My sons are one year and 102 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 7: three days apart, Irish twins. The first time I played 103 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 7: husband and wife after my first son, I got pregnant again. 104 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: I got pregnant again. 105 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 7: I did, I carried the baby, I came to full term, 106 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 7: and you know, I can't even tell you what it's 107 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 7: like to have different sets of formula, different sized diapers, 108 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 7: two different sleeping schedules, because when they're a baby, it's 109 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 7: like two naps a day. Then it turns into one 110 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 7: like that was a mess. If you're one and done, 111 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 7: that's great. The only other advice I'd give you is financial. 112 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 6: I took one. 113 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 7: Hundred dollars a month and just shoved it away, pretending 114 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 7: like I didn't even have it. Instead of making a bet, 115 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 7: I just threw one hundred dollars away every month into 116 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 7: a five twenty nine account for my son. You do 117 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 7: the math, it's over twenty one thousand dollars. You get 118 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,119 Speaker 7: a little growth on it over the span of those years, 119 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 7: you basically have a great starter to college education. So 120 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 7: pretend like you're just missing one hundred dollars every month, 121 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 7: and then pretend like that doesn't exist. 122 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 8: And when someone says do you have a college education 123 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 8: for your kid? Boom. 124 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 7: You didn't even know that hundred was gone every month 125 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 7: because it's a bet that you didn't make on South 126 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 7: Florida or live Over. 127 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 3: Well, imagine how much that college tuition fund could have 128 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: been if you never bet Army Navy oversh so uh 129 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 3: podcast The agree the first agree for these podcasts. But 130 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 3: was Washington easy winner? Colin took it on the chin 131 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 3: in the head to heads he had the Army Navy over, 132 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 3: he had South Florida against US all And I mean, you, 133 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 3: I don't know why you wanted to bet gas. You 134 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 3: wanted the bet you want to bet South Oorba and 135 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 3: Brian Browns the quarterback, not the coach. And then Colin 136 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: also had Troy against Jacksonville State almost got there to 137 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 3: hell Mary, but who knows stuck. 138 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 4: They never showed the replay. Maybe he did catch it, 139 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 4: Like what was up with that telecast? 140 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 3: Unbelievable about Conference to USA two and oh that is. 141 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 7: One thing I'd never I thought we were fading them 142 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 7: the entire time, and look who showed up. 143 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 3: I've yeah, I've had both Conference USA teams so far, 144 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: and I was like, I'm not going to bet them, 145 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 3: so I have a head start. Maybe I should stop 146 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 3: while on my head. All right, but before we get 147 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 3: to the coachwall playoff doc, we have FCS playoffs on Saturday, 148 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,239 Speaker 3: starting with the Brawl of the Wild great rivalry between 149 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 3: Montana and Montana State. Montana State one on the road 150 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: earlier this season. I believe thirty one to twenty eight. 151 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 3: This game will be in Bozeman, right, yep. If you 152 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 3: ever go to Bozeman, one of my favorite breakfast places 153 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 3: in the country, Jam, it's amazing. 154 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 6: Go there. 155 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 3: A fun fact that you told me I read was 156 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 3: an FCS team has not won on the road in 157 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 3: the semis in ten years? Is that true yet? 158 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 6: Yeah? 159 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 5: And a good majority of that is due to North 160 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 5: Dakota State in their home dominance in the Fargo Doman 161 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 5: being in the FCS semis as routinely as they have been. 162 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 5: But yeah, we just don't see a lot of these 163 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 5: road teams show up and win on the road. This 164 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 5: will be a really fun battle. I mean, you couldn't 165 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 5: ask for anything more in an FCS semi with brawl 166 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 5: the wild two point zero. You look at Montana State 167 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 5: last week. They had their way with Stephen F. Austin 168 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 5: in the second half. They won the game forty four 169 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 5: to twenty eight. You could argue that SFA left three 170 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 5: touchdowns out on the field, something Montana is not likely 171 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 5: to do here. This Grizz offense is incredible, scoring fifty 172 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 5: points in back to back playoff games. Kiah Lee a yacht, 173 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 5: seven hundred passing yards in those two games, seven total 174 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 5: passing touchdowns. Eli Gillman and the receiver group are playing 175 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 5: really well, just really clicking on offense. And I'm not 176 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 5: convinced that Montana State is going to be able to 177 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 5: shut these guys down the way they're playing right now. 178 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 5: You look at the first meeting, Montana threw a pick 179 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 5: six and also missed a field goal, had a second 180 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 5: one blocked. Really played well despite just one receiver having 181 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 5: more than thirty one total receiving yards. I think the 182 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 5: Griz offense is going to put up a big point 183 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 5: total in this one. I don't know that Montana is 184 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 5: going to be able to stop the Bob's rushing attack 185 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 5: for a full sixty minutes. This could be one where 186 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 5: Montana's defense wears down in the second half. Montana State 187 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 5: does that to teams, where they just lean on you 188 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 5: and lean on you and then the dam breaks in 189 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter. So even with Montana getting their best 190 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 5: corner back, their best player in the secondary key on Loud, 191 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 5: that should help bolster the pass coverage unit. But I 192 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 5: don't necessarily think that we're going to see the defense 193 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 5: from Montana really show up here. It's hard to beat 194 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 5: a team twice. Montana had chances in the first meeting, 195 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 5: but now you're on the road again. A road team 196 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 5: hasn't won in the Semis in ten years. Should be 197 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 5: back and forth. Are we going to see a seven? 198 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 5: I mean we see six and a half now flashing 199 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 5: on the board, so could lean Montana's way at seven. 200 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 5: But I think this is an over game. I think 201 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 5: we'll see both these teams in the thirties. 202 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 3: I might have to look at Montana at seven. This 203 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 3: coming from someone who knows nothing on bad SCS, So 204 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 3: don't take don't take my advice. 205 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 8: Take ducks. 206 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 3: The other game Villanova with I mean they their defense 207 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 3: has been incredible in the college wall play. I though 208 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 3: they're about to get blown out. At Tarlatan, they went 209 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 3: down fourteen to nothing, places jumping, the cowboys were dancing, 210 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 3: and then Nova just slowly grinded their way back and 211 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 3: dominated most the rest of the game. And then Illinois State. 212 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: You have to be impressed with them because they pull 213 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 3: off one of the biggest upsets in SCS history. And 214 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 3: a lot of times you might see a team, you know, 215 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 3: kind of be satisfied with that, and then they go 216 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 3: on the road and you'll see them be flat, and 217 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 3: but they weren't. They dominated UC Davis and now we 218 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: have Villanova Illinois State. Is this at Nova? Yeah at 219 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 3: no hosting? Wow, who do you like here on the 220 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 3: main line? 221 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 5: And we've seen this line move pretty significantly. I do 222 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 5: think that Illinois State has a really good chance to 223 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 5: go on the road win this game. You look at 224 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 5: the way that Illinois State's game against UC Davis played out. 225 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 5: It was back and forth the entire first quarter, but 226 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 5: after going down ten to seven, Illinois State really dominated 227 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 5: from that three to four minute mark in the first 228 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 5: quarter all the way through the second half, built a 229 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 5: forty two to seventeen lead, and then UC Davis to 230 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 5: get a couple of garbage touchdowns at the end. Rittenhouse 231 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 5: back to playing really good football at quarterback for Illinois 232 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 5: State and Ice bounce back after he threw five interceptions 233 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 5: against North Dakota State the week before. I expect run 234 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 5: heavy action here from Illinois State. They ran the ball 235 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 5: seventy percent of their plays against UC Davis. They have 236 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 5: several capable backs, but Victor Dawson is going to get 237 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 5: the large majority of the carries here Nova. I mean, 238 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 5: they just keep winning games that you would think they 239 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 5: have no business winning. They were dominated by Lehigh for 240 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 5: three still found a way there. And then the way 241 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 5: they went down fourteen to nothing against Tarleton State, you 242 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 5: could have made a case that the route was on. 243 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 5: They were plus twenty seven and a half live at 244 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 5: one point in that game. But you know what, they 245 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,359 Speaker 5: battled back. The defense stuck in there and they completely 246 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 5: shut down Tarleton State's passing attack. Sixty percent of the 247 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 5: passing yards for Tarleton State happened on two plays and 248 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 5: Victor Gabalis was out of rhythm. 249 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 6: They had four sacks. 250 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 5: It was just a real impressive performance from Villanova in 251 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 5: the trenches to completely get Tarlton out of rhythm. You know, 252 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 5: they had a little luck at the end there where 253 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 5: the receiver caught the pass and couldn't get his foot down. 254 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 5: Just a wild ending to that one. I think both 255 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: these run defenses are going to show up here in 256 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 5: limit explosives. They'll be forgiving enough in the run defense 257 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 5: department to where these teams are going to continue to 258 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 5: want to run the ball. But I would not envision 259 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 5: that either offense has a ton of explosive rushing. And 260 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 5: I don't think that either one of these quarterbacks is 261 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 5: going to wow through the air. 262 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 8: Here. 263 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 5: Mcquaid's decent quarterback for Villanova, and they hit some pass 264 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 5: plays against Tarleton State. But I think Illinois State's coverage 265 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 5: unit will play a little better than what Tarlton State did. 266 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 6: I think it's an undergame here. 267 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 5: I think we'll find that Illinois State will really struggle 268 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 5: throwing the ball here. They've got a couple good explosive receivers, 269 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 5: but I don't imagine a lot of explosive plays here. 270 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 5: It'll be methodical defensive battle. I think the two buttoned 271 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 5: up defensive units will control the terms here in a 272 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 5: run heavy game. I like under fifty two and a half. 273 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 3: More on that later. Let's move on to the official 274 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 3: college football Playoff. 275 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:46,239 Speaker 9: It's the most wonderful time of the years Belby Tailgater hostings, 276 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 9: killed bosses for roastings with people you don't even know, 277 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 9: Melby hell Mary's stories and tells of the glories of 278 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 9: bowl games from long long ago. 279 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 6: It's the most time. 280 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 3: Let's start with Miami and Texas A and M. Texas 281 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 3: A and M three and a half point favorite at 282 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 3: DraftKings total down to forty eight and a half forty 283 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 3: eight at some places. This game will kick off at 284 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 3: noon Eastern on ABC in College Station. Texas talked about 285 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 3: this before home field in these first round games. Jacked 286 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 3: up saw that last year with all four teams winning 287 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 3: and covering. Texas A and M is one of the 288 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 3: best home field advantages in all of college football. I 289 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: you know, when I first look at this game, a 290 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 3: couple I guess I should. I'll go through the notes 291 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 3: for everything. Keante Scott, Miami's best corner, looks like he'll 292 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 3: be back, last played in Week eleven. He'll be important, 293 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 3: so he'll play in the slot a bunch, very versatile. 294 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 3: Tamari Brown probably their second best corner. He's questionable. I 295 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 3: think he'll play David Blay. Their nose tackles should be 296 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: good to go Oj Frederic, who was very good as 297 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 3: a freshman, not as good this year, but he'll be 298 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 3: back at owner. So Miami looks like they'll have their 299 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 3: full complement of defenders. Scott is the big name there 300 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 3: Texas A and M. Meanwhile, they could get Bryce Anderson. 301 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: They should get Bryce Anderson back at safety. He last 302 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 3: played in Week seven. Scooby Williams should be back. He 303 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 3: last played in Week nine. They might help a run 304 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: defense that has been a bit leaky at times. And 305 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 3: then we'll see if Levion Moss can go the Starbuck 306 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 3: for A and M who hasn't played since Week seven. 307 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: He's officially listed as questionable, so one of the reasons 308 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 3: why this One of the reasons this game has taken 309 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 3: some under money is because of the wind, which might 310 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 3: be impactful on Saturday. Let's see the updated forecast. I 311 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 3: mean you're looking at sustained as of right now, could 312 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 3: change fifteen to twenty miles per hour. That will definitely 313 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 3: have a bit of an impact on each passing attack. 314 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 3: Miami does a good job generally of preventing explosives. Play 315 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 3: a lot of too high thought Scott back in the slot. 316 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: This is a great trenches battle. By the way, elite 317 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 3: offensive line versus lead defensive line on both sides of 318 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 3: the ball, Which one of those which one of those 319 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: elite defensive ends can win Their one on ones that 320 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 3: make a splash play I think might end up deciding this. 321 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 3: A and M, on the other hand, their defense, great 322 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: defensive line. They've done a good job of preventing explosives 323 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 3: in the passing game. It's the running game where they 324 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: do give up too many explosives, but don't have to 325 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 3: worry about Carson Beck's legs here and Texas. A and 326 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 3: M does like to play a bit of man coverage 327 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 3: and Miami is not an explosive rushing offense. One of 328 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 3: the key, one of the keys to this game, which 329 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 3: I could be a differentiator, is the emergence of Pringle 330 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 3: at running back. Gerard Pringle, He's the freshman's gotten more 331 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 3: carries over the past few games and provided more of 332 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 3: an explosive element. Can he hit some explosives here against 333 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 3: an A and M defense that has been vulnerable in 334 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 3: that department? I mean, this is a guy he had 335 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 3: seventeen carries up until November fifteenth, and then he had 336 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 3: seventeen carries against NC State for one, sixteen, fourteen against 337 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 3: bot Tech, ten against Pitt So he's really coming on, 338 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 3: averaging over six yards per carry. Can he hit some explosives? 339 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 3: Might be worth a looking the prop market, maybe longest 340 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 3: rushover or something at a flat three. I'm in on 341 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 3: A and M at home. I think they find a way. 342 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 3: I also like the first half under and no Collin's 343 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 3: gonna tout that. I think both teams come out. I 344 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 3: think they're good matchups for both defenses. I think they're 345 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 3: gonna come out slow, run the ball, feel each other out. 346 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 3: Miami's generally conservative early on, and I just don't trust 347 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 3: them to fully exploit the Texas in and run defense issues, 348 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 3: and the Texan and run defense might be better with 349 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,199 Speaker 3: both Anderson and Williams back. If I don't get to 350 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 3: the window on and the wind, which I already mentioned, if 351 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: I don't get to the window on A and M pregame, 352 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 3: I will be looking for them live if they go 353 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 3: down in this game or they're down at the half. 354 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 3: A and Them has been a great second half team 355 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 3: all year. And who do you trust more to make it? 356 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 3: Usments Alco or Mario or I should say Mario? 357 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 7: Who with the says Mario, and. 358 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: It's Alco all day. And we've seen Mario below leads 359 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 3: with bad time management, bad game management, get way too 360 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 3: conservative so many times. So it would not shock me 361 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 3: in the least if A and M's down ten going 362 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 3: into the fourth and comes back to win this game. 363 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 3: So I will be looking at A and M live. 364 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 3: But did play the first half under? I think anything 365 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 3: better than twenty four or twenty four or above is fine. Colin, 366 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 3: you agree on the first half under? 367 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 6: Yeah? 368 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 8: Absolutely, first half under. 369 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 7: I think there's a lot of things that go into 370 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 7: this first off, almost of Jefferson pilot kickoff here in 371 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 7: the sec territory at eleven am. If it was eleven 372 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 7: forty five, it truly would be Jefferson pilot. 373 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 8: I think the. 374 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 7: Question is, does call and Kline try and get the 375 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 7: run game going because Le'Veon moss is back. Do we 376 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 7: defer not say I'm just going to start throwing the ball. 377 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 7: Maybe try to get a little ground game going in 378 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 7: the scripted portion, which could lead to it being a 379 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 7: lot slower. But the Miami defense is elite in the 380 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 7: first half. They are third in FBS defensive scoring. They 381 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 7: have allowed four point eight points in the first half 382 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 7: this season. That is insane. So I agree with you 383 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 7: that I think Texas A and wins this game. I 384 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 7: would only buy it at three. I don't expect them 385 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 7: to have They didn't have any points in the first 386 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 7: quarter against Texas. They only had a field goal in 387 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 7: the first half against South Carolina. They've been starting off slow. 388 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 7: The Miami defense has been crazy good in the first half, 389 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 7: so I think Texas A NAM. 390 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 8: Is going to have to come back in the second half. 391 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 7: I think that they can because if you look at 392 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 7: the slot position, that is the biggest area where Miami 393 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 7: is going to struggle. So let me say this I 394 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 7: am going I already have a fifty to one on 395 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 7: Texa anam to win the national title, first bet I 396 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 7: made after the national title last year. I am probably 397 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 7: going to get a little unit down in Miami. But 398 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 7: I think Texa and wins this game. For this very reason, 399 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 7: Kyante Scott is one of the names listed on Stuckie's 400 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 7: opt out injury all that that is a huge loss here. 401 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 7: Because Mario Krag lines up, Kiantey Scott is back, it's. 402 00:19:59,600 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 3: Good to go. 403 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 8: Getting already gets there. Okay, we'll see. 404 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 6: That's huge in the slot. 405 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 3: That's one of the reasons I like the under as well, because. 406 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 8: Bryce Fitzgerald was not getting it done there. 407 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 3: Now freshman, he's been bad, right. 408 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 7: So domination in the slot is really what's going to 409 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 7: get it done here. But again, I think it's slow 410 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 7: going first half under. I think Texas A and roars back 411 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 7: at the end. 412 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 6: No, I think Scott. 413 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 3: Getting Scott back in the slot, particularly for this matchup, 414 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 3: is enormous because the freshman was going to get torched. 415 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 3: It was one of the things that I was watching 416 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 3: before I placed that first half under bet. 417 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 8: Like Calary Williams, I was gonna say it is Pitts 418 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 8: Rafael Williams. 419 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 6: He's their slot. 420 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 7: He went crazy, like all five targets caught, all five 421 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 7: had explosives mixed in like Kante Scott. That's that's the 422 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 7: player to watch on the Miami defense. 423 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 3: Yep. Yeah, he's their best corner by far. Calvary's you 424 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 3: like you like Tony to get in the end zone. 425 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 6: I do. 426 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 4: It's you know, minus one ten, minus one twenty out 427 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 4: in the market. The kid is the whole Caines offense 428 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 4: really the last few games, you know, in the last 429 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 4: three in particular, he scored in each of them. 430 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 3: He had four total touchdowns. 431 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 4: Thirty one total targets, plus they also got him involved 432 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 4: in the run game, which when you talk about this win, 433 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 4: it's important. He had eight additional carries in those two 434 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 4: games because when you look at it, they're. 435 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 3: Gonna get out at it returns and the quick game 436 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 3: is so critical. 437 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 4: The bubble, the tunnel screens, they're gonna put him at 438 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 4: wildcat quarterback, lots of different touches. So I just see 439 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 4: this as an opportunity for him to get in even 440 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 4: if the wind is problematic. For an he throws fifteen 441 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 4: yards down the field or more a lot of his 442 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 4: big throws. 443 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 3: You look back at that game. 444 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 4: Against Florida State earlier in the season, hit him on 445 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 4: a quick slant and then all of a sudden, he 446 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 4: breaks one tackle and he's to the house. So if 447 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 4: Miami has any chance to win this game, I think 448 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 4: he's got across the end zone. And essentially they've just 449 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 4: been feeding him NonStop against ranked teams this year. When 450 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 4: you look at their opportunities to impress the Committee, he's 451 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 4: been the focal point. So I think this is going 452 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 4: to be another showcase game for him. And if they 453 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 4: get shut down, then you know, the Canes just aren't competitive. 454 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 4: But I think they'll go down swinging with their best 455 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 4: player gone. 456 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 3: I'm putting Miami first half under on our agree board. 457 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, already have ou on that down to twenty 458 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 7: four too. I don't know what number, rabbit, I mean, 459 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 7: I got it, like twenty four better? Fine, yeah, twenty 460 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 7: four better? 461 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 3: Uh Doc, nothing here for you, I mean, just real quick. 462 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 5: I do like the way that Miami has played the 463 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 5: last month of the season, and now they get a 464 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 5: new lease on life getting into the playoff, and so 465 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 5: could start strong here for Miami with that that defense 466 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 5: is nasty and showing up. I would expect here two 467 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 5: point nine yards per carry on the ground eighth nationally, 468 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 5: and defensive success R eight twentieth and preventing explosives eighth 469 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 5: in red zone efficiency. I do think that Miami defense 470 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 5: will show up here ready to go. And you hashed 471 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 5: out some of the A and M run defense numbers. 472 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 5: I do think that Miami does line up and try 473 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 5: and run the ball here. So first half under position 474 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 5: I would definitely support. It's kind of one of those 475 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 5: old two thousand and seven style handicaps where you get 476 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 5: that twenty four and a half, you go first half under, 477 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 5: So I do like that. 478 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I imagine this probably closes twenty three and a half. 479 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 2: If you hate ballgames, go listen to ntr'll talk. 480 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 3: To Lane all mess that's in the afternoon, two Lane. 481 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 3: This is a rematch from a game earlier this year, 482 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 3: oll miss, but I think it was a third close 483 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 3: to thirteen and a half point favorite and dominated. They 484 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 3: won forty five to ten at home. Now they are 485 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 3: a seventeen and a half point favor total fifty six 486 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:19,479 Speaker 3: and a half. Bryce Bohannon tu Lane receivers doubtfully at 487 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 3: thirty one catches for four hundred and seventeen yards cornerback 488 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 3: for ole Miss. Antonio Kai will see if he can go. 489 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 3: He's questionable. A lot of coaching news in this John 490 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 3: summerl took the Florida job, but he'll stay with the team. 491 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 3: But I'll distract it. Has he been hard to say? 492 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: I think he like tweeted out that he has like 493 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 3: two jobs, and then Lane Kiffin took the LSU job. 494 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 3: He will not be with the team. Defensive coordinator Pete 495 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 3: Golding has taken over as the new head coach. Offensive 496 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 3: coordinator Charlie Wise Junior will stay with the team. So 497 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 3: I played ole Miss, I needa seventeen or better, but 498 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 3: I made it eighteen and a half. I played some seventeen. 499 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 6: The strongest. 500 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 3: Like if you look at Tulane, like the first meeting, 501 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 3: I mean rest left got benched. I mean, what did 502 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 3: you start off? Ozho of ten and he was just dreadful. 503 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 3: Tu Lane's defense is not good. The strongest part of 504 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 3: their defense is their pass rush and their defensive line. 505 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 3: They can get after the quarterback, but Chambliss never take 506 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: sacks and he's like unpressurable. So I just don't know 507 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 3: how the Tulane back end is going to hold up. 508 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 3: I also imagine, like this is just number one, it's 509 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 3: a home home playoff game. The crowd's going to be 510 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,479 Speaker 3: jack up the home field advantage, and this is like 511 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 3: a prove it like the lane Kiffin left, like hold 512 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 3: up a middle finger to Lane, like you're gonna get 513 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 3: some new wrinkles here from the offense. And I think 514 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 3: TWU lanes in a world have hurt. I mean, I 515 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 3: really wish that it was USF for North Texas, which 516 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 3: I think we're better overall teams from the American but 517 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,439 Speaker 3: here we are too. Lane. You got to give credit 518 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 3: to some wrong company. But you know, I mean tu lane, 519 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 3: you want to run the ball on O miss. Their 520 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 3: run defenses worse than their A state. They don't get 521 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 3: an elite pressure. But I just don't think that rets 522 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 3: Laf is going to pick them apart. And Tulane's running 523 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 3: game unless rets Laf just goes wild here, I don't 524 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 3: see them being anything special. I mean I will say 525 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 3: that what's his name has come on a bit. McClure, 526 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 3: the running back for Tulane. He's given them some juice. 527 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 3: I mean, he only got three carries in the first meeting, 528 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 3: he like Pringle, has really come on of late. I 529 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: mean he only had what eight carries prior to November fifteenth, 530 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 3: and he had ten for ninety four against fau seven 531 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 3: for one to twenty two against Temple, eleven for sixty 532 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 3: nine against Charlotte. Now, again these are poverty teams. But 533 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,719 Speaker 3: then he had twenty two for one to twenty one 534 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 3: against North Texas, so maybe he gives them a little 535 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 3: bit more juice in the run game. But uh yeah, 536 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 3: I like a little worried about like all this G 537 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 3: five narrative talk, and but I think this is a 538 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 3: good spot for Ole Miss here. 539 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 6: So I laid it. 540 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 3: I took seventeen meet seventeen or better make it eighteen 541 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 3: and a half. Nothing, not a huge bet, but I 542 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 3: like Ole Mess Colin you agree. 543 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 7: Yeah, this isn't the G five team you want to back. 544 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 7: It wasn't close the first time, It's not going to 545 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 7: be close this time. There is no shortage of motivation 546 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 7: on the old Miss side. I know it's like impossible 547 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 7: to handicap motivation for Bowl games, but you know, if 548 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 7: you go on history of home games, you would think 549 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 7: that the home team would have more of an advantage, 550 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 7: maybe that we know we'll get more samples to what 551 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 7: we had last year. But these players calling out Lane 552 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 7: Kiffin on Twitter on social media, like Lane Kiffin putting 553 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 7: out a statement that he was wanting to stick around 554 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 7: and coach the team through the playoff and the players 555 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 7: wanted me there, and then the starting centers like, no, 556 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 7: you better check that. Sunshine Perkins like no, we didn't. 557 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 7: That's not really what happened. 558 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 6: In the room. 559 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 7: These players are pissed, and I think they got something 560 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 7: to say. And I feel as if they get this 561 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 7: one game burst of emotions at home from the greatest 562 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 7: season in Mississippi college football history, and they're gonna move 563 00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 7: on to the Courter finals and lay a dud. But 564 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 7: right here they're absolutely going to nail two Lane to 565 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 7: the wall again. And Trinidad Chambliss is one of the 566 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 7: most mistake free quarterbacks in college football. It's insane what 567 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 7: this Fair State kid has been able to do. Turnover 568 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 7: worthy play rate of one point eight percent this season 569 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 7: in three hundred and sixty five dropbacks. You can't rattle 570 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 7: the kid. It's quite amazing. Kawan Lacy like, what is 571 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 7: too gonna be able to tackle this guy there, one 572 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 7: hundred and thirty I think, and broken tackles allowed. He's 573 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 7: forced eighty nine miss tackles. That's like second behind Cam 574 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 7: Cook of anybody in FBS football. He averages three point 575 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 7: three yards after first contact. At least thirty three of 576 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 7: his runs have gone for double digits. I don't see 577 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 7: two Lane stopping that. I don't see anything different than 578 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 7: what happened in this first game than what's gonna happen now. 579 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 7: And in that first game, Ole Miss had at least 580 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,439 Speaker 7: two first downs on eight of eleven drives. 581 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 8: Same thing's happening here. This is not the G five 582 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 8: team you want to back Dock. 583 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 3: You're on board, Yeah, I am on board. 584 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 5: I mean I think you look at the path to 585 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 5: Tulane and having success moving the ball and scoring touchdowns here. 586 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 6: I just don't see it. 587 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 5: Two hundred and eighty two yards in the first meeting, 588 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 5: four point one yards per play, Retz laugh. In that 589 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 5: first meeting, five out of seventeen fifty six passing yards, 590 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 5: the lone touchdown for two Lane came in complete garbage time. 591 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 5: The score was forty five to three. They were playing 592 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 5: out the last four minutes and two Lane punched one 593 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 5: and at the end, I think for ole Miss, having 594 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 5: some continuity with the DC sticking around and coaching that 595 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 5: unit will really pay off with them being able to 596 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 5: just step up and limit what Tu Lane wants to 597 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 5: do here. I also think that we could see two 598 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 5: lane in situations where they have to be aggressive on 599 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 5: fourth down. They can't settle for field goals. They know 600 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 5: they're going to have to score points to stay in 601 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 5: this one. Man, I don't think it's going to go 602 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 5: very well. I look at the first meeting in that 603 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 5: September game, which was a kind of a bad spot 604 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 5: for ole Miss. They were in an SEC schedule sandwich spot, 605 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 5: and two lane really got up for that game and 606 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 5: Tu Lane was out gained by three hundred yards. They 607 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 5: have routinely this season benefited from turnover voodoo. Five to 608 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 5: zero against North tex There was crazy since. 609 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 3: They got waxed by UTSA. Over the final five games 610 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: of the year, they're plus ten of a plus ten 611 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 3: turnover margin. 612 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, unsustainable, unable to be predicted, but likely not to 613 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 5: happen here. I mean, you can make an argument that 614 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 5: there was performances all season. They should have lost East Alabama. 615 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 3: They should have lost. 616 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 5: South Alabama just not a team that I think is 617 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 5: going to be able to have it in the trenches, 618 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 5: to be able to stay within shouting distance here. I 619 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 5: really don't want to overthink this one. This is a 620 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 5: really good spot for Old Miss to kind of put 621 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 5: it on this team, lay it even seventeen and a half. 622 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 6: I'm fine. 623 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 5: And I do also like Twu Lane's team total under 624 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 5: twenty and a half. 625 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 3: And Calvary's you're gonna make this and fully agree and 626 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 3: you're going with an all. 627 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm going with an alt. 628 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 4: I agree with everything that you guys are saying. I 629 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 4: think this is a statement game for them if there 630 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 4: ever was when the place is going to be an 631 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 4: absolute zoo in Oxford late twenty seven and a half 632 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 4: on the olt line plus two to sixty on return, 633 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 4: and just reiterate a few things real quick. Tulane got 634 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 4: smashed in the first meeting because they couldn't throw it 635 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 4: and they couldn't get a stop to save their life. Well, 636 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 4: where all of a sudden and either of those things 637 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 4: is going to be fixed in this game. I think 638 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 4: that redslaf when you look at it, you know, the 639 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 4: best defense that he really faced down the stretch was 640 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 4: East Carolina. They were what fifty fourth in S and 641 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 4: p SP plus defense and they barely pulled that one 642 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 4: out of the fire. 643 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 3: Twenty six nineteen. 644 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: They had to settled for four field goals in that game, 645 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 4: three in the red zone, and that's been a bugaboo 646 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 4: for TWU Lane the entire season. They finished ninety ninth 647 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 4: in red zone touchdown percentage. If you want to pull 648 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 4: an upset, you can't settle for field goals just to 649 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 4: kind of hang around. You got to score and score 650 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 4: a lot. Because Shambliss, I don't understand really how he's 651 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 4: flown this far under the radar nationally in terms of 652 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 4: the respect. I know that awards season he wasn't going 653 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 4: to be a Heisman finalist, but if you look at 654 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 4: his ten games that he started and then extrapolated that, 655 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 4: so if he had started all twelve, he would have 656 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 4: had just about thirty total touchdowns over forty two hundred 657 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 4: total yards of offense. 658 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 3: This game is an absolute monster. I'm not sure if 659 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 3: it was Stuck or Colin who said it. 660 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 4: You can't pressure, you can't get to him because not 661 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 4: only is he mobile, but also they have so much 662 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 4: in the quick game that is able to get him 663 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 4: out of trouble. You look at his A dot, it's, 664 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,959 Speaker 4: you know, about eight and a half, not top sixty 665 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,479 Speaker 4: in the entire country, which sometimes you call upon that 666 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 4: as a bit of a downgrade. I look at as 667 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 4: a way of saying that it's highly unlikely they're going 668 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 4: to rattle him into a turnover worthy play. And once 669 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 4: Tulane is down two scores and it's just on rets 670 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 4: laps shoulders, I see a disaster breaking out for them. 671 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 4: I think this is going to be a repeat of 672 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 4: the first game where ole Miss won by thirty five, 673 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 4: but they could have won by as many points as 674 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 4: they wanted. I think this is a case where they 675 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 4: want to show middle finger to Lane Kiffen out there. 676 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 4: You know in ban Rouge, we're gonna win this one 677 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 4: by fifty. We didn't need you in the first place. 678 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 7: Way, let's say this, if you think that they smoke 679 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,479 Speaker 7: in this game, like just smoke tou Lane, and then 680 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 7: you think Ole Miss lays a dud a day before 681 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 7: the portal opens, like that's even more like Stucky nine 682 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 7: on that recap show Wanted Georgia Futures. This line's up 683 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 7: in the Georgia playoff bracket. I'm telling you, if you 684 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 7: haven't got a Georgia future in your back pocket, it 685 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 7: looks like a clear semi final path. If you guys 686 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 7: agree that you think they play a dut the day 687 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 7: before the portal opens. 688 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 3: Up, I will say, the one thing that I'm really 689 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 3: interested in look seeing is Kiffin was known as being 690 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 3: like super aggressive on fourth downs and just like daff 691 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 3: ef It, go for it a lot. I'm curious to 692 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 3: see what Golding does on fourth downs and what the 693 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 3: fourth down aggressiveness is. 694 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 2: And good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Keith Jackson. I'll 695 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 2: be calling the play at today's ball game. We have 696 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 2: an afternoon of what college football is all about. It's 697 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 2: the kind of a week that you could really get 698 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 2: yourself a set of white knuckles if you were a 699 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 2: partisan to either one of these teams, because the fever, 700 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 2: if you will, is so fervent it's almost impossible to measure. 701 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 3: All right, let's move on to the third and final 702 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 3: college twelveloff game on Saturday between James Madison and Oregon. 703 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 3: Organ is a twenty one point favorite, total down to 704 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 3: forty seven and a half, which makes me sad because 705 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 3: I didn't get the bet all the unders that I 706 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 3: wanted to. I kind of still like this under No, 707 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 3: it's going past fifty and forty eight, but the way 708 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 3: that so when I look at this game, I think 709 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 3: that I do think that Jamius defense is legit. You 710 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 3: can adjust for opponent. I think this is like a 711 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 3: top twenty, top fifteen type of defense. They'll get a 712 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 3: manual bush back. It does remain we don't know yet 713 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 3: on Oregon's receivers. Stewart has been out all year, but 714 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 3: he was practicing. To Corey and Moore, he's been out. 715 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 3: He was practicing. Yeah, Gary Bryant, he's been out, he's practicing. 716 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. Oregon has a big game next week, 717 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 3: assuming they win, so maybe they hold them back. I 718 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 3: don't know, But if the receivers aren't back, they probably 719 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 3: still lean into like their tight ends and their run game. 720 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 3: I think the Jamu defense can have a respectable enough 721 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 3: effort here. What will probably happen is Oregon will hit 722 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 3: a couple of explosives and that'll be the difference. I mean, 723 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 3: you go back to that Louisville game, because Jami played 724 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 3: a really easy schedule. But against at Louisville, they they 725 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 3: were up fourteen to six at the end of the 726 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 3: third quarter. Chris Bell, who's going to be a first 727 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:05,239 Speaker 3: round draft pick, he hit a long Moss hit him 728 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 3: for a long touchdown. Then Louisville spuit a defensive touchdown, 729 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 3: and then I think Isaac Browns. Browns like one of 730 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 3: the house, Yeah, took one of the house is also 731 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 3: going to play in the NFL, So that's probably what will happen. 732 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 3: Like Oregon will score like a couple of touchdowns on 733 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 3: on long explosives at some point. But I think the 734 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 3: James Madison defense can battle enough, and then on offense 735 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 3: they're gonna go. They're already super slow. I imagine they're going 736 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,399 Speaker 3: to go super strong trying to condense this game down. 737 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 3: I don't think Oregon's gonna go super fast. So even 738 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 3: at forty seven and a half, I think under is 739 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 3: the look Mike, you are wearing James Madison sweater Christmas 740 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 3: sweater or is it a sweatshirt or a sweater? No, 741 00:34:54,880 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 3: Christmas sweater, yeah, Christmas sweater. Jmu. Do they stay within 742 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 3: the number? 743 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 6: I think they do. 744 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 3: I'm taking the twenty one and a half. 745 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 4: I think it's pretty simple when you look at Oregon's 746 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 4: post mortem, at least against the spread, they were eight 747 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 4: and four against the closing number in their eight covers, 748 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 4: two hundred and thirty seven and a half yards per game 749 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 4: on the ground six point one yards per clip. In 750 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 4: their four losses, that trapped down to one hundred and 751 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 4: eighty yards per game and a full yard lower in 752 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 4: terms of the yards per carry average. 753 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 6: And James Madison. 754 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 4: Probably is the best run defense that's ever come from 755 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 4: the G five level. The Dukes allow less than eight 756 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 4: feet per carry and just seventy six point two yards 757 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 4: per game on the ground, So if they're going to 758 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 4: force Oregon, you know, off of their absolute strength. I 759 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 4: understand that they have monsters in the trench. They have 760 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 4: blue chip kids all over the place. But Louisville was 761 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 4: top fifteen in rushing success rate over the course of 762 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 4: the season, and in that particular game, Isaac Brown was 763 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 4: healthy and he was playing. They were a different team 764 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 4: when he was banged up at separate parts of the season. 765 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 3: They held them. 766 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 4: Below four yards per carry in that game. I also 767 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 4: look at it in terms of, you know, Chesney and 768 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 4: his success punching up of talking to Duck before the recording. 769 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 4: If you go back to his Holy Cross days and 770 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 4: you also look at the Power four teams that he's 771 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 4: coached against at James Madison, there's six games across the 772 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 4: last four years, five and one against the spread. His 773 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 4: only time he didn't cover was against South Dakota State, 774 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 4: who won the national championship. At the FCS level, they're 775 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 4: catching sixteen or seventeen in that game they lost by 776 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 4: twenty one. 777 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 3: A game that Duck pointed out, they were really in it. 778 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 4: The box score didn't, you know, and the final score 779 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 4: didn't indicate how close that game was in terms of 780 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 4: punching up. The guy always has his people prepared, and 781 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 4: I agree in terms of the pace and the brand 782 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 4: of football they want to play. They finished one hundred 783 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 4: and twenty second in seconds between plays this season, and 784 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 4: they finished third in time of possession percentage. So if 785 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 4: they want to shrink this game down and their run 786 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 4: defense comes to play and they get a couple opportunities 787 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 4: to get off the field and get some punts, I 788 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 4: think twenty one and a half is too rich. I mean, 789 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 4: there's other things to consider, but really it comes down 790 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 4: to me the run defense Chesney's history. He's forty seven 791 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 4: and eleven straight up in his last fifty eight games, 792 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 4: and those eleven losses he lost by an average of 793 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 4: eight point three points per game. The guy just doesn't 794 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 4: get blown out very often. I understand everyone's trying to 795 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 4: make this narrative, including Nick Saban about an hour ago. 796 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 4: It's Triple A Baseball trying to play for the World Series. 797 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 4: Somehow Utah beat you Nick in the two thousand and 798 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 4: eight Sugar Bowl. I know that every single loss for 799 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 4: a Power four team is all we didn't care, we 800 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 4: didn't play hard enough. This is James Madison Super Bowl. 801 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 4: You're clearly going to get maximum effort. 802 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 3: Their fans are traveling out to the Pacific Northwest. 803 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 4: I think there's a lot to like in terms of 804 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 4: a dog that plays defense and can run. I need 805 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 4: Wayne Knight to do something special in this game. 806 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 3: I agree. I think the game flow in the narrative, 807 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 3: Oregon's going to land some haymakers. 808 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 4: They're going to have a couple of plays of forty 809 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,439 Speaker 4: plus and maybe take it to the house. But wayn 810 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 4: Knight's a pretty good running back, so I think if 811 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 4: they can do something schematically a lot of sun Belt play. 812 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 3: Duck can attest to this. 813 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 4: Down the stretch, they were not in their bag. They 814 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 4: were playing a lot of vanilla football. Weren't putting a 815 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 4: ton on taking knees and taking these I mean, to 816 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 4: your you know, chagrin. This is a team that I think, 817 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 4: potentially and you saw in the Louisville game they had 818 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 4: what was a double reverse pass on the first drive 819 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 4: that got dropped. I think they're gonna pull off the 820 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,720 Speaker 4: stops a little bit allah the you know Boise States 821 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 4: to the world when they're punching up against Oklahoma and 822 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 4: the Festa bal like, this is their opportunity. I think 823 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 4: Chesney's the right coach. I think he's going to go 824 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 4: for it here. So twenty one and a half is 825 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 4: over that key number. 826 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 3: I'll take the points with the Dukes. Yeah. One of 827 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 3: the other reasons I like the under that I failed 828 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 3: to mention because I do think they're going to have 829 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 3: to try to get tricky. Is my biggest concern for 830 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 3: Jamie because I think the defense can hang around on 831 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 3: a down to down basis is the offensive the line 832 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 3: might just get destroyed. Like that's my biggest worry against 833 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 3: the Oregon front like this is That's where I think 834 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 3: you're going to see like the biggest difference from when 835 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 3: you're just watching it like visually, if you knew nothing 836 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 3: about these teams, I think that they're not gonna get 837 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 3: any queshs. Like Louisville also has an elite defensive line, 838 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 3: and Jamie couldn't run the ball. Yeah, I mean it 839 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 3: was just Sluka like QB power for like three yards 840 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:05,879 Speaker 3: at a time, but their running backs had no room 841 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 3: and they couldn't block Louisville. That's my biggest concern with 842 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 3: the JMU offense. But I do think this will be 843 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 3: lower scoring, which does lend itself to you know, a 844 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 3: dog catching three touchdowns plus. And I don't think Oregon 845 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 3: has the incentive to run this up, right, Like if 846 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 3: they win, then you have a big game next week. 847 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 3: And if there's also like these their coordinators have taken 848 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 3: other jobs, Organs, they're staying with the team, but they're 849 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 3: definitely doing other work. So if you're thinking about this, 850 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 3: if you're like balancing, all right, my other jobs, JMU, 851 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 3: but next week Texas Tech, like you're probably you got 852 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 3: to allocate all those resources. You're probably not gonna have 853 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 3: the most ideal creative game plan here from both coordinators. 854 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 3: A little narrative street, but duck, what are you saying? 855 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean there's no doubt those coordinators are exerting 856 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 5: some amount of bandwidth to their new gigs, So there 857 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:06,399 Speaker 5: is something there. 858 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 6: And maybe next week too, and maybe next week too. 859 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's just deeper and deeper as they 860 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 5: get into this. It could be more and more tricky 861 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 5: for those two to try to have to be fully 862 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 5: locked in here on this playoff run. I took James 863 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 5: Madison plus twenty one and a half. I think if 864 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,240 Speaker 5: these guys score at least two touchdowns, they cover this number. 865 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:28,240 Speaker 5: In no way whatsoever is this going to be easy Oregon. 866 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 5: I went back and watched the Louisville tape and I 867 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 5: looked at it from the all twenty two angles, so 868 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,240 Speaker 5: you could really look at the trench play and Oregon 869 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 5: is going to get pressure with four down alignment. Barnett 870 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,879 Speaker 5: is going to have to get rid of the ball 871 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 5: quickly in standard passing down situations. They didn't really call 872 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 5: the game that way against Louisville, but I think maybe 873 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 5: we'll see the pass play selection from the call sheet 874 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 5: be such to where James Madison can get the ball 875 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 5: out of his hands quickly. 876 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:54,959 Speaker 6: Knowing they're not going to have a lot of time. 877 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 5: They've got to run some counter, they got to go 878 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 5: QB power, a little zone read, and they're going to 879 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,359 Speaker 5: have to win the war in the trenches on some 880 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,439 Speaker 5: of those plays and just achieve three yards on first down, 881 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 5: because if you're in second and long, third and long, 882 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 5: you're playing right into Oregon's hands and it could really 883 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 5: get jerky for JMU. I think we're gonna have to 884 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 5: see the Dukes pull plays out of the back of 885 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 5: the playbook and run something well. 886 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 6: I mean I made mention of that too. 887 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,439 Speaker 5: I think he's only played fifty five snaps the last 888 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 5: nine weeks, but I think we have to see some 889 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 5: thirty one personnel out of the pistol. Maybe we see 890 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 5: some Barnett and Sluka on the field. At the same time, 891 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 5: they ran their very first offensive play against Louisville. They 892 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 5: ran a double pass where they threw us a screen 893 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 5: out to the far side to the receiver and all 894 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 5: he had to do was put it on the guy 895 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 5: across the middle and he was wide open for a 896 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 5: walk in touchdown and they couldn't make the play. They're 897 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 5: gonna have to do something like that to get one 898 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 5: past the goalie. Maybe take the crowd out of it 899 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 5: a bit. Maybe they go ahead early and they can 900 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 5: kind of just try to hang in there. But it's 901 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 5: clearly gonna be truncate the possession count. 902 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 6: Play very very slow. Oh. 903 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 5: I do think that the defense is talented enough to 904 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 5: at least provide some resistance to Oregon. This is not 905 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 5: gonna be Oregon just lining up and rolling through these 906 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 5: guys and scoring fifty two halfway through the third quarter 907 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 5: and everyone's laughing like they were when they played Liberty 908 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 5: in the in the Bowl Game a couple of years back. 909 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 5: I do not think that'll be this. But you've got 910 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 5: to win the war in the trenches a little bit, 911 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 5: even though you are inferior, inferiorly talented. And then you 912 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 5: know what if they if they can just limit at 913 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 5: Oregon's explosivity in the past game and on the outside 914 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 5: with their weapons, if they can limit some of that, 915 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 5: I'd say three or four explosive players are less. 916 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 6: Yeah. 917 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 5: JMU is gonna show up defensively in the trenches, and 918 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 5: I think they can compete here with what Oregon wants 919 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,399 Speaker 5: to do offensively. So you add all that up. There's 920 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 5: no style points here. You don't need to blow this 921 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 5: team out if you're Oregon. You just need to get 922 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,839 Speaker 5: the clock to zeros into the fourth quarter and get 923 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 5: the hell out of there. I think James Madison can 924 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 5: keep this one with it. It's an important hook. 925 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 6: But twenty one and a half. I like Jamie. 926 00:42:58,400 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 3: A lot of the G five faders. 927 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,800 Speaker 4: They don't want to but how much better is Iowa 928 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 4: than James Madison? Now they would say, like, oh, it's 929 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,839 Speaker 4: apples and oranges. They're not even on the same playing field. 930 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 4: It's like Oregon needed what a field goal in the 931 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 4: last minute to beat Iowa. They went to ot with 932 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 4: Penn State Wisconsin. They played with their food. I know 933 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 4: it was raining, and there's. 934 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 3: Lots of excuses. 935 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 4: There's lots of ways to kind of like tilt the 936 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 4: conversation anyway that you want. I just think it comes 937 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 4: down to do you believe that this James Madison team 938 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 4: with a historically good run defense and they generate so 939 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 4: many negative plays. They live in your backfield. They put 940 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 4: you behind the sticks in the run game. So looking 941 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 4: at that, I guess it's just a question of do 942 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 4: you think because they don't have the. 943 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 3: Blue chips, so they have what three four stars on 944 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:39,240 Speaker 3: the entire roster. 945 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 4: If that's only how you handicap, or that's only how 946 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 4: you preview football, then yeah, this will be a sixty 947 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 4: to three game. 948 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 3: And that's what some people are going with. 949 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 4: I think I just get a little prickly about it 950 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 4: because I think the reality is, if you watch James 951 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 4: Madison play, they're kind of an ideal team to muck 952 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 4: this game up and turn it into a rock fight. 953 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 4: They just need to get lucky a few times in 954 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 4: the pass game and extend some drives. Instead of them 955 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 4: being three and outs, their seven or eight play drives 956 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 4: that eat up the clock. 957 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 3: Sneaky key for J and U. These big dogs that 958 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 3: are overmatch from a Tannel perspective on the road in 959 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 3: high leverage games, in like a game where they would 960 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 3: just want to ugly it up and limit possessions. Patrick 961 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 3: Graya their OSSI punter. I'm telling you, I've seen so 962 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 3: many dogs just die because in these spots, like the punter, 963 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 3: we'll just chank one. They get one block if they're 964 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 3: getting dominated up front, like he's gotta be good. He's 965 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 3: very inconsistent. He's gotta have a good day because they 966 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 3: got they got a field position is gonna be important. 967 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 3: He can't get one block, he can't get nervous and 968 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,879 Speaker 3: shank one when they're punting from the fifteen and only 969 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:50,399 Speaker 3: goes twenty one yards. So watch the JAMU punter. Gonna 970 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,720 Speaker 3: need a big day from Colin. You got an anytime touchdown? 971 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 8: That yere? Yeah? 972 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 7: But I mean I do like James Madison, so I 973 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 7: echo everything everybody's saying, but I kind of see this 974 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,760 Speaker 7: game a little bit differently. Yesterday the event ability report 975 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 7: came out and Decoryan Moore, Gary Bryant, Evan Stewart are. 976 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 8: Listed as questionable. Two of those names. 977 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 7: I'm not surprised they were listed question but Dacoryan Moore 978 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 7: being listed his question, how long is this guy going 979 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 7: to be listed that way and not playing these games? 980 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 7: And so I start going through my brain and I 981 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 7: already kind of like James Madis because I make this 982 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 7: game like fifteen, and I think if you can get 983 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,359 Speaker 7: twenty one and a half, then the game's probably going 984 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 7: to be at thirty five to seven and you're going 985 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 7: to need that hook. 986 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,359 Speaker 8: This feels back door all the way. 987 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,279 Speaker 7: But in the back of my mind when I saw 988 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 7: that availability report, I thought to myself, is this the 989 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 7: same Morgan team that showed up in the Rose Bowl 990 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 7: and got their ass kicked by an offensive attack that 991 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 7: they weren't expecting whatsoever? Did Dan Lanning take a page 992 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 7: from that? And is he going to sit all of 993 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 7: his wide receivers it doesn't even matter if they've only 994 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 7: got three healthy ones in the entire roster. Are they 995 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 7: going to go straight Jordan Davison and Noah Winnington in 996 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 7: this game and say I can build a two possession 997 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,720 Speaker 7: lead with my running backs, I won't expose one single 998 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,879 Speaker 7: thing with Decoryan Moore, Gary Bryant, and Evan Stewart, two 999 00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 7: of those names on there, like Dacry Moore hasn't played 1000 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 7: like what in a month and Evan Stewart like the 1001 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 7: full boat of playbook you're not going to put out 1002 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 7: against the James Madison defense. So in my opinion, I 1003 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 7: feel like Dan Lanning is gonna make this game as 1004 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 7: vanilla as possible and James Madison's abstually gonna cover once 1005 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 7: they get a two possion lead. 1006 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 8: I think We're just going to sit on the ball now. 1007 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 7: As far as the Dukes go with the prop Listen, 1008 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 7: they run the ball sixty three percent of the time. 1009 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 7: And you're gonna hear a lot about Wayne Night and 1010 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 7: he deserves to be talked about a lot. Three point 1011 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 7: eight yards after first contact. He forced forty three missed 1012 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 7: tackles this season. But this isn't the top scoring option 1013 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,759 Speaker 7: on the team. The quarterback a Lonza Barnett, the third 1014 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 7: he is the top scoring option at Night has nine 1015 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 7: rushing tg tds. Barnett has fourteen next to his twenty 1016 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 7: one passing tds. The Oregon defense produces a negative play 1017 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 7: against inside zone on one of twenty attempts. They are 1018 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 7: never behind the line of scrimmage against teams that run 1019 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 7: inside zone. Ask Iowa right, So Oregon is seventy seventh 1020 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 7: in defensive finishing drives. Can you believe there are one 1021 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 7: hundred and twenty six and opponent red zone score? If 1022 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,320 Speaker 7: James Madison can simply get to the forty, they're probably 1023 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 7: in line for a touchdown. Barnett is the name who's 1024 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 7: who's gonna get called on the ground. I like a 1025 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 7: lots of Barnett. 1026 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:09,800 Speaker 8: The third. 1027 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,839 Speaker 7: Anytime touchdown is plus two ten, they're gonna get one, 1028 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:13,760 Speaker 7: maybe two tds. 1029 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 8: And it should be. 1030 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 4: Barnett to tag onto that Colin you saw because he 1031 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 4: came off of an injury. Where really back in August, 1032 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 4: we were like, it's gonna be Sluke's job in all 1033 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 4: likelihood he ends up starting. He didn't really have the 1034 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 4: full confidence to cut and to move the way that 1035 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 4: makes him a special quarterback until the second half of 1036 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 4: the season, and then the rushing touchdowns started to pile up, So. 1037 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 3: I like that look a lot. 1038 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 7: Did Sluker get paid for the playoff though? Did we 1039 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:41,760 Speaker 7: check to see if his agent got involved that they zeld. 1040 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,640 Speaker 3: It to his Well foot Well's Faro account, putting Jamu 1041 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:49,359 Speaker 3: on the agree for the podcast preview for our group, 1042 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 3: I make this nineteen point seven for what it's worth, 1043 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 3: all right, those are the three college football first round 1044 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 3: matchups on Saturday, and if you need a way to 1045 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 3: watch them, let me tell you about Sling TV.

Pat news here pretty critical. 1074 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 3: So Utah State. I don't know if there's gonna be 1075 00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 3: more names, but their best receiver, first team All Mountain 1076 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 3: West Pagan, he will not play. That's big Washington State. 1077 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 3: They have a bunch of guys in the portal. Their 1078 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 3: cornerback Kenny Worthy, He's not going to play, but all 1079 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,320 Speaker 3: the other guys are, I think, are going to play. 1080 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 3: And this is like pretty nuanced, but this is one 1081 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 3: of the if you follow my file, you would know this. 1082 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 3: And so Jimmy Rodgers originally for Washington State, and then 1083 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 3: the Washington State staff last year didn't don't didn't let 1084 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 3: players in the portal play. So I originally played Utah 1085 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 3: State knowing this, and I knew that there were opt 1086 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,879 Speaker 3: outs coming, so I played Utah State money line when 1087 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 3: this line first came out. Then Jimmy Rodgers leaves and 1088 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 3: he takes the head coaching job at Iowa State, and 1089 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 3: for this game, their DC, Jesse Bobbittt is going to 1090 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 3: be the interim. He changes the team rule and is 1091 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,399 Speaker 3: now allowing and everyone in the portal besides those guys 1092 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,720 Speaker 3: who left before Rogers, which is just their backup quarterback 1093 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:10,320 Speaker 3: Potter and their cornerback worthy to play in the bowl game. 1094 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 3: So I bought back and I will be rooting for 1095 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 3: Utah State to win by one or two, hopefully going 1096 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 3: for too late and get it. I haven't no skin 1097 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,399 Speaker 3: in the game. I don't know if there's more names 1098 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 3: coming for Utah State. I think that all these guys 1099 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 3: from Washington State are gonna play. I don't know. The 1100 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 3: Washington State defense is probably the best unit in this game, 1101 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 3: but I think Utah State has the better head coach. 1102 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 3: They will be feisty playing in the stadium they are 1103 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 3: familiar with. I don't know, so I'll ask you, guys, 1104 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 3: duck what you got here? 1105 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 5: I mean, I kind of like Utah State Wazoo without 1106 00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 5: their head coach, Bob It is going to Iowa State. 1107 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,359 Speaker 5: His family's already left, so he's kind of influx there. 1108 00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,759 Speaker 5: With the bowl game preparation. You know, the portal opt 1109 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 5: outs have come in and we saw some of this 1110 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,440 Speaker 5: last year with Wazoo where they showed up up against 1111 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 5: Syracuse with half a team, and I don't know how 1112 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 5: many of these guys are gonna play. So if you 1113 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 5: want to wait till fifteen minutes before kickoff, you could 1114 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,279 Speaker 5: zev is a dude and he's going to ball out 1115 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 5: in the bowl game. But some of the receivers they 1116 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 5: entered the portal, Yeah they're allowed to play, but we 1117 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:17,799 Speaker 5: don't know if these guys are going to play or not. 1118 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 5: I think the motivational factor will be on the side 1119 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,359 Speaker 5: of Utah State. Bronco gets to a bowl game after 1120 00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 5: he didn't get the ball opportunity last year in New 1121 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 5: Mexico should. 1122 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 6: Have this group really locked in. 1123 00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 5: I think about preseason expectations for UTA State, he showed up. 1124 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 5: The cupboard was fairly bare. The regular season win total 1125 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 5: was four and a half. Everyone thought this team was 1126 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:39,439 Speaker 5: going to be a complete turd in the Mountain West, 1127 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,720 Speaker 5: and they ended up being a real feisty group all season. 1128 00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,399 Speaker 5: And this is exactly where they want to be. They 1129 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 5: want to participate in this bowl game. We're not going 1130 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 5: to see a lot of guys I wouldn't anticipate opting 1131 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 5: out for UTA State. 1132 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 6: I think the ground game is where. 1133 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,919 Speaker 5: Utah State is going to be able to work. They're 1134 00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 5: gonna be able to run the ball with Barnes, Miles, 1135 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 5: Davis all have a big game, Jacobs will show up. 1136 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 5: You look at Wazu defensively one sixteenth in rush play 1137 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,480 Speaker 5: success rate given up on d ninety third and explosive 1138 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 5: rushes given up ninety ninth and defensive havoc. I wonder 1139 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,680 Speaker 5: if Utah State is able to just sustain possession of 1140 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 5: the ball by keeping it on the ground and those 1141 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 5: drives should. 1142 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 8: End up in the end zone. 1143 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 5: Wazoo offensively doesn't do really anything over the eye popping 1144 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 5: one nineteenth in yards per play, one twenty first in 1145 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 5: yards per rush. 1146 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, they really are. 1147 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 5: And you know, so you could look under if you like, 1148 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 5: if you like that sort of angle as well. But 1149 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 5: I still do wonder. I think that you'll see a 1150 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 5: situation similar to how the Cure Bowl played out, where 1151 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 5: you had a highly motivated old dominion group. I think 1152 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:51,400 Speaker 5: this Bowl game will really matter to Utah State and 1153 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 5: to their staff and schematically, I think they'll be able 1154 00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 5: to run the ball consistently for sixty minutes against Wazoo's 1155 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 5: defense and just be because. 1156 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 6: These players are allowed to play for Wazoo. 1157 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,479 Speaker 5: I still wonder how many are actually going to suit 1158 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 5: up and we may not know that till half an 1159 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 5: hour before game time. 1160 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,360 Speaker 3: So I do think Greta's going to play from what 1161 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,880 Speaker 3: I've heard, but we'll see. The Utah State wide receiver 1162 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 3: loss is big. He was one of the best receivers 1163 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 3: again in the first team All Conference. I will say 1164 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 3: Washington State, they travel well. I mean, you have to 1165 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 3: give them credit for they gave JMU a game in 1166 00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 3: a bad spot with travel. They gave Virginia a game, 1167 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 3: they gave Old Miss a game. I mean they were 1168 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 3: right there in all of them because of their defense. 1169 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 3: Uh so you have to give them credit for that. Colin, 1170 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 3: we're going We're back on the head to head train. 1171 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:43,360 Speaker 3: You're going against Duck here. You like the coups. 1172 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 7: I mean, I'm just flashing back to our podcast preseason 1173 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:48,800 Speaker 7: about how we contemplated Oregon State starting off zero to 1174 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 7: six in Washington State like being Bowl eligible, and. 1175 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:51,879 Speaker 8: Here we are. 1176 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 6: Look. 1177 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,840 Speaker 7: I think for me, the fact that Jesse Bobbitt is 1178 00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,839 Speaker 7: still there and he's the defensive coordinator for Washington State. 1179 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:01,840 Speaker 7: Fact that he's still there coaching that is the best 1180 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 7: aspect of this team. I don't worry about the coaching 1181 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 7: staff getting up and taking off, like Duck said Zebiya 1182 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 7: Kaus as a dude, He's gonna play, He's gonna ball out. 1183 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 7: Might be enough to beat Utah State's defense, but the 1184 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:15,880 Speaker 7: four two five of Washington State is one of the 1185 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 7: best pass defenses out there. Their top twenty five in 1186 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 7: quality and finishing drives. I mean, teams do not get 1187 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 7: methodicals against them, and they don't do very well when 1188 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,879 Speaker 7: they get close to the end zone. Utah State is 1189 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 7: so reliant on explosive plays, especially on the ground from 1190 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:33,279 Speaker 7: Pig Farmer, quarterback Bryce and Barnes, and we already mentioned 1191 00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 7: Miles Davis here. 1192 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,359 Speaker 8: But you know, Washing State's gonna get up the middle 1193 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 8: of the field. 1194 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:37,399 Speaker 6: It's one of those. 1195 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 7: Bend don't breaks, Like we're gonna get stiff around the 1196 00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 7: thirty yard line, but we'll give you the middle of 1197 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:44,279 Speaker 7: the field. They have horrible tackling numbers, but as long 1198 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 7: as they can stop these explosives from getting to the 1199 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 7: end zone, Washington State has the much better defense, the 1200 00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 7: much better third downs, much better everything. I trust that 1201 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 7: side of the ball, and I trust their interim coach 1202 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:54,919 Speaker 7: who is their DC. 1203 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:56,359 Speaker 8: So I'm taking Washington State. 1204 00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 1: Gotch want to break the tie I go utest State 1205 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 1: WAZU is just one of the most confounding teams to 1206 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,759 Speaker 1: cap throughout the entire season because they had I'm sure 1207 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,800 Speaker 1: the committee would somehow translate their three. 1208 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 4: Quality losses to Virginia, Ole Miss and James Madison into 1209 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 4: what a win and a half. I don't know how 1210 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:16,799 Speaker 4: their formula works, but they were really impressive, and you know, 1211 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 4: traveling across country for most of them. But then also 1212 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 4: they give up fifty nine points on two separate occasions. 1213 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 4: They lay an absolute egg against Oregon State the first 1214 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 4: go round. They gets are playing twice in the same season. 1215 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,400 Speaker 4: And then if you want to look at quality losses, 1216 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 4: how different would we view Utah State if they had 1217 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:35,120 Speaker 4: won that double overtime game against UNLV and the other 1218 00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 4: teams exactly, so it's like and then on top of it, 1219 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:40,799 Speaker 4: they played the other team that was in the Mountain 1220 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,480 Speaker 4: West Championship game, Boise, and they lost by one point. 1221 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,760 Speaker 3: And maybe four to end the game and didn't get. 1222 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 4: It exactly another fifteen seconds. Maybe they get a field 1223 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 4: goal off, maybe they win that game. So I think 1224 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:54,160 Speaker 4: they're a little bit closer to being a top four 1225 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 4: team in the Mountain West this year, I think we 1226 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 4: can kind of all view them as middle class in. 1227 00:56:58,080 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 3: A G five league. 1228 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 4: The other part of it is in terms of the 1229 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:05,040 Speaker 4: Wazoo defense, they did a really good job throughout the 1230 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 4: entire season containing running quarterbacks, and that concerns me a 1231 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 4: little bit because obviously we need the pick former to 1232 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 4: probably run for seventy five yards and have a couple 1233 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 4: scores in this game. I'm banking on the coaching chaos 1234 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 4: a little bit and the personnel questions. If you mean 1235 00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:21,440 Speaker 4: Duck said, thirty minutes before you know, kickoff, do we 1236 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 4: know who's suiting up? 1237 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 6: That's not even enough. 1238 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:24,959 Speaker 4: You just saw it in some bowl games the last 1239 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 4: couple of nights, teams just like quit in the third 1240 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 4: quarter all of a sudden. 1241 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 3: You can seeam Cook warmed up and then didn't decide 1242 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 3: to hey, I'm getting in streat clothes. Right. 1243 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,000 Speaker 4: So it's like, if Wazoo has a full deck and 1244 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 4: the coaching staff truly had their head in it the 1245 00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 4: whole way, maybe I'm on the wrong side of this. 1246 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 4: I think there's a higher likelihood than not that one 1247 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 4: of those things, either the personnel or the coaching staff 1248 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 4: has their mind in two places. And Barnes gets just 1249 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 4: enough done. They're not snake bit in another close game. 1250 00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 4: So I'm going to go with the Aggies here to 1251 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 4: win this thing. 1252 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, Washington State also benefited from a couple of scheduling 1253 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 3: spots like Toledo and Lotech going there and just nightmare spots, 1254 00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 3: which but they did really well. But if you are 1255 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 3: back in Utah State, good luck if they send out 1256 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 3: the field goal kicker. All right, Moving on to Tuesday, 1257 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,400 Speaker 3: the book of her Tone Bowl a confirmed plane ticket 1258 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 3: to book a raton Tuesday afternoon, two pm Eastern on 1259 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:16,240 Speaker 3: ESPN between Toledo and Louisville. Louisville's a six and a 1260 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 3: half point favorite total sitting around forty five at DraftKings. 1261 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 3: Lots of news in this one. Toledo transfer portal will 1262 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,480 Speaker 3: not play. They're starting d n Malachi Davis leads to 1263 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:31,080 Speaker 3: team in sacks, they're starting safety Bray Knolls, and they're 1264 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 3: starting linebacker Chris Dapolonia. From everyone else, sounds like they're 1265 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 3: locked in for Toledo. I mean, Emmanuel McNeil Warren talked 1266 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 3: about like one of the finish it's gonna be a 1267 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:43,320 Speaker 3: second round draft pick. He's dealing with a bit of 1268 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 3: a leg injury, so I wouldn't shock me if he 1269 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 3: didn't play, but he's talking like he's gonna play. Their 1270 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 3: defense is really good, Toledo. I mean, that's what let's 1271 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 3: the star of the show for them. They have a 1272 00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 3: really good secondary with Smith, Fuller, Bowers, McNeil Warren. They 1273 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,960 Speaker 3: obviously won't have awls here, but the secondary can ball. 1274 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,960 Speaker 3: The offense bit wonky at time. The running game is 1275 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,360 Speaker 3: better than last year because Chip Tranam was outed to 1276 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 3: the mix. Gives them a little more juice there. Junior 1277 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 3: Vander Ross, he's one, if not the best receiver in 1278 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 3: the MAC. He's their big time playmaker. It is worth 1279 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 3: noting now that they will have a backup quarterback here. 1280 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 3: Their third string Caleb Osborne is expected to start because 1281 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 3: Tucker Gleeson is doubtful. Their starting left guard is also questionable, 1282 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 3: but Gleason got hurt in the finale in Central Michigan. 1283 00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 3: They didn't score in the first half. Osborne came in. 1284 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 8: He went. 1285 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 3: What five or seven for one hundred and eight yards. 1286 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,440 Speaker 3: I added sixty eight yards on the ground on ten 1287 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 3: attempts to take away two sacks. He looked good and 1288 00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:50,040 Speaker 3: they outscored Central Michigan twenty one nothing after halftime. Gleason 1289 00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 3: is impossible to handicap. He is like one week he 1290 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:55,920 Speaker 3: will look incredible. The next week he cannot hit the 1291 00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 3: backside of the barn like it is incredible. How inconsistent 1292 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,840 Speaker 3: he is. Taledo also has a ton of coaching news 1293 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 3: candled to Yukon so their offensive line coach mikel at 1294 01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 3: Hope called the offense. Their cornerback coach, Perry Elliana will 1295 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 3: call the defense. Because they lost their defensive coordinator was 1296 01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:17,439 Speaker 3: a very good one, Vince Karis to Syracuse. They lost 1297 01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 3: their co defense coordinator and safety coach to Iowa State, 1298 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 3: Ross Watson. They also lost their special teams coordinator, Stanton Weaver, 1299 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 3: so you're gonna have some grad assistants having to step 1300 01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:29,160 Speaker 3: up as well. Louisville opt out. Strength of their defense 1301 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:30,760 Speaker 3: is their defensive line, but they won't have two of 1302 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 3: their best in Conga and Bailey, both of them are out. 1303 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 3: Miller Moss should play. Chris Bell, one of the best 1304 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:39,920 Speaker 3: receivers in the country. He's out with an injury slash NFL. 1305 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 3: I don't think he's actually towards acl Hope. He heals up, well, 1306 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,080 Speaker 3: I don't think he would have played anyway. The running 1307 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 3: backs for Louisville, we don't know. Brohm came out and 1308 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 3: he said he doesn't know. He hopes one can play 1309 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 3: of Isaac Brown, Key One Brown and Duke Watson. Other 1310 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 3: potential opt outs for Louisville. Clev Lubin. I think he's 1311 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 3: gonna play, but he's a stud defensive end. Their safety 1312 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 3: Antonio Watts, line acker Stanpoorne Clark has also been doing 1313 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:05,120 Speaker 3: an injury for most of the season. Having said all that, 1314 01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:08,760 Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't think what do you got here? 1315 01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 7: I mean, I got Toledo. I think the number should 1316 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 7: have been lower in the first place. And I'm not 1317 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 7: really sure it's a bad thing that Jason Kandal's moved on, 1318 01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 7: right Did you want to put your money behind him 1319 01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 7: another Bowl game? 1320 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:18,440 Speaker 8: I certainly didn't. 1321 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 7: So I think the spread is a little bit inflated 1322 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 7: because of all of these aspects. But at the same time, 1323 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 7: with your interim defensive coordinator being the Corners coach, I 1324 01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 7: just don't expect a huge drop off from the Toledo defense, 1325 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 7: which is the best unit that. 1326 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 8: They have right here. 1327 01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 7: So I mean Toledo's top defense and FBS with respect 1328 01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 7: creating contested catch. I mean, they're one of the best 1329 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 7: in so many different areas that that's going to come 1330 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:45,280 Speaker 7: into play here. I know Miller Moss is going to play, 1331 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 7: but what kind of weapons does he have in front 1332 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 7: of them? 1333 01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:49,400 Speaker 8: What kind of offensive line does he have in front 1334 01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 8: of him? 1335 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:52,720 Speaker 7: And Miller Moss is ninety seven and passing down success rate, 1336 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 7: Toledo is the best in the nation shutting down passing downs. 1337 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 7: Like if Louisville gets behind schedule, they're in trouble here. 1338 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 7: So I think Toledo keeps it a lot closer and 1339 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:02,120 Speaker 7: where the curtain market's at. 1340 01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:06,440 Speaker 3: It does feel this does feel like an under to 1341 01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 3: me on the surface, like this feels like I could 1342 01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 3: see also one of these teams just like scoring only 1343 01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:17,640 Speaker 3: like seven points and just looking really ugly. But I 1344 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 3: think both defenses now with complicates things for Me's Louisville's 1345 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 3: defensive line two of their better players being out, and 1346 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 3: that's like how they dominated opposing offenses up front. So 1347 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:30,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. This is one of the I like 1348 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 3: to have money on most Bowl games, even if I 1349 01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,640 Speaker 3: have to put like couch change on something. I have 1350 01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 3: no idea what I'm betting in this one. There's gonna 1351 01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 3: be more news to come, and stay tuned to the 1352 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 3: action of our gap. If you don't bet on a 1353 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 3: bowl as the Bowl even exist, duck, you got anything here? 1354 01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:50,200 Speaker 6: I mean, I do Lean Louisville. I'm not against. 1355 01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:52,760 Speaker 5: I don't have a play in pocket, but there could 1356 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:55,800 Speaker 5: be real problems here with Tucker Gleason not going and 1357 01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,600 Speaker 5: John Allen Richter is out for the season as well. 1358 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 5: So Khaleb Osborne's gonna get the call, and we just 1359 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,560 Speaker 5: don't know with Toledo, is Chip gonna play, Is junior 1360 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,919 Speaker 5: Vander Ross gonna play? Both thousand yard producers there? What's 1361 01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 5: the offensive line gonna look like? What's the secondary gonna 1362 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 5: look like for Toledo? Can you imagine if those four 1363 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 5: guys in the secondary don't show up and then Toledo 1364 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 5: all of a sudden can't defend the pass, which was 1365 01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 5: the strength of their defense most of the way this season. 1366 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:20,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, I just don't know. 1367 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,320 Speaker 5: There's so much with the participation report that needs to 1368 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 5: get sorted out. This is maybe the steam Watch game 1369 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:28,439 Speaker 5: where you get closer to game, you see the steam moving, 1370 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 5: you see word go on the participation report, who shows up, 1371 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 5: who doesn't show up. 1372 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 6: I'm even fine if this goes to nine and a half. 1373 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,919 Speaker 5: And we see that Steam and all the Toledo guys 1374 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,200 Speaker 5: are sitting out. I'll take Louisville at that point here, 1375 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 5: because if they don't have their major players in the 1376 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:46,160 Speaker 5: secondary and if Chip and Junior are out, could be 1377 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 5: real trouble. Just hard to know what we're gonna get 1378 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:52,440 Speaker 5: when we've got fifteen to twenty key guys that we 1379 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 5: don't know if they're gonna play or not. So nothing 1380 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 5: in pocket right now, but small lean to Louisville. 1381 01:03:58,320 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 3: I mean, the Toledo defense is legit. 1382 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,439 Speaker 6: Like you also come a data point two. 1383 01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 5: Toledo was down fifteen in the opener against Kentucky before 1384 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 5: getting a back door touchdown in garbage time. We know 1385 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 5: what Louisville did to Kentucky, So coming up. 1386 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 3: Big special teams events for Louisville worth noting, I will say, yeah. 1387 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 3: I mean, generally speaking, don't do this every time the 1388 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:23,960 Speaker 3: following Steam in bull season has been profitable. Historically, Usually 1389 01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 3: it's signal and that there's going to be opt outs, 1390 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 3: there's leaks, and then the line's going to keep going. 1391 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:34,840 Speaker 3: And then sometimes when there's opt outs and a bunch 1392 01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 3: of news, that's a signal that the team really isn't 1393 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:38,880 Speaker 3: locked in. And then a lot of times the number 1394 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 3: doesn't even matter whereas compared to the regular season where 1395 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 3: it does, where you know, if it moves three points, 1396 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 3: if you bought back, you're profitable over time, not necessarily 1397 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:52,080 Speaker 3: the case in bull season. I mean, we've already had 1398 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,240 Speaker 3: what I mean, I just saw what did is that 1399 01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 3: the Navy or Army just hit ten. I just got 1400 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:02,400 Speaker 3: a notification Army, Army just hit. Then Navy's out the seven. So, 1401 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:07,760 Speaker 3: by the way, lines come out every year, if you 1402 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:10,600 Speaker 3: learn nothing else from me. Ever, and I've been saying 1403 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 3: this for eight years, since we've been doing this, I've 1404 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 3: been betting for way longer. Service academies are seventy percent 1405 01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 3: against this pred since nineteen ninety. In bowl games, they 1406 01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:21,360 Speaker 3: always show up. There's gonna be no opt outs. Just 1407 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 3: when mines come out, bet Service academies and they're probably 1408 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,200 Speaker 3: gonna cover the clothes, and then the close is probably 1409 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:30,720 Speaker 3: gonna be like ten points worse than the open. So 1410 01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 3: you're passing here at Calgaries. 1411 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, this has all the flavor of the last NFL 1412 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 4: preseason game, Like we don't know who's gonna play, we 1413 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 4: don't know how long they're gonna play, we don't know 1414 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:43,680 Speaker 4: who's calling plays in some cases, and coaching and everything else. 1415 01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,840 Speaker 3: Like let's just get to the next bowl game, all right, 1416 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 3: Well let's do that. Uh, Southern Miss and Western Kentucky. 1417 01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:55,920 Speaker 3: This is the Disappointment Bowl. Both of these teams stumbled 1418 01:05:55,920 --> 01:06:00,360 Speaker 3: down the stretch and after I having chain answers to 1419 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:03,120 Speaker 3: go to their conference championship games, and Southern Miss lost 1420 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:06,680 Speaker 3: three straight. Western Kentucky lost two straight, although one was 1421 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:12,000 Speaker 3: a hard fought game at LSU. This game, let me see, well, 1422 01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:15,800 Speaker 3: I'll go through news first. Western Kentucky transferportal doesn't really 1423 01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 3: matter help them. Usually that's all his players play. But 1424 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:21,560 Speaker 3: they had a cornerback and a running back Flowers at 1425 01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,480 Speaker 3: corner right who's not a starter but played over two 1426 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:27,600 Speaker 3: hundred snaps no real injuries worth noting. Southern Miss Josh 1427 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:29,520 Speaker 3: Moten their corner he's going to play in the NFL. 1428 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 3: He actually came out and said, like where brothers were playing, 1429 01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:33,439 Speaker 3: So I think he's going to play, but he could 1430 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 3: opt out. They're left tackle Blake bustered. He missed the finale. 1431 01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:42,000 Speaker 3: Charles Huff took the Memphis job, which does increase the 1432 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 3: chance of opt outs. 1433 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1434 01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:45,560 Speaker 3: I mean last year they had to cancel the Bowl 1435 01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 3: because he left and they had no no one left. 1436 01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 3: Speaking of Army line movements, I think I had Army 1437 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:51,760 Speaker 3: minus seven in that game. He was got out the 1438 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:55,280 Speaker 3: eighteen and a half was going to close twenty one. Sadly, 1439 01:06:55,760 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 3: Marshall quit oftense coordinator Blake Anderson. He's going to be 1440 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,240 Speaker 3: interim coach and it'll take over as head coach next season. 1441 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,840 Speaker 3: Anderson has not been great Bowl games historically. I think 1442 01:07:04,840 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 3: he's three and six against the spread. Well, when I 1443 01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 3: look at this game, these two teams are let me 1444 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:20,560 Speaker 3: look at the updated spread here, Western Kentucky five and 1445 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 3: a half point favorite, total fifty seven and a half. 1446 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:30,360 Speaker 3: Pace is gonna be there for sure. But I so 1447 01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 3: there's gonna be a fast paced game. But I don't know. 1448 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,600 Speaker 3: So if you break down these teams, they're kind of 1449 01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:40,560 Speaker 3: similar in that Western Kentucky doesn't give up a lot 1450 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:44,240 Speaker 3: of pass explosives, but they give up a ton of 1451 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 3: run explosives. But Southern miss might be the least rush 1452 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 3: exploded rush run explosive team in the country. I mean 1453 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 3: who they just handed to. Who's the running back Pittman 1454 01:07:52,680 --> 01:07:55,440 Speaker 3: who just like plods along for three yards? They might 1455 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 3: not have a twenty yard run on the season. Southern 1456 01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 3: Miss also does their strength as their secondary. They do 1457 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:04,400 Speaker 3: a good job of limiting pass explosives, but you can 1458 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:07,640 Speaker 3: get tons of run explosives on them. But Western Kentucky 1459 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 3: has no rush explosiveness, so and Western Kentucky's offense in 1460 01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 3: general is not explosive, right. They'd want to like dank 1461 01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:19,639 Speaker 3: and dunk and work the ball down the field. They 1462 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 3: it is worth any Western Kentucky had two quarterbacks this year. 1463 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 3: They started with mcgiver and then they went to Tisdale. 1464 01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 3: I have them rated the same. I think all of 1465 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 3: their events stats are the same, and I can't find 1466 01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:31,240 Speaker 3: any difference between the two, So I don't really think 1467 01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:31,799 Speaker 3: it matters. 1468 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:32,880 Speaker 8: Duck. 1469 01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:34,080 Speaker 3: I'll go to you first. What are you seeing here? 1470 01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:36,839 Speaker 3: Western Kentucky and Southern Miss. 1471 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:38,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I would lean over here. Should be 1472 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:41,160 Speaker 5: a fun matchup. I would imagine two teams that are 1473 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:44,120 Speaker 5: pretty motivated to be there. I'm not sure that either 1474 01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 5: defense is really going to secure a lot of stops, 1475 01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:50,680 Speaker 5: and we should have a pretty good quarterback battle here 1476 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:52,360 Speaker 5: between Tisdale and Braylan Braxon. 1477 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 3: Both teams might be healthier by the way, because he 1478 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:56,600 Speaker 3: was dealing with an injury down the stretch. 1479 01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, and really cost that team too, Like he was 1480 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 5: not playing against Texas State and was still hurt against 1481 01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,200 Speaker 5: South Alabama and they kind of shut that one down. 1482 01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:06,160 Speaker 5: And then now you try to come back in the 1483 01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:08,400 Speaker 5: finale against Troy, and it's just hard for those teams 1484 01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:10,160 Speaker 5: to switch it on and off that late in the season. 1485 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 5: But you know, anyway, so the pace will be there. 1486 01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:17,559 Speaker 5: Southern Miss eleventh nationally and offensive operating tempo Western Kentucky 1487 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:21,639 Speaker 5: thirty third. You look at Southern Miss, Okay, it's securing 1488 01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:23,800 Speaker 5: the explosive pass plays, but I don't know that Western 1489 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 5: Kentucky's going to give that up. And I don't know 1490 01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 5: if Braxton's going to run the ball on the ground. 1491 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:30,280 Speaker 5: That's how you're gonna gash Western Kentucky is by doing 1492 01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:33,200 Speaker 5: it on the ground. Southern Miss not necessarily equipped to 1493 01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:38,519 Speaker 5: do that. Western Kentucky historically plays in these higher scoring 1494 01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 5: bowl games, and they have done. 1495 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:41,960 Speaker 6: A little bit of kind of pulling the. 1496 01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,240 Speaker 5: Wool over your eyes with the opt outs not opt outs, 1497 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:45,800 Speaker 5: players aren't going to set out and then they all 1498 01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:47,840 Speaker 5: decide to show up. They've done that year after year, 1499 01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:50,040 Speaker 5: so hard to know what to get here. And I 1500 01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 5: will say this, we've seen teams in Bowl season already 1501 01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:57,000 Speaker 5: this year that have been participating with half a staff, 1502 01:09:57,320 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 5: and they play like they're playing without a staff. So 1503 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,639 Speaker 5: you might get some weird stuff in this one, which 1504 01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 5: is kind of keeping me off the total. But strength 1505 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:05,120 Speaker 5: on strength, i'd lean over. 1506 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 3: Western Kentucky's special teams advantage and I didn't mention this 1507 01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 3: is we'll we played on a fast track at the Superdome. 1508 01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 3: It's the New Orleans Bowl, the New Orleans Bowl in Louisiana. Colin, 1509 01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:18,200 Speaker 3: you got anything here? 1510 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, just to echo a little bit. 1511 01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:23,760 Speaker 7: I mean Western Kentucky's twenty fourth and special teams s 1512 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 7: P plus tell me how important special teams have been 1513 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:27,639 Speaker 7: With a few Bowl games that we've seen so far, 1514 01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 7: I've got punt returners dropping punts and long snappers. 1515 01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:33,360 Speaker 8: Trying to retrieve and run for touchdowns. I've never seen 1516 01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 8: that before in my life. 1517 01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:36,120 Speaker 3: What happened to Grammatica? By the way, I knew the 1518 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,120 Speaker 3: Old Dominion is the worst kicking game in the country, 1519 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 3: but the Grammatica, he just. 1520 01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 8: All just killed me. I have no answers for grammat 1521 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:44,080 Speaker 8: for one of. 1522 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:48,519 Speaker 7: The many grammaticas Western Kentucky here. I mean, their defense 1523 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 7: is much better. I mean they have a huge advantage 1524 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 7: in third downs, defending explosives and their eleventh and defensive 1525 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:56,800 Speaker 7: finishing drives. And then you want to go up against 1526 01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:58,799 Speaker 7: an offense, and I know that we said the Braylen 1527 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 7: Braxman could be healthy here, but now Blake Anderson's completely 1528 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:03,640 Speaker 7: in charge of this offense, so we know it's going 1529 01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:06,080 Speaker 7: to be the same moled of what they've done. I mean, 1530 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 7: Southern Miss completely petered out down the stretch, blew all 1531 01:11:09,880 --> 01:11:12,639 Speaker 7: of our forty to one tickets, and in their final 1532 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 7: thirty six offensive possessions they had two explosive drives. 1533 01:11:17,439 --> 01:11:17,840 Speaker 8: That's it. 1534 01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 7: That's a drive that is ten yards per play, two 1535 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:25,000 Speaker 7: out of thirty six. I'm taking Western Kentucky here, a 1536 01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:28,719 Speaker 7: major special teams advantage, defensive advantage by the goal line. 1537 01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:30,400 Speaker 8: I'm not even questioning it. 1538 01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:33,560 Speaker 7: Because the Southern Miss, the coaching staff is splintered, the 1539 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:35,320 Speaker 7: team is splintered, and if they are. If the kids 1540 01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 7: are playing, it's because they're trying to increase. 1541 01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 8: How much they're worth in the portal. 1542 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:40,080 Speaker 7: Oh, by the way, Southern miss one hundred and thirty 1543 01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:43,640 Speaker 7: third strength to schedule like they're it's I can't even 1544 01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:44,920 Speaker 7: believe I had a ticket Autum all season. 1545 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 8: Had to have a straight face. 1546 01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:48,320 Speaker 3: The one thing I will say if you're kind of 1547 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:53,840 Speaker 3: poking holes in Western Kentucky is although Conference USA is 1548 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 3: a wagon, like if I were to poke holes in them, 1549 01:11:57,880 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 3: they because its not a misdn't play anyone either. But 1550 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 3: if you look at Western Kentucky's wins, right, they had 1551 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:08,519 Speaker 3: a miracle over Lattec, they should have lost. They needed 1552 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:10,320 Speaker 3: like a fourth and ten and they wanted overtime by 1553 01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:12,720 Speaker 3: one on a two point conversion. They should have lost 1554 01:12:12,720 --> 01:12:15,120 Speaker 3: the Delaware They had all kinds of flukey plays in 1555 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:15,559 Speaker 3: that game. 1556 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:16,240 Speaker 6: They should have lost. 1557 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,240 Speaker 3: The Missouri State Clark got hurt and didn't play in 1558 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 3: the second half. They were out gained and so only 1559 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:23,599 Speaker 3: won by five. They also were outgained by Nevada at home, 1560 01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 3: I believe, but what they won by fifteen, so they're 1561 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:30,560 Speaker 3: only legit wins on the season where Sam Houston North Alabama, Nevada, 1562 01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 3: New Mexico State, and Middle Tennessee. Like that's the that 1563 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,960 Speaker 3: is an ugly batch. Now, they did play at ALSU 1564 01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:42,599 Speaker 3: really well. I do like certain aspects of their defense, 1565 01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:48,759 Speaker 3: although they don't get much pressure, but it's a feisty group. Calbaryes. 1566 01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:50,680 Speaker 3: You like the over here, Yeah, I going. 1567 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,519 Speaker 4: To go over I feel like the whole trends of boldseason. 1568 01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:55,519 Speaker 4: It's like, why don't we just bet, you know, under 1569 01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:57,439 Speaker 4: across the board? But I like over here because of 1570 01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:00,280 Speaker 4: the pace. I also think Southern Missus defense just fell 1571 01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:02,599 Speaker 4: off a cliff forty one to Texas State, forty two 1572 01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 4: to South Alabama, four hundred and twenty eight total yards 1573 01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,720 Speaker 4: allowed to Troy an offense I didn't really respect. And 1574 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 4: that's with Josh Moden. I think he should opt out, 1575 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:12,320 Speaker 4: just go start, you know, getting ready for the NFL Draft. 1576 01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 4: There's nothing left to prepare for in terms of your 1577 01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 4: college experience. This bowl game doesn't have a whole lot 1578 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:21,679 Speaker 4: of trappings or prestige. And I'll push back a tiny 1579 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:24,800 Speaker 4: bit on the quarterback switch. I think Tisdale has at 1580 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:27,479 Speaker 4: least he has a mystery box ceiling. Mc iver has 1581 01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:29,640 Speaker 4: been playing since like twenty seventeen, we know who he 1582 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,920 Speaker 4: was Tizdelle. Being a freshman, he's throwing together three straight 1583 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,680 Speaker 4: starts where he had over three hundred total yards. So 1584 01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 4: I think he can give a little someone extra in 1585 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 4: the run game and then Blake Anderson, you know, taking 1586 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,800 Speaker 4: over this program now he has full creative control. I 1587 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,559 Speaker 4: think this is a showcase opportunity for kids, you know 1588 01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:47,880 Speaker 4: that are coming to the portal to say, this is 1589 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:49,519 Speaker 4: what my offense is going to look like in twenty 1590 01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:51,400 Speaker 4: twenty six. Don't you want to be a part of it, 1591 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:53,880 Speaker 4: Because if you look at it, as Colin just pointed out, 1592 01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:56,200 Speaker 4: not a whole lot of recent tape that would excite 1593 01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:58,760 Speaker 4: somebody to say, I'm going to leave some money on 1594 01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 4: the table and go to Hattie's birth to play for 1595 01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:02,680 Speaker 4: this offense. So I think there's a chance for him 1596 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:05,559 Speaker 4: to be in his bag against a Western Kentucky defense 1597 01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:07,559 Speaker 4: that they do a lot of things well, but they don't. 1598 01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:09,000 Speaker 3: Tackle very well. One of the worst in conference. 1599 01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:10,920 Speaker 4: You was, say, one hundred and eighteenth in the country 1600 01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:13,800 Speaker 4: in that regard per PFF. So I look at it, 1601 01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 4: you know, as these two teams potentially could take advantage 1602 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 4: of some defenses that faddened up on not the best 1603 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:22,360 Speaker 4: schedules you just mentioned. 1604 01:14:22,400 --> 01:14:22,840 Speaker 3: It stuck. 1605 01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:25,800 Speaker 4: Like the best passing offense that Western faced really in 1606 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,400 Speaker 4: the last two months was Delaware and Minikuchi threw for 1607 01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,479 Speaker 4: three hundred and fourteen yards. So I think the pace 1608 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 4: is going to give us the opportunities. We'll see if 1609 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:35,240 Speaker 4: these offenses can get it going in the right direction. 1610 01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:37,479 Speaker 4: But I think these defenses may be just a little 1611 01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 4: bit overrated in their metrics because of the opponents they faced. 1612 01:14:41,360 --> 01:14:43,799 Speaker 3: By the way, quick teaser for next episode, speaking of overs, 1613 01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:47,479 Speaker 3: as long as UTSA offense is healthy, I think Utsafiu 1614 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:49,760 Speaker 3: flies over. If I use the whole secondary is going 1615 01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 3: to be out. It sounds like Utsa's entire defense is 1616 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:54,760 Speaker 3: going to be out. But we'll speak on that game next. 1617 01:14:54,880 --> 01:14:56,920 Speaker 3: Let's move on to the Fristco Bowl Tuesday, December twenty third, 1618 01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:00,679 Speaker 3: nine pm Eastern or ESPN. Big news here between Ohio 1619 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:05,960 Speaker 3: and unlv is. Ohio has fired their coach, Brian Smith 1620 01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:09,559 Speaker 3: for hoarding alcohol and drinking on the job. It sounds 1621 01:15:09,600 --> 01:15:13,439 Speaker 3: like they said it was activities that reflect unfavorably on 1622 01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:16,760 Speaker 3: the university. Defensive coordinator John Howser will take over as 1623 01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:20,320 Speaker 3: interim head coach. We've seen you Nov take some money 1624 01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:22,000 Speaker 3: out to a six and a half point favorite. 1625 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:25,520 Speaker 6: Over is ticked up to sixty four. 1626 01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 3: And a half. Not a lot of opt out or 1627 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 3: injury news as of right now. Michael Molnar Ohio's linebacker. 1628 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:34,559 Speaker 3: He's been out since week nine, but not much now 1629 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 3: because they we'll probably have some more news coming up. 1630 01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:41,559 Speaker 3: But who likes anything here? I got nothing as of now. 1631 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:44,040 Speaker 3: Maybe I'll fade Ohio one last time for the road. 1632 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:47,320 Speaker 3: If you liked the first half over yeah. 1633 01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:48,840 Speaker 7: First half over here. I didn't think ULV was going 1634 01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 7: to be able to get stopped anyways. But now the 1635 01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 7: Brian Smith is gone, you're going to. 1636 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 8: See and think about it. 1637 01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:55,400 Speaker 7: He's been on staff since twenty twenty two, right he 1638 01:15:55,479 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 7: was calling plays for Tim Alvin and so who is 1639 01:15:58,200 --> 01:15:58,439 Speaker 7: going to. 1640 01:15:58,439 --> 01:15:59,439 Speaker 8: Call these plays? Well? 1641 01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:01,680 Speaker 7: I believe even their scripted portion, that they're gonna be 1642 01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:03,680 Speaker 7: able to get points on the board of park and 1643 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,080 Speaker 7: to borrow and sea ben Gera, which the both should 1644 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:08,759 Speaker 7: be able to attack this UNLV that just app attack 1645 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,480 Speaker 7: the UNLB defense that cannot defend the run whatsoever. 1646 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:13,599 Speaker 8: Like they're terrible stuff. 1647 01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:17,000 Speaker 7: Rate lineyards EPA, it's all bad and UNLV has those 1648 01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:20,440 Speaker 7: same advantages on offense a clanderas should cook here in standardowns. 1649 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 7: You know, these top twenty and explosives and standardowns exact 1650 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 7: opposite of what Ohio's defense does. So I think UNLV 1651 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 7: gets chunk yardage quick, fast, scoring fast, and I think 1652 01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 7: Ohio can at least answer. I think Ohio tails off 1653 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 7: in the second half just from the fact of will 1654 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 7: they be able to change the game plan a little bit? 1655 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 7: Will they be able to make adjustments on the fly 1656 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,800 Speaker 7: without Brian Smith there, especially since he's the only one 1657 01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:43,679 Speaker 7: I think that's called. 1658 01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:44,759 Speaker 8: Plays for the last three years. 1659 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:46,280 Speaker 7: So I do like the first half over and then 1660 01:16:46,320 --> 01:16:48,360 Speaker 7: after that at some point I'll be looking to dive 1661 01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:49,679 Speaker 7: in and grab you UNLV live. 1662 01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:53,559 Speaker 3: Maybe U and lv's dumb enough not to double chase 1663 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:57,719 Speaker 3: Hendrix because when teams do that, the Ohio passing offense craters. 1664 01:16:57,960 --> 01:16:59,280 Speaker 3: Did doc do you said there's an update on the 1665 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:00,920 Speaker 3: coaching situation than the last half hour. 1666 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, So it sounds like reports from people that are 1667 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:07,840 Speaker 5: close to the program have confirmed that he was terminated 1668 01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:11,560 Speaker 5: because of an inappropriate relationship with a female staffer. 1669 01:17:11,560 --> 01:17:12,920 Speaker 8: Not because of drinking on the job. 1670 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:16,600 Speaker 5: Not because of drinking after his shift was over.

Disarray for Ohio 1696 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 3: and this coaching staff on. 1697 01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:20,360 Speaker 6: The other side. 1698 01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:22,760 Speaker 8: You know moll were undressed. 1699 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:26,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, mull In seven and three in bowl games. 1700 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:28,840 Speaker 4: He's somebody who cares about it gets you know, his 1701 01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:30,799 Speaker 4: guy's focus growing in the same direction. 1702 01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 3: I mean, it's one of the reasons I like Bronco 1703 01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 3: earlier in the show with Utah State. He also has 1704 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,200 Speaker 3: seven Bowl wins Ohio. 1705 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 4: By the way, you know to do a post more 1706 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:39,479 Speaker 4: of them on the whole season started with so much promise, 1707 01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:42,640 Speaker 4: near upset of Rutgers, upset West Virginia, and then the 1708 01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 4: bottom fell out. I mean Parker Navarro completely fell apart 1709 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:46,040 Speaker 4: as a passer. 1710 01:18:46,479 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 3: Was it injury, was it play calling? Was a loss of. 1711 01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 4: Confidence because you look at the last month of the season, 1712 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 4: his completion percentage dipped to forty five percent, three tds, 1713 01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:58,439 Speaker 4: three picks. I mean, if it wasn't for all the 1714 01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:00,120 Speaker 4: work that he does on the ground, the offense to 1715 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:03,080 Speaker 4: completely cratered. So can U n LV keep them in 1716 01:19:03,160 --> 01:19:05,240 Speaker 4: the pocket and prevent that The numbers would say no 1717 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:08,240 Speaker 4: in terms of what they've done, you know, run defense 1718 01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:11,200 Speaker 4: wise this season, but everything else they got more respectable 1719 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,000 Speaker 4: as the season went on. They finished sixty third and 1720 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:15,959 Speaker 4: a halfo twenty first in pass rush, sixty fifth in coverage. 1721 01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 4: So this game flow, if they can jump out and 1722 01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:20,840 Speaker 4: make it a game script where Ohio has to pass 1723 01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:23,559 Speaker 4: the football, I think they can run away from these guys. 1724 01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:26,679 Speaker 4: So really, all I'm asking for from the ReBs defense 1725 01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:29,519 Speaker 4: here is like three punts, you know, fall on a fumble, 1726 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,599 Speaker 4: get a tipped interception, hold them to a field goal 1727 01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:33,600 Speaker 4: attempt in the red zone. I'm not asking for the 1728 01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:35,519 Speaker 4: world here. I think the offense will do the rest. 1729 01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:36,679 Speaker 4: I'll lay the six and a half. 1730 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:38,680 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna win by double digits. Well, how 1731 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 3: those special teams are also disaster. They cannot kick field 1732 01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 3: They're incapable of kicking field goals, which could lead to 1733 01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:48,719 Speaker 3: a couple failed drives. By the way, was fitting news here. 1734 01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:53,160 Speaker 3: My file never sleeps talking about Washington State leading rusher 1735 01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:55,320 Speaker 3: just hit the portal and will not play in the Bowl. 1736 01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 3: Four ease, Let's move on to the final game, one 1737 01:19:58,360 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 3: of my favorites, the Hawaii bo Christmas Eve between Hawaii 1738 01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:06,759 Speaker 3: and Cal. Nick Rolovich will lead Cal and we'll return 1739 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:09,559 Speaker 3: to Hawaii. It looks like Cal is going to be 1740 01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 3: like close to little strength. They have a couple of 1741 01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:14,720 Speaker 3: injuries Masses. Their corner is the Stuttle get drafted. He 1742 01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 3: might opt out, but I haven't heard anything Hawaii Jackson Harris. 1743 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:19,800 Speaker 3: That's a big loss of wide receiver at forty nine 1744 01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:22,040 Speaker 3: catches for nine hundred and sixty three yards and twelve touchdowns. 1745 01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:26,280 Speaker 3: He had the portal a couple injuries for Hawaii wide receiver, corner, 1746 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:31,000 Speaker 3: and linebacker.

I bring in like you know, 1792 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:46,080 Speaker 4: a little bit of ahi, tuna, tartar, like you know, 1793 01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:48,479 Speaker 4: all kinds of like different stuff that barely should qualify 1794 01:22:48,560 --> 01:22:51,400 Speaker 4: as traditional Italian seven fish dinners. 1795 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 3: But we're hitting it a lot of shellfish as well. 1796 01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 4: But the whiskey sours will power me through the Hawaii 1797 01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:57,759 Speaker 4: Bowl come back to the bows. 1798 01:22:58,080 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1799 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:00,880 Speaker 7: I mean, I think you have to ask yourself which 1800 01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:03,920 Speaker 7: quarterback is going to have more success, And I think 1801 01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:06,080 Speaker 7: there's a bunch of things that are pointing towards Hawaii. 1802 01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 7: He because Jks is going to face the Hawaii defense 1803 01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 7: that's inside the top forty and creating a contested catch 1804 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:13,960 Speaker 7: and in PFF coverage grading, so a little bit tougher 1805 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 7: of a path for him, where Mika Alejandro really all 1806 01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:19,560 Speaker 7: cal the defense has as a top twenty five inefficiency 1807 01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:22,120 Speaker 7: from a success rate standpoint. I don't know if why's 1808 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:23,439 Speaker 7: going be able to get down. But it's not really 1809 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:26,400 Speaker 7: their offense. They're more of creating chunk plays, and the 1810 01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:29,000 Speaker 7: differences comes in the coverages that they're going to face. 1811 01:23:29,320 --> 01:23:31,719 Speaker 7: Jks is going to see a ton of quarters coverage, 1812 01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:34,080 Speaker 7: which he was about forty nine percent success rate against, 1813 01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:36,040 Speaker 7: and Alohado is going to see cover three, which he 1814 01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 7: just blasted this year fifty five percent success rate. There 1815 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 7: is I hate to harp on this, but it's been 1816 01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:44,439 Speaker 7: important in the Bowl game so far. There is a 1817 01:23:44,640 --> 01:23:47,719 Speaker 7: massive difference in special teams here, all in favor of Hawaii. 1818 01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:49,639 Speaker 3: Whi is the best kick in the country besides Stake 1819 01:23:49,680 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 3: Sandaldot the home give me the buck he missed this year. 1820 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:54,920 Speaker 3: By the way, my only concern for Hawaii is you 1821 01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 3: want to run on cal and Hawaii doesn't really run 1822 01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,559 Speaker 3: the ball like Col's run defense is pitiful. Talk you 1823 01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:02,800 Speaker 3: like Whi and Chang, who's been very good as a 1824 01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:05,840 Speaker 3: home dog on the island. This total's come down a 1825 01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:07,920 Speaker 3: bit for what it's worth as well, but duck, you 1826 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:09,960 Speaker 3: liked the bows as well I do. 1827 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:13,160 Speaker 5: And you know, Hawaii doesn't have a real explosive rush attack, 1828 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:15,360 Speaker 5: but they've at least committed to attempting to run the 1829 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:17,240 Speaker 5: ball a little bit more this season as opposed to 1830 01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:20,479 Speaker 5: prior seasons where they abandoned the run entirely fair. You 1831 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:25,439 Speaker 5: talk about a spot first Bowl game during the Timmy 1832 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 5: Chang tenure. This fan base has been starved for winning football. 1833 01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:32,360 Speaker 5: There was a lot of flak for Timmy Chang not 1834 01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:34,679 Speaker 5: getting over the hump. The run and shoot wasn't running 1835 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:37,599 Speaker 5: and shooting. And this team hasn't played this Bowl game 1836 01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:39,840 Speaker 5: since twenty nineteen. They were in one and then it 1837 01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:43,240 Speaker 5: was canceled. And these guys on Christmas Eve in front 1838 01:24:43,240 --> 01:24:46,320 Speaker 5: of their home fans to show up and play football 1839 01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:48,920 Speaker 5: one last time for their seniors. This is all this 1840 01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 5: team can talk about. The Brada hood everything else. This 1841 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 5: play doesn't come without risk, right, Jackson Harris is significant 1842 01:24:55,439 --> 01:24:59,559 Speaker 5: loss at receiver. Nick Senecal is hurt and he's another 1843 01:24:59,640 --> 01:25:02,599 Speaker 5: key p in the past game here. But I expect 1844 01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:08,240 Speaker 5: the atmosphere to be electric. I expect Hawaii to show 1845 01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 5: up fully engage their defense, and you talked about the 1846 01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:15,360 Speaker 5: defensive prowess much much better at home this season, real 1847 01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,519 Speaker 5: strong defensive team at home. You know, there's another fun 1848 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:21,439 Speaker 5: element to this, which is Nick Rolovich comes back to Hawaii. 1849 01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:24,720 Speaker 5: He replaced Timmy Chang at quarterback way back when and 1850 01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:27,840 Speaker 5: then took over head coach at Hawaii. Had some fun teams, 1851 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:32,679 Speaker 5: but he comes back here. Schematically is probably an even game, 1852 01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 5: but I think special teams will be a big difference here. 1853 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,280 Speaker 5: You talk about punt coverage, you talk about the Tokyo 1854 01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:42,120 Speaker 5: tow and nailing field goals. He can drill field goals 1855 01:25:42,160 --> 01:25:45,840 Speaker 5: from really comfortably anywhere inside of about fifty four, so 1856 01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 5: really good special teams advantage. I expect Micah Alohado to 1857 01:25:49,400 --> 01:25:51,759 Speaker 5: play really, really well in this game. I like Hawaii 1858 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:54,800 Speaker 5: at home. Christmas Eve, get the Scotch, get the gin, 1859 01:25:54,960 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 5: get whatever you want. Sip this one while you're opening 1860 01:25:57,280 --> 01:25:59,080 Speaker 5: up Christmas gifts. This is gonna be a fun game. 1861 01:25:59,280 --> 01:26:02,400 Speaker 7: And you know that naco A Booster Club is going 1862 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:04,800 Speaker 7: to Rollovich's hotel the night before and saying, okay, in 1863 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:06,639 Speaker 7: the fourth quarter, we need this to happen here. 1864 01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:08,719 Speaker 3: You go, well, yeah, there. Also, it is worth noting 1865 01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 3: ton of Lula could be some wins. You want to 1866 01:26:12,400 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 3: check that closer to the game, But it actually looks 1867 01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:16,800 Speaker 3: like as of right now, there's like twenty mile an 1868 01:26:16,840 --> 01:26:19,040 Speaker 3: hour wins. Maybe that's why the totals come down a bit, 1869 01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:22,960 Speaker 3: but still too early to tell. There you you also 1870 01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:24,880 Speaker 3: are on the bows Calgaries. 1871 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:25,360 Speaker 6: I am duck. 1872 01:26:25,439 --> 01:26:27,080 Speaker 3: I thought you were going to finish with the haka there. 1873 01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 4: It was like a pregame speech getting me fired up 1874 01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:32,880 Speaker 4: for a Rainbow Warrior football. I mean, I'll say this, 1875 01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:36,040 Speaker 4: the loss of Jackson Senecal that doesn't make me feel great. 1876 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,400 Speaker 4: But they do bring back three receivers or bring into 1877 01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:40,280 Speaker 4: this game, I should say, three receivers who had at 1878 01:26:40,360 --> 01:26:43,320 Speaker 4: least thirty receptions this year in Ashlock, White, Papunu so 1879 01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:46,519 Speaker 4: with one hundred percent healthy Alijado. This is a guy 1880 01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:48,719 Speaker 4: who you know, had four games with three hundred plus 1881 01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:50,519 Speaker 4: through the air in Mountain West play. He led the 1882 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:54,679 Speaker 4: conference with sixty six percent completions, nineteen passing touchdowns, another 1883 01:26:54,720 --> 01:26:56,840 Speaker 4: one on the ground. He was everything he was cracked 1884 01:26:56,880 --> 01:26:58,600 Speaker 4: up to be when he was healthy. And we know 1885 01:26:58,680 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 4: he's going to be healthy in this game. 1886 01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:01,679 Speaker 6: And if this was any. 1887 01:27:01,560 --> 01:27:03,960 Speaker 4: Power for team rolling in that could run the football, 1888 01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:06,680 Speaker 4: I'd have my concerns. We actually thought in the preseason 1889 01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:09,040 Speaker 4: that Hawaii in the trench and in the front seven 1890 01:27:09,240 --> 01:27:11,280 Speaker 4: could be a little bit stout. They were not, but 1891 01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 4: Col's offensive line can't move a blocking slid there. One 1892 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,960 Speaker 4: hundred and twenty eighth in lineyards. They gave up running 1893 01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,559 Speaker 4: it all together, one hundred and twenty ninth. 1894 01:27:17,439 --> 01:27:18,040 Speaker 3: In run rate. 1895 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 4: JKS is super promising flashes that program savior kind of energy. 1896 01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 3: I hope that they can keep them in the Bay Area. 1897 01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:27,519 Speaker 4: I know that it sounds like they're working on it 1898 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 4: or but I mean, crazy things happen, and there's certainly 1899 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:33,880 Speaker 4: a lot of quarterbacks starved programs with deep pockets around 1900 01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:35,960 Speaker 4: the country. If they can keep them, that's great. He 1901 01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:38,200 Speaker 4: is going to be thrown into Hawaii secondary. Those thirty 1902 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 4: six and coverage and twenty ninth in pass rush, So 1903 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:41,160 Speaker 4: I think that's a pretty good combo. 1904 01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:42,599 Speaker 6: I'll finish it sacks. 1905 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:46,200 Speaker 3: JKS will take sacks and exactly, and I'll finish it 1906 01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:46,519 Speaker 3: off with. 1907 01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:48,640 Speaker 4: Us Chang on the island ten and four in his 1908 01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:52,080 Speaker 4: last fourteen, twelve and two against the spread. 1909 01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:54,160 Speaker 3: Give me the Rainbow Warriors. I think they win this 1910 01:27:54,200 --> 01:27:56,080 Speaker 3: one out right, all right.
