Same thing for me this morning 19 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: with the over looks like the over is now on 20 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: the move too, So I was. I said I'd wait. 21 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: Fifty one turned into fifty two and a half of 22 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: a couple of shops it was time to fire. 23 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think if it gets the six and 24 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 2: a half, there would be I think there would be 25 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 2: people on Yeah, Notre Dame. So I think it'll settle 26 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 2: at seven. But I still like the users. All right, 27 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 2: but let's get to the three college football playoff games 28 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: on Saturday. Let's go in chronological order. 29 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: But perfectly is don't know. 30 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 3: We can finally play the game. 31 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: We'll start in Happy Valley between SMU and Penn State. 32 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,279 Speaker 2: Penn State is an eight and a half point favorite 33 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 2: of total chicked up a bit from open to fifty 34 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: dy four. A lot of die bars in State College 35 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: worth checking out. Give a shout out to Sower's Harvest 36 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 2: Cafe if you want to get a breakfast or lunch 37 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: and get their pretzels there there. It's going to be cold, 38 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: which you would think is advantage Penn State. You know 39 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: SMU obviously a team from Texas. This is a game 40 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: I keep going back and forth on. I've had a 41 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 2: bet on every bowl. Well that's my plan, even if 42 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: I have to bet like a player prop. I haven't 43 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: bet bet anything on this game yet. I think this. 44 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: You know where I'm struggling is number one. I you 45 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: know that's you. They don't really have an efficient rushing 46 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 2: at die for Sharks means a very good running back, 47 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 2: good out of the backfield, but the offensive line has 48 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: weaknesses specifically at center left tackle. The really just haven't 49 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 2: been able to adequately replace the starters from last year. 50 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: And I think that I don't know if SMU is 51 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 2: gonna have a ton of success running the ball, but 52 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: I do think that their back end of their defense, 53 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 2: if you can start throwing on them and loosen up 54 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: the defense, then that's when Smith might have some success 55 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 2: running the ball. We saw that with USC right USC 56 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: was able to loosen them up. We saw it with Oregon. 57 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: Oregon had success moving the ball on Penn State and 58 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 2: even Ohio State to some extent. But Ken Jennings get 59 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 2: enough protection, that is, you know, his legs are gonna 60 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: be important here to buy time because I am worried 61 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 2: about SMU's offensive line holding up. And then the SMU defense. 62 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: I do believe in their run defense, which is important 63 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: against Penn State because I mean, their schedule soft, and 64 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: we saw Clemson score a bunch of points on them 65 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: where you have but they have like I mean, there 66 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: these are power for guys that most of them are 67 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: like used to be at Miami. Got good safeties too, 68 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 2: can come down and defend in the against the run 69 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: as well, where you have to attack SMU as their 70 00:03:53,720 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 2: corners will Ken Aller and more specifically, Kennedy's receivers win 71 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: those matchups because that's Penn State's weakness on offense is. 72 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: And you got to throw in the fact that they 73 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 2: have an injury at right tackle, which is weaken their 74 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: offensive line, but so Ken Penn State's receivers on the 75 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: outside take advantage of SMU's vulnerable area on their defense. 76 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 2: My numbers say Penn State, but I've been lower on 77 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: SMU than the market all year. Haven't quite gotten to 78 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 2: a bet here, So curious to see what you're seeing 79 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: and thinking. 80 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: I want Penn State. I think it's Penn State all 81 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: the way. I think what's holding me back is why 82 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: fire on an eight and a half or a nine? Right? 83 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: Why when we're in this dead zone? Why touch it? 84 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: If I can get an eight, that's great, If not, 85 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: I don't mind playing tend leading up the kick. And 86 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: there's just so much that I see. You mentioned the 87 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: SEMU offensive line, and you know The thing is is 88 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: you want to compare lineyards to rushing success rate and 89 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: stuff rate, and that will tell you if the offensive 90 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: line is doing their job. They're not. Their rushing success 91 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: rate is better than their line yards, it's better than 92 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: their stuff rate, and that means that Burchard Smith is 93 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: doing all the work. I mean, if you watch the 94 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: highlight reels of him busting plays, there are defenders, especially 95 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: Clemson last week in the ACC Championship, where the defenders 96 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: are in the backfield and he has to juke all 97 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: over the place to get free. So you know, the 98 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: offensive line is you know, ninetieth in line yards, Smith 99 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: seventy one first down runs, twenty explosives. It's all high 100 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: light yards. It's all been him. So what you have 101 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: to do is look at the Penn State d a 102 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: fifty five percent success rate against inside zone but one 103 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: of the best EPA numbers in the nation. And this 104 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: I just cannot believe. The Nidney Lyons have allowed one 105 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: of every twenty inside zone attempts to go for an 106 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: explosive play. And if that's all Berchhard Smith is going 107 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: to run, they're going to have to pivot to another 108 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: run concept that they're not comfortable with. It's also worth 109 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: mentioning on this side of the ball, sm you just 110 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: can't play clean on offense. They're eighty third in offensive 111 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: momentum killer. That goes to a fact that they're one 112 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty first some penalties this season. They can't 113 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: get out of their own way on offense. When you 114 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: go to the other side of the ball, it looks 115 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: even better for Penn State. And I think I went 116 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: into this wormhole of is Tyler Warren going to be 117 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: a factor in this game? Clemson targeted SMU with a 118 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: tight end eight times five catches. Virginia hit the tight 119 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: end like uncharacteristically five targets five catches. Boston College targeted 120 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: two tight ends sixteen times for twelve catches. There's something 121 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 1: in the film that is driving teams to hit tight 122 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: ends against SMU. And you what are you going to 123 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: do with Tyler Warren. Nobody knows how to stop Tyler Warren. 124 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: So if cotal Nikki will get out of whatever was 125 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: going on with Ohio State and say, yeah, we need 126 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: to utilize Tyler Warren here, then let's get it going. 127 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: And then from a running perspective, you know, outside zone 128 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: is going to come up with Nick Singleton. We've talked 129 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: a billion times about how his yards after first contact 130 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: are increasing game by game, five point seven yards after 131 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: first contact against the Ducks in the Big Ten Championship. 132 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: And then finally, the one stat that I just can't 133 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: get over is Drew Aller ready for the NFL that 134 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: answers yes, and one hundred and thirteen dropbacks with pressure 135 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: this year, zero turnover worthy plays, and the strength of 136 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: this SMU defense has been a pass rush. So even 137 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: if you're getting to Drew Aler, he does not make mistakes. 138 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: He I mean, there's a reason. It's like somebody tweeted 139 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: at me, I think stuck, and they were like, is 140 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: he going to stay at Penn State? He's like the 141 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: fourth best odds to be the number one pick. There's 142 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: no freaking ways he's not going to the NFL. 143 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: So there is he's staying, He's staying on well. 144 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: And then finally SMU is forty eighth then creating contested catches. 145 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: I just don't I just don't see it, and Drew 146 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: Aller's fifteenth on target. I see so many advantages both 147 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: sides of the ball for Penn State. Here and I 148 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: think we'll go small game James against what a team 149 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: full of Miami transfers. How does Miami do when they 150 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: play in the Penn State. I'm sorry, when they play 151 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: in the pin Stripe Bowl doesn't usually go very well. 152 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that's a really great angle. But still 153 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: it's a it's a narrative that could be floating out there. 154 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: So Penn State all the way for me, I'm just 155 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: waiting for it to get out of a dead zone. 156 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: High lean Penn State as well. 157 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: So we've got a lot of work to do, and 158 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: we got tremendous challenges. 159 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: I'll probably be on them in some form or fashion. 160 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, Aler, I'm surprised because even if you don't 161 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 2: believe in the guy, he's like a will left Steve 162 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: got the combine, he has all the skills, can make 163 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 2: all the throws. He's gonna wow the scouts and get drafted. 164 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, he announced he's coming back. But that's all 165 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: you can make so much money. He's got guys like 166 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: Matier and Arnold making like three four million brock Perdy's made. 167 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: He's gonna make four million total over his first four 168 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 2: years in his contract. No granted, he was drafted late, 169 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: but different story. With some of the money you can make, Yeah, 170 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 2: that is worth mentioning Their backup, oh Pabula is in 171 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: the portal, just like SMU's backup Preston Stone and Ohio 172 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 2: State's back up Devin Brown. But those two will stay 173 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: with their team. Pabula will not. And they do use him, 174 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: so they use them in short yardage packages and other things. 175 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: So I'm sure he just didn't want over skin injury 176 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: and trying to go get his own bag somewhere else. 177 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: All right, let's go onto the second game for Eastern 178 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 2: on TNT. It's a great day of football. Got two 179 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 2: you got Braven Steelers mixed in and Chiefs Texans with 180 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 2: three college wable playoff games. Great day of football. Clemson 181 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 2: at Texas, Texas sitting. Let's see where this line is 182 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 2: at currently twelve point favorites, total fifty one and a half. 183 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 2: You're down in Austin. You want to go drink, just 184 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: go to West six, but Ucchi Sushi. If you want 185 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 2: some sushi, go to Ucci. I like my numbers, really 186 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: like Texas here. I think Texas blows them out. I 187 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 2: shouldn't say blows them out, but I think they. I 188 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 2: guess there'll be a blot one by two touchdowns or more. 189 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 2: I mean Clemson, if you look this year, there's just 190 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 2: the talent discrepancy between these two teams is massive, and 191 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 2: part of that is Clemson doesn't hit the portal. But 192 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 2: if you look when Clemson ever stepped up in class 193 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: this year, it didn't really go well and they had 194 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 2: a pretty soft schedule. I know that they beat SMU, 195 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 2: but they were outplayed in that game. I think even 196 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 2: though they did have a big lead, they lost to 197 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: Louisville at home, and they got blown out by Georgia 198 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 2: after you know, a close first half. 199 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: To win consistently is almost impossible. 200 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 4: It's really really, really, really really really hard to be consistent. 201 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna be able to run the 202 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 2: ball here, and film offf is dealing with some injuries, 203 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 2: and Texas d is kind of like built to stop 204 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 2: their offense. And I think Texas gonna be able to 205 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,319 Speaker 2: get the run game going, and that's going to set 206 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: up all the easy RPO passes, all the screens that 207 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 2: Sark will have the biggest difference in this game. For me, 208 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 2: when you're watching it is going to be the offensive lines. 209 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: The Texas offensive line, which should get Banks back at 210 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 2: left tackle, is probably arguably the best offensive line in 211 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: all of college football. Their offensive line is dominant. The 212 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: Clemson offensive line has issues. So I think that's going 213 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 2: to enable Texas to get the run game going eat 214 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: more easily. Excuse me. It's going to allow Texas to 215 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: get their run game going more easily than Clemson. And 216 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 2: it's going to mean that they have easier third downs. 217 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 2: They're not going to be under Yours isn't gonna be 218 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: under pressure as much, and maybe yours looks a little 219 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 2: healthier now dealing with that ankle injuries, had a couple 220 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 2: of weeks off, And will you see arch packages here? 221 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 2: That's very interesting because Texas's path is so easy. How 222 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: much do you show the arch packages? So I'm curios 223 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: to see, like, do you just unleash them right away 224 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 2: because they were in the collable playoff? Or do you 225 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: wait and say we have we're gonna have we're gonna 226 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 2: be double digit favorites and double and then we'll s 227 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 2: wait to the semis. But I think Archie, you know, 228 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 2: his running ability in that offense is a better fit overall. 229 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 2: What scares me is three areas the red zone for 230 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 2: Texas special teams and then viewers making a dumb throw 231 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: or two because it's not easy to cover basically, even 232 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 2: the one by fourteen or more, it's not easy to 233 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 2: do that. If you're settling for field goals, you give 234 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: the ball away once or twice on a dumb throw, 235 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 2: and then you're I have botched special teams place. It's 236 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 2: not easy to do. Dabo will play the which is 237 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 2: which is scary, and I respect it. Whole play is. 238 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 2: No one's given us a chance card. He's been good 239 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 2: as an underdog, but the talent differential in this game 240 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: I think is just too much. This Clempson team, look, 241 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: I'm happy they got here for my futures, but they 242 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 2: needed Miami to lose to Syracuse to get here, and 243 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: I just think they're going to be overmatched. Just as 244 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: long as Texas can score touchdowns on the red zone, 245 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 2: not mess up on special teams, and then just youers 246 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 2: doesn't make a boneut and throw. I think this is 247 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 2: Texas by fourteen plus. 248 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: Got that bord around. 249 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 2: Yep. 250 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: Let's have a conversation here. You can have all your 251 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 1: opinions that you want, right I don't know how old 252 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: you are, but let me tell you something. You're part 253 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: of the problem. It's people like you. The expectation is 254 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: greater than the appreciation, and that's the problem. My number 255 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: is fourteen and a half. I wanted Texas pretty bad. 256 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: It opened up one eleven, and I believe I was 257 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: tweeting out like that's gonna move. Then a deep dive 258 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: of this game and I started seeing things where Clemson 259 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: can potentially expose Texas. Let's start on the offensive side 260 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: of the ball, the rush of the tad to head. 261 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: I think we we're gonna have to discuss number here, 262 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: right because I mean, there's a twelve and a half 263 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: out there at one of the sharper books in the world. 264 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: I think the amount of public steam and parlay cards 265 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: on these three games for favorites is going to get 266 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: me the thirteen that I won on this game. But 267 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: we'll get there here in a minute. The rushing attack 268 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 1: for Clemson was horrific in the a SEC Championship. I'm 269 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: not even gonna go over the numbers. They were bad. 270 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,199 Speaker 1: MafA and clubneck completely neutralized. What saved the day was 271 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: the passing and freshman Bryant Westco finally busted out. I mean, 272 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: this is a guy that was up there in the 273 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: recruiting class with Ryan Williams, Jeremiah Smith. You know, he 274 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: busts out. He has eight catches on eleven targets, two tds. 275 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: Jake Brenningstool was just crazy good in money downs and 276 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: four catches on eight targets two tds. So Clemson, I 277 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: think we's so. 278 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 2: I do agree. It is arguably the key to this game, 279 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: because I don't think they're gona have much sucess running it. Club. 280 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: Nick just has to plean. He's been playing well this year. 281 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: It's got to have the game. 282 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 2: Of his life. He's got to use his legs when warranted, 283 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: and these receivers got to make plays downfield. He throws 284 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 2: a great deep ball. They got to hit some explosives 285 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 2: in Westco. Needs to be a big part of that club. 286 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: Nick's numbers have very much improved from a pressured pocket 287 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: turnover worthy play perspective twelve to five big time throw 288 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: turnover worthy play. He really has turned down the mistakes. 289 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: Texas is fifty seventh and creating contested catches, and I 290 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: gotta believe Klubnick's going right after Andrew mccouba right out 291 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: of the gate, Texas eighty third if you count total PBUs. 292 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: It is just to me, there's an avenue for brending 293 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: stool and Antonio Williams in the slot slants over the 294 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: middle to go right at the middle of that secondary. 295 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: That's what the formula was against SMU and it worked great, 296 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: and frankly, that opens up the running lanes later on. 297 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: It's kind of a reverse, so most teams want to 298 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: establish the run and then throw later. Clemson's kind of 299 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: doing the reverse and they had a lot of success 300 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: with it because they're terrible at running the ball right 301 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: now and SMU is a good rushdee. But not like this. 302 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: I mean, Texas numbers are elite almost everywhere except for 303 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: the fact they have issues in the red zone on 304 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: the other side of the ball. So I don't have 305 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence that Clemson is just going to 306 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: come out with their hair on fire and score points. 307 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: But there are avenues at certain parts of this Texas 308 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: defense where I think Klubnick is going to have some success. 309 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: The other side of the balls where I have real problems. 310 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: So Ewers has seventeen turn over worthy plays this season, 311 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: but twelve of them came against Origin and Texas A 312 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: and M, so if you kind of throw that out, 313 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: he's been pretty good. Clemson's thirty sixth overall and coverage 314 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: grading twenty third creating contested catches, so there's not going 315 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: to be a clean window there. But I think it's 316 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: important to note that Clemson runs a lot of Cover 317 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: one and a lot of Cover three, and Wers just 318 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: hasn't made a lot of mistakes since Cover three. But Man, 319 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: a single high safety has really jacked his negative play 320 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: rate up to twelve percent. And if Clemson's out there 321 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: showing that it could be problems. Now, the best option 322 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: on the ground Contravian Wisner Jaden Blue. They're going to 323 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: run outside zone. Think about what the strength of the 324 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: Clemson defense is. It's those edge rushers. So when you 325 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: look at Clemson against outside zone, they've been highly successful 326 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: against that. It drops to about forty eight percent against 327 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: power concepts Longhorns. The offensive line is only seventy ninth 328 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: in the line yards, so I think there will be 329 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: a little bit of resistance on the run. But where 330 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: Texas is going to get in trouble is in passing 331 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: downs with yours getting pressure and you ask, well, Clemson 332 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: can they do that? I mean they're ninetieth and tackles 333 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: for loss. There's some havoc in there. EDGETJ. Parker is 334 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: the X factor here fourth nationally and creating nineteen tackles 335 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: for loss. One of the best pass rushers out there. 336 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: And look at the tackle play. I know you mentioned 337 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: Calvin Banks is coming back. He only played seven stamps 338 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: against Texas A and M. He didn't play at all 339 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: against Georgia. How healthy is he? We're gonna find out 340 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: real fast. Trevor Gooseby, who filled in for him, him 341 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: and right tackle Cameron Williams by far the worst graded 342 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: run blockers and pass protectors of the season. Their two 343 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: games have been against Texas A and M and Georgia. 344 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: And now you're getting edge TJ. Parker, who's like graded 345 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: as the best rush edge in all of PFF, going 346 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: up against these two tackles. And by the way, he 347 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: doesn't play just one tackle against Calvin Banks. He switches 348 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: both sides, so yours is going to get pressure in 349 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: his face and that's going to cause some mistakes here, 350 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: especially against cover one with a single high safety. I 351 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: see a lot of advantages here. I mean they can 352 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: defend outside. 353 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: The problem is Clemson can't stop the run. But they're 354 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 2: run defense numbers. But look at the look at the 355 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: concepts soft schedule, go. 356 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: Outside zone at the edges, and that's not where you 357 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: want to attack Clemson. You have to go up the gut, 358 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: and maybe they do that. You mentioned arch Manning and 359 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: running those RPO packages. If I was Sark, I would 360 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: sit back and say, who do I have on deck? Oh, 361 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: the Oregon defense. I'm not showing a damn RPO arch 362 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: Manning play at all because that will destroy organ on 363 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: the ground, especially if there's none of it on tape. 364 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: So I agree. I think Sark may throw this in 365 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: third gear they get up twenty one, twenty four, whatever 366 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: they may throw in third gear or this Clemson defense 367 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: and TJ. Parker puts a lot of havoc on yours 368 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: and hangs around the entire game. So I'm taking Clemson 369 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: in this game. No reason for me to fire on 370 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: twelve twelve and a half. You said you like fourteen, 371 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: and I mean I agree with it from thirteen. I'll 372 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: go go, let's go on board at thirteen because I 373 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,959 Speaker 1: it's gonna get there. And I'm gonna take it. I'm 374 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: gonna take one shot on it. I'll probably take another 375 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,439 Speaker 1: shot on fourteen. But for you and me straight up 376 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: on the board, let's go thirteen. 377 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 2: Hook the baby. 378 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: Well. By the way, Dabbo got like some FCS kid 379 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: out of the portal that. 380 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 2: I saw that maybe he's changed his ways. All right, 381 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 2: let's move to the final College wall playoff game on 382 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: Saturday Saturday night, eight Eastern on ABC. Ohio State and 383 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 2: Tennessee and Columbus. This is a tough team right here. 384 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: We're proud to be from Ohio. 385 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 2: It's always been Ohio against. 386 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: The world, and it'll continue to be Ohio against the world. 387 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: Got a tough. 388 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 2: Team, Ohio State. Where we are, we're still holding it. 389 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 2: Seven's seven and a half still some juiced Tennessee minus one. 390 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: Fifteen looks like content consensus as of right now. By 391 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 2: the way, if you want to go to Columbus, a 392 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 2: couple of places to hit if you want pizza Andreatico's Delhi, 393 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 2: Kat Singers Delhi, and then you gotta go to Warrios 394 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 2: for sandwich is Chicken coutd Caesar. All right, Ohio State, Tennessee. 395 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: It's my numbers like the favorite. Again, my numbers like 396 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 2: the favorite all three games six and a half. What 397 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 2: are you at on Saturday? Ten point two? But I 398 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 2: hate Tennessee. I've hated Tennessee all year. I don't trust 399 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: this Tennessee offense. I think we're better run the ball 400 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,479 Speaker 2: a little bit. The Ohio State defensive line you can 401 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 2: push around a bit if you look at some of 402 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 2: their underlying metrics. But I mean, you look at what 403 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 2: this tenant, if this tenant, I don't trust Nico in 404 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 2: this passing offense. Their offensive line has issues in pass protection. 405 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 2: And I mean if you look at what Nico has 406 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 2: done on the road, and I don't even count that 407 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 2: Vandy games. I mean there was a home game. It 408 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 2: was a ninety percent tennis defense. At Georgia twenty to 409 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 2: thirty three for one to sixty. At Arkansas the bad 410 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 2: secondary seventeen to twenty nine for one to fifty eight, 411 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 2: and a loss at Oklahoma thirteen to twenty one for 412 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 2: one to ninety four. It hasn't been that any in 413 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 2: all years. Numbers have not been that impressive. There's no 414 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: explosiveness in this offense, and so I don't trust. I 415 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 2: think the Ohio State defense is going to dominate. 416 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 5: I might go. 417 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 2: Tennessee team total under to be honest, but because I'm 418 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 2: trying to figure out how I want to approach this, 419 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 2: because what where I was just in Cleveland over the 420 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: weekend talking to a ton of Ohio State fans who 421 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 2: were like, we talked, and we talked about this. We 422 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 2: think everyone was tight for that Michigan game. Well everyone's 423 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 2: tight now and I think it might have been more 424 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 2: beneficial for going on the road. This game, to me, 425 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 2: all comes down to the start. So I don't know 426 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 2: how to bet it, because if like Ohio State comes 427 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 2: out fast, then I'm gonna just get I'll get a 428 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 2: bad number if I try to them back Ohio State. 429 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 2: But I bet one of those I don't bet like 430 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 2: game product is that like Ohio State first half, end, 431 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 2: full game right combos. 432 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: I think what you're talking about. I think what you're 433 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: trying to say, and I agree with you, is whoever 434 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: shows domination in the first two series of the game, 435 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: you might as well just lie bet that team. 436 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, And well also do any team. I don't think 437 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 2: any team's gonna have success playing from behind in this game. 438 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 2: And because of the offensive line issues and because of 439 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 2: the both defensive lines and how much pressure I think 440 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 2: each defense can get and the Ohio State So my 441 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 2: initial thought also was under in this under forty seven. 442 00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 2: My only fear so Tennessee plays fast, but they're not 443 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: really that explosive. Ohio State's a snail, But my only 444 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: fear for Ohio State, who plays really slowly. I want 445 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 2: to communicate the quarterback blah blah blah. Is all the 446 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 2: comments with Chip Kelly and how bad the game plan 447 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: was against Michigan. Right, you had you were going up 448 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 2: against an elite defensive line. All you try to do 449 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 2: is run into walls. Right, where when did you have 450 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 2: success in the offense that game? The final drive of 451 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 2: the first half, they went hurry up because they had to, 452 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 2: and they threw it and they went down and scored 453 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 2: a touchdown, and then they didn't do it again. So 454 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 2: they said that they've gone through the tape with the 455 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 2: fine fine to come. So there's a chance. I think 456 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 2: Ohio State says we have to come out here and throw, 457 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: and we got to use tempo, which also can wear 458 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: down the defensive lines. By then you're gonna have two 459 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 2: teams using tempo. So that keeps me off the under 460 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 2: after digging in just fear of how the state might 461 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 2: approach this your state. 462 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: Laugh. You're making me laugh because you just saw Dtr 463 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: in person. It was the same thing at UCLA, Like 464 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: you know, run run, run, run, run, Well, can Dtr 465 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: get a pass out there to one of these tight 466 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: ends like he just chip Kelly refused to get away 467 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: from it sometimes stubborn yep. 468 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 2: And but I think after that, being the last game 469 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 2: and at home, I think you have to come out 470 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 2: with a completely different game plan because this is a 471 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 2: similar type of defense. Great defensive line, you can attack 472 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: their secondary. Now the question on the other side of 473 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 2: the ball, the question is ken the Ohio State offensive 474 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 2: line protect Will Howard because he is very shaky under pressure. 475 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 2: One big time throw six turnover where he plays, his 476 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 2: completion percentage drops from seventy eight to fifty two from 477 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: when kept clean to when under pressure. There's potential offensive 478 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 2: line changes coming. You might get Montgomery in there, you 479 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 2: might get Padella. How how does that play out? It's 480 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 2: had some time to work on it, but they maybe 481 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 2: maybe it can help. But there's a lot of variants there. 482 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 2: If you haven't had like live game action, building continuity, 483 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 2: and you're making changes for a college ball playoff game. 484 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 2: That's a huge storyline. But so my numbers like Ohio State. 485 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 2: I think Ohio State will cover if they start fast. 486 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 2: If they don't, I think they they might lose the 487 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 2: game outright if they go like three green outs and 488 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,919 Speaker 2: then get behind and then Howard has to throw and 489 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 2: this offensive line can't protect. Like that's how important I think, 490 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 2: Because then I think on the other on the other side, 491 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 2: I think if Io State jumps out, Nico will eventually 492 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 2: make a mistake and they'll get pressure on him. Like 493 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 2: the start of this game is so important, not only 494 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 2: just from how the game is going to play out 495 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 2: schematically and where these strengths and weaknesses of each respective 496 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 2: team are, but also just mentally for Ohio State and 497 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 2: that crowd. So yeah, numbers like Ohio State. Still trying 498 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 2: to figure out how I want to play this, but 499 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 2: definitely at seven I'll probably be on the Buckeyes in 500 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 2: some some form of fashion. What do you say? 501 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: It's funny. I wanted to wait for I wanted to 502 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: wait to talk to you before I started fire on this, 503 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: But earlier today I did take a first half under 504 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 1: twenty three because it's all the same sentiments that you have. 505 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: And now that I'm thinking about it with our over 506 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: at the action app Our Parlay express account, why not 507 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: put a wager on like first team scores leads first quarter, 508 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: second quarter, third quarter, or fourth quarter. I mean, I 509 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: don't know what that would pay. First team scores wins 510 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: the game, I don't know, but there's probs out there 511 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: like that. And I feel like because Hypel has a 512 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: certain offense that he does not go away from and 513 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: Kelly has a certain office that he does not go 514 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: away from. When it gets broken, it's broken, right. Tennessee 515 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 1: was broken against Arkansas. Now let me handicap this because 516 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: I do like Tennessee, but I like them for defensive reasons. 517 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: But on offense, it is going to be the Dylan 518 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 1: Samson Show. The Bolls are going to use inside zone 519 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 1: counter power whatever they need to. Each of them have 520 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 1: a very strong success rate. Power creates an explosive one 521 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: of every four attempts. So watch Dylan Samson against that 522 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: defensive line of Ohio State that can be chewed up 523 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: there what outside the top fifteen line yards, they're kind 524 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: of a mid success rate FBS wise defending all those concepts, 525 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: but power is really where they get gashed. And Buckeyes 526 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: are fifty third and broken tackles. I think that's important 527 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: because if Samson gets to the second level, look out 528 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: because some of these guys in the back end of 529 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: this Ohio State defense, they've they've kind of missed out 530 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: on some tackles. The Boles offensive line is ninth in 531 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: the line yards that should be able to push around 532 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: get Samson what he needs so he ca get about 533 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,479 Speaker 1: four yards after first contact. The one thing that's going 534 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: to get Tennessee to win this game is staying in 535 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: standard downs. If they get into passing downs, they're done. 536 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: Nico Iamla this season two point nine seconds to release, 537 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: like two point five is the average in college football. 538 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: What are we doing? Are we making a sandwich like 539 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: way too slow? That is a huge factor. With an 540 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: offensive line that's seventy fourth and pass blocking, Ohio State's 541 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: going to be all over that. If Tennessee can stay 542 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: in sandard. 543 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 2: To be sending pressure, yeah, especially on downs. 544 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: So that's that's the handicap on the Tennessee side. And 545 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: you just you think they're gonna have success and then 546 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: they're gonna get down in the red zone area and 547 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: we'll see what they can do. Because on the other 548 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: side of the ball, the offensive line issues for Ohio 549 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: State a real problem. I mean, you mentioned a lot 550 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: of the things. There's been a lot of shuffling, there's 551 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 1: been a lot of moving around. You know. Tennessee's advantage 552 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 1: here is absolutely insane. When you dive into the numbers, 553 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 1: especially at the edge positions. Everybody knows what James Pearce 554 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 1: has been able to do. He is ranked number one 555 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: in PFF and pass rush productivity. Nobody creates pressure like 556 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: James Pearce. But then when you go and look at 557 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: the rush their other edge, Joshua Joseph's dominates offensive tackles 558 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: graded number one at the edge position in PFF at 559 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: run defense. So which one you're gonna run? Have to 560 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: run at Pierce right, and you're gonna have to go 561 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: away from Pierce and passing. I mean, it's insane with 562 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: this Tennessee defensive line is and we talked about this 563 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: on a couple of pods. Tennessee secondary was wiped first string, 564 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: second string in the offseason, and they are top four. 565 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 1: Tim Banks has them top forty if Will Howard has 566 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: to pass with pressure, one big time throws, six turnover 567 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: worthy plays and eighty eight pressure drop backs this season, 568 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 1: Tennessee does not allow you to catch the ball twenty 569 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 1: fourth and creating contested catches. To me, the game screams defenses, 570 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: defenses dominating here. I don't expect explosive plays from Tennessee. 571 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: I don't expect them from Ohio State. Both defenses are 572 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 1: top twenty five and creating contested catches. Ohio States outside 573 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: zone is just going to go right into the defensive 574 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: edges of Tennessee. That's not going to work either. So 575 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: if you had to make a better you're in a pool. 576 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: I mean the Unders trickling down. I like that. The 577 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: worry is what stuck said Chip. Kelly says, well, we're 578 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: just going to have to throw with Will Howard. I 579 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: like Tennessee. It's seven and a half, I make it 580 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: six and a half. I like it lower. But it's 581 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: really a defensive play. So I agree with you. Do 582 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: we just take both team totals under? Do we take 583 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: full game under it? From a live betting perspective, everybody, 584 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: I think the team that scores first and shows domination 585 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: the first two series. They're absolutely going to win the 586 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 1: game and win every quarter. 587 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 2: Are you seven? You don't want to go ahead to head? 588 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 2: You eat seven and a half? Go on, I gave 589 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 2: you thirteen, but I know it's thirteen. Yeah, sure, Texas 590 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 2: with thirty, I give you thirteen with Texas a monk seven, right, 591 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: I'll take Ohio State. All right. Let's move on to 592 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 2: our two bowl games on Monday. Then we'll get to Tuesday. 593 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 2: Let's start with the Myrtle Beach Bowl between Coastal Carolina 594 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 2: and Utsa Meat. 595 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: Meat the Myrtle Beach Bowl. 596 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 2: This game is at eleven am Eastern on Monday. Is 597 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 2: that man? We got an early one? 598 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:26,360 Speaker 1: Yeah? 599 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 2: It is in Conway, South Carolina. On espn Utsa is 600 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 2: out to a ten point favorite. I'll hopefully listen to 601 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 2: the podcast and got an earlier number that we said 602 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 2: we liked. I still I wouldn't put bet it up 603 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 2: to ten no further. And that's just because who's out 604 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 2: for a Coastal By the way, if you go to Conway, 605 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 2: I've never been to Conway. Followers said go to Crooked o' 606 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: tavern or you know, I think it's like a half 607 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 2: hour from Myrtle Beach. You can just go to Myrtle 608 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 2: Beach and play a ship ton of mini golf. It's 609 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: the mini off capital of the world. So utsa ten 610 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 2: point favorite here. Let's go through who's out. Well first, 611 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 2: I'll start with you two sex that's easier. In the portal, 612 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: are starting d n Triplet. You know, one of their backs, Barnes, 613 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: one of their depth receivers, Wilson Joseph Evans, he declared 614 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 2: for the NFL Draft, the defensive lineman. I assume he's 615 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: going to be out. They're starting corner Denver Harris didn't 616 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 2: play in the finality, and neither did their other running back, 617 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 2: Robert Henry. Brandon Hige took all the snaps. They're starting 618 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 2: side Anaars Skirt Cordenius, who's pretty good. He was out 619 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 2: for the year, but he last played in Week nine. 620 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 2: That's pretty much a Trailer expects most of the roster 621 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 2: to be available, and even the players in the portal 622 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: are traveling with the team. So those players in the 623 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 2: portal I think might still play signals that they care 624 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 2: and I like trailer. He's a good coach. Coastal Carolina, 625 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 2: on the other hand, yes, they're close to home, so 626 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 2: they have the advantage there. But both of their quarterbacks 627 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: that they use this year, Noa. Kim and Eithan Vasco 628 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 2: are and the portal. They're only freshman behind those two. 629 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 2: Tim Beck said, the freshman Tad Hudson, he has zero 630 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 2: career snaps, will get the start. And they also have 631 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 2: Alex Walker. He then joked with the reporters that he's 632 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 2: going to take them all out for tryouts after the presser. 633 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: So I thought I read that as he wanted the 634 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: beat reporters to have try out. 635 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, he was going to see who among the 636 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 2: reporters can throw football the best in the portal. Also, 637 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 2: they're starting corner Matthew mcdoon, really good player. He's signed 638 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 2: with Cincinnati. I assume he's out. They're starting outside linebacker 639 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 2: Cleff Lubin, good player, he's signed with Auburn. I assume 640 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 2: he's out. They're starting tight end Kendall cars in the portal. 641 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 2: Not sure in his status. They have another cornerback in 642 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 2: the portal. Then they had a ton of injuries to 643 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 2: end the year. They're starting right tackle miss the finale. 644 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 2: They're starting left guard got injured in that game. Their 645 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 2: wide receiver Cam Right, and both starting linebackers missed the finale. 646 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 2: Actually they missed the final two games, and they're starting 647 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: safety was also hurt in the finale. AJ Williams his 648 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 2: team is a mess. It's a shell of itself. I 649 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 2: think UTSA, as long as they care, they're going to 650 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 2: roll here, and I think that they do. Coastal wants 651 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 2: to run to set up past explosives, but you can't 652 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 2: run on UTSA. And UTSA does give up past explosives. 653 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: But who's the quarterback here? You know, the freshman? Do 654 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 2: I trust him to do that here? 655 00:30:58,800 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 5: No? 656 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 2: You know they're past d is Coastals past these better 657 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 2: than the run d But they're missing a couple of 658 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 2: guys in the secondary, including their best corner. You can't 659 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 2: run on UTSA. But that Utsa offense it started rolling 660 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 2: at the end of the year. I really liked what 661 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: I saw. I think don't be able to this. Coastal 662 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 2: defense is bad a past run it's it's not great 663 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 2: against either. So I think Coastal is really overmatched here. 664 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 2: As long as UTSA cares, I think they'll win by 665 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 2: double digits. Would not go above ten. That's smaller about 666 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 2: now that the line is going up, but I like 667 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 2: meet meat meat. 668 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean we're both down on UTSA already, and 669 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: I think what we need to do as a service 670 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: for this podcast is direct people on what to do 671 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: with this number, which I don't think is going to 672 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: stop going. So do you want to play it live 673 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: and see if maybe Coastal gets a field goal and 674 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: maybe you get a better number? You can try. I 675 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: think the better thing to do is to give advice. 676 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: I think one of the things that you and I 677 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: have had such a hard time with this year is 678 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: that backup quarterbacks will come in throw a wrinkle into 679 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: the game and do something different, and then our bets 680 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: are like, you know, we handicapped this game perfect. Now 681 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: there's a new quarterback defense wasn't ready boom, our tickets 682 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: are burned. So I think what we need to do 683 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: is talk about the two quarterbacks, because I decided to 684 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: handicap this game by saying, if somebody thinks that they 685 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: want to get involved with Coastal Live, let's give them 686 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: some advice, all right. So if UTSA is not going 687 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,719 Speaker 1: to allow you to run and create explosives, then if 688 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: Alex Walker is going to be the quarterback for Coastal. 689 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: That's where UTSA should thrive because it's just a complete 690 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: mystery trying to find this kid, like you know, in 691 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: recruiting rankings anything. But I did find his high school 692 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: stats twenty four hundred passing yards, four hundred rushing yards 693 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: on the ground. He is mobile, he can move. If 694 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: it's Tad Hudson, there could be a little bit more 695 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: success for Coastal. Four star broad shoulders thick. He's been 696 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: labeled as a classic pocket passer by twenty four to 697 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: seven recruiting analysts, so there could be a little bit 698 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: more success with Tad Hudson. Who knows if he's accurate, 699 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: who knows if he can be in a pressured pocket. 700 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: But he is the one that passes where Alex Walker 701 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: is definitely the one that runs. UTSA is going to 702 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: run all day, absolutely run all day. I mean, cavoring Barnes. 703 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if he got tired or if he 704 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: just got injured, what was going on down the stretch, 705 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: But Robert Henry took over and just went crazy with 706 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: the ball. So you know, I don't I don't expect hurt. Yeah, 707 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: So I just you know, Coastal lost a lot in 708 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: the secondary. And when we talk about that, generally you 709 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: would think you could pass on them all day. But 710 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: you know what else that effects. That affects second level 711 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: tackling against a UTSA rush offense that's going to hit 712 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: you ten yards down the field. So I mean, if 713 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: you're saying you're stopping at ten, I guess yeah, the 714 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: advice is stop at ten. Maybe a coastal team total 715 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: under this is ugly heavily weighted on the on the 716 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: road runner side. 717 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 2: You can also use UTSA as a moneyline piece with 718 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 2: one of the favorites in the costwall playoff you like 719 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 2: on Saturday, I don't mind that either, if you like, 720 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: don't want to lay it. You're leading that way and 721 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 2: you want some action. All right, Let's move on to Monday, 722 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 2: two thirty Eastern, the famous Idaho Potato Bowl. 723 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: The famous Idahope Potato Bowl. Light as well, face it 724 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: your addictedness. 725 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 2: Between Fresno and Northern Illinois. A lot of news here. 726 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 2: Northern Illinois is a round a three point favorite total 727 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: sitting around forty. So the guys in the portal in 728 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 2: this game are all out on both sides. None of 729 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 2: them are on the depth chart. So what does that mean. 730 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 2: So Fresno starting quarterback out Mikey Keane. Both of their 731 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 2: starting wide receivers Jalen Moss, Raylan Sharp, they're out. There 732 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:31,240 Speaker 2: are two starting cornerbacks, Hamilton and Neil are out, as 733 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 2: is cam Lockridge, who declared for the NFL Draft. He 734 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 2: was heard at the end of the year. Both of 735 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: their starting defensive tackles Lightfoot and Holmes, and they're starting 736 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,479 Speaker 2: linebacker Phoenix Jackson. They're all out. 737 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 1: That's huge. Those both names you just mentioned are really 738 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: huge against the NIU rush offense. 739 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 2: Yes, the biggest. I mean, look you, it looks like 740 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,839 Speaker 2: they're still gonna have Magdalena, who's declared for the NFL Draft. 741 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 2: He's like their slock Eye. He will help a little bit, 742 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: but he also could sit out. They're starting a left 743 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 2: guard and miss the finalite. He is on the depth chart. 744 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 2: Now you at quarterback, you're probably you could see that 745 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 2: have an or designation. You can either see Josh Wood 746 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: or Jaden Mandall. Josh Wood is the runner. Jaden Mandaal 747 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 2: is more of the passer. And the thing is if 748 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 2: they decide to go with Wood and then run like RPO, 749 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: president can't run the ball. I mean this is a 750 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 2: I mean they're like, well, bottom ten rush success rate 751 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 2: outside the top on a rush EPA. And if you 752 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 2: look at NIU, NIU shut down every running quarterback they 753 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: face this year, including Notre Dame with Riley Leonard and 754 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 2: running quarterbacks has come. 755 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: Sixty percent success rate against inside zone with quarterbacks running it. 756 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: So an IU defense, yes. 757 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've done about nothing. Now if they want to 758 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,240 Speaker 2: throw it, you can't throw it in you and I's passed. 759 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,879 Speaker 2: He's been very good all year. And Presno's down. Two 760 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 2: of their starting wide receivers have four total catches on 761 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: the year for this game. That's how bad it is. 762 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,359 Speaker 2: And then on the other side, Northern Illinois is gonna 763 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 2: be without their starting quarterback Ethan Hampton. They're starting safety 764 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 2: Santanna Banner, who's good. They're starting wide receiver Trevon Rudolph. 765 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 2: He's really good. They get him the ball, hand it 766 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:08,959 Speaker 2: off to him, throw it to him. He's a return man. 767 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 2: They're starting d tackle Skyler Gil Howard. They're starting d 768 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 2: N Jelanie Williams. They're all out. Not as bad as 769 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 2: it is for Fresno. Josh Holst will get the start 770 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 2: at and then two guys who accepted invites who were 771 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 2: going to the NFL, Devonte O'Malley and JJ Lippi their 772 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 2: left guard and D tackle. They are on the depth charts. 773 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna play. Josh Holt is gonna get 774 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: just Josh Holst is gonna get the start under center. 775 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 2: He did play this year when Hampton got hurt. They 776 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 2: might use some Jalen Macon too. Whole stinks and he 777 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 2: has no one to really throw to, and there's no Rudolph. 778 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 2: But and I was just gonna come out of here 779 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 2: and run the ball like they're just gonna run. They're 780 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 2: just gonna run. Dive ball game, and Fresno is not 781 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: a great run day, and they're without both their D tackles. 782 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 2: They're starting a true freshman defensive tackle. So I think 783 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 2: and I he's gonna be able to move the ball 784 00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 2: on the ground, and I think they're well suited to 785 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 2: stop Presno. Whether they try to throw it with a 786 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 2: backup quarterback and a bunch of your receivers out, we're 787 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 2: trying to run it. They can't really run it, and 788 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 2: they'll be trying to run it with a quarterback, which 789 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 2: can be successful in these Bowl games as a surprise. 790 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: But and I U's done a great job against any 791 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 2: running quarterback they faced all year. So yeah, I mean 792 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,399 Speaker 2: there might be some barances in NIU four downs which 793 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 2: you get in these games, but Eileen, NIU, and man, 794 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 2: it's low for a Bowl. I like the under. I 795 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 2: can't this game has like seventeen to ten ridden all 796 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 2: over without flukes, you might get like you just might 797 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 2: get a bunch of four downs and trick plays whatever 798 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 2: that could work for you or against you. And it's 799 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 2: low for a Bowl. But I can't see Fresno moving 800 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 2: the ball. And I don't think NIU is gonna have 801 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: a ton of success hitting explosives and not gonna throw it. 802 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 2: It's gonna be running it. The clock's gonna be going, 803 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 2: and I think they're gonna be able to turn the 804 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 2: clock and move efficiently at tom and that's going to 805 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,439 Speaker 2: be the difference in the game. But this is under 806 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 2: an the NIU for me. 807 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: You know, before I hop into a couple of things 808 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: that you said, because I completely agree with you, I 809 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: wonder if the first half under is best in these situations, 810 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: because you go back to James Madison right a lot 811 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: of moving pieces on an offensive side, and they're trying 812 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: to figure out Chesney's system, and finally halftime adjustments were 813 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 1: made and then there's some continuity going on with the offense. 814 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: So I may pivot to a first half under, but 815 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 1: I agree under is the play all the way here. 816 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 1: Northern Illinois runs a lot of outside zone. No matter 817 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: who's healthy or who's opting out or who's there, it's 818 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: going to be sixty percent or more rushing attempt using 819 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: outside zone, and Fresno is missing a number of players 820 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: that would have helped defend that. Fresno's defense was best 821 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: this season against the past and limiting explosives, but you're 822 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: just you're not going to get that here out of 823 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 1: Northern Illinois eighty two pass attempts from Josh Holts, one 824 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: big time throw for turnover worthy plays has not been pretty. 825 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 1: I think it's interesting that Wood does have some designed 826 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 1: rushing experience, not just scrambles. He's got some rushing yards 827 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: in him, so we'll see what they run on the ground. 828 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: But all of that points to the under. Bye by far, 829 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: I think the one thing that's keeping me away from saying, yeah, 830 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: we should bet in n IU they're terrible in scoring 831 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: position one hundred and seventh in offensive. 832 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: Don't like that. I don't want to bet them the 833 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 2: win by margin, like yeah, yeah, and you know if 834 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 2: they get behind like three nothing, seven nothing, I think 835 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:22,879 Speaker 2: they're a good live. 836 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,439 Speaker 1: That neither team is inside the top fifty and rush 837 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 1: or pass epa and also Fresno's eighty six in offensive 838 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: finishing drive. So just I know it's a gross number. 839 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: I know it's low, but. 840 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 2: Under under okay, Yeah, we got our first two unders 841 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 2: on the put the bulls yesterday. Oh, by the way, 842 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 2: I've never been to Boise, follower, I reached out to 843 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 2: BJ or friend of the show. He didn't answer me, 844 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 2: too busy tweeting about Fresno uh flying the New England 845 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 2: Patriots team plane to uh Boise for the for the 846 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 2: Bowl game. But a friend mine st check out Double 847 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 2: Tap like bar food place. You have you been to Bois? 848 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: Yeah? But I went to a raft with my boys, 849 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: a class four rivers, so I did not, that's right, 850 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: not in a pub with a twelve year old. So 851 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: I wish I could have been at the time. 852 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: All right, let's move to Tuesday, the final Bowl. We'll 853 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 2: cover on this episode the Hawaii Bowl. 854 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 3: Mel Macca is a thing to say on a bride 855 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 3: the Wild Christmas Day. That's the island greeting that we 856 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 3: saund you from the land where palms. 857 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,399 Speaker 2: And this we ate Eastern on Christmas Eve. Nice little 858 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,760 Speaker 2: Christmas Eve tradition between South Florida and Santase State Santaesday 859 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 2: state three and a half point favorite total sixty and 860 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 2: a half. Do you want to go to Honolulu? A 861 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 2: couple of places daytime bar go to LULUs are there 862 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 2: for like when there's a bunch of games on or 863 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 2: like an NFL Sunday, go to uh Giovanni's Pastrami. All right, 864 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 2: So for this game, this sucks because Nicknash is out. Yeah, yeah, 865 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 2: to talk about Nick Nash, I will say my first 866 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 2: thought in this game was over because there's gonna be 867 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 2: a million possessions in this game. These two teams are fast. 868 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,799 Speaker 2: There's just gonna be quick possessions. Punts are explosives, So 869 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 2: what do you want that game for? An over sixty 870 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 2: and a half. In a bowl game, you need explosives, 871 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 2: Like if you're gonna go over the cash, you need explosive. 872 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,479 Speaker 2: So when I look San Jose State's Rundy's pretty good, 873 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 2: but you can throw on them. And there I should 874 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,439 Speaker 2: go over who's out for this game? So Nick Nash 875 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 2: is out in the portal, they're starting corner. Both of 876 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 2: their starting corners are in the portal. One of them 877 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 2: signed with USC, so I would imagine they're both out. 878 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 2: So this secondary is gonna be vulnerable. But USF can't 879 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:49,919 Speaker 2: really throw it with Bryce Archie. But can they? Will 880 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 2: they be able to because Santase State secondary is undermanned 881 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 2: and not that good. Does Byron Brown have a chance 882 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 2: to play? I don't know. I haven't If he plays, 883 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 2: I would like this. There are always yeah, I would 884 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,280 Speaker 2: like this over and I would like USF because USF 885 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 2: also they're really good against the run, but you can 886 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 2: throw on them. So and Shantasy State hits past explosives 887 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 2: and they go fast. They can't run the ball, so 888 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 2: they're not going to try to run it. They're just 889 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 2: going to throw it a million times. My question is 890 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 2: how much of a downngrid is it without Nash? Like 891 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 2: can they still be an effective passing offense? Because not 892 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 2: only are you missing Nash, the most productive receiver in 893 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 2: the country, you're missing all the attention that he drew right, 894 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 2: so all the other receivers would benefit from you know, 895 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,800 Speaker 2: towards the end of the year, people were double and 896 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 2: triple team again. Another thing to keep in mind is 897 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 2: potential win. It's in Honolulu, so we have to see 898 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 2: what the forecast is. 899 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: Like. 900 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 2: I think it's like right now, it's fifteen to twenty, 901 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:45,919 Speaker 2: you know, so if it's like ten to fifteen, there's 902 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 2: always gonna be some win in Honolu, like who cares, 903 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 2: But it ends up being like twenty to twenty five 904 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,240 Speaker 2: that could be impactful on downfield throws and field goals. 905 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 2: So I can't play Santa as they stay without Nash. 906 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 2: I lean over especially a Brown play, but need to 907 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 2: see whether as we get closer and if I need 908 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 2: more clarity on who's in and who's out. What are 909 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 2: you seeing here? 910 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, Also, they don't have cameras and the pylons here 911 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: at the Hawaii Bowl for all of you OG's out 912 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: there that remembers Zach Wilson doing a helicopter over the 913 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: goal line. We got screwed out of a touchdown there. 914 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: So I think I think the question for San Jose 915 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: State is do they go more twelve personnel with Jackson 916 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: Cannan and Jacob Stewart, you know, exclusively line up out 917 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: of the slot seventy nine combined targets. That seems to 918 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: be the next best passing option there. But then again, 919 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 1: do wide out Justin Lockhart and Trason Henry Hurry, do 920 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: they get attention with Nash out right? Do they get 921 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: double teams or do they get extra zone? Do they 922 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: get extra you know, I'm just wondering what does the 923 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: San Jose State offense look like when the entire season 924 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,959 Speaker 1: has been based on triple teaming Nick Nash right, who, 925 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: by the way, should. 926 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 2: It hard question to answer? 927 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:56,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I voted for Bulittan a cough ridiculous, But you know, 928 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: you look at you look at at Nick Nash was 929 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 1: thirteen point three, it's nineteen point six and both tight 930 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 1: ends about eight point three and seven. So you're looking 931 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: at short stuff to the tight ends. You're looking at 932 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,479 Speaker 1: Lockhart out wide USF. They're outside the top one hundred 933 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: defending pass explosives. So yes, I see points points to 934 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 1: points here for them. I'm just wondering how consistent the 935 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 1: offense is going to be without Nick Nash. I mean, 936 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 1: you can practice this all day. I'm pretty worried. 937 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 2: He needed to be consistent to get a total of 938 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:21,839 Speaker 2: sixteen and a half. 939 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, and I think it's going to come in 940 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: spurts and stuck it. It's again, it's like I talk 941 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: about these offenses that have been running one way the 942 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: entire season, Maybe they need an entire half to get 943 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: familiar with each other in live action before they come 944 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:34,239 Speaker 1: out in the second half. And I just keep going 945 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,919 Speaker 1: back to James Madison. It's just it's one of those things. 946 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: So when you look at Bryce Archie, you know an 947 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 1: even number of tds, I iNTS and big time throws 948 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: and turnover worthy plays, but the twenty two drops on 949 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 1: the season are like, that's a real problem for this 950 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 1: South Florida team. You know, Brown had nine drops by targets. 951 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: Bryce Archie had twenty two drops at thirty one. That 952 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: puts them just shy of a couple, shy of Georgia. 953 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 1: Who leads the nation and drops South Florida is all 954 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: rush EPA here bottom ten and offense momentum killer. They 955 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: cannot create methodicals. Do not expect drives with two plus 956 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: first downs out of South Florida, Joiner or right, I 957 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 1: mean eighteen rushing touchdowns. Joiners produced twice as many explosives 958 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: of right, So if you like props, i'd say Joiner, like, 959 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 1: you know, his longest run probably going to be over 960 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 1: forty yards. Lots of inside zone encounter coming out of 961 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 1: this South Florida team, you know, it's kind of a wash. 962 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 1: San Jose State's inside zone defense pretty respectable from a 963 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 1: success rate standpoint. I can't say that they've seen much 964 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: talent in the Mountain West, you know, and some of 965 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: the defenses they face, and San Jose State is seventy 966 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 1: seventh and defensive rush EPA one hundred and fifteenth and 967 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,479 Speaker 1: tackle grading. They are not tackling at the second level, 968 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 1: which is why stuck and I see a lot of explosives, 969 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: But is it going to come in spurts or is 970 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: it going to be consistent? And can San Jose State 971 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,360 Speaker 1: keep up with their parts? So I took South Florida 972 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,439 Speaker 1: plus three and a half. There are whispers of Brown 973 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: playing that is a huge advantage. I would expect that 974 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 1: to completely move this line. And then I think, from 975 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 1: a total perspective, I am going to play it live. 976 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:06,319 Speaker 1: I think I need a couple series for the new 977 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 1: offensive San Jose stay. They're familiar with each other and 978 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,439 Speaker 1: if we get dropped below the key number of fifty five, 979 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 1: time to go. 980 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 2: All right, that'll do it for us. We will have 981 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 2: a live show ten thirty em Eastern on Saturday. By 982 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 2: the way, summarize head to head. I'm on Texas and 983 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,879 Speaker 2: Ohio State. Colin is on. 984 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: Penn State. 985 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 2: Penn State, I lean that way, might get there, and 986 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 2: both like the NIU under if you see me at 987 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 2: USF that means I found out that Brown is going 988 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 2: to play. Colin played USF anyway, and then we both 989 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 2: like UTSA and. 990 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: We both made some form of unders on Tennessee and 991 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: Ohio State.
