Perhaps we should have 10 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: listened to Kirby Smart last summer and he doubled down 11 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 2: on his position October tenth. 12 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 3: Where am I going with this? 13 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 2: Well, if you watch your little college football today, for 14 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 2: those of you who thrive on havoc and turmil and 15 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: mayhem and chaos, well you are in your glory so far. 16 00:00:53,280 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 2: Well you know who's gone down right, Well, Oregon's going nowhere, 17 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 2: Miami went down, Georgia went down. And the beauty of 18 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: this college football twelve team playoff is it should be 19 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 2: twelve times the mayhem and turmoil and chaos that we've 20 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: ever seen in the past. For one simple reason the 21 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: Kirby Smart pointed out in July. He said, there is 22 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: one equalizer that's going to make massive upsets this year possible, 23 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 2: and lo and behold on October tenth, Vanderbilt upset Alabama 24 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 2: and we're off and running now. He said, Sure, the 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 2: transfer portal is big, but there's one thing that transfer 26 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: portal has had more than ever that can change things immediately. 27 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 2: You combine nil with a transfer portal, and yes, you 28 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: can get the right quarterback to build your team's offense around. 29 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: And that's the single most important piece of any good 30 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: football team. Prior to the combination of the transfer portal, 31 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 2: in the ability to play after transferring, it would have 32 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: taken multiple years in many cases to rectify just wrong decisions, 33 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: one wrong decision made a quarterback. Now it can be 34 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: done instantly. Enter Diego Pavia, who beat Vanderbilt, who beat 35 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,839 Speaker 2: Alabama that day, And lo and behold the irony. It's 36 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: not coincidence, it's irony. I always cracks me up when 37 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: people say, hey, I saw Mike at the game. Ironically, 38 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: I saw Mike at the game. No, that's not irony, 39 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: that's coincidence. Irony is when the firehouse burns down. You see, 40 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: it was ironic that when Georgia transferred to Old miss 41 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: Or transferred. Look at me Freudian slip. When Georgia traveled 42 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: to Old Miss Saturday, they got on the field with 43 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: Lane Kiffen, who actually proclaimed himself two years ago the 44 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 2: Transfer King. However, it's probably a safe bet that Lane 45 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 2: Kiffin and the group at Old Miss are having a 46 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 2: big time laughs laugh now because. 47 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 3: He can call himself the transfer King. 48 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 2: Well, he's sitting down the throne now because the way 49 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: that Mississippi constructed that team with a host of transfers 50 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: really highlighted Kirby Smart's words and how prophetic they are, 51 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: how much how rare was Mississippi's triumph of this nature. 52 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: They posted the highest AP ranked win at home in 53 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: school history. Mississippi's never beated a team ranked that highly. 54 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: It's also, by the way, the first loss for Kirby 55 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: Smart Smart to a team other than Alabama since twenty twenty. 56 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 3: Now, Lane Kiffin. 57 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: Like him or not, he's a big control and you're 58 00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 2: probably here for it. 59 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: We get a kick out of him, but he's. 60 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: Typically presided over high powered offenses, and certainly the high 61 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: power offenses he's had in Oxford the last few years 62 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: have gotten a lot of attention. But Lane Kiffin's no dummy. 63 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: He realized he needed to beef up the defense after 64 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: losing by thirty points to Georgia last year. 65 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: He gets an elite. 66 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: Pass rusher from Florida and a big time defensive tackle 67 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 2: from Texas A and M. Both of them were a beast. 68 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: The pass rusher's name is Princely and he was. He 69 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: sacked Carson back twice, forced a crucial fubble in the 70 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. And oh, by the way, the dB from 71 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 2: Texas A and M Walter Nolan. He was a major 72 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 2: factor in limiting Georgia to fifty nine rushing yards. Oh 73 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 2: did I mention a quarterback? You see, because Lane Kiff 74 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: found his quarterback. Yes see, Jackson dark has been there 75 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 2: a couple of years, but they Steve had ordered from 76 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 2: USC two years ago. He's leading old Missus offense, battled 77 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 2: back from an early ancle injury through for a couple 78 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: hundred yards of the score. That's not the point. Mississippi 79 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 2: was never in doubt in that game. And let's face it, 80 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: we are off and running and the pairs BYU has won. 81 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 3: And they'll escape Utah. 82 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: But if you followed, if you follow the brackets as 83 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: I'm really following as closely as I can even if 84 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: Byu'd lost, they still would have had a shot at 85 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: the playoff. It's my understanding they would be tied with Colorado. 86 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: And yet tell me you're not rooting for Colorado right now. 87 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 2: As it stands Oregon's won, Miami's two, there's still two 88 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 2: even though they lost Texas three and BYU four. But 89 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 2: what has changed is the you know, the five through twelve. 90 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 2: Penn State moves to eight. They now have to play 91 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 2: the ninth ranked Georgia. The winner would advanced to play Oregon. 92 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 3: Ohio State, Boise States stays the same. 93 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: Notre Dame would play Old Miss they would advance to 94 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 2: play Miami. In Indiana, Tennessee remains the same. But you 95 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 2: get the picture. We are off and running. And oh, 96 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 2: by the way, Georgia's offense is the one that might 97 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 2: need a reset right now. It was jarring enough for 98 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: Bulldog Faithful to lose to a non Alabama opponent for 99 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: the first time in five years. But Georgia is scoring 100 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: only ten points. This team is like Sybil. I mean, 101 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 2: one week they look like they're unbeatable, they look like 102 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 2: the most complete team in college football, and today they 103 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 2: look very pedestrian. I realized they missed lad McConkey and 104 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: brock Bowers, but they haven't been there all year. And 105 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: I think up until last week most of us thought, 106 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: really Georgia was the most complete team in football, not Texas, 107 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 2: not you get it? Okay, And how about Alabama going 108 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: into LSU in what was an officially dubbed as an 109 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: elimination game because it was I. 110 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 3: Talked about this last night. 111 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: The beauty of this playoff give two to two lost 112 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: teams and essentially a de fact of elimination playoff game, 113 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 2: where at if it had been twenty five years ago 114 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: before the BCS, or thirty years ago, you know, and 115 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 2: the playoff was, if you want to call it that, well, 116 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 2: there was no playoff. The national champion was decided by 117 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: a bunch of voters, voters in a smoke field room. 118 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: Then you advanced to the BCS, which no one really liked, 119 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 2: but it was better than a sharp stick in the eye, 120 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: not much better. And then finally we had the four 121 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 2: team made for TV Invitational playoff, which never made sense 122 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 2: to me because you had five power conferences and someone 123 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 2: was gonna left out, just asked Florida State. And the 124 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 2: bottom line is this you think Florida State would have 125 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: liked this playoff format from last year. See that's the beauty. 126 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: It's gonna be decided on the field. So you might 127 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 2: not like BYU being number one if they win their conference, though, 128 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: hey put yourself with big old glasses. Shut up, juice. 129 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: If you don't think BYU is good, get on the 130 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: field and beat him then. Or if you're bent because 131 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: you're stuck in the SEC, which is too good a conference, 132 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: well what the hell then, Trent, you know, relocate to 133 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 2: the Big twelve. What you're not going to do. The 134 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: Big twelve will get one team in this tournament, the 135 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 2: SEC A get for it looks like one of them 136 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: is gonna be Alabama. Give it up to Klein de Bor. 137 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 2: They proved they could go into a situation which is 138 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: not easy Elis. They don't lose night games at LSU, 139 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: and I after really question now whether Brian Kelly's a 140 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: fit there or he might have to shift his accent. 141 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: And how about Miami. It's about damn time you see 142 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 2: the T shirt f around and find out, well, that's 143 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 2: Miami's been playing with their food for months, not weeks, 144 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: and a lot of sharps like Hayines, King and Georgia 145 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 2: Tech today and they were rewarded. 146 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 3: By the way. Give it up to Coach Prime. 147 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 2: You cannot tell me that if Colorado could somehow find 148 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: their way into this tournament, it would just be baffle 149 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 2: for college football, you know. It turns out to Dion 150 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 2: Sanders comments after he won Colorado's debut last year weren't wrong. 151 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 2: They were just about fourteen months early. Quote we told 152 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: you we come, and you thought we was joking. And 153 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 2: guess what weekey receipts. 154 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 3: You got them. 155 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 2: My man, what a phenomenal job they have done in Colorado. 156 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 2: Sure they still have Shudor Sanders and Travis Hunter and 157 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 2: a trew of excellent receivers. Those two guys probably both 158 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: picked in the top eight next year. But they've got 159 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: a defense now that can tackle in space. They're pretty 160 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 2: good in the trenches. They can actually run the ball. 161 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: Fast forward fourteen months, Coach Prime has the Buffaloes holding 162 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: the playoff destiny in their own hands with three weeks 163 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 2: to play. The latest receipt in the Colorado resume a 164 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: road win at Texas Tech on Saturday. 165 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 3: At Iowa State's second straight loss. 166 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 2: At all of a sudden a spot in the Big 167 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: twelve title game is the Buffaloes to grab if they 168 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 2: went out another day for Shodoor Sanders two hundred and 169 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 2: ninety one yards, three scores, Travis Hunter, nine balls, blah 170 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 2: blah blah blah. But the defense, that's the one you 171 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 2: need to give the gold star to. They had been 172 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: a maligned unit for the last two years. They've improved 173 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 2: drastically in sanderssecond year, six sacks today, ten tackles for loss. 174 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: Need I say more? And Kurt Signetti, yep, I googled you. 175 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 2: I googled you be nice. If I could talk, I 176 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 2: googled you. Yeah you win. I love it what he said. 177 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: And Produce sucks, but so does Michigan and Ohio State. 178 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: Well that's a banger. He's going to get Ohio State 179 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 2: in a couple of weeks. But the Santiana team, and 180 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 2: I know people will dog them where they barely beat Michigan, 181 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: So what they needed to be in a game, they 182 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 2: needed to be in a fistfight in the phone booth 183 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: to prove they could prevail. You know, Michigan's not good, 184 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: but they're still prideful and they still hit hard. 185 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 3: They just don't have any depth that I have a quarterback. 186 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 2: They can't really throw a complete a forward pass, but 187 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 2: the winged helmet still inspires, you know, a lot of 188 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: respect because they block and tackle well, and they're going 189 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 2: to play hard. 190 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 3: They're going to play to the whistle. 191 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 2: So welcome to the twenty twenty four college football season. 192 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: They always remember what you did in November, and I 193 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: guarantee you a lot of coaches and fans and teams 194 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 2: are gonna remember what happened Saturday.

Here's what happened. BYU. 221 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 6: Trails need a field goal. 222 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 5: They're on their own seven yard line, it's fourth down, 223 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 5: they have one time out left, there's under a minute 224 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 5: to play, and they got sacked in their end zone 225 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 5: on back to back plays, and they won. 226 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 6: How is that possible? 227 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 5: You ask, Well, the first time they got sacked, there 228 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 5: was a timeout. It was so noisy you couldn't even 229 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 5: hear the timeout until you thought the game was over. 230 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 5: And then oh, there was a timeout called and after 231 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 5: the second sack, literally two seconds, three seconds after the 232 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 5: play was over, Utah is celebrating. There's a little yellow 233 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 5: canary on the ground flag defensive holding ten. 234 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 6: Yards and then b why you meticulated down the field? 235 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 5: If you had told me, Bernie, I bet big on 236 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 5: this game that I could cash out and get back 237 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 5: zero point one percent at that point, I would have 238 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 5: taken it because I'm like, well, the game's over, They're 239 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 5: going to just take three knees. 240 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 6: So just crazy what happened. 241 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: Hey, I mean, look, the more we the more you 242 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 2: do this, the more you. 243 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: Think you've seen it. You think you've seen it all, 244 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 3: you see something new. 245 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: Did you see Pat Forty's tweet last night or last 246 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 2: week when Duke was leading Miami twenty eight to seventeen 247 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 2: and he's making fun of Vegas. 248 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 3: Ah? 249 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was wondering how you guys were laying 250 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: twenty one when Miami you know, well, by the way, 251 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: it was my lock of the year. 252 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 6: So I hod back. 253 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 2: I went by twenty two and cover and I came 254 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 2: this close to tweet at forty. I said, you know, Pat, 255 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: but he just started out with one casino, go ahead, start, 256 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: you got the floor. 257 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 6: I have to ask you this. So I'm a I'm 258 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 6: a maskie. 259 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 5: I bet, based upon my bank roll in two percent 260 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 5: on all my plays. But if ever there was a 261 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 5: Sunday Delly can wager a little bit more than I 262 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 5: normally wager. I think this might be the sautiful for 263 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 5: what's transpired. 264 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 2: Right, well, beautiful, let's dive into Sunday. It's an interesting year, Fez. 265 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 2: NFL favorites ninety six and fifty six against the number 266 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 2: in the last six weeks. No dak, I'm guessing Rush 267 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 2: is worth about five points, and you know Christian McCaffrey 268 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 2: is back. 269 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 3: So let's dive in. 270 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: I want to start with the game Atlanta at New 271 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: Orleans catching forward home, one of those situations fays first 272 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 2: game after a fired coach, Dennis Allen. Ladies and gentlemen, 273 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 2: meet Darren Rizzy. If you'd ask me who Darren Rizzy 274 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 2: was two months ago, I'm a dead man. 275 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 3: I don't know. 276 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 2: By the way, listen, the Saints are going nowhere. But 277 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 2: what do you feel about the dead cat bounce? You know, 278 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 2: and Derek Carr don't trust. 279 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 6: You know, it's funny because I started using that. 280 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 5: I know it's a wall Street term, but no one 281 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 5: else used that in sports betting. Now everyone's using it. Yeah, 282 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 5: I mean it's a wall say well, your investment guy. 283 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 5: They use it in Wall Street, you know, to talk 284 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 5: about stocks months long term, but maybe maybe short term. 285 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 6: It's okay, And I think that might be the case. 286 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 6: Clearly the organization is punting. 287 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 5: On the year a lave goes on the Iruh, they 288 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 5: jettison their best cornerback. But uh, players, players play hard, 289 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 5: especially when there's a change in coaching. That's always happened 290 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 5: in professional sports. Who are the Falcons to be laying 291 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 5: three and a half or four Bernie on the road. 292 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 5: If I had to invest in it, I would take 293 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 5: the Saints. The fours have disappeared. It's three and a 294 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 5: half if it goes back to for you know, I 295 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 5: hate taking the number when I could have gotten just 296 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 5: a little bit better. 297 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 6: So you probably get it. 298 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 5: With all these favorites covering, you're probably gonna get a 299 00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 5: little inflation on the favorites tomorrow. 300 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 2: And part of the reason I invoked that statement, the 301 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 2: Saints have lost seven in a row, seven in a 302 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 2: row after starting two to zero. 303 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 3: But you already knew that, all right, let's sad to Arizona. 304 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 2: The plucky Arizona Cardinals lay in one against the crazy. 305 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 3: Weird, not very good New York Jets. Did you know this, folks? 306 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 3: I know you know this, Faz. 307 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 2: The Cardinals actually are leading the NFC West and they 308 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 2: got a three game winning streak. Here's the question. Can 309 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 2: Kyler Murray stand prosperity? This is something I'd like you 310 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 2: to analyze. He's only three and twelve against the number 311 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 2: in Arizona. When his teams reach five hundred or climb 312 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 2: above five hundred. 313 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 6: Very interesting. 314 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 5: Well, they reached five hundred and it was last week, 315 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 5: so maybe there's a change in twenty twenty four. I'll 316 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 5: say this, Arizona's had I think the hardest strength of 317 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 5: schedule in the NFL. It's been incredibly difficult, and because 318 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 5: of that, I could make the case they're undervalued the 319 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,360 Speaker 5: change in favorites. Arizona was catching one a laying one. 320 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 5: Now they're catching one and a half. All the money 321 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 5: is on the Jets. And you know what, Bernie, I 322 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 5: don't agree with that. I didn't disagree with it when 323 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 5: Arizona was favored. Frankly, this is a game I would 324 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 5: have teased either side. So I tease the Jets one 325 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 5: they would be plus one, and now the Cards are 326 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 5: catching plus one half And I think it's a great teaser. 327 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 5: Should be a real close game in the desert, fair enough. 328 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 2: I was about to ask, if I think that's an 329 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 2: excellent teaser, partner, we'll find someone else to partner it 330 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 2: up with. I'm talking about the Cardinals catching the points 331 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 2: at home, all right. 332 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 3: I am on this game, Fez. I got them when 333 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 3: they were laying five. 334 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 2: The Niners visit Tampa Bay, they get Christian McCaffrey back, 335 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 2: but even without him this year, there's still the number 336 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 2: two offense in the NFL, averaging Fordard and thirteen yards 337 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 2: in the game, they're coming off of buy They're facing 338 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 2: a beat up Tampa Bay Buccaneers team missing the two 339 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 2: top receivers, coming off an overtime road loss. Says, if 340 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 2: this isn't a terrible spot for Tampa Bay, Well, the 341 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 2: only thing that scares me, oddly enough, rock Perty's own 342 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: five against the number following a bye. 343 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 3: I don't care. I laid the wood. I feel like 344 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 3: San Francisco rops your thoughts. 345 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 6: I think you're spot on. 346 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 5: I call it a fourteen to six game, Bernie and 347 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 5: I would frankly be perfectly happy with a fourteen sixth final. 348 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 5: I know it's more likely to be like, you know, 349 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 5: thirty four to twenty eight the Niners the extra weekend Tampa, 350 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 5: not just the Monday night came, but then overtime Monday 351 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 5: night game with a kick and then you know what 352 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,439 Speaker 5: at the end of the game. So I think you're 353 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 5: on the right side with if I had to play 354 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 5: it at play. 355 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 2: Ninersfaz, I want to digress for just a second. I 356 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: really want to get your thoughts on this. 357 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 3: You can make a. 358 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 2: Strong case that Thursday night, the rest missed three penalty 359 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: calls in Cincinnati's final drive, one on the face mask, 360 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,199 Speaker 2: two during the two point conversion. How do you reconcile 361 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: that As a handicapper, it's hard to handicap turnovers and 362 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 2: it's really hard to. 363 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 3: Handicap miss calls. That's got to hurt your thoughts. 364 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 6: Well. 365 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 5: I would make the case that wink wink, nod, nod, 366 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 5: the reps have a little meeting or a little memo 367 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 5: goes out and says, you know, the Bengals, no one's 368 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 5: the same games fixed, but the Bengals, we really got 369 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 5: a raw deal obviously, so let's try to make a 370 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 5: point of emphasis. If anyone like grabs Burrow's face mask 371 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 5: ever again, let's go ahead and call a penalty. By 372 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 5: the way, Bernie, I tweeted this out. I don't know 373 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 5: if you saw this. I had, I thought someone. I'm sorry, 374 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 5: I'm not attributing it. There's a picture of someone holding 375 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 5: Burrow's face mask. At simultaneously the same play, two other 376 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 5: Ravens are grabbing two other Bengals face mask. Three face 377 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 5: masks are being violated. 378 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 6: No flags on that play exactly. 379 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 2: Do you think Mahomes would have gotten that call just 380 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 2: focusing on Joe Burrow? Of course he would have. 381 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 5: Every time Brady, you breathe on him, you get a penalty. 382 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 5: Absolutely yes. 383 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: And even after the game Joe Burrows, the reporter asked 384 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,479 Speaker 2: him a prize, they didn't call it. He goes, no, 385 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 2: I never get the call. Why would I be surprised? Hint, hint, 386 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 2: not not. So you're onto something there, I guess you 387 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 2: figure out you know who you can get away with 388 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 2: this on and you go from there. But you can't 389 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 2: overthink the damn thing. All right, Let's go to another 390 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 2: Moribun franchise the Dallas Cowboys catching a touchdown at home 391 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 2: against Philadelphia Cooper Rush. 392 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 3: Now, here's the good news. 393 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 2: He's actually five and one straight up as a starter 394 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 2: and he's getting points. The other news he hasn't started 395 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 2: the game in two years, one month, and twenty five days. 396 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 2: Can you back Cooper Rush here? 397 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 6: Yes, Kelly back the Cowboys? 398 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 5: Probably not. I have been three point down grade. So 399 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 5: I have Dak one point better than average and Cooper 400 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 5: Rush two points worse than an average quarterback. 401 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 6: Average quarterback would be like Gino. 402 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 5: Smith for Seattle. So it's only only it's a three 403 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:51,959 Speaker 5: point down grade. But the problem is the Cowboys are 404 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 5: no good. However, before we get excited about the Eagles, 405 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 5: I'm hearing Hurts is not one hundred percent. Maybe we 406 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 5: play Hurts to go under his rushing guards props, and 407 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 5: certainly I'm not going to lay seven or seven and 408 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 5: a half. It's the split line on the Eagles have 409 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 5: Hurts is not one hundred percent. 410 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's certainly a factor, But they still have a 411 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 2: J Brown there and they're measurably better. 412 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 3: With him on the field. 413 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 2: It's just Dallas defense, fez uh. It's pretty clearer I 414 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 2: don't know what happened to Mike Zimmer. He doesn't have 415 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 2: a clue. Maybe they could have hired the old Boston 416 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 2: Red Sox manager Don Zimer. Remember him, He's had a 417 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 2: face to look like a block punt. 418 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 3: Anyway, what's wrong with that defense? Honestly? 419 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 2: I mean it's it's they're getting Michael Parson's back. 420 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 5: He's zero and one lifetime in fights to after age seven. 421 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 2: Ye, Peter Martinez, right, maybe you can take on. 422 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 6: Jake Paul and get paid for that good jo. 423 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 2: By the way, you remember Pedro Martinez threw him to 424 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 2: the ground. His body took a bat off from what 425 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 2: I would call it. 426 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, very ugly, by the way, don't I think A. J. 427 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 5: Brown's a little banged up? Also, so the Eagles. The 428 00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 5: Eagles are banged up. You know, I'll say this. 429 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 6: I'm on an island. I love the Eagles. 430 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 5: Everyone's been talking about Sirianni and they all disagree with me. 431 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 6: I actually think he did all his decisions. 432 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 5: I'm not saying they were spot on perfect, but they 433 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 5: weren't mistakes. I'm fine with the guy going for two 434 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 5: up sixteen nothing in the first half from the one 435 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 5: yard line. 436 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 6: Absolutely fine with. 437 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,159 Speaker 3: It, just to put a kapper on this. 438 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 2: We know that aj Brown left the game against the 439 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 2: Jaguars last week with a knee injury, but all reports 440 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 2: indicate he's back ready to go, good to go, unlike 441 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: Trey Lance, who can't even get ahead of Geddy Lee 442 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 2: and Rush. I mean, I knew this guy was bad. 443 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 2: I didn't know who's this bad. Actually, I didn't know 444 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 2: who was this bad? 445 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 3: All right? 446 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 6: Oh well, Trey Lance is a bad third string quarterback, 447 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 6: that's right. 448 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 5: I mean he's not going to jump a good second 449 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 5: string quarterback, no chance. 450 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, good good stuff fest. All right. 451 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 2: I am on this game too. I'm just going to 452 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 2: tell you right now. I grabbed it Tuesday, Denver plus 453 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 2: the eight Broncos are three and one against the number 454 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 2: as road dogs this year. I looked for Sean Payton 455 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 2: to bounce back in a big way. I like getting 456 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 2: on teams that have pride with a good defense coming 457 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 2: off in embarrassment, and I think the Broncos were embarrassed 458 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 2: last week. And look, you've got the proverbial Chiefs coming 459 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,239 Speaker 2: off a tough overtime. 460 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 3: Game last week, and teams who. 461 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 2: Play overtime the following week only cover forty three percent 462 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: of the time, and they're laying a pretty big number. 463 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 2: And by the way, again I may have said this, 464 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 2: the Broncos beat the Chiefs last year in their second game. 465 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 3: Your thoughts on that game. 466 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 5: Well, that was a flawless professional handicap. The only thing 467 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 5: I can add is that I agree one hundred percent 468 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 5: in Kansas City has to play Buffalo next. 469 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 3: Week, so it's a last spot. 470 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 6: Also, so I really like to play. 471 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I meant to mention that, and I forgot. 472 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 2: Thanks for interjecting that you wonder they're human they head 473 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 2: to Buffalo. Wait, let's stay right there, faz, I believe 474 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 2: this would be the first time this year the Chiefs 475 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 2: should be an underdog. I looked at the Westgate look 476 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 2: aheadline the Chiefs for getting one. Do you grab the 477 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: Chiefs on principal alone, because they're getting a point? 478 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 6: No? 479 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 5: I went to DraftKings and I grabbed the Bills plus one. 480 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 6: And here's why, comparability. 481 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 5: The case was just at San Francisco and the Niners 482 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 5: were laying two minus two. The Niners aren't even as 483 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 5: good as Buffalo certainly, or they weren't back then. So 484 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 5: if the Niners were laying to Buffalo should be laying 485 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 5: to Wait. It's perfectly fine about the Chiefs. No reason 486 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 5: to bet them now. For whatever reason, people just love 487 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 5: betting against Kansas City. So wait until next week and 488 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 5: grab plus points with the Chiefs, or to. 489 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: Ease them going back into the cookie jar. Whenever the 490 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 2: New England Patriots were getting points, it didn't happen often, 491 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 2: but it happened. It was an auto play for me 492 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 2: and it seemed to work out well. But I'll take 493 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 2: that to heat. We'll talk about that next week. All right, 494 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: Another team getting points, the Steelers at Washington. I have 495 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: not touched this game yet, but I want to hear 496 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 2: what you've got to City. The Commandos seven to one 497 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: and one against the number that's the second best in 498 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 2: the NFL. Both teams have won three in a row. 499 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 2: And you've got this situation now where Mike Tomlin, historically 500 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 2: as an underdog, believe it or not, wins outright fifty 501 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 2: nine percent of the time as an underdog. Here's why 502 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 2: I might I might throw a half a unit on Pittsburgh. 503 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 2: I like Russell Wilson. They're averaging thirty one points a 504 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: game under Russell Wilson. They were averaging twenty one points 505 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: a game under justin fields. I'm not betting the game 506 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 2: at least yet, but fit would be the only set 507 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 2: I would look at your thoughts. 508 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, so it's been a split line. Two point seventy five, 509 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 6: I mean two and a half. Then it goes to three, 510 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 6: then two and a half, then three. 511 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 5: I'm fighting with my friend the hit man, who's a 512 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 5: great handicapper. I literally screaming at him, Bernie, because he 513 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 5: gave out Washington mis two and a half, which was fine, 514 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 5: and I like Pittsburgh plus three. And he was saying 515 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 5: that he still liked Washington at minus three, and I 516 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 5: was like. 517 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 6: How much do you want to bet? 518 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 4: You want to do? 519 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 5: You want to be a zillion at three? He's like, 520 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 5: oh no, no, no, I don't Steven. So I'm like, see, 521 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 5: you don't really believe it. I check the boxes. Pittsburgh 522 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 5: is an underdog. Check Pittsburgh when they had their head rusher. 523 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 5: Check Washington is their quarterback one hundred percent. Maybe it 524 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 5: sure looks like a close game Washington, either team could win. 525 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 6: Washington finds the. 526 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 5: Way to win BYU style. Pittsburgh covers the three. 527 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,959 Speaker 2: All right, two more Fez. But these are big I 528 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 2: covered the Lions for ten years and this is something 529 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 2: that goes back forever. The Lions the week after playing 530 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 2: green Bay historically, I mean, this is just such a 531 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 2: big emotional game for them in the franchise. They're nineteen 532 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: to twenty eight against the number. After defeating green Bay, 533 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 2: Detroit heads to Houston Land three and a half the Lions. 534 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 2: They've been on a heater nine to one against the 535 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 2: spread their last ten games. This team is for real. 536 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: They're plus eleven in turnover ratio. They average thirty two 537 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 2: points a game. Texans also coming off an embarrassing effort. 538 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: They do get Nico Collins back the final kicker c J. Stroud. 539 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 2: He's six and zero against the spread as a dog 540 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 2: of two or more points. Do you do you take 541 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 2: a look at the Houston Texans here. 542 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 6: I like what you did there, you know, you know. 543 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 5: Against the Jets though he was a two point dog, 544 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 5: so he's only one as a dog to his last trial. 545 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 6: He's not been as good, not as well. 546 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 2: I didn't qualify that though he's two and zero as 547 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 2: he's he's six and zero when he's facing an opponent 548 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 2: that has a greater than five hundred record. 549 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 3: I should have I should have entered that. 550 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 6: Sorry, Ah, Jets certainly don't quality. 551 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so sorry about that. 552 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, a little, a little too many parameters for me. 553 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 5: I was like, I'm under a harvest moon when it's. 554 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 6: Thirty eight degrees. 555 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 5: But I I know, but but it looks good to 556 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 5: have a perfect system and directionally. 557 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 6: I like what you're saying that. As a dog, he's good. 558 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 6: I think one thing. Know. I's talking about the Lions. 559 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 6: They're we well rested. They've got buyas the second half 560 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 6: the last two weeks because. 561 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 5: Basically after Love through that pick six, that game was over, 562 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 5: and the game against the Titans was over midway through 563 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 5: the second quarter. So it's not like the Lions are like, 564 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 5: you know, all banged up from playing a lot of 565 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,640 Speaker 5: downs and because of that, this is actually a fresh 566 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,360 Speaker 5: team on that long winning streak. I still prefer the Texans. 567 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 5: If you give me Nico Collins, you. 568 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 6: Know, Detroit can find a way to win. 569 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 5: I love taking plus three and a half with a 570 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 5: decent team. 571 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 6: I'll probably do it with Houston. 572 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, fair enough. 573 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 2: I haven't had the guts to fire on that game yet, 574 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 2: but I will say this It is one of those 575 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 2: games you might look up Sunday night and say, Wow, 576 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: why didn't I see that coming? 577 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 3: So spot on, let's go to Monday Night. 578 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 2: Ever so quickly Miami visits the Los Angeles Rams. 579 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 3: The Rams have become a darling. 580 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: That's a pickum game for me in the way I 581 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: handicap it your thoughts. 582 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: I don't think I'll be involved. I might take a 583 00:28:58,160 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 3: look at the under. 584 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 6: Let me talk you into it. 585 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 5: And it's minus one to ask the current number three reasons 586 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 5: I've picking them in my. 587 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 2: Mind like a coin flip, irrespective. Yeah, I didn't mean 588 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 2: to spread, but go ahead. 589 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 5: Yeah I have I have the Rams slightly better, all right. 590 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 5: I have the Rams with the significantly better coach, which 591 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 5: I think magnifies when you've got two even teams playing. 592 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 5: I also have the Rams with the better quarterback. Again, 593 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 5: I think that matters for the most One is a 594 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 5: really close game that could go either way. And I 595 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 5: love the fact that it's a night game, so it 596 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 5: ends like around ten thirty pm Eastern time, so the 597 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 5: body clocks greatly favor the West Coast team that's always 598 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,719 Speaker 5: done better on these Sunday Night, Monday night, Thursday Night Games. 599 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 6: I'm on the rams, Bernie. 600 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 3: All right, sez good stuff.

Of course, that extended the drive for BYU. 619 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 7: They would take advantage, march down the field to get 620 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 7: in the field goal range and eventually win the game. 621 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 7: So the BYU Cougar state undefeated at nine to ohero 622 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 7: on the season.

Can they 684 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 2: run the table? It's only inevitable. God rest his soul. 685 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 2: Too bad Mercury re morses and still around. He could 686 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,919 Speaker 2: stand on the sidelines and ru for him to fail, 687 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 2: which was his forte for the last four decades. He was, 688 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 2: of course part of the great nineteen seventy two Miami 689 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: Dolphins team that wins seventeen too. And when Brady and 690 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 2: the New England Patriots lost in the Super Bowl, I 691 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 2: guess it was forty two eight what regardless whatever it 692 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:45,760 Speaker 2: was that broke that stream. Okay, they came this close. 693 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 2: Well where am I going with this? So if the 694 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 2: Chiefs were to have went out the nine remaining games 695 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 2: in the regular season, when the divisional game, when the 696 00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 2: championship of the AFC, and then of course advanced the 697 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: Super Bowls three more wins, that's. 698 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 3: That would put them at at at twenty and oh 699 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 3: this year. And add that a check that checked that, yes. 700 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 2: And then the two games they won last year at 701 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 2: the end of the season. Now, the twenty three to 702 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 2: twenty oh four Patriots won twenty one games in a row. 703 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 2: The Chiefs can break that record. The Chiefs could win 704 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 2: more than twenty one games in a row because again 705 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 2: they've they've already won eight. Add that to the two 706 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: last year, there's nine games were left in the regular season. 707 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 2: That would be nineteen heading into the Playoffs, two playoff games, 708 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 2: and then the Super Bowl. If that'd be twenty two 709 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 2: in a row, they would beat the three to h 710 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 2: four Patriots. Now in the NHL, by the way, the 711 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 2: all time record is held by the ninety ninety three 712 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Penguins. They won seventeen n row. And in Major 713 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 2: League Baseball, I don't remember this. I don't think I 714 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 2: was paying attention back in nineteen sixteen. I didn't follow 715 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 2: the New York Giants, the New York Baseball Giants on Twitter. 716 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 3: They actually won twenty six games in a row. 717 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 2: But the Kramvill La Creme, the all time greats, the 718 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 2: nineteen seventy one seventy two Los Angeles Lakers, and I 719 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 2: know my good buddy Steve Hartman can recite this backward 720 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 2: and forwards. They won thirty three games in a row. 721 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 2: They had the fifty three year anniversary of that on Tuesday, 722 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 2: when the Lakers won the first of their thirty three 723 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 2: consecutive games, which still remains the longest winning streak across 724 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 2: all four major North American sports leagues. Let me tell 725 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 2: you the Lakers earned it. They won sixteen of those 726 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 2: games on the road and seventeen at home half and 727 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 2: half basically, and this Laker team was not a bunch 728 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 2: of ham and agers. They won twenty three of those 729 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 2: games by double digits. I had some guys you may 730 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 2: have heard of, like Jerry West, Will Chamberlain, Gail Goodrich. 731 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 2: They played every single game of the streak. Flew commercial too, 732 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 2: no load management. The three of them averaged per night 733 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: sixty five points, twenty nine rebounds, and nineteen assists. 734 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 3: How's that for a big three, A real big three. 735 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 2: Here's an interesting footnote on the team, and I'm quite 736 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 2: sure my good buddy Steve Hartman knows this as well. 737 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 2: Elgin Baylor was one of five future Hall of Famers 738 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 2: on that roster. But ironically, again we're back to irony. 739 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 2: They did it without a Hall of Famer. Remember, irony 740 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 2: is when the firehouse is burning down. Coincidence, you know, Hey, 741 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 2: I saw Mike at the ballgame. Ironically, No, that was coincidental. Ironically, 742 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 2: Elgin Baylor retired nine games into that season, and ironically, 743 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 2: the streak, the thirty three game winning streak where they 744 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: won seventeen games in zero sixteen on the road and 745 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,879 Speaker 2: won twenty three to them by double digits. I'm talking 746 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 2: about the seventy three Los Angeles Lakers. Check that I 747 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 2: got that wrong. Seventy one to seventy two Lakers, What's 748 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 2: wrong with me? They won the championship that year. The 749 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 2: streak began the first game after Elgin Baylor's retirement. 750 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 3: Amazing. 751 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 2: Jerry West went on to say, this is the greatest 752 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 2: team I've ever been on. We had a lot of 753 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 2: different personalities, but when you watched that team on the floor, 754 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 2: it was like one mind thinking alike. So listen, dinas 755 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 2: d's are good for sports because the opposite of love. 756 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 3: Is not hated, it's indifference. You have to care. 757 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 2: There'll be people rooting against the Chiefs. If they run 758 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 2: the table and win the Super Bowl, that'll be twenty 759 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 2: two wins in a row, which would best the three 760 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 2: to four New England Patriots. As you recall, the pay 761 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 2: Streets went to the Super Bowl that year and one 762 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 2: as well. The nineteen ninety two ninety three Penguins won 763 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 2: seventeen in a row, New York Giants twenty six in 764 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 2: erow and the Lakers thirty three in a row. And 765 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 2: now they got a kid named Bronnie James, so maybe 766 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 2: they'll break that record. We're going to talk about that later. 767 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 2: I'll be talking about that in the Malor Show too. 768 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 3: Coming up.

That's why every Saturday night 783 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 2: at midnight Pacific, we bring you Yep, it's that time. 784 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 2: Mark Medina Medina Magic, our Fox Sports Radio NBA guru. 785 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 3: Very much. Finger on the pulse. Mark. 786 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 2: It never fails. There's always there's always news. And I 787 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 2: want to kind of start a three hundred thousand feet 788 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 2: and descend downward. What is happening with Greg Popovich. Certainly 789 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 2: we wish him the best, but I hear the situation 790 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 2: is maybe a little more serious than we really realize. 791 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 9: Well, we don't know, because you know, the Spurs, you know, 792 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 9: operate a lot of secrecy. You know, obviously you never 793 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 9: take things lightly when a seventy five year old coach 794 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 9: has an illness. But for what it's worth, when the 795 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 9: Spurs were in town in La last week, they didn't 796 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,360 Speaker 9: sound necessarily concerned. There was a lot of optimism that 797 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 9: he was going to be back now. They did have 798 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 9: the timeline being indefinite, but I was at least comforted. 799 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 9: It wasn't like they were speaking about them as if 800 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 9: they're delivering any sort of eulogy or uh, you know, 801 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 9: expressing any concern that this is going to be what 802 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 9: it is throughout the rest of the season. I think 803 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 9: the sense an expectation is it's just a matter of 804 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,359 Speaker 9: when popp will return to the sideline, not if. 805 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: Is it a hard issue? Is that what's happening here 806 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 2: because he had a hard issue years ago as well. 807 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 6: We don't know. 808 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 9: I I don't know that, uh, you know, the Spurs 809 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 9: haven't certainly shared details. I can just tell you that, 810 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,399 Speaker 9: you know, player comments, ficure webit Nyama, you know, said 811 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 9: recently that you know that he knows he's going to 812 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 9: come back soon. Now, the players and when he talked 813 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 9: to Wemby or Chris Paul or really anyone else down 814 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 9: the roster, they have said that they haven't been in 815 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:59,479 Speaker 9: touch directly with Pop, but that's because you know, they're 816 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 9: just trying to respect the chain of command, so to speak. 817 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 9: Acting head coach Mitch Johnson has been, uh, you know, 818 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 9: in touch with Pop and again his words were that 819 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 9: he expects him there to be back soon. So you know, 820 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 9: we don't know when that will be, but it will 821 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 9: still be at some point, all right. 822 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 2: Talking with Mark Medina Medina Magic every Saturday night at midnight, 823 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 2: we let's put a camper on Julian beiid uh you 824 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 2: know he was he was meeted out Justice for three games. 825 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 2: Your thoughts on where that stands right now? I think 826 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 2: some people were vent that Marcus Hayes wasn't taken off 827 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 2: the beat. Just take this wherever you want to take it, 828 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 2: because I think the story is still there. 829 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 9: Yeah. Well, I think as far as the NBA suspension 830 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 9: goes goes, I think three games is reasonable. You know, 831 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 9: I was expecting somewhere in the single digits one through five. 832 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 9: I think the NBA obviously wanted to send a message 833 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 9: that whether you dislike or like what a medium member writes, 834 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 9: you can't you know, put a hand on them. You 835 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 9: can't you know, have a physical altercation. I think the 836 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 9: NBA statement made it clear that they found Marcus's column 837 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 9: to be personal in nature. But even if so, you know, 838 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 9: Joe Beach can't react like that now, you know, as 839 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 9: far as the suggestion you made, why isn't the NBA 840 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 9: done anything of Marcus Ay's Look like Marcus doesn't work 841 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 9: for the NBA. That's looks the Philadelphia Inquirer, they feel 842 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 9: like if they if they feel like they should discipline them. 843 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 9: But I think from the Philadelphia Inquirer stands, they stood 844 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 9: up for Marcuss just under the guys that you know, 845 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 9: he's a columnist, He's allowed to have opinions. Now, what 846 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 9: did they do internally as far as you know, why 847 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 9: he talked about his late young brother in a column 848 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,240 Speaker 9: to make a point about being available during the season. 849 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 9: Who knows, but yeah, the league wasn't going to do 850 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 9: anything because they don't give them a paycheck. And I 851 00:43:56,360 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 9: think that all professional sports, you know, not that they've 852 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 9: never revoked credentials for media members, but it has to 853 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 9: take a lot for that to happen because the last thing, uh, 854 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 9: you know, professional sports leagues want to be perceived, whether 855 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 9: it's in reality or just perception, that you know, they're 856 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 9: credentially in people based on how critical or positive they're 857 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 9: coverage is. They don't want to go down that road. 858 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 9: It's more about, you know, are they with actual news organizations, 859 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 9: what their circulation is, et cetera, as opposed to trying 860 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 9: to you know, play favorite so to speak. 861 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 2: No, I think I think that's well stated. All Right, 862 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 2: I want to talk about the Lakers. 863 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 3: It's an interesting week. 864 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,439 Speaker 9: Browdy James is a performance today for the South Bay Lakers. 865 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 3: Right he was? He was? 866 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was amazing, two for nine, well for four 867 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 2: from behind the arc, five turnovers. I got to say, listen, 868 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 2: I would have paid the two hundred bucks to see 869 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 2: Quincy Alaveri or Maxwell Lewis. I don't know about you. 870 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 2: Let's save that for the end. Let's save the best 871 00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:00,959 Speaker 2: for last that I love brow Oh, I love this guy. 872 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 2: Here's the situation, I really actually love JJ Reddick. So 873 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 2: Tuesday night he makes a command decision with d LO 874 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 2: and then afterwards of the press conference has the mic 875 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 2: drop moment. I don't care what the Lakers do this year. 876 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,279 Speaker 2: They might not even make the DAN playoffs, but this 877 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 2: is going to be a fun year. However, it seems 878 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 2: that at least for one game, coming off the bench 879 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 2: and the complimentary and laudatory comments JJ Reddick had about 880 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 2: his team's performance the other night was a good bounce back. 881 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,760 Speaker 3: After the game when he had that, when. 882 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 2: JJ Redick had the mic drop, what's the situation between 883 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,320 Speaker 2: JJ Reddick and D'Angelo. 884 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 9: Russells Well, as you referenced, JJ Reddick did not like 885 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 9: Dangel Russell's effort in the Memphis game. You know, there 886 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 9: was a specific defensive possession where he was just behind 887 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 9: and trailing, and then the next literally the next playoff offense, 888 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 9: he took kind of a half you know what jumper 889 00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 9: that was blocked and then didn't get back well on defense, 890 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,760 Speaker 9: JJ Redick was very upset about it. Now he had said, 891 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 9: for what it's worth, well rewinded He then didn't play 892 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 9: a lot that game, and you know, JJ mentioned that, 893 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 9: you know, some of it had to do with just 894 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 9: the lack of competitiveness. Now, he did say before the 895 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 9: Sixers game on Friday that those visible viral moments of him, 896 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 9: you know, on the chair wasn't necessarily just because of 897 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 9: D'Angel Russell's play. It was kind of the culmination of 898 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,839 Speaker 9: the entire game. But you know, he did come off 899 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 9: the bench. JJ Reddick said it wasn't necessarily punishment. It 900 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 9: was about getting Cam Reddish in the lineup because a 901 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 9: he's a really good defender, and b the Lakers bench 902 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 9: has really struggled so far this season with scoring, and 903 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 9: d Angel Russell is a score I think what's interesting 904 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 9: here is, at least in the short term, Dangel Russell 905 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 9: was not only professional, he was also productive, and I 906 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 9: think that's very telling for a few things. He and 907 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 9: JJ Reddick have had a pretty good relationship. They talked 908 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 9: a lot this summer about how he can take his 909 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 9: game to a next level. JJ has really stressed it's 910 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 9: out about numbers, it's about impact on winning. And I 911 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 9: think that D'Angel Russell really likes JJ reddicks preparation knowledge 912 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 9: of the game, et cetera. But when it comes down 913 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 9: to how JJ managed in D'Angel Russell, he benched him 914 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,840 Speaker 9: a lot earlier than even Darvin Ham did last season. 915 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 9: He benched him even a lot earlier then when Dilo 916 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 9: was in his rookie season with the Lakers with Byron Scott, 917 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 9: who was kind of the face of you know at 918 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 9: the time, someone who wasn't really high on Dangelo's So 919 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 9: this hasn't been This has been a common thing throughout 920 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 9: his career. But for what it's worth, D'Angel is a 921 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,359 Speaker 9: lot more professional with it. And while the starting line 922 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:49,879 Speaker 9: of is fluid, if D'Angelo comes off the bench, there 923 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 9: is some reasonable optimism that there's a better buy in 924 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 9: because of JJ reddicks x's nose savvy as well as 925 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 9: just the way he struck a relationship with him. 926 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 2: By the way, the reason I made this statement the 927 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 2: extemporaneo statement about the Lakers, I don't know they're going 928 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 2: to make the playoffs. I'm being honest. You're the only 929 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 2: team in the winning record who has a point differential 930 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 2: in the negative, and then Clippers actually got a better record. 931 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 3: We're on goal with this. 932 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 2: Are the Cleveland Cavaliers for real, I mean none of 933 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 2: the really good. How are they for real? 934 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:20,919 Speaker 9: Yeah? They are for real? 935 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 3: I mean they I mean the NBA Finals. 936 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 2: This is what I'm talking about, for real, and that's 937 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:25,320 Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. 938 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,799 Speaker 9: Yeah, they're for real now, I think. You know, when 939 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 9: I've talked to people around the league, the prevailing sentiment 940 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 9: it was the Boston salary. It's not like they're doing poorly. 941 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 9: They're eight and two, right, But yeah, when you talk 942 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 9: to people about Cleveland, people were high on Kenny Atkinson. 943 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 9: He came from Golden State as an assistant coach. He's 944 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 9: already had previous head coaching experience with the Brooklyn Nets. 945 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 9: He knows his stuff. Now, I think the m on 946 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 9: Kenny Atkins is growing offensive mind that he is. The 947 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 9: thought was, Okay, he's a great head coach when you're 948 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 9: trying to rebuild and you're trying to develop players. But 949 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 9: he hadn't proven he can be a head coach with 950 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 9: star players and the team that's ready to contend. And look, 951 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 9: those questions aren't founded. I mean they're just dominated. I 952 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 9: mean most of their wins are by double digit margins, 953 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,760 Speaker 9: and they do have a good core. Obviously, with Donovan 954 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 9: Mitchell running the show, Derris Scarland sharing the backcourt, Evan 955 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:22,839 Speaker 9: Mobley and Jared Allen compliment each other in the front court. 956 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,720 Speaker 9: So they do have a good team. They have star talent, 957 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,479 Speaker 9: but as we know in the NBA, you know, having 958 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 9: a good head coach can help manage all that star 959 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:35,360 Speaker 9: talent as well as you know, putting them in a 960 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 9: position to see as far as how they develop players 961 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 9: and make a game adjustments. 962 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,439 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and Kenny we talked about the Kenny Atkinson higher 963 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 2: and we both give it a big thumbs up and 964 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 2: good for them. 965 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 3: I'd love to see it. 966 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:51,120 Speaker 2: I think it's a great story for the NBA now 967 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 2: and versly your respective of their nineteen point loss to 968 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,760 Speaker 2: the Cavaliers, the Golden State Warriors, it looks pretty good. 969 00:49:59,200 --> 00:49:59,879 Speaker 3: Are they for. 970 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 9: They are for real? I mean, look, when you have 971 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 9: Steph Curry on your team, you can never rule them out. 972 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 9: But I think clearly they've shown that this isn't just 973 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 9: Steph Curry carrying them by himself. This is a real team. 974 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:16,399 Speaker 9: They have a lot of positional depth, you know. They 975 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 9: when you talk to people the Warriors, they talk about 976 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 9: strength and numbers. That was the slogan that they had 977 00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:24,400 Speaker 9: during their first championship run. But I think this is 978 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,839 Speaker 9: a little bit different because the Warriors had more all 979 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,719 Speaker 9: start out because they also had Klay Thompson, They had 980 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 9: Andre Gudowell on the team, and they had a really 981 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:35,919 Speaker 9: good bench. But there are more veteran players here. It's 982 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 9: a mix of kind of young players as well as 983 00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 9: solid rotation players. I think you've seen the young players 984 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 9: Shanna think Kaminga and Brandon Ponzemski take their game to 985 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 9: another level so far. Even though you know they miss 986 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 9: Klay Thompson for what he represented, you can argue that 987 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:57,280 Speaker 9: you know by committee they're fine from a shooting standpoint 988 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 9: when you add in Buddy Healed and that looks at 989 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 9: the Anthony Melton and Kyle Anderson. Andrew Wiggins has had 990 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 9: a little bit of a bounced back season as well 991 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,440 Speaker 9: after having a tough year last year. So yeah, this 992 00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 9: is the real deal. I'm not projecting the Warriors will 993 00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 9: be a championship contender. I'll pencil them in as a 994 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:16,720 Speaker 9: playoff team. 995 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:22,240 Speaker 2: And of course you mentioned shooters. One name conspicuously missing 996 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 2: Klay Thompson, but he'll be there Tuesday night in San Francisco. 997 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,319 Speaker 2: They're going to have a special salute Captain Clayne. They're 998 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 2: going to give out eighteen thousand tats. Kind of a 999 00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 2: nice gesture of the Warriors. Are there is the NBA 1000 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 2: making that publicity. 1001 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:39,359 Speaker 9: Here, Well, this is very typical when players come back 1002 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,600 Speaker 9: after leaving the team. They'll do the video tribute, but 1003 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 9: I think. 1004 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:46,800 Speaker 2: The Warriors want to take it up another George Mark. 1005 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,760 Speaker 9: Right then, the Warriors will not believe Kwi Thompson because 1006 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 9: he helped them win championships. Even though they clearly kind 1007 00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 9: of similar to the Clippers. They didn't want to pay 1008 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 9: Kway Thompson the kind of money he was expecting. They 1009 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 9: very well know what he meant to the organization. He 1010 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 9: obviously has had some ups and downs, you know, you know, 1011 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 9: since his injuries in twenty nineteen, but they very well 1012 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 9: recognized that he was a critical part of their championship 1013 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,399 Speaker 9: runs as well as when he came back. Even though 1014 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 9: he wasn't the same player, he was still a valuable 1015 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 9: piece on that twenty twenty two NBA championship team. So look, 1016 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 9: every fan is going to get the Captain Clay hat. 1017 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,239 Speaker 9: There's going to be a video tribute. They've already put 1018 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 9: it on record that no one's ever going to wear 1019 00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,799 Speaker 9: the number eleven again, so his jersey's going to be 1020 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 9: retired in the rafters. So I'm sure it's going to 1021 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 9: be an emotional night. But also knowing both sides, I 1022 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 9: think Clay is really going to want to have a 1023 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 9: good game against his former teammates as well as vice versa, 1024 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 9: because Clay wants to show that he's an all Star 1025 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 9: caliber player, and the Warriors Draymond Green's already said that 1026 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 9: he's going to run into his chest and try to 1027 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 9: be physical. So there'll be a lot of nostalgia. There'll 1028 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 9: also be a lot of competitiveness, very. 1029 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,880 Speaker 3: Well deserved of course, for Klay Thompson. 1030 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 2: And I'm willing to bet I'm gonna go out on 1031 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 2: limb and say that Clay will not call the fans stupid. 1032 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 9: Just I don't think he'll call them stupid. He'll be 1033 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,600 Speaker 9: very thankful. Now, I will say in Paul, I don't 1034 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 9: want to say in his defense, but I think the 1035 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 9: point that he was making on he wasn't calling the 1036 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 9: fans stupid. He was saying it was stupid for them 1037 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:26,439 Speaker 9: to do him because of this. He didn't just leave 1038 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 9: the team passing to be traded. He left because he 1039 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 9: got a better offer from another team. So far enough, 1040 00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 9: he was saying, enough the Clippers made a business decision 1041 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 9: not to give me a max offer. I made a 1042 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 9: business decision to go to a team that did. And 1043 00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:43,480 Speaker 9: you know there's no ill will that he has toward 1044 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 9: corper management as well as a teammates. It was very 1045 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,360 Speaker 9: warm as far as the team goes, but obviously there 1046 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:50,840 Speaker 9: are a lot more business stands. 1047 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 2: It's kinda he's gotta have a lot more awareness though, 1048 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:56,760 Speaker 2: I mean he doesn't. He can. He can parse words 1049 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,879 Speaker 2: after the game all he wants. But let me tell 1050 00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 2: you something, everywhere Paul George goes, they don't win. 1051 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 3: They're probably better off signing Boyd George at least. 1052 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,160 Speaker 9: Look, he's a two way player. I think he's a 1053 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 9: great talent. I don't know that a feeling he could 1054 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 9: produce more consistently. Obviously he could be a lot healthier consistently. 1055 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,799 Speaker 9: But I will add context with these boos because I 1056 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,479 Speaker 9: was at into its own with the Clipper Sixers game. 1057 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:26,040 Speaker 9: It's kind of fitting using this analogy, even though unlike 1058 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 9: some of his time with the Clippers, Paul George would 1059 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 9: play on back to back possessions. The Clipper fans were 1060 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 9: just billing him with road management type intensity. So the 1061 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 9: booze it wasn't that dramatic. It was there, but it 1062 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 9: wasn't that antagonistic that he thought, Man, this is really personal. 1063 00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 2: That's how I felt. But I thought, I'm reacting to 1064 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:50,919 Speaker 2: his reaction. Hey, sort of a I wanted to bring 1065 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 2: this up. Give you get your thoughts on this. As 1066 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 2: you know, the NBA got their seventy seven billion dollars 1067 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 2: media right stealer this summer and lo and behold, their 1068 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 2: numbers are pretty significantly down according to a group called 1069 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 2: Sports Media Watch. When you consider right that the Western 1070 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 2: Conference finals last year were the MAVs and the Timberwolves, 1071 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 2: right those there, There were a couple of games this 1072 00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 2: week on T and T that were down seventeen percent 1073 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 2: versus a similar type game last year around the same time. 1074 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 3: One of those games between Wemby and. 1075 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 2: Chad Holmgren and Thunder, they drew quite a bit less 1076 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 2: than a similar matchup last year. What do you attribute 1077 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,919 Speaker 2: to the fact that NBA ratings continue to trend down 1078 00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 2: to open the season. 1079 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, it is wild. I mean, I think compared to 1080 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 9: last season, it's hard to put my finger on and 1081 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 9: now I know, you know, Shack and some others have 1082 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 9: thought it's just because there's more and more teams shooting 1083 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:57,239 Speaker 9: threes and that's not entertaining. But I think that, you know, 1084 00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 9: my counterpoint would be, as much as I'm like the 1085 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:04,719 Speaker 9: nineties basketball, sometimes there's plotting games that didn't involve you know, 1086 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 9: star teams like a Michael Jordan of Chicago Bulls. Those 1087 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 9: were tough watches. So I think the big picture, I'm 1088 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 9: not surprised with the downward and ratings. I mean, this 1089 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 9: has been something that has been coinciding with cord cutting 1090 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:22,520 Speaker 9: and you know, kind of the devaluing of regular season games. 1091 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 9: I thought, because there was a little bit of an 1092 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 9: upswing with you know, being further removed from the COVID 1093 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 9: era and more guys suiting up four games and there 1094 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 9: being some good marquee matchups, that it would kind of 1095 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:39,800 Speaker 9: trend in that direction. But you know, even though I 1096 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 9: say this, with this past weekend, there have been some 1097 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,600 Speaker 9: notable injuries, but opening the season, outside of Joel indeed, 1098 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 9: mostly everyone's been healthy. I'm pretty surprised with it, but 1099 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 9: I think the big picture of not because of just 1100 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 9: no matter what the NBA does with trying to add 1101 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 9: in season tournament or putting incentives with player participation policy 1102 00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 9: for guys to suit up in Marquee games, eighty two games, 1103 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,240 Speaker 9: I think is a big investment for even hardcore NBA 1104 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 9: fans to dive into. And because it's not the same 1105 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:15,879 Speaker 9: as it once was with everyone trying to suit up, 1106 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 9: a lot of the casual fans will think, you know what, 1107 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 9: wake me up when the Christmas Games day game starts 1108 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:26,520 Speaker 9: and the playoffs starts. So it's a tough problem that 1109 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 9: the NBA obviously has to solve, but there's not any 1110 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 9: easy solutions. 1111 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 3: Well, the n. 1112 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,520 Speaker 2: Season tournaments around the corner, and that I think was 1113 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 2: a big hit year one by every metric. So we'll 1114 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 2: see how that. We'll see how that goes in their 1115 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 2: sophomore season. Okay, let's talk about Bronnie before he made 1116 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 2: his debut Saturday night. The comment or the question I 1117 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 2: would have for you, what were the factors of Lakers 1118 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 2: considered in saying, Okay, you don't have to travel, you'll 1119 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 2: only play in home G League games for the South 1120 00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:00,720 Speaker 2: Bay Lakers. He'll be a home only player, and he's 1121 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:03,440 Speaker 2: going to shuffle back and forth between the Rear Lakers 1122 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:05,160 Speaker 2: and the South Bay Lakers. 1123 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:06,919 Speaker 3: What's the thinking. 1124 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 9: Here, Well, I will add this, everything here is fluid, 1125 00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 9: so nothing's concrete as far as home games away games. 1126 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,960 Speaker 9: I think that they're just trying to figure out what's 1127 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:21,439 Speaker 9: the best way for him to develop. The end goal 1128 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 9: is to maximize and expedite Brownie's development, So obviously getting 1129 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 9: in game reps is important, and frankly you would agree 1130 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 9: with this. He's not ready for that on the big stage, 1131 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:36,439 Speaker 9: so he needs to play as many games. But there 1132 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 9: is I think somewhat of a counter argument that there's 1133 00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:43,840 Speaker 9: a value in being around the actual team and practicing 1134 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 9: with them and going up against NBA players. So I 1135 00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 9: think the Lakers they're trying to split the difference. But 1136 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 9: I don't think it's as simple as saying he's only 1137 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 9: playing home games, he's never going to play on the road. 1138 00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 9: I think that it's going to be just circumstantial as 1139 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 9: far as how his player development goes. But to what 1140 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 9: you outline, I think that's the rough plan at the beginning. 1141 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 9: But again, this plan will be fluid because the main 1142 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:13,320 Speaker 9: goal is to maximize his development, and it's not always 1143 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 9: you know, one solution to that as far as playing 1144 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,440 Speaker 9: games or practicing, it's usually a mix of both. 1145 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 2: So if I understand you correctly, it's fluid, kind of 1146 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 2: like Bronnie's release. 1147 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 3: When he saw on an elbow. Yeah, just fluid. 1148 00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 2: Remember there was a guy back in the day, and 1149 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:34,360 Speaker 2: my listeners will know this name, Flynn Robinson. 1150 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 3: His nickname was Instant Points. 1151 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 2: And then, of course I was a stringer for the 1152 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 2: o'hrald Examiner when Vinnie Johnson was the microwave for the Pistons. 1153 00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:47,520 Speaker 2: Bronnie gets right off the bench in Cleveland pops a jumper. 1154 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 2: So we got the microwave, which has been taken. We 1155 00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 2: got Instant Points. What might Bronnie's nickname be given that 1156 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,120 Speaker 2: fluid jumper he's got. 1157 00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 9: I can hear the facetiousness with that. 1158 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:02,320 Speaker 3: As I get home, I look that word up. 1159 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think you're being complimentary 1160 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 9: when you're talking about this. 1161 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 3: Listen, just show me listen. 1162 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 2: I have no problem with the charade. My son wants 1163 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 2: to play in the NBA call Lebron has just ever 1164 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 2: so quickly, Lebron has earned enough sweat equity and he's 1165 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 2: made the Lakers at bazillion dollars. 1166 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 3: Fine, you want your son to come on and play. 1167 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 3: I got no problem with that. 1168 01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an entertainment medium. But please don't keep trying 1169 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,919 Speaker 2: to sell me he's an NBA player. Show me, show 1170 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 2: me he's an NBA player. You got two other guys 1171 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 2: on that roster that no one has ever heard of. 1172 01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 2: Quincy Oliveri twenty eight points and ten rebound, six assists, 1173 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 2: Maxwell Lewis twenty seven points and Bron He's taking up 1174 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:48,560 Speaker 2: all the air in the room and it's two hundred 1175 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 2: dollars worth of ticket. He's played four games. Now I'm 1176 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 2: mixed up. I thought you bought, you know, finish up 1177 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:56,240 Speaker 2: your little game and hit the road. You can have 1178 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 2: your seven million bucks. Whatever this is now getting silly, 1179 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 2: I'd be journalistically dishonest if if I wasn't you know 1180 01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 2: you didn't hear this kind of vitriol in my voice. 1181 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 9: You got the last word, well, well and playing along 1182 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,560 Speaker 9: with your facetiousness here. I did think of the nickname. 1183 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 9: It's not a riddle, but it gave me some time. 1184 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 9: Call him the prince since Lebron's the king. BRONI is 1185 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 9: the Prince. Obviously I'm being facetious. 1186 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:23,200 Speaker 3: We'll have to check with Prince on that. 1187 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 9: They'll go ahead, Okay, go, yeah, that's that's fair. I think, 1188 01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 9: you know, obviously the end game is make sure that 1189 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:32,080 Speaker 9: he can become a competent player. And you know, to 1190 01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 9: your point, he made his first shot, but he did 1191 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 9: not shoot the ball well two for nine overall, zero 1192 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 9: for four from three. I think if there yeah, five turnovers, 1193 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,040 Speaker 9: you know, hey, he had four assists and two seals, 1194 01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 9: if there is a lane for him to perfect or 1195 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,560 Speaker 9: at least, you know, somewhat master at Clearly it's on 1196 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 9: the defensive end because his shot, his shot, as we've 1197 01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:01,480 Speaker 9: discussed that nauseum here is an iss you. He's also 1198 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 9: not seen as a descendive guard, like is he a 1199 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:08,520 Speaker 9: shooting guard or point guard. He doesn't have that defined 1200 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 9: role on that end. So I think really it's about 1201 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:14,760 Speaker 9: can you be a good multi faceted defender at the 1202 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:17,960 Speaker 9: one or two and just hustle and make a lot 1203 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:21,920 Speaker 9: of intangibles. And I think to Browny's credit, he's willing 1204 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 9: to take on that. He has a positive attitude, he 1205 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 9: works hard, he's embraced the G League. He's never said, hey, 1206 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 9: like this is beneath me, this is this is what 1207 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 9: he's fine with to sign up for because he wants 1208 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 9: to get better. But I think to your overall point, 1209 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,920 Speaker 9: he's not NBA player yet and you could do without 1210 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,920 Speaker 9: the hype. But you know, I guess it's better than 1211 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 9: if you were just to say on the Lakers and 1212 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 9: not playing the G League at all. 1213 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 2: Well, we'll continue to follow the story because they're forcing 1214 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 2: us to, and I would just say this, he is 1215 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 2: a good kid. He's respectful, he's respectful, he plays hard, 1216 01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 2: he does have some court sense and uh, you know, 1217 01:02:56,960 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 2: we'll see, we'll see. You know, Rome wasn't built a day, right, 1218 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 2: It actually took several thousand years from what I understand. 1219 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:05,480 Speaker 9: I'm just throwing this out here. I mean, maybe we 1220 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 9: could do our live radio show at the next Sprawney 1221 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:11,080 Speaker 9: game in the South with the South Fair Lakers. 1222 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 3: Let me consider that. 1223 01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:19,200 Speaker 2: Let me get back right right after I lighted my 1224 01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 2: hair on fire and put it out with a tag hammer. 1225 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 3: Actually got a shaved head. That bad analogy? 1226 01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 2: Mark, great stuff as always, Man, Thanks so much. We'll 1227 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,560 Speaker 2: talk to you next week.

But the Roncos do it on 1271 01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 7: the blue turf twenty eight to twenty one Kansas with 1272 01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 7: an upset as a beat Iowa State forty five to 1273 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:10,560 Speaker 7: thirty six Virginia over number eighteen Pittsburgh twenty four to 1274 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 7: nineteen Number twenty Colorado.

Number twenty four Missouri hangs on 1278 01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:26,800 Speaker 7: for a thirty twenty three win against Oklahoma. The Sooners 1279 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:30,280 Speaker 7: now just one in five in their first season in 1280 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:33,760 Speaker 7: SEC play, and number twenty five Army they remain undefeated. 1281 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 7: The Black Knights do nine to zero a fourteen to 1282 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,200 Speaker 7: three win against North Texas spec to you, Bernie. 1283 01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:40,840 Speaker 3: All right, chef, So. 1284 01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 2: We have to take a harder look maybe at the 1285 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:48,080 Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens. I've never sold because until they actually do 1286 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:53,760 Speaker 2: it in January. And I've I love Lamar Jackson. I've 1287 01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:57,120 Speaker 2: always believed he's way better than pocket, you know, way 1288 01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 2: better than average pocket passer that people don't give him 1289 01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:01,960 Speaker 2: credit for. I think he's a winner. But for some reason, 1290 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:06,200 Speaker 2: it's never translated in January. So last since my last show, 1291 01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 2: the Baltimore has not played two games. You saw what 1292 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:11,800 Speaker 2: happened Thursday night, a fast and furious comeback against the 1293 01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals, But remember what happened last week as well. 1294 01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:20,000 Speaker 2: The Broncos last week faced the Baltimore Ravens. Began the 1295 01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 2: week with the top ranked defense, but the Ravens, who 1296 01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:28,479 Speaker 2: are now seven to three, they completely hammered that top 1297 01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 2: ranked defense forty one to ten. Lamar Jackson last Sunday 1298 01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 2: posted his second perfect passer rating of the year. And 1299 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,280 Speaker 2: by the way, Derek Henry, who's just paying dividends right 1300 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 2: and left one hundred and six rushing yards two touchdowns. 1301 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 3: Say Flowers as having a year. If this taught us anything, 1302 01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:47,440 Speaker 3: and it was. 1303 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:51,000 Speaker 2: Followed up again Thursday night that unless we see it, 1304 01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:53,960 Speaker 2: we have to assume right now that no one can 1305 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 2: stop Baltimore's offense. Now We'll see what happens when it 1306 01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:59,200 Speaker 2: mattered in January, or if they get on the field 1307 01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:01,480 Speaker 2: with Kansas City. But for now, if we deal with 1308 01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:04,520 Speaker 2: the here and now, that Baltimore offense is as good 1309 01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:07,240 Speaker 2: as it gets. Give it up to the Commanders seven 1310 01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 2: and two. Yes, they hammered the Giants last week. No giants, 1311 01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 2: no great shakes. I expect him to take care of 1312 01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:17,800 Speaker 2: business in a few hours here at in Germany. But 1313 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 2: to see Jayden Daniels and company barely miss a beat 1314 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,760 Speaker 2: without their starting running back Brian Robinson, who's been outstanding. 1315 01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 2: He was in active last week with a hamstring. Very impressive, 1316 01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:31,400 Speaker 2: very impressive. Impressive, next span up. And this is the 1317 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:34,440 Speaker 2: very reason why running backs they're not devalued. 1318 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 3: They're just more interchangeable. For some reason. 1319 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,880 Speaker 2: Austin Eckler Jeremy mcnicholsy brought up a practice s guard 1320 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:44,960 Speaker 2: player last week. The Commandos did name Chris Rodriguez. They 1321 01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 2: all combined for one hundred and fifteen yards rushing, put 1322 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:50,680 Speaker 2: up twenty seven points against New York Commanders. 1323 01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:52,400 Speaker 3: Give them credit. 1324 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 2: We'll talk about their Sunday game coming up later in 1325 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:59,799 Speaker 2: the show. Saquon Barkley continues to just be a legend 1326 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 2: with that legendary hurdle. Thirty touches last week, one hundred 1327 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:06,800 Speaker 2: and ninety nine yards, two touchdowns. I think right now, 1328 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:10,439 Speaker 2: if the vote was today, Saquon Barkley would win Offensive 1329 01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 2: Player of the Year. The Eagles six and two, firmly 1330 01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 2: in contention for the NFC Crown. They visit Dallas later today, 1331 01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:19,320 Speaker 2: will handicap that game a little bit later fees and 1332 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 2: I already did. 1333 01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:22,800 Speaker 3: Kind of likes the points. 1334 01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 2: He may not be wrong Dallas getting seven, but they're 1335 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 2: definitely gonna need Saquon Barkley is listening. I understand Jalen 1336 01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,080 Speaker 2: Hurts is a little banged up, not sure to what degree. 1337 01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:37,400 Speaker 2: AJ Brown left the game last week against Jacksonville with 1338 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:40,479 Speaker 2: a knee situation, but he is back Sunday. But you 1339 01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:45,519 Speaker 2: never know, And right now there's a team Philadelphia that 1340 01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:47,719 Speaker 2: might start being playing to their potential. 1341 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:49,599 Speaker 3: Look. 1342 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:53,479 Speaker 2: One thing that happened last week that has been talked about, 1343 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:56,920 Speaker 2: and even Tom Brady questioned it the call online safety 1344 01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:57,559 Speaker 2: Brian Branch. 1345 01:09:57,600 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 3: He was ejected for a helmet to helmet hit. 1346 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 2: Targeting does not normally result in an ejection, and Branch 1347 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 2: responded by giving the Green Bay fans a double peace sign, 1348 01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 2: and everybody must have been chippy. 1349 01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 3: Last week they normally. 1350 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:13,800 Speaker 2: Affable Puka Nakua, who's a hell of a receiver and 1351 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 2: a hell of a guy. He was forced to leave 1352 01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:18,679 Speaker 2: the game for throwing a punch in retaliation after opponent's 1353 01:10:18,720 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 2: bush and I know fantasy owners aren't happy about that. 1354 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 2: But the four and four Rams won anyway. They won 1355 01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 2: on the road, finally, real quickly, before we get to 1356 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 2: the team's trending downward, the NFC's got this crazy wild 1357 01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:35,439 Speaker 2: wild West. It's the closest division in football now Sean 1358 01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:39,040 Speaker 2: McVay and the Rams started owing too. Since then, they've 1359 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:42,040 Speaker 2: been foreign two. They're four and four. They host Miami 1360 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:45,679 Speaker 2: Monday Night. The Seahawks, who were once three and ohero 1361 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 2: now are four and five and Arizona the division's leader. 1362 01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:53,799 Speaker 2: They started one and three, and after convincingly beating Chicago 1363 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:57,120 Speaker 2: twenty nine to nine last week, the Arizona Cardinals lead 1364 01:10:57,120 --> 01:11:00,640 Speaker 2: the division. They're five and four. But here's what I 1365 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:04,880 Speaker 2: think will happen. The Niners are four and four. I 1366 01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 2: get that they haven't been great, they've been banged up, 1367 01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:12,400 Speaker 2: but ironically, back to that word, they hold the division's 1368 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:16,719 Speaker 2: only positive point differential, yet they're in third place. Guess 1369 01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:22,160 Speaker 2: who they get back later today at Tampa Bay Christian McCaffrey. 1370 01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 2: And if you don't think that matters, well, put this 1371 01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 2: in your pipe and smoke it. Christian McCaffrey has played 1372 01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:34,080 Speaker 2: twenty seven career games with the forty nine Ers, and 1373 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:37,160 Speaker 2: with Christian McCaffrey in the lineup, they're twenty two to 1374 01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 2: five without them, their seven and eight. With Christian McCaffrey, 1375 01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:44,040 Speaker 2: they average twenty nine points six points a game. Without them, 1376 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:48,000 Speaker 2: they average twenty three third down conversion. With Christian McCaffrey, 1377 01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 2: they convert forty eight percent of the time, without them 1378 01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:51,960 Speaker 2: forty one. 1379 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 3: Percent of the time. But here's the kicker in the 1380 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 3: red zone. 1381 01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 2: The Niners red zone offense with Christian McCaffrey scores sixty 1382 01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 2: eight percent of the time, without a twenty eight percent 1383 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 2: of the time. Finally, you got to give a winking 1384 01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 2: and nod to Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers defense. Now, 1385 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:10,000 Speaker 2: I will tell you this man. You know, when you 1386 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 2: go against Jameis Winston, he's an interception machine. He threw 1387 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:16,920 Speaker 2: three last week, you know, not one, not two, but 1388 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,680 Speaker 2: three turnovers. The Chargers win twenty seven to ten. But 1389 01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:24,600 Speaker 2: the Chargers also sacked Jamis Winston six six times, and 1390 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, this team's five and three. They've 1391 01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:29,360 Speaker 2: already tied their win total for all of twenty twenty three. 1392 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 2: But here's here's the statistic you simply can't ignore about 1393 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:37,840 Speaker 2: the Chargers defense. Very quietly. They're allowing an NFL low 1394 01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:41,599 Speaker 2: twelve point six points per game, for context, the only 1395 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 2: season long performance anywhere near that mark in the past 1396 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 2: twenty years with the twenty of six Baltimore Ravens. Yeah, 1397 01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 2: the Ray Lewis said red team. They allow twelve points 1398 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:53,680 Speaker 2: seven points per year. That Baltimore unit ranks is one 1399 01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:55,920 Speaker 2: of the best defensive units in history. 1400 01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:59,080 Speaker 3: Can the Chargers keep this up? We're gonna find out. 1401 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:04,040 Speaker 2: But it's no serious you know, development hardball teams play 1402 01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:07,000 Speaker 2: good defense. Coming up, we talk about the teams that 1403 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:10,280 Speaker 2: are scuffling, and they better get busy living or get 1404 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:13,200 Speaker 2: busy dying. See what they did there. I'm Bernie Frattle. 1405 01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:15,800 Speaker 2: We're company line from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio 1406 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 2: Tirack dot Com studios.

What goes up must come down, and 1421 01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:08,200 Speaker 2: the NFL is no different. I think the Colts are 1422 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:11,400 Speaker 2: a pretty good football team. But when you get hammered 1423 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:15,360 Speaker 2: by a tough Vikings team last week, you say to yourself, okay, 1424 01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:17,799 Speaker 2: you pick yourself up, dust yourself off. 1425 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:18,479 Speaker 3: When you move ahead. 1426 01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:23,120 Speaker 2: The problem is they did it with Joe Flacco behind center, 1427 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:26,520 Speaker 2: and he struggled. It was his worst offensive performance. 1428 01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 3: Of the year. 1429 01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,639 Speaker 2: Now I know when Joe Flacco got off the Barker 1430 01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:32,680 Speaker 2: Launger laster before he went to Cleveland Holbot, you say, oh, 1431 01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:35,679 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco to how we doing here? This guy he's 1432 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:38,599 Speaker 2: so old as blood type has discontinued. But you saw 1433 01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:43,000 Speaker 2: what Joe Flacco did. The problem is Anthony Richardson can't play. 1434 01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:46,320 Speaker 2: So if the Colts don't have a quarterback, I don't know. 1435 01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 2: Maybe they can get one from University of Michigan. But 1436 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,920 Speaker 2: the bottom line is this. It's not to start they 1437 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:51,839 Speaker 2: wanted from Flacco. 1438 01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:55,080 Speaker 3: But listen, it's a. 1439 01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:59,280 Speaker 2: Situation where if the Colts don't figure this out, and 1440 01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:02,800 Speaker 2: they're a good team, they're a good team. They're not 1441 01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:06,040 Speaker 2: a great team, but they're a good team, and they 1442 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:09,360 Speaker 2: host a tough Buffalo Bills team Sunday. So it's one 1443 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 2: of those situations where the Colts are going to have 1444 01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,720 Speaker 2: to figure out what they're going to do regarding a 1445 01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:18,360 Speaker 2: franchise quarterback. You can say whatever day, whatever you want 1446 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:21,400 Speaker 2: about Nanthey Richison. He's a good guy, great athlete. He's 1447 01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:23,720 Speaker 2: not a major league quarterback. If you can't see that, 1448 01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:28,479 Speaker 2: then you have, you know, different thoughts. I guess the 1449 01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,679 Speaker 2: New York Giants are probably very happy to be playing 1450 01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:34,360 Speaker 2: in Germany here where they kick off in about what 1451 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,760 Speaker 2: five hours and forty minutes. They's somehow owned five at 1452 01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 2: Metlight City this year. They lost to the rival Washington 1453 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:46,799 Speaker 2: Commandos last week. By the way, you know, misery loves company. 1454 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:51,360 Speaker 2: The only other team that's winless at home this year 1455 01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:52,559 Speaker 2: happens to be in their division. 1456 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 3: That would be the Dallas Cowboys. They're own three. 1457 01:15:56,600 --> 01:16:01,559 Speaker 2: And the Cowboys are actually home Sunday against Philadelphia with 1458 01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:04,240 Speaker 2: Cooper Rush. Now, Cooper Rush five and one is a 1459 01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:06,600 Speaker 2: starter starting for Dak Prescott looks like he's out for 1460 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:10,120 Speaker 2: the year, but Cooper Rush hasn't started the game in 1461 01:16:10,160 --> 01:16:13,120 Speaker 2: two years, one month, and twenty five days. Do that 1462 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:15,880 Speaker 2: what you will, but boy, when need to start out 1463 01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 2: zero and five at home? The future doesn't look bright 1464 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:21,479 Speaker 2: for the New York Giants, although I do expect him 1465 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 2: to take care of business. I really do. I expect 1466 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:30,200 Speaker 2: the Giants. The favorites typically win in London. The Giants 1467 01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:32,519 Speaker 2: are not a good team, but they're slightly better than 1468 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 2: what their record is actually, So it just feels like 1469 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 2: this game is like a twenty three to thirteen type game. 1470 01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:39,799 Speaker 3: We'll see, we'll see. 1471 01:16:40,840 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the Cowboys, yes three and five major costs for 1472 01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:48,559 Speaker 2: concern if you're Jerry Jones. Dak Prescott will exit twenty 1473 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 2: twenty four with three victories. 1474 01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:52,479 Speaker 3: Man, it's sixty million a year. That's the hell. 1475 01:16:52,520 --> 01:16:54,559 Speaker 2: What the hell, that's the only twenty million per victory. 1476 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 2: Jerry's getting return on his dollar there. And look, Dak trick, 1477 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:05,320 Speaker 2: he's really just not a championship quarterback. You could cheat 1478 01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 2: the trainers examining his hand. It was full of blood 1479 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:09,880 Speaker 2: last week. And then I'm thinking what happened? And then 1480 01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:13,360 Speaker 2: turns out he's out with a hamstring injury. He said 1481 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:15,760 Speaker 2: he felt something pull. He said he felt something he 1482 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:18,760 Speaker 2: never felt. It must be pretty serious, maybe torn. But 1483 01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:23,720 Speaker 2: he's getting season ending surgery. And I hate to be 1484 01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 2: that guy. You know, people will say I hate to 1485 01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:26,640 Speaker 2: tell you I told you so. 1486 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:27,160 Speaker 3: No they don't. 1487 01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:29,040 Speaker 2: They love the day we told you so. So I 1488 01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:30,920 Speaker 2: guess I'll be guilty of that. For one minute, I 1489 01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:32,519 Speaker 2: said the Cowboys, this would be the year they went 1490 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,120 Speaker 2: off a cliff. Eight and nine is what my prediction 1491 01:17:35,160 --> 01:17:36,680 Speaker 2: would be. They may not even make a tait to 1492 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 2: nine when you got a lame duck coach playing basically 1493 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:42,000 Speaker 2: without a contract. I know, Dak and Ceedee Lamb went 1494 01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:44,920 Speaker 2: end of the year, wanted to get paid. Just a 1495 01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:49,800 Speaker 2: lot of uncertainty around that team, and that permeated, and 1496 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:51,840 Speaker 2: I just think it was a matter of time. 1497 01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:53,919 Speaker 3: Three straight, twelve and five seasons. 1498 01:17:53,960 --> 01:18:00,559 Speaker 2: Anyway, Derek Carr, Derek Carr, you know, in Derek Carr, 1499 01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:04,120 Speaker 2: we don't trust. The Saints, by the way, lost twenty 1500 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,240 Speaker 2: three to twenty two to the lowly Panthers last week 1501 01:18:07,760 --> 01:18:11,720 Speaker 2: and Derek Carr made his return. He has the distinction now, 1502 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:15,879 Speaker 2: Derek Carr, wait for it, of being the only quarterback 1503 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:20,040 Speaker 2: in NFL history to lose to thirty one different teams. 1504 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:24,080 Speaker 2: By the way, he plays the Raiders in week thirty two, 1505 01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:28,120 Speaker 2: Week seventeen, and that could be that could be lost 1506 01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:30,439 Speaker 2: number thirty two if Derek Carr loses to the Raiders. 1507 01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:34,800 Speaker 2: In the meantime, we continue with the NFL. We have 1508 01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,439 Speaker 2: all kinds of trends that'll be in play heading this weekend. 1509 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:42,040 Speaker 2: And you know, by the way, it's more Derek Carr fun. 1510 01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:45,639 Speaker 2: You know, he has the most losses as a starting 1511 01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 2: quarterback in the last ten seasons with eighty seven. More 1512 01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 2: fun on Derek Carr later, keep it locked. You listened 1513 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:54,559 Speaker 2: to the Bernie Fradlels Show on Fox Sports Radio.

Obviously, we've got 1526 01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:41,360 Speaker 2: one game of the books Thursday night Cincinnati and Baltimore, 1527 01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:44,680 Speaker 2: and at about five and a half hours the New 1528 01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 2: York Giants at Alion Stadium in Munich. We'll kick it 1529 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:56,360 Speaker 2: off against the Carolina Panthers. And currently I think that 1530 01:19:57,560 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 2: the Giants are up to like six and a half 1531 01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 2: point favorites. But be that as it may, how about 1532 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:07,720 Speaker 2: those Chiefs. The Chiefs face the Broncos. They're sixteen and 1533 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,960 Speaker 2: one straight up, ten and seven against the spread in 1534 01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:14,639 Speaker 2: their last eighteen games against the Broncos. I talked about 1535 01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 2: this game earlier with Steve Feesick. This may be one 1536 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:21,280 Speaker 2: of those situations where the eight points that the Broncos 1537 01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:23,480 Speaker 2: are getting offer pretty. 1538 01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:26,440 Speaker 3: Darn good value. They got embarrassed. 1539 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:30,879 Speaker 2: The Broncos got embarrassed last week by the Baltimore Ravens, 1540 01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:36,200 Speaker 2: and I always managed to like teams who were embarrassed 1541 01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:40,360 Speaker 2: the week before that sort of rally the following week 1542 01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 2: and right the ship. By the way, not for nothing, 1543 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 2: the Broncos are three and one against the spread at 1544 01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 2: as road underdogs this year. 1545 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:48,479 Speaker 3: And let's also not. 1546 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:52,400 Speaker 2: Forget the Chiefs not only play Buffalo next week. They're human, 1547 01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:55,040 Speaker 2: not saying they're looking ahead, but they're human. But they 1548 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:58,880 Speaker 2: are also coming off an overtime game last week, and 1549 01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:03,320 Speaker 2: teams who play an overtime game the week before only 1550 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:07,040 Speaker 2: cover the number forty three the following week. Eight points 1551 01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:10,240 Speaker 2: is a lot. The Bears three and zero straight up 1552 01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:13,559 Speaker 2: and against the spread at home behind Caleb Williams actually 1553 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:17,040 Speaker 2: winning by an average of twenty eight to fifteen, Bears 1554 01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:20,519 Speaker 2: aren't getting any of my money the Chargers, given that 1555 01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:25,240 Speaker 2: stud defense averaging twelve point six yards. Check that twelve 1556 01:21:25,280 --> 01:21:28,840 Speaker 2: point six points per game that they are allowing one 1557 01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:30,639 Speaker 2: and seven to the end of this year under new 1558 01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:34,000 Speaker 2: coach Jim Harbaud. Not surprising because they run the ball 1559 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:40,120 Speaker 2: that you clock and they play great defense. The Colts 1560 01:21:40,360 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 2: six and one out right, five to one against the 1561 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:47,679 Speaker 2: spread in their last five home games versus the Buffalo Bills. 1562 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,400 Speaker 2: If you could tell me what kind of quarterback play 1563 01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:55,280 Speaker 2: you're going to get out of the Colts on on 1564 01:21:56,080 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 2: Sunday catching four at home against Buffalo four to three 1565 01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 2: and a half s Penning, then they might be the side. 1566 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:04,759 Speaker 2: But for now, I got to sit that one out. 1567 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 2: The Cowboys allowing almost forty two points per game in 1568 01:22:08,479 --> 01:22:11,479 Speaker 2: their last four home games. How does this happen? Mike 1569 01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:15,120 Speaker 2: Zimmer needs to be you know, needs to answer some questions. 1570 01:22:15,560 --> 01:22:17,519 Speaker 2: They're also nine to one against the spread in their 1571 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:21,320 Speaker 2: last Division ten Division home games. The Cowboys. Now, again, 1572 01:22:21,439 --> 01:22:24,840 Speaker 2: you don't have Dak Prescott. You do have Cooper Rush 1573 01:22:25,280 --> 01:22:30,120 Speaker 2: who is starting. He's five and one as a starter 1574 01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:33,360 Speaker 2: in the NFL, but he hasn't started the game in 1575 01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:35,920 Speaker 2: two years, one month and twenty five days. But you 1576 01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:39,000 Speaker 2: are getting seven, seven and a half points at home. 1577 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:42,160 Speaker 2: The Cowboys. They're really probably the only side to look at. 1578 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:43,840 Speaker 2: You gotta hold your nose. You know who the books 1579 01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,120 Speaker 2: are going to need in The ball is in the air. 1580 01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:50,320 Speaker 2: The Giants, I think, are happy as hell to get 1581 01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:51,280 Speaker 2: out of metlfe field. 1582 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:52,800 Speaker 3: They haven't won a single game there. 1583 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:55,519 Speaker 2: Zero to five again, they kick it off and Munich 1584 01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:57,800 Speaker 2: here in about half an hour, or check that five 1585 01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:00,320 Speaker 2: and a half hours, I've. 1586 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:01,439 Speaker 3: Straight up and against the spread. 1587 01:23:01,560 --> 01:23:04,760 Speaker 2: The New York Giants are their last five games on 1588 01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 2: a neutral field, and they're actually four to zero against 1589 01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:10,559 Speaker 2: the spread versus the Jaguars in their last four games. 1590 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 2: Now the New York Jets, this is an interesting game. 1591 01:23:13,880 --> 01:23:18,440 Speaker 2: They visit Arizona later today. They very plucky Arizona Cardinals. 1592 01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:23,000 Speaker 2: You have to love the effort that the Arizona Cardinals give. 1593 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:27,639 Speaker 2: They actually now lead the NFL and the NFC West, 1594 01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:32,559 Speaker 2: and you know, look, they've got a three game winning streak. 1595 01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:36,400 Speaker 2: The question is can Kyler Murray stand you know prosperity. 1596 01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:40,719 Speaker 2: The Jets opened up as a one point underdog. Money 1597 01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:43,360 Speaker 2: has come in on New York plus one and a half. 1598 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 2: Now the Cardinals are getting at home. Do you trust 1599 01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 2: the Jets, especially since they are now four and thirteen 1600 01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:53,920 Speaker 2: against the spread in their last seventeen away games. 1601 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:56,200 Speaker 3: For some reason, we're still paying that Jets tax. 1602 01:23:56,920 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 2: And they won seven games last year with you know, 1603 01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 2: pretty spotty quarterback play, but you got the Hall of 1604 01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:06,519 Speaker 2: Famer there, But they're just a dysfunctional mess. Can you 1605 01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:09,120 Speaker 2: truly trust the New York Jets? 1606 01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:10,160 Speaker 3: I can't. 1607 01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 2: The Steelers seven to zero outright, five and two against 1608 01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:17,160 Speaker 2: the spread in their last seven games following a bye week, 1609 01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:20,479 Speaker 2: six and one outright against the Commanders. This is a 1610 01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:26,000 Speaker 2: very interesting game on Sunday, the Commanders laying two and 1611 01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:29,599 Speaker 2: a half against the visiting Steelers. Washington seven to one 1612 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,240 Speaker 2: on one against the spread this year, which is second 1613 01:24:32,280 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 2: best in the National Football League. Both teams, the Commandos 1614 01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:40,960 Speaker 2: and the Steelers, feature a three game winning streak. Couple things. 1615 01:24:41,479 --> 01:24:44,120 Speaker 2: The Steelers are only averaging twenty one points a game 1616 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:48,840 Speaker 2: under justin fields, They're now averaging thirty one points a game. 1617 01:24:48,840 --> 01:24:53,040 Speaker 2: They're two starts with Russell Wilson. This is notable to me, 1618 01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:57,679 Speaker 2: though Mike Tomblin in his career as an underdog, manages 1619 01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:02,120 Speaker 2: to win those games outright fifty nine percent of the time. 1620 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 2: By the way, the Vikings six to zero four one 1621 01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:09,240 Speaker 2: and one against the spread versus the Jaguars. 1622 01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 3: I think the Vikings are real. 1623 01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:14,760 Speaker 2: You know, Sam Donald has come back to Earth a 1624 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 2: little bit, but you would expect that one thing I 1625 01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:22,120 Speaker 2: was remiss to mention Antonio Pearson his staff. The Raiders 1626 01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:24,559 Speaker 2: lose to the Bengals last week, forty one to twenty four. 1627 01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 3: They actually Desmond. 1628 01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,960 Speaker 2: Ritter saw a time at quarterback for the Raiders, and 1629 01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 2: after the game, the Raiders fired their offensive coordinator Luetzi. 1630 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:37,680 Speaker 2: They fired an offensive line coach, James Craig, and their 1631 01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:41,680 Speaker 2: quarterback coach Rich Scangarello. It's a bye week overhaul for 1632 01:25:41,720 --> 01:25:45,559 Speaker 2: the two and seven Raiders. They ranked twenty eighth in offense. 1633 01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:48,839 Speaker 2: They're averaging just eighteen points a game. That's twenty sixth 1634 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:52,080 Speaker 2: and only four point six yards per play. That is 1635 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:56,720 Speaker 2: twenty ninth better times ahead, hopefully, if you are a 1636 01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:59,960 Speaker 2: Raider fan, it's quite an event here when the Raiders 1637 01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:04,120 Speaker 2: play at Allegiance Stadium. But it's honestly, it's become a 1638 01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:07,719 Speaker 2: home field disadvantage. You really can't slice it any other way. 1639 01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 2: I think a lot of season ticket holders may have 1640 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 2: jumped ship.

The college football playoff is 1655 01:26:51,360 --> 01:26:53,800 Speaker 2: going to be turned a little bit upside down, not 1656 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:59,080 Speaker 2: too dramatically because BYU managed to hold on and Oregon 1657 01:26:59,160 --> 01:27:03,960 Speaker 2: managed to hold on, but Georgia goes down right and 1658 01:27:04,120 --> 01:27:08,120 Speaker 2: Miami goes down, although Miami still by virtue of their record, 1659 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:12,160 Speaker 2: still might right now hold that top seed because again, 1660 01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 2: this is a championship based tournament, unlike in the past 1661 01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:20,599 Speaker 2: where you had the you know, the four team made 1662 01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 2: for TV invitational tournament. You know, I said Friday night 1663 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:29,200 Speaker 2: on my show. People didn't like it when they saw 1664 01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:33,559 Speaker 2: that BYU was the fourth seed, and they were not 1665 01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:35,400 Speaker 2: only going to get a home playoff game, they would 1666 01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:38,240 Speaker 2: get a bye. Well, if you win your conference, that's 1667 01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:41,120 Speaker 2: the way this is going to work. So you can't 1668 01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:43,920 Speaker 2: complain about BYU. And they came back and got it 1669 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:46,440 Speaker 2: done Saturday night in Utah. 1670 01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:49,200 Speaker 3: And the key is. 1671 01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:52,840 Speaker 2: Is it all arguments with this playoff format are going 1672 01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 2: to be decided on the field as opposed to the 1673 01:27:55,240 --> 01:27:56,200 Speaker 2: previous format. 1674 01:27:56,760 --> 01:28:00,439 Speaker 3: It's championship based. Okay, I get it. The SEA is 1675 01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:01,679 Speaker 3: better than the Big Twelve. 1676 01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:06,560 Speaker 2: So if you're Texas or Alabama or LSU or Mississippi 1677 01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,200 Speaker 2: or one of those teams who certainly would be favored 1678 01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:11,360 Speaker 2: over BYU on a neutral in your butter because you 1679 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:15,040 Speaker 2: believe you're better than BYU, fine, succeed from the SEC 1680 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:17,960 Speaker 2: and go to a lesser conference. But you're not gonna 1681 01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:18,599 Speaker 2: do that, are you. 1682 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:19,400 Speaker 6: Oh? 1683 01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:22,120 Speaker 2: By the way you watch, the SEC will get four 1684 01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:24,759 Speaker 2: teams in this tournament. When all a said and done, 1685 01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:28,680 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve will get one. You don't like it, 1686 01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:32,439 Speaker 2: do something about it. Look, Alan Iverson once said, I 1687 01:28:32,439 --> 01:28:37,160 Speaker 2: don't like to lift weights because they're heavy, not easy. 1688 01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:41,000 Speaker 2: By the way, let's have a refresher coming up let's 1689 01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 2: have a refresher on the college football playoff format. Because 1690 01:28:46,240 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 2: we're so focused on whether or not you know this 1691 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,000 Speaker 2: is going to diminish the regular season. Who deserves to 1692 01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:54,960 Speaker 2: be there not? You don't even know how it's gonna work. 1693 01:28:55,400 --> 01:28:57,360 Speaker 2: I can tell exactly how it's gonna work, and I'll 1694 01:28:57,360 --> 01:28:59,439 Speaker 2: tell you the beauty of it is. It's one hell 1695 01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:01,760 Speaker 2: of a music chairs money grab. When do you see 1696 01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:04,960 Speaker 2: how much money is up for grab just by making 1697 01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 2: this tournament.

What 1714 01:30:01,240 --> 01:30:04,040 Speaker 3: my name? All Right? I want to talk. 1715 01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 2: About the new college football Playoff format because you know 1716 01:30:08,640 --> 01:30:12,080 Speaker 2: that it's here. You have already had the first rankings 1717 01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,120 Speaker 2: and those have been somewhat broken up because of a 1718 01:30:14,120 --> 01:30:18,639 Speaker 2: couple of upsets Saturday. But let's break it down because 1719 01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:23,880 Speaker 2: the twelve participating teams will be the four conference champions 1720 01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:28,719 Speaker 2: ranked highest by the College Football Playoff Selection Committee, plus 1721 01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:32,320 Speaker 2: the next eight highest ranked teams. Is in the past, 1722 01:30:32,800 --> 01:30:35,080 Speaker 2: the ranking of the teams, well, that part's going to 1723 01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:38,400 Speaker 2: be done by a selection committee. But if you win 1724 01:30:38,439 --> 01:30:43,920 Speaker 2: your conference champions champion and you are a power for school, 1725 01:30:44,240 --> 01:30:48,160 Speaker 2: you don't include the Pac two anymore. You're in no 1726 01:30:48,200 --> 01:30:49,800 Speaker 2: matter what your record is. You could be a three 1727 01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,840 Speaker 2: loss SEC team. Let me tell you, if you win 1728 01:30:52,920 --> 01:30:57,160 Speaker 2: your conference, it's championship based. You're getting in. You're ever 1729 01:30:57,120 --> 01:30:58,800 Speaker 2: gonna have a buy and you're evenna have a home game. 1730 01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:04,120 Speaker 2: So the four highest conference ranked champions are seeded one 1731 01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 2: through four. They'll receive a first round Buys, I just 1732 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:10,759 Speaker 2: said the fifth conference champion is going to be seeded 1733 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:13,800 Speaker 2: where it was ranked right now, that looks like it's 1734 01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 2: boys going to be Boise State, or they'll be ranked 1735 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:19,839 Speaker 2: at number twelve if they're outside the top twelve rankings. 1736 01:31:19,880 --> 01:31:23,759 Speaker 2: Non non conference champions ranked in the top four would beginning, 1737 01:31:24,040 --> 01:31:27,200 Speaker 2: you know, seated four and one. Bubbah, you get the picture. 1738 01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:30,720 Speaker 2: But because of this, here's the deal, the seedings one 1739 01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:33,960 Speaker 2: through twelve could actually look a little different than the 1740 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:39,519 Speaker 2: final rankings. Now, the eight teams seeded five through twelve 1741 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,960 Speaker 2: will play in a first round, with the higher seeds 1742 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:46,759 Speaker 2: hosting the lower seeds either on campus or other sites 1743 01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:48,720 Speaker 2: designated by the higher seeded institution. 1744 01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:51,680 Speaker 3: So look, you know, you. 1745 01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,840 Speaker 2: Get twelve five. We talked about that. Right now, it's 1746 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:56,599 Speaker 2: Boise State and Ohio State. And I guess it's kind 1747 01:31:56,600 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 2: of tough silly to project potential matchups because with Georgia 1748 01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:04,879 Speaker 2: going down in Miami going down, they could change BYU 1749 01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:07,240 Speaker 2: managed to hang in there, but if by you would 1750 01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:10,400 Speaker 2: have lost. If butts candy and nuts, they'd been tied 1751 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:14,120 Speaker 2: with Colorado. Colorado though, as we talked about earlier, you 1752 01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,000 Speaker 2: got to give them a lot of credit man, for 1753 01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:19,880 Speaker 2: what coach Prime has done. If they went out, they're 1754 01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:22,960 Speaker 2: going to get in the playoff. So that's something to watching. 1755 01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:25,839 Speaker 2: And this is championship base. It's going to be decided 1756 01:32:25,880 --> 01:32:30,479 Speaker 2: on the field, not by some committee to smoke phield room. Now, 1757 01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:34,120 Speaker 2: the selection committee will assign the four highest ranked conference 1758 01:32:34,200 --> 01:32:38,479 Speaker 2: champions to play in the quarterfinals, hosted by Bulls. That's 1759 01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 2: where you start to hear the names of the Bulls. 1760 01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:44,040 Speaker 2: This will be done in consideration basically, you know, the 1761 01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:47,800 Speaker 2: historic bowl relationships, and then in consideration of ranking. So 1762 01:32:47,880 --> 01:32:51,120 Speaker 2: you'll start to see some of the traditional Bull games 1763 01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:52,599 Speaker 2: being you know, the. 1764 01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:55,599 Speaker 3: Front for the College Football Playoff. 1765 01:32:57,560 --> 01:33:00,920 Speaker 2: Now, the bracket is going to remain in effect throughout 1766 01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:04,439 Speaker 2: the playoffs. There's not going to be any receding, and 1767 01:33:04,479 --> 01:33:08,959 Speaker 2: the highest seed is going to receive preferential treatment placement 1768 01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:12,000 Speaker 2: for this semi final bowl as well. 1769 01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 3: And and of course. 1770 01:33:14,720 --> 01:33:17,800 Speaker 2: Uh the you know, all eleven games will be played 1771 01:33:17,880 --> 01:33:20,800 Speaker 2: under the College Football Playoff umbrella, and you know, all 1772 01:33:20,800 --> 01:33:23,559 Speaker 2: the policies have followed, but here's it's going to start 1773 01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 2: December twentieth. I believe it's gonna here. Here's what's really cool. 1774 01:33:28,520 --> 01:33:32,200 Speaker 2: This is basically going to be a month long ordeal. 1775 01:33:33,040 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 2: And tell me you're not here for it. You got 1776 01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:38,519 Speaker 2: round one and everybody's going to have their hand in 1777 01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:43,719 Speaker 2: the pie, all right, Round one one of the Round 1778 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:47,320 Speaker 2: one games will be hosted by T and T Sports 1779 01:33:48,240 --> 01:33:50,759 Speaker 2: and various other networks as well. 1780 01:33:50,880 --> 01:33:52,799 Speaker 3: Right, here's here's the beauty. 1781 01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:57,519 Speaker 2: By the way, it's December twentieth. They're going to be 1782 01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:02,719 Speaker 2: competing against the text Chief Steelers Ravens, and also another 1783 01:34:02,840 --> 01:34:05,799 Speaker 2: Round one game at eight o'clock on ABC ESPN. 1784 01:34:05,920 --> 01:34:09,640 Speaker 3: But the dates as they go on. 1785 01:34:10,360 --> 01:34:16,280 Speaker 2: They will start on Friday, December twentieth, and they're going 1786 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:21,599 Speaker 2: to continue on all the way through January. January January 1787 01:34:21,600 --> 01:34:25,720 Speaker 2: twentieth will be when the championship game is. So this 1788 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:29,519 Speaker 2: is gonna be quite I think quite the ordeal. And 1789 01:34:29,560 --> 01:34:33,640 Speaker 2: there's no question that you know, I think it's going 1790 01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:36,280 Speaker 2: to do baffle ratings. And let's talk about the money. 1791 01:34:36,960 --> 01:34:39,840 Speaker 2: Let's talk about the money real quickly. You've got a 1792 01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:44,360 Speaker 2: situation where this is ultimately turning into what I would 1793 01:34:44,439 --> 01:34:50,519 Speaker 2: call in common parlance as a as a musical chair 1794 01:34:50,920 --> 01:34:56,680 Speaker 2: money grap a musical chair money grap There is one 1795 01:34:56,760 --> 01:34:59,960 Speaker 2: hundred and sixteen million dollars up for grabs to distribute 1796 01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 2: to all the conferences. 1797 01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:03,799 Speaker 3: One hundred and sixteen million dollars. 1798 01:35:04,000 --> 01:35:06,840 Speaker 2: Now, that's based on the teams to qualify for the 1799 01:35:06,840 --> 01:35:10,840 Speaker 2: College Football Playoff and they advance to subsequent rounds and 1800 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:13,360 Speaker 2: I get to the college football team, you know, playoffs 1801 01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:16,759 Speaker 2: top two leaders and this. You know, they selection committee. 1802 01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:21,679 Speaker 2: They don't factor in which conferences teams play in. They're 1803 01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:27,920 Speaker 2: trying to create parity and disparity based on how good 1804 01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:30,799 Speaker 2: these conferences are and based on the current ranking. 1805 01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:31,880 Speaker 3: What do I mean by that? 1806 01:35:33,080 --> 01:35:38,160 Speaker 2: So the first pass, which was last Tuesday, ESPN did it. 1807 01:35:39,439 --> 01:35:40,839 Speaker 3: The Big Ten had four teams. 1808 01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:46,320 Speaker 2: Oregon obviously very deserving, they're undefeated, Ohio State very deserving. 1809 01:35:46,360 --> 01:35:53,719 Speaker 2: Their only loss is at Oregon Penn State. They're deserving 1810 01:35:53,800 --> 01:35:58,040 Speaker 2: on paper. They bug me, but they're deserving. Their only loss, 1811 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:01,200 Speaker 2: of course, is to Ohio State in a game they 1812 01:36:01,240 --> 01:36:04,840 Speaker 2: could have easily won. Maybe not easily, but they could 1813 01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:08,800 Speaker 2: have certainly could have won it. And then Indiana Google them, 1814 01:36:09,080 --> 01:36:13,479 Speaker 2: Kurt Signetti wins. Google them. They're ten to zero now 1815 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:17,599 Speaker 2: they're gonna end up playing Ohio State. I still think 1816 01:36:17,640 --> 01:36:19,720 Speaker 2: Indiana's got a real path to the playoff, more so 1817 01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:23,280 Speaker 2: than Penn State does. So look big ten well deserving 1818 01:36:23,320 --> 01:36:28,400 Speaker 2: four teams, the SEC, well deserving Georgia. Now Georgia got 1819 01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:30,680 Speaker 2: their second loss, but they still have a path to 1820 01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:36,920 Speaker 2: the playoffs. Texas very well deserving, Tennessee very well deserving, 1821 01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:41,000 Speaker 2: and Alabama all three to one today LSU the LSU 1822 01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:45,000 Speaker 2: Alabama game, I think you can scratch LSU off your 1823 01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:48,280 Speaker 2: dance card. I'm not sure their path to the playoff. 1824 01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:52,240 Speaker 2: And that's the other beauty of this new twelve team playoff. 1825 01:36:53,360 --> 01:36:58,160 Speaker 2: We had a legitimate college football playoff elimination game Saturday 1826 01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:00,120 Speaker 2: night in Baton Rouge, where number. 1827 01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:02,880 Speaker 3: Eleven Bama at six and two played number fifteen. 1828 01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:08,599 Speaker 2: LSU because both schools had two losses each. Yes, it's 1829 01:37:08,640 --> 01:37:11,920 Speaker 2: wild that they're still in the playoff conversation, but this 1830 01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:15,200 Speaker 2: is the new reality. This is the new reality. A 1831 01:37:15,280 --> 01:37:18,400 Speaker 2: third defeat probably ends their hopes. But think about this. 1832 01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:21,760 Speaker 2: If this game had been played last year under the 1833 01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:27,080 Speaker 2: goofy four team TV Invitational Made for TV Invitational Department 1834 01:37:27,120 --> 01:37:30,240 Speaker 2: of Redundancy Department, this game would have been played for pride, 1835 01:37:30,560 --> 01:37:34,040 Speaker 2: and certainly under the BCS era, and of course, obviously 1836 01:37:34,040 --> 01:37:35,840 Speaker 2: when there was no playoff back in the day when 1837 01:37:35,840 --> 01:37:38,600 Speaker 2: the writers would get together and flip a coin and 1838 01:37:38,680 --> 01:37:40,280 Speaker 2: put their heads together and make a rock pile and 1839 01:37:40,360 --> 01:37:43,880 Speaker 2: come up with a national champion. I'll never forget nineteen 1840 01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:46,960 Speaker 2: seventy eight. The USC strolled down to Alabama, very good 1841 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:50,880 Speaker 2: Alabama team, Bear Bryant with Jeff routlicher quarterback, and USC 1842 01:37:51,040 --> 01:37:54,639 Speaker 2: was just loaded, maybe one of the greatest college football 1843 01:37:54,680 --> 01:37:58,639 Speaker 2: teams ever assembled. Forty two players on that roster ended 1844 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:00,679 Speaker 2: up in the NFL at one time, other two Heisman 1845 01:38:00,720 --> 01:38:05,120 Speaker 2: Trophy winners. In the backfield, you had Marcus Allen as 1846 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:07,960 Speaker 2: a blocking back for Charles White. They went down to 1847 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,840 Speaker 2: Alabama and they led handily twenty four to seven in 1848 01:38:10,880 --> 01:38:14,240 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, and they ended up winning twenty four 1849 01:38:14,280 --> 01:38:19,440 Speaker 2: to fourteen. And writers had the audacity to vote Alabama. 1850 01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:22,320 Speaker 2: I think in the eight people as number one USC 1851 01:38:22,360 --> 01:38:25,400 Speaker 2: and the UPI how would you vote Alabama over USC 1852 01:38:25,439 --> 01:38:28,120 Speaker 2: when USC beat them by ten points in there at 1853 01:38:28,160 --> 01:38:32,200 Speaker 2: their home field? All right, that's why this twelve team format. 1854 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:34,519 Speaker 3: Is so great. You got the. 1855 01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:36,799 Speaker 2: SEC with four teams, the big ten with four teams. 1856 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:40,639 Speaker 2: The ECC has one team. It's all they deserve. Miami 1857 01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:44,280 Speaker 2: the big twelve one team right now, BUYU, that's all 1858 01:38:44,280 --> 01:38:47,080 Speaker 2: they deserve. The Mountain West will have Boise stayed at 1859 01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,519 Speaker 2: the at large, and of course Notre Dame will be 1860 01:38:50,200 --> 01:38:55,120 Speaker 2: the you know, the independent team in the group. Again, 1861 01:38:55,360 --> 01:38:57,720 Speaker 2: there is one hundred and sixteen million dollars up for 1862 01:38:57,760 --> 01:39:00,920 Speaker 2: grabs to distribute to conferences based on all these teams 1863 01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:04,519 Speaker 2: who qualify. And I'll tell you this has created what 1864 01:39:04,640 --> 01:39:09,720 Speaker 2: I think, phenomenal interest in November games that might not 1865 01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:12,840 Speaker 2: have it. And I also think it's created, you know, 1866 01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:20,439 Speaker 2: phenomenal I think matchups whereas in the past where you might. 1867 01:39:20,320 --> 01:39:23,599 Speaker 3: Look to two teams that aren't necessarily. 1868 01:39:24,960 --> 01:39:27,519 Speaker 2: Going to find their way into any kind of playoff 1869 01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:29,640 Speaker 2: because they really didn't exist. Again, I keep calling it 1870 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:33,760 Speaker 2: the four team made for TV Invitational. And this is 1871 01:39:33,760 --> 01:39:36,000 Speaker 2: what I thought at the beginning of the season, because 1872 01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:38,680 Speaker 2: some people thought the twelve team playoff would shift to 1873 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:42,479 Speaker 2: ten or the regular season. Now, two losses for a 1874 01:39:42,560 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 2: national power doesn't mean as much. You saw what happen 1875 01:39:45,240 --> 01:39:48,439 Speaker 2: in the LSU Alabama game. Alabama is live. I think 1876 01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:51,720 Speaker 2: they're getting in the playoffs. The regular season has not 1877 01:39:51,840 --> 01:39:55,639 Speaker 2: lost its intensity. That's a fact. There's more to play for. 1878 01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:58,160 Speaker 2: And by the way, you're not just playing for a bid, 1879 01:39:58,479 --> 01:40:01,240 Speaker 2: you're also playing to host the first round game on campus, 1880 01:40:01,479 --> 01:40:04,880 Speaker 2: another aspect of this LA and maybe even earning a 1881 01:40:04,880 --> 01:40:08,320 Speaker 2: first round by plus, we're gonna get a guaranteed group 1882 01:40:08,320 --> 01:40:10,719 Speaker 2: of five conference in their team. Right now, it looks 1883 01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:13,519 Speaker 2: like Boise State that's gonna get a guaranteed bid. Tell 1884 01:40:13,560 --> 01:40:16,200 Speaker 2: me this doesn't move the needle. I think it does. 1885 01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:19,519 Speaker 2: Coming up, we're gonna bring in the crew, get their thoughts. 1886 01:40:19,600 --> 01:40:25,080 Speaker 2: Not everybody likes some people see loopholes. I don't you 1887 01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:28,519 Speaker 2: saw how people lost their mind about BYU being the 1888 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:32,519 Speaker 2: fourth ranked team and they might get on the field 1889 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:34,960 Speaker 2: with the team. A team like Mississippi might not even 1890 01:40:34,960 --> 01:40:37,360 Speaker 2: make the playoff and they'd be an underdog. But again, 1891 01:40:37,400 --> 01:40:41,200 Speaker 2: this is championship based. Win your conference. You don't like it, 1892 01:40:41,280 --> 01:40:43,080 Speaker 2: move to another conference. You're not going to do that, 1893 01:40:43,200 --> 01:40:46,240 Speaker 2: are you. And as they said, the SEC, they'll get 1894 01:40:46,280 --> 01:40:49,479 Speaker 2: four teams in this tournament, but the Big twelve they'll 1895 01:40:49,479 --> 01:40:50,120 Speaker 2: probably get one. 1896 01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:52,720 Speaker 3: They're gonna have to win their conference. So coming up, 1897 01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:54,400 Speaker 3: we'll chop that up with the crew. 1898 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:57,519 Speaker 2: In the meantime, let's go to our guy, Kevin Wirrett 1899 01:40:57,560 --> 01:40:59,479 Speaker 2: with another baffer performance as the chef. 1900 01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:03,920 Speaker 7: A little mellow chef tonight, all ball, really keeping it, 1901 01:41:04,680 --> 01:41:08,800 Speaker 7: keeping it smooth tonight. That's how I like it sometimes. 1902 01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:12,080 Speaker 7: So anyway, it was really not a smooth day in 1903 01:41:12,120 --> 01:41:16,280 Speaker 7: college football. In fact, it was a day full of chaos. 1904 01:41:16,400 --> 01:41:18,919 Speaker 7: As we're gonna see a change in the playoff rankings 1905 01:41:19,240 --> 01:41:23,160 Speaker 7: very possibly so because number three Georgia going on the 1906 01:41:23,240 --> 01:41:26,240 Speaker 7: road losing to Ole Miss twenty eight to ten, Carson 1907 01:41:26,320 --> 01:41:29,919 Speaker 7: Beck struggling to take care of the football on Saturday 1908 01:41:29,960 --> 01:41:33,800 Speaker 7: and interception of fumble five sacks he took. As the 1909 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:38,480 Speaker 7: Bulldogs now two losses in SEC play, they get leapfrogged 1910 01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:41,559 Speaker 7: by teams like A Tennessee, Texas, A and M and 1911 01:41:41,800 --> 01:41:44,679 Speaker 7: Texas in the overall standing. So we'll see exactly where 1912 01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:49,080 Speaker 7: that leaves Georgia in the pecking order. Number four Miami, 1913 01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:53,559 Speaker 7: their undefeated season is no more as Georgia Tech went 1914 01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:56,880 Speaker 7: to twenty eight twenty three. So the Hurricanes now nine 1915 01:41:56,880 --> 01:41:59,360 Speaker 7: and one. Camp Ward did play very well three hundred 1916 01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:03,160 Speaker 7: and forty eighty yards and three touchdowns, but the Hurricanes 1917 01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:07,560 Speaker 7: now join the ranks of the teams that have losses. 1918 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:10,560 Speaker 7: Number five Texas slow and easy win forty nine to 1919 01:42:10,640 --> 01:42:15,439 Speaker 7: seventeen five touchdown passes by Quinn yours the top two 1920 01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:18,439 Speaker 7: teams in the country Oregon in Ohio State, both of 1921 01:42:18,439 --> 01:42:21,880 Speaker 7: them with easy wins, as the Ducks winning against Maryland 1922 01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:25,360 Speaker 7: thirty nine eighteen, buck Guy shutting out Purdue of forty 1923 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:30,000 Speaker 7: five it's to nothing. Number six Pence State thirty five 1924 01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:33,920 Speaker 7: six winners against Washington as much in before Tennessee wins 1925 01:42:33,960 --> 01:42:38,160 Speaker 7: against Mississippi State thirty three fourteen. Number eight Indiana the 1926 01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:41,160 Speaker 7: Hoosiers for the first time in school history ten and 1927 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:46,680 Speaker 7: oh they get by Michigan at twenty to fifteen. Elsewhere 1928 01:42:46,760 --> 01:42:50,759 Speaker 7: in college football, number eleven Alabama going to Death Valley 1929 01:42:51,360 --> 01:42:54,799 Speaker 7: and winning at number fifteen LSU forty two to thirteen. 1930 01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:58,719 Speaker 7: Jalen Milroe twelve carries one hundred and eighty five yards 1931 01:42:58,800 --> 01:43:03,880 Speaker 7: of four touchdown for the Crimson Tide. Number twelve a 1932 01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:06,200 Speaker 7: Boise State trying to assert themselves as the top a 1933 01:43:06,280 --> 01:43:09,479 Speaker 7: group of five team and try to get that playoff spot, 1934 01:43:09,800 --> 01:43:12,200 Speaker 7: as they do get by Nevada twenty eight two to 1935 01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:16,400 Speaker 7: twenty one. Ashton Gentry, a sensational running back for the Broncos, 1936 01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:20,680 Speaker 7: two hundred and nine yards with three touchdowns on in 1937 01:43:20,760 --> 01:43:24,120 Speaker 7: the evening upset in the Big Twelve. Kansas takes stand 1938 01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:27,920 Speaker 7: number seventeen Iowa State thirty five, thirty six, Virginia winners 1939 01:43:27,920 --> 01:43:31,320 Speaker 7: at number eighteen, Pit twenty four nineteen, and number twenty 1940 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:33,760 Speaker 7: four Missouri two touchdowns in the final two minutes to 1941 01:43:33,760 --> 01:43:37,080 Speaker 7: beat Oklahoma thirty to twenty three, as the Sooner struggling 1942 01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:40,400 Speaker 7: in their first season in SEC play at just one 1943 01:43:40,439 --> 01:43:44,280 Speaker 7: in five in their first campaign, Number twenty five Army 1944 01:43:44,360 --> 01:43:47,479 Speaker 7: standing undefeated the Black Knights nine to zero after they 1945 01:43:47,520 --> 01:43:51,240 Speaker 7: beat Texas Tech four Tech. Excuse me, North Texas fourteen 1946 01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:54,559 Speaker 7: to three. Back to Bernie, all. 1947 01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:57,160 Speaker 2: Right, you've heard the discussion, chef. Let's start with you 1948 01:43:57,840 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 2: this twelve team playoff. You know, in the words of P. T. Barnum, 1949 01:44:02,680 --> 01:44:05,080 Speaker 2: Without promotion, something terrible happens. 1950 01:44:05,400 --> 01:44:05,759 Speaker 3: Nothing. 1951 01:44:06,200 --> 01:44:08,120 Speaker 2: Well, I've been promoting this and I think a lot 1952 01:44:08,120 --> 01:44:10,479 Speaker 2: of people have, but not everybody's in agreement. 1953 01:44:10,520 --> 01:44:12,280 Speaker 3: Where do you stand on the new twelve team? Oh? 1954 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:12,559 Speaker 3: I love. 1955 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,280 Speaker 7: This is the best thing that's happened to college football 1956 01:44:15,479 --> 01:44:19,040 Speaker 7: in my lifetime. I've always known it as the biggest 1957 01:44:19,120 --> 01:44:21,400 Speaker 7: joke of a postseason in which the national champion was 1958 01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:23,800 Speaker 7: determined the same exact way as it was in gymnastics 1959 01:44:23,880 --> 01:44:28,080 Speaker 7: or figure skating, not objectively, by essentially a committee of 1960 01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:32,200 Speaker 7: judges doing what they can to gauge how each team 1961 01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:34,120 Speaker 7: performed over the course of a season, but it was 1962 01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:37,120 Speaker 7: never determined on the field. Then we had the BCS, 1963 01:44:37,120 --> 01:44:39,320 Speaker 7: but of course that really wasn't a great system either. 1964 01:44:39,680 --> 01:44:42,960 Speaker 7: The only championship game I can recall during that era 1965 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:46,559 Speaker 7: that actually made sense was Texas USC one and two. 1966 01:44:46,600 --> 01:44:49,639 Speaker 7: Otherwise it was controversy just about every other year. Then 1967 01:44:49,680 --> 01:44:51,720 Speaker 7: we get to the four team playoff, and as we 1968 01:44:51,760 --> 01:44:54,920 Speaker 7: can remember last year Florida State. Yes, I know that 1969 01:44:55,400 --> 01:44:58,000 Speaker 7: the quarterback got into but they finished undefeated but missed 1970 01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:01,800 Speaker 7: the four team playoff. With twelve teams in it's hard 1971 01:45:01,800 --> 01:45:05,200 Speaker 7: to argue that anyone who misses the playoff was truly 1972 01:45:05,200 --> 01:45:07,880 Speaker 7: deserving of being in it. Now, I personally do like 1973 01:45:07,920 --> 01:45:10,240 Speaker 7: the idea of making it like March Madness, give every 1974 01:45:10,280 --> 01:45:12,880 Speaker 7: conference an automatic spot. Didn't fill it out without large 1975 01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:16,040 Speaker 7: but to me, this is the next best thing. Twelve 1976 01:45:16,080 --> 01:45:19,479 Speaker 7: teams give all the power conferences plus one of the 1977 01:45:19,520 --> 01:45:23,280 Speaker 7: non power conference an automatic spot without large and fill 1978 01:45:23,280 --> 01:45:25,800 Speaker 7: out the field. And I'm ready for this chaos, Burdy, 1979 01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:28,280 Speaker 7: I'm really ready for it. It's going to be the 1980 01:45:28,320 --> 01:45:31,400 Speaker 7: best college football postseason, I think in history. 1981 01:45:32,439 --> 01:45:35,320 Speaker 2: Okay, I agree with pretty much all of that. I 1982 01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:39,000 Speaker 2: feel the same way. And I like the analogy whereby 1983 01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:43,000 Speaker 2: you compare the judgment call that the committee would make 1984 01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:47,320 Speaker 2: to you know, figure skating or gymnastics or whatever. Here's 1985 01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:52,360 Speaker 2: where people all you know already are complaining right now. 1986 01:45:52,479 --> 01:45:56,640 Speaker 2: BYU is with the number four team, which means they 1987 01:45:56,680 --> 01:45:59,240 Speaker 2: would get a buy and a home game, even though 1988 01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:04,200 Speaker 2: they're ranked ninth overall, so technically they're ranked lower than Tennessee, 1989 01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:08,240 Speaker 2: who they'd be an underdog against Indiana, who they be 1990 01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:14,800 Speaker 2: an underdog against Penn State Texas, And I believe Ohio State. 1991 01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:17,040 Speaker 3: Who's the other team? Who's you know? 1992 01:46:17,160 --> 01:46:20,880 Speaker 2: Because Oregon's leading the Big ten. I got a problem 1993 01:46:20,880 --> 01:46:24,000 Speaker 2: because this is championship based. So if you're pissed off 1994 01:46:24,040 --> 01:46:26,479 Speaker 2: the BYU's there because the Big twelve is there, then 1995 01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:27,559 Speaker 2: transferred to the Big twelve? 1996 01:46:27,960 --> 01:46:28,840 Speaker 3: Do you did the. 1997 01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:33,200 Speaker 2: BYU ranking catch your eye all in any negative sense? 1998 01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:37,400 Speaker 7: Not really, although I do personally feel that it should 1999 01:46:37,439 --> 01:46:39,680 Speaker 7: be based on who the top actual teams are and 2000 01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:41,800 Speaker 7: they should be seated according much like it is in 2001 01:46:41,880 --> 01:46:44,920 Speaker 7: March Madness, where the top teams are the number one 2002 01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:46,920 Speaker 7: seeds and they just go down regardless of who is. 2003 01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:50,880 Speaker 2: You don't have home games or buys in March Madness. See, 2004 01:46:51,200 --> 01:46:52,600 Speaker 2: so that's what's changed this. 2005 01:46:53,400 --> 01:46:53,839 Speaker 3: You wouldn't. 2006 01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:59,360 Speaker 2: I've always wanted the tournament quote unquote to be championship based, 2007 01:46:59,680 --> 01:47:02,800 Speaker 2: meaning win your damn conference and we'll go from there. 2008 01:47:03,040 --> 01:47:05,320 Speaker 3: And they're doing that here. But here's what's interesting. 2009 01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:08,320 Speaker 2: If you look at the committee's top twenty five rankings 2010 01:47:08,560 --> 01:47:12,040 Speaker 2: right now, BYU's ninth, but they'd be fourth in the 2011 01:47:12,080 --> 01:47:14,000 Speaker 2: tournament because they'll win the big twelve. 2012 01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:17,040 Speaker 7: You follow me, He's yeah, And that's why I think 2013 01:47:17,080 --> 01:47:20,120 Speaker 7: it should be. It should really be based purely off 2014 01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:22,840 Speaker 7: of who that now, I think the conference championship should 2015 01:47:22,840 --> 01:47:26,080 Speaker 7: be an automatic birth but in regards yes, but in 2016 01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:28,400 Speaker 7: regards to seeding, who gets the home game, who gets 2017 01:47:28,439 --> 01:47:28,720 Speaker 7: the buy? 2018 01:47:28,960 --> 01:47:29,120 Speaker 6: Ah? 2019 01:47:29,200 --> 01:47:31,559 Speaker 2: I see what you're saying. Yes, Ah, Okay, you make 2020 01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:35,800 Speaker 2: a good distinction there. So you're fine with the all 2021 01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:39,960 Speaker 2: the conference champions getting automatic pats regardless of the record. 2022 01:47:40,240 --> 01:47:41,840 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean you have to give him a 2023 01:47:41,840 --> 01:47:44,240 Speaker 2: buy and a home game exactly, all right. You know what, 2024 01:47:44,320 --> 01:47:48,400 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised, Kevin if they don't. It's the committee. 2025 01:47:48,439 --> 01:47:49,920 Speaker 2: They'll go back to the drawing. 2026 01:47:49,640 --> 01:47:51,400 Speaker 3: Board, and I don't know. 2027 01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:52,680 Speaker 2: If I don't know what the buy laws are, I 2028 01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:54,920 Speaker 2: would be surprised if they go back and give this 2029 01:47:54,920 --> 01:47:58,559 Speaker 2: a quarter turn. Maybe make that alteration. All right, excellent, 2030 01:47:59,000 --> 01:47:59,759 Speaker 2: share your thoughts. 2031 01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:01,760 Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, but Kevin kind of I mean, he 2032 01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:03,120 Speaker 10: didn't take it out of my mouth, but when I 2033 01:48:03,120 --> 01:48:04,519 Speaker 10: was listening to him, I wish I was able to 2034 01:48:04,600 --> 01:48:07,080 Speaker 10: think of something like that, because seriously, like that's when 2035 01:48:07,160 --> 01:48:08,960 Speaker 10: it comes down to it. That seems like the way 2036 01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:11,799 Speaker 10: to do it. And and like in terms of pros 2037 01:48:11,840 --> 01:48:14,800 Speaker 10: and cons, I kind of just see only pros in 2038 01:48:14,920 --> 01:48:17,800 Speaker 10: terms of the new college playoff, Like in terms of 2039 01:48:17,840 --> 01:48:21,600 Speaker 10: more teams being involved, Obviously there's gonna be complaints no 2040 01:48:21,640 --> 01:48:24,000 Speaker 10: matter what, because some teams won't make it in some 2041 01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:26,200 Speaker 10: will and that's gonna happen no matter what, and that 2042 01:48:26,320 --> 01:48:30,400 Speaker 10: was happening last year with Florida. But it's just I 2043 01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:33,839 Speaker 10: like it because on top of that, the longer path 2044 01:48:34,680 --> 01:48:39,479 Speaker 10: will kind of make it where it's a real true champion. Well, 2045 01:48:39,479 --> 01:48:41,479 Speaker 10: we'll see a lot of teams just have or get hot. 2046 01:48:41,479 --> 01:48:44,160 Speaker 10: Well not really, but they'll get hot, they'll have good 2047 01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:46,240 Speaker 10: three games, and then they'll win the championship. But then 2048 01:48:46,520 --> 01:48:48,200 Speaker 10: with a longer path. I just kind of like it 2049 01:48:48,240 --> 01:48:50,439 Speaker 10: just because they have to do more. You'll see them 2050 01:48:50,479 --> 01:48:53,760 Speaker 10: more and in terms of just high quality football, they'll 2051 01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,320 Speaker 10: be doing it back to back to back. So I 2052 01:48:55,320 --> 01:48:57,320 Speaker 10: think that's just gonna be fun for viewers as well 2053 01:48:57,360 --> 01:49:00,960 Speaker 10: as athletes. The buys obviously do bring up an issue. 2054 01:49:01,040 --> 01:49:02,640 Speaker 10: There's going to be just I feel like it's just 2055 01:49:02,680 --> 01:49:05,600 Speaker 10: gonna another thing that people can argue about and just 2056 01:49:05,600 --> 01:49:08,280 Speaker 10: get annoyed about. But in the end, I really liked 2057 01:49:08,320 --> 01:49:09,000 Speaker 10: Kevin's idea. 2058 01:49:10,120 --> 01:49:12,920 Speaker 2: You will have at least earned your buye. I mean, 2059 01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:16,040 Speaker 2: that's the way that's gonna work right now as of today, 2060 01:49:16,560 --> 01:49:21,439 Speaker 2: even after Saturday's results, you know, check that prior to 2061 01:49:21,439 --> 01:49:26,680 Speaker 2: Saturday's results Oregon BYU Georgia and Miami, you know it 2062 01:49:26,720 --> 01:49:29,840 Speaker 2: would have earned buys. So that's why I think the 2063 01:49:29,840 --> 01:49:34,040 Speaker 2: regular season. This playoff format makes the regular season even 2064 01:49:34,080 --> 01:49:38,920 Speaker 2: more meaningful as well, because you're playing for position, you're 2065 01:49:38,960 --> 01:49:42,240 Speaker 2: playing for home field advantage. You're playing for a buye 2066 01:49:42,840 --> 01:49:45,120 Speaker 2: and after go to Mark, I'll go to some of 2067 01:49:45,160 --> 01:49:47,120 Speaker 2: these matchups where they'd be and you can't tell me 2068 01:49:47,160 --> 01:49:50,280 Speaker 2: this is just going to do Baffo TV ratings. 2069 01:49:50,320 --> 01:49:51,360 Speaker 3: Mark, you got the last word. 2070 01:49:52,320 --> 01:49:54,799 Speaker 11: Well, just based on what I'm hearing, it just sounds 2071 01:49:54,880 --> 01:49:58,439 Speaker 11: like I guess if you have two losses, it doesn't 2072 01:49:58,800 --> 01:49:59,439 Speaker 11: it doesn't matter. 2073 01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:00,759 Speaker 1: You could still get in and. 2074 01:50:00,880 --> 01:50:03,880 Speaker 2: Well, it depends. If you have two losses, you'd better 2075 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:07,320 Speaker 2: have won your conference. But if you've won your conference, 2076 01:50:08,280 --> 01:50:11,559 Speaker 2: then the two loss aspect will matter because there's twelve 2077 01:50:11,600 --> 01:50:16,040 Speaker 2: spots and all powerful conference champions are getting a bid. 2078 01:50:16,360 --> 01:50:18,439 Speaker 11: I guess I just like the idea, like what you 2079 01:50:18,439 --> 01:50:20,920 Speaker 11: guys have been talking about. If you win your conference, 2080 01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:25,479 Speaker 11: win your conference, and only two losses, whoever gets in 2081 01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:27,160 Speaker 11: gets in and they can all fight it out and 2082 01:50:27,160 --> 01:50:29,960 Speaker 11: there's a bunch of games and everybody should be happy. 2083 01:50:31,640 --> 01:50:34,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you look at these matchups, all right, So 2084 01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:38,040 Speaker 2: Oregon right now is the number one seed overall. If 2085 01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:41,000 Speaker 2: the season would have ended today, which it didn't, through Saturday, 2086 01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:45,439 Speaker 2: Oregon would be waiting for the quarterfinal matchup against the 2087 01:50:45,479 --> 01:50:50,040 Speaker 2: winner of Indiana, who would visit Tennessee, Indiana's currently ninth, 2088 01:50:50,720 --> 01:50:56,960 Speaker 2: Tennessee's eighth. The winner would travel to Oregon. Prior to Saturday, 2089 01:50:57,040 --> 01:51:00,720 Speaker 2: the number two seed was Georgia. Data would have been 2090 01:51:00,720 --> 01:51:03,200 Speaker 2: waiting at home to play the winner of Notre Dame, 2091 01:51:03,200 --> 01:51:04,679 Speaker 2: who would have traveled to Penn State. 2092 01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:07,559 Speaker 3: Notre Dame's current tenth ranked team Penn. 2093 01:51:07,360 --> 01:51:11,120 Speaker 2: State seventh Miami before they lost and they still may 2094 01:51:11,160 --> 01:51:15,240 Speaker 2: be Okay, we'll see what happens Tuesday. Miami would be 2095 01:51:15,479 --> 01:51:18,479 Speaker 2: in their quarterfinal matchup at home, waiting for the winner 2096 01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:22,160 Speaker 2: of Alabama Texas. The game would be played at Texas 2097 01:51:22,160 --> 01:51:25,120 Speaker 2: because Alabama was an eleventh seed and Texas is a 2098 01:51:25,160 --> 01:51:29,200 Speaker 2: sixth seed. And here's where my theory of play the 2099 01:51:29,320 --> 01:51:33,320 Speaker 2: damn thing on the field. Boise State would visit Ohio State. 2100 01:51:33,400 --> 01:51:37,760 Speaker 2: Do I think Boise State would beat Ohio State in Columbus. 2101 01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:40,839 Speaker 3: No, But the winner of that game, let's. 2102 01:51:40,680 --> 01:51:44,080 Speaker 2: Presume it's Ohio State, they'd have to travel to BYU 2103 01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:47,000 Speaker 2: to play BYU in the quarterfinals. He'd say, well, they're 2104 01:51:47,000 --> 01:51:50,880 Speaker 2: going to kill BYU. Well, theoretically they should. Theoretically they might, 2105 01:51:51,439 --> 01:51:54,920 Speaker 2: but we have seen massive upsets in the past. We have, 2106 01:51:57,280 --> 01:51:59,360 Speaker 2: and I'm I'm not going to go through a history 2107 01:51:59,400 --> 01:52:03,240 Speaker 2: lesson right now and list them all, but BYU and 2108 01:52:03,280 --> 01:52:06,000 Speaker 2: their school history has frankly been a giant killer. Now, 2109 01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:08,519 Speaker 2: do I really think they'd beat Ohio State. No, But 2110 01:52:08,600 --> 01:52:14,120 Speaker 2: rather than theoretically surmised, like Kevin said, just treat it 2111 01:52:14,160 --> 01:52:18,560 Speaker 2: as if it's an ice skating tournament or you know, gymnastics, 2112 01:52:18,560 --> 01:52:24,800 Speaker 2: where they scores and the results become subjective, this is objective. 2113 01:52:25,080 --> 01:52:26,759 Speaker 3: You've got to beat them on the field. 2114 01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:31,200 Speaker 2: So then the four quarterfinal games, they're not played at 2115 01:52:31,280 --> 01:52:34,880 Speaker 2: campus sites. Those four games, which will be scheduled New 2116 01:52:34,960 --> 01:52:37,880 Speaker 2: Year's Eve and New Year's Day, will be played at 2117 01:52:37,880 --> 01:52:41,479 Speaker 2: the Fiesta Bowl, the Rose Bowl, the Peach Bowl, and 2118 01:52:41,520 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 2: the Sugar Bowl. The four highest ranked conference champions will 2119 01:52:46,280 --> 01:52:48,760 Speaker 2: be signed one of those bulls because they want to 2120 01:52:48,800 --> 01:52:53,439 Speaker 2: pay homage and honor the historic bull relationships as well 2121 01:52:53,439 --> 01:52:56,360 Speaker 2: as seeding so they'll feel more normal. Then all of 2122 01:52:56,400 --> 01:52:58,920 Speaker 2: a sudden, you got the four quarter final winners. They're 2123 01:52:58,920 --> 01:53:00,880 Speaker 2: going to meet at the semi final either the Orange 2124 01:53:00,880 --> 01:53:04,160 Speaker 2: Bowl or the Cotton Bowl. That's January ninth and January tenth. 2125 01:53:04,479 --> 01:53:07,479 Speaker 2: If those seeds hold, one would beat four, two would 2126 01:53:07,479 --> 01:53:10,280 Speaker 2: play three. The two semi final winners then play on 2127 01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:14,439 Speaker 2: Janual on January twentieth. Tell me that's not gonna be 2128 01:53:14,479 --> 01:53:19,200 Speaker 2: a big day. That's a Monday, that's Martin Luther King Day. 2129 01:53:19,360 --> 01:53:25,040 Speaker 2: That's the presidential augeration Day, January twentieth, that will culminate 2130 01:53:25,120 --> 01:53:28,840 Speaker 2: a month long tournament. I think this is going to 2131 01:53:28,880 --> 01:53:33,320 Speaker 2: be incredible, and I don't know that people are gonna argue. 2132 01:53:33,400 --> 01:53:35,439 Speaker 2: And I hate it when people go on the radio 2133 01:53:35,479 --> 01:53:38,160 Speaker 2: and say, well, you know, you got twelve teams. People 2134 01:53:38,160 --> 01:53:40,280 Speaker 2: gonna argue you could put twenty four teams. Someone's still 2135 01:53:40,280 --> 01:53:43,760 Speaker 2: gonna argue you. That's not true because the arguments are specious. 2136 01:53:44,160 --> 01:53:47,040 Speaker 2: This is decided on the field. That's the beauty of this. 2137 01:53:47,479 --> 01:53:51,160 Speaker 2: When your conference and you're in after that, win as 2138 01:53:51,200 --> 01:53:53,240 Speaker 2: many games as you can, have the highest seed, you 2139 01:53:53,280 --> 01:53:55,880 Speaker 2: can have quality wins, and you're in. 2140 01:53:56,479 --> 01:53:57,880 Speaker 3: This is not gonna be subjective. 2141 01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:01,200 Speaker 2: Last year, Florida would have been in even if their 2142 01:54:01,280 --> 01:54:05,080 Speaker 2: quarterback went down because he won the ACC And the 2143 01:54:05,080 --> 01:54:07,840 Speaker 2: bottom line is, while it's presumed Florida State might not 2144 01:54:07,880 --> 01:54:11,559 Speaker 2: a farreedwell, we're never gonna know. And that's the thing 2145 01:54:12,840 --> 01:54:16,080 Speaker 2: coming up. The Bernie Fraddle Show continues on Bernie Frattle. 2146 01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:18,599 Speaker 2: We are coming to live from the Las Vegas Fox 2147 01:54:18,600 --> 01:54:21,080 Speaker 2: Sports Radio TIREC dot com studios.

We are just nine minutes away from 2152 01:54:35,280 --> 01:54:37,080 Speaker 2: the dance sensation sweep in the nation. 2153 01:54:37,200 --> 01:54:41,320 Speaker 3: What kind of brand new fool you followed by? What 2154 01:54:41,600 --> 01:54:42,160 Speaker 3: my name? 2155 01:54:42,600 --> 01:54:44,680 Speaker 2: By the way, just but it couldn't get any worse 2156 01:54:44,720 --> 01:54:48,680 Speaker 2: for the Cowboys. Dak Prescott the sixty million dollar man. 2157 01:54:48,760 --> 01:54:52,080 Speaker 2: Divide that by three wins twenty million dollars a win 2158 01:54:52,960 --> 01:54:58,200 Speaker 2: for Jerry Jones, he's planning to undergo season enduring season 2159 01:54:58,360 --> 01:55:03,880 Speaker 2: ending surgery partially torn hamstring, according to reports this past week. 2160 01:55:04,240 --> 01:55:05,400 Speaker 3: I guess he's going to meet. 2161 01:55:05,240 --> 01:55:07,800 Speaker 2: With another specialist to get a final opinion before going, 2162 01:55:08,400 --> 01:55:12,160 Speaker 2: you know, getting the operation. And if he gets the operation, 2163 01:55:12,320 --> 01:55:14,000 Speaker 2: he'll be sidelined for four months. 2164 01:55:15,400 --> 01:55:16,720 Speaker 3: If he ops. 2165 01:55:16,400 --> 01:55:19,080 Speaker 2: Against surgery, he'll be out six to eight weeks, just 2166 01:55:19,160 --> 01:55:21,800 Speaker 2: in time for the Cowboys to not make the playoffs. 2167 01:55:22,240 --> 01:55:23,840 Speaker 3: It's been a. 2168 01:55:23,320 --> 01:55:26,760 Speaker 2: Pretty more abund year nineteen hundred yards passing, eleven touchdowns, 2169 01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:27,640 Speaker 2: eight interceptions. 2170 01:55:27,960 --> 01:55:28,880 Speaker 3: They're three and five. 2171 01:55:29,240 --> 01:55:34,600 Speaker 2: Looks like Cooper Rush will start. Trey Lance, a guy 2172 01:55:34,640 --> 01:55:39,240 Speaker 2: who was once acquired when the team traded for three 2173 01:55:39,280 --> 01:55:41,800 Speaker 2: first round draft picks to get him. Yeah, how'd that 2174 01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:45,040 Speaker 2: work out? The Cowboys storyline is one to watch. I mean, 2175 01:55:45,040 --> 01:55:48,680 Speaker 2: they're returning home. But in twenty twenty four, I mean, 2176 01:55:48,720 --> 01:55:52,160 Speaker 2: going into this season, they'd won like sixteen straight home games. 2177 01:55:52,920 --> 01:55:56,000 Speaker 2: Now the Cowboys are on and three. After those sixteen 2178 01:55:56,080 --> 01:55:59,280 Speaker 2: straight regular season wins at AT and T Stadium, they've been 2179 01:55:59,280 --> 01:56:03,000 Speaker 2: outscored by sixty six points. The Cowboys have in those defeats. 2180 01:56:03,200 --> 01:56:06,400 Speaker 2: They won't have Dak Prescott Sunday, Big Dan deal, you 2181 01:56:06,480 --> 01:56:12,080 Speaker 2: weren't winning with him anyway. Interestingly enough, Cooper Rush is 2182 01:56:12,200 --> 01:56:15,640 Speaker 2: five to one as a starter in the NFL in 2183 01:56:15,680 --> 01:56:19,200 Speaker 2: his career. The loss came in twenty twenty two against 2184 01:56:19,240 --> 01:56:22,840 Speaker 2: the Eagles, who the Cowboys are conveniently playing Sunday. Got 2185 01:56:22,880 --> 01:56:27,760 Speaker 2: picked off three times that day, and you know, I think, well, 2186 01:56:27,760 --> 01:56:29,920 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two is the last year Cooper Rush even 2187 01:56:29,960 --> 01:56:34,400 Speaker 2: started in a game. Interestingly enough, also, this makes no sense, 2188 01:56:34,440 --> 01:56:36,879 Speaker 2: but it doesn't matter. There's no context. 2189 01:56:36,960 --> 01:56:37,200 Speaker 3: To this. 2190 01:56:38,160 --> 01:56:40,680 Speaker 2: Running back Saquon Barkley is zero to ten in his 2191 01:56:40,760 --> 01:56:44,040 Speaker 2: career against the Cowboys. Of course, all those losses came 2192 01:56:44,080 --> 01:56:46,879 Speaker 2: when he was a member of the New York Football Giants. 2193 01:56:47,440 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 2: He's got a much more talented group in Philadelphia. They 2194 01:56:50,480 --> 01:56:54,080 Speaker 2: flourished through eight games. Barkley has been everything as advertised, 2195 01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:57,400 Speaker 2: averaging almost six yards of carry, ranked second in rushing 2196 01:56:57,480 --> 01:57:01,680 Speaker 2: yards per game, only behind Derrick Henry. And remember he's 2197 01:57:01,720 --> 01:57:05,240 Speaker 2: coming off that electric game and that hurdling reverse hurdle 2198 01:57:05,600 --> 01:57:10,480 Speaker 2: against Jacksonville. Should be an interesting game. The AJ Brown 2199 01:57:10,680 --> 01:57:12,480 Speaker 2: is dealing with an injury, but he's back. They're in 2200 01:57:12,520 --> 01:57:15,080 Speaker 2: a great spot. I hate to say it, this just 2201 01:57:15,120 --> 01:57:18,160 Speaker 2: feels like a thirty one to fourteen Eagles win. I 2202 01:57:18,160 --> 01:57:22,080 Speaker 2: don't even know if the Cowboys can score fourteen. We'll 2203 01:57:22,080 --> 01:57:24,440 Speaker 2: see who the brand new fools are speaking of that 2204 01:57:25,040 --> 01:57:26,760 Speaker 2: We are just six minutes away. 2205 01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:29,840 Speaker 3: What kind of brand new fool? You followed by? What 2206 01:57:30,000 --> 01:57:31,240 Speaker 3: my name? Keep it locked? 2207 01:57:31,480 --> 01:57:35,080 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bernie Frattle Show on Fox Sports Radio. 2208 01:57:36,880 --> 01:57:40,480 Speaker 2: Well that's right, you heard the man Bernie.

These are more 2216 01:58:10,000 --> 01:58:13,880 Speaker 2: tidbits of information that you might impress your friends with 2217 01:58:13,920 --> 01:58:17,120 Speaker 2: at the bar as you head into this NFL weekend 2218 01:58:17,200 --> 01:58:20,560 Speaker 2: which is upon us. Obviously, we've got one game of 2219 01:58:20,600 --> 01:58:25,880 Speaker 2: the books Thursday night Cincinnati and Baltimore, and in about 2220 01:58:25,920 --> 01:58:28,840 Speaker 2: five and a half hours the New York Giants at 2221 01:58:28,880 --> 01:58:31,839 Speaker 2: Alion Stadium in Munich. 2222 01:58:32,960 --> 01:58:34,720 Speaker 3: We'll kick it off against. 2223 01:58:34,560 --> 01:58:40,840 Speaker 2: The Carolina Panthers. And currently I think the Giants you're 2224 01:58:40,880 --> 01:58:42,480 Speaker 2: up to like six and a half point favorites. But 2225 01:58:42,800 --> 01:58:46,400 Speaker 2: be that as it may. How about those Chiefs. The 2226 01:58:46,520 --> 01:58:51,240 Speaker 2: Chiefs face the Broncos. They're sixteen and one straight up, 2227 01:58:51,960 --> 01:58:54,760 Speaker 2: ten and seven against the spread in their last eighteen 2228 01:58:54,840 --> 01:58:58,120 Speaker 2: games against the Broncos. I talked about this game earlier 2229 01:58:58,160 --> 01:59:02,000 Speaker 2: with Steve Fezick. This may be one of those situations 2230 01:59:02,040 --> 01:59:05,280 Speaker 2: where the eight points that the Broncos are getting offer 2231 01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:10,560 Speaker 2: pretty darn good value. They got embarrassed. The Broncos got 2232 01:59:10,560 --> 01:59:15,160 Speaker 2: embarrassed last week by the Baltimore Ravens, and I always 2233 01:59:15,480 --> 01:59:19,640 Speaker 2: managed to like teams who were embarrassed the week before 2234 01:59:20,320 --> 01:59:23,920 Speaker 2: that that sort of rally the following week and right 2235 01:59:24,000 --> 01:59:26,440 Speaker 2: the ship. By the way, Not for nothing, the Broncos 2236 01:59:26,440 --> 01:59:28,520 Speaker 2: are three and one against the spread at road as 2237 01:59:28,600 --> 01:59:31,480 Speaker 2: road underdogs this year. And let's also not forget the 2238 01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:35,240 Speaker 2: Chiefs not only play Buffalo next week. They're human, not 2239 01:59:35,280 --> 01:59:37,840 Speaker 2: saying they're looking ahead, but they're human. But they are 2240 01:59:37,880 --> 01:59:42,040 Speaker 2: also coming off an overtime game last week, and teams 2241 01:59:42,080 --> 01:59:46,200 Speaker 2: who play an overtime game the week before only cover 2242 01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:49,720 Speaker 2: the number forty three percent the following week. Eight points 2243 01:59:49,760 --> 01:59:52,920 Speaker 2: is a lot. The Bears three and zero straight up 2244 01:59:52,920 --> 01:59:56,200 Speaker 2: and against the spread at home behind Caleb Williams actually 2245 01:59:56,240 --> 01:59:59,640 Speaker 2: winning by an average of twenty eight to fifteen, Bears 2246 01:59:59,640 --> 02:00:03,040 Speaker 2: aren't g in any of my money. The Chargers, given 2247 02:00:03,120 --> 02:00:07,520 Speaker 2: that stud defense averaging twelve point six yards check that 2248 02:00:07,680 --> 02:00:10,640 Speaker 2: twelve point six points per game. That they are allowing 2249 02:00:11,360 --> 02:00:13,120 Speaker 2: one and seven to the end of this year under 2250 02:00:13,120 --> 02:00:16,440 Speaker 2: new coach Jim Harbaugh not surprising because they run the 2251 02:00:16,440 --> 02:00:19,440 Speaker 2: ball that you clock and they play great defense. 2252 02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:23,480 Speaker 3: The Colts six. 2253 02:00:23,320 --> 02:00:25,480 Speaker 2: And one out right five to one against the spread 2254 02:00:25,920 --> 02:00:30,360 Speaker 2: in their last five home games versus the Buffalo Bills. 2255 02:00:31,320 --> 02:00:32,640 Speaker 3: If you could tell me what. 2256 02:00:32,640 --> 02:00:35,440 Speaker 2: Kind of quarterback play you're going to get out of 2257 02:00:35,480 --> 02:00:40,760 Speaker 2: the Colts on on Sunday catching four at home against 2258 02:00:40,760 --> 02:00:44,280 Speaker 2: Buffalo four to three and a half de penning, then 2259 02:00:44,640 --> 02:00:46,240 Speaker 2: they might be the side. But for now I got 2260 02:00:46,240 --> 02:00:50,280 Speaker 2: to sit that one out. The Cowboys allowing almost forty 2261 02:00:50,280 --> 02:00:52,200 Speaker 2: two points per game their last four home games. 2262 02:00:52,240 --> 02:00:53,000 Speaker 3: How does this happen? 2263 02:00:53,960 --> 02:00:57,080 Speaker 2: Mike Zimmer needs to be you know, needs to answer 2264 02:00:57,120 --> 02:00:59,960 Speaker 2: some questions. They're also nine to one against the spread 2265 02:01:00,040 --> 02:01:03,360 Speaker 2: in their last Division ten division home games. The Cowboys. 2266 02:01:03,520 --> 02:01:06,440 Speaker 2: Now again, you don't have Dak Prescott. You do have 2267 02:01:06,560 --> 02:01:12,320 Speaker 2: Cooper Rush who is starting. He's five and one as 2268 02:01:12,360 --> 02:01:15,080 Speaker 2: a starter in the NFL, but he hasn't started the 2269 02:01:15,120 --> 02:01:18,360 Speaker 2: game in two years, one month and twenty five days. 2270 02:01:18,360 --> 02:01:20,120 Speaker 2: But you are getting seven to seven and a half 2271 02:01:20,120 --> 02:01:24,000 Speaker 2: points at home. The Cowboys are They're really probably the 2272 02:01:24,040 --> 02:01:25,760 Speaker 2: only side to look at. You gotta hold your nose. 2273 02:01:25,800 --> 02:01:27,120 Speaker 2: You know who the books are going to need in 2274 02:01:27,160 --> 02:01:31,960 Speaker 2: the ball is in the air. The Giants, I think 2275 02:01:32,000 --> 02:01:33,960 Speaker 2: are happy as hell to get out of METLFE field. 2276 02:01:34,080 --> 02:01:36,080 Speaker 3: They haven't won a single game there. Zero to five. 2277 02:01:36,560 --> 02:01:38,960 Speaker 2: Again, they kick it off and Munich here in about 2278 02:01:38,960 --> 02:01:41,720 Speaker 2: half an hour, or check that five and a half hours, 2279 02:01:42,000 --> 02:01:44,120 Speaker 2: and they're five and oh straight up and against the spread. 2280 02:01:44,240 --> 02:01:47,480 Speaker 2: The New York Giants are their last five games on 2281 02:01:47,520 --> 02:01:49,680 Speaker 2: a neutral field, and they're actually four to zero against 2282 02:01:49,720 --> 02:01:53,440 Speaker 2: the spread versus the Jaguars in their last four games. Now, 2283 02:01:53,480 --> 02:01:56,760 Speaker 2: the New York Jets, this is an interesting game. They 2284 02:01:57,200 --> 02:02:01,840 Speaker 2: visit Arizona later today. They're very plucky Arizona Cardinals. You 2285 02:02:02,000 --> 02:02:05,680 Speaker 2: have to love the effort that the Arizona Cardinals give. 2286 02:02:06,160 --> 02:02:10,240 Speaker 2: They actually now lead the NFL and the NFC West, 2287 02:02:11,800 --> 02:02:15,200 Speaker 2: and you know, look, they've got a three game winning streak. 2288 02:02:15,240 --> 02:02:19,080 Speaker 2: The question is can Kyler Murray stand you know prosperity. 2289 02:02:20,000 --> 02:02:23,400 Speaker 2: The Jets opened up as a one point underdog. Money 2290 02:02:23,400 --> 02:02:26,000 Speaker 2: has come in on New York plus one and a half. 2291 02:02:26,080 --> 02:02:29,200 Speaker 2: Now the Cardinals are getting at home. Do you trust 2292 02:02:29,200 --> 02:02:32,720 Speaker 2: the Jets, especially since they are now four and thirteen 2293 02:02:32,760 --> 02:02:36,840 Speaker 2: against the spread in their last seventeen away games. For 2294 02:02:36,880 --> 02:02:39,880 Speaker 2: some reason, we're still paying that Jets tax and they 2295 02:02:39,920 --> 02:02:44,000 Speaker 2: won seven games last year with you know, pretty spotty 2296 02:02:44,040 --> 02:02:46,320 Speaker 2: quarterback play, but you got the Hall of Famer there. 2297 02:02:46,520 --> 02:02:50,440 Speaker 3: But they're just a dysfunctional mess. Can you truly trust 2298 02:02:50,640 --> 02:02:52,840 Speaker 3: the New York Jets? I can't. 2299 02:02:53,960 --> 02:02:57,520 Speaker 2: The Steelers seven to zero outright, five and two against 2300 02:02:57,520 --> 02:02:59,800 Speaker 2: the spread in their last seven games following a bye week, 2301 02:03:00,240 --> 02:03:03,120 Speaker 2: six and one outright against the Commanders. This is a 2302 02:03:03,240 --> 02:03:08,720 Speaker 2: very interesting game on Sunday, the Commanders laying two and 2303 02:03:08,720 --> 02:03:12,200 Speaker 2: a half against the visiting Steelers Washington seven to one 2304 02:03:12,280 --> 02:03:14,840 Speaker 2: on one against the spread this year, which is second 2305 02:03:14,920 --> 02:03:18,680 Speaker 2: best in the National Football League. Both teams, the Commandos 2306 02:03:18,840 --> 02:03:23,640 Speaker 2: and the Steelers, feature a three game winning streak. Couple things. 2307 02:03:24,160 --> 02:03:26,800 Speaker 2: The Steelers are only averaging twenty one points a game 2308 02:03:27,280 --> 02:03:31,520 Speaker 2: under justin fields. They're now averaging thirty one points a game. 2309 02:03:31,520 --> 02:03:35,720 Speaker 2: They're two starts with Russell Wilson. This is notable to me, 2310 02:03:35,800 --> 02:03:40,320 Speaker 2: though Mike Tomlin in his career as an underdog, manages 2311 02:03:40,400 --> 02:03:44,760 Speaker 2: to win those games outright fifty nine percent of the time. 2312 02:03:45,640 --> 02:03:46,200 Speaker 3: By the way, the. 2313 02:03:46,200 --> 02:03:49,920 Speaker 2: Vikings six and zero four one and one against the 2314 02:03:49,960 --> 02:03:54,200 Speaker 2: spread versus the Jaguars, I think the Vikings are real. 2315 02:03:55,040 --> 02:03:57,400 Speaker 2: You know, Sam Donald has come back to Earth a 2316 02:03:57,440 --> 02:04:01,840 Speaker 2: little bit. But you would expect that one thing I 2317 02:04:01,880 --> 02:04:04,800 Speaker 2: was remiss to mention Antonio Pearson his staff. The Raiders 2318 02:04:04,800 --> 02:04:07,240 Speaker 2: lose to the Bengals last week, forty one to twenty four. 2319 02:04:08,080 --> 02:04:09,640 Speaker 3: They actually Desmond. 2320 02:04:09,360 --> 02:04:12,600 Speaker 2: Ritter saw a time at quarterback for the Raiders, and 2321 02:04:12,920 --> 02:04:16,600 Speaker 2: after the game, the Raiders fired their offensive coordinator Lukeetzi. 2322 02:04:17,200 --> 02:04:20,360 Speaker 2: They fired an offensive line coach, James Craig, and their 2323 02:04:20,400 --> 02:04:24,320 Speaker 2: quarterback coach Rich Scangarello. It's a bye week overhaul for 2324 02:04:24,360 --> 02:04:28,200 Speaker 2: the two and seven Raiders. They ranked twenty eighth in offense. 2325 02:04:28,640 --> 02:04:31,520 Speaker 2: They're averaging just eighteen points a game. That's twenty sixth 2326 02:04:31,880 --> 02:04:33,840 Speaker 2: and only four point six yards per play. 2327 02:04:34,240 --> 02:04:38,080 Speaker 3: That is twenty ninth. Better times ahead, hopefully. 2328 02:04:38,640 --> 02:04:40,920 Speaker 2: If you are a Raider fan, it's quite an event 2329 02:04:40,960 --> 02:04:46,120 Speaker 2: here when the Raiders play at Allegiance Stadium, But it's honestly, 2330 02:04:46,200 --> 02:04:49,600 Speaker 2: it's become a home field disadvantage. You really can't slice 2331 02:04:49,600 --> 02:04:51,840 Speaker 2: it any other way. I think a lot of season 2332 02:04:51,880 --> 02:04:54,360 Speaker 2: ticket holders may have jumped ship. Can I prove it? 2333 02:04:54,440 --> 02:04:54,520 Speaker 9: No? 2334 02:04:54,680 --> 02:04:55,880 Speaker 3: Do I have the data to prove it. No? 2335 02:04:56,240 --> 02:04:59,880 Speaker 2: It just feels that way, and visiting fans all to 2336 02:05:00,160 --> 02:05:03,760 Speaker 2: happy to enjoy their time and at Allegiance Stadium, which 2337 02:05:03,800 --> 02:05:08,520 Speaker 2: is really quite a beautiful building.

The college football playoff is going 2346 02:05:34,200 --> 02:05:36,880 Speaker 2: to be turned a little bit upside down, not too 2347 02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:42,120 Speaker 2: dramatically because BYU managed to hold on and Oregon managed 2348 02:05:42,120 --> 02:05:47,200 Speaker 2: to hold on, but Georgia goes down right and Miami 2349 02:05:47,240 --> 02:05:50,800 Speaker 2: goes down. Although Miami is still by virtue of their record, 2350 02:05:50,920 --> 02:05:54,840 Speaker 2: still might right now hold that top seed because again, 2351 02:05:54,880 --> 02:06:00,800 Speaker 2: this is a championship based tournament like in the past 2352 02:06:00,800 --> 02:06:03,720 Speaker 2: where you had the the four team made for TV 2353 02:06:04,360 --> 02:06:09,120 Speaker 2: invitational tournament. You know, I said Friday night on my show, 2354 02:06:09,760 --> 02:06:14,160 Speaker 2: people didn't like it when they saw that BYU was 2355 02:06:14,200 --> 02:06:16,640 Speaker 2: the fourth seed and they were not only going to 2356 02:06:16,680 --> 02:06:19,040 Speaker 2: get a home playoff game, they would get a bye. Well, 2357 02:06:19,040 --> 02:06:21,600 Speaker 2: if you win your conference, that's the way this is 2358 02:06:21,640 --> 02:06:25,440 Speaker 2: going to work, so you can't complain about BYU. And 2359 02:06:25,480 --> 02:06:29,480 Speaker 2: they came back and got it done Saturday night in Utah. 2360 02:06:29,680 --> 02:06:31,920 Speaker 3: And the key is is it. 2361 02:06:31,960 --> 02:06:35,760 Speaker 2: All arguments with this playoff format are going to be 2362 02:06:35,760 --> 02:06:38,839 Speaker 2: decided on the field, as opposed to the previous format. 2363 02:06:39,440 --> 02:06:43,120 Speaker 3: It's championship based. Okay, I get it. The SEC is 2364 02:06:43,160 --> 02:06:44,360 Speaker 3: better than the Big Twelve. 2365 02:06:45,040 --> 02:06:49,200 Speaker 2: So if you're Texas or Alabama or LSU or Mississippi 2366 02:06:49,320 --> 02:06:51,880 Speaker 2: or one of those teams who certainly would be favored 2367 02:06:51,880 --> 02:06:54,040 Speaker 2: over BYU and a neutral in your butter because you 2368 02:06:54,040 --> 02:06:57,560 Speaker 2: believe you're better than BYU, fine, succeed from the SEC 2369 02:06:57,960 --> 02:07:00,640 Speaker 2: and go to a lesser conference. But you're not gonna 2370 02:07:00,680 --> 02:07:01,280 Speaker 2: do that, are you. 2371 02:07:01,920 --> 02:07:02,080 Speaker 3: Oh? 2372 02:07:02,080 --> 02:07:04,800 Speaker 2: By the way you watch, the SEC will get four 2373 02:07:04,840 --> 02:07:07,400 Speaker 2: teams in this tournament. When all is said and done, 2374 02:07:07,600 --> 02:07:11,360 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve will get one. You don't like it, 2375 02:07:11,640 --> 02:07:15,120 Speaker 2: do something about it. Look, Alan Iverson once said, I 2376 02:07:15,120 --> 02:07:19,839 Speaker 2: don't like to lift weights because they're heavy, not easy. 2377 02:07:20,200 --> 02:07:23,360 Speaker 3: By the way, let's have a refresher coming up. 2378 02:07:23,440 --> 02:07:26,640 Speaker 2: Let's have a refresher on the college football playoff format 2379 02:07:27,360 --> 02:07:31,720 Speaker 2: because we're so focused on whether or not you know 2380 02:07:31,840 --> 02:07:33,800 Speaker 2: this is going to diminish the regular season. 2381 02:07:33,840 --> 02:07:36,640 Speaker 3: Who deserves to be there or not? You don't even 2382 02:07:36,640 --> 02:07:37,600 Speaker 3: know how it's gonna work. 2383 02:07:38,040 --> 02:07:39,840 Speaker 2: I can tell you exactly how it's gonna work, and 2384 02:07:39,840 --> 02:07:41,920 Speaker 2: I'll tell you the beauty of it is. It's one 2385 02:07:41,960 --> 02:07:44,240 Speaker 2: hell of a musical chairs money grab.

All Right? 2405 02:08:46,360 --> 02:08:48,760 Speaker 2: I want to talk about the new college Football Playoff 2406 02:08:48,800 --> 02:08:54,040 Speaker 2: format because you know that it's here. You have already 2407 02:08:54,080 --> 02:08:56,400 Speaker 2: had the first rankings and those have been somewhat broken 2408 02:08:56,480 --> 02:08:58,600 Speaker 2: up because of a couple of upsets Saturday. 2409 02:08:59,400 --> 02:09:01,200 Speaker 3: But let's break it down. 2410 02:09:01,280 --> 02:09:06,320 Speaker 2: Because the twelve participating teams will be the four conference 2411 02:09:06,440 --> 02:09:11,040 Speaker 2: champions ranked highest by the College Football Playoffs Selection Committee, 2412 02:09:11,480 --> 02:09:15,320 Speaker 2: plus the next eight highest ranked teams. Is in the past, 2413 02:09:15,840 --> 02:09:18,120 Speaker 2: the ranking of the teams, well, that part's going to 2414 02:09:18,160 --> 02:09:21,480 Speaker 2: be done by a selection committee. But if you win 2415 02:09:21,520 --> 02:09:27,000 Speaker 2: your conference champions champion and you are a power for school, 2416 02:09:27,280 --> 02:09:28,879 Speaker 2: you don't include the Pac two anymore. 2417 02:09:30,040 --> 02:09:30,400 Speaker 3: You're in. 2418 02:09:31,080 --> 02:09:32,720 Speaker 2: No matter what your record is, you could be a 2419 02:09:32,720 --> 02:09:35,680 Speaker 2: three loss SEC team. Let me tell you, if you 2420 02:09:35,720 --> 02:09:40,120 Speaker 2: win your conference, it's championship based. You're getting in. You're 2421 02:09:40,200 --> 02:09:41,840 Speaker 2: gonna have a buy and you're evenna have a home game. 2422 02:09:42,680 --> 02:09:47,160 Speaker 2: So the four highest conference ranked champions are seeded one 2423 02:09:47,200 --> 02:09:49,680 Speaker 2: through four. They'll receive a first round buys or just said, 2424 02:09:51,080 --> 02:09:53,280 Speaker 2: the fifth conference champion is going. 2425 02:09:53,280 --> 02:09:54,800 Speaker 3: To be seeded where it was ranked. 2426 02:09:55,920 --> 02:09:57,560 Speaker 2: Right now, that looks like it's boys going to be 2427 02:09:57,560 --> 02:10:00,960 Speaker 2: Boise State, or they'll be ranked at number twelve if 2428 02:10:00,960 --> 02:10:04,600 Speaker 2: they're outside the top twelve rankings. No non conference champions 2429 02:10:05,080 --> 02:10:07,640 Speaker 2: ranked in the top four would beginning, you know, seated 2430 02:10:07,800 --> 02:10:11,080 Speaker 2: four and one. Bubbah, you get the picture. But because 2431 02:10:11,120 --> 02:10:14,320 Speaker 2: of this, here's the deal, the seedings one through twelve 2432 02:10:14,360 --> 02:10:19,280 Speaker 2: could actually look a little different than the final rankings. Now, 2433 02:10:19,600 --> 02:10:23,120 Speaker 2: the eight team seeded five through twelve will play in 2434 02:10:23,200 --> 02:10:26,600 Speaker 2: a first round, with the higher seeds hosting the lower seeds, 2435 02:10:26,920 --> 02:10:30,920 Speaker 2: either on campus or other sites designated by the higher 2436 02:10:30,960 --> 02:10:35,480 Speaker 2: seeded institution. So look, you know, you get twelve five. 2437 02:10:35,560 --> 02:10:37,760 Speaker 2: We talked about that. Right now, it's Boise State and 2438 02:10:37,800 --> 02:10:40,720 Speaker 2: Ohio State. And I guess it's kind of toughs silly 2439 02:10:40,800 --> 02:10:45,920 Speaker 2: to project potential matchups because with Georgia going down to 2440 02:10:45,960 --> 02:10:48,400 Speaker 2: Miami going down, they could change. You know, BYU managed 2441 02:10:48,400 --> 02:10:50,720 Speaker 2: to hang in there, but if By you would have lost. 2442 02:10:50,880 --> 02:10:55,680 Speaker 2: If butts candy and nuts, they'd have been tied with Colorado. Colorado, though, 2443 02:10:55,720 --> 02:10:57,800 Speaker 2: as we talked about earlier, you got to give them 2444 02:10:57,840 --> 02:11:00,280 Speaker 2: a lot of credit, man, for what coach Prime is done. 2445 02:11:00,880 --> 02:11:03,839 Speaker 2: If they went out, they're going to get in the playoff. 2446 02:11:04,600 --> 02:11:07,880 Speaker 2: So that's something I'm watching in This is championship base. 2447 02:11:07,960 --> 02:11:10,600 Speaker 2: It's going to be decided on the field, not by 2448 02:11:10,640 --> 02:11:14,640 Speaker 2: some committee the smoke phil room. Now, the selection committee 2449 02:11:14,640 --> 02:11:18,800 Speaker 2: will assign the four highest ranked conference champions to play 2450 02:11:18,800 --> 02:11:22,080 Speaker 2: in the quarterfinals, hosted by Bulls. That's where you start 2451 02:11:22,120 --> 02:11:24,400 Speaker 2: to hear the names of the Bulls. This will be 2452 02:11:24,440 --> 02:11:28,800 Speaker 2: done in consideration basically, you know, the historic bowl relationships, 2453 02:11:29,200 --> 02:11:31,480 Speaker 2: and then in consideration of ranking. So you'll start to 2454 02:11:31,520 --> 02:11:35,440 Speaker 2: see some of the traditional bowl games being you know, 2455 02:11:35,520 --> 02:11:36,200 Speaker 2: the front for. 2456 02:11:36,840 --> 02:11:38,640 Speaker 3: The College Football Playoff. 2457 02:11:40,640 --> 02:11:44,000 Speaker 2: Now, the bracket is going to remain in effect throughout 2458 02:11:44,000 --> 02:11:47,480 Speaker 2: the playoff. There's not going to be any receding, and 2459 02:11:47,520 --> 02:11:52,040 Speaker 2: the highest seed is going to receive preferential treatment placement 2460 02:11:52,880 --> 02:11:55,040 Speaker 2: for this semi final bowl as well. 2461 02:11:56,400 --> 02:11:57,960 Speaker 3: And and of course. 2462 02:11:57,800 --> 02:12:00,880 Speaker 2: Uh the you know, all eleven games will be played 2463 02:12:00,960 --> 02:12:03,840 Speaker 2: under the College Football Playoff umbrella, and you know all 2464 02:12:03,880 --> 02:12:06,640 Speaker 2: the policies will follow. But here's it's going to start 2465 02:12:06,840 --> 02:12:11,160 Speaker 2: December twentieth, I believe it's gonna here. Here's what's really cool. 2466 02:12:11,600 --> 02:12:15,280 Speaker 2: This is basically going to be a month long ordeal 2467 02:12:16,080 --> 02:12:18,560 Speaker 2: and tell me you're not here for it. You got 2468 02:12:18,680 --> 02:12:21,600 Speaker 2: round one and everybody's going to have their hand in 2469 02:12:21,640 --> 02:12:26,720 Speaker 2: the pie, all right. Round one one of the Round 2470 02:12:26,800 --> 02:12:30,400 Speaker 2: one games will be hosted by T and T Sports 2471 02:12:31,320 --> 02:12:33,839 Speaker 2: and various other networks as well. 2472 02:12:33,920 --> 02:12:35,880 Speaker 3: Right, here's here's the beauty. 2473 02:12:35,920 --> 02:12:40,560 Speaker 2: By the way, it's December twentieth. They're going to be 2474 02:12:40,600 --> 02:12:45,840 Speaker 2: competing against the Texans Chief Steelers Ravens, and also another 2475 02:12:45,920 --> 02:12:48,879 Speaker 2: Round one game at eight o'clock on ABC ESPN. 2476 02:12:48,960 --> 02:12:52,720 Speaker 3: But the dates as they go on. 2477 02:12:53,400 --> 02:12:59,320 Speaker 2: They will start on Friday, December twentieth, and they're going 2478 02:12:59,400 --> 02:13:04,680 Speaker 2: to continue on all the way through January. January January 2479 02:13:04,680 --> 02:13:08,760 Speaker 2: twentieth will be when the championship game is. So this 2480 02:13:08,840 --> 02:13:11,440 Speaker 2: is going to be quite I think quite the ordeal. 2481 02:13:12,520 --> 02:13:16,600 Speaker 2: And there's no question that you know. I think it's 2482 02:13:16,640 --> 02:13:19,360 Speaker 2: going to do baffle ratings. And let's talk about the money. 2483 02:13:20,040 --> 02:13:22,920 Speaker 2: Let's talk about the money real quickly. You've got a 2484 02:13:22,960 --> 02:13:27,800 Speaker 2: situation where this is ultimately turning into what I would call, 2485 02:13:27,920 --> 02:13:34,320 Speaker 2: in common parlance as a as a musical chair money 2486 02:13:34,320 --> 02:13:40,160 Speaker 2: grap a musical chair money grap. There is one hundred 2487 02:13:40,160 --> 02:13:43,160 Speaker 2: and sixteen million dollars up for grabs to distribute to 2488 02:13:43,160 --> 02:13:47,200 Speaker 2: all the conferences one hundred and sixteen million dollars. Now 2489 02:13:47,240 --> 02:13:50,160 Speaker 2: that's based on the teams to qualify for the College 2490 02:13:50,160 --> 02:13:54,080 Speaker 2: Football Playoff and they advance to subsequent rounds and I 2491 02:13:54,120 --> 02:13:56,600 Speaker 2: get to the college football team, you know, playoffs top 2492 02:13:56,640 --> 02:13:59,840 Speaker 2: two leaders and this you know, the selection committee. They 2493 02:13:59,840 --> 02:14:05,120 Speaker 2: don't factor in which conferences teams play in. They're trying 2494 02:14:05,160 --> 02:14:11,240 Speaker 2: to create parody and disparity based on how good these 2495 02:14:11,280 --> 02:14:13,880 Speaker 2: conferences are and based on the current ranking. 2496 02:14:13,920 --> 02:14:14,880 Speaker 3: For what do I mean by that? 2497 02:14:16,160 --> 02:14:21,240 Speaker 2: So the first pass, which was last Tuesday, ESPN did it. 2498 02:14:22,520 --> 02:14:23,960 Speaker 3: The Big Ten had four teams. 2499 02:14:23,960 --> 02:14:29,360 Speaker 2: Oregon obviously very deserving, They're undefeated, Ohio State very deserving. 2500 02:14:29,440 --> 02:14:36,800 Speaker 2: Their only loss is at Oregon. Penn State. They're deserving 2501 02:14:36,880 --> 02:14:41,120 Speaker 2: on paper, they bug me, but they're deserving. Their only loss, 2502 02:14:41,120 --> 02:14:44,280 Speaker 2: of course, is to Ohio State in a game they 2503 02:14:44,320 --> 02:14:47,880 Speaker 2: could have easily won. Maybe not easily, but they could 2504 02:14:47,920 --> 02:14:48,880 Speaker 2: have certainly certainly could. 2505 02:14:48,760 --> 02:14:49,200 Speaker 3: Have won it. 2506 02:14:49,720 --> 02:14:54,960 Speaker 2: And then Indiana Google them, Kurt Signetti wins, google them. 2507 02:14:55,040 --> 02:14:57,680 Speaker 2: They're ten to zero. Now they're gonna end up playing 2508 02:14:57,680 --> 02:15:01,880 Speaker 2: Ohio State. I still think Indiana's got a real path 2509 02:15:01,920 --> 02:15:04,480 Speaker 2: to the playoff. More so than Penn State does so 2510 02:15:04,720 --> 02:15:08,440 Speaker 2: look big ten well deserving four teams, the SEC well 2511 02:15:08,440 --> 02:15:12,920 Speaker 2: deserving Georgia. Now Georgia got their second loss, but they 2512 02:15:12,960 --> 02:15:18,480 Speaker 2: still have a path to the playoffs. Texas very well deserving, 2513 02:15:18,640 --> 02:15:21,480 Speaker 2: Tennessee very well deserving, and Alabama all three to one 2514 02:15:21,480 --> 02:15:26,920 Speaker 2: today LSU the LSU Alabama game, I think you can 2515 02:15:26,960 --> 02:15:29,280 Speaker 2: scratch LSU off your dance card. I'm not sure their 2516 02:15:29,320 --> 02:15:33,640 Speaker 2: path to the playoff. And that's the other beauty of 2517 02:15:33,840 --> 02:15:38,240 Speaker 2: this new twelve team playoff. We had a legitimate college 2518 02:15:38,240 --> 02:15:42,720 Speaker 2: football playoff elimination game Saturday night in Baton Rouge, where 2519 02:15:42,800 --> 02:15:45,600 Speaker 2: number eleven Bama at six and two, played number fifteen 2520 02:15:45,720 --> 02:15:51,640 Speaker 2: LSU because both schools had two losses each. Yes, it's 2521 02:15:51,720 --> 02:15:54,960 Speaker 2: wild that they're still in the playoff conversation, but this 2522 02:15:55,040 --> 02:15:58,320 Speaker 2: is the new reality. This is the new reality. A 2523 02:15:58,360 --> 02:16:01,480 Speaker 2: third defeat probably ends their hopes. But think about this. 2524 02:16:02,280 --> 02:16:04,800 Speaker 2: If this game had been played last year under the 2525 02:16:04,840 --> 02:16:10,160 Speaker 2: goofy four team TV Invitational Made for TV Invitational Department 2526 02:16:10,200 --> 02:16:13,280 Speaker 2: of Redundancy Department, this game had been played for pride 2527 02:16:13,640 --> 02:16:17,080 Speaker 2: and certainly under the BCS era, and of course, obviously 2528 02:16:17,120 --> 02:16:18,880 Speaker 2: when there was no playoff back in the day when 2529 02:16:18,920 --> 02:16:21,720 Speaker 2: the writers would get together and flip a coin and 2530 02:16:21,760 --> 02:16:23,560 Speaker 2: put their heads together, make a rock pile and come 2531 02:16:23,600 --> 02:16:27,560 Speaker 2: up with a national champion. I'll never forget nineteen seventy eight. 2532 02:16:27,840 --> 02:16:30,760 Speaker 2: The USC strolled down to Alabama, a very good Alabama team. 2533 02:16:30,760 --> 02:16:34,800 Speaker 2: Bear Bryant with Jeff routledgit quarterback, and USC was just loaded, 2534 02:16:35,320 --> 02:16:38,720 Speaker 2: maybe one of the greatest college football teams ever assembled. 2535 02:16:39,480 --> 02:16:42,000 Speaker 2: Forty two players on that roster ended up in the 2536 02:16:42,120 --> 02:16:43,240 Speaker 2: NFL at one time or another. 2537 02:16:43,240 --> 02:16:44,440 Speaker 3: Two Heisman Trophy winners. 2538 02:16:44,920 --> 02:16:48,800 Speaker 2: In the backfield, you had Marcus Allen as a blocking 2539 02:16:48,879 --> 02:16:51,760 Speaker 2: back for Charles White. They went down to Alabama and 2540 02:16:51,800 --> 02:16:54,600 Speaker 2: they led handily twenty four to seven in the fourth quarter, 2541 02:16:55,520 --> 02:17:00,280 Speaker 2: and they ended up winning twenty four to fourteen. Ers 2542 02:17:00,320 --> 02:17:03,000 Speaker 2: had the audacity to vote Alabama. I think in the 2543 02:17:03,000 --> 02:17:06,800 Speaker 2: eight people as number one USC and the UPI how 2544 02:17:06,800 --> 02:17:09,520 Speaker 2: would you vote Alabama over USC when USC beat them 2545 02:17:09,560 --> 02:17:12,760 Speaker 2: by ten points in there at their home field? All right, 2546 02:17:13,080 --> 02:17:16,640 Speaker 2: That's why this twelve team format is so great. You 2547 02:17:16,760 --> 02:17:19,240 Speaker 2: got the SEC with four teams, the Big Ten with 2548 02:17:19,280 --> 02:17:23,080 Speaker 2: four teams, the ECC has one team. It's all they deserve. 2549 02:17:23,280 --> 02:17:27,160 Speaker 2: Miami the Big twelve one team, right, now BUYU. That's 2550 02:17:27,200 --> 02:17:30,000 Speaker 2: all they deserve. The Mountain West will have Boise State 2551 02:17:30,040 --> 02:17:32,600 Speaker 2: at yet large, and of course Notre Dame will be 2552 02:17:33,240 --> 02:17:38,199 Speaker 2: the you know, the independent team in the group. Again, 2553 02:17:38,440 --> 02:17:40,800 Speaker 2: there is one hundred and sixteen million dollars up for 2554 02:17:40,840 --> 02:17:44,000 Speaker 2: grabs to distribute to conferences based on all these teams 2555 02:17:44,000 --> 02:17:47,600 Speaker 2: who qualify. And I'll tell you this has created what 2556 02:17:47,720 --> 02:17:52,760 Speaker 2: I think, phenomenal interest in November games that might not 2557 02:17:52,920 --> 02:17:55,920 Speaker 2: have it. And I also think it's created, you know, 2558 02:17:56,840 --> 02:18:03,120 Speaker 2: phenomenal I think matchups whereas in the past where you 2559 02:18:03,200 --> 02:18:08,840 Speaker 2: might look to two teams that aren't necessarily going to 2560 02:18:08,879 --> 02:18:10,960 Speaker 2: find their way into any kind of playoff because they 2561 02:18:10,959 --> 02:18:13,040 Speaker 2: really didn't exist. Again, I keep calling it the four 2562 02:18:13,080 --> 02:18:17,080 Speaker 2: team made for TV Invitational. And this is what I 2563 02:18:17,080 --> 02:18:19,560 Speaker 2: thought at the beginning of the season, because some people 2564 02:18:19,600 --> 02:18:22,120 Speaker 2: thought the twelve team playoff would shift the tenor of 2565 02:18:22,200 --> 02:18:26,320 Speaker 2: the regular season. Now, two losses for a national power 2566 02:18:26,320 --> 02:18:28,560 Speaker 2: doesn't mean as much. You saw what happen in the 2567 02:18:28,720 --> 02:18:31,959 Speaker 2: LSU Alabama game. Alabama is live. I think they're getting 2568 02:18:31,959 --> 02:18:36,000 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. The regular season has not lost its intensity. 2569 02:18:36,959 --> 02:18:39,560 Speaker 2: That's a fact. There's more to play for and by 2570 02:18:39,600 --> 02:18:41,680 Speaker 2: the way, you're not just playing for a bid, you're 2571 02:18:41,720 --> 02:18:44,279 Speaker 2: also playing to host the first round game on campus, 2572 02:18:44,560 --> 02:18:47,959 Speaker 2: another aspect of this LA and maybe even earning a 2573 02:18:47,959 --> 02:18:51,120 Speaker 2: first round by plus, we're going to get a guaranteed 2574 02:18:51,160 --> 02:18:53,520 Speaker 2: group of five conference in their team. Right now, it 2575 02:18:53,520 --> 02:18:56,000 Speaker 2: looks like Boise State that's going to get a guaranteed bid. 2576 02:18:56,360 --> 02:18:59,280 Speaker 2: Tell me this doesn't move the needle. I think it does. 2577 02:19:00,560 --> 02:19:02,600 Speaker 2: Coming up, we're gonna bring in the crew, get their thoughts. 2578 02:19:02,640 --> 02:19:07,720 Speaker 2: Not everybody likes it. Some people see loopholes. I don't 2579 02:19:08,040 --> 02:19:11,520 Speaker 2: you saw how people lost their mind about BYU being 2580 02:19:11,520 --> 02:19:15,320 Speaker 2: the fourth ranked team and they might get on the 2581 02:19:15,360 --> 02:19:17,800 Speaker 2: field with the team. A team like Mississippi might not 2582 02:19:17,840 --> 02:19:20,440 Speaker 2: even make the playoff and they'd be an underdog. But again, 2583 02:19:20,480 --> 02:19:24,240 Speaker 2: this is championship based. Win your conference. You don't like it, 2584 02:19:24,360 --> 02:19:26,400 Speaker 2: move to another conference. You're not gonna do that, are 2585 02:19:26,440 --> 02:19:29,360 Speaker 2: you and me? As they said the SEC, they'll get 2586 02:19:29,360 --> 02:19:32,560 Speaker 2: four teams in this tournament, but the Big twelve they'll 2587 02:19:32,560 --> 02:19:33,200 Speaker 2: probably get one. 2588 02:19:33,240 --> 02:19:35,760 Speaker 3: They're gonna have to win their conference. So coming up, 2589 02:19:36,080 --> 02:19:37,440 Speaker 3: we'll chop that up with the crew. 2590 02:19:37,920 --> 02:19:40,520 Speaker 2: In the meantime, let's go to our guy, Kevin Wired 2591 02:19:40,640 --> 02:19:43,640 Speaker 2: with another Boffer performance as the chef A little mellow 2592 02:19:43,760 --> 02:19:44,440 Speaker 2: chef tonight. 2593 02:19:44,640 --> 02:19:46,240 Speaker 3: Uh all ballant. 2594 02:19:46,040 --> 02:19:50,560 Speaker 7: Really keeping it uh keeping it smooth tonight. That's how 2595 02:19:50,600 --> 02:19:54,039 Speaker 7: I like it sometimes. So anyway, it was really not 2596 02:19:54,160 --> 02:19:56,600 Speaker 7: a smooth day in college football. In fact, it was 2597 02:19:56,720 --> 02:20:00,720 Speaker 7: a day full of chaos. Says we're gonna change in 2598 02:20:00,760 --> 02:20:05,359 Speaker 7: the playoff rankings very possibly so because Number three Georgia 2599 02:20:05,480 --> 02:20:08,119 Speaker 7: going on the road, losing to Ole Miss twenty eight 2600 02:20:08,160 --> 02:20:11,200 Speaker 7: to ten, Carson Beck struggling to take care of the 2601 02:20:11,240 --> 02:20:16,080 Speaker 7: football on Saturday and interception of fumble five sacks he took. 2602 02:20:16,200 --> 02:20:20,520 Speaker 7: As the Bulldogs now two losses in SEC play, they 2603 02:20:20,520 --> 02:20:23,600 Speaker 7: get leapfrogged by teams like Tennessee, Texas, A and M 2604 02:20:24,240 --> 02:20:27,120 Speaker 7: and Texas in the overall standing. So we'll see exactly 2605 02:20:27,320 --> 02:20:31,920 Speaker 7: where that leaves Georgia in the pecking order. Number four Miami, 2606 02:20:32,520 --> 02:20:36,400 Speaker 7: their undefeated season is no more as Georgia Tech win 2607 02:20:36,520 --> 02:20:39,680 Speaker 7: to twenty eight twenty three. So the Hurricanes now nine 2608 02:20:39,760 --> 02:20:42,240 Speaker 7: and one. Camp Ward did play very well three hundred 2609 02:20:42,240 --> 02:20:46,000 Speaker 7: and forty eight yards and three touchdowns, but the Hurricanes 2610 02:20:46,640 --> 02:20:50,400 Speaker 7: now join the ranks of the teams that have losses. 2611 02:20:50,520 --> 02:20:53,480 Speaker 7: Number five Texas though and easy win forty nine to 2612 02:20:53,480 --> 02:20:58,280 Speaker 7: seventeen five touchdown passes by Quinn yours the top two 2613 02:20:58,280 --> 02:21:01,280 Speaker 7: teams in the country Oregon in Hawaii State, both of 2614 02:21:01,280 --> 02:21:04,720 Speaker 7: them with easy wins, as the Ducks winning against Maryland 2615 02:21:04,760 --> 02:21:08,520 Speaker 7: thirty nineteen, buck Guy shutting out Purdue of forty five 2616 02:21:08,680 --> 02:21:13,120 Speaker 7: it's to nothing Number six Pence State thirty five six 2617 02:21:13,160 --> 02:21:17,080 Speaker 7: winners against Washington as much in before Tennessee wins against 2618 02:21:17,080 --> 02:21:21,560 Speaker 7: Mississippi State thirty three fourteen Number eight Indiana the Hoosiers 2619 02:21:21,560 --> 02:21:25,039 Speaker 7: for the first time in school history ten and oh 2620 02:21:25,160 --> 02:21:29,720 Speaker 7: they get by Michigan at twenty to fifteen. Elsewhere in 2621 02:21:30,000 --> 02:21:34,400 Speaker 7: college football, number eleven, Alabama going to Death Valley and 2622 02:21:34,560 --> 02:21:38,320 Speaker 7: winning at number fifteen LSU forty two to thirteen. Jalen 2623 02:21:38,360 --> 02:21:41,720 Speaker 7: Milroe twelve carries one hundred and eighty five yards of 2624 02:21:41,840 --> 02:21:47,280 Speaker 7: four touchdowns for the Crimson Tide. Number twelve a Boise 2625 02:21:47,320 --> 02:21:49,520 Speaker 7: State trying to assert themselves as the top group of 2626 02:21:49,640 --> 02:21:52,840 Speaker 7: five team and trying to get that playoff spot, as 2627 02:21:53,000 --> 02:21:55,959 Speaker 7: they do get by Nevada twenty eight two to twenty one. 2628 02:21:56,200 --> 02:22:00,320 Speaker 7: Ashton Gentry, a centational running back for the Broncos, in 2629 02:22:00,480 --> 02:22:05,600 Speaker 7: nine yards with three touchdowns on in the evening upset 2630 02:22:05,600 --> 02:22:07,960 Speaker 7: in the Big twelve. Kansas takes stand number seventeen, Iowa 2631 02:22:08,000 --> 02:22:11,480 Speaker 7: State thirty five, thirty six, Virginia winners at number eighteen, 2632 02:22:11,520 --> 02:22:15,040 Speaker 7: Pit twenty four nineteen, and number twenty four Missouri two 2633 02:22:15,080 --> 02:22:17,600 Speaker 7: touchdowns in the final two minutes to beat Oklahoma thirty 2634 02:22:17,640 --> 02:22:20,400 Speaker 7: to twenty three, as the Sooner struggling in their first 2635 02:22:20,400 --> 02:22:24,640 Speaker 7: season in SEC play at just one in five in 2636 02:22:24,840 --> 02:22:28,280 Speaker 7: their first campaign.

Excuse me, North Texas fourteen to three. 2639 02:22:35,040 --> 02:22:39,039 Speaker 2: Back to you, Bernie, all right, you've heard the discussion, chef. 2640 02:22:39,120 --> 02:22:43,080 Speaker 2: Let's start with you this twelve team playoff. You know, 2641 02:22:43,160 --> 02:22:46,960 Speaker 2: in the words of P. T. Barnum, Without promotion, something 2642 02:22:47,080 --> 02:22:47,959 Speaker 2: terrible happens. 2643 02:22:48,240 --> 02:22:48,600 Speaker 3: Nothing. 2644 02:22:49,080 --> 02:22:50,959 Speaker 2: Well, I've been promoting this and I think a lot 2645 02:22:50,959 --> 02:22:53,320 Speaker 2: of people have, but not everybody's in agreement. 2646 02:22:53,360 --> 02:22:54,959 Speaker 3: Where do you stand in the new twelve team? 2647 02:22:55,040 --> 02:22:55,160 Speaker 1: Oh? 2648 02:22:55,160 --> 02:22:55,880 Speaker 3: I love for Max. 2649 02:22:55,920 --> 02:22:58,160 Speaker 7: This is the best thing that's happened to college football 2650 02:22:58,320 --> 02:23:01,879 Speaker 7: in my lifetime. I've always known it as the biggest 2651 02:23:01,959 --> 02:23:04,240 Speaker 7: joke of a postseason in which the national champion was 2652 02:23:04,280 --> 02:23:06,640 Speaker 7: determined the same exact way as it was in gymnastics 2653 02:23:06,720 --> 02:23:10,959 Speaker 7: or figure skating, not objectively by essentially a committee of 2654 02:23:11,040 --> 02:23:15,039 Speaker 7: judges doing what they can to gauge how each team 2655 02:23:15,080 --> 02:23:16,960 Speaker 7: performed over the course of a season, but it was 2656 02:23:17,000 --> 02:23:19,959 Speaker 7: never determined on the field. Then we had the BCS, 2657 02:23:20,000 --> 02:23:22,199 Speaker 7: but of course that really wasn't a great system either. 2658 02:23:22,520 --> 02:23:25,840 Speaker 7: The only championship game I can recall during that era 2659 02:23:26,000 --> 02:23:29,360 Speaker 7: that actually made sense was Texas USC one and two. 2660 02:23:29,440 --> 02:23:32,480 Speaker 7: Otherwise it was controversy just about every other year. Then 2661 02:23:32,520 --> 02:23:34,560 Speaker 7: we get to the four team playoff and as we 2662 02:23:34,600 --> 02:23:37,760 Speaker 7: can remember last year Florida State. Yes, I know that 2663 02:23:38,240 --> 02:23:40,840 Speaker 7: their quarterback got injured, but they finished undefeated but missed 2664 02:23:40,879 --> 02:23:44,440 Speaker 7: the four team playoff. Now, with twelve teams in, it's 2665 02:23:44,440 --> 02:23:47,680 Speaker 7: hard to argue that anyone who misses the playoff was 2666 02:23:47,720 --> 02:23:50,440 Speaker 7: truly deserving of being in it. Now, I personally do 2667 02:23:50,640 --> 02:23:52,840 Speaker 7: like the idea of making it like March Madness. Give 2668 02:23:52,879 --> 02:23:55,280 Speaker 7: every conference an automatic spot. Didn't fill it out with 2669 02:23:55,280 --> 02:23:58,000 Speaker 7: that large, but to me, this is the next best thing. 2670 02:23:58,560 --> 02:24:02,200 Speaker 7: Twelve teams. Give all the power conferences plus one of 2671 02:24:02,280 --> 02:24:05,680 Speaker 7: the non power conference an automatic spot without large and 2672 02:24:05,920 --> 02:24:08,280 Speaker 7: fill out the field, and I'm ready for this chaos. 2673 02:24:08,360 --> 02:24:10,680 Speaker 7: Burdy I'm really ready for it. It's going to be 2674 02:24:11,040 --> 02:24:14,240 Speaker 7: the best college football postseason I think in history. 2675 02:24:15,280 --> 02:24:18,160 Speaker 2: Okay, I agree with pretty much all of that. I 2676 02:24:18,200 --> 02:24:21,879 Speaker 2: feel the same way, and I like the analogy whereby 2677 02:24:22,040 --> 02:24:25,840 Speaker 2: you compare the judgment call that the committee would make 2678 02:24:25,879 --> 02:24:30,160 Speaker 2: to you know, figure skating or gymnastics or whatever. Here's 2679 02:24:30,320 --> 02:24:35,200 Speaker 2: where people all you know already are complaining right now. 2680 02:24:35,320 --> 02:24:39,520 Speaker 2: BYU is with the number four team, which means they 2681 02:24:39,520 --> 02:24:42,119 Speaker 2: would get a buy and a home game even though 2682 02:24:42,120 --> 02:24:47,040 Speaker 2: they're ranked ninth overall, so technically they're ranked lower than Tennessee, 2683 02:24:47,520 --> 02:24:51,080 Speaker 2: who they'd be an underdog against Indiana, who they be 2684 02:24:51,320 --> 02:24:57,640 Speaker 2: an underdog against Penn State Texas and I believe Ohio State. 2685 02:24:57,680 --> 02:24:59,880 Speaker 3: Who's the other team? Who's you know? 2686 02:25:00,080 --> 02:25:03,720 Speaker 2: Because Oregon's leading to Big ten. I got a problem 2687 02:25:03,760 --> 02:25:06,880 Speaker 2: because this is championship based. So if you're pissed off 2688 02:25:06,879 --> 02:25:09,320 Speaker 2: the BYU's there because the Big twelve is there, then 2689 02:25:09,360 --> 02:25:14,120 Speaker 2: transfer to the Big twelve. Did the BYU ranking catch 2690 02:25:14,120 --> 02:25:16,039 Speaker 2: your eye all in any negative sense? 2691 02:25:16,680 --> 02:25:20,240 Speaker 7: Not really, although I do personally feel that it should 2692 02:25:20,280 --> 02:25:22,560 Speaker 7: be based on who the top actual teams are and 2693 02:25:22,560 --> 02:25:24,640 Speaker 7: they should be seeded according much like it is in 2694 02:25:24,720 --> 02:25:27,760 Speaker 7: March madness where the top teams are the number one 2695 02:25:27,800 --> 02:25:29,800 Speaker 7: seeds and they just go down regardless of who is. 2696 02:25:30,000 --> 02:25:33,720 Speaker 2: You don't have home games or buys in March madness. See, 2697 02:25:34,040 --> 02:25:38,840 Speaker 2: So that's what's changed this. I've always wanted the tournament 2698 02:25:39,120 --> 02:25:44,039 Speaker 2: quote unquote to be championship based, meaning win your damn 2699 02:25:44,040 --> 02:25:45,640 Speaker 2: conference and we'll go from there. 2700 02:25:45,879 --> 02:25:48,160 Speaker 3: And they're doing that here. But here's what's interesting. 2701 02:25:48,840 --> 02:25:51,160 Speaker 2: If you look at the committee's top twenty five rankings 2702 02:25:51,400 --> 02:25:54,879 Speaker 2: right now, BYU's ninth, but they'd be fourth in the 2703 02:25:54,920 --> 02:25:56,840 Speaker 2: tournament because they'll win the big twelve. 2704 02:25:57,400 --> 02:26:00,040 Speaker 7: You follow me, Yeah, And that's why I think it 2705 02:26:00,040 --> 02:26:03,120 Speaker 7: should be. It should really be based purely off of 2706 02:26:03,160 --> 02:26:05,720 Speaker 7: who the Now. I think a conference championship should be 2707 02:26:05,720 --> 02:26:06,760 Speaker 7: an automatic birth. 2708 02:26:07,240 --> 02:26:08,120 Speaker 3: But in regards to. 2709 02:26:08,600 --> 02:26:10,840 Speaker 7: But in regards to seeding, who gets the home game, 2710 02:26:10,840 --> 02:26:11,560 Speaker 7: who gets the buy? 2711 02:26:11,800 --> 02:26:11,959 Speaker 3: Ah? 2712 02:26:12,040 --> 02:26:14,400 Speaker 2: I see what you're saying. Yes, ah, okay, you make 2713 02:26:14,440 --> 02:26:18,640 Speaker 2: a good distinction there. So you're fine with the all 2714 02:26:18,720 --> 02:26:22,880 Speaker 2: the conference champions getting it automatic beats regardless of the record. 2715 02:26:23,120 --> 02:26:24,680 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean you have to give him a 2716 02:26:24,720 --> 02:26:27,080 Speaker 2: buy and a home game exactly, all right, you know what, 2717 02:26:27,160 --> 02:26:31,240 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised Kevin if they don't, it's a committee. 2718 02:26:31,320 --> 02:26:33,600 Speaker 3: They don't go back to the drawing board. And uh, 2719 02:26:33,959 --> 02:26:34,240 Speaker 3: I don't know. 2720 02:26:34,280 --> 02:26:35,480 Speaker 2: If think I don't know what the buy laws are, 2721 02:26:35,480 --> 02:26:37,640 Speaker 2: I would be surprised if they go back and give 2722 02:26:37,640 --> 02:26:41,400 Speaker 2: this a quarter turn. I maybe make that alteration. All right, good, excellent, 2723 02:26:41,840 --> 02:26:42,600 Speaker 2: share your thoughts. 2724 02:26:43,280 --> 02:26:44,640 Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, but Kevin kind of I mean, he 2725 02:26:44,640 --> 02:26:45,920 Speaker 10: didn't take it out of my mouth, but when I 2726 02:26:45,959 --> 02:26:47,400 Speaker 10: was listening to him, I wish I was able to 2727 02:26:47,440 --> 02:26:49,920 Speaker 10: think of something like that, because seriously, like that's when 2728 02:26:50,040 --> 02:26:51,800 Speaker 10: it comes down to it. That seems like the way 2729 02:26:51,840 --> 02:26:52,200 Speaker 10: to do it. 2730 02:26:52,240 --> 02:26:53,520 Speaker 3: And and like. 2731 02:26:53,520 --> 02:26:56,440 Speaker 10: In terms of pros and cons, I I kind of 2732 02:26:56,480 --> 02:26:59,440 Speaker 10: just see only pros in terms of the new college playoff, 2733 02:26:59,560 --> 02:27:03,600 Speaker 10: like in terms of more teams being involved. Obviously there's 2734 02:27:03,600 --> 02:27:06,360 Speaker 10: gonna be complaints no matter what, because some teams won't 2735 02:27:06,360 --> 02:27:08,400 Speaker 10: make it in some will and that's gonna happen no 2736 02:27:08,400 --> 02:27:11,200 Speaker 10: matter what, and that was happening last year with Florida. 2737 02:27:11,320 --> 02:27:14,480 Speaker 10: But it's it's just I like it because on top 2738 02:27:14,520 --> 02:27:19,000 Speaker 10: of that, the longer path will kind of make it 2739 02:27:19,040 --> 02:27:22,720 Speaker 10: where it's a real true champion. Well, we'll see a 2740 02:27:22,760 --> 02:27:24,960 Speaker 10: lot of teams just have or get hot. Well, not really, 2741 02:27:24,959 --> 02:27:27,760 Speaker 10: but they'll get hot, they'll have good three games, and 2742 02:27:27,760 --> 02:27:30,240 Speaker 10: then they'll win the championship, but then with a longer path. 2743 02:27:30,280 --> 02:27:31,760 Speaker 10: I just kind of like it just because they have 2744 02:27:31,800 --> 02:27:34,120 Speaker 10: to do more. You'll see them more, and in terms 2745 02:27:34,120 --> 02:27:37,200 Speaker 10: of just high quality football, they'll be doing it back 2746 02:27:37,240 --> 02:27:38,920 Speaker 10: to back to back. So I think that's just gonna 2747 02:27:38,959 --> 02:27:42,400 Speaker 10: be fun for viewers as well as athletes. The buys 2748 02:27:42,480 --> 02:27:44,600 Speaker 10: obviously do bring up an issue. There's gonna be just 2749 02:27:44,760 --> 02:27:46,960 Speaker 10: I feel like it's just gonna another thing that people 2750 02:27:46,959 --> 02:27:49,720 Speaker 10: can argue about and just get annoyed about. But in 2751 02:27:49,760 --> 02:27:52,800 Speaker 10: the end, I really liked Kevin's idea. 2752 02:27:52,959 --> 02:27:55,760 Speaker 2: You will have at least earned your buye. I mean, 2753 02:27:55,840 --> 02:27:58,960 Speaker 2: that's the way that's gonna work right now as of today, 2754 02:27:59,400 --> 02:28:04,280 Speaker 2: even after Saturday's results, you know, check that prior to 2755 02:28:04,280 --> 02:28:09,440 Speaker 2: Saturday's results, Oregon BYU Georgia and Miami will you know 2756 02:28:09,480 --> 02:28:12,560 Speaker 2: it would have earned bys. So that's why I think 2757 02:28:12,600 --> 02:28:16,520 Speaker 2: the regular season. This playoff format makes the regular season 2758 02:28:16,640 --> 02:28:21,520 Speaker 2: even more meaningful as well, because you're playing for position, 2759 02:28:21,600 --> 02:28:25,080 Speaker 2: you're playing for home field advantage, you're playing for a buye, 2760 02:28:25,680 --> 02:28:26,879 Speaker 2: and after. 2761 02:28:26,800 --> 02:28:28,959 Speaker 3: Go to Mark, I'll go to some of these matchups. 2762 02:28:28,560 --> 02:28:30,320 Speaker 2: Where they'd be and you can't tell me this is 2763 02:28:30,360 --> 02:28:33,640 Speaker 2: just going to do Baffo TV ratings Mark, you got 2764 02:28:33,640 --> 02:28:34,240 Speaker 2: the last word. 2765 02:28:35,160 --> 02:28:37,680 Speaker 11: Well, just based on what I'm hearing, it just sounds 2766 02:28:37,720 --> 02:28:41,240 Speaker 11: like I guess if you have two losses, it doesn't 2767 02:28:41,360 --> 02:28:43,240 Speaker 11: even it doesn't matter, you could still get in. 2768 02:28:43,320 --> 02:28:44,680 Speaker 3: And well, it depends if when. 2769 02:28:45,240 --> 02:28:47,800 Speaker 2: If you have two losses, you'd better have won your conference. 2770 02:28:48,560 --> 02:28:52,160 Speaker 2: But if you've won your conference, then the two loss 2771 02:28:52,840 --> 02:28:56,880 Speaker 2: aspect won't matter because there's twelve spots and all powerful 2772 02:28:57,000 --> 02:28:58,879 Speaker 2: conference champions are getting a bid. 2773 02:28:59,240 --> 02:29:01,280 Speaker 11: I guess I just like the idea, like what you 2774 02:29:01,280 --> 02:29:03,760 Speaker 11: guys have been talking about. If you win your conference, 2775 02:29:04,240 --> 02:29:08,320 Speaker 11: when your conference and only two losses, whoever gets in 2776 02:29:08,320 --> 02:29:09,920 Speaker 11: and gets in and they can all fight it out 2777 02:29:09,920 --> 02:29:12,800 Speaker 11: and there's a bunch of games and everybody should be happy. 2778 02:29:14,480 --> 02:29:17,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you look at these matchups, all right, So 2779 02:29:17,520 --> 02:29:20,920 Speaker 2: Oregon right now is the number one seed overall. If 2780 02:29:20,920 --> 02:29:23,880 Speaker 2: the season would have ended today, which it didn't. Through Saturday, 2781 02:29:24,600 --> 02:29:28,280 Speaker 2: Oregon would be waiting for the quarterfinal matchup against the 2782 02:29:28,320 --> 02:29:32,880 Speaker 2: winner of Indiana, who would visit Tennessee. Indiana's currently ninth 2783 02:29:33,600 --> 02:29:39,840 Speaker 2: Tennessee's eighth. The winner would travel to Oregon prior to Saturday, 2784 02:29:39,879 --> 02:29:43,560 Speaker 2: the number two seed was Georgia. They would have been 2785 02:29:43,560 --> 02:29:46,040 Speaker 2: waiting at home to play the winner of Notre Dame, 2786 02:29:46,080 --> 02:29:48,480 Speaker 2: who would have traveled to Penn State. Notre Dame's currently 2787 02:29:48,640 --> 02:29:53,280 Speaker 2: tenth ranked team, Penn State seventh Miami before they lost, 2788 02:29:53,320 --> 02:29:56,400 Speaker 2: and they still may be Okay, we'll see what happens Tuesday. 2789 02:29:57,280 --> 02:30:00,760 Speaker 2: Miami would be in their quarterfinal matchup at home, waiting 2790 02:30:00,760 --> 02:30:04,160 Speaker 2: for the winner of Alabama Texas. The game would be 2791 02:30:04,160 --> 02:30:07,280 Speaker 2: played at Texas because Alabama was an eleven seed and 2792 02:30:07,320 --> 02:30:10,600 Speaker 2: Texas is a sixth seed. And here's where my theory 2793 02:30:10,680 --> 02:30:14,840 Speaker 2: of play the damn thing on the field. Boise State 2794 02:30:14,879 --> 02:30:18,640 Speaker 2: would visit Ohio State. Do I think Boise State would 2795 02:30:18,640 --> 02:30:22,800 Speaker 2: beat Ohiose State in Columbus. No, but the winner of 2796 02:30:22,840 --> 02:30:25,879 Speaker 2: that game, let's presume it's Ohio State, they'd have to 2797 02:30:25,920 --> 02:30:29,640 Speaker 2: travel to BYU to play BYU in the quarterfinals. He'd said, well, 2798 02:30:29,680 --> 02:30:33,279 Speaker 2: they're going to kill BYU. Well, theoretically they should. Theoretically 2799 02:30:33,360 --> 02:30:36,640 Speaker 2: they might, but we have seen massive upsets in the past. 2800 02:30:37,320 --> 02:30:41,840 Speaker 2: We have, and I'm gonna I'm not gonna go through 2801 02:30:41,840 --> 02:30:46,000 Speaker 2: a history lesson right now and list them all, but BYU, 2802 02:30:46,040 --> 02:30:48,360 Speaker 2: and their school history has frankly been a giant killer. 2803 02:30:48,640 --> 02:30:50,760 Speaker 2: Now do I really think they'd beat Ohio State. No, 2804 02:30:51,160 --> 02:30:56,480 Speaker 2: But rather than theoretically surmise it, like Kevin said, just 2805 02:30:56,640 --> 02:30:59,840 Speaker 2: treat it as if it's an ice skating tournament or 2806 02:31:00,360 --> 02:31:04,599 Speaker 2: you know, gymnastics, where they scores and the results become subjective. 2807 02:31:05,760 --> 02:31:09,600 Speaker 3: This is objective. You've got to beat them on the field. 2808 02:31:10,440 --> 02:31:14,080 Speaker 2: So then the four quarterfinal games, they're not played at 2809 02:31:14,120 --> 02:31:17,720 Speaker 2: campus sites. Those four games, which will be scheduled New 2810 02:31:17,800 --> 02:31:20,720 Speaker 2: Year's Eve and New Year's Day, will be played at 2811 02:31:20,720 --> 02:31:24,320 Speaker 2: the Fiesta Bowl, the Rose Bowl, the Peach Bowl, and 2812 02:31:24,360 --> 02:31:29,120 Speaker 2: the Sugar Bowl. The four highest ranked conference champions will 2813 02:31:29,120 --> 02:31:31,600 Speaker 2: be signed one of those bowls because they want to 2814 02:31:31,640 --> 02:31:36,280 Speaker 2: pay homage and honor the historic bowl relationships as well 2815 02:31:36,320 --> 02:31:39,200 Speaker 2: as seeding so they'll feel more normal. Then all of 2816 02:31:39,240 --> 02:31:41,760 Speaker 2: a sudden, you got the four quarter final winners. They're 2817 02:31:41,760 --> 02:31:43,440 Speaker 2: going to meet at the semi finals of either the 2818 02:31:43,440 --> 02:31:46,120 Speaker 2: Orange Bowl or the Cotton Bowl. That's January ninth and 2819 02:31:46,240 --> 02:31:49,800 Speaker 2: January tenth. If those seeds hold, one would meet four, 2820 02:31:49,920 --> 02:31:52,760 Speaker 2: two would play three. The two semi final winners then 2821 02:31:52,760 --> 02:31:56,959 Speaker 2: play on Janual. On January twentieth, tell me that's not 2822 02:31:57,000 --> 02:32:00,840 Speaker 2: going to be a big day. That's a Monday, that's 2823 02:32:00,840 --> 02:32:04,640 Speaker 2: Martin Luther King Day. That's the Presidential long Augeration Day, 2824 02:32:05,320 --> 02:32:10,920 Speaker 2: January twentieth, that will culminate a month long tournament. I 2825 02:32:10,959 --> 02:32:14,240 Speaker 2: think this is gonna be incredible, and I don't know 2826 02:32:14,280 --> 02:32:17,320 Speaker 2: that people are gonna argue. And I hate it when 2827 02:32:17,320 --> 02:32:19,800 Speaker 2: people go on the radio and say, well, you know, 2828 02:32:19,879 --> 02:32:22,000 Speaker 2: you got twelve teams. People gonna argue you could put 2829 02:32:22,040 --> 02:32:24,680 Speaker 2: twenty four teams. Someone's still gonna argue you. That's not 2830 02:32:24,720 --> 02:32:28,120 Speaker 2: true because the arguments are specious. This is decided on 2831 02:32:28,200 --> 02:32:31,279 Speaker 2: the field. That's the beauty of this. When your conference 2832 02:32:31,280 --> 02:32:34,720 Speaker 2: and you're in after that, win as many games as 2833 02:32:34,760 --> 02:32:37,840 Speaker 2: you can, have the highest seed, you can have quality wins, 2834 02:32:38,160 --> 02:32:38,720 Speaker 2: and you're in. 2835 02:32:39,360 --> 02:32:40,720 Speaker 3: This is not gonna be subjective. 2836 02:32:41,240 --> 02:32:43,920 Speaker 2: Last year, Florida State would have been in even if 2837 02:32:43,959 --> 02:32:47,800 Speaker 2: their quarterback went down because they won the ACC And 2838 02:32:47,840 --> 02:32:50,560 Speaker 2: the bottom line is, while it's presumed Florida State might 2839 02:32:50,600 --> 02:32:54,120 Speaker 2: not have faredwell, we're never gonna know. And that's the 2840 02:32:54,200 --> 02:32:57,600 Speaker 2: thing coming up that Bernie Fraddles show continues. 2841 02:32:58,160 --> 02:32:58,959 Speaker 3: I'm Bernie fraddle. 2842 02:32:59,000 --> 02:33:01,440 Speaker 2: We are coming to live from the Las Vegas, Fox 2843 02:33:01,440 --> 02:33:03,920 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, Tirec dot Com studios.

We are just nine minutes away from the 2848 02:33:18,000 --> 02:33:20,640 Speaker 2: dance sensation sweep in the nation. What kind of brand 2849 02:33:20,640 --> 02:33:23,400 Speaker 2: new fool are you? Followed by? 2850 02:33:23,800 --> 02:33:24,680 Speaker 3: What my name? 2851 02:33:25,160 --> 02:33:27,240 Speaker 2: By the way, just but it couldn't get any worse 2852 02:33:27,280 --> 02:33:31,240 Speaker 2: for the Cowboys. Dak Prescott the sixty million dollar man. 2853 02:33:31,320 --> 02:33:34,640 Speaker 2: Divide that by three wins twenty million dollars a win 2854 02:33:35,520 --> 02:33:40,760 Speaker 2: for Jerry Jones, He's planning to undergo season enduring season 2855 02:33:40,920 --> 02:33:45,600 Speaker 2: ending surgery on his partially torn hamstring, according to reports 2856 02:33:45,600 --> 02:33:46,440 Speaker 2: this past week. 2857 02:33:46,800 --> 02:33:47,959 Speaker 3: I guess he's gonna meet. 2858 02:33:47,800 --> 02:33:50,360 Speaker 2: With another specialist to get a final opinion before going, 2859 02:33:50,959 --> 02:33:54,720 Speaker 2: you know, getting the operation. And if he gets the operation, 2860 02:33:54,879 --> 02:33:59,640 Speaker 2: he'll be sidelined for four months. If he ops against surgery, 2861 02:33:59,640 --> 02:34:02,200 Speaker 2: he'll be six to eight weeks, just in time for 2862 02:34:02,480 --> 02:34:04,360 Speaker 2: the Cowboys to not make the playoffs. 2863 02:34:04,800 --> 02:34:07,160 Speaker 3: It's been a pretty more abund year. 2864 02:34:07,240 --> 02:34:10,880 Speaker 2: Nineteen hundre yards passing eleven touchdowns, eight interceptions. They're three 2865 02:34:10,959 --> 02:34:16,000 Speaker 2: and five. Looks like Cooper Rush will start. Trey Lance, 2866 02:34:16,840 --> 02:34:21,240 Speaker 2: a guy who was once acquired when the team traded 2867 02:34:21,280 --> 02:34:23,400 Speaker 2: for three first round draft picks to get him. 2868 02:34:23,800 --> 02:34:25,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, how'd that work out? 2869 02:34:25,400 --> 02:34:27,800 Speaker 2: The Cowboys storyline is one to watch. I mean, they're 2870 02:34:27,760 --> 02:34:31,520 Speaker 2: returning home. But in twenty twenty four, I mean, going 2871 02:34:31,600 --> 02:34:34,760 Speaker 2: into this season, they'd won like sixteen straight home games. 2872 02:34:35,480 --> 02:34:38,560 Speaker 2: Now the Cowboys are on and three. After those sixteen 2873 02:34:38,640 --> 02:34:41,880 Speaker 2: straight regular season wins at AT and T Stadium, they've been 2874 02:34:41,879 --> 02:34:45,560 Speaker 2: outscored by sixty six points. The Cowboys have in those defeats. 2875 02:34:45,760 --> 02:34:48,960 Speaker 2: They won't have Dak Prescott Sunday. Big Dan deal, you 2876 02:34:49,040 --> 02:34:54,640 Speaker 2: weren't winning with him anyway. Interestingly enough, Cooper Rush is 2877 02:34:54,760 --> 02:34:58,200 Speaker 2: five and one as a starter in the NFL in 2878 02:34:58,240 --> 02:35:02,439 Speaker 2: his career. Came in twenty twenty two against the Eagles, 2879 02:35:03,120 --> 02:35:05,840 Speaker 2: who the Cowboys are conveniently playing Sunday. Got picked off 2880 02:35:05,840 --> 02:35:10,280 Speaker 2: three times that day, and you know, I think, well, 2881 02:35:10,320 --> 02:35:12,480 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two is the last year Cooper Rush even 2882 02:35:12,520 --> 02:35:16,960 Speaker 2: started in a game. Interestingly enough, also, this makes no sense, 2883 02:35:17,000 --> 02:35:21,080 Speaker 2: but it doesn't matter. There's no context to this. Running 2884 02:35:21,080 --> 02:35:23,520 Speaker 2: Back Saquon Barkley is zero to ten in his career 2885 02:35:23,520 --> 02:35:26,800 Speaker 2: against the Cowboys. Of course, all those losses came when 2886 02:35:26,840 --> 02:35:29,439 Speaker 2: he was a member of the New York Football Giants. 2887 02:35:30,000 --> 02:35:32,959 Speaker 2: He's got a much more talented group in Philadelphia. They 2888 02:35:33,040 --> 02:35:36,640 Speaker 2: flourished through eight games. Barkley has been everything as advertised, 2889 02:35:37,320 --> 02:35:39,960 Speaker 2: averaging almost six yards of carry, ranked second in rushing 2890 02:35:40,040 --> 02:35:44,280 Speaker 2: yards per game, only behind Dereck Henry. And remember, he's 2891 02:35:44,280 --> 02:35:47,800 Speaker 2: coming off that electric game and that hurdling reverse hurdle 2892 02:35:48,120 --> 02:35:53,040 Speaker 2: against Jacksonville should be an interesting game. The AJ Brown 2893 02:35:53,240 --> 02:35:55,040 Speaker 2: is dealing with an injury, but he's back. They're in 2894 02:35:55,080 --> 02:35:57,640 Speaker 2: a great spot. I hate to say it, this just 2895 02:35:57,680 --> 02:36:00,720 Speaker 2: feels like a thirty one to fourteen Eagles win. I 2896 02:36:00,720 --> 02:36:04,640 Speaker 2: don't even know if the Cowboys can score fourteen. We'll 2897 02:36:04,640 --> 02:36:06,959 Speaker 2: see who the brand new fools are speaking of that 2898 02:36:07,600 --> 02:36:10,440 Speaker 2: we are just six minutes away. What kind of brand 2899 02:36:10,440 --> 02:36:12,960 Speaker 2: new fool? You followed by? What my name? 2900 02:36:13,160 --> 02:36:15,720 Speaker 3: Keep it locked. You're listening to the Bernie Frattle Show 2901 02:36:15,920 --> 02:36:17,640 Speaker 3: on Fox Sports Radio.
