Sure, we 24 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: could really go a number of different directions, because look, 25 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 2: I'm looking at the week seventh slate. I've got it 26 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: in front of me. There are games of interest. 27 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: That's what we do. We're interested in course football. Obviously, 28 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: people listening to this are clearly interested in what goes on. 29 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: But as compared to each of the last two weeks, 30 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: as compared to some of the weeks that are yet 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: to come, yeah, that it lacks a little bit of 32 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 1: that headlining star power. 33 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: I think what was the movie the nineties Coming of 34 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: age teen movie with Rachel Lee Cook where her she's 35 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 2: wearing glasses. 36 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: And like, oh, she's horrifically ugly, and then she takes 37 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: off the glasses and she's beautiful. What is that movie? 38 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: Not Ringing with Freddy Prince Junior? What not ring? She's 39 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: coming down? Oh my god. 40 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,559 Speaker 2: Okay, now I have to look this up live on 41 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 2: the show. Rachel Lee Cook glasses movie, She's all that Saturday. 42 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: It's an s She's all that Saturday. She's all that Saturday. Okay, 43 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if you have time to pull down 44 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: sixpence none the richer, but sixpence none the richer Saturday. 45 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 2: But at first glance, it's kind of an unimpressive weekend 46 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 2: because I think we're looking at the week through the lens. 47 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: See that what I'm saying here of the top of 48 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: the sport, like, oh, we don't have Alabama Iowa, they're 49 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 2: not we don't have Georgia Michigan, Like we don't have 50 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 2: those matchups. Okay, but just peel back the curtain a 51 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: little bit, tie and realize that there's a beautiful looking 52 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: weekend of college football coming down the stairs. 53 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: It was a movie, She's All That is about a bet. 54 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: That two guys make that one guy could make for it. 55 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: So I think it's Freddy Prince Junior and Paul Walker 56 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 2: look it up that they could make this girl popular. 57 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: And I don't know. 58 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 2: She comes down the stairs and she's beautiful because it's 59 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: Rachel Lee Cook, a beautiful woman, And I think. 60 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: That's what we have. I think we have a beautiful 61 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: Saturday ahead of us. She's all that Saturday, a beautiful Saturday. 62 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: Maybe we just can't see it yet, Dan, Right, And 63 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: as is typically the case when you and I do this, show. 64 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: Oftentimes we don't see it until Sunday morning. We don't 65 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: see it until Saturday night, when you and I are 66 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: feverishly writ and back and forth to each other, what 67 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: the hell just happened? That was the case last week. 68 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: We thought last week was going to be a banger 69 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: of a week, and we still didn't give it its 70 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: due in advance. Totally. There's no way we could have 71 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: known that Alabama was going to lose in the manner 72 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,839 Speaker 1: that it did. And look, college football is great. Week 73 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: seven is great. We're very excited to be here with 74 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: you talking through another week of college football games. Don't 75 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: forget four O eight Verbal one is the reverblind. We 76 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: got a ton of feedback. The reverbs were cathartic for 77 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: a number of different fan bases after what we saw 78 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: in week six. Hopefully you can have that effect in 79 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: week seven. Our boy Dylan continues to do a marvelous 80 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: job mixing those together. Yes, oh you found it. Yeah 81 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: you're hearing it. I hear it. 82 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if it's being recorded, but we'll 83 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: get it in there. 84 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: We'll get it in there somehow. Yes, Yeah, shall we 85 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: get started. I would love to again til the week 86 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: Week seven, Zibin. 87 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: How do you say in Spanish sea porta supuesto sequesta. 88 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. No, no porta supuesto means, of course, 89 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: port sequesta, thank you, soupquesto porta soupuesto. Week seven upon 90 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: us and before we go any further, I think the 91 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: window of opportunity for you is late. I think if 92 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: you're looking to have a night out on the town, 93 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: I think late is a really good opportunity for you. 94 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: This week, Week seven, again, not a whole lot of 95 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: headlining power, at least not that meets the eye, at 96 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: least not as we're recording this on Tuesday. Things can 97 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: change quickly as they did last week. But from my 98 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: ivory tower here of podcasting, I would say, go out 99 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: and do something at night, or do something during the 100 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: day if you want to. You can soon to make 101 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: your own window if you want to. But I say 102 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: go out at night. 103 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 2: I think the night is gonna get rowdy, you see, 104 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: I'm in on the night. 105 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: Yeah. 106 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: I think if you are building your day tie brick 107 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 2: by building that day one brick by one brick, I 108 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: think you have to include the night. I think the 109 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 2: middle of those afternooners at three thirty eastern PM. Window 110 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 2: is lacking. But I look at the night tie. I 111 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 2: look at nighttime. I see Iowa State Kansas State home dog, 112 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 2: home dog, Kansas State. I see BC home dog against 113 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: NC State tight line. I see UCLA Washington tight line. 114 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: I see Starkville hosting out a reeling Alabama tight not tight? 115 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: Are you are you canceling your date night so that 116 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: you can watch NC State BC? Oh? 117 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 2: Tye, you know I'm not half in with the halfway. 118 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: I'm all in, Yes, absolutely, I am. 119 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 120 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: Come on, baby, you're gonna be dancing on the streets 121 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: of the brookline of Allston Chestnut Hill. Come on, Tye, 122 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 2: I think the night looks fun TCU Oklahoma we start 123 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: what defense is? 124 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: TC? 125 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 2: You're gonna play in that game? Come on, you know 126 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: that's gonna be that they haven't already so many versions. 127 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm ready for that. Night time. 128 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 2: The night time is the right time this Saturday again, 129 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: build your day, settle down the night, settle down. 130 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: I'm going out at night. I'm doing something at night. 131 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: Look at you, you romantic. We are starting off this week, 132 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: week seven with two teams that I can't predict I'm 133 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: just comically bad with these teams. I don't know what 134 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: it is. Oklahoma State is five and oh, they're up 135 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: to twelfth, I think, based mostly on the string to 136 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: their defense, which has been very good, legitimately very good, 137 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: taking the show on the road to Austin. Texas is 138 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: now four and two. They're twenty fifth in the latest 139 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: AP poll, and that's based mostly on the strength of 140 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: its offense, which is also very good, legitimately very good. 141 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: Just a little bit better on defense, and they probably 142 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: win that game against Oklahoma from a week ago. But nonetheless, 143 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: we've got Oklahoma State at Texas twelve pm Eastern Time 144 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: on the Fox Network. Daniel is per usual. You know, 145 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: I just I have a couple questions for you. I 146 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: want to ask you a bunch of questions, no one 147 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: to have them answered immediately. So Texas is favored by 148 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: four and a half five points here depends where you look. Yeah, 149 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: does that surprise you at all? No? Why? 150 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 2: Since Casey Thompson took over at quarterback. This is how 151 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 2: many points teams have needed to score against Texas to 152 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: beat Texas sixty seventy one, thirty three and forty nine. 153 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: Oklahoma needed forty nine. They got fifty five to beat Texas? 154 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: How many times? And the lowest number there is thirty three. Now, 155 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 2: I understand Oklahoma State has a better defense than Rice, 156 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: Texas Tech Tco in Oklahoma, But how many times has 157 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State scored thirty three points this season against an 158 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: FBS opponent? I believe the answer be zero, zero times, 159 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: zero times. This is a team led by its defense, 160 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 2: which is an incredible thing, especially upfront. Oklahoma State is 161 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 2: very good on defense and a challenge offered, you know, 162 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 2: maybe Arkansas, but we've you know, we've seen some low 163 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 2: points with Arkansas recently giving up fifty two right to 164 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 2: Ole Miss. So my question to you is, what is 165 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 2: it about the Oklahoma State full team? A team that 166 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 2: on offense goes three and out more often than any 167 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 2: Big twelve team other than Kansas. Now, I know you 168 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 2: mentioned the health situation. They were beat up at receiver 169 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 2: early on in the season. But whatever, we're bathing in 170 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: the reality that Oklahoma State's offense has gotten worse every 171 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: year since twenty eighteen. Are you that confident that Texas's 172 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: defense is bad? Are you that confident that Texas is 173 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 2: too prone to fits and starts on offense. I think 174 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 2: we are undervaluing Texas at this moment because I think 175 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 2: you need to score thirty five points to beat Texas. Now, 176 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 2: we had the weird matchup last year where Texas wins 177 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 2: the game and doing everything they can to lose the game. 178 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: But I just don't know where the points are coming 179 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: from this as in an Oklahoma they in every phase 180 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: on offense, they're struggling with consistency. 181 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: They are so they are. 182 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 2: While like the defense, I think the offense is going 183 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: to hang out the polk defense to dry. They'll get 184 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: some because the Texas defense is vulnerable. That's my issue 185 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: right now is I think there is just that certain 186 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 2: threshold that Oklahoma State can't meet and Texas at home 187 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: at home will make plays. So I have this at 188 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 2: like thirty eight to twenty seven Texas. 189 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand a lot. I struggled with this game. 190 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: I really did. And offensively, look offensively, the numbers hate 191 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. They hate them. The efficiency metrics are downright 192 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: offended by what they see from Oklahoma State so far 193 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 1: through that lens of efficiency. If we want to keep 194 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: it there, they're bad through the air, they're worse on 195 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: the ground. I do wonder though, if the numbers are 196 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: a bit misleading. And here's the only reason why. Here's 197 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: the catch, and this is why I think I'm gonna 198 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: go points here. They had a game a few weeks 199 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: ago when they got I think it was Tay Martin 200 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: back out wide, and the offense immediately got better. Now, 201 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: for as bad as Oklahoma State has been scored second. 202 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: Half points in that game, did they score second half 203 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: points in that game? 204 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: No? I don't believe they did. Okay. 205 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 2: And also the thirty one point game, was it Kansas 206 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 2: State where they scored thirty one? I don't know if 207 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 2: you have their results in front of you. Yeah, they 208 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 2: scored thirty one against Kansastate. That includes a zero yard 209 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 2: touchdown falling on a fumble in the end zone. So 210 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 2: it was twenty four. 211 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: Offensive points in that matchup. Continue. Sorry, All I'm saying 212 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: is that Oklahoma State has been very banged up on offense. 213 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 1: I think that has contributed to some of that inconsistency. 214 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: It does not excuse all of it. I have my 215 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: questions as well. What I like about Oklahoma State is 216 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: the defense. Now, is Oklahoma State the what twelfth best 217 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: team in the country, legit twelfth best. No, they're not, 218 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: probably not, they're not. They're a half team. They've got 219 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 1: a very good defense. It is legitimately good. It's a 220 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: top ten defense in the country. The one constant with 221 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State is that the defense surprises me every week. 222 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: The Boise game on the road, the Baylor game two 223 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: weeks ago. The defense is pulling the weight for this offense. 224 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: And you could definitely make the case, as you did 225 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: a few minutes ago, this is clearly far and away 226 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: the best defense that Texas has played all year. So 227 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: I think for that reason I'm taking points here. I 228 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: don't have a great reason to go one way or 229 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: the other. I did struggle with this. I also wonder 230 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: if there's a little bit of a letdown effect here 231 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: for Texas after that rivalry game. They had to feel 232 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: like they had that one in hand and to lose it, 233 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: to just give it away, what eighteen point lead, seventeen 234 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: point lead, whatever it was down the stretch, that's a 235 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: bit deflating. So I would not be surprised at all 236 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: if Texas comes out a bit flat. Oklahoma State had 237 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: a week off to get ready for this game. I 238 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: think they will again be a force on defense as 239 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: they have been all year. Texas. Again, they've played one 240 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: good defense all year, and that was Arkansas back in 241 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: Week two, and they scored different quarterback, different quarterback, different quarterback. 242 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: They scored twenty points. Yeah, I could see him winning 243 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: this game by a field goal. But I'm really confused 244 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: by the point spread. I don't get it. It just 245 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: feels off to me. That game was also on the road, 246 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: by the way, against it was on the road. It 247 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: Austin yep. I get the sense that you're very confident 248 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: in Texas, and that's good. That makes one of us. 249 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go points here, Oklahoma State plus four 250 00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: and a half. 251 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 2: Five do you wager actual dollars? Absolute points? 252 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: Never in a millionaires, never in a millionaires. Good, good, 253 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: authentic pick then ty No, I'm being serious here before. 254 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: This is a headlining game this week. It is two 255 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: ranked teams. It is meaningful in the Big twelve. We 256 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: had to mention it at the very top because no, no, 257 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: on the schedule, I'm not at all confident, is there? 258 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: Like would you go with the under? Would you go over? 259 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: Would you take? Let me stay away in this game? 260 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: Like it was the play. 261 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 2: Okay, I like Texas. I'm I'm leaning into my enthusiasm 262 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: this year. Ty, you know that about me? 263 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: I am too when I have genuine enthusiasm. I just 264 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: do not have it for this game. 265 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 2: Well. I mean, they scored a ton of points last week. 266 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 2: They scored fifty points right against Oklahoma. That's a lot 267 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: of points. And I understand. Look, they have that flash 268 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 2: friability that they can jump out to that big lead 269 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: where Sark game plans really really well. And if Texas 270 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 2: jumps out to even a twenty to seven lead, it's 271 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 2: twenty to three, twenty to ten. Like, do you see 272 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State throwing themselves back into this game over? 273 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: No, it's hard to see. Yeah, so it's over. Yeah, 274 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: I'm going going horns here, buddy, three point thirty CBS. 275 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: We've got Kentucky number eleven. Kentucky dow undefeated on the 276 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: road at number one. Georgia. Georgia is favored by twenty 277 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: three and a half points, which is a big old number. 278 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: Dean as a big freaking number. Georgia's won the last 279 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: eleven meetings here. They also haven't shown much weakness, right, 280 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: if we're being honest, certainly not on the defensive side 281 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: of the ball. They've given up two touchdowns all season 282 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: outside of that Clemson game in Week one. Their closest 283 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: win was by twenty four on the road against Auburn. 284 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: So they've been very good Kentucky for what it's worth, again, 285 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: six and zero, they've looked good. They beat Florida two 286 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: weeks ago, So let me start there. I'm ready more 287 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: questions for you. I want to ask you a bunch 288 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: of questions. I want to have them answered immediately. Nobody 289 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: scored more than thirteen against Georgia all season. Yeah, can 290 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: Kentucky get to fourteen? 291 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 2: Yes, we'll involve a back door lay, you know, garbage 292 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: time touched on it, potentially, potentially, If you were to 293 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 2: underthink this game, how would you do it? If you 294 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 2: were to underthink picking and visualizing the result of this game, 295 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 2: how would you underthink it. 296 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: If I were to underthink it, I would say that 297 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: nobody's been anywhere close to Georgia outside of that first week, 298 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: which was weird to begin with, and underthinking you just 299 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: lay the number and you go with Georgia because they 300 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: are impenetrable on defense, right. 301 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, My underthinking is seeing a version perhaps an old 302 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 2: version of Will Levis against this Georgia defense. You're like, 303 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 2: oh man, that could get ugly. This was and I'm 304 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: not afraid to talk about it. Every week, and sometimes 305 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 2: when it has nothing to do with the show, I 306 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: will lay down on the floor of this little office 307 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 2: studio that I have. I'll put a little like throw 308 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 2: pillow under my head and I'll stare at the ceiling 309 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 2: like the woman in Queen's Gambit seeing the chess moves 310 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 2: on watch that show story it is one hundred percent real, 311 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 2: hundred percent real. 312 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: Are you taking the green pills before you look at 313 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: the ceiling? 314 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 2: No? 315 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: No, no, okay. 316 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: I lay on whenever I need to think of ideas, 317 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 2: whenever I need to think through a big life decision. 318 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: Sometimes I just lay on the floor and stare up 319 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: at the ceiling and try to visualize. 320 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: Okay, And so this was. 321 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: The game this week. I was staring at my computer. 322 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 2: I was staring at numbers, I was watching clips, I 323 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 2: was looking at rhythms of games whatever. When I was 324 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: thinking through how I could see this game going, and 325 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 2: I legitimately I stared up at the ceiling and I 326 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 2: tried to figure it out. I'm gonna take the points 327 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 2: in this game. Okay, I'm gonna take the points in 328 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: this game because I think Kentucky does enough well. The 329 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 2: teams that Georgia has blown out and comfortably beaten have 330 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 2: been pretty flawed in a couple of different places, right, 331 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 2: Like South Carolina has been a nightmare. Now, Kentucky kind 332 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: of only got by South Carolina. It wasn't an amazing performance, 333 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 2: whereas Georgia beat him by what twenty seven? Right, that 334 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 2: was that he was forty to thirteen. So what I 335 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 2: think ultimately Kentucky's competence floor has me thinking they can 336 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: lose this game by seventeen to twenty points and cover that. 337 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 2: I think they can make a play. They have what 338 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 2: one of the best three receivers in the conference in 339 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 2: Wandeale Robinson right yep, like an absolute stud playmaker who 340 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 2: can turn twelve into eighty against anybody. So I think 341 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: there's the potential of with a pretty good defense, with 342 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 2: a running game that's popping well, with an offensive coordinator 343 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 2: who's been able to scheme receivers open and find weaknesses 344 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 2: in defense, that Kentucky can give Georgia a little bit 345 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 2: to worry about, especially like we know stets and bended 346 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 2: is pretty good, but he's not one of the best 347 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the country. He's good, right, He's maybe the 348 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 2: best backup quarterback in the country right now. 349 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: I just think. 350 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 2: Georgia is really, really good and they're playing a pretty 351 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 2: good team in Kentucky, and I am again going to 352 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 2: lean in to my enthusiasm. I'm enthusiastic about Kentucky football, 353 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 2: and I think this is very well. I'm enthusiastic about him. 354 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 2: I think they lose thirty five sixteen, you know, like 355 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 2: that's where I'm standing right now, where just it's all 356 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 2: relative against this Georgia defense. I think Will Levis will 357 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 2: struggle throwing into the teeth of this defense on third 358 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 2: and eight in situations like that. I think they'll struggle 359 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 2: in the red zone. I just think Kentucky is for 360 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 2: real as a relatively dangerous team. 361 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. It's a lot of points. I'm 362 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: with you. There is definitely an impulse to say Kentucky 363 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: beat Florida. And we're just a week removed from Alabama 364 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: losing as an eighteen point favorite, right so it's the 365 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: year of chaos. Maybe Kentucky can shock the world for 366 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 1: what it's worth. Bill Connelly has those odds at fourteen percent. 367 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: Not great, clearly not a likely scenario. But I agree 368 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: with you. I think Kentucky's for real as well. And 369 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: I too looked to signs from the universe to try 370 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: and figure this one out. Yeah, because I saw the 371 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,959 Speaker 1: number and I was offended by the number, like, how 372 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: would they do this? How could they do this to Kentucky. 373 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: So I took my beautiful white puppy out for a 374 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: walk yesterday and it was a little wet outside, and 375 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: she trampled through some mud and we came inside before 376 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: I had an opportunity to clean the paws off, right, 377 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: anybody who owns a dog has been in that situation. 378 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: He got a little muddy paws out throughout the house. 379 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: And so I thought to myself, hmm, can Kentucky muddy 380 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: this up enough and make it a ground game and 381 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: keep the score down? And I think they can do that. 382 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: This feels like too many points. I recognize that Georgia 383 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: maybe getting into that maybe old school Alabama territory now 384 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: where the point spreads feel too high and then after 385 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: the fact they all feel too low. But for what 386 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: it's worth, Georgia wouldn't have covered this spread in either 387 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: of the last three meetings. It was fourteen to three 388 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: a year ago. So I have in the sense that 389 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: Stoops is gonna be able to keep the score down, 390 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: He's gonna muddy the game up, He's gonna try to 391 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: slow it down. I want to pick Kentucky. So I'm 392 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: gonna pick Kentucky. I just want to pick them. I 393 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: want to be on the side of Will the Thrill, 394 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: on the same side as Wan Dale, of Chris the Jet, 395 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: Rodriguez of the Smoke Monster, like twenty eight to ten Georgia. 396 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: Final answer. Yeah. 397 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: The things I like about Kentucky specifically, they keep chains moving. 398 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 2: They're eleventh in the country at avoiding three and outs 399 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 2: on offense and pretty good on defense at forcing them. 400 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: They're terrific and preventing big plays. And this has not 401 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: been a big play Georgia offense. This has been you know, 402 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 2: steady rushing and then eventually finding some plays over the top. 403 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 2: The thing that concerns me about Kentucky is the turnovers. Yeah, 404 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 2: they are. Their turnover margin is Godaffel. So that terrifies 405 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 2: me that a relatively hanging around ten to three situation 406 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 2: can become twenty four to three quickly with a couple 407 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 2: of really bad looks and bad decisions. So I'm still 408 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 2: going to take those points because I'm leaning into enthusiasm. 409 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: But I also understand that underthinking this game means Will 410 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 2: levis throwing into the Georgia defense. That's what underthinking agree. 411 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: Okay, seven point thirty sec Network number thirteen. Ole Miss 412 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: is a three and a half point favorite at Tennessee. 413 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: Now this this is an interesting game. This is an 414 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: interesting game. Ole Miss won the shootout with Arkansas a 415 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: week ago because Arkansas couldn't convert the two point conversion. 416 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: Could talk about that one until we are blue in 417 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: the face. What we haven't done is talk much about Tennessee, 418 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: which is kind of a shame. We've alluded to the 419 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 1: fact that we're very interested in Tennessee, that got our 420 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: eye on Tennessee or high on what they've been doing, 421 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: but we haven't had a whole lot of reason to 422 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 1: talk about it until this very game. So here's the 423 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: lay of the land on the vallves four and two. 424 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: Their losses are to pit in a game that they 425 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: could have won, and to Florida in a game that 426 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: they could not have won. They lost by twenty four, 427 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: but it was close at the half. Close as the half. 428 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: The sp plus has them as number fourteen in the country. 429 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: They're top twenty five in terms of offense, in terms 430 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 1: of defense, in terms of special teams, They're pretty solid 431 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: across the board. The numbers are painting a picture of consistency, 432 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: which is great if you're a Tennessee fan. Even if 433 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: the wins aren't all there, just any level of consistency, 434 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: I think you'll take. Give it where you've come from. 435 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: Hendon Hooker's been a fricking revelation. I was screaming to 436 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: anybody that would listen at the start of the year. 437 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: I'm sure they did not give a damn about what 438 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 1: I had to say. But they tried Joe Milton. That 439 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: didn't really work. I think he got hurt. They put 440 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: in Hendon Hooker. Hendon Hookers completed about seventy percent of 441 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: his passes. His touchdown interception ratio is thirteen to one, 442 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: so he's been very good. He's been very good at 443 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: running the ball. Defensively solid as well. I think they're 444 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: gonna have trouble against the pass in this game, which 445 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: is something that maybe we can talk about. But definitely solid, 446 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: definitely moving in the right direction, and I think that's 447 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: part of the reason why I like them, plus the 448 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: points in this game. Do you share my optimism? 449 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 2: Tennessee's my home dog of the week. You can play 450 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 2: the sound. 451 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: The Yokers home dog of the week. 452 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 2: Okay, so you have Nland, which will be rocking. You 453 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 2: have Lane Kiffen returning to neland and he So I 454 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 2: don't think that's a player thing. That's you know, the 455 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 2: crowd is going to be especially juiced in a letdown 456 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 2: spot with one of the absolute worst rush defenses in 457 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 2: the country and Tennessee's running the hell out of the ball. 458 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 2: You rightfully mentioned Hendon Hooker, but Tyan Evans has been 459 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 2: a revelation. 460 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: For the balls. Should I change my name to tie On? 461 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: I think absolutely you should. 462 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 2: I thought about it high on the ones, Yeah, I 463 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: think matchup wise, situationally. By the way, curious Dog in 464 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 2: old Town Knoxville is the move here looks really good 465 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 2: sandwiches I just really really enticing to me. I don't 466 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 2: know why somebody would feel good about Old Miss. I 467 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 2: understand the offense and the good quarterback play, but I 468 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 2: don't know a disappointing defense on the road in a 469 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: letdown spot after just giving up fifty in a winning effort, 470 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: mind you, but giving up fifty. Yeah, I think Tennessee 471 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 2: is in a great spot here. They are beating teams 472 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 2: comfortably that they should be beating, and the pit loss 473 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 2: is aged well. Pitt's been a strong an Ish team. Yeah, 474 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 2: and you know the Florida game. 475 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 1: Whatever. Florida is a good team. 476 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 2: It's an inconsistent team, but it's a good team. No, 477 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 2: I think this is a great time to pick Tennessee 478 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: at home as a dog. I'm just extremely confident that 479 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 2: this is the play, and again leaning into my enthusiasm, 480 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 2: I've been enjoying watching Tennessee play football, so why not 481 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 2: enjoy them at home against a bad defense. 482 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: Part of why I think this game is so interesting 483 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: is because there are matchups that favor both teams. Sure, 484 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: so in this specific game, I think you're going to 485 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: see a couple things a lot. The first is Matt 486 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: Corral throwing the ball, which we already know. We know 487 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: they're going to do that, but it bears repeating here 488 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: because it's a really good matchup. For allbyss, Tennessee is 489 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: not great in terms of pass defense. No, they don't 490 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: make place, they don't make plays. And the second thing is, 491 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: I think ole Miss has an opportunity to blitz a 492 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: little bit more. And now this is not me looking 493 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: at film. I don't know what I'm looking at, but 494 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: this is me looking at numbers. And the numbers suggest 495 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: that Tennessee isn't the best at protecting its quarterback. It 496 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: also suggests that ole Miss doesn't blitz a whole lot there. 497 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 1: Blitz is per drop back is one hundred and twenty 498 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: seventh in the nation. So it's not an aggressive attacking defense, 499 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: at least not in terms of that. So this could 500 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: be an opportunity for them to do that, to maybe 501 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 1: put more pressure on Hendon Hooker than he's seen from. 502 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 2: Their previous opponents. I think if we're looking at the 503 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 2: same numbers, though, like on against the blitz they've had, 504 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 2: they've made big play, maybe plays high exactly exactly. 505 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: So it's weird, right, it's conflicting information, and I think 506 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: you're right to point out that there's an opportunity on 507 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,439 Speaker 1: the ground for Tennessee. I don't know which way this 508 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: game is going to go. I could see a lot 509 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: of points here that is not any kind of deep 510 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: dark secret when you're talking about Ole miss right, these 511 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: are kind of games are going to play and the 512 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: kind of games are gonna win. But I'm with you 513 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: on Tennessee Home Dog of the Week, man, I really am. 514 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 1: What was the place in Tennessee? Curious Dog? Curious Dog? 515 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, curious dog, good looking sandwiches. There's all sorts of 516 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 2: variety to what they're offering. I would go there in 517 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 2: a heartbeat. 518 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: That's just me. That's just me. They're not paying me 519 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,959 Speaker 1: to say that. It just looks good. Some other games 520 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: that we need to mention. Let's let's go back in 521 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: time if we can, then get in the time ye 522 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: seven pm ESPN on Friday, Clemson at Syracuse. The Carrier 523 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,959 Speaker 1: Dome is where teams go, oh to die. Wake Forest 524 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: almost died last week. They probably should have, but they didn't. 525 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 2: Correct I can I maybe this is something to talk 526 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 2: about at another time when we talk about wake Forest. 527 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: Wake Forest is a very brutal watch on offense. 528 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, they are that like slow handoff RPO is just 529 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 2: tough visually. 530 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: I mean that's the claw fence to you and I Philistines. 531 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, nonetheless, Wake Forest undefeated, probably should have lost 532 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: one in overtime on the road to the Carrier Dome. 533 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: Syracuse is better than meets the eye. They're better than 534 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: meets the eye. I don't know how much success they're 535 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 1: gonna have on the ground against the Clemson defense, but notably, 536 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: the Clemson defense is pretty damn banged up. Yeah, like 537 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: they're all banged up. The whole world's banged up right now. 538 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: And Clemson's entering a very tricky part of its schedule. 539 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: They've got road games the next three weeks. They've got 540 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: pitt next week. I don't know if this is a 541 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: look ahead spot. I doubt it, no, but I don't 542 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: think so. I think it's meaningful to say that ninety 543 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: four percent of the Bunny right now is on Syracuse. 544 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: Getting fourteen at home feels like a really big number 545 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 1: against a Clemson offense that has struggled, a Syracuse team 546 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: that seems plucky, and a Clemson team in general that 547 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:17,360 Speaker 1: we know is pretty banged up. 548 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 2: Walk me through your favorite Clemson cover this year against FBS. 549 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 1: Don't Maybe I knew you were going to say that. 550 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:26,640 Speaker 1: I knew you were going to say that. 551 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 2: Just into the dark board, just bing bing that one, 552 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 2: bing bing that one. There's no reason to like Clemson 553 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 2: in this matchup in a comfortable way? 554 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:37,360 Speaker 1: Is there? No? 555 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 2: What have they proven at all this year that like, okay, 556 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 2: Syracuse is decent enough, we're gonna be to my seventeen. 557 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 2: What have they shown evidence wise, hope, wise, faith wise 558 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 2: this year specifically? 559 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. 560 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 2: I mean, they might win this game by three touchdowns. 561 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 2: They could win this game thirty one to ten for sure. 562 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 2: I think Garrett s Trader is a real quarterback, a 563 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 2: real dual threat. They're running the hell out of the ball. 564 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 2: I know Clemson's defense is the best thing in this game. 565 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: It's in the Carrier Dome. I think Clemson will win 566 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 2: this game by eight or nine points. But there's no 567 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 2: part of me that has seen anything from Clemson, especially 568 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 2: since the receiving play has been down to make me 569 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 2: think this is a team that can cover a big 570 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 2: spread on the road. Surely, No, take those points. 571 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: I think I'm with you, and it's about trust, right 572 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: of course, of course not trust. Yeah. Friday ten thirty, ESPN, 573 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: cal at Org. It's it's high Hides. 574 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 2: Of Liverpool, by the way, Hi Mo for hot dogs 575 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 2: in the Syracuse Area. 576 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: Hides Cal Oregon hid cal Organ. We don't even talk 577 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: about Cali Organ. Oregon's number nine still in the playoff conversation, 578 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 1: Dan humh Yeah, cool. Oregon favored by thirteen at home. 579 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: They were on bye last week. Remember they lost in 580 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: week five on the road at Stanford. They also lost 581 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: both C. J. Verdell and Bennett Williams. They're starting running back, 582 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: and there's safety both to leg injuries. And that's on 583 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: top of the woes that you have continuously been pointing 584 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: out about the Oregon offense and your boy Anthony Brown 585 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: at quarterback. 586 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 2: Which, by the way, you didn't even mention. Their offensive 587 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 2: coordinator didn't coach against Stanford. Joe Morehead was in for 588 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: like emergency surgery. Yeah, and I think is back this week. 589 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 2: I don't know if he's actually going to be at 590 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,959 Speaker 2: the game calling plays, but I know he's back game planning. 591 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, on top of all of that, with offensive 592 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 2: and quarterback struggles, they've needed like a GA to step 593 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 2: in and coach quarterbacks. 594 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: It bears mentioning that the number nine team in the 595 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: country at home at night is only a thirteen point 596 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: favorite against an unranked one and four Cal team whose 597 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: only win came against an SCS opponent. Correct, That seems 598 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: meaningful for me, and so I'm going Cal here. I 599 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: don't feel great about it. It's been a really rough year, 600 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: kind of a nightmare season for Chase Garber's who previously 601 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: we were Google for Garbers not so much this year. 602 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: But I gotta go points here because to what you 603 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: said about the previous game in Clemson. I don't know 604 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: if I trust Oregon to get separation against almost anybody 605 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: right now. Mario christaball is five and twelve as a 606 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: home favorite. Five and twelve is a home favorite. He 607 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: doesn't lose all that often at home. I think he's 608 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: only lost once that Stanford game way back when. But 609 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: this is not an Oregon team under Mario crist ball 610 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: that covers against good, bad, ugly teams. Now, depending on 611 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: what you feel about Cal, Cal has run the ball 612 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: actually pretty well. 613 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: There's a decent argument to be made that they could 614 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 2: be four and one. They were losing that Wazoo game. 615 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 2: They just couldn't finish drives at all against Wazoo. 616 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: That was ugly. 617 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 2: But the weird thing about Cal is defensively, they haven't 618 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 2: been where they were, and offensively they've at least gotten 619 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 2: a little bit better. There's nothing about Oregon to me 620 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 2: that screams killer instinct and it's sort of echo is 621 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 2: how I talked about Clemson, and now Oregon's winning their games. 622 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 2: Largely they beat one of the best teams in the country, 623 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 2: but in terms of covering that number, Oregons just I 624 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 2: don't know. They're too discombobulated on offense, especially in the 625 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 2: passing game. Now they're beat up all over the place. 626 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: Keveon Thibodau is not playing in the first half because 627 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 2: of the targeting call against Stanford, Like there's just there's 628 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 2: no real reason to feel like, Yeah, Oregon's beating Cal 629 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: forty two to twenty. I don't see it. I don't 630 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 2: see the rhythm of that. You'll see hopefully a lot 631 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 2: of younger faces on offense this week against Cal. If 632 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 2: you're an Oregon fan, that'd be nice. I won't see 633 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 2: it until Saturday morning because I do not stay up 634 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 2: to watch for this offense. That's just not who I 635 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 2: am right now as a tired, constantly pair can I. 636 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: Get unrelated but sort of related question? Always there are 637 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: gonna be some big jobs opening up this year, I 638 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: think the LC job is going to be open. We 639 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: already know about USC. There will be others, for sure. 640 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: Do you want crystal Ball to take one of those jobs? Like, secretly, 641 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: do you hate Mario crystabal on him to leave. I 642 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: don't hate him. 643 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 2: I think he's done a really really good job. But 644 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 2: there is a certain I like this word a lot 645 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 2: to this morning rhythm to a Mario Christobal season where 646 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 2: he's gonna recruit his ass off, but also Oregon's gonna 647 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:22,239 Speaker 2: lose one or two games in ugly fashion where you're 648 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 2: just like, what, who's in charge here? Or who's not 649 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 2: delegating or who's delegating, or does it seem like there's 650 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,479 Speaker 2: not a plan, Like we're four years in and Anthony 651 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: Brown is starting at quarterback? We kind of know what 652 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 2: Anthony Brown is and isn't six years in now, right, 653 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 2: So there is an infuriating part of rooting for a 654 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 2: Mario Crystaball Oregon team that I'm sure was similar to 655 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 2: rooting for like a Jim Mora UCLA team where you 656 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 2: recruit really really well or some of those USC teams, 657 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 2: like you recruit really really well, but you're losing one 658 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 2: and a half to two and a half games inexcusably 659 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 2: and ruining potential, or like I get to watch Justin 660 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 2: Herbert highlights now for the San Diego Chargers, and I 661 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 2: think back to what Oregon's offense was, or really what 662 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 2: it wasn't when he was at Oregon. I was like, Oh, 663 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 2: would have been nice. Would have been nice to have 664 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 2: an offense where Justin Herbert just bombing it down the 665 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 2: field with a creative passing game. Huh, that would have 666 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:15,320 Speaker 2: been cool. 667 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 668 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 2: And so I don't know. Those kinds of things weigh 669 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 2: on me. And so I don't want him to leave. 670 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 2: I think they're building something impressive there. I want him 671 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 2: to evolve a little bit in the way that this 672 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 2: program attacks teams and beats clearly lesser teams more comfortably. 673 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 2: With more talent and more experience. 674 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: Might be able to bring Scott Frost back. Just saying yeah, 675 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: thrown that out here. All right, let's go back to 676 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: Saturday high noon, ABC UCF speaking of Scott Froster. Former 677 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: landing spots for Scott Frost on the road at number 678 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: three Cincinnati, Cincinnati favored by twenty. Here, you see, if 679 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,959 Speaker 1: another team we haven't talked a whole lot about since 680 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: that Week one thriller against Boise State, and that's mainly 681 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: because Dylan Gabriel broke his collarbone in their loss in 682 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: Week three, last play of the game against Louisville, and 683 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: they've sort of been a shell of themselves ever since. 684 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: They've turned it over to freshman mikey Keen. They've subsequently 685 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: lost to Navy, and they needed a late touchdown to 686 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: eke past Ecu. I see no reason here that UCF 687 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: can keep this game close. There is no logical argument 688 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,720 Speaker 1: you can make to me for UCF keeping this game close. 689 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: It's not like they have a great defense that they 690 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: can fall back on, and the offense, which was supposed 691 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: to be the calling card, is very much in transition 692 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: right now as they try to work through mikey Keene. 693 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 1: So if you can present an argument why I'd want 694 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 1: to take the points here, I'll listen. But I think 695 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: this is one of those that you just need to 696 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: underthink too much. Working against UCF was supposed to be 697 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: a really big game at the start of the year. 698 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 1: It just it just didn't materialize. So I got Cincinnati 699 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: minus whatever. 700 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 2: Is there something you've seen from Cincinnati that makes you 701 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 2: think they can pounce if even if we just think 702 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 2: UCF is okay, is Cincinnati a pounced team against okay teams? 703 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 2: Because it doesn't fully seem like they are right, Like, 704 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 2: how many points did they get off of like short 705 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 2: fields against Notre Dame. Hey, good teams take advantage of 706 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 2: situations and breaks. That's great, they did it. But there 707 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: is a part of me that worries about Cincinnati. They're 708 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 2: gonna take this game very seriously because theyre UCF is 709 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 2: one of two. Right I'm looking at cincinnati schedule right now. 710 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 2: They have SMU at home UH later on in November, 711 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 2: so they're gonna do everything they can. UCF has their 712 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 2: full attention. UCF can run the ball, so maybe they 713 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 2: can control clock a little bit. Isaiah Bowser has had 714 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 2: a nice year. 715 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: Let me let me stop and wet me stop you, 716 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 1: let me stop you. I'm ready. Navy's terrible. Navy's terrible. Granted, 717 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: first game for mikey Keane, first game for Mike. Maybe's improved, 718 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: but yeah, they're still terrible. And then ECU is also terrible. 719 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: ECU is worse. So say what you want about running 720 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: the ball, and you know UCF was supposed to be good. 721 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: UCF is not good. They are not a good team 722 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: right now. You think twenty three touchdowns, though I think 723 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: it might be four or five touchdowns. I think they're 724 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: gonna hammer UCF. 725 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 2: I'm leaning that direction because I struggle to find a 726 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 2: concrete reason to love UCF. 727 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: But I'm not. 728 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 2: As confident I think you are. Okay, I understand Cincinnati 729 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 2: is the number three team in the country. They have 730 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 2: two pounds. I just haven't seen it thus far, and 731 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 2: I think they're they'll win this game through the air comfortably. 732 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 2: It's just a big number, that's. 733 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: All fair enough. Twelve o'clock FS one Michigan State, number ten. 734 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: Michigan State a four and one half point favorite on 735 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: the road at Indiana. Michigan State keeps finding itself in 736 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: these situations. So Indiana was on bye last week. Remember 737 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: they got shut out the week prior against Penn State. 738 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: Over the next four weeks, Indiana's got home games against 739 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: Michigan State and Ohio State, and then two back to 740 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: back road games at Maryland and at Michigan. They are 741 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: projected to lose all four of those games. Suffice to say, 742 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: the season has not gone the way Tom Allen the 743 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 1: way Indiana faithful would hope. My assumption here, given the 744 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: small points bread is that there is an impulse to 745 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 1: take Indiana and the points in part because people still 746 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 1: want to believe in Tom Allen and the Indiana team 747 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: that they saw last year. Dan that Indiana is not 748 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: walking out onto the field. It is not walking out 749 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: that door. And maybe it's because people have not been 750 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,439 Speaker 1: paying attention to Michigan State. I don't know, but four 751 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: and a half to me is befuddling. Michigan State has 752 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: been damn good this season, and I get that Indiana 753 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 1: might with its defense, be able to keep things close. 754 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 1: And it's another road test, certainly more of a road 755 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: test then going on the road against Rutgers the way 756 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 1: Michigan State did a week ago. There's any denying that, 757 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: but I don't understand the logic in only four and 758 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,919 Speaker 1: a half. It feels like that is way, way, way 759 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: too small. 760 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 2: I hear you, if you're underthinking it. You're thinking that's 761 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,720 Speaker 2: a weird spread. And Michigan State should be a bigger favorite, 762 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 2: given how their offense has evolved and they've gotten really 763 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 2: impressive stops on defense and Indiana's struggles by the way, 764 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 2: it's kind of confounding. But Indiana since twenty eighteen under 765 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 2: Tom Allen five and one with a rest advantage, okay, 766 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything for this year. Nice five and one 767 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 2: against the spread with the rest advantage, So they're good 768 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 2: at rn R over there in Bloomington, but three and 769 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 2: six as a home dog since twenty eighteen, So I 770 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 2: don't know. It's all over the place the trends. I'm 771 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 2: going to Michigan State. My under thought here is they're better. 772 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 2: They're better at college football, and Indiana has really struggled 773 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 2: this year. I just I don't see. I didn't lay 774 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 2: on the ground. This wasn't a Queen's gambit pawnd game 775 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 2: for me. But I just it's hard to visualize and 776 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 2: see how India Indiana jumps up and beats Michigan State. Now, 777 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 2: we saw a long stretch against Nebraska and the Nebraska 778 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 2: defense or Michigan State did on the road or excuse 779 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:18,800 Speaker 2: me at home, nothing right, literally nothing, So we've seen 780 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 2: an extremely down stretch. I just don't think Indiana has 781 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 2: the defense to bring that out in Michigan State. I 782 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 2: don't think. But you know, if you are not a 783 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 2: full believer in Michigan State as a ten win team 784 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 2: out of nowhere. It would be a game like this, 785 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 2: It would be a game against an Indiana team coming 786 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 2: off of a buye who just for however briefly gets 787 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 2: its act together. 788 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and also potentially a bit of an open faced 789 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: look ahead situation for Michigan State because it's a getaway game. 790 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 1: They're on by next week before they've got Michigan coming 791 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: to town. Right, I don't you know, two weeks out, 792 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 1: that's that's a lot for me to try and process by. 793 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: I guess you could put together an argument. I just 794 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: don't see it. I think Michigan State's really solid. I 795 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: think they're getting better. They have not shown much in 796 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: the way of hiccups. Why would we want to bet 797 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,240 Speaker 1: against them? Indiana's been pretty dreadful, So I go Michigan 798 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: State too. I'm laying the points in the road. We agree. 799 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 2: If I'm gonna be snarky about Clemson's record against the spread, 800 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 2: Indiana is yet to cover this year exactly. They have 801 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 2: been overrated by Vegas all season long. We are seven 802 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 2: weeks in. 803 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: Also at a high noon on CBS, Auburn at number 804 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 1: seventeen now Arkansas, Arkansas favored by three and a half. 805 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: Tough stretch. Tough stretch coming to an end for both teams. 806 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: Right now, Arkansas has had A and M and road 807 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: games against both Georgia and Ole Miss all in a row. 808 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: Auburn was at LSU and then home against Georgia last week. 809 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: I think it's fair to ask what both teams have 810 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 1: in the tank. I think it's possible this could be 811 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,280 Speaker 1: a sloppy game because both have gone through the gauntlet. 812 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: Ninety percent of the money right now is on Arkansas, 813 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 1: which I think makes sense. Tom, I think that makes 814 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: sense to me. I think Auburn's a good team, and 815 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: I stand by what I said a couple of weeks ago. 816 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 1: I do think they're better than they were a year ago. 817 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 1: I just don't know what I'm betting on if I 818 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: go Auburn right and there's just more to say. 819 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 2: You're betting on the Arkansas run defense struggling. I guess 820 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:24,760 Speaker 2: you're betting on Jarquise Hunter and tank bigsby finding lanes 821 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 2: and controlling the ground, I guess, But I just feel 822 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,439 Speaker 2: like there's more to sink your teeth into. We've got 823 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 2: much more a body of work that we can lean 824 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 2: on with Arkansas. At this point, Auburn's played good teams, 825 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,399 Speaker 2: but I feel like Arkansas scored against good teams. 826 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: So not always, not always. Georgia not Georgia, not Georgia. 827 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: Fair enough, fair enough, Yeah, but I'm gonna go Arkansas 828 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: here minus the number. 829 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm leaning into my enthusiasm. I think Arkansas has 830 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 2: more ways to win this game. They've shown flashes of defense, 831 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 2: mind you, last week not a great example of that. 832 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 2: I think. I just I'm down on Auburn's ability to 833 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 2: play four decent quarters, and I think you need to 834 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: play four decent quarters to be Arkansas. So I'm gonna 835 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give those points, leaning into my hog enthusiasm. 836 00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:13,240 Speaker 1: Will Pig also early this one on ESPN Number twenty. 837 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 1: Florida minus nine and a half at LSU. LSU snuck 838 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 1: by Mississippi State and has since lost its last two 839 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: to Auburn and Kentucky. They got run off the field 840 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: last week against Kentucky. They can't run the ball, for crap. 841 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 2: And they did last week they did against Kentucky, sir whatever. 842 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 2: In general, yeah, they have not been able to run 843 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 2: all that effectively and the offense really had no pop 844 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 2: outside of Kashawan Bute and now he's done for the year, 845 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,439 Speaker 2: which sucks. Yeah, leg injury, done for the year. They're 846 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 2: kind of a worse version of USC right now, aren't they? 847 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: Man? 848 00:43:54,680 --> 00:44:00,040 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I mean USC has already fired their co w. 849 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 1: But yes, there's a similarity there that's hard to ignore. 850 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: And I just don't like I get there at home. 851 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 1: I know Tiger Stadium is a tough place to play. 852 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 1: What am I betting? 853 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 2: A lot of emotion in this matchup every year Florida LSU? 854 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 1: What am I betting on? What am I sinking my 855 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: teeth into? If I want to go LSU? I mean ten. 856 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 2: Point dogs at home for an LSU team that has 857 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 2: I think Max Johnson's pretty good. They're beat up everywhere. 858 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 2: We mentioned Derek Stingley last week. He's out for the 859 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:34,239 Speaker 2: season with a foot injury. That's just a lot of points. 860 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: I don't know what am I bet But tell me 861 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 1: what I'm betting on. Other than looking at the number 862 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 1: blindly in a vacue and saying, wow, that's a lot 863 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 1: of points at home, underthink it for me. What are 864 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: we betting on with LSU right now? It feels like 865 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,879 Speaker 1: the program at current State is in shambles. They might 866 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: fire their coach. Like the second we hit posts on 867 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:59,399 Speaker 1: this podcast, right, what are we betting on? I don't know. 868 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:04,320 Speaker 2: You Florida on the road looking like absolute trash against Kentucky. 869 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,880 Speaker 2: But if you're betting with LSU, if there's something about 870 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,359 Speaker 2: LSU that you like, is they're going to be playing 871 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 2: a lot of younger, intriguing players that have had that 872 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:18,399 Speaker 2: have flashed this year, and Florida has been somewhat inconsistent though, 873 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 2: I mean he blew out Vanderbilt last week. Whatever, that 874 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 2: new blood will infuse LSU with some much needed energy 875 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 2: and juice. 876 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: That's it. 877 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 2: I think that's it. I don't know, so yeah, I 878 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm gonna give the points here. 879 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 1: I like Florida three point thirty ESPN number nineteen BYU 880 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: at Baylor. Baylor is favored by four and a half. 881 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: Block of the week. Wow, the Jeff Grimes Bowl. Baby. 882 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 1: Jeff Grimes, former BYU offensive coordinator, came over to Baylor 883 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 1: in the offseason, and he's got the Baylor offense humming. 884 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,799 Speaker 1: It looks good and BYU had been humming as well 885 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 1: until they just lost for the first time last week 886 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: to Boise State, and even in that matchup, they played 887 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,439 Speaker 1: fairly well on offense, they just couldn't get enough points 888 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 1: of the board. I'm all over Baylor here. Have you 889 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 1: looked at Baylor's numbers? 890 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,240 Speaker 2: They're great, They're terrific. Have you looked at their schedule? 891 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 1: I have. So it's Iowa. 892 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 2: State and the lost Oklahoma State, like Kansas, Texas Southern 893 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 2: Texas State, clearly down West Virginia, which they took care 894 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 2: of business like you should do against clearly down teams. 895 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 2: But also who other than Iowa State. 896 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 1: O great. 897 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 2: It's nice win, very nice win. Weird win, but nice win. 898 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 2: Gary Bohannon is good. Everybody's good on this team. They're 899 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 2: good players all over the field. Taekwon Thornton it can 900 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 2: pop a huge play like he did last week. I 901 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 2: I mean, by the way Baylor could lose to a 902 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 2: quarterback named Baylor, WI is its own nice little wrinkle. 903 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,959 Speaker 2: If Baylor Romney starts, which I know some BYU fans 904 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 2: are clamoring for. I like Baylor here, I do. The 905 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 2: game is at home and BYU an uneven performance against 906 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 2: Boyse have looked strong. Otherwise, I just think it's a 907 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 2: tall task. I think it's a tall task, and especially 908 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 2: with maybe perhaps quarterback controversy at the top for BYU, 909 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 2: I am just going with the home team that seems 910 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 2: to be playing well. 911 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 1: That seems they're playing well. They're playing well, they got momentum. 912 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,319 Speaker 1: Gary Bohannon is getting better every week. He has yet 913 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 1: to throw pick this season, which I did not know. 914 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,800 Speaker 1: But he's been very sign yeah, very sound with the football. 915 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,919 Speaker 1: And they're just solid. They're solid on offense or solid 916 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: on defense. They're very good on special teams. They're much 917 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 1: better on special teams than BYU, which, as we've seen 918 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 1: from some other Baylor games this year, that can have 919 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 1: a pretty outsized impact. So I like Baylor a lot here. 920 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm not going to say it's a strong lock. Have 921 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,920 Speaker 1: another one that I'm much more also in the Big 922 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:04,800 Speaker 1: twelve that I'm much more into. 923 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 2: But the concern, by the way, is BYU's defense at 924 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 2: this moment, as Baylor seems to be taking steps up 925 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 2: on offense, BYU's defense has not been their play to play, 926 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 2: especially through the air. 927 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 1: Fair Enough, let's move on. Let's talk about Pitt and 928 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. Pitt favored by five. Pitt should win this 929 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 1: game three point thirty ESPN two. But we don't have 930 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 1: a great measuring stick for Pitt. They had to win 931 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 1: at Tennessee back in week two, and look, that's a 932 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,280 Speaker 1: good win in hindsight, but different Tennessee team at the time. 933 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: Fair to say. They came back home the following week 934 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,320 Speaker 1: they lost to Western Michigan, not great. Then they follow 935 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: that up by drilling New Hampshire and Georgia Tech. It's 936 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: a fairly easy argument to make that this is going 937 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 1: to be their toughest game of the year. Given circumstances, 938 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: this is the toughest game that they've had to date 939 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one oh two dates. Okay, because they 940 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 1: do play Clemson, right, they do play Clemson, but I 941 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 1: think to date, yeah, and I'm throwing the Tennessee game 942 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,360 Speaker 1: out because it was a different Tennessee team. This is 943 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 1: the toughest game that they've played or will have played. 944 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 1: I have no confidence in pitt cover none at all, 945 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: really none. And why I also stand by what I 946 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 1: said a week ago about Virginia Tech that they are 947 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: good enough to be within one score of everybody, everybody 948 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 1: in on their raw, on their schedule, They're gonna be 949 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: with it one score. It's going to be an infuriating 950 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:35,239 Speaker 1: season for Hokies fans. So I've got Virginia Tech plus 951 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:39,240 Speaker 1: the points at home. Yea, I'm gonna give the points. 952 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,479 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give the points here. I think the fact 953 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 1: that Pitt stops the run and will force Braxton, Burmeister 954 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,959 Speaker 1: or whoever to throw it over the top. 955 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 2: I think it's a great matchup for Pitt. I know 956 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:53,480 Speaker 2: Virginia Tech plays the past pretty well, but again, I'm 957 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 2: enthusiastic about Pitt. My under thought is that Pitt is 958 00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:00,160 Speaker 2: significantly more exciting and better and can win this game 959 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 2: in more ways. And I know it's on the road. 960 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,399 Speaker 2: I know it's a difficult place to play, but it's 961 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 2: also a bit of a close letdown spot too, right 962 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 2: after losing close to Notre Dame. 963 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:08,800 Speaker 1: True. 964 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, situation, I think I think Pitt's in a 965 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,760 Speaker 2: good space. Did did Pitt play last week? 966 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: Pitt did? No, They're coming off of bye as well. 967 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a great place. Yeah, all right, we 968 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 1: got to move quick. We got a bunch of other 969 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,399 Speaker 1: ones here that we just want to at least mention. Yeah. 970 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 1: Three thirty ACC network. I've got Miami at North Carolina 971 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 1: on the list. I'm not sure why, but North Carolina 972 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: favored by seven. Now, we thought this was going to 973 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: be a banger. I think that's why I have it 974 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 1: on the list. We thought this was going to be 975 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 1: a huge matchup in the ACC HM. It looks like 976 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 1: Deeric King has done for the year. He heard his 977 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 1: shoulder a few weeks ago. He's done. Jake Garcia, the 978 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 1: backup from Miami, is also done for some period of time. 979 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:54,359 Speaker 1: He had surgery on his ankle. Meanwhile, Carolina lost last 980 00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 1: week to Florida State, and basically everything is on Sam 981 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 1: Howell on offense. At least. I would watch this game 982 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 1: if I had a morbid curiosity, but otherwise I guess 983 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: I would take the points here. I don't know. I 984 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 1: don't have a lean. 985 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 2: I think Miami is an average team because they make 986 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 2: plays and they take away those good plays with dumb mistakes. 987 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,840 Speaker 2: And I think North Carolina is a below average team. 988 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna take the average team to beat the 989 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,279 Speaker 2: below average team. I'm gonna take Miami on the road 990 00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:29,839 Speaker 2: to win this game, outright, I don't know. I think 991 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 2: Van Dyke is fine at quarterback. He's going to get 992 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:37,320 Speaker 2: better week by week. I just North Carolina is just reeling. 993 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 2: I don't like them up front on offense. I don't 994 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 2: like their ability to stop bigger plays on defense. I 995 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 2: just I think Miami by default just does more for me. 996 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 1: At this point seven pm ESPN number five Alabama feels 997 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 1: weird to say. Yeah, I still had number one on 998 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,360 Speaker 1: my sheet here, so I'm a bit confused myself. But 999 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 1: Alabama minus seventeen on the road at Mississippi State many 1000 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 1: moons ago, Dan, you may recall us warning folks about 1001 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: zombie Alabama. Be careful of Alabama when they taste their 1002 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: own blood. Things happen. Alabama won this game forty one 1003 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:24,200 Speaker 1: to nil last year, and I know the defense is 1004 00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,800 Speaker 1: solid from Mississippi State. I just would not want to 1005 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 1: be on the side of that bed. One week after 1006 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 1: Bama tastes its own blood, I'll turn into a different creature. 1007 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 1: I go Bama minus whatever here. 1008 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 2: Ah, yeah, I think this is the exception to my 1009 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 2: rule of well, we have a good Mississippi State defense. 1010 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 2: To me at the moment, they give up too many 1011 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 2: big plays, but still a good defense at home. Hostile crowd, 1012 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 2: big line. But I think you're right. I think this 1013 00:52:56,040 --> 00:53:01,160 Speaker 2: is a neck Thirdaz the Demons game for Alabama. So yeah, 1014 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 2: I think they win this game by twenty one to 1015 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 2: twenty four points plus. 1016 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:05,200 Speaker 1: I just yeah. 1017 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 2: I think they're going to be refocused because that just 1018 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 2: tends to be how it works with Nick Saban and Alabama. 1019 00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,279 Speaker 2: I think Bryce Young has a nice game, even though 1020 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 2: those corners form Mississippi State are quite good. I think 1021 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 2: they're going to bounce back in a big way. I 1022 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 2: think they'll they'll have a complete performance on offense and defensively. 1023 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 2: I think they'll do a good job keeping this this 1024 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 2: State offense in front of them, because that's what every 1025 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 2: team has pretty much done this yere kept that offense 1026 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 2: in front, force them to nickel dime, and that's just 1027 00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. It's not the way you beat Nick 1028 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,319 Speaker 2: Saban teams. It's not the way Nick Saban defenses. So yeah, 1029 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 2: I think I don't know if it's a crock potty, 1030 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a flash fry. Something tells 1031 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 2: me it's gonna be a flash fry and it'll be 1032 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 2: a twenty one to three game early in the second quarter, 1033 00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 2: So yeah, give me the tide here. 1034 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 1: This is the point in the broadcast where I realize 1035 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 1: that the final seven games that I'm going to mention, 1036 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 1: I am on the road team in all of those, 1037 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 1: So be advised, saying, folks, be advised. Let's move on 1038 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:02,359 Speaker 1: to seven thirty ABC tad you on the road at 1039 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 1: number four Oklahoma. Oklahoma was a twelve and a half 1040 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 1: point favorite. It's come down. It's eleven and a half 1041 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 1: at time of recording, and I too, am going in 1042 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:16,440 Speaker 1: on TCU. My boys, my brothers. I thought you were done. 1043 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 1: I love TCU, always have always will I think we're 1044 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 1: gonna see Kyle Williams. I think we're gonna see Kye 1045 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 1: Williams to some extent replaced Spencer Rattler. I don't think 1046 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 1: that means Spencer has anything been announced. I have not 1047 00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 1: seen anything, but with the performance that he put in 1048 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: and with Spencer Rattler seeing some ghosts, it would not 1049 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 1: surprise me if we see Ko Williams. And I still 1050 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,400 Speaker 1: like Gary Patterson in a matchup against the young quarterback, 1051 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:49,840 Speaker 1: even though the defense at TCU has been aggressively average, 1052 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: to put it kindly, I like that matchup. I like 1053 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:59,359 Speaker 1: that matchup for TCU plus the points. Oklahoma wins. Oklahoma's better. 1054 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: Oklahoma wins. They probably run for a million yards. But 1055 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 1: can TCU confuse a young quarterback? Can TCU confuse Spencer 1056 00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,359 Speaker 1: Ratler if he's the guy? Yes, I think they can, 1057 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:12,399 Speaker 1: so I'm taking the points at home. 1058 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 2: They haven't been confusing a lot of quarterbacks here though. 1059 00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 1: They haven't, but I think they're juiced up for this game. 1060 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: I expect a renewde focus going on the road in Norman, 1061 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,320 Speaker 1: especially if they're going up against a rookie quarterback. 1062 00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:26,479 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the points as well. I just haven't 1063 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 2: seen the Oklahoma separation as great as that win was, 1064 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 2: the late win, the mistakes that they made falling behind 1065 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 2: like they did. I think TCU should be able to 1066 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 2: run the ball pretty well against against the Sooner team. 1067 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,439 Speaker 2: You have the confusion at the topic quarterback right now. 1068 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 2: Is it Kayla Williams? Is it Spencer Ratler? Is there controversy? 1069 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,080 Speaker 2: Is there weird emotion? There is Spencer Ratler going to 1070 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 2: force balls if he's starting to prove that he's the guy. 1071 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,840 Speaker 2: Like I just I worry about Oklahoma a little bit. 1072 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 2: Even after that win. I'm going to take TCU in 1073 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:55,960 Speaker 2: the points. I think Oklahoma wins this game though, by 1074 00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 2: seven or ten. 1075 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:02,600 Speaker 1: Seven thirty ACC Network number twenty two. NC State minus 1076 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:05,719 Speaker 1: three on the road at Boston College. This is the 1077 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: game that you're staying home to watch instead of going 1078 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:13,120 Speaker 1: out on a date. Enthusiasm, Baby, you're not half in, 1079 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 1: You're all the way in with Jeff Hatley. Yeah, this 1080 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 1: is the kind of game. Is precisely the kind of 1081 00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 1: game that NC State needs to win if they want 1082 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 1: to be a real contender. It's a tough road game. 1083 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 1: It's against a gritty Boston College team that is going 1084 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,320 Speaker 1: to play them very close. Now, I've been high in 1085 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,359 Speaker 1: the wolf Pack all season. I'd be a hypocrite if 1086 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:38,240 Speaker 1: I did not take them to cover here, especially coming 1087 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 1: into this game off of a bye week. I do 1088 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 1: think it will be close, though I'm not at all 1089 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 1: confident in going NC State minus the number here on 1090 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 1: the road, but that is going to be my pick. 1091 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, on the road this year, NC State yet to win. Yeah, 1092 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,879 Speaker 2: so that's an issue. They lose to Mississippi State, which 1093 00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 2: hasn't necessarily aged well, only scoring ten points. The offense 1094 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,759 Speaker 2: isn't in an amazing place the NC State offense. I 1095 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 2: think I just like a home dog here. I like 1096 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:10,239 Speaker 2: that BC is well coached. I like that they they've 1097 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 2: continued to perform even without Phil Derkovic. They've run the 1098 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 2: ball really well. I just I just think that in 1099 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 2: order to beat BC at home, if I believe in 1100 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 2: the Eagles to whatever extent that I do, I want 1101 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 2: to see bigger plays. I want to see bigger plays. 1102 00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:27,320 Speaker 2: That's where their defense has been a little bit weak, 1103 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 2: giving up those those more explosive moments. 1104 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 1: And that's not how NC State is built. 1105 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 2: They're They're much more in that efficiency mold than explosion mold. 1106 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 2: I'm going BC at home. By the way, spikes in Alston, 1107 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 2: mass it's a Doe or bun tie, but they have 1108 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 2: curly fries. It looks like a delicious hot dog option 1109 00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 2: in the greater BC area. 1110 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 1: Seven point thirty ESPN two, Iowa State minus six and 1111 00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 1: a half on the road at case State Look of 1112 00:57:55,000 --> 00:58:02,880 Speaker 1: the Week, Daniel, you know what time it is. It's 1113 00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 1: b October. It is Broctober, baby, it is Broctober. And 1114 00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:11,120 Speaker 1: we have officially arrived at the point in the season 1115 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: where everybody forgot about Iowa State. Everybody forgot about them. 1116 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 1: That's true. Still the same team, still committing some stupid mistakes. 1117 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 1: Different story, but they beat Kansas. They went on by 1118 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 1: and everybody forgot about them. Not going as well as 1119 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 1: we thought. For sure, this team, I contend is still 1120 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 1: pretty good. It probably just took them a while to 1121 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:37,080 Speaker 1: get their feet under him going on the road here. 1122 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 1: It is a tricky spot. It is at night, it 1123 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 1: is in Manhattan, Kansas. But I stand by what I 1124 00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: said I think a few days ago to you. I 1125 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 1: am betting on Iowa State from here on out every 1126 00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 1: game because there is definitely gonna be a serious tinge 1127 00:58:55,880 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 1: of folks forgetting about this team and not taking them seriously. 1128 00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,080 Speaker 1: So I'm on Iowa State minus whatever. 1129 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:06,640 Speaker 2: I think it's a great matchup for the clones. Kansas 1130 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 2: State wins on the ground in Iowa State has been 1131 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 2: nails upfront. I'm gonna give those points as well. I 1132 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 2: think you're right. I think it's b October. I'm leaning in. 1133 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 2: I think Iowa State completely blasted them. That was a 1134 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 2: Will Howard team last year? Was it forty five? Nothing 1135 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,480 Speaker 2: in Ames last year completely demolished them. I think Iowa State, Yes, 1136 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 2: I think they're flying under the radar. Still, they've lost 1137 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 2: games in weird fashion. The turnovers against Iowa and of 1138 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 2: course the special team's lack of lack of organization and 1139 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 2: competence is worrisome. That was against who Baylor. Yeah, I 1140 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 2: think Iowa State gets his act together coming off of 1141 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 2: a bye. Give me the Clones confidently, sure. 1142 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 1: And then two pack twelve games here to close out 1143 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 1: our slate. Dan, That are both very small lines. This 1144 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:55,800 Speaker 1: first one you're gonna have to explain to me. It's 1145 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 1: eight thirty, it's on Fox, it's UCLA on the road 1146 00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:04,400 Speaker 1: at Washington. I'm seeing Washington as a one point favorite. Yeah. 1147 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,919 Speaker 1: I don't get that one at all, not at all. 1148 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:10,480 Speaker 1: What is going on? 1149 01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:14,480 Speaker 2: He really it's a really good defense at home against 1150 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 2: an extreme wild card quarterback, and UCLA wins running the ball. 1151 01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 2: Washington has been largely very very good upfront, and I 1152 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 2: just think in a difficult place to play at night 1153 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 2: with a good defense, Washington has made some plays on offense. 1154 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:35,840 Speaker 2: They have not been a good team for sure. Ucla 1155 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 2: is just all over the place. They're just not a 1156 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:42,040 Speaker 2: trustworthy team. Okay, that's why I think the line is 1157 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 2: where it is. If you like UCLA here, you have 1158 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:47,960 Speaker 2: to be confident that DTR will get his act together 1159 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 2: after a couple of down performances. 1160 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 1: Right. I guess the numbers I'm seeing have Washington as 1161 01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:01,000 Speaker 1: the ninety ninth best rush defense in the country, really, 1162 01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 1: which is not good unless I'm counting backwards, that's not Yeah, they've. 1163 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 2: Been better against the past. They've gotten after the passer 1164 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:10,680 Speaker 2: and the strength of the team, you know, Trent McDuffie 1165 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 2: in the back end. Yeah, they've played you know, a 1166 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 2: heavyweight in Montana as we all know. No, Michigan ran 1167 01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 2: all over them. I I don't know. 1168 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 1: I yeah, Oregon State get, I get the lack of trust. 1169 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 1: I get the lack of trust in DTR. I think 1170 01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 1: we're all in agreement on that front. Yeah, But I 1171 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:38,480 Speaker 1: think Washington kind of stinks. I don't know why. I 1172 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:40,160 Speaker 1: don't know if a Jimmy if it's a Jimmy Lake 1173 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:42,480 Speaker 1: thing or a John Donovan thing or what it is. 1174 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 1: But maybe Vegas is giving Washington credit for being Phil 1175 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,320 Speaker 1: Steele's number one surprise team in his previewmat I don't know, Like, 1176 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 1: what what is the draw here to Washington? Why would 1177 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: I want to go? Basically, Washington straight up against the 1178 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,400 Speaker 1: team that I know can play exactly into its weakness 1179 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 1: and run the ball effectively. So I'm on UCLA here, 1180 01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna think twice about it. 1181 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 2: Okay, what has UCLA done on the road this year? 1182 01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 2: They let Stanford crawl back into that game, and they 1183 01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 2: look kind of bad on offense at Arizona last week. 1184 01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 2: So this is their second straight road game as well, 1185 01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:18,200 Speaker 2: after traveling to the desert, traveling to Tucson. So yeah, 1186 01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,840 Speaker 2: it's really situational. Ucla has its act together in a 1187 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:23,840 Speaker 2: way that Washington doesn't. So I'm gonna go with Washington here. 1188 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the home team with at least 1189 01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 2: an element of good defense. They can force turnovers. I 1190 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 2: just it's a mistrust of dtr on the road. 1191 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 1: And finally staying in the PAC twelve after dark on ESPN, 1192 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 1: we've got number eighteen Arizona State minus one on the 1193 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 1: road at Utah. I like Utah. I root for Utah. Yeah, 1194 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:53,439 Speaker 1: going through an incomprehensible amount of grief and adversity after 1195 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 1: the death of a teammate that is truly awful. I 1196 01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:00,919 Speaker 1: am gonna pick ASU here. Think they're the better team. 1197 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: I think I think they're the better team. Hear me out, Okay, 1198 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 1: I do think this game's a coin flip, so I 1199 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:12,439 Speaker 1: expect a very good game late. I'm gonna come back 1200 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: home to my initial read on this team. I think 1201 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:18,000 Speaker 1: they're very good. I think they're better, and I've got 1202 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:19,280 Speaker 1: them winning on the road. 1203 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:27,479 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Utah. Jane Daniels Elevation had a terrible 1204 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 2: game against Utah, had a terrible game against BYU in 1205 01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 2: his career. I also think Cam Rising maybe being overlooked 1206 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 2: as a factor for Utah since he took over for 1207 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,439 Speaker 2: Charlie Brewer. I don't think he's going an interception. He's 1208 01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 2: thrown the ball downfield as we saw against USC pretty well. 1209 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,640 Speaker 2: I think he's I believe he transferred in from Texas. 1210 01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 2: I think he's a pretty good quarterback. The receivers have 1211 01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 2: Theo Howard the transfer eventually Ucla Oklahoma, he's there now. 1212 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 2: Britain Covey like, I think they're fine, and I think 1213 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 2: their defense is coming together nicely. I just I don't 1214 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 2: trust ASU here. I don't trust as U on the 1215 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 2: road against a good team, even though they what they 1216 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 2: beat Ucla at Ucla against this Utah team, who I 1217 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 2: think has grown into something interesting since Cam Rising took over. Yeah, 1218 01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 2: I understand why it's a pick them by the way, 1219 01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:17,480 Speaker 2: Nana's sonorin Dogs, Nana's Sonoran Dogs. 1220 01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:18,640 Speaker 1: The truck looks fantastic. 1221 01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to sort of consider them a home dog 1222 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 2: because they're not the favorite well in Utah here confidently. 1223 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 1: Okay, that is all I have of my slate, Dan, 1224 01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:30,200 Speaker 1: Is there anything else on yours? Yes? 1225 01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:34,200 Speaker 2: Quickly app State Louisiana both four and one square off midweek. 1226 01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 2: Rutgers is coming to town. 1227 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 1: Close to here. 1228 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:42,360 Speaker 2: That's Evanston and they are dogs. Northwestern is two rut Curse, 1229 01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:45,520 Speaker 2: which is wow. What a weird place to be Mustard's 1230 01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 2: Last stand. By the way, that's the place the hot 1231 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:49,760 Speaker 2: dog stand, literally next to Ryan Field. 1232 01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 1: That's a that's a fantastic It is a good name. 1233 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 2: I've heard it's overrated. I have never own it. We 1234 01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:00,120 Speaker 2: have we have Virginia Duke, which shouldn't be that. Go 1235 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 2: to a game, Brendan Armstrong will probably throw the ball 1236 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:04,000 Speaker 2: another fifty eight times. But I always laugh when these 1237 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:06,960 Speaker 2: two teams play because Virginia Duke sounds like a bygone 1238 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:09,240 Speaker 2: adult film Star of the seventies. 1239 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:10,840 Speaker 1: You wrote that down on a no sheet and I 1240 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:12,600 Speaker 1: looked it up and I couldn't find anything, and then 1241 01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 1: you told me it was a joke. 1242 01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 2: So thank you for excuse you couldn't find anything. I'm 1243 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 2: sure the searching was very thorough. 1244 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,560 Speaker 1: There were an interesting pallader results. 1245 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:25,840 Speaker 2: Yes, I have down here, big drum, big letdown with 1246 01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:31,400 Speaker 2: Purdue at Iowa, Oh Boilers off of a bye. I'm 1247 01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 2: just saying Purdue as giant killers is not new to 1248 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:37,880 Speaker 2: the Big ten. Fresno. They begin a tough stretch. They 1249 01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 2: have Wyoming on the road and then Nevada San Diego 1250 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:45,680 Speaker 2: State on the road, Boise State coming off of a bye, 1251 01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 2: and that loss we saw to Hawaii the Roadrunners tie. 1252 01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 2: Come on, Yeah, they're trying to extend their season to 1253 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:58,919 Speaker 2: a seven and oh one.

You tip you tep. 1257 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,280 Speaker 2: They're trying to get to their first bowl game in 1258 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 2: a long time, and their first non New Mexico Bowl 1259 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,600 Speaker 2: since like the Mic Price era, Air Force boy C 1260 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 2: might be interesting.
