We had the Slugfest in College Station Miami, 16 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: pulling that one out over Texas A and M. And 17 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: then we had two matchups later in the day today 18 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: Ole miss Tulane and as we are recording now, James 19 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: Madison against Oregon, both of which are runaway trains not 20 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 1: entirely unexpected, although I will admit it does bring up 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: some other conversations around the structure of the playoff and 22 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: the sport and what have you. It is really just 23 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: a blank canvas onto which you can project all that 24 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: ails you about college football. We will get to that 25 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: as well, Dan Rubinstein, are you able to give me 26 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: your undivided attention given that Orson I'm still playing, Yeah, Oregon, 27 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: Jamie is still going. 28 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 2: Oregon has I think it's fours in at least on defense, 29 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: and Jamu march down the field to score its twenty 30 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 2: seventh point. Oregon's up three touchdowns at the moment. I 31 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 2: don't know what's going to happen there. I assume Oregan's 32 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 2: gonna win going away, and things are going to continue 33 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 2: right now, and I guess we can find out at 34 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: the same time as the show progresses. If Jamu makes 35 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: a furious comeback and it gets weird, I don't know, 36 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: but Oregon seems to have it in hand. Good news, 37 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: bad news time. The good news is we get to 38 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: talk about college football. We get to espouse opinions if 39 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: I use the word to spouse correctly, and talk through 40 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: these games, talk through these moments and storylines, and you know, 41 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 2: form opinions about how we think things might go moving forward. 42 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: The bad news is I emptied our bank account to 43 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,279 Speaker 2: pay fifty cent for ninety seconds of It's gonna. 44 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: Be a killer. I don't know. 45 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 2: I hopefully it goes better for us than it did 46 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: for Oklahoma bringing him in before the fourth quarter. Yeah, 47 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: but I think it's worth it. We'll see, we'll see. 48 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: That killed me when I saw him walking that thous 49 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: is that fitty? Okay? Okay, all right, cool, do whatever 50 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: it takes. I think it's creting. 51 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 2: It was a ReSpectacle. It was great get fifty cent 52 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: to Norman, Oklahoma for a college football game. 53 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,119 Speaker 1: I think it's great. I love it. I love it. Well, Hey, 54 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: welcome back one and all. It is a pleasure going 55 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: to be with you again. Thank you for your sports 56 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: for danelady for listening the whole nine yards. Why don't 57 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: we go in chronological order. You mentioned the Friday night game. 58 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: This one was taking place in Norman, Oklahoma. It was 59 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: the number eight seed Oklahoma playing host to the number 60 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: nine seed Alabama. Was a rematch of a game that 61 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: took place about a month ago. Remember Oklahoma won that 62 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: one by a twenty three to twenty one final. Yes, 63 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: so I was among the chorus of people out on x, 64 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: the everything app who posted about the early demise of 65 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: Alabama when they went down seventeen zip. 66 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: Oh that was you. Oh yeah, I knew I wasn't 67 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: going to say anything. There's no winning with those maniacs. 68 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was one of them. It did not age well, 69 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: and as the second half was going down, I am 70 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: just praying to the Lord above that our friend Freezing 71 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: Cold Takes does not highlight my early tweet here. 72 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: Can I tell you also why I was trying to 73 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: dance on Alabama in that moment. Oklahoma has exclusively scored 74 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: between like seventeen and twenty five points this season, especially 75 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: against quality defenses, and they scored seventeen of those points 76 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: pretty quickly. So I was like, look, maybe it's a 77 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 2: different kind of night and they're scoring forty five, but 78 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: it's still against the Alabama deep. 79 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: Against the Alabama defense, And. 80 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 2: So I was like, I am not Look, I'm prepared 81 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 2: for Oklahoma to win this game. But at that moment, 82 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, I could see Oklahoma winning this 83 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 2: game twenty three to twenty two, you know, and holding 84 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 2: on for dear life. But no, I wasn't in your 85 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: head space. But I appreciate that we're all different snowflakes here. 86 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: I jumped the gun, though that account didn't zing me. 87 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: Many others did. In my defense, A I did pick 88 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: Alabama beforehand to win the game. You may recall only 89 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: one member of this broadcasting dynamic duo did, and it 90 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: was me. You're truly yeah. And secondly, there weren't a 91 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: whole lot of people out there who were posting the 92 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: counter argument like, oh yeah, Alabama, they got them right 93 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 1: where they won them. I didn't see any of that 94 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: out there, so the observation was wrong. I think everybody 95 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: had the same observation, albeit mine might have been a 96 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 1: little bit more public, a little bit too soon. But 97 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: I deserve to take the medicine, and I did. 98 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about the game. Let's talk about what 99 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: transpired between the sidelines. 100 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: I think a couple things are true at once. We 101 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: would agree that Alabama got off to a terrible start. Yeah, yeah, definitely. 102 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: We would agree that after that terrible start, the manner 103 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: in which Alabama came back when on a thirty four 104 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: to seven run the remainder of the game and just 105 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: dominated Oklahoma through and through, we would agree that they 106 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: deserve all the flowers for that. Yes, oh yeah it was. 107 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 2: It was a terrific regrouping from Alabama and figuring out, 108 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: Look the difference in this game, in this ten point 109 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 2: spread between these two teams. I mean, look, there was 110 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 2: a lot of differences after those seventeen nothing after the 111 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 2: seventeen nothing start, but you had the sort of horrible 112 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: punt situation that I guess Alabama sort of fell into 113 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: a blocked punt and got a field goal out of that, 114 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 2: I believe, on that short field and they baited I 115 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: think it was which corner was it. It wasn't Domanti Jackson, 116 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: but corner for Alabama baited Jeoh Matier into a pick 117 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: six and there's your ten points. And it was terrific. 118 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: It was a turnabout fair play, to be honest with you, 119 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: because if we think back to that first matchup, what 120 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: did we talk about, Oklahoma got seventeen points off of 121 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: Alabama mistakes, Yes, and baby and Brown by the way, 122 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: this time around, it was Alabama that was able to 123 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: take advantage of those mistakes. So they go down seventeen 124 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: the zip. We can debate whether or not we think 125 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: Oklahoma is any good. That's a conversation for another day. 126 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: But Oklahoma was up and Oklahoma's got a good defense, 127 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: and in theory, it wouldn't have taken much more to 128 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: fully put Alabama out of their misery at that point 129 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: in time. So Bama on the road at night eighty 130 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,679 Speaker 1: three thousand, screaming fans against a good defense, it could 131 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: have gone sideways. The fact that they managed to turn 132 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: things around to recapture momentum and go on that kind 133 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: of a run I thought was a damn good effort 134 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: from the top on down, from Kalin de Bor right 135 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: on through the starting roster. Because like early on they 136 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: couldn't pressure John Matteir and they were talking about it 137 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: on the broadcast, but then they changed, they made some adjustments. 138 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: They come away with five sacks. Early on they were 139 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: showing the up close visual of ty Simpson's eyes and 140 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: his feet and everything seemed out of whack, like he 141 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: was seeing ghosts. And then he cal him down correct 142 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: and he got better. And so I think we can't 143 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: start this conversation in ernest without paying homage to the 144 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: job that Alabama did here. 145 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 2: Well, this is, by the way, this is this is 146 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: also umbrella before kickoff of like Michigan is convinced that 147 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 2: it can make a run at Kaylan de bor pending 148 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: what's happening in this game to whatever veracity, but that 149 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 2: is you know, being reported by Pete Thamill before kickoff 150 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 2: that this game has implications for the Michigan coaching surf, 151 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: potential coaching search potentially if Kaylen de borr and Alabama 152 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 2: aren't able to go on the road and come away 153 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: with a win, that they feel confident that Alabama's not 154 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: going to be super keen on then heaping a huge 155 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 2: extension a new deal on Kalen de bor losing in 156 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 2: the first round, especially after losing in the manner that 157 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: they did to Georgia and the SEC championship game. So 158 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: like that is that is sort of hovering over this 159 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 2: game as well going into it. And Alabama looked tight, 160 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 2: Ty Simpson looked tight. The protection wasn't there. They couldn't 161 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 2: figure out a you know, nobody's been able to figure 162 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: out the Oklahoma pass rush this year because it's been 163 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: excellent and overwhelming ninety five percent of the time. This 164 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 2: obviously an Oklahoma team led by its defense. But you're right, 165 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: they calm down, they hit plays down the field. It 166 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 2: was I think it was Latzier Brooks was a catalyst 167 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 2: for this team. We mentioned the pick six and that 168 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 2: quick field goal, which, like Alabama hadn't done anything really 169 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: in the first half consistently, but it was seventeen all 170 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: at the half, correct, seventeen doll at the half. 171 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: So it and that brings me sort of, I think, 172 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: to the other side of this, because I don't think 173 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: we can earnestly talk about Alabama beating Oklahoma without at 174 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: least talking a little bit about Oklahoma beating itself, because 175 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: this was a big part of the game too, and 176 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 1: you've alluded to it a couple times over. I am 177 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: not saying this is the only reason why Alabama won, Okay, 178 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 1: I thought what Alabama did to come in to recapture 179 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: the momentum and kind of turn the tide little punt, 180 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: I thought that was outstanding and absolutely a good way 181 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: to start off this playoff run. So kudos to them. 182 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: Alabama did get some breaks in this one, just the 183 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: way that Oklahoma did the first time round. You mentioned 184 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: the punter dropped the punt, not even boy just dropped it. 185 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: They fell on it. They turned that into points. There 186 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: was also the pick six, which you mentioned earlier. Right 187 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: out of my College Football twenty sixth dynasty. I throw 188 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: that pass. I have seen that go back for six. 189 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 1: That was a bad decision by John Mattire. The other 190 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: one that you didn't mention was a play I think 191 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: about four thirty left in the first half. Mattier evades 192 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: a pass rush, makes a nice move to get away 193 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: from a defender, rolls out to his left, throws kind 194 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: of back across his body down the field. Zavid Robinson's 195 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: wide open may not have been a perfect pass, but 196 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: it was blown coverage. If he catches it, it's a 197 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: walk in touchdown, but he drops it. Those three plays, 198 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: in my mind, were the ones that flipped everything. 199 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 2: There were You're right, and there were both ways there were. 200 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 2: I mean, there was the Jermy or Nard in the 201 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 2: second half wide open drop. There was the overthrow early 202 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 2: on from John Mattie. Like there the passing game, and 203 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: I'd sort of half attribute this to just the time off. 204 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 2: Oklahoma's been off obviously longer than Alabama, but as well 205 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 2: as it seemed Oklahoma was playing man watching John Mattier 206 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: when he knew it was a pass, when it was 207 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: an obvious passing situation, or he knew he had to 208 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 2: go through progressions. It was very rare, if ever, where 209 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 2: he dropped back and didn't spaz out a little bit. 210 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of a better word for the 211 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: discomfort that he seemed to feel in the pocket. And 212 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 2: obviously leader and playmaker and rolls out and improvises his 213 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 2: sensational runner, obviously with the ball in his head, like, 214 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: but there is something about the calm nature of excellent 215 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 2: quarterbacks that I don't think John Matteer possesses, at least 216 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: not in the bigger games that Oklahoma has played. And 217 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's a design thing, I don't 218 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 2: know if that's a teaching thing, But the number of 219 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 2: plays where he dropped back and calmly and in a 220 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 2: rhythm stepped into the pocket and threw the ball confidently 221 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 2: down the field, if that happened twice, I think I 222 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: may have missed it right that, Like, there was something 223 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: a little bit too spastic for me to feel comfortable. 224 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: And that's how you get to you know, score. You know, 225 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 2: however many points per drive that Oklahoma's ending up you know, 226 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 2: in like the eighties this season, and so for them 227 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: to get this far with this lack of confident offense 228 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 2: I think is pretty impressive. 229 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the best of Jo Materier is really exciting. 230 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: But I would say on the whole, what I saw 231 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: from him in this game is something that we have 232 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: seen from time to time throughout the course of the year, 233 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: and that is there's also a lot of dude perfect 234 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: in his passing game. You know, where he's changing our 235 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: angles and he's doing some sort of weird stuff. He 236 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: threw a couple like fade away passes in this game 237 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: where he's not like driving his momentum through so mechanically 238 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: they're some I think some rough edges there. I'm not 239 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: a quarterback coach nor a quarterback expert. I just play 240 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: one on the podcast, but watched enough football to know 241 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: what usually works and what usually doesn't. And yeah, definitely 242 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: some moments watching the tier. All that being said, it's 243 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: not been a great Oklahoma offenses here. This wasn't the 244 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: worst showing that I've seen from the Oklahoma offense. Way 245 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: very Materier dependent, but the best of him is really good. 246 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: We saw some really good, incredible catch by Dion Burks 247 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: on the sidelines. They didn't really get Isaiah Satania going. 248 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: He did have a touchdown, but only like two for 249 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: seventeen on six targets. So that was one guy we 250 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: were watching because he's been such a big play threat 251 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: for this Oklahoma offense. I didn't think the Oklahoma offense 252 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: was bad, but the Alabama defense just did such a 253 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: good job forcing third downs. I think I saw something 254 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: like Oklahoma had fourteen total drives and eight team third 255 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: down attempts. They went something like seven of eight on 256 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: third downs, so even that wasn't horrible, but the Alabama 257 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: defense just did a really good job forcing them to 258 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: get to that third down scenario. And as we'll talk 259 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: about here in the next game when we get to Miami, 260 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: Texas A and m just forcing those third downs puts 261 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: your defense and your team in a position to win 262 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: field position, to wield win time of possession, to get 263 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: some points on the board. So that was a very 264 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: key element to the way that Alabama attacked this offense, 265 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: mostly in the second half of this game. 266 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: Well, but also should mention Alabama's pass rush has not 267 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 2: been excellent this year. They kind of got that going 268 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 2: in the second half of they did one they did 269 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 2: they really seemed to rotating multiple guys off of edges 270 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 2: playing some pass rush games. They really start getting to 271 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 2: Matier and disrupting an Oklahoma offensive line that at best 272 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 2: was probably up and down this season, obviously improved, but 273 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 2: in terms of like what this Oklahoma offense wants to do, 274 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 2: dropping John Matteer back and going through progressions in getting 275 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 2: to third and eights thirty nine, Alabama had Oklahoma exactly 276 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 2: where they wanted to be. And you could see that 277 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: comfort and aggression from Alabama up front without having to 278 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 2: send extra dudes, right they were getting pressure with just 279 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 2: the guys on the line, and it really seemed to 280 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 2: rattle Oklahoma. And by the way, by the way, Tate 281 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 2: Sandel's incredible. He's an incredible kicker. He won the gross 282 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 2: did he not? Yes windy night Friday night in Norman. 283 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 2: Obviously Oklahoma had shots at the end of this game. 284 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 2: I'm not putting it on him because this offense wasn't 285 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 2: performing in the second half. I actually appreciated when they 286 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 2: were going for those field goals. They miss a short 287 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: field goal that goes sort of above I think it 288 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: was a thirty six yard or so that goes above 289 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: and slightly to the left of one of the uprights. 290 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: And the whole stadium wasn't shock because he missed a 291 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: field goal, gets the ball back still down ten Oklahoma 292 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: gets the ball by the ball back goes for something 293 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: from like fifty some midd yards. Yeah, it comes up short, 294 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 2: and it comes up short the winster. 295 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: By the way, are we sure he missed that field goal? 296 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 2: I don't think there was anywhere near enough evidence right that, 297 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 2: like the I mean, the refs are staring straight up 298 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: the upright. I didn't see enough evidence to be like, oh, 299 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: that was definitely fully inside, right, that's the rule. Yeah, 300 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 2: the ball has to be fully inside. And I don't 301 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 2: think there was enough evidence to really examine. 302 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: Why can't they just make the uprights bigger? 303 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: How big? Tie? How big? I think there's physics involved. 304 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 2: And when I tell you I got to be minus 305 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: in physics in high school, Tie, your boy Dan gotta. 306 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: Be minus in physics. But yes, continue, fair enough. Your 307 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: final score here was thirty four to twenty four in 308 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: favor of Oklahoma. It was not the prettiest showing by 309 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: any stretch of the imagination. But I do think they 310 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: showed a lot of toughness. This is a hostile setting, 311 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: these Friday games. I mean, we saw it last year 312 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: with Notre Dame in Indiana. It's a very loud, very 313 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: raucous environment to kick off the playoff, the first round 314 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: of the playoff, and to go into another stadium and 315 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: win a game like that in that Friday night primetime setting. 316 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: I look, you gotta give them credit. You absolutely have 317 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: to give him credit. It was a great season for Oklahoma. 318 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 1: Alabama moves on now to play in the Rose Bowl 319 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 1: on New Year's Day at four pm Eastern time. It 320 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: changed the start time. Indiana is a seven point favorite 321 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: at time of recording. I have seen that juggle around 322 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: a little bit. I saw it dipped to six and 323 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: a half. We'll have to monitor over the next ten 324 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: days whatever it is, see if that line moves at all. 325 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: We will be doing our playoff preview for the quarterfinals 326 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: that drops next Sunday, so we've got some time to 327 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: sit and digest and think about all this game, all 328 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 1: these actions, all this game action. Excuse me, but also 329 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: react to whatever point spread it ends up being when 330 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: we recorded at the end of the week, so you know, 331 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: we'll have a time and place to talk about that game. 332 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: It is certainly intriguing on about a thousand different levels. 333 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: But I think it's a really exciting matchup. I'm really 334 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: excited to see what that one looks like. It's a 335 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: big deal for both these teams. 336 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 2: And by the way, Kurt Signetty former Obama coach, Klen Deborr, 337 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 2: former Indiana. 338 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: Coach, I know, so I'm saying, man, a lot of 339 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 1: connective tissue, a lot of connective tissue. 340 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: And just to put a bow on it, Ty, I 341 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 2: regret nothing I said about Alabama and getting into this tournament, 342 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: this invitational, this TV show. I retract nothing. I regret nothing. 343 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,479 Speaker 2: The ends don't justify the means. Alabama was better than 344 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 2: Oklahoma in Tuscaloosa, they were better than Oklahoma here and 345 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 2: they proved it and they won, and it's good for 346 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: Alabama and it was a sensational showing. But the ends 347 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 2: do not justify the means. It is a farce that 348 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: they're in this TV show. How about that. 349 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm not even going there anymore. You should not listen. 350 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: I'm over it. I'm over it. Don't be scared of 351 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: internet needs TI come on, scaredy the Internet. We need it. 352 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: Sounds like you are I'm not. I'm just I'm I'm 353 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: a broken man. Okay, okay, I'm broken, and I am 354 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: taking this game in a vacuum. I thought Alabama came 355 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: back impressively. So I don't know what that means for 356 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 1: the future of the College Football Playoff, either in twenty 357 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: twenty six or just here in twenty twenty five, but 358 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: A wins away and in thirty four to twenty four you 359 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: will take that on the road at night again. Eighty three, 360 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: five hundred and fifty was the official attendance. 361 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 2: O Man and Oklahoma lost to US sponsors exemption continue. 362 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: Set all all right, Speaking of SEC teams, we had 363 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: another one. This game was played earlier today as we 364 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: record this on Saturday evening, Miami came to Texas, A 365 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: and M What is your preferred nomenclature for this game, 366 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: because we can go slugfest, slobber knocker, rock fight, knife fight, 367 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: bar fight, field goal fest fest, or of attrition? What 368 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: are you into? Do you do? You have something that 369 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: came to mind as you were watching this game as 370 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: you were preparing for this show. 371 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 2: Wounded sumo. Right, I don't know. That's pretty good, right, 372 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 2: So there's a lot of hef to this game, right, 373 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: you have the wounds of just like an inability of 374 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: Miami to get anything going offensively. The wounds maybe emotionally 375 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: and mentally from Texas A and M and the mistakes 376 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 2: that they, you know, committed on offense. But even still, 377 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 2: there was enough heft and aggression in the trenches going 378 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 2: both directions. Really, Oh oh yeah, that I'm comfortable saying 379 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 2: that Miami was the superior wounded sumo. 380 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: This was a demolition derby. Sure. It was zero zero 381 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 1: at half. Everybody online was posting the Frank Beamer. 382 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 2: You know which one I mean, of course, Well, because 383 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 2: I want to say who who scored first in this one. 384 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 2: Emmy scored first, Miami scored first. I think we had 385 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 2: the Mario pose. I don't know if it was after 386 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 2: a blocked field. There was some moment where he had 387 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 2: the pose. I believe Mario had the Beamer pose. 388 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: It was zero zero at half. It was three to 389 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: three until late in the game when Miami scored to 390 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 1: go ahead touchdown with a little under four minutes left 391 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: in the game. The win played a huge factor. Yeah, 392 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: this game, kickers were two of six in total. Miami's 393 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: Carter Davis missed three field goals. He kicked one. I 394 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: believe it was his second miss, and you and I 395 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: were chatting about this one on slack. He kicked the ball, 396 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: it looked like it was online and then it got 397 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: hit by the wind whipping off the planes, just a 398 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: wall of something that pushed it wide right. It was 399 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: the second miss on the day. He also had a 400 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: doink at some point or another. It was really rough 401 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,719 Speaker 1: for the kickers. I don't even blame them. It was 402 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 1: really windy out there. 403 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 2: And my twenties is what I thought. I want to say, 404 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 2: who was doing this game? McDonough and McDonald leroy, Yeah, yeah, 405 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 2: that's what they were pointing to near thirty mile an 406 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 2: hour wins. 407 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I thought McElroy, to his credit, it just 408 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: as I was thinking it. McDonough asks the question, Hey, Greg, 409 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: when you're playing quarterback in wins like this, what does 410 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: it do to the deep ball. It was right after 411 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: Carson Beck airmailed a ball to somebody I forget who, 412 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: who had a step on a Texas A and M defender. 413 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: It was way over his head. He clearly didn't want 414 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: to underthrow it dealing with wind, and that's why it 415 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: was just, you know, way over the guy's head and 416 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: McElroy brought it up. He was like, look, it's really tough. 417 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 1: It's different if you've got sustained wins in one direction, 418 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: but that was not the case in Kyle Field. You 419 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: had swirling wins that were all over the place. It 420 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: kept changing direction, it kept intensifying as the game wore on. 421 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: So this was a real challenge and I think that's 422 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: at least part of the reason why Carson Beck had 423 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: one hundred and three yards past. They didn't even really 424 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: resort to trying to stretch the field all that much 425 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 1: through the air. Thankfully, they had Mark Fletcher, who had 426 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: a terrific game on the ground for the Canes, and 427 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: we could talk through that here. 428 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 2: Almost in spite of Shannon Dawson and the Miami offensive 429 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 2: brain trust, like it feels very counter to like the 430 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 2: ideal of Miami football under Mario Christobal, which is just 431 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 2: mashing teams and wearing them down and then maybe hitting 432 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 2: play action situations to a tight end or in this 433 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 2: case Malachai Toni. They went away from Mark Fletcher, who 434 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 2: I think was averaging even before that long run that 435 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: helped to ice things near the end and set up 436 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 2: that score. He was averaging like eight yards of carry, 437 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: especially running between the tackles, and obviously they went to 438 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 2: him in that moment. I was like, fifty sixty yard run. 439 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 2: But it was weird that Mark Fletcher went as long 440 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 2: as he did without consistently getting the rock. 441 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 1: I kind of feel like we nailed the preview for 442 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: this one, and I. 443 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 2: Say I didn't fully, but continue, well, we had elements of. 444 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: This game, right. I think we had the right idea. 445 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: We both thought there'd be more points. There's no way 446 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 1: anyone predicted ten three. I think you had twenty seventeen. 447 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 1: I thought it would be quasi shootout, and I had 448 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: it at thirty eight thirty five. But we definitely figured 449 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: on this one being a close, physical game, and for 450 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: my part, I called out big plays and who was 451 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: going to get more of them and Miami's offensive line, 452 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: and both of those absolutely came into play. So if 453 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: you look back at this game, A and M did 454 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: have a fifty nine yard pass to Mario Craver and 455 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: four other plays over ten yards, but nothing over twenty. No, 456 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: Miami had the fifty six yard run by Mark Fletcher 457 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, which set up the game winning touchdown. 458 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: For my money, that was kind of the turning point 459 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 1: of the game, at least the latter half of the game. 460 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: But beyond that, eight plays of more than ten yards, 461 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: two for more than twenty So Miami had a slight 462 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: edge with respect to getting those big plays, those chunk 463 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: plays that can turn field position on its head, give 464 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: a team a certain amount of momentum. And on the 465 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: Miami offensive line front, you can make a really strong 466 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: case that Mark Fletcher was the difference in this one. 467 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: He finished seventeen for one to seventy two, averaged a 468 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: shade over ten per carry. He was the one who 469 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: I thought gave the Kines the biggest lyft on offense 470 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: down the stretch. He was running hard. I mean, as 471 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: I said, Carson Beck only threw for a shade over 472 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: one hundred yards. They were reliant to some extent on 473 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: Mark Fletcher ripping off some of those big runs putting 474 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: them in position. And so this was not necessarily what 475 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 1: we all had on the Bingo card, because despite the 476 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: fact A and M's had a bit of a tendency 477 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 1: to give up some big plays this year, both through 478 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: the air and on the ground, Mark Fletcher, amid some 479 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: of the other talent that this Cane's roster has sometimes 480 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: fades into the background, not for lack of performance, but 481 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 1: just because there are a lot of other more exciting 482 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: names to talk about when we do recaps like this. 483 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: But Mark Fletcher did his part. His mom was going 484 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: crazy in the stands, which was a cool. Yeah. 485 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 2: They were talking about how she was driving all over 486 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 2: the country for his games. 487 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: What's detail from McDonough talk about a pros pro talking 488 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 1: about how she drove from Miami to the colgame. 489 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 2: Should say to the Bay Area? Yeah, for the wild 490 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: game against the Bears. 491 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: Yeah. How long of a drive is that? 492 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 2: If you go straight through and you have cold brew 493 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 2: that's likely illegal in most states, you could probably do 494 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 2: it in a couple days and fifty some odd hours. 495 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 2: I don't know, crazy, but early Okay. Here was the 496 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 2: story of the game to me. The story of the 497 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 2: game to me was the matchup between Miami's defensive line 498 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 2: against what seemed to be a confident Texas A and 499 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 2: M offensive line, and then what they were able to 500 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 2: do to Marcel Reid, what they were able to do 501 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 2: to affect the comfort levels of this Texas A and 502 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 2: M offense. I did not love how this game was 503 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 2: called by Colin Kleine. New Kansas State head coach. Colin Klein, 504 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: by the way, didn't like the game plan in this one. 505 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,679 Speaker 2: And even so when Marcel Reid just sort of could 506 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 2: play with just id right going down the field late 507 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 2: in this game to set up a potential tying touchdown, 508 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 2: aided of course by some mental lapses from the Miami defense, 509 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 2: they made plays and until that point though ruben Bain 510 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 2: was everywhere, Key Mesidor was everywhere. I thought the linebackers 511 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 2: were sensational. Obviously, was it Bryce Fitzgerald who had an 512 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 2: interception early I think on an overthrow and then had 513 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 2: the game ceiling intercept for freshman I believe, Yeah, So 514 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 2: I just on all three levels this defense was. It 515 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 2: was an outstanding game plan for Miami. They suffocated an 516 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 2: overwhelmed Texas A and m upfront A and IM couldn't 517 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 2: do anything on the ground. That to me was the 518 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,479 Speaker 2: difference is play to play Miami. It was just a 519 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: wrecking ball up front and still had the opportunity to 520 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 2: lose this game with Marcel red driving to tie this game. 521 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 2: And it was a great couple plays, by the way, 522 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 2: because there was a break a pass breakup play and before. 523 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 1: Was the pass breakup targeting. It was a hard hit. 524 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 2: It was a hard hit with a very specific part 525 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 2: of the crown. 526 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was I was curious that nobody 527 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 1: mentioned that or why nobody mentioned that, And it kind 528 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: of looked like targeting to me. It's not even to 529 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: say that. Even if they call it Texas A and 530 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: M gets the points and they win the game or 531 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,959 Speaker 1: a tie the game, in this case, I thought that 532 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: was It kind of looked like targeting to me, and 533 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: nobody talked to it, just like everybody panned it. Nothing 534 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: to see here. 535 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 2: It's like, okay, I'd have to watch it back again. Yeah, 536 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:51,479 Speaker 2: I don't know. 537 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: I would like to see more of it. I only 538 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: watched it like seventy five times on replay before we 539 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: hit record. Okay, but know that to me was a bit. 540 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 2: Curious, but I would I would have liked to see 541 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 2: more in the way of creatively utilizing marcel Reads athleticism 542 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 2: in that spot right, that is where he is so elusive, 543 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: that's where he's so great improvising where you have to 544 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 2: respect his feet and his athleticism to such a crazy 545 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 2: degree that I was disappointed with not that they were 546 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 2: asking him to pass it in that spot, but it 547 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 2: seemed like a very plain way to try and score. 548 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: I've completely agree, completely agree, So let me throw this 549 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: out there just to put a ball on what you're 550 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: talking about with Miami's defensive front. I are seven sacks 551 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: excuse me of Marcel read A, Key Mesidor and Reuben 552 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: Bain combined for four and a half of those seven. 553 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: They are ridiculous. I am crazy curious to see what 554 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: that matchup books like against Ohio State. I think it's 555 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: going to be fascinating when they play a little bit 556 00:29:58,800 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: later on this. 557 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 2: Year, especially with what Ohio State didn't look like up 558 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 2: front on offense against Indiana. And basically they're only true 559 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 2: test after that Texas game in terms of playing a 560 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 2: truly ferocious defense. All due respect to Penn State, they 561 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 2: just were not that team this year. So yes, that's 562 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 2: going to be an incredible match and that's indoors, so 563 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 2: we won't have to be dealing with any sort of 564 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 2: wind issues. They're playing that one at Jerry World correct. 565 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: Thank god the wind. So the other thing that I 566 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: would mention, just while we're talking about the defense in 567 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: this matchup, both units were awesome on first and second down. 568 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: Miami had a total of twelve drives. A and M 569 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: forced twelve third down tries. They average one per drive. 570 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: They were only three of twelve, so they weren't a 571 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: great third down team in this one at all. A 572 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: and M had eleven drives and eighteen third down tries. 573 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: They went eight of eighteen. So both defenses were keeping 574 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: their opponent off schedule forcing some of those third down situations. 575 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: And again, just like I said with the previous matchup, 576 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: you force those third downs, it gives your offense and 577 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: opportunity to get better field position, to get a little 578 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: bit of momentum, if nothing more, get the defense off 579 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: the field. So you know, this was I thought a 580 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: game that when a much different direction than we thought, 581 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: even though we got some of the key elements right. 582 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: And the way that Miami sort of found itself in 583 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: the second half, it screams that Miami found itself in 584 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: the second half when you look at some of the 585 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: advanced stats. Two point eight yards per play in the 586 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: first half, eight point seven yards per play in the 587 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: second half, So they've definitely figured something out. They are 588 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: moving on again. Your final here was a ten to 589 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: three thriller in College Station. Texas Miami, now, as we mentioned, 590 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: is going to square off against Ohio State in the 591 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 1: Cotton Bowl. It is on New Year's Eve, seven pm 592 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: Eastern time. The early line is Ohio State minus nine 593 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: and one half points. Stan, Wow, that's a numbers. 594 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 2: My final two thoughts in this one, by the way, 595 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 2: is ultimately I think I came away pretty like whatever 596 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: the wind is, whatever the passing game is, whatever. The 597 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 2: a rhythmic nature of Carson Beck today was Mario Chris 598 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 2: Baal made decisions in this one in short yarded situations, 599 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 2: in go kick moments. You know, they had the short 600 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 2: kick I want to say it was like a twenty 601 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: six yard kick or whatever on fourth and goal. That 602 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 2: sort of underscored his thought that this Texas A and 603 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: M offense, for lack of a better term, wasn't shit right. 604 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 2: The decisions he made were like, if we pin them 605 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 2: inside their twenty five, they're just not gonna be able 606 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 2: to drive the ball at all. Yeah, And so that 607 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: was his calculus and his thinking in those decisions. It 608 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 2: nearly came back to bite them on that final drive 609 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 2: to tie it. 610 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: I messaged you, what's this defense? Right now. I didn't. 611 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: I didn't get it. They're going to lose. 612 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 2: But I guess you can't argue with the final result, 613 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 2: right that Mario Chrisal made those decisions based on thinking 614 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: and believing with his whole heart that Miami's defense could 615 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 2: not be trounced, and for the most part, he was right. 616 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 2: The other thing I just to put a bowl on 617 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: this whole thing is Notre Dame's not in this playoff 618 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: because they lost to a team who scored zero touchdowns 619 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. 620 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: Right. 621 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 2: I wrote that, I did some like back of my 622 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 2: envelope math Notre Dame, both these teams. I know they 623 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 2: lost to both of these teams. But the Texas A 624 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 2: and m game was at home. It was after week one. 625 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: You had the opportunity to not give up forty one points. No, listen, 626 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 2: I'm not And that was a final Marcel Reid throw 627 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 2: to the end zone. 628 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: And this was a final Marcel read throw to the 629 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: end zone. I just saw. 630 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 2: I just saw some parallels here, and there's your there's 631 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 2: your bowl. They're not your Bowl game, there's your opening 632 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 2: round playoff win for Miami. Super impressive. Acc is on. 633 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: To the quarters. We both called it too. We both 634 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: we both did have Miami on the road, Yes, we did. 635 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: We did well on these. That brings us to the 636 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: other two games, Dan oh Miss forty one two lane ten. 637 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: We just want to we just went final in the 638 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: Oregon JMU game, HU fifty one to thirty four, or 639 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: if you won thirty four, fifty one to thirty four, 640 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,720 Speaker 1: was your final? Oregon takes out James Madison. 641 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't comment on exactly what happened in that 642 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 2: fourth quarter because we started our stream, but I saw 643 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 2: some Oregon that it wasn't all like starters out. There 644 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: were some guys in, but it was some you know, 645 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 2: third fourth string guys in the secondary making mistakes. And 646 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 2: that's on Dan Lanning, that's on Tosh Lupoi feeling like 647 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 2: they wanted to get some more depth the action in 648 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 2: this one. So it seems that Jamu kept fighting and 649 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 2: kept moving the ball against Oregon. Maybe it was against 650 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 2: some starters. I don't know, I haven't I haven't looked 651 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 2: at it yet, but I do know that when Oregon's 652 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 2: first string offense was in, Dante Moore had something like 653 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 2: seventeen yards per attempt deep into this game, and they 654 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 2: were getting whatever they wanted on offense, and they were 655 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,800 Speaker 2: distancing themselves. I don't know if it was JMU actually 656 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 2: just like fighting back against good Oregon players, or if 657 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 2: it was Oregon, you know, taking their foot off the 658 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 2: gas a little bit too soon, but it did. For 659 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 2: the stretch I watched, it did seem like Oregon was 660 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: completely outclassing JMU, especially just the offensive players seem so 661 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 2: much faster than the foot speed of what JMU had 662 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 2: to offer on defense, and the Oregon defensive line seemed 663 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 2: to be overwhelming jmu's front on offense. But I'll go 664 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 2: back and watch this second half more closely. 665 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, and for what it's worth, if you had JMU 666 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: plus the twenty one and. 667 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 2: A half, yeah, congratulations, you hit your bet. Decorian Moore 668 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 2: came back, Gary Bryant came back. Evan Stewart I think 669 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 2: is reportedly closer to coming back and it was listed 670 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 2: as questionable. All I want to say in this one, 671 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 2: so Decory Moore and Gary Bryant had missed about a 672 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 2: month after that Iowa game, and Oregon seems more robust 673 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: and versatile on offense when they're in there. They had 674 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 2: some long plays and so Oregon now gets Texas Tech 675 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 2: with a healthier offensive roster, and guys have been stepping 676 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 2: up Malik Benson and Jeremiah McClellan, and certainly they've been 677 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,280 Speaker 2: rotating the running backs really well and the line seems 678 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 2: healthy after they were beat up. 679 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: Texas Tech. Game should be super fun in Miami. In Miami, yep, 680 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 1: it's Capitol and Orange Bowl. Look, I'm going to have 681 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: a conversation here in a second about G five and 682 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: its place in the current college football playoff structure. Right, 683 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: get to that in a second. What I'll say about 684 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 1: JMU A lot of pieces on this team that actually 685 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 1: really like I thought, Alonza Barnett, for his part, definitely 686 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: under assault from the Morgan defense. To put it mildly, 687 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: but nice player, got a lot of wiggle, was able 688 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: to make some guys miss had a touchdown on the 689 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: ground through for two seventy three and two scores, no interceptions. Okay, 690 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: sure they didn't win, they got blown out, but I 691 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: thought he quitted himself. Well, Wayne Knight, I can't where's 692 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 1: my sound? Hello? I had three people send me separately 693 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: messages asking me, wait, is that the Wayne Night? No, 694 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: it's not the Wayne Knight. 695 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 2: What do you mean the people were asking you if 696 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 2: the guy who's now in his sixties. Yeah, I want 697 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 2: to say, they're like. 698 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,800 Speaker 1: Wait, is that the same No, it's not the same 699 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 1: way Night. What are we talking about here? I don't 700 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: know who has your numbers? See exactly? Yeah, No it's 701 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 1: not the same guy. Okay, funny name though, Wayne, good name, 702 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: and there's a Michael Scott on this roster to be 703 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: clear as well. 704 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, he looked good, So I look, I'm we will get. 705 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: To that part of the show. We will talk about 706 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 1: whether JAMU belongs here, whether it didn't belong here. Apparently 707 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: they kept fighting. Fifty one to thirty four was the 708 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: final when we came on the air. I think it 709 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 1: was just forty something to twenty six, right, So they 710 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: have been fighting their way through here. They made it 711 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,240 Speaker 1: to this game. They were on the road. Bob Chesney, 712 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: now is going to be off to UCLA and Oregon 713 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 1: is going to square off against Texas Tech and the 714 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: Capitol One Orange Bowl. You care to venture a guess 715 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: on what that projected point spread looks like in the 716 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: Orange Bowl? Yeah? 717 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 3: Who? 718 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: Oregon, Texas Tech? Who should be favored in that game? 719 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 2: Based on Oregon playing this week and Texas Tech with 720 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: a longer break. I think I have slightly more confidence 721 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,840 Speaker 2: in Oregon if both of these teams are playing somewhere 722 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 2: near their best football. So I'd say between one and 723 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 2: three points, or I guess a toss up. 724 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. The number that I saw at the start 725 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 1: of the week when they started running some projected point 726 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: spreads was one and a half. Okay, it looks as 727 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 1: if it has opened at that one and a half number. 728 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: That's going to jump around. I think of the point 729 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: spreads that we've been kicking around here, that's probably the 730 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: one I'm most interested in following over the course of 731 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: the next you know, seven to ten days, whatever it is, 732 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: till they play this one again. It's on New Year's Day. 733 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: It's the first game on New Year's Day. It's going 734 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: to be a nooner down there at the Orange Bowl 735 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,399 Speaker 1: between Oregon and Texas Tech. These teams have played three 736 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: times in their history, twice in the nineties, once two 737 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: years ago in a really fun game that featured Bo 738 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: Nicks against Tyler Schuck. 739 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 2: FYI that's right, did a little That was a last 740 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 2: second win for Oregon. 741 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,240 Speaker 1: Thirty eight to thirty. I believe it was a final. 742 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 1: It was a pick six. I put that put the 743 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 1: icing on the cake there. Oregon moving on again. They 744 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: were a healthy favorite. They definitely lived up to that. 745 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 1: They did not cover the point spread. I don't I 746 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 1: think there's much. I think they're up thirty five in 747 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,720 Speaker 1: the third quarter. Yes, it was like forty eight to thirteen. Yeah. 748 00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: On the other and final front in the first round 749 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 1: of college football playoff, ole Miss won by thirty one 750 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 1: over two Lane. Forty one to ten was your final. 751 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: Ole Miss needed just three plays and fifty nine seconds 752 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: to score their first touchdown of the game. Then Jake 753 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: Retzov Tulane got the ball back. They went on a 754 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: really nice drive, long drive, drain, like five minutes off 755 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,879 Speaker 1: the clock. I'm thinking, all right, hey, here we go. Yeah, 756 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: a little game, oh little bit of a game. Interception. 757 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: I set it out loud, Dan, it's over. Ye. Ole 758 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,280 Speaker 1: Miss gets the ball back. They score on four plays. 759 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: Ole Miss needed seven plays to go up fourteen to zip. 760 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: All in all, they had twelve drives. They scored on 761 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: seven of them. You can actually say they scored on 762 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: eight of eleven because they took a knee on that 763 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: last drive, or could have scored an eighth time if 764 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: they didn't take a knee on that last drive. So 765 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: there wasn't a whole lot of resistance on the two 766 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: lane front. This was a runaway train. Ole Miss was 767 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 1: a big play machine. They had eleven passes of fifteen 768 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,320 Speaker 1: or more yards. They had four runs of fifteen or 769 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,760 Speaker 1: more yards. They got good push up front. Trinidad Chambliss 770 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: had all day Defensively, they got pressure without blitzing, all 771 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: the stuff. Everything that you might have expected about a 772 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: matchup like this, we saw all of it. The other 773 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: thing that you might have expected or at least watched for, 774 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: was is this gonna look like a different Old Miss 775 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: team because Lane Kiffin isn't there. We didn't see that 776 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: at all. It looked like the same Old Miss team 777 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 1: we've been watching all season one. 778 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Charlie Weis Junior had been calling the offense. Obviously, 779 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin making those big decisions and game planning throughout 780 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 2: the week and having a role in what that offense 781 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 2: looked like. But it looked like it didn't really miss 782 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 2: a beat. Not an overwhelming performance from Keiwan Lacy, who 783 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 2: I want to say was a little bit beat up Trinidad. 784 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 2: Chambliss left for a minute in this one that obviously 785 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 2: seemed to be a little bit scary, but he came 786 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 2: back and didn't seem to miss a beat, spread the 787 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 2: ball around really nicely. And the big thing to me 788 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 2: was the old Miss defense, which at times this year 789 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 2: has been a little leaky, and they have they take 790 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 2: on who Georgia again right in their next round, YEP, 791 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 2: and so we'll see if this type of defensive performance 792 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,280 Speaker 2: goes on Tulane. The numbers are sort of not indicative 793 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 2: at all. Tulane couldn't really do anything in this one. 794 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,439 Speaker 2: I think they put up something like one hundred and 795 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,799 Speaker 2: twenty some odd yards after they were down by thirty eight, 796 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 2: and so it made sort of their their totals look 797 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 2: better than they actually were. But Tulane could not figure 798 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 2: this out. They could not stay on the field and 799 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 2: there was just a ton of grass in vod Hemingway 800 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,959 Speaker 2: for this Ole Miss offense. So a thorough beat down 801 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 2: and good for all Miss in this position without their 802 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 2: head coach for the majority of the season, and so 803 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 2: you could see the sort of relief and excitement in 804 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 2: Pete Golding's face in this one. As the game wore on, 805 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 2: and look, they look like Ole Miss, and they looked 806 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,879 Speaker 2: like we weren't sure would or to what extent they 807 00:42:58,880 --> 00:42:59,720 Speaker 2: look like Ole Miss. 808 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 1: They looked like all Miss. And you know, on the 809 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: Tulane front, at times they were able to get a 810 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 1: little bit going on the ground, so that was a 811 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: bright spot. Jake Reetzloff I thought, for the most part, 812 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 1: looked okay. He didn't have a whole lot of help. 813 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 1: He was under assault the entire game, and you know, 814 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: it had some nice moments in this one, but it 815 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: just wasn't enough. And as was very much the case 816 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:26,720 Speaker 1: on the Oregon JMU side, we saw that with Oregon 817 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: or Old Miss Tulane as well. There's just such a 818 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: huge talent disparity. There's a huge talent disparity, and try 819 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: as they might, Tulane just did not have what it 820 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 1: took to run with Old Miss. Even though they had 821 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 1: a few drives where it seems like maybe they were 822 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:45,399 Speaker 1: getting something together, they they did not have enough playmakers 823 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: to realistically match up with this Ole Miss squad. 824 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 2: So which is why we use the term Winter Wonders, 825 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 2: which is why we use the term that like you 826 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 2: are needing to count on specific playmakers if it's a 827 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 2: tight game, if it's a game where where you just 828 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 2: need to take it seriously enough, and you have players 829 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 2: on your roster, whether it's you know, Oregon, Ole Miss, 830 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,479 Speaker 2: or any of these teams that you get to see 831 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 2: them against overmatch teams, you're like, it's just a speed thing. 832 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 2: It's just a it's not a desire thing, it's not 833 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 2: a fundamentals thing. It is just this is a much 834 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,240 Speaker 2: better football player thing that Ole Miss had that Tulane didn't. 835 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 2: And sometimes these schools have those dudes, and it just 836 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 2: didn't happen uh to occur this afternoon tonight in these games. 837 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 1: You mentioned this, But h Ole Miss is going to 838 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 1: scare off now against Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. This 839 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: is the game on New Year's Day, eight pm start time, 840 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: as you used to with the Sugar Bowl. It is 841 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 1: a rematch of a game that we saw in Athens, Georgia, 842 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 1: one that won forty three to thirty five back on 843 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 1: October the eighteenth. I suffice to say, probably a bit 844 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 1: of a coaching advantage in the favor of Kirby spart 845 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 1: and the George Bulldogs. But Ole missus dangerous team. If 846 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: they play like this, for whatever you make of this game, 847 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: if they play like this, they're dangerous. And we saw 848 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: that the first time around. It was a very tight affair. 849 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,239 Speaker 1: Curious to see what it looks like now again, All 850 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: stage Sugar Bowl, your traditional start time at eight PM game. 851 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 2: That game, by the way, was an overwhelming Gunner Stockton performance, 852 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 2: who was like shaky a little bit at times to 853 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 2: start the season, and what he was able to do 854 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 2: against ole Miss in that one obviously sort of foreshadowed 855 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 2: what the back half of his season look like. I 856 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 2: guess the only thing ole Miss may have going for it. 857 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 2: I mean, look, it has a lot going for it. 858 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 2: Ole Miss has a what we nobody knew would be 859 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,280 Speaker 2: an excellent quarterback coming in in relief of Austin Simmons, 860 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 2: and Trinidad Chambliss and Kewan Lacy stepped up all season long, 861 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 2: the defense seemed to improve. There's a lot going for 862 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 2: ole Miss more broadly speaking, but because you mentioned the 863 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:57,359 Speaker 2: coaching advantage, there is a mysterious quality right that ole 864 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,919 Speaker 2: Miss has in peak holding. Kirby Smart doesn't have experience 865 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 2: coaching against Pete Golding completely an experienced coach. Right, So 866 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 2: in terms of tendency, in terms of game planning, obviously 867 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 2: the coordinators are the same, but what the rhythm is like, 868 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 2: what might be different in a huge game like an 869 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,240 Speaker 2: old Miss Georgia rematch. There might be some mystery that's 870 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 2: me reaching to be clear, but that is it is 871 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 2: a different experience for Kirby Smart that he might not 872 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 2: be able to lean on, Like this is what Lane 873 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 2: Kiffin is going to lean on. 874 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: We are content creators and sometimes we need to create 875 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: the content. So we'll see, we'll see, we will get 876 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 1: to that again. We're going to do our quarterfinal preview. 877 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 2: Did you see lang Kin and tweeting zeeding on ex 878 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 2: cole in the Everything app during the game, He basically 879 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 2: said he was He was tweeting like, hey man, why 880 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 2: can't we just root for both of these teams? Just 881 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 2: not the week that they play each other, Like let's 882 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 2: all be friends. Okay, man, you chose to leave, all right, 883 00:46:58,440 --> 00:46:59,919 Speaker 2: that's all. 884 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,320 Speaker 1: Can I ask a favor of you? You can. I 885 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 1: don't know if I'm gonna fulfill it, but all you 886 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: can ask. I desperately want a dramatic drive reading oh 887 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 1: Man for the Miami Texas A and m game. Oh, 888 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: you want it after the fact. I want it after 889 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: the fact. I feel the people demand it. I feel 890 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 1: the people deserve it. This game, I think, above all 891 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: the others that we saw on this weekend and especially 892 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: the last couple weekends of the season, is a game 893 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 1: that warrants that type of treatment. 894 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 2: So Miami had the potentially worst first half of offense 895 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,840 Speaker 2: in collegeot ball playoff history. I saw that somewhere. Yeah, 896 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,800 Speaker 2: sixty some odd yards. Okay, So the drive chart for Miami, 897 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,839 Speaker 2: Texas A and m ten three final. 898 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 3: Punts, punt, fumble, punt, punt, punt, kickoff, punt punt, missfield 899 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 3: goal downs, miss field goal, field goal interception, miss field 900 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:02,280 Speaker 3: goal punt, punt, field goal, fumble, punt, touchdown interception. 901 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 1: And you timed it perfectly. You got right to like 902 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: the crescendo, and you say end of game. 903 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 2: It says kickoff on this drive chart, and that doesn't 904 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 2: make any sense. So I'm not sure what was going 905 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:22,720 Speaker 2: on there. But okay, my final thought here. 906 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:29,839 Speaker 1: Relates to a debate that I believe is going to rage, long, deep, 907 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: painfully into the offseason, and that is about G five 908 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 1: teams in the playoff. Okay, So look, you know where 909 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: I stand on this. I've been pretty vocal about it. 910 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,239 Speaker 1: I think it's a matter of principle. If you are 911 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 1: going to say that all of these teams are in 912 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 1: the same subdivision, everyone should have a pathway to get 913 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,800 Speaker 1: into the playoff. I think that's a matter of principle. 914 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: I think that's very straightforward. Not saying autobids, I'm just 915 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,400 Speaker 1: saying a pathway in. Okay. I may have changed my 916 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 1: tune a little bit, but I believe that there needs 917 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 1: to be a realistic pathway so that everybody can be represented. 918 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 1: Otherwise you need to split them off, come up with 919 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 1: some other situation. 920 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,440 Speaker 2: Sure, you can't call them FBS, right, you can't call 921 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 2: an FBS playoff. 922 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 1: Right, come up with something between FBS and FCS. And 923 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 1: that's where G five lives. Okay. You got to get 924 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 1: them to agree to it. You got to make sure 925 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 1: that the money is right, but that that would be 926 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,879 Speaker 1: sort of the off ramp here. And I know people 927 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 1: have been screaming at us for the last week. Like, 928 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 1: I sent you a plan, here's my plan. I will 929 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,400 Speaker 1: read through all your plans. Okay, I appreciate it. I 930 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: appreciate that there is different opinions on this matter. People 931 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 1: feel passionately. I appreciate that, So thank you for emailing 932 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 1: in Soliverble at gmail dot com. If you have a 933 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 1: plan that you'd like to send in Soliverble at gmail 934 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:53,520 Speaker 1: dot com. 935 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to text Tie directly six to one, Oh, 936 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 2: continue Tie. 937 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 1: I believe out of Prince there should be a pathway in. Okay, 938 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,920 Speaker 1: I don't care if it makes for lousy television. I 939 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 1: don't care if it makes for lopsided point spreads. I 940 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: don't even care if it's at the expense of the 941 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: team that I root for. If you're going to say 942 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 1: that everybody belongs in this subdivision, then everybody in the 943 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: subdivision should have a chance to play in the playoff 944 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 1: for the big trophy. That seems logical to me. That said, 945 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:33,839 Speaker 1: what happened this weekend was a very very bad turn 946 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 1: of events for that perspective. 947 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 2: Okay, well, I mean, Jamie, you lost by seventeen. It 948 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:38,760 Speaker 2: lost by seventeen. 949 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,759 Speaker 1: They put up thirty four an organ The game was 950 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:45,120 Speaker 1: kind of over before it got started. But okay, yeah, 951 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,200 Speaker 1: it was just a very bad day for that point 952 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 1: of view. So I don't know where the conversation goes next. 953 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 1: My hunch is that it's never going to end this offseason. 954 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 1: We're going to hear a lot about this. Whatever they 955 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 1: decide to do with the new playoff system, whether it's 956 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 1: go to sixteen or fourteen or God help us twenty four, 957 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: whatever it ends up being. All I'm asking for is 958 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: a realistic path for teams like Tulane and like James 959 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: Madison to still find their way in. I don't want 960 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,040 Speaker 1: to throw the baby out with the bathwater. These were 961 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 1: two terrible results if you watch the game. I mean, 962 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 1: I don't care what the final score is with the 963 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 1: Oregon JMU game. That game was over. The game was 964 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 1: over in the first half. Yeah, I don't think we 965 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: should look at these results and base all of our 966 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 1: future movement based solely on what happened today. I don't 967 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 1: think that's fair. But I will acknowledge this is not 968 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: a good look, and it very much was a situation 969 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: where he had two games that were just uncompetitive. They 970 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:59,320 Speaker 1: just weren't. They weren't competitive. And yeah, I don't know 971 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: if it means ban of sixteen, and then whichever G 972 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 1: five teams get in, they play the top seeds in 973 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 1: the tournament that type of deal. I don't know. I 974 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 1: don't know what the plan is, but I am not 975 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,399 Speaker 1: all that excited to hear where the discourse goes next, 976 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: because I think it's just going to be very loud. 977 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of proud Power Conference fans 978 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 1: out there who are saying that these teams don't belong 979 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: and shouldn't play They're playing a different sport. I've heard 980 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 1: that about a thousand different people, and even though it 981 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 1: wasn't competitive, I don't fully agree with that. I just 982 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: I hope whatever they do next, they're not going to 983 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: cut them out entirely, because I think that would be 984 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 1: that'd be lousy. 985 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:43,240 Speaker 2: Including Joe Tessitur Sean McDonough. Yeah, it was like, okay, guys, 986 00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:45,879 Speaker 2: we should talk about this. Let's be real, Like why 987 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:46,839 Speaker 2: are you talking about this? 988 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 1: I hear you. 989 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:53,239 Speaker 2: I'm with you. You know how I feel about this. 990 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:59,399 Speaker 2: I just think this is a uniquely college football problem 991 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:01,959 Speaker 2: that the way it's laid out or not laid out, 992 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 2: or governed or not governed, just creates this oxygen for 993 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:12,799 Speaker 2: like bile to get through in the discussion of all 994 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 2: of this that I think people feel. And it's not 995 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 2: just SEC people, it's not just big ten people, it's 996 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 2: not just power conference people. But people feel this need 997 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 2: to puff out their chest and like put down like 998 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 2: the smaller guy, because they're like, you don't. We are different. 999 00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 2: We are in rare air, and it's embarrassing for us 1000 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:38,400 Speaker 2: to play against and be associated with you. It doesn't 1001 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 2: happen in the NFL when like the New York Giants 1002 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 2: lose by forty five in a playoff, how. 1003 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 1: Dare you talk about my giants? 1004 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:47,560 Speaker 2: Like the only reason I say that is because I 1005 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 2: looked up the biggest NFL playoff blowouts of all time. 1006 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:51,879 Speaker 2: Like there's a lot of giants in here. 1007 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, there there really is. 1008 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 2: Jeff Hosteler really Struggleiz. 1009 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,719 Speaker 1: You should watch them all year like I did. Been 1010 00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 1: a great year anyway. 1011 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 2: But what I'm saying is like we didn't have that 1012 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety three about like the NFC East is 1013 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 2: an embarrassment, right because they're all under the umbrella of FBS, 1014 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 2: They're all under the umbrella of the NFL. Right, we 1015 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 2: have blowouts in sports. I want to say that there 1016 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:17,320 Speaker 2: was probably a year where I think the Utah Jazz 1017 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,520 Speaker 2: beat the Bulls by like fifty eight points in an 1018 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 2: NBA Finals game. Nobody freaked out. People understand blowouts happen, 1019 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 2: and so I just I feel as if there's so 1020 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 2: much pride about conference and affiliation because we have been 1021 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 2: made to feel like the Big Ten is so crazy 1022 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 2: impressive now that it's added, you know, the West Coast 1023 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 2: schools and it's this huge thing, and the SEC is 1024 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,720 Speaker 2: so impressive, and literally commercials say. 1025 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 3: It means more. 1026 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: It means so much more. 1027 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,880 Speaker 2: When you add Texas and Oklahoma. You have these mega 1028 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 2: conferences with these huge schools who've done so many impressive, 1029 00:54:55,719 --> 00:55:00,879 Speaker 2: legitimately crazy impressive things that you do start getting that 1030 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 2: what we talked about, like the country club experience. 1031 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 1: We are like, you don't belong with us, You're not. 1032 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:09,840 Speaker 2: It's just you're you should have You should start. 1033 00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 1: Your own club. 1034 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,240 Speaker 2: That would be a really good move for you, guys. 1035 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,359 Speaker 2: I love to start your own tournament. You could put 1036 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 2: it on True TV, you could sell it to to B. Right, 1037 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 2: is that a thing? I think twov is a thing? 1038 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 2: T ub Y is it a thing? T U b 1039 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 2: I is it TBI? 1040 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:29,839 Speaker 1: Excuse me? Yeah? 1041 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 2: Right, there's this like dismissive nature, like why don't you guys, 1042 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 2: like there's a public park that will host you in 1043 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 2: your tournament of small teams, And I just I don't know. 1044 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,440 Speaker 2: I find the whole thing to be so disingenuous dumb, like, 1045 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 2: yes there are blowouts, Yes there are better teams and 1046 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 2: worse teams, and we can all make peace with the 1047 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,359 Speaker 2: fact that, like a Wimbledon final might be six oh 1048 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 2: six to one, and that's okay. The person who loses 1049 00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 2: that that tournament should be allowed to play in the 1050 00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,759 Speaker 2: US Open. And it's just I don't know, it's this 1051 00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,440 Speaker 2: weird thing, like you can look like, should Minnesota be 1052 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:03,920 Speaker 2: able to stay in the Big ten? You want to 1053 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 2: look at some of their scores from this year, but 1054 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 2: there's like this automatic reflex to be like, you are 1055 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 2: not of our kind, and I don't know. It's it's 1056 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:16,440 Speaker 2: very strange. And this year had two smaller conference teams 1057 00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 2: in it because Miami couldn't beat SMU or Louisville and 1058 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 2: get to the ACC championship game and just become an 1059 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:28,759 Speaker 2: automatic qualifier for this conference. Because Duke beat Clemson and 1060 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,440 Speaker 2: scored forty six, beating club, there's all sorts of reasons 1061 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,959 Speaker 2: Notre Dame's not in this tournament. Like, there's all sorts 1062 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 2: of reasons why we had this like very rare situation 1063 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,720 Speaker 2: in which we have these two teams in and people 1064 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 2: can't just say, like, oh, what a weird year. This 1065 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 2: likely will never happen again. They have their digital pitchforks 1066 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,040 Speaker 2: out like this is embarrassing for this. 1067 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 1: Well, and the truth is it won't happen again. They 1068 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:51,799 Speaker 1: won't let it. 1069 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 2: Of course. They won't want to do is change it 1070 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 2: to advantage the already most advantaged, and they'll do it again. 1071 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 2: It won't happen again. 1072 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 1: I mean. The pressure point that I think we will 1073 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 1: hear the most about soonest is the a SEC tiebreaker. 1074 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 1: The a SEC tiebreaker, which this year it's probably already changed, 1075 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:17,800 Speaker 1: used conference opponent winning percentage instead of CFP rankings to 1076 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 1: put a team like Duke ahead of Miami. They will 1077 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:24,960 Speaker 1: change that so that moving forward to school like Miami 1078 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 1: or whoever in Florida State, maybe Virginia Tech, somebody gets 1079 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 1: in via that tiebreaker as opposed to what they had 1080 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 1: this year. Doing so would have had Miami, Notre Dame 1081 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 1: and Alabama in all likelihood in the college football playoff. 1082 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,880 Speaker 1: I think that's the first thing you see. But looming 1083 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 1: large now, kind of in the backdrop, is this push 1084 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:49,919 Speaker 1: to amend the model, come up with a different way. 1085 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,640 Speaker 1: We've heard talks about this now for the last year 1086 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 1: or so, and I look, we've heard Pete Bavaqua. Whatever 1087 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,479 Speaker 1: you think of Pete Bavaqua's comments on the Notre Dame front, 1088 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:03,439 Speaker 1: we've heard him are a great guy, We've heard We've 1089 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 1: heard him talk about going up to sixteen. We've heard 1090 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 1: others talk about going up to six. Tony Petiti wants 1091 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 1: to go up to like forty eight. I don't know, buddy. 1092 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 2: We've already changed the framework of this to get Notre 1093 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,240 Speaker 2: Dame automatic, I know, which. 1094 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 1: I also hate. I also hate that. I don't like 1095 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 1: that at all. Right, But my only point with all 1096 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: this is I understand that this is a very bad 1097 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:28,400 Speaker 1: look for the G five. Understand it. It's not all 1098 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,360 Speaker 1: that unexpected. I get where people are coming from. I 1099 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: understand the argument. I just don't agree with it. And 1100 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:37,640 Speaker 1: I hope that whichever direction this goes next, they do 1101 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:40,400 Speaker 1: not cut the G five out entirely. If you want 1102 00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 1: to modify the pathway, so be it just make sure 1103 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 1: there is a realistic pathway and not just a dog 1104 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: and pony show. 1105 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,040 Speaker 2: I you know, I agree, Ty, you know I agree. 1106 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 2: Why don't you have a little tournament on dailymotion dot com? 1107 00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:01,680 Speaker 2: Why don't you take your little Mountain West Sunbelt altercation 1108 00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 2: to daily Motion? Does that still exist? I? 1109 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1110 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 2: I don't think daily Motion is killable. I think it's 1111 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 2: gonna be here, it's gonna outlive off us all. Come on, Ty, yeah, 1112 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,960 Speaker 2: it's it's very strange, but it's not unexpected. 1113 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,640 Speaker 1: Why don't we leave it there? Don't forget if you 1114 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: made it this far, hit follow hit subscribes that you 1115 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:27,080 Speaker 1: do not miss any of our episodes.
