A lot to talk about. 11 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: So what am I even complaining about? I can take 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 2: a twenty minute nap here and there to fix things. 13 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 1: How are you? I'm doing well. 14 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 3: Look, it's been what about forty eight hours now since 15 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 3: all hell broke loose with Week six and the upsets, 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 3: and we got a bunch of questions about those, so 17 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 3: we're going to talk through a bunch of them as 18 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 3: part of today's episode. This is the Tuesday episode. If 19 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 3: you've been listening all year. If you haven't, here's the deal. 20 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 3: This is the spillover episode. So we do the reaction 21 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 3: show every Saturday night at midnight. We obviously can't get 22 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 3: to everything because we can't watch all the games. We 23 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 3: need more time to kind of digest and think, put 24 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 3: our feelings together and then really react again for a 25 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 3: second time to everything that we saw transpire. Obviously, Week 26 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 3: six was pretty jam packed on that front. So today 27 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 3: spillover episode, we've got some lingering thoughts, some games that 28 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 3: we did not get a chance to talk about to 29 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 3: the level of detail that we would normally, so we're 30 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 3: going to get into that. We also have a Verballer 31 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 3: segment that came to us courtesy overbowlers dot Com, as 32 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 3: well as a new Verballer Top twelve poll, as well 33 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 3: as a bonus set of reverbs. This is a loaded 34 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 3: episode today, mister Rubinstein. Yeah, I assume cal One I 35 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 3: went to bed. No, I actually didn't go to bed. 36 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 3: We finished recording the show. We got all our video 37 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 3: stuff and audio stuff up. The col game was still 38 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 3: going on. It was a twenty five point lead, a 39 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 3: twenty point lead in the fourth quarter, I believe was 40 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 3: the twenty five I think it was. 41 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: Something like that. Yeah, one point. It was thirty five 42 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: to ten in favor of cal in the second. 43 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: Quarter, and then it was a thirteen point lead in 44 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, and Miami kept chipping away, and there 45 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: was a targeting call that was investigated for targeting and 46 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: there was no targeting that cal fans are maybe rightfully 47 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: maybe not rightfully upset by, and there was a potential 48 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: look of illegal men men downfield, offensive lineman downfield. After 49 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 2: the fact, you saw those pictures popping up on Twitter. 50 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: I want to say it was maybe Chris Venini from 51 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 2: The Athletic posted that and a lot of people in 52 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: their feelings, and I always stand it. I've been following 53 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 2: and covering the sport for a long time. I'm not 54 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 2: going to criticize anybody for being in their feelings either way. 55 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 2: If you are playing in the middle of the night, 56 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: quite literally the middle of the night. Rhys Davis is 57 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 2: losing his not just voice, but I felt like his 58 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 2: soul was being chipped away at I felt so bad 59 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 2: for as somebody who has had serious vocal issues in 60 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: the last two years. 61 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 3: It was like two sticks rubbing together in there for 62 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 3: the poor guy. 63 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: He did it.

It was 68 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 2: tough and that was his moment. That was his like 69 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: Willis Reid, game just coming, although Willis Reid I think 70 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 2: left the game. 71 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: Very early on is flu game is what?

Now, Alabama just grabbed Kurt 113 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: Signetti to take over the program. 114 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: We might be talking. 115 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: About a team just scoring one hundred points regularly. Kurtit 116 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,799 Speaker 2: is averaging that number. 117 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 3: Kurt Signetti would be having a dunk contest down there 118 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 3: with I mean, he's got attitude and. 119 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: I love it. 120 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: Would he force the Kirby Smart retirement? 121 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: Be honest? Okay, some say yes. 122 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 3: Number eleven Iowa State, Iowa State still unbeaten. 123 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: They quietly I'm going to talk. 124 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 3: A little bit more about Iowa State YEA in their 125 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 3: game this past weekend against Baylor. Baylor historically has played 126 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 3: Iowa State pretty close. 127 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: Not in this one. Iowa State pulled away late. 128 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 3: Number ten Old Miss, oh Miss still kind of peeking 129 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 3: in now. Lost the game two weeks ago to Kentucky, 130 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 3: but one in resounding fashion twenty seven to three. It 131 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 3: could have been worse. Didn't juice over South Carolina? So 132 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 3: thoughts on that, Dan. 133 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was saying didn't juice wells, wasn't there a 134 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 2: touchback situation? I could have even looked worse for I 135 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 2: guess for South Carolina that game. 136 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: Okay. 137 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 3: Number nine Clemson eaking its way back in there. Clemson 138 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 3: has looked pretty good if fum. Being honest, I agree, 139 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 3: don't want to forget about Clemson. Number eight Tennessee. Tennessee 140 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 3: drops a couple spots by virtue of their loss again 141 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 3: went on the road, lost to Arkansaw. 142 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: That game was at night. 143 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 3: Tennessee was pretty high up in this poll a couple 144 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 3: of weeks ago. I had the number one. They never 145 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 3: were actually number one in the poll, but they were 146 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 3: clearly in the top four. 147 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: Now they are number eight. 148 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: I saw Colin Coward leather his National Championship selection. Yes, 149 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: oh I didn't know, which is fine. 150 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's still on them. He's still on Tennessee. 151 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: Oh, I have no idea. It was before okay, before 152 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 2: the loss to Arkansas So Tennessee still in. 153 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 154 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: It's one of those things where you're like, yeah, that 155 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 2: wasn't a good loss. They're supposed to be a team 156 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: with a really strong offense. Tyhldem Brant of the Solid 157 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: Verbal picked them to win by thirty five plus points. 158 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: And I had it, really, I had it at forty 159 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: eight to seventeen, So thirty one points, thank you very much. 160 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: Thirty one points. And so if you can say, like, oh, 161 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: I don't have Tennessee in my top twelve after that performance, 162 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: like who do you are. 163 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: You putting A and m there are you putting? 164 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 3: Utah?

Those are 166 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: all good teams, if not very good, but like there's 167 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: nobody obvious. Continue, So Tennessee at what do you say? 168 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: Eight? 169 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 3: At number eight? Number seven is Miami? Miami held steady. 170 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 3: I don't know how I feel about this. I actually 171 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: bumped Miami up a little bit more. I thought, despite 172 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 3: the fact that it was a thin win on the 173 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 3: road against Cal at night and totally separate from how 174 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 3: I feel about Miami finding its way into some of 175 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: these close games that I don't believe they should be in, 176 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 3: I still thought it was damn impressive the comeback in 177 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 3: the manner that they did in that second half and 178 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 3: sort of dominate col in the last quarter and a 179 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 3: half and get the one point win. So I bumped 180 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 3: Miami up. Miami actually held firm in this poll. They 181 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 3: were seventh last week, there were seventh again this week. 182 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand why you're not going to be by one. 183 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 2: Might not be super overwhelmed by Miami struggling in back 184 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 2: to back weeks with Virginia Tech and Cal both I 185 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 2: think quality ACC teams, but teams that Miami seems like 186 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: they should have an advantage over. But I've softened, right 187 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 2: this is at twenty twenty four dan He says in 188 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: the third person, I've softened a little bit with extending 189 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 2: grace and to expect perfection and to expect three touchdown 190 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 2: wins every week while looking complete and a finished product 191 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: in late September early October, I think is unrealistic and 192 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 2: is heaping expectations on teams a little bit too violently. 193 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 3: Alabama felled the sixth in this poll last week, obviously 194 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 3: in the manner that they knocked off Georgia. That was 195 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 3: grounds for the reballer hood to bump Alabama all the 196 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 3: way up to number two. It was a very very 197 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 3: tight race between Bama and Texas. Texas still at the edge, 198 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 3: but Bama was only, like, I don't know, twenty eight 199 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 3: points or something in our pole away from tying Texas 200 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 3: for first place. They've now since dropped back down. 201 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: Not a surprise. 202 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 3: It was really a question of how far are they 203 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 3: going to fall? They fell to number six, I. 204 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: Would drop them further. I don't know. 205 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: My thinking is just like if you are going to 206 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 2: heap praise on a team for winning an impressive game 207 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 2: even though Alabama nearly choked it away against Georgia, I 208 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 2: don't know. I think you have to use an equal 209 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: amount of energy to say they lost to an unranked 210 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: team who recently recently lost to was Georgia State, who 211 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 2: Vandy lost to, and so you're just like, I think 212 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 2: you have to use similar energy, even though I think 213 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 2: we as a collective college football universe feel that Vandy 214 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 2: is pretty frisky and feisty, like they're not turning that 215 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 2: into wins all of the time, especially not against Florida State, 216 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 2: not against some more vulnerable MISSOO this season. And so 217 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think you have to weigh things 218 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: with equal weight here. 219 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 3: I think that's entirely fair. I'm looking at mine. I 220 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 3: actually had BAM at five. Oh okay, and. 221 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 2: I think i'd put them more in the eight or 222 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 2: nine region. 223 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 3: Penn State is fifth. I don't really agree with this. 224 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: Penn State went up. They went up after beating UCLA. 225 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 3: I watched that game. I look, Penn State was never 226 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 3: really in danger there, but there are elements of that 227 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: Penn State offense that. I think we've a lot to 228 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 3: be desired, and my guess is that would be an 229 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 3: interesting test this week as they travel cross country to 230 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: play USC. They're about a five, five and a half 231 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 3: point favorite at a time of recording. 232 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: My guess is that's going to change. 233 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 3: But Penn State now a top five team. The for 234 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 3: ball are top twelve pole. 235 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: Would you when you look at the teams around Penn State, 236 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 2: would you feel good about them? I'm saying, like in six, seven, eight, nine, ten, 237 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 2: do you think Penn State is built to win those 238 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: types of games? Would you bet one thousand dollars of 239 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: your own American dollars on Penn State on a neutral field? 240 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 3: I think they could beat Miami. Okay, I think they 241 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 3: could beat Miami. There's a conversation to be had with Tennessee. Okay, 242 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: I don't think they're beating Alabama. And I'm really high 243 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 3: on Clemson. I'm not sure they beat Clemson. 244 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: Okay, oh Miss. 245 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 3: They lost Ole Miss Yrkos so maybe not again. I 246 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 3: think they could beat Iowa State. I think they could 247 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 3: beat Indiana. But yeah, as for those teams, I think 248 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 3: I would probably refrain from betting the one k on them. 249 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: You think Penn State can beat Indiana number four man 250 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: George Bulldogs, Okay. 251 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 3: Working their way back in lost the game, but verball 252 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 3: is extending a little bit of grace here. 253 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 2: Beat Auburn, I think in a totally good win. 254 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: It was a fine win. It was okay. 255 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 3: Number three, your Oregon Ducks big one this weekend, Dan Biggie, 256 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 3: Big one this week in Oregon moves up. 257 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: We can talk a little bit about that as we 258 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: go through here. They're going to square off. 259 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 3: They're going to host number two Ohio State this coming 260 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 3: week and what figures to be the showpiece of the weekend, 261 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 3: and that means that Texas is still number one. 262 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: Hanging in. 263 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 3: Texas didn't play this past week, so no reason to 264 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 3: drop them, and lucky for them, lucky for them that 265 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 3: they did not play, because it feels like most teams 266 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 3: that did play had something of a tussle in their hands. 267 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is red River for Texas. Yes, it is 268 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: all right. I think it's gonna be a great week 269 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: of college football time. I'm good with Texas being number one. 270 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 2: I'm good with Ohio State being number two. I saw 271 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: that Ohio State became the object of internet conversation because 272 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 2: was it David Hale who mentioned that they weren't that 273 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: good against Iowa? Was that what it was? 274 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? And then go ahead, go on. I don't know. 275 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: And then there were just a lot of thoughts, a 276 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 2: lot of emotions around that statement, which I don't think 277 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 2: I agree with. I think Ohio State was really good 278 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: against Iowa. I was a tough ish team because of 279 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 2: their defense. And I'd rather a team start sluggish ish 280 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: on not finished drives and that look overwhelming in the 281 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 2: second half. 282 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: I just I don't know how you hold that against 283 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: a team. 284 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 3: Well, the controversy was around the way that he described 285 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: the Ohio State win versus the way that he described 286 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 3: the Georgia win. 287 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: Right, And I don't know. 288 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 3: I look, Ohio State played a really good defense in Iowa, 289 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 3: and I don't think it's necessarily a black eye to 290 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 3: take a half to get things figured out. We watched 291 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 3: the first half. They weren't great in the first half. 292 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: They moved the ball, they just weren't finishing drive. 293 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, they were definitely not playing to their offensive standards 294 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 3: in that first half. But in the second half, it 295 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 3: was truly one of those moments we joke on the 296 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 3: show you took a long p and then you came 297 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: back and they were up by twenty eight points. 298 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what Ohio State does too. So I 299 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: think I think it was fine. 300 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 3: I thought it was good. Yeah, it was good. It 301 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 3: was good, A very very good team. Yeah, despite the 302 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 3: fact that I was seen to move the ball in 303 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 3: Ohio State early, they didn't late, and their defense clamped 304 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 3: down and they remain obviously a top two team here 305 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 3: in this poll. 306 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: So a good win by them. 307 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 3: Comparing it with Georgia, the Georgia win over Auburn, Georgia struggled. 308 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: I mean, if you look at things like postgame win expectancy, 309 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 3: if you look at win probability over the course of 310 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 3: the game, Georgia was never really in doubt by those 311 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 3: metrics of losing this football game. What I will say, though, 312 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 3: Georgia did not pull away. 313 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: Until very late in the third quarter. 314 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: It was fourteen to ten pretty late in that game, 315 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 3: and so it also took them a while to get 316 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 3: going against what I think we assume is a decent 317 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 3: enough defense in Auburn, in the Deep South, oldest rivalry, 318 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 3: you got to play that rivalry card. 319 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: In there as well. So like both teams it was. 320 00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. 321 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 3: I thought it was fine on behalf of the themes 322 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 3: to say that one was better than the other one 323 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 3: should be disappointed with the performance outside the way we've 324 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 3: described it might be a bridge too far from me. 325 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can talk about the rhythm of that game 326 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 2: being a relatively close back and forth. But it was 327 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 2: clear that Georgia was the more successful team. It wasn't 328 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 2: always finishing drives. It was twenty eight ten pretty early 329 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: on in the fourth quarter, was it not. Oh, it 330 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 2: got out of hand quickly. It just took them a 331 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 2: while for them to finally get some separation. I agree, 332 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: I agree, And again it's one of those things where 333 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 2: we're talking early October and we are tisking anybody who's 334 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 2: not beating teams fifty five to three, and I want 335 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: to be like our Latex salesman in the top five, like, 336 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. 337 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: Not everybody's Indiana, Dan, Let's just be real. 338 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 2: I know, not everybody's Indiana, not everybody's Texas. But I 339 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: just what we are, and I include us in this 340 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 2: because I'm positive we're guilty of this. Is you want 341 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: to declare something definitive, right, and you want to be 342 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: able to say this is how I feel about all 343 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 2: teams in this scenario, and you're like, oh, this team struggled, 344 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: and this team only scored because they generated a bunch 345 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 2: of turnovers. And just like winning is hard, winning by 346 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 2: double digits is hard when you're playing against good teams 347 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 2: in the Big Ten, the ACC, the Big Twelve, the 348 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: Mountain West, whoever. And I don't know, I really hesitate 349 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: when saying looking at like Fox or ESPN and looking 350 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 2: at their like, oh, ESPN is going to give a 351 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 2: lot more grace to SEC teams or teams who've you know, 352 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: who generate big ratings, Like. 353 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't think that's true. I just don't. 354 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 2: And I have a lot of problems with the ESPN 355 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: and Fox and the way this sport has been covered 356 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 2: during games and whatever. But I think what happens with 357 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 2: this sport a lot of the times is it's not 358 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 2: necessarily how it's covered as a reaction to like a 359 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: specific game, like, oh, they're biased because this is what 360 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 2: they're saying about an SEC game or a Big ten 361 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 2: game or something like that. 362 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: But if ESPN is. 363 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 2: Going to put on Paul Finbaum on First Take or whatever, 364 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 2: and he's going to be the college football voice for ESPN, 365 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 2: and he's going to go on the air and call 366 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh a fraud for three hundred and sixty days 367 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 2: a year. And then people at ESPN are like, why 368 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 2: do people think we have a bias? Why You're just like, 369 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 2: probably ninety eight percent of the talkers at ESPN don't 370 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 2: have a bias. But when you put Paul Findbaum, then 371 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: I'm saying Paul find momb specifically, because you're just like, 372 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: it's just spewing heat for no reason. That's that's the issue. 373 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: And so if you want people to think and this 374 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 2: same goes for Fox, same goes for everything. But I 375 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 2: think ESPN is most guilty of it. That if you 376 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 2: want people to think you're not biased, look inward about 377 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 2: who has the hottest mic, and like, I don't think 378 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 2: Kirk k Herbstreet is biased, right, I don't think that 379 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 2: the other people in a similar position are all that biased. 380 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 2: But when you build your network around people who are 381 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 2: paid to say the most outlandish things about teams, whether 382 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 2: it's Fox, like Colin Coward and Emmanuel Acho, right, that like, 383 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 2: you know, the loudest people in the room, And then 384 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 2: You're like, why would people say this about us? Why 385 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,199 Speaker 2: would people say our network is biased? And then you 386 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 2: the most visible people are just saying insane things. They're like, 387 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 2: look inward, guys. That's why I don't think it's a 388 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 2: David Hale problem, is what I'm saying. I think people 389 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 2: who actually like watch a ton of games nationally. I 390 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 2: don't think that they're the issue. 391 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 3: If there were going to be biased, it probably wouldn't 392 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 3: be the type that would come out in a two 393 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 3: paragraph game cap no Right. One paragraph on Ohio State 394 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 3: versus Iowa, another paragraph on Georgia Auburn. 395 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: That is not where it would come out. 396 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 3: This was not a longer think piece an expose on 397 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 3: the status of college football in America. This was a 398 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 3: guy who's trying to do a job, trying to cover 399 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 3: all the games like we do. Yeah, maybe he didn't 400 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 3: watch all of the game. 401 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: It's really difficult. 402 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 3: It's impossible to do that. I extend a little bit 403 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,719 Speaker 3: of grace on that front. Maybe he didn't describe it 404 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 3: the way that some of us would, but I don't 405 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 3: think that is the source of the bias. If you're 406 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 3: out there trying to find it, not to mention any 407 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 3: names from rival networks, right. 408 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: No, I hear you. I just yeah. 409 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 2: And then you have the reaction to the reaction where 410 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 2: it was like, Iowa would clean the clock of the 411 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 2: these SEC teams of Arkansas. It was some newspaper writer, 412 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: I forget the name. I apologize for not sourcing this correctly, 413 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 2: like Iowa would clean the clock of Arkansas and Vanderbilt. 414 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 2: He was like, I don't know, man, Iowa just got 415 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 2: shut out by the team who lost to Arkansas in 416 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 2: their Bowl last year. Like let's just like, let's all 417 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 2: just take a breath and enjoy the fun of this sport. 418 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: Take a b Yeah, that's all. 419 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 3: This is why we love anyway. There's your ball, our 420 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 3: top twelve poll soliverbogimail dot com. Let us know your thoughts. 421 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 3: Let's travel back in time and cover some stuff that 422 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 3: we did not have a chance to discuss on Saturday. 423 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 3: So there was that Miami game. You already I think 424 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 3: mentioned a bunch of the key points here, but the 425 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 3: final score was thirty nine to thirty eight. The ESPN 426 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 3: win probability chart. The aforementioned chart had cal at ninety 427 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 3: five point five percent chance of winning, with about a 428 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 3: buck forty two left in this game, I would say 429 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 3: if you watched it in a real time, and we 430 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 3: did because we were up doing editing and whatnot, it 431 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 3: felt like a zero percent chance to me. Yeah, it 432 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 3: real like, with the way that momentum was headed in 433 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 3: that game, you knew that col was not going to 434 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 3: win that game. And that's no disrespect to the Cal Bears, 435 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 3: who played an admirable game there. 436 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: But I might even think it was just momentum. 437 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 2: But yes, the reason why I think you're right, but 438 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 2: the way Cal was scoring on those huge plays, you're like, 439 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 2: your defense is going to be on the field a while, 440 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 2: oh the second half, unless you keep generating sixty one 441 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,959 Speaker 2: yard touchdown after sixty one yard touchdown. 442 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were gassed. 443 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 3: Miami had all the moment mentum the last ten minutes 444 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 3: of that game. They wound up scoring twenty one unanswered. 445 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 3: Came from way behind. They stealed this one on the road. 446 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 3: As we said earlier, at one point they were down 447 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 3: twenty five thirty five to ten in the second quarter. 448 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: So Cal had the pick six. 449 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 3: They had a bunch of long pass plays that helped 450 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 3: them get up and stay up for about two and 451 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 3: a half quarters. 452 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: But truly. 453 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 3: Once Miami shored that up, Cal pretty much went cold. 454 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 3: They only scored three points in the final twenty minutes 455 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 3: or so. This was not like the Vandy game. No, 456 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 3: this was in the Vandy game. Remember we went on 457 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 3: the air, we said, this was not a fluke. With 458 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: the way that they played, this was not a fluke. 459 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 3: And I was heartened to see that other smart college 460 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 3: football people, all of us kind of did our thing 461 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 3: at the same time on Saturday night. 462 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: Ty, thank you, I'm blushing. 463 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 3: Everybody said us. Everybody used the F word. Yeah, everybody 464 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 3: said it wasn't a fluke. So I felt redeemed by that. Hey, 465 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 3: other smart people said it too, Okay, did not control 466 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 3: time of possession. They were only twenty percent on third 467 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 3: stat third downs, which was like the total opposite of 468 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 3: what we saw on. 469 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 1: That Vandy upset. 470 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 3: This was them getting up early with some big plays 471 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 3: and then hanging on for dear life to that point though, 472 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 3: even though Miami had momentum, even though Miami was coming 473 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 3: on like a freight train in the end, there was 474 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 3: that targeting play. So this happened about a minute and 475 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 3: fifty left in the game. 476 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: It would have given Cal the first down. 477 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 3: This is not to say it would have iced the 478 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 3: game for Cal, but it would have extended the drive 479 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 3: when Cal was already hanging on. They were up a 480 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 3: score I think thirty eight to thirty two something like that. 481 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 3: To me, this looked like textbook targeting. I have no 482 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 3: idea how they went to the replay and came back 483 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 3: saying no, no, it's cool. Even brock Osweler, who was 484 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 3: doing the game with Rhys Davis, at first he was like, 485 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's targeting, And then he went 486 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 3: back and he looked at the replay and he's like, dude, 487 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 3: that's an automatic targeting call. 488 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: It seemed like it to me, And they didn't call it. 489 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 3: They didn't call it. Callen's up punting. Miami scores like 490 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 3: immediately game over. Yeah, we can talk about that again. 491 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 3: I think the New York Post had a headline about 492 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 3: Miami got a gift from the referees for the second 493 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 3: straight week on the back of that Virginia Tech win. 494 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 3: Two takeaways from my standpoint, the first incredible comeback for 495 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: Miami and kudos to them for not quitting, for finding 496 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 3: a way to get this done. There were five other 497 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 3: top eleven teams that could not do what Miami did. 498 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 3: But I will say it is two straight weeks now 499 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 3: where they were a double digit favorite, both times too 500 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 3: close for comfort. I bring this up because it's sort 501 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 3: of been their MO the last couple seasons, and I 502 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 3: like this Miami team. 503 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 1: You know, I like this Miami team. 504 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 3: I picked them to win the ACC, but this has 505 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 3: been their m O now a couple of years running. 506 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: They've still got to go to Louisville, they go. 507 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: To Georgia Tech. 508 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 3: They end the year on the road at Syracuse, of 509 00:23:55,560 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 3: all places. Take the points, friends, take the points. This 510 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 3: is not the last we have seen of a Miami 511 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,679 Speaker 3: close call. I was hoping they had rid that of 512 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 3: their system, but I think this is who Miami is. 513 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 3: And I'm not rooting against them openly. Again, I pick them, 514 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 3: and I want to look smart, but I'm just saying 515 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 3: it seems like they still got that in them, right, 516 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 3: and I would not want to lay the points on 517 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 3: the road if I'm looking at Miami games here. 518 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 2: I don't recommend that people go down the path of 519 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 2: conspiracy theories because ultimately it's just going to fry your brain. 520 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 2: But this type of result in This type of ending 521 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 2: is fuel. It's food to have it two weeks straight. 522 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 2: That Like if you're the ACC and you're seeing Florida 523 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 2: State completely fall into the center of Earth, and you know, 524 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 2: North Carolina's doing nothing and all these like big name 525 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 2: programs outside, you know, in Clemson lose the way that 526 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 2: they did to start the season, you're doing everything humanly possible. Again, 527 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: this is how the conspiracy theory would go to ensure 528 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: that we get a Clemson Miami ACC title game with 529 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 2: both of those teams with double digit wins, to ensure 530 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 2: that maybe both of those teams get into the College 531 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 2: Football Playoff, and that a loss against Cal or a 532 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 2: loss against Virginia Tech, even if you can't see the 533 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: ball being caught or ball whatever that you that there's 534 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 2: no you know, visual evidence to overturn a called touchdown 535 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 2: against Virginia Tech. And then there is what appears to 536 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 2: be a call that is being reviewed by the ACC office. 537 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, it's too much fuel. You got 538 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: to you gotta ease up a little bit. Or Miami 539 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 2: is just going to lose to one or two or 540 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: three teams by twelve points and it just won't be 541 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: determined by you know, an ACC referee crew. 542 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 3: So yeah, I have I have a couple other thoughts here, 543 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 3: lingering thoughts have been downcing around my head on the 544 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 3: topic of the ACC. Clemson beat Florida State by sixteen 545 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 3: twenty nine, three thirteen. We know that Florida State is 546 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 3: in a bad way right now. This is well documented. 547 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 3: At this point, we did not talk much about them 548 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: starting Brock Glenn over dju Who's hurt? 549 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: Who's hurt? 550 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, all things considered, I thought he looked pretty good 551 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 3: for his first start, first start coming against Clemson, and 552 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 3: is on an easy defense, and it does make me 553 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 3: wonder if he should just be the guy moving forward, 554 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 3: just just roll with him. 555 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 1: He's about a red shirt freshman. 556 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they hit it. I think they just 557 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 3: roll with him at this point. I mean, it seemed 558 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 3: like he was capable. I liked what I saw from him. 559 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 3: I really like what I see from kid Klubney. The 560 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 3: club level might be back on, dude, we might have 561 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 3: to get back in on this. He's really good so far. 562 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 3: Two picks to fourteen touchdowns, going downfield a little bit more. 563 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: I mean, not an ideal start to the season against 564 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 2: the one decent team that Clemson has played this year, 565 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: because we are obviously downgrading NC State and app State 566 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 2: in this moment, but taking care of business like a 567 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 2: really good quarterback should against the team's post Georgia. So yeah, 568 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 2: I'm in on the growth of KBE Clubnick. 569 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 3: Also, should we just put a pool together now for 570 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 3: who Florida State's going to pay to be their transfer 571 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 3: quarterback next season? Are we thinking Eli Holstein? Are we 572 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 3: thinking Jackson? Arnold Holstein's going to move twice in two years? 573 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: Who are we thinking here? 574 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 3: If if you had to put a chip on a name, Oh, 575 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 3: very early on, this is so premature. Oh, Matt's Luca, right, 576 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 3: this is borderline irresponsible. 577 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: But you go in Sluca or the. 578 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 2: Other guy the back of Hoshey Williams. Well, look, Barry 579 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 2: Odom's going to take the UCLA job. So I don't 580 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 2: know how many times you can win ten games or 581 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 2: so in the in the Mountain West if you're Barry 582 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 2: Odom when you don't have a I don't think has 583 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 2: a connection to the West Coast footprint of America. Before 584 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 2: you're like, I'm I want to get more money than 585 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: what you and LV and everybody's trying to get more 586 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 2: money than what you UNLV's uffering obviously, So okay, who 587 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: are who is Florida State going to get for their 588 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: next transfer quarterback? 589 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, we need to keep like an updated tote board 590 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 3: of the names that we think are. Yeah, you know 591 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 3: one of one of those guys who's listening now who 592 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: always sends me the odds for the random events. Right, 593 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 3: you get that, we both get those, send me odds 594 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 3: on who Florida Stay's. 595 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: Quarterback is going to be next year. 596 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 2: I'm looking through here at the quarterbacks who have been 597 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: successful this season thus far that are not in great situations. 598 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 2: But you also have to look at perhaps like a 599 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: blue chip quarterback who's sort of lost in the shuffle 600 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 2: as a backup, like Eli Holstein was at Alabama. 601 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: Right, that's exactly right. 602 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: So I don't know you're gonna have to look at 603 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 2: some of them. Haines King is a year, right, I 604 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 2: can't imagine. I don't think that's gonna be the situation 605 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 2: that we're gonna see unfold. 606 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: Just think it over, Just think it over. Brett's laugh. 607 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: They don't want they don't want him. 608 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 2: John Mattier, All right, listen, think it over. We'll get 609 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 2: back to you. Calandria, Colelique Murphy. 610 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 3: Calandria is not a bad answer. Actually, I do want 611 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 3: to talk about Georgia a little bit more. I want 612 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 3: to harken back to something that you said on I 613 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 3: don't know one of our shows over the last couple 614 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 3: of weeks, but you have been big the last couple 615 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 3: of years on this whole premise of what has so 616 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 3: and so done. 617 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: To deserve Blake. 618 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 3: Georgia beating Auburn was a fine win. I was not 619 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 3: particularly moved by it, and I do think it is 620 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 3: time to start thinking about this Georgia schedule, which is 621 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 3: very difficult moving forward, and just wondering who else might 622 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,479 Speaker 3: they lose to. Okay, now I didn't feel like they 623 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,239 Speaker 3: were in danger of losing to Auburn. I said it 624 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 3: was just was not an inspired performance until the last 625 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 3: like sixteen minutes of the game. 626 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 2: Well, what is the reasoning, Where is Georgia vulnerable to 627 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 2: you in this moment? Well, first and foremost, I mean. 628 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 3: They may be vulnerable in the road, and they're at 629 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 3: Texas in two weeks, they go to Ole Miss and 630 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 3: then they come back home the next week against Tennessee. 631 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 3: So it's three really good teams that are still on 632 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 3: that schedule. They also close out the year with Georgia Tech, 633 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,719 Speaker 3: who's pesky, if not more right now. I've got him 634 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 3: at like a three and a half four point dog 635 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 3: in that Texas game on the road. I got a 636 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 3: guy's about to pick them in that Old Miss game. 637 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 3: What I think I am reacting most too with Georgia 638 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 3: is it just has felt three times now like whereas 639 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 3: last season they had this extra year. 640 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: To kind of zoom ahead of teams. They may still 641 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: have it. 642 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 3: I just haven't felt it to the same degree this season, 643 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 3: and so I'm worried that if they get into one 644 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 3: of those slugfests with a team like a Texas which 645 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 3: is very good, very balanced across the board, that if 646 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 3: they reach back to try and get that next level, 647 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 3: they're not going to have it. 648 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 2: I agree, Yeah, there is something about the pop. There's 649 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 2: a pop lacking maybe with George's offense in this moment. 650 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 2: I think they have good players, but what does the 651 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: game changing star power look like? You know, when you 652 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 2: have somebody like you know, Jeremiah Smith at Ohio State 653 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 2: or even Ryan Williams at Alabama, You're like, where is 654 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 2: that star power on this Georgia offense coming from that, 655 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 2: you know, might help to cover up some deficiencies. And again, 656 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: they have good players. They legit have good players at 657 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: offensive skill. Defensively, maybe not as disciplined as previous Georgia defenses. Look, 658 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 2: the further you get away from the Dan Landing experience, 659 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 2: it's just going to be tough, Tye, you know this. 660 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 2: But they're also just a victim of their own success 661 00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: that we're asking ourselves what is wrong with Georgia when they, however, 662 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 2: many regular season games in a row they won, that 663 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: they don't beat Alabama, which is fine. A lot of 664 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: people lose to Alabama other than Vanderbilt, And so we're 665 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 2: weighing Georgia on a different scale. I think, oh, we 666 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 2: definitely are. 667 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 3: And you know what, it's not fair to them by 668 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 3: any stretch, but it is sort of where we're at. 669 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 3: Because Nick Saban walks out, everybody says automatically, oh, well, 670 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 3: now it's you know, now it's Kirby Smart. Kirby Smart's 671 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 3: new Saban. And this year it just I was expecting 672 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 3: more out. 673 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: Of this team. 674 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 3: With all they had back, they obviously still could approve 675 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 3: to an incredible degree. I mean, it's still there for them, 676 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 3: but it's just not the same situation as was a 677 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 3: year ago, and the schedule was easier. It felt like 678 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 3: they had more of those playmakers this year were again 679 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 3: I'm still waiting for that next year to arrive. 680 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 2: Well, they beat Clemson by how many points? 681 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: Did it start? Thirty one points? Did that happen? That game? 682 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 2: Did happen? The top ten team? 683 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 3: I just but what we have seen over the last 684 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 3: couple weeks now has made me feel differently. 685 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: I agree. 686 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 2: And this is again, this is back to our latex salesman, like, 687 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 2: you want to be a top five team, this is 688 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 2: what we expect from you, fair or not. And so 689 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 2: Georgia only beats Offferned by eighteen eventually. Yeah, and we're 690 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 2: saying to ourselves it feels different, and maybe it does, 691 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 2: and maybe there are elements that feel different, but I'll 692 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 2: echo myself once again. It's early October and teams built 693 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 2: like Georgia are able to look internally and figure things 694 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 2: out much more often than other teams. And so whether 695 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: that's against Texas, whether that's against Ole Miss, I mean, look, 696 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 2: winning is a skill. Georgia had that skill against Kentucky, Ole, 697 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 2: miss did not Texas has what is the best offense 698 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 2: in this moment that Texas has faced this year, Like 699 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 2: we're criticizing Georgia for something, Texas is like Ana with 700 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 2: what is the best offense Texas has faced this year? 701 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: Because it's not Michigan or Michigan's. 702 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: Not on that level. It's definitely not Michigan. 703 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the number one team Texas. It's 704 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 2: not is it Mississippi State, It's not Utsa, it's not Monroe, 705 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 2: Colorado State. So we're saying, you know, we have no 706 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 2: questions about Texas and what is going to be the 707 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 2: first legit good offense Texas faces this year to like 708 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 2: sort of have that net crack experience. 709 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 1: Georgia is probably Georgia. 710 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,720 Speaker 2: The first time you play like a totally decent offense 711 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 2: is going to be Georgia. That doesn't seem ideal for Texas. 712 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 2: By the way, I had. 713 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 3: The Texas schedule in front of me as you asked 714 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 3: that question, and the long pause was not me scrambling 715 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 3: to try and find it. It's been scrambling to try 716 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 3: and answer that question with an actual team. 717 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 2: Because it's Georgia. It's Georgia October nineteenth. Texas will go 718 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 2: until October nineteenth without playing like a clearly dangerous offense. 719 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 2: All due respect to Michigan and Oklahoma, but Oklahoma is 720 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 2: starting what a true freshman quarterback in this moment, I 721 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: don't know. 722 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 3: Hey, I have four other real quick ones that I'm 723 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 3: ready for it up. We didn't talk a lot about 724 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 3: the Old Miss South Carolina games. A nice rebound win 725 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 3: for Old Miss. I wanted to pat myself on the 726 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 3: back though, if I could do that, because this opportunity. 727 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 3: Most of my picks were wrong last week. My money 728 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 3: bets that I post out on Twitter were like, oh, 729 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 3: win four. So this is the first week where the 730 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 3: gods are struck back at me. But there was something 731 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 3: I said on the previous show that one hundred came 732 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 3: true in this game. Remember I brought this stat out 733 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 3: that both defenses were allowing a high percentage of targets 734 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 3: that were wide open, and that being said, neither defense 735 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 3: was allowing big passing plays. My theory on this game was, well, 736 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 3: you've got two mobile quarterbacks. It's going to break one 737 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 3: way or the other because when you got the mobile quarterback, 738 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 3: it stretches the defense. 739 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: In a way that it isn't normally. 740 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 3: This is where the big plays come from. Didn't happen 741 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,280 Speaker 3: for South Carolina on offense, but it very much happened 742 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 3: for Old Miss. My assumption was that it was going 743 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 3: to snap one way or another because of that mobile 744 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 3: quarterback factor, and it really went. 745 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: Old missus way. They got a ton of big plays 746 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: through the air. 747 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 3: So I'm curious to see what transpires this week on 748 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 3: the South Carolina side, seeing as how their defense, which 749 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 3: we think highly of, was stressed by that Ole Miss 750 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 3: offense because they're on the road this week against Alabama 751 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 3: was mobile quarterback, maybe the best mobile quarterback in college football. 752 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 3: Look for that to happen again this week. Look for 753 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 3: it to happen in a couple weeks when South Carolina 754 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 3: squares off against Vandy. Look for it to happen later 755 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 3: in the year against Clemson. Something to keep your something 756 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 3: to keep your eyes open for. 757 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 1: Okay, I think I trust Ole Miss. 758 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 3: They're a mobile quarterback problem. Despite the fact that South 759 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 3: Carolina's defense is very good. Is there a mobile quarterback 760 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:58,280 Speaker 3: problem or a mobile quarterback enhanced threat that you should 761 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,240 Speaker 3: bear in mind when you're picking games. 762 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 2: Yes, But like you always should like you'd always rather 763 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 2: have some quarterback who can move and make plays with 764 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 2: his feet and his arm. So everybody's got that issue. 765 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 2: I think allmost is very good. And you know what, 766 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 2: it was something about the South Carolina game too, where 767 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 2: it wasn't the mobility of Jackson Dart. He's still fearless 768 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 2: every single game he plays. He's fearless both in terms 769 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 2: of how he moves and throwing the ball down field. 770 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,800 Speaker 2: The offense is built for him to generate explosive plays 771 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 2: with his arm downfield. This isn't like a screen and 772 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 2: go type thing. It was he was getting hit by 773 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 2: South Carolina edge players, defenders, whatever, and still completing wide 774 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,320 Speaker 2: open passes that the secondary was getting hard. To that degree, 775 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: those tips are frosted with courage, Dan, you know it. 776 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 2: Of course, three other quick ones here the Florida game, 777 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 2: I was all in on UCF. 778 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: I figured Florida was going to be dead to rights here, but. 779 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was impressed with how the Florida defense locked 780 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 3: down UCF. They had five sacks, devan tackles for loss. 781 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 3: An interesting quirk that I'm going to bring up on 782 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 3: Thursday because they play the Tennessee game this week is 783 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 3: the quirk that you bet with Ted Roof. That's a 784 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 3: personal problem. Please respect my privacy time. I think we're 785 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 3: high on Tennessee's line, but Florida, interestingly enough, is actually 786 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 3: converting pressures into sacks at a much higher rate than Tennessee. 787 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 3: So Tennessee is getting pressure however you define that, but 788 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 3: they're not converting that pressure into sacks thus far. 789 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 1: They're actually fairly low in terms of that sack rate. 790 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 3: So if nothing more, just take away from this the 791 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 3: fact that the Florida pass rush, those numbers are way 792 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 3: better for Florida this season. 793 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, which is good. 794 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 3: This is again not going to be like a playoff 795 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 3: team or anything, but Florida's playing pretty efficient offense right now, 796 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 3: and I do think there are elements to that defense 797 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 3: that have improved. So curious to see what happens the 798 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 3: rest of the way here, because the schedule is not 799 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 3: get easier. It's going to be tough. It's gonna get 800 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 3: real tough this week. But I thought this was a 801 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 3: decent defensive showing against UCF. 802 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I respect UCF's ability to move the ball, So 803 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 2: what Florida was able to do here I think was 804 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 2: a good thing. This was this coming off of a 805 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 2: bye for Florida. Correct, Was this a sleeper Saturday moment 806 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:16,280 Speaker 2: for the games? 807 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 1: It was? 808 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 3: It was I was really impressed by this win, Dan, 809 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 3: I genuinely was because I was. I mean, you heard 810 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 3: what I said. I was like, I know, billion Apier 811 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 3: is done after this, and this is going to be 812 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 3: a big one for UCF. And UCF is lucky they scored. 813 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 3: I mean, they did not look good and Florida made 814 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 3: them look bad. This was a Florida thing. 815 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 2: The good thing about Florida in this moment is they've 816 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 2: lost the games that it feels reasonable for them to lose, 817 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 2: right the text A and M loss, even though it 818 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 2: was a Marcel Reid game, text A and M has 819 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 2: continued to improve and look pretty dangerous. Obviously Miami is 820 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 2: flawed in some respects, but they've won games, and you know, 821 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 2: so beating UCF, beating Mississippi State, obviously beating Samford, those 822 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,240 Speaker 2: are games Florida should win. This will be a good test. 823 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 2: And the problem is just other than the Florida State game, 824 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 2: there's just it just bangers only. 825 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: For Florida's skin. I know it's hard, it's hard. 826 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,840 Speaker 2: So like, if we're just gonna say Florida is decent, 827 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,800 Speaker 2: it might not matter, right because on one hand, you're like, 828 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 2: what does decent actually mean? Florida has higher expectations than 829 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,439 Speaker 2: decent this many years into a coaching tenure, And then 830 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 2: like you look at Kentucky, Georgia, Texas, LSU Ole, Miss Tennessee. 831 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 2: Decent just not gonna get it done against maybe the 832 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 2: LSU defense. But outside of that, I don't know. I 833 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 2: just it's going to be a long year still to 834 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 2: me with Florida. And on your point about them converting 835 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 2: sacks or converting pressures to sacks, I'd like to remind 836 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 2: people there are a lot of bad outcomes other than 837 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 2: sacks that can happen with a lot of pressure. Quarterbacks 838 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 2: can throw errant passes. Quarterbacks and have tip passes. Quarterbacks 839 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 2: and throw interceptions. Quarterbacks can soil themselves. And I raise 840 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 2: my hand with that that if Tennessee's defensive line was 841 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 2: bearing down on me, maybe they won't get to me. 842 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm throwing it away in time, But my underwear 843 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 2: is probably not looking the same as it was pre game. Yeah, 844 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,240 Speaker 2: so bad things can still happen. You want a defense 845 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 2: that generates pressure, whether or not that's converted to sacks 846 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 2: or not. 847 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 3: Two other things bounced around in my head about the 848 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 3: Big twelve. Yeah, Iowa State. We talked about Iowa State 849 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 3: now number eleven in the Verballar Top twelve pole big 850 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 3: one this week on the road against West Virginia that 851 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,720 Speaker 3: we're going to preview. Their ground game is slowly rounding 852 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,919 Speaker 3: into form. Okay, slowly rounding into form to sixty five 853 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 3: on the ground against Baylor this past week. A balanced 854 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 3: Iowa State may not. 855 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: Lose this season. Wouldn't that be something? 856 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 3: It is a good team. It is a good team. 857 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 3: They've got a good defense, They've got a lot back 858 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 3: from a year ago. Rock Obeckt has looked really solid. 859 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 3: I don't know, Iowa State is not in a big 860 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 3: media market, and they're historically not a blue blood program. 861 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 3: Right this is a very good team this year, and 862 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,240 Speaker 3: I just want people to keep this on their radar. 863 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 3: I don't think this is an Iowa State team that's 864 00:41:58,120 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 3: a fluke. I think they can go toe to toe 865 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 3: with a bunch of big teams around this sport right now. 866 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 3: I like where they're at of like where they're headed. 867 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 3: So just we'll talk more about them, but just don't 868 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 3: lose track of Iowa State. 869 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 2: Can we talk about Texas Tech for a moment, please. 870 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 2: They were playing Arizona as we were doing our Saturday 871 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 2: night show, and they jumped out to a real it 872 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 2: was like eighteen to three or something like that. They 873 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 2: jumped out to a nice lead and Arizona crawled back, 874 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 2: but then Tech was able to pull it out in 875 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 2: the end did a relatively nice I mean, they didn't 876 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: really corral Temac, but no I fa fida made mistakes. 877 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 2: The running game for Arizona got going, but ultimately did 878 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,399 Speaker 2: not kill Texas Tech. I mean, I think the best 879 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,879 Speaker 2: of this game was happening on the ground. Texas Tech 880 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 2: has quietly after that weird shootout against Ablene Christian. 881 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 1: Five and one. They're five and one right now. 882 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 2: I'm still not a huge Baron Morton guy. I'm a 883 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:54,200 Speaker 2: TAJ Brooks guy. 884 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: We're all TOAJ Brooks guys. 885 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,760 Speaker 2: I'm willing to believe in Texas Tech being a grower, 886 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 2: not necessarily a shower in this moment in the Big twelve, 887 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 2: let me ask you this. 888 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, text over under was seven and a half. Okay, 889 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 3: pull up their schedule, Okay, I'll give you time to 890 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 3: give you time to pull up their schedule. 891 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: It's up. I still think getting to eight is. 892 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,719 Speaker 3: A struggle with this defense, but they needed this win 893 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 3: if they were gonna make it too eight and hit 894 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 3: that over. 895 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 1: They needed this one over Arizona. I agree, Can they 896 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: get to eight? Read the schedule off? What do you think? 897 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:37,439 Speaker 2: Uh, Baylor at home is winnable, at TCU is winnable. Yep, 898 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 2: those are set. That's seven. That's totally has a decent 899 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 2: shot to me right in the next two weeks. What 900 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 2: about the rest of them? At Iowa State is going 901 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 2: to be extremely tough. Colorado's tough, But you tell me 902 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 2: they can win that game forty five forty two, it's 903 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,280 Speaker 2: going to be a shootout. 904 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's absolutely going to be a shootout. 905 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 2: Yeah right, Yeah, in Iowa State doesn't have, you know, 906 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 2: a sandwich situation or anything like that with tech, so 907 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 2: there's nothing crazy there. At Oklahoma State, I'm not going 908 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,280 Speaker 2: to say it's easy. I'm going to say it appears 909 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 2: to be easier than it did in early September. 910 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 1: Agreed. I would agree with that. 911 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, West Virginia is going to be difficult, but it's 912 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 2: at home. Yep, I'm gonna say this is a challenging 913 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 2: back half. Maybe outside of TCU, and we'll see. I'm Baylor. 914 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 2: Baylor still might have the defense to make things challenging. 915 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 2: I if pressed, I'm going to say, yes, they can 916 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 2: win eight games. 917 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 1: It's there. I mean, it's you could definitely squint and 918 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 1: fy three more wins. Yeah, I just don't. I think 919 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 1: there's two that look more obvious than the rest. And 920 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: then they need to steal one of those other four 921 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 1: that you mentioned. 922 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 2: But man, what is going on with TCU, by the way, 923 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:49,479 Speaker 2: giving away the UCF game, getting obliterated by SMU drop 924 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,479 Speaker 2: what sixty seventy points in that game? Houston looking dead 925 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 2: to rights makes quarterback change runs all over them. Yeah, well, 926 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 2: at least that huge place. I don't know, man, I 927 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 2: don't know what's got Sunny Dykes is among There was 928 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 2: a list of head coaches and maybe you can pull 929 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 2: up this tweet, this, zeit this whatever. I think Lincoln 930 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 2: Riley is five and seven in his last twelve. Sonny 931 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 2: Dikes is five and seven in his last twelve. Currently, 932 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,959 Speaker 2: I think Lincoln Riley has we can touch on USC 933 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 2: Minnesota a little if you want to. I think Lincoln 934 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 2: Riley is currently he was like twenty two and ten 935 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 2: in his last thirty two or something like that, and 936 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 2: through this many games, Clay Helton was twenty three and nine. 937 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 2: There are some like coaching conversations to be had, maybe 938 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 2: not yet, maybe as we get into like Halloween ish, 939 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 2: like I'm curious to see how this team performs in 940 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 2: November and what this conversation is like. 941 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 3: Man, I do think the pressure to get into the 942 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 3: playoff is going to make some programs do weird things. 943 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 1: I agree, And. 944 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 3: The Lincoln Riley thing it again, has some notes of 945 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 3: the pressure getting to them. I don't know if you 946 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 3: saw the postgame thing with somebody asking a player a 947 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 3: question and him snapping in and saying, that's not a 948 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:16,240 Speaker 3: good question something that to that extent, I'm not probably 949 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,800 Speaker 3: describing it accurately, but well. 950 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 2: He said there was also something he said, Lincoln Riley's like, 951 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 2: we're five points away from being undefeated. You're just like, 952 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 2: that's it's it's it's just little stuff like that that 953 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 2: makes you feel kind of like we saw last year 954 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 2: with Ryan Day right with his Holtz moment. It's just 955 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 2: these little breaks in character that sometimes indicate that somebody's. 956 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 1: Feeling the heat and that's real. Ride. 957 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're Lincoln Riley, I mean I get it. 958 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 3: He came in with really high expectations and not necessarily 959 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 3: doing better than Clay Hilton at this point. 960 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,840 Speaker 2: Sonny Sonny Dike's five and seven, Hugh Freeze five and seven, 961 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,640 Speaker 2: Billy Napier five and seven, Sam Pittman five and seven, 962 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 2: Lincoln Riley five and seven in their last twelve. 963 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 3: Crazy, what else do you got here from this past week? 964 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 3: You want to rattle off any other lingering thoughts? I 965 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 3: kind of sucked up all the oxygen in the room. 966 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 1: But what do you got? 967 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 2: I just I rewatched in more detail detail, he said, 968 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 2: the USC Minnesota game, and it was like the winning 969 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 2: is a skill thing. Forget the call. At the end, Minnesota, 970 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 2: without an explosive offense, did get some explosive plays from 971 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 2: Darius Taylor, who remains a terrifically underrated running back. 972 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: Hidden gem, a hidden jem, total hidden gem. I think 973 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 1: they've got basically nothing through the air. 974 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 2: To me, like, I just don't see that as being 975 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 2: something that they're going to be able to lean on 976 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 2: in any sort of positive regard. They didn't commit the turnovers. No, 977 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 2: they didn't commit the penalties. You look at USC in 978 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 2: the second half with opportunities, and even forget like the 979 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 2: game end it was a game ending pick right for 980 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 2: USC throwing into the end zone. I think memory serves 981 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:57,839 Speaker 2: forget that play. That was a desperation play. That Minnesota 982 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 2: made field goals, that they didn't turn them all over, 983 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 2: that they got off the field. They weren't great. I 984 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 2: don't think they ran as well as USC did, but 985 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, just like USC took so much off 986 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 2: the table for themselves and Minnesota sort of stayed the 987 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: course that like, what is this USC team right now 988 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 2: going into the back half of their schedule. 989 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 3: Well, and going into a week where they've got Penn 990 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 3: State coming to town. 991 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,240 Speaker 2: They've got Penn State, then they travel across the country 992 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,400 Speaker 2: to Maryland. Who I'm not a big Maryland guy in 993 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 2: this moment, but I'm a big betting against teams who 994 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:38,439 Speaker 2: are shifting three time zones or whatever. No, I don't 995 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 2: know what the Lincoln Riley conversation is. But on the 996 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 2: plus side, everybody in the offseason said you gotta do 997 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 2: something about this defense. 998 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:48,240 Speaker 1: Defense. 999 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,280 Speaker 2: Really outside of the UCLA guys in the secondary against 1000 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 2: Michigan tackling at the end of that game. I'm not 1001 00:48:55,560 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 2: gonna put that on USC. That's on UCLA. USC has 1002 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 2: losable games to Rutgers losible. I'm not saying they're gonna lose. Sure, 1003 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 2: the Rutger's totally decent. At Washington's going to be difficult, 1004 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 2: Nebraska's going to be I'm not sold on the Nebraska 1005 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 2: offense in this moment, but that's a tough defense to 1006 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 2: play against, and they can turn Miller Moss over at 1007 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 2: UCLA shouldn't be an issue, and they host Notre Dame. 1008 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 2: So right now they're three and two. Wow, eight and 1009 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 2: four is on the table after that start. I just 1010 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 2: don't know how long this is acceptable in LA. I 1011 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:33,760 Speaker 2: don't know, Okay, for that amount of money, you're paying 1012 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 2: ten million dollars to go eight and four, it's a lot, 1013 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:37,920 Speaker 2: but you're getting. 1014 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,279 Speaker 3: So much money from the Big ten dance, So it 1015 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 3: also sort of comes out in the wash, right, of course, 1016 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:43,359 Speaker 3: what else you got anything else? 1017 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:49,200 Speaker 2: I don't think so is there anybody else that's speaking 1018 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:49,760 Speaker 2: your interest? 1019 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 3: The only other thing I wanted to mention in the 1020 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 3: Texas Tech Front is that I was real big about 1021 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 3: talking about how good they were in third downs. Then 1022 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 3: they went two and eleven, right Arizona. Yeah no, otherwise, 1023 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,840 Speaker 3: why don't we get to any leftover dood alerts? 1024 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 1: Do you have those? They're ready? 1025 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 2: I will momentarily. Let's get the doodle alerts. We apologize 1026 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 2: we had so. 1027 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 1: Many people who sent them in and we just didn't 1028 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: have a chance to get to it. I've got him. 1029 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 3: We give out dood alerts to the performances that moved 1030 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 3: the needle for us. 1031 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 1: It's not always the headliners. 1032 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 3: We have people all across over baller who descended names 1033 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 3: every Saturday Night. 1034 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:29,359 Speaker 1: Who do we've got him? Who do we got? 1035 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 2: I got Ricky White blocked a punt caught one hundred 1036 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:35,799 Speaker 2: and thirty five yards worth of football's Laquinn Allen. We 1037 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 2: mentioned on the show on Saturday Night, Diego Pavia. Of 1038 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 2: course you have down here the entire Tulane running back room. 1039 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 2: Jade Nixon from Western Michigan had a great night day night. 1040 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 2: I think it was day is afternoon game Ashton genty, 1041 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 2: of course, I think we just retire him at this point. 1042 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 2: Braylan Russell from Arkansas really spelled that end of game 1043 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 2: effort from the Hogs. Jordan James for Oregon ran super top. 1044 00:50:58,760 --> 00:50:59,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw the play where he 1045 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 2: sort of launched himself like a missile. I saw to 1046 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 2: the sternum of a Michigan State possibly a safety or 1047 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 2: a linebacker. He's just he's been running quite well. And 1048 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 2: Hassan Wilson for Charlotte. We mentioned Charlotte taking a nice 1049 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 2: step forward with a very comfortable and impressive win over 1050 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,320 Speaker 2: I believe ECU on Saturday. 1051 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, scored fifty four points against an ECU defense that 1052 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 3: we thought. 1053 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,759 Speaker 1: Was pretty good. Yeah, so on him. 1054 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 2: Quite impressive. A lot of dudes, all right. 1055 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 3: One of the things that we do on this Tuesday 1056 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 3: show is we do Averballer segment rver ballerhood votes on 1057 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,799 Speaker 3: this segment out of verballers dot com. If you're a 1058 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,400 Speaker 3: premium for Baller along with your vote in the Verballer 1059 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 3: Top twelve poll, I'm saying for baller a lot here. 1060 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 3: I'm trying to throttle that back just a little bit. 1061 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 3: But of course, in terms of what you get for 1062 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 3: your money there, not only do you get to vote 1063 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,399 Speaker 3: in the Verballer Top twelve, you also get to help 1064 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 3: craft a segment this week, Thomas wants us just very quickly. 1065 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 3: He says, after having a few days to digest, maybe 1066 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:04,280 Speaker 3: just simply rank the top five upsets from this past 1067 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 3: week from least surprising to most surprising based on your 1068 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 3: own personal feelings. I will take this a step further. Okay, 1069 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 3: all of them on some level were surprising. But I 1070 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 3: think how we need to think about this question is 1071 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,840 Speaker 3: not in terms of which one surprised us the most. 1072 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 3: I think we need to think of it in terms 1073 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 3: of which new questions are now out there in the 1074 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 3: college football ether that we're not there a week ago. Yeah, 1075 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 3: Alabama is a good example, right, So Alabama losing to Vandy. 1076 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 1: We can take those. 1077 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 3: Top five upsets, the five that occurred within the top 1078 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 3: eleven if you want to, and just kind of keep 1079 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 3: it with their Alabama losing Vandy has to be the 1080 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 3: most surprising. Agreed, Yes, which questions are out there in 1081 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,840 Speaker 3: college football now about Alabama that we're not there before 1082 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 3: they lost to Vandy? And how do you think that's 1083 00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 3: going to shade your opinion of the tide moving forward? 1084 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,919 Speaker 2: It's I mean, look, if you're just taking this specific game, 1085 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 2: the question then becomes can Kaylen de borr have this 1086 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 2: Alabama program locked in even when the opponent isn't a 1087 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 2: headline opponent. If you're going to come off that Georgia win. 1088 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:24,280 Speaker 2: Is Kaylen de Boor the coach to keep his team 1089 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:29,760 Speaker 2: mentally correct to not lapse against a clearly inferior opponent 1090 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 2: from a talent perspective. Now, I think Vandy's totally decent, 1091 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 2: but they're not on the same wavelength as Alabama in 1092 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 2: terms of what they're sealing is. So that question is 1093 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 2: Kaylen de Boor's ability in a frying pan that is 1094 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:47,759 Speaker 2: the sec and what will be Alabama's schedules moving forward? 1095 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 2: Sure he can get them up for Texas, or get 1096 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:51,840 Speaker 2: him up for Ole miss or get him up for Georgia. 1097 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 2: Is he able to get him up for South Carolina? 1098 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:55,359 Speaker 2: Is he able to get him up for Vandy, able 1099 00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,239 Speaker 2: to get him up for Kentucky, able to get him 1100 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 2: up for Arkansas? 1101 00:53:58,600 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: Whoever? 1102 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 2: That is not necessarily like the prime time game opponent. 1103 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 2: I'm just curious to know what's going on. 1104 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 3: It's in six quarters now of sort of questionable play. 1105 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 3: After that really hot start against Georgia, last six quarters 1106 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:22,360 Speaker 3: has up been great for Alabama? So far, and so 1107 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 3: I'm just curious to see how long it's going to 1108 00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 3: take for them to snap out of this whatever it's been. 1109 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 3: I mean, they've still been fine. They're still performing, I think, 1110 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 3: at a pretty high level offensively. But you know, Vandy 1111 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 3: Diego Pavia moving the football in the way that they 1112 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:39,279 Speaker 3: did scoring forty points against Alabama. If you would have 1113 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 3: told me that Vanderbilt was going to beat Bama, I 1114 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 3: would not have predicted them to score forty points and 1115 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,800 Speaker 3: do it. I would have predicted a lot of turnovers 1116 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 3: for Alabama. You know, there were obviously some key turnovers here, 1117 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 3: but I would have predicted a lot more and probably 1118 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:54,360 Speaker 3: a lower scoring game. The fact they scored that much 1119 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:56,959 Speaker 3: on Alabama, I think is kind of the bigger question 1120 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 3: for me. It's not just a question of motivation and 1121 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:01,800 Speaker 3: you know what we've seen over the last couple of 1122 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 3: quarters here, it's how are they able to do that? 1123 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 3: And what does that mean when they go up against 1124 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,759 Speaker 3: better offenses? Because we saw Georgia score a lot on 1125 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 3: him too. This is an Alabama team to still get 1126 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 3: Tennessee on the schedule, LSU is on the schedule. They 1127 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 3: can score Missouri. I don't know what we think of 1128 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:20,320 Speaker 3: missoo at this point, we can talk about them in 1129 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 3: a little bit. But just the defensive question for me 1130 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 3: with Alabama, I think has to be first and foremost. 1131 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's right. 1132 00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 2: And look, it was sort of a rebuilt secondary, a 1133 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 2: lot of young dudes playing in that secondary. Obviously emotions 1134 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,399 Speaker 2: were running high. It was a Malachai Moore who picked 1135 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 2: up the penalty lay through his mouthpiece, kicked the ball. 1136 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,279 Speaker 2: We're just like can Kaalin de Borr And he's not 1137 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 2: responsible for every single player's temperament every single week. But 1138 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 2: can he have this team in a cohesive place to 1139 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,600 Speaker 2: replicate the greatest coach who has ever done it? Is 1140 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 2: a lot, aren't. Look it's not his players, these aren't. 1141 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,160 Speaker 2: This isn't the roster he built. He deserves it's a 1142 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 2: good amount of time to do so. But he still 1143 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 2: inherited a ton. And so I think the question remains 1144 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:13,040 Speaker 2: is are Alabama's mental problems problems is probably too difficult 1145 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 2: a word, but the mental laps against Mandy is that fixable? 1146 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: Mid year? 1147 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,880 Speaker 3: Which game was which upset was the least surprising to you? 1148 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:21,800 Speaker 1: Oh, Michigan. 1149 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 2: So Michigan makes the move to Jack Tunnel, so they're 1150 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 2: onto their third I mean, he might not necessarily be 1151 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 2: third string because he was injured during the fall camp 1152 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 2: quarterback competition, but they've moved on to their third quarterback. 1153 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 2: They haven't been able to pass the ball this year 1154 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 2: for a number of reasons, and going on the road 1155 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 2: to take on Washington that had a motivated crowd and 1156 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:52,959 Speaker 2: an experienced effective coach in Jedfish, Michigan losing after needing 1157 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 2: a sort of miracle run against USC and pulling out 1158 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:59,239 Speaker 2: a tight one against Minnesota not surprising to me. 1159 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 3: I'm curious to see again if we're thinking of this 1160 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 3: in terms of questions, what the Michigan offense looks like, 1161 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,000 Speaker 3: if it is Jack Tuttle the rest of the way, 1162 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 3: I think it should be Jack Tuttle the rest of 1163 00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 3: the way. And so much of our conversation the early 1164 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 3: part of the year has been what is the Michigan offense? 1165 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 1: We don't right? What is this? 1166 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 3: Can they throw the ball? Can they not throw the ball? 1167 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 3: They even going to try to throw the ball? I 1168 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 3: think Jack Tuttle probably gives them a chance of getting 1169 00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 3: to the high water mark whatever that looks like. 1170 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 1: I just don't know. What that looks like. 1171 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 3: You know what I mean, I'd like to see him 1172 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 3: out there on a more regular capacity because I do 1173 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 3: think he's probably the more able of the three passers 1174 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 3: that they've got in that quarterback room right now. 1175 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 2: So Michigan moving forward, their final six games of the 1176 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 2: year has exclusively decent defenses at a minimum. 1177 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. 1178 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 2: On the schedule, Oh yeah, and it's Illinois, Michigan State, Oregon, Indiana, 1179 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 2: Northwestern Ohio State. A lot of those games are winnable. 1180 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 2: Michigan can beat Northwestern Indiana, Michigan State, Illinois. They can 1181 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 2: win those games with good defense, timely running, smart passing 1182 00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 2: that isn't necessarily downfield. It's not necessarily electric, but just 1183 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:11,120 Speaker 2: a smart game plan. 1184 00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 1185 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 3: If there's scoring thirty in all of those games, well 1186 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 3: that's it, that's it. How much do you have to 1187 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 3: score to win those games? 1188 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 1: Right? And yeah, I got some questions continue. 1189 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 3: I think that the next least surprising quote unquote upsets 1190 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 3: got to be the Miszoo game because Miszoo was actually 1191 00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 3: the underdog. Miszoo was an underdog on were they on 1192 00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 3: the road, two and a half point dog at kickoff. 1193 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 3: This was an upset in terms of them being ranked 1194 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 3: significantly higher than texts. 1195 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 1: The magnitude too, Yeah, the magnitude. 1196 00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 3: So to say that I'm surprised that they lost this game, 1197 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 3: I'm not surprised they lost this game. I'm surprised the 1198 00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 3: manner in which they lost this game, right, And the 1199 00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 3: question for me with Miszoo now moving forward is really 1200 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:05,120 Speaker 3: the same one that I had coming into this game. 1201 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,520 Speaker 3: It is we look back. Okay, they were close against Fandy, 1202 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 3: won that game. They were close against Boston College, won 1203 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 3: that game. Winning is a skill. We set it off 1204 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,720 Speaker 3: and on the show when to win doesn't always matter 1205 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 3: how much you win by. But to lose in this capacity, 1206 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 3: to lose as badly as they lost, seem hapless, to 1207 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,200 Speaker 3: seem like they were falling apart on the sidelines, to 1208 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 3: be this defunct along both lines, I think there needs 1209 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:42,080 Speaker 3: to be a question about if we're asking does Georgia 1210 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 3: have another gear, does Mazoo have it within them to 1211 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 3: kind of pick up the pieces right and get back 1212 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:50,360 Speaker 3: on the street and narrow This is still a team 1213 00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 3: that's got a lot in front of them. I mean, 1214 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 3: you look at the schedule. They go to Alabama in 1215 00:59:55,080 --> 01:00:00,080 Speaker 3: a couple of weeks. Otherwise, it's pretty wide open in 1216 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 3: terms of SEC talent. On that schedule. They've got UMass 1217 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 3: On an SEC team, They've got Auburn, They've got Oklahoma, 1218 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 3: South Carolina, Mississippi State in Arkansas. These are very winnable games, 1219 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 3: but they're only winnable if they can get their act again. 1220 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 1: I mean, they're winnable by whom. 1221 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 2: Though this year's Missouri team recip State is relative to 1222 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:21,320 Speaker 2: other schedules. 1223 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:22,720 Speaker 3: That we have seen in the SEC, this is about 1224 01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 3: the easiest that you're gonna find the right. 1225 01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:27,360 Speaker 1: I agree, and so I would say it's winnable. 1226 01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:32,240 Speaker 3: If you are truly a top fifteen caliber team, you 1227 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 3: should be able to win those games. 1228 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:36,720 Speaker 2: I think so too. They just haven't shown it this year. 1229 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 2: What their best win is Vandy, which now in retrospect 1230 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:46,800 Speaker 2: is a more impressive win. But yeah, I think on 1231 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:49,960 Speaker 2: the flip side of what you're saying that South Carolina 1232 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 2: can now view. 1233 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 1: Miszoo as a lot more winnable. 1234 01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:55,840 Speaker 2: Oh on that teams like that are now looking at 1235 01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 2: Missoo in the same way we were like, oh well, 1236 01:00:58,360 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 2: maybe our schedule just. 1237 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 1: Got a little bitty hunters. Miszoo is not locked in. 1238 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 3: I think the next least surprising most surprising is probably 1239 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 3: the Minnesota USC game, and we don't need to belabor 1240 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 3: the point on that one. I think we already mentioned 1241 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 3: some of the questions we have about UC. This is 1242 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 3: not a USC dunk contest here on the show, but 1243 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,439 Speaker 3: suffice to say, going on the road and losing that game, 1244 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:25,919 Speaker 3: we will get answers to some USC questions. 1245 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 1: This week when penn S comes to town. 1246 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, and so maybe we can save some of those 1247 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,640 Speaker 3: questions for that point in time. That then brings us 1248 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 3: to the last game that we have not talked about 1249 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 3: in terms of surprisingly surprising. I think number two on 1250 01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 3: this list is probably Tennessee losing to Arkansas. 1251 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm pretty surprised by it. 1252 01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 1: To be clear, what surprised you the most. 1253 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:50,439 Speaker 2: I thought Tennessee going into the game had too many 1254 01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 2: ways to win. Like I think they they probably still 1255 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,920 Speaker 2: do have a number of edges that I think should 1256 01:01:56,920 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 2: win this game eight out of ten times or something 1257 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 2: like that that. I think their pop downfield on offense 1258 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:06,080 Speaker 2: is superior. I think their ability to pass the rush 1259 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 2: past the rusher or past the rusher rush the passer 1260 01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 2: there we go is superior. I think their star power 1261 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 2: is superior. I think the in game ability of their 1262 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 2: head coach is superior. I think they weren't able to 1263 01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 2: make adjustments against Texas A and M literally the week before, 1264 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:27,520 Speaker 2: and Tennessee, while not a finished product and starting a 1265 01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 2: first time guy at quarterback, has run the ball relatively 1266 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 2: well this year, if not extremely well at times. I 1267 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:39,440 Speaker 2: just thought they were further along than Arkansas, and I 1268 01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:42,040 Speaker 2: didn't take into account that it's just difficult to win 1269 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 2: in tough places in the SEC, as it is in 1270 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:48,440 Speaker 2: any conference. But there seemed to be a frenzy in Fayetteville, 1271 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:52,760 Speaker 2: and there is a wild card nature to Arkansas that 1272 01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 2: you don't really know what you're getting drive to drive, 1273 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:59,080 Speaker 2: but the best of Arkansas is still pretty dangerous, the 1274 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:03,920 Speaker 2: best of Tailing Green still pretty dangerous. And I just 1275 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,520 Speaker 2: going into the game felt like Tennessee was further along. 1276 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:08,520 Speaker 1: I felt that they were further along. 1277 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 3: And the I think lingering question for me coming out 1278 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 3: of it is one that I thought we had answered 1279 01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 3: going in, yeah, which was the Nico factor, And it 1280 01:03:18,080 --> 01:03:20,920 Speaker 3: really struck me. It still is with me that I 1281 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 3: went back and I watched that game again this morning 1282 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 3: Nico was rattled in that game. 1283 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 1: Redshirt freshman. 1284 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, and right, most redshirt freshmen in that hostile, road 1285 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 3: sec environment at night would be a bit rattled. We 1286 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 3: kind of assumed that he was a cut above that 1287 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 3: because we saw what he did against Saint Cy State. 1288 01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 1: We saw generally. 1289 01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:47,360 Speaker 3: Speaking, a pretty polished performance against Oklahoma, even though the 1290 01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 3: offense was definitely held in checked to some extent. This 1291 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 3: is the first time that I came out of a 1292 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 3: game saying, oh, you can rattle this guy. And it's 1293 01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 3: a question that I bring up here because they've got 1294 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 3: a rivalry game against Florida this weekend. Now I don't 1295 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,560 Speaker 3: think too highly of the Florida defense, but I said, 1296 01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:05,040 Speaker 3: they're converting pressures to sacks. 1297 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 1: Okay, can they rattle them? 1298 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:10,880 Speaker 3: Maybe got a game against Alabama a couple of weeks. 1299 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one that's going to have a lot of 1300 01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 1: pressure attached to it. 1301 01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 3: Kentucky. Kentucky is going to find a way to make 1302 01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 3: it uncomfortable. We have already seen that this year. They're 1303 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:22,080 Speaker 3: on the road at Georgia. That goes without saying. They 1304 01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 3: close out the year on the road against Vandy, which 1305 01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:29,000 Speaker 3: say no more.

He got 1318 01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:04,440 Speaker 2: to sit and sort of get those mental reps as 1319 01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 2: you know, and the practice reps whatever as the number 1320 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:10,200 Speaker 2: two guy.
