Steve O, 22 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: I am subscribing to a TCU blowout. Yeah, forty one 23 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: fourteen the lead over North Carolina, and it's gotten to 24 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,559 Speaker 1: the point in the program where ESPN is saying, Okay, 25 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: let's unload all the flavor stuff we had about Belichick 26 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: and his dad and his kid. Let's see all let's 27 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: see all the old video. Now it's a fourth quarter 28 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,199 Speaker 1: of a forty point game. Let's show all the great 29 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: interesting stuff so people will stay and watch the rest 30 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: of the way. 31 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 3: I thought they unloaded all of that in the one 32 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 3: hour pregame LoveFest before this kickoff. You know, as you mentioned, 33 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 3: TCU was not a bad team last year. They came 34 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 3: in here favored on the road. I didn't expect to 35 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 3: blow out. Quite honestly, It's forty one fourteen TCU with 36 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 3: about ten and a half minutes to go, and they're 37 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 3: driving again into the red zone. But my goodness, has 38 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 3: this been lopsided? Just ridiculously so. After the tar Heels 39 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: opening drive TD TCU down to the one yard. 40 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: Line right now. Yeah, look what we talked about this 41 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: beginning of last hour week came on and TCU jumps 42 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: out in the second half and they get a touchdown 43 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: early to make a twenty seven to seven. And look, 44 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: I wasn't surprised. I'm not surprised, right, I'm not surprised 45 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: that TCU is winning this game this this much because 46 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: you know, now forty one fourteen, Yeah, that's the thing. 47 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 1: But it's not surprised. But TCU was dominating because you know, 48 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: all the pageantry aside, now all the bits and here's 49 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: Belichick and oh my goodness, and here's Belichick and his 50 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: kid in Belichick and Belichick and Belichick, all the attention. Uh, 51 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: you know, TCU is still an eight win team and 52 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: they were, you know, one game away from potentially being 53 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: a playoff team last year. And North Carolina is a 54 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: mid Acson program right at best. So I mean, you know, 55 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 1: six and six, okay, you know it's still six wins. 56 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: However you want to you know, said like, they're a 57 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: mid program at best, and so you know when they 58 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: came in. Honestly, the big surprise to me was the 59 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: fact that, wow, North Carolina goes down the field and 60 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 1: scores right away. Suddenly you know, all the all the 61 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: the narrative of look at Belichick right this. The dangers 62 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: of live tweeting a game when you want to just 63 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: get out there. I can't wait to talk. 64 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:03,839 Speaker 4: Oh. 65 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: I told you Belichick could be great. I told you 66 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: look at him. Everybody's looking up at Belichick. He's gonna 67 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: be in the playoff. 68 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. 69 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: That is not just a freezing cold take. It is 70 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 3: free It's like immediately a bad take touchdown TCU. By 71 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 3: the way, extra Foyd'll make it forty eight to fourteen 72 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 3: at North Carolina. 73 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd mean, look, I'm not surprised they're winning this 74 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: game because they are the better team. And I will 75 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: say this, okay about motivation. Right, we made a big 76 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: comparison last hour or two. No matter what happens tonight, 77 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: North Carolina is the a story of the year in 78 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: college football because of Bill Belichick, just like Dion and 79 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: Colorado was in twenty three. You have famous alum showing 80 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: up at the game showing all kinds of support. Right. 81 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: We saw it in Colorado, We see it tonight here 82 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: in North Carolina. Even even players who played for Belichick 83 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: and didn't go to North Carolina are there like it's 84 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: that kind that's that kind of story. The same kind 85 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: of energy surrounds North Carolina and Belichick surrounded Colorado and 86 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: Deon Sanders when Deon Sanders and Colorado burst on the 87 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: scene in twenty twenty three, right that big forty five 88 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: forty two win Week one of the regular season where 89 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: Travis Yunder was great and Shador Sanders was great. It 90 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 1: was against these TCU horn Foggs. You don't think that 91 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: was a big part of the discussion going into the game. 92 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: You don't think that was a big thing. Hey, two 93 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: years ago, same spot we were, so everybody's talking about 94 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: this other team and the coach and what happened. The 95 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: spotlight was too bright force. We should have won that game. 96 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you play that game at the end of 97 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: the year, you're like, wow, man, we should have won 98 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: that game by fifty. So I guarantee you that was 99 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: a little bit more extra set of motivation for TCU 100 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: coming into this, just because two years ago we saw 101 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: this exact same thing. We're making sure we're not on 102 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: the other side of that tonight. 103 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 3: You know what, North Carolina's on the other side of 104 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 3: tonight of whooping and absolute whooping for fourteen I mean, 105 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: it could not have gone worse. Well, okay, that's if 106 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: there wasn't an opening touchdown to talk about. 107 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: I guess I don't even gonna say they were on 108 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: the opposite side of winning. I thought, that's your well set. 109 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: That is an understatement, the understatement of the night. The 110 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: next two games are against Charlotte and Richmond. If they 111 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: don't beat Richmond by double digits, I mean, do you 112 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: just pulled up the tents and go home now? Because 113 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. They don't play most of the good 114 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: teams in the ACC this year. They do have to 115 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: play Clemson in about a month. I mean, what is 116 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: this season going to be looking like? Well? Look, and 117 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: that's the that's the big takeaway from this now, and 118 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: that in one in one game or really well, since 119 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 1: the opening drive of this game, it's gone from North 120 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: Carolina comes into this game, look at their schedule, right, 121 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: they have Clemson, but that's it. Everybody else looks like 122 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: they could be beatable, right, they don't play that. And 123 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: that's the big thing that people forget now about college 124 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: football with the expanded teams and there's you know, twenty 125 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: five teams in each of the big conferences, is that 126 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: you can't play everybody, and you miss everybody. And while 127 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: certain matchups are always going to be tried and true, Michigan, 128 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: Ohio State always gonna play Michigan's gonna play Penn State, 129 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: or House they'll play PA which is not really fair. 130 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 3: Has already said their schedule starting next year, you're gonna 131 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 3: play this set of opponents and just rotate every couple 132 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: of years with the others. You can't play everybody, and 133 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 3: it is an expanded playoffs, so a team like SMU 134 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 3: can pile up the wins and like last year, get 135 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 3: into the postseason. 136 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: So when when you understand that, it's like, Okay, here's 137 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: here's North Carolina schedule, right, Charlotte next week, Richmond, Central Florida, Clemson, 138 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: cal Virginia, Syracuse, Stanford, Wake Forest, Duke, North Carolina State, Like, 139 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: these are all games that you would think in theory 140 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: they're winnable. Now you don't know, Hey, what is Syracuse 141 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: gonna look like at the end of October? What's you know, 142 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: what's Duke gonna look like at the end you know, 143 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: early in November? Right, you don't know, but right now, hey, 144 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: North Carolina a mid program. All right, this is a 145 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: very easy schedule, and you have to take advantage of 146 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: easy schedules. Right, It's how you how did Indiana get 147 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: to the playoff. Last year, boy, we played nobody. We 148 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: played a Michigan team that didn't have a quarterback. They 149 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: direct snapped it to Mullings and that was how they 150 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: got down the field, right, So that's how they get 151 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: into the playoffs. So all of a sudden, Belichick the 152 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: narrative kind of flipped to, hey, here he is. We're 153 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: ready for the season. They've been drama free for the summer, right, 154 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: not a lot of Jordan Hudson stuff. There's been two 155 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: and a half months of Okay, we gotta make sure 156 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: we're getting ready for the year, and there can't be 157 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: any more any more distractions, any more bad storylines to 158 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: what's going on here. So now you look at the schedule, go, wow, 159 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: this could really be a year where maybe just North 160 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: Carolina win ten games, can they sneak into the playoff? 161 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: Because you know, Bill Belichick is gonna get the benefit 162 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: of the doubt if his team is really good, right, Okay, Belichick, 163 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: of course're gonna let Beelichick in the playoffs. Now, it's 164 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: the flip side of it, and I know it's one game, 165 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: but it's one game where you are getting boat raced 166 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: by a team that yeah, they're better than you, and 167 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: they're good, but are they this much better? And so 168 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: suddenly now all of the old worries you had about 169 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: North Carolina coming into this year now they're even worse, 170 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: right because you had Belichick coming in? How long is 171 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: he really there for? Does he want to jump to 172 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: the NFL again? The headlines with Jordan Hudson, A lot 173 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: of chaos supposedly at the school, A lot of a 174 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: lot of drama involving the the the the upper offices 175 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: of college football at North Carolina and and Belichick and 176 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: what he's doing and how the recruiting is going. There's 177 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: a lot of hey, the jury is out right. But 178 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: then you get to this season and suddenly if it's 179 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: a year where you have an easy schedule and you 180 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: are the same, or you're worse. You're still a mid 181 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: program or you're worse. I mean, like it tells you 182 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: how long does Belichick have to win? I mean, I 183 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: get it's one game, but wow, this is one game 184 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: that you say, how the hell do you make this? 185 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,239 Speaker 1: But the pressure to beat Charlotte next week is immense. 186 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you and see Charlotte could be 187 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: ending your season, Like how long does Belichick have coming 188 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: off of the drama? Because you can see how we'll 189 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,479 Speaker 1: play at the end of the year. If North Carolina 190 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: is bad, who's gonna who's gonna say, Hey, i'm a 191 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: I want to go play for Belichick? You're thinking how 192 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 1: much longer is a guy really gonna be there? He's 193 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: seventy four years old. This season was a disaster. Am 194 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 1: I gonna get the recruits? They're all gonna go to 195 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: bigger schools in the ACC. I just saw what happened 196 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: this year. This is an absolute mess. Why am I 197 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: going to Belichick at North Carolina? And then suddenly, for 198 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: North Carolina's perspective, it's is this worth it? Right? Like? 199 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: Is this worth it? We spent a lot of money, 200 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: we went in on Belichick and now look at what 201 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: a disaster this season was. Is it time to have 202 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: a conversation about a joint moving on? And And I mean, 203 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: I know it's one game, but again, that's the stakes 204 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: right now and where that's sometimes how fast things can change, 205 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: especially in college football, And that's where we are right 206 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: now with this situation, is that this is just such 207 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: a bad thing for Belichick in North Carolina. You're saying, 208 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: how do you fix this? I mean, can you fix 209 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: this enough to where you can instill confidence that I'm 210 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: the guy to continue to turn this thing around at 211 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: North Carolina. 212 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 3: On paper to make something of this first season. And 213 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 3: granted there were not im mense expectations of the program 214 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 3: his first season in, but there were only so many 215 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 3: games on the paper schedule that said, you know, you 216 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: pretty much have to show in this game. I mean 217 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: it was a finite and minute amount, and this was 218 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 3: one of them. You had National TV all to yourself 219 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: because the NFL hasn't started yet, Monday Night Football was you. 220 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 3: And they're down forty eight to fourteen mid fourth quarter 221 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 3: to TCU right now, and there's an immense amount of 222 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 3: empty light blue seats showed showing in the stadium still 223 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 3: with this much time left, and I'm fully expecting Jordan 224 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 3: Hudson to go straight into the booths and say we're 225 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 3: not talking about this and start turning off the lights 226 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 3: and see if ESPN can go off the air at 227 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 3: this point, because this has gotten too embarrassing. After scoring 228 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 3: a touchdown on the first drive, they've been outscored forty 229 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 3: eight to seven. 230 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: You know, I want to say I can't picture her 231 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: going into the broadcast booth during the game and asking 232 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: them the cut to commercial. 233 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 6: But I actually can see that, absolutely, I actually can 234 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 6: picture that happened. You know what I can picture. You know, 235 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 6: the backup quarterback has been good. Tonight, Max Johnson, the 236 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 6: starter Go Lopez left with injury. He had an interception, 237 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 6: he had a fumble that fell behind big Max Johnson 238 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 6: coming back from injury, gets back on the field and 239 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 6: he's nine of eleven over one hundred yards, passing in 240 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 6: a touchdown. But if he wasn't good off the bench 241 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 6: and they were going to go to somebody else, I 242 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 6: was fully expecting Michael Lombardi to be his third quarterback 243 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 6: where North Carolina's from tonight the general manager of the 244 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 6: tar Heels, because you can pretty much, I mean, this 245 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 6: is he can't make This isn't the NFL. You can't 246 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 6: make a trade here mid season and try and add 247 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 6: some people. This is college the roster you start with, 248 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 6: well you're kind of stuck with and he is really 249 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 6: stuck at this point. 250 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and look, and it's so how things change, right. 251 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: We talked about this with Jason lock and for last hour, 252 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick now, Belichick has had some bad defeats over 253 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: the course of his NFL career. 254 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 3: Couple years ago you mentioned, yeah. 255 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: He lost in the playoff company. I think it was 256 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: like forty five to fourteen or something against the Bills 257 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: and the playoffs. But the worst he had I remember 258 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: going he lost thirty one nothing to the Bills. Again, 259 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: that was really big. That was in like two thousand 260 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: and three, I think a couple of years ago. Yeah, 261 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: yeahs open. He lost opening week to the Bills thirty 262 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: one nothing in like two thousand and three, and we thought, Okay, 263 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: the lera is over for the Patriots, and then the 264 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: last game of the season he beat the Bills thirty 265 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: one nothing, so like he flipped it right. But the 266 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: worst loss he has had was that game you mentioned 267 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 1: against the Cowboys a couple of years ago, his last 268 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: year in New England, when things were done, thirty eight 269 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: to three, lost by thirty five points. TCU has their 270 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: backups in now and they're running the football. It's a 271 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: forty eight to fourteen lead. Right now. TCU gets the 272 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: end zone again. It's officially and North Carolina and score again. 273 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: It's officially the worst loss of Bill Belichick's career. 274 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 3: By the time it was twenty seven to seven, the 275 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 3: stat came out that only one other time in Belichick's 276 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 3: career had he trailed a season opener by twenty points 277 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 3: as a head coach, and that was over twenty years ago. 278 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 3: The thirty one nothing lost to the Bills. 279 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: This, I mean really, this is and they're showing everybody 280 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: on their phones now in the stands and they're just 281 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: everybody's just waiting for the game.

Sometimes 288 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: things change so bad so quickly in college football, you think, 289 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: how long does Belichick have to win? After a night 290 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: like tonight Again, forty eight to fourteen is the TCU lead. 291 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: They have the football, they are in North Carolina Territory. Uh, 292 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: they've run the ball I think seventeen consecutive plays, So 293 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna throw the ball at your cards. 294 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: Well yeah, yeah, I didn't need to throw the beginning 295 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: of the game. But you know, he Hoover was really 296 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: good too.

It is now 349 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 3: forty eight to fourteen TCU. So here. Bill Belichick's had 350 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 3: almost fifty years as an NFL head coach or assistant. 351 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 3: His teams never once allowed forty eight points or more 352 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: in a game, And in his first night as a 353 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 3: college head coach, forty eight for TCU. 354 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: Five hundred and forty three total yards for TCU, and 355 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: the coaching staff has taken off their headsets. I don't 356 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: think TCU were the first and goal at the eight 357 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: is gonna run another play? I mean maybe they do. 358 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, it be really weird, uh Jim. Yeah, 359 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: well especially Hey, I'm gonna get revenge for all the 360 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: times Belichick did this in the NFL. Yeah, TCU. Yeah, 361 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: they're running a Neil down play. So that's gonna be 362 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: a final snap. This is gonna be a forty eight 363 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: fourteen final. The horn Frogs absolutely blow out North Carolina 364 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: and it was outside of the first drive of the 365 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: game that was as good as it got for North Carolina. 366 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: We'll bring you Bill Belichick's press conference when he maybe 367 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: he'll talk, I don't know. I mean he may just 368 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: to say, you know, I'm done. 369 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 3: I think it will be a lot of dead air. 370 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 3: As we say in the radio business. 371 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 8: They they executed, and you know, we got some things 372 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 8: to work on offense, defense, special teams, you know, just some. 373 00:17:54,800 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 3: Just but just got to get another hoodie. 374 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: He is being escorted off the field. Oh that's going 375 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: to be a meme. Belichick gives the camera a huge stare, like, 376 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: don't get too close to me. As he's being escorted 377 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: off the field. 378 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 3: It was not him actually getting arrested. I think surrounding him. 379 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 3: There are as many law enforcement members around him as 380 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 3: there were points allowed to He's in big trouble, Steven. 381 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: I think so. I think they might have had. I 382 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: think they might have more mounties surrounding him than first downs. 383 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 3: Should be arrested for impersonating an acc football team. 384 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: Ooh boy, Sunny Dyke's doing the postgame interview as soon 385 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: as Belichick talks, will bring it to you. But just 386 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: to finish when this game second before we get told. 387 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 3: Me the PR guy, the s I D at the 388 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 3: North Carolina program working with Belichick. If it's this kind 389 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 3: of season this year. 390 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: Remember the scene in Airplane when Robert Hayes is just 391 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: sweating down his entire face. And that's what it's got 392 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: to be for to be the PR guy right now, 393 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: you know, you spent the whole game like talking to people, Okay, great, 394 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: we got this, we got this. Yeah we lose. Now 395 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: you it's like, oh man, nobody like the. 396 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 3: Nation is leaving. The attention is gone after tonight for 397 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 3: the rest of the season. 398 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure I saw the sidach year AFTERCU scored. 399 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: See that's the thing, Steve, I think you're wrong because 400 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: one thing we like in sports is a train wreck, right, 401 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: and this is not Hey, a team that we thought 402 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: was gonna be good and you lose a couple of 403 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: games and they go away. Right if if Michigan isn't 404 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: good and they lose a couple of games, Look were 405 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: they in the national conversation last year? No, not really, 406 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: because they lost a couple of games down they come 407 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: back in at the end and they beat Ohio State 408 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: and it becomes a thing. But usually you lose a 409 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: couple of games in college football, we move on because 410 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: we don't have time for you, because, hey, you're not 411 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: going to the playoffs. We know this, right. It's not 412 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: the NFL where you can start zero to three and 413 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: figure it out. We know we move on. But Belichick 414 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: is such a huge story. He's the Colorado and Deon 415 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: Sanders of this year for twenty twenty three. 416 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 3: Without them, but it was always efforvested and had something 417 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 3: to say and he could create a storyline. Belichick's not 418 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 3: gonna do any of that. And on their twelve game schedule, 419 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 3: ESPN was only scheduled to tear to carry two other 420 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 3: games of the rest of their season. They're not gonna 421 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 3: be adding North Carolina games. 422 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: Now, I don't know. 423 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 3: I the Belichick Stanford. 424 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, But but the attention on it, 425 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: it's it's look, it's gonna be just like just like Colorado. Right, 426 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: we talked about coming in that it's like when Dion 427 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: takes over, right that you know it's some kind of 428 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: new energy and he's got some good players. But we 429 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: saw after September, well, okay, the overall, end all be 430 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: all because it was the only story in college football. Okay, 431 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: that went away a little bit because Colorado started losing, 432 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: right Okay, and now Dion was new to college football, 433 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: and and the Colorado story was like a commet, like 434 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: it was white hot, so you knew it couldn't stay 435 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: white hot forever. Okay, Colorado loses, things kind of go 436 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: away a little bit. With Belichick in North Carolina, Belichick 437 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: is a different person out We've talked about Bill Belichick. 438 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: He's been a big deal for the better part of 439 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: the last twenty years. Deon Sanders was a big star 440 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: when he played. He's on TV NFL network. Right, he 441 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: went to become a head coach an FCS and then 442 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: got the gig at Colorado. But it's different. Belichick is 443 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: a much He's much more and off the Field storyline 444 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,719 Speaker 1: because of his relationship with Jordan Hudson hitting whatever happens 445 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: with Bill Belichick, because we could be looking at the 446 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: end of his career of a guy that we thought 447 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: was the best head coach in the history of the 448 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: NFL with his Super Bowls and coming in and Brady 449 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: and debating who's more responsible, Brady Belichick, which way is it? 450 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,239 Speaker 1: Like Belichick's got a lot more cache built up into this, 451 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 1: and the failure of Belichick is gonna have way more 452 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: eyeballs on it than the failure of Deon Sanders that 453 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: first year with Colorado, right, And that's why, you know, 454 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: whatever it is for him, it's like, man, yeah, maybe 455 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: teams aren't picking up on it, and maybe maybe you're 456 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: gonna have to find the game on CBS Sports Network 457 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 1: or if the game is on FS one, a North 458 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: Carolina game and you know when they play Charlotte, you know, 459 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: or the OA Show. Yeah, but right, you're gonna follow. 460 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 3: It right after the slippery steps, You're. 461 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: Gonna follow it, and it's gonna be a story because 462 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: the fall of Belichick is just as intriguing as the 463 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: rise of Belichick. Like if they're really bad or mediocre 464 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: it's just the same as them being great. Now okay, now, 465 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: them being great, obviously they'd be more attention. Their games 466 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: will be, but the but the attention we're gonna spend it, 467 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: people will spend talking about them. There's two stories this 468 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: college football season. It's Arch Manning and it's Bill Belichick, 469 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: and that's not going. 470 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 3: Away, or this story of North Carolina's twenty twenty five 471 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 3: season goes the way of the torpedo bat which nobody 472 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 3: quickly nobody talked about anymore. This team is going nowhere. 473 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 3: And one big difference compared to Colorado a couple of 474 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 3: years ago is you could tune in because we felt 475 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 3: like we knew the quarterback. Hey dion Son, Hey, you know, 476 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 3: maybe you watch the FCS, you know, HBCU title game, 477 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 3: or you know there was something to see on the field, 478 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 3: and certainly Travis Hunter became something to see on the field. 479 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 3: This roster has none of that. So in a North 480 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 3: Carolina broadcast for the rest of the season, whatever cable 481 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 3: company picks up a game, if they do, unless they 482 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 3: show Belichick ten times on the sidelines, there may not 483 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: be much to see. 484 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: Well, of course they're gonna show that. That's all they're 485 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: gonna show. It's that's Belichick, watch Shortan Hudson. But sure 486 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: it is, Sure it is. But we love we love 487 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: the train wreck almost as much as we love dynasties. 488 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 3: And what games, What North Carolina games are going to 489 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:30,959 Speaker 3: get national? 490 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: They will go crazy for Belichick, right. Belichick has been 491 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: antagonistic with the media with fans his entire career. 492 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 3: They're adding the way Forest game and the upf game. 493 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: The Patriots got. 494 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 3: The tea cheated on against all your teams. Everybody's gonna 495 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 3: want to watch his failure. Network should carry it. 496 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, but this is the thing. Is 497 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: that Okay? So next week they play a four o'clock 498 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 1: game against Charlotte, right just to just to play it out. 499 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 3: With me here, and nobody's carrying it right. 500 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: No one's carrying it well right now, ESPN Plus has 501 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: you'll be able to get it if you really want it, right, 502 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: But what game? And it doesn't matter if you even 503 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: watch the game. That's the thing. It's all about the results. 504 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. Like you can watch Michigan and Alabama 505 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: next week and just keeping a oh Man North Carolina 506 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: and North Carolina Shark. It's fourteen fourteen midway of the 507 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Oh my goodness, what's gonna happen if they lose? 508 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: It's just about the result for Belichick in North Carolina. 509 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: He's such a big, oversized personality that is polarizing that 510 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: people are gonna watch they want to watch the fall. Yeah, 511 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: they will watch the fall, right. I mean, there's some 512 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: that want to see him succeed, and him succeeding would 513 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: be an incredible story. Because we spend more time talking 514 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: about the teams that are great regardless. But when you 515 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: have a team like the Dallas Cowboys, if they stink 516 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: this year, you think we're not gonna cover them every 517 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: single week. After the Micah Parsons trade, they're story number 518 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,719 Speaker 1: one all year long. The Jets could be undefeated, they 519 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: could be fourteen and zero. Justin Fields, the front runner 520 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: for MV got thirty eight touchdowns through twelve weeks, and 521 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys are four and eight, gets what the 522 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: number one story is the Cowboys being four and eight 523 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: trying to find a way to win. No, Micah Parsons, 524 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: It's still gonna be that way because that's kind of 525 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: how we watch sports, It's kind of how we consume 526 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: it and the Belichick North Carolina thing. It doesn't match. 527 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: Just gonna keep going. 528 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 3: After this atrocious and opening they lose forty eight to 529 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: fourteen at home to TCU tonight. It's not a bigger 530 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 3: story next Saturday night than Michigan Oklahoma. 531 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: Uh. If North Carolina loses to Charlotte next week, I 532 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 1: think it's the same story. I think it's the same 533 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: size story as Michigan Oklahoma. It becomes the the one 534 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: A one or one A story of the week. All 535 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Wait, you're owing too. You lost to 536 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: North Carolina Charlotte, You got Richmond coming up, and you 537 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: still haven't won a game. Oh my goodness, Like it 538 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: becomes that big a deal only because it's all it 539 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: could be. Like. It's not like this could be Belichick 540 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: where he loses and we say, okay, this could be 541 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: the end of Belichick's career. The NFL didn't want to 542 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: be sure as hell. No one else is looking saying, boy, 543 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,959 Speaker 1: we missed out bringing Belichick back after this game, correct, 544 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 1: Like we're looking at what could be the end of 545 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: his career. 546 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 3: By mid October. This might be like the Linsanity story. 547 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,719 Speaker 1: Oh wow, hey he just retired Jeremy Lynn. He just 548 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: over the weekend. Steve, Yeah, he just retired. 549 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 3: Man, give the guy a little I'm sorry. Did I 550 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 3: not see him play in North America last year? 551 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: Was a little bit. 552 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 4: He was real quick. Just to know where Jason's coming from. 553 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 4: Imagine your team is the Jets. Sorry, but just Imagineichick 554 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 4: and the Patriots gave him. People like Jason are gonna 555 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 4: want to see. They're gonna come out they hate watch Belichick. 556 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 3: I'm just saying it's not a parallel to Colorado because 557 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 3: Colorado had a product on the field. 558 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, but Colorado also when they started losing lost interest, 559 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: even with Shador Sander and Travis Right, he's polarizing, right, 560 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: But more people don't like Belichick than like him. Right, 561 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 1: Dion was polarizing. Right. He's more of a fifty to 562 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 1: fifty down the middle. More Belichick has been because of 563 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: how he's treated the media, how he's talked. He's not 564 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 1: someone that gives you the warm fuzzies. But he has 565 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: a lot of people who respect him, obviously for what 566 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: he's accomplished in the NFL. But the flip side is, 567 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 1: boy that got caught in two cheating scandals. So there's that, 568 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: but the hate watching for Belichick will be much bigger 569 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: than it ever was for Dion. 570 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 3: It's September first. Their next scheduled TV game is not 571 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 3: until mid October, so it's gonna be a Friday night 572 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 3: while the show is on. They're gonna play an ACC 573 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 3: game at cal So. Being on the West Coast, it 574 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 3: literally will be on throughout the show. So between now 575 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 3: and mid October, I just don't know how huge a 576 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 3: story on this show it'll get talked about on until. 577 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: They're on. I guarantee you next week they will find 578 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: a way to get that front and center. They will 579 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: find a way to get that on a better way 580 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: to see it than ESPN Plus if you can. But 581 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: then the week after that, the game's on ACC Network, 582 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: which is on most cable channels, and the Clemson game, 583 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: which is TBD. You know they're gonna find a way 584 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: to put that on there. Bill Belichick against Clemson, Who's 585 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: likely still gonna be a Top twenty now if Clemson 586 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: loses the next three games and lost this weekend, but 587 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 1: Clemson's still pretty good, Kate Clebnick is really good. They 588 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: lost a tough game this week and I'm still I'm 589 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: not out on Clemson at all, but I'm sure that 590 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: game will wind up being on national TV. Then you 591 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: talk about cal like the Syracuse game after that is 592 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: on national TV too, I think you might, Uh, Steve, 593 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: this is that I think you're you're underestimating the hate 594 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: watching of Belichick. 595 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 3: No, I'm not saying that people won't watch. I'm saying, 596 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 3: as a story, the air is out of the balloon 597 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,239 Speaker 3: as of tonight because there is no product on the 598 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 3: field to sell. 599 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: Unlike Colorado, Steve de Sager, who if he was the 600 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: a D at North Carolina, would fire Bill Belichick after tonight. 601 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: He would walk in and say, well, Steve, say Bill, 602 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: you've had it. You and Steve and every Michael Lombardi, 603 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: everybody get out. I'm changing things up. 604 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 3: Start with Jordan and I don't mean Michael. College football 605 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 3: had well, they had all the eyebells eyeballs on themselves 606 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 3: tonight because you know, the NFL hasn't started. So the 607 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 3: Monday night football matchup was TCU down seven to nothing 608 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 3: quickly at North Carolina. Eventually the horn Frogs beat the 609 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 3: tar Heels forty eight to fourteen. TCU had over two 610 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty yards passing and almost two hundred and 611 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 3: sixty yards rushing as well.

The Steelers gave running back 621 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 3: Jalen Warren a two year exten worth a reported twelve 622 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 3: million dollars guaranteed.

Juan Soto, by the way, well, 669 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 3: it was a first to have a go ahead Grand 670 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: Slam and a go ahead multi run triple in the 671 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 3: same game had never happened before. He winds up with 672 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 3: the six ribbies that save to Edwin Diez ten eight 673 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 3: the final at Detroit, but Cincinnati got three in the 674 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 3: bottom of the ninth to win its home game against 675 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 3: Toronto five to four. The Red still four games out 676 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 3: of the last NL wild card behind the Mets. 677 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: Back to you, but I do want to say this, boy, 678 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: remember when Juan Soda was absolutely miserable with the Mets 679 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: and things were so awful. Yeah, he's gonna have four 680 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: good offendul or forty home runs, one hundred and ten RBIs. 681 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 3: Everything is fun, an awful season. 682 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: Everything is fine. Now It's different when I say, hey, 683 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: did you know Stephen August the Mets scored more runs 684 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: in August than they did in any month in their history. 685 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: But they were eleven and seventeen. That's right, eleven and seventeen. 686 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 3: Where is the starting including today, where is the starting 687 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 3: pitching the last. 688 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: Steve, there's two starters we can trust in. One of 689 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: them's Jonah Toong who has pitched five innings at the 690 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: major league level. It's Nolan mclin and Jonah Toong And 691 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: that's it, Like, that's really it. 692 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 3: That's kind of astounding. 693 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: Actually, at least tomorrow's like McLain day. 694 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 3: So you know, Philadelphia's such a good team. If they 695 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 3: had Diaz as a closer, can you imagine to the 696 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 3: moon they would go, this is a good team lacking 697 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 3: the back end of the bullpen and something the Mets 698 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 3: actually have. 699 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: Exit out, but yeah, it's the other bullpen to get 700 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: there is a struggle. Uh, Jason Smith Steve Desager in 701 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: for Mike Harmon tonight. Okay, so that was the end. 702 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: We got more on North Carolina coming up at about 703 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: twenty minutes. As soon as Bill Belichick speaks, we will 704 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: be able to bring that to you. Now, I know 705 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: he's got a couple of things. He's got to do 706 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: the local, he's gotta do North Carolina radio, and he's 707 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: gonna do the national Wealth. There's a little bit more 708 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 1: media responsibility. We'll hear from Belichick. Coming up in a bit. 709 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,280 Speaker 1: But coming up next, why the smartest coach in college football? 710 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: Maybe a guy who retired two years ago. That's next. 711 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: Jason Smith, Steve de Sager, Fox Sports Radio. 712 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith 713 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 2: Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven 714 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 2: pm Pacific. 715 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon, 716 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: Steve de Saga in for Harmon tonight and Wow TCU 717 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: blows out North Carolina and Bill Belichick's debut forty eight fourteen. 718 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 1: We will hear from Bill Belichick coming up in about 719 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. It was meeting the media a little bit 720 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: more like in college football, you gotta do a little 721 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: bit more media. You gotta do the local radio shows after, 722 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 1: gotta do the national guys after. So we're gonna hear 723 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: from him coming up in a few minutes as he 724 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: talks about the incredible blowout loss to start his career. 725 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: But in what was a big weekend for opening weekend 726 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: for college football, right we talked about Arch Manning and 727 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: Ohio State. We'll have more on that coming up next 728 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: hour as well. But I gotta say, Steve, maybe the 729 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: smartest head coach in college football is a guy who 730 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: retired two years ago because maybe, just maybe Nick Saban 731 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: knew what he was doing leaving Alabama and retiring what 732 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 1: he did, because wow, the drop off from when when 733 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 1: he walked away to where things sit after that loss 734 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: to Florida State, My goodness, man, maybe he kind of knew. Okay, 735 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: the way this era is going, Yes, Enna, the NAL 736 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: era is not something I like the transferportal era. Maybe 737 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 1: getting to the National Championship semi final and losing on 738 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 1: the final play against Michigan, maybe that's as good as 739 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: I don't get to walk away with the National championship. 740 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: But this is as good as it's going to be. 741 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: And clearly that's about right because it was an underwhelming 742 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: year for Calen de Borda's first year last year, and wow, 743 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: did they just get boat raced by a Florida State 744 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: team that ran all over Alabama yesterday Saturday doing whatever 745 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 1: they wanted to on the ground. It was eye opening. 746 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 3: And I think you make the good point about the 747 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 3: overall I would also want to get out of college 748 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 3: football when Saban did because of college football, not necessarily 749 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 3: because of my program or whether I'm gonna get ten 750 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,240 Speaker 3: wins or anything like that. It has changed so vastly, 751 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 3: especially for someone who's essentially the equal of Bill Belichick 752 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 3: that we've been talking about, multiple championships and up in age. 753 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 3: There's no reason for him to still go through this. 754 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 3: And as many a coach says, once you get into TV, 755 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 3: you don't lose a single game anymore. He can be 756 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 3: around college football, he can be around the pageantry and 757 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 3: see his old friends and go to actually game sites 758 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 3: and not have any of the stress. And there is 759 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,720 Speaker 3: added stress that didn't exist before. 760 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: That was Steve Lavin's line all the time at ESPN. 761 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: When you know he was young enough when he stopped coaching, 762 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 1: and he was in ESPN for so long. I remember 763 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 1: having him on my show on ESPN. He come on 764 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,439 Speaker 1: after a game. I say, Steve, how you doing. He goes, hey, 765 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,840 Speaker 1: year five of being undefeated in the studio, this is great. 766 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: Like he would always saying that I'm undefeated in the studio. 767 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what I say, it doesn't matter. I 768 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: mean Rea that that's kind of how it is. And 769 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,840 Speaker 1: look at Alabama, like Calein de borr is six and 770 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: four against unranked teams. All right, nick Saban was won 771 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 1: twenty four and four against unranked teams at at Alabama. 772 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: I think about that numbers for a second. Alabama could 773 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: not run the football at all Saturday against Florida State. 774 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 1: All Florida State did was run the football two hundred 775 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: and thirty yards rushing, right, you had I think every 776 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: player that ran the football average at least four and 777 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: a half yards of carry. It was emasculating what Florida 778 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: State was able to do to Alabama. And this is 779 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 1: a bad Florida you know, I mean, like, is Florida 780 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: State back? I'm sure they're running around. Florida State is back. 781 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: We're back Florida State. Hey, this is an awesome beginning 782 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: for them. And I'm so glad because Florida State being 783 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: good is good for college football being in the ACC. 784 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,360 Speaker 1: I'm not thrilled with you know, Syracuse, but uh, Florida 785 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: State is good for college football. I don't know that 786 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: I could take another year of them not being good 787 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 1: because they're such rock stars and it's awesome for them 788 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 1: to be to be, you know, somewhat back. But this 789 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: is not suddenly a Florida State team that that you 790 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 1: can say, well, they they found they had a great 791 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 1: offseason and they were able to, you know, because they 792 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 1: tanked last year with all the draft picks they have. 793 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: You know, they go from two to ten. Now they're 794 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 1: in the playoff. I mean this was a two and 795 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: ten team last year, right, they were two inten. 796 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 3: They finished behind Stanford and Cal in the ACC. 797 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: They were absolutely awful. Right, their wins were Charleston Southern 798 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 1: and col Like, those were their wins last year, and 799 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,919 Speaker 1: they got they got boat raced by everybody. And now 800 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: suddenly you don't turn that much around in one off season. Look, 801 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: Tommy Costellanos is an okay quarterback. Right, He's not a 802 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: world beater, but he looked like someone that could do 803 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: whatever the hell he wanted to Saturday to against Alabama. 804 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: Like this was like that's why, that's what's so shocking 805 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: about this is it's not that, hey, they lost to 806 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: an elite team. They played Notre Dame, or they played Miami, 807 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 1: or they started against Ohio State. Like this is Florida 808 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: State hoping, Hey, we're hoping we can actually, you know, 809 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 1: just get Bowl eligible this year. Now suddenly Florida State's 810 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: a top twenty five team and Castellanos throws for one 811 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: fifty runs for eighty and a touchdown like this is 812 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: about as impressive as you can be. But for Alabama 813 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 1: to just get worked and dominated that way, that's absolutely stunning, 814 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: which again makes me think, maybe Nick Saban new this 815 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: is my time to get I'm gonna get out a 816 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: year early rather than a year late. Meanwhile, he could 817 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: have done one more year. Jalen Milroe stayed and you 818 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: know clearly he was one of the best quarterbacks in 819 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: the country, so potentially could have done one more. But 820 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: I think you said it, well, I'll go a year 821 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 1: early rather than ye're late. Because now here's Caylen de 822 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,839 Speaker 1: Bor at Alabama and it's wow, how long does he have? 823 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: You know, how long does Calen to Borton? Does he 824 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: have longer than Bill Belichick to try to win at 825 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: Alabama because they're not gonna They're not gonna take a 826 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 1: six and six Alabama season. Now that's not gonna go 827 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: very well. 828 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 3: And he could have gotten in the national title game. 829 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,359 Speaker 3: Saban in his final year, remember how close that Rose 830 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 3: Bull sent me fine I was against Tarborough and Michigan. 831 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 3: This is Alabama team that still has to play at 832 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 3: Georgia at the end of the month later on in 833 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 3: the SEC, they're probably gonna play four ranked teams in 834 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 3: a row. This is not a good start to this season. 835 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 3: And again, Florida State was two and ten last year. 836 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: That this is. Of all the teams that have lost 837 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: this week, like, there's a lot of it, there's a 838 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: lot of Oh, there's a lot of tens.

Well here, we're not top twenty five, 846 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: not yet. We'll be better at the end than we were. 847 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: And we were fine against Tennessee. Steve Vangeli put a 848 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: lot of points on the board. We were just awful 849 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: defensive North Carolina. 850 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 3: On the schedule, right, uh. 851 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, we got them, yeah not till thanks getting 852 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 1: not till Halloween.
