You look 10 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 2: like you're raring to go, rare in to freaking go 11 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: over here. Ohio State against Michigan and fresh off of 12 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: ball yesterday, a healthy portion of ball on a black 13 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 2: Friday here. 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:49,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt about it. 15 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 4: How about how about Oregon knocking off Oregon State unnecessary win, 16 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 4: a big win. I've got an opportunity to see Oregon 17 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 4: State in person in Corvallis this season. That's a that's 18 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 4: an angry Beaver team. That's that's a group that Jonathan Smith, 19 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 4: we were talking about this a little bit last week, 20 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 4: has really got running and and Ouyungalil. 21 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 3: A decent season. 22 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 4: I think he's done a lot to revive his image 23 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 4: a year a year in Oregon State. But the Ducks Man, 24 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 4: that's a real football team, playing real good football on 25 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 4: both sides of the ball, holding them to seven points, 26 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 4: scoring thirty one. Bow Knicks looked great. That was probably 27 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 4: the highlight of the games or the slate that we 28 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 4: had on Friday. 29 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, and my bon Knicks Heisman ticket is one win away. 30 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 5: Maybe one win away. I think Oregon is a team 31 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 5: that maybe in a game against Georgia potentially in a 32 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 5: collegeable playoff, or one of those Big ten winners, or 33 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 5: perhaps Alabama, that number, that point spread would be a 34 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 5: little bit closer than I think some people might think. 35 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 5: I don't know exactly what the number would be, but 36 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 5: I can tell you that Oregon's probably going to be 37 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 5: a seven point favorite next week against Washington. And remember 38 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 5: Washington was favorite the first time around. So it is 39 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 5: an interesting Pac twelve road here as we get a 40 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 5: rematch of those two teams that played a thriller like 41 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 5: a month or two ago in Seattle, and we'll get 42 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 5: that rematch here in Vegas next Friday, and then the 43 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 5: rest of the picture will formulate. Today there's a big 44 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 5: ten contender still to be eliminated, and there's an ACC, 45 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 5: a couple of ACC games of note one especially that's 46 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 5: you know, Florida, Florida State. That's going to kind of 47 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 5: determine how that rest of the ACC picture shapes out. 48 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 5: But just an interesting, just an interesting week here as 49 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 5: we get ready for the final conference championship games next week. 50 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 2: Man, I'll tell you what the bo Knicks ticket, the 51 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: Heisman ticket right there, Jared, like you said, is oh 52 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: so close huge next week against Washington. That could be 53 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: Pennis Junior versus bow Knicks for the Heisman. It would 54 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: be beneficial if the Texas A and m Aggie show 55 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 2: up defensively against Jayden Daniels today just a little bit right, 56 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 2: like maybe hold them in check is a little bit 57 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 2: big argument, cause yeah, absolutely old. 58 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 5: Do you think it matters? 59 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: Though? Is the question? 60 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 6: Like? 61 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 5: If Oregon wins and Daniels throws for ten touchdown passes 62 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,119 Speaker 5: today and Oregon still wins next week, do you think 63 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 5: they give it to Daniels. 64 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: I don't know that they give it to him, but 65 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: it definitely matters. You know, if he just goes ballistic today, 66 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: I think it still will matter. 67 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 5: Daniel's overs today maybe so A. 68 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: And m sneakily pretty good defense, pretty good defense this season, 69 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 2: So I do think it matters. But man, it really 70 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 2: helps if you're backing either Pennix Junior or Bo Knicks, 71 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 2: whichever one comes out on top. If they shine and 72 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: Jaydon Daniels isn't in uniform, LSU has no opponent next week, 73 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: that absolutely helps your heisman. 74 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 4: Cause yeah, yeah, when we go back to the futures 75 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 4: and we start looking at some of these futures bets 76 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 4: we put in to start the college football season, one 77 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 4: of my regrets, well, I guess he can't even call 78 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 4: it regret, but looking back on that Jordan Travis, that 79 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 4: that heisman run absolutely that that is that is one 80 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 4: that was right there. 81 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I won't say, I won't. 82 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 4: Say I can't I regret it because you can't predict injuries. 83 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 4: But what a way for that to go down. And 84 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 4: most importantly, I feel for the athlete like Jordan Travis. 85 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 4: Things outside of his control, his schedule, his conference. You know, 86 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 4: I guess you could choose to go to a bigger school, 87 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 4: so you know, you could rewind the clock three years 88 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 4: ago when he decided. But outside of some of the 89 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 4: things he can't control. The things he could control, he 90 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 4: was doing an incredible job with and that's an undefeated 91 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 4: team and so you know, it's just one of those 92 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 4: things where the the narrative would have put so much 93 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 4: focus on an undefeated Florida State team with a Heisman 94 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 4: candidate as a quarterback that I'm curious if, almost as 95 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 4: a consolation prize, if Florida State wasn't going to be 96 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 4: welcome to the CFP and play and be one of 97 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 4: the top four teams and it was based on strength 98 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 4: of schedule, if they would have given Jordan Travis to Heisman. 99 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 4: And I'm not saying given it to him because obviously 100 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 4: it's voted on, but you know what I mean, Like, 101 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 4: I wonder if that would have curried him some more 102 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 4: favor as almost like a consolation prize to the program 103 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 4: and to the athlete, saying like, hey, you did everything 104 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 4: you could. Here's here's the next best thing, Florida State. 105 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 4: You get to walk away with a Heisman winner. 106 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 107 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 5: I don't think that's how the Heisman works. No, No, 108 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 5: I don't know it's a consolation prize. Well, here's what 109 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 5: I do think about this season with Florida State, especially, 110 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 5: they're kind of the new blood right, Like every year 111 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 5: there's like the more things it's wild to fathom this, 112 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 5: but this is the last week the record season, like 113 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 5: Regan season's over, and it's every year like the more 114 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 5: things change, the more things stay the same. It's Georgia 115 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 5: and Alabama playing. One of those teams is gonna go 116 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 5: maybe both teams are gonna go to the playoff. Like 117 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 5: that seems like every year, constant the Big Ten has 118 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 5: their winner. Constant, we'll get the Higo State Michigan winner, 119 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 5: and we'll flash forward and say that that team will 120 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 5: beat Iowa next week and they'll go to the playoff. 121 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 5: Oregon and Florida State are kind of the new bloods, 122 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 5: right or Washington that's kind of the new bloods. We 123 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 5: haven't seen one of those teams in the playoff yet, 124 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 5: so there's excitement around that anytime you get one of 125 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 5: those teams that hasn't made a trip recently. I know 126 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 5: Washington went a few years back, got their butts kicked 127 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 5: by Bama. Florida State went few years back and won 128 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 5: it with Winston, but recently we haven't seen those teams 129 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 5: in so it's exciting to see new blood and new 130 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 5: new you know players that we haven't seen it, compete 131 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 5: for the count role, playoff, new coaches, how they handle 132 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 5: the moment. And I think that's what makes this year 133 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 5: exciting because we'll get the Oregon Washington winner and I 134 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 5: think we're gonna rin. I think Florida State's gonna rally 135 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 5: around Rodamaker today. I think they're gonna beat Florida. And 136 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 5: then I think I think they have enough to get 137 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 5: through the a SEC Championship, and I hope the committee 138 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 5: does the right thing and puts them in and not 139 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 5: downgrade them because of Travis being out. Obviously, without Travis, 140 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 5: they're not a top four team, but the resume still 141 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 5: speaks for itself up to this point. So again, the 142 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 5: last week of the record, weird things happen, But I 143 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 5: think I feel confident in saying the five slash six 144 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 5: teams with the big ten B and the asterisks there 145 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 5: that we're gonna see in in the playoff and giddy up, baby. 146 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 2: It was wild yesterday too, you know, just the cliffs 147 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: notes little bullet point version here. Oklahoma scores sixty nine 148 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: points against TCU is like holy, the lowest total this 149 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 2: century in the Iowa. Nebraska going under it was twenty 150 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 2: five and a half under still hits at thirteen. 151 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 3: I don't get it. That's the crazy low enough. 152 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 5: I think twenty three guys reason number maybe. 153 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: Twenty five, twenty three and a hook. 154 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 4: I heard twenty three would have pushed. 155 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 5: But like that's like, that's the we have reached. We 156 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 5: finally reached the floor. Right. It opened at like thirty 157 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 5: and that all the way down now we's seen it 158 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 5: twenty three. 159 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: How about Missouri too, top ten team. They crush Arkansas 160 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: forty eight to fourteen yesterday, your Nitney Lions with a 161 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: shutout TUFE Michigan State. 162 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 5: Of course, they cover their big favorites. They're bullies. 163 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: They almost hit the over by themselves. Yeah, forty two 164 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 2: to nothing. What a what a season for Sparti man, 165 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 2: and then the night cap. I'm so impressed, not only 166 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: with bow Knicks, but Oregon's defense man. Oregon State has 167 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: been able to run it on everybody this season, and 168 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: Oregon was like, we're gonna give you fifty three yards rushing. Wow, 169 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: that's it, that's all you get. Rely on dju if 170 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: he can take it to the Promised Land. God bless you. 171 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 2: Fifty three yards giving up on the ground. That's sensational 172 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 2: from the Ducks team. 173 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 4: That's a real, real run back in Damian Martinez, like 174 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 4: a real dude, and Oregon was able to shut him 175 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 4: down and anything they tried really didn't work. Planned QB runs, 176 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 4: you know, DJU trying to do things on his own 177 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 4: on broken pass plays. It just it just all kind 178 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 4: of fell apart from him. And that's exactly how I'd 179 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 4: scheme it up. If I had the guys to do it, 180 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 4: and I was playing against an Oregon State I would say, Okay, 181 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 4: let's let ouiyungala La beat us with her with his arm. 182 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,599 Speaker 4: If he can, you know, let's see him do it that. 183 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 4: If I'm a defensive coordinator and I've got some guys 184 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 4: like Oregon does, I've got some guys to play with, 185 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 4: I'm going to make my game plan to shut down 186 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 4: the run game. 187 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: And they did that. 188 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 4: The Oregon State Beavers were only able to put sixty 189 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 4: three excuse me, fifty three rushing yards up on the Ducks, 190 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 4: and that was an incredible performance by their defense. And yeah, 191 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 4: it's just another feather in the hat for bow Nicks 192 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 4: and Dan Lanning and an Oregon team with the real 193 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 4: shot to win it all. 194 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 5: If this is how if it's gonna play out the 195 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 5: way I expected to play out, this is how I think. 196 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 5: I this is how I'd like to see a play out. 197 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 5: I'd like to see the Ohio State Michigan winner be 198 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 5: the two seed, right I think I think Georgia winning 199 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 5: locks up the one. But I'm thinking to myself, if 200 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 5: Alabama wins that game, is Georgia the three or the four? 201 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 5: Because let's be honest, Georgia is in no matter what, guys, 202 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 5: I don't know. 203 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: They might be the five. 204 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 3: I don't know, Okay, okay. 205 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if they're in if they lose Tobama 206 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 2: because there's just so much. 207 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 5: I think. How they lose matters, how they lose matters. 208 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 5: If it's thirty one to twenty eight, George's in. If 209 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 5: it's thirty one to ten, maybe not. But I would 210 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 5: really like to see Oregon not have to be the 211 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 5: you know, the SEC sacrifice in the in the semis 212 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 5: like flash forwarding and expecting Oregon being favored next week 213 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 5: if they win that game, and even if they don't 214 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 5: win it with margin, let's say they just win by 215 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 5: field goal. I'm hoping that it's enough to leapfrog them 216 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 5: over Florida State because I think the committee might downgrade 217 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 5: Florida State because of the Travis thing. And if they 218 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 5: do get in, they'll be the four even if they 219 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 5: blow out whoever in the AC title. But I'd like 220 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 5: to see Oregon play the Big ten winner in the semis. 221 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 5: I think that would be a fantastic semi final. It 222 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 5: would remind me of the like Oregon's like the TCU 223 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 5: of last year. 224 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 3: Right. 225 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 5: I think they're better though than TCU, so I think 226 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 5: that's what makes the semis and a potential game against 227 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 5: Georgia Alabama very interesting. Organ's legit, like top ten on 228 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 5: both ends, like they are legit, and I don't think 229 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 5: enough people realize how good they might be because they 230 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 5: haven't been in the playoff all year. So really interesting 231 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 5: situation with the Ducks. They haven't been in the top 232 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 5: four all season, but I think they might be the 233 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 5: best team of the non secs, which is wild to think. 234 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 5: As we move forward to next week. 235 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: They very well could be. It's funny this time of year, 236 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 2: just without fail clockwork, it's these what if nightmare chaotic 237 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 2: scenarios like what if Bama wins and what if this 238 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 2: happens and what and almost every year I roll my 239 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 2: eyes and I'm like, guys, it's not gonna be nearly 240 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: as chaotic as it could be. Remember this season, though, 241 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 2: this season, I feel is different. I think they're gonna 242 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 2: be one, maybe two teams with playoff worthy resumes that 243 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: don't get into the playoff. 244 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 5: Texas is the one. I think that is they have 245 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 5: no I don't think they can get in. 246 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 2: That's look at their resumes. I know you though, man 247 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 2: is I know we get a little arch man in glimpse. 248 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: Last night they put up fifty seven on Texas Tech. 249 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: Their one blemish is the last second win from Dylan 250 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,359 Speaker 2: Gabriel and Oklahoma. 251 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 3: That's it. 252 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 2: It's their only blemish and that might keep them out. 253 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: It's crazy. 254 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 5: Oklahoma hasn't been good. 255 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 4: Just remember those those officials. They're hired by the NCAA 256 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 4: so you can you can get outcomes you want. It's 257 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 4: pretty easy to blow the whistle and throw flat. You 258 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 4: can find holding on every single play. Somebody's holding. That's 259 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 4: all I'm saying. 260 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 5: Rich you were never holding, You never. 261 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 4: Held, Okay, okay, Jared Jared honestly true admission here.

When you think of 334 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 2: it from that perspective, it just makes this matchup that 335 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: much bigger on top of the bitter rivalry that it is. 336 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 2: Like I say, high freaking stakes today, gentlemen. 337 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 4: No doubt, no doubt.

So if you're waiting until 339 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 4: the Hawkeys take on one of these two teams, you're 340 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 4: you're doing the wrong thing. This is it, This is 341 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 4: the whole show. This is the biggest game of the 342 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 4: regular season. Two undefeated teams facing off each other each 343 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 4: other couldn't be juicier. And then on top of it, 344 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 4: there's controversy. So if you're you're more narrative driven than 345 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 4: you are football driven. Harbaugh's not gonna be patrolling the 346 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 4: sideline and will that tilt things in favor of Ohio 347 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 4: State today as a result? I mean, this is just 348 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 4: sink your teeth in. This is the best football burger 349 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 4: we got to eat this entire football season. It served 350 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 4: up Week thirteen. 351 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, the history here says Michigan is a chance to 352 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 5: do something they haven't done since the last time they 353 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 5: won the national title. So again, you know, it all 354 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 5: comes full circle, right. They haven't won three straight in 355 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 5: this series since ninety seven, which is the last time 356 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 5: they won the national title. They win today, they'll win 357 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 5: their third straight over at their bitter rival. The total 358 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 5: is intriguing here, and I bet the under at forty 359 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 5: seven a little earlier in the week. It's kind of 360 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 5: still sitting in that range my guess as we close 361 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 5: around forty six. But we've had nine straight overs in 362 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 5: this series, so ter, you know, I bet the under. 363 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 5: This is the first time in about six years we've 364 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 5: had a total in the forties. So again, this game 365 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 5: will look and feel very different than what we've seen 366 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 5: in recent form, where it was last year five touchdowns 367 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 5: of forty or more yards in this game. I mean, 368 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 5: it was up and down the field all game long. 369 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 5: I don't think that's the case here. I think Michigan's 370 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 5: offense is a real red flag. JJ McCarthy. Maybe he hurt, 371 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 5: Maybe he's hurt, maybe he's just bad. He's completed twelve 372 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 5: passes in the last six quarters. He hasn't been a 373 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 5: touchdown pass in almost a month. And on Ohio State's 374 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 5: offensive side, when they've managed up this year. You know, Brian, 375 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 5: you remember that game against Notre Dame. We remember the 376 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 5: game against Penn State. They really struggled to move it, 377 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 5: couldn't run it. So I don't really know where the 378 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 5: offense is gonna come from here. Some quarterback's gonna have 379 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 5: to make some fantastic plays. But which one do you trust? 380 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 5: McCord or McCarthy. Frankly, I don't trust either of them. 381 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear what you're saying. McCord has been much 382 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 2: better as of late than McCarthy has. Like you said, Jared, 383 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 2: like this guy hasn't thrown a touchdown pass in the 384 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 2: last three games. He didn't throw a pass in the 385 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 2: second half against Enn State. And it wasn't just this 386 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: dominant Michigan running game against Penn State, that wasn't the case. 387 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 2: They just couldn't protect JJ McCarthy and their best bet 388 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: was just to pound the rock. That blows my mind. 389 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 3: What was it? 390 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: Thirty two rushing attempts in the second half, only one 391 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 2: pass play and there was a penalty he that negated 392 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 2: the play technically six quarters? 393 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 5: What is this air force? 394 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 2: I know, I know it's crazy, and yet Jaje. You 395 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 2: look at Kyle McCord on the other side. Eight passing touchdowns, 396 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 2: one interception the last three games. Marvin Harrison Junior is 397 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 2: just unbelievable. So you know, when I'm looking at this matchup, 398 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 2: I hear you on the total while you're looking to 399 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: the under there, Jared, I look at grabbing the points. 400 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 2: This Michigan offense hasn't been the same the last couple 401 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 2: of games with no Jim Harbaugh. I don't see them 402 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 2: doing major damage today against Ohio State. I'm going to 403 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: scoop those points and take the three in the hook, Okay. 404 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 5: Kind of going by bye here from the last ten 405 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 5: minutes or so. 406 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: I'll take the three. Yeah, I'll scoop. 407 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 5: But it seems like the market is agreeing with your 408 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 5: sentiment based off of the move this morning. 409 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, what's wild about this matchup? 410 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 4: If you really think about college football football, you know, 411 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 4: professional football, high school football, it does no matter what 412 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 4: level we're talking about. Both of the quarterbacks on eleven 413 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 4: to zero football teams that can buy for a national 414 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 4: championship run, neither of them have a real Heisman candidate 415 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 4: at quarterback. 416 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 3: Like JJ McCarthy. I'm sorry, it's not winning it. 417 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 4: You can't have those two games like you mentioned, the 418 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 4: second half against Penn State and then going non existent 419 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 4: against Maryland virtually and getting the win there in a 420 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 4: close game against the Turps, and then com McCord is 421 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 4: a top fifty quarterback, I mean top forty. 422 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 3: Maybe, Like he's good, he's not great. 423 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 4: He's never been in the Heisman candidate conversation. So it's 424 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 4: just interesting. It's it truly does feel like a Big 425 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 4: ten battle like this is. This game is gonna be 426 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 4: won by playing great defense and possessing the ball. 427 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 3: It is very much so throwback. 428 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, it really is. And it McCord like, it's kind 429 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 5: of funny because the efficiency numbers tell me McCord is 430 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 5: a top ten QB and QB, but the eye tests 431 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 5: not even close. And then if you go at layer deeper, 432 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 5: if you remove two plays, which is the dropped interception 433 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 5: late against Notre Dame and the defensive score against Penn 434 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 5: State that was called back because of a holding, a 435 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 5: very controversial holding, those two plays against their two biggest wins, 436 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 5: Notre Dame in Ohio State. I mean, the whole narrative 437 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 5: is different on Kyle McCord. So I think you look 438 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 5: at what Ohio State has had CJ. Stroud justin fields, 439 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 5: even like A JT. Barrett, I think are ahead of 440 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 5: where McCord was at this stage. And I again that's 441 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 5: why I really like the under here, because I just 442 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 5: I don't see it with McCord. Ohio State's weapons are healthy. 443 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 5: Henderson looked good last week against Minnesota, and Harrison's a 444 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 5: stud and a BUKA, and Stover looked healthy. My guess 445 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 5: is they tried to scheme out Harrison Easier said than done. 446 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,239 Speaker 5: But for Michigan's offense, Roman Wilson got hurt last week 447 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 5: against Maryland. He is like the only receiver they have, 448 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 5: and their left tackle got banged up. They're all supposed 449 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 5: to play today. I'm sure they all will play biggest game. 450 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 5: Of the year. But what do they have? And then 451 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 5: Jim Knowles on the other side, man all State's defense 452 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 5: might they might be the best defense in the country. 453 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 5: Like that scheme has taken some time. This is the 454 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 5: second year of Jim Knowles. That scheme is legit. And 455 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 5: they don't have like a stud pat Like, they don't 456 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 5: have like a number one pick type guy. It's very 457 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 5: much scheme and I would be surprised if someone got 458 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 5: into the thirties today in this game. 459 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 2: Well hey, and think about this too, where going back 460 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 2: to the Penn State game, the running game was able 461 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 2: to take pressure off of JJ McCarthy. Let's say that's 462 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 2: not the case today. Yeah, right, Imagine if it's like 463 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 2: Oregon last night and they're like, we're giving you fifty 464 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,679 Speaker 2: three yards rushing, go ahead and try to beat us 465 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,719 Speaker 2: with dju yep, right. What if Ohio State is able 466 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: to say that today? That's the question to me, how 467 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 2: much can Blake Korum and Donovan Edwards how much can 468 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 2: they do in the running game to take pressure off 469 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 2: of JJ McCarthy, Because if they can't do that and 470 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 2: there's more pressure on him in that passing attack, I 471 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 2: mean that very well could be advantage Ohio State if 472 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 2: that's the only way Michigan can really run, really move 473 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 2: the ball. So that's something to watch for in the matchup. 474 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 2: He We'll have much more on this as we go 475 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 2: through the morning, but right now we've got a healthy 476 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 2: dose of Isaac Loewen Krown. Okay, this is like warm ups. 477 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 2: This is like Thanksgiving lunch slash dinner all in one. 478 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 2: It's the best of both worlds. I love how you doing. 479 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,239 Speaker 9: I am doing great, Fellows, Thank you so much. We 480 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 9: are precisely two hours and forty two minutes away now 481 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 9: from kickoff.

Seventh rank Texas blew out Texas 488 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 9: Tech fifty seven to seven, and number eleven Penn State 489 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 9: whated Michigan State forty two to nothing. We've got some 490 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 9: fresh NFL news regarding yesterday's Jets Dolphins game.

It 525 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 2: starts at noon Eastern time. And Jaden Daniels, he's been 526 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 2: sensational this season, the LSU quarterback. Can he keep it going? 527 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: Can he have one more impressive Heisman worthy performance? He's 528 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 2: certainly in the conversation, will be there in New York City, 529 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: But does he have enough to win it when he's 530 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 2: not gonna be playing next week and you've got bo 531 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 2: Nix and Michael Pennix Junior on the same field. This 532 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 2: Texas A and M defense has quietly been pretty good. 533 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: You only give up nineteen point five points per game. 534 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: They've been a decent unit throughout the season. So I 535 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 2: want to see if Jaden Daniels can carve him up 536 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 2: like carved up almost everybody else this season. 537 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 538 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 4: Look, I mean, good defense can be had, and Jaden 539 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 4: Daniels is definitely one of those quarterbacks who could get 540 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 4: after even the most talented of defenses in college football. 541 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 3: He's a special talent. 542 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 4: However, I don't know about you, guys, but I don't 543 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 4: feel good about giving him much of a chance to 544 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 4: win the Heisman if his team isn't going to amount 545 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 4: to very much in the postseason of college football. It's 546 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 4: a very narrative driven award. We're just talking about Jordan Travis, 547 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 4: and I don't know if you can really convince enough 548 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 4: voters that a team that has three losses to their 549 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 4: name can have a quarterback that qualifies really for this award. 550 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 4: That's just the way it is. You know, Hall of 551 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 4: famers in all sports, whether we're talking football or hockey 552 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 4: or basketball, they're filled with winners. You know, Heisman's they're 553 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 4: all winners. Like that is one commonality that all voters 554 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 4: in all of these different you know, greatness criterias agree 555 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 4: on you have to be a winner to be up 556 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 4: for this award, and I don't think three losses I really. 557 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 3: Allows you to qualify. Whether that's fair or not, that's 558 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 3: the way it's been. 559 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 5: I agree. I think it's almost like McCarthy's gonna be 560 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 5: the finalist and there's nothing like there. The glass ceiling 561 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 5: is squarely in place, like he is just going to 562 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 5: New York and it's gonna be a fun trip and 563 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 5: he's gonna get a ton of attention and people are 564 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 5: gonna talk about the draft and the NFL and and 565 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 5: and all that stuff. I'm sure in the next step. 566 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 5: I don't Actually I don't know if he's he's eligible 567 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 5: to this third year, right. I think he is eligible 568 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 5: to leave. So my guesses will go to the NFL 569 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 5: next year and that'll be his experience. Because the winner 570 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 5: of the PAC twelve championship game deserves I have made 571 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 5: that case. I did a video for the MGM. I 572 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 5: do the videos every week. 573 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 3: I did it. 574 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 5: It was like back in October. It was the week 575 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 5: after Oregon loss to Washington, and I said, the winner 576 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 5: of the PAC twelve title deserves to be the Heisman 577 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 5: Trophy winner this year because it's the conference with the 578 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 5: best quarterbacks, and one of those teams I hope will 579 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 5: do enough to make it to the Collegeable Playoff and 580 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 5: that quarterback deserves to be the Heisman because it's difficult 581 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 5: to navigate through what I think has been a gault. 582 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 5: I mean, I know the Pac twelve has historically not 583 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 5: been this way but over the last decade or so. 584 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 5: But this year, I mean, they had really, until about 585 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 5: a month ago, three teams that were going for the 586 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 5: Collegeable Playoff USC Oregon, Washington, and even Oregon stayed at 587 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 5: an outside shot until they kind of tripped up. So 588 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 5: that Pac twelve is a gauntlet this year of quarterbacks, 589 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 5: and it's a quarterback award. So unless we got just 590 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 5: something absurd from a Marvin Harrison or a Blake Koram, 591 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 5: and we didn't, I know, Marvin had a great year, 592 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 5: but he had three catches for thirty yards last week, 593 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 5: and in his biggest games of the year for Ohio State, 594 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 5: he has not played exceptionally well. So I just don't 595 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:54,959 Speaker 5: understand that you can give it to him. And the 596 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 5: Michigan running backs have have had, you know, bad injuries, 597 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 5: and not great seasons. So yeah, this is this is 598 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 5: a PAC twelve award and Daniels is kind of the 599 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 5: side show that you know comes for the stats, but 600 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 5: I think the winning of Oregon or Washington deserve it. Well. 601 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 2: It's one of these deals where the comparison has been 602 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 2: drawn to Lamar Jackson when he won the Heisman, Louisville 603 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 2: lost three games, and so that's the common tie in 604 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 2: with Jadon Daniels in LSU. And you go back to 605 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: that year in twenty sixteen and it's obscene, it's absurd 606 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:32,719 Speaker 2: what Lamar was able to do. He threw for what, 607 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 2: let's see, thirty touchdowns and nine interceptions, but running the ball, 608 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 2: he rushed for over fifteen hundred yards and twenty one touchdown. 609 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 5: See, Daniels isn't even close to those numbers. He's at 610 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 5: ONY ten. So that's why you know, like it hasn't 611 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 5: been that crazy for him. 612 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember that year, reviewing and going back in 613 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 4: my mind, like I didn't know the stats, but I 614 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 4: remember the feeling when you turn on a Louisville game, 615 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 4: you were expecting to see something you've. 616 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 3: Never seen before. 617 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 4: It was it was like watching somebody play different sports 618 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 4: than the rest people on the field, and the officials 619 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 4: were kind of tasked with it, like. 620 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 3: Do we blow the whistle? Is it illegal what he's 621 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: doing here? 622 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 4: Like it felt like somebody put on god mode for 623 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 4: their quarterback and the rest, you know, the rest of 624 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 4: the kids out. 625 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 3: There didn't get the contra cheat code and we're going 626 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 3: way back. That's a deep cut. 627 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 4: I love it, but that's that's what it felt like. 628 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,479 Speaker 4: And Jayden I love him. I think LSU has a 629 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 4: special talent at quarterback. But yeah, I just it's not 630 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 4: It's not gonna be that year where we say, wow, 631 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 4: narrative be damned. This guy's just so supernatural. We have 632 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 4: to make a change here because Lamar's the exception that 633 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 4: proves the rule. I think the rule wins on this one. 634 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 3: This year. 635 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 2: Well, I think this is there are a couple of 636 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 2: scenarios where Jaden Daniels could come out with the Heisman. 637 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: One he's got to go crazy today, and you think 638 00:32:55,400 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 2: about that Lamar Jackson season, he accounted for fifty one touchdowns, 639 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 2: so Jade and Daniels right now he's accounted for forty six. 640 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 2: Now I want to be shocked if he accounts for 641 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 2: four or five more and you're right there at the 642 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: fifty threshold. And then think about next week. You just 643 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 2: saw Oregon's defense play great yesterday. Let's say somehow someway 644 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 2: Washington wins again. Michael Penix Junior hasn't had that much 645 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 2: Heisman buzz as of late. It hasn't been a great 646 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 2: second half of the season for him individually. When we're 647 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 2: talking about the Heisman standards. Imagine if Washington wins again 648 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 2: and Pennix Junior is good but not electric, right. 649 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, make the defensive score something fookie happens that it's 650 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 5: a low scoring game and they win. 651 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 652 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 5: I was trying to think of a scenario that could 653 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 5: happen where he is the guy that's the only one 654 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 5: I think, like, it has to be like a really 655 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 5: ugly game. 656 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, and it's hard to foresee that happening. I know, 657 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 2: Oregon's defense is good. 658 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 5: You got Penix with two wins over Oregon undefeated, Like, 659 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 5: how do you not give it to him? 660 00:33:59,280 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 6: Right? 661 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 5: I know, Like, how do you not give the award 662 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 5: to a guy that's probably gonna throw for what four 663 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 5: thousand plus yards and an undefeated season? They beat Orgon 664 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 5: twice in the PAC twelve they go on the road 665 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 5: to beat Oregon State, Like, that's tough. That would be 666 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 5: tough for Pennis. That'd be a tough beat. Almost as 667 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 5: tough as the TCL thing. 668 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 2: It was as tough as a Javan Holland just the 669 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 2: end zone before a halftime in the Dolphins Jets game. 670 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 2: I apologize on the behalf of sambling in general to you, Jared, 671 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 2: that is it was a rough one. 672 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 5: The good news is I at least had hope because 673 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 5: it was the full game under but I knew I 674 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 5: was it was Graham after that play, and then of 675 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 5: course the last touchdown for Miami's what put it over 676 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 5: the meaningless one where I forget who it was. 677 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 2: He most are a little thirty four yard or to 678 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 2: the end zone, right, if. 679 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 5: Someone want a two touchdown, bet on him. I saw 680 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 5: in my timeline and I was. 681 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 2: Like, ah, and he was running on the one yard 682 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: line for a little while. I'm sure that better was 683 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 2: like just get in a storm byke. 684 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 5: Wow, Michael's great.

We'll start with 721 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 5: ball State at home today against Miami Ohio. Ball State's 722 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 5: an underdog in this game by about four four and 723 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 5: a half points. They've covered five in a row and 724 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 5: they have two outright wins as a dog, and that's 725 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 5: they are trending in a positive direction despite having a 726 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 5: really rough season. Miami Ohio has a whole lot of 727 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 5: nothing to play for either. There will be in the 728 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 5: MAC Championship game next week against Toledo. We saw Toledo 729 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 5: yesterday play their starters till very late in the game. 730 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 5: They covered in their matchup against Central Michigan. I don't 731 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 5: know if Mima Ohio is going to take that same approach. 732 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 5: I think conserving your energy for next week is probably 733 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 5: the prudent approach it. We'll take fall stake to keep 734 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 5: it rolling. Their defense has been fantastic, number one of 735 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 5: the nation over the last six weeks. Two hundred and 736 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 5: thirty five yards allowed per game. Impressive stuff. Cal on 737 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 5: the money line against UCLA. Guys, this is the last 738 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 5: Pac twelve game at the Rose Bowl. I mean, this 739 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 5: is exciting stuff. The Swan song, last pack Pack twelve 740 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 5: game after dark letdown spot for the Bruins too. They 741 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 5: beat USC last week. We'll see how they handled that. 742 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 5: Thanksgiving week. Col's coming in. They're trying to get their 743 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 5: six win, trying to get Bowl eligible. Strength on strength 744 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 5: defense for UCLA against that really good running game Jade, 745 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 5: not for Cal and finally San Diego State. They throwing 746 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 5: the fighting. Rich Hornberger's in here this week. Bye bye 747 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 5: to Brady Hope right. I'm sure Rich has heard a 748 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 5: lot about this. This week the last game for Brady 749 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 5: Hook until he rides off into the sunset retires at 750 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 5: San Diego State, and it's really more of a fate 751 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 5: of Fresno here, who has just looked awful in the 752 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,879 Speaker 5: last two weeks. They got walloped by San Jose State 753 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 5: and then they lost at home to New Mexico as 754 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 5: a twenty two point favorite. What is going on with 755 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 5: Fresno State? But the Aztecs haven't looked great either. They've 756 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 5: lost four straight, but I think they've at least competed 757 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 5: over the last couple weeks. 758 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 3: Rich can attest. 759 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 5: So San Diego State, Cal Ball State all underdogs on 760 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 5: the money line twenty six to one. You can bet 761 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 5: that right now over at bet MGM. 762 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 4: Cal takes every other week off offensively forty point scored 763 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 4: in a loss against Oregon State, fouled by a fourteen 764 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,839 Speaker 4: point game against UTA, followed by a forty nine point 765 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 4: loss against USC filed by a nineteen point game against 766 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 4: Oregon filed by a thirty nine point game, or excuse me, 767 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,840 Speaker 4: forty two point game a win against Washington State followed 768 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 4: by a twenty seven point game against Stanford. So they're 769 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 4: due to have another forty burger I hope so. And 770 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 4: then in terms of San Diego State win or lose. 771 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 4: All these games are close. They come down to a 772 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 4: possession or two. So I like that bet as well. 773 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 2: Twenty six to one. You you are back in a 774 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 2: big way. 775 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,320 Speaker 5: Let's go we're hit today. 776 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 3: Let's go our back. 777 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 2: What was it last week? About five to one? 778 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that's not bad either, but right I 779 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 5: prefer twenty six. We'll be back to probably five like next. 780 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 5: Let the conference championship game last year is when we 781 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 5: hit one, it's. 782 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 2: Like an NBA player, like the warm up jersey. You 783 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 2: just just rip it off your back, cob it up. 784 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:49,760 Speaker 2: It's an argument that really isn't believable. Oh what's going on? Everybody? 785 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 2: Welcome in here on a Thanksgiving weekend ball of plenty. 786 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:59,959 Speaker 2: As I say, the ball buffet is in full four. 787 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 2: So we were brought to you by Progressive Insurance.

Rivalries 792 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 2: for sure got the Apple Cup Washington State at number 793 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:24,760 Speaker 2: four Washington that's at four pm Eastern time on Big Fox. 794 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 2: And also number five Florida State against Florida that's at 795 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 2: seven pm Eastern time. And both those teams, Washington and 796 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:39,720 Speaker 2: Florida State flip flopped in the rankings. You had Washington 797 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 2: leapfrog Florida State, and the committee came out and said, 798 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 2: oh no, the Jordan Travis injury that didn't impact Washington 799 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 2: leapfrogging Florida State. It's just an unbelievable stance. It's just 800 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 2: not a believable stance right where I think they would 801 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 2: have been better off saying, hey, that was certainly considered, 802 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 2: but may Washington beating Oregon State on the road that 803 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 2: carried a lot a weight make that the focus. Just 804 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: don't lie to us and say, oh, that didn't carry 805 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 2: any weight. Really, so if Jordan Travis was completely healthy, 806 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 2: that would have no bearing on who leapfrogs who. I 807 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 2: just don't buy that at all. 808 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, the chair of the College Football Playoff Committee stating 809 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 4: that Washington's past six quarters of defense is what really 810 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 4: did it is what really tipped the scale in the 811 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 4: favor of the undefeated Huskies. Really, that's all that mattered 812 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 4: you know what. Yeah, like you said, Brian, I think 813 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:42,919 Speaker 4: everybody understands what this is. This isn't a meritocracy. It's 814 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 4: just the closest thing they can approximate to a meritocracy 815 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 4: while making very human decisions. If he came out honestly, 816 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 4: if the chair of the CFP came out and said, look, 817 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 4: Washington's gonna be in our top four because they have 818 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 4: their starting quarter. If he was that blunt and that honest, 819 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,919 Speaker 4: I think there would have been outrage for like from 820 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 4: from a select group of people, seminoles, fans, and then 821 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 4: everybody would go collectively, but yeah, we get it because 822 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,399 Speaker 4: that's gonna be the better matchup, and everybody gets it. 823 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 4: It's we're all adults here and we know why you're 824 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 4: doing it, So why lie to us? 825 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's fair to downgrade them. You don't 826 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 5: need to make it like front and center like you 827 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,800 Speaker 5: just just to do the rankings. And I'll be honest, 828 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 5: I think Florida State even with Rodenmaker. I mean, and 829 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 5: we'll get to the Flora State Florida game a little 830 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 5: bit later, but I still think he's good enough to 831 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 5: get them to the playoff. Now they're going to be 832 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 5: the sacrificial land. If they get in, they'll be the 833 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 5: four seed. They'll likely play Georgia and they'll be a 834 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 5: fifth you know, two touchdown, three touchdown underdog. It'll be 835 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 5: a very similar Georgia versus the you know, the underling 836 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,919 Speaker 5: in that semi final and and you know the real 837 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 5: game will be the two three. But I still think 838 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 5: Florida State has a lot to be proud of, like 839 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 5: if they get themselves, and from everything I've heard this week, 840 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 5: they have been really intense there, Like Mike Norvella's run 841 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,359 Speaker 5: a really tight ship this week and the players are 842 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 5: really rallying around Rodenmaker. So I think you're gonna see 843 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 5: an inspired effort from Florida today. Again, we'll get to 844 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 5: that game of Florida State. We'll get to that game 845 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 5: when we talked the rivalry game a little later in 846 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 5: the show. But in terms of the playoff, I've been 847 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 5: doing this all year long, like I've been my own 848 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 5: committee all year long, and I'm proud to say that 849 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 5: I've had Georgia. I had Georgia one before the rest 850 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 5: of the committee did. And I think you look at 851 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 5: what the Washington Oregon situation is playing out to be. 852 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 5: It's obvious to me that the Washington Oregon winner deserves 853 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 5: to jump Florida State. Like to me, that doesn't and 854 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,479 Speaker 5: Washington already has. But if they win, they'll they'll stay 855 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 5: there and Oregon will jump Florida State. 856 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 2: If they win. 857 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 5: To me, that's obvious. Like the PAC twelve has been 858 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 5: better than the ACC all year, it shouldn't be a 859 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 5: surprise that the team that emerges from that path deserves 860 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 5: to jump Florida State. So I think that's the only 861 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 5: way to really rank them at this point is Florida 862 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 5: State is there because of their past, but their future 863 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 5: is a little bit clouded because of the situation. 864 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 2: Well, I think I can understand the committee doesn't want 865 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 2: to say the quiet part out loud. Yeah, I understand why. 866 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 2: I don't want to grab a megaphone and say it's 867 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 2: because Jordan Travis is injured. That's why Washington is number 868 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 2: four in Florida State's number five. I get they don't 869 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 2: want to say that, but it's like, just don't lie 870 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 2: through your teeth and say that had no bearing on 871 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,879 Speaker 2: the rankings whatsoever. I just think you gotta be sly 872 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,439 Speaker 2: about it. You gotta be Derek Jeter. If you're asked 873 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 2: a direct question, did you put Washington ahead because Jordan 874 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 2: Travis was injured, you just say, hey, we took that 875 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 2: into account. But man, look at that road win against 876 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 2: Oregon State, gritty YadA YadA, YadA YadA, where you're acknowledging it, 877 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 2: but you're not harping on it. But to say that 878 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 2: has no bearing is ridiculous. No one believes that at all. 879 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:05,959 Speaker 3: No now. 880 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 4: And really, look, the worst thing about all this is 881 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 4: because it is such a farce because we do know 882 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 4: that it's made for TV, and there's been plenty of, 883 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 4: like really good debates over why a fifth team or 884 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 4: a sixth team was left on the side burner while 885 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 4: the top four got to play it out to see 886 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 4: who's the quote unquote national champion. 887 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 3: Like that's the reality of this situation is. 888 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 4: When we went from the BCS to this new format, 889 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 4: that we still don't have a real national champion. In 890 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 4: my opinion, none of these teams since this new format 891 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 4: has been adopted, and by the way, expanding it to 892 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 4: six changes nothing. In my view, there's no such thing 893 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 4: as a national champion in college football. You can't whittle 894 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 4: the field to four have three games to side a 895 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 4: national title. That's not a national champion. 896 00:45:59,480 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. 897 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 4: I mean, if you want to make this believable, if 898 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 4: you want to have a format, you at least need 899 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 4: to invite sixteen teams at least I mean expand that 900 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 4: even I'm fine with it, because like the regular season 901 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 4: has too much filler anyways, with you know, teams playing 902 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 4: against New Mexico State who have no business putting them 903 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 4: on their schedule. 904 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 3: It just you could get rid of some of that. 905 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 4: You can have more consequential games earlier in the football 906 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,800 Speaker 4: season or later, depending on where those games are scheduled. 907 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 4: And let's go, let's have an actual real conversation about 908 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 4: who should be in when we're arguing over the sixteen 909 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 4: seed or dare I say the thirty two seed if 910 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,840 Speaker 4: you want to expand the bracket that far. Because in 911 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 4: college basketball, there is a real national title. In college football, 912 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 4: we still have yet to have a real national champion. 913 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,439 Speaker 5: Just wait for next year. Twelve teams, I mean, and 914 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 5: that's going to be a fun one. Because I'm looking 915 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 5: at I'm actually I was going on the CFP site 916 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 5: when this segment started. There actually is a clause on 917 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 5: the CFP committee bylaws for Army Navy, you know, just 918 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 5: in case that game matters in the College Troble play 919 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 5: of rankings. So they've really thought of everything, right, But 920 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:13,719 Speaker 5: the twelve team field is I think I think the 921 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,879 Speaker 5: twelve team field like it in my mind. I'm gonna 922 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 5: I'm gonna rank them this year and I'm gonna see 923 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 5: what my twelve team field would look like. But it's 924 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 5: gonna be a different animal next year. And I agree 925 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 5: with you, Richie, it still feels very tight, like it's 926 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 5: just there's not a lot of wiggle room. And I 927 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 5: think the regular season means so much that after you've 928 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 5: lost one, sometimes two games for most part, but sometimes 929 00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 5: one game. Yeah, a lot of those games after that 930 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 5: do feel a little bit hollow, especially for the you know, 931 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 5: the mid major teams that are trying to get to 932 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 5: the new year six. But I still think we have 933 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 5: a system in place that at least gives us the 934 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 5: best team in the country at the end of the year. 935 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 5: I feel more confident about that than I did the BCS, 936 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 5: where you could literally have for example, this is a 937 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 5: perfect example of it this year with Oregon and Washington, right, 938 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 5: we think Oregon is the second best team in the country. 939 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:10,720 Speaker 5: A lot of people do. But in the BCS format 940 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 5: from ten years ago, they would have probably been the 941 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,320 Speaker 5: odd man out. They would have been the three. It 942 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 5: would have been the Big ten winner and probably the 943 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 5: SEC winner. So I do think we have at least 944 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 5: a better version of it now. But I'm excited for 945 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 5: twelve teams next year. 946 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 2: Well hey, if you dive into both of these matchups 947 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 2: real fast. I love with Michael PENNOCKX Junior, the Washington quarterback. 948 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 2: It's amazing how the complexion of a season changes from 949 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 2: the beginning to the middle part. Now the end of 950 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,800 Speaker 2: the regular season, where think about the beginning where Pennick 951 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 2: Junior is going ballistic. He threw for over four hundred 952 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 2: yards in each of the first three games, he had 953 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 2: twelve touchdowns in one interception. And then last week against 954 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 2: Oregon State, he did enough. He did enough, like completion 955 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 2: percentage is at forty six, right, like one hundred and 956 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 2: sixty two yards but two touchdowns. Hooked up with Rome 957 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 2: a day enough in that game and got it done. 958 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 2: But it's just it's gone from prolific to let's just 959 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,879 Speaker 2: get this done with some duct tape and we got 960 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 2: some pliers over here and a clothes pin and just 961 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,839 Speaker 2: make it happen, man. And they're still undefeated as they 962 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 2: head into the Apple Cup, big favorites, favored by fifteen 963 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 2: and a half and much different in the Florida State 964 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 2: Florida game, a back a battle of the backup quarterbacks, 965 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 2: where like you said, Jared Tate Rodimaker, he takes over 966 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 2: for Jordan Travis, came on the road in the swamp, 967 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 2: you know, rivalry game. It's a tough spot. And then 968 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 2: Max Brown he takes over at Florida because of the injuries. 969 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 2: It's Graham Mertz went down for Florida as well, So 970 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,560 Speaker 2: that matchup is really intriguing tonight between FSU and Florida. 971 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 4: I wish there, you know, and you wish this for 972 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 4: any team that loses their quarterback, especially exciting quarterbacks like 973 00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:01,360 Speaker 4: both of these programs have, especially for Florida State. Considering 974 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 4: how consequential for Jordan Travis individually outside of just the 975 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 4: program and Heisman odds and all those things like how 976 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 4: will he'll be on the other side of this injury? 977 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 4: Hopefully very good and hopefully the recovery is great, but 978 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 4: you never know with injuries, so there's a lot of 979 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 4: you know, entanglements there with that side of the storyline. 980 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 4: But yeah, I wish, And again you can make all 981 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 4: the wishes you want. 982 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:27,720 Speaker 3: It's football. 983 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 4: There's not a ton of happy endings in football. It's 984 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 4: just kind of the way the sport goes. It's a 985 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 4: war of attrition. But yeah, I wish that that matchup 986 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 4: had two healthy quarterbacks because it's exciting. 987 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 3: That's the reason why the Apple Cup is so exciting 988 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 3: this year. 989 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 4: Pennix Junior, the way Christian Ward's been playing like this 990 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 4: is what football is and has been. 991 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 3: For our entire lifetimes. 992 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 4: It's about the quarterback in football, and at least for 993 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 4: the Apple Cup, we've got a great matchup there. 994 00:50:57,760 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 995 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 5: Radamaker, I mean, he's got a buzz to him, right. 996 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,959 Speaker 5: He was the first recruit Mike Norvel brought to Florida State. 997 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 5: He's the son of a coach, and I think he's 998 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:11,360 Speaker 5: got some athleticism too. He's arguably the fastest of the 999 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 5: quarterbacks that they have. I know that there's like some 1000 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 5: argument about like the straight line speed versus the lateral quickness, 1001 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:20,320 Speaker 5: but straight line speed, from what I've read, Rodamaker's faster 1002 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:24,760 Speaker 5: than Jordan Travis, but he's got this weird, clunky release 1003 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 5: and when he first came on campus from what we 1004 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 5: heard again, he's been in the program for a while now, 1005 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 5: Norbelle's first recruit, but when he first came to campus, 1006 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 5: he really had a rough first year, and they the 1007 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 5: defense gave him the nickname pick six. Tate is not 1008 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 5: that's not not the right nickname you want to have 1009 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,799 Speaker 5: if you're a quarterback playing for Florida State. But I 1010 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 5: think Florida's defense is not going to provide a whole 1011 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 5: lot of resistance here. But as you alluded to Brian 1012 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:58,600 Speaker 5: Swamp at night rivalry game, a lot of weird things 1013 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 5: can happen. And even last week against North Alabama, he 1014 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 5: turned the wrong way twice when trying to hand it off, 1015 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 5: like just a couple of you know, just blooper type plays. 1016 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 5: So those types of things happen when the crowds are 1017 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,479 Speaker 5: screaming and and you're you know, you're in the moment. 1018 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:16,320 Speaker 5: So we'll see how he handles this moment tonight. 1019 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 2: Man, they're hoping for a new nickname of tea. You know, 1020 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 2: TD Tate sounds a lot better than Tick six Tate. Right, Wow, good. 1021 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 5: First year on campus of Florida State. Imagine you get 1022 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 5: that nickname your your confidence level is probably not booming 1023 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 5: after that. 1024 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 2: No, No, that's not the most flattering nickname right there. 1025 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 2: But hey, some of us started at the bottom. You know, 1026 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 2: hopefully he's a couple long way at least Florida State 1027 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 2: fans are hoping so hey.

Yeah, today is the day 1085 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:40,280 Speaker 10: I hate Virginia Tech. Without every fiber of my bands 1086 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 10: and Virginia's played better football than their record of pears 1087 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 10: and coming back home, it's gonna be an emotional day. 1088 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 10: I think Virginia wins that. 1089 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:53,400 Speaker 5: Right, Nothing says Seamus special Lake right at in a 1090 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:57,680 Speaker 5: gate Virginia Virginia Tech. I mean that is that is 1091 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 5: elite stuff, Seamous the bigger game today. Let's start with 1092 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 5: the game, right, because it's about our plus and I'm 1093 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 5: looking already over the last thirty minutes, we've seen this 1094 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 5: total drop, We've seen the spread. Now get onto the 1095 00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:14,760 Speaker 5: key of three. So it looks like the early sentiment 1096 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 5: this morning is Ohio State and under. Is that what 1097 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:19,840 Speaker 5: the rest of the week look like? And how's the 1098 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 5: book looking for this Wolverine's Buckeyes game. 1099 00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's the Publican and Sharks have been on Ohio 1100 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 10: State all week. I'm a little surprised. I thought we 1101 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 10: were going to get a little more Michigan money. But 1102 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 10: it's a lot of a high state action coming in, 1103 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 10: so we definitely get to be a ring from Michigan. 1104 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:39,400 Speaker 10: And it's as I guess, two to one sided on 1105 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,480 Speaker 10: the total sharp plays definitely than the under. But I'm 1106 00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:43,839 Speaker 10: going to saying we're sweating right now. 1107 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 3: Is Ohio State the most beat underdog of the day. 1108 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 10: I say so, I say, yeah, yeah, Hey. 1109 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,920 Speaker 4: I had a quick question for you about handicapping these games. 1110 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 4: It just occurred to me when I was watching Game 1111 00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 4: Day and you know, some of the ESPN coverage leading 1112 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:06,280 Speaker 4: up to JAMU taking on Appalachian State, do you guys 1113 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 4: get a huge or a significant bump in picks on 1114 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:14,960 Speaker 4: teams that are featured with that coverage, Like, you know, 1115 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,840 Speaker 4: depending on where the game day crew ends up, do 1116 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 4: you see like a noticeable trend in terms of, you know, 1117 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 4: the team they show up at. Because I found myself 1118 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:26,880 Speaker 4: even falling into this trap where I'm like, hey, you 1119 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 4: know I haven't taken a close enough look at the Dukes. 1120 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's uh, I think you got to pick their spot. 1121 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,880 Speaker 10: I think when they go to place like JMU, you 1122 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 10: know ESPN's going there, they're really drumming up the story 1123 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 10: of jam You so that's a week we're going to 1124 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 10: see it once. But like you know, it's different when 1125 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 10: they're gonna Ohio State Michigan. But I'd even say when 1126 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 10: when they were in Colorado for the Nebravs game earlier, 1127 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 10: even though it was like coach Prime. I mean that 1128 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 10: was like a super Bowl of college football. It was 1129 00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:58,480 Speaker 10: you could stop me from that in Colorado that day. 1130 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 10: So I think it depends on the week and where 1131 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 10: they go. 1132 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 2: Really, you know, I like when you go contrarian shamous 1133 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 2: on us from time to time here, meaning is there 1134 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 2: a team that's heavily bet on this week where you say, yeah, 1135 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 2: really you're going with that squad? 1136 00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,360 Speaker 11: I mean, I gave you up. 1137 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 10: I think Virginia is pretty contrarian, to be honest, it is, 1138 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 10: But I would say I that Olivern Alabama game. I 1139 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 10: keep like looking at Auburn and I think I know 1140 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 10: they're coming off a lost to New Mexico State, but 1141 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 10: I think that was interesting, a ginormous look ahead spot 1142 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 10: for them coming into this one. I think it's a 1143 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:45,320 Speaker 10: lot of points to be laying. We took a big 1144 00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 10: ben on Alabama earlier in the week, so we're definitely 1145 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 10: gonna be rooting for albert. 1146 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 5: I know that Heisman race last night. You know, one big, 1147 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 5: one big notch in the belt of Bonnicks. He's got 1148 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 5: one more. Do you see a scenario did we talk 1149 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 5: about this earlier in the show. If Nicks or Pennix 1150 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 5: play well next week. Is there anything in your eyes 1151 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 5: that Jayden Daniels can do to steal the award from 1152 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 5: one of those two Pac twelve quarterbacks or is this 1153 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 5: kind of he's the number two guy and he just 1154 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 5: needs both of those guys to play really bad next week. 1155 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 10: He's I mean, he's obviously gonna light it up this week. 1156 00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think A and M. 1157 00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 11: But I honestly, I. 1158 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 10: Think Pennicks have to do something really special next week 1159 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 10: to pass Daniels to Dale's numbers. I think you burrow 1160 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 10: at the idea he won the island. 1161 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:37,040 Speaker 1: But if Knicks has. 1162 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 10: Like a huge game, I could really see a lot 1163 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,320 Speaker 10: of people going starting to head towards Knicks, especially like 1164 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 10: coming out in prime time championship game and all that. 1165 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:51,160 Speaker 4: When I looked at the college football futures, I didn't 1166 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 4: look at him prior to the to the seminals, losing 1167 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 4: Jordan Travis. But now for them to get into the 1168 00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:01,000 Speaker 4: College football Playoffs or to win the championship. Rather, they're 1169 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 4: at like plus twenty eight hundred. When when you realize 1170 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 4: that the playoff committee is in charge of selecting which 1171 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:11,960 Speaker 4: four teams. 1172 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 3: Make it in, I don't know, man, Look anybody. 1173 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 4: Can spend their money anyway they want, But it's it's 1174 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 4: a weird thing to try to bet on championship odds because. 1175 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:24,880 Speaker 3: A team like Florida State, what would they have to do. 1176 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:28,640 Speaker 4: At this point to even get an opportunity to play 1177 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 4: for the championship game? Or or do you think it's 1178 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 4: kind of already decided without that quarterback, even if they win, 1179 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:36,680 Speaker 4: they're gonna be left out in the cold. 1180 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:41,320 Speaker 11: I think if they blowout Florida and Louisville and there's 1181 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 11: a chance they get in, I mean, they just have 1182 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:46,480 Speaker 11: to look as good as they have with the Travis hobviously. 1183 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 11: So at the end of the day, if they blow 1184 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:52,640 Speaker 11: out Florida and Louisville, they're gonna be a thirteen to 1185 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:57,800 Speaker 11: zero team, undefeated Power Conference champions. So I mean they 1186 01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 11: got to leave no doubt. 1187 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,439 Speaker 2: Well, hey, Seamus, always good to catch up with you, man, 1188 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 2: and uh, we'll see if Virginia can bring it on 1189 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 2: home for. 1190 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,400 Speaker 1: You when they bring it home. 1191 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 2: When I like that confidence, swagger, swagger seamous today, I 1192 01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 2: love that.

All right, we go from power hitter 1196 01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 2: to power hitter. Yeah, it is murderer's row here on 1197 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 2: the show. That's right, from Seamus McGee to Isaac loew 1198 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 2: and Kron, which is just it's a double dose whatever 1199 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 2: you got down with Thanksgiving wise, you know, whatever your 1200 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,960 Speaker 2: one two combo is, Turkey mashed potatoes or whatever it is. 1201 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 2: That's Seamus making way for Isaac Lowan Kron. I love 1202 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 2: what's going on by. 1203 01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 9: Turkey mashed potatoes and here comes the pumpkin pie. And 1204 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 9: actually for college football fans, because we are now one 1205 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 9: hour and forty three minutes away from kickoff in ann Arbor, 1206 01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 9: the one hundred and nineteenth meeting between Michigan and Ohio State. 1207 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 9: Ohio State comes in rank number two at eleven to zero. 1208 01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 9: Michigan ranked third also at eleven and zero in both 1209 01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 9: teams eight and oh in the Big Ten Conference. While 1210 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 9: on Friday night, six ranked Oregon advance the Pac twelve 1211 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 9: championship game against the Washington Huskies by beating number sixteen 1212 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 9: Oregon State thirty one to seven. Seventh ranked Texas over 1213 01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:38,680 Speaker 9: Texas Tech fifty seven to seven, number eleven. Penn State 1214 01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 9: won at Michigan State forty two to nothing. While in 1215 01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:44,600 Speaker 9: the NFL a short time ago. Today, New York Jets 1216 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 9: head coach Robert Sala said the Tim Boyle once again 1217 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 9: going to get the start at quarterback for the Jets 1218 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,880 Speaker 9: next week against the Atlanta Falcons. 1219 01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 2: In the NBA. 1220 01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 9: On Friday night, Steph Curry scored thirty five as his 1221 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 9: Golden State Warriors defeated the San Antonio Spurs won eighteen 1222 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:03,200 Speaker 9: to one twelve. The Spurs now on an eleven game 1223 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:07,120 Speaker 9: losing streak. They are three and thirteen overall, but their 1224 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:11,360 Speaker 9: problems apparently do not end there. San Antonio rookie star 1225 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 9: Victor weban Yama had to change his jersey during the game, 1226 01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 9: not because of a jersey tear. It didn't get blood 1227 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 9: on it or anything. It's because his name on the 1228 01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 9: original jersey was spelled wrong. It was spelled weban Yana 1229 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:34,520 Speaker 9: instead of wemban Yama. They had to change it with 1230 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 9: the correct spelling. So apparently the Spurs woes even extend 1231 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 9: to jersey stitching and spelling. 1232 01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,880 Speaker 2: Back to you, good miss man, that's ye. Yeah, did 1233 01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:48,440 Speaker 2: the good team screw that up? Who's the best teams. 1234 01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:52,320 Speaker 9: They never they never misspelled Ornberger during your career. 1235 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 5: Today, I have names on the back of our jerseys, No, Pence. 1236 01:03:56,920 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 4: I do have a high school All Star game MITSTL 1237 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 4: jersey though, in the collection, and that is one that 1238 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:06,240 Speaker 4: I think they flipped around an e. 1239 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 3: I forget exactly how they did it, but it. 1240 01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:12,280 Speaker 2: Was not z in there somewhere silence, c were you 1241 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 2: holding in that game? 1242 01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:13,520 Speaker 3: Rich? 1243 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:18,800 Speaker 4: Every single game, Brian, every single game, every play. 1244 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:20,280 Speaker 5: The next time he gives you a hug, he's just 1245 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 5: gonna hold on. 1246 01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, Just get a handful of claw. 1247 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 3: That's right. 1248 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,160 Speaker 2: It's Fox Sports Radios Countdown to kick Off presented by 1249 01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,400 Speaker 2: bet MGM. Bet MGM is now available under one wallet 1250 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 2: and select states. For example, if you're in the DMV area, 1251 01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:38,959 Speaker 2: no need to worry about making separate accounts for DC, 1252 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 2: Maryland and Virginia when crossing state borders. Simply just log 1253 01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 2: into your existing account instead of creating a new one. 1254 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 2: All right, let's dive into this. We've got number one 1255 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:53,960 Speaker 2: Georgia against Georgia Tech. Georgia a huge favorite right twenty 1256 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:57,440 Speaker 2: four in the hook in this, so uh they should 1257 01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:02,439 Speaker 2: be able. You do whatever they won offensively, Carson Beck 1258 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 2: should be able to sling it around. Georgia Tech's defense 1259 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:08,080 Speaker 2: is rough. Their run defense in particular is brutal. They 1260 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:11,640 Speaker 2: allow two hundred and twenty two yards on the ground 1261 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:16,160 Speaker 2: on average, and Georgia they can run the rock. So 1262 01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,080 Speaker 2: the one to two combo really a balanced attack with 1263 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 2: Carson Beck and the running backs that they have right there. 1264 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:25,800 Speaker 2: I love what their backup running back brings to the 1265 01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 2: table where he he's not very talked about very much, Milton. 1266 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 2: He's a really good change of pace running back where 1267 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 2: that's your your second guy. That is tough to deal with, 1268 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 2: and Georgia Tech has shown no ability to slow down 1269 01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 2: the run. So watch out for Edwards and also Kendall 1270 01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,120 Speaker 2: Milton doing some damage on the ground against g Tech tonight. 1271 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 4: Hey listen, I'm thinking for the Yellowjackets. They already played 1272 01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:57,080 Speaker 4: their big emotional game last week with a win over 1273 01:05:57,360 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 4: Syracuse that earns them Bawl eligibility. I mean, if they 1274 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:05,120 Speaker 4: even make this a competitive game, that's just icing on 1275 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 4: the cake, which I don't forecast is gonna happen. Because 1276 01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 4: as much as the Bullsdogs defense gets a tremendous amount 1277 01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:17,720 Speaker 4: of attention. The offense for Georgia is as good as 1278 01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 4: you'll find in the country. I mean, Carson Beck is 1279 01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 4: playing well as any quarterback in the country. Now, I 1280 01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:25,600 Speaker 4: know the stats don't tell you that. I mean, they're 1281 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 4: not as good as compared to a Daniels or maybe 1282 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:32,840 Speaker 4: even a bon Knicks, but he's a talented guy, and 1283 01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:36,439 Speaker 4: this Georgia team is going to be looking to run 1284 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:38,920 Speaker 4: with a full head of steam into the college football 1285 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:41,920 Speaker 4: playoffs or into their SEC championship game. So I mean, 1286 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:45,720 Speaker 4: obviously it's the Bulldogs by a mile, but it's not 1287 01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 4: just because of how much more talent they have or 1288 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 4: how big of a mismatch this is. It's really because 1289 01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:54,600 Speaker 4: of the emotional letdown of a team that's already earned 1290 01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 4: their Bowl eligibility. So the best they can do is 1291 01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 4: hold on tight and not get hurt. Their postseason action 1292 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:02,840 Speaker 4: for the Yellow Jacks Jash. 1293 01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think handygaving his game is you know it's 1294 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 5: gonna be one way traffic. I think the more interesting 1295 01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:12,000 Speaker 5: part about this game is how it kind of fits 1296 01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 5: into the landscape of some of the other games that 1297 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 5: we are going to see today, with teams that have 1298 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:21,160 Speaker 5: quote unquote nothing to play for and for the radio audience. 1299 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,920 Speaker 5: I am doing the air quotes now, hm, because for 1300 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,960 Speaker 5: someone to look you in the eyes. And I've heard 1301 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:30,840 Speaker 5: this with the Alabama Auburn game this week, and I'm 1302 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 5: just like, what are you talking about? For someone to 1303 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:34,920 Speaker 5: look you in the eyes and say, Georgia has nothing 1304 01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 5: to play for, They're playing their most bitter rival. Like 1305 01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:42,440 Speaker 5: I heard someone say this week, Well, Alabama doesn't have 1306 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:44,800 Speaker 5: anything to play for. They got the SEC Championship game 1307 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 5: next week. It's the Iron Bawl. Yeah, I know they 1308 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 5: needed to play for, like and I know Georgia Georgia. 1309 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:53,680 Speaker 5: Check's not the Iron Bowl. But my point being the 1310 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 5: idea that Georgia is just gonna sleep walk through this game, 1311 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 5: I'm not so sure that's the vibe. If I was Georgia, 1312 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:04,080 Speaker 5: I would want to be playing my best football this week. 1313 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 5: Why because then you have something to carry over for 1314 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 5: next week. You don't want to be playing your worst 1315 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:12,680 Speaker 5: football the week before the SEC Championship game. So I 1316 01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:16,400 Speaker 5: think the notion with this game and others like it, 1317 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:20,760 Speaker 5: big spreads, but big rivalries, that the team with a 1318 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,639 Speaker 5: lot to play for next week and the weeks beyond 1319 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 5: are gonna let their foot off the gas. No, this 1320 01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:30,520 Speaker 5: is rivalry week. This is Georgia Georgia Tech, big rivalry. 1321 01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 5: I think Georgia will be up for it. Can they 1322 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 5: win by margin? Suore? Do they want to win by margin? 1323 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:35,920 Speaker 3: Eh? 1324 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,719 Speaker 5: Maybe not. But I don't think they're just gonna punt 1325 01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 5: on the game quote unquote if they're really invested in 1326 01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:44,760 Speaker 5: the rivalry, which this clearly is. 1327 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing to me is I don't understand 1328 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 2: that Alabama point at all. As if SPAMA has zero losses, 1329 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,440 Speaker 2: you know, if they lose this game today against Auburn, 1330 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. If they beat Georgia, they're not going 1331 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 2: to the playoff. So true, I don't get that point 1332 01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:01,840 Speaker 2: at all. 1333 01:09:02,640 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 5: But the Georgia Georgia Tech thing too. I mean, if 1334 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 5: if Georgia loses to Georgia Tech and then then they 1335 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,240 Speaker 5: beat Bama next week, they're still in the playoff. 1336 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:09,720 Speaker 6: You know. 1337 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 5: So it's it's a weird. It's a weird dynamic to 1338 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:15,320 Speaker 5: think that these college kids don't care. They care about everything, 1339 01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:16,439 Speaker 5: especially these games. 1340 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:18,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they definitely care. 1341 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,320 Speaker 4: I guess my point is Georgia is gonna be so 1342 01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:25,680 Speaker 4: motivated that it's it's it's going to be a steamrolling 1343 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 4: now Auburn Alabama. I give Auburn a puncher's chance, Like 1344 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:34,200 Speaker 4: if you want to talk about like a big underdog 1345 01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 4: with a big chance to play runer, that feels like 1346 01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 4: more of a spot than Georgia Tech. 1347 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 3: I'm not saying I feel sorry. 1348 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:45,599 Speaker 4: For Georgia Tech either, because what an accomplishment being ball eligible. 1349 01:09:45,720 --> 01:09:48,680 Speaker 4: I mean, there's a lot of teams around this country 1350 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 4: who wish to go to a postseason bowl game and 1351 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 4: they won't because they had less than satisfactory seasons. 1352 01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:58,679 Speaker 3: I mean, let's face it, the bar is set really low. 1353 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 4: You gotta win half your game, and if you can't 1354 01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 4: muster that, that is an extremely disappointing season. And so 1355 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,799 Speaker 4: there's a lot of disappointed teams out there in the country. 1356 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:11,080 Speaker 4: So bravo to the Yellow Jackets. But I look at 1357 01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:15,639 Speaker 4: Georgia as almost machine like in their dominance of college 1358 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:18,880 Speaker 4: football over the past three seasons. Now, because we're almost there, 1359 01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:21,639 Speaker 4: this is almost another full regular season in the books, 1360 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 4: and Kirby Smart's got that program, hummin'. He's got that 1361 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:29,920 Speaker 4: program operating, operating the same way we used to view 1362 01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 4: Alabama and Nick Saban, like you remember that, Like we 1363 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 4: almost got so used to Alabama's dominance that we just 1364 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:41,439 Speaker 4: forgot how good they were. That's what it kind of 1365 01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 4: feels like with Georgia. They've almost they've almost grabbed zero high. 1366 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 4: Headlines have been dominated by the Harrba stuff and obviously Michigan. 1367 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:52,720 Speaker 3: Football blah blah blah. 1368 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:55,479 Speaker 4: But holy smokes, like Georgia is a really good team 1369 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:59,000 Speaker 4: and they're contending for their third straight national championship this year. 1370 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:01,280 Speaker 5: They're the best team in country, being the best team 1371 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:04,120 Speaker 5: all year, we hadn't seen We didn't see it because 1372 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,840 Speaker 5: they didn't show it to us because they didn't need 1373 01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:08,800 Speaker 5: to in week one and two and three and four. 1374 01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:13,599 Speaker 5: I forget which week was their first like explosive game. 1375 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,639 Speaker 5: Let's look here, Oh it was the Kentucky game. Yeah, 1376 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 5: when when Kentucky came in undefeated and everyone thought they 1377 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:22,479 Speaker 5: were hot to trot and and Georgia dropped the fifty 1378 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:24,600 Speaker 5: burger on him like it was nothing. Same thing in 1379 01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 5: the in the Florida game, you know. 1380 01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 2: Oh Florida. 1381 01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:30,160 Speaker 5: Oh h yeah, yeah, forty three twenty like it was. 1382 01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:35,639 Speaker 5: It wasn't even close. Georgia has the ability to flip 1383 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:38,200 Speaker 5: a switch like any other team that I've ever seen, 1384 01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:41,760 Speaker 5: and Carson Beck, I think he is just as good 1385 01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:44,439 Speaker 5: as any of these other guys. Maybe not on the 1386 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:49,400 Speaker 5: same level as Daniels, but I would say Nicks Pennix. Yeah, 1387 01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 5: Carson Beck has the ability to be that good. He 1388 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:55,479 Speaker 5: has an NFL arm and NFL physical size, and he's 1389 01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:57,519 Speaker 5: got a heck of a team around him, that's for sure. 1390 01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,920 Speaker 5: I mean that receiving group and the tight end Bowers, 1391 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:01,360 Speaker 5: I mean the running backs Edwards. 1392 01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:02,880 Speaker 2: I mean they have dudes. 1393 01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 5: So I think George's best team in the country, and 1394 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:07,559 Speaker 5: I think they can cruise easily. They can set their 1395 01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:09,439 Speaker 5: number today they want to cover today, they will, It's 1396 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 5: just a matter of how much they want to. 1397 01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:15,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, Carson Beck. His accuracy has really impressed me. 1398 01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 2: It's every single week he'll make a couple of throws 1399 01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 2: where I'm like, man, that is that's high level, just 1400 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 2: pinpoint accuracy. And so I want to see how he 1401 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 2: performs when we get to the SEC Championship game, assuming 1402 01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 2: they're in the playoff, when he gets on the playoff stage. 1403 01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,880 Speaker 2: But he's been really, really solid thus far, and he 1404 01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 2: seems cool, right, That's the other thing he doesn't seem 1405 01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:41,240 Speaker 2: like he's been in some close games like the Missouri 1406 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:46,760 Speaker 2: game was closer and Georgia. Man, they call plays with swagger, 1407 01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:53,120 Speaker 2: they're not scared, and he's unflappable to your point, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1408 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,600 Speaker 2: whatever the situation is, it's like, oh man, this is 1409 01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:58,519 Speaker 2: third and seven is a big play, or hey, we're 1410 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:01,439 Speaker 2: deep in our own territory. If we turn it over 1411 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 2: and we give them some live they just don't operate 1412 01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 2: like that. They're like, execute the play, we trust you, 1413 01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:10,480 Speaker 2: and Carson Beck has responded thus far, it's been impressive, 1414 01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:13,720 Speaker 2: all right.

And I was 1440 01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:34,120 Speaker 5: doing my research this week and I was listening to 1441 01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:37,400 Speaker 5: Justin Wilcox, the Cale head coach's press conference, and he 1442 01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:40,400 Speaker 5: said something that caught my ear. So last week against Stanford, 1443 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 5: it was second and nine from the Stanford twenty four 1444 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:46,200 Speaker 5: Cole's up two scores, Jade not gets the ball on 1445 01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:49,479 Speaker 5: a carry, runs, gets a first down and he's wide 1446 01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:52,320 Speaker 5: open like the end zone there. Stanford's letting him score, 1447 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:55,680 Speaker 5: but instead of scoring, he takes a knee, so cal 1448 01:14:55,800 --> 01:14:59,519 Speaker 5: can and the game smartly, right Justin Wilcox was asked 1449 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,080 Speaker 5: about that this week during his press conference. Then he said, 1450 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:04,800 Speaker 5: great play, Jade not smart football player. We're gonna get 1451 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 5: him back in the end zone this week. He actually 1452 01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 5: said that in the press conference. And Jade Not has 1453 01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:12,439 Speaker 5: scored a nine or ten out of eleven games this year. 1454 01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:14,240 Speaker 5: He did score last week against Stanford as well. It's 1455 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:17,000 Speaker 5: not like he didn't score against the Cardinal. But you're 1456 01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:18,640 Speaker 5: getting a little bit of value on his number this 1457 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:20,960 Speaker 5: week because UCLA has the number one rush defense in 1458 01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 5: the country. But how motivated is UCLA off in a 1459 01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 5: letdown game after their big win over USC and they've 1460 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:29,680 Speaker 5: got their bowl game coming up, you know, in a 1461 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 5: few weeks. So I think Jade Not to score a 1462 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 5: touchdown today at minus one sixty, it's juicy, But the 1463 01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:36,600 Speaker 5: coach told you they're going to get him into the 1464 01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:38,640 Speaker 5: end zone. So who am I to argue with that? 1465 01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:41,679 Speaker 4: All Right, I'm taking a look at this Ohio State, 1466 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:45,519 Speaker 4: Michigan game, and I'm thinking the same defensive strategy is 1467 01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:47,960 Speaker 4: going to be employed by both of these teams, which 1468 01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:51,240 Speaker 4: is shut down the run and force these quarterbacks to 1469 01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 4: win the football game. 1470 01:15:52,360 --> 01:15:53,840 Speaker 3: This is gonna be all about. 1471 01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:57,519 Speaker 4: McCarthy and McCord. Who is going to outduel who. So 1472 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:01,640 Speaker 4: I'm taking the under on bol Trayvion Hens. 1473 01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:02,240 Speaker 3: And Blake Koram's stats. 1474 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 4: I got Traveon Henderson at under eighty five and a 1475 01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:09,760 Speaker 4: half rushing yards Blake Koram under eighty nine and a 1476 01:16:09,800 --> 01:16:12,040 Speaker 4: half rushing yards because that's what I would do. 1477 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 3: I would just give the run games zero daylight. 1478 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:18,960 Speaker 4: These are two top three defenses facing each other great 1479 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 4: against the run, and so I'm taking the under on that. 1480 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:26,000 Speaker 4: If you like a defense, better choose choose the opposite back, you. 1481 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:26,679 Speaker 3: Know what I'm saying. 1482 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:30,120 Speaker 4: And then looking at this LSU game, this little bit 1483 01:16:30,160 --> 01:16:32,880 Speaker 4: of a companion pick, I think they're going to try 1484 01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 4: to increase Jayden Daniels Heisman odds and they're gonna go 1485 01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,800 Speaker 4: after it. So I have over thirty one and a 1486 01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 4: half pass attempts and Malik Neighbors, who's been piling up 1487 01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 4: receiving yard after receiving yard I'm taking the over one 1488 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:49,519 Speaker 4: one hundred twenty two and a half receiving yards. 1489 01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna look at that same game. I'm gonna 1490 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 2: get a little daring on you over here. I'm looking 1491 01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 2: at Jayden Daniels his rushing prop that is at eighty 1492 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:01,640 Speaker 2: one and a half. To take the under eighty one 1493 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:04,679 Speaker 2: and a half. Wow, I know he's hit the over 1494 01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,559 Speaker 2: in five of the last six games. But if you 1495 01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:10,560 Speaker 2: look at Texas A and M, their rush defense quietly 1496 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:14,080 Speaker 2: is very good. They're one of the top rush defenses 1497 01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:18,559 Speaker 2: in the nation. There have only been let's see four, six, eight, ten, 1498 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:23,639 Speaker 2: about twelve defenses that give up less than one hundred 1499 01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:26,360 Speaker 2: yards on the ground per game. Texas A and M 1500 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:29,280 Speaker 2: is just outside of that. They give up one oh 1501 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:33,240 Speaker 2: two each game on the ground. And I think this 1502 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 2: game like, you can't let Jayden Daniels carve you up 1503 01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 2: with his legs. Also, and if you get a couple 1504 01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 2: of sacks on the guy that works against his rushing 1505 01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:45,559 Speaker 2: yardage total, if he rushes for eighty and a couple 1506 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:47,840 Speaker 2: of touchdowns, that's a good day on the ground for 1507 01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:50,759 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels. I'll take the under eighty one and a half. 1508 01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:53,679 Speaker 2: I just think the odds are better that he doesn't 1509 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:55,599 Speaker 2: get there. You're rooting for me, Jared. 1510 01:17:56,040 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 5: Here's their I don't agree with this. I agree with 1511 01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 5: the value because I agree with the value that it's 1512 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:06,599 Speaker 5: they've priced in this Heisman bump for Daniels and now 1513 01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:08,680 Speaker 5: the value does say under. 1514 01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see if it works out. Sharp No over here, Darren, No, 1515 01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:16,519 Speaker 2: maybe dumb No, I don't know. We'll find that the 1516 01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:18,960 Speaker 2: game coming up. Oh, what's going on? 1517 01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 3: Everybody? 1518 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:23,639 Speaker 2: Less than an hour until kickoff?

That would be number two 1527 01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 2: Ohio State against number three Michigan. You know, I'll start 1528 01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:56,799 Speaker 2: a little. 1529 01:18:56,600 --> 01:18:57,400 Speaker 3: Bit broad here. 1530 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 2: I don't want to be a downer, but when we 1531 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:04,439 Speaker 2: go to twelve teams next season, in the playoff, a 1532 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:08,120 Speaker 2: game like this isn't gonna have the same pizazz. You know, 1533 01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:12,640 Speaker 2: Rivalry week isn't gonna have the same punch that it 1534 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:16,559 Speaker 2: does today, Because I contend, man, I don't see a 1535 01:19:16,680 --> 01:19:20,439 Speaker 2: way realistically that the loser of Ohio State Michigan is 1536 01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:23,080 Speaker 2: gonna get into the playoffs. That's as high as you 1537 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:25,639 Speaker 2: can get for the stakes here, where it's not gonna 1538 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:29,040 Speaker 2: be as great next season. If we're in a similar 1539 01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 2: spot where the loser of this game would be in 1540 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:36,240 Speaker 2: a twelve team playoff, so much higher stakes today, and 1541 01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:38,599 Speaker 2: it's not all bad once we get to the twelve 1542 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 2: team playoff, that's gonna be fantastic to see him duke 1543 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:44,439 Speaker 2: it out on the field. But a spot like this 1544 01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:47,360 Speaker 2: to get into the playoff, it's not gonna have the 1545 01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 2: same punch in the regular season that it does right now, 1546 01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:51,479 Speaker 2: I agree with you. 1547 01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:54,559 Speaker 4: But at the same time, I think I think as 1548 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:59,479 Speaker 4: long as scheduling wise, you keep these rivalries intact, you 1549 01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 4: could still it's you could still see a way where 1550 01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:07,400 Speaker 4: it matters and it's meaningful, Like for example, in college basketball, 1551 01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:11,880 Speaker 4: I mean, you have sixty four teams with a real 1552 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:17,120 Speaker 4: legitimate shot to win a championship and rivalries still matter 1553 01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 4: to fan bases. 1554 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:20,920 Speaker 3: You know, Duke, you and c it doesn't matter. 1555 01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:24,160 Speaker 4: It doesn't matter if it's consequential in terms of tournament berth. 1556 01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:26,800 Speaker 4: You want your team to win, you have the fan 1557 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 4: bases are still invested. So it comes down to the 1558 01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:32,479 Speaker 4: schedule makers. Like if you have a situation where teams 1559 01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:36,160 Speaker 4: are leaving conferences, there's a reshuffling of the deck happening 1560 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:40,080 Speaker 4: in college football basically every year. You have to make 1561 01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:43,240 Speaker 4: sure that you keep some of these these rivalries intact. 1562 01:20:43,320 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 4: Otherwise it will become less meaningful because there'll be too 1563 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:49,040 Speaker 4: much distance from the last time these two teams match. 1564 01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:53,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it'll be a it'll have a different 1565 01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 5: feel for some of the Pac twelve games today, I think, 1566 01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 5: especially the last game at the Rose Bowl in a 1567 01:20:58,520 --> 01:21:01,519 Speaker 5: Pack twelve. Washington Washington Spit though, from what I read, 1568 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:03,160 Speaker 5: is going to continue their series. 1569 01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:06,919 Speaker 2: Yeah next right, Yeah, five years. 1570 01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:09,799 Speaker 5: They're playing one of the games at the Seahawks Stadium 1571 01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:12,719 Speaker 5: in Seattle. I mean that'll be electric, and then they'll 1572 01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:15,240 Speaker 5: go home and home for the other two years there 1573 01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:19,800 Speaker 5: two in in Pullman and two in Washington's campus. So 1574 01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:22,080 Speaker 5: I love that at least there's some talk. I don't 1575 01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:23,960 Speaker 5: know about Oregon Oregon State last night. It might have 1576 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:26,040 Speaker 5: been the last game we played between those two teams. 1577 01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 5: We'll see. But for this Ohio State Michigan game, I 1578 01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:33,280 Speaker 5: really like your your your prop angle rich because again, 1579 01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:36,800 Speaker 5: the way that I think props are most effective is 1580 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,280 Speaker 5: when you game script and then you find the value 1581 01:21:40,320 --> 01:21:43,720 Speaker 5: based off of the game script. And I agree that 1582 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:46,559 Speaker 5: the game script for both of these teams is going 1583 01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:49,960 Speaker 5: to be take away the run and make the quarterbacks 1584 01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:54,360 Speaker 5: beat them. And for Ohio State's defense, Jim Nole, I 1585 01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:58,599 Speaker 5: mean this is Jim Knowles can win this game. Like Michigan, 1586 01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:01,040 Speaker 5: it doesn't matter what Michigan does do. If Jim Knowles 1587 01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:04,080 Speaker 5: has the right scheme, I think they have the personnel 1588 01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:09,519 Speaker 5: to completely eliminate any explosive offense from Michigan. Roman Wilson's 1589 01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:11,960 Speaker 5: playing in this game. He's banged up, he's nine hundred percent, 1590 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:12,840 Speaker 5: but he's playing for Michigan. 1591 01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:13,759 Speaker 3: He's their leading receiver. 1592 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 5: But JJ McCarty's explosive pass right and all of the 1593 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 5: numbers have just fallen off of a cliff. And the 1594 01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 5: one thing that Ohio State has done better than anything 1595 01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 5: else like they are top ten defense in like every 1596 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 5: Schedulejusted Metric, but their best is early downs and explosive plays. Yep, 1597 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:33,680 Speaker 5: that's what they control the best. So this game, to 1598 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 5: me is a phone booth game. And I don't know 1599 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:37,479 Speaker 5: if Michigan's offensive line, which is outside the top thirty 1600 01:22:37,479 --> 01:22:39,479 Speaker 5: in line yards created Blake Korn does not look good 1601 01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:41,439 Speaker 5: post knee surgery, and Donovan Edwards, I don't know what's 1602 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:43,800 Speaker 5: going on there. This could be a really tough game 1603 01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:46,600 Speaker 5: for Michigan's running attack and it's gonna kind of all 1604 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:47,960 Speaker 5: fall on McCarthy's shoulders, I. 1605 01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:48,719 Speaker 3: Think, yeah. 1606 01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:50,680 Speaker 2: Well, and that's the other part of it, too, is 1607 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:54,760 Speaker 2: how well does Michigan slow down Ohio State's ground game 1608 01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:58,800 Speaker 2: as well, because Trayvon Henderson has been really good the 1609 01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:01,439 Speaker 2: last four games. He's got at four hundred and ninety 1610 01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:05,120 Speaker 2: nine yards and five touchdowns, and so if they're able 1611 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:08,840 Speaker 2: to rely on him a bit more and you have 1612 01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:13,080 Speaker 2: Kyle McCord throwing to those first round wide receivers as like, yeah, 1613 01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:18,160 Speaker 2: maybe your number two option, that becomes really tough to stop. 1614 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:23,120 Speaker 2: So really really important obviously for Michigan's rush defense to 1615 01:23:23,160 --> 01:23:28,040 Speaker 2: be on point today because if Ohio State is balanced offensively. Lookout, 1616 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:31,080 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a tough day for the Wolverines to 1617 01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 2: win a game like that when you're basically like, hey, 1618 01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:37,479 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy, go do your thing and win it for us. 1619 01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:39,360 Speaker 2: That's not a position you want to be in. 1620 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,559 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm really neither side wants to be in that position. 1621 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:46,320 Speaker 4: You have two offensive minded head coaches with Ryan Day 1622 01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:46,959 Speaker 4: and Jim. 1623 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:49,400 Speaker 3: Harbam well, Sharon Moore. 1624 01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,439 Speaker 4: Because Jim Harba is going to be at home wearing 1625 01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:56,000 Speaker 4: his khaki, is staring weirdly at the television. 1626 01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:58,040 Speaker 5: He's watching the game of Stallions. Yeah, yeah, you gether. 1627 01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:04,639 Speaker 2: What doing in the game, you know what I mean? 1628 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,200 Speaker 2: Is he just pacing like a mad man. That has 1629 01:24:07,280 --> 01:24:11,000 Speaker 2: got to be such And listen, he did it to himself. 1630 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:13,800 Speaker 2: They did it to themselves. So it's not a pity party. 1631 01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:16,880 Speaker 2: But that's gotta be a rough watch to not be 1632 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:20,040 Speaker 2: on the sideline, not having any control, man. 1633 01:24:20,120 --> 01:24:24,120 Speaker 4: Chewing his fingernails to the studs, Like I mean, it's 1634 01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:28,800 Speaker 4: just going to be anxiety written mourning on the West 1635 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:31,160 Speaker 4: coast after noon on the East coast for him. Look, 1636 01:24:31,439 --> 01:24:34,920 Speaker 4: the reality of this game is, though, these these offensive 1637 01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,800 Speaker 4: minded coaches are gonna go into the game with the 1638 01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:39,760 Speaker 4: best possible game plan. Right, We're gonna be balanced, we're 1639 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 4: gonna we're gonna try to affect him with our run game. 1640 01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:44,040 Speaker 4: We're gonna win in the play action game. We're gonna 1641 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 4: have those explosives. Jared was talking about both sides, right, 1642 01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 4: Michigan wants to do that to the Ohio State defense. 1643 01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:51,599 Speaker 4: Ohio State wants to do that to the Michigan defense. 1644 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:55,519 Speaker 4: But guess what, they've got defensive coordinators too, and guess 1645 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 4: what they're getting paid also, and they're getting paid to 1646 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:02,799 Speaker 4: stop these opposed offenses. So again, if you're worth your salt, 1647 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:06,439 Speaker 4: if you're watching any any film of these two teams, 1648 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 4: what do they feature? What are they great at? They 1649 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,639 Speaker 4: feature controlling games on the ground and beating it with 1650 01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:16,519 Speaker 4: those over the top explosive passes. So, if you can 1651 01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 4: find a way to shut down Henderson if you're Michigan, 1652 01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 4: if you can find a way to shut down Korum, 1653 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:24,360 Speaker 4: if you're Ohio State, you have a great chance of 1654 01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:27,160 Speaker 4: getting the W because I don't trust either. 1655 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:28,840 Speaker 3: Of these guys to win games on their own. 1656 01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:32,439 Speaker 4: McCarthy as a Heisman candidate, I mean I get it 1657 01:25:32,479 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 4: because winning is a huge quot when we're deciding who's 1658 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:39,200 Speaker 4: going to win that award. But I don't see him 1659 01:25:39,240 --> 01:25:43,880 Speaker 4: winning the Heisman if he's on a three loss LSU team, 1660 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 4: you know what I mean, Like, he's not that same 1661 01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 4: same with cal McCord. I mean, these guys just aren't 1662 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:52,559 Speaker 4: those type of quarterbacks. So so yeah, it's gonna come 1663 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:56,800 Speaker 4: down to playing stifling run defense for both these teams. 1664 01:25:56,840 --> 01:25:58,280 Speaker 4: Gonna be a rock fight, gentlemen. 1665 01:25:58,680 --> 01:26:02,439 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's again. Then it looks like we are still 1666 01:26:02,439 --> 01:26:04,920 Speaker 5: sitting forty five and a half. I got under forty 1667 01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:07,280 Speaker 5: seven earlier this week. I would still play under forty six. 1668 01:26:07,320 --> 01:26:08,760 Speaker 5: I think if you can find a forty six bet 1669 01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 5: MGM right now is at forty five and a half. 1670 01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 5: I think it's trending under guys, it is. 1671 01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:13,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's trending. 1672 01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:16,479 Speaker 4: Other because when we started the show, bet MGM was 1673 01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:17,799 Speaker 4: at forty six and a half. 1674 01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, so we've seen a point shaped off. And I 1675 01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:23,240 Speaker 5: was surprised because I thought Roman Wilson, maybe that was 1676 01:26:23,280 --> 01:26:26,200 Speaker 5: an indicator when that move happened. It was during Seamus's 1677 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:29,200 Speaker 5: interview about an hour ago. When that move happened, I thought, oh, 1678 01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:32,240 Speaker 5: maybe Roman Wilson's not playing. He is playing. But I'm 1679 01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:35,200 Speaker 5: glad you mentioned Schiron Moore, Rich, because we haven't had 1680 01:26:35,240 --> 01:26:37,799 Speaker 5: a lot of time to kind of analyze his style. 1681 01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:41,280 Speaker 5: But he has been from what I gleaned the first 1682 01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:44,200 Speaker 5: two weeks here a little more on the conservative side 1683 01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,200 Speaker 5: with the fourth down conversions with some of the other stuff. Right, 1684 01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:50,720 Speaker 5: he like the buck stops with him, So is he 1685 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:54,000 Speaker 5: going to be aggressed like fourth and one from like midfield? 1686 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:55,760 Speaker 5: Are they going to be aggressive and go for it 1687 01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:58,280 Speaker 5: or are they going to play the conservative punt field 1688 01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 5: position pinya deep And I don't know if that's the 1689 01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 5: right strategy today. I think you need the explosive plays. 1690 01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:08,760 Speaker 5: You're not gonna get as many as you got last 1691 01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:10,600 Speaker 5: year in Michigan because you just like every play was 1692 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:13,639 Speaker 5: like a forty hour touchdown. But this year I think 1693 01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:15,599 Speaker 5: you need to be a little bit more aggressive because 1694 01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 5: to your point, Rich, I don't think the defenses, like 1695 01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:20,519 Speaker 5: the defenses are gonna win most of the time. So 1696 01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:22,760 Speaker 5: if you have an opportunity for it and short from 1697 01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,280 Speaker 5: the go zone, you don't know how many of those 1698 01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:27,479 Speaker 5: you're gonna get with the with the style that this 1699 01:27:27,520 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 5: game might be played, in, so we'll see what your 1700 01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:31,679 Speaker 5: own more. If he's got you know, rolling the dice 1701 01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 5: today could be the difference in win or lose for 1702 01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:34,480 Speaker 5: the Wolverines. 1703 01:27:34,760 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 2: It was funny Rich you started off saying, you know, 1704 01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:40,600 Speaker 2: the total was forty six or forty six and a 1705 01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:42,960 Speaker 2: half at the beginning of the show, and then we 1706 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:44,240 Speaker 2: gave our breakdown. 1707 01:27:44,560 --> 01:27:44,760 Speaker 1: Yep. 1708 01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:53,400 Speaker 4: And I really honestly feel like there are times where 1709 01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:57,160 Speaker 4: this show is moving the market the more the more 1710 01:27:57,200 --> 01:28:00,120 Speaker 4: we talk about you know, just look again, stop how 1711 01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 4: to make fights. And I think there are two things 1712 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,280 Speaker 4: that I love about both of these teams is the 1713 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:10,240 Speaker 4: underrated defenses. And so I think a lot of people 1714 01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:12,800 Speaker 4: are waking up this morning and they're turning on the 1715 01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:15,599 Speaker 4: radio or you know, they're watching the clips as they 1716 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:18,200 Speaker 4: filter through social media, and they're saying to themselves, well, 1717 01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 4: I'll be damned. Yeah, everybody concentrates on the offense, but. 1718 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 3: These are two really really. 1719 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:27,680 Speaker 4: Stout defenses, and so everybody wants to bet overs and 1720 01:28:28,040 --> 01:28:30,720 Speaker 4: you know, go higher on these these point totals, and 1721 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:32,920 Speaker 4: that's sexy and that's fun. It makes it you don't 1722 01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:35,759 Speaker 4: have to sweat these games as much. But the unders 1723 01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:38,920 Speaker 4: have great value especially in the spots like this big game, 1724 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:42,400 Speaker 4: a lot of tension, players play tight. I've been in 1725 01:28:42,439 --> 01:28:45,679 Speaker 4: these situations, especially in the first quarter, as you're sort 1726 01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 4: of you know, feeling each other out early rounds. 1727 01:28:48,479 --> 01:28:51,040 Speaker 3: It's it's the unders hitting these games. 1728 01:28:51,280 --> 01:28:53,400 Speaker 5: First quarter runners a good look, but a little peak 1729 01:28:53,439 --> 01:28:56,759 Speaker 5: behind the curtain here and again, I'm getting this information 1730 01:28:56,800 --> 01:29:02,360 Speaker 5: from professionals gamblers. This week, Thanksgiving Week is a unique 1731 01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:04,960 Speaker 5: week in the betting markets because a lot of the pros, 1732 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:09,120 Speaker 5: especially on Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday, they take off, 1733 01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:12,440 Speaker 5: you know, they have their bets in. They're not actively 1734 01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:15,880 Speaker 5: scouring the market on Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday. They're 1735 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:19,679 Speaker 5: taking some time off. So the public everyone's home, they're 1736 01:29:19,720 --> 01:29:23,200 Speaker 5: on their couch, they're betting the games. Thanksgiving week, the 1737 01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 5: public will have its say in moving the market a 1738 01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:31,520 Speaker 5: little bit more than the average week. So the favorites 1739 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:34,519 Speaker 5: usually on Thanksgiving Day are a very popular wag here 1740 01:29:34,560 --> 01:29:36,759 Speaker 5: and the number will always move in their direction, sometimes 1741 01:29:36,840 --> 01:29:39,519 Speaker 5: too much. And this game, particularly because it is a 1742 01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:41,960 Speaker 5: massive game, the public will have it say. So if 1743 01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:44,880 Speaker 5: there's a lot of over vibes with the public and 1744 01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:48,040 Speaker 5: this numbers moving up, maybe there's your indicator that there's 1745 01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:49,960 Speaker 5: value on the under, but we've seen the opposite this morning. 1746 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:52,639 Speaker 5: It's moved down, So I think that kind of tells 1747 01:29:52,680 --> 01:29:55,559 Speaker 5: you where the vibes are for this one here today. 1748 01:29:55,880 --> 01:30:01,240 Speaker 2: I like over Vibes as a good new indie punk rock, 1749 01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 2: you know what I mean?

Number eight. 1801 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:40,719 Speaker 2: Alabama against Auburn ugly. Last week before Auburn they lost, 1802 01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:46,360 Speaker 2: they got smacked by Jerry Kill's New Mexico State squad. 1803 01:32:47,160 --> 01:32:50,040 Speaker 2: So the question is could it be even uglier today 1804 01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:53,760 Speaker 2: against Alabama. It de bets how you look at it. 1805 01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:55,640 Speaker 2: It's got the potential to get away from them and 1806 01:32:55,680 --> 01:32:59,200 Speaker 2: be an ugly beat down. But you could say is 1807 01:32:59,240 --> 01:33:03,040 Speaker 2: it uglier to Alabama that it is to New Mexico State. 1808 01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:06,439 Speaker 2: You could go the other way and say it's gonna 1809 01:33:06,439 --> 01:33:10,760 Speaker 2: be a lot more memorable should Auburn get beaten decisively 1810 01:33:10,920 --> 01:33:14,920 Speaker 2: against Alabama, because these games carry a lot more weight. 1811 01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:18,840 Speaker 2: So yes would be my answer. It could absolutely be 1812 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:22,479 Speaker 2: uglier for Auburn today, But maybe it was a look 1813 01:33:22,520 --> 01:33:25,960 Speaker 2: ahead spot last week and they rise up. Some of 1814 01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:29,200 Speaker 2: these teams after embarrassing performances, they look a whole lot 1815 01:33:29,240 --> 01:33:31,920 Speaker 2: better than next week. But Auburn's work is cut out 1816 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:33,439 Speaker 2: for them today. There's no doubt about that. 1817 01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:35,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, there's no doubt about it. 1818 01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:39,840 Speaker 4: Look, I think it's fair, especially when you look at 1819 01:33:39,880 --> 01:33:44,880 Speaker 4: their three game win streak prior to New Mexico State bloodbath. 1820 01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:50,120 Speaker 4: They were scoring out a clip of thirty five plus 1821 01:33:50,160 --> 01:33:51,360 Speaker 4: points per game. 1822 01:33:51,560 --> 01:33:53,400 Speaker 3: Like they were performing well. 1823 01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:57,040 Speaker 4: And so it's a hiccup and it could just be 1824 01:33:57,120 --> 01:34:01,480 Speaker 4: a speed bump in what will be a continued progress 1825 01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:05,080 Speaker 4: for Hugh Freeze to continue working on that program. But 1826 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:12,160 Speaker 4: Alabama's good. And Alabama has won eleven of. 1827 01:34:12,200 --> 01:34:14,200 Speaker 3: The last fifteen of these. 1828 01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:17,799 Speaker 4: Iron Bowls, which I know you can't really bring history 1829 01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 4: into this situation, but they've dominated this series. And again 1830 01:34:22,640 --> 01:34:25,400 Speaker 4: they're the big boy on the playground and you have 1831 01:34:25,479 --> 01:34:27,840 Speaker 4: to play the game the way they want to play it. 1832 01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:29,720 Speaker 3: Jellen Milroe is. 1833 01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:33,439 Speaker 4: Good enough, I think, to lead this team into a 1834 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:36,000 Speaker 4: playoff should they get there. And it seems like they 1835 01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:38,880 Speaker 4: still have a heartbeat, they're still live in that conversation. 1836 01:34:40,439 --> 01:34:44,439 Speaker 4: It's it's gonna be a rough and rocky day. 1837 01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:46,200 Speaker 3: For Auburn here. 1838 01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:50,120 Speaker 5: It was a master class Jerry Kill coaching. 1839 01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:51,480 Speaker 2: Performance last Yeah. 1840 01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:54,400 Speaker 5: I mean it was like if you looked up the 1841 01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:59,240 Speaker 5: textbook play keep away from the big favorite and try 1842 01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:01,600 Speaker 5: to win the game by not letting them touch the 1843 01:35:01,640 --> 01:35:07,599 Speaker 5: ball strategy. Jerry Kill that performance last week. So how 1844 01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:12,599 Speaker 5: about this seven possessions for Auburn the entire game. Wow, 1845 01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:17,000 Speaker 5: they had fifteen plays in the first half and it 1846 01:35:17,120 --> 01:35:20,559 Speaker 5: was all run left, run right, first down, slow it down. 1847 01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:24,320 Speaker 5: And also it was a lot of Auburn getting pushed 1848 01:35:24,320 --> 01:35:28,479 Speaker 5: around up front. And that's scary. Now you could argue 1849 01:35:28,479 --> 01:35:31,160 Speaker 5: they were looking ahead to this game. This is like 1850 01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:33,840 Speaker 5: there's kids growing up in the state of Alabama right 1851 01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:35,880 Speaker 5: now that are in their backyard fantasizing about playing in 1852 01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:39,280 Speaker 5: this game, like this is the game. So I'm curious 1853 01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:41,840 Speaker 5: how they'd bounce back from that. When you focus on 1854 01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:45,040 Speaker 5: the Alabama side, I think Jalen Milroe is starting to 1855 01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:48,400 Speaker 5: round into a pretty darn good quarterback. And if you 1856 01:35:48,439 --> 01:35:51,680 Speaker 5: want to talk about the deep ball only, Jayden Daniels, 1857 01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:56,080 Speaker 5: according to Pro Football Focuses deep ball grades, throws a 1858 01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:58,400 Speaker 5: better deep ball this year, going twenty or more yards 1859 01:35:58,400 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 5: down the field. He has big time throws. Dalen Milroe 1860 01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:04,639 Speaker 5: does on throws going twenty or more yards down the field, 1861 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:08,120 Speaker 5: zero turnover where he plays. I mean, this kid is 1862 01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:11,120 Speaker 5: he is the Steph Curry of college football. Not great 1863 01:36:11,200 --> 01:36:15,200 Speaker 5: on the inside routes, the intermediate stuff, but throwing deep. 1864 01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:17,320 Speaker 5: Oh man, he might be the best passer in the 1865 01:36:17,360 --> 01:36:20,679 Speaker 5: country throwing deep. And it's not a great Bama receiver group. 1866 01:36:20,720 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 5: So can Auburn take that away? And man, can Peyton 1867 01:36:23,400 --> 01:36:27,080 Speaker 5: Thorn and this Auburn offense do anything against Alabama's defense? 1868 01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:29,320 Speaker 5: I think that's where this number may or may not 1869 01:36:29,439 --> 01:36:30,000 Speaker 5: be covered. 1870 01:36:30,240 --> 01:36:33,760 Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing is Auburn can't throw it nuh 1871 01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:38,519 Speaker 2: at all at all. And if Auburn can't run it 1872 01:36:38,680 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 2: very well today, ye, it was ugly last night for 1873 01:36:43,200 --> 01:36:46,799 Speaker 2: Oregon State. Oregon State could not run it against Oregon 1874 01:36:46,840 --> 01:36:51,920 Speaker 2: They gained fifty three yards and Dju is way better 1875 01:36:52,120 --> 01:36:54,640 Speaker 2: throwing the ball than Peyton Thorn is, and even that 1876 01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:58,000 Speaker 2: was a huge struggle for the Beaves. They just couldn't score. 1877 01:36:58,120 --> 01:37:00,360 Speaker 2: That's their bread and butter is running the ball. And 1878 01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:03,719 Speaker 2: Alabama their rush defense has been really solid this season, 1879 01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:06,400 Speaker 2: and so if they're able to really slow down that 1880 01:37:06,479 --> 01:37:10,360 Speaker 2: running attack the way New Mexico State did last week. Goodness, 1881 01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:12,799 Speaker 2: if New Mexico State can hold them to fourteen points, 1882 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:16,800 Speaker 2: Alabama sure can. It's just if Alabama can slow down 1883 01:37:16,800 --> 01:37:19,920 Speaker 2: that running attack, because that's really all Auburn does bring 1884 01:37:19,960 --> 01:37:21,240 Speaker 2: to the table offensively. 1885 01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:25,559 Speaker 4: And the reality is with Alabama is they've slowly kind 1886 01:37:25,560 --> 01:37:29,200 Speaker 4: of transitioned away from being a team that's all about 1887 01:37:29,240 --> 01:37:33,439 Speaker 4: defense every single year. Run great running backs throughout the 1888 01:37:33,439 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 4: course of the years, you know Ingram and Henry, I mean. 1889 01:37:37,560 --> 01:37:38,479 Speaker 3: The list goes on. 1890 01:37:38,880 --> 01:37:43,479 Speaker 4: They've They've produced tons of them, Najee Harris. It's when 1891 01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:46,479 Speaker 4: you look at when you look at what they have now, 1892 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:50,200 Speaker 4: they have a higher scoring, more pass happy offense. 1893 01:37:50,280 --> 01:37:52,240 Speaker 3: In fact, over the last. 1894 01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:56,200 Speaker 4: Four games, they're averaging forty seven eight points per game. 1895 01:37:56,320 --> 01:38:00,400 Speaker 4: During that span, they're they're the third highest scoring offense 1896 01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:05,120 Speaker 4: in that SEC. Like, Alabama has quietly made this transition, 1897 01:38:05,720 --> 01:38:08,639 Speaker 4: and they they can pile up points in a hurry. 1898 01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:11,839 Speaker 4: So as much as you want to slow down Auburn's offense, 1899 01:38:11,880 --> 01:38:13,960 Speaker 4: and you know, I do agree with you with what 1900 01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:16,920 Speaker 4: you said about their run game, I mean Alabama can score. 1901 01:38:16,960 --> 01:38:19,880 Speaker 4: I mean they're averaging nearly fifty points per game over 1902 01:38:19,880 --> 01:38:20,439 Speaker 4: the last four. 1903 01:38:21,320 --> 01:38:23,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, Hugh Freeze, I don't know what to make of 1904 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:27,160 Speaker 5: what he's done. I mean, Auburn like Peyton Thorns, like 1905 01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:31,160 Speaker 5: he has some experience. Auburn has players, but the scheme 1906 01:38:31,360 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 5: just is not good. To to Brian's point about Bama's defense, 1907 01:38:35,760 --> 01:38:39,080 Speaker 5: they are likely without their number two and number three 1908 01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:43,519 Speaker 5: leading tacklers today Deontay Loss and Jalen Key. Both of 1909 01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:46,840 Speaker 5: those guys have missed the last two games, and again 1910 01:38:46,880 --> 01:38:49,120 Speaker 5: college football injuries. Good luck trying to figure out if 1911 01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:51,840 Speaker 5: these kids are playing or not. But even if they 1912 01:38:51,840 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 5: do play, my guess is they're not one hundred percent. 1913 01:38:54,760 --> 01:38:57,280 Speaker 5: And staying in front of the change is key because 1914 01:38:57,479 --> 01:38:59,080 Speaker 5: that was like the number one thing in my notes 1915 01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:02,120 Speaker 5: about Auburn, like obvious passing down, shaky wide receiver group 1916 01:39:02,160 --> 01:39:05,360 Speaker 5: outside the top one ten in late down success rate. 1917 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:09,360 Speaker 5: So when Auburn gets into third and long, they really 1918 01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:13,720 Speaker 5: struggle outside the top one ten in late down success rate. 1919 01:39:13,800 --> 01:39:18,640 Speaker 5: That is the perfect stat to illustrate Auburn's inefficiencies at 1920 01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:20,840 Speaker 5: the wide receiver position. When they get to third and 1921 01:39:20,920 --> 01:39:22,960 Speaker 5: five or more, I mean, forget it, it's like might 1922 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:25,719 Speaker 5: as well be third and fifty. So That's what Auburn 1923 01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:28,439 Speaker 5: has to stay out of today, because man, this Bama 1924 01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:31,120 Speaker 5: offense is humming, right, and it's taken some time. Offensive 1925 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:35,120 Speaker 5: line was young, new quarterback this year, new offensive coordinator, 1926 01:39:35,280 --> 01:39:38,400 Speaker 5: not a great talented group of receivers. But over the 1927 01:39:38,479 --> 01:39:42,240 Speaker 5: last eight weeks since the Texas loss, they've won every 1928 01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:44,559 Speaker 5: game on their schedule, and they've looked better and better 1929 01:39:44,600 --> 01:39:48,519 Speaker 5: each week. So I would imagine Alabama wins with margin. 1930 01:39:48,560 --> 01:39:51,040 Speaker 5: But I'm assuming at some point the back door has 1931 01:39:51,080 --> 01:39:53,479 Speaker 5: slightly left a jar for Auburn to kick it through. 1932 01:39:53,520 --> 01:39:55,960 Speaker 5: If Peyton Thorn a company can figure out anything they 1933 01:39:56,040 --> 01:39:56,720 Speaker 5: do offensively. 1934 01:39:57,080 --> 01:39:59,840 Speaker 2: I like this. This is a great quote from Alabama 1935 01:40:00,280 --> 01:40:03,720 Speaker 2: offensive guard Tyler Booker. He was talking to some of 1936 01:40:03,760 --> 01:40:05,880 Speaker 2: his teammates and he said, I heard some of my 1937 01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:10,240 Speaker 2: teammates say that Jordan Hare it gives their their players superpowers. 1938 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:15,120 Speaker 2: You know. So you think about that atmosphere, this rivalry 1939 01:40:15,920 --> 01:40:19,240 Speaker 2: and embarrassing loss last week, there's gonna be a lot 1940 01:40:19,240 --> 01:40:19,719 Speaker 2: of emotion. 1941 01:40:21,920 --> 01:40:24,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right. 1942 01:40:24,080 --> 01:40:26,479 Speaker 2: So there's gonna be a lot of emotion. But look, man, 1943 01:40:26,840 --> 01:40:30,840 Speaker 2: I think sometimes we look too closely at emotion. Where 1944 01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:33,760 Speaker 2: an example, think of the Egg Bowl, right, think of 1945 01:40:33,800 --> 01:40:36,880 Speaker 2: all the emotion, Mississippi State runs out of the tunnel, 1946 01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:40,160 Speaker 2: their interim head coaches on an ATV. It's just e 1947 01:40:40,240 --> 01:40:44,040 Speaker 2: motion City, and then they score seven points and they 1948 01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:44,800 Speaker 2: lose by ten. 1949 01:40:44,840 --> 01:40:45,400 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 1950 01:40:45,479 --> 01:40:48,600 Speaker 2: Like, there's gonna be a lot of emotion, But do 1951 01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:51,519 Speaker 2: you have what it takes to keep the game close 1952 01:40:52,160 --> 01:40:54,920 Speaker 2: and to be arranged to pull an upset? I just 1953 01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:57,559 Speaker 2: don't see it. With Auburn man like they you got 1954 01:40:57,560 --> 01:41:00,479 Speaker 2: to run the ball almost like your army, and I 1955 01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:04,559 Speaker 2: don't see that happening against Alabama today at all. So 1956 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:07,719 Speaker 2: unless Peyton Thorn has an out of body experience throwing 1957 01:41:07,720 --> 01:41:09,760 Speaker 2: the ball, I just I don't see this being a 1958 01:41:09,800 --> 01:41:10,719 Speaker 2: competitive game. 1959 01:41:11,120 --> 01:41:15,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I'm siding with with you here, Brian. I Again, 1960 01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:20,920 Speaker 4: rivalries are built up to be special for good reason, because, 1961 01:41:21,720 --> 01:41:24,400 Speaker 4: like Jared just pointed out, there's kids growing up in 1962 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:27,680 Speaker 4: Alabama who their parents turn on the iron ball every 1963 01:41:27,760 --> 01:41:29,640 Speaker 4: year and they live and die on this thing like 1964 01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:30,080 Speaker 4: it is. 1965 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:31,759 Speaker 3: It divides the state. 1966 01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:36,960 Speaker 4: It's it's it's football country out there, and it means something. 1967 01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:39,120 Speaker 4: It means a lot, It means a lot more than something. 1968 01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:42,320 Speaker 4: But you gotta have the Johnny's. 1969 01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:45,320 Speaker 3: And Joe's you just do. You've got to have great 1970 01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:48,479 Speaker 3: coaching to compete with Alabama and Auburn this year. They 1971 01:41:48,560 --> 01:41:51,120 Speaker 3: just they just don't. They don't have what it takes 1972 01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 3: to stack up. Now that's on paper. 1973 01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:57,839 Speaker 4: Emotion comes comes out to play when things start going sideways. 1974 01:41:57,920 --> 01:42:02,240 Speaker 4: So if Alabama coughs up in turnover, if Alabama has 1975 01:42:02,280 --> 01:42:06,160 Speaker 4: an untimely interception or Muff's a kick in the kicking game, 1976 01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:09,680 Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, you breathe life into the Auburn. 1977 01:42:09,439 --> 01:42:11,200 Speaker 3: Tigers, especially on their home turf. 1978 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:13,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, we may have a different ball game, but most 1979 01:42:13,439 --> 01:42:17,240 Speaker 4: of the times, when you're this outmatched, it's not gonna 1980 01:42:17,240 --> 01:42:19,960 Speaker 4: go well for you, especially when Alabama has so much 1981 01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:20,519 Speaker 4: to play for. 1982 01:42:20,840 --> 01:42:23,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, we got a big game next week, right, Like, 1983 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:25,479 Speaker 5: there reaches a certain point and I know there's no 1984 01:42:25,680 --> 01:42:27,720 Speaker 5: letting off the gas in the Iron Bowl because to 1985 01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:30,599 Speaker 5: my prior points, it's the it's it's the freaking Iron Bowl. 1986 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:34,360 Speaker 5: There will be a point in the fourth quarter up 1987 01:42:34,400 --> 01:42:38,080 Speaker 5: three scores where Alabama's like okay, like like we do 1988 01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:40,400 Speaker 5: have bigger fish to fry here. This game is over. 1989 01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:43,600 Speaker 5: And if you get that fourteen and what did I 1990 01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:46,200 Speaker 5: just say? About the public having their say on Thanksgiving week. 1991 01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:49,160 Speaker 5: Maybe we see a fourteen and a half before this 1992 01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:52,719 Speaker 5: game kicks off. That's where I think the Auburn value 1993 01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:55,559 Speaker 5: comes into play. Because if it's a you know, twenty 1994 01:42:55,600 --> 01:42:58,120 Speaker 5: one to nothing game in the fourth quarter and Alabama's 1995 01:42:58,160 --> 01:43:00,000 Speaker 5: all right, we're good and an Auburn sticks that last 1996 01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:01,960 Speaker 5: one in the end zone to make it twenty one seven, well, 1997 01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:05,160 Speaker 5: you know, you know, you know what the betting window 1998 01:43:05,200 --> 01:43:06,360 Speaker 5: is gonna look like. It's gonna be a lot of 1999 01:43:06,439 --> 01:43:08,599 Speaker 5: upset Alabama people, a lot of happy offer people. 2000 01:43:09,520 --> 01:43:14,160 Speaker 2: Well you talk about happy people there, Jared. And that's 2001 01:43:14,200 --> 01:43:19,240 Speaker 2: what happens each time Isaac Lowenkron graces the microphone with 2002 01:43:19,400 --> 01:43:25,120 Speaker 2: information and charisma, just a sparkling combination. If I could 2003 01:43:25,160 --> 01:43:27,599 Speaker 2: say so myself, I low with the latest what's going on? 2004 01:43:27,640 --> 01:43:31,200 Speaker 9: But oh you are too kind as always, Brian, and 2005 01:43:31,280 --> 01:43:34,639 Speaker 9: we're too excited because as we speak, we are now 2006 01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:39,840 Speaker 9: just forty minutes away from kickoff between Michigan and Ohio 2007 01:43:39,960 --> 01:43:43,679 Speaker 9: State from Ann Arbor. They're one hundred and nineteenth all 2008 01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:47,679 Speaker 9: time meeting, the Buckeyes ranked second, Michigan is ranked third. 2009 01:43:47,800 --> 01:43:50,680 Speaker 9: Both teams eleven and oh including eight and oh in 2010 01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:53,880 Speaker 9: the Big ten. Here was Ohio State head coach Ryan 2011 01:43:53,960 --> 01:43:56,559 Speaker 9: Day a short time ago with Fox Sports Tom Ronaldi. 2012 01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:58,439 Speaker 6: You can't let the motion get in the best yet, 2013 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:00,640 Speaker 6: you know, and that's why you try all year for 2014 01:44:00,680 --> 01:44:03,080 Speaker 6: this moment. So we had a great week, good preparation, 2015 01:44:03,479 --> 01:44:05,479 Speaker 6: the guys that woke up with great energy. Now we 2016 01:44:05,560 --> 01:44:07,320 Speaker 6: gotta go put on the fields and it's gonna take. 2017 01:44:07,160 --> 01:44:09,960 Speaker 3: Four quarters, So you want to start fast. That's a 2018 01:44:09,960 --> 01:44:10,679 Speaker 3: big part of the game. 2019 01:44:10,720 --> 01:44:12,400 Speaker 6: But but we know it's gonna go four quarters and 2020 01:44:12,560 --> 01:44:13,559 Speaker 6: it's gonna be a physical game. 2021 01:44:13,600 --> 01:44:15,120 Speaker 3: We gotta run the ball. We gotta stop the run. 2022 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:17,160 Speaker 9: All right, guys, with that in mine, I'm gonna put 2023 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:19,160 Speaker 9: the three of you on the spot.

It's 2036 01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:55,200 Speaker 2: Sala shaped it off for Black Friday. 2037 01:44:55,240 --> 01:44:58,719 Speaker 5: Yes, Black Friday. Dark is what it was. That's probably 2038 01:44:58,760 --> 01:44:59,960 Speaker 5: is that Jets game was yesterday. 2039 01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:04,280 Speaker 4: It's the black like you know, the color of his 2040 01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:06,920 Speaker 4: beard is that black that sometimes they paint on cars 2041 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:09,479 Speaker 4: where it's where it's so black you can't even make 2042 01:45:09,479 --> 01:45:11,000 Speaker 4: out other details of his face. 2043 01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:12,479 Speaker 3: You're just like, I'm looking into. 2044 01:45:12,280 --> 01:45:15,160 Speaker 5: The abyss darker than Orenberger's black shirt that he wears 2045 01:45:15,200 --> 01:45:15,599 Speaker 5: every week. 2046 01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:16,920 Speaker 3: That's your that's right. 2047 01:45:17,640 --> 01:45:20,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just so obvious. 2048 01:45:20,080 --> 01:45:21,040 Speaker 3: So we share black. 2049 01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:24,680 Speaker 9: We are four for four, apparently a lot less controversial 2050 01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:27,760 Speaker 9: than I thought it would be. On Friday night, number six, 2051 01:45:27,880 --> 01:45:31,160 Speaker 9: Oregon defeated sixteenth ranked Oregon State thirty one to seven. 2052 01:45:31,360 --> 01:45:34,479 Speaker 9: So Oregon advances to the PAC twelve championship game against 2053 01:45:34,520 --> 01:45:37,160 Speaker 9: the Washington Huskies. We do have an NFL note today, 2054 01:45:37,200 --> 01:45:40,320 Speaker 9: New York Jets head coach the aforementioned Robert Sala said 2055 01:45:40,320 --> 01:45:42,640 Speaker 9: the Tim Boyle will once again start a quarterback for 2056 01:45:42,680 --> 01:45:45,400 Speaker 9: the Jets next week against the Atlanta Falcons. 2057 01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:48,360 Speaker 2: Fellas, it's all yours, thank you. I low always a 2058 01:45:48,360 --> 01:45:51,439 Speaker 2: pleasure but it is Fox Sports Radio's Countdown to Kickoff, 2059 01:45:51,520 --> 01:45:55,400 Speaker 2: presented by Bett MGM. Just twenty five minutes away from 2060 01:45:55,479 --> 01:45:59,439 Speaker 2: kickoff right now, beautiful stuff. We'll go rapid fire in 2061 01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:02,160 Speaker 2: terms of I shouldn't say that because that's the last segment. 2062 01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:04,960 Speaker 2: Let's go quick hits. How about that? Hey, you keep 2063 01:46:04,960 --> 01:46:09,360 Speaker 2: it drill? Yeah, two minute drill. Clemson is at South Carolina. 2064 01:46:09,439 --> 01:46:13,280 Speaker 2: I love Dabo Sweeney, who's like, buy your stock right now? 2065 01:46:13,560 --> 01:46:17,920 Speaker 2: Is that a basement bargain price by Clemson stocket? They've 2066 01:46:17,920 --> 01:46:21,040 Speaker 2: been better lately man, and this one two combo they're 2067 01:46:21,080 --> 01:46:23,840 Speaker 2: running back game with MafA and Will Shipley. It's been 2068 01:46:23,880 --> 01:46:27,559 Speaker 2: on point, especially as of late, going up against South 2069 01:46:27,600 --> 01:46:30,960 Speaker 2: Carolina today. But you gotta lay seven in the hook 2070 01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:34,040 Speaker 2: in a rivalry game against South Carolina, who quietly has 2071 01:46:34,040 --> 01:46:37,240 Speaker 2: been better, been better lately. I know they're not like 2072 01:46:37,400 --> 01:46:40,479 Speaker 2: just world beaters here, but they've been better. So when 2073 01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:42,599 Speaker 2: you handicap this game, what are you guys looking at here? 2074 01:46:42,880 --> 01:46:46,080 Speaker 4: I'm looking the same place you were just talking about. 2075 01:46:46,160 --> 01:46:48,320 Speaker 4: It's it's the run game and the matchup on the 2076 01:46:48,360 --> 01:46:51,000 Speaker 4: ground between these two game, these two teams, and I 2077 01:46:51,040 --> 01:46:54,280 Speaker 4: think the game Cocks are really going to struggle moving 2078 01:46:54,320 --> 01:46:57,280 Speaker 4: the ball against Clemson because they've struggled all year, averaging 2079 01:46:57,479 --> 01:47:02,280 Speaker 4: under ninety yards per game on the Meanwhile, Clemson one 2080 01:47:02,439 --> 01:47:06,000 Speaker 4: hundred and seventy six plus yards on the ground per game. 2081 01:47:06,320 --> 01:47:09,920 Speaker 4: That tandem out of the backfield, staring down the opportunity 2082 01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:12,759 Speaker 4: to be an eight win season after a disappointing start. 2083 01:47:13,400 --> 01:47:15,240 Speaker 3: They haven't lost at home. 2084 01:47:15,320 --> 01:47:17,320 Speaker 4: I know that doesn't matter here because they're taking the 2085 01:47:17,320 --> 01:47:20,679 Speaker 4: show on the road, dusting off the road Jerseys after 2086 01:47:20,720 --> 01:47:23,640 Speaker 4: a three game stint at home, but Clemson looking to 2087 01:47:23,680 --> 01:47:28,040 Speaker 4: finish strong. Dabbo looking to him improve the couch pitch 2088 01:47:28,120 --> 01:47:32,200 Speaker 4: on the recruiting trial this offseason. I think I think 2089 01:47:32,240 --> 01:47:34,120 Speaker 4: the Tigers look pretty good in this matchup. 2090 01:47:34,439 --> 01:47:38,080 Speaker 5: Dabo's like that used car salesman trying to get you 2091 01:47:38,200 --> 01:47:41,320 Speaker 5: a spring for the rims on the car. You know, 2092 01:47:41,439 --> 01:47:43,400 Speaker 5: after you've already gone through all the paper, He's like, 2093 01:47:43,400 --> 01:47:44,840 Speaker 5: you know what buy? But I got something else for 2094 01:47:44,880 --> 01:47:47,559 Speaker 5: you here you might be interested in. This is a 2095 01:47:47,560 --> 01:47:54,040 Speaker 5: classic motivational battle because South Carolina on five wins, needs 2096 01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 5: a sixth win to be Bowl eligible, and it's again 2097 01:47:58,040 --> 01:48:00,000 Speaker 5: one of those spots where I think the motivation is 2098 01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:03,559 Speaker 5: kind of misconstrued like, obviously South Carolina's motivated like it's 2099 01:48:03,600 --> 01:48:07,280 Speaker 5: the Clemson. But Clemson's probably pretty motivated too, you know why, 2100 01:48:07,320 --> 01:48:09,559 Speaker 5: because they got their butts kicked in this game last year. 2101 01:48:09,640 --> 01:48:11,479 Speaker 5: So if you're betting South Carolina or if you're betting 2102 01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:14,360 Speaker 5: any other five win team hoping to get that six win, 2103 01:48:14,439 --> 01:48:17,000 Speaker 5: hoping to get a boost, because they need to win 2104 01:48:17,520 --> 01:48:19,639 Speaker 5: to get bowl eligible, well, just because the team needs 2105 01:48:19,640 --> 01:48:21,400 Speaker 5: to win doesn't mean they're gonna win. Clemson. I think 2106 01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:23,519 Speaker 5: Clemson roles in this game. I think the running game 2107 01:48:23,560 --> 01:48:26,000 Speaker 5: for Clemson against South Carolina's defense is a big edge. 2108 01:48:26,080 --> 01:48:29,000 Speaker 5: And again, Clemson lost this game last year. If South 2109 01:48:29,000 --> 01:48:31,320 Speaker 5: Carolina lost last year, I would have given a little 2110 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:34,200 Speaker 5: more stock to the game Cocks upset, But the fact 2111 01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:36,439 Speaker 5: that Clemson lost this game last year makes me think 2112 01:48:36,479 --> 01:48:39,040 Speaker 5: they are going to be fired up in this one. 2113 01:48:39,080 --> 01:48:43,280 Speaker 5: And I think unfortunately Cocky will not be bowling this season. 2114 01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:48,320 Speaker 2: That sounds like a T shirt somehow. And we'll stick 2115 01:48:48,520 --> 01:48:52,400 Speaker 2: with the acc here real fast, North Carolina against NC State. 2116 01:48:52,920 --> 01:48:56,519 Speaker 2: NC State the team that's ranked right wolf packs twenty two. 2117 01:48:56,560 --> 01:48:59,599 Speaker 2: North Carolina with Drake May and company. They're unranked. Both 2118 01:48:59,600 --> 01:49:02,840 Speaker 2: teams are eight and three. But uh, a home dog 2119 01:49:02,960 --> 01:49:06,519 Speaker 2: with NC State. And here's the thing, man, when you 2120 01:49:06,560 --> 01:49:10,160 Speaker 2: look at Amari and Hampton, the North Carolina running back, 2121 01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:13,720 Speaker 2: he has been sensational, especially the last six games home 2122 01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:16,559 Speaker 2: run potential, It's been over one hundred yards rushing in 2123 01:49:16,600 --> 01:49:20,439 Speaker 2: each game. NC State plays real defense, so that matchup 2124 01:49:20,520 --> 01:49:24,479 Speaker 2: right there with North Carolina offensively, specifically the running game. 2125 01:49:24,600 --> 01:49:26,559 Speaker 2: I want to see how well they're able to run 2126 01:49:26,560 --> 01:49:30,280 Speaker 2: it against the wolf Pack, who is stingy, stingy against 2127 01:49:30,280 --> 01:49:32,240 Speaker 2: the rush. But that is a great matchup with North 2128 01:49:32,240 --> 01:49:33,280 Speaker 2: Carolina has the ball. 2129 01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:36,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no question about it. It's gonna be uh, 2130 01:49:37,040 --> 01:49:39,720 Speaker 3: It's gonna be a fun weekend. Boys. This is uh. 2131 01:49:39,920 --> 01:49:43,360 Speaker 4: This is one of the better, better slated games that 2132 01:49:43,439 --> 01:49:45,519 Speaker 4: we've gotten to enjoy to close out a season a 2133 01:49:45,520 --> 01:49:48,120 Speaker 4: long time. And I know it's rivalry week, but this 2134 01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:52,240 Speaker 4: Michigan Ohio State game has This has more juice than 2135 01:49:52,320 --> 01:49:54,839 Speaker 4: I think. I don't want to say ever, we always 2136 01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:58,200 Speaker 4: do that, we're always so hyperbolic, but I'm so looking 2137 01:49:58,240 --> 01:50:00,920 Speaker 4: forward to kick off here because this is the Big 2138 01:50:00,960 --> 01:50:05,760 Speaker 4: Ten championship and this is hugely consequential looking forward to 2139 01:50:05,920 --> 01:50:06,880 Speaker 4: the playoff picture. 2140 01:50:07,600 --> 01:50:10,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think UNC is gonna try to get like 2141 01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:12,599 Speaker 5: that's what we see that that's a good, good angle. 2142 01:50:12,640 --> 01:50:14,640 Speaker 5: I think with player props down the stretch, UNC is 2143 01:50:14,680 --> 01:50:16,400 Speaker 5: gonna try to get Drake May on display as much 2144 01:50:16,400 --> 01:50:19,040 Speaker 5: as possible. The problem is NC State's defense pretty darn good, 2145 01:50:20,280 --> 01:50:23,320 Speaker 5: so I don't know how much of an impact he'll have. 2146 01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:28,680 Speaker 5: It kind of reminds me of last year with the Stroud, 2147 01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:32,519 Speaker 5: the Stroud Brice Young thing down the stretch. You know 2148 01:50:32,720 --> 01:50:35,599 Speaker 5: which one of these quarterbacks, Williams or Drake May are 2149 01:50:35,640 --> 01:50:37,320 Speaker 5: gonna kind of be the guy at the end of 2150 01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:38,640 Speaker 5: the rain. But we have plenty of time over the 2151 01:50:38,680 --> 01:50:40,719 Speaker 5: next three months four months to break that down before 2152 01:50:40,760 --> 01:50:43,400 Speaker 5: the draft. But my guess is UNC is going to 2153 01:50:43,560 --> 01:50:47,759 Speaker 5: try to put Drake in the most advantageous position possible 2154 01:50:47,800 --> 01:50:50,920 Speaker 5: because UNC getting a number one pick in football would 2155 01:50:50,920 --> 01:50:54,240 Speaker 5: be a pretty darn big story around those parts. So 2156 01:50:54,720 --> 01:50:57,320 Speaker 5: I think they will do everything possible against the tough 2157 01:50:57,400 --> 01:50:59,800 Speaker 5: enc State defense to put him in a favorable spot. 2158 01:51:00,360 --> 01:51:03,320 Speaker 3: And also it helps with nil all. 2159 01:51:03,240 --> 01:51:05,400 Speaker 5: Of it across the board, transfer portal Nil. It's a 2160 01:51:05,400 --> 01:51:07,519 Speaker 5: different world today with these with these teams. 2161 01:51:07,680 --> 01:51:11,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got Rich Hornberger chomping at the bit. Huh, 2162 01:51:13,040 --> 01:51:16,120 Speaker 2: Penn State all American. We've got Jared Smith chomping at 2163 01:51:16,120 --> 01:51:20,320 Speaker 2: the bit FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian, No, you guessed it, 2164 01:51:20,439 --> 01:51:23,200 Speaker 2: chopping at the bit. We're all doing that, chomping on 2165 01:51:23,200 --> 01:51:25,479 Speaker 2: a bone right now. We're all chopping. Oh man, We 2166 01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:28,719 Speaker 2: got picks, go lore to make. Right around the corner, 2167 01:51:28,840 --> 01:51:31,960 Speaker 2: rapid fire, Jared's play of the day. We'll get to 2168 01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:35,880 Speaker 2: it buffet style as the ball buffet rolls on here 2169 01:51:36,120 --> 01:51:39,200 Speaker 2: just eighteen minutes from kickoff. It is Fox Sports Radios 2170 01:51:39,240 --> 01:51:43,799 Speaker 2: Countdown to Kickoff, presented by Bet MGM. Only eleven measley 2171 01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:47,439 Speaker 2: minutes away until kickoff. It is Fox Sports Radios Countdown 2172 01:51:47,479 --> 01:51:51,519 Speaker 2: to Kickoff, presented by Bett MGM. Props to the crew, 2173 01:51:51,680 --> 01:51:57,560 Speaker 2: our main man, Bo Benson, trusted producer, Chris Purfet, technical producer, 2174 01:51:57,600 --> 01:52:01,360 Speaker 2: doing a great job, Isaac Lowenkron and only crushing it. 2175 01:52:01,840 --> 01:52:06,280 Speaker 2: Top of the hour. Up on game, LaVar Arrington, TJ Hushman, 2176 01:52:06,400 --> 01:52:11,280 Speaker 2: Zada Plaxico Burris. They'll have all the ball for you 2177 01:52:11,360 --> 01:52:14,720 Speaker 2: here as we roll on with a loaded weekend. Hey, 2178 01:52:14,720 --> 01:52:20,360 Speaker 2: we got picks to make. Let's do this rapid fire, 2179 01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:23,200 Speaker 2: all right, Jared, We'll start with you, what are you 2180 01:52:23,240 --> 01:52:23,880 Speaker 2: thinking today? 2181 01:52:24,120 --> 01:52:25,920 Speaker 5: All right, Well, I gave you a ball State money 2182 01:52:25,920 --> 01:52:28,479 Speaker 5: line earlier during the parlay platter segment. I think if 2183 01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:30,600 Speaker 5: I'm willing to bet them on the money line, absolutely 2184 01:52:30,680 --> 01:52:32,400 Speaker 5: willing to take four and a half points. I think 2185 01:52:32,479 --> 01:52:34,799 Speaker 5: of the money line plays, this is my favorite against 2186 01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,320 Speaker 5: the spread because the total super low in this game, 2187 01:52:37,400 --> 01:52:38,960 Speaker 5: just thirty four and a half. So those four and 2188 01:52:39,000 --> 01:52:41,080 Speaker 5: a half points for ball State very valuable. We talked 2189 01:52:41,120 --> 01:52:43,000 Speaker 5: about it. They covered five in a row, They've got 2190 01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:44,640 Speaker 5: one of the best defenses in the country over the 2191 01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:47,479 Speaker 5: last few weeks, and Miami Ohio on deck the MAC 2192 01:52:47,520 --> 01:52:50,400 Speaker 5: championship game, so we'll see how fired up they are 2193 01:52:50,479 --> 01:52:52,639 Speaker 5: for this one as they look ahead to the conference 2194 01:52:52,680 --> 01:52:55,240 Speaker 5: championship next week. Old Dominion is laying two and a 2195 01:52:55,280 --> 01:52:57,320 Speaker 5: half against Georgia State. This is another one of those 2196 01:52:57,600 --> 01:53:01,120 Speaker 5: Bowl motivation angles that I like. Why well, Georgia State 2197 01:53:01,200 --> 01:53:04,200 Speaker 5: already has six wins and they have been playing really 2198 01:53:04,240 --> 01:53:07,920 Speaker 5: bad football over the last few weeks. Four straight games 2199 01:53:07,920 --> 01:53:11,360 Speaker 5: they've allowed forty plus. They got lasted by LSU last week. 2200 01:53:11,520 --> 01:53:13,840 Speaker 5: I think ODU, who by the way, has only gone 2201 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:17,799 Speaker 5: bowling twice in their entire program history, will win today 2202 01:53:17,880 --> 01:53:20,439 Speaker 5: minus two and a half at home against Georgia State. 2203 01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 3: All right, I love that. 2204 01:53:23,120 --> 01:53:25,439 Speaker 4: Let's talk about the biggest game on the board today, 2205 01:53:25,520 --> 01:53:29,519 Speaker 4: kicking off in just minutes, Ohio State at Michigan total 2206 01:53:29,560 --> 01:53:31,000 Speaker 4: set of forty five and a half. 2207 01:53:31,240 --> 01:53:32,599 Speaker 3: We talked about this earlier. 2208 01:53:32,640 --> 01:53:35,600 Speaker 4: I think this game is going to be a defensive slugfest. 2209 01:53:35,880 --> 01:53:38,320 Speaker 4: It's going to be a rock fight. I'm taking the 2210 01:53:38,400 --> 01:53:42,360 Speaker 4: under there. Alabama favored thirteen and a half on the 2211 01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:46,920 Speaker 4: road at Auburn the Iron Bolt, no motivation needed. This 2212 01:53:46,960 --> 01:53:49,960 Speaker 4: is the game before the big game for Alabama. He's 2213 01:53:49,960 --> 01:53:53,640 Speaker 4: off that Belichick coaching tree. As Nick Saban, He's going 2214 01:53:53,720 --> 01:53:55,920 Speaker 4: to want to get his team right before they head 2215 01:53:55,920 --> 01:53:59,519 Speaker 4: into the SEC Championship game. I got Alabama covering the 2216 01:53:59,560 --> 01:54:01,559 Speaker 4: thirteen and a half points. They're favored by. 2217 01:54:01,479 --> 01:54:03,240 Speaker 3: San Jose State at UNLV. 2218 01:54:03,880 --> 01:54:06,599 Speaker 4: This is a sneaky low line for two of the 2219 01:54:06,600 --> 01:54:10,599 Speaker 4: best offenses in the Mount West fifty eight and a half. 2220 01:54:10,840 --> 01:54:13,120 Speaker 3: I'm taking the over on that total. 2221 01:54:13,520 --> 01:54:17,439 Speaker 4: Really productive offenses with the Rebels, pen, the Spartans bolt. 2222 01:54:18,520 --> 01:54:21,720 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm looking at the Ohio State Michigan game. Give 2223 01:54:21,720 --> 01:54:24,000 Speaker 2: me the three points. I'll roll with the buck Guys, 2224 01:54:24,360 --> 01:54:27,599 Speaker 2: this Michigan offense has been sputtering the last couple of games. 2225 01:54:28,160 --> 01:54:32,360 Speaker 2: I don't trust their running attack against Ohio State. I 2226 01:54:32,360 --> 01:54:35,480 Speaker 2: certainly don't trust JJ McCarthy to do major damage. So 2227 01:54:36,080 --> 01:54:39,680 Speaker 2: I think Ohio State plus three is the right side. 2228 01:54:40,080 --> 01:54:44,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Alabama wide receiver Jermaine Burton. Give 2229 01:54:44,280 --> 01:54:47,360 Speaker 2: me over fifty six and a half receiving yards. I 2230 01:54:47,360 --> 01:54:50,240 Speaker 2: think Jalen Milroe dials up a deep ball. He's gone 2231 01:54:50,280 --> 01:54:53,400 Speaker 2: over this number in for the last five games. I 2232 01:54:53,520 --> 01:54:55,920 Speaker 2: like that one. And then I'm also gonna go with 2233 01:54:56,280 --> 01:54:58,960 Speaker 2: a running back over here. Give me Georgia running back 2234 01:54:59,080 --> 01:55:02,840 Speaker 2: Kendall Milton. I love this dude. He runs hard, He's 2235 01:55:02,840 --> 01:55:05,240 Speaker 2: a change of pace guy. I got to take over 2236 01:55:05,320 --> 01:55:09,000 Speaker 2: sixty five and a half rushing yards. Georgia Tech just 2237 01:55:09,080 --> 01:55:11,800 Speaker 2: does not stop the rush. They are allergic to stopping 2238 01:55:11,800 --> 01:55:15,880 Speaker 2: the rush. Second half many more rushing opportunities. So I'm 2239 01:55:15,920 --> 01:55:19,520 Speaker 2: gonna go with Kendall Milton over sixty five and a half. 2240 01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:23,560 Speaker 2: All right, let's do this. 2241 01:55:23,560 --> 01:55:25,720 Speaker 1: This is the best play of the day. 2242 01:55:25,760 --> 01:55:29,400 Speaker 2: It's a touchdown to that, all right, Jared, what do 2243 01:55:29,440 --> 01:55:30,240 Speaker 2: you have for us? 2244 01:55:30,720 --> 01:55:34,920 Speaker 5: Channeling the inner Shamous Special here, we're going Jacksonville State 2245 01:55:35,200 --> 01:55:39,440 Speaker 5: minus two and a half against New Mexico State. This 2246 01:55:39,520 --> 01:55:42,240 Speaker 5: line is currently available at BETMGM. I actually betted at 2247 01:55:42,280 --> 01:55:44,240 Speaker 5: minus one earlier in the week. We've seen a lot 2248 01:55:44,240 --> 01:55:47,000 Speaker 5: of money on Jacksonville State and here's why. So the 2249 01:55:47,080 --> 01:55:49,280 Speaker 5: game Cocks are on eight wins, they're six and one 2250 01:55:49,320 --> 01:55:51,760 Speaker 5: in the conference, but because of the stupid NCAA rules, 2251 01:55:52,080 --> 01:55:55,280 Speaker 5: denied postseason eligibility, which means they can't play in the 2252 01:55:55,280 --> 01:55:57,560 Speaker 5: Conference USA championship game next week. If they would have 2253 01:55:57,560 --> 01:56:00,240 Speaker 5: won this game, they would have played Liberty next week 2254 01:56:00,360 --> 01:56:03,320 Speaker 5: in what would have been a wild Conference USA title game. Instead, 2255 01:56:03,720 --> 01:56:05,920 Speaker 5: this is the last game of the season and New 2256 01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:09,120 Speaker 5: Mexico State is coming off of a three touchdown win 2257 01:56:09,360 --> 01:56:13,680 Speaker 5: at Auburn as a twenty two point dog. So I 2258 01:56:13,920 --> 01:56:17,320 Speaker 5: just don't understand how New Mexico State gets up for 2259 01:56:17,360 --> 01:56:20,520 Speaker 5: this game. They are already in the Conference WHOSA title 2260 01:56:20,520 --> 01:56:23,880 Speaker 5: game next week by default because Jacksonville State can't go 2261 01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:26,480 Speaker 5: because of the stupid nc DOUBLEA. So I think the 2262 01:56:26,520 --> 01:56:29,320 Speaker 5: game Cocks are gonna put on a big number in 2263 01:56:29,400 --> 01:56:31,560 Speaker 5: this one. They're on the road, which I don't love, 2264 01:56:31,640 --> 01:56:34,160 Speaker 5: but I just love this number underneath the field goal 2265 01:56:34,240 --> 01:56:36,560 Speaker 5: Jacksonville State minus two and a half at New Mexico State. 2266 01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:38,200 Speaker 5: Play of the day. 2267 01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:42,040 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, I like what you with you bringing 2268 01:56:42,040 --> 01:56:45,160 Speaker 2: that up because last week it was all about James Madison. Yeah, 2269 01:56:45,320 --> 01:56:48,320 Speaker 2: they're not eligible either, but Jacksonville State they got a 2270 01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:50,120 Speaker 2: crack man. Well yeah, he wins. 2271 01:56:50,280 --> 01:56:51,520 Speaker 5: Pretty good year for at Rod. 2272 01:56:51,600 --> 01:56:54,760 Speaker 2: Huh, that's so silly. I like that stupid NC double 2273 01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:58,520 Speaker 2: A another band name right, stupid, the very popular group. 2274 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:02,880 Speaker 2: Someone's gonna all right, everybody enjoyed the ball. Good hanging 2275 01:57:02,920 --> 01:57:06,480 Speaker 2: with you guys. As always. We kick it off with 2276 01:57:07,120 --> 01:57:09,880 Speaker 2: Ohio State and Michigan on Big Fox in a couple 2277 01:57:09,920 --> 01:57:10,360 Speaker 2: of minutes.
