It's been a good 11 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: bowl start for the podcast and for me. One of 12 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: the biggest I was on Tulane. Sadly that's just gonna happen. 13 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: Ty Thompson was so bad, oh man. The actual collegeball 14 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: playoff games a bit of a snoozer. Shouldn't even say 15 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 1: a bit big snooze fest. Every favorite, every home team covered. 16 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: Clemson gave a Texas backers a little bit of scarily, 17 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: a lot of big big teas they got down with 18 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 1: the goal line and then they got another chance to 19 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: get in the back door. Other than that, very boring 20 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: just commentary after every game this team shouldn't have been 21 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: in This team shouldn't have been In the end, it 22 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: was just a home teams that dominated Ohio State, Texas, 23 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: Penn State, and Notre Dame. Any quick thoughts colin. 24 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 2: Full game Fever catch it. 25 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 3: I theorized on this podcast and I think a couple 26 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: of other platforms, and even in writing that I was 27 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 3: worried that the first round being played in home stadiums 28 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 3: would replicate the FCS playoffs, And if people are not 29 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 3: familiar with what that is, that is home team's throwing 30 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 3: up fifty burgers on teams and the travel, with the 31 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 3: weather and the environment is probably a little bit of 32 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 3: a shock to the system. And then, you know, I 33 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: think the bad one for me was I had to 34 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 3: take a shot on an underdog somewhere. The one that 35 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 3: I picked was Tennessee absolutely did not show up. But overall, 36 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 3: take this as a betting deliverable for next year. Home 37 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 3: field advantage was way more than the book makers made 38 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 3: up for, and it replicated the FCS playoffs and what 39 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 3: Brett told us on our latest show that there could 40 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: be more home playoff games in the playoff and the 41 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 3: futures to come. Let's just keep in mind what happened 42 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four. 43 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: The expansion's fine. The teams that got interfine. Yeah, there's 44 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: been plenty of blowouts, so many blots in the first 45 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: round in past non expansive colletuall playoffs. It's just gonna 46 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: happen sometimes. 47 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 4: Hey stuck, Sorry to interrupt before we proceeded the first game. 48 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 4: A quick message from longtime listener and Ohio State super 49 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 4: fan Martin from Florida. 50 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 5: All Right, listen, mother, this better get played. We're not 51 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 5: talking about little games here. We're talking about the big 52 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 5: Mother here. First of all, Marry Christmas, filthy and animals. 53 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 6: Listen. 54 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 5: The objective was accomplished tonight. We got a ways to go. 55 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 5: We have a ways to go. However, what you saw 56 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 5: tonight was a glimmer of hope and a sea of darkness. 57 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 5: And I'm I'm damned proud of those kids, how they 58 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 5: stood up to the hate. I mean for me too, 59 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 5: and absolutely put a see Michael Myers on those high 60 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 5: school babysitters tonight. This is what I'm talking about from 61 00:03:54,560 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 5: our boys. We do this. We will win the national chip. 62 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 5: I'll be get of a great Christmas. Nothing but love, 63 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 5: Oh age. 64 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: Let's get into these bowl games. Let's start with the 65 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: game above Sports Bowl. 66 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: The game above Sports Bowl, by the. 67 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: Way, Game above, I don't I have no idea. Do 68 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: you know what Game above is? 69 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: This used to be the Quick Laying Bowl in Detroit, 70 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 3: So I. 71 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: This sounds like like a Ponzi scheme. I don't even 72 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: know what it is. 73 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: I know it's not you think it's the Bitcoin St. 74 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 3: Pete Bowl. 75 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 1: Here's what. Game Above is a brand rooted in philanthropy, 76 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: dedicated to inspiring greatness through sports, entertainment and youth academies. 77 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: Initially supported by devoted group of alumni, focus on supporting 78 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: Eastern Michigan University and it's community through Game above. Getting 79 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. 80 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 3: Gys got some what is going on in the gypsy? 81 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: But five thirty Eastern ESPN pitt is a six and 82 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: a half point favorite. Here this game we played ford 83 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: Field Fast Track in Detroit, Michigan. Total fifty one and 84 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: a half. If you're going to Detroit, Rocos Deli for 85 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: sandwiches seldom standard for a nice meal, and our producer 86 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: says dive bar, you gotta go to his jumbos, which 87 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: looks like a true dive. Bar can't say I've ever been. 88 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: When I look at this matchup, there are questions with 89 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: Pitt and their quarterback Eli hol Steam, whether or not 90 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: I'll be healthy enough to go. If he can't go, 91 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna be third string David Lynch because Yarnell, who 92 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: played when he was hurt, is in the portal. These 93 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: are you know, we're actually gonna talk about Georgia TA 94 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,119 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt as well in this episode. Those are two teams 95 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: I wanted to bet on in ball season. Was so 96 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: disappointed that was a matchup. It's kind of like when 97 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: the NCAA tournament bracket comes out and you get two 98 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: mid majors that you wanted to bet on and they 99 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: would get matched up against. So these are two teams 100 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: that wanted to fade. I've just been lowing them all 101 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: year long. 102 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 3: So the coaches are two and four against the spread 103 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 3: and two and five between Ourdoozy and Candle. They have 104 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 3: not shown up in bull season either. 105 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, and when I look at the matchup, Toledo is 106 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: incapable of running the ball. I mean they are bottom 107 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: of the barrel rush offense. But you can't run on 108 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: Pitt so except you know, they get up some run 109 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: explosives aggressive defense. Toledo doesn't event any explosiveness in the 110 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: run game, so you're not really neutralizing anything that Toledo does. 111 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: You have to beat Pitt through the air, and you 112 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: have to hit explosives through the air against their quarters, 113 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: aggressive corners on the outside as well. That's pretty much 114 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: all Toledo can do on offense. They have a good 115 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: group of receivers, a quarterback who's way up and down. 116 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: If you get bad gleas in here, Toledo is gonna 117 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: get blown out. 118 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 3: Get good, huge, horrible, Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry. 119 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: If you get good Gleason, they can hit some explosive plays, 120 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: I expect. You know, the question is kind of block enough? 121 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: Can they give them time? Both of these quarterbacks are 122 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: very poor under pressure. And both of these quarterbacks, if 123 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: you look Hosting seventeen touchdown, seven interceptions, but thirteen big 124 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: time throws, twenty turnover worthy plays. Gleason twenty two touchdown, 125 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: seven receptions, but ten big time throws, fifteen turnover worthy plays. 126 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if there's a number of turnovers here. 127 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: There's you know, some havoc minded defense and some offenses 128 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: that can give up havoc. A couple areas where Pitt 129 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: might have an advantage. Special teams good there all year, 130 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: Toledo has not, and then Pitt has been much better 131 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: finishing drives off with touchdowns than Toledo. Part of that 132 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: is Pitt has more options to score because Ledo can't 133 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: run the ball and the field shrinks. Their offense just 134 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: takes a dive. That said, you know, two teams. I 135 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: want to fade. There's questions whether or not hosting will play. 136 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: I'd be inclined just to take the points, but this 137 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: isn't a bowl game. I feel strongly about what you 138 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: see here. 139 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, to me, this is I mentioned on the last 140 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 3: podcast what we do when we have this kind of 141 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 3: makeup with two teams. And so you know, you mentioned 142 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 3: Tucker Gleason and you mentioned his td to and t 143 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 3: versus his big time throw to turnover worthy play ratio. 144 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 3: Do not get fooled by that twenty two to seven 145 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 3: touchdown to interceptions. He is not good with pressure. In 146 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 3: one hundred and four attempts, He's had two big time 147 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 3: throws and seven turnover worthy plays. Pitts havoc and lineyards 148 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 3: are top twenty, their top five, and tackles for loss 149 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 3: or seventeenth in PBUs. I mean, this is a really 150 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 3: bad look for Toledo here and I don't expect a 151 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 3: lot of points, especially like if Alan Jones doesn't go 152 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 3: at left tackle. Steven Gales did have three hundred and 153 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 3: thirty one snaps at the position, but he did not 154 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 3: grade out very well. I don't see much of anything 155 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 3: coming out of Toledo, and when you go to the 156 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 3: other side, it looks like we're going to get David 157 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 3: Lynch probably is the quarterback red shirt freshman. If Eli 158 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 3: whole Steam cannot go six to nine for forty six 159 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 3: yards and an I int he comes from the IMG Academy. 160 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 3: But you know what is this offense for Pittsburgh. We 161 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 3: are one hundred and twenty sixth and havoc allowed. You know, 162 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 3: Hoole Steam was two point nine seconds per release. That 163 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 3: is extremely long. He took twenty one sacks from one 164 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty one pressures. I don't see David Lynch 165 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 3: surviving a offensive line and our offensive period. It's one 166 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty sixth and havoc allowed. You know, in 167 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: Toledo's defense is only one of a dozen teams that 168 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 3: not allow a fifty yard run this season. I was 169 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 3: actually shocked by that stuck. There's only like, I think 170 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 3: twelve teams that haven't allowed a fifty yard run. Well, 171 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: Toledo's one of them, and they're fourth in the nation 172 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 3: allowing thirty plus yard rush games. So when you put 173 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 3: all this together, the fact that Pitt can't protect any 174 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 3: quarterback no matter who's under center, the fact that Toledo 175 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 3: has no avenue to score here, and we may have 176 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 3: new faces and new pieces on both sides of the offense, 177 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: it's a first half under because right we've seen these 178 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,599 Speaker 3: offenses come out in these bowl games. They don't know 179 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 3: who they are, or they haven't worked together in a 180 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 3: live situation. I took a first half under on the 181 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 3: twenty six, kind of waffling on the fifty one. You know, 182 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: nothing's shown up here in the market. I will also say, 183 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 3: just go look at first halves in the first game 184 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: the day after Christmas. It's a shit show of offense. 185 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 3: So first half under here for me. 186 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: I don't mind that. 187 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 3: I'll say I don't mind tempo. I know fast tempo. 188 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 3: It scares me. 189 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: Fast temp on a fast track. I don't mind taking 190 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: a shot on Toledo money line. I just think there's 191 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: a lot of variants to pick quarterback situation. I think 192 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: there could be some turnovers. I think if Toledo's hitting 193 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: those explosives with their receivers, then they're going to have 194 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: a shot to win this game. And the Toledo defense 195 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: is solid. It's not as good as last year. But 196 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: you know, if you look, this is a team bad offense. 197 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: They just have to hit the explosives like they're very 198 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: inefficient offense outside the top one hundred and both off 199 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: both rushing and passing success rates inside the top forty 200 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: in both on defense, So big difference there. So yeah, 201 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:23,719 Speaker 1: I don't. He also pits the leading receiver opted out Mumfield. Yeah, 202 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 1: not in a game. I feel stronger though that. 203 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, he spent half his snaps a slot and wide out. 204 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 3: So it's a huge loss. It's not just one position 205 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 3: I got to fill. It's a lot. 206 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 5: All right. 207 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: Let's move on to the Rate Bowl. If you don't 208 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: bet on a bowl as the bowl even. 209 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 2: Exist, the Rate Bowl. 210 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: This used to be the Guaranteed Rate Bowl. They are 211 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: apparently rebranding, so it's just the Rate Bowl. 212 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 3: Was this the Cactus and Motel six? I got to 213 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 3: look that up. 214 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: I don't know which one this was. This is nine 215 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: Eastern on ESPN, Rutgers, Kansas State in Phoenix, Arizona. If 216 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: you're going to Phoenix, a follower says, you got to 217 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: go to Scottsdale and go to Chelsea's Kitchen for the 218 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: vibes and it's good place. A couple other people co 219 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: signed on that. Kennastate six and a half win favorite 220 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: total fifty and a half. Shato has been very solid 221 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: in Bowls six and two at Rutgers. Says he learned 222 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 1: from Paterno when he was a young coach how to 223 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: prepare for bolls. Paterno was always very good in bowl 224 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 1: games at Chris Common. By the way, I think he's 225 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: two and two in bowls at Kansas State. Was talking 226 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: a little bit about there's a little bit of insight. 227 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:42,719 Speaker 1: I think every coach is going to be different. Every 228 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: situation is different. But he was saying the time between 229 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: the end of the season and the bowl game set 230 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: he's done seventy percent of it on roster construction, which 231 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: means like a Portal recruiting thirty percent on prep for Rutgers. Well, 232 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: like some news here, it looks like everyone on Rutgers 233 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: is going to play. I mean their cornerback Robert Longerbeam 234 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: his Instagram story. I take that as he's going to play. 235 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: Same with their safety Shack Loyal. Left tackle Holland Pierce 236 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: still an unknown. Kyle Mnong Guy said discussions are still 237 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: on going, but he did make the trip. He was 238 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: there based on his Instagram. Tiring Pale, their linebacker, said 239 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 1: discussions are still on going, so there's a couple questions. 240 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: They did have some injuries at the end of the 241 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: Rego season which are worth monitoring. All of these all 242 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: updated in my file. But they're starting corner Eric Rodgers, 243 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: starting DN Aaron Lewis, and starting safety Bibe no Soon. 244 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: They didn't play in the finale. Rutgers also won't have 245 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator for the bowl game. Kansas State. 246 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 3: Before you go there, Hallan Pierce had left tackle is 247 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: a huge watch. There's only twenty four snaps that went 248 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 3: to any other linement to left tackle, so eight hundred 249 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: and fifty snaps for Holland Pierce. Big piece YEP. 250 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: Kansas State will be without wide receiver Kegan Johnson. They 251 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: were starting right tackle Calarra Willis, and then they're running 252 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: back Giddins, who declared for the NFL Draft. You got 253 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: to hit explosives on this Kansas State d The problem 254 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: is Rutgers bottom twenty explosiveness on offense. You can't really 255 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: run on Kansas State. You have to beat them through 256 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: the air. Ken Rutgers do that consistently. I do know Rutgers. 257 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: They won't beat it. They won't beat themselves right with field. 258 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: They'll have good field position. They won't beat themselves with 259 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: turnovers or penalties. You can run on Rutgers, which does 260 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: worry me. Against Davy Johnson, you might see his legs 261 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: unleashed here and the Kansas State backfield, even if they 262 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: won't have Giddins, what are you seeing here in this game? 263 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I took Rutgers. I mean you mentioned the avenue 264 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 3: for Kansas State to score some points. I think I 265 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 3: want to start real quick with how does Rutgers score points? 266 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 3: Because when you look at their overall offensive numbers, it's 267 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 3: like this is just three yards per rush and a 268 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 3: cloud of dust and hopefully we get a first down 269 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 3: on the fourth. You know, if mon Guy opts out, 270 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 3: we got Antoine Raymond even get the nod. He was 271 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 3: less potent from a mistackles yards after first contact perspective. 272 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 3: But really I'm keeping an eye on that offensive line. 273 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: Want to see who's going to show up there at 274 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 3: left tackle. The Kansas A D you know, second and 275 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 3: defensive rushing success rate top ten and defensive stuff rate, 276 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: but you mentioned it Rutgers for some reason, despite lacking 277 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 3: in success rate and EPA, their fourth in havoc allowed 278 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 3: and their thirteenth in offensive momentum killer, which means they 279 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 3: don't stop themselves. Ever, most disciplined offense in the nation. 280 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: I think if you look at eight and caliak manis 281 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 3: same turnover worthy play rate is last year when he 282 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 3: was at Minnesota, but when you look at what he's 283 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 3: done against pressure, that's where you see a huge increase 284 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 3: in his production. Last year six point eight percent turnover 285 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 3: worthy play rate with Minnesota when he had pressure. This 286 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 3: year that's been cut in half down to three point 287 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 3: eight percent, and Kansas State is one hundred and six. 288 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 3: And pass rush, they've had a problem creating a pass 289 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 3: rush all season. So not that this is an explosive 290 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 3: pass offense or anything even worth mentioning. But at least 291 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 3: caliak manis is gonna have an avenue to have clear 292 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 3: windows to row into, because you know, Kansas State is 293 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: not very good at creating contested catches either. But I 294 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 3: have to be kind of mean to Athan calliak Man 295 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 3: is one hundred and seventeenth in on target rate. He 296 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: has not been the most accurate. But this is, like 297 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 3: you said, a very disciplined offense and you will get 298 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 3: your points out of Rutgers. Now, when you mentioned what's 299 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 3: is Avery Johnson the only avenue to rush exposive and 300 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 3: that can that take advantage of the Rutgers defense. You 301 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 3: have to go through and find a couple mobile quarterbacks 302 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 3: on the Rutgers schedule. It was actually kind of hard 303 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 3: to find. It seems like they played a lot of 304 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 3: statues and conference play. Billy Edwards seven rushes for twenty 305 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 3: eight yards for Maryland, Kyn Drones nine rushes for six 306 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 3: yards out of Virginia Tech. Those are respectable numbers. And 307 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 3: when you take out DJ Giddens out of here, I 308 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 3: mean they're going to run zone read power counter concepts 309 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 3: with climbing. Everything's just going to be on the table. 310 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 3: But Dylan Edwards not good this year, I mean nothing 311 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 3: compared to what he was at Colorado. He's not had 312 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 3: a TD since Week seven against Colorado. He's only created 313 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 3: fifteen missed tackles this season. So Johnson is just the 314 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 3: whole show. And you think that Rutgers defense. Oh, by 315 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 3: the way, defensive coordinator for Rutgers, Joe Harris Simiak not 316 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 3: going to be with the team. And Schiatto would not 317 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 3: say he would name a play caller in his presser, 318 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 3: but we all know it's him calling the plays on defense. 319 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 3: So I think covering Avery Johnson and putting a spy 320 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,199 Speaker 3: or two spies on him is going to be the 321 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 3: plan here. He did have Avery Johnson did have four 322 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 3: explosives over the last two games against since the in 323 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 3: Iowa State, So I would suspect that that's who gets 324 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 3: the spy. Kansas State is not going to be able 325 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,479 Speaker 3: to force havoc on the Rutgers offense. The Rutgers offense 326 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 3: is going to play a clean game. I took them 327 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 3: plus seven. I'd still take him at plus six and 328 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 3: a half. 329 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's dog or nothing here. I think 330 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: also from a care perspective, This probably means more to Rutgers, yeah, 331 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: in their program than Kansas State. I mean, Kansas State 332 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: had higher aspiration, so where was the care level for 333 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: the Bowl preparation? And judging from I mean, they're gonna 334 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: be without as I mentioned out their starting corner as 335 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: well in this game. It looks like this could change. 336 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: But everything I'm seeing is the potential opt outs for 337 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: Rutgers are like I'm posting on Instagram that they're like 338 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: excited to play in this game, So that could be 339 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: some signal here. So yeah, I don't love the matchup, 340 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,719 Speaker 1: but I think it's dog or nothing here with Rutgers 341 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: Kansas State not a game that I love. 342 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 3: Let's count on Seano is an elite bull coach. You 343 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 3: mentioned it off the top, so that's definitely worth considering 344 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 3: this time of year for sure. 345 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 1: Let's move on to the sixty eight Ventures Bowl nine 346 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: pm Eastern ESPN on Thursday night between Arkansas State and 347 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: Bowling Green. 348 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 4: Please enjoy this actual sixty eight Ventures commercial I found 349 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 4: looking back. 350 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 6: Our life is just an accumulation of the moments that 351 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 6: we have. Until you learn to love the pain, embrace 352 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 6: the suck, you just love the difficult path. Life is 353 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 6: not gonna be that for Philly. I love risks, the 354 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 6: game of chas. That's what makes me feel a wile. 355 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 6: It's not supposed to be easy. 356 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 3: How you do anything is how you do everything. 357 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 2: The sixty eight Ventures Bowl. 358 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: This game will take place in Mobile, Alabama. You gotta 359 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: get breakfast at Ruby Slipper and then go get a 360 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: drink watch a game at Haley's Bar if you're in Mobile. Currently, 361 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: Bowling Green's seven and a half point favorite. Total fifty 362 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: two and a half. All right, so I like Bowling 363 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: Green in this game, even at seven and a half. 364 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: Obviously you'd like to better at seven or lower. I 365 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: think that there's a chance they blow out Arkansas State. 366 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: Arkansas State is the worst Bowl team they I mean 367 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: maybe Western Michigan, but Arkansas State. Just from a power 368 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: ratings perspective, this team somehow won seven games. They went 369 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: seven and five with five blowout losses. I know they 370 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: cut up to eight against Oldaminion. They're down twenty and 371 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 1: Old de Minion was on its third string quarterback. Here's 372 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: who they beat, Central Arkansas by three. Should have lost 373 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: that game. Tulsa by four. South Alabama by two, that's 374 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: the only Bowl team they beat. They blew out Southern Myths. 375 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: That's they're one convincing win. They beat Troy by three 376 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: on the last second touchdown. They beat Georgia State by seven, 377 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: ULM by seven. Seven wins. One came against the bowl 378 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: team six the other six were teams on powered to 379 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 1: outside the top one hundred, and they were plus eight 380 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: in turnover margin in those games. You cannot get luckier 381 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: than what Arkansas State did to get to Bowl eligibility. 382 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: Were they did? They finish the luckiest team in terms 383 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 1: of second order wins. 384 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 3: I mean, I give me a half second, I'll catch 385 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 3: up with it. Yeah they have I think they did. Yeah, 386 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,479 Speaker 3: I remember us talking about this. 387 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: They had to have been like, yeah, two and a 388 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: half wins or something. 389 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 3: Three point eight is the different I'm sorry, three point 390 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 3: two second order win total. 391 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: Three point two is they were really like a three 392 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: point eight win team. 393 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 3: They should have been three point eight wins this year. 394 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: That's insane. And then Bowling Green I think was actually 395 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 1: a solid team. I think that they're I've'm power rated 396 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: right with Ohio now at the end of the season, 397 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: which is pretty crazy to say, since how low I 398 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: was on Ohio. Arc State will be without their starting corner. 399 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: Can I for a second sure. 400 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 3: Nearly the most unlucky team in second order to win 401 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 3: total Bowling Green should have been an eight point four 402 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 3: minus one point four should have been a eight point 403 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 3: four win team. This is this is the second order 404 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: win Total. 405 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: Bowl, second order win total Bowl. Yeah. I love Bowling 406 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: Green here from a they Bowling Green does have a 407 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: few more starters out. They're gonna be without their running 408 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: back Stewart, their right tackle, and the all three of 409 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 1: these players were All MAC First Team All MAC Right 410 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: tackle Bolshoger is going to Kentucky, and then their linebacker 411 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: sip Harold Fan and then our State's just gonna be 412 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: without their starting corner Dante Joyner. Looks like everybody else 413 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: will play. Harold Fannen, the stud tight end, one of 414 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: the best in the country. He won the Conference Player 415 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 1: of the Year, first ever tight end to do that. 416 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: I believe he's gonna play Arkansas State, which has a 417 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: dreadful defense. They can't cover, they can't tackle, Their safeties 418 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: are really bad. I don't know how they cover him. 419 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: And we just saw Pat Conroy, the tight end for 420 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: ODU the thirte and quarterback go for four for ninety 421 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: for two touchdowns. So I think Bowling Green's acide and 422 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: and by the way, artists say, can't really run it 423 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: and you can't throw in Bowling Green, and I believe 424 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: a Loodokan's gonna play their star corner. But Fannin props, well, 425 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: I don't know when they're gonna come out. He needs 426 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: eleven yards and he needs twelve catches to set the 427 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: single season reck for a tight end. 428 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 3: Yep. 429 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: Now, I think they're gonna try to go for it 430 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: twelve and obviously he's gonna get eleven yards, but twelve catches, Yeah, 431 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: I think he can get it. And he had twelve 432 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: for one to ninety three against ODU, get eleven for 433 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 1: one thirty seven against Penn State. He's capable of doing 434 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: it in Arkansas State can't cover him. So I think 435 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: it's Bowling Green, and I'm gonna be looking for all 436 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: of the in fanin reception props. I don't think maybe 437 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: yards will be inflated, but I think that they're going 438 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: to try to get him just many easy looks. I 439 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't even hate the yards. I don't think they're gonna 440 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: tackle him. I think he's gonna break a couple. So 441 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: fanin props and BG, are you integrants. 442 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 3: Well, let's talk about that, Harold Fan and Proper real quick. 443 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 3: If you look at the last three games against Western 444 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 3: Michigan Ball State in Miami, Ohio three absolutely the highest 445 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 3: target share rate in the last game of season. It's 446 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 3: my how he ended with twelve, eleven, and sixteen targets 447 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 3: in those last three games. I think Bowling Green has 448 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 3: been pushing for this for a long time. So you 449 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 3: were on the nose there Arkansas State when you said 450 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 3: that they're bad at defense. I think what you meant 451 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 3: is they're the worst. Because they are. They are dead 452 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 3: last and standard down success rate. If Bowling Green is 453 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 3: not sitting on second and four every single drive, I 454 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 3: would be a little bit shocked here. I know the 455 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 3: number has steamed. I got Bowling Green minus six on 456 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 3: the open That was with Terry and Stewart quote tweeting 457 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: his teammates the running back saying, do you guys care 458 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,360 Speaker 3: if I join you? This is a collective effort from 459 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 3: Bowling Green to come out and do as much damage 460 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 3: as they can. Now there are you know, right tackle 461 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 3: Alex Wolscheger. He signed with Kentucky. So there's seventy seventy 462 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 3: seven hundred and seventy three snaps it'll be missing, So 463 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 3: a little bit of a position of concern, especially there's 464 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 3: minimal experience at the second string right tackle. But that, 465 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 3: like I said, I'm not sure that's really going to 466 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 3: stop against this Arkansas State. 467 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 1: The bowing is a concern that not great. Now let'll 468 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: be missing their at their best, but Arkansas State really 469 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:09,959 Speaker 1: take advantage. 470 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 3: I can't even tell everybody, like the screen I'm staring 471 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 3: at with how much Arkansas State is near dead last 472 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 3: and every single defensive analytic possible. And now you've lost 473 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 3: probably your best corn, you have lost your best corner 474 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 3: and Dante Joyn her highest graded coverage defender through six 475 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 3: hundred ninety four snaps. With an already horrible Arkansas State secondary, 476 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 3: Scotle Offler needs to get off the couch here, get 477 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 3: off the toilet. Zero to two against the spread and 478 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 3: bowl games. Butch Jones is five and two against the spread, 479 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 3: so Scott Offler could use one here. Butch Jones mentioned 480 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 3: I think two days ago, I am ramping up my 481 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 3: portal visits over the next ten days, I am more 482 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 3: interested in the future of our program, and this is 483 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 3: a real balancing act with the Bowl. And I was 484 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 3: just like, well, I've already hit six. I think I 485 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 3: needed seven. Half my need to hit eight. I needed 486 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 3: to probably. I mean that that that's the kind of comments. 487 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 3: And considering what Harold Fannin's trying to do, Terry and 488 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 3: Stewart wanted to play instead of leaving the program. You know, 489 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 3: Fanning's going to go up against a covered unit of 490 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 3: the ranks one hundred and seventeenth per PFF. He's going 491 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 3: to get a slot corner and justin Parks that's been 492 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,959 Speaker 3: targeted forty four times this year, allowed thirty four catches. 493 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 3: I mean, there's just nobody. 494 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: No one's covering Harold read. 495 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 3: What's covering them. And then Terry and Stewart that inside zone. 496 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: I don't think to play by the way he might. 497 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,360 Speaker 3: You think he'll sit even though he said. 498 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: He signed with another team. So I don't know, Yeah, 499 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: I think, you. 500 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 3: Know, I'm not going to go into the Arkansas State offense. 501 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 3: I mean, they have a respectable they have some numbers 502 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 3: that they can get with maybe I mean kind of 503 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 3: mid FBS and EPAU Jayalen Rainer. 504 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: They have some talent receiver, but the big secondary is legit. Yeah. 505 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, but they're going to have to make some tackles 506 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,719 Speaker 3: because Zach Wallace, the running back in Jalen Rainer are 507 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 3: going to run that inside zone and Bowling Green is 508 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 3: respectable about a fifty two percent success rate. Where I 509 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 3: get worried about this number is that Bowling Green against 510 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 3: inside zone has given up an explosive sixteen percent of attempts. 511 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 3: That is really high. You want to be about an 512 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 3: average of eight percent big play rate. So there is 513 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 3: a chance at Arkansas State is going to rip a 514 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,880 Speaker 3: couple with inside zone with Rainer and Wallace. That would 515 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 3: be my worry. But other than that, it maybe the 516 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 3: fan and props are bigger than the side that you 517 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 3: have on Bowling Green. 518 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:19,919 Speaker 1: That's gonna be fun trying to root him to get 519 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: twelve catches too. All right, let's move on to Friday. 520 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 1: Kick things off noon Eastern on ESPN with the Lockey 521 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: Martin Armed Forces Bowl between Oklahoma and Navy. 522 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 3: That's a good thing. 523 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 2: The Armed Forces Bowl Fort Worth. 524 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: If you're there, Panthers City for barbecue, Oklahoma is down 525 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: down to a let me check the updated board, get 526 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 1: down to a three point favorite total forty three and 527 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: a half. This was an easy click for me. Bet Navy. 528 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: Now bet Navy money line. If you're gonna bet, it's 529 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 1: Service Academy to a bowl as a dog, and I'm 530 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: gonna bet these almost every single time. 531 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 4: That's good. 532 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: Seventy percent against the spread, north of seventy percent against 533 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: it's nineteen ninety good since twenty thirteen, Service Academies fifteen 534 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: and three straight up and against the spread. Good, that's 535 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: good fifteen and three, seven and two straight up against 536 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: Power four teams over that span. 537 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 3: It's not like, oh, everything's great. 538 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: No, everything ain't great, but you know what. 539 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 2: That's good? 540 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: Why are they so successful? One? You know they're going 541 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: to show up a lot of these bowls are about motivation. 542 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: Service academies are always going to show up. Two, they 543 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: run a unique offense. Do teams want to spend the 544 00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: holidays and bowl the time off preparing really vigorously for 545 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: the triple option? Probably not big preparation edge for Navy. Two. 546 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: Navy's not worried about the portal and all this other stuff. Oklahoma, 547 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: That's all that they're doing. Their staff is doing and 548 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: they've hired new offensive coordinator. They're in the portal trying 549 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: to build the roster for next year. I doubt that 550 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: they're spending a ton of time on Navy. 551 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 3: Look, if there's anybody that would like to tap out 552 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 3: it made it wants to leave, I'll escort what you 553 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 3: do at the door right now. 554 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: Now, Oklahoma, they did hire Ben Arbalkozerci, but he won't 555 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: be part of Bowl preparations. Joe John Finley will continue 556 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: to call plays and the offensive staff will be retained 557 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: for this Bowl. Jo John Finnay, I mean they were 558 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: basically like a triple option tap down the stract, but 559 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: Jackson Arnold won't be playing. But I assume they're going 560 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: to just try to run a lot with Michael Hawkins. 561 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: There are a ton of guys in the portal for 562 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: Oklahoma and they're not going to play. 563 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 3: It's a work in progress. 564 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: We're under construction. All of their receivers, Brenan Thompson, JJ Hester, Farrouke, 565 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: Nick Anders and Angel Anthony, a lot of them are hurt, 566 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: but they're not going to play. Their tight end, Bower Sharp, 567 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: he's not gonna play. A couple of their corners are 568 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: out they're running back. Javontey Barnes looks like he's not 569 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: gonna play if Dean Burks doesn't play, so I don't 570 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: know if he's gonna be healthy enough to play. He 571 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: is on the depth chart. If he can't play, The 572 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: top eight options at receiver are freshmen, so I don't 573 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: think oclone's gonna have any success throw owing it no 574 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: matter for a twenty eight point favorite, Kyo for three 575 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: point dog. 576 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 3: That's what being all in means. 577 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: Their run defense is very good against Navy. 578 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 4: That's good. 579 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: But your boy, my boy, Andy Stutsman, he opted out. 580 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: Their safety, Billy Bowman, he also opted out. It does 581 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: look like all their defensive linemen are gonna play. Ethan 582 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: Downs that'sa aw his. I think his dad say he's 583 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: gonna play. Armison Thomas is gonna play. And then a 584 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: couple of other guys I was looking at Terry, Williams, 585 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: Ford and Spears Jenny's are all on the bowl depth chart, 586 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: so we'll keep keep an eye there. But Stut's been out, 587 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: Bowman out. Those are two big losses. This is a 588 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: service Academy is a dog in a bowl. I'm not 589 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: overthinking this. Give me the points with Navy. I also 590 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind the under, but I needed Oklahoma's defense 591 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: to be at full strength. So at this level of 592 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: a number, I'm not not going in on the under. 593 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: We better bring it. Bring your mouthpiece. What are you 594 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: seeing here? 595 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. You cannot take an under Listen, Brian Newberry 596 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 3: already has already covered the one bowl game that he's 597 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,479 Speaker 3: coached against. This is a big deal for them. You 598 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 3: can't take an under without Danny Stutsman at the second 599 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 3: level of the defense and Billy Bowman in the back 600 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: of the defense. They are critical to making stops, tackling 601 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 3: in space and stopping what this Navy offense is going 602 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 3: to do. Maybe probably a sour end to the season, 603 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 3: so you know, you would think, well, I'm sorry, I'm 604 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 3: sorry Navy. You know, didn't get the chance to win 605 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: their conference. The bowl games are going to be very 606 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 3: big to them. Owe you their interest level in this 607 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 3: not sure venables one and one against the spread and 608 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 3: bowls very limited. In the offense. If Dion Burks doesn't play, 609 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 3: I mean you're looking at an RPO with Hawkins, you know, 610 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 3: in a rushing attack that just really struggled all season. 611 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 3: This offensive line never really got them going either. The 612 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 3: Navy defense is vulnerable on the ground. I mean there's 613 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 3: no doubt we've podcast about that all year. They have 614 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 3: not been able to defend anything that ou will want 615 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 3: to do on the ground with the RPO. But at 616 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,239 Speaker 3: the same time, you're gonna be able to load nine 617 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 3: the box here and just go straight at Michael Hawkins 618 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 3: because a lot of teams did this year. On the schedule. Also, boy, 619 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 3: taking it over here, Navy's thirty second They average about 620 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 3: thirty seconds per play. Not really a fast offense. But 621 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 3: it's the EPA you've got to worry about here tenth 622 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 3: and rushing EPA fourth and passing EPA Oklahoma during the 623 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 3: season with the fourth strength of schedule in the nation 624 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 3: against the SEC sixtieth and defending pass explosives and if 625 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 3: you're missing Billy Bowman on the back end, it sounds 626 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 3: more like a Navy team total over, I would like 627 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 3: more confirmation on what's going on abou ou defensive line. 628 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Davey doesn't cover so be it Service 629 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: Academy in a bowl right as a dog, it's not 630 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: a bet for me. 631 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 4: Good. 632 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to the sad Birmingham Bowle 633 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: the Birmingham Bowl. Why am I said I mentioned it earlier? 634 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: It's Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt, two teams that I almost 635 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: undoubtedly would have been on had they been playing not 636 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: each other, but they get matched up here in the 637 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: Birmingham Ble and Birmingham Alabama three thirty Eastern ESPN on Friday. 638 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: If you're going to Birmingham, El Barrio for Mexican and 639 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: then it's actually an underrated food spot to go to 640 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: some of the local soul food spots all around Birmingham. 641 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: So Georgia Tech, it looks like they did their top 642 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: two receivers in the portal, but Rutherford withdrew so it 643 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: looks like he'll play. That's big. As Singleton is in 644 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: the portal, he won't play. They're left starting left tackle. 645 00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: He's also out. He's going to Arkansas starting out linebacker 646 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: Romelo Height he's out. They're starting safety Taste Seymour, he's out. 647 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: I think everyone else is gonna play for Georgia Tech. 648 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: They did have some injuries in the secondary late in 649 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: the year, so we'll see how healthy they are. But 650 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: Haines King should be healthier as well. Vanderbilt. They lost 651 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 1: one of their offensive lineman, Gunner Hansen, but that's about it. 652 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: I think Eli Stowers is gonna play to Ricky right 653 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:24,959 Speaker 1: with the other one I'm watching. I think he's gonna 654 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 1: play the and the offense really struggled down the stretch. 655 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: But they've now had time off, scheme up some stuff. 656 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: I think teams started to figure them out. But most importantly, 657 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: Pavia wasn't healthy. He now says he's as healthy as 658 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: he's been since the opener against Virginia Tech. I mean 659 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: he had injuries across the board, so both of these 660 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: quarterbacks could be a bit healthier. These are similar teams 661 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: like that, and to play on teams two teams, he 662 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: always went a back to an underdog. I think Vandy's 663 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 1: gonna be a bit more motivated and they have closer 664 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: to a full strength roster. This is a team that 665 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 1: hasn't been to a bowl since twenty eighteen. By the way, 666 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech hadn't been to a Bolt since twenty eighteen. 667 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 1: We saw that motivation playout last year against UCA. Danny 668 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: hasn't won a Bowl since twenty thirteen. Both of these 669 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: are like, you know, run first, grinding, offenses. They want 670 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: to kind of bleed the clock down, but both secondaries 671 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: are extremely vulnerable. The biggest mismatch in this game is 672 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,840 Speaker 1: probably Georgia Tech's pass offense efficiency their top twenty and 673 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: success rate versus Vandy's secondary bottom ten in the country. 674 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 1: But man, especially if you give me three, I think 675 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 1: I just got a ride to play on teams here. 676 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: Pobby's going to be healthier. I like this staff to 677 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: cook up some things. I think I got to take 678 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,240 Speaker 1: the points with Bandy. I mean, one last ride with Hobby, 679 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,399 Speaker 1: although he's going to be back, I think, but one 680 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: last ride. It's Pavia as a dog. I think I 681 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: think we got to take it. Do you agree? Disagree? 682 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 3: Completely disagree? If you if you would do two and 683 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 3: a half, we could put on the board, but I 684 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 3: wouldn't do. Ah. 685 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I look, I was at Texas and 686 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 1: Ohio State for me, I'm up nine to seven. I 687 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: let you go. 688 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 5: I like that. 689 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 6: Yeah. 690 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 3: I like Georgia Tech here. I think the first thing 691 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 3: to mention is that it is going to be sixty 692 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 3: one degrees. But there are fifty chants of rain and 693 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 3: twelve mile an hour. Twelve mile an hour wins here. 694 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 3: That's going to play into a huge reason why I 695 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 3: already like Georgia Tech. But let me start with the 696 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 3: Vanderbilt offense. Diego Pave is going to run sixty percent 697 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 3: of the time. They got manned power, a little bit 698 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 3: of zone rate, everything going on. But their offensive tackle 699 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 3: Gunner Hanson's already with Florida State, and this is an 700 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 3: offense that flip flops their their tackles and their guards 701 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 3: depending on power which side that they want to run. 702 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 3: It's it's a very interesting setup that we talked about preseason. 703 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 3: Georgia Tech. They're pretty average success rate and defending all 704 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 3: of those Vandy run concepts, but they are twelfth in 705 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,439 Speaker 3: line yards, so they have been able to handle other 706 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,399 Speaker 3: opposing offensive lines and getting a push. Bandy just doesn't 707 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 3: have any exposes with Pavia and Cedric Alexander running back. 708 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 3: Their top thirty in quality drives. But I mean, it's 709 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 3: kind of like what we talked about with Rutgers. They 710 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 3: don't shoot themselves in the foot. A very high ranking 711 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 3: offensive momentum rate, it's just kind of slow and go. 712 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 3: It's hard to stop Pavia fifty six and passing success 713 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 3: rate twenty fourth and EPA. I mean a lot of 714 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 3: that is you know, I'm running. I'm not boom over 715 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 3: the top, play action, whatever you want to call it. 716 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 3: But sixty four targets to Eli Stowers. I don't have 717 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 3: an update on him. I don't know if you do, 718 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 3: but I don't have an update. You know, a trio 719 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 3: of backup tight ends accounted for just ten catches this year. 720 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: I think he's going to play. 721 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, if he plays, it's a huge boost. And I 722 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 3: think you know, from a betting perspective, you need to 723 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 3: have that before you would put money on Vanderbilt. We 724 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 3: don't know right now, but I'm going to get it. 725 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 3: And also, you know Georgia Tech Edge Romela Height, He's 726 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 3: in the portal. He leads a team in pressures which 727 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 3: might not come into play because I'm not sure how 728 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 3: much throwing is going to happen, especially if it's fifty 729 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 3: percent showers and twelve milet inn hour wins. If running 730 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,919 Speaker 3: is important, That's where Georgia Tech I think has a 731 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 3: monster edge, not just Aaron Philo and Haines King working 732 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 3: in tandem. At the end of the year, Filo great 733 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,720 Speaker 3: passing nine to one, big time throw to turnover worthy plays. 734 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 3: Haines King not near the big time throw rate, but 735 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 3: end of the season with only one turnover worthy play 736 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 3: in two hundred and forty seven dropbacks. I didn't even 737 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 3: know that about Haines King, like he's been elite from 738 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,479 Speaker 3: a non mistake perspective. The Vandy defense finished one hundred 739 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 3: and twelve in pass rush, So if there is going 740 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 3: to be passing here that if there isn't any rain, 741 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 3: they're not going to get any pressure on whoever's throwing. 742 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 3: But you know, I think we need to talk about 743 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 3: what's going on with the run concepts. So Georgia Tech 744 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,760 Speaker 3: is this is why I made the bet. Jamal Haynes 745 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 3: led this rushing attack for Buster Faulkner that is heavy encounter. 746 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 3: Sixty percent of snaps rushing attempts are on counter. With 747 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 3: Jamal Haynes, they run a little zone read with both 748 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 3: of their quarterbacks, both quarterbacks. Kentucket and run. Vandy saw 749 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 3: counter on sixty four opponent attempts this year on their schedule, 750 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 3: a low and I'm super low thirty four percent success 751 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 3: rate and gave up an explosive one of every five 752 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 3: attempts against teams that ran counter. If it does rain, 753 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 3: and we do have a field that's conducive to chunky 754 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 3: and running attack. Counter is going to absolutely destroy this 755 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 3: bandy defensive front, which I think it will anyways, no 756 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 3: matter if there's weather. So because Vandy cannot defend this 757 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 3: run concept and Georgia Tech's offense has really put it 758 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,360 Speaker 3: on some teams this year, you know, I mean, Vandy 759 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 3: finished bottom twenty in PFF tackling, they finished bottom twenty 760 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 3: in hard stops. Their second level explosives could come for 761 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 3: Georgia Tech and the rush offense their top fifty and 762 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 3: just inside the top fifty and EPA. This fact that 763 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 3: slot Malik Rutherford is coming back in his seventy nine 764 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 3: targets that I mean Eric Singleton Junior not being there, 765 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 3: he's a whiteout, but having a slot with bad weather 766 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 3: it's a pretty good option, especially at seventy nine targets 767 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: and two point four yards per route run. That was 768 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 3: a huge commitment that was made. I'm within, like, what 769 00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 3: the last thirty six hours of this pod, I'm taking 770 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 3: Georgia Tech. I think the counter is just too much 771 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 3: for Vandy to defend. I think the rain actually helps 772 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 3: Georgia Tech a ton, you know, Vandy is kind of 773 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 3: a one trick pony on offense, and you know, just 774 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 3: need Georgia Tech to step up and get a couple 775 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 3: of stops here. But I'll go ahead dead with you here. 776 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 1: I'm trusting Dandy be a little bit more motivated and 777 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: the dog in Diego Pavia. Although both quarter both these 778 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are going to make plays extend drives. I'm actually 779 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 1: looking forward to to watching this one. 780 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 3: God, I wish these two would have played someone else. 781 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: Awful. It's really really bad. Uh yeah, I'm wrong. I'm 782 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 1: wrong with Vandy. All right, let's move on to some 783 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: messy bowl games Friday night. I mean, man, you ready, time, 784 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: It's time? Everybody neck brace on. 785 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 3: Everybody, please get your polaroids out. 786 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm wearing my neck brace. 787 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 3: I had to play Bobby Patrino. Now it's your turn. 788 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: Arkansas isn't a bowl game. Although maybe I shouldn't have 789 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: to wear this because it doesn't. It doesn't seem like 790 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 1: they want to be in a bowl game. 791 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 3: They don't. 792 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 6: Uh. 793 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: The Auto Zone Liberty Bowl seven pm Eastern on ESPN, 794 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: Friday night in Memphis, Tennessee. 795 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:12,240 Speaker 2: The Liberty Bowl. 796 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 1: I know not what costs others do they take. 797 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 7: But as for me, give me liberty or. 798 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 2: Give me. 799 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 1: I don't claim to be a barbecue expert. I don't 800 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,000 Speaker 1: want to get into the who has the best barbecue Porkys. 801 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: You say Porky's, I would shock and get pulled. 802 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,280 Speaker 3: Porkys, which is owned by Joe Klein from our final 803 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 3: four teams in the in the in nineteen eighties. 804 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: So all right, check out Porky's. I would shock to 805 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: pulled pork sandwich. All right. So this is this bowl 806 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 1: is a mess. We have on our agree tab by 807 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: the way, we only have we only have two bowls 808 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,319 Speaker 1: so far on the agree with Memphis, which is a win, 809 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: and we have Texas Tech plus three. Now this line 810 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 1: went to Arkansas plus three, and I I took some 811 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 1: arksall plus three in it dance of some potential news 812 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: for Texas Tech, which ended up coming through. Now Arkansas 813 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: is sitting for a much smaller in my original bet. 814 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,919 Speaker 1: Just took a portion off because I'd had a good, 815 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: good idea that that I was going to come back. 816 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:23,879 Speaker 1: Now Arkansas has flipped back to a favorite, but only 817 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: only minus one and a half. Now total fifty two 818 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: and a half totals came way down. I think I 819 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:36,760 Speaker 1: still like Texas Tech. Yeah, but very difficult game. In handicap. 820 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:41,280 Speaker 1: These are two very vulnerable defenses facing offenses with major 821 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: question marks. That's how I would sum up this bowl game. 822 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 1: Texas Tech also lost both of its coordinators. Seck Kelly 823 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: left to take the head coaching job at FAU, and 824 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,399 Speaker 1: they also let go of their defensive coordinator Tim de Ruter. 825 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: They made a really good hire. I thought to replace 826 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: him and Shield would, but they're missing their. 827 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 3: Quardinat By the way, shiel Wood was one of the 828 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 3: hottest coordinator names. He's been following h Willie Fritz, Willie 829 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 3: Fritz around. This is a This is an up and 830 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 3: coming star that will be a head coach real soon. 831 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 3: They're in the new defense quarter for Texas Tech. 832 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: YEP. Agreed in the portal for Tech, get a couple 833 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 1: offensive linemen. No one else really that impactful. That was 834 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:25,320 Speaker 1: getting a ton of snaps. The big news is starting 835 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 1: quarterback Baron Morton Home missed the ball after having surgery. 836 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: That means freshman will Hammond will go. He did see 837 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,439 Speaker 1: time this season. He came into that TCU game when 838 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: Morton was injured. Freshman, but you know, he's gonna have 839 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: time to prepare with these Bawl practices. I actually think 840 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 1: he might be a better fit for this offense. He can, 841 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,320 Speaker 1: he's a little bit more mobile, he can run the 842 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:51,839 Speaker 1: Reid option, so I don't hate it. They they're one 843 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 1: of their wide receivers, Josh Kelly did opt out. And 844 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: they did have some injuries, a lot of injuries all year, 845 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: So this defense might look actually healthier than it's been. 846 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: I mean, just in the their regular season finale. I'm 847 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,359 Speaker 1: not sure in their status, not one hundred percent sure, 848 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: but both are starting defensive tackles missed, they're you know, 849 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,399 Speaker 1: one of their linebackers and played. Since we ate they're 850 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 1: starting safety didn't play in the final few games, they 851 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 1: could look a lot healthier on defense. Meanwhile, and the 852 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: big news is TODs Brooks. We don't know. I thought 853 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: he was definitely an opt out. He's listed as RB 854 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,959 Speaker 1: one on the depth chart. Yep, that's a good sign 855 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 1: they need him having needs him. He is just absolutely massive. 856 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,280 Speaker 1: So if he doesn't play, this gets a little iffy. 857 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,720 Speaker 1: If he does, he is RB one in the depth chart. 858 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: Hopefully it's not one of those things where he comes 859 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: in the first drive and then doesn't play. But I 860 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: think if he plays, I like Texas Techas. Arkansas's roster 861 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: is in shambles. Starting center Addison Nicols, starting left guard, 862 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,320 Speaker 1: Andrew Kus starting right guard, Josh Brown. They all signed already, 863 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 1: they're not going to play. 864 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 3: What's that to all the Old Miss? Almost all of 865 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:03,720 Speaker 3: them to Old Mess? 866 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 1: Lots of Old Miss. There's all their starting receivers. Andrew 867 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,399 Speaker 1: Armstrong's opting out Sitaneas sign with Oklahoma. They're starting tight 868 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: end lucast signed with Old Miss. They're starting safety, one 869 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 1: of their linebackers, one of their dns all gone to 870 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 1: Quinnin's opting for the NFL to Quinnin Jackson, opting out 871 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: one of their backup running backs in the portal along 872 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: the defensive line, Landon Jackson, the best defensive player, he's 873 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: opting out Eric Gregory, their best defensive tackle, he's opting out. 874 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 1: They only have six healthy scholarship offensive lineman. You're gonna 875 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 1: have a new starting center and new right guard, and 876 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 1: then one of the receivers, Tyrone Broden, he's doubtful dealing 877 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: with the family matter. Here are the snap counts, So 878 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 1: you got Tyler Green is gonna play. Here are the 879 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: snap counts. Are the starters, the skill position starters on 880 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: the bold depth chart. Running back Rodney Hill one hundred 881 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,919 Speaker 1: and fifteen snaps, Isaac Tesla, He's the experienced guy. Three 882 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty snaps. Wide receiver Monte Harrison fifty eight. 883 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:06,760 Speaker 1: Wide receiver CJ. Brown forty two. Tight end Andreas Paski 884 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 1: won fifty three. I mean, so I think this Texas 885 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 1: Tech roster is in much better shape. I actually don't 886 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 1: mind Hammond, think he's a good fit. And if if 887 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: Brooks plays, I think they're gonna be able to move 888 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,720 Speaker 1: the ball on Arkansas, a very short handed Arkansas defensive 889 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 1: front in an already vulnerable secondary. And who's running the ball? 890 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 1: Who's Green throwing it to? I mean, you know you're 891 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,280 Speaker 1: into props with this game. Look for maybe Green rushing props. 892 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: What are I gonna you want to win this game? 893 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 1: You're gonna run Green. It's the only haven't run what 894 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 1: like thirty times in this game. 895 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:40,680 Speaker 3: The only offense. 896 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,439 Speaker 1: I still like Tech, even with the backup quarterback. Now 897 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 1: Hammond could this is just a risky taking the bulls. 898 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,439 Speaker 1: I don't think it. I think we had a little 899 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: bit more Intel than ty Thompson. But it could just 900 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 1: he could just come in and it could be a disaster. 901 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 1: Just a risky take. 902 00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:57,879 Speaker 5: You don't. 903 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,480 Speaker 1: We don't really know, but I still I like tech 904 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: here have minus one and a half, especially if Brooks 905 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 1: plays and he is on the depth chart, which is 906 00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: a good sign. Are you still sticking with Texas. 907 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 3: Tent woo pick suey. 908 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: Absolute dumpster fine, dumpster fine. 909 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 3: I don't know how we win a game the rest 910 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 3: of the year, just flowing program up. Give us a 911 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 3: death sentence. 912 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 2: Collins talking razorback football. 913 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 3: I am, I am. Let me throw in a couple 914 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 3: of notes around some things that you said. First off, 915 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 3: we're recording this on the twenty third, so as you know, 916 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 3: as as I do these handicaps, I've got to start 917 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,879 Speaker 3: looking at weather, and I'm doing them about four days out. 918 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 3: So this could change seventy one percent chance of rain 919 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 3: thirteen mile an hour wins. If Taylor Green even had 920 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 3: someone to throw to. He hasn't been accurate and the 921 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 3: weather dictates that he it might be a shitty day 922 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 3: to be a thrower. You know, you mentioned Tesla twenty 923 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 3: five catches that leads all pass catchers now, Bray and 924 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 3: Russell is our running back that has been already been 925 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 3: in the portal twice and come back out. He is 926 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,160 Speaker 3: the player that Pittman's been talking about this trying to 927 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,480 Speaker 3: make a better financial future for himself. But what does 928 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 3: it matter. He does not create misstackles. He just likes 929 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 3: to bull you over. Not sure that's going to work here. 930 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 5: Now. 931 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 3: The big question on this side of the ball is 932 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 3: can Texas Tech defend Taylor Green against it with the 933 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 3: second string offensive line who has made unbelievable Taylor Green 934 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 3: has made unbelievable critical mistakes in the RPO game. And 935 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,840 Speaker 3: if you want to know why all of these targets 936 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 3: are in the portal, especially considering like Andrew Armstrong is 937 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 3: like Taylor Green's roommate, these guys have been hot pissed 938 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 3: with Taylor Green for the second half of the season. 939 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 3: They've wanted nothing to do with his accuracy where he 940 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 3: has put the ball one hundred and fifteenth an on 941 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 3: target rate for Arkansas. Taylor Green has not adjusted to 942 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 3: SEC defenses whatsoever. After leaving Boise State. He has a 943 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 3: huge pressure to sack just there's way too much going on. 944 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 3: When he was a Boise State at eight point eight 945 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 3: percent pressure to sack ratio. This year he saw one 946 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty seven pressures, a nineteen point seven percent 947 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 3: pressure to sack ratio. It's not been good. So you 948 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 3: wonder what the offense is going to be. It's gonna 949 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 3: be a lot of him rolling out. You say, can 950 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 3: Texas Tech defend that? Well, let's look at some mobile 951 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 3: quarterbacks on this Texas Tech defense that they've faced. Texas 952 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 3: Tech d against West Virginia Garrett Green ten rushes minus 953 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:15,760 Speaker 3: eleven yards, Shador Sanders nine rushes sixteen yards, Sam Levitt 954 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 3: for the playoff Arizona State nine rushes for twenty five yards, 955 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 3: and then John Mattier. I had to throw it in there. 956 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 3: John Mattia went twenty one for one ninety seven. I mean, 957 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 3: but it's John Mattira, right, heisman leader maybe John Mattier, 958 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 3: So I throw that out. I don't knock Texas Tech defense, 959 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:31,720 Speaker 3: but they have shown a try. 960 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 1: Or beat up in that game too. They're missing multiple stars, 961 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 1: lost more starters during the game. 962 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I throw that out. They've been good. I mean, 963 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,919 Speaker 3: listen to the name Garrett Green, Shaduur Sanders, Sam Levitt, 964 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 3: though those are respectable quarterbacks that have leser can get 965 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 3: outside the pockets. I don't think Taylor has any avenue 966 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:47,480 Speaker 3: to get anything here. And if he gets popped and 967 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,720 Speaker 3: feels a little bit of an injury, you think Petrino's 968 00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 3: golden child that he's been connected to since when Patrino 969 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 3: was at Missouri State. He's gonna let him play and 970 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,239 Speaker 3: maybe have an injury for next year. Absolutely not. Oh, 971 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,360 Speaker 3: by the way, Malachi Singleton, our back up in the 972 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,360 Speaker 3: portal long gone, So I don't know who'd play quarterback. 973 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: I think in the freshman Yeah, yeah, something happens to 974 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 1: Green is going to be running a lot, which could happen. 975 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 3: If Taj now Here's I want everybody to be careful 976 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 3: with the total, right, So the total did come down 977 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 3: about three or four points. I think that could be 978 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 3: portal related. But I'm not sure everybody's catching up with 979 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 3: what the weather's doing. I mean, there is a very 980 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 3: large chance of rain. Oh, by the way, Arkansas's end 981 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 3: this ball two years ago, I can't even I don't 982 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:25,879 Speaker 3: even know what the motivation is. Again on I forty 983 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 3: and traveled on the other side of the state. If Taj 984 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 3: Boyd is playing here, you don't want I wouldn't think 985 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 3: you'd want to take an under because he could just 986 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 3: go crazy if there's bad or if there's rain, right, 987 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 3: if it's a sloppy track over there, I just think 988 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 3: that would be a really bad idea. Hamm in fourteen 989 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 3: of twenty two two big time throws, one turnover, worthy 990 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 3: play three games of action, he flashed some designed run 991 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 3: against TCU, and week nine. I think he can work 992 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 3: in tandem with Boyd here and get some damage on 993 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 3: the ground. You would say left tackle Dalton Merriman's in 994 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 3: the portal, but two other players did combine for four 995 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty three snaps at the blindside tack position. 996 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 3: Landon Jackson's not there to take advantage of that. So 997 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,919 Speaker 3: I have no problems with the offensive line for Texas Tech. 998 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 3: So with toaj Boy, this is absolutely a play on 999 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 3: Texas Tech. I expect that line to move. I would 1000 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 3: be careful with the total if TAJ Boy does play 1001 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:14,840 Speaker 3: because of the weather, it'd be more like a Texas 1002 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 3: Tech team total over an Arkansas team total under. No 1003 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:25,280 Speaker 3: matter what that that that's it. I mean at Arkansas, 1004 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 3: you know what we're on to uh thero a do 1005 00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 3: Booby flanned.

Brooks the main and it's 1011 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 1: just a signal around Arkansas doesn't seem like they're overly 1012 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: excited to be here. 1013 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 3: Joey McGuire too, and know against the spread and bulls. 1014 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, guns up, it's time to take this off 1015 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 1: all right.

By the way, he's mentioning 1045 00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 3: that this is Syracuse's second ear in row and in 1046 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 3: a quick bowl because they got boat raced like forty 1047 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 3: five to zero by who was it, South Florida and 1048 00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,520 Speaker 3: the Boca Raton Bowl last year, but now this year 1049 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 3: Syracuse like can get exact some revenge from the players 1050 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 3: that are held over so second ear in a row 1051 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:54,400 Speaker 3: for a foot bowl for Syracuse. 1052 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:58,840 Speaker 1: Here, Yes, this is the Washington State. Washington State is 1053 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 1: your quit watch wazoo without their staff who's out for them? 1054 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: Ten eleven starters, who knows it will be more? Starting 1055 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: a quarterback, John Matier, starting running back way Shaun Parker, 1056 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,720 Speaker 1: starting wide receiver, Chris Hutson. They're starting right tackle, starting 1057 00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 1: both starting cornerback, starting linebackers, starting safety, two starting defensive tackles. 1058 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 1: They're starting punter is even not going to play. And 1059 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 1: then you have a couple other defensive deputies that have 1060 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 1: played like four hundred snaps. Want a safety, one a 1061 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:30,120 Speaker 1: defensive lineman. I mean it looks like Zeby Ekhals will 1062 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 1: get the start at quarterback. Syracuse one of their starting 1063 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 1: corners in the transfer portal. But these two teams couldn't 1064 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: be any more different. Now they're approaching this. The entire 1065 00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,160 Speaker 1: Washington State staff is out, All the players are opting 1066 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:46,880 Speaker 1: out in the portal. Fran Brown the head coach for Syracuse, 1067 00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 1: and I think he cares about this game in some 1068 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 1: of those Syracuse players last year, by the way, they 1069 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: got embarrassed forty five nothing the South Florida in a 1070 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 1: game where they didn't have a coach. He said, everyone 1071 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: in Syracuse he expects to play. His exact quote was, 1072 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 1: we don't opt out around here, So I mean this 1073 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 1: line has Some people got this line and opened to 1074 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 1: like three two and a half three I think, which 1075 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: I mean. I figured in the tier was gonna opt out, 1076 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,799 Speaker 1: so I got some. I got a better number than 1077 00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 1: what's out there now on Syracuse. It's now sixteen and 1078 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: a half total fifty nine and a half. The total 1079 00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: seems high because how's Washington State scoring. I know Syracuse' 1080 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 1: d isn't good, but like, couldn't shouldn't this go like 1081 00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 1: the Syracuse South floridgain last year? Forty five? Nothing like? 1082 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: That's that's the vibes I get. Would I still lay 1083 00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 1: sixteen and a half. We got to talk about the 1084 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 1: current lines. I think it closes above seventeen. So yes, 1085 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,880 Speaker 1: if you're gonna bet this it's Syracuse or nothing, don't. 1086 00:55:56,040 --> 00:56:00,879 Speaker 1: I wouldn't go anywhere near Washington State. But this line 1087 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:03,279 Speaker 1: has obviously moved a time. I don't know if it's 1088 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:08,800 Speaker 1: moved enough. It's Syracuse or nothing, but it's sixteen and 1089 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,919 Speaker 1: a half in the bowls. A lot delay would help 1090 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:12,080 Speaker 1: help this out here. 1091 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:16,520 Speaker 3: Got in the app last night, that would be Sunday, 1092 00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:19,479 Speaker 3: December twenty second. Two books have put it out team 1093 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 3: total over thirty seven and a half for Syracuse here. 1094 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 3: I just I don't see any other option going on here. 1095 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 3: Considering Washington State's defensive numbers were app I mean, Arkansas 1096 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,720 Speaker 3: stateish absolutely horrific, and now they've lost almost every single 1097 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,799 Speaker 3: starter over there. They gave up thirty eight or more 1098 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 3: in the season to Oregon State, New Mexico, Boise State. 1099 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,040 Speaker 3: In San Jose State, Sarahcu scored thirty eight or more 1100 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,360 Speaker 3: against the defenses of Miami, Virginia Tech UNLV in Ohio. 1101 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 1: By the way, Washington State, we should also mention before 1102 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 1: all these opt outs, there's probably signal that something was 1103 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 1: very wrong because they got they lost their last three games, 1104 00:56:56,520 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 1: all as double digit favorites. This is the team that 1105 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 1: was trending in the wrong direction already and now it's 1106 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 1: just an absolute mess. 1107 00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,839 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, colinm Accord's got his full weapons here. 1108 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 3: Seventh and passing success right sixteenth and quality drives. You know, 1109 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 3: they weren't that great an EPA. They were one hundred 1110 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 3: and fifth, But that could change here against this defense 1111 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 3: if you go to the other side. The reason stuck 1112 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 3: that I am I some of these bowls, these lines 1113 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 3: are getting like out of control, they stop and then 1114 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 3: the team covers by the closing line. I have a 1115 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 3: feeling this could happen because I went back and I 1116 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 3: watched a whole bunch of tape of zeb Eckhouse, who's 1117 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 3: going to be the quarterback here for Washington State. Six 1118 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 3: of seven passing on the year. 1119 00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 1: But if you do a little bit, they do you 1120 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 1: want to go do some Christmas shopping? Sorry, they have 1121 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 1: watching film of Zebhouse? 1122 00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, well yeah, Mandy wasn't happy about that. Eight thousand 1123 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 3: yards at Bryant for seventy one touchdowns and twenty five interceptions. 1124 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 3: He generated seventy five big time throws to just fifty 1125 00:57:55,440 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 3: turnover worthy plays. He threw in a thousand rush yards 1126 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 3: over three seasons. Almost all of that came on scrambles. 1127 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 3: Kid can move, Kid can throw. Kyle Williams eighty six 1128 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:08,400 Speaker 3: targets is still available in the slot and the white 1129 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:09,960 Speaker 3: out from what I can read here, and running back 1130 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 3: Leo Plasi had fifty three carries for three point three 1131 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 3: yards after first contact. I don't think the Wazoo offense 1132 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 3: is completely dead. And the tape I saw of Zebieck 1133 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 3: House at Bryant, I mean it's Bryant. I get it. 1134 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 3: We're watching neck football here. I get it. It didn't 1135 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 3: look bad. So I'm gonna stick with Syracuse team total 1136 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 3: over because if Washington State wants to put points up 1137 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 3: on the board, Hey, Fran Brown's ready to roll right, 1138 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 3: He's ready to hit you as fast as he can. 1139 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:38,959 Speaker 1: As this is bod written all over.

You and I had it 1164 00:59:58,360 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 3: at what four in the morning. 1165 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 1: I don't get heartburn. I don't really get hangovers. I 1166 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 1: had the worst heartburn hangover of my life. This thing 1167 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 1: was like this big and it was just it was 1168 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:13,840 Speaker 1: blue drinking out of flour in the morning. One of 1169 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:17,680 Speaker 1: my one of my biggest regrets in life was that 1170 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 1: drinking that drink the next morning was hell on earth. 1171 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 3: Anyway, Can I throw in a couple. Yeah, okay, So 1172 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 3: if you don't want to go to Vegas and be 1173 01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 3: on the Strip or downtown. I have spent a lot 1174 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,040 Speaker 3: of trips out of Red Rock, specifically, go into red 1175 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:35,840 Speaker 3: Rock Canyon Grill. They have a great TV and bar 1176 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 3: set up some of the biggest shrimp and Bloody Mary's 1177 01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 3: I've ever had. It's rocked me a few times. But 1178 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 3: if you are on the Strip and you don't want 1179 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 3: to pay two hundred dollars to sit down in a book, 1180 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 3: and you don't want to deal with the riff raff 1181 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,439 Speaker 3: of the bullshit of the people with ten dollars bets 1182 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 3: that are yelling over you, I love going over to Encore. 1183 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 3: Actually right in between OnCore and Win and I think 1184 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:58,680 Speaker 3: you and I have been there before with a couple 1185 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:02,280 Speaker 3: of people is the east Side Lounge. Now, the east 1186 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 3: Side Lounge has a couple of pull down screens with projectors, 1187 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 3: extremely comfortable couches, extremely comfortable chairs. It is made to 1188 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,000 Speaker 3: be a martini bar, but they put the sports on. 1189 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 3: They don't charge you to sit down. You can get 1190 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:18,880 Speaker 3: if you have a group of five or less. The 1191 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 3: east Side Lounge is quietly one of the best places 1192 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 3: to watch a game, and it is also about forty 1193 01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:29,120 Speaker 3: five second walking distance the Encore Sports book. Little tiny 1194 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:31,480 Speaker 3: little booth that they got east Side Lounge is one 1195 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,480 Speaker 3: of my little hidden favorites in Las Vegas. 1196 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, always a great time. Can't wait to get back 1197 01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:40,600 Speaker 1: there soon. Texas A and M three and a half 1198 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 1: point favor total fifty one and a half. Tough game 1199 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:50,479 Speaker 1: to crack. Texas A and M transfer portals to wide 1200 01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 1: receiver Cyrus Allen, and then they got three key opt 1201 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 1: outs DN, Nick Scuton, d N Chamar Stewart, D tackle 1202 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:01,439 Speaker 1: Schamar Turner, so three of them more important defensive lineman. 1203 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 1: Now they have good depth there. They still have good 1204 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, but those are three other best players up front. 1205 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 1: Alco said he doesn't expect any other opt out. So 1206 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 1: they love Moss. He's been hurt. Not on the depth chart. 1207 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:15,080 Speaker 3: Moss is done. 1208 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's done. USC David hit a lot harder in 1209 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 1: the portal, starting right tackle Mason Murphy. They're starting wide 1210 01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:27,480 Speaker 1: receiver Karen Hudson, starting wide receiver Deuce Robinson, starting one 1211 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,800 Speaker 1: receiver zach Ry Branch. Their backup running back Quinton Joyner 1212 01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:34,400 Speaker 1: who signed with Texas Tech. That's important because wood he 1213 01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 1: Mark is opting out. You know, then you got a 1214 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:40,400 Speaker 1: couple other depth pieces. They're starting cornerback, Jalen Smith is 1215 01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:44,280 Speaker 1: opting out. Looks like they're starting guard. Pregnant will play. 1216 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 1: Kamari Ramsey's coming back. It looks Brian Jackson is going 1217 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 1: to lead the backfield. Now, I think so this Lin's 1218 01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:59,160 Speaker 1: sitting at three and a half. By the way, us 1219 01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:01,320 Speaker 1: he already played in this stadium. It's a little bit 1220 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:02,360 Speaker 1: of an advantage there. 1221 01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:04,920 Speaker 3: And well it's Jade. What are you talking about is 1222 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:06,040 Speaker 3: Jade Mavis Stadium? 1223 01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:11,360 Speaker 1: Yes, and USC played there, played us U LSU the opener. Yeah, 1224 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 1: so a little bit of familiarity there. I I'm inclined 1225 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 1: to take the points here. It's more of a gut feel. 1226 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,720 Speaker 1: The USC still has talent at wide receiver, right lane Lemon, 1227 01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:28,439 Speaker 1: They're gonna have talent. Lincoln Riley's gonna draw up some things. 1228 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: I like what I saw from my ada against Notre Dame. 1229 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 1: He seemed to grasp that offense. And now he's gonna 1230 01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 1: get a couple more weeks. Remember he took over the 1231 01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 1: job from Millner Moss halfway through the season. He's gonna 1232 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 1: get a couple more weeks of Bowl practices to kind 1233 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 1: of work with the ones or some new ones, and 1234 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,280 Speaker 1: that Texas A and M defensive line that was the 1235 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 1: strength of their team. It's still gonna be good and 1236 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 1: they still players up there, but it's not gonna be 1237 01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 1: as deep and it's not gonna be as talented. Obviously, 1238 01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:55,960 Speaker 1: when you have three opt outs up front, I know 1239 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 1: USC is not a full strength. Most of that is 1240 01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. I still believe in their talent at 1241 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,440 Speaker 1: wide receiver. I mean lane was pretty much like kick 1242 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:06,520 Speaker 1: to the curb and then against Notre Dame, what do 1243 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:12,280 Speaker 1: they have three touchdowns in that game? I kind of 1244 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:15,080 Speaker 1: like USC. I think A and M was overrated all year. 1245 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:20,240 Speaker 1: I was rooting for them, but I think, and here's 1246 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:22,600 Speaker 1: the other key for me, if you're gonna get me 1247 01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:26,400 Speaker 1: three and a half in this game, I love the 1248 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 1: USC defensive staff, like from top to bottom, so you 1249 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 1: give them extra time to repair. Here for Reed, who 1250 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 1: I think can get confused and is limited in certain ways, 1251 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:47,720 Speaker 1: I think that's advantage USC. Trojans in Vegas three and 1252 01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:52,360 Speaker 1: a half. I don't know if their opt outs warn't this. 1253 01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 1: I like the Trojans probably gonna be on the plus 1254 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:55,960 Speaker 1: three and a half. 1255 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,480 Speaker 3: Let's start. Let's start from the beginning here, because if 1256 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,160 Speaker 3: this would have been played during the regular season the 1257 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 3: neutral side, I would have had a Texas A and 1258 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 3: M minus four. That two and a half opener I wanted. 1259 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:06,920 Speaker 3: But I also was in this area where it's like 1260 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 3: I got to see the opt outs before I make 1261 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:10,400 Speaker 3: a decision. By the time that happened, this thing flew 1262 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 3: past three. I think three is a major key here, 1263 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 3: so I think you're on the right side of it. 1264 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:17,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't take you two and a half. No, 1265 01:05:17,560 --> 01:05:20,400 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't mind like right, I think the right 1266 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:24,240 Speaker 1: line here is Ray and at three and a half 1267 01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 1: with the hook, with some of the edges I can 1268 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 1: see coaching wise, like Lincoln Riley scheme and some stuff 1269 01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,320 Speaker 1: up liking what I saw from my IVA, so I 1270 01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 1: think that there's some more upside there. And then this 1271 01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:36,440 Speaker 1: d staff getting ready for Reid, who I think is 1272 01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:39,600 Speaker 1: limited throwing the A and M opt outs up front. 1273 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 1: I think I got to take the hook. Look ahead. 1274 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 3: So let's talk about market because once this thing got 1275 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 3: past three and I finally you know, we knew who 1276 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 3: was going to be in this game, and who wasn't 1277 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,280 Speaker 3: going to be in this game. The sharpest, the the 1278 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 3: sharpest book out on the out in the West went 1279 01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 3: to four for eight minutes and then with snap right 1280 01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 3: back to three and a half. And I completely agree 1281 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 3: with that move. So I think market entry here. We've 1282 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,520 Speaker 3: talked about this before. Market entry is important. And if 1283 01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:10,560 Speaker 3: I see a four in one of these lazy books 1284 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:12,000 Speaker 3: where I can get a dime down, I'm going to 1285 01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 3: go for it. On USC you mentioned jade Mayeva. The 1286 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 3: fact that the Texas A and M defensive line is 1287 01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:22,200 Speaker 3: going to be missing Skirton Stewart Turner on the inside. 1288 01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:24,200 Speaker 3: That is a huge boost to jade Maeva because he 1289 01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:27,960 Speaker 3: does not like pressure whatsoever. You know, Kyraen Hudson's going 1290 01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 3: to Penn State branch is rumored to He could be 1291 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:33,480 Speaker 3: announcing to Georgia today, which would be crazy. Deuce Robinson's 1292 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,840 Speaker 3: going to Florida State. So you mentioned Jacobe Lanez there, 1293 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:37,440 Speaker 3: but he only had a one point four yards per 1294 01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 3: route run. That could just be a usage issue. That 1295 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 3: could just be not enough sample size on thirty six targets. 1296 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 3: But slot mackay Lemon forty six catches three point one 1297 01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:51,160 Speaker 3: yards per route run. Holy shit, that is majorly explosive. 1298 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:57,720 Speaker 3: Zero rushing expectations here without Mars Joiner, I see avenues 1299 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 3: for hitting the slot. Just spamming the slot. I think 1300 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 3: that's what my eighteen year old says, Dad, you're spamming 1301 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:05,439 Speaker 3: the button in Fortnite. Spamming the slot here with limit, 1302 01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 3: I think that is the avenue for them to score. 1303 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:08,960 Speaker 3: The Texas A and M offense is going to be 1304 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:11,200 Speaker 3: extremely limited. I mean, Marcel Reid gets the nod of 1305 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 3: Mauri Daniels. We've talked about him, and just the yards 1306 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 3: after first contact or not there. The explosiveness is not 1307 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:19,000 Speaker 3: there from that running game fiftieth and success rate rushing 1308 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 3: past EPA just outside the top fifty. And those are 1309 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,560 Speaker 3: numbers that you know. I mean Reid struggled a lot 1310 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,920 Speaker 3: at time. His best passing grades came against LSU and 1311 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 3: the Auburn defenses in US is one hundred and eleventh. 1312 01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 3: And contested catch rate Reid coudca clips two hundred yards, 1313 01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:35,919 Speaker 3: similar to what he did against South Carolina, New Mexico State. 1314 01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:38,640 Speaker 3: In Auburn, it's can they get in the end zone. 1315 01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 3: I mean, we've talked about this. 1316 01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 6: A and M. 1317 01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:44,160 Speaker 3: You've got to get better and your extended red zone attempts. 1318 01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:47,080 Speaker 3: You know, a big trench advantage for Texas A and 1319 01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,520 Speaker 3: M here for the offense from a line yards from 1320 01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,600 Speaker 3: a stuff rate, big special teams advantage here for Texas 1321 01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:59,040 Speaker 3: A and M tenth per sp plus to USC's fifty sixth. Again, 1322 01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:01,280 Speaker 3: this could come down to a feal and you know 1323 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:02,760 Speaker 3: what that would be in favor of Texas A and 1324 01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 3: M here at the end. So I'm gonna be looking 1325 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,919 Speaker 3: for USC at four. I think there's gonna be heavy stock. 1326 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:09,680 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be heavy text A and M money, 1327 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 3: I really do. And then I think some of the 1328 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,439 Speaker 3: ones that are thinking like us are going to snap 1329 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:15,800 Speaker 3: the fours. If you get the four and it goes 1330 01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:17,760 Speaker 3: to four and a half, I wouldn't be scared, not 1331 01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:19,320 Speaker 3: gonna be scared by the money because the money is 1332 01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 3: going to come in on text A and M. So 1333 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:21,720 Speaker 3: if you want to put it on the board at 1334 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 3: three and a half, that we agree for the podcast purposes, 1335 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:27,720 Speaker 3: we can, because I think three is ultimately the most 1336 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 3: key number. 1337 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:30,599 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be watching the market as well see where 1338 01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 1: this potentially goes. But I will be on USC if 1339 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 1: three and a half is the best I can get, 1340 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:37,720 Speaker 1: so yeah, let's put it on. 1341 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:39,719 Speaker 3: The board and be patient. 1342 01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:44,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, keep an eye on the app as always.
