1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: Welcome to the show. Oh, we got a lot to 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: talk about today. Because Greg Sanki, SEC Commissioner, he's saying. 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 2: The quiet part out loud. 4 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: He said the messy future of college football. Nah, I'm 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: gonna explain to you what he really means between that. 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna read between the lines about what he means 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: by MESSI it means we're losing control. Marcus Freeman, head 8 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: coach at Notre Dame. He got to talking about his team. 9 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: JD Picquel asked him about the past and why they 10 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: did not go to the bowl game, and I loved 11 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: his accountability answer. 12 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 2: And I'm gonna show you why. 13 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: Recruits love playing for him, parents love playing form, why 14 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: they don't get de commits, and what's going right at 15 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. Dan Lanny over there at Oregon he talks 16 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: about the NIL because remember there's a lot of people 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: accusing Oregon of all sorts of things. Oh, they're buying 18 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: all these players and all this, but when it comes 19 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: to the forty million dollar rosters, they're never mentioned. So 20 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: he's talking about NIL and the broken system and what 21 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: should be done to fix it. So either he's a 22 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: hypocrite or he's trying to be on the forefront of 23 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: some change in college football, and I'll tell you which 24 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: one it is. And also Dion Sanders, he takes a 25 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: major stray from his old quarterback, and we're gonna get 26 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: into is this fair or is this foul? And then 27 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: we have the big twelve win totals. Those we're gonna 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: go and predict who goes over, who goes under, who 29 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: goes to the college football playoff and everything in between. 30 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: And then finally it is top ten time today and 31 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: it is our foot ball movies of all times. So 32 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: you guys, make sure that you guys enjoy that. Make 33 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: sure that you like, subscribe, share, tell a friend about 34 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: the sho show and get notifications. 35 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: Go ahead and do it right on now. 36 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: The way the show can continue to grow because we 37 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: are out here doing big thing. Before we get all 38 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: the way into it, go visit Underdog Fantasy, where you 39 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: have a chance to secure fifty dollars in entries when 40 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: you play your first five dollars using promo code Unafraid. 41 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: And also the link is in the bio. Here's what 42 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: we got today. So Greg Sankie, SEC Commissioner. He talked 43 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: about the future of college football, the future of college football. Oh, 44 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 1: it's messy. It's messy, And he's one hundred percent right. 45 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: It is messy for those who are in charge because 46 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: it is very easy for him to look at and 47 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: foresee the future. He knows that collective bargaining is likely coming. 48 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: That means the SEC loses power. You're probably eventually going 49 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: to have pulled media rites, which means that there's going 50 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,519 Speaker 1: to be negotiating with somebody else. Enforcement power is going 51 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: to somebody else. So that's what he's saying when these 52 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: top college football commissioners are saying the future is messy, 53 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: it's uncertain. Yes, it's uncertain for those in power right now. 54 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: And he's saying, we don't control what's going on right now. 55 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: The NC DOUBLEA and the conferences, they used to have 56 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: the power, and now it's the courts and market forces 57 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: which are driving everything that is happening. And they have 58 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: to find a way to get back not on the 59 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: offensive instead of being on the defense and playing from 60 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: behind and trying to fix things that the courts have 61 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: already done. So right now, the NC DOUBLEA is essentially 62 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: irrelevant when it comes to punishment. It is it is 63 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: an enforcement in anything else, no enforcement power, particularly about 64 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: anything that actually matters. There's no unified rules, there's no 65 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: legal protections for them, and the conferences are making their 66 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: own rules, and so are the states. That's the biggest 67 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: is that you have states making laws saying that you 68 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: can't even investigate their schools in Missouri and Tennessee for violations. 69 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: The schools haven't even signed the College Sports Commission, which 70 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: is supposed to have enforcement power, So there's no enforcement 71 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: power there. And this is what Greg Sankie is talking about, 72 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: because there's only one possible solution. I've said this over 73 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: and over and I'm hoping that people can hear it 74 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: and fully invest in it. College football is an enterprise. 75 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: It has to be led by one single entity. 76 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 2: That's it. 77 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: Who is always going to do what is best for 78 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: college football. 79 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 2: That's it. 80 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 1: Do what's best for college football, not what's best for 81 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: the SEC or the Big Ten, or the Big twelve 82 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: or the ACC. No, you have to do what's best 83 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: for everybody, and if that means raising the floor for 84 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: other teams and shrinking the ceiling for other teams, so 85 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: there is parody and competition, because all that's going to 86 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: do is that these lines instead of having twenty eight 87 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: point games in conference lines. In conference games, those are 88 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: gonna go down to ten. 89 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 2: Eleven, twelve. Those are better. 90 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: That means that you're gonna have a bigger variance of outcomes, 91 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: which makes quality television. 92 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: Just telling you. 93 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: And the SEC, and Greg Sankie knows the SEC is 94 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: also outside of the outside market forces. They are feeling 95 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: that Big Ten pressure because all of this is not 96 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: happening in a vacuum. The Big Ten has more money, 97 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: their schools do more living alumni at a few of 98 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: the schools, a bigger footprint across the country, and stronger 99 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: media leverage when it comes to Fox and all of that. 100 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: Now they don't have the ESPN where ESPN has the 101 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: majority of college football games as far as ESPN and ABC, 102 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: and then they can control a lot of the narratives 103 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: with the talking points and the people that they hire 104 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: to be on television. 105 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 2: But that's about it. 106 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: The results on the field are showing that the Big 107 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 1: ten's a better conference. So he sees that, and just 108 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: like when any of the other negotiations happened, the SEC 109 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: was like, listen, we've done all of these things, so 110 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: we should get more playoff spots. Now the Big ten 111 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: is like, we just won three to three in a row, baby, 112 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: but you've had more playoff spots than we had, so 113 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: maybe we need more playoff spots. And then the Big 114 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: twelve and the accre like, hold on what happens when 115 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: we come along? See, this is why the floor needs 116 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: to be raised for everybody. Ceiling needs to shrink for 117 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: the other teams. And you're still gonna have teams go undefeated, 118 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: one lost, two losses, win a national championship, but you're 119 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: gonna have a bigger variance of who's able to do that, 120 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: which is better for all of college football. 121 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 3: Right. 122 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: The next thing up we had, Dan Lanning got to 123 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: talking about some of this. Oregon's head coach. He called 124 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: out nil enforcement and I love this. And there are 125 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: people at the rival schools like Washington USC who are 126 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: responding to this, and they're sitting here wondering. They're like, 127 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, how is he gonna talk about this? 128 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: So that means that a choice has to be made. 129 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 2: Either. 130 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: You believe on one hand that Dan Lanning is a hypocrite, right, 131 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: but this is not what people say about him that 132 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: know Dan Dan Lanning recruits players none of that other coaches, 133 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: So you got to kind of throw that out the window. 134 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: Or maybe he just wants to understand what the rules 135 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: are and live under those rules, because his point is, 136 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: don't tell them that there are rules if nobody following 137 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: the rules, and then if nobody's following the rules, nobody's then. 138 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: Enforcing the rules. 139 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: So if you're a parent and you say, hey, kids, 140 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: your curfews eleven o'clock. Kid rolls in at eleven thirty, 141 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: you don't even say anything. Kid rolls in at midnight, 142 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: You're like, hey, you're supposed to be here at eleven. Yeah, whatever, 143 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: kid rolls in at ten thirty, I'm at eleven fifteen. 144 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: Nothing said, or you're like, yo, you gotta be in 145 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 2: the house at eleven. 146 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: If there are no consequences ever doled out, is anybody 147 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: gonna follow a rule that they don't want to follow. No, 148 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: absolutely not. And the real issue is competitive integrity. You 149 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: got forty million dollar plus rosters Texas, Texas, Tech, LSU, 150 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: and a few other places Ohio state forty plus million 151 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: dollar rosters compare to teams with fifteen million dollar rosters 152 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: when the salary cap for everybody's supposed to be under 153 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: twenty two million dollars? How does that work? And then 154 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: you got the Big Ten out here? Think about this. 155 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: I want you guys to see this because this this 156 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: made me literally laugh yesterday when I saw this article 157 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: that I'm gonna put up, I almost fainted. I almost 158 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: fainted when I saw this. The Big ten is let 159 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: me move this. The Big ten is pushing for a 160 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: new roster retention carve out that would allow schools to 161 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: go over the cap in order to re sign players. 162 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 2: What cap? 163 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: What cap are we referring to? What cap are we 164 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: referring to? Because how is there a cap? If Ohio 165 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: State's got a forty million dollar roster, if Oregon's got 166 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: a twenty nine million dollar roster, or a twenty five 167 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: million dollar roster, whatever it is, how's there a cap? 168 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: If LSU's got almost a fifty million dollar roster? How 169 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: is there a cap there? And they're trying to operate 170 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: it like this. This is the NBA. It's like the 171 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: bird rights? What bird rights? You're you're just signing players 172 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: to whatever you want to sign them to. Anyway, Why 173 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: on earth do if there's no enforcement, how does this 174 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: even matter? 175 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 2: Come on, man, it is. 176 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: Clear, and I almost fell out of my seat laughing 177 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: when I saw that allow them to go over the 178 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: cap to resign their players. 179 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 2: What now? 180 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: I get the intention of it, because the intention is 181 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: that the that if you're staying within your your twenty 182 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: one and a half million dollars I think it is 183 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: for this year for your revenue sharing for all of 184 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: your sports, and then you need and then one of 185 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: your players balls out and you need to resign them, 186 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: then yeah, you can go over the cap. 187 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: I get the premise. 188 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 1: But when nobody's adhering to an actual cap right now, 189 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: and they're using shoe companies lear Field and other companies 190 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: and their corporate sponsors to sign multiple players to NIL 191 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: deals to go over the cap. 192 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: What are we talking about? 193 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: And mind you, we're talking about pay for play that 194 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: is masked as in IL two separate things, all right. 195 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: The next thing that we got to talk about Marcus Freeman, 196 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman, Notre Dame head coach, was on with JD. 197 00:11:55,360 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 2: Piquel and I love this and the thing that he 198 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 2: detailed here. 199 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: Was exactly why recruits love him, why their parents love him, 200 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 1: Why Notre Dame isn't getting decommits right now? 201 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 2: Because this is an accountability program. He is. 202 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: He understands like he's not doing what Texas did last year. 203 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: Think about what Texas did. Oh my gosh, they loved 204 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: us under coach Football Playoff. Maybe we should take Ohio 205 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: State off the schedule. That's the reason why not the 206 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: Florida lost, not your other loss, No, that that's the 207 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: loss that got you. Marcus Freeman understands that the Miami 208 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: game and the text saying m game losing, those kept 209 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: him out of the College FOOTBA Playoff. Nobody else's fault, 210 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: nobody else's fault, personal responsibility. And the USC game. They 211 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: know that they got to beat USC, and now USC 212 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: is off of their schedule. 213 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: All right. So here's what Marcus Freeman had to say. 214 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 3: Everyone wants to ask about the way the season ended 215 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 3: in the selection committee and all those questions. 216 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 4: Just blame somebody else for the situation that we were in. 217 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 4: And I believe, like you sleep in the beds you make, 218 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 4: you know the God is fair. 219 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 3: Right, and we left out. 220 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 4: We left out, So don't blame somebody else for the 221 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 4: situation that we were in. And know that, Hey, we 222 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 4: got to remember that as we continue to prepare for 223 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 4: this year. You know, there's certain times you pull that out, 224 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 4: you remind them of the pain of that situation in 225 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 4: that moment, but it's just reminded, hey, that we have 226 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 4: to leave no doubt. In order to do that, you 227 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 4: got to leave no doubt today. You have to leave 228 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,239 Speaker 4: no doubt in this moment that you're doing the necessary 229 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 4: things to be the best version of yourself. And that 230 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 4: means we are trying to be the best version of 231 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 4: a team that we can be. And so you know, 232 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 4: it's just every once in a while you reach back, 233 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 4: but I think it's just a reminder to embrace the 234 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 4: moment you're in, like, that's how great things to me? 235 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: You know how good that is, How good that is 236 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: and refreshing it is to hear a head coach not 237 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: try to blame everybody else to or uh And then 238 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: that forces Notre Dame's fan base to get in line, 239 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: which is the most important thing because when you have 240 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: a head coach and I criticize Sark for this last year, 241 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: who I think is a good head coach, so no 242 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: knock against him as an actual person, but him complaining 243 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: about not getting in the college football playoffs. In the 244 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: Ohio State game, that then infiltrates your fans. Then your 245 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: fans start complaining, blaming everybody else. But when the leader 246 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: of the organization says, that's on us, that's on us. 247 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: We gotta be better. You know what, everybody's going to 248 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: be better. That's just the fact that they are going 249 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: to say, don't blame anybody else. 250 00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 2: And I love that. 251 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: I love that, love that love that my kid can 252 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: go play for a man like like that. That's what 253 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: you see out of a lot of the best coaches. 254 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: Kirby Smart ain't gonna make no excuses. Dan Lanny's not 255 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: gonna make no excuses, cursing that he's not gonna make 256 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: no excuses. Davil Sweeney's not gonna make excuses. And those 257 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: aren't the only coaches, but but but those are the 258 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: ones that we see out in front and on the 259 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: forefront the most and no excuses. Just like our old 260 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: strengthen conditioning coach Jimmy Radcliff's used to say, no excuses, 261 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: no messengers, no sympathy groups. 262 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 2: That's what it is, all right. 263 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: Next thing up, Dion Sanders overreck Colorado. He just took 264 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: a major straight from his former quarterback, a kid he 265 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: recruited out of high school. Well, that was recruited out 266 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: of high school to Colorado. He Dion gets the job, 267 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: stop stays committed. And this is the kid I've seen 268 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: since he was in high school because he went to 269 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: Sierra Canyon left and with West Ranch played very well, 270 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: and then he got a chance to play some last 271 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: year for Colorado. Didn't work on it all that well. 272 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: But now he's over at Tennessee and he said something 273 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: that it was a straight to the Colorado coaches. It 274 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: was a straight to Dion Sanders. And we got to 275 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: unpack it and tell you what this really means. 276 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 5: And I mean, in my three years of or yeah, 277 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 5: three years of playing college football, I haven't had as 278 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 5: much coaching as I've had in the first month that 279 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 5: I've been here. So every time he pulls me to 280 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 5: the side after a rep and you know, talks to 281 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 5: me about my feed or my face or the way 282 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 5: my off arm was on the on the throw or 283 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 5: whatever happened on the rep. Like I mean, it's it's cool. 284 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 5: It's a lot of special coaching. It's I haven't been 285 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 5: coached this much. And again, I'm just trying to learn 286 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 5: as much as I can and improve. 287 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: That don't sound good right now. 288 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: On one one hand, there's probably a little bit of 289 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: player scoring, you know in there. It didn't work out 290 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: at Colorado, But maybe he feels like the reason why 291 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: I didn't work at Colorado because it was coaching. Deon 292 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: Sanders has had so much turnover in the coaching staff, 293 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 1: multiple offensive coordinators, and it is fair to look at 294 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: the situation. And I'm a guy who wants Deon to 295 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: be successful. I hope he does. I believe that he 296 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: does his best to raise good, good men, to turn 297 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: out good leaders, and that them becoming better people is 298 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: actually even more important than football to him, and trying 299 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: to help them the best way that he can't. I 300 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: believe all of those things. I also believe that Dion 301 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: Sanders high school recruiting is going to be the death 302 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: of the program. You can't just live in the transfer portal. 303 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: You can't have a revolving door of coaches and players 304 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: every single year. It is impossible to instill your culture. 305 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:04,959 Speaker 1: It is impossible to instill your beliefs in such a 306 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: small period of time, like you need the majority of 307 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: your roster there four years, two three years, all of 308 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: them cycling through cycling through. That's how you keep your 309 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 1: culture good, That's how you keep your everything good. 310 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 2: So I love it. 311 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: I could not be any happier about what he's doing 312 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: in terms of off the field with the with the players. 313 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: But on the field, Colorado has to have results. They're 314 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: over under for their win total for this season is 315 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,239 Speaker 1: four and a half. Four freaking and a half. Do 316 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 1: you realize how atrocious that is? That is atrocious atrocious, 317 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: especially going into year four. They had success year year 318 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 1: one and then the bottom fell out. Then year two 319 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: they were they were better, and then it didn't end 320 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: well in their bowl game they got housed, and you 321 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: and and there you you had Shader Sanders and Travis 322 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: Hunter playing. So it's one of those things where some 323 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: of the criticism is fair and I'm gonna get called 324 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: a Dion hater and everything else. But I told you 325 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: all these good things about Dion, And this is where 326 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: I believe we have to get to as a society 327 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: and a culture and fandom and all of this stuff. 328 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: Is that on one hand, we can say I support 329 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: this guy, like him, support this. 330 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: Team, I like him. 331 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: Then on the other hand, yeah, this is an area 332 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: of improvement that needs to happen. And if Deon Sanders 333 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: fixes his high school recruiting and gets on the road, 334 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: this dude can sell water to a well, he can 335 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: sell ice in a winner, he can sell fire in hell. 336 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: But you got to get in front of people to 337 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 1: do that.

Is a bad thing. 387 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 3: Couple of things on that number one, easy money. Everybody's 388 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 3: gonna retweet you.

Also, your audience is not 390 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 3: reading that. Your your supposed intended audience, These high school kids, 391 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,360 Speaker 3: they're not reading that. It's just a bunch of coaches 392 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 3: being like, oh, oh my gosh, is this really happening, 393 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 3: And everybody's retweeting, and everybody's patting themselves on the back. 394 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 3: If you're not good enough to play high school to 395 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 3: play college football, and you're a high school football player. 396 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 3: Lie go full George O'Leary to Notre Dame and just lie. 397 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 3: There is no consequence that is going to dip below 398 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 3: your reality. There's what's gonna happen, George. 399 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: You get exposed on the on the internet and embarrassed. 400 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 3: This isn't like that kid who committed to cal put 401 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 3: the cow haat on it didn't actually have a scholarship. 402 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 3: Who's going to be a. 403 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: Difference, Ralph, You're sitting here lying about your highlights. You're 404 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: putting something up and be like my senior year highlights. 405 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 2: That is a lie. 406 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 3: But you can't. But there is not a crime. 407 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 2: Of course, it's not a crime. 408 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 3: It's not any different than somebody who's six one and 409 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 3: a half putting six four on their max preps. There's 410 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 3: no difference at all. 411 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 2: That's outrageous too. 412 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: Half an inch at the very most, anything over half 413 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: half an inch, you are. 414 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,239 Speaker 3: Full of it. But here's a deal, like it is 415 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 3: the recruiter's job to verify at a bare minimum, Lying 416 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 3: and catching lies is going to help refine the process, 417 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 3: make it better, make sure that lazy recruiters don't do 418 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 3: as well, and the people who do their due diligence 419 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 3: do better. It's I don't see any downside to this. 420 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 3: Number one, it's funny. It's objectively funny to see somebody 421 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 3: run a two point eight forty on their huddle highlights. 422 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 3: Dad's hilarious. More of that, please. Number two. If you 423 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 3: are not going to go to college to play football 424 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,479 Speaker 3: because you are not good enough, You're still not going 425 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 3: to go to college to play football because you're not 426 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 3: good enough, but you might waste somebody's time. You might 427 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 3: have a funny story later in life. Number three. If 428 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 3: you pull this off, then you get your foot in 429 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 3: the door. You give yourself an opportunity, your Frank Gobygnally 430 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 3: from catch me. If you can't, it's it. If it's 431 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 3: a situation where somebody could get hurt, should never never lie. 432 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 3: If it's a situation where you're you're just like trying 433 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 3: to trick the system, that is pretty standard for the 434 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 3: process of how people get recruited. You hear all these 435 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 3: stories all the time of like how a band got discovered, 436 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: you know, like I think there was a story about 437 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 3: no doubt, like they bought their own music video to 438 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 3: be played on local TV. They got a ten thousand 439 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 3: dollars investment, and then they just paid for their own 440 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 3: video to get played over and over over this people 441 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: got used to the song. 442 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: So is this so okay?

And I know that people are freaking out, 508 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: But before that, we will explain to you how we 509 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: got here, well how I got here. Ralph will probably 510 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: shoot holes in a lot of this. But first up, 511 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:25,239 Speaker 1: the team over and under. Their Their win total this 512 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: year at Ralph is eleven and a half. Eleven and 513 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: a half. 514 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 2: And there's a lot of people who are upset about this. 515 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: Because they're they're they're they're talking about Texas Tech schedule 516 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: is not that great. But overall though, I find it 517 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: very interesting the win totals Ralph because you got eleven 518 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 1: and a half and then nobody at ten and a half, 519 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: nine and a half, and then a couple of eight 520 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: and a halfs What does that say about the Big twelve. 521 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 3: And then it got there? It took it too many 522 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 3: Pac twelve teams and the snake eating its tail lives. 523 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 3: That's what it says to me. 524 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: Okay, that makes sense, all right, So let's get into it. 525 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: So first team Texas Tech, they are predicted to go 526 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: and they got eleven and a half Ralph eleven and 527 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: a half, and their toughest game is going to be 528 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: at I don't even know where Ralph at where, Like, 529 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: what game could Texas Tech possibly lose because they are 530 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: one of these forty million dollar rosters. They got Abilene, Christian, 531 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: Oregon State, Houston, Sam, Houston State, Yes, Sam Houston, Colorado, 532 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: Arizona State, Cincinnati, Arizona, West, Virginia, Oklahoma State, Baylor, and 533 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: TCU Ralph. It does not feel like there is any 534 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: team that they can lose to outside of like Arizona 535 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 1: State maybe, and. 536 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 3: Even then, they're playing at home in Arizona State. The 537 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 3: last time they went out there they lost to Kiki 538 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 3: kot fantastic schedule, just could not have lined up any 539 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 3: better for them. This is going to be This has 540 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 3: the potential to be a very very special season. Eleven 541 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 3: and a half is a lot to the point where 542 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 3: I wouldn't actually put any of my money on it. Yes, 543 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 3: but if you had to say, you know, they absolutely 544 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 3: have the chance to have twelve thirteen wins this season. 545 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 3: And yeah, the addition of Brendan Soresby is cool, but 546 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: let's remember they got an entire running back room full 547 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 3: of sophomore studs. Yeah, Cameron Dicky is one of them. 548 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 3: Cameron Dickie was a monster in high school on both 549 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 3: sides of the ball. The physicality that he runs with 550 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 3: to see Texas Tech running the ball like this, from 551 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 3: Taj Brooks to Cameron Dickie and and even Quintin Joiner 552 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 3: is going to be in that room this year. They're 553 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 3: going to be so good. This schedule lines up so well, 554 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 3: even if they do have to travel, they run the 555 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 3: ball well. I don't think a ton of it's going 556 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 3: to be on on Brendan Soersby, even though they forked 557 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 3: up the money to make sure that he was their guy. 558 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 3: I don't think they actually needed to do it with 559 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 3: this schedule, this roster. But they're planning for a deep 560 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 3: run in the college football playoffs, so maybe it makes 561 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 3: sense to drop six mil on a quarterback. 562 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, And truthfully, they're in a good spot to go 563 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: back to back Big twelve champs, and I don't think 564 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: that there's anybody that can really contend with them. Is 565 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: that bear outside of the team that we're going to 566 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: that is picked to finish second, right, Yeah. 567 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 3: I mean if you can, if you can run the 568 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 3: ball and keep it close, then you can compete with them. 569 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 3: But they're great at home, and they're gonna be physical 570 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 3: and they're gonna be fun. It's gonna be tough, all right. 571 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: The next team up is BYU Ralph. BYU, they're over 572 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: under for their win total is eight and a half. 573 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: This feels until you look at their schedule, it feels 574 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: a little bit disrespectful because they do have Notre Dame 575 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: on the schedule and Notre dames win total for the 576 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: year is eleven and a half. 577 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 2: Right, So. 578 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: You're looking at BYU and how do we find wins Ralph? 579 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: How do we find well? Because because I got them 580 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: at nine wins and the over. 581 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 2: But they could get to I think they could get 582 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 2: to ten wins. 583 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,760 Speaker 1: But I do think that that Utah game Arizona state 584 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 1: that those could be tough games. Oh oh oh and 585 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: Arizona two. Arizona cannot be slipt on. 586 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 3: I agree with you. The thing that makes this BYU 587 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 3: team potentially special to me is their offensive line. I 588 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 3: think the youngest oh lineman going into the season for 589 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 3: them is going to be twenty two. I think they 590 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 3: have They have the potential to start four red shirt seniors. 591 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 3: They're big, they run the ball well, Bear Bachmeyer picks 592 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 3: up first downs by any means necessary. They're going to 593 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 3: be missing Parker Kingston. He's not coming back, and so 594 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 3: big playability could be the thing that puts them in 595 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 3: a situation to lose a game here and there if 596 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 3: you're down late in the game. But we saw bear 597 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:57,240 Speaker 3: Bachmeer work some clutch magic last year. So at this point, 598 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,800 Speaker 3: I think you got to buy in on on BYU 599 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 3: being a really good challenger to that win total, and 600 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 3: I think it would just be sensible to pencil them 601 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 3: in if you're making predictions to have a rematch in 602 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 3: the Big Twelve Championship. 603 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this feels this, This feels like a two 604 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,959 Speaker 1: horse race. But the interesting thing about the Big Twelve, though, 605 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: is is that you've had pretty much a surprise team 606 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: kind of pop up and be good every single year. 607 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 2: So we'll see what we get out of that. All right. 608 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: The next team that we have up is the utah 609 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:42,800 Speaker 1: Utes ralph The utah Utes now now their win total 610 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: is eight and a half. Now, originally originally we had 611 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: them at eight and four, well sorry, at nine to three, 612 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: But now I think that that eight and four is 613 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: probably more realistic. I think that they're going to have 614 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: tough games against Arkansas, BYU, Arizona and TCU. I think 615 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: that those are going to be their biggest challenges over 616 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 1: there at Utah, and they got a new head coach, 617 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: first time head coach in Morgan Scalley. I don't think 618 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: that that's going to necessarily go perfectly in his first year, 619 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: and I think that that's going to create a little 620 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: bit of a rub for them. 621 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 3: My issue with Utah this year and where I think 622 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 3: they could really possibly fall apart, is it is very 623 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 3: Utah to keep things in the family right. Kevin mcgiven 624 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 3: as an offensive coordinator higher I don't think matches the 625 00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 3: innovation that they brought in last season. I think that 626 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 3: the innovation that they brought in last season served Devin 627 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 3: Dampier well, it served that team incredibly well. And if 628 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 3: Kevin mcgiven is coming in and he's trying to be 629 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 3: traditional or even vanilla, then they're going to be in trouble. 630 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 3: They got to make use of the talent that they 631 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 3: have on this team, especially at quarterback. So I'm very, 632 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 3: very worried. I'm very worried about Utah's offense, but I 633 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 3: think their defense is going to keep them in a 634 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 3: ton of games. 635 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, this Utah team, they're obviously and clearly 636 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: a very good football team. But when you get down 637 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: to it, there's so much change happening, so much change happening. 638 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: I think that it is naive to look at them 639 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: and think that losing Kyle Whittingham in terms of being 640 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 1: a leader and everything else, that that's not going to 641 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: have a significant impact on this team. 642 00:38:59,400 --> 00:38:59,720 Speaker 3: Agreed. 643 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: Next team up, the Arizona Wildcats. They they're over under 644 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 1: for win. Their win total is seven and a half. 645 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: We like them at nine, Ralph, we like them at nine, 646 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 1: and I am I could not be any more excited 647 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: about this team because you know who nobody's talking about that. 648 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: Nobody's talking about Noah Fafita at quarterback. When people put 649 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: it putting out their top quarterback list, nobody is talking 650 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:38,320 Speaker 1: about Noah Fafeda. It's like, it's like that the twenty 651 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: twenty four season when they lost their head coach, Jeffish, 652 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: when they lost te ma Ac and some other Ephesians, 653 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: Price SoC and Jonah Coleman and autumn dudes, that they 654 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: forgot what happened the year before, and then a year 655 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: of adjustment, a year of getting better, and now Noah 656 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: Fafiedo Ralph should be talked about. And this schedule, to me, 657 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: is pretty manageable they get out. So they got Northern 658 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: Arizona and n IU and in the preseason those are 659 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 1: winnable games. In Northern Illinois just lost their head coach. 660 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: Then they played Washington State. Now that game's in Pullman 661 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be be facing a little jitterbug quarterback 662 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 1: and Cayden Pinnock who transferred from UC Davis. But then 663 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: Cincinnati at West Virginia, Iowa State Texas, Like this feels 664 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: like a team that can get out of their ralph 665 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 1: with with either nine wins or seven wins, Like there 666 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: doesn't because if they lose, because it is possible to 667 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,919 Speaker 1: lose to Utah, Kansas State could be better. Arizona State. 668 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 1: They in the season on a five game run like 669 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,479 Speaker 1: they could be seven and zero and then finished nine 670 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: and three. 671 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. My thing with University of Arizona is if you 672 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 3: believe the complaints that people had about Indiana, they're like, oh, 673 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 3: we just can't be out here compete with these twenty 674 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 3: three twenty four year olds. Arizona got some age on 675 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 3: this team. Ismael Maddy is a red shirt senior. Chris 676 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 3: Hudson is still on this team. George what quick? Chris 677 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 3: Hudson that went to Oregon. I think so. I think 678 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 3: he's another year of eligibility. Javin Wattley, who we talked 679 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 3: about as one of our number one most underrated players 680 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 3: last year coming to the transfer portal, I thought he 681 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 3: only had one year of eligibility left. He's still listed 682 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 3: here on the depth chart. And they've got some extremely 683 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: talented players like Tray Spivey. Offensively, I think they're gonna 684 00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,280 Speaker 3: be really good. The entire left side of the offensive 685 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 3: line is mature. They got some tight ends that have 686 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 3: a ton of experience. Noah Fafiitaz started probably more games 687 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 3: than anybody in the Big Twelve. They're gonna have consistency 688 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 3: in their system from year to year. The real question 689 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 3: with this team comes down to are they able to 690 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 3: replace what they lost defensively, especially in that defensive backfield. 691 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 3: But they've moved to run in the even with somebody 692 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 3: who traditionally runs the three three five there, they got 693 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 3: multiple defenses they can adjust. I'm a huge fan of 694 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 3: Danny Gonzalez. They could be a very very dangerous team, 695 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 3: or they could have one injury at quarterback and fall 696 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 3: off a cliff. So the variance in this team I 697 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 3: think is huge, but the maturity on offense is going 698 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 3: to make this a very, very explosive roster. Totally agree. 699 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: All right, now, I want to go over to Arizona 700 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: State because Arizona State, obviously they were the darlings a 701 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 1: couple of seasons ago, last year, well when they made 702 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: the college football playoffs two years ago. Last year, devastating 703 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:09,319 Speaker 1: injuries all over the place and particularly a quarterback, and 704 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 1: you lose Sam Sam Levitt, he hops into transfer portal. 705 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: Now you're getting Cutter Bowlie over from Kent Kentucky, and 706 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: you hope he's your starter. 707 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 2: I guess right. 708 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, they got Mikey Kean if it doesn't work out, 709 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 3: I mean they've tried to make sure they have a 710 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 3: high floor. 711 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 712 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 1: So with six and a half being the over under Ralph, 713 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 1: it's hard for me because they do have Texas A 714 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,879 Speaker 1: and M, which I do believe that that's probably gonna 715 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: be a win for Texas A and M. But if 716 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: they beat Texas A and M, all bets are off 717 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: for the rest of the season. 718 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 2: All bets are off. 719 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 1: So I'm actually hoping that that does happen because I 720 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 1: want Kenny Dillingham, who just had another baby to be 721 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 1: successful because he wanted to stay at Arizona State. So 722 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 1: what Arizona State fans be happy with an eight and 723 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: four season this year? 724 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 3: Row It depends on whether or not the offense looks 725 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,399 Speaker 3: ugly like it did for a lot of the time 726 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 3: last year. When you say like, oh, we're going to 727 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,959 Speaker 3: have you know, we had Sam Levitt who was getting 728 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 3: a lot of hype, not necessarily the hype you and 729 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 3: I bought him too, as far as him being the 730 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 3: number one quarterback in the country and potentially a first 731 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,880 Speaker 3: round pick. But he did play well, he took him 732 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 3: to College Football Playoff. There was a lot of hype there. 733 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 3: And then you combine that with having the probably the 734 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 3: number one receiver that's going to get taken off the board, 735 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 3: a top three offensive tackle that's going to get taken 736 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 3: off the board. And the offense looked like garbage last year. 737 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 3: So as long as the offense looks functional and they 738 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,839 Speaker 3: continue to play like heroes at home, I think that 739 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 3: the fan base will be happy. Now if they go 740 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 3: off to London and they come back confused and out 741 00:44:55,719 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: of sorts and struggle against Baylor or struggle against Hawaii, 742 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 3: you know, then the fans are gonna be really upset. 743 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 3: But there's so many players on this team, and I 744 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 3: feel like, even close to the situation, I don't know 745 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 3: what to make of it. I don't know if a 746 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 3: Mario Miller is going to be the guy at wide receiver. 747 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 3: You don't know who's gonna play quarterback for them. You 748 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 3: don't know which running back is gonna step up. Hopefully 749 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 3: the defensive line, which is not healthy going into spring, 750 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 3: is healthy going into the season. Brian Ward is taking 751 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 3: kind of a more hands off CEO approach to the defense. 752 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,399 Speaker 3: He's been fantastic, But what adjustment, you know how that 753 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 3: affected to me. This is the biggest mystery team, and 754 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 3: it's the team I'm closest to. You just really don't 755 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 3: know who's gonna be on the field, and you want 756 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:42,920 Speaker 3: to trust Kenny Dillingham to make it all work. However, 757 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 3: last year the offense just at times looked lost, and 758 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 3: then they'd have performances like a two hundred and fifty 759 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 3: yards rushing out of Jeff Simms or you know, Jalen 760 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 3: Moss in the Bowl game going for one hundred and 761 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 3: fifty yards in the first half. You know they have 762 00:45:56,360 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 3: it in them. Can they be consistent? That a huge miss. 763 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 3: Reading this team, I think the fans would be happy 764 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,399 Speaker 3: with eight and four if the offense isn't dysfunctional. 765 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: Six and a half as their win total feels like 766 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 1: a layup. To me, I would take this. I would 767 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: smash this. This feels like found money right here. Next 768 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 1: team up, the Baylor Bears, Ralph. The Baylor Bears. They 769 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 1: are going to likely have Dj Lagway as their starting quarterback. 770 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: I put him on the potential transfer portal list this year. 771 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:37,879 Speaker 1: I'm looking at this list, Ralph, and I'm like, all right, 772 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:42,919 Speaker 1: Auburn game in Atlanta is gonna be tough. Arizona State, TCU, 773 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: b YU, Texas Tech, possibly UCF. And I mean, what 774 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 1: if Colorado this this has and if Kansas is any better? Ralph, 775 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: this has six wins written all over it? To me, 776 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 1: six or five. This feels like an easy under to 777 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 1: me for Baylor, and that means that this is going 778 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,359 Speaker 1: to be the end of David Randa's tenure there. 779 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 3: I mean, we've been saying that, but he hangs on, 780 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 3: and he hangs on. So the real question for me 781 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:22,839 Speaker 3: is the marriage of Jake Spabitol and Dj Lagway. Jake 782 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 3: Spabitol has a lot of credits. He helped, He helped 783 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 3: Jared Goff be a number one overall pick. He got 784 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:35,240 Speaker 3: a lot of success as a college football play caller, 785 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 3: as a quarterback, whisperer, whatever you want to call him. 786 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,360 Speaker 3: This group of receivers, is it enough, George, because I 787 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 3: don't think it's gonna be more talented than what DJ 788 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,839 Speaker 3: Lagway had at Florida. But I don't think. No, some 789 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 3: of that stuff was DJ Lagway's fault. It looked like 790 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 3: But Josh Cameron, Cole Wilson, Ashton Hawkins, you know that 791 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,360 Speaker 3: was a decent group in twenty twenty for Sawyer Robertson. 792 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,280 Speaker 3: But they're getting Draylon Miller from Colorado, They're getting Gavin 793 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 3: Freeman from Oklahoma State, hardly Gilmour from from Kentucky. Can 794 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:13,120 Speaker 3: they all mix in time to be an effective offense 795 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,440 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six? And then the big question is 796 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 3: who is responsible for this defense? It sucks lately, and 797 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 3: so is You don't want DJ Lightway to have to 798 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:25,800 Speaker 3: throw you back into a game. 799 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: No, No, Ralph, I'm looking at one game. What one 800 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: game that is on this screen is going to dictate 801 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 1: their entire season. That could either throw it completely off 802 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: the rails early. 803 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 3: Colorado at home. 804 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 2: Yep, if they. 805 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 1: Lose to Colorado at at home, it is it's over. 806 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 2: It's it's over. 807 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 1: The fat Lady is gonna be singing and like she's 808 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: she will be singing show tunes. She'll be up there, 809 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: Hello my baby, Hello, Mahn, Hello, Oma, Rag Tom, They'll. 810 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:03,839 Speaker 2: Be up there. 811 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:11,399 Speaker 1: It will be a disaster if that happens. So yeah, Oh, 812 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 1: next up a team. I'm excited about six and a 813 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:22,319 Speaker 1: half over under for them their win total, Ralph. They 814 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 1: were a disaster last year, a disaster, but they get 815 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 1: Drew Mestemaker and we're talking about the Oklahoma State Cowboys, Ralph. 816 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: I love the over at seven wins here. They're gonna 817 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: lose the Oregon in the non conference, but then Houston 818 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 1: is gonna be tough because they got a quarterback. Defense 819 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: is very good there. Iowa State they should beat Iowa 820 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: State or yeah, and then you got Kansas State, West Virginia. Ralph, 821 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 1: they might be able to find eight wins this year, 822 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,280 Speaker 1: might be able to find eight wins because they got Tulsa, 823 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 1: they got Murray State. Those are wins. Think that they're 824 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: gonna beat UCF, beat Colorado, beat Iowa State. That's five wins, 825 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 1: already beat Kansas that's six, and then they should be 826 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 1: able to take down West Virginia and if they Yeah, 827 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 1: this feels like seven wins to. 828 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 2: Me, Ralph. 829 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 3: How quickly we forget that Oklahoma State won for a 830 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 3: very long time. Yes, and they were competitive in the 831 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 3: Big Twelve for a very long time. And the thought 832 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 3: was when Oklahoma and Texas left the Big Twelve that 833 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:45,760 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State would be next up. Unfortunately, Mike Gundy didn't 834 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 3: necessarily adapt fast enough. This fan base is energized and 835 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:52,359 Speaker 3: excited for a new era and they have a hell 836 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 3: of a quarterback at the helm. I don't see him 837 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 3: getting the eight wins, but seven is within reach for sure. 838 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,239 Speaker 1: It's amazing how one year of being sorry can just 839 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 1: change everybody's perception about you totally. 840 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 3: Just yeah, And they get voted number one in twenty 841 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,320 Speaker 3: twenty four and then go zero to nine in conference 842 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 3: and it's you know, and then all of a sudden 843 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 3: people are like, yeah, they've always been bad. No, they're 844 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 3: like Florida State. They should have a much higher floria 845 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:21,880 Speaker 3: than they've displayed. 846 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: Yes, next team up TCU Ralph I okay, so their 847 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: their win total is six and a half as well, 848 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 1: I will feel. 849 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:34,919 Speaker 2: Like I will. 850 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:41,360 Speaker 1: I am excited about their Week zero game against North 851 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:45,399 Speaker 1: Carolina because the thing that people didn't understand about North 852 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: Carolina last year, amongst all the Bill Belichick should be 853 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 1: fired and everything else because of his personal life stuff, 854 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: which I thought made everything unstable and everything else. But 855 00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: this defense was good and that's the side of the 856 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 1: ball that he is good at. And then when and 857 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:10,760 Speaker 1: when you look at bringing Bobby Petrino over as offensive coordinator, 858 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: they're going to score points. So they are going to 859 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 1: be better on offense. Like there's no possible way that 860 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,440 Speaker 1: they are as bad as they were last year. So 861 00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:21,319 Speaker 1: if you put a good defense, and I know that 862 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 1: they graduated some players, but if you put a good 863 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 1: defense together with a competent offense, North Carolina is gonna 864 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:29,480 Speaker 1: get to eight games. 865 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 3: Probably. 866 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 1: This is going to be a competitive football team with 867 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 1: North Carolina. So TCU season and their trajectory, a lot 868 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 1: of it is gonna be based on this North Carolina game. 869 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 2: They gotta get this game. 870 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:52,720 Speaker 3: That is gonna be so interesting for the simple reason 871 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 3: of you're gonna have a Harvard quarterback in Jaden Craig 872 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 3: going up against the Bill Bellich check coach defense, and 873 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:08,080 Speaker 3: we'll see who's smarter, right Like, We'll see And I'm 874 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 3: assuming Jaden Craig gets that starting job because they brought 875 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 3: him over and he's had a lot of success in 876 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 3: the IVY League. This is a big step up. But 877 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 3: I feel like, well, no right away whether or not 878 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:21,320 Speaker 3: they have a functional quarterback, and I just I don't 879 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 3: imagine Sonny Dike's not being able to move the ball. 880 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 3: But I feel like Sonny Dikes is in a position 881 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 3: that a lot of these big twelve coaches are in 882 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 3: this year. You're probably on your last legs if you 883 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:34,880 Speaker 3: don't do something to impress, and that includes Cincinnati and 884 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 3: Baylor and several others in my opinion, are gonna you know, 885 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,759 Speaker 3: I think we'll know this year whether or not rich 886 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 3: Rod is gonna work in West Virginia because he has 887 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 3: fully retooled that entire roster in a matter of two years. 888 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 3: So I think that this game matters a lot for 889 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 3: Sonny Dike's future and for TCU's season. If they come 890 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 3: out and they look bad, they get dominated. Jaden Craig 891 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:05,080 Speaker 3: doesn't look like he could play at this level. Who knows, 892 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 3: who knows, we might we might be in interim. 893 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:09,800 Speaker 2: So do you like the over six and a half? 894 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 3: I think I think they'll be. I think they'll be 895 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 3: just a shade under. I don't have a ton of 896 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,399 Speaker 3: faith in this team. And but maybe Jade and Craig 897 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 3: is the answer. 898 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:24,120 Speaker 1: We'll see, yeh, all right, Cincinnati Ralph. Five and a 899 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:31,240 Speaker 1: half wins for the Bearcats, And obviously the Boston College 900 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: game is going to tell a lot about this football 901 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:37,839 Speaker 1: team because Boston College and Bill and Bill O'Brien, they were, 902 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, bro on, that was not a good 903 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 1: football team. Last last year at the end of the 904 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 1: season on c W Ralph, we had Boston College versus 905 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:57,719 Speaker 1: Syracuse Syracuse with no quarterback against Boston College. It was atrocious. 906 00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: It was just it was horrendous football. And uh yeah, 907 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 1: so I got I got Cincinnati under the five and 908 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 1: a half wins at five wins, but obviously they're gonna 909 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,720 Speaker 1: have some help with the with with Western Carolina and Miami. 910 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 1: They should win both of those games, but they could 911 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 1: mess around and well, my Miami and Ohio lost their 912 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:29,200 Speaker 1: head coach, which you know he because uh no, no, no, no, 913 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 1: no no, that was Ohio that lost their their their 914 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:36,759 Speaker 1: head coach, right with the uh with the with the 915 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 1: sh with with hotel. Yes, uh so you know, so 916 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 1: they gotta get Western Carolina and Miami obviously, and then 917 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:53,000 Speaker 1: from from there. Bro, this is not easy. This is tough, 918 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 1: tough sledging. You you you might get a break at 919 00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 1: Iowa State and Colorado, but yeah, I think it's gonna 920 00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,359 Speaker 1: be hard for them to get six wins this year. 921 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:08,320 Speaker 3: Yep. I think we are just five or six months 922 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 3: away from getting the Jason Kelce to Cincinnati. No coaching 923 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:16,520 Speaker 3: rumors for clicks for clicks, not at a real it. 924 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,840 Speaker 3: But I think we'll see some article. Maybe we'll be 925 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:20,959 Speaker 3: the one to put the article out. 926 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, the next team up, Ralph. This is actually sad 927 00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: they're over under is five and a half. But this 928 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 1: has been a much better team than that because of 929 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:37,840 Speaker 1: their head coach and now he's gone, and that is 930 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:45,400 Speaker 1: Iowa State. I do not see a world where Iowa 931 00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 1: State can win more than five and a half games. 932 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: The fighting Eddie George is over at Bowling Green could 933 00:56:55,000 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: be an issue for them. They're gonna lose to Iowa 934 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,359 Speaker 1: West Virginia. Running the football is probably gonna be tough. 935 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:09,720 Speaker 1: They're not gonna beat BYU or Arizona or Arizona State Baylor. 936 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:14,319 Speaker 1: And since he could be toss ups, UCF could be 937 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:18,439 Speaker 1: a toss up, can't There's nothing about this schedule route 938 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 1: for Arizona for Iowa State, considering that they lost like 939 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:27,360 Speaker 1: fifty players to the portal. And yes, you guys, some 940 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 1: Washington State kids come down and a good coach probably, 941 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: but this ain't it. 942 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 2: This is not it. 943 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to Iowa State being complete garbage this year. 944 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 3: I have been waiting twenty plus years for revenge over 945 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 3: head coach Jimmy Rodgers, who coached my rival, my high 946 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,120 Speaker 3: school's rival, or not coach. He quarterbacked my high school's 947 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 3: rival to a I don't know. He was not the quarterback, 948 00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 3: but he was on my high school's rival and won 949 00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 3: them a championship in their fifth year of existence. Meanwhile, 950 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 3: we had to wait like one hundred years to get 951 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 3: a championship, and it kicked off them beating us seventeen 952 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 3: times in a row. He was I think a one 953 00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 3: time teammate of Terrell Suggs. And so just a little 954 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 3: little high school football rivalry that Jimmy Rodgers isn't even 955 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:18,960 Speaker 3: aware of between me and him, and I didn't. 956 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 2: Even know you're mad, and he don't even know about it. 957 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 3: No, he has no idea. But I do believe twenty 958 00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,200 Speaker 3: twenty six is going to be the tax for making 959 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 3: me jealous for the last two decades. 960 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 1: All right, So next team up, the Kansas Jayhawks, Ralph, 961 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:37,000 Speaker 1: Kansas Jayhawks. First thing is, I want you to pay 962 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 1: attention to their schedule. They have more named games than 963 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 1: anybody has had. They're over under is five and a half? 964 00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 1: Actually hold up to go back for a second, I 965 00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,120 Speaker 1: will state five and a half. 966 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 2: I got him. 967 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: Under at four wins. Where do you have him at under? Okay, four, 968 00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,920 Speaker 1: I think four would be would show that Jimmy Rodgers 969 00:58:59,880 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: is a very good coach for what they have this year. Yeah, 970 00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 1: Kansas over uh, their total is over five and a 971 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 1: half wins. I got him at six wins, Ralph, I 972 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 1: got him at six wins. And isn't it crazy? Lance 973 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 1: Leopold was like he was a hot nam and coach 974 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:25,440 Speaker 1: in a couple of years ago. Loses his offensive coordinator 975 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:30,920 Speaker 1: Andy Kote, Nicki Andy Kotenicki goes to Penn State, nobody 976 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 1: likes what's going on there, and now he's back, right. 977 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:42,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they got the band back together. That he's 978 00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 3: not the de facto offensive coordinator. I think it's going 979 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 3: to be a co oc type deal. They have the 980 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 3: game in London. 981 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 5: Uh. 982 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 3: This is what I worry about when it comes to 983 00:59:54,080 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 3: Kansas football, is that that they're all like Baylor or 984 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 3: some of these other teams that were historically booty juice 985 01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 3: just terrible for a really long time, and they got 986 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 3: hot and they were able to get investment. But I 987 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 3: do wonder if it would have been better if lance 988 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 3: Leopold took one of these fifteen jobs that were he 989 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,600 Speaker 3: was supposedly tied to, because then they can get somebody 990 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,880 Speaker 3: in who can you know, envision shepherding it to the 991 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:29,000 Speaker 3: next level. Did lance Leepold catch lightning in a bottle? 992 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 3: Or are they going to be resilient or were they 993 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:34,440 Speaker 3: kind of beholding to loyalty to the Jalen Daniels experiment 994 01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:36,200 Speaker 3: over time? You know, are they going to be able 995 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 3: to bring in a quarterback who can get them to 996 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 3: the next level. We're gonna find out in London. We're 997 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 3: gonna find out with the SEC game early in the season. 998 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 3: They We're gonna find out at rice Eco Stadium on 999 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 3: October tenth. They they could legitimately be one in three 1000 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 3: heading into a rivalry game with Kansas State. If they're 1001 01:00:57,480 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 3: two and two, then anything's possible. If they're one and three, 1002 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,360 Speaker 3: then the wheels might fall off this season. 1003 01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:04,240 Speaker 2: I totally agree. 1004 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 1: But the one team I think that in the Big 1005 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 1: twelve that we talked about already that Wills could fall 1006 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:14,360 Speaker 1: off this year as Utah because there's so much change, 1007 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 1: Like the variance on what they could be is so 1008 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: big of a difference. 1009 01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, but they're not. They're not playing like garbage at 1010 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 3: rice Ecles. I don't think. 1011 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, correct, all right, But I do want to point 1012 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 1: out they have the Kansas has the Border Showdown with Kansas, 1013 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: the Union Jack Classic. I don't know how it's a classic. 1014 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:38,720 Speaker 1: It's the first time it's happening over in London, and 1015 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:40,600 Speaker 1: then they got the Sunflower Showdown. 1016 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:43,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I guess they can't be one and three 1017 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 3: because they got l i U and and Middle Tennessee. 1018 01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 3: But we'll see how things go for the Jayhawks. 1019 01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, A team that I'm not excited about 1020 01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: at all, and it could be because I'm not excited 1021 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 1: about their head coach at all, and I'm gonna be 1022 01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. There is a little bit of 1023 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 1: me here that is it's because of the coach, where 1024 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:11,720 Speaker 1: Like sometimes when you are excited about a coach and 1025 01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 1: his potential, you get, you know, like you might overestimate 1026 01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 1: a team a little bit, and the same works in 1027 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 1: underestimating a team. So we got UCF under five and 1028 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:29,880 Speaker 1: a half wins, and UCF decided to spin the block 1029 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,959 Speaker 1: with their head coach that left them high and dry, 1030 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:36,120 Speaker 1: and then when he didn't have anywhere else to go, 1031 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 1: he was like, yo, I'll come back in Scott Frost 1032 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 1: when he said I took the wrong job at Nebraska. 1033 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:46,439 Speaker 1: All right, well let's see what you do with UCF again, 1034 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 1: because last year wasn't it was just I And now 1035 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 1: you got, yeah, a five and a half win total, 1036 01:02:55,960 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 1: which I'm taking the under. I think that outside of 1037 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:05,440 Speaker 1: Badune Cookman Pitt is obviously gonna be tough. Georgia State 1038 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 1: they could lose that game. Then they got TCU at 1039 01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:12,440 Speaker 1: Houston at Oklahoma State. Both of those are going to 1040 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:18,080 Speaker 1: be formidable teams. B Yu, no chance, Baylor, who knows, Kansas, 1041 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 1: you know if? But then Arizona State, Yeah, they they 1042 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 1: better hope that Iowa State and Colorado are bad. 1043 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:31,960 Speaker 3: They didn't need consistency at quarterback. They have four guys 1044 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 3: start last year, and aren't they getting Alonza Barnett for 1045 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:38,320 Speaker 3: like his fifteenth year of college football? 1046 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 1: I think from James Madison the quarterback, Yeah, I think. 1047 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 3: I think that should bring them some stability if that's 1048 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:51,200 Speaker 3: the case. But they've had so much movement at quarterback 1049 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:55,960 Speaker 3: since they had their thirteen and oher run, it's been insane. 1050 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 3: I mean, I think about the fact that they at 1051 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,480 Speaker 3: one point had our guy from Florida State. They at 1052 01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 3: one point had Mikey Keane. You know they they now 1053 01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 3: and he has he has that. You know, They've they 1054 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:15,000 Speaker 3: at Ohio's starter park and Navarro who balled out the 1055 01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 3: last couple of years and I think got denied another 1056 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 3: year of eligibility. He was at UCF at one point. 1057 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 3: Your guy Dylan Gabriel was at UCF at one point. 1058 01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 3: They just they've never really had that consistency or that stability, 1059 01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:29,320 Speaker 3: and it looks like they might be on a one 1060 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 3: year rental this year. But what they really got to 1061 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 3: worry about is that early season trip to pitt Because 1062 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:36,360 Speaker 3: if things look ugly right out of the gate, then 1063 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 3: that that's a passionate fan base. They don't like to 1064 01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 3: be embarrassed. They expect to be functional by year two. 1065 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,080 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, and fun. And that's the thing that I 1066 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,960 Speaker 1: think that people have to remember is that it's not 1067 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 1: always winning that makes people, you know, excited at the 1068 01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:57,680 Speaker 1: beginning of a tenure. A lot of times it is 1069 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:02,400 Speaker 1: looking competent that they're like, Okay, I can see that 1070 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,760 Speaker 1: this is better. That we would normally get blown out 1071 01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 1: in these games, but now instead of it being with 1072 01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:12,840 Speaker 1: us losing by three touchdowns, we lost by seven, lost 1073 01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: by nine, and then field goal game and stuff like that. 1074 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 1: Those are the signs of progress, all right. Now, how 1075 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 1: about the progress for West Virginia and rich Rod. They're 1076 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:27,640 Speaker 1: over under his five and a half wins. Oh well, actually, 1077 01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 1: first Ralph UCF over under five and a half wins. 1078 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:34,680 Speaker 3: I think they'll be under. 1079 01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 2: Okay, West Virginia five and a half wins over or under. 1080 01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:46,040 Speaker 3: I like them over. I think rich Rod has turned 1081 01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 3: over this roster so much. I don't love that he. 1082 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 3: I feel like you found a quarterback in Scottie Fox 1083 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 3: by the end of the year last year. I don't 1084 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:56,400 Speaker 3: like that he recruited over him. But the pressure is 1085 01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:59,919 Speaker 3: there to win. He's very serious about it. The guy 1086 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 3: collects running backs like Daniels collects Infinity Stones. At one point, 1087 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:06,960 Speaker 3: some of these guys got to work out the offense 1088 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,960 Speaker 3: is gonna score points. You know that, that's true. The 1089 01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:14,000 Speaker 3: fact that they get to host Arizona is huge, and 1090 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 3: you know, the trip to Charlotte to play Virginia is 1091 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 3: we're gonna see, We're gonna see if you know. I 1092 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 3: don't know if they had the nil investment to be 1093 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 3: able to compete with Virginia, who does have money right now. 1094 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,280 Speaker 3: But if they win that game, there's gonna be a 1095 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 3: ton of hype around this team because you know that 1096 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 3: if they're winning and scoring. But it doesn't matter if 1097 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,919 Speaker 3: you win sixty to fifty, as long as you're getting wins. 1098 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 1: That is yeah, yeah, because that at least gives you 1099 01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:42,720 Speaker 1: time to fix things. Yeah, time is very important. You 1100 01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 1: justally need to buy some additional time. 1101 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 2: All right. 1102 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:51,360 Speaker 1: The last Big twelve team and Ralph two years ago 1103 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: could you imagine that we would have talked about this 1104 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 1: team last into Big Twelve, like if we were doing 1105 01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 1: a Big twelve video, Is there any way that this team, 1106 01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:05,920 Speaker 1: that the Colorado Buffalos, would be the last team that 1107 01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 1: we talked about. 1108 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 3: Some very specific things would have had to go wrong, 1109 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:13,920 Speaker 3: and I think we would have outlined those things. We 1110 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:17,440 Speaker 3: would have said that it's unlikely. But in that process, 1111 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 3: every single thing has has kind of gone wrong, in 1112 01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:25,320 Speaker 3: just you know, not being able to hang on to players, 1113 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 3: not being able to deliver on promises, not being able 1114 01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 3: to get good high school players in for good reason, 1115 01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:36,280 Speaker 3: not being able to have consistency at position coaches, or 1116 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:39,960 Speaker 3: have people who are legitimized in the eyes of college 1117 01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:41,840 Speaker 3: football want to come work for you, so you have 1118 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:44,360 Speaker 3: to go after guys who are trying to get their 1119 01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,360 Speaker 3: first shot, or guys who you know, had a cup 1120 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 3: of coffee or were really really good in the NFL. 1121 01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 3: All of those things would have had to occur, And 1122 01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:56,560 Speaker 3: it feels like that's what was happening. Why their entire 1123 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,200 Speaker 3: wide receiver room would bail. I mean, they got Danny Scaudero. 1124 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 3: That's a monster, but it's a five to nine monster. 1125 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 3: You know why is everybody leaving? Why don't people want 1126 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:11,280 Speaker 3: to stay? Why did Ryan stop go to or who's 1127 01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:15,320 Speaker 3: the quarterback that went to went to Tennessee and immediately said, 1128 01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:18,320 Speaker 3: I got more coaching here in a month than I got. 1129 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,400 Speaker 2: The last year Ryan stopped. 1130 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:25,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. It just feels like every bad possible thing that 1131 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 3: could have happened is happening. 1132 01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 2: Bro Okay. 1133 01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:34,840 Speaker 1: So when Dion originally said, I don't go on the 1134 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:39,600 Speaker 1: road we're recruiting because I don't you know, if I 1135 01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: go to one high school, somebody's mad. And this, first 1136 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 1: of all, he doesn't care about pissing people off. That's 1137 01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:49,240 Speaker 1: the That's the true. So either one and Dion is 1138 01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: not a lazy person. So either one of two things 1139 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 1: is true. Either Dion Sanders' health issues because he's had 1140 01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:00,639 Speaker 1: blood clots and if you're flying all over the place, 1141 01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 1: that can become an issue. So either he doesn't want 1142 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 1: to specifically say that my health doesn't allow me to 1143 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:12,599 Speaker 1: do this, okay, or he just doesn't want to do it. 1144 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:16,920 Speaker 1: Because the best coaches in college football beat the streets, 1145 01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:20,760 Speaker 1: they go visit recruits, they do home visits, all of 1146 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:25,120 Speaker 1: this stuff, there is no way to SUSTAINCT to sustain 1147 01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 1: success in college football without high school recruiting, there aren't 1148 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 1: enough good players that come out of the portal every 1149 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:36,840 Speaker 1: year in terms of you being able to rebuild a 1150 01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 1: roster every single year. There's too much in and out 1151 01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:46,400 Speaker 1: the door with coaches, and there's too much they need stability. 1152 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 1: And if I am there, and then the guy who 1153 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 1: hired Rick hired Dion Rick George, he's out at Ady. 1154 01:09:56,160 --> 01:10:00,959 Speaker 1: So now you wonder, like you, here are the numbers 1155 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: how much money is being generated and Boulder because of Dion. 1156 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:08,519 Speaker 1: They're sold out all of this stuff. But at some 1157 01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 1: point in time, the money's gonna fall off because you're 1158 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,960 Speaker 1: not winning. It can be all the hype, pomp and 1159 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 1: circumstance surrounding it, but you don't have any household names 1160 01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:25,599 Speaker 1: there right now, agreed, and so you're not gonna get 1161 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:30,840 Speaker 1: the level of attention that then attracts recruits. Ralph, this 1162 01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 1: is the the gotcha, gotcha year for Dion Sanders. He 1163 01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:38,920 Speaker 1: has to win. He has to win. They're over under 1164 01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 1: for this year. It's four and a half wins. And 1165 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 1: I am, honestly, I'm struggling to get over there, Like 1166 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:49,880 Speaker 1: I want Dion to be. 1167 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,040 Speaker 3: Successful and Brandon Marion. 1168 01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:58,200 Speaker 1: Yes, but Georgia Tech, bro, Georgia Tech is lining up 1169 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:02,760 Speaker 1: and knocking chin straps loose. You lost your defensive coordinator, 1170 01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:07,719 Speaker 1: you lost Warren Sap, you lost the running backs coach, 1171 01:11:07,880 --> 01:11:10,639 Speaker 1: Marshall Falk. And I'm not saying that those are necessarily 1172 01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:12,559 Speaker 1: the best coaches in the whole world, because they might 1173 01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 1: might might not have been. 1174 01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:13,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1175 01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,200 Speaker 1: I wasn't in the room, But what I do know 1176 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:19,800 Speaker 1: is switching up coaches all the time and retooling your 1177 01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 1: roster every single year is not a recipe for success. 1178 01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:28,240 Speaker 1: So Route four and a half wins, where do they 1179 01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:29,680 Speaker 1: find wins at? 1180 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 3: I don't see them, I really don't. Then they're gonna 1181 01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:41,639 Speaker 3: beat Weaver State, the probably beat Cincinnati. But this might 1182 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:45,679 Speaker 3: be his third three and nine campaign, George. 1183 01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 2: And if that's the case, do you keep Dion? If 1184 01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:50,520 Speaker 2: you are Colorado? 1185 01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 3: I think he'd move on. 1186 01:11:57,040 --> 01:12:02,680 Speaker 2: Out of out of pride, maybe. 1187 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, at a pride, or out of just self preservation. 1188 01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:09,599 Speaker 3: You don't want to get you know, you don't want 1189 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:11,160 Speaker 3: to go south like he's got. He's got enough to 1190 01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:15,240 Speaker 3: worry about, got sons in the NFL, he got everything 1191 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 3: he ever worked for is there for him to just enjoy. 1192 01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:24,120 Speaker 3: He's got health issues. I wasn't going to bring that up, 1193 01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:27,200 Speaker 3: but yeah, yeah, why you got a. 1194 01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:28,799 Speaker 2: Little public together. That's fine. 1195 01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:31,879 Speaker 3: He got a little Geico walk around money or affleck. 1196 01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,680 Speaker 1: So I'm hoping this works. I just don't see a 1197 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 1: way it works. I'm sorry to be the bear of 1198 01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:38,760 Speaker 1: bad news. 1199 01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:39,519 Speaker 3: All right. 1200 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 1: That is the big twelve rankings. Oh excuse me, let's 1201 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:50,080 Speaker 1: rephrase that. That is the big ten win totals and 1202 01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:53,799 Speaker 1: predictions for this year. We will get some more stuff 1203 01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:56,799 Speaker 1: later later on with our preseason rankings as the season 1204 01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:59,479 Speaker 1: gets gets closer. But that's where we're at right now 1205 01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:01,920 Speaker 1: because I've be things shake out in the spring. We're 1206 01:13:01,920 --> 01:13:04,240 Speaker 1: gonna see what happens in the portal everything else. But 1207 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 1: make sure that you guys like share, subscribe, get notifications, 1208 01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:08,599 Speaker 1: tell a friend about the show. 1209 01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:11,840 Speaker 2: And up next, it is top ten time. 1210 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:14,800 Speaker 1: You do not want to miss this Top ten time 1211 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:16,920 Speaker 1: football movies of all time. 1212 01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 2: Let's get to it. 1213 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 1: It is Top ten time today on the show. This 1214 01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:28,400 Speaker 1: time we got top ten football movies of all time. 1215 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:30,639 Speaker 2: We are gonna rank them one to ten. 1216 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:33,639 Speaker 1: I'll go first, Ralph will go second, until we get 1217 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:37,760 Speaker 1: up to ten, and these are the ten best movies. Now, 1218 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:41,200 Speaker 1: mind you, I do want to explain to you the rules. 1219 01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:45,840 Speaker 1: These are football movies. But apparently, according to what Ralph 1220 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,800 Speaker 1: has told us, he is taking some liberties with this. 1221 01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:51,800 Speaker 1: I guess the same way that people feel like die 1222 01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 1: Hard is a Christmas movie, which it is, Grimlins is 1223 01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 1: a Crimlin Christmas movie, which it is. So I'm going 1224 01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:03,040 Speaker 1: to give allows some leeway here. But are you excited 1225 01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:03,960 Speaker 1: and are you ready to go? 1226 01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:07,440 Speaker 3: Ralph? Yeah? I am. This actually made me very nostalgic 1227 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 3: and actually kind of sad because we don't make football 1228 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:14,240 Speaker 3: movies anymore. They used to make a lot of football movies. 1229 01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:17,680 Speaker 3: There's thirty two football movies. Some of them were musicals 1230 01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:20,880 Speaker 3: made between nineteen thirty and nineteen thirty nine. You know 1231 01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:24,080 Speaker 3: how many football movies we've got in the last ten years, George, 1232 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 3: not very many. Two are two football movies in the 1233 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:31,320 Speaker 3: last ten years, and one of them I would love 1234 01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:33,160 Speaker 3: to know if this runs a foul of your rules 1235 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,920 Speaker 3: or not. Is eighty for Brady Man. 1236 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 1: Oh, eighty for Brady. I actually liked eighty for Brady. 1237 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:42,320 Speaker 1: I will count that as a football movie. 1238 01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 3: The other one was Wow, The other one was a 1239 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 3: Kurt Warner story. The only football stuff they make now 1240 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,679 Speaker 3: are like thirty for thirties and documentaries and stuff. 1241 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:54,240 Speaker 1: I saw that too. I enjoyed the Kurt Warner movie too. 1242 01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:57,760 Speaker 1: So mind Ralph does not know my list, I do 1243 01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:01,439 Speaker 1: not know Ralph's list. I'm gonna start it off because 1244 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 1: the greatest football movie of all time must be acknowledged. 1245 01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:13,680 Speaker 2: Remember the Titans Left Side Strong Side. 1246 01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 1: It is a movie about overcoming it is there's plenty 1247 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:22,959 Speaker 1: of football in it that it is, got quotable lines, 1248 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:28,320 Speaker 1: you got quotable characters. It is just an absolute gem 1249 01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:33,080 Speaker 1: of a football movie greatness. It gets no better than that. 1250 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:37,439 Speaker 3: That's a perfect one one. And Ryan Goslin going on 1251 01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:40,640 Speaker 3: the New Heights podcast this week and acknowledging that he 1252 01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:43,200 Speaker 3: is a liability at Corner might be one of the 1253 01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:45,960 Speaker 3: best clips in the history of the Internet. So I 1254 01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 3: will give you that one. My number one is Varsity Blues. 1255 01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 3: And it's not that it's the best football movie ever made. 1256 01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 3: It's nonsense. It was really made for the kid who 1257 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 3: were sitting around watching TRL after school, the MTV generation. 1258 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:06,519 Speaker 3: In fact, I think that's who was It was really 1259 01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:08,559 Speaker 3: promoted by it might it might have been produced by MTV. 1260 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:13,000 Speaker 3: But the thing I love about that movie more than anything, 1261 01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 3: and of course ri I p Paul Walker rip James Vanderbeek, 1262 01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:22,320 Speaker 3: is that John Voight as Coach Kilmer is a top 1263 01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:25,559 Speaker 3: ten movie villain of all time. And if you got 1264 01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:32,559 Speaker 3: a kid, you got like, yeah, yeah, Coach Kilmer. That 1265 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:37,720 Speaker 3: man will take your scholarship to Brown So he is evil. 1266 01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:42,840 Speaker 1: Yes, Now, I will tell you Varsity Blues would not 1267 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:44,040 Speaker 1: have made my list. 1268 01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:47,599 Speaker 2: Okay, not even a little bit. All right? 1269 01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 1: Uh second, well sorry number three because that was number two. 1270 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 2: Number three Rudy. Now, I will. 1271 01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:01,639 Speaker 1: Tell you, Rudy Rudiger in this story. When it first 1272 01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:04,679 Speaker 1: came out, we didn't have all the information. I didn't 1273 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:08,519 Speaker 1: know that this was a truly fictional story, that people 1274 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:10,880 Speaker 1: didn't love him like that, they didn't lay out the 1275 01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:15,080 Speaker 1: jersey and you know that they take creative liberties. But 1276 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:20,200 Speaker 1: still the movie was awesome. And it's like wrestling. It 1277 01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:24,120 Speaker 1: is the nless you know the better. The more you know, 1278 01:17:24,280 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 1: it gets a little tougher. So but even though I 1279 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:32,800 Speaker 1: still love wrestling to this day, but Rudy, oh my god, 1280 01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 1: one of the best quotes of all time you're five 1281 01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:39,000 Speaker 1: foot nothing, one hundred and nothing and now a spec 1282 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:40,240 Speaker 1: of athletic ability. 1283 01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:48,960 Speaker 3: Love it, I am. We're on to number four now, yeah, 1284 01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:51,320 Speaker 3: I'm going with an easy one for number four. That 1285 01:17:51,479 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 3: is the movie version of Friday Night Lights Permian High 1286 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:03,800 Speaker 3: School Billy Bob Thornton Taylor kidch you know, was probably 1287 01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:07,160 Speaker 3: my favorite character in the TV version, But you do 1288 01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:12,800 Speaker 3: got to give the Billy Bob Thornton Roy Williams obviously 1289 01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:17,240 Speaker 3: with the appearance in the in the Buzz Bissinger adaptation. 1290 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 3: It's a great movie. Anytime it's on, I will sit 1291 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 3: through the entire thing. I think there are a lot 1292 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:28,920 Speaker 3: of better, more entertaining football movies, but this is just 1293 01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:34,120 Speaker 3: because high school football, to me is the purest, most 1294 01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:37,519 Speaker 3: important form of football, like that that you could put 1295 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:40,320 Speaker 3: those stories out there, So I think there's more entertaining 1296 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:42,600 Speaker 3: and better, but I think this one is foundational. 1297 01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:45,360 Speaker 1: I have a confession to make, Ralph, I have a 1298 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:48,120 Speaker 1: confession to make. I've never seen this movie. 1299 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:54,160 Speaker 3: I've never seen Rudy what I told you, and I 1300 01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:55,920 Speaker 3: have had an idea for his show for a long time. 1301 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:58,479 Speaker 3: We've never done it. First time, long time where I 1302 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 3: bring you a movie. You bring me in movie, this 1303 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:01,720 Speaker 3: should be our episode one. 1304 01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:05,880 Speaker 1: I like that, dude, I have not so, but I 1305 01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:10,040 Speaker 1: did watch the TV show from beginning to end every 1306 01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:12,519 Speaker 1: episode Friday Night Lights because you told me I needed 1307 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,599 Speaker 1: to watch it. And then sometime during COVID or something 1308 01:19:15,640 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 1: like that, I binge watched it and I. 1309 01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:19,560 Speaker 2: Was like, why didn't I watch this when it was 1310 01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:20,320 Speaker 2: on television? 1311 01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:24,599 Speaker 3: Who's your quarterback? Who's your quarterback? You got? You got? 1312 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 4: Uh? 1313 01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 3: And I'm talking fully healthy precsitalization. Do you go a Street? 1314 01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1315 01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:38,879 Speaker 3: Or do you over Michael B. Jordan? You don't like Runners, 1316 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 3: you don't like. 1317 01:19:41,200 --> 01:19:46,040 Speaker 1: Vince Okay, So if Street never gets hurt, then we 1318 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 1: don't even get a chance to experience Michael B. 1319 01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 3: Jordan. 1320 01:19:49,640 --> 01:19:53,439 Speaker 1: He's Tom Brady essentially. So I would be stuck with 1321 01:19:53,680 --> 01:19:57,400 Speaker 1: a great Drew Drew Bledsoe until I you know, until 1322 01:19:57,439 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 1: something happens. 1323 01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 3: Michael B. Jordan would have been after uh, definitely after 1324 01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:05,960 Speaker 3: the graduation of Street. But I don't know if coach 1325 01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 3: Taylor moves schools to coach See on the east side. 1326 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,760 Speaker 3: But all right, what's what is your what is your 1327 01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 3: number five? 1328 01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:20,240 Speaker 2: My number five?

It's a football business. 1448 01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,960 Speaker 1: A football movie, because you don't really matter how much 1449 01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:32,280 Speaker 1: football in the movie. It's about football, but it's not 1450 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:33,240 Speaker 1: a football movie. 1451 01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:38,000 Speaker 3: Fonte mac No matter what, all right, Dwick Boseman.
