00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 4: I don't know, almost every team, almost every team. Iowa

57
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 4: only scored thirteen. That's what they do. They're the real

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 4: heroes in this story. Purdue gets the bucket, Wisconsin gets

59
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,520

61
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: Michigan State hired Jonathan Smith though, so maybe a little

62
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: bit of progress on their front, right, Why not?

63
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 4: We had Jalen Milroe with a mill rope fourth and

64
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,920

Speaker 4: with twenty one fourth quarter points to beat A and

68
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,519

69
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 4: be the next coach at A and M. We'll see

70
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 4: if they make that official. Perhaps his last game in Kentucky.

71
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,040

74
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,400

78
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 4: State winning forty two to thirty five. Bit of a

79
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 4: shootout there. Oklahoma State needed just one win, one win

80
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 4: to get to the Big twelve title game. They needed

81
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 4: to do it over BYU. They had to make it interesting,

82
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 4: double overtime. They get the job done. They're gonna play Texas.

83

00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 4: firing Dino Babers.

99
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: North Carolina's defense is so.

100
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:10,320

Speaker 3: shout out Sabellius. Absolutely, So there you go. That is

124
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 3: your quick recap. I'm sure there was some stuff that

125
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 3: we glossed over.

126
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 4: We'll try to get through all that and much much more,

127
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 4: but your four minute recap.

128
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: Visit forballers dot com.

129
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 4: Of course, to join our community, Dan, we should we

130
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 4: should probably start with our fire starter, the big fire starter,

131
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 4: all right, Buck, It was Michigan thirty, Ohio State twenty four.

132
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, it is the game.

133
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 4: We did a live stream, a bunch of people tuning in.

134
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 4: It kind of came down to the final drive.

135
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: It was a good game. It was a good game.

136
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 4: It was a better game than we'd seen, I think

137
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 4: in the previous two meetings between these two teams.

138
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 3: It was an excellent game. I'm positive Ohio State fans

139
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: feel as if Ryan da still has not learned in

140
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 3: terms of finding the time to be aggressive, whether it's

141
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: on fourth and short at midfield, whether it's relying on

142
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 3: a run game that wasn't doing too much, especially laterally

143
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 3: over the course of this game, whether it was Kyle

144
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 3: McCord taking some time once again a few drives to

145
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: get loose and you can't blame them in that environment

146
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 3: to get loose against a very very strong Michigan defense,

147
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 3: a very strong Michigan set of corners in Will Johnson,

148
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 3: Mike Sanders. Still but the story to me is how

149
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 3: complete a game Michigan played, how much more trust it

150
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 3: seemed like there was in JJ McCarthy, especially when we

151
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 3: talked about this on the stream. I had a terrific

152
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 3: time with you, all the listeners, all the viewers watching it.

153
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 3: How Michigan on first down, started trusting JJ McCarthy. They

154
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 3: weren't predictable, they weren't going run, run, pass, they were

155
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 3: looking to play action, They had some dropbacks. They were

156
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: getting creative with their first down play calling because that

157
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: means there is faith on second and third to move

158
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 3: and stay ahead of the chains. So I thought that

159
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 3: was a big, major turning point for Michigan that they

160
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: gave Ohio State and Jym Knowles a lot more to

161
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 3: think about as this game progressed and it came to pass,

162
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 3: whether it was Colson Lovelin, whether it was Roman Wilson

163
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 3: on the still kind of sort of maybe dicey touchdown.

164
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,599
Speaker 3: I mean, it was an amazing throw, but the bobbling

165
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 3: it was ruled a touchdown. There was not evidence to

166
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 3: overrule it. I think they got that right. But what

167
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 3: a weird wobbly play it was that ended in six

168
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 3: for Michigan. Defense comes up big with the interception at

169
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 3: the end. This is a team that seems to be

170
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 3: built for the big moments in a way that Ohio

171
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 3: State just isn't. And I've been somewhat down on Kyle

172
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 3: McCord just that I don't think he is up to

173
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 3: the bar of recent Ohio State quarterback play. He made

174
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 3: throws that brought him to that far.

175
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: Well, let me stop you right there. Let me please you,

176
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 4: because we asked a question on our live stream that

177
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 4: I think really highlights the dilemma of this game. Sure,

178
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 4: your question during the stream was whether or not Kyle

179
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 4: McCord has played his last game as starting quarterback for

180
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 4: Ohio State. Now, whether he's going to transfer, go pro

181
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 4: or anything like that, but whether they're going to get

182
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 4: somebody else next year who's better.

183
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 3: Right, they're going to go to the portal and get

184
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: an enormous name.

185
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 4: Sure, he got off to a slow start in this game,

186
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 4: but then he really settled in. He grew into the game.

187
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 4: He found a rhythm through an interception on the final

188
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 4: drive that sealed the deal for Michigan.

189
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: But genuinely throughout.

190
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 4: The course of the game, as he got more comfortable,

191
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 4: made some really good throws, and he showed good pocket presence.

192
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 4: We were singing his praises at moments during this game.

193
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 4: The reason I say dilemma is because I feel like

194
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 4: pinning this all one way or another on Kyle McCord

195
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 4: does not give enough credit to the Michigan defense.

196
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: I agree because.

197
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 4: The Michigan defense was again outstanding. It's been outstanding all year.

198
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 4: Ohio State had one hundred and seven yards rushing. They

199
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 4: we're able to make this game about Kyle McCord, and

200
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 4: I think because of that he had two picks. But

201
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 4: I think ultimately it is more a story for me

202
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 4: of the Michigan defense again dictating the pace of play,

203
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 4: limiting what Ohio State could do on the ground, forcing

204
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 4: him into situations where, look, he had a lot of

205
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 4: success throwing the ball for a good chunk of the game,

206
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 4: but in high leverage moments, namely that final drive, they

207
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 4: bring the pressure, they upset his timing, he floats one

208
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 4: over the middle.

209
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: That's the ballgame.

210
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 3: It's also, by the way, just to piggyback what you're saying,

211
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 3: I think it shines a spotlight on how far Ohio

212
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: State's offensive line development has fallen. Because a lot of

213
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 3: the success that recent guys have had, be it JT. Barrett,

214
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 3: Dwayne Haskins, c J. Stroud, any of these guys, they've

215
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 3: played behind NFL offensive lines, and especially at tackle, they've

216
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 3: been undisciplined. We saw the rush up the middle at

217
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 3: times get to Kyle McCord on that last play. I

218
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 3: think it was a Michigan outside linebacker who to in.

219
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 3: I forget the name, it might have been Terrell. And

220
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: it's a difference maker. It's a difference maker for Ohio State.

221
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 3: It's noticeable in their struggles on the ground. It's noticeable

222
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 3: on the struggles that Kyle McCord has had in navigating

223
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,839
Speaker 3: and stepping up into the pocket. And so Michigan is

224
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 3: a team built to take advantage of a suspect offensive line,

225
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 3: and they very much did, just like they have these

226
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 3: past couple of years. You know, highlighted a couple of

227
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 3: years ago with Aiden Hutchinson. Absolutely, but that was a

228
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 3: better offensive line that year for Ohio State. Aiden Hutchinson's

229
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 3: an all pro, so that to me is a noticeable

230
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 3: area of concern moving forward for Ohio State. But the

231
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: story here once again is Michigan finding and adapting over

232
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 3: the course of the game. Blake Korham didn't dominate this game.

233
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 3: Donovan Edwards didn't dominate this game. Obviously, Michigan getting beat

234
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 3: up with the injury to Zach Zinter. I think at

235
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 3: the starting right guard who's been around for a while,

236
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 3: sort of the heartbeat of that offensive line. It affected

237
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 3: what Michigan felt comfortable doing somewhat but not really on offense.

238
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 3: And so again I'm gonna echo the thing I've said

239
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 3: a thousand times this year. I think winning as a

240
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 3: skill that Michigan possesses, it wasn't pretty these last couple

241
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 3: of weeks against Penn State and Maryland. It became pretty

242
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 3: and prettier over the course of this game against Ohio State,

243
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 3: a really impressive performance from the Maze and Blue, and

244
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 3: you just got the sense that it was going to

245
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 3: take a superhuman three to seven catches for Marvin Harrison

246
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 3: Junior to win this game. Anything short of that, Michigan wins.

247
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 4: Michigan won, and they didn't get him involved until later

248
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 4: in the game. It took a while, maybe because Will

249
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 4: Johnson was out in the second half. I don't know,

250
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 4: but I think you're right. This is very much a

251
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 4: game one on the margins. It was not like one

252
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 4: side dominated the other. And as you alluded at the

253
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 4: very top of this little segment here, that was evident,

254
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 4: if only through the video replay reviews, all of them

255
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 4: were very very raise or thin margins could have gone either.

256
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 4: I thought the officials did a good job, but a

257
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: lot of those moments where they cut to Dean Blandino

258
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: and Dino doesn't want to give an opinion because he

259
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 4: doesn't want to be wrong, and instead of giving you

260
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 4: an opinion on the call, he just kind of tells

261
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 4: you the rules so he can make up your own judgment. Yeah,

262
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 4: you know, one of those, But I agree, an impressive

263
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 4: win for Michigan, a less conservative game plan, I thought,

264
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 4: all told by Sharon Moore, seemed like he was a

265
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 4: little bit more in charge of the pace of play

266
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 4: with some of his calls going forward on fourth down

267
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 4: in the way that Ryan Day was not.

268
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,439
Speaker 3: I said it as it happened that first half, fourth

269
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 3: and one from I think their own forty six.

270
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 4: It was the second drive of the game. It was

271
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 4: fourth and one from their own forty six. He elected

272
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 4: the punt in a scoreless game.

273
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 3: With a great defense. It's not like he's covering for

274
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 3: something and playing field position because he's worried about his

275
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 3: defense giving up eighty great defense.

276
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 4: They asked him about it after the game. He said

277
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 4: he didn't want to surrender momentum. Okay, that's one approach,

278
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 4: as sort of the clad approach. If you flutched and

279
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 4: listen to Joel clad at all so far this season.

280
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, the Clatypus Cup, the team that decides to

281
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 3: punt the most and going for its situation. Yeah, I

282
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 3: momentum is fake and it's insane.

283
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 4: There were other instances in this game where Ryan Day

284
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 4: sort of elected for the more conservative approach. Meanwhile, it

285
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 4: seems like truly Sharon Moore was riding on the underthink

286
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 4: express a. He went forward in moments where it seemed

287
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 4: like it worked. He had a good team obviously that

288
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: was able to deliver. And Michigan goes onto the Big

289
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 4: Ten Championship. I said in the recap at the top,

290
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 4: they're going to square off against Iowa. At time of recording,

291
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 4: they're about a twenty three point favorite. The over under

292
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 4: is only thirty five points. We can talk about that

293
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 4: one when we do our Wednesday preview of Championship Week.

294
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 4: But a gutty win in a big spot at home,

295
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 4: given all these circumstances for Michigan, and I thought they

296
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 4: rose to the moment, So good on them.

297
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 3: I don't think Michigan's good enough to win a playoff

298
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 3: game in the last they play Florida State or something like,

299
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 3: I still have a lot of questions. Let's talk about

300
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 3: that in the roast. We'll do with that. Okay, continue, Let's.

301
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 4: Roast Michigan a little bit, please, just to keep this

302
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 4: show fair and balanced.

303
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: Okay, let's go over to the Iron Ball.

304
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: Okay, Yes, twenty seven to twenty four was the actual final.

305
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 4: So the last forty seconds of this game were absolute madness,

306
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 4: absolute madness. When I sait at the top that we

307
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 4: finally had some weirdness, we finally had some weirdness.

308
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: This game was nuts.

309
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 4: Auburn forced Alabama to a fourth and goal from the

310
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 4: thirty one yard line.

311
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: If they stop Bama, it's over.

312
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 4: They win the Iron Bowl at home, a huge upset

313
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 4: twenty four to twenty Jalen Milroe snaps the ball he

314
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 4: has all day. Because it's a two man rush, they

315
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 4: drop one guy to spy him in case he decides

316
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 4: to run. Yeah, he throws an absolute dart to the

317
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 4: back corner of the end zone. Isaiah Bond hauls it in.

318
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 4: He's got like almost inconceivable man coverage.

319
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: He's open, jumps up, gets.

320
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 3: A good corner. By the way, transferred from Morgan, he's

321
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 3: from the South. DJ James a very good corner.

322
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 4: Just a ridiculous throw and catch it and catch here

323
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 4: almost in even more ridiculous laps in defense. I don't

324
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 4: know how that happens. But Alabama scores a touchdown. Then

325
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 4: Bama gives the ball back to Auburn. They kick it often.

326
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 4: About thirty seconds left, Peyton Thorne gets sacked. He loses

327
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 4: the ball, almost goes for his safety, does not. They

328
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 4: barely get the next snap off before time expires. He

329
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 4: throws what looks like a pick six.

330
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: To Terry and Arnold.

331
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 4: Though they waved off that touchdown they said he was

332
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 4: out at the three yard line. Your final was twenty

333
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 4: seven to twenty four in the Iron Bowl. This game

334
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 4: was crazy, Dan, This game was crazy. It tells us

335
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 4: a lot I think about how we should feel about

336
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 4: Alabama going into this Georgia matchup. It says a lot

337
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 4: about rivalry week and why we always say to throw

338
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 4: the records out. This game, to me, embodied what this

339
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 4: week is supposed to be.

340
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: I totally agree. And you sort of skip.

341
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 3: You didn't skip because that was obviously the biggest moment,

342
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 3: But how we even got to that moment with Jalen

343
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 3: Molroe coming up just short near the goal line to

344
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 3: set up fourth and short. They get the fourth down conversion.

345
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 3: I think it was roydlle Williams tossed to the right

346
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 3: and then a bad snap and then Jalen Molroe throws

347
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 3: it past the line of scrimmage, backing them up to

348
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 3: the thirty one fourth and goal From the thirty one

349
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 3: Auburn rushing kind of two. I know there was a

350
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 3: third guy in there, but he was sort of a spy.

351
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 3: He wasn't rushing the passer. So that was a decision,

352
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 3: and that was a decision. Auburn was not rushing a

353
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 3: ton of guys, electing to, you know, keep a spy around, which,

354
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 3: by the way, doesn't work like it there's always an

355
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 3: angle until there isn't, which Jalen ed just that's how

356
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 3: it works. He's just incredible, and the exact moment you

357
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 3: think that he's only a runner, he finds Jermaine Burton

358
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 3: streaking down the sideline or just makes a ridiculous throw.

359
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 3: I cannot believe Nick Saban mentioned that they practice that

360
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 3: kind of play.

361
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: He said it, yeah, he but he did call he

362
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: said like believe it or not? Yeah, something, he said,

363
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 1: believe it or not we practiced that type of thing.

364
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 4: But then he qualified it this is that in the

365
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 4: post game when he was talking to Jenny Dell, he says,

366
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 4: it's still kind of just like throwing it up right still,

367
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 4: like the knowledge is like you practice it.

368
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 1: You have to know where your bearings are yet, But

369
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: it is smart. The way that it played out.

370
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 3: They did isolate Isaiah Bond on one side of the

371
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 3: field for a one on one play and whether that's

372
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 3: Auburn's you know, fault and you know coming up short,

373
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 3: that's an easy discussion to have, but I think you

374
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 3: got to send more than two. Just call me old fashioned,

375
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 3: but with the game on the line, you need to

376
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 3: force somebody to make a quicker decision than what Jayalen

377
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 3: Lauro was forced into. So yeah, can I tell you

378
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 3: the good news about Auburn. I thought it was a

379
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,239
Speaker 3: super smart and savvy game plan. The way that they

380
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 3: ran Jarquees Hunter, the way that they ran Peyton Thorn,

381
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 3: a lot of what we saw that worked against Georgia.

382
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 3: I thought a lot of the defense was really smart

383
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 3: and they played hard. They got big stops. They forced

384
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 3: Alabama to be uncomfortable a lot more than of course

385
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 3: the tide wanted to be. You get the muffed punt

386
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 3: there at the end, which affects things like Auburn is,

387
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 3: you know, not good enough to avoid those mistakes. Yet

388
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 3: Auburn's going to finish their season losing to New Mexico

389
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 3: State and absolutely giving away an Iron Bowl at home.

390
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: It hurts.

391
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 3: It's going to hurt for three hundred plus days moving forward.

392
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 3: But if there's any positive then this is not a

393
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: moral victory thing.

394
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: Like the plan was sound well, it felt yeah. I

395
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: mean I jotted down here that the.

396
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 3: Execution was ninety three percent sound yeah.

397
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 4: I jotted down that there were moments in this game

398
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 4: where it felt like Hugh freeze out. Coach Nick Saban, Sure,

399
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 4: And if you're an Auburn fan like you'll take that.

400
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 4: You'll take that because this is always going to be

401
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 4: a transition year and assuming he can infuse that program

402
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 4: with a little more talent and they can be a

403
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 4: little bit more balanced. Look, they threw for ninety three

404
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 4: yards in this game. They ran for two forty four

405
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 4: when everyone knew it was coming. So on some level,

406
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 4: that pretty good coaching and that's pretty good execution, at

407
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 4: least on one side of the ball. This is an

408
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 4: ongoing project for Auburn, and whatever your thoughts on Hugh Freeze,

409
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 4: put him aside. He did a good job coaching football

410
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 4: in this game, because this is a very good Alabama defense,

411
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 4: and coming out of it, this game had me questioning

412
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 4: how they're going to look against Georgia. The line for

413
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 4: Georgia in that game next week, at least the time

414
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 4: of recording all this is going to change four and

415
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 4: a half in favor of the Dogs. I feel like

416
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 4: Georgia is a much more finished product now. Georgia struggled

417
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 4: a little bit with Georgia Tech, and Georgia Tech moved

418
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 4: the ball better than almost anybody in this game that

419
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 4: they played tonight, in the clean, old fashioned hate rivalry,

420
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 4: which we'll talk about here momentarily. But I came away

421
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 4: very impressed by Auburn. I came away very impressed with

422
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 4: Jalen Milrew. He's gone a long way since being a

423
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 4: liability the first couple weeks now to basically be in

424
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 4: the centerpiece the last couple of games for Alabama. But

425
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 4: ultimately you survive in advance a rivalry week, especially on

426
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 4: the road, and Alabama got the job done. So I

427
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 4: give him a lot of credit for winning in the

428
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 4: manner that they did. However, however random it might have felt,

429
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 4: given the way that thing shook out down the stretch.

430
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 3: Man Ron Roberts in the Auburn defense stupendous hairline. So

431
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 3: there's that. Yeah, he's got Auburn's defensive coordinator.

432
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 4: But all right, another survive in advance situation. The apple

433
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 4: cuped in. Yes, Washington wins twenty four to twenty one

434
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 4: on a forty two yard field goal at the gun.

435
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 4: I feel like I wasn't smart enough to.

436
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: Understand the ending of this game.

437
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,199
Speaker 3: A walk on kicker, I believe as well, who got

438
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 3: a scholarship in the locker room right after.

439
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 4: I feel like I was not smart enough to understand

440
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 4: what was happening down the stretch. And then when you

441
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 4: understand a little bit more about the context and the

442
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 4: kicker and maybe some of the uncertainty Washington was insisting

443
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 4: on throwing the ball late in this game.

444
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: Late in this game, they.

445
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 4: Were clearly within what would be normal field goal range

446
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 4: for most kickers, with like twenty seconds left. Within the

447
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 4: span of the last minute, Michael Pennix could have thrown two,

448
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 4: maybe three interceptions yes, if Wazoo could have held onto

449
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 4: a couple more balls in this game, they probably win,

450
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 4: whether on offense or defense or whatever. But Washington gets

451
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 4: the bounces in that sense, Washington puts himself in the

452
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 4: situation to kick that forty two yarder at the gun

453
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 4: and they end up getting the w They were always

454
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 4: going to be playing in Vegas, and they were always

455
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 4: going to be playing against Oregon by virtue of the

456
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 4: Ducks win resounding win on Friday night. But this is

457
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 4: a game a lot of us had circled because there

458
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 4: was clearly some baggageer with the Washington Wazoo matchup, given

459
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 4: that Washington is leaving the conference and Wazoo feels a

460
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 4: bit left for dead. There was also a really high

461
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 4: point spread which just did not make sense to you

462
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 4: and I given where Washington has been as a team

463
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 4: over the last eight weeks or so, They've played a

464
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 4: lot of close games, Dan, They've gotten the job done,

465
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 4: they've won those moments. They've got good players. Yes, it

466
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: has been way too close for comfort, they have not

467
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 4: given that separation, and that's part of why we both

468
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:07,120
Speaker 4: like Wazoo. Wazoo came close, but Wazu did not get

469
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 4: the job done.

470
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 3: No, well, I forget what the spread was heading into

471
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 3: sixteen seventeen points. That's just not how Washington was winning games,

472
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 3: especially since that Oregon game. And we talk about the

473
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 3: season being a living, breathing thing. Washington to start the year,

474
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 3: the first half of the season absolutely lethal, slicing and

475
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 3: dicing teams like Boise State, Michigan State, some Pac twelve teams,

476
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 3: really looking crazy impressive, and they just haven't looked the

477
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 3: same since.

478
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: Now.

479
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 3: They're like my bear Grills team of the week because

480
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 3: their survival skills. Nobody drinks their own pea as quickly

481
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 3: and thirstily as the Washington Huskies, right. They do whatever

482
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 3: it takes to survive pas sterile. By the way, you

483
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 3: can fact check that is that true.

484
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: Tie. I've watched Urine, I've watched plenty of bear grills.

485
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,360
Speaker 3: I'm so well aware it sounds like I'm putting Washington down.

486
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 3: I'm absolutely not winning. As a skill, Washington is very

487
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 3: good at taking advantage of bounces, at figuring out where

488
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 3: the opportunities lie. If it's beating USC in a shootout

489
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 3: in LA, that all counts. It's a crazy impressive year.

490
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 3: Nobody has ever I think gone undefeated in the Pac

491
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 3: twelve era.

492
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: They just did it.

493
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,239
Speaker 3: Seemed to take an emotional toll on Michael Pennix near

494
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 3: the end of the game. He made some great throws

495
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 3: to Roma Dunza. Otherwise he seemed off. The running game

496
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 3: seemed off. The defense has kind of looked like what

497
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 3: the defense has been this year. Opportunistic when you know

498
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 3: they get a hand in the air and swatting a

499
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 3: pass and it popping up, which they got. That key

500
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 3: interception had an amazing call and a high leverage moment.

501
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,479
Speaker 3: I think it was a fourth and short where they

502
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 3: called the reverse to Roma Dunza and that a touchdown

503
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 3: saving tackle from a corner who made his way around

504
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 3: the field for Wazoo. A crazy heads up play. But

505
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,719
Speaker 3: for whatever reason, Washington is not finding the second, third, fourth,

506
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 3: fifth level right that they're not figuring out how to

507
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 3: set things up over the course of the season where

508
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 3: the back shoulder throws to Roma Dunza and you know,

509
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 3: getting big plays or finding broken play to you know

510
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 3: whoever it is. Jalen McMillan, finally healthy, Jalen Pok. These

511
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 3: guys are great receivers, but the offense hasn't really evolved

512
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 3: over the course of the season, and teams have caught

513
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 3: up and they're very good. They're very very good. What

514
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 3: they just completed was something that's crazy impressive. But I

515
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 3: don't feel like they've grown over the course of the year.

516
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 3: And whether it's against Oregon, whether it's in a playoff game,

517
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 3: I think this is sort of an LRO moment where

518
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 3: you can only get out gained and find those fourth

519
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 3: quarter moments long enough, and then you suit up against

520
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 3: whatever Oregon is now, whatever Georgia is, whatever Texas is,

521
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 3: whatever Michigan is, and it doesn't work like it works

522
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 3: against Wazoo or cal or Arizona State.

523
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 4: Here's the interesting factoid. Yeah, time of recording. I'm gonna

524
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 4: do this for all of the upcoming championship games, just

525
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 4: because they think it adds context. Oregon favored by nine,

526
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 4: Oregon favor by nine over Washington. My hunch, my hunch

527
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 4: is that number comes down. My hunch is that number

528
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 4: arrives somewhere around seven or seven and a half. I've

529
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 4: been wrong all year. I wasn't wrong this week. I

530
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 4: did pretty well with my picks. But it seems to

531
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 4: me like people are gonna see that line and think

532
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 4: that's a lot for two teams that can score. The

533
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 4: over under is about sixty seven to sixty eight points.

534
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,920
Speaker 4: I feel like I'm gonna come down on the side

535
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 4: of Oregon, just given the way that Oregon has played

536
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 4: over the last however many weeks. Now it seems like

537
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 4: it seems like that game that they played against Washington

538
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 4: way back when, now that one got away from them

539
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 4: in the final minute. They made a decision that did

540
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 4: not pay off, a little too much riverboat gambler for

541
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 4: Dan Lanning, and if they punt it, it's a much

542
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 4: different story, and Oregon maybe is here undefeated. Sure, But

543
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 4: that being said, Washington continues to win these moments, and

544
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 4: so that is.

545
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: A skill as well.

546
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 4: Much the way we will make this analogy again, much

547
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 4: the way it was for TCU a year ago when

548
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 4: we all had doubts about their defense or their team

549
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 4: or can they keep doing this? Washington again keeps doing it.

550
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 4: They've played a lot of close games. They're nothing if

551
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 4: not battle tested, and they're going to have a big

552
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 4: rematch next week Friday night in Vegas. So we'll talk

553
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 4: more about that on our Wednesday preview show. Anything more

554
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 4: to add on the Apple Cup. No.

555
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 3: I mean, look, if you're playing close games against Washington State,

556
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 3: if you're playing close games against USC and Arizona State

557
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 3: and Stanford, it's good to win those close games. It

558
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 3: doesn't speak volumes about where your program stacks up on

559
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 3: the national stage at this moment.

560
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 4: Let's go over to the Florida State Florida game. Okay,

561
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 4: so called Florida Cup.

562
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: So a lot of attention was on tate Rodemaker getting

563
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: the start for Florida State after.

564
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 3: The who you were immediately out on upon his entrance

565
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 3: into the stadium.

566
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: I thought he looked like a dorky gamer. Yeah, I'll

567
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: bey you.

568
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 3: Thanks gonna be true. You can win this game and

569
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 3: look like a dorky gamer.

570
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 4: He looked like a dorky gamer when they showed the

571
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 4: shot of him walking into the State and he just

572
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 4: did he did, I look like a dorky gamer. I'm

573
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 4: a podcaster, so that's not necessarily as a slight. But

574
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 4: did not necessarily carry himself as the starting quarterback for

575
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 4: Florida State. We mentioned it briefly on the preview. Yeah,

576
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 4: talked about a lot about tate Rodamaker. Did not talk

577
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 4: enough perhaps about Graham Mertz also being out. So Graham

578
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 4: Mertz broke his collarbone, he was out. That met Max Brown,

579
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 4: the freshman getting the start for Florida. I thought, over

580
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 4: the course of this one, it felt fairly even. It

581
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 4: felt like a fairly even matchup given how bad the

582
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 4: Florida defense has been the fact that they went into

583
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter only had.

584
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 3: Like a gang wailing on each other with fungo bats.

585
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: I mean kinda, yeah.

586
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 4: I mean the fact that they went into the fourth quarter, yeah,

587
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 4: and had only given up fourteen points.

588
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: That felt like a.

589
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 3: Huge dub to me, right, yes, absolutely, So that being said,

590
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 3: Florida had itself in a good position I felt to

591
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 3: win this football game. And Florida continued doing what it

592
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 3: has done all season, and that is it continued shooting

593
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 3: itself in the flo whacking itself with the fungal back

594
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 3: whacking itself in the head with the fungal. It has

595
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 3: been this way all season. They were ninety third in

596
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 3: the nation coming into this game with six and a

597
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 3: half penalties per game. In this one, they had a

598
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 3: guy get booted for spitting on another player. They also

599
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 3: had a key targeting call double targeting. Yeah, like two

600
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 3: guys targeting call Kate.

601
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 4: Rodimaker scrambling, two guys go down, he gets bunked in

602
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,719
Speaker 4: the head. He came back and it looks like he's okay.

603
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 4: I hope that gives Florida State a first down. It

604
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 4: gives them another opportunity, another bite at the apple. Trey

605
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 4: Benson runs it in for his third touchdown. Absolutely maddening.

606
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 4: I am not suggesting Billion Napier should be fired. I'm

607
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 4: just going to say that these are the types of

608
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 4: things that have people consider again whether or not Billion

609
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 4: Napier should be fired because if.

610
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 3: Their own backup quarterback, right, this is not a Grammertz game.

611
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 4: Just a lot of dumb listen Dan, a lot of

612
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 4: dumb stuff on defense, and this was a team that

613
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 4: had countless.

614
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: Questions about their defense coming into the season.

615
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 4: It was the big question outside of Graham Mertz, which

616
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 4: was probably the headliner and oh my gosh, I can't

617
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 4: believe they got Graham. Outside of that, the big question

618
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 4: was their defense because their defense last year is stunk.

619
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 4: Their defense this year has also stunk, and they have

620
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 4: continued shooting themselves in the foot that is coaching.

621
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 3: And hired a new young exciting coach away from Alabama

622
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 3: after he's there for like a month or something like that.

623
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is.

624
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 4: Coaching, and so I, like BILLI Napier, I still stand

625
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 4: by the fact that I think it was a good hire.

626
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: I want them to give him more time. But this

627
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: is coaching.

628
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 4: And in a game like this where they had Florida

629
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 4: State on the ropes and it was an ideal situation

630
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 4: playing at home at night against a backup quarter all

631
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 4: of these things were in their favor, and they still

632
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 4: lost twenty four to fifteen.

633
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 3: That's neither one of these teams should ever have a

634
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 3: bad defense. No, And there's talent on this defense. We

635
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 3: saw the guys make plays up front. We saw speed

636
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 3: on this defense, sometimes utilize super wisely, sometimes less than

637
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 3: It's a broken defense at the moment. And I don't

638
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 3: know if it's a culture thing. I don't know if

639
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 3: it's the right guys for this, the kind of defense,

640
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 3: a fit thing, whatever it is. It didn't seem like

641
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 3: the effort in discipline were there in an extraordinarily winnable

642
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 3: moment at home against a backup quarterback in a rivalry game.

643
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 3: You don't need to score a ton of points to

644
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 3: win that game. Offensively, you understand why they're going to

645
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 3: be limited with Max Brown, but even still they were

646
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 3: able to generate some bigger plays on the ground. You

647
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 3: don't need to do a ton. The problem is Florida

648
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 3: State's defense is excellent. It's fully excellent. So that's still

649
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 3: going to be a tall task. But the way this

650
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 3: defense performed against the Florida State offense was with opportunities

651
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 3: to capitalize and win. I'm obviously preaching to a Florida

652
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 3: fan base that knows this already crazy disappointing.

653
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: It's very disappointing.

654
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 4: So further context, again, Florida State next week minus five.

655
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: And a half against will be the LACC championship. We yep.

656
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 4: It's a very very interesting line to me, very interesting

657
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 4: line to me because Louisville we'll talk about the Governor's

658
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 4: Cup here shortly, but Louisville I think can push Florida

659
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 4: State in ways that Florida couldn't, if only because Jack

660
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 4: Plummer has gotten better throughout the course of the year.

661
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 4: They've done more with him. The offense is definitely more varied.

662
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 4: I don't know if they've played anyone who's good as

663
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 4: Florida State, and.

664
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: That's probably a separate topic altogether.

665
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 4: But all that being said, that game to me now

666
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 4: looks very interesting as compared to a couple of weeks

667
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 4: ago when I thought it was Jordan Travis who was

668
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 4: going to be the.

669
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: Who was in the stadium by the way, who's good

670
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 1: to see stadium?

671
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, such a bummer, huge bummer that he's not playing.

672
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 4: But Tate Rodimaker came in, you know, didn't commit any

673
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 4: huge mistakes. We'll see what they do with them in

674
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 4: some of these high leverage spots. I kind of stand

675
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 4: by what I said a week ago. This Florida State

676
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 4: team that we saw today probably not good enough to

677
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 4: win a playoff game. But if they went against Louisville,

678
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 4: if they win against Louville, you got to.

679
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: Put him in. You gotta put it.

680
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 3: Depends how they beat Louisville. I still think that the

681
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 3: manner matters. I think magnitude, man or whatever. I still

682
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 3: think it matters. If they're beating Louisville and four overtimes,

683
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 3: ten to seven, I don't know, and you see the rest.

684
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 3: I'm willing to accept context and not just a win

685
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 3: in your end moment. If they look kind of trash

686
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 3: against Louisville in a winning effort.

687
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: So look, we're gonna get to our favorite things are

688
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 4: warm fuzzies as we call them here on the recap show. Yes,

689
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:28,840

Speaker 1: All that stuff really help. Should we get to favorite

694
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: things from the weekly.

695
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 4: Let's do it, warm fuzzies, Dan, this is a campfire,

696
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 4: isn't it.

697
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah?

698
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,479
Speaker 3: I wonder who it feels especially warm and happy because

699
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 3: breaking news. I don't know if you have the sound

700
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 3: we mentioned Mark Stoops. As far as we can tell now,

701
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 3: Pete the Hamil reporting, Mark Stoop's not going to Texas

702
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 3: A and ol okay, and he's going to stay at Kentucky.

703
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 3: So look, this is not a live show unless people

704
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 3: are watching it live. But this is podcast a podcast primarily,

705
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 3: so we'll see if we all know by the time

706
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 3: you listen. But we don't know.

707
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: In this moment. A and M supposedly wanted to get

708
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: a coach in place by the end of the weekend.

709
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 1: We'll see if that happens.

710
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 4: Okay, we'll see if we'll see if that happens, Dan,

711
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 4: give me a warm fuzzy or too.

712
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: Will you?

713
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 3: I will absolutely give you a warm fuzzy because we

714
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 3: talked about Washington. In the PAC twelve championship game, Oregon

715
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 3: laid waste to Oregon State. Yeah, and it was ugly

716
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 3: almost from the jump because Oregon's defensive line, specifically Brandon Dorriles,

717
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 3: who's all Conference if not All American caliber, completely overwhelmed

718
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 3: anybody that they threw at him, and Dju was overwhelmed.

719
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 3: His own little brother got in on a sack of

720
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 3: him by pushing a left tackle into him. Oregon's that

721
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 3: the warm fuzzy with Oregon the defensive line, and bo

722
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 3: Nicks was just an absolute stud playmaker. Whatever your opinion

723
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 3: of the Heisman, he's absolutely Heisman worthy of Heisman caliber

724
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 3: him or Jayden Daniels, I think it's a two man field.

725
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 3: Whatever your preference is, it's not wrong. So uh Jo

726
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 3: bo Nicks was great. They actually didn't run the ball

727
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 3: all that well. The play calling was very good for

728
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 3: Oregon as the game developed, and I think it was

729
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 3: just the defense that Oregon brought to this game against

730
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 3: a good if not very good Oregon State offense, they've

731
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 3: run the ball these past couple of years super well.

732
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 3: Oregon did not even with down a starting quarter, Oregon

733
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 3: did not flinch at all. And this game wasn't even

734
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 3: as close as the final score what was it thirty

735
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 3: one seven thirty one syndicates, It was almost never in doubt,

736
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 3: even when it was like fourteen to seven, fourteen, nothing, whatever.

737
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 3: It just did not feel like Oregon State belonged on

738
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 3: the same field.

739
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,919
Speaker 4: You and I were messaging back and forth. It did

740
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,240
Speaker 4: feel like Oregon State.

741
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: Was out of juice.

742
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, it felt like it was the end of the

743
00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 4: road a long season. And I'm not even saying that

744
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 4: as a knock. I mean, it's a long season for

745
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 4: these guys, but it's a long season for us covering it,

746
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 4: or we can only imagine what it's like playing and

747
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,280
Speaker 4: they they seemed like they were out of jews.

748
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and look after the game against Washington and now

749
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 3: with the obviously then surrounding rumors involving Jonathan Smith and

750
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 3: his move to Michigan State which is now confirmed and official,

751
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 3: and their situation where like, oh, this is their last

752
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 3: PAC twelve Power Conference game that they will play for ever,

753
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 3: for the foreseeable future.

754
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 1: Whatever there was just there's a lot.

755
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 3: Of sadness I would say, around or potential sadness at

756
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 3: that time around Oregon State. I feel bad. I like playing,

757
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 3: like watching my team play in the same conference as

758
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 3: Oregon State, and it's a fun rivalry, and so it

759
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 3: just there's only so much you can do. And certainly

760
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 3: that had to contribute to it. I just also happened

761
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 3: to think two things being true at once. Oregon's way

762
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:54,879
Speaker 3: better than Oregon State.

763
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 4: Can I tell you what gave me the warm fuzzies

764
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 4: as we sit here right in the campfire?

765
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah? Can I talk for a minut?

766
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 4: Can we all take a knee and talk about the crazy,

767
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 4: stupid Big ten West would love to What is not

768
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 4: to love about this side of the conference? What is

769
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 4: not to love about it?

770
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 3: Okay, Minnesota throwing the ball forward? Iowa throwing the ball forward?

771
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 1: Iowa won? How much time to take?

772
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 3: Yeah?

773
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: They won thirteen to ten.

774
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 4: They hit the under on the lowest total ever in

775
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 4: a college football game. The total was twenty four and

776
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 4: a half points. They won in the most improbable way possible.

777
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 4: They threw a pick and then they reintercepted Nebraska. On

778
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 4: the ensuing drive, the guy runs it to within field

779
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 4: goal range, a thirty eight yard game winner by a

780
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 4: backup kicker. Iowa is ten to two. They have scored

781
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 4: two hundred and sixteen points. I don't know where that

782
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 4: puts them historically. It is not in the top I

783
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 4: can tell you that much. Meanwhile, we had Northwestern in

784
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 4: Illinois randomly in a shootout.

785
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 3: Did you see it's the third best Iowa offense of

786
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,760
Speaker 3: all time. I'm just I'm just kidding.

787
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 4: Continue forty five, forty three Northwestern and Illinois randomly get

788
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 4: into a shootout eighty eight points. I haven't done the

789
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 4: state school math on what percentage of Iowa's total that is,

790
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 4: but eighty eight points the Cats scoring forty five to

791
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 4: get win number seven. I have to believe that's going

792
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 4: to clinch Big Ten Coach of the Year for David Brown.

793
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 3: You would think so. And Northwestern what a field goal

794
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 3: and Iowa field goal away from appearing in Indianapolis as

795
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 3: the Big tenn West, the final Big Ten West representative

796
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 3: in the Big Ten championship game. Yeah, as long as

797
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,359
Speaker 3: you're getting the ball to a guy named Cam Northwestern's

798
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 3: in great shape on offense.

799
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 4: The Perdue Indiana game for the Old Oaken Bucket was

800
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 4: back and forth and a ton of fun, A good

801
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 4: game for our friend Heisman card three sixty and total yards,

802
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 4: four touchdowns, and shout out Wisconsin, Shout out Wisconsin. You know,

803
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 4: I was confident about that game. And you were like,

804
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 4: why are you so confident about Wisconsin? And I said, yeah, Dan,

805
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 4: let me tell you why Minnesota stinks.

806
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I also took Wisconsin. I just didn't appreciate

807
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 3: all of the warmth that you were putting into the universe.

808
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 4: Continue also fair, Minnesota does stink, and Wisconsin ran over them.

809
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: They ran over them. They end up winning Paul Bunyan's acts.

810
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:23,479
Speaker 4: So the Big Ten West continues to be like very

811
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 4: oddly curious in all the weird wrong ways that we're

812
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 4: not supposed to be curious about college football. It's the

813
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 4: kind of thing that you browse on incognito mode because

814
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,479
Speaker 4: you're curious but don't want anyone to know it. That's

815
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 4: the Big Ten West. And that's what we got in

816
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 4: week thirteen. What else you got?

817
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, things are also about to become scary as

818
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,240
Speaker 3: well as also true. You're gonna start playing Michigan, Ohio

819
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 3: State in Oregon a lot more than you're used to.

820
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 3: What else do I have in my warm fuzzies. I've

821
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 3: got a bunch of warm fuzzies. Kendall Milton absolutely abusing

822
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 3: Georgia Tech and carrying Georgia across the finish line against

823
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,919
Speaker 3: a particularly risky, feisty which I think we're two words

824
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 3: are used in your online dating profile to all that

825
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 3: time not current. I don't know if you've ever had

826
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 3: one Georgia Tech team who ran the ball really well,

827
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 3: fought really hard, got quality stops against this Georgia offense,

828
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:18,320
Speaker 3: especially made plays against the Georgia passing attack. But Kendall

829
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 3: Milton willing this team on the road in what could

830
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 3: have been an upset spot, but I thought he was terrific.

831
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 4: Well, since you mentioned Georgia Tech, so that that game

832
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 4: was thirty one to twenty three. Georgia beat Georgia Tech

833
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 4: kleanal fashion hate game. Georgia Tech game three hundred and

834
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 4: sixty three yards, which was exactly as much as Massoo

835
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks ago, and Georgia Tech scored twenty

836
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 4: three points, which is actually the most anyone has scored

837
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,479
Speaker 4: against Georgia this season. Right now, there's six win team

838
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 4: projected to go to the Pinstripe Bowl against Rutgers. If

839
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 4: they play Rutgers, they will beat Rutgers. They will get

840
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 4: seven wins. There is still a lot to improve for

841
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 4: Brent Key, okay, but one thing has been pretty consistent

842
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 4: in his time as coach.

843
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: They play for him. They play for him.

844
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 4: Had his moments towards the end of last season, okay,

845
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 4: but by and large, this as a team that has

846
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,919
Speaker 4: gotten better, continues to be feist he Haines King.

847
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,879
Speaker 1: I think looked really good in this game.

848
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 4: And they play hard. And if you play hard, especially

849
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 4: late in the season, especially in the ACC, you're gonna

850
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 4: snipe some teams. Man, you're just gonna So I give

851
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:27,760
Speaker 4: Georgia Tech a lot of credit. I had them jotted

852
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 4: down as one of my warm fuzzies as well, something

853
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 4: that just made me feel good about watching college football,

854
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 4: because to play Georgia to a thirty one to twenty

855
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 4: three game is I think an accomplishment in and of itself,

856
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 4: but to do so in a way that didn't feel

857
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 4: like it was smoking mirrors was really cool.

858
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 3: I'll stay on the topic of SEC running backs with

859
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 3: warm fuzzies because Cody Schrader has now rushed for like

860
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 3: fifteen hundred yards and it's the best running back in

861
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 3: the SEC. And guess what another good running back in

862
00:41:54,200 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 3: the SEC? L Ray Ray Davis Kentucky over Louisville straight time.

863
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 3: Also Barrion Brown very good. A great performance from Kentucky.

864
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 3: An up and down season, starts out promising, falls off

865
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 3: a cliff, and against Louisville, a team in the top

866
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 3: what ten to twelve? Right now, Kentucky comes clawing back

867
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 3: up that mountain and comes away with the Governor's Cup.

868
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,040
Speaker 3: What do you call governor, the governor, the governess.

869
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: The Governor's Cup.

870
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I included this in a section that I

871
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 4: just kind of jotted down in my note sheet as

872
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 4: cups runneth over, because there were some fun cup games,

873
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 4: right Kentucky won the Governor's Cup thirty eight thirty one.

874
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 4: It was a fun game that was in the shadow

875
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 4: of Ohio State Michigan because they were both in the

876
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 4: early block. But Lillieville gets out to a lead, Kentucky's

877
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 4: defense steps up. JJ Weaver, the linebacker had a huge game.

878
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 4: L Ray our guy Ray Davis one hundred and twenty

879
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 4: seven total yards, three touchdowns, including the thirty seven yard

880
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,439
Speaker 4: game winner with about a minute left. That was one

881
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 4: Cup game. Another was the Commonwealth Cup. Now we liked

882
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 4: Virginia Tech in this game. I think we looked at

883
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 4: the point spread. We saw Anthony Calandria was playing for

884
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 4: Virginia and he's a bit of a gun slinger.

885
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: Sure total wild card.

886
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,439
Speaker 4: And UVA has played well down the stretch. They haven't

887
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 4: gotten a lot to show for it, but they've played

888
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 4: better and they're feisty. Virginia Tech won fifty five seventeen

889
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 4: over Virginia on the road. Tech not only got Bowl elgible,

890
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 4: they hung fifty five points in five hundred yards on

891
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 4: their rival, and they had a ton of big plays

892
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,760
Speaker 4: they scored. Listen to this on a forty four yard

893
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,399
Speaker 4: touchdown pass, a thirty three yard run, a thirty two

894
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 4: yard run and eighty four yard pass, ninety four yard

895
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 4: kickoff return, a thirty four yard.

896
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: Pass, and then just a seven yard run for good measure.

897
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 4: Ho hum. So I thought, a really good showing in

898
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,320
Speaker 4: a rivalry spot for Virginia Tech. Another team going to

899
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 4: a bowl.

900
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 3: You see what Virginia Tech tried to take a team

901
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 3: picture on the field after the game, and the Virginia

902
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 3: groundskeepers turned on all the sprinklers. That's college football, baby,

903
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 3: that's what it's all about. I love that more warm fuzzies.

904
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,400
Speaker 3: I'll stay in the sec here because both look. I

905
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 3: mentioned bon Nicks, you mentioned Jayden Daniels, and they're just

906
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 3: they're Heisman dudes. And he was incredible against Texas A

907
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 3: and M. Kind of a sluggish start, but was finding

908
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 3: the leak Neighbors was running the ball, goes over one

909
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 3: hundred yards on the ground through for like ten yards

910
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 3: per attempt, over two hundred yards through the air, was terrific,

911
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 3: found a terrific throwt to Brian Thomas, and come away

912
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 3: with what was a twelve point win over Texas A

913
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 3: and M. Jalen Henderson. I though atually it was pretty good,

914
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,320
Speaker 3: I'm not going to put A and M in my

915
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 3: scaries right now because I just I thought they played

916
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 3: relatively hard given the circumstances with an interim coach, third

917
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 3: string quarterback. They just don't really have the secondary to

918
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,239
Speaker 3: do so. But not many people have the secondary to

919
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 3: hang with. Jaden Daniels continues to be incredible. Can we

920
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 3: talk about snow games. Let's please ah the snow game, well,

921
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 3: especially an unexpected snow shootout like that doesn't happen all

922
00:44:59,640 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 3: that off.

923
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 4: A snow game does not happen often, especially in Manhattan, Kansas.

924
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,800
Speaker 4: A snow shootout almost never happens.

925
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,360
Speaker 3: We had this, especially if Iowa State is one of

926
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 3: the teams. Specially if Iowa State's one of the teams.

927
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,920
Speaker 3: This was a crazy game. This game was full on

928
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,839
Speaker 3: nuts Iowa State. I just talked through all the big

929
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:19,879
Speaker 3: plays of Virginia Tech.

930
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 4: Had Iowa State had touchdowns of this is this is

931
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 4: almost impossible.

932
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: I don't even know how this is true. I looked

933
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: it up seven times. I swear to you. Listen to

934
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 1: some of these stats.

935
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 4: Iowa States scored on touchdowns of seventy one, seventy seven,

936
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 4: seventy nine, sixty thirty three, and eighty two yards to

937
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:39,919
Speaker 4: win Farmageddon.

938
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 3: Who did Abu Sama play for?

939
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 1: Abu Sama played for Iowa State. That's why.

940
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 3: That's why they had those plays, That's why they were

941
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,240
Speaker 3: able to score those points.

942
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 4: Sixteen rushes for two hundred and seventy six yards and

943
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 4: three touchdowns for a boost. Absolute dude, Yes, So they

944
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 4: only threw it twelve times. They only completed eight passes

945
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 4: Iowa State, but three of them went for touchdowns. Meanwhile,

946
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 4: k State threw it forty eight times in the snow

947
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 4: So this game, it sort of just defied conventional logic

948
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 4: and ended up being fun. Iowa State wins forty two

949
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 4: thirty five. With the way that they started their season

950
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 4: to close out the year seven and five, bear in

951
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 4: mind four of their losses were against ranked opponents. I'm

952
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:27,879
Speaker 4: sure they would have liked to have done a little

953
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 4: bit better in that capacity.

954
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: But it was a rocky go.

955
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 4: You will call that that weird exchange between Matt Campbell

956
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 4: and like a I don't know, a reporter or like

957
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 4: a Heckler or whatever.

958
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 3: It was still great lost Ohio.

959
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.

960
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 4: The way that they pulled together I thought was was

961
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,759
Speaker 4: really really nice here, So good on them. The snow

962
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,360
Speaker 4: game's always fun. If I could keep it in the

963
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 4: big twelve for a second, I still believe it all.

964
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 4: You want to give a shout out that both Texas

965
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 4: and Oklahoma, both teams played on Friday, both were dominant.

966
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 4: There were one hundred and twenty six points between the

967
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 4: two of them. Texas won by fifty over Texas Tech.

968
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 4: I described this game on our stream earlier as one

969
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 4: of those deals. And you're a big brother, you're the

970
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,879
Speaker 4: oldest of three, maybe you've done this one of those

971
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 4: situations where the big brother just holds his arm out,

972
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 4: keeps the little brother at bay, and the little brother

973
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 4: is swinging his arms trying to connect and just can't

974
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 4: do it, just flailing. That was what happened in this game.

975
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:26,760
Speaker 4: Because Texas Tech tries they might never landed a punch.

976
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 4: It was again a story of Texas and its defense

977
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 4: being rock solid, never relenting. All the talk about the

978
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 4: offense right, all to talk about the offense and Quenewers

979
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 4: and the injury to Jonathan Brooks and the receivers they've

980
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 4: got out white blah blah blah, it's the defense putting

981
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 4: them in great position.

982
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 1: Yeah.

983
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 3: It was more than like quit hitting yourself, Quit hitting

984
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 3: yourself with the every time they intercepted Baron Mortin.

985
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 1: What we got to see arch manning. It was a

986
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: pleasant surprise.

987
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 4: Texas is going to play for I think a potential

988
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 4: playoff spot next Saturday in their championship game against Oklahoma State.

989
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,439
Speaker 4: I believe they're about a eleven and a half twelve

990
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 4: point favorite.

991
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:07,359
Speaker 3: In that catchup, Stark got the monkey off his back.

992
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:11,880
Speaker 3: He got Jeff Banks's monkey back, the poul Assassins monkey

993
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 3: off his back. Not being able to close the season

994
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,160
Speaker 3: out and not be able to close second halves out

995
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 3: strong just a terrific step forward. Texas defense under Peakwakowski

996
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 3: has gotten better year over year over year, especially that

997
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 3: front just completely annihilated Texas tech up front. A great

998
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 3: great season for a great season, and you know what

999
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 3: a great season for Oklahoma too. A good season for Oklahoma.

1000
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 3: They won sixty nine to forty five. At one point

1001
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 3: in the first half, I was doing some back of

1002
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 3: the Napkin math contemplating what could happen if they if

1003
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,280
Speaker 3: they could get to one hundred, because it just felt

1004
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 3: like there was nay work getting the momentum?

1005
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 1: Was there?

1006
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:49,360
Speaker 4: Was?

1007
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 1: It really was. Dylan Gabriel looked incredible for Oklahoma in

1008
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 1: this game.

1009
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 4: Oklahoma's going to finish the year as a fringe top

1010
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 4: ten or maybe a top ten team, depending on how

1011
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 4: things shake it out in bowl season.

1012
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: By the time I'm all said and done.

1013
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 4: They finished ten to two In year two for Brent

1014
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 4: Vanna Boles defense still has ways to go, but took

1015
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 4: significant strides this season.

1016
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,959
Speaker 1: It did get better and I you know it's again.

1017
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 4: It's one of these stories that's going to probably live

1018
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:19,879
Speaker 4: in the shadow of Texas being quote unquote back. But yeah,

1019
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,479
Speaker 4: Oklahoma to play as well as they did, buying large

1020
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:24,799
Speaker 4: shroughout the course of the year. I think is a

1021
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:25,439
Speaker 4: really cool thing.

1022
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 3: You want some more warm fuzzies, Give it real quick,

1023
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 3: give it to me. Yeah, Arizona may still be scoring

1024
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:36,719
Speaker 3: against ASU. How about this one? Te Tyro McMillan title,

1025
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 3: Now Tyro to Tyro to tyroeeos ty to Tyro all

1026
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 3: right to Tyro McMillan is. Look, he might win the

1027
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,520
Speaker 3: bullet mcoff next year he goes for two sixty six

1028
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 3: against ASU. I looked up ASU beat Arizona a couple

1029
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 3: of years ago with Kevin someonin who was herm Edwards

1030
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 3: Kevin someone seventy to seven with LSU's quarterback Florida and

1031
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,720
Speaker 3: Florida State's receivers, depending on your review of Kean Coleman,

1032
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 3: one of Ohio State's better running backs, and for Arizona

1033
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 3: and Jetfish Noah Flafida at quarterback who absolutely dominate ASU.

1034
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 3: Has to feel terrific and feeling good down in the desert.

1035
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 3: It's hot fuzzies time, not just warm fuzzy uzzies. Do

Speaker 1: Absolutely, Dane, Let's get to the Saturday Scaries. You got

1073
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:30,799
Speaker 1: the sound. Let's do it the way it works here

1074
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 1: around the campfire. Dan, Rubinstein.

1075
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 4: We get the fire started, then we talk about the good,

1076
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,920
Speaker 4: and like every good campfire, you need a moment to

1077
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:44,879
Speaker 4: talk about the bad, to get it out, to have

1078
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 4: some some catharsis.

1079
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: College football is an emotional journey, is it not?

1080
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 3: Of course, always every week, every hour.

1081
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,759
Speaker 4: I want to talk about Oklahoma State fans. Alklahoma State

1082
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,240
Speaker 4: the football team giving their fans a near heart attack.

1083
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:02,360
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. The Pokes were a sixteen and a half.

1084
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:06,440
Speaker 4: Point favorite against BYU. BYU is playing a young quarterback.

1085
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,400
Speaker 4: They feel good about their quarterback, but he's young. BYU,

1086
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:12,720
Speaker 4: I think, for the most part, has kind of checked

1087
00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 4: out the back half of the schedule. All the Pokes

1088
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 4: needed was a win. All they needed was a win

1089
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,280
Speaker 4: to get to the Big Ten Big Twelve title game

1090
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 4: against Texas. They did get the win, but they needed

1091
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 4: double overtime in five touchdowns from Ali Gordon to get it.

1092
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,080
Speaker 4: At one point they were down eighteen points to BYU.

1093
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 4: This game nearly gave me a heart attack. It gave

1094
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:41,960
Speaker 4: me a heart attack. I can only imagine what it's like.

1095
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 4: I you're an Oklahoma State fan watching this game and

1096
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 4: it's already been I think a really successful campaign for

1097
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 4: the Pokes.

1098
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 1: There's just no way around it.

1099
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 4: They have exceeded expectations. They have cobbled this thing together again.

1100
00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 4: After their bye week, they went they beat Kansas State.

1101
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,920
Speaker 4: It has been a different team for that point forward.

1102
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 4: But the fact that they were in this game, the

1103
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 4: fact that it was his close, that that is definitely

1104
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 4: a bit discouraging.

1105
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: Again. They go into the game next weekend.

1106
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:13,640
Speaker 4: I believe they're about at eleven and a half point

1107
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,879
Speaker 4: dog against Texas, but damn near scared the crap out

1108
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 4: of me, man.

1109
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 1: I believe it.

1110
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:23,640
Speaker 3: I'm not thinking great things about their chances against Texas,

1111
00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,880
Speaker 3: but I'm a little bit bummed. W we didn't get

1112
00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 3: Oklahoma Texas Part two?

1113
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: Now out of it, I am as well.

1114
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 3: I would have liked that, just from a peer entertainment standpoint,

1115
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 3: But I hope Oklahoma State comes to play. Are you

1116
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 3: ready for some scaries of mine? Go ahead, all right,

1117
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 3: I'm gonna list these off relatively quickly, Ty, because there's

1118
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 3: so much action to get to Arkansas's effort. And I know, look,

1119
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,880
Speaker 3: kJ Jefferson goes down almost immediately against Missoo, But Arkansas

1120
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 3: had the defense this year to make plays stay in

1121
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 3: games like they did against Florida, like they did against Alabama,

1122
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:56,560
Speaker 3: like they did against LSU. Cody Schrader Electric ran all

1123
00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 3: over them. Embarrassing, absolutely embarrassing from Arkans. I saw you

1124
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 3: mentioned Florida and talking about the Florida State game. So

1125
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,239
Speaker 3: I don't need to belabor that point. I'm just the

1126
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 3: entire Oregon State experience right now. So if you think

1127
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 3: about the last year, right USC and UCLA leave Oregon,

1128
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 3: that's two years ago Oregon and Washington leave. They beat Oregon,

1129
00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,160
Speaker 3: they become a top ten ish team, they lose on

1130
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 3: a slippery punt snap to Washington. I mean more happened

1131
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:28,440
Speaker 3: to that game, and then they get drilled by Oregon

1132
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 3: at Oddson, lose Jonathan Smith. It's just a nightmare of

1133
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 3: a you know, eighteen months or whatever for Oregon State

1134
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:41,320
Speaker 3: Asus Day against Arizona, Stanford's day at home, absolutely getting

1135
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 3: demolished on the ground by notary one yards.

1136
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: They gave up.

1137
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,400
Speaker 3: Yes, Colorado started the season off three and l finished

1138
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 3: one and eight with an offense that fell apart without

1139
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 3: Shador Sanders. The offensive line was terrible all year. Utah

1140
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:58,400
Speaker 3: beat them with a fourth string quarterback and everybody injured

1141
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 3: and Utah was still able to come away with a win.

1142
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 3: Also my final one tie the South Carolina experience against Clemson.

1143
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 3: Oh No, South Carolina opens the game up with a

1144
00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:13,719
Speaker 3: scoop and score for Clemson. Then they immediately get the

1145
00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:16,720
Speaker 3: ball back throw an interception, and then after they score

1146
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:18,800
Speaker 3: their lone touchdown, and I think it was a sixteen

1147
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:23,359
Speaker 3: to seven loss. Eight straight punts, five of which went

1148
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 3: for three and out. The South Carolina offensive experience at

1149
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:28,840
Speaker 3: home against Clemson.

1150
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,320
Speaker 1: The defensive defensive experience wasn't.

1151
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,479
Speaker 3: Horrible, totally good, totally good.

1152
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 4: It really was a bad sixteen to seven was your

1153
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 4: final in the Paul Metal punts?

1154
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 3: Eight straight punts, five of which were three and out.

1155
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 4: I also have the absolute dagger that occurred in this

1156
00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:49,399
Speaker 4: Baylor West Virginia game.

1157
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:50,279
Speaker 1: Did you see the end of this?

1158
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:52,759
Speaker 3: I did not.

1159
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:58,040
Speaker 4: What Baylor fans have been through this season is cruel

1160
00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:02,560
Speaker 4: and unusual punishment. Baylor came back after a really bad

1161
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:07,040
Speaker 4: first half and blanked West Virginia in the second half

1162
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 4: for the most part, to grab a thirty one to

1163
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 4: twenty seven lead with about a minute left. If you've

1164
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,399
Speaker 4: watched any Baylor football you know this season we've talked

1165
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 4: about it on this show. Baylor's defense has been virtually

1166
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:21,320
Speaker 4: nonexistent right, which has been problematic because Dave rand is

1167
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,240
Speaker 4: supposed to be a defensive guru. You would think they've

1168
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 4: been really bad this year. So what ends up happening?

1169
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 4: Inside a minute? West Virginia drives eighty four yards, Garrett

1170
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 4: Green hits Jaheim White on a wheel for a twenty

1171
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,400
Speaker 4: nine yard touchdown with twenty three seconds left. He was

1172
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 4: completely uncovered, completely uncovered. It was one of those deals

1173
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 4: where he throws the ball, the camera pans to the

1174
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,400
Speaker 4: right and you see it happening and you gasp.

1175
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 1: I gasped, I yelped. The dog came down to check

1176
00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 1: on me. What a moment.

1177
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 4: West Virginia ends up winning. They get their surprise eighth

1178
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 4: win of the season. They finish eight for so a

1179
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 4: really nice season for Neil Brown. Despite starting the year.

1180
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 1: On the hot seat.

1181
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:08,440
Speaker 4: Baylor finishes up the year three and nine. I don't think.

1182
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:09,720
Speaker 1: They move on from Dave Randa.

1183
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 3: I don't know, because Baylor is a private school. Yes,

1184
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 3: I don't know what their their buyout number is, but

1185
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:16,560
Speaker 3: it's probably huge after LSU interest.

1186
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1187
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 4: Exactly where things stand there. The read on the ground

1188
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 4: that I get from the Pope, the only pope that matters,

1189
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 4: Peter Pope, is that Baylor fans are done. Baylor fans

1190
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,120
Speaker 4: are done. They're ready to move on. They're they're willing

1191
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:33,280
Speaker 4: to concede that the experiment with Aranda has not worked.

1192
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1193
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 3: The report was he needs to present a future plan

1194
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 3: UH to have him back. The expectation is he's going

1195
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:46,760
Speaker 3: to present point with future powerpointf What's what's that?

1196
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 1: What is that?

1197
00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 7: All right?

1198
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 8: Check page three?

1199
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's gonna be something.

1200
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 1: I Speaking of defense, Yeah, another scary.

1201
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:58,840
Speaker 4: North Carolina's defense is so back, baby, yeah, baby, they

1202
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:01,600
Speaker 4: are back. They gave up thirty nine points in five

1203
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,959
Speaker 4: hundred yards to NC State, which coming into this week

1204
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 4: was ranked seventy fifth in the sp plus in terms

1205
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 4: of best offense in the country.

1206
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 1: It's an eight and four season for North Carolina.

1207
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 4: It's not entirely surprising given what we expected for them

1208
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 4: coming into the season.

1209
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:20,160
Speaker 1: It is disappointing.

1210
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 4: Though it is disappointing, it felt like there was more

1211
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:27,439
Speaker 4: there to be had. So North Carolina's defense bottoms out

1212
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,920
Speaker 4: in this game. They had a chance to win a

1213
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:34,640
Speaker 4: ninth game didn't happen. Speaking of scary, I need to

1214
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 4: say Mia Kulpa on NC State. I went on this show,

1215
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:42,520
Speaker 4: our show, many moons ago, and I said, North Carolina

1216
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,440
Speaker 4: State is the eighth best team in the ACC.

1217
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 3: Right.

1218
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 4: North Carolina is now nine to three, and they're starting

1219
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:54,760
Speaker 4: to use Kevin Concepcion in a really interesting way. Now,

1220
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 4: I have not seen the full game by game breakdown

1221
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 4: of how they are using him and in what positions,

1222
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,560
Speaker 4: and I will do that in due time. He got

1223
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:07,160
Speaker 4: eleven carries in this game and was very effective on

1224
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:10,880
Speaker 4: the ground. He was also crazy effective as a receiver.

1225
01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:13,840
Speaker 4: He's been one of my favorite players all year. Whatever

1226
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 4: I think of NC State, case Concepsion has been damn good.

1227
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 4: If they're going to start using him in a Deebo

1228
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:23,480
Speaker 4: Samuel capacity where they give it to him on the ground,

1229
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 4: they give it to him out wide, that is going

1230
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:27,960
Speaker 4: to be a scary story for anyone who plays NC

1231
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:31,360
Speaker 4: State in a bowl game. Okay, so me a caup

1232
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 4: on NC State nine and three. Bravo, Bravo, bravo, and

1233
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:36,280
Speaker 4: a very wist man.

1234
01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 3: You could just if you were an NC State fan

1235
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 3: three weeks into the year, you know, beginning of October.

1236
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 3: Just have somebody put you under for a couple months.

1237
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 3: Like man, this team is disappointing, Brendan Armstrong can't seem

1238
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 3: to figure it out. Just go under the best medicine,

1239
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:55,440
Speaker 3: the best anesthesiologists you can find, and when you wake up,

1240
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 3: they're going to be eight and four, nine and three. Somehow,

1241
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 3: some way, they'll lose my fifty five to Slippery Rock

1242
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 3: or Robert Morris or something in September, and then they're

1243
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 3: just gonna slowly climb, slowly climb, and they're gonna end

1244
01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 3: up in a respectable bowl with a chance to win

1245
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 3: nine or ten after it's wild.

1246
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:20,160
Speaker 4: And my final bit here, I don't know if it's scary. Okay,

1247
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:24,720
Speaker 4: it was definitely a bit shocking, definitely woke me up

1248
01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 4: in the middle of the afternoon after a long day

1249
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 4: of watching football. Did you catch a Manualacho's yellow suit

1250
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 4: on Fox Sports?

1251
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 3: Is it yellow? Is it mustard? Is it honey mustard?

1252
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:38,320
Speaker 3: Is it brown mustard? What is the official shade? I

1253
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 3: know you're the wrong person to ask, because you don't

1254
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 3: take in the color spectrum like most of us do.

1255
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 1: My rods and cones are all screwed up right. It

1256
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:48,240
Speaker 1: was a modern.

1257
01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 4: Take on what Jim Carrey wore in the mask, that

1258
01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 4: yellow suit. He swapped out the mobster hat and the

1259
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:58,000
Speaker 4: white shirt and black tie for just sort of like

1260
01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 4: the cashmere yellow turtleneck underneath the yellow blazer. That was

1261
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 4: a very very loud statement from Emmanulacho, who I otherwise

1262
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 4: really like, and I have no reason not to like

1263
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 4: him after this.

1264
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,480
Speaker 1: It was a bold choice and I support that. It

1265
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 1: just was shocking.

1266
01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 3: But like the color of a background couch in a

1267
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,800
Speaker 3: seventies porn a little bit right, or like you're watching

1268
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 3: a documentary about mustard being made in nineteen seventy seven,

1269
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 3: there's the shade.

1270
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 1: Unbelievable, unbelievable.

1271
01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:31,800
Speaker 4: I don't know if he went full yellow, if it

1272
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:35,240
Speaker 4: was just the top, or if he you know, really

1273
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 4: sold it with the bottoms as well, but.

1274
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 3: Either way assume so he commits to the bit. Say

1275
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:43,440
Speaker 3: what you will about his takes and how there was

1276
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:47,680
Speaker 3: something about javelin throwers not being able to smoke weed,

1277
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 3: because we know what could happen, remember that whole thing

1278
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,000
Speaker 3: it was we sort of swept that under the rug

1279
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 3: with like the Acho Full full bibliography of takes, but

1280
01:02:58,080 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 3: it was great.

1281
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 1: The suit.

1282
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 4: The suit was something that I think is probably Verby

1283
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:05,560
Speaker 4: worthy if we decided to do that.

1284
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 9: It was great.

1285
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 4: At some point this year I considered him for a

1286
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:12,959
Speaker 4: Doode alert. But that does it for my Saturday scary scaries. Yeah,

1287
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:14,520
Speaker 4: I don't think I have it. I want to create

1288
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 4: a new segment very quick. I don't know if it's

1289
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:17,360

1318
01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:49,960
Speaker 9: doesn't matter.

1319
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 4: Go blue. Hi. This is down from Laurel.

1320
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,480
Speaker 8: Hey guys, this as Will calling from Minnesota. Hi.

1321
01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 10: This is Garrett from DC calling and this message just

1322
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:05,880
Speaker 10: for Ryan Day. I heard you had a tough day

1323
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,640
Speaker 10: out there, But I was busy watching about two and

1324
01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:10,360
Speaker 10: a half hours worth of commercials, and there were some

1325
01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 10: pretty good ones for this company called Indeed. They seemed

1326
01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:15,280
Speaker 10: to do a really good job at helping people find

1327
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:15,960
Speaker 10: new jobs.

1328
01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:17,240
Speaker 1: You might want to check it out.

1329
01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:20,920
Speaker 11: It's not rational, it doesn't make sense given the record,

1330
01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:26,240
Speaker 11: but when you lose three times to Michigan, and especially

1331
01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:32,120
Speaker 11: with JJ McCarthy's feathered hair, it makes you say fire.

1332
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 1: Ryan Day. Ryan Day came into the Big House looking

1333

Speaker 9: couldn't be have here.

1336
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:46,800
Speaker 10: Everyone who thinks that Ryan Day's leaving is crazy.

1337
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:48,479
Speaker 7: That's all I have to say.

1338
01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:52,160

Speaker 8: Virginia Virginia Tech ever again.

1358
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,720

01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 4: one and all forgive you call.

1388
01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:15,440
Speaker 3: You know what our reverb line is, especially at this

1389
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 3: point in the season, and it's especially appropriate. You know

1390
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,800
Speaker 3: that there's like the Turkey emergency line that Butterball puts

1391
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:23,760
Speaker 3: up right, You're like, Oh, I don't know if my

01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:26,880
Speaker 3: bird is gonna burn at three hundred and fifty degrees

1393
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 3: if I keep it in there this long. That's what

1394
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,960
Speaker 3: kind of the reverb line is. Like, maybe somebody's best

1395
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 3: friend doesn't care about what happened with Arkansas. Maybe somebody's

1396
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:38,559
Speaker 3: spouse doesn't care about what happened with Michigan State this year.

1397
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,080
Speaker 3: But we have that line where you can call in

1398
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 3: and just let it all out. We're almost like escorts, right,

1399
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,479
Speaker 3: We're not doing anything dirty, but we're here for you.

1400
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:50,559
Speaker 3: If somebody in your life isn't providing what you need,

1401
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:54,920
Speaker 3: we're here for you. We're adult college football escorts. And

1402
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 3: you can quote me.

1403
01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, not have that one on the bingo card. Ok,

1404
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,640
Speaker 4: a great batch of reverbs. Look, I mean it is

1405
01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:07,680
Speaker 4: rivalry week. I've been reading posts on Discord. I've been

1406
01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 4: reading posts just in our chat here. I've been reading

1407
01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:15,160
Speaker 4: posts all throughout the interwebs, and it is an emotional

1408
01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:18,599
Speaker 4: week of folks all. It is always an emotional week.

1409
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:22,760
Speaker 4: And I think whenever you have weirdness in the way

1410
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:26,360
Speaker 4: that we had weirdness, and moreover, whenever you have a

1411
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 4: situation where we have so many teams still undefeated, you're

1412
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 4: going to have a wide range of opinions. Everybody has

1413
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:36,160
Speaker 4: a take on who the best teams are. And we

1414
01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 4: could sit here and debate the merits of a four

1415
01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:41,120
Speaker 4: team playoff or a twelve team playoff or whatever. But

1416
01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,920
Speaker 4: college football, at its core, and I know you agree

1417
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 4: with me, is about that debate, and that debate is

1418
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 4: going to rage on for the next week and probably

1419
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,120
Speaker 4: the next day after because we're going to find out

1420
01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:54,400
Speaker 4: in due time who's getting into the playoff. We're going

1421
01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:57,000
Speaker 4: to find out what it looks like when Oregon plays

1422
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:59,639
Speaker 4: Washington again, what Florida State looks like with its backup

1423
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:03,120
Speaker 4: quarter back against a team in Louisville who otherwise I

1424
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:04,800
Speaker 4: think would not have had much of a shot against

1425
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:09,360
Speaker 4: Florida State, Texas and Oklahoma State. Weirdness could ensue there.

1426
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:11,360
Speaker 4: I mean, I could list all these games off, I won't.

1427
01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 4: Alabama Georgia is a monster matchup. So next week is

1428
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:16,840
Speaker 4: going to give us some of the answers that I

1429
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:19,400
Speaker 4: think we've been craving and we really have not gotten

1430
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,479
Speaker 4: because we haven't truly had that chaos moment.

1431
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 1: We had weirdness, but we have not had a chaos

1432
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 1: so far.

1433
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, my only real take, it's not a roast of anything.

1434
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,599
Speaker 3: I don't know if there's a fully baked team. I'll

1435
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:33,320
Speaker 3: stick with my Thanksgiving theme. I don't know that there

1436
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,599
Speaker 3: is a flawless team. And maybe it's because we've been

1437
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:40,880
Speaker 3: spoiled by whatever. Alabama LSU the best of Georgia these

1438
01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:41,960
Speaker 3: past couple of years.

1439
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:42,639
Speaker 1: Like, I don't know.

1440
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:45,720
Speaker 3: If we have a team that appears to be flawless,

1441
01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 3: like George is not separating from everybody. Jaln Molroe can't

1442
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:51,599
Speaker 3: be counted on as a passer for four straight quarters.

1443
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:53,040
Speaker 1: Like Michigan.

1444
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:58,360
Speaker 3: It has looked very strong against Ohio State today, but like,

1445
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:00,959
Speaker 3: I still don't know how much I trust them against

1446
01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:05,000
Speaker 3: teams that offer different kinds of threats, especially speed threats

1447
01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:09,560
Speaker 3: out wide Alabama, I mentioned Oregon. I still don't know

1448
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:11,639
Speaker 3: about those high leverage moments, right They have to get

1449
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 3: over Washington. They have to make those fourth down plays,

1450
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 3: they have to make those red zone plays, and they

1451
01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 3: just haven't proven that they can do that yet. Texas

1452
01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:22,920
Speaker 3: on offense still, to me, is an open question. If

1453
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 3: quinn Ewers specifically has to win a game going downfield.

1454
01:11:26,200 --> 01:11:29,120
Speaker 3: They did it against Alabama in September. Are they built

1455
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:31,720
Speaker 3: to win in December January? That's an open question at

1456
01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:34,599
Speaker 3: this moment. Obviously, Florida State has the Jordan Travis issue

1457
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:37,880
Speaker 3: to get past. Right now, Washington and the way that

1458
01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,880
Speaker 3: they've played down to opponents, that's fascinating to me. I

1459
01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:42,880
Speaker 3: don't think that any of these teams can beat any

1460
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:46,080
Speaker 3: of these teams any given week, but I think it's

1461
01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:47,400
Speaker 3: closer than it's been lately.

1462
01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 4: Who's your top four before we let the fine people go?

1463
01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:53,640
Speaker 4: I mean, I think we put Georgia in there. I

1464
01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:57,120
Speaker 4: think by virtue of their win, you probably put Michigan

1465
01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:00,880
Speaker 4: in there, unless I'm mistaken. It does start to get

1466
01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:03,800
Speaker 4: a little bit more interesting though, outside of that top two,

1467
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,759
Speaker 4: because you had an Ohio State team that lost, lost close,

1468
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:10,280
Speaker 4: but probably falls out of that top five. Got a

1469
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 4: Florida State team that continues to win, but is definitely

1470
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:17,880
Speaker 4: more flawed. Now given the absence of Jordan Travis, You've

1471
01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:21,960
Speaker 4: got a Texas team that is up there, probably has

1472
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:24,599
Speaker 4: a claim. You've got an Alabama team that is up there.

1473
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:27,839
Speaker 4: You've also got Washington and Oregon not to be outdone,

1474
01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:30,000
Speaker 4: both of whom have had fantastic seasons as well.

1475
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:31,720
Speaker 3: Are you asking me to answer this question as a

1476
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:33,640
Speaker 3: committee member or are you saying if you had to

1477
01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:34,640
Speaker 3: rank the teams.

1478
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:36,440
Speaker 1: That you believe to be the best, you believe.

1479
01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:41,240
Speaker 3: In order like most likely to win a national championship,

1480
01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:52,519
Speaker 3: I would have Georgia, Michigan, Oregon, Alabama, Texas. I would

1481
01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:54,640
Speaker 3: have Alabama ahead of Texas now because I didn't love

1482
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:56,759
Speaker 3: the way that Texas played down to a couple of opponents,

1483
01:12:56,800 --> 01:13:02,519
Speaker 3: but Alabama did too, So maybe I'll put Georgia, Michigan, Oregon, Texas, Alabama,

1484
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:05,880
Speaker 3: Ohio State, Washington Interesting.
