1
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: What does November have. It's got thirty days. I think

2
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 1: thirty or day they're going anyway, don't listen to the calendar.

3
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: They're lying to you. This right here, this coming up

4
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: is the longest month of the year. If you're at

5
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: the tender in the world college football. We are jam

6
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: Pack High Top, a marvelous downtown Nashville, Tennessee. On the

7
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,959
Speaker 1: Sunday night, October twenty seventh, the Year of Our Lord,

8
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Listen to the thickness of that stack.

9
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: We got a lot to talk about. Proudly brought to

10
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: you by Academy Sports and Outdoors. I just think people

11
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: are lying to you. I think they're lying to you

12
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: about Ohio State. I think they're lying to you about

13
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: what Bama did yesterday. I think they're lying about who

14
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: Colorado is period. I think they may be lying about

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: the outcome of LSU, Texas A, and M and what

16
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: it means for each team. But we are not a

17
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: live based program. We are a truth based program. We

18
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: may say things that end up being inaccurate, but it's

19
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: not because we're not trying to adhere to the truth

20
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: around here. And that is why I'm going to address

21
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: the people of Brigham Young. Tonight I might even try

22
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: and say the acronym. As bad as it sounds, I

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: do have to atone, I think a little bit for

24
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: maybe some maybe some missteps we have taken as a

25
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: Pate state people. I may wear the white T shirt,

26
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: but I have not been one with our Brigham Young brethren.

27
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: But tonight, you know, it takes a big man to apologize,

28
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: and I think tonight I got to be that big man.

29
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: AP voters should be drug testing. AP voters should be

30
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: tried for war crimes. After what they released today. I

31
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: can't believe it. We will talk about it. We got

32
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: a jam packed show Byron Georgia is tuned in Spokane, Washington, Tuscola, Illinois, Boonville, Mississippi.

33
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: Thank you guys so much. Where were we We were

34
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: in New York Wednesday and Thursday. We did two shows

35
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: up there. Appreciate you guys for that. We flew out

36
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: to Vegas. We went to UNLV Boise Friday night, amazing game,

37
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: Amazing atmosphere by the way. Then we hopped in jet

38
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: and we went to Nashville and we were at Texas

39
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: Vandy yesterday. I don't feel like I sat still more

40
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: than ten minutes. But I will say this, I met

41
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: a lot of our G five people, our G five

42
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: brothers and sisters out in Vegas Friday night, and I

43
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: really appreciated you guys, because some folks don't believe me

44
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: when I label myself G five. Josh, I don't know why.

45
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: I don't know why. Let's dive into the show tonight.

46
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: We're going to New York again this week, by the way,

47
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 1: so we'll do that all over, except that we won't

48
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: be headed to Vegas. We'll be headed to a different

49
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: stop at the end of the week, and I will

50
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 1: reveal that a little bit later on Texas A and

51
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: m BTLSU last night, thirty eight to twenty three, this

52
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: was not the game to be live blogging, live tweeting,

53
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: which a lot of you love to do, and it

54
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: is your constitutional right to do it, and when I

55
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: become college football Commissioner, I will fight for you to

56
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: maintain that right, but I will advise you not to

57
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: do it, because games like this will expose you. Games

58
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: like this get to the end and it's a four

59
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: Chalai classic on a scale of one to five, and

60
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: it was very, very entertaining to watch, but you get

61
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: to the end of it and what is there. Well,

62
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: there's what I'm doing right now. There's a lot of talk,

63
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: and some of it's bluster and some of it's substantive.

64
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: I think a lot of it's bluster on this game.

65
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: Just got to be real with you, because there's a

66
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: lot of talk about how A and M dominated this

67
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: game on the line of scrimmage. And they did so

68
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: that part. That part's notwithstanding to what I'm about to say.

69
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: But a lot of people I have heard in the

70
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: aftermath of this game talk about what a dominant performance

71
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: it was. They speak in these absolutes, and they put

72
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: such finality on the outcome, as if it was never

73
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: in doubt, and it was so definitive. And I just

74
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: want to ask those people, what did you sound like

75
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: with eight seventeen to go in the third quarter, Because

76
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: that's when LSU was up by ten, And if you

77
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: were watching this game like I was, you may have

78
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: found yourself saying, Ooh, they're close. LSU's close to breaking

79
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: this thing open. One more catch and run like they've

80
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: had so far, they may break this game open. Guys,

81
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: they play these things four quarters for a reason. They're

82
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: not over at halftime. They're not over at the end

83
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: of the third quarter. If they were to be a

84
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: much different sport, these games are long, you get multiple possessions.

85
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: If you got a really good coaching staff, they got

86
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: time to adjust, which I'm about to get into, because

87
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: A and M's got one, and they did. But I

88
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: maybe I was the only one, but I swear to

89
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: you I got home from the Vandy game in time

90
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: to watch this whole thing. I'm sitting there watching the game,

91
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: and I have said out loud, the words came out

92
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: of my mouth multiple times. LSU is about one more playaway,

93
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: Nus Garrett Nussmeyer, you know, the one getting crapped on today,

94
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: Garrett Nussmeyer is about one more play away from breaking this.

95
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: But they didn't. They didn't, and then Texas A and M.

96
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: I fought put on a coaching clinic last night. I mean,

97
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: everyone's heaping praise on Mike Elko me too. Let me

98
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: tell you specifically why we came into this thing. And

99
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: I said, I actually picked LSU to win the game.

100
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: And I said, I'm doing that because I don't know

101
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: that I could trust Connor Wigman. And I was right,

102
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: and he didn't earn the trust. Mike Elko had to

103
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: pull the trigger. Not at halftime. He let him go

104
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 1: back out for the third quarter, but he did not

105
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: earn the trust. Wigman was not good last night. The

106
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: Missouri game becomes more and more of a mirage with

107
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: each passing week, and so they made the move to

108
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: Marcel Reid. Now I mentioned that Missouri game, and I

109
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: want to go back to it for a second. Mike

110
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: Elko did not start Marcel Reid in the Missouri game.

111
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: He started Connor Wigman. Wigman came back and had the

112
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: game of his life and looks like a genius. But

113
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: I remember after that game, Elko made very specific mention

114
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: of Marcel Reid. Talked about how good a teammate he

115
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: had been, and how bought in he was, and how

116
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: non argumentative he had been with the decision to go

117
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: back to Wigman. And it's important that you note that

118
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: because it sounded like coach speak at the time. He

119
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: was dead serious and he understood what he had at

120
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback position. He understands his team, and he understood

121
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: down the road we're gonna need him again. Well, as

122
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: it turns out, they needed him last night. So he

123
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: kept him dialed in. And you got to credit Marcel

124
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,559
Speaker 1: Reid for staying dialed in too. No amount of coaching

125
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: can keep you dialed in if you're a turd, and

126
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: he's not. He's a great kid. So he stayed dialed in.

127
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: And then number two, you got a new offensive coordinator there.

128
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: Everybody's new, it's a new coaching staff. But you got

129
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: Colin Klein. And on one hand, you want your starter

130
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: to come through, but your starter doesn't come through. Insert

131
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: Marcel Reid. And for Colin Klein, that's in his wheelhouse

132
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: because then you got the mobile threat. And it doesn't

133
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: matter that he didn't throw for a lot because he

134
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: ran nine times for sixty two yards and three touchdowns

135
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,239
Speaker 1: to close this game out. They just broke the game open.

136
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: Didn't flinch. They just broke the game open. You got

137
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: to be I'm just I'm telling you. You gotta be

138
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: really good. You gotta be cohesive. You got to be

139
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: really good developmentally, fundamentally, but also as a staff. You

140
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: got to be really good for that kind of stuff

141
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: to be happening. Just live bullets flying. You're playing a

142
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 1: really good team. They had you on the ropes in

143
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 1: the first quarter. In the first half, they had you

144
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: on the ropes. Into the third quarter, they got a

145
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: double digit lead on you, and then your starter's out,

146
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: not for injury, but by your choice. You call and

147
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: you put in your backup, and then it's just you

148
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: do it like you practiced it because you have You

149
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: just did plan on that specific sequence of events. And

150
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: that leads me to my third point here, and that

151
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: is Jay Bateman's defense bottom time kept a minute and

152
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: the second half. This is LSU's drive chart. Don't be

153
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: sitting there talking about this. If you're an LSU fan,

154
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: I know how you look at your team. You can

155
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: look at your team in a vacuum, you know, like

156
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: the other guy's not even there. It was all up

157
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: to us, and we didn't come through. Well, you didn't

158
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: come through because A and M's defense had a lot

159
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: to say about it. In the second half. Your drive chart,

160
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: LSU's drive chart. Punt interception, turnover on downs, interception, touchdown, interception,

161
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: turnover on downs. A and M generated seventeen points off

162
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: interceptions in the second half. It was a coaching clinic.

163
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: And I say those words intentionally because I haven't attached

164
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: him to Texas. A and m football in quite a while.

165
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,559
Speaker 1: And I'm going to get back to that in a second,

166
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: because a lot of folks you're talking about Mike Elko

167
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: right now, they should they should be talking about him.

168
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: This is not it's not the end of anything. It's

169
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: not the beginning of anything. They are where they have

170
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: afforded themselves the opportunity to be right now, and that's

171
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: in position to contend for the SEC championship. They can

172
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: contend for a playoff spot. This is still a flawed team.

173
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: This is still a team that is vulnerable to the

174
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: right opponent. I think they'll face one this Saturday. So

175
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: I'm not about to make any kind of claims that

176
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to back space over in six days.

177
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: I'm not doing that tonight. What I'm saying about Elko,

178
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: and I'll say it in just a second because i

179
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: want to address LSU will extend if they get beat

180
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: by thirty this Saturday. Now. I called LSU the biggest

181
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 1: wildcard team in college football. Everything you could ever need,

182
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 1: exhibit ABC, D and E was on display last night.

183
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,119
Speaker 1: They came out of the gate and that's an extremely

184
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: tough place to play, and they're up and they had

185
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: explosive play after explosive play in the first half. What

186
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: I hoped was there though was not there. What I

187
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: hoped was there was the ground game that they took

188
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: to Arkansas last week. They outrushed Arkansas. That was a

189
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: prize to me. And I think that staff thought that

190
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: they had gone pretty good ways in self scouting and

191
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: assessing and making adjustments development, figuring things out in other words,

192
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: And I think this was a huge setback for them.

193
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: Just dead wrong. I mean, if you thought they had

194
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: turned the corner there, dead wrong. Had twenty four yards rushing.

195
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: Garrett nuss Meyer's interceptions are not the padlock stat to me.

196
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: Here he had three picks. I mean, they were egregious turnovers.

197
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you the padlock stat is two forty

198
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: two to twenty four because that was the rushing edge

199
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: that A and M had. And I can't tell you

200
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: for sure. I can't prove an alternate scenario is a

201
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: reality or not. But I'd be willing to bet if

202
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: that run game was a little more balanced, if that

203
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: offense was a little more balanced, you may not be

204
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: looking at a three in the interception column. Here is

205
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly sharing his thoughts afterwards.

206
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 2: Look, you can't make a living with thirty three yards rushing,

207
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 2: you know, And we've got to help Garrett out. Quite frankly,

208
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: We've got to give him a more balanced offense.

209
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 1: And you know, he can't be.

210
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: That guy that's got to throw for three hundred and

211
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: sixty five yards. There has to be more balance within

212
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 2: the offense.

213
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 1: And you know, we can.

214
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 2: We can go all night here and gang up on

215
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 2: Garrettnsmeyer if we want, right, but the reality of it is,

216
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: we've got to put him in a better situation and

217
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 2: get more balance within the offense.

218
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Brian Kelly's right. He knows it.

219
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: Any any football minded person, especially on that coaching staff,

220
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: they know it. You kind of put your guy in

221
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: an unfair position because Garrett Nussmeyer is not Joe Burrow

222
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: right now. So you can't look at him and say, Garrett,

223
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: you know, we can't do this this or that, but

224
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: that's all right, we got you just go bail us out.

225
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: Whether he does or he doesn't, it's not fair to him.

226
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: So I'm not sitting here representing him tonight. I'm not

227
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: his agent or anything like that. But I watched it

228
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 1: last night and everyone's praising the kid in the first half,

229
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: as they should have been, and then the same people

230
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: are deleting tweets and then trashing him in the second half.

231
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: And I'm looking at it like, yes, the turnovers are egregious. Yeah,

232
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: I'm convinced on the last one he threw that the

233
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: dude in front of him blocked his vision of the

234
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: guy behind him. But that's a whole other conversation. Anyway,

235
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: what do we think we're watching here? You know, Jim

236
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: Naggy of the Senior Bowl, he was tweet about him

237
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: last night, talking about what kind of NFL Prospectnusmeyer is,

238
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 1: and I retweeted it. I said, hey, that's what makes

239
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: him the biggest wild card in the game right now.

240
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: That's before he started turning the ball over, so no

241
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: one said anything predictably, And then he started turning the

242
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: ball over, and then some of them came at me

243
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: and said, oh, you might want to delete this. I

244
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: don't need to delete anything. Everything Jim said about him

245
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: in the first half still true. Notice I didn't call

246
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 1: him a slam dunk or a lock first rounder. You're

247
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: calling him a wild card as an asset, as a

248
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: concept Garrett Nussmeyer playoff caliber quarterback. That's a wild card concept.

249
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: Garrett Nussmeyer, first round quarterback. That's a wild art as

250
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,719
Speaker 1: a concept, meaning the gelatin has not gelled yet, it's

251
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: still kind of liquid, but all the ingredients seem to

252
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: be there. But I'm telling you, one of the ingredients

253
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to have for a guy like that,

254
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: cause he's not a transcendent talent, he's just a really

255
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: good talent, is you're gonna have to have what Brian

256
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: Kelly just talked about. You're gonna have to have somewhat

257
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: of a balanced offense. And Kelly got into the defense

258
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: a lot too. Honestly, their defense by last year's standard

259
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: is still leaps and bounds better. And I thought, on

260
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: the whole, they gave a good enough effort to where

261
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: they should have been able to win in a complimentary fashion.

262
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: But but I do want to address a couple of things.

263
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: I don't think any differently of LSU right now. I

264
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: still think they're a big wild card team. The difference

265
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: is margin for error is gone. And while I'm at it.

266
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: While I'm at it, can we just address the nonsense

267
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: in the room. Colin Show me the canal tweet. It's

268
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: so so redundant. Rest the nonsense, show me the canal

269
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: tweet is one of the most redundant phrases on this show,

270
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: because I don't know how many times I said it.

271
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: Here is Daniel Cannell hurt, emotionally scarred after Florida States

272
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: one in seven start lashing out at anything that moves.

273
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 1: Last night, LSU falls in a tough road game, and

274
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: Daniel Deeremetrius Kneal says, LSU eliminated. LSU's not eliminated, no

275
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: matter what. Danny Canell says, LSU's eliminated from having margin

276
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: for error. But what are we really talking about here?

277
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: This is why you cannot trust most expansionists because the

278
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,199
Speaker 1: same ones that bang the drum for college football playoff expansion,

279
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: why because they said it would make more games matter,

280
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: are the first ones eliminating you when you've lost a

281
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: second game. You're telling me LSU with two losses, if

282
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: they beat Bama, Florida, Vandy, and Oklahoma will not be

283
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: in the playoff. Will not be in what playoff? They

284
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't be in my playoff, They'll be in your playoff.

285
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: So Danny Canell's not to be trusted on this sort

286
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: of thing. And I do radio with him every Monday morning,

287
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,719
Speaker 1: I think at about seven point thirty, So Dusty de

288
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: Vorchek is usually just an innocent bystander and all this.

289
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: If anyone at sirius XM is listening, feel free to

290
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: license this clip and just play it as my lead

291
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: in tomorrow morning. A and M's still alive. They just

292
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: have no margin for error. Where are the perfect teams

293
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: out there? It's like I once upon a time listen

294
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: to Milden Friedman talk about economics, and now all the

295
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: people talking about how Man this stuff's so evil, and

296
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: he said, well, where are the angels in the society

297
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: you're talking about? Well, I say that about college football.

298
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: Anytime you're try and eliminate someone from the playoffs in

299
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: let me check the phone October, I ask, where are

300
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: these perfect teams that are going to fill out spots

301
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: one through twelve. That's eliminating LSU. LSU's not eliminated from anything.

302
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: Texas A and M. Though I'm not getting joked up

303
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: because I'm crying and my voice is just weak. Texas

304
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: A and M, the twenty twenty four team has a

305
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: lot to play for Texas A and M. The twenty

306
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: twenty four team still has flaw. They're imperfect, just like

307
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: anyone else out there. They're going to go on the

308
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: road in an extremely tough place against the rested South

309
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: Carolina team this Saturday night. I'm telling you, a face

310
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: plant is only one week away in this sport, in

311
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: this league in particular, but Texas A and M, the

312
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: Mike Elko led program, there's very little doubt about whatever

313
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: this team does the rest of the way. They may

314
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: be in Atlanta, or they may lose two or three

315
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: games between now in December. I don't care. Truthfully, I

316
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: didn't care at the beginning of the season. I already

317
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: had bought fully into Mike Elko. I think a lot

318
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: of people are buying into him now. Texas A and

319
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: M has always been a higher away. It's been that

320
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: simple and that difficult. And I have been shouted out

321
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: from every mountaintop on this show when I've talked about

322
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: how elite the program can be and how elite the

323
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: caliber of job that it is, I am right about that.

324
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you I am very convicted in what

325
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: Texas A and M football can be. Then people started

326
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 1: calling me an A and M Homer because the thing

327
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: about people who grow up in rural Georgia is we

328
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: tend to be A and M Homers. It's a real,

329
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: real secret Aggie strongholder in Harris County, Georgia. It's not

330
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: that it's just I have the ability to talk to

331
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: people in the know about it. But number two, I

332
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: just look at it and use common sense. Everything that

333
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: you need to win is there. There's not a single

334
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: box they don't check. The only thing that's barren is

335
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: the trophy case. And the trophy case is barren not

336
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: because there is a magical poison that exists in the

337
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: well water in College Station. It's because they've hired wrong

338
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: and now they hired right. And what's about to happen

339
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: is they're going to reap the benefit of that and

340
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: they'll be a perennial title contender in the very near future.

341
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: The recruiting profile of the program will adjust. I don't

342
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: just mean they'll get higher rated players. Truthfully, the rating

343
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: of the player they get may not change all that much.

344
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: The performance level will change a lot because the evaluation

345
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: and developmental pieces that this staff has the previous one didn't,

346
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: and the kind of guy they're going to take is

347
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 1: just a little twenty thirty degree course correction than the

348
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 1: kind of guy the previous staff did. I think there

349
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: are a lot of misnomers about what the problems were

350
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 1: with Jimbo Fisher's Texas A and now folks think they

351
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: went and got a bunch of really good players, they

352
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: just didn't develop them. Well, what if I told you

353
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 1: the players they got were overrated to begin with and

354
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,199
Speaker 1: they didn't do that bad a job coaching them up.

355
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: It's just you were kind of you were kind of

356
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: looking at an illusion to begin with with some of

357
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: those classes. So that's gone. That's the past, this is

358
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,199
Speaker 1: the now, this is the future. Mike Elko is what

359
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: in a sexy higher I think it got really covered

360
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: up by the kaelin debor hire. Elko is the real

361
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: deal man. Elko's the real deal. He's not going to

362
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 1: really shout into microphones. He's not going to show up

363
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 1: with a really colorful suit at media days that garners

364
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: the headlines. But the biggest headline grabber is winning football games.

365
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: He will do that. I am saying this, and I'll

366
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: say it if they get beat by thirty Saturday because

367
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: this year you only have so much control over what

368
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: you are and ye're one, But year two, three, four

369
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: and beyond, you better get used to the name Mike Elko.

370
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 1: This take is just independent of what they will be

371
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: the rest of the way this season. They are a

372
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: three and a half point favorite for the record according

373
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 1: to FanDuel This Saturday at South Carolina And by the way,

374
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: I know a lot of you are watching maybe a

375
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: clip of this that don't normally watch the live show,

376
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: and a lot of you are watching the live show.

377
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: Do me a favorite. Subscribe to the channel if you

378

Speaker 1: haven't already. We do this free. It's free of charge.

379
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: We do it three times a week, and we're happy

380
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: you're with us. We don't really talk anything else. It's

381
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: just college football around here. They're watching us all over

382
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: the place. Birmingham. I don't know why Birmingham comes out

383
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: of my mouth. I just know that you guys have

384
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: an Academy Sports and Outdoors in Birmingham because I've been

385
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: there and I've seen it. Academy Sports and Outdoors brings

386
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: the show to you, also free of charge. That's the

387
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: thing about a partnership. I personally shopped at Academy a

388
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: long time before I ever worked here. When we got

389
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 1: one in Columbus, it was a really big deal because

390
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: up until that point I had been forced to maybe

391
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: shop at a competitor, dare I say? And then I

392
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: didn't have to anymore, and so I appreciated it. Hold

393
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: on a second, I'm going sorry, it's just a guy

394
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: that I will call William Lucci texting me about something,

395
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: maybe watching the live show. Who knows. Anyway, Academy Sports

396
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: and Outdoors plentiful in eastern Central Texas but also around

397
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: the South, and you know what, they're spreading their net.

398
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: But if you don't have one in your backyard, that's okay.

399
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: That's okay because you have the Internet and so Academy

400
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: dot Com can take care of you. And I challenge you.

401
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: I challenge you to think what it is you may

402
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: need within reason, within reason, and then just check Academy.

403
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: I think you'll be shocked to find out what kind

404
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: of variety they have beyond the surface based typical bats

405
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: and balls and goals and gloves. They've got all that,

406
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: They've got all of it. They've also got fishing gear

407
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: and camping gear and grilling and outdoors of all kinds

408
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: of varieties. They've got it all for you. We appreciate academy.

409
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on. I am accused regularly, Colin

410
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: and Jesse. I think you'll back me up on this.

411
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: I am accused of being too positive. So we're doing

412
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: something about that tonight. Nebraska yesterday almost beat Ohio State.

413
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: Ohio State wins twenty one to seventeen. I'll give the

414
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 1: game two and a half taly on the one to

415
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: five scale. It's important. I need everyone to check in.

416
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: Some of you are new. Some of you haven't watched

417
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 1: the show for a very long time. So if you

418
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 1: haven't watched the show for a long time, you have

419
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: been lied to. All of us have been lied to

420
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: about this sport. It's just if you're new around here,

421
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: you may not be aware that they've been lying to you.

422
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: There are some big lies in college football. One of them,

423
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: you are what your record says. You are complete garbage.

424
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: It's often false. Number two line number two. If you

425
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: have two quarterbacks, you have none. Now we live in

426
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: a world where we once saw a starter benched at

427
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: halftime and a backup come in and win a national

428
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: championship game and that's happened within the last decade. So

429
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: that's also foolishness. And then number three, big line, Number three,

430
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: a win is a win, Well, that's garbage too, And

431
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why. Because Ohio State won a conference

432
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: game yesterday, and I am pretty terrified right now because

433
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: this is my national championship pick. I will feel good.

434
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: I don't feel good. I feel less good after I

435
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: watched them win a game yesterday. Sure in the conference standings,

436
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 1: there is another w and I don't want to make

437
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: light of that. There's value in winning games, of course

438
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: there is. What I am saying is when you say

439
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: a win is a win, it's insinuating that it doesn't

440
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: matter if it's forty nine to seventeen or twenty one

441
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,679
Speaker 1: to seventeen. It's just a win. No, it's not. This

442
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: is not professional football. You got a different caliber athlete,

443
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: you got a much bigger payroll, you got a higher staff,

444
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: You've got all the resource advantage in the world over Nebraska.

445
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: And so when you have to creep by them out

446
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: of your bye week at home after they got splattered

447
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 1: the week before by Indiana, yeah, I'm concerned. And I'm

448
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,719
Speaker 1: gonna say there's not as much value in winning that

449
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 1: way as it relates to the future. Okay, so let's

450
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: unpack this for a second, because my national title pick. Now,

451
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: so I'm emotionally invested here. So if I sound like

452
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: an Ohio State fan independent of the color of liquid

453
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 1: in the chalice here, it's because I'm a little emotionally invested,

454
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: and so I might as well be on buttonnuts right

455
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: now posting this transcript. It's important to remember now they're

456
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: coming off the bye. Last time you saw him, they

457
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,919
Speaker 1: played Oregon, right, Jesse, that's the last game, I think, yeah,

458
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: And so they go into the by. Ryan Day talked

459
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: a lot about what they needed to adjust and address,

460
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: and that's good, Okay. Nebraska meanwhile, just got pasted, just

461
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: got body bagged by Indiana. Last week. Nebraska came in

462
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: there and out rushed to Ohio State one twenty one

463
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 1: to sixty four. They had an eighteen to eleven first

464
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: down edge. Ohio State was one of ten on third

465
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: down coming out of the by. They had five to

466
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 1: three and outs. They had season lows in points, rush yards, passyards,

467
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: total yards, third down percentage. Nebraska, here's the saving grace.

468
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: This is the padlock stat Nebraska had six drives that

469
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 1: ended inside the Ohio State forty and they got one

470
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: touchdown out of those six drives. They were there. This

471
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 1: game was there for Nebraska to win. Now, I will

472
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: credit Ohio State for finding a way to win the game.

473
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, if they played Indiana yesterday, Indiana probably

474
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: beats Ohio State. Like Indiana is operating at a higher

475
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: level as a foot that's hyperbolic. Yesterday, Indiana operated at

476
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: a higher level as a football team than Ohio State.

477
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to get into that whole season long

478
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: thing because the Ohio State team that showed up at

479
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: we're going to probably be to Indiana. I will admit that.

480
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: But there is a thing that's happening right now. A

481
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: couple of my Ohio State buddies were texting me, and

482
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 1: I wasn't able to watch this game live, so I

483
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: had to go back and watch the replay, and I

484
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: had some of my Ohio State buddies, one in particular,

485
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: who knows who's t is. Some of my Ohio State

486
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: folks kept on texting me saying, man, we got to

487
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: just admit who we are. Man, we can't run the ball.

488
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,239
Speaker 1: So the only way that we're really separating in this

489
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: game is a couple of explosive pass plays. Why don't

490
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: we just go to that because it's ignorant. You're not

491
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: ignorant for saying, and I'm saying it's an ignorant way

492
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 1: to watch this team and to look at this every

493
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 1: run play that doesn't gain any yardage is not a

494
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: failed play. You want to ask someone about this, Go

495
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,679
Speaker 1: ask Brian Kelly, Go ask LSU because you know what

496
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: they've done. They kind of had to say screw it

497
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: to the run. They had to heavily lean on the pass.

498
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: And what they do They threw three picks and lost

499
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 1: the game last night, and now they're on the brink

500
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: of falling out of the playoff picture. I think Ohio

501
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 1: State can run the ball, well, they're just not doing

502
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: it right now. They suck at running the ball right now.

503
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 1: They have thirty one carries for sixty four yards yesterday.

504
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: There's no excuse for it. Offensive line has been a

505
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: chronic issue for them. The only really really high level

506
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: players they have there right now were transfers, and you've

507
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: lost one of them for the season. Development at that

508
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: position has been a problem. You can't change that. Right now.

509
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: But you did go and invest heavily in the tailback position.

510
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: You got two of them who should be studs, who

511
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: should be able to take over games. And if they

512
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: didn't do it yesterday, they didn't do it yesterday. You

513
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: have got to continue to lean on the run. You

514
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: do not have a good enough quarterback by any stretch

515
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 1: to look at and say it's on you. Well, if

516
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: it's on him, you're not going to achieve at a

517
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 1: high enough level of the team. This year. They were

518
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 1: bad on third down yesterday, they were bad at yards

519
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: per carry. Two point one I think was the yards

520
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: per carry. You cannot abandon the run. What you can

521
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: do if you want to ask what can we do,

522
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: then well, you preach focus, and you emphasize fundamentals, and

523
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: then you execute, and then you coach your tail off.

524
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 1: That's what you do. You do what any winning team does.

525
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 1: Not everyone who clicks in November and December and wins

526
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: the title looked exactly like that in October. And I'm

527
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: not saying you're about to hatch a dog Walker Award

528
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: finalist or anything like that, but you got to get

529
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: a minimum baseline of production there. And Chip, I'm not

530
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: telling chip Kelly anything about this. He doesn't know. Chip

531
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 1: Kelly is sitting there understanding nothing about our passing game

532
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: is gonna work if they don't at least have to

533
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: respect the run. And you ought to know that if

534
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: you watch your team. And I'm talking to Ohio State

535
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: folks who were texting me about this, it's not Xbox.

536
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: You can't just sit there in a consequence free environment

537
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 1: say oh well, just chuck it, We'll just see what happens. Well,

538
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: when you say that in real life, you don't have

539
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: a job the next spring. You're consulting, that's what you're doing.

540
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: So that's not really the direction. They're probably going to

541
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,679
Speaker 1: go up there. Nebraska though, Oh it was there. It

542
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: was there. I don't know how many of you watched

543
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,719
Speaker 1: this game, but it was there for him. I mean,

544
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: I thought Nebraska was gonna win this game late in it,

545
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: thought they were gonna win the game. It was there,

546
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,120
Speaker 1: and so they didn't grab it. But I will tell

547
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: you this, I've got a sneaking suspicion that yesterday was

548
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: really important for Nebraska. They lost a game. I don't

549
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: think history will remember this game, but maybe it should now.

550
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: I could be wrong on this time will tell, But

551
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: I think we may look back on yesterday close loss

552
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: on the road against Ohio State, and you may have

553
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: some people internally there that end up telling you, you know,

554
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,919
Speaker 1: we lost the game that Saturday in Columbus, but that

555
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: was a turning point for this team. So I want

556
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: you to listen to something that Matt Rule said in

557
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 1: the postgame, and then I'll talk about it coming back.

558
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 3: I felt like a lot of the things we talked

559
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:47,199
Speaker 3: about took cold today, and that to me is like

560
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 3: that to me is something you don't like. I feel relieved.

561
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 3: I feel despondent that we lost the game. I thought

562
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 3: we were gonna win the game. I feel beat up

563
00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 3: for the guys. I know when I say these things,

564
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 3: a lot of people will probably take them the wrong way.

565
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: I don't think most people who heard that really had

566
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: it stand out to him. Here's what I think he's saying.

567
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: What I think he's saying is they preached certain things

568
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: this past week, and for that matter, they've preached certain

569
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: things in that program about process oriented thinking over result

570
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 1: oriented thinking, and they lost a game yesterday. Sucks. What

571
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 1: he's saying, I think, and having been around Matt Ruhle

572
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: A little bit is we've been preaching, preaching, preaching. We've

573
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: planted a seed, We've watered, We've watered, we've watered, we've cultivated.

574
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: We finally saw it sprout through the surface yesterday. The

575
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: result in the moment was not the one we wanted.

576
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: But if he's right, and if I'm right about what

577
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: I think he's saying there, he's talking about an entire

578
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: philosophical and cultural shift in a program. He's talking about

579
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: a collection of humans, players, administration staff. It's just top

580
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: to bottom. If you can get a bunch of people,

581
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of humans who can perform at a high level,

582
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,479
Speaker 1: have God give an ability to do it. If you

583
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: can get them to shift the way they thought their

584
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: whole lives, in some cases from just focusing on outcome

585
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: to focusing on process, you have unlocked the key to

586
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: sustainable success. Everybody who does it organizationally understands it. Most

587
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: people don't understand it, period because most people never unlock it.

588
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: Humans aren't wired that way. Humans are wired to be

589
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 1: goal oriented, result oriented, focus on the goal, focused on

590
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: the result, focus on what you want instead of what

591
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: it takes to get it. It's just as true in

592
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: my business as it is in football. And when you

593
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 1: ever build an organization or you're having charge or running one,

594
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: you're probably there because you have learned to think a

595
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 1: different way and you have applied those principles and you

596
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 1: know they work. That's the thing about it. Matt Ruhle

597
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: has applied these at multiple stops. He knows they work.

598
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 1: It's not enough for him to know it, he's got

599
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: to put it in minds and then get that out

600
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: of them. That's what makes you worth millions of dollars

601
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 1: or makes you unhirable, not whether you yourself possessed the knowledge,

602
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: but whether you can get it out of your team.

603
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: And in many ways that means changing the way people think.

604
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: It's also why guys wash out all the time. It's

605
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: why you see can't miss physical prospects five stars or

606
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: maybe even into college five star first round, and then

607
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: they bust. Sometimes it's caused the team's not good. Sometimes

608
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: it's because of injury. A lot of times it's cause

609
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: guys never learned how to think. And it's just as

610
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: true in the business world. It's just as true in

611
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: the media world as it is in football. So what

612
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: I'm saying is let's just tuck that away when as

613
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: it relates to Nebraska, Let's tuck that away because it

614
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: could be that they do big things in twenty twenty

615
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: five and no one remembers that Saturday in Columbus. I

616
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: will probably end up parkening back to that because if

617
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: they end up winning down the road, it's probably doing

618
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: large part to some things that he is claiming started

619
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: to take hold in this week, which ironically ended in

620
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: a law. You don't always get the immediate payoff, but

621
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: long term, if he's right, they will get the payoff there.

622
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: We got to pay off with Quick Trip, you know,

623
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: so we kind of saw it take hold this past spring.

624
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,239
Speaker 1: We had a full blown recruitment. If you're new around here,

625
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: you probably you probably may have heard about it. Put

626
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: four hats on the table, and then we put the

627
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: quick trip hat on and it's just been free gas

628
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: for a bunch of folks ever since. Now I've been

629
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: telling you this, some of you don't follow me on

630
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: social I think you should at late kick Josh on Instagram,

631
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: at Josh pat CFB on Twitter. But if you don't,

632
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: let me give you a little taste of what's been happening. Colin,

633
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: do you have that screen shot? So I screenshat this

634
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: earlier today, which is the past tenseive screenshot. JP hit

635
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: me up. This is how you get free stuff from me.

636
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: This is how you get free stuff from quick Trip,

637
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: because I have full power to give away tanks of

638
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: gas courtesy of quick Trip. JP hits me up and

639
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: he takes a picture of himself in a Quick Trip

640
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: parking lot, having just shopped there and made a purchase.

641
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 1: And also, if you can't tell, or if you're listening

642
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: on podcasts, there is a Pate State Freights hat on

643
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: his dash, which he bought at peatestatematerial dot com. This

644
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: right here has earned JP a free tank of gas.

645
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: I didn't even retweet it because I wanted him to

646
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: find out this way. So that's the key. Ladies and gentlemen,

647
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: go to quick Trip, document your visit, and then post it.

648
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,719
Speaker 1: And it's that simple. I may just be handing out

649
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: free tanks of gas to you can't give it to everybody,

650
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: but I just choose. I close my eyes and I

651
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: choose at random. Except for this one. I opened my

652
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: eyes for that one. So thank you JP, and thank

653
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: you to a quick Trip for fueling the entire fall,

654
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: whole New Saturday to where we were in Vegas and

655
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: then Nashville this past weekend, which begs the question, of course,

656
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: where are we going this Saturday. Now, it's gonna seem

657
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: to you like this was an easy decision, right game

658
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: days going to Happy Valley and Big Noon is going

659
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: to Happy Valley, and well it logically, won't he be

660
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: going to Happy Valley? Won't he be going to Ohio

661
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: State Penn State. Well, I looked around, and initially it

662
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 1: seemed simple, It seemed pretty cut and dry. The more

663
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: you look at the board this week, the more I

664
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 1: think we are in for volcanic Saturday two point zero

665
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: more on that this coming Tuesday. And so there were

666
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: many places to be. This will be the most anti

667
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: climactic announcement that I have ever had, because as the

668
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: dominoes fell yesterday, once Penn State finished off Wisconsin and

669
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: the way they did it was locked in. So, yes,

670
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 1: we are going to Ohio State, Penn State this Saturday.

671
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: I'll be in New York Wednesday and Thursday. We don't

672
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: even have to fly. We can drive over to State College. Now,

673
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 1: fair warning to everybody up there. Business classes, journalism classes,

674
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: I will be on campus Friday. I will be there.

675
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: I just throw that out there because at some campi

676
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: which is the plural of campus, they like to book

677
00:33:56,640 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 1: us for speaking events. So I'm open to it. I

678
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: don't even have to change shirts. I'm open to it

679
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: if you are. But that's where we're headed. Week ten.

680
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: Let me go ahead and sweet it out. Boom. That's

681
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: where we're headed Week ten, whole New Saturday tour, heading

682
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: to State College. And what kind of game will we

683
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: get there? Who will the starting quarterback be for Penn State.

684
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: We'll talk more about that later in the show. Meanwhile,

685
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: let's get back to business here. Still got a lot

686
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: of show to go. There's a real conversation that has

687
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: to be had. We have to be honest with each

688
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 1: other here. Some of us are not being honest with

689
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: each other, even within the old Pate State family. Here.

690
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 1: Colorado beat Cincinnati yesterday thirty four to twenty three. Well,

691
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: why do I care about that, Josh? Well, Number one,

692
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: you need to know it was a pretty entertaining game.

693
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: I give it two and a half tily on a

694
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 1: one to five scale. But I don't just come to

695
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: you with a box score. I come to you with

696
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: a take. I have great news. I come with wonderful

697
00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: news tonight, and that is Colorado is a college football

698
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: playoff contender. But I also come to you with terrible

699
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: news tonight, and that is Colorado is a college football

700
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: playoff contender. It's the same news. It's both good and

701
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: bad news, because you may love this or you may

702
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 1: hate this. It all depends on your perspective. Shador Sanders

703
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 1: is a star. You know that. Travis Hunter is a star.

704
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: Probably the best player in the game, the best one

705
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,719
Speaker 1: I've seen. But most of us know this. And even

706
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 1: if you don't think they're the best at what they do,

707
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 1: if you're rational to any degree, you understand they're pretty

708
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: good at what they do. But I hope people realize

709
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 1: what's happening here. Do you watch Colorado? So I watched

710
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: this game last night, and I'm thinking to myself, what

711
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 1: a job they've done. Because last night, guys, yes, Schador

712
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 1: got his twenty five of thirty three twenty three three touchdowns,

713
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: Travis Hunter amazing talent, nine catches, one p fifty three

714
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. But you know what else they did? Paper

715
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 1: pop stat here they ran it for one hundred and

716
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 1: twenty three yards, which isn't to put him in the

717
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: top ten this week. But they couldn't do it at

718
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,240
Speaker 1: all last year. And you know what else they couldn't

719
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 1: do last year stop molasses in December defensively. But now

720
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 1: they've gone from giving up thirty four point eight points

721
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: per game to twenty two. That's good for jumping from

722
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,720
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty fourth in the country to forty fifth.

723
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 1: We call that a football team. We don't call that individuals.

724
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: We call that a football team that in the collective

725
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: is improving. The big question was new conference another year in,

726
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 1: will they improve or will the lack of traditional approach

727
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: to building a team slash program by them? It hasn't

728
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: bitten them, and they're in this They're in the Big

729
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: twelve conference title race, and that means they're a playoff contender.

730
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: And I'm not sure a lot of people put that

731
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 1: sentence together in the preseason. I didn't. I didn't put

732
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: that sentence together in the preseason. Now I will tell

733
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 1: you this, don't get stuck in the abstract, because in

734
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: the summer, you just speaking the abstract. I do it,

735
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: You do it. Anyone who's talking about this sport in

736
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 1: the summer is just talking because there are no football

737
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: games being played. So in the summer you could have

738
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: these really big, grandiose takes about what they would or

739
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't do. You could do that with any team. You

740
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: could do that any player, with any coach. But if

741
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 1: this is not the abstract, this is not August, We're

742
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: about to get into November. Now. They're a contender. They

743
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: are six and two right now. Their losses are at

744
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 1: Nebraska and against Kansas State. They got four conference games left,

745
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,799
Speaker 1: and you're looking at them right here, and I gotta

746
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 1: be honest with you, think about how different this little

747
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,919
Speaker 1: stretch of games looks as opposed to what it looked

748
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: like in the summer. At Texas Tech, Utah, at Kansas

749
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. Those last three in particular have fallen off

750
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 1: greatly from what the preseason expectation of those teams would

751
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 1: have been. Conversely, Colorado's a whole lot better than what

752
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: the preseason expectation level was. I think their toughest remaining

753
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 1: game comes up the next time they play. They go

754
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: to Texas Tech on the then Texas Tech will be

755
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: coming off back to back road trips to TCU and

756
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: to Iowa State. So they draw the Red Raiders at

757
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: the best possible time. What have you won here? You've

758
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: won nothing. You've won six games, so you've become Bowl eligible,

759
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 1: which in and of itself is an accomplishment. Deon Sanders

760
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: will probably never say it, but I'll say it for him.

761
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 1: It's a massive turnaround, massively turned around from the program

762
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: they were. He could check out today, he could announce

763
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: at a press conference tomorrow morning, I'm done. I'm not

764
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 1: coaching another game. And he has done some legendary things there.

765
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 1: And if you think that's hyperbolic, then I don't. I

766
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 1: encourage you to go watch Colorado football from twenty twenty two.

767
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what else to tell you. The other

768
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: thing is what they've earned here is they've earned an

769
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: opportunity to make November matter for different reasons. Because the

770
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: players there are about to find out something. The coaching

771
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: staff there is about to find out something, and that

772
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 1: is November is the longest month in the year. If

773
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: you're a contender for the first time. Colorado is a

774
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 1: contender for the first time. Georgia is not. Georgia is

775
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: in it every year. Ohio State's in this stuff every year.

776
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 1: This is gonna be a lot of newness for these guys.

777
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: And I know you look at that calendar and you

778
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: think it's only four weeks. When you get the pressure

779
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: and the unfamiliar territory aspect, and you get all the

780
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 1: expectation heaped on you, every day feels like fifty hours.

781
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 1: Every week feels like fifteen or sixteen days. It's really

782
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 1: amazing how quickly the first two months of the season

783
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: go by, and then how long November drags out. There

784
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 1: are teams right now that are in the conversation that

785
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: will have totally disappeared in two weeks. I don't know

786
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: if Colorado is that or not. I'm saying, in the

787
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 1: generalization of it all, there are teams right now that

788
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: are totally in this thing that you will have written

789
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: off entirely in two weeks, and it's only two games.

790
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 1: It'll feel like an eternity. Congratulate. I don't want to

791
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: say congratulations because nothing's happened yet, but it kind of has.

792
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna golf clap it coaches watching just golf clap.

793
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: There just a golf clap, and will increase the volume

794
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: of the clap as the weeks go on. Appreciate you

795
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: guys watching, by the way, if you are tuned in live,

796
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 1: if you're watching replays, if you're watching or listening anytime,

797
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: thank you so much. The charts are incredible right now.

798
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: Our numbers are incredible, and so I just ask you

799
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,959
Speaker 1: humbly to keep doing what you're doing and subscribe, whether

800
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 1: it's on podcast or YouTube, subscribe and that's all. That's

801
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: all we need you to do. No fees, no sign ups,

802
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: know anything like that. I gotta be careful with how

803
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: I talk about this next game. I think I got

804
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: to be very careful. So afford me five seconds so

805
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: I can take a sip from the chalice. Thank you

806
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:52,720
Speaker 1: so much. Oh, by the way, I'm looking for sugarle soda.

807
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 1: I've never talked about this on the show. So I

808
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: have like borderline addiction to soda, but I can't drink

809
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: it because it's loada with sugar. So it's one of

810
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,439
Speaker 1: the hardest battles that I fight is just sticking with water.

811
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 1: And I'm told reliably that there are sugar free options

812
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: out there, but they all taste like they've been filtered

813
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 1: through a jockstrap to me. So I am looking for

814
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: an option. So I can't necessarily watch the live chat

815
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: right now. I will see the replay afterwards, and I

816
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: will see the comments. You know, how to get at

817
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,920
Speaker 1: me on social just if anyone has any good options

818
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:32,280
Speaker 1: out there. Sugarless needs to be sugarless soda. I'm all ears,

819
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: I like grape, I like cream soda. I'm normal, except

820
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,879
Speaker 1: that I just don't want it to have sugar. I'd

821
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: love it to have sugar, but I can't have it

822
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: have sugar, if that makes any sense. Alabama beat Missouri

823
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 1: yesterday and it wasn't a close game, which is a

824
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 1: really novel concept for Alabama football in the year of

825
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 1: World RD twenty twenty four. Thirty four to nothing. This

826
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: is a horrific game to watch. All due respect to

827
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 1: Joe Tess and company there. This is a one shallice game.

828
00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 1: We don't even put the eye with the accent on

829
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: the end. It's not even pluralized. Just one shallice. There

830
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: you go, holding in my hand right there. Immunity. So

831
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,240
Speaker 1: there was a lot of bad in this game from Missouri,

832
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: but no, it's all bad because I watched this game.

833
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: Most of you probably turned it off in the second half.

834
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 1: Bama folks loved it. But there was one other viewer

835
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: who tuned into this game. She is a Grammy Award winner.

836
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure we found out last week. She's played

837
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 1: Austin City Limits before and she's good. She's good on

838
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: the piano. Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Sarah McLaughlin with her

839
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: special for the week. Missouri had three drives yesterday of

840
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 1: thirty yards. Three. They had seventy two passing yards, not

841
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: in a quarter, not and a half, but for the

842
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: whole game, five three and outs, they threw three picks.

843
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 1: I mean, here's its own stat line. They had to

844
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: start Drew Pine or had to play him because Cookl's

845
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 1: out for most of the game. Luther Burden the o

846
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: Weeese should be the stud receivers. They were held to

847
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 1: a combined twenty two yards. They gave up two hundred

848
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: and seventy one rushing yards to a team whose fan

849
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 1: base's main complaint was they can't run the ball. They

850
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 1: played now two ranked SEC teams. They have been outscored

851
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: a combined seventy five to ten, and the most egregious

852
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 1: crime of all, the AP still has them ranked. That's

853
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: not your fault, it's not my fault. It's not even

854
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 1: Sarah's fault. The AP will have to answer for those

855
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 1: crimes in due time, but until then, Missouri, for the

856
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 1: second time this year, hops aboard the Sarah McLaughlin special.

857
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 1: I can look at this game two ways for Alabama,

858
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: because I look at a thirty four to nothing victory

859
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,399
Speaker 1: in conference play and it's it's a good thing. It's

860
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: a very good thing. It's nice to just see you

861
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: be able to breathe in the fourth quarter. That's the

862
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,720
Speaker 1: first thing. The second thing is the run game really flexed.

863
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: Yesterday had seven point three yards per carry. Sometimes you

864
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,240
Speaker 1: just got to crank up the bulldozer. How about that

865
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 1: For a team that had struggled in an area that

866
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 1: should be a strength for them, at least for one afternoon,

867
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:09,240
Speaker 1: it came back. Now we got to wait and see.

868
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: You hear that nervousness, You hear the padding of the

869
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: paper here. That's not a paper pop, that's a paper tap.

870
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: We've got to see if there's any continuity. We got

871
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: to see if there were elements of yesterday that carry over.

872
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,879
Speaker 1: Because I'm not sold by any stretch based off this game.

873
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 1: You played a bad team yesterday that was made well.

874
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,239
Speaker 1: It was made bad by the quarterback situation. Now that's

875
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 1: not your fault. It's your job to go dominate, and

876
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 1: you did. But there were concern levels about the Spama

877
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 1: team coming into this game. And while they didn't struggle

878
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: in the game, and it can do wonders for confidence

879
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: to win a game like this, And there were really

880
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 1: good signs, just fundamental signs defensively, and I think there

881
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,959
Speaker 1: have been for a couple of weeks. Honestly, Tennessee game

882
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 1: could have gotten sideways on them, but on the whole,

883
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 1: I think there have been There's some upward mobility signs

884
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: for the defense. Those things are good. But no questions

885
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 1: got answered yesterday. So I say this in a tone

886
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 1: that sounds critical. I'm not critical of them. They did

887
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 1: everything they were supposed to do. I guess I'm more

888
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 1: talking about myself. So if I am claiming that I

889
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 1: should be drawn a lot from this game about the future,

890
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,719
Speaker 1: you know, the last four weeks of Alabama, I'm not

891
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 1: quite sure that anything about my opinion has changed. I

892
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 1: viewed them as a really flawed team coming in yesterday,

893
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 1: who had an inconsistent quarterback that I still think is

894
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: probably banged up and They're not going to admit it,

895
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:35,800
Speaker 1: nor should they, because they don't owe that to me

896
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 1: or anybody else. They're dbs in the passing game against

897
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 1: a really good quarterback and a balanced attack. I still

898
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 1: have questions about their handling of the road in particular,

899
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:50,440
Speaker 1: but just in general, being consistent enough and lowering the

900
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: amount of penalties you get per game. None of these

901
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: questions were answered yesterday, So I know I sound really

902
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: negative and critical in a win. It's not that, it's

903
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: just we'll find out. See Miami doesn't play anyone to

904
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: close the season. Bama's going to LSU in two weeks.

905
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: That's their next game, so we will find out. That's

906
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: kind of a quasi playoff elimination game of sorts. We

907
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: will find out about them in a couple of weeks.

908
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 1: If they go down there and they run the ball consistently,

909
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 1: If they go down there and thus Myron that group

910
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: of receivers can't move the ball consistently, If they go

911
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:28,720
Speaker 1: down there and are only penalized four times for forty yards,

912
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 1: If they go down there and take control of a

913
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: game against a team in total wounded animal mode, desperation

914
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 1: back against the wall, probably the toughest environment that BAMA

915
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,919
Speaker 1: will face all year up to an including Neeland. We'll

916
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: see how it goes. If they do those things, then

917
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: you can start to sell me that they may be

918
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: peaking at the right time. You know what they can do.

919
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: Peaking at the right time for this team, which is

920
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 1: still possible. Can make you look back at the Vandy game,

921
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: can make you look back at the Tennessee game and

922
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: make you look and just scratch your head and say,

923
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: how how did that happen? How is that even the

924
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: same team? See right now, people have been looking back

925
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,439
Speaker 1: at the first half of the Georgia game because you've

926
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 1: been bad since then, and they say, how did the

927
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,319
Speaker 1: first half of that Georgia game happen? Well, you know

928
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 1: you can flip that. You know you have it in

929
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,799
Speaker 1: your power as a team to flip that and make

930
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: people say, wow, this actually kind of looks like the

931
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,840
Speaker 1: team that played that first half against Georgia. You know,

932
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 1: seasons EBB and flow. Which one's the good one? Is

933
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:30,439
Speaker 1: it the EBB or No? The flow is the good?

934
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: So you want to flow. It's just time to flow. Flow.

935
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 1: Vember team trademark. That's ours, that's ours. I know someone's

936
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 1: gonna grab that down there and run with it. Immunity.

937
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: It's just time for Flowvember instead of instead of ebbing

938
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 1: too much, ebbing, not enough flowing. So good for Alabama.

939
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: They got themselves some breathing room. We saw a backup

940
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: quarterback in a game. Just novel concepts. I encourage them

941
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 1: to practice it more often, is all I'm saying. That

942
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 1: was not painful for me. This upcoming it's going to

943
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,720
Speaker 1: be painful. Thought. I was about to get a cramp

944
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: in my hamstring, Jesse. Did I tell the story on

945
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,320
Speaker 1: the show about when I was coming back from the

946
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 1: PAC twelve championship game last year and I got a

947
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:14,399
Speaker 1: cramp in the middle of the night. Did I tell

948
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 1: that story? I did? Okay, I won't tell it again. Sorry.

949
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:22,719
Speaker 1: I was just trying to kill time. I was just

950
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 1: trying to stall. I don't really want to do what

951
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 1: I'm about to do. No, no, no, no, Hold on

952
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,759
Speaker 1: a second. I use her from Channel No politics in

953
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: the chat? Are you people not already miserable enough watching

954
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: campaign adds every two seconds? You got to bring it

955
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 1: in the live chat, Perma band. If you bring politics

956
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:44,120
Speaker 1: in the live chat, the only politics I want to

957
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 1: see in the live chat is people campaigning for me

958
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 1: for college Football Commissioner, because I'm not opposed to that.

959
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,880
Speaker 1: But we're gonna we're going to escape the political realm

960
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: on this show for a little while. Here we go

961
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 1: Bring Them Young thirty seven, UCF twenty four. I woke

962
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 1: up this morning and I realized I'm part of the

963
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 1: problem and I can't do this anymore. The model has

964
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,840
Speaker 1: doubted Bring Them Young at every turn this year, we

965
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:19,800
Speaker 1: have met against them. I have kept them outside the

966
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,440
Speaker 1: top twenty five of the JP poll, and I realized

967
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 1: that it's time to make a change. And You'll have

968
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: to excuse if there's a little scratchiness in the voice,

969
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 1: if there's a little wobbliness to the words coming out

970
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 1: of my mouth. This is not easy. It's not an

971
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: easy place to be for me. I have doubted BYU

972
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 1: all year. I have not called them fraudulent or anything

973
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,600
Speaker 1: like that. I supremely respect what they've been doing. But

974
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 1: I've looked at it and I've thought, is this sustainable? Really?

975
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,800
Speaker 1: Is this style of play, is the way they're winning games?

976
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 1: Is it really going to sustain? It is sustaining. It

977
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 1: is sustaining in the last two wins have been the

978
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,919
Speaker 1: most impressive me because they weren't like plus three plus

979
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 1: four turnover games. I mean the Oklahoma State game, they

980
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,839
Speaker 1: kind of got criticized by some people. I actually thought

981
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 1: it was impressive because they didn't have any really big

982
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 1: luck factors. They just they played a game against the

983
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 1: arrested team and they won. And then they went down

984
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,400
Speaker 1: to Orlando yesterday and took carry UCF. And this is

985
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 1: a really good team, really good team. I've underrated him,

986
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 1: the Model's underrated him. And so I'm going to declare

987
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 1: a couple of things tonight. Since I technically own the Model,

988
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 1: even though it has a mind of its own, and

989
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 1: when something goes wrong it is its fault, not my fault.

990
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 1: I want the credit not to blame. Even though all

991
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: of those things are real. I have the power to

992
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 1: issue an executive override of the Model, and so we

993
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 1: already have a military override. The Model cannot be trusted

994
00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:52,239
Speaker 1: with army or navy. But tonight I am not so

995
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:56,360
Speaker 1: proudly announcing that I am issuing a Mormon and military

996
00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: override of the Model. It is not to be listened

997
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 1: to when it comes to Brigham Young, Army, Navy, Air Force.

998
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,360
Speaker 1: So you have been issued a full exemption. That means

999
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 1: when the JP pole comes out this Tuesday, I don't

1000
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,840
Speaker 1: really care what the model says. For all intents and purposes,

1001
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,360
Speaker 1: I am going to rank Brigham Young this Tuesday instead

1002
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: of power rating them. I think it's unprecedented. Jesse and Colin,

1003
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 1: I don't remember ever doing this, but it's time. We

1004
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 1: can't continue like this. Our good name is being drugged

1005
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 1: through the mud because we've got a Brigham Young ankle

1006
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,399
Speaker 1: weight attached to us right now and it's dragging us down.

1007
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 1: Is dragging us down. So Colin, I, I don't want

1008
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 1: you to do this, but I need you to clear

1009
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 1: the screen, and not just of the slider. You can

1010
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 1: keep the lower up, but I need you to clear

1011
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,480
Speaker 1: the screen of the slider. I have to do it.

1012
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 1: I have to do it. Here you go. If you're

1013
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 1: listening on podcasts, you're not missing anything. If you're watching

1014
00:51:55,480 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 1: on YouTube, I'm giving you about five seconds. Take your screenshots. Oh,

1015
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: these words are terrible to utter in this order. I

1016
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: am sorry Brigham Young henceforth known as BYU, even though

1017
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 1: I can't say the why correctly. I'm sorry it's on me,

1018
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 1: it's not on you. I know we dress the same,

1019
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 1: but we have thought much differently. So far this year,

1020
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 1: the JP poll has technically been right on you. I

1021
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,239
Speaker 1: will say that I'm not predicting games with that thing.

1022
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 1: I'm just predicting what the number on the game will be.

1023
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 1: And so it's Vegas that's been wrong. However, I am

1024
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 1: telling you at this point it's pretty safe to say

1025
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 1: Vegas has been wrong. Right. They've continuously been off on

1026
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: Brigham Young games. And I think there's pride in being

1027
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:42,799
Speaker 1: an outlier. Now this is kind of serious. I think

1028
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 1: there's pride in the best people in the world using

1029
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: every bit of knowledge and data acquisition and calibration that

1030
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:55,879
Speaker 1: they have acquired over decades of setting numbers, so professionals

1031
00:52:55,920 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 1: can bet on it and you're the outlier. Whatever you've

1032
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:05,600
Speaker 1: got is unquantifiable because they can quantify everything else, and

1033
00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 1: based on everything they've learned throughout history, they keep putting

1034
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,359
Speaker 1: numbers on your game and you keep covering them emphatically

1035
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 1: in some cases, and you're winning outright in the process.

1036
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 1: I mean, think about the kind of pride you should take,

1037
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 1: like Washington last year should have taken immense pride. Not

1038
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 1: just in winning the conference and let's see what Brigham

1039
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 1: Young does down the stretch. But Washington last year won

1040
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,439
Speaker 1: the conference and then they win the semi final game,

1041
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:32,800
Speaker 1: and then they go all the way to the national

1042
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: title game. And you got Vegas odds makers, you got

1043
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,160
Speaker 1: JP poll, you got power rating folks out there saying

1044
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:40,879
Speaker 1: and now they may be a top ten team. Hey,

1045
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 1: it's kept winning. I mean, Vegas odds makers are the

1046
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: best in the world at what they do, and they

1047
00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 1: know everything there is to know about quantifying how good

1048
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:52,479
Speaker 1: a team is. And you're the outlier to that. That's

1049
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 1: the surest indication that you've got something really special cooking internally.

1050
00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 1: And now BYU has that. So congratulations. It hurt me

1051
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 1: to do the congratulations. Let's continue several more games to

1052
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 1: get to here. Penn State beat Wisconsin twenty five or

1053
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:14,920
Speaker 1: twenty eight to thirteen yesterday. What did you think about

1054
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:18,359
Speaker 1: this game? I have some thoughts. They were down ten

1055
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 1: to seven at the half quarterback out Drew Aler goes out. Now,

1056
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 1: that didn't look very good. It didn't look very promising.

1057
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:30,280
Speaker 1: And the defense then stepped up and Bo Pribula comes

1058
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 1: in at quarterback and goes thirteen for eighty one in

1059
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:37,720
Speaker 1: a touchdown. These were the drives. It's not a stat line.

1060
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,080
Speaker 1: These are the drives he led, scoring drives thirteen plays

1061
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,680
Speaker 1: eighty one yards in a touchdown seven and a half minutes.

1062
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: And he had another nine play seventy six yard touchdown

1063
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:50,439
Speaker 1: drive that took five point fifteen. And I couldn't help

1064
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:55,080
Speaker 1: but notice some similarities in the way Colin Klein's offense

1065
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 1: took off when they put Marcel Reid in in the

1066
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 1: A and MLSU game, and the way Pence States offense

1067
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 1: took off, if you want to call it that, when

1068
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: they put bo in. And I think it's just cause

1069
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,760
Speaker 1: what he may do, what he may possess talent wise,

1070
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,839
Speaker 1: is a little bit more in the wheelhouse of Andy Kolenicky.

1071
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,680
Speaker 1: And it's not a knock on all or or anything

1072
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,879
Speaker 1: like that. It's just it may be that the elements

1073
00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:22,880
Speaker 1: that your backup possesses, while not best for the long

1074
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,719
Speaker 1: term sustainability in a one game scenario or two game,

1075
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:30,359
Speaker 1: three game scenario or a specific matchup, may work out

1076
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: for you, And it did for Penn State. Now, I

1077
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:34,719
Speaker 1: got to tell you this is one of the more

1078
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 1: impressive wins I think I've seen Penn State have in

1079
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,440
Speaker 1: a long time because of how complimentary it had to be.

1080
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,879
Speaker 1: It's a game that not many people will remember. It's

1081
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:44,840
Speaker 1: a game that not many people it's a win not

1082
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,239
Speaker 1: many people outside of Penn State probably had a lot

1083
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:50,799
Speaker 1: of respect for. It's a big deal when you're on

1084
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,879
Speaker 1: the road, you're playing a very well coached team who

1085
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,399
Speaker 1: had had a resurgence. By the way, Wisconsin was playing

1086
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,080
Speaker 1: the best football. And you went in there and you're

1087
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,799
Speaker 1: a touchdown, you're a little under a touchdown favorite, and

1088
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,840
Speaker 1: your quarterback goes down and you're trailing at half. To

1089
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: get up off the deck and to do it in

1090
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,680
Speaker 1: such a complimentary fashion, this is a big game. It's

1091
00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:12,400
Speaker 1: a really big win because what it does is it

1092
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 1: gives you a little wiggle room. See now you come

1093
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,120
Speaker 1: home and you play Ohio State this week, and you

1094
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 1: want to win. But what if you don't, What if

1095
00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:21,040
Speaker 1: you don't? You know how different it is being in

1096
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 1: late November arguing the validity of an eleven and one

1097
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 1: Penn State as opposed to a ten and two Penn State.

1098
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: It makes a huge difference. So we will see them

1099
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,480
Speaker 1: this Saturday, against Ohio State. Have no update on the

1100
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:39,160
Speaker 1: availability of Drew Ala right now. Dennis Sutton was out too,

1101
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 1: I think yeah, so they may have lost some guys.

1102
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:43,880
Speaker 1: Ohio State's lost some guys as well. Look at their

1103
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:47,400
Speaker 1: left tackle situation. You need to look no further than that. Texas.

1104
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,960
Speaker 1: I was at this game. Texas twenty seven Vandy twenty four.

1105
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 1: What an effort for Vanderbilt man. They they never let

1106
00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,240
Speaker 1: the game get away from him. And I have told

1107
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,399
Speaker 1: you before and I will continue to tell you, if

1108
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,319
Speaker 1: you could see Texas in person, your jaw would hit

1109
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 1: the ground. Physically. They're as impressive as any team in

1110
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: the country. And when you watch them from field level,

1111
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 1: every time they throw one of those bubble screens, one

1112
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:15,880
Speaker 1: of those quick outs, it looks like it's one millimeter

1113
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 1: from getting taken to the house. And you've got to

1114
00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 1: be so disciplined, your eyes have to be trained so

1115
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:24,840
Speaker 1: well not to get sucked in by that stuff, because

1116
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 1: they'll hang fifty on you if you're not careful, and

1117
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:31,520
Speaker 1: they didn't yesterday. So credit Vanderbilt for that. And the

1118
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:36,439
Speaker 1: other thing is Texas won the game, so you should

1119
00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 1: be happy, right Well, not all Texas fans are because

1120
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 1: rightfully so, they understand a win is not a win

1121
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 1: in college football. A win is a win in one case,

1122
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 1: but in the other case of predictability of applying what

1123
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:55,360
Speaker 1: we just saw today and looking down the road. You

1124
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 1: look at quinn Ewers, and you look at how star

1125
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: Ca has to call the game with him, and you

1126
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 1: look at penalty still being an issue for this team,

1127
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: and you look at an offensive line being inconsistent, and

1128
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: you look at, just from a situational standpoint, how frequently

1129
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,760
Speaker 1: over the past two weeks teams have had short fields

1130
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,600
Speaker 1: to score on you. It's really amazing to look at

1131
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,400
Speaker 1: your quarterback's not taken over games. It puts a ceiling

1132
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,480
Speaker 1: on you. It puts a ceiling on what you can achieve. Now,

1133
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 1: just like we've talked about with Bama, Ohio State and

1134
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 1: these other teams, they're all flawed. These are Texas's relative flaws,

1135
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: still the envy of most of the country. Still time

1136
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: to work on them and improve them. Texas has right

1137
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:41,160
Speaker 1: now with Georgia the best odds to win the conference.

1138
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 1: They are tied with the best odds to win the

1139
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:46,440
Speaker 1: conference at FanDuel. You know who number three is? Texas?

1140
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:48,040
Speaker 1: Texas A, and though Texas A and m is number

1141
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:52,080
Speaker 1: three ls US number four, aren't those interesting odds. Miami

1142
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 1: made easy work of Florida State last night, because everyone does.

1143
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:59,040
Speaker 1: This game was never in question. Miami ran it very well.

1144
00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 1: They actually ran for two thirty and three for two fifteen.

1145
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 1: So what what in the game where cam Ward just

1146
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 1: took over, which he has the ability to do. But

1147
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,840
Speaker 1: they played a good game last night. There's not much

1148
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 1: to draw from it. I mean, Florida State's a dead

1149
00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 1: dead team right now. We'll see if they're a dead program.

1150
00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 1: They're a dead team. Miami's got Duke at Georgia Tech,

1151
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 1: Wake Forest and at Syracuse coming up. It's their fault

1152
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 1: if they don't go four and oh in that stretch.

1153
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 1: They will not be tested against quality ranked competition again

1154
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:33,480
Speaker 1: until the conference title game, where we assume Clemson will

1155
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 1: be waiting for them, which is brave because there's still

1156
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 1: a lot to be decided. And oh, by the way,

1157
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 1: Pitt hasn't lost a conference game yet, so we'll see

1158
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 1: SMU won conference losses. Well, FSU's lost, they're one and seven.

1159
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,040
Speaker 1: I have nothing else to say about him, not wasting

1160
00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:55,120
Speaker 1: time on him right now, Notre Dame smoke Navy fifty

1161
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 1: one to fourteen. Now the AP is going to tell

1162
00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:00,000
Speaker 1: you that this was a ranked win for Notre Dame.

1163
01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:04,320
Speaker 1: The JP pole will not tell you that because although

1164
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:07,600
Speaker 1: we don't trust the model when it comes to Navy

1165
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,600
Speaker 1: and Army and whatnot, Navy was not a top twenty

1166
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 1: five team. They were posing as one, but they weren't one,

1167
01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:16,480
Speaker 1: not close. Notre Dame got up fourteen. Oh, it was ballgame.

1168
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: I know what I'm going to be accused of. I

1169
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 1: shouldn't have even said it like this. I'm going to

1170
01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:24,480
Speaker 1: be accused of discrediting the Notre Dame win. I'm not

1171
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:27,840
Speaker 1: doing that. Not doing it. Let me shout this from

1172
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:31,360
Speaker 1: the rooftop because I actually saw some Notre Dame fans

1173
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:35,440
Speaker 1: questioning this today. Notre Dame is unequivocally in the playoff

1174
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 1: if they don't lose again. I don't care if they

1175
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,280
Speaker 1: lost in Northern Illinois. I'm just whether I even agree

1176
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,080
Speaker 1: with it or not. And I do agree they should

1177
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 1: be in if they go eleven and one and they

1178
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:50,320
Speaker 1: add wins against two they got they got Florida State Army.

1179
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,440
Speaker 1: Army is another ranked win. I think Army is a

1180
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:54,320
Speaker 1: much better matchup for Notre Dame. By the way, they

1181
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 1: go to USC at the end of the year. If

1182
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 1: they go eleven and one, guys, I don't you don't

1183
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: need to like it or not. They're going to be

1184
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 1: in the playoff case closed. Uh ole Miss Ole Miss

1185
01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 1: in Oklahoma was an interesting game. We loved Oklahoma plus

1186
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: twenty and a half number was way too big and

1187
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:17,640
Speaker 1: Ole Miss beat them twenty six to fourteen. So Ole

1188
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 1: Miss gets the win, Oklahoma gets the cover. This is

1189
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,280
Speaker 1: a deceptively good win for ole Miss. I got to

1190
01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 1: tell you there were a number of factors that I

1191
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:27,320
Speaker 1: had to see. I had to see the level they

1192
01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 1: played at, because the last time you saw them they

1193
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 1: lost to LSU and then they went into the by

1194
01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:36,360
Speaker 1: I didn't know where their mentality would be. And secondly,

1195
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 1: what people expect in college football, the verse happens a

1196
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 1: lot of times. So with Oklahoma, they fired their oc

1197
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 1: they go back to Jackson Arnold at quarterback, and that

1198
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 1: sounds like it should be a recipe for turmoil. It's

1199
01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:54,840
Speaker 1: only a recipe for turmoil if things are going good.

1200
01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 1: If things are as bad as they can get, they

1201
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 1: don't get worse. There is nothing but good things that

1202
01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 1: can come from moves when you're already at the bottom

1203
01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:08,320
Speaker 1: of the barrel, and Oklahoma offensively has been at the

1204
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 1: bottom of the lowest barrel in the history of this

1205
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 1: sport recently. So they fired the coordinator, there's nowhere to

1206
01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:16,360
Speaker 1: go butt up. They make a change at quarterback, I

1207
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 1: don't even care if it's the guy we've already seen,

1208
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,360
Speaker 1: there's nowhere to go butt up. Plus, there were rumblings

1209
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,880
Speaker 1: that Jackson Arnold had had a really good week of

1210
01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:25,280
Speaker 1: practice out there. And so what I do in that

1211
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:28,680
Speaker 1: situation is I look at the number that odds maker

1212
01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 1: set and it's twenty and a half. And I know

1213
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 1: the version we've seen of Oklahoma up until now is

1214
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,680
Speaker 1: what's baked into that number. But these moves they've made

1215
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:41,160
Speaker 1: in the aggregate can do nothing but shorten what that

1216
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 1: number should be. So the market didn't adjust, and so

1217
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 1: we hopped on the points and we took them, and

1218
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,600
Speaker 1: we didn't need them, but we took them. But Ole

1219
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:50,440
Speaker 1: Miss dealt with that yesterday. They won't get credit for

1220
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,320
Speaker 1: it because Oklahoma's been bad this year. Oklahoma fought him

1221
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:56,080
Speaker 1: yesterday and so Ole Miss won. So what did they do.

1222
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,760
Speaker 1: They earned the right to go up to Arkansas. Arkansas

1223
01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 1: is not dead either. They got off the deck and

1224
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 1: smoked Mississippi State on the road yesterday. Arkansas had every

1225
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 1: reason to lay down and they didn't. So Old Miss

1226
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 1: is in a two week stretch here that the skeptics

1227
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 1: out there will call very inconsequential because you played an

1228
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 1: unranked Oklahoma team and an unranked Arkansas team. If they

1229
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 1: go to and oh here, it's impressive to me. And

1230
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 1: then they earned themselves the right to play Georgia with

1231
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:26,000
Speaker 1: a lot on the line, and then they got to

1232
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 1: go to Florida. These are very losable games, but they

1233
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: got a shot to win them all too, and to

1234
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 1: a large degree, they will determine. They will determine that outcome. Now,

1235
01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 1: george is a better team than them, so I'm not

1236
01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:41,920
Speaker 1: going to say that about the Georgia game, But the

1237
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 1: rest of those games, it's up to Old miss how

1238
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 1: those games go. They are very much in this thing though.

1239
01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:53,280
Speaker 1: And also Indiana is still undefeated. Indiana yesterday beat Washington

1240
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 1: with their backup quarterback, and the totality of the performance

1241
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,280
Speaker 1: of that team was really amazing. Like I just said,

1242
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 1: with Oklahoma in college football, the beauty of it is

1243
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,320
Speaker 1: a lot of times something will happen and the result

1244
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 1: is the total opposite of what you would expect logically.

1245
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: It's why I always love betting on teams when their

1246
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 1: backup quarterback has to play. I love betting on teams

1247
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 1: when they fire coaches the week after, because the aggregate

1248
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 1: of the result from that is oftentimes radically different than

1249
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,840
Speaker 1: what the logical mind would expect. Because college football is

1250
01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,440
Speaker 1: not logical, it makes no sense. So in college football,

1251
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:35,680
Speaker 1: your starting quarterback goes down, first off, there's usually not

1252
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 1: a huge drop off to the backup. This is not

1253
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 1: the NFL, and especially at a program the caliber of Indiana. Secondly,

1254
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:48,080
Speaker 1: and most importantly, the dynamic in good locker rooms is

1255
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:50,840
Speaker 1: such that when your starter goes down and then you've

1256
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,120
Speaker 1: got a whole week of knowing we're not going to

1257
01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:57,680
Speaker 1: have him. I said, aggregate a lot, but the aggregate

1258
01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:02,280
Speaker 1: of the collective performance raised itself to answer for that

1259
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 1: oftentimes makes the result you get from that team equal

1260
01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: to or maybe even better than you would have expected

1261
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 1: if the starter was in That's what happened with Indiana.

1262
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,560
Speaker 1: Tavin Jackson won eleven of nineteen one hundred and twenty

1263
01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,760
Speaker 1: four passing yards, he had a touchdown, he had a pick.

1264
01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:18,920
Speaker 1: They ran for one hundred and eighty eight, they had

1265
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,919
Speaker 1: a defensive score. They played complimentary ball, and they won

1266
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:23,600
Speaker 1: a big game. And now they go to Michigan State

1267
01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 1: this week, and I think they expect him back. So

1268
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 1: the undefeated teams, now, we don't have a ton of

1269
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:30,880
Speaker 1: them left. We got Oregon and Penn State, Miami, and

1270
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:33,520
Speaker 1: then there's Brigham Young, and then there's us. Excuse me,

1271
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 1: there's Iowa State and Indiana and Pittsburgh An Army. And

1272
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure that's what everyone expected. I'm sure that's what

1273
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,520
Speaker 1: everyone expected in August. I know you guys enough. Also,

1274
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,120
Speaker 1: let me reiterate and I'll talk about this more on Tuesday.

1275
01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,360
Speaker 1: I think a volcanic Saturday is coming, and last time

1276
01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 1: we issued a warning about this, everything broke loose. So

1277
01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:58,760
Speaker 1: I am issuing this is just a watch. Let me

1278
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:02,680
Speaker 1: just issue a watch, volcanic watch or whatever they call those.

1279
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to issue one of those for this Saturday.

1280
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 1: I'm monitoring it closely. I am monitoring odds on FanDuel

1281
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 1: as well. I'm not done with the show. By the way,

1282
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:15,640
Speaker 1: we still have the entire AP pole to talk about.

1283
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 1: But FanDuel doesn't care about the AP nor should they.

1284
01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:23,520
Speaker 1: It's it's on its last leg. Fanduels not though, and

1285
01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:26,080
Speaker 1: we appreciate them because they are the exclusive odds provider

1286
01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:29,240
Speaker 1: of the show. They are also the presenting partner of

1287
01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 1: the Rama Noudle Express, which just had a terrible day yesterday.

1288
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 1: Do you understand we were on Utsa minus seven and

1289
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 1: a half. I checked the score. I think it was

1290
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 1: forty two to seventeen. I think that's what I saw,

1291
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: so I didn't check the score again. Utsa lost in regulation.

1292
01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 1: They led forty two to seventeen. I think it was

1293
01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:55,520
Speaker 1: they lost in regulation like Tulsa just doesn't even need overtime.

1294
01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:57,720
Speaker 1: They come back and beat them forty six to forty five.

1295
01:06:58,160 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 1: You are dead to me right now. I'll forgive you

1296
01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:06,680
Speaker 1: in time. But you guys, it's not my fault. Okay,

1297
01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:08,840
Speaker 1: let me just let me just let me just explain

1298
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:10,600
Speaker 1: to you how this works. If you're new around here.

1299
01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:17,400
Speaker 1: I have never lost a prediction. I am perfect predicting games.

1300
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:20,880
Speaker 1: Kids and coaches and officials screw it up all the time,

1301
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:23,560
Speaker 1: and they mess up the pick and they turn it

1302
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:27,240
Speaker 1: into a loss. But I'm not wrong. I just deserve

1303
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,040
Speaker 1: the credit. It is the kids and coaches and officials

1304
01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 1: who deserve the blame because they don't come through in

1305
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 1: key moments. And so this is the attitude that we

1306
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:39,240
Speaker 1: have around here, and it is the attitude that makes

1307
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:42,000
Speaker 1: me tell you Tennessee minus fifteen and a half is

1308
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,960
Speaker 1: one of my best bets for this week. TCU plus

1309
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:47,080
Speaker 1: two and a half is another best bet for me

1310
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 1: this week. And look, Tennessee should roll Kentucky and TCU

1311
01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:54,320
Speaker 1: is a team that's a short underdog that should be

1312
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:57,800
Speaker 1: favored against Baylor. And if they win, that's great, But

1313
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 1: if they don't, it's on them. They win, it's on me.

1314
01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:03,400
Speaker 1: If they lose, it's on them. And that's that's the

1315
01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:06,720
Speaker 1: only way to do this stuff, humbly, it's the only

1333
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:22,960
Speaker 1: here the apopole drugs pure drugs this week. I cannot

1334
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:27,599
Speaker 1: believe what I am looking at. This is not worth

1335
01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:29,680
Speaker 1: the paper that we wrote it on. See I don't

1336
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 1: print I wrote, I write it. I have no words,

1337
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:36,400
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna try. So. This is gonna get worse

1338
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:40,000
Speaker 1: as we go on. But number one and number two

1339
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 1: are okay. Like it starts off well enough. Oregon's number one,

1340
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 1: George's number two. It's a prove it week for Penn State. Now,

1341
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,120
Speaker 1: I want you to notice something. Everyone stopped for a second.

1342
01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: Look at what Director Colin just put on the board here.

1343
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:56,800
Speaker 1: Penn State's number three, Ohio State's number four, and what

1344
01:09:56,840 --> 01:09:59,200
Speaker 1: have we talked about for a long time? People call

1345
01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:02,600
Speaker 1: James Franklin overrated, and then I say, he's not overrated,

1346
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,400
Speaker 1: he's properly rated. And then they say, oh, he never

1347
01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:09,040
Speaker 1: beats Ohio State. And then I say, but when are

1348
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,920
Speaker 1: they rated above Ohio State? If he's overrated, that means

1349
01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:16,639
Speaker 1: he's losing to teams that they're rated above. He's only

1350
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,679
Speaker 1: losing to teams that are rated higher than him. How's

1351
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:21,839
Speaker 1: he overrated? And then they just shout nonsense words. Well,

1352
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:24,559
Speaker 1: we have a little bit of an issue because it

1353
01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:27,719
Speaker 1: is Penn State Ohio State week now and Penn State's

1354
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:32,320
Speaker 1: got home field advantage and they're rated above Ohio State.

1355
01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:38,400
Speaker 1: So James Franklin needs to win this thing Saturday or else.

1356
01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:42,320
Speaker 1: I cannot use my usual go to defense mechanism of well,

1357
01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:44,519
Speaker 1: he's beating the teams he's rated below, he's beating the

1358
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:48,240
Speaker 1: teams he's rated above. Just something to note there, Just

1359
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 1: something to note. Miami is still at fifth, No problem.

1360
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:54,840
Speaker 1: Texas dropped. I want you to just bookmark this concept.

1361
01:10:55,280 --> 01:11:01,880
Speaker 1: Texas beat Vandy yesterday close and dropped. Interesting, right to

1362
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:05,200
Speaker 1: be continued. Tennessee's at seven, No problem. Notre Dame bumped

1363
01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:07,320
Speaker 1: up four points, you know, because they got a ranked

1364
01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 1: win and all. I'm not knocking Notre Dame can already

1365
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:15,000
Speaker 1: tell because sometimes there's just coincidence in the tone that

1366
01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:17,160
Speaker 1: I take multiple times about a team in a show,

1367
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:22,479
Speaker 1: and that gets misconstrued into he hates us and I don't.

1368
01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 1: I just think it's a little laughable sometimes the way

1369
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:29,879
Speaker 1: this stuff works. Okay, BYU is at nine, totally deserved.

1370
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,000
Speaker 1: I have turned over a new leaf with Brigham you on,

1371
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: got no problem with it. Texas A and M's at ten.

1372
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:37,840
Speaker 1: They're up four spots. What is the ceiling of that team?

1373
01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:42,120
Speaker 1: I think the toughest game for their season to date

1374
01:11:42,479 --> 01:11:45,120
Speaker 1: is this Saturday. That's how serious I'm taking that game

1375
01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:49,160
Speaker 1: at South Carolina. Clemson is at eleven. So is Iowa

1376
01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:53,120
Speaker 1: State because somehow we have ties in the AP pole.

1377
01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:57,280
Speaker 1: No problem with the placement of either. Indiana is at thirteen.

1378
01:11:57,520 --> 01:12:01,560
Speaker 1: Can someone please explain to me the bastions of integrity

1379
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:04,360
Speaker 1: over there voting on the AP. Why is Indiana not

1380
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:08,040
Speaker 1: a top ten team? Notice you're claiming to do rankings,

1381
01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:11,919
Speaker 1: not power ratings. So this team's undefeated in a major conference,

1382
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:13,759
Speaker 1: you know good and well. If that was a block

1383
01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:17,320
Speaker 1: M or a Buckeye logo, they'd be top five. I'm

1384
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:21,640
Speaker 1: going full Tim Brando on you right here. Pure playoff privilege,

1385
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:25,680
Speaker 1: even in an expanded playoff era. The wag of the

1386
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:29,040
Speaker 1: finger there, shame on all of you. Bama's at fourteen,

1387
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,599
Speaker 1: they're going into a bye week, then they play LSU.

1388
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:34,280
Speaker 1: Well know everything we need to know. Bois's at fifteen.

1389
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:37,639
Speaker 1: Saw them in person Friday night, the quintessential football team,

1390
01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:41,720
Speaker 1: no NFL scouts, standing there on the pregame, gawking at

1391
01:12:41,760 --> 01:12:43,680
Speaker 1: folks like they were. The Texas game the next day

1392
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,519
Speaker 1: that I went to. Just a really good, really impressive

1393
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:52,280
Speaker 1: football team. LSU's at sixteen they dropped eight spots, so

1394
01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,599
Speaker 1: I think they're underrated now from a power ratings perspective.

1395
01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:58,439
Speaker 1: Jppole is still going to have them higher. Tuesday, Kansas State.

1396
01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm good with them at seventeen. There is big, big

1397
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 1: detachment with Pitt. Pitt is the new Brigham young for me, now, Pitt,

1398
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,479
Speaker 1: I don't have him in the top thirty in the

1399
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:11,240
Speaker 1: power rating, but the AP has him number eighteen. Why

1400
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:14,040
Speaker 1: is Pitt not higher? So I ask again, if you're

1401
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:16,479
Speaker 1: not claiming to do the power rating thing, if you're

1402
01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:20,000
Speaker 1: just doing rankings based off merit, why is Pitt not higher?

1403
01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 1: Why is Indiana not higher? People need to choose a

1404
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 1: lane over there. Ole Miss is at nineteen, Big Detachment Team.

1405
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:30,719
Speaker 1: I've got him top ten in fact, in a power

1406
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:34,559
Speaker 1: rating format, I have got ole Miss. Yeah, they're going

1407
01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:36,599
Speaker 1: to be top ten this week. I'm looking at our

1408
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:38,960
Speaker 1: raw numbers. We got to do injury calibration and stuff,

1409
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 1: but yeah, they're going to be top ten. AP has

1410
01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:47,679
Speaker 1: him at nineteen. Ole Miss dropped a spot. Why wow? Anyway, Look,

1411
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,280
Speaker 1: that's not even by far the most egregious thing that

1412
01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,000
Speaker 1: I'm about to talk about the next two minutes. SMU

1413
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:56,840
Speaker 1: is at twenty. SMU. I need you to understand something

1414
01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 1: about what happened last night. Most of you didn't watch

1415
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:04,920
Speaker 1: SMU goes to Duke. SMU was our best bet of

1416
01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 1: the week minus eleven and a half. They won by one,

1417
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:11,679
Speaker 1: so they didn't cover. So you may think to yourself. Oh,

1418
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:14,280
Speaker 1: you picked that one wrong. No, well we nailed the pick.

1419
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 1: SMU is minus six turnovers and still won the game.

1420
01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:21,760
Speaker 1: If you attribute three points to three and a half

1421
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:24,960
Speaker 1: points per turnover, which is standard variation of application of

1422
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:30,200
Speaker 1: a turnover as it relates to value, then we probably

1423
01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,200
Speaker 1: figure SMU is somewhere between a seventeen and a twenty

1424
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:37,760
Speaker 1: point winner in an even turnover game. That's the one

1425
01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 1: that will aggravate you when you watch them go minus

1426
01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:43,080
Speaker 1: six turnovers. And the thing about me watching a game

1427
01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:46,280
Speaker 1: is I am very spiteful. So if I bet a team,

1428
01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:49,519
Speaker 1: case in point UTSA. If I bet a team and

1429
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:51,160
Speaker 1: I'm lay in points and I find out you're not

1430
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 1: going to cover for me, I'm already suffering. I want

1431
01:14:54,479 --> 01:14:56,839
Speaker 1: you to suffer. So I want you to lose, outright.

1432
01:14:57,320 --> 01:15:00,439
Speaker 1: And SMU had the audacity to turn it over six

1433
01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:04,080
Speaker 1: times and still win. This is not this is nothing

1434
01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:07,000
Speaker 1: personal Againstrhet lash Lean company out there, But the spiteful

1435
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:09,600
Speaker 1: side of me thought you deserve to lose. And if

1436
01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:11,880
Speaker 1: you listen to Rhet Lashley after the game, which I did,

1437
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:16,160
Speaker 1: friend of the program, of course, he sounded as apologetic

1438
01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,599
Speaker 1: as I've ever heard a coach a sound for a win.

1439
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:21,360
Speaker 1: It was almost like he was a I know he wasn't,

1440
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:23,479
Speaker 1: but it was as close as a coach has ever

1441
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:27,120
Speaker 1: come to sounding ashamed that they found a way to

1442
01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:28,560
Speaker 1: win a game. But they did find a way to

1443
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:30,760
Speaker 1: win him. So that's good. All right, this is where

1444
01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:34,360
Speaker 1: it's gonna go off the rail. So just Colin, stick

1445
01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 1: with it as long as we have to. Army is

1446
01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:40,479
Speaker 1: number twenty one, that's fine. I don't trust the model

1447
01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:44,880
Speaker 1: on the service academies. Washington State's at twenty two. All

1448
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 1: due respect to Washington State that probably don't belong there.

1449
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:53,360
Speaker 1: You know what, forget that. It's fine. Washington State being

1450
01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:55,080
Speaker 1: there is fine. I'ma have Ryan Leaf texting me before

1451
01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:58,400
Speaker 1: the show's over. Washington State being there's fine. I don't

1452
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:00,120
Speaker 1: even want to spend time on that because of what

1453
01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:03,000
Speaker 1: we have to talk about here. Colorado's at twenty three.

1454
01:16:03,840 --> 01:16:07,880
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with that. Colorado is I'm

1455
01:16:07,880 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 1: just gonna spoil it for you. Colorado is going to

1456
01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:12,679
Speaker 1: be in the JP pole this week. Illinois at twenty

1457
01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:16,120
Speaker 1: four not even close. We've got we got Illinois in

1458
01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:19,040
Speaker 1: the forties. I think, yeah, Illinois's not close. I mean

1459
01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 1: Illinois got drug yesterday, had a shot to go out

1460
01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,479
Speaker 1: there and represent themselves well. Oregon, which may be the

1461
01:16:24,520 --> 01:16:27,959
Speaker 1: best team in the country right now, drug them. Missouri

1462
01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:33,639
Speaker 1: is ranked. Missouri has been outscored seventy five to ten

1463
01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 1: against the only two ranked conference opponents that they have played.

1464
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:40,840
Speaker 1: Missouri is a bad football team right now. We have

1465
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:43,679
Speaker 1: not had them in the top twenty five for five weeks,

1466
01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:48,200
Speaker 1: and these fools at the AP pole still have them

1467
01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:51,519
Speaker 1: twenty fifth. Now here's the real fun part. The same

1468
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:55,040
Speaker 1: people who committed this crime against college football. Missouri is

1469
01:16:55,080 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 1: still ranked. They don't have Vandy ranked. Vandy plays t

1470
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:03,680
Speaker 1: axis to winning a field goal so much so that

1471
01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:06,120
Speaker 1: the AP looks at it and all it's infinite wisdom

1472
01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:07,960
Speaker 1: and says we're gonna drop Texas for that. But what

1473
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,679
Speaker 1: we're not gonna do is we're not gonna elevate Vandy.

1474
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:17,559
Speaker 1: The audacity, the audacity of you people hashtag to still

1475
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:22,160
Speaker 1: have Missouri ranked here, just release a statement that says

1476
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 1: you don't watch the sport. Just release a statement that

1477
01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:29,719
Speaker 1: says we don't really care. Here are some rankings anyway. Period.

1478
01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:35,320
Speaker 1: The date Sunday, October twenty seventh, twenty twenty four. This

1479
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:40,519
Speaker 1: is stupidity, just just stupidity. Missouri ranked still, I got

1480
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:44,240
Speaker 1: nothing against Missouri. They're not good. They're not good. They're

1481
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:46,120
Speaker 1: not in the top twenty five. They shouldn't be in

1482
01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:48,040
Speaker 1: the top thirty. I'm gonna tell you where I have

1483
01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:50,320
Speaker 1: them right now, raw numbers. I got Missouri thirty ninth

1484
01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:53,160
Speaker 1: in the country. That may be high. Missouri is not

1485
01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:56,120
Speaker 1: a good team right now, but still top twenty five.

1486
01:17:56,160 --> 01:17:58,240
Speaker 1: Man still top twenty five. And you know what, for

1487
01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:01,000
Speaker 1: all the conspiracy theorists out there, I don't even know

1488
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:02,880
Speaker 1: how to push back on it, because I know what

1489
01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 1: you guys are gonna say. Bama's probably gonna find a

1490
01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:07,639
Speaker 1: way to keep themselves in this thing at the end.

1491
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 1: And then the playoff committee is gonna look at them

1492
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:13,160
Speaker 1: beating Missouri like a drum like they should have yesterday,

1493
01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:14,760
Speaker 1: and you know what they're gonna call it. I'm gonna

1494
01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:17,439
Speaker 1: sound like Danny Canell. They're gonna call it a ranked win.

1495
01:18:18,680 --> 01:18:21,880
Speaker 1: You know why, because by the letter of the AP law,

1496
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:26,760
Speaker 1: Bama over Missouri yesterday was a ranked win. A disgrace,

1497
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:31,479
Speaker 1: an absolute disgrace. That paper's going in the trash and

1498
01:18:31,560 --> 01:18:34,479
Speaker 1: so too should the AP rankings for this week. All

1499
01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:36,680
Speaker 1: we can do is release the JP Pole Tuesday. That's

1500
01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:39,080
Speaker 1: all we can do. I appreciate you guys watching. We
