Speaker 1: I'm good, Tie. I'm turning down the the energy in

12
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: my cans because you are just you're feeling. I was

13
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: up early, so I'm not prepared for your level of

14
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 1: enthusiasm and and excitement. But here we are, whoo, here

15
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: we are. What was it like on.

16
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 3: The mean streets of Evanston last night? Did you find

17
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 3: that there were car horns honking until all hours? Did

18
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 3: they have to grease the light poles to prevent against

19
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 3: rabble rousers? What what is it like now in the

20
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 3: wake of undefeated Northwestern?

21
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: So I was not in Evanston last night, but it

22
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: was not a coincidence that we had crazy thunderclaps last night.

23
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: That whoever is looking down and creating weather, that's the

24
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: thing you believe in knows that the thunder, the lightning,

25
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: and the torrential downpour of the Northwestern twenty twenty season

26
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: could not be more real.

27
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 3: Tyler, you almost made me believe that. I gotta give

28
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 3: you credit. You got almost maybe believe that. But Northwestern wins. Look,

29
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 3: it was a weird week. When we did our preview

30
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 3: show on Wednesday, obviously had a different version in mind

31
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 3: of what week eleven might entail.

32
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: But by the time we.

33
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 3: Made it to Saturday, fifteen games had either been canceled

34
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 3: or postponed. As we are recording this, there are two

35
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 3: teams in the PAC twelve getting ready to play kind

36
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 3: of an impromptu game at New Inn eastern time.

37
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: Between cal and UCLA right correct down in I believe

38
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: southern California is where they're playing the game. And yeah,

39
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: they needed some extra time to uh, to give the equipment,

40
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: to get everything in place, to get you know, the

41
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: whole ops ready for a quick turnaround game. And it's happening,

42
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 1: and it's it's on TV, I believe, So it's what

43
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: nine local noon Eastern. They're just they're going for it.

44
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: They're going so they'll get an hour head start on

45
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: the NFL. If my math is correct, and I would

46
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: love I mean, I've said this before about BYU. I

47
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: would love a more pop up element, just teams, just yes, yes, okay,

48
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: we'll meet you in Tulsa. Great, yes, And I would

49
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: love that to be the case. Obviously because of logistics

50
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 1: that usually can't be though call in UCLA, same state

51
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: and they're able to maneuver.

52
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 3: Weird time I saw I saw our friend Nicole Auerback

53
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 3: tweeted out something to the effect of, don't tell me

54
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 3: we need like a seven year lead time to put

55
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 3: some these matchups together when literally CALUCLA is taking place

56
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 3: on two days notice.

57
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: Would I would imagine going into the week with athletic

58
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: directors knowing the situations afoot, they were like, well, if

59
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't work out, let's it's a backup plan. I

60
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 1: believe my best friend's wedding was centered around this concept.

61
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: If we're not married by the time we're thirty, you

62
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: know you just screwed in like a backup plan. I

63
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: believe that's the case. It's been a while since I

64
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: saw mulroney or McDermott or both of them. I think

65
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: it was a mulroney.

66
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 3: Well, it's a little too early for my best friend's

67

Speaker 4: And try to flip over to IMDb and looks like

144
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,720

00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 4: chats before the game's over.

146
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,000

00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,560

Speaker 1: Should I wear a black shirt, a black shirt or

160
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: a black shirt?

161
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 4: Go big Red?

162
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: I have had my oven pre eating for well over

163
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 3: a year, and there's now final a time to heat

164
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 3: up these pac twelve f the dark.

165
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 4: This is joshuam Ann Arbor Michigan. I just have to say, ouch.

166
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: I just wanted to point out that Wisconsin backup fullback

167
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: had more rushing yards on one play than the entire

168
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: Michigan team had an entire game. Go Badgers. Watching Michigan

169
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: versus Wisconsin, and the question comes.

170
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 4: To mind, does Wisconsin have a fullback controversy?

171
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,319
Speaker 1: Looking for a little bit of advice, low wife is

172
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: pregnant and I'm trying to figure out how to talk

173
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: to my kid about.

174
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 4: A top five West Virginia defense. I've been watching the

175
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 4: Mountaineers all year. There's no doubt in my mind that

176
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 4: they are the best defense in college football.

177
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 2: In the deep dark kills Morgantown, West Virginia is We're tacy.

178
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 2: You went to dam It's here till run on a

179
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 2: twenty four to six TBS. Don't come back to us

180
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,119
Speaker 2: next week, please time, all.

181
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: Right, passion as usual, Dan, I like the the very end.

182
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was a U move or

183
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 1: it was somebody cutting you know obviously our dear dear

184
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: friend Ryan, the Buddha the like collar not found before

185
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: it gets weird. I don't know when that started, but

186
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't be a bigger fan.

187
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 3: Always a lot of fun. Four wad verbal one. Thank

188
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: you so much for calling in and for keeping this

189
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 3: fun for Dan and I. So again, Look, week eleven,

190
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 3: it did not amount to what we thought it was

191
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 3: gonna be.

192
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: Right, And I told you Tulsa had a good shot

193
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: of beating SMU and you laughed. SMU was up twenty

194
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: one nothing. They were up twenty one nothing. I mean, look,

195
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: if the Americans go into like a two quarter system,

196
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: that's great. But yeah, where where should we start here?

197
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 3: Because as I see it, there there are a bunch

198
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 3: of themes that are emerging.

199
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 6: Now.

200
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 3: It's taken us a while to get here. It's because

201
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 3: all the conferences didn't start playing at the same times.

202
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 3: But the theme that really jumps out to me the

203
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 3: deeper we get into this thing, and especially use.

204
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 1: A literation tie with Saturday. This, this is all I

205
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: ask of you. Well, stop the spread Saturday.

206
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 3: Stop the spread Saturday would have been the right the

207
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 3: right one to use in hindsight, now, all that stuff aside.

208
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 3: I think what we are seeing in the Big Ten

209
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 3: is sort of a microcosm for what I am feeling

210
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 3: around college football, because there are definitely some that feel

211
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 3: like they have something to play for. And those are

212
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 3: the teams that are still playing at a relatively high level.

213
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,319
Speaker 3: I say relatively because it's all kind of sloppy this year.

214
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 3: That's just that's just where we're at. There are also

215
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 3: teams on the other side of that coin, and some

216
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 3: of them happen to play in.

217
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 1: The Big Ten.

218
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 3: We'll get into that where it's apparent they may not

219
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 3: have anything to play for at this point and they

220
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: are playing as such. You know the mail it in concept,

221
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 3: Pack it up, Pack it in, Go Badgers.

222
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. Did we pull that sound? No way, we didn't.

223
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: It's too jarring, a like it was. I was trying

224
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: to fade out. It was just there's also an everlast

225
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: acoustic version that he found on the podcast, and that

226
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: was too dark. That's a little too dark and pensive

227
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 1: for it it was. It was like bag it up,

228
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:48,839
Speaker 1: bag it in.

229
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 3: Here is here is the homework assignment for over ballers, okay,

230
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 3: of which there are tens of thousands around the country

231
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 3: and world.

232
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.

233
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 3: We need a sound for packing it in, for mailing

234
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 3: it in for some of these teams that we think

235
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 3: are there. Send audio gif if you will, Yeah, send

236
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 3: in your audio GIF to Solberble at gmail dot com.

237
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 3: Much like we did with Crockpotting, you'll recall a couple

238
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 3: of years ago. Send in your favorites and we will

239
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: play them starting on the next show. Because this is

240
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 3: going to be a recurring theme. This divide between the

241
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 3: teams that have something to play for and the ones

242
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 3: that do not, I think is going to only widen

243
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 3: the deeper we get into things here in twenty twenty.

244
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: Where do you want to start?

245
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 3: First, Dan, what was the headliner for you on this

246
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 3: kind of slim down week of college football?

247
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: By the way, I mean, it's obviously perdue Northwestern because

248
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 1: and I just realized this while you were talking about

249
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 1: the Big Ten and just the waves of various season

250
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: outlooks now across the conference. Well, we'll get into everything.

251
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: We can start with I don't know. Virginia Tech Miami

252
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: ACC seemed like they had an eventful day. But is

253
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 1: the rivalry that has the most postseason or just interesting

254
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: competitive implication in the conference?

255
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 2: Now?

256
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: The battles for the Old Oaken Bucket? Oh wow, think

257
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: about it. It's it's not going to involve Penn State.

258
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: It's not what is the Land Grand Trophy of Michigan State.

259
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say probably not that. It's not the game.

260
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: It's not Michigan Ohio State. After what we saw to

261
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: the Wolverines against Wisconsin. It's not Wisconsin Minnesota. I mean,

262
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 1: nothing involving Minnesota can be like it has to be

263
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: the the Old Oaken Bucket is the premiere. It's not

264
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 1: Northwestern Illinois. It's not Nebraska, Iowa Old Oak Bucket. It

265
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 1: has the most interesting competitive implications as we stare into

266
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: the final few weeks of the season. Crazy, right, That's.

267
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 3: Why it's crazy crazy? Okay, sorry, why don't we start

268
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 3: in the Big Ten dot? Why don't we start there?

269
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 3: Since we're talking a lot about it, and you know

270
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 3: we're going to talk about a six pack of Big

271
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 3: Ten games, right because we had the Ohio State Maryland

272
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 3: game that was called off. I want to break down

273
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 3: these games. I want to talk about which players are rising,

274
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 3: which players are following, that sort of stuff. I just

275
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 3: can't get over how bad some of these teams are. Dan,

276
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 3: I cannot get over it. And I know I took

277
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 3: some heat on Twitter because of what I said about

278
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 3: Jim Harbaugh and maybe that coming to a natural conclusion

279
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 3: and being unfair to Michigan.

280
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: And look, I take it back.

281
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 3: They look great in this game, Dan, They look great.

282
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 3: They look like they've really got their head on straight.

283
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 3: Now as they lose forty nine to eleven.

284
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: I imagine your mentions, by the way, have cooled a

285
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: bit with any criticism of that statement.

286
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, come on, yeah, this was a disaster

287
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 3: for first and foremost, before we get into the Michigan

288
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: side of it, we got to give credit where it's due.

289
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: Wisconsin looked good.

290
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 3: They didn't look as good as they did Aainst Illinois,

291
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 3: but who does Nobody does. Yeah, Graham Mertz was fine.

292
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 3: He wasn't twenty of twenty one fine. He was twelve

293
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 3: of twenty one fine or something like that. But it's

294
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 3: clear why people like him. It's clear why they like him.

295
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 3: He's got a command of the offense, a command in

296
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 3: the pocket. He knows how to check down and find

297
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 3: the open man. We saw that down near the goal

298
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 3: line in the first half. Like he's he's got a

299
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 3: command and there's a lot of reason to be excited

300
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 3: about him. Wisconsin is one of those teams that I

301
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 3: think has something.

302
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 4: To play for.

303
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: On the Michigan side, maybe by the way they can't

304
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: afford to have another cancelation or else well, laying for

305
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: anything no matter how good they are.

306
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 4: That is correct.

307
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Michigan trailed.

308
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 3: Twenty eight Mil at half. It's the largest halftime deficit

309
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 3: since Michigan Stadium opened in nineteen twenty seven. Dan I

310
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 3: went to the Detroit Free Press. Do you know people

311
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 3: who listened to this show for a long time. I

312
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 3: know they know that My thing is, even if I

313
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 3: watched the game, I like to read the game res Caps,

314
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 3: the hometown paper, the biggest blog for the losing team,

315
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 3: The Detroit Free Press last night wrote that it was

316
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 3: the worst half of the Harball era, maybe in the

317
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 3: history of Michigan football.

318
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: Quote it was so bad.

319
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 3: Rich Rod was trending on Twitter with fans wondering if

320
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 3: former Michigan coach who went fifteen to twenty two in

321
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: three seasons would do a better job.

322
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: Unquote. I saw Rich Rod trending and then subheading trending

323
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: with Brady Hoak. I saw that combination. I'm drinking four

324
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: fully knew a score update. Yeah sorry, And I thought

325
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: to myself, all the things are bad. Things are bad

326
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: in ann Arbor right now. And I clicked And it

327
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: turns out h Twitter didn't lie. Who do we put

328
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: this on? Do we put this on the situation?

329
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 3: I think obviously the situation has to shoulder some of

330
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 3: the blame here, as it does for you know, pretty

331
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: much every team. Right That's that's sort of a common

332
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 3: thread the through line of the season. But you know,

333
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 3: now we get into this awkward territory of wondering how

334
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 3: much should be on harball. The team looked unprepared. There

335
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 3: are a lot of new faces. But if you look unprepared,

336
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 3: if you get blown out of the water like this. Look,

337
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 3: even if Michigan takes a step back, you don't expect

338
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 3: a twenty eight to nothing halftime deficit. That's a tough

339
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 3: pill to swallow, right, And so you know, I'm not

340
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 3: necessarily looking to cast blame on anybody, But we are

341
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 3: here to do a college football show, and we would

342
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 3: be turning a blind eye to the obvious question if

343
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 3: we didn't at least kick that question around.

344
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: I don't think Michigan has bad players. I don't think

345
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 1: Michigan has bad coaches. I think something within the program

346
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: is broken and this happens. And I was going to

347
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 1: suggest some combination Saturday, because like most years and most weeks,

348
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: the results are due to some combination of multiple factors.

349
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: But because we are now dealing with college football and extremes,

350
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: with postponement's cancelations, outs just complete fadeaways from power programs

351
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: like Michigan and Penn State, and I guess a continuation

352
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: with Florida State. And I'm not singling those out specifically

353
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: because it's happening across the country, but there is something

354
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: rotten within the Michigan program. I suspect we are going

355
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: to see a story from you know, the Athletic or

356
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: the Detroit Free Press after the season outlining all of

357
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: the issues Michigan had probably leading up to the season,

358
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: during the season, and after the season, which is normal

359
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: with major college football programs. You know, the bigger they are,

360
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: the harder they fall kind of thing, and so that

361
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: seems to be it. Joe Milton had a couple of

362
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 1: horrendous passes early on in this game. The tackling was horrendous.

363
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: I don't know how much time we can actually spend

364
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: dunking on a team we already knew was pretty bad

365
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: in Michigan. But this was sort of a big, clear,

366
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: bright example of Michigan on a big stage at home

367
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: against a good team that hadn't been practicing in the

368
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: way that they were used to practicing. Graham Artz was fine.

369
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: I love that pass he had to. I think Jake

370
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: Ferguson up the scene for a time touchdown. He threw

371
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: in the perfect spot. He made plays, but he wasn't dominant.

372
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: Wisconsin was without guys on offense. I don't think Garrett

373
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: Groschek played right. And so Wisconsin equals good, Michigan equals bad.

374
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: And that's a new current and hopefully temporary. If you're

375
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: a Michigan fan reality, you know, I don't know how

376
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: much there is to say. You watch ten minutes of

377
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 1: a Michigan game, you're like, Okay, that's not a very

378
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: good team. Let's move on.

379
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, like you said, we don't want to necessarily

380
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 3: dunk on on Michigan for too long. We did know

381
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 3: that this was not trending in the right direction, and

382
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 3: it's just it's jarring, you know, it's jarring. Like I said,

383
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 3: I can't get over how bad some teams are. Michigan

384
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 3: falls in that category. Penn State falls in that category two,

385
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 3: so they do they lose.

386
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: Promise me we'll go somewhere positive after penns We're gonna

387
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: go somewhere positive. After Punk State. We'll talk about Indiana

388
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,159
Speaker 1: and not Michigan State. Watch that offense. I don't know

389
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: how talk about Iowa. Let's talk about Iowa. Oh, I

390
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: would love to.

391
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 3: All right, Well, Penn State was down for their part

392
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 3: twenty seven to six at halftime, and it was truly

393
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 3: a scenario throughout this game in which and I said

394
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,719
Speaker 3: this on our group chat last night. Yeah, there were

395
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: defenders for Penn State who are lolly gagging around out

396
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 3: there like they didn't their heads weren't in it. This

397
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 3: is my first candidate for mail in ballot mail and

398
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 3: team packet in team whatever. We're going to start labeling

399
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 3: these teams as of the year because they just they

400
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 3: don't look like.

401
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: They're in it.

402
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: I don't see how if you are a Penn State

403
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 3: fan you want to watch more of what we've seen

404
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 3: so far.

405
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: There's no reason to. There's no reason to. Sean Clifford's terrible.

406
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:48,639
Speaker 1: He is terrible right now.

407
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 3: And how you rebuild confidence after the showing we saw.

408
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 3: I it's going to take a really good sports psychologist

409
00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: to do that, because this is just not a good effort.

410
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 3: Will Levis came off the bench, he gave Penn State

411
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 3: a little bit of a spark, but as David Hale

412
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 3: from ESPN, our friend from ESPN put it, not even

413
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 3: Nebraska was bad enough to lose to Penn State yesterday.

414
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 3: It was a really bad showing for Penn State. They

415
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 3: did try to come back, you know, Will the thrill

416
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 3: gave him a little bit of a of a boost,

417
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 3: but man, just not good, not.

418
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: Good at all for Penn State. I do think they're done.

419
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 3: There isn't much reason to watch moving forward. And again

420
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 3: another similar situation, to be fair, where you gotta wonder

421
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 3: the obvious question like how much how much blamer people

422
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 3: going to throw at James Franklin for this. Franklin in

423
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 3: a much different spot by the way than Harball, because

424
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 3: Franklin's had I think a lot more recent success with

425
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 3: the Penn State program and has built them up very quickly.

426
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 3: The talent at Penn State is still pretty deep, but

427
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 3: it's look an obvious question that I think, to your

428
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 3: point of post mortem's being authored after the fact or

429
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 3: even during the fact, Franklin's going to fall into that category.

430
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 1: Two sand that's quick Saturday, just to reverse it for

431
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: the alliteration, No, it's quicksand it's and I'm trying to

432
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: be more hesitant about blaming specific players for their performances

433
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 1: because usually there's a lot more behind poor performances. Sean

434
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 1: Clifford has had a rough year, the Penn State offense

435
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 1: has had a rough year in general, and it's one

436
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: of those things that I go back to and I

437
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: promise we're going positive. I promise we'll talk about you know,

438
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: Derrek King Willing Miami that first half and all sorts

439
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: of receivers stepping up across the country, whatever. But it

440
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: just seems that with the protocols players have to take

441
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: to just get on the field and not be held

442
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 1: out because of contact trace and quarantining and the adjustments

443
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: that they have to make to their daily lives as

444
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: college students that if things start to go wrong a

445
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 1: little bit, it turns into a lot quickly. And that

446
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: we're seeing that it's not Michigan Penn State only, it's

447
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: across the country it is. That is a new normal

448
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,199
Speaker 1: for twenty two twenty. I don't want to stay hung

449
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: up on it. Penn State just seems like they're in

450
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 1: that situation. I watched Will Levis and he seems fine.

451
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: He seems like a pre converted quarterback, right, Yeah, he

452
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 1: seems like he is okay. If he has a future

453
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: in football, it might be elsewhere on the football field,

454
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: and that's fine. We've seen a lot of those success stories.

455
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 1: He doesn't seem like somebody who is a natural born

456
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: successful quarterback for a major program. And that's okay because

457
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: he was better than Shan Clifford. And that's what Penn

458
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: State needed yesterday to make this a game good for Nebraska.

459
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: They themselves made a quarterback change. Adrian Martinez was not

460
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 1: the answer. I don't know if it's a physical thing,

461
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a mental thing. But Luke

462
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: McCaffrey made plays. Nebraska was able to hold on. Good

463
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: for the Huskers for believing and fighting through a pretty

464
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: rough start to their season between their own performances and cancelations.

465
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 1: And that line is so true and so brutal that

466
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: even you know Nebraska couldn't lose to Penn State. So

467
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: let's go positive.

468
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 3: Please, I beg you, Let's get Let's not talk about

469
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 3: Penn State or their red zone.

470
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: Official you do anything you want. We can talk about

471
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: Grand Canal, we can talk about the West Virginia defense.

472
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: We can talk about Lane Kiff and throwing up a

473
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: clipboard and sprinting sixty yards as Elijah More demolished South

474
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: Carolina and your choice, dealer's choice.

475
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 3: Baby, let's talk about the Hawkeys thirty five to seven

476
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 3: on the road in front of a screaming audience, screaming

477
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 3: crowd of seven hundred and seventy one Gopher faithful.

478
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: Yes, that was the number. I looked it up. Nice.

479
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 3: Minnesota didn't score until fourteen seconds left in this game,

480
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 3: Dan the ultimate garbage time touchdown. As Iowa very kind

481
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 3: of quietly over the last couple of weeks, has asserted

482
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 3: itself has looked pretty good. Minnesota is another one of

483
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 3: those teams that has been inexplicably bad in the early

484
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 3: part of that Big Ten season.

485
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, Iowa takes advantage.

486
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 3: This is this is a thing for Iowa, to be honest,

487
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 3: because we have been in a spot with the Hawkeyes

488
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 3: all too often where they're playing up against team we

489
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 3: know they should beat and they win by three points.

490
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 3: They were actually a three point favorite headed into this game.

491
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 3: The fact that they ran away and hit and led

492
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 3: thirty five nothing is a testament to I think where

493
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 3: they're at there getting better, and if you're an Iowa fan,

494
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 3: that's good.

495
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: It's a good thing to see. It just feels like

496
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: an Iowa season, a slow start midway through the season,

497
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: saying where the hell was this Iowa before, and then

498
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: maybe finishing the season. They finished it very strong last

499
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: year in the Holiday Bowl and getting people's hopes up

500
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: that they're going to take a step forward and start

501
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: quicker the next season. This is Iowa football really strong.

502
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: To just lean on the run. The run was working.

503
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: Let's not try to get too fancy, but let's still

504
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: modernize little bit, which they clearly did against Minnesota. My explanation,

505
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: you said inexplicable. My explanation is they no longer have

506
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: the ability to tackle on defense defences, the hits they

507
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: took up front, and I mean this is and it's

508
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: also happening across the country. Not to single out the Gophers,

509
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: but the Gophers have been a particularly public example of

510
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: this teams starting out their season given the lack of

511
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: practice and the lack of normal offseason. We're seeing with

512
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: the Big Ten, now, we're seeing with the PAC twelve. Now,

513
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: we saw it with the sec ACC Big twelve early

514
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 1: on tacklings like you need to warm up a lot,

515
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: you need to like cold weather, you warm up your car.

516
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: It needs a few minutes to really get going. It's

517
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: going to take five or six weeks for most teams

518
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 1: this year that have just started anyway to wrap up

519
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 1: and figure out how to tackle in the open field.

520
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: And Minnesota's work in progress.

521
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

522
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 3: By the way, we're going to talk about usc US

523
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 3: season the same category, exact same totally.

524
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: Oregon's in the same category. Oregon.

525
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of teams for sure, two undefeateds in

526
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 3: the Big Ten. We'll just round out the conference here

527
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 3: very quickly. Indiana blanks Michigan State twenty four to nil,

528
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 3: and Northwestern wins twenty seven to twenty on the road

529
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: at Perdue, a sloppy win for Indiana, at least on offense.

530
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 3: The defense showed up. They didn't have to do a

531
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,959
Speaker 3: whole lot because Michigan State wasn't particular really great on offense.

532
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 3: But a nice game for ty Fry Fogel, your boy,

533
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 3: oh my god, eleven grand playing baby two hundred yards.

534
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 3: And then on the Northwestern side of things, is he

535
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 3: is he.

536
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,360
Speaker 1: The Tiesman front runner. He has awarded to the best

537
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,880
Speaker 1: tier Tyler. I mean it has to be. I'm gonna

538
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: have to review. I feel like this it's a pretty

539
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: solid year for Ties and Tyler's. But I'll go back

540
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: and on.

541
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 3: On the Northwestern side, another game in which obviously they win,

542
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 3: but they do it with defense, which shouldn't be surprised

543
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 3: to anybody who's followed Northwestern football. It's how Pat Fitzgerald

544
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 3: likes to play. But Purdue held to two yards rushing

545
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 3: on seventeen attempts. The Northwestern front seven is legitimately good,

546
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 3: very solid. And I'm gonna try this name receiver. I'm

547
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 3: gonna try this name. I went out to YouTube, much

548
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: like I did with our friend dj U from Clemsons.

549
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 3: They trying to be And I think I found a

550
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 3: game maybe that was called by Adam Amin oh nice

551
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 3: in which he pronounced it, I'm sure correctly, because he's

552
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 3: a truth he talks to the guys. Yeah, Ramaud cho

553
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 3: Keio Bowman sounds right to me. Three touchdowns in this

554
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 3: game and a tremendous set of tattoos. I found a

555
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 3: video of this kid back when we did our when

556
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 3: we did our streamline Big ten preview, and I didn't

557
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 3: really have much reason to check back in on him

558
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 3: until I saw you had three touchdowns. But go and

559
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 3: look at his his tattoo history, how he draws up

560
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 3: his tattoos.

561
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: It's actually pretty cool.

562
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 3: But long story short. Good game for him, good game

563
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 3: for Northwestern. They stay undefeated.

564
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: They are.

565
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 4: I think.

566
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 3: Sitting pretty now after that Wisconsin game, which we're going

567
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 3: to have to preview. We've no choice. It's Michigan State,

568
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,959
Speaker 3: Minnesota and Illin. So depending on how things go against Wisconsin,

569
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 3: it may be time to start talking to your kids

570
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 3: about a potentially eight and oh Northwestern Wildcats.

571
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, not to be labored Big ten football too much

572
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: after a very strange day, but you're right, and Peyton

573
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: Ramsey has made all the difference. He's not incredible. He

574
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 1: made place. He didn't go downfield a ton. It's just

575
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: it's one of those situations with Northwestern that after last year.

576
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've ever said to yourself, I

577
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: don't know about repairing septic tanks per se, but I'm

578
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: gonna take a crack at it. Look, oh, maybe you

579
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: just get somebody who knows what they're doing. And Northwestern

580
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: went out and got somebody who knows what they're doing

581
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: in Peyton Ramsey. And it's been a difference maker. The

582
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 1: defenses has stepped up in the red zone. I mean

583
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: we're talking about like quarters and has shutout streaks right

584
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: now for Northwestern. So it's it's a really cool story

585
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: to see and I'm happy we're there. And Rutgers almost

586
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: bet Illinois. Illinois gets its.

587
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 3: First witt of the year, though, as James McCourt drills

588
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 3: a forty seven yard field goal dan with just two

589
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 3: seconds left, gives Illinois the first win of the year.

590
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 3: Rutgers actually led until the fourth quarter. All Right, dealer's choice,

591
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 3: where are we going next?

592
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: What do you waitee?

593
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 4: See?

594
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: Acc we had Notre DAMEBC the trappiest trap that didn't trap.

595
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: We had the very strange second half of Miami and

596
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. We had a big old shootout with North

597
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: Carolina and Wake Forest. Am I missing anything of notes?

598
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: We had a very sloppy Virginia Louisville game and the

599
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: rise to power of Bailey Hawkman. Were there to talk about.

600
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 3: Bailey Hawkman revenge game sixty five and three touchdown.

601
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: We had a few of these yesterday, Yeah, we did.

602
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 4: We did.

603
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 3: We had a bunch of quarterbacks going back to their

604
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 3: going back to their previous schools or playing against their

605
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 3: previous schools. Obviously the field youer COVID storyline we covered.

606
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 3: We had Billy Hawkman, we had Fleebey Franks. I'm sure

607
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 3: there are some others that are missing as well, but

608
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 3: what we'll just rattle off these scored us here quickly,

609
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,959
Speaker 3: and then let's just talk about what jumped out to us.

610
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 3: Notre Dame wins by fourteen over Boston College forty five

611
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 3: thirty one. We had to shootout that you mentioned between

612
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 3: North Carolina fifty nine to Wakes fifty three. Miami wins

613
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 3: twenty five twenty four. Yep, nice little come from behind

614
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 3: win there. We had Virginia winning by fourteen over Louisville

615
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 3: lous And we obviously had the Pitt Georgia Tech game

616
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 3: that was postponed. Then I mentioned NC State, I didn't

617
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 3: mention NC State thirty eight to twenty two over Florida State.

618
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 3: The Baty Hot Baby baileyhawk Baby Bailey. Yeah, which of

619
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 3: these games jumped out to you?

620
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 4: And why.

621
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: All of them? For various reasons. I mean, NC State

622
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: looking solid once again, they go to five and three,

623
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: Bailey Hawkman looked good against Miami, looks good against Florida State,

624
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: and for a backup quarterback with Devan Leary going down,

625
00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: encouraging for the wolf Pack. The UNC Wake was just wild.

626
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: Sam Howell was extraordinary. He put up a fourteen hundred

627
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: yards or something. I don't know the exact number, but

628
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: they ran well. They had to storm and come back

629
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: against a very solid Wake team. Sam Hartman had a

630
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: fantastic game. North Carolina at this point is pretty flawed,

631
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: but flawed teams who win tend to be pretty fun.

632
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: They're fun. That's where North Carolina is right now. They're

633
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: not a really good team, but they're entertaining. They're great TV.

634
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: And that's I'll take it in twenty twenty. So good

635
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: for North Carolina for coming back. I don't know if

636
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: you have thoughts on the tar heels. I'm just rattling

637
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: through it. You rattled through Virginia Tech. Miami was quite weird.

638
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: Derek King was fantastic when not a lot of people

639
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: around him were in that first half, and Hendon Nooker

640
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: was really good for most of this game. And then

641
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: just an ugly fourth quarter. Miami takes the lead and

642
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: then struggles to hold on to it in Virginia Tach,

643
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: especially with that the interception near the end. An ugly,

644
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: ugly fourth quarter at home in a very winnable game

645
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: for the Hokies. I thought text defense was actually really

646
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: impressive for the most against Miami, and Miami has has

647
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: dudes on defense, but they can't put it together for

648
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: four full quarters. So two flawed teams, pretty entertaining game. Yeah,

649
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: let me go to the Notre Dame game play for

650
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: a second. This wasn't a clean game either.

651
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 3: Three fumbles for Notre Dame, and it certainly started out

652
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 3: like the kind of trap game that we had warned

653
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 3: about until we did a preview. Gradually, though Notre Dame

654
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 3: did pull away. And I think what's most encouraging, obviously,

655
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 3: besides the fact that Notre Dame one, is the fact

656
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 3: that it's two straight weeks now of Ian Book being

657
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 3: a straight up dude. He was good twenty of twenty seven,

658
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 3: two eighty three to three touchdowns, no picks. He led

659
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 3: the team in rushing with eighty five yards. All three

660
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 3: of those touchdowns went to Northwestern transfer big Ben Scornic

661
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 3: mm hm. So that seems to be a bit of

662
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 3: a tandem that's emerging. I like the other dude too,

663
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 3: who made plays as Avery Davis. Yeah, I liked him. Quarterback,

664
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 3: played running back. He's been all over the place, but

665
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 3: he's obviously an athlete and you know, got involved in

666
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 3: the Clemson win in a big way. And so it

667
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: seems like some of these downfield threats are starting to

668
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 3: develop for Notre Dame, and not a moment too soon.

669
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 1: They've got off next week.

670
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 3: They've got UNC the Friday after Thanksgiving, which will be

671
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,919
Speaker 3: an interesting game because, as you said, UNC is fun

672
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 3: if not flawed. Fifty nine to fifty three, they were

673
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,319
Speaker 3: down for two and a half quarters. They needed twenty

674
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 3: eight in the fourth quarter to win. All you need

675
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 3: to know about this game is that there were one

676
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 3: hundred and twelve points over thirteen hundred yards and just

677
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 3: one turnover, so not a lot of defense on display.

678
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,439
Speaker 3: The stats here were eye popping. Sam Howe straight up dude,

679
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 3: five point fifty six touchdowns through the air, just doing

680
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 3: what he has to do to will his team to

681
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 3: victory here. And you know, if North Carolina had a

682
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 3: little bit more defense, I think we would all feel

683
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 3: better about them. But it really has been a team

684
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 3: this year that's simp that that's good enough to win,

685
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 3: just doing enough to win right, not blowing anybody out.

686
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 3: And that's kind of the hallmark of your luck running

687
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,359
Speaker 3: out team, isn't it where it's like, we know they're good.

688
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 3: We can obviously see the talent, but the killer instinct

689
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 3: if you want to call it that, the ability to separate,

690
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 3: if you want to call it that, it's just not

691
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 3: quite where it needs to be to leave you feeling

692
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 3: one hundred percent confident And to.

693
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 1: Be fair, in my some combination, Saturday wake Forest looked

694
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: really good. They did, and they're not bad this year.

695
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:47,720
Speaker 1: They are not bad. Very quietly there, I think, secretly decent.

696
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: I like their skill, talent, I think, what's a Kenny Walker.

697
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,320
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker on the ground. They've got a couple of

698
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: good receivers. Sam Hartman's pretty fearless.

699
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:56,360
Speaker 4: They have that.

700
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 1: Really long looping RPL that really extended and off match point.

701
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: It's I'm sure, very annoying to watch. We were tweeting

702
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: about this with Nicole auerback the looping curveball weirdly effective

703
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 1: offense of college football. But I'm happy to see it.

704
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: That was a fun game. I mean, not for North

705
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: Carolina fans who might have weak hearts, but otherwise, Yeah,

706
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 1: I had a good time. Barry Zito offense, right, Yeah,

707
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 1: I was gonna say rich Hill, but somewhere in there.

708
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 4: Yeah.

709
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 3: And then elsewhere in the ACC you mentioned the Miami

710
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 3: game twenty five to twenty four, close game. Many Daz

711
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 3: said this game almost didn't happen because of COVID and

712
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 3: Miami was thin at key positions. You know, I don't

713
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 3: know if you could fully point to that they were

714
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 3: a dog coming into this game to begin with, but

715
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 3: it was Dearic King connecting with Mark Pope for a

716
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,399
Speaker 3: thirty six yard touchdown to give them a late lead

717
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 3: and the eventual victory. Here what else, Virginia wins by fourteen.

718
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 3: The difference here was essentially Louisville and their turnover issue.

719
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mallie Cunningham had such an exciting day on the

720
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,760
Speaker 1: ground and had the ball ripped out of his hands

721
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: and threw a backbreaking interception and that was the difference.

722
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 1: Virginia good enough to take advantage of mistakes. But yeah,

723
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 1: the Louisville offense had its way for the most part

724
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: with the whole defense, and it's a shame for Louisville too.

725
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 3: We've talked up the cards for gosh as far back

726
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 3: as I can remember, in twenty twenty, and we're all

727
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 3: really excited about this team coming into the year and

728
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 3: you know, again weird year. We don't have to keep

729
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 3: saying it, but they.

730
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: Were without two two out Well and Javian Hawkins in

731
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 1: this one.

732
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 3: Their turnover margin is minus twelve, which isn't good and

733
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 3: turnover has been killing them all year.

734
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 1: Killed him again.

735
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 3: And then we'll close it out by saying that NC

736
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 3: State one. We talked about the Bailey Hawkman revenge game.

737
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 3: This one was twenty one to three at half, thirty

738
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 3: five to nine after three quarters. The bright spot I

739
00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,320
Speaker 3: think if you're Florida State. Is that you got to

740
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 3: see Chubb a already in the second half, so he

741
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 3: played the whole way. They didn't really let him do

742
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,439
Speaker 3: much in the first half, but in the second half,

743
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 3: perhaps out of necessity given the score, they opened it

744
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 3: up a little bit more and I thought he looked

745
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 3: a lot better. So, if you're going to hang your

746
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 3: hat on anything, he looked a lot better in that

747
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 3: second half. And given where you've come from, like Jordan

748
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 3: Travis didn't make the trip because of you know, a

749
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 3: variety of factors. I like the fact that we saw

750
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 3: a decent second half out of Chubb with Purdy and

751
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 3: that maybe that gives Florida State a little bit more

752
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 3: optimism moving forward.

753
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 1: Should also to mentioned their Thomas Dude Frensis State real

754
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: fun to watch out wide. All right, uh, let's go to.

755
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 3: Your PAC twelve, Daniel, Okay, let's let's go to the

756
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 3: PAC twelve. So we had Oregon winning by fourteen over Wazoo.

757
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 3: We had USC needing a a late spark again to

758
00:38:58,800 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 3: win thirty four.

759
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: Hours, really the best team in Arizona US.

760
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 3: Thirty four to thirty. We had Colorado winning thirty five

761
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 3: to thirty two over Stanford, and we had Washington twenty

762
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 3: seven to Actually I screwed up to score here, but

763
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 3: Washington beat Oregon State in the in the lately twenty

764
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 3: seven to twenty one. That's twenty seven twenty one. I

765
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 3: have twenty seven to twenty eight.

766
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: For some odd reason. That's not the right answer. I

767
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: probably should have been if you watched that ridiculous fourth

768
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 1: down spot near the end zone that Oregon State was

769
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 1: not given. Yeah, I think it was a twenty four

770
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: to twenty one deficit when Oregon State clearly it was

771
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: a fourth and one. I believe ran the ball, I

772
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: don't know, two and a half yards, two yards, one

773
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: point eight yards clearly unless the TV line, unless the

774
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 1: TV spot was wrong. Here, I am belaboring Oregon State

775
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: fourth down spots in the middle of the night. But

776
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: it was a bad spot. It was a real bad

777
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 1: spot that ended up probably costing them the game. It

778
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 1: was like fourteen minutes left in the fourth quarter. But

779
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: that's that's a game changer when you lose by six

780
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,839
Speaker 1: and could have had seven. Because Jamar Jefferson really good

781
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 1: for Oregon State and Washington started Dylan Morris, who was

782
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 1: kind of Browning esque. They Washington did the majority of

783
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 1: their damage on the ground. I don't know if you

784
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: saw the crazy punt block touchdown State, Yeah, I saw.

785
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 1: That was something so very strange. PAC twelve after dark game.

786
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 1: Sean McGrew had himself a nice day for Washington on

787
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: the ground. I don't know, you know, Washington missed week one.

788
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 1: They're one and all and that's good. That's good. That's

789
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: a nice start. They got pushed around though, on defense

790
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: and Oregon. Speaking of getting pushed around on defense, Oregon

791
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: had a nightmare of a first half. They are having

792
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: a lot of trouble tackling, especially when playing an offense

793
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: that can be good for long stretches like Wazoo with

794
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: Jaden DeLaura as a promising freshman quarterback. Dean McIntosh ran

795
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: really well in that first half, and Oregon all sorts

796
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: of issues tackling on defense, especially with that you know,

797
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: it's essentially new secondary. They brought back one corner who's

798
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 1: good in Diamador Lenor, but losing Brady Breeze, Javon Holland

799
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 1: and Thomas Graham in the open field tackling is a

800
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 1: pretty obvious loss right now. But Oregon did a really

801
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,240
Speaker 1: nice job on offense, getting their act together after overcoming

802
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,280
Speaker 1: those turnovers, really ugly turnovers, and just sort of slowly

803
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,800
Speaker 1: crushed the life out of Wazoo on the road. So

804
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 1: a nice win. Joe Morehead offense is leaps and bounds,

805
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: more fun to watch and more effective than where they

806
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: were last year with Marcus Arroyo. Travis Dye was really

807
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: good in the passing game, Tyler Schuck really good in

808
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 1: high leverage moments and encouraged by this Oregon team winning

809
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: their clunkers by two touchdowns and losing the turnover deficit

810
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: three to nil in a single half. So happy with that.

811
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 1: Usc Yeah, let's talk. Let's talk about the crucial tip.

812
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 1: Settle settle, crucial tips.

813
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 3: Let's talk about this game. Yeah, this was closer than expected.

814
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 3: The Trojans needed a game winning drive to get the win.

815
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 3: Two weeks running now where they're just sort of doing

816
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 3: enough to win. And you know, if this weren't a

817
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 3: theme that we've seen before under Clay Helton, I might

818
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 3: be more inclined to just chalk it up to the situation.

819
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty Weird Year said it about eight times already

820
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 3: on this episode. We'll say it eight more on the

821
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 3: next but that's not really the case. You know, like

822
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 3: this has been a recurring thing for sure, and the

823
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 3: line seems like it's an issue. Like they were able

824
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 3: to run well enough, but not inside the tackles, not

825
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 3: inside the tackles at all. The line just did not

826
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 3: get much of a push, and as I sort of

827
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 3: foreshadowed earlier, they bring in Todd Orlando to try and

828
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 3: fix some of the defensive issues, and they didn't have

829
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 3: a lot of practices to kind of get things under

830
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 3: their belt. And you know, maybe it is like a

831
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,719
Speaker 3: car that really needs to get started up, but still

832
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 3: a lot of issues out there with misstackles, guys taking

833
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 3: bad angles and oh yeah.

834
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 1: But it's that early things. It's warming up your car tie.

835
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: That's all it is to me right now. That I

836
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 1: think they will improve, but it's a rough watch right now,

837
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 1: as it was for me with Oregon, as I'm sure

838
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 1: it has been for you at times with well, my

839
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,839
Speaker 1: Notre Dames defense has been solid, but certainly with Penn State.

840
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I just I wonder with USC, I don't know.

841
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,320
Speaker 3: I guess I just kind of expected more out of

842
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 3: the offense too. I thought that they'd be firing on

843
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 3: all cylinders a lot more given what they've got coming

844
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 3: back at skill positions, especially at quarterback.

845
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,839
Speaker 1: And yeah, I am, I'm disappointed with the line. As

846
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 1: you mentioned, they just I don't think they're good enough.

847
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 1: The pass catchers are incredible. I've really liked watching Amon Ross,

848
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 1: Saint Brown and Drake London who have made plays these

849
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 1: first two games, have needed to make plays to squeak

850
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 1: by Arizona and Arizona State. They get that other, that

851
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,840
Speaker 1: tip that they needed to set up the game winning touchdown.

852
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,839
Speaker 1: It was a tipped ball by a dB. Last week

853
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: it was a tip ball that ended up in a

854
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 1: I think a touchdown to Drake London. So I am,

855
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: I mean, win your clunkers. If you're not tackling and

856
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 1: you still win, I suppose that's a good thing. I

857
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: saw our friend Brian Fisher saying another week of USC

858
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: playing down to its competition. I think USC is its competition.

859
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: I don't think this is like a thing that we

860
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 1: can point at because this is just kind of a

861
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 1: new normal with the Trojans and especially under Clay Helton.

862
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 1: They win this game, that's fine, that's good. Move on,

863
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,239
Speaker 1: move forward, Take the win. They're two and zero and

864
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: I don't foresee them being all that good against the

865
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:43,839
Speaker 1: better teams they might face. But it's twenty twenty weird, Dear. Also,

866
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: Colorado is interesting and fun Colorado. Colorado's two and oh

867
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: they don't look bad. They don't look bad as offense. Yeah,

868
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: they don't look bad at all. Dan No, Davis Mills

869
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 1: plays for Stanford after an ugly story I think for

870
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,400
Speaker 1: the conference, the fall positive and the timing of it

871
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,239
Speaker 1: all before the Oregon game really sucks for him, really

872
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: sucks for Stanford. So he comes back and Stanford does

873
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,319
Speaker 1: make this a game. Colorado, I think I believe they

874
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: jumped out to what they're up at halftime. They had

875
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: a big third quarter, and Stanford storm back a little

876
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: bit in the second half, but Colorado too. And O

877
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 1: I really like Stanford here because I thought UCLA and

878
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 1: that win was turnover and smoke and mirror driven, that

879
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 1: just the Bruins might be a disaster. But hey, buffs

880
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,799
Speaker 1: to and oh take it. What's funny about this one?

881
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 3: When I was going back through in the wee hours

882
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 3: of the morning to evaluate what happened, I didn't watch

883
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 3: much of this game live I see El Chinault on

884
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 3: the box score for college.

885
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, his little brother.

886
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 3: He's back, Baby, he is back. It's levantational, not La Risco.

887
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: I knew that, but lavis. Anyway.

888
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 3: Then we've got, obviously the cal UCLA game, which we'll

889
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 3: talk about maybe as part of our news segment for

890
00:45:56,080 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 3: the Wednesday Previews show. Yeah, the imprompt do matchup on

891
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 3: Sunday morning between those two schools in the state of California.

892
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 6: Dance off.

893
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: All right, what else did we a walk off? It's

894
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:12,439
Speaker 1: a walk off? Sorry, we've got from a major see

895
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: you frogs.

896
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 4: Baby.

897
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,359
Speaker 3: Oh god, let's just get this out of the way.

898
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:22,240
Speaker 3: Twenty four to six. West Virginia takes it to TCU.

899
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 3: West Virginia agreed, disagree. Best defense in the Big twelve

900
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,359
Speaker 3: Oklahoma State Probably it's one of the other.

901
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: Right, it's one of the other.

902
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

903
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 1: I was tweeting with a longtime listener who we love dearly.

904
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: I believe his name is rich and I had to

905
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 1: look it up because he said the West Virginia defense

906
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 1: is better than anything the SEC has this year. I

907
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: think I'd still take one or two SEC defenses, maybe

908
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 1: Georgia and Alabama. At this point, West Virginia has faced Texas,

909
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, Baylor, Kansas State, TCU Kansas. Texas

910
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 1: did run all over West Virginia. Oklahoma State beat them

911
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: with a third string QB and Shane Ellingworth, and Texas

912
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,800
Speaker 1: Tech beat them with a backup QB and Henry Colombie

913
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:09,760
Speaker 1: and then the rest of those defense. Those those offenses

914
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:13,919
Speaker 1: they faced Baylor, Kansas State, TCU Kansas not especially great,

915
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:18,399
Speaker 1: especially Kansas State with their own backup quarterback. But all

916
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: things considered, West Virginia taking a very impressive step forward

917
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,759
Speaker 1: on defense is nothing I fully saw coming. And Letty

918
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 1: Brown as a full on dude is nothing I saw

919
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: full on coming. So I'm really happy with where the

920
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,320
Speaker 1: Ears are at in year two of Neil Brown, whatever

921
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 1: year two means, and under these circumstances, hell yeah, Ears,

922
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 1: win your games, and they did.

923
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 3: Win your games. TCU was held under three hundred total

924
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 3: yards for the first time this season, and the West

925
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 3: Virginia defense never let them get into any rhythm. I

926
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 3: mean there was no rhythm here at all on the

927
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 3: TCU side, and so it was West Virginia asserting its

928
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,800
Speaker 3: will defensively, giving the offense enough room to breathe and

929
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 3: for some of the dudes stepping up, it's what an

930
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 3: amount of two here? And West Virginia gets.

931
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 1: To win, so nice one for them.

932
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,840
Speaker 3: The only other game in the Big Twelve was Texas

933
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 3: Tech Baylor. I think you really liked Baylor in this game,

934
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 3: didn't you?

935
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:15,839
Speaker 1: I probably did?

936
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 4: Yeah?

937
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty four to twenty tex That sounds right.

938
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 3: The return of Alan Bowman, British comedy legend Alan Bowman

939
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 3: is back. Baby is back, Baby, twenty four to twenty

940
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 3: Your final score.

941
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 1: Last second, last second win, last second wads. Baylor was

942
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,879
Speaker 1: up for a while in this game. Yeah, he didn't

943
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,799
Speaker 1: play since he played a little bit Halloween, but has

944
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,959
Speaker 1: not been the full time quarterback since it appears October tenth,

945
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, really nice win for Texas Tech. Baylor, of course,

946
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 1: with their own season struggles as to be expected, at least,

947
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 1: especially if you were you. You expected Baylor to struggle

948
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: this year with losing what they did on defense and

949
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:00,319
Speaker 1: Charlie Brewer just looking like a shell of the very

950
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 1: successful quarterback he has been over the years for Baylor,

951
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 1: and the rest of the Big Twelve was not playing.

952
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, and finally let's go to the SEC

953
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 3: let's we had three games, only three games because there

954
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 3: were a bunch of cancelations and postponements in the league,

955
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 3: perhaps chief among those being Alabama LSU, which is a shame.

956
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,479
Speaker 1: Ors thirty points spread shame.

957
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 3: But yes, well it's a notable matchup, so for sure.

958
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:41,120
Speaker 3: Florida sixty three, Arkansas thirty five. Another downright impressive performance

959
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:47,360
Speaker 3: from Kyle Trask three fifty six, six touchdowns, maybe the

960
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:49,520
Speaker 3: most impressive half of his career.

961
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 1: I think Kyle Trask is my favorite quarterback to watch

962
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, and that's a remarkable thing for me, say,

963
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 1: given where I think he came from, just in terms.

964
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 1: I always thought he was accurate. I always thought he

965
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 1: was calm. We called him calm throw Kyle. But watching

966
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 1: him look as confident as he does in this offense,

967
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:17,360
Speaker 1: if your defense has a single minor coverage bust, usually

968
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 1: against college quarterbacks, you can get away with it to

969
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 1: a certain degree. Kyle Trask feasts on those tyler He

970
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:29,360
Speaker 1: does it just does time after time, whether it's a

971
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: wheel route mismatch, whether it's a corner who slips, whether

972
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: it's a safety who takes a bad angle on a

973
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 1: post route or something like that. Kyle Trask is he's

974
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: a a breakdown detective and he just he sleuths and

975
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 1: slaughters tie. I don't know how best to describe what

976
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 1: Kyle Trask does. That sounds very strange. Slaughters, right, Okay, yeah,

977
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 1: I'll take it. I'm actually kind of happy with that.

978
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 3: It's not bad good alliteration here early on a Sunday.

979
00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 1: But here the the tandem of he and Dan Mullen

980
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,879
Speaker 1: alongside those receivers. He's without Kyle Pitts in this game.

981
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:05,879
Speaker 1: I imagine he'll be held out. Pits will be held

982
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: out against Vandy next week. He just he spreads the

983
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 1: ball around, whether it's Kadarius Tony, whether it's Trevon Grimes.

984
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 1: Just an absolute pleasure to watch Kyle Trask demolished defenses

985
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 1: this year. And I know Justin Fields is great and

986
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see him against some better defenses than

987
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: he's faced thus far. And just get on the field.

988
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,600
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence went on the field, has a crazy high ceiling.

989
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 1: Mac Jones has been incredible. I know you're super high

990
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 1: on Chase Garber's as the nation's elite. Non we do

991
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: like Chase Garbs. But in terms of pure quarterbacking satisfaction, entertainment,

992
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 1: Kyle Trask is a joy. He is a joy.

993
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 3: And let me come back to the calm throw Kyle

994
00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:54,640
Speaker 3: thing for a second. Okay, that nickname started originally because

995
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 3: we thought he had no arm.

996
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, it took a long time for some of

997
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: those balls to get there and improve that.

998
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 3: That was that was the genesis of that nickname. Yeah,

999
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 3: and you're right, he has improved it. He is at

1000
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 3: this point maybe your heisman front runner, and I think

1001
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 3: calm throw Kyle now takes on an entirely different connotation.

1002
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 3: It's not about the speed or the spin of his

1003
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,879
Speaker 3: passes as it is him in the pocket and him

1004
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,839
Speaker 3: running that offense right like part of what we talked

1005
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 3: about at the very beginning of this SEC season when

1006
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 3: we previewed the SEC East Granted Arkansas, granted Arkansas, granted Arkansas,

1007
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:40,680
Speaker 3: granted Arkansas. But that being said, this has been again

1008
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 3: a theme a trend for Trask so far this season,

1009
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 3: and calm throw Kyle now, reverting back to what we

1010
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 3: talked about at the start, is exactly what you said.

1011
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 3: Another year under Dan Mullen, Remember the circumstances under which

1012
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 3: he became the starting quarterback. Felipe Frame, it's got hurt

1013
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 3: Kyle Trask is thrust into this role. Dan Mallen sort

1014
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 3: of rebuilds the offense on the fly and did a

1015
00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 3: hell of a job doing it with the benefit of

1016
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:14,759
Speaker 3: that time and with whatever offseason we had so far

1017
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 3: this year. Now going into the season, Kyle Trask was

1018
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:19,880
Speaker 3: ready for kind of the two point zero version of

1019
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 3: what that offense was going to look like, and to

1020
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 3: his credit, he has thrived. He has done a remarkable

1021
00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 3: job leading this offense and the Florida defense. Look, that's

1022
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 3: probably a separate conversation altogether. That's underwhelmed in many spots

1023
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 3: so far this year. But you cannot take anything away

1024
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 3: from Trask. Even when he doesn't have guys like Kyle Pitts,

1025
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 3: even when the full Kyle driver isn't in office, he's

1026
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:45,200
Speaker 3: still getting it done, finding ways to use his weapons.

1027
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,640
Speaker 3: So a good showing from him, and another one of

1028
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:50,960
Speaker 3: those games, by the way, like we said, with quarterbacks

1029
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:55,319
Speaker 3: playing against their former teams, Felipe Franks looked pretty good too.

1030
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 1: He did, He really did.

1031
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 3: Fifteen of nineteen, Arkansas didn't have an answer and defense

1032
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 3: for what Florida was doing on offense. But Felipe Franks

1033
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 3: for his part in all this, I thought it quitted

1034
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 3: himself quite well.

1035
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 1: Definitely, Yeah, absolutely, Arkansas ways to go defensively as we saw,

1036
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 1: but they're not going to be facing Kyle Trasks every

1037
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:16,880
Speaker 1: week in the SEC.

1038
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:22,960
Speaker 3: All miss fifty nine South Carolina forty two South Carolina

1039
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 3: didn't play all that bad and they still lost by seventeen.

1040
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 3: Matt Corral five thirteen, four touchdowns. Elijah Moore another dude

1041
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:33,040
Speaker 3: of a game.

1042
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 1: Have we retired dude status for him yet? We probably should.

1043
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:39,880
Speaker 1: Elijah Moore is feels like a room. He feels like

1044
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,920
Speaker 1: a room that nobody is sort of coming within downfield.

1045
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: Nobody is coming within the space of a general room.

1046
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:47,880
Speaker 6: You may be in to.

1047
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,600
Speaker 1: Elijah Moore when he is when he is running a

1048
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:52,200
Speaker 1: deep route. He's so fun to watch.

1049
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 3: Thirteen grabs, two hundred and twenty five yards. His two

1050
00:54:56,280 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 3: touchdowns were of ninety one yards and twenty five yards.

1051
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 1: Cards. You see the clipboard flip, You see the lane

1052
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 1: kiff and clip I saw it went up like thirty feet.

1053
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 4: In the air.

1054
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:05,719
Speaker 1: I saw it.

1055
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 4: I saw it.

1056
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 3: More becomes the first wide out this season, a break

1057
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:12,840
Speaker 3: a thousand yards receiving, so it's been a hell of

1058
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,600
Speaker 3: a year for him. The old miss offense is not

1059
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 3: in question at all. Another tough one for South Carolina

1060
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 3: here Matt corral who yeah over five right, five thirteen

1061
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:28,640
Speaker 3: foals And the only other SEC game was Kentucky thirty

1062
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:32,279
Speaker 3: eight Vandy thirty five. This one, you know, notable for

1063
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 3: a couple of reasons, and we could talk about Terry

1064
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:37,680
Speaker 3: Wilson and Christopher Rodriguez, but I did just want to

1065
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 3: call out that this game was two days after Kentucky's

1066
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:46,080
Speaker 3: offensive line coach John Schlarman passed away after battle with cancer. Guy,

1067
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 3: I was just forty five, So it's it's sad to

1068
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:51,879
Speaker 3: see that. You know, Kentucky did their best to sort

1069
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 3: of play through it and obviously got the w here,

1070
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 3: but heartbak heartbreaking circumstances.

1071
00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,840
Speaker 1: Nonetheless, Yeah, they lined up with four offensive linemen just

1072
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:02,360
Speaker 1: the game, and then the left guard who came in

1073
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 1: was wearing I think his old number sixty five, So yeah, heartbreaking.

1074
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: I think he was battling cancer for quite some time. Yeah,

1075
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 1: and Vandy made it close with like thirty seconds left.

1076
00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:16,880
Speaker 1: I think the most notable thing to me about Vandy's

1077
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 1: pretty awful year is they're starting a freshman named Ken.

1078
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,400
Speaker 1: I just I don't come across you don't come across

1079
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:28,440
Speaker 1: a lot of eighteen year old Ken's nowadays Ken Seals

1080
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:35,400
Speaker 1: of Ken Seals Asuzu come on by. So yeah, Chris Rodriguez,

1081
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,080
Speaker 1: very very good, Terry Wilson accurate. Good for Kentucky as

1082
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 1: well with I'm sure very heavy hearts.

1083
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:45,920
Speaker 3: And finally here as we jump over into the other category,

1084
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 3: the other bin, we've got a few things to talk about.

1085
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:51,040
Speaker 1: Disrespectful.

1086
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,320
Speaker 3: Toledo losing on a fake spike to Western Michigan was

1087
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 3: sort of my favorite moment. Also disrespectful, also very disrespectful.

1088
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 3: What else we had some wackiness in the group of five.

1089
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:04,880
Speaker 3: We had Boise blocking three.

1090
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 1: Kicks in a game. Yeah, return of Hank Hanks, back

1091
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:12,200
Speaker 1: Backmeyer Bachmeyer. I mean I'll stick with the mac right now.

1092
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 1: Buffalo taking it to Chas Martin and the Miami RedHawks,

1093
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,439
Speaker 1: right yeah, yeah, yeah, Buffalo out with a nice quick start.

1094
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 1: Lance Leopold Leypold, I always forget. Really nice start for

1095
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 1: the Bulls there. Kent State just demolished. Bowling Green and

1096
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: your boy Tie BVG sixty two points on a BVG defense.

1097
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:38,640
Speaker 1: I just who've seen everything? You've seen everything at this point. Well,

1098
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:41,840
Speaker 1: elsewhere we mentioned Tulsa to start the show, but a

1099
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 1: really nice comeback win against SMU and Ulyss has Bentley

1100
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: ran well for the Stangs, but ultimately Zack Smith Tulsa.

1101
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 1: There's giant Killers, and I think they are set up

1102
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 1: at Tulsa against Cincinnati to close out the season undefeated,

1103
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:02,120
Speaker 1: because Tulsa loses Tokelae State and Shane Illingworth to begin

1104
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:07,720
Speaker 1: the season. But they do host. Yeah, the old Hurricane

1105
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: hosts since the early December. I believe in a in

1106
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 1: a showdown, showdown.

1107
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1108
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 3: Cincinnati, by the way, rolls one up and wins fifty

1109
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:24,360
Speaker 3: five to seventeen, their fourth straight victory of twenty eight

1110
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 3: or more.

1111
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:30,160
Speaker 1: Points. Dan correct, Yeah, Cincinnati's in great shape. Elsewhere you

1112
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,360
Speaker 1: want to just go G five in general, Marshall. On

1113
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,160
Speaker 1: the anniversary of the plane crash, they have a very

1114
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 1: comfortable win against I believe it was Middle tennesse s

1115
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: Tennis said Raiders Tennis Blue Raiders. Excuse me, And I'm

1116
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: trying to think what else stood out to me. Hawaii

1117
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: goes down San Diego State. Hey, offense, like to see it,

1118
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,440
Speaker 1: love to see it. So my guy Schavon Cordero a

1119
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 1: head a down game Nevada very quiet four and oh

1120
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:56,160
Speaker 1: Carson Strong.

1121
00:58:58,160 --> 00:58:59,040
Speaker 4: I like this. I like this.

1122
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:02,840
Speaker 1: That was in Va against home team pop up home

1123
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:05,920
Speaker 1: team New Mexico. They're playing their home games in Vegas

1124
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 1: because of local ordinances. UCF comfortably beats Ah. It's weird

1125
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,560
Speaker 1: to see Temple down. Temple has been so solid for

1126
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 1: so long. It's it's not this year. It's not the out.

1127
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:21,480
Speaker 1: This year is year. Fresno State very quietly. They have

1128
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 1: a guy Rivers I like, I liked watching and he

1129
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,080
Speaker 1: was he was brought into our I think our timeline

1130
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 1: by Dane Brugler. Brugler of the Athletic. But yeah, Utah

1131
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,040
Speaker 1: State in their game without Gary Anderson, app State needed

1132
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:38,800
Speaker 1: a comeback. This is ahead of the Shot match up,

1133
00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: ahead of Coastal Jamie Caldwell, and they need to come

1134
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 1: back and win. Coastal and Troy was canceled Friday afternoon,

1135
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 1: I believe, or that's when it was announced anyway, So

1136
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 1: we hope everything is all right there. I don't know

1137
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,720
Speaker 1: if there's anything. I mean, army got smoked by Tulane

1138
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: with a real did they try like a really ugly

1139
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:02,919
Speaker 1: I think Tulane had a Tulane had a I don't

1140
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:04,680
Speaker 1: know how what would you qualify it. It's like a

1141
01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:10,320
Speaker 1: fumble catch because it was a pass back attempt on

1142
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 1: a kickoff return that Tulane returned for a touchdown in

1143
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 1: return for a touchdown, So I don't know if it's

1144
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:18,760
Speaker 1: a pick six, if it's I don't know. Whatever it was,

1145
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:23,600
Speaker 1: it was absurd and lovely. Ragelcagon's comfortably the Jags of

1146
01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:27,080
Speaker 1: South Alabama Malik willis full on dude for Liberty and

1147
01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:29,120
Speaker 1: they're comfortable with I mean, Western Carolina is you know

1148
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 1: that's an FCS team. They're playing the first game of

1149
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 1: the season, and I think only game of the season.

1150
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:37,360
Speaker 1: I believe maybe I'm wrong on that, and I think

1151
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:41,280
Speaker 1: that's all I have. We mentioned mactionin FAU took down

1152
01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 1: Max Borton Schlager and FIU transferred there.

1153
01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:46,439
Speaker 4: Wow.

1154
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,640
Speaker 1: Otherwise a largely good day for directional Michigan schools. Yeah,

1155
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:54,440
Speaker 1: the Toleda loss was you hate to see it. I

1156
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:57,560
Speaker 1: guess that's all I have. And cal UCLA kicks off

1157
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 1: in forty minutes forty minutes. Yeah, yeah, we'll talk about

1158
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:02,640
Speaker 1: that one on the Wednesday show.

1159
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:04,920
Speaker 3: Don't forget if you If you want to get kind

1160
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 3: of a local flavor for a lot of these matchups,

1161
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 3: go on over to the college football rewind our friends

1162
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 3: from Weirfield IMG College.

1163
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: You can get that.

1164
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 3: Wherever you get your podcasts, you can go on tune

1165
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 3: in search for college sports. Now do a good job

1166
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 3: jumping in back and forth talking, you know, through all

1167
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:24,760
Speaker 3: of the action that was in this yere week eleven.

1168
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,600
Speaker 3: You get to hear a lot of the local broadcasts,

1169
01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 3: which is always fun. I listened to it for a

1170
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 3: good chunk of the early games yesterday. I do in

1171
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 3: my leaves, Like I told you, I.

1172
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:39,480
Speaker 1: Was gonna successful. Leafing didn't go as well as out.

1173
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:40,920
Speaker 1: It didn't.

1174
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:43,840
Speaker 3: There were too many leaves to just run over with

1175
01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:49,160
Speaker 3: the lawnmower and didn't. It just didn't go as smoothly

1176
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 3: as I would have hoped.

1177
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:54,360
Speaker 1: But the front yard looks fine. The backyard, the backyard

1178
01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 1: is going to be a work in progress. So you

1179
01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 1: need the old David Wallace toy sucker from I need

1180
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:01,920
Speaker 1: its the the I need it. That's what you need. Okay,

1181
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 1: do you want to want to run over some dudes

1182
01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: right now. Instead of leaves, I would love to talk

1183
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:13,160
Speaker 1: about our dood alert. Give me some names, Dan, Sam Howell,

1184
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 1: Matt Corral, Sam Hartman Ty. Those were our three leading passers,

1185
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,960
Speaker 1: Sam and Sam four Hunt. Yeah, double Sam. We had

1186
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 1: double Kyle's as well. If you really want to get

1187
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 1: into the top passes the week, Kyle Trask and File

1188
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:29,120
Speaker 1: Cot File, Kyle Van Trees of Buffalo Tie Kevin Harrison

1189
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:30,360
Speaker 1: a losing effort. I don't know if you want to

1190
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 1: play the sound. But he goes for like over to forty.

1191
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:37,080
Speaker 1: I think against the Ole miss defense. That's something that counts.

1192
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:40,480
Speaker 1: That's that's impressive. And there it is Letty Brown for

1193
01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 1: West Virginia, of course, leading the way against i'd say

1194
01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 1: a pretty down TCU squad. And it was a fantastic

1195
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,920
Speaker 1: day for receivers. I want to highlight as well well,

1196
01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 1: actually before receivers. Jalen Phillips another ridiculous line at Miami,

1197
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,840
Speaker 1: just in back fields, affecting play constantly, making Hendon Hooker

1198
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,919
Speaker 1: as uncomfortable as humanly possible. But Elijah Moore, you mentioned

1199
01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:03,440
Speaker 1: we should probably retire at my guy ty Fry Fogel

1200
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 1: tie for Indiana, just to do everything out wide for them,

1201
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:10,360
Speaker 1: Diami Brown, Diami Brown for North Carolina, Renard Bell for Wazoo.

1202
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,080
Speaker 1: I mean they have two receivers that I think can

1203
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,800
Speaker 1: be pretty scary. I think it's Brown and Harris, Travon

1204
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: Harris or Belle and Harris. Excuse me, but those are

1205
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,360
Speaker 1: guys to keep an eye on. As the Pac twelve

1206
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 1: just doesn't tackle, just doesn't tackle. Wazoo's gonna put up

1207
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:28,040
Speaker 1: some points in some yardage. I don't know. We have

1208
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:33,440
Speaker 1: so many guys, so maybe notable. Probably second best acc

1209
01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 1: running back Ian Book. I mean Ian Book does have

1210
01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:39,480
Speaker 1: the ultimate luxury and that he gets to both pass

1211
01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:43,320
Speaker 1: it and hand it off to Ian Book. So nice,

1212
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 1: nice little luxury for Notre Dame. That's all I have

1213
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: in the way of dude. Some stupid video game numbers

1214
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:50,200
Speaker 1: and guys were all over the place on defense, but yeah,

1215
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: I wanted to shout out Jalen Phillips from Miami as well.

1216
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 3: Got a really good gamer, really good game. All right,

1217
01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:59,919
Speaker 3: that does it for the show this week. Don't forget

1218
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:04,480
Speaker 3: you can tune in to the previous show. As we

1219
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:07,840
Speaker 3: get into Wednesday, there are a bunch of interesting matchups

1220
01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:10,400
Speaker 3: next week. I'm looking at the list here. Just in

1221
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:13,000
Speaker 3: the top five, got Indiana, Ohio State.

1222
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,280
Speaker 1: We've got the app.

1223
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,760
Speaker 3: State Coastal Carolina game, which is interesting to us, it

1224
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 3: should be interesting to you.

1225
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 1: Oh, it's just good football.

1226
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:25,200
Speaker 3: We've got Ole, miss A and m which I'm quietly

1227
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 3: very interested in. Yeah, Cincinnati on the road at UCF

1228
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:35,120
Speaker 3: Wisconsin on the road in your backyard against the Northwestern Wildcats.

1229
01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 1: Huge case. Stay to the streets of Evanston without a mask,

1230
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:45,240
Speaker 1: but also without hearing people talk about Peyton Ramsey's ability

1231
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:47,160
Speaker 1: to turn the offense into something competent.

1232
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 3: K State Iisle State could be interesting. Tennessee Auburn could

1233
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:56,240
Speaker 3: be interesting. We've got Oklahoma State Oklahoma, the Bedlam game

1234
01:04:56,520 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 3: being played, and the Late Lake game is USC against

1235
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 3: zero and zero undefeated Utah.

1236
01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, if it happens, Oregon Ucla. I think I moved
