1
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: Oh, you ought to see this sport behind the scenes

2
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: right now, here's what sucks about this time of year.

3
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: So much drama. It's signing day eve, by the way,

4
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: so many things going on in the portal, and you

5
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: get scoop and then you're told, now, keep that quiet,

6
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: keep that quiet. We don't want to keep it quiet

7
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: around here, but alas we will honor our sources. Trust me, friends,

8
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: nothing is settled going into tomorrow. And I cannot stress

9
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: this enough. Nothing is settled. Your most secure verbal commits

10
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: are one off er away from Posh's going up and

11
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: smoke and with that lake Kick is live. We are

12
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: jam packed high top of paranoid downtown Nashville, Tennessee, Tuesday night,

13
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: December nineteenth, Year of our Lower twenty twenty three. It's

14
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: like Leo said right before he won those tickets on

15
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: the Titanic. Can remember that Colin they're playing cards there

16
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: in Southampton and he said, this is it moment of truth.

17
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: Somebody's life's about to change. As it turns out, his

18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: life was about to end. So tomorrow's stakes are not

19
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 1: quite that high, at least I don't think. But ma'am,

20
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: people could lose their jobs or at least set themselves

21
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: on a course of losing their jobs. Some people could

22
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: set themselves up on a course of winning a national championship,

23
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: National signing Day, lock in for it. I got scoop

24
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: on that. I got scoop on the transfer portal. Tough,

25
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: tough week for the too many Bowls crowd. I mean

26
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: they're down bad after the famous Toaster Rebowl yesterday. Where

27
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: were you when the famous Toastery Bowl reached an exciting

28
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: conclusion yesterday? I have got so many things to discuss

29
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: on the show tonight. I opened the mail bag, and

30
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: you guys took me all different kinds of directions. I

31
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: got some Ou Texas stuff. But also, you know, someone

32
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: asked a question about which fan base, if they ever

33
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: became elite, would be the most nauseating fan base to

34
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: deal with in college football. I'm asking the question now

35
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: because I want you to think on that for a

36
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: little while. Take a fan base whose team is not

37
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: elite right now, has not been elite for a while,

38
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: they become elite who is totally insufferable. There were some

39
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: usual suspects, and there were some surprising responses I got

40
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: from you guys as well. So we're jam packed. We

41
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: were loaded. Also, I got six best bets at the

42
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: end of the show. The ro Ma Noodle Express is

43
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: back in a big Christmas Bowl type way. They're watching

44
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: us in Perry, Oklahoma, Gulf Shores, Alabama, Akron, Ohio, at

45
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: Sugi Japan. Got that pronunciation. Be sure you're following friends

46
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: at late Kick Josh. It's imperative for best bets. All

47
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 1: sorts of stuff's about to happen over the next twenty

48
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: four hours. I mean, I'm gonna be here for the

49
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: National Signing Day show tomorrow, but make sure you're following.

50
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: And that's not even to talk about the trips we're

51
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: about to take to Pasadena for the semi final, Houston

52
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: for the National Championship game. We got all that, and

53
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: I got very exciting speakers lined up starting Thursday right here,

54
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 1: and have a normal show Thursday because Bradley and Colin

55
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: need a Christmas break. Producer Jesse's already on one. He

56
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: tells me he's down in Fort Lauderdale to work the

57
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: Signing Day show. I don't have any evidence of that though,

58
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: So in lieu of live shows Thursday, Sunday, next Tuesday,

59
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: and lou of all that, we got Joel Clatt coming

60
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: on the show. I got Joe Tessitor coming on the show.

61
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: I got Greg McElroy coming on the show. And I

62
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: did not dodge the important questions you want to ask.

63
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: Do you want to know about bias against Florida State?

64
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: You want to talk about SEC bias in ESPN? You

65
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: want me to ask all that I'm looking out for you,

66
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: I asked it. I thought me and Klatt had some

67
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: really really good stuff about the future of the sport.

68
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: Dare I say it will change the entire trajectory of

69
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: college football. That is the bar that we have to

70
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: clear Thursday. Anyway, look forward to that later. As for now,

71
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: I was going to lead the show with something else tonight.

72
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: But you know what, once yesterday happened, I thought there

73
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: was no other runway that I wanted to take off

74
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: on than this one. Colin, here's your endpoint. Brant hit

75
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,559
Speaker 1: me up and Brant said, did you watch the glorious

76
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: famous Toastery Bowl yesterday from Brainerd, Minnesota? Oh? I watched it, Brent.

77
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: I watched every second of it. This was Old Dominion

78
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: versus Western Kentucky. I cannot promise you that either university

79
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: will ever be in the show again. But they're gonna

80
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: be in the show right now. And I have a

81
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: bigger point here, So I am a believer, much like

82
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: Andy Dufrain was in Shaw Shank. Andy wrote to Red

83
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: and he said, remember Red, Hope is a good thing,

84
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. Well,

85
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 1: in my world, bulls are a good thing, maybe the

86
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: best of things, and no good thing ever dies, not

87
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: even when you're down twenty eight zip. Because that's where

88
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: our boys from Western Kentucky found themselves yesterday. Tom Lougan

89
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: Bill on the call, I'm afraid he's gonna take a

90
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: nap in the booth. In the second half it was

91
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: so bad, and then it wasn't. And so Western Kentucky

92
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: is down twenty eight zip. They score a touchdown. Out

93
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: of boredom, they score a touchdown, and that's when the

94
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: shot happened. Bradley the associate, was texted a video earlier

95
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: today and it's from the eye Josh. Because I did

96
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: it the old fashioned way. I literally put my phone

97
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: up to the TV screen. Yesterday there was a girl

98
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: on the sideline. We have tracked her down. Her name

99
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: is Kylie Jackson. She works in nutrition for Western Kentucky.

100
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: She is now a friend of the program. Look at

101
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: this energy. Look at that that's down twenty eight to seven.

102
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: That's as much life as I had seen on either

103
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: sideline all day. That is caged animal mode. You don't

104
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: even need to see it if you're just listening on podcasts.

105
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: I want you to imagine someone who is pretending their

106
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: entire life is on the line based on the outcome

107
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: of this game, and she's just in nutrition. She's not

108
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: even suiting up and going out there. Well from that point,

109
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: from that point in this game, they go on a

110
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: twenty eight to seven run, in fact, a thirty five

111
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,799
Speaker 1: to seven run total, and Western Kentucky wins the Famous

112
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 1: Toastery Bowl. And in the Famous Toastery Bowl when you win, Colin,

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: could you run a b roll in the latter portion again?

114
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: When you win the Famous Toastery Bowl, let me explain

115
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: to you what happens. They bring buckets of toast on

116
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 1: the field. You don't get this on Sundays. They bring

117
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: buckets of toast on the field. Looks like it tastes

118
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 1: pretty good, and they just shower the field with real

119
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: toasts like toasted bread, buttered toasted bread is all over

120
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: the field. It was deep enough. It actually accumulated enough

121
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 1: that some guys did toast angels. It was very beautiful.

122
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 1: So anyway, that happens. And then I slowly start to

123
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: look at my DMS, and I realize a lot of

124
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: you are picking up what I'm putting down, and I

125
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: didn't even need to say anything about it. A lot

126
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: of you said, Hey, isn't this really good ammunition against

127
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: the people out there, the casuals amongst us who say

128
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: there are too many Bowl games? Yes, it was friends.

129
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: You know this person, casual Carl, And he walks amongst us,

130
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: generally miser throughout his entire life, but especially this time

131
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: of year, as Bowl season and the holidays approach and

132
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: he's got nothing else going on, he says, they're too

133
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: many Bowl games. By the way, that's wrong, that's false,

134
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: that's a lie. And secondly, casual Carl, I find some

135
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: irony in being the same guy who tells me too

136
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: many bulls have devalued bull season. I know you've heard

137
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: this before. Maybe you've trafficked in this argument. Like Mima

138
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: always said, smart people say casual things. Casual people rarely

139
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: say smart things. You can decide which bucket you find

140
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: yourself in. But I've always found it kind of interesting

141
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: that some of the casuals who scream too many Bowl

142
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: games have deluded Bowl season and I don't like watching

143
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: bulls anymore. Why again, because there are too many of them.

144
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: Those folks look me in the eye with a totally

145
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: straight face and say more playoff games will in no

146
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: way dilute or devalue the regular season. That will not happen.

147
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: So basically, we have partial economic principle that applies here.

148
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: See over here in this compartment, Yes, you cannot decrease

149
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: the scarcity of something and maintain the value. But over here,

150
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: not only can you decrease something and maintain the value.

151
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,559
Speaker 1: We're gonna have more value. We're gonna have more meaning

152
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: on more games. And meanwhile, folks of my ilk, just

153
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: sit over in the corner, just sit over by the

154
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: garbage can. It's not even worth my time. But there

155
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: are not too many Bowl games now. If you want

156
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: to argue their value has been deluded, be my guest.

157
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: If you want to argue that they don't mean as

158
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: much to you because more players opt out of them,

159
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I totally get that. But there's no way.

160
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,599
Speaker 1: At four forty five in the afternoon, the more responsible

161
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: minded amongst us have left work early and we're watching

162
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: the famous Toastery Bowl and you're watching that ending. I mean,

163
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: I was jack I was glued to that thing. I

164
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: also happen to cash a Western Kentucky plus twenty eight

165
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: and a half live ticket. And here's how sadistic I am,

166
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: as I told you guys on Twitter, even though I

167
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: had this thing more than locked up, I got Hilltoppers

168
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: plus twenty eight and a half. I wanted the outright

169
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: win because I want my guys to win, and I

170
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: wanted Kylie Jackson to win. And she did very simple

171
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: here simple protocol. Okay, I've actually put it on paper.

172
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: If you think there are too many Bowl games, do

173
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: the following. Don't watch. If you think the SEC schedule

174
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: release was too long at two hours the other day, um,

175
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: don't watch, and then let the rest of us enjoy

176
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: our Bowl season. Keep casuals away from December. It's always

177
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: been my policy. It always will be happy to have

178
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: you guys in. If you're watching live or if you're

179
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: watching on replay, make sure you subscribe to the channel

180
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: like the video I've got on a post it on

181
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: my finger right now that I need to remind you

182
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: the big day tomorrow, National Signing Day is upon us

183
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: and we go live over on the twenty four seven

184
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: Sports YouTube channel at ten am Eastern, nine am Central.

185
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: There is a huge internal push the company has tried

186
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: to mandate that I wear more than just the white

187
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 1: T shirt. Immense peer pressure on me to wear more

188
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: than just the white T shirt, which is the downside

189
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: of going and doing those shows in New York. Once

190
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: people found out that I do own more than this,

191
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: they had the audacity to expect me to wear more

192
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: than this. And I would be lying to you if

193
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: I said I wasn't a little uncomfortable and turned off

194
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: by the whole idea. But you know me, I'm nothing

195
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: if not a company guy. And so we'll see, we'll see.

196
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: I'm still undecided. I'm like a kid in the portal.

197
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm still very much undecided. I need I need some

198
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: more information tonight. I want to see what they can

199
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 1: offer me. What can this company offer me? What can

200
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: management offer me? I mean, look, I've been to management's house.

201
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,439
Speaker 1: I've seen that garage they've got, They've they've been blessed

202
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: immensely down in that gated community. So what can they

203
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: offer me in exchange for maybe, I don't know, tossing

204
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: on a jacket on top of the T shirt. Tomorrow,

205
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: let's talk about the transfer portal, right now? What's going

206
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: on at USC? Everyone wants to know. This is USC

207
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: in trouble? Is the program sick out there? First? Malachi Nelson,

208
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: the former five star quarterback, he's in the portal. Corey

209
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: Foreman just within the last couple of hours, formerly one of,

210
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: if not the top players in the country. He's in

211
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: the portal. Demani Jackson, former five star dB. He's in

212
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: the portal. So what's happening? Is this cause for concern

213
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: or maybe even alarm? Well, I know a lot of

214
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: you like to hate on USC. I'm accused of being

215
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: one of those people a lot, So it will greatly

216
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: pain me. Actually at won't at all to let you

217
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: know that this is not a stage five crisis like

218
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 1: it's being made out to be. I mean, Malachi Nelson,

219
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna shoot you straight, was not about to

220
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: play at USC. He was a ways away from getting

221
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 1: on the field for USC. He wasn't good enough to

222
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: play for him. Corey Foreman, it was not an impact

223
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: player for them. Now, if you want to go down

224
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: the whole side road of why weren't they developed to

225
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 1: the point where they were not even my area of expertise,

226
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: Nor is it most peoples who actually end up questioning

227
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,959
Speaker 1: that sort of thing Demani Jackson. Look, I'm not gonna

228
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: cast dispersions on any defensive player there because their entire

229
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: defense needed an overhaul philosophically, maybe also personnel wise. Here's

230
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: what I'm telling you. I don't look at this in

231
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: a vacuum. So Lincoln Riley went and fired his defensive

232
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: coordinator and brought in a guy from across town at UCLA,

233
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: and he had a press conference and Lincoln Riley said

234
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: something that kind of went unnoticed. I thought it was

235
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: a huge deal, as big as words can be. And

236
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,599
Speaker 1: he said, we're assessing everything. We're going to change everything

237
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: about who we are. Everything he said, you listened to that,

238
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: and he talked about everything all the way down to practice,

239
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: habits and philosophy around here is going to be defense first.

240
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley said that, not his cousin, not ranged sister

241
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: in law. Lincoln Riley said that, like mister xbox mister

242
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: hang fifty a game, said defense first round here. Now, well,

243
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: I would imagine if he's serious about that, that coincides

244
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: with a total philosophy shift. And if they're real about that,

245
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: one of the first signs was gonna be some of

246
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: the really nice locking ornaments they brought in in prior classes.

247
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: We're not gonna have a home there anymore. This is

248
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: actually a sign to me, at least that what he

249
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 1: said had a lot of validity to it. There's no

250
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: guarantee it's gonna work. In fact, Lincoln Riley's never done

251
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: it that way, but other successful coaches have, so maybe

252
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: he will be successful with that. But you can't just

253
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: say we're gonna be different tomorrow. We're gonna be different.

254
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: The next day, we're gonna be You don't just say it, guys.

255
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: There actually has to be like tangible movement behind that idea.

256
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: And in some cases you got to show kids where

257
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 1: the exit door is. I mean, these dudes won't hurt

258
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: the find other landing spots, but if they're serious about

259
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: shifting who they are from a philosophical approach, a lot

260
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: of those players weren't going to have a home there anymore.

261
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 1: And That's how I take it, So it's not a

262
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: crisis at all. If anything, I mean, if I'm wanting

263
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: them to shift philosophy out there, it may even end

264
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: up being a good thing. They brought in Will Howard,

265
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: the quarterback from Kansas State. I guarantee you this. There

266
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: won't be a scene in the Los Angeles Coliseum like

267
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: he had against Iowa State his last game in Manhattan,

268
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: Kansas half a foot of snow on the ground. Well

269
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: check that. There won't be a home game for USC

270
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: that looks like that. I don't know what happens when

271
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: they go to Iowa City in November. And that brings

272
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: me to my next point. They didn't have an option.

273
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: They're going to the Big Ten next year. Do you

274
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: understand how hideous it would be to watch Iowa play

275
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: USC right now? Do you understand physically what they would do?

276
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: That is the high schoolers taking a field trip to

277
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: the elementary school when it comes to a physical mismatch.

278
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: USC's got to do something, and I think they are.

279
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: And this is a side effect of it. It's not

280
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: always the worst thing in the world when formerly highly

281
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: rated players exit your program. Sometimes it's a necessary evil

282
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: by the way, just another thing to watch signing days

283
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: tomorrow at portal season. Still, what kind of player are

284
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: they looking for right now? Another way to put that

285
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: is how much have the critical factors and critical traits

286
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: they look for in players at specific positions changed since

287
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley decided to go in a new direction. That's

288
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: where rubber meets the road on this stuff. Next up,

289
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: huge news earlier today, really big news. We've been waiting

290
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: for it. It finally dropped Evan Stewart, former five star

291
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 1: receiver at Texas A and M is in the transfer portal.

292
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: This is a big one. This is an immediate impact

293
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: guy no matter where he lands. We think Alabama's going

294
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: to be in this Michigan Ohio state, there's some traction there.

295
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: He's right up the road from Texas or down the

296
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: road from Texas Florida state. So there are usual suspect

297
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: type programs that immediately stand out. Evan Stewart would be

298
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: I think a take at any of those places. I

299
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: think that I don't know that he'd be a take

300
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: at Peyton State. Here's the other thing you need to know.

301
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: Sometimes when these highly rated kids go into the portal,

302
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: you get word pretty quick he's going to go to

303
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: the highest bidder. In fact, a lot of times that's

304
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: the case in the NIL world. I'm not telling you

305
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: Evan Stewart's about to go play for free, or Eva Stuart,

306
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: as the slider there said, I'm not telling you he's

307
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: about to go play for free. I do not think

308
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: this is going to take the shape of the bidding

309
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: war that some other high profile portal entries have taken.

310
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it to you like that. And so

311
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: it's still early on. This just happened in the last

312
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 1: few hours, but I would also fairly assume there's been

313
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: some due diligence done already before he decided to enter

314
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: his name there. So keep an eye on that. That's

315
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: a big one. We're going to talk about it every

316
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: day until he signed somewhere. Caden Green, that's the tackle

317
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: from Oklahoma, started six or seven games for him this year,

318
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: went to the portal. He's landed at Missouri. Eli Drinkwitz

319
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: is one of the talks of the sport right now.

320
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: They've got a top twenty five recruiting class and then

321
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: they're doing what they're doing in the portal. They got

322
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,479
Speaker 1: him from Oklahoma. They flipped Toreono Pride. They didn't flip him.

323
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: They got Toreona Pride out of the portal from Clemson

324
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: a few days ago. That's a four star corner. Marcus

325
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: Carroll's a four star running back. They got him as well.

326
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: They have taken what they did on the field this season,

327
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: and they've done exactly what you always hope, you always

328
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: hope on field results will yield forward leaning portal and

329
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: recruiting success. Well, it's happened in both lanes. It's happened

330
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: for Eli Drinkwitz. And I think just today Courtney Crutchfield's

331
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: a four star wide receiver out of high school out

332
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: of Arkansas, got him too. So I don't think it's

333
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: a secret anymore. The secret's out. But if you find

334
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: someone that is just kind of oblivious to this by

335
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: all the stock in Missouri from them, you can because

336
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,719
Speaker 1: that's a program, not a team, not a one hit wonder.

337
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 1: That is a program that's trending up. Oregon. Same deal.

338
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: The public, for example with Oregon sees that they just

339
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 1: lost to Washington twice, and they laugh, they joke about Oregon.

340
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: The staff just buckled their chin strap and went to work.

341
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: That much harder. You know, they got Dylan Gabriel, the

342
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: Oklahoma quarterback, out of the portal. They also went and

343
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: got Dante more just for good measure. You got some

344
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: programs out there standing over a salvation army drummer ringing

345
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: a bell looking for any guy with his arm still

346
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: attached to play quarterback for him. And then you got

347
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: Dan Lanning and his staff saying we got one not

348
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: good enough, make it too, let him fight it out.

349
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: Who cares? So Dante Moore, who was the top quarterback

350
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 1: in the last cycle, he was at UCLA, He's now

351
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 1: at Oregon. And Dylan Gabriel is like thirty seven years old,

352
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: so he's got one more year to play. He's at Oregon.

353
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: They may put together the best defensive line class in

354
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: the country come signing day tomorrow. We're saying things about Oregon.

355
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 1: In other words, even with how lofty they've recruited in

356
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: the past, that we haven't found ourselves saying. So the

357
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: jokes are valid right now. Couldn't overcome Washington, got news

358
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 1: for you. No one else could to this point. Either

359
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: Texas is gonna have their hands full with them. They

360
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: couldn't overcome Washington. It's funny. It's a punchline right now.

361
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 1: Let's just keep an eye on the old ducks out there.

362
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: If something tells me they're not going away. If anything,

363
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: they're just gonna get a little bit more in your

364
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: face this time next year. Marvin Jones talked about him

365
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: transferring from Georgia, the edge player there. He's headed to

366
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: Florida State. That's not a surprise. We talked about that.

367
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,719
Speaker 1: That was our expectation number twenty overall player in the portal.

368
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: They needed depth at that position. Big pickup from Mike North.

369
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: There is so much going on in the portal. I

370
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: just doing some digging early before the show. Walter Nolan

371
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 1: don't have a whole lot to say about him. I

372
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: strongly lean ole miss. I'm like ninety to ninety five

373
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: percent old miss there. Aj Harris was the former five

374
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: star dB at Georgia went in the portal. I still

375
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 1: think Auburn. I haven't heard anything to sway me off that.

376
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: Cam Ward the quarterback from Washington State, who you know

377
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 1: has taken visits. He went to Miami. You know he's

378
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: he's been out there for a little while. I need

379
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: to remind you the NFL is also a possibility for him. Now.

380
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of grade he's gotten back.

381
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: I would imagine it's not first round. Here. It would

382
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 1: be a no brainer that he's going to play on Sundays.

383
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: But FSU Miami like those are names that you hear

384
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: a lot with him. No decision there yet. Jamon Dumas Johnson,

385
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of Auburn smoke there. I

386
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: think it got out that he took a trip to

387
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: Kentucky as well. So there's some familiar names, there's some

388
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: new names and in the mix. Really seriously here, there

389
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: are so many names to keep an eye on that

390
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 1: it's impossible to wrap it all up in one segment.

391
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: What I will tell you is possible, no matter if

392
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 1: you have put off or dare I say, shirt your

393
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: Christmas shopping responsibility all the way up until now, which

394
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: is December nineteenth. Academy doesn't care. They welcome you. The

395
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,639
Speaker 1: last minute shopper is welcomed at Academy. They might as

396
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: well have a statue out front with those letters carved

397
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: on the breast a little bit too graphic there, Maybe

398
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: just carve it on like the shoulder, you know, a

399
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 1: nice little granite tattoo there. Bring me your late arriving shoppers.

400
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: My shelves are full for you. And if you can't

401
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: get here, this is probably not going to go on

402
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: the statue. If you can't get here, Academy dot com

403
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: also has you covered. I know that you probably saw

404
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: earlier today. I retweeted someone like I do pretty much

405
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: every day, who had stopped it an Academy and then

406
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: took a picture of their purchases and tagged me in them.

407
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. What you guys don't know but you

408
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: should know is I take every one of those and

409
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: I forward them to Academy management, who, unlike our management,

410
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 1: it is kind of a blue collar, roll up your sleeves,

411
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: dirt under the fingernails, just a regular like we are.

412
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: They love that stuff. And what they really love is inevitably,

413
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: when you guys go to the checkout counter, you grab

414
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: a patch of a pouch of big lead chew. And

415
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 1: the best thing about big lead chew is it loses

416
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: its flavor in like ten seconds. We love it though

417
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: we love it, And because it loses its flavor, you're

418
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: probably more likely to come back to Academy sooner for

419
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: your refill than you otherwise would be. So it's a

420
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: win all around. We appreciate Academy. They are imperative every

421
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: day in our lives, but especially for your life this

422
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: time of year, make sure you check out Academy Sports

423
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: and Outdoors. All Right, I didn't talk about Dylan really yet,

424
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna talk about him now. He's gonna he's

425
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 1: gonna get his own segment here for a couple of minutes.

426
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: But this is not strictly going to be a let's

427
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 1: praise Nebraska segment. I'm gonna hit on the Georgia part

428
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: of this too. You guys ever go to the orthodontists.

429
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: Do they give you these little tiny chapsticks? They gave

430
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: me this at CBS up in New York. Stuff's awesome.

431
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 1: I almost look forward to low due points. It's delicious too.

432
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,679
Speaker 1: So it finally happened. Dylan Riola, whose name I had

433
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: been mispronouncing for far too long, five star quarterback. He

434
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: flipped from Georgia to Alabama. No Florida, no, Ohio State. No.

435
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: Flipped in Nebraska. Matt Ruhle just rung the bell. He

436
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:45,360
Speaker 1: flipped in Nebraska. Oh. By the way, Dylan Riola flips

437
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: from Georgia to Nebraska in the form of a poem

438
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: that he allegedly wrote himself and released on the socials.

439
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 1: As they say in this town, that ain't the way

440
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: Hank did it. As I say, that ain't the way

441
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: Mema did it. But I digress to each his own thought.

442
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: It was a C plus poem, but it's an A

443
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: plus landing for Nebraska. Now. Two things can be very

444
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: true here. The first is this is monumental. This is

445
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 1: one of the biggest things to happen in Lincoln, Nebraska

446
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 1: in quite a while as it relates to athletics. The

447
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 1: other thing that could be true is Georgia will be

448
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: just fine after this, And this may not be the

449
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 1: time for it, but there is coming a day where

450
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: I need to have myself a nice little commentary on

451
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: what schools choose to do in the form of nil

452
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: versus what they technically have the capability to do. That's

453
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: for another day, because I want to celebrate in Nebraska

454
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 1: for just a second. Here. I have, as usual, a

455
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: bunch of detractors, probably the same folks who think there

456
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 1: are too many bowl games this time of year, who,

457
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: as soon as a kid makes a decision, their first

458
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: thought is, what if he's a bust? Well, what if

459
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: he's a bust? You want? You want to go down

460
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: that road, I'll go down that road. What if Dylan

461
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: Ryle is a bust? Oh? What if he never throws

462
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: a touchdown pass? Now that would be extreme, But what

463
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: if he isn't? I don't know. I think the sun

464
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: will continue to rise there. Let's be more realistic. What

465
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: if he's just an average player. What's the expectation for

466
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: him at Nebraska? Are we talking about savior of program?

467
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: Matt Rule equals tom Osborne two point? Oh? Like? Are

468
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: we talking about that kind of expectation. That's not my expectation.

469
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to be a little more reasonable. I just

470
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: want him to be the quarterback that starts for a

471
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: team that becomes a respectable contender in the Big Ten.

472
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: That's a little bit more modest, I know than some

473
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 1: of you guys in big Red country are thinking. That's fine.

474
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: I want you to have big expectations. That's great. I

475
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: want to be reasonable about it so that percentage wise,

476
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: I have a better chance of coming back later when

477
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,439
Speaker 1: he fulfills exactly what I expected, and I can shoot

478
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: back at other folks who falsely inflated expectations and say

479
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 1: maybe that was the problem. Maybe that expectation inflation was

480
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: the problem. Colin, We're gonna use that expectation inflation. I

481
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: think you'll be okay there. Look, I've watched him throw

482
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: at at Lead eleven, just like the rest of our staff. Dim.

483
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: I thought he was a tinge overrated at the time,

484
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: but he was the number one quarterback in the country,

485
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: you know, so he can be overrated and still be

486
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 1: one of the best players in the class. Give him

487
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: a little time, and I think you'll be fine. The

488
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 1: second part of this, and the reason I'm bringing this

489
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: up in what seems like a little bit of a

490
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 1: negative light, is I want to go worst case scenario intentionally.

491
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: Let's say he's average at best. This isn't just about

492
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: landing a quarterback. Okay, at Georgia, he was a quarterback.

493
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: Georgia doesn't have to worry about messaging. George is not

494
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: trying to rebuild anything. Nebraska is from near the ground up.

495
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: They're trying to rebuild something. This is as much about

496
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: messaging as it is anything else. Do you know what

497
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: it means to ninety five percent of the college football

498
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: public who doesn't follow this stuff as hardcore as you

499
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: and I do. To see a kid flip from Georgia

500
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: to Nebraska at this position, you know what that means.

501
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 1: You know what it means for Matt Rule, no matter

502
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: what the mechanisms were behind the scenes. Again, ninety five

503
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: percent of the public is ignorant of that. Do you

504
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: know what it means for Matt Rule to be able

505
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: to say me one Kirby smart zero because that's what

506
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: it looks like. That's not exactly what it was, but

507
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: that's what it looks like. And messaging is everything here.

508
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: This is essentially marketing as well as talent acquisition. For Nebraska,

509
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 1: it was just one of those things. For Georgia, it's

510
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: just talent acquisition, bottom line business for them. That block

511
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,239
Speaker 1: g resonates coast to coast, Well, that end has not

512
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: meant what it used to mean in a long time.

513
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: Coast to coast I can take. I can walk into

514
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: Minneapolis International Airport wearing that g on my chest and

515
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: folks who don't even watch football know what it is.

516
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: And even if they don't, they know more than just

517
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: University of Georgia. They know University of Georgia pretty good football. Too,

518
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: even though I don't watch dude, Folks don't think that

519
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: about Nebraska right now. And if you're under forty years old,

520
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,360
Speaker 1: you have no awareness that they ever were anything in football.

521
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: That's the truth. So any kind of any kind of

522
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: messaging win, you know, any kind of promotional win that

523
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 1: you can get for your program, whether it comes with

524
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: a five star quarterback attached to it or not, is

525
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: a big day for you. Now, let me say this

526
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: about Georgia. Okay, so the reason I said they'll be

527
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: fine is number one, Kirby Smart's running the program. Should

528
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 1: be the end of the segment. But let me add this.

529
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: When we were out at a lead eleven, I got

530
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,479
Speaker 1: to talk with every one of these kids. I got

531
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: to watch every one of them throw, standing ten yards

532
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: away from them. Ryola has the ball jump out of

533
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: his hands. It's very obvious. He's got legs thicker than

534
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: most guys that you would see at that level or beyond.

535
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: He's just built a little bit different physically. He's a

536
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: one percenter. They've got another kid committed named Ryan Paglsi.

537
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: I also watched him, also spoke with him. I don't

538
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: think that kid will take a back seat to many people.

539
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: I know he's got four stars next to his name,

540
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: and Ryola's got five stars. That's okay, that's well and good. Okay,

541
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: we've seen a million case studies on this where four

542
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: stars going to be drafted in the first round. A

543
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: four star is not a negative, by the way, Police's

544
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: just a little bit different. Cap you ever grow up with.

545
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: I'll give you an example all of you can relate to.

546
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm not a big NBA guy, but one of the

547
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: most impressive things I ever saw in an NBA game

548
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: is when Kobe Bryant was guarding the baseline and I

549
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: can't even remember who it was, but that dude started

550
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: to inbound the ball and he goes in Kobe's face

551
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: real quick with it, and Kobe doesn't even move. Matt

552
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: Barnes and Kobe doesn't even move. That is that's like

553
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: alien DNA. Humans are not wired like that. Poglisee's that

554
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 1: kind of guy. I don't think that you get much

555
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: reaction or flinch out of him if you put a

556
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: ball in his face like that. Very cerebral could take

557
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: or leave the process. Wasn't about the spotlight. Just a

558
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: guy who I trust in big moments. I trust him

559
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: in big moments, mechanically may be better than Ryola. So

560
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: I was talking to a couple of quarterback coaches yesterday

561
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: about him. I told him what I thought, and they

562
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: echoed it like they've got a winner. They had two

563
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: of them probably in this class. And now it just

564
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: sorted itself out. And you know what, if I was

565
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: that kid, you know what I tell myself. I tell

566
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: myself they didn't want any part of me, and by them,

567
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: I mean anyone trying to compete. They didn't want any

568
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 1: part of me. And you know what, maybe he's right,

569
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: maybe he's wrong, whatever, you got to tell yourself to

570
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: get yourself ready to compete. George will be just fine.

571
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: If that's the quarterback of your future, your future will

572
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: be just fine. And so will Nebraska's see what I

573
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: did there. It wasn't a Winter Loser segment. It was

574
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: just Winter Winter. But I'm not gonna say chicken dinner.

575
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: I want to get to some questions here. I got

576
00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: a lot left. Hey, the Michigan scandal, there's a question

577
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 1: about that. In my pack here tonight we got bold

578
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,479
Speaker 1: predictions gone right and wrong. I've got six best bets

579
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: for bold season. I got a lot to get to.

580
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: If you guys are watching live, that can't possibly be right.

581
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: Hold on just a second. Okay, it wasn't. I mean, granted,

582
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: I'd still like more than five hundred likes on the video,

583
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: but there was a typo a second ago said seventy

584
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: poverty numbers. By the way, if you're watching, click that

585
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: thumbs up button. Okay, Colin, do we have this question

586
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: about Oklahoma and Texas? Yes, here we go. Let me

587
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: take a sip from the chalice making Georgia. That's where

588
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: this question comes from. Okay, So I know we're right

589
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: in the middle of everything because it's December and college football,

590
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 1: but I did want to address this. So Rip from

591
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: Making Georgia hit us and said which teams are most

592
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: likely to deliver the first on the field. Welcome to

593
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 1: the SEC. It just means more upset moment for Texas

594
00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: and Oklahoma. My short answer is I don't know who's

595
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: gonna upset them first. Rick. That's my answer to your question.

596
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: Allow me to now use your question as an excuse

597
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: to say what I really want to say. What do

598
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: you guys actually expect is about to happen? Here? I'm

599
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: talking to SEC fans. I am not talking to a

600
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: specific fan base. I'm talking to the crowd that chance

601
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: SEC probably because someone else is doing big things and

602
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: your team's not good enough. What do you think is

603
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: about to happen to Oklahoma and Texas? Because if I

604
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: didn't know any better, I would think that both of

605
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 1: these programs just got tossed on a wood chipper with

606
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: broken legs and they're just awaiting the inevitable. And that

607
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: is not what's about to happen, at least in my mind.

608
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: It's not. This is not a situation where Texas and

609
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: O you board the bus and immediately you just have

610
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: to go all the way to the back and then

611
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: work your way up. What's really about to happen is

612
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: Texas and know you're going to board the bus sure enough,

613
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna get to about row two, three, four five

614
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: somewhere around there, and then the driver's gonna walk up

615
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: to you and he's gonna say you're in their seat,

616
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: and they're gonna beat you on the field, and you're

617
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: gonna find out the hard way. Oh, the SEC actually

618
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 1: really isn't a team that you play on Saturdays. Kentucky

619
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: is Kentucky's sitting behind Texas and Oklahoma. Okay, the SEC

620
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: is not a team you play on Saturday. South Carolina is,

621
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,479
Speaker 1: and as it stands right now, South Carolina sitting behind

622
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Texas. Like I know there's this really free

623
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: flowing ideology in the South right now because I live

624
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: here and I have my whole life that Texas know

625
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: you're about to get a lesson taught to them when

626
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: they come in the SEC. Oh, there'll be an adjustment period, Yes,

627
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: there absolutely will be for everyone, because some of you

628
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: are gonna have to get comfortable with the idea that

629
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: they walked in and then sat in front of you,

630
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: and the net result is you're just a rung further

631
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: down the ladder. But don't worry, because people you'll never

632
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: meet in your life. If we're going to get the

633
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: cash a bigger check in exchange for them being in

634
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: the conference, Cecie s CC. Yeah, it's about players, guys.

635
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 1: So for those of you who think I'm wrong, it's fine.

636
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 1: We got differing opinions all the time on this show.

637
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: Happy to read the comment section, happy to engage. But

638
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: I do want to know for those of you who

639
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: think this conference is just gonna swallow Oklahoma or text

640
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: us up, and they won't achieve at nearly the level

641
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 1: they think they do. What's your reasoning behind that? There's

642
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: not like magic dust that gets sprinkled all over every

643
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: other program down here, but when they show up, there's

644
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: none left and it's just like a magical force field

645
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: they can't break into. Tangibly walk me through to a

646
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 1: logical conclusion. What do you think it is this conference

647
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: is about to do to them? Because I look at

648
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: their rosters and I look at the group of players

649
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: they have that makes up their team, and I think

650
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: they're comparable with just about anyone over here. And the

651
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: reason I think that is because they've got rosters full

652
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 1: of kids that the big boys over here wanted. Bama

653
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: wanted a lot of these players. Georgia wanted a lot

654
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: of these players. The last three recruiting cycles, which makes

655
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,240
Speaker 1: up about eighty percent of these rosters right now, including

656
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: the one they're about to sign tomorrow, Texas has been fifth, third,

657
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 1: and fifth, Oklahoma's been eighth, fifth and seventh. Take away

658
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: Bama and Georgia. Who else is recruiting better than that?

659
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: Do you think that they're just lesser players that are

660
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 1: artificially inflated. If they are, then Bama must have been

661
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: in on it. Georgia must have been in on it,

662
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,919
Speaker 1: because I look at their offer sheets and they were

663
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,359
Speaker 1: after some of these kids that Texas signed. You don't

664
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 1: think You don't think every school in the country one

665
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: of Calvin Banks like You really think Xavier worthy kids

666
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: like that? You really think they took Texas as the

667
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,320
Speaker 1: best of a lesser group of options. Are you serious?

668
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: That's not the way this works. They're walking in here

669
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 1: with premier players. That means they're going to have just

670
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: as good a shot as pretty much anyone in the

671
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 1: SEC of winning it. They will have to adjust. Every

672
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 1: venue that visit, by and large, will be the first

673
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: time they've been there. But you know what, most of

674
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: y'all hadn't played in Austin or Norman either. I haven't

675
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 1: even been to a game in Norman, and I know

676
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: that's not an easy place to go, That's not an

677
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: easy team to play. So I know that I got

678
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 1: all the respect in the world for the SEC. It's

679
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: the best conference in the country. What I'm saying is

680
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: it's the best conference in the country because it's made

681
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: up of some really good teams, really good teams don't

682
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 1: walk in and get swallowed up by it. Guys, they

683
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: may take another loss than they normally would because they're

684
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: playing Ole Miss instead of playing Texas Tech, and the

685
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,720
Speaker 1: athlete is a little bit higher caliber, but by and large,

686
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna give it back every bit as much, if

687
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: not more than they get it in this conference. And

688
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: here's something else that'll happen. If there are threads of

689
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: vulnerability woven into their programs, if there are threads of

690
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 1: weakness woven into their programs because they hadn't been put

691
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: in the oven that the sec is it'll take care

692
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 1: of itself by being put in the oven, it'll take

693
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 1: care of itself. I just think they're coming in here

694
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 1: moving a lot quicker figuratively speaking than it looks like

695
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 1: they are from folks just sitting up in the stands.

696
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 1: Next question, Cole, we're going to talk about this for

697
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: the first time in a while. This ought not ruffle

698
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 1: any feathers. Always got to take a sip from the

699
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 1: chalice before we talk about Michigan and signs stealing. Bud

700
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 1: Royster hit me and said, what made the Michigan signal

701
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 1: stealing issue go away? Swept under the rug. Did Michigan

702
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,240
Speaker 1: steal first place in the playoffs? Well, what an ethics

703
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 1: boond that got dropped on us. I will tell you

704
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: I don't think they stole first place in the playoffs.

705
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: I have people in my life who disagree with me

706
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: on that, but I am my own man here. I

707
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: don't think they stole first place in the playoffs. I

708
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,200
Speaker 1: also don't think it was a nothing issue. I think

709
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: it was very significant. It is another one of those

710
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: two things can be true sort of things. As for

711
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: where the scandal went, well, nothing else popped up. You know,

712
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 1: nothing else emerged publicly. There was no follow up on

713
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: the follow up, on the follow up. The craziest part

714
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: to me about all this is Central Michigan had the

715
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 1: dude allegedly show up on their sidelines wearing recorder glasses cameras,

716
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: and they just they went silent and they never said

717
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: a word, and they just waited it out. They just

718
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 1: waited the storm out. They saw the hurricane coming. They

719
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: were in the Polygon, and they said, all right, it's

720
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: gonna suck for a little while, but we're just gonna

721
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: take shelter. And they took shelter, and the storm hoverd Hoverard,

722
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 1: all right, nothing moved on and we never really got

723
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: an answer on that. The second thing is, and this

724
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 1: is an on field I think Michigan had this happen

725
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: before the Penn State and Ohio State games to where

726
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: all all the scrutiny in the world was on them,

727
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: and they went and won both of those games. Anyway,

728
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 1: That's what removed a lot of the smoke. Had they

729
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: lost to Penn State or had they lost to Ohio State,

730
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: then I think they would have been judged really harshly,

731
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: and I don't think they would have been in the playoff,

732
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: but they didn't. They beat both of them, and there

733
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: was a world's difference in judging undefeated Michigan versus one

734
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: loss Michigan. Like, the schedule didn't line up where this

735
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: could have happened. But imagine if Michigan ended up being

736
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: Bama ended up being the team that was a one

737
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: loss conference champ. Well, Bama barely made it in in

738
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: a head to head resume like Michigan Florida State. I

739
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: think Florida State would have gone over them because I

740
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: think the committee, whether they said they would or not,

741
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 1: I think they would have taken it into account. They

742
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: weren't being left out with no losses. There was zero

743
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: chance that was happening Michigan, not Florida State. Also, the

744
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: NCAA stuff is still there, like they're being investigated. That's

745
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,399
Speaker 1: not over, it's just that you haven't heard anything about

746
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: it for a little while. I also think the Florida

747
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,919
Speaker 1: State college football playoff stuff in general took a ton

748
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: of oxygen from this story because you know as well

749
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: as I do, there is a group of people who

750
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 1: have a passing interest in football games, but they love

751
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 1: scandal and drama, and so that group was ecstatic when

752
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: the Michigan stuff happened. The next biggest story in this

753
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: sport was Florida State being screwed out of a playoff spot,

754
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 1: if you want to call it that. And so the

755
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 1: crowd that was just fixated on Michigan all of a

756
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:39,879
Speaker 1: sudden turned their attention to the Florida State drama. And

757
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,959
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that we didn't talk about it as well,

758
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: but like we talk about all of the sport, there

759
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: is one group of people who only talk about that

760
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,879
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. Well, their attention has been elsewhere. So

761
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: to answer your question, it didn't go anywhere. I don't

762
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: think it got swept under the rug. I mean, it's

763
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: it was out there, like everybody talked about it until

764
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: they were blue in the face. It's just nothing else's

765
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,439
Speaker 1: come of it yet. And we'll see, we'll wade into

766
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four to see what does come of it.

767
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 1: They're watching us in Silverton, Oregon, Bonita Springs, Florida, and Beaumont, Texas.

768
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: We appreciate you guys wherever you are. All Right, this

769
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,879
Speaker 1: is not gonna make me many friends. I'm gonna try

770
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: as much as I can to be cordial about this.

771
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: But I did not know this was gonna blow up

772
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: like it did. Okay, So Derek from North Brunswick, New

773
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: Jersey hit us earlier and said, which college football fan

774
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 1: base is a sleeping giant, as in, if their team

775
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: was consistently good, the stadium atmosphere would be surprisingly electric

776
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:43,720
Speaker 1: and they'd be insufferable online. Now, I repackaged that question

777
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 1: and I put it out there earlier, and I just

778
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: said which fan base, if their team became elite, would

779
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: be the most insufferable Close to me, that was a

780
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,399
Speaker 1: more fun question. So Derek got us talking, and then

781
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,240
Speaker 1: I fanned the flames and it turned into anno earlier today,

782
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: and I had thousands upon thousands. I think we had

783
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 1: over ten thousand replies on that. And when you combine

784
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 1: it with quote tweets and all that. So Texas A

785
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: and M won this thing by a mile. Texas A

786
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 1: and M had thousands of replies in the affirmative. And

787
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm good if Texas A and M

788
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,439
Speaker 1: ends up winning, I'm in. I am with them. I'm

789
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 1: over there, standing with them, and we're looking at the

790
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 1: rest of you because I have carried the water for

791
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: Texas A and M. Look, it's even maroon. This is

792
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: the water I carry for A ANDM. It is maroon.

793
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: That's not an accident. Well actually it kind of is,

794
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: but it worked for the purposes of the segment tonight.

795
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: I understand A ANDM as much as an outsider can

796
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: understand A ANDM. What you guys think is weird and

797
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 1: tacky and a little bit icky about A and M.

798
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 1: I just love it. I've been out there several times

799
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 1: for games. Love those folks. Hope Mike Elcho kills it

800
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,959
Speaker 1: out there. But if you don't feel like I feel

801
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: about A ANDM, oh, this is appslutely a slam dunk,

802
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: because those folks have been targeted a little bit more

803
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: than most anonymous programs and most irrelevant programs have, because

804
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: they have dare I say or shall I say, some

805
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 1: unique tradition and trappings around the program, and they have

806
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,239
Speaker 1: not forgotten they've heard you. So you better believe it.

807
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 1: You better believe it. I used watched Doubledare when I

808
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: was a wee tot, and they really took a lot

809
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 1: of pride in putting pies in people's faces. Aggie Pie,

810
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 1: don't know what it's made of. Luci can send me

811
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 1: the recipe later, Aggie Pie, in the face of the

812
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,959
Speaker 1: entire United States of America, the moment that they knock

813
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: on the door of playoff status, the moment they win

814
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: the sec Oh yeah, oh what's going to happen? And

815
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 1: so check I agree with that one. Next up, Miami,

816
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: absolutely Miami. Derek asked which fan base would be the

817
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,919
Speaker 1: most insufferable and which stadium environment would be the most electric. Now,

818
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 1: hard Rock Stadium is like a it's nothing to write

819
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 1: home about on most saturdays. The environment in hard Rock

820
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 1: Stadium is nothing to write home about on most Saturdays.

821
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: But if Miami's elite, it wouldn't be most Saturdays anymore.

822
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: In this world where Miami is a playoff contender. What

823
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 1: would happen is you would go from tens of thousands

824
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 1: in there on a great day to one of the

825
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,880
Speaker 1: hottest tickets in town. Same thing that happens with USC football.

826
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: It's just in these places you better be really good.

827
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: You better be really good. If you don't believe me

828
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 1: on that, I want you to go back to Like

829
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 1: I can't remember what year it was, seventeen or eighteen.

830
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: It was one of the Mark Rick years. They played

831
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:48,479
Speaker 1: Notre Dame smoked. Notre Dame at Home Place was sold out,

832
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,839
Speaker 1: absolutely on fire. I mean, they still tell stories in

833
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: our business, the broadcast crew that was there that night,

834
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 1: they still tell stories about how it's like going to

835
00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:00,320
Speaker 1: another planet because you're so unprepared for a Miam Miami

836
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 1: home game to feel like that. That's not the Orange

837
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,520
Speaker 1: Bowl anymore. They playing hard rock now. But it's possible.

838
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 1: You just got to be really good for it to

839
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,759
Speaker 1: be possible. And secondly, I don't think I need to

840
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 1: tell any of you, you know what, Maybe I do need

841
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 1: to tell some of the younger generation what it's like

842
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:18,040
Speaker 1: when Miami is on top of college football, what it's

843
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 1: like when Miami's in the conversation of being on top

844
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: of college football. Those folks run their mouths like no

845
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 1: other fan base in the country does. Again, I don't

846
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,800
Speaker 1: have a problem with it. But I'm not a Florida

847
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: State fan or a Florida fan. I'm not a Clemson fan.

848
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: Like I don't have to deal with them. I don't

849
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 1: have to actually face them. I don't have to recruit

850
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: against them. I just get to sit over here in

851
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 1: my little lawn chair and aside from Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday,

852
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 1: I just get to sit back in silence and watch.

853
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 1: But I know, I know folks in South Florida, No,

854
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: I know. Here's the other thing that's I think a

855
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 1: little underappreciated about Miami. You think Miami home game, and

856
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: you think a lot of open seats. What you don't

857
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:05,320
Speaker 1: realize is it's the biggest sidewalk alumni base of pretty

858
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 1: much any of the major programs out there. Now, we

859
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: love sidewalk alumni At Payte State, I run a fictitious university.

860
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 1: One hundred percent of my alumni base is sidewalk alumni.

861
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: That's translated to people who didn't go to the school

862
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: but still root for the team. So all up and

863
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: down the East Coast, from Miami to Charlotte to Roanoke, Virginia,

864
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,760
Speaker 1: to Washington, d C. To Boston to New York to Philly,

865
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: there are a lot of folks who are Miami fans.

866
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 1: Some of them have never even been there before, some

867
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 1: of them never been to a game. Most of them

868
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 1: have never been to a game. But they're mid thirties

869
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: to mid forties. They grew up in an era where

870
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 1: the you meant a lot. They now have disposable income.

871
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 1: By the way, Miami moves the needle, man, Hey, it's

872
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 1: not a bad thing they're playing Rutgers in this Bowl game,

873
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:56,480
Speaker 1: cause there are a lot of folks in the New York,

874
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: New Jersey area that are Miami fans because they don't

875
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 1: have any other college football So that Miami needle moves

876
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 1: a little bit different than a typical, you know, remote

877
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: college football type programs needle moves. What about Michigan State.

878
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,439
Speaker 1: This one probably comes out of left field for most

879
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 1: of you. Michigan State has about as uniquely active a

880
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: Twitter base, a social media base as any program out there.

881
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 1: You don't see him featured a whole lot in the

882
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 1: main spotlight of college football. Michigan's taking up a lot

883
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: of the energy in their state right now, in their conference,

884
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 1: and it's Michigan Ohio State. The country does not get

885
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 1: fixated on Michigan Michigan State, as you could expect. They

886
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: hate that, they despise it. And they just got Jonathan

887
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 1: Smith as their new head coach. And if they ever

888
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: reascend like they briefly did a couple of years ago, yeah,

889
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: that'd be over the top obnoxious. That dynamic is kind

890
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,800
Speaker 1: of like Auburn Alabama. You got one program Michigan and

891
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 1: Alabama that are big, like Tier one national brands. Then

892
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 1: you got to know other program whose brand is a

893
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:06,279
Speaker 1: lot more regional in nature. But they always know, if

894
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: we fulfill our obligation and if we maximize our potential,

895
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,359
Speaker 1: we're good enough to compete. And Auburn has shown that

896
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: against Alabama, and Michigan has shown that, or Michigan State's

897
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 1: shown that against Michigan, and the fan bases act accordingly.

898
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:24,399
Speaker 1: So Yeah, and I've been I've been up there when

899
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: they beat Michigan Man. Yeah, stadium, stadium environment, check. I

900
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: buy that obnoxious fan base online if they went check,

901
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 1: I buy that. The one I don't buy. But so

902
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 1: many of you suggested its Tennessee. A lot of you

903
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: said Tennessee. A lot of you said Tennessee folks are

904
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,479
Speaker 1: the most obnoxious, and if they ever become a legit

905
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:47,279
Speaker 1: national championship contender, this would be insufferable. I may have

906
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: to take a break from the sport. And I just

907
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:52,960
Speaker 1: don't think I'm in a good enough position to talk

908
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 1: about this. I don't think it's fair, you know. I,

909
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: for example, I'm going to tell the story one more time,

910
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 1: aren't I coling? Yeah? I participated in such activities as

911
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 1: carrying a goalpost out in Niland Stadium last year. I

912
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 1: participated in taking video of chunks of sod that were

913
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: pulled right up out of the ground when we went

914
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 1: back in the stadium after the Bama game to do

915
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: our postgame hit on CBS. Oh. I love Tennessee. I

916
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: love it over there. I didn't grow up here. I

917
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,800
Speaker 1: grew up down in Georgia. Everybody down there hates Tennessee.

918
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 1: Even the folks across the river hate Tennessee. Well, I

919
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,799
Speaker 1: got no problem with Tennessee. I am not a huge

920
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 1: fan of the song Rocky Top, and I've warned you

921
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: guys that whenever they do emerge back on the national

922
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: scene and that song is constantly blasted into the college

923
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 1: football public's here, there are a lot of people who

924
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 1: are indifferent on Tennessee that will grow to hate them

925
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 1: just because of how consistently they play that song, which

926
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,839
Speaker 1: again is not in my top fifty either. So like

927
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 1: Rocky Top can be an assault on the census when

928
00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: Tennessee's good, I just don't feel the way about them

929
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: that you guys do. A lot of You had a

930
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 1: lot of animosity in your hearts when you type this

931
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: earlier today. I know because some of the corresponding language

932
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 1: that you included with Tennessee is not fit for air.

933
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: It's a family friendly show, and those were not family

934
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 1: friendly replies. Now, this last one here, this one came

935
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,840
Speaker 1: out of nowhere. You could have given me like twenty guesses,

936
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 1: I would not have mentioned this program. So again, we're

937
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,920
Speaker 1: looking for fan base that would be totally obnoxious, stadium

938
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 1: environment that would be surprisingly elite if the team was

939
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 1: in the national scene. Maryland, Maryland. But the more I dug,

940
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,879
Speaker 1: the more I saw people mentioned Maryland, so I gotta

941
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 1: go word of mouth on this. I have it on

942
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: semi good authority that back when Maryland was good and

943
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 1: they were still in the ACC, their folks were some

944
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 1: of the most insufferable to deal with in the Frisian era.

945
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 1: There were some of the most insufferable to deal with

946
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 1: in the entire conference. I have no idea if this

947
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 1: is true. Okay, back then, my only interaction with Maryland

948
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 1: football was the dude in wedding crashers who yelled crab

949
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,439
Speaker 1: cakes and football. That's what Maryland does. That's it. That's

950
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 1: all I knew about Maryland and our buddy Tani who

951
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: used to work here. Those are the only things I

952
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 1: know about Maryland. But apparently some of you in the

953
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,160
Speaker 1: past were rubbed the wrong way and the last thing

954
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: you want in this world is Maryland to re emerge

955
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 1: as a national player. So I don't know if I

956
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: can take your word for it, but that's all I

957
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 1: have to go on. Because Maryland was mentioned like twenty times,

958
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 1: and I thought, do they get we're talking about football? Like,

959
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: I don't know where this is coming from. So I mean,

960
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:43,799
Speaker 1: in the name of Scott van Pelt, I'm moving on.

961
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,359
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna dunk on a turp that I've never

962
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 1: met before. I can't do that. Bold prediction time, not

963
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:55,400
Speaker 1: futuristic bold predictions. No, no, no, those are a crapshoot. No.

964
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 1: What we like to do on this show is we

965
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: like to take ourselves out of the spotlight. We like

966
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: to let you make the Bowl of Prediction in August

967
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: and we just get to sit here in December and

968
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: talk about who was right and who was wrong. The

969
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 1: first one has to do with the Heisman, and it

970
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:17,480
Speaker 1: was from Columbus Georgia, our buddy Chuck Williams. Actually he

971
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 1: said bo Nicks gonna be a Heisman finalist. But see

972
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:24,359
Speaker 1: that's not all Chuck said. He said bo Nicks and

973
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 1: Peyton Thorn will both be Heisman finalist. Friends, humbly, respectfully,

974
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 1: there was never a time in the preseason, during the season,

975
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:41,240
Speaker 1: or up until this moment where Peyton Thorn and Heisman

976
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,440
Speaker 1: Trophy were going to be mentioned in the same breath.

977
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 1: Bo Nicks had no problem with him, and for the

978
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,880
Speaker 1: best interest to Chuck, I wish you would have stoped there.

979
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: But Peyton Thorn was not the best quarterback in his

980
00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 1: own State Peyton Thorn. For the record, that should be

981
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: noted is is Hugh Freeze's guy. Apparently he is going

982
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,360
Speaker 1: to be the quarterback fifteen to nine touchdown to interception

983
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,960
Speaker 1: ratio last year. He's the one they're gonna ride with.

984
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 1: Hugh Freeze knows more than I do. I think a

985
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 1: lot of what they're doing down there is kind of,

986
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:17,280
Speaker 1: you know, taking the nil resources that would be dedicated

987
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:20,920
Speaker 1: towards a quarterback, and they're just kind of distributing that elsewhere.

988
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,320
Speaker 1: It's why Auburn's gonna make noise on signing day tomorrow.

989
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: By the way, you didn't hear it from me. Next up,

990
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:31,240
Speaker 1: Daniel said, Nebraska Matt Rule will have the best record

991
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,960
Speaker 1: among teams with first year head coaches. I was skeptical

992
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:38,239
Speaker 1: of this, and I was right to be skeptical. Jeff

993
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: Bram went to Louisville and went ten and three. Matt

994
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: Ruhle went to Nebraska and went five and seven, and

995
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: it's better than rules. First year is elsewhere. We all

996
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 1: know year one has traditionally been a very rocky start

997
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,439
Speaker 1: out of the gate at various places for Matt Rule.

998
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 1: So five and seven wasn't terrible, and he just went

999
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: and got Dylan Royola. So he's got his quarterback and

1000
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,680
Speaker 1: they got a little lot of energy up there right now.

1001
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:07,000
Speaker 1: But Jeff Brohm went to the ACC championship game in

1002
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 1: year one at Louisville. So yeah, that one was not

1003
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,800
Speaker 1: all that close. How about this next one. This is tough.

1004
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a tough scene. Oh the Dorrito

1005
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:24,439
Speaker 1: bandit from Greenville, South Carolina, famous in those parts. He said, oh,

1006
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: this is tough. Both Michigan and Alabama will miss the playoffs. Well,

1007
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: Michigan and Alabama missed the Sugar Bowl. The problem is

1008
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 1: they're playing in the other semi final game. I don't

1009
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:37,840
Speaker 1: know what more we can say. I tried to get

1010
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 1: licensing for the price is right, boom boom, boom boom.

1011
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:43,880
Speaker 1: We couldn't get it, So you have to settle for that.

1012
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:48,560
Speaker 1: This this was This was rough. This is rough. But

1013
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 1: if you're gonna if you're gonna miss miss bad, and

1014
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:53,719
Speaker 1: this is missing bad. Not only do they make it,

1015
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 1: they face each other in the playoff. Now, this next

1016
00:54:56,560 --> 00:55:00,279
Speaker 1: one was. This next one's a perfect example of how

1017
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 1: bold predictions should be handled. The entire thing looks like

1018
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:07,600
Speaker 1: one of Bradley's t shirts. The lettering is in Japanese.

1019
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 1: I have no clue what this says, but the prediction

1020
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 1: was College football playoff teams will be from four different

1021
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:19,320
Speaker 1: conferences Washington Pac twelve, Rest In Peace, Texas Big twelve,

1022
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: Bama SEC, Michigan Big ten, and Florida State was fifth

1023
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 1: and they're from the ACC. So we had perfect distribution

1024
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 1: amongst the Power five conferences. Excellent prediction. Your name was

1025
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,239
Speaker 1: written in Japanese. I have no clue who you are,

1026
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:40,040
Speaker 1: but excellent job. And I don't think that was all

1027
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 1: that bold, but it was bold enough to make it

1028
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: on the show apparently. So that's how Bold Predictions went.

1029
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 1: Chapter two of our revisiting Bold Predictions. Okay, we got

00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: has to say, well, Christmas will come next year because

1038
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,800
Speaker 1: you were irresponsibly betting money that you weren't supposed to

1039
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: be betting because you didn't have it to bet. But

1040
