It should 4 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:18,080 Speaker 1: be a celebration, but unfortunately somebody had to ruin it 5 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: with some postgame commentary. We will get into all of 6 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 1: the controversy coming up here in just a couple of 7 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: moments from now.

It's a celebra ration time. Let's get 19 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: out of the way. There you go, Brady, there you go. 20 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna get them all fired up that Brady Quinn. 21 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: Come on, Brady no Quinn, you you've got to play 22 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: both the Notre Dame and Penn stated we'll let you 23 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: have this. Come on you guys big time. Well, I 24 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: don't know about a big, big way right huge. I 25 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 1: think I think it was. If you're gonna have a 26 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: game like that, mask, it's best to come out on 27 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: top of state. Quin Well, it was. It was a 28 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: bigger loss for Florida State than it was a big 29 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: win for number nine ranked Notre Dame. I mean, right, 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: but but things at this point, I mean, you can 31 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: throw them out the way outside of Alabama. Of Alabama, 32 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: we're shooting number one by floridaway right now based on 33 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: how they looked. Hey, but what's crazy is is Florida 34 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: State actually looked like Florida State last night. I mean, 35 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest with me. Miss field goals, yes, yes, 36 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: that was good. They were good enough for a miss 37 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: field goal to matter. M I mean, if you really 38 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: think about they hooked, they pushed it wide left. It 39 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: usually historically it was white right, which I thought was 40 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: very peculiar that they did not even set it up 41 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: or high. They were so busy talking about Buddy's leg 42 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: and his leg and his need. They talked about it 43 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: for an entire the entire time he was in the game, 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: the entire time. Not not what plays he made, not 45 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: what it meant to the game or whatever. It's just 46 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: all about the kids. Leg I thought it was going 47 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: to be interesting for them to parallel that moment of 48 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 1: the game to all of the like those you're talking about. 49 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: Notre Dame kept Florida State from winning national national title 50 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: off of some of these miss kicks, right, and they 51 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: didn't say anything about it. In the Miami Florida State 52 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 1: games were always wide right, wide left. It always said 53 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: it came down to it um. But that was that 54 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: was Notre Dame. Like they're a famous moment in time 55 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: where Florida State misses and loses the note. So they 56 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about Mackenzie Mountain's you know, return to action. 57 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a big moment of our I don't 58 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: know why you're so heartless about it. Why do you 59 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: have so we need to execute those people. Come on, 60 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: people who did not say that, They didn't say that. Wait, 61 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: there was a lack of execution on that moment. It 62 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: was a miss moment they needed to execute the people 63 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: that didn't do it. Can I be honest with you 64 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: about that quote. Yes, I was more offended by the 65 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: fact that coach Kelly used a quote from a USC 66 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: head coach than I was with what he said, Like 67 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: that was more offensive. Look, I heard they didn't even 68 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: take the plane back. They didn't need you apparently the game, 69 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, I just I mean, is this is this 70 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: the world we live in now? I understand we're all soft, 71 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: everyone's offended, but come on, Like, if you don't know history, 72 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: you don't know the background of it, go educate yourself, 73 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: you know, go educate. And I think for most Notre 74 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: Dame fans, their perspective is we were up eighteen. We 75 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: were up eighteen. Florida State did nothing, nothing to come 76 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: back into that football game. I hate to rain on 77 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: their parade. There was a lack of execution. There was 78 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: a lack of defensive play called LaVar. I know you 79 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: watched the game. There had to have been a point 80 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: where Florida State continually ran the ball down their throat 81 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,119 Speaker 1: and you're looking at Notre Dame playing with a five 82 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: man box, five man around the line of scrimmage to 83 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: stop the run. Well, obviously they're gonna run the football 84 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: down your throat if that's your defensive game plan by 85 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman. So there was a lot of reasons. I 86 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,679 Speaker 1: think you could look at that game and say Notre 87 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: Dame gave a lot of that away. The Michael Mayer 88 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: drops early on a third down late in the game too, 89 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: where I would have put them in position to end 90 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: it in regulation. There was a lot of things I 91 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: think you could look at and go there instances where 92 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: Notre Dame could have put that away and they didn't. 93 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: The fact that Florida State hung in there. Credit to them, 94 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: credit to Mike Norvell. But I think I think both 95 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: sides are looking at that film today probably pretty disappointed 96 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: some of the execution. Yeah. Well, I'll say this, out 97 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: of everything that I didn't remember from that game, Cayl 98 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: Hamilton is a name that I will remember from that 99 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: name from that game. I haven't seen a guy and 100 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: I love doing this because people get so upset when 101 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: I do it. It was Sean Taylor esk. Yeah, to 102 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: go from one like if you understand football, for a 103 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: kid to have the savvy, the awareness, the understanding, and 104 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: then the athleticism and the ability to do what that 105 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: kid did on that play where he was on the 106 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: opposite hash. He was oppos the safety and quarters. He 107 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: was planning the opposite hash, red the quarterback all the 108 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: way through, turned the jets on because the quarterback was 109 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: committed to doing what he was gonna do and got 110 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: a pick on the opposite side sideline and then took 111 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: his helmet off. It was so you wish it was 112 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,679 Speaker 1: so you wish it was as you wish as it gets, 113 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: and it was in a Notre Dame uniform. But let 114 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: me tell you something. That kid is a guy. He 115 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: is a guy. I was so impressed with him. Man, 116 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: he just kept showing up well, and he has since 117 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: he got to Notre Dame. I remember seeing him a 118 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: couple of years ago as a freshman and I told 119 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: people then, I said, he's gone and enjoy him while 120 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: you got him, because he's gone in three years. He's 121 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: he's got those natural ball and stinks. And that's the 122 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: funny thing is that particular play he bailed out the 123 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: cornerback on that side of the field as he did 124 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: because he'd undercut it. Yeah, and it usually never happens 125 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: like it never happens where the backside safety is running 126 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: across the field, like maybe the safe field on that 127 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: side of the field, because he's got his quarters deep, 128 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, this deep quadrant of the field. Never see that. 129 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: So the way he played, honestly, I think, kind of 130 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: build out Marcus Freeman at times. You know, it really did. 131 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: If you look at that debut four Notre Dames defense, 132 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: which I think if you look at their old defensive 133 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: coordinator Clarkley went to Vanderbilt, they just lost to East 134 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: Tennessee State, I think so maybe he wishes he could 135 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: come back at this point in time, But I just 136 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: that game as a Notre Dame fan as much as 137 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: you're happy to come away with a win, and there's 138 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: some things to build off of. Clearly Jack Cone, the 139 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: way he played the downfield passing game, what about Kevin Austin. 140 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: What about some of these receivers. They've gotten out that 141 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: they can stretch the field vertically, There's something to be 142 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: said about that. But concerns about the old line going 143 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: into the game still coming out of it defensively. All that, 144 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: there's there's a lot of things to work out. I 145 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: think for a ten days aspirations to get back to 146 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I just love that they keep giving the 147 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: acc that work. Just keep giving them the work. Just 148 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, we'll let you in for one year. Cool, 149 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: we're in your championship game. And we beat Clemson last year, 150 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: and then they open up this year and they beat 151 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: Florida State. By the way, the bomb be bowden fedor 152 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: on the field. Nice touch. That was awesome. Now you 153 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: mentioned the Brian Kelly comments. So John McKay had a 154 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: legendary quote years ago. I think this is when he 155 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: was the coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers when they 156 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: were owing sixteen. They were a winless football team, and 157 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: John McKay said, they asked him, so, what do you 158 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: think of your team's execution? He said, I'm in favor 159 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: of it? All right, So one of one of the 160 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: great all time coach lines in history of football. But um, 161 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: Brian Kelly afterwards spoke with ABC and tried to give 162 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: his version of it, but it came out like this, 163 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: I'm a favor of execution. Maybe maybe our entire team 164 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: needs to be executed after tonight. I mean, we just 165 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: didn't execute very well. Just think in love with trying 166 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: to play on execute it. Look, it's it's it's but 167 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: there are gonna be people. He looked into her eyes. 168 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: He was trying to it was really funny. He was 169 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: really trying to like charm her and shoot us out 170 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: at her. And it was a bad moment. It was 171 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: like one of them Joe looking up at her Katie 172 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: George is tall man. Yeah, it was more like, look, 173 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: he was all looking up in her, ays like, I 174 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: just want to kiss you. Well, I just I just 175 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: want to kiss you in the face and the mouth 176 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 1: not going to go that far. I just think we've 177 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: we've we've gotten to a point where like you can't 178 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: try to be funny, you really can't, because everyone gets 179 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: offended by something Like I think in that instance, you 180 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: just give credit to the opponent and then you you 181 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: compliment Mackenzie Milton. You know, they knew what he was 182 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 1: overcoming to come into that game, and they knew that, 183 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: like that was gonna be something that you know, even 184 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: the opposing you know, coach should acknowledge, you know what 185 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: he overcame to give himself an opportunity to play and 186 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: then jump into that game in that spot and play well. 187 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: Like I think it's the interesting thing moving forward for 188 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: Florida State is if you win the game, the decision 189 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: next week for who your quarterback's going to be versus 190 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: Jacksonville State. No, no, no if if. If Florida State won, 191 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: I think it's easy. Yeah. But because they lost, now 192 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: I think you have to look back and go all right. 193 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Jordan Travis did help get us, yeah, and 194 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: and Mackenzie Milton helped as well. But regardless whoever starts 195 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: next week, you know they're gonna ball like they're playing 196 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: against a lesser opponent. You know they're gonna play well. 197 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: So it's almost like whatever decisions they make, they're gonna 198 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: have to ride that out for a little while because 199 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: of who their opponent is. And I think how good 200 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 1: that guy is going to look. So I just think 201 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: that would have been more of the you know, give 202 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: credit storyline everything else to it to a team that 203 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: played him tough and maybe the spirit of Bobby Bowden 204 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: was there. You know. It's funny, my mom hit me 205 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: up before the game. I completely forgot about this because 206 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: we had talked about Bobby Bowden before we played him 207 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: my freshman year and we got absolutely drummed. Back in 208 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: two thousand and three, they came to South Bend. What happened, 209 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: Crafonso Thorpe I think set a single game record for 210 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: like receiving yards against US. One of the bull Wears 211 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: was doing like those back flip things you linebackers do. 212 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: I just actually, I'll never forget in blitz pick up 213 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: one of our running backs. I think it was Ryan Grant. 214 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: He went to take on a lineback and the dude 215 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: just jumped over him. Like. I was like, you, I'd 216 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: never seen anything like that before. Um. But after the game, 217 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: my film right there you go, yeah, the same, You're right, 218 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: You're right, all right. But Bobby Bowden sent me a letter. 219 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: H He had a handwritten letter and just kind of 220 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: told me to keep my head up, keep working hard. 221 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: You know, he could kind of see that, you know, 222 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: the greatness and all that. So it was it was 223 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: just cool to be able to Like, my mom helped 224 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: me relive that. She's the one who kept that note 225 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: I completely forgot about. And so before the game she 226 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: called me and just we had a quick conversation. She 227 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: was kind of reading through it and she was like, 228 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: you know, what a special man to be able to 229 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: recognize that in another Another player on another team. Granted 230 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 1: they won, so it's kind of probably easy to write 231 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: that letter, but that's what I think should have been 232 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: the conversation after the game, at least for coach Kelly. Yeah, 233 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: agree with that. I think that's a great take on it. 234 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: And you know, for what it's worth, we could break 235 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: down to x's and those. We could talk about aspirations 236 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: and and what what's to come and what they need 237 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: to work on. But all in all, that was a 238 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: win that wasn't a tremendous win for college football. Man. Yeah, yeah, 239 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: because that. Let me tell you something on a on 240 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: a holiday evening where you get to hang out and 241 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: do different things. I mean, my house is all over 242 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: the place right, Like, everybody started in front of TV 243 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: watching football. Next thing you know, you got people out 244 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: on the on the back playing Monopoly. You got people 245 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: over here playing you know, video games. You got people 246 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: over here, you know, eating food. Yeah, I got that 247 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: many people. Thanks for the invite here that Brady, it's 248 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: a little attle harder for me to get there. Yeah. 249 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: I did some really really nice chicken. I made some 250 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: nice chicken. I baked it first, and then you know, 251 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: I honey did honey barbecue did up with my special 252 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: honey barbecue mixture, and then I let it sit in 253 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: the refrigerator for about twenty five minutes, and then I 254 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: then I grilled it up and I put it on 255 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: some rice. So it was like it was really good. Uh. 256 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: But but I digressed. The point of the matter is 257 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: is that there were so many different things that could 258 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: have took place after you had an entire slate of 259 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: games that were exciting. That Georgia game, Georgia Clemson game exciting. 260 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: There were so many exciting football games that had taken place, 261 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 1: you know, the day before heading into a Sunday game, 262 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: and you get inundated with thinking that, oh, there's no 263 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: NFL on, you know, like I'll find something else simple 264 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: to do. Ditta die blaise blah. A couple of games. 265 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 1: Come on, you're watching this game, and you watched all 266 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: four quarters. Yeah, and that's why you even had the 267 00:13:55,160 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: chance to even get upset at hearing Chip Chip Kelly 268 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: the hair coach Kelly he well, he's not upset at all. Uh. 269 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: But to even hear those quotes to begin with, Like, 270 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 1: let's take a step back and let's just look at 271 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: the fact that Florida State and Notre Dame being in 272 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: a competitive game and a prime time slot delivered. Yes, 273 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: it was a delivery. I mean it would have been 274 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: nice if it would have delivered. You know, minus seven 275 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: and a half would have would have been that would 276 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: have been always come back to betting with Yeah, that 277 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: would have been sweet, wouldn't it. That's the frustration for 278 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: all those laid the seven points or seven a half. 279 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: You know where you were is when they were up eighteen. Yeah, 280 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: you were beside yourself with the defense with just I 281 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: mean it was just like listen, I understand the humidity. 282 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: Michael Mayer looked like his pants were no longer gold 283 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: like like it looked like that. That's one of those 284 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: days where you could just go ahead and let it 285 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: go like you had to go to that's the secret. 286 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: That's the secret, Leavar. Like a lot of those guys 287 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: when they were out in those gold Aunt's baby, they 288 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: just let it go, Leavar. Man, that tells why you 289 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: go to Notre Dame hold on to be able to 290 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: man it's safe. Hey, if so, let me ask you this, 291 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: because I had a number of bets out. If you 292 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: and me are betting between Penn State Notre Dame and 293 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: playing one another. Obviously one side's gonna be favored. Are 294 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: you betting straight up or you giving points? Oh that's 295 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: a good one because a bunch of these Florida State 296 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: guys were like, no, I want the points. I was like, 297 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: so you're going that straight up? Anytime I would bet anybody, Like, oh, 298 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: you're talking like if we're boys and we're betting. Yeah, yeah, No, 299 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: I'm betting straight up. I'm not giving you no points 300 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: because like that, to give points is to qualify that 301 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: we're better or you're better, and I want the points, Like, nah, 302 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: I'm betting you like we're gonna beat you. So Brian 303 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: McFadden Danny Cannell, both Florida State of lums, we had 304 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: separate bets and they both want to points. And I'm like, man, 305 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: that really sits well with you, like you winning a 306 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: bet even though your team loss. Yeah. Good. So we 307 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: had two separate bets. There was a bet on the 308 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: point spread and there was a bet straight up. And 309 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: so the bet straight up is those guys have to 310 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: wear my jersey doing some TV hits coming up here 311 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: the next week or so. I gotta find a way 312 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: of getting my jersey to both of them, but we'll 313 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: figure it out. It is the Dan Patrick Show.

So I gotta tell you 357 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: so then, Brady, you were there. Wisconsin Penn State was 358 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: one of the best college football games I've seen in 359 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: a long time. And I'm not saying that as niberbole. Everything, 360 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: the atmosphere, the style of play, the teams, all of it. 361 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 1: I thought it was fantastic from start to finish. Loved 362 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: every minute of it. I definitely loved the atmosphere of 363 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,400 Speaker 1: the environment. I don't know that I'm coming away looking 364 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: at that game quite as quite as impressed with how 365 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: it went. And I think that's only because not that 366 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: I needed not that I needed yeah, not that I 367 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 1: needed more offense. It was more of looking at the 368 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: frustration of Wisconsin, how they go about throwing the football 369 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: meaning nothing and leavar you could speak to this as 370 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: a defender. Nothing mirrors one another like they run. They'll 371 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: run their various run plays right, and they've got an 372 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 1: assortment of you know, man blocking gap blocking zone blocking schemes, 373 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: but they never have anything other than a boot off 374 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: of it. So as a defender, you're seeing certain personnel groups, 375 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: certain formations, you know what to expect because there's no 376 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: play action off of that. And then when they want 377 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: to throw, it's it's a predictable down and distance and 378 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: they just put them in dropback and they're asking Grahams 379 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: to throw to and really they don't do a good 380 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 1: job of spreading the field out to create bigger windows 381 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: like we saw Penn State. Dude, not My frustration with 382 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: Penn State was the fact that they waited until the 383 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: second half. They always wait to open it up, always wait, 384 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: and it made no sense, like you're you're watching that 385 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: first drive out of half, going where was this in 386 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: the first half? Pain That was more of the frustration 387 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: from it. But dude, that atmosphere gives me chill sticking 388 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: about right now. You know this year and the fans, 389 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: and I think I mean that played a portant last 390 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: night's Notre Dame game. They're in Tallahassee, Like people forget 391 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: how big of an impact they make as fans, either 392 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 1: you're helping the home team or trying to obviously stop 393 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: the away team and make it differ call for them. 394 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: It definitely played a factor I think in that game. Yeah, 395 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 1: and listen to go into Madison again, I looked at 396 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: it from the standpoint we could have had more offense. 397 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: I would have liked for us to have more offense. 398 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: If you look in the stat book, it really if 399 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: you didn't look at the score, you would think that 400 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: Wisconsin won the ball won the ball game by looking 401 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: at the statistical categories. But man to go into Madison 402 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: and win in that environment the first game that might 403 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: have been maybe, and I don't want to take away 404 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: from from the the amazing effort that took place from 405 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 1: Penn State, but that might have been the only week 406 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: that we would get them in Madison. If we get 407 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: if we get into week eight or seven or six, 408 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: they may have those things cleaned up by him and Brady. Yeah, 409 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,479 Speaker 1: you know, like for me, I look at it like 410 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: this one. The more film you get, that's when you 411 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: know what type of coaching staff you really have is 412 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: by their ability to look at those things. Are they 413 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: diagnosing it the same way we're sitting here talking about it. 414 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: Are you self scouting? What are you what are the 415 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: things that you're in need of doing that are going 416 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: to make you better moving forward. And the teams that 417 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: are able to take that information and use it and 418 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: improve their teams are the teams that you see get 419 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: better and better as the year goes on. This has 420 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: been a team that has generally improved as the seasons 421 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 1: have gone on in years past, which makes them a 422 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 1: scary team and the ten moving forward, they will give 423 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: that might be their only loss in the conference this year, 424 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: honestly speaking, So I'm glad we got them early, to 425 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: be honest. Yeah, No, I mean you could tell too, 426 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 1: like just being down in the sidelines, the sense of 427 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: just kind of understanding how big of a matchup that was. 428 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: Like if you look at the Big Ten West and 429 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: maybe even some of the teams outside of just o 430 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: Higo State who could essentially challenge them or at least 431 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 1: make it to the Big Ten championship game, it's Wisconsin 432 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: and probably Iowa, especially the way they looked. And so 433 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: that is a huge one right out the gate on 434 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: the road to be able to get that win, I 435 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: don't think it can be understated. And let's not forget 436 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: too how last season started for Penn State. Five. I 437 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: mean you kind of. I mean you almost wonder as 438 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: a player and maybe even as a coach, and you 439 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 1: wonder yourself if it happens again. You start off oh 440 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: and one, you're going, oh no, here we go again. 441 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: It's the same as last season. But they don't have 442 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: to worry about that now moving forward. I mean, just 443 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: the vibe there when the build up four jump around 444 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: to start the fourth quarter came up. I mean, I 445 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: don't know what it was like in person, but on television, 446 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: the way Fox laid out and let the whole scene 447 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: play itself out, I thought was whoever the production wise, 448 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 1: whoever the producer was theard Fox that put that together. 449 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: Phenomenal job. He captured everything. Chuck McDonald, Chuck mcdonston, producer, 450 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: does a tremendous job him, Rich Dewey the director. Those 451 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: guys are studs. Obviously, they're in the position they're in 452 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: for a reason. But you know what was interesting about it, 453 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: and this kind of went under the radar because it's 454 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: not as big of a tradition. So they sing build 455 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: me up, Buttercup, yeah the quarter. Yeah, so they sing that, 456 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: you know, they building a buttercup by the foundations, And honestly, 457 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: that was like it almost was like yeah, like people 458 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 1: kind of who were looking around and I like, I 459 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: looked at Liner and Rob Stone. I said, dude, I 460 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 1: forgot I've called games there. This is another little tradition 461 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: that goes under the radar. But like the players on 462 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,239 Speaker 1: the field, we're singing it. Guys were dancing to it, 463 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: like even both teams really and it was just one 464 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: of those things where you're like, this is cool, man, 465 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: we got fans back. It feels like things are back 466 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: to normal in the sports world and there's nothing like 467 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: college football. So that that moment, I think actually ramped 468 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: things up for when jump Around when it came time 469 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: for them, bro oh my, my memories a jump around 470 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,719 Speaker 1: are so nightmares. And I loved it. I love the 471 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: fact that it was as dope as it was, but 472 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: it was not a dope outcome like it there was 473 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: a different type. And all I could do was like, 474 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: you know how you have those like memories like get 475 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: in the back of your head, like when you fell 476 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: off of something or you hurt yourself really bad, and 477 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: like something something that you've seen it scarred you for life, 478 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: and like when it comes like something that comes remotely 479 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: close to it or it's the exact same thing. You 480 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 1: freeze up. Yeah, I couldn't even enjoy it the way 481 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: I really wanted to enjoy it as a fan, because 482 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: I froze up. Like when it came on, I was like, 483 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: oh God, we're gonna get our We're gonna get our asses, kid, 484 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. And I was frozen, and I was like, 485 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: oh god, oh oh no, because because that happened. Okay, 486 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 1: because for people that are listening, you've told this story 487 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio this before. How how House of 488 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: Pain came on. We were dropping the hammer. We were 489 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: dropping the hammer on Wisconsin. We would we were beating 490 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: them so bad. We hit on Dang so hard, so early, 491 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: so often. He just went into the locker room like 492 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: I'm done for today. I'm done. Like he I didn't 493 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: think he was coming back out on God, I know 494 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: he came out before this, and he came back into 495 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: the game.

He actually left the 517 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: game for a little bit and then he ended up 518 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: coming back. But he walked by me. I kid you not. 519 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: He's huge and he looks like a grown ass man.

He 521 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,679 Speaker 1: I was like that, thank god, I'm not playing anymore. 522 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't remember. I don't remember guys looking like grown 523 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: ass men at that age. He who He walked by 524 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: and came back and I was and I was like, 525 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: all right, I don't know what they did in the 526 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: locker room, but he looks like he's ruddy to roll. 527 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: Now he was. He was. He was limping on his 528 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: way in. He came back out of that thing. Absolutely, dude. 529 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: It was yeah, yeah, I remember what I said. It 530 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: was like from heaven, yes, yes, toward all rains down 531 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: from the heavens. It comes down in the form of 532 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: a missile jet right to the butt. Interesting. Do you 533 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: guys know that how jump around became a tradition? No? Now, 534 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: maybe I've got this wrong, but what I was cares 535 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: at radio. Nobody's gonna fact check you. I think it 536 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: was the men's swimming team at Wisconsin had snuck into 537 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: the PA booth. And this is back in like what 538 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: the early nineties or something like that, and they had 539 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: they had played like House of Hey, and it was 540 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: like all coordinated, but they basically got in there, locked 541 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: themselves down and just started playing it in between the 542 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: third and fourth quarter. And then it just it just 543 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: became a tradition every you know, every every point after that. 544 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: And I think it was against Purdue, like a Drew 545 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: Brees Purdue team, and that's that's when it started. And 546 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: it was all because of them, like breaking into the 547 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: PA announcers booth to do this so kind of funny 548 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,719 Speaker 1: that it's stuck. Everything is crazy. Shots out de Troy Vincent. Boy, 549 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: the way you you was talking real bad, real bad 550 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: to me, real real mad hit talking about you could 551 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: cook better than me. You're showing your steers and all 552 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 1: that stuff while I'm on air, and and you're talking 553 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: about what the Badgers we're going to do to the 554 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: Nittany Lies. But but we are, baby, I know you're listening, Troy. 555 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: We are. We are. Can I do, by the way, 556 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: can I defend the game? Play? All right? I know 557 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: I know all these people out there wanting, you know, 558 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: games in the forties and fifties. Let me tell you something. Then, 559 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 1: it was so nice to have a defensive football game 560 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: for once, no score going into halftime, sixteen ten. That's 561 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: old school football. And for everybody that complained that there 562 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: wasn't enough offense. Look, you had you had balls thrown downfield. 563 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: I don't know who the safety for Wisconsin he had 564 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: a bad couple of plays in a row. I'm not 565 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: here to call anybody out on the air, but it 566 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: seemed like he had a bad couple of plays in 567 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: a row. But there were there were passes downfield. There 568 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: there was some offense in that game. You had, you know, 569 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: your special teams, gaffs and whatnot. But I thought the 570 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: game that is my perfect football for me. I don't 571 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: need all the fancy stuff. Keep your your big twelve 572 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: sixty point apiece scores. Give me the big ten and 573 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: a sixteen ten game to play out a national TV 574 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: like that all day, I will take you many entertaining 575 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: like that was an entertaining game. They were. Oh they 576 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: were in scoring positions so many times and they jacked 577 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: it up. I mean, you had a field goal, you 578 00:30:54,240 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: got it blocked by seventeen fumbles on down in a zone. 579 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: They were again they were running the ball effectively against US. 580 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean they were moving the ball effectively up and 581 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: down the field and just couldn't get it in. That 582 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: to me is the type like I know, I don't 583 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: want them to be able to do that in the 584 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: first place. Right, it's like a great defensive scheme. You 585 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: can't do it in the first place. But if you do. 586 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: What's the one thing they tell you, Brady when you 587 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: when you're playing the game, the hardest place to be 588 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: able to score is in that rid zone because everything shrinks, 589 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: everything is tighter. It becomes a phone booth type of deal, 590 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: and it's like, here we go, who's going to outdo 591 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: who in the rid zone? And Penn State won the 592 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: rid zone game. That was I was happy. I was 593 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: happy because a lot of the conversation I had coming 594 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: into the year, some of them were not glowing conversations 595 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: about what our team was going to possibly look like 596 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: coming into this season just because of last year. Well, 597 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: you do know, we had two number one on draft 598 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: picks off of that defense that are not there anyway. 599 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: Usually when you if you're not Alabama or Clemson or something, 600 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: usually when you have a team outside of like the 601 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: most elite teams and they have two number one draft 602 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: picks or more on a team, you are not going 603 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: to be as good. You're not going to be very good. 604 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: That defense looked way better. Now our offense has gotta 605 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: they gotta do better, and you gotta get Johann Dotson 606 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: and involved, and you just got to really really figure 607 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: out how you get him the ball. But otherwise, I mean, 608 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: Noah Cane and all those guys, I think they get 609 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: going as this season goes. If they can get if 610 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: they can get that offense to launch sooner than later, 611 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: they really could. This really could be the opportunity we 612 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: come close to beating Ohio State. We probably come as 613 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: close as anybody in the ten to beating Ohio State. 614 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: We generally give the game away where it will be 615 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: up last year, not so much the years prior to 616 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: uh We usually give them the best game and have 617 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: an opportunity to win. This could be a year if 618 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: they continue to improve. You gotta wait and see, but 619 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: it could be competitive against Ohio State, especially the way 620 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: Ohio State's defense looked. I think my only concern with 621 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: Penn State, honestly is it's not even defensively, even though 622 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: they got run on a little bit, it's their offensive line. 623 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: Like that group was the thing that it made me 624 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: feel like, especially early in the game, Sean Clifford was 625 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: kind of running for his life. But you know, funny 626 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: by the way linebacker you was very present, man Brooks. 627 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: That dude's stim him. He was flying around making plaise Smith. Yeah. Yeah. 628 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: But the secondary was what was impressive. You know, Jakwan 629 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: Brisker that point we talked about Kyla Hamilton's That was 630 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,959 Speaker 1: a heads up play by by Brisker obviously to get 631 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: the interception. You know, what's that Lackawanna y to like 632 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: become the pipeline. You know who has a son playing 633 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: safety at Lackawanna right that LaVar Arrington be on the lookout, 634 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: stay in West Virginia, go to Wakawana for for transpor 635 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: I flew back with Joey Porter Junior. He was on 636 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 1: one of my flights back or Joey Porter Senior. I 637 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: should say, what about that story though his you know 638 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: his daughter, but the way his sun played, his sun 639 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 1: played outstanding that whole Tom Ronaldy because he just joined 640 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: the crew. That's what he does, man, He combines sports 641 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: and then just he makes you want to cry. I 642 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: was thinking, I was like, I was so thankful they 643 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 1: didn't try to come to us on set because I 644 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: was all teared up. Man you know, watching that whole 645 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: thing and thinking what a neat, neat story, and then 646 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: getting the chance to see Joey and his wife afterwards 647 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: and all that. It's just it made it all real. 648 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: Every time Tom Ronaldi comes on television, I reach for 649 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: a beer because I'm like, God, this is gonna be 650 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: a rough one.

Like they're just something about it. 654 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna create like a Tom Ronaldi app 655 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: where I can just have him voice over everything for 656 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: the rest of eternity.

Man, I don't know 694 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: what it is. Oh, I definitely did. Yeah, I don't 695 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: know what it is. That jump around story have my 696 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: nerves all over the place. I don't know what it was. Man. 697 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: You look you look light? Thank lean, Thank you lean 698 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: and mean thank you. Um all right, you know they 699 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: say coffee is a natural dioretic, so they say interesting, 700 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: so they don't go in there for another very good 701 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 1: all the way personified here on this show. By the way, 702 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 1: not good news for the Dallas Cowboys. Week one of 703 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: the NFL season is here. We're gonna have all sorts 704 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: of fun stuff with that on Fox Sports Radio this week. 705 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: But not fun stuff for the Dallas Cowboys. As Zach 706 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 1: Martin their stud offensive lineman is going to be out 707 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: for the Week one opener on Thursday night against the 708 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You've already got Dak Prescott, who I mean, 709 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,919 Speaker 1: I don't even know what percentage he is, but he's 710 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: probably not one hundred percent based on what the preseason. 711 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: When you've already got some questions, then you're gonna go 712 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: into Raymond James are going to raise a banner. It's 713 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 1: a big time matchup to open up the season, and 714 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,720 Speaker 1: Brady Dak Presscott, you know, one of his top offensive 715 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,240 Speaker 1: lineman is now out. Is that what I do in football? 716 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: Ray's banners? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, leader or not a full 717 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 1: time All Pro. It's it's it's a bit concerning, Yeah, 718 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 1: if you don't have one of your best offensive lineman, 719 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: not only in the ground game to take some the 720 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: pressure off of Dak with Zeke Elliott and those guys, 721 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: but also just protecting Dak in general. I mean, we 722 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: keep hearing whether it's whether it's his lower body or 723 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: his shoulder, which seems to have been the concern at 724 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 1: least throughout training camp in preseason. Well, either way, I 725 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 1: don't think you want him running for his life, and 726 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: I don't think you want him taking any unnecessary hits, 727 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 1: especially to start off the season and knowing what he's 728 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: going up against in a defensive front. That granted, the 729 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,839 Speaker 1: Kansa Chief's offensive line was banged up, but still they 730 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: had dudes running for life, Patrick Mahomes in particular. So 731 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sure you necessarily want to start off week one, 732 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 1: after you signed back to this huge contract to not 733 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: have one of your better offensive lineman and I'll be 734 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: able to protect him the way you need to. So 735 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: this puts the Dallas Cowboys offense and kind of a 736 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 1: tough spot in my opinion, compared to where I think 737 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: you're looking at the where they would have been otherwise. 738 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: And just to be clear, it's because he's on the 739 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen list, right, I didn't. I didn't clarify that 740 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: he's on the COVID nineteenteen list. Apparently he is vaccinated, 741 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: but because of the return to play protocols, he will 742 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: not be back and cleared in time to be a 743 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: part of this game. Crazy Yeah, and listen, I I'll 744 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: look at it this way. This is more so a 745 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,240 Speaker 1: hit on the run game, right, It's an interior lineman, 746 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:50,439 Speaker 1: It's a guard. It's his right guard that is significant 747 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: to Ezekiel Elliott getting going, getting established. They're going to 748 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: have to figure out how to sprit this game out 749 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: and not play it in a box. I always tell people, 750 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 1: I said, there's it's interesting. There's there's the phone booth approach, 751 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:09,280 Speaker 1: like amano, amano, you come, we come, We're gonna knuckle 752 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: up and we're gonna see who who wins the battle 753 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: of attrition. Or you spread them out and you say, 754 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 1: you know what, We're not even gonna make this thing 755 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: a thing in this game where we're going to try 756 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 1: to keep you off balance. They have the skilled players 757 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 1: to be able to do just that. Now, with that 758 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: being said, we did see how it took place in 759 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: game plan wise in the super Bowl with a team 760 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: that can spread you out and do a lot of 761 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: different things, a lot of creativity on offense side of 762 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,720 Speaker 1: the ball. But I gotta be honest with you coming 763 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: into the season and looking at the way this offensive 764 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: line is, I guess the way they're discussing them to 765 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: have Lyell back, to help have Tying back and have 766 00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: them healthy, I think your biggest concern is going to 767 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: be those guys coming off of the edges for this 768 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay bucket in their team. So if they're able 769 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 1: to hold up on the outsides, I think that they 770 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: should be okay with Deck in the pocket, you know, 771 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: suing those guys on the inside. I'm you know, is 772 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: a Dominican going to to dominate and get through the 773 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 1: interior three? I would take a better chance on feeling 774 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: good about not having Zach as good as he is 775 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,839 Speaker 1: rather than not have one of those books and one 776 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: of those those anchored UH tackles on the field. Tampa 777 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 1: Bay two years in a row has been by far 778 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: and away the best rush defense in the league. Been good. 779 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: So you can't You're not gonna be able to run 780 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 1: the ball this listen. I'll just say right now, this 781 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be a blood bath, all right. This is 782 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 1: going to be a massacre on Thursday night. Tampa Bay 783 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: is going to mutilate the Dallas Cowboys. This isn't even 784 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: gonna be close, I think. So, yeah, you come on, man, 785 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 1: like all this is set up for failure, Brady, This 786 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: is all set up for failure for the Dallas Cowboys. 787 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:09,280 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I mean, maybe maybe I'm not willing 788 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 1: to just write off the Cowboys. It's fun. If anybody 789 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,320 Speaker 1: got too much talent this they got too much talent 790 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: and don't don't Tom Brady teams typically start off slow. Yeah, 791 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. There's the potential for they 792 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: might not start off slow this year, though, But but 793 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 1: what that is? I don't this This Dallas team is 794 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: going to be better than what maybe some may think. 795 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: I'm just being honest. I think they'll be better on 796 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 1: I think they'll be much better on defense. I don't 797 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: think you've seen what type of defense they're going to 798 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 1: be until this week. How close to one hundred percent 799 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: is Dak Prescott? I don't know, See I think I 800 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,439 Speaker 1: think I don't know. Okay, Brady, I'm not even jumping 801 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 1: into that. I don't listen. Okay, aren't you guys a 802 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: little bit skeptical? You're not a little bit skeptical about concerned? 803 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:01,240 Speaker 1: Skeptical is wrong. I'm concerned about if he's as healthy 804 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: as he needs to be. Yeah, well, listen, look, this 805 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: is gonna be We got another couple of hours to 806 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 1: play with um and I do have I'm good authority. 807 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: Brady Willis, Does she have assistant?
