<v Speaker 1>ty He'll the brand joining me over there.

0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 3>In snowy in Windy in bomb Cycloney, New York City.

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Dan Rubinstein, sir, how are you are you surviving? I

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.519
<v Speaker 3>am in the eye of the snow clone. Tie, I

0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:39.479
<v Speaker 3>am in the eye.

0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 2>I worked from home today, which I as everybody that's

0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:46.760
<v Speaker 2>ever listened to this show knows, I'm a little bit soft. Yeah,

0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 2>that's okay. I'm self aware enough to admit that I'm excited, though,

0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 2>Ty as, I'm sure you are. So it's I don't know,

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 2>someone like twenty two degrees right now tomorrow as we

0:00:57.120 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 2>record this Thursday evening, we are heading down to Sonny

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.520
<v Speaker 2>and I assume Nope, it is not warm. It is

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:06.160
<v Speaker 2>thirty degrees right now in Atlanta. Let me ask you

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 2>a very important logistic question, Dan, because as you know,

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 2>we've got a lot of moving parts this weekend. We've

0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:15.880
<v Speaker 2>got a big Facebook live stint going on pretty much

0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 2>all morning on Saturday morning. So go to Facebook dot

0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:22.840
<v Speaker 2>com look up the solid Verbal. We'll be doing all

0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 2>sorts of videos there on the Alabama football page, on

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 2>the Georgia Football page. We're going to be all over

0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Saturday morning, So a lot of moving parts with that.

0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.800
<v Speaker 2>We've got more moving parts with our live show, our

0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 2>big event that we've got planned on Saturday evening. Yes,

0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>in the great city of Atlanta as well. So we're

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.120
<v Speaker 2>going to be very busy while we're down there, which

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.160
<v Speaker 2>means that we both need to get there on time.

0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 2>And now, given the fact that we've got the bomb

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.640
<v Speaker 2>cyclone going off here on the East coast, are you

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 2>prepared to pull a Dennis Quaid strap on the snowshoes

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:57.440
<v Speaker 2>and walk from New York City to Philly to catch

0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.560
<v Speaker 2>a flight to get down in Atlanta? Is that the

0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 2>day after tomorrow? What movie is that?

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 1>That is the day after tomorrow? That's what he had

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:03.160
<v Speaker 1>to do.

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 2>That is the day. I will not be snowshoeing. I

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 2>will be skyping in. If I can't get down there,

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.080
<v Speaker 2>I promise you I will be there in spirit and

0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 2>in some sort of digital form. No I will make

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:16.200
<v Speaker 2>it to Atlanta. I will make it to the live show.

0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:19.800
<v Speaker 2>That would be ridiculous if I'm not there, and could

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 2>not be more excited. And I see the sort of

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 2>tickets ticking away. We've got about I don't know, eight

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>or ten left. So if you're listening to this, hopefully

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 2>you're listening to this before other people who might want

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:32.919
<v Speaker 2>to attend are able to grab them. So we really

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 2>are looking forward to seeing everybody in Atlanta, and we're

0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:36.720
<v Speaker 2>going to have a bunch of fun. We've got a

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:39.799
<v Speaker 2>cool planned show looking back on the season, looking forward,

0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:41.600
<v Speaker 2>we're going to have some friends with us on stage

0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:45.120
<v Speaker 2>at a certain points. So I am bursting.

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Tie, I'm very excited for everything. You're feeling better, right,

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.359
<v Speaker 1>I am feeling better. The voice is a little bit stronger,

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 1>so got the cough, but it'll be away. It'll be

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>gone by Saturday. Okay, I ask you a question, please,

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.079
<v Speaker 1>what are we doing on this here show today? Ty?

0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:03.520
<v Speaker 1>As you know, we have made our hay over the

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.200
<v Speaker 1>last four to five months talking about as many teams

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>and as many games in each of our shows as

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.359
<v Speaker 1>we could possibly fit in. We had to cut games out,

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>We had to cut teams out because we try to

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.160
<v Speaker 1>keep it around forty five minutes, and most of the time,

0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.360
<v Speaker 1>at least this season ended up going about seventy five minutes. Indeed,

0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:23.720
<v Speaker 1>we still couldn't fit everything in. This is one of

0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 1>those rare shows where we are talking exclusively about one

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:32.320
<v Speaker 1>football game. One football game, the College Football Playoff National

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Championship Game presented by AT and T on Monday, January

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>the eighth, at eight pm on ESPN. Got Alabama, Got Georgia.

0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:44.960
<v Speaker 1>They will play. It's an all SEC affair for the

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:47.480
<v Speaker 1>National Championship. So we're going to devote our time here

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:50.840
<v Speaker 1>this evening to talking about one game. We threw ourselves

0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.600
<v Speaker 1>into it. I'm excited that we didn't have a whole

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.520
<v Speaker 1>battery of other games we needed to dissect first. We

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.400
<v Speaker 1>can really just put all of our efforts here.

0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:00.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm ready for this tie and I'm I think is

0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:02.560
<v Speaker 2>ESPN doing the Mega cast? I think they are. They

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 2>did it during the semi finals, so it's an all

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 2>encompassing experience. I have an idea. I don't know if

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 2>you want to hear it now about one more channel,

0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>oh should be added? Well, let's save that for our

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 2>content here. Let's save it for the content. I have

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:17.800
<v Speaker 2>a lot of thoughts about Alabama, Georgia, and I am

0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:21.480
<v Speaker 2>I have gotten more excited than I was earlier on

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 2>in the week.

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's also say this, we understand that as college football goes,

0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:31.039
<v Speaker 1>certainly they moved up National Signing Day this year or

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>created a second National Signing Day season, I should say.

0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>And there's been news going on all around the college

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 1>football ether that we're not going to have ample opportunity

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:46.280
<v Speaker 1>to address on this show. We understand though, that the

0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>National Championship Game is not going on into vacuum. There

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 1>are other things happening. Rich Rod is out at Arizona unexpectedly.

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:59.920
<v Speaker 1>We've got Dave A. Randa getting pretty much the sun, earth, win,

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:03.840
<v Speaker 1>and fire everything you could possibly want in a new

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>contract to remain at LSU as defensive coordinator.

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:09.040
<v Speaker 2>He's the new governor of Louisiana as per my understanding

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.160
<v Speaker 2>of his privileges. Yeah.

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:14.200
<v Speaker 1>On the flip side, you've got Notre Dame refusing to

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 1>go up and meet Mike Elko, therefore meaning he is

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:21.279
<v Speaker 1>leaving to take the same job over at Texas A

0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.560
<v Speaker 1>and m would Jim both Fisher Yes, And then on

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 1>top of all, of it. We've got players declaring for

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:29.239
<v Speaker 1>the NFL Draft in drobes.

0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:33.120
<v Speaker 2>You know, Josh Rosen and Sam Darnold declared. There have

0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:36.480
<v Speaker 2>been a few of them throughout college football. Derwin James

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.239
<v Speaker 2>has declared early, Malik Jefferson I believe they have until

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:43.040
<v Speaker 2>like January nineteenth. There's some big names, ty, this should

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:46.120
<v Speaker 2>be a pretty loaded draft up top Vitavea from Washington,

0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 2>who I believe was the Pac twelve defensive Player of

0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 2>the Year. Eddie Pinero the only good thing about Florida's

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:56.960
<v Speaker 2>offense this year for you know, the kicker obviously, Cameron

0:05:56.960 --> 0:06:01.400
<v Speaker 2>Petway at Auburn and Carrie on Jon also carry On Johnson.

0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that both of those the running backs for Auburn.

0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:07.120
<v Speaker 2>So Sam Hubbard Ohio State had a huge game against

0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:09.799
<v Speaker 2>USC and the Cotton Bowl. So yeah, we'll go through

0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, draft eligibility. And Saquon Barclay's obviously the other

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 2>just an enormous name signing with I think Jay Z's

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 2>yep Rock Nation. There was a picture of the two

0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.000
<v Speaker 2>of them, so very cool. I hope all of these

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.040
<v Speaker 2>guys have long, healthy careers.

0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>We promise at some point we will go into more

0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 1>detail with a lot of this stuff. But today, as

0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:34.400
<v Speaker 1>we said, it's all about the National Championship and if

0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 1>you're looking forward to getting ready for that game with

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 1>us here, if you want to dress up for the occasion,

0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:42.719

<v Speaker 2>black tie optional wedding? Are you wearing a black suit?

0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 2>Are you wearing a darker suit? Or do you own

0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:36.760
<v Speaker 2>or rent TuS? Usually situation I would run even if

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:39.880
<v Speaker 2>it's black tie optional, probably you know rented tucks. Yeah,

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.520
<v Speaker 2>I so. I camera Guy Dave's wedding real quick before

0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 2>we get into Alabama, Georgia. It was black tie optional.

0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I wore a dark suit with a black tie. I

0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:51.960
<v Speaker 2>felt totally fine, but afterwards I thought to myself, maybe

0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 2>it'd be nice to have a tux.

0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, maybe it'd be nice.

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.480
<v Speaker 2>And of course I went to Endochino and they have

0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.520
<v Speaker 2>some sharp, sharp tuxes tie. So I think I'm pulling

0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:02.760
<v Speaker 2>that trigger. I think I'm ready.

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:06.959
<v Speaker 1>All right, that's how you know you're a man. Dan.

0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's get into it, all right, Dan, Daniel, there is

0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 1>one more pick left to be made. One on the table.

0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:23.480
<v Speaker 1>It's just out there. It's glittering, gleaming, screaming to be picked.

0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>As I said earlier, the College Football Playoff National Championship

0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Game presented by AT and T. They play it in

0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta at Mercedes Benz Stadium, a stadium which honestly looks

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:37.040
<v Speaker 1>like it landed here from Mars.

0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.960
<v Speaker 2>Have you seen this thing? I have seen the stadium

0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 2>and the most appealing thing to me about it because

0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:45.080
<v Speaker 2>it looks like a very very nice place to watch

0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:47.960
<v Speaker 2>a football game. They apparently the food there is not

0:09:48.040 --> 0:09:50.559
<v Speaker 2>only reasonably priced, like you get a sandwich for five

0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:53.720
<v Speaker 2>bucks or something like that, but it's all local, known

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.280
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta institutions that are the vendors, which I think is

0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 2>pretty rad. So if you're going to the game, I'm

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:02.960
<v Speaker 2>happy for you. You should be eating well, good for you.

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>If the outer shell of this stadium that I'm looking

0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:09.679
<v Speaker 1>at here on my computer. If the outer shell of it,

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:13.720
<v Speaker 1>instead of being the silver like it is, if it

0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:17.120
<v Speaker 1>were a translucent shade of pink or red, it would

0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>bear striking resemblance to the thing that covered up the

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.000
<v Speaker 1>museum in Ghostbusters two. Oh.

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I thought you were going somewhere else with that, because

0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 2>we've sort of alluded to it looking like a robot's

0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:27.400
<v Speaker 2>b hole.

0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, no, no, not going there.

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Because when you started saying if it were pink, I

0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:34.440
<v Speaker 2>was like, Tie, mynd God, now you're broadcasting blue tonight.

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:39.800
<v Speaker 2>Now I love New Tie twenty eighteen. Tie coming at you, okay.

0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Monday, January eighth, eight pm on ESPN. A bunch of

0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:49.520
<v Speaker 1>other streams which maybe we can look up before we

0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.240
<v Speaker 1>bid fond to do here. It is Alabama at twelve

0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:56.839
<v Speaker 1>and one overall, seven to one in the SEC. They

0:10:56.840 --> 0:11:00.880
<v Speaker 1>are a three and a half point favorite over the

0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:04.959
<v Speaker 1>SEC champion Georgia Bulldogs. They come into this game at

0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:10.240
<v Speaker 1>thirteen and one and also seven and one in the SEC.

0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Before we get into the actual conversation, here are some

0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.640
<v Speaker 1>baseline numbers from Bill Connolly's SMP plus. I'm ready keep

0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 1>this in mind, folks. The S and P plus is

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:25.440
<v Speaker 1>an efficiency metric. It's based a tool. It's a tool.

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:29.280
<v Speaker 1>It's based on per play data. It doesn't tell you everything,

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Like most of these things, it's a guide. Right. Here

0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>are the relevant factoids. Alabama overall SMP they are second,

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Ohio State was first, offensive SMP plus ranking twenty second,

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:52.200
<v Speaker 1>defensive first. Georgia overall third, offensive eleventh, defensive eleventh. The

0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.640
<v Speaker 1>one striking difference between the two is that Georgia's got

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:58.800
<v Speaker 1>a much better special teams unit. All that being said,

0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 1>the system per jectx Alabama to win by two point

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:07.040
<v Speaker 1>three points stan, so they're barely not covering, barely not covering. Okay,

0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.760
<v Speaker 1>how do you feel about this game? So?

0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:16.200
<v Speaker 2>I am relatively confident that Georgia has a pretty good chance.

0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:19.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't know is that quantifying qualifying enough? Sure? No?

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:21.880
<v Speaker 2>I think this game should be close because both of

0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:24.080
<v Speaker 2>these teams are complete. Alabama looks to be a little

0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:26.840
<v Speaker 2>bit deeper, which is to be expected given the years

0:12:26.960 --> 0:12:29.559
<v Speaker 2>jump that they have in recruiting on Kirby Smart. But

0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.040
<v Speaker 2>it's not like Mark Richt and his staff at a

0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:34.959
<v Speaker 2>below average job. There's a ton of familiarity in this game.

0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 2>I know a lot of people are going to look

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 2>at the fact that Kirby was, you know, Nick Saban's

0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:42.200
<v Speaker 2>longtime defensive coordinator, and sort of the push pull of

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.280
<v Speaker 2>the teacher and student kind of thing, which I think

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:48.400
<v Speaker 2>is not the most accurate way of looking at this.

0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:50.440
<v Speaker 2>I just I really think it comes down to quarterbacks,

0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:53.320
<v Speaker 2>and I think it comes down to how aggressive these

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:58.000
<v Speaker 2>offenses are because they have big challenges in these talented defenses.

0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:03.480
<v Speaker 2>So there is an element of to me, especially with Georgia,

0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:05.440
<v Speaker 2>and I know we're going to sort of talk about

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:09.120
<v Speaker 2>all facets. How much do they view this as we

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:13.840
<v Speaker 2>need to throw everything we possibly can in every possible scenario,

0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.480
<v Speaker 2>in every possible phase, but mostly offense and special teams

0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:19.959
<v Speaker 2>because they should be most confident in their defense. How

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.080
<v Speaker 2>much are they willing to play like that from the

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:25.480
<v Speaker 2>opening kickoff? And if they are, I think they've got

0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 2>an excellent chance to put themselves in position to win

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:33.880
<v Speaker 2>the game late. If they don't, I think we could

0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 2>get a very boring even if the score is relatively close,

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:38.959
<v Speaker 2>Even if it ends up like I don't know, twenty

0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:42.079
<v Speaker 2>seven to seventeen or something like that. I think that

0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.800
<v Speaker 2>throws a lot into doubt. If Georgia says we are

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:47.640
<v Speaker 2>just going to do and play how we always play,

0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 2>that is to me the big picture. That is the

0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:53.920
<v Speaker 2>thought that I have had repeatedly when thinking about this matchup.

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I want to get back to the thing you said

0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:58.040
<v Speaker 1>about this being about quarterbacks in a moment.

0:13:58.080 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Sure.

0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:01.839
<v Speaker 1>The other important note which needs to be mentioned these

0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:05.559
<v Speaker 1>teams didn't play in the regular season. They are in

0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 1>the same conference, they do have some common opponents, and

0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.320
<v Speaker 1>in this case they actually share the same loss. Both

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>of them lost to Auburn. Alabama, as you know, lost

0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:18.080
<v Speaker 1>to Auburn in the Iron Bowl twenty six to fourteen

0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>last week the regular season. Georgia lost forty to seventeen.

0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.880
<v Speaker 1>Back in the second week of November. Had Georgia been

0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:30.600
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more careful on special teams, you know,

0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:34.280
<v Speaker 1>it's probably a closer loss. But that's water under the

0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:37.360
<v Speaker 1>bridge now forty to seventeen. They obviously bounce back and

0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>won over Auburn in the SEC Championship game, So perhaps

0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:43.760
<v Speaker 1>some of what we saw Auburn do can be a

0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:47.760
<v Speaker 1>little bit instructive on both sides, the Alabama side as

0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 1>well as the Georgia side. Let's get back to the

0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.880
<v Speaker 1>quarterback point though, Why do you feel this comes down

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:54.000
<v Speaker 1>to quarterback play.

0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 2>So downfield throwing. I like Jake from a little bit

0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:00.360
<v Speaker 2>more than Jalen Hurts, which is sort of strange to say,

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:04.160
<v Speaker 2>because Jalen Hurts has aggressively been in this position before.

0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:06.400
<v Speaker 2>This is his second year in a row, after a

0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:09.480
<v Speaker 2>true freshman year, going to the National Championship and acquitting

0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:11.760
<v Speaker 2>himself well in the National Championship game. He wasn't great

0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.120
<v Speaker 2>against Washington, but he made plays. He put Alabama in

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:15.880
<v Speaker 2>a position to win at the end of the game

0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:18.280
<v Speaker 2>against clumbs and last year, and the defense just couldn't

0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:21.720
<v Speaker 2>hold on against an excellent quarterback in Deshaun Watson. He

0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:24.000
<v Speaker 2>has I mean, he did not throw the ball downfield

0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:27.640
<v Speaker 2>all that well against an excellent Clemson defense. He struggled

0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 2>against Auburn. You saw the sort of drives coming to

0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:33.880
<v Speaker 2>a halt in the red zone or green zone or

0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:36.440
<v Speaker 2>whatever the case when you were in opponent territory. That

0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:40.280
<v Speaker 2>I just have questions because throughout the year, even close

0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:43.800
<v Speaker 2>wins against a techs, A and M or Mississippi State,

0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:48.560
<v Speaker 2>in close wins, it has been difficult at times for

0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:52.040
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Hurts, when put into an obvious passing situation third

0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:54.480
<v Speaker 2>and eight, third and eleven, third and six, whatever the case,

0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 2>where a defense does a good enough job spying him,

0:15:57.720 --> 0:15:59.480
<v Speaker 2>keeping an extra man in the box so he can't

0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.680
<v Speaker 2>just scramble for that seven and a half yards to

0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:06.120
<v Speaker 2>keep a drive going that when he has to take

0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:10.320
<v Speaker 2>a snap, assess, go through a progression or two step

0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:13.160
<v Speaker 2>into the throw and hit a nine yard out, hit

0:16:13.400 --> 0:16:16.120
<v Speaker 2>an eleven yard pass up the scene, whatever the case is,

0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.640
<v Speaker 2>that he has been a little bit hesitant and he's

0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:22.040
<v Speaker 2>just been a little bit off with his throws. So

0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:25.360
<v Speaker 2>it concerns me if we're looking at this game in

0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 2>a vacuum, although all things told, if we're looking at

0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:32.280
<v Speaker 2>this sort of holistically, Jalen Hurts has more at his

0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:35.240
<v Speaker 2>disposal on both sides of the field to sort of

0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:38.560
<v Speaker 2>make up for any deficiencies he might have in those situations.

0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:40.960
<v Speaker 2>And also Alabama might not put him in those situations.

0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Damien Harris might pick up seven yards of carry and

0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:46.920
<v Speaker 2>he'll only have third and two's or whatever third and threes.

0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:49.920
<v Speaker 2>That's the worry for me about Jalen Hurts. It on

0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 2>the other side, is Jake fromm is the kind of

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:56.000
<v Speaker 2>quarterback that Alabama wants to face, or at least prefers

0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:56.480
<v Speaker 2>to face.

0:16:56.800 --> 0:17:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, exactly, you're kind of getting into my point here.

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Right, and I will I will let you take it

0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:07.320
<v Speaker 2>from here, but sort of broad strokes, Jake from is

0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:10.479
<v Speaker 2>not going to extend plays in the way that And

0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:12.600
<v Speaker 2>it sort of annoys me that people when talking about,

0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:15.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, well, Alabama's got a weakness. They struggle against

0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:21.080
<v Speaker 2>excellent offenses with excellent mobile quarterbacks, like so does everybody,

0:17:21.200 --> 0:17:24.480
<v Speaker 2>so does literally every tame in college football. So that

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:26.240
<v Speaker 2>is that would be the concern. But yes, when you

0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 2>look at the teams that have succeeded against Alabama, it's quarterbacks.

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:31.679
<v Speaker 2>And this is this is sort of an echo of

0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:35.040
<v Speaker 2>everything we've said for a long time. It's the sort

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:38.159
<v Speaker 2>of fearless quality that Johnny Manzel and Deshaun Watson and

0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:41.040
<v Speaker 2>Chad Kelly and even in that game against Trevor Knight,

0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:45.440
<v Speaker 2>that those types of quarterbacks have had with bigger receivers

0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:48.560
<v Speaker 2>to challenge Alabama's physical cornerbacks and to throw the ball

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:52.280
<v Speaker 2>downfield with little to no abandon right. And I'm not

0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:56.760
<v Speaker 2>sure that that fully describes a very good, if not

0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:59.119
<v Speaker 2>great quarterback, and Jake from I don't know if that

0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:01.240
<v Speaker 2>describes his style and game well.

0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:04.800
<v Speaker 1>And that's my point, okay, because this whole thing in

0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:07.160
<v Speaker 1>college for every college football game, comes down the schemes

0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:10.680
<v Speaker 1>and matchups, in particular matchups, and that's where I get

0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.359
<v Speaker 1>hung up. We made this point many moons ago. Let's

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:16.800
<v Speaker 1>take a look at the teams that Alabama has lost

0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to over the last six years, including twenty seventeen. So

0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:22.920
<v Speaker 1>we know about Auburn, we know about Deshan Watson and Clemson.

0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 1>We had Ole missed two years in a row. We

0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.720
<v Speaker 1>had Ohio State in the playoff, we had Auburn and

0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:31.320
<v Speaker 1>the Kick six, we had Oklahoma in the Trevor Night

0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Sugar Bowl Game, and then we had Johnny Manzel back

0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:37.320
<v Speaker 1>in a Texas A and M game in twenty twelve. Yes,

0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:40.960
<v Speaker 1>the common denominator and all those losses is what you said.

0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:45.119
<v Speaker 1>It's a spread offense, it's a mobile quarterback. It's pro

0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:48.800
<v Speaker 1>caliber wide receivers, either of the big and physical variety

0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:53.200
<v Speaker 1>or slightly smaller and more versatile variety, but still very good.

0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:55.200
<v Speaker 2>And I would add tight ends to that as well.

0:18:57.280 --> 0:19:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Those are the kinds of teams that Alabama has long to.

0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Those are the only teams that Alabama has lost to

0:19:03.800 --> 0:19:06.320
<v Speaker 1>over the last six seasons. It does not mean they

0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:11.040
<v Speaker 1>necessarily struggle against those teams. They've played other teams that

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.560
<v Speaker 1>fit that bill, but those are the kinds of teams

0:19:14.560 --> 0:19:18.480
<v Speaker 1>that this Alabama squad under Nick Saban has lost to.

0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:21.560
<v Speaker 1>That's the common denominator. What I get hung up on

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:24.560
<v Speaker 1>is that Georgia is not one of those teams. And

0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:29.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't feel like Georgia can contwart itself enough to

0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:31.360
<v Speaker 1>become one of those teams in time for this game

0:19:31.400 --> 0:19:35.040
<v Speaker 1>on Monday Night. In fact, Georgia is an awful lot

0:19:35.119 --> 0:19:39.480
<v Speaker 1>like Alabama pre Jalen Hurts, pre Blake Simms, Alabama. Call

0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:40.480
<v Speaker 1>it like the mccaren era.

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:41.399
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.320
<v Speaker 1>You need to go back to twenty eleven against LSU

0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:47.119
<v Speaker 1>to find a game that Bama lost to a power

0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:50.880
<v Speaker 1>rushing team. So is all this to say that Georgia

0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:53.119
<v Speaker 1>won't win the game. They can't know, of course, not

0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:57.120
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, it's a razor thin margin. But despite

0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Alabama's staff changes over the years, I still like the

0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:04.480
<v Speaker 1>defensive continuity. Just with having Nick Saban as the coach,

0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:08.520
<v Speaker 1>I have to pick Alabama here, and I don't want

0:20:08.520 --> 0:20:09.919
<v Speaker 1>to put the car before the horse. We got a

0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:11.960
<v Speaker 1>lot more to talk about. But I think it's a

0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:16.600
<v Speaker 1>low scoring game. I think it's defensive minded. I trust

0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Hurts to make a big play when it counts.

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:22.000
<v Speaker 1>I think he's seen more action like this than a

0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:24.920
<v Speaker 1>guy like Jake from who's been very good and has

0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:27.320
<v Speaker 1>not shot himself in the foot at all this season.

0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.080
<v Speaker 1>But I still trust a little bit more in Jalen

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Hurts and the overall depth that I think Alabama brings to.

0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:38.960
<v Speaker 2>Bear interestingly, so to flip it, just because we talked

0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:41.760
<v Speaker 2>about the concerns with quarterbacks and Jake Fromm being you know,

0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:45.280
<v Speaker 2>less experienced than Jalen Hurts, and Jalen Hurts struggling in

0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:48.359
<v Speaker 2>certain situations. You have many interceptions Jalen Hurts through this

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:51.080
<v Speaker 2>year against teams with winning records.

0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:52.320
<v Speaker 1>It's either one or none.

0:20:52.680 --> 0:20:56.400
<v Speaker 2>It's zero. It is zero. And if there is anything

0:20:56.520 --> 0:21:00.240
<v Speaker 2>sort of big picture that helps to define what winning

0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks do, they don't screw up. They do not give

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:07.960
<v Speaker 2>the defense anything. And I think Jake From through three

0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:10.280
<v Speaker 2>he had like fourteen touchdowns to three and a.

0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Bad as a true freshman.

0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:13.440
<v Speaker 2>By the way, that's not bad at all. He led

0:21:13.520 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 2>against winning FBS team, so this is not just winning

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 2>SEC teams. Jake From led the SEC in efficiency ratings, whatever,

0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:25.880
<v Speaker 2>yards per attempt, touchdown passes like he was. I think

0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:28.120
<v Speaker 2>we can sort of get stuck in the like Jake

0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:32.159
<v Speaker 2>From is underrated, jack From is very good. Jake From

0:21:32.240 --> 0:21:35.840
<v Speaker 2>throws with a certain amount of confidence and even mechanics,

0:21:35.840 --> 0:21:38.359
<v Speaker 2>like he steps into his throats, he throws with rhythm.

0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:41.320
<v Speaker 2>He is a quarterback way ahead of his age. He

0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:44.199
<v Speaker 2>throws like a young junior, something like that where he

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:48.359
<v Speaker 2>has seen things when in fact he started because Starter

0:21:48.440 --> 0:21:51.200
<v Speaker 2>got hurt and that started what against Notre Dame right

0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:53.760
<v Speaker 2>in his first game, he goes South Bend against a

0:21:53.840 --> 0:21:59.000
<v Speaker 2>very good defense, sorry about Mike Helco and looks totally

0:21:59.000 --> 0:22:01.120
<v Speaker 2>poised and you know, is not the reason why they

0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:03.600
<v Speaker 2>overall won that game, but he didn't lose that game

0:22:03.640 --> 0:22:07.679
<v Speaker 2>for them. And what he did against not great but

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:11.600
<v Speaker 2>pretty good Oklahoma defense. Then throughout the season Auburn's defense

0:22:11.680 --> 0:22:14.960
<v Speaker 2>twice we've seen what Jake From looks like, struggling and

0:22:15.000 --> 0:22:18.119
<v Speaker 2>helping to cost his team a big game. But aside

0:22:18.119 --> 0:22:21.240
<v Speaker 2>from those moments. Jake fromm has been nothing but just

0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 2>ruthlessly efficient. And it's not screens, ty, it's not slants,

0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:30.399
<v Speaker 2>it's play action downfield. The question now remains, if the

0:22:30.480 --> 0:22:32.960
<v Speaker 2>run is taken away and Jake from does have to

0:22:32.960 --> 0:22:34.639
<v Speaker 2>throw the ball thirty five times, I don't know how

0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:36.439
<v Speaker 2>many times he threw it against it. It might have been

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:40.240
<v Speaker 2>that many against Oklahoma. It appears now twenty nine times.

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:42.240
<v Speaker 2>He didn't crack thirty all year long. So if he

0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:45.800
<v Speaker 2>has to throw thirty plus times, what does that look

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:49.639
<v Speaker 2>like for Georgia, That's to me a pretty significant question.

0:22:50.160 --> 0:22:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm I think I'm most interested in the offensive side

0:22:53.800 --> 0:22:56.720
<v Speaker 1>of the football for both of these teams, primarily because

0:22:56.720 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 1>both defenses are so darn good. There's just not a

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:04.679
<v Speaker 1>lot wiggle room. I'm so impressed with the Georgia story

0:23:04.720 --> 0:23:08.359
<v Speaker 1>this year. Yeah, I mean everyone's heard about Rokwan Smith,

0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and rightfully so, but especially that linebacking corps beyond him.

0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's not forget about Big Lorenzo Carter, a long arm

0:23:18.040 --> 0:23:21.359
<v Speaker 1>of the law at six six, or DeAndre Walker, who

0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:24.239
<v Speaker 1>didn't have as many tackles, but he had just as

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:27.800
<v Speaker 1>many sacks and more tackles for loss. They go pretty

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:31.120
<v Speaker 1>deep in terms of playmakers on defense and their front

0:23:31.119 --> 0:23:35.879
<v Speaker 1>sevens outstanding. They're good against both the run and the pass,

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:39.120
<v Speaker 1>a top ten defense on both fronts, as is Alabama.

0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:44.240
<v Speaker 1>But I just wonder how much can either team change

0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:47.479
<v Speaker 1>what they do normally on offense to really throw a

0:23:47.520 --> 0:23:51.720
<v Speaker 1>curveball at these opposing defenses. With that in mind, I

0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:56.080
<v Speaker 1>think Alabama is probably better equipped with Jalen Hurts, his

0:23:56.160 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 1>mobility and some of the things that he can do

0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:02.119
<v Speaker 1>to mold their offense to create a wrinkle that Georgia

0:24:02.240 --> 0:24:04.560
<v Speaker 1>might not be able to do because they're much more

0:24:04.600 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 1>of a power rushing oriented school.

0:24:06.359 --> 0:24:09.280
<v Speaker 2>Here's a sort of follow up to the thought that

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:11.800
<v Speaker 2>we had been talking about of you know, what have

0:24:11.880 --> 0:24:15.480
<v Speaker 2>teams done successfully against this, you know, vaunted Alabama defense

0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:18.560
<v Speaker 2>and something those teams have in common aside from the

0:24:18.600 --> 0:24:21.719
<v Speaker 2>sort of stylistic play of quarterbacks. And I'm sure Alabama

0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:25.439
<v Speaker 2>is thrilled not to play Baker Mayfield. Sure it's teams

0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:29.120
<v Speaker 2>can't run against Alabama. Even teams that beat Alabama can't

0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:31.720
<v Speaker 2>run against Alabama. They have not given up i think

0:24:31.760 --> 0:24:34.879
<v Speaker 2>five yards of carry even four yards of carry since

0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:37.000
<v Speaker 2>and this is over a couple of years ago now,

0:24:37.040 --> 0:24:40.600
<v Speaker 2>that Georgia game from twenty fifteen, which if you'll remember,

0:24:41.040 --> 0:24:44.040
<v Speaker 2>it was something like thirty five to three, and I

0:24:44.040 --> 0:24:46.120
<v Speaker 2>think it was Nick Chubb who ripped off like an

0:24:46.119 --> 0:24:49.080
<v Speaker 2>eighty yard run. So that sort of skews it a

0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:52.400
<v Speaker 2>little bit. So teams that do beat or hang with

0:24:52.440 --> 0:24:56.439
<v Speaker 2>Alabama typically have to do it in all phases. But

0:24:56.480 --> 0:24:59.120
<v Speaker 2>there's something else that that sort of can be done

0:24:59.240 --> 0:25:02.240
<v Speaker 2>that Georgia has not done, and teams that have hung

0:25:02.280 --> 0:25:04.840
<v Speaker 2>with or beat in Alabama have done. And it's if

0:25:04.880 --> 0:25:07.920
<v Speaker 2>you can't get offense going with any sort of rhythm

0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:10.240
<v Speaker 2>or any sort of consistency, there is there is a

0:25:10.400 --> 0:25:14.320
<v Speaker 2>very specific wrinkle. And those offenses played with a little

0:25:14.320 --> 0:25:16.800
<v Speaker 2>bit of pace, they played with a little bit of tempo.

0:25:17.359 --> 0:25:20.840
<v Speaker 2>And even you know, Mississippi State this season, even Auburn

0:25:20.880 --> 0:25:23.080
<v Speaker 2>this season, these weren't super fast teams, but they were

0:25:23.080 --> 0:25:26.160
<v Speaker 2>top forty, top fifty in terms of plays per second

0:25:26.200 --> 0:25:28.600
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, you know, whatever the tempo metric you want

0:25:28.640 --> 0:25:31.119
<v Speaker 2>to use. Georgia is something like one hundred and tenth.

0:25:31.680 --> 0:25:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Georgia is very deliberate with how they play. Hard to

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:38.159
<v Speaker 2>fault them the results have you know, they speak to themselves. Yeah,

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:41.800
<v Speaker 2>but if they're not able to sort of get loose

0:25:41.840 --> 0:25:44.760
<v Speaker 2>for six yards here, eight yards here, four yards here

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:48.960
<v Speaker 2>with Sony Michelle or Nick Chobb or Deandres whoever, I

0:25:48.960 --> 0:25:51.240
<v Speaker 2>don't know if that's a gear they have to sort

0:25:51.240 --> 0:25:53.240
<v Speaker 2>of wrinkle things up. But maybe they do. Maybe they do,

0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they did it.

0:25:54.080 --> 0:25:57.080
<v Speaker 1>Look again, George has been an awesome story on so

0:25:57.119 --> 0:26:01.440
<v Speaker 1>many fronts. Kirby Smart rewire this team in two seasons,

0:26:01.520 --> 0:26:05.040
<v Speaker 1>catching everybody by surprise. Hell, the way he rewired this

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:08.680
<v Speaker 1>team after Jacob Eeson got hurt in Week one that

0:26:08.800 --> 0:26:11.639
<v Speaker 1>caught a lot of people by surprise. The defense has

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:14.320
<v Speaker 1>been so good outside of the first half, and maybe

0:26:14.320 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 1>the Rose Bull and a few bumps along the way.

0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:17.960
<v Speaker 2>As a whole.

0:26:18.960 --> 0:26:22.480
<v Speaker 1>The way this team played within itself and to its

0:26:22.520 --> 0:26:25.639
<v Speaker 1>strengths all year is one impressed me the most because

0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:27.920
<v Speaker 1>they knew every step of the way exactly who they were,

0:26:28.680 --> 0:26:30.560
<v Speaker 1>and there's a lot of value in having a good,

0:26:30.600 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 1>strong identity. What I wonder now is they go into

0:26:33.840 --> 0:26:37.400
<v Speaker 1>this game not just about the wrinkles and can they

0:26:37.440 --> 0:26:41.320
<v Speaker 1>produce them to throw Alabama off its defensive game, but

0:26:41.400 --> 0:26:44.160
<v Speaker 1>if they do try to stay within themselves and try

0:26:44.160 --> 0:26:46.800
<v Speaker 1>to beat it right up the middle, try to pound

0:26:46.840 --> 0:26:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Alabama up front, try to wear them down the way

0:26:49.440 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 1>they've worn down so many other opponents. Is that something

0:26:52.560 --> 0:26:55.440
<v Speaker 1>they can do now? We know about some of Alabama's

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:58.440
<v Speaker 1>deficiencies at linebacker, but they've gotten some of those guys back,

0:26:59.119 --> 0:27:01.400
<v Speaker 1>and you know how it is when guys go down

0:27:01.440 --> 0:27:05.640
<v Speaker 1>with injury, other guys step in you sort of inadvertently

0:27:05.680 --> 0:27:09.679
<v Speaker 1>build depth. Right. Sure, Alabama has been very strong against

0:27:09.720 --> 0:27:13.240
<v Speaker 1>the run the entire way and really the entire tenure

0:27:13.280 --> 0:27:16.359
<v Speaker 1>of Nick Saban. Is this a squad that's going to

0:27:16.400 --> 0:27:20.480
<v Speaker 1>wear down over time if Georgia tries to come at

0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:22.920
<v Speaker 1>them with Sony Michelle and Nick Chubb.

0:27:23.040 --> 0:27:27.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean they're down a linebacker Anthony Jennings, who who

0:27:27.760 --> 0:27:29.800
<v Speaker 2>is you know? I think just went under the knife.

0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:32.480
<v Speaker 2>He played really well against Clemson but hurt himself. So

0:27:33.000 --> 0:27:36.120
<v Speaker 2>they are not thin. But you know, no Sean Dion Hamilton,

0:27:36.240 --> 0:27:38.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're not where they'd like to be health

0:27:38.320 --> 0:27:40.639
<v Speaker 2>wise at a couple of key positions up front.

0:27:41.600 --> 0:27:44.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, I just feel like they've they've been

0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:48.359
<v Speaker 1>in this situation before. Yeah, you know, a power rushing

0:27:48.400 --> 0:27:53.920
<v Speaker 1>team against Alabama is generally tough sledding, and I think that,

0:27:54.040 --> 0:27:56.600
<v Speaker 1>above all else is part of why I feel so

0:27:56.720 --> 0:27:58.280
<v Speaker 1>confident in going with Alabama.

0:27:58.840 --> 0:28:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Now, recent results against the more quote like power you know,

0:28:04.000 --> 0:28:08.080
<v Speaker 2>under center just hat on hat offenses have been good,

0:28:08.119 --> 0:28:11.840
<v Speaker 2>but not excellent, And certainly George is as talented, if

0:28:11.880 --> 0:28:13.600
<v Speaker 2>not more talented, than some of the teams that have

0:28:13.640 --> 0:28:17.440
<v Speaker 2>succeeded against Alabama. Now, Mississippi State does not run under center,

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:20.919
<v Speaker 2>but they go straight at teams, you know, between tackles whatever,

0:28:21.000 --> 0:28:24.000
<v Speaker 2>with Nick Fitzgerald, Aris Williams both you know, finding success

0:28:24.000 --> 0:28:26.360
<v Speaker 2>at times against Alabama. And you know, a few years

0:28:26.400 --> 0:28:30.639
<v Speaker 2>ago Arkansas, when they were more running power stuff than

0:28:30.640 --> 0:28:33.840
<v Speaker 2>they were, more wide open stuff through the air, they

0:28:33.920 --> 0:28:37.359
<v Speaker 2>had success against Alabama and LSU, and they got shut

0:28:37.359 --> 0:28:40.520
<v Speaker 2>out last year, but it was still they allowed ten points,

0:28:41.120 --> 0:28:45.480
<v Speaker 2>and only allowing ten points is certainly a huge, huge win.

0:28:45.920 --> 0:28:48.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it's easy to argue that George's offense this

0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:51.360
<v Speaker 2>year is ahead of where LSU's offense was last year,

0:28:51.800 --> 0:28:57.520
<v Speaker 2>So I don't think it's a prohibitive issue. I just

0:28:57.600 --> 0:29:01.720
<v Speaker 2>think the margin for air is so slim, and it's

0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:04.560
<v Speaker 2>going to be fun to see because even against Oklahoma,

0:29:04.640 --> 0:29:07.320
<v Speaker 2>the holes that Sony Michelle and Nick chub are running through.

0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Those aren't accidents. That's good scot sound scheming. That's misdirecting.

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:15.000
<v Speaker 2>They do a good job sort of dressing things up

0:29:15.040 --> 0:29:18.440
<v Speaker 2>a bit. But man, Alabama's tough to fool.

0:29:19.000 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 1>They are.

0:29:19.400 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Man, are they tough?

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:24.520
<v Speaker 1>They are. Let's talk about the Alabama offense. Now, sure

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 1>we focused a lot on what Georgia Canner can't do

0:29:27.480 --> 0:29:30.920
<v Speaker 1>to confuse Alabama. But here's part of the reason why

0:29:30.960 --> 0:29:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I think I trust a little bit more and Jalen

0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Hurts in Alabama. Okay, now we know that they've got

0:29:37.280 --> 0:29:41.760
<v Speaker 1>this multi headed monster upfront. I mean they've been very

0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:45.640
<v Speaker 1>I guess generous in terms of who they've given the

0:29:45.640 --> 0:29:49.520
<v Speaker 1>ball to. Just in a rushing attack. Right, Damian Harris

0:29:49.600 --> 0:29:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Bo Garborough were the two main running backs who featured

0:29:53.400 --> 0:29:56.320
<v Speaker 1>in this running game. Jalen Hurts also had nearly as

0:29:56.320 --> 0:29:59.880
<v Speaker 1>many carries as both of them, actually more than both Garborough,

0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:02.479
<v Speaker 1>so they can come at you a couple different ways

0:30:03.080 --> 0:30:06.640
<v Speaker 1>in that rushing game. They also have Calvin Ridley out wide,

0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:12.280
<v Speaker 1>who overwhelmingly had the most targets on the roster, had

0:30:12.320 --> 0:30:15.360
<v Speaker 1>five tires, almost six times as many catches as the

0:30:15.360 --> 0:30:20.320
<v Speaker 1>next closest guy. My question to you is knowing that

0:30:21.480 --> 0:30:23.640
<v Speaker 1>if Georgia goes out and says, all right, we're gonna

0:30:23.840 --> 0:30:26.960
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna take away Calvin Ridley kind of like they

0:30:26.960 --> 0:30:30.320
<v Speaker 1>took away you know, the running game for Oklahoma last week.

0:30:30.320 --> 0:30:31.600
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna take away Calvin Ridley.

0:30:32.160 --> 0:30:34.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, in the second half. We should add Ron Anderson

0:30:35.040 --> 0:30:36.320
<v Speaker 2>ran crazy in the first half.

0:30:36.360 --> 0:30:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Correct, That is correct. We're gonna take away Calvin Ridley,

0:30:40.400 --> 0:30:43.400
<v Speaker 1>and we are going to devote all of our other

0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:47.800
<v Speaker 1>resources to stopping Damien Harris to stop being Bo Scarborough.

0:30:48.680 --> 0:30:53.120
<v Speaker 1>That still leaves a guy unaccounted for and Jalen Hurts. Yeah,

0:30:53.280 --> 0:30:56.239
<v Speaker 1>is that a winning stratt? What is the strategy if

0:30:56.280 --> 0:30:57.520
<v Speaker 1>you're the Georgia defense here.

0:30:58.480 --> 0:31:01.320
<v Speaker 2>I assume that they're going to have to spy Jalen

0:31:01.400 --> 0:31:05.560
<v Speaker 2>Hurts constantly and sort of play him laterally better than

0:31:05.640 --> 0:31:08.760
<v Speaker 2>most teams can because they can't. Their linebacking corps is, arguably,

0:31:09.400 --> 0:31:12.600
<v Speaker 2>when healthy and healthier than Alabama's right now, the best

0:31:12.600 --> 0:31:13.040
<v Speaker 2>in the nation.

0:31:13.160 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely.

0:31:14.400 --> 0:31:17.880
<v Speaker 2>So the thought is they are going to force him

0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:20.960
<v Speaker 2>to play a more traditional take the ball, scan the

0:31:20.960 --> 0:31:25.320
<v Speaker 2>field and make a throw. And so it's honestly, it's

0:31:25.360 --> 0:31:28.120
<v Speaker 2>winning first and second down and forcing those. Third and

0:31:28.120 --> 0:31:31.320
<v Speaker 2>six is third and sevens where Jalen Hurts has to

0:31:31.320 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 2>think he has to take a beat and beyond. I mean,

0:31:35.040 --> 0:31:37.280
<v Speaker 2>that's obviously easier said than done. He's got a very

0:31:37.320 --> 0:31:39.440
<v Speaker 2>good offensive line in front of him. They can do

0:31:39.480 --> 0:31:42.080
<v Speaker 2>stuff in the screen game to confuse and to sort

0:31:42.120 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 2>of keep George's defense off balance. But it's a basic question,

0:31:47.400 --> 0:31:50.960
<v Speaker 2>and the execution is a little bit more complex. But yeah,

0:31:51.040 --> 0:31:55.040
<v Speaker 2>it is force Alabama into as many passing downs as possible.

0:31:55.120 --> 0:31:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, we'll see, I think with all that being said,

0:31:58.360 --> 0:32:05.000
<v Speaker 1>then the things that we are watching collectively with Alabama's offense,

0:32:05.040 --> 0:32:08.240
<v Speaker 1>we're watching to see how they do on first and

0:32:08.320 --> 0:32:10.920
<v Speaker 1>second downs. Yes, are they able to get the ball

0:32:10.920 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 1>out to Calvin Ridley? What kind of success does Jalen

0:32:13.760 --> 0:32:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Hurts have either as a passer or a runner or both.

0:32:17.160 --> 0:32:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Where is he focusing more of his efforts? And then

0:32:21.000 --> 0:32:24.000
<v Speaker 1>on the Georgia side, what kind of wrinkles, if any

0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:27.840
<v Speaker 1>can they introduce? What kind of curveball can they throw

0:32:28.360 --> 0:32:31.040
<v Speaker 1>at a very good Alabama defense? Can they wear that

0:32:31.120 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Alabama defense down over the course of sixty minutes?

0:32:34.480 --> 0:32:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Another question I think worth asking as it relates to

0:32:37.360 --> 0:32:40.520
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Hurts, is if he comes out and they go

0:32:41.040 --> 0:32:44.480
<v Speaker 2>three and out three of the first four drives into

0:32:44.520 --> 0:32:48.880
<v Speaker 2>the second quarter, do we see Tua. There were reports

0:32:48.920 --> 0:32:51.600
<v Speaker 2>before the Clemson game, and I'm positive Alabama took this

0:32:51.680 --> 0:32:53.880
<v Speaker 2>Clemson team very very seriously, that it would be a

0:32:53.920 --> 0:32:56.920
<v Speaker 2>tight game. The whole way through. There were reports that

0:32:57.520 --> 0:33:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Toa was going to see time on the field. I

0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:03.720
<v Speaker 2>don't believe he ended up seeing time, But if there

0:33:03.720 --> 0:33:06.440
<v Speaker 2>are reports for Clemson, I would imagine it won't be

0:33:06.440 --> 0:33:10.080
<v Speaker 2>all that different against Georgia that they anticipate having the

0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:13.120
<v Speaker 2>need at some point to show a different look to

0:33:13.160 --> 0:33:15.720
<v Speaker 2>the Georgia defense, which to I think offers a little

0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:20.480
<v Speaker 2>bit more unpredictable. I would say, sure, And I wonder

0:33:21.320 --> 0:33:24.800
<v Speaker 2>how quick you know, Brian Dable and Nick Saban are

0:33:24.880 --> 0:33:28.360
<v Speaker 2>to say Jalen Hurts has not found a rhythm against

0:33:28.400 --> 0:33:31.160
<v Speaker 2>a tough defense. Let's see what the lefty does.

0:33:31.600 --> 0:33:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, I wonder, and that's assuming that he doesn't find

0:33:33.960 --> 0:33:34.360
<v Speaker 1>the rhythm.

0:33:34.400 --> 0:33:37.920
<v Speaker 2>But sure, yeah, that is assuming, and that is you know,

0:33:37.960 --> 0:33:40.440
<v Speaker 2>he came in games during the season at all sorts

0:33:40.480 --> 0:33:42.560
<v Speaker 2>of random points. A lot of the times Alabama was

0:33:42.560 --> 0:33:44.680
<v Speaker 2>already putting teams away, but he was still coming in

0:33:44.680 --> 0:33:47.440
<v Speaker 2>in the second quarter or something like that. So on

0:33:47.560 --> 0:33:50.080
<v Speaker 2>a stage this big, and obviously they trusted Jalen Hurts

0:33:50.160 --> 0:33:51.760
<v Speaker 2>last year as a true freshman, So I don't think

0:33:51.800 --> 0:33:54.480
<v Speaker 2>that can be a legitimate question if Nick Saban's willing

0:33:54.480 --> 0:33:55.920
<v Speaker 2>to play a true freshman. But I guess a true

0:33:55.920 --> 0:34:00.520
<v Speaker 2>freshman backup is a little bit different. So, man, that

0:34:00.560 --> 0:34:04.200
<v Speaker 2>would be something if middle of the second quarter Alabama's

0:34:04.280 --> 0:34:07.400
<v Speaker 2>up three to nothing, if they're just like, well, let's

0:34:07.440 --> 0:34:09.719
<v Speaker 2>see if we can throw something different at them.

0:34:09.960 --> 0:34:13.160
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting to watch, another interesting thing to watch, and

0:34:13.239 --> 0:34:15.000
<v Speaker 1>sort of a minor hedge that I just want to

0:34:15.040 --> 0:34:17.600
<v Speaker 1>get on the record here please, So my final score

0:34:17.640 --> 0:34:20.879
<v Speaker 1>prediction is twenty one to seventeen Alabama. Okay, I think

0:34:20.880 --> 0:34:24.160
<v Speaker 1>a low scoring game. I think under the total of

0:34:24.320 --> 0:34:27.080
<v Speaker 1>forty five. I guess what's said thirty eight points. I'm

0:34:27.120 --> 0:34:30.479
<v Speaker 1>going with somewhere in the neighborhood. But in a game

0:34:30.640 --> 0:34:34.920
<v Speaker 1>like this, where that margin is so razor thin and

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:38.080
<v Speaker 1>where defense really does carry the water on both sides

0:34:38.920 --> 0:34:41.520
<v Speaker 1>of the game, it needs to be said how good

0:34:41.560 --> 0:34:43.719
<v Speaker 1>Georgia is on special teams I.

0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:45.799
<v Speaker 2>Was going to go right there. Continue Exhibit A.

0:34:46.080 --> 0:34:48.680
<v Speaker 1>They blocked a kick last week in overtime against Oklahoma.

0:34:48.840 --> 0:34:50.600
<v Speaker 1>They might not win that game if they don't block

0:34:50.600 --> 0:34:53.120
<v Speaker 1>the kick. Who knows, right, But they blocked a big kick.

0:34:53.600 --> 0:34:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Next play, they get a big run from Sony Michelle,

0:34:55.520 --> 0:34:59.719
<v Speaker 1>they win the game. Exhibit B would be Rodrigo Blankenship

0:35:00.760 --> 0:35:03.640
<v Speaker 1>and he's got the goofy mustache and maybe a fake name.

0:35:03.680 --> 0:35:06.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, okay, but he hit all sixty one

0:35:06.640 --> 0:35:09.560
<v Speaker 1>extra points this year. He kicked a fifty five yarder

0:35:10.440 --> 0:35:12.880
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the first half last week against Oklahoma.

0:35:13.160 --> 0:35:15.840
<v Speaker 1>That's a weapon in a defensive game like this. If

0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:19.080
<v Speaker 1>you've got range out to fifty five, that's a damn weapon.

0:35:19.920 --> 0:35:23.200
<v Speaker 1>And then I'd say Exhibit CE is George's punter whose

0:35:23.280 --> 0:35:25.400
<v Speaker 1>last name I'm not even gonna try. I can't say it,

0:35:25.960 --> 0:35:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Nazilek Sure, I'm gonna take your word for it, Dan.

0:35:29.440 --> 0:35:32.920
<v Speaker 1>He has pinned teams inside their own twenty Yeah, nearly

0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:36.680
<v Speaker 1>forty percent of his punts. And that's not sexy, and

0:35:36.719 --> 0:35:38.080
<v Speaker 1>that's not something you're gonna see in a lot of

0:35:38.080 --> 0:35:42.480
<v Speaker 1>scouting reports. But field position in a close, defensive minded

0:35:42.520 --> 0:35:46.360
<v Speaker 1>game can sometimes mean everything you talk about how you

0:35:46.400 --> 0:35:48.400
<v Speaker 1>doing on first and second downs. He's staying ahead of

0:35:48.440 --> 0:35:51.759
<v Speaker 1>the chains. If you can't flip the field in a

0:35:51.800 --> 0:35:54.279
<v Speaker 1>game like this, more often than not, you're gonna lose.

0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Georgia has a lot going for it on that special

0:35:56.800 --> 0:35:59.719
<v Speaker 1>team side of the equation that we at least need

0:35:59.719 --> 0:36:01.360
<v Speaker 1>to make here if we want to be honest.

0:36:01.520 --> 0:36:04.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think Georgia has the nugget the wrinkle advantage.

0:36:04.560 --> 0:36:06.719
<v Speaker 2>I think you know little thing. You know. They're incredible

0:36:06.719 --> 0:36:09.200
<v Speaker 2>on third down. You know, against SEC teams, they were

0:36:09.200 --> 0:36:11.600
<v Speaker 2>the best team in the conference converting third downs. I

0:36:11.640 --> 0:36:14.280
<v Speaker 2>think there was something like forty or in the forties percent.

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:17.000
<v Speaker 2>They were nearly doing it once out of every two tries.

0:36:17.080 --> 0:36:20.160
<v Speaker 2>So I think the point about special teams is correct,

0:36:20.280 --> 0:36:22.440
<v Speaker 2>especially if we're looking at this game as having a

0:36:22.560 --> 0:36:25.200
<v Speaker 2>razor thin margin. Because of the familiarity, it'll be tough

0:36:25.239 --> 0:36:27.799
<v Speaker 2>to really get one over on each other. And by

0:36:27.840 --> 0:36:30.600
<v Speaker 2>the way, Georgia's punter is a grad transfer. Do you

0:36:30.600 --> 0:36:33.160
<v Speaker 2>remember where he remember seeing where he transferred from?

0:36:33.280 --> 0:36:33.799
<v Speaker 1>No, I don't.

0:36:34.280 --> 0:36:37.080
<v Speaker 2>That'd be the Columbia Lions. In all the football's one

0:36:37.200 --> 0:36:42.400
<v Speaker 2>true city city, New York. So Georgia relying on that

0:36:42.800 --> 0:36:49.400
<v Speaker 2>that northern college football flavor really is going under noticed. Yeah,

0:36:49.640 --> 0:36:52.520
<v Speaker 2>I think you're totally right. I give the advantage on

0:36:52.560 --> 0:36:54.920
<v Speaker 2>the defensive line to Alabama. I give the advantage to

0:36:54.960 --> 0:36:58.400
<v Speaker 2>linebackers barely because I think Russia Rashaan Evans is incredible.

0:36:58.640 --> 0:37:02.480
<v Speaker 2>But to Georgia the secondary because of Mika Fitzpatrick, probably

0:37:02.520 --> 0:37:05.560
<v Speaker 2>to Alabama. The offensive line to me is almost a

0:37:05.600 --> 0:37:08.040
<v Speaker 2>toss up. But you know, I really like both of these,

0:37:08.280 --> 0:37:11.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, running backs. I probably slightly give to Georgia

0:37:11.920 --> 0:37:16.720
<v Speaker 2>because I love the home run ability of Sony Michelle

0:37:16.760 --> 0:37:20.280
<v Speaker 2>and DeAndre Swift. Receivers. I think probably goes to Alabama,

0:37:20.320 --> 0:37:22.239
<v Speaker 2>but I don't love either. You know, Terry Godwin's great

0:37:22.239 --> 0:37:24.960
<v Speaker 2>and Cam Ridley's great, but they neither one of these.

0:37:24.960 --> 0:37:27.440
<v Speaker 2>And you know, Alabama has Jerry Judy, a five star freshmen.

0:37:27.960 --> 0:37:32.319
<v Speaker 2>It's probably Alabama. But there isn't a lot of decisive

0:37:32.400 --> 0:37:34.680
<v Speaker 2>leans for me when you talk about position groups. But

0:37:34.840 --> 0:37:38.200
<v Speaker 2>the special teams thing is big, and we're already forgetting that. JK.

0:37:38.320 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 2>Scott is an incredible punter as well. Yep, And so

0:37:42.440 --> 0:37:47.320
<v Speaker 2>it's uh, it's close, man. You have what twenty one seventeen.

0:37:47.440 --> 0:37:50.799
<v Speaker 1>I am gonna go my official prediction, I'm gonna go

0:37:50.840 --> 0:37:55.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty one seventeen. Yeah, Alabama. I trust more in an

0:37:55.960 --> 0:37:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Alabama's defense to stop Georgia's offense, and I do trust

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Hurst to make a big play even if everything

0:38:03.200 --> 0:38:06.600
<v Speaker 1>else breaks down, whether it's him, whether it's Tua. I

0:38:06.600 --> 0:38:11.080
<v Speaker 1>think the Alabama quarterback position is where they have enough

0:38:11.239 --> 0:38:15.680
<v Speaker 1>room to add a wrinkle to make this game more

0:38:15.680 --> 0:38:17.120
<v Speaker 1>confusing for the Georgia defense.

0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:21.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think I'm going to go with and it's

0:38:21.280 --> 0:38:24.839
<v Speaker 2>actually quite tough for me to see Alabama putting up

0:38:24.880 --> 0:38:28.440
<v Speaker 2>more than twenty to twenty four points just because of

0:38:28.440 --> 0:38:30.760
<v Speaker 2>what we saw from this offense last week against Clemson.

0:38:30.920 --> 0:38:34.200
<v Speaker 2>A'llbe a very different style defense they're playing against Georgia,

0:38:34.600 --> 0:38:37.879
<v Speaker 2>and we've seen Georgia completely lay an egg, whereas I don't.

0:38:38.080 --> 0:38:40.160
<v Speaker 2>We've seen sort of an egg from Alabama, but I

0:38:40.200 --> 0:38:43.120
<v Speaker 2>think less so than Georgia did against Auburn. I have

0:38:43.239 --> 0:38:45.719
<v Speaker 2>this as Alabama twenty four to fourteen.

0:38:46.320 --> 0:38:46.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:38:46.640 --> 0:38:48.320
<v Speaker 2>I think they're going to get a defensive or special

0:38:48.400 --> 0:38:52.359
<v Speaker 2>teams touchdown, and I think it's going to be a

0:38:52.760 --> 0:38:56.920
<v Speaker 2>frustrating day for Jake from I really I think they

0:38:57.000 --> 0:38:59.759
<v Speaker 2>start out well. I think things are scripted well early on,

0:39:00.040 --> 0:39:02.640
<v Speaker 2>but I think Alabama sort of solves that puzzle coming

0:39:02.719 --> 0:39:06.600
<v Speaker 2>up into halftime, and twenty four to fourteen feels about

0:39:06.680 --> 0:39:07.200
<v Speaker 2>right for me.

0:39:08.080 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 1>So we're going double Alabama here.

0:39:10.160 --> 0:39:12.840
<v Speaker 2>Double Alabama, and I guess you have them barely covering.

0:39:12.880 --> 0:39:16.080
<v Speaker 2>I have them a little bit more comfortably covering. Yeah,

0:39:16.400 --> 0:39:20.279
<v Speaker 2>it's so tough when Alabama feels like they're starting on

0:39:20.320 --> 0:39:22.719
<v Speaker 2>second base with that defense, and I know George's defense

0:39:22.760 --> 0:39:26.120
<v Speaker 2>is incredible, Alabama's defense is even a rung above that.

0:39:26.480 --> 0:39:29.160
<v Speaker 2>And so I hope I'm wrong, and it's a much

0:39:29.160 --> 0:39:30.719
<v Speaker 2>closer game and it's sort of a toss up at

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:33.120
<v Speaker 2>the end, goes to overtime, something crazy, I really do.

0:39:33.680 --> 0:39:36.719
<v Speaker 2>But when you start ahead like that, because of what

0:39:36.760 --> 0:39:40.400
<v Speaker 2>you're able to do, just in terms of not having

0:39:40.480 --> 0:39:43.040
<v Speaker 2>to play so many guys up with the box and

0:39:43.080 --> 0:39:46.839
<v Speaker 2>to be able to disguise so many things, I think

0:39:46.880 --> 0:39:48.680
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be difficult for Georgia to score more

0:39:48.719 --> 0:39:49.600
<v Speaker 2>than a couple touchdowns.

0:39:49.640 --> 0:39:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Would a shootout be the most unlikely result of this game?

0:39:53.000 --> 0:39:54.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if you know, a thirty eight to thirty five

0:39:54.920 --> 0:39:58.920
<v Speaker 2>game would be dumbfounding. But again, I and I'm only

0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:01.680
<v Speaker 2>going to speak for myself. I'm a dumb person, So

0:40:02.120 --> 0:40:03.919
<v Speaker 2>you know, take it for what it's worth.

0:40:03.960 --> 0:40:05.400
<v Speaker 1>A lot of the games that you think are going

0:40:05.440 --> 0:40:08.360
<v Speaker 1>to be defensive slug fests or on the flip side

0:40:08.360 --> 0:40:11.400
<v Speaker 1>shootouts end up being quite the opposite. Yeah, so maybe

0:40:11.600 --> 0:40:15.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe this game will surprise us. Nonetheless, two really good teams,

0:40:16.480 --> 0:40:18.880
<v Speaker 1>two good stories. Alabama's been here before, They've been in

0:40:18.880 --> 0:40:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs all four years. This is sort of Georgia's

0:40:21.840 --> 0:40:24.000
<v Speaker 1>climb back into and.

0:40:23.960 --> 0:40:26.160
<v Speaker 2>They're ahead of schedule, way ahead of schedule.

0:40:26.200 --> 0:40:29.760
<v Speaker 1>This is their climb back up into the national relevance

0:40:29.760 --> 0:40:31.880
<v Speaker 1>that they were so desperately seeking when they got rid

0:40:31.920 --> 0:40:34.280
<v Speaker 1>of a very good coach and Mark Richt and decided

0:40:34.320 --> 0:40:35.200
<v Speaker 1>to go Kirby Smart.

0:40:36.200 --> 0:40:39.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah it is uh and I say ahead of schedule,

0:40:39.480 --> 0:40:41.799
<v Speaker 2>but this was probably going to be the year because

0:40:41.800 --> 0:40:44.000
<v Speaker 2>of how much they returned from last year. You look

0:40:44.040 --> 0:40:46.640
<v Speaker 2>at the number of upperclassmen on defense, it's a bunch

0:40:46.680 --> 0:40:50.160
<v Speaker 2>of juniors and seniors along that front, and even secondary

0:40:50.280 --> 0:40:53.040
<v Speaker 2>is you know, there's a ton of experience there. Georgia

0:40:53.080 --> 0:40:54.680
<v Speaker 2>has I think a little bit of an advantage with

0:40:54.840 --> 0:40:59.640
<v Speaker 2>health which probably can't be overstated for most teams. For Alabama,

0:40:59.640 --> 0:41:04.040
<v Speaker 2>I feel like they're able to weather so much. Yeah,

0:41:04.080 --> 0:41:06.840
<v Speaker 2>what Kirby Smart has done, and I always think the

0:41:07.400 --> 0:41:10.160
<v Speaker 2>sort of x's and o's and scheme stuff. You know,

0:41:10.200 --> 0:41:13.840
<v Speaker 2>he inherited these players essentially. I think the and you

0:41:13.880 --> 0:41:17.680
<v Speaker 2>alluded to this earlier, the idea of him getting everybody

0:41:17.680 --> 0:41:20.080
<v Speaker 2>on the same page both in the off season, both

0:41:20.080 --> 0:41:22.520
<v Speaker 2>starting with last season, and then once Jacob Eason goes

0:41:22.560 --> 0:41:24.360
<v Speaker 2>down and they go to a backup quarterback going on

0:41:24.440 --> 0:41:26.959
<v Speaker 2>the road to a good Notre Dame team, and it's

0:41:27.040 --> 0:41:29.120
<v Speaker 2>just the sort of day in, day out stuff that

0:41:29.160 --> 0:41:31.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot of former Nick Saban assistants have struggled with.

0:41:32.080 --> 0:41:34.799
<v Speaker 2>Whereas Kirby Smart, for whatever reason, if it's just his

0:41:34.840 --> 0:41:37.080
<v Speaker 2>own makeup and constitution, if it's the fact that he

0:41:37.120 --> 0:41:40.360
<v Speaker 2>spent so much time in Tuscaloosa and really waited for

0:41:40.400 --> 0:41:43.440
<v Speaker 2>the right opportunity, the sort of day to day focus

0:41:43.480 --> 0:41:46.520
<v Speaker 2>of this team has been incredibly impressive. And that's how

0:41:46.520 --> 0:41:48.239
<v Speaker 2>they end up in a place like this, to be

0:41:48.320 --> 0:41:51.719
<v Speaker 2>able to win both a thirteen to ten style game

0:41:51.760 --> 0:41:53.680
<v Speaker 2>and then to go to the Rose Bowl three thousand

0:41:53.760 --> 0:41:56.400
<v Speaker 2>miles away against a high flying Oklahoma team and be

0:41:56.440 --> 0:41:59.520
<v Speaker 2>able to win playing that not style, but in that

0:41:59.640 --> 0:42:03.080
<v Speaker 2>fashion and is I think it speaks to the sort

0:42:03.120 --> 0:42:06.120
<v Speaker 2>of and total cliche that like play to play aspect

0:42:06.120 --> 0:42:07.360
<v Speaker 2>of this Georgia team.

0:42:07.719 --> 0:42:10.799
<v Speaker 1>All right, well, on that note, yes, one more time,

0:42:10.800 --> 0:42:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I've got twenty one seventeen Alabama on Monday evening. I

0:42:15.560 --> 0:42:19.560
<v Speaker 1>think they'll be crowned your college football national champion. Dan Rubinstein,

0:42:19.600 --> 0:42:21.960
<v Speaker 1>my beloved co host, twenty four to fourteen Alabama.

0:42:22.800 --> 0:42:27.120
<v Speaker 2>We agree, we agree? Anything else about the game that

0:42:27.360 --> 0:42:31.200
<v Speaker 2>intrigues you? I mean I mentioned the Mega cast, sure

0:42:31.400 --> 0:42:33.359
<v Speaker 2>that I think they're doing. This is what I really want.

0:42:33.400 --> 0:42:35.640
<v Speaker 2>This is my dream. I just want. And I don't

0:42:35.640 --> 0:42:37.680
<v Speaker 2>know how many channels ESPN has at this point. They

0:42:37.680 --> 0:42:39.920
<v Speaker 2>should probably just do this with the SEC network instead

0:42:39.920 --> 0:42:43.360
<v Speaker 2>of showing like radio hosts. I just want a scroll

0:42:43.400 --> 0:42:47.640
<v Speaker 2>of Alabama and Georgia message boards, like a live updating

0:42:47.760 --> 0:42:51.360
<v Speaker 2>feed of people just losing their minds. That to me

0:42:52.040 --> 0:42:55.759
<v Speaker 2>reflects college football more than most things pretty accurately do.

0:42:56.440 --> 0:43:01.560
<v Speaker 1>There are a bunch of accessory feeds, complementary feeds that

0:43:02.200 --> 0:43:05.440
<v Speaker 1>we'll be available through ESPN. Watch them all, flip around,

0:43:06.160 --> 0:43:08.319
<v Speaker 1>sample every one of them. I believe our friend Adam A.

0:43:08.360 --> 0:43:09.279
<v Speaker 1>Mean is going to be doing one.

0:43:09.680 --> 0:43:11.400
<v Speaker 2>I believe, so yeah.

0:43:11.080 --> 0:43:13.719
<v Speaker 1>Let us know which is your favorite and do call

0:43:13.760 --> 0:43:16.000
<v Speaker 1>in the reverb and we got one more reverbs to do.

0:43:16.760 --> 0:43:20.439
<v Speaker 1>Our boy Taylor is on board four eight. Verbal one

0:43:21.320 --> 0:43:23.760
<v Speaker 1>is the phone number. Call in during the game, before

0:43:23.800 --> 0:43:25.880
<v Speaker 1>the game, after the game, let us know what's on

0:43:25.960 --> 0:43:28.480
<v Speaker 1>your mind, let us know what your thoughts are, and

0:43:28.560 --> 0:43:30.680
<v Speaker 1>we'll do our best to work it into the final

0:43:30.760 --> 0:43:33.480
<v Speaker 1>reverb segment of the year, just to sort of close

0:43:33.520 --> 0:43:35.239
<v Speaker 1>it all out, tie it in a nice little bow.

0:43:36.000 --> 0:43:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Dan and I are going to record on Tuesday to

0:43:38.600 --> 0:43:41.960
<v Speaker 1>cap the game, cap the season, and plod forward into

0:43:42.040 --> 0:43:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the great offseason.

0:43:43.400 --> 0:43:47.800
<v Speaker 2>And we have so let's review what is also happening weekend.

0:43:48.160 --> 0:43:50.640
<v Speaker 2>As you know, we released the show beforehand and shows.

0:43:50.680 --> 0:43:53.680
<v Speaker 2>I think we'll have a bonus show. Is that correct

0:43:53.760 --> 0:43:56.400
<v Speaker 2>is career in this game. We will have a bonus

0:43:56.400 --> 0:43:59.839
<v Speaker 2>show with our pal Chris B. Brown of Chrispy Brown

0:44:00.200 --> 0:44:04.000
<v Speaker 2>of smartfootball dot Com formerly grant Land. He's done stuff

0:44:04.040 --> 0:44:07.000
<v Speaker 2>for Espionation and has written a couple of books. So

0:44:07.040 --> 0:44:09.600
<v Speaker 2>look for that bonus show sort of deep diving scheme

0:44:09.640 --> 0:44:12.640
<v Speaker 2>stuff and what these defenses are trying to do offensively.

0:44:12.680 --> 0:44:15.279
<v Speaker 2>How do you prepare for, you know, one week going

0:44:15.360 --> 0:44:19.840
<v Speaker 2>against Oklahoma, the next week going against Alabama, and then

0:44:20.560 --> 0:44:23.120
<v Speaker 2>we've got Facebook Live at Media Day. We're going to

0:44:23.200 --> 0:44:26.160
<v Speaker 2>do a video Q and A from It's not Radio

0:44:26.239 --> 0:44:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Row right, it's called Audio Avenue. Audio Avenue, yes, and

0:44:30.239 --> 0:44:32.000
<v Speaker 2>so hopefully we'll be able to rope in some friends there.

0:44:32.040 --> 0:44:34.239
<v Speaker 2>We've got the live show Saturday night, six pm to

0:44:34.280 --> 0:44:37.800
<v Speaker 2>eight pm at Switchyards. Go to Soliverble dot com for tickets.

0:44:37.840 --> 0:44:40.239
<v Speaker 2>There's only little it's a grip of tickets left, so

0:44:40.280 --> 0:44:43.040
<v Speaker 2>people have really grabbed these quickly. I like that. And

0:44:43.080 --> 0:44:47.120
<v Speaker 2>then what Tuesday we will release a recap show. Yep,

0:44:47.719 --> 0:44:49.600
<v Speaker 2>did I hit everything? Did I miss anything?

0:44:49.920 --> 0:44:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? The only other thing that I would add is

0:44:52.280 --> 0:44:55.399
<v Speaker 1>on the Facebook front. Just going out to Facebook dot

0:44:55.400 --> 0:45:00.759
<v Speaker 1>com first off, like the soliverbal Facebook page, and then

0:45:01.040 --> 0:45:04.680
<v Speaker 1>just stay tuned all throughout the morning on Saturday. You'll

0:45:04.680 --> 0:45:07.440
<v Speaker 1>be notified. I think that's the way it works. Facebook

0:45:07.440 --> 0:45:10.160
<v Speaker 1>will notify you when we go live. But Facebook's been

0:45:10.239 --> 0:45:13.399
<v Speaker 1>very kind Dan, They've got a whole set built up.

0:45:13.800 --> 0:45:17.040
<v Speaker 1>They're going to bring players to you and I we're

0:45:17.080 --> 0:45:18.919
<v Speaker 1>going to play games with them We're going to ask

0:45:18.920 --> 0:45:22.319
<v Speaker 1>them questions about the game itself. We're going to ask

0:45:22.360 --> 0:45:26.360
<v Speaker 1>them questions about themselves as people, as individuals, human beings,

0:45:26.400 --> 0:45:28.759
<v Speaker 1>try to get to know some of the players and

0:45:28.760 --> 0:45:32.560
<v Speaker 1>coaches and staff members a little bit better, and we

0:45:32.640 --> 0:45:35.040
<v Speaker 1>might bring some of our own friends on set to

0:45:35.120 --> 0:45:37.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about other aspects of the game as well. So

0:45:37.840 --> 0:45:39.920
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be a lot going on all throughout the

0:45:39.960 --> 0:45:43.000
<v Speaker 1>day on Saturday. We would very much encourage anyone who

0:45:43.000 --> 0:45:45.120
<v Speaker 1>listens to the show, who likes the show to go

0:45:45.239 --> 0:45:48.279
<v Speaker 1>on out like our Facebook page and just come along

0:45:48.320 --> 0:45:50.520
<v Speaker 1>for the ride with us. We're very much looking forward

0:45:50.560 --> 0:45:52.400
<v Speaker 1>to it. I'm hoping my voice is a little bit

0:45:52.400 --> 0:45:53.240
<v Speaker 1>stronger by then.

0:45:53.520 --> 0:45:54.120
<v Speaker 2>It held up.

0:45:54.080 --> 0:45:57.759
<v Speaker 1>Pretty well through the course of this show, so I

0:45:57.760 --> 0:46:00.279
<v Speaker 1>think I'll be all right in two days time now.

0:46:00.280 --> 0:46:03.160
<v Speaker 1>But really looking forward to getting out there and not

0:46:03.200 --> 0:46:07.320
<v Speaker 1>only talking college football with our friends and players and

0:46:07.400 --> 0:46:10.080
<v Speaker 1>coaches and all that, but also with you. It's always

0:46:10.120 --> 0:46:10.480
<v Speaker 1>a good time.

0:46:10.480 --> 0:46:12.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking forward to it. And if listen, if you're

0:46:13.000 --> 0:46:16.120
<v Speaker 2>familiar with Atlanta, hit us with some food recommendations. We're

0:46:16.120 --> 0:46:17.919
<v Speaker 2>going to be hungry. We're going to be working a lot.

0:46:18.000 --> 0:46:18.960
<v Speaker 2>We need calories.

0:46:19.239 --> 0:46:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh, and final point, Yeah, where are we going after

0:46:22.400 --> 0:46:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the live show?

0:46:23.760 --> 0:46:23.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:46:24.000 --> 0:46:27.480
<v Speaker 2>We are going to let me I actually I'm a

0:46:27.520 --> 0:46:29.440
<v Speaker 2>little bit bummed that the Falcons are playing because that

0:46:29.520 --> 0:46:33.680
<v Speaker 2>really is screwing up our plans. But I think it's

0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:37.600
<v Speaker 2>Park Bar in Atlanta. That's the plan right now. If

0:46:37.600 --> 0:46:41.000
<v Speaker 2>it's swamped, we'll move somewhere else. But yeah, it's Park

0:46:41.080 --> 0:46:44.799
<v Speaker 2>Bar in Atlanta. They have tots, it appears it's a

0:46:44.880 --> 0:46:47.120
<v Speaker 2>huge bar. So we're going to go after then for

0:46:47.960 --> 0:46:52.520
<v Speaker 2>drinks and continue hanging out with with for ballers. So

0:46:52.760 --> 0:46:55.960
<v Speaker 2>park Bar, I guess a little after eight. So if

0:46:55.960 --> 0:46:57.880
<v Speaker 2>you're not able to make the live show because of anything,

0:46:57.920 --> 0:47:00.000
<v Speaker 2>that's where we're going to be heading in downtown out.

0:47:00.800 --> 0:47:01.400
<v Speaker 1>That does it?

0:47:01.880 --> 0:47:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Boom.

0:47:02.239 --> 0:47:06.560
<v Speaker 1>We are off early tomorrow to the four oh four.

0:47:06.760 --> 0:47:09.160

0:47:09.160 --> 0:47:11.080
