Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, all right, very good.

24
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 4: Although he would be some sort of international student visiting

25
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 4: I'm guessing.

26
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, well he's Canadian.

27
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 4: No, I mean not from New York cor Maryland.

28
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: No, no, no, but it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

29
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 1: I mean and a Nickelback fan potentially, So there's that.

30
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 4: Okay, we were going well until.

31
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 3: We were going well until Nickelback, But that happens right now.

32
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech and Colorado tied twenty a piece, was seven

33
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 1: and a half to go in the fourth quarter. Colorado

34
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: got out to a seven to nothing lead in this game,

35
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 1: and Georgia Tech took control in the second quarter. But

36
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: it has been a back and forth battle. Caden Salter

37
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: tonight taking over four Schador Sanders twelve out of nineteen

38
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: four hundred and twenty one yards in a touchdown. He's

39
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: also run for thirty four yards in a score. He

40
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,199
Speaker 1: is going to be Look, I'll tell you this, He's

41
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: gonna be.

42
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: Really good like him.

43
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about Like we talked about Colorado last hour,

44
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: They're gonna be a six to eight win team. I

45
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: love the over for them. The schedule is not that

46
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: difficult as they get better. The schedule is more difficult

47
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: the end of the season, but that's when they're going

48
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: to be the better team. There'll be a six to

49
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: eight win team. But I'll tell you, Salter, coming out

50
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: of the transfer portal one of the most sought after

51
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: guys quarterback. I think the number one most sought after

52
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: quarterback in the portal this offseason, and I really thought

53
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: Syracuse was going to get him. I'm like, he's scheduled

54
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: to go, that's awesome, But I think he was scheduled

55
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: visit Syracuse after Colorado and.

56
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 3: Then oh, hey, guess what, I'm going to Colorado? Oh

57
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 3: all right, then he.

58
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 4: Mean something sometimes yeah, yeh yeah.

59
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 3: Yeah.

60
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: It's the old days in the NFL, where hey, my

61
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: free agent schedule is the Vikings on Monday, the Jets

62
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, the Browns on Wednesday, and it's like, we

63
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: don't want to let you out of the building. Oh yeah, sorry,

64
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: I'm signing.

65
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 4: That was when Doc Rivers was Clippers coach. Remember they

66
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 4: had a center visiting and they kind of blocked the doors.

67
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 3: Sign him.

68
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 4: He's not leaving to go visiting where else? It's done tonight.

69
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

70
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: It's the It's the everyday equivalent of listening through a

71
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: timeshare presentation when you go, hey, get a free weekend

72
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: in Barbados, everything paid for. You just have to listen

73
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: to a time Timeshare pitch for you know, a half

74
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: hour and what that's all You gotta do is sit

75
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: through a half hour.

76
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 4: There's no such thing as a time sharre presentation that

77
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 4: lacks half.

78
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: But then they have ton then they convince you to

79
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 1: try to buy a time share and spend.

80
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 3: That's what it's all about.

81
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 4: Like we get it's that type of thing.

82
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: You had free fruit loops and you're not gonna sit

83
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: here and buy some kind of time share for five

84
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: thousand dollars.

85
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 3: Come on, man, free fruit loops. You could have had them.

86
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 4: What is a maintenance fee? Can we go over that again?

87
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 3: But speaking of fruit loops, let's get to the Dallas Cowboys.

88
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: Uh so you like that? Huh? You like that?

89
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 4: Well the cuckoo part of the TV commercial for the

90
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 4: cereal So yeah, sure you're rolling.

91
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: The day after for the Dallas Cowboys and Micah Parsons

92
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: after the trade that still has shaken the NFL, and

93
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people like my side, woke

94
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: up today going people on the Dallas team. Yeah, oh,

95
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: I'd be really And that's be the first place we

96
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: go here is that we heard from both Brian Schottenheimer

97
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: today head coach of the Cowboys, and Micah Parsons, who

98
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: spoke for the first time since the train. Obviously, yesterday

99
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: belonged to Jerry Jones, because you know, if there's oxygen,

100
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: he's got to have it first, yes, yes, and then

101
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: when he's done and too tired, okay.

102
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 4: There might be something left over for you a lot.

103
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 3: Let Brian talk today. I'm just I gotten over.

104
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 4: I believe that was the general manager speaking. Whoever is

105
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 4: the Dallas owner, I think is probably going to hold

106
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 4: a separate news conference.

107
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 3: I think you're right. We're waiting for that. We're waiting

108
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: to hear from that.

109
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 1: But here's Brian Schottenheimer today talking about how for the

110
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: Cowboys after trading the best defensive player in the NFL

111
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: and getting back a defensive tackle who, as we said,

112
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: is a Pro bowler, but it is twenty nine, coming

113
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: off a bad year, and you know his.

114
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 3: Best days are clearly behind him.

115
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: This is Brian Schottenheimer telling everybody, Hey, the goals for

116
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys are still the same.

117
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 6: Nothing's changed. My goals haven't changed. Our team goals haven't changed.

118
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 6: I hit the players on that today after I talked about,

119
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 6: you know, just the tough couple of days, you know,

120
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 6: for all the guys, and it doesn't change, you know,

121
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 6: the standard is the standard.

122
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: So team goals haven't changed, nine or ten wins, sneak

123
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: into the playoffs, maybe on the strength of the offense,

124
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: and maybe's really good.

125
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 4: Strength of the defense. No, no, no, oh.

126
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: No, no, guys, guys, don't look everyone, We're gonna have

127
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: to win a shootout every week.

128
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 3: Okay.

129
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 4: I just came to pause mid sentence and stared directly

130
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 4: into one of the cameras, said, you saw this team

131
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 4: play defense last year, right, nothing's changed.

132
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: Nothing's changed for the goal. So that's so that's what

133
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: the goal. So we know because that was really the

134
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: goal going in and that's the goal.

135
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, the standard is the standard. So apparently the

136
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 4: standard is stann It's let's try not to make the

137
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: Super Bowl for say, thirty years. Let's do that. That's

138
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 4: the standard. We're doing well.

139
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: And keep that thirty year drought going. Right, Hey, we're

140
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: going to keep that going for all we know.

141
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 4: This might con true to that, but.

142
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: This is the thing, right.

143
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: He talked today as well about the conversation he had

144
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: with the team and like it's it's it's got to

145
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: be difficult for for Schottenheimer to sit back and say, Okay,

146
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: now I got to talk to the guys about this,

147
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: right because you know, it's something we didn't really get

148
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: into a lot last night. But but it's more the

149
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: day after is how the Cowboys players feel following this,

150
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: because this is basically the Cowboys saying, Okay, we're punting

151
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: on this season. You can sit here and say, well,

152
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: you know we got two draft picks and we got

153
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: a defensive to okay, you got a defenseive we got

154
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: to stop the run. Well, you know what it's like,

155
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones has decided to say that because clearly you

156
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: knew you have to stop the run for a long

157
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: time now.

158
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 3: You could have addressed stopping the run.

159
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 4: To the general manager, knock on the door.

160
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 3: All the meetings with the owners that you could have.

161
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: You know, you have the owners here once a week,

162
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 1: just knowing that, Okay, well you could have taken care

163
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: of that in free agency, in the draft. That's like

164
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: they're trying to come up with a reason to justify

165
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: this trade. Right, So the team knows you can't. You can't,

166
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: you can't feed them aligne. They know how bad it is.

167
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: And and Schottenheimer said today, you know, we had an

168
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: honest conversation and it got passionate, right, like it got heated,

169
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: but it was good.

170
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 3: It was positive going on.

171
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: And I don't know, you know, I get you know heat,

172
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: you know, it got passionate. I wonder if that's you know,

173
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: really the code for passionate is the Cowboys players going, hey.

174
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 3: Coach, what the blank are we doing?

175
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 7: Man?

176
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 3: What the blank?

177
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: We just traded the absolute biggest game changer, biggest defensive superstar.

178
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 3: In the NFL and his sixty sacks or whatever it is.

179
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 3: How the hell are we gonna keep playing? Man? What's

180
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 3: that's what you're sending to us?

181
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 4: That is exactly what passionate means. It means that we're

182
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: screaming over the phone for the what did he say,

183
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 4: twelve to fourteen players he managed to hit up on

184
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 4: the phone.

185
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean so.

186
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: And that's the thing is that that's a really hard

187
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: message to send because the players are smart, right, they

188
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: know to you know, a week before the regular season

189
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: that we're kneecapping the team, we're taking away our best

190
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: defensive player and getting back.

191
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 4: Send a Dan Campbell resterence. Did that go over everybody's head?

192
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 3: Did you just that would bite?

193
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 6: No?

194
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: I didn't say they were biting the knee couch. I

195
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: mean they were biting that would literally crushing. That's what

196
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: is just this is this is with the baton and

197
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: the big stick and like, yeah, just an kneecap you

198
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: right there, Like that's really what they're doing. And it's

199
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: it's a hard message to send this close to the season.

200
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: And it's not like you traded away Micah Parson. Okay,

201
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: well now we have money to go get guys. No,

202
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: you're you're you're on the hook with Clark now for

203
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: twenty million a year the next two years. Right, like,

204
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: where in what world does this make sense?

205
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,319
Speaker 3: But this is the Cowboys and there's.

206
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 4: Been a pro bowler. Let's not you know, under sell

207
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 4: what Kenny Clark has been coming out of UCLA, A

208
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 4: very good pro. It's just not the same position. And

209
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 4: you still have a bad defense potentially.

210
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: I mean that's the part of it that really is

211
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: going to play out over the course of the next

212
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: few months. Right like the shock of the Parsons trade,

213
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: I get it, But think about how bad it can

214
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 1: get in Dallas this year, which if you hate the Cowboys,

215
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: it's like, think about how good can get Dallas. But

216
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: just think about how bad this gets if the Cowboys

217
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: start getting boat race and their offense isn't enough to

218
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: keep them in games, and all of a sudden they're

219
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: just getting like after the first three weeks, like it

220
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: could it could be absolute mutiny on the on the Cowboys.

221
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 3: The fans have already revolted.

222
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure Micah Parsons is gonna get a standing ovation

223
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: when he gets to play back in Dallas this year.

224
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: Because everybody hates Jerry Jones. The Cowboys are the one

225
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: team where I think the fans hate their.

226
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 3: Own team more than they hate everybody else.

227
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: Right, Like, as much as mad as I get at

228
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: the Jets sometimes I still love the Jets more than you,

229
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 1: But I really think Cowboys fans hate.

230
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 3: Their team more than they hate the Philadelphia Eagles. Right now,

231
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: who do you hate most? Okay?

232
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: Eagles, Okay, Giants, Okay, I hate my team seventy five percent,

233
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: Eagles fifteen percent, Giants ten percent, Commanders ten percent.

234
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 3: Like that's how things are, That's how bad things are. Now.

235
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 3: You can imagine what that's gonna mean.

236
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: If the Cowboys start out poorly and look like you

237
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: look at their schedule, that's going to happen, and I

238
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: can't imagine what life is going to be like for

239
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones every game when knowing that I am punting

240
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: on the season and I failed in what I normally succeeded,

241
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: and that is the business aspect of signing players that

242
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: I want to give a lot of money to.

243
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: I failed on this.

244
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: That you think this is bad in Dallas, now just wait,

245
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: just wait until we get into October.

246
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 4: You reference October. The first game they have in October

247
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 4: is at the Jets. What will the record be after

248
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 4: those four Sundays in September? Because interestingly, and coink at Inkaly,

249
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 4: it's the Green Bay Packers at Dallas on a Sunday

250
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 4: night to end the month of September, if you can

251
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 4: believe that. So nobody's expecting to win at Philadelphia. Correct,

252
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 4: That's the NFL season opener on Thursday night. They've got

253
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 4: the Giants and Bears in between and then hosting Green Bay,

254
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 4: and they're already saying that. Of course, the new guy

255
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 4: on the Dallas side is going to be playing the

256
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 4: very first game, so I assume he'll be playing against

257
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 4: his own team, and we'll see Parsons in Dallas on

258
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 4: a Sunday night. I'm guessing that'll get a rating point

259
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 4: or two.

260
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 3: I think so.

261
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: Well, look, Dallas has become even more and this is

262
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: the one thing where Jerry Jones can pat himself on

263
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: the back and say, we're even more of a must

264
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: see now because of this trade. Because of this trade

265
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: is now there's so many people who want to see

266
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: the Cowboys fail, who want to watch the Cowboy not

267
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 1: really hate watch the Cowboys, but watch them and hope

268
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: they lose and root against them because boy, look at

269
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones. I can't stand Jerry Jones. Whether you're a

270
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: Cowboy fan or you're outside of it, you're laughing. But

271
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, the Cowboys they carry themselves like they're

272
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 1: the greatest team in the world, and here they are.

273
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: They're gonna be terrible, and interest level in them is

274
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: even higher than it was because think about it, if

275
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: they didn't make this trade, right, just think about they

276
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: don't make the trade.

277
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys, Okay.

278
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 1: They're normally a really big story, right because they're the Cowboys,

279
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: just like the Steelers every year or a story because they're

280
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: the Steelers. Then you get the upper echelon of the

281
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 1: NFL from year to year. The last years, the Chiefs

282
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: have owned that. Now the Eagles are up on that,

283
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: the Niners, but every year it's the Cowboys, but epssell Boys.

284
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: It was just kind of a generic interest in the

285
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys year. Now the Cowboys have become story number one,

286
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: right ahead of everything.

287
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 3: Else in the NFL.

288
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: The Cowboys and what they're doing following this Micah Parsons

289
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: trade has become story number one. It's leapt ahead of

290
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: if Shador Sanders winds up starting for the Browns. It's

291
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: lept ahead of if Caleb Williams starts out four and

292
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: oh for the Bears and he throws twelve touchdowns in

293
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: his first three games. And because I have him in Dynastay,

294
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: I hope so like it's jumped past that. Like the Cowboys.

295
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: Now the interest level has gone from a garden variety

296
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: great level of interest to now their number. They're the

297
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 1: number one story in the NFL. So Jerry Jones, at

298
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: least I know, is patting himself on the back for that.

299
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 4: And just to you know, you brought up other teams

300
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 4: that certainly have national interest a national fan base, but

301
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 4: the Dallas Cowboys not only have their local Dallas radio

302
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 4: station and all the affiliates in their network around Dallas, Texas, Oklahoma.

303
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 4: They have a separate Compass Media Networks has a separate

304
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys radio network with a completely separate boost for

305
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 4: a national game. So there's another fifty to seventy radio

306
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 4: stations carrying Cowboys there, not with Brad Sham who's done

307
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 4: Cowboys for a year with completely separate crew. You look

308
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 4: at the masthead of the Dallas Cowboys media notes where

309
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 4: they say who's covering this game, and it says what

310
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 4: channel or what network is carrying and the announcers, and

311
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 4: then it says and it's this Compass network, and it's

312
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 4: this local Dallas network, and it's Telemundo and it's a

313
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 4: secondary and it's preseason, so we got two other TV.

314
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 2: There's not enough space.

315
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 4: On the page for all the live coverage of TV

316
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 4: and radio that goes on for this team, a team

317
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 4: that has not won the Super Bowl in thirty years.

318
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 4: To say there is still interest in the Cowboys is

319
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 4: an understatement.

320
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 1: Now when it comes to Micah Parsons, Okay, this is

321
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: his big statement from today talking about the trade and

322
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: what he hopes happens with the Green Bay Packers.

323
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 3: Here's Michaeh Parsons.

324
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 8: I looked on that wall and I saw Brett fav

325
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 8: I saw Reggie, I saw all those legends, and I

326
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 8: was like, I gotta be there.

327
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 3: And you know, you go and you.

328
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 8: Go near the draft room and they're all having their

329
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 8: hands up and they having that moment. I'm looking for

330
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 8: that moment, and you know, I'm going to take advantage

331
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 8: of this moment and maximize it to reach that moment.

332
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: You know, this is the one part of the trade

333
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: where because it's the coverage has been widely negative. Cowvin obviously,

334
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: so right, I can't make it up how bad the

335
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: situation was. But for Micah Parsons, Now take take a

336
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: look at it from here. This is the Micah Parsons

337
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: question that I have. He's focused on wanting out for

338
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: so long, and he said today he didn't have a

339
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: say in the destination. Now, the Packers is a great

340
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: landing spot, obviously, and here he is. Obviously he's verse

341
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: in the history of the Packers and understands what the

342
00:14:58,440 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: legacy of the Packers is.

343
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 3: And that's great. He's gonna spend the majority.

344
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: Of his prime, the rest of his prime until he's

345
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: thirty with the Green Bay Packers.

346
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 4: So he's only played four years in the league at

347
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 4: this point.

348
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, so he's got You know, usually you'll

349
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: get linebackers like him having about a ten year NFL

350
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: career right before you start to slow down. Maybe guys,

351
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: maybe he's one of those guys like Miles Garrett that

352
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: will get into his thirties and still be really good

353
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: for the first couple of years. But you want to think, okay,

354
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: first half of your prime? Is any getting in the

355
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: back of the back half for your prime? All of

356
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: a sudden, he gets the trade, he gets what he wants.

357
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: But sometimes you get to the point where we have

358
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: to go, well, now what, right, Like he didn't have

359
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: a say with the Green Bay Packers. He's got to

360
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: make it work with the Packers, right, he said, I

361
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: did have a say. It did go to his preferred destination.

362
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: I want to play in this system because I'm gonna

363
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: be great here. Obviously Micah Parsons is good enough and

364
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: disruptive enough that he can work in any system. But

365
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: still it was basically, you're getting traded here, so you

366
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: have no saying where you're gonna go spend the next

367
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: few years. You've already agreed to a big contract extension.

368
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: You wanted to get paid.

369
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 3: You got that. Now you have to make it work.

370
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: And what if it doesn't work as well as it

371
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: did with the Cowboys. I mean, you don't think it

372
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: will because obviously he's that kind of a player.

373
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: He's kind of a plug and play guy.

374
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: But now you've gone from I want to be a cowboy,

375
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: want to be a cowboy, Now I want to get out,

376
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, here's your next four or

377
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: five years, and here's your money and good luck. Now

378
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: you have to make the best of it and really

379
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: enjoy it. And sometimes that goes great and sometimes it doesn't.

380
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: So there is a bit of a dark side from

381
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: Michaeh Parsons where suddenly you get thrown to a destination

382
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: that you didn't choose, that you're locked in there for

383
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: the next few years.

384
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 3: You didn't have a free agency.

385
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: Tour, you didn't make your time, you didn't go and

386
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: get to go talk to teams and talk to coaches

387
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: and everything else. Now here you are now in Green Bay.

388
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: So now it better work for both sides. So there

389
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: is a bit of a dark side for it to

390
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons, when you get thrown into a situation that

391
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: is just not of your making it all.

392
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 4: Sorry, Mike, you did get what he wanted, the trade

393
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 4: be the contract, So two out of three ain't bad.

394
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 4: And also, as we okay find he's going to green

395
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 4: Bay could be a playoff team. As you can recall,

396
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 4: green Bay was a playoff team at Dallas a couple

397
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 4: of years ago, back when Dallas had a great home wrecker,

398
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 4: back when Dallas had a better defense than the Packers

399
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 4: won that and ran up and down against the Cowboys

400
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 4: defense as I recall that day. But the calling card

401
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 4: has been the sacks and all that comes with that.

402
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 4: In his four year career in the league, Parsons can

403
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 4: not only pile up the sacks, he can tip the passes,

404
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 4: he can force the fumbles. He's not going to be

405
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 4: piling up tackles total. This is an edge rusher, not

406
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 4: a middle linebacker, so he doesn't do everything out there,

407
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 4: but he does so much. He excels so much just

408
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 4: in the sack department you mentioned it. It's in the

409
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 4: four years, it's over fifty sacks. His lowest year for

410
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 4: a sack total was last year and he still had

411
00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 4: twelve in only thirteen games played. It's quite Yeah, it's

412
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 4: quite a contract, but it's quite a player acquired by

413
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 4: Green Bay as well.

414
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 1: Exit how about a fresco Jason Smith Steve de seger

415
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: in for Mike Harmon.

416
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 3: It's okay, some bit of a dark side for the Green.

417
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: Bay Packers and a bit of a twisty good news

418
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys because more people need way more people

419
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: will really care about them passionately this year, even you know,

420
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: just because they screwed up so badly. All right, hey,

421
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 1: you gotta hey, attention is great, right uh? Coming up next,

422
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:32,719
Speaker 1: we will ask the scariest question about the college football season,

423
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: and it should scare everybody.

Speaker 1: so where Labor Day weekend belongs to college football. Right

463
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,959

465
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 1: one week of the year where it's like, boy, we

466
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: talk about college football going into the weekend, we talk

467
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,840

470
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 1: about Dave Portnoy being banned from the from Ohio State tomorrow,

471
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: and it's a big event the last game day that

472
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: Lee Corso is going to appear on making his final

473
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,959
Speaker 1: appearance on college game day. An incredible career. There's been

474
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: a thirty for thirty on the guy. You know he was,

475
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: He's he's ninety years old now, he has been with

476
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: ESPN for so long, putting on the head gear has

477
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: become a cottage industry, and no matter how many times

478
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: you see it, it's still so much fun to see

479
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: him put the help, put the logo or put the

480
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: head gear ont of.

481
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 3: The team he's picking. And it's said, no matter why

482
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: he's picking the home team, he's not. It's just it's

483
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 3: just an awesome thing.

484
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 1: And there's a story I've wanted to tell about him

485
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: for a long time, because you know, I worked with

486
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: him a little bit at ESPN, and you know, I

487
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: don't know that he would remember me, you know, working

488
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: because you know college football what he did. But I

489
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: worked more with Craig James, and Craig James was on

490
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,360
Speaker 1: the show and Chris Fowler, you know who was there

491
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: when when he worked with Lee so long, and but

492
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: Lee Horso is one of those guys where when he

493
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: walks into a room you just immediately feel better. He

494
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: walks into it like when he walk in for a

495
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 1: production meeting, or he just comes in and he is

496
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: happy to work. He's happy to be there, he's happy

497
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: to see people like he was that guy, like one

498
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: of those pig And it's not like he always came

499
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: in and he was always you know, would take over

500
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: a room, but just one of those people that when

501
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: he was there hanging around, you see him came in

502
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: the the the vibe of the room just went way up,

503
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: like he was. He was that kind of guy. And

504
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: from from what I gather, the last you know, twenty

505
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: years or so, you know, at ESPN, he's continued to

506
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: be that guy.

507
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 3: And it's you know, it's.

508
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: It's something because you know, Lee putting on the head

509
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: gears become a thing with college football for you know,

510
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: for the past thirty some odd years.

511
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 4: And he has said he wants to be remembered as

512
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 4: a guy that put a smile on your face. So

513
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 4: that's good to hear. It was just off the camera,

514
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 4: not just on the camera. And I'm glad he gets

515
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 4: his moment, so to speak. It is time to retire here.

516
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,679
Speaker 4: And I'm shocked he's had this many years on the

517
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 4: air after the stroke that he had. Yeah, not just

518
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 4: this many years total. I'm glad he gets his moment.

519
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: Now, I've never told this story. I've been way eating

520
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: for the right time to tell this story. Clearly now

521
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: with Lee Corso retiring tomorrow, this is one of my

522
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: favorite stories of all time. So back when I'm a

523
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 1: production assistant at ESPN in the early to mid nineties's

524
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 1: working one night, or I work in Saturday afternoon, sorry,

525
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon, college football Saturday. You can imagine how busy

526
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,199
Speaker 1: at college football Saturday is at ESPN, where it's one

527
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: hundred games and you're trying to edit highlights and throwing

528
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: on It's just remember that scene an airplane when Jilly

529
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: Haggerty says and we're also out of coffee and the

530
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: whole plane to like, that's what a college football Saturday

531
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 1: is like at ed ESPN. So Lee Corso is doing

532
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: Game Day, and this is when they're on all day, Right,

533
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 1: they do the game Day in the morning, and they're

534
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: on in the middle and they do the cut ins,

00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, like like like seven o'clock, they're

540
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: allatting ready to sign off the air, the production stand

541
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: and this is just a random option. October they decide

542
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: to play a joke on Lee Corso and Craig James.

543
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: They decide to play and Fowler is in on it.

544
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: Fowler's in on it. They decide, the production room decides

545
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: to play a joke on and they go, okay, they

546
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: thought they were done. They go, wait, we got one

547
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: more segment. We have to come back. We have to

548
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: do coming off whatever game it was. We had to

549
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 1: do one more segment. Guys, we're gonna do the same

550
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 1: thing we just did here. We just have to finish.

551
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 3: Chris. When you get done, now you throw it back

552
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 3: whatever it is. We have one more segment to go. Meanwhile,

553
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 3: they were done, right, they were done, but they said

554
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 3: we have.

555
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: To do one more segment. Lee and Craig are like, yeah, fine, whatever.

556
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: They ordered the same thing, same rundown. All the changes

557
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: are for Chris Fowler, right, because he's the guy in

558
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: on it. So they start the segment and this is

559
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: basically just a five minute recap of the big games

560
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: of the day. Here's highlights, a couple of quick comments

561
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: from the from the analysts, and they finish and they

562
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: go back, you know, and Chris Fallers says, okay, now

563
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 1: we go back to Sports Center wherever you had to

564
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: throw it to at ESPN. So they started, and they

565
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 1: deliberately start making mistakes the entire five minutes the wrong camera,

566
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: Like Chris Fowler starts talking the wrong the camera is on,

567
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: Craig James, go, Craig, the camera's on you turn around,

568
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 1: and Craig is standing around not knowing what's happening, and

569
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: Chris is talking and and then Chris makes a mistake

570
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: with something and he says, what about this game? And

571
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 1: it was the wrong game, and they were looking at

572
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: him like he doesn't play Charlie Ward doesn't play quarterback

573
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 1: for Florida. It's Florida State like and this whole thing,

574
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: and you can see Craig and Lee are like, what

575
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: is going on? And then the camera starts going. The

576
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: camera goes to Lee when Craig is talking, and the

577
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: camera goes to Craig when Lee is talking, and everybody's

578
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: watching and laughing their asses off, and Craig James.

579
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 3: And Lee cours are like, what is what is? What

580
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 3: is going on? Right?

581
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: And Fowlers starts saying, all right, guys, sorry, we're having

582
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 1: technical stuff here. We're gonna get our act together soon.

583
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 1: Then the camera just shows like Lee Corso's hands folded

584
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: together and the kid the producers like, Leelee, unclench your hands.

585
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: The cameras on your hands, and he unclenches his hands

586
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 1: and puts them on the table right like, and no

587
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 1: one it's it's And it gets to the end and

588
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: the last thing they do is is Craig James says

589
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: his final bit and the camera stays on him and

590
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: Chris Fowler starts talking and Craig James looks at the

591
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: camera and just shakes his head like he's he's at

592
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: it at this point, right. So then Fowler at the

593
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: very end, he goes, Okay, you know what, this is ridiculous,

594
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,119
Speaker 1: this is all you know, We're done, and he starts

595
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: taking his jacket off and taking micro ROI goes, let's

596
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: go back to the studio and everything, and Lee's Lee

597
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 1: goes Chris. Chris like because Fowler's getting up away from

598
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 1: the front, off the table and walking away and we're like,

599
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: what is going on?

600
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 3: And so they think it's.

601
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 1: Over, and then the producer goes, Lee, Lee, the camera's

602
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: on you stay on camera.

603
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 3: We can't go we can't go to yeah, stay on camera,

604
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 3: and Lee just they go Lie, sit.

605
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: Up, and Lee just sits up and looks at the

606
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 1: camera and smiles, and he's like an uncomfortable like five

607
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,439
Speaker 1: or six seconds of Lee just smiling at the camera

608
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: because because Fowler's gone and and and Craig James is

609
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 1: it doesn't know what's going on. And they finally stop

610
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: and they're all laughing hysterically, and Craig James goes, what

611
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 1: was that? And they let him in on the joke.

612
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: They let him all in on the joke, right okay,

613
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 1: And this is the best part the Limona joke. And

614
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: Lee Corso turns to Craig James and goes, you knew

615
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: this and didn't tell me, and Craig James goes, I.

616
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 3: Didn't know, and he goes you knew, and Craig Joe,

617
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 3: I didn't know. And Lee Corso sits up and goes, blank,

00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 3: you you knew? You knew?

619
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: And Lee is laughing while he's doing like he's not mad,

00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 3: You knew? What Foller you knew? And Fellows, Oh, absolutely

624
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 3: I knew.

625
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 1: I was in Absolutely I knew, And Lee is laughing

626
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: and he can't get over it because right away he

627
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: gets the joke, like he gets that this was really

628
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: funny on the air, like he's just he can't start.

629
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 1: He's trying to pretend to be mad and Craig James

630
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: for you know, for effect. But it said Craig James going, Lee, I.

631
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 3: Didn't know, Lee, I didn't know. I didn't know Lee

632
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 3: at least, go blank, you you knew? Blank, you you knew.

633
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 1: And that became a thing we said for like the

634
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: next few months at ESPN. When someone says something someone

635
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 1: didn't know, he would look at each other.

636
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 3: Go blank, you you knew, Blank, you you knew.

637
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,360

Speaker 1: And it was it And and that tape was legendary

645
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: because I remember seeing that and I said, because we're

646
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,639
Speaker 1: all watching, going, oh my god, I go and I

647
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: said to the tape operator, could I get a copy

648
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: of that? He goes, yeah, sure, he gives me a

649
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 1: copy and I'm like, I had the copy of that tape.

650
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 3: The next week, people go, hey, could I get that tape?

651
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 3: I got that. I want to see the tape, want

652
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 3: to see the Leek Corso thing.

653
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: I want to see the Craig James saying, God, it's

654
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: only like four and a half minutes long.

655
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 3: And it was absolutely hysterical.

656
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: And to see Lee at the end, and the thing

657
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,959
Speaker 1: is right away after a moment like that where you

658
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: think you just did the worst segment of television of

659
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: all time because you don't know it's a joke, and

660
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: what they must have been going through for those four

661
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: and a half minutes right away to be let in

662
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: that it's a joke, and for Lee Corso to get

663
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,959
Speaker 1: it right away and just start laughing at it, like

664
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: that's kind of who he was, Like he was he

665
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: was pretending to be mad at Craig James, but just

666
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: to just blank you you and you knew, and you

667
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: knew and you and you and I'm going wow, And

668
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, time to time over the course

669
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: of my life, I've thought about that. I said, that's

670
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: one of the best pranks I've ever seen. And it

671
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: was and like I said, that tape was so I

672
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: could have sold that tape.

673
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 3: For I don't know, five hundred dollars. Someone would have

674
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: bought that from me to to have.

675
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 4: This is before things went viral. And also, by the

676
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 4: way it sounds like in those studios, it's kind of

677
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 4: the opposite reaction as the show. We say, Chris Berman

678
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 4: tape that mates made the rest that was a practical joke.

679
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

680
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: No, there's certain tapes where no, you're right, there's certain tape.

681
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: Usually most tapes involving Beno Cooker hysterical and they're they're

682
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: hysterically funny for a reason.

683
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 7: Uh.

684
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 4: You know who used to co host with Lee Corso

685
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 4: in the early days, is that Oh.

686
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.

687
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: He would say, you know, Lee Corso and I used

688
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: to do shows together. That's back when Methuselah would be

689
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: favored by seven points in a.

690
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 3: Big game like that. That's what he would say.

691
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: That's back when when Jonah was favored in the flood.

692
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 3: But then you know how that went, you know, like he.

693
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 4: But I get like that.

694
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: We did that show from the arc and it was

695
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: really tight because the control room you're trying to fit

696
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: two of every animal on the on the boat and

697
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 1: it gets gets crowded in that control room, like that's

698
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: what it's.

699
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 4: And he no doubt predicted Moses to win two Heisman trophies.

700
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,719
Speaker 1: Well, if you part the Red Sea, you should win

701
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: at least one Heisman Trophy.

702
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 4: Well the problem was He's Ron Paulus was the next Moses,

703
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 4: and we all know where that predictions.

704
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 3: You know he was friends with him later on with

705
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 3: the quarterback.

706
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, because because Palace then became the quarterbacks coach at

707
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: Notre Dame.

708
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 3: And he I remember when I would interview.

709
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: With which worshiped right exactly, yes, and he because and

710
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: he always he he gravitated towards me.

711
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 4: Was college football on ESPN before Leek orso.

712
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, Bino was the best, right, I mean I

713
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: had him on my show at ESPN and he was

714
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: awesome and he was so good, and he gravitated towards

715
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: my show. He says, you know why, because I heard

716
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: you you say no Tre Dame the right way you

717
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: say no Tre Dame.

718
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 3: I never said Notre Dame. I always say Notre Dame.

719
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 3: No you say it Notre Dame.

720
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: And he would come on and tell all kinds of

721
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: stories and Bino A. Bino was the best. He would

722
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: always have have great stuff to say and and always

723
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: have these great stories. He has a he had a

724
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: knowledge of the final score of bowl games going back

725
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: to like nineteen fifty five.

726
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like some baseball beat writers can actually tell

727
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 4: you who made the last out of each World Series.

728
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 4: It's really astounding.

729
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: Like I was at being a final score nineteen fifty

730
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: seven Sugar Bowl. That was West Virginia beating Texas. It

731
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: was it was like twelve to ten, And I would

732
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: look it up twelve nine right like, And I know

733
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 1: Bino's not looking up on a computer because didn't have

734
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: a computer.

735
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 3: He did, no, he did.

736
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: He never didn't have a computer. It's nothing else. So

737
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: he just knew this off the top of set. But

738
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,959
Speaker 1: you know, nineteen seventy five Orange Bowl, come on, that

739
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: was eight. Yeah, I'm like, okay, and he would have

740
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 1: it right like he had that kind of knowledge.

741
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 3: But I mean, he's, you know, the end of an.

742
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: Era, you know, for guys like Lee Corso, it's been

743
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: He's been such a fabric of college football for Sultan,

744
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: no matter how many uh, you know, inventions of the

745
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: set they do and look to and he coached.

746
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 4: One of the early Holiday Bowl games. The thing he

747
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 4: didn't exist here for in the late seventies.

748
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and you know, and the thing is

749
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: to be fair, like do I say. ESPN has a

750
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: big issue covering the NBA. Yes, they cover the NBA poorly.

751
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: They have never figured out how to cover. It's why

752
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: they're bringing in all the TNT guys now. They've never

753
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: figured out the right people on the set. They get

754
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: rid of people who were good, like the NBA. It's

755
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: just a disaster. But they do college football incredibly well,

756
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: incredibly well. And and and even though that you changed

757
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: through hosts, change to everything, like Lee Corso has been.

758
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 1: No matter what kind of football fan you are, you're

759
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: talking about a generation plus of watching on a Saturday

760
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: of Leek Courso, you know, taking off the head gear

761
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: now and then that's birthing all the different things we

762
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 1: see now and all the personality now that you see

763
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: in college football shows, whether it's going to be Dave

764
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 1: Portnoy tomorrow for Fox or Pat McAfee, whoever it is,

765
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: like Lee Corso was the guy that brought that great

766
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: sense of lightness to a set and knowledge and experience

767
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: and just a fun guy to watch talk about college football.

768
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 4: And he was hosting that Saturday morning show before headgear

769
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 4: and before they were even doing the show live from campuses.

770
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 4: That's how long he's been on the show. Let's get

771
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 4: through the update because we can update the Colorado game

772
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 4: going on right now. It is early fourth quarter and

773
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 4: Georgia Tech has scored to take the lead twenty to

774
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 4: thirteen over the Buffalos. We've got about twelve minutes left

775
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 4: in this one. Plenty of college football tonight and a

776
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 4: massive amount tomorrow, but twelve's ranked Illinois right now and

777
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 4: on leads forty five three over Western It with eight

778
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,040

807
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:36,080

808
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:37,680

809

810
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,400

813
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: but they brought it. It's like, oh, we can't win this.

862
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,040

865
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 3: Steve, you had Illinois giving forty, so I think they're

866
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,080

867
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,360
Speaker 4: They were only favored by forty. Alt Myers three touchdown

868
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,960

Speaker 4: two hundred yards rushing and over six yards of carry.

870
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 3: I mean, look, Illinois is a team.

871
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: Like every year there's that one team in the Big

872
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: tench Like we talk about Michigan and Ohio State.

873
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,720
Speaker 3: We're gonna got to Ohio State, Texas in a second.

874
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes it's Wisconsin or you know, but really

875
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: it's it's Ohio State, Penn State, and Michigan. But every

876
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: year there's that one that other team. A boy, hey,

877
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 1: if not for the heavyweights. We'd be talking a lot

878
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: more about them. And Illinois might be that team this year.

879
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 1: I mean, Brett Bilma has done a pretty good job,

880
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 1: you know the left. You can feel it coming here

881
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: and now suddenly you know, preseason top fifteen team and

882
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 1: all obviously tonight it's Western Illinois there you know, the

883
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 1: winning in a route. But they could be that big

884
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: that fod in the side, big ten team that year

885
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: that hey, if we squeak out an extra spot in

886
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: the college football Playoff, maybe it's Illinois.

887
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 4: It is a guy that's been well paid to be

888
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 4: the coach there, so maybe my standard the bar is

889
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 4: a little bit high. They need to be talked about

890
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 4: in the top twenty five for what he's earning, because

891
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 4: you know in the SEC where he earned a lot

892
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 4: of money. Pretty much everybody coach is a zillionaire, whether

893
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 4: you actually win something or not. And then he goes

894
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 4: to Illinois. Okay, he's got a great track record. You

895
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 4: know the Wisconsin years, we're superb. Okay, now you can't

896
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 4: be stumbling against Duke next game or no.

897
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no no listen, and if they don't win,

898
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: blame love Smith.

899
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:40,879
Speaker 3: It's Lovey Smith's So.

900
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 4: That's sir, that's the name. Still. Believe me, I know

901
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 4: that's a name that's still on the tips of tongues

902
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 4: in the Alini Nation.

903
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:55,280
Speaker 1: So obviously we are getting forward towards the first weekend

904
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: of college football with all the top twenty five teams.

905
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: Tonight's the appetizer for what we're getting tomorrow Colorado. Just

906
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: as in the end zone, they tie this game up

907
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: with Georgia Tech at twenty a piece. Kden Salter throwing

908
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Texas and Ohio State more points than you

909
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: think in this game. Arch Manning gets better as the

910
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: game goes on. Ohio State is replacing a ton of talent.

911
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,879
Speaker 1: They're replacing coaches in different positions. They have a new quarterback.

912
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 1: Texas is gonna win the battle at the line of scrimmage.

913
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,439
Speaker 1: They're gonna win this game thirty one to twenty three.

914
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: Their defensive line is gonna make it tougher for Ohio State.

915
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 1: Ohio State will be fine, but this is hey, You're

916
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: replacing a lot coming off the national championship. It happens,

917
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: and arch Manning will make a good amount of plays

918
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: with his legs more than his arm. Getting used to

919
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 1: new receivers now in Texas. But he's the real thing.

920
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: He's had enough experience last year. He's not gonna walk

921
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: in and suddenly boy playing at Ohio State in the

922
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: word's gonna be a bit.

923
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 3: No, he's gonna be just fine. They'll put up a

924
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 3: lot of points.

925
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,760
Speaker 1: And I think there's a reason why people are jumping

926
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: to Texas here, which has happened over the course of

927
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: the last few hours of betting. Line has changed now

928
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: Texas is favored by a point and a lot of

929
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,400
Speaker 1: books or a point and a half somewhere. But I

930
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 1: will take arch Manning over Julian Say in game one

931
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 1: and a team with a little bit more coming back

932
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 1: than they do, so I will take Texas thirty one

933
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 1: to twenty three.

934
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,280
Speaker 4: That's a lot more points score than I am guessing
