Final play 11 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: from scrimmage anyway, Ohio State was able to beat Notre Dame, 12 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: well Notre Dame, maybe with some heartbreak of their own 13 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: being given to Duke. Notre Dame was trailing for fourteen 14 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 2: thirteen with under a minute to go. They have just 15 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 2: scored a touchdown as Desager told you to go up 16 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 2: twenty one to fourteen. Duke has the ball, all three timeouts, 17 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 2: thirty one seconds left. Duke will need a touchdown to win. 18 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: Das Bartin First of all, how you doing, man? Everything good? 19 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? 20 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 3: For the most part, Yeah, normal, cold, that hits me 21 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 3: right at the beginning of October, but outside of that 22 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 3: doing pretty well. Yeah, you're right, and I've actually been 23 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: kind of shocked at how tough it's been to move 24 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: the ball for Notre Dame, considering how they looked early 25 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 3: in the season. It really does show that the opponent 26 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: matters when it comes to the defense on the field. 27 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 3: Because after the first game you were talking, you were 28 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 3: raving about Hartman, and you weren't wrong to be raving 29 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 3: about Hartman. And over the last two weeks, boy it, 30 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 3: points have been at a premium against Ohio State, and 31 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 3: I'm impressed with the Duke defense in this game, even 32 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 3: though it looks like they may be coming up on 33 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: the short end. 34 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what. We will keep you updated. 35 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 2: As this game is now at eighteen seconds left, Duke 36 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: does have the ball. Looks like their star quarterback Riley 37 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 2: Leonard maybe down with an injury. Jason, as you said, 38 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 2: points at a premium in this game, there was one 39 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 2: place they were not well, there's a couple of places 40 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 2: they weren't at a premium today and we will start 41 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: in Boulder, Colorado. So it was the big noon game. 42 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: It ended a while ago, but it is, in my opinion, 43 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: still the biggest story of the day. USC holds on 44 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 2: to beat the Colorado Buffaloes forty eight to forty one 45 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 2: is the final score. But that last part is I 46 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: think the biggest story out of college football to this 47 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 2: point in the evening is that Colorado Buffalo's, a week 48 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 2: after only scoring six points at Outson Stadium against the 49 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: Oregon Ducks, put up five hundred sixty four yards of 50 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,119 Speaker 2: total offense, including one hundred and ninety three yards rushing, 51 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: even in a loss. So we'll get to Colorado next segment. 52 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: We'll hear from Dion Sanders. And by the way, Riley Leonard, 53 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: the star quarterback for Duke, is down and it does 54 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: not look good. We'll keep you updated. We hope for 55 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 2: the best for him, but it looked like either an 56 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 2: ankle or something in the lower body. Duke again trailing 57 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: twenty one to fourteen, eighteen seconds to go in this game. Again, 58 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: we'll keep you updated. But Jason, let's go back to Boulder, 59 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: as the USC offense is as good as advertised. Unfortunately, 60 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 2: another game we were on air for last week, USC's 61 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 2: defense struggled against Arizona State and it was only worse today, Jason. 62 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 3: When your quarterback throws for over four hundred yards and 63 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 3: six touchdowns, that's not a game you should win by 64 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: a touchdown. That's just I don't know how much more 65 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 3: blunt to put it than that. This game should have 66 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 3: been a blowout, and it was until it wasn't. And 67 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 3: the reason it wasn't is because Lincoln Rowley's defense yet again, 68 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 3: like it doesn't matter who it is, seemingly who is 69 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: the coordinator of it right now, it's grinch and it's 70 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 3: not good at all. 71 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: But that was the talk in. 72 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 3: The offseason was, boy, this defense is going to be 73 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 3: committed this year. It's going to be better. Look, Colorado 74 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 3: scored on everybody other than Oregon this year. I get 75 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 3: that this is still a real black mark when you 76 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 3: look at USC going forward, because there are a lot 77 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 3: of teams that are gonna be able to take advantage 78 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: even more so than Colorado, that also have much better 79 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: defensive players, and they're gonna make it even more challenging 80 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 3: on Caleb Williams to do the crazy, just insane stuff 81 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: that he does. 82 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: On a weekly basis. 83 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 3: But they are putting again just like last year, they're 84 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: putting so much on his shoulders, and he's capable of 85 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: it as long as he can stay healthy. But this, 86 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 3: I look at this and I say this does not 87 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 3: portend well for USC in terms of the College Football 88 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: Playoff and the national champion because they really are they 89 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 3: feel like they are fifty percent there, and then that 90 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 3: defense is just something you flat out cannot trust. 91 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: By the way, we do have a final in Durham, 92 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: North Carolina Notre Dame with the go ahead score thirty 93 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: one seconds left. They hold on to win twenty one 94 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: to fourteen. Is a final. Notre Dame overcomes the disappointing 95 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: loss last week to Ohio State. It is worth noting 96 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: Riley Leonard, the star Duke quarterback some deem him a 97 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: first round type prospect, had to be helped off the 98 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: field with what looked like a lower leg injury. We 99 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: will obviously monitor all that, but Notre Dame, thirteenth ranked 100 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: team in the country, does win at Duke after the 101 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: loss to lost to lost to Ohio State last week. 102 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: By the way, Notre Dame number eleven, not number thirteen. 103 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: I apologize back to USC. So I agree with you, Jason, 104 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: and I do think Listen, you know Listen. I think 105 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 2: some people would say, oh, it's too early to start 106 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 2: talking about play off this and play off that. And 107 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 2: I mean, you look at a game right now, like Alabama. 108 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 2: Everyone gave up on Alabama a few weeks ago, and 109 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 2: they're dominating another game in the SEC and are going 110 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: to go probably go to two and zero in the 111 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: SEC and before and one overall, after we had all 112 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: given up on him a few weeks ago. The thing 113 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 2: that is different with USC is that, yes, it's only 114 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 2: year two under Lincoln Riley, but you have you have 115 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: not only the best quarterback in college football, you have 116 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: one of the best quarterback prospects that we have seen 117 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 2: in recent memory. And listen, Lincoln rally produces Heisman Trophy 118 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: winners like it's nobody's business. But there's a very reasonable 119 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 2: chance this is the best quarterback that he ever has 120 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 2: the privilege of working with in college. And it feels 121 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: like you're going to waste another season with him. Now. 122 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 2: It's one thing you know two years ago, Oklahoma whatever, 123 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 2: he's a true freshman, he gets thrown into the fire 124 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: when Spencer Rautless struggles. It's even one thing last year, 125 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 2: a full time starter, but it's a new school, it's 126 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: a new program, the defense, whatever, it's gonna take some time, whatever, 127 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: But this is year two. This is the transfer portal era. 128 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: And if anybody listened to the game, and I know 129 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 2: everybody was watching gust and Joel on Fox this afternoon, 130 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 2: is that they raved at the beginning of the game 131 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 2: about the talent that was brought in through the transfer 132 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: portal Bear Alexander defensive tackle from Georgia, Mason Cobb, linebacker 133 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: from Oklahoma State. And it looks like the exact same defense. 134 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 2: And so this is USC, it's only year two, but 135 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: they are held to a high standard because they are USC. 136 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: Because it's the transfer portal era. You can flip a 137 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 2: roster quick and they certainly have and you have a 138 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: once in a generation quarterback on your roster. And so 139 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 2: I think that this is the biggest story coming out 140 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: of the day to me is you can celebrate a 141 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: win on the road, whatever, but when you were in 142 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 2: complete control of that game and when it got much 143 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 2: more competitive than it should have late and with the 144 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: schedule that USC has coming up, and we've talked about 145 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: it's starting in two weeks from now at Notre Dame. 146 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 2: It's only going to get harder from there, and it 147 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 2: just feels like we are on a collision course with 148 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 2: USC wasting another year with Caleb Williams, and this is. 149 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 3: The wrong conference in the wrong year to have a 150 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 3: defense like this. 151 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: That's the other part of it. 152 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 3: You're talking about the schedule getting tougher in conference. The 153 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: PAC twelve is loaded. 154 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: They just are. 155 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 3: I mean, we talked about it actually off air this afternoon. 156 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 3: Washington even though they're not really dominating tonight, they're incredible 157 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 3: Oregon Bo Nicks and what he's doing up there, they're outstanding. 158 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 3: We saw that last week. USC obviously what they can 159 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 3: do offensively, they're really good. Colorado is better than advertised, 160 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 3: but it's still a work in progress. Oregon State didn't 161 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 3: get talked about anywhere near enough. They knocked off Utah 162 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 3: on Friday, and of course Utah is still a really 163 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 3: good football team, as well as is Washington State. Like 164 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 3: the whole conference is loaded, so week after week when 165 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 3: you're playing in conference, for the most part, there's a 166 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 3: few that'll be a little bit, but they like yes exactly, 167 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 3: so if they go undefeated, it's going to be Because 168 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 3: Caleb Williams has played the single greatest season in the 169 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 3: history of college football. It feels like that to me. Now. 170 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 3: Borrow is currently leader in the clubhouse. I think with 171 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 3: the LSU season that they had, but this SC team 172 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 3: is going to have to score sixty every week to win, 173 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 3: not to win by thirty, to win football games. 174 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: And that's just insane. 175 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. And by the way, that LSU defense gave up 176 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: twenty two points per game that year. I'm looking it 177 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: up right now. I don't, you know, I just think that, 178 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 2: like I don't want to say we can't, but it 179 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 2: just it feels like a fool's errand to even discuss 180 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 2: running the table because I just I just don't think 181 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 2: it's gonna happen. 182 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. That's why I'm saying. 183 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 3: If it happens, it's because Caleb Williams has done something 184 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 3: no one can even conceive of, even for him. 185 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely yes. So for people who don't know the schedule 186 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 2: going forward, Arizona next week at home, Arizona currently playing 187 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 2: Washington fourteen to seven in Tucson as we speak, at 188 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 2: Notre Dame, then Utah at home, then Cal then the 189 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 2: final three Washington at home at Oregon, Ucla Oregon took 190 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: care of business against Cal just today. By the way, 191 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 2: UCLA is playing actually very very very well. They have 192 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 2: a top ten defense in college football right now. So 193 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 2: it's like you think of UCLA as the Chip Kelly offense, 194 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: fast paced. Whatever. The point I'm trying to make is 195 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 2: the point that you. 196 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: Just made, Jason. 197 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: This is the wrong year in the wrong conference, because 198 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: everybody is good, and it does feel like USC is 199 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: gonna get tripped up they win this game, but I 200 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: don't know how you could feel good again for people 201 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: who missed the game earlier. 202 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: Today. 203 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: USC wins forty eight to forty one, but gives up 204 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 2: five hundred and sixty four yards of total offense, including 205 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: one hundred and ninety three yards rushing to a Colorado 206 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: team that was in the bottom ten nationally and rushing 207 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 2: coming in. In keeping the update on a couple quick scores 208 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: here late in the evening, we do have a final 209 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 2: in Knoxville, Tennessee. Top twenty five Tennessee volunteers take care 210 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 2: of South Carolina forty one to twenty. We just mentioned 211 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 2: a moment ago that Notre Dame did close out, did 212 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 2: close out the Duke Blue Devils twenty one to fourteen 213 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 2: is the final there Notre Dame scoring in the final 214 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 2: minute of the game to take the lead. Will be 215 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 2: monitoring the situation with Riley Leonard, the duke starting quarterback. 216 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 2: There was a scene on the field after the game. 217 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: Sam Hartman, the Notre Dame quarterback, was actually standing outside 218 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 2: the injury tent trying to trying to, you know, talk 219 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 2: to Riley and Nelson try to see if he could 220 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 2: catch him. But Notre Dame does hold on to win. 221 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: And the late game in Starkville, Mississippi maybe starting to 222 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: get a little bit interesting. Alabama up thirty one to 223 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 2: seventeen on Mississippi State. Extra point pending. Mississippi State has 224 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 2: just scored, so it's thirty one sixteen, but Mississippi State 225 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 2: is moving the ball.

Think there's a lot of positives for Colorado though. 235 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 2: And you know who agrees with me, Dion Sanders. Will 236 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: hear from him next on his reaction to a close loss. 237 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Radio. 238 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 239 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 4: the nation.

All right, So we 248 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 2: opened the show just a moment ago talking about the 249 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: game earlier today, as Colorado and USC played the big 250 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 2: noon kickoff on Fox TV. USC wins forty eight to 251 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 2: forty one. I think there's a little bit of a 252 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 2: concern with that USC defense, a defense that you just 253 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 2: need to be good enough to not be mediocre so 254 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 2: that Caleb Williams can do his part and basically put 255 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 2: you in contention to make the College Football Playoff. That 256 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: is not looking very good with the schedule ahead for USC. 257 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: But then there's the other side of this, Jason, and 258 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 2: there's the Colorado perspective. Colorado with the PAC twelve the 259 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 2: way that it is, the point that you brought up earlier, 260 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 2: I don't want to say that Colorado is in any way, 261 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: shape or form kind of out of the weeds as 262 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 2: far as their schedules concerned. But this was a team 263 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: that coming into the year, you know, the over underwent 264 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 2: total was three and a half wins. They were twenty 265 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: one point underdog to open the season. They beat TCU, 266 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: they beat Nebraska, they start out three to zero. But 267 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 2: even in loss today, Jason, I think there were a 268 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 2: lot of positives. As again, they put up over five 269 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 2: hundred closer to six hundred yards of total offense, including 270 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 2: close to two hundred yards rushing. Before we talk about it, 271 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 2: I do want to hear a little bit of what 272 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 2: coach prime Dion Sanders had to say about his team's 273 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 2: performance after the game. 274 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: If you can't see what's coming with SeeU football, You've 275 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: lost your man. You just a flat out hater. If 276 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: you can't see. 277 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 3: What's going on and what's going to transpire over the 278 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 3: next several months, something's wrong with you. 279 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: So that was Deon Sanders after the game and Jason 280 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: I So I actually happen to agree with him. You 281 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: know again, this was a team with an over underwent 282 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 2: total three and a half. Over the next two weeks 283 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 2: they play what are on paper, the two worst teams 284 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 2: in this league, Arizona State and Stanford. They're combined two 285 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 2: to eight overall OZH to four in the to five 286 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 2: excuse me in the Pac twelve. Stanford actually got destroyed 287 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 2: by USC just a few weeks ago, and I think 288 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: not only was it a close loss, but there were 289 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 2: a lot of positives including a Marion Miller, a four 290 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 2: star freshman, one of the highest rated players that Deon 291 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: Sanders signed in his initial class, was put in the 292 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 2: game seven catches, one hundred and ninety six yards in 293 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: one touchdown. And oh, by the way, in theory, you 294 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 2: should get a little bit healthier over these next couple 295 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 2: of weeks. Shiloh Sanders, the starting safety, was out. Travis Hunter, 296 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 2: we know was out, So I gotta give Deon Sanders credit. 297 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 2: His team fought, his team battled. They're probably gonna get 298 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 2: healthy over the next couple of weeks. They hit a 299 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: little bit of a soft spot in the schedule. And 300 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 2: I agree with everything that he said after this game. 301 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: He's one hundred percent right. You can add me to 302 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: the same course. I think that. 303 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 3: Because it's Dion and because I think there has been 304 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 3: there's been some hyperbole on both sides. 305 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: I've heard national people talk about I kind of want to. 306 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 3: See him get beat, and then there's been the opposite, 307 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 3: and there's been the coverage, and there's been the TV ratings. 308 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: But what we got to remember is this is a 309 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 3: work in progress. This is an incomplete football team right now. 310 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 3: And we know that they're supposed to get beat by 311 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 3: USC Yep, they're supposed to get beat by Oregon. They're 312 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 3: supposed to get beat by TSE. You guess what they didn't. 313 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 3: They've won three games, They're already ahead of schedule. He's 314 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: exactly right, and he said this last week after Oregon, 315 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 3: We're never gonna be this bad again. It's like, yeah, 316 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 3: you better beat them right now. Because they are coming. 317 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 3: I don't know what the Sea Wing turns out to be. 318 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 3: I think it depends on how long Dion wants to 319 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 3: be there, but he's going to be bringing in more talent. 320 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 3: It's clear they're well coached. I think they've been coached 321 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 3: to a degree. I think the entire staff has done 322 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 3: a really nice job of getting them ready to play 323 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 3: for the most part. And I don't think they've made excuses. 324 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 3: They didn't make excuses at Oregon last week. They didn't 325 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 3: make excuses here. What Dion is saying is one thousand 326 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 3: percent true. And he is also I think, speaking to 327 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 3: the next crop of potential Colorado recruits and saying, yeah, 328 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 3: come be a part of this because you see where 329 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: it's going. And it's the same thing like watching this game. 330 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 3: You're supposed to get beat by USC by a lot 331 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 3: more than this, especially considering the injuries that you made. 332 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: But Colorado just continues to show Oregon's really good. 333 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 3: They just are, and that that was an environment that 334 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 3: was going to be impossible for them and it turned 335 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 3: out to be. But for Dion to not make excuses 336 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 3: for the loss, but say, if you can't see what's 337 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 3: happening here, you're out of your mind or you're a hater. 338 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 3: I think that's exactly right. Anybody that is not saying, man, 339 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 3: this is something to watch, and boy, it's gonna look 340 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 3: special in the future. Uh, you know, we don't know 341 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 3: for we don't know absolutely for certain, but it certainly 342 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 3: feels that way. 343 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 1: I agree with them. 344 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 3: I think you do have to be a blind hater 345 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: or somebody that's just coming out to have a take 346 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 3: at this point in time to say anything other than 347 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 3: this has been successful. It's an incomplete unit right now, 348 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 3: and it's gonna be potentially frightening, but it's gonna be 349 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 3: fun to watch once it's fully formed. 350 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 2: You know what I like What he did today is 351 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 2: I don't know if you caught this during the week, 352 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 2: but there was a little bit of a back He 353 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 2: made some comments about a five star freshman named Cormoni McLain. 354 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 2: He was the top rated recruit in the last class 355 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 2: that you know, the first class that he signed, and 356 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 2: he's a cornerback and with Travis Hunter hurt, he was 357 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,239 Speaker 2: asked why Cormoni McLain wasn't playing, and he basically said, like, 358 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: he's not preparing right, he's not showing up ready to 359 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 2: play whatever. And there was a little bit of backlash 360 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 2: to Dion, to coach Prime for the comments. Some people 361 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: thought he shouldn't be airing this stuff out publicly. I 362 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 2: had no problem with it. Whatever. Why I bring it up. 363 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: The kid Cormoni McLain did play today. He actually played 364 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 2: very well, broke up a touchdown in the end zone, 365 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 2: had an interception that was ultimately called back because of 366 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: a penalty on the play. You add him in with 367 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 2: the Amarion Miller kid who had, as I said, seven 368 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 2: catches whatever it was. I just put down the stats. 369 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 2: Seven catches, one hundred and ninety six yards, one touchdown. 370 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 2: I'm not saying you should play guys that haven't earned 371 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 2: that opportunity, but I also do think in a rebuilding 372 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: type year like this, if a guy had as pseudo 373 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: earned the opportunity, put him in and see what they 374 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 2: can do. And I think that's what Dion did today 375 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 2: was he said, you know what you guys have been. 376 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: You know you guys, we were stars in high school. 377 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: You're you're you're might not totally be ready, but your 378 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 2: upside is through the roof. For I don't want to 379 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: say that he gave up on winning the game, but 380 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 2: they were down by a lot, and he just said, 381 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 2: I want to see what you guys have and and 382 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 2: I love that approach, and I love that philosophy because 383 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 2: all it's gonna do is build depth, build experience, and 384 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 2: then when a Travis Hunter does come back, when some 385 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 2: of the injured guys do come back, it just creates 386 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 2: more depth overall. So I really like that move by 387 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 2: Dion to get some of those younger guys some experience. 388 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 2: And I just really liked the fight in that team 389 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 2: in the second half. Obviously, I understand there's no moral 390 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 2: victories in college sports and and this is you know, 391 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 2: professionalized whatever it is essentially professional sports, but man, oh 392 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 2: man like like to battle back the way that they 393 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 2: did and and to to to you know, to to 394 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 2: put themselves back in that game. I just think you 395 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 2: have a lot of momentum. And and then I think, again, 396 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: it goes back to what you and I have talked about, 397 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 2: even during the high times of the three and oh start, 398 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 2: which was the goal isn't to win a national championship. 399 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: The goal isn't to make college football playoff. The goal 400 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 2: is frankly, get to six and six exceed everybody's expectations. 401 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 2: Go to a bowl game, get that extra month of practice, 402 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: and then recruit your butt off. And so they didn't 403 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 2: win today, but I think you can see the pathway 404 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: with two manageable games over the next couple weeks and 405 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 2: then obviously over the back half of the season. If 406 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 2: you can win those two games, you got to go 407 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: whatever it would be, you know, one in five down 408 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 2: the stretch to get to six and six, get to 409 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: that bowl game. That's what stood out to me today. 410 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 2: A lot of those young guys got reps. But more importantly, 411 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 2: they are back on again. And I know there's no 412 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 2: such thing as moral victories, I get all that, but 413 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 2: they're back on that trajectory. Get to six and six, 414 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 2: go to a bowl game, build some momentum, and then 415 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 2: recruit your butt off because as you said, Jason Tallent 416 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 2: is definitely coming once recruiting remps up. 417 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 3: Yeap Man, I think that's a really good point about CORMONDI, 418 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 3: McLain and some of the younger guys, because it feels like, well, 419 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 3: Dion's kind of having to balance playing checkers in chess. 420 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: Checkers is a game in front of you. Chess is 421 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 3: the long game and when you look at Colorado, you 422 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: are looking more at the long game. Now they've already 423 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 3: done some things and one a few rounds of checkers 424 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 3: and knocked a few people off along the way, But 425 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 3: he's looking down the line. 426 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: The point about depth is well taken. 427 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 3: You get these guys some game reps right now, They're 428 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: not going to be nearly as wide eyed like deer 429 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 3: in headlights when they're out there for real, or when 430 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 3: you know the first string's back and they're not out 431 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,959 Speaker 3: there as often. He's having to balance the game in 432 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 3: front of him with getting guys ready for the future 433 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 3: seeing what's there. I think he is taking I think 434 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 3: he's taking a really interesting approach. But I think that 435 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 3: he's in an interesting situation because of the job that 436 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 3: he took, and as a result, this is the kind 437 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 3: of thing you have to do. I remember, because I'm 438 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 3: in Nashville, you know, Vanderbilt, there was alway there's always 439 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 3: talk from some of the fans here in Nashville that 440 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 3: will always say, can we just get somebody that runs 441 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 3: a triple option? Can we just do something completely crazy? 442 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 3: You know, it worked for Georgia Tech for a time. 443 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 3: It's always annoying to play Navy, Like, if we can't 444 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 3: compete and just recruit on the same line, then can 445 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 3: we do something unique that makes it a little bit different. Well, 446 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 3: Colorado's situation is unique, and Dion is treating it kind 447 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 3: of as both a present but also as a future. 448 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 3: And I think that because it's Colorado, that makes all 449 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 3: the sense in the world. 450 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. And lastly, and then we'll get to 451 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 2: the seger Is. I do think, you know, everybody has 452 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 2: to keep that perspective of Listen, you don't want to 453 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 2: put on games. Nobody's saying that they're trying to lose, 454 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 2: that they're or there, or that they're okay with losing. 455 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 2: But like this whole idea coming out of last week, 456 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 2: and it wasn't something that you and I kind of 457 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 2: dabbled in, uh with our commentary, but it's like oh, 458 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 2: you know, wow, wow, Wow, they were overrated. It's like, no, 459 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 2: they were actually they're actually totally properly rated. And if 460 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 2: anything they have over now have they been maybe over 461 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 2: talked about, Well, that's up to you. I mean we're 462 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 2: talking about them because people are interested in hearing about them. 463 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 2: But are they overrated? No, they were projected with three 464 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 2: and a half games, they're they're three and two now 465 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: and just played what is on paper a top ten team, 466 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 2: you know, to to a near upset. And so again, 467 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,360 Speaker 2: this is such a bigger rebuild than I think most 468 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 2: because they started three and No, this is still such 469 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 2: a bigger rebuild than people realize. Like, you know, Dion 470 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 2: didn't didn't bring in sixty five or seventy new players 471 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 2: or whatever it was because he wanted to because it 472 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 2: was fun. It was because they were literally, by far, 473 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 2: the worst Power five team in college football last year. 474 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 2: And so again for people you know that, I don't 475 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 2: know if you want to say see him fail or 476 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 2: whatever however you want to term it. Oh, they're overrated, 477 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 2: they're this, They're that. No, they're they're they're completely properly 478 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 2: rated at three and two, and they have overachieved so 479 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: far this season. They do lose today, but I think 480 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 2: there's a lot of positive to take out of this. 481 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Era Tours Jason Martin, broadcasting live from 482 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 2: the Tireck dot Com studios, Come up, Jason, I want 483 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 2: to hit on some of the other big games across 484 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 2: the sport on Saturday before we get to it, though, 485 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 2: let's toss it over the news desk first time this evening. 486 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 2: Steve de Sager, what's trending to Sager? 487 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 5: Hello, gentlemen.

Every playoff berth 544 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 5: is now taken, including five teams clinching tonight. Still some 545 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 5: things to be decided tomorrow, for example, who's gonna win 546 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 5: the AL West? But we know the Miami Marlins are 547 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 5: in the playoffs. They clinched a wildcard berth with a 548 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 5: win at Pittsburgh seven to three. That result means the 549 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 5: Cubs are eliminated and the Diamondbacks are into the postseason. 550 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 5: They clinched a playoff spot when the Reds loss fifteen 551 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 5: to six at Saint Louis. Houston got a victory at 552 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 5: Arizona one nothing Houston clinch is a wildcard spot. Texas 553 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 5: is in. Rangers won six to one at Seattle, so 554 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 5: the Mariners are out. They were one game back for 555 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 5: the final wildcard spot, but then an l in Seattle 556 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 5: and Toronto's now in. They lost in ten innings at 557 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 5: home today seven to five to Tampa Bay, but the 558 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 5: Blue Jays are in because of the Seattle loss. All 559 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 5: the MLB games tomorrow will start at three pm Eastern time. 560 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 2: Back to you, thank you very much, Steve the Sager, 561 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Saturday and Towards. Jason Martin 562 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 2: broadcasting live from the tyreck dot Com studios. Jason, do 563 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 2: you want to hit on the very interesting game down 564 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 2: at Auburn? The number one Georgia Bulldogs do hold on 565 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: to beat the Alburn Tigers twenty seven to twenty Brock Bauers, 566 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,719 Speaker 2: I mean, my goodness. The tight end eight catches one 567 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty seven yards. He scores the go ahead 568 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 2: touchdown with looking under three minutes to go. We can 569 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: talk about Bowers. He's amazing. This is the second SEC 570 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 2: game that Georgia. Georgia trailed at the half again in 571 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: South Carolina. They were tied at the half against an 572 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: alburd team that got blown out by Texas A and 573 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 2: M last week. Are you at all concerned about Georgia yet, 574 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 2: because obviously there's a long season left and the schedule 575 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 2: isn't brutal. They don't play Alabama, they don't play LSU, 576 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 2: they don't play Texas A and m but they have 577 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 2: looked pretty uninspired in two SEC games so far. 578 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 3: Jason, I don't know if I'm concerned, but they're playing 579 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 3: with fire, and Kirby smart knows it because after the 580 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 3: game he said, we've got to be better, and I 581 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 3: think he's, all right, you can't. 582 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: Maybe you can. I mean, I guess it's happened. But 583 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: they do team It does seem like they sleep. 584 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 3: Walk, and then they play a lot better in the 585 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 3: second half of these games. Auburn's pretty decent, but they 586 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 3: weren't moving the football all that well. They were scoring 587 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 3: a lot of their points on defense. George's offense at 588 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 3: times looks real crisp and real smooth, and then at 589 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 3: other times it's just it looks like a struggle. Beck 590 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 3: at times, man, he really throws it well. And Bowers, 591 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 3: just Bowers is your cheat code for second, long, third 592 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 3: and long whatever. I don't know how he gets open, 593 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 3: but he gets open every single time. It's incredible. It's 594 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 3: like you know he's going to get the ball. You 595 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 3: knew on that third and sixteen or whatever it was 596 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,959 Speaker 3: late in the game. Oh here comes Bowers. Yep, And 597 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 3: it's exactly what happens. And he's open going across the 598 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 3: middle on a fairly regular basis. They've still got a 599 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 3: lot of talent. But you do have to wonder is 600 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 3: there going to be the moment where they're not able to. 601 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: Continue to do this. I know the game that. 602 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 3: Is coming up, and I kind of wanted to talk 603 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 3: about it because I know what's going to happen in 604 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 3: this game. So they're playing Kentucky and Kentucky is undefeated. 605 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 3: Kentucky really kind of dominated Florida today. Kentucky is the 606 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 3: new Old Miss and by that I mean the Old 607 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 3: Miss teams that used to show up undefeated to play 608 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 3: all Obama, get boat raced, and then lose three to 609 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 3: four games down the stretch. It would be like a 610 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 3: game that they would never recover from. I tend to 611 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 3: think that's what will happen next week. I don't think 612 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 3: George is gonna go lose to Kentucky. I'm not gonna 613 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 3: buy into that hype. You look at the rest of 614 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 3: the schedule. I don't think Florida has enough. Missouri is 615 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 3: playing great football. I don't think they've got enough. Ole 616 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: Miss would be an interesting game, but probably not. And 617 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 3: you come down to Tennessee on November the eighteenth. It's 618 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 3: at Knoxville. That's gonna be an incredible atmosphere. If both 619 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 3: teams are relatively healthy, you know, that could be an 620 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 3: interesting game. 621 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: Tennessee's defense is. 622 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 3: Better this year than they were last year, but their 623 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 3: offense is nowhere near as good at least passing the football, 624 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 3: as they were a season ago. So I still look 625 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 3: at it and I think they could get beat, but 626 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 3: I can't predict it. I don't see the week right 627 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 3: now where I'm just like, that's the one. 628 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: They're gonna lose. 629 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 3: I think people are gonna try to talk themselves into 630 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 3: Kentucky this week. They're gonna feel real foolish this time. 631 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 2: Next week, Kentucky taking care of Florida thirty three to fourteen. 632 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 2: That game wasn't even as close as that final score indicated. 633 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 2: I don't think it's next week, but whether it would 634 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 2: be maybe Ole Miss with the way they move the ball. 635 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: We'll talk about them here in a minute. Maybe Tennessee. 636 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 2: I don't know where it is. I just think, like 637 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 2: you said, you can't play with fire the way that 638 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 2: they have over the last couple of weeks and feel 639 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 2: good about it. Auburn I mean, it's kind of crazy 640 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 2: with Auburn. First of all, just last week against Texas 641 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 2: A and M, they scored ten points total, and it 642 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 2: was interesting. Alburn's head coach, Hugh Freeze like he wouldn't 643 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 2: even commit to the starting quarterback Peyton Thorn throughout the week, 644 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 2: Like I think he was hoping that somebody else would 645 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: step up during the week and he would have a 646 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 2: better option. He didn't. Peyton Thorn played pretty well today. 647 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 2: But you know, even though Tennessee isn't great this year, 648 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: even though will Miss isn't great this year, whoever, you know, 649 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 2: they're probably better than Alburn is. But Georgia survives, It'll 650 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 2: be interesting to because I just have watched the sport 651 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 2: for too long, and when you play with fire as 652 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 2: much as they have over these first five weeks of 653 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 2: the season, do you think it eventually catches up with you? Obviously, 654 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 2: in a fourteen playoff era doesn't necessarily keep you from 655 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 2: reaching your goals. They could still win the SEC East, 656 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 2: they could still make the College Football Playoff, and they 657 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 2: could still win a third straight national championship, But right 658 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 2: now they have not looked good. As Georgia survives twenty 659 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 2: seven to twenty.

Jason, 699 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 2: this wasn't the most important game of the day, but 700 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 2: darn if it wasn't the most entertating. Man, what a 701 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 2: wild finish in Oxford. 702 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was just fun. It was just a fun 703 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:38,879 Speaker 3: football game. And you had weird penalties on both teams 704 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 3: in the final drive. You had LSU seemingly letting Ole 705 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 3: Miss take the lead in order to have the ball 706 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 3: with enough time to do something with it with two timeouts, 707 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 3: and you had I mean, you had about as throwing 708 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 3: a finish as you could have and points being scored 709 00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 3: all over the place. 710 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: That was more like that. 711 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 3: That was kind of Colorado USC in a perfect world. 712 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 3: In terms of the offense. They had over thirteen hundred 713 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:09,240 Speaker 3: total yards of offense played or put up in that game. 714 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 3: And it was just a blast to watch. I had 715 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 3: it on the multicast, so I was able to just 716 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 3: kind of see that thing going up and down while 717 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 3: other teams were struggling to score any points in some 718 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 3: of these other games that were being played in the 719 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 3: evening session. 720 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 1: But it was a fun football game. And that's I. 721 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 3: Will say this, like the SEC West considering Alabama not 722 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 3: being nearly as dominant, and you look at everybody else, 723 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 3: like how dominant really. 724 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: Is Texas, A and M at this point. 725 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,919 Speaker 3: If you're LSU and your ole miss you're both one 726 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 3: loss teams going into this, this does position you pretty well. 727 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 3: Like the SEC West is much more open than it's 728 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 3: been in years past. So this is a game that 729 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 3: does have ramifications. And honestly, if you're an LSU proponent 730 00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 3: at this point, an LSU fan, it's probably over in 731 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 3: terms of college football playoff in terms of winning the 732 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 3: West unless every like now, you don't control your own destiny, 733 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 3: Like you can go win all your games, but you're 734 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 3: gonna need help from other people. I know it's early 735 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,879 Speaker 3: to be talking about this, but folks, next week, we're 736 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 3: halfway through the football season. We're halfway through the regular 737 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 3: season in college football. 738 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: Some teams have already played. 739 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 3: Six games, so you know, we can start to have 740 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 3: these conversations. But this was played like two teams that 741 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 3: still wont a piece of that West championship. Because if 742 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 3: you can get into the SEC title game, you could 743 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 3: have a shot to win it, and if you were 744 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 3: to win it, you would likely be in the Final 745 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 3: four at that point in time. So I think that 746 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 3: was kind of I originally said there's no stakes here, 747 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 3: but I. 748 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: Actually think they're kind of worse stakes here. 749 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, you're right about the West. Alabama 750 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 2: is up thirty four to seventeen at Mississippi State, and 751 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 2: it's crazy because they play at Texas A and M 752 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 2: next week and the winner of that game will have 753 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:03,240 Speaker 2: control of the SEC West LSU. I mean, I guess 754 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 2: you can sit there and say that that everything's ahead 755 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 2: of them. I don't know that that's the conversation in 756 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 2: Baton Rouge to know. I you know, I'm not a 757 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 2: fire everybody at a moment's notice kind of guy. But 758 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 2: you know, you gave up forty five points to Florida 759 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 2: State in Week one, all of a sudden, by the 760 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 2: way that Florida State win. At While Florida State looked awesome, 761 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 2: that LSU defense really hasn't stopped most of anybody. Last 762 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 2: week against Arkansas, you gave up thirty one points. You 763 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 2: gave up fifty five points today to Old Miss, So 764 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 2: you know, listen, you know we LSU is a two 765 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 2: loss team, like you said in theory, if they run 766 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 2: the table, if they listen, if they were to win 767 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 2: the SEC, I still think they would be in the 768 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 2: playoff because you know, they'd have wins over Alabama, Texas 769 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 2: A and M and probably Georgia at that point. But 770 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 2: I just think if you're you're LSU, it's like, I 771 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 2: don't even know what's going on there because you have 772 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 2: so much NFL talent on that roster. But at the 773 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 2: same time, it was just just a crazy, crazy game, 774 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 2: a fun game. Lane Kiffin kind of secretly needed that one. 775 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 2: I mean, there were some stats that came out this 776 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 2: week about you know, his record against top twenty five 777 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 2: teams and his record against teams that finished with nine 778 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 2: plus wins, so so old miss wins. Just an absolute 779 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: wild one, Jason, A really fun one there. Trying to 780 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 2: see what else happened today. By the way, Washington, as 781 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 2: the Sega told you a minute ago, is up twenty 782 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 2: one to ten at the half. Other interesting score, really quick. 783 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 2: We don't have to spend a ton of time on it, 784 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 2: but I think it is worth mentioning. Michigan obliterated Colorado 785 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 2: to Nebraska today. 786 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: Most of it in the second half. 787 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, And like I understand that Nebraska's not great, they were, 788 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 2: They've been pretty good defense. They were a top twenty 789 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 2: defense coming in. Michigan finishes with four hundred and thirty 790 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 2: six yards of total offense, two hundred and forty nine 791 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,879 Speaker 2: yards rushing. Dominate this game, win forty five to seven. 792 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 2: For a team that's been off the radar, they looked 793 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 2: really good today, Jason. 794 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I don't think we have time to answer 795 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 3: this question now. I'm gonna pose it and maybe we get. 796 00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,760 Speaker 1: To it a little bit later on in the show. 797 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 3: Who's number one in the country, because I think there 798 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 3: is I think there's a debate to be had. I 799 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 3: understand until Georgia gets beat and all that kind of stuff, 800 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 3: but has does Georgia have the best win of the year, 801 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 3: Michigan if you're doing it based on win totals, would not. 802 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 3: But I think that's a question we can ask right now. 803 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 3: Playing the best football in the country, it appears to 804 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 3: be Michigan, but literally they've played no one. 805 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 2: Tell you what, Jason. We will answer that question later 806 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 2: in the show because it is a fascinating question. Michigan 807 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,959 Speaker 2: does win, Georgia does win? Florida State was off this week, 808 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 2: Texas dominates as they get ready for Oklahoma next week. 809 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 2: So fun conversation, interesting conversation, and we will hit on 810 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 2: it a little bit later. Tell you what we do 811 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 2: have to hit on as well. The big news of 812 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 2: the week in the NBA.

We'll look a little bit at 821 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 2: Week four of the NFL slate obviously opened up with 822 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 2: a big Lions win on Thursday Night Football, but training 823 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: camps in NBA are basically set to open, and the 824 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 2: news that we've been waiting about four months for became 825 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:40,400 Speaker 2: official on Wednesday of this week. And know that a 826 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,919 Speaker 2: lot of guys and girls on this network have talked 827 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 2: a lot about the Damian Liller trade, but we just 828 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 2: want to chime in here really quickly with a couple 829 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 2: of thoughts of our own. But it's funny, Jason, I 830 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,320 Speaker 2: remember in the summertime, it felt like every single day 831 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 2: you're waiting for something happened, waiting for something to happen. 832 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 2: It was a little bit of a quieter time on 833 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 2: the calendar. Damian Lillard demands a trade. He only wants 834 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 2: to go to Miami. Is there another team that's gonna 835 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 2: get involved? And then it kind of went quiet for 836 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 2: a while, and then early this week, maybe even late 837 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 2: last week, he started here whispers could the Toronto Raptors 838 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 2: be the team in the mix. And then it drops 839 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 2: on Wednesday, just at least to me, a total shocker, 840 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 2: as Damian Lillard is traded to the Milwaukee Bucks. We 841 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 2: know kind of all the pieces that moved around in 842 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 2: that three team trade. DeAndre a And goes to Portland. 843 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,879 Speaker 2: Drew Holliday at least for now, goes to Portland, although 844 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: there's already speculation that he could be traded to more 845 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 2: of a contending team. Phoenix adds a couple of pieces 846 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: for their bench. Where were you? What happened? When were 847 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 2: when did you find out that Damian Lillard was a Buck? 848 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,280 Speaker 2: And on a scale of one to ten, how surprised 849 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 2: were you? 850 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: JS? 851 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 3: I was definitely surprised that it turned out to be Milwaukee. 852 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 3: I'm not exactly sure where I was, but it came 853 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 3: through an email, one of our wonderful Fox emails. 854 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 2: Definitely, the Sagra must have been a lot. 855 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 1: Actually this one wasn't him. 856 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 3: I think it might have been Monzi, might have been Manzi, 857 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 3: but it was It was a shocker. And I think 858 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:10,720 Speaker 3: what's hilarious about this is that really and truly and 859 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,720 Speaker 3: I imagine this take has been everywhere. 860 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,240 Speaker 1: I really haven't had a chance to hear. 861 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 3: Much over the past few days, but this feels like 862 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 3: the easiest take in the world. This is Milwaukee saying 863 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 3: please don't leave Yannis. The whole of this is built 864 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,359 Speaker 3: around the comments that he kind of threw out there 865 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 3: a month ago. 866 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 1: Maybe it is a little bit longer than that. 867 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,319 Speaker 3: Where he was talking about I need to see a 868 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 3: commitment before I signed an extension and all of that 869 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 3: kind of stuff. It's like, Oh, he's definitely gonna leave. 870 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 3: That became the quick take He's going somewhere else. Well, 871 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 3: this right here is the best way that the Bucks 872 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 3: can think of, that the Bucks brain trust can think 873 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 3: of to tell Yannis Anttakunpo, we are all in, just 874 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 3: like you asked us. 875 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 1: Just all you gotta do is show me you're all in. 876 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 1: I'm not interested in leaving. You got to show me 877 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 1: you're all in. Well, we're all in. 878 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 3: We're gonna give up good assets to bring in Damian 879 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 3: Lillard because you partner him with Middleton and you and 880 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 3: Giannis right there, you've got the makings of something truly special. 881 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 3: Drew Holliday is a really nice player, and you mentioned 882 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 3: him going to a contender. Well, that makes sense because 883 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 3: he's a great defender. He's somebody that's going to be 884 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 3: an excellent guard for someone. Whether or not as Portland, 885 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 3: I guess has yet to be seen. But this whole 886 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 3: deal came together because the Bucks saw an opportunity and 887 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 3: at least looked at it on paper and said, if 888 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 3: we can keep this guy in the future, it doesn't 889 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 3: matter what we have to give up right now to 890 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 3: try and bring somebody in to show him, hey, we 891 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 3: think you can win a title right now. 892 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: We're going to bring in somebody. 893 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 3: That we think you know, you can win this year, 894 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,320 Speaker 3: you can win next year. This is a huge move, 895 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 3: but it is truly Yannis. Believe us when we say 896 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 3: we're building around you. 897 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. The quotes from Giannis came in an interview with 898 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 2: The New York Times in late August. There was a 899 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 2: lot of different quotes, but he basically said that the 900 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 2: plan would not be to sign an extension before the season. 901 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 2: He said, I would not be the best version of 902 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 2: myself if I don't know that everybody's on the same page. 903 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 2: Everybody's going for a championship, everybody's going to sacrifice time 904 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 2: away from their family like I do. And if I 905 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 2: don't feel that, then I'm not signing. So yeah, I 906 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 2: mean I agree is that I think it's very clear 907 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 2: that this was you know, I don't think it was 908 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 2: to acquiesce Giannis. I think if I think it makes 909 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 2: the team better, I think there's some debate that Lillard, 910 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 2: as good as he is offensively, you know, you lose 911 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 2: a little bit defensively, he's a little bit older, he's 912 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 2: a little bit expensive, does he really make them any better? 913 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 2: But I do think it makes them better. And I 914 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 2: do think at the end of the day, it is 915 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 2: another sign to Giannis, hey we're not being good. Isn't 916 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 2: good enough? And we know that you are just now 917 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 2: entering your prime and that we have window here to 918 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 2: do something special. So with that I would push the 919 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 2: conversation for Jason, I do agree. One I think it 920 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,399 Speaker 2: makes them. I think on paper it makes them better, 921 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 2: and I think it was to show Giannis that they 922 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,919 Speaker 2: are committed to winning. Let me ask you, where where 923 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 2: does this put them for you? In the pantheon of 924 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:16,240 Speaker 2: of top teams in the NBA. The Celtics largely return 925 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 2: intact off a team that that you know, lost in 926 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 2: the Eastern Conference Finals. They obviously had a Christops porzingis 927 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,399 Speaker 2: traded Marcus Smart, but the Tatum Brown thing, we're gonna 928 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 2: try that for another year. The seventy six Ers, I 929 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,319 Speaker 2: don't think James Harden will ever play another game for them. 930 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 2: I don't necessarily think that means he's getting traded anytime soon, 931 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 2: but he's still kind of doing his goofy James Harden 932 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 2: thing blaming the front office. So it's gonna be an 933 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 2: an mb Tyrese Maxi production over there. Miami is essentially 934 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 2: gonna learn a return largely in tract, largely intact. Excuse me, 935 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 2: because Damian Lillard did not get traded. And then, of 936 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 2: course you have the teams in the West. The Lakers 937 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 2: obviously played very well down the stretch. They ended up 938 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 2: losing to the Denver Nuggets, the reigning champs. Where do 939 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 2: you put the Morelwaukee Bucks now with Damian Lillard on 940 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 2: this team. 941 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:07,720 Speaker 3: I would put him at the top, assuming obviously health. 942 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 3: But the Sixers, there's no reason to think that Embad's 943 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 3: going to get through the whole season unscathed or even 944 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 3: be healthy at the time that it matters the most. 945 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 3: The thing that's happened to Damian Lillard throughout his careers. 946 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 3: He runs out of gas because he's being asked to 947 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 3: do so much every year in Portland. Well, that's not 948 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 3: going to be that way this year. So that makes 949 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 3: me feel a lot better about Milwaukee. If I'm a 950 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 3: Bucks fan, you look at the West, the West is 951 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 3: obviously still loaded. But I would say, right now, if 952 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 3: I'm just looking at it, Denver and Milwaukee are the 953 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,440 Speaker 3: two teams that are most complete right now that I 954 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 3: would say those are the two best teams in the NBA. 955 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 3: That doesn't mean the Lakers won't be heard from. We 956 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 3: saw how they finished. Doesn't mean the grizz won't be 957 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 3: heard from. They definitely did an addition by subtraction kind 958 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 3: of move in the offseason with Brooks. But I look 959 00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 3: at the way the Bucks are made up with Giannis, 960 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 3: with Damian Lillard and with Middleton Lollard has never had 961 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 3: talent like this around him. And the way that you 962 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 3: know the value of Lillard is Jimmy Butler coming out 963 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 3: and saying the Bucks need to be investigated for tamper. 964 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 2: Let me ask you a dumb question really quick, and 965 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 2: maybe I missed this headline, How can you tamper with 966 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:23,240 Speaker 2: a player under contract? He demanded a trade, which means 967 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 2: that you're allowed to talk to him and his representation. 968 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I understand it was probably just sour grapes 969 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 2: from Jimmy Butler, but but did I miss something? There 970 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 2: is there a way that there could be tampering. I mean, 971 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 2: it's not as though he was he was heading towards 972 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 2: free agency, but he wasn't a free agent. You spoke 973 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 2: with him ahead of schedule, Like, I don't understand how 974 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 2: you can tamper with somebody under contract that has publicly 975 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 2: requested a trade. 976 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't either, Okay I didn't. 977 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 3: If you missed it, I missed it also, So it 978 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 3: did feel more like sour grapes. 979 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 1: But it just shows how much value he has. 980 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:01,560 Speaker 3: So I just kind of look at it and say, 981 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,919 Speaker 3: not that it's going to be easy, but there's no 982 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 3: reason to look at this Bucks team and not say, oh, 983 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 3: that could be a championship team. Like it just is 984 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,760 Speaker 3: and I like them better. I didn't want to see. 985 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,839 Speaker 3: If I'm a Celtics fan, I'm not sure about Jalen Brown, 986 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:20,880 Speaker 3: especially what they paid him. We'll see what Marcus Smart 987 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 3: being out of their means, But Porzingis has had injury trouble, 988 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:26,399 Speaker 3: and Marcus Smart was kind of one of the heart 989 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 3: and soul guys of that team when it came to 990 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 3: the emotion. I think he's gonna make his new squad better. 991 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:37,479 Speaker 3: Philadelphia we already talked about again, I think they're right there. 992 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 3: I think it's Denver and Milwaukee and whatever order you 993 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 3: want to put him in as the two most complete 994 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 3: and most dangerous teams in the NBA. 995 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 2: Let me ask you a dumb question, and it's not dumb, 996 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 2: but I heard the odd couple Chris and Rob talking 997 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 2: about this. Do you think Miami in any way overplayed 998 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 2: their hand? And I will preface by saying, I think 999 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 2: Miami is the big loser, because not only is this 1000 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 2: guy not with the heat, but he's with a team 1001 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 2: that was already good enough to beat you, maybe would 1002 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 2: have beaten you if Jannis didn't get hurt in that 1003 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 2: opening round of the playoffs, and now you add him 1004 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 2: to that roster. But I guess what I'm bringing up 1005 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 2: is because Chris and Robb, I thought, had a very 1006 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 2: compelling segment about if Miami overplayed their hand they thought 1007 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 2: that they were the only option, or that he wasn't 1008 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 2: a threat to go to Milwaukee. I just think if 1009 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 2: you've drawn the line in the sand, we're not trading 1010 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,399 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler, we're not trading bam At a Bio, then 1011 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 2: I don't know if there was anything else you could do. Now, 1012 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 2: maybe because of the other teams involved, Tyler Hero doesn't 1013 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 2: have to be the centerpiece. But it felt like the 1014 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,280 Speaker 2: heat kind of drew the line in the sand. Tyler 1015 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,279 Speaker 2: Hero is gonna be the biggest piece that we gave up. 1016 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 2: And I don't know what others they would have been 1017 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,719 Speaker 2: willing to be involved with, but it just feels like 1018 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 2: to me, if you weren't giving up Jimmy Butler, and 1019 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 2: you weren't given up bam At a Bio, and the 1020 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,799 Speaker 2: Blazers clearly weren't interested in Tyler Hero as any sort 1021 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 2: of center piece in this trade, I don't really know 1022 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:01,239 Speaker 2: if there was anything Miami could do, even if they 1023 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,759 Speaker 2: were ultimately the biggest loser in this whole situation. 1024 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 3: Well, so, I don't know that it's overplaying your hand 1025 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 3: if you just if there's just there's a certain limit, 1026 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:13,440 Speaker 3: there's a certain ceiling It's like you're in an auction 1027 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 3: and there's something that you want. 1028 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 1: Real bad, but you've said before you sit. 1029 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 3: Down at that auction, Okay, well, if somebody bids higher 1030 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 3: than this, I guess I'm not leaving with that thing 1031 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:30,200 Speaker 3: because I've placed this value on this, this thing, this commodity, 1032 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 3: this piece of art in this case, this unbelievable athlete. 1033 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 3: So you look at all of that, and I just 1034 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:41,320 Speaker 3: think they looked at it and there was a cost 1035 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 3: that they were not willing to pay. I don't know 1036 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 3: that that's overplaying your hand, because I don't know that 1037 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 3: they thought Lillard was going to fall into their. 1038 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 1: Lap if they kept it the way that it was. 1039 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:54,759 Speaker 3: I just think if it was going to take more 1040 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 3: than that Riley Spoilstra, the people making the decision just 1041 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 3: didn't feel like that value coming back was worth it, 1042 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 3: which means they place a. 1043 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 1: Lot of value in bam at a bio. 1044 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:12,280 Speaker 3: I understand Butler a million percent, but them to basically 1045 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 3: treat him that, to protect at a bio to that 1046 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 3: degree shows you what they think he means to their 1047 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 3: team long term, and they just aren't willing to wager 1048 00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 3: that for what has to be a pretty quick turnaround. 1049 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,720 Speaker 1: Lillard's played a lot of minutes. 1050 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 3: In the NBA, and they've been hard minutes. He's a 1051 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 3: thirty three year old player who's been in the league 1052 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 3: for a very long time. This is one of those 1053 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 3: where you're not looking five years down the road. You're 1054 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,239 Speaker 3: looking at trying to cast this thing in over the 1055 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:42,280 Speaker 3: next couple of years. 1056 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 1: And maybe you look at it if you're at you're Miami, you. 1057 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,799 Speaker 3: Say, man, we'd love to have him, but not at 1058 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 3: the expense of our long term future because it's just 1059 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:51,760 Speaker 3: too uncertain. 1060 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. I tend to agree. I think there's you know, 1061 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 2: there's only so much you can do. Yeah, I mean 1062 00:52:58,280 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 2: I think there's only so much. 1063 00:52:59,120 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 1: You can do. 1064 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 2: And I know that other teams got involved and maybe 1065 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 2: there was some way that whatever, But I just I 1066 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,320 Speaker 2: do find it a little bit hard to just I 1067 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 2: it's it's hard for like, I can't really blame them 1068 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:13,760 Speaker 2: because again, I mean, it's it's simple kind of trade 1069 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 2: economics is, if you trade too much, then what's the 1070 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 2: point of having Lillard if you can't put a competitive 1071 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 2: team around him? And uh, yeah, I do. I mean, 1072 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any doubt that Miami was probably 1073 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 2: the biggest loser out of this week, but I don't 1074 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 2: know if there was anything else they could do.

We'll discuss them next. Fox Sports Radio. 1087 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 2: Welcome back, everybody.

Now we'll get to the Packers in 1098 00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:55,239 Speaker 2: a minute. Let me say this, Jace, Troit lines are 1099 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 2: really freaking good. You know, I think my biggest takeaway 1100 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 2: and I'll talk over to you. Biggest takeaway to me 1101 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 2: was Detroit not only went into Lambeau and won, like 1102 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 2: that's you know, the headline, but I also like what 1103 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 2: stood out to me was they walked in and they 1104 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 2: played like they knew they were the better team. Now, 1105 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 2: got a little choppy late, but they were up twenty 1106 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 2: seven to three at the half, and again, you know, 1107 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 2: green Bay made a little bit of a run whatever, 1108 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 2: but that's what stood out. The Lions looked like the 1109 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:33,840 Speaker 2: Chiefs or the the Tom Brady's Patriots or whoever, not 1110 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 2: from a whatever perspective, but from a perspective of they 1111 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,440 Speaker 2: walked into that building knowing they were the better team 1112 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 2: and just took it to the Green Bay Packers on 1113 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:44,719 Speaker 2: Thursday night. 1114 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 3: I don't even know what else to add. I mean, 1115 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 3: that's exactly right. They they showed up and they showed out. 1116 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 3: They came in there with all the confidence that they 1117 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 3: were the better team, and they were the first half 1118 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 3: of that game was a statement kind of moment. It was, yeah, 1119 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:07,799 Speaker 3: not a flash in the pan last year. The way 1120 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:12,640 Speaker 3: we finished this is now twice they've done this degree back. 1121 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:14,920 Speaker 3: Remember they did that to Aaron Rodgers to make sure 1122 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 3: he didn't make the playoffs last year in the final 1123 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:18,399 Speaker 3: Sunday night game. 1124 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 1: This is a team under coach Campbell, that wants it, 1125 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:24,440 Speaker 1: that cares, and. 1126 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,319 Speaker 3: That showed up knowing that they were the only game 1127 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 3: on television that night that people were going to be watching, 1128 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 3: and they took advantage of it. 1129 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: Now, as you mentioned, it. 1130 00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 3: Did get a little bit tighter late, but this is 1131 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 3: without question the best team in the division. And the 1132 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:48,359 Speaker 3: shocking thing is the offense. We expected to be good, 1133 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 3: but the defense has been very good this year. They 1134 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 3: have like they ran into the Seahawks after the Seahawks 1135 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:57,000 Speaker 3: got embarrassed in Week one and they lost that matchup. 1136 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 3: But outside of that, they beat a pretty good Falcons 1137 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 3: team and held them to six points. 1138 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 1: They beat the Chiefs in the opener. I don't care 1139 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: who wasn't there. They beat the Chiefs. That's gonna be 1140 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:07,680 Speaker 1: on their record no matter what. 1141 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 3: And then they beat the only other team really in 1142 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 3: the division that you really look at and say, well, 1143 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 3: that's a team on both sides of the ball. The 1144 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 3: Vikings have an offense, they don't really have much of 1145 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 3: a defense. Green Bay in this game did not look 1146 00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 3: like they were equal to Lions in any way. The 1147 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 3: Lions are just further than everybody in the NFC, in 1148 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 3: the NFC North, and they are a force to be 1149 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 3: reckoned with, not just in the North but in the 1150 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,959 Speaker 3: conference as a whole. This is a good football team. 1151 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 3: We both predicted they were gonna win the division before 1152 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 3: the year started. I feel real good about that prediction 1153 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 3: right now. They're just a great football team. They're a 1154 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 3: really really solid football team all the way around, with 1155 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 3: guys that can hurt you on the ground, guys can 1156 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 3: hurt you through the air. 1157 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 1: Golf is good enough to make them dangerous. 1158 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 3: And if the defense is gonna play like this, if 1159 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:02,880 Speaker 3: they're gonna play decent again. They don't have to be 1160 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 3: a top five unit, but if they're, you know, somewhere 1161 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 3: in that eleven to fifteen range to go with this offense, 1162 00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 3: this is a team that can go a long way 1163 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 3: come January. 1164 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to talk about the long way come 1165 00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 2: January momentarily. But I think that's the thing that stands 1166 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 2: out to me about the Lions. And we may have 1167 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 2: talked about this after the Week one win against Casey 1168 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 2: on that Thursday night. I just think the job that 1169 00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:28,280 Speaker 2: that front office has done, and our resident Vike Lions expert, 1170 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,440 Speaker 2: excuse me, Chris Purfett likes to say that Brad Holmes 1171 00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 2: the GM works works pretty hand in hand with Dan Campbell. 1172 00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 2: So I don't want to give not enough credit but 1173 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 2: too much credit. But what stands out to me watching 1174 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 2: that team, It's like they just have so much team 1175 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 2: speed and so much team athleticism, and it feels like 1176 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 2: they've hit on every single pick over the last few years. 1177 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 2: You know, Aiden Hutchinson is already a star. 1178 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was wrong about that. 1179 00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 3: I want to go ahead and say that, all right, 1180 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,160 Speaker 3: So I said before I said when he was drafted, 1181 00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 3: I said before he was drafted. I thought he was overhyped, 1182 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 3: felt like they were trying to treat him like he 1183 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:05,120 Speaker 3: was JJ Watt, but watching him against the best the 1184 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 3: best teams that he played against in college ball playoff, 1185 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 3: I felt like he was exposed. That he was gonna 1186 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 3: not that he was gonna be bad, but he was 1187 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 3: gonna be average, flat out wrong. Aiden's been as advertised, 1188 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 3: He's been a tone setting guy. He's been excellent for them. 1189 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 3: So I just wanted to go ahead and put that 1190 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 3: out there that I was flat out wrong on that one. 1191 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:26,480 Speaker 2: Well, you know, I I don't know that I thought 1192 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 2: this for sure, and you know, but you look across 1193 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 2: the board leading tackler on on on Thursday night, Brian 1194 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 2: Branch he did leave the game with an injury. It 1195 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:37,080 Speaker 2: looks like he's good. Yeah, he's gonna be okay exactly. 1196 00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 2: You know, Jamiir Gibbs, I know he hasn't been great, 1197 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 2: but that was one I never understood the backlash on 1198 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 2: that draft pick. Pine Sewell looks awesome, da great call 1199 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 2: on the porta and oh, by the way, they're gonna 1200 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 2: get Jamison Williams back at some point, and it's like, 1201 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 2: that's a dude. That was probably the best wide receiver 1202 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:58,439 Speaker 2: in that draft, then gets hurt late and then miss. 1203 00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 2: You know, he's not one hundred percent last year, and 1204 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 2: now he's obviously suspended for the gambling stuff. But like 1205 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,680 Speaker 2: that's another weapon that Jared Goff is gonna have at 1206 01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:08,840 Speaker 2: his disposal. So with that said, let's talk a little 1207 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 2: bit about how far this team could potentially go in January, 1208 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 2: because you know, I look at the NFC right now 1209 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 2: and listen, I mean, San Francisco is unbelievable. I mean, 1210 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 2: we talked about them right around this time last week 1211 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 2: coming off their Thursday night went against the New York Giants. 1212 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 2: But you know, I look at Philly and it just 1213 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 2: I know, they won on Monday night and they looked 1214 01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 2: a little bit better, but it just feels like their 1215 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:33,160 Speaker 2: offense still isn't really fully clicking the way it was 1216 01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:35,360 Speaker 2: last year. Maybe to the point that you brought up 1217 01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:38,040 Speaker 2: all summer the loss of shit of Shane Steichen, their 1218 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 2: former offensive coordinator, is having an impact on them. Obviously, 1219 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 2: the Cowboys were a little bit banged up last week, 1220 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 2: but at the same time, just feels like I can't 1221 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 2: get excited about the Cowboys because I know who they are. 1222 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 2: I know who Dak Prescott is in big games and 1223 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 2: big moments. I look at this Lions team and it's 1224 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 2: like they got weapons all over the field. The defense 1225 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 2: is good, they have a pass rush, they protect Jared 1226 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,320 Speaker 2: Goff if they give them time. I'm not saying I 1227 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:03,840 Speaker 2: predicted them to go to the super Bowl or anything, 1228 01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 2: but it's like, I think they're a really good football 1229 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:08,920 Speaker 2: team that has a chance to do something really special 1230 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:09,919 Speaker 2: over these next couple of months. 1231 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:10,960 Speaker 1: Chase, I agree. 1232 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:12,560 Speaker 3: The only thing, and I know this is gonna sound 1233 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:16,480 Speaker 3: weird based on what they just did on Thursday, but 1234 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 3: I think. 1235 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 1: It's gonna come down to how many games they get. 1236 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:22,040 Speaker 3: To play at home when it comes to the playoffs. 1237 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 3: I don't like their chances of going to San Francisco 1238 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 3: and winning on the road. I don't like their chances 1239 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 3: of going to Philadelphia and winning on the road. I 1240 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 3: don't like a whole lot of teams chances of coming 1241 01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:34,880 Speaker 3: in and beating them on their own field. 1242 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,160 Speaker 1: So I think that's probably the big thing. 1243 01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 3: And again, I know they went to Lambo and did this, 1244 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,920 Speaker 3: but I just don't think that the Packers are that 1245 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 3: great a football team. And I think if you go 1246 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 3: play San Francisco on the road, that's gonna be one 1247 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,880 Speaker 3: that's you win that you're gonna deserve all the props 1248 01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 3: in the world for that kind of a win. So 1249 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:54,320 Speaker 3: I think that's the key here for the Lions is 1250 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 3: to stack w's to put yourself in a position to 1251 01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:00,440 Speaker 3: host a couple of playoff games. Because we all know 1252 01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:05,600 Speaker 3: golf generally plays better at home, especially inside, and playing 1253 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:07,120 Speaker 3: the way that the Lions do and the way that 1254 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 3: they run their offense, that's going to be the critical point. 1255 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:11,480 Speaker 3: If they have to go on the road in their 1256 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 3: first playoff game, that could be a scenario where they're 1257 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 3: not able to win. But if they get a home 1258 01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:20,320 Speaker 3: game or a couple of home games and the health 1259 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,400 Speaker 3: is still there for them, I like their chances. 1260 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 2: I don't disagree, And I do think obviously that offense 1261 01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:28,320 Speaker 2: is going to click a little bit better, you know, 1262 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 2: at home, and obviously you factor in that by January. 1263 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 2: No matter where you're playing, if you're outside, the weather 1264 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,919 Speaker 2: will probably be a factor as well. But yeah, they're 1265 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 2: a fun story and they are a really good football team. 1266 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 2: Fox Sports radio eron Tors Jason Martin, broadcasting live from 1267 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 2: the tyreck dot Com Studios. Coming up, we're going to 1268 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,920 Speaker 2: look at the other side of Thursday night with the Packers. 1269 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:51,720 Speaker 2: How worried should Packers fans be about Jordan Love and 1270 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:54,920 Speaker 2: this team right now? We'll discuss that next. Before we 1271 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 2: do that, let's toss it over to the news desk Sega, 1272 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:57,360 Speaker 2: what's trending? 1273 01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 5: You guys mentioned that the Lions had an impressive game 1274 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,760 Speaker 5: Thursday with everybody watching. I did see the ratings for 1275 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 5: Thursday night. The highest rated network TV show was the 1276 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 5: series premiere of The Golden Bachelor that was four point 1277 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:15,600 Speaker 5: four million viewers. NFL got thirteen point four million viewers, 1278 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 5: and most of that, remember was on Prime video streaming of. 1279 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 6: Course, just astounding numbers. That is well. 1280 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 5: In boxing, and it's going on right now in Las Vegas, 1281 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 5: Canelo Alvarez is apparently leading Jermel Charlow. In fact, through 1282 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 5: eight rounds. One veteran writer had it eight rounds to none. 1283 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 5: They're in the ninth. This is Alvarez, the undisputed super 1284 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:42,200 Speaker 5: middleweight champ, against the undisputed junior middleweight champ, who's moved up. Meanwhile, 1285 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:44,680 Speaker 5: we had quite a notre dame finish here, a drive 1286 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 5: in the last minute for the Irish behind quarterback Sam Hartman. 1287 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 5: Let's see how it sounded, Sam Hartman and the Irish. 1288 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 6: It's not coming through. 1289 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 1: So it's it there we go. 1290 01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:59,280 Speaker 2: Ones out to us right, all the fifty steps up. 1291 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 4: He could run futh across the forty thirty five thirty 1292 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:03,480 Speaker 4: and he got it. 1293 01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:06,640 Speaker 2: He got there, He got to the twenty nine forty one. 1294 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 2: So I love form. 1295 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,320 Speaker 6: And then this lord, he'll do it pill star fut 1296 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 6: toutdown art all of that in the last minute. 1297 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 5: The first you heard was a fourth and sixteen conversion 1298 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,680 Speaker 5: with the quarterback running and then the touchdown run with 1299 01:04:22,720 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 5: about thirty seconds to go. Notre Dame twenty one fourteen 1300 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:29,720 Speaker 5: winners at Duke.

Bama scored back to back touchdowns at the 1309 01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:56,200 Speaker 5: end of the first half that really took it to 1310 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:58,960 Speaker 5: a blowout. March and number one Georgia won at Auburn 1311 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:01,960 Speaker 5: twenty seven to twenty a touchdown pass with three minutes 1312 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,600 Speaker 5: to go.

On Monday, Miami 1324 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,920 Speaker 5: clinched a wild card birth tonight, winning at Pittsburgh that 1325 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:51,560 Speaker 5: eliminated the Cubs. In fact, every playoff berth is now taken, 1326 01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:55,439 Speaker 5: including five teams clinching tonight Texas and Houston each one 1327 01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:59,000 Speaker 5: to clinch spots. Diamondbacks lost one nothing to the Astros 1328 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:01,960 Speaker 5: at home, but Arizona is in.

Toronto lost at 1330 01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 5: home in ten innings today, but the Blue Jays are in. 1331 01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:10,400 Speaker 5: They clinched with a Seattle lost at home six to 1332 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:13,680 Speaker 5: one to Texas. The AL West title is still to 1333 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:17,919 Speaker 5: be decided tomorrow. By the way, and kudos to these turnarounds. 1334 01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:21,160 Speaker 5: Here we have the Orioles amazingly the best team in 1335 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 5: the American League the way things have gone. They clinched 1336 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:27,080 Speaker 5: the AL East on Thursday. One of the rare teams 1337 01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:30,439 Speaker 5: to in a three season span go from one hundred 1338 01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:34,000 Speaker 5: and ten losses to a playoff Berth well, and now 1339 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:37,160 Speaker 5: the Diamondbacks have done that as well. Houston a decade 1340 01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:38,280 Speaker 5: ago did that back to you. 1341 01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 2: Fun fact my stepdad is a big Orioles fan. He 1342 01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 2: has one of those like twelve game mini packs. He 1343 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 2: can't go because he has a full time job. My 1344 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:49,640 Speaker 2: mom is retired. She's going to like Game one in 1345 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 2: Game two in Baltimore next week by herself. So shout 1346 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 2: out to my mom. 1347 01:06:53,680 --> 01:07:00,400 Speaker 3: Baltimore is the Lions basically of baseball. But I saw Steeves. Yeah, well, 1348 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:02,439 Speaker 3: I saw the Braves play them early in the year. 1349 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,320 Speaker 3: I knew they were gonna be good. They've done a 1350 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 3: really nice job, and they are young. They have a 1351 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,680 Speaker 3: really really young core of guys. They're gonna be dangerous 1352 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 3: for a while. 1353 01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 5: Like the Braves, a one seed in their league and 1354 01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 5: therefore essentially having the next week off, that division series 1355 01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 5: doesn't start the best of five until next Saturday night, 1356 01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 5: when they'll get going. The bad news is for the Orioles, 1357 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 5: and this was official today. Their closer, Felix Bautista will 1358 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,640 Speaker 5: have Tommy John surgery, so not only no playoff hopes 1359 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:29,600 Speaker 5: for this year, probably out for a full year. Have 1360 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 5: either you been to Camden Yards. No, it's a great place. 1361 01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 5: They just got a new thirty year contract to stay. 1362 01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:38,040 Speaker 2: Saw that. Yeah, it's a great place to watch a game. 1363 01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:42,000 Speaker 2: It's beautiful stadium, beautiful venue. I know it's been thirty 1364 01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 2: plus years since it was built, but it's still like 1365 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:45,840 Speaker 2: great place to watch a game. 1366 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:48,080 Speaker 1: By the way, sixty five first downs I think it 1367 01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:49,160 Speaker 1: was game. 1368 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:54,840 Speaker 3: Yes, well, Iowa have sixty five first downs this season cumulatively. 1369 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 2: I wanted to tell you to Sega. You mentioned the 1370 01:07:56,960 --> 01:08:02,640 Speaker 2: Iowa win earlier. So right after the LSUO miss game, 1371 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 2: I saw trending on Twitter slash x it said fire Brian, 1372 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:10,720 Speaker 2: and I'm like, I'm like LSU fans, You're not doing this, 1373 01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 2: are you? So I checked to see what people were 1374 01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:16,360 Speaker 2: talking about. It was fire Brian Ferentz for what was 1375 01:08:16,400 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 2: going on with that Iowa offense? So, yeah, so they 1376 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,519 Speaker 2: scored more than twenty tonight. Didn't they have a special 1377 01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:23,160 Speaker 2: team touchdown? 1378 01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:23,400 Speaker 8: Though? 1379 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:24,120 Speaker 1: Oh? 1380 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:27,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, you mean the specific offense getting the points is 1381 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:27,720 Speaker 5: what you're talking about. 1382 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 2: I just don't think the fans are particularly happy even 1383 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 2: with a win, or should they. Yes, So they went 1384 01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:38,280 Speaker 2: twenty six to sixteen. Let's see here, fifteen first downs, 1385 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:41,599 Speaker 2: Jason good stuff man, two hundred and twenty two yards 1386 01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 2: of total office. They were outgained by one hundred and 1387 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:45,479 Speaker 2: twenty seven yards. 1388 01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:48,439 Speaker 5: And then there's Nebraska. They had ten drives, ten first 1389 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 5: downs today michig gets good. 1390 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 3: Jay. 1391 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:53,080 Speaker 2: So you and I at the top of next hour 1392 01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:55,439 Speaker 2: we will discuss who is actually the best team in 1393 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 2: college football because I do think well, I'm not gonna 1394 01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:00,280 Speaker 2: spoil it. Let's talk about it. 1395 01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:01,720 Speaker 1: I think there's a conversation to be had. 1396 01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:04,880 Speaker 2: How about that agreed one thousand percent. Let's stay with 1397 01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:07,559 Speaker 2: who is definitely not the best team in the NFL. 1398 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:10,080 Speaker 2: That is the Green Bay Packers. So obviously we just 1399 01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 2: talked about the good of Thursday night, the Detroit Lions 1400 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 2: walking in the Lambeau acting like they own the place. 1401 01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:18,240 Speaker 2: They kind of do after winning two years in a row. 1402 01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 2: With the loss, the Packers fall to two and two, 1403 01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,519 Speaker 2: and you know, they did beat the Saints a few 1404 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:27,519 Speaker 2: weeks ago, but that was kind of a wild late 1405 01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:31,280 Speaker 2: rally eighteen points scored unanswered in the fourth quarter to 1406 01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 2: win that. 1407 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:33,959 Speaker 1: Game, and that was with Derek Carr going out. 1408 01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 2: And that was what Derek Carr going out. And so 1409 01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:38,080 Speaker 2: you look, you look at the Green Bay Packers right now. 1410 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,920 Speaker 2: They are two and two, but kind of a miracle win. 1411 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:45,160 Speaker 2: Their only victory outside of that was against the Bears, 1412 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,679 Speaker 2: who were quite frankly, probably the worst team in the NFL. 1413 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:51,559 Speaker 2: And through four games, Jordan Love fifty six percent completion percentage. 1414 01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,679 Speaker 2: She does have eight touchdowns, does have three interceptions as well. 1415 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:57,120 Speaker 2: Is worth noting, like you know, these guys have been 1416 01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:59,160 Speaker 2: in and out of the lineup Christian Watson hasn't played 1417 01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:02,600 Speaker 2: a ton. You know, there's been other guys banged up 1418 01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 2: throughout the early part of the season, so I want 1419 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 2: to be fair. But at the same time, you know, 1420 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:11,280 Speaker 2: this conversation that really spans the last two three years, 1421 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,880 Speaker 2: Jason is, you know, you essentially run an all time 1422 01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 2: great out of town. You give Jordan Love his shot, 1423 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 2: and unfortunately it's kind of sort of probably what we expected, 1424 01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 2: and it's been a little bit underwhelming early. 1425 01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:25,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. 1426 01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 3: I mean they were going to be highs and lows, 1427 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:31,599 Speaker 3: but I was a little bit skeptical. And I still 1428 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:35,720 Speaker 3: remain that I love By the way, that now it's 1429 01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:39,480 Speaker 3: all Matt Lafleur's fault that Jordan Love is not succeeding 1430 01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:42,760 Speaker 3: at the level that some belief he should be. I 1431 01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 3: think the Lafleur deserves some of the blame. I believe 1432 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:48,760 Speaker 3: that Jordan Love deserves some of the blame, just like 1433 01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 3: I believe that Aaron Rodgers deserves some of the blame 1434 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:53,960 Speaker 3: for the mistakes that he made. And it wasn't all 1435 01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 3: every time it went good, it was Aaron Rodgers. 1436 01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:56,559 Speaker 1: Every time it. 1437 01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:58,920 Speaker 3: Went bad, it was Matt Lafleur. That's not generally how 1438 01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:03,839 Speaker 3: things work in the world. There is praise and blame 1439 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:10,479 Speaker 3: to go around, but Jordan Love, to me shows signs 1440 01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:14,519 Speaker 3: of doing things. The question is consistency that I have 1441 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:18,040 Speaker 3: yet to see, And maybe we shouldn't expect that, considering 1442 01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:22,280 Speaker 3: how few starts he has made and how it's brand 1443 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:24,000 Speaker 3: new to him and he's just kind of coming up 1444 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:25,519 Speaker 3: to speed and he's dealt with a couple of his 1445 01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:30,000 Speaker 3: receivers being injured. They almost beat the Falcons in a 1446 01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,439 Speaker 3: pretty competitive game with a kind of a weird finish 1447 01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:35,680 Speaker 3: there earlier this year. But I definitely think right now 1448 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,800 Speaker 3: it is still way too soon to say anything definitive 1449 01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 3: about Jordan Love other than it's. 1450 01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:43,519 Speaker 1: Gonna take some time. 1451 01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 3: Like anybody thought he was just gonna come in and 1452 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,519 Speaker 3: be a wonder can I think that is out the window. 1453 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 3: That is not a viable take to have at this point. 1454 01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:54,479 Speaker 3: There are flaws there, there's inconsistency there. This is a 1455 01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:56,799 Speaker 3: team that is probably not going to be in the playoffs. 1456 01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:59,040 Speaker 3: They're going to be struggling to have a winning record 1457 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:00,800 Speaker 3: by the end. 1458 01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 1: Of the year. 1459 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:05,240 Speaker 3: And I do I just look at Jordan Love and 1460 01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 3: just say, right now, I think The best you could 1461 01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 3: say for him is about to see C minus somewhere 1462 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:13,400 Speaker 3: in that neighborhood with room to grow. I don't know 1463 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,840 Speaker 3: that his floor is much lower than we have seen, 1464 01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:20,080 Speaker 3: but right now the ceiling is relatively low, just based 1465 01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:21,080 Speaker 3: on what we. 1466 01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 1: Know and what we have seen. 1467 01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, good news for the Packers is they do hit 1468 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,040 Speaker 2: a little bit of a soft spot in the schedule 1469 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:30,679 Speaker 2: at Vegas on Monday Night football next week, so they'll 1470 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 2: have a full basically you know, ten days off before 1471 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:39,479 Speaker 2: their next game. Then too soon at Jason Martin's Denver Broncos. Yeah, 1472 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what if they put up seventy on 1473 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 2: the Broncos, well, we'll certainly have something to talk about. 1474 01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 2: Then Minnesota at home. Obviously Minnesota is struggling themselves, the 1475 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:50,800 Speaker 2: Los Angeles Rams, the Pittsburgh Steelers. So I mean we're 1476 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,800 Speaker 2: talking a real nice stretch for most of October with 1477 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:56,599 Speaker 2: a bye week included, where they can get right by 1478 01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,160 Speaker 2: the way. They could win games and we still might 1479 01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 2: not know much about it. But at least the good 1480 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,599 Speaker 2: news for the Packers they do have a manageable stretch 1481 01:13:03,640 --> 01:13:06,760 Speaker 2: going forward again at Vegas next Monday Night before a 1482 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 2: buy at Denver and then Minnesota at home.

Not yet, official, 1501 01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:10,559 Speaker 5: but this was after all Alvarez, the undisputed super middleweight 1502 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:15,520 Speaker 5: champion against the undisputed junior middleweight champion, Jamel Charlow. 1503 01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:16,680 Speaker 6: Who moved up two divisions for this. 1504 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:20,160 Speaker 5: They both weighed one sixty seven yesterday, both aged thirty three, 1505 01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 5: but an Alrez win will put his career record at 1506 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 5: sixty and two with two draws. He did lose to 1507 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,679 Speaker 5: Floyd Mayweather by decision that is ten years ago now. 1508 01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:33,639 Speaker 5: Also two Braves notes for a certain co host Atlanta 1509 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:36,479 Speaker 5: did win again tonight. That's victory number one oh four. 1510 01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:39,679 Speaker 5: The regular season ends tomorrow. In Major League Baseball. Tonight, 1511 01:14:39,760 --> 01:14:43,000 Speaker 5: Spencer Streider with a victory, his twentieth of the season, 1512 01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,679 Speaker 5: and the Braves are up over three hundred home runs 1513 01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 5: as a team. The record is three to oh seven 1514 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:52,599 Speaker 5: in a season. The Braves have three oh five after tonight, 1515 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,599 Speaker 5: just for the record. In college football, about ten minutes 1516 01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:58,679 Speaker 5: to go, Seventh ranked Washington now leads at Arizona thirty 1517 01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:01,840 Speaker 5: one to seventeen, and Washington is driving for more and 1518 01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 5: the late game on FS one has twenty fifth ranked 1519 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 5: Fresno stayed up seventeen to nothing against Nevad and mid 1520 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 5: third quarter nevad is not only apparently staring at zero 1521 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,880 Speaker 5: to five this season, they're still under one hundred yards 1522 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:15,919 Speaker 5: of offense so far in this game. What a comeback 1523 01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,000 Speaker 5: for Baylor. They were staring at a one and four 1524 01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:21,000 Speaker 5: record this year. They were down at UCF today thirty 1525 01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:24,719 Speaker 5: five to seven and scored twenty nine and answered points 1526 01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 5: to win the game. 1527 01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 1: Won that game. 1528 01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:28,280 Speaker 3: I saw that score at thirty five seven, Just like man, 1529 01:15:28,320 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 3: it's a rough year for Randa. I had no idea 1530 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 3: they came back and won that game. 1531 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:34,080 Speaker 5: Most of that comeback the points were scored in the 1532 01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 5: fourth thirty six thirty five the final. In fact, the 1533 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:40,280 Speaker 5: stat folks at Elias said being down by twenty five 1534 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 5: at the end of three and erasing that against a 1535 01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:47,880 Speaker 5: fellow FBS team the third largest comeback ever on the list. 1536 01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 5: Also the UCLA comeback against Texas A and M, which 1537 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:51,799 Speaker 5: is six years ago. 1538 01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:53,760 Speaker 2: I thought you were going to I thought you're gonna say, Remember, 1539 01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:56,200 Speaker 2: there was a it was like a Washington State game. 1540 01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:58,439 Speaker 2: It was a super late night game. Because Arnie and 1541 01:15:58,439 --> 01:15:59,200 Speaker 2: I were on in this time. 1542 01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:01,120 Speaker 6: There was a comeback. I don't know if it was 1543 01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:02,040 Speaker 6: end of three. 1544 01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:05,479 Speaker 2: Though, true, true, true, true. I want to look up UCLA, right, Yeah, 1545 01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:07,760 Speaker 2: it was UCLA Washington State. I think somebody overcame like 1546 01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:10,080 Speaker 2: a thirty two point deficit or something. 1547 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,680 Speaker 5: It was in the same era where Ucla. That was 1548 01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:14,800 Speaker 5: their season opener at the Rose Bowl. They were down 1549 01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 5: twenty seven going to the fourth quarter. Well, that that 1550 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,920 Speaker 5: would be Josh Rosen game. Yepp, yep, yeah, yeah, he 1551 01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:21,519 Speaker 5: should be like a first rounder or something. 1552 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:27,160 Speaker 2: Washington State. Ucla was down thirty two. Ucla goes on 1553 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:30,960 Speaker 2: to win sixty seven sixty three. Puts that little Old 1554 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 2: LSU o Miss game today to shame. That was in 1555 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen, so it was the last Jar worked with. 1556 01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:39,479 Speaker 2: Arnie s had seven that's right in that game. 1557 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 5: And Charles with ten rebounds as well. Old Miss beat 1558 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 5: LSU fifty five forty nine tonight. In case you did 1559 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 5: not here, Jackson Dart five total touchdowns, Mississippi over seven 1560 01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:53,880 Speaker 5: hundred yards of offense. Well, LSU had nearly six forty 1561 01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 5: and it bears repeating sixty five total first downs in 1562 01:16:57,840 --> 01:16:59,599 Speaker 5: this game. In fact, Old Miss had over three hundred 1563 01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 5: yards pack and three hundred yards rushing. That's how much 1564 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:05,840 Speaker 5: offense there was. And then there's Georgia Tech. They lost 1565 01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,479 Speaker 5: it home to Bowling Green today. In fact, Georgia Tech 1566 01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:11,719 Speaker 5: was down thirty eight twenty going to the fourth Bowling 1567 01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:14,679 Speaker 5: Green thirty eight twenty seven the final. Virginia Tech beat 1568 01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 5: pitt in the ACC tonight. Clemson won at Syracuse today, 1569 01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:20,559 Speaker 5: and Boston College got a late field goal to beat 1570 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:24,080 Speaker 5: Virginia twenty seven twenty four. Virginia is zero to five 1571 01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:26,719 Speaker 5: this season. I don't know if you saw coach Trent 1572 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:30,240 Speaker 5: Dilfer on the sidelines. Man, he lost it in the 1573 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:33,240 Speaker 5: fourth quarter against his own staff. I mean to me, 1574 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:35,240 Speaker 5: that's really crossing the line. 1575 01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:35,720 Speaker 1: It went on. 1576 01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 2: He did out of staff, he did. 1577 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,559 Speaker 5: UAB had a halftime lead but lost it tou Lane 1578 01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:46,599 Speaker 5: and UAB is one and four for Dilford for the record. Also, 1579 01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 5: Memphis edged Boise State thirty five to thirty two. Now 1580 01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 5: number one Georgia, you mentioned early in the show. Next 1581 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:55,559 Speaker 5: Saturday Night is going to be hosting Kentucky. Kentucky beat 1582 01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:58,840 Speaker 5: Florida today thirty three fourteen as Ray Davis had two 1583 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,559 Speaker 5: hundred and eighty yards rushing and four total touchdowns. It 1584 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 5: was Kentucky dominance, up thirty to seven in the third 1585 01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:08,839 Speaker 5: quarter and Devin Leary only had sixty nine yards passing 1586 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:12,479 Speaker 5: in the game. Florida with ten penalties, seemed like they 1587 01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:15,000 Speaker 5: were never in it. At Kentucky. Number one Georgia won 1588 01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,800 Speaker 5: its game twenty seven twenty with a late TD at Auburn. Here, 1589 01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:22,799 Speaker 5: Auburn had over two hundred yards rushing eighty eight yards passing, 1590 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:25,200 Speaker 5: so the quarterback Peyton Thorn great on the ground, they 1591 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:27,800 Speaker 5: had very little through the air. Thorn on his twelve 1592 01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:30,519 Speaker 5: carries ninety two yards rushing. But Auburn is zero and 1593 01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:33,800 Speaker 5: two in conference. Coming up for them LSU and then 1594 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:37,360 Speaker 5: Old Miss. Number two Michigan won at Nebraska forty five 1595 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 5: to seven. Nebraska had a late seventy four yard touchdown run, 1596 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 5: but before that twenty carries just thirty two yards rushing 1597 01:18:45,360 --> 01:18:49,000 Speaker 5: in the game for the Huskers. Michigan, we'd have to repeat, 1598 01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:53,000 Speaker 5: does not play a ranked team until November eleventh this year. 1599 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 5: That'll be the game at Penn State. So until then 1600 01:18:56,320 --> 01:19:01,080 Speaker 5: you'll be seeing Michigan against Minnesota, Indiana, Michigan State, Perdue. 1601 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:03,880 Speaker 5: Penn State ranked sixth in the country. This week, it 1602 01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:07,160 Speaker 5: was tied at Northwestern ten ten in the third quarter, 1603 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:10,400 Speaker 5: forty one to thirteen. Penn State the final. Its defense 1604 01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 5: had seven sacks tenn State is off next week and 1605 01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 5: then it will play Massachusetts. For a lot of opponents, 1606 01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:19,880 Speaker 5: that's kind of like an off week. Northwestern's offense thirteen drives, 1607 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:23,879 Speaker 5: twelve first downs today. Wildcat's next four games are against 1608 01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:28,719 Speaker 5: Howard and Nebraska, then Maryland and Iowa. And USC held 1609 01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:32,040 Speaker 5: on to win at Colorado forty eight forty one. Although 1610 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:36,799 Speaker 5: Shedor Sanders did have five total touchdowns, but Caleb Williams 1611 01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 5: had six touchdown passes. In fact, he got USC to 1612 01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:42,759 Speaker 5: a forty eight twenty one lead late in the third quarter. 1613 01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:46,400 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Steve the seger Sis, Fox Sports Radio, 1614 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:49,680 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Saturday aeron Torres, Jason Martin broadcasting live from 1615 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 2: thee tyreck dot com studios.

They win by a touchdown, 1638 01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:16,880 Speaker 2: as the SEGA just told us, notreed aame one in 1639 01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:21,240 Speaker 2: the final minute by by one score. You know, USC 1640 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:25,400 Speaker 2: wins by a touchdown, but no, you know, by the way, 1641 01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:27,599 Speaker 2: Ohio State had to buy this week, Florida State had 1642 01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:29,720 Speaker 2: to buy a couple couple of teams you know, ended 1643 01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:32,880 Speaker 2: up being out. So I want to rather than you know, 1644 01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 2: reset a like, what does USC like? We know their 1645 01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 2: defense thinks. So, by the way, we talked about USC's 1646 01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 2: defense at the top of the show. If anybody missed it, 1647 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:43,479 Speaker 2: make sure to download the podcast shortly after we go 1648 01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:46,559 Speaker 2: off air here at two am Eastern time. But why 1649 01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:48,720 Speaker 2: I bring it up, Jason, is because you mentioned it 1650 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:50,680 Speaker 2: earlier in the show, and I think it's I think 1651 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:53,960 Speaker 2: it's a good time to really reset and really just 1652 01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 2: talk about the college football season as a whole, because, 1653 01:21:57,520 --> 01:21:58,480 Speaker 2: as you said. 1654 01:21:58,360 --> 01:21:58,519 Speaker 1: Like. 1655 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,600 Speaker 2: A lot of the sport will be through half of 1656 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:05,800 Speaker 2: its season at this time next week. I think that, 1657 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:09,439 Speaker 2: which is sad, sad and true. Notre Dame actually played 1658 01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:12,439 Speaker 2: its sixth game this tonight, so they're halfway through their season. 1659 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:15,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, the season, as it always does, is flying 1660 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:19,320 Speaker 2: on by. And what I think separates this year from 1661 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:23,160 Speaker 2: from previous years is that the teams that we expect 1662 01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:27,559 Speaker 2: to be at the top, really you know, the ones 1663 01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:31,160 Speaker 2: that have historically been there are struggling a bit. Clemson 1664 01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:34,840 Speaker 2: already has two losses. Alabama obviously lost to Texas at home, 1665 01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:40,400 Speaker 2: Ohio State survived against Notre Dame, and so between schools 1666 01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:43,639 Speaker 2: like a Texas of Florida State emerging. Georgia's the number 1667 01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:45,640 Speaker 2: one team in the country struggles today wins by a 1668 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:50,360 Speaker 2: touchdown at Olivern. Michigan really hasn't played anybody. It doesn't 1669 01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:53,519 Speaker 2: feel like there is that clear cut, super obvious this 1670 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,640 Speaker 2: is the definitive best team in college football, or even 1671 01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:59,679 Speaker 2: I'll take a step further. I don't feel like there's 1672 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:04,439 Speaker 2: even definitive tier to college football, like a two or 1673 01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:06,960 Speaker 2: three team tier. I think there's maybe a tier about 1674 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:09,600 Speaker 2: seven or eight at the top of the sport. But 1675 01:23:10,760 --> 01:23:14,040 Speaker 2: let's have the conversation that you brought up earlier. Who 1676 01:23:14,080 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 2: do you think right now do you believe there is 1677 01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:18,360 Speaker 2: the best team in college football? And if there is, 1678 01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:19,519 Speaker 2: who do you believe that it is. 1679 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:21,040 Speaker 1: I don't know that it's clear. 1680 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:22,920 Speaker 3: I think that there was an argument that we had, 1681 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:26,799 Speaker 3: and that's why I thought the discussion was worthy. Georgia 1682 01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 3: hasn't lost now in six hundred depending on where you 1683 01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:32,799 Speaker 3: are in the country, six hundred and sixty six days. 1684 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 2: Whoa that can be? 1685 01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 1: It's been a long time. 1686 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:38,120 Speaker 3: Let's get to Monday, please, so that we don't have 1687 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:41,120 Speaker 3: that number in front of us. But this was a 1688 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 3: challenge for them, and they have been flat plenty this year. 1689 01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:48,120 Speaker 3: It wasn't like this came out of nowhere. They were 1690 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,920 Speaker 3: behind fourteen to three to Shaneamer South Carolina team a 1691 01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:54,720 Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago. They couldn't even pull away from 1692 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:59,439 Speaker 3: UAB until the second half. They just have been flat 1693 01:23:59,560 --> 01:24:01,720 Speaker 3: at times now when they've needed to turn it on, 1694 01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 3: it's been there for them. And the question is is 1695 01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:06,680 Speaker 3: that going to continue to happen or are they going 1696 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:08,920 Speaker 3: to stop putting themselves in a situation where they need 1697 01:24:08,920 --> 01:24:09,559 Speaker 3: it to happen. 1698 01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,200 Speaker 1: But they're still undefeated and they haven't lost it multiple years. 1699 01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:18,280 Speaker 3: Michigan is killing everybody they're playing, but I'm not sure 1700 01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:23,559 Speaker 3: that they are actually playing Division two schools right now, 1701 01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:25,960 Speaker 3: Like I mean, they haven't played anybody, so we have 1702 01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:28,400 Speaker 3: no idea what to make of them. What's the most 1703 01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,920 Speaker 3: impressive win of the year. I guess it is still 1704 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:36,519 Speaker 3: Texas going to Alabama and winning. So Texas is number three, Aaron, 1705 01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:40,519 Speaker 3: I think you could at least make the case that 1706 01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:43,920 Speaker 3: Texas could be number one. I'm not saying that I 1707 01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,479 Speaker 3: would necessarily do it, but I wouldn't object to it 1708 01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:49,840 Speaker 3: if you did it based on what they have done 1709 01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:53,639 Speaker 3: and these last two games, but the Baylor game last 1710 01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:57,320 Speaker 3: week and then today's game, these are the kind of 1711 01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:00,880 Speaker 3: games that Texas has lost for y years and years 1712 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 3: and years and years. This is the kind of game 1713 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:06,519 Speaker 3: Steve Sarkisian loses. Well, they ran away in both of 1714 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:09,840 Speaker 3: those contests and looked really good doing it, and they've 1715 01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 3: gone to Tuscaloosa and beaten Alabama, which may still again 1716 01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:17,439 Speaker 3: be the best win of the season if you. 1717 01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,719 Speaker 1: Look at it cumulatively at this point. 1718 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 3: So I think you could argue probably for any of 1719 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,160 Speaker 3: those three teams. I don't know that you're going to 1720 01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:29,479 Speaker 3: change what's already there, but I definitely think that Texas 1721 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:31,640 Speaker 3: has a strong argument based on what we've seen on 1722 01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 3: the field. 1723 01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:34,840 Speaker 2: I think there's two other teams that you can make 1724 01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,800 Speaker 2: the argument for number one, maybe even three if you 1725 01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:40,040 Speaker 2: want to include Ohio State. I don't know that I 1726 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:43,479 Speaker 2: would include them. I think you can absolutely make the 1727 01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 2: case for Florida State. 1728 01:25:44,720 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 1: Now, yeah, you're right about that. 1729 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it loses a little bit of its luster with 1730 01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 2: LSU performing the way that it did tonight, Not just 1731 01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:55,120 Speaker 2: that they lost, but the defense clearly is broken. But 1732 01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,400 Speaker 2: for Florida State, what was it a thirty one to 1733 01:25:57,400 --> 01:26:02,640 Speaker 2: nothing run in that game last week against Clemson? They 1734 01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:04,920 Speaker 2: win at Clemson. They don't look great, but Jordan Travis, 1735 01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:06,360 Speaker 2: I think was a little bit banged up. I think 1736 01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:08,519 Speaker 2: they kind of needed that buy And you look at 1737 01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:11,880 Speaker 2: Florida State's schedule. This doesn't necessarily pour tend to who's 1738 01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:14,200 Speaker 2: the best team in the country, but the schedule, this 1739 01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:16,320 Speaker 2: was actually the tough part of their schedule that Florida 1740 01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 2: State already played. Now the ACC is a little bit 1741 01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:21,160 Speaker 2: better than maybe we thought, so all of a sudden, 1742 01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:23,040 Speaker 2: a game against Duke is in as easy. They play 1743 01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:26,320 Speaker 2: Miami at home. Miami's playing pretty well, but I think 1744 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:29,560 Speaker 2: you could argue, I would argue maybe the best performance 1745 01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 2: that I have seen all year was Florida State against LSU, 1746 01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:37,360 Speaker 2: that dominant second half. I think you can also, I 1747 01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:41,000 Speaker 2: think you can make the case for Oregon. I know 1748 01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:44,120 Speaker 2: that kind of the spotlight game was Colorado, and maybe 1749 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:49,080 Speaker 2: Colorado's not that good, but regardless of regardless of opposition, 1750 01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:51,400 Speaker 2: let me just read you the final scores of their games, 1751 01:26:52,080 --> 01:26:56,639 Speaker 2: eighty one to seven, thirty eight to thirty fifty five 1752 01:26:56,760 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 2: to ten, forty two to six, forty two to six. Now, granted, 1753 01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:05,479 Speaker 2: the two conference wins were against Colorado, who you know, 1754 01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:09,200 Speaker 2: we've talked plenty about them. Stanford is not good. And 1755 01:27:09,240 --> 01:27:11,519 Speaker 2: then the other wins are Portland at Texas Tech where 1756 01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:13,680 Speaker 2: they had to rally in Hawaii. But you know, I 1757 01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:16,320 Speaker 2: think for the most part they've looked really good as well. 1758 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:19,760 Speaker 2: I will say that if I had to pick a 1759 01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:24,040 Speaker 2: best team, and maybe it is total recency bias, and 1760 01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:27,599 Speaker 2: maybe this is the wrong thing to say, what I 1761 01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:32,160 Speaker 2: do think that the Florida State performance against LSU is 1762 01:27:32,200 --> 01:27:34,360 Speaker 2: the best performance I've seen from anybody all year. 1763 01:27:34,439 --> 01:27:36,759 Speaker 3: Actually, I would actually look at that and the Clemson 1764 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 3: win and say that's the most impressive resume, for sure 1765 01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:41,559 Speaker 3: of the of all. 1766 01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:43,920 Speaker 1: The teams out there, including the Texas argument I made 1767 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:44,640 Speaker 1: with Alabama. 1768 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:47,519 Speaker 3: You beat LSU and you went to Death Valley and 1769 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:50,240 Speaker 3: beat Clemson in overtime in that game, And Clemson does 1770 01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:53,280 Speaker 3: look a lot better right now than maybe they did 1771 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:55,759 Speaker 3: when they lost to Duke. They're still a pretty solid 1772 01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:58,799 Speaker 3: football team. So I think that is a very strong argument. 1773 01:27:58,880 --> 01:28:01,000 Speaker 3: Like I easily think they could be number one. 1774 01:28:01,360 --> 01:28:04,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the thing I would say though, too. I 1775 01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:07,559 Speaker 2: do think even though they haven't played anybody, I think 1776 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:09,920 Speaker 2: there's a case for Michigan. I really do for sure. Yeah, 1777 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,960 Speaker 2: maybe that's not right, but I think what I saw 1778 01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 2: today was so impressive. And I know it's Nebraska and 1779 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 2: they have been good in foreveryone whatever. Like I said, 1780 01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:21,040 Speaker 2: Nebraska was a top twenty defense coming in. They were 1781 01:28:21,040 --> 01:28:24,760 Speaker 2: giving up eighteen points per game. Michigan had twenty eight 1782 01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 2: at the half and they cruise to a forty five 1783 01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:30,479 Speaker 2: to seven victory. And the Nebraska run defense was one 1784 01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:34,320 Speaker 2: of the best in the country. And Michigan had two 1785 01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:37,439 Speaker 2: hundred and forty nine yards on the ground five five 1786 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:41,479 Speaker 2: yards per carry. And JJ McCarthy he isn't asked to 1787 01:28:41,479 --> 01:28:44,000 Speaker 2: do a lot, but he was good again. Now he 1788 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:46,400 Speaker 2: can be a little erratic at times, and I think 1789 01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:49,439 Speaker 2: there's a conversation to have about him of kind of 1790 01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:51,519 Speaker 2: what we saw in the College Football playoff last year. 1791 01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:54,880 Speaker 2: There was one time last season that he kind of 1792 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:57,640 Speaker 2: had to carry that team, throw the ball over the 1793 01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:00,680 Speaker 2: field and he had what two pick six whatever it 1794 01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:02,880 Speaker 2: was against TCU, and they ended up losing that game. 1795 01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:06,000 Speaker 2: And so are you gonna do the same thing this year, 1796 01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:08,160 Speaker 2: where you ground and pound, and then you get into 1797 01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:10,280 Speaker 2: a playoff scenario where you're playing one of these teams 1798 01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:14,839 Speaker 2: that you're talking about, a Texas of Florida State and Alabama, Georgia, whoever, 1799 01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:17,000 Speaker 2: and you are gonna have to throw the ball and 1800 01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:20,479 Speaker 2: maybe you're not prepared for it. But I just look 1801 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:22,200 Speaker 2: at a team that has not given up more than 1802 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:27,639 Speaker 2: seven points to any opposition all year, completely dominant run game. 1803 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:31,400 Speaker 2: It looks like probably the best offensive line in college football. Again, 1804 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:33,479 Speaker 2: they don't miss a beat now. As de Seger said, 1805 01:29:33,479 --> 01:29:36,519 Speaker 2: the schedule is really soft, and you know, sometimes you 1806 01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 2: look at a schedule like even Georgia's schedule, you know, 1807 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 2: Kentucky's maybe even though they're un rank, they're probably better 1808 01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:44,920 Speaker 2: than people are giving them credit for Ole Miss can 1809 01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:49,240 Speaker 2: move the ball the next four for Michigan or at Minnesota, Indiana, 1810 01:29:49,360 --> 01:29:52,920 Speaker 2: at Michigan State and Purdue. I don't see any of 1811 01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:55,720 Speaker 2: those games being very competitive and so all yeah, So 1812 01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:57,240 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you're talking about a team that's 1813 01:29:57,240 --> 01:29:59,920 Speaker 2: five and zero now probably gonna be nine to zero 1814 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:03,479 Speaker 2: going into November, where they obviously will face the toughest 1815 01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:05,880 Speaker 2: part of their schedule at penn State at Maryland in 1816 01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 2: Ohio State at home. 1817 01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:08,719 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna make them one another point, just because 1818 01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:11,120 Speaker 3: we haven't mentioned them and they're playing right now Washington. 1819 01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:13,480 Speaker 1: Washington's undefeated. 1820 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:16,080 Speaker 3: Let me tell you what a game looks like, folks. 1821 01:30:16,640 --> 01:30:21,559 Speaker 3: October the fourteenth, Husky Stadium, Oregon against Washington, both of 1822 01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:24,160 Speaker 3: them coming off of bye next week, Neither one of 1823 01:30:24,160 --> 01:30:27,000 Speaker 3: them are playing. Their next game is against each other. 1824 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:30,639 Speaker 3: They're both undefeated. Pennix and Knicks are both playing out 1825 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:32,680 Speaker 3: of their minds. These are teams that I'm looking at 1826 01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:35,479 Speaker 3: total yards right now, Oregon five to seventy a game, 1827 01:30:36,040 --> 01:30:40,160 Speaker 3: Washington five ninety three a game yards allowed. Oregon's better 1828 01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:42,680 Speaker 3: in that category, But if you look at both of 1829 01:30:42,720 --> 01:30:46,719 Speaker 3: their schedules in general, neither one of them has really 1830 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:50,200 Speaker 3: done anything where you look at the opponent and are blown. 1831 01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:53,720 Speaker 1: Away by it. But these are two real, real good 1832 01:30:53,800 --> 01:30:54,759 Speaker 1: football teams. 1833 01:30:54,800 --> 01:30:56,920 Speaker 3: And I think if you want to make the Oregon argument, 1834 01:30:57,040 --> 01:30:59,240 Speaker 3: if you want to make the Oregon argument, I'm here 1835 01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:00,680 Speaker 3: to listen to it, and I think you've got to 1836 01:31:00,680 --> 01:31:02,720 Speaker 3: include Washington and that discussion as well. 1837 01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:04,479 Speaker 1: And then, of course, if you're talking about. 1838 01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:06,880 Speaker 3: Those two, then USC is still seeing their undefeated also, 1839 01:31:06,960 --> 01:31:09,800 Speaker 3: even though we think that's just an accident waiting to 1840 01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:11,320 Speaker 3: happen because the defense is just. 1841 01:31:11,280 --> 01:31:12,000 Speaker 1: Not good enough. 1842 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:15,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely should have included Washington that they're up as 1843 01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:18,439 Speaker 2: we speak thirty one seventeen closing minutes against Arizona. They 1844 01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:20,839 Speaker 2: will improve to five and zero. And what you said, Jason, 1845 01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:23,559 Speaker 2: I love, and I know there's no way that anyone 1846 01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:26,080 Speaker 2: could have known this when the schedule was put together, 1847 01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:29,120 Speaker 2: even if you knew Oregon's always good, Washington was much 1848 01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 2: improved last year. I don't think there's any way to 1849 01:31:31,160 --> 01:31:33,599 Speaker 2: know that these two teams would have looked the way 1850 01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:37,120 Speaker 2: that they have. And they both get a bye. So 1851 01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:39,280 Speaker 2: I love that they'll both be one hundred percent going 1852 01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:42,000 Speaker 2: into that game. That game two weeks from now will 1853 01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:45,320 Speaker 2: be in Seattle, and you just talk about just a 1854 01:31:45,360 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 2: heavyweight battle there. Cannot wait to watch that. So, if 1855 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:50,920 Speaker 2: if I had to ask you, if you were an 1856 01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:53,760 Speaker 2: AP voter, and you do this in whatever you want, 1857 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:56,400 Speaker 2: whether it's resume, whether it's eye test, whether it's whatever, 1858 01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,479 Speaker 2: if you had to make a vote today number one 1859 01:31:59,479 --> 01:32:00,960 Speaker 2: team in the who would you make it? 1860 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:03,360 Speaker 1: Gosh, it's so hard because I'm trying to figure in. 1861 01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:05,720 Speaker 3: Am I just looking at what I've seen on the 1862 01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:08,400 Speaker 3: field and what they've done this year, or am I 1863 01:32:08,479 --> 01:32:11,800 Speaker 3: looking at just overall talent and all of that, because 1864 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:15,400 Speaker 3: it's hard to pick against Georgia even with the struggles 1865 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:18,160 Speaker 3: that they've had, because nobody can beat them and I 1866 01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:21,800 Speaker 3: haven't seen anybody beat them since the SEC Championship game 1867 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:22,719 Speaker 3: two years ago. 1868 01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:25,000 Speaker 1: So it's really. 1869 01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:27,559 Speaker 3: Hard the team that you have to throw out a 1870 01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:29,560 Speaker 3: lot of what you saw last year just because a 1871 01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:31,519 Speaker 3: lot of those guys are not there. But brock Bauer 1872 01:32:31,680 --> 01:32:35,000 Speaker 3: still is and some of these other guys actually still are, 1873 01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:37,920 Speaker 3: and Carson Beck really does look good a lot of 1874 01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 3: the time, and they still run the ball really effectively. 1875 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:44,920 Speaker 3: And I think I would still go Georgia because no 1876 01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 3: one's beaten them yet. But I think that if you 1877 01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:50,880 Speaker 3: were just asking me who the best team in the 1878 01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:54,679 Speaker 3: country is right now today, Michigan would probably be my answer. 1879 01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:57,760 Speaker 3: But that's real bias because I'm basing it on who 1880 01:32:57,840 --> 01:32:59,360 Speaker 3: they played, which is real difficult. 1881 01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:02,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, to say two is that's kind of how I feel. 1882 01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:06,400 Speaker 2: Is I guess my my my gut would tell me Michigan. 1883 01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:09,439 Speaker 2: But if I'm holding it if I'm not gonna hold 1884 01:33:09,479 --> 01:33:12,720 Speaker 2: it against them that they haven't played anybody, then I 1885 01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:15,240 Speaker 2: can't really hold it against Georgia. But I will say 1886 01:33:15,240 --> 01:33:20,160 Speaker 2: Michigan has looked much better against inferior competition. But you know, 1887 01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 2: I think, like you said it one. First of all, 1888 01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:24,080 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any real answer. I don't think 1889 01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:27,240 Speaker 2: there's any team that anyone could definitively say, well, this 1890 01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:28,760 Speaker 2: is the answer, and there's no other art. 1891 01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:30,240 Speaker 3: That's a good thing, by the way, I think that's 1892 01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:32,840 Speaker 3: a good thing because you do have a discussion this year. 1893 01:33:32,920 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 3: It's not just there is one team and everybody else. No, 1894 01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:39,360 Speaker 3: there's a handful of teams that you could actually have 1895 01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:40,439 Speaker 3: a discussion about. 1896 01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:43,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll say this too, And I was a guy 1897 01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:45,920 Speaker 2: through the years. I haven't been somebody that feels like, 1898 01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:49,040 Speaker 2: oh my goodness, we need a twelve team playoff, because 1899 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:51,080 Speaker 2: I think most years it kind of settles itself out. 1900 01:33:51,720 --> 01:33:54,080 Speaker 2: This is the year that it feels like, man like 1901 01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:56,519 Speaker 2: and we're getting there next year, but like, this is 1902 01:33:56,560 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 2: the year that there's going to be good teams that 1903 01:34:01,800 --> 01:34:04,920 Speaker 2: you're like, like, you know, USC, Washington and Oregon are 1904 01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,600 Speaker 2: all still playing each other, and you know, I, like 1905 01:34:08,640 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 2: we said about USC, I don't love USC. I don't 1906 01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:14,040 Speaker 2: think you do either. But even if we agree Washington 1907 01:34:14,040 --> 01:34:16,800 Speaker 2: and Oregon are both awesome, somebody's got to lose that game, 1908 01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:20,760 Speaker 2: and you know, you put them in a playoff scenario 1909 01:34:20,880 --> 01:34:23,559 Speaker 2: with twelve teams, and maybe those are teams that could 1910 01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:25,320 Speaker 2: win even if they were to lose. So the point 1911 01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:27,360 Speaker 2: I'm trying to make, you know, between those two, between 1912 01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:29,879 Speaker 2: the three and the Big Ten with Ohio State, Michigan, 1913 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:33,400 Speaker 2: and Penn State, it just it just feels like this 1914 01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:37,559 Speaker 2: is the year where where the playing field is flatter, 1915 01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:40,640 Speaker 2: where it is more balanced, and because of it, you 1916 01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:42,920 Speaker 2: do kind of wish that there was a twelve team 1917 01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:45,679 Speaker 2: playoff this year because I think that, like I said, 1918 01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:48,639 Speaker 2: if there's an upper group, it's a group. Usually it's 1919 01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:51,240 Speaker 2: a group of one to two to maybe three, and 1920 01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 2: this year, Jason, it feels like it's a group of 1921 01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:56,839 Speaker 2: like seven or eight coming into you know, the midway 1922 01:34:56,840 --> 01:34:57,679 Speaker 2: point of this season. 1923 01:34:57,760 --> 01:35:01,600 Speaker 3: So yeah, by the way, we talked about that Washington team, 1924 01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:07,120 Speaker 3: Arizona just scored. There's like a minute left and it's 1925 01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:08,920 Speaker 3: thirty one to twenty four, so we're about to see 1926 01:35:08,960 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 3: an on sidekick in that ballgame. So that's that's gotten 1927 01:35:12,520 --> 01:35:13,200 Speaker 3: a little bit tight. 1928 01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:15,719 Speaker 2: Well, you keep us updated since you're the only person 1929 01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:18,639 Speaker 2: besides Arnie Spaniard that has the PAC twelve network.

As Jason just said, a minute 1934 01:35:27,760 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 2: eight left in that game. Fox Sports Radio eron towards 1935 01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:33,360 Speaker 2: Jason Martin.

Washington is playing the Arizona Wildcats. 1946 01:36:23,520 --> 01:36:28,280 Speaker 2: Washington did recover the on side kick. They got the 1947 01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:33,160 Speaker 2: ball back. Arizona had two timeouts and Arizona Washington ran 1948 01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:37,439 Speaker 2: three plays. They now have a fourth and one. There 1949 01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:42,200 Speaker 2: are ten seconds left on the clock. It is unsure 1950 01:36:42,240 --> 01:36:44,920 Speaker 2: if Washington is just gonna go for it on fourth 1951 01:36:44,960 --> 01:36:47,920 Speaker 2: down to try and convert and end the game, or 1952 01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:51,640 Speaker 2: if they will pooch punt it away. They are inside 1953 01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:55,760 Speaker 2: of Arizona territories, so we will keep you updated on 1954 01:36:56,080 --> 01:37:00,479 Speaker 2: that again. At Washington up by a touchdown ten seconds left, 1955 01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:04,040 Speaker 2: it is fourth and one. Washington, of course trying to 1956 01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:07,240 Speaker 2: improve to five and zero. Jason, I'm not gonna. I'm 1957 01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:09,040 Speaker 2: trying to vamp so we can get this final play here, 1958 01:37:09,040 --> 01:37:12,519 Speaker 2: see if they get it or not, and Washington will 1959 01:37:12,520 --> 01:37:15,040 Speaker 2: get a first down to seal the game under ten 1960 01:37:15,120 --> 01:37:17,880 Speaker 2: seconds left. Were you gonna say something, Jason. 1961 01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:19,519 Speaker 3: No, I was just saying that I was keeping you 1962 01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:22,559 Speaker 3: up to date seeing Sol. You know, there's nothing quite 1963 01:37:22,600 --> 01:37:24,519 Speaker 3: as pack twelve as Tennessee. 1964 01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:26,640 Speaker 1: Oh, or we get the Pack twelve network to have 1965 01:37:26,680 --> 01:37:27,479 Speaker 1: watched the end of that. 1966 01:37:27,720 --> 01:37:30,160 Speaker 2: Oh, there is one thing that's that's more Packed twelve 1967 01:37:30,200 --> 01:37:33,040 Speaker 2: than this. How about the hottest team in college football 1968 01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:35,760 Speaker 2: from a ratings perspective, the Colorado Buffaloes will be on 1969 01:37:35,760 --> 01:37:37,080 Speaker 2: the Pack twelve networks next week. 1970 01:37:37,280 --> 01:37:38,120 Speaker 1: That's good stuff. 1971 01:37:38,560 --> 01:37:42,160 Speaker 2: I mean, this conference just can't get out of its 1972 01:37:42,160 --> 01:37:45,360 Speaker 2: own way in its final year, continues to screw itself. 1973 01:37:45,400 --> 01:37:48,960 Speaker 2: So Washington does hold on to When they officially beat 1974 01:37:49,160 --> 01:37:52,040 Speaker 2: the Arizona Wildcats thirty one to twenty four, is the 1975 01:37:52,040 --> 01:37:55,880 Speaker 2: final there. As Jason mentioned last segment, Washington, undefeated in 1976 01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:59,000 Speaker 2: the top ten, now has a buy as does Oregon 1977 01:37:59,160 --> 01:38:01,840 Speaker 2: in the top ten. They will play each other two 1978 01:38:01,920 --> 01:38:05,800 Speaker 2: Saturdays from now, October fourteenth, a top ten matchup. We 1979 01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:08,479 Speaker 2: don't have a game time for that, but it'll be 1980 01:38:08,560 --> 01:38:10,840 Speaker 2: a good one. Cannot wait for that. Tell you what, Jason, 1981 01:38:10,880 --> 01:38:12,960 Speaker 2: I do want to switch gears and switch to the 1982 01:38:13,080 --> 01:38:16,160 Speaker 2: NFL as we enter week four. What I do want 1983 01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:18,799 Speaker 2: to do. I want to bring in producer Pat. Pat's 1984 01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:21,160 Speaker 2: gonna set us up. Tell us what games that we 1985 01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:23,479 Speaker 2: need to talk about today. We'll talk about a little bit, Jason, Patt. 1986 01:38:23,479 --> 01:38:27,200 Speaker 2: The floor is yours, all right, gentlemen. We have some 1987 01:38:27,280 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 2: of the best and hottest games coming up tomorrow, but 1988 01:38:30,479 --> 01:38:33,320 Speaker 2: let's get cracking with it. One of the hottest games 1989 01:38:33,720 --> 01:38:37,280 Speaker 2: if not. The hottest game is the Miami Dolphins, fresh 1990 01:38:37,320 --> 01:38:41,000 Speaker 2: off of that seventy to twenty win against Denver last week, 1991 01:38:41,040 --> 01:38:44,920 Speaker 2: going against the Buffalo Bills, who are home, by the way, 1992 01:38:45,160 --> 01:38:49,200 Speaker 2: Buffy home against Dolphins, And I'm gonna I'm gonna lie 1993 01:38:49,200 --> 01:38:53,439 Speaker 2: with you, guys. The Bills are about minus one hundred 1994 01:38:53,439 --> 01:38:56,599 Speaker 2: and forty two on the money line right now, very 1995 01:38:56,640 --> 01:39:00,360 Speaker 2: slim favorites over Buffalo Bills. We're doing like actually points, 1996 01:39:00,520 --> 01:39:04,160 Speaker 2: it's a They're at two and a half favorites. Now, Aaron, 1997 01:39:04,280 --> 01:39:06,160 Speaker 2: what do you think who you can take the Buffalo 1998 01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:09,320 Speaker 2: Bills in Miami Dolphins. Buffies don't remember that. Yeah, it's 1999 01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:13,080 Speaker 2: you know, listen, it's the game of the day. And 2000 01:39:13,560 --> 01:39:16,320 Speaker 2: I'll say this is like, I mean, Buffalo being a 2001 01:39:16,360 --> 01:39:18,320 Speaker 2: favorite is a I mean, I guess it's a little 2002 01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:20,360 Speaker 2: bit surprising to me. But it also feels like one 2003 01:39:20,360 --> 01:39:23,719 Speaker 2: of those situations where Vegas clearly wants you to take Miami. 2004 01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:26,679 Speaker 2: Miami just put up seventy. But I'll tell you why, Jason, 2005 01:39:26,680 --> 01:39:29,040 Speaker 2: we didn't get a chance to talk about Miami last segment. 2006 01:39:29,720 --> 01:39:32,960 Speaker 2: I think they have to be the most likable team 2007 01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:35,519 Speaker 2: in the NFL. And I was thinking about this before 2008 01:39:35,520 --> 01:39:38,080 Speaker 2: the show is the combination of, like, I don't know 2009 01:39:38,120 --> 01:39:40,679 Speaker 2: how you can't like two after everything that he's gone through, 2010 01:39:41,160 --> 01:39:44,600 Speaker 2: and the Dolphins haven't won anything in thirty years, and 2011 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:46,479 Speaker 2: so I bring it up because it's like, how can 2012 01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:48,640 Speaker 2: you root against them? They're not the Patriots, they're not 2013 01:39:48,680 --> 01:39:52,559 Speaker 2: the whoever. They've just been bad for a long time 2014 01:39:52,720 --> 01:39:55,400 Speaker 2: or not good at the very least. I will take 2015 01:39:55,439 --> 01:39:57,599 Speaker 2: Miami to win because I'm sorry, I'm not betting against 2016 01:39:57,640 --> 01:40:00,200 Speaker 2: a team that just put up seventy points the other day. 2017 01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:03,200 Speaker 2: But I just like this Miami story. It's something fresh, 2018 01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:05,640 Speaker 2: it's something different. Sorry about what they did to your 2019 01:40:05,640 --> 01:40:07,479 Speaker 2: Denver Broncos, by the way, but I am enjoying this 2020 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:08,240 Speaker 2: Miami story. 2021 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:11,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, they have the best offensive football right now. 2022 01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 3: I understand the Chiefs still exist, But what Mike McDaniel 2023 01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:19,960 Speaker 3: was doing, how he is you utilizing his talent? I mean, 2024 01:40:20,040 --> 01:40:23,479 Speaker 3: what Devin A Chain did last week, that's the first 2025 01:40:23,479 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 3: time you've really gotten to see him, and you got 2026 01:40:25,240 --> 01:40:27,840 Speaker 3: to see that in addition to what Moster did. It 2027 01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:29,840 Speaker 3: wasn't even as much through the air, and it was 2028 01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:32,960 Speaker 3: still really impressive through there. Right now too is probably 2029 01:40:32,960 --> 01:40:36,280 Speaker 3: the MVP front runner in the NFL, and now we'll 2030 01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:39,240 Speaker 3: see if he's able to stay upright throughout the season 2031 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:41,040 Speaker 3: to where that sticks. 2032 01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:43,840 Speaker 1: But right now, they're either the. 2033 01:40:43,800 --> 01:40:46,040 Speaker 3: Best team in the league or they're one of the 2034 01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:48,799 Speaker 3: top three, and Buffalo I think that's why. 2035 01:40:49,439 --> 01:40:51,280 Speaker 1: So it's a two and a half point game, and I. 2036 01:40:51,200 --> 01:40:53,760 Speaker 3: Think you get three at home anyway, So it really 2037 01:40:53,800 --> 01:40:56,200 Speaker 3: feels more like a pick him kind of game. This 2038 01:40:56,240 --> 01:40:59,240 Speaker 3: is a game where Buffalo's probably circled it, and what 2039 01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:02,880 Speaker 3: they want to show is it still comes through us 2040 01:41:02,920 --> 01:41:06,120 Speaker 3: in this division. As good as you think you are, 2041 01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:08,880 Speaker 3: you're still gonna have to beat us if you want 2042 01:41:08,880 --> 01:41:10,840 Speaker 3: to be if you want to be champions. 2043 01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:12,599 Speaker 1: Of the AFC East. So this is a pride game 2044 01:41:12,640 --> 01:41:13,320 Speaker 1: for Buffalo. 2045 01:41:13,880 --> 01:41:17,200 Speaker 3: For Miami, it is we've arrived and we're gonna take it, 2046 01:41:17,280 --> 01:41:19,120 Speaker 3: and we're gonna kick your teeth down in your throat. 2047 01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:22,120 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a great matchup. It is. 2048 01:41:22,200 --> 01:41:26,880 Speaker 3: You've got Tyreek Hill and Stefan Diggs. You've got Tua 2049 01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 3: and Josh Allen. You've got a lot of just big 2050 01:41:30,920 --> 01:41:34,760 Speaker 3: time game changing guys on both sides. I like Miami 2051 01:41:36,080 --> 01:41:41,400 Speaker 3: right now over Buffalo. Generally, I like Buffalo in this 2052 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:45,320 Speaker 3: game over Miami because they're at home. 2053 01:41:45,479 --> 01:41:47,639 Speaker 1: If they were playing in Miami, I think I would feel. 2054 01:41:47,520 --> 01:41:50,000 Speaker 3: The opposite way. I just feel like that place is 2055 01:41:50,040 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 3: gonna be rocking, Buffalo is gonna be loud, and so 2056 01:41:53,479 --> 01:41:54,599 Speaker 3: I'll take the Bills. 2057 01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:56,639 Speaker 1: But I just want to sit back and watch that one. 2058 01:41:56,680 --> 01:41:59,679 Speaker 3: That's the kind of game where there's red zone happening, 2059 01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:02,320 Speaker 3: and I'm I'm a red zone guy, but I'm gonna 2060 01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:05,080 Speaker 3: have to have a second screen that is doing nothing 2061 01:42:05,120 --> 01:42:07,519 Speaker 3: but watching Miami Buffalo because I think it's got the 2062 01:42:07,640 --> 01:42:09,120 Speaker 3: chance to be that good. 2063 01:42:09,400 --> 01:42:10,639 Speaker 2: All Right, awesome, awesome. 2064 01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:13,320 Speaker 8: So we got yours with that one, Jason, So we're 2065 01:42:13,320 --> 01:42:15,920 Speaker 8: gonna that was one we're gonna go probably arguably the 2066 01:42:15,960 --> 01:42:19,000 Speaker 8: second craziest best game that we got lined up for us, 2067 01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:23,240 Speaker 8: and it's actually the New England Patriots going up against 2068 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:25,760 Speaker 8: the Dallas Cowboys. Now, guys, the Cowboys are home and 2069 01:42:25,800 --> 01:42:28,880 Speaker 8: they're doing a whole inauguration or in the Ring of honor, 2070 01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,200 Speaker 8: I believe for Ezekiel Elliott or you know, it's his 2071 01:42:31,240 --> 01:42:34,080 Speaker 8: little homecoming even though he's with them last season. But 2072 01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:38,240 Speaker 8: Patriots not looking so good in Cowboys minus the Arizona 2073 01:42:38,280 --> 01:42:41,200 Speaker 8: thing have looked pretty good, but I'm not gonna lie 2074 01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,040 Speaker 8: to you. The earlier the last game had a pretty 2075 01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:45,879 Speaker 8: similar easy score of points. 2076 01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:47,679 Speaker 2: This one is kind of out of the water. 2077 01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 8: Dallas Cowboys are favored with six point favorites over the 2078 01:42:51,880 --> 01:42:54,920 Speaker 8: Patriots in Dallas. Now, Jason, since we're just talking with 2079 01:42:54,960 --> 01:42:57,080 Speaker 8: you last night, you go first here. Who do you 2080 01:42:57,120 --> 01:42:58,040 Speaker 8: think and who you taking? 2081 01:42:58,520 --> 01:43:00,800 Speaker 3: I'm taking Dallas and the big reason wise because they 2082 01:43:00,920 --> 01:43:03,800 Speaker 3: lost to Arizona last week. That was kind of a 2083 01:43:03,840 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 3: wake up call kind of game. It's not going to 2084 01:43:06,120 --> 01:43:09,320 Speaker 3: be as easy. They certainly missed digs, but that was 2085 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:12,600 Speaker 3: just a performance that was is kind of futured, honestly. 2086 01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:15,719 Speaker 3: And this Patriots team Mac Jones has been talking again 2087 01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:17,200 Speaker 3: this week, but not in a good way. 2088 01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:18,559 Speaker 1: That's a good. 2089 01:43:18,360 --> 01:43:21,120 Speaker 3: Defensive team and as long as Dak doesn't throw a 2090 01:43:21,120 --> 01:43:23,679 Speaker 3: couple of interceptions or they find a way to fumble 2091 01:43:23,680 --> 01:43:26,479 Speaker 3: the fumble this game away. I like Dallas to win 2092 01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:28,720 Speaker 3: this thing by double digits because I still don't think 2093 01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:32,559 Speaker 3: New England's good. The problem is their defense can can 2094 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:35,400 Speaker 3: cover some of their sins. I just don't think it'll 2095 01:43:35,439 --> 01:43:37,000 Speaker 3: be enough, and I think Dallas will be out to 2096 01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:38,360 Speaker 3: prove something after last week. 2097 01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:41,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not as high on Dallas as a lot 2098 01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:44,760 Speaker 2: of people, just because I do think when Dak's your quarterback, 2099 01:43:44,960 --> 01:43:47,840 Speaker 2: like we've got like seven year track record of of 2100 01:43:48,160 --> 01:43:50,680 Speaker 2: you know what you're ceiling is as a team. I 2101 01:43:50,680 --> 01:43:53,080 Speaker 2: also think it's a little bit overblown what happened last week. 2102 01:43:53,120 --> 01:43:56,880 Speaker 2: Three offensive offensive line starters were out. I think two 2103 01:43:56,920 --> 01:44:00,679 Speaker 2: of them are probably expected to be back on Sunday. 2104 01:44:01,240 --> 01:44:03,600 Speaker 2: And what Jason said, I just I don't buy the 2105 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:06,920 Speaker 2: New England Patriots in any way, shape or form. I 2106 01:44:06,920 --> 01:44:08,519 Speaker 2: don't know if it's a coaching thing. I don't know 2107 01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:11,840 Speaker 2: if it's a mac Jones thing. They're just not very 2108 01:44:11,840 --> 01:44:14,799 Speaker 2: good and you know, they don't have a good quarterback 2109 01:44:14,840 --> 01:44:17,959 Speaker 2: in a quarterback driven league, and just the talent, especially 2110 01:44:17,960 --> 01:44:20,840 Speaker 2: on the offensive side of the ball, is not there. 2111 01:44:20,880 --> 01:44:24,080 Speaker 2: So I think Dallas, especially at home, nice bounce backspot 2112 01:44:24,120 --> 01:44:27,160 Speaker 2: for them.

Europe is leading by a large margin 2192 01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:27,880 Speaker 5: against the US ten and a half to five and 2193 01:48:27,880 --> 01:48:29,360 Speaker 5: a half. Put it this way, it would take the 2194 01:48:29,439 --> 01:48:33,080 Speaker 5: largest comeback in Sunday history for the Americans to retain 2195 01:48:33,160 --> 01:48:38,320 Speaker 5: the trophy. And tomorrow MLB's regular season does end. The 2196 01:48:38,479 --> 01:48:42,960 Speaker 5: last five playoff spots were all clinched tonight, but still 2197 01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:45,800 Speaker 5: the AL West title will be decided tomorrow, and on 2198 01:48:45,840 --> 01:48:49,320 Speaker 5: that final day, Houston with a shot to win the 2199 01:48:49,360 --> 01:48:52,559 Speaker 5: AL West for the sixth time in seven years. They 2200 01:48:52,600 --> 01:48:56,880 Speaker 5: can get that if they win and Texas lose, because 2201 01:48:56,920 --> 01:49:00,720 Speaker 5: Texas is at ninety wins in Houston at eight at 2202 01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:04,559 Speaker 5: the moment, and USA Today says that MLB did decide 2203 01:49:04,600 --> 01:49:07,080 Speaker 5: tonight that the Marlins do not have to resume that 2204 01:49:07,200 --> 01:49:09,960 Speaker 5: suspended game from earlier this week against the Mets. They 2205 01:49:09,960 --> 01:49:12,799 Speaker 5: won't be playing on Monday to finish up, so tomorrow, 2206 01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:15,120 Speaker 5: if the Marlins win, they will be the five seed 2207 01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:17,679 Speaker 5: and play the Phillies in the playoffs. There's a chance 2208 01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,080 Speaker 5: they could dip down to the sixth seed, but they're in. 2209 01:49:20,120 --> 01:49:22,240 Speaker 5: The Marlins clinched a playoff earth with a win at 2210 01:49:22,240 --> 01:49:26,280 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh tonight, even though Miami has a run differential for 2211 01:49:26,320 --> 01:49:29,920 Speaker 5: the season at minus fifty three, which is going to 2212 01:49:29,960 --> 01:49:33,280 Speaker 5: be the new record barring a blowout tomorrow. The Padres, 2213 01:49:33,280 --> 01:49:37,080 Speaker 5: almost twenty years ago, had the MLB record set worst 2214 01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:40,559 Speaker 5: run deferential by a playoff team. They were at minus 2215 01:49:40,680 --> 01:49:42,439 Speaker 5: forty two for the season. 2216 01:49:42,479 --> 01:49:42,719 Speaker 6: Here. 2217 01:49:42,720 --> 01:49:45,360 Speaker 5: This Marlins team by early June had a record of 2218 01:49:45,439 --> 01:49:48,120 Speaker 5: just twenty nine and twenty eight, but then a great 2219 01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:51,120 Speaker 5: next month and the Marlins are in the playoffs. Texas 2220 01:49:51,160 --> 01:49:54,840 Speaker 5: in Houston each one to qualify, Arizona's in Toronto's back to. 2221 01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:57,800 Speaker 2: You, Thank you very much, Steve Seger, Fox Sports Radio, 2222 01:49:57,880 --> 01:50:00,400 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Saturday, Aeron Tors, Jason Martin Brook testing to 2223 01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:04,519 Speaker 2: live from the Tireck dot Com studios. Week five is here. 2224 01:50:04,520 --> 01:50:07,120 Speaker 2: Week four excuse me of the NFL is here? Pat 2225 01:50:07,160 --> 01:50:07,960 Speaker 2: give us the next game? 2226 01:50:08,240 --> 01:50:11,160 Speaker 8: All right, guys, we got Division matchup with the Washington 2227 01:50:11,160 --> 01:50:14,760 Speaker 8: Commanders at the Philadelphia Eagles. Gonna be a tight one, 2228 01:50:14,800 --> 01:50:17,920 Speaker 8: but score say otherwise and spread. Eagles are a nine 2229 01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:21,400 Speaker 8: and a half point favorite for this game. Aaron, let's 2230 01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:22,360 Speaker 8: go at you who he taking? 2231 01:50:22,960 --> 01:50:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting, you know, on these airwaves last week 2232 01:50:25,840 --> 01:50:28,519 Speaker 2: I made the argument, oh, could Washington be the team 2233 01:50:28,640 --> 01:50:30,759 Speaker 2: that you know, maybe it's just better than we think. 2234 01:50:31,439 --> 01:50:34,439 Speaker 2: Then they went out and got absolutely housed by What 2235 01:50:35,160 --> 01:50:36,120 Speaker 2: did you say something. 2236 01:50:35,960 --> 01:50:37,680 Speaker 1: Jason, No, I'm just saying they got hammered by. 2237 01:50:37,720 --> 01:50:41,680 Speaker 2: Yes, they got hammered by Buffalo. So I think this 2238 01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:44,600 Speaker 2: week we'll get a pretty good feel of was that 2239 01:50:44,640 --> 01:50:47,200 Speaker 2: a one off they had five turnovers, or are they 2240 01:50:47,320 --> 01:50:51,559 Speaker 2: just not good again. I tend to think Washington keeps 2241 01:50:51,560 --> 01:50:54,000 Speaker 2: this one close, Jason, just because of the fact that 2242 01:50:54,439 --> 01:50:57,080 Speaker 2: they're coming off a bad loss. The Eagles obviously played 2243 01:50:57,120 --> 01:50:59,679 Speaker 2: on Monday night late game. There they have to play 2244 01:50:59,680 --> 01:51:02,760 Speaker 2: a one o'clock Eastern time on Sunday. So give me 2245 01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:05,080 Speaker 2: Washington to keep it close. I do think Philly wins 2246 01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:06,200 Speaker 2: to improve. The four and NO. 2247 01:51:06,600 --> 01:51:12,000 Speaker 3: Division games often are closer, But because Philadelphia hasn't been 2248 01:51:12,040 --> 01:51:14,680 Speaker 3: playing well, I'm kind of waiting for that breakout performance 2249 01:51:14,720 --> 01:51:17,040 Speaker 3: from them. This is a tough ass to send Washington 2250 01:51:17,120 --> 01:51:21,280 Speaker 3: on the road to play Philadelphia in this circumstance. Remember 2251 01:51:21,760 --> 01:51:24,160 Speaker 3: we talk about Philadelphia like they've lost games. 2252 01:51:24,200 --> 01:51:26,080 Speaker 1: They haven't. They're still undefeated. 2253 01:51:27,680 --> 01:51:31,479 Speaker 3: I could see it being closer than nine, But for 2254 01:51:31,560 --> 01:51:34,240 Speaker 3: some reason, I just think this is this is the 2255 01:51:34,320 --> 01:51:37,920 Speaker 3: moment where Philadelphia actually shows a little bit more of 2256 01:51:37,920 --> 01:51:40,920 Speaker 3: what you anticipate from them. I think the one thing 2257 01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:44,559 Speaker 3: that could potentially turn it in your favor, though, is 2258 01:51:44,600 --> 01:51:47,720 Speaker 3: that Washington still does possess a pretty solid defense. If 2259 01:51:47,720 --> 01:51:50,200 Speaker 3: they can turn the ball over a couple of times 2260 01:51:50,280 --> 01:51:52,200 Speaker 3: make it a little bit difficult on Jay when hurts. 2261 01:51:52,240 --> 01:51:54,360 Speaker 3: If Chase Young can get a little bit of pressure, 2262 01:51:54,520 --> 01:51:57,000 Speaker 3: that could tighten it up. But I actually like Philadelphia 2263 01:51:57,040 --> 01:51:59,320 Speaker 3: to cover and win the sing by double digits at home. 2264 01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:00,840 Speaker 2: All right, boys. 2265 01:52:00,840 --> 01:52:03,479 Speaker 8: In the final one for our little thing going on 2266 01:52:03,560 --> 01:52:07,160 Speaker 8: right now, we got Baltimore Ravens versus the Cleveland Browns. 2267 01:52:07,160 --> 01:52:09,559 Speaker 8: They are at Cleveland to the division one. This one's 2268 01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:12,000 Speaker 8: a little tighter than the last one. Browns are two 2269 01:52:12,000 --> 01:52:14,559 Speaker 8: and a half pint favorites. Jason, who do you like 2270 01:52:14,600 --> 01:52:14,800 Speaker 8: for this? 2271 01:52:14,840 --> 01:52:15,000 Speaker 1: One? 2272 01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:15,160 Speaker 6: Man? 2273 01:52:15,680 --> 01:52:15,840 Speaker 1: Man? 2274 01:52:15,880 --> 01:52:17,840 Speaker 3: This is a This is a tough one that Baltimore's 2275 01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:21,120 Speaker 3: mad because they kind of got screwed last week. Now, 2276 01:52:21,120 --> 01:52:23,720 Speaker 3: they've benefited in the past and eventually it all warriors out. 2277 01:52:23,760 --> 01:52:26,000 Speaker 3: But there was a missed PI call that ended up 2278 01:52:26,240 --> 01:52:30,000 Speaker 3: costing them a game in overtime against the against the Colts, 2279 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:31,040 Speaker 3: so they're angry. 2280 01:52:31,320 --> 01:52:34,160 Speaker 1: That's first off. Second off, you've got the Browns. 2281 01:52:34,160 --> 01:52:37,240 Speaker 3: You've got a questionable Deshaun Watson with a little bit 2282 01:52:37,240 --> 01:52:39,400 Speaker 3: of an arm issue, and you've got the Njoku thing, 2283 01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:41,160 Speaker 3: which is crazy. Uh. 2284 01:52:41,320 --> 01:52:42,360 Speaker 1: And here's the other. 2285 01:52:42,240 --> 01:52:45,960 Speaker 3: Thing, Eric, The Browns might have the best defense in 2286 01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:48,880 Speaker 3: the league. If they don't, they have one of the 2287 01:52:48,920 --> 01:52:53,880 Speaker 3: top two. So they're real good. And this is another 2288 01:52:53,920 --> 01:52:56,759 Speaker 3: division game. This is gonna be a very physical game. 2289 01:52:57,439 --> 01:52:59,560 Speaker 3: This is gonna be one where Lamar is gonna be 2290 01:52:59,640 --> 01:53:03,880 Speaker 3: dare to make mistakes while they're trying to pressure him. 2291 01:53:04,400 --> 01:53:07,640 Speaker 3: Meaning the Browns defense. I like Baltimore because of what 2292 01:53:07,720 --> 01:53:09,680 Speaker 3: happened to them last week and just kind of the 2293 01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:12,880 Speaker 3: weird circumstances with Cleveland on the injury report. But this 2294 01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:17,599 Speaker 3: Brown's defense is really really good, like elite good. Like 2295 01:53:18,080 --> 01:53:19,880 Speaker 3: if they keep on doing this, they're going to be 2296 01:53:20,000 --> 01:53:21,960 Speaker 3: historic good in terms of stats. 2297 01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:25,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, if I had to take an actual bet, I 2298 01:53:25,160 --> 01:53:28,320 Speaker 2: would probably take that under. But yeah, I think for 2299 01:53:28,400 --> 01:53:31,519 Speaker 2: the reasons that you mentioned, I would have to lean 2300 01:53:31,840 --> 01:53:36,800 Speaker 2: Baltimore one obviously coming off of, you know, a three 2301 01:53:36,840 --> 01:53:39,720 Speaker 2: point loss to Indy, but then two Cleveland, I mean 2302 01:53:39,720 --> 01:53:42,799 Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson and then again just a very scary situation. 2303 01:53:42,880 --> 01:53:46,200 Speaker 2: It sounds like with David and Joku with some burns 2304 01:53:46,200 --> 01:53:50,320 Speaker 2: that occurred around the house. So I will take Baltimore 2305 01:53:50,360 --> 01:53:54,280 Speaker 2: to win that one. Baltimore, of course, and Baltimore and 2306 01:53:54,280 --> 01:53:56,599 Speaker 2: Cleveland both sitting at two and one as well as 2307 01:53:56,680 --> 01:53:59,599 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh in that division. Tell you what, Jason will come 2308 01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:04,200 Speaker 2: back wrap the show. We'll talk about the story that 2309 01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:05,120 Speaker 2: everybody is talking. 2310 01:54:05,120 --> 01:54:07,240 Speaker 3: Man, I'm so happy we've gotten through this whole show 2311 01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:08,799 Speaker 3: without talking about Taylor Swift. 2312 01:54:08,840 --> 01:54:11,920 Speaker 2: WHOA.

All right, before the break, Jason, 2328 01:55:09,240 --> 01:55:12,560 Speaker 2: I heard you mumble something into the mic, and I'm sorry, 2329 01:55:12,600 --> 01:55:16,080 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna do it. It's the biggest story in sport. 2330 01:55:16,160 --> 01:55:17,960 Speaker 2: It's the biggest story in pop culture. It's a biggest 2331 01:55:17,960 --> 01:55:22,720 Speaker 2: story everywhere. It is that we expect Taylor Swift to 2332 01:55:22,880 --> 01:55:25,839 Speaker 2: be in attendance tomorrow at the Meadowlands when the Jets 2333 01:55:25,840 --> 01:55:31,520 Speaker 2: are when the Jets play the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. 2334 01:55:32,200 --> 01:55:35,800 Speaker 2: And so I'm here to ask you. I mean, we 2335 01:55:35,880 --> 01:55:39,920 Speaker 2: are now coming on literally a week after Taylor Swift 2336 01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:45,640 Speaker 2: made her debut at Arrowhead Stadium, and I think at 2337 01:55:45,640 --> 01:55:48,000 Speaker 2: this point there's not really a take that hasn't been said. 2338 01:55:48,040 --> 01:55:51,560 Speaker 2: But listen, this is the biggest story in society right now, 2339 01:55:51,600 --> 01:55:56,440 Speaker 2: in American society. Let's go ahead, Jason take take your 2340 01:55:56,440 --> 01:55:58,200 Speaker 2: thirty seconds. By the way, I know you don't want 2341 01:55:58,200 --> 01:55:59,920 Speaker 2: to talk about it. I heard Jonas Knox in the 2342 01:56:00,080 --> 01:56:04,680 Speaker 2: break doing the same rant about you know, right because 2343 01:56:04,720 --> 01:56:07,560 Speaker 2: we have the toy story NFL game tomorrow said, Yep, 2344 01:56:07,600 --> 01:56:10,320 Speaker 2: there's no place for a toy story or Taylor Swift 2345 01:56:10,360 --> 01:56:12,560 Speaker 2: in the NFL. And it sounds like you and Jonas 2346 01:56:12,640 --> 01:56:15,000 Speaker 2: Knox drank from the same cup of angry kool aid 2347 01:56:15,080 --> 01:56:16,920 Speaker 2: this morning when you woke up. 2348 01:56:17,400 --> 01:56:18,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's more like, I. 2349 01:56:18,720 --> 01:56:21,280 Speaker 3: Get why you're doing Nickelodeon games and all this kind 2350 01:56:21,280 --> 01:56:23,720 Speaker 3: of stuff because you're trying to grow the league in 2351 01:56:23,760 --> 01:56:26,200 Speaker 3: the next generation of fans and all this, and truth 2352 01:56:26,200 --> 01:56:28,200 Speaker 3: of the matter is we're all going to continue to watch. 2353 01:56:28,320 --> 01:56:30,919 Speaker 1: And the other truth is the kids were gonna watch. 2354 01:56:30,680 --> 01:56:33,000 Speaker 3: Even if you didn't have a Nickelodeon game, Like the 2355 01:56:33,120 --> 01:56:36,040 Speaker 3: NFL is larger than that. To the Taylor Swift thing, 2356 01:56:38,040 --> 01:56:41,080 Speaker 3: I just don't care. I think that's it. But I 2357 01:56:41,560 --> 01:56:43,560 Speaker 3: recognize a lot of people do. Let me tell you 2358 01:56:43,600 --> 01:56:46,640 Speaker 3: something else. I don't care about the royal family. I 2359 01:56:46,680 --> 01:56:49,040 Speaker 3: don't care about any of the things that are happening 2360 01:56:49,400 --> 01:56:51,080 Speaker 3: within the royal family when there's. 2361 01:56:50,920 --> 01:56:55,120 Speaker 2: A But if Prince Harry left Megan Markele for Serena Williams, 2362 01:56:55,160 --> 01:56:56,960 Speaker 2: we would talk about it, though, you know what I'm saying. 2363 01:56:57,120 --> 01:56:59,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, my point just being I understand and I 2364 01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:02,920 Speaker 3: I am fine with certain things just not being for 2365 01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:06,760 Speaker 3: me that it just not When Jonas's point was that 2366 01:57:07,400 --> 01:57:09,240 Speaker 3: there's a you know, there's a lane for that, but 2367 01:57:09,280 --> 01:57:11,720 Speaker 3: the lane is not the NFL. I think really what 2368 01:57:11,840 --> 01:57:14,240 Speaker 3: Jonas was saying was there's a lane for that, and 2369 01:57:14,280 --> 01:57:16,840 Speaker 3: it's not me. It's not my lane, And I think 2370 01:57:16,880 --> 01:57:19,160 Speaker 3: that's what it is to me. I am totally fine 2371 01:57:20,200 --> 01:57:22,840 Speaker 3: with those that do you get down with some of 2372 01:57:22,840 --> 01:57:25,120 Speaker 3: this stuff, like when it comes to the coronation and 2373 01:57:25,160 --> 01:57:27,200 Speaker 3: all that stuff. I mean, my wife dressed up and 2374 01:57:27,400 --> 01:57:29,040 Speaker 3: hung out with a couple of her friends and they 2375 01:57:29,080 --> 01:57:32,320 Speaker 3: got up and hung out at five am. This is 2376 01:57:32,360 --> 01:57:37,680 Speaker 3: a physician, a mother, one of the smartest women I've 2377 01:57:37,720 --> 01:57:42,000 Speaker 3: ever met in my entire life, and she went crazy 2378 01:57:42,040 --> 01:57:43,680 Speaker 3: over this and have fun with it. So I'm not 2379 01:57:43,760 --> 01:57:46,320 Speaker 3: gonna poo poo that idea because I watched some dumb 2380 01:57:46,320 --> 01:57:48,760 Speaker 3: stuff too. I'm into some dumb stuff too. But when 2381 01:57:48,760 --> 01:57:50,440 Speaker 3: it comes to the Tamswift thing. The thing was so 2382 01:57:50,560 --> 01:57:55,440 Speaker 3: frustrating to me about this was how many cutaway shots 2383 01:57:55,480 --> 01:57:58,440 Speaker 3: we had, how many jokes needed to be made, and 2384 01:57:58,480 --> 01:58:01,920 Speaker 3: of course the game was so bad and so non 2385 01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:04,040 Speaker 3: competitive that we got. 2386 01:58:03,800 --> 01:58:05,280 Speaker 1: Even more talk about it. 2387 01:58:05,320 --> 01:58:08,800 Speaker 3: Like I felt for Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen because 2388 01:58:09,560 --> 01:58:11,760 Speaker 3: they didn't have anything else to talk about because the 2389 01:58:11,800 --> 01:58:14,640 Speaker 3: game was such a laugher at that point in time. 2390 01:58:15,080 --> 01:58:16,160 Speaker 1: My question would be this. 2391 01:58:16,640 --> 01:58:19,320 Speaker 3: The jersey sales for Travis Kelsey went up over four 2392 01:58:19,400 --> 01:58:23,480 Speaker 3: hundred percent in one week, bought by a bunch of 2393 01:58:23,520 --> 01:58:26,879 Speaker 3: Swifties to wear to the next concert. 2394 01:58:28,040 --> 01:58:29,400 Speaker 1: What happens to those. 2395 01:58:29,280 --> 01:58:34,600 Speaker 3: Jerseys when the inevitable go our separate ways comes? And look, 2396 01:58:34,640 --> 01:58:36,600 Speaker 3: I'm not rooting for that. I hope they're perfect for 2397 01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:38,640 Speaker 3: each other and they're good forever. But I also know 2398 01:58:38,680 --> 01:58:41,880 Speaker 3: that Taylor Swift's brand is breaking up and then turning 2399 01:58:41,920 --> 01:58:45,080 Speaker 3: in public and making albums about it. She's still talking 2400 01:58:45,120 --> 01:58:48,680 Speaker 3: about Jonas who. I don't mean Jonas Knox. I mean 2401 01:58:48,800 --> 01:58:52,120 Speaker 3: imagine if she missed Jojhs or whatever after a twenty 2402 01:58:52,160 --> 01:58:55,560 Speaker 3: seven second breakup call. So I mean this is her brand. 2403 01:58:56,320 --> 01:58:58,800 Speaker 3: What happens then? Is there gonna be a mass like 2404 01:58:59,040 --> 01:59:03,680 Speaker 3: Burning Man's style, Travis Kelcey burn the jerseys in effigy 2405 01:59:05,080 --> 01:59:07,920 Speaker 3: the next time that she plays after that point in time, 2406 01:59:07,960 --> 01:59:13,120 Speaker 3: because that's inevitably where this goes. All these Travis Kelcey fans, 2407 01:59:13,640 --> 01:59:18,800 Speaker 3: the new ones, they're not gonna be fans once this ends, 2408 01:59:18,840 --> 01:59:21,040 Speaker 3: and that's gonna be fascinating. It's just there's been a 2409 01:59:21,040 --> 01:59:24,640 Speaker 3: lot of jerseys bought for a weird reason, and I 2410 01:59:24,640 --> 01:59:28,200 Speaker 3: want to know if they're actually warned to concerts, meaning 2411 01:59:28,320 --> 01:59:31,080 Speaker 3: does this thing last long enough for that to happen for. 2412 01:59:31,040 --> 01:59:32,680 Speaker 2: Somebody who doesn't care? You had a lot of thoughts 2413 01:59:32,760 --> 01:59:36,640 Speaker 2: on that one. Jason, No listen. I think first of all, 2414 01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:39,360 Speaker 2: the one thing that I will not do is try 2415 01:59:39,400 --> 01:59:41,760 Speaker 2: to be funny or crack a joke or whatever, because 2416 01:59:41,800 --> 01:59:44,320 Speaker 2: I think everything that has been, everything that could be 2417 01:59:44,360 --> 01:59:48,720 Speaker 2: said on the situation has been. I also do think 2418 01:59:49,120 --> 01:59:51,200 Speaker 2: this is going to end exactly how you said. It's 2419 01:59:51,240 --> 01:59:53,280 Speaker 2: going to end in a breakup, because that's how all 2420 01:59:53,320 --> 01:59:55,840 Speaker 2: these things end, and there will probably be a song 2421 01:59:55,880 --> 01:59:58,360 Speaker 2: about it. It'll be a banger and Taylor Swift will 2422 01:59:58,360 --> 02:00:01,160 Speaker 2: make another billion dollars off of We Gotta Get out 2423 02:00:01,160 --> 02:00:01,320 Speaker 2: of Here. 2424 02:00:01,320 --> 02:00:01,440 Speaker 1: Though. 2425 02:00:01,440 --> 02:00:03,280 Speaker 2: I want to thank the crew Lorraina on the board, 2426 02:00:03,360 --> 02:00:06,480 Speaker 2: producer Pat Steve Disager, from my partner Jason Martin, I 2427 02:00:06,520 --> 02:00:10,280 Speaker 2: am Aaron Torres.
