16
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: of housekeeping slash show breaking news is that we finally

21
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: a lot, I'm like blown away by the response that

22
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 1: we've gotten here in the early going, I've been pretty

23
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: active on the discord server that came as part of

24
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 1: the Patreon subscription, and just been talking to folks who

25
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: are subscribing. Everyone's excited about it. Everyone's thrilled to be

26
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: there and you know, be building this community with us.

27
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: So thus far it's been really exhilarating.

28
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've been pretty loose with the the behind the

29
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: scenes kimono over there on the Discord server. I appreciate that, Tie,

30
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: This is what I'm excited for. I'm excited to peel

31
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 2: that back for people who are super into the show

32
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: and like to see how the sausage is made. I

33
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 2: know these are all words that are deeply uncomfortable when

34
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: paired together, Tie, but it's it's quite fun. The bonus

35
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 2: brewin a we did for patrons where we touched on

36
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: SEC defenses, we touched on Clemson and there perhaps acc problem.

37
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 2: You revealed some uncomfortable details about the mysterious day job.

38
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 1: It's true, it's true.

39
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 2: And yeah, when I say uncomfortable, you are visibly in

40
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: full HD, full ten ADP, uncomfortable, squirming, writhing.

41
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: I didn't Yeah, I was writhing. I didn't know. I

42
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: didn't recognize until I went back and watched the video,

43
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: how uncomfortable I looked it was. It was palpable.

44
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: I mean, that's worth a few bucks, isn't it?

45
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: Isn't it?

46
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 2: Tie?

47
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: It depends on your perspective. But yeah, we're doing We're

48
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: doing a lot of cool stuff out there for Ballers

49
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: dot Com. We'll continue talking about it throughout the course

50
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: of the show, but thus far, the reaction to it

51
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: has been far beyond anything we could have predicted, and

52
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: we're so soreful.

53
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 2: If you want, there's there's a couple of different tiers. Uh,

54
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: there's a Secret Benefactor tier, which, oh man, that's the

55
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 2: good stuff that the Secret Benefactor Tier. Also, if there's

56
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 2: somebody out there who wants to be a free video consultant,

Speaker 2: I am knee deep, and SD cards and concerns and editing.

59
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 2: It's it's actually pretty amazing how much we're doing. But man,

60
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,119
Speaker 2: oh man, just you know, if I could fire off

61
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,000

00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: slash solid verbal. If you are listening to us now,

72
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: don't forget what we're gonna get into our news here.

73
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: So the complexion of the weekend has changed dramatically since

74
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: we did the Wednesday show. But as you're watching Select

75
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: your Gord Saturday, don't forget to give us a phone

00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: eight eight three seven two two five one. Get your

78
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 1: reverbs in again. We can't guarantee we're gonna play them all,

79
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: but we do our best to cut them down into

80
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: like a three and a half four minute clip. Ryan

81
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: does an outstanding job of that. Oh yeah, and we

82
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 1: play them on Sundays. It's everyone's favorite segment, our reaction segment. Dan.

83
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I'm adding the reverb line to our Twitter profile,

84
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 2: the reverb phone number, just to leave no.

85
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: Doubt, leave no doubt herman run it up. All right,

86
00:04:53,360 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: let's get to news. We had real breaking news. I

87
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: don't want to do it the disservice of the falsetto

88
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: because then it's almost cartoonish. This is very serious what

89
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: we've got going on here. So postponements are not anything

90
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: new at this point, right. Florida Ellis's a pretty high

91
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: profile one, right, we previewed it. It wasn't until like

92
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: I think, Wednesday, naturally, after we released the last podcast,

93
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: that they made it official. Of course, there is a

94
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: bit of an ironic spin to it, seeing as how

95
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: Dan Mullen wanted a packed house at the swamp the

96
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: ultimate story of twenty twenty here, as this game is

97
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: going to be postponed, we're not going to get it.

98
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: We hope everyone's okay, who has it?

99
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, December twelfth, I think is the date, right, That's

100
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: where they're That's what I saw too. Yeah, Okay.

101
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: The bigger story though, I guess around the world of

102
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: college football is at Nick Saban and athletic director at

103
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 1: Alabama Greg Byrne both tested positive for the coronavirus. So

104
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 1: Nick Saban did an interview shortly thereafter. He was on

105
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: camera he said, look, you okay. It was a surprise

106
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: to me that I tested positive, but I got the

107
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: news and now I'm in isolation at home. This is

108
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: obviously a big story in like eight different levels, not

109
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: the least of which is perhaps the most prominent coach

110
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: in college football has contracted this disease which has upended

111
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: so much of our everyday lives here, not just here,

112
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: but around the world.

113
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

114
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: As a secondary point to that, this is kind of

115
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: on the eve generally speaking of the biggest game of

116
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: the year for the Alabama Crimson Tide against the George Bulldogs.

117
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: It's a matchup of number two versus number three. There

118
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: is obviously a ton of doubt now with regard to

119
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: how is this going to work for Alabama, Who's coaching

120
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: Are they going to come up with some setup for

121
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: Nick Saban so that he can still participate in the

122
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: game planning and the game day decision making. A lot,

123
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: I think remains to be seen at time of recording here,

124
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 1: but this is a big deal. Then it's a huge

125
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: to the line if you are interested in such things.

126
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: When we record, so when we saw the open it

127
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: was at four and a half by the time we

128
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: recorded the Wednesday preview show, it had gone up to

129
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: about six and a half. In the immediate aftermath of

130
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: this news becoming public, I saw it dipped all the

131
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: way down to three three and a half, So clearly

132
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: something that is weighing on on the minds of not

133
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: just college football fans and humans in general, but certainly

134
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: college football betters alike.

135
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, And I don't know if I've seen anything

136
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 2: indicating he is symptomatic on any level. So we're happy

137
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: about that if that is pointing to the fact that

138
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: he's feeling okay and just quarantining and hopefully he's going

139
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: to be fine throughout the process. Alabama was on the

140
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 2: road certainly the Florida situation. Scott Strickland, the Florida a

141
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: D pointed to the fact that travel may have caused

142
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: the issues that cropped up in Gainesville. So both of

143
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 2: these teams were on the road, and LSU was as well,

144
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: but Florida was the team with issues. Seems there. I

145
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 2: did see he'll be able to sort of run practice remotely,

146
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: but he will have no ability to communicate with anybody

147
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 2: on the team, coaches, players, whatever. For ninety minutes before

148
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: the game and the duration of the game. So okay,

149
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 2: unless that is skirted somehow through nefarious means, it's going

150
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: to be a sark Alabama game day experience, for better

151
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 2: or for worse, and sark with control. The Alabama offense

152
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 2: has been damn amazing record setting. Even so, Alabama's offense

153
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: in good hands. We'll see about the game day stuff,

154
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 2: will see about end game decision making for Alabama. But

155
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 2: I think the most important thing here is Nick Saban,

156
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 2: who was very publicly, you know, asking for people to

157
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 2: remain vigilant so the season could continue a pace. He

158
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 2: himself now came down with it, and I assume he

159
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: was as careful as can be, but it just sort

160
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 2: of goes to show that everybody's susceptible. So I hope

161
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: he's all right and hope everything is able to move

162
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 2: forward for Alabama. But huge, huge still came by the way,

163
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: this came on the heels of me saying SEC has

164
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: done a pretty good job. And I guess everybody does

165
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 2: a good job until they don't. And I guess if

166
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 2: there's any sort of silver lining to this that we've

167
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 2: had programs, you know, in the sun Belt and the

168
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 2: big twelve, but not enormous programs have cancelations. Florida LSU

169
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 2: and Nick Saban having their weekends canceled, postponed whatever hopefully

170
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 2: serves as a wake up call to not just the

171
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: teams that are playing to just stay vigilant, but also

172
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 2: the teams who are about to start and come back

173
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 2: and begin playing. No.

174
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: I think that's fair. I think that's fair, And you know,

175
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: we'll continue to watch this as it progresses. I am

176
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: not totally convinced that there won't be some sort of

177
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: like Oculus Go set up for Nick Saban where he's

178
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: on the sidelines virtually, or some sort of cryptic How.

179
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 2: Do you monitor something like that? That's the interesting thing

180
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 2: to me, Like how do you monitor Nobody set up

181
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 2: to monitor that? Come on, like Nick Saban could very

182
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 2: easily get patched through right to the headsets.

183
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick's online one. He's got some ideas. I guarantee

184
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: you that they can find some way if they want to.

185
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: I need to investigate more why he's unable Why in

186
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 1: trick kit.

187
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god, so Nick Saban. Okay, here's the way

188
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 2: you skirt it. Nick Saban does not communicate with the team.

189
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 2: Nick Saban has a plant in the stadium, he has

190
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 2: an in between or time.

191
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he's.

192
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 2: Not communicating with the team, He's communicating with somebody who's

193
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 2: communicating with the team.

194
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: Plausible deniability the other thought that crossed my mind. I

195
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: know they used to do this in a lot of

196
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: corporate settings. It was more of a proof of concept.

197
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: But you know, some companies like Cisco would offer like

198
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: a robot that somebody who was working remotely could control

199
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: and go through the hallways, and it was like, yes,

200
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: of course, your telepresence mm hmm. It wasn't always the

201
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: most effective thing, but it was kind of neat, and

202
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: why not have a robotic Saban. He's sort of a

203
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: robot anyway, wouldn't be that big a departure.

204
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. He Also if Sark wears a mask the entire

205
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 2: time or most of the crucial times, you won't be

206
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 2: able to read his lips. If he says something like Nick,

207
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 2: what should we do here? Because he'll be wearing a mask.

208
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: What about Nick Saban wearing a Sark mask? I think

209
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: then he and dangers like wear like I'm impossible style. Yeah,

210
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,719
Speaker 1: with the skin that peels, you.

211
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 2: Know, as somebody who is tested positive. I still don't

212
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 2: think that's all that thoughtful. No, Okay, be on the

213
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 2: sideline wearing a fake Sark skin mask.

214
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: Ty come on, Tye, let's I'm an idea guy, Dan,

215
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: this is what I do.

216
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: I understand, I understand.

217
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: I'm thinking more.

218
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 2: Maybe Nick Saban uses the Mission Impossible style voice changer.

219
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 2: So whatever voice is off the line, if the SEC

220
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 2: is monitoring the Alabama headset situation, that it's a voice

221
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 2: changer where it's just like, you know, a deeply British

222
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: communicator saying we should go for on four. Isn't it

223
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 2: something like that?

224
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: Right?

225
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 2: So that's the way, that's the way to me, obviously,

226
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 2: if Nick Saban is healthy and everybody's good to skirt

227
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 2: the issue.

228
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: Some other quick kidbits here before we get into our

229
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: undaunted Friday orbit. Yes, I saw that the NCAA has

230
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: granted an extra year of eligibility for all winter sport athletes,

231
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: and they are also avoiding the rule that you need

232
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: to be five hundred to qualify for a bowl game.

233
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's only seventy eight spots, I believe. So there

234
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 2: are years where there are reasons a team is five

235
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 2: and seven or four and eight and finish really strong

236
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: and become really interesting, and maybe they get a quarterback

237
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 2: back who wasn't there at the early part of the

238
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 2: season that maybe it's a major program. I don't know.

239
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: I remember what Nebraska a couple of years ago where

240
00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 2: they finished an interesting four and eight. That's a shirt

241
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: that we should make for Nebraska fans, an interesting foreign eight.

242
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, I guess it's a little bit

243
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 2: more of a wild Wild West Bowl scenario. Let's just

244
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 2: get through this week.

245
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: And speaking of which, Texas Tech has turned it over

246
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: to Henry Colomby and his wonderful head of hair Columbe.

247
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: However you say it.

248
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 2: I looked it up.

249
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: It's Colombie Colombie, Okay. He is taking over for British

250
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: comedy legend Alan Bowman.

251
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 2: Possibly COLUMBI. I know it's something like Colombo, but with

252
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 2: an eye.

253
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: He has completed seventy four percent of his passes thus

254
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: far for three touchdowns, and he's played pretty well, I

255
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 1: think in a relief effort when our boy, British comedy

256
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: legend Alan Bowman has been injured.

257
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he's interesting. Transferred from Utah State. I do

258
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,479
Speaker 2: have breaking news, TI like legit breaking news. Please Cincinnati,

259
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 2: Tulsa has been postponed. Okay for the athletic Cincinnati and

260
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: the athletic college football team, So one of those matches

261
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: I think I was looking forward to after Tulsa's win

262
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 2: against UCF and Cincinnati's strong start to the season. So

263
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 2: that's a bummer. Hopefully everybody's okay.

264
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: There, I said, undaunted Friday, Orbit at the top, Dan,

265
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: this is an honor of pluckiness, not just in college football,

266
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: but in our solar system, in our universe.

267
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: Is there a sound under us right now that I

268
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 2: don't know about it? There's okay, good, love it, great,

269
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 2: great job.

270
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: I'm giving a shout out right now to just some

271
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: of the pluckiness in the solar system and beyond. Let's

272
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: talk about mercury, Dan closest playing it to the Sun.

273
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: It is blasted constantly by the rays from the Sun,

274
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: but it keeps trucking hell when it goes in retrograde.

275
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: Solid wife Kate's talking about things just feeling strange, things

276
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: feeling a little bit off. Don't know if there's any

277
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: science there. There's definitely a believe there that mercury and

278
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: retrograde they kind of plucky, keeps on tratrograde.

279
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 2: Mean, I don't even I'm not smart.

280
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: It's when it spins the other way.

281
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 2: Oh okay, it's interesting.

282
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 1: Okay, how about Pluto? Is Pluto a planet? Well, it

283
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: used to be not anymore, got demoted then dwarf planet,

284
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: but then it got a flyby from one of our satellites,

285
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: got some pictures of it. It looks freaking awesome. It's

286
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: just out there doing its thing. Man doesn't care what

287
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: we think about it here on Earth.

288
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: I'm excited for you to figure out how to compare

289
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 2: excellent photographs of Pluto to an early college football performance.

290
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 2: And then we zip all the way down we get

291
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 2: that like the particle level. I got this from Chief

292
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 2: Astrover Buller John mm hmm, who's talking to me this

293
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 2: week about planet tesibols?

294
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. You know what that is? I didn't, not

295
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: even a little bit. They start off no bigger than

296
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: a grain of sand and a giant disc of other

297
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: grains circulating a star, sort of the violent young days

298
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: of the star. If you will, Okay, maybe they link

299
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: up with other grains. They get like a snowball thing going.

300
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: They get bigger and bigger and bigger. Maybe they get

301
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: blasted away by a proto star or something. But maybe

302
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: they just get bigger and bigger and bigger, and then

303
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: waym they get linked up with another even bigger Plantesmo.

304
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: Okay, in a way recruiting, I don't know if there's

305
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 2: like a real connection. I mean, they're recruiting grains coming

306
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 2: together with a common purpose.

307
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: I saw more of a conference realignment angle there. But oh,

308
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying.

309
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 2: It also works.

310
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: My point is this, there's pluckiness all around us, and

311
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: certainly within the world of college football. So what I've

312
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: got here is a list of seven teams that I

313
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: would like, at the end of this discussion to have

314
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: an official power ranking of pluckiness that we.

315
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 2: Can go find pluckiness.

316
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: For me, pluckiness is just gritty. I think you used

317
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 1: the word last time. They're gritty. I don't so much

318
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: equate it to being a disappointing team per se. But

319
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: let's say teams that perhaps were written off a little

320
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: too soon, that when we did our previews, maybe we

321
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 1: didn't take as seriously as we should have, and now

322
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: we find each and every week they're performing at a

323
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 1: level high enough to push their competition right you want

324
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: to talk about it interesting four and eight. A plucky

325
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: team is an interesting four and eight. They might lose

326
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 1: eight games, but they were in all eight or most

327
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: of those games anyway. They could have won a lot

328
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: of them one score games. A couple bad breaks here

329
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: and there that didn't go their way. But these are

330
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: teams that are probably better than their record would indicate.

331
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 2: So not full on ball of fire, but sparks are flying, correct.

332
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 2: There's embers embers afoot.

333
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: There are embers a foot. So let me start here. Okay,

334
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: let's start with an obvious one from what we saw

335
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: a week ago. Let's talk about ole Miss.

336
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: Okay.

337
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: Ole Miss obviously a new coach going into the year

338
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 1: with Liane Kiffin. They have changed up their offense and

339
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: they are running with an alarming tempo at this point.

340
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 1: Not to say they didn't do that before, but what

341
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 1: I saw against Alabama is like NASCAR level crazy, right.

342
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: Didn't play any defense, per our friend Roger Sherman, forty

343
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: one yards.

344
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 2: Of defense prevention.

345
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, resistance knob all the way down. They're one and two.

346
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: They scored thirty five points on Florida. They straight up

347
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: beat Kentucky on the road and They scored forty eight

348
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 1: against what we thought was a really good Alabama defense.

349
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 1: So they don't play much defense for themselves, but it's

350
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 1: apparent that they can score and they're fun to watch.

351
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 1: They're going to be hard out. How do you feel

352
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: about an ole Miss and what they've done so far

353
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: this year versus the Jerky Boys and Boston?

354
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 2: So I think Boston College better exemplifies your term of

355
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 2: plucky because Ole Miss does something already excellently. Ole Miss

356
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: doesn't have any like, they're no sparks, there are no

357
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 2: embers to ole Miss's offense. It's full on fireballs, shooting

358
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 2: in every direction. There's it's I'm not encouraged by ole

359
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 2: Miss as a full on growing as a full team

360
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 2: situation because their defense. There's nothing plucky about their defense.

361
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 2: So okay, they they fall more into half team, but

362
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 2: as a complete unit they are. They're plucky television. They're

363
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 2: exciting television. But I don't know if this full on

364
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 2: falls under grit or pluck because that implies to me

365
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 2: improving construction and I don't see that with all Miss

366
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 2: because the offense is already there.

367
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: Offense is there that they're a fun watch and you're

368
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: saying a better TV show than necessarily Plucky Team.

369
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 2: Right, We're not seeing incremental improvement with ole Miss. Right,

370
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 2: We're only seeing fireballs shooting in every direction. So we're

371
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 2: aimless comments. It would be my space comparison. Whereas some

372
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 2: of the other teams you listed, I feel like, Okay,

373
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 2: they did this week one and then this week two,

374
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 2: or they did this in twenty nineteen, and they've improved

375
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 2: this here, like, oh, this is what they did really

376
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 2: poorly in twenty nineteen, and they've already showed an ability

377
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: to improve on that in twenty twenty. That to me

378
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 2: is where the grit and pluck comes from.

379
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: All right, So let's start there and just based on

380
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: those two teams, we'll put BC as our top of

381
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: the pluckometer and ole Miss at the bottom. Just based

382
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: on that definition right now, Yes, let's see if we

383
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: can fill in the gaps.

384
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 2: So distance to the pluck sun. Boston College is mercury.

385
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: Ole Miss is currently the dwarf planet Pluto.

386
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: Right one pluconomical unit.

387
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 2: Yep, I'm right there with you.

388
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: Let's go to Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech is an interesting case.

389
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech.

390
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 2: We do we want to talk about Boston College.

391
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 1: Well, we're going to talk about Georgia Tech and Boston College.

392
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 1: Kind of gotcha in the same comparison here sok, same conference, right?

393
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: They do play each other next weekend, I believe so

394
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: we will get a battle of the plucky, a new rivalry.

395
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech is currently two and two. They knocked off

396
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: Florida State on the road week one is a big deal.

397
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: Sixteen thirteen got cream by UCF, lost the following week

398
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 1: to Syracuse, then had to buy and one this past week.

399
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: An earlier week game against Louisville forty six to twenty seven.

400
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: Big effort there. There is no doubt that they are

401
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 1: playing better. They are playing hard for Jeff Collins. We

402
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: saw that last year. The question then, is how do

403
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: you compare a team like Georgia Tech and their level

404
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 1: of pluck dan mm hmm to what we've seen out

405
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: of Boston College In year one, three and one beat

406
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: pitt on a goofy missed extra point. They were very

407
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: close against North Carolina at home a couple of weeks ago,

408
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 1: and I think they are taking some of us, many

409
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: of us by surprise. That year one new coach had

410
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of holes to fill new quarterback they are.

411
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: You know, say whatever you want about who they've beaten,

412
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 1: but three and one is three and one.

413
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think Boston College exhibits a little bit

414
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 2: more pluck than Georgia Tech, just because Tech, Georgia Tech,

415
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: excuse me, has been embarrassed this year already, Like losing

416
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 2: to Syracuse comfortably does not show it's not great a

417
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 2: tremendous amount of pluck. I know it is on the road,

418
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,719
Speaker 2: I know it's a strange year, but losing to the end,

419
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 2: I think they lost by almost twenty points to Syracuse,

420
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 2: so and losing big to UCF is not a big deal.

421
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 2: UCF is a very good program, but that loss to

422
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 2: Syracuse I think limits the pluck. Whereas Boston College right now,

423
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 2: with where their offense was and where their defense was

424
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 2: at times, it's sort of vacillated that one year they'll

425
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 2: have like a really interesting offense, you know then and

426
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 2: like I think last year their offense was fine, the

427
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,479
Speaker 2: defense was a nightmare, and obviously in years prior it

428
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 2: was flipped. And so the consistency, the early consistency, and

429
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 2: I think their offense is ahead of the defense early

430
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 2: on and I expect the defense to improve under Jeff Halfley,

431
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 2: but early on for Boston College, I think they get

432
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 2: that pluck because they're a little bit more competitive. They're

433
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 2: staying in games, they're you know, they're hanging around to

434
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 2: potentially take advantage of mistakes from the other team. So

435
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 2: I'm going to give the edge. And they can't run

436
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 2: the ball at all, not at all. But Fildjerkovic has

437
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 2: been largely good, if not a little inefficient, but largely good,

438
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 2: and the defense against the pass has been pretty interesting.

439
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: I think I agree with you, not just because I'm

440
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: all in on this whole jerky boys goodiness, right like

441
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: I think Georgia Tech is interesting. You look at the

442
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: teams they've beaten. Louisville plays no defense and Florida State's

443
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: kind of a mess. They've got a really tough stretch

444
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: coming up. The true test of their pluckiness will be

445
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 1: in their next five games.

446
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 2: Listen to this give me the give me the pluck

447
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 2: the pluck oh meter for Georgia Tech. If they are

448
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 2: truly plucky, they will either win or come up just

449
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 2: short against Team X, who is the bell Weather pluck.

450
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: I think we could use Pitt as the go by

451
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: here because bost Boston College has already played and beaten Pit.

452
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: But listen, listen to these next five games for Georgia Tech.

453
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: We're gonna get answer to this question pretty soon. Okay, Clemson,

454
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: which we know about, we previewed next week on the

455
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: road at Boston College, so we'll get a heads up

456
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 1: matchup there the week after against Notre Dame. That game

457
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: is in Atlanta. We'll see what they can do there. Yeah,

458
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: then a bye week, and then Pitt at home on

459
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: the road at Miami. Next five weeks are going to

460
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: tell us if they can hang with some of those

461
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: squads that might be inclined to put them above Boston College.

462
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: But so far I'm looking at what BC has done,

463
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: and BC has hung around. They beat Pitt, they were

464
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: close enough against North Carolina. They're gonna have opportunities here

465
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: in the next few weeks against Virginia Tech, against obviously

466
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech, Clemson, and Notre Dame as well. So right

467
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: now Edge goes to Boston College, but Tech's gonna have

468
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: a chance to usurp the Eagles.

469
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 2: I think it's Miami well, especially because what Georgia Tech

470
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 2: beat Miami last year, right, this year's Miami team has

471
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 2: shown interesting upside. I think that's the measuring stick. If

472
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech is again competitive with Miami what we believe

473
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 2: to be an improved Miami team and improved Georgia Tech team.

474
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: That to me, even if they lose twenty seven to

475
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 2: twenty four, or even if they know if they win

476
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: an ugly fashion, whatever the case, PITT does not necessarily

477
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,719
Speaker 2: have their act together. I don't think we'll find out

478
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 2: more about PITT Miami. I suppose this weekend. So all

479
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 2: these sort of proxy measurements, but I'm looking at Georgia

480
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: Tech Miami as a measuring stick to see. Okay, this

481
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 2: is where Georgia Tech is. If they lose thirty eight

482
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 2: to ten, that's where they are. I know the game's

483
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 2: at Miami, I believe, so PITT to me is winnable,

484
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 2: whereas Miami doesn't seem on that level yet.

485
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: A new challenger has emerged in the form of Kansas State. Okay,

486
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 1: Kansas State to me when I put this list together

487
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: was I thought the odds on number one in the

488
00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: pluck Oometer. And it's not just because they beat Oklahoma.

489
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: In Texas Tech and TCU. Obviously they lost Week one

490
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 1: in Arkansas State. We're just gonna like close their eyes in.

491
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 2: That gloss undefeated, big twelve Kansas State.

492
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right. But I don't think there's any

493
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 1: denying the fact that this is already a way better

494
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 1: performance from k State in twenty twenty that we expected.

495
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: This was a team we talked a lot about them

496
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,640
Speaker 1: taking a huge step back, and in the early going

497
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,959
Speaker 1: they've been very good. Now they lost their quarterback. They

498
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: lost their quarterback, which in a sense is going to

499
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: give us an even better gauge of pluckiness because they're

500
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: not going to be able to rely on that veteran

501
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: leadership from Skyler Thompson to keep the offense hit it.

502
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: They're going to have to game plan around that void.

503
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: So we know that they're three and one, they're undefeated

504
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: in conference, they've got a game coming up next week.

505
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: They're off this week, but they've got a game coming

506
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: up next week against Kansas which I would expect them

507
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: to win handly. After that, though, then it starts to

508
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 1: get dicey because they close out their final five games

509
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: are at West Virginia, which who knows West Virginia. We

510
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: could maybe talk about them, Oklahoma State, Iowa State, Baylor

511
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: in Texas. Probably not as vicious a closing slate as

512
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,879
Speaker 1: we thought given where Texas is at, but nonetheless, at

513
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: least in terms of projected win probability, they are fair

514
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: to lose all those football games. So where do we

515
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: stand on k State?

516
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 2: I believe they scored one offensive touchdown against TCU, They

517
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 2: had a couple of field goals in a pick six.

518
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 2: So the pluckiness place Matt has been set tie the

519
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 2: table for an interesting, gritty, plucky season with Kansas State,

520
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 2: especially with now I guess Deuce Fawn the face of

521
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 2: that offense with Skyler Thompson out, and I don't think

522
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 2: the passing game is going to be all that interesting.

523
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 2: I think the test for Kansas State moving forward now

524
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: with this freshman quarterback is, I guess you gotta be Baylor.

525
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 2: I mean, you gotta beat Kansas. You have to beat

526
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 2: Kansas no matter who's playing quarterback for you. Maybe it's

527
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 2: wet West Virginia on the road. You give them a

528
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Kansas State's off this week, you get

529
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 2: a little bit, you get your feet wet a little

530
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 2: bit more against Kansas at West Virginia is the true

531
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 2: pluck test for Kansas State moving forward, because that's an

532
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: improved West Virginia team with a really interesting defense. I mean,

533
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: we can talk about West Virginian pluckiness is like a bonus.

534
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 2: I guess that's the pluck test to me, because if

535
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: Kansas State can't move the ball forward, if they can't

536
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 2: generate more than one offensive touchdown against an Okay to

537
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 2: pretty good TCU team, then they.

538
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 1: Might be bad. Yeah, they might be. I hope not.

539
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 2: They might be.

540
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: See what, Well, West Virginia is an interesting game. Iowa

541
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: States to me even a little bit more interesting. It's

542
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: also on the road. Iowa State's another team that is

543
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 1: so that's.

544
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 2: The class of the Big twelve though, ty don't that's.

545
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: Fair fair enough, But it's interesting because because Iowa State

546
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: is sort of like a graduate of the pluck ometer. True,

547
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 1: just saying a little bit of symmetry there. Okay, are

548
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: we content to put Kase State above Boston College?

549
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 2: Are we content to put Kase State above Boston College pluck? Yes,

550
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 2: in terms of pluckiness, I think so because they pluckily

551
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 2: beat Oklahoma and even with a different quarterback. You got

552
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 2: to give credit where it's due, and that was a

553
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 2: that was a win by a team not nearly as

554
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 2: talented as the team they beat.

555
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: Where do we stand on Arkansas? Now?

556
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 2: How I have Arkansas thoughtstyle?

557
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: Arkansas lost big in their first game to Georgia. But

558
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: you know, new coach at Arkansas and it's Georgia.

559
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 2: And they were in that game. It was an ugly

560
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 2: like first half of that game. Now that counts as

561
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 2: pluck uggling up something.

562
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: A week after that, they're on the road. They're going

563
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: against the Mississippi State team that everyone's written into the

564
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: College Football Playoff. Absolutely after a monstrous showing. But Kja

565
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: Costello and Mike Leach in year one of the air

566
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: raid and they win twenty one to fourteen, really good

567
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: defensive effort. Now folks are like, hey, this is a

568
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: great win for Arkansas. They haven't won an SEC game

569
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: in three years. What do they do? They go on

570
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 1: the road the next week against Auburn. Now we can

571
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: say whatever we want about Auburn, but Auburn's got more

572
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: talent than Arkansas. There's there's no denying that. Now Arkansas

573
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: could have won that game. They lost thirty to twenty eight.

574
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: It was a game they were in. It was a

575
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: tight game, thirty to twenty eight. They've clearly got their

576
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: work cut out for them moving forward, right all miss

577
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: this week. They've got games against A and M, Tennessee, Florida, LSU, Missouri,

578
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: and Alabama left on the schedule. So I don't it

579
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: may be a little too soon to gauge where Arkansas

580
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: rates on this scale. Maybe the bell Weather is a

581
00:31:55,240 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: game against like A Tennessee. But what are you, Arkansas? Thoughts?

582
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 2: Felipe Franks is a real quarterback. It's been a while

583
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 2: since Arkansas has had a real quarterback. He succeeded downfield

584
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 2: against even though an Auburn defense that took a step

585
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 2: back this year a peers to have taken a step back.

586
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 2: Real quarterbacks count for a lot, Real coordinators count for

587
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 2: a lot. A real head coach that is inspiring, it seems.

588
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 2: I mean Arkansas was rushing the passer against against Auburn.

589
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 2: They were forcing mistakes. They were I like that running

590
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 2: back number twenty two. I think his last name is Smith,

591
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 2: Is it Trelon Treylon Smith? He was really good in

592
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 2: an all purpose role against Auburn. And watching the Hogs

593
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 2: early on this season feels like did you have an

594
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 2: amazing professor that you loved in college, which is like

595
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 2: taking his or her class made that subject matter come alive?

596
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 2: Had I definitely did.

597
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,719
Speaker 1: I had one professor because they kept changing my major

598
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: round and restructuring it where I liked the professor a lot,

599
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: and because of some of the clerical errors, I was

600
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: able to take the same class three times, which we

601
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: want to talk about. The pluckometer was, Yes, that was

602
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: a plucky decision.

603
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: Gaming the system is definitely plucky.

604
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: And then I've talked about Frank Clemente at Penn State before.

605
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: Anyone who's been the Penn State knows Frank Clemente. Yeah,

606
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: of Christ, everyone has that professor.

607
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 2: So watching the Hogs against Auburn made it seem like

608
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 2: somebody and I don't know if it's a coordinator thing.

609
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a Sam Pittman thing. I

610
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 2: don't know if it's just a general culture thing. Somebody

611
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 2: made learning and playing football fun for Arkansas. Somebody, like

612
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 2: if somebody made geometry fun, Like if you have a

613
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 2: terrible math teacher, it's the most dry experience in your life.

614
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 2: But if you make Isauci. These triangles come alve time. Yeah, yeah,

615
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: you're into it. You're into it. And there was something

616
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 2: about rushing the passer against Auburn, there was something about

617
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 2: misdirection on offense. Felipe Franks felt empowered to me, and

618
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 2: so that's what I'm into. In terms of pluck for Arkansas,

619
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 2: it seems like we're watching an overhaul that suddenly somebody's

620
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 2: schedule opened up with great professors, and so I don't know.

621
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 2: The bell Weather game, I suppose for Arkansas could be

622
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 2: an improved Miszoo team that's on the road later on

623
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,919
Speaker 2: in the year. But to make sense of everything, because

624
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 2: they should have come away from that Auburn game with

625
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,399
Speaker 2: a win, I think it's Tennessee. I think you're right.

626
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 2: I think if you're hanging around with Tennessee, certainly not

627
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 2: a complete team, certainly not a finished product. If you're

628
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 2: hanging around with Tennessee at home, I think that cements

629
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 2: that gritty plucky status.

630
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 1: I think the Arkansas win over Mississippi State and the

631
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 1: close loss against Auburn is enough to put them in

632
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: front of Georgia Tech, but not quite above BC.

633
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 2: Arkansas is going to have a fascinating year in terms

634
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 2: of they're the bell Weather right to see if, like

635
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 2: you know, Mississippi State, are they for real? They played Arkansas? Nope, Auburn.

636
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 2: Was it just a slow start and you know going

637
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 2: up against a heavyweight Georgia team and a decent Kentucky defense.

638
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: No, Auburn may have some issues.

639
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 2: Alburn needed a lot. So maybe it's not Arkansas looking

640
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 2: outside for measuring sticks. Maybe Arkansas themselves in the ultimate

641
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 2: Plucky reversal. Wow, they're the measuring stick.

642
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: This is like plucky naval gazing. So you want to

643
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 1: put Arkansas? We could put Arkansas too, just because of that.

644
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, all right, State on retrograde.

645
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: Ky State, Arkansas, Boston College, and Georgia Tech. We got

646
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: three other teams to two other teams on here. Excuse me?

647
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: Okay about South Carolina? How you feel about South Carolina?

648
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 2: Not amazing in terms of pluckiness.

649
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,919
Speaker 1: They're better than expected, at least for me, I've been saying,

650
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: that's who you expected. Yeah, I think the team as

651
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 1: a whole has been better than expected. The offense, you know,

652
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 1: from an efficiency standpoint, is certainly not there, right, it

653
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: is not there. But I have enjoyed watching the Colin

654
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 1: Hill to shy Smith connection.

655
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 2: Not against Florida. You probably didn't.

656
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: I guess there was some dropsies. Yeah, not against Florida.

657
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: I like what I saw to Kevin Harris in the

658
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,879
Speaker 1: running game. Yeah, I think that's important. I could use

659
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 1: shy Smith getting like longer passes right now, he's just

660
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 1: getting a lot of dink and dunk type stuff.

661
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I could use a little bit.

662
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: More of that. But I feel like they're gonna be

663
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 1: a tough out even if they're not necessarily beating teams

664
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: Like the game against Tennessee. I think I locked up

665
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 1: Tennessee and may have won that opening week game because

666
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:44,880
Speaker 1: it was like a three and a half spread and

667
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: they won by four. But they were way in that game,

668
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 1: much more than expected. The Florida game, we kind of

669
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: expected more of a blowout. They covered the spread there.

670
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: They covered the spread against Vanderbilt, if memory serves, are

671
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: probably undefeated. Cool, but they're gonna have chances here now

672
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: over the next few weeks against the likes of Auburn

673
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: and LSU, and there's a Georgia game at the end

674
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: of the year. I think, in looking at this schedule,

675
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,720
Speaker 1: the measuring stick for me is probably gonna be LSU

676
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 1: on the road. What can they do?

677
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't find Will musk Champ teams to fall

678
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 2: in that plucky, gritty category. The best of Will must

679
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:36,280
Speaker 2: Champ teams play good defense, but there is something about improving.

680
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 2: There's something about incremental change that I just never really

681
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 2: see from Will muss Champ teams. And so maybe that's

682
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 2: being more broad and vague about Florida and South Carolina combined,

683
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 2: but it doesn't fall under the like they were a

684
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 2: nightmare and now they're interesting. I don't know how interesting

685
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 2: I am. I might put them. I loaded up different galaxies. Tie.

686
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 2: Maybe they're a tadpole Galaxy team. Maybe they're a cartwheel galaxy.

687
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 2: Maybe they're a CAA eighty two galaxy type teams. Yeah,

688
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 2: the MESSAA eighty two the best.

689
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, he played for the Rangers. Yep, he did.

690
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 2: Indeed, there's also Messia sixty three.

691
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 1: Just he might be sixty three at this point, but continue.

692
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, there's nothing feel good about watching South Carolina

693
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 2: football under Will must Champ. And I get some good

694
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,240
Speaker 2: fields watching Boston College. I get some good fields watching

695
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 2: Arkansas because you like to see players figuring it out

696
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 2: and I suppose other than getting off the field against

697
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,439
Speaker 2: Tennessee on third down consistently, there's nothing I'm talking about

698
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 2: the defense in a good way. There's nothing I love

699
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 2: about watching South Carolina football. There's nothing that gives me

700
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 2: those warm fields, the warm fuzzies, And so I don't

701
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,879
Speaker 2: think it falls for me. I don't you know. I'm

702
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 2: gonna need to see more against a pretty good team.

703
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,720
Speaker 1: Okay, So if I understand Sea sixty three is my ruling,

704
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 1: Messa six. Okay, great, So does that translate then to

705
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: putting South Carolina.

706
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 2: Below Ole Miss correct? Yes, all right, so we've got

707
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:03,439
Speaker 2: a new something plucky out driving. There's something plucky about driving,

708
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 2: Nick Saban, absolutely bonkers.

709
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: Yes, final team, I've got final team. I've got here,

710
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: and I'm sure we could do this all day. Let's

711
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: talk about Miszoo. Now here's an important distinction that I

712
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:18,879
Speaker 1: need to get out of the way, right right out

713
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:24,280
Speaker 1: of the shoot. There is a certain grit and fire

714
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: and pluckiness to Eli Drinkwitz.

715
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, especially on signing day.

716
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially on signing days. So it's I think we

717
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 1: need to try and uh like separate decouple the two

718
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: for the purposes of this conversation, even if that culture

719
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: emanates down from the top, we're not talking about the coach.

720
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,319
Speaker 1: We're talking about the team. So what we've seen so

721
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: far from Miszoo has been like, uh, not great, Like

722
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 1: lost pretty badly to Alabama. Okay, fine, lost pretty badly

723
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: on the road at Tennessee. Okay, beat LSU in that

724
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: upset forty five to forty one. Yeah, they're off this week.

725
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: They're at Florida next week. Looking at their remaining schedule

726
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: at Florida, Kentucky, Georgia, South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt.

727
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a chance here against some really good teams,

728
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: uh in the SEC. I like their quarterback Connor Basilak.

729
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 1: I can't even say his name, Basil Basia Yeah, basilc Yeah,

730
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: I like him. And my sense is that Miszoo has

731
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,919
Speaker 1: an opportunity to improve throughout the course of the year.

732
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: So LSU is not where we thought they were going

733
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,240
Speaker 1: to be, And there are other teams in the schedule

734
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 1: who are kind of in a similar vein. I think

735
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: Missoo's going to improve. I think they're gonna play hard.

736
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 1: I think they're kind of like a low key top

737
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: three pluckiness style team here. I think that's what we're

738
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 1: gonna see moving forward. Now. Have they been there yet?

739
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: Probably not.

740
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you are looking at plucky futures with

741
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,400
Speaker 2: Miszoo a little bit, little bit twenty plus to Tennessee.

742
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 2: And I know what Connor Bezlac came in early in

743
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 2: relief of Sean Robinson. It just wasn't working out for

744
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 2: Robinson under center and the win against LSU. LSU might

745
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,319
Speaker 2: be another sort of measuring stick team, where like, if

746
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 2: you're not moving the ball against LSU, something is wrong

747
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 2: with your offense, which is a very strange way to

748
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,359
Speaker 2: interpret the Tigers this year, but it's I think it's

749
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,440
Speaker 2: based in reality a little bit. So I am great

750
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:41,359
Speaker 2: with assigning pluckiness to Connor Beslac to be sort of

751
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:45,280
Speaker 2: unsheathed with very little warning and to look very comfortable

752
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 2: and very good. But yeah, you're looking at plucky futures

753
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 2: because the defense is going to take a minute. I

754
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 2: think the defense in Columbia is going to take a minute.

755
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 2: But in terms of you know, getting receivers back, because

756
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 2: they were without receivers against LSU, So I think there

757
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 2: is that that gritty upside to Missoo. But you're right

758
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 2: about the schedule because you lose comfortably to Alabama. That's

759
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 2: not an indicator of anything, but it's what Florida on

760
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 2: the road Georgia. So the measuring it might be Arkansas,

761
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 2: it might be some sort of Ozarkian measuring bowl near

762
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 2: the end of the year. Uh Now, I think it's Kentucky.

763
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 2: Kentucky at home after Florida Halloween. If Miszoo wins or

764
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 2: is competitive in that game, and I know that specific

765
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: matchup is fraught with recent history drama, I think we

766
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,800
Speaker 2: have a good indicator of where Missouri stands. Maybe Missoo

767
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 2: is Earth Mars. Hmm, well, I think they're orbiting in

768
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,680
Speaker 2: relatively close proximity.

769
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: But that implies that things are getting better on Earth.

770
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 2: So what I mean Mars is the one with the

771
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 2: upside right to colonize, so Miszoo has the the upside.

772
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 2: So I'll say Missoo and Mars are entangled, romantically entangled.

773
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: Really Okay?

774
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

775
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 1: Cool? Well, so I've I'm gonna put Missoo in front

776
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: of Old miss because we're not sure if Old Miss

777
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 1: that makes in this category, but not in front of Georgia. Tech. Here.

778
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: Here is what I've got, and I think we can

779
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 1: agree upon this power rating. K State one, Arkansas two,

780
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: Boston College three, Georgia Tech four, Maszoo five. You've convinced me,

781
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: hm ol miss six, South Carolina seven.

782
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, South Carolina sixty three in the South Carolina sixty three. Yeah.

783
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 2: I really hope it's pronounced Messia, not miss you or

784
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 2: something stupid. Messia would would be the best.

785
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:50,520
Speaker 1: Mark message fifty nine.

786
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 2: By the way, there are other teams, and we're not

787
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 2: going to go into them, just because we don't want

788
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 2: this to be a two hour show, but there are

789
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,359
Speaker 2: other teams that are worth having a conversation about at

790
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 2: this point. Coastal Carolina, fresh off a win against Louisiana, undefeated.

791
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 2: You don't just get an internship at Grayce and McCall

792
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 2: without putting in the work. Ty, Yeah, yes, Coast Carolina,

793
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 2: I mean de facto Big twelve champs. With the win

794
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 2: over Louisiana, I stayed in the driver's seat.

795
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,439
Speaker 1: I don't know how many of our listeners out there

796
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 1: are fully up to speed with what's going on with

797
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina and the shot I know on the and

798
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 1: they're deeply teal pants. They're deeply teal pants, right. I know.

799
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: On the Discord server last night, folks were watching the

800
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina victory and getting all into them. So four

801
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: and oh, I think you gotta rank them. I to

802
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 1: rank them at this point, definite pla.

803
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,840
Speaker 2: Oklahoma State is able to win without a starting quarterback.

804
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 2: I think their defense eliminates them for luckiness because it's

805
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,440
Speaker 2: been so strong early on. But that's a conversation with

806
00:44:58,520 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 2: having I think the other case, by the way, for

807
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 2: Kansas State being strong is winning a game without your

808
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:04,280
Speaker 2: starting quarterback in one offensive touchdown.

809
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,760
Speaker 1: It's pretty plucky, I would agree.

810
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 2: If you're can accomplish that, that's interesting across other conferences.

811
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if I have somebody specific beyond that,

812
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 2: you mass pretty plucky for canceling and restarting a season

813
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 2: all in a short amount of time. I don't know

814
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 2: how good they're actually on the field. Uh, Otherwise, I

815
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 2: think that's all I have. I don't think there's another

816
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 2: clear case for pluckiness. Yeah, Texas A and M might

817
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 2: be pretty good. It's hard to be plucky this far

818
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 2: into a coaching tenure. That's what I think screwed up

819
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 2: screwed me up with South Carolina. Like. I like the

820
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,319
Speaker 2: Sam Pittman, I like the Lane Kiffin element. I like

821
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 2: the Jeff Halfley, I like the Jeff Collins element because

822
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 2: Plucky implies, you know, quick improvement, quick competitiveness, and I

823
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 2: don't know, we're in what you're three of Jimbo, We're

824
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 2: in you're what five six of? Will must Champ. Yeah,

825
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 2: I like that the early What I like the comparison

826
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,479
Speaker 2: to the Planet Testimal. Tie is that what it's called?

827
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,040
Speaker 1: I have no idea what that is?

828
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,879
Speaker 2: What did you what was the term the grain of sand?

829
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 1: Oh, planet testimal? You're right, Ve right, every.

830
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Planet Testimal. Yeah. I like that because those are young,

831
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:23,800
Speaker 2: gathering momentum situations. All right, So that's like like the

832
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 2: Chris climbing situation exactly.

Speaker 1: dot com is the address. You can also going out

841
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 1: to patreon dot com slash soliverbal for more information. Dan,

842
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 1: this is sort of a push of oars. Were very

843
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 1: excited about this. It is dominating kind of our our

844
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: thoughts at the moment. We're really trying to beef up

845
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: our offerings for the verballer hood.

846
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 2: My solid verbal Lab because of our Patreon launch and

847
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 2: because of all of the extra things we're doing. I've

848
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 2: got wires everywhere. You ever see Trent Reznor's studio, I

849
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 2: think so because he does soundtracks. He's got these giant

850
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 2: synthesizers and these giant boards with cables connecting like these

851
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 2: big I'm looking at analogue synthesizers where he's just creating sounds.

852
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 2: It's like that in here, but it's much more disorganized

853
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 2: with a lot less talent behind the boards. But I

854
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 2: would say equal levels of creative gumption. Just it has

855
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 2: to do with Grayson McCall and Skyler Thompson. So yeah,

856
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,279
Speaker 2: that's what we're doing. We're pouring. We're pouring many, many

857
00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 2: hours of the day into turning this this Patreon universe

858

Speaker 1: some of these local broadcasts. Sometimes my favorite is when

869
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: they go on either side, like the throwing thrill of victory,

870
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 1: agony of defeat. You get both sides of it, so

871
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,879
Speaker 1: it's it's cool stuff and would encourage you to check

00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:24,480
