Let's talk about FSU 72 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: and LSU. They played this game on one Sunday evening 73 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: and it was a close one. It was a close 74 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: so twenty four to twenty three, Florida State gets the dub. 75 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: Here's what went down. LSU's Jaden Daniels connected with Jerre 76 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: Jenkins in the back of the end zone on the 77 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: final play of the game to set up an extra 78 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: point that clearly was gonna tie it at twenty four 79 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: a piece. For the second time in the game, LSU 80 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: had a kickblocked the extra point in this case that 81 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: would have tied it and sent it to overtime. Florida 82 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: State wins by a twenty four to twenty three score. 83 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: Is a big deal. What a wild finish to this game, Dan. 84 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: As you might expect given the nature of how LSU lost, 85 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: there was a lot of hand ringing after the fact. 86 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: This I think is interesting. On top of the fact 87 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,119 Speaker 1: that because they had this one extra point blocked, because 88 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: they had a kickblock earlier in the game, because they 89 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: had two off the punts at various points throughout the game. 90 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: Special teams definitely came into focus for all the wrong 91 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: reasons for LSU under the new Brian Kelly regime. We 92 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: both watched this game. Jade Daniels did get the start. 93 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: He was pretty much the entire offense, which is very 94 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: typical for Brian Kelly. Yeah, Jane Daniels two nine and 95 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: two touchdowns through the air, had one fourteen on the ground. 96 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: LSU faced a lot of pressure from Florida State's defensive line. 97 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: Jared Vers, my guy, Jared Vers, I love him, made 98 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: a big impact in this game. For the knowles. What'd 99 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: you think here? What was your takeaway from this game? Okay? 100 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: One, Jade Daniels is the starting quarterback for LSU. Correct 101 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 2: did not know that definitively going into I guess the 102 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: week as a whole, but into the game obviously we 103 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 2: knew pretty quickly in the lead up that it was 104 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: going to be Jade and Daniels. A lot of the 105 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: issues that we were told or had been reported about 106 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 2: LSU's offensive line taking a significant step forward from where 107 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: they were last year with their struggles, but adding promising 108 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 2: youth still sort of came to bear still similar issues 109 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 2: for LSU upfront. So let's start with LSU because I 110 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: suppose they're the bigger story with the new high profile 111 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 2: head coach. Your guy Brian Kelly Jane Daniels did an 112 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 2: admirable job trying to run for his life and picking 113 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 2: up yardage and improvising, especially i mean early on late 114 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 2: in the game, obviously down a couple scores late and 115 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: driving LSU down the field and as you said, sort 116 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 2: of being the offense existing as the offense. Keisham Boutet 117 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: was not involved until late. I'm sure Florida State paid 118 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: a ton of attention to him. And yeah, your guy 119 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: Noah Kane couldn't get really going on the ground for LSC. 120 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: Transfer from your guy. I'm my guy. I'm a Keevon 121 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: Lee guy. You know that. And it was a. 122 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 2: Master class in having a blind spot. And I'd seen 123 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 2: somewhere on social media that the first thing that Bill 124 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: Parcels did in taking over a floundering franchise in the NFL, 125 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: let's get special teams right. If you fix special teams, 126 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: and you button things up and you can change field position, 127 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 2: and you can kick some field goals and some extra points. 128 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 2: You're already ahead of the game. Yeah, And LSU Special teams. 129 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: It was what Malik neighbors who was muffing situations in 130 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: the punt return game. Two muffed punts, a blocked field goal, 131 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: and obviously the game losing would have been a game 132 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: tying extra point when LSU furiously drove down the field. 133 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 2: They miss that or they get it blocked. They just 134 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: the kick protection team was rough. So a lot to 135 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: go back to the drawing board for LSU in terms 136 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: of attention to detail. Not a great reflection on Brian 137 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: Kelly because he comes in as this like professional head coach, 138 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 2: right that he is the guy who is going to 139 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 2: come in with all of ed Orizon's shortcomings and attention 140 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: to detail and losing the culture of the team. Brian, 141 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 2: that guy who is just single minded and is going 142 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 2: to write that ship. Special Teams is a nightmare on 143 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: the other side, unless you want to jump in with 144 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,239 Speaker 2: some LSU takes. 145 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: No, I just think it'll be it'll be interesting to 146 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: see how this unfolds. Because you lose like this and 147 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: especially when you've got this high profile coaching move in 148 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: the off season. We'll see how it goes. I mean, 149 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: it's not an easy scanty press we will for LSU, right, 150 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: and with the amount of money he's being paid and 151 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: the pressure he is under, you could see things going 152 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: sideways if there are a few more instances like this. 153 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: I mean, folks made a lot about Kaishawn Bhet and 154 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: some others scrubbing all references to LSU and their social media. 155 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: Are they training? Wow, they're not transferring. Everyone pumped the 156 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: brakes a little bit. But you could see things like 157 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: I compared it to you and I don't know if 158 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: you get the reference or not, but the don't worry 159 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: Darling's situation going on now in pop culture, you can 160 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: see things going like very sideways with Brian Kelly, especially 161 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: given the fact that this is not a guy who 162 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: comfortably takes accountability for things going wrong. He's very good 163 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: at deflecting. That's what he's good at. But we'll just 164 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: see if things improve, especially against the SEC West schedule. Yeah, 165 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: things could get kind of dicey if we do not 166 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: see a more buttoning up of at least special teams 167 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: for LSU. 168 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 2: By the way, what Brian Kelly's making salary wise, to me, 169 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 2: has no bearing on this. Any high profile coach LSU 170 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 2: would have gone out and gotten would have commanded between 171 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 2: eight and ten million dollars, and Brian Kelly just happens 172 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: to be that guy. So defensively, they played pretty well. 173 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: Jordan Travis, if we can talk about the Knowles for 174 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: a second. Let's talk about though. Let's talk about the Knowles. 175 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: I will save some of my comments around Florida State 176 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 2: and Jordan Travis for the next portion of. 177 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: The show where we jump to conclusions. But let me 178 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: just say that the Florida State offense looked quick, It 179 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: looked on time. The line, which has gotten a ton 180 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: of criticism over the last decade, now the line held 181 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: up pretty well despite the fact that LS was trying 182 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: to bring some pressure. Yeah, and I was probably very 183 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: wrong about Jordan Travis. Jordan Travis in this game looked awesome. 184 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: He missed like one pass in the third quarter. The 185 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: rest of it, he knew what to do every time 186 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: he got the ball. He was quick, he was efficient, 187 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: and he was the reason that I came away from 188 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: this game feeling so optimistic about Florida State moving forward, 189 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: he looked really good to me. 190 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, offensive line got a full S satisfactory grade. 191 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: That's not an issue. 192 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: Look, Florida State tried to lose this game. When you 193 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 2: let a team march down, I don't know how much 194 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 2: time was left when they were up twenty four to ten. 195 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,599 Speaker 2: You can tell me. You can look at four and 196 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 2: a half minutes up two touchdowns. That's not great, that's 197 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: not ideal when your clunkers. The way that your defense 198 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 2: sort of changed things up and went more prevent at 199 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 2: the end of the game from winning a lot of 200 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: the time. So you're right about Jordan Travis, and he 201 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 2: dealt with drops that were not fully his fault. Of course, 202 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 2: the offensive line has certainly got better. Couldn't really run 203 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: the ball Florida State. Neither one of these teams ran 204 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: the ball tremendously well. But that's again not on him necessarily. Yeah, 205 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 2: he's a gamer. For him, it's also going to be 206 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: a health thing. It's just can he stay healthy for 207 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 2: twelve games? Can he avoid contact? Can he slide? Can 208 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: he get out of bounds? Can he put himself and 209 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: the offense in a position to shine all year long? 210 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: As Florida State is looking to go to a bowl game. 211 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 2: That's the first step on the journey back to respectability 212 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 2: for the Knoles. And defensively, look on all three levels, 213 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 2: guys are making place. Absolutely, this is a team that 214 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 2: is a much more well oiled machine than the LSU 215 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 2: program at the moment. And it showed it was you know, 216 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,559 Speaker 2: guys in the secondary, the linebackers, especially that front, which 217 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 2: honestly it took a pretty good step forward last year. 218 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 2: But Jared Verse, who you're great dane of a defensive end. 219 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: I love him. 220 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: He's just a playmaker, is an absolute monster and should 221 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 2: be against basically every single acc offensive line that the 222 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 2: Knowles face. And when you have that kind of gravitational 223 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: weapon on the line, I don't know who that the 224 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 2: apt comparison will be. If you look nationally at some 225 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: of the better edge rushers we've seen in the past 226 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: few years, it changes the calculus for your defense and 227 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, the interior of your line gets 228 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: some more opportunities. You don't have to blitz as much, 229 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: you can keep guys back in coverage, and so it's 230 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 2: that's why these guys are so coveted in the portal 231 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 2: and on the recruiting trail. And so if Jared versus 232 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 2: the next version of in this case Jermaine Johnson for 233 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 2: Florida State, what an enormous win for the Knowles moving forward. 234 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: And so they won their clunker because that fourth quarter 235 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: you'd like to get some of those moments back. They 236 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 2: won their clunker to and zero onward. 237 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 1: Yep, and they've got a bye week now after playing 238 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: week zero in Week one. We've said it before, I'm 239 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: sure we'll say it again. It is a tough schedule. 240 00:12:55,480 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: But if they look this good, even in time of despair, 241 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: call it a clunker. A clunker against LC where you 242 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: come out as the victor is a pretty good deal. Yeah. 243 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: So if they look this part, let's say, moving forward, 244 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: making a bowl is not going to be a problem. 245 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: The version of the team that we saw on Sunday, 246 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: despite the fact that fourth quarter some wards, despite the 247 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: fact that you know, couldn't run the ball, whatever, this 248 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: version of this team is making a bowl probably before 249 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 1: the end of October. 250 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: Can I put on my very small childhood Florida State 251 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,839 Speaker 2: fandom garnet and gold hat for a moment? 252 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: Sure? Here shout out Peter warrick. 253 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 2: Of course, here's who Florida State has coming up. Ty 254 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: team who lost to Syracuse, team who lost to Rutgers, 255 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 2: team who may not have their starting quarterback, team who 256 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 2: tried to actively lose to East Carolina, team who was 257 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: weirdly close to Georgia Tech late Georgia Tech itself, Miami 258 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 2: with a new coach who wants to throw it less 259 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 2: with Tyler vanday, okay, Syracuse who I'm just on that 260 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 2: train year coach, and what we think will be a 261 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 2: good Florida team who could have lost very easily to Utah. 262 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 2: So you say tough schedule, I put on my gard 263 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: in gold glasses. I see opportunity. 264 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: Tie and that is an opportunity. Sorry, thank you, Ryan Gosling. 265 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: Hold that thought. The other other the only other point, 266 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: excuse me that I wanted to bring up about Elisu 267 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: Mason Smith along the line torn acl Yeah, man out 268 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: for the year, which is a bummer for the Bayu Bengals. 269 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Clemson and Georgia Tech, though. Let's this 270 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: game played on Labor Day, Monday evening. Forty one to 271 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: ten is the final score if you are passing through. 272 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: If you did not watch this game, You'll see forty 273 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: one to ten and say that's about right for what 274 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: it's worth. I had Georgia Tech under thirteen and a 275 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: half total team points, and I felt wonderful about that, 276 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: wonderful about that beat when I saw it, and it 277 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: ended up cashing. So thank you, Georgia Tech. The bigger point, though, 278 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: if you dug in, if you watch this game, even 279 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: if you go back and rewatch, is that this was 280 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: a seven point game until about a minute left in 281 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: the third quarter. Dan, Yeah, And to that end, it's 282 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: not like we expected Georgia Tech to be great on offense, 283 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: and certainly they were not two of ten on third 284 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: downs going up against the defense that might be the 285 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: best in college football. They were overmatched, surely overmatched along 286 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: the line, But seventeen to ten laid the third quarter 287 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: against Georgia Tech. Given the turnover that Clemson had on 288 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: offense with their coordinator leaving to take over at Virginia, 289 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: given some of the outstanding questions about DJU, some of 290 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: the issues that they had along their offensive line last season, like, 291 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if we really got answers to any 292 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: of those questions, Dan. In Week one, Clemson started off, 293 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: I thought in a bit of a stagnant state. They 294 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: warmed up later, but I did not necessarily come away 295 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: from from this one feeling any higher degree of confidence 296 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: with the Clemson Tigers as they go into the rest 297 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: of their schedule in week two and beyond. 298 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: Did you, Yeah, I mean, anytime you have that defense, 299 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 2: And look, they won ten games with the Bowl last 300 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: year with this very similar defense, grand different coordinator, and 301 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 2: there's changes on that staff. But I don't know what's 302 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: changed between last week and this week in terms of 303 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 2: how we're evaluating Clemson, unless from what you saw from 304 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 2: Caid Club, Nick late Boy gives you reason to believe that. 305 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: You know he'll be taking over in October or something 306 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 2: like that and shine in a way that DJU doesn't regularly. 307 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, watching this game. 308 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 2: So Clemson gets a punt block that sets up they 309 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 2: get to like the six yard line, and they need 310 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 2: all four downs to put it in with out passing 311 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 2: the ball. They didn't trust DJU in the goal line 312 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 2: to throw it there. He looked better at times, but 313 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 2: it's Georgia Tech. He looked better. They needed four attempts 314 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 2: to run it in. They ran it in with Will 315 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 2: Shipley on fourth down. I believe on that drive to 316 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 2: set up that touchdown. 317 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 1: They tried it. 318 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 2: Seemed like they tried running it a good amount with DJU, 319 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: which Game one against a team that you're supposed to 320 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 2: be much better than you, probably wouldn't put him in 321 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 2: harm's way As a quarterback. I know he's big and 322 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 2: can handle hits. Certainly looked better at times, hit throws 323 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 2: down the field, looked more confident more often, but at 324 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 2: the same time, and some bigger third downs looked a 325 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: little bit lost. And Georgia Tech played some good defense, 326 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 2: and there were tight windows that he probably should have 327 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: confidently thrown into more often than he did. He took 328 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 2: a couple sacks there, which is better than interceptions. 329 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,719 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 330 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: They couldn't really run the ball all that consistently against 331 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: Georgia Tech, and Tech moved the ball. 332 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: They made mistakes. 333 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 2: They were never going to really score twenty thirty points 334 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 2: against Clemson, probably, but you mentioned the offensive coordinator and 335 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 2: Tony Elliott leaving. I scored what thirteen fourteen points against 336 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: Georgia Tech last year, so forty one is an improvement. 337 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: Forty one is better than that. 338 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 2: I'm just you know what I came away with my 339 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 2: general conclusion, which I know we're gonna get to a 340 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 2: conclusion segment of this show, was they're gonna win a 341 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: bunch of games. And then if they're counting on DJU 342 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 2: to carry them against a really good team in a 343 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: big ACC spot, an ACC championship game, a big Bowl game, 344 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 2: a playoff game, whatever, they're gonna get drilled. They're absolutely 345 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 2: not going to be able to count on him to 346 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 2: lead this team downfield consistently against Georgia, Ohio State, Alabama, whoever. 347 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 2: If that's the situation they find himself and there is 348 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 2: a definitive ceiling to what they are offensively with dj. 349 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: They're not going to get drilled by anybody because of 350 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: their defense. Their defense is really good. But I think 351 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: the larger point that they can count on him the 352 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 1: care of the offense is very valid. And what I 353 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: would like to see from people who go through the 354 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 1: play by play data is whether or not this was 355 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: the situation of DJU being tardy with the football not 356 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: getting it out on time, or if guys were just covered, 357 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: because there were plenty of replays that they showed in 358 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: that game, nobody was open, so we need to wait 359 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: and see get a little bit more data on perhaps 360 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 1: how DJU has progressed in the off season. We did 361 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: see kid Clubnick. We did see kid Clubnick now, for 362 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: whatever it's worth, and for whatever you make of our 363 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: friends over at PFF. In his six garbage time passes, 364 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: kid Clubnick was the highest rated offensive player on the 365 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: Clemton offense. He's definitely a different kind of player. He's 366 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: a little bit more mobile. He seemed, at least in 367 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: very limited action, confident running the offense. Again, limited sample size, 368 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: can't take it purely at phase value, but there was 369 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: plenty of commentary during the game talking about kid Clubnick. 370 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: Perhaps more folks wanting to join me on the club level. 371 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: If you'd like to join the club level level, excuse 372 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: me forballers dot com is where you can go. We 373 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: can talk about it. Maybe we'll start a channel and 374 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 1: discord where we can just be be, you know, out 375 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: there and open about being on the club level. I 376 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: am on the record with I am on the club level. 377 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: I'm ready for kid Klubnick. But you know, he came in. 378 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: It's at least good to have a capable backup. That 379 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: was not something that Clemson necessarily had a whole lot 380 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: of last season, so at least to have some depth 381 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: there at the quarterback position is definitely a good thing 382 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: for Dabo Sweeney. 383 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 2: But he made more plays. To be clear, Like, I 384 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: what I try to judge a quarterback on when I 385 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: watch is what is your fifth best throw of the 386 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 2: game look like? What does your seventh best throw of 387 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: the game look like? And djus he's going deeper in 388 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 2: terms of his fourth, fifth, sixth best throw over the 389 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 2: course of a game is downfield and confident and pretty good. 390 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 2: Still not crazy successful relative to where Clemson has been 391 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 2: where they expect to be. I just it's hard to 392 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 2: see them as a top twenty offense in the nation. 393 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 2: It's hard to see them as a top thirty offense 394 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 2: at times in the nation, which given their goals, once again, 395 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 2: that's not good enough. 396 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: No, well, look, the offensive line faced pressure even from 397 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech from blowly Georgia Tech face pressure, and kid 398 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 1: Klubnik I think is more mobility. And so if this 399 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: is a recurring theme where teams bring pressure, how does 400 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: DJU deal with that? Dealt okay with you? Last night? 401 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: I do think club Nick's a little bit more mobile. 402 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: We're athletic, as they said, As Dusty said. 403 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 2: On the broadcast, well yes and no. I mean he's 404 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 2: definitely smaller. DJ can move and they call, you know, 405 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 2: set runs for him, and you know he was impressive 406 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 2: on the ground running the ball. So in a number 407 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 2: of ways, it's probably better to be that size and 408 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 2: be able to rush for seven yards on thirty three. 409 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 2: But man, I don't know, it's game one. A lot 410 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: to improve upon. But you know, if you're winning your 411 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 2: clunker forty one to ten, you know how much how 412 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 2: many shells can I launch at you? 413 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: Shall we play the game? Sure it would be this 414 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: map that you would put on the floor and would 415 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: have different conclusions that you could jump out two Dan, 416 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,919 Speaker 1: it's our jump the conclusions game. Time for you and 417 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: I to look at all the action in week zero 418 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: in week one and jump to some way too early conclusions. 419 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: I've got a handful in front of me. I know 420 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: you've got a handful in front of you as well. 421 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: I think you're also thinking about it a little bit 422 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: longer term, in that not just conclusions for this season, 423 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: but perhaps serie reminders that you'd like to set in 424 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 1: advance of the twenty twenty three season. Things that you've 425 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: seen already after one and a half weeks of college 426 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: football action that you just want to remind yourself of 427 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: a year from now. 428 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 2: Well, it's more just how we look ahead to week one. 429 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 2: It's very challenging. I mean, the main reminder is do 430 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 2: you have a new coach. Is he in a spot 431 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 2: where he is going to take on with his new 432 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 2: team a huge situation like I don't know a Georgia, 433 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 2: a Utah, a Florida State, any of those types of teams. 434 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: Uh, Pump, pump some breaks, s pump some breaks on 435 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: how concept it's except if it's Billionnapier. 436 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 2: Again, I said, Utah and Florida and Billion Napier did 437 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: a good chunk of things to lose that game. 438 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: There was the lost one. Though they did win. 439 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 2: The loss was very much on a clean plate in 440 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 2: front of them on the tape. 441 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: So you've been doing this thing all weekend and I 442 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: don't really like it. I don't really like it because 443 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: we talk about a team winning and you're like, God, 444 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: but they tried to lose. Did they lose? Did Florida lose? 445 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 2: They went ahead with a minute and a half left, 446 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 2: They they tightened up on defense in the red zone, 447 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 2: as Utah themselves didn't do much in the red zone. 448 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 2: I'm just saying they won their clunkers, which is a 449 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 2: great thing against a very good team with playoff expectations 450 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 2: and major conference major quote unquote conference championship expectations in Utah. 451 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 1: God, it hurts as a peck Buell fan. I'm not 452 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: gonna lie. It hurts this but these pastime that was 453 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: an own goal, but I appreciate it. 454 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but there were there were There was a 455 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 2: lot to be desired from this Florida defense, Uh, getting 456 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 2: pushed around a good amount. Utah's own defense did a 457 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 2: good job against Anthony Richardson a lot of the time. 458 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 1: They did win. No, Florida did win that game. 459 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 2: They did win, and that's great. Win your games when 460 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: your clunkers, when your pseudo clunkers whatever. I'm just saying 461 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 2: a loss was on the table. Florida didn't win that game, 462 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 2: twenty eight to fourteen. That's what I'm saying. Okay, So 463 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: you asked me for three to five conclusions to jump to, Yes. 464 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: Jump to them, jump to them. You can jump to 465 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: them whatever. I have a dozen. It Okay, yeah, give me, 466 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: give me one, all right. 467 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 2: I'm buying more James Madison stock. Give me those Dukes. 468 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: Tie. 469 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 2: That's where we're starting at the top. Who's stopping these dukes. 470 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: They have a quarterback, they've got winning DNA. 471 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:19,239 Speaker 1: Moving on up. 472 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, I'm telling you right now, early September 473 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 2: go jmw Okay, so we'll go more. 474 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: In detail about some other teams. Okay, I'm buying early. 475 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 2: I'm buying down on Utah even though I just don't 476 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: think the bag twelve is much in the way of 477 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 2: defensive resistance, and I think they're still going to win 478 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 2: a lot of games and end up in a really 479 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: nice postseason spot. So I know, you know, the way 480 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 2: that they lost and their red zone opportunities. I'm my 481 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 2: conclusion with Utah is they're just as good as I 482 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 2: thought they were last week, and it's going to get easier. 483 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: So that's a conclusion on the Utes, I'm still with them. 484 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: If not buy scooping up some stock is maybe perhaps 485 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 2: some people are selling on on the Utes. I'm buying 486 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 2: more Michigan stock based off are you one. I'm buying 487 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 2: more Michigan stock because it's becoming clearer and clearer to 488 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 2: me that the cade McNamara experiment is just that, it 489 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 2: is just an experiment, and it is just an emotion 490 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 2: exercise to get JJ McCarthy healthier and in there and saying, well, 491 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 2: we gave Kate a shot, and it just seems like 492 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 2: that's the road we're heading down. And with how well 493 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: he looked to be running that offense and me forgetting 494 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 2: a couple of names on that offense, Oh. 495 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's still there. I am Roman Wilson. 496 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 2: I had donavand evers, I think it was Colorado State 497 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 2: new coach, whatever. But Michigan looked like an excellent team 498 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 2: should look like in week one, as a well oiled 499 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: machine coming off of a playoff experience. And that's all 500 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 2: I just wanted that. I wanted to look like they 501 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: should have looked. And so I'm not fully stocking up. 502 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 2: I'm not stuffing my pantry full of Michigan stock. But 503 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 2: I've made more peace with what I think they're trying 504 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 2: to do and getting JJ McCarthy and is that full 505 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: time guy? So okay, and that is something that is 506 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 2: a direction I'm going with Michigan. 507 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: Okay. By the way, your guy Todd Senttio, the starting 508 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: quarterback for James Madison. I just wanted to double check, 509 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: but yeah, reference the PFF stat earlier Todd Santio the 510 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: highest graded passer through UH to one and a half seas. 511 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying to say, in all of college football whatever, 512 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: it's yeah, somebody has eighty dollars. I've got Florida State 513 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: beating Clemson and going ten and two. 514 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 2: Florida State is going to beat Clemson and go ten 515 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 2: and two based on the conclusion you're drawing on their 516 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 2: two yes games. 517 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: If we are jumping to very quick conclusions, I am 518 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: hitching my wagon to Florida State. We've been waiting for 519 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: this moment. We've been waiting for this team to feel 520 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: like it turns a corner at some point under Mike 521 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: Norvel got off to a rocky start in twenty twenty 522 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: with some off field stuff last season a start from hell, 523 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 1: pulled together nicely down the stretch, and now off to 524 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 1: a two and zero start here to start the season. 525 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: They beat Duquine week one week zero, excuse me, whatever, 526 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: But the LSU win, try as they might to lose 527 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: in spots, still comes out as a dub on the 528 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: final tally sheet. I thought Jordan Travis looked awesome, and 529 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to take this time to issue a bit 530 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: of a mia culpa because I'm ready. 531 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: Hold on, hold on, let me set up straight, crack 532 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: my neck, because I told you continue. 533 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: It could be that ty was just uninformed, yeah, underinformed, 534 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: whatever the word is on Jordan Travis. It could be 535 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: that I was asleep at the wheel here and he 536 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: looked really good to me, Dan, he looked really good 537 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: to me. Like I said, I counted one pass maybe 538 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: two passes that were really bad. Everything else seemed like 539 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: it was confident. It was on time. He knew what 540 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: he was doing. He wasn't dilly dialing around back there. 541 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: He's obviously mobile, a true dual threat, as some say, 542 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: in this offense, and I think that is the kind 543 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: of system, if executed well, that you need to beat 544 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: to Clemson because of their speed along the front seven 545 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: and especially their talent along that defensive line. You need 546 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: a guy who can move right. Tyler van Dyke is good, 547 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: but Tyler van Dyke as compared to Jordan Travis, definitely 548 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: more of a statue. Jordan Travis can move, He can 549 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: get outside the pocket, This is a guy that you know, 550 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: he's been in the system for a couple of years. 551 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: He knows what he's doing, and I thought it showed 552 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: so for my money and because of the schedule, that 553 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: definitely looked harder two weeks ago than it does now. 554 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: I feel really good about Florida State and especially their 555 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: chances of getting one over on Clemson. So mark me 556 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: down now, way too early. Florida State ten and two 557 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: beating Clemson. 558 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 2: Can give you. You know, after the State of the Union, 559 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,239 Speaker 2: you have the like counterpoint from the other party they 560 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: select somebody. I'm not a Florida State fan. I can 561 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 2: just through radioactive waves floating through the ether of people 562 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 2: listening to that and projecting those waves into the I 563 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 2: don't know if that's how radioactive waves were. I can 564 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 2: hear Florida State fans out loud saying, ty, we appreciate 565 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 2: your optimism and your enthusiasm. That's it's awesome. You are 566 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 2: high on some of the guys that we ourselves are 567 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 2: high on. But Mike Norvelle is sort of Sunshine State 568 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 2: James Franklin at the end of games like, we hear you, 569 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 2: But we have a coach who is not against losing 570 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: winnable games in the way he conducts his in game 571 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 2: strategy thinking. So that's the problem is that Florida State 572 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 2: could appear to be a ten and two team ish 573 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: for stretches of games and like, oh, they're up twenty 574 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 2: three to fourteen with six minutes left. 575 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: There's two scores. They've been playing well on both sides 576 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: of I'm sorry what happened? I'm sorry? How do they 577 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: lose this game? There is a good amount. 578 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,719 Speaker 2: Of sample size evidence that Florida State is willing to 579 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 2: lose winnable games. 580 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: How old do you think Mike Norvella? Is you think 581 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: he is older younger than me? 582 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 2: No, I think he is a little bit older than you. 583 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 2: I think he prematurely grade. So I don't know. 584 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: Is he forty one? He's a month a month older 585 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: than me? 586 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: Oh my god, okay, forty seven years old. He's older 587 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: than I thought. He's a month older than you. Okay, yeah, 588 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 2: So somewhere in there. 589 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: How dare you be smirch the silver fox that is 590 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: Mike norvel How dare you? Yeah? How dare you? I think? Yeah? 591 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: I think they are a seven to five ish, eight 592 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: and four ish team. Oh, They're way better than that. 593 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 2: Come on, way better as telling you, Ty, they will 594 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 2: lose multiple winnable games. They already tried. 595 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: Ty. 596 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: They're on the record, is trying to lose a winnable 597 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: game to baby, Let's go there on the record. 598 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: Okay, here's my other one. Here's my other going, keep going. 599 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: My other one is really just a pat on the back. 600 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: I was right about Ohio State, I was right about 601 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: High State. I picked him the win it all. I 602 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: am not backing down. If anything, I'm doubling down. Okay, 603 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: the game that we saw clunker factor high. In that 604 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: game against Notre Dame. They were not firing on all cylinders. 605 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: They were without Jackson Smith and Jigbuy has a hamstring thing. 606 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: Apparently Mike is a game or two. They were also 607 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: without Julian Fleming, who had some shoulder issues in fall camp. 608 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: You know, I think that definitely affected CJ. Stroud a 609 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: little bit. He also went up against I think a 610 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: pretty good defense a Notre Dame, so there were moments 611 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: in that game where he did not look accurate. There 612 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: were moments in that game where they had to adjust, 613 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: and I think the adjustments are why I feel even 614 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: more optimistic about Ohio State because they needed to change 615 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: their game plan on offense and switched to more of 616 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: a downhill style running attack, which they did I thought 617 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: really well, notably with my and Williams, and they just 618 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: beat Notre Dame's brains in down the stretch and that 619 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: was how they ran out the clock and eventually got 620 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: the eleven point. Though on defense they also needed to 621 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: change some things as well. And you know, whether it's 622 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: a second half Jim Knowles thing or a second half 623 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: Tommy Reese thing or both working in tandem, sure, who's 624 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: to say, But it just felt to me like Ohio 625 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: State had the flexibility in scheme to change their mind 626 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: on a couple key points and eventually put that game 627 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: on ice as we got into the late stages of 628 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: the third quarter and all throughout the fourth. So that 629 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: ability to change what they're doing, really their style wholesale 630 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: on offense and go in a different direction, to me 631 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: was really telling. 632 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 2: But you also thought they were going to score like 633 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 2: thirty five forty five points against Notre Dame. I did, 634 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 2: I did, and so they didn't do that. And so 635 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 2: the conclusion you are jumping to is maybe without some 636 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 2: star power at receiver, maybe because Notre Dame's defense is 637 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: really good and they're not going to see a lot 638 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 2: of defenses as good as what Notre Dame can offer. 639 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: Especially upfront that it was a week one, you know, 640 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 2: it's not fully fair to say this is who Ohio 641 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 2: State is and isn't correct or a week against what 642 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 2: we think is a pretty good Notre Dame team. You're 643 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 2: saying that the way in which they were down at 644 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 2: the half flip things adjusted on the fly, relying on 645 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 2: more power rushing, and the improvement they seem to show 646 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 2: on defense secures the variety of ways in which Ohio 647 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,399 Speaker 2: State you believe will go down as the twenty twenty 648 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 2: two national champion. 649 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: That is correct, And you know one other point there, 650 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: going into half, Notre Dame had a fair amount of 651 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: momentum in that game. It felt like in the second quarter, 652 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: especially Notre Dame had done some different things schematically to 653 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, stop doing what they were doing in the 654 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: first quarter and be a little bit more downhill in 655 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: their approach, and it worked. It got some momentum for them. 656 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: The second half was a completely different ball wax, completely different. 657 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: Notre Dame's momentum was pretty much up in thin air 658 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 1: because of what Jim Knowles was doing on defense. And 659 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: I really appreciate the way I mean not as a 660 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: Notre Dame fan, but just as a college football fan, 661 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,280 Speaker 1: the way they were able to go in at halftime, 662 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: make adjustments, come out and be a better team for it. 663 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 2: Well, your team is Notre Dame. Do you have a 664 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 2: conclusion to jump to about the Irish and too soon? 665 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: Tommy? Yeah, I mean no, no, not yet. I think 666 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: the defense, the defense is very solid and I knew 667 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: that going in. That is not a new conclusion for me. 668 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: If anything, they held down Ohio State with their secondary 669 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 1: much better than I expected. And I don't know if 670 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: that was a function of the defensive line getting pressure 671 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 1: or if that was just the guys in the secondary 672 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: holding their lanes, doing their part and playing tight coverage. 673 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: There were definitely moments down the stretch where guys are 674 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,240 Speaker 1: getting beat starting Hilly cam Hart's pulling on some jerseys 675 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 1: there to prevent against a big play. So defensively, I 676 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 1: felt like they were as good, if not a little 677 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: bit better than I expected. Offense, though I don't know, 678 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: I just yeah, I mean, they're not going to play 679 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: a defense like that. No, basically the rest of the year, right, Yeah, 680 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: it remains to be seen where the offense is at. 681 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: I want to see Lorenzo Styles get the ball more 682 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: outside of the first play of the game. I want 683 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: to see Tyler Buckner have a chance to set his 684 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: feet more and actually deliver a pass. There were a 685 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 1: couple pass like I think Buckner's got real potential, and 686 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 1: I'm excited about what he can do. There were definitely 687 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 1: moments in that game where it's like, maybe he should 688 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: throw off his front foot and not his back. Maybe 689 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: he should throw in front of Michael Maher and not 690 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: expect a miraculous catch. I'd like to see him mature 691 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more before I draw any conclusions there. 692 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 2: Fair Enough, I don't have any conclusions about either one 693 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 2: of these teams that that alters what I thought about 694 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 2: them going in. I thought they were both going to 695 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 2: be very good to excellent, and I still think that 696 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 2: in the case of Ohio State excellent and Notre Dame 697 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 2: very good. I'm dumping a little bit of all miss Yeah, 698 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 2: me too. Actually, I'm why for you. I'm worried about quarterback. 699 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 2: I'm worried that perhaps we didn't put enough respect on 700 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 2: Matt Correll's name and enough respect on what they lost 701 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 2: on offense skill wise, and I still think that. I mean, 702 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 2: the defense is very good, and we expected it to 703 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 2: be even with losing DJ Dirkin. That's where they've really 704 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 2: taken a number of impressive steps forward these past couple 705 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 2: of years. But offensively, I'm willing to give them time. 706 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 2: I'm willing to believe Lane Kiffin figures this out. But 707 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,919 Speaker 2: with their schedule, Yeah, and when with things a little 708 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 2: bit unsettled at quarterback and new quarterback, new offensive coordinator, 709 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 2: a lot of new skill guys all trying to sort 710 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 2: of get on the same page to produce some sort 711 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 2: of scary symphony. I'm I'm a little bit worried, a 712 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 2: little bit more worried than I was. Lane Kiffin was 713 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 2: one of those is one of those guys that I 714 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 2: generally give the benefit of the doubt, but I'm downgrading 715 00:37:55,800 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 2: them to will always be scary on offense too. They'll 716 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 2: figure it out and be pretty good, but I don't 717 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 2: know if it's going to be anywhere near the kind 718 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: of success overall winning double digit games like they did 719 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 2: last year. 720 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, what's really interesting about The Old Miss thing to 721 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: me is that, in a sense, people had jumped to 722 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: conclusions back in April. Right, they bring over Jackson Dart. 723 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: He looked the part. He's got the Anakin Skywalker thing 724 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: going on. There's a vibe here. He didn't look all 725 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: that good. No. In week one. You know, we've had 726 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 1: some Old Miss fans who've written in and say Lukealtmeyer 727 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: is the better player, he should be the quarterback. And 728 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 1: as we know now, Ole Miss is doing the Michigan thing. Yeah, 729 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: or maybe Michigan's doing the Old Miss thing. I don't 730 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: know where. They're playing both quarterbacks in the first two games. 731 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: Maybe lu Kaltmeyer will be the guy by the time 732 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: the dust settles here. But certainly in week one you 733 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: need a really good quarterback to run that system, and 734 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart left a lot to be desired. Zach Evans 735 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: was good. They're the transfer. He was really good. 736 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but he already was good in a Power 737 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 2: Comp five conference in a pseudo full time role. 738 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's right. So the quarterback thing I 739 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 1: think definitely warrants a bit of a downgrade for Ole Bass. 740 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm fully dumping the stock because 741 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: I do believe that Link Kiffin's a pretty good coach. 742 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: He'll get this thing sorted out. Oh yeah, they'll be fine. 743 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: They'll be fine. But it's tough schedule. It's the SEC West, 744 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: and there's not a whole lot of wiggle room if 745 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: you can't get that position sorted out. 746 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: I am taking my Nebraska Optimism stock and I am 747 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,919 Speaker 2: putting it in a cage, which I'm then putting into 748 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 2: a safe, which I'm then wrapping in barbed wire that's 749 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 2: electrified somehow, and I am burying it underneath the Marianas Trench? 750 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,320 Speaker 2: Is that what it's called? Can they go under the 751 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: place the trench where there's a will, there's a way? 752 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 1: Okay. Lincoln, Nebraska is where losers go to lose. Oh wow. 753 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: Or it's where winners go to lose. It's where people 754 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 2: well who we think will be good. It is a 755 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 2: losing place to lose. It is the college football upside down. 756 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 757 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 2: It is just not a place that can be turned 758 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 2: around at all this year and any anytime soon. I 759 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 2: am out. I am fully out. I know it's for 760 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: them their second week post week one, you say, you 761 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 2: know what, let's crack our knuckles, let's crack our neck, 762 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 2: let's crack our back and lay waste. 763 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 1: To who they play North Dakota, and. 764 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 2: They didn't for a half, like they could just just 765 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 2: give the ball to Anthony Grant, just complete passes in 766 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 2: play action, just like let's get going, let's shake the cobwebs, 767 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,879 Speaker 2: these Irish cobwebs, these guinness filled cobwebs. And they didn't 768 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 2: have that ability. Do you think, Sorry, sorry if that's 769 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 2: asking too much. I know they ran away from North 770 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: Dakota in due time, but like, no, I'm out. I'm 771 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 2: fully out of my Nebraska optimism. It is a loser 772 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 2: place right now. 773 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: Do you think that Scott Frost or Mark Whipple or 774 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 1: just the coaching staff at Nebraska is guilty of riding 775 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: the overthink express. 776 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, and that it's not solvable with the 777 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 2: same staff cannot turn things around if philosophically they're not 778 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 2: able to do it against North Dakota. Now I can 779 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 2: look at their schedule and also say like, wow, there's 780 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 2: a lot of questionable teams here. 781 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. 782 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: I believe in Iowa more than I believe in Nebraska, 783 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 2: and Iowa just gave us the Gentleman's touchdown, right, it 784 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 2: all win against their own Dakota struggle. So I'm just out. 785 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 2: I just I don't want I did this a couple 786 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 2: of years ago with Texas FROMRCI. I don't want any 787 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 2: Texas might win a couple games, that might. I don't 788 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 2: want to hitch any sort of brain power in the 789 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 2: direction and onto the saddle of the Nebraska corn Huskers. 790 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 2: I just they're a waste for everybody unless you're a 791 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 2: Nebraska fan. Maybe especially if you're a Nebraska fan, to 792 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 2: waste any sort of emotional intelligence. 793 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 1: This is a serio commentary, Dan, this is I really 794 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: want it. It is really hurtful language from you. 795 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 2: I like all sorts of players in a vacuum that 796 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 2: are suiting up for Big Red. I think they're talented, 797 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:19,280 Speaker 2: I think they're interesting. Now it is it is strictly 798 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 2: a geography thing for me that right now in Lincoln, Nebraska, 799 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 2: within that facility, there is no hope. 800 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, that's a conclusion. Talk about jumping in with 801 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,280 Speaker 1: two feet good with my chest. Sorry. 802 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 2: Sometimes and this is this is what has been true 803 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 2: about places. Sometimes it's just the place in concert with 804 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 2: the person running the place, and I know they have 805 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,919 Speaker 2: a new a d I know you know they they've 806 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 2: been making efforts on the staff and either puking an 807 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 2: extra amount along the offensive line whatever. Nah, damn, No, 808 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 2: you lose that way to Northwestern, who may still be 809 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 2: awful by the way, we don't know. I might try 810 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: to get by the way. I think it's this week 811 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 2: Northwestern is playing Duke right, correct. I might try to 812 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 2: get to that tailgate. It's not terribly far away. I 813 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: might try to get to that tailgate. If you see 814 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:16,360 Speaker 2: me out at the Northwestern tailgate, say what's up. I 815 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 2: I'm just washing. 816 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,760 Speaker 1: My hands of it, Ty, just washing my hands of it. Next, 817 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: I've got Sean Clifford not being Penn State's starting quarterback 818 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 1: by the end of the year, So. 819 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 2: That the conclusion is that it's going to be a 820 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 2: drew A lar Are we positive? That's how we're pronounce it, 821 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 2: drew a lar led team. 822 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: Drew Alar, Drew Aller, Drew a Laire. It's really in 823 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 1: the eye of the beholder, Dan. But yeah, in the 824 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 1: very limited action, I mean, this is a kid club 825 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: Nick situation in a sense where we saw very limited 826 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: action from the backup quarterback, a highly touted freshman or 827 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,280 Speaker 1: highly touted, you know what, would be a first year starter. 828 00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 1: And he, I mean, he was just better. He was 829 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: better in all facets. He's bigger, his arm is stronger, 830 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: he seemed more confident with the football. And I just 831 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,720 Speaker 1: keep wondering how long it's going to take James Franklin. 832 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 1: How long is it going to take him to just 833 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,400 Speaker 1: pull the switch. He sees it too, if we see it, 834 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 1: you know, he sees it. Yeah, And so I'm just 835 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: curious as to how long it's going to take for 836 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,439 Speaker 1: them to get to this stage here. It may be 837 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: thrust upon him in the event of another injury to 838 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: Sean Clifford. We saw he apparently had some cramps in 839 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: this one. That's why he was out. That's why there 840 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,839 Speaker 1: was a backup situation to begin with in the game 841 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 1: against Purdue on Thursday evening. You know, we don't want 842 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: anybody to get hurt, for sure, but that's definitely part 843 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,320 Speaker 1: of Sean Clifford's mo At this point, it could happen. 844 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: Maybe that's how we see the backup. It could just 845 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: be a performance based thing either way, whether it's by 846 00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: injury or due to Penn State losing a game at 847 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 1: some point point. I give it until Penn State's first 848 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,399 Speaker 1: loss before we see do. 849 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,759 Speaker 2: You think it's going to be full time or do 850 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 2: you think it's going to be? Like, well, here comes 851 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 2: the freshman, and coach Franklin said he was gonna we're 852 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 2: working in some packages for him, Like do you think 853 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 2: it's going to be a seventy thirty situation or just 854 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 2: a switch fully flipped. 855 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a switch. I think 856 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: it has to be a switch because what's the skill, 857 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 1: Like if it's a Jaydeen Daniels Garrett Nusmeyer situation, Okay, 858 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: Jade Daniels likes to run the ball more, right, he's 859 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: going to give them more in that capacity. But these 860 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 1: players are close enough in terms of what they provide 861 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: that I can't imagine there'd be a package type deal 862 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 1: or you want to go to one thirty percent of 863 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: the time and then the other seventy percent. Doesn't seem 864 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: like that would make a whole lot of logical sense 865 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 1: to me, even like with Buckner last year versus Jack Cone, 866 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 1: Buckner was exclusively the running quarterback, which drove me crazy, 867 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: but he certainly gave them a different look. Something else 868 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,279 Speaker 1: out there that the defense had to scheme around at 869 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: least think about. But these two skill sets are compatible 870 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: enough that I just don't see it. I think he 871 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: makes the move. I think you should do it sooner 872 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: than later, because the backup in this case is better 873 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: than the starter. 874 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:15,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm out on Kansas State in the way. 875 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,440 Speaker 1: That I was what in the way that I was 876 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 1: in whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa Woa. You 877 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 1: can't just drop a buck. It's one thing to use 878 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 1: the hurtful I know language that you did about Nebraska, 879 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: a team, by the way, that you were pretty high 880 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 1: on when we did the previews. Yeah, but it's another 881 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 1: altogether to break up with with with the purple people eaters. Yeah. 882 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 2: Well, guess where I guess where Andrew Martinez transferred him 883 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 2: the loser place where losers go to lose. 884 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 1: So this is a. 885 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 2: Sorry, I just I'm not in. You win a game 886 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 2: thirty to nothing against South Dakota and you can't throw the. 887 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: Ball at all. Nah. This is really a Nebraska thing 888 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 1: for you, isn't it, I guess? 889 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,359 Speaker 2: But it's also just a show me something if I'm 890 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,759 Speaker 2: going to believe you as a potential Big twelve threat. 891 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 1: You gonta be able to throw the ball again. South Dakota. 892 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 2: Sorry, they're going to improve, They're gonna get better. They're 893 00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 2: gonna have really strong looking games. But it also just 894 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 2: tells me what they're capable of. It tells me what 895 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 2: they're capable of against Oklahoma State, against Baylor, against Oklahoma 896 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 2: and I'm just out on it. I am out on 897 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 2: Kansas State in that regard. Still go eight in four, 898 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 2: nine to three or something like that, but I am 899 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 2: not taking them fully seriously after what they were not 900 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:31,439 Speaker 2: able to prove against South Dakota. Yeah, okay, I'm gonna 901 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 2: stay spicy, ty. I'm out on Oregon twenty twenty two 902 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 2: as a whole your own team, my own team. They 903 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 2: play maybe the best team in college football. In Week one, 904 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 2: they got throttled. They did not look good. Bo Nicks 905 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 2: did not I know, no, did not look good. But 906 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 2: you're out that quickly. I think they'll win the games. 907 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,359 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna go to a bowl. I think 908 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 2: they're gonna figure out a lot of things. But I 909 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 2: am always looking, especially with my team, I am always 910 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 2: looking to say, interesting decision. They probably know something. They 911 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 2: probably have a plan. They're probably going to figure something out. 912 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 2: And I thought that about Bonix, who I've been out 913 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 2: on basically since day one, very open about being out 914 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 2: on Bonix. 915 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, you have not been a bow Nick's apologist in 916 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 1: any sense. 917 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 2: And then and I think Dan Lanning will do very 918 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 2: good things in Eugene. My Dan Lanning opinion is unchanged. 919 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 2: But man, I don't if he wasn't involved in that 920 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 2: defensive game plan, I think he's going to be involved 921 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 2: in more game plans moving forward. Okay, George is way better. 922 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 2: We get all that. And there was a lot of 923 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 2: conversation about it's just different down here. Georgia is you know, 924 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 2: they're built different and they've had so much time to 925 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 2: This was a very This is a very talented Oregon roster. 926 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 2: This is not Georgia beating up on Oregon State. It's 927 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:01,720 Speaker 2: not Georgia beating up on North Carolina. It's not Georgia 928 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 2: beating up on Rucker. Like, I don't know why I'm 929 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 2: lumping all those teams together, but you don't you understand 930 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 2: what I'm saying, Like, this is not a roster that 931 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 2: should lose to anybody by forty six points. Now, it's 932 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 2: a new coach. I understand things are new, but the 933 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 2: decision to go after bo Nicks, what if they just 934 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 2: wanted for Keaton Slovas still probably lose that game by 935 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 2: thirty five points or something like that, but you there's 936 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:28,440 Speaker 2: something there. And then seeing his comments afterward, again, I 937 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 2: think Dan Lane's gonna do good things seeing his comments happen. 938 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 2: We just need Bonnicks to play within the rhythms of 939 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 2: the offense. We just need to see that's not who 940 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 2: bo Nicks has ever been. 941 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 1: What does that even mean? 942 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 2: We need bon Like it's just a turnover thing. We 943 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 2: just need when he was doing things that's not who 944 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 2: he's ever been consistently. You'll get that Arkansas game last year, 945 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 2: You'll get the you know, Ole miss game, whatever. But 946 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 2: most of the time bo Nicks is just sort of 947 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 2: doing his own thing. And so to see that comment 948 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 2: at like and the backup quarterbacks may be atrocious, and 949 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 2: I get I understand all that, But to now go 950 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 2: through a season with this expecting something different in wins 951 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 2: and losses whatever, I think would be foolish. I'm very 952 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 2: excited for twenty twenty three. 953 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:20,760 Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, talk about punting good lord. 954 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just with how there were certain plays in 955 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 2: that game. When you look back, there were certain plays. 956 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 1: I should just let you talk. You didn't even need 957 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 1: me for this. This is true. 958 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 2: I was texting with our friend Jeff Schwartz and he 959 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,000 Speaker 2: was I mean, you're mister pff. Now you have eighty dollars. 960 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 2: We're so proud of you. He said, Like justin Flow, 961 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 2: the starting inside linebacker, five star guy that Georgia definitely 962 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 2: wanted badly finished with a grade of like twenty three. 963 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: So there are certain things where it's just like he 964 00:50:54,600 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 2: wasn't prepared to play in that game at all. And 965 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,560 Speaker 2: you see some of the replays about, you know, the 966 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 2: secondary getting absolutely obliterated in the run game by Georgia receivers. 967 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 2: He's like, what was the preparation, Like, what was the 968 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,840 Speaker 2: plan here? And I just think it's gonna take time 969 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 2: to get this team to a place. Again it's Georgia, 970 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 2: but this is organ has been to two national championships 971 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 2: in the last twelve years. Oregon's recruited like a top ten, 972 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 2: twelve to fifteen program for the past few years under 973 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 2: Mario Christobal, I haven't found a quarterback. But again, if 974 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say things like I don't see it getting 975 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,919 Speaker 2: figured out in season about other teams. I don't see 976 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 2: it getting fully figured out in season. 977 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 1: For Oregon, how about them? Yeah, give me that spice. 978 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:42,440 Speaker 1: I like it. 979 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 2: That's all. They're gonna win games.
