But the big 46 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 3: news here, the reason why six and six Virginia Tech 47 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 3: is an eleven and a half point favorite over Tulane. 48 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 3: Is Tulane has I remember one? Their coach, Willie Fritz, 49 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 3: took the head coaching job at Houston. He's taken almost 50 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 3: his entire staff, but apparently they will still coach in 51 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 3: the bowl game. Here's who's out. Starting quarterback Michael Pratt, 52 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 3: Starting wide receiver Chris Brazzel. He would a hell of 53 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 3: a freshman year. Starting safety DJ Douglas starting edge, Devin 54 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 3: Neal starting edge, Keith Cooper, starting tight end Alex Bowman, 55 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: starting offensive lineman Prince Pine, starting wide receiver Toakwon Jackson. 56 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 3: Their other starting receiver, keys Is Hurt, Starting defensive lineman 57 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 3: Darius Hodges, starting a cornerback Jerius Moonurow. Their backup quarter 58 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 3: Hi Horton is out apparently too, even though he's been 59 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: practicing defensive back Cantral Web safety Kilan Harrison. I mean 60 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 3: it is a mess. Apparently justin Nebieta is going to 61 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 3: start a quarterback. The thing is is that with all 62 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 3: with Pratt out and all these receivers out Tulane, you 63 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 3: think it's going to come out of here. Try to 64 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,399 Speaker 3: run the ball. You can't and but they can't run 65 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 3: the ball, and that's how you have to attack Virginia Tech. 66 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 3: Virginia Tech had an outstanding pass defense and it looks 67 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 3: like they're most of their team is going to play. 68 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 3: So from a motivational player availability standpoint, and now matchup perspective, 69 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 3: everything favors Virginia Tech. I think Tulane might be on 70 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: Syracuse watch. I think it's you know, it's an expensive 71 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 3: number now, but I could not get behind back in Tulane. 72 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 3: What do you see here in the Military Bowl which 73 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 3: will be played in Annapolis, Maryland, So I guess keep 74 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 3: an eye on maybe some wins and weather. But December 75 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 3: twenty seventh, two pm Eastern on est what do you 76 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: see here? 77 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: Very expensive number, A very expensive number as to what 78 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: it was if this was played during the season, it 79 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: should have been three and a half. But with Michael 80 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: Pratt and the rest of this roster out, I mean 81 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: you talk about wide receiver Chris Burzell, Tieden, Alex Bauman, 82 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: I mean, there's they're. 83 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 3: Missing twelve starters out so. 84 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: Much, I mean, can't we take the whole podcast to 85 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 2: go through it? 86 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: So, you know, I don't even know if the number 87 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: is justified, because I think the number is justified for 88 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: Pratt being out, But what about all these other weapons? Now, 89 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: kai Ky Horton, you know, being in the portal but 90 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: might play in this game tells me you just haven't founded. 91 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: No one's given you a dollar amount to commit to 92 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: another school. And Justin Ibeda does have some experience here. 93 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: He's played. 94 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 3: He played some last year. 95 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, four years he's been in the system. 96 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: Thirty eight passing attempts, two big time throws, two turnover 97 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: worthy plays. Nothing really you can base anything on. But 98 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: with Keys and Jackson out, the top four targets are 99 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: gone in this game. I you're right, I don't know 100 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: how anyone can make a case that tu lane is 101 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: not on. We're not going to say corpse watch anymore. 102 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna Syracuse watch when you flip to the other side. 103 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech's fifty seven percent rush but overall, you know, 104 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: just poor numbers on the season from a success rate standpoint. 105 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: What I find interesting about Virginia Tech's rushing numbers is 106 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: baseel Tuton is four point seven yards per carry. He 107 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: averages three point six after contact, and that just shows 108 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: you how bad the offensive line has been creating holes 109 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: for him. I mean, it's only one yard that they've 110 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: made either eighty third stuff rate. The strength of the 111 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: offense really has been pass explosives Kyron Jones fifteen to 112 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: three TD to I int the A dot is really 113 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: the most interesting. He average about eight point eight on 114 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: the season, but if you look at the last two games, 115 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: ten point six and thirteen point eight average depth of 116 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: target against NC State and Virginia. So they have become 117 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: more explosive here. 118 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, their offense, by the way, drugs didn't start all year, 119 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 3: definitely got better once he took over as a full 120 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 3: time starter, and his legs and his mobility definitely opened 121 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 3: up the offense and then can mask some of those 122 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: issues along the offensive line. 123 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: At two lanes, defense was ninety eight and defending past explosives. 124 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: But you know, Virginia Tech is way more explosive than 125 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: standard downs, and that's because when they pass in standard 126 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: downs with drones they go wild here. 127 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: So I agree, I. 128 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: Don't see any reason that this isn't Syracuse watch here. 129 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: I'm you know, I've never been a fan of telling 130 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: people to lay a big number when it's seven points 131 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: off what I would make it during the season, but 132 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech is the only way player, or maybe you 133 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: set up yourself for a parlay for the rest of 134 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: the day. You have a couple of different options here. 135 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 3: Yep, agree, spot Tech or nothing. 136 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: I do like the under on the total, like, but 137 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: it's the same thing as what we just saw with 138 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: Syracuse in South Florida. Stalk It's like, I like the under, 139 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: but can Virginia Tech eclipse a forty five? 140 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: That's the scary part of that total. 141 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 3: By the way, do you bowl? 142 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: Are you a bowler? 143 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 3: No? 144 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: My dad rolls a two thirty average. I can't. I 145 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 2: can't match him, so I don't play. 146 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I will occasionally not any good? All right, 147 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 3: let's move on to the Duke's Mayo Bowl. 148 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 2: If you're not using dukes in your potato salad, you're 149 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: missing out on one of the main ingredients. 150 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: The word is spreading. Dukes is creamier, more like homemade. 151 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 2: I wouldn't try another brand just because it wouldn't respect 152 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 2: my potatoes. Out dukes.

But I grew up on Helmans, so I'm 162 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: always just a Helman's guy. But some people swear by Dukes. 163 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 3: So do you have a mayonnaise preference. 164 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: I hope Mitchell's got a sound drop my I love that. 165 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: Bring out the Helmans and bring out the best. 166 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 2: That was a really good commercial.

We're getting old. 177 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 2: We have to watch everything, right, Yeah. 178 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 3: No, that's true. No, but there's certain things I will 179 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 3: not compromise. Mayonnaise and then like ranch you can't like 180 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 3: fat free ranch is garbage. Sorry, I'm sorry, all right, 181 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 3: let's move on. 182 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 2: All right. 183 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 3: So the Duke's may have Well Western. The reason they're 184 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 3: six and a half point favored here over North Carolina 185 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: primarily it's because Drake May will not play, opted out 186 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: there start quarterback for the NFL Draft. Backup Connor Harrell 187 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: will start. They also have some injuries. They're starting tight 188 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 3: end John Coppenhaber, they're starting wide receiver Bryce and Nesbit, 189 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 3: they're starting cornerback Elijah Hussey, and they're starting safety Will Hardy. 190 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 3: They are all hurt and won't play in the bowl game. 191 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 3: Their other starter, Nate McCollum, he was hurting, didn't play 192 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 3: in the finale. And then they also have other opt outs, 193 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 3: starting linebackers Cedric dre NFL starting center, Corey Gaynor, NFL, 194 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: starting wide receiver Tess Walker NFL, starting defensive lineman Miles 195 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: Murphy NFL Murphy. Though apparently among the opt outs May, Gray, Gaynor, Walker, 196 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 3: and Murphy, only Murphy will play in the bowl game. 197 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 3: Among those five, West Virginia, they had some guys hit 198 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 3: the transfer portal, you know, defensive lineman Mike Lohart, Mike Lockhart, 199 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 3: safety Hershey McLaurin, but no one really really too important. However, 200 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: their star center Zach Frazier, who go one or two 201 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: in the draft as far as centers are concerned, he 202 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 3: will miss the Bowl following surgery. Is an important part 203 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 3: of that offensive line. But it looks like from a 204 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 3: motivational standpoint, player personnel, wes Virginia major edge here, which 205 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 3: is why you know they are favored in this line 206 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: is leaked out to six and a half. He also 207 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 3: could see some rain for this game, but we're pretty 208 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 3: far out from the weather forecast. But something to keep 209 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,599 Speaker 3: in mind because this will be played outdoors. But you 210 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 3: look at West Virginia if they want to run the ball, 211 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 3: and they should have lots of success doing that against 212 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 3: North Carolina. What do you see here in the Duke's 213 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 3: Male Bowl. 214 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: The depth chart came out for you and c on Thursday. 215 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: No scholarship tight ends freshman Connor Harrel's in at quarterback 216 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: and then portal entry Jefferson Boaz is going to suit 217 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: up and be an emergency quarterback in this case. But 218 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: wide receiver Kobe Payceauer is not on the depth chart. 219 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: That further thins out a list of experienced targets. There's 220 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: almost nothing there. Linebacker Cedric Gray is off to the NFL. 221 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: That means every linebacker is a freshman. Harold was a 222 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: three star. He was ranked the tenth best duel threat 223 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. 224 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: So we'll see. 225 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you go back to the Owen McCown for UTSA, right. 226 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he came in and he was able to 227 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: show somewhat of what Frank Harris, the playbook that Frank 228 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: Harris ran. Don't know if you know Harold's going to 229 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: be able to do that here. Now, the bread and 230 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: butter of the West Virginia offense is pretty much intact 231 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: and a man. As I talk about this, I just 232 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: think about going back to media day down in Cowboys Stadium, 233 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: down at and T Stadium, and when they released they 234 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: said West Virginia was picked dead lass in the Big twelve. 235 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 2: Well here we are. They made it all the way 236 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: to the Duke's Mayo Bowl. Really good season for them. 237 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 1: The handicap is can North Carolina stop the ground and 238 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: pound of quarterback Garrett Green, running back CJ. Donaldson, running 239 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: back Jaean White. The answer is no. The Mountaineers heavy 240 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: outside zone heavy. They run some counter and inside, and 241 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: I think that's why this handicap is. You need to 242 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: still be betting on West Virginia because when you talk 243 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: about losing Zach Fraser, yeah, that is a really big loss. 244 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: Brandon Yeates is his backup. He played forty snaps at center. 245 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: He's got hundreds at both guard positions, so it's. 246 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: Going to be new for him. 247 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 1: But keep in mind what West Virginia does almost exclusively 248 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: outside zone. They do not go over the guards, they 249 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: do not go over the center. They run directly over, 250 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: usually the left tackle. So even with full strength Vie 251 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: and see they were average success rate against outside zone. 252 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: They are one hundred and twentieth in the nation in 253 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: defensive stuff rate. I don't even think of full strength 254 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: defense from North Carolina was going to be able to 255 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: stop what the Mountaineers want to do. I would prefer 256 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: the over because West Virginia's top twenty five and explosives, 257 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 1: but I think the better bet is West Virginia on 258 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: the side because Fraser is a huge loss and he's 259 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: going to be a big NFL draft pick. But they 260 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 1: don't run over center, so they might be able to 261 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: get away with the air. 262 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think wester anything under a touchdown is the 263 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 3: side here. They I just don't think, I mean North Carolina. 264 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 3: Their offense is decimated obviously in a massive drop off 265 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 3: from Drake may down to Connor Howe. Also just just 266 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 3: signals that they don't really care about this Bowl game. 267 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 3: And Ken North Carolina stopped the run. As you said, 268 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 3: which is the bread and butter of West Virginia's offense? 269 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 3: And the answer even before you consider some of the 270 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 3: opt outs on the defensive side of the ball. You know, 271 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 3: Cedric Gray their best defender, the answer is a clear no. 272 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 3: So anything under a touchdown I think West Virginia is 273 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 3: the side. 274 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: Neil Brown goes from the hot seat to the Mayo seat. 275 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 3: Mayo Bath or Neil Brown. All right, let's move on 276 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 3: to prime time Wednesday night. Let's go to the Direct 277 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 3: TV Holiday Bowl between Louisville and usc Happy Holidays to 278 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 3: Louisville's a seven and a half point favored here under 279 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: fifty seven and a half, this game will be played 280 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 3: in sunny San Diego, California, maybe some rain I don't know. 281 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 3: I doubt it, glad whether I'd be perfect as usual 282 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 3: in San Diego. So nothing really to consider from that standpoint. 283 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 3: By the way, Direct TV sponsored this call. When I 284 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: first moved into my house a couple of years ago, 285 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 3: I tried to get Direct TV for all of my TVs. 286 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: It was the worst experience I've ever had in my life. 287 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 3: They which is why I don't have DirecTV, called them. 288 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 3: They came out and then they said, oh, you know, 289 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 3: I had too many TVs for something, so I had 290 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 3: to get like a special something, so we had to 291 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 3: send somebody else out. Then they missed the next appointment. 292 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: I called. 293 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 3: They said, sorry, rescheduled. They missed my next appointment. I 294 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 3: was like, fuck this, I'm done with you Direct TV. 295 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: So it's funny I have att direct TV. 296 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 2: I love it. 297 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 3: I couldn't get it, and I swore them off. I've 298 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 3: never had and I'm like the nicest person to like 299 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 3: customer service, and I was I couldn't do it anymore. 300 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 2: I couldn't wait. 301 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 3: They missed me two appointments. 302 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: Was a disaster. 303 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 3: Anyway, Louisville, the reason They're seven a half point favorite here. 304 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 3: Primarily it's because starting quarterback Caleb Williams will opted out. 305 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 3: You'll get Miller Moss at quarterback, also Marshaun Lloyd, they're 306 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: starting running back. Brendan Rice are starting wide receiver also 307 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 3: opted out. I'd also watched for safety Kaylen Bullock. Does 308 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 3: it really matter though, who opted out on the USC defense? 309 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 3: They had a couple defensive opt outs. Don't think it 310 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 3: really matters. Louisville had a couple defenders, you know, safety, 311 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 3: edge rusher opt out, no one too important safety camera 312 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 3: Kelly clear for the NFL draft, but he will still 313 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 3: play in the Bowl. But then it came out that 314 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 3: you are Jordan their star running back, but they still 315 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 3: have a good backup in Grendel. And then their their 316 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: number one receiver, Jamari Thrash, will miss the Bowl do 317 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 3: to declaring for the NFL Draft. It's a tough game 318 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 3: to handicap. But with I mean, USC still has some 319 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 3: talent on the offensive end, and with Thrash and Jordan 320 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 3: opting out over a touchdown feels a little rich for Louisville. 321 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 3: What do you see here? 322 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: Absolutely agree, and it took some convincing from me. Now, 323 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: starting on the defensive side, it's like Alex Crinch got fired. 324 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: They went across town, they got Danton Lynn to come 325 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: from UCLA, and then Lincoln Riley holds some sort of 326 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: press conference and says Danton Lynn is not a part 327 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: of the bowl season, he's not gonna have any effect 328 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: on this. But then there's video of him walking into us. 329 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: He's practice every single day. So I think what that 330 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: tells me is they're not going to change schemes. They're 331 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: not going to change secondary packages. But I think there's 332 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: going to be a huge increase here in what we 333 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: see from tackling a fit, which is always a problem 334 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: with USC. I think if D'Anton lenn is out there 335 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: coaching every day, maybe he's not changing schemes, but he's 336 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: definitely going to get them to tackle better because they've 337 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: been horrific. So starting off with you know, Louisville's offense, 338 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: replacing Jordan with Isaac Garndo, I mean, he really came 339 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: on strong in the second half of the season. 340 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 2: Eight he runs hard. 341 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: He runs hard, eight tds four point two yards after contact. 342 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: You know, thrash is a much replacing thrash in the 343 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: passing game is going to be a lot tougher because 344 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: no other receiver on this Louisville squad had more than 345 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: forty targets or had more than two yards per route run. 346 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: There's no juice, there's no explosiveness. 347 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he would get He would get many of their 348 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 3: explosive He also was the primary look on like a 349 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 3: you know, third and seven. He would make so many 350 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 3: key catches on key downs for them. It's a massive loss. 351 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: And I brought this up on the last podcast. When 352 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: you take away the key components of red zone and 353 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: third down touches, the offense is going to have. 354 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: A learning curve. News about this Louisville offense. 355 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: Thrash, Jordan, Jack Plumber, no one else had more than 356 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: ten touches or targets on third down the entire season. 357 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: This is going to be a real learning experience for 358 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 1: the skill positions. 359 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 2: On the Louisville side. 360 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: Now USC on offense. This is where I started to 361 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 1: say I made an initial Louisville bet because. 362 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,160 Speaker 2: I knew Caleb was going to opt. 363 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: I knew a lot of players were going to opt, 364 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: and the number would steam. Now that I've kind of 365 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: broken it down, we're getting closer, Miller Moss is going 366 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 1: to get the start. He's a USC lifer. The kid 367 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: would play there even if he'd never had any playing 368 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 1: time even stay. Austin Jones is a very experienced running back. 369 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 1: I mean we've bet on him before in previous seasons 370 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: when there's been injury. Taj Washington still in the slot, 371 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 1: zach Uri Branch still available in the slot. I mean, 372 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: these are two of the most explosive players on the 373 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: West Coast. Moss has been in the system since twenty 374 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: twenty one. He has fifty nine career passing attempts with 375 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: three tds no I INT's. 376 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: He also has provided two rushing. 377 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: Touchdowns in garbage timing against San Jose State and Nevada 378 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: this year. Louisville has been excellent coverage and passing down 379 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: success right, but they're one hundred and thirty first in allowing. 380 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 2: Explosives and passing downs. 381 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: I'm not comfortable with that original Louisville money that I 382 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: threw down on open I'm coming over the top. I 383 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: want to wait till the podcast here. You can strip 384 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: away a lot of the great players for USC on offense, 385 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: but they, I mean, they've been nailing the portal as 386 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: much as LSU has the last two years. They're loaded 387 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: and with recruiting, I mean, at least they recruit a 388 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: high level, they transfer portal to a high level, and 389 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: a half dozen games Jeff Brown has taking one loss. 390 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: So there is one thing. Jeff Brown's really good in bowls. 391 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley's only won one bowl game. But I don't 392 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: care about who wins this straight up. There is enough 393 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: talent on USC here that I think seven and a half 394 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: is way too much for this Louisville offense without their 395 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: best position skill position players that have been the only 396 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: options on third down and in the red zone. So 397 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: I'm coming in on USC here right after this podcast. 398 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, agreed, USC over a touchdown is to play there. 399 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 3: Fight on all right, Let's move to the tax at 400 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 3: Texas Bowl between Texas A and M and Oklahoma State. 401 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 3: If you're going to. 402 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: Play in tech, say you gotta have a fiddle in 403 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: the band. 404 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 3: This we played Wednesday, December twenty seventh, nine pm Eastern 405 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: text A and M two point favorite total sitting at 406 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 3: fifty three and a half. 407 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: I mean, if you read him, Texas A and M off, 408 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: we'll be here, We'll be here. 409 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 2: Until next Christmas. 410 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 3: So one, tex A and m have they have no 411 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 3: coaches left. I mean their defensive cornator got high Abou 412 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,479 Speaker 3: Syracuse will stay on, but the rest of the staff 413 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 3: is in flocks. They quarterback here's the portal, Yeah, quarterback 414 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 3: Max Johnson. Expect third string quarterback Jalen Henderson to start again. 415 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 3: The starting wide receiver Evans Stort, starting right tackle. Chase 416 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 3: pistontis starting edge for the old Diggs, starting safety Bryce Anderson, 417 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 3: starting defensive lineman Walter Nolan, starting quarterback Fevery Chappelle, starting 418 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 3: quarterback Dus Harmon's safety Jayden Jordan Gilbert. He didn't really 419 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 3: play that much. Let's see who else matters. Opt outs 420 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: Ania Smith starting receiver, starting linebacker edrind Cooper, starting defensive 421 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 3: tackle McKinley Jackson, starting right guard Laden Robinson. I mean 422 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,439 Speaker 3: they're starting quarterback Josh the very time to the end 423 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 3: of the season with injury at this team is gudded, gutted. 424 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: Let me let me, let me step in and tell 425 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: you what's left, right, I mean, let me let me 426 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: compound that and say go ahead and finish his staff. 427 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 1: Then I'll tell you what's left, because it's not good. 428 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then the staff and then Oklahoma State Ali 429 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 3: Gordon's gonna play. I thought he might not, and then 430 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 3: it's just like you pretty much just lost a couple 431 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 3: receivers and that's it. Oklahoma State and Gundhi has been 432 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 3: really good in balls. I think Oklahoma State will care here. 433 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 3: I have no idea where tex A and M is 434 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 3: at mentally and all the receivers are gone. You want 435 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 3: to attack this Oklahoma State defense with you're by throwing 436 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 3: the ball. The rundy is good and look text A 437 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: M's run defense is awesome and it's been good all year, 438 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 3: but they're all missing. So I think Gordon will have 439 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: a big day. I don't think Texas A and M's 440 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 3: offense has the personnel to attack. I think Oklahoma State 441 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 3: will care. This is all pokes akah yeah. 442 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 1: I mean Texas A and M's quarterback Jalen Henderson, and 443 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 1: he's six to one t to I in t ratio 444 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: and he just had one mistake against Mississippi State and 445 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: the LSU defenses, but he also had a full boat 446 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: of weapons to throw to. Who is now the leading 447 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: receiver on this Texas A and M team, jday Walker 448 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: forty four targets. He has six drops six twenty one 449 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 1: drops by Texas A and M the entire season. Six 450 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: of them belong to Walker, not good stonehands. I went 451 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: and read some Texas A and texagg's message boards. It 452 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: wasn't good. Look at the running backs, so Mari Daniels, 453 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: Leveon Moss, Ruben Owens. No one had more than twenty 454 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: two misstackles forced, no one's more than three yards after contact. 455 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 1: There's nothing here. There's absolutely nothing in this offense. And 456 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: the way to attack oklhom State you said is through 457 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: the air. Taxa A and M lost all their explosive pieces. 458 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: Moose Muhammad wasn't great out of the slot at full strength. 459 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: I mean, scoring was an issue for Texas A and 460 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: M before they were seventy six in the red zone 461 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: TD percentage, which makes me a little bit worried about 462 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 1: Petrino coming to Arkansas. Generally that's not a problem now 463 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: with Oklahoma State, You're right, it's all about Oli Gordon, 464 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: especially in standard. 465 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 2: Downs, Mike Gundy. 466 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: Throughout the zone read they went to man blocking schemes 467 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: this year. 468 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 2: It really paid off. Towards the middle. 469 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: They run a little bit of counter and you know 470 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: Texas A and M was excellent against zone read throughout 471 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: the season. They posted a low forty three percent success 472 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: rate against man run concepts. They can kill you on 473 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: inside zone, outside zone. They're terrible against man run concepts. 474 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: So Gordon should absolutely feast here. I mean, if he's 475 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: playing and he's healthy, and I believe Oklahoma State is 476 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: going to be highly motivated to win a game against 477 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: the SEC team. This is a revenge game for Oklahoma State. 478 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 1: They lost this very Bowl in twenty nineteen to Texas 479 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: A and M by three points. Gundhy's fantastic in Bowls 480 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: eleven and six against the spread. I've got Oklahoma State 481 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: on the money line. Numbers caved a little bit. I'm 482 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: not sure if it's going to float over to oak 483 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: State being a favorite. 484 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 2: I'm not backing down. I love I love Cowboys. Here 485 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 2: go Pokes. 486 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 3: Yep, agreed, go Pokes. Bett'll be happy with that breakdown. 487 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 3: H Yeah, I'm gonna play oloed mis State money on 488 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 3: here shortly. All right, let's move on to the Wasabi 489 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 3: Fenway Bowl. 490 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 2: Not for your sushi. 491 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: It's a it's a I think I believe that the 492 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: Data is a cloud storage company. 493 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 3: Yes, this is the dumbest bole sponsor. And there's and 494 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 3: we have a bowl with go bowling dot com, which 495 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 3: might be the worst, the worst website, but at least like, look, 496 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 3: I'm going I went to it. Maybe this is all 497 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 3: part of their master plan. We're talking about it. I'm 498 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 3: getting all these everyone who's watched this to go to 499 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 3: it was sabi. I can't think of a dumber bowl 500 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 3: sponsor because everyone just assumes it's like the root. What 501 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 3: is wasabi is a root? Right? 502 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 1: And their logo, their logo is that. And there's I mean, 503 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: what are you what are you doing? 504 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 2: Guys? No one's gonna. 505 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 3: Are inabi sab? Yeah, sabi with savvy what what do 506 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: you know that most was sabi get like a sushi 507 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 3: restaurants is not real with sabi? Do you know that 508 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 3: horse radish? Yeah, it's like over ninety seven percent of 509 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 3: was sabi served in sushi restaurants does not contain any 510 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 3: real withsabi. It's made from a blend of horse radish, 511 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 3: mustard flour, cornstarch, and green food color. And I had 512 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 3: real with sabi once and it was like not as 513 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 3: that was good spicy or pungent. 514 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 1: No, this just didn't clear your sinus didn't clear your sinuses. 515 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 3: Out, Yeah, like horse radish does, but most people don't 516 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 3: know that. But anyway, so yeah, this is not sponsored 517 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 3: by the Plant but with Sabi Fenway Bowl between Boston 518 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,719 Speaker 3: College and SMU. SMU is a ten point favorite over 519 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 3: Under forty nine and a half. This is actually a 520 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 3: bowl where there's not too many opt outs. Although SMU 521 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 3: won't have Preston Stone at quarterback again, he's out for 522 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 3: the season. Kevin Jennings will start. He did win the 523 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 3: American Championship Game at quarterback. This Boston College scene, they 524 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: finished six and six. They got over their wind total 525 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 3: for me, but it wasn't the most impressive six and sixteen. 526 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 3: Here's their wins. They beat Holy Crossed by three, They 527 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 3: beat Virginia by three, Army by three, the weird Georgia 528 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 3: Tech team by fifteen, Yukon by seven, Syracuse by seven, 529 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 3: and that's it. So they have basically all like one 530 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 3: possession wins over teams that you really wouldn't get excited about. 531 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 3: Then they beat Georgia Tech by fifteen. At Georgia Tech 532 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 3: not the best resume in the world. Offense is extremely limited. 533 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 3: They have to hit pretty much. Can they hit run explosives? 534 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 3: Here is the question for their offense with Castianos and company. 535 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 3: I'm not convinced this SMU team. I think that they'll care. 536 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 3: I mean, it is one thing. It is like sim 537 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 3: had a great season and then you're going up to 538 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:58,120 Speaker 3: this is an eleven am kick in Fenway and Boston. 539 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 3: So a bunch of Texas kids going up to Austin. 540 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 3: You won the American I think that they like. I 541 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 3: really think that SMU should have got the based on 542 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 3: strength of schedule. They should have got the New Year 543 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 3: six Bowl like they should like Playing Oregon also would 544 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 3: have been a better game. I think even without Preston Stone. 545 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 3: So there's some potential disappointment here. And it's like eleven 546 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 3: am kick, are you flat? So I can't like ten here. 547 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 3: I have a strong lean to the under. I think 548 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 3: Boston College is going to come out and try to 549 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 3: run it. I think SMU is going to try to 550 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: run it this game. Yeah, that both these teams could 551 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 3: be flat early What do you see here between SMU 552 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 3: and PC. 553 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 1: I played the under earlier this morning when I finished 554 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: up my ball my Bowl podcast notes. If you look 555 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: at the stadium orientation about what's going to happen here. 556 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 1: End zone to end zone is going to go from 557 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: home plate to Pesky's poll. Wind is going to blow 558 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: ten mile an hour crosswinds on the field towards the 559 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: Green Monster. For those of you that are baseball savvy 560 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: and know what. 561 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 2: Finway looks like. 562 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 1: The wind blows out, it's gonna make crosswinds. It's going 563 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: to be terrible on the kicking game. Seventy five percent 564 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: presip going on. Here's what's funny is we're not there yet. 565 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 1: Our next podcast, our next bowl that we're gonna talk 566 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: about is Penstripe. That number has already been beaten up 567 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: because of the weather. Well, we're not too far away 568 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: here in Fenway. They're going to have the same weather 569 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: here earlier in the day. So under is definitely a 570 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: game that I played now, definitely a bet that I made. 571 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: So sixty percent rush attack, high frequency of power. This 572 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: is for Boston College. They run sixty percent of the time. 573 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: They run power, counter man, and some inside zone. They 574 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: run a little bit of everything. SMU was tenth and 575 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 1: rushing success rate on defense. They obliterate inside zone their 576 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: average against power and counter but they're terrible against man concepts. 577 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 1: They're forty two percent success rate against it, and they 578 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: allow explosives. Is Boston College going to run that because 579 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: they run just a little bit of everything, So there's 580 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: an avenue here for them to have a little bit 581 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: of success. Now, I don't expect anything from Thomas Cascanos 582 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: throwing on the SMU secondary. The second SMU secondary has 583 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: been really good. Go to the offensive side of the 584 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: ball for SMU Kevin Jennings to get the start again 585 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: nineteen to thirty three against Tulane the ACC Championship Game. 586 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: Two big time throws, two turnover worthy plays a healthy 587 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: ten dot two average depth of target. SMU is second 588 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: nationally in pass EPA four different targets averaged more than 589 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: two yards per route run. BC plays a lot of 590 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: Cover one different than the Cover three that Kevin Jennings 591 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: saw against two lane. So with Cover one, Jennings is 592 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: going to have to beat that man coverage with those 593 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: two BC corners, which by the way, are backups. 594 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 2: So that is a. 595 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: Very interesting note there that Jennings is going to face 596 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 1: two backup corners that are going to be playing man 597 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: in Cover one out there on the outside Sossum, you 598 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: should keep the chains moving against BC with the rush 599 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: inside outside zone. They're going to stop. But the Mustangs 600 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: are not explosive whatsoever. They're one hundred and twenty first 601 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: in rush EPA, Jalen Knight, L. J. Johnson each under 602 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: three yards after contact, and the combined they only created 603 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: thirty missed tackles on the season. I thought SMU's rushing 604 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: attack was better than this. A little surprised to see 605 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: these numbers. I'm not going to play on the side 606 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: I believe with the weather and the wind and just 607 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: how BC is going to attack this. By the way, 608 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 1: you know, twenty six seconds per play not extremely fast here. 609 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: I like the under all. The way I think you 610 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: play it at forty eight is pretty key. Like what 611 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: do we saying at forty and a half or better? Yeah, 612 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: try to get forty eight. 613 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 3: So yeah, I wouldn't go below forty eight. But yeah, 614 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 3: I agree, I think under is to play all right. 615 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 3: Let's move on to the bad Boy Mower's Pinstripe Bowl. 616 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: Hey guys, it's my favorite time of year because it's 617 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 1: time for a bad boy buttude is people mowing their 618 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: law in the Bronx, Like why Is this not in 619 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: Florida anymore? 620 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, this doesn't tie up location wise, but this will 621 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 3: be played in the Bronx at Yankee Stadium. Miami versus Rutgers. 622 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 3: Miami is a goin flip here. It's a one point 623 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 3: favorite over under forty and a half. Got to pay 624 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 3: attention to weather, as we just talked about. Let's go 625 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 3: through some opt outs. Rutgers there starting tight end Johnny Lange, 626 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 3: he had season ending surgery. Their star cornerback Max Milton, 627 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 3: he opted out, and you know there's a couple other guys, 628 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 3: no one really important. Miami starting quarterback Tyler Van Dyke 629 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 3: kicked the portal. He's confirmed of Wisconsin wide receiver Colby 630 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 3: Young portal. A couple of defenders linebacker Corey Flagg, their 631 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 3: edge Jafari Harvey, and from an opt out perspective, their 632 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 3: star safety Cameron Kitchens, defensive tackle Leonard Taylor, safety James Williams. 633 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 3: You can expect ja Curry Brown to start a quarterback 634 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 3: with Emery Williams their second string. Injured Brown does have 635 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 3: he didn't get any only didn't get any experience this year, 636 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 3: but he has some experience in years past. More of 637 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 3: a runner some key defenders out on both sides that 638 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 3: still would lean to the under. Here this is but this, 639 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 3: I think this is just Rutgers all the way. There's 640 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 3: Miami care here, and there are a bunch of Miami 641 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 3: kids going up to play right in the Bronx in December. 642 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 3: They were supposed to have a much better season than this. 643 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 3: I'll also take Schiano over Crystobaul all day. It's not 644 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 3: gonna be pretty, it's going to be ugly, but I 645 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 3: think Rutgers finds a way. I like Rutgers. Yere do 646 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 3: you agree? 647 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? 648 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: It could be a one point win on a field 649 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: goal in Yankee Stadium at the end, But yes, Rutgers 650 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: all the way. Shanno five to one to one against 651 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: spread and Bulls. He is a coach who can trust 652 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: to get his team ready. More importantly, Rutgers is a 653 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: team that does not beat themselves, and I will take 654 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: that against a very mistake prone Miami team that does 655 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: not know how to take a knee. Rutgers is twelfth 656 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: and offensive offensively and havoc allowed. They don't make mistakes. 657 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: There's no passing success rate here, but there will be 658 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: methodical drives. A big advantage in offensive finishing drives. They 659 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: cash in whenever they get into scoring position. Now they're 660 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: gonna have success in mannrun concepts with Kyle Montagai versus 661 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: Miami's front seven, and the Canes were good versus inside 662 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 1: outside zone. So you know, but Miami's defensive line could 663 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: miss Leonard Taylor, the third Branson Dean both could. 664 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 2: Opt out when you switch the other side. 665 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: With Jack Curry Brown, you have to go back to 666 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two to get his stats. It's really the 667 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: only great thing about it is what he does with 668 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: inside zone. It's heavily used by the Hurricanes offense, and 669 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: that's what he likes to run. He had two hundred 670 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: and eighty four rushing yards last year, almost all off designed. 671 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: More importantly, he didn't have any fumbles, and if he 672 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: can keep that up here, then that's a big boost 673 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: to Miami. Two offensive linemen have to be replaced here. 674 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: Left guard Javan Cohen, center Matt Lee. Both are NFL 675 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: bound could sit in this game. 676 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 2: At least. 677 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: The reports I'm reading is that they're not going to play. 678 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: You're running inside zone, You're losing your center and your 679 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: left guard. That's not good. Miami and I think here's 680 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: where the handicap is. Why you're gonna bet on Rutgers. 681 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: Miami is one hundred and tenth and creating broken tackles 682 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: Rutgers is seventh, and tackle rating per PFF they are 683 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 1: second nationally and broken tackles allowed. They meet you one 684 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: on either, they meet you one on one in open field. 685 00:32:58,640 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 2: You're not getting buying. What's so? 686 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 1: However, Miami's lost ten of their last eleven bowls. I've 687 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: already told you what Shiano does in bowls. Rutgers all 688 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: the way here, and like Fenway, Weather's a big factor. 689 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: So I think the number at forty one. Forty one 690 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: is one of the biggest key numbers in all of 691 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: college football totals. So you can't talk me into forty 692 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: and a half. But I'm just happy playing Rutgers here. 693 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: Don't need anything on the total. 694 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the Pop Tarts Bowl, Yes, 695 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 3: between Kansas State and NC State. This game of play 696 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 3: in Orlando, Florida. Kansas State two and a half point 697 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 3: favorite over under forty seven and a half. 698 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: There's a mascot kind of like the blooming onion right 699 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: down in the Outback Bowl. But apparently at the end 700 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: of the game, you can eat the mascot. 701 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 2: Look at that sweet frosting and filling. That's what makes 702 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 2: pop tarts such a great snack. 703 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: I sure hope we get eat in soon. 704 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 2: We willa. 705 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: So that brings me to my question to you, stuck, 706 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: what is your favorite pop tart flavor? 707 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 3: Hota? So pop tarts? HOA, there's too much crust, so 708 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 3: I always break I'm a crust breakoff guy, so I 709 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 3: will break off all the end crust. I respect people 710 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 3: that will say traditional, what is the traditional? Strawberry? Is 711 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 3: that what it is? But the best by far to me? 712 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm a I'm a chocolate guy, but the 713 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 3: smores s'mores is my favorite pop dart. 714 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I am a frosted strawberry guy. Blueberry. I'll pivot 715 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 2: off to. 716 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 1: But I have to say I lost forty pounds last 717 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: off season, and a big part of my diet was 718 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: that I save pop tart minis next to my night 719 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: stand every night. That was my one dessert every night 720 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: that I counted into my daily chart. 721 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 2: Have you had those before? The little minis? 722 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 4: Have not? 723 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: Oh my god, go find your Yeah, it's in the 724 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: snack aisle. But now it's just a little bag. It's 725 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: maybe got like eight little minis in there. And I 726 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: don't know what you're gonna do about peeling the crust off, 727 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,760 Speaker 1: because if they're so small. But that's got my vote. 728 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: There the frosts of minis pop tart and. 729 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 3: Do you do you? 730 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 2: Did you heat them up? That was no? 731 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 1: You know, I went, I went straight out of the bag. 732 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: I don't know these people like them warm, you know, 733 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 1: get them a little bit soft? 734 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 2: Do you do it soft? 735 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: I don't. I just go straight at it. I can't 736 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: wait that long. I can't wait thirty seconds. 737 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would eat them. I just eat them regular. 738 00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: What are they gonna do with this live mascot? They're 739 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: gonna throw him in a microwave. 740 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,919 Speaker 3: It's can't be live. You can't eat a lot. Wait, 741 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 3: so it's probably made a pop tart and then you 742 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 3: eat the outside of him. 743 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: I guess is he's still in the suit and you're 744 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: eating on a live. 745 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 3: Or is he made of pop tart one big pop tart? 746 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 3: Or does he have just like pop tarts glued to him? 747 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 3: He's like eat himself out of the outfit, crazing. 748 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,479 Speaker 2: I think we're getting into a weird area here all. 749 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 3: Right, So KANDAS State here this candas State is a 750 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 3: shell unit. Opt outs. Wide receiver Philip Brooks one of 751 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 3: their best, their best tight end Benson both opted out. 752 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,800 Speaker 3: They're starting defensive tackle Samoa. He is injured. He's on crutches. 753 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 3: In the finale. They lost their you know, they're starting 754 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 3: linebacker Jay Clifton in week eleven. They already lost their 755 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 3: middle linebacker Daniel Green and his backup earlier in the season. 756 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 3: Starting quarterback Will Howard portal Avery Johnson should start more 757 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 3: of a runner. Got some experience this year. Running back 758 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 3: Trey shaun Ward, starting safety Kobe Savage, starting cornerback Will Lee, 759 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 3: edge Nate Matt Lack. So they are kind of a 760 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 3: match unit. NC State had some opt outs. No one 761 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:11,760 Speaker 3: really important. You know, the starting nose tackle CJ. Clark, 762 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 3: he matters a bit, and you know wide receiver Porter Rooks, 763 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 3: wide receiver Tarld Timms, but no one too important. Peyton 764 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 3: Wilson one of the best linebackers in the country. He's 765 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:26,359 Speaker 3: going to the NFL. He's playing from playing. Yeah, so 766 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 3: that's a good sign for NC State. N c's I 767 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 3: love NC State. It was one of my favorite boll bets. 768 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 3: This is a team that quietly even though they had 769 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 3: the quarterback drama, so MJ. Morris hit the quarter, hit 770 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 3: the portal. Brendan Armstrong came back as the starter. Here's 771 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 3: how they ended the year after all that happened. They 772 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,879 Speaker 3: beat Clemson and they they beat Miami by fourteen. Then 773 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 3: they beat Wake by twenty, beat back at VA Tech, 774 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 3: then they beat North Carolina by twenty. This is a 775 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 3: team that ended the season on fire. I think they 776 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 3: really care getting NC State getting ten wins for Dave 777 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 3: dor And is super important. They were supposed to get 778 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 3: there when they had a bowl in the COVID year 779 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 3: against UCLA and it got canceled. Uselay didn't want to play. 780 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 3: They are highly motivated. I know some people close to 781 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 3: the program. I love NC State here. I think they 782 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 3: win this game Kansas State. Meanwhile, they're on the other 783 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 3: end of the spectrum if you look, I mean, yes, 784 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 3: they barely beat Kansas but then they they were embarrassed 785 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 3: at home by Iowa State. As the team that was 786 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 3: in the Big Twelve, they were Big Twelve champions last year, 787 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 3: had bigger aspirations in this I think NC State comes 788 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 3: out fired up. Kansas State also lost their offensive coordinator. 789 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,959 Speaker 3: All these opt outs signal signal to me they don't 790 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 3: really care. They're not gonna be able to run the 791 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 3: ball in NC State. I love the wolf back here. 792 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, something lit a fire under NC State's ass and 793 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,919 Speaker 1: Dave dor In and it possibly could have been Steve 794 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 1: Smith calling them a basketball school and that they didn't care. 795 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: At NC State, unfortunately, they're waiting for basketball to start. 796 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 3: Tell Steve Smith in the studio, this ain't a basketball school. 797 00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 2: Even kissing my ass. 798 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: You're right, shell unit is what we got here for 799 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: Kansas State. Avery Johnson's going to get the start. I 800 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: remember the five touchdowns that he posted against Texas Tech 801 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: in week seven and we were ready to bet him. 802 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 1: He hasn't had a touchdown since. Looks like the book 803 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 1: is out on him from a running perspective and the 804 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 1: offense that they're in, he hasn't. 805 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:18,240 Speaker 2: Really done anything. 806 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: But now he's going to take the quarterback position here. 807 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: He's lost all of his weapons at Ben sent it 808 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: at tight end. Phil Brooks shout out to see him punk. 809 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 1: It's his real name, but it's not the same guy. 810 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: Cooper Bebe would be a big loss if he's out. 811 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: Hadley Panzer did get one hundred and fifteen snaps at 812 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,800 Speaker 1: left guard this season, but it's a massive downgrade on 813 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: the offensive line. Kansas State runs power man inside zone 814 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff, but NC State meets national average 815 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,760 Speaker 1: and success rate in all of those. They dominate opponents 816 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 1: that run man blocking run schemes. That's what Kansas State's 817 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 1: gonna run, and ncay State's gonna get that with Peyton 818 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,839 Speaker 1: Wilson there, It's it's going to be tough sledding here 819 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: for this Kansas State offense. When you flip to the 820 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: other side, I guess, I guess is this a farewell 821 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: to Brendan Armstrong? The scramble score offensity likes to run. 822 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 1: You know, it's going to be a huge rushing game 823 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: against the Kansas State defensive line that's missing Armstrong. Over 824 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: six hundred rushing yards on the season. Half of that 825 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,240 Speaker 1: is split between scrambles and designed runs. Amazingly, I couldn't 826 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: believe this. Brendon Armstrong only had two fumbles this year. 827 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 1: He had nineteen in his career coming in here. No 828 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: real advantages in terms of you know, season long numbers 829 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 1: with zone read for Nacay State against the Kansas State defense. 830 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 1: But still, like we said, it's a shell unit, it's 831 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: going to be a little bit different in success rate. 832 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: Armstrong was pretty fantastic in Cover one, but I don't 833 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: expect a lot of passing in this game. Big tackle 834 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: discrepancy here, NC State sixth Kansas State one hundred. 835 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 2: And twenty fifth. 836 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: Big special teams advantage here for ncis State twelfth per 837 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: SP plus ninety fourth in Kansas State. There's way too 838 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: many advantages here for NC State wolf Pack. 839 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 2: All the way, let's go. 840 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, optimist Klein gone, optimist client Colin 841 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: Klein no longer the offensive. 842 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 2: Coordinator Kansas State. 843 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 3: Yep, love love the wolf back here in the Pop 844 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 3: Cards Bowl. So hopefully you can watch Dave Dorn and 845 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 3: Brendan Armstrong eat the mascot at the end of the game. 846 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the Final Bowl on Thursday night, 847 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 3: nine to fifteen Eastern between Arizona and Oklahoma in the 848 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 3: Valero Alamo Bile in San Antonio, Texas. Arizona three point 849 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,439 Speaker 3: favorite here over under sixty too and a half. One 850 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 3: of my favorite balls I'm looking forward to. These are 851 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 3: two really good teams. There's not like you know for 852 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 3: good teams, there's not too many outouts there. Arizona's left 853 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 3: tackle Jordan Morgan, it was a stud he opted out. 854 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 3: You could see Jacob cowing. Jedfish said, there's one to 855 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 3: two players that might opt out. Morgan is one. Maybe 856 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 3: you see another receiver. Other than that. Arizona's gonna have 857 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 3: its full roster bay care It's a huge game for 858 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 3: them to get the ten wins, big bounce back season Oklahoma. Meanwhile, 859 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 3: they won't have their offensive coordinator. Jeff Levy took a 860 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 3: head coach job Atssissippi State. Did you see him on 861 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 3: she was on shoulders getting paraded around or no that 862 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 3: the ada was getting paraded around for that higher Did 863 00:40:59,320 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 3: you see that? 864 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 2: Oh? Holy cow? 865 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,360 Speaker 3: They had cow bells. He was getting off the plane 866 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 3: and they were They had them on their shoulders carrying 867 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 3: them around. 868 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: Has anybody shown Mississippi State their scheduled next year? I 869 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: get every somebody off, they'll be off the shoulders. 870 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:13,959 Speaker 2: Yeah. 871 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 3: I mean, good for Levy forgetting he's getting paid. H 872 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 3: He also added in his contract he has some incentives 873 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 3: for I think a national title. Good luck really so, 874 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 3: uh transfer portal for Oklahoma, Dyan Gabriel to Oregon, which 875 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 3: means Jack's and Arnold highly prized recruit. I believe that's 876 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 3: probably why Gabriel at the portal they Okahoma was probably said, look, 877 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 3: we gotta we gotta go to the Arnold next year 878 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 3: and eventually, plus Gabriel go to Oregon, probably get a 879 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 3: fat or check a couple of running backs. In the 880 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 3: portal for Oklahoma. The most important news their star linebacker 881 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 3: Danny Stuts been, and they're starting safety Billy Bima and 882 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 3: anounced over come back for twenty twenty four, So I 883 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 3: think that they'll care. Oklahoma cares here. They do have 884 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 3: a bunch of offensive linemen out. They're starting tackled Tyler Geiden, 885 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 3: They're starting center Andrew Rain, a couple other you know, 886 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 3: Caden Green their left guard. So their offensive line could 887 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 3: be compromised here, but they usually recruit well in that department. 888 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 3: I played Arizona early. I will tell you and I'll 889 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 3: let you break this down. Everyone knows I'm on Arizona 890 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,439 Speaker 3: here similar to Miama, Ohio. I'm higher than the entire 891 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 3: world on Arizona. I will say that I believe that 892 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 3: there's gonna be some sharp money coming on Oklahoma. So 893 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 3: if you haven't bet Arizona yet and you want to 894 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 3: ride with me, it's at three. I think it probably 895 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 3: closes like two two and a half, maybe one and 896 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 3: a half, So I would wait on Arizona. I think 897 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 3: it's at the peak of the market now, but I 898 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,839 Speaker 3: think Arizona wins. But I think Arizona wins every week. 899 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 3: So I'll let you break it down. What do you 900 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 3: see here? 901 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:52,439 Speaker 1: Well, I'm going to be on Oklahoma and I wanted 902 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 1: to wait till this podcast before I a put cash 903 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,280 Speaker 1: down be told you about it, see how to suffer 904 00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: your wrath of going against Arizona and the other thing that. 905 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 3: I'd still be coming. So get ready December twenty eighth, Thursday. 906 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: And you know what I also hate is I have 907 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 1: a direct flight to Phoenix to spend some Christmas time 908 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: with family during this game before I head off to 909 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 1: the Rose Bowl. 910 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 2: So I'm really sad. 911 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna miss Well you can you can when you land, 912 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 3: You'll have a bunch of sweet notifications from that of 913 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 3: jet Jet Jet fish pictures. 914 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. He was asked an interview a couple of days ago, 915 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: like why haven't you left for another job? And he's like, 916 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: I'm committed to all these players, So we'll see if 917 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,320 Speaker 1: you know, he's like they committed to me, I'm committed 918 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 1: to them. Let's start off with the Arizona offense. Elite 919 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 1: success rate in this offense from Noah Fafida, Arizona's passing 920 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 1: was highly successful, highly explosive. It doesn't matter the covers, 921 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: cover three, cover one quarters, all of them. Oh you 922 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: was actually pretty highly successful in all those coverages, landed 923 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: inside the top twenty five and preventing explosive pass explosives. 924 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: So it's a true good on good matchup when Arizona 925 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 1: goes up against OUs D. Danny Stutsman being back is 926 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 1: really big because remember the handicap on the SOU defenses. 927 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: He's not just the captain for Brent Vittibles, he's also 928 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 1: the one that misses the least amount of tackles. Like 929 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: everybody else on this defense is about twenty percent mistackles, 930 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: Danny Stutsman's about eight. The one true OU defender that 931 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 1: they have to have on the field, he's going to 932 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 1: be there. There's no real gotcha in the splits from 933 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,240 Speaker 1: Fafida from a turnover worthy play with his depth of pass, 934 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: his depth of his average depth of target pressures. I 935 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: tried to split and know if a FETA to figure out, like, 936 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: is there a way you can pressure him? No, it's 937 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 1: the same split. So what about his depth target twenty 938 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: yards nine yards? No, it's all the same. I mean, 939 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 1: this game is truly you know the skill positions of 940 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 1: McMillan Coleman. I mean, this is going to be a 941 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 1: true test for the Oklahoma defense, But the fact that 942 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: Stutsman there makes it a lot better for OU. When 943 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 1: you flip over the OU offensive side, I just don't 944 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 1: see a downgrade to Jackson Arnold, even in a game 945 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 1: where he has little experience. And Seth Latrell is in 946 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: there calling Jeff Levi's old offense. There's a lot of 947 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,320 Speaker 1: skill here. Gavin Sawchuk's going to play wide receiver, Drake Stoops, 948 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 1: Jaleil Farup, Nick Anderson. They're all available, They're all explosive 949 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 1: for this OU defense. Now, left guard Caden Green is 950 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 1: in the portal, but back up Troy Ever got two 951 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 1: hundred and forty seven snaps at left guard, so no 952 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 1: loss there. Now, right tackle Tyler Goeyton knopped it out, 953 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: but Jacob Sexton at two hundred and four snaps at 954 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 1: right tackle now center Andrew raynot rom really leaves a 955 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 1: hole there because Troy Everett, who I already mentioned at 956 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 1: left guard, he played sixty snaps at center. 957 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,720 Speaker 2: So we do have one loss on the offensive line. 958 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 2: But I just don't see this. 959 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 1: Really hurting what ou does on offense, and seth Lerchell 960 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,360 Speaker 1: has said, I'm not putting my flavor of this offense 961 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 1: on Jeff Levey's offense until we get to the spring. 962 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: Arizona struggled to defend the rush this season, specifically a 963 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,919 Speaker 1: very low forty one percent success rate against inside zone, 964 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: which is the majority of all of Oklahoma's rushing attempts. 965 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 1: Oklahoma was seventh, and quality drives thirteenth, and offensive finishing drives. 966 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: I'm not faulting Arizona here whatsoever. I don't think there's 967 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,919 Speaker 1: a big drop off in Oklahoma here. I think Danny 968 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 1: Stutsman is the big difference maker on defense. Oklahoma is 969 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 1: the far better team and preventing explosives. I'll take the 970 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: Sooners and the points. 971 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 3: All right head to head there. Let's move on to Friday. 972 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 3: It's our final day. We'll cover the four bowls on Friday. 973 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 3: Let's start with the tax Slayer. Man, we got a 974 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,760 Speaker 3: lot of tat. We have a tax Act Tax Slayer 975 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:17,439 Speaker 3: Gator Bowl. 976 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: Damn bit my hand, Oh my god. 977 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 3: Gator Bowl between Clemson and Kentucky. Clemson four and a 978 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 3: half point favorite here down from where they opened a 979 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 3: touchdown total forty six and a half skin will be 980 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 3: played in Jacksonville, Florida. Well, let's go through news. Clems 981 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,400 Speaker 3: will be about four of its better defenders. Starting safety 982 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 3: Andrew mccouba hit the portal. He's a good one. Cornerback 983 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 3: Nate Wiggins opted out, linebacker Jeremiah Trotter opted out, and 984 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 3: their defensive lineman Rooke Oro Horro opted out. Defensive tackle 985 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 3: Tyler Davis. He's also one to watch as a potential 986 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,399 Speaker 3: opt out. Kentucky, you lose your starting edge keeping Waite. 987 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 3: Other than that, you know Ray Davis to clever the 988 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 3: NFL draft as the cornerback filps. But they said they'll 989 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 3: both play in the bowl. That's that's good news for Kentucky. 990 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 3: Singles that they do care. Everything that I've everyone I've 991 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 3: talked to says that they care. Dabo has been really 992 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 3: good in bulls. The way you want to beat this 993 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,839 Speaker 3: Kentucky defense is through the air. Boe Collins also, their 994 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 3: wide receiver also hit the portal. I don't know if 995 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 3: Clemson's capable of doing that. Will Kentucky have success on offense? 996 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:27,880 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. II Leen Kentucky in the under in 997 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 3: this game. What do you see here between Kentucky and Clemson. 998 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 1: Got a bunch of Bowman University Chrome cards that are 999 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: autographed by Cade Clubnick. I wish that he had the 1000 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: passing game to get this done, but I just don't 1001 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,840 Speaker 1: see it happening. Ray Davis playing in this game is huge. 1002 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: It's the only piece of the Kentucky offense that was 1003 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: really needed because the offensive line is going to be 1004 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 1: there for Kentucky eleventh and rush explosives. They produced three 1005 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 1: explosives in the final game against Louisville's rush D, which 1006 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: really doesn't allow them. Kentucky's most explosive run package is 1007 00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: counter and man concepts. Clemson was awful against man blocking 1008 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 1: run concepts forty three percent success rate and stopping it. 1009 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 2: They allowed it. 1010 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 1: They allowed a positive EPA, which means that there's an 1011 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 1: explosive play just waiting. So now they have to replace 1012 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 1: thirty seven stops with linebacker Jermiah Trotter. Now, a stop 1013 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 1: is defined by PFF as a complete failure by the offense. 1014 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,240 Speaker 1: Jermiah Trotter not only had thirty seven of them, nobody 1015 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: else on the team was higher than twenty six, which 1016 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 1: was Barrett Carter, and nobody else was even close to 1017 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 1: Barrett Carter. So the fact that you lost Jemiah Trotter 1018 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 1: and Bray Davis is coming at you with explosives in 1019 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: a run concept that you can't defend. That is the 1020 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:42,279 Speaker 1: reason that this line has moved. You're right, Clemson's only 1021 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: way to attack this Kentucky defense is through the air. 1022 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,359 Speaker 1: Don't see it happening. Yes, film Off is there, Will 1023 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 1: Shipley's there. They're gonna have success running outside zone. Don't 1024 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 1: think it's enough here. 1025 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,799 Speaker 2: Kentucky in the points yep. 1026 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 3: I clearly great Cats all the way. All right, let's 1027 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 3: move on to this game is a disaster, Tony. The 1028 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 3: Tiger sun Bowl between Oregon State Notre Dame. I talked 1029 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 3: about the two thousand and eight Sun Bowl the other 1030 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 3: day that ended three to nothing. I think that was 1031 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 3: between Oregon State Mike Relly was there. I wouldn't be 1032 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 3: surprised this ended three nothing Oregon State Notre Dame. Notre 1033 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 3: Dame is a six and a half point favorite, totals 1034 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 3: forty one and a half. This game will be played 1035 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 3: in beautiful El Paso, out in the. 1036 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: West Dixon town of past. 1037 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 3: I mean Oregon State staff is shaken up, same with 1038 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 3: Notre Dames. Oregon State out without their starting quarterback. Their 1039 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,839 Speaker 3: backup quarterback Ben Goldberdson will get the start. He did 1040 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 3: start the final eight games to twenty twenty two. You 1041 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 3: know their stud starting linebacker, their brothers, and they're stud 1042 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:49,319 Speaker 3: starting safety, the Arnold brothers. They're out. Cornerback McCoy is out, 1043 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 3: their tight end Jack Bailing is out. They're even their 1044 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 3: starting kicker opted out, Devan. They all hit the portal 1045 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 3: and then their their stud wide receiver Anthony Gold he 1046 00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:00,399 Speaker 3: opted out. Starting right tackle Flagga he opted it out. 1047 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,959 Speaker 3: They're starting left tackle and left guard and both missed 1048 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 3: the finale with injuries. Damian Martinez are starting running back. 1049 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 3: He was gonna play in the Bowl and he was 1050 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 3: not because he was arrested. Then they said he was, 1051 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 3: then now they said he's not. I mean, so they're 1052 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 3: without a ton of I'm a ton of starters Notre 1053 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 3: Dame without you know, they lost their offensive coordinator. They're 1054 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 3: without oh Man, I mean their quarterback Sam Hartman. They're 1055 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 3: starting their stud starting linebacker, both their starting tackles, they 1056 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 3: all opted out their running back estimate Cam hart their 1057 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:36,480 Speaker 3: star cornerback. I you know, they had some injuries at 1058 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 3: tight end and offensive line. They're transfer portal all their receivers. Basically, 1059 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 3: they're starting center. I mean they're starting safety. This this 1060 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:48,320 Speaker 3: goes on and on and on. These are two mass units. 1061 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 3: I don't I don't think. I don't see how Notre 1062 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 3: Dame can get to like more than twenty. I don't 1063 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:56,320 Speaker 3: know a work in state's really gonna score. I'm probably 1064 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 3: playing the under here. I can't capt this game. What 1065 00:50:59,200 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 3: do you see here? 1066 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 1: Well, you got me curious, and now I'm searching to 1067 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,680 Speaker 1: see if there's a no TD prop, which I would 1068 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,720 Speaker 1: absolutely take here, Like I there's a exact score thirteen 1069 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: to six, eighty to one prop. I mean, you've got 1070 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 1: me so interested. Now I want to find a no 1071 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 1: TD prop on this game that might be the best 1072 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 1: bet here. 1073 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 2: Because I had a hard time trying to decipher what 1074 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 2: we're going to do. What I'm that's it. 1075 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 3: I'm heard for no points. 1076 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I look, I don't know what to tell everybody 1077 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: because we're missing so many layers of players here. You know, 1078 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 1: keifense heidens Henson is going to be the He's the 1079 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 1: old passing game coordinator for Oregon State. He's been in 1080 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,800 Speaker 1: the program since twenty eighteen, so as a passing game cordner, 1081 00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: he knows the best parts have been Gilbertson. I would 1082 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,839 Speaker 1: expect they pass more than they run, and Oregon State 1083 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: is a running team, so plenty of snaps will be 1084 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 1: missing from the offensive line. You would think that they're 1085 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 1: teaching Goldbernson how to get rid of the ball quickly. 1086 00:51:58,040 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 2: Who he's getting it off to. I have no clue. 1087 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,720 Speaker 1: Notre Dame was fifteenth and havoc, although they are missing 1088 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: just about everybody. On top of all the portal and 1089 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 1: opt out news of Notre Dame, Nicol Thomas Harper opted 1090 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 1: out and publicly never told anybody like it was just 1091 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 1: I just found that article like it was published like 1092 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 1: a day ago. So if Thomas Harper, who's the fifth 1093 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 1: leading tackler on this Notre Dame team is quietly not 1094 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: telling anybody that he's opting out. How many other players 1095 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:26,279 Speaker 1: are opting out of this for Notre Dame. And by 1096 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,239 Speaker 1: the way, what the hell is going on at Notre Dame, 1097 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 1: I think is a bigger question. We can talk on 1098 00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 1: the offseason backupster playing both sides. 1099 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 2: Of the ball. 1100 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 1: I would take if I had to pick a side, 1101 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:37,840 Speaker 1: let's say, and you're some sort of pick a pool 1102 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 1: and I know they're out there that you can wait 1103 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 1: till the last second take it, I would do Notre Dame. 1104 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: Just based upon program recruiting, program depth. I think if 1105 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: you had to take a side, it's going to be 1106 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. But I agree with Stuck. I there could 1107 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 1: be a problem with touchdowns here. There could be a 1108 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 1: problems with scoring. If you just want to lay the 1109 00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:58,840 Speaker 1: underlay the under, that's great. But I think I'm going 1110 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: to go crazy in this game. A couple of crazy props, 1111 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 1: a no TV prop, maybe like a final score of 1112 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 1: like nine to three, thirteen to three, Like I'm gonna 1113 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 1: find something that is completely long shot. Try to enjoy 1114 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: this game somehow, because the players on the field are 1115 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 1: not going to give you the satisfaction of enjoying college 1116 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 1: football game because it is bear. 1117 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, try to get above. I wouldn't go below forty one. 1118 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,439 Speaker 3: And That's what we talked about earlier. But I'm gonna 1119 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 3: play under here. 1120 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 1: All right. 1121 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 3: Let's move on to Friday. Later Friday afternoon, Memphis, Iowa 1122 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:37,440 Speaker 3: State in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. So we played Memphis Tennessee. 1123 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 3: Noteworthy because it's on Memphis home Field Stadium and Simmons 1124 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 3: Bank Liberty Stadium. Iowa States up to a ten point 1125 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,920 Speaker 3: favorite here over under fifty seven and a half. Memphis 1126 00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 3: does play at home, but it's not too far from Memes. 1127 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 3: Iowa States fans travel well, so I don't think it's 1128 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 3: gonna be like this overwhelming crowd advantage here. Memphis I 1129 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 3: talked about all year. They finished nine and three. They 1130 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,879 Speaker 3: were pretty fraudulent. I mean, they barely beat Maybe They 1131 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,719 Speaker 3: beat Boise State by three at home thanks to a 1132 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 3: block field goal return. They beat UAB, They barely beat 1133 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 3: North Texas on a last minute touchdown. They beat South 1134 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:18,799 Speaker 3: Florida fifty nine to fifty. They beat Charlotte in overtime, 1135 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 3: So you know, this is a team that skated buys 1136 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,440 Speaker 3: some battues. The defense is really bad. They will give 1137 00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 3: up explosives, which is what Iowa State relies on. Memphis 1138 00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 3: also is gonna be about a couple starting offensive linemen. 1139 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:31,240 Speaker 2: They can't tackle. 1140 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, they can't tackle Iowa State. It's just they're gonna score. 1141 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 3: I think they'll care. But I just can't get to 1142 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 3: this number. I can't like ten. I can't beat in Memphis. 1143 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 3: I think that this is one where I'll probably sit 1144 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 3: on the sidelines. Score. What do you see here? 1145 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 2: What do you got? 1146 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 1: I like Iowa State, and I know it seems like 1147 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 1: a really large number. I power rate this game to 1148 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:52,799 Speaker 1: be I always say minus nine versus Memphis if it 1149 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 1: was played during the regular season, I guess if you 1150 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,040 Speaker 1: were to throw in home field advantage. Although I agree 1151 00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 1: with you, people from the state of Iowa travel like 1152 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:02,960 Speaker 1: no other. 1153 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what the sport is. They travel. 1154 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 1: So seth And again is going to face a three 1155 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 1: three five stack defense of Iowa State. He saw the 1156 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: three three five a lot. 1157 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 3: And by the way, I should say before you go, 1158 00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 3: Memphis can't really run the ball, which is really how 1159 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,359 Speaker 3: you kind of want to attack this Iowa State team. 1160 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: So good, yep, yeah, I mean, Hennigan was average against 1161 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 1: the three three five He's going to go up against 1162 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 1: exclusive quarters here. He wasn't fantastic against that either. 1163 00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:27,240 Speaker 2: What he saw in conference. 1164 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 1: Play, I would argue this is a way better three 1165 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: three five version and quarters version anything that he. 1166 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 2: Saw in the AAC. 1167 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:36,759 Speaker 1: The loss of TJ. Tampa is pretty big for the 1168 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 1: Iowa State secondary. One of the best defensive backs in 1169 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 1: all of college football. So we'll see what Iowa State 1170 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 1: does there. But you know, Iowa State will not be 1171 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 1: able to produce a pass rush that hasn't been in 1172 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 1: their numbers all season, but that's not really how they 1173 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 1: play on defense anyways. Zone read option of Hennigan with 1174 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 1: Blake Watson, they were above average and success rate. Ioways 1175 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,839 Speaker 1: struggled a little bit to defend inside zone explosives were 1176 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 1: a wash when it came to Memphis's offense versus Iowa 1177 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 1: State's defense. So I just don't see a lot happening 1178 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,279 Speaker 1: here for Memphis. And when you mentioned being fraudulent their 1179 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 1: second order win total, they're gonna take one of the 1180 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 1: biggest downgrades in the offseason in my power ratings. Now 1181 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 1: rock O Beck, quarterback for Iowa State. He was better 1182 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 1: than expected this year. I mean, you think about the 1183 00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:21,439 Speaker 1: gambling scandal that happened, and everybody pounded on the under 1184 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 1: of a win total. 1185 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 2: That was like five. 1186 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,359 Speaker 1: Rock O Beck is just man, just a cool, nice 1187 00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 1: fresh drink of water. There for that offense, Beck creates 1188 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,040 Speaker 1: a lot of explosives. He has the best standard downs, 1189 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 1: expected points explosives in the country. I couldn't believe it. 1190 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,800 Speaker 1: Memphis also runs a three three five with cover one. 1191 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 1: Beck averaged an explosive pass. This is a crazy stat. 1192 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 1: Beck averaged an explosive pass on twenty five percent of 1193 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,680 Speaker 1: attempts against cover one. One of every four pass attempts 1194 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 1: against cover one was an explosive. That's what he's going 1195 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: to see against Memphis. So slot jaaln Noel whiteout Jayden Higgins. 1196 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 1: They leading targets on the team, the Cyclones. They both 1197 00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:01,280 Speaker 1: averaged more than two point six yards per route run. 1198 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 1: That is extremely explosive. Give me Iowa State. I'll swallow 1199 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:09,479 Speaker 1: the points here. Love them go Clones. All right, let's 1200 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 1: go to our final bowl here. That will cover It's 1201 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 1: our twelfth and final bowl in Part three. Cover the 1202 00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 1: rest on Part four, including the playoff that will be 1203 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 1: out Thursday. 1204 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,040 Speaker 3: I'll keep you guys updated. Plenty of time to get 1205 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 3: prepared for the final nine bowls, but we have one 1206 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 3: other one to get to content the cover Live the 1207 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 3: Cotton Bowl, the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic between Missouri and 1208 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 3: Ohio State Ohio State. This game is basically down to 1209 00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 3: quin flip total forty eight and a half. So we 1210 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 3: played in Arlington, Texas. Ohio State's taken some buy back. 1211 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 3: It looks like some players will play that were you know, 1212 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 3: some people said thought, including myself, that might not play. 1213 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 3: Still going to have many more opt outs on Ohio 1214 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 3: State side compared to Missouri. And you're also going to 1215 00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 3: be down to Devin Brown at quarterback. I'm not a 1216 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:14,960 Speaker 3: fan of Devin Brown. I love this Missouri team. We've 1217 00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:19,200 Speaker 3: talked about this game at length already. We bet this 1218 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:21,920 Speaker 3: on the open at a pick. I'd still about Missouri 1219 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 3: right now. I think Missouri wins this game. Any updated 1220 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 3: thoughts on this one? Where the line is if you 1221 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 3: want to share any matchup edges, any news? What do 1222 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 3: you see here? 1223 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:35,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean this is a situation where Missouri is 1224 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 1: on a crescendo. 1225 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 2: They are progressing. 1226 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 1: Up and up, and up and don't I don't see 1227 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,680 Speaker 1: that stopping in this game. You know, I'm not backing 1228 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 1: down from what I said earlier, which is this is 1229 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: the biggest financial position I have in all the ball season. 1230 00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,840 Speaker 2: I would take Missouri up to three. Uh there. 1231 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a better combination at quarterback, running 1232 00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 1: back and wide receiver then you're gonna get from Brady 1233 00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 1: Cook and Cody Schran and wide receiver Luther Burden. We 1234 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 1: already podcast about Georgia State, the fact that Marcus Carroll 1235 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: is coming in. Eli Drinkwitz is making some news. They're 1236 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,720 Speaker 1: making some rumbles here, So no, no updated thoughts, But 1237 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 1: I mean from a perspect. 1238 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 3: Off, flat neck playoff next year. 1239 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go ahead and just get that out of 1240 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:17,800 Speaker 1: the way. 1241 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 2: I'll say this and I won't say it again. 1242 00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: You're just going to see a bet come in the 1243 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 1: app after the national championship game. I am going to 1244 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 1: bet Missouri to make the twelve team playoff, and if 1245 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 1: that problem doesn't exist, I'll just take a long shot 1246 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,720 Speaker 1: on the national title. What they are doing in the 1247 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 1: transfer portal and from a recruiting perspective, and they pulled 1248 00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: the softest SEC schedule. 1249 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:38,600 Speaker 2: By a mile next year. 1250 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,680 Speaker 1: I know it sounds crazy, but Missouri is going to 1251 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,680 Speaker 1: shake up all of college football next year, So Missouri 1252 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:47,919 Speaker 1: futures for the next year. For this game, I would 1253 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,480 Speaker 1: take it up to three. I'll have a full ride 1254 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 1: up here on Action Network about this game, covering every 1255 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: angle that I possibly can. Once we get closer to 1256 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 1: the game and we know exactly who's in for Ohio State, 1257 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 1: whether Flemings in, Flemmings out, whether you know, we'll have 1258 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 1: a complete list of who's going to be there, and 1259 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:06,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to do my best in the ride up 1260 01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:08,720 Speaker 1: to find out why you would want to bet Ohio State. 1261 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 1: Odds makers are going to move this number, you know, 1262 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: until they get resistance. Everybody's going to try to buy 1263 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:14,760 Speaker 1: back on Missouri. 1264 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 2: I suspect this thing. 1265 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 1: We'll get up to three, and we'll have heavy Ohio 1266 01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:19,919 Speaker 1: State money come in at that point, just because people 1267 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 1: will say. 1268 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 2: The Buckeyes are a dog of the Missouri Tigers. Get 1269 01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 2: used to the New world. 1270 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 1: Everybody the Missouri Tigers are for real, and every single 1271 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,080 Speaker 1: that the fact that they lost by nine at Georgia, 1272 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 1: they probably should have. 1273 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 2: Won that game. 1274 01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 1: So pull right up on Action Network, Missouri up to three. 1275 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,160 Speaker 1: Keep your eyes peeled out for the national title. That 1276 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:39,720 Speaker 1: is the team that I want desperately. 1277 01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:44,160 Speaker 3: Yep, I agree, Missouri all the way, Go Tigers. Those 1278 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 3: are the twelve Bowl games broken down between Wednesday, December 1279 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:53,880 Speaker 3: twenty seventh and Friday, December twenty ninth. Let's go three 1280 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 3: and out. We'll do a quick three and out. 1281 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 1: Let's make it a quick three and out. 1282 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 3: All right, first down, let's do favorite favorite. I don't 1283 01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 3: want to give that Arizona, so I think that's gonna 1284 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 3: come down, So I'm gonna go. I'll go West Virginia 1285 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,040 Speaker 3: anything under a touchdown. Not sure where North Carolina cares. 1286 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 3: West Virginia should be able to run the ball on 1287 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 3: North Carolina. That should be enough to get it done. 1288 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 3: Give me the ears. How about you a favorite favorite? 1289 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 1: It's an amazing how many dogs I like. I'm gonna 1290 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:27,600 Speaker 1: have to make a decision here between Iowa State and 1291 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. I will go with Virginia Tech. I think 1292 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 1: Tulane is a complete walking Syracuse, which we used to 1293 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 1: call a corpse. Not much going on here, coaching staff gone, 1294 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: all the player's gone. Justinibita Beta might be the quarterback here. 1295 01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: We're really struggling to find replacement players on this two 1296 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:49,480 Speaker 1: lane team that's going through major changes. Virginia Tech pass explosives, 1297 01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech on the ground, They're gonna get it done here. 1298 01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 1: Take the hookies in the military ball. 1299 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 3: Second down, we'll go favorite underdog. I'm gonna throw out 1300 01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 3: you know my underdogs that I do like. I like 1301 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 3: USC me too. I like Oklahoma State, but my one 1302 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 3: of my favorite Bowl bats like Kentucky. One of my 1303 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 3: favorite Bowl bats is NC State and this Kansas State 1304 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 3: team that it's off, it's going on. It just a shell, 1305 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,919 Speaker 3: you know, losing key pieces on offense and defense. Don't 1306 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 3: think if they able to run the ball, don't think 1307 01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 3: they to throw the ball. N C State upward trending 1308 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:28,480 Speaker 3: this team team, I know that cares. They want that 1309 01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 3: tenth win. Motivational edge for NC State. I like the 1310 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:33,920 Speaker 3: wolf Pack. How about you a favorite underdog? 1311 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 1: Well, I mean I could go Missouri, but that could 1312 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: be a favorite here soon I could go Rutgers could 1313 01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 1: be a favorite. By kick, let's go with you as 1314 01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 1: c to win outright. Louisville is missing their most explosive 1315 01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,440 Speaker 1: and most used player at running back and wide receiver. 1316 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:53,920 Speaker 1: They have nobody to throw to. They have nobody to 1317 01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,040 Speaker 1: hand the ball off to. I'll revert to what I 1318 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:56,959 Speaker 1: said earlier. 1319 01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 2: In the podcast. 1320 01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 1: Nobody on this team on offense has more than ten 1321 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:03,360 Speaker 1: targets or ten touches on third down or in the 1322 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:06,919 Speaker 1: red zone on the entire Cardinals squad. Because of opt 1323 01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 1: outs in the NFL, because of NFL opt outs, and 1324 01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 1: because of the transfer portal, this is going to be 1325 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 1: an offensive struggle. That's not the problem that USC has. 1326 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,840 Speaker 1: They are loaded with talent. No matter how many players 1327 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 1: get into the portal or how many players opt out 1328 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:22,440 Speaker 1: for the NFL, they are still loaded with two of 1329 01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:24,720 Speaker 1: the best players in the nation in the slot, from TODJ. 1330 01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 1: Washington to Zachariah Branch Miller. Moss has been at quarterback 1331 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 1: at this He's been in the system forever. He knows 1332 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:32,880 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley's system and can run it. Plus, you look 1333 01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 1: on defense, I think there's going to be a massive 1334 01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 1: improvement in tackling here. I'm not saying their schemes are good. 1335 01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 1: I'm not saying their blitzing is good. But with Deanton 1336 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 1: Lynn coming over from UCLA and attending every single one 1337 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 1: of USC's practices. I think the fundamentals are going to 1338 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: be better from a tackling perspective. 1339 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:50,479 Speaker 2: Give me a USC not just to cover the seven 1340 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:52,480 Speaker 2: and a half. I think they can be Littleville outright. 1341 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't shock me either. And for third down, let's 1342 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:00,960 Speaker 3: go favor total. I'm gonna go with the Oregon State 1343 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:03,760 Speaker 3: and Entre Dame Sun Bowl under. I don't know how 1344 01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 3: either team scores this game. The game is a disaster. 1345 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:08,720 Speaker 3: You need a way to bet it. It's the under total. 1346 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go SMU Boston College Fenway. 1347 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:14,560 Speaker 1: You know the fact that the field goes from home 1348 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 1: play to Pesky's Pole and the wind is going to 1349 01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:18,720 Speaker 1: blow two offenses. I think you're going to be a 1350 01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:21,360 Speaker 1: little bit struggling here. We got backup quarterbacks. We've got 1351 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:24,440 Speaker 1: a Boston College team with Thomas Caslanos can't throw the ball. 1352 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: Give me the under here in the Fenway the with 1353 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 1: Sabi Fenway Bowl. 1354 01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:31,919 Speaker 3: All right, good stuff. Twelve bowls that I'm sure most 1355 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 3: of you will be betting after Christmas. We still have 1356 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:37,800 Speaker 3: the most important ones to get to, which we will 1357 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:42,200 Speaker 3: in Part four.
