1
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: All right, welcome in lakeke Is Live. It is Tuesday night, October.

2
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: See that the nineteenth of the seventeenth.

3
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 2: That's how sad things are around here. I came to

4
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 2: read my own handwriting.

5
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: I do know it is the year of our lower

6
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. And all we really need to know

7
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: around here is this Tuesday night. And that means we

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 1: are not only high at top downtown Nashville, Tennessee, but

9
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 1: it's time to predict some games.

10
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: And Week eight you're being sold to same old bill

11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 2: of goods. Oh, it's so this sleepy Week eight.

12
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: And then when the dust settles and the debris all clear.

13
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: Actually I probably shouldn't be using the word debris reference

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: in college.

15
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 2: Football so soon.

16
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: But when it's all said and done on Saturday, some

17
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: really crazy stuff will have happened. Well, we're going to

18
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: try and foretell as much of it as we can

19
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: on this show this evening.

20
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:50,840
Speaker 2: So full Week eight predictions.

21
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: I've got sort of a mid season grade for not

22
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: only the most surprising things and teams that we've seen,

23
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: but some crushing disappointments out there. With all the positive,

24
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: we got to toss in some negative. All that plus

25
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: a brand spanking new JP poll. I've showed it to

26
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: one person aside from our production team. Chris Hassel at

27
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: CBS Sports HQ got to look at it, and to

28
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: his credit, he kept his mouth shut. I'm going to

29
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: appear with him on HQ tomorrow, so I gave him

30
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: a little sneak peek. But I gave him a sneak

31
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: peak because there are some teams and I think we

32
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: all know who we're talking about here, that we have

33
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: not been quite as high on as maybe our AP

34
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: brethren have been high on. Well, here's the benefit of that.

35
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 1: When those teams lose and the AP has to adjust

36
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: and we can just keep him.

37
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 2: Right where we already had them because we were right.

38
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: They are correcting, the market corrected to come meet us.

39
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: All that, plus we got some added best bets. Look,

40
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 1: I know last week was more Rama Noodle Depressed than

41
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: Rama Noodle Express. I feel very very good, and by me,

42
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: I say the model. The model feels very good about

43
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: games this week, So we'll add that on at the

44
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: end of the show. Also, I did not get around

45
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: to announcing the destination for Week eight of the Late

46
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: Kit Renaissance Tour. The other night on Sunday night, there

47
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: were some scheduling conflicts we had to figure out.

48
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: That's why.

49
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: So Friday, I've got a little thing to take care of. Therefore,

50
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: I can't be flying anywhere, and so Saturday we're gonna

51
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 1: keep it a little closer to home. The Renaissance Tour

52
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: is headed down the road to Tuscaloose, Alabama, the third

53
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: Saturday in October.

54
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,399
Speaker 2: Rivalry. Listen, I grew up being taught about this thing.

55
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: Cigar smoke wafting over the stadium, even though it's a

56
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: no smoking environment. If Alabama wins the game, I've been

57
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: around far more Alabama wins than Alabama losses. In this one,

58
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: Tennessee versus Alabama, we got treated phenomenally phenomenal last time

59
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: we were in Tuscaloosa, So we look forward to being

60
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: back down there at late kick Josh is where you

61
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: want to be Twitter and Instagram, And with that in mind,

62
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: let's dive into the show tonight. College Football Week eight.

63
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: Some sneaky games here, some very sneaky games. I know

64
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: they're not all Top ten versus Top ten, but let's

65
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: dive in. Shall we a number of things to keep

66
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 1: your eye on? First off, does anyone want to raise

67
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: your hand and inform me that you have a good

68
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: read on which LSU team is going to show up.

69
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: LSU at Ole Miss. The line has been all over

70
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: the place. I've seen some tens. I've seen some eight

71
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: and a halfs.

72
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: Right now, we got it at nine at Caesar's over

73
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: under seventy six.

74
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 2: Won't be fooled again there.

75
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: Actually, this probably is the game that'll fly over the total.

76
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: So this is the Saturday three thirty game on CBS.

77
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: I want to remind you of something. The SEC West

78
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: still hangs in the balance. Even though you watched Alabama

79
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: decidedly handle Ole Miss already, you need to remember something.

80
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: That's the only game Ole Miss is lost and Bama's

81
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: already got another SEC loss. So if Bama, let's say

82
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: we're too down the road lose well Tennessee would be

83
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: a little bit of a surprise. But if they were

84
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: to lose to Auburn, Aubert's playing good football right now.

85
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about Auburn a little bit later on.

86
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: You know, if Old Miss runs the table, Old Miss

87
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: will go to Atlanta. So that's still hanging in the balance.

88
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: So you got that, then you also have the totally

89
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: unanswerable question in my humble opinion of which LSU team

90
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: is going to show up.

91
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 2: Here the old Miss run defense the other night? Did

92
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 2: you notice this?

93
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: I noticed because I was still on the field watching

94
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: how many times Hendon Hooker and that Tennessee run game

95
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: seemed to get stuffed and they couldn't get anything going

96
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: on the inside. Now, they still ran for two hundred

97
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: and twenty two yards, but it took him fifty times

98
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: to do it. It's about four point four per Carrey.

99
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 1: But the long the longest run that Tennessee had against

100
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 1: Ole Miss the other night was twenty six yards. The

101
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: reason I mentioned that, of course, is because LSU just

102
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 1: ran for about a quarter and a half a mile

103
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: on Florida. Judging by the rest of the season, Don't

104
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: we have to treat that as a throwaway result? Don't

105
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: we have to treat that as the exception to the rule?

106
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 1: Or alternatively, Am I to believe that the LSU ground

107
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: game all of a sudden figure things out in week

108
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: seven of the season with the job on the line

109
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: of the head coach.

110
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 2: I don't know.

111
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: I say all that to say this, the answer probably

112
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: lies somewhere in between. If LSU's run game last week

113
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: was a mirage. Then I feel really good about ole

114
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:57,119
Speaker 1: Miss here. I also question this, so you would think

115
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: with the with the head coach knowing he's out, you

116
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 1: would think, well, then that kind of loosens everything up

117
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 1: around the program. Some people look at looseness as good,

118
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: some people look at it as bad.

119
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: I don't think there's any way to gauge.

120
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: Which LSU team is going to show up, is what

121
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. So I would never want to be

122
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 1: betting on this game. The model loves Old Miss. I

123
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: mean it thinks Old Miss is going to cover decisively.

124
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: I'll go with the model. There's so much variance. Ole

125
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 1: Miss could win this thing by twenty eight, they could

126
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: lose by three. Wouldn't be surprised either way. I will

127
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: very sheepishly take ole Miss to win and cover. Don't

128
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: feel great about it now. The next game is probably

129
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: the pound for pound best game of the afternoon. I

130
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: have a bias here. It is Oklahoma State at Iowa State.

131
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: Iowa State is either favored by six and a half

132
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 1: or seven, depending on where you're looking. Now at Caesars,

133
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: we can get it at six and a half right now,

134
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: very noteworthy for later in the show total Where's it at?

135
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: About forty seven? So this is a Saturday three thirty

136
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,799
Speaker 1: game Eastern Time on Fox. Classic example, Classic example, Guys,

137
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: when we do the JP pole later in the show

138
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: of the age old adage that you are not always

139
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: what your record says you are in this sport in

140
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: college football, I've never had a problem with it in

141
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: pro sports. In college you are not always what your

142
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: record says you are. But for those of you out

143
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: there still unconvinced, this is a two loss Iowa State

144
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: team that's an undefeated Oklahoma State team. You see which

145
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: team's favored by a touchdown, and you may say, well,

146
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: josh ye home Field. Okay, well home Field's about three

147
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: points here max so subtractive. You still got three to

148
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: four points separating a two loss team in front of

149
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: an undefeated team. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you're Oklahoma State.

150
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: It just serves as a divider between the rankings conversation

151
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: and the ratings conversation Iowa State's two losses, though I

152
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: bring up the records because of this. The losses are losses.

153
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: It's not like you can rehash them or re litigate them.

154
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: But We're looking at this game, and this game is

155
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 1: still a few days away, and a lot of folks

156
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: are going to look at those two losses and say, well,

157
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: because of that and then fill in blank, and that

158
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: will I kind of booy their prediction Saturday. I want

159
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: you to remember something post game when expectancy is a

160
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: great stat to follow, and that basically is taking all

161
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: the available data that was recorded during a game and

162
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: then saying, if this game were to have been played

163
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: out standard style, what would that team's percentage win expectancy be.

164
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: Iowa State to give you an idea, Iowa State loses

165
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: to Iowa. I think it was twenty seven to seventeen

166
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: the final. Based off the numbers that were put up

167
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: in that game, Iowa State would have a ninety one

168
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: percent postgame win expectancy. Translation, they turned the ball over

169
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: a whole lot and blew the game. That's the translation.

170
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter. A loss is a loss.

171
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: Baylor.

172
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: They went to Baylor and lost, same deal, turnover problems.

173
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: They've got a fifty four percent postgame win expectancy there.

174
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: So Iowa State based on the numbers, now, and that's

175
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: all we use for a predictive.

176
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: Kind of model. They should be undefeated. That's what the

177
00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: numbers would say.

178
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: So the numbers look at this and our model, for example,

179
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: looks at this game, and it sees a wider gap

180
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: than even six and a half when accounting for home

181
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: field advantage. It's going to be a grinder now because

182
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: what I look at is I look at the fact

183
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: that Oklahoma States defense is not giving up much of anything,

184
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: and so Iowa State, like, even though we think there's

185
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: a bigger gap than that, Iowa States still got to

186
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: put points on the board. And I don't know that

187
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: they're going to be able to just consistently run the ball.

188
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,679
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State's defense right now giving up about three yards

189
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: per carry, So you know what that means.

190
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 2: It means Iowa.

191
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: State's going to have to have some success through the

192
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: air throwing the ball. Question for me is on the

193
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: other side, though, question becomes, well, how much success are

194
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,719
Speaker 1: they really going to need? Cause as much as Oklahoma

195
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: States defense may keep the scoring down, I don't know

196
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: that their offense is going to be able to do

197
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: much of anything. We like Iowa State to win, we

198
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: like Iowa State to cover. It's going to end up

199
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 1: being on the ram and Noodle Express. It's one of

200
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: our best bets of the week. One of the worst

201
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: bets is having an itch on the end of your

202
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: nose as you're live. But it sure beats losing your

203
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: voie on air, so we'll take it. Clemson is at

204
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: pitt Hey, I want any of you who are cryogenically

205
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: frozen in August to thaw yourselves.

206
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 2: Come to the table. I got some information for you.

207
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: Pitt is a three and a half point favorite or

208
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: three point favorite against Clemson. Yeah, in football, that's right, people,

209
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: in football. They're favored by three. This game Saturday, it's

210
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: three thirty Eastern time. It's on ESPN. It's the first

211
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: time that Dabbo and Clemson have ever visited Hines Field.

212
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 1: Dabbo said he's only been to Pittsburgh one time in

213
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: his life, so this is unfamiliar territory in many different ways.

214
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: Clemson as an underdog, this is playing with your mind,

215
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: isn't it. A lot of you who bet on this.

216
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,239
Speaker 1: You've watched pitt and you've watched.

217
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 2: Clemson, and you're saying the same thing everyone else is.

218
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: Pitt is better than Clemson. Pitt's gonna beat Clemson.

219
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 2: But see, you thought in the back of your mind

220
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 2: the whole time you were going to be given.

221
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 1: Points while you bet Pitt. Nope, you gotta lay them.

222
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, there's that voice. I

223
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: don't know how faint or loud it is, but all

224
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: of you have to some degree that voice in the

225
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: back of your head right now.

226
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 2: And it's say.

227
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: Clemson as an underdog, Clemson disrespect for Clemson.

228
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 2: I don't really care.

229
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: I mean, do you understand what streaks we have currently?

230
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: Clemson is oh for their last seven against the number.

231
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: Pitt is six and one against the spread their last seven.

232
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 1: I never talked about those trends because they're largely made

233
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: to be broken, but I think the trends are going

234
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: to continue. Here here are the problems that Clemson will

235
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: really have to overcome if they are to win this game.

236
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 2: You know that they're not going to consistently be.

237
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: Able to run the ball on this pit defense, which

238
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: means they're gonna have to throw the ball and win. Okay,

239
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: that's basic, that's common sense. But here's the difference. This

240
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 1: is a pit offense that can force them to trade points.

241
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: This isn't one of those games where Clemson can afford

242
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: to sit around and put seventeen on the board and

243
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: just defense their way to a win.

244
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 2: I'm not saying. I mean, I'm not.

245
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: Saying Pitt's going to get to that average they have

246
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: right now forty eight points per game. But I am

247
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: telling you it's going to be somewhere between seventeen and

248
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: forty eight pick can score. If I'm Clemson, I'm thinking

249
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: to feel safe winning this game, I'll probably need twenty

250
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: seven and twenty eight. Do we feel confident they're gonna

251
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: get there? And maybe more than that, but do we

252
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: feel confident they're gonna get there? I don't, So I

253
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: don't feel good about them trading points. I don't think

254
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 1: those dynamics, those psychological ooh clemsons and underdog dynamics work

255
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: because they were an underdog in week one, or actually

256
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: they weren't, so it should.

257
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 2: Have worked the opposite way. It didn't.

258
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: I forget what I just said. That made no sense.

259
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: This is not gonna matter. Like I think Pitt is

260
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 1: three point favorite here, I like them buy way more

261
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: than that. So I'll take Pitt to win. I'll take

262
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: Pitt to cover. I don't worry about anyone overlooking anyone. None,

263
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: None of that stuff even works this way into the equation.

264
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: Southern col Is at Notre Name. This is a Saturday,

265
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: seven thirty Eastern time game. This one's on NBC Weather Alert,

266
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,719
Speaker 1: one of our first of the season weather alert. I

267
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: don't know that any precipitation is expected. I just want

268
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: you to know that a bunch of kids who have

269
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: already lost their head coach from Southern California are going

270
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: to be playing in temperatures at kickoff.

271
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 2: Mid forty load of mid forties. It doesn't sound fun.

272
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what really makes it sound less

273
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: fun for Southern cal They have no interest in stopping

274
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: the run, and Notre Dame has every intention of running

275
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: the ball on them forty four. It could be fifty

276
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: times if they have to. So this is a rested

277
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: Notre Dame team. They are refocused, They've still got all

278
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: their goals in front of them. Largely they're five and one.

279
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: Good stretch run here. You take your chances. You never

280
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 1: know what could happen because of those factors. I think

281
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: this is pretty academic. We love Notre Dame. It was

282
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: our best bet of the week still is. Can't believe

283
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: this thing's still available.

284
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 2: At six and a half.

285
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: We think Notre Dame wins this by double digits, so

286
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: we'll take the Irish to win.

287
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 2: We'll take the Irish to cover.

288
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: And I think coming out of this game, if that

289
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 1: were to happen, you'll have some people, especially if they

290
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: get quarterback figured out, if they look like they have

291
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: a plan and then they executed at quarterback in this game,

292
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: because they've been using three of them, so if they

293
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,719
Speaker 1: do that in this game, that'll be sort of the

294
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: sneaky water cooler conversation.

295
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 2: It'll be Notre Dame.

296
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: You know, it took a little while, but maybe they

297
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: got their act together. Hey, Notre Dame's not that team

298
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: you want to be playing right now. There's one of

299
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: those every year. It could be Notre Dame this year.

300
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: And lastly, maybe the best line of scrimmage game of

301
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 1: the day.

302
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 2: Think about this Oregon at UCLA.

303
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: Now, these teams both have blemishes on their resume, but

304
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,839
Speaker 1: especially West of the Rockies, this is the best line

305
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: of scrimmage game that you guys may see all year.

306
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: Easily on Saturday, it's a three point thirty eastern kickoff.

307
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: That means just afternoon local time there, fans have been

308
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 1: on Anthony Brown.

309
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 2: I got a little theory working here. I was thinking

310
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 2: about it driving in today.

311
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: So some of the Oregon fans have been less than

312
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: kind to Anthony Brown. The quarterback for Oregon hasn't been

313
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 1: performing up to expectation level. And that's where I want

314
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: to stop. I want you to think about something. There's

315
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: give and take. Every time a head coach makes a decision,

316
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: whether it's Nick Saban or Mario Christovaul, there's always a

317
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: risk reward. So a lot of these coaches close off

318
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: practice to media and fans. Lincoln Riley has done this,

319
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: Mario does it, like all the most all the coaches

320
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: do it. I'm not singling out anyone, but what I'm

321
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: telling you is there is a reward there. The reward

322
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: is you get to keep your program cloak in a

323
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: veil of secrecy.

324
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 2: That's good for you. But here's the trade off.

325
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: The trade off is it creates this vacuum of a

326
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: lack of information out there on Twitter, on message boards,

327
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: talk radio. Guess what fills the vacuum. Misfounded Hype fills

328
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: the vacuum. And so because media has not been there

329
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: to lay eyeballs on guys, and fans have not been

330
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: there to lay eyeballs on guys and realize he may

331
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: not be as good as I think he is. They

332
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: just run with best case scenario, and then when your

333
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: players don't live up the best case scenario, guess what happens.

334
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: They're not booing the coach, They're booing the player. So

335
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: I don't condone the booing. I'm not sitting here booing

336
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: any college player. I am telling you, though much was

337
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: much as was the case the other night at Nielan.

338
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: I'm not condoning fans throwing trash on the field. I

339
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: think there may be more than just one direct cause

340
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: for it. You look at players getting booed. I don't

341
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: know that if we had a lot more access to

342
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: watch them and base our own expectation lefl off something

343
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: more tangible, that it would happen as much. I could

344
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: be off base there, But let's get back to this

345
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: game for a second. Really good game on tap could

346
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: be the best game of the day for all I know.

347
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: Oregon has struggled with lesser teams at the line of

348
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: scrimmage See Oregon. They've recruited and developed to a level

349
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: where they should have an advantage either light to moderate

350
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: advantage on the line of scrimmage, especially in the Conference,

351
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: may not be the case against UCLA. And as much

352
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: as I just kind of semi defended Anthony Brown, I

353
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: haven't seen reason to think that offense is about to click.

354
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: And so I think UCLA, what are they favored by two?

355
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 2: Right now?

356
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: Our model has this like dead even so it thinks

357
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: the numbers right, I'll lean UCLA to win minus the points.

358
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: That'd be a big win if Oregon can get it.

359
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: But I'll lean Ucla minus the points. Those are some

360
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: of the games, not all of them. We'll talk about

361
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: some more Thursday. Those are some of the games that

362
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: we're watching here in week eight.

363
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 2: All right. Well, so from THEBAMA.

364
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: Online dot com message board the other night, good people

365
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: over there. People always some constructive criticism coming our way.

366
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: And one guy said, you know, I love Late Kick,

367
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: but man, he just talks about academy too much. Well,

368
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: like I was talking about there, with closing practices, there's

369
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: a trade off. You can either have a good, solid

370
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: ad read or you can have to pay for the show.

371
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: I think we all know where we're all gonna opt there. Plus,

372
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: Academy is a partner that we have chosen to do

373
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: business with. It's not like we're shoving anything down your throat. However,

374
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: most of you have been very receptive of this. So

375
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: here's all I want to tell you. I'm gonna be

376
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: in Tuscaloosive, speak of the Devil. I'm gonna be in

377
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: tuscal Loosive Saturday. But there's gonna be a great tailgate

378
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: scene in Ames, Iowa. There will be what are we

379
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: talking about. We're talking about a great tailgate scene. Notre

380
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: Dame cool Weather Irish coming off of buy Trojans coming

381
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: into town. Imagine the scene. And then just put Academy

382
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: labels on top of every single item that's out there,

383
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: because if you need it for tailgating, they have it

384
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: At Academy Sports and Outdoors. They are the official outdoor

385
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: sporting good supplier of the Big twelve of the sec

386
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: US brand. Right here Late Kick, which you know, selfishly

387
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: we care about a little bit more than the other two,

388
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: to be honest with you. But if you can't get

389
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: to a store or you don't feel like fighting the crowds,

390
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: and I am told they've been very crowded as of late,

391
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: So that's good news. Just go to academy dot com.

392
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: They've got all the tailgating hookup that you need. Also listen,

393
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: if you don't feel like paying hundreds of dollars for clothes,

394
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: just get those at Academy too. I mean, follow my lead,

395
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: just get those clothes at Academy too. So we appreciate

396
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: Academy making the show possible. We're at the midpoint of

397
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 1: the season right now.

398
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 2: One of the.

399
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: Worst times of my life was mid term progress reports

400
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: report cars. It was just horrific, just a terrible, terrible time.

401
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: It was never a good news day for me. Most

402
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: of the time it was because teachers had it out

403
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: for me.

404
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 2: Let's make that clear.

405
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 1: But report card was never the best of times down

406
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: in Harris County, Georgia. However, there have been some surprise

407
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: teams out there, so I want to take a little

408
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: time here at the midpoint of the season the biggest

409
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: surprises to me. You guys may have far different answers

410
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: than me on this, so you can fill in the

411
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: blank and you can read along with me. Here follow

412
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: along the biggest surprises for you this year.

413
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 2: Michigan State. How are they not right at the top

414
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,959
Speaker 2: of your list. Other coaches have got to hate this.

415
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: I guarantee you some administrations out there secretly hate what

416
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 1: Mel Tucker's doing. Now, on the surface, they probably good

417
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: for you, Mel.

418
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 2: Good for you, jerk.

419
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: And the reason why they probably feel a little animous

420
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 1: deep down in their heart is because Mel.

421
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 2: Tucker's bought the flash Pass.

422
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 1: Like, I'm a guy who did not grow up going

423
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: to six Flags very often. When I finally got to

424
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: go to six Flags, I get online, I want to

425
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 1: buy my tickets, and I see this option, the flash Pass.

426
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 1: And if you've ever been to six Flags over Georgia,

427
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: the lines are incredibly long. The flash pass lets you

428
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: bypass the lines. Now, you've got a different worldview than me.

429
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,959
Speaker 1: You may think that this should be illegal, but I

430
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: believe in cutting in line, and I bought the flash Pass.

431
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 1: You got to pay about one hundred bucks, but I figure,

432
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: I'm already gonna pay that in parking anyway. Why not

433
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 1: shell it out and get to ride unlimited rides. Mel

434
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: Tucker bought the college football flash Pass. He has cut

435
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: so many coaches in line, He's cut so many teams

436
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: in line. They had a plan with the transfer portal.

437
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: They were very purposeful in the way they attacked the

438
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 1: transfer portal. There have been some really good articles written

439
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: very recently on this about how seamlessly, at least from

440
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: the outsider's perspective, they infused.

441
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 2: That transfer portal town.

442
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: A lot of those guys are starting and contributing to

443
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: right now an undefeated record for Michigan State. And you

444
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: notice how when mel Tucker got there, this is his

445
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: second year, and they had the COVID stuff to deal with.

446
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,400
Speaker 1: They never should have gotten off to a good start.

447
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: They never settled into their role. The role for Michigan

448
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: State was supposed to be. Okay, we think you overpaid

449
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: for a head coach from Colorado. He doesn't have a

450
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 1: ton of head coaching experience. You're already down as a program,

451
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 1: Your roster's a little depleted. You don't measure up to

452
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: the other big boys here. Take your lumps, go ahead

453
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: and make a bowl game, like have a nice, little,

454
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: feel good six or seven wins season, and we'll Tucker

455
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: just he basically took his index finger and he put

456
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: it up to the lips of all the detractors. Then

457
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: he kind of backhanded him for good measure. Michigan State's

458
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: undefeated They're gonna host Michigan, who also could be undefeated

459
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks. Biggest surprise team in the

460
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: country right now for me. Kentucky is a big surprise

461
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 1: team for me. Don't let the Georgia loss fool you.

462
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: I in case you hadn't noticed George's beating a lot

463
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: of teams, but preseason, if you were to have looked

464
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: at this stretch on Kentucky's schedule, and this is a

465
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 1: six week stretch, these five games happened in a six

466
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: week stretch, how many of you would have picked them

467
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,120
Speaker 1: to be five and one against this stretch They had Missouri,

468
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: they go to South Carolina, then they had Florida, LSU

469
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: at Georgia. All those points spreads, they were either an

470
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: underdog or very very small. And yet they're five to

471
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 1: one and the only loss was to Georgia, and you

472
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: just saw that that was the most recent.

473
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 2: So I don't think many people picked it to be

474
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:52,199
Speaker 2: five and one.

475
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: If you did, congratulations, But I'll tell you this, they

476
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: weren't even taking care of the ball in some of

477
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 1: those games. Kentucky's not supposed to be able to do that.

478
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: The teams with loaded rosters and just supreme talent edges.

479
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 1: They could be a little more careless and still end

480
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: up winning after fumbling the ball away.

481
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: A couple of times.

482
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: Kentucky's not supposed to be able to be minus three

483
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: turnovers on the road and still beat South Carolina, but

484
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: they did. And they beat Missouri, and they beat Florida

485
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: despite not throwing for one hundred yards. They were all

486
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: kind of red flags in these box scores, and Mark

487
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: Stoop's team just found a.

488
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 2: Way to win anyway.

489
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 1: So here they are and now they could be favored

490
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: the rest of the way. Like Kentucky, you need to

491
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: get yourself comfortable with the fact that this is going

492
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: to be a double digit win team this year and

493
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: they're going to visit probably a Bowl location that they're

494
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: very unfamiliar with.

495
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 2: Congratulations.

496
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: I know they don't want to be congratulated right now,

497
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: but it's midterm report card time. Congratulations to the Kentucky Wildcats.

498
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 1: I've got Arkansas on this list too. Arkansas suffered some

499
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 1: losses recently that doesn't really diminish any of the shine

500
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: that it takes to get on this list for me,

501
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: because they even though they lost recently, they've lost to Georgia.

502
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 1: They've lost a Old Miss by one point. They lost

503
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: to Auburn heart fought game the other night. They still

504
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: beat Texas convincingly. They still beat A and M convincingly.

505
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: I think it was more convincing on the field than

506
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: in the box score. Arkansas so hard to judge because

507
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 1: people don't know how to properly interpret the schedule. Like

508
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: if I gave Coastal Carolina the schedule, they undefeated, of

509
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: course they're not. Conversely, if I gave Arkansas Coastal Carolina schedule,

510
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: guess where they are.

511
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 2: They're undefeated in all likelihood.

512
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: And so I say that to say, what are they

513
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: going to do the rest of the way? Because they

514
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: have been a pleasant surprise for me. What are they

515
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: going to do the rest of the way. They play

516
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: Arkansas Pine Bluff Saturday should be a dub that will

517
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: put them at five and four. That'll put them at

518
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: So if they lose Tobama. Let's say they beat Pine Bluff,

519
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: they lose Tobama, you're looking at the remainder of their

520
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,640
Speaker 1: schedule here. That leaves Mississippi State at LSU and Missouri.

521
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: Let's just assume that they are five and four going

522
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: into that stretch that puts them probably six and six

523
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: worst case, I would venture to guess, and I would

524
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,719
Speaker 1: say eight and four is a possibility at that point.

525
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: And look at the wind totals in the preseason, people

526
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: didn't think Arkansas was even gonna make a Bowl game.

527
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: So this is a really good, really good situation to

528
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: being even with the recent.

529
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 2: Losses for Sam Pittman and company. How about Cincinnati.

530
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: Is it a surprise when you've won every game that

531
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: you're favored in because they've been favored the entire way,

532
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: even the Power Five games they were in. They were

533
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: favored at Indiana, they covered. They were favored out on

534
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: the road, no less against Notre Dame they covered. A

535
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 1: lot of you are trying to ride off those wins.

536
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: I'm not one of them. Out of all the people

537
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: walking God's green earth, I'm the one who ends up

538
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 1: carrying the water for Cincinnati.

539
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 2: Never would have expected it.

540
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: In a million years, but yet here I am. If

541
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: it's so easy to just win the games you're favored in,

542
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: why didn't Alabama do it? Why didn't Ohio State do it?

543
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: Why is Clemson not doing it? It's not that easy,

544
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: It's the answer it's not always easy. Some people badly

545
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,479
Speaker 1: misinterpret what a point spread is. I mean a point spread.

546
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: While it's not meant to just divide the actions fifty

547
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: to fifty. It's not that simple. It for broad strokes

548
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 1: purposes is that simple. It's not like it's an actual

549
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: stat it's not a metric. It doesn't impact a football game.

550
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: Humans do, and in most cases they're very young humans.

551
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 2: We're not all Brigham young out here.

552
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 1: And so I mean, you get that weight of expectations

553
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: that the Cincinnatis in the world are not used to.

554
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: And they still got a long way to go. But

555
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,719
Speaker 1: I'm impressed by it now. I know they're not lacking

556
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 1: for credit right now, but I'll give them credit.

557
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 2: I'm impressed by it. I'll tell you what I'm interested

558
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 2: in seeing.

559
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 1: Though they're ranked number two colin my AP source, I

560
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: think they're ranked number two in the AP right now.

561
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm interested in seeing when that first playoff ranking comes out,

562
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 1: which I think is next week, are they going to

563
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: be that high, Because if they're that high, then they're

564
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: not falling out if they go and feed it. I mean,

565
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: I don't think that, however, if they're sitting number five

566
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: or number six. You will have an ally in that

567
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: pro g five argument that you've never had before, and

568
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,479
Speaker 1: you're looking at him. I don't know how excited that

569
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 1: makes you, but you're looking at him with the sunshine.

570
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: We have to have the rain most disappointing teams so

571
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: far in twenty twenty one. This is not going to

572
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: be exclusively a Clemson Tiger segment because I got three

573
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 1: more teams to talk about, but I'm leading with Clemson.

574
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 2: You saw it start to play out in Week one.

575
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: We were at the game in Charlotte and they couldn't

576
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: muster an offensive touchdown.

577
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 2: They put three on the board total, and you looked.

578
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: At it, and at the time, if you wanted to

579
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 1: be a glass half full sort of fan, you said, well,

580
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: this is Georgia. Georgia will do that to a lot

581
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: of teams. Now, actually a lot of more teams have

582
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: done that to Clemson. Maybe not quite to that degree,

583
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 1: but a lot more teams have done that to Clemson.

584
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: Even when they beat South Carolina State, it didn't look good.

585
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 1: They barely beat Georgia Tech, it didn't look good. Almost

586
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: got beat by Georgia Tech, needed a goal line stand.

587
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: And then of course you got the loss at NC State,

588
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: and so they just beat Boston College. They went to

589
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: Syracuse and stumbled their way to a win. And it's

590
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,160
Speaker 1: just there's been no point this year where they've looked impressive,

591
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: no point, And now they're going to pitt and people

592
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: are scared to bet against them because they think, all

593
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the light switch is just going to

594
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 1: come on. I don't know how you expect it to happen.

595
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: Crazy things have happened. I don't know how you expected.

596
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: Here's what I love to know, Dabos Winny's been doing

597
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 1: a lot of talking because he's been asked questions. He's

598
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: not just randomly run in his mouth. He's been doing

599
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: a lot of talking about the transfer portal and what

600
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,120
Speaker 1: needs to change. You know what the big problems are.

601
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that.

602
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 2: I think.

603
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a big mystery what Clemson lacks

604
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: right now. What I'd love to know is how early

605
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 1: the Clemson staff knew they had trouble on their hands.

606
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: How early because they sounded really confident in the preseason,

607
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: and I've listened to coaches before where their level of

608
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 1: excitement didn't quite match what the preseason magazine culture was spewing,

609
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: and it's because they knew more about their team.

610
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 2: Dabos sounded ultra confident.

611
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: I think this has genuinely been a surprise to them,

612
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 1: and I don't know that they're done losing.

613
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 2: So I'm at this point it is what it is.

614
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: I'm excited or kind of interested, I guess would be

615
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 1: the better word. To see how they handle this upcoming,

616
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: not only the early signing day, but as we all know,

617
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 1: when the season ends, transfer portal time KICKSIM think it's

618
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: going to be a little different around Clemson South Carolina

619
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: staying in the ACC. North Carolina has got to be

620
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: right behind Clemson on this list twenty twenty one, contrary

621
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 1: to what Mack Brown has suggested, had every reason to

622
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: be circled for North Carolina.

623
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,479
Speaker 2: I know what his point is.

624
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: Mac Brown's point has been, well, yeah, we haven't lived

625
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: up to your expectation, and he's pointing to the media,

626
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 1: and I make this point all the time, and so maybe.

627
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 2: It was you that's failed and not us. It's you

628
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 2: you shouldn't have expected.

629
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 1: So much from us. Well, yeah, I kind of think

630
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 1: we should have. Even I'm saying we here, I'm lumping

631
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: myself in with the casuals. Here, I am immersing myself

632
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: in preview magazine culture and defending it. You returned twenty

633
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: one starters, you had Sam Howell coming back, a favorable schedule.

634
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: There is no reason that anything less than a trip

635
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: to the ACC Championship Game should have.

636
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 2: Been expected from this team.

637
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: Now pause that, because that's where most people were on

638
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: North Carolina. Now, imagine, as I said the other day,

639
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: if we were sitting here in August, a couple of

640
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 1: weeks before the season starts. The talking point at the

641
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: time was, well, the ACC Championship Game, it'd be nice

642
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: for them to make it there. Now, that's as far

643
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 1: as they can make it, because then that have to

644
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 1: play Clemson, and of course they're not going to be Clemson. Ah,

645
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: what if I told you a friend, I just rubbed

646
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: the crystal ball. I didn't see the whole season, but

647
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 1: I saw Clemson season. They're already gonna have two losses

648
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: before Halloween. They're gonna be an underdog against Pitt and

649
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: dj Uyangolila is not gonna be hurt. He's going to

650
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: be part of that equation. And they're going to be

651
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,479
Speaker 1: a two loss team. That's an underdog to pit How

652
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: would you have felt? How quickly would you have rushed

653
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: to the window and North Carolina to make the playoff?

654
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 2: I would have. I absolutely I would have been that sucker.

655
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 2: I would have. And yet they can't get out of

656
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: their own way.

657
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 1: Miami could be on this list, North Carolina's on this list,

658
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: Clemson on this list. Everyone has looked for several years

659
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 1: now at Clemson and they've wondered, if they ever get

660
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: out of the way, which team would be ready to strike.

661
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: It turns out the answer is none of them. None

662
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: of them. Crippling disappointment for multiple programs in the ACC.

663
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 2: Right now, What about Florida? Where are things with Florida left?

664
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 2: Right up? Down?

665
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: No one seems to know where's the program? Forget just

666
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: the team this year? Where's the program? I spoke my

667
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: piece on my biggest concern about Florida the other night

668
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: and how maybe Dan Mullen checked out a little bit

669
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: last year for NFL purposes, never checked back in. But

670
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: you can never really prove that that's just a working theory.

671
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: But I will tell you this before the cocktail party

672
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: next week. Georgia already has a cushion I mean, Georgia

673
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: doesn't plan on losing that game, obviously, but they can

674
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: afford to lose the game and have it really still

675
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: not matter as long as they take care of business

676
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 1: the rest of the way. This is a result of

677
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: Dan Mullen not making critical moves that needed to be

678
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: made this past summer. This past spring, he chose to

679
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: continue to ride with Todd Grantham. There is no explaining

680
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: how horrifically bad and unprepared they were to play LSU

681
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 1: last week. LSU didn't figure out how to run the

682
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 1: ball in four or five days. Florida wasn't ready to play,

683
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: and so you can put that on kids if you

684
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: want to. I was listening to some of their players

685
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: post game, and credit to them because they were as

686
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: diplomatic as possible in saying, we were doing what we

687
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 1: were told, we were executing our assignments.

688
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 2: Now, I'm sure that it's sort of a meet in

689
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 2: the middle deal.

690
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure Florida didn't play mistake free assignments sound football.

691
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: Obviously that's the case, But I do think the general

692
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: theme there is those players know they were unprepared, like

693
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: those players weren't put in a position to be able

694
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: to execute a workable strategy anyway.

695
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 2: That's one game. But as for where Florida is right now, I.

696
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: Mean, are we kidding? They're already three losses before the

697
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: bye week. You know that they still have other losable

698
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 1: games coming up. I was doing radio today and it

699
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: kind of hit me that there could be something coming

700
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: down the road.

701
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 2: You see Florida State.

702
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: While their record's bad, they've been playing better football. I mean,

703
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: I think it's very clear Florida State's playing as good

704
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 1: now as they have been. You know, Florida if they

705
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: check out, don't think at all it's beneath them.

706
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: To lose to Florida State at the end of the year.

707
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 2: That would trigger change. I believe that.

708
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: And by change, I'm not quite sure what I mean

709
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: what kind of degree of change we're talking about.

710
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 2: But if they've already got.

711
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 1: This resume to be forgotten and then you tack on

712
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: a loss to Florida State at the end of the year,

713
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: that will be not only tough to swallow, they will

714
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: refuse to ingest that down at Florida. I don't know

715
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: what that means, kind of speaking cryptically on purpose, because

716
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: I don't know truly how they feel internally about Mullen.

717
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: I'm not a fire mulling guy. I am a mate

718
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: wholesale changes guy. But I haven't taken the added step

719
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: that some people have. But you and I both know

720
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: there comes a point of no return sometimes, and I

721
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: don't know if a loss to Florida State would be

722
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: that point of no return, but I sure don't know

723
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: if it wouldn't be either.

724
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 2: Is that fence riding enough? I think it is. Last

725
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,719
Speaker 2: team's Wisconsin. I was high on Wisconsin and they just

726
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 2: they've let me down. It all went sideways.

727
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: In Week one, they played Penn State and they won

728
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: the box score, lost the game.

729
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 2: It was one of those kinds of games.

730
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: And then the Notre Dame game, they turned the ball

731
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: over like half a dozen times.

732
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 2: They lose forty one to thirteen.

733
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 1: They led the game in the fourth quarter and lost

734
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 1: forty one to thirteen.

735
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 2: How do you do that? You got to try to

736
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 2: do that?

737
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: And then they minus two turnovers against Michigan. I'm not

738
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: sure turnovers lost the game thirty eight to seventeen, one

739
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: point three yards per. Kerry probably had a lot more

740
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: to do with that. But here we are, We're already

741
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: a three and three team. They've got to go to

742
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: Produce Saturday. I like Purdue there.

743
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 2: They still got Iowa on the schedule.

744
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: Listen, none of these games are easy when you're playing

745
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: as ineffectively and efficiently as Wisconsin is. They got to

746
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: go to Rutgers, they get Northwestern Nebraska at Minnesota. They

747
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: gott have three or four more losses. This could be bad,

748
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: really really bad. And Wisconsin, I know it's off the

749
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: radar a little bit. It's not a big public team

750
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: that's been a really disappointing team too. So those are

751
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: some of the most disappointing teams. Most surprising teams. Will

752
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: be very interested to look at the comments section here

753
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: because I think we'll have, especially for the disappointing teams,

754
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: we'll have several options that maybe I didn't even get to.

755
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 2: Lastly before we put.

756
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: Best bets out there, and I got a couple more

757
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: of them for you before we do that.

758
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 2: Here we go, let's crack the knuckles, all right, we

759
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 2: had one of them. That's good enough.

760
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 1: It is Week eight JP Pole Edition time, and we've

761
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: got some movement, but.

762
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 2: Not in like the top five or six.

763
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: In fact, the top eight remained unchanged, but but and

764
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: a big caveat here. There is movement all over the place.

765
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: After number eight. There's only one team that stayed the

766
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,719
Speaker 1: exact same as they were last week, so we got

767
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: a lot of movement here. To remind you, this is

768
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 1: not a ranking. It is not a ranking. It is

769
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: not a ranking. And by the way, this is not

770
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,279
Speaker 1: a ranking. This has nothing to do with merit or

771
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: your resume or anything. This is strictly power rating. That's

772
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: why Iowa has never been ranked inside our top five,

773
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: even though in ap World they were already ranked number two.

774
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 2: So with that in mind, we.

775
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: Care about who would be favored against two tomorrow on

776
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: a neutral field.

777
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 2: Let's start at number twenty five. I know this one's gonna.

778
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: Throw you for a loop because their record is bad.

779
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: We've still got Nebraska as one of the twenty five

780
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 1: best teams in the country. We would favor Nebraska against

781
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina tomorrow, for example. Every reputable predictive model out

782
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:48,880
Speaker 1: there would agree with that. By the way, this is

783
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: not us out on some limb. Oklahoma State has cracked.

784
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: Has cracked for the first time the JP poll. The

785
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys are at twenty four. Wake Forest about the same

786
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: at twenty three. We got Clemson dropping two spots, but

787
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: Clemson's still in here. They're at number twenty two. NC

788
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: State is up six spots at number twenty one. Now,

789
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: it should be noted this is not all a direct

790
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 1: result of what you did. Some of these teams moved

791
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: and they were on a buy. There's also movement around you,

792
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: so just keep that in mind. Baylor is at number twenty,

793
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: for example, Baylor wasn't even in the poll last week.

794
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,760
Speaker 1: Baylor's up to number twenty. Kentucky is the only team

795
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,760
Speaker 1: that has remained unchanged. They are at number nineteen. Oregon

796
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: not feeling the Dutch right now. And this is not

797
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: a quarterback situation, because the quarterback's not injured. He's in,

798
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: Anthony Brown's in. It's just the offense is ineffective right now.

799
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 1: So they're down to eighteen. But this is a team

800
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: that still has juice left. That's a team I could

801
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: easily see if they went on a run. Oregon from

802
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: a power rating standpoint, they could finish the season in

803
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: the top ten. They have that kind of rostering capability.

804
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: Arkansas still here. This is another one that will throw

805
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 1: thee You are what your record says, you are a

806
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 1: crowd for a loop. Arkansas is relative to schedule, they

807
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: are our number seventeen team right now. We've got them

808
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: ahead of several Power five undefeated teams.

809
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 2: It's all relative to who they've played.

810
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 1: Notre Dames at sixteen Irish, we feel very good about

811
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: this Saturday. Arizona State is still sitting at fifteen. Admittedly,

812
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: that's not a team we've had a very firm grasp

813
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 1: on this year. So they're at fifteen A and m

814
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 1: has vaulted eleven spots the.

815
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 2: Aggies everywhere Buck quarterback.

816
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 1: They've got the kind of talent roster that just automatically,

817
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 1: like auto slots you inside the top ten. We had

818
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 1: only dropped them as far as we had because we

819
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: thought the offense had gone off the rails. But now

820
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 1: two weeks in a row they have performed well above

821
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: expectation level, and it's really big that they did it

822
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: in an early kickoff after playing Bama. You just got

823
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: to be careful, you know, because Tennessee got really fat

824
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: on Missouri's defense too. Everyone gets fat on Missouri's defense.

825
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: So we're not going all in. The model's not going

826
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 1: all in on them. They've still got them at fourteen,

827
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: and believe it or not, for a talent roster as

828
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: loaded as A and M's is, that's still pretty low.

829
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 2: But they are climbing. Michigan State has climbed a pretty

830
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 2: simnificent am ount there too. They're at thirteen.

831
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: Look at Auburn. The model is really buy an Auburn

832
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: right now. Auburn's up at twelve. That is one of

833
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 1: the highest rated two loss teams in America, also above

834
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: several one loss and undefeated teams. How about Pitts Burns.

835
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: I never thought i'd see this. Pitt is knocking on

836
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 1: the top ten. We thought pitt would have a hard

837
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: time against I believe it was Va Tech this past weekend.

838
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: They handled them, I mean really handled them ahead of

839
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: the Clemson game. Dynamics wise, it screened let down spot

840
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,720
Speaker 1: for Pitt and they handled them. So Pitt's at number eleven.

841
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. It may get a little

842
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 1: controversial here, It shouldn't be.

843
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 2: This is a model, so.

844
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 1: I don't even think it can understand what controversy is.

845
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 1: Iowa has fallen behind Iowa State.

846
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 2: Now. I want to note something.

847
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,240
Speaker 1: Most of the predictive models out there never dropped Iowa

848
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 1: never dropped Iowa State behind Iowa. I told you earlier

849
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: when those two teams played, the post game win expectancy

850
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: percentage was in the ninety percentile range for Iowa State.

851
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 1: It was a turnover game. It counts, but in the

852
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: predictive world doesn't count nearly as much. And so Iowa

853
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 1: State I wouldn't drop. Well, we think we had Iowa nails,

854
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 1: so we didn't drop Iowa at all. The reason they're

855
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: down to ten is called some teams jumped ahead of them,

856
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,919
Speaker 1: but Iowa State, the model loved them against Kansas State.

857
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,439
Speaker 1: They feel like they like it's multiple models. The model

858
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 1: feels like Iowa State's hitting stride. I agree, and we've

859
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: got a chance to further validate that Saturday when they

860
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,799
Speaker 1: play Oklahoma State. So Iowa State's at nine. Michigan Ole,

861
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: Miss Penn State. The rest of the poll is unchanged.

862
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: Nothing else has changed. Michigan Ole, Miss Penn State is

863
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: eight through six and then five through one. Cincinnati, Oklahoma,

864
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 1: Ohio State, Alabama, and Georgia. We have a one point

865
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,280
Speaker 1: six five point gap between Georgia and Alabama right now.

866
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: One So basically, if they played in Atlanta and we

867
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: had to put to point spread on it, it would

868
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 1: be Georgia minus one and a half.

869
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 2: Is that a gap?

870
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 1: Doesn't sound like one to me. I know what the

871
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 1: talking points are out there. I just want you to

872
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: know in the power rating world what we think. I'm

873
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: interested in this because you may look at this and

874
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 1: say Cincinnati is low. No, friends, Cincinnati is insanely high.

875
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: For a G five roster to be this highly rated

876
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: in a power rating is well, it's monumental.

877
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 2: I don't know that it's ever happened in this particular poll.

878
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,280
Speaker 1: So you know, we only got one person who technically

879
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: delivers the news here. But that's noteworthy when you consider

880
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 1: the talent roster advantage that a team like Texas A

881
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 1: and M has. For example, they're all the way down

882
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: at fourteen, Cincinnati's at five.

883
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 2: It's hard.

884
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: It is extremely hard for those G five teams to

885
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,439
Speaker 1: climb that high, but Cincinnati has JP Pole is about

886
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: to get shook up because a lot of those teams

887
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: are about to start playing each other that big ten

888
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 1: round robin. You know, Michigan and Penn State and Ohio

889
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 1: State and Michigan State, They're all about to start playing

890
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: each other like bumper cars.

891
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 2: It's going to be fun.

892
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 1: Last, but not least rama Noodle Express. I'm thinking about

893
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: doing something pretty unprecedented. I'm not doing it yet, but

894
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about. I'll tell you what it is. So

895
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: let's take a look at our added best bets. We

896
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 1: already put out Notre Dame minus six and a half.

897
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: That was the first game we put out. Two more

898
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: games were moving on. Already alluded to these earlier. Tonight,

899
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: we're taking Pitt minus three at home against Clemson. If

900
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: you cannot get three, there are several threes available tonight.

901
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: If you cannot get three, we do like three and

902
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: a half. I know normally that's a very key number,

903
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 1: and it is here too. We do like three and

904
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,879
Speaker 1: a half, and we're taking Eye with State minus six

905
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: and a half. We also like seven, but there are

906
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,879
Speaker 1: plenty of six and a halfs available out there right now.

907
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 2: If you can only find seven.

908
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: I would encourage you weight because I have a sneaking

909
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: suspicion that there's going to be enough money out there

910
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: that says undefeated Oklahoma State and seven points against a

911
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 1: two loss team. I'll take that Oklahoma State will end

912
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: up being a public side Saturday. So if you can't

913
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: find a seven yeah weight, or you can't find a

914
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: six and a half yet, wait, you'll.

915
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 2: Probably get a six and a half. Shop lines have

916
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 2: multiple outs.

917
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,319
Speaker 1: Shop lines don't be settling for Joe down on the

918
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 1: corner of ninth and Broad with one twenty juice and

919
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:13,760
Speaker 1: bad numbers.

920
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 2: Shop lines.

921
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: So we got Notre Dame, Iowa State, and pitt Those

922
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: are the ones we're on right now. What I'm thinking

923
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: about doing that's unprecedented, Well it's not unprecedented. I haven't

924
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: done it this year. Is I'm thinking about double dipping

925
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. So what all that would mean is we're doubling.

926
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 2: Up on them.

927
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: So every bet is equal that we do on this show,

928
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: but sometimes we double dip on what would truly be

929
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:35,240
Speaker 1: a best bet.

930
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,920
Speaker 2: And we love Notre Dame. I mean, the dynamic is great.

931
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 1: We really feel confident Notre Dames winning by double digit Saturday,

932
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 1: so we may end up double dipping that and counting

933
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 1: it basically twice what we would normally count. All right,

934
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: we got to get out of here, and I'm going

935
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 1: to tell you why.

936
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 2: We have to get out of here, because the braves

937
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 2: are as of now still playing boy. I mean, I

938
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 2: can't even I don't even to talk about the World Series.

939
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,359
Speaker 2: It hasn't happened since I was a wee child. If

940
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 2: it happens, you will see a different side of me

941
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 2: than you've ever seen before, and you've already seen many

942
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 2: sides of me. I gotta get to watch on this.
