
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 2: overall won that game, but he didn't lose that game

419
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 2: for them. And what he did against not great but

420
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: pretty good Oklahoma defense. Then throughout the season Auburn's defense

421
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 2: twice we've seen what Jake From looks like, struggling and

422
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 2: helping to cost his team a big game. But aside

423
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 2: from those moments. Jake fromm has been nothing but just

424
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 2: ruthlessly efficient. And it's not screens, ty, it's not slants,

425
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 2: it's play action downfield. The question now remains, if the

426
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 2: run is taken away and Jake from does have to

427
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 2: throw the ball thirty five times, I don't know how

428
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 2: many times he threw it against it. It might have been

429
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: that many against Oklahoma. It appears now twenty nine times.

430
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 2: He didn't crack thirty all year long. So if he

431
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 2: has to throw thirty plus times, what does that look

432
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 2: like for Georgia, That's to me a pretty significant question.

433
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: I'm I think I'm most interested in the offensive side

434
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: of the football for both of these teams, primarily because

435
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: both defenses are so darn good. There's just not a

436
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 1: lot wiggle room. I'm so impressed with the Georgia story

437
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, I mean everyone's heard about Rokwan Smith,

438
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: and rightfully so, but especially that linebacking corps beyond him.

439
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: Let's not forget about Big Lorenzo Carter, a long arm

440
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: of the law at six six, or DeAndre Walker, who

441
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,239
Speaker 1: didn't have as many tackles, but he had just as

442
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: many sacks and more tackles for loss. They go pretty

443
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: deep in terms of playmakers on defense and their front

444
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 1: sevens outstanding. They're good against both the run and the pass,

445
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 1: a top ten defense on both fronts, as is Alabama.

446
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: But I just wonder how much can either team change

447
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,479
Speaker 1: what they do normally on offense to really throw a

448
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: curveball at these opposing defenses. With that in mind, I

449
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: think Alabama is probably better equipped with Jalen Hurts, his

450
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: mobility and some of the things that he can do

451
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: to mold their offense to create a wrinkle that Georgia

452
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 1: might not be able to do because they're much more

453
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: of a power rushing oriented school.

454
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 2: Here's a sort of follow up to the thought that

455
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 2: we had been talking about of you know, what have

456
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 2: teams done successfully against this, you know, vaunted Alabama defense

457
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 2: and something those teams have in common aside from the

458
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,719
Speaker 2: sort of stylistic play of quarterbacks. And I'm sure Alabama

459
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 2: is thrilled not to play Baker Mayfield. Sure it's teams

460
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 2: can't run against Alabama. Even teams that beat Alabama can't

461
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 2: run against Alabama. They have not given up i think

462
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 2: five yards of carry even four yards of carry since

463
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 2: and this is over a couple of years ago now,

464
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 2: that Georgia game from twenty fifteen, which if you'll remember,

465
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 2: it was something like thirty five to three, and I

466
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,120
Speaker 2: think it was Nick Chubb who ripped off like an

467
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 2: eighty yard run. So that sort of skews it a

468
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 2: little bit. So teams that do beat or hang with

469
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 2: Alabama typically have to do it in all phases. But

470
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 2: there's something else that that sort of can be done

471
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 2: that Georgia has not done, and teams that have hung

472
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 2: with or beat in Alabama have done. And it's if

473
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 2: you can't get offense going with any sort of rhythm

474
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: or any sort of consistency, there is there is a

475
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 2: very specific wrinkle. And those offenses played with a little

476
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 2: bit of pace, they played with a little bit of tempo.

477
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 2: And even you know, Mississippi State this season, even Auburn

478
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 2: this season, these weren't super fast teams, but they were

479
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 2: top forty, top fifty in terms of plays per second

480
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 2: or whatever, you know, whatever the tempo metric you want

481
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 2: to use. Georgia is something like one hundred and tenth.

482
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 2: Georgia is very deliberate with how they play. Hard to

483
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 2: fault them the results have you know, they speak to themselves. Yeah,

484
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 2: but if they're not able to sort of get loose

485
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 2: for six yards here, eight yards here, four yards here

486
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 2: with Sony Michelle or Nick Chobb or Deandres whoever, I

487
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 2: don't know if that's a gear they have to sort

488
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 2: of wrinkle things up. But maybe they do. Maybe they do,

489
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 2: Maybe they did it.

490
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: Look again, George has been an awesome story on so

491
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: many fronts. Kirby Smart rewire this team in two seasons,

492
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: catching everybody by surprise. Hell, the way he rewired this

493
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 1: team after Jacob Eeson got hurt in Week one that

494
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: caught a lot of people by surprise. The defense has

495
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: been so good outside of the first half, and maybe

496
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: the Rose Bull and a few bumps along the way.

497
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 2: As a whole.

498
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: The way this team played within itself and to its

499
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 1: strengths all year is one impressed me the most because

500
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: they knew every step of the way exactly who they were,

501
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of value in having a good,

502
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: strong identity. What I wonder now is they go into

503
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: this game not just about the wrinkles and can they

504
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: produce them to throw Alabama off its defensive game, but

505
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 1: if they do try to stay within themselves and try

506
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: to beat it right up the middle, try to pound

507
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: Alabama up front, try to wear them down the way

508
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: they've worn down so many other opponents. Is that something

509
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: they can do now? We know about some of Alabama's

510
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: deficiencies at linebacker, but they've gotten some of those guys back,

511
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 1: and you know how it is when guys go down

512
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:05,640
Speaker 1: with injury, other guys step in you sort of inadvertently

513
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 1: build depth. Right. Sure, Alabama has been very strong against

514
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: the run the entire way and really the entire tenure

515
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: of Nick Saban. Is this a squad that's going to

516
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: wear down over time if Georgia tries to come at

517
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: them with Sony Michelle and Nick Chubb.

518
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 2: I mean they're down a linebacker Anthony Jennings, who who

519
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 2: is you know? I think just went under the knife.

520
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 2: He played really well against Clemson but hurt himself. So

521
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 2: they are not thin. But you know, no Sean Dion Hamilton,

522
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 2: you know, they're not where they'd like to be health

523
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 2: wise at a couple of key positions up front.

524
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just feel like they've they've been

525
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: in this situation before. Yeah, you know, a power rushing

526
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 1: team against Alabama is generally tough sledding, and I think that,

527
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: above all else is part of why I feel so

528
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: confident in going with Alabama.

529
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 2: Now, recent results against the more quote like power you know,

530
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 2: under center just hat on hat offenses have been good,

531
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 2: but not excellent, And certainly George is as talented, if

532
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 2: not more talented, than some of the teams that have

533
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 2: succeeded against Alabama. Now, Mississippi State does not run under center,

534
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,919
Speaker 2: but they go straight at teams, you know, between tackles whatever,

535
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 2: with Nick Fitzgerald, Aris Williams both you know, finding success

536
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 2: at times against Alabama. And you know, a few years

537
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 2: ago Arkansas, when they were more running power stuff than

538
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 2: they were, more wide open stuff through the air, they

539
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 2: had success against Alabama and LSU, and they got shut

540
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 2: out last year, but it was still they allowed ten points,

541
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 2: and only allowing ten points is certainly a huge, huge win.

542
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 2: I think it's easy to argue that George's offense this

543
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 2: year is ahead of where LSU's offense was last year,

544
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 2: So I don't think it's a prohibitive issue. I just

545
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 2: think the margin for air is so slim, and it's

546
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: going to be fun to see because even against Oklahoma,

547
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 2: the holes that Sony Michelle and Nick chub are running through.

548
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: Those aren't accidents. That's good scot sound scheming. That's misdirecting.

549
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 2: They do a good job sort of dressing things up

550
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: a bit. But man, Alabama's tough to fool.

551
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: They are.

552
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 2: Man, are they tough?

553
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: They are. Let's talk about the Alabama offense. Now, sure

554
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 1: we focused a lot on what Georgia Canner can't do

555
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: to confuse Alabama. But here's part of the reason why

556
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: I think I trust a little bit more and Jalen

557
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: Hurts in Alabama. Okay, now we know that they've got

558
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: this multi headed monster upfront. I mean they've been very

559
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: I guess generous in terms of who they've given the

560
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: ball to. Just in a rushing attack. Right, Damian Harris

561
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: Bo Garborough were the two main running backs who featured

562
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: in this running game. Jalen Hurts also had nearly as

563
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: many carries as both of them, actually more than both Garborough,

564
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,479
Speaker 1: so they can come at you a couple different ways

565
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: in that rushing game. They also have Calvin Ridley out wide,

566
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 1: who overwhelmingly had the most targets on the roster, had

567
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: five tires, almost six times as many catches as the

568
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: next closest guy. My question to you is knowing that

569
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: if Georgia goes out and says, all right, we're gonna

570
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna take away Calvin Ridley kind of like they

571
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: took away you know, the running game for Oklahoma last week.

572
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna take away Calvin Ridley.

573
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, in the second half. We should add Ron Anderson

574
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 2: ran crazy in the first half.

575
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: Correct, That is correct. We're gonna take away Calvin Ridley,

576
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: and we are going to devote all of our other

577
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: resources to stopping Damien Harris to stop being Bo Scarborough.

578
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: That still leaves a guy unaccounted for and Jalen Hurts. Yeah,

579
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,239
Speaker 1: is that a winning stratt? What is the strategy if

580
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 1: you're the Georgia defense here.

581
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 2: I assume that they're going to have to spy Jalen

582
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 2: Hurts constantly and sort of play him laterally better than

583
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 2: most teams can because they can't. Their linebacking corps is, arguably,

584
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 2: when healthy and healthier than Alabama's right now, the best

585
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 2: in the nation.

586
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

587
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: So the thought is they are going to force him

588
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 2: to play a more traditional take the ball, scan the

589
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 2: field and make a throw. And so it's honestly, it's

590
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: winning first and second down and forcing those. Third and

591
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 2: six is third and sevens where Jalen Hurts has to

592
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 2: think he has to take a beat and beyond. I mean,

593
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 2: that's obviously easier said than done. He's got a very

594
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 2: good offensive line in front of him. They can do

595
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 2: stuff in the screen game to confuse and to sort

596
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 2: of keep George's defense off balance. But it's a basic question,

597
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 2: and the execution is a little bit more complex. But yeah,

598
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 2: it is force Alabama into as many passing downs as possible.

599
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: Well, we'll see, I think with all that being said,

600
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: then the things that we are watching collectively with Alabama's offense,

601
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: we're watching to see how they do on first and

602
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: second downs. Yes, are they able to get the ball

603
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: out to Calvin Ridley? What kind of success does Jalen

604
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: Hurts have either as a passer or a runner or both.

605
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: Where is he focusing more of his efforts? And then

606
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: on the Georgia side, what kind of wrinkles, if any

607
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: can they introduce? What kind of curveball can they throw

608
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: at a very good Alabama defense? Can they wear that

609
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: Alabama defense down over the course of sixty minutes?

610
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: Another question I think worth asking as it relates to

611
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, is if he comes out and they go

612
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 2: three and out three of the first four drives into

613
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 2: the second quarter, do we see Tua. There were reports

614
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: before the Clemson game, and I'm positive Alabama took this

615
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 2: Clemson team very very seriously, that it would be a

616
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: tight game. The whole way through. There were reports that

617
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 2: Toa was going to see time on the field. I

618
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 2: don't believe he ended up seeing time, But if there

619
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 2: are reports for Clemson, I would imagine it won't be

620
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 2: all that different against Georgia that they anticipate having the

621
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 2: need at some point to show a different look to

622
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 2: the Georgia defense, which to I think offers a little

623
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 2: bit more unpredictable. I would say, sure, And I wonder

624
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 2: how quick you know, Brian Dable and Nick Saban are

625
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 2: to say Jalen Hurts has not found a rhythm against

626
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 2: a tough defense. Let's see what the lefty does.

627
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: Well, I wonder, and that's assuming that he doesn't find

628
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: the rhythm.

629
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: But sure, yeah, that is assuming, and that is you know,

630
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: he came in games during the season at all sorts

631
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 2: of random points. A lot of the times Alabama was

632
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 2: already putting teams away, but he was still coming in

633
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 2: in the second quarter or something like that. So on

634
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 2: a stage this big, and obviously they trusted Jalen Hurts

635
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 2: last year as a true freshman, So I don't think

636
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 2: that can be a legitimate question if Nick Saban's willing

637
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 2: to play a true freshman. But I guess a true

638
00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 2: freshman backup is a little bit different. So, man, that

639
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 2: would be something if middle of the second quarter Alabama's

640
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 2: up three to nothing, if they're just like, well, let's

641
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 2: see if we can throw something different at them.

642
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 1: It's interesting to watch, another interesting thing to watch, and

643
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: sort of a minor hedge that I just want to

644
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: get on the record here please, So my final score

645
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: prediction is twenty one to seventeen Alabama. Okay, I think

646
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: a low scoring game. I think under the total of

647
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: forty five. I guess what's said thirty eight points. I'm

648
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,479
Speaker 1: going with somewhere in the neighborhood. But in a game

649
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: like this, where that margin is so razor thin and

650
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: where defense really does carry the water on both sides

651
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: of the game, it needs to be said how good

652
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 1: Georgia is on special teams I.

653
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 2: Was going to go right there. Continue Exhibit A.

654
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: They blocked a kick last week in overtime against Oklahoma.

655
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: They might not win that game if they don't block

656
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: the kick. Who knows, right, But they blocked a big kick.

657
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: Next play, they get a big run from Sony Michelle,

658
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: they win the game. Exhibit B would be Rodrigo Blankenship

659
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: and he's got the goofy mustache and maybe a fake name.

660
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, okay, but he hit all sixty one

661
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: extra points this year. He kicked a fifty five yarder

662
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: at the end of the first half last week against Oklahoma.

663
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 1: That's a weapon in a defensive game like this. If

664
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: you've got range out to fifty five, that's a damn weapon.

665
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: And then I'd say Exhibit CE is George's punter whose

666
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: last name I'm not even gonna try. I can't say it,

667
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: Nazilek Sure, I'm gonna take your word for it, Dan.

668
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: He has pinned teams inside their own twenty Yeah, nearly

669
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: forty percent of his punts. And that's not sexy, and

670
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 1: that's not something you're gonna see in a lot of

671
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: scouting reports. But field position in a close, defensive minded

672
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,360
Speaker 1: game can sometimes mean everything you talk about how you

673
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: doing on first and second downs. He's staying ahead of

674
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: the chains. If you can't flip the field in a

675
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 1: game like this, more often than not, you're gonna lose.

676
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 1: Georgia has a lot going for it on that special

677
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: team side of the equation that we at least need

678
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 1: to make here if we want to be honest.

679
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Georgia has the nugget the wrinkle advantage.

680
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 2: I think you know little thing. You know. They're incredible

681
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 2: on third down. You know, against SEC teams, they were

682
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 2: the best team in the conference converting third downs. I

683
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 2: think there was something like forty or in the forties percent.

684
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 2: They were nearly doing it once out of every two tries.

685
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 2: So I think the point about special teams is correct,

686
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 2: especially if we're looking at this game as having a

687
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 2: razor thin margin. Because of the familiarity, it'll be tough

688
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 2: to really get one over on each other. And by

689
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 2: the way, Georgia's punter is a grad transfer. Do you

690
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 2: remember where he remember seeing where he transferred from?

691
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 1: No, I don't.

692
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 2: That'd be the Columbia Lions. In all the football's one

693
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 2: true city city, New York. So Georgia relying on that

694
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 2: that northern college football flavor really is going under noticed. Yeah,

695
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 2: I think you're totally right. I give the advantage on

696
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 2: the defensive line to Alabama. I give the advantage to

697
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 2: linebackers barely because I think Russia Rashaan Evans is incredible.

698
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 2: But to Georgia the secondary because of Mika Fitzpatrick, probably

699
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 2: to Alabama. The offensive line to me is almost a

700
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 2: toss up. But you know, I really like both of these,

701
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 2: you know, running backs. I probably slightly give to Georgia

702
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:16,720
Speaker 2: because I love the home run ability of Sony Michelle

703
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:20,280
Speaker 2: and DeAndre Swift. Receivers. I think probably goes to Alabama,

704
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 2: but I don't love either. You know, Terry Godwin's great

705
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 2: and Cam Ridley's great, but they neither one of these.

706
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 2: And you know, Alabama has Jerry Judy, a five star freshmen.

707
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 2: It's probably Alabama. But there isn't a lot of decisive

708
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 2: leans for me when you talk about position groups. But

709
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 2: the special teams thing is big, and we're already forgetting that. JK.

710
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 2: Scott is an incredible punter as well. Yep, And so

711
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 2: it's uh, it's close, man. You have what twenty one seventeen.

712
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 1: I am gonna go my official prediction, I'm gonna go

713
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 1: twenty one seventeen. Yeah, Alabama. I trust more in an

714
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 1: Alabama's defense to stop Georgia's offense, and I do trust

715
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurst to make a big play even if everything

716
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: else breaks down, whether it's him, whether it's Tua. I

717
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: think the Alabama quarterback position is where they have enough

718
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 1: room to add a wrinkle to make this game more

719
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: confusing for the Georgia defense.

720
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm going to go with and it's

721
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,839
Speaker 2: actually quite tough for me to see Alabama putting up

722
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 2: more than twenty to twenty four points just because of

723
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,760
Speaker 2: what we saw from this offense last week against Clemson.

724
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 2: A'llbe a very different style defense they're playing against Georgia,

725
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 2: and we've seen Georgia completely lay an egg, whereas I don't.

726
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 2: We've seen sort of an egg from Alabama, but I

727
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 2: think less so than Georgia did against Auburn. I have

728
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 2: this as Alabama twenty four to fourteen.

729
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: Okay.

730
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 2: I think they're going to get a defensive or special

731
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 2: teams touchdown, and I think it's going to be a

732
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 2: frustrating day for Jake from I really I think they

733
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 2: start out well. I think things are scripted well early on,

734
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 2: but I think Alabama sort of solves that puzzle coming

735
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 2: up into halftime, and twenty four to fourteen feels about

736
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 2: right for me.

737
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: So we're going double Alabama here.

738
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 2: Double Alabama, and I guess you have them barely covering.

739
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 2: I have them a little bit more comfortably covering. Yeah,

740
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 2: it's so tough when Alabama feels like they're starting on

741
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 2: second base with that defense, and I know George's defense

742
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 2: is incredible, Alabama's defense is even a rung above that.

743
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 2: And so I hope I'm wrong, and it's a much

744
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 2: closer game and it's sort of a toss up at

745
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 2: the end, goes to overtime, something crazy, I really do.

746
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 2: But when you start ahead like that, because of what

747
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 2: you're able to do, just in terms of not having

748
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 2: to play so many guys up with the box and

749
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,839
Speaker 2: to be able to disguise so many things, I think

750
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 2: it's going to be difficult for Georgia to score more

751
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 2: than a couple touchdowns.

752
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: Would a shootout be the most unlikely result of this game?

753
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you know, a thirty eight to thirty five

754
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 2: game would be dumbfounding. But again, I and I'm only

755
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 2: going to speak for myself. I'm a dumb person, So

756
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:03,919
Speaker 2: you know, take it for what it's worth.

757
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: A lot of the games that you think are going

758
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,360
Speaker 1: to be defensive slug fests or on the flip side

759
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 1: shootouts end up being quite the opposite. Yeah, so maybe

760
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 1: maybe this game will surprise us. Nonetheless, two really good teams,

761
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: two good stories. Alabama's been here before, They've been in

762
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs all four years. This is sort of Georgia's

763
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: climb back into and.

764
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 2: They're ahead of schedule, way ahead of schedule.

765
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,760
Speaker 1: This is their climb back up into the national relevance

766
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 1: that they were so desperately seeking when they got rid

767
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,280
Speaker 1: of a very good coach and Mark Richt and decided

768
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: to go Kirby Smart.

769
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 2: Yeah it is uh and I say ahead of schedule,

770
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 2: but this was probably going to be the year because

771
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 2: of how much they returned from last year. You look

772
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 2: at the number of upperclassmen on defense, it's a bunch

773
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 2: of juniors and seniors along that front, and even secondary

774
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 2: is you know, there's a ton of experience there. Georgia

775
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 2: has I think a little bit of an advantage with

776
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 2: health which probably can't be overstated for most teams. For Alabama,

777
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 2: I feel like they're able to weather so much. Yeah,

778
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 2: what Kirby Smart has done, and I always think the

779
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 2: sort of x's and o's and scheme stuff. You know,

780
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 2: he inherited these players essentially. I think the and you

781
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 2: alluded to this earlier, the idea of him getting everybody

782
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 2: on the same page both in the off season, both

783
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 2: starting with last season, and then once Jacob Eason goes

784
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,360
Speaker 2: down and they go to a backup quarterback going on

785
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,959
Speaker 2: the road to a good Notre Dame team, and it's

786
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 2: just the sort of day in, day out stuff that

787
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 2: a lot of former Nick Saban assistants have struggled with.

788
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,799
Speaker 2: Whereas Kirby Smart, for whatever reason, if it's just his

789
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 2: own makeup and constitution, if it's the fact that he

790
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 2: spent so much time in Tuscaloosa and really waited for

791
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 2: the right opportunity, the sort of day to day focus

792
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 2: of this team has been incredibly impressive. And that's how

793
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 2: they end up in a place like this, to be

794
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 2: able to win both a thirteen to ten style game

795
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 2: and then to go to the Rose Bowl three thousand

796
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 2: miles away against a high flying Oklahoma team and be

797
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 2: able to win playing that not style, but in that

798
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 2: fashion and is I think it speaks to the sort

799
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 2: of and total cliche that like play to play aspect

800
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 2: of this Georgia team.

801
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 1: All right, well, on that note, yes, one more time,

802
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: I've got twenty one seventeen Alabama on Monday evening. I

803
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: think they'll be crowned your college football national champion. Dan Rubinstein,

804
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: my beloved co host, twenty four to fourteen Alabama.

805
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 2: We agree, we agree? Anything else about the game that

806
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 2: intrigues you? I mean I mentioned the Mega cast, sure

807
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,359
Speaker 2: that I think they're doing. This is what I really want.

808
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 2: This is my dream. I just want. And I don't

809
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 2: know how many channels ESPN has at this point. They

810
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 2: should probably just do this with the SEC network instead

811
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 2: of showing like radio hosts. I just want a scroll

812
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 2: of Alabama and Georgia message boards, like a live updating

813
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 2: feed of people just losing their minds. That to me

814
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 2: reflects college football more than most things pretty accurately do.

815
00:42:56,440 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: There are a bunch of accessory feeds, complementary feeds that

816
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 1: we'll be available through ESPN. Watch them all, flip around,

817
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: sample every one of them. I believe our friend Adam A.

818
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: Mean is going to be doing one.

819
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 2: I believe, so yeah.

820
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 1: Let us know which is your favorite and do call

821
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: in the reverb and we got one more reverbs to do.

822
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,439
Speaker 1: Our boy Taylor is on board four eight. Verbal one

823
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 1: is the phone number. Call in during the game, before

824
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 1: the game, after the game, let us know what's on

825
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: your mind, let us know what your thoughts are, and

826
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 1: we'll do our best to work it into the final

827
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: reverb segment of the year, just to sort of close

828
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: it all out, tie it in a nice little bow.

829
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 1: Dan and I are going to record on Tuesday to

830
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 1: cap the game, cap the season, and plod forward into

831
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: the great offseason.

832
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,800
Speaker 2: And we have so let's review what is also happening weekend.

833
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 2: As you know, we released the show beforehand and shows.

834
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 2: I think we'll have a bonus show. Is that correct

835
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 2: is career in this game. We will have a bonus

836
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 2: show with our pal Chris B. Brown of Chrispy Brown

837
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 2: of smartfootball dot Com formerly grant Land. He's done stuff

838
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 2: for Espionation and has written a couple of books. So

839
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 2: look for that bonus show sort of deep diving scheme

840
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 2: stuff and what these defenses are trying to do offensively.

841
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 2: How do you prepare for, you know, one week going

842
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 2: against Oklahoma, the next week going against Alabama, and then

843
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 2: we've got Facebook Live at Media Day. We're going to

844
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 2: do a video Q and A from It's not Radio

845
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 2: Row right, it's called Audio Avenue. Audio Avenue, yes, and

846
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: so hopefully we'll be able to rope in some friends there.

847
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,239
Speaker 2: We've got the live show Saturday night, six pm to

848
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,800
Speaker 2: eight pm at Switchyards. Go to Soliverble dot com for tickets.

849
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: There's only little it's a grip of tickets left, so

850
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 2: people have really grabbed these quickly. I like that. And

851
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 2: then what Tuesday we will release a recap show. Yep,

852
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 2: did I hit everything? Did I miss anything?

853
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? The only other thing that I would add is

854
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:55,399
Speaker 1: on the Facebook front. Just going out to Facebook dot

855
00:44:55,400 --> 00:45:00,759
Speaker 1: com first off, like the soliverbal Facebook page, and then

856
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: just stay tuned all throughout the morning on Saturday. You'll

857
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 1: be notified. I think that's the way it works. Facebook

858
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: will notify you when we go live. But Facebook's been

859
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,399
Speaker 1: very kind Dan, They've got a whole set built up.

860
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 1: They're going to bring players to you and I we're

861
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:18,919
Speaker 1: going to play games with them We're going to ask

862
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: them questions about the game itself. We're going to ask

863
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 1: them questions about themselves as people, as individuals, human beings,

864
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: try to get to know some of the players and

865
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: coaches and staff members a little bit better, and we

866
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: might bring some of our own friends on set to

867
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 1: talk about other aspects of the game as well. So

868
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot going on all throughout the

869
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 1: day on Saturday. We would very much encourage anyone who

870
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,120
Speaker 1: listens to the show, who likes the show to go

871
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: on out like our Facebook page and just come along

872
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: for the ride with us. We're very much looking forward

873
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 1: to it. I'm hoping my voice is a little bit

874
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:53,240
Speaker 1: stronger by then.

875
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 2: It held up.

876
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: Pretty well through the course of this show, so I

877
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 1: think I'll be all right in two days time now.

878
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: But really looking forward to getting out there and not

879
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 1: only talking college football with our friends and players and

880
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: coaches and all that, but also with you. It's always

881
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 1: a good time.

882
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to it. And if listen, if you're

883
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 2: familiar with Atlanta, hit us with some food recommendations. We're

884
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:17,919
Speaker 2: going to be hungry. We're going to be working a lot.

885
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 2: We need calories.

886
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,359
Speaker 1: Oh, and final point, Yeah, where are we going after

887
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: the live show?

888
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:23,960
Speaker 3: Oh?

889
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 2: We are going to let me I actually I'm a

890
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 2: little bit bummed that the Falcons are playing because that

891
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 2: really is screwing up our plans. But I think it's

892
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 2: Park Bar in Atlanta. That's the plan right now. If

893
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 2: it's swamped, we'll move somewhere else. But yeah, it's Park

894
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 2: Bar in Atlanta. They have tots, it appears it's a

895
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 2: huge bar. So we're going to go after then for

896
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 2: drinks and continue hanging out with with for ballers. So

897
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 2: park Bar, I guess a little after eight. So if

898
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 2: you're not able to make the live show because of anything,

899
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 2: that's where we're going to be heading in downtown out.

900
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:01,400
Speaker 1: That does it?

901
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 2: Boom.

902
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 1: We are off early tomorrow to the four oh four.
