1 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 1: God bless football, Mike Ya. 2 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,240 Speaker 2: God bless Football, Mike Golick, God. 3 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 3: Blessed football, Taylor, God blessed Football Studios. 4 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm so excited, so exacting, and Golic did it with 5 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: some month considering. 6 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 4: What's happened to Notre Dame in the program. 7 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, the last couple of days, he still had something 8 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: for Taylor, had something left in the tank for Taylor, 9 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: and Taylor was very excited. 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 4: Okay, Mike, as as. 11 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: A prominent Notre Dame alum, someone whose voice means something 12 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: within that fanbase, put us there at around twelve to 13 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: twenty five on Sunday when you learned that Miami was 14 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: getting in and Notre Dame was not well. 15 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 5: Well, two things in all honesty, and I've said this 16 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 5: on you know, Mike and I show. It's not Miami 17 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 5: getting and I get it as a player. 18 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 3: I mean Miami won on the field. 19 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: Yes, the issue in fairness you have said this for 20 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks now, like Hey, if I'm a 21 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: UM fan, I'll be upset you beat us. 22 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 5: The issue with that situation is the committee led you 23 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 5: to believe that head to head had already been taken 24 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 5: into play and Notre Dame was ranked ahead right for 25 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 5: how many weeks? Was Notre Dame ranked ahead of Miami 26 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 5: when Miami was only two spots away? And this is 27 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 5: to the committee. You mean to tell me they have 28 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 5: to be back to back before you do head to head. 29 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 5: It can't be two away and head to head doesn't 30 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 5: come into play. 31 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 3: It makes no sense. It makes no sense. 32 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 5: So if they put Miami ahead of Notre Dame three 33 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 5: or weeks ago or so, I would have been like, 34 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 5: I get it. As a player, they won on the field, 35 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 5: resumes are close. I'm fine with it. It's Alabama, right, 36 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 5: And it was the preceding week, the penultimate, when Notre Dame, 37 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 5: you know, played a losing record Stanford and smoked them, 38 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 5: and Alabama played a losing record Auburn. 39 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,279 Speaker 3: And you heard Hunter yer. 40 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 5: Check come on after that game and say, well, they 41 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 5: played a good first half. But then you know, and 42 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 5: it's like, wait a minute, you're breaking down the game 43 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 5: of a game they barely won over a losing record team. 44 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 5: Not only that, they jumped Notre Dame, they jumped Notre 45 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 5: Dame with that win. So that to me set off 46 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 5: bells in my head, and every Notre Dame fans head 47 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 5: that was like, uh oh, they're positioning Alabama, and I 48 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 5: think their perfect outcome would have been what it was 49 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 5: BYU losing, drop them, put Miami next to Notre Dame, 50 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 5: and then I don't think they expected Alabama to get 51 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 5: blown out, right, I think they expected a closer game. 52 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 3: So I think I believe they were in that. 53 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 5: Committee room going, oh shit, Okay, that was a butt kicking. 54 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 5: But we kind of boxed ourselves in with this and 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 5: they didn't drop them. What in the last two or 56 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 5: three years, sixteen conference championship games had at least one 57 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 5: team that was in the rankings, and one or two 58 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 5: times they didn't drop TCU in twenty two and Alabama 59 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 5: this year. Every other time the team dropped at least 60 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 5: a spot, but not this time. So I saw this 61 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 5: coming two weeks away. I thought the committeees tried to 62 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 5: set themselves up to keep Alabama in this. So again, 63 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 5: it's not Miami, Miami, I'm good with. I'm good with, 64 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 5: it's Alabama. And the way the committee kind of did 65 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 5: it from the penultimate weekend to the final rankings. 66 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 6: Mike if there was only one reveal show at the 67 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 6: end of the season and not every week. Do you 68 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 6: think Notre Dame would have then played in their bowl game. 69 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 6: That's a good question and it's one I'd like to 70 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 6: find out. 71 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 5: Quite honestly, I agree with Kirk Kurbstreet when he said 72 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 5: they only need one show, and listen, we know why 73 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 5: things are done. It rates well and it makes money 74 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 5: or ESPN, so they're going to do it. But remember 75 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 5: another thing that rates is the college basketball selection show. 76 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:18,559 Speaker 3: They do that once. 77 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 5: They do that one time, and it should be one 78 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 5: time here because if you did it one time, put 79 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 5: up the resumes and saw Miami and Notre Dame were 80 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 5: close in resumes in Miami one head to head, and 81 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 5: they did it one time and put Miami ahead in 82 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 5: Notre Dame. 83 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 3: I don't think anybody would have had a problem with it. 84 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 5: Again, it was the three or four weeks before that 85 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 5: they had Notre Dame ahead of Miami. Then it would 86 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 5: have come down to wait a minute, Alabama just got 87 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 5: smoked in a bowl game, barely won against the losing 88 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 5: record Auburn team. How are they ahead of Notre Dame. 89 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 5: But I do think that's the way they should go. 90 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 5: But because of money, I doubt that's going to happen. 91 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: It would have been so cool. So I understand what 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: you're saying about Alabama. For me, it's the non Power 93 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: five schools getting in. You could had a playoff that 94 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: included BYU, that included Notre Dame, and you could have 95 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: set it up where Miami plays Notre Dame first round, 96 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: you know. 97 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 3: So the thing with the we'll get to the bowl game. 98 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 5: But the thing with the Group of fives is I'm 99 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 5: kind of torn because right now the group of five 100 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 5: and the Power fours are still all together, right, we 101 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 5: need to get to the separation point right where the 102 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 5: Power four in there. However, many teams are separate and 103 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 5: you just run a playoff for them, and group of 104 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 5: fives have their own thing because too late in James Madison, 105 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 5: I'm happy they get a chance to experience the playoffs, 106 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 5: but it's supposed to be about the twelve teams with 107 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 5: a chance to win it. And even I get it, 108 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 5: Even in a normal twelve team situation, there's really only 109 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 5: you know, not every teams a has a true chance 110 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 5: to win it. 111 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 3: But I mean, really, I mean I get it. 112 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 5: That's the rules. Now you have to put those two 113 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 5: in the rule. They need to change. It's a tie 114 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 5: breaking that a five loss duke team can be playing 115 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 5: in the championship. And you know they changed the rules 116 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 5: quickly last year when Arizona State and Boise State had 117 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 5: buys in the first round, right, they took that away 118 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 5: in a year. It'll be interesting what they change this 119 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 5: next year. What they quickly will change next year? Will 120 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 5: it involve the group of five? Will it involve tie 121 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 5: breakers for a conference? So I'm interested because something will change. 122 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 2: What does a group of five have to do to 123 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 2: justify it this year? 124 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 3: Do they have to win one game? Is it two games? 125 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: Do both of them have to win? We would you say? 126 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 3: It's like, okay, if they if. 127 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 5: They would win one game, that would that would justify. 128 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 5: But Tulane's playing Old Miss, who they got smoked by. Yes, right, 129 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 5: they lost by thirty five points to Old. 130 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 4: Miss I think or something like that. 131 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they they did, and and uh. 132 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 5: Uh James is playing Oregon, and I mean one win, 133 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 5: one win would justify. And you had that occasional year 134 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 5: where you know, a Boise State is actually ranked in 135 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 5: the top twelve and makes it. But and I love 136 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 5: room for the group of five because it's a lot 137 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 5: of players that guys work just as hard as power for. 138 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 5: But in this case you're not getting the best twelve 139 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 5: and eventually the best sixteen teams in. 140 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 3: So you'll wonder how it's going to change. 141 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 5: Now everybody's losing their mind about Notre Dame because next year, 142 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 5: because of the agreement that was reached, if Notre Dame 143 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 5: ranks in the top twelve and there's a twelve team playoff, 144 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 5: they're automatically in. And I love how people are mad 145 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 5: at Notre Dame for that, and I try to explain 146 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 5: you realize there are adults at the table on the 147 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 5: other side who can say no, but they haven't said no. 148 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 5: Notre Dame doesn't make up the rules, and Notre Dame 149 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 5: doesn't put. 150 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 3: A gun to anybody's head. 151 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: If Notre Dame has leverage, what's the difference of leverage 152 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 5: in a personal contract? You do you think steven A 153 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 5: didn't have leverage over ESPN and the latest deal he signed. 154 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,679 Speaker 5: Of course, if you have leverage, you swing the leverage hammer, 155 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 5: and if Notre Dame had leverage, you use it. But 156 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 5: let's remember it's a negotiation and the other side can 157 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 5: always say no. 158 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: What'd you make of your ad going on the Dan 159 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: Patrick Show and just ripping the ACC, the conference all 160 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: that he's not in the conference, but he's ripping it anyways. 161 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 3: So that you know. 162 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 5: Jim Phillips, who's the commissioner of the ACC, used to 163 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 5: be an associate athletic director at Notre Dame, so he 164 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 5: has Notre Dame ties. 165 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 3: Good guy. Really, I liked Jim a lot, and. 166 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 5: Quite honestly, each person was being loyal to their side people. 167 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 5: Vakuwa was being loyal to Notre Dame and sticking up 168 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 5: for them, and Jim Phillips was being loyal to the 169 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 5: ACC and it's full time members, this one being Miami, who, 170 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 5: by the way, was thinking about leaving. 171 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 3: But they're a full time member. 172 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: You don't need to throw that in. They're still there. 173 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: They were thinking about leaving, but they're still in the aties. 174 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: No, no, I'm saying I'm saying. 175 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 5: I'm saying that in the fact that I'm saying that, 176 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 5: in the fact that maybe Jim Phillips was extra fighting 177 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 5: for them, say hey, we're fighting for you. Stay in 178 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 5: our conference. You know we're we're here working for you, 179 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 5: We're fighting for you. So I don't I don't have 180 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 5: a problem with either side being loyal to their. 181 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: Side, right, but it does seem like sour grapes to 182 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: blame the ACC. You pride yourself, I'm being an independent 183 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: ahead of the curve. I know some of the sports 184 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: are in the ACC. But to rip the ACC and 185 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: the AEC network for running the game in a loop 186 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: and who cares? 187 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 3: What do yeah? 188 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 5: I mean, I really don't think running the game on 189 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 5: a loop And if that influenced the committee, we have 190 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,559 Speaker 5: bigger problems. Well, quite honestly, that should have influenced the 191 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 5: committee weeks ago, Yes, that that Miami beat Notre Dame. 192 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: So, Mike, I'm wondering because the committee's all in a 193 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: room together a championship weekend because they have to make 194 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: their selections, and they're watching the pregame shows and they're 195 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: watching and they're hearing prominent college football voices said, hey, 196 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: Miami Notre Dame. If it comes down to those two teams, 197 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: Miami needs to get in. 198 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 4: They wan head to head, guys like Herbstreak, guys like 199 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: sab It. Everyone was saying it. 200 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: How much do you think that impacted the committee's decision 201 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: to flip Notre Dame In Miami. 202 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 3: They're human beings, yes, right, so they can be human 203 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 3: beings can be swayed. 204 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 5: What was the one time hunter yer Chick At the 205 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 5: end of an interview with Reesaid I, hope I answered 206 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 5: all Nick Saban's questions this time he said, it's kind 207 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 5: of sarcastically, but still obviously he's listening and he's hearing. 208 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 3: So this is what you get. 209 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 5: With a thirteen person or twelve as somebody has to 210 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 5: recuse himself a human committee. 211 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 3: Everybody deals with it differently. 212 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 5: Everybody may be influenced by an outside voice. You can't 213 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 5: say that they absolutely aren't, some might be, some might 214 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 5: not be. 215 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 3: You don't know. 216 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 5: That's why you know, people talk about the computer, the 217 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 5: old BCS system that's not influenced by anything. That's putting 218 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 5: information into a computer and it spits out out the 219 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 5: top team. 220 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 3: So which which do we like better? Right? Do we 221 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 3: like yelling at the committee. 222 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 5: Every single week or trying to figure out what their 223 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 5: thought process is as they keep moving the goalposts? And 224 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 5: I don't just say that this year. Hell I was 225 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 5: on Florida state side a couple of years ago when 226 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 5: they got screwed. They had one of the best defenses 227 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 5: in the country lost their starting quarterback and got left out. 228 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 5: So I mean again, that's a that's a human element 229 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 5: being involved. And to think humans don't get swayed by 230 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 5: prominent voices, of course they do, you know that, But 231 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 5: but you have to take that in the whole ball of. 232 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: Axe because it's it's it's a human thing.

Right? 275 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 5: How does a five lost team win a tiebreaker? I mean, 276 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 5: and listen, I go with Jennys Phillips, I go past 277 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 5: the two lines of the well, I'm sure the tie 278 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 5: breakers were made up before Jim Phillips, who was there is? 279 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 5: I go past, I go to the second line of 280 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 5: a tie breaker. My eyes glaze over. I mean, you 281 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 5: you start going down the list, I'm like, lost. 282 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 4: You've got too far? 283 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 3: Right? 284 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 5: But yeah, it seems odd that a five a five 285 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 5: lost team could actually be ahead of two loss teams, right, yeah? 286 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 5: I mean how many two loss teams were there in 287 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 5: the conference? I'm looking at at one, two, three four 288 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 5: five U And now Duke was a two loss team 289 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 5: as well with five overall losses, while the other teams 290 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 5: were two losses, had three four two four. 291 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 3: But it just it just seems odd. 292 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 4: Duke lost to Yuka. 293 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I yeah, I I listen. I wish I had 294 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 3: an answer for you. They're making it. 295 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 4: They don't have the answers. They're making it. 296 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 3: Up as they go along. 297 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 5: Well, they have criteria, but you know, it's just what 298 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 5: order do they put do they put the criteria in? 299 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 5: And that seems because they're human and each human is different, 300 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 5: that seems to change every week and every year. 301 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, Michael, you concerned it all? 302 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: Like we listen, We've joked around with you, we were kidding, 303 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: but now it appears that there might be a chance 304 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: that Marcus Freeman becomes. 305 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 4: The next New York Giants head coach. Are you concerned 306 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 4: it all? 307 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 3: Like? 308 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 5: No, no, no, I'm not because I think there will 309 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 5: be an announcement made today that will rectify that. 310 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 4: Oh wow, are you he's wow?

Does 320 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 5: does he want to up in the pros? You know, 321 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 5: there's there's the highest level of football that's the NFL does. 322 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 5: Just like a player wants to play in the NFL, 323 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 5: what's a coach's goal. Is a coach happy coaching at 324 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 5: the top level in college or does he want to 325 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 5: go to the top level in football, which is the NFL. 326 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 5: That's only for every every individual coach to decide. 327 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: You know him far better than we do.

Right, without question. I don't 396 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 5: think Texas Tech's offense is good enough. Their defense is 397 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 5: very good, great, Yes, I love their defense, which would 398 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 5: would put put them into the fray. And Ole Missus 399 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 5: offense is very good. Oklahoma's defense is really good, but 400 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,719 Speaker 5: the offense. Again, outside of Ohio State, Georgia, and Indiana, 401 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,360 Speaker 5: you're starting to talk about teams. Every team has a 402 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 5: law or or a couple of flaws, but those are 403 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 5: the most complete teams. Wow, Miami's got a really good 404 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 5: defense as well, and their offense has been kind of 405 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 5: of hit or miss. I'd still probably lean toward Texas 406 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 5: Tech because of their defense, though the offense does worry me. 407 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 5: And and Old Miss. If Old miss could score uh with 408 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 5: you know, try and get a lead on one of 409 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 5: those teams that that might be, that might be good 410 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 5: as well. But I don't hold a lot of hope 411 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 5: outside of those three teams unless notre name was in it, 412 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 5: of course. 413 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: I think, of course that's then you'll be picking them. 414 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: Oregon is fourth tailor, is that what you're saying?

Mike. 448 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: Since we have you here and there was a game 449 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: last night and involved your former NFL team, the Philadelphia Eagles, 450 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: that certainly whatever happened last night feeds whatever the fans 451 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: have been saying and some of the players have been 452 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: saying for a while now. Jalen hurts with all the turnovers, Sirianni, 453 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: with's a questionable decision. What do you make here of 454 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: the Eagles losing a game. They're still gonna make the playoffs, Mike, 455 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: They're still gonna win that division. But it appears that 456 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: the Eagles might be in a little bit of trouble 457 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: in terms of, you know, repeating his Super Bowl champions. 458 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you know, listen, the defense came to play. Well, 459 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 5: they have seven sacks eleven quarterback hits. Yeah, but justin Herbert, 460 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 5: Herbert still made some big plays with his legs. Even 461 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 5: with the broken hand, he did not hesitate running with 462 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 5: the ball and made some good play with his legs. 463 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 5: The offense actually for Philadelphia actually got the rushing game going. 464 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 5: There were what ten of twelve games this year where 465 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 5: Saquon was held under sixty yards. This one he had 466 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 5: one hundred and twenty two, obviously helped by the fifty 467 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 5: two yard run on the tush push lineup, and then 468 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 5: they ran outside and he went the whole distance. Listen, 469 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 5: this was a game they had five turnovers and lost 470 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 5: in overtime. Right, oh yes, yeah, you know you still 471 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 5: can kind of like say, well, you know, and the 472 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 5: Chargers are a playoff team at this point. Eagles aren't 473 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 5: certainly are not as dominant as last year. And the 474 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 5: big reason is and even Saquon Barkley said it. He said, listen, 475 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 5: if teams playing US aren't trying to stop the run, 476 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 5: the coaching staff should be fired. Going off of what 477 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 5: they did last year they played. Last year, Philly played 478 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 5: against a stacked box, which is eight or more players 479 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 5: twenty percent of the time. 480 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: This year it's thirty three the time. 481 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 5: Last year, Sakuan had I think twenty seven runs of 482 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 5: over twenty yards. 483 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 3: This year he has two. 484 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 5: So teams are lining up to stop the run and 485 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 5: the Eagles just don't have a dominant enough passing game 486 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 5: to back them off. And the old line being nicked up. 487 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 5: Lane Johnson being out is huge. Landon Dickerson is having 488 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 5: a tough year as far as injuries Cam Jurgens as 489 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 5: Jurgens has missed time. So it's just a different offense 490 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 5: right now. And you're right, they're going to get to 491 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 5: the playoffs. But I think clearly the teams quite right now, 492 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 5: the top two in the NFC are in the same division. 493 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 3: It's the Rams and the Seahawks. 494 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: Right, Mike, you mentioned the offensive line lows for the 495 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 2: Eagles on the defensive side there without Jalen Carter, and 496 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if you know, but the Colts are 497 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 2: bringing in a grandfather to try out, and I'm just 498 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 2: wondering if maybe the Eagles want to bring in a 499 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 2: former defensive tackle to take a spot, and grandfather, you know, 500 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 2: maybe maybe you can go get a tryout or something. 501 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 5: Well off my numbers taken by Jordan Davis, So you know, 502 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 5: did they ask you and buy it back with the 503 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 5: fifty grand So I would give them two plays. The 504 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 5: first play I would get hurt. The second play I 505 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 5: would get hurt bad enough to. 506 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 3: Be carted off the field. 507 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 5: So no, But Philip Rivers, I mean, and I'm sure 508 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 5: people are going why because he played with him in 509 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 5: twenty twenty. No, the reason is they want to have 510 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 5: a quarterback in who knows the system. And Shane Steiken 511 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 5: was with the Chargers when Rivers was there, so connection 512 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 5: he would he would know the system and it would 513 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 5: be seamless coming in. 514 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 3: But I don't know. 515 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 5: I mean, Daniel Jones not only threw the ball well, 516 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 5: but he could run. Riley Leonard could run. Philip Rivers 517 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 5: could never run and will never run. So the offense 518 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 5: of Philosophy would certainly change to pure passing on his 519 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 5: side and running only with Jonathan Taylor. 520 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 3: So I don't don't know. 521 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 5: And how about the old guys coming back jac perre 522 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 5: Paul coming back for Tampa Bay. 523 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 3: Yes, you know, and signing with them. 524 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 4: There's a window here, Mike. I'm telling you, Mike. 525 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's right. 526 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 5: It might be Philip Rivers is looking for a break 527 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 5: from the fifteen kids he has at home. He's like, 528 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 5: I'm gonna. 529 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 3: Go try out. 530 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 5: Hun, I'm gonna go be in a hotel by myself 531 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 5: for a little while. 532 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 3: It gets some sleep, right. 533 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: I like the idea of him actually just telling her 534 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 1: he's gonna try out, but not trying out, just sleeping 535 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: nearby hotel. 536 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 5: How about Yeah, I get taking a break. 537 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: But if he came back and he led the Colts 538 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl of Philip Rivers, he would win 539 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: the MVP, right, I mean. 540 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 5: Well, he would certainly win Comeback Player of the Year, 541 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 5: of course, there's no doubt about that. But I just 542 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 5: don't see that happen. And that team is so falling off. 543 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 5: Houston's coming up. Jacksonville is already up there. Jacksonville and 544 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 5: Houston have split during the season. I think that'll end 545 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 5: up battling it out for the for the the plasts, 546 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 5: and I think two teams that were at the top 547 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 5: of their division are both going to not make the plass. 548 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 5: I think that's Colts, and I don't think they are 549 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,719 Speaker 5: going to make the playoffs either. Now the Bears are 550 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 5: going to have really improved, no doubt about it. But 551 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 5: I think they're they're they're fell fell from one to seven, 552 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 5: and I think eventually they're gonna fall out. 553 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: Mike, I'm wondering if you agree with this. They're not 554 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: going to win that division. But I feel like there's 555 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: a real opportunity here for the Bills in Josh Allen. 556 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: And the reason I think that is because you're likely 557 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 1: not going to have Mahomes in the playoffs. There's a 558 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: chance you won't have Lamar Jackson in the playoffs, and 559 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: if you do, it's gonna be a kind of, you know, 560 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: a team that's not nearly as good as we see 561 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: in years past. In the Baltimore Ravens and the Eagles 562 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: are down. Josh Allen is not down. That guy is 563 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: an animal. He is playing well. He can carry a 564 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: team by himself, and I don't think he sweats playing 565 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: bow Knicks on the road or he sweats playing you know, 566 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: the Patriots on the road in Drake May. I think 567 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 1: Josh Allen and the Bills have a really good opportunity 568 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: to at least make it to the Super Bowl. 569 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 5: There may not be a better quarterback in the league 570 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 5: that can put on his cape and take charge. You know, 571 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 5: they played the Bengals and both scored in the thirties 572 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 5: and Josh Allen needed to do everything he could on 573 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 5: an offensive standpoint or from an offensive standpoint to get 574 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 5: that done for them, and and he's able to do it. 575 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 3: Now. 576 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 5: The Bills defense has gotten run on at times during 577 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 5: the years that that's certainly an issue, especially around the playoffs. 578 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 5: But yeah, I think I think the Chiefs and Baltimore. 579 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 5: Baltimore losing to Pittsburgh, that was a I thought Baltimore 580 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 5: was going to keep ascending and take charge in that division. 581 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 3: But the Bills. 582 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 5: They played the Patriots next in New England. I called 583 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 5: the game where the Bills lost at home to New England. 584 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 5: Now they get him in New England. Then they play 585 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 5: the Browns, and they played the Eagles, and they played 586 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 5: the Jets. So two easy games and two tough games, 587 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 5: so we'll see how they finish up. I agree they 588 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 5: should be in the playoffs. What they're in the they're 589 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 5: in the sixth slot right now, so I do see 590 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 5: them one of those not. 591 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 3: Winning the division, but being a very dangerous team. 592 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. 593 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm doing there. It's like, maybe 594 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: we should just wrap our heads around the idea of 595 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: the Broncos or Patriots making it to the super Bowl. 596 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 4: I'm trying to come up with that. He's an area 597 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 4: in which they don't me. 598 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, it's not like those two teams 599 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 5: haven't been dominant in football over the years, right, Yes, 600 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 5: certainly with Lway, then with obviously with with Peyton, and 601 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 5: we know with Brady that the Patriots. So it's just 602 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 5: kind of, you know, everything comes full circle. The Chiefs 603 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 5: weren't going to stay at the top forever. The Patriots 604 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 5: weren't going to stay at the top forever. They lose 605 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 5: Brady and they they go down. And Buffalo was running 606 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 5: that division. But you know, both teams give them credit. 607 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 5: They've built you know, those two teams and the Rams 608 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 5: and the Seahawks are the I think the four best 609 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 5: teams in football right now. 610 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 4: How good is that Texans defense? 611 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, yes. 612 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 5: I mean they are they are really really good. And 613 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 5: quite honestly, the Kansas City offensive line, which had three 614 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 5: starters out and then lost their backup left tackle on 615 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 5: the first play of the game. They actually didn't do 616 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 5: a really poor job against that Houston defense and rush. 617 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 5: But the Houston the between the rush of four man 618 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 5: and the secondary, the secondary has every one of their 619 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 5: interceptions this year. They are really an opportunistic defense. I 620 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 5: and again, you have a strong defense, especially when you 621 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 5: go into cold weather into the playoffs. 622 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 3: You got a shot. Yep. 623 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 4: You know what they say, Taylor, right, defense wins championships. 624 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 3: That's exactly right, Taylor. 625 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: Are you asking me to ask Mike what he prefers 626 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: watching a Yeah, the defense are a great offense. 627 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 4: His answer is going to be defense. Mike ye knows 628 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 4: that it's always defense. 629 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, always a great defense, without question. 630 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 4: He hates offense. 631 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 632 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 5: I don't need to see the scoreboard lit up to say, 633 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 5: oh that was a great game, not by any stretch. 634 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: You love a you know, a little thirteen to ten 635 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 1: defensive struggle, You love. 636 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 3: That, right absolutely. I mean like the game I was posing, 637 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 3: you know, the. 638 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 5: Texans Kansas City game was was ten to ten in 639 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter, and I still don't know why Andy 640 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 5: Reid went for it on fourth and one from his 641 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 5: own thirty one yard line and in a ten to 642 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 5: ten game that his defense had been dominating in the 643 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 5: second half. 644 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, are you saying, mikeya that he likes field position 645 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: more than more than seeing an eighty yard touchdown? Because 646 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: I think I'm with you, right, A great punt that 647 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: pins somebody, Oh. 648 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely, with an eighty yard touchdown without good field position. 649 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 5: Play the that's that is true. Play the field position game. 650 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 3: Baby, It's how you won so many games in the NFL. 651 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 3: Exactly right, Yes, all. 652 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: Right, go look congrat Well I was gonna say congratulations, 653 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: congratulations on nothing. 654 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 3: Loss. 655 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 4: Notre Dame's not in the playoffs. I got graduations of 656 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 4: Marcus staying around. 657 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 5: I got no team to watch in the playoffs, no 658 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 5: team to watch in a bowl game. 659 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: And now you hate watch, Mike.
