Quite literally, 82 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: they have listed out every adjective since twenty fourteen that 83 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: you have used to describe the Drummond fife. 84 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 2: It made it so much more real. Tie the quivering, 85 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 2: the slabbring the unctuousness. Yeah, those of those adjectives made it. 86 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: Uh. 87 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: It's pretty special that people are going back and combing 88 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 2: through the archives. 89 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm a fan.

Never 95 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: threaten the death of anybody, Never do that. 96 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: Not good. 97 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 2: But Jim mcawaane in an interview said that, and obviously 98 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 2: Florida fans have become quite restless with how things are 99 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: going in Gainesville, especially with the offense, and he said 100 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: he and family members and players have received death threats. 101 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 2: And then the university put out a statement saying we 102 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,559 Speaker 2: take such things very seriously. But he hasn't shown us 103 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 2: any of it, so we can't really comment on anything specifically. 104 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,559 Speaker 2: And now Jim mcawaane is saying, well, when they become 105 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 2: a distraction or more serious, then I will take the 106 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: proper steps, which is certainly one strategy. Okay, So don't 107 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: threaten people. That's awful. Mike Leech has hired an investigator 108 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 2: to dig up dirt on Texas Tech administrators. Good great 109 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 2: in an ongoing, an ongoing feud to get back his 110 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 2: money that he feels he is owed. 111 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So there's that. 112 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 2: Maryland's wearing disgusting uniforms like not even creatively weird or meaningful. 113 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess they're a throwback situation. They're just why. 114 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: They're very, very yellow, and they're not the only ones. 115 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: It's an aggressive uniform week. 116 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 2: But it's yellow with like lines above and below the 117 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: lettering and the number it looks like a number two pencil. 118 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 2: It's very strange. 119 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: We've got Illinois going with what it calls a gray 120 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: ghost against Wisconsin. They're all grays, and Ohio State also 121 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: going with grays against Penn State. They're also calling for 122 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: a blackout of the stadium, which I regret the state 123 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: does not look nearly as cool as a white out. 124 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: But everyone's partaking in this whole color fest on Halloween weekend. 125 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 2: What's tough with the end? Listen, oh to twelve teams 126 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: should be able to wear and should go for it 127 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 2: uniform wise, just like Alabama, just like whoever Alabama doesn't. 128 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: But it is strange when there could not be less 129 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: excitement around Illini football and they're like, but wait, we 130 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 2: have special uniform Like okay, cool, all right, Illinois, Uh, 131 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: get better, Illinois. 132 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: We'd like to see that. 133 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: Also, did you see the USA Today published They do 134 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: a deep dive into contracts every year. So the big 135 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: salaries and buyouts has there's their document, their database has 136 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 2: been updated. 137 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: Did you see any of those? I thought I saw, 138 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: and I assumed it must have been a typo that 139 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: either Jimbo Fisher or Dabo Sweeney, one of the two 140 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: of them, or maybe both had buyouts ranging from thirty 141 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: nine to forty million something like that. That's correct. II wow, 142 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: between the two of them. Yep, yep, holy crap. Yeah. 143 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: Now either neither one of them is going to go 144 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 2: to the NFL, but certainly there are going to be 145 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: opportunities that arise down the line that would be intriguing 146 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: to them. Perhaps Stablosh twenty forty million, he makes eight 147 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 2: and a half a year. Jimbo thirty nine making five 148 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 2: point seventy year, Jim Harbaugh there's like the weird insurance stuff, 149 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 2: but his base salary are not base, but his contracted 150 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: salary is seven million with a twenty million dollar buyout. 151 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: Chris Peterson four point one, which is good, I guess, 152 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 2: but a thirty million dollar buyout because he wanted some 153 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 2: security there. And of course, ty any conversation regarding high 154 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: high contract numbers be incomplete without noting that Kirk ferents 155 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: four and a half million dollars for his annual salary 156 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 2: and twenty two million dollars in a buyout. 157 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: There you have it.

I got a handful of really big ones, 172 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: most of which we're going to get into here. A 173 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: middle finger to me in that both Notre Dame and 174 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: Penn State are going off at the same time like 175 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: they did a week ago. What's your watch plan. I 176 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: haven't figured that out yet. I haven't figured out which 177 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: game's going on the big screen, which games going on 178 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: the iPad or a streaming device. But suffice to say, 179 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna need a couple of them because those aren't 180 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: the only two games going off at three thirty. True. 181 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Yeah, you can practice for your Laura Quinn when 182 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 2: the uh when the playoff features Notre Dame and Penn 183 00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 2: State squaring off, it's good practice. 184 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: I say, go out to a sports bar around five 185 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: pm at halftime, get a table, okay, get some drinks, 186 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: watch the second half wherever you're at, and then you know, 187 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: I'll see where the night takes you depending on the 188 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: result of the game. Stay out, revel, make friends, stay out, 189 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: drink away your sorrows, whatever it takes. But five o'clock, 190 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: I think if you get out, go somewhere nearby, get 191 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: a table at the bar, get some drinks, enjoy your evening. 192 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: That's my window of opportunity, I would say, basically, if 193 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: we're being honest here, anytime that isn't between three point 194 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: thirty and seven thirty pm Eastern time. 195 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: So that's basically your change of scenery window. That's right, exactly, 196 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 2: time to get some Cajun tots. Exactly exactly. 197 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: I can live with that. Saturday at high noon on ABC, 198 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: we've got Oklahoma State on the road at West Virginia. 199 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: They are a seven and a half point road favorite. 200 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: Have you looked at the next four weeks in the 201 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: Big Twelve? 202 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 2: Dan, Oh, it's going to be terror It's wonderful. 203 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: Oh, it's gonna get crazy in the Big Twelve. 204 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 2: We said this ty the Big Twelve. Early on we 205 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: said best TV show in college football. 206 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: Totally, Totally. It's a November to remember. To say, the 207 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: least remarkably backloaded is the schedule with really good games. 208 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: There are gonna be some upsets in there. Even if 209 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: you're not a Big Twelve fan, you should probably watch 210 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: because it's gonna be a lot of fun down the stretch. Definitely. 211 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State still alive for the conference. They're still on 212 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: the fringes of a playoff debate. They need to win out, 213 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: they need to get some help. But suffice to say 214 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: it's possible. It's only week nine. They can start building 215 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: their case now with a good road win against a 216 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: plucky West Virginia team. I look at this game. I 217 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: have trouble picking it. I have trouble picking it outright. 218 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: I have trouble picking it against the spread because there 219 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: are just a lot of similarities between these two offenses. Defensively, 220 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State is demonstrably better, at least on paper. I 221 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: don't know to what degree I can trust that Oklahoma 222 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: State defense. I feel like we come back to that 223 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 1: punchline every year when we talk about Glenn Spencer and 224 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: he had a good defense like five years ago, and 225 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, it's like, is it good? 226 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: Is it not good? Do we trust the numbers? They're 227 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: against a good offense. How do you feel? 228 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: I feel so many feelings, ty so A's what we 229 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 2: know Oklahoma State. This is their second straight road game, 230 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 2: and it's a considerable distance road game. After they go 231 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 2: to Texas, come back to Stillwater, now they go all 232 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: the way to Morgantown. The Texas game is certainly a 233 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 2: narrow emotional win. They snuck by ut laid on the 234 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 2: weird interception, which I don't love. I don't love two 235 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 2: straight road weeks, especially after a not emotional but a 236 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: sneak by weird defensive win. Certainly, there's a slight body 237 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 2: blow thing with how good Texas defense has been playing. 238 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: But oh, you know, Oklahoma State, their defense came to 239 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: play as well. The offense of the Cowboys still great, 240 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: particularly through the air. The running game has been pretty inconsistent. Defensively, 241 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 2: I think they've been fine. I don't think they've been wonderful, 242 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 2: but they've been fine. The big thing to me, Oklahoma 243 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: State is not particularly a mystery. They play pretty good 244 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 2: teams kind of closely, and they blow out teams that 245 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 2: are clearly lesser. If West Virginia, who is less of 246 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 2: a sure thing right now, if they're able to stay 247 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 2: with them the first half, make them play four full quarters, 248 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 2: somehow get better at defending the big pass, which I 249 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 2: think is a really bad matchup for West Virginia Junkyard 250 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 2: gym over there. I think they can hang with them. 251 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 2: West Virginia just has more questions to me, so I 252 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,359 Speaker 2: think it's another Oklahoma State sneak by, even though Morgantown 253 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: is tough. I'm going to take the points. I have 254 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State here thirty one twenty eight, thirty one to 255 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: twenty eight. How about this for a prediction. There are 256 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 2: going to be a lot of points and yards. It's 257 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 2: going to be a shootout in Morgantown, David Sills Junkyard Gym. 258 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 2: They're gonna combine for like five touchdowns. Whoever has the 259 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: ball last wins this game. What is my golden rule 260 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 2: of shootouts? 261 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: Dan? Just grab those points? Grab it, just snag them 262 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: start you even think twice? Yeah, grab the points. Take 263 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: him in a shootout. I think a back and forth, 264 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: fun game if you like points and offense. Oklahoma State 265 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: wins on the road forty two to thirty eight, but 266 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: West Virginia covers seven and a half. 267 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 2: You like weird number things in the sport, right, like 268 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 2: your rule of nineteen or whatever? That is just that 269 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: you never you just like that? 270 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: Yeah I do. 271 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 2: So I picked this game and I said Oklahoma State 272 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 2: thirty one twenty eight. Like then, I swear to you 273 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: this is true. I looked at West Virginia's schedule one 274 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 2: more time to make that one over. West Virginia has 275 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 2: now lost twice, correct to Virginia Tech and to TCU. 276 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: How many points did those teams score in wins? 277 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: No fun thirty one time. 278 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, wow, I'm actually I have nothing to 279 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: say that's just it's a weird coincidence, that's all. 280 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: But it rhymed with thirty one. That was great, no fun, 281 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: thirty one provocative. Okay. Moving on Saturday at three point 282 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: thirty on ABC, TCU six and a half point favorite 283 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: on the road at Iowa State, Dan, how are you 284 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: feeling about this game? 285 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 2: Another team by the way, Ty and I don't know 286 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 2: if we're gonna come up with we don't need to 287 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 2: brand everything. But in the way that NC State is 288 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: able to take advantage when cracks are shown, Iowa State 289 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 2: kind of in that same mold. Maybe like a Utah 290 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 2: in the Pac twelve. You show a little bit of weakness, 291 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: Utah's gonna find it. They may not win ten games 292 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: every year, but they're gonna find it. Iowa State is 293 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: in that mold right now, exposing Iowa excuse me, exposing 294 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: Oklahoma's defensive struggles, Texas Tech's offensive struggles. I'm feeling pretty 295 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: good about where Iowa State is as a program right now. 296 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 2: I just feel a lot better about TCU, So this 297 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: game could be interesting. But the specific matchup with how 298 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: well TCU has stopped the run and themselves been so 299 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: efficient offensively and getting the ball to so many weapons, 300 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: and Kenny Hill has been so new Kenny Hill. I 301 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 2: don't think it's an LRO situation, luck running out. I 302 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 2: just think TCU is considerably better and are playing at 303 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 2: a better level right now. 304 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: I think they are a couple of touchdowns better. I 305 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: have the Frogs thirty to sixteen. Yeah, you know there's 306 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: a creepy little spot here for TCU on Halloween weekend 307 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: because yeah, true, forgot about that, and they're unbeaten. They're 308 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: creeping up in the polls. The next four weeks are 309 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: really difficult. 310 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: They're in the polls. They're number twenty five. It's ridiculous. 311 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: I know, I know before the year we looked at 312 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: this one and we said this is a gimme. I 313 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: don't think anyone's considering Iowa State a gimme. They're five 314 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: and two, they're playing well they want with defense of 315 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: all things at Iowa State a week ago against Texas PEC, 316 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: this is a pretty good team. They beat Oklahoma on 317 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: the road. What's interesting about Iowa State is, for as 318 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: much as we talk about David Montgomery and the Duke 319 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: of Fazzard, Allen Wazart, of course, and we do not 320 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: stop talking about David Montgomery now never we are. This 321 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: isn't a particularly efficient offense. What they're good at is 322 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: winning field position. They're good at turning you over and 323 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: getting points if they make it inside your forty. But 324 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: they're not efficient. There's a lot of headroom there to 325 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: grow and mature as an offensive unit. That might happen 326 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: next year or later this year under Matt Campbell. But 327 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: I think this is the game where that lack of 328 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: efficiency catches up with them. TCU I think can take 329 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 1: away the Iowa State running game. I think they can 330 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: pressure Kyle kempt into making some mistakes. I think it's 331 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: ultimately their run defense which changes the complexion of this 332 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: game and has an impact. So TCU wins on the 333 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: road and covers blah blah blah. Thirty eight to twenty seven. 334 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: Fair enough. Saturday, three thirty CBS, We've got Georgia a 335 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: fourteen point favorite over the Florida Gators. They call this 336 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,479 Speaker 1: one the world's largest outdoor cocktail party. They played at 337 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: EverBank Field in Jacksonville. I can't remember the last time 338 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: a line was this big in a rivalry game such 339 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,479 Speaker 1: as this. Quite honestly, the only reason it's on our 340 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: list here of headliners. Is because it is such a 341 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: historic rivalry that we celebrate and like to talk about 342 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: each and every season on the solid verbal. When you 343 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: see fourteen points, how does that make you feel, Dan. 344 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: I'm glad you asked, Ty. It makes me feel as 345 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 2: if I want to search for a reason why Florida 346 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:54,479 Speaker 2: can keep it closer. 347 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: Me too. It's just it's that search. I'm worried about 348 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: that search because I'm I've been searching ever since Sunday 349 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: night when we started looking at this slate, and I'm 350 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: probably going to do something crazy here in a few minutes, 351 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: but I just I wanted to ask you first to 352 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: get your feelings and just kind of, I don't know, 353 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: be my sounding board. Yeah, and okay, so here's what 354 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: we know. 355 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 3: Ty. 356 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 2: Definitively, Florida's defense has been pretty good recently against LSU 357 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 2: and Texts A and M. They've improved versus the run 358 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: after not looking terrific. We know that there are too 359 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 2: many inconsistency issues on offense, to say the least, but 360 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: it appears that they're getting Tyree Cleveland back, which seems 361 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 2: important because if they're going to hang in this game. 362 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 2: It will be because Felipe Franks incrementally keeps getting better 363 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 2: and they the Florida offense falls behind the sticks less often, 364 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 2: which is what they've been doing. So there is an 365 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: element of that maybe popping some big plays, which is 366 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 2: what Felipe Franks does sometimes occasionally. Georgia wise, I mean, 367 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 2: we know that you've outstanding. We know their offense is 368 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: all right, still not particularly efficient. They can get the 369 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 2: big plays off at a better rate than Florida does. 370 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 2: They have skill talent all over the place, but they 371 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 2: do rely on those which tie good for Jake from 372 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 2: against a Florida team that gives up too many big plays, 373 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: that's a nice matchup right there, and Georgia and Florida. 374 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 2: Georgia to a slightly better extent, are outstanding at finishing drives. 375 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 2: They're really good in the red zone. Florida does not 376 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 2: get there as often as Georgia does. But to look 377 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 2: at this game and think it's going to be a 378 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 2: pure defensive struggle perhaps overlooks the fact that these two 379 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 2: teams they put up points in the red zone, be 380 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 2: it three, be at seven. It is something that should 381 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 2: at least strategically play a wrinkle in this game. So 382 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: I like this matchup a lot, but I could not 383 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 2: find tie for the life of me. I don't love 384 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: George's corners on every snap, but that is such nitpicking 385 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: nonsense that I love Georgia's linebackers in front so much. 386 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 2: I have Georgia here thirty four to thirteen. 387 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: Wow, I understand that, I do. I kept coming back 388 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: to this. You know, for for as bad as Florida 389 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 1: is on offense, they've been in most of their games. Yeah, 390 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: Michigan and Vandy those are the two outliers, but look 391 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: at the rest of their games Tennessee, Kentucky, lsu A, 392 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: and m All those games were close, man. And they're 393 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 1: not good on offense at all, but they're weirdly good 394 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: at doing just enough to keep it close. And in 395 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: a rivalry game where got throw them out time, I 396 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: do believe you throw them out regardless of record. You 397 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: just have to blindly toss them out the window in 398 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 1: a game like this. I am intrigued by that matchup 399 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: because I don't know if Florida can move the ball 400 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: on Georgia. I have a sneaking suspicion they can't, but 401 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if Georgia can run on Florida because 402 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: they have improved defensively against the run. What if, humor me, 403 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: what if Jake from Jake's period, whatever you want to 404 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: call him. What if he is forced to throw the football? 405 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: What if they can't get the kind of effectiveness they're 406 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: used to on the ground and they need to rely 407 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,479 Speaker 1: on him. What does that game look like? How does 408 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: that change the complexion here? I am very tempted to 409 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: go Florida outright, and I know that that's totally, totally crazy, wow, 410 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: But I kept coming back to the fact that Florida 411 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: is in a rivalry. They've probably been looking forward to 412 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: this game for a while. They're good at keeping it 413 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: close enough. It would not surprise me if they won. 414 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: To be honest, I don't think it happens, but I 415 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: do like them to cover lock of the Week, and 416 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna get crazy. I'm gonna get crazy. I'm 417 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: going to lock up Florida plus fourteen in the world's 418 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: largest outdoor cocktail party, big rival. Say the word outright, 419 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: ty see it. I might come back to it. I 420 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: might get crazy. For right now, I'm not going to. 421 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: It's a good point though. 422 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 2: The Jake from factor of him having to win this 423 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 2: game over the course of four quarters if Florida keeps 424 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 2: it close. He between the Notre Dame game and the 425 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 2: Miszoo game, did not throw it more than fifteen times 426 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 2: in any of those games. In the Mizoo game, which 427 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 2: was weirdly close early on, he ended up throwing it 428 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 2: twenty six times. But he's only thrown it twenty five 429 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 2: plus times twice, and it was in those two games 430 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 2: this season. So we really don't know, and that Missoo 431 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 2: game wasn't a game late. We don't know how to 432 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 2: what degree we can count on Jake from having to 433 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 2: go twenty four of thirty seven and come up with 434 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 2: a game winning drive with two h seven left. 435 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 1: The problem with my theory is that Georgia has been 436 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,719 Speaker 1: ripping off the arms and legs of teams that they 437 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: played with the exception of Notre Dame. So we'll see. 438 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm curious. I can envision a scenario 439 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: in which Florida wins this game out right. Yeah. Also, 440 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: at three point thirty on NBC Notre Dame, one week 441 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: after their big win against USC in primetime, they're back 442 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: at home. They are a seven and a half point 443 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: favorite against visiting NC State. All of a sudden, den 444 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, like a vision up in the sky, 445 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: an apparition on Halloween, whatever you want to call it, 446 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, it just appears that Notre Dame 447 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: is this playoff contender. People were talking all week, Yeah, 448 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: big win against USC Maybe Notre Dame is better than advertised. 449 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: People started writing them off after the one point Georgia loss. 450 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: Turns out George is pretty good, right, it does turn out, yes. Meanwhile, 451 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: NC State has just been sitting at home, lick at 452 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: their chops. They've been howling at the moon like a 453 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: good wolf pack does, waiting to go on the road 454 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: and assert their claim as one of the elite teams 455 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: in college football this year. Remember, they've only got one 456 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: loss all year, came in Week one. So far, they've 457 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: looked pretty good. Not a great loss, I'll you know, 458 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: not a great loss by any stretch. Yeah, but it 459 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,239 Speaker 1: was early. Ryan Finley still has yet to throw an 460 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: interception there. Front seven on defense is mobile, agile, hostile. 461 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 1: They got Bradley Chubb. I am fascinated by this matchup 462 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: on all fronts. 463 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 2: I think it's it's reasonable to be fascinated by this. 464 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 3: I am. 465 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 2: I feel like I'm equally I'm right there with you. 466 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: Here's what I ask you about NC State specifically before 467 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 2: we get into Notre Dame. Do their wins look as 468 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 2: good as they felt when it happened. No, so Louisville 469 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: has subsequently lost. So they lost. Louisville did at NC 470 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 2: State on a Thursday or Friday night by it was close, 471 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 2: but it ended up being a couple of touchdowns after 472 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: I think a late pick six, and then Florida State 473 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,679 Speaker 2: certainly does not have the luster that it did at 474 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 2: the time. So NC State, like good teams do, are 475 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 2: able to take it to teams that are showing cracks. Reasonable. Yeah, 476 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 2: they beat Syracuse by I think a score. They beat 477 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 2: Pitt comfortably, but Notre Dame, it seems to me, is 478 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 2: a level above and they're going on the road now. 479 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 2: Granted for Notre Dame a week after an emotional win, 480 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 2: a huge I mean not emotional win that it came 481 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,719 Speaker 2: down to the last second. But I think a big 482 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 2: relief for the Irish that they really have arrived. They're 483 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 2: able to distance themselves from a pretty good team. It's 484 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 2: an impressive showing Notre Dame's offense is not really a 485 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 2: sort of chug along offense. They're not going five to 486 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 2: six for seven yards at a time. You know, maybe 487 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 2: they'll run for two yards and then rip off a 488 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 2: seventeen yard run. Brandon Wimbush might have some accuracy issues, 489 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 2: but then complete a ridiculous out pattern for thirty one yards. 490 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 2: That kind of offense, right, fair to say, totally so, 491 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 2: really great at generating big plays. They're unbelievable in the 492 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: red zone, a huge step forward from where they were 493 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: last season offensively, and NC State is just sort of 494 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: all right at everything, which is a good thing to be. 495 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. The defense gives up too many 496 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 2: big plays, which is a bad matchup against Notre Dame. 497 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 2: But if NC State is going to win this game, 498 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 2: or keep this game close, or give themselves an opportunity 499 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 2: to win this game late, it will be because they're 500 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 2: able to control the ball offensively, most likely through the air, 501 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 2: and it's that Ryan Finley factor. Notre Dame's defense can't 502 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 2: get off the field on third and four, stuff like that. 503 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 2: That's a lot of butts. It's a lot of butts, 504 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 2: too many butts. 505 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: Tyan. I. 506 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 2: We don't get us wrong. We love lots of butts, 507 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 2: lots of butts. But and there's another one. I don't 508 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 2: know if I love having to qualify everything. Nancy State 509 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 2: had a week off, and it could be a letdown spot. 510 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 2: Notre Dame is favored by what what's the late seven 511 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: and a half seven and a half points. I think 512 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the home team that can run 513 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 2: the ball well and force a team to be one 514 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,239 Speaker 2: dimensional offensively. I'm going to go with Notre Dame by 515 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 2: a couple scores. 516 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: Here, Okay. 517 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 2: I'm feeling something like twenty eight seventeen. 518 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 1: Okay, so reason lower scoring then I might anticipate. 519 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think I think Notre Dame's defense and 520 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 2: be able to hold the Wolfpack down a bit. Yeah, 521 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 2: twenty eight to seventeen in that range. 522 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 1: Well, I'm mildly terrified because of the letdown factor. I 523 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: don't know how much of that will creep in here. 524 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 1: But big home win primetime over USC. I could see 525 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: a slow start for Notre Dame, and beyond that, what 526 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: worries me is and they've been a fast starting team. 527 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: They've been a fast starting team. Absolutely what worries me 528 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: beyond that is what the matchup looks like between their 529 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: rushing offense and a really good front seven fansis State 530 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: really good front seven? It's going to be a war 531 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: up front. I think has the edge there, but it 532 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: will be interesting if there's a little bit of a 533 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: hangover from a week ago and NC State comes out 534 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: and is able to kind of curtail that attack. I 535 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: don't think they're good enough to completely shut down Notre Dame. 536 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: They are, however, definitely good enough to change Chiplong's game plan, 537 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: and I think that's where the real opportunity lies for 538 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Wimbush. He can connect down the field with guys 539 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: like Equanimias Saint Brown, Chase Claypool, Alise Mack maybe the 540 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: coolest name in college football. I think that could be 541 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: the difference in this football game, not so much NC 542 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: State totally shutting down Notre Dame's rushing attack, but maybe 543 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: keying on it so much that Brandon Wimbush has a 544 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: chance to look down the field and connect on some 545 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 1: bigger throws. I would also encourage everyone to that end 546 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: to go on out and read what Ian Boyd wrote 547 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: on Espionation about how the Notre Dame offense works and 548 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: how it centers around the the running game, how that 549 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: opens up the pass and whatnot. It kind of kind 550 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: of plays into this whole theory. I don't want to 551 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: blindly dismiss NC State's offense either. I mentioned Ryan find 552 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: They have a couple important weapons. Yeah, I mean I 553 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: mentioned Ryan Finley hasn't thrown an interception, but Nahim Hines 554 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: has grown into a really solid running back. Jalen Samuel's 555 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: the all world whatever. H back leads the team in receptions. 556 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: They're better throwing than running, but they're still really balanced, 557 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: and especially in a game like this where there could 558 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: be a hangover again hypothetically, a really balanced attack is 559 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: something that kind of scares me. USC was supposed to 560 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: have that balance attack, but they didn't really show it. 561 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,959 Speaker 1: NC State, i think, is probably better than USC at 562 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: this point, and having that balance a week after a 563 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: big game is something that mildly terrifies me. I agree 564 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: with you that Notre Dame wins. I think more points 565 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: as is typical, though I have to say that NC 566 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: State covers the spread, so IM going to say thirty 567 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: eight to thirty one. Notre Dame wins. And s State covers. 568 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 2: That's a lot of points, so you like the over. 569 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: No matter what, I think, Notre Dame starts slow, and 570 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: I think against all statistical proof thus far, which bears 571 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: out that NC State gets better on defense as a 572 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: game wears on, I think Notre Dame will find its 573 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: way in the second half and ultimately come out ahead 574 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 1: by a touchdown. 575 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 2: Do you have a magic number? So we've talked about 576 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 2: this in the past with various situations. Brandon Wimbusch has 577 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 2: not thrown more than thirty times in all of the 578 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 2: games he's played, and he missed one except for the 579 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 2: Georgia game that was a narrow loss. Do you have 580 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 2: a magic number? If Notre Dame starts slowly and maybe 581 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 2: they have to throw from behind a little bit, they 582 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 2: go down fourteen to three, and the run is just 583 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 2: isn't there consistently. If Brandon Wimbush is forced to throw 584 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 2: blank number of times I tie hilden Brent become worried. 585 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: Twenty seven. 586 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: If he's throwing twenty seven times, that indicates Notre Dame 587 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 2: is sort of off what they should be doing. I think, yeah, okay, reasonable. 588 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: Moving on Saturday at three thirty this one's on Fox. 589 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: This is the biggest game of the weekend. Let's be honest. 590 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: We've got Ohio State at home, a six, six and 591 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: a half point favorite against the hated Penn State Nitney Lyons. 592 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: You might recall that last year Penn State won twenty 593 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: four to twenty one in State College after Grant Haley 594 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: returned a blocked field goal sixty yards for a touchdown. 595 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: I do recall, Yes, it feels like an eternity since 596 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: you and I talked about Ohio State. 597 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 2: What have they been up too lately? 598 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: You might ask, somebody got murder parrying teams like UNLV 599 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: and Rutgers in Maryland and Nebraska. They've won their last 600 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: five games by an average of forty two points. JT. 601 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: Barrett on the year, has a twenty one to one 602 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: touchdown to interception ratio JK. Dobbins averaging seven and a 603 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: half of carry. They are very, very good, and not 604 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: only that, they had a week to prepare for a 605 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: Penn State team that just made a statement by drilling 606 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: Michigan and. 607 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 2: Got a good look at what Penn State was going 608 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 2: to do against a big name, primetime type opponent. 609 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: Totally, I would say this I don't know what your 610 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: method is for trying to figure out who's going to 611 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: win and who isn't. If you're kind of on the 612 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: fence here, don't bother looking at the numbers because they're 613 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: really not going to help you that much. We know 614 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: both teams are good. The only thing that I could 615 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: glean from my TiO metrics is that Penn State special 616 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: teams are better than I thought. They're better than I 617 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: Statistically speaking, they're better than I thought last year. That 618 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 1: played a factor, But beyond that, the numbers for me 619 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: are aren't really breaking one way or the other. It 620 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: comes down to matchups. All college football comes down the matchups. 621 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: But is there anything in particular when you look at 622 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: this game that you're saying, Okay, that's something that I 623 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: need to watch, That's something that I think favors one 624 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: team over another. 625 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, what Penn State, and especially at linebacker, is able 626 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 2: to do against Ohio State on the ground because Michigan 627 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 2: ran directly at the teeth of the Penn State defense. 628 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: And I imagine whether it's because of beck Meyer syndrome 629 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 2: and the running JT. Brett a whole bunch in a 630 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 2: big game more so than really talented. We've seen the 631 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 2: one two of these Ohio State backs, particularly JK. Dobbins, 632 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 2: has been pretty electric. But how Ohio State maybe tries 633 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 2: to test the perimeter and make the linebackers of Penn 634 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 2: State go sideline to sideline, which it didn't seem Michigan 635 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 2: was able to do all that. Well, I'm curious about 636 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 2: that because something like that should open up, especially if 637 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 2: Ohio State is using sweet motions and stuff like that 638 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: to get the linebacker's eyes all over the place. Should 639 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 2: open up the passing game, which is something we haven't 640 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 2: really seen with much success downfield for Ohio State in 641 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 2: these bigger games with J. T. Barrett these past couple seasons. 642 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 2: So that to me, I mean, it isn't a specific number, 643 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 2: but that is a specific matchup that I think I'm 644 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: most interested in because, yeah, you're right, Ohio State has 645 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 2: been playing games where you just sort of see the 646 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 2: score on the bottom line and say, yeah, that makes sense. 647 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 2: You don't really have a need to watch Ohio State, Nebraska, 648 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 2: Rutgers or marylandor whoever they've been playing, because you knew 649 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 2: that this stretch was going to be here, and all 650 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 2: that really mattered was what they were able to do 651 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,800 Speaker 2: against these top flight teams. Penn State obvious letdown factor 652 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 2: going to a hostile place after a big emotional win, 653 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: you know, a revenge spot last week against Michigan after 654 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 2: losing the way they did last year. Ohio State, you 655 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 2: can throw on them more so, it seems, and you've 656 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 2: been able to throw in Ohio State teams in the past, 657 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 2: which is the proper context, I think, because they're defensive 658 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:57,959 Speaker 2: and their front is still so ridiculous. So Penn State, 659 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 2: their defense has looked nothing short of out standing. Have 660 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 2: they even allowed a point in a first quarter yet? 661 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: No, they're the only team, they have, the only team 662 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: in FBS college football that has yet to allow a point. 663 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: I think they've outscored opponents ninety to zero in first 664 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:15,240 Speaker 1: quarters so far this season. 665 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, so's it's a game that's going to come down 666 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 2: to me two moments. You know, on third and four. 667 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 2: Is Penn State able to keep a drive going? Are 668 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,799 Speaker 2: they creative enough play calling wise to sort of find 669 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 2: the little you know, the holes in the Ohio State 670 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 2: zone whatever, stuff like that, because Trace McSorley had kind 671 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 2: of a garbage game against the Buckeyes last year, Right, Yeah, totally. 672 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 3: It was not. 673 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 2: McSorley who won them that game. So I do have concerns. 674 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 2: I am actually and this goes against every every muscle 675 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 2: fiber that I have in my brain, which is I 676 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 2: don't even know if there are muscle fibers in your brain. 677 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 2: Probably not, probably not. I'm taking Penn State here, yeah, 678 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 2: I have not seen a JT. Barrett game, and against 679 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,439 Speaker 2: a huge opponent that I feel particularly confident about. I'm 680 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 2: going Penn State here, not just to cover it's what 681 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 2: a seven point spread? 682 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, six and a half, seven six half somewhere in there. 683 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 2: I am right now feeling better about the readiness of 684 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 2: Penn State. I'm not locking it up because that'd be 685 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 2: but the Lion's win here twenty three twenty Okay, I. 686 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: Could see that you talked about Penn State's linebackers against 687 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: Ohio State. Let's talk about Ohio State's linebackers against Penn 688 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: State's offense. Penn State runs a spread, but they do 689 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: a lot of RPO stuff run pass option, and what 690 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: that translates to is a lot of pressure on linebackers. 691 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: They got to play disciplined because if they don't, if 692 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: they over commit, that's sort of what opens things up 693 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: for Trace McSorley, both as a runner and as a passer. 694 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: You mentioned mcsherley didn't do a whole lot through the 695 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: air last year, but he led Penn State and carries 696 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: and he had a big touch down late. He was 697 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: able to get something going on offense, just not in 698 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 1: the deep State fashion that we grew accustomed too late 699 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: in the year. So it's the best name. So my 700 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: point there is watch Ohio State's linebackers to see if 701 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: they're able to play their keys correctly prevent the big 702 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,479 Speaker 1: plays on the ground through the air by Penn State. 703 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 1: That's the first thing. Okay. The second thing that I'm 704 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: going to watch is, and you alluded to it, the 705 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: Ohio State defensive line against Penn State's offensive line. That's 706 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: what I'm most concerned about. If I'm a Penn State fan. 707 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: It should not be overlooked that Penn State's offensive front 708 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 1: had trouble with Northwestern. Yeah. I know they won that game, 709 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: but I'm telling you, dog, if you watched it, they 710 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 1: did not look good and it was frickin' Northwestern. They 711 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 1: were fine last week against Michigan. I feel like this 712 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: is a much, much different way level of a defensive 713 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: line at this point in Ohio State, they're very, very good. 714 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: According to Bill Connolly's numbers, Ohio State's defensive line creates 715 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 1: the most havoc of any in the country. I think 716 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 1: that is the issue for Penn State here, and that 717 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: is what most concerns me. That said, I'm going to 718 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: agree with you, and I'm going to harken back to 719 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: something that our friend David Jones said over at penlive 720 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: dot com. If you look at what Penn State has 721 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: done in the past against Ohio State in the Horseshoe, 722 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 1: it has not been a pretty picture at all. 723 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 2: I was at one of those games Tye in two 724 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 2: thousand and eight. 725 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: Maybe it was real low scoring and very bad to 726 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 1: watch totally, but his point is that this is the 727 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: first time in an eternity or Penn State goes into 728 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: the shoe with a swagger, and that stands for something 729 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 1: in college football. So what'd you say twenty three to ten, 730 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: twenty three, twenty No, I think it's real club twenty 731 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: three twenty What am I saying? 732 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 2: I trust Trace McSorley late more so than I trust J. T. 733 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 3: Barrett. 734 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 1: Let's get nuts and say twenty four to nineteen Penn State. 735 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 2: Ty, do you know where that Penn State swagger comes from? 736 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 2: The Fordham Rams? Obviously. Yeah, it's undeniable that Penn State 737 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 2: did not have an identity until New York's one true team, 738 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 2: the Fordham Rams gave them benevolently, no morehead. 739 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, they didn't find that identity until about a couple 740 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: weeks into the year, until that Minnesota game a year 741 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: ago after they lost by thirty nine to Michigan, went 742 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: to overtime against Minnesota. But from that point forward, Yeah, 743 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: the whole script flipped on them and they've been lights 744 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: out ever since, haven't lost in the regular season. True, 745 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:51,760 Speaker 1: good game. I'm excited, we'll see. I'm going Penn State outright, 746 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: and that's out of no disrespect to Ohio State. This 747 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: is incredible team, incredible team, but I gotta go with 748 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: my heart. I'm gonna go Penn State. 749 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 3: Yeah. 750 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: Fair enough. Other semi important games that we should at 751 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: least discuss here a little bit. We've got Michigan State 752 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,800 Speaker 1: minus two on the road at Northwestern Dan. I looked 753 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 1: at the schedule. I poured over it very intensely. Don't 754 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: do that. This is probably the most boring Big Ten 755 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 1: games since Northwestern's last football game. 756 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 2: Oh, you know that's not true, Ty. I mean, this 757 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 2: game might be boring, but there's an Illinois, there's a Maryland, right, 758 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 2: there's boring quotients, there's Iowa. 759 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. Let's go Michigan State minus the points here, 760 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Michigan State. Also, at three point thirty 761 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: on Saturday, we've got UCLA at Washington. This is an 762 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: alarmingly high point spread, Daniel. It's also alarmingly early for 763 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: the Pac twelve. Alarmingly high. It is seventeen points in 764 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:02,840 Speaker 1: favor of Washington. They're at home, a beefy point spread. 765 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 2: How do you feel I feel like UCLA has done 766 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,399 Speaker 2: very little to get away from the fact that they 767 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 2: are the cure for the common offense which Washington had 768 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 2: against Arizona State. So I'd be very appreciative if you 769 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 2: drop the PLoP PLoP phizz fizz for MELOPI release it is. 770 00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that feels right. 771 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think Washington gets it going on the 772 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 2: ground Ucla, as we've seen, you know, granted it was 773 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:34,240 Speaker 2: a very limited Oregon offense, but elsewhere early on against 774 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 2: Texas A and M. We saw what Khalil Tape did 775 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 2: against UCLA. I firmly believe even with Washington having its 776 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: own injury struggles, try Adams. They're left tackles out for 777 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 2: the year. They're down a couple corners against Josh Rosen, 778 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,240 Speaker 2: which is never a wonderful thing. But I think Washington 779 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,800 Speaker 2: controls this game. UCLA is it's just too far to 780 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 2: go on defense, So I think Washington gets back on 781 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,439 Speaker 2: track something like I don't know, forty two to twenty, 782 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:57,479 Speaker 2: all right. 783 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: I agree agrees. At seven fifteen, Mississippi State a one 784 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: point road favorite at Texas A and M. My question 785 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,919 Speaker 1: for you, do you doubt Nick Fitzgerald again? 786 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 3: Dan? 787 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 1: Do you doubt him again? Do you have the audacity 788 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 1: to doubt Nick fits? Yeah? 789 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 2: I mean what he did against them last year just 790 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 2: is enough make me feel bad. 791 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and doubt Nick Fitzgerald this week. Actually, 792 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: I like Kellen Mond Moore. I think A and M 793 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: has too many weapons. They're at home, a low point 794 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: spread here, I'm not sure this is a close game. 795 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 1: I like Texas A and M to win pretty handily 796 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 1: at home. I'd feel like it's gonna be pretty close. 797 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 2: Texas A and M, though, is in a spot that 798 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 2: I always like, picking a week off, coming off of 799 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 2: a you know, a bye week, having a pretty good defense, 800 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,799 Speaker 2: playing at home as a dog. I think I'm gonna 801 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 2: go A and M here, and I understand that Mississippi 802 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 2: State should be able to move the ball. They have 803 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 2: a history of moving the ball against Texas A and M. 804 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,760 Speaker 2: But I think Kellen mand with another week to get reps, 805 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 2: I'm going to go miss it. I'm gonna go excuse me, 806 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 2: text say and I'm here by seven to ten, something like. 807 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 2: Let's call it thirty four to twenty four. 808 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: Saturday at eight pm, Georgia Tech at Clempson. Clemson a 809 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,759 Speaker 1: fourteen point favorite. We got Clemson favor by a lot here. 810 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: I think it's justified. I'm curious to see how they 811 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:27,400 Speaker 1: handle the option, but I trust in the Clemson defense 812 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,760 Speaker 1: more than anything else, So I will lay the points 813 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,280 Speaker 1: and take Clemson minus a fourteen. 814 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't know who's starting at quarterback. We don't 815 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 2: know this situation. Kelly Brian has been cleared from concussion 816 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 2: stuff but still has a pretty tender ankle apparently, so 817 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,479 Speaker 2: if it's Zarah Cooper that might not be great. Didn't 818 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 2: look fully that good against Syracuse, which is worrisome. I'm 819 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:51,840 Speaker 2: going to go Clemson here. I think defense special teams. 820 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 2: They should be able to run the ball, even though 821 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 2: they're not particularly efficient. I do like Travis etn Tavian Feast, 822 00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. I think they're going to be 823 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 2: creative enough to win this game. So gimme Clemson. But 824 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 2: I'm worried about the quarterback situation. 825 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 1: I'm in a monitor. Saturday at eight pm, we got 826 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: Texas Tech a twenty point underdog at Oklahoma, Dan, I 827 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: got it. I gotta bring this up. Oh, look at 828 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 1: dud Sandwich. I'm so hungry. I'm so hungry by This 829 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,879 Speaker 1: might not be a true letdown look ahead Sandwich game, 830 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 1: but okay, emotional road win over k State for Oklahoma. 831 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,320 Speaker 1: They saw their playoff hopes flash before their eyes. Next 832 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:38,240 Speaker 1: week they got the Bedlam game on the road, nestled 833 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: in between a pesky little Texas Tech game. I don't 834 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 1: think Tech's good enough to win this game, Dan, but 835 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 1: I don't think Oklahoma's defense is good enough to maintain 836 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: a twenty point lead a twenty point line in this game. 837 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 1: Or you know Texas Tech is gonna come out firing. 838 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:59,479 Speaker 1: It's sort of like their national championship. So I'm gonna 839 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: take the points here in a potential shootout, Texas Tech 840 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: plus a twenty. 841 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 2: So here's the thing about Oklahoma. I don't think Vegas 842 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 2: has really figured out the Sooners. It's like they're one 843 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 2: in five against the spread recently, which is fine. It's 844 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 2: not up to Oklahoma to make spreads. But the inconsistency, 845 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,320 Speaker 2: largely because of defense, has been the reason. Because the 846 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 2: reason behind that, excuse me, I'm going to take Tech 847 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 2: in the points. It feels a little bit shootout e 848 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,799 Speaker 2: that Oklahoma. You know, maybe it's a back door cover 849 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 2: or something like that. But Oklahoma should win by ten 850 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 2: to fourteen. So I'm going to say forty four to 851 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 2: thirty one. Oklahoma gets it done. They don't cover in 852 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 2: this game. I'm curious to see what Texas Tech looks 853 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 2: at looks like at quarterback. It's this is a real name, 854 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 2: McClain Carter. It is very much a Texas Tech quarterback. 855 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 2: Now is the backup as of this moment. Nick Shimeneka 856 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 2: struggled a bit recently, so will be interesting to see 857 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 2: what happens there. But I'm I'm taking ou here just 858 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 2: because I don't know if we can fully count on 859 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 2: Tech right now. 860 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: And then the night Caps in the PAC twelve so cool, 861 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 1: Yeah Pac twelve after dark, if you will. We've got 862 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 1: Washington State three point favorite on the road at Arizona. 863 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 1: There could be a ton of points in this game. Oh, 864 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: Arizona does not bother with defense. They can't be troubled 865 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: for that. But they've gotten a hell of a lot 866 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:18,799 Speaker 1: better since fully committing to West Coast Lamar Jackson, Khalil Tate, 867 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 1: have you noticed that he has started to bubble up 868 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,839 Speaker 1: on some Heisman lists. We are responsible for this, I mean, 869 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 1: he's ultimately responsible for it, but we're doing this great 870 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 1: everything we can to sort of nudge him along. 871 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, And so Arizona wins last week in what one 872 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 2: or two overtimes? Our buddy Yogi Roth was on the 873 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: call forty five to forty four on the road at 874 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,799 Speaker 2: cal coming back home to the desert Washington State. That's 875 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 2: a faraway trip, ty, going from Pullman to Tucson is 876 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the farthest distance between Pack 877 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,120 Speaker 2: twelve schools, but it certainly in my dumb head, sounds 878 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 2: like it. I really want what my pick to be 879 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 2: Washington State. Like their defense Arizona is a little lro 880 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 2: to me, just because all of a sudden, they have 881 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 2: this revelation at quarterback who's running for two hundred yards 882 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 2: a game, and it's a pace that I don't think 883 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 2: anybody can keep up unless he really is, in fact, 884 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson. But the fact of the matter is he 885 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 2: didn't win the job outright during this during the during 886 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 2: fall camp, and that worries me a little bit that 887 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 2: he he may have a clunker in him against a 888 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 2: very very good defense in Washington State. But if I'm 889 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,360 Speaker 2: gonna believe such a thing, I should think that the 890 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 2: line would be a little bit higher that Washington State 891 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 2: coming off of a couple of impressive wins this year, 892 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 2: you know, beating USC the way they did. 893 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 1: I hate the travel though, tie. 894 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,359 Speaker 2: I hate that the fact that they're going this far, 895 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,720 Speaker 2: they're playing that late, They're sitting around all day waiting. 896 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 2: I guess it's only six thirty on the West coast. 897 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna take Arizona. I think their defense 898 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,439 Speaker 2: is feisty enough to get to Luke fock enough, they'll 899 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 2: be able to generate a couple of big plays on 900 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 2: the ground. I think they keep the train rolling. It's 901 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 2: just a bad life matchup for Wazoo. I'm gonna take 902 00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 2: Arizona out right. 903 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 1: I think Khalil Tate takes the next step in his 904 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: heisman candidacy, big home w here fifty five fifty two 905 00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: in PAC twelve after dark and then finally the late 906 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:17,920 Speaker 1: late game ten forty five. If you stay up to 907 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:22,359 Speaker 1: watch this game, God bless you. USC also a three 908 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 1: point road favorite at at Arizona State. Dan, I'm going 909 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 1: to stick to my guns here. I am gonna say 910 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:34,760 Speaker 1: body blow theory in play? Oh interesting for whom body 911 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 1: blow theory in play? For USC? A week after getting 912 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 1: pushed around by Notre Dame second straight road Yeah, ASU 913 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 1: has come on like a freight train. The defense looks 914 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: for real. I'm going to take them out right at home. 915 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 1: I think a big week for both Arizona schools at night. 916 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:55,080 Speaker 2: So do you think? 917 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:55,720 Speaker 1: Okay? 918 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,799 Speaker 2: So Notre Dame is a team we've established as being 919 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 2: very good. Most likely in our minds, Notre Dame beating 920 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,319 Speaker 2: the teams the way they have now, including USC. They're 921 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:07,919 Speaker 2: most likely very good. 922 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 1: Correct, right, correct? 923 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 2: USC loses to a very good team, but they themselves 924 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 2: have talent on both sides, are beat up on defense. 925 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 2: The receivers have not come through like I think a 926 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 2: lot of us imagined they eventually would with a good 927 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,280 Speaker 2: quarterback who had finished the year as strongly as USC. 928 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 1: Did last year. 929 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,800 Speaker 2: If USC loses at Arizona State and they're only favored 930 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 2: by what a field goal three to three and a 931 00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 2: half points, it almost seems like we're back at a 932 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 2: wheels are coming off in the Desert Point with USC. 933 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,240 Speaker 2: UC won the Rose Bowl, and now they're only favored 934 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 2: by a field goal against a team that seemed like 935 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 2: they were heading in a really poor direction. Arizona State 936 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 2: turns it around. I think we're and I know it's late, 937 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 2: but it's not much travel for USC. It's like a 938 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 2: forty five minute flight. It's not terribly far. I think 939 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 2: we may be undervalue in USC just a little bit. 940 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:01,360 Speaker 1: I think so. 941 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 2: I think if they if they stay simple, if they 942 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 2: run the ball, well, I know they're beat up along 943 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 2: both lines, I still feel like there's some undervalue in 944 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 2: going on. I'm gonna take USC outright to win this game. 945 00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:13,759 Speaker 2: By by about ten points. 946 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 1: You're gonna regret the day you said that. I'm gonna 947 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 1: pull that audio out. I'm gonna play it. I'm I'm willing. 948 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,399 Speaker 2: I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong, Ty, because it's 949 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:23,439 Speaker 2: the thing I do best. 950 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 3: Well. 951 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: Sure, and here's the thing about USC You're not wrong. 952 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,800 Speaker 1: And I agree to some extent that they may be undervalued. 953 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 1: I still think they're a very, very good football team. 954 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 1: I think they might be spent a little bit emotionally 955 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 1: after the last couple of weeks. It's been a bit 956 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: of a bumpy ride for them, and much like we 957 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:45,919 Speaker 1: saw with Utah after they lost two big games back 958 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:50,560 Speaker 1: to back, it's not too far beyond the realm that 959 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 1: they would just lay a stinker here, and. 960 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:55,920 Speaker 2: They've they've been sort of underwhelming on the road just 961 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 2: in general. 962 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, we'll see. I'm gonna go asu 963 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 1: out right. I think they win this game. I think 964 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 1: they continue their own momentum. This is a really big 965 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: game for them, maybe the biggest on the schedule. 966 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 3: Yep. 967 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: All right, So it's at this point in time before 968 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:15,280 Speaker 1: we talk about the Friday eight pm game between Florida 969 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 1: State and Boston College that we take the bubble wrap off, 970 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 1: another installment of what we're calling the Adam Amine Voice 971 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 1: Meal of the Week.

He will be calling the Friday night game, 973 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 1: as he does typically on a college football week. He 974 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 1: gets things started and has called some really fun games 975 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: so far this year. Florida State minus three at Boston 976 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,240 Speaker 1: College is a game that you and I should probably 977 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 1: discuss here, but before we do, the voice Meal will 978 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: plunge into the depths that is Boston food. Have a listen, 979 00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 1: you're doing it, Adam Aman, you're playing with us. 980 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:01,400 Speaker 2: You're leaving us a. 981 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:09,520 Speaker 3: Voice meal, historic, rustic, Pilgrimmy. I feel like these words 982 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 3: are accurate and or not real words to describe the 983 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 3: clam shower rich landscape of Boston College's Chestnut Hill. This week, 984 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 3: Mac Brown returns as My partner in a one night 985 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 3: reunion show for the Ages and will venture into Boston's 986 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:27,520 Speaker 3: North End, the city's oldest residential community that was settled 987 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 3: all the way back in the sixteen thirties, and of 988 00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 3: course it's one of the nation's premiere Italian food destinations. 989 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 3: Will honor the old world tradition by eating at a 990 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:39,720 Speaker 3: place that ends in a bowel looking forward to stopping 991 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 3: by a stream that one of my absolute favorite spots 992 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 3: in this great nation for an experience authentic O and 993 00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:49,280 Speaker 3: nothing says authentic like using board authentico in a super 994 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 3: patronizing way.

Did I catch hook in the background there? 1007 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 1: I think that was? 1008 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 2: It was the sweet sounds of hook. That was what 1009 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 2: the reference was at the beginning. You're doing it, Peter, 1010 00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 2: You're playing with us. 1011 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:46,839 Speaker 1: It's a little weird, wouldn't you say?

I recorded that. 1014 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm going to try to sound like 1015 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 2: a little kid, yeah, like one of the Lost Boys. 1016 00:54:56,800 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 2: And you will never hear that out it because it 1017 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 2: was me saying, I guess you're about to hear that 1018 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:03,360 Speaker 2: audio saying. 1019 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,719 Speaker 1: Like you're plainly this Peter like. It was very bad. 1020 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 1: It's weird. Yeah, So that was the better of the 1021 00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 1: two takes. That would have been the end of the 1022 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: podcast right there. 1023 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:12,320 Speaker 2: That's it. 1024 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: That's it. Yeah, thank you, Adam Amin. Watch his game 1025 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,320 Speaker 1: on Friday night. It's a good one, a more interesting 1026 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: game than I think we ever could have anticipated. We 1027 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 1: got Florida State, as he said, a three, three and 1028 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 1: a half point road favorite at Boston College. I'm just 1029 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:31,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw caution to the wind and go Boston 1030 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:35,760 Speaker 1: College here at home at night after a couple forty burgers. 1031 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:38,880 Speaker 1: This is probably the biggest game I can remember them 1032 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 1: playing in a long time, especially now since Florida State 1033 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 1: looks so gettable. 1034 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to take Boston. It's another long travel 1035 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 2: day situation for Florida, Samon, I don't when they're actually 1036 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:51,319 Speaker 2: getting to Chestnut Hill, but yeah, let's go Boston College here. 1037 00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:53,400 Speaker 2: Their defense has been pretty good. Anthony Brown had a 1038 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 2: huge week last week. There's just there's something strange about 1039 00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 2: that kind of travel as a home dog when when 1040 00:55:58,440 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 2: you're on an uptick. 1041 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go be see all right? Also very quickly 1042 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:06,279 Speaker 1: Saturday at twelve twenty, just to be different, we've got 1043 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: Louisville minus three on the road at Wake, Dan, I'm 1044 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,399 Speaker 1: gonna go Lamar Jackson and the Cardinals. I think they're 1045 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 1: a little too much for Wake. 1046 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I'm gonna take Louisville as well here. I 1047 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,960 Speaker 2: think Wake is you're gonna run on Wake a little bit, 1048 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,800 Speaker 2: and Louisville is going into that mode where they're just 1049 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 2: going to try to get what they can on the ground, 1050 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 2: and I think Louisvie will. 1051 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,320 Speaker 1: Be all right. Saturday, five fourty five in the PM, 1052 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:36,239 Speaker 1: we've got Utah minus three on the road at Oregon, Dan, 1053 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,879 Speaker 1: how are you feeling about your ducks here at home? 1054 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 2: Not wonderful, but better at home with a good defense 1055 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 2: as underdogs than on the road against a Utah team 1056 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 2: who was struggling offensively last week, to say the least 1057 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,320 Speaker 2: against ASU, even with Tyler Huntley back, they just looked 1058 00:56:55,400 --> 00:57:00,360 Speaker 2: completely off Oregon. I guess they're slightly improving on offense. 1059 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 2: Braxton Burmeister, I don't think Justin Herbert will be playing. 1060 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 2: Darren Carrington's coming back to Eugene, of course, kicked off 1061 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 2: the team spring summer whenever that was, and is now 1062 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 2: on Utah and their best receiver. I'm gonna until I 1063 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 2: see Oregon string together drives over and over again. Whatever 1064 00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 2: happens happens. I am going to take their opponent here. 1065 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Utah minus a field goal on the road. 1066 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:26,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna go Utah minus three. 1067 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 2: And then finally, I would say Oregon's probably seventeen to 1068 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 2: twenty points better with Justin Herbert and a help receiving corps. 1069 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, no Utah minus three for me. And then 1070 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:40,960 Speaker 1: finally seven thirty, we've got Tennessee continuing their whirlwind college 1071 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 1: football road tour here one week after getting destroyed by Alabama. 1072 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 1: Now they're on the road against the Kentucky team, and 1073 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 1: Kentucky is actually favored by four and a half. I 1074 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:53,400 Speaker 1: am inclined to go with the Wildcats here at home. 1075 00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not super enthusiastic about Kentucky football, but I'm 1076 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 2: super to We're not enthusiastic about Tennessee football. I'm just 1077 00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Kentucky here win by a touchdowns 1078 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:06,720 Speaker 2: like seventeen to ten. 1079 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 1: Sure, all right, there you have it. A bunch of games, man, 1080 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,520 Speaker 1: we count up how many we did? One, two, three, four, five, six, 1081 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 1: seventy eight. I don't know, like one hundred games here? 1082 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe a solid hondo good week of games. Make 1083 00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: sure you're in front of a TV around three thirty, 1084 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 1: that's when all the bigins are. 1085 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, a usf favored by ten against Houston. Maybe that's interesting. Yes, 1086 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 2: so perhaps in another years Colorado State really like Michael Gallup. 1087 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 2: They're favored by double dits just against air Force. But 1088 00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 2: outside of that, not a huge week. Outside of the 1089 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 2: hugeness of all the games we just spoke of, and 1090 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 2: I just won quick favorite. 1091 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,880 Speaker 1: Please please, you know I'm very anything anything for you. 1092 00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 1: You're my friend.

You looked at the subreddit 1095 00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:02,440 Speaker 1: and it creeped you out, didn't it. 1096 00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 2: I just made me up my game.
