1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 2 00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 2: Welcome he to everybody, Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Saturday 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 2: into Sunday Air Tours. Jason Martin, we are broadcasting live 4 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 2: from the Fox Sports Radio studios. Just in insane, insane, 5 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 2: not only Saturday, but weekend of college football. A dropped 6 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 2: pass in the end zone right now by Alabama to Sega. 7 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:30,159 Speaker 3: Just told you. 8 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 2: The Iron Bowl is tied at twenty with six minutes 9 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 2: to go. Refs are conferring. There is a flag on 10 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: the ground. DJ Dirkin, Auburn interm head coaches yelling, I 11 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,959 Speaker 2: think that probably means it. No that Caalin de Boor 12 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 2: looks mad too. Let's go ahead and see it. Oh 13 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 2: roughing the passer on Auburn, so you'll get a first 14 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: down there. Alabama will be inside the red zone. Five 15 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: minutes to go. Big one, Ja mart because there's under 16 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 2: six minutes and Alabama can bleed a pretty chunky length 17 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: of the clock right now and still kick a field 18 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 2: goal to take a twenty three to twenty lead. But 19 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: what's up, my man? First of all, happy Thanksgiving, real quick. 20 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: We got a lot of college football and NFL to 21 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 2: talk over the next three hours. I know you were 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 2: in for two pros Thanksgiving morning. But did you have 23 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: a good holiday? 24 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: Mymm yeah, I was in Thursday and Friday. So I've 25 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: definitely talked to a lot of sports the last few days. 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: But there's been a lot of sports to talk about, 27 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: so not much to complain about. A good holiday, and 28 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: everything's everything's gravy around here, better here than it is 29 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: in Oxford or Baton Rouge. As Kiff and Watch continues, 30 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: it's actually kind of now starting to get irritating. 31 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 2: Okay, so it is starting to get irritating. I will 32 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: give you an update really quick. On the late game, 33 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 2: Ty Simpson a run basically to the Auburn one yard line. 34 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: Then it appeared to though there was a helmet to helmet. 35 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: So Alabama's gonna score here? 36 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: Nah, they touchdown? 37 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 3: Well, they put up a touchdown. 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: I take back what I said, because there was a 39 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 2: hold on Alabama on the outside wide receiver Isaiah Horton 40 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 2: with the hold that sounds like a Doctor Seuss book 41 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 2: or something. 42 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:19,959 Speaker 3: Horton with the hold. 43 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 2: But Alabama and Auburn are tied to twenty a piece. 44 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 2: Alabama needs to win this game to go to the 45 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: SEC Championship game. If they lose this game, not only 46 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: are they out of the SEC Championship Game, but very 47 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 2: likely out of the college football Playoff as well. And 48 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, Jamart, that actually perfectly transitions into 49 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 2: what you were talking about, because obviously a big part 50 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 2: of if Alabama doesn't win this game, it means that 51 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: Old Miss is going to the SEC Championship Game. So 52 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: I will reset what we think we know about Lane 53 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: Kiffin as of eleven h four Eastern time here on 54 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 2: Saturday night, he was supposed to make a decision today 55 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: on his future. The hold up is Old Miss, to 56 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 2: their credit, looked awesome on Friday. There didn't appear to 57 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: be any you know, lingering effects of Kiffen flirting with 58 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: basically every job in America. But I bring it up 59 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 2: because Old Miss wins and then Texas A and M 60 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 2: losing means that Old Miss is now in a holding 61 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 2: pattern on if they would make their first ever SEC 62 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 2: Championship game a win. Here in the Iron Bowl, and 63 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 2: for people just joining us, the Iron Bowl is tied 64 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: at twenty with about four and a half minutes to go. 65 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: A win by Alabama sends them. A loss means Old 66 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 2: Miss goes and so I bring it up because it 67 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 2: feels like that is the hold up right now with 68 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin. He did meet with Old Miss officials today 69 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: a paraphrase what Ross Dellinger from Yahoo is reporting. It 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: basically seems to me, J Martin, you could tell me 71 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: if you disagree. It sounds like Kiffin's basically throwing a 72 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: fit that Old Miss will not let him coach in 73 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 2: the post season and then also accept the LSU head 74 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: coaching job. That's where it feels like it's at. The 75 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: latest report from Ross Dellinger as of about twenty minutes 76 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: ago is that LSU executives quote from Ross Dellinger set 77 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 2: are let's see here, University is sending two planes to 78 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: Oxford on Sunday for Kiffen and his friends and family. 79 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: So the expectation is Lane Kiffin is going to accept 80 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: the LSU job on Sunday. Again, part of potential hold 81 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: ups here is that we don't know if Ole Miss 82 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 2: is going to be in the SEC Championship game. It 83 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 2: seems to me like Lane Kiffin wants this job. Lane 84 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 2: Kiffin is on the verge of accepting this job, but 85 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: he also wants to have his cake and eat it too. 86 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: And coach Old Miss at minimum in the SEC Championship game, 87 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: but probably throughout the postseason as well. 88 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, I understand he wants that, but that's ridiculous. 89 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: It really is. Like, and if you're from the southeastern 90 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: part of the country or understand rivalries at all, LSU 91 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: is a big time rival of Old Miss on top 92 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: of everything else. But this just do it doesn't work 93 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: that way. Like, if you want to go to LSU, 94 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: go if that's the job that you want, If that's 95 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: the one when we know it is because you wanted 96 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: it four years ago. So obviously it's an enticing job. 97 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: We understand all that goes into being the coach there 98 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: and the just the the attention and everything else that 99 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: comes with it. We get it. If you want to go, go, 100 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: But this whole idea that you should still be able 101 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: to stay with this team and finish this run. First off, 102 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: you've got recruiting, you've got a transfer portal, you've got 103 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: nil you've got all these deals that need to be made. 104 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: LSU is going to hire you to be their coach. 105 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: That means you need to go do that job. You 106 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 1: can't do the Old Miss job throughout this period. And 107 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: then go after the fact. And Ole, miss, why would 108 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: they want you around at this point? And the irritating 109 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: part about this is I'm a Laye Kiffin fan and 110 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: I have been for pretty much all of this reclamation 111 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: project that we've seen pretty much since he went to FAU. 112 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: But a lot of this is becoming self inflicted. Yes, 113 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: it really really is. And you know, I saw this. 114 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: I read a few articles today and I'm sure you 115 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: probably saw this discourse probably on social media. Aaron. The 116 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: way that a certain television network is carrying water for 117 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: laying Kiffin right now is kind of incredible, especially with 118 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: the tie in CAA that's attached to all of it. 119 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: But it's just like, I can't believe that there is 120 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: an argument for letting him continue to coach in this situation, 121 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: Like if he wants to go to LSU, he should 122 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: go ahead and hop on a plane and go there 123 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: and begin his career there and all more power to 124 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: him and hope he wins championships and whatever else over there, like, 125 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: but he's got to close the chapter here. You can't 126 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: continue to date the girl that you're cheating on, like 127 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: it can't continue to go in this way, And Ole Miss. 128 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: This is a thing that I have increasingly thought throughout 129 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: the course of the day. They have to think, is 130 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: this just gonna happen every year? 131 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 3: Yep. 132 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: And at that point in time, even if you like 133 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: what he has done for you, which of course you do, 134 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: you almost have to say, man, go ahead and go man. 135 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: It's clear that you're gonna want to be somewhere else. 136 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: I understand that you like us and you don't want 137 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: to hurt us. I get it, man, So let's just 138 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: break this thing off and let's move on. It's very 139 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: obvious to me now he wants to go to LSU 140 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: and there's this pesky nuisance of ole Miss being good. Yes, 141 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: it's making it hard for him. It's like, if only 142 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: we could have lost a couple more games, it would 143 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: have been easier for me to leave. And that right 144 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: there means go tonight, go ahead and say it. Put 145 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: on the colors, have the splash screens up at LSU 146 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: and everything else, and move on from this because this 147 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: is a bad look. It's a bad look, and it's 148 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: just making him if all the stuff that he's trying 149 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: to do to try and fix this or not be 150 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: a villain at the end, of it. He's becoming a 151 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: bigger villain by the minute because of the last couple 152 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: of days. 153 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 3: So I'll tell you a true story. 154 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 2: You know, I know somebody pretty high up at Ole 155 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 2: miss who I would say, you know, I don't know 156 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 2: the last ten days if he has had regular conversations 157 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: with Lane Kiffin, but certainly with somebody that Lane Kiffin 158 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 2: dealt with on a regular basis, you know, certainly up 159 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: until these last couple weeks. And I bring it up 160 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: because this guy told me from the beginning the number 161 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 2: one biggest issue. And some of this is a credit 162 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: to Lane Kiffin. By the way, Alabama has just converted 163 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: a fourth and two to take a twenty seven to 164 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 2: twenty lead in the Iron Bowl. Well twenty six twenty. 165 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: They are going to kick the pat Auburn will get 166 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 2: the ball back with about four minutes to. 167 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: Go first off. That's a gutsy call. 168 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, So, you know, bad radio hosting on my part 169 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 2: because I actually didn't even realize it was fourth down 170 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: until I literally just saw it. Alabama has taken the lead. 171 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: I don't you know, the field goal kicker made a 172 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 2: field goal earlier in the game, so I don't know 173 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 2: if there was a reason that they don't trust him 174 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: or whatever. But they convert the fourth down, they are 175 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 2: going to be up twenty seven to twenty extra point pending. 176 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: Alabama is officially up twenty seven to twenty four minutes 177 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 2: to go. Auburn has the ball, all three timeouts, and 178 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 2: again what's at stake here. Alabama with a win goes 179 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 2: to the SEC Title Game to play Georgia. A loss, 180 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: Alabama would be out of the SEC Title Game. Old 181 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: Miss would be in the SEC Title Game. Alabama also 182 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: very likely would be out of the college football playoff picture. 183 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 3: So keep you update on that. 184 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: Auburn will have to go the length of the field 185 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 2: touchdown and then obviously they could choose to go for 186 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 2: two if they were. 187 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,079 Speaker 3: Inclined to go for the win. 188 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 2: So with Lane Kiffin, So what this person told me 189 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 2: was that basically, it's exactly what you said. And part 190 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 2: of this is a credit to Lane Kiffin. He did 191 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 2: not think that this team was going to be this good, 192 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 2: and he did not think this team was going to 193 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 2: be in position, and we all know, based on the 194 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 2: reporting that has come out really over the last year, 195 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: he was ready to take the Florida job last year 196 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 2: and then you know, Billy Nipeer went out of this 197 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 2: little four or five game win streak to end the year, 198 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 2: and so he was ready to leave for Florida last year. 199 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 2: It doesn't happen. He's back at Ole Miss and the 200 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 2: team just keeps winning, including up through yesterday, and so 201 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 2: that is what has made it, you know whatever. And 202 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: then you add in the fact that you have a 203 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 2: potential trip to the SEC championship game that seems to 204 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: be complicating things as well. So I'm with you on 205 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: everything is that the team winning is doing a disservice. 206 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 2: Let me say this though, because one you mentioned basically, 207 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 2: I'll just say ESPN and specifically College Game Day and 208 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 2: specifically for people who don't follow the Dynamics. Nick Saban 209 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 2: has the same agent as Lane Kiffen and Kirk kerb 210 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 2: Street at minimum is represented by the same agency. I 211 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: don't know really, Okay, And so there you go. 212 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 3: Booger. 213 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: McFarland, by the way, is an LSU alum, and so 214 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 2: he has a conflict of interest right there. But apparently, 215 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 2: you know, I was traveling this morning to get back 216 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 2: to LA from my holiday. Apparently there was a big 217 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 2: discourse on college game day about how you it's the 218 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 2: right thing to do to let them coach to this 219 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 2: and that I'm one hundred percent with you, is that 220 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: you listen at some paint. 221 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 3: What's that? 222 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: That's insane? 223 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: It is insane, And first of all, you know, listen. 224 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 2: It'd be one thing if Old Miss had been not 225 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: a committal all along. But I think Old Miss letting 226 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 2: him even coach the Egg Bowl while he's openly flirting 227 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 2: with other schools, I think they did him a solid. Now, 228 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 2: part of it was to protect themselves in case they 229 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 2: lost against Misissippi State. They obviously wanted to win the game, 230 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 2: but they gave you the deadline. They let you coach through. 231 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 2: But the notion that you're just gonna get to keep 232 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 2: coaching this team for a month while, by the way, 233 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 2: all your hypothetical replacements are scooped up because there are 234 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: four other SEC head coaching job SEC openings, Penn State's open, 235 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 2: UCLA's open, whatever. There's that part of it, and then 236 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: the other part, which you mentioned, Jmart, you know what you're. 237 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 3: Doing by allowing Lane Kiffen. 238 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 2: To coach to the College Football Playoff, you are letting 239 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: him hang out with the players that he is about 240 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 2: to recruit to LSU. Yes, the second the season ends, 241 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 2: And so this notion that somehow Lane Kiffin is a 242 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: victim here, I'm one hundred percent with you. My stance 243 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 2: on this has been pretty universal pretty much from the beginning. 244 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: He should do whatever he thinks is best for his future. 245 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,319 Speaker 2: But at the same time, stop stringing people along. And 246 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 2: I think the big thing is pull the plug. And 247 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: I think what frustrates me to j Mart, you know 248 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: this is that all of these coaches in this world 249 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 2: that we live in right this nil portal world where 250 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: every player is a free agent every single season, these 251 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 2: coaches all tell these players, guys, block out the noise 252 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 2: during the season. By the way, don't come to me 253 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 2: with crap during the season. Mike Gundy famously said this 254 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: a few years ago. By the way, Auburn goes three 255 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 2: and out in this game, they're gonna have to punt 256 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 2: the ball back. There's over two minutes to go. They 257 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: do have all three time outs. It looks like they're 258 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 2: gonna stay on the field. So I take back what 259 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 2: I said. It looked like they were going into punt formation. 260 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: They're gonna go for it on fourth and four. Here 261 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 2: a first down, you know, keeps the drive alive. If 262 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 2: they don't get the first down, which they do not, 263 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 2: Alabama is gonna take over the ball at midfield. Up, 264 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: we got a flag. We gotta have a flag. It's 265 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 2: going to be past interference. Kayalin de Borr is losing 266 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,479 Speaker 2: his mind. Auburn will get a first down at midfield. 267 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: You're ready for twenty seven to twenty six. Alabama wins 268 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: this because Auburn fails a two point conversion. Oh, it's coming, 269 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: it's absolutely That's what I'm seeing in my head right now. 270 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, DJ Dirk and it's gonna be his glory 271 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: moment where you know he's gonna be able to win 272 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: the job with a win. 273 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 3: And yeah, pass interference. I think it was probably the 274 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 3: right call on Alabama. 275 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: Alburn the most vicious PI I've ever seen, but there 276 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: was some contact there early. 277 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was so Auburn has the ball officially at midfield. 278 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 2: Apologize to the audience that we're bouncing back and forth, 279 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 2: but this Iron Bowl obviously has major ramifications on everything 280 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 2: we're talking about. But I'll wrap on Kiffin and I 281 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 2: don't even remember where I was, necessarily, but what I 282 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 2: do remember saying is you can't put him in a 283 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: you can't put him in a position where he is 284 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 2: around the players that he will then be recruiting to 285 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 2: LSU the second the season ends. And so I don't 286 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: blame ole Miss. I think there was this narrative all 287 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: week that was certainly heightened on College Game Day today 288 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 2: of this notion that you have to let him coach. 289 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: It's the right thing to do. What I would saying, Jaymartin, 290 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: I'll throw it to you. I promise is that all 291 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 2: these coaches tell these players block out the noise. I 292 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 2: don't want to hear from your agent about renegotiating during 293 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: the season. We'll address that when the season's over. No distractions, 294 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: and then Lane Kiffin becomes the number one distraction. If 295 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 2: you want to take the job, you should. But I 296 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: don't want to see sympathy from you because you're not 297 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 2: allowed to coach a team that you will not commit 298 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 2: to beyond this season, that you're that you will be 299 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 2: allowed to coach them in the postseason. 300 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, there was honestly, I mean, I guess 301 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: it would be Herbstreet that mainly said something to something 302 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: to the effect that ole Miss needs to take the 303 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: emotion out of this how exactly? 304 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 3: I think they have honestly as best you can. 305 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: But I mean, really quick, guy says he doesn't want 306 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: to be there, really he wants to go take the 307 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: other job. Then what how are you supposed to feel? 308 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: Are you? Then? Well, yes, but you can still continue 309 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: to coach our football. There's emotion involved, like that's that's 310 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: a that's a real easy thing to say when it's 311 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: not your emotion on the line. 312 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: Really quick, I think they have taken the emotion out. 313 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 2: I think the emotional thing to do would be like, 314 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 2: you know, you know the the high school, you know, 315 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 2: Hope high school prom Hope you had the time of 316 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 2: your life playing in the background. 317 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 3: Okay, Lane, let's finish what we started. 318 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 2: I think they took the emotion out of it of 319 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 2: we're not gonna let you hijack this program potentially into 320 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 2: January to then leave for to your point that you 321 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: brought up one of the biggest rivals that we have. 322 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 2: I think they actually took the emotion out of it 323 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 2: of like, dude, if you don't want to be here, 324 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 2: that's fine, but we're gonna move on. And I think 325 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 2: Lane is being the one that's kind of emo. And listen, 326 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 2: Lane's a great coach, but let's call spade a spade. 327 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 2: He is a guy that has thrown tantrums when officiating 328 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: calls don't go his way. When early in the transfer 329 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 2: portal nil portion of this college football world, he was 330 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: throwing tantrums about where. He's a tantrum thrower. He always 331 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 2: has been. I hate to be a and it feels 332 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 2: to me like he's throwing a tantrument. I actually think 333 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 2: Old Miss did take the emotion out of it, and 334 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 2: I think Lane is the one that's being emotional when 335 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 2: he is the one that is, by the way, you 336 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: want to put all this emotion aside. There's very easy 337 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 2: decision Lane sign a contract extension, stay coach a team 338 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 2: in the playoff. I think he is the one being 339 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 2: emotional and not Old Miss. 340 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think that's right. I think. But 341 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: at the same time, like there, okay, so I agree 342 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: with what you just said. But at the same time, 343 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: he is essentially saying, it's not you, it's me, Like 344 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 1: I like you, I just don't like like like you. Like. 345 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: That's kind of what we're seeing here. It's because if 346 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: he actually, if they had this meeting and it went 347 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: two three hours as reported at the Chancellor's house and 348 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,959 Speaker 1: all this other kind of stuff, and it left unresolved. 349 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: Then it has nothing to do with whether or not 350 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna stay. We know he's not gonna stay, Like, 351 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: it's very obvious that he's gonna leave. All he's trying 352 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: to do is negotiate a way that he can stay 353 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: around for a little while longer. And it's like no, man, Like, 354 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: if I'm if Carter gives into that, I imagine the old 355 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: Miss Faithful are not gonna be particularly happy with it 356 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: because basically their coach is saying, I mean, I gotta go, 357 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: but I want to stick around for another month for 358 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 1: a little while. Would that be all right with you? 359 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: And the answer should be no. Again, Like, it's very 360 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 1: obvious that he's not going to stay, because they left 361 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: the meeting with it unresolved. The only I mean, that's 362 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: the the only question there is. I mean, it wasn't 363 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: it wasn't gonna be hard for him to stay at 364 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: Ole Miss. He just says, I'm gonna stay at Ole Miss. 365 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: They sign a contract together, they walk out and announce it. 366 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 1: The fact that they left in different vehicles and it's 367 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: still unresolved means just what you said, like he is 368 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: throwing a tantrum in order to try and get both 369 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: things to happen, and it's just not going to because 370 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: this is Earth and that's not how things work well. 371 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 3: And lastly, I'll put a ball on this because we 372 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 3: got to come back and talk about the end of 373 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 3: the Iron Bowl. 374 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: Here Auburn driving down twenty seven twenty with under two 375 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 2: men minutes to go at this point, I'll just put 376 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 2: a ball on it by saying this is that. Also, 377 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 2: why are you meeting to begin with what is new? 378 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 2: Unless you're telling them we're gonna I'm coming back because 379 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 2: we may be at the SEC Championship Game. There was 380 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 2: nothing new to discuss. And so, in fact, yeah, the 381 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 2: fact that it's still unresolved at eleven twenty eastern, ten 382 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 2: twenty central after your regular season finale tells me everything 383 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 2: I need to know. It's a matter of if not when. 384 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 2: And I actually give all Miss credit for making the 385 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 2: decision that they did.

Who's driving around. You're 420 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 2: driving back from Thanksgiving dinner. You're wondering what is gonna 421 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 2: happen and what does it mean for the college football 422 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 2: playoff picture? Alabama needs to win the Iron Bowl. When 423 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 2: we last spoke, I don't know, five minutes ago, Auburn 424 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 2: driving Alabama up twenty seven to twenty with right over 425 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 2: two minutes to go. Alabama our Auburn has the ball. 426 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 2: They're driving. Cam Coleman, their star receiver, makes a catch 427 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 2: and fumbles it recovered by Alabama. Alabama gets the ball back. 428 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 2: Auburn has all three times they manage to stop Alabama 429 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 2: force the punt. Auburn fumbles the punt out of bounds, 430 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: but has two plays the game ends they cannot find 431 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: the end zone. Alabama wins twenty seven to twenty. They 432 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 2: have clinched a spot in the SEC Championship Game, where 433 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 2: they will play Georgia. It does mean, by the way, 434 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 2: that ole Miss will not play again until the College 435 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 2: Football Playoff. They will not be going to the SEC 436 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 2: Championship Game. Very likely means one Lane Kiffin has coached 437 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 2: his last game at ol Miss. We expect him, according 438 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: to a report from Ross Ellander, to accept the LSU 439 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 2: job and be on a plane to Baton Rouge on 440 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: Sunday morning. 441 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 3: Two. 442 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 2: Alabama, with the trip to the SEC Championship Game at 443 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 2: ten to two, in my opinion, has officially clinched a 444 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 2: college football playoff spot as well. I do not think 445 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 2: the committee is going to punish a team, even if 446 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: they lose to Georgia next week, that has advanced to 447 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 2: Atlanta for the SEC Championship Game. 448 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: No, I don't either. I think this definitely closed the 449 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: door on some other teams, closed some possibilities, and of 450 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 1: course made some pads a lot more difficult, and there's 451 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: not that many games left to play, quite frankly, so 452 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: there's there's just a few teams and most of those 453 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: are not going to affect the College Football Playoffs standings 454 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: in terms of who's going to get in and who 455 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: is not. It might determine automatic bids, but you know, 456 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: credit to Auburn for being better since Hugh Freeze left 457 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: than they were when he was there. There's still a 458 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: lot of work to be done, and of course they've 459 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: got a coaching decision to make. Maybe DJ Dirkin still 460 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: ends up with that gig. I sort of doubt it, 461 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: But we are getting to a point where once this 462 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: Lane Kiffen thing and now that they're not going to 463 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: be in the SEC championship game them meaning ole miss, 464 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and do this man like, Let's let's 465 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: go ahead and find out in the next ten minutes 466 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: that it's over. Like, you don't have to coach in 467 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: the SEC title, You're not going to coach in a 468 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: college football playoff. I do not see a scenario where 469 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: they're going to back down from that and allow that 470 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: to happen. So let's just go ahead and end this 471 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: charade and let's move on. Let old miss move on 472 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: to the targets that they've already been looking at over 473 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 1: the last week because they kind of saw this coming. 474 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: And let's go ahead and let this carousel start to 475 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: take shape, because there's been a lot of dominoes that 476 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: have been sitting here waiting to fall based on what 477 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: Lane was going to do. And time's up. Like this, 478 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: this needs to come to an end, needs to come 479 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: to a head. Go on to Baton rouge and do 480 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: your thing, man, But this, this whole old misflirtation is 481 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: now over like this, this has got to go. You 482 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: flirted with Auburn in twenty twenty two, you flirted with 483 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: Florida and LSU this time around. If I'm ole, miss, 484 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: I want somebody that wants me, and reurely, you're always 485 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: gonna have a wandering eye and I hate it. Man. 486 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: I really wanted him to stay. I wanted him to 487 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: build a legacy at a place that didn't have a 488 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 1: built in legacy, and not just be the next guy 489 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: to win. I wanted him to be the guy to 490 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: build a program because I think it means so much 491 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 1: more and it would be so much more impressive, and 492 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: it would show some growth and some maturity in this. 493 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: But this is the lane Kiffen that has always existed, 494 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: the lane Kiffen that is always sort of looking elsewhere 495 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: for a bigger gig. And when he took the old 496 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 1: miss job, I think everybody thought, well, how long is 497 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 1: he going to be there before a bigger job opens up? 498 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 1: If he's successful, yep, And so this is this is 499 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 1: kind of the end of that the end of that road. 500 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: But if I don't see this over the next ten 501 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 1: or fifteen minutes, I'm gonna be a little bit frustrated, 502 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: like we need to end this now. 503 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 3: Needs one more night to sleep on it. 504 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: And one it was midday meeting with the ad just 505 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 2: to confirm that he's one hundred percent out. Yeah, no, listen, 506 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 2: I'm with you. A couple quick thoughts on that. By 507 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 2: the way, I should mention, there's actually a very notable 508 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 2: result that is about to go final. 509 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 3: Cal is about to beat SMU. 510 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, Cal up thirty eight thirty five with eleven seconds 511 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 2: to go. I guess it's not done yet because SMU 512 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 2: has the ball eleven seconds to go. Fringes of field 513 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 2: goal range jmrt if CAL were too upset SMU we 514 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 2: would have in next week's ACC title game. Oh No Virginia, 515 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 2: which by the way, has two losses, both to ACC opponents. 516 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 2: Only one counts of the conference standings though, and the 517 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 2: seven and five but six and two in league play, 518 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 2: Duke Blue Devils would be playing for the ACC championship game. 519 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 2: Why don't we wait until all this is done before 520 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 2: we start breaking down hypotheticals and what it all means. 521 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 2: And I think probably the best bet, Ja Mart is 522 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 2: to just reset the playoff picture at the top of 523 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 2: the next hour. We could talk a little at Michigan. 524 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 2: Ohiose state really quick. Guys want to put a bow 525 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 2: on Kiffin one? I agree with you on this is 526 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 2: who he is. And I think when you think about 527 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 2: the crazy manner in which he has left pretty much 528 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 2: every job you live in Tennessee basically left under riot 529 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 2: circumstances in Knoxville. By the way, I don't even blame 530 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 2: the fans. I'm just saying that was basically how it 531 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 2: ended USC on the tarmac famously. I think people forget 532 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 2: this one, Jay Mart. He was fired before a national 533 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:29,239 Speaker 2: championship game as the Alabama offensive coordinator and now he 534 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 2: is going to leave Old Miss, you know, with a 535 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 2: playoff appearance on the line. You know I said this 536 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 2: last week and I stand by it. You Know, people 537 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 2: were saying, you know, we talked about the college game 538 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 2: day guy saying. 539 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 3: You know, let him finish when he started. 540 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: I'm glad we moved past the Well, this is a 541 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 2: byproduct of the calendar. No, I'm sorry. The calendar was 542 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: never made with the intention that a dude from the 543 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: SEC that has a team going to the college football 544 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 2: playoff was going to leave for another job. And I 545 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 2: guess we'll put a ball on kid him by saying 546 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 2: is there anything And I'll just ask you is there 547 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 2: anything either side could have done differently? I think I 548 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 2: think Ole Miss actually handled it about as well as 549 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: you could U. I think with Kiffin, I guess I 550 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 2: sort of understand why he was kind of dragging his 551 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 2: feet today knowing that there was a potential SEC title 552 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: game on the line. But it's just an unfortunate way 553 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: to end, because, like you said, it's an incredible run 554 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 2: that he had. It is, to his credit, the best 555 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 2: run that that program has had basically in any of 556 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 2: our lives, maybe in school history. But it's going to 557 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 2: end in just this ugly, ugly, ugly fashion. And then 558 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 2: to your point, he's going to a pretty big rival 559 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: which is going to continue to make it ugly. 560 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. The only thing that maybe you could look at 561 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: sideways from the ole Miss perspective is I don't know 562 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: if Carter the ad needed to say the day after 563 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: the egg Bowl, we're going to have this announcement. You know, 564 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: we're going to have a meeting, like he kind of 565 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: he kind of turned this into an event when maybe 566 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: he didn't have to agree with that. Yep. I think 567 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: maybe they could have been a little bit more behind 568 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: closed doors, even if there was an ultimatum, even if 569 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: there was uh yeah, day after the egg Bowl, we 570 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: need to have this finalized. We need to meet, and 571 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: this needs to be done. I don't know that the 572 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: rest of the world needed to know that. I think 573 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: that that was the one thing that Olemiss did wrong 574 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: because that was always probably going to paint Lane Kiffin 575 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: in a pretty villainous light because and we talked about it, right, 576 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: it's become very irritating. It would be less irritating if 577 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: we weren't expecting it all day long and hadn't been 578 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: you know, ballyhooing it all week long because of that 579 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: announcement from Keith Carter. 580 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked about it last week. 581 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 2: You know, it was interesting how we both perceived, you know, 582 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 2: the statement to be different. But I do agree with 583 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 2: from the beginning it could have been. Hey, you know, 584 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 2: coach Kiffin has to weigh all his options. Our full 585 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 2: focus is on winning the egg Bowl, and both sides 586 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 2: will figure things out, you know, following the egg Bowl 587 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:00,239 Speaker 2: or something like that. 588 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 3: You know, I don't know. 589 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 2: There was a way you could do it where it 590 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 2: was less Hey, the day after the egg Bowl, it's 591 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 2: the decision part two, Yes, and we're going to have 592 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 2: an Old Miss inn LSU and a Florida hat on 593 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 2: the table and we're gonna figure it out. So, uh, 594 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 2: the latest we'll get to disagre with everything, but Alabama 595 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 2: wins the Iron Bowl, they're going to the SEC Championship game. 596 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 2: That eliminates Old Miss from the SEC title game. We 597 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: expect Lane Kiffin to be on a plane to Baton 598 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 2: Rouge tomorrow, and there is a final that is noteworthy 599 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 2: in Berkeley, Disaga. I don't want to steal everything from 600 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 2: your updates, so I'll just kind of give you the 601 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 2: floor because there are still some notable college football games 602 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 2: going on. 603 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 6: Duke is going to the ACC title game. That's how 604 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 6: stupid this college football season. 605 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 3: So I have a really quick take. 606 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: Man Lightner is a great player. 607 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 3: I think that they Jay will Yeah, the Duke football 608 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 3: gets on the call. So can we stop? 609 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 2: Can we just eliminate conference championship games and give the 610 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: auto bid to the highest like the fact that we're 611 00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 2: gonna have to do a Miami Notre. 612 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 6: Dame eliminating a payout. They do charge people admission for 613 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 6: the conference. 614 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 2: Champions one's gonna go to these games. I mean, I 615 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: actually think the Big. 616 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 6: Twelve get TV money for these games. 617 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 3: I understand that there's got to be a better way 618 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 3: to pick twelve teams. 619 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 6: Absolutely there is, because the twelfth ranked team, Miami, is 620 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 6: nowhere near the college playoff. 621 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 2: That's what I mean. And maybe we saved the Miami 622 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 2: Notre Dame bigger picture for later. I don't want to 623 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 2: interrupt you. 624 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 6: Miami already won today thirty eight to seven at Pittsburgh. However, 625 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 6: Miami has two conference losses. SMU just lost at cal 626 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 6: SMU has two conference losses. Pitt with two conference losses, 627 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 6: Georgia Tech two conference losses, and Duke Duke, which was 628 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 6: six and five to start the day, is going to 629 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 6: the ACC championship game against eighteenth ranked Virginia, which beat 630 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 6: Virginia Tech twenty seven to seven. This SMU loss. They 631 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 6: were down at Cal thirty one fourteen early fourth quarter, 632 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 6: then scored three unanswered touchdowns, took the lead at Cal 633 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 6: thirty five thirty one with under two and a half 634 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 6: minutes to go. California answers with a seven play seventy 635 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 6: five yard drive in about a minute and a half 636 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 6: to retake the lead. Sm You missed a fifty two 637 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 6: yard field goal attempt wide at the end, thirty eight 638 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 6: thirty five California with the victory. 639 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: Ninth rank noted. 640 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 6: AM leads twenty one nothing at Stanford early in the 641 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 6: second quarter. Also in progress, We've got UNLV ready to 642 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 6: go to ten and two of thirty five ten at 643 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 6: Nevada in the third quarter. Seemingly half of the Mountain 644 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 6: West Conference is going to be tied for first. Fresno 645 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 6: State is leading thirteen to seven at San Jose State 646 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 6: second quarter and the late game at Hawaii as the 647 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 6: home team tied with Wyoming seven to seven at the 648 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 6: end of one. I'm just guessing that the temperature in 649 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 6: Wyoming tonight is slightly different than the temperature in Hawaii tonight. 650 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 6: Number ten, Alabama a winner at Auburn twenty seven to twenty. 651 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 6: You know, this game delivers again that Auburn had no 652 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 6: business being this close. They finished one to seven in 653 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 6: the SEC and yet down seventeen to nothing in the 654 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 6: first half, they come back to tie it at twenty 655 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 6: before Bama wins on a touchdown pass with under four 656 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 6: minutes left on a fourth and two. 657 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 2: Hey, the seger, so we were live. I don't know 658 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 2: if you were able to hear the broadcast? Did they 659 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 2: Was it just we're going for the touchdown? 660 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 6: Were My assumption is because this coach did a similar 661 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 6: thing when he was at Washington that you know, I 662 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 6: won't say he's Dan Campbell or anything like that, but 663 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 6: it's not the first time he's done something like that. 664 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 6: You might recall the Cam Newton game in this rivalry series, 665 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 6: where yes, Auburn was down more than seventeen points and 666 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 6: wound up coming back to win in twenty ten. In fact, 667 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 6: going into tonight, Alabama since the Cam Newton game had 668 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 6: won one hundred and fifty straight games when leading by 669 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 6: seventeen or more. Wow nearly nearly blew the seventeen oh 670 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 6: lead in this one, But Bama twenty seven to twenty 671 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 6: is the final. Texas Tech and BYU each one.

North 696 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 6: Texas coach is leaving for the Oklahoma State job. But 697 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 6: this has to do with your Kiffin conversation. He is 698 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 6: sticking around to finish the season with Northel. 699 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 3: There are a lot cleaner ways to have handled it 700 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 3: than Lane Kiff and Cleary. 701 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 6: Well, you could say that at any Lane Kiffin stop. 702 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 3: I mean literally, it's it's unbelievable. 703 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 6: One NBA note, Detroit wins one thirty eight, one thirty 704 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 6: five at Miami, ending a six game win streak of 705 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 6: the heat back to you, Oh, Notre Dame just scored again. 706 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 6: My goodness, that's already twenty eight.

A lot of college football coming up, 717 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 2: and of course a busy week in the NFL. 718 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 3: Discuss it all. 719 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 1: Next. Fox Sports Radio, you're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 720 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 3: Welcome back everybody. Fox Sports Radio. 721 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 2: Here Torris Jason Martin broadcasting live from the Fox Sports 722 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 2: Radio studios. We are live here right before midnight Eastern. 723 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 2: Notre Dame up twenty eight nothing going for style points, 724 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 2: some other results of note. You know, Jamart, I you know, 725 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 2: I want to start with this one, and we're gonna 726 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 2: kind of really dive deep into the college football play 727 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,240 Speaker 2: I guess, by the way, we should start with Michigan 728 00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 2: Ohio State. I just I don't think that there is 729 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 2: a takeaway. I mean, yes, the takeaway is Ohio State 730 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: broke the four game losing streak. Michigan was up six 731 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,879 Speaker 2: to nothing at one point and really had a chance 732 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 2: to kind of open it up. My big takeaway was 733 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 2: Ohio State was better at literally every spot on the field. 734 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 2: They ran the ball better, they defended better, the quarterback 735 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 2: was better. They look like what the number one team 736 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 2: in the country that is twelve and zero going into 737 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 2: a Big Ten championship game should look like. I know 738 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 2: what the history is you me, we had Bernie Fredawan 739 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 2: last week. We all expected a comfortable Ohio State when 740 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: we got that. I don't know if you have a 741 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 2: ton else to add on that one, but wanted to 742 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 2: kind of give you the floor just because it is 743 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: Michigan Ohio State. 744 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just kind of the you wanted to 745 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: see that from Ohio State to feel better about them 746 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: as we kind of get into the spot where they're 747 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 1: actually going to see some actual football teams. But yeah, 748 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: I mean, to your point, there was nothing that Michigan 749 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: had to offer. They muck did up a little bit 750 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 1: early and so it was a bit of a slog 751 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,879 Speaker 1: in the first half, but you could never at any 752 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 1: point see a universe where Michigan was going to win 753 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 1: that game. You were just kind of waiting for Ohio 754 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: State to overwhelm them, and they did on all sides 755 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: of the ball, and like Michigan just that was a mismatch, 756 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 1: and we kind of thought that going in, But because 757 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: of the history, you kind of look at it and say, well, 758 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: you know, these games can get kind of walkie, they 759 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,800 Speaker 1: can get kind of weird. Well not in this case. 760 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: In this case, you just had one team that was 761 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: far better than the other one. And I'm glad it 762 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: went that way, quite frankly, because I wasn't really interested 763 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: in seeing Michigan in the college football playoffs this year, 764 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: and so we don't have to worry about that now. 765 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. 766 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 2: I mean, and you know the other thing too, is 767 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: like the ramifications of Ohio State losing are also just 768 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 2: much less interesting. It's like, what's the taken to me? 769 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 2: All Right, Dad can't win the Oh wait, he just 770 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 2: won the national championship. So like it would have been 771 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 2: an interesting discourse. I just don't know that any of 772 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: us could have gotten that riled up by the fact 773 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,479 Speaker 2: that they lost that game. Hey, real quick, Vanderbilt takes 774 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 2: care of Tennessee I want to talk about that one 775 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 2: quick forty five twenty four Vandy incredible ten win season. 776 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 2: I think based on just how the other games broke 777 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 2: this week, I don't really see a pathway to the 778 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 2: playoff for them. Don't want to undersell what their season 779 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 2: was going ten to two. I'd also add this, I think, 780 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 2: I really think at this point, Diego Pavia at minimum 781 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 2: has to be in New York. You know, I was 782 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 2: thinking about it during the Ohio State game. Actually, listen, 783 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 2: Julian Saiyans having a great statistical season. You can't tell 784 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 2: me that he means more to his team than Diego Pavia, 785 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoza, maybe Jeremiah Love. Vandy gets the win, might 786 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 2: be a point sometime we got to talk about Joshipel 787 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 2: because I'm curious for your perspective. But Vandy gets that 788 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 2: win there. 789 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I think that they needed to polish off 790 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: the season with that win. They needed to beat the 791 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,479 Speaker 1: in state rival this season in Vanderbilt history. Yeah, Pavi, 792 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 1: I think, and I hope he does it end up 793 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 1: in New York. But just an awesome season. They're not 794 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,240 Speaker 1: gonna make the playoff, but boy, they came awfully close 795 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: and to win in Knoxville by three touchdowns and just 796 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: dominate the second half of that football game. What a 797 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: great year and clark Lee signs the extension. It's just 798 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: great time to be a Vanderbilt football fan, no question. 799 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 2: Very cool story emerging there. Tell you what, We'll come back. 800 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 2: We're gonna set up the playoff picture. It is crazy 801 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 2: after this week fourteen, heading into the conference championship games. 802 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 3: That's next. Fox Sports Tradio. 803 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 804 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 2: Welcome he to everybody, our two tours martin Fox Sports Radio. 805 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 2: We are broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios 806 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 2: here at midnight Eastern time. De Seger just got you 807 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 2: caught up on all the news and notes from a 808 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 2: busy day in college football. The most noteworthy recent result 809 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 2: Alabama survives the Iron Bowl twenty seven to twenty the 810 00:40:56,680 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 2: final score there. Alabama will play or or Jia in 811 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 2: the SEC title game. As much as things change in 812 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 2: the SEC, they stay the same. And with it, I 813 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 2: do think we all think that Alabama, even with a loss, 814 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,839 Speaker 2: would be in the college football playoff and so j Mart, 815 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 2: let's just do it. Let's go ahead and talk college 816 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 2: football playoff. There is one actually noteworthy game still going on. 817 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 2: It is Notre Dame, as de Sagre just told you 818 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 2: up twenty eight to three against Stanford. Certainly, if Notre 819 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 2: Dame loses this game one, it would be a very 820 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 2: interesting story. 821 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 3: But two, Notre Dame would be eliminated. 822 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 2: We're probably, for the sake of this argument, gonna assume 823 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 2: that that Notre Dame ends up winning. I'll tell you what, Mary, 824 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 2: I didn't tell you this. Get us some football music. 825 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 2: We're gonna talk some college football playoff. Who's in who's 826 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,320 Speaker 2: out of the college football playoff? 827 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 3: Love it, Mary? Thank you? 828 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 2: All right, j Bart, let's start. So the SEC Championship 829 00:41:55,480 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 2: game is set Georgia against Alabama. Georgia entering I had 830 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 2: eleven and one, of course, the only loss to the 831 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 2: Alabama Crimson Tide at home. 832 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 3: Georgia, by the way, does have. 833 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 2: Wins over Tennessee, over Texas, over Old Miss all ranked. 834 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,240 Speaker 2: I assume, and this can be quick if you agree, 835 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 2: it could be a simple yes or no Georgia regardless 836 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 2: of winner loss in the college football Playoff. 837 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: Correct, Absolutely, yeah, I had. Brian No asked me to 838 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 1: give my top two in terms of who can win 839 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 1: it all in the college football Playoff, And of course 840 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: the prerequist it was that they were going to be 841 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: in it. We did it for the NFL, both conferences, 842 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: and in college football. My number one was Georgia, My 843 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 1: number two was Ohio State. 844 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 3: Well, there you go. That pretty much tell you know. 845 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 2: I'll say this, and I think Kirby has actually talked 846 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,919 Speaker 2: about it, is that in this era, you know, it's 847 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 2: not about playing your best football in September October. 848 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 3: It's about playing it in November. 849 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 2: And they certainly feel like they are, especially with the 850 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 2: way that Texas finished things out on Friday night against 851 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 2: Texas A and M. For Georgia to have done with 852 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 2: they did just a few weeks ago. I'm with you, 853 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 2: Georgia is in. The only question is are they the 854 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 2: number one overall seed? Are they number two? We'll see 855 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 2: what happens there. Even with a loss at eleven and two, 856 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,280 Speaker 2: they'd be in. I think they'd be hosting a playoff 857 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 2: game if they lose, I don't think they'd fall past 858 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 2: I guess it would be the eight spot second team. 859 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 2: So Georgia is playing Alabama in the SEC Championship game. 860 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 3: Alabama is ten and two. 861 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 2: Overall, they have a couple of really good wins, over 862 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 2: one over Georgia. Only team to beat Georgia, they of 863 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 2: course beat the now ten and two Vanderbilt Commodores. Their 864 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 2: losses were to Oklahoma, which is obviously we'll talk about 865 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 2: in a second a good win. And they do have 866 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 2: the worst loss of probably anyone in the playoff picture, 867 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 2: and that is to Florida State in Week one. Is 868 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 2: there any scenario, j Mart where you see, if Alabama 869 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,879 Speaker 2: does not win this game, that they are not part 870 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 2: of the twelve team bracket. 871 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 1: No, I think that they are solidly in after winning 872 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,960 Speaker 1: the Iron Bowl. I'm not even sure if they got 873 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 1: blown out by Georgia that they would miss out. Maybe 874 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,840 Speaker 1: that would make it a little more interesting, but no, 875 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: I think I think at this stage they're safe. 876 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,880 Speaker 3: All right, really quickly. And this can be a simple question. 877 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 2: I we're putting Ohio State Indiana, both undefeated, both in 878 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 2: the Big SEDGIMS says, by the way, says, we're not talking. 879 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 3: I don't. 880 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 2: I haven't seen if there's a point spread yet. You 881 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,359 Speaker 2: think Indiana could Indiana could pull off the win? 882 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 3: Right? 883 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 2: Even if they're they probably won't be favored in this game. 884 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 2: I'm gonna look see real quick if there's a point 885 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 2: spread going forward. 886 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think so. I just I don't know, 887 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: like how hard are both those teams going at it? 888 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,839 Speaker 1: You know, it's considering what's coming afterwards. I don't know. 889 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think now that they're they're they're 890 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,399 Speaker 2: they'll both you know, they're gonna play hard. Ohio State, 891 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 2: by the way, is a five and a half point 892 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 2: favorite according to multiple sports books coming in. 893 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: That's probably fair, you know. 894 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 2: Jmart, that point is such a fascinating one. I we 895 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:01,759 Speaker 2: just talked about it with the Saga a few minutes ago. 896 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 2: To Saga brought up the point of, oh, yeah, these 897 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: conferences get paid a lot of money to play these 898 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 2: conference championship games. But you brought up the point a 899 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 2: few weeks ago of Georgia fans openly talking about not 900 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 2: wanting to be in an SEC championship game. You know, 901 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 2: I think for Indiana it's maybe I'll say this for 902 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 2: Ohio State. Remember, Ohio State hasn't been to a Big 903 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 2: Ten championship game since the COVID year of twenty twenty, 904 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 2: so I do think it means something to them but 905 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 2: I'm with you is I think there's got to be 906 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 2: a better way after a twelve game regular season, and 907 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 2: I'm not somebody that thinks we need to expand the 908 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 2: playoff further. 909 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 3: I'm almost to the point. 910 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: Where I'd rather get to sixteen teams and eliminate the 911 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 2: conference championship games. I just think they serve no purpose 912 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 2: at this point. Really fun game in Indie. Both teams 913 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 2: are in, and unfortunately it's kind of like Georgia last 914 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 2: year where they lost Carson back to injury. I don't 915 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 2: know that there's a lot of positive that can come out. 916 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 3: Of these games. 917 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 2: I'll add this too, I think there's a possibility that 918 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 2: even the loser ends up in the top four with 919 00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 2: a first round by So now it's just the seman 920 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,320 Speaker 2: antics of where you are in the bracket. 921 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 3: I could keep going. 922 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. 923 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like both of those teams are in, 924 00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 2: all right. ACC championship game is DREK. It is Virginia 925 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 2: versus Duke. The winner is in, loser is out. We 926 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 2: don't need to go there. I want to ask you 927 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: Texas Tech versus BYU in the Big twelve championship game. 928 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 2: Fascinating matchup, and I'll tell you why. Both teams are 929 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 2: ranked in the top twelve. Now, as de Seger has 930 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 2: pointed out and pointed out last week, BYU with their 931 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,320 Speaker 2: ranking not currently in the bracket, if they were. 932 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 3: To lose this game, yeah, they have to win. That's 933 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:41,759 Speaker 3: what I was gonna ask. 934 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 2: So Texas Tech, by the way, is an eleven and 935 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 2: a half point favorite coming into this game. Now, part 936 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 2: of it is these two teams played just a few 937 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 2: weeks ago in Lubbock. Texas Tech did beat them twenty 938 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 2: nine to seven in this game. So, first of all, 939 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 2: I'll ask you this, because again we're probably not gonna 940 00:46:58,520 --> 00:46:59,800 Speaker 2: have time to preview. 941 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 3: All of these games games. 942 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 2: Do you think BYU has a chance or do you 943 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,360 Speaker 2: think this is just a kind of a bad matchup 944 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:05,720 Speaker 2: for them in this game. 945 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 1: I tend to think the latter. They have to win this. 946 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 1: I think Texas Tech's in either way. But at the 947 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 1: same time, I just I don't think they could match 948 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: up with them, So I think Texas Tech will blow 949 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: them out again. 950 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a tough matchup. First of all, BYU has 951 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,600 Speaker 2: this fun little habit even though they are eleven and 952 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 2: one of basically falling down in every game that they play, 953 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 2: including today or Saturday. BYU and their season finale fell 954 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 2: down fourteen to nothing to UCF, which finished the season 955 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,760 Speaker 2: seven to five. BYU proceeded to win the game forty 956 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 2: one to twenty one. So you can do some quick 957 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,320 Speaker 2: math a forty one to seven run to end the game. 958 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 2: I'm with you. I do think BYU probably needs to 959 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,839 Speaker 2: win this game just because of how everything else has 960 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 2: shaken out. I'll say this though, I do think they 961 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 2: have they if things had gone a little bit different, 962 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 2: like if in Oklahoma had lost to Miami, had lost 963 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 2: to whatever. And I know Miami's ranked behind them right now, 964 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 2: but I think they have a pretty strong resume. Eleven 965 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 2: to one, only lost to a top five team, best 966 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 2: win over thirteenth ranked I guess it's fourteenth ranked now Utah. 967 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 2: They also beat Arizona, which is a ranked team. I 968 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 2: just I think if you lose to Texas Tech twice, 969 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 2: given all these other teams, I think it makes it 970 00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 2: really hard. 971 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this though, really quick. 972 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 2: You mentioned you think Texas Tech is in regardless even 973 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:29,919 Speaker 2: if they were to lose this game. 974 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 1: Do I think Texas Tech is in? Yes? 975 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 2: Yes, I do okay, Texas. So Texas Tech would be 976 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,399 Speaker 2: eleven and two. They're currently ranked fifth, and I think 977 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 2: it goes back to the conversation that happened last year. 978 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,959 Speaker 2: If you remember, anybody that was in the field heading 979 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,960 Speaker 2: into the conference championship game was not punished, So I 980 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 2: would assume it would be the same for Texas Tech. 981 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 3: I'm with you. We'll call Texas Tech the winner. 982 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: There. 983 00:48:55,600 --> 00:49:00,720 Speaker 2: That means, right now we have six spots automatically right now, Georgia, Bama, 984 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 2: Ohio State, Indiana, the four teams in the SEC Big 985 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 2: Ten title games, uh, the ACC champ Texas Tech, and 986 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 2: we're gonna put them in as the Big twelve champs. 987 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 2: Certainly if BYU wins, they are in, and that adds 988 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:16,919 Speaker 2: another wrinkle to it. But again, eleven and a half 989 00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,440 Speaker 2: point favorite Texas Tech, I think that means to me 990 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 2: that Vegas feels pretty comfortable they're gonna win really quick. 991 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 2: G five, we'll just slot into lane which we'll play 992 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:28,720 Speaker 2: for an AAC American title. But so that's seven spots 993 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 2: right there. So we have seven spots, and that includes 994 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 2: the losers of the SEC and Big Ten title games. 995 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 2: Really quickly, let's just run through these really quick Oregon 996 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,880 Speaker 2: eleven and one, they're in right, Yes, okay. 997 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna beating Washington assured that. 998 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 2: Yes, Oregon eleven and one. You know, they don't have 999 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 2: that great win on the resume, but let's give them credit. 1000 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 2: You know, down the stretch they finish it. They beat 1001 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 2: a USC team that finished the regular season nine to three. 1002 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,920 Speaker 2: USC will finish as a top fifteen team when it's 1003 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 2: all said and done. They beat Iowa, they beat Washington, 1004 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 2: which entered the day quietly at eight and three going 1005 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 2: for a nine win season. Oregon at eleven and one 1006 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 2: to meet is unequivocally in I mean Texas A and 1007 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 2: M eleven and one, the signature win at Notre Dame. 1008 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: They did lose the season finale, definitely in right. 1009 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 1: Yes, all right, I don't think there's any question about that. 1010 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 3: I agree. 1011 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 2: The only thing I will say I saw A and 1012 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 2: M fans disappointed last night, understandably talking about, well we 1013 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 2: still get to host a playoff game. 1014 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 3: I think that's actually a little bit more up in 1015 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 3: the air. 1016 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I could see that. I could definitely see them 1017 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 1: having to go on the road now, because again you 1018 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 1: start looking at their schedule and who they were able 1019 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 1: to dodge. I think that that might hurt them a 1020 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:51,280 Speaker 1: little bit when it gets to the seedings. 1021 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:53,400 Speaker 3: Don't disagree. 1022 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 2: Probably you would think the SEC and Big Ten runners 1023 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 2: up at minimum would get the home games. You'd probably 1024 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 2: think Oregon would too. Anyway, we can figure all that 1025 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 2: out later. Ole Miss eleven and one don't know who's 1026 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 2: going to be coaching them. I think I actually know 1027 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 2: who will not be coaching them. Yeah, as the reports 1028 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 2: are that lane Kiffin is set the you know the 1029 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 2: latest for people just joining us, LSU is set to 1030 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 2: send two planes to Oxford on Sunday morning to pick 1031 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,719 Speaker 2: up lane Kiffin. So it does not look like lane 1032 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 2: Kiffin will be coaching LS or Ole Miss in the 1033 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 2: College Football Playoff. 1034 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 3: But at eleven and one, Old misses. 1035 00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 1: In yes, they're in the question. I think that the 1036 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 1: bigger question is are they going to get dropped to 1037 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: where they have to go on the road where they're 1038 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 1: not going to be in a position to host a 1039 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 1: playoff game, because that is something that the committee takes 1040 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,919 Speaker 1: into consideration, if coaches and or players, and of course 1041 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 1: you know you've seen that with Jordan Travis and different 1042 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,399 Speaker 1: things through the years. Here you have a coach that's 1043 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:56,439 Speaker 1: very much responsible for what Ole Miss has done this year, 1044 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: leaving that could put them in a spot. I do 1045 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: think that they are in, but I think that they 1046 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: are going to get faded a bit. 1047 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 2: One hundred percent, and I think it's going to be 1048 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 2: fascinating to see how it all plays out here over 1049 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,239 Speaker 2: the coming hours and weeks. And I just think it's 1050 00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 2: fascinating to see again what the committee does with ole 1051 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 2: Miss One team that Old Miss did beat Oklahoma. Yeah, 1052 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 2: we're positive they're in. They're sitting in the eighth spot 1053 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 2: right now, one spot ahead of Notre Dame one, certainly 1054 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 2: a couple spots ahead of Miami Oklahoma, which by the way, 1055 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 2: we didn't even talk about an hour one almost lost 1056 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 2: to LSU. 1057 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 3: But Oklahoma we assume is in. 1058 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 1: Right. Yeah, I think a two lost team in the 1059 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: SEC is the to be Yeah, is going to exactly 1060 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 1: is going to be in. I don't think they're that 1061 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: great because I just don't trust the offense, because I mean, 1062 00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 1: I have eyes. But at the same time, they know 1063 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 1: they've beaten who is on their schedule, and some of 1064 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 1: those have been pretty impressive wins. I think Notre Dame 1065 00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 1: is a better team than them, and there are some 1066 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,839 Speaker 1: teams that will not get in that I think on 1067 00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,959 Speaker 1: any given day could beat them. But I just don't. 1068 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,359 Speaker 1: I don't see a two loss SEC team being left 1069 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:02,799 Speaker 1: out of this. 1070 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:06,240 Speaker 2: All right, Well, that brings us to the final spot. 1071 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 2: I'll reset here really quick. We have eleven spots that 1072 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,920 Speaker 2: I actually agree with you on on all of them, 1073 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 2: and so I'll just reset them really quick. Georgia and 1074 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 2: Bama play for an SEC title. I think both teams 1075 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 2: are in. Even if Bama Law loses, that would be 1076 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,840 Speaker 2: their third loss. I still think they get in Ohio 1077 00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,280 Speaker 2: State and Indiana and the Big Ten. They're both getting 1078 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,279 Speaker 2: in an ACC champ out of the drek that is 1079 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 2: that league for people scoring at home. Virginia will play 1080 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 2: Duke seven and five Duke for an ACC title. 1081 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 3: I'm not being sarcastic. 1082 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 2: That is actually the matchup Texas Tech versus BYU. For 1083 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,440 Speaker 2: the sake of this argument, we have Texas Tech, which 1084 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 2: is an eleven point favorite eleven and a half point 1085 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 2: favorite next Saturday, winning that game, and then we have 1086 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,480 Speaker 2: a group of five champ Tulane winning that game as well. 1087 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:56,360 Speaker 2: So that's seven teams. We also have not playing next Saturday, 1088 00:53:56,360 --> 00:54:00,439 Speaker 2: but in right now Oregon, Texas A and m Ole 1089 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 2: Miss Oklahoma. That is eleven teams right now. That means, 1090 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 2: by my calculation, there is one spot for what I 1091 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:13,879 Speaker 2: would deem to be five teams that range from very 1092 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 2: likely to extremely unlikely. But I will lay out all 1093 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 2: five and I'll let you decide what you think is 1094 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,760 Speaker 2: the most most interesting. Okay, let's lay out those five. 1095 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:24,440 Speaker 2: Let's do it. 1096 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:27,240 Speaker 3: The five teams. 1097 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 2: No, I'm including Notre Dame, which is currently up twenty 1098 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,799 Speaker 2: eight to three at the half against Stanford, or right 1099 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 2: around the half, it's a twenty three seconds left. I'm 1100 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 2: assuming a Notre Dame win to finish the regular season 1101 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 2: at ten and two. That also includes a Miami team 1102 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 2: that is ten and two that has the head to 1103 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 2: head win over Notre Dame. It also has a couple 1104 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 2: of not great losses. Both of the Miami losses, now 1105 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 2: with SMU losing on Saturday, will be too unranked opponents. 1106 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 2: The two losses were to Louisville, which finished the regular 1107 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 2: season at eight and four today and then also SMU, 1108 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 2: which finished today and four. I think both of them 1109 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:14,279 Speaker 2: are unranked, So Notre Dame ten and two, Miami ten 1110 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 2: and two had to head win two unranked losses. The 1111 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:22,440 Speaker 2: other three that I think will be discussion points, although 1112 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's gonna hold up. I just 1113 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,840 Speaker 2: don't think there's enough spots. One you already told me 1114 00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 2: you don't believe we'll get in. That would be an 1115 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 2: eleven and two BYU Big twelve champ. Also two other 1116 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 2: teams Vandy at ten and two, and then I will 1117 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 2: also just for the sake because it will be a 1118 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 2: talking point. 1119 00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 3: I can promise I hear. 1120 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 1: It comes, let's do it. Bring it on. 1121 00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 2: Steve Sarksha says it will be the world's greatest injustice 1122 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 2: ever if a nine in three Texas is not in 1123 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 2: the college football Playoff. For the sense we're just laying 1124 00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 2: all the particulars out there, his argument is, certainly if 1125 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 2: they did not, if they had not scheduled Ohio State, 1126 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 2: they would be sitting at ten and two. Now I 1127 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 2: don't think you can equate that, but let's for the 1128 00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 2: sake of argument. They also have a terrible loss to 1129 00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 2: a four and eight Florida team. 1130 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 1: Horrible loss. 1131 00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 2: So those are the five that I think will to 1132 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 2: a degree be in the conversation, Miami Notre Dame by 1133 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 2: you if they lose the conference championship game. Now, the 1134 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 2: interesting thing is you've said you think Texas Tech is in. 1135 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, like, b WHYU wins that twelve spots over? I think, oh, 1136 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:34,839 Speaker 1: that's that's my opinion. I think Texas Tech gets in 1137 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 1: over the rest of them. 1138 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,879 Speaker 2: Very interesting, all right, So Miami Notre Dame BYU two 1139 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 2: Lossvandy three lost Texas. 1140 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna give you the floor. You could take 1141 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:44,839 Speaker 3: it wherever you want. 1142 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 1: My men, So of the teams, I think No Dame 1143 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,360 Speaker 1: is the best, but I also think results have to 1144 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: matter and games are not played hypothetically. The argument, and 1145 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 1: to his credit, Brian no Diehard Notre Dame guy born 1146 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: and raised in South Bend, said that he's tired of 1147 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,840 Speaker 1: the argument that, well, if they played right now, Notre 1148 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:13,239 Speaker 1: Dame would beat Miami. Yeah, but here's the problem. They 1149 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: did play. It doesn't really matter what you think might 1150 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 1: happen today because something already happened this season. That is 1151 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: a touchstone, That is a point that we can go 1152 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: back to and actually address. So here would be my 1153 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:32,440 Speaker 1: argument to me, Texas is out three losses. The Florida loss. 1154 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:36,640 Speaker 1: In particular, they're done everybody else that you want to 1155 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 1: mention in that spot if BYU loses again, even if 1156 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 1: both their losses are to Texas Tech, I don't think 1157 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: that's a strong enough resume outside of that to get 1158 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 1: them in. I think, just intellectually, Miami should be in 1159 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 1: over Notre Dame. I do not, like my heart wants 1160 00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 1: to see Notre Dame because I think they're the better 1161 00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 1: football team. I think they have a better chance to 1162 00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 1: win a champceampion shipped than does Miami. I think they 1163 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:06,000 Speaker 1: are better. But that can't matter because games are played 1164 00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 1: that we spend a lot of time on Saturday nights 1165 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: talking about for a few months that game was played. 1166 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 1: We can't pretend like it was not. When they have 1167 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:17,360 Speaker 1: the same exact record at the end and there's a 1168 00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 1: head to head win for one team over the other, 1169 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's ridiculous to actually put 1170 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:26,280 Speaker 1: Notre Dame in over Miami. So I would argue for Miami, 1171 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 1: even though I do not think that's how it would go. 1172 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:30,919 Speaker 2: All right, So a couple interesting things on this one. 1173 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 2: You know, by the way, Notre Dame now up thirty 1174 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,240 Speaker 2: five to three. As we head to halftime, they scored 1175 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 2: another great man. 1176 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: Their offense is incredible. 1177 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 3: No, you know, but listen a couple of things. 1178 00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 2: One I do think it's it's worth noting is that 1179 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 2: this week Miami did move up in the rankings. 1180 00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 3: Let's see here. 1181 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 2: They moved from I want to make sure I have 1182 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 2: this right from eighteenth. Oh no, no, I think I 1183 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 2: did this wrong anyway. Bottom line is they moved up 1184 00:58:58,720 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 2: in the rankings. 1185 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:00,640 Speaker 3: Let me see. I'll do it really quick, I can. 1186 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 3: I can do this off the top. 1187 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:02,040 Speaker 1: Of my head. 1188 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 3: Here. 1189 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:07,280 Speaker 2: So they moved from h no, they moved they oh, 1190 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 2: they moved them from thirteen to twelfth. 1191 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:11,960 Speaker 1: They also moved Notre Dame up one. Yes. 1192 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:15,800 Speaker 2: The one thing that the committee did say during this, 1193 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 2: during their thing, is that Miami is now close enough 1194 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 2: to Notre Dame in the actual rankings, where they kind of, 1195 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 2: you know, they their argument is, they compare groups of 1196 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 2: teams more than individual resumes, and so now they've conveniently 1197 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 2: put Miami in a position to group them. They're in 1198 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 2: a position to compare them head to head with Notre Dame. 1199 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 2: And so that's really boring semantics to just say, very 1200 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 2: simply this BYU is probably going to lose. Alabama Independent 1201 00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 2: is going to win, win or lose. So basically BYU 1202 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 2: and Alabama are going to get a result that is 1203 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 2: going to impact their positioning. All while Notre Dame and 1204 00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 2: Miami are no going to be playing. BYU and Alabama 1205 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 2: are the two teams in the standings that separate Notre 1206 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:10,120 Speaker 2: Dame in Miami. So the bottom line is that basically 1207 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 2: we will be able to compare them in the standings. 1208 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 2: The Committee has positioned it where they're going to be 1209 01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 2: ranked right next to each other in the final standings, 1210 01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 2: and then at that point you can flip it. And 1211 01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 2: so that is a very long winded way of me 1212 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 2: saying for all the criticisms of the committee, I actually 1213 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 2: think they usually get things right, and I think they 1214 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 2: actually usually put brands brand bias aside, like last year 1215 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 2: when everybody wanted Alabama and they put in an SMU 1216 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,560 Speaker 2: in the final spot, and I think they're going to 1217 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 2: eventually put. 1218 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 3: In Miami over Notre Dame. 1219 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 2: Miami season done at ten and two. Notre Dame we 1220 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 2: assume is going to win as they're up thirty five 1221 01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 2: to three, not much time left, j Mart, But do 1222 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,200 Speaker 2: you have any final thoughts, because I do agree with you. 1223 01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 2: I think now that both teams have gone ten and two, 1224 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 2: they're going to be in a position where they're ranked 1225 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 2: side by side, and it will be easy for the 1226 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 2: committee to move Miami ahead of Notre Dame. 1227 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. Like again, I would rather see a playoff with 1228 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 1: Notre Dame than Miami based on the football that I 1229 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 1: have seen, But that's not how you do this. The 1230 01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 1: right decision is for Miami to go in over Notre Dame, 1231 01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 1: and that's going to make a lot of people upset. 1232 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: But this thing has to be objective, and it has 1233 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 1: to be well as objective as it can be in 1234 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:26,400 Speaker 1: this case, and when you have an identical record but 1235 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 1: ahead to head win, I just don't see how you 1236 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 1: put the other team in. 1237 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:31,959 Speaker 2: We will see what happens. I do think I agree 1238 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 2: with you, j mart. I think we're down to one 1239 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 2: spot for about technically five teams, but I don't think 1240 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:40,160 Speaker 2: about three of them really have a leg to stand on. 1241 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:44,640 Speaker 2: One late note in college football, Jeff Duncan out of 1242 01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:47,959 Speaker 2: New Orleans the Times Picky Unit is reporting to Lane 1243 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 2: coach John summer All. After his win tonight, said he 1244 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 2: will meet with his family and discuss his future. He said, quote, 1245 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 2: I've had opportunities presented, but that he wants to coach 1246 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 2: and plans to coach the team in the conference championship 1247 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:03,760 Speaker 2: game next week. So John Sommerral will coach Tulane in 1248 01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 2: the American Championship Game. He is the heavy favorite to 1249 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:09,919 Speaker 2: get the Florida job now that Lane Kiffin is out. 1250 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 2: And if you're just joining us, there are reports that 1251 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 2: there will be planes on the ground in Oxford on 1252 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 2: Sunday morning to pick up Lane Kiffin and make him 1253 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 2: the LSU head coach.

They're up now 1275 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 6: one twelve, one ten with two seconds to go in La. 1276 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:37,840 Speaker 6: But Cooper Flag. According to Mark Stein, longtime NBA writer 1277 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 6: who covers Dallas these days, that Flag, not quite nineteen 1278 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:44,680 Speaker 6: years old, became the second youngest player in NBA history 1279 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,400 Speaker 6: to have a thirty point game, behind only Lebron James, 1280 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:51,479 Speaker 6: who was about ten days younger, and Flag, one night ago, 1281 01:03:51,560 --> 01:03:54,600 Speaker 6: became the youngest to have ten assists or more in 1282 01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:58,720 Speaker 6: an NBA game. It is now one fourteen, one ten Dallas, 1283 01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:02,280 Speaker 6: and that's now a final. Flag finishes with thirty five points. 1284 01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:05,760 Speaker 6: It's just gone final. In college football, UNLV is ten 1285 01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:08,520 Speaker 6: and two after winning at Nevada and the cold forty 1286 01:04:08,560 --> 01:04:10,600 Speaker 6: two to seventeen neither way. 1287 01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 3: Yes, great season from Dan Mullen. 1288 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 2: Like we don't talk about schools like that a lot, 1289 01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:20,800 Speaker 2: but you know, the Dan Mullen Florida divorce, it's looking 1290 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 2: like a lot less was Dan Mullen's to blame than 1291 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:26,280 Speaker 2: maybe he was given credit for at the time. So 1292 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 2: now you know, we're not gonna like do a segment 1293 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:29,520 Speaker 2: on it. But I just thought it was a worth 1294 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 2: acknowledging nice season. 1295 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:33,200 Speaker 6: Because the Gators have had no other divorces before or. 1296 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 2: Well, No, what I'm saying is I mean he was 1297 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 2: pretty good for them. Yeah, and then he had a 1298 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 2: bad year and they canned them and he was out. 1299 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:44,560 Speaker 2: He's back in doing well and Florida's back in the 1300 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:45,040 Speaker 2: coaching mark. 1301 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying. 1302 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 6: And then you think the ACC has some problems with 1303 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 6: some ties in who's going to the conference title game. 1304 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:51,360 Speaker 1: We'll get to the. 1305 01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 6: Mountain West situation, which includes UNLV in just a few 1306 01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:58,840 Speaker 6: minutes in about ten to fifteen, but a TV. There 1307 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,640 Speaker 6: are three late game games in college football. Number nine, 1308 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 6: Notre Dame leads at Stanford, thirty five to three Stanford, 1309 01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 6: with only about fifty yards passing and under forty yards 1310 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:10,960 Speaker 6: rushing in the first half. Fresno State leads twenty one 1311 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 6: to seven at San Jose State early third and in 1312 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,200 Speaker 6: the final seconds before halftime the late game at Hawaii 1313 01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:19,560 Speaker 6: as the home team up twenty to seven over Wyoming. 1314 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 6: Now Boston College was one to ten this year, but 1315 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 6: got an easy win at Syracuse Today thirty four to twelve. 1316 01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 6: Duke started the day six and five, and they're headed 1317 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:33,320 Speaker 6: to the ACC Championship game. Forty nine thirty two their 1318 01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 6: final over wake Forest. Eighteenth rank Virginia beat Virginia Tech 1319 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 6: twenty seven to seven.

So Oregon State 1337 01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,240 Speaker 6: finishes two and ten, And can I mention that Washington 1338 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:42,960 Speaker 6: State football with thirty two points that's just about the 1339 01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 6: equal of Washington State women's hoops tonight because the Cougars 1340 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 6: lost their game to fifth ranked LSU one twelve to 1341 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 6: thirty five.

Man women's college basketball, 1344 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 1: it's like one hundred point victories. 1345 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:07,760 Speaker 6: Yes, absolutely, and LSU now has a record eight straight 1346 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 6: one hundred point games after scoring the one to twelve 1347 01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:14,280 Speaker 6: in the Virgin Islands tonight.

Probably not great? 1364 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 1: Is that worse? I mean you finished last, also finishing 1365 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,720 Speaker 1: the conference? Yeah, yeah, exactly, That's what I'm saying. Like, 1366 01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if you if there's a glass half full, 1367 01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 1: glass half empty portion or you just think, man, we 1368 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 1: stake there's only one other team in this thing and 1369 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 1: we still couldn't win it. 1370 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:12,800 Speaker 3: I think they got bigger issues than trying to figure 1371 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 3: out Yeah, no, I would agree with Yes, Oregon State 1372 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:19,519 Speaker 3: needs oh Oregon State hired a new coach Jim JaMarcus Sheppard, 1373 01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 3: the wide receivers coach Lane Kiffin. 1374 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:25,160 Speaker 2: Get what if the given plot twist? She's always at 1375 01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:28,400 Speaker 2: a soft spot for Corvallis Oregon. I'll tell you a 1376 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,920 Speaker 2: quick side story. I had an it's not it's not 1377 01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:35,200 Speaker 2: worth it, but I had a buddy who coached coaching 1378 01:08:35,280 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 2: the old Pac twelve and let's just say he did 1379 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 2: not have a lot of nice things to say about 1380 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:42,880 Speaker 2: Corvallis Oregon. So anyway, uh, j mart, let's you know, 1381 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 2: we're probably not gonna have a ton of time to 1382 01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:47,920 Speaker 2: talk NFL a hour three With all this college football stuff. 1383 01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,679 Speaker 2: It seems as though, let's there's like four different times 1384 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:55,879 Speaker 2: Thursday was a not only a great day of football, 1385 01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:59,000 Speaker 2: but a consequential day of football. Same with Friday's Black 1386 01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 2: Friday game. As the Bears beat the Eagles, I'll tell 1387 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 2: you what. I'm just gonna give it to you and 1388 01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:05,719 Speaker 2: we'll save the rest of the conversations for hour three. 1389 01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 2: The most interesting result for one team on Thursday or 1390 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:15,000 Speaker 2: Friday was and we'll discuss that for the next few minutes. 1391 01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:19,679 Speaker 1: Man, I gotta pick one. 1392 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:22,800 Speaker 2: I mean, we only got four minutes until we got 1393 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:24,320 Speaker 2: to get back to to Sega for the extra I'm 1394 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,800 Speaker 2: gonna if you want to save a. 1395 01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 3: Good conversation for the last hour, we can. If you 1396 01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:31,720 Speaker 3: wanna just you know, we can. 1397 01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:33,720 Speaker 1: All right. Well, I'm just gonna pick one because I 1398 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:34,960 Speaker 1: know we'll get to other ones. 1399 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:39,240 Speaker 3: Sure, Baltimore, hmm, I'm glad you picked that one because 1400 01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:41,280 Speaker 3: I don't have a ton to say other than that. 1401 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: I think that, yeah, that might not. I think I've 1402 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:45,360 Speaker 1: got more to say on other stuff. But I will 1403 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 1: say this. You get Burrow coming back, all right, But 1404 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:50,559 Speaker 1: it's less about him coming back and more about the 1405 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,760 Speaker 1: fact that Cincinnati is fielding one of the worst defenses 1406 01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:57,200 Speaker 1: in the history of the National Football League and Baltimore 1407 01:09:57,280 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: still can't do anything. Sure, I understand Lamar is not right. 1408 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:04,799 Speaker 1: Like I understand there's some injuries there. He's not fully healthy, 1409 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 1: that he doesn't need to be playing because all he's 1410 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 1: doing is limping back. He's not able to do anything. 1411 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,920 Speaker 1: He's not himself in any way. He says, this is 1412 01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:17,639 Speaker 1: not the worst stretch of his career. I beg to differ. 1413 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,479 Speaker 1: This is bad. This is a team both of us 1414 01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 1: had in the Super Bowl, no doubt, and every time 1415 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:27,040 Speaker 1: I watched him, I'm like, man, they shouldn't even make 1416 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs. They may still because somebody has to win 1417 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:32,880 Speaker 1: that division and you're seeing teams leaking oil all around them. 1418 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:35,360 Speaker 1: And Cincinnati was three and eight by the time Burrow 1419 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 1: came back, and they're not going to run the table. 1420 01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:41,720 Speaker 1: But Baltimore is not able to Their offensive line is 1421 01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 1: not very good. Lamar has not been accurate. He certainly 1422 01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:48,880 Speaker 1: is hampered by something. Is hamstring his knee, Something's going 1423 01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:52,720 Speaker 1: wrong there. Their defense is not very good. Like, this 1424 01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:56,759 Speaker 1: is a team. This team has fallen completely off a cliff. 1425 01:10:56,800 --> 01:11:00,559 Speaker 1: This is a wasted year for the Baltimore Ravens. My eyes, 1426 01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,200 Speaker 1: I do not see us like watching them get hot 1427 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:05,439 Speaker 1: and end up in the super Bowl. This this looks 1428 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,720 Speaker 1: like a complete flop in twenty twenty five. 1429 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think the disappointing thing is the division 1430 01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 2: is just so there for the take. Yes, you know 1431 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:17,879 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh has lost four of six. They play Buffalo on Sunday, 1432 01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 2: and so I bring it up because if you win 1433 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:23,479 Speaker 2: that game, and by the way, you're playing Cincinnati at home. 1434 01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:25,800 Speaker 2: We know Joe Burrow is special. We also know he's 1435 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:28,519 Speaker 2: coming off two months where he has not played. If 1436 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 2: you just win that game, you're seven and five the Steelers. 1437 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:35,919 Speaker 2: If they lose to Buffalo, you're in first place alone 1438 01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,719 Speaker 2: in the standings going into the final stretch of the season. 1439 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 2: Now you're Baltimore one. We'll see what happens with Pittsburgh. 1440 01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:45,800 Speaker 2: But all of a sudden, this gives Cincinnati life. And 1441 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,639 Speaker 2: you know, they obviously did a big, you know, production 1442 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 2: on why Joe Burrow decided to come back so late 1443 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:54,880 Speaker 2: in the year. It's because with the way Pittsburgh's playing, 1444 01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:57,400 Speaker 2: the way Baltimore is playing, all of a sudden, Cincinnati 1445 01:11:57,479 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 2: is not out of the mix. They were three at 1446 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:01,960 Speaker 2: eight coming in there, now four and eight going into 1447 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 2: this back half of the season. But I just bring 1448 01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:07,640 Speaker 2: it up because you look at Baltimore still have Pittsburgh, 1449 01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:11,800 Speaker 2: still have the return game at Cincinnati, plus the Patriots, 1450 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,240 Speaker 2: plus the Packers, plus two games against the Steelers. So 1451 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 2: I just bring it up because if you win this game, 1452 01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:22,719 Speaker 2: it just changes everything. And now, you know, forget wasted season. 1453 01:12:22,920 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 2: I just think they're just not gonna win it. They 1454 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,880 Speaker 2: have too many good teams at a time went. Oh, 1455 01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:31,800 Speaker 2: by the way, the final three for Cincinnati are the Dolphins, 1456 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,479 Speaker 2: the Cardinals, and the Browns, and obviously the Steelers right 1457 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:37,200 Speaker 2: now you know a little bit of an advantageous stretch 1458 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 2: as well, where they have two against the Ravens, the Dolphins, 1459 01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:42,080 Speaker 2: and the Browns as well. And so I could go 1460 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:44,080 Speaker 2: on and on. I don't know if anything final to 1461 01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,960 Speaker 2: say on Baltimore, but you win this game, you're in 1462 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:50,040 Speaker 2: first place in the division, maybe by yourself by the 1463 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:54,040 Speaker 2: end of Sunday. Now you gotta hope for a Pittsburgh loss. 1464 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:57,720 Speaker 2: And even then, Cincinnati's on your heels, were at home, 1465 01:12:57,760 --> 01:13:00,000 Speaker 2: you could have pretty much pretty much put them out 1466 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:02,880 Speaker 2: of their misery before things even started, if you'd just 1467 01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:04,080 Speaker 2: taken care business Thursday night. 1468 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:06,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I thought it was a perfect one 1469 01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:08,519 Speaker 1: just to have a couple of minutes on because I 1470 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 1: think there's more meat on the bone on some of 1471 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 1: these others. But yeah, like it was there for the taking. 1472 01:13:12,560 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 1: And it's an AFC that quite frankly, you look at it, 1473 01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:17,559 Speaker 1: it's just like there's no Juggernauts sitting here in this 1474 01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:20,200 Speaker 1: conference right now. There's just not not in based on 1475 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 1: what we've seen on the field, there are flaws in 1476 01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 1: every single team and from week to week. I don't 1477 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:28,439 Speaker 1: know who you can trust. Eventually, somebody is going to 1478 01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:31,360 Speaker 1: come out of that conference.

As we do 1502 01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:43,479 Speaker 2: every week, let's get over the news desk to Sega 1503 01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 2: with his extended update. 1504 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:48,160 Speaker 6: Guys, I have seen a stat that in Power Conference 1505 01:14:48,360 --> 01:14:51,439 Speaker 6: teams football, that it's happened five times where a team 1506 01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:54,240 Speaker 6: had at least five losses in the season and still 1507 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 6: made their conference championship game. Three of those five occasions 1508 01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:01,439 Speaker 6: it happened in the ACC. Yeah, Duke, which started today 1509 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:04,000 Speaker 6: six and five, is going to the title game next 1510 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:07,800 Speaker 6: weekend against Virginia. I'm not the first to point this out, 1511 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:10,160 Speaker 6: but you know it was a few scant weeks ago 1512 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:13,880 Speaker 6: that one Connecticut team did beat Duke, I'm very aware, 1513 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:17,200 Speaker 6: and did win at Boston College. So maybe uh Yukon 1514 01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:19,800 Speaker 6: in the ACC title game. Maybe the coach can ask 1515 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:22,040 Speaker 6: to stick around. I don't know you can work that out, 1516 01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:22,679 Speaker 6: as you coach. 1517 01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:25,240 Speaker 2: Weeks ago, Yukon had more wins in the ACC than 1518 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 2: Florida State did this year. I think Florida State has 1519 01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:29,280 Speaker 2: since tied us in the standing. 1520 01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:32,160 Speaker 6: I saw a stat that the list of teams to 1521 01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 6: be winless on the road in the last two seasons 1522 01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:37,720 Speaker 6: in all of FBS, there's u Mass Okay, I can 1523 01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:40,800 Speaker 6: see that. Perdue the last couple of years. Florida State 1524 01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:43,720 Speaker 6: is zero to nine on the road the last two seasons. 1525 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,599 Speaker 6: If you're Bills coming back though, yes he is, Well, 1526 01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:48,800 Speaker 6: that was talk about. That would have been a heavy pant. 1527 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 6: Wasn't that over fifty mil? If they actually would have 1528 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:55,599 Speaker 6: eaten fewest wins against FBS opponents the past two seasons 1529 01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:58,400 Speaker 6: by Power conference team, Perdue only has won the last 1530 01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 6: two years. Oklahoma State only a couple, Mississippi State and 1531 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:06,040 Speaker 6: Florida State each only five for the last two years combined. Well, 1532 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 6: we mentioned the ACC with seemingly everybody finishing six and two, 1533 01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:12,920 Speaker 6: and I did see a stat that if you look 1534 01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:16,639 Speaker 6: at the top six of the ACC standings, everybody's beaten 1535 01:16:17,080 --> 01:16:20,439 Speaker 6: everybody else at least once except for Duke. But Duke 1536 01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:23,959 Speaker 6: Quinn's their tiebreakers, go figure and is going to Charlotte 1537 01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:24,720 Speaker 6: for the title game. 1538 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 2: The tiebreaker was how toughly did you play Yukon? You 1539 01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 2: played them pretty tough. Okay, you're in that's right. 1540 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:32,240 Speaker 6: That was a thirty seven to thirty four. 1541 01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:33,839 Speaker 1: Game it was for the Huskies. 1542 01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:37,719 Speaker 6: A few weeks ago, the Mountain West announced that Sunday morning, 1543 01:16:38,439 --> 01:16:42,839 Speaker 6: they will determine their two participants for the conference title 1544 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:48,840 Speaker 6: game by a composite average of computer metrics. What UNLV 1545 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:53,839 Speaker 6: finishes six and two, San Diego State lost in double overtime, 1546 01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:58,200 Speaker 6: Yesterday finishes six and two, Boise State on a late touchdown. 1547 01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:01,800 Speaker 6: One Yesterday twenty five, twenty four, they finished six and 1548 01:17:01,840 --> 01:17:05,920 Speaker 6: two New Mexico six and two. So you know, computer 1549 01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:07,800 Speaker 6: stuff that always works out so well. 1550 01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:11,040 Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin will make the announcement eda le right after 1551 01:17:11,080 --> 01:17:11,599 Speaker 3: his team meet. 1552 01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:13,960 Speaker 6: Do we not recall about twenty years ago when Pete 1553 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:17,360 Speaker 6: Carroll's USC team was ranked number one in both polls 1554 01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 6: and the computers instead said Oklahoma and LSU to the 1555 01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:22,400 Speaker 6: PCs title game. 1556 01:17:22,680 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 2: And that is, by the way, why any talk of 1557 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:27,599 Speaker 2: eliminating a human committee is the stupidest thing. 1558 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:28,160 Speaker 3: I've ever heard. 1559 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 6: That is correct. 1560 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:30,759 Speaker 2: All people need to do is go back and remember 1561 01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:32,840 Speaker 2: how much we hated the computers. I'm stealing your segment 1562 01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 2: to say, oh no, you are correct. 1563 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 6: That reinforces the opinion. Notre Dame iss scored again it's 1564 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,400 Speaker 6: forty two to three at Stanford early in the third. 1565 01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 6: If you didn't see any of the Alabama at Auburn game, 1566 01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:46,560 Speaker 6: I'll say it for not the first year. Shockingly, it 1567 01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:49,880 Speaker 6: was close. Tenth ranked Alabama won at Auburn twenty seven 1568 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:52,000 Speaker 6: to twenty. This is an Auburn team that finished one 1569 01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 6: in seven in conference, but on a touchdown pass with 1570 01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:57,439 Speaker 6: under four minutes to go on a fourth and two, 1571 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:00,920 Speaker 6: Bama wins the game. Despite blowing up seventeen to nothing 1572 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,000 Speaker 6: Lee late first have Auburn fumbled down at the Alabama 1573 01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:07,160 Speaker 6: twenty with about thirty seconds left. Auburn had ten penalties 1574 01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:10,080 Speaker 6: in this game. And so with the Friday A and 1575 01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:13,599 Speaker 6: M loss, Georgia is in the SEC title game in 1576 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 6: Atlanta against Alabama next Saturday. Of course, Georgia just won 1577 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:22,200 Speaker 6: in Atlanta yesterday. We could have had A and M 1578 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:24,160 Speaker 6: in that title game. They were eleven and oh they 1579 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:26,720 Speaker 6: lost at Texas yesterday. And keep in mind, for the 1580 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 6: twelve team playoffs that starts next month, the five highest 1581 01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:35,280 Speaker 6: rank conference champions will automatically make the field. Miami will 1582 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 6: not be the ACC's champion. What if Duke is the 1583 01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:43,080 Speaker 6: ACC's champion, we might then get say, James Madison and 1584 01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:47,680 Speaker 6: Tulane in conference playoff in the national playoff. 1585 01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: Could only be so lucky if be. 1586 01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:49,960 Speaker 3: Better than Duke. 1587 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:53,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I would rather see I'm not saying I'd 1588 01:18:53,200 --> 01:18:55,760 Speaker 2: be excited to see another group of five team. I'd 1589 01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,920 Speaker 2: rather see an eleven and one twelve and one team 1590 01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:01,000 Speaker 2: that actually did something this year, not one some weird TI. 1591 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 1: Rating completely agree. 1592 01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:05,720 Speaker 6: James Madison finished eleven and one today undefeated in the 1593 01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:10,280 Speaker 6: Sun Belt, dominating at Coastal Carolina. Troy won it's finale, 1594 01:19:10,400 --> 01:19:14,400 Speaker 6: and so we're gonna have James Madison hosting Troy Friday 1595 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 6: night in the Sun Belt championship game. Jacksonville State finished 1596 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:22,360 Speaker 6: seven and one in Conference USA after edging Western Kentucky 1597 01:19:22,439 --> 01:19:26,960 Speaker 6: thirty seven thirty four. So in Alabama Jacksonville State Friday, 1598 01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,519 Speaker 6: we'll host the Conference USA title game against Kennesaw State, 1599 01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 6: which won in double overtime at Liberty. And the MAC 1600 01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:37,799 Speaker 6: Conference championship game is next Saturday, opposite the Big Twelve 1601 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:40,599 Speaker 6: title game. They kick off at the same time. In Detroit. 1602 01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 6: It'll be Miami Ohio against Western Michigan. Miami Ohio won 1603 01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 6: its finale against Ball State to finish six and two 1604 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:48,280 Speaker 6: in conference. 1605 01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:52,600 Speaker 2: Say you're the man.

By the way, J Martin, let me 1621 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:47,320 Speaker 2: just get a gripe off my chest. Right now, CBS 1622 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:50,839 Speaker 2: Sports Network is showing their quote unquote updated college football 1623 01:20:50,880 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 2: playoff bracket uh oh, with Miami in as the eleven 1624 01:20:55,200 --> 01:21:01,519 Speaker 2: seed and the only ACC team in the bracket. This 1625 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,759 Speaker 2: has driven me crazy for weeks. Okay, if you're making 1626 01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:12,800 Speaker 2: a bracket online or on TV. And oh, by the way, 1627 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:16,200 Speaker 2: we now know who's playing in the ACC Championship game 1628 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:21,120 Speaker 2: and Miami is not that team, stop putting them in 1629 01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:23,640 Speaker 2: as the only ACC team. It's it's the stupidest thing, 1630 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:29,599 Speaker 2: but it drives me bananas. That bracket literally cannot happen. 1631 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:31,240 Speaker 2: I don't know why I care so much, but it's 1632 01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 2: like I've seen this for weeks. They're just like, hey, technically, no, no, yeah, 1633 01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:40,160 Speaker 2: Like we're living in this world where if thirty seven 1634 01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:43,200 Speaker 2: things happen that aren't gonna happen Miami gets into the 1635 01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:46,160 Speaker 2: big to the AEC Championship game. It's like they're not 1636 01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:49,640 Speaker 2: getting in and all you're doing is giving the casual 1637 01:21:50,360 --> 01:21:54,880 Speaker 2: Texas fan, Vandy fan BYU fan, whoever, hope that their 1638 01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:57,839 Speaker 2: team has a pathway. And if we're under the assumption 1639 01:21:58,040 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 2: that Miami gets in with a head to head win 1640 01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,680 Speaker 2: over Notre Dame, which they got earlier in the year, 1641 01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:05,040 Speaker 2: like it's not happening. 1642 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:05,840 Speaker 3: I don't know why. 1643 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,560 Speaker 2: It just really annoys me. And it's been going on 1644 01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:11,599 Speaker 2: for weeks. And oh, By the way, it's especially egregious 1645 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:14,639 Speaker 2: right now because I know CBS Sports is on CBS 1646 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:17,200 Speaker 2: Sports Network is on live right now, and we know 1647 01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 2: the ACC Championship game in Miami is not going to 1648 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,880 Speaker 2: be in it. Sorry for the random rant, but God, 1649 01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 2: did that? Does that annoy me? 1650 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:26,519 Speaker 3: I don't know why. It just really annoys me. 1651 01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:31,400 Speaker 1: I understand. I understand because it's just illogical, and you know, 1652 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:33,760 Speaker 1: the people that are doing it also know that it's 1653 01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:35,800 Speaker 1: not logical, but they're still putting it up there. 1654 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:36,720 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this. 1655 01:22:36,880 --> 01:22:38,920 Speaker 2: I actually just saw this from Nicole houer Back from 1656 01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:44,920 Speaker 2: NBC Sports, so two things can be true. I agree 1657 01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:49,240 Speaker 2: with a take. I also just fundamentally like it will 1658 01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:51,120 Speaker 2: just never happen for a very logical reason. So when 1659 01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:53,400 Speaker 2: Cole hour Back works for NBC, I find out to 1660 01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:57,040 Speaker 2: be really good, smart, well thought out, et cetera. Okay, 1661 01:22:57,560 --> 01:23:00,559 Speaker 2: she tweeted out at let's see here nine stern time. 1662 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,479 Speaker 2: This might be an unpopular take, but if I'm the 1663 01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 2: ACC and Cal upsets SMU, which is what happened, we 1664 01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 2: now have a Duke Virginia ACC Championship game. She said, 1665 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:14,600 Speaker 2: I would override the tie breakers and put Miami in 1666 01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:19,559 Speaker 2: the ACC Championship game against Virginia. I'll say this as 1667 01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 2: a college football fan, I want that to happen because 1668 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:25,960 Speaker 2: I don't want to watch awful Duke in the ACC 1669 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:29,280 Speaker 2: Championship game with five losses. The counter to that is, 1670 01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:33,160 Speaker 2: this is, weirdly actually the best thing for the ACC, 1671 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:36,519 Speaker 2: because they're very likely going to end up with two 1672 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:40,759 Speaker 2: bids again under the assumption that the College Football Playoff 1673 01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:43,360 Speaker 2: Committee gives Miami the edge over Notre Dame with the 1674 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 2: head to head loss. So I don't know if I 1675 01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:47,360 Speaker 2: have any bold takes on that one either. I just 1676 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:50,760 Speaker 2: thought it was interesting. I wish it happened, but I 1677 01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:52,320 Speaker 2: don't know why the ACC would actually do it. 1678 01:23:52,760 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 1: No, I just I think that that again, unfortunately, the 1679 01:23:58,120 --> 01:24:01,519 Speaker 1: games have to matter. And I say that, but it's like, 1680 01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,360 Speaker 1: I mean, we're watching these We watched a regular season 1681 01:24:04,520 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 1: for a reason, sure, and it has to count. I understand, 1682 01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,120 Speaker 1: like kind of the mentality that we get you there, 1683 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:14,280 Speaker 1: and I'm with you, I would want the exact same thing, 1684 01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,160 Speaker 1: but that's just not how it works. Like, there is 1685 01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:20,240 Speaker 1: a reason why things are set up the way that 1686 01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,599 Speaker 1: they are. There's a reason why teams play twelve regular 1687 01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:25,880 Speaker 1: season games and those have to all factor in. So 1688 01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 1: I don't like the precedent that it would set. And again, 1689 01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 1: like I think one of the bigger problems here is 1690 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:38,479 Speaker 1: just because the brands aren't nearly as impressive, it would 1691 01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 1: look like brand bias on top of everything else. It's 1692 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,479 Speaker 1: just a bad precedent to set. You can't go down 1693 01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:48,600 Speaker 1: this road where we're arbitrarily making decisions not based on 1694 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:49,920 Speaker 1: what took place on the field. 1695 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:52,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll be quick on this. I said it 1696 01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 2: to lead the show. I think it's time to just 1697 01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,760 Speaker 2: eliminate conference chamionship games. Again, another thing that probably won't happen. 1698 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:02,879 Speaker 2: You can keep the five you know, five conference champions 1699 01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:05,800 Speaker 2: getting auto bids into the college football playoff. I just 1700 01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 2: don't think we have to play a conference championship game 1701 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,200 Speaker 2: to get them. Just give it the highest ranked team. 1702 01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:12,719 Speaker 2: Then Miami does get that acc bid, and you're putting 1703 01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 2: your best foot forward, and by the way, Miami gets 1704 01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:18,320 Speaker 2: left out. You know whatever, it's a different conversation. So 1705 01:25:18,520 --> 01:25:22,000 Speaker 2: really quickly, let's switch gears to listen. It's the biggest 1706 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 2: story in sports. Disager just got you caught up on 1707 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:26,879 Speaker 2: all of the big scores from the world to college football. 1708 01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:30,000 Speaker 2: Probably if you missed any of the conversation, we did 1709 01:25:30,040 --> 01:25:34,360 Speaker 2: it a lot in our one. But Higo State beats Michigan, 1710 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:37,880 Speaker 2: Alabama survives the Iron Bowl, Alabama going to the SEC 1711 01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:40,560 Speaker 2: title Game where they'll face Georgia. Let's go ahead and 1712 01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:44,120 Speaker 2: talk the big topic, the big story and the result 1713 01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:47,720 Speaker 2: that were the resolution probably is the better word that 1714 01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:50,679 Speaker 2: we thought we would have by now, but technically sort 1715 01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 2: of don't, but sort of do. And that's what's going 1716 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:54,840 Speaker 2: on with Lane Kiffin. So we came on air at 1717 01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:58,559 Speaker 2: eleven pm Eastern time. We had been told that Lane 1718 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:03,599 Speaker 2: Kiffin would have a resolution on his future as of today. Saturday, 1719 01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:06,599 Speaker 2: Egg Bowl ended the regular season. He wanted to coach, 1720 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 2: the school wanted to coach him whatever. Keith Carter the 1721 01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 2: AD said there would be a resolution by today. Issue 1722 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:15,800 Speaker 2: became that coming into today, Ole Miss still had a 1723 01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:19,560 Speaker 2: chance to make the SEC Championship Game. There was a 1724 01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:24,400 Speaker 2: long meeting at Keith Carter the AD's house with Lane Kiffin. 1725 01:26:24,880 --> 01:26:29,640 Speaker 2: And it's funny because you and I surmised that basically 1726 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:33,680 Speaker 2: it felt as though Lane Kiffin was basically throwing a 1727 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:37,000 Speaker 2: fit wanting to continue coaching this team. Into the postseason 1728 01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:39,600 Speaker 2: and Old Miss was basically saying, it's time for you 1729 01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:40,200 Speaker 2: to go, buddy. 1730 01:26:40,640 --> 01:26:41,160 Speaker 3: Bring it up. 1731 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:44,759 Speaker 2: Just minutes ago, Brett McMurphy tweeted this out. Brett McMurphy 1732 01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:48,760 Speaker 2: of On three said, lane Kiffin is quote essentially demanding 1733 01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:52,679 Speaker 2: to finish the season with Old Miss, while simultaneously threatening 1734 01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:55,280 Speaker 2: to poach Old missus roster and staff if he can't. 1735 01:26:55,720 --> 01:27:00,120 Speaker 2: Source told On three Sports quote, it's unfortunately gotten. E've 1736 01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:04,519 Speaker 2: been messier than expected as emotions are high. End quote 1737 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:08,479 Speaker 2: from Brett McMurphy. Lane Kiffin has scheduled a team meeting 1738 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:11,680 Speaker 2: tomorrow morning where he's expected to tell the team that 1739 01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:12,439 Speaker 2: he is leaving. 1740 01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:15,040 Speaker 3: LSU are leaving four LSU. 1741 01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:18,320 Speaker 2: Only bring it up because that is the latest from 1742 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 2: Brett McMurphy as of about nine minutes ago when he 1743 01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:22,640 Speaker 2: posted that. 1744 01:27:22,760 --> 01:27:27,280 Speaker 1: Chim listen man, I said off the top, and I've 1745 01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:29,720 Speaker 1: said this before. I'm a Lane Kiffin fan. I liked 1746 01:27:29,800 --> 01:27:32,519 Speaker 1: him when he came back out of you know, I 1747 01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 1: mean the tarmac and everything that happened there. When he 1748 01:27:35,280 --> 01:27:37,519 Speaker 1: went to FAU. He used to come on Clay's show 1749 01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:39,680 Speaker 1: in the morning when I was producing. You know, I 1750 01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:42,200 Speaker 1: had a couple of conversations with Lane and we you know, 1751 01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 1: just listening to him off air, just his conversations and stuff. 1752 01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:48,400 Speaker 1: I liked what I heard from him, and you've heard 1753 01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 1: some good things from him in the last few years 1754 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:54,000 Speaker 1: in terms of sobering up and maturing and all these 1755 01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:57,800 Speaker 1: other kinds of things and all this this is insane. Sure, 1756 01:27:57,920 --> 01:28:03,800 Speaker 1: this is ridiculous, This is immature. Absolute Honestly, if this 1757 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:09,840 Speaker 1: is pathetic, like if you are going somewhere else, go 1758 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 1: but like, you have the right. Look, nobody is saying 1759 01:28:14,040 --> 01:28:15,920 Speaker 1: you don't have the right to go to you to LSU. 1760 01:28:16,560 --> 01:28:19,280 Speaker 1: You have earned that because you have done a fantastic 1761 01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:23,240 Speaker 1: job at ole Miss and we already knew you were 1762 01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 1: an offensive guru. You've proven it in multiple locations, and 1763 01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:29,920 Speaker 1: you have built yourself to where you are a hot 1764 01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:33,480 Speaker 1: commodity that everybody wants. Four years ago, you were campaigning 1765 01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:36,519 Speaker 1: for the LSU job and couldn't get it. You wanted 1766 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:39,439 Speaker 1: the Auburn job. They didn't go with you. You thought 1767 01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:42,080 Speaker 1: about Florida, you flirted with them in the past. Now 1768 01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:45,719 Speaker 1: they're all coming to you with their pockets out saying 1769 01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 1: please please come here. You have the right to do that. 1770 01:28:49,479 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 1: You have earned the right to do that, but you 1771 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:53,160 Speaker 1: have not earned the right to do it on your 1772 01:28:53,240 --> 01:28:55,719 Speaker 1: own terms at the expense of the place you're leaving. 1773 01:28:56,760 --> 01:29:00,360 Speaker 1: And that becomes the issue here. All of the water 1774 01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:04,680 Speaker 1: carriers that think that ole Miss is somehow being punitive 1775 01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:09,720 Speaker 1: and punishing poor Lane Kiffin because he wants to take 1776 01:29:09,800 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 1: this job, but he really wants to see this whole 1777 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:16,479 Speaker 1: thing through. This is insane. Again. If you don't understand 1778 01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 1: the sec then you don't understand the rivalry between ole 1779 01:29:19,640 --> 01:29:22,880 Speaker 1: Miss and LSU. They hate each other. Ole Miss absolutely 1780 01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:27,679 Speaker 1: cannot stand LSU. A lot of ole Miss fans consider 1781 01:29:27,880 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 1: LSU a bigger rival than Mississippi State. And you are saying, 1782 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:34,640 Speaker 1: if you are Lane Kiffin, who have been ingrained in 1783 01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:38,400 Speaker 1: that community now for six years, you are saying, Hey, 1784 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:45,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the place you despise after bringing 1785 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:46,880 Speaker 1: you up for a while, I'm gonna go to the 1786 01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:49,400 Speaker 1: big dog now. But I do want to coach you 1787 01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:51,640 Speaker 1: during the college football playoff. I want to see this 1788 01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:56,080 Speaker 1: thing through. No, I can't believe that there are smart 1789 01:29:56,160 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 1: people in this industry that are suggesting that that is 1790 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:02,360 Speaker 1: somehow a not only just a possibility, but something ole 1791 01:30:02,439 --> 01:30:05,760 Speaker 1: Miss should capitulate too. That's ridiculous. If he wants to 1792 01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:08,240 Speaker 1: go somewhere. He's saying, look, I really do like you. 1793 01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 1: I just don't think your marriage material and that's fine. 1794 01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:14,800 Speaker 1: But then ole Miss needs to move on, and so 1795 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,160 Speaker 1: does Lane Kiffin. It's ugly, it's gross, but these are 1796 01:30:18,200 --> 01:30:20,680 Speaker 1: how breakups take place. We're not sitting here for the 1797 01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:24,519 Speaker 1: next five or six weeks, you know, playing foot seat 1798 01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:27,720 Speaker 1: underneath the table with our recruits to then bring them 1799 01:30:27,760 --> 01:30:31,080 Speaker 1: to Baton Rouge after this thing, get on the airplane 1800 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:34,599 Speaker 1: with your family, put on the purple and yellow, learn 1801 01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:37,320 Speaker 1: from Brian Kelly's mistake, not the fake an accent, and 1802 01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:40,720 Speaker 1: become the LSU Tiger's head coach. Have the press conference 1803 01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:43,719 Speaker 1: and you know, have the ticker tape parade in Baton 1804 01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:47,480 Speaker 1: Rouge and everything else, but get the heck out of Oxford. 1805 01:30:48,360 --> 01:30:52,880 Speaker 1: This cannot happen. I don't care what you're demanding. If 1806 01:30:52,920 --> 01:30:54,880 Speaker 1: I'm ole Miss and I'm Carter, I'm like, don't let 1807 01:30:54,920 --> 01:30:56,680 Speaker 1: the screen door hit you on the keyser and the 1808 01:30:56,720 --> 01:30:57,960 Speaker 1: way out. Yeah. 1809 01:30:58,360 --> 01:31:01,479 Speaker 2: My stance is I actually think I think it was 1810 01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:07,360 Speaker 2: a semi selfish I think Keith Carter it was clear 1811 01:31:08,280 --> 01:31:10,559 Speaker 2: that I think he could have easily said dude, if 1812 01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:12,960 Speaker 2: you're not with us, because remember Ole Miss had a buy. 1813 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 2: So this is basically been going on for three weeks now, 1814 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:17,720 Speaker 2: since the really the start of the Florida Week, but 1815 01:31:17,760 --> 01:31:20,040 Speaker 2: even the end of the Florida Week, it's like it's 1816 01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:22,639 Speaker 2: been clear that he's at minimum gonna flirt. He doesn't 1817 01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:24,320 Speaker 2: want to talk about it, but he also wants to 1818 01:31:24,400 --> 01:31:26,120 Speaker 2: keep his options open, but he also wants to coach 1819 01:31:26,200 --> 01:31:28,400 Speaker 2: the team. And I said it last week, I said, 1820 01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:32,320 Speaker 2: I actually respect the ad for doing this because you 1821 01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:34,880 Speaker 2: can't drag it on forever. And for people who don't 1822 01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:38,439 Speaker 2: really understand the calendar, it's a few things. Is one, 1823 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:43,680 Speaker 2: we're talking about the college football playoff going deep into January. 1824 01:31:43,920 --> 01:31:46,479 Speaker 2: If Ole Miss keeps winning, and people would say, well, 1825 01:31:46,520 --> 01:31:49,160 Speaker 2: why can't you just wait till the end, Well, because 1826 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:51,240 Speaker 2: you have to hire a new coach, and that new 1827 01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:53,679 Speaker 2: coach needs to get boots on the ground and start 1828 01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:55,960 Speaker 2: to get to work on next year. And there's gonna 1829 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 2: be people that say, well, well, just let him finish 1830 01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:01,360 Speaker 2: it out. The other variable is that in this world 1831 01:32:01,439 --> 01:32:06,679 Speaker 2: that we live in, he will be coaching many players 1832 01:32:07,120 --> 01:32:10,280 Speaker 2: that he plans to recruit to LSU the day the 1833 01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:13,320 Speaker 2: season ends, and so the Bret McMurphy tweet referenced it. 1834 01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:17,519 Speaker 2: But you can't have him in that locker room coaching 1835 01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:20,120 Speaker 2: these guys up until the bitter end. And then oh, 1836 01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:23,920 Speaker 2: by the way, the game goes final on you know, 1837 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:26,880 Speaker 2: New Year's Eve, you lose in the Rose Bowl or whatever, 1838 01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:30,000 Speaker 2: and then oh twelve oh one. Hey, by the way, 1839 01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:33,400 Speaker 2: I throw down the you know, like you'd always talk 1840 01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:37,560 Speaker 2: about the wrestling stuff, Jabart, throw down the old miss advisor, 1841 01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 2: put on the LSU visor and say who's coming. 1842 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:41,040 Speaker 3: But you can't do that. 1843 01:32:41,720 --> 01:32:45,000 Speaker 2: And so, like I understand the notion of wanting to 1844 01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:47,600 Speaker 2: start what you finish what you started, Well, guess what, 1845 01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:50,679 Speaker 2: there's a way to do it. Agree to keep coaching 1846 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:53,240 Speaker 2: the team for the foreseeable future, and agree to come 1847 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:55,400 Speaker 2: back next year. And by the way, just I'll put 1848 01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:57,679 Speaker 2: a bow on it by saying, people that are blaming 1849 01:32:57,920 --> 01:33:00,680 Speaker 2: that this is somehow a calendar issue, it'd be no 1850 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:08,479 Speaker 2: different if, for some crazy reason, Sean McVeigh said, I 1851 01:33:08,600 --> 01:33:11,080 Speaker 2: want I'm coaching the New York Giants next year, and 1852 01:33:11,120 --> 01:33:13,800 Speaker 2: I have made that decision, and there's nothing you can do. 1853 01:33:15,280 --> 01:33:18,639 Speaker 2: It's not on the RAM like like like, the calendar 1854 01:33:18,680 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 2: doesn't line up for Sean McVay to do that any 1855 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:23,080 Speaker 2: different than it does for Lane Kiffin. Like at some point, 1856 01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:24,920 Speaker 2: Sean McVay would have to make a choice, are you 1857 01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:26,640 Speaker 2: gonna be the RAMS coach in the playoffs? Are you 1858 01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:28,800 Speaker 2: gonna go take this other job? You can't do both. 1859 01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:30,760 Speaker 2: And it's the same with Lane Kiffin. For anyone to 1860 01:33:30,760 --> 01:33:34,800 Speaker 2: complain about the calendar, there's no calendar designed for a 1861 01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 2: coach that's good enough to win the national championship to 1862 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:40,080 Speaker 2: also leave his school. So I just threw a lot 1863 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:42,040 Speaker 2: out there, But that's just a little bit of context. 1864 01:33:42,439 --> 01:33:45,519 Speaker 2: You can't keep letting him coach. And so you reference 1865 01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:47,200 Speaker 2: some of the comments that were made throughout the day, 1866 01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:51,200 Speaker 2: you know, you referenced you know whoever saying that Ole 1867 01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 2: Miss was being emotional about this. 1868 01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:55,960 Speaker 1: Well yeah, yeah, look, no, no, I think you're being hurt. 1869 01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:57,600 Speaker 1: Street said, I'll call him out. I mean in this 1870 01:33:57,720 --> 01:34:00,280 Speaker 1: case Herpstreet said, ole Miss Hester, you have to leave 1871 01:34:00,320 --> 01:34:03,080 Speaker 1: the emotion out of this. He would want his players, 1872 01:34:03,120 --> 01:34:05,040 Speaker 1: would want him to finish this off. He wants to 1873 01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:07,840 Speaker 1: finish this off. How could you do this and of course, 1874 01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:09,760 Speaker 1: you know Saban backed it up as well on the 1875 01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:11,720 Speaker 1: same set and all this other stuff, and it's like, 1876 01:34:13,040 --> 01:34:15,120 Speaker 1: I do think that, and you made this point. I 1877 01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:19,800 Speaker 1: do think that Ole Miss generally has been pretty even 1878 01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:22,880 Speaker 1: keeled about this, considering how they've just kind of been 1879 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:26,800 Speaker 1: strung along for a few weeks at this point. But 1880 01:34:26,960 --> 01:34:29,679 Speaker 1: this is not some kind of punishment for Lane Kiffin. 1881 01:34:30,160 --> 01:34:33,719 Speaker 1: This is the cost of doing business. You're going somewhere else. 1882 01:34:33,840 --> 01:34:36,680 Speaker 1: That means you're not coaching here. We have to move 1883 01:34:36,720 --> 01:34:40,200 Speaker 1: on for our future immediately, just like you do. And honestly, 1884 01:34:40,880 --> 01:34:43,719 Speaker 1: we haven't really taken it from this perspective. I'm lsu, 1885 01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:45,559 Speaker 1: I'm paying you to be my coach. Get the hell 1886 01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:48,760 Speaker 1: of gotten, rouge. I don't need you worried about the 1887 01:34:48,800 --> 01:34:51,760 Speaker 1: college football playoff ter and recruiting portal and nil and 1888 01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:55,320 Speaker 1: everything else that's going on. I'm sorry that the calendar stinks, 1889 01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:58,439 Speaker 1: but unfortunately there's only twelve months in the year, and 1890 01:34:58,560 --> 01:35:01,360 Speaker 1: college football is a pretty dem ending sport from the 1891 01:35:01,400 --> 01:35:04,800 Speaker 1: coaching perspective because of what it takes to field a team, 1892 01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:07,840 Speaker 1: build a team, buy a team, all the things that 1893 01:35:07,960 --> 01:35:11,439 Speaker 1: go into that. But I'm not paying you a dummy 1894 01:35:11,560 --> 01:35:14,080 Speaker 1: year to go ahead and enjoy your time at ole 1895 01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:17,080 Speaker 1: Miss and then come here Like that's not how this works. 1896 01:35:17,200 --> 01:35:21,080 Speaker 1: I need you on the ground for me, one hundred 1897 01:35:21,200 --> 01:35:25,759 Speaker 1: percent committed. Remember this is Alane Kiffen, who Nick Saban 1898 01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:31,920 Speaker 1: sent away during a playoff during the postseason because he 1899 01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:35,040 Speaker 1: was distracted because he had taken the FAU head coaching job. 1900 01:35:35,880 --> 01:35:38,200 Speaker 1: It's the same kind of thing, like and that was 1901 01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:41,240 Speaker 1: a much different scenario. He was going from Alabama OC 1902 01:35:42,280 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 1: to a head coaching job at Florida Atlantic. Here it's 1903 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:48,720 Speaker 1: going to the rival and the rival's gonna wait, and 1904 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,400 Speaker 1: the person that you're there is gonna like no, no, 1905 01:35:51,680 --> 01:35:54,439 Speaker 1: Like this is just I understand what Lane wants. I 1906 01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:57,320 Speaker 1: understand that Lane would love to have both jobs in 1907 01:35:57,439 --> 01:36:01,320 Speaker 1: his own head, but unfortunately we don't live in fairytale land. 1908 01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:04,600 Speaker 1: Like we gotta be men. We got it's time to 1909 01:36:04,760 --> 01:36:09,040 Speaker 1: just grow up. The decision is made, go ahead and 1910 01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:11,759 Speaker 1: leave like this is this is a rap. We gotta 1911 01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:12,200 Speaker 1: stop this. 1912 01:36:12,760 --> 01:36:15,000 Speaker 2: We only got like a minute or two before we 1913 01:36:15,080 --> 01:36:17,439 Speaker 2: do have to switch gears to the NFL. Is there 1914 01:36:17,479 --> 01:36:20,000 Speaker 2: a world where this just like because like you're hiring 1915 01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,439 Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin at LSU A school that three of the 1916 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:26,360 Speaker 2: last four coaches have won national championships to win national championships, like, 1917 01:36:26,439 --> 01:36:28,479 Speaker 2: is there a world, because I do think it is 1918 01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:30,240 Speaker 2: fair at the end of the day to be like, 1919 01:36:31,240 --> 01:36:33,759 Speaker 2: are we sure this guy's worth all of this hassle? 1920 01:36:33,800 --> 01:36:36,120 Speaker 2: And it was kind of it was a conversation when 1921 01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:39,960 Speaker 2: it was LSU and Florida were both tripping over themselves 1922 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:42,120 Speaker 2: to hire this guy, like do you see the world 1923 01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:44,840 Speaker 2: where he just goes to LSU And maybe it's pretty good, 1924 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:45,320 Speaker 2: but it's. 1925 01:36:45,400 --> 01:36:45,760 Speaker 3: Because like. 1926 01:36:47,360 --> 01:36:51,000 Speaker 2: LSU is is to your point, in their own way, 1927 01:36:51,120 --> 01:36:53,040 Speaker 2: gonna have to put up a lot of with a 1928 01:36:53,080 --> 01:36:55,120 Speaker 2: lot of crap once he gets there. And I'm just 1929 01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:58,479 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be awesome there. I'm not trying 1930 01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:00,840 Speaker 2: to like for all of the crap that he's put 1931 01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:03,000 Speaker 2: all missed through, he is an excellent coach and he 1932 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:05,160 Speaker 2: has him at eleven. And one I do just think 1933 01:37:05,200 --> 01:37:07,719 Speaker 2: it's interesting is like he has never made the playoff. 1934 01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:10,320 Speaker 2: He'll have never coached a playoff game by the time 1935 01:37:10,400 --> 01:37:13,639 Speaker 2: he gets to LSU, h never won a conference championship. 1936 01:37:13,960 --> 01:37:16,599 Speaker 2: It's just I don't know. I just I think he's 1937 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:18,679 Speaker 2: gonna be awesome. But I feel like there's a world 1938 01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:20,920 Speaker 2: where we went through all of this and he isn't 1939 01:37:20,960 --> 01:37:22,080 Speaker 2: what LSU signed up for. 1940 01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:26,320 Speaker 1: Well, the one thing I will say is that what 1941 01:37:26,520 --> 01:37:28,559 Speaker 1: he has done at ole Miss, he could have done 1942 01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:30,519 Speaker 1: for the next thirty years, and I think they would 1943 01:37:30,520 --> 01:37:31,519 Speaker 1: have been happy with him there. 1944 01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:31,800 Speaker 3: Yep. 1945 01:37:33,320 --> 01:37:36,360 Speaker 1: If he does that at LSU, he'll be fired in 1946 01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:40,719 Speaker 1: five years. Great cop, that's the difference. He was building 1947 01:37:40,760 --> 01:37:44,160 Speaker 1: a legacy at a place where the expectations were reasonable 1948 01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:47,960 Speaker 1: for him, where he had full control. And let's not 1949 01:37:48,200 --> 01:37:52,080 Speaker 1: forget ole Miss did everything under the sun to help 1950 01:37:52,160 --> 01:37:54,280 Speaker 1: him while he was there. They let him run it 1951 01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:56,560 Speaker 1: the way he wanted to. They gave him all the 1952 01:37:56,640 --> 01:38:00,640 Speaker 1: resources known to mankind to help him through it. They 1953 01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:03,640 Speaker 1: gave him everything that he possibly could have asked for. 1954 01:38:04,320 --> 01:38:06,120 Speaker 1: There was nothing left for them, and they were gonna 1955 01:38:06,160 --> 01:38:08,680 Speaker 1: match whatever the money deal was as well, so there 1956 01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:11,280 Speaker 1: was nothing left for them to do. And he's still 1957 01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:13,840 Speaker 1: going to leave and he's going to a place that 1958 01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:18,400 Speaker 1: just paid out ten mil ninety mil or our ten 1959 01:38:18,520 --> 01:38:21,960 Speaker 1: years ninety mili to Brian Kelly, another guy who had 1960 01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,679 Speaker 1: not won a championship before he got there, who failed, 1961 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:27,360 Speaker 1: And now they're looking at seven years, ninety eight million 1962 01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:31,160 Speaker 1: dollars for you. You're coming in and there's only one expectation, 1963 01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:36,560 Speaker 1: you are going to win a national championship. So what 1964 01:38:36,840 --> 01:38:41,240 Speaker 1: that tells me is this, Lane Kifvin does not believe 1965 01:38:41,360 --> 01:38:45,280 Speaker 1: he can win a national championship at Ole Miss, if 1966 01:38:45,320 --> 01:38:47,840 Speaker 1: he did think he could actually do it there, with 1967 01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:50,840 Speaker 1: the resources involved, whatever it is that it takes to 1968 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:53,479 Speaker 1: build a roster at Ole Miss, he must think it's 1969 01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:56,400 Speaker 1: just not something that's gonna happen. That he's gotten close, 1970 01:38:56,479 --> 01:38:59,080 Speaker 1: but that he's hit the ceiling, because why on earth 1971 01:38:59,120 --> 01:39:01,680 Speaker 1: would you leave for another job if you thought you 1972 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:05,000 Speaker 1: could win? And in this era of college football, I'm 1973 01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:07,040 Speaker 1: not so sure he hasn't made a mistake. 1974 01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:10,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'll just be quick in saying this is 1975 01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:14,360 Speaker 2: that I saw a tweet and I thought it summed 1976 01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:17,040 Speaker 2: it up really well. It was basically to the effect 1977 01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:21,320 Speaker 2: and a paraphrasing of if all of the if you're 1978 01:39:21,479 --> 01:39:24,560 Speaker 2: leaving Old Miss to do all of the things that 1979 01:39:24,840 --> 01:39:28,120 Speaker 2: you can't do here, why are you currently doing all 1980 01:39:28,200 --> 01:39:29,160 Speaker 2: of those same things? 1981 01:39:29,640 --> 01:39:31,280 Speaker 3: And that's a bad way to phrase it. 1982 01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:33,920 Speaker 2: It was phrased better in the tweet, But essentially, if 1983 01:39:33,960 --> 01:39:35,639 Speaker 2: the argument is you got to go there, to make 1984 01:39:35,680 --> 01:39:38,160 Speaker 2: the playoff, to win a national championship, to do whatever, 1985 01:39:38,800 --> 01:39:41,479 Speaker 2: maybe make an SEC championship game almost happened this year. 1986 01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:46,600 Speaker 2: He's doing everything at LSU at Old Miss that he 1987 01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:49,639 Speaker 2: could do at LSU. Now, obviously there are some stages 1988 01:39:49,720 --> 01:39:52,240 Speaker 2: that he never had the opportunity to get to it 1989 01:39:52,320 --> 01:39:56,760 Speaker 2: Old Miss, but it is worth noting he you know, 1990 01:39:56,840 --> 01:39:58,759 Speaker 2: he had a pretty good run and then to your point, 1991 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:02,400 Speaker 2: currently feels like he has done everything that he can 1992 01:40:02,720 --> 01:40:03,360 Speaker 2: at all Miss. 1993 01:40:04,040 --> 01:40:06,200 Speaker 3: For people just joining us, there. 1994 01:40:05,800 --> 01:40:08,400 Speaker 2: Are multiple reports out now that there will be planes 1995 01:40:08,520 --> 01:40:12,759 Speaker 2: on the ground in Oxford on Sunday morning.

Okay, so I don't know what 2018 01:41:23,560 --> 01:41:28,000 Speaker 2: that means, but story bro, Yeah, yeah, so I think 2019 01:41:28,080 --> 01:41:30,400 Speaker 2: that means he's probably leaving in the morning, just a 2020 01:41:30,439 --> 01:41:33,840 Speaker 2: matter of where and who. That's another reason, and that's 2021 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:36,120 Speaker 2: why you have to boot lane Kiff into the curb. 2022 01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:40,400 Speaker 2: Like the guys that in theory want this job are 2023 01:41:40,479 --> 01:41:42,439 Speaker 2: going to have other hypotheticals too. 2024 01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:46,680 Speaker 1: All right, look at what's happening in Auburn. I mean, 2025 01:41:46,920 --> 01:41:49,680 Speaker 1: Auburn thought they were they were gonna get some raw. 2026 01:41:50,400 --> 01:41:52,400 Speaker 1: Now it looks like Florida is gonna get some raw. 2027 01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:55,400 Speaker 1: And I saw a comment that said, what's hilarious about this? 2028 01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:58,559 Speaker 1: Is both Auburn and Florida fans are upset about that. Yeah, 2029 01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:00,720 Speaker 1: just unbelievable. 2030 01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:04,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's it's interesting. Some are all coming from 2031 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:07,240 Speaker 2: the group of five ranks. Of course, Billion Napier was 2032 01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:09,960 Speaker 2: a total flop there, so I think people are frustrated. 2033 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:12,519 Speaker 3: Uh, you know who hasn't been a flop? J Martin, 2034 01:42:13,320 --> 01:42:14,400 Speaker 3: Brian Schottenheimer. 2035 01:42:14,880 --> 01:42:18,960 Speaker 1: Man, we need to let's do it. Let's apologize. Yeah, 2036 01:42:19,080 --> 01:42:20,720 Speaker 1: so let's let's apologize. 2037 01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:24,839 Speaker 2: So you did two pros on Friday, Thursday and Friday, 2038 01:42:25,040 --> 01:42:27,760 Speaker 2: I did uh Covino and Rich as well as the 2039 01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:32,120 Speaker 2: Gottlieb Show on Thursday, and I said, this is that 2040 01:42:32,600 --> 01:42:34,759 Speaker 2: and we were all fair before the game went final. 2041 01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:40,920 Speaker 2: But I said, at minimum Schottenheimer one, he's exceeded every expectation. Okay, 2042 01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:44,439 Speaker 2: the Cowboys are obviously in the playoff mix at the 2043 01:42:44,600 --> 01:42:47,280 Speaker 2: very least. This is what they're a really fun watch 2044 01:42:47,680 --> 01:42:50,160 Speaker 2: day they are And like, I don't know even when 2045 01:42:50,200 --> 01:42:52,800 Speaker 2: the Cowboys were winning eleven games a year that they 2046 01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:54,720 Speaker 2: were as fun of a watch as they are now. 2047 01:42:55,280 --> 01:42:57,840 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott is playing as well as he has been 2048 01:42:58,280 --> 01:43:01,760 Speaker 2: the George Pickens. Pickens has not blown up in their 2049 01:43:01,840 --> 01:43:04,720 Speaker 2: face and you know, this was a guy and I'll 2050 01:43:04,760 --> 01:43:07,439 Speaker 2: include myself. I made fun of the higher you know, 2051 01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:11,360 Speaker 2: the line I said all offseason was it feels like 2052 01:43:11,960 --> 01:43:14,519 Speaker 2: there's an inside joke going on on the Cowboys that 2053 01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:16,479 Speaker 2: they think they're on the inside of, but they're the 2054 01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:19,439 Speaker 2: butt of the joke. This guy has impressed me. Cowboys 2055 01:43:19,479 --> 01:43:21,760 Speaker 2: beat the Chiefs on Thanksgiving Day to improve two six' 2056 01:43:21,920 --> 01:43:24,120 Speaker 2: five and. One and AS i mentioned very much in 2057 01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:26,280 Speaker 2: the playoff, conversation, yeah, look. 2058 01:43:26,240 --> 01:43:29,439 Speaker 1: And here's the other. Thing What's Brian schottenheimer known? 2059 01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:29,560 Speaker 4: For? 2060 01:43:31,439 --> 01:43:35,240 Speaker 1: Offense? Yep what are The cowboys really good at this? Year? 2061 01:43:36,760 --> 01:43:39,519 Speaker 1: Offense the play calling has been, Good dak's been. Amazing 2062 01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:43,760 Speaker 1: to your point About, PICKENS i, Mean pickens, was you, 2063 01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:45,639 Speaker 1: know a guy that couldn't get out of his own 2064 01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:47,840 Speaker 1: way a lot In. Pittsburgh as much talent as he, 2065 01:43:47,920 --> 01:43:49,920 Speaker 1: had he kind of reminded me a lot of What 2066 01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:53,200 Speaker 1: Jameson williams does when he makes me roll my eyes In. 2067 01:43:53,280 --> 01:43:56,760 Speaker 1: Detroit he's got all sorts of, talent but he still 2068 01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,120 Speaker 1: spins the ball on the opponent's face and does all. 2069 01:43:59,200 --> 01:44:01,080 Speaker 1: This AND i understand that that helps him play with an, 2070 01:44:01,160 --> 01:44:02,880 Speaker 1: edge and it's probably one of the reasons he's so, 2071 01:44:03,040 --> 01:44:06,479 Speaker 1: good but it's also he makes some boneheaded decisions TO 2072 01:44:06,560 --> 01:44:10,439 Speaker 1: harmss football, team And pickens was kind of volatile hadn't 2073 01:44:10,479 --> 01:44:13,080 Speaker 1: been In dallas, Though like all of a, sudden him 2074 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,680 Speaker 1: And Ceedee lamb just living their best life out, here 2075 01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:18,760 Speaker 1: like one of the best tandems in the, league and 2076 01:44:19,240 --> 01:44:22,959 Speaker 1: they could run. It dak is being protected with the. Football, 2077 01:44:23,560 --> 01:44:26,920 Speaker 1: yeah the defense is not, good but the side of 2078 01:44:27,000 --> 01:44:30,080 Speaker 1: the football That Brian schottenheimer has been most responsible for 2079 01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:34,160 Speaker 1: is crushing it like they are absolutely. DOMINANT i, mean 2080 01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:36,520 Speaker 1: look at. THIS i, mean they beat the two participants 2081 01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:40,160 Speaker 1: in last Year's Super bowl in four. Days they came 2082 01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:42,320 Speaker 1: back and beat The eagles On sunday and then beat 2083 01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:47,360 Speaker 1: The chiefs On. Thursday they're just they're better than they 2084 01:44:47,439 --> 01:44:50,840 Speaker 1: should be by our own. Estimation, Remember Michaeh parsons doesn't 2085 01:44:50,840 --> 01:44:53,160 Speaker 1: play for them either. ANYMORE i think they had a 2086 01:44:53,200 --> 01:44:55,799 Speaker 1: pretty good move a couple moves there at the deadline 2087 01:44:55,840 --> 01:44:58,559 Speaker 1: For Jerry. JONES i still, think you, know you're probably 2088 01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:00,519 Speaker 1: not better Without Michaeh, parsons but the fact of the 2089 01:45:00,560 --> 01:45:03,400 Speaker 1: matter is you weren't winning when he was. There whatever 2090 01:45:03,560 --> 01:45:06,880 Speaker 1: has changed for, Them Brian. Schottenheimer if you were going 2091 01:45:06,960 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 1: to bury him because they were a two win football 2092 01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:11,919 Speaker 1: team right, now you got to get him some. Flowers 2093 01:45:12,200 --> 01:45:15,360 Speaker 1: he's done. Well he looks like he has the respect 2094 01:45:15,439 --> 01:45:17,840 Speaker 1: of the. Team he seems to be running a very 2095 01:45:17,920 --> 01:45:21,160 Speaker 1: mature professional outfit down. There when you hear him, talk 2096 01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:23,439 Speaker 1: he seems to know what he's doing as, Well like 2097 01:45:24,479 --> 01:45:26,560 Speaker 1: we may have just gotten this one wrong, eron and 2098 01:45:26,680 --> 01:45:29,519 Speaker 1: that's all, Right Like i'm not rooting to be right 2099 01:45:29,600 --> 01:45:32,840 Speaker 1: When i'm talking about somebody's. Failure and so WHEN i 2100 01:45:32,960 --> 01:45:36,920 Speaker 1: See Brian schottenheimer exceeding expectations and doing a good, JOB i, say, 2101 01:45:36,960 --> 01:45:40,160 Speaker 1: man good for. Him but you're, right The cowboys had 2102 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:43,080 Speaker 1: become so boring in the last four or five. Years 2103 01:45:43,120 --> 01:45:45,639 Speaker 1: it felt, like right now they're one of the most 2104 01:45:45,680 --> 01:45:49,479 Speaker 1: exciting watches in the. League and offensively they, are can't 2105 01:45:49,560 --> 01:45:50,920 Speaker 1: miss they. 2106 01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:53,320 Speaker 2: Are and, YEAH i, mean you know the other thing, 2107 01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:55,519 Speaker 2: too which was interesting because AND i thought it was 2108 01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:58,800 Speaker 2: a fair argument at the, time is, that you, Know 2109 01:45:58,880 --> 01:46:01,680 Speaker 2: mike McCarthy little bit of a loose. Ship you, know 2110 01:46:01,760 --> 01:46:04,280 Speaker 2: a couple of years they led the league in, penalties you, 2111 01:46:04,320 --> 01:46:06,759 Speaker 2: know kind of meltdowns at the worst possible. Time whatever 2112 01:46:07,400 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 2: AND i remember it was one of the cowboys that's 2113 01:46:10,040 --> 01:46:11,960 Speaker 2: ON tv all the.
