We made some tweaks. 52 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: It's back this week. I'll let you know. 53 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: In the meantime, let's dive into the show tonight. A 54 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 2: number of players that I am labeling on Step Up 55 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: Saturday as having a big opportunity to do just that, 56 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: to step up. 57 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: These could be big time impact players. 58 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 2: Some of these names are underdogs this Saturday, but yet 59 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: are in prime position to be the reason why an 60 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: upset or two or three may be sprung. And the 61 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 2: first one I would argue, if you're going to see 62 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: a big upset Saturday, the most important player in the 63 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: country is Xavier Worthy. I'm not even looking at Quinn, 64 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: you or as and he's the quarterback of Texas. I'm 65 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: looking at who he's thrown it to, xavierer Worthy. The 66 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 2: other night on the show, on Tuesday, I said I 67 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: didn't necessary pick Texas fully upset, but if they do, 68 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 2: said Xavier Worthy, You'll be the reason why, because he's 69 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: the closest thing since Sark had been at Alabama that 70 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: looks like Devonte Smith, and so he's the guy. If 71 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: you want to give someone fifteen or sixteen touches in 72 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 2: a game, he's the guy to do it. It doesn't 73 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: always mean five step, seven step drop, long developing deep routes. 74 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: That's not what I mean when I say give him 75 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: fifteen or sixteen touches. I mean a couple of those. 76 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: I mean quick slants. I mean that orbit motion stuff 77 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 2: Sark does all the time. You can hand it off 78 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 2: to him for all I care. I think a lot 79 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: of the early offensive approach for Texas will also be 80 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 2: just quick shots out. 81 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: Why get it on the perimeter. 82 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: See how Alabama's corners match up against your bigger receivers blocking. 83 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: That is how you have to find offense, Souse. 84 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: What you can't do is allow quinn Ewers to just 85 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: be assaulted by Dallas Turner and Will Anderson all afternoon. 86 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: So I think that if Texas is in this thing 87 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter, several things have to have gone right, 88 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 2: But the most important player in that whole equation will 89 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 2: be Exavier Worthy. Big opportunity for him. Think about him 90 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: going off against Oklahoma last week. Need that kind of 91 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: game again, Probably need an even more spectacular performance, or 92 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 2: at least a performance with more touches even than he 93 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: had in that game. Next up, I want to talk 94 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: about Will Levis for a second. The Florida Gators are 95 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: hosting Kentucky this Saturday night. What a great draw, as 96 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: it turns out for Florida, What a great draw. It's 97 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 2: tough that you face these two veteran coaching stabs in 98 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: Utah and Kentucky back to back. 99 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: But the benefit of the. 100 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 2: Schedule has been both of these have been night games. 101 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: See Arkansas playing South Carolina. It's an eleven am local 102 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: time kickoff. Florida has not had to deal with that, 103 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: so at least they got these two games at night. 104 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 2: And I don't know that you watched. I think most 105 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 2: of you did watch that Utah Florida game. Did you 106 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 2: see that home environment? I heard our buddy z Ax 107 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 2: Smith talking about this earlier. 108 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: Today. 109 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 2: Everyone wants to talk about is Texas back. Everyone wants 110 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 2: to talk about his FSU back is the swamp back. 111 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 2: I think the swamp is back. I think he's right. 112 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: I think the swamp is back. Some would argue it 113 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 2: never left. They would be wrong, But I don't ever 114 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 2: think it became a non intimidating environment. But anyone down 115 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: there who has gone to games for several years and 116 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 2: was at that Utah game last week, outside of that 117 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: Auburn game a couple of years ago, which I was at, 118 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 2: I was on the field for that Auburn game outside 119 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 2: of that swamp hadn't felt like that, and it certainly 120 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: hasn't come across like that on national TV. I'm saying 121 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: all this because that is the those are the teeth, 122 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 2: Rather that Will Levis is leading Kentucky into Saturday. I 123 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: don't feel particularly great about Kentucky's ability to run the 124 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: ball against anyone right now. Florida not the least, and therefore, 125 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: if they're going to pull an upset, it's going to 126 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 2: have to be disproportionately on Will Levis's shoulders. Now, I 127 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: didn't get caught up in all the draft hype stuff 128 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 2: in the summer. It's not to say that it wasn't valid. 129 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: We just didn't really talk about it. We're not an 130 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 2: NFL draft projection show, so we didn't get caught up 131 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 2: in that. Will Levis has a ton of talent, a 132 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 2: ton of potential. The reason that it is a step 133 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: up Saturday for him is because if you were to 134 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 2: fast forward three years down the road and Will Levis 135 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 2: is starting for the Minnesota Vikings or someone like that, 136 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 2: it very well could be that you trace the lineage 137 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 2: and his progression as a quarterback back to days like 138 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: this coming Saturday. What if he goes in there and 139 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 2: the run game does stall, but Will Levis keeps on 140 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: making third down throw after third down throw, makes some 141 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: plays with his legs, you know, takes a free blitzer 142 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 2: off the edge and takes a shot but glances because 143 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: he spins just in time, and he keeps plays alive 144 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,919 Speaker 2: with his legs and he walks out of there, grass 145 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 2: stains head to toe. But Kentucky wins thirty eight to 146 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: thirty four, and you're looking, you're saying, wow, all that 147 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,679 Speaker 2: offseason oos nasty word there, all that summer talk about 148 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 2: Will Levis. 149 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: Maybe it was accurate. 150 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 2: It's the kind of game he'll probably have to have 151 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: for them to win. It is a death a step 152 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: up Saturday for Will Levis. Now we go to the 153 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: state of Iowa. That's where we were headed this time 154 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: last year. Remember the Renaissance Tour. Last year headed to Ames, 155 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 2: Iowa for Iowa versus Iowa State, and I want to 156 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: say the Cyclones were favored by five six points somewhere 157 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 2: around there. 158 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: Anyway, they lost. They went down. 159 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: Hard turnover after turnover to Iowa, and it made it 160 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 2: a fairly boring game to watch. Meanwhile, there were much 161 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: more exciting games going on elsewhere. 162 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: Well that was last year. 163 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: This year, you don't have to worry about being favored 164 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: because you're on the road and you are a three 165 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: or a three and a half point dog against in 166 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 2: state rival Iowa, depending on. 167 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: Where you look. 168 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: And that, friends is why it is a step up 169 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 2: Saturday for Matt Campbell. I could have picked a player, 170 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 2: but I really think Matt Campbell last year, at the 171 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: end of that game looked himself in the mirror and said, 172 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 2: I didn't have this team ready to play. And the 173 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: reason I know that is because he stepped to the 174 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: podium after the game and multiple times said I didn't 175 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 2: really had this team ready to play. Well, what lessons 176 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 2: did we learn. Was that just coach speak? Did you 177 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: really believe that or not? Because if you believe it, 178 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: then hey, this is a redemption opportunity for you. And 179 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 2: and this is just me talking now. I kind of 180 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: talked about this the other night. I've done several radio 181 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 2: hits this week and I've said this. I don't know 182 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 2: if this is the case yet, but I think eventually, 183 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 2: sometime this year, Iowa State will be improved at quarterback 184 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: from Brock Purdy to who they have starting now, who 185 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: is Hunter Deckers. 186 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: Now. Again, it's early, so I don't know if that's 187 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: the case yet. 188 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 2: I think they are a quality team, still, quality program 189 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 2: all that. 190 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: We say that all the time about Iowa State. But 191 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: here's the thing. 192 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 2: Everybody watched Iowa struggle offensively last week. College football teaches 193 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: us all the time, rarely do you get the same 194 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: thing week one to week two. Rarely you could get better, 195 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 2: it could get worse. It's just it's rarely the exact same. 196 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: Yet everyone predicates their prediction ooh, redundant. Everyone predicates their thoughts. 197 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 2: There we go on what's going to happen in week two? 198 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 2: By what I saw in week one, I was not 199 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: going to light the scoreboard up. 200 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: But they're going to have some. 201 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 2: Type of adjustments. They're going to be able to move 202 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 2: the ball somewhat, aren't they? 203 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: Are they? Maybe? I think so? 204 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 2: And so what I'm saying is you can't go in there, 205 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 2: score ten and then just run the clock out. There's 206 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 2: got to be a more sound offensive approach than there 207 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 2: was last year. And if they were to win this game, 208 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 2: they snap a six year losing streak against Iowa. It 209 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: also probably announces that, yeah, they are a serious contender 210 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 2: in the Big twelve, even though they were probably written 211 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: off a lot more in the preseason than you're used 212 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 2: to the last couple of years. 213 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: Hey, I'll give you one here this way off. 214 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 2: Your radar in a game with a fifty one and 215 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 2: a half point spread, no less. How about JJ McCarthy 216 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: at Michigan. How is this a step up? 217 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: Saturday? 218 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 2: They're playing Hawaii. People started praying for Hawaii around Tuesday. 219 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 2: This week, it's going to be bad. But here's what's 220 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 2: happening at Michigan. I know most of you are aware 221 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: of this by now, but Jim Harball Stardy K McNamara 222 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: at quarterback in Week one, check and now this is 223 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 2: the week where JJ McCarthy's going to start, and there's 224 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: a question mark, so we got to check from last 225 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 2: week Cad McNamara was what we expect Cad McNamara to 226 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 2: be this week. It is my belief JJ McCarthy will 227 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: play at a level that coordinates him as QB one 228 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 2: at Michigan, and I think after this Hawaii game, sometime 229 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 2: shortly thereafter, Jim Harball will announce that he is their 230 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: starting quarterback. 231 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: And that's my belief. 232 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 2: The reason I think that is because I think on 233 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 2: a step up Saturday for JJ McCarthy, he's going to 234 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 2: do just that. Cad McNamara is a very solid quarterback. 235 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: Michigan is a very solid team with Cad McNamara. But 236 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: I tweeted out earlier this week and I'll tell you now, 237 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 2: when you see us put Michigan at number four in 238 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 2: the JP pole, just a little internal nugget here. 239 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: When you see Michigan number four in the. 240 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 2: JP pole, it's cause we've got that second name there, 241 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy as QB one, so he's plugged into the 242 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: model as Q one. We think they've got a higher 243 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: ceiling with him there. We think that they can take 244 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 2: advantage a lot more of still one of the most 245 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: underrated wide receiver rooms in the country, and they can 246 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 2: do it better, especially down the road, they can do 247 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: it better. It won't matter against Hawaii, won't matter against Yukon, Maryland. 248 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: Gross gross gross to start. 249 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 2: The season, it won't matter there, But boy will it 250 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 2: matter eventually down the road. You got Penn State, you 251 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: got Michigan State. You go to Ohio State. Of course 252 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 2: at the end of the year. I got Michigan going 253 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: to the playoff this year, and I've got him going 254 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 2: there with JJ McCarthy. But it's not up to me, 255 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 2: It's not up to the model, it's up to him. 256 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 2: He's got a step up Saturday. Lastly, I've got a 257 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 2: whole team. 258 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: For you here. How about Pitt. 259 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: We picked Tennessee to go to Pitt and win as 260 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 2: a six to a six and a half point favorite 261 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 2: this weekend. 262 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: I'm not backing off that pick. But the thing about 263 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: it is. 264 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: I picked Pitt to lose last week too, and somehow, 265 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 2: someway they found a way to prove me wrong. And 266 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: it's another step up Saturday for him, because what's the 267 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: prize for. 268 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: Winning in Week one? 269 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: You get to be a home underdog in Week two 270 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: against an SEC Eastern Division opponent, and yet Pitt played 271 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 2: this game last year. They won in Kneeland last year. 272 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 2: And I've listened to paton Ardoozy this week. Do the 273 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 2: traditional dabos Swinney, no one believes in us, should we 274 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: show up blah blah blah. He's playing it exactly how 275 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 2: I would if I were the head coach at Pitt, 276 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: and it's an opportunity for them to step up. Not 277 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 2: only would this be a really really big win for 278 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 2: them just because it's a win. Secondly, it's because it's 279 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: against Tennessee. Thirdly, that'd be two weeks in a row 280 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 2: with a brand new quarterback and a new offensive coordinator 281 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 2: that you've gotten off to a really good start. 282 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, there would be every excuse in the world. 283 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 2: If you were one and one, you would be understandable 284 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 2: at Z to two. But if they're two and oh, 285 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 2: and then you're looking at the rest of the ACC. 286 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: This is not a conference game Saturday. 287 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 2: But if you're looking at the rest of the ACC, 288 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: if Clemson continues to look like they did offensively the 289 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 2: other night, they're still really good. 290 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: But you're not scared of them. 291 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 2: They don't look like the dragon that no one's going 292 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: to be able to slay. 293 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: And therefore, if. 294 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 2: You start to to oh and then you've got some 295 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 2: breathing room, you go to They go to Western Michigan. 296 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 2: What are you guys doing? Anyway, They go to Western 297 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 2: Michigan and they got Rhode Island the next week. Look 298 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: at the conference schedule. Notice there is no Clemson in 299 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: the regular season. By the way, could get real interesting, 300 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: really quick for PIP. So those are just some of 301 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: the names or the entities that I think have a 302 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 2: distinct opportunity to step up and to kind of change 303 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: the old narrative around the program and the team this weekend. 304 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 2: The narrative around here changed last week when we announced 305 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 2: the Academy Sports and Outdoors had become our presenting sponsor. 306 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 2: So we're now Late Kick presented by Academy Sports and Outdoors.

So I know I say 341 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 2: it every now and then because it quite literally is 342 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 2: the lifeblood of the channel, both on podcasts and on YouTube. 343 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: So please keep subscribing. 344 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 2: And if you've been stealing your sister's phone and subscribing 345 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 2: under her name, that's fine. She'll be no worse off 346 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: for it. In fact, maybe she'll learn something. But boy, 347 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 2: it helps us. So we appreciate that. I've noticed that 348 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: we had over one thousand subs to the channel yesterday. 349 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 2: It's just a random Wednesday. I think we had eight 350 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: hundred on Monday. So you know, it wasn't too long ago. 351 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: We were out in California at a Lee eleven and 352 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 2: we hit one hundred thousand, and now we're at like 353 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 2: one hundred and sixteen thousand. It feels like a few 354 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: weeks ago, so I appreciate that. Okay, we got a 355 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: couple more game breakdowns to do. This one was in 356 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 2: high demand. I'm shocked. I am shocked. And quite frankly, 357 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: I blame Jesse that we didn't break this game down 358 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: the other night, even though he said to do. South 359 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 2: Carolina at Arkansas is a high noon eastern eleven am 360 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 2: kickoff in Fayetteville this Saturday, and there are, in my opinion, 361 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: some understandable concerns if you're an Arkansas fan, But there 362 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 2: are also some understandable concerns if you're a South Carolina fan. 363 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: To me, if I'm an Arkansas fan, no one's ever 364 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 2: accused me of being such a thing. But if I'm 365 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: an Arkansas fan, I'm not crazy about the start time. 366 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: I know that they've had a little bigger issue moving 367 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: tickets for this one than last week, and it's understandable. 368 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 2: So what I'm worried about is we got a couple 369 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 2: of corners banged up, probably out. You've always got the 370 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 2: let down effect if you win a big game. I'm 371 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: not so concerned about that, but I'll admit, yeah, it's 372 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 2: happened before. Maybe it's a threat here, but how many 373 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 2: times have you watched these games where you've got that 374 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 2: eleven am kickoff, You're coming off a win, and most 375 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 2: of your big games seemingly are still down the road, 376 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 2: and meanwhile, here's South Carolina, a conference opponent. 377 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: The line is under ten. 378 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 2: It's Arkansas minus eight, and yet it just feels like 379 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 2: it's there. The game's just there, And the last thing 380 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 2: in the world you want is South Carolina pulling some 381 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 2: special teams trickeration like they. 382 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: Did last week. I don't know if a punt block's 383 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: a trick, it's just a good play. 384 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 2: Or you turned the ball over early and for some 385 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 2: reason it just did this guy just yawn over here, Yes, 386 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 2: he just yawned. It's that kind of game that would 387 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: be a concern that I think is valid, which leads 388 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 2: to what I think their offensive approach will be. 389 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 1: And I'll talk about that in a second. 390 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 2: As for South Carolina, pretty clear everybody, and I mean 391 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: everybody in that state is talking about offensive line right now, 392 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 2: and with good reason. Little suspect last week and they're 393 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: talking about Spencer Rattler, and with good reason. There was 394 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 2: no flow. They weren't able to stretch the field last week. 395 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 2: They didn't run the ball all that well. That was 396 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 2: against Georgia State. Now, the score looked the way it 397 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 2: did because they played very well on special teams. Thirty 398 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 2: five to fourteen, I think was the final they ended 399 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 2: up covering against Georgia State. However, this is a different 400 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 2: animal this week. Literally, I mean it's the difference between 401 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 2: a panther and a razorback. I want to go in 402 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 2: a little probably thirty second rant here. I have read 403 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 2: a lot of folks talking about South Carolina's win over 404 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 2: Georgia State last week, and they've been quick to discount it, 405 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 2: and I've asked why, and they said, well, I mean 406 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 2: they got a bunch of special team scores. Yeah they did. 407 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: Are they not going to play special teams this week? 408 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 2: Did they remove that third of the game. Here's how 409 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 2: you can spot the casuals amongst us people who discount 410 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: special teams but continue to say, you got to play 411 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 2: good in all three phases? What are the three phases? Offense, defense, 412 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 2: special teams? Do you believe that? Do you believe the 413 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 2: game is split in thirds? 414 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 1: Do you really? Friend? 415 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 2: Because you don't ever discount pick sixes, you don't ever 416 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: discount forty eight yard touchdown runs. But for some reason, 417 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 2: if I block a punt and I score seven, you 418 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: look at that and say, good for you. Here's a 419 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 2: pat on the head. You got seven points. Never happen. Again, 420 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 2: those aren't even real points. I don't even value that 421 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 2: as a true seven special teams. If you can play 422 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 2: them at a high level, it tends to translate, and 423 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 2: it's always a pressure point that you put on your 424 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 2: opponent that maybe they don't feel every single week. 425 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: So if you can, if you. 426 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 2: Can harass kickers, if you can harass punters, if you 427 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 2: can return it yourself, if you can have fifteen extra 428 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 2: yards of average starting field position relative to the rest 429 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: of their opponents, all that stuff adds up. So stop 430 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 2: clowning special teams. That was like a minute or two. 431 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 2: How much should I expect from South Carolina's pass game 432 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: this week because I didn't get a whole lot last week, 433 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 2: so certainly that has to be better. And this is 434 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 2: an eight point spread, so I mean, we're kind of 435 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 2: teetering on the if the upset were to happen, how 436 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 2: would it happen realm? 437 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: But we're not quite there yet. 438 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 2: I think Cincinnati last week had five or six plays 439 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: of twenty yards or more, so there were explosive plays 440 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 2: to be had. The added takeaway if you watched the 441 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 2: game were how many of those plays almost were big 442 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: completions and were overthrows. 443 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: So Arkansas has got a dB that's. 444 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: Beat and and Cincinnati doesn't execute the play. That's too 445 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 2: bad for Cincinnati. South Carolina and a future opponent could 446 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: look at that and say, Wow, So if we have 447 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: any time to throw, we've got a guy here in 448 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 2: Spencer Ratler who could complete those balls. We got receivers 449 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: maybe who we can trust to get open. Might we 450 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 2: have a little more success through the air. 451 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: Well. 452 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 2: I speak very write this down, Colin trependitiously, because I 453 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 2: don't know. That's why I'm literally asking you. I think 454 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 2: the plays will be there. I think the opportunities will 455 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 2: be there. How high a level they can execute that, man, 456 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 2: that's anyone's guess. I would encourage you South Carolina fans 457 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 2: if you know that answer, let me know because I 458 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 2: went back today, yes, being the soldier for you that 459 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: I am, and I rewatched the Georgia State game. 460 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: Bradley saw me. 461 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: He sat in there and I groaned audibly several times. 462 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: So that week one, Week two improvement philosophy. Let's hope 463 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 2: we see it here with South Carolina. Number two guys 464 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: with the ability to stretch the field on that team 465 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: versus guys who did stretch the field last week. 466 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: Two different things. 467 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 2: And that's where that whole offensive line and Spencer Rattler 468 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 2: consistency and execution comes back in. It is not that 469 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 2: they're without those kind of potentially explosive playmakers in the 470 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 2: receiver department. It's just that when you look at the 471 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 2: box score from last week, they don't really pop off. 472 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean they can't, just means they didn't last week. 473 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 2: So yes, there is an opportunity for something to happen 474 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 2: this week that didn't happen last week. And this is 475 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 2: a somewhat vulnerable offensive or defensive secondary that you're going 476 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 2: up against in Arkansas. 477 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 1: So that's point one point. 478 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 2: Two because of the aforementioned early kickoff, because of the 479 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 2: aforementioned potential sleepy letdown spot, and because of potential vulnerabilities 480 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 2: in your secondary. If you're Arkansas, I think they're going 481 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 2: to go for the throat early, and quite frankly, I 482 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 2: think their offensive game plan was to do that last week, 483 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 2: and because of the way that first drive went for 484 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 2: them and then Cincinnati, I think they backed off a 485 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 2: little bit and they leaned more towards the run, and 486 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 2: as a result, it was kind of a plotting first half. 487 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 2: I don't think they want to duplicate that. They want 488 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 2: to duplicate the win. The way they go about it 489 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: in terms of offensive play calling and balance I think 490 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 2: will be a little bit different this week. And I 491 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 2: think that early jolt for the reasons I just mentioned, 492 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 2: probably a little more necessary. 493 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: Here. 494 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 2: Man coverage is what they are going to see. It's 495 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: the same thing South Carolina did out wide early on 496 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 2: against Georgia State. I see no reason why they should 497 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 2: change that philosophy. If I'm South Carolina and I'm looking 498 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 2: at Arkansas and I know how they go about things. 499 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 2: One of the best rushing attacks in the country last 500 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 2: year ran for over two twenty last week. I think 501 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 2: that's the way they're going to attack me, and I 502 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 2: will make kJ Jefferson beat me through the air. 503 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: Now here's the follow up. 504 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 2: I think he can notice I've said with both teams, 505 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 2: I think there may be a little more action through 506 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 2: the air, a little more success through the air in 507 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: this game than there was last week. Both of them 508 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 2: know they need to score, and maybe a little bit 509 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 2: more than the total indicates they need to score. 510 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: So let's take a look. 511 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 2: Given all that what the model thinks next to what 512 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: Las Vegas thinks. 513 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: Now. 514 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 2: Before I looked at the model, to be honest, I 515 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 2: thought we were going to be leaning South Carolina plus 516 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 2: these points. Then the model says, not so fast. Vegas 517 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 2: has Arkansas minus eight. Right now the model has Arkansas 518 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 2: minus ten and a half. For those confused at what 519 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 2: I mean by the model, I mean we run our 520 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 2: own numbers, so we have our own model. I think 521 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: Kendall Brow's has a couple of too many tools at 522 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 2: his disposal. Trey Knox is a name I did not 523 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 2: even mention here one of the do I say burgeoning 524 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 2: very often, one of the burgeoning tight end names in 525 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: the country right now. Trey Knox is going to be 526 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 2: a difference maker for them down the line, and kind 527 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 2: of was last week. I think Arkansas is going to win, 528 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 2: and contrary to what my gut feel was, we actually 529 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 2: have Arkansas covering. 530 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a higher scoring game. 531 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 2: One of our official Rama Noodle Express plays for this 532 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: week is over fifty two and a half. I think 533 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 2: that number has already moved up to fifty three and 534 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 2: a half. I think it's going to get into the 535 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: upper fifties to the sixties, so I like that number. Okay, 536 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 2: let's head out West. Appreciate you guys watching. Make sure 537 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 2: you like the video. Less than half of you have 538 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 2: so far. Am I disappointed a little bit? Yeah, not mad, 539 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 2: just disappointed. Okay, let's continue. 540 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: Baylor at Brigham Young. 541 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 2: If Brigham Young wins this game, my vow to you, 542 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: I will use the acronym abbreviated version to describe the school. 543 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: It has been well founded. 544 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 2: I have trouble pronouncing the why, and therefore I call 545 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 2: him Brigham Young. But if you win the game, you 546 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 2: have earned the right to make me look foolish. This 547 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 2: is big for Baylor. I think it's massive for Brigham Young, though. 548 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 2: This is an opportunity for a team that is headed 549 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 2: to the Big twelve to compare themselves more favorably against 550 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 2: Big twelve opposition than they did last year. Last year 551 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 2: they lost this game thirty eight to twenty four. I 552 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 2: normally don't use the rearview mirror. I don't care how 553 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 2: often you've played. I care what this year's game is 554 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 2: going to be. But because of the way last year's 555 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 2: game played out, and you're looking at kind of the 556 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 2: box score here. If you're listening on a podcast, I'll 557 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 2: tell you what I'm focused on more in a second. 558 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: But because of all that, this is a really big game, 559 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 2: and it's one of the first of a number of 560 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 2: spotlight games National spotlight games for Brigham Young this year 561 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 2: that they have to showcase their program and to measure 562 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 2: themselves against big time competition. They've got Oregon in a 563 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 2: couple of weeks. They got Arkansas coming there later in 564 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 2: the year. So Baylor and Arkansas coming in there. Yeah, 565 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 2: look at that schedule. They go to Stanford. Hey, did 566 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: we give Utah Tech the late kick logo? Do we 567 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 2: not have a Utah Tech logo? 568 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: The first thing I. 569 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: Told Jesse when he started here is don't embarrass me. 570 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 2: The second thing I told him is get me a 571 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 2: Utah Tech logo. 572 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: And he's one for one. 573 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 2: At best at best paper pop. Okay, let's talk about 574 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 2: this game. As I said, I do not go back 575 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: to last year a lot, except I'm about to go 576 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 2: back to last year because there's one key fact that 577 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 2: went heavily. For looking at an electoral map, this part would 578 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 2: have gone heavily in Baylor's direction. The old rushing offense 579 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 2: statistics rear their ugly head in our review of last 580 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 2: year's game film. Now, if you're following this game closely, 581 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 2: I think you've heard this recited ad nauseum this week. 582 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 2: Three one hundred and three yards on the ground for 583 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 2: Baylor in this game last year on forty seven carries. 584 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 2: Statson Info tells me that is six point four yards 585 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 2: per carry. That, friends, is a padlock stat. And if 586 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 2: you were to promise me that they're going to put 587 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 2: up similar numbers, I would say that's a soft padlock stat. 588 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: I would say we pretty well know who's going to 589 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: win this game. It was thirty one to fourteen at 590 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 2: the end of three. Thirty eight to twenty four was 591 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 2: the final score. Both teams really good on the line 592 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 2: of scrimmage. They were good last year, they're good this year. 593 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 2: I think Baylor has improved at quarterback with Blake Shapin, 594 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 2: which leads me to my next point. Jaren Hall, quarterback 595 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 2: for Brigham Young rightfully will get a majority of the 596 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 2: spotlight in this game. 597 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: I think if we were. 598 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 2: To go back and do our step up Saturday segment 599 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: and I added another name, Blake Shapin could be another name. 600 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: Because while quarterbacks are never on the field. At the 601 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 2: same time, if you have future NFL aspirations, you already 602 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: know a bunch of those scouting eyes are going to 603 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 2: be on this game, and probably in person at this 604 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 2: game because they know Jaron Hall will face one of, 605 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 2: if not the toughest defensive tests all year in facing Baylor, Well, 606 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 2: you may get the added benefit of seeing a guy 607 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 2: in Blake Shapin here that you're not talking a whole 608 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: lot about yet, but you may be talking about down 609 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 2: the road. 610 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: So it's big for him. 611 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 2: But it's also big in that we're sitting here focusing 612 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 2: on Baylor being able to run the ball like they 613 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 2: did last year. Imagine the opportunities due to the focus 614 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 2: Brigham Young's got to pay to that run game that 615 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 2: Blake Shapan is going to have. 616 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: Who's going to throw the ball to? I don't know. 617 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 2: This is the kind of game you established wide receiver 618 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 2: talent in. So it's a big game for both quarterbacks. 619 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: And I don't necessarily think that a lot of the 620 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 2: shine is going to be on Baylor's guy, but I 621 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 2: think at the end of the night it could be. 622 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 2: Let's take a look at what the line is and 623 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 2: let's take a look at what the model thinks. This 624 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,239 Speaker 2: is the one that I think we're differing on a 625 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 2: little bit more. And I'm differing even more than the 626 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 2: model differs. So Brigham Young right now is a three 627 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 2: point favorite. There are some three and a half's out 628 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,959 Speaker 2: there that's consensus three, and Caesar's has it at three. 629 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 2: The model here only has Brigham Young minus one, and 630 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 2: that is without factoring in the uncertainty at the wide 631 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 2: receiver position. Like Huka Nakua. I don't know if he's 632 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 2: gonna play. They don't know if he's gonna play. Gunner 633 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: Romney don't know if he's gonna play. I tendeleen Baylor 634 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 2: winning this game out right now. There is a rumor 635 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 2: going around Provo, which is not true, that I don't 636 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 2: like Brigham Young. I dress exactly like you guys do. 637 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: I don't know where in the world that comes from. 638 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 2: Got nothing but love for you, guys, which is why 639 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: I'm promising you if you end up winning this game, 640 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 2: you will hear me fail miserably in trying to pronounce 641 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 2: the letters in acronym style that make up Brigham Young University. 642 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: It's gonna be bad, but that's better than any trophy 643 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 2: you could ever play for. I think, so we're gonna 644 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 2: take Baylor to win. Outright, We're gonna take Baylor plus 645 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 2: the points. We're not done talking about that game for 646 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: I think, what are obvious reasons? But if they're not 647 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 2: obvious enough, they will be in a second. That is 648 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 2: a ten to fifteen Eastern timekick on ESPN. Normally you 649 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 2: used to some leftover Mountain West nonsense. 650 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: We don't call it nonsense, but some of you may. 651 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: Nope, you get a premier game as late as ten 652 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 2: to fifteen on the East Coast. Okay, upsets, upsets, upsets, Colin, 653 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a good endpoint here in just 654 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: a second. I've got something to say about this first game. 655 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: You know, we've talked about Bama Texas a lot this week, 656 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: but written on this post it on my index finger. 657 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: Here is a little. 658 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 2: Note that was brought to my attention today. Okay, Colin, 659 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 2: here's your endpoint. 660 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: Where are the upsets this week? 661 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 2: We did not have monster upsets last week week, and 662 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 2: for my money, it feels a little too. 663 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: Quiet around here. There are point. 664 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 2: Spreads like Bama Texas, for example, that are so big 665 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 2: you're not entertaining the thought. App state is at A 666 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,479 Speaker 2: and M. You're not even entertaining the thought. And I 667 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 2: would just suggest entertain the thought because this is college football. 668 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: So what are the odds. 669 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a little one to ten scale here, 670 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 2: What are the odds some of these upsets happen? 671 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: Why not? 672 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 2: Since we've already picked the game. This Bama Texas game 673 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: pretty straightforward. If you can consistently maintain poise with Quinn viewers, 674 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: if you can consistently get Xavier Worthy involved early, if 675 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 2: you can consistently turn fifty to fifty balls into seventy 676 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 2: thirty balls, and you can expose and I say this relatively, 677 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 2: if you can expose Alabama's corner play as not being 678 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 2: great but instead just being pretty good. This is all theoretical. 679 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 2: If you can do all that, you may still lose. 680 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 2: I hate to say it, you may still lose. I 681 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 2: think what Alabama's going to bring in their Saturday maybe 682 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 2: a little bit too much for anyone in the country 683 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 2: to handle. I think it will be too much for Texas. 684 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 2: So I put this at like a one and a 685 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 2: half or a two. Now I know that line is twenty. 686 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: At twenty light like that's nothing to scoff at. I 687 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 2: think it's a two. We're going to be at this game. 688 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 2: So if it goes down unlike last year when we 689 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 2: jetted home and we missed Bama falling in the state 690 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: of Texas to Texas A and M, we're. 691 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: Going to be there. Now. 692 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 2: Written on this post, it is the unfortunate testimony of 693 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: the last time that I flew into Austin Berstrom International Airport, 694 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 2: where I will fly into tomorrow at an undisclosed time. 695 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: Last time I flew into that place, I still have 696 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: nightmares three or four times a week about this. 697 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: I sauntered over to the rental car lot. 698 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 2: I waited four hours in line, famously, at which point 699 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 2: they only had a sixteen seater van available, and so 700 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 2: I hopped in that thing. And I just drove a 701 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 2: sixteen seater van around the state of Texas. Let's cross fingers, 702 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 2: even those of you who claim to be my worst enemy, 703 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 2: Let's just don't wish that on me again. Let's have 704 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 2: a nice Sorrento or a Rio or a Civic. 705 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: Ready for me tomorrow. Please and thank you. 706 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 2: Next up app state at Texas A and M. 707 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: Have you looked at this game this week. 708 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: It started at seventeen, it's now Texas A and M 709 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 2: minus nineteen. This to me is fool's gold, total fools gold. 710 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: Folks are criticizing A and M. 711 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 2: What they pitched a shoutout last week, and they're criticizing 712 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 2: them because they only hung I think thirty one on 713 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 2: Sam Houston State. 714 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: Look, here's the thing. One of my favorite. 715 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 2: Metaphors is the crowbar in the bicycle spokes, and that 716 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 2: is usually what happens when a timing and rhythm based 717 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 2: offense like APP faces a defense with so far superior 718 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,959 Speaker 2: Front seven depth and talent that you can't even get moving. 719 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 2: And what happens is instead of watching them score in 720 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 2: the sixties last week and saying to yourself, even if 721 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 2: we shave fifty percent of their production, they'll still be 722 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 2: in the thirties, that's not the way it works. It 723 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 2: actually just looks like you go from one hundred to zero, 724 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 2: you just grind to a halt. And so you very 725 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 2: well could turn on this game and the score in 726 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 2: the third quarter is A and M twenty eight an 727 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: APP seven or something like that, and you've you've seen 728 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 2: it a million times, but there's a million and one, 729 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 2: and you find yourself foolishly asking why didn't I see 730 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 2: this coming? Why did I think that they were going 731 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 2: to be anything against this defense like they were against 732 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 2: the gene Chiswick led North Carolina. 733 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: Ghost defense last week? And the answer is they're not 734 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: going to I think Texas A and M is gonna 735 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: win this. I think they're gonna win it comfortably. 736 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 2: I do not have anything more than a two on 737 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: the upset scale here. I don't think it's gonna happen. 738 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna waste a lot more time on it. 739 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 2: Next up Kansas at West Virginia. Everybody of mine, every 740 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 2: one of them that wants to sound like the sharpest 741 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 2: guy in the room, has told me this week watch 742 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 2: out for Kansas. Now, my retort is, are you picking 743 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 2: the upset or not? 744 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: Not a single one has picked the upset. 745 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 2: They're doing that classic text it so that if it 746 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 2: does happen, I can say I called it without actually 747 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 2: calling it. I had a buddy named Seth and high 748 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 2: school used to call a home run before every at 749 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 2: bat and would hit a few and then claim he 750 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: called it. 751 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: Well, that doesn't count. Friends. 752 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,760 Speaker 2: You can't just be telling me look out for Kansas. 753 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 2: You can't be saying, watch where I hit this ball, 754 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 2: and then if they pull the upset, if you go 755 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 2: deep all of a sudden, you called it. 756 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: Call it. 757 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 2: Well, I'm not calling it because I think West Virginia's 758 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 2: winning Saturday, and I think they're covering Saturday. They are 759 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 2: actually one of our ram Noudle Express best bets. And 760 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 2: why do I think that, Well, I think that it 761 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: is one of the biggest size of relief in America 762 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 2: for JT. Daniels, quarterback now at West Virginia, to go 763 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 2: from being in the environment he was in in Week one, 764 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 2: making a picture perfect pass with time winding down and 765 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 2: having a receiver just essentially take that thing and say 766 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 2: here and the game as well. 767 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: Here And I'm not here to bang on college kids. 768 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: That's why I'm not repeating a name. But JT. Daniels 769 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: played well enough to win in Week one. They didn't win. 770 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: All that did for me is pull this point spread 771 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 2: down a little bit further than it should be. 772 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: So we're taking West Virginia to win and cover. 773 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 2: I also cannot help but remember that that run defense 774 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 2: for West Virginia played to the standard we expected it to. 775 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 2: Remember that remember how I told you they've gotten bigger, 776 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 2: They've added depth. They've done it specifically with big twelve 777 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 2: play in mind. And they held Pitt under I think 778 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 2: two yards per carry. They held them to some very 779 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 2: very low number that is normally correlated with winning a 780 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:43,399 Speaker 2: football game. 781 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: I think it translates very well this week. 782 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 2: I think they've got Kansas's well. I think Kansas has 783 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 2: their full attention. This is a conference game and they've 784 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 2: got to get that taste out of their mouth immunity. 785 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 1: So I think that West Virginia wins this thing. It covers. 786 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: I've got it at a three, okay, because. 787 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 2: I got what'spec for Kansas, I do not enough to 788 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 2: pull the upset. So I've got a death of three 789 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 2: on the upset scale, three on a scale of one 790 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 2: to ten. Now Nashville is buzzing, and they're buzzing because 791 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 2: are commodores, the fighting Simmons for those on the streets 792 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 2: out here, and if you know, you know, and if you. 793 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: Don't, don't waste your time. 794 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 2: But the fighting Simmons also known as commodores. Outside the 795 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 2: six o five or sixty one five of Vanderbilt, they're. 796 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 1: Taking on wake Forest. This weekend. Good news, mister Hartman. 797 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 2: The quarterback there for wake Forest is back, and that 798 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 2: is good news because it was it was initially feared 799 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 2: that he was going to be gone a lot longer 800 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 2: than this, and with that announcement, this point spread went 801 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 2: from six and a half all the way up to 802 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 2: Wake minus thirteen. 803 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: I still think there's a shot for Vanderbilt. 804 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: The model thinks there's a shot for Vanderbilt. What I 805 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 2: think they need is they need critical success on third down, 806 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 2: probably like nine of thirteen, ten of fourteen, because you 807 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,879 Speaker 2: just can't let them start racking up plays. 808 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 1: It's the padlock stat here will. 809 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 2: Probably be the amount of plays that wake Forest runs, 810 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 2: which sounds kind of simple, but you know, sometimes this 811 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 2: stuff's not all that hard to figure out. It's not 812 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 2: rocket surgery, as someone would say. And therefore I'm looking 813 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 2: at the upset scale, and this thing's thirteen and has 814 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 2: it's accounted for the. 815 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:22,959 Speaker 1: Quarterback coming back. 816 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 2: I think they need to rattle him early, because there 817 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 2: could be rust as a factor. There could be, but 818 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 2: I think they need to rattle him early. And by 819 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 2: rattle him, I don't necessarily mean sacking him. I just 820 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 2: mean creating enough disruption, maybe forcing some errant throws. Just 821 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,720 Speaker 2: get someone's second guessing over there, get him second guessing, 822 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 2: make him see thirteen or fourteen defenders on the field. 823 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 2: If you can do that, and if you have critical 824 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 2: success on third down, I think there is a four 825 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 2: point five in ten shot. You know what, forget it. 826 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:57,720 Speaker 2: We're gonna round up five and ten shot. I like Vanderbilt. Okay, 827 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 2: they got a quarterback you need to pay attention to 828 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 2: as well. I like Vanderbilt, So I'm gonna give it 829 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 2: a five on a scale of one to ten. 830 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 1: I think it could happen. Why not.

So we're 844 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 2: gonna do it in just a second. Okay, Saturday, I 845 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 2: need you to make sure that you stopped by the channel, 846 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 2: not because there's going to be a show on, but 847 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 2: we have taken our model, the one that we use 848 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 2: to generate all these numbers, and we have created a 849 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: live version of it and on this channel throughout the 850 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 2: day on Saturday. A lot of you tuned in last Saturday. 851 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 2: We had really good numbers on it. This is basically 852 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 2: this screen will be nothing but a monitor, and it 853 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 2: will be a scoreboard. 854 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:08,839 Speaker 1: And what it will be. 855 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 2: Showing you are games that are happening live, and it 856 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 2: will be updating with a fresh projection of what our 857 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 2: final score is, what our model thinks the final score 858 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 2: will be after every play. Obviously this is tailor made 859 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 2: for you live betters. We also have multiple scenarios on 860 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 2: the screen. If this play is a three and out, 861 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,359 Speaker 2: if this play ends in a field goal, what is 862 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 2: the model's thinking on. 863 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: What the new score projection would be. All that is free. 864 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 2: We specifically designed it not to be signing you up 865 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 2: on a subscription. It's all free, so just come by 866 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 2: the channel on Saturday. Set a reminder, remember however you 867 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 2: prefer to do it. Appreciate that. Secondly, let's talk about 868 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 2: best bets. So we've already got I think for Colin. 869 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 2: Didn't we already have four the other night. There they are. 870 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 2: So we've got the over fifty two and a half 871 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: in South Carolina, Arkansas. I just told you we're taking 872 00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 2: West Virginia minus thirteen. Eastern Michigan's at Louisiana Lafia. We've 873 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: got the Eagles plus ten and a half. They are 874 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 2: not from Yipslanty, just Ipslanty. There's a why, but it's 875 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 2: really really silent. And Virginia we got them at plus five. 876 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 2: The consensus is plus four and a half. Right now, 877 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,800 Speaker 2: we like either number. That's not a key number. Virginia 878 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 2: plus points four and a half are better at Illinois. 879 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 2: Now it's time to add two more paper pop. Oklahoma 880 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 2: State is hosting Arizona State. The line is eleven or 881 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: eleven and a half. There are plenty of elevens out there. 882 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 2: Eleven's the number we're going with, but I like eleven and. 883 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: A half two. 884 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 2: They are in still Water this Saturday hosting Arizona State. 885 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 2: We've got Oklahoma State winning by sixteen. So we are 886 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 2: taking the Cowboys minus eleven. And also, even though we 887 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 2: can't fit it on our fancy graphic here, I am 888 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 2: adding Baylor Baylor plus three and a half or you 889 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 2: know what, because three is the more findable number right now. 890 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: There are three and a half's out there. 891 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna I'm gonna make a I'm gonna make 892 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 2: an ethics move here. We're gonna take Baylor plus three, 893 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 2: Baylor plus the points we do pick them to win 894 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 2: outright in provo. 895 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 1: So Baylor plus three. Let me make sure I mark 896 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: that down here. 897 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State minus eleven, Virginia plus five, Eastern Michigan plus 898 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 2: ten and a half, West Virginia minus thirteen South Carolina 899 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,879 Speaker 2: at Arkansas plus fifty two and a half. All right, now, 900 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 2: what was surprisingly fun the other night? I'm gonna look 901 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 2: over here. I'm gonna pull this computer in close to me, 902 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 2: and I see that you guys are revved up, and 903 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 2: I am just going to invite you talk about whatever 904 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 2: you want to talk about. 905 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: Any more questions. 906 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 2: This is Thursday, We're gonna get on a plane and 907 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 2: go to Texas tomorrow. 908 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: So the predictions are pretty much over. Is there anything 909 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: that we have not hit? Do I think FSU's Week 910 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 1: zero game helped them over LSU? I know, No. I 911 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: think you can make the argument either way. 912 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 2: I am sure that I could talk to that LSU 913 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 2: coaching staff and they enjoyed seeing you play in week zero. No, 914 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 2: I think you just out executed him. 915 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: Paxton. 916 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,479 Speaker 2: I'll see you tomorrow, Bud. Where's the show for week four? 917 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 2: A Parker? That's a good question. It's undecided. But let 918 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 2: me drop a little nugget. Here's a reward for watching 919 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 2: the live show tonight. Wherever we are next week, wherever 920 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 2: the every given Saturday tour is next week. We will 921 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 2: have a live show from your campus on Thursday. First 922 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 2: time we've said that on air. Yes, we'll have our 923 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,240 Speaker 2: brand new desk out on the road and everything. 924 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: Big game. 925 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 2: Dane is going to grace us with his presence. Can 926 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 2: you believe it? Pulling out all the stops next week? 927 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 2: How do I keep my shirt so white? I just 928 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 2: have my mom send me new ones. Auburn new quarterback. 929 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 2: I think that you will see two of them this Saturday, 930 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 2: and that begs the question, well, who are we going 931 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 2: to see against Penn State? 932 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 1: Who they play? 933 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 2: You know, we got one more tune up down there 934 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 2: at Auburn and then you've got Penn State coming in, 935 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 2: so we'll see. Can North Carolina hold anyone under four 936 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,280 Speaker 2: hundred yards of offense for four quarters? 937 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: No, I don't think so. 938 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 2: Texas and and recruiting class think they're going to surge 939 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: and I think they will finish top ten. Don't have 940 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 2: much doubt about that. Do I think Alabama has anything 941 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 2: for Georgia this year? Yeah, I think they're I think 942 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 2: they'd be favored if they played today, So luckily it's 943 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 2: September and it's a waste of time to. 944 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 1: Talk about that. Yeah, I do think very much. 945 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 2: So. 946 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: Look the whole Bama Georgia thing. 947 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: I was on Dogs twenty four seven the other day, 948 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 2: and they get aggravated when I have Bama in the 949 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 2: same sentence as them, which I get because they don't 950 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 2: want to be compared to anyone. Here's what I had 951 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 2: to say over there on the Dog vent. The national 952 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:42,760 Speaker 2: audience connects via metaphor and comparison, and the only program 953 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 2: out there to compare Georgia to right now is Alabama. 954 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 1: So I'm thinking about Alabama. Last year. 955 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 2: They opened against Miami in Atlanta, say building, Georgia just 956 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,320 Speaker 2: played them, and they ran through Miami. 957 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 1: I mean talking about it. 958 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 2: It was really, really ugly, and everyone looked at him 959 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,439 Speaker 2: and said, no one's beaten Alabama this year. Well, yeah 960 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 2: they were. Georgia did later in the year. I'm pausing 961 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 2: because I know some of you are saying something right now. 962 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 1: You're saying, well, yeah, but they wouldn't have beat him 963 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 1: if we didn't have injuries. That's football, though, whether that's 964 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: true or not, that's football. 965 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 2: That's my whole point. You don't make proclamations in September. 966 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 2: You don't make conclusions in September. So as good as 967 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 2: Georgia looked in Week one, there could be flaws on 968 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 2: that team that because you've only seen one version of them. 969 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,399 Speaker 2: Oregon wasn't built too expose. Bama had some last year. 970 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 2: Do We didn't know how average that Alabama offensive line 971 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 2: was going to be based off. 972 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 1: The Miami game, but they were. 973 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 2: We didn't know that the offensive line coaching higher was 974 00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 2: going to be viewed as a borderline disaster because of 975 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 2: the Miami game, but it was so who knows. I 976 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 2: think Georgia looks spectacular right now. I think they look 977 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 2: like a machine. My point is, I'm going to ask 978 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 2: for a few more weeks with both of those teams, 979 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 2: with Ohio State, with everyone else, I would suggest you 980 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:58,839 Speaker 2: don't sell Utah down the river quite yet. 981 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: But that's just me. Louisville starting zero. 982 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 2: To three, I actually think they've got a reasonable shot 983 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 2: against Central Florida this weekend. Let's just keep an eye. 984 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 2: Louisville's one of those teams they let us down. I mean, 985 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: they crushed our souls in week one. We had them, 986 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,359 Speaker 2: We bet them at Syracuse and they sucked water through 987 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 2: a garden hose. They could be one of those teams, 988 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 2: and Saderfield could be one of those coaches that's feeling 989 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 2: about as much pressure as anyone this week. 990 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: They could be one of those springboard bounce back type teams. 991 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 2: I could easily see them going down there to Orlando 992 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:37,360 Speaker 2: and winning outright, and you're watching it saying, how is 993 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 2: this the same team? How is it possible this is 994 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,839 Speaker 2: a collection of the same individuals that did what they 995 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 2: did last week. They lost thirty one to seven at 996 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 2: Syracuse last week. 997 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 1: Gross. Gross. 998 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,919 Speaker 2: And they go to Central Florida this Saturday and they're 999 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 2: a five point dog. Does that make sense to you? No, Well, 1000 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 2: watch football for a few years and it will. And 1001 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 2: then they got Florida State. I think that's a Friday 1002 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 2: night game coming up. I'm trying to make sure the 1003 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 2: Central Florida game is not Friday night. But I know 1004 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 2: that FSU game is Friday night so much so I 1005 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 2: gotta itt you nose here. I've considered driving up there 1006 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 2: to that one. I don't depends on where we're going. 1007 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,919 Speaker 1: To be next week. I don't think they're gonna start 1008 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,799 Speaker 1: owing three. That's my answer. I don't think they're gonna 1009 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: start owing three. Why is Brian Kelly a bad coach? 1010 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 1: He's not. That's dumb. 1011 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 2: Next up, who finishes with the top recruiting class. My 1012 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 2: pick right now would be Alabama. Vandy will steamroll South Carolina. 1013 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,280 Speaker 2: It's not even a question, just more of a comment, 1014 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 2: not for me, but from the chat. Should NC State 1015 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 2: be worried about last week's performance? Absolutely they should. They 1016 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 2: should have lost the game. I hesitate to say that. 1017 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 2: I know there's someone Washington, Forts and Georgia tonight. That 1018 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 2: does not like the word should have when it comes 1019 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 2: to a result in a football game. When I say 1020 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 2: they should have lost the game, I mean I watched 1021 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 2: incredible amounts of breaks go in C State's way to 1022 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 2: get that. I think it was twenty one to twenty 1023 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 2: Jesse get that one point win against East Carolina, and yeah, yeah, I'd. 1024 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: Be worried about it. 1025 00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:07,720 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be worried about it to the point where 1026 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 2: you know, I mail it in in the season. If 1027 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 2: I'm sitting here talking about how Louisville could rebound after 1028 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 2: a thirty one to seven beat down, certainly I think 1029 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 2: NC State can narrowly get by in a win and 1030 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 2: be Okay, we've seen it happen before. But I don't 1031 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 2: take nothing from it. I'll say that, yeah, I was 1032 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,359 Speaker 2: kind of ugly. Oregon will win ten games this year, 1033 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 2: So I don't think that. But I didn't think that 1034 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 2: in the preseason. I had them winning nine games in 1035 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 2: the preseason. I will say I haven't changed my prediction 1036 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 2: for Oregon. 1037 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: So you got some. 1038 00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 2: Folks in here saying they're gonna win ten games. I 1039 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 2: still think they can have a good season. Like they 1040 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 2: play Eastern Washington this week. Do you see who they 1041 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 2: got next week at home? Bring them young, they go 1042 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 2: to Washington State. That's when conference play opens up. My 1043 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 2: point there is they could still be a good team. 1044 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 2: They are not a finished product. They certainly weren't a 1045 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 2: finished product. They just got finished in week one. But 1046 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 2: they're not a finished product. So it's too early in 1047 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 2: the season. Also for anybody to be losing a locker 1048 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 2: room or to be losing hope. That doesn't happen. Even 1049 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 2: for the teams that's gonna happen to that's not happening 1050 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 2: in week two. So I think Oregon will be fine. 1051 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 2: There are plenty of wins on that schedule. They got Utah, 1052 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 2: but they don't have him until the second to last 1053 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 2: week of the year. Hey, that Oregon State game at 1054 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 2: the end of the year, if it were to go 1055 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,839 Speaker 2: sideways for Oregon, I mean, that could be a game 1056 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 2: where they're a dog. 1057 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 1: Not because they're terrible. 1058 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 2: I just think Oregon State's the best kept secret on 1059 00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 2: the West coast right now. Does Hendon Hooker have a 1060 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 2: chance at a Heisman invite? 1061 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 1: Of course he does. 1062 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it obviously he's got to put up the numbers. 1063 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,359 Speaker 2: We talked about what it would take for him back 1064 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 2: in the summer, but also keep an eye on what 1065 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 2: Stroud does. 1066 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: Keep an eye on what Bryce Young does. You get it? 1067 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 2: Did you see the Doctor Prepper commercial with Young, the 1068 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 2: newest one, the one they released today. Acting is hard. 1069 00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,839 Speaker 2: That's why I just I'm the same person every day 1070 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,600 Speaker 2: because acting is hard, and Bryce Young is not a 1071 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,480 Speaker 2: professional actor. But you can tell people who can act, 1072 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 2: and you can tell others like some of these nil 1073 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 2: commercials are horrific. 1074 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,320 Speaker 1: A lot of you like them. They're terrible. They suck. 1075 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 2: Bryce Young could go to Hollywood tomorrow. He's got the 1076 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 2: smile and he's got the acting chops. And if you 1077 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,839 Speaker 2: don't know, trust me, if you watch college football, you're 1078 00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 2: going to see that Doctor Prepper commercial. Approximately, hold on, 1079 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:29,000 Speaker 2: I got it written down here three million times this season. 1080 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,480 Speaker 2: Bryce Young can act. No one asked about it, but 1081 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 2: I'm telling you Bryce Young can act. Oregon State at 1082 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:39,279 Speaker 2: Fresno State test or not. Harry asked, yes, this is 1083 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 2: one of the sneakiest good games this Saturday that I 1084 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 2: know most of you are not going to watch Oregon 1085 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 2: State at Fresno State. The line is one either way. 1086 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 2: Make it a point to watch that one. Oregon State 1087 00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 2: has got a lot of anonymity about themselves. Oregon State 1088 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,400 Speaker 2: is like the West Coast version of Mississippi State. Mississippi 1089 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,399 Speaker 2: State is a really good team, but no one's talking 1090 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,720 Speaker 2: about him cause of the division they're in. Oregon State 1091 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 2: probably not being talked about because the Oregon State and 1092 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 2: you don't know anything about him because they're on the 1093 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 2: West Coast. Rapidly improving program, rapidly underrated coach, not amongst coaches, 1094 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 2: but amongst the general college football public. Jonathan Smith's a 1095 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:14,759 Speaker 2: really good coach and they've got a really good and 1096 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:19,359 Speaker 2: improving program. Bryce Young fixing to get sacked all day 1097 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 2: and throwing picks. 1098 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 1: Who's sacking him? That's an open ended question. I mean, 1099 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,160 Speaker 1: did Texas figure out how to pressure quarterbacks overnight? Is 1100 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: Alabama's offensive line going to struggle that bad on the road. 1101 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,359 Speaker 2: I don't necessarily think so. I mean, I know Utah 1102 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 2: State got pressure against him in Week one. I also 1103 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,399 Speaker 2: see what he did once they pressured him. 1104 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 1: Still running, still running, still running, still running. 1105 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:45,240 Speaker 2: Slide, Bryce Slide. He needs to act like he can slide. 1106 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 2: He acts in the Doctor Prepper commercial. 1107 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:47,439 Speaker 1: Just fine. 1108 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 2: He needs to act like he knows how to slide. 1109 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 2: How can some of the best athletes in the world 1110 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 2: be so terrible at sliding? Jesse's played softball with me, 1111 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 2: he knows I got one of the best pop up 1112 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,799 Speaker 2: slides in the world. And yet I'm not starting a 1113 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 2: quarterback for Alabama cause I chose to play baseball next up? 1114 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 1: What do we have here? 1115 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 2: Do I think the general sports media is overreacting to 1116 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 2: Brian Kelly losing his first game? Uh? 1117 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah I do. I sure do. I think we 1118 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 1: went pretty in depth on that the other night. 1119 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,280 Speaker 2: But yeah, I sure do. They'll win Saturday against Southern 1120 00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 2: then they've got such an incredibly tantalizing I think is 1121 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,840 Speaker 2: the right word. A tantalizing game in Week three. Do 1122 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:33,120 Speaker 2: you know who they play? They played Mississippi State and 1123 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 2: they play them at home, and that will be already incredible. 1124 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,440 Speaker 2: Though it may be to say a do or die situation. 1125 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:41,959 Speaker 2: Even though no one's going to die if they lose 1126 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 2: and no coach is gonna get fired if they lose, 1127 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 2: someone somewhere is gonna say. 1128 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 1: Hey, it's do or die this week for LSU. Well, 1129 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: no it's not. No, it's not. 1130 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 2: But it will be a very very intriguing and pressure 1131 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 2: packed game. Hey USC, someone just mentioned USC. So they 1132 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 2: play Stanford this weekend, and we didn't do a game breakdown, 1133 00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 2: which is the way David Shaw likes it. And there 1134 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 2: is a situation out there with McKee at quarterback, and 1135 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 2: you know that you've got Caleb Williams at quarterback at USC. 1136 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,280 Speaker 2: It's going to be a very very intriguing quarterback matchup 1137 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:18,280 Speaker 2: out there this week that is not getting any national attention. 1138 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:21,280 Speaker 2: USC opened, I think, is about a twelve or thirteen 1139 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 2: point favorite. It's come down to nine or eight, and 1140 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 2: it's because they won convincingly against Food in week one. 1141 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: They just chewed rice up. 1142 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,759 Speaker 2: But it wasn't because offense just hummed and put up 1143 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 2: seven hundred total yards. 1144 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 1: Now it counts, it counts, but. 1145 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 2: I think a lot of odds makers looked at it 1146 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,240 Speaker 2: and said, we're not gonna We're not about to inflate 1147 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,960 Speaker 2: a point spread because of that performance in week one. 1148 00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: Let's keep an eye on it. 1149 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 2: Stanford's been off that radar for a few years, but 1150 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 2: they got the same staff out there, it's the same 1151 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 2: head coach. It's just that, you know, the conference kind 1152 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 2: of caught up with them, but let's keep an eye 1153 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:57,399 Speaker 2: on that one. 1154 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 1: They liked that quarterback they've got at Stanford. They like it. 1155 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 2: Josh Payt channeling his inner Beno Cook Stephen. My favorite 1156 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,320 Speaker 2: thing about being No Cook used to be is hatred 1157 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:08,920 Speaker 2: for baseball. 1158 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:09,760 Speaker 1: I love baseball. 1159 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 2: Beno Cook used to do the same thing every year 1160 00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:15,280 Speaker 2: in August. He used to do the national speaking circuit, 1161 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 2: and he used to openly say, as an elderly, a 1162 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 2: very seasoned citizen, he used to openly pray that if 1163 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:26,280 Speaker 2: he was going to die, did God take him before 1164 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 2: the season starts, because he could not bear to start 1165 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 2: a season and not know who the national champion was. 1166 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 2: I don't remember exactly when Bino Cook passed away. I 1167 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 2: don't think it was during a season, though, so kind 1168 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 2: of got it the. 1169 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 1: Way you want him. 1170 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 2: Teams to buy stock in hold that thought. I think 1171 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 2: we're going to do that segment next week. Missouri at 1172 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 2: Kansas Morgan everybody or Kansas State. Everybody in the world 1173 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:54,319 Speaker 2: is on the Kansas State sleeper train. Missouri is a 1174 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,360 Speaker 2: seven and a half point dog at Kansas State. I 1175 00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 2: gave consideration to making that an other pick, but the 1176 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 2: model would not agree with me, and so when the 1177 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 2: model doesn't agree with me, what happens is I'm typing 1178 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,359 Speaker 2: and he just boom, it closes on my hand. 1179 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 1: So I'm not going to pick it. 1180 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 2: I mean, I would slightly lean Missouri plus points slightly. 1181 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,400 Speaker 2: I don't have a strong feel on it. I just 1182 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:21,399 Speaker 2: I don't. I get that Kansas State's a solid team. 1183 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 2: That's about what I get. They're a solid team. That's 1184 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 2: all I want to say. Tomorrow is your birthday? Well, 1185 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,400 Speaker 2: happy birthday tomorrow.
