Speaker 4: offense under Paul Johnson. Go dogs, baby.

160
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: Can the backup coach be better than the starters? Because

161
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: it's sure looks that way in Charlottesville.

162
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 4: Somewhere, Wiley Coyote is laughing his ass, Go mean Green.

163
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 2: I graduated from Michigan and my life graduated from Ohio State.

164
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 2: We've been together nine years, and for the first time

165
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 2: in our relationship, I'm sleeping on the couch tonight.

166
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: Here you go, sleeping on the couch. Thank you to

167
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: one and all for calling in giving us a piece

168
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: of their mind here on rivalry week a lively batch

169
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: of reverbs as ever did Simeon Saturday is what I've

170
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: settled on, by the way, like Simeon Rice.

171
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, also it's tech a primate is a Simeon Okay, Yeah.

172
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:16,599
Speaker 1: Was not aware either way. Yeah, it was one of

173
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: those weekends, Dan. We had the of course, the big

174
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: Michigan Ohio State rivalry. We had a lot of calls

175
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: calling in in favor of Michigan or just at least

176
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: talking about that game. The Iron Bowl was unexpectingly close.

177
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: The Bedlam game last night was close. All of the

178
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: headlining matchups that we discussed on the Wednesday show were

179
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: very close. It was a great rivalry week. It was

180
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: a great week of college I was glued to my TV. Yeah,

181
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: from whistle to whistle, I was glued to my TV.

182
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 3: It was great to be a largely impartial person. I

183
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 3: did watch my team win a rivalry game. Your teams

184
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 3: don't fully have those emotional rivals, but for basically everybody

185
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 3: else it was kind of heartbreaking or kind of like

186
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 3: sweat through your shirt and be relieved, because there wasn't

187
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 3: like unless you're a Kentucky fan. If you're Kentucky fan,

188
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 3: you're like, it was great, it was wonderful. They showed

189
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 3: the game in two ADP and I had a wonderful time.

190
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 3: But yeah, they're few and far between instances of I

191
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 3: think fan bases who are either not crazy disappointed or

192
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 3: not just relieved beyond anything they could have imagined. So that,

193
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 3: to me is an exceptional Saturday, Friday, Thursday.

194
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: Oh, it was a great weekend a college football Let's

195
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: start though, with the headliner, with the snow, with the crowd,

196
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: with the steaks. I found it impossible not to just

197
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 1: be fully immersed in the Michigan Ohio State experience, at

198
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: least to the extent that I could from the comfy

199
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: confines of my living room. Yes, this one lived up

200
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: to the hype and much much more. I thought Gus

201
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: Johnson was going to hyperventilate like eight times in this game.

202
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: D always gush Johnson was a perfect guy to call

203
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: Michigan Ohio State. It was clear, I thought from the jump,

204
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: and I typed the center of a ball or discord. Yeah,

205
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: it was clear from the jump that Michigan's game plan

206
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: was working, and it was frankly the exact kind of

207
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 1: game plan that they needed to run in order to

208
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: have any chance of winning this game. Their opening drive,

209
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: if you saw it, was really impressive. They just marched

210
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,719
Speaker 1: down the field. In general, I'd say, even if you

211
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: didn't see the first drive, you don't need any kind

212
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: of great football know how, experience insight to see what

213
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: was going on in this game. You just watched the

214
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: offensive line after the snap for Michigan, and they were

215
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 1: getting a great push off the ball, like two yards

216
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: down the field, a great push off of pretty much

217
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: every snap, certainly in the running game. And I kept

218
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: waiting for that to change throughout the course of the game,

219
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: and it never really did. Michigan ran for almost three

220
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: hundred yards. They had six touchdowns on the ground, five

221
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: of which came from Hassan Haskins, who had one hundred

222
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: and sixty nine I think really tough yards and was

223
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 1: truly the engine that led this offense to forty two points.

224
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 1: And frankly, Dan, it was the same story on the

225
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 1: other side of the ball. Defensively, again, Michigan generated a

226
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: ton of pressure up front. They had CJ. Stroud under

227
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: duress for most of the game. Aid in the Hutchinson,

228
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: the standout lineman, had three sacks. He was in the

229
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: backfield all day long. CJ. Stroud got his He had

230
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: almost four hundred yards passing, but the offense was unbalanced

231
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: because they had to rely so much on the passing game,

232
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: and with Michigan getting pressure on Stroud, with Michigan taking

233
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: away a lot of the downfield stuff and keeping the

234
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: game in front of them, it really put Ohio State's

235
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: offense in a bit of a bind.

236
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: Here it was Harbob Porn. The Michigan offense was Harbob Horn.

237
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 3: The Michigan defense. I mean, look, you go back to Stanford, right,

238
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 3: It's a more modern version of what Jim Harbass succeeded

239
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,319
Speaker 3: with and I guess early on David Shaw succeeded with

240
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 3: at Stanford and controlling the line of scrimmage on both

241
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 3: sides of the ball, and Stanford had those. I think

242
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 3: it was Trent Murphy, you know, there were guys there

243
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 3: at Stanford during his tenure, and sort of the crossover

244
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 3: it was getting after the quarterback and it was five, six,

245
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 3: seven yards at a time. I think the Michigan running

246
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 3: backs Hassan Haskins, Hassan Haskins and Blake harm finished at

247
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 3: about seven and a half yards a carry in this game.

248
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 3: How many third down attempts did Michigan have eight? Were

249
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 3: they five of eight on third down? That they weren't

250
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 3: even getting to third down because they were blowing Ohio

251
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 3: State off the ball? And the big difference to me,

252
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 3: by the way, look and if the pass rush is

253
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 3: incredible for Michigan, the running game, that was able to

254
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 3: control things from the jump, by the way, that Michigan

255
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 3: didn't fall behind fourteen to nothing and clawback in perhaps

256
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 3: a tedious way or something like that speaks volumes to

257
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,959
Speaker 3: the preparation, you know, the offensive coaching room, whatever. But

258
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 3: also that cade McNamara when asked to other than that

259
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: early interception own into triple coverage after Joel Klatt begged

260
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 3: him to throw into the end zone, Like he's got

261
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 3: to take a shot to the end zone. Here it

262
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 3: takes a shot to the enzon quadruble coverage interception. Yeah.

263
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 3: Other than that moment, Kate McNamara, hit on his shots,

264
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 3: hit on his shots downfield, hit on his whatever, third

265
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 3: and seven, completing a nine yard hitch or whatever. That

266
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 3: to me is the difference. And you know, Michigan, how

267
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 3: many penalties did Michigan commit? Two?

268
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 4: Yeah?

269
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 3: Three?

270
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: Compare this to Ohio State who had ten for sixty

271
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: six yards. And there were some big penalties into that ten,

272
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: you know, some costly ones that really did come back

273
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: to bite the buck eyes.

274
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 3: And this is a Michigan team, as we talked about,

275
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 3: even though we had our doubts about them doing enough

276
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 3: to win this game. I think we both took the points,

277
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 3: but had Ohio State winning. If memory serves, The reason

278
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 3: we thought Michigan could hang was they are not an

279
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 3: especially mistake prone team, right, and special teams miscues in

280
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 3: fumbles and interceptions. Right. Kate McNamara for all of his

281
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: lack of a high ceiling doesn't make a ton of mistakes,

282
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: keeps Michigan in the the games and puts them in

283
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 3: a position to win. So Michigan all season long made

284
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 3: winning plays. The question was the firepower and with how

285
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 3: Michigan was able to blow Ohio State off the ball

286
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 3: on both sides of the ball, but especially on offense.

287
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 3: You know, four minutes left, Michigan needs to move the

288
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 3: ball downfield to drain clock. They just keep pushing them around.

289
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 3: It was Michigan ready to play in four quarters, not three,

290
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 3: not three and change four full quarters. It was the depth,

291
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 3: It was the offensive line preparation and health and effort.

292
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 3: And Michigan was is and remains the better team in

293
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one. To win how they did was nothing

294
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 3: short of crazy impressive. And I'm sure Ohio State and

295
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 3: all their fans back to the drawing board, fire everybody.

296
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 3: And they were already going to hire a new defensive

297
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: coordinator obviously with how Carrie Coombs was demoted after the

298
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 3: Oregon game. But I maintain, sometimes very good teams lose

299
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 3: to other very good teams on the road. Sure this

300
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: is not the end of the world for Ohio State CJ.

301
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 3: Stroud will get better, They will get better against the run,

302
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 3: they will play smarter, they will play more efficiently. But

303
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 3: in a year in which they probably had the best

304
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 3: receiving core in the country, they might end up in

305
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 3: the Citrus Bowl.

306
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 4: Right.

307
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 3: If Iowa somehow beats Michigan in the Big Ten championship game,

308
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 3: it does feel like a bit of a wasted year

309
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 3: given the ceiling of Ohio States offense.

310
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. And you know, I'm big on looking

311
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: at box scores, not to give me the full context

312
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: of a game, but just to get a good data point.

313
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: You know, the stats matter, but I think if you

314
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: take a box score in total, it can tell you

315
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: a lot about the story of a game. It's not

316
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: true in all cases, it was true in this one.

317
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: If you hide the scores and look at the box

318
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: score alone and look at what Michigan did Cade McNamara

319
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: thirteen of nineteen. You look at Hassan Haskins twenty eight carries,

320
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: one sixty nine five touchdowns, you can see Michigan did

321
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: what Michigan does. Michigan was true to form in this game,

322
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: and it worked to their credit at work because they

323
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: got the push in the trend. They weren't making costly

324
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: mistakes throughout the course of the game, and Jim Harbaugh

325
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 1: finally gets the monkey off his back.

326
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 3: By the way, Aiden Hutchinson, can we just oh, he's

327
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 3: of dof cap Like? What a year in which the

328
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 3: cle like it's not even a conversation about who has

329
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: the better defensive line and more and scarier defensive line,

330
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 3: even though you know down the middle, Michigan isn't where

331
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 3: Ohio State has been upfront. But for Michigan to have

332
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 3: the game changing rush end and ends in this matchup,

333
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 3: it's novel, it's new, and it was an enormous difference.

334
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: He was in the backfield all day. All day. They

335
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 1: really had no answer for him, and again credit to

336
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: the lines on the Michigan side. Here's where things stand

337
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: now for the Michigan Wolverines. They've won the Big Ten

338
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: East for the first time under Harball, and they are

339
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: headed to the Big Ten championship game to face Iowa.

340
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: We'll talk about the circumstances that landed Iowa in Indianapolis

341
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: here a little bit later once get into the Big Ten.

342
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: But Michigan's about a ten point favorite going into that

343
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: football game. There's obviously a lot of letdown potential coming

344
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: off the win here against Ohio State at home. Iowa

345
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: is many things, but if you make mistakes, Iowa can

346
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: punish you. We've seen it happen a couple times this year.

347
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 3: They forced mistakes. To be clear, They're not just sitting

348
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 3: back and waiting. They force a lot of those mistakes.

349
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: They forced mistakes. I'm curious to see if Michigan will

350
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: jump Alabama because of the game we're about to discuss.

351
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: But your final score forty two to twenty seven a

352
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 1: huge win for the Mazing Blue as they've got their

353
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: season in front of them. Win, they're in and they'll

354
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 1: have a crack at this playoff thing.

355
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:42,479
Speaker 4: HM.

356
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 3: Jody was very confused when Ohio State let Michigan score.

357
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,360
Speaker 3: She's like, wait, hold on, what are they doing?

358
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: What are they doing?

359
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 3: Is this a trick? I was like, no, they just

360
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 3: want clock, they just want time.

361
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 1: So that was the first big game of the day,

362
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 1: the first one that definitely sent a shockwave through the

363
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: college football landscape. This one was very surprising, of course,

364
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the Iron Bowl. Alabama twenty four, Auburn

365
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: twenty two and four overtimes Dan, this game took forever.

366
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 3: It did take a long time. Yeah.

367
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: The headline here, I think is what Auburn's defense did

368
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: to Alabama's offense. Also what Alabama did to itself with

369
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 1: eleven penalties. We can talk about that too. Alabama had

370
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: sixty eight yards of offense in the first half. They

371
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: were out of sync all game, doing large part to

372
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: Auburn's pass rush dominating the Alabama offensive line.

373
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 3: Yep.

374
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: There was also the issue of Jamison Williams getting knocked

375
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 1: out early in the game. He was on punk coverage,

376
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: he went down, tried to make a stop, got booted

377
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: for targeting. So the combination of getting beat in the

378
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: trenches losing your best playmaker, that was just a little

379
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: too much for Alabama to overcome. To be honest, talk

380
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: about a lot about Alabama's crazy depth, but losing Jamison

381
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: Williams definitely seemed to hurt them. They never really got

382
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: in sync. Bryce Young did his part to try and

383
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: get them back in this thing, but this is a

384
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 1: ten to three game until the very last minute when

385
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: Bryce Young pulled off some heroics. Dan, how much of

386
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: this game did you watch and what were your impressions?

387
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: As we're going through this thing because I'm waiting, like

388
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: for it to happen. We've seen it before where a

389
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 1: team got a seven point lead on Alabama and then suddenly, whoosh,

390
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: they just kind of zoom into the lead and it's

391
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: over before you know it. This one that never happened.

392
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: It never materialized here, which caught me off guard.

393
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 3: I watched all of the game. It was a very

394
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 3: frustrating game to watch in that the offenses couldn't stay

395
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 3: on the field, and that was largely because the defenses

396
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 3: really came to play both of these fronts where sensational

397
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 3: Alabama just happens to have more depth as Auburn's ran

398
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 3: out of gas. And I don't know if that's a

399
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 3: recruiting issue, if that's a transfer issue, if that's an

400
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 3: injury issue, if that's an all of the above issue,

401
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 3: but clearly the Auburn defense which came to play upfront

402
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 3: and getting those big stops on third and short, fourth

403
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 3: and short whatever, it's just that you can only do

404
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 3: it for so long and for Bryce Young to drive

405
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 3: one hundred yards, Auburn forced Alabama to win this game.

406
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: They did not give this game away. Now, the overtime

407
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 3: strategy you. I mean, you can talk about whatever, but

408
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 3: Auburn did a great job. It's a backup quarterback in TJ.

409
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 3: Finley who made enough plays and he was under fire.

410
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: The offensive line for Auburn was not great.

411
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,239
Speaker 1: He like couldn't walk at the end.

412
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 3: Dan, I know, I know all of his his pants

413
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 3: seem like they were missing. I know he rolls them

414
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 3: up over his knees, wearing bike shorts out there. But

415
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 3: all the same, an impressive, admirable effort from Auburn at

416
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 3: home that you know, ultimately they can't get that stop

417
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 3: at the end. It was Jacorey Brooks, so I believe

418
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,959
Speaker 3: catches the ball over his shoulder from from not close

419
00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 3: from a row, yeah, from Bryce Young and and Alabama

420
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 3: does enough. I mean, that's your classic clunker. When Alabama

421
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 3: was able to win its clunker. And look, whether it

422
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 3: happened against Arkansas, whether it happened against LSU. Sure you

423
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 3: can win multiple clunkers and end up in the playoff.

424
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 3: That happens. But for them to win this game where

425
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 3: they didn't did they not get on the board until

426
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. They were shut out for three quarters.

427
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 1: Correct, it was ten to three going into that last minute.

428
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: Drive when Bryce Sung led the twelve play ninety seven

429
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: yard drive capped off by the twenty eight yard or

430
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: two ja Corey Brooks.

431
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 3: Yeah right, I'm always terrified with those huge extra points

432
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 3: right where they like have this crazy drive and they

433
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 3: throw the potential game tying touchdown, but they still have

434
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 3: to kick that extra point on the road back. What

435
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 3: could possibly happen poorly in the kicking game for Alabama?

436
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 1: They had problems with a hold earlier.

437
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 3: Yep, they backup holder.

438
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, kicking has not been the strong suit for Alabama. Well,

439
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: you have a bone to pick, well, I do, but

440
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 1: I have some other thoughts. First, I want to give

441
00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: credit where it's due.

442
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 3: Also, by the way, Brian Robinson out like he played well,

443
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,479
Speaker 3: but he left injured late in this one, Like there

444
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 3: are a number of questions now. Luckily Jameis Williams was

445
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 3: ejected first half, correct, first half, so he will be

446
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 3: playing in the SEC Championship game. So that's a bit

447
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 3: of relief, I suppose. But your other thoughts are as follows. Well,

448
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 3: I mean credit where it's due. Auburn took away the

449
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 3: running game. He mentioned Brian Robinson, They took away the

450
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 3: run game. They forced Bryce Young to throw at fifty

451
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 3: one times. It was not an easy day for Bryce Young.

452
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 3: He got the job done in the end, but only

453
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 3: completed about fifty percent of his passes. Auburn was very

454
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 3: good in pass coverage and on the other side of

455
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 3: the ball. You know, we're talking a lot about Auburn here,

456
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 3: and it's going to be overshadowed, I think because of

457
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 3: the closeness of this game, But the Alabama defense deserves

458
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 3: most of the credit.

459
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: For this win. Sure, Auburn scored one offensive touchdown and regulation,

460
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: and that came on a short field after the targeting

461
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,959
Speaker 1: foul against Jamison Williams. I mentioned before. Auburn had one

462
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards one hundred and sixty yards in

463
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: this game.

464
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 3: TJ.

465
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: Finley was sacked six times. He could barely stand by

466
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: the time this thing ended. And Auburn, you know, to

467
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 1: their credit, they kept trying to run it. They wanted

468
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,479
Speaker 1: to have a balanced offense. It didn't really work. I mean,

469
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 1: Albama was really good on defense. Will Anderson was everywhere,

470
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: just a machine. Auburn had a putt ten times. So

471
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: again you look at the box score, you're thinking, hey,

472
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: got to like where we stand here. If you're Alabama,

473
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: but Auburn was really feisty. You were not a fan

474
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 1: of the Alabama offensive line the right side of the way.

475
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: They just kept running at him. They got bull rushed

476
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: every play. Yeah, I felt bad for Bryce Young.

477
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw the quote from the

478
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 3: Alabama offensive side of things where Bryce Young was. I

479
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 3: think he talked about how it was unexpected that Auburn

480
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 3: dropped into so much man in covering Alabama. There are

481
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 3: kind of two and a half ways to play coverage.

482
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 3: You're drop in his own you can drop in a man,

483
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 3: and you can play kind of a matchup zone where

484
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 3: you pass off guys. That's oversimplified, of course, But to

485
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 3: not have a plan, to not have seen that, or

486
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 3: and to not have been able to react to that,

487
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 3: And I don't know if that's a Bright Young thing.

488
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 3: I know, I know that's a Bill O'Brien thing, But

489
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 3: certainly they looked they looked lost on offense, and a

490
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 3: lot of that the credit goes to to Auburn and

491
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 3: the ability to confuse. But what a game.

492
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 2: What a game.

493
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: I want to give a quick shout out to my

494
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: boy Brian Harson. You know I didn't know if he

495
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: talked about this at all in the post game, So

496
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,880
Speaker 1: maybe there was a reason he did what he did. Right,

497
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: Why didn't he go for two in overtime at home?

498
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: Your team is clearly running out of gas at this point,

499
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: your quarterback's on like a wooden leg. At this point,

500
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: you got the home crowd, your hated rival, and a

501
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: chance to go for to and win the game. He

502
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: kicks the extra point.

503
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he kicks the extra point.

504
00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: I know it's the popular thing to do to criticize

505
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 1: as the coach when it comes to two point conversions

506
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: or fourth down conversions or punting or what have you.

507
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: But have some balls, man, what was that you could say?

508
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 3: You want to you would like to inject some courage

509
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 3: into Brian Harrison.

510
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: Come on, man, clearly they had a two point play

511
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: that they could have used. They did that awesome throwback, like, yeah,

512
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: they did a series or two later, you could have

513
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: used that play. Man, What an opportunity, I'm with you,

514
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: What a bailed opportunity for Brian Harrison here in the

515
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: biggest game of his season.

516
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, if you're listening to Ty and Matthew McConaughey,

517
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,199
Speaker 3: you have that green light. You have that green light

518
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 3: opportunity available to you, and I'm with you. I'm with

519
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 3: you to seize opportunities. And given where Auburn's offensive line was,

520
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,239
Speaker 3: where TJ. Finley's health was, given, the opponent at home, right,

521
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 3: Auburn's at home on the ropes like it was, I'm

522
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 3: with you, and there is you answer to a certain

523
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 3: faction of people that are gonna say no, no, you

524
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 3: do you do the right thing, shut up in the game.

525
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 3: I'm with you. But it's it falls on him if

526
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 3: it doesn't work. Whereas they're not gonna they just fired

527
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 3: the lost guy. He's going to a ball one way

528
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 3: or the other. I know, but there's other circumstances, so

529
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 3: come on, they're not going to fire him. But but

530
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 3: things things look it's Auburn, Oh things go for two, man,

531
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: go for two. I'm with you. I'm with you. But

532
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 3: there is that old fashioned line of thinking, you hang around,

533
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 3: you play not to lose.

534
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm this was the only thing, maybe the only thing,

535
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: the two point decision that could get Gary Danielson to

536
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: stop talking about tank bigsby not going out of balance.

537
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was unfortunate anyway.

538
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 1: Auber six and six in year one, they're gonna go

539
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: to a bowl. Good for them, and Bama goes to

540
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 1: the SEC Championship game. They're gonna be about a six

541
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: and a half seven point dog against Georgia next weekend.

542
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: We'll see what the status is for Brian Robinson. Alabama

543
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: gets a job done four overtimes as they go to

544
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: penalty kicks in this new overtime system. Twenty four to

545
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 1: twenty two is your final yes. And then at night

546
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: there was the Bedlam Game. Another one. I'm gonna lose

547
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: my voice here.

548
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 3: By the way, find a sports writer who didn't tweet

549
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 3: out some version of truly badlum truly goal.

550
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty seven to thirty three. A phenomenal game and

551
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: had a little something for everybody. Whatever you're into. You like,

552
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: playmaking on offense.

553
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: We got that. Muffs muffs, muffs, muffs, muff.

554
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: Good special teams, bad special team, they got all of it.

555
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

556
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: The brand of crazy plays and miscues that defines a

557
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: rivalry were all on display, both teams trying to hang

558
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: on for dear life. In the second half. He had

559
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: them off punts, the fumbles, the interceptions, all that stuff.

560
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: In the second half, the end. I watched this game live.

561
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: I was glued to my TV. You watched it, I'm

562
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: assuming in most of its entirety this morning after your

563
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: bowling exhibition last evening. What was your takeaway on the rewatch.

564
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 3: On the bowling or on the rewatch now on the

565
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 3: rewatch of this game, because I nearly had a turkey

566
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 3: in two separate instances. My my takeaway was what a

567
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 3: bonker is entertaining first half and I always get a

568
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 3: little bit sad and exhilarated on another level when we

569
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 3: have special teams miscues and turnovers and came away crazy

570
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 3: impressed by Oklahoma State's ability to adjust on defense. Yeah,

571
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 3: Oklahoma doesn't get in the end zone an offense in

572
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 3: the second half, correct, Nope, Nope. So to get out

573
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 3: foxed by Oklahoma States defense is I mean, there's no

574
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 3: shame in that. It's an excellent defense. But we had

575
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 3: talked about was it Brennan Presley who is the returner

576
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 3: for Oklahoma State. We had talked about him heading into

577
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 3: the Iowa State game the one loss for Oklahoma State

578
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 3: and that he could be an X factor because of

579
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 3: how poorly Iowa State plays on special teams. He has

580
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 3: a sensational both a sensational return for a touchdown and

581
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 3: he also has a pretty costly ultimately not for a

582
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 3: loss miss Q as well. I just Spencer Sanders made

583
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: winning plays. He made mistakes, but Oklahoma State was a

584
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 3: team better prepared to make winning plays. Be it the

585
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 3: experience at quarterback, be it the ability on defense to

586
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 3: adjust and get stops for Oklahoma State to play as

587
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 3: well as they did in Oklahoma to make the mistakes

588
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 3: they did. Now, Oklahoma State won this game, but the

589
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 3: Sooner mistakes on a day in which they had crazy

590
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 3: runs in which they put themselves in position to win

591
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 3: this game on multiple occasions. I again this my hat

592
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 3: tipping has been the theme of the show so far.

593
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 3: But Oklahoma State to hold on and win like they

594
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 3: did awesome for them, an awesome experience and a truly

595
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 3: heinous one if you're a Sooner fan.

596
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure this one is from ESPN's stats and Information

597
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: Dan the Sooners faced their most pressured dropbacks since ESPN

598
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: began tracking the stat ten years ago, twenty six pressured dropbacks, and.

599
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 3: That was that was the story early on with Spencer

600
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,479
Speaker 3: Rattler two that people were very quick to blame him,

601
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 3: and he did make mistakes, and we talked about the

602
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 3: lack of explosion plays and the running game not being

603
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 3: there early on in the season. Story is, the offensive

604
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 3: line is not where it's been these pens now, and

605
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 3: it was supposed to be maybe the best offensive line

606
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 3: in college football going into the season and just has

607
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 3: not performed in this one six times cale, Williams was sacked,

608
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 3: and that's an accomplishment because he's shifty as hell. Yeah,

609
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 3: so to bring him down six times to pressure them

610
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 3: all game.

611
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 1: You know, the Oklahoma offense, despite that near comeback, as

612
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: he said, didn't score at all in the second half,

613
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: and Jim Knowles got the job done, just brought him

614
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: in waves, kept bringing the pressure, and that definitely took

615
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma offense out of sink cale. Williams I thought

616
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: did okay all things considered, sure, especially with his lack

617
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: of consistent playmaking on the road in this spot, specifically

618
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 1: to make plays. He's a good player. He's a good player.

619
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: He didn't have a whole lot open downfield either, so

620
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: he was doing his best to try and buy time

621
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: until somebody could get separation. But Oklahoma State did a

622
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: good job keeping pass coverage very tight. I want to

623
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: credit Spencer Sanders too. You know I dumped on him

624
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: a couple times throughout the course of the season. I

625
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: don't think it's unfair to say that he's been inconsistent,

626
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: because he has at times. But I will say that

627
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: the box score does not do him justice in this

628
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: game because he was a straight up dude. I hope

629
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: he's in our due alert segment at the end. He

630
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: made some great plays with his legs. He was the

631
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: team's leading rusher. He looked confident throwing the ball. He

632
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: had two picks, like one of them was his fault.

633
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: I guess he's got a long release. He telgrass where

634
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: he's going with it. That's not great. It may not

635
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: be great if they played originally of the playoffs. But

636
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: he got the job. There's a big game, big home spot.

637
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 1: It was clear he came to play. He looked confident,

638
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: He looked agile, mobile, hostile in this game, and they

639
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: get the job done. All that being said, Caleb Williams

640
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: still had a chance to steal it away from the

641
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 1: Pokes late. He couldn't get the job done as Oklahoma

642
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: State wins. And now it's an interesting scenario for them.

643
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: They're eleven to one. They head into the Big Twelve

644
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: title game, They're going to go against Baylor again. They

645
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: will be a six and a half point favorite in

646
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: that ball game. I think they win and they're in.

647
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: I think that's what it comes down to. Oklahoma State,

648
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: in my view, gets the nod over Notre Dame. They'll

649
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: have two top ten wins to close out the season.

650
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: In the event that they beat Baylor. It'd be hard

651
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: to leave them out in that scenario.

652
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 3: But Baylor with a I think a backup quarterback right

653
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 3: it's shape and again I.

654
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: Would assume so unless scary Bohannon comes back. But you

655
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: have to like Oklahoma State chances of getting through to

656
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,239
Speaker 1: the playoff. On the Oklahoma side, you know, there were

657
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: rumors floating around yesterday on Twitter that Lincoln Riley might

658
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: be off to LSU. He put a pretty quick end

659
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: to that in his postgame comments, saying he's not leaving

660
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 1: for LSU. So Oklahoma's gonna have a long offseason to

661
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 1: think about ten and two. Ten and two is still

662
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 1: a pretty good record, but I don't think it's out

663
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: of line to say that it's a disappointing ten and

664
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: two they definitely expected to be playing for the Big

665
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: twelve title, if not the playoff.

666
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 3: Gary Bohannon was questionable against Texas Tech ultimately didn't play,

667
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 3: so perhaps his status is more intriguing now. In the

668
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 3: from the Big Twelve Championship game, you have to think

669
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 3: that they rested him thinking that giving him another week

670
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 3: would be uh would be beneficial.

671
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: And let me quick mention Cincinnati here. It may not

672
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: have been one of the headlining matchups of the weekend.

673
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: They played this one on Friday, but it is significant

674
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: because Cincinnati keeps winning. They won thirty five to thirteen

675
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: over ECU, a good ECU team that was seven and

676
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,479
Speaker 1: four going into this one. It was never close since

677
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: he led twenty one to three at half. They had

678
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: a nice block field goal for a touchdown in the

679
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, so flashing a little bit of skills on

680
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: special teams, Luke Fickel, congrats to him. Twelve and oho season.

681
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 1: They have eleven and one Houston on deck in the

682
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: American Championship Game next week. Houston crushed Yukon for what

683
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 1: it was worth, but they had previously clinched their spot

684
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 1: in that title game a couple weeks ago. I guess

685
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 1: since he's going to be about a ten point favorite.

686
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 3: Man eleven and one Houston. Dana Holgerson very quietly and

687
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 3: very quietly good on defense, which is new for ru Go. Yeah. Well,

688
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 3: I had some good defense at the West Virginia, but

689
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 3: it's not his reputation. For sure.

690
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: This will be a significant game because I think we

691
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: have arrived at the point where since he wins there in.

692
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, the assumption with the lack of faith right now

693
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 3: in Alabama up front on offense and health issues whatever,

694
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,280
Speaker 3: going against Georgia, there is a presumed second loss for Alabama,

695
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 3: and so Cincinnati in an ideal place all things considered.

696
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 3: You're right.

697
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: Let's jump over to the Big Ten Dan, Yeah, and

698
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: I want to talk a little bit about the scenarios

699
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 1: that led us to a Iowa appearance man in the

700
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: Big Ten championship game. Iowa wins the Big Ten West,

701
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 1: so first and foremost. They won their game on Friday

702
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: against Nebraska twenty eight to twenty one.

703
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 6: God.

704
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: It was the final act of an impressive season of

705
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: losing very close games for Nebraska. They blew a fifteen

706
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 1: point lead in the final twenty minutes. Iowa scored twenty

707
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: two unanswered. They won this game by seven. It's the

708
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: first time in eighty two freaking years, Dan, that a

709
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: team has lost nine games by single digits, which is amazing,

710
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: just almost impossible to do that. So you feel bad

711
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: for him. It's an amazing stat. I think this means

712
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 1: we get a full off season of chatter about how

713
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: you know Nebraska was just a heartbeat away for nine

714
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,359
Speaker 1: to three. Could have done.

715
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 3: Nebraska is not fluent in winning, right. There's no Rosetta

716
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 3: stone during a season to learn how to win. The

717
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 3: special teams is so atrocious. The ability to close the

718
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 3: game is so atrocious. The ability to maintain a lead

719
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 3: is so atrocious. They're not fluent. It's like they were

720
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 3: dropped on Mars and expected to speak Martian and have

721
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 3: no idea, have no idea where to even begin to

722
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 3: look this is. They are not surrounded by teachers and

723
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 3: so it was an impressive opening salvo for Nebraska. What

724
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 3: did I texted you?

725
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 4: What was it?

726
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 3: The sequence? Punt blocked slash cot for a touchdown, hand off, exchange, fumble,

727
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 3: safety three and out, game sealing interception. Now Slogan's mothers right.

728
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 3: He has not been in these spots he's not been

729
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 3: in these moments. But again, it's a fluency thing for Nebraska.

730
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: Looked pretty good.

731
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 3: I thought Logan speed definitely looked good early on. Yeah,

732
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,440
Speaker 3: he completed a bunch of passes downfield. Look comfortable.

733
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: But he's fast, he can run.

734
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 3: I mean Alex Padia got benched in this game, did

735
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 3: he not?

736
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 4: Yeah?

737
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: The Padilla experiment, the Padilla flotilla. Mm hm, I don't know, Yeah,

738
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 1: I don't. It's taking on water. I don't know if

739
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna it's gonna make it to Indy. But you know, Iowa,

740
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 1: despite all its limitations and despite all the duncan we've

741
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 1: done on the Hawkeyes as of late, we both picked

742
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: him in this game first off. But Kirk Farence finishes

743
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 1: with ten wins again. It's the seventh time Kirk Farnce

744
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: has done a ten win season. They win, They winning, though,

745
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: isn't it?

746
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:46,879
Speaker 3: Isn't that what it is? Aren't they just like these

747
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 3: opposite teams that like Nebraska has flash and does good things,

748
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 3: and Iowa it struggles mightily on one side of the ball.

749
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 3: But chicken wire, duct tape, some putty, it's tortoise and hair.

750
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 1: It's here. It totally is kudos to Iowa for getting

751
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 1: the job done, winning getting the Hero's Trophy over Nebraska

752
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: twenty eight to twenty one year final. They go to

753
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 1: the Big Ten title game because Wisconsin lost by ten

754
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: on the road at Minnesota. They lost the Paul Bunyansacs game.

755
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 1: If you covered up the score. I talked about the

756
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 1: box score thing before. If you covered up the score

757
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: and just looked at the box score, you're going to

758
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: see that Graham Mertz through at thirty eight times. And

759
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 1: if you see Graham Mertz throwing at thirty eight times,

760
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: you know something went wrong. Run, you know something went wrong,

761
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 1: And in this case it did because Minnesota stop Braylen Allen. Yeah,

762
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 1: Wisconsin has been doing really well as of late, largely

763
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 1: on the legs on the back of seventeen year old

764
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 1: Braylen Allen. He had forty seven yards of this game. Hm,

765
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: he has forty seven yards. Graham Mertz has to throw

766
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: at thirty eight times. Great things don't happen when Graham

767
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: Mertz has to throw it thirty eight times. Wisconsin did

768
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 1: not have an offensive touchdown in this game, so Minnesota

769
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: came to play. They stopped the run, force the pass.

770
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: They took the Badgers out of their element, and they

771
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 1: got a strong performance out of Tanner Morgan in the

772
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: second half, sure, like game manager extraordinary. Tanner Morgan led

773
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,879
Speaker 1: three scoring drives got Minnesota to eight and four, which

774
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: was very quiet. Speaking of quiet outcomes for a season,

775
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: a quiet eight and four outcome from Minnesota sure knock

776
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: Wisconsin out of the Big Ten West title spot and

777
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,240
Speaker 1: they send Iowa to Indy to square off against Michigan

778
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 1: next week.

779
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 3: Minnesota being an Illinois and Bowling Green loss away from

780
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 3: ten and two. First of all, not to you say

781
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 3: a quiet eight and four, there were wins left on

782
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 3: that table to go to not go ten and two

783
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 3: because of Illinois and Bowling Green is insane. But otherwise

784
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 3: a crazy impressive performance. I've been using that phrase to

785
00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 3: say crazy impressive. But Joe Rossi and the Josh he's

786
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 3: done with that defense the entire season, basically the entire

787
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 3: season has been terrific. They fully stop, like you mentioned,

788
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 3: Braylan Allen, and it is now of my opinion. It

789
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 3: is now my opinion. I am of the opinion that

790
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 3: given the last two years, and I write off a

791
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 3: little bit of twenty twenty. Of course, but if Paul

792
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,320
Speaker 3: Chris does not make wholesale changes to this offense in

793
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 3: the off season, Wisconsin's an unserious program. Wisconsin's not serious

794
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 3: about evolving, improving, adapting. And my belief is that Wisconsin

795
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 3: is a big time program. But if they are not

796
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 3: re examining what they do on offense, now, keep your

797
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 3: identity of being a power run team, but how you

798
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 3: do it, why you do it, when you do things,

799
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 3: what your identity is in terms of play calling unsious program.

800
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 3: If they are not making changes. I'm not saying fire

801
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,919
Speaker 3: this guy, fire that guy, but back to the drawing board.

802
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 3: Because the Wisconsin offense this year in bigger games has

803
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 3: been a nightmare. There's no reason Wisconsin shouldn't be competing

804
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 3: with schools like Michigan and Notre Dame and Minnesota at

805
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 3: the end of the year and there they are heading

806
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 3: the wrong direction as a program right now, and so

807
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 3: they need to stop that and get ahead of where

808
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 3: things are going. If not, okay, be a seven and

809
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 3: five team, an eight four, that's fine. If that's if

810
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 3: that's who you think you are, make peace with it.

811
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 3: And let's stop talking about Wisconsin as anything more than that.

812
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 1: Wisconsin loses, big loss. Yeah, the acts goes back to

813
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: Minnesota elsewhere in the Big Ten. I'll just rifle through

814
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 1: these scores here. We can circle back as needed. Michigan

815
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: State thirty to twenty seven over Penn State in the

816
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 1: Snow Bowl. Had a bunch of guys out with the flu.

817
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 1: Still Penn State loss, which we can discuss. Illinois forty

818
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: seven to fourteen over Northwestern. At one point in this

819
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: game I typed into our for ball or discord that

820
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: I thought Illinois might get to seventy. Just minimal resistance

821
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: from the Wildcats in this one, and Maryland gets ball

822
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 1: eligible by forty to sixteen margin. Big games by to

823
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 1: Leah Tungavi Looaung High and Fleet Davis. Maryland powers its

824
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,600
Speaker 1: offense to its sixth win of the season. Where do

825
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 1: you want to start, man?

826
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 3: Obviously Illinois. Illinois is on on a fast track to

827
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 3: being like leftover ribs in your teeth, like you just

828
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 3: can't shake them. You just you don't want any Like,

829
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,840
Speaker 3: oh man, we're gonna have to bring out the good.

830
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: Five and seven, five and seven for Illinois. Yeah, they

831
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 1: don't make a Bowl, but they beat Nebraska, they beat

832
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: Penn State, they beat Minnesota and they could have beaten Perdue.

833
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: I was like a thirteen to nine clunker of a.

834
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,320
Speaker 3: Look, it's and it's not Brebulama's roster. It's just not.

835
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 1: It's not as offensive line.

836
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 3: We know that, correct. He doesn't take any responsibility what

837
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 3: the offensive line does. No Illinois is I mean, especially

838
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 3: with how they ran the ball. Yes, I mean it's Northwestern.

839
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:55,879
Speaker 3: But Josh McCray is a really fun back to watch

840
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 3: if you haven't done. I don't think he led the

841
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,080
Speaker 3: team in rushing yesterday, but he is. He's shifting and

842
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 3: runs hard, and so he's been fun to watch. And

843
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 3: the bigger picture with the big ten, aside from of

844
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 3: course Michigan beating Ohio State and the implications of Iowa

845
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,760
Speaker 3: winning and Minnesota winning, as it relates to the conference

846
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 3: championship game in India in a few days, Michigan State

847
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 3: in the snow, it was there were flurries in ann Arbor,

848
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:22,360
Speaker 3: but in East Lansing this was snow. You were actually

849
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,320
Speaker 3: worried because Michigan State was wearing green on green, and

850
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 3: it turned out the Penn State white on white was

851
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,840
Speaker 3: the bigger issue in terms of clarity of watching. I

852
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 3: just I mean speaking of like Minnesota being what Illinois

853
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 3: and bowling Green away from ten and two? Do you

854
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 3: know what Penn State is? How far away Penn State

855
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,240
Speaker 3: is from going ten and two with the nine overtime

856
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 3: game against Illinois, with not being able to capitalize on

857
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 3: a short field at the end of that Michigan game

858
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 3: and then just handing the ball back to Michigan State

859
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 3: on fourth and ones, a game in which Shaan Clifford

860
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 3: actually threw the ball well in the snow. This was

861
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 3: an offense that was able to move the ball in

862
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 3: pretty horrid conditions in East Lands and I think it

863
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 3: was two separate fourth and ones at midfield Penn State

864
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,320
Speaker 3: and look they pinned Michigan State right, They made Michigan

865
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 3: State drive ninety nine yards Michigan State did on one

866
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 3: of those. Again, this is situational football. I don't know

867
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 3: if it's a mycure such thing. I don't know if

868
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 3: if Sean Clifford told the coaching staff, my hands are frozen,

869
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,479
Speaker 3: I can't catch a snap, I can't do anything. Maybe

870
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 3: that's the case. Doesn't seem to be the case though,

871
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 3: with how he was playing generally yesterday, and we can

872
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 3: talk about that horrid scramble as well near the end

873
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 3: of the game, but not a great decision. But why

874
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 3: play football if you have fourth and one in a

875
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 3: huge game at the end of the season against I

876
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 3: don't know if Michigan State's rival, but it's a huge game.

877
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,480
Speaker 3: It's a ranked team, and Penn State has that opportunity

878
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 3: to keep drives alive and move the ball. I know

879
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,800
Speaker 3: that the offensive line hasn't been good, you know, clearing

880
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 3: lanes for yesterday it was cavan Lee. But you don't

881
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:55,359
Speaker 3: have like an offensive GA. You don't have a video

882
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 3: coordinator scouring college football for largely effective fourth and short

883
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,759
Speaker 3: play and have that at your disposal to just sort

884
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 3: of run an RPO where you flip it to a

885
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 3: tight end or hit Jahan Dotson at a slant or

886
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 3: you know, have a counter what you don't have that

887
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 3: on fourth and one. I use the word unserious to

888
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 3: talk about Wisconsin. What Penn State did offensively this year

889
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 3: indicates to me that they are not ready to make

890
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 3: You know, you were criticizing Brian Harson the kinds of

891
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 3: decisions and the kinds of winning decisions that are needed

892
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 3: to justify this kind of and it's not even a

893
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 3: financial investment, it's an overall investment in James Franklin being

894
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 3: the future of this program.

895
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 1: What man, it's it's a disappointing season. They were seven

896
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 1: and five, and it was seven and five. I think

897
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 1: based largely on small margins. You know, you look at

898
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,280
Speaker 1: the season and I don't think you can really point

899
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 1: with any great confidence to any one thing that was

900
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: terribly wrong. Now, the running game. We've talked nauseing about

901
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 1: the running game. The running game is not where it

902
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,439
Speaker 1: needs to be. It did get better as the season

903
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 1: we're on, But you know, outside of that, they're pretty

904
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,840
Speaker 1: good on defense. I think Sean Clifford win healthy, was

905
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,840
Speaker 1: pretty good through the ball pretty well. Johan Dotson was

906
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 1: a superstar, will be a first round draft pick. So

907
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 1: there's a lot to like there. But you're talking about

908
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:13,240
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff on the margins.

909
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,800
Speaker 3: When you're talking about an Illinois team on the margins,

910
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 3: a Michigan State pass defense on the margins, you know, like.

911
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 1: This game was a good microcosm for what they've been

912
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: doing this year. Special teams issues, they had problems on

913
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 1: short yardage. You know, coaching decisions and cases sometimes sets

914
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 1: them behind the eight ball. So, yeah, I understand if

915
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 1: people are going to question the James Franklin extension. I

916
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: get it. It is a disappointing campaign, right.

917
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 3: You know, by the way, don't look at that total salary,

918
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 3: don't look at that seventy five number.

919
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: A three year contract.

920
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 3: It's just a tiny extension, but it's an extension.

921
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 4: Yeah.

922
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,839
Speaker 1: So Penn State's got some soul searching to do here

923
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 1: in the offseason. They finished seven to five to go

924
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,280
Speaker 1: to a bowl game. I don't know who they're projected

925
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: to play. And if you're Michigan State, look, I mean

926
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 1: we're talking a lot about the Penn State thing, but

927
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: was this not the ultimate exercise in Michigan State disrespect

928
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: because they won the game at home with like twenty

929
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 1: guys out, twenty guys out because of the flu? Yep,

930
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 1: and they go ten and two.

931
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, the last Ohio State was not indicative of a

932
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,240
Speaker 3: team ready to secure a playoff bit No, but whatever your.

933
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 1: Opinionner of Michigan State ten and two with losses to

934
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:25,720
Speaker 1: a pretty good Purdue team.

935
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 3: And not in pretty fashion and then yeah, destroyed by

936
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,879
Speaker 3: hostate whatever. Who cares. Michigan State was a good team,

937
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 3: had a good season is going to finish in the

938
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 3: in the top fifteen. Yeah, after the down years that

939
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,440
Speaker 3: they've had, after the completely listless offenses, they have one

940
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 3: of the most electric running backs in the country and

941
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 3: an above average quarterback. I don't know, sorry, throw some

942
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 3: green and white confetti in the air. This season was

943
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 3: a huge success. Oh and they and they just completely

944
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 3: destroy Michigan Hearts in a win. It's a huge success.

945
00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 1: What conference do you want to go to next? Let's

946
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 1: go to the ACC. ACC is wild. Let's go to

947
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 1: the ACC. So congrats to wake Forest, putting my hands together.

948
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 1: Wake Forest, by virtue of their forty one to ten

949
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 1: destruction of Boston College, is officially your ACC Atlantic Division champion.

950
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,240
Speaker 1: They finished with a record of ten and two. Incredible

951
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 1: see incredible season for Dave Clawson. It snaps Clemson's six

952
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 1: year streak of winning the ACC Atlantic. So it's a

953
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 1: big deal for the wake Forest program and it's significant

954
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 1: in college football. I think you got to give credit

955
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 1: to Wake Forest here. You got to give credit to

956
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 1: them for taking care of business. They were only a

957
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:44,879
Speaker 1: what a four and a half point favorite or something

958
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 1: going into this game, so they've been dealing with a

959
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: disrespect thing all year. They don't play a whole lot

960
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 1: of defense in this one. Actually, they did a pretty

961
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:52,880
Speaker 1: good job playing defense.

962
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, do you know how hard it

963
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 3: is to score only ten points against the wake Forest

964
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 3: defense at home? Is the BC offense just broken? I

965
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,319
Speaker 3: didn't watch this game in detail, but they had filed

966
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 3: er covid, did they not?

967
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 4: Well?

968
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 1: They had nineteen yards of passing in this game.

969
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 3: This is a broken offense. I'm gonna go back and

970
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 3: watch this game. I mean quickly, but I'm gonna go

971
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:14,800
Speaker 3: back and watch to see exactly what happened.

972
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:19,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, Wake Forest forced three turnovers and BC had nineteen

973
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 1: yards of passing all day. It was never close, it

974
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: was It was never close. So Wake wins ten and two.

975
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 1: Kudos to them. They've got pit Next week in the

976
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,840
Speaker 1: ACC Championship game BC, there will be a post mortem

977
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 1: on BC. It didn't help that filed your covid got

978
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: hurt early with the injury. But six and six. The

979
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: random factoid about BC that I think Warren's mentioning as

980
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 1: we get into our bowl game, yet to be determined

981
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:52,279
Speaker 1: bowl game, BC did not beat a team with a

982
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 1: winning record all year. Okay, so six and six, you

983
00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,640
Speaker 1: win the games are supposed to. But bear that in

984
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,320
Speaker 1: mind when it comes to some of the cross divisional

985
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 1: and cross conference stuff that we're going to find here

986
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 1: in bowl season. Yeah, against better teams, BC is not

987
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 1: necessarily been at its best.

988
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 3: No, and as soon as BC if they do win

989
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 3: nine games, Jeff Hafley is gone, gone.

990
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:19,319
Speaker 4: Right.

991
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, good for Wake. Wake somehow loses two games to

992
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 3: ACC teams, but only one of them counts. Only one

993
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:27,200
Speaker 3: of them counts as a conference loss with the North

994
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,720
Speaker 3: Carolina non conference scheduling. I don't know if that affects

995
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 3: things in terms of a tiebreaker, but man, it's it's

996
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 3: cool Wake given given their depths to where they were

997
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 3: before Dave Claus and to win the Atlantic and take

998
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 3: advantage of a down year for Clemson, even losing to Clemson,

999
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 3: getting getting the job done, taking care of business. Awesome story.

1000
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 1: Pit one by a thirty one to fourteen margin over Syracuse.

1001
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,920
Speaker 1: Four more touchdown passes for Kenny Pickett. Two went to

1002
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,760
Speaker 1: Jordan Addison, who hmm is just a monster.

1003
00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1004
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:00,960
Speaker 3: Cover receivers for pet yeah thankyah cover and Pitt ran

1005
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:03,400
Speaker 3: the ball really well, which was important because that'll continue

1006
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 3: to open things up. As Pitt looks to I think

1007
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,879
Speaker 3: they have the clear road to a New Year six game.

1008
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:11,800
Speaker 3: I think they'll be favored against wake I don't know

1009
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 3: if you see an early line here, but with how

1010
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 3: complete Pitt looks, with the experience that they have with

1011
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 3: Kenny Pickett, if he's able to limit the mistakes they're

1012
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 3: they're in prime position to go to whatever the Orange Bowl,

1013
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 3: wherever the ACC champion will end up.

1014
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got Pitt right now at about a four

1015
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:32,399
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite over Wake Forest in that game.

1016
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: We'll see what it breaks as a little bit later today,

1017
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: Clemson thirty to nothing over South Carolina. We had NC

1018
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: State in a fun one over North Carolina thirty four

1019
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 1: to thirty on Friday night.

1020
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:48,799
Speaker 3: Unless you're unless you're a tar Heel fan, unless you're

1021
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:52,280
Speaker 3: tart up nine with two minutes left tough, you're probably

1022
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,800
Speaker 3: feeling decent, probably feeling decent, and then like all we

1023
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 3: have to do is, you know, have a safety rotate

1024
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 3: over playing zone. That's all I mean, that's that's Day

1025
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 3: one stuff. Not necessarily, not necessarily, where do you want

1026
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 3: to go of the remaining games? I mean, Clemson just

1027
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,240
Speaker 3: ran all over South Carolina.

1028
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 1: That wasn't Kila, that was you know, after all that,

1029
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:16,520
Speaker 1: after all that, all the hand ringing, Clemson's nine and three.

1030
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: They're going to get to ten and three after the

1031
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 1: bowl right now, likely Stu Mandel's got him in the

1032
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: cheese At Bowl against k State. They will destroy KSE

1033
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 1: State if they.

1034
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,280
Speaker 3: Play case in Orlando, I believe.

1035
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so you gotta feel good about them getting

1036
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 1: the ten wins. Kudos to South Carolina. Look, they weren't

1037
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 1: gonna win this game. We knew they weren't going to

1038
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 1: win this game.

1039
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 3: Don't don't give me kudos to South Carolina for getting

1040
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:38,239
Speaker 3: shut out in a bowl game.

1041
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 1: No kudos.

1042
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 3: I know they went or in their rivalry game. Excuse me, but.

1043
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, kudos to South Carolina for getting to a bowl game.

1044
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,839
Speaker 1: I know, I know. I can't begin to emphasize how

1045
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: impossible it seemed at the start of the year. I've

1046
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 1: said it a thousand times. Now Stu's got South Carolina

1047
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,240
Speaker 1: for what it's worth against NC State in the Duke's

1048
00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 1: Male Bowl, which would be interesting matchup.

1049
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,080
Speaker 3: I can't I can't believe that. If you're I mean,

1050
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,919
Speaker 3: you're right, you're absolutely right that they got to bowl eligibility.

1051
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 3: And look it's Eastern Illinois, East Carolina, Troy and Vandy

1052
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:11,800
Speaker 3: where there they get to four and four then or

1053
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 3: foign Yeah that was four and four, right, and then

1054
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 3: Florida and Auburn. If you told him before the season started,

1055
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 3: like South Carolina's getting bowl eligible and they don't have

1056
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,880
Speaker 3: a quarterback, No, no, no, they just don't. And the

1057
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 3: guy presume starter, he's art, it doesn't play, and they'd

1058
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 3: beat Florida and Auburn and get to a bowl game.

1059
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:32,840
Speaker 3: You're a South Carolina fan, ty, you're right, you're thrilled.

1060
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:33,440
Speaker 3: You're thrilled.

1061
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely thrilled. The NC State thing real quick, you

1062
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,680
Speaker 1: mentioned it. But two touchdowns in twenty six seconds for

1063
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 1: NC State. Good game by Devin Leary. Devin Leary's been

1064
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 1: lights out pretty much the whole back half of the season.

1065
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:51,719
Speaker 1: Here very quietly. Thirty five touchdowns on the season, that

1066
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:55,800
Speaker 1: passes Philip Rivers for the single season record for the

1067
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 1: wolf Pack. They finished nine and three, which I think

1068
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,359
Speaker 1: you'll take that. I know they had their sites set

1069
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:04,839
Speaker 1: a little bit higher, but a nine to three finish

1070
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:08,640
Speaker 1: for Dave Dorn's a good job. UNC going six and six.

1071
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:12,960
Speaker 1: You know they're going to have to adjust to life

1072
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 1: after Sam Howell, just as Sam Howe had to adjust

1073
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 1: to life after four of his guys went pro. I

1074
00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 1: don't know what happens next with UNC. I know recruiting

1075
00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:24,480
Speaker 1: has been very strong for back Brown, but definitely a

1076
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 1: transition year coming in twenty one.

1077
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,920
Speaker 3: Did you see that? I think it was Spencer Hall,

1078
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,879
Speaker 3: said Mac Brown in his puffy jacket, watching his team

1079
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 3: choke away a clear win, looking like like a Scottish

1080
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:40,480
Speaker 3: coach who's about to get relegated, like a soccer coach. Yeah.

1081
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 3: I was just like, man, poor mac Brown cannot hold

1082
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,360
Speaker 3: on to a lead. Yeah, and it was.

1083
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:45,800
Speaker 4: It was.

1084
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,319
Speaker 3: It was a good enough performance with Josh down set

1085
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 3: a record for North Carolina. Yeah, going back, you know,

1086
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,759
Speaker 3: fifteen years or something like that. They ran the ball. Well,

1087
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 3: it was do we now have a British and a

1088
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 3: Briton at running back in college football?

1089
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:01,360
Speaker 1: British for or we have a British?

1090
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 3: Well wasn't that who is the leading rusher for North

1091
00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 3: Carolina in this game?

1092
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:06,319
Speaker 6: Oh?

1093
00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:08,040
Speaker 3: Wasn't it British Brooks?

1094
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 6: Oh? Yeah?

1095
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was British Brooks. And we've got Britain Brown

1096
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,640
Speaker 3: at UCLA. All right, I'm just saying for all you

1097
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:20,759
Speaker 3: uh New England people, that's that's that's a nothing deal.

1098
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,600
Speaker 3: NC State hell of a hell of a way to

1099
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 3: come back in this game, to go downfield, to be aggressive,

1100
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:31,600
Speaker 3: and now the it's what the the Tri State area

1101
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 3: is the cradle of quarterbacks in the ACC. Between Kenny Pickett,

1102
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 3: New Jersey's Kenny Pickett, Connecticut's Tyler van dem and is

1103
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 3: is Devin Leary, also from New Jersey. I believe he

1104
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:48,240
Speaker 3: is so and so the cradle of quarterbacks sick So yeah, Sicklerville,

1105
00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:51,719
Speaker 3: New Jersey. When's timber Creek High. So there you go,

1106
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,800
Speaker 3: as we all predicted the other crative quarterbacks in the

1107
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,000
Speaker 3: Trist's area. But yeah, awesome, friends, he stayed a very

1108
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 3: successful season, could get to ten wins, and yeah, the

1109
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,360
Speaker 3: ACC st all over the place. I don't know if

1110
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 3: Dino Babers is keeping his job. I sort of read

1111
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 3: somewhere that probably needed to go to a bowl game.

1112
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:09,439
Speaker 3: And even though the offense took a step forward, Yeah

1113
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 3: we'll see Virginia Tech.

1114
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:13,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to talk about them next. Toy

1115
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: nalliantly got that big stop twenty nine to twenty four.

1116
00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:20,400
Speaker 1: They held the Who's to three points in the second half.

1117
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,760
Speaker 1: Even still, Uva had to run at this thing in

1118
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 1: the last few minutes after a strip sack and made

1119
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,160
Speaker 1: it all the way down to the Tech fourteen yard

1120
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: line and then turned it over on downs. So twenty

1121
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 1: nine to twenty four was your final. You know, I

1122
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: wanted to say we started doing in a losing effort.

1123
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 1: I want to say when we were at Grantland in

1124
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 1: twenty eleven, if memory serves.

1125
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 3: That's right, yeah, because it was Nick Foles at Arizona

1126
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 3: throwing for like four hundred yards and five touchdowns a

1127
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 3: game and losing. Y'a.

1128
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 1: Not since Foles have we seen a quarterback like Brendan

1129
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 1: Armstrong who every week is pretty much doing the same

1130
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: thing where throwing for four hundred yards. He's the entire offense.

1131
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 1: This team isn't as bad in fairness as that Arizona team,

1132
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:11,320
Speaker 1: but every week it's Brendan Armstrong just trying to will

1133
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:14,000
Speaker 1: the team to victory. He wasn't able to do it here. Still,

1134
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: they finish six and six. I think they're on track

1135
00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 1: to maybe play in the Sun Bowl. I think I

1136
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm recalling that correctly against Oregon State,

1137
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 1: somebody like that. Virginia Tech's gonna go to a bowl game.

1138
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: Obviously they fired their coach. I did see They're projected

1139
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,800
Speaker 1: to play Florida in the guest bot A Bowl. Great,

1140
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,280
Speaker 1: so it could be an interesting matchup two coachless teams,

1141
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:43,000
Speaker 1: but good win for Tech to say the least. You

1142
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 1: mentioned the Miami game. Miami won by thirty seven over Duke.

1143
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:49,919
Speaker 1: They're at seven and five. Saw some projections they could

1144
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,040
Speaker 1: be headed to the Holiday Bowl, which wuld be a

1145
00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 1: nice spot against ASU.

1146
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 3: Nothing wrong with that. I think wrong with ending up

1147
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:56,480
Speaker 3: in San Diego.

1148
00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 1: Duke goes three to nine. Perhaps it's a chance to

1149
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, have that David Cutcliffe conversation.

1150
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 3: I think that the expectations Duke moves on.

1151
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 1: I believe Yeah, all right, Let's go to the SEC

1152
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 1: real quick. Let me rattle off. Let's go to Georgia

1153
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,640
Speaker 1: forty five nil over Georgia Tech. Let's go to LSU

1154
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 1: with a nice win twenty seven to twenty four over

1155
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 1: Tests A and M. Florida wins the Sunshine Showdown by

1156
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 1: a twenty four to twenty one score. Old Miss won

1157
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,840
Speaker 1: the Egg Bowl on Thursday night by ten thirty one

1158
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 1: twenty one. Arkansas knocks off Miszoo by seventeen, Kentucky big

1159
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:37,360
Speaker 1: over Louisville by a fifty two to twenty one score,

1160
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,280
Speaker 1: and Tennessee took care of business against Vandy. It was

1161
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 1: never close, as Tennessee moves to seven and five. Dan

1162
00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,320
Speaker 1: real quick. On the Georgia game, I'll just mention this,

1163
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:53,600
Speaker 1: please never close. It's been a rough stretch here for

1164
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech.

1165
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.

1166
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 1: They got outscored one hundred to nothing, literally one hundred

1167
00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 1: to nothing their final two games of the year. Notre

1168
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Dame in Georgia Stetson Bennett very good through the air,

1169
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,680
Speaker 1: four touchdowns, only missed like six throws or I don't

1170
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 1: even know if it was that many. They are twelve

1171
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 1: and oh. They're going to face Bam in the SEC

1172
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:13,400
Speaker 1: title next week. As I said earlier that it's going

1173
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,520
Speaker 1: to be about a six and a half seven point game.

1174
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:18,640
Speaker 1: We could talk more about that one on Wednesday. But

1175
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 1: no real surprise here in the Klean old fashioned hate game.

1176
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech goes three and nine. They had moments this

1177
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 1: year where they what kind of frisky I don't know

1178
01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:31,720
Speaker 1: at what point we started having the Jeff Collins discussion.

1179
01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:31,720
Speaker 2: But.

1180
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 1: Tough schedule, which maybe is something that he can use

1181
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,919
Speaker 1: as a crutch to extend it another year. I don't

1182
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:43,240
Speaker 1: know if there is any speculation about his future, but

1183
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:48,040
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like they took that biggest step forward in

1184
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:49,600
Speaker 1: twenty one, which is a bit concerning.

1185
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 3: I agree. I mean, did they not lose one hundred

1186
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 3: and nothing these last two weeks to Notre Dame in Georgia?

1187
01:00:57,720 --> 01:00:58,120
Speaker 1: Exactly?

1188
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 3: It's backup quarterback. I get all that, but I need

1189
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,520
Speaker 3: any points on the board, even in a rivalry. Give

1190
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 3: me three, give me seven, me ten, give me eight, whatever.

1191
01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:11,000
Speaker 3: I understand what they're up against. But yeah, you're absolutely

1192
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:16,440
Speaker 3: right about that Tyler Baty. If Eli Drinkwitz could have

1193
01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 3: given the ball to him sixty five times, he might have.

1194
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:25,439
Speaker 3: If it were physically possible to just snap into Tyler

1195
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,160
Speaker 3: Baty every single play and have him run forward. Missoo

1196
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:30,040
Speaker 3: would not have had much of a chance against Arkansas

1197
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 3: because kJ Jefferson is way better than what Miszoo has

1198
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 3: at quarterback, and Traylon Burks is way better than what

1199
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:40,720
Speaker 3: Misso has a wide receiver. But man they really they

1200
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 3: get they really gave him some exercise. Huh.

1201
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:46,400
Speaker 1: Forty one carries two hundred and nineteen yards in a touchdown.

1202
01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 1: He was the SEC's leading rusher. That's because he gets

1203
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,600
Speaker 1: the ball like eighty times a game. Yep, And uh yeah,

1204
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 1: I think you're right. He was really the only consistent

1205
01:01:56,080 --> 01:02:00,120
Speaker 1: bit of offense for the Miszoo Tigers all seas. And

1206
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,640
Speaker 1: let me go back here to the LSU A and

1207
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,000
Speaker 1: M game. This is one of those where I thinkt

1208
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 1: LSU and I couldn't really explain why, just kind of

1209
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:12,320
Speaker 1: a gut instinct. Maybe with Coacho being at home his

1210
01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:17,920
Speaker 1: last game at night Max Johnson. Max Johnson got sacked

1211
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:21,000
Speaker 1: six times in the second half alone and then bounces

1212
01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 1: back to lead an eighty five yard drive in the

1213
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,200
Speaker 1: closing moments, throwing a game winning touchdown with twenty seconds

1214
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,960
Speaker 1: left to get this team ball eligible. Just an incredible

1215
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:30,880
Speaker 1: sequence of events.

1216
01:02:31,360 --> 01:02:37,000
Speaker 3: A and M just wrestling the loss from the jaws

1217
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,520
Speaker 3: of victory. With the way that they lost this game

1218
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 3: on offense, the play calling, the inability to protect Zach Halzada,

1219
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:47,880
Speaker 3: the inability to prevent LSU from scoring the way that

1220
01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 3: they did. It's just ugly, and I don't know what

1221
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 3: it says about Jimbo. I don't know if with the

1222
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:56,360
Speaker 3: backup quarterback situation, if A and M fans considered like

1223
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 3: this to be the year, but in terms of uncertainty

1224
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:04,280
Speaker 3: within the beating Alabama, having down LSU, having improved Ole

1225
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:09,160
Speaker 3: Miss and improved Mississippi State, but certainly not flawless. Improved

1226
01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 3: Arkansas not flawless. Where A and M has, if not

1227
01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:16,600
Speaker 3: the best defense in the division, it's right there, and

1228
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 3: to kind of waste it, I just I don't know

1229
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 3: how you're an A and M fan and you don't

1230
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 3: come away disappointed obviously with the result against LSU on

1231
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 3: the road, but overall, like I don't know, it just

1232
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:28,840
Speaker 3: it feels like a wasted A and M here and

1233
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:33,400
Speaker 3: really good skill talent on offense, yeah, really good skill

1234
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,280
Speaker 3: talent on offense too. I mean they're not deep at

1235
01:03:36,400 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 3: true receivers, but between A Nya Smith and Devin ah Chant,

1236
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,760
Speaker 3: yeah they're guys. They are definite dudes that are game changers.

1237
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:45,720
Speaker 3: But in Jalen Weidermeier coming back, I don't know, it's

1238
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:50,240
Speaker 3: just deak Kalzada just for four and a half throws

1239
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:53,520
Speaker 3: the game you're like, all right, all right, here we go,

1240
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:56,560
Speaker 3: and then there are eleven where you're like, what's going on?

1241
01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:56,840
Speaker 4: Now?

1242
01:03:57,200 --> 01:03:58,160
Speaker 3: What where's it going?

1243
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 1: Sales On, they're eight and four. They will go to

1244
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 1: a bowl game. We'll find out now, obviously next week

1245
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 1: after conference championship week. The Florida Florida State game was

1246
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 1: something so there was a fight before the game. It

1247
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:14,720
Speaker 1: was chippy all throughout. Twenty one penalties for almost two

1248
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 1: hundred yards, and there were six turnovers. We got exactly

1249
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:21,680
Speaker 1: what we paid for with Florida Florida State. After all

1250
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:25,560
Speaker 1: of the speculation. We did a thing on the previous show.

1251
01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 1: We didn't know about Emory Jones. Emory Jones played for

1252
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:28,640
Speaker 1: a little bit.

1253
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:29,080
Speaker 3: He did.

1254
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:31,920
Speaker 1: He played for a little bit. He was replaced for

1255
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson after he threw what three picks he don't

1256
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:39,600
Speaker 1: repicks in this game. Richardson was a lot better. Florida

1257
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 1: sorta dominated this game, sorta. The Knowles made a late

1258
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 1: charge but couldn't get the job done, hoping to qualify

1259
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:50,240
Speaker 1: for the bowl game. This is from Alligator Army dot com,

1260
01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:55,000
Speaker 1: the Great Florida site. Florida State's final touchdown drive a

1261
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 1: sixteen play ninety six yard death March managed to drain

1262
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,360
Speaker 1: six off of the game clock, but took more than

1263
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:05,240
Speaker 1: twenty three minutes of actual time as recorded by humans

1264
01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:08,080
Speaker 1: in the real world, to play out, with six penalties

1265
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 1: being assessed and three separate plays, meriting replay reviews. I

1266
01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:15,280
Speaker 1: was watching my scoreboard app. I did not watch this

1267
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,480
Speaker 1: one live. I thought that there was a glitch. I

1268
01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 1: could not figure out what the hell was going on

1269
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:24,040
Speaker 1: because I kept refreshing it. What's happening? Why is the

1270
01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 1: clock not moving? Why is the clock not moving? This

1271
01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:30,960
Speaker 1: is why they did a bunch of reviews. The Gators win,

1272
01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 1: for whatever that's worth. They get the six and six

1273
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,560
Speaker 1: their Bowl eligible. Florida State finishes just shy of that

1274
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:38,720
Speaker 1: with a five and seven mark.

1275
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 3: Damn, but.

1276
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:42,680
Speaker 1: Florida was in control for most of this game.

1277
01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 3: By the way, twenty three minutes is an actual TV show.

1278
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 3: That's how long a sitcom is generally, when you factor

1279
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:52,960
Speaker 3: in commercials to get to a half hour. Very nice

1280
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 3: win for Florida, and it's easy to say, Okay, Florida

1281
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,080
Speaker 3: State started owned four and you know they were a

1282
01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:59,480
Speaker 3: down team. Jordan Travis gets hurting this one. Florida won

1283
01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:01,840
Speaker 3: this game out. Damian Pierce got a penalty for having

1284
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:03,840
Speaker 3: his helmet ripped off because he kept running, he kept

1285
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 3: participating in the play. Florida ends up scoring on that

1286
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 3: drive regardless, So impressive from Florida considering all of that

1287
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:13,240
Speaker 3: there down and the mistake prone nature of the quarterback position.

1288
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:15,760
Speaker 3: This year Florida gets to a bowl, they're going to

1289
01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:18,280
Speaker 3: be starting over. I think a lot of the smoke

1290
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,400
Speaker 3: is around Billy Napier and be curious to see the

1291
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 3: kind of staff he or whoever ends up in that

1292
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 3: job by the time. Look we're recording this Sunday morning, Well,

1293
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:28,520
Speaker 3: you know this is probably going to be an outdated take,

1294
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:33,320
Speaker 3: but Florida getting that win given what they were up against, good,

1295
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:37,000
Speaker 3: good job, and obviously what Florida State's offense is without

1296
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:39,640
Speaker 3: Jordan Travis makes it very clearly Jordan Travis is the

1297
01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:42,760
Speaker 3: MVP of this team because he can will them forward

1298
01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:47,520
Speaker 3: to success. So yeah, good for Florida real quick.

1299
01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 1: The Egg Bowl Ole miss defense played really well, dam

1300
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,640
Speaker 1: Williams Man Yeah, held Mississippi State scoreless for the second

1301
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 1: third and half of the fourth quarters. Meanwhile, the offense

1302
01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:01,520
Speaker 1: ripped off twenty one straight two short touchdown runs for

1303
01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:04,920
Speaker 1: Snoop Connor as ole. Miss completes a ten win season.

1304
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:08,360
Speaker 1: Congrats to them. Mississippi State finishes seven and.

1305
01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 3: Five on the road in the Egg Bowl. Not easy,

1306
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:13,680
Speaker 3: no comfortable win, Yeah at all.

1307
01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 1: Kentucky won big. They had three hundred and sixty two

1308
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:22,640
Speaker 1: yards and seven touchdowns on the ground on the ground,

1309
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 1: four of which belonged to quarterback Will Levis. They also

1310
01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:31,480
Speaker 1: shut down Malie Cunningham, who fought valiantly eventually left the

1311
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 1: game with about ten minutes left. Yeah, just needed a

1312
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:38,040
Speaker 1: lot more support around him, frankly, as they finished the

1313
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:40,640
Speaker 1: year six and six. Kentucky finishes nine to three.

1314
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:44,120
Speaker 3: Pick this one wrong, definitely pick this one wrong. I

1315
01:07:44,200 --> 01:07:47,840
Speaker 3: thought the offensive momentum was with Louisville. What does Penn

1316
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:50,040
Speaker 3: State look like with a combination of Will Levis and

1317
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:53,479
Speaker 3: Liam Cohen this year? What do they look like? Running

1318
01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 3: a lot more successful RPO action?

1319
01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 1: They probably run the ball a lot better tell you

1320
01:07:58,080 --> 01:07:58,400
Speaker 1: that much.

1321
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:00,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if they can bring the

1322
01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:05,360
Speaker 3: Kentucky offensive line with them, but I would imagine they're

1323
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,840
Speaker 3: a little bit more creative, and you know, you substitute

1324
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 3: in Johan Dotson as an upgrade to Wandeale Robinson, who

1325
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:16,599
Speaker 3: himself is really good man crazy Penncil Tucky Penncil Tucky

1326
01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:19,360
Speaker 3: good good, really really impressive for Kentucky to do what

1327
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:22,639
Speaker 3: they did against Louisville. So way to finish out the season, Kentucky,

1328
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:25,080
Speaker 3: you can get to ten wins over.

1329
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:29,200
Speaker 1: In the Big Twelve. Couple games of significance. Baylor edges

1330
01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:33,080
Speaker 1: out Texas Tech twenty seven to twenty four. Iowa State

1331
01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:36,479
Speaker 1: big on Friday over TCU by a forty eight to

1332
01:08:36,560 --> 01:08:39,200
Speaker 1: fourteen score. Big game for Bryce Hall almost two hundred

1333
01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 1: three yards on the breece. What did I say, Bryce Hall?

1334
01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:44,479
Speaker 3: You said, Bryce, So it's our guy, Brece breecee Hall.

1335
01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 1: Excuse me? West Virginia by six over Kansas. West Virginia

1336
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 1: got went bowling, and we had Texas Texas edging out

1337
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:58,720
Speaker 1: Case State by a twenty two to seventeen final. That

1338
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:03,080
Speaker 1: one was also on Friday, game for Roshawn Johnson. Let's

1339
01:09:03,080 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 1: start with Baylor. Let's so Baylor is going to be

1340
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,000
Speaker 1: playing in the Big Twelve championship game because of the

1341
01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:13,519
Speaker 1: results in Bedlam with Oklahoma State winning. Blake Shapin got

1342
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,559
Speaker 1: the start for the injured Gary Bohannon, who you said

1343
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,439
Speaker 1: rightly at the top of the show was questionable.

1344
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,040
Speaker 3: Dressed though dressed on the sideline. So if it's a

1345
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:25,160
Speaker 3: hamstring issue, just got to get that, get that loose

1346
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,759
Speaker 3: and ready to go for Oklahoma State, because if Baylor

1347
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:32,080
Speaker 3: is substandard at quarterback against Oklahoma State, it won't win.

1348
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:36,439
Speaker 1: I thought Shapen was actually pretty good. If it were soccer,

1349
01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 1: I'd give him a seven out of ten. Okay, there

1350
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,960
Speaker 1: were a couple throws that he was lucky to escape,

1351
01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 1: but there were plenty of other moments where I think

1352
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 1: he clearly showed that he's got a lot of talent,

1353
01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:48,800
Speaker 1: and he's young and he's still learning. I think he

1354
01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:51,639
Speaker 1: could be very good. The skills are clearly there. He's

1355
01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 1: not going to supply it Gary Bohannon. If Bohannon is

1356
01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:56,920
Speaker 1: healthy for the Big Twelve title or the Bowl, Bohannan's

1357
01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:58,760
Speaker 1: going to be the guy. But I think if you're

1358
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,840
Speaker 1: David Randa, it's comforting to you have a guy in

1359
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:02,920
Speaker 1: shape and who's probably not going to lose the game

1360
01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 1: for you. At worst, he's Calzada esque and you can

1361
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:08,599
Speaker 1: live with that. I can't believe that's an insult too.

1362
01:10:08,840 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 1: I don't know either. Tech had a shot at this thing, though,

1363
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:14,680
Speaker 1: I think is really the point that we should be

1364
01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 1: hammering home here. They were able to move the ball

1365
01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:20,080
Speaker 1: in the Baylor defense. They had a shot at a

1366
01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 1: fifty three yard or to tie it at the gun.

1367
01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:25,479
Speaker 1: Keep in mind Texas Tech wanted on a sixty two

1368
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,680
Speaker 1: yarder at the gun against Iowa State two weeks ago.

1369
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,240
Speaker 1: So a fifty three yarder, you're thinking, you got it,

1370
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:34,720
Speaker 1: no problem, had the leg did not have the accuracy

1371
01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:37,600
Speaker 1: as they finished this thing out six and six on

1372
01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 1: the year, So they're going to go bowling. Sonny Comby

1373
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:43,479
Speaker 1: is gonna be the coach in the bowl game. He's

1374
01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 1: going to stay on Joey Maguire's staff as offensive coordinator

1375
01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 1: when he takes over at the end of the season.

1376
01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:51,639
Speaker 1: So a bit of continuity in Lubbock, which is nice.

1377
01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:55,120
Speaker 1: And look, what can we say about what David Randa

1378
01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:58,000
Speaker 1: did man ten and two. The Bears are one of

1379
01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:02,439
Speaker 1: those teams that defied all all the preseason expectations. I

1380
01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 1: was crapping all over him in the preseason. Go back

1381
01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 1: to July. Listen to what I said. I was dead wrong.

1382
01:11:07,720 --> 01:11:11,320
Speaker 1: This is a good team. They were fundamentally sound. They

1383
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:13,720
Speaker 1: beat Oklahoma State when they played earlier in the year.

1384
01:11:13,760 --> 01:11:17,160
Speaker 1: I don't know what happens on Saturday when they play again,

1385
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:21,120
Speaker 1: but you gotta light their chances given the way they've

1386
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:24,439
Speaker 1: played all season. And I think this is a credit

1387
01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:26,439
Speaker 1: to Dave Randa. You got to feel great by the

1388
01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:28,840
Speaker 1: way if you're a Baylor fan that Randa is I

1389
01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:31,320
Speaker 1: think pretty steadfast and staying at Baylor. He's not going

1390
01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:33,560
Speaker 1: to be taking one of these open jobs. So you

1391
01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:34,960
Speaker 1: got to like where you're at right now if you're

1392
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:35,519
Speaker 1: a Bears.

1393
01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:38,800
Speaker 3: Fan, I think so. In Texas Tech obviously with the

1394
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,840
Speaker 3: two fumbles, I believe in their own territory, one of

1395
01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:43,760
Speaker 3: which leads to a short field touchdown, the other a

1396
01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:46,760
Speaker 3: field goal. So ten points off of short field turnovers

1397
01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:51,240
Speaker 3: is not ideal, but good for Baylor for taking advantage,

1398
01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:55,120
Speaker 3: and you know, winning a pseudo clunker and surviving. And

1399
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:57,240
Speaker 3: you're right about Dave Randa and the job he's done.

1400
01:11:57,479 --> 01:12:00,000
Speaker 3: And I love the aggression. If we're going to complain

1401
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 3: about the aggression or lack thereof with Brian Harson and

1402
01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,719
Speaker 3: and James Franklin, Dave A. Randa has taken the office

1403
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 3: the opposite tect this.

1404
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:11,040
Speaker 1: Year, Randa does not have that problem. No, he did

1405
01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:13,599
Speaker 1: not have that problem last year. He did last year,

1406
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:17,200
Speaker 1: but this year he is he is a do it dave.

1407
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:17,640
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1408
01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:22,479
Speaker 1: He is freshly shaven, he is aerodynamic, he is all

1409
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:26,120
Speaker 1: efficiency and analytics and whatever else.

1410
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:27,080
Speaker 4: But do it.

1411
01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:30,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he's he's not holding anything back now.

1412
01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:33,200
Speaker 3: So yeah, good for Baylor. We'll see what they look

1413
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:36,559
Speaker 3: like in the the Big Twelve championship game. No real

1414
01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,680
Speaker 3: thoughts on you know, Bristol just absolutely dominated TCU and

1415
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,920
Speaker 3: they should have. Will Howard got the start for Kansas

1416
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:47,320
Speaker 3: State and it showed Will Howard. Kansas State teams. Nothing

1417
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:50,439
Speaker 3: against mister Howard, but they're not a throwing team. They're

1418
01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:53,240
Speaker 3: not a downfield successful team when they have their backup

1419
01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:55,479
Speaker 3: quarterback in there. And he had a like a seventy

1420
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:57,479
Speaker 3: yard touchdown run something like that. He had another long

1421
01:12:57,520 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 3: one called back and Texas, for all of the terror

1422
01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:07,519
Speaker 3: that Texas has inflicted upon college football eyeballs, especially Texas

1423
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:11,160
Speaker 3: Longhorn eyeballs this season, tightening up in the second half

1424
01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:14,479
Speaker 3: like they did on defense, trusting that their running game

1425
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 3: in Roshawn Johnson not making a ton of killer mistakes,

1426
01:13:17,439 --> 01:13:18,960
Speaker 3: even though they did go three and out a little

1427
01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:21,439
Speaker 3: bit too much. Good for the Horns for hanging on

1428
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:22,320
Speaker 3: making place.

1429
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:26,519
Speaker 1: Absolutely the only other point here on the TCU front,

1430
01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:28,840
Speaker 1: they did make it official that Sonny Dike's is going

1431
01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 1: to be the next head football coach. It was sort

1432
01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:33,680
Speaker 1: of an open secret. We had Bruce Feldman on the

1433
01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:36,560
Speaker 1: show like two weeks ago, and at that point in

1434
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:40,439
Speaker 1: time it was sort of already known that Sunny Dike's

1435
01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:42,519
Speaker 1: was likely the guy who was going to be the

1436
01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 1: next head guy at TCU.

1437
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:46,799
Speaker 3: And SMU loses to Tulsa.

1438
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, as SMU loses to Tulsa. By the way, RTT

1439
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:52,240
Speaker 1: Lashley will be taking over as a new SMU coach

1440
01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:55,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the season. Okay, over in the

1441
01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:58,400
Speaker 1: PAC twelve. A couple games to discuss here. There is

1442
01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:01,080
Speaker 1: a bunch of action in the PAC twelve. Let's start

1443
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 1: with your Oregon Ducks. Dan. Let's the Platypus Cup, as

1444
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:07,120
Speaker 1: we've come to know and love it here on the show.

1445
01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:10,439
Speaker 3: Somebody, I think, because it's a platypus trophy, I forget

1446
01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:12,680
Speaker 3: if it was addicted to quack. Some site said, got

1447
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:15,680
Speaker 3: Oregon takes the platty, the platta. I like all in

1448
01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:16,599
Speaker 3: on the platty.

1449
01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:19,240
Speaker 1: I like that thirty eight to twenty nine. I did

1450
01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:23,320
Speaker 1: not watch much of this game outside the highlights, but

1451
01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:25,760
Speaker 1: you were messaging me that Oregon might lose. When they

1452
01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:26,559
Speaker 1: were up sixteen.

1453
01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:30,519
Speaker 3: They were slowly letting the game drain away from them.

1454
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:32,000
Speaker 3: They I think they were up thirty one to nine

1455
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:35,240
Speaker 3: or something at one point, and they, I mean, Oregon

1456
01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:37,599
Speaker 3: State was just moving the ball. It's seemingly at will.

1457
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:41,840
Speaker 3: This defense is so beat up and gives cushions, and

1458
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,439
Speaker 3: they're just open receivers running on third and seven all

1459
01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:47,560
Speaker 3: the time. Tight ends whatever, and Oregon State wins in

1460
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:50,080
Speaker 3: a very specific way. I get that. And Oregon played

1461
01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:53,880
Speaker 3: really really well on offense. They're not the most electric team,

1462
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,880
Speaker 3: but they were pushing Oregon State around. Anthony Brown hit

1463
01:14:56,920 --> 01:14:59,639
Speaker 3: a couple of really nice throws downfield, especially one downfield

1464
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:03,600
Speaker 3: for a time down to Devin Williams, and organ was

1465
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:05,840
Speaker 3: clearly the better team, but they let Oregon State sort

1466
01:15:05,840 --> 01:15:07,880
Speaker 3: of creep back into this. It was a garbage time

1467
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:09,439
Speaker 3: touchdown to cut it. It was I think it was

1468
01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 3: thirty eight twenty one, and they cut it to thirty

1469
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 3: eight twenty nine. But Oregon State, you know, it's they

1470
01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:17,400
Speaker 3: took advantage of an Oregon defense that has I don't

1471
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:19,760
Speaker 3: know a ways to go, I would say, especially when

1472
01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:21,240
Speaker 3: they're as beat up as they are. I think they

1473
01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:24,240
Speaker 3: had a linebacker at defensive end at some point. They're

1474
01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:27,920
Speaker 3: all over the place. There was a questionable targeting call,

1475
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:30,759
Speaker 3: or a questionable review of a targeting call. It seemed

1476
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:33,719
Speaker 3: like Veron McKinley may have targeted an Oregon State receiver.

1477
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:36,599
Speaker 3: It seemed close to me, but would have been totally

1478
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:38,479
Speaker 3: okay if he had been injected. It was just that

1479
01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:42,280
Speaker 3: kind of bam bam and or bang bang play and

1480
01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:45,240
Speaker 3: it was reviewed and reversed. So I guess Verwan McKinley

1481
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 3: won't be missing the first half of the Utah game,

1482
01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:50,200
Speaker 3: the key member of that defense. That's healthy. But they're

1483
01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:53,560
Speaker 3: down a bunch of dudes, you know, on offense, you know,

1484
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 3: without basically their starting receivers. And still got the job done.

1485
01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:00,439
Speaker 3: Still got the job done in a rivalry game at home.

1486
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:02,559
Speaker 3: Cover the spread I believe about seven and a half

1487
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,360
Speaker 3: point spread that they covered, yep, yep. So good for

1488
01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:08,200
Speaker 3: the Ducks. Moving on to Vegas next week against Utah,

1489
01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:10,519
Speaker 3: who they just got trounced by.

1490
01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:12,920
Speaker 1: They just got trounced. They are moving on to Vegas

1491
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,600
Speaker 1: to square off against Utah. Utah won its game on

1492
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:20,600
Speaker 1: Friday over Colorado. Colorado had less than one hundred and

1493
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,639
Speaker 1: fifty yards of offense and Utah ran wild on the ground.

1494
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 1: Utah is a three point favorite in that rematch with Oregon. Yeah,

1495
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:32,599
Speaker 1: they play that one on Friday night. Elsewhere. We had

1496
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:37,560
Speaker 1: Wazoo forty to thirteen over Washington. Oh my god. So

1497
01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:39,800
Speaker 1: this was sort of close for a half, but then

1498
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:42,679
Speaker 1: WAZU turned it on and it was over. They dusted Washington.

1499
01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:47,920
Speaker 1: Sam Heward got the start here. Yeah, four picks, Welcome

1500
01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:54,160
Speaker 1: to college football. Jake Dickert gets the job at Wazoo.

1501
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, interim tag is off.

1502
01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,519
Speaker 1: Interim tag is off. He did an admirable job leading

1503
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:03,120
Speaker 1: this wa Zoo team imand very strange circumstances after the

1504
01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:08,080
Speaker 1: dismissal of Nikrolovich. Seven and five for Wazoo, I think,

1505
01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:12,640
Speaker 1: all things considered a pretty good campaign for them Washington.

1506
01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:17,960
Speaker 1: I have not heard much in the rumors department as

1507
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 1: to which direction they may be headed with their head

1508
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:23,240
Speaker 1: football coach, but I would expect that pretty soon we're

1509
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:23,960
Speaker 1: going to hear something.

1510
01:17:24,800 --> 01:17:28,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's been a lot of kailin de boor smoke around.

1511
01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 3: I like that job, which I think would be smart

1512
01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:31,160
Speaker 3: and savvy.

1513
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:32,320
Speaker 4: I like it.

1514
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 1: Okay. We had Notre Dame forty five to fourteen over

1515
01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:40,920
Speaker 1: Stanford in a game that was never close. I think

1516
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:43,920
Speaker 1: Stanford had like six passing yards at half or something. Crazy.

1517
01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:50,560
Speaker 1: We had BYU in a good game, actually blowing a

1518
01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:53,519
Speaker 1: fifteen point lead in the second half and then rallying

1519
01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,920
Speaker 1: and winning thirty five to thirty one over USC as

1520
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:01,120
Speaker 1: they finished ten and two. We had UCLA forty two

1521
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:04,639
Speaker 1: to fourteen over Cal. Sort of a back and forth

1522
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,120
Speaker 1: first half and then you see, yeah, a little bit

1523
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:09,719
Speaker 1: with it in the second half. Good game for dtr

1524
01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:13,960
Speaker 1: again forty two to fourteen and ASU runs for two

1525
01:18:14,080 --> 01:18:17,080
Speaker 1: twenty eight on the ground and they win the Territorial

1526
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:20,960
Speaker 1: Cup thirty eight to fifteen. ASU finishes eight and four

1527
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:22,599
Speaker 1: Arizona one and eleven.

1528
01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:26,479
Speaker 3: Dan thought, yeah, Ucla shut out Cal in the second half.

1529
01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:28,400
Speaker 3: They just ran all over the hell Cal. And these

1530
01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:31,040
Speaker 3: are two teams coming off of rivalry games, so in

1531
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:32,800
Speaker 3: a bit of a letdown spot. The game started out

1532
01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:35,920
Speaker 3: pretty slowly. Arizona hung around with ASU for a good

1533
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,200
Speaker 3: chunk of this one, but ASU, of course, just too

1534
01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:40,920
Speaker 3: much on the ground. Didn't watch a ton of USC

1535
01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,120
Speaker 3: BYU because I, you know, I like to be nice

1536
01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:45,760
Speaker 3: to myself, so I don't watch a lot of USC

1537
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:47,839
Speaker 3: football right now. In that defense.

1538
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:51,920
Speaker 1: But look, USC looked up in this game. Yeah, they

1539
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:56,080
Speaker 1: I think, all things considered, they looked pretty good. Remember

1540
01:18:56,120 --> 01:18:58,479
Speaker 1: they got drilled by UCLA a week ago. They don't

1541
01:18:58,479 --> 01:18:59,240
Speaker 1: look bad in this game.

1542
01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 3: No, they have the worst defense in the Pac twelve

1543
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:02,760
Speaker 3: and they I think we'll finish the season with the

1544
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:05,320
Speaker 3: worst defense in the Pac twelve, which a wild thing

1545
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:08,839
Speaker 3: to think about. BYU finished is undefeated against said conference,

1546
01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:09,479
Speaker 3: the PAC twelve.

1547
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:13,880
Speaker 1: Yes, fivefeated undefeated against Pac twelve, six and one against

1548
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:17,400
Speaker 1: Power five teams. They go ten to two. Great campaign, a.

1549
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,200
Speaker 3: Hell of a year, following up a season a historic

1550
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:22,960
Speaker 3: season with the number two overall pick at quarterback to

1551
01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:25,839
Speaker 3: and losing Jeff Grimes, of course their offensive coordinator.

1552
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:29,320
Speaker 1: They were They were another team much like Baylor that

1553
01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:33,719
Speaker 1: folks were writing them off before the season. Sure because

1554
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:36,320
Speaker 1: of turnover. You know, you lose Zach Wilson, that's a

1555
01:19:36,479 --> 01:19:40,519
Speaker 1: that's a lot to replace, but they have found a way.

1556
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:42,800
Speaker 1: Kalanie Sataki did a great job. Ten and two is

1557
01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 1: a fantastic campaign, and.

1558
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,800
Speaker 3: His name has rightfully come up for even bigger jobs.

1559
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:49,519
Speaker 3: And I'll say you this again, and you know, I

1560
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:51,640
Speaker 3: hear it from Iowa State fans, I hear it from

1561
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:54,360
Speaker 3: Cincinnati fans, and maybe we'll hear it from BYU fans

1562
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:57,519
Speaker 3: like he's not going anywhere. Maybe not, but you don't

1563
01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,360
Speaker 3: want a coach who is not rumored to be taking

1564
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,280
Speaker 3: big jobs, right And I remember that going back to

1565
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:06,479
Speaker 3: Chip Kelly where he told his players at Oregon, Who's like,

1566
01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:09,600
Speaker 3: it's because of the job we all do together that

1567
01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 3: I am in this position to have job rumors about me.

1568
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:14,280
Speaker 3: And so if you are a coach who's like, nap,

1569
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:16,960
Speaker 3: we don't want them. There's no way this coach would

1570
01:20:17,400 --> 01:20:19,760
Speaker 3: would be good enough at this school, then your team

1571
01:20:19,880 --> 01:20:21,760
Speaker 3: isn't that good, your program isn't in a good spot.

1572
01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:24,160
Speaker 3: So it's a compliment to Sataki and the players and

1573
01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 3: where BYU is right now as a program that his

1574
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:28,840
Speaker 3: name is being thrown around with jobs like you know whatever,

1575
01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:32,879
Speaker 3: Washington us some of those West Coast footprint jobs otherwise

1576
01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,920
Speaker 3: in the Pac twelve. Yeah, Stanford terrible season. They I

1577
01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:37,439
Speaker 3: don't think they hit what it was a three and

1578
01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:39,320
Speaker 3: a half point over under. They go three and nine

1579
01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:40,439
Speaker 3: to finish out the year.

1580
01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:44,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're over under was four Oh okay,

1581
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:46,960
Speaker 1: if memory serves, yeah, it wasn't high, and I remember

1582
01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:49,360
Speaker 1: being repulsed by that number, thinking you've got to be

1583
01:20:49,439 --> 01:20:53,400
Speaker 1: kidding me, right, three and nine for Stanford. They were

1584
01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:57,080
Speaker 1: very bad in this game on the Notre Dame side.

1585
01:20:57,360 --> 01:21:01,000
Speaker 1: You know, Notre Dame's interesting. Notre Dame is going to

1586
01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:04,439
Speaker 1: be on the periphery of this playoff discussion. They did

1587
01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:07,680
Speaker 1: what they needed to do. They want handily in this game.

1588
01:21:07,720 --> 01:21:10,040
Speaker 1: They want handily the last couple of weeks trying to

1589
01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:13,439
Speaker 1: impress the committee. Now they have to do the thing

1590
01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:17,599
Speaker 1: because they insist on being independent, or they just wait

1591
01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 1: it out and they sweat it out and they give

1592
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 1: everybody else a chance to put their teams on display

1593
01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:26,880
Speaker 1: before the committee in conference championship week. One of these

1594
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,200
Speaker 1: years they're going to get tired of doing that and

1595
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:31,200
Speaker 1: it's going to come back to bite them. I don't

1596
01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:33,040
Speaker 1: know if they care as much about this year, because

1597
01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:34,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if they actively believe they should be

1598
01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:37,840
Speaker 1: in it this year, But now they're going to be

1599
01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:41,240
Speaker 1: at the mercy of what Oklahoma State does. And I

1600
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:46,400
Speaker 1: do think it will come down Oklahoma State. I don't

1601
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,880
Speaker 1: think D's getting the NOD this year. I think if

1602
01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:53,280
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State wins over Bailor, the committee has no choice

1603
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:55,840
Speaker 1: but to put them in the playoff. It's a really

1604
01:21:55,880 --> 01:21:58,840
Speaker 1: tough sell to say, Okay, Oklahoma State, you had two

1605
01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:00,760
Speaker 1: top ten wins in the last two weeks, but we're

1606
01:22:00,800 --> 01:22:04,160
Speaker 1: gonna go Notre Dame instead. Sure Notre Dame gets ratings,

1607
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:07,080
Speaker 1: they would get better ratings, but I think if you're

1608
01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:09,959
Speaker 1: being serious about this thing, it's tough to put Oklahoma

1609
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:12,720
Speaker 1: State in. In all honesty, Notre Dame needs Georgia to

1610
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:15,599
Speaker 1: beat Bama, and then they need a loss. They need

1611
01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:19,320
Speaker 1: a loss by either Michigan or Cincinnati.

1612
01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:22,600
Speaker 3: Orma or Oklahoma State. Right, Staylor is not going to

1613
01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:23,400
Speaker 3: jump Notre Dame.

1614
01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:27,800
Speaker 1: So I think there's still a good chance they could

1615
01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:30,880
Speaker 1: get in, but they definitely need some help because they

1616
01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 1: don't play. So we'll see.

1617
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:36,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh, wouldn't it be wonderful for every You know,

1618
01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:42,880
Speaker 3: Michigan wins and Oklahoma State loses and Cincinnati loses, and oh,

1619
01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:45,920
Speaker 3: we have what twelve and one Cincinnati and eleven and

1620
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,280
Speaker 3: one Notre Dame, And like, who are you gonna put in? Oh?

1621
01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:50,040
Speaker 3: Should we put in the team that won with the

1622
01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:51,040
Speaker 3: other team on the road.

1623
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:52,000
Speaker 6: I don't know.

1624
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:55,200
Speaker 3: Notre Dame though, No, Like is Notre Dame getting it

1625
01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:56,599
Speaker 3: ahead of Cincinnati in that situation?

1626
01:22:57,120 --> 01:23:00,400
Speaker 1: You know the committee wants to. Of course, of course

1627
01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:02,760
Speaker 1: they want to. I don't think they should because they

1628
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,920
Speaker 1: did play head to head. Yeah, that's not the say

1629
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,360
Speaker 1: Notre Dame has not gotten better and that should be

1630
01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:12,280
Speaker 1: accounted for. But yeah, they played and Cincinnati won, and

1631
01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:16,559
Speaker 1: it's tough tough to overcome that head to head. Actually,

1632
01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:19,320
Speaker 1: in that instance, do you put both teams in? Because

1633
01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:20,800
Speaker 1: that could be a case to be made as well.

1634
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:28,280
Speaker 3: So Georgia, Michigan, Notre Dame, Cincinnati. Yeah, if Oklahoma State

1635
01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 3: loses and Georgia wins quickly, all over the sport it's

1636
01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,560
Speaker 3: I mean, we had some teams getting Bowl eligible. I

1637
01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:38,320
Speaker 3: know Caleb Alibi threw for a bajillion yards for Western Michigan,

1638
01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:40,360
Speaker 3: which their win against pitt looks better and better by

1639
01:23:40,360 --> 01:23:42,560
Speaker 3: the way they beat Northern Illinois who themselves had a

1640
01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:44,840
Speaker 3: very good season I believe extended their coach ball. State

1641
01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 3: gets Bowl eligible with a win over Buffalo, who had

1642
01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:49,920
Speaker 3: to deal with the last minute head coaching replacement. Of course,

1643
01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:54,760
Speaker 3: with Lance Leiphold moving on to Kansas, Fresno State big

1644
01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 3: over San Jose State. I mentioned Kaylin de Bor and

1645
01:23:57,600 --> 01:23:59,759
Speaker 3: his name coming up for some big West Coast jobs.

1646
01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,280
Speaker 3: So an impressive year. They finish at nine to three,

1647
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:04,519
Speaker 3: and you can get to ten with a Bowl win.

1648
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:06,639
Speaker 3: Of course, if my math holds up San Diego State

1649
01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 3: with a very nice win, they end up in the

1650
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 3: Mountain West Championship game. They beat up on Boise State

1651
01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:13,679
Speaker 3: and shut them out in the second half at home.

1652
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,160
Speaker 3: Technically at home, I think they're playing. Do they playing Carson?

1653
01:24:16,439 --> 01:24:18,040
Speaker 3: Don't where of San Diego State playing right now while

1654
01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:21,720
Speaker 3: their stadium gets built, I don't know. Central Michigan a

1655
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:25,880
Speaker 3: quiet eight and four year four I believe Jim mcawayan's chips. Yes, yep,

1656
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:30,000
Speaker 3: I saw, and I just see this because of Bowling Green.

1657
01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:32,479
Speaker 3: Bowling Green gets to four and eight, which all things considered,

1658
01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:36,720
Speaker 3: not bad. They beat Minnesota. Scott Leffler was ejected a

1659
01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:39,880
Speaker 3: few weeks ago. I believe a little while ago, Steve Adazzio,

1660
01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:42,840
Speaker 3: ejected for Colorado State in the first half, gets two

1661
01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:46,920
Speaker 3: unsportsmanlike sideline penalties. Guess who's Steve Adazzi will hired to

1662
01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,919
Speaker 3: be his offensive coordinator at BC. That's right, The Adazio

1663
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:53,280
Speaker 3: Leffler combination are the two coaches who have been ejected

1664
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:57,400
Speaker 3: from games this year. Air force fully trampled UNLV throwing

1665
01:24:57,520 --> 01:25:00,920
Speaker 3: zero passes and as you mentioned, five eleven yards on

1666
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:06,400
Speaker 3: the ground, very nine and three. It's the air Force. Otherwise,

1667
01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:09,080
Speaker 3: as I scroll through and remind myself of things, utsa

1668
01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:13,040
Speaker 3: a darling is this the right button? A darling of

1669
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:16,680
Speaker 3: the solid verbal get hounded upfront by North Texas and

1670
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:19,120
Speaker 3: the mean Green with a disappointing year, but they get

1671
01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:19,720
Speaker 3: to a bowl game.

1672
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:22,920
Speaker 1: Dan, You don't just go to Apogee Stadium in Denton, yes,

1673
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:24,600
Speaker 1: and expect to win against.

1674
01:25:25,080 --> 01:25:27,240
Speaker 3: You just down into the d the true d Denton.

1675
01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:27,680
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1676
01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:31,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, you mentioned Houston getting to eleven and one

1677
01:25:31,720 --> 01:25:33,920
Speaker 3: with an easy win over Yukon, who finished the season

1678
01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:37,439
Speaker 3: one and eleven as they begin the Jim Mora era.

1679
01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:40,160
Speaker 3: So there's that. Army does a very nice job on

1680
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,400
Speaker 3: the road against Liberty especially on defense, handling Malik Willis

1681
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,680
Speaker 3: and Liberty and Army just obviously running and running and

1682
01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:49,599
Speaker 3: running Navy. It's a good good day for the Service Academy.

1683
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:52,719
Speaker 3: They win thirty eight to fourteen against Temple Kent State

1684
01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:55,240
Speaker 3: gets to seven wins after a brutal non conference schedule

1685
01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:58,360
Speaker 3: in a shootout, an overtime shootout over Miami of Ohio.

1686
01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:01,320
Speaker 3: Dustin Crumb through for a bit jillion yards this season.

1687
01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,280
Speaker 3: I think there was something like a combined seven hundred

1688
01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:06,320
Speaker 3: and fifty yards through the air in that matchup. Rice

1689
01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:08,160
Speaker 3: gets to fourgn eight with a win over Louisiana Tech,

1690
01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:11,480
Speaker 3: who themselves are beginning a coaching search with the Skipholtz

1691
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:13,560
Speaker 3: era coming to an end as he rests up to

1692
01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 3: replace Brian Kelly at Notre Dame. As we all know,

1693
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:20,240
Speaker 3: app State a quiet I'm saying quiet because I just

1694
01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:21,880
Speaker 3: didn't watch a lot of app State games and that's

1695
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:25,000
Speaker 3: on me. But ten and two, Chase Brice Mountaineers of

1696
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:26,720
Speaker 3: app State get to ten and two and they are

1697
01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:29,840
Speaker 3: finding themselves. I believe. In the Sun Belt Championship game,

1698
01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:33,120
Speaker 3: Coastal Carolina runs big, but they themselves will not be

1699
01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:37,400
Speaker 3: playing in a conference championship game. We mentioned Tulsa over SMU,

1700
01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:39,479
Speaker 3: A nice way to finish out the year for Tulsa

1701
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:43,479
Speaker 3: after a very slow start. I'm trying to think if

1702
01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:44,080
Speaker 3: there's anything I.

1703
01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:46,200
Speaker 1: Think you've read every game in college football.

1704
01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:48,919
Speaker 3: I know Memphis gets to six and six. Nevada destroys

1705
01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:51,360
Speaker 3: Steve Dazio's Colorado State. I don't know how much longer

1706
01:26:51,400 --> 01:26:54,639
Speaker 3: he is for Colorado State. Also, I believe and I'm

1707
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:56,639
Speaker 3: going to confirm this right now. In the FCS playoffs,

1708

01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:01,960

Speaker 1: Yeah?

1712
01:27:02,720 --> 01:27:04,439
Speaker 3: Come on, get out of Yeah?

1713
01:27:05,120 --> 01:27:06,800

1714
01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:09,280
Speaker 1: of next week's previous show. So holy Cross ten to two,

1715

1766
01:30:08,880 --> 01:30:11,080

1767
01:30:11,120 --> 01:30:16,120
