1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal ull that for me, I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty.

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 2: I've heard so many players say, well, I want to

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 2: be happy. You want to be happy for a day

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 2: at the stake?

6
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 3: Is that?

7
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: Woo woo?

8
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 3: And Dan and tie Dan Rubinstein. Week six was a

9
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 3: terrible week to be a top eleven team, was it not.

10
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm in retrospect, I feel pretty good as

11
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 2: an Oregon Human defense isn't a nice place. But there

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 2: were moments, there were swaths of time where I was

13
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 2: questioning everything about what Oregon might be able to do

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: this year still might be. But I got off easy

15
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: because it was tough.

16
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 3: We have been doing this show since two thousand and eight,

17
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 3: as many people who listen know, and on occasional you

18
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 3: have weeks like this where you look at the slate

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 3: and we've joked for eons now, Oh, it's always the

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 3: quiet ones.

21
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: It's always the quiet ones.

22
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 3: We even called this week Snaggletuo Saturday, just on the

23
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 3: assumption that hey, there are some jagged edges out there

24
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 3: and we have questions about teams. I mean even Alabama,

25
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 3: which came out on top in that Georgia game a

26
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 3: week ago. You know, how they finished that game left

27
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 3: I think a little bit to be desired. So just

28
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 3: some general questions around college football. It's still so early.

29
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 3: You don't know who is good, who isn't good. You

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 3: understand where I'm going with this, So we gave it

31
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 3: that name. We assume that there would be some degree

32
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: of madness, but nothing nothing like this. At time of recording,

33
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: five of the top eleven teams in college football straight

34
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 3: up lost. Cal is playing and beating Miami as we speak.

35
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: We will provide.

36
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 3: Updates in real time for the people who are listening

37
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 3: after the fact, which is always weird. We're recording this

38
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 3: at midnight Eastern on Saturday. We'll do our best to

39
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 3: try and keep you as up to date as possible.

40
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 3: The team that made out the best this week, frankly,

41
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 3: was Texas because it was on buy. It didn't play,

42
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 3: it didn't play, and didn't have to deal with with

43
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 3: any of this madness, Dan Rubinstein, So yeah, to say

44
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 3: the least, welcome one, Welcome all. If you're new here,

45
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 3: hit follow, hit subscribe. We have a lot to get

00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 3: through today, do we not?

47
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: We absolutely do. And god, it was what three days ago,

48
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: four days ago where you laughed in my virtual face

49
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 2: when I said, Alabama off of a big emotional win

50
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 2: on the road taking on Diego Pavia and I took

51
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: those points. Did I call it out right?

52
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: Ty?

53
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 3: You better believe I did not. You definitely did not

54
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 3: call it out right, but.

55
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: I did get I got giggled in giggled at by

56
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 2: you when I took those points. And you know, it

57
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 2: was just like a roulette wheel for me, right, Like

58
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 2: I just threw a few chips here, a few chips there.

59
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: I said, look at all these teams coming off of Bye,

60
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: look at all these like weird home dog situations with

61
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: feisty defense and not a lot of worked out. But

62
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: all you need is a couple of chips on the

63
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 2: right number tie. And it was damn it was a

64
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: fun week.

65
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:07,640

70
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: I guess you don't put the chips on the roulette

71
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: wheel itself on the board.

72
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: They do not allow that you put it on the board.

73
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 3: You have to have super frowned upon tie. I had

74
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: the hard way. They had that little plastic cook that

75
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 3: they pushed the chips around with.

76
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: No, you can't put it on the wheel. That was

77
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: sort of don't love for us. No.

Speaker 1: Part of our Tuesday spillover episodes.

89
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 3: So yeah, let's go kind of have like two recap episodes.

90
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: Here is the lay of the land. Okay, let's go.

91
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 3: Here's Leyland banda lost. Tennessee lost, Missouri got hammered. I

92
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 3: don't even count that as a loss.

93
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 1: They got murdered.

94
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

95
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 3: Michigan and USC also lost out of your top eleven,

96
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 3: of course, though Dan the big one of the day,

97
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 3: Vandy beat Alabama.

98
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: They did.

99
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 3: Bandy beat Alabama by a forty to thirty five score.

100
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 3: This game was the epitome of snaggle tooth Saturday, Dan,

101
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 3: you gotta watch for the jagged edges. Even still, even

102
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 3: you and your infinite wisdom taking Vandy in.

103
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: The points.

104
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 3: Could not have predicted a plot twist quite like this.

105
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 3: It was just one week after Alabama knocked off Georgia.

106
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: Bama goes on the road. They lose by five. Yeah.

107
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: Immediately following the win, fans obviously stormed the field. I

108
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 3: don't know if you saw, but on the jumbo tron

109
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 3: and the PA system, of course, they played the clip

110
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 3: of and the audio for Nick Saban and his game

111
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 3: day quote about how the easiest place to play in

112
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: the SEC is Vanderbilt. Fans subsequently tore down the goalposts.

113
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: I believe they paraded it down Broadway in Nashville if

114
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 3: I saw correctly.

115
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: Yep, just kind of a cool scene.

116
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 3: For lack of better terms, this is, in the entire

117
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 3: span of time that we've been doing this show, one

118
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 3: of the craziest results I can ever imagine.

119
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 2: Have you seen the movie slum Dog Millionaire? I have,

120
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 2: so Obviously the big not twists, But the reveal in

121
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: it is he knows all of those answers because a

122
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: very specific life experience is coming across the answers on

123
00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 2: that game show. The way that Vanderbilt beat Alabama, plays

124
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: that they called, the situations they found themselves in, the

125
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: play calls that they called that resulted in huge plays

126
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 2: on third and short, fourth and short whatever. It felt

127
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 2: like that was all assembled over the course of this season.

128
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 4: Right.

129
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: It didn't feel like it was like the game plan

130
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: was come up with Tuesday, late at night or something

131
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 2: like that. It felt like the culmination of weeks and

132
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: weeks of worth, weeks and weeks of work and preparation.

133
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 2: Because you look at how long Vandy had the ball,

134
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 2: You look at the plays that Diego Pavia was able

135
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: to make, You look at the confidence that Vandy was

136
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 2: able to play with against Alabama the week after they

137
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 2: beat Georgia, that there was something bigger about what Vandy

138
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: put into this game. And why wouldn't you, right, everybody,

139
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 2: you're gonna circle this game, you know, in the summer,

140
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 2: in the spring, whatever, if you're Vanderbilt with all the

141
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 2: changes that they made, bringing in Diego Pavia, bringing in

142
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 2: Jerry Kill and Tim Beck, all these guys losing who

143
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 2: they lost on both sides of the ball, that this

144
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 2: was a game that they were just ready to kick

145
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 2: at in from the opening moments of the game, whether

146
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 2: it was the pick six, whether it was the strip sack,

147
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: whether it was just maintaining possession as long as they

148
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 2: did absorbing whatever it was that Jalen Milroe or Milroe

149
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: excuse me, right, we got a note. I apologize Dalen

150
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,679
Speaker 2: Milroe and Ryan Williams were able to accomplish together magically.

151
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 2: I should add Ryan Williams's magic, I don't. I don't

152
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: have a better adjective for Ryan Williams at this point.

153
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 2: And he is seventeen fact check that, yeah, fact check

154
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: seventeen years old. It was masterful. Vanderbilt was masterful at home.

155
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: And this is just what Diego Pavia does to sec

156
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: t well. So here are favored to beat Diego Pavia.

157
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 3: Here's the thing, here's one of the interesting factoids that

158
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 3: I was able to mine. Yeah, before this game, Diego

159
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 3: Pavia was tied with Eric Dungeee longtime oh the show. Yeah,

160
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 3: and Skyler Thompson formerly of Case States now with the

161
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: Dolphins for the most wins by a quarterback in games

162
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: where their team was a twenty one or more point

163
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: underdog over the last twenty season.

164
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: He at least did that against Skyla Thompson, against Oklahoma

165
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 2: at least once.

166
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 3: Right, they each had two. All three of those guys

167
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 3: had two. Obviously, now this gives Diego Pavia three. It

168
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 3: was clear that Van he just built the whole point

169
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 3: out of him. And yeah, he continually found.

170
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 2: Way Eli Stours two was an important, sure deal here, Yeah, yeah, sure,

171
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 2: but Pavia was the engine and it was clear that

172
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: he was finding ways to make big plays without making

173
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: big mistakes, which is a big deal. And you know,

174
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 2: we could talk about what else transpired this week and

175
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: how other mistakes did kind of dictate how this week

176
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 2: went down.

177
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: But Diego Pavia did not falter in this moment.

178
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 3: And I don't know how many people had Diego Pavia

179
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,199
Speaker 3: out playing Jalen Milroe on the Bengo card. But here

180
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 3: we are, right, Yes, what struck me was this. If

181
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 3: you watch this game, even if you didn't, you mentioned

182
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,599
Speaker 3: some of the moments, the ricochet off the pick, the

183
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 3: ricochet off the player that led to a pick six,

184
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 3: the strip sack that type of thing. These games always

185
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 3: have moments oftentimes though they feel like a fluke. Yeah,

186
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 3: this did not feel like a fluke to me. I

187
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 3: watched the whole game. This was not a fluke. Vandy

188
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 3: never trailed in this game. They held the ball for

189
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: forty two minutes. As you said, you can only control

190
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 3: that much of the football if your offensive line is

191
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 3: playing well, and it did play well. You could only

192
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 3: control the ball that long if you're effective on third downs.

193
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 3: They were twelve of eighteen on third downs. It doesn't

194
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 3: matter if you're playing Bama. If you're playing Alabama State,

195
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 3: who cares. Twelve of eighteen is a really good number

196
00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 3: on third route, right, Yeah, it's incredible. So this was

197
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 3: against Ala Frickin' Bama at home a week after that

198
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 3: big win. For Vandy to go out there and essentially

199
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 3: be dominant in the manner that they was to the

200
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 3: degree that they could be dominant, is a huge deal

201
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 3: for clark Lee. It validates all the offseason changes that

202
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 3: you described earlier. You bring it in basically New Mexico State.

203
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 2: But losing right losing the receivers. It was Nate Clifton,

204
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 2: the key defensive lineman to USC A couple of years ago,

205
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 2: was it Ray Davis to Kentucky? Right right? I read

206
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 2: this a young, promising team.

207
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: So they're now three and two.

208
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 3: They stand an excellent chance to get the six wins

209
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 3: to go to a bowl, which frankly two months ago

210
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 3: is inconceivable. And I would just shift gears a little

211
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: bit and say, on the Bama side, I mean, I

212
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,959
Speaker 3: know we want to celebrate Vandy, but on the Bama side, obviously,

213
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 3: this raises a few questions if if you follow the

214
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 3: newsletter like Jake and I in this week's version, talked

215
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 3: about Klein de Borr trying to conjure the spirit of

216
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 3: Nick Saban talking about the rat poison. Everybody remembers his

217
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 3: rat poison comment. Yeah, and Kaitlyn de bor went so

218
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 3: far as to set rat traps around the football building

219
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 3: just to remind people like, you're not as good. You're

220
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 3: never as good as the media wants you to believe

221
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 3: you are. And we're now working on six straight quarters.

222
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 3: I'd say of curious play by Alabama got off to

223
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 3: a big lead against Georgia, allowed Georgia to come back

224
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 3: into that game the last two quarters.

225
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: Now we had four quarters of this.

226
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 3: There are still four ranked teams in this schedule, as

227
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 3: well as a road game at South Carolina next week

228
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 3: and then the Iron Bowl to close things out. Alabama's

229
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 3: got a long way to go. This is not to

230
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,719
Speaker 3: say they're a bad team, This is not to say

231
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 3: that they're in danger of really anything. But they got

232
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 3: to shore up whatever is going on here over the

233
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 3: last game and a half.

234
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be a not a wet blanket. I don't

235
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 2: know what I'm gonna be here. This was a not

236
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 2: great day for Alabama. And we shouldn't judge Alabama and

237
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 2: the Kaylen de Bor era on the Vanderbilt game, just

238
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,040
Speaker 2: like we shouldn't judge them on the back half of

239
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 2: the Georgia game, and we shouldn't judge them on the

240
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 2: first half of the Georgia game or the fourth quarter

241
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 2: against USF any of their highs and any of their lows.

242
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: It's Kaylin de Bor's first year. This is not a

243
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 2: team that he recruited. This is him using and that's

244
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 2: not necessarily a bad thing, but this is not something

245
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 2: that we can This is not a mandate or whatever

246
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 2: on Kaylan de Bor. A referendum. A referendum, excuse me,

247
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 2: Thank you. And so the story to me is still

248
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 2: Vanderbilt and as good as Jalen Milroe is and Ryan

249
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 2: Williams and you know, all the running backs for Bama,

250
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,719
Speaker 2: the playmakers on defense, this is Vanny. This is a

251
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 2: situational This is situational magic for the Doors and a

252
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 2: program defining win for Clarkly, who, by the way, never

253
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 2: too high, never too low. Clarklely just sort of had

254
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: his hands up at the end of it and was

255
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 2: just like very happy for these guys, like even like

256
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 2: his like halftime interviews, his like mid quarter interviews, like.

257
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens.

258
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: Like there's just there's not a lot of fire to him.

259
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that is an negative thing, and

260
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 2: it was. It's it was just an interesting watch that

261
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: they just sort of were steady, Eddy kept going at Bama.

262
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, just to put it in context and then we'll

263
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 3: move on. Vandy had been owen sixty as a program. Yeah,

264
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 3: before this game against ap top five teams. Clarkley obviously

265
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 3: gets a big one here the situation as a whole.

266
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 2: Did you see what I tweeted out, by the way

267
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 2: about that stat Oh well.

268
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,599
Speaker 3: They were oh in sixty, but they can't expect me.

269
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 3: Nobody beats Bandy sixty one straight time. There's an old shirt.

270
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 3: Was like nobody beats Vitas Garrolitas seventeen straight times after

271
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 3: Bjorn Born beat him sixteen times in a row. Daniel

272
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 3: the other thing, if we zoom out a little bit more,

273
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 3: not just within the context of Vandy, but yeah, Alabama's

274
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 3: just the fourth number one team in the ap pole

275
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 3: era to lose a game to an unranked opponent the

276
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,599
Speaker 3: week after beating a top two ranked opponent. And furthermore,

277
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 3: this has not happened since nineteen sixty You gotta go

278
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 3: back eighty three years. No, what is that sixty three years?

279
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 3: I'm not a math major.

280
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: It's been a long time.

281
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 3: It's been a long time, and these situations come about

282
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 3: once in a blue moon.

283
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: So good on Vandy.

284
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 3: Apologies to any Alabama fans out there. You will ultimately

285
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: be fine. And probably they're not listening. They're not listening,

286
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 3: but they are listening. They'll download and support. But to

287
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 3: the I think they're going to take the week off,

288
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 3: especially as you turn into like Tie Hammond over there

289
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 3: with the fun facts to just drive that screwdriver in

290
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: a little bit more The next upset point number two

291
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 3: was Arkansas nineteen Tennessee fourteen, Dan.

292
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: God, I should have gone with my gut here.

293
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 2: I talked about scratching off Arkansas, scratching off Tennessee, scratching

294
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: off Arkansas, going.

295
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: With the balls.

296
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 3: This was my lock of the week, Tennessee minus thirteen

297
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 3: and a half.

298
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 2: You had it big, right, Wasn't it like fifty one

299
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 2: to fourteen or something?

300
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 3: My final, my projected final was forty eight seventeen. I

301
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 3: was a little bit wrong of note.

302
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: Tennessee was favored by thirteen and a half.

303
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 3: They only scored four thirteen in this game. This was

304
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 3: three to nil at halftime in favor of Arkansas. They

305
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 3: clearly had a very good game plan to disrupt. The

306
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 3: crowd was rocking. It was obviously helpful that they were

307
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 3: at home here. And what I came away feeling was

308
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 3: basically the opposite of what I said when we did

309
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 3: the Thursday previous show. And on Thursday I was waxing

310
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 3: poetic about how Nico is cut differently, which I still

311
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 3: believe he is.

312
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 2: Oh man, the height of Nico is great, But this

313
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 2: is not the night to wax not that about Nico's ceiling.

314
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: No, no, no, But my point was not.

315
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 3: About his physical tools or how he can throw the

316
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 3: ball fifty yards on a rope off the short leg

317
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: like he did late in the game, which you and

318
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 3: I were, yeah, kind.

319
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 2: Of what and what and it just googling over immediately

320
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: before he ran out of bounds of five seconds left,

321
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 2: not attempting a game winning for.

322
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: Immediately before that.

323
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Nico, at least in previous situations like this, the

324
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 3: few that we have seen did not seem brattled.

325
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: I thought he seemed brattled. I thought so too.

326
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 3: I thought he seemed brattled, And I guess that's a

327
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 3: sign that he is human. After all, all the kickers

328
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 3: in college football may have turned into aliens and they're

329
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 3: now hitting fifty five yarders. But to assume that Nico

330
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 3: was this alien quarterback who is going to come in

331
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 3: there his first year as a full time starter in

332
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 3: big SEC play with Tennessee riding high and a playoff

333
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 3: kind of at their you know, with well within reach,

334
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 3: and to assume that he would not feel any the

335
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 3: pressure this season was probably bridge too far.

336
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, also we saw it here.

337
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: You think about the context of Nico's young career at Tennessee. Right,

338
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 2: five Star comes in is like poster boy for like

339
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: the crazy money surrounding the nil world eight million dollars

340
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 2: allegedly right, coming in and winning a bowl game and

341
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: coming into a program that's putting up bonkers offensive numbers

342
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 2: and sending Hendon Hooker to New York and like, I

343
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 2: don't know, maybe the best of Joe Milton, but like

344
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: this is such a quarterback friendly offense, and he is

345
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 2: an athlete in the way that Joe Milton and Hendon

346
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 2: Hooker aren't necessarily. And you know, there's like the legend

347
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 2: of Nico. He sits for you. You can't wait to

348
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 2: see what he does. The receivers that come into the

349
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 2: program and Chris Brazl and Bruce McCoy, Dante Thornton, right,

350
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 2: like all of this firepower, the emergence of Dylan Samson,

351
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 2: and we forget he's a young quarterback in the SEC.

352
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 2: He's a young quarterback that's going to be thrust into

353
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 2: difficult environments whether or not the team is excellent. But

354
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 2: like I mean, I'm raising my hand here too. I'm

355
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 2: guilty of saying, like I think he's gonna be like

356
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 2: one of the best five quarterbacks in the sport, like

357
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 2: I'm heaping praise upon him, like he has arrived, but

358
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: like process is continuing. And the story here to me

359
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: is on the other side of the ball. That Arkansas

360
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 2: with their close calls this season, with their struggles at

361
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 2: time this season, you know, going even just last week

362
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 2: against Texas A and M, and the way that the

363
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 2: offense was shut down in the offensive line was overwhelmed

364
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 2: by Texas A and M, which, by the way, looks

365
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: a little bit better considering what Texas A and M

366
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 2: did today. That Arkansas is fighting impressively now. Probably should

367
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 2: have taken advantage and won that Oklahoma State game because

368
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 2: that game is aged worse with Oklahoma State season continuing

369
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 2: the way it has. But who is it, Braylan Russell

370
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 2: the running back, just the huge runs near the end

371
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: of that game, like big dude, big dude, big dude,

372
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 2: Taylor Green going down with what looked like an ugly

373
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 2: injury but popped onto his feet and it was Micah

374
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 2: Singleton coming in and making some plays with his feet

375
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 2: and a couple of screens here and there.

376
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Malachi sa four star, yeah, former four.

377
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 2: Star, And I don't know, man, Arkansas just piecing together

378
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 2: this win, getting Tennessee the hell off the field in

379
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 2: that first half. You mentioned being shut out in that

380
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: first half. I mean it's tantalizing. Now for Arkansas, we're like,

381
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 2: all right, what do we know the rest of the season.

382
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 2: We just shut out ten See in the first half

383
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 2: and took him down. What are we doing to back

384
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 2: this up? But man, what an impressive Saturday night in feetfel.

385
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: It really was.

386
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 3: And on the point of tailing Green, I mean, we

387
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 3: talked about this a couple times over now the raw

388
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 3: ability of tailing Green is there and you can see

389
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 3: it on display on most plays. Key word raw, Yeah,

390
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 3: very raw. He is a raw talent, but the best

391
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 3: of him is really exciting. He made two throws late

392
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 3: on consecutive plays sort of fades down the sidelines one

393
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 3: after the other, that were just dimes, absolute perfect throws.

394
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 3: He is obviously very mobile. Hopefully he is not injured

395
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 3: for any period of time he was up on his feet.

396
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,719
Speaker 3: It looks like it's not going to be super serious,

397
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 3: although it did have the hallmark of one of those

398
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 3: bad knee injuries. I think he will be okay based

399
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 3: on what we saw, but we'll wait to get the

400
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 3: official report there if they are able to sort of

401
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 3: rain him in and get more performances like the one

402
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 3: we saw tonight against a very good defense. This is

403
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 3: the other thing about this. Say what you want about

404
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 3: Arkansas's defense holding down the Tennessee offense, which in and

405
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 3: of itself is an accomplishment, but this Arkansas offense going

406
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 3: up against this Tennessee defense is its own matchup to

407
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 3: talk about. That's its own podcast because this is a

408
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 3: really good Tennessee pass rush and defense as a whole.

409
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 3: And for this guy who we had questions about his

410
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 3: decision making and some of the rawness that we have

411
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 3: seen on display, for him to cut them up the

412
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 3: way that he did, this is a really damn pressive performance.

413
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 3: To throw over two sixty six, not turn the ball

414
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 3: over through the air. He outplayed Nico. He out played

415
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,479
Speaker 3: Nico in this game, and he did so as basically

416
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 3: a two touchdown dog.

417
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And the space in the CEC of teams that

418
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 2: you don't want any part of in the wrong week,

419
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 2: not necessarily like the proven great teams, excellent teams, super

420
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 2: talented teams. I don't even know who's on that list.

421
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 2: In this moment, I think Georgia is. I think Alabama

422
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 2: likely still is. Texas most certainly is. We'll see after

423
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:24,399
Speaker 2: that Tennessee's ceiling most certainly is. But the grouping of

424
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 2: teams and we'll see what Kentucky's able to do and

425
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 2: in terms of growth on offense, because the defense most

426
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 2: certainly I think fits that bill that that feisty one

427
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 2: side of the ball is pretty crazy. Or catch them

428
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: in the wrong week, you're gonna be sorry. Kind of

429
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 2: list of teams between you know, LSU, Oklahoma's defense, whatever,

430
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: It's going to be a dogfight these past these last

431
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 2: few weeks.

432
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 3: Let's go to point number three. This was Texas A

433
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 3: and M just murdering missus.

434
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 1: Just got man.

435
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Texas A and M's in that conversation, Oh, misses

436
00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 2: in that conversation, it's wild.

437
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: Continue earns out that my vision, the one that came

438
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: to me in my sleep.

439
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 2: I was going to do a remix of that part

440
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 2: of the show. I just ran out of time.

441
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: For people just tuning in. It came to me in

442
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 3: my sleep one night this past week that Miszoo was

443
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 3: going to win thirty four to thirty one.

444
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: So I picked him.

445
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 3: I threw a few shekels on thirty four to thirty one,

446
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 3: not enough to put me in the poorhouse, but just

447
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 3: in case, just in case, the universe was sending me signals,

448
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 3: I decided I didn't.

449
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: I didn't want to miss out on that opportunity.

450
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 2: Was it like a payote Wednesday? Did you take anything

451
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,160
Speaker 2: before bed that night? Was it nothing? Nothing?

452
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: Drank a lacroix, not a sponsor, could be you know what?

453
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 3: Okay, a little Lacroix. So guys, if you want to

454
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 3: make some money on college footballing something else. Yeah, avoid

455
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 3: the very specific bubbly and I won.

456
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: Forty one to ten.

457
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, this game was never close, and honestly, forty one

458
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 3: to ten, that score makes it sound closer.

459
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 5: Than it was.

460
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 2: Was it thirty one nothing at one point?

461
00:22:58,920 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: Yeah?

462
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 3: I mean A and M had over five hundred yards

463
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 3: of offense, twice as much as Miszoo. The biggest takeaway

464
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 3: for me was that if you watch this game, the

465
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:16,959
Speaker 3: A and M defensive line absolutely eight missoo alive. Miszoo

466
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 3: could not run at all. Frankly, they could barely block.

467
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 3: Brady Cook got sacked six times, generally had no time

468
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 3: to throw it all. There were moments when they'd show

469
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 3: a replay of Massoo's line, and I just kept thinking

470
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 3: to myself, oh my god, this looks like bad computer

471
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 3: AI in the video game. Guys just sort of looking around.

472
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 3: What are we supposed to do?

473
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 2: Three and a half fingers.

474
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. It was really bad.

475
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 3: When they were able to get something going, then they

476
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 3: were called back for a penalty. So this is one

477
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 3: of those games if you're a Miszoo fan you just

478
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 3: want to forget about it all together. This is a

479
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 3: really bad loss.

480
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 5: Though.

481
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 3: This is a really bad loss, not just because of

482
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 3: the off offensive stuff that we saw and how they

483
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: could not protect any of what they were trying to do,

484
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 3: but then on defense again, if you watch the game,

485
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 3: and Jordan Palmer was the analyst on the call here

486
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 3: in the booth, he was begging Massoo please, Rogers, Jeorde, Rogers,

487
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 3: excuse me, Bombers by the continue my bad another another

488
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: quarter a notable quarterback, brother commentator, coach continue. He was

489
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 3: practically begging Miszoo bring some pressure on, Connor Wigman, bring

490
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 3: some pressure. You had all day to throw. And then

491
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 3: they'd show replays and he's going through his progressions. You

492
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 3: could see his eyes. Dan one two, three, four.

493
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 2: Hmm, interesting, I think I'm gonna go here, Oh what's going.

494
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: On all day? To throw the ball? And by the way,

495
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: it was Connor Wigman. He was back. He looked good,

496
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: look very sharp for his first game back. Yeah, look sharp.

497
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 3: I thought Le'vian Moss, who's had some injury things as well.

498
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 3: I thought he looked really good.

499
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 1: A M did not just win.

500
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 3: Because Miszoo ran a weird scheme and didn't bring pressure

501
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 3: and there were penalties like all that stuff helped.

502
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: AM was clearly better in this game.

503
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 3: It's just I think when taking into totality the experience

504
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 3: of watching this game, it just felt.

505
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: So much worse for Maszoo than that final score would indicate.

506
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 2: Agree and the amount of pressure on the flip side

507
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 2: that Texas A and M was able to generate on

508
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 2: the Miszoo offense with four guys right, not even no

509
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 2: exotic blitzes or anything crazy like that. For most of

510
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 2: the game. They just completely smashed them and not anything

511
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 2: I saw coming. A very uncharacteristic Texas A and M win.

512
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 2: If you watched text A and M these past few years.

513
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 2: I have a bit of advice for any team or

514
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 2: you know, defensive coordinator watching this stream on the Spice channel.

515
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 2: Is that where we're broadcasting tonight as well? Yeah, it's

516
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 2: a pay per view your word channel. It's a deep

517
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 2: channel that you might be watching if you're going to

518
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 2: teach your team or instruct your team to arm tackle

519
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 2: Levy on Moss. Look at me right now, don't don't

520
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 2: do that. It's not gonna work out. He's very good

521
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 2: and texts A and M. By the way, that Missoo

522
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 2: win over Vanderbilt looks better and more impressive. That's something,

523
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: at least if you're a fan to hang your hat on.

524
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 2: But otherwise, I still don't know if we fully understand

525
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 2: what every win is or isn't. But this year's Miszoo

526
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 2: has been pretty disappointing in terms of, at least my

527
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 2: expectation coming into the season after last season. I know

528
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 2: you were not as high on Missoo as I was

529
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 2: going into the season, but I don't know all things

530
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 2: considered with who they have on offense and what they

531
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 2: brought back at least somewhat on defense, this was a

532
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 2: shell of my expectation of this team going against A

533
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 2: and M today, and man A and M is gonna

534
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 2: be They're gonna be.

535
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: A dirty out.

536
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: They are, they are. I mean, I don't know what

537
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 2: that means. I just made that phrasing up idea. I

538
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 2: can't explain it at all, but it feels right. It

539
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 2: does feel right, and it does.

540
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 3: This game kind of validates some of what I think

541
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 3: we were feeling coming into this one, which was we

542
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 3: didn't know which version of Miszoo we were going to get,

543
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 3: in part because we didn't know what to make of

544
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 3: some of those close games. You mentioned the Vandy game,

545
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 3: but also BC was closed for at least a half

546
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 3: and on the A and M side, we've both kind

547
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,120
Speaker 3: of picked up these notes of hey, they're getting better. Yeah,

548
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 3: it feels like the trajectory is going up into the

549
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,959
Speaker 3: right here and we don't know how soon they're going

550
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: to like explode and it ever explode this year. But

551
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 3: this is a big win. This is a big win.

552
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 3: And I thought it was very very telling about to

553
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 3: your point where Mike Elko has this team, because it

554
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 3: wasn't anything exotic, it wasn't anything overthought. It very much

555
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 3: was the underthink express right, the absolute brains in of Miszoo.

556
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 3: Here by thirty one points, so good on them a

557
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 3: nice win, and hopefully this is something that they can

558
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 3: build on.

559
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: I don't know where Miszoo goes from here. I just

560
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: it felt like so much was wrong in that game that,

561
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: you know, I don't even know how you unpack that.

562
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to road more on that. Who else

563
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 1: lost in the top what do you say?

564
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 2: Eleven?

565
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, we had.

566
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 3: Washington beating Michigan point four, twenty seven to seventeen, and

567
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 3: then point five. Here on my list is Minnesota knocking

568
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 3: off usc by a twenty four to seventeen score. So

569
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 3: two upsets in the Big Ten. Two of its top

570
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 3: eleven teams also go down, both of which were on

571
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 3: the road. Not a great week to be a road team. Also,

572
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 3: not a good week to play a team coming off

573
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 3: of bye. Also a lot of like points here that

574
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 3: we need to unpack over the course of the next

575
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 3: few days or so. How much of the Michigan game

576
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 3: did you watch?

577
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: A good deal of it?

578
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 2: I want to rewatch it, but I did watch a

579
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 2: good deal of it, certainly because of my interest in

580
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: West Coast football and being married into a Michigan situation.

581
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 2: It was a nice lovely cross section of my interests.

582
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 2: First of all, we maybe should not call it a

583
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 2: revenge spot. It's a revenge spot for fans, But when

584
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: you look at the Michigan offense, when you look at

585
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 2: the Washington rosters we're talking about, like the Mississippi State

586
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 2: quarterback handing off to the Arizona running back throwing to

587
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 2: a receiver who did not play in the National Championship game,

588
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 2: it was a very impressive performance from Washington. It was

589
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 2: a cleaner Washington than we've come to see this year

590
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 2: in terms of forcing turnovers, not making stupid mental errors,

591
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 2: leaning on what's working, and not abandoning things like that.

592
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 2: It was a good performance from a Washington team looking

593
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: for an identity. It was a complete performance. And yes,

594
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 2: Michigan made a change at quarterback. Yes, Michigan has been

595
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 2: a team that has struggled to throw the forward past

596
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 2: the season with various quarterbacks successfully consistently. Yes, it was

597
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 2: a road game, a couple of time zones away, of

598
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 2: which I think teams are one in seven now in

599
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 2: the Big Ten traveling at least two time zones away.

600
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 2: I think it was only Indiana who won that game

601
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 2: against UCLA. That's the lone winner thus far. Long travels

602
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 2: Washington should have won that game. Washington was favored to

603
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: win that game. Denzel Boston is emerging as a really

604
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 2: interesting receiver in this sport for the Huskies.

605
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: I don't know.

606
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: I made the point before the game that Michigan has

607
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: been a team that has you know, they won from

608
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 2: a couple of freak plays against USC and Minnesota, and

609
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 2: they were due to not get those bounces.

610
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: Every week, and they didn't. They didn't, they didn't.

611
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 3: And I think one other interesting point in this game,

612
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 3: and this is something I know you've brought up before,

613
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 3: the Michigan defense.

614
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: I think we are.

615
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 3: We were very quick to point out in the preseason

616
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 3: that well, regardless of what the offense looks like with

617
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 3: all its turnover, the Michigan defense is still going to

618
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 3: be in a very good place. Yeah, not to say

619
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 3: it's not a good defense, but your point has been

620
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 3: hasn't been quite as good as expected. It's a different year,

621
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 3: it's a different defense, it's run by a different guy.

622
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 3: There are different pieces like, yes, Josiah Stewart is there,

623
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 3: Will Johnson went healthy?

624
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 6: Is there?

625
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 2: Mason Graham, Kenneth Grant, like there are guys who are

626
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 2: going to be incredible hot, incredibly high draft picks in

627
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 2: the NFL that have been incredibly successful Big ten College

628
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 2: football playoff defenders. Doesn't mean as a whole they're the

629
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: same thing, and.

630
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 3: They aren't the same thing. Because Will Rogers threw for

631
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 3: two seventy one and two scores, they rush for over

632
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 3: one hundred and ten yards. I think it was one

633
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 3: hundred and fourteen yards and a touchdown. As a team,

634
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 3: they were able to move the football pretty effectively in

635
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 3: this game, especially through the year with Will Rogers. So

636
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 3: you know, this is just not the same Mischiga team.

637
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 3: And sometimes you have this after you win a title

638
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 3: and after there's turnover, whether it's personnel or staff or otherwise,

639
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 3: and this is just sort of nature of the Beast.

640
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 3: Michigan probably was not the number ten team in the country,

641
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 3: even though they were graded there by.

642
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: Voters.

643
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 3: I don't think you or I were under any illusions

644
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 3: that they should be ranked that highly. It was just

645
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 3: a matter of time until we saw a game like this, right,

646
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 3: and I thought they would win. I thought they would

647
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 3: be able to rush the football, that they would be

648
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 3: able to play the same game plan that they've been

649
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 3: playing all year, and that they would emerge victorious here

650
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 3: by a nose, and in reality that wasn't enough.

651
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: In reality, this is.

652
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 3: A Washington team that if you're going to beat him,

653
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 3: you need to have a little bit more balance. And

654
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 3: even though Michigan made the bar or you need to

655
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 3: have Kyle Mananai or you need to have Kamanangu. Yeah,

656
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 3: but for John mattiir John Matier from Wazoo. But even

657
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 3: though Michigan tried going to Jack Tuttle, we saw another

658
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 3: quarterback in this game. They still have this issue with

659
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 3: really getting much down the field in the passing game.

660
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 3: M ten of eighteen ninety eight yards a touchdown in

661
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 3: that late pick. So it's just there's no explosion that

662
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 3: teams need to worry about, and that makes it easier

663
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 3: to stop the offense as a whole if you are

664
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 3: a better team with you know, more resources on defense.

665
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is another conversation we had about Michigan. Again,

666
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 2: not the story here Washington is the story a nice

667
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 2: bounce back when after you know, a tough two or

668
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 2: three weeks. Here the story is the fact that if

669
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 2: Michigan wanted to have a downfield passing game, they would

670
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 2: have developed not just a quarterback but an offensive line

671
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 2: and rotational guys to step in, because it's certainly hard

672
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 2: to find those guys in the portal, and their receiver

673
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 2: development has been pretty underwhelming. They've lost a couple of

674
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 2: interesting guys to the portal, But really it's just that

675
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 2: room is not stocked with players who can change games

676
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 2: in the way that a lot of the teams on

677
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 2: their schedule have those guys. And so Michigan is not

678
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 2: built to be a dynamic offense this year. And we've

679
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 2: all rooted for teams like this, it's just not Michigan's

680
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 2: ear to do it. Then there's the USC game. Yeah, man,

681
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 2: Minnesota one is from twenty four to seventeen. Maybe a

682
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 2: little bit of controversy, I guess depends on your point

683
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 2: of view. I don't know. Yeah, it's literally your literal

684
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 2: point of view in watching PJ Fleck call a fourth

685
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 2: and goal play that was ruled not a stop on

686
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 2: the field and then overturned to be a touchdown. But

687
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 2: that's a play continue.

688
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 3: Overturn to be a touchdown, So PJ could have kicked

689
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 3: the field goal.

690
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 2: Yes, about fifty some odd seconds left.

691
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 3: About a minute in the moment, yeah, give or take

692
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 3: and it was fourth and goal. It would have been

693
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 3: a chip shot field goal such that the wind wouldn't

694
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 3: even have played much a factor.

695
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: Now, let's be honest.

696
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 3: But he decides that he wants to go for the touchdown,

697
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 3: which I thought was a bold move. I was standing

698
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 3: up and Yep did the surrender Cobra, trying to figure

699
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 3: out why is he doing this because this hopefully this

700
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 3: won't come back to fight him.

701
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 2: And had been played played USC's offense well, the Minnesota

702
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,280
Speaker 2: made him real well. Has been playing had played USC

703
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 2: really well to that point.

704
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, played played him extremely well. He decides to go

705
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: for it.

706
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 3: They do sort of the tush push thing, the quarterback

707
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 3: sneak Max Brosber on the field is ruled short. But

708
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 3: then they go to replay and our friend Yogi Roth

709
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 3: was on the call and talking it through, and it

710
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 3: was clear that Max Brosberg's helmet is torso seemingly the

711
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 3: football made it across the goal line. The interesting part,

712
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 3: justin do you want to be technical about it, is

713
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 3: they aren't supposed to overturn anything unless there is very obvious.

714
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:47,240
Speaker 2: Or visual evidence.

715
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, to conclusive video.

716
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 2: The toe did drag before you know, like there's like

717
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 2: we have this zoom on like this moment, like, oh,

718
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,240
Speaker 2: it was the ground that caused the fumble.

719
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: We now see that based on this slow motion.

720
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 3: Yes, when they can pull up the NBC it in

721
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 3: a little magnifying glass and show you that type of thing,

722
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 3: like you need to have conclusive video evidence. I don't

723
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 3: think we really had that. I thought it was a touchdown.

724
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 3: You felt like it was a bad call.

725
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 2: I just I'm trying to understand the rule here, right,

726
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 2: Like it had touchdown vibes to me as I watched

727
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 2: the player, You're like, that seems like a touchdown. But

728
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 2: if it's not called a touchdown on the field, then

729
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 2: let's see some clarity to it, right, And I understand that,

730
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 2: Like you just couldn't see the ball, So what are

731
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 2: we doing with this rule?

732
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 5: Then?

733
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 2: Like what there are going to be plays where you

734
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 2: can't tell though obviously something either happens or doesn't. And

735
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 2: so as I watched this play, I saw Max Brosmer

736
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 2: seem to summit the mountain that was the goal line.

737
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 2: He crossed the plane to my eyes while holding the ball.

738
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 2: Now the ball kind of squirted out and it was unclear,

739
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,919
Speaker 2: but like none of that was clear on replay either,

740
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 2: so I don't I might quite is just like if

741
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 2: you're not going to call it a touchdown on the

742
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 2: field and you're going to take your time to review

743
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 2: it and look for something clear that the ball crossed

744
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 2: the plane in the replays that were shown on TV anyway,

745
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 2: and there was no like infrared imaging to show the

746
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 2: ball in the middle of a bunch of bodies crossing

747
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 2: the plane. That's the next frontier tie. People talk about lasers,

748
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 2: infrared imaging. I want to see the ball through like

749
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 2: a heat map of livers and spleens. I want to

750
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 2: see that tie. This is going down a weird place.

751
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 2: You couldn't see it. To me, you couldn't see the

752
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 2: ball cross the plane. And so if that if we

753
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 2: need clear evidence, we didn't get it. Well again, touchdown

754
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 2: vibes to me. You show me that video as like

755
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 2: a guy on a couch. I'm like, that seems like

756
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 2: a touchdown to me. What are we doing with rules

757
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 2: if we're not going to stick to them?

758
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 3: Put the chip in the ball? I need I need

759
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 3: the chip, You need a chip, lasers or whatever. We

760
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 3: need to figure out a way to do this. Maybe

761
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 3: that could be the next frontier. Yeah, Max Brosberth three

762
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 3: rushing touchdowns here, none bigger of course than that last one.

763
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,839
Speaker 3: And I thought Minnesota did a good job forcing turnovers

764
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,839
Speaker 3: and in their own right, keeping this USC offense down.

765
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 3: More to the point, yeah, big ten teams traveling two

766
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 3: or more time zones have not fared very well thus

767
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 3: far this season. We will see what happens next week

768
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 3: as Penn State travels to USC, as Ohio State travels

769
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 3: to Oregon. There are some more situations like this that

770
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 3: we're going to see unfold throughout the course of the year.

771
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 3: But this is just another example of one of those

772
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 3: games that we called out. Frankly, it's been really tough

773
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 3: to travel that far, especially into a raucous home night environment,

774
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 3: and expect to come away with the victory and Minnesota.

775
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 1: Minnesota got the job done.

776
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 3: So after PJ Fleck and Minnesota on the whole urge

777
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 3: fans not to give up on the team, they certainly

778
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 3: reward that loyalty by knocking off the number eleven team

779
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 3: in the country twenty four to seventeen.

780
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 2: Very strong, especially the way that Michigan game ended for

781
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 2: Minnesota with the phantom offside on the on side kick, like,

782
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 2: I understand the frustrations. If you're a Minnesota fan and

783
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 2: feeling gleeful after this one, you should. That was a

784
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 2: really impressive win from Minnesota, especially with what they were

785
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 2: able to do in bottling up and keeping USC's defense.

786
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 2: Excuse me, USC's offense in front of it. And if

787
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 2: you're a USC fan, I feel for you. But if

788
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 2: you need a play at the end of a game

789
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 2: and you give away what you did during the game,

790
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 2: looking as a rhythmic as USC's offense looked at times

791
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 2: in this game, you didn't necessarily earn a win. And

792
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 2: when you had a minute to drive the field and

793
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 2: you couldn't do it successfully with whatever fourth fifth year

794
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,320
Speaker 2: quarterback and all these you know, I think pretty tremendous receivers,

795
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 2: You had a shot, you had a bunch of drives

796
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 2: to get it done, and you didn't. And so I

797
00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not gonna like cry a ton of

798
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 2: he is for USC in this one, even if I

799
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 2: disagree with the way the refs handled that that specific scenario.

800
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 3: Point number six, as we come on the air this

801
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 3: evening talking about Week six is let's stay with the

802
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 3: big ten for a second. Oh baby, the Big Ten's

803
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: in an interesting place right now because as I look back,

804
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 3: I feel like I have more questions and answers. So

805
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 3: we just talked about the two upsets, right Michigan USC

806
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 3: were highly ranked.

807
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 1: Both go down.

808
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:34,800
Speaker 3: Yes, Ohio State truly the only team that separated against

809
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,879
Speaker 3: a good opponent. I guess you can debate Oregon whoa whoa?

810
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:39,280
Speaker 3: You can debate ohoh Oregon.

811
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no, Tie.

812
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 2: Let's let's take a knee real quick. I'm going to

813
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 2: give you the option right now, Indiana or the field.

814
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 3: Ah okay, I'm just no manas struggled for a while

815
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 3: with Northwestern, you know, the double digs win on the.

816
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 2: Lake tie beautiful day by the way, in the north

817
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 2: shore of Chicago.

818
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 3: They struggled. Ohio State pulled away late. They eventually ended

819
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 3: up winning this game thirty five to seven. They win

820
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,839
Speaker 3: going away against Iowa. That was a nice win for them.

821
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 3: The Oregon game on my second half, nice second half.

822
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 3: The game on Friday night left a little to be

823
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 3: desired on the part of Dylan game throws.

824
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 2: Two throws, So there was that too, horrible, horrible, just

825
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 2: daggering throws.

826
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: The Penn State game was frustrating at best.

827
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 3: Huh, twenty seven to eleven, they knock off you or

828
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 3: UCLA excuse me, but no.

829
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 2: Nick Singleton.

830
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: Nick Singleton was out, he was out there, he was dressed.

831
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 1: He did not play. Okay, he'll be fine. I'm not

832
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:47,800
Speaker 1: worried about that situation.

833
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 3: The Nebraska game was fourteen to seven. We expected a

834
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 3: rock fight there. They end up beating Rutgers. I guess

835
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 3: it depends on when you got the line as to

836
00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 3: whether or not he's.

837
00:41:58,680 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 5: Going to it.

838
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 2: Good teams win, great teams win by seven at six

839
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:04,439
Speaker 2: and a half.

840
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, so there's that you mentioned the Indiana game they

841
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 3: did win by seventeen.

842
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, on the road against Northwestern.

843
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 3: And then there's the Wisconsin Purdue thing, which I mean

844
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 3: Perdue is just in a really bad place right now.

845
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 3: They lose by a fifty two to six score. I

846
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 3: guess the broader point here, the broader question is what

847
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 3: does the totem pole look like now in the Big ten?

848
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 3: Is it truly Ohio State, Oregon and then Penn State

849
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 3: and Indiana?

850
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: Like where?

851
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 3: How would you rank these teams as you think about this,

852
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 3: because I'm looking at it right now, I'm looking at

853
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 3: the whole of college football, and Ohio State might be

854
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 3: one of the only teams I feel like we can trust.

855
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 2: Ohio State is the most trustworthy right now. And I

856
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 2: came away impressed with their second half strategy of like, well,

857
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 2: we're not really consistently doing much on offense, and when

858
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 2: we do we kind of mess up at the end

859
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 2: of a drive. What if we just kind of threw

860
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 2: it down veiled Jeremiah Smith like that, what if we

861
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 2: just one hand, two hands, it doesn't matter. And so

862
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 2: that that was a nice little strategy by Chip Kelly

863
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:13,280
Speaker 2: and Ohio State. And as the third quarter unfolded against Iowa,

864
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 2: they overwhelmed Iowa and the Iowa offensive line and Cade McNamara,

865
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 2: and they look like a championship team. As far as

866
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 2: trust at the top of the conference, I'll put Ohio

867
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 2: State in Oregon alone in this moment. Oregon has not

868
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 2: given up a non garbage offensive touchdown in a few weeks.

869
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 2: Their defense and especially the defensive line, is looking quite strong.

870
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 2: They're taking care of business against weaker opponents like Oregon State.

871
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 2: UCLA and Michigan State looked pretty similar against Michigan State

872
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 2: as Ohio State did. I'm sort of waiting see with

873
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:43,479
Speaker 2: Penn State.

874
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: I don't know.

875
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 2: Recent performances make me think Penn State has a very

876
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 2: good defense and an offense that, you know, drive to drive,

877
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 2: quarter to quarter can be variable. Indiana just got to

878
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 2: see him against a power team. Just got to see

879
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 2: him against you know, we need a measuring stick game

880
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 2: for Indiana. I don't know when that happens. I suspect

881
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 2: it's happening relatively soon. I don't know if it's this

882
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 2: coming week or the week after. So does Indiana have

883
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 2: coming up?

884
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:12,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, Indiana's got Nebraska next, Okay, on by this coming week.

885
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 3: So they're coming out out of a bye, going to Nebraska,

886
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 3: and this is when it really starts to get interesting

887
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 3: for them. So Indiana six and oher congratulations to the

888
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 3: Whoho eligible.

889
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, bull eligible.

890
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 3: But Nebraska, Washington at Michigan State, Michigan, Ohio State, and

891
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 3: Purdue their final six games of the year.

892
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 2: Body if they are somewhat in the vicinity of what

893
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 2: they've shown themselves to be ten Indiana, they're not built. Okay,

894
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 2: we're getting ahead of ourselves in India. I think it's

895
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 2: okay to put yourself out there and allow yourself to

896
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:56,399
Speaker 2: be hurt right dance like nobody's watching, et cetera. They're

897
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 2: not built, they don't have the depth. Like in my mind,

898
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 2: I think about it win team a certain way, and

899
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 2: I think Indiana, depending on how they recruit. I know

900
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,319
Speaker 2: they're in it for like a five star quarterback right now,

901
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: a potential flip. Yeah, if they continue to play at

902
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 2: this level. But there's a reason why we say depth, depth, depth, depth, depth,

903
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,400
Speaker 2: right that when a left guard goes down, when an

904
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:19,840
Speaker 2: outside linebacker goes down, when a safety goes down in

905
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:21,839
Speaker 2: week nine, week ten, and you don't look the same

906
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 2: because you haven't built up your roster over two three years,

907
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 2: your team's just gonna look different. I'm not taking gonna

908
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 2: lose to Michigan State or Michigan.

909
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 1: I think Nebraska's gonna be a problem for them. Where's

910
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: that game, Lincoln game? The games in Bloomington, Oh okay.

911
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 3: I think that game is gonna be a problem for

912
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 3: him though, because Nebraska is going to give them a

913
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 3: taste of black defense they have not seen. And frankly,

914
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 3: some of the other schools that they've got coming up

915
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 3: here Michigan, even Michigan State has played well on defense.

916
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 3: Ohio State goes without saying they're going to get a

917
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 3: chance at some actual defenses here. I agree over the

918
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 3: next couple of weeks, and I think their own defense

919
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 3: will be tested in a way that you know. I mean,

920
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 3: we've seen team too though right now. Of those teams,

921
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 3: the non Ohio State teams, Washington, who will t their defense,

922
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 3: I think Nebraska can test their defense.

923
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 2: What is Nebraska done offensively these past couple of weeks.

924
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,360
Speaker 3: I think they're at least a team that's got some

925
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 3: balance to them. This is not to say they're going

926
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:20,840
Speaker 3: to go out there and put up fifty, but they

927
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 3: can run the ball.

928
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 1: We know they can throw the ball at Dylan Royola.

929
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 2: By the yards per attempt against Rutgers today.

930
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:26,439
Speaker 5: I think.

931
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:30,839
Speaker 3: I think Washington has a pretty good offense. I think

932
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 3: we saw that three against Michigan, and so I look,

933
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 3: they're going to have an opportunity here to prove their

934
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 3: medal before long. There is a trust question though about

935
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,400
Speaker 3: them that I think is is something we're going to

936
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 3: need to monitor for the rein of the season.

937
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, what else do you have in the

938
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 2: Big Ten for me?

939
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 1: Anything? Yeah? I mean the other thing that just jumped

940
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: out to me in the Big Ten.

941
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,760
Speaker 3: Not to make this about Purdue, but the Purdue situation

942
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 3: is pretty bad right now.

943
00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 2: It's blake. Things are Blake and West leaf yeat.

944
00:46:59,200 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 1: It's really blake.

945
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 3: They lost fifty two to six again to Wisconsin Braydon

946
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 3: Locke at something like three hundred and seventy yards passing

947
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 3: for the Badgers. I don't have the exact number, but

948
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,399
Speaker 3: a week after getting rid of their offensive coordinator Graham

949
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 3: Harrell to put up six points against Wisconsin team that

950
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 3: frankly is gettable.

951
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 1: That's not a great showing.

952
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 2: No produce the cure for the common Big Ten team.

953
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 3: At this moment, We've got Oregon versus Ohio State. Next

954
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 3: week we've got Penncate versus USC. We'll talk more about

955
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 3: that on the Thursday previews show. By the way, next

956
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:38,439
Speaker 3: week looks ridiculous in terms of high level matchups. Don't

957
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 3: know if we'll see this level of upsets, but you

958
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 3: will see some heavy hitters playing against one another. Point

959
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 3: number seven is something I'm calling the acc blender.

960
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 2: Who's gonna say this? Next segment of the show is

961
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 2: brought to you by Eli Holstein. Colin Eli Holstein, your

962
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,640
Speaker 2: struggling offense, maybe could have had him.

963
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 3: Eli Holstein transfers to Pitt from Alabama.

964
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: This is a new look Pit offense.

965
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 3: Pitt is undefeated Pit one in Chapel Hill for the

966
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 3: first time after seven previous losses. They are five and

967
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 3: zero for the first time since ninety one. He is

968
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 3: the first pit quarterback since Dan Marino to win his

969
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,600
Speaker 3: first five starts. He looked really good. He was their

970
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 3: leading rusher, obviously their leading passer. Ended up throwing for

971
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 3: something like three eighty one.

972
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 1: Pitt looks good. They look good.

973
00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 3: They struggled for a while with North Carolina. This was

974
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 3: a back and forth game. They eventually pull it out late.

975
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:41,720
Speaker 3: Thirty four to twenty four was the final. I feel

976
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 3: better about Pitt than I do Indiana. I feel similarly,

977
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 3: though in terms of that trust factor. I'd like to

978
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,520
Speaker 3: see them play against a better defense. I'd like to

979
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 3: see them play against a better offense. I suspect before

980
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 3: long we'll have an opportunity to see that. But at

981
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:03,879
Speaker 3: time recording, I'm looking at teams like Pitt. I'm looking

982
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 3: at teams like my SMU Mustangs, who suddenly are back

983
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 3: from the dead. Yeah, we wrote them off I wrote

984
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,759
Speaker 3: them off for completely redeem yourself pareematurely after that game

985
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,919
Speaker 3: against BYU eighteen to fifty and whatever.

986
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 5: It was.

987
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,279
Speaker 3: It a horrible game, but SMU goes to Louisville and

988
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,800
Speaker 3: wins by a thirty four to twenty seven score.

989
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:30,399
Speaker 2: It's the inverse Big Ten, right, It's all these Big

990
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 2: ten teams who can't travel in the acc They're well rested.

991
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 2: They're all TSA pre check. They're very good at folding,

992
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 2: they pack sensible snacks, they've got the neck pillow. We're

993
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:46,359
Speaker 2: talking about expert travelers in the ACCY. You know, they're

994
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 2: wearing loafers, so they're not fumbling with their shoes at

995
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:51,600
Speaker 2: TSA ty. They just have it as a science. They're

996
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 2: George clooneying up in the air.

997
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 3: They were very very good on the road this week,

998
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 3: to say the least. Yes, SMU, I think was a

999
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 3: good example of that. Kevin Jennings had a really good game.

1000
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 3: Kevin Jennings is like Thomas Castillanos, but with thirty percent

1001
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 3: more calories. Okay, he's a better version of Thomas Castillanos.

1002
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, he's the uh the Expanded Edition DVD exactly.

1003
00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:21,680
Speaker 1: So SMU wins.

1004
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 3: Clemson looked really good on the road against Florida State.

1005
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:28,279
Speaker 3: They end up covering that point spread. I think the

1006
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:32,120
Speaker 3: conference as a whole is incredibly interesting. It's not quite

1007
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 3: as interesting to me as the Big Twelve. But we

1008
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 3: are now entering into a phase where, especially if Miami

1009
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 3: ends up losing.

1010
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: To Cal which right now score at the time of recording,

1011
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,879
Speaker 1: they're losing twenty eight to ten midway through the third quarter.

1012
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 2: Happened. Especially they didn't pack the snacks, they didn't pack

1013
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 2: the cashews.

1014
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,800
Speaker 3: Especially if Miami ends up going down. This whole conference

1015
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 3: is even more of a hash than it is right now.

1016
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,320
Speaker 2: Pitt of the field say it, gut reaction, pit of

1017
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:04,840
Speaker 2: the field, the field, I will, I will take the field. Okay,

1018
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,080
Speaker 2: you're rooting for Pitt. That's new from you. Why not

1019
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 2: Penn State or Okay, they don't play.

1020
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: Each other, I know they should. Cowards.

1021
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,919
Speaker 3: Uh, Georgia Tech one, they knocked off Duke, gave Duke

1022
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 3: their first loss. Uva beat Boston College. Nice, yeah, nice

1023
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 3: little bit. Virginia Tech we got.

1024
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:23,359
Speaker 5: We got.

1025
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,240
Speaker 3: The very first reaver of this week was someone dunking

1026
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:27,800
Speaker 3: on us for picking Stanford.

1027
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:28,320
Speaker 4: No.

1028
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 2: Ashton Daniels in our defense. He was day to day

1029
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 2: lower body something.

1030
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: After this. At the Clemson game, excuse me, I thought

1031
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,319
Speaker 1: they look pretty good. Thirty one seven, they were game.

1032
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,760
Speaker 3: They never close, and uh, Wake beat n CY State.

1033
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 3: Really scary moment for Grace mcconofe's I saw that the

1034
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:45,359
Speaker 3: brutal hit. They had to stretcher him off. I hope

1035
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 3: he's okay. But Wake gives Ncctate another loss, which has

1036
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:55,800
Speaker 3: turned into one of the sort of shrug moments so

1037
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 3: far of this season. With what we see dot NC State,

1038
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,279
Speaker 3: Can we go back to Pitt for a minute if

1039
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:03,959
Speaker 3: you wish, of course, I wish.

1040
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 2: Pitt finished last year with the one hundred and twenty

1041
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 2: fourth most efficient scoring offense in America points per drive.

1042
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 2: They were at number fifteen nationally. I'm not going to

1043
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,279
Speaker 2: hear too. I'm not here to recite statistics further. Eli

1044
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 2: Holstein's really fun. I don't know how great he is.

1045
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 2: He's a little bit reckless in a way that I

1046
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 2: kind of treasure. But des Reid is quite fun. The

1047
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 2: defense got some stops and harassed the North Carolina offense.

1048
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 2: I feel bad for North Carolina in this moment, but

1049
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 2: Pitt is a nice example, and I joke about like

1050
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:35,480
Speaker 2: you could have had Eli Holstein. I don't know what

1051
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:40,120
Speaker 2: Eli Holstein's transfer recruitment was like. But those pit receivers. Again,

1052
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:46,200
Speaker 2: North Carolina's defense running wide open time wide open. In

1053
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 2: this game, there were plays where two receivers could have

1054
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 2: come down with the ball. I don't know, Pit is

1055
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:54,839
Speaker 2: just it's what did we say. We made jokes about

1056
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 2: this earlier in the week about Oklahoma State, the what

1057
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 2: did I like the third law of Gundy motion or

1058
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,480
Speaker 2: something like that. As soon as soon as you think

1059
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,680
Speaker 2: Pitt is toast, as soon as you think Pitt is cooked,

1060
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 2: they randomly go nine to three. As soon as you

1061
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:10,879
Speaker 2: think Pitt, oh, pretty decent, They'll bringing up a bunch

1062
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 2: of guys on defense. They hire a crazy offensive coordinator,

1063
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 2: probably with the last the wrong signetti and look like

1064
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 2: trash and Pat Nardozy is endlessly entertaining to me. But

1065
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 2: as you know, as soon as you think one thing,

1066
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 2: they're the other thing.

1067
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 1: And they might be the.

1068
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 2: Most college football college football team this year.

1069
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, by the way, let me just pay homage to

1070
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 3: my sweet sweet SMU Mustangs. Oh, as of course you should,

1071
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 3: because they have put this scene together. They look good

1072
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 3: in this game against louis This was a good game

1073
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,799
Speaker 3: to watch. It was probably not a fun ending if

1074
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 3: you were a Louisville fan. But I commend them on

1075
00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 3: keeping this thing together, on finding a way to make

1076
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 3: the quarterback change midstream, finding a way to build some

1077
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 3: momentum back up now as they head into ACC play again,

1078
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,319
Speaker 3: with the state of this conference, and by the way,

1079
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 3: Miami just gave up another touchdown and is now down

1080
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 3: thirty five to ten midway through the third quarter. Oh K,

1081
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:21,640
Speaker 3: with this being the state of play in the ACC, Yeah,

1082
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,759
Speaker 3: anything is possible. I'm not saying SMU or Pitt or

1083
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,960
Speaker 3: any of these teams Louisville, it doesn't matter. I'm not

1084
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:28,840
Speaker 3: saying any of them are going to win the conference.

1085
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying it's out there now as a

1086
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 3: result of losses like we have seen all throughout the

1087
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 3: course of today and SMU with their momentum, momentum is

1088
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,800
Speaker 3: now currency in college football. I would rather have that

1089
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 3: than not to go on the road to beat Louisville

1090
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:46,640
Speaker 3: in the manner that they did to put up thirty

1091
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 3: four points I thought was damn impressive. I give them

1092
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 3: a lot of credit for this, for putting it back together.

1093
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 3: I think I'm back on the bandwagon.

1094
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 2: You're back on it PSMU.

1095
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 1: Why not? You only live once?

1096
00:54:57,680 --> 00:54:57,839
Speaker 5: Right?

1097
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,840
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't I Look, we looked at their schedule with

1098
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 2: all sorts of assumptions in August about Wow, Flora State,

1099
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:06,960
Speaker 2: it's going to be a tough out even though it's

1100
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 2: in in Dallas at SMU. I don't know what the

1101
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 2: rest of their schedule looks like. I don't have it

1102
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 2: memorized in front of me.

1103
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 3: Is go on at Stanford at Duke Home versus Pitt

1104
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:21,879
Speaker 3: Home versus Boston College, at UVA Home versus Col.

1105
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 2: I mean, those Pitt and col games are huge, say

1106
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,840
Speaker 2: Kevin Jennings and Eli Holstein for the acc supremacy. Do

1107
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 2: you think that if Miami loses, and obviously by the

1108
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,439
Speaker 2: time people are listening to the podcast version of the show,

1109
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,040
Speaker 2: they will know if Miami came back and won after

1110
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:41,880
Speaker 2: being down twenty five, how much time is left in

1111
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 2: this game as we're.

1112
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: Speaking, it's like a quarter and a half still to go.

1113
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,040
Speaker 2: Okay, so we're in the middle of the third quarter.

1114
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 2: So let's say Miami goes down down twenty five, right now,

1115
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 2: do you think there's a chance that Miami players run

1116
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,719
Speaker 2: into Virginia Tech players in SFO both having played in

1117
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 2: the Bay Area and awkwardly say like, wow, that game

1118
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,880
Speaker 2: was weird last week, right, you guys do, and just like, oh,

1119
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 2: there's no problem traveling. Like Stanford didn't put up much.

1120
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:05,839
Speaker 2: I assume Cal, you guys are able to and there's

1121
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:07,799
Speaker 2: so much more talented and like Cal's got the fun

1122
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 2: meme thing and they had game, but you guys took

1123
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 2: care of Cal. Right, we all, like you can't even

1124
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,319
Speaker 2: use the like travel across the country. Even though Cal

1125
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 2: looks to be clearly better than Stanford. You're scoring ten

1126
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:21,720
Speaker 2: points against Cal through you know, two and a half quarters.

1127
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 1: Mario looked very perturbed on the side. What did I

1128
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:24,440
Speaker 1: tell you?

1129
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 2: What did I tell you about Mario christaball in that stadium? Ty,

1130
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,239
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you you could go on and I'm

1131
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,239
Speaker 2: not going to put you on this spot. But like

1132
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 2: if a current husband or boyfriend came to you and

1133
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:40,399
Speaker 2: be like, tell me about this person you dated way

1134
00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 2: back when, like a little like do you have any

1135
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:43,680
Speaker 2: do you have any notes, You'd be like, oh, I've

1136
00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 2: got notes. Oregon people still to this day feel that

1137
00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 2: about Mario. Oh We've got notes, and one of them

1138
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 2: is don't trust him in Berkeley. Trust in Berkeley or

1139
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 2: in the Bay Area. They lost to Stanford when Stanford

1140
00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,560
Speaker 2: went three and nine. Remember that Joe Morehead was out sick.

1141
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 2: Continue point number eight is the Big Twelve also headed

1142
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 2: towards a wow buth that I have. I love the

1143
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:06,399
Speaker 2: Big Twelve.

1144
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 1: This is figuring to be.

1145
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:10,879
Speaker 3: This is figuring to be one of the craziest years

1146
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 3: in college football. Yeah, WA had Iowa State pulling away

1147
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 3: from Baylor good and winning that.

1148
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 1: One, going over ty forty three to twenty one. They

1149
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: put up five hundred and forty two yards.

1150
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 3: Good by u K State Utah All, I believe we're

1151
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 3: on by this week, West Virginia drilled Oklahoma State.

1152
00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 2: It was a complete performance.

1153
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1154
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:36,439
Speaker 1: They ran for three hundred and eighty nine yards.

1155
00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 3: They had thirty one first downs, which has to be

1156
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:41,360
Speaker 3: more than some teams have all year.

1157
00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:44,440
Speaker 2: Probably let's look at like the UMass numbers.

1158
00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it has to be more than some teams have

1159
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: all year.

1160
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 3: W West Virginia absolutely annihilated Oklahoma State. Oklahoma State is

1161
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 3: in a very weird place. They ended up pulling Alan Bowman.

1162
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 3: They want to get wrangle. I saw fans turning on

1163
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,360
Speaker 3: each other when I was going out there on Twitter

1164
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 3: to see what the Oklahoma State contigent had to say.

1165
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:09,800
Speaker 3: Suffice to say, our optimism about Oklahoma State with what

1166
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 3: they had returning and for a lot of the optimism

1167
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 3: that you know, I think had been reported by people

1168
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 3: who are much closer to the team. It's definitely taken

1169
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 3: a weird turn at this point. So they are probably

1170
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,640
Speaker 3: not going to be in the hunt for the Big twelve.

1171
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,600
Speaker 3: They may be in the running, as they always are

1172
00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 3: to knock off some teams that are. But West Virginia

1173
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:36,560
Speaker 3: certainly now in an interesting spot this conference. I think

1174
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,440
Speaker 3: as we get a little bit deeper into this thing,

1175
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 3: it's going to be in a crazy spot.

1176
00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 1: Colorado didn't play either, by the way.

1177
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,640
Speaker 2: The team that we should throw out there as we speak,

1178
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 2: Texas Tech up on Arizona eighteen to three.

1179
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 1: Eighteen to three.

1180
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:54,919
Speaker 2: Texas started the second half. Yeah, Texas Tech, so worst

1181
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:57,400
Speaker 2: four and one team in college football history.

1182
00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,640
Speaker 3: Say what you want about Texas Tech, but undefeated in

1183
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 3: friends definitely has the offense, not modern running events, but no, no,

1184
00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 3: they're there tonight they do. UCF was exposed to some

1185
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 3: extent by Florida in their game. We can talk more

1186
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:12,720
Speaker 3: about that one on Tuesday. So just a lot of

1187
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 3: like general weirdness, I would say, would like to talk

1188
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,440
Speaker 3: more about the Big Twelve. We can do that perhaps

1189
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 3: on the next episode. There were, frankly a lot of

1190
00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 3: teams that were off, so we'll get to that. I

1191
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:24,840
Speaker 3: think maybe we'll play a little bit of a game

1192
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 3: and talk about all things Big Twelve on Tuesday.

1193
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 2: Here's here's the good thing about the Big Twelve. Okay,

1194
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 2: Kansas definitely lackluster in this moment right not living up

1195
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 2: to expectations. I had to higher expectations of Kansas. Who

1196
00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 2: knows what the actual issues are. We need to deep

1197
00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 2: dive it a little bit further. Oklahoma State is falling

1198
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 2: off a cliff. Have not won a game in the

1199
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:48,360
Speaker 2: Big Twelve. Iowa State, Colorado, I would say, in this

1200
00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:51,200
Speaker 2: moment with Arizona looking down, maybe the best of Kansas

1201
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:53,920
Speaker 2: State BYU if winning is a skill like we like

1202
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:57,440
Speaker 2: to talk about, they're skillful BYU is pulling out games.

1203
00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 2: Does Iowa State play Colorado? Do you have that at

1204
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 2: your fingertips or in your memory.

1205
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll pull it up. We'll pull it up.

1206
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 2: They're super interesting to me, and I'm leaving out asu

1207
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 2: Arizona State was the team that beat Kansas. That was

1208
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 2: back and forth, kind of a wildcard to me. Love

1209
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 2: it or Levitt sam Levitt getting it done for the

1210
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 2: sun Devils.

1211
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, big Call's fun.

1212
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:21,560
Speaker 2: It's stupid, but it's fun.

1213
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 3: Iowa State's got a big road game next week at

1214
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 3: West Virginia.

1215
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:27,680
Speaker 1: Great.

1216
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:32,320
Speaker 3: They've also got UCF at home, Texas Tech at home

1217
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 3: at Kansas. They close out the year final three weeks

1218
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,920
Speaker 3: home against Cincinnati, on the road at Utah home against

1219
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 3: k State.

1220
01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: So it's backloaded.

1221
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:44,160
Speaker 3: But part of why I really like this team is

1222
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:46,360
Speaker 3: because it feels to me like they are complete.

1223
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 1: Who Iowa State? Iowa State.

1224
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:50,960
Speaker 3: Yes, I really liked Iowa State in the preseason. You

1225
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 3: recall I was super high on that when we did

1226
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 3: the preview.

1227
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:54,400
Speaker 1: And this is why.

1228
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 3: It's because I think Rock Goback is really good as

1229
01:00:57,560 --> 01:00:59,520
Speaker 3: a quarterback. It's because I think they can run the ball.

1230
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:02,640
Speaker 3: I think they're good out wide, I think they're solid defensively.

1231
01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 3: They had a lot back coming into the season, and

1232
01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:08,480
Speaker 3: again we didn't really know what to make of this

1233
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 3: schedule because we hadn't seen any of these teams back

1234
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:14,040
Speaker 3: in July when we previewed things. But as it is

1235
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 3: all shaping out, all these teams are flaws, all these

1236
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:19,680
Speaker 3: ten and this is what makes the Big twelve super interesting.

1237
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:22,400
Speaker 3: Every team has a fatal flaw. Maybe with the exception

1238
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 3: of Iowa State. That's part of why I like them UCF.

1239
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:29,400
Speaker 3: We saw it today. UCF couldn't get Florida off the field. Sure,

1240
01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:31,680
Speaker 3: if you ask some Clone fans, they have some notes,

1241
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:33,920
Speaker 3: I'm sure, but it feels like the other ones that

1242
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:37,000
Speaker 3: I'm looking at here, with Texas Tech, with Kansas, with Cincinnati,

1243
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:39,800
Speaker 3: certainly with Utah, maybe Kansas State.

1244
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,000
Speaker 1: There's discussion there. But there are just a lot of

1245
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 1: teams that are very flawed.

1246
01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:44,880
Speaker 2: Oh I think Kansas State house flaws.

1247
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 1: They all flaws.

1248
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, But I look at Iowa State and I say,

1249
01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 3: maybe they're the one that's the least flawed.

1250
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:51,040
Speaker 5: Wow.

1251
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:54,000
Speaker 1: At this point, what a world we live in. Who

1252
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:55,440
Speaker 1: to thunk it? Something to monitor?

1253
01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:58,040
Speaker 3: We will continue to talk about this. That's point eight

1254
01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:05,080
Speaker 3: point nine eleven. Let's get into Ashton gent.

1255
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 2: Because not a lot of defenses can Ashton.

1256
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:13,640
Speaker 3: Gent is one of these players at this point who

1257
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:15,760
Speaker 3: it would be a crime if he weren't invited to

1258
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 3: New York. Ashton Gent Boise State running back. The first

1259
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 3: play of the game was a sixty three yard touchdown

1260
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:26,080
Speaker 3: for him. He had another touchdown of seventy five yards today.

1261
01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 3: He ended up with a buck eighty six and three touchdowns.

1262
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:32,560
Speaker 3: He's averaging close to eleven per carry. He is currently

1263
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:36,280
Speaker 3: outpacing Barry Sanders record year in nineteen eighty eight. Barry

1264
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 3: Sanders had over twenty six hundred rushing yards in nineteen

1265
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:39,800
Speaker 3: eighty eight.

1266
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,880
Speaker 1: Was that the year where he beat up on somebody

1267
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,840
Speaker 1: in Japan? Beat up on someone in Japan? I have

1268
01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:46,240
Speaker 1: no idea.

1269
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,040
Speaker 2: There used to be a game every year in Japan,

1270
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 2: and I think he had like three hundred and twenty

1271
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 2: two yards, and except the Heisman in Tokyo via satellite.

1272
01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 3: He finished the season if you include the bowl game,

1273
01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:02,560
Speaker 3: with over twenty eight hundred yards, but the regular season, yeah,

1274
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 3: twenty six hundred. Nashton gent is on that kind of

1275
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:10,200
Speaker 3: pace right now. So there is a conversation to be

1276
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 3: had and we can kind of roll this in with

1277
01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 3: point number ten, which was basically on the whole some

1278
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:20,439
Speaker 3: other G five teams that are making hay. Both Army

1279
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,120
Speaker 3: and Navy are unbeaten. Liberty is also unbeaten. Those are

1280
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 3: the only three unbeaten G five teams at present, Because

1281
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 3: you UNLV lost on Friday night to Syracuse in overtime.

1282
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 3: The conversation that I want to have, though, if we

1283
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,840
Speaker 3: kind of meld these two together, is who do we

1284
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 3: put above whom? If Boise State goes the rest of

1285
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 3: its season without losing, having that one loss being against

1286
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 3: a pretty good team, potentially a Top five team, and

1287
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 3: we have teams like Army and Navy playing each other,

1288
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:54,920
Speaker 3: one of them emerges from their conference unbeaten. Presumably their

1289
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 3: only losses at that point outside of whoever wins the

1290
01:03:58,040 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 3: title game would be against Notre Dame.

1291
01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 1: If I want to assume that as a loss.

1292
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know, man, I've seen some Navy Notre

1293
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:04,840
Speaker 2: Dame mats.

1294
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 3: I think Liberty probably goes unbeaten at this point. I

1295
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:11,760
Speaker 3: don't see a whole lot of resistance in their path. Yeah,

1296
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:15,280
Speaker 3: we also still have teams like Tulane that are lingering

1297
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:16,040
Speaker 3: out there to win.

1298
01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:18,680
Speaker 1: I think is pretty good. Put up seventy one this

1299
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 1: week on you ab.

1300
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:23,320
Speaker 3: Yep, there is a question that I'm very curious to

1301
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 3: see what the committee has to say about this with

1302
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:29,200
Speaker 3: respect to Boise State and do you value them in

1303
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 3: their one loss and obviously the biggest star I would

1304
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 3: say in G five right now, Nash gent over what

1305
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:38,640
Speaker 3: we might see on the resume of some of these

1306
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:39,200
Speaker 3: other schools.

1307
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:44,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean does Notre Dame have both of the

1308
01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 2: service academies.

1309
01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 1: They have both Army and Navy.

1310
01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:50,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so we'll have common opponent there, which Notre Dame

1311
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:53,160
Speaker 2: should probably go through this season at this point as

1312
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,479
Speaker 2: a top twenty ish team the very least.

1313
01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean, they're going to be a playoff team at

1314
01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 1: this point.

1315
01:04:57,800 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 2: What are they ranked right now with these losses I

1316
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:00,640
Speaker 2: had of them, I.

1317
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 3: Think they were something like fourteenth in the coaching pole

1318
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 3: or the ap pole, So they're well within striking differsons.

1319
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 3: And if we keep having weeks like this, which you

1320
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:11,600
Speaker 3: know we're going to, right, as long as they don't lose,

1321
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:13,000
Speaker 3: they're going to end up in that top twelve.

1322
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 2: So schools like Tulane, Army, Navy, Boise State both get

1323
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 2: the benefit of scheduling up scheduling really good Power Conference

1324
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:25,280
Speaker 2: teams quote unquote power conference in this moment, and Liberty

1325
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 2: does not. They're not scheduling, and obviously schedules are made

1326
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 2: in advance, but Liberty does not schedule in that same manner.

1327
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 2: I think it's strength of performance at this point that

1328
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:40,840
Speaker 2: if we need to say, yes, record matters, period. Also

1329
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 2: on top of records mattering, let's look at the manner

1330
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 2: in which you are winning these games. Let's look at

1331
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:49,720
Speaker 2: how dominant your offense is. Let's look about how dominant

1332
01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 2: your defense is against the best teams that you are playing,

1333
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:56,840
Speaker 2: and try our best to project that forward into saying

1334
01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:59,840
Speaker 2: who has earned this spot, because like Liberty going third

1335
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 2: know and Boise going twelve and one are not They're

1336
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:04,720
Speaker 2: not just they're not equal data points and they don't

1337
01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,920
Speaker 2: tell the whole story. So I'm looking for a strength

1338
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 2: of performance in this moment. I'd be curious to hear

1339
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:12,720
Speaker 2: from the verballer hood out there. I know we have

1340
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 2: a lot of folks.

1341
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 3: Even if you're not specifically a G five fan, you're

1342
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:22,680
Speaker 3: interested in that whole side of this playoff discussion, because

1343
01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 3: there's going to be a committee that picks its favorite

1344
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,880
Speaker 3: G five team. Essentially, it's G five conference champion. I

1345
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 3: would like to know what people think with respect to

1346
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:34,000
Speaker 3: that conversation. Right now, I think I would favor Boise

1347
01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:35,880
Speaker 3: for as much as I would like for it to

1348
01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 3: be Army or Navy, because I think that's a cool story.

1349
01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:43,320
Speaker 3: Both teams are dealing and look really really good. I

1350
01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 3: just feel like it's really hard to leave a one

1351
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:50,000
Speaker 3: lost Boise State, provided it's a one lost Boise State

1352
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:53,000
Speaker 3: out of that playoff, knowing that they probably have the

1353
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:54,880
Speaker 3: biggest star in G five and Ash and Gin.

1354
01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:57,439
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you something else, ty you ready?

1355
01:06:57,600 --> 01:06:57,760
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1356
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:02,160
Speaker 2: There is a G five team that beat somebody on

1357
01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 2: the road by twenty today, beat somebody by twenty two

1358
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:10,080
Speaker 2: weeks ago, beat Texas State last week, beat Hawaii by

1359
01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:13,560
Speaker 2: double digits, beat Rice by twenty, and did lose to

1360
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 2: a Power conference team comfortably. And that is the Sam

1361
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 2: Houston Bearcats tie Was it Casey Keeler from Delaware all

1362
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:22,840
Speaker 2: those years back? Is that his name? The head coach?

1363
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 2: But we're just gonna have these schools pop up where

1364
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:28,000
Speaker 2: we're just be like, I'm sorry, Sam Houston nine and one.

1365
01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:30,680
Speaker 2: Should we be having a Sam Houston conversation? I mean,

1366
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:31,960
Speaker 2: he's done great things there.

1367
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:33,760
Speaker 1: But I don't know.

1368
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 2: I just it's week six right now, right, it's still happening.

1369
01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:40,080
Speaker 2: I think we should just appreciate that Army and Navy

1370
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:42,680
Speaker 2: are undefeated, that we're having these stories of these teams growing,

1371
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 2: we're having Ashton gent by the way, gets wrapped up.

1372
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:47,120
Speaker 2: It just keeps going.

1373
01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:48,200
Speaker 1: He's incredible.

1374
01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 2: It's a suggestion. Tackling Ashton Genty is nothing more than

1375
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:54,480
Speaker 2: a suggestion. When you're able to tackle him, that is

1376
01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,320
Speaker 2: a success story. We should give like all American status

1377
01:07:57,400 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 2: to anybody who just wraps him up for a loss.

1378
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:03,959
Speaker 3: The interesting thing about his gait when he runs, watch

1379
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:08,520
Speaker 3: his helmet. It stays perfectly level. Oh yeah, he has

1380
01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 3: such a fluid running motion there, he's like a shark.

1381
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,920
Speaker 3: He's perfectly evolved over millions of years. Oh and there

1382
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:19,600
Speaker 3: is no wasted motion. Yes, incredible.

1383
01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:21,679
Speaker 2: They've had a couple of those running backs in Boise

1384
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:26,000
Speaker 2: like that that are just killers. It's great as smart killers. Yeah,

1385
01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 2: absolute killers. And I'll just call this out real quick.

1386
01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:30,479
Speaker 3: And then we'll get to points eleven and twelve and

1387
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 3: read tweets and play reverbs and all this stuff, and

1388
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,680
Speaker 3: to other people are here for the un l V

1389
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 3: game on Friday Night was a lot of fun.

1390
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 1: It was bonkers. It was great the bonkers.

1391
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:42,439
Speaker 3: But Hodgwleake Williams is really good and I'm kind of

1392
01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 3: bummed that we didn't get to see in the first

1393
01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:46,639
Speaker 3: couple weeks of the season. But there's still a lot

1394
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 3: in front of you and lv I still think this

1395
01:08:48,439 --> 01:08:52,360
Speaker 3: is a really, really good team. My takeaway though was

1396
01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:55,040
Speaker 3: a Kyle mccork can run a little bit faster than

1397
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:56,760
Speaker 3: I expected. There were a couple of moments in that

1398
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:57,519
Speaker 3: game where he.

1399
01:08:57,680 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 2: People say that about me too.

1400
01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:02,560
Speaker 1: People say that about and me as well, not a single.

1401
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,600
Speaker 2: Time as somebody watched me run and be like I

1402
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:07,120
Speaker 2: didn't figure him for running like a gazelle, and I've

1403
01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:07,800
Speaker 2: been proven wrong.

1404
01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:11,160
Speaker 3: I thought Kyle McCord was fleet of foot that I

1405
01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:15,160
Speaker 3: remembered seeing. So there was that, and just Hodge Blake

1406
01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:18,639
Speaker 3: Williams is really really good for UNLV I also liked

1407
01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:21,960
Speaker 3: uh La Quinn Allen for Oh Yeah. For Syracuse there

1408
01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 3: was some story and he just looked like he was

1409
01:09:24,040 --> 01:09:26,800
Speaker 3: hurt and he there was a conversation he had with

1410
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 3: fran Brown apparently like Frank was like, what do you

1411
01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 3: like out of ten injury wise. He was like, I'm

1412
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:32,679
Speaker 3: kind of like an eight out of ten. It's pretty bad.

1413
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:34,280
Speaker 3: And he was like, you want to like rest? He

1414
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 3: was like absolutely not, no, and just kept running. Hit

1415
01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:39,560
Speaker 3: what four touchdowns in that game for Syracuse, including the

1416
01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,960
Speaker 3: game winner and the other one. If we're calling out

1417
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,439
Speaker 3: guys from that game, I listed him on my list

1418
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:45,160
Speaker 3: of doodlers.

1419
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 1: But Ricky White the third for you, Oh my god.

1420
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,320
Speaker 2: The punts, yeah, I mean he blocked a punt.

1421
01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:53,400
Speaker 3: He also caught ten balls for a buck thirty five

1422
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 3: in a touchdown, and he's.

1423
01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 2: A one punt or two punts that he blocked. I

1424
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 2: might be confused, but continue.

1425
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, he blocked one this week. I think he scored

1426
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:02,200
Speaker 3: or to touchdown on a block punt last week.

1427
01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:03,040
Speaker 1: Okay, got it.

1428
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 3: So he's on special teams and he's very very very

1429
01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:10,519
Speaker 3: much in the thick of every special team. Yeah, he's

1430
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:12,960
Speaker 3: somebody who's gonna play on Sundays. So just get used

1431
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:14,800
Speaker 3: to Ricky White the Third. He will find some way

1432
01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,559
Speaker 3: to contribute at the next level when he has done

1433
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:19,920
Speaker 3: at UNLV. But what they are doing at you and

1434
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:22,599
Speaker 3: know you and he's a good team. They're a really

1435
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:24,599
Speaker 3: really good team. And they're fun to watch, So if

1436
01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:26,600
Speaker 3: you have an opportunity to watch them, I would encourage it.

1437
01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:32,759
Speaker 3: Let's close things out with point eleven and point number twelve.

1438
01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:35,559
Speaker 3: Point eleven is hey, Dan, have you seen their record?

1439
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:39,680
Speaker 1: Oh? Have you seen that? Yukon is four and two?

1440
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:40,840
Speaker 3: No?

1441
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:45,320
Speaker 1: Great? Did you see what Charlotte did today? I did

1442
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:45,680
Speaker 1: see that.

1443
01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:47,920
Speaker 2: Against a pretty decent ECU team, Your.

1444
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 3: Boy, ogie, they put up fifty points on Yeah, they

1445
01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:52,000
Speaker 3: ran all over them.

1446
01:10:52,160 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 1: Yeah that's something.

1447
01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:54,760
Speaker 5: Hmm.

1448
01:10:55,000 --> 01:11:00,080
Speaker 3: How about ulm Dan four and one knocked off James Madison.

1449
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:04,760
Speaker 2: Both Monroe and Louisiana in Lafayette, Louisiana. I don't want

1450
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:07,360
Speaker 2: to piss anybody off that's supposed to call Louisiana laughya

1451
01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:09,479
Speaker 2: both thing really well?

1452
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,599
Speaker 1: Yeah? Have you seen Troy as one in five under

1453
01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:13,280
Speaker 1: Jared Parker?

1454
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:15,800
Speaker 2: My boy, I know you're following closely. I know you

1455
01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:18,280
Speaker 2: have Google alerts, I know you have push alerts for

1456
01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:19,519
Speaker 2: all Troy football news.

1457
01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:22,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. I still can't believe they hire the guy. I

1458
01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:22,840
Speaker 1: just I don't.

1459
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,040
Speaker 3: I don't understand. I know there was connective tissue there

1460
01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:29,519
Speaker 3: and mm hmm. One in five makes perfect sense to me.

1461
01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:34,120
Speaker 3: App state is two and three they are, and they

1462
01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:35,000
Speaker 3: kind of look bad.

1463
01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't great.

1464
01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:41,280
Speaker 3: It doesn't It's not a simple fix this, and it's

1465
01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:45,040
Speaker 3: going to get better. It seems like, despite the fact

1466
01:11:45,120 --> 01:11:47,120
Speaker 3: that this is a team that had a lot back,

1467
01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,719
Speaker 3: there were high expectations for this version of what Sean

1468
01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:51,560
Speaker 3: Clark's squad was going to look like.

1469
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,320
Speaker 1: Not looking good. Two and three, Can I give you

1470
01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:56,400
Speaker 1: a record? Please?

1471
01:11:57,280 --> 01:12:00,920
Speaker 2: The Houston Cougars TYE are two and four. Now, okay,

1472
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 2: I don't think Houston had scored a touchdown in like

1473
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:05,240
Speaker 2: a matter of weeks.

1474
01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:05,920
Speaker 1: Yep.

1475
01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:09,639
Speaker 2: It had been gotten pretty dark in Houston. They make

1476
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:12,360
Speaker 2: the change early against TCU and go to Xeon Chris

1477
01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:15,960
Speaker 2: who immediately goes fifteen of eighteen and has a seventy

1478
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,640
Speaker 2: one yard touchdown run straight up the gut of the

1479
01:12:18,760 --> 01:12:19,799
Speaker 2: TCU defense.

1480
01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 6: And No.

1481
01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,679
Speaker 2: Two and four is not an impressive record. I'm gonna

1482
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,640
Speaker 2: this is a campaign platform I'm running on. Two and

1483
01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:29,599
Speaker 2: four is way better than one in five. And Houston's

1484
01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 2: two and four and they ran all over. They held

1485
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,000
Speaker 2: onto the lead against TCU, who could not get go,

1486
01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 2: get things going on offense.

1487
01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:36,920
Speaker 1: Whatever.

1488
01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:40,360
Speaker 2: But Houston, Willie Fritz, We'll see what he's like a

1489
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,439
Speaker 2: good sized dude. I want to say he's built solidly,

1490
01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:45,360
Speaker 2: he's obviously fast. I wonder what they look like moving

1491
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:47,439
Speaker 2: forward in this big, weird big twelve.

1492
01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:52,560
Speaker 3: San Jose State is four and one. They are Kenniamadololo

1493
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:56,000
Speaker 3: having a good start to his campaign. Air Force, on

1494
01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:58,160
Speaker 3: the other hands, one and four maybe one of the

1495
01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:01,200
Speaker 3: worst teams in college football. Yes, which is weird because

1496
01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:04,000
Speaker 3: they've had a good run at air Force is just

1497
01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:07,519
Speaker 3: not the year. No, not the year at all. Just

1498
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,760
Speaker 3: want to call some of those out. Point number twelve

1499
01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 3: comes to us from our YouTube chat and McCall out

1500
01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:16,719
Speaker 3: poor Will whipper?

1501
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 1: Oh? Are you allowed to say that out loud? I

1502
01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:21,080
Speaker 1: guess okay?

1503
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:24,800
Speaker 3: Would all of these upsets prove that the conversation over

1504
01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:31,599
Speaker 3: on Twitter about NIL has been overblown. It's an interesting point,

1505
01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:33,679
Speaker 3: especially since NIL is very much in the news.

1506
01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 2: Well, just I need something more specific, not just the conversation.

1507
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:39,479
Speaker 2: What is the specific point about NIL that it's like

1508
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 2: ruining the sport? Like, what is the point here?

1509
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:44,240
Speaker 3: I think there are a couple points about NIL. I

1510
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:48,679
Speaker 3: think there is a conversation around is it creating more parody?

1511
01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:52,600
Speaker 3: And I think the best case scenario, depending on your

1512
01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:55,680
Speaker 3: point of view, is that yes, that's the case. I

1513
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:58,640
Speaker 3: also think that there is a conversation out there that

1514
01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:05,160
Speaker 3: and I has put into question the motivation of some players. Right,

1515
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:07,760
Speaker 3: it's not just the Matt Sluka thing that we saw

1516
01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,759
Speaker 3: two weeks ago now, but there have been other talks

1517
01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,800
Speaker 3: of guys that are leaving to enter the transfer portal.

1518
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:16,400
Speaker 1: Presumably there's some nil.

1519
01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:20,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, they want to preserve tenerabilities to make money. They're

1520
01:14:20,400 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 2: not playing as much as they thought they would be

1521
01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:23,439
Speaker 2: or making as much as they want to make.

1522
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:29,800
Speaker 3: Okay, So do the upsets prove anything from an NIL standpoint?

1523
01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't think. I just I don't know.

1524
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:35,799
Speaker 2: It's college football like this is every season, Like Bama

1525
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:41,719
Speaker 2: loses games, sometimes Michigan loses games. Sometimes Ohio State loses

1526
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:45,160
Speaker 2: to Purdue. They do are they look for a stretch there?

1527
01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 2: They always looked like they were going to lose to

1528
01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:50,760
Speaker 2: or lost to Purdue, Ohio State lost to Iowa, and

1529
01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 2: Nate Stanley randomly dropped fact check MEWN. This's like fifty

1530
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:57,960
Speaker 2: five points randomly one year. There is something very random

1531
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:02,840
Speaker 2: about trusting to teenagers and young men to be consistently

1532
01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:06,880
Speaker 2: excellent and adhere to a hierarchy within a conference. Yeah,

1533
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:10,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the sport some of the conversation.

1534
01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 3: That I have seen is, you know, like Ohio State's

1535
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:14,200
Speaker 3: a good example of this, right, Ohio State went out

1536
01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 3: there and they didn't build their whole plane out of

1537
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:21,160
Speaker 3: NIL players, transfer portal, what have you, But they were

1538
01:15:21,240 --> 01:15:23,280
Speaker 3: very selective with the guys that went out and got

1539
01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:23,720
Speaker 3: so far.

1540
01:15:23,760 --> 01:15:25,000
Speaker 1: I think those guys have been pretty good.

1541
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:27,680
Speaker 3: But there are plenty of other examples players who have

1542
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 3: been assimilated into new rosters. I'll throw Riley Leonard out there,

1543
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,120
Speaker 3: who have come in and I don't know if they've

1544
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:37,160
Speaker 3: had anywhere close to the impact than many people expected

1545
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,639
Speaker 3: or hoped. And so I just think on the whole

1546
01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 3: the NIL thing, the transfer portal, the way that those

1547
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,320
Speaker 3: two factors interact.

1548
01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:47,879
Speaker 6: It has.

1549
01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:55,600
Speaker 3: Maybe not had the immediate impact as some of the

1550
01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:58,960
Speaker 3: skeptics had predicted.

1551
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:01,599
Speaker 2: Well, I also think if you're looking at certain schools

1552
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:05,919
Speaker 2: like Oregon, like Miami, like Ohio State, whoever, like Texas,

1553
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:08,800
Speaker 2: who are going out and trying to fill gaps via

1554
01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:11,720
Speaker 2: the portal, that it's going to take some time. Not

1555
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:15,320
Speaker 2: everything's gonna gel immediately. Not everybody's gonna know like, oh,

1556
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:17,840
Speaker 2: I know, we're down to cal big, but we can

1557
01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:20,559
Speaker 2: lean on what we did last year against NC State

1558
01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:22,680
Speaker 2: or against Boston College and go to.

1559
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:23,799
Speaker 1: Go in that direction.

1560
01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:26,160
Speaker 2: Like there's not much you can look back on as

1561
01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:29,120
Speaker 2: a unit with some of these teams and say here's

1562
01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:32,760
Speaker 2: what worked when. And so that is the interesting thing

1563
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 2: to me that there are going to be a lot

1564
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:39,400
Speaker 2: of teams who are works in progress for longer as

1565
01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:42,519
Speaker 2: the season goes on. And I don't know, I think

1566
01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,639
Speaker 2: that's okay as long as it's entertaining. It's also entertaining,

1567
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:48,400
Speaker 2: and we're entertained by the sport. And look there there

1568
01:16:48,439 --> 01:16:53,960
Speaker 2: are plenty examples of how quarterbacks have basically quote unquote

1569
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:58,280
Speaker 2: transferred down and have made their new team better.

1570
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:02,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, one good exampmple of that. I'll throw Haynes King

1571
01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:05,000
Speaker 3: out right. Not to say that Texas A and M

1572
01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:08,200
Speaker 3: was any kind of goliath when he left. And obviously

1573
01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:10,400
Speaker 3: Georgia Tech's a power conference team, but they hadn't done

1574
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:13,120
Speaker 3: anything in a long time. Right, This is a very

1575
01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:15,680
Speaker 3: feisty Georgia Tech team with a good offense, and he

1576
01:17:15,840 --> 01:17:18,600
Speaker 3: is the trigger man. There are examples like that that

1577
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:23,400
Speaker 3: aren't necessarily getting the biggest headlines, but you could look

1578
01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:25,519
Speaker 3: at and say, hey, that's a success story. So to

1579
01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:29,160
Speaker 3: that end, to that end, is it introducing a little

1580
01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:33,880
Speaker 3: bit more parody in the sport? Marginally so, And I

1581
01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:36,680
Speaker 3: think it's good. It's not the NFL, right, You're still

1582
01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:39,599
Speaker 3: gonna have twenty five point spreads. But at the same time,

1583
01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:41,080
Speaker 3: it does make some of these games and some of

1584
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:43,839
Speaker 3: these conferences. Certainly it's made the ACC very interesting.

1585
01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,880
Speaker 2: Well, it's also just not the loan variable in the sport.

1586
01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:50,200
Speaker 2: Because of realignment and teams playing and teams traveling in

1587
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:54,040
Speaker 2: new ways and playing later games, playing on Friday more

1588
01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:56,720
Speaker 2: often as we're seeing more of these games, there's just

1589
01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:58,800
Speaker 2: a bunch of variables at play here. So just to

1590
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:02,360
Speaker 2: say that, like, is the common versation about nil overblown? Probably,

1591
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:05,960
Speaker 2: but every conversation about this sport is overblown, and that's

1592
01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,040
Speaker 2: kind of the beauty of it. And I don't know,

1593
01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,160
Speaker 2: it's a short window that we get to watch college football.

1594
01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:12,040
Speaker 2: I'm not going to overthink it. It's a it's been

1595
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:12,840
Speaker 2: a fun year so far.

1596
01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:16,960
Speaker 1: We ask people out on Twitter to fill in two blanks.

1597
01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:21,400
Speaker 3: We say, yes, I am a blank fan, and right

1598
01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:24,679
Speaker 3: now I feel blank and andrewven Sielan's doll a little

1599
01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:25,040
Speaker 3: role play?

1600
01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 1: Shall we let's do it?

1601
01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:28,120
Speaker 3: Oh?

1602
01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:32,400
Speaker 1: If I'm with me? Who the hell am I? What

1603
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:34,040
Speaker 1: did the fine people out there have to say?

1604
01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:34,280
Speaker 5: Dan?

1605
01:18:34,720 --> 01:18:38,519
Speaker 2: I'm a Virginia fan, cautiously optimistic. I'm an SMU fan.

1606
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:42,200
Speaker 2: I'm feeling underrated. I'm a Pit fan, and I'm feeling

1607
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,639
Speaker 2: like the stars are lining up for a special season

1608
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:49,280
Speaker 2: out of nowhere. I'm a Buckeye, okay with playing to expectations.

1609
01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:51,360
Speaker 2: I'm an old miss fan in Kentucky probably has a

1610
01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:56,000
Speaker 2: top five defense in the country. I'm a uf SC fan,

1611
01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 2: so that's South Carolina, not USC and feeling very well,

1612
01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:04,840
Speaker 2: not underwhelmed, not overwhelmed, just whelms. I'm a Florida State

1613
01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:09,080
Speaker 2: fan ready for the US men's national soccer team against Panama.

1614
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:10,400
Speaker 1: How do you feel about that matchup?

1615
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:13,000
Speaker 3: Tie, I got a lot of injuries, got a lot

1616
01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:15,960
Speaker 3: of injuries, but I'm optimistic to turn the page and

1617
01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:19,360
Speaker 3: start fresh under Mauricio poo Oh.

1618
01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:22,599
Speaker 2: I know you're very excited about that. Wake Forest fan

1619
01:19:22,720 --> 01:19:25,640
Speaker 2: feeling better after quality win. You mentioned the NC State win.

1620
01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:27,719
Speaker 2: Always good for Wake to win. Is that a quality

1621
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:29,120
Speaker 2: time is that a quality win.

1622
01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:32,200
Speaker 1: Any win is a quality win for Wake in twenty

1623
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:34,040
Speaker 1: twenty four. That is a fair point.

1624
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:37,439
Speaker 2: Virginia Tech fan. I'm feeling like the transitive property is

1625
01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:40,680
Speaker 2: the most important aspect of college football. That's a good

1626
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 2: way to think about it. Georgia better than last week,

1627
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:45,559
Speaker 2: by the way, didn't talk about Georgia Auburn a Ton.

1628
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:48,000
Speaker 2: Georgia was fine.

1629
01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:49,880
Speaker 3: We didn't talk about it at all. Dan, We'll talk

1632
01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:57,240
Speaker 3: performance as you might be. I'm a UAB fan and

1633
01:19:57,280 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 3: I'm feeling like a victim of fraud.

1634
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:03,599
Speaker 1: It's been a tough few weeks.

1635
01:20:04,280 --> 01:20:08,480
Speaker 2: Birmingham, I'm a Penn State fan. I'm feeling moderately satisfied.

1636
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:11,600
Speaker 1: I wouldn't put that in your vows. It's not a

1637
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 1: great place.

1639
01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:19,960

1640
01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:22,360
Speaker 1: I'm a Vandy fan and I'm proud. Go doors.

1642
01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:28,000
Speaker 2: Vanderbilt fan. Yep, that's pretty cool. Threw something out there

1643
01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:30,439
Speaker 2: that he was pretty pumped about it. West Virginia fan,

1644
01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:34,240
Speaker 2: and I'm feeling dangerous. I like that Oregon fan like

1645
01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:36,679

1649
01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:47,160
Speaker 1: I know, I have to start thinking about this.

1650
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:50,560
Speaker 2: I credit I saw that from John Wilner of the

1651

01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:37,320
Speaker 6: Kevin performers Branch and I'd like to make sure everyone

1709
01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:40,560
Speaker 6: is aware that James Madison is no longer undefeated, and

1710
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:43,880
Speaker 6: the sleeping giant on the shores of Bayou de Seared

1711
01:23:44,400 --> 01:23:47,240
Speaker 6: has awakened from its lenky slumber.

1712
01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:48,959
Speaker 1: Lookout sun Belt.

1713
01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:52,720
Speaker 3: Between cal Crushing game Day and Vender built upsetting Alabama

1714
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:53,479
Speaker 3: this weekend.

1715
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:56,559
Speaker 1: It's for the nerds. Welcome to Lewis skull Nick Saturday.

1716
01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:03,120
Speaker 1: It's pandemic. No, it's pneumonium in Nashville, Go Vandy.

1717
01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:05,080
Speaker 5: Today we are all commodores.

1718
01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:05,560
Speaker 6: Let's go.

1719
01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:07,880
Speaker 1: Bandy's one an amazing game.

1720
01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:10,400
Speaker 5: I don't know if this world is coming too, because

1721
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:13,800
Speaker 5: I'm literally searching up.

1722
01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:18,759
Speaker 1: A Landy dog jersey for my Donkiego Diego.

1723
01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:22,200
Speaker 3: Pavia is thanking God and swearing on live TV after

1724
01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:23,120
Speaker 3: beating Alabama.

1725
01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:25,960
Speaker 2: This dude might as well be the naughty tim zeebo.

1726
01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:29,320
Speaker 3: Vama can handle the environment, but I guess they can't

1727
01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:33,720
Speaker 3: handle an active construction zone anger down. Vanderbilt won't even

1728
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,639
Speaker 3: sniff a top twenty five ranking, and Alabama will probably

1729
01:24:36,680 --> 01:24:38,080
Speaker 3: win the national championship.

1730
01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:40,840
Speaker 1: But you can't tell me the results like today's don't matter.

1731
01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 1: Go doors, smart guys with the dub. There you go,

1732
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:46,719
Speaker 1: smart guys with the dub.

1733
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,160
Speaker 3: What a way to close things out, dann Or have

1734
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:53,880
Speaker 3: been seeing you appreciate everybody calling in at eight five, five, verbal,

1735
01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:58,320
Speaker 3: three yes, A wonderful assortment of listener voice messages. Like

1736
01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:00,880
Speaker 3: I said, there are many more that did come in

1737
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:02,840
Speaker 3: that will come in over the course of the next

1738
01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:07,040
Speaker 3: few hours. My phone buzzes at like four am with

1739
01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:10,200
Speaker 3: all of these voice messages that come in. So we

1740
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:14,400
Speaker 3: will do our part too, take care of whatever Miami

1741
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:16,960
Speaker 3: thoughts are out there, as it looks like the Canes

1742
01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:19,600
Speaker 3: are going to be the sixth Top eleven team to

1743
01:25:19,680 --> 01:25:22,040
Speaker 3: go down this weekend on a crazy week six.

1744
01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:26,040
Speaker 2: At time of recording, Fernando Mendoza is averaging nearly.

1745
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:27,920
Speaker 1: Seventeen yards per.

1746
01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:32,400
Speaker 2: Attempt throwing into this Miami defense, and they just keep

1747
01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:36,160
Speaker 2: showing a perturbed looking crystal ball on the sidelines, and

1748
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:40,280
Speaker 2: he keeps checking his commsbox whatever is like hooked up

1749
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:43,280
Speaker 2: to his belt loop, as if that's got something to do.

1750
01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:45,120
Speaker 2: Like when you're losing a video game and you're like

1751
01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 2: this controller working, I'm fine, clearly, I'm doing everything right.

1752
01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:51,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, something is glitchy here.

1753
01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:55,200
Speaker 3: Look longer show than usual, But obviously we had a

1754
01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:58,000
Speaker 3: lot to get through. We still didn't get through at all.

1755
01:25:58,120 --> 01:25:59,840
Speaker 3: So if you didn't hear your team, or if you

1756
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:03,160
Speaker 3: didn't hear us, unpack things in the level of detail

1757
01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:05,960
Speaker 3: that you're used to, come on back on Tuesday.

1758
01:26:06,080 --> 01:26:07,519
Speaker 1: We will do our best to go through it all.

1759
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:08,040
Speaker 5: Then and there.

1760
01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:12,200
Speaker 3: But in the interim, Dan, this, as I said at

1761
01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 3: the top, has been one of the craziest weeks I

1762
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:16,760
Speaker 3: can remember. You and I were scrambling right up until

1763
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:19,080
Speaker 3: the gun here at midnight, Yeah, to try and put

1764
01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:21,960
Speaker 3: together what this show was going to look like because

1765
01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:25,720
Speaker 3: there was too much to talk about. I didn't need

1766
01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:28,839
Speaker 3: so much happening. I didn't even get to Jason Bennetti

1767
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 3: carving out his portion of the Oregon broadcast to shout

1768
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:36,639
Speaker 3: out the covered bridges in Lane County, which, by the way,

1769
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:37,040
Speaker 3: he did.

1770
01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 2: He shouted out. He was like, yeah, apparently if you

1771
01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:42,000
Speaker 2: tell a producer that there are a bunch of covered

1772
01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:45,040
Speaker 2: bridges in this county, they'll just go out and shoot

1773
01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:47,320
Speaker 2: video of them. And they showed a bunch of covered bridges.

1774
01:26:47,840 --> 01:26:50,960
Speaker 2: That's why I love this sport, because announcers love shouting out.

1775
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:54,879
Speaker 2: You need like a Wisconsin announcer shouting out Lake Mendota.

1776
01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:58,479
Speaker 2: Does he or she needs to absolutely not. No, it's beautiful.

1777
01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:03,360
Speaker 2: It is beautiful and what we saw today. Apologies if

1778
01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:06,680
Speaker 2: your team was one of the victims. But this is

1779
01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:10,680
Speaker 2: the reason that people watch. This is the currency, the lifeblood,

1780
01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:12,480
Speaker 2: this is the engine.

1781
01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 3: Behind the sport. This is the reason why we all watch.

1782
01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:16,840
Speaker 3: It's upsets like this. It's David versus Goliath. It's this

1783
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:19,680
Speaker 3: contrast between the haves and the have nots, and the

1784
01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 3: drama that kind of unfolds. So we are fortunate to

1785
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:25,680
Speaker 3: be doing this once more. We are fortunate to have

1786
01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:28,400
