But it just 136 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: came across on the Twitter sphere and via the old 137 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: Miss YouTube channel. Weirdly enough that ole Miss is now 138 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: self imposing a one year postseason ban for the twenty 139 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: seventeen college football season. Per Bruce Felban quote, Old Miss 140 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: has been charged with the dreaded lack of institutional control 141 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: by the NCAA. The school said it will fight the charge. 142 00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: They also provided an update via a weird, emotionless twenty 143 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: minute YouTube video which I had a chance to click through, 144 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: and it's awful. 145 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: Right, this is not good. If you're an Old Mis fan, Dan, 146 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 2: you freeze Contrary to the allegations, I have strong record 147 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 2: of promoting compliance and monitoring my staff. Ole Miss will 148 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: also forfeit its annual postseason money, which is approximately seven 149 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: point eight million. 150 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: Dollars as per league rules by the bulban. 151 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: Not great. I imagine they are going to vigorously appeal 152 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: and hope for something. You know that the bulban being enough, 153 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: but lack of institutional control could have a lot of 154 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: bearing on who freeze a specific future. 155 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels a little bit like the NCAA went 156 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: for the kill shot here, right. 157 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: Notice of allegations is just that it is not a 158 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: ruling of any kind, but I imagine ole Miss is going 159 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 2: to try to get out way in front of it, 160 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: and like other schools have who have received allegations similar 161 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: or in the same vicinity or tangential to what ole 162 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: Miss has received, I would imagine the strategy should continue 163 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: to be open up as much as you possibly can, 164 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: and do not lie, do not cover anything up at 165 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: this point, be as forthrights as humanly possible, and hope 166 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: for the mercy of the completely confusing and nonsensible and 167 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: c DOAA Enforcement Commission.

Wow, 261 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 2: I mean there are stories Ty they went out. That's 262 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: a lot of white hair right there, man, It's a lot. 263 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 2: So basically, I'm gonna give you eight items, one after 264 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: the other. We are going to figure out if this 265 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: is it, this is it, this is just the reality 266 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: of college football. 267 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: You're ready for the first one? 268 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 2: I am. 269 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: I'm ready here, lay down that track? All right, here 270 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: we go? All right? 271 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: Is Clemson now after two straight National Championship Game appearances, 272 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: one win, a perennial ten and a half plus win 273 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: national Championship game threat is not the reality in which 274 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 2: we live? 275 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: Is this it? I am gonna say no? Oh interesting? 276 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: Why I am gonna say no? I am very impressed 277 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: by what Dabo Sweeney has done on the recruiting trail. 278 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: Impressed by the program that he's built. It's really tough 279 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: to get to a perennial ten and a half eleven 280 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: win program, very difficult to do. I don't think they're 281 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: too far away from that. But what I need to 282 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 1: see is what they're able to do now post Deshaun Watson. Okay, 283 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: Sean Watson was really good. They're great all across the field. 284 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: They've got a ton of talent, but Deshaun Watson is 285 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: the reason they won that National Championship game. Above all, 286 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: I want to see what they can do in the 287 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: post Watson era before I'm willing to commit to that. 288 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 2: But I'm not against it. I'm just I want more data. 289 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: I think that's reasonable, so incoming right now. I mean, 290 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 2: they have a quarterback situation. 291 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: Nothing. 292 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 2: I believe high blue hip like Deshaun Watson was as 293 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 2: a recruit and clearly was as a quarterback himself. Hunter 294 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 2: Johnson coming in as the true freshman and the second 295 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: best pro style quarterback in the country, a five star 296 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 2: quarterback coming in. You remember Deshaun Watson started playing as 297 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: a true freshman, and they've got a what sounds like 298 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 2: a Georgia quarterback coming in. He is from Georgia and 299 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: he does have the you know, the shutdown full cast 300 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: to first name name, Chase Bryce, Chase Bryce. So he 301 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: is also coming in as a blue chipper, a four 302 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: star quarterback. So I tell you this because it feels 303 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 2: like if you are going to perennially challenge for a 304 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 2: national championship game, you're gonna need consistent quarterback play and great, 305 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 2: great year over year defense, even with a ton of 306 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 2: NFL attrition, which Clemson has proven already. That's part of 307 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: the equation that they can lose a bunch of defensive players, 308 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 2: key guys to the NFL or to graduation, whatever end 309 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 2: of eligibility, replenish, reload, and succeed all the same and 310 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 2: they've got a great defensive coordinator Brent Venables. But the 311 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: quarterback question I think is real. But I'm going to 312 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: say because of the continuity on both sides of the 313 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 2: ball and the coaching staff, Dabbo's around recruiting, I think 314 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 2: very well. I wouldn't say at the top of the 315 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 2: top Florida State still head to them in the ACC 316 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: I am going to say, this is it? Wow? So 317 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 2: what do we play the sound we play it? Play 318 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: that this is at sound time. Okay, you're saying yes, 319 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 2: So I've got that Kenny Loggins approval. That's all I need. 320 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: So I'm saying yes. So we disagree early. We do disagree. Here. 321 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: Here's Clemson's schedule for the current or I guess coming season. 322 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: Auburn at home is their game. What second week of 323 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: the year. They go to Louisville, which will be a 324 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: tough place to play. They go to Virginia Tech, which, 325 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: I before Gerard Evans declared his eligibility for the draft, 326 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: looked like it'd be a tougher game. Still could be 327 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: pretty tough, but a tough place to play, right Wlayane Stadium. 328 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely got a game here on the road at NC State, 329 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: which is a game that on rare occasions give them 330 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: some issue. Did this pass this past year? Yeah, Florida 331 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: State they get at home, which is a tough, tough 332 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: spot no matter where that game is, go to South 333 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: Carolina to close out the year. South Carolina played well 334 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: down the stretch last year, So I don't know, there's 335 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: a very good chance to get to ten this year. 336 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: But I just I want to see more data about 337 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: how they're gonna look post Deshaan Watson. 338 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that Auburn Louisville back to back early on, it's 339 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 2: gonna be tough. Could see us split there, you know, 340 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 2: having Lamar Jackson at the Papa. 341 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 1: I cannot look anything about it at the Papa. 342 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 2: But yes, the back half of their schedule, getting Florida 343 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 2: State at home would have been nice to have that 344 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 2: after a bye week. But yes, I'm saying this is 345 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 2: a Clemson getting to back to back national championship games 346 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 2: is such a rare feat outside of basically Alabama that 347 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with that. Being in it ty, I'm 348 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna stay with this theme. 349 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: Give me some music. 350 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,719 Speaker 2: It's very there. I suit it's sets a mood. It 351 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 2: does is the ACC Atlantic is the best division in 352 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 2: college football. 353 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: Is this? 354 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: It is this just the reality in which we live. 355 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 2: ACC Atlantic as the a savision. Yes, in football, Okay, 356 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 2: so other contested divisions, I mean, I SEC West, I 357 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:09,959 Speaker 2: don't think so, Okay, hear me out. The SEC West 358 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: certainly has the big name Cachet and LSU just clobbering 359 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 2: Louisville in their bowl game certainly is a step back 360 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 2: for the ACC Atlantic. But here's what I would add. 361 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 2: I'm I'm sure you're about to make a case for 362 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: the Big Ten East. Bottom of the Big Ten East, 363 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: Michigan State and Rutgers combined for five wins, which is 364 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 2: the clear lowest of any two teams at the bottom 365 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: of a Power five division. So I think that it's 366 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 2: it's so top heavy, and I don't think there's enough 367 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 2: depth there. Indiana had a disappointing year, Maryland, Michigan State, Rutgers. 368 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: That's it. It's not a great foursome. What's interesting actually 369 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: about the the ACC Atlantic is that the team that 370 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 1: finished last in the ACC Atlantic was Boston College and 371 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 1: they actually went seven and six. 372 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 2: Right, they only had one one team with a losing 373 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 2: record overall, And I know teams will stack their schedule 374 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 2: and obviously the ACC has four non conference schedules non 375 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 2: conference games, so that exkews things a bit. 376 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: These arguments are always really hard for me because I 377 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: have a tendency to look at the top and not 378 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: so much examine the depth. 379 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 2: So the fourth place team was a chip shot field 380 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 2: goal away from beating the national champion. 381 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: Facts only, ty facts only. 382 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 2: Syracuse went four and eight wake Forest big bounce back year, 383 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 2: led by new Notre Dame defensive coordinator. I already forget 384 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 2: his name, Mike something, Mike Yelko. Yeah, there it is, 385 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 2: thank you, that's why you're here in Boston. College won 386 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: seven games. Now, I'm not going to it wasn't always 387 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 2: presser too much by it, right, They went on to 388 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 2: four against ranked teams. You know, the bottom of that 389 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 2: division went o seven against ranked teams. I get it, 390 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,959 Speaker 2: but I can't make a compelling case. I can't make it. Well, 391 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 2: there's no division in the Big twelve, the Big Ten 392 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 2: West certainly not. 393 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: The only two arguments here that you could counter with 394 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: would be the Big ten East of the SEC West. 395 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: The SEC West has historically been way better. 396 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't go as far as saying historically, 397 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: because we've watched a lot of football in the state 398 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 2: of Mississippi historically has not been great. 399 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, I'm still going SEC West. At least 400 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: over the last ten years, the SEC West has been 401 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: far and away better than the Sea Atlantic. 402 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: The Big Ten East. 403 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,719 Speaker 1: You can't make that same argument for the Big Ten 404 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: East because I don't think it was until we saw 405 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: the rise of Penn State that everyone started talking about 406 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: the Big Ten East is like this goliath. But I 407 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: do think they're going to have some staying power. We 408 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: know Michigan has recruited well, They've got Jim Horriball, they're 409 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: going to be solid. We know Ohio State with Urban 410 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: Meyer has been playoff quality year in and year out, 411 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: and they've absolutely reloaded pretty much every single year. So 412 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,360 Speaker 1: certainly they're always going to be in the conversation. Penn 413 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: State's done real well for themselves in the recruiting trail. 414 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: They obviously had a renaissance last year. They're not going 415 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: away anytime soon. I think you look around the Big 416 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: ten East, there are some other reasons to be optimistic. 417 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: Certainly not Rutgers, but Maryland has done pretty well in 418 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: the recruit tree, didn't have a great season, actually lost 419 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: to Boston College and in the bowl game. But I 420 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,479 Speaker 1: think there's reason for optimism. Michigan State had a bit 421 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: of an aberration, is Oh, so it's not it for 422 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: Michigan State. It's definitely not it for Michigan State, Okay, 423 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: but I think more of an aberrational on that side. 424 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: I think they will come back. They just lost a 425 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: lot last year, so I would say in a vacuum, 426 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: ACC Atlantic better in twenty sixteen. But if you're going 427 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: to make an argument for them moving forward as the 428 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: best conference in college football, I am not comfortable with 429 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: that assertion. So I'm going to say that it is 430 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: it is not it. 431 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 2: No, I'm going to agree with you. I don't know 432 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: who it is though, So I right, I honestly. So 433 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 2: the SEC West, You've got the top of the SEC 434 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 2: West losing to the top of the Atlantic in Clemson. 435 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 2: You've got Michigan near the top of the Big Tennies 436 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 2: losing to the ACC Atlantic, and Florida State in their 437 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 2: bowl game, Louisville losing to LSU in their bowl game. 438 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,959 Speaker 2: But the rest, I think it's a nice story, and 439 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 2: you can start to talk me into and then I 440 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 2: will quickly cut you off the coastal as being sort 441 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 2: of deep and interesting. But they lose so much in 442 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 2: the way of quarterbacks that it's really really hard to know. 443 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 2: PAC twelve North would have had an argument before last 444 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 2: year because of emerging Washington, Oregon Stanford col producing a 445 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 2: big quarterback in Jared Goff the year before. But I 446 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: just and obviously Luke Fox and Washington State ac quitting 447 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 2: themselves very nicely. But at this point you have Ole 448 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: miss going Downssissippi State trending slightly in the upward direction, Arkansas. 449 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: Let's leave it at this. 450 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:39,239 Speaker 2: Let's leave it at this. 451 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: Please. It's much easier to make the argument for twenty 452 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: sixteen ACC Atlantic than it is twenty seventeen ACC Atlantic, 453 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 1: And I think for that reason, I am inclined to 454 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: say that this is not it, at least not yet. 455 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 2: You know what I'm reversing, just because I can't find 456 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 2: anyone to be conclusively better ACC Atlantic. 457 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: This is it. 458 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: Wow. You just want to hear that sound, don't you? 459 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 2: Of course I do. All right, where we going next? 460 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 2: All right, next, We're gonna go group of five. 461 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: So we get emails, we get requests like Why don't 462 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: you guys talk about group of five? 463 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: Do some group of five fantasy stuff? I don't know 464 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 2: if we're gonna go that far, but held on, Oh yeah, 465 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 2: go ahead. 466 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: Here it is. 467 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 2: Is the American Athletic Conference the best group of five 468 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 2: conference even without Matt rule. Well, Tom Herman and I. 469 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: Should add Tommy Tubbervell or Bob Diaco in his beautiful hair. Right. 470 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 2: So we're gonna set some fires with this one, aren't we. 471 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: So we have the AAC. So this is talent. This 472 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: is not an argument we can win. Regardless of how 473 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: we present our arguments here, we will inevitably get emails 474 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: about this one. People already be pissed off here no 475 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: matter what we no matter what we say. So okay, 476 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: you go first. 477 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna make the case here Temple good amount of 478 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: and some returning talent in uh and I like Jeff Collins. 479 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 2: I like that higher. The defense shouldn't take too far, 480 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 2: if not any of a step back South Florida. I 481 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 2: imagine the defense, which was the issue last year, it 482 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 2: will get significantly better with Charlie Strong and bringing back 483 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 2: a ton everywhere, including Quintin Flowers. You know, one of 484 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 2: the most dynamic playmakers in the country Cincinnati, who knows 485 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 2: UCF you have to assume improvement. Scott Frost turned them 486 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 2: around pretty quickly at least to get them back to respectability. 487 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: Yukon and Reht lastly running the offense there. Now you know, 488 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 2: I guess obviously they're going back to a dream job 489 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 2: or at a head coach ken Yu Modalolo is as 490 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 2: consistent as it gets at Navy Tulsa and Philip Montgomery 491 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 2: I like a lot Houston. I will imagine there will 492 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 2: be continuity in the short term because of the success recruiting, 493 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 2: and I think SMU and Chad Morris are only on 494 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 2: a positive trajectory at the moment. So I'm going to say, 495 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 2: and I think their only real competition is the Mountain West, 496 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 2: who I also like. I'm going to say, yes, this 497 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 2: is it. The AAC remains the top group of five conference. 498 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: I'm going to wait to play that sound okay until 499 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 2: you're response because because I agree. 500 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I agree with you, Dan, Okay, Why I 501 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 1: agree with you. I'm looking over the roster of teams 502 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: in both all right, Now, again, everything's relative. I think 503 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years there are more teams 504 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: in the AAC that I think could knock off a 505 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 1: Power five than if I'm looking at the Mountain West. Okay, 506 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: all right, I feel like South Florida with Charlie Strong 507 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: can probably do some damage, you know. I feel like 508 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 1: Temple could do some damage. East Carolina until recently was 509 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: a team that could knock you off. Navy has actually 510 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: absolutely been pretty good. Houston was good. You mentioned Tulsa. 511 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: Memphis has had some good seasons. All right. They did 512 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: extremely well this season despite losing justin fu wenteoe. 513 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 2: I feel like. 514 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: The depth of teams in the AAC is a little 515 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: bit more ferocious than in the Mountain West, where if 516 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: you look at it, you have You've always got Boise 517 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: State right, ten wins again this year, Wyoming had a 518 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: good season. I don't know if I'm terribly concerned about 519 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: Wyoming knocking me up. 520 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 2: They bring back Josh Allen right or back, who people 521 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 2: thought had NFL ability. 522 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: New Mexico had a problem throwing the football. They could 523 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: do was run decent. 524 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 2: Nine win New Mexico though, Tye. 525 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: Okay, that's fine. I'll take a ten and three. Air 526 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: Force as air Force was dangerous. Colorado State Okay, fine, 527 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: Utah State. 528 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 2: Eh. 529 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: This past season, San Diego State had a down year, 530 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: sure down year. San Diego State eleven wins. Hawaii wasn't impressed. 531 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: In Jose State was not impressed. Nevada UNLV Fresno State 532 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: was not impressed. So I just feel like the depth 533 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: is there with the AAC. I think it will continue 534 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: to be there. And that is why I'm saying. 535 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 2: This is it. I think you're not giving them Mountain 536 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 2: West enough credit. I think it's a little bit closer. 537 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 2: San Diego State went eleve th three and Donnelle Pump 538 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 2: forgets the attention and you know, is moving on as 539 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 2: like an all time great. Their defense was so damn good. 540 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: This was as and the improvement. Where was Hawaii two 541 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: three years ago? There were nothing? Chow drove them into 542 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 2: the ocean and they went seven and seven. First year 543 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 2: coach Nick Rolovitch, you wouldn't let players sit down, Okay, 544 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 2: Bob Davey New Mexico nine win, New Mexico. 545 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: Where were they? I love the Mountain West. I love 546 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 1: the mount West football shout out to Jeremy Moss. Okay, 547 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: all right, lay down that track for me. 548 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 2: It's very sexy. I know it really is because this 549 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 2: item is the Big Twelve continuing to go through. 550 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: The state of Oklahoma to win it. Wow, this is 551 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: the Big Well really coming back to how do we 552 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: all feel about Texas, isn't it? Well? 553 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 2: How do you feel about Texas? How do you feel 554 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 2: about TCU? How do you feel about improving Kansas? How 555 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 2: do you feel about the wizardry of get well ozoned? 556 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 2: Bill Snyder? Yeah, okay, this is coming back for Kansas. 557 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 2: They return a lot Kansas state, all right, So here 558 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 2: are your options here? You didn't say Oklahoma sooners, he said, 559 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 2: the state of Oklahoma, the state of because there has 560 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 2: recently been a ton riding on that Bedlam game. 561 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: All right, So let's go through m hm. How many 562 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: states are involved here in the Big twelve. We've got 563 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,479 Speaker 1: the great state of Oklahoma, of course, right. We've got 564 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: the great state of West Virginia, the Mountaineer state borders 565 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,919 Speaker 1: my state of Pennsylvania. We've got Kansas, great state of Kansas, 566 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: the Sunflower State, I believe, Okay, capital Topeka between k 567 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: state and Kansas. We've also got Iowa, yep. 568 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: In Iowa State. 569 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: And then we've got Texas with TCU Texas, Texas Tech, 570 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: and Baylor. HM, so I think we can start picking 571 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: teams off right away. It's not gonna be Baylor, it's 572 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: not gonna be Texas Tech. So that leaves two teams 573 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: in the great state of Texas. I don't think it's 574 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: going to run through West Virginia. I don't think it's 575 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: going to run through Kansas, and I certainly don't think 576 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: it's going to run through Iowa, which means that it 577 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: comes down to either Oklahoma or Texas, as it often 578 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: does in the Big Twelve. I feel at this point 579 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: that there is much more continuity on the Oklahoma Oklahoma 580 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: state side than I do on the TCU slash Texas 581 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: side of things. So gun to my head, at this point, 582 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: the safer bet is clearly Oklahoma. 583 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 2: It's not as sure a bet. 584 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: On the Oklahoma side as I'd like it to be 585 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: to feel truly comfortable about it. 586 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 2: It runs through the state of Oklahoma, that is. I'm 587 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 2: not just saying twenty seventeen. I'm just saying, this is 588 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: the reality of the Big twelve. Oh reality, Wow, the reality. 589 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: This is it. This is where we are in life. 590 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: I gotta believe Tom Herman is going to build up Texas. 591 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: But I feel like we've said that the last like 592 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,239 Speaker 1: eight years about Texas. Oh there's still right. That's been 593 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: the tagline for me. Texas is still Texas. Oh, don't worry, 594 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: they'll be back. They haven't been back. Dan, it should 595 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: be easier. 596 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 2: I realize it should be something to note though Bedlam 597 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 2: November fourth this coming year, it is not the final 598 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 2: week of the season. I think the state will be hosting. 599 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a championship game I believe so technically 600 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: it will be going through the state of Texas. But 601 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 2: in terms of the top of the conference. I like 602 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 2: West Virginia a little bit. I like West Virginia. West 603 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 2: Virginia has I think country roads taking you home. 604 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: Here. 605 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 2: I listen big Bill Greer, okay stepping in in Morgantown 606 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: at some point, who even knows. But they finished the 607 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: season in Norman. They've got Texas in West Virginia. I mean, 608 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 2: Texas is going to be in Morgantown. They're on the 609 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 2: road in Manhattan, which is where good teams go to die. 610 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 2: We know that this is fact, but they have Oklahoma 611 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 2: State in Morgantown. It's a good year to go to 612 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 2: McLean and play Baylor. They have Texas Tech in Morgantown 613 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 2: with a new quarterback. They do go to AM and 614 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 2: g Carter. I think West Virginia is going to be 615 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a fun team defense take another step 616 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 2: forward last year. There's continuity in Morgantown, which is very 617 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 2: strange to say. 618 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: But do you think it's going to run through West 619 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: Virginia forever more? 620 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: I don't know, that's the question. I think now the 621 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 2: question is Oklahoma. It's not West the state of so 622 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 2: the state is Oklahoma. 623 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: I say, yes, this is the reality. This is it. 624 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 2: I say it's it too. 625 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is me bucking the trend here, by the way, 626 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: I like it. The trend for me has always been 627 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: to go pro Texas. So for me to say this 628 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: represents a turning over, a new, big change. I appreciate it, all. 629 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: Right, Dan. 630 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: Not all ingredients are created equally, no no, no, no, no, 631 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: fresh high quality stuff.

And we're 688 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 2: doing this again, aren't we. 689 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: Yes. 690 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 2: I'm not going to ask you to pronounce anything. I'm 691 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 2: just going to ask you if you've heard of and 692 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 2: or eaten a food. I'm going to say the food 693 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 2: into this microphone in front of me, and then I 694 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 2: want you to play the drum roll sound. 695 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: So I don't know if you have to load that 696 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: up and drum roll, drum roll, drum roll. 697 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 2: Where is it? 698 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: Ty? 699 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 2: Have you ever eaten and or heard of soup dumplings? 700 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 1: Yes? 701 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 2: I have. You've had a soup pumpling or you've heard 702 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: of a soup dumping both? Where did you have soup dumplings? 703 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 2: I'm in PA Dutch country. Dumplings are a thing. M 704 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be very specific. Soup dumplings are Asian generally, 705 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 2: I believe Chinese. I'm not talking about dumplings in soup. TI. 706 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 2: Get ready for your mind to be blown. I am 707 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 2: talking about soup inside of dumplings that you can either 708 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 2: slurp out with a straw or you put the whole 709 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 2: dumpling into your mouth. It's more it's sort of like 710 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 2: a noodle pouch that has broth inside of it. 711 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. See, I didn't know about that part. Ah, I've 712 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 1: had dumplings before. I appreciated the confidence. Obviously, I've heard 713 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: of dumplings. Yeah, of course, I did not assume the 714 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 1: us like. No, No, they are extraordinary. It remind me, 715 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,399 Speaker 1: are they like those gushers? Remember I used to buy 716 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: the gushers. 717 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 2: Tight in a lot of what they're like Chinese savory gushers. Okay, right, 718 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 2: they're bigger and it's almost like maybe the size of 719 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,800 Speaker 2: a little bigger than a golf ball. I would say, okay, 720 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 2: that's a bigger gusher. Then yeah, But they get like 721 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 2: it's in the the broth is very hot because it's 722 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 2: it's trapped in there pretty well. It's sealed in by 723 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 2: the noodle dumpling noodle. And sometimes you'll see like, you know, 724 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 2: a pork broth, a chicken broth, you know, crab broth. 725 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: Soup dumplings. 726 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 2: Huh. 727 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: Okay, it's a weird sensation. They're wonderful. So the answer 728 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: is no, it is it is. That's okay. 729 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 2: Next time you're in New York, we're against some soupy dumps. 730 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 2: Where are we going next? 731 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: Next item? Tie lay down that track. 732 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 2: Ty is the reality in which we live, a reality 733 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 2: in which Michigan is the perennial bridesmaid. Is Michigan the 734 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 2: perennial bridesmaid? Is Michigan going to continue to come up 735 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 2: just short in their own division, conference, and national stage 736 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 2: and not compete for huge bowl wins? And yes, the 737 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 2: Orange Bowl is a thing. I'm saying Bigger than that, 738 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 2: I'm saying winning the conference getting to the playoff is 739 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 2: Michigan as they are currently constituted, and as they project forward, 740 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 2: a team that is very good but not cracking great. 741 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 2: I don't know if Jim Harbaugh has a winning record 742 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 2: against rank teams. I might have to look that up. 743 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 2: It's not great. Perennially is a long time. 744 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 1: Okay. I'm not comfortable saying perennially because I do believe 745 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: that before long, Jim Harbaugh is going to have them, 746 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:58,720 Speaker 1: have them perin. 747 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm saying the reality is right now, they're 748 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:04,240 Speaker 2: a bridesmaid of sorts. 749 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 1: The reality in the current moment, though, is yes, and 750 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: there are a lot of questions about where that team goes. 751 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: They certainly lose a lot of talent. There are questions, 752 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 1: I think more immediately at quarterback wide open battle, I 753 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: would say. 754 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, where does the offense go? 755 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 1: So for that reason, I'm inclined to say in the 756 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,959 Speaker 1: short term anyway, the bridesmaid thing probably holds. But perennially, 757 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: assuming Jim Harbaughs sticks around for longer than like four years, 758 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: I would expect that they would be competing at a 759 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: very high level. So I'm not comfortable calling them a 760 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: bridesmaid for any period of time beyond twenty seventeen. 761 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 2: I only say bride'smaid in terms of them being very 762 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 2: very good, but not great. And this year was a 763 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: relatively fortunate schedule early on and then tests a little 764 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 2: bit later and faltered. They have a bit of a 765 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,760 Speaker 2: rebuilding project. Yeah, with an open quarterback battle, the offensive 766 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 2: line needs to be rebuilt. They lose a ton of 767 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 2: big contributors on defense, particularly in the back end Pepper's 768 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 2: and Jordan Lewis Jake, but excuse me on offense and 769 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 2: a couple big receivers gone. I'm going to say with 770 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 2: how well Ohio State is recruiting and the promise of 771 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 2: Ohio State scoring multiple points in a bowl game, moving forward. 772 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 2: I'm going to say right now, it is hard for 773 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: me to with confidence and authority say that the reality 774 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 2: of Michigan as a bridesmaid will change. So I'm going 775 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 2: to say once again, this is it. You just want 776 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,840 Speaker 2: to hear the sound. Maybe maybe not. 777 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: I think in the short term the bride'smaid thing holds. 778 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 1: But beyond twenty seventeen, yeah, a lot can go wrong. 779 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 1: A lot can go wrong. At some point, Ohio State 780 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: is going to have to change out their quarterback. Now 781 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: that's not to say JT. Barrett did them a whole 782 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: lot of favors in twenty sixteen, but at some point 783 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 1: they're going to have some turnover. You just you never know. 784 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: Penn State, I still feel like seeing things can go 785 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: south for Trace McSorley, depending on how the composition of 786 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: that offense changes beyond twenty seventeen. So I don't know 787 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 1: where Joe Moo is going to be in a couple 788 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: of years. Joemo Saquon has probably gone after a year. 789 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: They have rebuilt the offensive line, but I don't know. 790 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: There are still too many moving parts in the Big 791 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: Ten East for me to feel like I want to, 792 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: you know, call Michigan a perennial bridesmaid. 793 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 2: So no, it is nice. And we should note that 794 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 2: neither one of us mentioned Michigan state, which is fantasy 795 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 2: things points for me twenty seventeen. We've already established that 796 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 2: I've won that. But this is true, and take it 797 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 2: from me real life experience. I am marrying a perennial 798 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:55,760 Speaker 2: Michigan bridesmaid. So she's been a bridesmaid like twelve times, 799 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 2: and she found her night in shining plaid. I wear 800 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 2: a lot of plaid, so this could be the year. 801 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 2: Then twenty seven could be the year. Absolutely, So who 802 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 2: am I to say that would favor my side of 803 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 2: the argument. Then this is true? Yeah, okay, now okay, 804 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 2: next lay down that track. Washington Washington Huskies are a 805 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 2: perennial Pac twelve contender and every three to four year 806 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 2: playoff team. Ooh, is this a reality in which we live? 807 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: Every three to four years a playoff team? So basically 808 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 2: like Oregon was in the Pac twelve North, competing for 809 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 2: the conference a year and a year out dominating to 810 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 2: a certain extent, and I believe Oregon made two national 811 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 2: championship appearances, would have made a playoff appearance in twenty 812 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 2: ten had it existed then, but in that sort of 813 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 2: range of maybe flopping with USC or Stanford kind of thing. 814 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: All right, So here, I think is a cruel reality 815 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: of college football. It is very difficult to be Alabama 816 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: or Ohio State. Yeah, Alabama and Ohio State. If you 817 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,879 Speaker 1: look at what they've done recently, those are the two 818 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: best teams in college football, right two best programs in 819 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: college football. Let's say, two healthiest programs right now in terms. Man, 820 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how you leave Clemson two straight National 821 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: Championship Game appearances. 822 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 2: Clemson's in the discussion for sure. 823 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: Man, I just okay, all right, I would put them 824 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 1: third personally, not because they didn't get to that game, 825 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: but because I feel like urban Meyer, Nick Saban, they 826 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: will outlast everybody. Okay, so they're like, maybe that's a 827 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: bad argument, but apocalyptic twinkies, that's right, thank you. They're 828 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 1: gonna survive. 829 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 2: Thank you, my ealyptic twinkies. Okay. 830 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't feel like Washington is quite in that 831 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: discussion yet. 832 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 2: They could get there. They could get there. 833 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,720 Speaker 1: Chris Peterson is a very very talented head football coach. 834 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: He's a brilliant mind. He's won everywhere he's been. I 835 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: am not ready to commit to them being on that 836 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:04,359 Speaker 1: normal rotation. They will definitely be more competitive than we've 837 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 1: seen at any point in maybe the last twenty years 838 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: Washington football, but every three to four years competing for 839 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,919 Speaker 1: a playoff spot, that to me is a bridge too far. 840 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 2: So I'm going to see no. I'm to see no. 841 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 2: I am going to say in terms of development and 842 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 2: coaching and identification of talent, I think the parameters are 843 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 2: there to do so. I think the first part is true. 844 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 2: I don't think the second part is true. The playoff 845 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:34,919 Speaker 2: thing is where I have some trouble. I think they're 846 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 2: going to be a perennial Pac twelve contender. I think 847 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 2: they win ten games more often than not, as long 848 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 2: as Chris Peterson is in Seattle. My problem with Washington 849 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 2: is I question the talent and depth they'll be able 850 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 2: to build to be at or near the top nationally 851 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 2: for three to four years. Because as good as you 852 00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 2: know talent is on the West Coast, I still think 853 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,359 Speaker 2: they're competing against a Stanford staff that you know, may 854 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,720 Speaker 2: have put together the most pound four pound talented class 855 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,240 Speaker 2: in the country. The only thing I like twelve recruits 856 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 2: or something like that, but just a ridiculous class that's 857 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 2: going to be tough for them. I don't think Oregon 858 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 2: is a four to eight team moving forward, and that 859 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 2: is just going to be a difficulty. They've still lost 860 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,439 Speaker 2: whatever it is, thirteen or fourteen to Oregon, and there's 861 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 2: a lot of talent in Eugene. Washington State is a 862 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 2: tricky team. And then you have a USC team that 863 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 2: you know, at least for the next year, has a 864 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,800 Speaker 2: Heisman caliber quarterback and they're recruiting on a crazy level. 865 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,399 Speaker 2: I think the Pac twelve that there's enough parody there 866 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,320 Speaker 2: that it's hard to confidently say the second part of 867 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 2: that is true. 868 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 1: So I'm going to say this is not it. Is 869 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: there another conference in college football that presents as varied 870 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 1: a threat from week to week as the Pac twelve. 871 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: That's part of my issue with right really christening anyone 872 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: in the PAC twelve in this you know, perennial contender category. Sure, 873 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: you've got a team like Wazoo, which is going to 874 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: spread you out and go air raid, and you've got 875 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: a team like Stanford, which is just going to try 876 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 1: and beat your brains in. You've got a team like 877 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: Oregon which at least in recent tradition, has been very spread, 878 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:14,240 Speaker 1: almost a little run pass option oriented. You've got USC, 879 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: which is very pro style. You've got Utah, which just 880 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: beats your brains in with defense. USC's movement has moved 881 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 1: away from sort of pro style recently with Sam Darnold. 882 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 2: But yeah, you get the point. 883 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: Just a very threat from week to week that's really 884 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: tough to prepare for. And so even if you've got 885 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: the most talent in the world, there's always that threat 886 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: that if you got someone on the road, after a 887 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: team like a Stanford, after a team like a Utah, 888 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: even a USC or an Oregon, some team can jump 889 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 1: up and snipe you. So it's tough for me to 890 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: commit to that for pretty much anybody in college football, 891 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 1: but certainly in a conference like the Pac twelve, where 892 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 1: it's it's very easy to drop a game when you 893 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: least expect it. 894 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would also say in the Pac twelve, I 895 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 2: think more than any other conference. Maybe I'm wrong about this, 896 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 2: but this is my general feeling. Every team seems too 897 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 2: you have, maybe with the exception of Oregon State had 898 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 2: a very good recent quarterback, So it feels like you're 899 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,359 Speaker 2: always going to get some sort of combination of two 900 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 2: or three straight games with very good quarterback play year 901 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 2: and a year out that I don't see in other 902 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 2: conferences necessarily. But maybe it's just a West Coast bias thing. 903 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 2: I'm totally open to that, but that's my feeling. 904 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 1: There are no games that you can sleep on in 905 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: the PAC twelve, sure, so I think we're in agreement 906 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: here in No. The only other point that I would add, Dan, 907 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 1: if you're looking for the best night's sleep that you've 908 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 1: had in a while, always, why don't you look at Casper? Oh, great, call, 909 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: It's not a ghost. It's a mattress, Dan. It's an 910 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:46,800 Speaker 1: obsessively engineered mattress at a shockingly fair price, supportive memory foams. 911 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,760 Speaker 1: They create an award winning sleep surface, just the right sink, 912 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: just the right bounce for your money. Time magazine named 913 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: it one of the best inventions of twenty fifteen, which 914 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 1: wasn't all that long ago, Dan. Plus, now you can 915 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:04,359 Speaker 1: try Casper for one hundred one zero zero night's risk 916 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 1: free in your own home. 917 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 2: So if you don't love it, they will come. 918 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,800 Speaker 1: They'll pick it up, they'll refund you everything because they understand, 919 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 1: you know, the importance of really sleeping on a mattress 920 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 1: before you commit to it, especially considering you're gonna spend 921 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 1: one third of your life on it. Now. I have 922 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 1: not done the math. Casper has been with us for 923 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 1: a while. I'm going to assume that they are correct 924 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: in saying one third of your life if you assume 925 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,319 Speaker 1: eight hours sleep per night, which is wishful thinking for me, 926 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,240 Speaker 1: but a lot of other normal humans can actually achieve 927 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 1: eight hours a night twenty four hours in a day. 928 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,359 Speaker 2: You do the math, that's about That's about right. 929 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 1: Sure that sounds. How's your sleep been recently? Tie? 930 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 2: Awful? 931 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: What is going on with you? 932 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 2: Ty? I never sleep? 933 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: I'm like mom age, it's the best drug there I need, 934 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,760 Speaker 1: like a horse tranquilizer or put me to sleep. 935 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 2: You don't look at your phone? 936 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 1: No, I mean I do, but only once I know 937 00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 1: I'm awake. Okay, you've tried every position. 938 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:01,959 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. 939 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't matter. 940 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. 941 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: Temperatures doesn't matter. 942 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, a solid wife have temperature preferences that 943 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 2: are screwing up yourself. 944 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 1: The solid wife could sleep through a nuclear apocalypse. 945 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,400 Speaker 2: Okay, me, it just it's it's not even worth trying. 946 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 2: What about like white noise? Have you tried the white 947 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,239 Speaker 2: noise thing? I know, we've talked about pizziz. The problem 948 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 2: is not falling asleep. I can fall asleep. The problem 949 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 2: is once I'm up, I'm staying up. 950 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 1: That's my issue. Maybe Casper can solve it. I've not 951 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 1: tried Casper yet. We got to get on that Casper 952 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: train for you. Then, I think it might be a 953 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: mattress thing. There might be something to you sinking in perfectly, 954 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,919 Speaker 1: think really finding your zone, your ram zone. I haven't 955 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 1: thought about this before, but maybe. 956 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 2: Do you sleep on your back? Do you sleep on 957 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 2: your stomach? 958 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 1: Usually on my right shoulder. I'm a side sleeper. 959 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 2: Hold on, I'm gonna picture my I have weird dreams 960 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 2: when I sleep on my right shoulder. I'm a left 961 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 2: shoulder guy. Yeah, mhmm. You ever noticed that when you 962 00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 2: face a different direction, your dreams are stranger? 963 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 1: They left side sleepers are the only people in their 964 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 1: right minds. Really, I don't know. I just that was 965 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:05,959 Speaker 1: that was good. 966 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,280 Speaker 2: You had me totally convinced. 967 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay. Free shipping and returns to the US and 968 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: Canada over twenty thousand reviews. 969 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 2: An average of four point eight stars. 970 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:19,439 Speaker 1: It is quickly becoming the Internet's favorite mattress right now, 971 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 1: get fifty bucks towards any mattress purchase by visiting Casper 972 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:27,400 Speaker 1: dot Comcasper dot com slash of verbal and use the 973 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 1: offer code verbal Casper dot Com slash verbal offer code 974 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:35,319 Speaker 1: verbal terms and conditions.

What was the question again? I'm sorry, I got, 984 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:07,879 Speaker 2: I got. The SEC East remains just totally underwhelming. 985 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 1: I don't even even think about that. Yeah, Oh it's wonderful. 986 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 1: Should I go, Max Kellerman? Next topic here? Next topic? 987 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,080 Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's give this. It's due the teams 988 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: in the SEC East. For those of you playing along 989 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 1: at home, We've got Florida, Tennessee, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Vandy. 990 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 2: And Missou. I am Florida. 991 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 1: Finished very strongly on the recruiting trail. There was a 992 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: lot of doubt about how Florida was going to do 993 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:43,400 Speaker 1: in recruiting, and there's a fair amount of internet commentary 994 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 1: about how they have underwhelmed on that front. Now, they 995 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 1: did close in a very strong fashion, so we'll give 996 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 1: them benefit of the doubt. But so far anyway, it 997 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: seems as if they've had some trouble building up an offense. 998 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna wait to reserve judgment on Florida. Defensively, 999 00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 1: the been very stout, but offensively they've underwhelmed, so I'm 1000 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 1: not I'm not feeling in on the On the Florida front, 1001 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 1: Tennessee loses a fair amount, and I think it's not 1002 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 1: without reason that people have doubted whether or not Butch 1003 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: Jones can win the big one, whether or not he 1004 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 1: can take this program to the next level. Georgia, you 1005 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 1: might remember, just fired their coach two years ago. I 1006 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: happen to like Kirby Smart, happened to like what he's 1007 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,720 Speaker 1: done on the recruiting trail, and I really like Jacob Eason. 1008 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,759 Speaker 1: But if the only team that I really feel good 1009 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:29,800 Speaker 1: about in the SEC East is Georgia. 1010 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not getting I'm not getting worked up, especially 1011 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 2: because I tend to look at quarterback and South Carolina 1012 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 2: has a promising quarterback situation, so there's upward trajectory. There 1013 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 2: some upward trajectory from Vandy, Kentucky, Tennessee, Florida. I just 1014 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,879 Speaker 2: I'm not feeling too much, even if there's decent enough 1015 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 2: quarterback play about these teams as a whole. Georgia improving. 1016 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 2: But we'll see what Jacob E's in, big arm, big talent. 1017 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 2: They've got Jake from State Farm coming in. Yeah, I'm 1018 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 2: going to say, this is it, This is just this 1019 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 2: is what we got. Oh my god. 1020 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 1: We agree and you just love that sound, but I do. 1021 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 1: I said it was not it last time. Yeah, okay, 1022 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 1: here is the bug in the ointment though, Hey me, 1023 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: you said underwhelmed. Underwhelm's a relative term. Life is nothing 1024 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:20,200 Speaker 1: if not expectation based. 1025 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 2: Right. 1026 00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:22,760 Speaker 1: You go into a movie, you don't know what it's about, 1027 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 1: you don't have any expectations for it. More often than that, 1028 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 1: you come out feeling like, yeah, I just saw a 1029 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 1: good movie. Mm hm. 1030 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 2: The question is because the bar has been so low 1031 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:32,959 Speaker 2: for the. 1032 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 1: Sec East, Now, what is your threshold for being underwhelmed. 1033 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 2: I want three good teams, Okay, given the talent in 1034 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 2: the area in the Southeast, given what they bring in, 1035 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 2: given how much they're paying their coaches and the staffs, 1036 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 2: I want three good teams, right, that's not too much 1037 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 2: to ask, no, And also, look at the West right now, 1038 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 2: you have Alabama great, you have Auburn turnover. You have 1039 00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 2: LSU turnover and underwhelming quarter back play. Auburn with Jared 1040 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 2: Stidham should be better. Texts A and M totally up 1041 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 2: in the air. Arkansas, you have no idea what you're getting. 1042 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,919 Speaker 2: Mississippi State they're fine, they're not Mississippi State with dak 1043 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 2: Ole miss took a big step back last year, a 1044 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 2: really awful recruiting class, and they're up in the air 1045 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 2: as well. So this would be a year or reality 1046 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 2: in the short term for the SEC eas to make 1047 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 2: a move. So that's why there is optimism within the 1048 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 2: context of the conference. I just I'm not getting worked up. Ty, Okay, 1049 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 2: what else we got one? I've got one final situation. 1050 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:35,400 Speaker 1: There. It is. 1051 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:41,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, Oregon and Notre Dame, oh God, are behind the 1052 00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:44,840 Speaker 2: national pack, period. 1053 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: And that is the reality in which we live. 1054 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 2: Behind the pack. Yes, two teams that went four and eight. 1055 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 2: In case you missed it, twenty sixteen, Oregon made a change. 1056 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,319 Speaker 2: Notre Dame made many changes on the staff, but not 1057 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 2: at the top. Oregon and Notre Dame are just behind 1058 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:06,160 Speaker 2: the National power Pack. After being in the conversation for 1059 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 2: a good amount of time. 1060 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 1: All right, so the National power Pack, are we going 1061 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: to assume that's the top ten team. 1062 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:18,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say top fifteen to twenty. Okay, So both 1063 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 2: of these teams bringing in a ton of new faces, 1064 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 2: Oregon more so on the coaching side, and return a 1065 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,960 Speaker 2: ton on the field, but that also means very bad defense. 1066 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:28,880 Speaker 2: And even in the short term in the next two 1067 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:32,440 Speaker 2: three years, it's hard to sort of point to specific relief. 1068 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 2: Notre Dame maybe more of. 1069 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: A cultural ment meltdown, a little distrust between the coaches 1070 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,439 Speaker 1: and players and vice versa. Bringing in new quarterback after 1071 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,359 Speaker 1: Deshaun Kaiser declares for the draft, defense takes a big 1072 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 1: step back, but an infusion of new blood and scheme 1073 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 1: and culture is what's hoped for in South Bend. 1074 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:56,839 Speaker 2: Wow, this is an excellent question, Dan Yea, because as 1075 00:53:56,840 --> 00:54:00,160 Speaker 2: we both know, it doesn't take much to slip it 1076 00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 2: doesn't in college football, it doesn't. So I think we 1077 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:09,759 Speaker 2: had two different circumstances this year. Oregon had declined. 1078 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:13,759 Speaker 1: I don't know if they really caught you by surprise, right, 1079 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 1: You had kind of been reading the writing on the wall, 1080 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: for we knew the defense a while it was in 1081 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 1: a We knew the defense was in a very bad place. 1082 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: And you were never sold on Mark Helfrich as a 1083 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 1: head football coach. He was never like the second coming 1084 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 1: of Chip Kelly. Correct, So it didn't really catch you 1085 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 1: by surprise. What happened at Notre Dame caught a lot 1086 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 1: of folks by surprise, myself included even people that follow 1087 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 1: Notre Dame football. I think there was an expectation that 1088 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 1: the defense could take a step back, that the offense 1089 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:45,680 Speaker 1: could have a bit of a feeling out period. But 1090 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: the degree to which Notre Dame imploded was something that 1091 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 1: really caught people flat footed. As part of the reason 1092 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 1: why the four and eight joke is still kind of funny. Right, 1093 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 1: So these are two programs that are in different situations. 1094 00:54:57,960 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 2: I feel like there is still. 1095 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:04,680 Speaker 1: Enough place at Notre Dame talent wise that they can 1096 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:06,919 Speaker 1: kind of pick up where they left off the year 1097 00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 1: prior and find their way back into the top fifteen 1098 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 1: this coming season. Oregon, Dan, you got to tell me, Oregon, 1099 00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 1: it feels like, structurally, in terms of talent, in terms 1100 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 1: of schematics, logistics, you name it, it feels like there 1101 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: might have been more wrong on the Oregon side than 1102 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 1: on the Notre Dame side, which just kind of went 1103 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 1: boom all at once. Yeah, Oregon, culturally it was sort 1104 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 1: of a mess, and that was the sort of understated 1105 00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 1: story of the past couple of years. And Vernon Adams 1106 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 1: did a really good job turning the offense into something 1107 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: pretty big a couple of years ago. 1108 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 2: But this past year, true freshman quarterbacks surrounded by a 1109 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,240 Speaker 2: lot of talent. There's the offense is loaded. Oregon's offense 1110 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 2: coming back this year. They basically because their starting left 1111 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,720 Speaker 2: tackle got hurt pretty early on. They returned five starting 1112 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:54,160 Speaker 2: offensive linemen, which is a good place to be in. 1113 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 2: And it's Mario Crystobal, who is a very very good 1114 00:55:57,200 --> 00:56:01,720 Speaker 2: offensive line coach, you know, a nationally I think associate whatever. 1115 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 2: They return a ton of skill talent, including Royce Freeman. 1116 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 2: They've got a starting quarterback and Justin Herbert. Defensively, there's 1117 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 2: still a mess. There's not much good about the defense 1118 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 2: other than the fact that it is starting from scratch 1119 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 2: with Jim Levitt going back to A three to four, 1120 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,319 Speaker 2: which they are better suited for because what they were 1121 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:19,879 Speaker 2: really bad running A three to four of the year 1122 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:24,040 Speaker 2: before under Don Pelham. So I think it's fair to 1123 00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 2: assume that they will be much improved. But I can't 1124 00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 2: say with authority right now looking at both of these rosters, 1125 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 2: Notre Dames, which you obviously know better, in Organs, which 1126 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 2: I know better. Right now, the reality is Notre Dame 1127 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 2: and Oregon, given the questions, given the new faces, and 1128 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,320 Speaker 2: the uncertainty, I'm going to say this is the reality. 1129 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 1: This is it. They're behind. I don't feel like Notre 1130 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:57,440 Speaker 1: Dame is behind quite yet, okay, but there is limitless 1131 00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 1: potential for them to fall behindding how twenty seventeen goes, 1132 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 1: this is a very discussible situation for Notre Dame. I 1133 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,960 Speaker 1: happen to think they will be okay, and I think 1134 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: they've got the talent to be top fifteen Oregon. I 1135 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: feel like with a new coach to call them top 1136 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 1: fifteen for twenty seventeen, I'm not feeling that. 1137 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 2: Maybe how many confidence games? How many confidence games do 1138 00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 2: you have? 1139 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1140 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 2: I think Oregon finished like number twenty one or something 1141 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 2: like that and go eight befour or whatever. How many 1142 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 2: confidence games do you have about Notre Dame right now? 1143 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 2: Because I count confidence two and a half three games 1144 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,439 Speaker 2: where I can say with authority Notre Dame one percent 1145 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 2: should win. And that's Boston College, Miami of Ohio, and 1146 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 2: some combination of NC State or Wake Forest. All right, 1147 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 2: read it off to me. 1148 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 1: Read the schedule off to me. 1149 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 2: In twenty seven. So so we have at home to 1150 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 2: start the season, Temple and then Georgia. 1151 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 1: Okay, Georgia is a tough game. 1152 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 2: Those are I'm not going to confidently say that Temple is, 1153 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,920 Speaker 2: you know, going down to Notre Dame. Temple almost beat 1154 00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:05,120 Speaker 2: Penn State last year. That should be a win. Okay, 1155 00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 2: you're more confident than I am at Boston College, at 1156 00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 2: Michigan State, which Notre Dame barely, not barely, they got by. 1157 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 1: They didn't get by in Michigan State. 1158 00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 2: At North Carolina new quarterback, but Carolina has been a 1159 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 2: pretty decent program. USC at home, I don't have much 1160 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:29,040 Speaker 2: confidence there. They're at Miami. It'll be good game. I 1161 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 2: just the confidence isn't there for me? Navy who can 1162 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 2: say with confidence about that? And at Stanford I would 1163 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,320 Speaker 2: be shocked if they went ten and two. I would 1164 00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 2: probably be shocked at ten and two as well. 1165 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I feel like the talent is there for 1166 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 1: them to potentially do it here. And like I said, 1167 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 1: there was less wrong with Notre Dame structurally than there 1168 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 1: was at Oregon. sEH, I'm the twine to say this 1169 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,439 Speaker 1: is not it. I feel more confident in Notre Dame 1170 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 1: getting there, not falling behind the pack than I do Oregon. 1171 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 2: All Right, this is not it, Dan, we disagreed. Disagree 1172 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 2: more if I made side before we conclude this episode, 1173 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 2: unless you want it to add anything.

Cake is 1199 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 2: for children's birthday parties and uncreative weddings. 1200 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 1: That's me. That's what my thought is. 1201 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 2: Everybody is entitled to their opinion, but I will say 1202 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:22,760 Speaker 2: this about cake. There are certain kinds of cake, especially 1203 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 2: the ones that are frostingless or limited to sort of glazes, 1204 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 2: like your kingcake that's found in New Orleans around Marty 1205 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 2: Grot time, some of your bunts I can get down 1206 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 2: with where it's just sort of like there's a little 1207 01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 2: bit of icing dripping down, a little maybe TRANSLUCENTI ish, 1208 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:42,320 Speaker 2: what about cheesecake, sort of a hybrid kind of cake. 1209 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 2: Cheesecake is fine, I don't need it in my life, Okay, 1210 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 2: all right, but if cheesecake is placed in front of me, 1211 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:53,000 Speaker 2: sure I'll have some cheese. 1212 01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 1: Here. A cake hedger right now is what I'm hearing. 1213 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 1: I'm here, a little bit of a cake, A tea cake, 1214 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've ever had tea cake, be 1215 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 1: very good. A crumb cake, coffee cake, that kind of 1216 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 1: thing I'm down with. So this is like the Bubba 1217 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,680 Speaker 1: scene now in Forrest Gump, where you're listing to all 1218 01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:14,680 Speaker 1: the kinds of cake, but your standard issue wedding cake, 1219 01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:19,880 Speaker 1: supermarket cake, rectanglear circle covered in frosting with things written 1220 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 1: on top, and your sort of floury icing ribbons surrounding everything. 1221 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 1: I don't think that that has any place in American society. Listen, 1222 01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:33,520 Speaker 1: I don't care how you feel about cake.

Option A, right is that 1227 01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:50,680 Speaker 1: you took guph for this on Twitter or via email 1228 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 1: or wherever. Option B is that you are an obsessed 1229 01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 1: foodie who thought about this for the last seven days. 1230 01:01:57,600 --> 01:01:59,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so this was only yesterday that I thought about it. 1231 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 2: I have gotten mostly overwhelming positivity about donuts over cake. 1232 01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:06,440 Speaker 2: I was surprised by that, but I did see that 1233 01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:06,960 Speaker 2: as well. 1234 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 1: So I've gotten overwhelming positivity. 1235 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 2: But as somebody who wants to remain as honorable and 1236 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 2: truthful to foods is humanly possible, I wanted to clarify 1237 01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:21,200 Speaker 2: because it's not fair for me to put out there 1238 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 2: that I don't like cake and to have people out 1239 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,680 Speaker 2: there listening to this show and think. 1240 01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 1: How does Dan not like kingcake?
