I'm right down the middle. I am 120 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 3: both impressed and not impressed about Texas Longhorns. 121 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, let's I think I'm going to go 122 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 2: with impressed.

I'm going to say I'm impressed, 124 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: not within the context of Texas's expectations for being excellent, 125 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: but impress that going to a backup quarterback as Hudson 126 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: Card has gotten healthier, he's looked better and better, and 127 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 2: to not really lose a step with your backup quarterback 128 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 2: who looks of starting quality, I'm impressed. 129 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: I'm definitely impressed. 130 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 3: By the way Catherine in the chat says, just to 131 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 3: kind of put a fine point on this thing. Yeah, 132 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 3: things that don't impress Shanaiah per the song are rocket 133 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 3: scientists having a car in Brad Pitt.

And perhaps they're less so this year, and 177 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: perhaps there's less trust with Jackson Dart at this stage 178 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 2: in his career with ole Miss running a more balanced offense. 179 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: But look whin how you can win and ole Miss's 180 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 2: defense was a nightmare three four years ago and right 181 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 2: now they were full on, very effective and strong against Kentucky, 182 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: and I think they will continue to do so. It's 183 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: just at this point, The question is if they do 184 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 2: have to throw the ball, if you can put eight 185 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: dudes in the box most of the game, what do 186 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 2: they look like in terms of that outpitch throwing the 187 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: ball downfielder adjusting at halftime with Jackson Dart, I'm impressed 188 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 2: by Ole Miss. 189 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I am as well. 190 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 3: The thing to watch with Old Miss though, and I 191 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: suspect we will see it a little bit more as 192 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 3: we go through their schedule now the rest of the way. 193 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 3: Maybe not this week at Vandy, maybe a little bit 194 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 3: next week against Auburn, but certainly as we get into 195 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 3: like LSU and Alabama and even Mississippi State a little 196 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 3: bit later on. Sure, the one thing that's really lagged 197 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 3: behind on the defensive side is the rush defense. 198 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, last year too, for at least the first half 199 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: of the year behind. 200 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 3: So they will play some teams with good offensive lines. 201 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 3: They will play some teams that could run the ball, 202 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: and that I think will be a pretty big test 203 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 3: for him. But we're I think we're in agreement. We're 204 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 3: both impressed by All Miss. 205 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: We're both impressed. 206 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 2: Although let's like the teams that they've played thus far 207 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: are who exactly right, It's UCF. 208 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 3: It's a guy named Troy, buff Zone dot Com, Troy, Central, Arkansas, 209 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 3: Georgia Tech, Tulsa, and Kentucky. 210 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: So we look at that and we say, all right, 211 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: they beat Kentucky. Do we know how impressed we should 212 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 2: be with the Kentucky win? Not fully, but I'd like 213 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: to see more of a catalog of wins at this point. 214 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: So I'm impressed, maybe not impressed much. 215 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 3: How about that that sounds let us know in the chat, 216 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 3: mister pizza coolisas ain't played nobody. 217 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it's a relatively reasonable criticism. 218 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jason says, eight dudes, okay. 219 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: Eight dudes in the box. Yeah I understand. 220 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, wheels are turning in the comments section, we 221 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: all get it. 222 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw the first part and not the last part. 223 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 3: What's our next team? 224 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 2: Okay, let me look at the list. I made up 225 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 2: my haphazard list. How about the Michigan Wolverines. So Michigan 226 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 2: with a very nice win. I will say, it's still 227 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 2: a very nice win to go to Iowa City, a 228 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: place they haven't won in what seventeen years? They haven't 229 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 2: won in Kinnick since two thousand and five. 230 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: House of horrors. 231 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: The expectation was they were going to struggle to score, 232 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 2: but they managed to, you know, by the end of 233 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: the game, get to twenty seven points and one in 234 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 2: a sensical way. They didn't push too much against a 235 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 2: strong Iowa defense, and their own defense did absolutely what 236 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: it needed to do against Iowa to win that game. 237 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: That said, didn't. 238 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 2: Really play anybody in the non conference portion of their 239 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 2: schedule back and forth against Maryland. So right now against 240 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 2: maybe the worst offense relative to winning and expectations in 241 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: America Iowa. Has Michigan impressed you much with how they've 242 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 2: performed against their schedule, I think so. 243 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. 244 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 3: I mean, look, you and I had a lengthy discussion 245 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 3: where I believe you called me a silly bitch last 246 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 3: week because that look, look, I just I just want 247 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 3: to get that on the record. We have it on 248 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 3: the record elsewhere. I just for the Spotify folks that 249 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 3: are here in attendance. 250 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 2: I'm not saying you are a silly bitch. I'm saying 251 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 2: you were acting like I was acting. Okay, Okay, important clarifications. No, 252 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: I mean they look fine at Iowa. I thought they 253 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 2: would look a little bit better on offense, but beggar 254 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: scampy choosers. 255 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. 256 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy was not put in a position where he 257 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 3: had to go out there and win the football game 258 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 3: he was calling. He was composed, the game plans seem good. 259 00:11:59,400 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 260 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 3: Granted the defense did most of the work or didn't 261 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 3: have to do much of the. 262 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: Work right at Spencers. 263 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how you know the what the 264 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: proper construction is to label the Iowa offense and how 265 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: it performs, But you know, the defense did its job, 266 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 3: kept that one relatively low scoring on the Iowa side, 267 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 3: as most defenses do. And JJ McCarthy was good, played 268 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 3: within himself. I do think there was a part of 269 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 3: me wanting more from the Michigan offense, and I am 270 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 3: curious to see as they get into some better games, 271 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 3: name Lee, Penn State, and Ohio State, if it's something 272 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 3: that comes back to bite them. 273 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to say they don't impress me much. 274 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: And it's not because of anything they've specifically done. It's 275 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 2: there's something that it's just looking at their schedule. So 276 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 2: you beat that non conference schedule, so you beat Iowa 277 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: with somehow the worst Iowa offense in history. You know, 278 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: worse than some other pretty notable ones beating Mary and 279 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: by you know, seven points or whatever. I'm going to say, 280 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: what Michigan has done has not impressed me much. I 281 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: think they are impressive, if that makes any sense, But 282 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 2: their accomplishments don't impress me much. 283 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: How about that? 284 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we've got a comment here in the 285 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 3: chat that Michigan has handled business at every turn. There 286 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 3: are countless examples of good teams letting bad ones hang 287 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 3: around this year. That's true, and I think that in 288 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 3: and of itself is grounds to be impressed. I think, 289 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 3: look my takeaway after the Iowa game, and I said 290 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 3: this on a radio show that I did with some 291 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 3: folks back home. 292 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: I could see Michigan being vulnerable. 293 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: I can see I can see a world in which 294 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: there's defense that can truly hold down JJ McCarthy confuse 295 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 3: him that you're left wanting that extra gear for your. 296 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: Remembering is it in a big game? 297 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 3: That being said, yeah, they're undefeated. That being said, they've 298 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 3: taken care of business, as our comments are said, at 299 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 3: every turn. And so it's hard to not be impressed 300 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: by Michigan. That doesn't mean that I don't have questions, 301 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 3: it's about you know what it looks like the rest 302 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 3: of the way. 303 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 2: So basically what you're saying, and if I may put 304 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: words in your mouth, Penn State or Illinois before Ohio State, 305 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: Penn State or Illinois. As for who that team is 306 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: when you say eventually there will be a defense, who X, 307 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 2: Y and Z. Illinois defense has been very good against 308 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 2: not a lot of teams, and Penn State has looked 309 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: at times strong on offense, Auburn game, at times strong 310 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: on defense, Northwestern game. 311 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean per the sp plus. 312 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, there are three top ten defenses remaining on Michigan 313 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 3: schedule in the form of Penn State, Ohio State, and 314 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 3: I cannot believe we're saying Illinois but Illinois. 315 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 2: We're on the Walters wagon here at the solid verbal Yeah. 316 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: So all right, so not impressed. 317 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: I am next team, by the way, at the answers Illinois, 318 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 3: Illinois look ahead spot Brett bi Illema, big ten weird, 319 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 3: Iowa tattoo. 320 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: I'm just saying right now, there's something about that game 321 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: that should be very scary to Michigan fans. I'm on 322 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 2: the record right now, and if Michigan blows out Illinois. 323 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: I was never on the record. 324 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: You're making this okay? Oh ex so bitch, the USC Trojans, 325 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: the Men of Troy. Do they impress you much? 326 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 2: Another team who is undefeated, who has taken care of 327 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 2: business at every turn. Now, there are some underlying reasons 328 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: to say, I don't know if this is a sustainable 329 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 2: way of winning. Some close scores at halftime, a lot 330 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 2: of turnovers, which again, if you can turn a team over, 331 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: you should, and that's what good teams do. 332 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: Are you impressed by USC. 333 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 2: Or USC's accomplishments or however you're interpreting that question, you 334 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 2: and Shania, me and Shania. 335 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 3: If only because I said I am impressed by all 336 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 3: the other teams and half impressed by Texas, I will 337 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 3: say no on USC, okay, for a couple of reasons. 338 00:15:55,400 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 3: First off, the defense. The questions about defense persist. It 339 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 3: doesn't go anywhere, right, it's still giving up points. Yeah, 340 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 3: you can score on USC. You can push them around 341 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: up front, you know, Like I actually think this week 342 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 3: against Washington State it's going to be an interesting go 343 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 3: buy for US because I don't think's got the best offense, 344 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 3: but he's got interesting players on offense who could make 345 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 3: some magic against USC. 346 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: So from the defensive side of the ball, no, I'm not. 347 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 3: Offensively, they were always going to be really good with 348 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 3: the players that they've had, and so it's hard to 349 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 3: impress me on offense because I set a very high 350 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 3: bar before the season, right, So I think on the 351 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 3: overall sentiment side, I would say, no. 352 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: That don't impress the name. 353 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 3: No, No, I mean they're turning the ball over like 354 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 3: crazy in a good way, right. 355 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: The defense is turning opposing off The. 356 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 3: Defense is having a lot of success when it comes 357 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 3: to turning the ball over or getting turnovers, and that 358 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 3: in and of itself is really really good for you know, 359 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 3: your prospects of winning. It's going to bode well for them. 360 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 3: I don't know if that's sustainable. Oftentimes it is not, 361 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 3: but that part of their defense has been good. But 362 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 3: they're still giving up a lot of points, still giving 363 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 3: up yards. 364 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. 365 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 3: In order for them, I think to really be taken 366 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 3: seriously as like a true contender in this thing and 367 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 3: not just a really good offense with a lot of 368 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,479 Speaker 3: nil money. Sure, you got to play a little bit 369 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,959 Speaker 3: more defense. They could get there. By the way they 370 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 3: could get there before the end of the season. But 371 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 3: they're not there yet. 372 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 2: I don't know if they're going to get there in 373 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 2: that specific way by the end of the year. I'm 374 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 2: actually going to say USC is impressive. And I go 375 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 2: back and forth on this, I'm going to say they're 376 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: impressive because what they go last year, four and eight? 377 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 1: What are they right now? I believe they're undefeated. 378 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: They're undefeated, They're five and l They struggled our offense 379 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 2: last year, they were injured, they had guys leaving the program, 380 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 2: There was discord within the locker room. There were all 381 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 2: sorts of issues that plagued the USC. Hire a new coach, 382 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 2: bring in all these players, and sure there is a 383 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 2: mercenary aspect to USC and the way that they've constructed 384 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 2: this roster. 385 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: But to throw all these players together. 386 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 2: Right, to throw last year's Oklahoma quarterback, to throw last 387 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 2: year's pit wide receiver, to throw last year's Oregon running back, 388 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 2: all in the same locker room and expected to succeed. 389 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 2: They've done it immediately. Now that's on offense. Caleb Williams. 390 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 2: Does he hold onto the ball too long? Perhaps? 391 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 3: Yes? 392 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 2: Is it going to cause four issues against Utah or whoever? 393 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: They end up playing. 394 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 2: If they end up in the PAC twelve Championship game, sure, 395 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 2: but if they're going from a program in complete disrepair 396 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 2: under Clay Helton to a program that looks like a 397 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 2: ten win program over the course of a matter of months, 398 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 2: I mean you have to give some credit there, right, 399 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: Even if the underlying numbers and stats are not necessarily sustainable. 400 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: It's still impressive. They'll blow it. 401 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 2: I mean, it's Notre Dame in Utah. Oh right, you 402 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 2: know they'll blow it. Yeah, but it's year one now. 403 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 2: I know their expectations, given the high profile nature of 404 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 2: the hire and bringing in Caleb Williams and Mario Williams 405 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 2: and Jordan Att all these guys, but certainly winning is 406 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: better than losing. It is so that impresses me that 407 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: throwing in all of those pieces and ending up with 408 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 2: the zero in the lost column, I'm impressed. 409 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 3: Sorry, Sam urges a little bit of patience in saying 410 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: that we should wait to December to truly judge where 411 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 3: all things are on the US. See Alexander in the 412 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 3: chat saying Caleb Williams is impressive. Yeah, I would agree, 413 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 3: because Caleb Williams is really, really good, certified dude, I 414 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 3: would encourage folks, if you are ever so inclined, send 415 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 3: in your speaker requests now, if you've got something to 416 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 3: say on this matter, or if you've got picks that 417 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 3: you want to give us as part of ty versus 418 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 3: the world. What we're going to do here in just 419 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 3: a little bit. We've got a lot to cover yet. 420 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 3: On our Week six show, I want to throw out 421 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 3: Clemson to you. Okay, where do we stand on Clemson. 422 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 3: I'm impressed. 423 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 2: I'm impressed with Clemson because I'm willing to throw out 424 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: recent history with Clemson. I'm willing to throw things out. 425 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: They're winning games, they're beat up on defense, their corners 426 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: gave up a ton against Wake Forest. I'm not going 427 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 2: to say I'm impressed necessarily with the results. I think 428 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 2: I'm impressed with finding different ways to win, to beat 429 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 2: NC State like they did back and forth early on. 430 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 2: The defense, tightened up the offensive game plan I think 431 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 2: was pretty sound. I don't think Clemson is on the 432 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 2: level of Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State. I think they're a 433 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 2: tier a tier and a half below. But I think 434 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 2: all things considered, it could have been a worse start. 435 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: They could have lost to Wake, they could have lost 436 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 2: to NC State, they could have played and I know 437 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 2: they were pretty close to Georgia Tech early on, which 438 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 2: is not necessarily the best result, but that was Week 439 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 2: one whatever. 440 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,239 Speaker 1: I'm willing to throw out a lot of that. 441 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 2: I'm not impressed with the five star rating that was 442 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: attached to DJU coming out of high school, but again, 443 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: it's not really his fault necessarily. I think they're winning 444 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: in spite of the coordinators leaving and all that kind 445 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 2: of stuff. I'm going to say they impressed me, but 446 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 2: not necessarily within the context of Clemson fan expectations. 447 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm not impressed with wide receiving core no, 448 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 3: but I'm pretty much impressed with everything else. And I 449 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 3: think you're right to point out DJU five star. But 450 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 3: DJU has been a lot better this year. 451 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: He has been. 452 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 3: Dju is not turning the ball over the way he 453 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 3: did a year ago. He's got an eleven to one 454 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 3: touchdown to interception ratio, sixty five percent of his passes 455 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 3: are completed. Will Shipley when they use him as doing 456 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 3: an effective job, I think they're doing a good enough job. 457 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 3: I like what they're doing with DJU. By the way, 458 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 3: in the running game, I like that we're seeing a 459 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 3: little bit more designed runs for him. He's not going 460 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 3: to blow anybody away with his speed, but he's a 461 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 3: big dude. He's big dude to bully over. He can 462 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 3: get those hard yards and I think that's really important. 463 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 3: So I think they're kind of growing into this thing 464 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 3: as they go with new coordinators and some new faces 465 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 3: across the board there. For Clemson, defensively, they're stout. They're 466 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 3: not as good as I think we thought they might be. 467 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 3: Like we gave the stat out about a week ago, 468 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 3: how they're not necessarily generating the pressure right, and they're 469 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 3: also giving up a lot in the intermediate passing game, 470 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 3: like you're just very good at doing whatever it is 471 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 3: that they do, but they're not necessarily a havoc team. Yeah, 472 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 3: So I think that makes them impressive across the board. 473 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 3: I think they are getting better, and that's what impresses 474 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 3: me the most about the Tigers, the fact that there 475 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 3: is still room to grow here. 476 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: And if you look at. 477 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,959 Speaker 3: The schedule, I mean, look, there's not a whole lot 478 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 3: of teams on here that really frighten me. I think 479 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 3: Clemson's probably better than most of these teams. I also 480 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 3: don't think Clemson is impregnable. I think one of these teams, 481 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: whether it's at Notre Dame or you know, a weird 482 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 3: game at Florida State in a couple of weeks, like 483 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 3: I could see that being an interesting scenario for Clemson 484 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 3: where you know, maybe things don't go their way and 485 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: suddenly they're trailing late in the game. 486 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: But I think generally I'm pretty impressed by this team. 487 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 2: Could I jump in real quick, awesome use of impregnable, 488 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 2: like you absolutely nailed it. 489 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: Thank you. 490 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 2: I had to look it up to make sure that 491 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 2: you didn't talk about somebody not being able to get 492 00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 2: pregnant or. 493 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 3: WYDI we're talking about buffs that would be impregnate. 494 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 2: That's I understand what you're saying. But I'm just saying, credit, 495 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: where credits? Do you absolutely nail that? 496 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you, thank you. 497 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 3: M
